Tourism Noosa’s Visitor Information Centre Volunteers are being celebrated as part of National Volunteers Week.
To celebrate the important contribution they make to the Noosa community and our tourism industry each and every day, volunteers will be treated to delicious daily treats for morning and afternoon tea (different shifts of volunteers), receive a complimentary coffee voucher from Cafe Le Mond and a heat band for their Pottery for the Planet recyclable coffee cups which they received last year as part of Volunteers Week.
Tourism Noosa chief executive officer Melanie Anderson said volunteers played an all important role in welcoming visitors to Noosa.
“With close to 200,000 visitors each year visiting the Visitor Information Centre on Hastings Street, our volunteers are there to welcome, inform and assist visitors on things to do in the region 364 days a year,“ she said.
“Volunteers are part of our local community and they truly are a wealth of knowledge, providing visitors with information on where to stay, what experiences and tours to do, what restaurants, breweries and distilleries are in the region and, importantly, providing that local knowledge and those insider tips that visitors love to know about.
“This week marks the all-important National Volunteers Week, and we are pleased to be able to acknowledge our 70 volunteers for their contribution.
“I would like to take the opportunity to personally thank them all for the amazing contribution they make to Tourism Noosa and the visitors that we welcome to our region. The dedication and commitment from them all is outstanding and we would not be able to provide such an award-winning VIC without them.“
