Maleny District Sport & Recreation Club Inc Newsletter Corvid 19 restric.on for Queensland eased Further Start planning your Qld holiday! As of midday on June 1st, Queenslanders will be able to undertake unlimited travel, including overnight stays throughout the entire state, in a major easing of COVID-19 restrictions. In further good news for business, more locals will be allowed in cafés, restaurants, pubs and clubs, with an increase in the number of patrons increasing from 10 to 20. From noon on Friday, June 5, venues with more space will be allowed up to 20 people in each defined area if they follow an approved COVID Safe Industry Plan.

It has been our state’s outstanding response to the COVID-19 pandemic that has allowed restrictions to be lifted ahead of a planned move to Stage Two – originally scheduled for June 12. The Premier stood firm on the state's borders remaining closed to interstate travellers, and news on this front will be available shortly.

So if you have been going completely cabin crazy, and with the school holidays just around the corner, now’s your chance to dust off your wheels and take the family to see places in Queensland you may have always wanted to see. Queensland’s accommodation and tourism bodies will welcome your visit with open arms!

Gatherings of up to 20 people will also be allowed from tomorrow. And from midday June 12, all restaurants and cafes that have extra room beyond the four square metre rule will be allowed to cater for up to 20 people in each section of the venue. The Qld Govt. said the easing of restrictions was brought forward due to the "remarkable" work the public has done in abiding by restrictions and keeping the number of COVID-19 cases low. So well done, Queensland. Maleny District Sport and Recreation Club Inc

Hello from MSHS Youth Support Coordinator From : Sue Krucker – Youth Support Coordinator @ Maleny State High School

Are you getting enough SILENCE ? Shhhh. Our brain needs silence. It could in fact be more important than eating the right food and getting regular exercise. In order to control our stress levels and do its job properly, our brain needs certain amounts of the quiet stuff … and more than likely, we’re not getting enough of it. Whilst there’s no way to avoid noise completely (let’s not eliminate the sounds of nature and laughter, please), an excess of it can be detrimental to our well-being – with links to a reduction in our immunity, increase in our stress levels, heart disease and insomnia. So, once everything is turned down, off and silenced, what happens to our body in this quiet?

Well, our body responds when there’s an absence of noise. During an Italian study on the effects of types of music on the body (in 2006) researchers accidentally discovered that the participants relaxed more during the two minutes of silence when they were changing tracks than they did when listening to the music itself. But the benefits of silence are not just enjoyed physically. Recent studies show that it can rejuvenate our brain cells, which allows us to get into a more creative mindset. According to Perth-based Simplicity Expert, Speaker and Coach, Eve Broenland, “you recharge yourself with silence — even the biggest extrovert needs some time in peace and quiet or you’ll burn out”. Rest shouldn’t be limited to sleep. In this day and age our brain is tirelessly assaulted with stimulation, and we’re desperately trying to keep up with all the information we’re fed. It’s more important than ever to pause and savour those moments of quiet when we can. Are you cringing at the idea of absolute quiet? For some, the opportunity is rare, whilst for others, the idea is disconcerting. Studies have revealed that as much as our brain needs silence, it can also fear it. “Silence can be very confronting and it can take some getting used to,” explains Broenland, and she suggests adopting the principle of three levels of silence.

Maleny District Sport and Recreation Club Inc

“The first level is simply exposing yourself to the lack of sound while you do other things — maybe just sitting and enjoying a cup of coffee with no other stimulation. The second is adding no movement — so, you actually sit completely still in silence. The third level also sees you being able to ignore your thoughts — and this is when silence tips into meditation.”

The Top 12 Benefits of Silence 1. 2. 3. 4.

You Become Calmer Boost your intui/on Improve your awareness Lower your stress and blood pressure 5. It’s a mental detox 6. Improve your pa/ence level 7. Decrease muscle tension 8. Improve focus and concentra/on 9. Our mind ages at a slower rate 10. May cure headaches and migraines 11. Brings body, mind and spirit into harmony 12. Develops mindfulness The fact is, since we can train our brain to get used to noise and distraction, then surely we can train it to get used to silence, too. All it takes is just two to three minutes of silence a day to start to show the positive effects on our physical and mental well-being. So what are you waiting for? … sshhhh.

Maleny Commerce - Another first Thanks to the efforts of Maleny Commerce, Maleny will be the first Sunshine Coast region to implement a local EVpos giV card solu.on aimed at keeping money within Maleny by encouraging people to shop locally therefore suppor.ng local businesses. Maleny Commerce has been awarded a $5000 Sunshine Coast Council Major Grant to implement this initiative working with Why Leave Town Promotions (WLT). Maleny Commerce, with the help of the grant, will fund the program entirely which means no costs to our businesses to be part of this exciting new chamber program. Now customers can buy the local gift card and know that the funds are 100% supporting local business. The potential income to our businesses could be between $100,000 to $200,000 annually. Of course, there is no limit as to what we will be able to do with this card to increase income to local businesses. It can be used by clubs as raffle prizes, employers as Christmas gifts to their employees. The chamber runs a 'Live Love Shop Local' campaign a few times a year giving away a $500 Eftpos card. We had no control over where those funds were spent - now we know they will be spent locally. We intend to promote this card in the greater Sunshine Coast Region and Brisbane. How lovely to receive a Maleny Gift Card to spend on your next visit to our town!

WHAT IS THE WHY LEAVE TOWN GIFT CARD? •

Why Leave Town’s (WLT) Gift Card program is an EFTPOS based system (excludes Square Readers) aimed at keeping money within communities by encouraging people to shop locally.

Cards can be purchased at a select number of stores that we call “Load Up Stores”.

There are no additional fees for businesses apart from their normal bank transaction fees.

When a customer purchases a card they decide how much money to load onto the card and this money can then be used by the card holder to purchase goods in any participating store within the market where the card was purchased.

The card will NOT be able to be used outside of the participating stores.

This means that every time one of these cards is purchased, the MONEY STAYS LOCAL!

WHY SHOULD YOUR BUSINESS BE INVOLVED? • • • •

The first Sunshine Coast region to implement such a program guarantees extensive media coverage – print; radio; tv and social media; No cost to your business to sign up and be a part of this program; Maleny Commerce is funding this program to benefit all businesses in year one of the program; Benefits retail and service businesses, everyone can benefit.

WHAT YOU NEED TO PARTICIPATE: •

All you need is an eftpos machine to reap the benefits. It is a normal eftpos transaction.

HOW DO YOU GET YOUR BUSINESS INVOLVED? • • •

Register your business at: https://www.whyleavetown.com/register (please select Redemption store only) or email info@malenycommerce.org.au or call 0404 232 770 and we will come to you or call you and do the registration with you.

Life is Just a Picnic! Undoubtedly one of the side benefits of the Corona situation has been the re-emergence of popular family past times - like walking, playing outdoors and picnicking together.

And if you are looking for a venue that’s still tucked away from the crowds of the usual spots, why not pick up some local deliciousness and take the family to the Maleny Community Precinct? The spacious Ziza Field, in front of the Maleny District Sport and Rec Club’s building, has now been safely prepared for sharing with the public and is a perfect spot for a picnic.

Several Maleny eateries have put together scrumptious hampers and delights ready for you to pick up - so all you need is the family, a rug and perhaps some toys!

When not in use for event training by the Maleny 5th Light Horse Regiment horses, the troopers have kindly made their dedicated training field available for public use. “It’s a lovely quiet spot and we want the public to know it’s open to them when the horses are not training” said President of the Regiment, Terry Murphy. “We’ve

got families kicking a ball, playing frisbee and just running around, it’s a great open space for everyone.” MDSRC who leases the fields from the Sunshine Coast Council, has seen its volunteers spend many months making sure the grassy field is well mown and is weedfree.

Life is Just a Picnic! Continued from Previous Page who cannot use inside venues to get together. We’re very pleased to be able to offer the Ziza Field as a safe venue for outdoor classes and for families to play and picnic on ” said an MDSRC spokesperson. In the recent breezy conditions, it is proving particularly suitable for some old fashioned kite flying! The Ziza Field has easy gate access at the top and bottom of the new adjoining Settlers Green park, where shady seats under the fig tree are also a great spot to relax and take in the views of the surrounding Maleny Precinct. There is plenty of parking - and as with the entire Precinct, dogs must always be on a leash, and if using the fields, please pick up and take home any little doggy offerings, for the comfort and hygiene of all. Horses are generally in training on the last Saturday of each month and look out for them at other times.

Phoebe or Piebe?

We’ve had wonderful feed-back about the snippets of Maleny history being reproduced each week, so this week as we reflect with a little pang, on the cancellation of our dear Maleny Show, it seemed appropriate to meander through an early tale of dairying in North Maleny with thanks to the Friends of Pattemore House for this story. When the Pattemore family first came to Maleny and built Fairview (Pattemore House) in 1907, J.R. Pattemore also wanted to establish an operational dairy farm.

With Fairview completed, his sons very quickly built their dairy bails to enable the family to earn a living. They were constructed as traditional walk-through bails, whereby each cow enters a stall, is milked, and then continues forward through a door back into the paddocks. The “Old Bails” still stand, and continue to delight visitors to the Precinct, situated as they are very close to the Heritage Trail on the Maleny Precinct. J.R. Pattemore retired from dairying in 1914, aged 64, however for the next 33 years he operated his farm on a sharefarming basis until he died, aged 96 yrs.

Pattemore's Friesian herd daily.

The Dickson family lived in a house named ‘Mosman’ also built on the Pattemore property by Albert Pattemore in approximately 1910. The house was, situated approximately 200 metres away from ‘Fairview’. The house was removed to Caloundra in the 1950’s by the Porter family and has since been demolished. It’s widely reported that the first Friesian cattle were introduced to Maleny when Bill Dickson and J.R. Pattemore returned with 2 bulls from a Kingaroy sale in the 1930’s; one of them name Phoebe! It is also thought that the bulls might have been bought from the Goomeri Burnbrae Friesian stud, which was quite near Kingaroy. J.R.’s oddly named bull was probably a misunderstanding of the stud name Piebe, which was well known at the time – a stud name used for many fine Friesian sires, including: “Dominion Woodcrest Piebe Mercedes” “King Peitertje Ormsby Piebe” and “Burnbrae Pontiac Piebe”.

At first, his sons were the share-farmers but William Dickson, his wife Maude, son Alex and daughters Jean (Janet) and Lillian Rose became the Pattemore’s share farmers from 1927 to the late 1930s, and the whole family helped with milking the Maleny District Sport and Recreation Club Inc

Due to their excellent milking capacity, black and white Friesians soon dotted the fertile hillsides of Maleny’s many diaries. The Friends of Pattemore House interviewed Jean Dickson (now Larney) before she passed away, who told how she was aged 5 years old when her family moved into 'Mosman' in 1927.

Jean lived there until 1945, when she married Jack Larney, and recalled how she was a little girl when her father brought the bull home. After the death of JR, the Pattemores sold their farm, and there was a series of owners, with most continuing to employ share farmers to keep running the dairy. The share farmers lived in Fairview, rather than Mosman. Jean Howard, the wife of share farmer Horace Howard, recalling that in the 1950's she used to walk across to the bails every day to help with the milking, until she learned to drive the tractor! Most Maleny district houses of the late 19th and early 20th centuries were built of pit sawn local timber and as a result there was for some years a timber mill operated by Thynne and Pattemore on Fairview.

photos, and these references were used to determine the accurate placement of the ’new' trail by the Sunshine Coast Council. So the next time you are taking a stroll across the walk between Fairview and the Old Bails, you are walking in the once daily footsteps of the Pattemores and the share farming families, with some of the tale delightfully reflected in the poetry and sculptures along the way. Fairview was listed on the Queensland Heritage Register on the 4th September 2003 having satisfied all the necessary criteria Photo Previous Page: Jean Dickson hand feeding calves at ‘Mosman’ Photo Above: The walk between Fairview and the Old Bails

whether this tree should be removed or pruned.

The tree works will to be issued each month as we have a limited budget per month for tree works. It's a great job being done and I would like to personally thank all council officers involved. Thank you for the great community feedback resulting from Parks and Gardens officers mulching adjacent to the stairs from Tamarind Street to Carinya Close. Sunshine Coast Councillors have unanimously agreed to not accept a 2% wage increase proposed by the Local Government Remuneration Commission. The decision was made in recognition of the impact of COVID-19 on the Sunshine Coast community, the biggest health and economic challenge faced in more than a century. “With this in mind, our focus in developing Council’s budget for 2020-2021 is very much on the needs of our community as we all start our way through the recovery process” said Mayor Jamieson “On this basis, all councillors have agreed that not accepting the wage increase proposed by the Commission is the right thing to do during this very difficult time.” Wages for elected local government members in Queensland are determined by an

The Commission determines the maximum remuneration payable to a mayor and councillors from July 1 each year.

Lessons can be learnt from many sources! Last Sunday our minister decided that a visual demonstration would add emphasis to his Sunday sermon. Four worms were placed into four separate jars. The first worm was put into a container of alcohol. The second worm was put into a container of cigarette smoke. The third worm was put into a container of chocolate syrup. The fourth worm was put into a container of good clean soil. At the conclusion of the sermon, the Minister reported the following results: The first worm in alcohol . . . . . .. Dead. The second worm in cigarette smoke . . Dead! Third worm in chocolate syrup . . . Dead! Fourth worm in good clean soil . .Alive?! So the Minister asked the congregation, "So, my friends? What did you learn from this demonstration?” Maxine, sitting in the back, quickly raised her hand and said: "As long as you drink, smoke and eat chocolate, you won't have worms!s That pretty much ended the service!

J.P. Services in Maleny Just how often have you needed to see a Justice of the Peace in a hurry to sign those pesky legal forms and not known just where to find one? Justices of the Peace (JP) or Commissioners for Declarations (C.Decs) play such an important part in our community as quasi legal practitioners in such roles as witnessing documents such as statutory declarations, affidavits and certifying copies of original documents. We have been very fortunate in the Covid situation that Brian Allen JP was most willing to meet with us privately over the last 9 weeks and help with our needs. This is to advise that he will be away from Tuesday 19th until Thursday 28th May - but will continue to offer his assistance to you in the future. The Maleny Library and Neighbourhood Centre will reopen sometime in the future too for JP services but for JP’s to be able to operate, all signing stations firstly are to be properly vetted by the Justice Dept. A big thank you to Brian for all of the assistance you have provided throughout, it’s very much appreciated – and we’ll see you on your return! In the mean time visit the web site below to find a Justice of the Peace or a Cdec. https://www.qld.gov.au/law/legalmediation-and-justice-of-thepeace/about-justice-of-the-peace/

The Range Croquet Club - Maleny Musings from a newly minted croquet player

We had the MAN (maximum allowable number) on the lawns on Thursday. On lawn 2, the Ted Singleton lawn, Helen Andrews and Gillian Bradley drew with Priscilla Vickers and Wallace Roy 7 all. Vince Carbery 9 lost to Nick Cram 17 in a game that was tighter than the scores indicate. Kath Smith and Donna Manning went down to Sarah Widin and Ken Barker 9 -21 in a tactically complicated game which was dominated by interesting “leaves” from both teams.

Queenland. It was donated by Lindsay David (Graceville), the Queensland agent for the mallets.

The lawns were full on Saturday for practice. It’s good to see so many familiar faces back and things starting to return to normal.

The above photo shows club president Sarah (right) presenting Priscilla with the mallet, which she is seeing for the first time, while Vince Carbery (centre) checks that it is all done legally–especially as far as social distancing is concerned.

Priscilla recently won a Terminator mallet in a raffle run by Croquet

Play on Sunday resulted in a win to Kath Smith and Wallace 9 against Helen and Priscilla 5 on lawn 1, the Eileen Harrison lawn. On lawn 2, Sarah played well to beat Vince 20 –5 while Ken 14 and Donna 13 played patchy croquet to end up practically even after two and a half hours. Play days have resumed!
