Fitzroy Basin Association Inc. Celebrating our 21-year Journey
Fitzroy Basin Association Inc. Celebrating our 21-year Journey - History Book
The story of Fitzroy Basin Association Inc. (FBA) is as interesting as the Fitzroy river system itself. There have been occasions where the organisation has meandered all over the landscape, many times been an ephemeral state yet always returning to flood due to the hard work and passion of the staff and community. This history book 'Celebrating our 21-year journey' encapsulates the aim of FBA since inception and illustrates our beautiful landscape for all to see.
