Was there any advertising in Melbourne on the local media like there was with Brisbane. Plus when I have visited my relatives in Brisbane the reaction I have had about this matter has been 100% positive feedback.
Persons in Brisbane I have talked to about this matter have relatives or friends living the local council area here. Port Macquarie is certainly closer than Newcastle for residents in Taree and Port Macquarie while we are also closer than Coffs Harbour if you live in Kempsey.
Some of my school friends from my teenage years living in Brisbane were pleased that this option was available. Also where I stay for accommodation the feedback has been positive. Plus any pub clubs and restaurants the same for starters.
When Port Macquarie wants to try this again please make sure local advertising occurs. Radio and newspapers were used for Brisbane to my knowledge.
We cannot reply on some lawn bowlers during winter, business people and holidaymakers without letting them know as examples of target areas to look at.
Let's hope this can be good in the future?
