Palmwoods Community and Business Association

15/01/2026

Thanks to Sunshine Valley Gazette for the story. We have our new committee in place and are looking forward to the year ahead. We had our first meeting this week and will have details of some exciting community events coming up soon.

Fresh faces take the reins at Palmwoods Community and Business Association

Palmwoods Community & Business Association held their AGM on Tuesday December 2 and are happy to announce their new office bearers under the overseeing of Winston Johnston OAM - Division 5 Sunshine Coast Council: President Fraser Austin; Vice-President Kay Nixon; Treasurer Kristina Lewis; Secretary Paul Brandenburg; PR & Social Communications Manager Sarah Wright.

Gratitude was shown to those who have kept things going and for the 10 year birthday of the Community Garden ‘Soil & Soul’, but we look forward to a more vibrant 2026 with these positions being filled and the impetus of the success of the Bush Dance paving the way for a number of new community events planned for next year.

The PCBA gives the opportunity as a group to communicate with Sunshine Coast Council and a collective voice for issues of concern. We hope to see more community groups and businesses involved as well as enthusiastic individuals who can be part of this. It is a great way for newcomers to the town to get to know people and for better communication when co-ordinating events in the town.

Palmwoods has a lot to offer but we can all work more to creating a safe, vibrant, sustainable and caring community. If you would like to know more about the PCBA please email: [email protected] or drop by The Little Book Nook (Tues -Sat, 9am-2pm) to leave contact your details with Kay.

🌾 What a night, Palmwoods! 🌾

Our Bush Dance was an incredible evening of music, laughter and community spirit. Families, friends and neighbours came together for a true country celebration and the dance floor was full all night.

A huge thank you to The Swag and Fiddle Bushdance Band for the live tunes, to Heritage Bank for proudly sponsoring the music, and to R Mack from Inspired Haus for manning the sausage sizzle and bringing along the iconic red truck.

Events like this remind us what makes our town so special: connection, kindness and community. 💚

Thank you to everyone who joined us, volunteered, cooked, danced and supported the Palmwoods Community & Business Association and the Palmwoods Community Garden.
