Drop in with Daniel

Hi Everyone,

What a week it has been!

I’m sure many of you will know already that Queensland Premier David Crisafulli came to town last week as the guest of honour at the official launch of Hinchinbrook Life Newspaper.

It was an absolute honour to have him at our launch at the Herbert River Sub Branch RSL in Ingham. David and his team are extremely kind and professional.

As I am still settling into Hinchinbrook, I find it wonderful that the community continue to approach me with story ideas.

This week, at the Launch of the paper, I was told about the mural painted on the side of the Hinchinbrook Community Pharmacy wall. The very next day, I met Andrew (who owns the pharmacy), and he told me the story behind it, and it was fascinating.

Please keep contacting me about any stories you think the community would like to know. It’s these stories that the community want to hear, and I thoroughly enjoy sharing them with everyone.

Whenever I am out and about, I am thrilled to hear everyone’s praise for the paper, knowing that the community not only values the hard work myself and the team are putting in, but also love the paper. It means a lot to us.
