The multi-media tribute will appear at the time of the event – September 6 and 7 – in both online and print versions of the masthead.
The family and friends of Christie Lyn Jones will remember the former Woodville woman as part of the tribute.
The young mother of three lost her battle with cancer in March this year, aged 34 years.
“Christie was amazing. She was strong-willed, feisty and she fought so hard every day,” Christie’s sister Melissa Rowe said.
“From the day she was diagnosed until the day we lost her, she never gave up.”
