ISSUE 4 - November/December 2010

Landscaping - Cairns Convention Centre

As mentioned in our last E-Bulletin, work has now commenced on replacing the trees on the Sheridan Street side of the building with Tuckeroo trees. The current trees have root systems which have become invasive causing structural damage to the building and its services.

An Arborist's report was undertaken to determine if the current trees could be retained but unfortunately the only option to ensure and maintain the structural integrity of the Centre was to replace them.

We expect the landscaping to be completed by 24 January 2011 and wish to assure the community that this will not impact on the events taking place at the Centre or access to the carpark.

Let's Go Taipans, Let's Go!!

Congratulations to the Cairns Taipans on a great start to the season, undefeated at home. Last game there was only a couple of hundred spare seats so get in early for the next home game on 4 December vs Wollongong Hawks.

Let's keep their home record intact and make the Convention Centre a fortress for the Taipans.
