Hold March 3, you have a month to get your friends or family together and make Australia beautiful. There are no sites registered yet for Rainbow Beach – but there are normally groups who collect rubbish at Inskip Point and along the Freshwater Track. Why not start your own, and let us know so we can help you get the word out?

Cooloola Cove

The Cooloola Cove Residents and Friends next major project will be Clean Up Australia Day. A poor turnup last year at the Cooloola Cove site has prompted the group to ask for more help this year.

We have been doing this for 20-odd years but so many CC locals have dropped out due to disabilities, and few replaced them.

Now we have many new people to the area, we want to ask them to come and join in and keep our area clean.

This year we are starting earlier to beat the heat. HQ is Centenary of Federation Parkin Mauretania Ave CC anytime from 7.30am. All volunteers must sign in / sign off to be covered by PLI.

Wear sensible clothing, hat, sunscreen, etc. Bottled water supplied, community BBQ included.  Numbers needed for catering (by Council) ASAP. This is a global event created by an Aussie, we can’t be the country with the lowest turnout!

Tin Can Bay

Join with the members of the Tin Can Bay Fishing Club and other volunteer groups in cleaning up Tin Can Bay and nearby areas. Everyone welcome to assist.

This year the Tin Can Bay Fishing Club will again be cleaning the parkland area between the foreshore and The Esplanade from Norman Point to the playground, plus the parkland area between the foreshore and Toolara Rd from the playground to Crab Creek.

We will also clean the Tin Can Bay Road from The Dolphin Centre to Rifle Range Road.

Registration will take place at 9am at the Tin Can Bay Fishing Club Marquee located adjacent to the children’s playground at Norman Point.  Please advise the secretary at least ten days prior via email if you intend to participate, for catering purposes as a BBQ lunch is provided for all volunteers. Clean-up bags and gloves provided to all volunteers, but you are requested to bring your own garden type gloves.

Contact the secretary on M: 0437 242-171 – all welcome.
