Fun at Country Fair

THE Palmwoods Country Fair proved another resounding success despite the day dawning with pouring rain and storms.

A decision to go ahead despite the weather, proved to be sound when the clouds cleared for a fine afternoon and evening.

"We had a great attendance, especially considering the weather," Palmwoods State School’s Jenny McKay said. "Everything went off well and we thank the community for its terrific support."

The annual tug-o-war proved to be another tough contest with winners being teams from the Palmwoods Rural Fire Brigade, Nambour High Ag Farm and Matthew Flinders.
