Can you believe it's only one month until Opera at Jimbour is back on the Western Downs? Since it's Thursday, there's only one way to celebrate — here's a #ThrowbackThursday to #OPERAatJIMBOUR in 2007. It's safe to say that Opera has earned its reputation more than ten years on from this photo — in 2017 we welcomed close to 10,000 guests to the amphitheatre! Do you have any Opera throwbacks to share? Tickets to the 2019 Opera at Jimbour are on sale now via www.operaatjimbour.com/

Exciting news! Council has purchased the former 'Mary's Commercial Hotel' lot in Dalby. Council plan on turning this land into a green space as part of the regions ongoing beautification works. Keep an eye out as this new area comes to life 🌱🌿🌻

We're investing in the future by ensuring that our young people can find great jobs in the Western Downs — just like Jordan (Dalby State High School) and David (Tara Shire State College), our work experience students in the IT and Parks & Open Spaces departments. Great to have you onboard guys!

Hey Western Downs, do you have your singing voices warmed up? Don't forget the 'Help is on it Way' Choral Workshop with Emma Dean Music is on this Saturday at the Chinchilla Cultural Centre from 10am — be a part of a national choral initiative focussed on tackling tough conversations about mental health: http://bit.ly/31N66Jc #QLDMUSICFEST 🎶 Hang on, help is on its way. I'll be there as fast as I can.... 🎶

Great news from the WDRC 2019/20 Budget! This year we have budgeted for 30 trainees including apprentices who will be allocated across areas and regions of Council. Council's traineeship program has gone from strength to strength and is one of many things we're really proud of.
