25.01.2022 So glad to hear our visitors enjoying their time here with our wonderful local operators. Wottaview Tours provide exceptional service and we are pleased to work alongside them in delivering local history to our visitors. Carol called into the Cardwell Historic Precinct to have a look through the museums and gather some more information on the construction of Kirrama Range road before departing back home. Another happy visitor to Cardwell and the Cardwell Visitor Information and Historic Precinct.

23.01.2022 To help raise the funds required to replace the stolen Cardwell UFO Festival signage. Community members have rallied together to make homemade preserves and we will be selling them at the museum. If you would like some yummy homemade products pop on down and the volunteers will show you our range. It is small at the moment but we are all busy in our kitchens, and hope the range will grow. We love our Cardwell UFO Festival and will help in any way we can to see it continue. First batch delivered today. Thankyou to Molly Dunn for supplying the homegrown tomatoes for the tomatoe chutney, Kerry Robinson for the home grown passionfruit for the passionfruit butter and Thea Omonde for the homegrown mandarins and limes for the mandarin marmalade and lime curd. #communityhelpingcommunity
