Yallakool Park managers Heath Sander and Rowena Wessling have also taken over management of the South Burnett’s other premier fishing recreation area, Lake Boondooma Caravan and Recreation Park.
A South Burnett Regional Council spokesperson said the couple started on February 27.
They took over from previous managers Doug and Kath Hughes.
“Doug and Kath Hughes managed the Caravan and Recreation Park from December 2019 and stayed on as caretakers during the COVID-19 closure (March to August), and assisted Council with COVID Management Plans in preparation for re-opening of the parks,” the spokesperson said.
“Council thanks Doug and Kath for their service and wishes them all the best in their new endeavours.”
Heath and Rowena are well-known as co-chairs of the Murgon Music Muster.
