Hi Everyone...
What's Happening July 2018
on the Cover
As I write my column on Friday afternoon, I have to say I am a little distracted with my internal countdown to the weekend – thinking about all that I am planning to do. I was recently chatting to Fiona Cran, the School Chaplain from Glasshouse Country Christian College, who told me all about the upcoming Mega Garage Sale that the Glasshouse Country Baptist Church is holding on August 4. It should be a great day of bargains, with a jumping castle and food as well as an opportunity to raise funds for the Beerwah and Beerburrum school chaplains, Mike Turner and Steph Alksne. As an avid recycler and re-user I think it is great to have a garage sale as a fundraiser, and to ask the community for suitable donations to sell. I say this as someone who has quite a few items at home that I really don’t need, but which are still in good working order. So, it looks like I will be doing a bit of very early spring cleaning this weekend. If you are like me and also have suitable items for the Mega Garage Sale, all you need to do is drop them down at the Baptist Church in Roberts Road at Beerwah between 8am and 8pm on Friday August 3. Regards, Peachester State School student, Montana, helps with planting at last year’s National Tree Day See story page 31

Glasshouse Country & Maleny News
Local News Fortunate escape in Glass House During a busy Friday night at Frankie J’s Pizza at Glass House Mountains, staff and customers narrowly escaped injury when a four-wheel drive vehicle crashed through the front of the business, smashing into the wall between them and the IGA supermarket next door. Once the shock of the incident had passed, the business owners Debbie Franks and Brian Lord were absolutely thankful that no one had been seriously injured. Debbie said it was a miracle, as if it had happened five minutes earlier or had the collision involved the gas lines that operate the ovens, there would have been a different story. Emergency services were called to the scene in Reed Street, Glass House Mountains about 7.30pm on Friday.

Beerwah sign makeover Have you noticed the rejuvenated Welcome to Beerwah entry statement at the Steve Irwin Way Roys Road intersection? Back in November 2011, Glasshouse Country News ran a front page story on its installation, featuring the local councillor at the time, Anna Grosskreutz, unveiling the new sign with Sarah Rayner, the Maleny artist responsible for the design. It marked the start of the ‘Place +’ project which eventually saw the redevelopment the Simpson Street CBD area, including the large colourful timber Beerwah entry sign at the roundabout. To bring the Steve Irwin Way sign into line with
Tax Tip # 4 Move your business into a better structure for tax
the Beerwah township theme, current Division 1 Councillor Rick Baberowski instigated the current refresh of the design. “With the entry statement not working as effectively as we’d like it to, it was time to bring the sign to life,” said Cr Baberowski. “The upgrade is designed to fit within the vocabulary of the Beerwah theme, and people will recognise the colour. “To get the most from the sign, lighting is being installed which will be fully operational very soon.” The funds for the upgrade were provided by Cr Baberowski from his Divisional funds.
The tax rules give small business the chance to move from one structure to another without triggering tax. If you are a sole trader or partnership, you may be ready to move your business to a company or trust for business and tax reasons. Come in and speak to Brett or give him a call if this could be good for your business.

Glasshouse Country & Maleny News
Towers okay next to childcare centres and schools, according to Council In last week’s letters page, Jim Straker from Maleny raised some concerns with proposed changes to the Sunshine Coast Planning Scheme, specifically relating to softening provisions for controlling where telecommunication facilities (i.e. mobile phone and NBN towers) are permitted to be constructed. Deep within the 94-page document outlining a raft of proposed amendments to the Planning Scheme, Jim discovered some fundamental changes to the Telecommunications Facility Code. The code was written so as to make sure that these telecommunication towers – which emit and receive electromagnetic radio frequencies – are sited away from “sensitive land uses”. The key to this was a distance setback from a range of land uses and facilities such as schools, childcare centre, community centres, residential areas, parks and pathways. But now, Sunshine Coast Council wants to take out a reference to the term “sensitive land uses” as well as specifically deleting “childcare centre”, “community care centre” and “educational establishment” from the code. This effectively means that these towers, which once had to be kept 500m away from places where children were spending much of their day, could now be located adjacent to – or even within – a childcare centre, school or other such facility.
As Jim asks in his letter, “Why would such vulnerable sections of the community (i.e. children) be excluded?” When asked for a rationale behind the changes, a Council spokesperson explained that they were in response to an earlier internal review of the code which relates to visual amenity being given greater relevance. “Due to community interest generated from various development applications for telecommunications towers in the Sunshine Coast hinterland areas, the review considered the intent and outcomes of the telecommunications facility code,” said the spokesperson. “In particular, it was determined that some refinements to the telecommunications facility code were required to clarify that the setback distances mentioned in the code are, in essence, about protecting the visual amenity of nearby residential uses and public spaces and are not related to health and safety considerations, which are separately dealt with in the code.” The review went to a full Council meeting for ratification last October. In the same suite of changes, Council has flagged that multiple dwelling and rooming accommodation developments will need to provide more onsite parking.
An example of these residential developments is the controversial proposal at 37 Maleny Street, Landsborough (pictured above). Under the current planning scheme (which the 37 Maleny Street proposal is being assessed against), multiple dwelling developments only have to provide one carpark per unit and rooming accommodation developments one car space per six rooming beds. In the proposed planning scheme changes (which the 37 Maleny Street proposal won’t be assessed against) the rooming accommodation category will need to provide one car space per two beds. The multiple dwelling developments will be subjected to a sliding scale depending on how many bedrooms there are per unit. For every one-bedroom unit, one car space will be needed; 2-bedroom units will require 1.25 spaces; three bedrooms 1.5 car spaces; and four-plus bedrooms two car parks per unit.

After months of planning, a 3D photogrammetry study and an archaeological investigation, work has begun to restore the state heritage-listed shed at Bankfoot House at Glass House Mountains. Constructed by William Burgess in 1935, the condition of the shed had deteriorated significantly in recent times due to the building materials used, timber decay, termite infestation and ground water damage. Sunshine Coast Council’s $250,000 Cultural Heritage Levy funded conservation project involves the careful replacement of building fabric that is beyond repair, repair and re-use of fabric that can be saved and the sensitive incorporation of new material. Mayor Mark Jamieson said: “To commemorate this historical milestone, our Cultural Heritage team is developing a revised, contemporary, interpretation plan for the site, which will include new displays in the shed, Bankfoot House and the Mary Grigor Centre. “Preserving and maintaining this piece of our region’s history and restoring the shed is an important legacy for current and future generations as it helps to ensure the story of this site is retained,” he said. Heritage Portfolio Councillor Rick Baberowski said detailed investigative work was undertaken to plan the restoration project. “When planning for the shed restoration, archaeological research was conducted in and around the shed to determine whether there was
any significant material beneath the ground,” Cr Baberowski said. “Amongst the many artefacts you would expect to find in a shed, such as nails, screws and metal fragments, the archaeologists also made an exciting and unexpected discovery, uncovering a cobblestone floor and fragments of nineteenth century ceramics. “The cobblestone floor pre-dates the shed construction and we believe it may have been from a pig shed and butchery located on this part of the site. “We are now going to incorporate a viewing window as a part of the new interpretation plan so visitors can see a section of the cobblestones uncovered during the archaeological exploration.” Restoration work is due to be complete in time for the Bankfoot House sesquicentenary celebration event on October 14.

$1.5 million for specialist eating disorder facility
DENTURE CLINIC
The Federal Government will provide $1.5 million for Australia’s first residential eating disorder treatment facility on the Sunshine Coast at Mooloolah Valley, helping hundreds of patients each year. The joint project led by Sunshine-Coast-based endED organisation and the Butterfly Foundation will establish endED Butterfly House. Minister for Health Greg Hunt said the facility will be located on the Sunshine Coast because the region has a particularly high rate of people with eating disorders and a substantial need for services. “This centre will provide specialist care to hundreds of people experiencing eating disorders, through in-patient and best practice treatment programs,” Mr Hunt said. “It will advance the way eating disorders are diagnosed and treated, providing 24/7 intensive care and support as well as training, education and advocacy at the 12-bed facility. “It will also include rooms for recreation, family therapy and group therapy.” Member for Fisher Andrew Wallace said eating disorders can be devastating, not only affecting an individual’s relationship with food, but also their body image, confidence, mental health and overall health. “Many suffer in silence with only 25% of people with eating disorders thought to be diagnosed,” Mr Wallace said.

Andrew Wallace MP with endED's Mark Forbes and Millie Thomas at the project’s Mooloolah Valley site “The centre’s location has been specifically chosen for its rural location. “It will provide a peaceful and home-like environment for the residential centre, which will operate as a not for profit facility.” Construction is set to start this year with endED Butterfly House expected to open in early 2020. Mr Wallace said the local council and community have been supportive of the establishment of a residential facility, providing considerable assistance in getting the project started. “The project has so far raised $1.3 million in philanthropic funding and has received hundreds of thousands of dollars in donated services and in-kind support,” Mr Wallace said. “My hope is that endED Butterfly House will become a leading light and model for other residential eating disorder centres across the country.”

Business News Bank staff support kids in foster care
Local staff at CommBank Beerwah Branch took their support for the Pyjama Foundation seriously last Friday when they came to work dressed in their PJs as part of the National Pyjama Day campaign. The Pyjama Foundation provides a one-on-one mentoring program to children in foster care who desperately need assistance with reading, writing and building confidence. Sadly, there are more than 51,000 Australian children currently living in foster care. Research shows that 75% of children are not finishing school. The Pyjama Foundation’s literacy and numeracy programs are designed to try and reverse this trend.
Update with Nicole Hilton Chamber President
Did you know that Sunshine Coast Airport is Australia’s fastest growing airport? Guests at the recent Maleny Commerce Breakfast had the opportunity to get a really great insight into the Sunshine Coast Airport operations and future plans with Steve Prasser, General Manager of Commercial and Aviation, making an interesting presentation. The growth in international passenger movements at Australia’s top 10 airports has outpaced growth in domestic passengers for more than a decade, and for the past five years the gap has been widening. The Asia-Pacific market is expected to account for 41% of new passenger aircraft deliveries between 2017 and 2036. As passenger airlines increasingly look to improve their margins by utilising their belly hold cargo space, Sunshine Coast Airport will be working with the region’s primary producers and manufacturing industries, as well as tourism operators, to jointly attract new international services. This in turn builds regional economic diversification and employment, as well as tourism. Our second presenter, Rachel Meyer, Director of International Marketing, Visit Sunshine Coast, who is based in Singapore, presented the facts and figures surrounding the regional Australia and international tourist markets with some interesting statistics. While food and wine are a big tourist pull which has led the way for some years now, a national and international visitors survey showed that
CommBank Beerwah staff, Jade Philips, Kathleen Kraut, Sonya Loader and (front) Sarah Simpson, go to work in their PJs for a great cause
over a five-year period nature and wildlife had the biggest growth of 10.6% compared to a 7.4% increase for food and wine. Culture and Heritage was the next biggest growth area with a 7.9% increase. The Sunshine Coast certainly delivers in the nature and wildlife section. Rachel spoke about the vision to continue to position Queensland’s Sunshine Coast as Australia’s premium revitalisation leisure and business events destination. It was interesting to see how our region is being marketed to the world. To sum it up, it was a great breakfast meeting and great to see many members and other business people take part in the event.
What: The next General Meeting is a joint breakfast meeting with Maleny Commerce When: Wednesday August 8 Where: Spicers Clovelly Estate, 38 Balmoral
Road, Montville, from 7.15am-9am. The guest speaker is Andrew Fairbairn of Visit Sunshine Coast talking on the topic of 'Welcoming the World to our Sunshine Coast Hinterland'.
Cost: Cost is $20 for members of either chamber, $25 for non-members.
RSVP: August 6 by emailing to

Canetoad Cruisers
Following up on local entrants in this year’s Great Endeavour Rally, GC&M News caught up with Mount Mellum’s Nigel and Gayle Pattinson who competed under the team moniker of ‘Canetoad Cruisers’. Raising a whopping $52,000, this team of highly motivated fundraisers has been awarded ‘Highest Fundraiser’ for the second year in a row. Q: Why the name Canetoad Cruisers? A: We are avid Queensland fans (Gayle is a sixth generation Queenslander) so hence the ‘Canetoad’, and we are in a 1986 60 Series Toyota Landcruiser and therefore that’s the ‘Cruisers’. Q: How did you get involved with the Rally? A: It is something that we had thought about doing for a while and the opportunity arose through a connection with CGU Insurance and we bought the car and ran with it from there. Q: How many years have you entered in the Rally? A: Two years – 2017 and 2018. Q: Do you have the same vehicle and can you tell us a bit more about it? A: Yes – It’s a 1986 Toyota Landcruiser with a 12HT motor and Tough Dog Air Suspension. Nigel has spent a lot of time getting it ‘Rally Ready’ with all the necessary safety gear and equipment such as snatch straps and extra water and fuel storage.
Q: You mentioned that last year you were the Highest Fundraiser – can you tell us a bit more about this achievement and what you raised this year? A: Last year we were awarded the Highest Fundraiser trophy, raising $58,000, and we also were awarded the best all round new entrant trophy. This year we raised $52,000 which ended us up as the Highest Fundraisers again with a total of $110,000 over two years which is thanks to our wonderful sponsors – CGU Insurance, Noja Power, Yatala Pie Shop and Positive Fire Protection (our company) along with our supportive friends and family and business associates. Q: Any key highlights or challenges from the trip to share? A: We stayed at Wallangarra which is right on the Qld/NSW border (on the Queensland side of course) on our first night. We travelled only 350km but still took until 3.30pm to get in due to some pretty rough, narrow and windy tracks. With minus-2 degrees overnight and 15 to 20km per hour winds, sleeping in the tent was interesting! The next day we had a journalist from News Corp join us in our car for the day. There was lots of wildlife and cattle about on the tracks and on day two a wallaby decided to bound off the side of the car in
three places before jumping away into the bush! Half way through the last stage we started getting a nasty clunking noise from the rear diff. The army caught up with us and removed the tail shaft and we crawled our way into Burren Junction. Collereina Hall, Ballimore and Lake Keepit were highlights for overnight stays with all of the locals putting on great nights for us. Dubbo Zoo was awesome, especially the lion feeding. We went through Bogan Shire all dressed as Bogans for the day and visited the giant Bogan. Q: Anything else you’d like our readers to know? A: We would recommend joining up for the rally to anyone who has been considering it – it’s great fun, you meet lots of great people and all money raised helps the Endeavour Foundation. Q: Planning next year already? A: Yes! We have started planning for next year already which is in July and starts in Bundaberg and heads out to Julia Creek and Karumba and ends in Townsville.

Community News Chooks get their own book
By Sonia Clark Beerwah children’s author Nicole Madeley has recently launched her first self-published book, 'Gloria has Grit and Gets the Goods'. This is the first title in a planned series of seven 'Chooks on a Mission’ books targeted at early childhood readers from Prep to Year 2. The books draw upon everyday life on a farm based on Nicole’s family experience. The books focus on the characters of Gloria and Edwina, two spirited chickens “whose adventures take them far from the farmyard and into the hearts of little readers”. Nicole says that the characters are based on actual chickens the family had while her children were growing up. “I love chooks and I think they make great characters,” she said. “They are particularly relatable for children and allow children to use their imagination and see life from a different perspective.” Nicole has spent over a decade working in early education and has worked for many years as a Prep Teacher’s Aide. She says her work has had a massive influence on her book and how it has been rewritten and designed. Nicole says she wanted to create a series of books that teach a different lesson about the many emotions and challenges we face in every-day life while also looking at different letter and sound combinations. Written for children, but with teachers and parents in mind, each book will have an instructional page, questions and activities and look at a different set of sounds with a strong focus on developing phonemic awareness. Nicole has recently completed a round of library readings with the next reading scheduled at Caboolture Library on Monday September 17. More details at eley Mad le www.nicolemadeleyauthorau.com.

Huge response to Zonta’s Birthing Kit assembly day
Zonta Club of Blackall Range President Julie Bevan was Zontian Tina Rhode with Linda overwhelmed by the community Costello (Hospital Auxiliary) and response to the recent birthing kit Zontian Carolyn Williams assembly day with more than 65 women coming along on the day to assemble 1,600 kits. The organisations who responded to the call out for help included Quota, CWA, Hospital Auxiliary, Uniting Church, Maleny Community Gym, Range Readers, Sunstone ladies, Maleny Garden Club, and a family from Buderim whose mother is studying midwifery at USC. The history of the Birthing Kit Foundation Australia (BKFA) has a background within Zonta in Australia. An Adelaide doctor, Joy O’Hazy, inspired by a talk by actor Sally Field at the 1995 UN Women’s conference in Beijing, researched the products needed and sought the support of the Zonta Club of Adelaide Hills. The first 100 kits were assembled by the members of that club in 1999, for distribution in PNG. Zontian June Robson, who organises the program on the Range, explained that you start with a small zip lock bag and a box of plastic sheets one metre square. “Our members take these items home and fold the sheets into the bags. This has to be precise, because a hundred kits have to fit exactly into the delivery box,” she said. “On assembly day the volunteers put in a pair of gloves, a piece of soap to wash the attendants’ hands, three pieces of gauze to wash the baby’s face, a scalpel and three pieces of string to tie the umbilical cord. “This simple pack has saved the lives of hundreds of thousands of babies and their mothers in developing countries the world over. It is a program of which Zonta is, and has a right to be, immensely proud, and we at Blackall Range are proud also to be part of it. “We want to thank all those people who volunteered at our recent assembly,” she said.

Women among the ‘angry men’ The Maleny Players have been busy with rehearsals for their next production of ‘Twelve Angry Men’, by Reginald Rose and adapted by Sherman Segel. When the curtain opens the audience may be surprised to see females playing three of the jurors in this famous drama about a murder trial. The play was originally written for American television. The well-known film starring Henry Fonda retained the all-male jury. Subsequently, the play was adapted for the stage with an option for females in some roles. In fact an all-female version exists. Producer Andrew Wallace explained that these days a jury would most likely be mixed and seems more natural. “Although we are preserving the 1950s feel of the play in most respects, we had talented local women eager for a part,” he said. “In any case, the change of gender makes very little difference. The dialogue is mostly unchanged and there is still a clash of different personalities.” When: Friday August 10 at 7pm, Saturday

Blue Light in the news!! We are very excited about our next Blue Light event this Friday July 27. We have had a request from Channel 7 News to come and get some footage for their feature on Blue Lights ‘Then and now’. It will be great to show everyone what awesome kids we have here in the Hinterland and what a fantastic event we have as well. So, come on down to the Beerwah Community Hall from 7pm until 9pm and show them how we party in Beerwah. Don’t forget you can also win some great prizes including personal electronics and passes to our local attractions. Please, please, please… I know I sound like a broken record but I can’t stress enough how important it is for everyone to lock their homes and vehicles. We are seeing an increase in unlawful entries of both vehicles and dwellings and it is very frustrating for police when owners have made the criminals’ job
easier by leaving the car or home unsecured. We are fortunate to live in an area with a relatively low crime rate, let’s not help and encourage offenders by making ourselves easy targets. If you would like some advice on how to keep your home or business safe, call Beerwah Police, we are happy to give advice. Our piece of paradise Having been fortunate enough to travel to quite a few different places over the years and having recently returned from France, Germany and the UK, it really hits home how lucky we are to live in a place like the Sunshine Coast and I am certainly grateful to work here. Seeing the sort of equipment and firepower the police officers were carrying around was sometimes a bit confronting and I’m not sure how keen I’d be to put it all on each shift. Lucky for all of us, that’s not our reality in Queensland. It’s always fun to travel but it’s good to be home.

Busy month for Beerwah Lions
Contributed by Bob Banner At their monthly dinner meeting Beerwah Lions looked back at a busy month. Lion John Nesbit received recognition for his efforts in introducing new members to the world of Lionism. Our guest speaker for the evening was Kylie Pinwill, a nutritionist who gave a highly interesting address. She urged everyone to get back to basics with food; eating fresh whole foods helps with healthy ageing and long term well-being. Club members also undertook other fundraising Guest speaker activities by assisting with car parking at the recent Kyli e Pinwill Queensland Garden Expo held at Nambour and also conducted their twice monthly barbeques at Bunnings Hardware. In June our group sent off 226 kilos of empty aluminium cans for recycling, rather than becoming landfill. We also continue to collect discarded spectacles at Beerwah Spec Savers, The Beerwah Recycle Centre and Landsborough Chemist. These are sent to underprivileged countries to help restore vision to needy people.
Mooloolah’s Walking Group
Contributed by Helen Weil The Mooloolah Mob started regularly walking in November 2004 and here we are in 2018, still walking each Monday, Wednesday and Friday mornings at 6.45am during winter (returning to a 6.30am start in September). We meet at Martin Rungert Park, right in the centre of town, and walk a variety of routes around the local area. Walking is for about an hour and it is a great way to start the day and to make new friends. This is a National Heart Foundation group activity with certificates and awards for number of walks and attaining certain goals. Most of all it is about staying active and healthy in a friendly social environment. You don’t have to walk every day, or for the whole hour – just do as much as you feel you can. We have our speedy walkers who cover a greater distance and we have our less speedy walkers who maintain a more average pace but we all walk and that is what is important. Please consider coming along to enjoy the social aspect of belonging to a friendly group as well as the health benefits of regular walking. New walkers always welcome. We do hope to see you soon. For more details phone Annie on 5492 9359.

Entertainment for all at Charity Sports
Home on the Range
Maleny’s Don English is justifiably proud of his family home, ‘Fairview’ (Pattemore House), and his enduring connection to the property and he is keen to encourage locals and visitors to enjoy the opportunity to see the house themselves when it is open this Saturday between 1pm and 4pm. Don and Jan English with The home was built from white beech felled his mum Emily English’s on the property back in 1907, by Don’s portrait grandfather Ernest Pattemore and his four brothers, for their parents, JR and Emily Pattemore. Don’s mother, Emily English (nee Pattemore) was responsible for gaining State Heritage listing for the house back in 2003. Today the house is owned by Sunshine Coast Council. Over the past decade Fairview has been transformed into a successful heritage tourism venture by the Friends of Pattemore House, a volunteer group of which Don is a committee member. The house has been preserved so that future generations can experience and enjoy a fine example of an early Maleny farmhouse, learn about its construction, the lives of the families who lived there, and its links with early Maleny history. Pattemore House at 15 Porters Lane, Maleny is open to the public from 1pm to 4pm on the last Saturday of every month. Entry is $5 for adults and children are free. There is plenty of parking, disabled Come and chat to our deli team today!access is available and afternoon teas can be purchased. (Photos courtesy of Marsha Fotografie) Don English at Fairview today

Cup carrier using recycled materials
Thanks to Lea for including the article about my cup carriers in last week’s paper. I just wanted to explain my reason for making them – I was observing people balancing coffee/ tea takeaways plus carrying other goods and it wasn’t easy for them. Second reason – observing the huge number of takeaways in a two hour period, we need to be more aware of waste! Third reason – to use up my bits and pieces in

Ideally, I would love to see companies use this idea using company slogans on the product, eliminating paper use. For further information, call me on 5493 0506. Lorna Buxton Glass House Mountains

Golf is a perennial source of contention in Maleny. For supporters, the problem is often phrased as 'anti-elitism', as if golf was an elite sport played by elite people at elite clubs, even in humble Maleny. For the detractors, the problem is not so much golf as the fact that most of the land usable for recreation on the Maleny Precinct excluding environment protected areas is tied up by the course (even the EPAs have been compromised by the course but that's another story). Nine holes would have sufficed for a town this size, but a plan approved by Council eight years ago provided for 18 holes and by gum, that's what we'll get, never mind the modest number of players and the budget shortfall for community spaces and amenities, not only in Maleny but in other Division 5 towns like Mooloolah. Some golf club members appear to have their doubts, judging by a survey in late 2017 which
New home for old lock up
The Maleny Cultural and Historical Society has recently become the proud owner of the Maleny historical jail lock up. With the completion of the Maleny new Police Station back in 2017 and the sale of the old police station, the Queensland Government
decided that the old jail should be preserved. The building was recently relocated from its location in Maple Street, to its new home at the Historical Village. We would like to acknowledge the generous efforts and support of both Queensland House Removers and Ross Hopper who completed the task of removing and transporting the building. This is another wonderful example of businesses
Clubs Reward Program
Maleny Credit Union has put over $10,000 back into the community through our Clubs Reward Program. Here is what some of the recipients are saying: “Thanks to the community and MCU for the support. The Maleny Bushrangers take pride in promoting and supporting Rugby Union in the Maleny district and the funds we have received have enabled the club to upgrade necessary equipment.” Tony Arnold, President. “MCU is not just a bank. Without hesitation it gives back to the Maleny community, including financially. MCU also understands the significance of the ‘Maleny way of life’. Thanks for the donations to Maleny and Blackall Range Lions Club.” Chris Sang, President. “Your donations help us continue to care for and re-home thousands of Sunshine Coast cats and dogs who have been abandoned, abused, and surrendered. We are a no kill refuge. They are well looked after,

rated a clubhouse with a liquor licence as the top priority, well above more holes. Despite that, and despite faltering membership and high maintenance costs, the president has announced a six hole expansion “over the next two years” to bring the course to 18 holes. By gum. Cr Jenny McKay has advised our campaign that the $225,000 grant made to the club in the latest budget will be used for "agreed works” for one year, 2018-19. This exceeds by $40,000 the tranche limit set in 2016. Why? And what happens in 2019-20? Us ratepayers are paying for this!

Local Eats with Lea Parkes
Vianta Espresso & Wine Bar
When Steve Moon first opened Glass House Mountains Coffee and Tea on Steve Irwin Way back in 2014, I knew he was keen to bring something new and unique to the area. He clearly had lots of creative energy and plenty of ‘big plans’ and these days, sitting in his Vianta Espresso & Wine Bar in Turner Street at Beerwah enjoying the mellow atmosphere on a Friday and Saturday night, it is obvious that Steve knew what he was on about and has created a really special place that the local area really embraced. Originally, when Steve opened Vianta Espresso, just in time for the official opening of Beerwah’s revamped main street, the focus was on the daytime café business while opening one Friday evening a month for openings of their Vianta Arts Exhibitions. However these days they are open every day and Friday and Saturday night they are open late with great live music, delicious food, a contemporary menu, tasting plates and the lounge bar is fully licenced.

Hinterland Kids A ‘beary’ special playgroup
Contributed by Helen White The weather was glorious and the teddies were feeling very mischievous last Wednesday morning at the Coonowrin Kids Playgroup at the Glass House Charlotte Mountains School. They wanted to go on a bear hunt from playgroup over to the school oval for a Teddy Bears’ Picnic. They blew bubbles, the children tossed their teddies in the air on the parachute, played musical bears and shared a beary scrumdidlyumptious morning tea that the parents provided. There was also a photo booth so the bears and their owners could dress up for their photos, and the children made teddy bear necklaces, sang songs and read a story all about teddy bears. If you would like to join the playgroup they would love to welcome you along. They meet on Wednesdays from 9am-11am during school terms. You can contact the school for any inquiries on 5439 3222 or visit the group’s Facebook page, ‘Coonowrin Kids Playgoup’. Ivy
Tibro’s Netball players represent district
Contributed by Britt Holley Over a four day period in July, four girls from the Tibro’s Netball Club represented the Caloundra District at the State Netball Championships at Ipswich with teams coming from as far away as Cairns and western Queensland. Kaitlin Morris (Under 12 Division 2), Adelie Tomokino (Under 12 Division 2), Isabel Holley (Under 15 Division 2) and Boni Gray (Under 15 Division 1) played their hearts out during 12 games of netball. Watching 336 players across 24 courts all playing simultaneously from 8am to 8pm daily was quite a sight. All four girls improved their techniques through a comprehensive training program and their teams excelled. In pools of 30 teams, Under 15 Division 1 came eighth, Under 15 Division 2 came eighth and Under 12 Division 2 came sixteenth. This was a great effort and all of the girls are looking forward to other netball opportunities.
Connecting through dance Students from Landsborough's Black Swan School of Dance recently visited the residents of Glasshouse Views Retirement Village as a part of the school's ‘Connecting Through Dance’ community project. In addition to putting on a mini concert, the students demonstrated dancing technique and spoke with residents about their time at the dance school and the many things they love about their classes. Director of the Dance School, Rebecca Willshire, said she and the girls were delighted to spend time with the residents, many of whom remain enthusiastic dancers. “I believe that having a strong connection to your community is important and I am proud to be able to give my students the opportunity to feel that connection through dance,” she said. To find out more about Black Swan School of Dance, which caters for students as young as 2 ½ years old in its kinder classes, or to organise a performance at your local community event, phone 0409 673 559.

Health &Wellbeing Have your say on sugary drinks
This month Cancer Council Queensland and the Heart Foundation launched an Everyday Health Survey on sugar-sweetened beverages, aiming to identify consumer habits, determine understanding of the health impacts of sugary drinks, and assess support for proposed regulations to reduce consumption of these products. The findings will enable organisations to develop new campaigns and advocate for regulations that will positively impact the health of Queenslanders. Cancer Council Queensland CEO Chris McMillan is encouraging people to speak out and have their say on the future of sugary drinks. “Sugar-sweetened beverages are a major source of sugar in the Australian diet – yet we know that these beverages have little or no nutritional value, provide excess energy, and lead to weight gain,” she said. “Although many factors influence obesity, research indicates sugary drinks play a significant role in driving up rates – which is an established risk factor for chronic diseases, including cancer. “It’s our priority to combat this weighty issue, and advocate for changes in our community including marketing restrictions and a 20% levy on sugary drinks. “If you live in Queensland and are 18 and over, don’t miss out on having your say. Complete the survey at www.cancerqld.org.au/ everydayhealthsurvey by July 31.”

Health Check Is snoring a problem for you? with McCloy Dental
Snoring is one of the most common reasons that we see people for an oral appliance for sleep. Other than the annoying noise, most would consider snoring to be a mostly harmless condition, but this is not always the case. Snoring during pregnancy increases the risk of gestational diabetes, pre-eclampsia, and pregnancy induced hypertension. In children habitual snoring is associated with emotional disturbances, poor school performances and parasomnias. Self reported snoring is a mild but significant risk factor for stroke and coronary heart disease. Perhaps just as importantly, snoring is associated with poor sleep and an increase in the level of next-day pain in bed partners. Snoring may or may not be associated with sleep apnea. The only way to be sure if your or your partner’s snoring is related to sleep apnea is to have a sleep study and check it properly. At McCloy Dental we can assess your snoring. We work as part of a team, so we will organise for you to have the appropriate treatment, whether that is a full study, a referral to an ENT, or an oral appliance. Book in now to find out what is best for you. Call McCloy Dental now on 5495 7988.
Are you getting enough Vitamin D? with Beerwah PharmaSave
If asked to think about Vitamin D, most people think of the sun and their bones. They know our bodies make it from sunlight and that it is important for bone health. But did you know it also can affect your immunity and cardiovascular health too? What is also a surprise to many is that it is estimated that almost one in three Australians have Vitamin D levels below the recommended amount. Some Vitamin D comes from our diet, but most is manufactured in the skin. This means you are at higher risk of deficiency if you are elderly and outside less, if you work indoors or undercover, if you avoid or minimise sun exposure, if you have naturally dark skin and if you have certain chronic diseases such as renal disease, multiple sclerosis and malabsorption syndromes. Vitamin D supplements are a good way for people at risk of Vitamin D deficiency to ensure they get enough of this crucial vitamin to maintain a healthy skeleton, cardiovascular system and immune system. There are capsules, tablets and liquid formulations available. So, if you are concerned you may be low in Vitamin D, discuss the options with your pharmacist or doctor.

The Darkest Hour
Loveless
Trump's recent meeting with Putin may have reminded some of us just how bleak and soulless life in contemporary Russia can be for many of its citizens. ‘Loveless’, a bleak and uncompromising portrait of a Russian family in crisis, will do little to dispel those notions. Written and directed by the highly respected (not by the Russian government!) Andrey Zvyagintsev (‘Leviathan’), this 2017 drama depicts the story of a bitterly unhappy couple, Boris and Zhenya, who are going through an acrimonious divorce. It seems neither parent wants their 12-year-old son Aloysha and there's talk of an orphanage. At this point, the boy goes missing. Tellingly, his parents only notice his absence when the school phones to tell them the following day. Local police are indifferent and unhelpful, so Boris and Zhenya have to rely on volunteers to try to find the boy. Surely this is a sad comment on the state police of Putin's Russia. Commentators of ‘Loveless’ see it as a metaphor for everything that's wrong with Russia today. The director himself says: "It's like living in a minefield, this is the feeling you live with here today." The country seems to have lost its humanity. The bleak landscapes of a wintry Leningrad stunningly emphasise the cold heartlessness of the tragic narrative. Critically acclaimed, ‘Loveless’ won several awards, including the 2017 Jury Prize at Cannes. When: Saturday July 28 Where: Maleny Community Centre, Maple Street Food and Drinks: Dinner from 6pm to 7pm catered by Wild Rocket, tea/ coffee and homemade slices stand, and drinks available from the bar Movie: Screens from 7.15pm.

DICKSON RD
In May 1940, the fate of Britain and the Empire rests on the shoulders of one person: the newly-appointed Prime Minister of Britain, Winston Churchill, whose reputation has been publicly damaged by his handling of the Gallipoli Campaign and his support of Edward VIII during the abdication crisis. As the seemingly unstoppable Nazi war machine sweeps across Western Europe, Churchill must decide whether to negotiate with Hitler, or fight, knowing it could mean humiliating defeat for Britain. He is under immense pressure from his many political opponents to sue for peace. Should he accept Hitler's terms, or subject the British people and its allies to prolonged suffering in a potentially unwinnable war? Gary Oldman plays Churchill in a role which won him Best Actor at the 2018 Academy Awards, where the film received six nominations. Kristen Scott Thomas plays his wife Clementine and Australian Ben Mendelson plays King George VI. Directed by Joe Wright (‘Atonement’, ‘The Soloist’), ‘The Darkest Hour’ is sure to impress. When: Saturday July 28 Where: Maleny Community Centre, Maple Street Food and Drinks: Tea/coffee and homemade slices stand, and drinks available from the bar Movie: Screens from 2.30pm (doors open 2pm).

Go with the Flow
Vianta Arts in Beerwah is all set to host the work of Noela Mills in her exhibition ‘Go with the Flow’ between July 30 and September 1. Noela has been a practising artist since the 1970s when she had a career for over 20 years as an Art and Design Secondary School Teacher. Since 1995 she has focused on her own practice, with many successful artist residences, and solo and joint exhibitions across Australia. She is represented in such diverse places as Uluru, The Marriott Hotel Brisbane, Tatebayashi City Council Gunma Japan, and Monash University Victoria. ‘Go with the Flow’ is a reflection on the pace of life that we live these days. Noela says: “In this day and age of globalisation – instant information, political intrigue, economic bullying – how are we to absorb and process all of this? It can be enough to send us crazy! My philosophy, when it all gets too much, is to ‘go with the flow’.” She believes that: “Each of us can make small changes on a local level according to our interests and abilities, and then hopefully a positive global change will evolve.” This exhibition, of up to 20 acrylic and mixed media paintings on canvas, explores her philosophy of “accepting, encouraging and making changes where possible and of appreciating things that make us feel good, happy, loved, and fulfilled”. Vianta Arts is at 70 Simpson Street, Beerwah, and the exhibition will officially open at 6.30pm on Friday August 3. To book a table at the opening, call Steve on 0431 730 275. For information on hanging an exhibition at Vianta, email Michele at reddoorart@bigpond. com or text her on 0412 936 361.
Serge Grimaitre exhibition
The Maleny Library will feature an exhibition of works by Witta artist Serge Grimaitre throughout the month of August. Serge has been painting for most of his life and his latest paintings were done spontaneously, going with the flow of shades and lines already on the board, not knowing what would appear next. Serge loves the surprise of seeing his paintings appear almost of their own accord.

with the Beerwah Grafx Group A Happy Accident – by Carol Rix It is easy to get lost among such wondrous scenery. Such was the case when Carol and her friend went exploring the Lake Wanaka district of New Zealand. Climbing back up the bank she hurt her ankle so spent the time taking in the view while her friend searched for the car. It couldn’t have been better – late afternoon sun, snowy mountains, water reflections and brilliant yellow autumn trees. She took a series of photos, ten minutes apart, showing how the light changed in the hour she spent there. This one, taken at f20,1/125s at ISO100 was her pick and won for her ‘Picture of the Month’.

From the churches How do we know the Bible is true? It’s a good question to ask. The Bible claims to contain accurate, reliable and trustworthy information about God and about the life of Jesus Christ. But we cannot ignore the fact it is an old book passed along for many generations. The Bible’s critics argue it seems obvious that the Bible would change over the generations and what we read today is vastly different from what was written. So, let look at the evidence. For starters, those people who were copying various parts of the Bible, from very early on, seemed to have a great respect for the documents they were copying. They took a lot of care as the pages were rewritten. The greatest piece of evidence was discovered in 1948 in Israel with a group of ancient manuscripts known as the Dead Sea Scrolls, named after the area they were found in. You can “Google” the story if you want to know more. Some of these scrolls were copies of parts of the Old Testament portion of the Bible which dated from around about 100 BC. Most of the Old Testament was finalised by

Chris Johnson Glasshouse Country Baptist Church about 500 BC so there is only a 400 year gap between the two documents (which in the realm of archaeology is a very small timeframe). Up until this discovery the earliest Old Testament documents we had dated from around 900 AD. So with one discovery 1,000 years was wiped away. Scholars were keen to compare and what they discovered was that nothing much had changed. There were some spelling errors and rewordings – but nothing that changed the meaning whatsoever and the two documents were way more similar than they weren’t. Jesus once told a story about a man who claimed he didn’t know about God, nor was he warned about his fate. The reply was: “He has the Bible he should read it.” The man’s response was: “No, but if someone gets up from the dead they would believe him!” To which Jesus said, “If they do not listen to the Bible they will not be persuaded even if someone rises from the dead.” Jesus is right. There is enough evidence to prove the Bible to be historically reliable and unchanged – the real issue is that people don’t want to believe.

Home & Backyard Home colour trends this winter By Lea Parkes With many of us now keen followers of television shows like The Block and House Rules, I reckon I feel like I can talk like an expert about colour trends and styles for winter. Well actually, while I would like to think I am secretly an interior designer, I have gone to the experts to see what someone with a title of Colour and Communications Manager for Dulux considers what’s on trend for choosing colours to paint with this winter. The professionals advice is you need to create a cosy, sophisticated vibe with cool greys and warm accents. This winter, the mood is minimalist, casual, yet elegant, with a colour scheme of cool greys and warm natural tones. Think uncomplicated design combined with pale grey and accents of putty, rust, grey green and terracotta.
Dulux’s Andrea Lucena-Orr said that with its soft, muted shades, this palette is all about laidback sophistication and simplicity. It’s incredibly easy to live with and works beautifully in Australian homes.
“Colour is a powerful decorating tool. It can change the mood of a space and elicit emotions in those who spend time there – whether it‘s a cosy and inviting living room that encourages guests to relax and settle in, or a bedroom that feels calm and restful the moment you step foot in it,” she said. The ‘Essential’ palette is also the perfect pairing for the warm neutrals many of us already have in our homes. “When updating your colour scheme, you don’t necessarily have to go all out – sometimes small changes can create all the impact you need.
“The cool natural tones of the Essential palette sit wonderfully alongside warm whites such as Dulux Whisper White.” If you’re cautious about introducing colour, start small. • Look to add colour accents in unexpected spots, such as behind shelving, on the edge of doors or around a window frame. • Experiment with one of the season’s biggest colour trends – the tonal look – by using different shades or strengths of the one colour on walls, details and even furniture. • Texture is another key driver this season – think raw, matt finishes and textured effects such as Dulux Suede Effect for walls, all of which will add depth and natural appeal to a space. • Pair this with simple furniture with minimalist lines, and accessories in untreated timber, leather and brass for an understated, luxe look. • Colour is enormous fun, so don’t be afraid to step outside your comfort zone and try something new. And the best thing of all about paint – if you decide on a new colour down the track, you can simply paint over it.

An enthusiastic traveller with considerable art purchasing experience, Seb is always happy to share his knowledge with his clients. “It can be very disheartening to find that the art that you purchased on your travels is limited in what you can do because the canvas or paint is dodgy. I’m always more than willing to share tips
This option works particularly well for commercial applications and is also great for framing that requires pictures to be changed as the frames can be unscrewed easily. Seb is always happy to answer questions about the framing or restoration process and continues to look forward to meeting new clients as well as his lovely regular clients. about what to consider in purchasing so you can enjoy your artwork for years to come,” says Seb. It is worth noting that Beerwah Picture Framing’s photo restoration service has been very popular. Seb offers photo scanning and print enlargements done on his wide format Epson professional printer and images can be easily brought in as hard copy photos or digital images on CD or USB drives. Of course, Seb’s core business is still quality picture framing and it is never too much trouble to help a client pick the right combination of textures and colours to make that special piece of art really sing! An important part of framing is stretching canvas, and to ensure longevity it is important that stretching is done right. Seb will stretch your art in a modern art deco effect, a float frame effect or with a traditional or modern frame. A new addition to Seb’s sample frame range is the inclusion of aluminium mouldings which are perfect for pieces where clients just want the minimum of frame showing.

In the Garden From butterflies to birds
Tree Planting Day is a significant event at Peachester State School. Each year the entire month of July is when the Enviro Club students and Dorothy Robb dedicate time to preparing the school’s Indigenous Forest Walk track for new plantings. Each year every student at our school plants a tree or shrub or grass that is then staked with the child’s name, the plant’s scientific and common name and the use of the plant. These are all added to a now significant data base that tracks the plantings for future learning. Last year the students planted native butterfly attracting species, including the Richmond Birdwing Butterfly vines and, with thanks to the previous years of plantings, we had healthy sightings of this endangered butterfly at the school in February 2018. This year the focus is on planting native Bird Attracting Species and teaching the importance of the fruit, nectar, seeds or insects unique to each plant that provide feasts for individual birds. One bird that is dear to the hearts of Peachester students is the Black Cockatoo featured in our school emblem. Therefore the ‘Peachester Yellow’ Banksia Spinulosa will have special pride of place not only in our forest walk but also with plantings this year in our front entrance to the school. Weeyal is the local Aboriginal name for the Black Cockatoo, derived from its call as it flies through the air being likened to the o kato Coc The Black sound pronounced Wee-arl. Remember this sound as you hear the cockatoos flying high over our school during tree planting week. Many thanks to Mrs Dorothy Robb, who passionately dedicates hours of work to this project each year and in turn gives the gift of nature learning to our students. Tree planting day is an open day for all community members to enjoy our forest walk, and celebrate the planting efforts of the children. You are welcome to come and join the students on Friday July 27 at 1pm. A great way to support our Enviro Club projects is to purchase a Richmond Birdwing Butterfly Car Sticker. The stickers are available at Peachester Café, Fine Line Hair Studio, Beerwah, Peachester Fruit Shop and the Peachester State School office. Thanks to these businesses for supporting Peachester State School. Libby and Isabella preparing for tree planting day in 2017
Jobs for the yard in August
• It’s a good time to fertilise and prune hibiscus so they develop a bushy habit and produce lots of flowers in summer. • If you have a veggie garden, don’t forget to water it once or twice a week. Although it’s cooler, the drier winter winds will drain the moisture from the soil. • If you’re growing pineapples, give them a side dressing of complete fertiliser in late August. They like acid soils, so avoid using lime or dolomite. • Spray the flowers of your mango tree with a copper-based spray to fight anthracnose disease. • Plant your new roses now. Bagged and bare-rooted roses are in plentiful supply. • Fertilise your existing rose bushes by mulching around them with cow manure. • Keep your strawberries fruiting with a fortnightly feed of fish and seaweed solutions. Vegetables Plant carrot, lettuce, radish, beetroot, capsicum, celery, cucumber, eggplant, beans, pumpkin, silverbeet, spring onion, choko, squash, sweet potato, tomato, zucchini, broccoli, Asian vegetables, cabbage, peas, spinach, coriander, rocket and turnips.
Flowers Plant marigold, petunia, calendula, bedding begonia, Californian poppy, carnation, chrysanthemum, coleus, dahlia, gaillardia, gazania, gerbera, kangaroo paw, phlox, portulaca, snapdragon, zinnia, amaranthus, salvia and statice.
What’s on for gardeners in August • Elimbah-Caboolture Herb Club – August 3, 10am meeting at the Caboolture PCYC in Toovey Street, Caboolture.

Look out for fireweed
At this time of the year landowners need to be on the lookout for fireweed, a declared pest plant which is very poisonous to grazing animals. Introduced from Madagascar, fireweed is a branched herb that grows up to about 60cm high, with serrated leaves and small yellow daisy-like flowers approximately the size of a $2 coin. If you think you’ve found fireweed, it’s important to contact the Sunshine Coast Council on 5475 7272 so that they can check it out before it has a chance to spread. A colour factsheet on the toxic weed is available on the Biosecurity Queensland website (www.daf.qld.gov.au – search for fireweed). Another yellow flowering weed often confused with fireweed is flatweed, which has yellow flowers but leaves which grow flat against the ground.

Contributed by Pauline Fraley After two sets, the score was equal, Witta Wagtails didn’t score enough against Maleny Magics to secure a win, but a fun day of tennis was had by all. Thanks to Gerry, Cynthia, Janet and Sonia. The Wildcats were at home to Nambas No Faults – the wind was incredible but thankfully it died down towards the end. Pauline, Annie, Libby and Jenie came out firing and lead all the way. It was very close in the final set and the end result was also very close. The final score was 5-3 sets and 40-37 which was a great start to the season. At Ballinger Tennis Courts the temperature reached 26 degrees, it was sunny with a swirly wind. Heavy machinery on the adjoining courts as their grass court was being resurfaced led to interesting conditions for mid-winter tennis! Whistlers team of Brenda, Donna, Liz and Maree winning the day with 6 sets 43 games to Ballinger Smartini's 2 sets 28 games. Social tennis is on Monday at 8am and Saturday at 1pm all welcome.

Glasshouse Country Bowls Club Contributed by David Hayes Saturday, July 21: Men’s Pennant Round 3, Division 2 were away to Bongaree, not the best day for our Glasshouse boys who were outplayed on all 3 rinks, and the final score going down 42-72. Next week’s game is away to Caboolture Lakes. Division 4 were away to Narangba, it was awesome to see our men have their first win of the season on both rinks, final score 48-31. Next week is home to Bongaree. Division 5, were home to Bongaree, the home side had a hard fought win to now be sitting to wins from 3 starts, final score 42-38. A big come back from Warren Blackbourne’s side who were 20-1 down and came back hard to only go down by 23-18. Next week’s game is away at Caboolture Lakes. Congratulations to Di Hume and Rae Farrell who made it through to the ladies pair’s final for Champion of Club Champions which was held at Solander Lake last week. Their first game they beat Kilcoy 26-11. Next they were to good defeating Bribie Island 24-12. The final was held Wednesday and they played the home side, the ladies from Solander lakes only losing by 3 shots 17-14. Top effort ladies, you both must be very proud. Not so lucky were our men’s team of Warren Blackbourne, (sub Terry Little) and Barry Kirk who lost their game against Caboolture 27-19 Sunday week ago at Solander Lake. Maybe next year boys!

Winner was Sonia Kenway 72 nett (great in the conditions!) and runner up was Cathy Stone 79 nett. NTPs 2 – Cindy Godfrey, 5 – Felicity Smith, 16 – Leith Barnes and 18 – 2nd shot Sonia Kenway. Sonia also won the putting 26 putts.

Thursday, July 19 was the last of the championship events, with ladies’ foursomes with 25 pairs competing. The winners were Sonia Kenway and Karen Kemp 134 gross, runners-up were Andrea Campbell and Cathy Stone on 140. 27 Hole nett winners were Kathy Moffat and Toni Grant 114.5, runners-up were Barb Drury and Di Flint 117.25. 18 Hole nett winners Monica Dangerfield and Libby Gemmel 78. 9 Hole winners Lea Doyle and Sharon Phillips. NTP’s 2 – Monica Dangerfield, 5 – Sue Greentree, 19 – Lesley Eggleston, 20 – Robyn Ryan, 23 – Karen Kemp. BRD went to 119. Sonia Kenway has certainly hit her straps during the Championships having been in the winner’s circle for both of the Foursomes after missing the Ladies event due to injury. Well done Sonia! Here’s hoping for this beautiful weather to continue for a while. Cathy Stone, Andrea Campbell, Karen Kemp and Sonia Kenway
The Range Croquet Club Contributed by Ken Barker The grounds and lawns are looking fantastic thanks to a very good turnout at the working bee on Saturday. Thank you to all those who contributed. Beautiful weather made for almost perfect conditions of play on Sunday. Kath Smith and Stuart Craig played Sally Adams and Robert Elliot. In a tight match Kath and Stuart triumphed 10 hoops to 7. Nick Cram and Vince Carbery also played with Nick winning 16-11. Donna Manning and Sarah Widin had some practice on Lawn 2. Ken Barker was away for the weekend playing seven very pleasant games at Tweed Heads in the Gold Coast Tweed Region open tournament. He lost all seven, but thoroughly enjoyed the experience. He would like to thank the Tweed Heads Croquet Club and the organisers of the tournament for their hospitality.

Ken and Donna finished hard-tobeat John and Brian 22-18 in the doubles in the afternoon. Thanks to Noosa for providing a great venue and a close competition. The Range, Maleny won the round 3-0.

Maleny Bowls Club Contributed by Graeme Glover The quality of bowls has been exceptional at MBC recently. We have seen a number of great final games in the club championships and some excellent tussles in the lead up games in the open triples competition. Congratulations to all members who have taken part in any of these games. Your participation has added much to the enjoyment of a quality competition for so many members and for that we are thankful. Follow all the details of these games on our app or in newsletters for updated comments on all games. Thanks to those bowlers who travelled to meet our club commitments at the monthly Woodford triples. Congratulations the John K, Scott A and Curley P for their win on Tuesday. The jackpot was not won so come on down, you could be the lucky one. Wednesday night saw a good roll-up with the green playing well as a result of the cooler temperatures. Some close games were the order of the night. Mobile Kingdom suffered a shock loss after previous good form in the earlier competition. Form indicates the early favourites could come from the North Maleny boys. Coach has his team hitting their straps early with three wins and a perfect record. It was great to see a few of the teams getting players back and so form over the coming weeks will be more predictable. Scroungers had good numbers with some new recruits showing good form. Come and join the fun and stay on for the club draw. Monday has the club hold their monthly pairs and a complete roundup on all the winners will be in the next edition. Students from Maleny State High will start their Term 3 competition. This competition is sponsored by Maleny Paint and Paper. Thank you to Les and Linda Fawkes. The club hosted sixty members of the Queensland Caravan Club for bowls, burgers and beers. What a great turnout and strong endorsement for the MBC experience. Thanks for the positive feedback, looking forward to future visits. Your group can be a part of the fun. Come on down and try the best price fun in the Hinterland.

Never anger your nurse A bigshot businessman had to spend a couple of days in the hospital. He was a royal pain to the nurses because he bossed them around just like he did his employees. None of the hospital staff wanted to have anything to do with him. The head nurse was the only one who could stand up to him. She walked into his room and announced, "I have to take your temperature." After complaining for several minutes, he finally settled down, crossed his arms and opened his mouth. "No, I'm sorry, the nurse stated, "but for this reading, I can't use an oral thermometer." This started another round of complaining, but eventually he rolled over and bared his behind.
Your Stars ARIES March 21 – April 20 The Full Moon comes up this weekend in the sign of Aquarius and thereby heightens the friendships in your life which are different from intimate love themes. This Full Moon backs up the retrograde Mars, also in the sign of Aquarius, and puts a fire under your pleasure-seeking side while emphasising goals and friendships. TAURUS April 21 – May 21 There are influences contributing to a week ahead that are unexpected on a number of fronts. Mercury is about to go retrograde on Thursday and the Full Moon in Aquarius is on Saturday. These items bring a volatile energy to bear on your home and career. Keep your bearings as rapid changes are thrown at you. GEMINI May 22 – June 23 It may be hard to produce definite results for three weeks as Mercury goes retrograde. Mercury is your ruling planet and when it goes retrograde it adds complications to appointments and agendas. The Full Moon in your compatible sign over the weekend brings to a head differences regarding viewpoints or travel plans. CANCER June 24 – July 22 Last week you may have found yourself “drifty, dreamy” but now the Sun has entered the sign of Leo and your financial focus intensifies. You might have to wait three weeks for any good results as Mercury confuses many agendas in its retrograde motion. A Full Moon Lunar Eclipse in Aquarius precipitates sudden changes.
Week Beginning 25/07/18
After feeling the nurse insert the thermometer, he heard her announce, "I have to get something. Now you stay just like that until I get back!" She leaves the door to his room open on her way out. He curses under his breath as he hears people walking past his door, laughing. After almost an hour, the man's doctor comes into the room. "What's going on here?" asked the doctor. Angrily, the man answers, "What's the matter, Doc? Haven't you ever seen someone having their temperature taken before?" After a pause, the doctor replies, "Yes, but never with a daffodil!"

SAGITTARIUS November 23 – December 22 This weekend sees the Full Moon in a Lunar Eclipse, in Aquarius, and comes with an opposition to Mars. Not only is Mars retrograde, but Mercury now also turns backwards. This means recent decisions about travel or the future may change in unexpected ways. Making choices overcomes fuzzy decisions now. CAPRICORN December 23 – January 19 The Full Moon may find you weighing pros and cons regarding advantages of leaving a current workplace to take advantage of a new social group. Delay decisions, however, for three weeks as Mercury begins a retrograde period. During this time, you may retrace your steps and have to backtrack on your finances. AQUARIUS January 20 – February 19 As Mercury reverses its pace, going retrograde in the sign of Leo, this may cause misunderstandings and bottled up feelings that stir aggressive interactions. The retrograde position will be in opposition to the Full Moon in your own sign, and it brings to a head recent differences in an important union. Reform is possible. PISCES February 20 – March 20 This Full Moon puts many things on a monetary fast track. It won’t matter if you are spending more, it just has to be for good reasons over the next couple of weeks. You may be writing cheques for empathy and compassion to various societies. You find yourself thinking about the past and how you can now do better!

LEO July 23 – August 22 On Friday the Full Moon Lunar Eclipse is opposite your sign for the whole weekend and everything is packed with sudden changes in your agenda due to the added fact of Mercury going retrograde. This may motivate you for a complete makeover in style, attitude or appearance. Weekend conversations show differences of opinion. VIRGO August 23 – September 22 With the energy of Mercury reversing, plus the Full Moon Lunar Eclipse in Aquarius, all this provides useful insights into special moments from your past. For the next three weeks, therefore, be careful and delay any commitments. You get a lot done but be careful not to rush or take risks physically at home or at work. LIBRA September 23 – October 22 From the 26th, Mercury retrogrades, creating mail and travel difficulties, and perhaps a pull-back in social connections to re-evaluate your role. The Lunar Eclipse Full Moon of the 27th maximizes eccentric urges but a nice communal spirit. There may be a final personal act coming swiftly to a close. Consider starting a new hobby! SCORPIO October 23 – November 22 With Mercury retrograding from the 26th over a period of three weeks, watch out for misunderstandings in the career realm as the people that you work with, misinterpret your agenda. Successfully complete tasks that showcase your abilities. Be aware of an unexpected tumble in an alliance of closest workers.
