May 1: We’ve had a quiet week on our own lawns this week due to the Maleny Wood Expo being held at the showgrounds over the May long weekend, resulting in cancellation of Saturday coaching and Sunday play. Our only play day was Thursday which was attended by five keen players. Wallace Roy and Lynette Evans teamed up against Dianne Horsman in a very tight game of Association croquet, ending in a 16 all draw. Meanwhile Donna Manning gave Helen Uhlmann a comprehensive introduction to Ricochet Croquet, playing a 14 point game with lots of helpful and patient instruction. Helen is looking forward to playing Ricochet more regularly and thoroughly enjoyed the session with Donna.
Things may have been quiet on our lawns, however this did not mean that our club members were idle. Dianne and Lynette, our accomplished Bray Shield pennants team played the Bribie Island Dolphins in some stiff competition on Saturday 29th. Congratulations to Lynette in her comprehensive singles win with 15 hoops to her opponent’s 7. Dianne met her match with her opponent having a blinder, ending up with 26 hoops to Dianne’s 8. This made for an interesting doubles match which was nail bitingly close, with Bribie just edging ahead by one hoop to win 9:8. Well played to everyone.

Meanwhile, Donna Manning and Ken Barker played Toombul on Sunday 29,30/4 in the Association Croquet 2nd eights competition. They both acquitted themselves very well, coming out with three wins and three losses each. This is a wonderful achievement for play in this state level competition, with each of their wins being quite comprehensive. Congratulations to both Donna and Ken. We remind our community that groups are always welcome to enjoy a game of Golf or Aussie croquet on our lawns. This can be arranged by contacting our president Sarah Widen on the number below. The attached photo shows members of the Down Under Caravan Club after playing with us earlier in the year.
In our club match ups on the afternoon of Thursday 4th, Donna Manning played our visitor, the very experience player Chris Borlase, in a great match up, which Chris won 24:8. We appreciate having such high level players visit our club as playing against them gives us a wider opportunity to hone our skills. Meanwhile Wallace Roy bravely took on the might of a team of Helen Andrews and Sally Adams, easily winning with 19 hoops to 6. On Sunday afternoon May 7, the beautiful Autumn weather drew many players to the lawns and both courts were in use. On lawn one, a doubles match between a team of Sally Adams and Wallace Roy against Helen Andrews and Kath Smith resulted in a very close game, won by Sally and Wallce with 11 hoops to 10. On lawn 2, Dianne Horsman played Nick Cram in a singles match, with Dianne going down with 4 hoops to Nick’s 17. Great play Nick! Also on lawn 2, Sarah Widin played against a team of Donna Manning and Lynette Evans which was won by Donna and Lynette 14:11. The pleasant afternoon was rounded off with a very congenial drink at the end of play. The attached photo shows Wallace, Kath and Sally with drinks in hand and Lynette and Dianne hamming it up in the background. It must be the joys of Autumn!!
We’re excited to be adding Tuesday mornings to our play schedule at the club when we will play Ricochet. Many of us are enjoying playing this different croquet game and are looking forward to this

Summary: Trixie is a stunning lady with a long grey coat. In the refuge she is preferring to sleep the day away in a hidey hole but she is up for a pat whenever anyone walks by. In her previous home she lived with kids and was fine with them. She lived with another cat but did not appreciate the company, so we are looking for a single home for Trixie. Trixie will greet you when you come home and sleep on the end of your bed. She will need someone who is happy to maintain her lovely coat with regular brushing.
FOSTER TO ADOPT ONLY
We are seeking a very specific home to meet his needs as Hopper has tested positive for Heartworm. Thankfully we have caught this early and have started treatment but now he needs a place to continue on his healing journey. We are looking for a quiet home, free from other dogs and cats. He can’t be exercised like a normal dog as this can have serious health issues, so short gentle walks in the cool morning or evenings and lots of puzzle toys to keep his mind engaged. For more information about Hopper and his needs contact us.

THE San Training Centre competitors were in top form over the weekend, snagging five gold medals, three silver medals and seven bronze medals at the Taekwondo Gold Coast Open.
Up against 70 Taekwondo clubs from all over Australia and competitors from Tonga, New Zealand, India and New Caledonia, San Training’s Cameron Taylor said he was proud of the club’s achievement, including finishing 12 overall.
“I was really happy with the team, winning 15 medals overall and placing 12th overall, our coach from Taipei participated and won a gold medal in her division which was great,” he said.
“Ava also won a gold medal, she’s from our development team and it was her first competition win which was great for her.
“These events are great for students to make lifelong friends, especially those from different countries to learn about different cultures and grow as a person.”
The San Training Centre team has been working hard for not just the Gold Coast
