Come N Try Bowen Family Fun Event

The Whitsunday Regional Council is hosting a Come N Try event in Bowen next weekend and the whole community is invited to come along and have some fun.

The Come N Try event is designed to bring people together, improve overall physical fitness and inspire positive mental health by providing a fun and easy way to try out a new activity with others!

The event encourages all ages to get outdoors and try new activities while having social interactions and exercise.

Manager of Bowen Tourism and Business, Leanne Abernethy, said this would be a great event for families, both visitors and locals alike.

“We appreciate Whitsunday Regional Council hosting events like this in Bowen,” Leanne said.
 
“The program includes a diverse range of activities and all should be lots of fun.”

Test your skills on the giant obstacle course that’s filled with challenges and obstacles for the ultimate adrenaline rush, and then cool down on the Slip N Slide which is perfect for the warm Autumn days.

Or relax on the scenic train ride around the Bowen Foreshore.

There will also be wildlife encounters, arts and crafts activities, a wellbeing workshop, sports workshop and a chill zone, perfect for lawn games, music and a reading corner.

“We encourage people to travel to Bowen for this event, take the opportunity to spend the rest of the day checking out our many other attractions including our beaches, lookouts, historic jetty, bushwalks, Summergarden Cinema, and of course, the Big Mango,” Leanne added.
