Resort's month of sex
PLANS for a month-long "anything goes" sex party at a Mossman resort, north of Cairns, have divided the sugarcane growing community.
The White Cockatoo nudist resort plans to open its doors to saucy swingers for a 31-day orgy in Mossman in March in a move owner Tony Fox says will inject much needed tourist dollars into the town.

"It’s tough economic times," Mr Fox told The Cairns Post yesterday.
"Hedonism style resorts in Jamaica, the US and Europe do very well and a bit of research showed this was something we could try here.
"We’re operating within the boundaries of the law."
But at least one church group was unimpressed.
"We wouldn’t support that at all," Mossman Assembly of God chief executive officer Stephen Westbrook said.
The criticism follows a stinging rebuke from Queensland’s Catholic Archbishop James Foley, who predicted racy swingers would "cheapen" the resort.
Cooya Beach local Craig Woodrow, 29, was unfazed by the looming swinger invasion.
"It doesn’t worry me," he said. "If I was single, that’d be something I’d go to."
Mr Fox’s business-savvy has won the approval of Cairns Regional Council Mayor Val
Schier.
"I’d be happy to go and have a cup of tea with him. But it would have to be clothed," she said.
