Hi Everyone,
One of the things I truly love about our sunny state is our fearless spirit — the desire not just to aim high, but to celebrate the best and strive to achieve the best.
Whether that is patting someone on the back for winning an award or aiming for excellence in our own fields. Over the years, I’ve seen that in our community it’s not about racing to be the best — it’s about everyone bringing their best to the table. Being the very best version of ourselves. And I truly love that.
This mindset shines through in two exciting statewide campaigns recently launched ahead of Queensland Day on June 6.
The Best of Queensland Experience Program by Tourism & Events Queensland has recognised over 120 incredible local operators — keep an eye out for a special feature we’ll be running in the paper next week to celebrate these high achievers.
If you’re one of those 120 businesses and haven’t booked your spot yet, please call Trish on 0499 500 406 — she’d be delighted to include you.
On top of that, the Queensland Government recently launched the ‘All The Best’ campaign — a fantastic chance for all Queenslanders to vote for their favourites, whether it’s the best meat pie, local event, or landmark.
The overall winner will be announced by the Premier on Queensland Day.
Our region is brimming with ‘Bests,’ so let’s rally behind our own and see if we can crown a Whitsunday product, landmark, or activity as the best in the state.
There are so many passionate people fuelling what makes our region truly fabulous — who or what do you know and love? What deserves to be our Best?
