     Bringing members together to network with each other, hear about Tourism Noosa’s projects and
     learn about other member activity is a valued benefit of membership. Our monthly networking nights
     which were held up until February when COVID-19 restrictions forced their cancellation, attracted a
     growing number of members. Events included:

     •    A successful collaboration with the Cooroy
          Chamber of Commerce and Country Noosa
          producers
     •    Pre-networking night information sessions
          including a marketing update and information
          on the new website
     •    Opportunities for host members to provide
          updates on their business
     •    Updates from members on special projects
          including sustainability initiatives such as
          beach clean-ups
     •    An opportunity to donate to Trees for Tourism
     •    Partnerships with events including the Noosa Festival of Surfing.

     Events were held at venues around the shire including a collaboration with Visit Sunshine Coast
     at Habitat Noosa, and the Christmas Party in conjunction with the Noosa Junction Association –
     a plastic-free event.
