What do you want to happen on Bowen in the next four years?
Andrea Bastin: I would love to see a cultural shift and it starts with language. A simple change of tone and inclusiveness is important - allow people the freedom to voice their opinions. We are not a two sided community, we live here because we want to live here and everyone has a valid voice.
Robert Ballantyne: I’d like to have a permanent location (ideally on the south side of the island, which is the best area for star-gazing) to set up my Dobsonian telescope - which is the size of a coffin. With that, I’d like some kind of astronomy club to come together and actually use it. Just don’t ask me to organize it.
