Yongergnow Malleefowl Centre
In its second full year of operation the Yongergnow Malleefowl Centre continues to develop its unique tourism product which combines the story of the malleefowl in the Western Australian landscape and a powerful conservation message to do with land use. The centre’s strategic location, in close proximity to the Stirling Range and Fitzgerald River National Parks and in a district which still contains significant numbers of malleefowl in the wild has been a factor in its steady development.
In 2008/09 the centre received $30,000 through the Regional Development Scheme to further develop its marketing strategy. The grant has allowed the group to complete the placement of strategic signage, promote its corporate sponsorship options and undertake a series of coordinated events to lift its profile. The GSDC will continue to work with the organisation as it further develops its tourism product.
