Mackay Regional Council has adopted an activation plan for the Sarina Field of Dreams Precinct, aimed at strengthening the site as a vibrant community and tourism destination.
The precinct brings together attractions including the Mackay Region Visitor Information Centre, Sarina Sugar Shed, Sarina Art Gallery, Sarina Arts and Craft Centre and the new Sarina District Historical Centre, formerly Sarina Museum.
The plan focuses on attracting locals through regular events and experiences, increasing tourism visitation and strengthening collaboration between community groups and volunteers.
During consultation, the decision was made to hand the Sarina Museum collection back to the community through the newly incorporated Sarina and District Historical Society, which will operate the Sarina District Historical Centre from the former Sarina Museum building under a licence agreement provided by council.
