Inspire Community
One of the primary goals of our project is to inspire our community across the Toowoomba Region.
This inspiration may take many forms.
This year we have already taken our Project stall to the Pittsworth Show, the Toowoomba Royal Show and the Cabarlah Country Markets.
The Crows Nest Show is scheduled for 11 May 2024 where we will support High Country Koala Action Group their community setting.
We also have plans for koala events in crows Nest in September and Pittsworth in November.
Of course, we will hold our annual Toowoomba Region Koala Count again in November 2024
To do all these things we will need:-
An effective communication strategies
Enthusiastic and resourced project partners
We are calling for registration interest from Toowoomba Region residents willing to undertake paid roles within this community inspiration space.
