10.01.2022 History repeats as police patrol the border at Hungerford. The 2020 closure of the Queensland state border in response to the COVID-19 pandemic has created a re...peat of a little piece of policing history in the remote Queensland outback community of Hungerford, located on the Queensland New South Wales border.

06.01.2022 We are just winding down from the 30th Hungerford Field Day, and WHAT A DAY!!!. We could never have coordinated such an event without the continued loyalty and support from the Hungerford Community, especially the committee and their fantastic band of workers. The work that is done prior to, during and after the event is not only appreciated but is unparalleled. Moc would especially like to thank our willing and very capable girls within the committees of both The Hungerfo...rd Progress Association and The Hungerford Sports Association, for their unselfish and dedicated time. Also again a BIG THANK YOU to our Sponsors, Exhibitors, Visitors, Family and Friends who made the effort to travel to Hungerford for the Field Day. The 30th Hungerford Field Day was a very special event having been officially opened by the 26th Governor of Queensland His Excellency The Honourable Mr Paul de Jersey AC and Mrs Kaye de Jersey. We also would like to extend a big thank you, to Ms Sally Leigo for travelling from Darwin to be the Special Guest Speaker for the day. Thanks to Mr Bruce Scott and Ms Ann Leahy MP for their attendance, Mayor Tractor Ferguson and Mrs Peggy Ferguson, Mr Lew Rojahn for ushering, chauffeuring and officially attending to the Governor and his wife.

They will be on site at this years Field Day.

03.01.2022 For the first time in more than a century, Queensland will restrict access at its border. This step is essential to slow the spread of coronavirus on the advice... of our Chief Health Officer. These measures aren’t directed at our border communities who cross to shop or work, attend medical appointments and return to their homes. They’re designed to stop holidaymakers leaving southern states and risking the spread of this virus through Queensland. Measures take effect from midnight Wednesday and include: Border road closures and police checks on vehicles on major highways Advice to aircraft passengers at departure point that travellers to Queensland will be required to self-isolate for 14 days Travellers arriving at Queensland airports to be met by police and other officers Termination of rail services Exemptions include: Freight Emergency vehicles Emergency workers Those travelling to and from work Court orders including family court Compassionate grounds Medical treatment Anyone travelling to Queensland, not usually resident in Queensland, for any other reason will have to agree to self-isolate for 14 days sick or not. Penalties for failing to comply include fines of up to $13,345. Please let your own network know about these changes and help us spread the word. #Queensland #coronavirus

03.01.2022 It is with huge disappointment we wish to announce that the committee have made the difficult decision to cancel our 2020 Hungerford Horse and Motorbike Gymkhan...a and Enduro. Even with the recent easing of restrictions in Queensland, it would be a mammoth task for our committee of volunteers to realistically and safely operate within the Government's COVID-19 Safe Framework for Events. It is essential we consider the safety of our community, neighboring communities, our competitors, spectators and the caters attending our event. The amazing following we receive every year can be upwards of 400, making it an awesome weekend, but this is a big job in these normal year's, for our little committee and so managing a COVID safe plan for the weekend would be unrealistic for our manpower. We trust you will understand our decision and you will continue your amazing support into the 2021 event. We are just as disappointed but we will be back bigger and better next year!! #cancelled #disappointed #100percent #biggerandbetter2021 #weloveyoursupport #thankyouforyoursupport #bullooshirecouncil @explorebulloo #motorbikegymkhanaevents @thewesternherald @warregowatchman @outbackradio @nswaustralia @qldaustralia See more
