MONASH WINERY’S

$3 MILLION SALE

By BRAD PERRY MONASH based Cockatoo Ridge Winery has been given a lifeline by a Riverland family business, selling for a bargain basement $3 million after falling into voluntary administration last year. After reportedly attracting interest from Chinese investors, the property was purchased by Renmark business Ral Ral Creek Vineyards and will operate under the name Ral Ral Creek Wines from the end of the month. ■ Continued Page 2

Cockatoo Ridge winery sold to locals

■ From Page 1

The property (pictured above), which was believed to be valued at $14.3 million two years ago, covers more than 12 hectares, features major winery plant and equipment, a 60 tonne capacity weighbridge, an office and accommodation, a tasting room, a fully equipped laboratory and storage sheds, which store up to 21 million litres of wine. Ral Ral Creek vineyards spokesperson Andrew Eleftheriadis said Kingston Estate Wines will continue to lease the property under the current 12 month agreement. However, when Kingston Estate’s lease expires for the winery built in 2005, Mr Eleftheriadis said the family business is likely to return the site to its former glory. “If Kingston won’t lease it for a further 12 months, we will probably start processing,” he said. If the winery was to return to full scale production, Mr Eleftheriadis said many local jobs would be created. “Of course,” he said when asked whether further jobs would be employed at the winery in the future. The Eleftheriadis family, which owns several assets across the Riverland, believes the Monash based winery is a fantastic purchase. “It’s a very good investment,” Andrew Eleftheriadis said. “It is good that someone locally bought it and not investors.” The company Cockatoo Ridge Wines, which was formed two decades ago, went into voluntary administration in January last year with debts of more than $16 million, after struggling with the wine industry glut and high Australian dollar.

THE members of the Barmera Men’s Shed are a true inspiration. Traditionally, the stereotype of men their age, particularly when they retire, is that they like to keep to themselves, pottering in their own shed. This isolation that can often result in an early death for an otherwise outwardly healthy individual. These blokes, though, outspoken all, are out and about getting involved in the community in a way they might not have predicted when they were much younger. The Barmera Men Shed members, like, I assume, similar groups across the region, come from different walks of life and have had varied experiences. Get them together, though, and, dare I say it, they will give the ladies a run for their money in the gossip stakes. When spending some time with these gentlemen on the Barmera lakefront on Tuesday though, the thing I noticed most about them was their thirst for life at a time when some might consider it has passed them by. It was a truly inspiring moment in a world which celebrates youth in almost a cult like fashion. Good on ya blokes, keep it up!

River peak helps lift spirits

JUST over 12 months ago, six Barmera men stood on the Lake Bonney jetty to illustrate what low river levels had done to their lake. The Barmera Men’s Shed members were disappointed by a funding knockback for a project they believed would help revitalise their town. Today, as the river peak moves through the region, the very jetty those men stood on is a symbol of the impact rising river levels have had on the entire Riverland community, the waters lapping at the edge of what was a beach only six months ago. Three of the men returned to the jetty on Tuesday to again have their photo taken on the jetty. They were joined by three ring-ins (including an interstate visitor), and all were delighted by what they are now seeing. “It’s magnificent, great to see,” Rob Todd said. “The water’s right up and the lake is being used again.” When Riverland Weekly photographer Jane Wilson

REPORT BY

ROB McLEAN took the original photo in January last year, she stood on sand below the jetty. This time around the water was too deep for her and she was forced to lay on the shore to re-enact the shot. The five local men said the high waters had certainly added an air of positivity to the town. “Since the water has come up, the amount of activities that are taking place on the lake have increased,” Gary Fleet said. “That’s why people come here, the lake.” “Everybody I talk to is talking about it and how good it is to see water levels across the region rising and the lake getting used,” Rob added. It is a mood reflected right across the Riverland. Locals at Loxton have been enjoying the unusual site of Grant Schubert Drive

being inundated with water, while at Berri, Martin’s Bend has become an aquatic playground of sorts. At Renmark, the Paringa sandbar is also attracting visitors keen to have a look at the new submerged environment. Yabby fans right across the region are also having their fun, prompting the commencement of a competition to find the Riverland’s biggest yabby. The sixth man in the photo, Western Australian Lyell Edmonds, stopped in at Barmera with his wife Trish earlier this week, where they caught up with friend Les Rashleigh, before moving on to Loxton. The couple were delighted with how the region looks, wishing their farming home town of Jerramungup was just as green. “Everything’s very nice, clean and tidy,” Lyell said. “The lake is just looking beautiful.” After 17 years of low rivers, the Riverland is thrilled to be celebrating a watery revival.

Water flows hit Riverland at 94,000 megalitres per day By BRAD PERRY RIVER MURRAY levels throughout the Riverland are currently peaking due to heavy rainfall and flooding across the border, with flows reaching 94,000 megalitres per day at the border on the weekend. It is believed water flows peaked at Loxton yesterday and Berri on Tuesday, while Morgan is set to receive the peak this weekend. South Australian Department for Water director of Murray Darling Basin Operations Andrew Beal said peak flows occurred to the region on Sunday and are now sitting at around 88,000 megalitres per day. “We are seeing the flows at the border falling now, so that peak flow would be passing through the Riverland at the moment in the Lock Two to Lock Five zone,” he said. “We’ve effectively seen the peak pass through the border now (and the Riverland is) seeing the tail of that peak. “At this stage, we’re not expecting it to go up to a

90,000 (megalitres per day) peak again.” Without any further major rain events, Mr Beal said peak flows will continue to slowly drop to around 75,000 megalitres per day at the end of March to 30,000 to 40,000

At this stage we’re not expecting to see it go up to a 90,000 (megalitres per day) peak again.

megalitres per day later in the year. “Current projections are showing we are now falling down into the mid 80,000 megalitres and will stay above 80,000 until the first week of March,” Mr Beal said. A further two peaks are expected in South Australia and Mr Beal said each will

mean river levels will fall very slowly and the duration of high flows will be extended significantly. Mr Beal said predictions do not take into account a change in circumstances. “It is possible there will be continued releases from Menindee and possibly pre-releases from Hume Dam,” he said. Meanwhile, South Australian Water Minister Paul Caica again said irrigation allocations are likely to be 100 per cent from July 1 after figures indicate the state will receive its full 1850 gigalitre entitlement flow for 2011-12. Currently irrigators are only entitled to 67 per cent of their allocations and will remain on that figure for the rest of the irrigation season. The improved flow conditions in the River Murray have provided the state with more than 8000 gigalitres so far this season. The River Murray’s inflows during January were 1750 gigalitres above the long-term January average of 230 gigalitres.

Close of Nominations

Pickers flock to region

Southern Mallee District Council Supplementary Election for 2 Councillors in Kelly Scales Ward and 1 Councillor in Bews Ward

By BRAD PERRY

At the close of nominations at 12 noon on Thursday 10 February 2011, Bruce Lincoln Summerton and Barry James Lukin were elected unopposed as the only nominated candidates for Kelly Scales Ward and Alfred Walker was elected unopposed as the only nominated candidate for Bews Ward. No election will be necessary. K Mousley Returning Ofﬁcer ELECOM011785

THE Riverland has become increasingly popular with overseas travellers looking for a working holiday, as hundreds of backpackers embark on this year’s picking season. Despite heavy rain, which has delayed work at times so far this season, backpackers are remaining upbeat and enjoying

the challenge. German backpacker Anthony Kirklin said he was searching online for a place to travel and work and discovered Berri Backpackers, which has gained a popular following. “People, as a comment, said it’s the best backpackers,” he said. “I came here, found a job and have been here for six months. “The people are very friendly. “To me it seems very international as there is a lot of work, so a lot of people come (to the Riverland), so you see a lot of people from all over the world.” Fellow German traveller Falk Hofmann said he does not regret making the choice to stay and work in the Riverland. “I liked the Riverland and I earnt good money here,” he said. Mark Garland came to the region from Birmingham,

England, a decade ago to work and loved it so much he now lives here.

PICKING IN THE RAIN The past fortnight has seen feverish activity with backpackers picking as much fruit as they could before this week’s rain. The constant bursts of heavy rain in past months has not only caused widespread damage to local growers’ fruit but has given pickers uncertainty as to whether they will get work. “There has been a lot of damage,” Mr Kirklin said. “Everybody suffers, the boss suffers because he loses a lot of money, we suffer because there is not so much work to do. “The rain makes it all unclear,

how can we work, how long will the season last, can we come to work this day? “The rain is stress actually for anyone.” Mr Kirklin and Mr Hofmann have been picking stonefruit at Renmark North grower Dino Cerrachi’s property and worked as fast as possible to remove ripe fruit before rain this week. “We try to watch the weather forecast and pick a little bit more before it rains but not too much because we pick just quality fruit,” Mr Kirklin said. “It’s a little bit like poker.” Backpackers are now staying in the region even longer, seeking work, following the destruction of most Queensland crops by flood or cyclone.

JUST like the movie Babe, where a pig was raised alongside dogs, Renmark man Toby Blackley has a furry friend who is a little different – a pig with attitude. Affectionally known as Piggy Wiggy, Toby’s porcine pet thinks it is a dog, only needing a whistle to return to its owner. The large pig has created a home for itself next to Toby’s front door and often greets his owner with plenty of bark in the morning. “She thinks she’s a dog, she grunts, she bites, she growls at people,” he said. “She’s a pig with an attitude, that’s what she is.” After deciding owning a pet pig would be a unique choice, Toby purchased Piggy Wiggy from a friend who owns a piggery and, in a short time, she has grown considerably. “She’s just different and interesting,” he said. “She’s huge, I’ll (be interested to) see how big she gets.” Toby owns two dogs and the pig has no problem interacting with them, in fact one of the dogs thinks it is the pig’s mother. “She plays with the dogs, eats with the dogs, sleeps with dogs,” he said. “Sometimes she comes up for a pat. “She plays with a ball and is quite at home with them.” The pig has become a talking point in Renmark and popular with those visiting the property. While Piggy Wiggy may think she is a dog, there is one piggish trait she keeps – rolling in the mud.

Special award winners

By CALLUM TRIFONOFF THE Riverland Special School certainly lives by its motto: Teaching for ability, not disability. Two of the school’s students, Mark Shepherd and Brodie Wegener, recently stood out in their respective fields. Mark won the Australian School Based Apprentice of the Year Award from Trade Schools SA and Brodie received the Male Athlete of the Year Award at the Special Olympics in Adelaide for soccer and 10-pin bowling. Mark, currently an apprentice at Rosenthal Automotive, in Berri, said he was surprised to receive the award from Trade Schools SA. “I didn’t know it was coming, didn’t know anything about it,” he said. “I’m really proud to win it.” Mark hopes to continue with Rosenthal Automotive after he finishes his apprenticeship at the end of the year. “He’s currently doing a cert two,” Mark’s employer Brendan

Crocker said. “At the end of the year, we’ll see what happens.” Meanwhile, Brodie, a soccer fanatic, has travelled all over the country with his Special Olympic team-mates and prior to winning Male Athlete of the Year at Adelaide’s Shore’s Function Centre, won a silver medal at the national championships in Melbourne. Brodie also won a bronze medal at the state titles in Adelaide. His mother Sharon said the amount of local support for her son is really pleasing. Prior to the nationals, Brodie would travel to Adelaide every fortnight. “We’d get there at 10am and we would train until 12,” Brodie said. “It was really exciting and I got more friends out of it.” Next on Brodie’s list is to be selected for the Australian side, which will travel to Athens in June, in either 10-pin bowling or soccer.

Big win at annual Clubs SA awards

By CALLUM TRIFONOFF

OFFERING quality dining and fabulous entertainment, the Renmark Club received its just desserts at the 2010 Clubs SA awards last week. The popular Renmark venue was awarded Club of the Year and Best Club

Operation. Manager Brenton Franks said he was delighted the club had received such recognition. “It’s great for the club to get recognised for all the hard work we’ve done for the previous year,” Mr Franks said. It is the second straight year the major

honour had been presented to the venue. Mr Franks said Renmark benefits by the club winning such awards. “It’s fantastic, any award we win gets more publicity for the town,” he said. Prior to its back-toback success, the Renmark

Club won the same award in 2004. “It’s taken us a while to get running,” Mr Franks said. “We’re on the right track now and we’re running at 99 per cent.” The awards night was held at the Morphettville Racing Course on Saturday.

AS if the high river had not caused enough problems for the Murray River Queen, changes in the state’s marine laws means one of the Riverland’s most famous paddlesteamers will not reach requirements to cruise for at least two years. Waikerie’s Murray River Queen owner Ian Edwards said the boat was originally under a passenger limit re-

striction, which allowed it to cruise but a change in laws means it will be voluntarily taken out of survey. “They (the State Government) gave us three years to put in these bulkheads to secure each bulkhead for flooding,” he said. “The cost for me, so early, was completely out of (the question), so we’ve decided to voluntarily take it out of survey at this stage.” By voluntarily taking the

boat out of survey, Mr Edwards said he now has two years to meet State Government requirements, whereas if the Department of Marine and Harbors had taken the vessel out of survey, it would never have been able to sail again. The Murray River Queen was closed two weeks ago due to the rising river levels but its owners are hopeful it will reopen its accommodation and cafe soon.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR Water question MINISTER Caica’s visit to the Riverland recently may have provided Faulty Towers type entertainment apart from the fact that irrigators and our community view water management way too important than to be put upon by such befuddle waffle. The Minister returned to Adelaide to investigate the transfer of water from irrigators holding to much carry over water to irrigators who did not buy any carryover water. As any irrigator knows, transferring water is an expensive and time consuming process and to think that the

best solution was for about 1000 irrigators to handover water that they are going to lose to 1000 other irrigators. At today’s lease rates, most would not recoup the cost of the government’s trade fees. Minister Caica has three easy options: (1) the government has 160 GL of Class 6 (CHN) water that the Minister is contemplating converting to Class 3 (environmental) water. This water could just as easily be given as allocation to irrigators – the environment is under water. (2) Each state operates a cap credits account. Unlike Victoria and NSW, SA’s account has a healthy credit – the remaining 33 per cent of

irrigators’ entitlement could be described to this account. (3) The minister has 303 GL in another account that like the other two pieces of water he has unfettered powers to change to another purpose. Irrigators in SA only have high security (HS) entitlements. Magnificent river flows like this in other states means 100 per cent HS allocations. What future can irrigators and river communities look forward to in SA if 67% is all our HS entitlement is worth in a flood year? Tom Martin, Renmark.

Grape diseases see call for extra stock By BRAD PERRY

Powdery and downy mildew have had the biggest impacts on Riverland vineyards this season but plant pathologist Peter Magarey said bunch rot appears the next big concern. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s probably as bad as 1992/93, the last bad year we had for bunch rot,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We are going to get a year where we are just not going to be able to stop it. â&#x20AC;&#x153;There is going to be such a solid amount of bunch rot and this is heading towards a year like that. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a huge challenge that maybe we canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t overcome.â&#x20AC;? Bunch rot occurs under warm, hu-

DISEASES impacting upon winegrape production in the Riverland may see wineries searching for extra stock, with quality problems prompting fears of rejection of some varieties. CCW co-operative limited chairman Jim Caddy said there are signs winegrape prices may rise. â&#x20AC;&#x153;There is no doubt there is a little bit of extra demand out there at the moment,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Prices havenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t lifted yet but there are some signs and it depends how much damage has been done in the vineyards.â&#x20AC;?

Mr Magarey said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;So potentially, the Riverlandâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s on the cusp of suffering huge losses from bunch rot. â&#x20AC;&#x153;On the other hand, it might dry up.â&#x20AC;? Mr Magarey said growers are being offered between $180 to $250 per tonne of winegrapes, when around $400 is needed to cover costs.

Italian student seeks funghi

RENMARK tourist attraction Rustonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Roses officially opened its new $700,000 function centre last night. Senator Nick Sherry, the Minister Assisting the Minister for Tourism, conducted the opening. The facility is an extension of the popular David Ruston Rose Centre and has already proved popular with locals, according to Rustonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Roses proprietor Anne Ruston. Ms Ruston said the decision to increase the size of the facility had two benefits attracting more visitors and providing greater tourism options in the region. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a great opportu-

nity in this region to expand tourism and we decided to be part of it,â&#x20AC;? Ms Ruston said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s offering an alternative. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve found weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve had a lot of support from other operators because they realise what we need to do is have enough (tourism) product that people will stay longer.â&#x20AC;? Ms Ruston said the function centre, building of which was completed in September, is also attracting conferences, weddings and other events. The versatile room has also allowed for an increased number of vintage vehicles, an already well known feature of the venue, to be on display.

Local Census support needed ARE you interested in converting your community work to helping everyone in Australia? If so, the Australian Bureau of Statistics has a Census job that can help you do so. Due to the 2011 Census taking place on Tuesday, August 9, 3500 area supervisors are required to help oversee the delivery and collection of over 14 million Census forms to Australiaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s 9.8 million households. For South Australia, approximately 300 area supervisors are needed, while the Riverland requires only around 15. SA Census spokesperson Mike McGrath said area supervisors are essential to ensure the success of the Census and to make sure all citizens in SA are accurately counted. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Area supervisors make an enormous difference to the quality and accuracy of the data that we produce from the Census by managing collectors,â&#x20AC;? Mr McGrath said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The data we collect allows quality planning for the future.â&#x20AC;? People volunteering to become area supervisors will receive between $4300 and $7500 for their part-time position. Employment will run from April 18 to October 7.

The severity of this problem was elevated by the extreme burst of a 40+ degree heat wave at the time, causing the large fruit grower, situated in the Waikerie area, much concern. David, employed by Sunlands Irrigation Trust for 26 years, has always maintained the importance of keeping suction screens clean to achieve optimum pump performance.

FUNGUS would not appeal to many but for Italian plant pathology PhD student Sara Legler it is a very interesting topic. Sara is currently in the Riverland looking at diseases such as powdery and downy mildew, which have been prominent on local grapevines this season. Coming from a stint in Germany, the 27 year old decided to head to Loxton and work with plant pathologist Peter Magarey. Since arriving here late last month, Sara has not only discovered the concerning mildew diseases but has been impressed by the Riverlandâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s irrigation systems. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I see the biggest problem is water,â&#x20AC;? she said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m not familiar with this because, in Italy, in particular, in the northern part of Italy and even in Germany, water is really not a problem. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We have a lot and we donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t have irrigation systems because there is enough there with the rainwater.â&#x20AC;?

Great Guides! Girls always keen to volunteer

THEY may be young but when it comes to helping the community, the Berri Girl Guides are always keen to join in. To help the homeless people in the Riverland, several members of the Berri and Special Guides slept overnight in boxes last week to raise money for the Salvation Army. Members of the Special

Guides said the experience of sleeping in a box was fun. “It was nice and warm,” Monique Hentschke said.“A few of us slept in boxes and some of us were in cubbyhouses.” Berri Salvos Crisis Intervention Team Nicole Barber and Linda Noble were thrilled at the Guides’ enthusiasm towards the project. “It’s excellent, it really is

great,” Mrs Barber said. “People don’t realise how many homeless people there are in the Riverland.” The Guides donated the money to the Salvos, who used it to purchase gas stoves, insect repellant, torches and sunscreen for the homeless. It was the fourth consecutive year the Guides have taken part in the event.

Meet Charlotte From England, to the Riverland, via NZ

THIS week, the Riverland Weekly introduces our newest contributor, teen issues columnist Charlotte Elliot. Charlotte was born in Bath, England, in 1998, and moved to New Zealand aged four. In New Zealand, Charlotte spent seven years before moving to Australia. Charlotte is now 13 and has just started studying at Glossop High School. Her passions are art, photography, Manga (Japanese comics) and writing. Charlotte’s dislikes are maths class and tomatoes. A column in the Riverland Weekly is Charlotte’s first step in achieving her ambition of becoming a successful novelist and illustrator.

WELL, another set of school holidays have been and gone and now I’m back in the grind of school. Fortunately for me, my summer getaway has revived me enough to help me get through the challenge of returning to school. I was lucky enough to go to New Zealand and revisit my former home. Our family came from England to New Zealand when I was only little and then lived there for seven years. We moved to Australia shortly after my 11th birthday, I’m now 13. On January 4, I arrived in Auckland Airport, about two hours away from my ■ COLUMNIST: Charlotte Elliot.

C CHARLOTTE ELLIOTT TTEEN PERSPECTIVE past hometown, Whangarei. The first two things I noticed, compared to Australia, were: ■ The foliage. Everywhere you look the plants are a rich, healthy green, probably due to the fact they are fed regularly by the continuous showers. The grass is normally wild and overgrown, with very little exposed earth. ■ The weather. The sky is normally a gloomy grey and the clouds have a tendency to drizzle or come down hard. But some days you notice that the atmosphere is

a clear, even blue and that the white-hot sun beams down. Going outside at that time sounds pleasant but it is actually scorching and unbearably humid. Coming from New Zealand to Australia was an incredible experience, especially coming from a hectic area to a serene silent cluster of towns. At first, I remember, schooling seemed complicated. In New Zealand when you’re five years old, you go into your first year, Year One. Makes more sense, in

my honest opinion. Here, though, Year One is Reception. It sounds weird, as if all the five-year-olds sit at the front desk of a hotel all day. I felt so unusual and alien in the Riverland and it seemed utterly unfair to me to be in a wine-making area. Why not a chocolatemaking area? Well, never mind. The Riverland, and Australia, is still a great place and returning to it after my holidays was surprisingly soothing. In the end, I’m glad I moved here to experience the Riverland’s natural beauty and peacefulness. I have certainly grown to love it.

Many people are not aware you can insure yourself against critical illness. Critical Illness or trauma insurance provides a lump sum if you become critically ill so you can pay your mortgage or anything else that needs funding. It takes away the financial pressure so you can concentrate on getting better.

T SEEMS like there is always time to talk about the little things in life but discussing the big issues is never as easy. If you think about what is really important to you â&#x20AC;&#x201C; family, security and your way of life â&#x20AC;&#x201C; you realise the need to keep them safe. Illness is not a subject anyone likes to dwell on but the unfortunate reality is you, or someone close to you, will be critically ill at some stage. The financial cost of this is something you can avoid. Research shows living expenses during a time of critical illness can be about $80,000 a year, not including the cost of medical treatment and rehabilitations ^. For many people, the scenario gets worse as their illness prevents them from working and they lose their income, then their savings and investments. But it does not have to be this way.

BERRI BARMERA LOCAL ACTION PLANNING Committee Update

From the Project . . . k s e D ’s r e g a n a M W

elcome to our first newsletter for 2011, and isn’t it a crazy summer we have been having, not only here in the Riverland but right across the country. Our thoughts are with everyone who has suffered from fires, floods and cyclones. Of course the trade-off from all of the rain over the past few months has been the further increase in flow in the River. Last November I was remarking at how good it was to see our wetlands filling despite the flows at the time being mitigated somewhat. We are now seeing the best flow since 1993, and at this stage the current flow peak of around 80-90 thousand ML/day is expected to remain for a couple weeks before receeding. The wetlands and floodplains are looking the best they have for a long time, and we are seeing a fantastic response from vegetation (River Red Gums, Black Box and Lignum), water birds and frogs in particular. There are plenty of reports of yabbies, and, on the negative side, massive numbers of carp in the wetlands. When the water levels do eventually drop, we will try and use fish screens on our managed wetlands at Overland Corner, Spec Lakes, Loveday and Martin Bend in order to try and stop carp re-entering the river. Native fish are generally the first to return to the main channel once water levels start receeding, so this gives us a chance to leave at least some carp stranded high and dry. We know a blackwater event (no or low oxygen in the water) is just starting to enter the state from upstream, so we have to wait and see what impact that has on us. The River should be reaching its peak about the time this goes to print, so hopefully that flow helps reduce the impact of this event somewhat. In other news, we have secured around $15,000 in funding from the Commonwealth Governments Caring for Our Country program. This funding will be used to survey and begin controlling noxious weeds in and around the above wetlands. Work on this project will commence once water levels subside enough to allow access. We hope to catch up with many of you throughout 2011, and as always feel free to contact us if there is any activity we may be able to assist you with.

Community led adaptation In the Riverland A sustainable way forward OUR climate is changing. Whether you believe it is anthropological or cyclic changes to our weather, it is having an impact on the lives of individuals, organisations and communities like ours. Climate change is highlighting the relationship between our social wellbeing, our environment and our economic health. Whilst the Berri Barmera LAP Committee has traditionally undertaken environmental projects and engaged the community in environmental repatriation, we are now working with Julie Pettett to develop a community engagement program to support Riverland communities to work together and identify adaptation opportunities. It is important to note that the intent on this project is to cover the entire Riverland region, from the Bor-

der to Blanchetown. All levels of government (Federal, State and Local), business, communities and individuals all need to be working on adaptation strategies, it is everyone’s issue, not something that can be left to governments. After all in the Riverland we know the issues, we know our communities, so it is important that we work together to identify opportunities to respond. ‘Community-led Adaptation in the Riverland…a sustainable way forward’ is a working title for the proposed project. We intend that this project will help build resilience and inspire behaviour change and support Riverland communities to act on identiﬁed opportunities. It is important to note that the intent on this project is to cover the entire Riverland region, from the

Community Expo… Facilitate a Community Sustainability Expo in the Riverland to give community organisations and volunteer groups the opportunity to highlight their role in a sustainable future for the Riverland. This would provide a showcase for new initiatives giving all sectors of the community, including Government, Industry and Business, an opportunity to support their work and foster partnerships. First things ﬁrst….in order to further develop the program we need to undertake a feasibility study, involving community focus groups, to ensure we have the best program for our community.

Seed propagation workshops at Kungun Centre BERRI Barmera LAP Project Ofﬁcer Samantha Blight has begun organising several native plant propagation workshops to be run at the Kungun Center in Glossop. Project participants are clients from Mission Australia Employment Solutions and Madec, with support received from SA Murray Darling Basin NRM Board and Regional Development Australia. All the seedlings propagated and grown will be given to local landholders interested in revegetating their properties. The seed used has been collected from locally grown species such as mallee eucalyptus, acacia, mela-

leuca, salt bush, hop bush, native pine, native apricot and senna’s, together with seed sourced from Trees for Life. Participants will be trained in all facets of native plant propagation, including identifying species that require a pre-treatment process, developing effective planning and prioritising skills and improving their communication skills. Project participants will also have the opportunity to plant out all the seedlings they propagated and grew, to successfully see the project through to completion.

Revegetation in 2011

Til next time......

Border to Blanchetown, and not just the Berri Barmera area. The proposed program will involve engaging not for proﬁt community groups and clubs through; Community Education delivering an overview of the key issues of the changing climate and the sustainability policy agenda. Presentations will be delivered to community organisations and volunteer groups across the Riverland. Sustainability Seminar Hold a one day Sustainability Seminar in the Riverland with presentations about and on issues impacting Riverland communities: implications of changing weather patterns, population health issues, science and technological advances. Showcasing key resilience projects, at a local, state and national level.

This is your last opportunity to seek free assistance for 2011. You must get in contact with us by the end of February if you wish to be supplied with free plants and tree guards this year. We are currently propagating and growing seedlings, and will hopefully have a good supply of tubestock

ready for planting this autumn. This means the sooner we know people’s requirements the better organised we can be to effectively supply landholder’s with seedlings. Please give Sam a call at the ofﬁce on 8582 2183 for further information or to place an order

Overbank flooding improves habitat for rare bird As with many wetlands and floodplains, the Martin’s Bend wetland has been struggling to survive without flooding for the last decade. High river flows started inundating the area’s temporary basins and low-lying parts of the floodplain in November 2010. During February 2011, flows of around 90,000 ML/d resulted in more widespread inundation. Already signs of recovery are visible in the tree health and undergrowth. During recent frog monitoring NRM Board wetland staff member Tim Inkster reported hearing a possible Australian Little Bittern. Subsequently, Peter Waanders and other observers went to check out the site by kayak and almost immedi-

ately after arriving heard the bird calling. After struggling through dense reeds they got to within 5 meters of it calling and eventually managed to see the lone bird sitting in a River Coobah tree just above the tops of dense reeds. This species is listed as Endangered in SA and extremely rare here along the SA River Murray; the most recent record was one at Piawalla near Murray Bridge during 2008. Australian Little Bitterns frequent terrestrial freshwater wetlands that have dense emergent vegetation and they eat small, aquatic invertebrates and tadpoles, and nest in dense vegetation over water.

OVER the next few months, the BBLAP Committee will be developing its strategic plan for the next 5 years, outlining the projects and activities it sees as priorities for implementing and seeking funding for. As the Committee is a community based organisation, it is essential that we offer you the chance to provide input. Once the draft plan is developed, we will circulate it to interested people, and look at holding a community workshop if there is enough interest. If you have any ideas or opinion on what you would like to see achieved in the Berri Barmera area from an environmental or sustainability perspective, or to request a copy of the draft plan once released, please contact Paul on 8582 2183.

7ETLAND MONITORING DATES FOR HERE are the dates for our wetland community monitoring program for 2011. Fish, frog and bird monitoring days will be held in Spring / Summer, and we will advise those dates in due course. Please RSVP for any of these

monitoring days at least 3 days in advance so we can organise catering. Due to the current high water levels, we have cancelled the normal March round of monitoring. We are currently looking at the option of a community monitoring “day” where we will go to all four wetlands, do some monitoring where we can access sites, and demonstrate

the response of the wetlands (vegetation, birds, frogs etc) and ﬁnish up with a BBQ and drinks. It is likely that this will be on a Saturday or Sunday in March, subject to interest. If you would like to be involved please contact Paul or Sam on 8582 2183.

WITH ANDREW WALLADGE

Nowâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s the best time to plant

have often said the best time to plant is now. That is; if you have the time and inclination, plant now before both pass. However, right now we have even more reason to plant right now. Rarely do we have â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;perfectâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; planting conditions which include no frost, warm weather, warm soils and moist soils. Does this sound a lot like right now? You bet. For most areas in the Riverland and Mallee, substantial summer rainfall will mean huge volumes of sub-soil moisture and a great time to be planting. The best way to retain this moisture in the soil (or keep it for your desired plants) is to start (and maintain) weed control. Even if you havenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t planted yet, still do the weed control as this will act as a moisture â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;bankâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; for later. So, we have â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;perfectâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; planting conditions and you are maintaining weed control. It is now time to do your

planning. Work out plant species, numbers and placement. Put in place your irrigation if that is part of your plan all the while maintaining the weed control. Mulch will help here as part of your weed control program. Local suppliers usually have a good selection of various types of mulches. Suppliers should also be able to help with estimating quantities required for a given area. Once you have done your entire weed control and planning, physically choosing (ask for help if you are not sure what to plant) and planting your plants can be one of the most satisfying aspects to gardening. I think the act of planting is full of promises of good things to come. Us â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;plantersâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; will look back on the summer of 2010/2011 as the â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;wet oneâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;. We will also look back upon the plants planted this summer with a smile of gardening satisfaction.Join the club! Now.

Frogs: A wonderful family pet

ROGS are great family pets which are becoming even more popular in homes. However, keeping a frog is not as easy as it sounds and requires a knowledge on how to look after them. Frogs will not eat dead food or food which is not moving and must be in an environment with sufficient shelter, clean water and enough room to feed. Owners will also have to remember that having a pet frog is a big commitment, with some living for up to two decades. While there are several types of frogs, one of the most popular kept as a pet are the green tree frogs.

FEEDING YOUR FROG It is important a frog has a well balanced diet, maintained over its life span. The diet should include insects such as crickets, cockroaches, mealworms and flies. Most of these insects will need to be sourced from a local supplier (or you can grow your own) as it is very hard to continually catch insects to feed the frog. There are certain frogs which will take food from your hand but make sure your hand is washed with rainwater, to prevent any disease harming the frog. â&#x2013; CLINGY: Frogs might like to cling onto things but you can give them It has been suggested from frog breeders that the as little or as much attention as you like. Photo: JANE WILSON pet should be fed 10 to 20 per cent of its body size every two to three days.

MAINTAINING YOUR FROG AQUARIUMS are the ideal home for a pet frog and the larger the home, the more comfortable the frog will be in its environment. So the frog feels right at home, its aquarium should look as much like its natural environment as possible. To decorate, rocks, plants and a small pond (treated to remove the chlorine) are ideal and an

aquarium heater is vital to keep temperatures around 20 degrees. It is important to remember frogs can climb glass walls and possibly will try and escape so the enclosure needs to be escape proof. Do not be put off if you do not see your pet frog during the day, frogs are nocturnal and may remain hidden during that time.

UST look at the views. Great aren’t they? That is why it is so hard to believe that those views are from the front yard of a large family home. Not far from the shops in Waikerie or schools and services for that matter. The home in question is a versatile four Bedroom layout. It’s versatile because it can either four bedrooms with a study, or ﬁve bedrooms. There are also two separate living areas, a formal lounge at the front for entertaining and a family room at the rear. Another great highlight is the double car garage with separate roller doors which is under the main roof. This property may not last long, so if your’re interested – you had better act fast.

Camry: Best selling Aussie built car

Big event preview

OYOTA Camry has achieved a winning double as the best-selling, Australian-built car and the best-selling car in the United States. Substantial domestic and export sales combined to make Camry the top-selling car built in this country in 2010. Production of the popular mid-size car, at Toyotaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s plant in Melbourneâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s west, exceeded 95,000 sedans, substantially greater output than any other locally produced vehicle. Of these, in excess of 70,000 vehicles were exported to more than 20 destinations, while just over 25,000 cars were sold on the local market. Camry was also the

nificant victory for Camry, which is one of the worldâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s most successful cars with total global sales of more than 12 million units. Toyota Australia has been Australiaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s largest car exporter for each of the past 15 years, with Camry dominating. The Australian-built Camry is the best-selling car in the United Arab Emirates and has been Australiaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s most popular mid-size car for the past 17 years. Camry has topped the U.S. sales charts for 13 of the past 14 years, including the past nine years in a row. Toyotaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Altona factory, which produces Hybrid Camry and the V6 Aurion in addition to Camry, is one of eight plants around

the world where Camry is built. The other plants are in the United States (two), Japan, Thailand, China, Russia and Vietnam. In 1987, Australia became the first country outside Japan to build the Camry. Exports, mainly to the Middle East, began in 1993. Last year, Toyota Australia produced the 1.5-millionth locally-built Camry and exported its 500,000th vehicle to Saudi Arabia - a Camry. The company entered a new era for the local car industry in 2010 when it began producing Hybrid Camry, the first Australianbuilt hybrid car.

best-selling car in the United States last year with 327,804 sales, more than 45,000 ahead of its nearest rival. Toyota Australiaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s senior executive director sales and marketing David Buttner said Camry has been sold in Australia for more than 27 years. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Camry is a car that consumers really love - and that provides enormous motivation to everyone at Toyota, especially at our manufacturing plant,â&#x20AC;? Mr Buttner said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The success of Camry is significant, it motivates all of us to continue to produce and sell a very high-quality car,â&#x20AC;? he said.

news

Get ready for the best ever Adelaide motor event GRAB a ticket and get set for the 2011 Clipsal 500 Adelaide because it is going to be the â&#x20AC;&#x153;best everâ&#x20AC;?, according to the eventâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s chief executive Mark Warren. It is a big claim but the motor sport chief has plenty of facts to support it when you consider the following. The newly crowned V8 Supercar champion James Courtney has moved to the Holden Racing Team and among his fiercest rivals will be his teammate and 2010 Clipsal 500 Adelaide winner Garth Tander. Team Vodafoneâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Jamie Whincup is furious about losing last yearâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s title and he and his team-mate Craig Lowndes â&#x20AC;&#x201C; both Clipsal 500 Adelaide winners â&#x20AC;&#x201C; on form

look like the squad to beat. Then, of course, there is the superfast Mark Winterbottom from Ford Performance Racing and his new team driver Will Davison. Both have plenty of reason to succeed in Adelaide and are the â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Blue Ovalâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;sâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; premiere outfit to take on the Holden teams. Warren also said there are to be plenty of new attractions and features at this yearâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s event. â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Brand new beautiful lawns have been laid by the Adelaide City Council in the Victoria Park section of the circuit from the Heritage Grandstand to the track edge and itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s going to be a great spot for race fans and

families alike,â&#x20AC;? he said. The area will have attractions such as the world renowned Showtime FMX motorcycle stunt displays, Holden Heaven, and the XXXX Gold Retreat. It is also a great staging area before fans visit the new Route 66 area with fantastic car displays, the Touring Car Masters paddock and then onto Armor All Murray Walkerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Extreme Machines and the Australian GT cars. The feature racing on Adelaideâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s famous city street circuit will also be outstanding, with twilight competition for the exotic Australian GT Cham-

Pu Mitsubishi to th test. 2010

pionship with competitors driving Ferrari, Lamborghini, Aston Martin, Mosler, Audi, Porsche, Lotus and Dodge Viper vehicles. Other feature racing includes Fujitsu V8 Supercars, Touring Car Masters, V8 Utes, Aussie Racing Cars, and Formula Ford open-wheelers. The Jim Beam Tracksounds concerts on circuit every night are free to Clipsal 500 Adelaide ticket holders and mean the event is a full music festival as well. The line-up has SBS TVâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s highly popular show Rockwiz and acts such as Gyroscope, Dead Letter Circus, Children Collide, Mondo Rock, Leo Sayer, Uncanny XMen, Pseudo

Echo, The Chantoozies, Doobie Brothers, The Sweet and Rogues Gallery, featuring Swanee and the Brewster Brothers. Add to that beachwear and fashion parades, family areas, and carnival rides and it is no wonder the Clipsal 500 Adelaide is Australiaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s largest domestic motor sport carnival. The event will be held from March 17 to 20. For tickets, phone Ticketek on 132 849 or book online at www.ticketek.com.au Visit the event web site www.clipsal500.com.au for further information. â&#x2013; If you would like to win free tickets to the big event, see next weekâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Riverland Weekly to find out how.

CHARLIE’S SPORTS GOSS WITH GRAHAM CHARLTON

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

Time for admin support for our sports organisations ■ Nearly 20 years ago two Riverland men considered starting a sports administration/consultancy business to assist any clubs or even associations that may have required such services. An informal survey around the Riverland brought little response from any prospective clients and, in fact, the only nibble was from one of our largest organisations where the time and effort involved, compared with the remuneration on offer, did not make it worth pursuing. Perhaps those two blokes were way ahead of their time? Let me puff my way on to my soapbox to expound on one of my favorite subjects. Repeatedly I hear the view that a lack of players available to some teams or sports sees them struggling. I believe more of the problem rests with a lack of volunteers today to make sport happen. There are numerous examples of sports going okay because they have people available for official positions, to organise and to coach at both junior and senior levels. At the same time, there are others that are finding it tough because they do not have those

people resources available. clubs in Sunraysia that had been at least equal importance and Is there a need, then, for a in strife administration/secrewarrants an extension of that sports administration body to tarial wise. thinking? arrive in our midst via either a Eventually the Football Perhaps I should declare my private source or ideally with Federation of Victoria took an hand here, albeit at the risk of government (at some level or interest and a full-time, paid reopening the old pessimist or another) taking up the reins? administrator is now in position realist debate.

from Adelaide, so pretty much locally, it was only a matter of getting out and playing. Unfortunately, not many of our sports receive such support from their governing body. So perhaps, a Riverland sports administration business is feasible? In fact, in the right hands, if set up by private people, it could well develop into a worthwhile operation or at least a profitable sideline to an existing business. I can hear immediately “what about conflicting interests?” You would anticipate any such organisation, whether conducted as a private or government entity, would be totally professional in its activities. Actually, in referring to conflicting interest issues, there have always been such claims over time so a degree of independence possibly has a place. And, of course, each sporting body would retain its decision makers by way of a constitutionally elected committee. In the end, it is really a matter of how important to Riverland life is sport and recreation? I am biased, of course, and only thinking aloud with my pen.

Prior’s cheating opportunity

Floral spectacular gets plucking competitive

■ IT IS as official as it can be. The Berri Resort Hotel Petal Plucking Championship, to be held as part of the Riverland Floral Spectacular next month, is a sport. Why? Because the man behind the event and floral show manager John Menzel has declared it so. The Riverland Petal Plucking Championship is set for the Berri Town Hall at 6pm, Wednesday, March 16, and is thought to be a first for Australia, perhaps the world. Contestants will have to pluck individual petals from large dahlias, with the winner to be the person that plucks the most in one minute. Nothing will be left to chance. Overseas visitors from England and USA, who will be here for the

dahlia section at the spectacular, will serve as judges for ‘The Pluck’, making sure petals are plucked individually and issuing penalties for any that are damaged. Local government , service clubs, community groups and media representatives will compete through heats and a final, so hearing I may make the interchange bench for the 5RM team and aware that some privileged people have already stolen a practice run, I got myself an invitation to the magnificent Menzel dahlia property over the weekend to inspect firsthand the flowers to be plucked. John took me to 120 plants he was growing specifically for this event.

They were all of the same type and colour and will be at the same degree of maturity by pluck time. While still beautiful blooms, they are far less compact and definitely looked more pluckable, so, if by chance a member of the 5RM team does injure a finger or two between now and March 16, I may consider getting off the pine and stepping up to the plate. I can see this being a titanic contest as people strive to be the inaugural Berri Resort Hotel Riverland Petal Plucking Champion. Of course, the Riverland Floral Spectacular coincides with the Berri centenary this year and is in aid of a worthy cause, the Royal Flying Doctor Service.

■ ENGLAND’S wicketkeeper Matt Prior should be thankful that the seemingly endless player strife at the St Kilda Football Club and the much publicised comeback of Ian Thorpe to top swimming, took all of the media’s attention away from his recent disgraceful action in trying to have Australia’s Mitchell Johnson given out bowled in game six of the ODI series. Why else would he be let off the hook? Remember how the various reporters jumped all over Phil Hughes, despite him immediately indicating he was unsure whether he had snared one of those half volley type catches in the Test matches, with Sir Ian Botham even labelling him an out and out cheat? Prior’s effort played the Hughes incident on the break. Sure it appeared the ball flicked the bail but it did not dislodge until the Pommie keeper moved his gloves forward several inches and made sure a freakish bowled dismissal looked to have occurred - with the bail falling in front of the stumps, would you believe? Some have said he was only messing about and up until that point, that could have been the case. But the excitement on his face as he pointed to the bail on the deck and his running down the pitch to celebrate with bowler and team-mates was no joke. Stupid man, with cameras at every angle, could only have been trying to con the umpires. While the commentators seemed to agree the incident “did

■ Matt Prior. not look too good”, only former Australian Ian Healy suggested that Botham, following his attack on Hughes, “would probably want to have Prior banned from the England side for life”. Healy followed the line in the final game in Perth after the strong wind removed the bails when he suggested “Prior must be around the place again”. His fellow commentators remained mute on the subject. Perhaps they are on Sir Ian’s invitation list, as he apparently sponsors the Australian restaurant trade… I have watched cricket for over 50 years and sure there would have been many similar incidents over that time, certainly before the scrutiny of today’s tv coverage. But I doubt that there have been many worse than Mr Prior’s out and out classic.

Hope for cricket carnival’s return

■ IS THERE a ray of hope for the return to the annual Murray Districts Cricket Carnival that, at its peak, used to involve teams from Riverland, Pinnaroo and Border, Mid Murray and Murray Lands? That competition used to be unique, played over two weekends in round robin format in A, B and junior grades and admired and envied in other country zones in this state, and indeed far beyond that. It was not only noted for its red hot competition between four even associations but for zonal, association, administrative and social benefits. The first weekend involved one round of matches and the second went Saturday – Sunday with a huge presentation function held on the final evening with players, officials and their families gathering for the occasion. The Murray Districts Zone often held a form of annual general meeting at the event. Now, a hastily arranged competition last Sunday, at Karoonda, involving teams from Murray Towns (Karoonda and neighbours), Pinnaroo and Border and Mid Murray, has resulted in some discussion on a possible return to the days of an annual Murray Districts Carnival. I understand two competitive matches were played with both Pinnaroo and Border and Murray Towns defeating Mid Murray. A Murray Districts Carnival of old, perhaps with a modified structure? It is probably a distant vision but there is at least a light at the end of the tunnel. By the way, in the Mid Murray Association there was a rare occurrence in the Morgan versus Cadell game when Jacqui Wood, lined up for Morgan to help with team numbers. Jacqui, 21, a former Cadell school girl, is now at Morgan and is the partner of Max Baddack, who starred in a win by his club in the game by scoring 22 and capturing 5/9. Jacqui was one not out when teammate Nick Black let her down by getting himself run out by a brilliant direct hit from Cadell’s Chris Willoughby. Looking for previous examples of the fairer sex helping their men folk make up the numbers in MM, present day Cadell stalwart Gloria Schutz played for the club come six years ago when she “made a comeback after 33 years”.

You can’t keep a good Denis down

■ YOU just cannot keep a good man down. Last week I had what has been an annual telephone call from Denis Hann, former editor of the Loxton News and one of the stalwarts behind the successful Loxton Nippy’s Gift Athletics Carnival since its inception. After his customary greeting, Denis went on to say something like, “ I am in hospital with papers scattered all over my bed as I try to help organise this year’s athletics meeting.” While not his normal self and obviously struggling a bit, he assured me that we had another athletics meeting coming up on Saturday, February 26 under lights at the Loxton Oval that would boast some of Australia’s top male and female runners plus some fine local talent on display in an action packed program. Of course, the event always coincides with the annual Loxton Mardi Gras. We wish Denis a speedy recovery.

Busy time for local basketballers

■ IT HAS certainly been a busy period for our basketballers. Firstly, we had nine junior teams make their annual trip to Gawler for the Starplex Carnival. Seven reached grand finals, resulting in five titles including a 25-22 win in the under 16 boy’s division two grand final against Barossa. Riverland defeated Mildura 36-26 in under 14 girls 2 and against Southern Tigers in under 14 Boys 3, Riverland won 35-31. Riverland also defeated Mildura 33-8 in under 12 boys 2 and in an all Riverland affair in under 12 girls 2, our number one team won 25-10 against number two. Around the same, the Riverland had a record number of representatives in SA teams com-

peting in junior tournaments in Adelaide. Injury to key players Mark Albury and Port Macquarie.

Then last weekend, under 16 and 18 boys and girls teams entered a strong tournament at Whyalla for the first time involving country teams, many including state players. The under 16 boys lost the grand final narrowly to Port Pirie, the under 16 girls just missed the finals by losing to Eastern Hills by one point, and under 18 boys lost a quarter final to Strathalbyn. Juniors will now prepare for their state championships in Adelaide next month, with the under 14 and 18 boys and girls heading down on one occasion and under 12 and 16 boys and girls on another.

Yachties enjoy Bonney water ■ THERE were a number of family crews, husband and wife, fathers, brothers and sisters amongst others put together at random for last weekend’s annual EB Farmer race at Lake Bonney Yacht Club. The event honours the first commodore at the club and the aim is to have a race for a different class each year. Out of their own boats for the occasion, skippers and crews were challenged by being put into the club’s fleet of pacer yachts. Good conditions

made sailing a bit easier, however, and favoured the smaller monohulls in an event which proved very competitive over the two hour journey. In the end, Pacer 7, with John Eshman and his crew Stephen Jericho onboard, won the race ahead of Kirsten and Steve Thomas on Pacer 2 and Jean Holdernesse skippering Pacer 3. The popular sail training sessions will recommence at 10am this Saturday and will be held each weekend until the beginning of May.

State basketball trial for Tyson

■ From Page 40

“I love the game, play it all the time and to go to Tasmania to represent the SA Country side would be great.” Hoffmann said he has changed his approach to his fitness plan in the past 12 months. “I’ve done probably 20 personal trainings for three hours a day,” he said. Hoffmann’s mother Suzanne said her son is 100 per cent dedicated to the sport. “He plays division one men and under 18 Supercats and, in the winter last year, he played for (Adelaide outfit) Eastern Mavericks,” she said. “We’d travel down every weekend for about four to five months, he just loves playing the game.” Hoffmann hopes to one day reach the ulti-

mate goal in basketball, with a career in the NBA with his favourite team Miami Heat. “To make it there would be awesome,” he said. “First, I have to make the (state country) team, though.” Hoffmann said he had a lot of people to thank for the opportunity to represent the SA Country side. “I’d really like to thank mum, Les Lange and Ben McCulloch,” he said. “Pretty much all of my coaches who have helped me get to where I am today.” Another Riverlander to have a shot at going to Tasmania will be Berri’s Ellee Eleftheriadis. The 16 year old has been in fine scoring form this season and remains a pivotal force as the Berri Steamers side steam towards the finals.

■ TRIAL: Loxton’s Tyson Hoffmann is one of two Riverlanders, the other being multi-talented Ellee Eleftheriadis, who this weekend will be playing for the state country under 18 basketball squads hoping to cement one of the final 10 places in each team to play in the national championships.

Hat-trick of swim titles to Berri

BERRI has won the Riverland Swimming Association Shield for 2010-11 in the final meet of the season, defeating Renmark in its own pool to record a hat-trick of titles. Renmark had a 20 point lead over Berri early on and with several trifectas to its tally, looked set to swim to victory, still ahead after the freestyle events. However, a Berri turnaround, which saw it win eight of the 12 butterfly races, meant it snatched the lead. From there, Berri charged to victory, winning four of the five backstroke and breaststroke events to finish with a score of 320, ahead of Renmark on 240. Meanwhile, also on Friday night, Waikerie hosted Loxton but the home pool advantage did not help. Loxton won 221 to 199, despite Waikerie having seven more swimmers.

WOMEN’S BOWLS GRAND FINALS

Barmera wins title

By CALLUM TRIFONOFF

A ONE shot loss has rarely proved as critical as that which was attained by Sheila Lockwood’s rink in Barmera’s women’s division one pennants bowls 56-50 grand final win over Berri last Friday. Lockwood skippered her rink back from the brink of a massive defeat to help Barmera to its first title in nine years. With her rink the last left on the green, Lockwood’s three trailed 4-22 with Marg Cooper seemingly leading Berri to another premiership success. However, Barmera won 18 out of the next 19 shots to

close the gap to a 22-23 loss and assure the Lakesiders of the premiership. Earlier, Betty Jaeschke’s rink easily defeated Janet Grosser’s three 22-12 to give Barmera its sole rink win, as Berri’s Kerry Treloar defeated Gloria Burns 15-12. Meanwhile, Lyrup took out the division two title, defeating Loxton Red 69-45 at Renmark.

Entertainment WHATâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;S

By CALLUM TRIFONOFF WORKING with a bunch of screaming women would be a difficult proposition but for the Sydney Hotshots, it is an everyday occurrence. The well-known Sydney Hotshots will be performing for one night only at the Renmark Hotel later this month and front-man Paul Reynolds is looking forward to returning to the Riverland. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We havenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t been up for a couple of years,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I know the area, we always have a cracking time when weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re there.â&#x20AC;? Paul is one of three Hotshots who have performed continuously with the group since its formation fifteen years ago. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We like to give the girls new faces, so we rotate a lot of the guys,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s around 12 guys weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re going to rotate this year.â&#x20AC;? The Hotshots are expected to pull a large crowd to the Renmark Hotel and Paul said the biggest audience the group has previously performed in front of was around 400 on the Gold Coast. The Hotshots have been described as unique compared to similar performing shows. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Our show consists of a little bit of everything,â&#x20AC;? Paul said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It starts with all the guys on stage doing one of our routines.â&#x20AC;? These routines have seen a different look to the Hotshots and Paul said the groupâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Scottish act was a real winner. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It was a bit of a laugh, everyone enjoyed it,â&#x20AC;? he said. Tickets for the February 26 show are available from the Renmark Hotel for $25.

AFTER a short hiatus, Riverland Life FMâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Friday night drive time program The Filter is back. Hosted by Life FMâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Jason Evans and the Riverland Weeklyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Rob McLean, The Filter is a smooth way to end the working week. The pair have tightened up the program this year and will be taking a more conversational approach to the news and views program. Jason is delighted to have the program, which kicks off at 5.15 each Friday afternoon, back on the air. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s good to have Rob back in the studio with me, we love filtering through the weekâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s news and sharing our thoughts with the listeners,â&#x20AC;?

he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Friday night is a great time of the week for a refreshing look at the weekâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s news events.â&#x20AC;?

eryoneâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s talking about, from local issues, rising rivers and national news, to sport and those funny little stories that make you laugh,â&#x20AC;? Rob said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Although, as much as Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m a massive cricket fan, I promise you, we will not be discussing Shane Warneâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s love life!â&#x20AC;? While Warne is clearly off the programâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s agenda, Evans said Robâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Jurassic Classic will definitely be back again this year. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s got weird taste in music has Rob but weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll let him have another shot at programming some tunes and rein him in when required,â&#x20AC;? Jason laughed. To listen to The Filter, tune your dial to Life FM on 100.7 every Friday afternoon from 5.15.

We discuss the issues everyoneâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s talking about.

The program debuted last year and has developed a core audience, which Jason and Rob hope will increase. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We discuss the issues ev-

THE Riverlandâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s annual Loxton Gift athletics carnival is attracting near record entries for the annual event. The carnival, which features the second richest athletics event in the state, will be held at the Loxton Oval on Saturday, February 26. Organisers have confirmed that four former Loxton Gift winners, two Bay Sheffield champions and a Stawell Gift runner-up, will all be competing for the rich prize. The womenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s event is also attracting a stellar field, further confirming the giftâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s high quality reputation. Among the confirmed entrants for the menâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s event are 2010 winner Ryan Rossouw, who has not raced this season, dual winner Brad Letton (2003 and 2006), 2004 champion

William Bowie and the evergreen Ben Koschade (2008). Currrent Bay Sheffield champion 17 year old Jordan Caldow will head to the Riverland for his first shot at the Loxton event, while former local and 2003 Bay Sheffield winner Todd Bateman will also compete, along with 2010 Stawell Gift runner-up Dale Woodhams. Among the womenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s competitors will be double winner Amy Robb (2005/2007), 2009 winner Brigid Connolly and strong competitors Megan Letton, Tamara Dartnell and Lucy Buckley. The event will again be commentated on by Terry McAuliffe, who will also MC a Calcutta Dinner at the Loxton Hotel the night prior to the carnival.
