THE Riverland is preparing for River Murray levels to rise more than a metre and a half in some areas and predicted flows of 90,000 megalitres a day are expected by the end of January. The flow is the most significant in over a decade but SA Water figures end speculation that a peak reminiscent of the 1974 flood is on its way. While the environment is benefiting from floodwater, holiday parks and water vessel owners are taking measures to cope with rising

levels, which are quickly climbing up banks. Waikerie Caravan Park and River Murray Queen owner Ian Edwards said the famous paddlesteamer may be forced to close temporarily if water levels continue to rise.

“We put extensions on to the tie up pillars, we’ve put them up a metre, we’re now putting another two metre extension on,” he said. “We are predicting, in a worst case scenario, we could have another metre and a half of height coming down. “If it reaches that stage, we’ll probably have to close the boat.

A sad Christmas perspective

■ YUMMY: Waikerie grower Justin Loffler enjoys a taste of his delicious cherries. Photo: BRAD PERRY By BRAD PERRY RIVERLAND growers have survived challenging weather conditions this season to produce an almost perfect flavoured cherry this Christmas. With the late start to the season, there will be plenty of the red fruit available during the festive period and Waikerie cherry grower Justin Loffler is proud to serve his cherries locally. “They’ve had a good ripening season, so they’ve got all the sugars and everything you need in them,” he said. “Because the weather has been mild, we haven’t had any issues with sunburn or anything like that. “I’ve got mine available in the local Foodland supermarket here and often, by this time of year, my cherries are finished but because it was a bit of a late start to the season, it looks like there will be plenty of cherries available at Christmas time, which is a bonus because everyone loves to see a few cherries on the Christmas table. “There is a lot of interest from people who know they are local cherries, they always come and look for them every year.” Mr Loffler, who has up to 500 cherry trees at his Waikerie property, said early winter chill and excellent flowering and fruit set mean cherries taste almost as good as they can get. With rain affecting crops elsewhere in the nation, Mr Loffler said where quality cherries are being produced, the returns are solid.

PERSPECTIVE is wonderful. When reflecting upon our experiences it gives us a reminder of the important things in life. It can shine a light on a new direction and provide impetus for change to benefit ourselves and those around us. Of course, the festive season is traditionally time to look back on the past. Not to get too political but the recent Christmas Island tragedy, notwithstanding the rights and wrongs of government policy, highlighted that we, as a nation, still have a long way to go in regards to compassion for those worse off than us. As a nation we had compassion for those who died in the New Zealand mine tragedy, but little for those who perished in the waters off Christmas Island. We need to gain perspective in the refugee debate - there are only measures of right and wrong but no definitive answers. One thing is true though, we will not stop people coming here for a better life. Politicising the death of those unfortunate souls does nothing for the refugee debate in this country and is a poor reflection on our levels of compassion. It is sad this perspective must come so close to Christmas.

Vietnamese priests’ Riverland Christmas

■ PRAYERS: (From left) Studying priests from Vietnam, Dong Tran and Long Nguyen with Father Steve Ardill at Our Lady of the River church preparing to share their faith this Christmas. Photo: JANE WILSON

By BRAD PERRY THIS Christmas, two future priests from Vietnam will be sharing their faith with locals as hundreds of people flock to services at churches across the Riverland. Dong Tran and Long Nguyen are spending their first Christmas in the region as part of pastoral experience training for the Corpus Christi College regional seminary in Melbourne. Our Lady of the River parish priest Father Steve Ardill said it is important to bring international priests to the region with the current shortage and ageing of the clergy. “I just think it’s important in terms of encouraging priestly vocations within our diocese (and to) actually present the younger face of the church and the future face of the church in Australia,” he said. “I think it’s not only great for people like Dong and Long to come here but I think it’s really encouraging and a really positive experience for our parishioners to meet them and interact with them. “I think we are really looking forward to them sharing an Aussie Riverland Christmas with us.” Since arriving in the region, Dong and Long have shared their stories at church services leading up to Christmas and interacted

Merry Christmas and a

Happy New Year with the local community. “It’s providing them the opportunity to meet and interact with our people and certainly the people in the Riverland have really warmly welcomed them and appreciated their stories and humour,” Father Steve said. “There have been opportunities to visit the nursing homes and hospitals and to take holy communion to some of the sick.” Twenty nine year old Dong, who came to Australia three years ago to study to be-

come a priest, said he has embraced the Australian culture. “The first thing I will take (home) is the language and the second thing is the culture,” he said. “I would like to mention about the people, the priests in Australia are very friendly and very open.” Long said he has enjoyed the experience studying to be a priest in the region. “The Riverland, I think, is very beautiful place and life in the Riverland a little bit slower,” he said.

Family mourns mum during festive season By ROB McLEAN

FOR the children of Jodie Harrison, this Christmas will not be a merry one, the quintet, aged 13 to 20, are mourning their mother. Jodie died in a Berri house fire on October 28, having only moved to the region with her partner Sheridan Holland several months prior. While not from the Riverland, Shaylee (20), twins Alec and Taylor (18) and 13 year old Abbey and Brooklan, also twins, are now intrinsically linked to the region by the death of their mother in her new home. Shaylee, who had previously been Jodie’s carer (she suffered rheumatoid arthritis), said she had only heard kind words about the region. Jodie and Sheridan had moved to the region, where he had gained a job on the Lyrup ferry, having been reunited after many years of separation. They were enjoying their new life.

“She loved it (the Riverland), getting there slowly,” Shaylee especially Berri because all of told the Riverland Weekly.

tough,” Shaylee said. “We can’t really afford presents, so we’re staying home and it’s just another day for us.” Shaylee said the family is consoling itself with good memories of their mother, a lady who had a great personality. “She was quite a funny lady, she made me laugh a lot,” Shaylee said. “She could see the fun side of everything. “She was a very generous person too and kind and would do a lot for other people. “She loved kids – her children, her nieces and nephews.” For Shaylee the new year will come, she will find a job, while her brother and sisters will resume their own studies or begin working careers. However, they will only be able to visit their mum and talk to her where she is now buried – Enfield Memorial Park – and that is going to take some getting used to. Shaylee is confident the youngsters can get over it, when, she does not know.

Our top citizens By CALLUM TRIFONOFF HARD working locals have been rewarded for their contributions to the community by being announced as citizens of the year. The Waikerie Citizen of the Year went to Anthony Noll. Anthony has been a member of the Country Fire Service for over 40 years, as well as being involved in the State Emergency Services and organising several community events. The Young Citizen of the Year was awarded to Waikerie Football C l u b president Henry Crawford.

Highly-respected in the community, Henry has also been involved in organising a major wakeboarding event and is secretary of the Waikerie Branch of the Liberal Party. Down Memory Lane won the award for Waikerie’s Community Event of the Year. The event was held for the people of Waikerie to say “thank you” to the community’s senior citizens for their contributions to the town. Loxton’s Citizen of the Year award went to Shirley Gibbs. Shirley has served as president of the Wunkar Women’s Agricultural Bureau, as well as also being a life member of the organisation and is heavily involved with several Wunkar sporting clubs. The young Citizen of the Year is Pamela Perre who, while still doing year 12 studies, was an ambassador for the Loxton Mardi Gras. Raising $14,000 and winning the Charity Ambassador title, Pamela was also involved in Relay for Life. The Community Event of the Year Award went to Rock by the River which raises money to assist local people battling cancer. Meanwhile, the Renmark Paringa Council also announced its winners, with Ruth Christie named Citizen of the Year. Ruth has dedicated over 50 years of service to the community, is involved with

the Paringa and Renmark football clubs, the local children’s hospital committee and Meals on Wheels. The Young Citizen of the Year was awarded to multi-sportsman Shaun Crouch. With a background in playing and coaching, Shaun has received many sporting and community awards, including the ANZAC School Spirit Prize and the Caltex All-Rounder Award. The Community Event of the Year went to the 2010 World Record Tinny Event, an event which saw 204 tinnies in a line at one time, gaining a place in the Guinness World Records. Special Community Awards also went to Riverland Woodworkers and local woman Maureen Brauer. The Berri Barmera Council is yet to announce its award winners. All citizens of the year honours will be presented by the councils at their respective Australia Day events.

Accolades for Riverlander and first indigenous Rhodes Scholar SOLID support from the Riverland has provided the platform for Rebecca Richards to become the first indigenous Australian Rhodes Scholar. The 23 year old, whose mother Rosalie lives at Gurra, attributes much of her academic success to the support of her family but also the opportunities provided in her home region. “I really feel I have come from a strong community and whenever I’m back home, everyone asks how I am,” Rebecca said from Adelaide prior to returning to the Riverland for the Christmas break. “There’s a real community support and I think that’s influenced me to do better and work on my community service.”

The 23 year old is currently studying anthropology at the University of Adelaide and through the Rhodes Scholarship will head to England next spring to study at Oxford University. She is a former Glossop High School student. The Rhodes Scholarship, named after Cecil Rhodes (for whom Rhodesia, now Zimbabwe, was also named), is one of the most prestigious awards for post graduate study in the world. University and college fees are paid by the scholarship and Rebecca understands the historical significance of the award and the doors that it will open for her in the academic world while she studies for a Masters of Philosophy in Material Anthropology and Museum Ethnography.

“You join a group of other scholars and become a part of that history,” Rebecca said. “It means I’m able to pursue my studies and it will help with building my knowledge and influence within Aboriginal affairs.” Rebecca professes to still being shocked at her acceptance into the scholarship, as well as the historical significance of her achievement. “I’m very privileged and very, very lucky to have had the opportunities that I have had in my life,” she said. Earlier this year Rebecca undertook an internship at the world renowned Smithsonian Institute in the United States, while she is also employed as an indigenous cadet project officer at the National Museum of Australia. Rebecca is the 104th Rhodes Scholar from the University of Adelaide.

“We are just going to have to work out now what is going to be the best way to do it without incorporating a regulator, if that’s possible. “What we will do first is, once we’ve got all these reports together from these various bodies, we can sit down and then we can work out if there is funding available.” Mr Hunt said the community and members of the LBMC will still be able to have their say on any issues regarding Lake Bonney. “The committee was okay to a point,” he said.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR Grounded THIS letter was given to me by one of the volunteers at Salvos Stores. It was written to convey her personal journey, express gratitude and remind us all of what volunteering can achieve. Her name is withheld but this is her story. “I am currently a volunteer at the Salvos Store in Berri. When I first came to the Riverland region, I knew nobody. I had relocated due to extreme domestic violence. To alleviate the boredom of looking at four walls and not speaking to a single person, I would walk all over town. One day I happened to walk past the local Salvos Store, the manager was out the front and asked, ‘how I was?’ I told her I was bored and that’s why I walked a lot. She then asked if I would consider volunteering and be bored in the store. I turned up the next day and it was fantastic. Volunteering has given me the opportunity to help others, in addition to benefiting myself. Since that day I have made several friends, a lot of acquaintances and regained my life.

With the help of the Salvos Stores, I have now found a place that feels like home.” As a manager during the Christmas period, it is easy to get caught up in the retail side. We maximise floor space, sharpen our merchandising skills and sell, sell, sell. This letter has grounded Christmas for me and I am reminded that at Salvo’s Store, we really do make a difference in people’s lives. Perhaps that is the greatest gift of all. Have a safe Christmas. Helen Adamczyk, Salvos Store, Berri.

Tucker and toy run THE motorcycle fraternity throughout the Riverland was out in force during the annual Tucker and Toy Run, arranged by the Mallee Ulysses Club on Sunday, December 5. An event like this relies on support from many people within the community and a big thanks go to local councils, SA Police for traffic control, Rosenthal Motors and Chris Sinko Ford for loan of vehicles. Thanks to Caltex Renmark and Berri for the

trailer to collect donated goods on the run. Thanks also go to the Barmera Markets for a donation of $340, Barmera Rotary Club ($200) and the many people who donated on the day. Total donations to the Christmas appeal were $1945.20, plus tucker and toys. Again, a great job done by 30 local motorcyclists and the people who made sure the event was a success. Peter Norman, Ulysses Mallee Branch.

Medical bus support I WRITE in support of June Sonntag’s recent letter, regarding the medical bus. I am certain I speak for all Riverlanders and the grateful users of the bus, when I express appreciation to all who have assisted in any way to ensure this service continues. The Berri Barmera Council has been supportive of providing transport for patients attending medical appointments, held within and outside the Riverland, for some years. I am sure that any assistance by way of volun-

teer drivers and financial contributers would be most welcome. Margaret Evans, Berri.

Disgusted AS A visitor to your beautiful town of Barmera last week, from New South Wales, we took the opportunity to go to Lake Bonney for a barbecue tea and was so disgusted and appalled at the rubbish, toilet paper, used disposable nappies and food scattered and left around the barbecue area by some grots who think it’s okay to leave the lovely area like this for some kind citizen to clean up. You took all toilet rolls from the public toilets and threw them all over the seats and lawns. You would be the first to complain if you had to rush to the toilet, only to find no paper. I would hate to think what your home looks like. The way you left the lake, you wouldn’t be fit to even live in a tent. We hope next time we visit before you.

Water levels may ground Queen

■ HIGH RIVER: Waikerie’s Murray River Queen is just holding on to its mooring area with the rising levels, while (inset left) owner Ian Edwards shows where the pillar will be extended to hold the vessel and Waikerie Caravan Park’s camping site which is predicted to go under, stalling future plans. Photos: BRAD PERRY

■ From Page 1 “What we need to do is weigh up the cost of keeping it in service with the infrastructure costs of extending to hold it here versus just taking it out of the river at the peak of the high river.” Mr Edwards said he will meet with State Government departments next year to discuss current plans to move the Waikerie Caravan Park to the riverfront. “We have a plan together (as to) how we can build a caravan park that if the river rises we can take the caravan park away,” he said. “It really just means that all the park cabins have to be transportable.” Other riverfront caravan parks, including those at Paringa and Loxton, all planning measures to reduce imminent flood damage. Current flows to South Australia have increased to 65,000 megalitres per day but predicted rises of up to 90,000 megalitres a day would see the highest flows for more than 18 years.

In comparison, flow peaked in mid December 2000 at 64,000 megalitres per day, mid December 1992 flows peaked at 93,000 megalitres per day and the 1974 flood peak was 180,000 megalitres a day. The Department of Water believe there is no threat to towns and levee banks but some roads, campsites and causeways located on floodplains could, or already have, become inundated. River levels are expected to rise (as at December 17) by 1.68 metres at Overland Corner, 1.60 at Swan Reach, 1.59 at Morgan, 1.19 at Blanchetown, 0.96 at Loxton, 0.85 at Lyrup, 0.78 at Berri, 0.55 at Renmark and 0.36 at Lock Six. Houseboat business owners are already receiving calls from people who have hired vessels and are concerned there is too much water, or the flows are too strong. However, operators are measuring customers that, despite the higher river levels, as long as people navigate their boats within the main river system, there is no reason to put off their houseboat holiday.

The Riverland Weekly understands the Department of Transport also has plans in place to extend ferry cables, where possible, if the river continues to rise over the bank. With high flows, State Emergency Service deputy chief officer Matt Maywald is warning people to be vigilant when using the river recreationally. “At this time of the year, we know that many people are attracted to the recreation offered by the River Murray and its towns and the SES encourages people to enjoy the River Murray over the holiday period,” he said. “However, we do remind all river users to be vigilant about their own safety and that of others, in and around water. “Elevated water flows will dramatically increase and make the water current uncertain. “Risks are further exacerbated by submerged structures such as trees and jetties and floating debris in the water.” Riverbank collapse warnings have also been issued for homes along the river.

Market has Xmas cheer

By BRAD PERRY

THERE will be Christmas cheer and spirit at the inaugural twilight Riverland Farmers’ Market this evening. Traditionally held on Saturday mornings, the Riverland Farmers’ Market is hoping tonight’s twilight event will attract new clientele, by embracing the festive season, while also enticing the wide number of tourists and returning locals currently in the region. Market manager Linda Boucher said if tonight’s and next Thursday’s twilight markets are successful, they may hold a couple of them every year. “It’s a Christmas present to the Riverland,” she said. “It’s a good way to kick off the festive season because it’s two days before Christmas. “There will be a lot of people in town, therefore it will bring visitors and family members down. “I know it’s late trading for Berri traders, so that should help everybody as well.” From traditional gingerbread houses, trees and reindeer to many gift ideas, the Riverland Farmer’s Market will be a celebration of the

festive season. Mrs Boucher said tonight’s market is a great opportunity for people to buy local produce, such as fruit and vegetables, for Christmas lunches and dinners, as well as fish, oysters, calamari and lobster. The not-for-profit organisation, which has been operating for a number of years from the Berri Senior Citizens Hall, is set to benefit from a change in its usual morning fixture with large crowds predicted. Mrs Boucher said those people who cannot make it on Saturday mornings will have the opportunity to attend the evening market and for this reason organisers will consider hosting two twilight markets next year. “The twilight market is going to be special because of all the entertainment and the great atmosphere it will create,” Mrs Boucher said. Tonight there will be more than 25 stall holders on hand to sell their produce and wares, with entertainment from local singer Kelly Menhennett, while next Thursday’s market will see plenty of produce on offer for New Year’s celebrations.

Successful Riverland Christmas Appeal By CALLUM TRIFONOFF

THE Riverland Christmas Appeal has seen another year of success, making a difference in people’s lives. The appeal has reached hundreds of people with 550 Christmas boxes helping to make this year’s festive season a more comfortable one for those in need. “We’re 50 up on the hampers this year and we had 486 applications last year, so we have definitely improved for this year’s appeal,” Mrs Taylor said. “It picked up towards the end and we’re still getting donations in. “Every year, we just seem to find more and more success.” Mrs Taylor said the appeal is important to the Riverland as it helps many

people who are doing it tough. “We’ve got a lot of homeless people and single (parents) and we do our best to help them out,” she said.

“You never know, it could be you who needs the appeal’s help next year. “If they’re struggling,

we’re there for them, the Riverland is one big family at the end of the day.” Mrs Taylor is confident the appeal has already made a difference to families, with the support of the whole of the Riverland. “Quite a few businesses are doing it tough as well,” she said. “They’ve put their hands in their pockets and have come out with the solution.” E ve r yo n e involved with the appeal has no doubt it will continue to offer an aiding hand

for years to come. “It’s not something we can stop, I mean, it started in 1986 and I’ve been involved for the past six years,” Mrs Taylor said. The appeal is also helping people who are doing it tough on blocks with organisers sending out wish cards for them, which will be used to help them purchase food for their Christmas celebrations.

RMT helping growers diversify RIVERLAND and Mallee primary producers have recently formed a group to explore diversification options. Confronted with loss of grape contracts, lower commodity prices and the prospect of unreliable irrigation allocations, the producers are investigating alternative crops, collaborative business models and approaches to marketing up and down the supply chain. The group is supported by funding under an Existing Worker Productivity Places Program (a State Government initiative by the Department of Further Education, Employment, Science and Technology), arranged by River Murray Training in response to local needs. RMT manager Barb McPherson described the program as an opportunity for producers to share research, yet develop their own ideas through to a business and marketing plan. Activities to date have included sessions on market research and how to approach diversification and a range of guest speakers. Robyn Cain, from the Riverland Task Force, explained requirements to access development grants, Jamie Klingbiel, from KFP Organics, and Jenny Semmler, from 919 Wines, shared their journeys into diversification and Tristan Kitchener, from AXS Partners, gave a perspective of the purchasing behaviours of retailers. Ms McPherson said the group keeps meetings brief over summer, with an afternoon meeting at the Cobdogla Club on the second Thursday of each month, and a lunch online meeting with a guest

MATTERS

Camping in parks over Christmas holidays SUMMER is a great time to visit parks in the Riverland, whether you are seeking adventure, relaxation or the chance to unwind and get close to nature. We are lucky to have a number of exceptional national parks and reserves that offer great bush camping experiences in the Riverland, including the Murray River National Park (Katarapko and Lyrup Flats), Chowilla, Loch Luna and Moorook. This year, camping in the parks

offers its own unique set of challenges. With the high and flowing river, many floodplain campsites and roads are currently inaccessible, and may remain so for a period of time. However, there are plenty of areas where camping and day visits will remain open. With the high water, we get to see nature at its best in our floodplain parks and reserves. Birdlife is abundant and wide-

spread, reptiles and amphibians are taking advantage of the conditions and all aquatic species (fish and yabbies) are thriving. With many floodplain roads inaccessible, there is the opportunity to use alternative ways of getting back to nature, including walking, canoeing and boating. All park visitors need to remember there is a total fire ban in all parks and reserves over summer, meaning visitors are only permitted to use gas fires.

During state wide total fire bans, not even gas fires are allowed. It is an offence to disregard these rules and there will be no exemptions in Riverland or Mallee parks this summer. For information on which areas are accessible for camping this summer, check the Department for Environment and Natural Resources website on www.parks. sa.gov.au or call DENR Murraylands office on 8595 2111.

The Lyrup Club: Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s worth a trip across the ferry THE Lyrup Club is a friendly and enjoyable place to partake in a delicious meal. Offering a range of entertainment features, including a jukebox, pokies, KEANO, pool tables, and, for the children, free Nintendo and games area, the club is most definitely a great place to take the family for tea, or enjoy an after-work brew. Friday night is the clubâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s membersâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; night and happy half hour and acting manager Donna Adams said it draws a crowd, as does the â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Lyrup Stackâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;. The â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Lyrup Stackâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; consists of two large schnitzels with different toppings, including mushroom, bacon and cheese and Donna describes it as

Donna said one of the thrills of working at the club is the friendly and loyal customers who come in. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I think it is an overall friendly place to be at,â&#x20AC;? she said. The club is set for one of its biggest attractions with a New Yearâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Eve party taking place.

So, the next time you are thinking about where to go for dinner, why not go to the Lyrup Club because, as Donna said, it really is worth a trip across the ferry.

Ford Mondeo T

HE Ford Mondeo has recently received a major honour, taking out the Best Medium Car at the 2010 Drive Car of the Year awards. The Mondeo Zetec diesel, known for its unburstable flexibility, quietness and competitive economy, won the award for the third time, after previously winning in 2007 and 2008, and it was apparent, the car punched the hardest out of any of the other contenders. Beating off competition from 2009 winner Mazda 6, Suzukiâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Kizashi, Volkswagenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Jetta 118 TSI and Toyotaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Hybrid Camry, the Mondeo returned to the top of the

medium cars tree in some style. The Mondeo has, for a long time, been up for nomination for the award, unlike a lot of the opponents that challenged it. The judges said it made such a statement that it picked up an outstanding 10 votes from a possible 11, definitely proving, by far, it is the best medium-sized car in the country. The Mondeoâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s competence was apparent for judges, who at first believed it was not as fun to drive as the Mazda 6 and took time to be convinced. However, after further observing, the Mondeoâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s comfort, vastly superior

on-road refinement and large boot, won the plaudits over. Even the doubters had to agree that the Mondeo was just as fun to drive as the Mazda 6 and there were no safety snags for the judges to report on. It turned out to be a good day for Ford as it was nominated for four other awards, including Best City Car, falling agonisingly short. However, the company can still be content with the Mondeoâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s big win. With all but one judge voting in its favour, the Mondeoâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s feat could hardly have been done in a more superb and decisive manner.

New car for lucky listener

GLOSSOP woman Beverley Lange received an early Christmas present last week when she won the Meet Every Listener competition run by Magic931, 5RM and Sutton Ford. Beverley won a Ford Fiesta when her lucky key unlocked the doors to the vehicle. She had a one in 60 chance of winning the vehicle, which was donated by Sutton Ford, when she drew her lucky key from a barrel. Beverley entered the competition at Avenue Fine Jewellers, Renmark, and was obviously delighted with her big win. The draw was held at Renmark Golf and Country Club.

FORD Australia recently revealed the new-look Territory SUV, which is set for release next year, nitrobahn.com reports. In a press release, the company noted that the SUV will be part of an unprecedented new-model onslaught Ford has planned for 2011. When it comes to the design of the new Territory, the company has given a fresh new look and a major interior update. The new vehicle boasts a number of technology highlights, including the introduction of turbo-diesel power, details of which the company plans to reveal in 2011. “The Ford Territory set a new benchmark when it was first released and it is set to achieve this again – and more,” a company spokesman said. This SUV wears an exciting new look and will boast an extensive list of technical highlights. The Ford Australia team is taking the Territory to an all-new level of performance, refinement and quality, and customers will definitely experience these advancements when they drive it,” Ford Australia president and CEO Bob Graziano said. The American automaker noted that in the coming year, it plans to launch the stunning new Territory SUV as well as the all-new Ford Focus, which made its world premiere earlier in 2010. In addition to the new vehicles, the company plans to update the look and powertrain options of its iconic Falcon. The updates to the Falcon include the introduction of Ford’s global EcoBoost engine and ultra-efficient LPI technology. The upcoming year will also witness the entry of the highly anticipated Ford Ranger, the Australian-designed/developed tough truck, in the Australian Ford showrooms.

Craig’s Superchief has the grunt to match it with the best WHEN Craig Leuders and his wife Lyn, from Renmark, decided it was time to look for a ‘weekend car’, Craig knew it would have to be something different. During his late teens and early 20s, he and a few mates became interested in hot rods and the 50s and 60s classic American cars and in the years pre family he put some time into a 1937 Ford Ute that he’d found stashed in a shed. The body was repaired and painted midnight blue and the motor reconditioned but unfortunately, as happens on many occasions, the house mortgage and family came along and Craig chose to move it on to another lucky person. On and off over the past three years, Craig has looked at purchasing a number of 1957 Chev Coupes but never really found the right one and a few months back was talking with a fellow car enthusiast who convinced him a 57 Chev was not the right car for him. It was about this time he saw an article on a 1957 Pontiac Superchief sedan in Cruzin magazine. As he read through the article and got to the end, there it was written “For Sale, phone for information”. After a quick phone call, airfares were booked and Lyn and Craig were on a plane to Queensland. Seeing the car in the flesh, it looked even better than in the magazine and a deal was done, although it wouldn’t come to Renmark until the front and rear bumpers were rechromed and airconditioning fitted. About six weeks later, it arrived

and Craig has been tinkering with, and driving, it ever since. The previous owner purchased the car in original condition from the estate of an old bloke in Bendigo, then rebuilt a lot of it before using it regularly driving to many events around Queensland before deciding to sell it. The chassis and underside are mostly stock, although it’s been tidied up and resprayed black to make it easier to clean, while the whole body has had a complete respray. The paint and body condition were poor, so it was booked in for a recoat, the roof and side flash being painted in pearl white and the remainder of the body in an aqua colour reminiscent of the original tones. A 350ci Chev V8 has been fitted and this is backed up with a turbo 400 automatic transmission, while dual exhausts exit neatly

from under the huge rear bumper to add that longed after classic cruising sound. The interior trim was in really good condition so remains the same, although a new black carpet has been fitted, while the windows have been tinted and all the stainless body mouldings restored. The suspension was treated to a 3” lowering kit and to compliment all that stainless and the chrome front and back, a set of big 20” diameter chrome rims were fitted. These are a modern touch and don’t look out of place, although Craig tells me he intends to change the rims and tyres back to something more original in the future. Since taking delivery of the Superchief, Craig has moved the battery out of the engine bay and is in the process of removing the radiator, engine and trans to tidy

up a few things and make it just that little bit cleaner. “We really enjoyed taking it to a couple of events and meeting other car nuts before I pulled it off the road,” Craig said. “It was amazing the conversation it created because it wasn’t the usual run of the mill Ford or Chev and an older bloke even came up at the Autoexpo reminiscing about the fact that a Superchief was the first car he ever owned.” It’s obvious Craig and Lyn are happy with their new acquisition and they can’t wait to get it back on the road to enjoy more fun and cruising with other enthusiasts and the family. Craig says it’s a dream to drive and he enjoys the individuality of it. Next on his wish list is a 1955 Buick Super Coupe, another car that would really stand out in a crowd.

h C y r r e M

■ THE Valley Hot Rodders are hosting their Cruise On 2011 event in the Barossa Valley on January 14 to 16 and I would urge anyone who’s into hot rods and/or 50s and 60s cars to have a look. Saturday night in the main street of Tanunda is probably the highlight. You can see over 200 of these vehicles on display, while the general public gets into the atmosphere with the street closed to through traffic, two dance floors and rock’n roll music.

Merry Christmas, happy new year to readers ■ Christmas is here yet again and we ask just where has the year gone? It’s been an interesting one on our roads and in the community with bureaucracy and our governments instigating many new forms of reactionary legislation rather than governing with vision and commitment. Here’s hoping 2011 can be a year we all aspire to and make the world a more enjoyable and comfortable place to live. To all the Modified Scene readers and everyone else, I wish you a joyous and safe Christmas and new year with family and friends and remember, cruise carefully.

Georgette’s major nomination

Seniors enjoy Christmas lunch

BERRI girl Georgette Berry has been given a major reward for her singing talent by being nominated for the arts section of the Channel 9 Young Achiever Awards. The 2008 South Australian Country Music Festival gospel senior category winner could win $1000 and a trophy if she is named her section winner at the presentation night on March 26 at the Hilton Hotel, Adelaide. Georgette has been nominated for her contribution to music and the arts. The awards are held to reward and promote positive achievement by young South Australians in the 14 to 28 age group.

THE Ridley Lions annual senior citizens Christmas lunch was held recently at the Nildottie Hall with many of the Mid Murray region’s older community members enjoying the gathering. The raffle was popular, with almost everyone winning a prize, while the talented Grieger family band G4 performed, providing some popular tunes, along with some Christmas carols. Meanwhile, Lions Club members enjoyed their own Christmas party at the Blanchetown Hotel, recently. The club’s next gathering is an informal dinner/

Great support for McHappy Day RIVERLAND residents contributed to the Renmark McDonald’s McHappy Day campaign to the tune of $5600. Funds raised on McHappy Day contribute to the various Ronald McDonald House Charities (RMHC) programs, including much needed expansions to some existing Ronald McDonald Houses and building more Ronald McDonald Houses and Ronald McDonald Family Rooms.

Local Christmas celebrations MISSION Australia and Freemasons in the Riverland have combined to deliver 40 hampers to the less fortunate this Christmas. For the third Christmas, Mission Australia has distributed hampers to the most disadvantaged families, many of whom are unable to find work.

Mission Australia business manager Sue Bryant said the hampers were delivered in Renmark, Waikerie, Loxton, Berri and Blanchetown. “When you can see the smile on the face of participants who pick them up, it’s wonderful,” she said. “It’s extremely important...with the economic cli-

mate in the region and more needy families. “Every bit makes a difference.” Co-ordinator of Berri Freemasons Foundation Gordon Hoffmann said thousands of dollars raised from a trailer raffle at the Riverland Central Plaza went towards paying for goods in the hampers.

Educators rewarded for being environmentally conscious RIVERLAND youngsters are very environmentally conscious, so it’s no wonder some of our educators have received awards for their environmental programs. Waikerie Primary School and Loxton Preschool Centre were named the school and kindergarten of the year by the South Australian Murray Darling Basin Natural Resource Management Board late last month, while Barmera Primary School’s Glenys Matthews received

the Educator of the Year Award. The awards were presented at the Upper Murray professional development workshop held at Banrock Station. Waikerie Primary has a bush tucker garden, native plant propagation program, does community recycling and has a worm farm, while Loxton Preschool has 210,000 litre rainwater tanks which are plumbed into an irrigation system, which includes

drip irrigation. Meanwhile, Glenys is a champion for the environment and co-ordinates the successful Environmental Expos run by Barmera Primary School. She also planted trees for National Tree Day on the Lake Bonney foreshore and is a key member of the Environmental Education Working Group. Well done to all of the award winners.

Saville bounces back By BRAD PERRY

■ FINALLY: Loxton’s cricketers celebrate after winning their first title in 10 years.

Loxton ends title drought

By ROB McLEAN

LOXTON has claimed its first cricket title since winning the 1999/2000 season premiership, defeating Renmark by 87 runs in Saturday’s limited overs grand final. Batting first on a troublesome wicket, Loxton totalled 5/153 from its 45 overs before dismissing the home side for 66. A decade on since its last success, veteran allrounder Michael Gutsche is the only player remaining from Loxton’s previous premiership. Since then, each of the other Riverland clubs have won at least one of the three cricket titles on offer (season premiership, limited overs or twenty20). Skipper Steve Inglis, who has returned to the game after a decade’s absence, was delighted with his team’s victory. For Inglis, it was also his first title with the club. His last match before his recess from the game being the losing 1998/99 season decider against Berri. However, Inglis was more delighted for some of the younger members of his team. Sam Hoffmann, who scored a high quality 69, Craig Fisher and Ryan Smith were all named by their captain as

Photo: BRAD PERRY being highly deserving of the win. “They are getting some rewards for the hard yards,” Inglis said. “Some of them were there when Loxton were getting belted.” He added the victory would also provide some impetus for the second half of the season when the focus turns towards two day matches and the overall title, which will be decided by a grand final in March. “It gives them confidence that we can achieve at the end of the year,” Inglis said. In Saturday’s final, Loxton batted first with Hoffmann the anchorman, forming good partnerships with Michael Gutsche (25) and

Brad Perry (15 n.o) to build a defendable tally. Renmark never looked in the hunt, with Smith, Fisher, Perry and Kale Smith all taking two wickets each. Meantime, Berri continued its dominance of local cricket, scoring another twenty20 championship, defeating Waikerie-Ramco by 23 runs at Berri on Sunday. Batting first, Berri made 7/118 with Paul Burnett (33) and Andrew Hume (26) the leading scorers. Chris Schutz took two wickets for the visitors. In reply, Waikerie-Ramco could only compile 6/95. Ricky Griffiths scored 37, while Simon Frankel was the pick of the bowlers with 2/8.

AFTER a year of agonising injury and tournament triumphs, 16 year old Riverland rising tennis star Luke Saville has grown in stature. Despite losing to top seed Peter Luczak in the Australian Open wildcard play-offs last week, Saville said the match was a highlight for him this year. Returning home to spend Christmas with his family, Saville, who is currently based in Canberra, said while there is a lot of expectation on him to succeed at such a young age, his focus is to play tennis, the game he loves. “I guess there is quite a bit of demand on me as a 16 year old but I have just got to cope with that and just push through it and enjoy my tennis,” he said. “It’s not really about the expectation for me. “It’s about getting out on the court every day and just working on my game and improving because in four or five years time, it’s not about how good I was at 16, it’s about how good I can get and how good I will be then. “I live and breathe the game and I love getting out there everyday and competing and training. “I’ve made a lot of sacrifices for it as well and have no regrets.” With young tennis players across the Riverland idolising Saville, he said he hopes he can be a great role model. “I’ve heard there’s a lot of very talented up and coming juniors in the Riverland and it’s nice for them to look up to me and hopefully I’m a good bench mark for them to aim for,” he said. The year began with success for Saville, winning South Australia’s best men’s and under

world. “Since that injury, I’ve had a pretty successful return as I made the semifinals of the 18 under Australian nationals, I won a junior ICF event in Thailand and made the second round at the Australian open play-off,” he said. “The match before playing Peter Luczak at the Australian Open wildcard play-offs, I played a guy (Joel Lindner) who was ranked around 700 places higher than me that I beat, so that was a real confidence booster.” The next step for Saville is to head to Melbourne for the Australian tennis summer, compete in the Australian Open juniors and possibly play in the Australian Open men’s qualifying if he can gain a wildcard entry. As far as future goals, Saville has the ambition to represent Australia in the Davis Cup and one day win a grand slam.

CHARLIE’S SPORTS GOSS WITH GRAHAM CHARLTON

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

Cobby dominates

■ AFTER dominating Riverland A grade softball for a decade or so, there have been doubts about Cobdogla being up to the required standard in the past couple of seasons. So much so that no A grade team was nominated by the club for the 2010-11 season. Results have spoken for themselves, however. With the association playing just one senior grade in the first half of the season to be divided into A and B grade competitions at this Christmas break, Cobdogla Gold has qualified for the As, along with Berri, Loxton and Waikerie. That would leave the B grade at Gerard, which finished one point below Waikerie, Lyrup, Cobdogla Blue, Renmark and Loxton B. However, I understand there is a complication, with Waikerie

expressing concern at a meeting on Monday night that it may not have sufficient players available to play at A grade level. An emergency meeting will be held at Glassey Park on January 3 to resolve the matter. All clubs are to be represented. Meanwhile, the association reports better news than in recent seasons as far as representative teams are concerned. Riverland will field two teams, under 17 girls and under 17 boys, at the SA Junior Championships in Port Pirie, February 19 and 20, and will also have B and D grade sides at the state senior championships in Adelaide.

■ WELL PLAYED: Cobdogla softballers have had a great first half of the season, which will see them elevated to A grade next year.

It’s Riverland basketball at its best ■ RIVERLAND junior basketballers will have a busy time next month. Ten teams, girls and boys, will again compete in the Starplex Carnival, at Gawler on Sunday, January 23, in under 10 years to under 16 age divisions. The number one girls and boys 16 and 18 teams will not take part, opting to go to the stronger Whyalla Carnival which attracts elite teams from Adelaide, as well as a number of state players. That tournament is on February 12 to 13. By then, the Riverland’s state representatives will have returned from commitments in Albury and Port Macquarie and will be available for the Whyalla event. Meanwhile, talking to Riverland president Les Lange earlier this week, he was over the moon about some of the senior competitions in 2010-11. He considered last week’s division one men’s round one of the best for a long, long time. Defending champions Barmera continued to get back to their best and defeated Renmark, while Berri, despite

some changes in personnel, won their first game for the season, proving far too good for Loxton who had really been running hot. “Early days it looked like Renmark by a mile,” Les said. “But that has all changed now. “The premiers are well hidden.” After 10 rounds, the ladder is Renmark (14 points), Loxton (13), Barmera (11) and Berri now gets on the board with two. In women’s division one, Renmark remains undefeated on 20 points followed by Loxton (12), Berri (eight), and Barmera (zero). Renmark is looking good for the title, although early this month Loxton got within seven points (29-36). There have been some close games in recent rounds, Loxton beating Berri (41-38 and 28-26) and Barmera (32-30), so there still seems to be a lot of basketball to be played.

Division two men will now comprise four teams, Allstars, Supercats, Warriors and Barmera , with the other five (Steamers, Berri, Waikerie, Loxton and Renmark), forming division three. Lange is predicting a titanic struggle in division two, with only a handful of points separating the four teams and the unlucky Steamers in fifth spot.

■ ACTION: Pennant bowls teams across the region have had a sensational start to the 2010-2011 season. Green defeated Monash and the threatening Renmark accounted for Barmera in important results. The skippers for Renmark (John Thompson, Mike Matulick and Bob Lockett), all with first division qualifications, gives an indication of that team’s strength. Just glancing through the

team sheets you can see that the quality of the bowlers is there in numbers. At Monash you see Kym Rudiger, Pat Brennan and Col Jennings, at Moorook, John White, Chad and Steve Pantic, Angie Wachtel, and at Lyrup, Lou Recchia and Nick Leach.

■ QUESTIONS are being raised about whether twenty20 cricket matches have a place in the overall Riverland premiership season. RTCA chief Paul Stewart has indicated the subject will come up for discussion before 2011-12. Thoughts are that a return to an independent, stand alone twenty20 carnival may be preferable, offering scope for more teams, guest personality players and generally more hype. Certainly twenty20 cricket has a place and is here to stay but it seems the initial excitement of the concept is wearing a bit thin. Some players are querying the wisdom of setting a day aside to play cricket and doing nothing but chase leather, albeit for only a short period. It would be tragic if an innovation designed to give the game an injection of interest actually drove players away. On the other hand, a twenty20 independent event opens up all kinds of possibilities.

Waikerie untouchable in touch football clash

Fight well and truly on for this season’s Riverland pennant bowls titles

■ IN THE majority of our sports, understandably, the top competition gets most of our attention. Take men’s pennant bowls for instance. At the half way mark of the season, Berri are clear pennant favourites but we know the fight is far from over. We are aware of the Loxton threat, while we wonder which Renmark RSL team is going to surface in 2011 after its upset win over Renmark last Saturday gave it third position and can Waikerie dust off their 2009-10 most improved tag? And what of Renmark? Is the sleeping giant just in a doze, or completely unconscious? Then there is Barmera, capable but inconsistent Barmera. What about the division two competition? Only 22 points separate Lyrup, top, and Waikerie, seventh, with some of the teams below that showing they are capable of upsets also. Last week Loxton RSL, second, rolled Lyrup, top, on the back of Lew Westbrook’s rink beating Tony Gyss 41-19, Loxton

Riverland T20 schedule in question

Loxton RSL has Tim Lehmann and Westbrook to name a few. In division three green, Renmark tops the ladder with 83 points, Berri is seventh on 62, and in three gold, Renmark is the comfortable leader on 102 but up to seven teams are lining up to have a crack at the final four.

■ WAIKERIE’S Untouchables have defeated Berri’s Starskys in the inaugural intertown touch football clash held at the Berri number one oval recently. Untouchables were the premiers in the first year of competition in Waikerie, while Starskys won the title for 2010 in the second season of the sport in Berri. Starskys surprised in their town’s grand final with a thrilling 6-5 victory over the previously undefeated Mallee Fouls. In the intertown match, Untouchables were led by an outstanding performance by 2010 Riverland Football League Whillas Medallist Damian Stevens, who scored five tries and received the game’s most valuable player trophy. Stevens’ Waikerie Magpies clubmate, Tim Bevan, contributed four tries, while for Starskys another footballer, Barmera Monash’s Dave Whitbourne, scored two and David Packer and Benita Dillon both one. With the sport only introduced to the Riverland some 14 months ago, the business operations manager of Touch Football SA, who was present at the intertown game, remarked at the high quality of both the facilities and the standard of play after such a short time. Already 10 teams and over 100 players are involved in the Berri and Waikerie competitions and there are proposals to develop the game further by holding more coaching clinics, umpires training and a local tournament.

Thursday December 23, 2010 – Riverland Weekly • 37 I asked that it be deleted then and there and clearly it wasn’t and I’m bitterly disappointed at my teammate for that ~ Nick Riewoldt ■ WINNER: Loxton’s Jill Lange has played in almost every sport and contributed off the field or court in some way.

SPORT

Jill’s a true sportsperson ■ WHEN the various award winners were announced at the recent Riverland Sportsperson of the Year presentation dinner, time only allowed for so much detail to be given about the recipients. Take for example Loxton’s Jill Lange, named as the 2009-10 5RM – Berri Ltd Steve McFarlane Contribution to Sport award winner. At the presentation it was acknowledged that “following an amazing 36 year commitment to basketball, Jill’s name has become iconic around the Riverland”. “Her involvement had included playing, coaching, umpiring and administration and she had been described as an inspiration to her peers and a selfless contributor to the community. “Jill’s contribution to basketball, in particular to junior development, demonstrated her commitment to the growth and development of sport in our re-

gion.” Indeed, there is much more to the Jill Lange (nee Sweeney) story. Jill attended the Catholic School St Albert’s Loxton and is one of a family of seven children, with one of her sisters Renmark netball-basketball stalwart Lyn ‘Leroy’ Sweeney. There are not many sports Jill has not played in some form or other. Basketball, netball, softball, tennis, squash, gymnastics and touch football, the list goes on. Her contribution to sport award had a lot to do with her involvement in coaching basketball but she also has a rare record in that capacity in netball. Encouraged by Loxton to take on the position with the A1s, she put her stamp of discipline and hard work on the team immediately for a premiership in her first year. Surprisingly, she did not seek reappointment the following season but did

return the year after that for another premiership and then retirement again. Jill explains, “I was completely exhausted after each season”. That is understandable, as there are definitely no half measures with this pleasant, astute and determined woman. Today, her main focus is on coaching and teaching juniors, both in basketball and netball. She is married to Les Lange, another sporting tragic and splendid contributor in a number of areas, including as Riverland Basketball Association president. The couple have two children, Che, 14, who has a scholarship to take him on a basketballing journey to USA next year, and Shyla, 10, who is already showing signs that she will play her part in what must surely be one of the region’s sportiest of sporting families.

Mike gears up for national veterans tennis championships ■ OUR local ‘have racquet will travel’ tennis stalwart Mike Horsman is off to Newcastle again on Boxing Day to make his annual appearance in the Australasian Veterans’ Teams Championships. Mike makes a step up in the age divisions this year to the 65-69 years, where he will captain a group of South Aussies, so he will be leaving all of his regular team-mates of recent times behind him in the over 60s. Numbers may be down to around 1300 at this tournament after Mike remembers it being at 2000 at one stage. He feels the drop could be the result of the event’s timing for veterans at this normally extremely hot time of the year. Ironically, these championships may run into wet weather if the season continues as it has been with rain and the like.

Local surprise Meanwhile, Horsman’s present Riverland club, Renmark Tintra, surprised a few normally good judges by scoring a two set victory over Cobdogla Gold last Saturday. Top side Renmark was slightly understrength and appeared vulnerable against the second placed challengers but rose to the occasion to win 7-68 to 5-68. The upset victory by Dave Strongman, 9-7 over Luke Hampshire, was probably the clincher for Renmark. Loxton also had a crucial win over Berriview 9-91 to 3-60 on Saturday to go into the Christmas break with a foothold on the final four. Premiership points are Renmark Tintra (15), Cobdogla Gold (12), Cobdogla Blue and Loxton (9), Berriview (7) and Moorook (2).

Strange occurrences on the courts

will be suitable for play when competitions resume after the festive season.

Over the years I have spoken to Mike Horsman on 5RM’s Sports Saturday tennis segment. I have often found him to be on his travels, sometimes doing strange things, but normally at that time of the week he has been engaged coaching or supervising juniors. No change a fortnight ago when he was at his beloved Barmera lawn courts but he sure was supervising an activity with a difference. Locusts had invaded the turfed areas and Mike had his junior group doing their utmost to move them on or to eradicate them. In the end it was decided to leave it to nature. Mike reports over 20 per cent of the lawn has been destroyed but with the roots unaffected, is confident that after scarifying, the courts

Young stars shine While talking of juniors, there was a rare performance by Barmera’s Blake Koskinas in the Loxton leg of the annual Riverland Grand Slam series. Playing at the lower end of the boys 10 years age group, Blake finished on top of the round robin table in both singles and doubles without losing a game. In the doubles, he was partnered by Broadview’s Charlton Gunn. Not to be outdone, Blake’s brother, William, also headed the singles and doubles in 12 year round robins. Another Barmera lad, Blake Guppy, was his doubles partner. Boys 14s matches were

keenly contested with another Broadview visitor, Joshua Gunn, topping the singles and Loxton pair Josh Fisher and Hamish Peberdy the doubles. At boys 16 level, there was another dual success, this time Renmark’s Michael Smith coming out of the round robin competition at the top in both singles and doubles. Jayce Golding (Loxton) joined him in the doubles. In girl’s competitions, Berri pair Alicia Shotton in 12 years and Marnie Stewart in 14s were the dominant performers. Alicia topped the singles and with Renmark’s Tianna Adamczyk the doubles, while Marnie did likewise with Imogen Weigall (Renmark) as her doubles partner. The next stage of the grand slam is at Renmark on January 29 and 30. WITH ROB McLEAN CALLUM TRIFONOFF

Festive season sport a big winner THE Boxing Day Test is, no matter who Australia is playing, always a crowd drawer and this year will be no exception, especially with the Ashes contest still in the balance. It is quite possibly the most celebrated sporting event of the Australian year, as Christmas is the day before, and everyone is buzzing for that perfect end to the festive season with local victory expected. Along with Australia, the English know how to put on a sporting show during Christmas. Almost for the whole of December, fans at English Premier League soccer matches wear Santa suits, sing songs linked to Christmas carols about their team and some even consider Boxing Day to be their Christmas, as long as their team picks up the three

points, that is. On Boxing Day, it is one of the only times when all 10 Premier League matches are played on the same day and they are highly popular games. I have had the experience of going to one of these Boxing Day matches and my uncle, who lives in London and attends every Chelsea home game, told me beforehand the atmosphere is better on that day than during any other match of the year and I certainly was not disappointed. When there, you could tell the festive season wasn’t over just because Christmas Day was and both the Chelsea and Reading fans were in the mood to party. The wearing of Christmas hats and Santa suits was de riguer and,

come the end of the game, the song Jingle Bell Rock played around the ground. It didn’t matter what the end result was (for the record, it was 2-2), the atmosphere was spectacular and the Christmas spirit between the fans was evident on this special day. Despite some English soccer fans having a ‘hooligan’ reputation, there was no real bad behaviour on this day, even though Chelsea did not quite get over the line As a kid, Boxing Day was usually the feel-kind-of-bad day of the year, as I knew it was another 364 days until Christmas came around again - but not that year. It was an amazing experience, one my family and I will never forget.

■ SPIRIT: Everyone gets into the Christmas spirit at Boxing Day sporting events. So to all Aussies going to the Ashes on Boxing Day, keep the Christmas spirit alive as you cheer the

team on to victory against England. Merry Christmas and a happy new year to you and yours.

Paving the way SINCE 1986, the Australian Paving Centre (APC) has been one of the most successful suppliers of masonry products in the country. The APC has 11 branches around the state and owner Damian Hone has seen many changes to the business since it formed. The team can help landscape with retaining wall units to make your home pleasing and can add a sense of value, character and appeal to your home. If you are thinking about performing work yourself, the APC team are more than willing to assist in any way, from legal building requirements to colour recommendations. With the most comprehensive range of masonry products, the APC can service throughout the state, tending to

any of your masonry needs. The APC has, in recent times, noticed a move away from smooth paving to a textured finish, fossil stone being one of the most popular. â&#x20AC;&#x153;In a complete about face, however, we have noticed in very recent months, a sudden return to the more traditional clay brick pavers in reds and autumn tones such as the Selkirk ranges which are exclusive to APC,â&#x20AC;? Damian said. The team can also offer advice on any queries you may have about getting the job done. For a free quote and the very best advice in paving, construction and retaining wall units, give the APC a call on 1800 200 200 or visit their website www.australianpaving.com

Mr Yates said tickets for Time Machine are selling fast. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I think though that weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll still have that last minute scramble,â&#x20AC;? he laughed. Mr Yates said celebrating New Yearâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Eve in such a way is great for the region. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I think itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s good for the people to come down and be proud of what we have here,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re showing off to people from the city just what kind of features we have down here, so it puts us on the map.â&#x20AC;?

Trifâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Trivia

THE Renmark Club and the Renmark Hotel have joined forces to create what may just be the biggest New Yearâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Eve party the Riverland has ever seen; Time Machine Renmark NYE 2010. That is certainly the intention of event co-ordinator Haydn Yates and fellow Time Machine organisers. It has been 10 years since Renmark saw a community New Yearâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Eve party, the last time counting down to the new millennium. â&#x20AC;&#x153;This year, we are hoping for a sell-out,â&#x20AC;? Mr Yates said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve had good local support from residents, as well as people from Mildura and Adelaide saying theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re going to come up.â&#x20AC;?

The night will see entertainment at the hotel, club and on the riverfront with three bands performing. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve got Terminal Zero, an ex-local group; Superturtle; a Mildura band; and a Bon Jovi tribute act (New Jersey),â&#x20AC;? Mr Yates said. As well as the bands, Time Machine also has several DJs and solo artists on offer, as well as former Magic FM host Peter Deppeler as MC. Adding to the massive nightâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s entertainment at Time Machine will be two fireworks spectaculars. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve got one for the family at 9.30pm and one at midnight for the countdown,â&#x20AC;? Mr Yates said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll also have some boarding as well, like barefooting, kneeboard-
