Drag strip plans get tick of approval from assessment panel Welcomes Perri Leenders Perri won the 2009 Hairdressing Apprentice of the Year and won 3rd and also runner up in the recent IHS State Haridressing Awards. Ring to book an appointment with Perri today

IT has taken more than eight years of persistent lobbying and frustration but now plans have finally been approved to construct a drag strip and driver education facility in the Riverland. In what was described as a last ditch effort, the Riverland Motorsport Club faced the Riverland Development Assessment Panel last week, where the club’s application for the facility was given the green light to proceed.

REPORT BY

BRAD PERRY

Riverland Motorsport Club president Denis Oates said receiving the tick of approval for the club’s application was a huge relief. “It’s unbelievable the amount of hurdles we have had to jump over for this,” he said. Work is expected to start

on the facility, to be based at the Riverland Field Days site in Barmera, early next year and depending on funding, Mr Oates hopes to have the strip up and running before 2012. “We’ve already had a verbal okay from the Native Vegetation Council back in August 2009, so now we have just got to get all the paperwork in order there,” he said. ■ Continued Page 5

BERRI Barmera Council chief executive officer David Beaton believes more community consultation is needed to determine the best long term option for the future of Lake Bonney but could not say whether the regulator would be removed in the near future Mr Beaton, Berri Barmera Council Mayor Peter Hunt and deputy mayor Trevor Chapple yesterday met with State Water Minister Paul Caica to discuss the removal of Lake Bonney’s temporary regulator and its future options. “The minister was understanding of the community concerns about Lake Bonney and the need to have the options going forward,” Mr Beaton said. “Without predicting anything (about the regulator removal), I think we will be looking to have some public consultation into the community about some of the options going forward. “It’s about the long term management of the lake and it’s about whether or not that is one of the viable options of the lake going forward.” The Lake Bonney Management Committee is seeking $40,000 to finalise long term management options for the lake and Mr Beaton said he is unsure whether the regulator would be part of that. “He understands there is things that need to go on in the committee, the council and his department and he was very respectful and I believe he has got a good understanding of the issues. “If the regulator was removed, the $40,000 may or may not be needed. “The State Government has got tight budgets and they want to spend as least amount of money as possible. “Hopefully there is plenty more flows from the rain coming down anyway.” Meanwhile, Barmera residents are holding a bucket rally this Sunday to protest the fact Lake Bonney’s temporary regulator is still in place. Adults and children of all ages are being urged to bring a bucket at 10am to show the State Government their desire to have the lake reconnected to the River Murray. Member for Chaffey Tim Whetstone has furthered calls for the regulator to be removed, describing it as a “lemon” in his latest newsletter.

Support this great proposal

Word of the Week . . . Drag strip, noun

I AM by no means a motorsport fan but, as a sports fanatic, can understand why many people are, so can appreciate the excitement that many locals must be feeling after plans for a motorsport facility at Barmera were approved last week. Motorsport fans are a passionate bunch (the local ones definitely must be after their major battle to get this far with their proposal) and will travel anywhere for an event. This means that tourism figures across the region will likely increase with the development of this facility right here in our very own region. Speaking to an Adelaide based relative recently, I realised the frustration within the entire SA motorsport community regarding the lack of a drag strip anywhere in this state. Bearing this in mind, this facility has the potential to not just become a Riverland icon but one of which the whole state can be proud. The Riverland should continue to get behind this massive project and ensure any obstacles are overcome quickly. Best of luck to all involved in this excellent proposal for our region.

Gearing up for big appeal

By BRAD PERRY

THE wheels are in motion for this year’s Riverland Christmas Appeal and organisers are predicting more people will need help this festive season than ever before. Riverland Christmas Appeal publicity officer Sue Whittingham said it was a fantastic effort to put together 500 hampers last year but she is hoping even more businesses, both in the Riverland and beyond, will donate this year. “We have a feeling it might be more (than 500 hampers) this year,” she said. “We are seeing people, who used to donate goods in the past, are now coming in for help.

“If people don’t get money from the blocks it affects kids and it affects what they can afford.” Food and toys are required to help the appeal to fill its hampers and bring a little joy to families doing it tough this Christmas. In past years children’s toys and food items such as hams, tinned fruit, jam coffee/tea, sugar, biscuits, cakes, tinned vegetables, nuts, dried fruit and juice or cordial have been donated. Mrs Whittingham said any donations, including cash, are also welcome. The committee has already had a number of meetings and said applications for donations will be out next month, with hampers to be

packed in December. “We need to know really by the end of November what we are going to have to go out and buy,” she said. “What the donations

don’t cover, we need to buy.” Mrs Whittingham, who has been involved with the Christmas Appeal for almost a decade, said the Riverland is very generous when its

people are in need. “Each year I am amazed at what the Riverland does for its own people,” she said. “They are amazingly considerate and amazingly

helpful and if they think that somebody needs helping out, they are very willing to help.” Last year the committee gave vouchers to struggling farmers on small blocks and ran a toy and tucker run and Mrs Whittingham is hopeful the committee will have those options in place again this year. Donations of cash, toys and non-perishable foods can be dropped off at ac.care Berri, Families SA Berri, Loxton’s Loxcare, Renmark’s Chaffey House Community Centre, St Vincent De Paul Barmera and Waikerie Community Centre. Donations can also be sent to PO Box 60 Berri SA 5343.

Vet practices issue warning as snake season arrives

By BRAD PERRY

RIVERLAND vets have warned dog and cat owners to be wary of snakes in coming months with the cooler weather creating ground cover for the dangerous reptile. Local clinics have stocked up on antivenom ahead of the summer months with the mulga (king brown) and brown snake expected to be out in full force. Riverland Veterinary Practice manager Gill Beeson said the clinic expects to see over 100 cases of snake bites during this year’s snake season, with five already reported in the past two months.

“We actually stock more (antivenom) than the human hospital at Berri,” she said. “Because we’ve had a lot of rain this year...along the river or parks there is more cover for snakes. “(During summer) we would see three or four per week.” Antivenom to treat animals is expensive and Mrs Beeson said pet owners without insurance are often forced to make a difficult decision if their animal is bitten. “Costs can range from $1000 to $3000 or $4000 for a brown snake or three times that for a mulga,” she said. “It’s a terrible situa-

tion for clients to be in and my heart goes out to them. “There is pet insurance available...and that will certainly cover it.” Mrs Beeson said cats are inquisitive hunters and are often more prone to snake attacks than dogs. “Dogs are more likely to have a serious venomation (than cats),” she said. “Cats are a lot slower in showing symptoms.” Mrs Beeson said some pets bitten by snakes do not need treatment depending on the amount of venom received from the attack. However, there are

Date palm irrigator shows concern for future food security GURRA Downs Irrigator Dave Riley, best known for his award winning date palms, has expressed his concern at food security issues being experienced in South Australia and the Riverland. Mr Riley’s comments, made at last Friday’s Murray Darling Basin Authority meeting in Renmark, follow his disappointment at missing out on funding provided under the first round of the $100 million Private Irrigators Infrastructure Program for the state. Mr Riley asked federal water department representative Mary

Harwood, who administers the funding, why his application had not been successful. “The basis of that (funding application) was to relocate a pump from the Gurra wetlands,” Mr Riley said. “We’ve been irrigating with very salty water over a long period of time and we’ve been promised a pipeline since 2007. “What we are doing now is we are irrigating with 5800 EC units of salt and we are trying to protect our government backed investment with date palms and also we are trying to grow winegrapes and pomegranates to

many symptoms cats and dogs will show within a 24 hour period if bitten by a snake, with some needing urgent veterinary help either immediately or within 12 hours. Those symptoms can include paralysis or collapse, breathing problems, vomit, dribbling and fixed staring. “If they have got a heartbeat, then we have got a good chance,” Mrs Beeson said. The veterinary surgery has a quick detection test which can identify what sort of snake has bitten the animal and Mrs Beeson said Jack Russell’s are the main dog type that Riverland clinics see.

help fund this venture. “We’ve put in this application and just found out this week from the department that our funding did not rank highly enough on a merits criteria from that funding round. “I was also informed that program wasn’t fully subscribed, so in other words there is a still room for the South Australian component, which was $106 million. Mrs Harwood said she is open to feedback about the infrastructure program. “There were six projects, from memory, which were successful and a number that weren’t, including Dave’s,” she said. “We are open to talking about how

I can work closely with my clients to find the level of treatment, care and team involvement they need to improve their health. With so many opportunities to experience new situations, learn new skills and master new models of care, every day is different.

we might restructure or change the way that program works and we are aware that the demand for that program in South Australia for the first round, at least, was fairly low compared to some other programs elsewhere.” Mr Riley said he believes his application fits the criteria with the date palm project offering modernisation and on farm water savings. “I think you should have a review of that assessment criteria against the ability for us to grow food crops and feed our families and what the future holds for us.”

Start of a crucial four week period for farmers

■ PEST PROBLEM: After starting to hatch in September (pictured), the locust plague will be hitting maturity over coming weeks. Photos: JANE WILSON By BRAD PERRY RIVERLAND farmers have a crucial four week period ahead when it comes to ridding locusts as the weather warms and harvest deadlines loom closer. The Loxton Locust Control Centre is receiving more than 50 reports of locust hatchings from farmers and growers every day but despite the high number of bands forming on blocks and farms, no major damage has occurred in the

region to date. SARDI entomologist Kym Perry, who is part of the survey team in the region, said cool weather in the past week has slowed down locust activity. However, as the weather warms, Mr Perry is warning farmers to be on closer lookout for the pest. “With a few warm days coming up, they are going to become

more active and develop a lot quicker,” he said. “There is no doubt there is high numbers out there. “We think we are prepared to get on top of it but things are going to start hotting up now with the warmer weather and farmers are going to need to be right on top of it. “Pretty soon we are going to have to worry about withholding periods on crops close to harvest, so we have got a fairly short window.”

With aerial spraying across the Riverland and Mallee expected to get under way today, Mr Perry said individual landowners are already spraying or close to, hoping to wipe out the locust threat. “Some of these targets are definitely ready to spray now, so I would say the next three or four weeks are going to be extremely hectic,” he said. “A lot of hatchings have been found along fence lines and roadsides, particularly adjacent to tree lines. “A lot of land holders are

pretty on the ball and have been out there spraying particularly on crop edges. “I think farmers have got to watch their pasture paddocks because we’re finding quite a bit in some of them and obviously they are not routinely monitored, so they should get out there and have a look.” Meanwhile, PIRSA chief Geoff Knight and Biosecurity SA’s executive director Will Zacharin are inspecting locust hatchings and operations in the region today.

Drag strip plans approved ■ From Page 1

“Crown Land have already agreed to transfer that into the control of Berri Barmera Council and they are the main two things. “Funding is our next major hurdle but we couldn’t apply for funding until we had something in our name.” The Riverland Development Assessment Panel has capped events at the site to eight per year (three regional racing events and five club events) and Mr Oates said those events could bring millions of dollars to the Riverland. “We’ve been saying we need more motorsport options, especially the drag side of things, because there is nowhere for people to race,” he said. “We had a tri-state hot rod meeting and we actually heard from a couple of guys that once the Riverland drag strip is up and running, they are pulling the pin in Adelaide and they are going to move their business up into the Riverland. “Once we get going you won’t be able to find accommodation around and a lot of the businesses will benefit from it.” Mr Oates said the Riverland drag strip will be the only quarter mile concrete racing complex in Australia. A state-of-the-art driver education venue at the site will also benefit Riverland drivers, according to Mr Oates. “It should do (cut down on hoon driving) because there will be no excuse for them to go out

question, provided the strip is there.” Mr Matthews said both the drag strip and driver education facility have the potential to bring people from across the country and beyond to the Riverland. “Unless you’re involved in the car scene, it is very hard to comprehend the amount of money these events can bring to regions,” he said. Berri Barmera Council Mayor Peter Hunt said council has always been behind building the facility. “Our council has always helped push the motorsport club into getting this drag strip facility,” he said. “It’s great for our region and for council. “Council have certainly been well and truly behind them and things don’t happen overnight and that was unfortunately what a lot of the (Riverland Motorsport Club) members were getting disgruntled about.” The dragstrip facility, which will be named at a meeting next week, will see stage one include a 1.6 kilometre long drag racing strip, concrete barriers, burnout and skid pads and an eight metre high spectator mound. The construction of clubrooms, with catering and amenities (which will also be used as a classroom for driver education), officials and time keeping box, as well as timing gear and staging lights will feature in stage two. The final stage plans are for a second spectator mound, lighting to host night events and an

CFS urges locals: Clean up your act By LES PEARSON THE Country Fire Service is gearing up for a hot summer with huge wildfire fuel loads, unseen in a long time. Chaffey group officer Rob Ziersch and regional fire prevention officer Andrew Patten issued warnings to locals this week as spring gets into full swing. “This time of year, we’re really promoting to farmers, land owners and even people in town, to clean up their yards,” Mr Ziersch said. “It is probably the worst year for grass growth that we have seen for many, many years. “Get that fuel load down as low as they can.” “They should be checking weekly but it’s just a case of when it starts growing again to touch up those areas you have previously sprayed or cut,” Mr Patten said. He said locals need only to look at the devastation of the Eyre Peninsula fires in 2005, which killed nine people and injured 113, to really bring the message home. “This area around here, is very similar to the landscape around Wangary on Eyre Peninsula, famous for Black Tuesday,” he said. “That’s basically because the fuel load here is consistent with that area and the climatology is quite consistent during summer.” Volunteer numbers are solid, however, Mr Ziersch said the CFS will not turn anyone interested in helping out away. “We’ve certainly got enough to respond to an emergency but we

RIVERLANDERS will attend the Murray Darling Basin Authority’s consultation meetings in Adelaide and Mildura next week after leaving last Friday’s Riverland gatherings with few answers. More than 1500 locals attended two meetings at Renmark on Friday looking for justifications of cuts in allocations of between 26 and 35 per cent. Many arrived on tractors to protest their dismay at the proposed cuts. Among the crowd at the morning meeting was State Opposition leader Isobel Redmond, Federal Senator Nick Xenophon and Federal Coalition Murray Darling Basin spokesman Senator Simon Birmingham. MDBA chairman Mike Taylor conceded figures in the plan were wrong and instead of answering directly, told Riverlanders to put their questions in a submission to be considered by the authority. “We will certainly keep an open mind about testing but I wouldn’t want to describe what we have been doing as an ambit claim,” he told meeting attendees. “What we have done is the very best we can off the analytical modelling scientific information we’ve got and also we have set out the policy framework on which we have made those decisions. “There is a line in the act that says ‘do this and do this and increase water security’ and you think, ‘I am just being honest’, well, it’s easy to write that but you can’t actually change the climatic conditions. “I think the important issue about efficiency is actually getting some submissions on it, I think that would be a very helpful thing to do. “To be fair to the report, it’s saying it’s 800 jobs in the basin and we can say that’s not accurate but it goes on to say because of the flow on

impacts of the jobs...it will be 3000 jobs.” During the meeting, Riverland irrigators were hoping for acknowledgement of their efficiency in water use they had achieved in the past 40 years but Mr Taylor said other communities are just as efficient. “I think it’s always important to give recognition to the fact that there are very efficient irrigators right across the basin and quite significant numbers of them,” he said. “I didn’t actually say we wouldn’t look at efficiency, I said how we have gone about the current process.” Member for Chaffey Tim Whetstone called for Mr Taylor’s resignation. “Everyone here today is being put on a knife edge, they are living a life of anxiety through the indecision by the Murray Darling Basin Authority,” Mr Whetstone said. “You stand up there and you make comments with a smile, I think it’s disgraceful. “Everyone’s life is on hold here at the moment. “If you can’t give us some direct answers you need to hand in your resignation.” However, Mr Taylor responded by saying all work carried out by the authority has been under

specific framework. “We didn’t create the uncertainty, we are required by the legislation to bring down a draft and we are required to go through a process laid down by the Australian Parliament,” he said. “When you actually put anything on the table you, by any assessment, create some uncertainty.” Mr Taylor said the socio-economic impacts of the plan have not yet been fully recognised. “I think we ought to be very strong about recognising that all communities are going to actually have big impacts as this is implemented and we have not yet made any implementation decisions as we are at a first draft and we’ve got yet another draft to go before we even get near a final plan,” he said. In question time during the Murray Darling Basin Authority’s morning consultation meeting in Renmark, Waikerie irrigator Justin Loffler asked one of the two rooms full of people who was happy with the current draft. Amongst more than 600 people, just four raised their hands. ■ Further basin plan views on page 17.

TWO major positives came out of the first ever cancellation of the Bank SA Riverland Wine and Food Festival on Friday last week, over security risks due to dangerous weather. Event manager Amy Martinson said both 919 Wines and Banrock Station, having secured the live entertainment scheduled to play at the Saturday festival, had huge crowds flow through their doors. “The music was a big factor,” she said. “It was just unfortunate Every cellar door that participated in the alternative we didn’t have program was pleased with the numbers. more than two bands.” Other wineries around the region also driver vouchers came back to to the Sunday or the week after, all of which would result had a strong number of cel- operators,” she said.

This stops the harvester pushing against the vines and instead follows the trellising. Their service aims to look after the grower in all facets, taking the stress out of harvest for the grower.

From landscapes of the region to still lifes and portaits...

Dorrie’s got it down to an art

By BRAD PERRY

THROUGH 88 year old Dorrie Ellard’s brush, she paints a picture of hope. The Berri resident, who started painting at the age of 63, has donated more than $3000 from the sale of her art work to immunise children against disease in Haiti following the devastating earthquake earlier this year. Dorrie recently received a service award from the Adventist Development and Relief Agency of Australia for her dedication to the Haiti cause and has her talent with the brush to thank. “All the babies and little children over there in the hospital were not able to be immunised because there was not enough money,� she said. “I just feel I have had so much in my life, it is only fair to share it.� What began as a suggestion from a colleague turned to fruition when Dorrie realised she was a natural artist at the age of 63 and since then has painted thousands of pieces. “When I lost my husband, that was a sudden and a big shock because he was such a strong healthy person,� she said. “I was left with a very empty

life, so I have just put it all into my painting. “Everything’s a learning process but evidently I must have had the ability (to paint).� Dorrie held her first exhibition within a year of picking up a paint brush and has since shared her gift with thousands of people throughout the Riverland and beyond. “I’ve done over 200 portraits alone,� she said. “I just sit and paint, sometimes I will paint until 10 or 11 o’clock. “That (knowing my paintings are hanging in people’s homes) gives me more satisfaction than anything. “I just hope they pass them on to their kids who might like them.� In fact, Dorrie’s artwork has been flown across the world with her pieces hanging in England, Hong Kong, Denmark, America and Canada. Working in many different forms including water colour, oils, pastel and pencil, Dorrie said inspiration does not always come easy. “I just love doing it and I love to see the finished article when sometimes I struggle so much and I put it aside and I think I am not going to touch it again and then I go past and I suddenly see some-

thing that will make it right for me,� she said. “It’s kept me sane really. “Everywhere (in the Riverland) is just a place to paint.� Dorrie also has several other hobbies which keep her busy including teaching Tai Chi and collecting dolls from all over the world. Her collection of dolls is possibly the most extensive in the Riverland with more than 6000 to date.

A SERIOUS SHOUTT

A LOCAL truck driver was the winner of the Regional Development Australia (RDA) Riverland competition to come up with a new idea that could be developed to benefit the region. Mark Wilksch, of Berri, submitted a suggestion to turn the vacant Fletcher’s Freighters site into a regional transport hub, winning the $1000 prize. Mr Wilksch’s idea was one of 12 entries submitted, including ideas of a Disney type theme park, a local market in Renmark and the development of a new regional conference, convention and exhibition centre. RDA board members and employees judged the entries based on best idea and likelihood of success. “I think the fact that we’ve already got the site there, along with the infrastructure, really became the selling point of that idea,

RDA economic development manager Cathy Beaton said. “Transport set-ups in the region seem to be scattered everywhere, they seem to cross over each other, so it would be good to have one central hub and work their way out from there,� Mr Wilksch said.

This has all opened my eyes to how the process works and where the first step is.

“It wasn’t really an idea for me, it was something obvious, it should just be there.� Mr Wilksch was also surprised with how well the RDA works with clients when developing an idea. “This has all opened

my eyes to how the process works and where the first step is, followed by the second step,� he said. Mrs Beaton said that was the aim of the competition. “The competition was about marketing the RDA and what we do,� she said. “I think it’s about creating this awareness in the community that there are possibilities and that no idea is a silly idea. Mrs Beaton said the service is also available for private enterprises. “We’ve had a number of businesses come in and say ‘how can I reinvent or re-establish myself’,� she said. “We’ve got a business advisor in Cindy Nolan, who works with people one on one, providing business planning and advice, so it can develop into all sorts of things. “Anything to do with the economic, social and the environmental aspects of our community is our focus.�

Local success for top dogs By LES PEARSON

A F F E CT I O N AT E LY known as man’s best friend, dogs make fantastic pets but can prove quite a handful if not trained or taught basic discipline. This can be an art in itself, something Monash dog trainer Kay Richardson knows only too well. Mrs Richardson has been training dogs for competition for 28 years and said it strengthens the bond between pet and master. “It depends on how much time you put in,” she said. Her most recent success came recently at the State Games Championships held in Adelaide,

Riverland

People

where her Shetland sheepdogs Rose and Stormy picked up awards. In the novice class, Stormy claimed three titles, while Rose achieved a pass in the strategic pairs excellence class. Mrs Richardson said the strategic pairs event is considerably chaotic with two dogs making their way through the obstacle course at the same time but Rose stuck to task and

achieved the feat. She uses a combination of food and encouragement to train her dogs and said it is important to be clear to determine between right and wrong. “You have to be firm and consistent,” Mrs Richardson said. She has five dogs competing at the moment, including a kelpie (Chocolatedog), cattledog (Codie) and a silky terrier cross (Matty). Of all her dogs over the years, her favourite remains a Shetl a n d sheepd o g

named Prince. “He was really good, really in tune with you,” Mrs Richardson reflected. “He was quite special.” The Riverland Dog Obedience and Kennel Club meets weekly at the Riverland Field Days site for training classes, with obedience held Wednesday nights and agility classes on Monday nights. Dogs must be fully vaccinated and at least four and a half months old. Anyone looking for more information can contact Mrs Richardson on 8583 5325.

Professional bra fitting will save long term pain and discomfort SOMETHING as simple as getting the right bra for you can save you years of pain and discomfort down the track. Julie Moore, Berlei sales manager for South Australia, will visit Adrienne’s Frock Salon this Friday between 10am and 4pm to offer customers professional bra fittings. There are significant health reasons why women should be fitted professionally. Firstly, it is important for posture. “Ladies that are really big that don’t support their bust get bad back and shoulder pain,” she said. “Physiotherapists will tell them to get properly fitted for support.” Julie explained why supportive bras are important for women that play sport. “Breasts don’t have muscle; they are made up of ligaments,” she said. “Once ligaments are stretched they don’t repair themselves and that’s when they end up

facing south.” For pregnant ladies, a good maternity bra is a must. “Pregnant women should not wear wires because the breast is constantly changing and can cause pressure points which could cause mastitis,” Julie said. “Women should get fitted at three to four months and four weeks before the baby is due.” Most women do not get their bras fitted properly. In fact, it is estimated that approximately 90 per cent of women in the Riverland and Mallee have not had a professional fitting. There are a few reasons why women do not get their bras properly fitted. For some ladies it is modesty and many say they don’t have the time. Others simply have bought illfitting bras off the rack not understanding what a difference a professionally fitted bra would make. “They don’t realise that if they get a well fitted bra, they will be a

to feel uncomfortable about getting professional advice and help with bras”. Julie urged all women to visit professional fitters to ensure they

FROM world-famous Gary Myers’ 1966 Mustang Coupe last year, to this year’s Dyno shoot-out – the Riverland AutoExpo keeps firing on all cylinders. Riverland AutoExpo organising committee member Trevor Taylor is hopeful this year’s show can be the biggest in its 17 year history. Since its inaugural year, the AutoExpo has continued to grow, reaching a record number of cars (150) in 2009. Trevor, along with wife Cheryle, is excited by the build-up to this year’s AutoExpo, and remains confident the Dyno shoot-out can draw the same numbers seen when Myers’ Mustang Coupe Silver Bullet, sped into Loxton. This year, a change of venue and additional attractions will see a different line-up to the AutoExpo. It will be held at the Steve Poutakidis Sports Ground in Renmark. “Yeah, we’re really looking forward to it,� Trevor said. “There was a heck of a lot of interest last year, we got 150 cars last year and that was a record. “There are cars coming from Port Augusta, Adelaide and Melbourne, as well as there being quite a few locals.� Trevor is hopeful the Dyno will be the crowd-puller this year, and admitted it being a shame for Myers not to return. “No, Gary isn’t coming this year and that is a shame, so we’re hoping

the Dyno will be the crowd-puller this year,� he said. “The last few years, we have had a Dyno and it is becoming the main attraction this year. “Spectators liked it and we sort of let that go for a couple of years.� It is the sixth consecutive year the AutoExpo has been presented by the Riverland Motorsport Club and despite there being a record number of cars at last year’s show, Trevor said local crowds need to continue supporting the event. “We’ve got the Dyno to boost that back up again,� he said. Trevor also announced the line-up of entertainment "OOKPURNONG 4CE for the night. “When the Dyno is not ,OXTON there, we’ve got a DJ, one of -/$%2.

means to the region. “Well, it brings vehicles to the area that not a lot of people can see,� he said. “Most times, you’ve got to go to Adelaide to see car shows, so we are letting people see them. “We’re also promoting the Driver’s Education Facility and drag strip in Barmera.� Trevor announced a number of stalls will be at the show as well. “A bloke is coming up from Mildura and he’ll have a stall, Formula Paints, our major sponsor, have a stand as well, and possibly Ken’s Exhaust,� Trevor said. “There will also be a jumping castle and food and drinks for everyone.� The Riverland AutoExpo will be held on Saturday, November 6, between 10am and 4pm at the Steve Poutakidis Sports Ground, Renmark. On Sunday, a cruise will be held, departing the Renmark Plaza at 10am and travelling through various Riverland towns before finishing at Lake Bonney, Barmera, for a barbecue.

Final plan submitted

By BRAD PERRY

THE WAIKERIE and Districts Health Advisory Council recently presented its final 10 Year Local Health Service Plan to Country Health SA and is now looking for financial support to begin implementing its objectives. Waikerie and Districts HAC presiding member Justin Loffler said the committee is now working its way through issues raised in the plan. “There were some minor changes to the draft plan from the feedback,” he said.

“Everyone is happy to see that something is actually happening. “Hopefully we can get some positive work from it. “We will need some response from the powers that be.” The HAC is now working towards established goals in the decade long plan with local hospitals and doctors. “I don’t think there is anything unrealistic in there, it can all be done, it is just a matter of working towards it as a community over the next few years,” Mr Loffler said. Mr Loffler said the response from

the community has been positive. The bigger issues outlined in the health plan include recruitment, retention of staff, skilled staff and training nurses. “There is a fairly big emphasis, particularly for the older people, about aged care,” he said. “We want to be able to address some transport issues in terms of if the service isn’t available here, what people are going to do. “(We need) a bit more information for people about what is available here, or what is available

at maybe Berri and some of the other hospitals.” Feedback from the public consultation, where more than 30 people responded, showed strong support for a hydrotherapy pool to be constructed in the Riverland west area, according to Mr Loffler. “We have included that in our plan, which we have put on a wishlist,” he said. Mr Loffler said the community is pleased to have recently received a $56,000 portable x-ray machine for use at the Waikerie Hospital.

HOW I SEE IT

OPINION

MBDA meeting leaves little confidence in plans for region

By GRAEME PASCHKE

LAST Friday’s meeting certainly did not provide me with too much confidence in the Murray Darling Basin Association’s plans for our region. We rang and booked seats but were turned away at the door, to be moved to the next room, and it just turned into a debacle after that with no audio and no connection to the main discussion. I have no doubt it was a ‘divide and conquer’ strategy. Why would we trust them to run the river, when they can’t even organise a meeting. But it is the actual document that bothers me - 223 pages (with a further 19 volumes of the same rubbish still to come) and not one single new idea or positive piece of thinking in the whole thing. Not one new dam or storage to be built, no rivers to be diverted, no mention of saving millions of litres

of water by converting open earth channels to pipelines. We were told at a CIT meeting a couple of years ago that there are huge earth channels over the border where they only sell (and therefore account for) 10 per cent of the water that is put in them – the rest either soaks into the ground, evaporates or is stolen. And the water is not hard to steal as their only meter is an old paddle wheel from ancient Roman times that you jam a frozen carp in – the wheel stops turning, the water keeps running past and it is now free. Compare that to the Mag-flow meters that we have in the Riverland that literally measure every drop. One very important point to consider was highlighted in the Sunday Mail (October 17) on page 28, which is that the final decision on how South Australia achieves its 37 per cent cut is not determined by the MDBA but by Mr

There are rumblings afoot that they intend to abscond more water for Adelaide.

Rann and Mr Caica. There are rumblings afoot that they intend to abscond more water for Adelaide out of this deal and irrigators will end up with around 46 per cent cuts. Think of what that will do to your town. The flow on effect will mean that at least half of every packing house, processing plant and small business will go – then follows schools, hospitals, government services, footy and cricket teams etc, etc. Next to go would be your irriga-

tion trusts because there is no way they could survive pumping only half of the water. It is not a wild assumption that in five years the Riverland would be full of ghost towns. Ghost towns with very green gum trees. So let’s look at their idea for just one minute. With these nine billion dollars, they intend to purchase – not water - but water allocations. So in a drought like we have just had, there will be almost no difference to the river at all because noone had any water. This water the MDBA intends to buy would have been subject to the same cuts as, for example, when SA was on 18 per cent allocation, and Victoria was on nought per cent allocation (apart from a tree survival allocation). So they only have more water to send down the river in a good year.

Look at the situation at the moment. The catchment will be at probably about 85 per cent capacity after last weekend’s rains, the flow into South Australia is about 30,000 million litres a day and we are stuck on 67 per cent allocation and told that we will get no more this year. And that’s before this mob get their crazy plan through. My opinion is that these people are, at best, just brain dead, or, at worst, have a very sinister agenda. From my observation, the people fighting hardest for our cause are Nick Xenophon, who needs our support with everything he is doing, and talkback radio host Alan Jones, who is also hot on the case. I urge you all to go to www.2gb. com.au and click on the podcast of his show from Friday, October 15 titled Farmers and the Murray Darling to get a different perspective on this issue.

Never too late to boost your nest egg

By AMP Financial Planner VERONICA RUTHERFORD*

BABY BOOMERS could be facing a frugal retirement with new research showing most will have only $51,500 in savings to supplement their pension income at retirement age. The figures were released in the latest AMP.NATSEM Wealth and Income Report: Saving Tomorrow, which examines the saving and spending patterns of Australians over a four year period. Baby boomers have not had the benefit of compulsory superannuation for their entire working lives – it started at three per cent in the late 80s and increased to nine per cent in the early 90s. While it is important to start planning for retirement early on, the good news is that it is never too late to get your retirement planning on the right track. There are some simple

s !LL RETURN TYPES s 0ERSONAL BUSINESS PARTNERSHIP s &EE FROM REFUND SERVICE AVAILABLE

strategies baby boomers can use to boost their nest eggs.

Tips for baby boomers to boost their nest egg Do a basic retirement budget: ONE of the best places to start is for people to work out how much they will need to live on during retirement. It needs to cover all essential living expenses such as food, electricity, rates, telephone bill and insurance. Then strip out the expenses that will no longer apply, such as the mortgage repayments if the house is paid off, additional super contributions and school fees. As a guide, factor in another $10,000 a year for additional expenses such as upgrading the car every 10 years, buying a caravan or overseas travel.

s 4AX ASSISTANCE ALL YEAR ROUND s 3HARES INVESTMENTS s .EGATIVE GEARING RENTAL s #APITAL GAINS s -ULTIPLE YEAR TAX RETURNS

How much is enough? FOR people using an allocated pension, around $600,000 would be the amount needed by the age of 65 for a modest lifestyle. At a seven per cent growth rate, this would deliver an income stream of around $42,000 per annum, without necessarily eroding the capital, so as to hedge inflation over the long term and provide additional capital later in life.

Work out how much super they will have: PEOPLE should project forward their current super balance and contributions to work out how much they will have when they reach age 65. There are many online super calculators, including one at http:// www.amp.com.au/calculators, that people can use to do this. Make sure any assets that will contribute to retirement needs

such as shares, managed funds, insurance bonds or investment properties are included in this calculation. Consider the retirement trimester: PEOPLE are living a lot longer now and there are three distinct phases of retirement. Age 65 to 75 can be the most expensive phase, with many wanting to travel and pursue hobbies. Age 75 to 85 is the often referred to as the ‘contentment period’ where retirees are often satisfied staying at home, without spending much money. Age 85 to 95 can get expensive again, due to the costs of aged care such as accommodation entry fees and contributions, daily care fees, medical expenses and nursing home fees. Get financial advice A FINANCIAL planner can work out a plan to help achieve the income needed for a comfortable retirement.

â– OPTION: Baby boomers should not discount the opportunity available to build on their nest egg for retirement.

The Ray White Team participated in the 2010 Relay for life on the 9th October and we raised $6724.50 to help support Cancer research. We thank you, the vendors and purchasers for helping us raise these FUNDS AS EACH LISTING AND SALE MADE BETWEEN .OVEMBER AND /CTOBER allowed us to donate a portion of the commission to Relay for Life. It is certainly an eye opening experience that everyone should do at least once during their life. The signiďŹ cance of the whole event really comes to light when night falls and it is cold and you have to stay awake and KEEP WALKING %VEN WITH TAKING TURNS YOU STILL DON T ACTUALLY GET TO SHUT those eyes tight and get a good kip, because your turn comes around pretty quick. You’d like to just go home and hop into bed. A cancer patient probably feels like this with their illness, but they simply don’t have the option to pop it in a drawer for a while and take a break, they bear the brunt for months on end‌. The relay would not even go close to their burden so it was a very small price to pay to help a very worthy cause.

■ DIET: Turtles and similar creatures enjoy a diverse diet. Photos: SUPPLIED

OFFER a complete commercial diet made specifically for turtles and terrapins. Check with experts for exact dietary requirements and amounts for your species. Supplement the diet with appropriate snacks: Earthworms, crustaceans, small fish, mouse pups, algae, leafy green vegetation and fruit are examples of suitable foods for terrapins.

Semi-aquatic species tend to be herbivorous - they tend to eat plants only. Feed your pet two to three times a week in a small holding tank that is separate from its normal enclosure; uneaten food can attract disease, causing micro-organisms. Rinse off your turtle after a feed with slightly warm water before returning him to his enclosure.

STEP 2 K Keep the temperature at 25 and 35 degrees celsius for aquatic and semiaquatic species. Use an aquarium heater when needed; turtles and terrapins become sluggish and stop eating lo temperatures. in low

3

STEP 3 K Keep the water clean to prevent health

problems. Use an aquarium filtration system to maintain optimal water quality.

4

STEP 4 P Prevent your turtle’s i environment from becoming soiled by either netting or siphoning off all fecal matter as soon as possible. Fecal build up can cause health problems.

5

STEP 5 Clean the entire aquarium (including the filtration system) at least once a month. Clean ponds or large enclosures where the animal spends time at least every three to six months.

MAINTAINING YOUR TURTLE PROPER temperature, water quality and feeding are important aspects of maintaining the health of semiaquatic turtles and aquatic turtles (which are called terrapins). Since this is not an animal that requires a lot of exercise and constant attention, it is a good pet

for those who live busy lives but still want something living in their house when they come home from work. Find a veterinarian who specialises in reptiles, amphibians and other exotic pets to provide care for your turtle.

■ HOUSE: The correct housing for turtles is the first key step.

■ RANGE: To celebrate its 50th anniversary, Ford hold released four limited edition XR models including sedan (top) and ute (bottom) and two G series models (right).

Ford marks anniversary with exciting Falcon range THE 50th anniversary Falcon range includes two G Series models and four XR models, including sedan and ute variants. Each model in the limited edition range features special graphics and exterior design elements, along with unique interior finishes and additional equipment. The XR anniversary lineup will feature sedan and ute versions of both the XR6 and XR6 Turbo. With special XR50 badging, the XR6 and XR6 Turbo anniversary models will feature ‘medium stealth’ colour accents to the front grilles, fog lamp bezels, rear bumper insert and 18-inch alloy wheels.

G6-spec tail lights will also feature on the XR models. The XR50 logo will also appear in special body stripes, along with a 50th Anniversary fender feature. Inside, an embroidered XR50 logo appears on the seats and carpet mats. The instrument clusters will also feature a special 50th Anniversary graphic. A unique trim has been applied to the centre console, instrument panel and front door spears. There is also standard dual-zone climate-control and a ‘high series’ sports leather steering wheel. There is a new partial-

leather seat trim. The G Series anniversary models gain similar treatments, with ‘light stealth’ accents to the front grilles, fog lamp bezels and 19-inch alloy wheels. New leather seat trim with embroidered 50th Anniversary logos feature inside, with the same logos appearing on the carpet mats and door scuff plates. Unique trim has been applied to the centre console, instrument panel and front door spears. Similar 50th Anniversary badging features on the exterior, along with a special fender feature. Satellite navigation with

Suna Traffic Channel has also been fitted as standard equipment. “The total value equation is different for each 50th Anniversary model but it ranges from just over $9500 to more than $12,000 of added value at no extra cost,” marketing, sales and service vice president Beth Donovan said. “Indeed, the recommended offer price on these special edition models is actually lower than the manufacturer’s list price of the core vehicle on which they are each based, so we’re offering customers a compelling proposition and unique opportunity to really share in the 50th birthday celebrations for Falcon.”

Tavern Talk

Through Rome, Florence and the canals of Venice By DANNY HANRAHAN SINCE my previous column we have travelled through Italy, spending a few days each in Rome, Florence, Milan and Venice. From Venice we cruised the Adriatic Sea and around the Greek Islands. We are now in Hong Kong for a few days prior to returning home. We queued to see Michelangelo’s David in Florence and wandered through its narrow alleys of the Old City, climbed the Leaning Tower of Pisa and devoured untold pizzas. I will be eternally grateful to all the Italian motorists for knowing when an Australian tourist will look the wrong way and then step out in front of them. After taking in the culture and art of the Renaissance that is Florence, we moved on to Milan. Milan is a city of apartment blocks and bustling crowds. Sitting on our hotel balcony in Milan in the early evening, I was amazed by the number of families with dogs in tow that visited the park opposite our hotel. The kids rode their bikes and the dogs went wild, leaving dangerous deposits throughout the park. Within an hour darkness fell and the park was vacant. Unbeknown to us, we arrived in Milan during Fashion Week and found ourselves surrounded by the beautiful people. For those that know me, I am probably not aligned with Italian and current world fashion. Unprepared for the circus and

Venice is everything you read You guessed it, no Havaianas. Anyway ‘fellas’, my fashion tip

Apparently during October and November this is a common occurrence, resulting in thousands of tourists attempting to find a dry path home. The locals, of course, don gum boots and strolled around with bemused grins on their faces as the tourists, like us, eventually gave up and walked through water that at times reached our knees. We have been in cities basically since we left and the only time I have seen the sky full of stars is when we are flying during the night. The words of Banjo Patterson’s Clancy of the Overflow often come to mind: ‘And the bush hath friends to meet him and their kindly voices greet him, In the murmur of the breezes and the river on its bars, And he sees the vision splendid of the sunlit plains extended, And at night the wond’rous glory of the everlasting stars. When all great things begin to reach their end, thoughts start to concern the future. In my case there is the Mickey Thompson Riverland 4x4 Challenge starting tomorrow and finishing on Sunday. I may be missing home but the good old state of South Australia and the Riverland will certainly give me my fix of 4WDing when I arrive back. Camped under the gum trees on the banks of the mighty River Murray, I intend to gaze quietly at the stars and think of those poor city kids in Milan on their weekly visit to the park.

Big River Nationals back in 2012

IT WAS refreshing to, at last, hear some positive news for the Riverland last week with the announcement that the development application to build a motorsport and driver training facility has been approved by the Riverland Regional Development Assessment Panel. Although the construction, building and eventual use of this facility may be some 12 months away, I can now reveal further good news for the region with the recent approval of the Australian Street Rod Federation to hold another Big River Regional Street Rod Nationals in 2012. The inaugural Big River Nationals was held in April 2006, hosted by the locally based Riverside Rodders Club and organised and promoted by an enthusiastic committee of South Australian Hot Rodders. The event was an outstanding success, returning a huge positive financial return to the Riverland economy and saw it nominated for a Riverland and two South Australian Tourism Awards, as well as an SA Great Award. A comprehensive marketing and advertising campaign through the major enthusiast magazines and local media prior to the Big River Nationals in 2006 contributed to the success. Over 400 entries came from all states of Australia. Thirty one trade and sponsors stands and 14 variety stalls participated, 15 catering vendors provided food and drink and over 6000 spectators attended. A number of local sporting

clude those who attend specifically for a drag meeting, the end result being our region may be left a little short for available accommodation. Again the types of vehicles eligible for entry will be Australian Street Rod Federation class vehicles (hot rods, customs and classics), as well as Australian and American classic and performance cars and street machines up to 1972 and special interest vehicles at the discretion of the committee. This was a very successful formula in 2006 and, considering the regional aspect of the event, it was recommended we maintain the same mix of vehicles. The majority of the initial committee is back on board and looking forward to working with the Riverland Motorsport Club and the people of the Riverland during the planning process. Most of the program will be as in 2006, however improvements at the venue over the past few years and those planned between now and 2012 will enhance many aspects of our event. These upgrades will make it even bigger and more successful.

■ BACK AGAIN: The Big River Nationals were a massive success when held in the Riverland in 2006. Photos: GRAHAM MATTHEWS groups, schools and charitable organisations also benefitted financially through their involvement with catering. The organising committee began the planning process for the 2012 event some months ago and has just completed negotiations with the Field Days committee regarding the use of the Riverland Exhibition Centre as it was in 2006.

Our experience from the previous event exposed a couple of issues to be addressed before the next one and the Berri Barmera Council has been very co-operative during discussions to solve these. It is expected that all three local Riverland councils will contribute equally toward the promotion and funding of the 2012 event to share the success with the whole region. Whilst the new facility is not

crucial to a successful Big River Nationals, as shown in 2006, we also know that entries were down by approximately a third that year simply because the drag strip didn’t happen. We are therefore planning positively (that the drag strip will be up and running) and see no reason why the number of entries shouldn’t double to 800 plus. These, of course, will not in-

AND ANOTHER THING...

Local business continues solid run FRESH on the heels of its recent success at the Building Designer Awards, Riverland business Hand Built has gained major recognition at the Australian Shop and Office Fitting Industry Association Awards. The awards were presented in Queenstown, New Zealand, at ASIOFA’s annual conference. The Loxton business was a finalist in two categories: for fitouts between $15,000 and $300,000 (GPA Accounting, Berri) and $300,000 to $500,000 (Vitality Health Club, Renmark). The Vitality Health Club project was awarded SA Interior Fitout of the Year. Hand Built design manager Jamie Knowling said the recognition is a great honour and national acknowledgement of the company’s design ability, construction capabilities and attention to detail.

Nominations open THE Renmark Paringa Council has opened nominations for its annual Australia Day Awards. Residents of the district are encouraged to put forward nominations for people and events that have made significant contributions to the community. Nominations are open for Citizen of the Year, Young Citizen of

There’s

the Year and Community Event of the Year. The awards will be presented at the Renmark Paringa Council Australia Day Celebrations to be held on Wednesday, January 26, at the Jarrett Memorial Gardens. Nomination forms can be obtained from the council office, public library or visitor information centre, or download from the council’s website www.renmarkparinga. sa.gov.au or by phoning 8580 3000. Nominations close on Monday, November 22.

Calendar competition I DON’T consider myself to be much of an artist but there are plenty of young people who do and might like to submit their work to the SA Murray Darling Basin Natural Resources Management Board for its calendar artwork competition. The 2011 calendar will feature artwork with a focus on the River Murray and water. The artworks can be drawings, paintings, collages or photographic – anything you like, so long as it is either A4 or A3 landscape, bright and colourful with legible text. Entries close at 5pm on Friday, November 12, and all entries must be accompanied by an entry form attached to the back of the artwork.

■ ROYALTY: The Riverland Special School had a brush with royalty recently when the Christmas Pageant Royal Family visited the region. Making the regal visit with students were Queen Katelyn, King Luke, Princess Kylie and Prince Mark.

Entries will be accepted by post to Cindy Kakoschke, SA MDB NRM Board, PO Box1374, Berri SA 5343 or bring them to 2 Wade Street, Berri. For more information, call Cindy on 8582 4477.

Nippy’s up for award NIPPY’S fruit juices is a fine Riverland product and the family business’ contribution to excellence has been recognised by a South Australian Premier’s Food Industry Awards nomination. Congratulations to the gang at Nippy’s for the nomination in the Adelaide Showground Fostering Value Chain Award.

Lions’ sport support THE Renmark Lions Club has continued its fine record of supporting the community, recently purchasing two canvas bags to carry cricket equipment. Club president Harry ter Bogt said “our club is pleased to be able to assist junior sport in our community”. “We hope these bags will make life easier for our junior cricketers by keeping all their equipment together.”

■ PRESENTATION: (from left) Michelle Dalby (5RM), Karen Simpson (Mission Australia), Sally Quirke (winner), Donna Langford (OPSM) and Vicki Beech (Mission Australia) at the Employee of the Month presentation.

Sally sets service sights high OPSM staff member Sally Quirke sets her sights high when she is dealing with her clients, so it is no wonder she was named September’s 5RM, Mission Australia Employee of the Month.

As an optometrist, Sally has been praised for the time she spends with her customers. She was nominated by happy customer Karen Miller.

World class racers to arrive

■ From Page 48

In the six litre open final, New South Wales took out the top two placings with Ryan Hall (Solace) and Chris Pugsley (Oxygen Thief) claiming first and second respectively. Queenslander Craig Lewis, in his boat Image, took out third, while South Australian Jeff Stunnell (In Excess), racing with Mr Jeffrey’s motor, claimed fourth. Mr Jeffrey is also working on getting his BAD boat Bondage up and running

for this weekend. He said there should be about eight BAD boats racing, seven six litre competitors, up to five litre racers, six 25-550s and a handful of junior racers out in the water at Martin’s Bend. Scrutineering is on Saturday afternoon from about 11am and 3pm, while the main event is on Sunday, with gates opening from 9.30am, with racing to get under way by 10.30 at the latest. The event is fully catered by the club. Entry is $10 per adult, while children under 16 get in free.

ENVIRONMENTAL FEATURE

By ROB McLEAN ■ RELEASE: Endangered native fish were released into a Riverland lagoon recently.

Fish species recovery effort begins

Environment & Heritage

MATTERS

A POPULATION of critically endangered native fish has been released into a Riverland lagoon to help ensure the future survival of the species. Minister for Environment and Conservation Paul Caica said up to 200 Murray hardyhead have been released into the Causeway Lagoon in the Riverland to help save the

species from extinction. “The Murray hardyhead is at risk of extinction due to decreases in water level and habitat quality in recent times,” he said. “To prevent further loss of the species, we have released up to 200 Murray hardyhead into the Causeway Lagoon in a bid to establish a self-sustaining, wild population within the Riverland.” The critically endangered Murray hardyhead is a small-bodied native fish that grows to about 76 millimetres in length and lives in semi-saline wetlands, backwaters and billabongs. Previously when floodwater receded, the Murray hardyhead lived in the more saline backwaters of the River Murray. However, due to a lack of flows in recent times the fish has had nowhere to go and the

population has been decimated as a result. Mr Caica said the 200 Murray hardyhead were part of a captive breeding program managed by the Department of Environment and Natural Resources and the Murray Darling Freshwater Research Centre in Mildura. “The release of the fish follows a recent finding of a new population of Murray hardyhead in the Riverland,” he said. “The recent finding, as well as this week’s release of a new population, means we now have four populations of Murray hardyhead in the Riverland and six across the state. “This discovery of the new population is of special significance because due to recent drought conditions, it is the only population in the state that has permanent connectivity with the River Murray channel.”

AN ALL star line-up is gearing up for this weekend’s Lions versus Christians celebrity football match at Waikerie. Suiting up for the Christians will be Norwood legend Michael Aish and his brother Andrew, while Riverland Weekly journalist and Berri premiership player Les Pearson has also been added to the list of players involved. The match is part of the Day at the Colosseum event being organised at the Waikerie football oval, which will include an optional morning open air mass at 11am. A range of children’s activities will be held from 12.30pm, leading into the football match, featuring Adelaide and regional foot-

SA football legend Neil Kerley will be coaching the Lions, while Sturt premiership star, Central District coach and lay preacher Daryl Hicks will head the Christians. Appropriately, former Woodville star Lindsay Heaven will be Hicks’ assistant. Other confirmed players include Tim Davis (Central District), Jason Sutherland (Berri/Central District), Mark Mickan (West Adelaide, Brisbane, Adelaide and current Glenelg coach), Ben Nelson (Sturt, Carlton, Adelaide), West Adelaide players Aaron Fielke, Wade Champion and Ben Fisher, Glenelg and Sturt player John Hinge and local stars Brad Williams, Shane Healy, Troy Lehmann, Craig Griffiths and David Hankin.

Bates, who has been a standout player in the under 18 competition for the Roos this year, is one of only three South Australians to play for the Boomerangs, who are coached by Michael O’Loughlin (a premiership player with Bates’ favourite team, Sydney), Chris Johnson (Fitzroy and Brisbane) and Andrew McLeod (Adelaide). Bates, who has also played in an Independent Colts premiership with Moorook-

Kingston, was selected to play for the Boomerangs via the Riverland’s SANFL affiliate club West Adelaide and he has been awarded a scholarship at the club for next season. “I’m moving down to Adelaide at the end of this year and I’ll hopefully get to go to Sacred Heart College,” Bates said. This season saw Bates finish with a flourish, being named best on ground for Barmera-Monash in his club’s convincing under 18 premiership win over Berri.

He was full of praise for his current club, Barmera-Monash and wished to thank his family for all the support. “I think I had a good season,” he said. “I was playing for a good football club, who give me good support. “Thanks to my family, they’re very exicted and happy for me.” Bates will travel to Sydney on December 9, and will jet off to Tonga for the week-long South Pacific Championships the next day.

CHARLIE’S SPORTS GOSS WITH GRAHAM CHARLTON

The T Riverland’s most authoritative sports commentator ...

Huge stack at world champs ■ ORGANISERS have managed to put together a lineup of some of Australia’s leading powerboats, plus New Zealand’s Dancing Bear, for this weekend’s meeting at Berri’s Martin’s Bend, despite a number of potential starters being ruled out by mechanical problems suffered in the UIM World Blown Alcohol Boat championships at Gol Gol, NSW, last Sunday. About half of the field had breakdowns in that event, including new world titleholder Troy Marland

from Windsor, NSW, who lost his second and last engine as he reached the finish line in the championship race. The race at Gol Gol was marred by very serious accident involving USA entrant Tony Scarlata. The American’s boat capsized with the driver trapped inside his sinking craft for several minutes before he could be dragged clear by rescue crews and revived. He was airlifted to Melbourne and at last reports was in an induced coma.

Big round of bowls upsets

■ I SPOKE to well known local bowls identity Robert ‘Dixie’ Lee on last Saturday morning’s 5RM Sports program and in looking at the men’s division one games for that afternoon, he considered “there could be an upset, even two” in the results. Well, it could be argued that he was wrong, that there were in fact three surprise results out of the three games played. Firstly, few people expected that at Waikerie the home side, 2009-10’s big improvers, would be defeated so convincingly 61-93, by Loxton.

The other two outcomes were a terrific injection of interest into the competition. Barmera at the Lakeside defeated one of the division’s heavyweights Renmark 84-81, with Dennis Wutke’s rink defeating Sean Leesue 2811 and Phil Ashton knocking off Steve Ivanovic 23-21. And a new look Renmark RSL, after going down by 40 shots to Renmark seven days earlier, won three rinks to draw with super heavyweights and reigning champions Berri, 80 each. The RSL boys should have their

scorecards up on their clubroom walls this week, Ray Sutton defeating Andy Gapco 18-16, John Van der Wyst too good for Andrew Hill 25-21 and Malcolm Inglis accounting for Craig Treloar 24-13. Only Dennis Treloar’s four, with a hollow 17 shot win, saved the Berri bacon. It makes for an absorbing round this Saturday, a rare meeting as previous week’s losers between Renmark and Berri, Barmera to host winless Waikerie and Renmark RSL to travel to Loxton to meet the only team with two clear wins in the

competition after only two rounds. This trend is also showing up in the second division, with three of the top four teams from last season, Renmark, Monash and Moorook, already registering losses. This Sunday a pleasing 30 bowlers from the Berri, Loxton, Waikerie, Monash, Moorook, Freeling and Lyndoch clubs will line up at Waikerie for sectional play for our zone in the State Open Singles Championship. Berri’s 2009-10 SA men’s singles champion Craig Treloar is amongst the entries and will be up against

The benefits of digital TV and how to get ready What are the benefits of switching to digital TV? Digital TV will provide most people with a much better picture and improved sound. It will also enable more channels to be provided. By switching to digital, Australia will be keeping pace with the rest of the world, and will continue to have access to the latest programs and technology. Switching off analog TV signals will also free up broadcast space that could be used for other services for the community.

air networks. The ABC and SBS both provide HD services in the Spencer Gulf region. For example, the ABC News 24 channel is broadcast only in HD so you will need an HD set top box or HD digital TV to watch it. The Government has introduced a labelling scheme to help consumers identify equipment that is SD or HD. Look for the yellow or purple labels which will indicate whether the equipment is digital ready for either SD or HD. Set top boxes start from around $40.

What are the options for switching to digital TV? You can connect a set top box or digital TV recorder to your existing analog television. You can also upgrade to a television with an integrated digital tuner. If you already have a set top box, digital TV recorder or a digital TV, you should be receiving digital signals and will not have to do anything. If you have or are planning to get subscription TV, contact a subscription TV provider to check your options to be digital ready.

How can I find out more about the equipment I need? Retailers participating in the Australian Government Retail Advisor Scheme will have Digital Advisors who can provide you with more information. Digital Advisors have completed an assessment program and will wear a badge displaying the Government’s ‘Get Ready for Digital TV’ logo. Digital Advisors can provide you with information about the Australian Government Digital Switchover Labelling Scheme and when switchover will happen in your local area, as well as the full range of options to get digital ready. You can find your local Digital Advisor by calling 1800 20 10 13 or checking at www.digitalready.gov.au

Is there a difference between set top boxes? A SD set top box will only let you see the free-to-air digital channels broadcast in SD, while an HD box will also let you see both the SD and the HD channels provided by the free-to-

■ OH, IF only Jamie Clutterham had been around back in the days when I made a few attempts to get into the game of golf. I may have made a better fist of it… One of my tutors was an uncle from WA who openly boasted only two shots, ‘windies’ (complete misses) and ‘fluffies’ (almost complete misses). It left me with form that I hardly wanted to display amongst any golf efficient mates or at competitions, no matter how social they were. Jamie at the Renmark Pro Shop is certainly making it easier for anyone junior to senior, male or female to have a go at golf without the pressures many others like me have experienced over the years. Firstly, junior girls have a path to the general junior program. Girls only clinics, at $5 a time, are to be conducted on Tuesdays from 4.30 to 5.30pm, starting on November 2 and running until the end of March. All will be encouraged to join the general program when they feel comfortable to do so. There will also be one ladies and one mixed class each month, again from October to March between 5.30 and 6.30 on a Tuesday. Adults will pay $15 and juniors $5. Meanwhile, the open junior program continues at a $5 fee on Fridays from 4.30 to 5.30. The sessions include coaching clinics and course play. Equipment can be provided for all programs. I suggest anyone seeking further details should call Jamie on 8595 1514.

Waikerie’s Mid Murray recruit Wayne Collins and Gary Pursche and Loxton’s Neville Jenke in his section. Meanwhile, young Loxton bowlers Candise and Tamzin Jenke will play for Country against Metro in an annual under 18 junior match in Adelaide this weekend for the third year in a row. Playing for Metro will be Emma Hughes, who teamed up with the two Loxton girls in winning a triples gold medal earlier this year. Candise will skipper Country in pairs and fours.

Grader failure on KOM racecourse ■ A LOT of people continue to use the historic Kingston-on-Murray race course, not only as a walking trail but also to enjoy the magnificent native vegetation on the property. Normally any track maintenance has simply involved slashing but recently someone has apparently employed a grader on the circuit with less than satisfactory results. Without any local knowledge, the machinery operator has generally left a rough surface but in particular, got into real strife on the ‘Winery Corner’ which is often quite damp and after recent rain, has been even more so. They obviously got bogged and in their efforts to escape, destroyed a fair amount of the boundary wire. My first thoughts were that some people had taken my 2010 April Fools article on development at the site seriously and started work. Then my mind flashed back to ‘Barmera’ – that big red horse that absconded out of a one horse race at the track over 50 years ago and took refuge in adjacent scrub. Often in this column I have mentioned signs from time to time of Barmera’s spirit perhaps returning to the scene for a gallop. Perhaps he came back, saw the damage and somewhat dangerous condition of the track and kicked the putty out of the fence in anger? Of course my theory on the situation is ridiculous but it seems as good as anything else on offer. No one seems to know ‘who dun it’.

Changes to awards

■ RETURNING: The annual Berri 90 kilometre Ski Race will be held again next weekend.

90km ski race back in town ■ AFTER powerboats strut their stuff at Berri this weekend, the action continues the following Saturday and Sunday when the Berri Resort Hotel’s 90 kilometre Ski Race comes to town. This is the former 110 kilometre event held at Murray Bridge but transferred to Berri in 2009. The course this year has been reduced to 90 km in the interest of safety and to enhance public viewing in front of the Berri township. A highlight of Saturday’s so-

cial events line-up will be the Dash for Cash from Pike River to the Berri Hotel, with boats expected to exceed 200 kph. The event determines starting positions for Sunday’s expert events program. Classes involved over the two days extend from 60 kph to unlimited super class with 120 boats and 350 skiers expected. Of local interest will be the appearance of crack Berri team Hit it, which has advanced to

the eight litre open class and will clash with fellow South Australian Morphett Vale’s Graham Johns, with Cannon. Les Obst, from Murray Bridge, Ski Racing SA president, will return towing his daughter Shelley, along with Mypolonga’s Craig Mills with Clark Stegmeyer behind Rhino. The event will have boats and their skiers passing in front of the Berri township and under the bridge offering excellent viewing for spectators.

■ THERE have been a few changes to the format of the annual Waikerie Sportsperson of the Year awards, with a concentration on recognising those who volunteer their time and those that may not be the best of the best but dedicate themselves in time and effort to their chosen sport. The Waikerie Achievement and Recognition for Excellence Awards in Sport night will be held at the Waikerie Club on Friday, November 5. Guest speakers will be former cycling world champion, Olympic and Commonwealth Games medallist, Steve McGlede and former SANFL/AFL umpire Richard Fox. Admission to the night ($25 adults, $15 children), includes a two course meal and entertainment. Award categories include The Golden Gift of Excellence for Contribution to Sport, Long Service of Commitment, Volunteer and Junior Volunteer, Sportsman and Sportswoman, Junior Boy and Girl Rising Star, Team of the Year, Most Dedicated Athlete and Funniest Event.

Academy tryouts ■ TRYOUTS will be held this Sunday for Riverland girls looking to attend trials in Karoonda in February for selection in Murray Region Academy netball squads. Sunday’s tryouts will be held at the Berri netball courts with under 13s at 9.30am and under 15s at 11 and under 17s at 12.30pm. For further information, contact Wendy Gambling on 8582 1094.

The case for Brad Hodge ■ ONE of the commentators in last Saturday night’s Victoria versus Queensland 45 over cricket match on TV, considered that if you had a choice between India’s little master Sachin Tendulkar and Bushranger Brad Hodge for your team, you would take the Victorian. And he would be right, surely. Has anyone been in such freakish batting form over a longer period of time than Hodge in this particular version of the game? It has raised the obvious question again. Why hasn’t the dashing right hander played more matches for Australia at all levels? Hodge, who will turn 36 on December 29, scored 140 not out from 121 deliveries out of his side’s winning total of 240 on Saturday night, following his 134 against WA in the first game of the season. At Test level he donned his first Baggy Green against West Indies in November 2005, scored 203 against South Africa in Perth in December and then was dropped three tests later only to return for one more game against the West Indies as a replacement for an injured Andrew Symonds in 2008. He averaged over 55 in his six test career. His ODI career has been an in and out situation but he has played 25 games. Of course, through his long career he has scored a mountain of runs for his state and several teams overseas.

■ CASE: Brad Hodge’s domestic form has been extremely consisten for a number of seasons, warranting the question of why he is not in the national team.

Obviously Hodge is not the only prolific run scorer that has not appeared to get his just rewards at top level in this country? Some that come quickly to mind from way back are Ken Meuleman (Victoria and WA), Sam Trimble (Queensland) and South Australia’s own Ian McLachlan. Trimble played from 1959 to 1976, scored over 10,000 runs at an average of 42 and made only one test team as 12th man against the West Indies in 1964-65. Trimble, an opening bat, had ace duo Bill Lawry and Bob Simpson to contend with as far as playing for his country was concerned. In more modern times another Victorian, Dean Jones, was dropped from the Test side for 1992-93 after topping the averages against Sri Lanka the previous series. He made the same hasty exit from the one day team

in 1993-94 after being a champion of that game. Overall, he played 52 tests, averaging 47 and 164 ODIs at 45 but on form it should have been more. Another big scoring Queenslander, Stuart Law, scored only one Test as a replacement for an injured Steve Waugh (and made 54 not out), and played 54 ODIs for an average of 27. Then there is Victorian, more famously South Aussie, Jamie Siddons, who made 10,643 runs but played only one ODI when he scored 32. And, of course, readers will come up with many more – batters and bowlers. Why? It is a mystery. So many players have had their careers go this way.

Powerboats charging up By LES PEARSON MOTORSPORT fans will have the opportunity to see some of the fastest powerboats in the world this weekend when the Riverland Powerboat Club hosts some of the racers from last weekend’s world championships. To be held at the club’s headquarters at Martin’s Bend, powerboat club president Brian Jeffrey said the event was another chance for international competitors to give their boats a run before heading home. The club helped run the world championships at Gol Gol, New South Wales, last weekend. “The racing all weekend was very good,” Mr Jeffrey said. New South Wales’ Troy Marland, in his boat Madness, took out the Blown Alcohol Displacement (BAD) championship, followed by South Aussies Tim May (The Boss) and Dean Borg (Pro Formance). Mr Jeffrey said Marland’s boat has been clocked at 159 miles per hour and with an output of between 1800 and 2000 horsepower, it is easily one of the fastest BAD boats in the world.
