May 3, 2017<\/strong><\/p>\n

A bunch of WAgs – Women in Agriculture, that is – gathered at Mondure Hall on Saturday to chat, listen to speakers and enjoy a healthy lunch.<\/p>\n

And having kids was no excuse not to come along to the free day.<\/p>\n

Children were kept busy at the back of the hall with games, activities and face-painting organised by Sarita\u00a0Shaw from\u00a0Like Home Family Daycare at Murgon.<\/p>\n

Guest speakers included Fleur Anderson, from Rural Business Collective, a business whose aim is to support rural and remote communities and foster entrepreneurship.<\/p>\n

“It is the age of small towns,” Fleur told southburnett.com.au<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

“There are lots of opportunities for small towns to diversify their economies.”<\/p>\n

Other guest speakers included Carolyn Stone, from AgForce; small businesswoman Romaine Undery, from Ramesa Nursery in Kingaroy; and Rosyln Rees, from Workplace Health and Safety Queensland.<\/p>\n

Kerry Baldwin, from the Murgon Local Ambulance Committee, promoted CPR awareness as well as the Queensland Ambulance Service\u2019s \u201cRural Emergency Mapping Information\u201d project.<\/p>\n

This project is particularly important for rural areas where the route to a property suggested by a GPS may not actually be the most direct \u2013 or quickest \u2013 way.<\/p>\n

The Murgon LAC has been distributing Rural Emergency Mapping Information (REMI) forms that it suggests all rural property owners or managers fill in.<\/p>\n

To bring the day back down to earth, literally, Ann McKenzie from the Burnett Mary Regional Group (BMRG) spoke about soil health.<\/p>\n

The WAg’s Day attracted about 50 participants.<\/p>\n

It was organised by BIEDO and BMRG with assistance from the Federal Government’s National Landcare Program.<\/p>\n

WAg’s Days (with different speakers) will also be held in Eidsvold on May 30 and Kilkivan on June 10.<\/p>\n
