Celebrate Cloncurry 150 Years
Countdown to the C150 Celebrations
In 2017, Cloncurry will be celebrating 150 years since Ernest Henry discovered a rich deposit of copper and named it Great Australia Mine and Roger Sheaffe established the first pastoral run in the Cloncurry district – “Fort Constantine”.
15 – 23 September 2017 will be when the 150th celebrations hit a high note with a weeklong salute to this milestone.
Please feel free to share your stories, ideas, memories and old photos with us by either sending an email to council@cloncurry.qld.gov.au, visiting the C150 Facebook page or sending information to PO Box 3, Cloncurry, Qld 4824.
