DOGS Agility Club
If you have been past the Eumundi Showgrounds on a Sunday afternoon you may have noticed all sorts of equipment set-out on the grounds and a hive of activity with happy dogs and their owners playing agility. The equipment consists of jumps, tunnels, weave poles, A-frames, dogwalks and see-saws.
Agility is a sport for dogs and their humans who are referred to as handlers. Most dogs enjoy agility and people of all ages take part. Handlers must build a trusting relationship with their dogs, teaching them many sets of skills and tricks. They guide their dogs through an obstacle course in a set order, trying not to fault, and within a pre-determined time allocation. It is a wonderful way to keep your furry companion mentally stimulated, physically fit and content. This year the club will host agility trials with competitors from Brisbane, Gold Coast, Hervey Bay and potentially further afield. It aims to mentor new club members so they also have the confidence to compete in agility trials.
The club is very grateful to the Eumundi Showgrounds Management Committee for allowing them to hire the grounds. Visit: dogsagility.com.au or for class enquiries email: dogs.greatersuncoast@gmail.com.

Bonza flights
Bonza airlines was finally granted its Air Operator Certificate on 12 January 2023 and is in the process of rolling out low-cost flights to 17 regional destinations from the airline’s home base at Sunshine Coast Airport. The Fly Bonza app is the only way to book directly so sign-up to the app to keep in the loop about routes and make flight reservations. Bookings can also be
made through registered travel agents. Bonza’s initial route map includes 27 routes to 17 destinations: Melbourne, Mildura, Avalon, Rockhampton, Mackay, Cairns, Townsville, Whitsunday (Prosperine), Sunshine Coast, Toowoomba, Bundaberg, Gladstone, Albury, Coffs Harbour, Newcastle, Port Macquarie and Tamworth.
Cooroy Community Garden Pavilion project
The Cooroy Community Garden Pavilion is almost a reality. After three years of fundraising – including grants from Bendigo Bank, Noosa Council and generous donations from the local community – building has commenced. Featuring a skillion-roof, spotted gum and ironbark, the walls will be made from local clay.
The project has been hindered by Covid and spiralling construction costs and an additional $50,000 is required to complete it. To help, make your donation to GoFundMe: gofund. me/6cb634f5. More information: facebook.com/ permaculturenoosa.
The aim is to provide a place where people can meet, work, share the gardens, pick crops, cook, prepare food in the pavilion and leave with seedlings for their own gardens. It is designed to accommodate all ages and activities with a focus on inclusion for the elderly and gardeners who live with a disability.

Rental stress
It’s official – the rental situation on the northern Sunshine Coast is dire – and there are statistics to back-up the anecdotal evidence.
In November 2022 the Rental Affordability Index (RAI) was released by SGS Economics and Planning, National Shelter, Beyond Bank and Brotherhood of St Laurence. The RAI tracks rental affordability relative to household incomes across Australia. Data can be broken down by postcode.
Rental stress is generally accepted as occurring when households spend more than 30% of their income on rent. An RAI score of 100 equates to that 30% benchmark so the more a postcode scores less than 100, the more rental stress households are likely to be experiencing. The November 2022 RAI found that in the northern Sunshine Coast area rental stress is occurring across much of the region.
For people renting in Eumundi and Doonan (4562) postcode the RAI score of 66 was categorised as “severely unaffordable”. Cooroy (4563) was in the same category at 78, as were
Tewantin (4565) at 77 and Noosaville (4566) at 65. There was no data for Pomona and Kin Kin (4571).
Noosa Heads and Sunshine Beach (4567) scored 66 while Peregian and Coolum (4573) scored 77. Yandina (4561) and Nambour (4560) were slightly better off being categorised as “unaffordable” with scores of 83 and 98 respectively. A bit of sunshine was evident for Kandanga, Imbil and Amamoor (4570) with its RAI of 126 considered “acceptable”. Visit: tinyurl.com/2p8zw8ac

Environment Levy investment
SCC ratepayers' Environment Levy funds support diverse projects, programs and initiatives to help protect and enhance our valued natural assets.
In 2021/22, $5.67m was spent on the acquisition of four properties adding a further 165 hectares to council’s conservation estate. This added to council’s 7,864 hectares owned and/or managed reserve network of which more than 4,000 hectares has been secured through the Environment Levy – protecting precious habitat areas and the animals that live in them.
The four acquisitions included 68 hectares of high-value habitat at Witta – expanding Kirby’s Rd Environment Reserve to 280 hectares and further consolidating landscape connectivity between Maleny and Kondalilla National Parks.
The acquisition of 65 hectares at Coochin Creek further consolidated the Regional Inter-urban Break Green Space, protecting 450 metres of Coochin Creek riparian habitat which flows into the RAMSAR-designated Pumicestone Passage.
In Verrierdale 13 hectares expanded an existing protected area of very high biodiversity values to 37 hectares to further protect critically endangered lowland rainforest regional ecosystems and habitat for the Richmond birdwing butterfly Ornithoptera richmondia.
An Environment Levy Investment of $1.1m was allocated to coastal protection works and dune rehabilitation. $740,000 was invested into invasive species research, action and community engagement, $325,000 in Landholder Environment Grants for 103 private landholders to undertake on-ground projects and $220,000 invested into erosion, sediment control and waterway protection.
Environment and Liveability Portfolio Cr
Maria Suarez said $610,000 was allocated to 19 projects “undertaken in partnership with dedicated volunteers, landholders, community groups and research organisations who share council’s interest in creating a legacy that will benefit our community for decades to come”. Read the 2021/2022 Environment Levy Annual Report on council’s website. Ruth Hickey
Within the Blue Heart Sunshine Coast project area 19 hectares expanded the Coolum Creek Environment Reserve to 465 hectares, protecting Maroochy River riparian habitat and providing opportunity to consolidate connectivity of the Maroochy-Noosa Wallum biodiversity corridor.

Why the Camino de Santiago PART 2
In my 38 year career in the RAAF, I was not known for my touchy-feely side – but the Camino has a way of finding the softer and more fundamental human aspects of your persona – this is the true attraction of The Way. It is essentially an exercise in human engagement with the walk as just the vehicle. Pilgrims - and yes you become that, not merely a hiker – from everywhere on Earth and of every faith complete the walk. You see people at their best – open, friendly, non-judgemental, willing to help (Camino Angels) and always ready to personally engage regularly very deeply and very quickly, a very pleasant if initially a little confronting experience. Many Pilgrims have truly life-changing experiences on The Way – it is not compulsory though – you just need to be receptive and engaging and this ‘human-ness’ will soon manifest itself.
Friends are made in minutes and friendships last as short as a few hours to a lifetime – no matter the length, the intensity of person-to person engagement, the Camino Camraderie, is THE best aspect of the walk. Your Camino family –those who you find walking with you – become very close to you very quickly and become very important to your enjoyment of The Way.
It does help to have a knowledge of the historic religious fundamentals of The Way – it is littered after all with magnificent Cathedrals and Churches. Go to a Spanish Mass, for the colour and engagement if not for the Sacrament – it is all part of the theatre of the pilgrimage. Learn a few common words of Spanish – that helps and my Camino Spanglish suffices enough to engage with the friendly locals. Of them and all the volunteers (hospitalieros) who staff the
20 TRAVEL
albergues, just remember: a Pilgrim is grateful –a Tourist demands.
Each of the around 33 days (on average) walking becomes very repetitive and very simple: walk, eat, drink, sleep, repeat. Life narrows down to the essentials and the outside world slips away. I always take my smart phone, but I can also see the attraction of not doing so – just letting the natural rhythms of the day and your body determine how far to walk and when to rest and sleep.
This Simplicity affords lotsa time for the next big Camino revelation – Introspection. Whether you walk by yourself or with a group - there are many hours alone with your innermost thoughts – somewhat daunting at first, but we rarely have enough time here at home in our busy daily lives to really think about what drives us and what we truly need from life. The rhythm of the crunch, crunch, crunch of your steps is soporific and aids this valuable opportunity – just leave the headphones out of your ears!
As Santiago approaches you are a mix of excited and sad. Proud to have mastered the path – no matter how far or how long you have walked, (the only Camino ‘rule’ is that the last 100Km is the minimum for the Compostela, the Certificate of Pilgrimage), and aware that this is all coming to an end. Sure, you can continue down to the coast to Cape Finisterre and even then to Muxia – a great extra 4 or 5 days, but the Obradoiro Plaza in front of the magnificent and recently fully restored Cathedral is where your practical and emotional Camino ends. Close Caminomade friends depart for the 4 corners and you are left to suffer noticeable withdrawal en-route to Oz.
If you haven’t got the Camino bug by the time you land home, and if you haven’t already started to plan your next one – check that you really have a heart.
I am always available to bore you to death with Camino stories, details of what I take, how I plan and the like. Contact me through Greg Ison (who stitched me up for this short article – thanks Mate!) at Eumundi Voice. Give me a call if you need some advice – but Nike yourself – just do it. Buen Camino Peregrino/a. Geoff Shepherd

Us girls made up dances and skipped rope to nursery rhymes. The boys’ yard sounded much more fun.
We learned to read from Janet and John books and sat on the wooden floor as the teacher read Little Black Sambo or The Jungle Book while puffing on her cigarettes. A library van called once a month and we chose a book to borrow because few families owned books. My parents bought a whole set of Encyclopaedia Britannica from a travelling salesman. I used them throughout my school years. I devoured every bit of knowledge I could, even reading our toilet paper which was torn-up newspapers.
Our thunderbox toilets were a hole in a wooden
board with a bucket of soil underneath. I spent one afternoon learning to whistle in there, forgotten by the teacher. We had no tuckshop and free school dinners were only at high school. We did get a free a 1/3-pint bottle of milk. I was 'milk monitor' to avoid drinking mine and made a roster for who got it.
How I envy today’s students with TV, internet, videos, documentaries, re-creations of events and all the incredible wonders of this world at their fingertips. We became the only family in the village with a television, bought by my parents to watch the Queen’s coronation. Schooldays for us were tough but the lessons we learned were invaluable.

Her kind, attentive and gentle manner was reassuring all the way, and her knowledge of the market and skill in applying that, meant that we got the best outcome possible. We couldn’t recommend her more highly.

WINES AND REGIONS
history and the region is famed for its rich, sturdy Cabernets etched in dark berry fruit, mint and dried herbs.
How to choose a good wine?
When perusing the many styles, varieties and regions of wine at your local bottleshop, how do you choose a good wine?
This is challenging as most often we tend to select the tried and true. With the gamut of varieties available it is impossible to cover each one but hopefully this article will encourage some adventure in your future selections.
Cabernet Sauvignon A somewhat regal status variety, Cabernet Sauvignon has the ability to express a unique character nearly anywhere it’s planted but not all Cabernets are created equal. There is the muscle and opulence of the Napa Valley where it is known as the “king of grapes” compared to the Bordeaux where its presence has been long and more complex.
In Australia two different and distinctive Cabernet kingdoms have evolved – Margaret River and Coonawarra. Margaret River produces medium-bodied Cabernets of elegance, complexity and transparency. Almost all wear a crown of briny sea spray, pencil lead, eucalyptus and currant. Coonawarra has 130 years of wine
Shiraz If you are looking for a Shiraz, the Barossa has a rich history dating back to 1842. The Barossa is loved around the world for bold Shiraz wines bursting with flavour and character. McLaren Vale Shiraz is the region’s signature wine. It’s renowned for its velvety texture and intense berry flavours but really there’s no such thing as a typical McLaren Vale Shiraz because of the diversity of soil types and micro-climates. The Shiraz wines from Clare Valley, slightly cooler temperature wines, are a charm in a glass with a richness and vibrancy that makes them truly unforgettable.
Pinot Noir If your choice is a Pinot Noir, cooler climate regions have proven to be marvellously compatible with Pinot Noir. The Hunter Valley is the birthplace of Australian wine. Fast forward to today and this Australian wine region is defined by its rich historical lineage and an exciting new generation of innovative young winemakers.
Yarra Valley Pinot Noir is a standout among Yarra Valley wines and the most planted variety in the region. The many micro-climates of Victoria’s original wine region result in a spectrum of premium Pinot Noir styles from light, fragrant and fruity to savoury and structured. Adelaide Hills has an abundance of growing sites and aspects resulting in a diversity of styles from the savoury and herbaceous, to ripe, vibrant and fruity. Also worth a try is the Great Southern Region of WA producing a premium Pinot Noir that ranges from rich and fruit-driven to lighter primary fruit styles.

Chardonnay Chardonnay is a variety definitely worth revisiting. Top-rated wines from the Margaret River can be recognised by their dusty, lemon sherbet, cut pear, dried pear and fig flavours. Other regions for top chardonnays include the Mornington Peninsula, Yarra Valley, Eden Valley, Great Southern and Adelaide Hills. The cool climate allows the fruit to mature slowly but fully with crisp citrus, lemon and green apple characteristics. The other best international regions are the USA, Chile, South Africa, France and Italy.
Pinot Gris Pinot Gris doesn’t have to worry about its popularity rating. In Australia it is one of the fastest growing retail categories. Look out for varieties from Tasmania, Mornington Peninsula, Yarra Valley, Adelaide Hills and Orange which are all produced from high quality fruit. The Alsace region of France produces some of the best Pinot Gris wine grapes.
Verdelho Verdelho varieties come from the island of Madeira, an autonomous Portuguese outpost off the coast of Morocco and were imported to Australia in 1825. While Australian Verdelho is grown from coast to coast, two states are generally recognised as the producers of the finest examples. Western Australia, particularly the Margaret River and Swan Valley regions, produces beautiful Verdelhos which tend towards golden apple and citrus zest, tropical notes and floral spice. In NSW the Hunter Valley Verdelho displays lovely acidity and floral tropical fruit flavours.
I also suggest reading the back label when you have selected your wine. Visit: Wine Press #1: info@winepress1.com.

Backward glance at Eumundi
The name Eumundi is thought to be derived from "Ngumundi" or "Huomundy", the name of a local Aboriginal warrior said to have adopted an escaped convict, Bracefield, as his son in 1831. From the early 1850s, almost all the area in the vicinity of the Eumundi district was part of three cattle runsCanando, Yandina and North Kenilworth. The first selectors to reside permanently in the Eumundi district were Joseph and George Gridley in 1879. By 1900, shops started to appear in the town, streets were formed and the town businesses developed. With the railway from Yandina to Cooroy opening in 1891 and the road to the north passing through it, Eumundi developed as an important centre of the timber and dairy industry. For more details on the history of this beautiful town and others throughout the Sunshine Coast, visit Council's heritage website at heritage.sunshinecoast.qld.gov.au.
