HAVE you ever wondered how you can contribute to the future of our township and community and help to create amazing projects that will forever leave a lasting imprint on our town and local environment? Why not consider becoming an active member of the Coolum Residents Association (CRA).

Coolum Beach has a long history of involving the community when it comes to making improvements to our township. The ongoing legacy of beautification projects and capital works in and around our township has at the forefront of the Coolum Residents Association since its incorporation over 100 years ago.

With the support of our councillors, CRA has been responsible for instigating and collaborating with council staff to achieve the many upgrades to our area over the past 30 years.

Coolum Beach residents share a common goal, and that is to further improve their surroundings and create a comfortable place to live. In the past, our members have brought an incredible wealth of experience and professional knowledge into how best to shape the future of the area and improve upon our lifestyle and the natural character of our coastal region.

Through our residents’ association, we have continually contributed and encouraged our council to provide many iconic infrastructure projects that have created a very desirable and enjoyable place to live and call home.

Some of these projects over the past 30 years have brought many benefits, which include the landscape beautification of the David Low Way from the Coolum Surf Club north to the Coolum Hotel, the redesign of the Point Perry lookout area, the Coolum Boardwalk, whale watching platforms and the creation of artwork projects in and around the township of the Coolum Beach area.

These are some of the examples of what community-minded people can achieve with the support of the CRA and our council’s cooperation.
Through public participation and engagement, your ideas and support will help deliver community expectations and realise opportunities necessary to build the future of our seaside community.
