Hello Readers,

We have a wonderful front cover feature article highlighting local lad, Ryan Brockway, who is on his way to stardom on the country music stage. It is incredible what he has already achieved at just 11 years of age. Read more on page 4.

Sharing the love on Valentine’s Day, two local couples show us what true love is made of.

You can have your say on the Bribie bridge, with two community information sessions to be held in Bongaree. See page 10 for more information.

The Bribie bridge is one of our region’s biggest issues. I think the state government should just get on and build a new bridge. What do you think? Let me know by emailing me on belinda@islandandsurrounds.com.au

As usual we cover a wide variety of local issues, while showcasing our local businesses. It is our local businesses who make this publication possible, so please support them.

Until next month.

Warm regards,

Belinda
