Fusion shows Cooroy spirit
RANDOM acts of poetry will be among the talents, products and wares showcased at the Cooroy Fusion event this Saturday.
This year, the three year-old event aptly named Fusion, has brought together the much-loved annual Woodworkers' show at Memorial Hall, the Mother's day orchid show at the CWA hall and Fusion library event into one all-day colourful, community show day.
Sunshine Coast council spokesperson Liz Bleechmore said the whole event had been put together through community partnerships and local sponsorships.
