Witta Handcraft Markets
Witta Tennis News
The Witta Tennis Club Tournament is on Sunday 25 June. The cost is $15 which includes lunch. Nominations close Sunday the 18 June.
Entries to: paulinefraley@gmail.com. Whistlers were pleased to come in 3rd place this season with some very tough opposition. In the semifinals played on Friday we played the team who came second - Mooloolah Magnets. Paula, Donna, Brenda & Maree tried their hardest - but were beaten by a better team on the day. 48 games to 18. Now we have a few weeks off from comp before Spring season commenced in July
Witta Wompoos battled it out against Gympie Silver on Sunday. Both teams enjoyed the new court surfaces and sets see-sawed throughout the day. No tiebreaks were called for, but the standard of tennis was exceptional from both teams.
After the ladies set the teams were tied with only a few games separating them. Mal Carlisle had an impressive run for the day winning all four of his sets, with Haydyn, Donna, and Andrew each winning two out of their four sets for the day.
Great results over a tough consistent team. Once again, the match came down to the last two mixed sets. With a win going to each of the teams. The only way to separate them to get a result was games count back which put Witta over the line by 3 games.
Thanks to the Gympie team for the exciting tennis and to Mal, Haydyn, Andrew, Jim Donna, and Paula on an excellent win.
Katya's Tennis Drills

The Cork Twins
Twins, Aubrey (Aub) and Clarence (Bruiser) Cork were born 106 years ago in Maleny. Their parents, Clarence Aubrey and Martha Cork, moved to Maleny from Milton, NSW in 1914 and were farmers.
The lads went to school in Maleny and both remembered long holidays at Caloundra occasionally.
They took out a lease on Moffit’s property which had the milk run for the town attached, then a few years later the lease on Alan Mears property.
They were successful in their farming ventures and at their peak, owned three farms and kept two families employed.
Both were keen sportsman. The cricket oval at the Maleny Showgrounds is named the Aub Cork Oval.
Happy 106 Heavenly Birthday Aub and Bruiser. Enjoy two biographies from two families, Rob Cork and Pamela Tierney at:

The Maleny Contract Bridge Club Inc
Maleny Players Next Production!
We’re excited to be bringing you 'Dancing with Lughnasa' by Brian Friel- and Directed by Andrew Wallace. Dancing at Lughnasa is a 1990 play set in a cottage in County Donegal in 1936. It’s a household of five unmarried sisters who would all like to be married. The youngest has an illegitimate son, the eldest tries to keep preserve family respectability. But now the father of the child re-appears, full of seductive charm, while an elder brother has just returned after decades working as a priest in Africa and is strangely changed.
In the back hills there are still lingering pagan rituals, Lugh (pronounced ‘Loo’) being the ancient Celtic god of the harvest. The rhythms of family life play out against broader social tensions and economic hardship. You will enjoy meeting these fundamentally good-hearted and resilient people.
At Friday evening performances you are invited to come along at 6pm to purchase a bowl of Irish stew to enjoy whilst being entertained with music on the veranda at the Playhouse.
Please purchase your tickets early to avoid disappointment.
We look forward to seeing you at the Playhouse.
