The Breakfast of Champions continues to grow. CocoBrew Rockhampton once again put on a great spread for our bi-monthly event. It was great to have Wade Clark from Advance Rockhampton, RRC Councillors Shane Latcham, Drew Wickerson and Edward Oran in attendance.
We also appreciated representatives from both North and South packages of the Rockhampton Ring Road turning up and offering short overviews of the major project on our doorstep.
The Rocky region is certainly in good hands with the business leaders who turned up today.
Thank you to each and every one of you. We can’t wait for our next event!

The operation, now in full swing, is an absolute credit to the resilience and persistence of the Bravus team in delivering what is now a world leading, efficient and environmentally sustainable coal mine, employing over 1000 regional Queenslanders.
The mine has a lifespan of over 50 years and is an important foundation for job seekers for many years to come.
Bravus’ commitment to the environment, traditional owners and regional Queenslanders is outstanding. Congratulations to Mick Crowe, Bravus and every business and community person who has been a part of giving this project, life! Queensland coal is in good hands!
