South Burnett CTC - Working For Our Community
Ken O'Dowd Visit - Boondooma
Member For Flynn Ken O'Dowd will be wrapping up his flying three-day visit to the South Burnett today, where he's been hearing local concerns about any problems residents are having with Federal Government agencies, answering questions about Federal issues and providing an update on the upcoming Federal election. Mr O'Dowd's electorate stretches all the way to Gladstone and the South Burnett is at its extreme end, so he can't often be here in person. But today he'll be holding meetings at Boondooma Homestead over a barbecue lunch from noon to 2:00pm, followed by a meeting of the Durong-Proston branch of the LNP from 2:00pm to 4:00pm. Members of the public are very welcome to come talk with him.
Junior Blue Light 20th Anniversary Disco - Kingaroy
The third Junior Blue Light Disco for 2016 will be held at Kingaroy Town Hall in Glendon Street, Kingaroy this evening. Tonight's Blue Light is a special one because it marks the event's 20th birthday, and it will kick off with a free BBQ at 5:00pm. Other features at tonight's Blue Light are a bucking bull, face painting and a photo booth, and entry tonight is free as well. The Disco itself will run from 5:30pm to 9:00pm. Entry to the Junior Disco is restricted to young people aged 14 and below who can produce their student ID. Guests are also asked to remember that Blue Light Discos are drug, alcohol, chewing gum and tobacco free and no passouts or early exit will be given without parental permission and/or collection.
