Busloads of Brisbaneites are heading up the coast to the recently flood-ravaged Gympie region in an effort to provide aid to suffering local businesses.
David Rakowski who helped in the cleanup effort as part of the Mud Army, organised the event to offer a different kind of help from people who were not able to assist in the cleanup.
Mr. Rakowski’s tour aims to bring Brisbane locals to pubs and cafes in flood affected towns to help restore some business, and even encourage tourism in the future.
The tour will see the bus go through Woodford, Blackbutt, Wooroolin, Nanango, Kilkivan, and Goomeri, ending with Mr. Rakowski providing free breakfast to the whole town of Tansey
