Local government body calls for extension of...

VITAL DROUGHT FUNDING

By BRAD PERRY

have thought it was a time to withdraw that service under those circumstances,” Mr Lewis said. “EC was about drought but it was also about communities in crisis. “At the end of the day, we still have communities under extreme stress, carrying the burden of debt.” In a letter addressed to Agriculture Minister Michael O’Brien and Minister for Families Jennifer Rankine, the local government body wrote it was concerned about the impact of funding being ceased for drought services including the drought taskforce, the

support and provision of drought co-ordinators, men and women in communities programs, Rural Financial Counselling Services, the withdrawal of front desk services from Families SA offices in Berri and Murray Bridge and the loss of 44 Families SA counsellors across South Australia. The FaB (Family and Business) Mentors Program is another drought provided service to the region, which ended on Monday.

CONCERNS are being held for growers accessing drought support with the State Government set to end a raft of services and vital funding programs. The State Government’s Drought Support program, which includes financial counselling, is to end June 30, despite the Riverland being declared an area living in exceptional circumstances. This means the end of not just drought funding but a variety of support programs. The Murray and Mallee Local Govern-

ment Association (MMLGA) wrote to the State Government on Tuesday with concerns about the drought program ceasing. Regional Development Australia Murraylands and Riverland chief executive Brenton Lewis, who raised the matter to the MMLGA, said it was “unpalatable” that drought services would be cut at such a crucial time. “I would have thought, logically, if you have an EC declared area, you have an area that requires service delivery both in financial counselling, general counselling and support for that community and I wouldn’t

THE recently completed cereal harvest was certainly one to remember and not just because of the bumper crop. Upon delivery of their product, farmers from across the state were greeted by long queues and varying assessments of their grains, leading to much frustration among people who could see the benefits of their hard work being flushed down the gurgler. The State Government’s review of the grain harvest will hopefully provide some solutions to the issue, which had a dramatic impact upon South Australia’s export dollars. The government is often accused of being citycentric but the grains industry is a powerful body and one it will ignore at its own peril. Workable and consistent solutions must be arrived at. In the same vein, it might be time the government implemented an investigation into the wine industry and its treatment of growers. Each crush, we hear of shady dealings and varying prices for grapes of similar qualities and unfair demands upon growers from wineries. These continual breaches of fair practice cannot be ignored any longer and must be acted upon. It has been happening for far too long and our growers deserve much better.

Animals around the world desperately need your help.

Concern over funding void ■ From Page 1 Murray and Mallee Local Government Association president Leon Stasinowsky said taking away vital services from the community after irrigators have had a tough year is irresponsible. “There are people out there who are going to need help, probably more so now than before because all of their savings and debt have gone up to a maximum and they’ve got the banks breathing down their necks,” he said. “They’ve got nothing to pay it off with because of the circumstances out of their control and they are still not going to get any income. “A lot of them, because they’ve put all their money in to buy extra

water and extra sprays to try and get their grapes through, they are more out of pocket than what they normally would be. “We still feel these other (drought) services should be extended as well because there is certainly people out there, if they go off of those, they’ve got nowhere to go.” Mr Stasinowsky said the MMLGA will lobby the State Government to reinstate drought services. “It is no fault of the growers, they’ve done everything right, the majority of them, it might be the first time they’ve ever taken it and now they can’t have it,” he said. A PIRSA spokesperson said despite many drought services being wound down, there are many options to help Riverland growers.

“The Country Health community counsellors and the position of regional co-ordinator are still in place but will cease on June 30, 2011,” the spokesperson said. “People and businesses with financial concerns are still able to contact the Rural Financial Counselling Service SA for assistance. “Those with concerns about their mental health or well-being are encouraged to contact their local health professional. “The State Government’s focus is now turning from emergency drought support to what is required to build South Australia’s longterm preparedness and resilience by assisting farmers to better manage through dry seasons by adopting more effective planning.”

Committee vows to help rectify record harvest problems By BRAD PERRY AS MANY Riverland and Mallee grain farmers begin seeding for the next season, a State Government parliamentary committee visited the region over the past two days, assessing the challenges arising from last year’s record harvest. The Grain Handling Select committee visited grain storage sites and held meetings with farmers in Pinnaroo, on Tuesday, and Loxton, yesterday. Committee chairperson Geoff Brock said grain classification and processing times have been issues raised by many farmers. “A major concern that is coming up is about the classification and the non-availability if requested to use the falling numbers machine,” he said. “There has also been some concerns in the waiting times, the lines.” Submissions will be collated by the committee before an interim report is written and presented to parliament later this year. “If there is any obstacles, any issues or constraints, we want to be able to try and address those issues,” Mr Brock said. Member for Chaffey and select committee member Tim Whetstone said the committee was able to witness the disrepair of the Loxton to Pinnaroo road, which was frequented by trucks during the harvest. “It’s been noted by all members of the committee just how

bad the Loxton to Pinnaroo road is and that’s something we’d like to focus on too because it’s been an ongoing issue for a while now,” he said. “I think this committee might put a recommendation in that they look at some funding to have that road put in a better state of health because it’s not only bad for the equipment travelling on it, it’s also bad for produce.” Mr Whetstone agreed that grain classification is certainly a problem which is often being raised. “I think growers who have done it tough for a number of years with cereal production, there was an opportunity there for them this year to capitalise on a bumper crop and a lot of them have felt harshly dealt with considering they weren’t given the falling numbers machine,” he said. “I think there needs to be a lot of issues with the disclosure of grain in storage for market purposes. “If people are given the opportunity and they’ve all got a standard machine classifying their grain, there is no question but when you have the human eye cast over a grain sample, there does tend to be variation.” The committee is made up of Mr Brock, Mr Whetstone, Agriculture Shadow Minister Adrian Pederick, Parliamentary Secretary to the Minister for Transport, Energy and Infrastructure Leon Bignell and Member for Light Tony Piccolo.

There has also been some concerns in the waiting times

Leaky stadium needs a fix By BRAD PERRY SPORTING clubs in Loxton are calling for action to repair the town’s ailing stadium in an overhaul set to cost millions of dollars. The Loxton Show and Recreation Centre and Sporting Precinct User Group met recently to discuss the condition of facilities, particularly the Loxton stadium which has significant leaks and asbestos in the roof. More than 15 representatives covering almost every sport in the district attended the meeting, telling the Loxton Waikerie Council that a ‘band-aid’ solution was not the answer. Riverland Be Active advisory committee chairman Mark Ward said the major concern was the disrepair of the 36-year-old stadium, which needs urgent maintenance or replacement. “We really do need to have some sort of action

because at the moment, the availability of the basketball and netball inside is restricted when it rains, because the amount of water that gets on the court is very dangerous,” Mr Ward said. “We’re either going to have to do some short term band-aid fixing, or we are going to have re-roof it. “(The group) prefer less of the band-aid treatment and more of the structural upgrade and they even suggested the total removal and replacement. “The trouble is, we looked at the removal of asbestos and that was going to cost a ball park figure of around nd a quarter of a million dollars.” A working group has been formed from the meeting and representatives from each sporting group and the show committee are compiling a list of demands and requirements for facilities to be col-

It is understood tomorrow night’s first round of netball, to be hosted at Loxton, could be moved if rain intervenes. Plans for a merger of facilities between Loxton North and Loxton sporting organisations previously mooted are not totally off the table, according to Mr Ward. “At the moment we have some facilities that are reasonably good everywhere in our communities and they feel they can maintain what they have but, in the long term, I think we are going to have to look at it more closely, not so much amalgamations and that type of stuff, but just better utilisation of our facilities,” he said.

Locals urged not to forget Anzac Day at Easter time...

Assault investigated

As students remember the sacrifices of many

AN ASSAULT on a 76 year old Berri man is being investigated by Riverland police. Police said the assault occurred at around 4pm on Tuesday while the man was outside his Nitschke Street home. It is alleged he was approached and shouted at by a man, unknown to him, and then grabbed by the collar and threatened. Police said the suspect is clean shaven, in his late 20s or early 30s of unknown ethnicity. He is about 5â&#x20AC;&#x2122;10, of medium build with straight shoulder length hair and a fringe.

By CALLUM TRIFONOFF LOCAL RSL members are urging people to ensure the significance of Anzac Day is not forgotten amidst the upcoming Easter long weekend. Schools of the Berri Barmera Council took part in an Anzac Day march yesterday with local veteran groups, ensuring they take part in commemorations before holidays start tomorrow. Led by National Service Association president Peter Luker, the students and veterans marched from the RSL clubrooms to the memorial gates at Wade Street, where a service took place. Korean and South East Asia Riverland sub-branch member David Curyer said it is important the students learn about the Anzac Day tradition. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The kids should know the sacrifices the diggers and serviceman of the previous wars made,â&#x20AC;? Mr Curyer said. With Anzac Day being held on Easter Monday, Mr Curyer said attendances at dawn services could drop. â&#x20AC;&#x153;(Easter) probably wonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t take the thought off Anzac Day but it might drop the attendances (at services) because some people might go away,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;This way, having the march earlier, before the schools break up for the holidays, we can enforce (the Anzac tradition).â&#x20AC;? Mr Luker said it is important to pass down the Anzac tradition to the next generation. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s great to have (the students) involved,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re all getting old and we wonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t last forever, so it is important that they know.â&#x20AC;? Among the students marching were Monash Primary School student Hayley Koina who had her first taste of an Anzac march. â&#x20AC;&#x153;(The march) is giving us an opportunity to remember people who have died in the war,â&#x20AC;? Hayley said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m really into Anzac Day so I would take part in the march again.â&#x20AC;?

Low act deflates Easter campaign By CALLUM TRIFONOFF AN ACT of crime has left Berri Lions Club members shocked after the wheels on their catering van were stolen. Lions Club president Alan Dand last week went to the prepare it to cater at the club’s Driver Reviver rest stop during the Easter holidays and found its wheels stolen. The theft of the tyres, which will cost about $1000 to replace, leaves the club’s involvement in the Driver Reviver program in doubt. “We’ll be lucky if we get to do the Driver Reviver this year,” Mr Dand said. “The chances of getting the van painted and the

wheels fixed in time are not high.” The stolen tyres (all four plus a spare) were brand new and were part of a project to refurbish the van. “It’s a low life act, just as we get to the end of doing up the van, this happens,” Mr Dand said. “We’ve been going for about 10 to 15 years in this van, it’s very annoying.” Mr Dand said it was not the first time thieves had targeted the club. “We’ve been robbed before, money was stolen from inside the club’s fridge,” he said. “I just don’t understand why they would target a club like us.”

MALLEE households will be inspected after it was discovered a number of properties are illegally connected to the local council’s community waste water management schemes. The Southern Mallee Council began assessing homes in Lameroo and Pinnaroo this week in a bid to identify unauthorised connections to the local wastewater system. The problem was discovered following recent heavy rains. “Houses in both Lameroo and Pinnaroo have what are called community waste water management schemes, so in other words, their wastewater from their house, which includes showers, toilet, kitchen and laundry, goes into a

system that is designed only for wastewater,” Council chief executive officer Rod Ralph said. “What we’ve established is that some people are now plumbing, or have in the past,

Ballet duo delight By CALLUM TRIFONOFF TWO local, gifted and very young ballerinas have been given the chance of a lifetime, being accepted into the SA Childrenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Ballet Company. Cobdogla girls KristyAnn Corner, 11, and Aniesha Alderson, 12, are passionate about ballet and currently dance at the Rosie Clark School of Ballet and Tap. The two girls were selected following an audition in front of well known ballet teacher Beverley Waters, who is on the SA Childrenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Ballet Company board. Kristy-Annâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s mother Mandy said the girls have a fantastic opportunity ahead of them. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I was just ecstatic when I found out,â&#x20AC;? she said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It is a great opportunity for them, especially if they want to go a little bit

Riverland bracing for a fruit fly Easter FRUIT growing regions in South Australia are bracing for one of the worst seasons of fruit fly outbreaks in recent memory. Tri State Fruit Fly Committee chairman Andrew Green said the influx of travellers into the state for Easter is prompting fruit fly concerns, especially given recent outbreaks interstate. â&#x20AC;&#x153;While (the previous) outbreaks have been well contained, the risk of further outbreaks will be heightened this Easter when the number of travellers will substantially increase,â&#x20AC;? Mr Green said. Mr Green said travellers can reduce the risk of spreading fruit fly this Easter, by ensuring they do not bring fresh fruit or vegetables into the Fruit Fly Exclusion Zone, which includes the Riverland.

â&#x20AC;&#x153;There have been outbreaks (of fruit fly) in Perth and Adelaide,â&#x20AC;? Mr Green said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re being given a ride by travellers who are crossing state borders and quarantine areas with prohibited fresh produce.â&#x20AC;? According to Mr Green, Australia is seeing one of the worst ever outbreaks in Queensland fruit fly but figures are expected to rise massively during the Easter period. Heavy fines apply to those caught carrying prohibited fruits or vegetables. Mr Green urged people to be extra vigilant and aware of the restrictions when travelling within the Fruit Fly Exclusion Zone this Easter. For more information, phone 0418 804 368.

Restorative justice pioneer speaks THE Riverland will be excited to hear that this yearâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Law Week program will include a visit to the Riverland by the Australian director of Real Justice Terry Oâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;Connell. An Order of Australia recipient, Terry has trained persons throughout the world in the area of restorative justice: the process by which offenders are encouraged to make amends to the community for their behaviour. Terry is also credited with developing the family conference system currently utilised in the South Australian criminal justice system. Family conferences involve a dialogue between young offenders, their family, police and victims, with a view to preventing future offending. Terry has also been the

subject of an episode of the ABCâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Australian Story program (and has featured prominently in others), and his approach has been credited for sometimes surprising reductions in re-offending â&#x20AC;&#x201C; the Nowra District in New South Wales experienced an almost 50 per cent drop in crime one year after implementing his ideas. Terry will be presenting an interactive workshop on Monday, May 9, at the Berri Resort Hotel.

Former Riverland girl releases her first book....

And her enthusiasm is simply infectious By ROB McLEAN IF ENTHUSIASM is infectious, then former Barmera girl Belinda Whateley is highly contagious. The childcare specialist, now based in Perth, has created her own educational motivational business and has just recently released her first book and is absolutely bubbling over with enthusiasm regarding her new career direction. The book, Magic Moments, is a self proclaimed guide to creating mindful relationships and wise practice with the soon to be implemented national early years learning framework. For the uninitiated, the EYLF is part of an overhaul of the Australian education program and is currently in its phasing in stage.

I remind them that life is about the little things and why they got into childcare.

Belinda was well known in the Riverland for her often colourful costumes, similar to kids television entertainers Hi 5, whilst working at Loxtonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Woodleigh childcare centre. Now she is transferring her passion to her peers. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I make people feel good about what they do,â&#x20AC;?

It is during these visits, where she is often introduced to beaming audiences as Belinda Magic Moments, that she

She reminds workers that childcare should not just be about schedules and regimentation. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s about letting kids be free and get into their natural environment and exploring like we used to do,â&#x20AC;? Belinda said.

Up, up and away as school celebrates

Pumpkin entries getting bigger CADELL’S giant pumpkin competition is flourishing, with 60 entries already entered for the Easter event. The Murray River Giant Pumpkin Competition will be judged from 2pm on Easter Saturday at the Cadell Oval. ‘’Each year, Cadell’s Harvest Festival becomes even more popular and their unique competitions attract many families across the region,” Mid Murray Council Mayor Dave Burgess said.

By CALLUM TRIFONOFF THIS year marks Berri Primary School’s 100th anniversary and the school recently celebrated the milestone in great fashion, on Friday. The school had all the more reason to celebrate with the official opening of classrooms refurbished under the Federal Government BER scheme. Berri principal Judith Howie said the buildings have had a big impact since first being used at the start of the year. “I think it gives (the students) a learning opportunity,” Mrs Howie said. To mark the milestone and the opening of the new buildings, Berri primary students took part in a balloon launch. Riverland educational regional district director Brian Featherston said the school is almost unrecognisable from when he was principal from 2000 to 2004. “The buildings look really modernised,” Mr Featherston said. “They can provide more interactive learning and education can be tailored better.” Berri Barmera Council Mayor Peter Hunt helped the school unveil a new plaque to mark the refurbished buildings.

Renmark Avenue’s single lane a no go By BRAD PERRY PLANS to reduce Renmark Avenue to a single lane in the near future have been scrapped due to funding and viability concerns. Under Renmark Paringa Council’s urban design framework, it was proposed the traffic lanes in Renmark between Fifteenth Street and the intersection of Ral Ral and Murray Avenue could be reduced. However, Renmark Paringa Council Mayor Neil Martinson said the proposal is unaffordable and the one lane proposal will not go to public consultation. “The cost involved in doing the work would be quite significant, so we haven’t proceeded along with that at this stage,” he said. “Even the plans that we have prepared, we are not even going to put them out for public consultation be-

cause there is just no point in the community getting concerned or worried about it, if it’s not going to happen. “I just don’t think it’s going to tick enough boxes.” Mr Martinson said council is not concerned about the thousands of dollars spent to draw up unused designs and studies done as part of the framework. “The money was well spent and it gives us an idea of what we can look at in the future,” he said. “Funding is the biggest issue and it will be put on the backburner at this stage until other funds maybe become available.” Mr Martinson also said concern was expressed by both council and the community about heavy traffic using Renmark’s roads. “If we reduce the lane there we would have to look at what we are going to do for trucks,” he said.

“To upgrade the bypass off Tarcoola Street, that’s where the big bucks are and at this stage there is no way council can afford that sort of money.” Council is looking at upgrading the toilet facilities on Renmark Avenue and may investigate adding such things as more eating areas in the area, originally proposed in the urban design framework. “It all depends on funding and budget constraints,” Mr Martinson said. “My thoughts are that the toilets could be relocated back towards the bus stop area, which would open it up a bit and that would lend itself to do other stuff. “At this stage there is no concept, no design at all and we’ll need to sit down and start looking at those sort of things to get a budget costing involved to get the money allocated.”

Grower says Chile grapes, no problem A RIVERLAND table grape grower believes the local market will not be affected by the importation of table grapes from Chile. Reportedly 5500 cases of white table grapes are expected to reach Australia next week and Barmera grower David Agg said it will not worry local markets, with many finished picking several

weeks ago. “They wouldn’t be bringing them in if there wasn’t a market for them,” Mr Agg said. It is understood some table grapes from Chile will arrive next week, with more expected to arrive next month. It is also understood the selling price for the grapes will be up to $100 per box.

Meanwhile, Mr Agg, who has 34 acres of table grapes and eight acres of winegrapes said he will look to expand table grape vines for next season, despite this year’s poor harvest. “I turned an acre and a half to flamed seedless and I am going to do another acre and a half this year,” Mr Agg said.

Autumn fox baiting underway

Comp winners

■ CRAFTY: Foxes continue to be active, as evidenced in this photograph taken at Gluepot Reserve, and baiting is recommended to give native birds a chance to breed.

Broadband subsidies ending soon! Internode’s Wireless DSL networks provide metro-comparable broadband services in several regional areas where ADSL broadband services are not available.

You could save up to $1,299 until May 6, 2011. Time is running out, but you can still apply for an Australian Broadband Guarantee (ABG) subsidised service. If you’re eligible* you could get: • Free standard Wireless DSL broadband connection -- $1,199 saving • 50% OFF a fully-conﬁgured broadband router -- you pay only $99 (a $200 value)

The Department of Environment and Natural Resources (DENR) is recommending farmers undertake autumn fox baiting to protect native wildlife as well as their livestock. Chris Grant from DENR recommends fox baiting in the next few weeks to give our native birds a chance to breed in what could be a successful season for them. “Fox baiting is important to protect ground-nesting birds such as malleefowl and bush stonecurlew,” Mr Grant said. “The autumn fox baiting program reduces fox numbers at a critical time of year, when ground dwelling birds are breeding and chicks are leaving the nest. “It is vitally important to support ground dwelling birds by reducing predation during nesting time, particularly in seasons, such as this, when there has been exceptionally good rainfall.” DENR is working on parks and with individual landholders, Landcare Groups and Local Action Planning Groups to deliver the baiting program across the region with baiting taking place as far north as Calperum Station, and at Gerard Aboriginal Trust at Winkie, Waikerie and Paringa, through to Sedan, Forster and Brookfield Conservation Park in the east, along with Mantung, Billiatt and Parrakie areas, Narrung and through the areas of Ferries McDonald, Monarto and Ettrick. Surveys performed by DENR over summer have shown malleefowl have been breeding successfully throughout the region, especially so in Mantung and Maggea. Regional ecologist Ellen

Environment & Heritage MATTERS

l Ryan-Colton reported, “we recorded 122 successful hatchings from the 17 mounds we monitored, with clutch sizes up to 41 eggs, being amongst the highest ever recorded.” Strategic fox baiting twice a year during autumn and spring is the best practice. Autumn baiting destroys foxes moving into the area, while spring baiting destroys existing adults before they breed. For more information or advice on fox baiting, contact the SA MDB NRM Board offices in Berri (8582 4477) or Murray Bridge (8532 1432). For more information on ground-dwelling birds contact the DENR office on 8595 2111.

Even if you already have a satellite service, you may still qualify for a subsidised upgrade to a Wireless DSL service.

It is a fact that nearly every teenager I know has a mobile phone. Phones also allow you to accessorise like crazy. You can get a variety of brands, plans, colours, and extras. Modern phones have the choice of slide-out keyboards. There is also the new iphone 4. Depending on your plan, you can call, text and even surf on the internet with your phone. Modern technology is very complicated but ever so clever. It seems so weird that my mum got her first mobile phone a year ago and I have just got mine at 13 years of age! Kids today live for these luxuries. Where would the average teen be without their Ipod, or Nintendo DS? Soon there will be a 3DS, a 3D console that needs no glasses. It is amazing what we can

think of. Some older people think, “Well, what happened to the days where kids got outdoors and had some fun?” Good question. It’s fascinating to think what life would like without all of this advanced technology. I remember my nan telling me about the first tvs coming out, those fuzzy black-andwhite ones. She said someone on her street had one and how everyone used to come around and stare at the small screen. Now compare that to today. I could, right now, go and purchase an enormous TV with a flatscreen, if I had the money. We seem to be getting better at this every generation! Where will the world of technology take us next? It is scary to think.

GARDENING WITH ANDREW WALLADGE

ADVERTISING FEATURE

BELLA LAVENDER

Melaleuca beauty By ANDREW WALLADGE HONEY myrtles, particularly the bracelet honey myrtle and other very large melaleuca, can strike fear into some householders that have close encounters with them. The sheer size and spread of them can be daunting next to a house. This speed of growth can startle even the most jaded of gardeners. As if that wasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t enough, the root systems on them can seemingly penetrate the slightest crack in plumbing to make enough mess to frustrate most plumbers. Incidentally, the bracelet honey myrtle (melaleuca armillaris) was often recommended during the 1960s and 1970s as a fast growing screen plant. It did the job and kept growing, often to eight metres plus, to become a backyard monster. The good news is that there are wonderful alternatives in the over 200 species of this generally very hardy group of plants. As I have pointed out, some melaleuca are simply too big for the average garden in town and unless you have plenty of room, they are best avoided altogether. Different melaleuca grow over most of the different condi-

tions in Australia. One grows above the snow line and the inland paperbark grows in ephemeral water courses in the dry pastoral country in the north of South Australia. Most species are known for their ability to attract nectar and insect eating birds, many flowering over summer for a long period. The flowers themselves are not unlike mini eucalypt flowers without the bud covering (bud cap) arranged either in bottle brush like flowers and some in â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;pom pomsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; at the ends of the stems. Others like the claw flower have quite unusual shapes that are worth a close look. Flower colour is often in the pinks, mauves and purples but white, red orange and paler yellow are common. Some species are dazzling at flowering both in quantity and intensity of colour. Culturally, the tougher species need very little attention once past their first couple of summers. A light prune each

year after flowering is about it. Many will be happy with monthly watering and maybe a feed in early spring if you are so inclined. Some good examples of these tough little beauties would include; M. coccinea goldfieldâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s bottlebrush (scarlet and around 2m), M. diosmifolia (green flowers and dwarf forms the best), M. elliptica granite honey myrtle (red with the most wonderful bark), M. incana nana Velvet cushion (small yellow flowers and usually less than 1m), M. â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Little Nessyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; (purple flowers and very dense foliage up to 2m) M. pentgona (soft pink flowers in profusion, around 2m), M. pulchella claw flower (1m high with unusual pink flowers), M. spathulata (1m high pink flowers, tough as), M. thymifolia (lots of different forms under one metre, mostly pink, purple and white, lacy flowers). Think small melaleuca for any garden for beautiful, tough shrubs in almost any soil and situation.

Here’s cheers to a musical feast

IVERLANDERS will be wined, dined and entertained when an outdoor opera and theatre afternoon is held at Winkie next month. The performance of two well known sopranos and a pianist will take place at Bella Lavender on May 7 and organisers believe the event will give people the opportunity to enjoy a top class experience. The event is being hosted by Bella Lavender and Chellodene Wines. Bella Lavender owner Mario Centofanti said the Riverland needs different events such as this. “The whole idea in doing the event was to lighten the Riverland up a bit,” he said. “We need to let people know we can do these things. “We encourage people to come and experience something unique in the Riverland.” The $100 a head show limited to 100 tickets, includes performances from state opera singers Cherie Boogart and Deb Caddy, as well as pianist Nerissa Pearce. Guests will receive a glass of wine from Kingston-On-Murray business Chellodene Wines upon arrival and a light Mediterranean lunch. Some of the delectable options in the lunch include fresh tomato and basil bruschetta, cheesy tomato mussels and fresh dates stuffed with feta and wrapped in prosciutto.

“We’re hoping to just bring something new to the area,” Josie said. Beginning at 1pm, the opera and theatre will include two intervals and will finish around 5pm, when patrons are encouraged to stay for a glass of wine. Mr Centofanti expects the event to be very popular and hopes its success will be the start of a number of similar shows, including a jazz themed evening. With a limited number of tickets expected to sell fast, organisers are urging people to book today by ringing 8583 1184 or 0413510916.

All welcome Chellodene Wines owner Josie Lamattina said the event is open to all ages and encourages the Riverland to embrace the opera and theatre experience.

HE Golden Elephant Indian Restaurant in Berri is becoming more popular by the minute for its excellent cuisine and authentic Indian culture. It is developing a strong reputation and offers plenty, giving locals ‘a little bit of India’ with every visit to the restaurant. The Golden Elephant Indian Restaurant is owned by Arjhan Singh, who has previous experience in many Indian restaurants, and whose ancestors were one of the first Indian families to move to Australia. When you step inside, you are taken away to the wonders of the country, with Indian movies, music and culture all around the restaurant. Arjhan has had vast experience in the restaurant business and the Arkan family has owned roughly 13 businesses, all with an Indian theme. Arjhan said The Golden Elephant specialises in northern Punjabi dishes. “It’s a broad spectrum of the whole part of the subcontinent of India,” he said. “We go from seafood, through to chicken, beef, lamb, breads and vegetarian dishes. “It’s basically an emphasis on fresh food, no preservatives, no additives, it’s all just natural and healthy foods.” Arjhan said the facilities at The Golden Elephant are roomy and comfortable, all with a slice of India. “We have the ‘you order, then we cook’ basis and there is a lounge for waiting

for take-aways,” he said. “We have Indian videos, it gives you the feel and aspect of the culture.” Before taking over The Golden Elephant, Arjhan had plenty of experience within the restaurant business. Cooking since the age of six, Arjhan is also the restaurant’s cook. He did his chef’s certificate at TAFE and his apprenticeship at Asian Feast. Other restaurants Arjhan has worked in include Curried Away, Asian Feast, Curry

When W hen you come here, you’re going to have an experience of India, not just Indian food

and Kebab King, Tandoori Taj and An Indian Affair. “I’ve been through the different aspects of it,” he said. Arjhan called on people to come and experience a little bit of India in the Riverland. “We can speak the (Indian) language fluently and the way we source the flour in the nan bread, it’s the same wheat used in India,” he said. “We get local produce, local lamb, beef and chicken, we try to build the local

community up. “When you come here, you’re going to have an experience of India, not just Indian food, but the tablecloths, the cutlery, everything.” Arjhan said locals have already established their favourite dishes in the short time since opening. Among the popular dishes would be chicken tikka masala and paradise chicken. Arjhan said the paradise chicken is The Golden Elephant’s own unique dish. “It’s a sweet, satay coconut dish,” he said. “You can’t get it anywhere else, it’s one of our house specialties.” Another one of the house specialties is the beef akbari. “The nan breads are popular as well, and so is the rice dish kashamiri pulaw,” Arjhan said. “That is a stir fry with capsicums, apples, sultanas, peas, onions and garlics and it is very popular.” The staff at The Golden Elephant also have a few of their own favourite meals. The Arkan family have a previous history in the Riverland, with Arjhan attending Renmark North Primary School. If you are looking for that Riverland, Indian connection, look no further than The Golden Elephant Indian Restaurant. It is situated at 1 Worman Street, Berri, and can make take-away, delivery or dine in meals. Phone 8582 2818.

Lorraine Fielke: Experienced and qualified breast consultant LOXTONâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;S Lorraine Fielke is an experienced breast prosthesis consultant and fitter. She also holds current certificates, with appropriate qualifications, for carrying out this very important work for ladies who have had a mastectomy or lumpectomy due to breast cancer. Having had breast cancer herself, and a mastectomy some years ago, Lorraine has taken the cancer journey and so has sympathy and empathy for clients requiring her services. Lorraine originally trained in bra fitting in 1992 when she was a co-owner of Viviennes Lingerie in Loxton and Renmark. She undertakes refresher courses with the Amoena company who makes and sells the superior quality breast prosthesis (or forms) in Australia.

clients fill these in so they receive the rebate they are entitled to. Medicare currently pays up to $400 for a new prosthesis per breast, every two years, as do private health funds and Veterans Affairs. Currently each client has to pay for her prosthesis up front, with Medicare putting the rebate into their nominated bank account within 10 days. With access to an excellent range of breast forms for any type of surgery or if one breast is noticeably smaller than the other, Lorraine will fit you out and make you look uniform no matter what your problem. Bras and bathers are also available and all have pockets sewn into the garment on both sides, making them useable for anyone, whether wearing a breast form or not. The bras are comfortable and Lorraine will check that your new bra is correct for you. To date, Medicare do not pay a rebate for bras. Bra straps slipping? Shirt front gaping?

WITH Easter just around the corner, chocolate lovers will be licking their lips. You would be hard pressed to find a person who does not have chocolate of some sort at the top of their favourite sweetsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; list. Here are some fun facts about chocolate: â&#x2013; Chocolate was first used over 2500 years ago, originating in Central America. The Mayan civilisation considered cacao to be a divine gift and so it was held in high regard. It was used ceremoniously a and sometimes as a form of c currency. The name cacao is a Maya w word meaning â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;god foodâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;, w which after being introduced t Europe in the 16th Century, to f formed the basis of the Latin n name for the cacao tree, â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;theo-

Melons Rockmelon THE sweet rounded fruit is at its best value and flavour in the early part of the year. The melonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s colour is orange with a peachy type fresh and a very distinct smell. An excellent source of vitamin C, 100 grams of rockmelon will give you a whole dayâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s supply. Rockmelon is also a good source of beta carotene, which is converted to vitamin A and the more orange the flesh, the higher level it has. To find the perfect rockmelon, look for a beige to golden coloured skin with a strong sweet smell. Keeping rockmelons requires storing them at room temperature if they are whole but in the refrigerator if cut.

HONEYDEW is a winter melon with either white or yellow skin. White skin honeydew is actually sweeter, with more natural sugar than watermelon. A ripe and rich green colour is also the sweetest point to eat the melon. The honeydew is particularly good for boosting vitamin C levels and also has potassium. If you are looking for a juicy melon, feel for one that is heavy in size. The melon can be used in both sweet and savoury dishes including salads and desserts. Fresh honeydew and rockmelon are available at the Riverland Farmerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Markets, which is on every Saturday morning in Berri.

28 • Riverland Weekly – Thursday April 14, 2011

Tough and thoughtful to the end It’s hard to document the life of a latter-day pioneer with mere words. In the case of the late Denny Hansen, of Cal Lal, it’s almost impossible. The Hansens are well known to Riverland people and if ever there was a more welcoming family in the bush, Alan Erskine, from the Riverland Weekly’s sister newspaper the Mildura Weekly, is yet to meet them. Honoured to give the eulogy at her recent funeral service, this is his tribute...

over her beautiful ferns and begonias, her precious roses and special bulbs, and proudly show them off to visitors. Over the past 30 years, Denny fought - and beat several illnesses, some of them requiring her to spend quite a deal of time in hospital and sometimes requiring surgical procedures. However, she always retained a positive outlook on life and no-one ever heard her complain. Denny was brought up in the Catholic religion, and although she may not have attended church as often as she wanted to, especially in latter years, her faith kept her strong and she never went to bed without first saying her prayers. Yes, she enjoyed her cigarettes too, right up until her last day at home Rhumullina on her beloved Kulcurna, as the ambulance officers got her ready for the ride to the Renmark Hospital, she asked Paul to light up a cigarette for her.

when German-born upholsterer Hans Hansen came to Cal Lal to work in 1954. After a brief romance they were married at the Wentworth Catholic Church in January, 1955. This marriage produced two children, Belinda in November, 1955, and Paul in April, 1960. Unfortunately, the marriage didn’t last, and Denny stayed on at Kulcurna, while Hans moved to Adelaide. Belinda and Paul have many fond memories of growing up at Rhumullina homestead on Kulcurna Station. They particularly remember always being clean, neat and tidy and there was always plenty of fresh, good food on the Hansen table. In those days Kulcurna was a large, bustling and busy property, virtually three properties in one, embracing more than 100,000 acres. Denny didn’t hesitate to roll up the shirt-sleeves and pitch in with a helping hand whenever and wherever it

It was the same for the 40 minute flight to Adelaide, where she was admitted to the Royal Adelaide Hospital, and operated on. During all this time, Denny was comforted by the fact that either Belinda or Paul, and at times both of her beloved children, were by her side. It was also a great comfort for Denny to have Paul’s new fiancee Jenny Richards, of Renmark, helping out. In the aftermath of Denny’s bad fall, doctors warned the family that their mother might not make it through the operation but she did. At one stage, doctors said that Denny was so weak, and had been through so much, that she wouldn’t last the night. Such was her will and inner strength that Denny managed another three days before, on March 22, she passed away. It was her express wish, written into her will, that she not be laid to rest in the Cal Lal Cemetery. Still thinking of others, there was no way she was putting them through the ordeal of digging into the hard limestone-based soil at Cal Lal. Denny Hansen was a doting mother, a loyal friend, and a tough, courageous, resilient and much loved and respected latter-day female pioneer of the Australian bush, who kept a diary that tells an amazing story almost to the end of her lengthy life.

Popular Corolla has power and efficiency 4x4 with Danny Hanrahan

ONLINE! riverlandweekly.com.au

YNAMIC acceleration, fuel efficiency, and environmental consideration are all hallmarks of the Dual VVT-i engine found under the hood of every Corolla. Look beyond the Corolla’s powerful form and you’ll find an engine to match. Featuring a revolutionary 100kW 1.8L engine, combine this with a six speed manual or four-speed automatic transmission and you are firmly at the helm of a responsive, efficient and exhilarating motoring experience. While the Ultima goes one better, adopting a 2.0L engine (automatic transmission only) with 102kW and an eight per cent improvement in peak torque, the Ultima makes quick work of hill-climbing and overtaking. Corolla’s manual transmission has been engineered to maximise performance and fuel economy, while the automatic transmission has the ability to ‘sense’ hills, reducing the number of shifts needed when accelerating uphill, as well as optimising engine braking when travelling back down. This combined with Corolla’s electric power-assisted steering and responsive suspension system, delivers superior handling and stability, as well as excellent fuel efficiency. The Corolla achieves fuel economy of 7.3 litres/100km with manual transmission, while the Levin ZR automatic and Ultima achieve 7.5 litres/100km and 7.7

litres/100km respectively. In addition to its fuel efficiency, Corolla’s Dual VVT-i engine helps reduce CO2 and exhaust emissions, meeting the stringent Euro IV emission standards. It is all part of how Corolla is made with the environment in mind.

Manufacturing processes are constantly being developed and reviewed to ensure waste and energy usage are kept to a minimum over the life of the car, from the moment it starts to be built, to the day it is ultimately recycled.

Strong sales sees Toyota slash the price of Prius

MAZDA Australia has revealed new details for its upcoming 2012 BT-50, this time offering a look at which engines will power the new utility, the Motor Report said. Headlining the range will be a 3.2 litre five-cylinder turbo-diesel engine producing 147kW and 470Nm of torque, mirroring the figures of its platform stablemate, the new 2012 Ford Ranger. The 3.2 litre ‘MZ-CD’ diesel engine’s power figures represent a 24 per cent increase in torque and a 28 per cent increase in output over the 3.0 litre engine powering the current BT-50. Fuel consumption for the new engine is not known but Mazda said better figures than the outgoing engine are expected.

It is also $5000 less expensive than the $39,990 Hybrid Camry Luxury model, which used to be a direct competitor from a price perspective. The price reduction has been heavily influenced by the arrival of the Lexus CT 200h, which uses a similar powertrain set-up to the Prius.

Tavern Talk

Wet lakes deny speed freaks their fun By DANNY HANRAHAN

HE DLR Speed Week was completely washed out. However, out of the rain, Australiaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s next great 4WD adventure may just have washed up on our shores. All during Friday I had the computer on watching the BOM radar at Woomera. Every bit of bloody cloud in Australia seemed to gather over Lake Gairdner and drop rain. The word came through on Saturday morning; the Dry Lake Racers, 2011, Speed Week was officially cancelled. What a bummer, I had to unpack the Landrover and sulk for the rest of the weekend. Better still, I decided I should dispose of my packed refreshments before they went off. In hindsight, I was only going up as a spectator and to take a few pics, so did not quite feel the pain of others. Groups from all over Oz had been making their way across the country after preparing all year for this one special week. They had put in untold hours and vast sums of money, only to turn around half way there and head home for another year. Not to mention the mob who had already been at the lake for up to a week or longer, preparing equipment and food etc. All they could do was stand in the shed, out of the continuous rain, and watch the lake slowly fill up. The biggest dilemma was what to do with all the booze purchased for the week. Maybe it wasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t all bad. Anyway, the trouble with racing

â&#x2013; WET: Motorsport enthusiasts (above, left) take time out to inspect the water filled Lake Eyre, which is usually a drag racing mecca at this time of the year due to its dryness, while (above, right) water continues to fill the lake. Photos: DANNY HANRAHAN things with wheels on a lake is just that; sometimes it is a lake, and full of water. Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m fairly new to this game but I havenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t noticed any racing vehicles with snorkels. Over the years, the DLR has searched far and wide for alternative locations to race. Stories abound around the campfire of untold expeditions out of Queensland, explorers loading camels with XXXX and being forced to say goodbye to loved ones for weeks at a time. One such expedition, which was stranded for days in the Bedourie Pub after the camels had passed away (XXXX will do that to you), heard about this mysterious claypan, perhaps the biggest in the world. The legend of the Bilpa Morea Claypan was born. DLR members Savro and Bridgey swear that when you stand on the verandah of the Bedourie Pub on a still, moonlit night, you can hear the distant rumble of an old V8. Others prefer to take this comment with a grain of salt.

YD H

All they could do was stand in the shed, out of the continuous rain, and watch.

0^='^

G R R R L V J J HG

All jokes aside, this claypan may just be the answer to the many dilemmas the DLR faces, and God knows there have been a few over the years. There are not many dead flat surfaces, nine miles long suitable to race at over 200mph on. The question has been asked, the idea planted and hundreds of members are asking, Bilpa Morea Claypan, where the bloody hell is that? Only time will tell if they get to find out.

Pu Mitsubishi to th test.

Holiday fun

AN EXTRA splash of colour was added to the PS Industry’s 100th anniversary celebrations recently when the Renmark Patchwork and Quilters and the Evening Star Quilters a quilt. The boat, its paddle, steering wheel and its trips are depicted on the quilt which was presented to Renmark Paringa Council Mayor Neil Martinson. It shows the Industry building locks along our river and clearing snags to keep river traffic flowing. It also portrays the work of the volunteers who bring the past to life again and their work in the running of the paddleboat and collecting of wood for her steam engine. A council grant enabled seven ladies working about 760 to 800 hours to complete this task. The quilt will be at the Renmark Council Chambers until the end of April.

Roly’s award RENMARK’S Roly Telfer, candidate for the seat of Chaffey at the 2010 state election, was honoured at an SA Country Labor Association conference in Victor Harbor recently. Mr Telfer received an award for outstanding service to Country Labor at the function, which included a dinner to commemorate the late Terry Roberts, the Legislative Councillor from Millicent and Minister for Aboriginal Affairs and Reconciliation in South Australia from 2002 until 2006. Over 70 members attended the conference to discuss policies that affect country areas. The main theme of the conference was Sea and Tree Change - the New Scenario for Building Country Communities and Infrastructure.

Headspace holds health awareness program SEXUAL health was the focus for a group of women from headspace’s young parenting program recently. The group attended the Riverland Central Plaza and gave out information about contraception and conducted competitions and activities for about 60 people throughout the day. Riverland headspace young parenting programs consist of two groups - Manic Monday and Talking Realities.

Both groups meet once per week where young parents aged 22 and under come together to participate in education and leisure activities. The programs offer free transport, crèche and lunch these additional services making it easier for young people to come along.

CHARLIE’S SPORTS GOSS WITH GRAHAM CHARLTON

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

Lee’s biggest ride ■ “THE biggest event I have ridden in is definitely the Tour of the Riverland.” That is a big wrap for our annual local cycling classic, as it comes from current Riverland Cycling Club champion Lee Stevens, who has ridden in some big races over his relatively short career. He won gold in the 2010 State Masters Track Titles for omnium, match sprint, keirin and 1000 metre time trial and bronze in the 2010 Elite State Track Titles. Overall, he has won the Riverland Championship on three occasions; 2005, 2009 and 2010. As far as the Tour of the Riverland is concerned, he has competed on five occasions with his best results a first and fastest Riverland rider performance in the main event on Saturday last year and a fourth placing in the race the following day. Lee grew up in the South East, around Coonawarra and Penola, then spent some time at Clarendon in the Adelaide Hills. When he finished school, he moved to Adelaide where he stayed for some eight years before, with his wife, Janelle, he shifted to the Riverland. It was while living in the city that he first took up cycling, albeit in unusual circumstances. “I had actually lost my li-

cence,” he said. “Taxis were too expensive and I do not like public transport, so I bought a secondhand racing bike. “This became my mode of transport and, even when I eventually got my licence back, I chose to continue riding instead. “Cycling grew on me more and more and I used to go riding through the Adelaide Hills. “When I moved up to Renmark I didn’t get out as much on the bike but when

I was on a ride one day, John Danvers rode up next to me. “We got chatting and the next thing, I was out for my first race. “That was six years ago and I have not stopped since.” Lee feels that Riverland cycling is certainly getting stronger, with more riders involved in both Tuesday night criteriums and Sunday racing. Returning to the Tour of the Riverland, he explains that it is the biggest race in the state behind the Tour Down Under

with its prize pool and the number of entries involved. “It attracts a lot of people, including riders and their families, to the Riverland,” he said. “People stay in accommodation, not just in Berri, but in other towns as well.” There were 250 riders at last year’s Tour of the Riverland weekend and now the 2011 event is only a month or so away. Keep an eye out for our local champion, Lee Stevens, he will be there.

Footy’s rumour mill on the mark ■ UNDERSTANDABLY, the early kick off to our 2011 football season has meant a reduced time for the usual ‘main street’ rumours about the prospects of the various clubs to really get up and about. However, it already seems there were some solid foundations to some rumblings that did emerge out of Waikerie’s McCoy Street and Loxton’s East Terrace, in particular. “In 2011 the Magpies will be back to their premiership winning best and the Panthers will be the big improvers,” we heard. When they defeated Loxton by 23 points last Saturday at Waikerie, the home side confirmed that its much heralded recruits including Michael Bratton, Daniel Smith and Steven Braun will round off an already talented squad nicely for another title assault. On the other hand, the Tigers also showed that better days may be ahead, with Tim Inkster an immediate success. Several players looked to be caught out by the early start, while East Terrace is still predicting another addition or two at Tigerland. Loxton North has also been keeping the RFL clearance officer busy pre-season and former Demon Geordie Franks and livewire Jamie Ferguson were amongst the newcomers that now give Craig Wooldridge’s young group some genuine depth. The Panthers beat a Berri team that scarcely resembled its 2010 premiership line-up by 27 points. The Demons will take time to settle but with blokes like Adam Beauchamp, Peter Safralidis and Jake Langdon still in residence, the heartbeat of their centenary triumph is still in place. Barmera-Monash had to dig deep to hold off a much improved Renmark at the Lakeside and win by 14 points. Fifteen year old Tyson Lindsay made a sensational debut for the Roos and will perhaps supply that X-factor to Mark Wilden’s familiar set-up. The Rovers have thrown their hats back into the ring and when you look at their list of ‘ins’, returnees Ryan Bennett, Peter Dempsey and Paul Burne included, plus the likes of the Wakefield boys from Kangarilla to give some aid to regulars of note, skipper Trevor Thorpe, Nathan Farr, Russell Menz and company, that was probably always on the cards and did not warrant a big Renmark Avenue rumour. Independent football started too and I now know why my neighbour Darren Van Der Woude has not been to the fence lately for one of our footy chats. He has possibly joined the ‘Secret Service’, quietly working away to get some solid recruits. Moorook Kingston, reportedly struggling for numbers off-season, defeated neighbours Wunkar in a surprise result. Former colts medal winner Matt Raison returned full-time to be a matchwinner. It is early days, I know, but Lyrup beating Ramco by 78 points and East Murray, Cobdogla, by 108 points, is a concern. Paringa had to work hard to shake off BSR by 16 points in the other game.

Bowls not just a summer sport ■ PERHAPS with tongue in cheek, an old bowler said to me at the end of the recent 201011 pennant season, “bowls really starts up now with all of the clubs having their carnivals”. Indeed, there is a lot of truth in that. With our usually ideal weather and terrific facilities, bowls is certainly not just a summer sport, as between the end of this last pennant season and 2011-12 opening days next September, there are events scheduled around the various clubs for every month. Carnivals certainly bring a lot of people into the region and, I believe, a perfect example of what can be done is the pairs carnival held for the fourth year at Renmark RSL recently. The Riverside Estate Classic

Pairs Tournament has been an interesting development from day one. Despite early trepidation about entries, the emergence of a major sponsor in Riverside Estate and the decision to proceed with the event to, in 2010-11, a capacity 38 teams, have seen entry numbers increase significantly. Bowlers came from as far away as Moonta and Naracoorte in SA, from Victoria and NSW to play for some of the biggest prize money in the sport in this state, $4000. With the full house sign going up early and some late entries even having to be turned away, there are now thoughts of fine tuning the draw to make room for 48 teams next year. The really optimistic are even

talking 60 teams down the track but that would need some incredible time management. Undoubtedly, the appeal of the event includes the fact it is played on natural grass greens and this challenges any suggestions the tournament be extended to other clubs. The Renmark RSL Club is the only one in the Riverland that continues to maintain three grass greens, so it seems likely the classic will stand alone at the venue as a prestige event. The winners of the 2010-11 major prize money were West Lakes pair Phil Merchant and Jerry Ramesa, who along with runners-up, Renmark RSL’s Malcolm Inglis and David Rice, were the only teams to win all six games over the two days. Merchant’s enthusiasm for

Renmark is very obvious. “For a start,” he said, “it is just so great to sit down outside your room each morning and enjoy the tranquility of the river as it flows by – beautiful”. This was Phil’s second appearance at the event, finishing third in its first year. Back to the prize money, John Van Der Wyst and David Bollenhagen, also from the host club, took third place, followed by Bill and Julie Dopson (Renmark) and Michael Campbell and Craig Mills (Modbury). Loxton pair Terry Thurston and Trevor Schulz shared the action as winners on the first day. Apparently, the carnival was a fantastic event that went off like clockwork, with a lot of plaudits heaped on chief organiser Mirco DeCol and his backup team.

Barmera starts in style ■ THE Riverland soccer team has a bye for the first round of the 2011 Federation Cup competition, so by the time it travels to Adelaide for the first game on May 21, a lot of the weaker sides will have been eliminated and the going could be tough. However, under coach Kevin Barber, who took Barmera Dev Estate to the local premiership last season, there have been three try out/training sessions already and officials also had an opportunity to assess the form of players at last Sunday’s RSA Pre-season Cup at the Steve Poutakidis Sports Grounds at Renmark.

The cup has been reintroduced in response to requests from clubs for some competitive hit outs prior to the start of the home and away program on May 1. Sunday’s competition involved teams from Barmera, Berri, Loxton and Renmark, with Barmera winning the round robin event, but only after calling on the determination and belief that gave it the 2010 premiership. After trailing at half time 1-2 in its first two matches, it fought back for a victory against Berri 3-2 and a draw against Renmark 3-3. Another interesting result was Renmark, perhaps

unveiling the resolve it has towards the approaching season, scoring a 3-1 win over 2010 Top Four Cup champion Berri. Barmera and Renmark both finished on two wins and a draw, with Barmera taking the cup on goal difference. Off the field over summer has been a busy time for the RSA executive committee as it continues to adjust to losing its dedicated president Steve Poutakidis, who passed away last year. Bill Bucon continues as the new president. “We have been busy planning for the new season and looking at ways to grow

the game in the Riverland,” he said. “We have helped to organise a come and try session at Waikerie recently and also a training session for local clubs on the new online player registration system.” The RSA will also be conducting a free, hour long, referee’s assistant (linesman’s) course at 1pm this Saturday in Renmark. “The aim of the training is to give people the skills and confidence to run the line, mainly in the kids’ games,” Mr Bucon said. Everyone is welcome, telephone Bill (0411 411 599) to register.

Adrian Pipe will continue as secretary, Mark Constas as treasurer and Louie Avlonitis as association registrar and referees co-ordinator. Senior men’s grade in 2011 looks likely to have five teams, two from Barmera and one each from Berri, Loxton and Renmark. The coaches at Barmera are Kevin Barber Senior (Dev Estate) and Theo Gaitantzis (Gold), Nick Spinks leaves Renmark’s playing ranks to take over the top role at his former club Berri, Nick Sotiroulis continues at Renmark and Mark Kershaw at Loxton. The open girls will

Everyone can be active after school ■ “IT IS ALL about encouraging youngsters at all levels and abilities to try a range of sports and activities and is also about having fun, making friends, learning new skills and, most importantly, becoming active.” Those were the words of the Australian Sports Commission Active After School Community Program’s regional co-ordinator Kate McKenzie after nearly 30 children attended a Come and Try Winter Sport/Join a Club Day at the Waikerie Recreation Centre. The event was conducted by AASC in conjunction with Riverland Be Active and gave those attending the chance to try Little Athletics, soccer, football, hockey and basketball in a fun, safe and friendly environment with trained com-

munity coaches. McKenzie explained that these free sessions not only provide an opportunity for youngsters to become active and to enjoy a healthy lifestyle but that they also established essential links with local community providers and sporting clubs. “We hope by introducing the children to a range of different sports, they will be encouraged to join a club and to play sport on a regular basis,” she added. The Loxton Lutheran School also took part in the program. The AASC program is currently conducted in 3270 schools and out of hours care services across Australia. For further information, go to ausport.gov. au/aasc or telephone Kate McKenzie (0437 700 433).

comprise a team from each club. Meanwhile, significant change will occur in under 13s following the successful trial of forming two divisions after all teams had met once in 2010. The aim is to create more even matches and so give the new younger players the chance to get more involved in the game and to enjoy it more, hopefully leading them to stay in the sport. Also, more competitive matches from week to week could bring improved results for RSA junior teams at state and country championships.

Baseball stars ■ SOME weeks ago we reported on a group of four young local baseballers travelling to Adelaide to play for Port Adelaide juniors each weekend. Harry Bantolas, who organised the venture, is proud that two of the lads, Taso Bantolas and Austin Karpany, ended up playing for the premiership team in the under 12 competition. The title is awarded to the club finishing on top of the table at the end of the home and away season and Port Adelaide won all but one of its 18 matches. Playing in the under 14 competition, the two other Riverland boys, Paul Spilios and Kenny Karpany, played in a grand final and finished runners-up, losing 14-22 in a hard fought and high standard encounter. The travelling group also made it to the club’s annual presentation function and Harry was introduced to a number of officials and sponsors appreciative of the effort to get the four youngsters to the city to play each week. Port Adelaide is anxious to have them all return in 2011-12.

THE Loxton United Soccer Club is heading for exciting times and is calling for players to join the progressive club as it enjoys a rise in fortunes. “This year it’s about how many games we can win,” according to club president Mark Kershaw. “This year is about being competitive all of the time.” Kershaw is confident the club can play in the season ending Top Four Cup for the first time, which would be a massive achievement for the

club which has been on the brink of collapse at various times in the past decade. If the Riverland Soccer Association is to be at its optimum and continue to grow the game in the region, it needs a strong Loxton outfit. If you would like to play with Loxton United, whether experienced, or not, trainings take place on Wednesday nights on the Loxton number two oval, from 6pm. For further information, contact Mark Kershaw (0419 844 868).

Apart from the recruitment of Dempsey, experienced Sue Whitbourne returns, Jules Morgan is a former Oakdale player, Jen Doherty comes from Renmark and with junior talent Charlotte Richardson and Chelsea Hoare to join other youngsters already established at top level, including state under 19 player Kate McKinlay (when available), Traci-Lee has a lot to work with. Kate is currently in Brisbane with the state under 19 team for the national championships and will also play for Contax reserves in the State League from time to time. Vicki Mules will again coach Loxton North and will welcome back such key players as Renee Williams, Emma Flavel (nee Koch) and Sue George to the number one squad. Last season’s star junior Alyse Worsfold will be joined by promoted 2009/10 Riverland Junior Sports Star of the Year Tara Learhinan. Add a number of experienced players like Lisa Koehne and Karina Tschirpig and perhaps finals beckon. Waikerie will continue to nurture young talent under new playing coach Marisa Wilson, assisted by Michelle Jenke. Promoted junior Jess Smith joins Lauren Oswald, Carolyn Pearson, Erin Hamood, Maxine Lee-Morath, Amy Horner (nee Hartwig) and newcomer Ashleigh Potter, so we can expect some competitive showings from the rebuilding club. Netball has produced some titanic competitions over recent years. I can see no reason why season 2011 will be any different. As part of Friday night’s opening ceremony at 7.45pm, 2011 Murray Region Academy players and state representatives will be presented. Despite an early start to the season, Anzac Day will still be acknowledged, as usual, with a special medal presented to the best on court player from the opening game at 6pm between Berri and Barmera. This medal has been named in honour of outstanding former player and coach Margaret Lambert. The remaining A1 matches on Friday night are Renmark versus Waikerie (7.45) and Loxton North against Loxton (9.15).

The best in quality steel

n Exchange: Spanish exchange student Aida Piedron Cascón (left) with Glossop High School student Nikki Brooke during her visit to the Riverland last year. Nikki will be making a return visit later this year.

Ready to go globetrotting By CALLUM TRIFONOFF BARMERA girls Nikki and Danielle Brooke have enjoyed hosting exchange students so much, they will both embark on an exhcange themselves this year. Nikki will head to Spain in July, while older sister Danielle, currently living in Adelaide, will be jetting off to Germany. Both girls will be living with friends, who were recently in the Riverland themselves, as part of Southern Cross Exchange, Aida Piedron Cascón of Oveido, Spain, and Sarah Maiwald of Bonn, Germany. Nikki told the Riverland Weekly she is really excited to be going. “It will be a really good experience and I get to see Aida again, which will be awesome,” she said. “We’re going over to Scotland first to see family... and Aida’s hoping to also

take me around to France and England.” While a trip to Spain will be a new experience for Nikki, an overseas adventure is not. “I’ve been to Korea once before, when I was younger,” she said.

It will be a really good experience and I get to see Aida again.

Nikki is also a keen learner of the Spanish language at Glossop High School. “It’s just really fun to learn a new language,” she said. “We’ve got it next semester but I’m doing tutoring with (teacher) Miss

Carrington.” The girls’ mother Leanne said it is one of the most exciting things to happen to the girls. “Absolutely, it’s great, especially at such a young age,” Mrs Brooke said. “I’m a bit cautious about Nikki going, because she’s under age, but I’ve spoken to Aida’s father and, we took care of her and she enjoyed her stay, so I think Nikki will be in good hands. “I’ll miss them terribly but one of the joys about going overseas is that you can keep in contact through Skype, Facebook and texting.” The Brooke family will welcome Sarah back to their home next week. “Last time, she stayed for three months but wanted to extend it to five. “She couldn’t, so she said she would be back again for another exchange.”

n art star: Former Karoonda man Peter Coad is a well renowned artist, recently returning to visit the Mallee. Photo: Annette bannigan

FORMER Karoonda man Peter Coad is a world renowned artist but still manages to return home to visit the Mallee community. Coad recently attended the Karoonda Farm Fair, where his magnificent painting Winter Floodplain - Coorong was on display. The painting has been donated to the Karoonda East Murray Council for its celebration of 100 years of local government. Born in 1947, Peter spent his first 10 years in Karoonda and therefore he has a special affinity for that part of the world. After moving to Adelaide and finishing his education in 1963, he began a career in graphic arts and signwriting. Whilst employed he began painting professionally, holding his first solo exhibition in 1978 and eventually in 1996 his passion and the demand for his work saw him choose to become a full-time artist. He has hosted more than 55 solo exhibitions, has lectured on his arts overseas and was even commissioned by internationally acclaimed Australian Film Director, Rolf de Heer, to paint 14 large canvases which appear as static scenes in the award winning film The Tracker, a first in an Australian feature film. Coad’s painting is on display in the foyer at the Karoonda East Murray Council.

My advice is, 12.30 8.00 the bride must 9.00 remember she takes the 9.30 groomâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s last name, so if his surname is 1.30 8.30 10.00 giantbutt, think again 2.00 10.30 about marriage. 9.30

Lee’s biggest ride

It’s raining goalies at Renmark THE Riverland netball season starts this weekend, with the official opening at the Loxton stadium tomorrow night. Looking through the various A1 squads for 2011, it seems the season is going to be very much about ‘returnees and rookies’. Loxton, after a fairytale premiership win in 2010, will be without coach Sharona Edwards, as well as leading goalie Tess Dempsey, who has transferred to Barmera. Skye George takes over as coach, while the core of the premiership team from last season remains and Holly Buick gains promotion, with Ali Uren returning. At Renmark, coach Ann Noack enters her 10th year and after the disappointment of losing only one game in 2010, the grand final, now has a headache of a different kind – too many players to choose from. It may not be raining goals for Renmark yet but it is certainly raining goalies. There are seven of them

GRAHAM CHARLTON in all on the list. Kerri Griffiths, Amy Martinson, Amy Leesue and Helane Gartner are back, while promising juniors like Kelly Nelson and Shannon Watchman will push for promotion. Berri coach Chris Eleftheriadis will hope for a better season injury wise than last year as she continues to work with a talented young group. Kathryn Gartner, a strong mid court player is an interesting addition, while big seasons are predicted for Ellee Eleftheriadis and talented junior goalies Taylee Howard and Stephanie Sarro. There is an air of excitement if you talk to second season Barmera coach TraciLee Jones. ■ Continued Page 36
