I had the pleasure of attending the Seniors Luncheon at the Burdekin Memorial Hall last week. It was a fantastic event, thoughtfully organised each year by the Burdekin Shire Council Community Development Team – Tammy Quagliata, Melissah Lammon and Sara Smith. After enjoying a delicious lunch provided by Howie’s Catering, we played Bingo and were thoroughly entertained by Ricky Romeo, who had everyone toe tapping and singing along throughout the arvo.
Another great event is the Garage Sale Trail, which runs over two weekends. It kicked off last weekend and continues this weekend, Saturday 15 November 2025, at the Ayr Showgrounds Hall from 8am to 12pm. Come down to the showgrounds and join Burdekin residents in grabbing a bargain. There’ll be clothes, accessories, and a wide range of household goods – I’m sure there’ll be something for everyone. The possibilities are endless.
The Burdekin Community Association, Burdekin Neighbourhood Centre, Zonta, Police, and Burdekin Shire Council are coming together to hold a Candlelight Vigil for the 16 Days of Activism. We will unite for change and commemorate the lives lost to gender-based violence in Australia. Sadly, statistics in 2025 (up to this date) show that 55 women and 20 children have lost their lives to gendered violence in Australia. The vigil will be held at the Burdekin Theatre Forecourt on Tuesday 25 November at 7pm. Please feel free to come along and help us remember those who have lost their lives. By working together, we can combat inequality, change culture, and save lives. Hope to see you there.
