Families looking for a fun and affordable way to spend the start of the school holidays are invited to Lake Proserpine this Saturday, with the annual Open Day returning for another morning of community entertainment.
The event will feature live music, face painting, guided dam wall tours, a free barbecue, children's activities and even wildlife sightings, giving locals and visitors the chance to explore one of the Whitsundays' most popular outdoor destinations.
Running from 9am to 1pm on Saturday, July 4th, the free event will showcase everything Lake Proserpine has to offer this school holiday.
Kids will also have the chance to release fingerlings into the lake, with organisers encouraging families to bring along a bucket for the activity. Visitors can then meet local boating, fishing, camping and water safety experts, as well enjoy prizes and giveaways throughout the day.
Visitors can also take a behind-the-scenes look at one of the region's most important pieces of infrastructure with a guided dam wall tour hosted by Sunwater. Tours are available for those aged 10 and over when accompanied by an adult.
For those wanting to extend the adventure, Lake Proserpine Holiday Park is also offering free camping for children throughout the weekend, making it the perfect opportunity to enjoy one of the region's favourite outdoor escapes.
