Plenty of rainfall was experienced across the Burdekin to ring in the new year, and many locals noticed a sad looking Christmas Tree struggling to cope in the Burdekin Theatre Forecourt.
Almost poetic, the photo captured and shared on Wednesday the 1st of January 2025, attracted waves of attention with many members of the community noting it’s a sign to box up the festive season, and welcome in the new year.
Although a sore spot for some, other locals were able to make light of the situation, finding humour and understanding in the fact that storms and heavy rainfall can be expected at this time of year, and nature was simply helping with the “pack up process”.
As the sun shone on Thursday the 2nd of January, the Burdekin Shire Council promptly returned the beautiful new tree to its former glory.
