We Heart Chinchilla

We arrived in Chinchilla on Thursday, March 19. We were greeted by the Chinchilla Rotary Club at the Weir for a fantastic evening. We started out by seeing the Weir and its beautiful surroundings on a sunset boat ride (thanks so much Chris!). Then we had a barbi with so many delicious salads and grilled meats. We had a first-ever outdoor presentation by the gum trees-what a fantastic evening! We weren't done yet. We then learned how to crack some whips, yes actual whips. Thank you Matty for the performance!


Friday we toured the Korgan Creek Power Station. We had hard hats, visibility vests, safety glasses and earplugs. What a tour! We saw so much and learned that the station provides 30% of Queensland's power.

Saturday we got to experience the QGC's Drama at the Gasfields. Rotary was cooking and selling burgers and sausages. There were as many as 2,500 people at the event. We watched several performances including the World Premiere of 'Opportunity,' the story of Pete Murray's life and music career. Pete was in attendance and took time to meet us and even take a photo with us.


Thank you Ed, hosts and everyone in Chinchilla for a wonderful time!
