Rooke Park
Prominent businessman Ivo Rooke's legacy will live on in Caloundra through the donation of the majority of his Moffat Beach property to council for parkland. Mr Rooke was one of Caloundra’s most generous and popular personalities who passed away in 2009. Division 2 Councillor Tim Dwyer said the donated land would be named “Rooke Park”. “Mr Rooke was a wonderful contributor to the Caloundra community through his television repair business, as a member of the local Rotary club and a life member of the local ambulance committee. This transfer of land was very important to Mr Rooke & I’m sure he would be thrilled to know that the Caloundra community can now enjoy the place he called home." Date named: 3 November 2011
