COOROY
Cooroy is another surprise town.
Traveling from Tewantin and arriving over the crest of the hill the
nothing much is apparent. A few hours later and Cooroy has cemented a
truly favorable impression.
Cooroy is clearly a centre with
administrative clout.
This
place has a delightful buzz about it.
The
Butter Factory is a major contributor to the wealth of the town.
Cooroy's name came from
Cooroy Mountain, which was originally called Coorooey, from the
Aboriginal word for possum. The town also predates the Sunshine Coast
development, and is clearly a commute location for many who work at
the nearby Noosa and beyond.
The Cooroy War Memorial
bears testament to a rich heritage.
The Cooroy Churches are
modern.  
The Cooroy Hotel also from
the modern era.
The traveler hugging the
coastline will pass through Cooroy. Be glad of the interruption and
delight at a minimum, at one of the coffee shops.
