Noosa kids back sandman

By JONATHON HOWARD

NOOSA Today asked several kids and adults whether they want Arron McCormick, known as Noosa’s “sandcastle man” to remain at Main Beach?

“I think the sandcastles are very creative and they give kids lots of good ideas to create their own sandcastles,” Hannah Thurn, 9, of Noosa.

“It would be sad without the sandcastle man at Noosa. I think he’s very clever – he also puts candles inside the sandcastles which is nice,” Angus Thurn, 6, of Noosa.

“His sandcastle creations add a lot of value to Noosa and everyone’s enjoyed his sandcastles for many years. It’s also great for social media (Facebook), because visitors take photos with the sandcastles and post them all over the world,” Rachel Lambert, 26, of Noosa.
