BERRI’S SUNNY SOLUTION Council proposes major solar farm

â– TO THE FUTURE: Berri Barmera Council chief executive officer David Beaton shields his eyes from the beaming sun which shines down on the former Riverland Racing Club track (also pictured inset), where a large solar farm is being proposed.

THE largest solar farm in the Riverland, potentially costing more than $40 million dollars, has been earmarked for Berri and dependent on funding, could go ahead as early as next year.

The former Riverland Racing Club land located in Berri is the proposed site for the Berri Barmera Council to construct the large solar farm.

The council, which is working closely with Adelaide company May Brothers, has applied to the Riverland Futures Taskforce for part of the $20 million State Government money pool to fund a feasibility study into the project.

Berri Barmera Council chief executive officer David Beaton said the project would not only bring income

BRAD PERRY to council but would be another industry option for the Riverland. “The Riverland and north of Port Augusta are the best places in South Australia for solar, so we’re hopeful we might be able to influence the State and Federal government to help to fund it,� he said. “It’s just another source of income for the council but also it could easily start off another industry for the Riverland. “If we have something that proves that people can make money and it’s

not dependent on water, it’s not dependent on a few other things, then it’s another option for people in the community and another option for people to invest. “If it can work in Berri, it can work in Renmark or Loxton.�

The idea developed after May Brothers, which has worked on major wind farm projects in the Clare Valley, approached the Riverland Futures Taskforce. “They made contact with the Riverland Taskforce, so I just followed up with them afterwards about the opportunities we might have,� Mr Beaton said. ■Continued Page 4

Solar power a smart move

Welcome aboard, Mr Opinion

WHILE the debate over climate change continues with no real conclusion imminent, one thing is for certain; the sun continues to shine.

Here in the Riverland we are blessed with an abundant supply of this wonderful resource and it makes sense that we harness it to produce energy.

It is widely quoted that this region has more sunlight hours than Queensland’s premier tourist strip the Gold Coast.

Local man Andrew Caire has shown the benefits of solar farming at his Pike River property, showing strong foresight regarding the need for future energy resources and industry in the region.

If the Berri Barmera Council’s proposal gets up, not only will it provide energy to the power grid but also the local community as more jobs are created within the region.

It could also provide a breather for ratepayers in the district, who continue to question their annual council bill and will be faced with another rise this year.

Solar power is a wonderful resource and as Australians we haven’t embraced it sufficiently enough in a time when the future of resources such as oil are questionable, resulting in rising costs.

The council is seeking funding to conduct a feasibility study into the proposal, a perfect example of what the Riverland Sustainable Futures Fund can be used for.

Meanwhile, yesterday’s announcement of another $450,000 grant to a local business under the fund is fantastic news.

The fund has been much maligned for the delay in providing a dollar result for the local community, having been launched last year.

Hopefully this is just a sign of many more announcements in coming months, as for the region’s future, we need to get the ball rolling.

THE Riverland Weekly today welcomes on board our newest columnist Mr Opinion.

Mr Opinion is a long term local resident keen to ruffle some feathers but, more importantly, get you thinking.

So readers, enjoy the ride with Mr Opinion.

Mallee cautious on mine

By BRAD PERRY CHINESE company Orient Zirconic has given no guarantee the Mindarie mine will reopen.

Two representatives from the international company, which is currently determining whether it is feasible to reopen the mine under a joint venture with Australian Zircon, were present at a Murray Mallee Community Consultative Committee meeting last week.

The 20 people who attended the meeting, at the East Murray Community Centre, voiced concerns di-

rectly to the company about the mine, which closed in 2009 due to financial troubles.

Karoonda East Murray Council chief executive officer Peter Smithson, who chaired the meeting, said the local community remains cautious about the mine’s future.

“There were a number of community members present at the meeting and also some landowners that had been impacted as a result of the rehabilitation,” he said.

“Realistically, you can’t say full steam ahead but what they’ve got to do is do

“There were a couple of strand lines that weren’t rehabilitated and they still haven’t been.

“Credit to them they took that on board.” The Chinese company told those at the meeting there is no guarantee minerals from the mine will be processed at the site.

“They are going to change the way they actually mine it,” Mr Smithson said.

“They are looking at a different way of doing that and the actual wet processing plant is going to happen at the mine site but the mineral that comes out of that won’t.

At this stage, there is no

Despite her own insistence, cancer survivor Kathleen is...

No ordinary woman KATHLEEN Evans insists she is just an ordinary woman but as Saint Mary Mackillop’s second miracle, she is so much more.

The New South Wales mother of five is in the region this week following in the footseps of Saint Mary Mackillop, visiting St Catherine’s Berri on Tuesday, Our Lady of the River School yesterday and St Joseph’s School, Barmera, today.

In 1993, Mrs Evans was diagnosed with aggressive lung cancer which had spread to her glands and brain and doctors gave her no more than two months to live.

“I was diagnosed in the 90s with lung cancer and a surgeon wanted to take out one of my lungs because you can live a few years without one,” she said.

“Our youngest child...he was only 13 and that would see him through to high school.

“However, when he put me in and gave me a biopsy he found that the cancer had gone out of the lung and it was in all the glands and he got an x-ray taken of my head and it had started in the brain.

“He couldn’t operate and chemo wouldn’t have done any good because it was too aggressive and ray treatment perhaps would have given me two weeks at the other end.

“I’d already been given no more than two months to live, so that two weeks meant nothing and I decided not to have any treatment.”

REPORT BY

BRAD PERRY As Mrs Evans’ condition worsened to the point where she was bedridden and unable to perform daily tasks by herself, a friend offered her a relic; a photo of Mary Mackillop with a piece of the nun’s clothing attached.

“She gave me this relic and there was a very big group that said prayers with me and asked Mary Mackillop to pray with us,” Mrs Evans said.

“By the time we’d finished that nine days of prayer, I was starting to feel better instead of getting worse and I just got stronger and stronger.”

Almost 10 months after the horrific news, tests revealed all of the cancer in Mrs Evans’ body had gone.

Mrs Evans’ recovery would become Mary Mackillop’s second miracle, with Australia’s first saint canonised last year.

In fact, Mrs Evans attended Mary’s rise to sainthood in Rome, where she presented the Pope with strands of the nun’s hair.

“I always say I was the most excited person over there because I took her relic up,” she said.

Today, Mrs Evans regards Saint Mary Mackillop as a close friend with whom she communicates often.

“Mary Mackillop doesn’t

guarantee it will be processed here in Australia.

“It will be shipped off to China, so that, to me, is probably a bit disconcerting because you’ve got all that infrastructure there.”

The community is generally positive about the prospect of the Mindarie mine reopening, with local employment set to benefit, according to Mr Smithson.

“I think there’s obviously the local employment opportunities that arise out of it but I would say given what’s happened in the past, (the community) are somewhat cautious,” he said.

RIVERLAND Link local phone book publisher Geoff Harris has confirmed the future of the regional callers guide is not in danger.

Telstra last week revealed it is considering discontinuing publication of the industry leading White Pages, prompting questions as to whether the local guide would follow suit.

With the uptake of the internet and iPhone, Telstra is believed to have lost faith in its own phone book but Mr Harris said there will be no following suit at Riverland Link.

“The idea of a phone book is suitable for many, not just the elderly but for some people who don’t have the internet,” he said.

“There are a lot of my clients who do not have email addresses or the internet, so taking the phone book away would not be a good idea.

“Not everyone wants to Google phone numbers.”

However, Mr Harris said finding a number from a phone book was not always as easy as finding one on the internet or on the iPhone.

“In my case, a phone book and business directory are valuable sources of information but the internet has been around for 20 years and people’s habits are changing,” he said.

“With the iPhone, you can access information on the run but having a phone book is still important for those who do not have the internet or an iPhone.

“They’re still important, not just in this region but in all others around Australia.”

Berri Barmera Council looks for new industry options

Cold weather prompts flu vaccination reminder

Heat is on for extensive Riverland solar farm

By BRAD PERRY RIVERLAND medical practices are urging the community to be immunised, following last year’s horror flu season where there was a shortage of vaccinations.

Riverland Division of General Practice chair Dr Grant Baker said there have been early signs the flu will have a big impact on the region this winter.

“We saw some early on but we haven’t seen any in the last little while,” he said.

The region battled flus last year with natural disasters delaying the delivery of extra flu vaccinations, causing the virus to spread.

“The swine flu and the inability to fly through the volcano ash were excuses used last year,” Dr Baker said.

“There was a real difficulty in getting hold of the vaccine (last year).

“We’ve (Barmera Medical Clinic) still got vaccines available, which is the same across other practices.”

Dr Baker said the immunisation season is well under way and is urging people to become vaccinated.

“If anyone has forgotten, overlooked it or haven’t got around to it, now’s the time (to get immunised) because it’s going to continue to get worse from here on in,” he said.

■ From Page 1 Mr Beaton is hopeful funding for the feasibility study will show solar energy in the Riverland is virtually an untapped market.

“There is one at Pike River but after that there is only the domestic ones,” Mr Beaton said.

“What we have applied for was the feasibility to prove how much sunlight, how much electricity would generate from modern panels, how much it costs to have a structure and whether that can be done locally and how much to connect it to the grid.

“With some support from the government, it can succeed and generate some green power and hopefully provide a bit more of an additional income for the council as well.”

Mr Beaton said council will now wait on funding to push forward with the project.

“We have to make an application to the Federal Government for funding and it’s just a matter of how long those processes take,” he said.

“I think the area is going to be big enough to do five

HOUSEHOLDERS in the Berri Barmera district face a 3.9 per cent rate rise in the next financial year.

The proposed rate rise is part of Berri Barmera Council’s long term financial plan, with the local government organisation hoping to reduce its debt within the next five years.

On average, each ratepayer will pay an extra $33 per annum for the 2011/12 financial year.

Berri Barmera Council chief executive officer David Beaton said the rise is necessary to keep funding local services.

“We’re trying to make sure we can still fund the services but we’re also making sure we reduce the amount of the deficit as well,” he said.

“It’s about making sure we are self funding in the future and

“If our operating surplus keeps going backwards, we’re not raising enough to keep our servic-

“If people want the services that they are currently getting, we’ve either got to raise the rates to keep them or decide what ones they don’t want to have.”

Council believes there will be minimal growth in the region over the next 10 years and the district’s population will remain static at 11,700 due to the downward turn in the economy and closure of significant industries.

“It is not a huge increase in the amount of services we are going to do because we can’t really afford to expand them,” Mr Beaton said.

A public meeting to discuss the council’s annual business and long term financial plans will be held on May 31 at Glossop High School Middle Campus.

He said a redeveloped Mildura Airport would allow for greater accessibility to the wider region for tourists, particularly houseboaters, and for the transport of freight to outside markets.

“In the past, this RDA would look at upgrading Renmark and Sunraysia would try and upgrade Mildura,” he said.

“However, it was made very, very clear by the Federal Government, ‘don’t come to us wanting one of everything and expect the Federal Government to fund it because it won’t happen’.

WITH an air carrier unlikely to return to the Riverland in the foreseeable future, locals may have to look east for expanded domestic and air freight services.

Regional Development Australia Murraylands and Riverland is investigating the possibility of further developing air services in the Murray Darling Basin, with the Mildura Airport the most likely beneficiary of any such proposal.

The local RDA will be working with similar organisations around the Murray Darling Basin to progress the proposal.

RDA Murraylands and Riverland chief executive Brenton Lewis said an upgrade of services in Mildura would be beneficial to the wider MDB region, including the Riverland.

“Provision of daily flights and certainly more flights of larger aircraft, are needed to grow our economy,” Mr Lewis said.

He recently travelled to Melbourne to attend a function with Biggest Loser trainer Michelle Bridges, where he enjoyed

showing off his new look to the diminutive good looker.

Mark even managed to get the fitness trainer, and the inspiration behind his weight loss, to sign the front page of the Riverland Weekly (May 5) edition on which he featured.

After camping regularly in the Riverland for almost three decades, Mr Pascoe and his wife moved to Berri 11 years ago.

Upon arrival, Mr Pascoe immediately became involved with the local community.

His love of birds saw him volunteer at Gluepot Reserve near Waikerie and Calperum Station.

“I enjoy the outdoors, I enjoy the bush and being out in the Mallee, bird atlasing and doing bird

photography,” he said.

Mr Pascoe gained employment at St Catherine’s

and, after nearly five years working at the Berri aged care facility, Mr Pascoe is ready to call it a day.

“We were always going to

“We love the Riverland.”

Mr Pascoe said he has enjoyed every minute working at the elderly home.

“It’s just one of those very pleasing jobs,” he said.

“It’s one of those feel good jobs where you help the oldies and help residents and staff. “They all say ‘thank you, thank you’, how can you feel bad about that?”

Travelling as a grey nomad is on the agenda for Mr Pascoe when he retires.

“It’s time to put the van on the back and travel a bit,” he said.

“Be one of these old grey nomads.”

Fifty years of loving memories â– CHEERS: Barmera couple Chris and Dennis Wutke have shared the highs and lows of half a century of marriage. Photo: JANE WILSON

People

Renmark Hotel

By CALLUM TRIFONOFF LOOKING back on 50 years as a married couple, Barmera’s Dennis and Chris Wutke say they wouldn’t have had their life any other way.

Celebrating the 50th anniversary of their wedding on May 6, 1961, at the Immanuel Lutheran Church, North Adelaide, Dennis and Chris said they have spent the best years of their lives together, through thick and thin. “Everybody asks how I’ve put up with him for so long,� Chris laughed. “I think it’s better to love the one you know, rather than the one you don’t. “I’ve loved him since before we were married.�

Chris said the couple is lucky to still be together after what they have been through. “In 1971, Dennis was using an electric grinder when it disintegrated,� she said. “In 1993, I was involved in a car accident and the doctors didn’t think I would survive but we’re still here together and we have been through trials and tribulations.�

Both have been involved heavily in the community since living in the region, with Dennis dedicated to local sport. “He’s very community minded,�

Chris said. “He played cricket and football for Cobdogla and Barmera Monash and he was also a goal umpire for nine years.�

Chris, herself, has been on the Riverland Country Music committee for 18 years, runs The Hall of Fame, volunteers at the Barmera Information Centre, and was this year’s Berri Barmera Citizen of the Year.

Buyer interest for historic hotel

By BRAD PERRY HIGH River Murray levels have given renewed hope of a buyer for the historic Overland Corner Hotel, which has been on the market for over two years.

With two “seriously interested� parties, one local and one from the Yorke Peninsula, currently in talks with Lin Andrews Real Estate, Overland Corner Hotel owner Andrew Mader said rising river levels have certainly created more interest in the historic building. “I think we’ve had a bit more interest,� he said. “It’s (the high river) created a whole heap of interest

from lots of different people, ranging from boaters to people who are just coming out to have a look who haven’t seen it before.�

Mr Mader said he and partner Heather Wynands will continue to live in the region if the hotel is sold. “We’ve been here for eight years and we’ve got a little daughter so it’s time to move on but we won’t leave the area,� he said.

With potential buyers looming, Mr Mader said he will not get his hopes up until a sale has been finalised. “The sooner the better,� he said. “I’ll wait ‘til I get the cash in the hand before I’ll say

it’s sold. “We’ve been down this road a few times.�

Lin Andrews Real Estate director Warren Andrews said he met for further talks with interested parties recently. “We’ve got two strong leads going on at the moment,� he said. “Everybody is loving the opportunity (of the high river), as it is bringing tourists in. “Everybody is enjoying the lifestyle on the water and it is the outdoor living that has got everybody fired up and little places on the river like the hotel have got everyone benefiting from it.�

Local man says RV park wrong

By BRAD PERRY A PLANNED recreational vehicle (RV) friendly facility in Berri is being proposed for the wrong area, according to a local critic.

The Berri Barmera Council has allocated money for an RV facility at Martin’s Bend in its 2011/2012 budget, with discussions also under way to establish an RV park in Barmera.

However, Winkie resident David Kassebaum believes Berri needs parking spots for RVs and caravans closer to the town centre.

“We’ve travelled around Australia and most towns in most places now have got RV friendly spots, especially for older people (so they) can go and do the shopping,” he said.

“If they can’t park their vans and get to easy shopping, they’ll just keep moving on until they find a town.

“It’s a long way to walk to the shops from Martin’s Bend.”

Mr Kassebaum would like to see places for ‘grey nomads’ to easily park and signage directing them to the area.

“You would only need about two (RV friendly parks) in the township,” he said.

“You don’t need that many, they are not all going

Industrial development likely for Pinnaroo

By BRAD PERRY

■ QUESTION MARK: A proposed RV parking area at Martin’s Bend in Berri needs to be closer to town according to a local critic. Photo: FILE to rush into town at once.

“You need a spot for them to park and you need it to be in central Berri, so they can actually get the feel of the community.

“They might not want to stay in the town, they might just want to do some shopping and move on but they can’t find any car parks.”

With larger car parks for vans in the town, tourists might stop and consider staying longer next time they are in the region, according to Mr Kassebaum.

Berri Barmera Council chief executive officer David Beaton said there is no room for large car parks to suit RVs or caravans in Berri’s

town centre.

“You take a place like Berri, where we are restricted in parking anyway, to block out a couple of parks and just say we’ll put it right in the middle of town, makes it very difficult for our parking anyway,” he said.

“The RV points need to be at a place where we bring them into the town, they don’t have to be right in the middle of the town.

“It’s similar in Barwell Avenue in Barmera, we’ll try and create some spots where people can park but not necessarily take up parks that are in the CBDs of those two towns because there are not enough parks there anyway.”

A PROPOSED Pinnaroo industrial development is expected to attract several large businesses to the Mallee community.

Southern Mallee Council chief executive officer Rod Ralph said one company has already put forward a proposal to invest in the new site, with room for others too.

“We’ve actually got a very early proposal of, perhaps, potentially putting sheds onto the land with a firm that manufactures sheds and actually doing a bit like you do with display homes, so people can see them and if they are interested, buy them,” he said.

Mr Ralph said council recently met with the interested business.

“We had a meeting with the developers and a builder who are assisting with the shed that is proposed for that site,” he said.

“We’re looking at some of the documentation in regards to the development application but we are keen to go ahead and we would expect things to happen fairly soon on the ground.”

The industrial complex will be a great positive for the Mallee town.

“I think it offers the opportunity for new enterprises wanting a greenfield site,” Mr Ralph said.

“There is the opportunity of a cheap buy because of the land price and the fact there is a workforce that can be housed and employment can be gained for the local district.”

Country South Australians make up just 30% of the population, yet account for 60% of people killed in road crashes. So over the coming months you can expect to see more police patrols in more places. Because country roads need safer drivers.

Future of fruit stalls under threat due to theft

By BRAD PERRY FOR years, Riverland growers have served fresh fruit to passers-by via road side stalls on an honesty system.

However, continued dishonesty, such as theft of fruit and money from stalls, has caused some growers to consider installing security systems, or shutting the stall during certain hours.

Pyap Produce’s Tim Arnold said the company has looked at installing cameras for the highway fruit stall, with a large amount of fruit already taken without payment this year.

“We’ve looked into it but we haven’t done anything yet,” he said.

“The value of fruit that gets taken over the years, it would probably pay for itself in a year.

“We’ll definitely keep an eye on it.”

Mr Arnold said he cannot believe people continue to take fruit without paying.

“It is a trust system,” he said.

“You’d really think most people are honest enough to put some money in a tin.”

The money tin at the Pyap fruit stall has been securely locked so it cannot be stolen but people continue to dishonestly take advantage of the fruit on offer.

“This year, just at the start of the season, we had a bunch of fruit taken,” Mr Arnold said.

“The first year we started, we had plenty knocked off.”

Meanwhile, the Arnold’s online citrus company Fresh Citrus Direct will begin accepting orders on Monday.

Mr Arnold said much interest has been generated since the breakthrough idea began last season and he expects local citrus to be sent all over Australia this year.

Tree thefts vexing growers CITRUS growers the Arnold family have had to deal with the rising Australian dollar, low water allocations and now stolen trees.

Last week, the family business discovered five late mandarin trees had been dug up and taken.

Pyap Produce’s Tim Arnold said the company will be forced to reach into its pocket to replace the trees.

“As it’s up near the road, they probably pulled off

the road, jumped over the fence and pinched them,” he said.

“A lot of these young ones we’ve actually grown from seed, propagated them and everything, so it’s a bit of a kick in the guts after the last couple of years as well.

“It’s a nuisance, we’ll now have to start again with those trees.

“When it gets to spring time, either (we will have to) buy some trees from a

nursery that’s got them or probably bud some more root stocks that we’ve got and grow them out again.”

Florence was born at Warracknabeal but, with her parents and family, moved

to Panitya.

She was later matron at Jamestown, Port Pirie and Pinnaroo hospitals before enlisting for service.

Florence was in the last group to evacuate from Singapore on the Vyner Brook.

It was vastly overcrowded and with little in the way of effective defences.

The Vyner Brook was attacked in the Bangka Strait and sank within half an hour.

Many drowned or were killed by the returning Japanese planes. â– Continued Next Page

â– From Previous Page Survivors, including Florence, staggered ashore in various stages of exhaustion, having spent anywhere from eight to 65 hours in the water, where they met Japanese land troops.

The men were taken inland and killed and the women were forced to walk into the sea and were shot.

Only one nurse survived, Sister Vivian Bullwinkel.

Although wounded, she feigned death until she felt certain the Japanese had left the beach.

Vivian gave herself up, was taken POW and met up with other nurses and after the war was able to relate the tragic story to the world.

This worthy project has been supported with a grant from the Department of Veteran’s Affairs.

Printing museum audio visual THE initial unit for the audio visuals has arrived, with two more to come in the near future.

The screen is touch activated and has informa-

tion regarding the whole printing process, possibly one of the best and most comprehensive descriptions in the world.

Dave Smids (Wildfire Designs) and Karen George (Historically Speaking) are still working on some material to be included in the presentation.

This project includes information previously gathered by Karen in an extensive interview with Rob Wilson.

It covers the various stages in the printing process and illustrations from a wide variety of sources.

The audio-visual has been supported through a History SA Museum accreditation grant program.

Grain display audio NEVILLE Clark, of Disk-Edits, has put together a neat package of audio, with images to complement the visitor experience when viewing the grain collection.

Plenty to see at mallee museum T

HERE is plenty to see at the Mallee Tourist and Heritage Centre, which has a variety of displays that provide an educational and historical picture of life in a rural community.

The Letterpress Printing Museum is set up as a typical regional printing office of the letterpress era and has working printing presses, equipment and type.

The Gum Family Collection consists of restored stationary engines, tractors, farm and household memorabilia, backed by a panoramic Mallee mural.

The DA Wurfel Grain Collection has over 1000

â–ş â–ş â–ş â–ş â–ş â–ş â–ş â–ş

cereal varieties, including interpretive panels concerning developments in the grain industry.

As a young boy, Don Wurfel was interested in the wheat varieties his father grew on the farm.

Throughout his life he conducted trials to test the varieties for yield and suitability to the area.

A dryland farming display, with the theme ‘Conserve the water – Conserve the soil’, has six landscape dioramas and interpretive panels portraying agricultural development and production in the district over the 100 years.

play focuses on the theme ‘they stood beside them’.

It is an evocative display demonstrating the contribution made by women as they supported the men in the settlement of the Mallee.

The ‘Spirit of the Mallee’ has been interpreted with a series of clay plaques on concrete ‘motor tyres’.

The plaques bear information explaining the various aspects common to Mallee communities—water, fire, mallee, land use, settlement, history, etc.

Volunteers make it possible for the centre to be open for three hours daily from 10am to 1pm Monday to Saturday.

You may, or may not agree with Mr Opinion but he will get you thinking.

I FOUND out the other day that almost two thirds of Australians are not listed as organ donors.

May I impolitely ask; WHY NOT? Do any of you non-donors have plans to use them after you die?

Or are you just too selfish to help somebody else to live?

Australia has one of the lowest organ donation rates in the world.

I really had faith that in this enlightened day and age, most of us would have dismounted our moral high horses and be prepared to give something up of ourselves for the greater good.

Perhaps some of you have forgotten to register as an organ donor on your driver’s licence.

If that sounds like you, let me respectfully say, get your butt into gear, fast, and clear your conscience.

Because we’re not talking about a late water bill here, we’re talking about people’s LIVES. Imagine a young child in hospital, their

whole life potentially ahead of them, but desperately in need of an organ transplant.

If you can somehow gain great satisfaction knowing you have been buried with all of your parts, then please, let me hear it.

When you see an elderly lady spill her groceries in the supermarket, you don’t HAVE to stop and help her…you just do.

In Mr Opinion’s books, the same goes for organ donation.

Sorry, but once you’re finished with them, don’t be so damn selfish and take them with you.

It’s like asking to be buried with all of your money; YES it was YOURS, we know but how ridiculous, now that you’re finished with it, let somebody else use it.

Show some goodwill to your fellow human beings, become an organ donor and give someone else a second chance at life.

Then you truly will be able to rest in peace.

bies in any month featuring an ‘r’ in its name, the season is now over.

However, according to Paul there are still plenty of yabbies out there, you just have to work a little harder for them.

“It’s just a matter of travelling a little bit further,” Paul said.

“You need to get to places where other people might not have been.”

According to competiton organiser Kym Thiel, current hot spots include Lake Walla Walla, Katarapko Creek and, now that the river has dropped, on deep claybanks.

Kym said the competition will continue until at least June 17.

■ CATCH: Renmark’s Paul Schier with one of his entries in the big yabby competition.

Flight time for model enthusiasts THE Riverland Model Aero Club is holding its annual Funfly tournament this weekend, with a variety of aircraft expected to attend.

Model gliders and helicopter enthusiasts from around South Australia and Victoria will take part and Riverlanders are being urged to attend.

The Riverland is being represented by two experienced fliers, RMAC president Mark Burgess, with his F16 fighter ducted fan jet, and young pilot Matthew Chapple, with his three metre super extra aircraft.

Refreshments and a barbecue lunch will be available at the tournament, which will take place at the club’s grounds behind the Loxton North football oval.

■ FLIGHT: Matthew Chapple’s three metre Super Extra will be among the model aircraft involved in the RMAC’s Funfly this weekend.

Mr Burgess is calling on locals to become involved in the club, which has been in existence for 41 years.

“The club has a clubhouse,

pits area and an artificial turf runway,” he said.

“We have about 20 members ranging in age from 17 upwards who regularly fly on weekends

all year round.”

For more information on the Funfly tournament, or joining the RMAC, phone Mr Burgess on 0427 879 682.

NATIONAL CHIROPRACTIC CARE WEEK

Chiropractors help you put your best foot forward PUT your best foot forward next week with National Chiropractic Care Week.

Seaman Chiropractic and C&C Family Chiropractic will each be holding events to promote better health next week.

The Just Start Walking initiative is encouraging people to get away from their sedentary lifestyles and portable technology and enjoy some exercise.

Dr Chris Haigh, of C&C Family Chiropractic and Vitality Health Club, Renmark and Berri, said walking is a simple

way to increase your wellbeing.

“The human body is designed for movement, so to keep your spine at its best, we need to stay active – it’s time to lace up the sneakers and, quite simply, just start walking,” he said.

During next week Dr Haigh and staff will be highlighting the importance of posture and mobility on our overall health and wellbeing.

Dr Ryan Seaman, of Seaman Chiropractic, Loxton, said an active spine is a

healthy spine and a healthier spine leads to a healthier life.

“National Chiropractic Care Week is a prompt to make an appointment with your local CAA chiropractor to assess your spinal health and incorporate some more regular activity into your lifestyle,” Dr Seaman said.

“Regular, moderate activity – such as walking – has been shown to improve posture and overall health, as well as reduce the risk of a wide range of common health complaints.”

Chiropractors have undertaken five years of university training and continually upgrade their skills, so are experts at analysing posture and spinal problems.

The Just Start Walking initiative is designed to raise awareness about the importance of keeping active, the benefits this can offer to your overall wellbeing and spinal health, as well as providing an easy-to-use program to encourage regular physical activity.

Chiropractic Care Week ■ C&C Family Chiropractic will be hosting a walk along the Renmark riverfront on Sunday, May 29.

Meet opposite the Renmark Hotel at 8.45am for a 9am start with local chiropractors leading the way.

For more information please phone 8586 6824 ■ Seaman Chiropractic will host a 30 minute lunch time walk from noon next Monday.

An information evening will also be held the following day at Seaman Chiropractic (24 Bookpurnong Terrace, Loxton) from 6.30pm.

For more information, contact the clinic on 8584 7011.

Join Dr Seaman and his team for a 30 minute lunch time walk around Loxton.

When: Monday May 23, 2011 Time: 12noon Where: 24 Bookpurnong Tce, Loxton.

Please RSVP on 8584 7011 to book a spot.

Refr Re fres eshm hmen ents ts w wil illl be sser erve ved d af afte terw rwar ards ds.

Refreshments will served afterwards.

“Bring your walking shoes and a friend” Everyone Welcome

■ SPINE: Even the simple act of walking can keep your spine in good shape.

A triumphant synergy with these timeless treasures

ET high on the cliffs of the Majestic Murray River in the Riverland SA, is an illustrious historic dream, however a dream it is not, it’s very real and awaiting your tender touch and appreciation of history and days gone by.

Not one, but two history filled stone homesteads sitting proudly side by side as they have done for the last century. Heritage listed with good reason, this property will leave you speechless as it did me when I first viewed it.

The current owners have spent the last 18 months tenderly restoring with meticulous attention to detail and offering sublime refinement in each and every room slowly and surely to original condition as closely as possible.

The leadlight features, the light fixtures, the original wall paper features just leave you speechless. The beauty, the magnificence of how things were done of the turn of the last century is being bought back to life. You can feel it, it seeps out of the walls, you almost feel transported to another place in time.

At every turn, you can see memories of ladies in crinoline dresses and men in their

Sunday best with moustaches, its living history and it’s possibly yours.

Quite possibly, never again, will a property of this calibre such as this become available to the general public.

Enjoy the majesty of the homes, enjoy the pool, enjoy the fire-pit on summer or winter evenings on the cliff edge and watch the river flow before you.

Properties such as this come along rarely, very rarely.

Not just is this magnificence in real estate on sale but a piece of Australian and Riverland history and it truly requires someone who is not only going to be a owner but a genuine custodian.

One could rave on forever but space doesn’t allow.

Please, if this sort

of property inspires you, call and book a personal inspection because there are too many facets in this diamond to describe in one page. Only witnessing the beauty will put you truly in the picture as to the quality of this potential acquisition.

Let your dynasty begin.

J

UST on the fringe of Loxton is this fantastic lifestyle property for the family to live it, love it and to enjoy it!

Set on eight idyllic acres, you can escape suburbia and reside in this brick veneer, tiled roof residence that has three bedrooms with the potential to easily covert the formal lounge into a fourth.

The humungous family room will allow the young at heart, adults and kids to play and each of the carpeted bedrooms have built-in sliding robes and exterior awnings on each of the windows.

The country style kitchen incorporates abundant wall and bench cupboards, wall oven, bench hotplates

with exhaust rangehood, breakfast bar, spacious dining with access onto the front verandah that overlooks the tall woodlot gums.

Choices of combustion wood heating, ducted heating and evaporative cooling for those balmy days.

This great property is only minutes from the river for camping or the watersport enthusiasts, and a water allocation of 11.5 Megs of water for both irrigation and domestic use comes with the property.

The paddocks will allow you to plant seasonable vegetables to get some pocket money from the produce sales off the bitumen frontage that leads into Loxton.

Great accommodation for the

pets, as the aviaries will be a safe haven at night for the free range chickens, ba-ba lambs and the multiple large yabby ponds will allow breeding and feeding for the happy occupants of this property.

70x40’ high roof shedding has five sliding doors and a storage room with combustion heating for the bloke to stay warm whilst playing with the cars or having a game of snooker.

Adjacent is the second shower, toilet and laundry.

Roving space for adventure, play and to own your miniature farm filled with family and furry friends.

An inspection is a must, as properties like this are few and far between.

Left your run too late to save for retirement?

REPORT BY

By AMP Financial Planner

VERONICA

RUTHERFORD WHEN it comes time to finally hang up the work boots, a lot of people face the frightening realisation that they do not have enough retirement savings to live the lifestyle they were hoping for.

Many people make the mistake of leaving their run too late when building their retirement nest egg.

But if a personâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s retirement savings are looking a little grim, or even if they could just do with a boost, a transition to retirement (TTR) strategy is available to over 55s who are still working to boost their retirement savings.

Although the strategy might be a little difficult to grasp at first, once people understand it, they are often surprised by how much it can increase their retirement savings.

There are two simple steps

The simple strategy that can boost your nest egg involved in a transition to retirement strategy. â&#x2013; Step 1: Once a person has reached their superannuation preservation age, they can move their super into a specific type of account-based allocated pension to give themselves a more tax efficient income.

Some of the income payments received from the account-based pension may be tax-free with any taxable amount attracting a 15 per cent tax offset.

For people aged 60 or over, the income payments are entirely tax free.

In addition to that, the investment earnings within the pension are completely tax-free regardless of age. â&#x2013; S tep 2: After drawing down tax effective pension payments to cover living expenses, a person can then

Owning tomorrow is just around the corner

start contributing potentially large chunks of their before-tax salary back into super through salary sacrifice contributions.

This aggressive salary sacrificing, combined with the above pension tax benefits, can result in a dramatic boost to the overall retirement nest egg.

It is important to remember that there are concessional caps limiting the amount that can be salary sacrificed into super without incurring tax penalties.

This cap is $25,000 per year for those under 50, and $50,000 per year for those aged 50 and over (until June 30, 2012).

The amount counted towards this cap also includes an employerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s existing contributions, such as the minimum nine per cent super guarantee.

As noted earlier, a person must have also reached â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;preservation ageâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; before they can access their super to start a TTR pension.

The above table can be used to work out a personâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s preservation age, based on what year a person was born.

If people are interested in a transition to retirement strategy, they need to start preparing sooner rather than later to ensure that they can get started when they reach their preservation age.

A good first step is to visit to

DRAGS BRING ANDREW HOME

■ RACE: Andrew Cole on the track.

F

ORMER Riverland resident Andrew Cole has travelled full circle and is now living back in Barmera, after spending a number of years with his family in central Australia at Alice Springs.

In his earlier years, Andrew completed his apprenticeship as a welder fabricator, working with all varieties of metals but eventually concentrating on working with aluminium and established his own fabrication business.

Around 20 years ago he was introduced to motorsport while helping build an Auscar Commodore for local racing identity Ken I’Anson.

This became the catalyst for his involvement in the sport and Andrews’ client base for both street cars and motorsport race cars grew, along with his interest in drag racing and

REPORT BY

GRAHAM MATTHEWS drag car construction.

After a few years, Andrew decided it was time for a “dry change”, so he shut up shop, packed his bags and moved to Alice Springs where a new engineering business was established based around the transport industry but also involving some motorsport cars.

His desire to go drag racing was still there and a VH Commodore was built to race when drag meetings were held at the city’s old World War II airstrip every month or so.

Andrewâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s home and ready to race â&#x2013; From Page 25 Interest and momentum in drag racing grew rapidly, as did the need for a purpose built strip, so the Central Australian Drag Racing Association (CADRA) began lobbying governments and the local airport for land and funding to build their own facility.

September 11, 2001, not only changed New York, the United States and the world but it also changed the drag racing scene in central Australia.

With the increased security at airports around the world, spectators and others were no longer allowed to enter the formerly usable airstrip perimeter and drag racing came to a standstill.

The local and Territory governments both realised the loss to the region and soon an area of suitable land was allocated for the development of a purpose built facility.

Major funding was provided by the NT Department of Recreation and Sport and local businesses and sponsors made up the balance to build a Âź mile strip with the appropriate infrastructure to national standards, allowing vehicles to reach speeds of up to 200 mph.

Andrew was heavily involved in the negotiation and planning stages and oversaw the final construction with his business providing major sponsorship.

After several years of running his Commodore, it was sold and financed the building of a new car to compete in super sedan class.

This was a Mk2 Cortina, and while Andrew had a lot of fun and won a few meetings over the seven

and satisfaction of building the car from scratch and seeing it all come together on the track.â&#x20AC;?

Andrew has a website (acracing.com.au) where followers can keep track of his drag racing achievements.

His return to the Riverland is very timely for the motorsport club, as his experiences with building the Alice Springs Inland Dragway (ASID) and knowledge of the drag racing industry will be invaluable to their building of the local facility.

Andrew is also an ANDRA recognised tech inspector and steward, which will assist locals when building and seeking advice on construction of their race cars.

So why return to the Riverland, Andrew? â&#x20AC;&#x153;Even though the strip in Alice is successful and attracts racers from all over Australia, pulls good crowds and boosts the economy, the family had been considering returning for some time,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;When I heard the news about the drag strip approval late last year, I guess it made the decision a lot easier. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Once weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re settled back into a Riverland routine, I intend to open a new business based around the motorsport industry specialising in chassis construction and fabrication.

When the new facility in Barmera is up and running, I believe thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll be other associated businesses either being established or moving into the regionâ&#x20AC;?.

Now all we need is for construction to begin!

â&#x2013; DRAG: Former Riverland resident Andrew Cole, who is back living in the region, is a drag racing fanatic and is seen here ripping it up on the track. Photo: SUPPLIED years he raced it, all the time he was thinking of and planning the ultimate â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Tin Topâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; drag car.

During the past couple of years of owning the Cortina, those plans were slowly becoming reality as the building of his ultimate racer got under way.

It was a three year build process but Andrew knew exactly what he wanted and made sure all aspects of construction were properly undertaken.

A fibreglass, 1963 split window Chev Corvette body was purchased and the chrome moly chassis was built to Andrewâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s own design to suit the body shape and within doorslammer specs.

The front suspension is purpose built with disc brakes and at

the rear is a much narrowed, own design diff housing running 4.23:1 ratio Ford 9â&#x20AC;? gears.

The diff also has disc brakes and is located by fully adjustable, four link and coil over shocks.

The engine is an enormous 526ci BAE V8 with major internal modifications that runs a supercharger and mechanical fuel injection while the trans is a 3 speed Lenco manual gearbox.

The wheels are 15â&#x20AC;? x 4â&#x20AC;? and 16â&#x20AC;? x 16â&#x20AC;? Centreline Convo Pros with the appropriate big and little rubber used by serious drag racers.

The body was moulded in Australia and, after the purple base colour was applied by a local Alice Springs autopainter, an airbrush artist from Queensland was com-

missioned to design and apply the striking graphics.

The car is currently undergoing a rebuild after succumbing to a major engine failure that resulted in a minor crash and fire during a race in October 2010.

Prior to this, Andrew had made roughly 60 passes, clocking a best of 6.98 seconds at 211 mph over the quarter mile, which is a pretty reasonable time for a regional track. â&#x20AC;&#x153;While it hasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t shown its full potential on the track as yet, it has won a number of best presented and crew awards,â&#x20AC;? Andrew said.

And what is it about drag racing? â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s not just the buzz and adrenalin rush but the challenge

Cars in the news

Australia key to Toyota’s recovery WITH the Japanese earthquake having a devastating effect on the parts supply, Toyota’s Altona plant was forced to cut production by up to 50 per cent of pre-earthquake/Tsunami levels, Car Advice reports.

Toyota Japan has secured interim parts suppliers while some of the larger organisations

gear up again, which has allowed the factory in Australia to increase production to 9000 cars per month from July 6.

It seems the Toyota Australia family have done their part too, with Toyota Australia president and chief executive officer Max Yasuda saying “the past two months have been

challenging for Toyota Australia employees, dealers and suppliers but their flexibility and support has been critical in helping the company get back on its feet quickly”.

Toyota Australia will continue to provide information to its customers via its website www. toyota.com.au

Mazda top Nissan Leaf world’s best car sellers MAZDA Australia has recorded yet another strong performance in April, posting 6346 new vehicle sales according to official VFACTS figures released today, according to The Auto Channel.

Following a record first quarter, Mazda maintained its sales momentum in April to further cement its position as Australia’s top selling, full-line vehicle importer with 29,229 new Mazdas sold this year-to-date.

WHEN the Nissan Leaf arrives in Australia next year, it will likely be with some fanfare, The Motor Report said.

This week, the electric hatch was named World Car of the Year.

However, the World Car Awards Program honour did not come easy.

With the votes of all 66 international jurors tallied, the Leaf finished on 733.4 points, edging out the BMW 5 Series with 730.0 points - a nailbiter by any measure.

In third place was the new Audi A8 with 709.0 points, followed by the Audi A1, the Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG and the

Gibbs wins at Waikerie ■ THE professional and well presented Anthony Gibbs team from Loxton was rewarded with a win in the annual Steve Butcher Memorial Race for street stocks at last Saturday night’s speedway meeting at Waikerie’s Sunline track.

A big crowd braved a cold night to witness exciting, almost incident free racing throughout the program.

After winning a heat, Gibbs beat Matthew Rapisarda and the other heat winner Justin Demaine in a six car feature that did not let spectators down.

Another of the meeting’s features was the AMCA Spectacular and with 17 cars involved in a 25 lap main event, it was always going to be hectic with a number of yellow flags doing a flutter.

In the end, Dave ‘Snowy’ Hartman finished a good night by being first to the chequered flag after winning a heat and also breaking his two lap record in a pole shuffle.

Darren McCarthy and Corey Fox filled the minor placings.

Big fields were certainly on show on the night, as there were 17 cars in the junior division resulting in two features being introduced.

Mikayla Hein won yet again at Sunline in the A feature and Josie

Baraclough in the B event.

In super sedans, a late arrival did not stop Gil Worthley from winning the last heat and then the feature.

In modifieds, a dominant display by David Smith saw him grab the feature after also taking out a heat.

Six wingless sprints took to the track and, even though he won both heats, Phil Obst was relegated to second place in the feature when he was beaten home by Codie Atkins.

The night concluded with the spectacular figure eight jump race and Jason Gantz became the second local, after Gibbs, to snare a win on the night.

He survived carnage, that was magnified by poor visibility for a time as the dry infield turned the venue into a giant dust bowl, better than the rest to take the victory.

Sunline has certainly enjoyed a bumper season and fans still have one meeting to go, with reportedly 15 super sedans already booked for the Wally Francombe Memorial Race on the Sunday of the June long weekend.

Gates will open at 10am, with racing starting at noon, also including modified sedans, AMCAs, street stocks, juniors, classics with a sponsors evening to follow.

■ DURING the time I was employed by the public service, I was a workmate of former Adelaide Crows football manager John Reid and for a period we filled similar roles, me in the Riverland and John in Port Augusta.

Our positions meant we often exchanged visits and I recall one ■ DISCIPLINARIAN: occasion when I John Reid. travelled north to see ‘Reidy’ when he was also in a successful stint as the coach of the South Augusta Football Club.

John had, of course, played and coached at South Adelaide and at Woodville had linked up with Malcolm Blight, a partnership that later really excelled at the Crows’ camp.

I remember John taking me to South Augusta’s changerooms and seeing the message emblazoned across the wall, ‘Dedication, Desperation and Determination defy defeat’.

Football followers would obviously look at seeing their club’s players displaying those characteristics in the main, although the people pulling the strings around the team could also well do with a dose of the same.

John Reid has had a massive impact on football and that was certainly the case in Port Augusta where he was often referred to as the ‘Angry Ant’, so I have never had the desire to cross his path.

In fact, the only reason he did not add the word ‘discipline’ to his three Ds must surely have been because there was not room on the clubroom wall, not because he could not spell it.

He certainly displayed it and insisted on it from all around him.

‘Discipline’ – it may even be more important than the other three Ds and surely is necessary from everyone at the club from the president to the supporter if success is to be achieved both on and off the field of play.

Thursday May 19, 2011 – Riverland Weekly • 31 You know how I be, last week Kobe couldn’t do without me. ~ Shaquille O’Neill raps about fellow NBA star Kobe Bryant

Rained out ■ COACH Kym Bament and local baseballers David Grenfell (Renmark), Steven Scott and Nick Kuhn (Berri) have returned frustrated from the Australian Provincial Baseball Championships in Blacktown, Sydney.

Constant rain during the 11 day trip meant that only four day’s play were possible, although that did allow the reduced number of teams that turned up at the tournament to play each other once.

Talking to Scott, he felt that initially SA suffered from some of their players coming from their home off-season and others not being accustomed to the longer nine innings contest.

That was confirmed by the team’s gradually improved showings as, after heavy defeats by WA and NSW, it defeated New Caledonia and then, with the traditional SA versus Victoria rivalry alive and well, went down to the Vics 9-7 in a game played in extremely wet conditions.

“Sadly, with all of the non-stop rain, it became more of a social event than a baseball competition,” Scott said.

“Although, we can perhaps look forward to next year when the event may be held in New Caledonia.”

The number of teams in the Riverland Veterans Tennis Tournament.

SPORT

Tennis veterans flock to Riverland

■ IF YOU sensed an increase in our population last weekend, particularly at the high end of the age scale, you were not imagining things.

There were 515 players from 98 teams in the Riverland for our annual veterans tennis tournament, with the competition using the lawn courts at Berri, Barmera, Renmark Tintra and Loxton.

This was the 24th year this tournament has been held and it attracted 52 entries from Adelaide, 33 from country SA, three from Victoria, three from ACT/NSW, two from Queensland, one from WA and four from New Zealand.

It is the biggest seniors tournament in Australia, with even more participants than in this year’s national seniors championships in Newcastle.

Tennis Australia has conducted a survey to determine (why) the Riverland event is so popular

I understand Tennis Australia has conducted a survey to determine the reasons the

Riverland event is so popular.

Performances from local players this time included a win

by River Mozzies (Sue Caddy, Theresa Hansford, Vicki Johnson, Jill Harris, Heather Stoner and Karen Flight), in 35 to 45 section B women.

Teams to finish runners-up were Mallee Bulls (Peter Crouch, Adrian Fielke, Peter French, Phillip Proud and Shane Semmler), in 35 to 45 men Section A, and Salsa Stars (Anne Crouch, Gioia Perre, Karen Rubarth, Jenny Mules and Georgia Tzanavaras) in 35 to 45 women’s Section A. In 60 to 70 years women, SSS (Sue Fox, Pauline Johnson,

Jillian Clifford, Jill Fogden, Shirley Hefford and Val Chabrel) were also runners-up, as were River Vets (Ken Smith, Colin Lindner, Stan Menz, Kel Frankel, Gerry Greenway and Mick Simpendorfer) in 65 to 75 men Section B. Loxton’s Nita Thom played for Flinders Angels, runners-up in women’s 55 and over division two and Berri’s Betty Collins was, with a New Zealand team, runners-up in 60 to 70 years women Section B. Adelaide teams Parks and Wildlife, in the men’s, and Ready to Rage, in the women’s, took out the 35 years and over open titles.

What price another dinghy champion?

■ WHAT price we have another dinghy derby and powerboat ace emerging?

Nine year old Renmark lad Cameron Price had his first race in the J1 class (boats up to 6hp) at the Powerboat Trophy Day at West Lakes last weekend and indicated he is going to be a ‘chip off the old block’.

Cameron is the son of dinghy derby champion and 550cc Sports Class National power-

boat title holder Linton and prominent greyhound trainer Nicole.

With only a few practice runs at home behind him, Cameron lined up in the city for his first serious hit out against boats in his own class and some with bigger motors in J2 and J3.

A hot lap gave him a handicap and then he had three debut races, finishing second, first, then third overall to win the J1 class.

He was assisted on the day by his uncle Colin Gordon, his dad’s regular crew in the 550cc class.

As far as Linton’s day was concerned, he won the opening scratch race but then felt the wrath of the handicapper, starting last in the field of seven boats and a full minute behind the first to start the three minute event.

Nevertheless, he still finished second and third in the two

events and won the trophy for his class.

Proud grandfather, local greyhound stalwart Don Gordon, was waterside to watch Cameron perform.

“He was full of enthusiasm about the race but found it all a bit daunting as all of the other boats turned up,” Don said.

“He overcame the early nerves, though, and really did a great job.”

Premiership theme for celebratory dinner

■ THE main theme for this Saturday night’s 40 years of Independent Football in the Riverland dinner, at the Cobdogla Club, is ‘premiership teams’ but there will also be focus on various award winners and umpires from across the competition’s history.

Talking to one of the event’s main organisers Rob Lehmann last Monday, I found that the guest list already included former Wunkar and Loxton star Alan ‘Spider’ Evans, Cobdogla goalkicking centurion Garry Warrick, premiership coaches John Will (Moorook Kingston) and Gary Menz (Brown’s

Well) and former umpires Ian Paull and John Green.

One time league chairs Jim Green and Ken Nitschke, with his wife Bev, also a former RFL Commission member, will also be there.

From the 40 champions from 40 years list, Bob Mapey, of Chaffey, Renmark and Paringa fame will be along, plus the newest inductees Lyrup’s Shane Healy and Wunkar’s Mark Rudiger.

The dinner starts at 6pm with the cost of the meal $30.

Enquiries to Rob Lehmann (0400 916 224).

■ AT THE Bowls SA awards night on Saturday night, an inaugural induction of members into an SA Bowls Hall of Fame will be made.

One category of member requires nominees to have a high level of achievement from personal effort or initiative in a field of endeavour that contributes to the development and status of the sport.

Nominees should have made a major contribution at international, national or state levels in the sport, or to the sport in general.

It is no surprise then that our own Audrey Hefford, a multiple winner of the Riverland Sportsperson of the Year Award, will be amongst the first 11 names to make it onto a permanent honour board.

Audrey will certainly be amongst illustrious company, as other inaugural Hall of Famers are Errol Bungey (OAM), Betty Greensland (Schenke), Des Moran (MBE), Mary Ormsby (OAM), Paul Richards, Alf Sandercock, Andrew Smith, Ray Tume, Dorothy Wheeler and Arrienne Wynen.

Audrey’s daughter, state squad member Kerri Treloar, who plays for Berri, added an extra reason for family celebration last weekend by taking out the SA Women’s Champion of Champions singles title in Adelaide.

Audrey’s grandson Craig Treloar, a former state men’s singles champion, made it through to the quarter finals of the men’s competition.

Josh on the road to recovery REPORT BY RE

CA CALLUM TR TRIFONOFF AFTER succumbing to the injury from hell, Barmera Monash footballer Josh Buchecker is on the long road to recovery.

An innocuous tackle by a Loxton North player last month left the promising Roo with a torn meniscus, three torn hamstring muscles and a damaged anterior cruciate ligament, putting him out of the game for a minimum of two years.

The surgeon who operated on Buchecker said he had not seen an injury like it since he operated on former Adelaide player Trent Hentschel’s knee and described the hamstring injury as “as bad as (St Kilda star) Nick Riewoldt’s”.

Buchecker is devastated at the prospect of missing two seasons of football.

“Most of my life I have played football,” he said.

“To not be able to play for that long is just disappointing.”

Buchecker has already begun his journey to recovery, receiving physiotherapy the day after surgery.

“I’ve started doing movements, walking with crutches,” he said.

“I’m in a brace at the moment and, hopefully they’ll slowly open it up and allow it to be more flexible over the next few weeks.”

After the two years, Buchecker will assess his situation and decide whether to resume playing football.

“If I can, I’ll still play but I’ll see how it goes then,” he said.

“Trent Hentschel showed he could come back from his injury, so I can too.”

Buchecker will continue to support the Roos as they look to build on five

wins from five games this season.

Buchecker’s father Steve said the sight of his son lying on the ground injured was scary.

“At first, I didn’t actually know it was him,” Mr Buchecker said.

“When I found out, it was a very worrying situation.

“I played football myself and I know about the injuries but this was described by the surgeon as one of the worst ever seen.”

Meanwhile, Barmera captain Matt Leyson is

hopeful the Roos can continue their good form, despite the skipper missing the rest of the season after a training ground injury.

“You can’t ask for much more than five wins from five games,” Leyson said.

“The boys just have to take each Saturday as it comes and hopefully, they can do some good things.”

Leyson will require an ACL reconstruction after colliding with a team-mate a fortnight ago.

“At first, I was hoping it was just medial damage and that would’ve left me out for only six to eight weeks but the scans came back no good” he said.

“I actually walked off the ground when it happened but when I woke up the next morning, I could hardly move.”

Barmera coach Mark Wilden said the Roos will miss their two key defenders for the remainder of the season.

“They both had really good pre seasons, both got fit and played good footy,” Wilden said.

“It’s really disappointing they’ll miss so much, they’re both good honest lads and good players.

However, Wilden said his squad has enough depth to fill the void left by the two players.

Riverland team named for Fed Cup KYLE Lehman has been named captain of the Riverland Soccer Association team to take on Port Noarlunga in this weekend’s Federation Cup match.

Lehman replaces Steve Atkinson as skipper, with the star player unavailable for this match.

Also in the squad is former Hull City junior Lewis Vallelonga, who has made a strong stamp on the local game since

returning to play for Berri River Rangers.

Other squad members are Andrew Brooks, Rhys Barber, Kevin Barber Jnr, Jim Fournaros, Ramazan Hassani, Luke Ireland, Chris Miller and Thomas Pilgrim.

Barmera Dev Estate gaffer Kevin Barber Snr is the coach and Louie Avolonitis the team manager.

The squad has been hard hit by injury, with

talented quartet Nick Spinks, Hari Singh, Bari Singh and Daniel Clark all out of sorts.

Noarlunga United are currently sitting third from bottom in the Premier League (Adelaide’s second tier competition), with the Riverland still facing a stiff challenge if it is to progress past the group of 32 in the knockout competition.

Marina upgrade a boost for boat racing ■ From Page 40 The Berri Barmera Council has given thw finishing date for the project as June next year but Berri Water Ski Club member Mike Stephenson said everyone will have to wait for the floodwater to fully recede before plans can be properly drawn up.

“Nothing will happen until the water goes down,” he said.

Mr Stephenson said the funding will stretch a long way.

“It (the funding) would be to dredge the area because it’s too shallow for a lot of the bigger boats in powerboat racing and it will also help keep the weed growth under control,” he said.

“We want to make sure the new ramp facility that goes in there is big enough and wide enough to cope with the volumes of traffic and then get the area bituminised and linemark some proper parking.

“The same sort of facelift that Bruno Bay has had at Cobdogla, with proper parking and lighting for evenings.”

Mr Stephenson agreed that an upgrade to the marina

would attract more people to the area.

“The Berri Ski Club hosts the Riverland powerboat spectacular and if there is a bigger boat ramp and better facilities, it is going to give us the opportunity to attract more competitors and make that a bigger event,” he said.

“Also, it would provide a far better tourist facility.

“They can bring their boats and have somewhere decent to launch them, rather than get stuck up in reeds with weeds choking their motors.”

The marina is located directly across from the Berri Riverside Caravan Park and manager Max Kubank said an upgrade would be a huge win for the community.

“It (the upgrade) will certainly be good for the area and make it more user friendly,” he said.

“We will get more people into the park and the town.”

Berri Barmera Council chief executive officer David Beaton said the timber and concrete at the marina are in need of an upgrade.

Hanging on for dear life

By ANDREW WALLADGE

R

ECENTLY I had the pleasure of staying at a coastal camp site.

Donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t get me wrong, I love the river but, as they say, a change is as good as...

Anyhow, one of the many delights of this particular trip was the vegetation (for me at least).

The amazing thing about severe coastal sites is how anything manages to grow at all.

This place was obviously very windy, with plenty of salt thrown in; very shallow soils to the point of no soil at all in places (just sheet limestone) and, to top it off, relatively low rainfall.

Most plants take on the appearance of bonsais; thick trunks supporting time weary shrubs that are usually trees.

One example I made a note of was the melaleuca lanceolata dryland tea tree.

On a floodplain in the Riverland this plant often grows to around four to six metres and takes on the appearance of a tree.

On this coastal site it was reduced to a mere 60 to 70 millimetres, with a metre spread.

Sounds more like a groundcover doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t it?

Another I spotted was an example of correa pulchella native fuchsia.

This beautiful little shrub with bell flowers can grow up to one metre high and spread to 1.5 metres.

With the â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;lack of soilâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;, it was quite literally smaller than a babyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s fist.

My favourite for the trip was a native pig face disphyma crassifolium

ssp clavellatum clinging to a rock face for dear life, with the frothing tide whipping its new growth at its lower extremities.

I mean to say, talk about living on the edge.

Have you done a flip on your water skis? How about free falling off cliffs? Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s nothing, this little bloke hangs out there 24/7 in all weathers, storms and all.

Do you know what?

This plant didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t even look out of place.

It was even the picture of health.

My point is that if these sorts of plants can do well in the extremes of situations, how much better are they going to grow in your garden in your tender care (or in spite of it)?

So make wise choices using tough plants that can handle anything that you can dish up to your garden.

â&#x2013; RECORDING: Berri based hop-hop artist Levelheaded has been busy in the studio working on his latest album with his group Full Tote Odds. Photo: JANE WILSON

RIVERLAND school teacher turned hip-hop artist Tom Leverenz has learnt a lot about himself and his music since releasing his first full length solo album two years ago.

No longer is Levelheaded, as he is known in the hip-hop world, going solo.

Instead he has joined his brother, Eslev, and Adelaide Hills pair Ross Read and Slats, to form Full Tote Odds.

On the verge of the groupâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s debut album release in September, Leverenz has embraced a more instrumental sound to his hip-hop. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Every track has got some sort of live instrumentation in it, whether it just be a bass guitar, an acoustic or a metal guitar, live drums or piano,â&#x20AC;? Leverenz said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;There are a lot of strings as well. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Hip-hop music is traditionally a sample from an old song or an old funk track and keeping the sample fairly raw. â&#x20AC;&#x153;That style of hip-hop is probably dying out and people are starting to add more layers to it and take it more on a musical sort of journey than what it used to be.â&#x20AC;?

The Glossop High School teacher said the release of the single Place Your Bets, from the new album, has created

much expectation and anticipation. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Essentially, we are keeping this one pretty close to our chest,â&#x20AC;? Leverenz said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t think anyone in the industry quite knows what we are going to hit them with. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve been getting plenty of advice from players in the industry.â&#x20AC;?

It has been a few years since Leverenzâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s last album Spice Of Life but he has good reason to be taking his time. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve learnt the value of working hard on something,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve given ourselves an extra six months, so we can put out a couple of film clips and really promote it.â&#x20AC;?

One thing has not changed for Leverenz, the way every day life inspires his lyrics. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The effort I put into writing my raps hasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t changed,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It still takes me a few days to write a 30 or 40 second verse just to make sure itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s tight.â&#x20AC;?

With the release of the Full Tote Odds album later in the year, Leverenz has promised a local show for his fans. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The Riverland was good to us last time and lots of people came to our show and the new yearâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s show,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Lots of people brought the album from the local store, so hopefully Riverlanders are on board again.â&#x20AC;?

Big Marina upgrade at Berri

ROAD TO RECOVERY A HORRIFIC injury was the end result of a seemingly innocuous tackle on Barmera-Monash footballer Josh Buchecker.

The injury will see Buchecker (pictured) out of football for at least two seasons but the youngster can still raise a smile.

By BRAD PERRY THE ageing Berri Marina is set for a facelift, in a move which is expected to attract much more usage of the popular area.

More than $400,000 in funding for the Berri Water Ski Club project has been included in the Berri Barmera Council 2011/12 budget, with hope for further funds from the South Australian Boating Facility Advisory Committee.

Berri Water Ski Club president Craig Holtham said the ailing marina is in desperate need of attention and welcomed the funding.

“We do the speedboat spectacular every year and that’s a huge event,” he said.

“We’ve got the best area in the region, best river and best everything, just the worst boatramp.

“These boats need to come in and out constantly after every race and if the boat ramp is not going to work with us, they will look for somewhere else to take it and that’s not what we want.

“The reason why we wanted to see if we could get funding for the whole marina was not only to benefit the whole area and town and bring people back to the Riverland but mainly so we can keep running these boats in boat racing and ski racing.”

Mr Holtham said the ski club will continue to work with the Berri Lions Club, which originally constructed the marina.

Sadly, he is one of two key Roos who has had a knee reconstruction in recent weeks, putting a considerable dent in Barmera-Monash’s playing stocks.
