The weather is warming up and the sun is shining. The flowers are starting to bloom! It is time to make plans for how you are going to enjoy this change of season in the South Burnett. Here are three Spring Bucket List items to get you started –

1. Spring Racing

Spring is when the country and country racing comes to life. Young foals, food, fine wine, and fashion.  Experience racing in the country where you’ll get up close and personal with the horses, mingle with the crowd. Relax, and settle back with a great vantage point from every angle.
