South Burnett CTC’s mobile trailer of fun, “MERV”, is sporting a brand new look thanks to the talents of Cherbourg artists Les and Barbara Stewart.
The “Mobile Entertainment & Recreational Vehicle” now features traditional motifs all around as well as a strong anti-violence message.
Les and Barbara have been working on the artwork over the past three weeks.
MERV’s exterior makeover also includes the installation of new wheels and tyres.
Inside, it has also enjoyed an update with the installation of new LED TV screens and gaming consoles.
A generator has also been fitted which means MERV can now work as a stand-alone unit, which will increase its usefulness at venues out of town.
Shaun Bliesner, from CTC’s Connections in Murgon, said a movie projector, screen and disco lights were also being installed.
The total makeover has cost about $10,000 with Les and Barbara donating their time.
