Great comp. How about getting everyone to vote on the 7 wonders of Barcaldine from a list of notable local sites such as the Weir, Tree of Knowledge, Monument, Workers Heritage Centre, The Sandhill, The Globe, Lagoon Creek, The Bullring, Radio Theatre, Astoria Cafe, Redbank etc. It seems that there are all these 7 different wonders of the world so why not have similar for Barcy.
