Historical Cooloola

This image was an early Cooloola Coast visitor map that looks like it was a draft for tourism. I don’t know if it was printed. Laurie Ballard, one of the first residents at Rainbow gave it to me.

Other town maps were on it too. This map would be of interest to a lot of locals as the names of various fishing spots are shown. I can’t find a date for it but it also has a Rainbow Beach map on it. So, early eighty’s, I guess.

I thank you for all the support your publication has given the organisations I am involved in. I do like the way you have turned my articles into several throughout the paper. I am very appreciative of your ongoing support as free exposure for community issues is hard to get and your paper has been very accommodating to all the organisations and events I am involved in. I thank you deeply. Keep up the good work. Have an awesome day,

This testimonial is long overdue. I’ve used The RBCCCN in my classroom the last couple of years. In the subject History, students write a narrative about how the community remembers a past event.

Many of our questions are answered by the photo spread, for example: Who attends? Is there a significant site? What a… Read more

Visit Rainbow Beach magazine for New Zealand Heatley you guys have really turned out a magnificent booklet; I can’t believe it’s already printed. From a tourism perspective it will be very good for this place and definitely worthy of awards. Thank you and Michelle for your hard work, creative juices and pushing us along to be part of this. Hope there are lots of runons.
