Mackay and Whitsunday Life

Ruth’s Round-Up

Hi Everyone!
It’s been a busy week here at the office! As many of you know, we officially launched our brand-new Hinchinbrook paper on Tuesday. I'd like to start by giving a huge congratulations to the Hinchinbrook Life team for their fantastic efforts in bringing this paper to life.
In other news, I've been busy doing a lot of dog-sitting lately, and one of the wonderful dogs I've been looking after this week is Finn, one of our office dogs.
Which leads me to an exciting new addition to Whitsunday Life—Find Finn! Each month, Finn will be hiding somewhere within the pages, and it's up to you to track him down. You can find all the details on how to play on page 26.
On the topic of dogs, Ruby, our Production Representative, has recently got a new puppy called Koa. Koa is a mix of Border Collie and Kelpie, and he’s now joining Finn in office dog responsibilities. The whole team is very happy to have him around...well, almost everyone. Finn, however, has had to come to terms with a new concept: sharing.
Additionally, Last weekend, I had the privilege of attending the Breast and Prostate Cancer Charity Event at the Proserpine Golf Club. It was truly uplifting to see so many people come together, dressed up, in support of such a vital cause.
As November comes to a close, I'm excited for the upcoming Christmas season, which I'll be celebrating with my wonderful housemates. That said, I can't help but miss my family and friends back in the UK.

Ruth
