South Burnett tourism businesses have been invited to attend a consultation session this evening to learn more about the transition to a merged Toowoomba Golden West South Burnett Tourism and Southern Downs Granite Belt Tourism organisation.

The meeting, to be held at Taste South Burnett from 5:00pm-6:30pm, is part of a round of consultations being facilitated by Mark Olsen from EC3 Global.

TGWSBT CEO Mary Clare Power will also be in attendance to answer questions from stakeholders.

The purpose of the meeting is to broadly explain the direction and structure of the new merged association, outline options for the corporate “brand”, discuss industry “wants” and “needs”, and discuss funding.

Tourism operators who cannot make this meeting and who would like to provide input to the Transition Advisory Board have been invited to contact co-ordinator Albert Stafford by email
