KPC NEWS hat a great weekend 9-10 August was for our KPC members who were out competing!

On Saturday at Mooloolah Pony Club for the Dressage: Rachael and Dexter placed 4th overall in their 13-25 year age group and Caeli and Arabella were Reserve Champions (unofficial) in their 12&U class. On Sunday at Mooloolah Pony Club Combined Training (dressage and showjumping): Caeli and Arabella were Champions 12&Under (unofficial); Matilda and Jimbo were Reserve Champions 13-25years; and Bronte and Serenity came 9th in the 13-25years.

the fortnight that was

obs may be at stake. It may sound like a scene from a sci-fi movie, but a new café in China is running its restaurant using robots. The machines greet customers, wait on tables and cook basic meals. It is the third café in the world to rely on the use of robot employees, potentially giving a glimpse into how future businesses could operate. But the futuristic machines have a limited vocabulary and take two hours to charge.

Also on Sunday at Cooroy Pony Club Gymkhana: Alice and Rabbit came 2nd in the 15 years; Jodi and Kye came 2nd in the 16 years; Rachael and Dexter came 4th in the 17-25 years and Sonia and Mysti came 1st in the Seniors. Around the same time, our instructor Melissa Flood won her ridden class at the Brisbane Ekka! Well done to all riders and their support crews.

RSL NEWS

he last RSL meeting was held on a cold night so the attendance was down but we nevertheless got through our business. The submission has been returned so we have to wait now hoping it will be acceptable. Long Tan Day (18 August) was acknowledged by placing flowers at the Cenotaph. Mary Valley Voice last year carried an article explaining what happened in that rubber plantation when D Company (three platoons totalling 108 men) of six Battalion Royal Australian Army of mostly 19 year olds was ambushed by over 3000 Viet Cong and North Vietnamese Army. The whole Company could have been wiped out but for the New Zealand Battery and the 24 guns of the Australian Artillery firing from the home base accurately landing shells directly on to the enemy and to within 50 metres from the Australian front line. There were 15 lives lost. Lest We Forget Sonja Kallman

What you can buy for $427,237,287. A rooftop apartment being built in Monaco. The penthouse is located at the top of a new 560ft skyscraper which will be completed next year. It even has its own waterslide for the days when you just can’t be bothered with stairs; Or you can own a house in Iran which will feature three semi-mobile areas which rotate at the touch of a button. The design is similar to the moving Hogwarts rooms in the Harry Potter film. And you thought hotdogs were for eating. A Chinese man asked for his girlfriend’s hand in marriage by spelling it out with 1,001 hotdogs. After buying 1001 of the plastic wrapped hot dogs, he set to work on his gesture - based on the notion that saying someone is one in a thousand is considered very special in China. Lucky for him she said “I do”, and the pair have since warned wedding guests that sausages will also play a big role at their upcoming wedding. Let’s hope they’re not telling porkies. There’s still time. Scientists believe there is a realistic chance “Asteroid 1950 DA” could hit Earth in 866 years time. It’s not the first apocalypse warning, but the date 16 March 2880 seems favoured. And scientists have no idea how to stop it. Don’t think I will be around to worry about it. Who needs a horse float. A horse was spotted travelling in the back seat of a Ford Del Rey in Brazil. There is no law banning horses from travelling in cars in Brazil, so this was completely legal.

Durrumboi (continued)

ranscribed from newspaper article in The Australian, 14 June 1842, p.3

On the 13th May, 1842, Andrew Petrie’s party, who had been exploring for the first time the Mary River, camped ashore, with the view of ascending the neighbouring hills on the following day. “I shall never,” wrote Mr. Petrie in his diary, “forget his appearance when he arrived in our camp – a white man in a state of nudity, and actually a wild man of the woods; his eyes wild and unable to rest a moment on any one object. He had quite the same manner and gestures that the wildest blacks have got. He could not speak his ‘mither’s tongue,’ as he called it. He could not pronounce English for some time, and when he did attempt it, all he could say was a few words, and those were often misapplied, breaking off abruptly in the middle of a sentence with the black gibberish, which he spoke very fluently. During the whole of our conversation his eyes and manner were completely wild, looking at us as if he had never seen a white man before. In fact, he told us he had forgotten all about the society of white men, and had forgotten all about his friends and relations for years past, and had I or someone else not brought him from among those savages he would never have left them”. Upon returning to Brisbane and receiving a pardon from the Government, Davis first entered the service of Land Commissioner Simpson at Woogaroo, and shortly afterwards joined Mr. Eales’s manager, Mr. Joliffe, to take up land in the Wide Bay district. He was next engaged with a survey party, opening the road to Gympie, a task which took a considerable time to accomplish. Historic Note:- Durrumboi linked with the Rev. Eipper and the Rev W. Schmidt of the German Protestant Mission to the Aborigines of Australia at Moreton Bay in March, 1843 on their journey to the Larger Bunya Country along the Wide Bay River with instructions to report to his Excellency Governor Gipps on that country with a view to establishing a German Mission for the Aborigines in the area – acting as guide and sharing with the reverend gentlemen his knowledge of local aboriginal dialects (Hinka Booma to Kenilworth, 2005).

Davis opened a farrier’s shop at Kangaroo Point - after several years opened a second farrier’s shop in George Street, which he kept until 1864. He then gave up the smithy, and for over twenty years until his final retirement from business, dealt in crockery ware on the premises adjoining the Ipswich boarding house. Whilst residing in Brisbane, he was also engaged as aboriginal interpreter in the Supreme Court, travelling about the colony wherever a native unable to speak English was placed on his trial. http://www.slq.qld.gov.au/resources/convictqueenslanders/davis Just another of those stories from the history of the settlement of this district.

A Huge Thank You

Kenilworth Chook Chase - Round Up

T

he Kenilworth Chook Chase Committee, and beneficiaries of its fundraising, would like to publicly acknowledge and say a huge thank you to the Marr Family for their continuing support of the Chook Chase.

he 15th annual Kenilworth Chook Chase nearly became a cancellation with last minute issues causing a myriad of problems and angst. But, in true Kenilworth fashion and with a “little help from our friends,” another successful Chook Chase was held.

Each year the Marr Family have generously allowed the use of their land for the Pee-Wee and Novice tracks enabling the Chook Chase to be the popular and wellknown event that it is. This year however, this important, annual fundraiser would have been cancelled without the magnanimous help of the Marr Family.

The organisers of the Chook Chase would like to sincerely thank the Marr Family (see article left), Forestry Plantations Qld, Department of National Parks, Recreation, Sports and Racing and Snr Constable Tickner for working with them to find a practical and workable solution.

With less than four hours to go before the ride opened, organisers were made aware of an issue that potentially meant the cancellation of the 2014 Chook Chase and the refunding of 300 rider nominations, some of whom had come from as far away as Mackay, Cairns and NSW. This would also of meant the loss of much needed funds for the committees involved. But, in an amazing display of community spirit, and after only one phone call, the Marr Family gave permission for the extra 300 riders to use their land as a bridge to access the forestry tracks. This meant that fences were cut and cattle and horses moved on very short notice. This display of generosity is not only appreciated by the organisers and beneficiaries of the Chook Chase but also by the 300 riders who were able to enjoy a fantastic weekend - Thank you Marr Family!

The Kenilworth Chook Chase is many months in the planning and takes many people willing to help to make it the successful and well-polished event that it is. A huge thank you to each and every one of you that contributed in any way to the running of the 2014 “Chookie” - our whole community benefits from your help and commitment. It got off to a shaky and stressful start but ended the way we wanted - with smiling riders, a canteen nearly sold out of food and no injuries. The Kenilworth Chook Chase is a fundraiser for the Kenilworth Hall and Showgrounds Assoc., the Kenilworth SES, the Kenilworth Swimming Pool Assoc., the Kenilworth First Response, the Mary Valley Voice and the Kenilworth Pony Club.

Ambo volunteers needed for Imbil and surrounds

Our front cover story MITCHELL CREEK ROCK N BLUES FESTIVAL A MUSIC, FOOD AND FRIENDS WEEKEND

A

he Queensland Ambulance Service (QAS) is asking Imbil, Kandanga and Brooloo residents to consider volunteering their time as a First Responder to benefit paramedics and their community alike.

ll of Mary Valley will be on show during September with visitors from every corner of Australia passing through to Upper Kandanga for the annual Mitchell Creek Rock N Blues festival weekend.

Coolum Officer-in-Charge Gavin Bennett said First Responders formed a vital link in the pre-hospital care chain and invited interested community members to come along to an upcoming open day to talk to existing volunteers about their important roles.

Says organiser, Jimmy Budgen: “Tickets are selling well with quite a few large group bookings. There’s a plane load of visitors coming from Adelaide and Perth.

“As their name suggests, volunteer First Responders initially turn out to both trauma and medical incidents in their communities and provide basic first aid until paramedics arrive,” Mr Bennett said.

Last weekend we had group bookings from Tassie and Roma, to the Burdekin, Nth Qld. Also there’s a road train of caravans headed up from Melbourne to rock on.” The grand opening will be Saturday (20 Sept) at 12 noon, with local David Gibson MP and CR Jullie Walker on behalf of Minister for Tourism, Major Events, Jann Stuckey MP.

“First Responders undertake training in pain management, advanced resuscitation and automated external defibrillation. They are the reassuring faces supporting rural and regional Queensland and form a crucial part of our service.”

“The festival is about local tourism and sharing Mary Valley’s unique blend of music, food and location.

Mr Bennett said volunteer First Responders came from all walks of life.

During the festival there will be heaps of prizes to give away so come funky dressed or just down right stylish ‘Gals and Guys!’ Book your passes now with only a few weeks to go.”

“You don’t have to have a medical background – all that’s required is a willingness to learn, and availability to help your community in their time of need,” he said. “Of course, you’ll need to have your own registered, roadworthy and reliable vehicle, and a current driver’s license, because as a First Responder you’ll be required to respond to emergencies in your vehicle. “Being a volunteer First Responder is both challenging and rewarding – if you’d like to give back to your community, while also beneffiting those on the front line, come along to our open day or give me a call.” Interested community members should visit www.ambulance.qld.gov.au for an information pack, or contact Gavin directly on 0419 765 694. The Open Day is on Wednesday 3 September from Noon to 2pm then 6pm to 8pm at the First Responder Headquarters, Imbil Fire Station, Yabba Creek Road, Imbil.

There will be an amazing selection of food stalls to cater for every gourmet taste and diet whim.

Local history under the stars

ENROL AT FEDERAL STATE SCHOOL FOR 2015

n Retrospect: the Mary River” is coming to Kandanga in the first ever outdoor movie screening on the banks of Kandanga Creek. The film, shown in two 45min parts, captures history from pre-European history to today, as seen through the eyes of local story tellers from throughout the Mary River catchment. Screening will commence at 7pm on Wednesday 1 October at Spicers Oval, beside the Kandanga Pool on the Kandanga-Amamoor Rd. Entry is by gold coin donation. A delicious supper including a sausage sizzle and homemade muffins will be available for purchase from 6.30pm. Bring along your camping chair, bean bag, cushions and/ or picnic blanket for a night under the stars on the banks of Kandanga Creek. Come along, have a fun night and support the upcoming Mary River Festival on Saturday 8 November 2014. All funds raised from the night will go toward making the Festival even better in 2014. In case of wet weather the event will be relocated to Kandanga Hall, Main St Kandanga. “In Retrospect” was produced through the Looking Forward, Looking Back project – a collaboration between the Mary River Catchment Coordination Committee and local film maker, Luke Barrowcliffe from Goorie Vision. Copies of the film will also be available for sale on the night for $11. For more information contact Glenda 0411 443 589 or Tanzi on 0405 848 375.

O

ne of the district’s oldest schools in the newest school buildings is seeking to boost numbers and hopes for a good intake of Prep students for 2015. Prep and other enrolments are now being accepted for the start of the 2015 academic year at Federal State School. Parents of children due to start their formal education next year are invited to contact the school for a familiarisation tour. “Federal State School is a special place to learn and a special place to teach. We take great effort to create a learning environment that is friendly, safe and happy, while still maintaining our academic integrity,” said Principal Natalie Pilkington. “We try to ensure small class sizes in prep to year 3 where we provide a strong foundation for learning leading on to later years”. Federal State School has just 16 students in Prep this year, from a total of school enrolment of 90 students. It consistently scores high in Naplan testing, an outcome linked to committed teachers and small class sizes. The school is more than 100 years old, but occupies state-ofthe-art facilities, the result of the school being relocated from its old site on the Old Bruce Highway to across the road to Middle Creek Road in 2011 to make way for the new Bruce Highway upgrade. Please phone the school Principal Natalie or Bronwyn in the Office for further information on 5480 8600 or email the school at admin@federalss.eq.edu.au

MARY VALLEY MV State College students join kids’ green army and celebrate 15 years of environment action

S

tudents from Mary Valley State College will join forces with four other local schools and more than 10,000 kids across Australia and join a green army that has been ‘fighting the good fight’ for the environment for 15 years. Using science experiments, theatrical performances, songs and hands-on activities, the students will teach each other about environmental issues during the 2014 Target Kids Teaching Kids Week which is being held between 8-12 September.

wetland area or the establishment of a waste water campaign or things as simple as school recycling programs, kids have wonderful ideas and this program allows them to put their concepts into action,” he said. For more information contact Zela Bissett (teacher) or Jenny Kent (Principal) Mary Valley College on 5488 5333.

Landcare and threatened species on show

Throughout its 15 years, Kids Teaching Kids has been enlisting green army recruits. Their mission is to educate themselves, their classmates and their communities about issues like climate change, conservation, energy, water, and population growth. Mary Valley State College will be hosting one of about 500 events taking place Australia-wide during Target Kids Teaching Kids Week with students from Dagun, Amamoor, Jones Hill and Gympie South state schools attending the event on Friday 12 September. Students will be presenting workshops on local endangered species, cooking with local produce, conducting garden tours and making nesting boxes for native animals. There will also be a free adults program to showcase local Mary Valley ventures in sustainable livelihoods, with speakers from a range of local food, arts, craft and ecotourism enterprises. Speakers will also include local experts in landcare, waste management, bush tucker and other aspects of indigenous culture, gardening, weed management and much more. Kids Teaching Kids creator Arron Wood, who was Environmentalist of the Year for his environmental education efforts, said that Australia should be proud of its kids’ green army.

L

and for Wildlife participants and interested members of the public are invited to Gympie Landcare on Sunday 7 September to learn about controlling the menace of Cats Claw Creeper and Madeira Vine. The day will provide an opportunity to learn about Landcare’s biological control facility which is rearing insects that feed on Cats Claw Creeper and Madeira Vine. The Mary River Catchment Committee’s Chair, Ian Mackay and Gympie Landcare Chair, Ernie Rider both agreed it was the ideal time to hold the workshop, as Cats Claw Creeper will be starting to flower very soon, and the day will provide landholders with the tools and techniques to combat the viny menace, one of the worst weeds in the Gympie region. The day will also celebrate National Threatened Species Day which commemorates the death in captivity of the last Tasmanian Tiger in 1936. The MRCCC’s Dr Tanzi Smith will speak about the Mary River Threatened Aquatic Species Recovery Plan, and the endangered species the plan targets which includes the Mary River Cod, the Lungfish, the Mary River Turtle, the Giant Barred Frog and the Freshwater Mullet (see photo top).

“Education is their weapon of choice. Green army recruits are all under the age of 17 and they’ve been fighting the good fight for the environment for the past 15 years. Kids Teaching Kids is about empowering the youth of this country to declare war on pollution, habitat destruction and global warming,” Arron said. “Our green-armed forces have been achieving some phenomenal results – whether it’s the restoration of a

There will also be a talk on threatened plants, a tour of the Landcare nursery and plant sales, and the opportunity to view the Once an Endangered Species DVD, which tells the story of the mighty Mary River Cod. The day begins at 9.30am and includes a sausage sizzle and bring-a-plate lunch.

OUR COMMUNITY Good Shepherd Music Students Excel

F

ollowing their successful musical ‘The Little Mermaid Jr’, Good Shepherd Lutheran College music students achieved outstanding results at the recent Eisteddfod competitions at Gympie and Nambour. Many students achieved places in their solos and duets but it was their combined talents in The GSLC Primary Orchestra that achieved first place at both the Gympie and Nambour Eisteddfod. Not to be outdone, the Primary Quartets (pictured) took out 1st, 2nd and 3rd places at Nambour and 1st, 2nd and highly commended at Gympie. Special note should be made of Silvi Eckley, strings tutor and conductor who works tirelessly with the Good Shepherd Primary Strings ensembles. On Monday night, 11 August, four GSLC students cleaned up in the final of Sunshine’s Got Talent held at the Sunshine Beach Surf Club.

Life Chats …

he camera. A truly marvellous invention for society. May we give thanks to George Eastman, for his stellar creation. Called the “Kodak”, it was first offered for sale in 1888. Of course, technology is never still for a moment. By the mid-2000’s digital cameras had largely replaced the standard film camera. Phew, what a relief I say. I could not stand my kids doing what I did as a kid with my little box “brownie” camera. It was rough in the old days of course with your “brownie”. There was a screen to look through, a button to press and according to plan, the photographer behind the camera, was going to capture magical moments in time. My parents would begrudgingly rush my roll of film down to the camera processing retail outlet. The photo lab assistant would politely inform them of collection time. In parent hand, a little receipt of confirmation as proof. Photos soon! Oooooh, the excitement and adrenalin rush you would try and contain. You were certain there were “amazing” shots captured and to see them in print was going to be something. That’s when the old film way of camera usage was such an interesting experience. Hands shaking, you would open your folded over processed film envelope. All those sensational shots and to be let down quite instantaneously. Pictures fuzzy, people’s head’s not centred, wrong lighting, too far away from subject, too close to subject and of course a kid who was just being silly and taking shots of things that really weren’t important or did not matter. Well for full intent and purposes, it did apparently matter. Parents peering at you with disdain as you apparently had wasted their hard earned cash on a film with no pictures for use. May I put in print now, I can see your point mother and father. It was a bit crazy. All those years later, creative camera pursuits are still being explored by children. Blessed though to have trusty digital in hand which I willingly pass onto my children. Disastrous photos gone, with a quick delete button click. Digital camera operator, Nicola, photo herewith.

Make a poppy as a tribute of respect and remembrance

H

elp Sunshine Coast Council reach the goal of making 5000 poppies as a tribute of respect and remembrance to mark 100 years since Australian troops landed at Gallipoli. In 1921 the red Memorial Poppy was first worn on Armistice Day (now Remembrance Day) in Australia and has been worn on November 11 each year since. It has become a widely accepted symbol throughout the allied nations to be worn on Remembrance Day. Division 5 Councillor Jenny McKay said Australia is commemorating the Anzac Centenary marking 100 years since Australia’s involvement in the First World War and 2015 marks 100 years since Australian troops landed at Gallipoli. “As part of this commemoration Sunshine Coast library branches will join thousands all over Australia to celebrate Remembrance Day on November 11,” Cr McKay said. “We are inviting community members to join in the 5000 Poppies Project and attend a range of workshops across the Coast and create a poppy which will be displayed at local Remembrance Day celebrations this year. You can also ask at your local library for details about poppy making workshops. “The poppies will be sent to Melbourne for the Anzac Day celebrations in Federation Square, Melbourne in April 2015, becoming part of the 5000 Poppy project. “And children won’t miss out as Beerwah and Maleny libraries will be creating poppies at craft sessions in the September school holidays.” For more details visit

MARY VALLEY IMBIL POLICE BRIEFS

N

o doubt most people would be aware that the Gympie region has experienced a high number of traffic crashes recently. There have been seven fatal crashes in the Gympie area in the past two months. Imbil Division has not been immune with one fatal crash in July. We have had 10 crashes in the past two months with four in a week in Moy Pocket Road. With the high number of crashes, attention is being drawn to the Gympie area and the Imbil Police Division. Police are conducting numerous traffic operations in the area and enforcement is on the increase. Police from outside the area have been tasked to perform traffic patrols in this area. Police are also conducting education campaigns and working with outside agencies to address the problem. We make no apologies for the increased enforcement. Anyone who thinks we are just revenue raising is welcome to attend the next fatal traffic crash with me and then can come and advise the next of kin that their son, daughter, mother, father, sister or brother won’t be home tonight. The carnage has to stop. Traffic crashes are caused by the deliberate actions of road users and that is why we don’t call them accidents. Drivers make deliberate choices to speed, drink drive, drive while tired, not to wear seat belts or be distracted while driving. Drivers make deliberate choices to use mobile phones while driving, look away from the road to change a CD or radio station or get a hamburger from the passenger’s seat. It is a deliberate action to respond to other passengers or children misbehaving in the back seat or to read a map or change a navigation system. All of these distractions can and DO cause fatal traffic crashes. I have heard the argument “I used my mobile phone while driving and nothing happened.” Of course this is true and probably using a phone while driving will cause one crash per 1000 phone uses. Do you want to take the chance on being the one? It is like playing Russian roulette. Do you want to take the chance that your loved ones will be advised that you are not coming home because you took a phone call or sent a text? The Police have had enough of attending fatal crashes and any crash for that matter. We have had enough of advising relatives that their loved ones will not be coming home. We have had enough of seeing the waste of a life because someone made a mistake while driving. We have had enough of seeing injured people having their lives wrecked by the actions of themselves or some other person. We have had enough of the screams of pain of people injured in traffic crashes. Police are doing all they can to stop the road carnage. It is now time for the community to step up. It is time for drivers to take responsibility for their actions. It is time for drivers to obey the road rules, drive to the conditions, and not to speed, drink drive, drive while fatigued, or be distracted while driving and to wear seat belts. It is time to concentrate while driving. You do not have to be in the wrong to be killed in the traffic crash. Be aware of what is going on around you. You are in charge of a tonne or more of metal travelling at up to 110km/hr on a road. There is another tonne or more of metal around you doing the same thing. When they collide, the consequences can be catastrophic. With this comes great responsibility – you are responsible for your actions. You are responsible for how that tonne of metal travels on the road what is inside the cargo. Most times, your children or loved ones. Please take care on the roads and be aware of what is going on around you. Please obey the traffic laws. Please arrive safely at your destination and do all you can to make sure that others on the road with you, arrive safely at their destination. PLEASE STOP THE CARNAGE. Terry Kennedy Bill Greer Sergeant Senior Constable

TALKING ABOUT CLIMATE CHANGE

lot of people have heard of the ice ages, those long millions of years periods of cold with interglacials (warmer periods in between) but does everyone know of the changes of climate over the last 110 000 years? The following table shows the alternating cold and warm periods during that time: Pleistocene Ice Age (cold) 110 000 - 14 700 bp (before present) Bolling (warm) 14 000 - 13 900 bp Older Dryas (cold) 13 900 - 13 600 bp Allerod (warm) 13 600 - 12 900 bp Younger Dryas (cold) 12 900 - 11 600 bp Holocene Warming a (warm) 11 600 - 8 500 bp Egyptian Cooling (cold) 8 500 - 8 000 bp Holocene Warming b (warm) 8 000 - 5 600 bp Akkadian Cooling (cold) 5 600 - 3 500 bp Minoan Warming (warm) 3 500 - 3 200 bp Bronze Age Cooling (cold) 3 200 - 2 500 bp Roman Warming (warm) 500 BC - 535 AD Dark Ages (cold) 535 AD - 900 AD Medieval Warming (warm) 900 AD - 1350 AD Little Ice Age (cold) 1350 AD - 1830 AD Present Warming (warm) 1830 AD - ? You have to take 2014 years away from the years bp (before present) to get BC (Before Christ). The Bronze Age started warm then there was a temperature collapse to a bitterly cold period with little rainfall. The Little Ice Age began with the Sporer Minimum (a very quiet sun with few sunspots and days of no sunspots), it was still cold but warmed up a little until the Maunder Minimum (very cold with low sun spot activity) then warmed up a bit until the Dalton Minimum when the Thames River froze over and wagons could cross and Ice Fairs were held on the Thames. Space Weather shows the number of sunspots each day and there have been few for a number of years now. The start of the cold of winter has been creeping back from the end of May for the last few years. There has to be a cooling trend of 30 years before you can say that the climate may be changing.
