The Nationals Member for Gippsland Darren Chester is encouraging locals to explore Gippsland during these school holidays and help create more local jobs.
Mr Chester said one of the best ways to support local towns and small communities was to take a break within Gippsland and enjoy the region’s attractions.
“The weather is warming up, so it’s a great time to get outside and explore the most beautiful corner of Australia,” Mr Chester said.
“I encourage local residents to consider day trips and short breaks within the Gippsland region to support local businesses and small communities.
“Remember, every time you spend money in Gippsland, you are helping to create more jobs for young people into the future.”
Mr Chester said he enjoyed spending his spare time at Gippsland’s beaches or boating on the Gippsland Lakes.
“I also like spending time camping with my family, and we are spoilt for choice with high quality restaurants and wineries selling quality local produce,” Mr Chester said.
