I think Proserpine, like a lot of regional centres, displays the importance of innovation, being prepared to be flexible in approaches to day-to-day living. Also the great spirit of the council in representing the people and exploring their needs and responding to them. The Governor said he was impressed by the multiple Proserpine businesses he visited. Their enthusiasm and sense of pride in their town was terrific, he said. What a memorable statement this makes for you and visitors to Proserpine. It was the second time the Governor had been to Proserpine as he last visited shortly after Cyclone Debbie.
