In 2002 vierden de Engelse bellemannen het 'gouden' ambtstermijn van de Engelse Koningin Elisabeth.
En voor de gelegenheid werd er in het Canadese Markham een Stadsomroepers-concours georganiseerd.
                                                                  
Het 'Golden Jubilee Town Crier Competition' verwelkomde bellemannen en -vrouwen uit alle hoeken van de wereld : 
er waren deelnemers uit Nieuw Zeeland, Nederland, Polen, United States en Canada.
