Burdekin Tourism Volunteers were joined by Burdekin Shire Council to celebrate their Christmas party on Saturday, December 2.
Burdekin Shire Council Mayor Lyn McLaughlin congratulated the volunteers on a terrific year.
“They have done an amazing job of promoting our region to over 13,000 visitors who came to the Burdekin Visitor Information Centres in Ayr and Home Hill this year,” she said.
“That's over 3,000 more than last year.
“Council also had the honour of recognising the volunteers who reached special milestones, especially Robin Blundell who has been with us as a volunteer for 26 years.”
Alongside Robin, Diane Oats was recognised for 10 years of service and Barry Hewson and Cally Olditch for five years.
