Oi! is an induction into Queensland's Central West towns and some of their tourism attractions and services. Oi! was developed familiarise staff and visitors with the towns and to facilitate onselling and promotion across the region.
Throughout Oi! you will see and hear the people from the region and even answer a few informal questions along the way! Listen to the individual introduction videos on this page (below) and whenyou're ready click "Let's Get Started" which will take you to a clickable map of the Central West - divided into the 7 local government areas. From there just make your way through the videos and enjoy seeing images of the region and hearing from the locals.
We hope you learn more about the Central West Queensland region and can visit these locations in person soon!
