Local Dams Do Very Well From Recent Rainfalls
11-Mar-10: The South Burnett's Boondooma Dam is at 94% capacity and the Bjelke-Petersen Dam is at 40% capacity after last week's heavy rainfalls, according to Sunwater.

This Saturday 13th March:
Come Out And Celebrate What Makes
The South Burnett Really Great!
25th February 2010: Hello everyone! This coming Saturday 13th March the South Burnett will be holding it's much-loved Autumn festival: the 12th annual Wine & Food In The Park Festival at Memorial Park in Kingaroy.

Wine & Food In The Park is now the biggest Festival in the South Burnett Regional Council's area and the second biggest in the South Burnett as a whole (next to the Goomeri Pumpkin Festival).

And we're very proud to have been part of the Wine & Food In The Park Festival Committee for the last 9 years, helping to bring this great event to life each year and slowly building it into a major event that we can all be genuinely proud of (so proud, in fact, that many people now hold annual reunions for their friends and family there).

This year's Wine & Food In The Park has a great line-up of top entertainment; fantastic wines; mouth-watering foods; jaw-dropping cooking demonstrations by David Pugh and the team from Brisbane's famous Restaurant II in the annual PCA Regional Cuisine Cook-Offs; a brand new South Burnett Food Producers stand selling $10 platters of local gourmet finger foods to die for; and even an Art Exhibition.

But what this Festival is really all about is saying "to heck with the world" for a day, relaxing under the trees and enjoying the things that really matter in all our lives: good food, good wine and the wonderful company of the people who matter most to us. So we hope we see you there too!
