History of Country Music in Australia.〕 and has now grown to a four-day festival attracting musicians from across Australia and internationally. The 2015 Gympie Muster attracted a crowd of over 23,000. A fundraising initiative of the Apex Club of Gympie, the Muster is a registered charity with all profits distributed among worthy community groups and charity partners, both locally and nationally. An ever-growing number of community groups are also involved in the staging of the event, and for most, it is their major fundraiser for the year. There is a real sense of community ownership in the Muster with now more than 35 local community groups involved in the event's success. Since its inception, the Muster has raised more than $15,000,000 dollars for local community groups and charity partners Australia-wide. == Location == The music festival is sited in the Amamoor Forest Reserve.〔 In 2012, a fully equipped field hospital was staffed in an effort to ensure safety and deal with medical emergencies. Located in the peaceful Amamoor Creek State Forest Park, there are over 50 hectares of well maintained, planned camping facilities, plenty of hot showers and toilets, and a central entertainment precinct. Located 40-kilometres south-west of Gympie, it's an easy drive 2-hours north of Brisbane, just 40-minutes from stunning Noosa and heritage listed Fraser Island. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Gympie Muster」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
