Gavin I am personally fed up with the litany of PUBLIC streets of Cairns being closed in the CBD. They were closed for the Colour Run which turned out to be a commercial enterprise that donated $500 to the Hospital Foundation and kept $8,000 for itself. A high price for the public to pay. Today is the ironman event and thousands of people have been advised to add TWO HOURS to their trip. Wonderful for tourism dont you think? The returns are a financial benefit to the select few. The trickle down effect that we have been told about for decades is a myth. There are other events that close these street but I will not go through them all. The very important Relay for Life for Cancer patients is much more important. The organisers of that have the decency to limit their fund raising to Barlow Park. Far more deserving people benefit from that one event than all the crappy ones you go on about.
