Wordfromthe CEO

Hello and welcome to the June edition of our newsletter.

Well winter is here, bit of a shock to the system to wake up to -5 a couple of weeks ago, I am sure it won’t be the last frosty day for winter. Our crafters are busily knitting for our jumpers and Jazz tree, be sure to keep an eye out for the tree, more details to be added to our Facebook page. As most of you are aware our Warwick office is in Plumbs Chambers building in Warwick, this building is believed to be the second oldest shop in Queensland. During jumpers and jazz, we will be opening the building to the public on specific days and times to allow locals and visitors to enjoy the wonderful history of the building. Please see the jumpers and jazz program for days/times of the guided tours. June brings National Reconciliation week from 27May to 3rd June 2023, the theme this year is Be a Voice for Generations - urges all Australians to use their power, their words, and their actions to create a better, more just Australia for all of us. If you would like some further information or to join in on events in your local area, please follow the link. Upcoming Events – National Reconciliation Week 2023

Trav's Photography & the Macintyre Wind Farm

Karara

For the last 12 months Travis and Shaz amongst other interests have been focusing on the construction of the Macintyre Wind Farm at Karara, just west of Warwick. Trav has a very keen interest and extraordinary knowledge on this subject. Most Friday's this is the first port of call on the travelling duos scenic adventures. To watch the progress each week is something Trav looks forward to very much. There have been hundreds of photos taken, developed and kept safe in numerous albums. Travis's interest in this construction doesn't stop at visiting the site. He explores the internet and Facebook for any information regarding the development and transportation of the turbines, cranes, blades, towers and anything that is heading to the site. Trav especially likes to track the route from the Port of Brisbane, the Toowoomba bypass, through to Millmerran and onto the Inglewood Road to the Karara site. Shaz and Trav have been so fortunate to have seen firsthand many of these vehicles, wide loads and pilot vehicles along these roads. Often Trav will interview the drivers about their knowledge of the wind farm and any other jobs they've done in the past and future travels.

The duo have been to the Port of Brisbane to see where the turbines etc are stored which was a real thrill. The empty trucks travel down Cunningham's Gap where Trav has been able to get photos of them going past while having lunch at Aratula on some of the other Friday's adventures. There is to be 180 turbines to be erected in phase one and about the same again in phase 2. This will take a few years to complete. It is the 6th windfarm to be built in Australia and one of the world's largest onshore wind farms. There is currently around 20 standing complete. Trav personally knows many people working there and often has firsthand news from them about the goings on. As Trav has several albums filled with photos of the site, there will always be an historical account of this project.
