Advisory council wants the return of accident and emergency services at Renmark

LONG TERM REVIVAL

THE Renmark Health Advisory Council will continue to pursue a long term goal to revive the accident and emergency services at the Renmark Paringa District Hospital following a meeting with Country Health SA on Tuesday.

After meeting with Country Health SA chief executive officer Belinda Moyes, Renmark Health Advisory Council chair Heather

REPORT BY

BRAD PERRY Burton said it is likely funding to reintroduce the accident and emergency services at Renmark may not be available for up to four years.

“We met with Country Health

and the new Commonwealth model of health funding is coming in and so the message we got from the CEO of Country Health is that they are not at all wanting to start looking at funding something again that’s been lost,” Ms Burton said.

“If we want to pursue accident and emergency then we are going to have to do it in the knowledge that

it’s not necessarily going to be an easy thing to go for at this time.

“We know that right now the GPs couldn’t do it anyway and it’s not in the Budget, so we would be looking at this in three to four years time.

“It’s the long term strategy.”

Ms Burton said she has had feedback from the community suggesting they would support the ser-

Our top pies

The great pie hunt EVERYONE loves a good Aussie meat pie.

Two former locals love their pies so much they have travelled across the country tasting more than 400 bakery meat pies to create a book.

Along the way, the pair stopped in to Loxton, Renmark and Pinnaroo and made sure they did not leave without taking a bite out of our delicious pies.

Each of the pies were rated as on par with some of the best in Australia.

It is great news to hear that our bakeries are continuing to make such quality food and let’s hope the extra publicity will bring tourists to the region.

I mean would you drive hundreds of kilometres to taste a meat pie based on its reputation?

It may seem unlikely but the Clancy brothers are certainly correct on one thing, there is a certain culture about bakeries in country towns.

A town can be known for its great pie or even a sweet pastry.

I do not doubt that there are Riverland and Mallee business people and farmers who drive an extra few kilometres each day to grab their favourite pie.

And if it is good, they will spread the word around.

THE burden of Riverland irrigators to return water to the environment has eased following the an announcement that SA Water will offer 20 gigalitres for the river.

South Australian Premier Jay Weatherill announced on Monday that SA Water will offer water to the Federal Government to buy for environmental flows.

Central Irrigation Trust chief executive Gavin McMahon praised the move, which he said had been on the agenda for some time. “We’ve been concerned virtually since the start of the Murray Darling Basin Plan that if SA Water didn’t contribute into the recovery of water, that would mean a bigger burden on the irrigation communities,� he said. “We’ve had comments that yes, they’ll play their part but nobody really ever understood what that meant, so yesterday (Monday) really

■Central Irrigation Trust chief executive Gavin McMahon. clarified that.�

Mr McMahon said the SA Water gesture would save the equivalent of 2000 hectares of wine grapes in the region. “It means that they are paying proportionally a large part in the recovery of water and from a community point of view we have to be really happy with that because that means less water that then comes out of our communities,� he said. “The impact of them not

doing that was significant around our communities, so I’d suggest that they’ve had discussions with State Government about partaking in it and those discussions have been fruitful.�

Premier Weatherill said previously this extra water was purchased to keep Adelaide going but because of residents’ water savings during the drought, this water can be put back into the river.

State Opposition wants answers over school’s BER project THE State Opposition will ask the State Government why an $800,000 Covered Outdoor Learning Area (COLA) funded by the Building Education Revolution will not be relocated as part of the new Riverland Special School expected to be completed by September next year.

At Parliament’s public works committee meeting yesterday, Opposition shadow health and ageing minister Martin Hamilton-Smith said there is uncertainty as to what will happen with the school’s current Berri site once a new facility is built.

He said during the

meeting, it was stated that the current school site is likely to be given back to the State Government for sale, with expressions of interest already shown to purchase the land.

Mr Hamilton-Smith said a new COLA will be built as part of the school. “What they confirmed today (Wednesday) is that they would be building a new one as part of the relocation,� he said. “They said it would cost about $600,000 to $700,000. “Within a few years of building one that’s already there, they are going to move the school and build

another one. “So whether that means the existing one will be ripped out, bulldozed or sold off with the land, who knows. “I think there is a waste there with taxpayers’ money.�

Meanwhile, Mr Hamilton-Smith said there was changes yesterday to the Riverland Regional Hospital’s completion dates. “The Berri Hospital redevelopment quarterly report tabled today states completion will be in December 2013 but the Budget papers last week said it would be June 2014,� he said.

THE FRIENDLY CLUB

VOLUNTEERS at the Cobdogla Irrigation and Steam Museum are hoping visitors will still visit this weekend despite the famous Humphrey Pump being out of operation.

Last month, during a private running of the Humphrey Pump, a gas leak was detected in the pump well and as a result the leak is currently being investigated by SA Water.

Cobdogla Steam Friends Society secretary and chief mechanical engineer Denis Wasley said the pump is the main attraction. “We normally run on the June long weekend and yes, it’s disappointing that we are not allowed to,� he said. “We hope they (visitors) still come but a lot of people come specifically come to see that.�

The pump will not be operational until the investigation and repairs are completed.

Residents face rate rise THE Berri Barmera Council is proposing a 3.9 per cent rate rise for the coming financial year, with ratepayers also expected to pay a service charge on new waste measures.

The rate increase was discussed at a special council meeting for the 2012/13 annual business plan on Tuesday night.

Berri Barmera Council chief executive officer David Beaton said the current economic climate was taken into consideration when proposing an increase in rates.

“They’ve been very diligent

over the past four or five budgets in trying to keep the rate increases as low as possible but they understand the pain that is within the community,” he said.

“It’s a budget that’s based really on the essentials for local government about waste and looking after the recreation areas and roads.

“They’ve been critically analysing it so they keep a lid on all expenditure they can.”

The annual business plan, which will now go to public consultation, also proposes a service charge to

introduce kerbside recycling to the Berri Barmera area.

“They are looking at introducing the recycling and green waste collection in the latter part of the year, so that will be something they are looking at setting a service charge for but that won’t start until the service starts,” Mr Beaton said.

“Based on some of the early figures that we’ve got, the three bin collection on an annual basis is about $195 for three bins for a normally weekly collection, fortnightly recy-

Tony and Paul’s comments:

cling and fortnightly green waste.

“In the rural areas, they obviously haven’t got the need for green waste, it would be about $165, which would be the weekly collection and fortnightly recycling.”

A waste management service charge has been included in the plan totalling $990,345.

Also included in the annual business plan is a separate rate to be imposed on commercial properties ($82 per commercial assessment) to fund part of the $43,530 for Destination Riverland.

Our top meat pie

“They thought it was appropriate that they have a levy on the businesses or areas that were going to be the beneficiaries of it (Destination Riverland) and it wasn’t for the total amount, it is part from the rates and part from the special rate on the commercial businesses,” Mr Beaton said.

“Hopefully that will encourage the businesses to be more involved in how Destination Riverland operates and get their businesses involved as well to try and get the benefit of that investment.”

■ GREAT PIE: The Country Bakehouse owner Tim Vivian inspects a fresh batch of meat pies, which have been highly rated as part of a new book titled The Pie Buyer’s Guide to Australia. Photo: BRAD PERRY FORMER Riverlanders Paul and Tony Clancy rate meat pies across the Riverland and Mallee as some of the best in Australia.

The brothers, who grew up in Renmark, have produced a book titled The Pie Buyer’s Guide to Australia, travelling thousands of kilometres over 15 months to taste pies from across the country.

During their journey, they ate meat pies at Loxton, Renmark and Pinnaroo, with each bakery receiving top compliments.

In fact, the meat pie at The Country Bakehouse in Loxton received the highest possible rating of five stars with only eight per cent of 395 reviews receiving that score.

The Renmark Patisserie and Pinnaroo Bakery both received four out of five stars on the pie rating system.

Author of the book Tony Clancy, who grew up on a fruit

REPORT BY

BRAD PERRY block at Renmark, said the idea came about after years of joking with his brother Paul.

“When we were young journalists working in the country we’d joke about one day writing the pie buyer’s guide to the country,” he said.

“We decided to stop talking about and to go and do it.”

Mr Clancy said the Riverland and Mallee has a reputation for producing top quality pies.

“Loxton has always had that reputation and in a way compete with themselves and they’ve never dropped their guard, they’ve always produced a good pie,” he said.

“I know people who go out of their way to get a Loxton pie.

“I think generally there is a very good standard throughout the Riverland and Mallee.

“You wouldn’t find a bad pie in your region.”

There was a certain criteria for which the brothers used to judge the pies.

“These are the traditional beef mince pies, we are not looking for chunky beef, we want something with a nice, crisp top and a base which is firm and a good shortcrust,” Mr Clancy said.

“We had a standard assessment which looked at all of those key things such as the aroma, the appetising appeal and the balance between pastry and filling.

“If you get a four, that’s regarded as an exceptional pie anyway but a five is a bit like the gold medal with wine, it’s just something that really exceeds expectations.”

Mr Clancy said there is a cul-

ture surrounding bakeries and their pies in the country.

“People have been known to go well out of their way to get a good pie to plan their day around it,” he laughed.

The Country Bakehouse, Loxton, owner Tim Vivian said being acknowledged as having one of the best meat pies in Australia in the book is a great achievement.

“It probably means more to me than winning some of our national competitions because this is judged by people with an unbiased opinion, people who are just like our normal customers who walk in off the street and have judged our pies,” he said.

Mr Vivian said using high quality, local ingredients was crucial in the success of the pie.

Calls to revive accident and emergency services at Renmark ■From Page 1 “Renmark is the biggest town in the Riverland and we now have a much more stable GP workforce than we did a few years ago, which is why they gave up accident and emergency of course, so we figured we should be doing what we can to get it back again. “I think it’s on the agenda for the people of Renmark and the disrict. “I think it would be a very popular move to get accident and emergency back and I think that people aren’t that happy that we had to give it up in the first place. “We believe in the hospital and we believe it does have a future and we want to make more use of our excellent facilities and elective surgery and getting accident and emergency back is something that we think is the right thing to do for the community.�

Health funding should be spread around the community instead of to one particular project, according to Ms Burton. “Certainly I think the funding should be spread around and there should be opportunities for all parts of our region,� she said.

$8 million projects announced last year are yet to begin at Katfish Reach

Floodplain works delayed

â– NATURE: A Riverine Recovery project aimed at rejuvenating the Katfish Reach Floodplain, which will help animals such as birds, frogs and fish, is yet to begin due to high river flows over the past 12 months.

WORKS at the Katfish Reach Floodplain, totaling $8 million, are yet to begin with high river flows delaying the project by more than a year.

Last year, the State and Federal Government announced two lots of funding for the wetland as part of the Riverine Recovery Project.

The funding was allocated to manage the habitat of the vulnerable Murray Hardyhead, improve the Katarapko Island Drainage Basin, enhance floodplain flow and fish passage connectivity and replace six major instream fish and flow barriers throughout Katarapko and Eckert Creeks.

However, Katfish Reach Steering group chairman Kevin Smith said there has been delays in works commencing. “The work hasn’t started because the river’s been up and they haven’t been able to get the vehicles and the necessary equipment in there to do any of the work,� he said. “As soon as the river drops,

we’re hoping that plenty of work starts very soon particularly replacing those structures and things like the log bridge. “Water comes over the floodplain at 50,000 megalitres per day and by the time it gets down to 20,000, we’d be looking at drawing back from most of the areas we want to start to do some work on but of course it will still be soggy as can be.�

a little bit of water moves out onto the floodplain, we’ll get fish breeding. “At the moment there is a little entrance right on the river that allows a little bit of water to trickle over and of course what’s happened, most of the creeks then have reeded up, we’ve got these things like log crossings where nothing can get past.

As soon as the river drops, we’re hoping that plenty of work starts very soon.

Mr Smith said he is hoping works will begin as soon as possible to realise the benefits. “If you wanted to go into the Katarapoko weir to do some fishing you go over a little old rickety log bridge and no fish can move through the system, so those sorts of things are going to be replaced,� he said. “When we’re able to get some water flowing through there and

“When they did some fish surveys, they found a big old callop‌that had been sitting in there waiting for the next flood that we’ve just had now, so he would be able to move out and he’d been sitting there for nearly 10 years waiting for another lot of water to get through.â€?

In last week’s State Budget, just over $4 million was allo-

cated to the Katfish Reach floodplain Riverine Recovery project for major works to restore health to the area.

The project will see implementation of a hydrological regime to facilitate water level variation and improve connectivity between wetlands, watercourses and the river channel.

In the 2012/13 Budget, it states that increased expenditure for the project is $700,000 over the 2011/12 forecast.

Member for Chaffey Tim Whetstone said he will be asking the State Government about the allocation of funding. “I understand it’s the Katfish Reach Floodplain Project but it’s coming under the Riverine Recovery program which is federal money,� he said. “Yet we don’t have anyone on the ground who has a clear understanding of what the money is going to be badged for.. “I’m sceptical because I don’t want to see that $8 million sitting in a State Government coffer with a delayed project.�

Riverland to embrace flower industry?

A FLORICULTURIST believes the Riverland could embrace the flower industry as an alternative option to fruit growing.

Tony Herve will make a presentation in Barmera tonight about a sustainable floriculture industry in the Riverland, which includes opportunities in intensive horticulture, cut flower and the bulb industry.

Mr Herve said the region has several essential elements, including the right climate, to embrace the flower

industry and fill a market in Australia. “We’re importing about 10,000 blooms a week from overseas and that’s import replacement for a start and the Riverland has more, or equally, as much sunlight as the Gold Coast in Queensland,� he said. “You’ve got land, you’ve got water, it’s a high value crop, you don’t need to grow 50 acres to earn a living, you cam grow it on one acre.�

With 60 people already

registered to attend the presentation at the Barmera Golf Club at 7pm tonight, Mr Herve said there is the potential to form a corporate body if there is enough interest and growers are willing to invest in the industry to kick start it locally. “There’s some plants that are well suited to the natural climate up in the Riverland but the real essence is marketing,� he said. “It’s a long term thing and government’s got to help.�

Capturing venus Locals and visitors are all eyes on the sky for rare moment

By BRAD PERRY “THERE is probably no one living on the planet that will actually see the next one.”

Those were the words from Tanunda’s David Noll yesterday as he used a telescope and other equipment to witness venus cross the sun.

Mr Noll made the trip to the Riverland and found the perfect spot at the Pelican Point Holiday Park, in Barmera, to witness the rare event, which will not happen again for another 105 years.

“The viewing prospects were very good and the Riverland has a lot of sunshine so that’s why I came this way,” he said.

“I’m recording the transit as it happens, as it crosses the sun.

“Venus and the sun and the earth are lined up and that happens very rarely.

“What you see against the backdrop of the sun is the little black dot of venus crossing.”

Many Riverland photographers attempted to snap the event and Mr Noll said a decision to travel to the Riverland paid off with clear blue skies.

“I was going to be very disappointed if I missed it,” he laughed.

Paringa photographer Grant Schwartzkopff said he did not expect to be able to capture the eclipse on his camera but was pleasantly surprised.

“As I was looking I could see on the very bottom of the sun, a block dot had appeared,” he said.

Questions over phylloxera changes FAMILY First MLC Rob Brokenshire is encouraging Riverland winegrape growers to contact industry associations over changes to the Phylloxera act.

Mr Brokenshire said that under changes to the rules regarding phylloxera protection, machinery and equipment can come into another wine region without being disinfected, as long as it has come from an exclusion zone.

“Family First are very concerned that the State Government were happy to drop a standard that protects our massive wine grape industry,” he said.

“The Victorians might complain about a cost in having to wash down machinery after the re-instated standard, but that is nothing compared to the massive cost to the wine industry in South Australia if we suffered a phylloxera outbreak.

“I encourage Riverland winegrape growers to get in contact with their industry associations and in turn the Phylloxera Board about this issue to

ensure South Australia has the best possible protection from phylloxera.

“This decision is reminiscent of the Labor Government’s decision to close down the overnight fruit fly inspections until Riverland community outrage saw them do a backflip.”

During Parliamentary question time last month, Mr Brokenshire said 2002 research identified the Riverland as the most vulnerable to the impact of phylloxera.

In response, Agriculture Minister Gail Gago said there have been sections of the industry who have been supportive of the changes and also a range of people with concerns.

“Those concerns were passed to me and I then passed them onto the board and asked the board to consider them, which they did,” she said in Parliament.

“The phylloxera board itself, the industry itself, decided that was a reasonable thing so long as the equipment was certified to have not been in a phylloxera area.”

Environment chief denies staff cuts are due to merger STAFF numbers will be reduced to achieve savings with the merger between the Department of Environment and Natural Resources and the Department for Water.

DENR chief executive Allan Holmes said the reduction in staff numbers will not be a result of the merger.

“The merger is about creating a more effective government service,” he said.

“However, it will help provide the efficiencies required to meet the savings measures outlined in the Budget through removing duplication, reducing management overheads and streamlining operations.

“Staff numbers will be reduced to achieve these savings, rather than as a result of the merger.”

Passion for painting Six years is a long time for an artist not to paint but for Riverlander Tony Marianski, he has overcome many challenges and is now ready to pick up the brush once again TONY Marianski loves nothing more than to paint the beautiful River Murray and the mighty cliffs that rise above the water at Big Bend.

So it seems hard to comprehend that the 71-year-old has not picked up a paint brush since 2006.

The talented artist has been through many ups and downs over his lifetime and on every occasion, he has fought through adversity.

It was six years ago that Anatoli Franc Marianski, known as Tony, underwent a life threatening operation to stop prostate cancer.

During this challenging time, it was his creative mind and thoughts of painting the Riverland that helped him get through.

“It was a radical operation,” he said.

“It took a lot of recovery but since then I’ve been completely free of cancer.

“I haven’t painted for six years.

“I’m 72 this year and I want to make the most of my positive recovery by painting the Riverland.

“I love water and that’s what I want to do.”

The pride Tony demonstrates from his home at Big Bend, near Swan Reach, as he shows off his prize winning paintings is enough to inspire anyone to pick up a brush.

Escaping the war BORN in Kiev, Tony and his family were caught up in World War II. “The Germans came and then when they retreated in 1943, on my birthday, they took us with them as labor in Germany,” he said.

“We stayed under German occupation until the end of the war and then we went into displaced persons camps.

“But Joseph Stalin wanted his nationals back and he did away with anybody who had contact with the west, so in the night we escaped into the American zone

BRAD PERRY with our belongings in a wheelbarrow and once we got into the American zone, my mother was very good at knitting and she used to knit skiing sweaters for American wives.”

The daring escape involving Tony, his father, mother and sister opened up new doors for the family, which immigrated to Australia in 1950.

For six years the family lived on a small block in Kilburn before purchasing eight acres of land at Salisbury East to farm pigs, ducks, chickens and poultry.

A love for art AT the age of 20, Tony began to feel the passion of the arts growing, when he attended an arts school and teachers college.

However, his studying was short lived as a car accident involving his father meant Tony was required to run the family business.

After the business hit financial strain following the credit squeeze, Tony came across another passion as a waiter in some of Adelaide’s finest restaurants during the day and designing for Australian Consolidated Industries at night.

It was then Tony found himself making costumes for television shows at a company called Classic Toys.

“I made a dozen Humphries and a dozen Fat Cats every year,” he said.

“We went on tour once up the Peninsula and I did one show as humphrey on stage and I couldn’t stand the claustrophobia of it and the sweating.”

From there Tony returned to the restaurant scene, where he would become one of the most respected people in the industry.

“I knew every VIP in Adelaide,”

An inspiring trip to the Flinders Ranges in the late 1980s helped Tony find the perfect scenery to paint.

diagnosed with prostate cancer in 2006 and was unable to focus on his art.

Life’s art on display

Moving to the river SICK of city life, Tony decided to move to the Riverland and in 1996 found himself living at Big Bend, just outside of Swan Reach.

With plenty of space and living by the River Murray, Tony immersed himself in painting and his love of art continued to grow, winning prizes at local art shows and filling in requests for pieces from people who knew him.

He has also helped neighbour David Le Brun, a former irrigator turned tourist operator.

At David’s animal sanctuary, Tony painted several pieces to sell to tourists and large murals to add colour to the area.

“Tony’s been good to us,” David said.

“We don’t normally have too many talented people in the area like he is.”

However, Tony’s life hit a challenging point when he was

TOMORROW Tony will launch an exhibition at the River Lands Gallery in Berri with 20 of his finest and favourite paintings.

Planning to move closer to his family in Berri, Tony is selling some of the pieces he once planned never to let go of.

“These paintings date back from 1986,” he said.

“The big one is called Reflections on the Murray and it was exhibited in Adelaide in 1986 and I turned down a $12,000 offer because I didn’t want to sell it.”

Tony knows moving further into the Riverland and its surroundings will inspire him to paint again.

He is looking forward to capturing that inspiration of the Riverland and picking up the paint brush once again.

The launch of Tony’s exhibition at the River Lands Gallery in Berri will be at 6.30pm.

Concern over savings MEMBER for Chaffey Tim Whetstone is concerned about a $5 million cut to the budget for the Riverland Regional Hospital development in Berri.

Mr Whetstone said it is hard to understand how $5 million has been saved from the $41 million committment as revealed during last week’s 2012/13 State Budget.

“I don’t want to see any part of the hospital be compromised for the sake of a budget cut,” Mr Whetstone said.

“The reason that I’m questioning the minister is that he has found $5 million dollar saving with a project still 18 months away from completion.

“All the contracts were agreed to under a tender process and I’d like to know where we found a 12 per cent saving.”

Minister Hill said the savings at the Berri based hospital will go to other health projects.

“In Berri, the process of getting competitive tenders for the

C CALLUM TTRIFONOFF construction works on the redevelopment of the hospital has resulted in lower costs for the same work,” he said.

“That means $4.4 million of savings that can go back into other health infrastructure projects without any change at all in the redvelopment work in Berri.

“Sometimes changes can happen on a big project because more design work is needed or there are building delays and sometimes work is completed faster or under budget.”

Meanwhile, the Chaffey Theatre will move into a new ear thanks to State Government funding.

As part of the budget handout, $792,000 in funding boost will go into Country Arts SA’s regional arts centres.

Renmark’s Chaffey Theatre

■ FUNDING CUT: The $41 million Riverland Regional Hospital development budget has been slashed due to savings during the tender process. will now have two digital projection systems installed.

Country Arts SA chief executive officer Steve Saffell said the funding boost is important for regional theatres as it ensures movies will continue to be shown.

For the first time, regional theatres will have 3D capability as well.

“We can continue to show movies which we just wouldn’t be able to do without this sup-

port,” Mr Saffell said.

“We just might be able to get movies in a little bit earlier and that’s a real positive.”

While Mr Saffell said film showings at regional theatres are a sideline for live performances, they have become an important part of Country Arts SA’s service to the Riverland community.

“Filmmaking is an art in itself, I think it’s an important thing that we do,” he said.

Anniversary for local Alcoholics Anonymous A LOXTON based Alcoholics Anonymous (AA) lunchtime meeting is helping people with a number of addictions including gambling and drugs.

Today marks the second anniversary of lunchtime meetings for the group which began in addition to its regular Tuesday night meetings in 2010, to cater for people who have evening commitments.

AA member Colin Kupke said the lunchtime anniversary meeting at the Loxton Uniting Church Hall will acknowledge the support people have through

the organisation.

“It’s been well patronised over the two years with people coming in with other issues as well, some drug related,” Mr Kupke said.

“So we welcome people who are recovering from other addictions or who are seeking help to do so.

“Once we recognise that our lives have become unmanageable, we still need to accept the fact we need help.

“Through this non-judgmental self-help group, we have a common denominator.”

CHARLOTTE ELLIOTT TEEN PERSPECTIVE IT IS unfortunate that so many Riverland businesses have shut down in recent months.

To me, is seems that local owners are being forced to close down their businesses due to a lack of customers and the economic downturn.

Why is this becoming more and more of a problem in the region now?

Why is it so hard to survive as a business in some cases?

Berri Bowland shut down recently.

It is quite sad for the people who enjoyed visiting the place to have some fun with their friends.

Mr Kupke said through the group a rapport is built.

“By sharing our experiences we can deal better with issues of drama or trauma that may lead us back to self destruction,” he said.

“Many of us ‘hit the wall’ before we recognise that we have a problem.

“I didn’t accept I had a problem until it was imperative I do something about it.

“Today I see myself equally as much as a facilitator, yet I still need to be there for my own needs because every time someone new comes to the door they

remind me of where I was and where I would be if I picked up (alcohol) one more time.”

In addition to the Thursday lunchtime gathering, there are a number of meetings across the Riverland including at Kingston on Murray at 2pm and at the Community Health Centre in Renmark at 8pm on Sundays.

There is also a meeting in Loxton at Loxcare at 8pm on Tuesdays.

Mr Kupke said in the early stages of recovery, people often attend several meetings each week.

Where’s the fun for kids?

But why was this necessary?

I haven’t met anyone w who did not enjoy the atmosphere of Bowland.

Why are we losing so much of our region’s attractions, especially for younger people?

There will be nowhere to visit when we are in need of entertainment or a place to go with friends for a laugh.

This seems to be a bit more frequent nowadays in the Riverland.

Remember when Bredl’s in Renmark closed down for good?

That was also very sad for the area.

Now where would people go to see the wonderful creatures of Australia’s backyard?

Maybe some of you will remember the closure of the Big Orange some years ago.

That was a tourist attraction and was an interesting place to explore.

Everyone needs a little entertainment in their lives.

I’m not blaming these businesses.

They didn’t close their doors deliberately to disappoint people.

Perhaps the case for some people is there is not as much support as they would have

liked.

Maybe because some people just can’t afford to spend a lot of money on such places every time they visit.

It would be nice to have some more places to go in the holidays and for birthdays.

We need to make sure that the businesses with attractions left in the region have the support of the community behind them.

It is deeply unfortunate such great tourist places have to result to this but let’s remember to support our local attractions, so they can remain for, hopefully, years to come.

Blood needed WAIKERIE residents can be crowned lifesavers by giving blood when it’s most needed after this Queen’s Birthday long weekend.

The Blood Service is visiting the region between June 13 and 16.

Donor services manager Andrew Scott is urging people to give blood and help save the lives of patients in need.

“The most important blood line this Queen’s Birthday is the one that comes from a blood donor - these donations are literally a lifeline for those who need blood,” Mr Scott said.

“Cancer patients, road trauma victims, burns victims and even unborn babies need blood products immediately after the long weekend.

“Every donation you make can help save up to three lives and only takes an hour of your time.”

Mr Scott said the need for blood was constant and the nation relied on just three percent of the population for its blood.

“One in three Australians will need blood in their lifetime but currently only one in 30 donates,” Mr Scott said.

“Donors will feel like royalty knowing they have saved three lives by donating blood this long weekend.

“With free refreshments available after giving blood, it’s an experience that’s fit for the Queen.”

The Blood Service’s Donor Mobile will be at the Health Service, Lawrie Street Waikerie on: Wednesday, June 13: 12.00pm – 6.30pm Thursday, 14 June: 11.00pm – 8.00pm Friday, 15 June: 8.30am – 2.00pm To donate, call the Blood Service on 13 14 95 or visit donateblood.com.au.

Joint venture to study A JOINT venture beteween TAFE SA and the Flinders University is giving people an opportunity, for those who didn’t finish high school, entry into an undergraduate course at Flinders.

They might want to be a teacher, social worker, health professional, or want to study business, science or the arts and thought it had passed them by.

Completion of this free Flinders/TAFE Foundation Studies Program will give them that opportunity.

Most of the course is done via video conference, so there is no need to travel to Adelaide and it is available at all rural TAFE campuses, including at Renmark and Berri.

Two information sessions will be held at the Rural Clinical School on June 14 at 3pm and 6pm with groups such as ICAN, School & Beyond, Interwork, Mission Australia, as well as the general public, invited.

The course begins on July 10.

“This is a fabulous opportunity for rural communities,” a spokesperson said.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR Late PATS payment resolved A VERY big thank you to the Riverland Weekly for printing my letter about the non payment of my Patient Assistance Transport Scheme (PATS) refund.

By 11am on Thursday, May 24, I received a phone call from the Adelaide office of the PATS department full of apologies, wanting more details about my application for a refund and also about details of my wife’s PATS claims.

We also told them that several new claims were on the way.

We were told that in future, refunds for our claims will be sent within 14 days of receipt of the documents.

It seems that we are not alone in not being paid, as we have had phone calls from a number of local people with the same problem of not receiving PATS payments for over three months.

One lady from the Mallee area rang to ask where to send her claims form as hers was returned to her after sending it to the address on the form at Murray Bridge.

May I say, if you have any prob-

lems, ring the Adelaide number on the PATS form.

If you get the same lady we spoke to, you will be well treated in a very pleasant way.

It is your money that they are holding.

I feel confident that we will now receive our money this coming week.

I was also surprised that a man from Renmark and another from Paringa did not know that a medical bus runs to Adelaide each weekday.

I told them both to ring the Berri office of the Berri Barmera Council.

From there, they would be directed where and how to make contact about departure times both from the Riverland and return from Adelaide.

Last week’s letter to the editor may now be able to help a number of locals.

Thank you to the Riverland Weekly for helping our local community to sort out some of these health problems in regards to payments and transport.

Max Scholz, Barmera.

Riverland Opinion What impact do you think the carbon tax will have on your household?

Asbestos problem?

Puportedly it will cost about $8 million to replace the corroding cement-asbestos water pipes in the Sunlands area.

Was there an analytical due diligence report available to Central Irrigation Trust (CIT) board members in regards to the Sunlands deteriorated cement-asbestos pipeline infrastructure and the potential associated health risks, prior to Sunlands district joining the CIT in September, 2011?

Reportedly, with real health risks only being apparent if the “substance� becomes airborne, then surely after washing clothes and/or overhead watering of vegetables/flowers etc, with contaminated water, the “substance� remaining as residue has the capability of becoming airborne?

Over a period of time how much asbestos may have accumulated/built up in a confined location, such as a home garden?

Incidentally, is cement-asbestos pipe material and filtrate/water now obtained when repairing pipes, cleaning filters etc, to be treated as and disposed of as per for the re-

quirements of asbestos removal/ disposal?

In the five year period before joining CIT, was all waste containing asbestos collected and how and where was it disposed of?

ping at the caravan park, wouldn’t it now be time to look at constructing a footpath?

Surely this would add to the exposure of Waikerie for the people living here and travelling through.

Footpath upgrade needed

Reunion planned

MY QUESTION is to the Loxton Waikerie Council.

Do the council have any plans in the near future to construct a footpath from the corner of Henderson Street and Kirby Street, along Peake Terrace to the Waikerie Caravan Park?

On the corner of Henderson Street you have to step up about nine inches from the road to the footpath.

Could a ramp be put in there?

The first couple of houses have a footpath of sorts but in front of Waikerie Motorcyle and Marine to the Caravan Park, there is nothing.

With the Waikerie Lifestyle Village going ahead in leaps and bounds and with more tourists stop-

IT IS 50 years since the year eight students of 1962 started Loxton High School and so a small group are organising a reunion.

This is planned for Friday, October 5 to Sunday, October 7.

Planning is in its infancy but we will be looking at a tour of the new school as well as drinks and nibbles at the Loxton Hotel on the Friday evening.

Please pass on this date to any of your contacts who have left the district.

Celebrities at library

â– SCAN: Glossop High School student Jack Schell (left) and prefect Nathan Scadden during Library and Information Week.

AS PART of the recent Library and Information Week celebrations, well known community members went to work in a slightly different environment.

Several Riverland identities worked at the Berri Library & Information Centre last month as part of celebrity librarian day.

The local ‘celebrities’ included Member for Chaffey Tim Whetstone, Berri Barmera Council Mayor Peter Hunt, councillor Trevor Chapple, Glossop High School head prefects and local cricketer Matthew ‘Doc’ Clifford.

Berri Library & Information Centre manager Peter Ison said the week was very successful with

the ‘celebrities’ enjoying their involvment. “It gives them an opportunity to see what it’s like to work in a library, it gives them the opportunity to meet people in the community and talk to them and it’s a win-win for us too,� Mr Ison said. “We did try it 10 or so years ago and we hadn’t done it since and it’s been really good.�

Mr Ison said the local identiites found working at the libary to be very benficial. “It’s good for them to see what it’s like serving a library and when they see the library’s really busy, lots of people coming in, it’s pushing our bandwagon a bit,� he said.

LOCAL, national and international indigenous people were recognised as part of the recent National Reconciliation Week 2012 celebrations at Barmera Primary School.

The school celebrated the day by setting up a reconciliation banner and holding a barbecue for staff

and students with local indigenous identities such as Barney Lindsay and the late Jimmy James recognised.

Barmera Primary School student services officer Sam Mitchell said the students embraced the day. “It’s about recognising all the different fields and it’s important to get it

out there so the kids can experience different cultures, different aspects on life and also it helps us to grow as a community,� Mr Mitchell said. “I’ve been to a few classes and spoken about what reconciliation is about, what it’s for and the different ways they can talk about it.�

Tourism funding increase Police told

By BRAD PERRY THE three Riverland councils will commit to the proposed Destination Riverland funding model despite a major increase in financial contribution.

While the Loxton Waikerie council is supportive of Destination Riverland’s plans, council chief executive officer Peter Ackland said there is a significant increase in funding from the $10,000 council previously contributed to the Riverland Tourism Association agreement.

Under the Destination Riverland proposal, the council will provide $47,743 in 2012/13, that will increase to $61,914 in the second year and further to $65,309 in

the third year.

Currently Destination Riverland is seeking a commitment of the first year budget and the funding requirements for years two and three will be reviewed after 10 months.

“We would like them to show us that as they are successful, the reliance on council funding decreases and the ability for

We’ve agreed to fund them for the first 12 months with a review period.

“We’ve agreed on the basis of that proposal to fund them for the first 12 months with a review period at the 10 month period of that first 12 months to determine whether they’ve met the performance indicators that they’ve proposed in their plan,” Mr Ackland said.

“On the basis of

the industry to fund them should increase.”

Local Government will provide 77 per cent of funding for Destination Riverland in its first year, while Potential Industry Partners (PIP) will provide eight per cent and Regional Development Australia is to contribute 14 per cent.

The funding arrangements are outlined in Destination Riverland’s Business and Strategic Plan 2012 to 2015, which is yet to be released to the public.

Mr Ackland said council would have preferred a funding model not based on population.

“If there is an opportunity to review how the funding is split between the three councils, we’d be very keen to talk about it on a more equitable basis, rather than following population statistics,” he said.

The Renmark Paringa and Berri Barmera Councils have also agreed to increase their funding to the tourism body for at least a one year period as well.

to tidy lawn

By CALLUM TRIFONOFF THE Loxton Waikerie Council has passed a motion regarding maintenance of the Waikerie Police Station’s front lawn.

Councillor Jody Flavel raised the issue at the May meeting after noticing the poor state of the lawn.

Council has sent correspondence to SA Police regarding the matter.

“I walked past it at the previous council meeting and it looked a bit ordinary from the side,” Mr Flavel said.

“It was obviously not watered, I thought it could use some smartening up.”

Mr Flavel said by raising the issue with council he is hoping for a general clean-up and watering of the lawn.

“We can only ask that they do something,” he said.

“We can’t force anybody to do anything but we hope they would do the right thing by the community and I’m sure they’ll try.”

■ The RSL sign on the Sturt Highway in Waikerie.

By CALLUM TRIFONOFF THE Waikerie RSL Club has been able to attract extra numbers through the doors of its establishment following the erection of signage on the Sturt Highway.

Even people from outside the region have been attracted to the museum thanks to the sign.

Wakerie RSL Club vice president Geoff Champion said the museum is an important tourist attraction.

“At different times when there’s a lot of people travelling, we have numbers of visitors calling in,” he said.

“It lifts our profile.”

Several displays may also be upgraded and revitalised in a bid to attract more people to the museum, according to Mr Champion.

“We’re working to idolise things and put the stories with items to make it more interesting,” he said.

The latest addition is a war horse display and Mr Champion expects it to be popular.

Zoo show at

Tina Turner show is Simply The Best THE queen of rock and roll Tina Turner’s biggest hits will come to life at the Chaffey Theatre when Rebecca O’Connor (pictured) delivers a tribute show at 8pm on June 30.

Coming off sold out tours of South Africa and Botswana in April, Rebecca tours with a world class band of rock musicians and her two dancers Ashleigh and Hayley, who she affectionately calls her “Rebeccettes�.

This show rocks from start to finish with such iconic hits as Nutbush City Limits, Proud Mary, River Deep, Private Dancer, When the Heartache Is Over, Better Be Good To Me and of course her anthem, Simply the Best.

When she last performed in Australia, she received standing ovations at every performance.

Rebecca grew up in County Cork, Ireland, and was introduced to Tina Turner’s music through her parents as a young girl.

She immediately loved everything about Tina and knew most of

her songs word perfect as a young girl. “When I first heard Tina it was like a volcano went off inside me,�

Rebecca said. “I knew then this amazing woman would influence me forever.�

Rebecca joined her first band at the age of 17 and incorporated Tina’s songs into the band’s set list.

When she won a local karaoke competition singing a Tina Turner song, her mother entered her into the European Stars in Their eyes competition and she went on to take out the title in front of over 33 million viewers.

Rebecca looks and sounds like Tina Turner on stage but she is adamant there is only one Tina Turner. “She is absolutely amazing and I admire and respect her so much and I hope that I can bring her power, energy and magic to each and every show I perform,� Rebecca said. “Most performers don’t have what she has and never will.�

Don’t miss your chance to see Rebecca with her wild hair, sparkling mini dresses, red lipstick and stiletto heels in a performance described as Simply The Best.

Weekly Entertainer’s riverfront dream

L

This week’s Feature properties

Page

15

OCATED in the Beaumont Subdivision, you will find a three bedroom elevated home on a double block with a view of the river from the front rooms.

This home features an open plan living area with a modern well-appointed kitchen complete with Wall Oven, Schott Ceran glass hotplates (operated by touch) with glass splash backs and a slide out pantry.

The main bedroom has an ensuite, built-in robe and a fantastic view of the river.

Climate control inside the home is provided by a Fujitsu Reverse Cycle Split System Airconditioner and there are ceiling fans in the lounge room and main bedroom.

Large shady trees at the front of the home keep the sun off the house, maintaining perfect living conditions all year round.

Double sliding doors leading from the living area to the full length low maintenance front deck will also allow the evening

breeze to move freely through the home.

Two levels of living are available with the ground floor providing a third bedroom, or utility room, and the second bathroom and laundry.

Imagine relaxing with a glass of wine while entertaining on the front balcony under the shade of the gum trees all while keeping an eye on the river.

No need to tow the boat anymore, store it in the 11m x 3.3m x 6metre shed with concrete floor, lights and power.

A workshop area is also available for those handyman activities.

A 3m x 3m garden shed is also located adjacent to the driveway to store the lawn mower and other gardening tools.

A concrete slab at the rear of Lot 2 is the ideal spot for family or friends to park their caravan when they come to stay and then use the downstairs bathroom as their own.

Additional undercover car parking or an entertaining area is available at ground level.

The rear balcony has its own sundeck awning with a wind sensor – what a great area to enjoy a coffee in the morning sun.

Well placed lighting in the balustrade surrounding the front deck and stairs, provides mood and guidance lighting when required.

While this home is only metres from a public boat ramp, the property has its very own concrete boat ramp set next to the wellmanicured lawns and terraced front yard.

Did I mention the three kilowatt solar System that has been recently installed to assist with power bills?

All this and more located a short walk to the ferry so you can walk into town for the paper, ice-cream or a meal and drinks without having to start the car.

Properties of this calibre don’t come along very often so secure your riverfront holiday home or permanent residence before it is too late.

Don’t think – do - call to arrange your own personal inspection.

Superdogs inspired to 136 point victory over Pooraka at Lyrup

PH 8582 5500 for more details.

â– AN inspiring best on ground effort from Shane Hannagan and some amazing shooting for goal heralded a brilliant return to form by a passenger free Riverland Superdogs line-up that thrashed Pooraka by 136 points in AFL Masters Football at Lyrup last Sunday.

Some of the majors from players like Hannagan, Mark Neumann, Sid Norton and

Nathan Willmott were out of this world.

Mind you, one of Hannagan’s attempts to upstage Neumann’s gem also was out on the full.

A groin injury, he claimed, contributed to his only error of the afternoon.

Shane Healy made a conspicuous return from Western Australia with welcome fresh ideas as playing coach and

was a member of a long best player list that also included Hannagan, in form Darren Tieste, evasive Ken Karpany, Willmott with five goals, ruck star Peter Hoffmann and gorging himself on Willmott’s generous handballs, Norton with four goals.

The Superdogs play Gawler next round at Tanunda Oval on Sunday, June 17.

RIVERLAND INDEPENDENTS - ROUND EIGHT THE OTHER GAMES

MATCH OF THE ROUND

THOSE who witnessed Ramco’s first half against Brown’s Well last round would know how well this team is playing.

It has taken several games for the Roosters to find their feet but the team is really starting to link well across the ground.

This round Ramco faces Paringa who are without a loss this season.

Despite a long injury list including up to eight players, the Swans have enough depth to continue to inflict pain on each team it plays.

After hobbling off with an ankle injury last round, Bryce Matthews is likely to play, while Mark McDonald will be a welcome return for the Roosters.

Paringa continues to be plagued by injuries with Mick Miller, Nick Dillon and Damien Heinicke part of the long list of players sitting on the sidelines.

Daniel Donnelly was a stand out against Brown’s Well, having more centre clearances than any other player on the ground.

Andrew Lloyd or Chris Gardner may start on Donnelly.

The ruck contest between Jamie O’Callaghan and Tom Frahn, or Joel Watson, should be pretty even.

Max Baddack has been explosive up forward but expect his influence on the match to be minimal with Jono Wood matching up on him.

League leading goalkicker Dean Hill was quiet last round with just one goal and solid Ramco defender Damien Crowe would be a good match up there.

Expect plenty of speed from the Roosters’ Josh Murphy.

Ramco coach Andrew Bevan said the game plan is to be direct with the football. “My aim is to go down the corridor because they are good on the wings and in open space,� he said.

Paringa coach Arrod Westley said even though the team is undefeated, he remains cautious. “We’re not playing really good football at the moment,� he said. “I’ll just let our blokes go head to head with them and if we have to match up on them we will.�

This should be a classic midfield battle and the team that can gain more centre clearances will ultimately claim the match.

Paringa should win in an evenly fought contest at home.

Brown’s Welll v BSR AS Brown’s Well coach Lance Degenhardt puts it, the only way is up.

The Bombers slumped to bottom position on the ladder following a 108 point drubbing at the hands of Ramco last round.

Blanchetown/Swan Reach continue to play one of the best styles of football in the competition.

This contest is top versus bottom.

The Bombers will be bolstered by the return of brothers Digby and Jock McNeil, while Dallas Wall will need to test his injury before being given the green light for this round.

For the Redbacks, their defence is impacted with the loss of tall Mark Coleman through injury.

He will join Tom Sobey and Chris Giles who are already on the injury list.

The question for Brown’s Well is can it stop midfield duo Dale Payne and Troy Cowland?

Early indications are that Pat Flavel may get the job on Payne, while Andrew Schultz is

THE OTHER GAMES

East Murray v Wunkar WUNKAR notched up its first win in comprehensive fashion against a depleted Moorook-Kingston last round.

The Bulldogs have slowly been building and improving each game.

East Murray has been inconsistent and plagued by injury.

There is only one win between the two teams on the ladder but East

Moorook v Lyrup A PERCENTAGE boosting win for Lyrup this round could help its chances for a top four position.

Moorook-Kingston is struggling to fill a team with a number of players carrying injuries.

This could be the ideal time for Lyrup to pounce.

The Warriors are hopeful that Todd Griffin will be back this round but key player Russell Boatswain is still out with an

Murray, we feel, has been more impressive to date.

The Tigers will include Kenneth Dixon and Aaron Pligl in the lineup this round and possibly Nick Stoneham, while Michael Allan is out injured.

East Murray coach Darren Zadow has put the boots on again in recent weeks and been solid in defence where he may need to stand in the way of fellow coach Lincoln Evans up forward.

Zak Schubert and Chris Rudiger

ankle injury.

Ryan Pietrolaj has transferred to Barmera-Monash and is a big loss.

For Lyrup, the club says Travis Wilson will not play again this season, while Nathan Willmott is expected to play despite pulling up sore.

Ken Karpany may find himself followed by Kyle Quayle, while Ash Boatswain and Matt Raison will take on Troy Harrison, who returns this round, in the ruck.

Lyrup has been well served by colts Bradley Cook and Oshay Everuss.

Brad Healy may match up on Joey Abdulla if he

are names you are likely to continue to hear each week.

Wunkar’s Daniel Evans is finding form and could run with Dixon in the middle.

It’s good to see Jason Goodes back to his best and Kym Jackmann booted four goals up forward on the weekend.

Wunkar is building a competitive young team but it’s a long way to East Murray and the Tigers play their home ground very well.

East Murray by seven goals.

plays. The Warriors also have Englishman Harry Pitcher, who is new to Aussie Rules.

Warrior coach Cecil Rigney said his team will play hard despite a lack of numbers. “We’ll still give a few teams the scare,� he said.

Lyrup coach Shane Healy said the result is not a certainty. “We’d be hoping for a win but it will be a close contest I think,� he said.

Given that MoorookKingston is really struggling to find fit players, Lyrup should win by more than 10 goals.

more than capable of running with Cowland.

Returning to full fitness, young Jamie Tanner has been a real bonus and Jed Martinson may attract the attention of Bryce Victor with his recent form.

Geordie Franks has found plenty of space across the ground for the Bombers and Kyle Coleman is likely to tag him.

The tall Brown’s Well forward line may cause some headaches, according to BSR coach Peter Zadow. “We are probably going to struggle height wise with the loss of Mark Coleman,� he said. “I’m hoping the boys can use the corridor. “I think the key to our game is link-up football through the midfield.�

Brown’s Well coach Lance Degenhardt said more players need to contribute on game day. “We know it’s a rebuilding side but it’s disappointing at times with the overall attitude of the players,� he said. “When we put it together we do look absolutely brilliant.�

BSR by more than 15 goals.

MALLEE FOOTBALL LEAGUE INTERLEAGUE

Mallee v Mid South East THE Mallee team will be looking to exact revenge on Mid South East after last yearâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s interleague loss.

With home ground advantage at Pinnaroo, Mallee boasts a formidable line-up comprising a large portion of Border Down/Tintinara players.

The Crowsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; have been the form team of the Mallee competition led by Josh Keller, who was best on ground for the Mallee in last yearâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s interleague loss.

Josh Richardson and brothers Clint and Lachlan are also in the team.

Big man Chris Gregory and Kevin Kock will be strong marking forward options.

Patrick Barrett may be available for the match, while Ben Hooper has

been in good touch.

Jarran Crabb and Chad Kennett are younger players who will be keen to impress if given the opportunity.

Karoonda will have the likes of Zakk Bullard and defender Jarred Graetz representing the Magpies in the Mallee team.

The inclusion of Ben Quinn is a bonus and Corey Knight is a stand out midfield.

Josh Rudiger is a chance to play ruck in this clash.

The Mallee team will also be benefited by the inclusion of Lameroo defender Billy McNeilly, as well as Matt Ridgway and Andrew Purchase.

A number of Murrayville players feature in the squad with Michael Worsman likely to play in the middle.

Todd Jones is solid in defence or ruck and Nick Noblett is a reliable defender.

Daniel Fry has been kicking multiple goals and Nick Rees has also been in good form.

Patrick Casey would be an automatic selection after a standout performance last year but may struggle with injury.

Lachlan Wilson is another youngster who will provide pace if given the chance.

Ryan Nickolls will play a key forward role if he can prove his fitness and Chad Nickolls has been in strong form rucking for Pinnaroo this year.

Tyron Bennetts has battled against the odds in Pinnarooâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s midfield and will provide some toughness if he plays.

Home ground advantage must count for something and we are predicting a much more competitive effort from the Mallee League this time around.

CHARLIE’S SPORTS GOSS WITH GRAHAM CHARLTON

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

Junior hockey stars at champs

Eight ball interest grows

■ GREAT STOP: A goal keeper tries her best effort to stop the goal in the A grade women’s hockey match between Loxton and Waikerie on Friday night.

■ HOCKEY takes a break this June long weekend while local juniors are in Adelaide with Barossa/Riverland teams at the SA Zone Championships.

In last round’s A grade matches, Waikerie ended Loxton’s unbeaten run in the men’s competition at headquarters on Friday night when a determined first half gave it a 3-0 lead.

A strong second half defensive effort led by Mark Kroehn then held the final score to 3-1, despite an improved Loxton effort.

Waikerie was really up and about from the start with a host of contributors including consistent Jason Redemski, Rowan Hope, Caleb Catford and Todd McFarlane.

A depleted Loxton simply could not match its opponent’s enthusiasm and momentum with Sean Burgess, Zac Schubert and Nathan Fielke having to work overtime to try and work their side into the contest.

Also on Friday night, Loxton’s A grade women’s team squared the ledger with a 4-1 victory against Waikerie controlling the game in much

the same way as the Waikerie men had done.

Loxton also had a number of players prominent including Billie Jo Hammerstein, Tara Allister, Haylee Symens and Belinda Stoneman as it worked its way to a 3-0 advantage on the way to a final score of 4-1.

Rachael Taylor, Janine Frost and Kristen Pick were best for Waikerie.

On Saturday back at Glassey Park, Renmark won both A grade matches against Berri, 4-0 in the men’s clash and 3-1 in the womens.

Both matches were keenly contested despite the final score lines.

Renmark, with Callum Bender scoring two goals, Stephen Cresp solid in goal and Shaun Crouch and Corbin Bartsch extremely active, had too many contributors giving Berri a 4-0 half time lead.

To its credit, Berri slowed the contest down in the second half and with Dylan Couzner, Alex Arnold, Scott Moldovan and Nathan Bradford showing the way, it was able to engage Renmark in an end to end seesawing

battle even if it was unable to find the goals.

The women’s clash followed the mould for the weekend.

Renmark started like rockets and after some early inaccuracy went on to a 3-0 lead only for Kris Weir to grab one back for Berri late in proceedings.

Renmark had a host of good players including Megan Taylor, Lisa Pilgrim, Alison Giles and Lauren Scott, whereas Berri had some trojans in Jen Kiel, Jane Hustler, Kate and Emma Burge amongst the best performers.

When the competition resumes on Friday, June 15, Waikerie and Renmark will contest A grade matches at Glassey Park, while the next day all the action transfers to Loxton with junior games from 9am followed by the Loxton versus Berri senior clashes later in the afternoon.

In other hockey news, promising Renmark junior Dalton Casey has been selected in the SA Schoolboys team to play in the National Carnival in Hobart in August.

Close finish in local soccer

■ RENMARK Olympic found something like the form that made it the 2012 premiership favourite after a successful Riverland-Sunraysia preseason competition, to hold tearaway ladder leader Berri River Rangers to a 2-2 draw at Berri last Sunday.

Berri had early chances but its discipline and team work up forward from previous outings was absent and only an Olympic own goal gave the ladder leader a 1-0 advantage at half time.

Olympic was able to subdue the Rangers customary midfield dominance and Sante Fe Trail when Marcus Woods goaled at the 53 minute mark and $4000 Worth of Extras including 18” Alloy the brilliant Lenny Gadaleta Wheels, Rear View Camera, Rear Seat scored four minutes later an Entertainment, Privacy Glass, Leatherette Seats, Leather Steering Wheel and Gear Knob. upset loomed.

■ COMPETE: Barmera’s Glen Carter will be one of the local hopefuls at this year’s Open Eight Ball singles Championships in Berri.

however and in the end it was veteran Paul Eleftheriadis who put a stop to a wasteful afternoon and scored the equaliser.

Adam Vallelonga and Tyson Schrapel were named best for Berri and Gadaleta and goalkeeper Mehmet Kavlakoglu, who made a number of brilliant saves, for Renmark.

In the other game, Barmera United, well led by Josh Tsorotiotis and James Wallace, broke down an early Loxton United resistance to win 8-1.

Colby Cram and Joe Perre stood out for Loxton.

Following the 2-2 result in the men’s Berri versus Renmark clash, the B grade and women’s matches between the two clubs also ended up as draws with an identical result, 2-2.

In the women’s game, Ebony Hoffmann, Marnie Stewart, and with both goals, Brianna Walden, stood out for Berri. The goal scorers Elif Sen and Renee Van Der Hoek were named best for Renmark.

Down through the grades, the closest match was in under 14s when Berri and Barmera tied on 1-1 with the best players in the game being Robert Wesley, Sam Giahgias and Nick Kostantakis.

In fine individual performances, Thomas Mitchell and Rajab Quambari both scored five goals in that competition for Renmark and in under 16s, Branden Persinos scored three for Renmark.

There is a local bye this weekend with junior teams in Adelaide for the State Championships.

Loxton and Renmark claim netball wins ■ LOXTON reacted strongly to a disappointing performance a fortnight earlier against rival and undefeated ladder leader Renmark by producing a far more even team effort to defeat Berri 67-52 in A1 netball last Friday night.

Sisters Skye and Amber George were outstanding for Loxton.

On the other hand, Berri certainly played its part in the high scoring affair and with players like Taylee Howard and Nicole Hall continuing to star, it is not difficult to see this young unit developing into a serious premiership threat come the business end of the season.

Jo Haynes and Anita Modlinski showed the way

for Renmark as it defeated Barmera 54-40 in the other game.

Barmera is another side rebuilding, perhaps, to better things at the back end of the 2012 program and had Cobie Drogemuller and Sheri Beech playing impressively.

After a bye this weekend while representative teams are in Adelaide for the Country Carnival, A1 matches on Friday, June 15 will see Berri playing Barmera, Loxton North up against Loxton and Renmark with the bye.

Last year at the Country Carnival the Riverland senior side finished fourth overall and it will need to be top four again this year in a 10 team competition to qualify for

the finals.

The toughest opponents in the competition at ETSA Park are likely to include Western Border, Port Augusta, Northern Areas and North Eastern.

At under 17 level a good majority of the Riverland team is playing either A1 or A2 division here at home but amongst 23 teams it will need a strong consistent showing to finish either first or second in its division to qualify for the finals.

The same applies to the under 15s in a 28 team competition, while in the under 13s a number of the girls involved will approach the city trip with confidence having only recently been in Adelaide with SAPSASA teams.

The number of cars set to appear at this weekend’s Fink Desert Race.

Race loses its status but not its appeal...

Tackling the Finke

■ ADVENTURE: Renmark’s Brad Gallard will participate in yet another Finke Desert Race on the weekend. in this country after Gallard set the scene initially by bringing the first truck here.

There are other trophy trucks at Finke this weekend.

In fact, after SA’s Greg Gartner won the race with his Extreme 2WD Ford in 2011, there has been a doubling in the number of entries to 21 in that class.

Amongst them is the Waikerie connection of Bernard

(NT) and Robert (SA) Gwynne with their Chevrolet, while the highly successful Peter Kittle team, boasting its multi Australian champion David Fellows, has branched out into the class after importing the first Jimco Hilux Trophy Truck.

Renmark’s Geoff and Liz Roe will miss this year’s event where they have previously finished high in the placings in their Geidser Bros

Truck because they are enjoying an overseas trip that they gained as an award in their business.

Also noticed amongst the bike entries is Loxton’s Hayden Wall.

From a Riverland-Waikerie club point of view however, most of the travel for this weekend will be towards Sea Lake.

Amongst those expected to appear are Toby Francombe with Matt Ridley and Michael Surfield, Lindsay Foster and James Lochert, John Schultz with David and Margaret Schultz and Scott Schiller who will be partnered

by Sea Lake navigator Cameron McClelland.

Cars driven by Chris Weston and Matt Weston form another Riverland connection.

And of course the Haby brothers from Mannum, who dominated the off road scene in their vehicles last season, will be there as members of the Riverland-Waikerie club doing what they do best.

Not only will the Haby brothers make life difficult for the other competitors but there will be some family rivalry for each other as well.

Clare rider takes out Riverland memorial award ■ THERE has been confusion regarding the winners of the annual Tom Perry and Bob Fisher Memorial awards at the 2012 Tour of the Riverland cycling event.

The Tom Perry presentation goes to the Riverland rider who is first to finish and the Bob Fisher award to the local who records the fastest time.

Soon after the race ended, it was considered that Nathan Gregurke, who finished in 29th position in the 81 kilometre handicap race, covering the distance in one hour, 58 minutes and four seconds, had taken out both awards.

However in an official results list initially issued, the first and fastest Riverland rider appeared as Chris Dalla Valle.

Who is Chris Dalla Valle people may ask?

Well, Chris has not competed with the local club since leaving the area some years ago but prior to that had been an active member of the Riverland Cycling Club (RCC).

He now lives in Clare where there is no cycling club, so has apparently maintained an association with the Riverland club as a satellite member.

Hence, he was able to enter this year’s Tour Of The Riverland under the RCC banner.

In a final issue of results from the Norwood Cycling Club, Dalla Valle is in 26th place in a time of two hours, four minutes and fours seconds, meaning he is the winner of the Tom Perry award with Gregurke taking out the Bob Fisher trophy.

The Riverland had three other current riders enter the race, Colin Gordon, Lee Rasheed and Glen O’Brien, while two former members Hamish MacKirdy, who finished sixth, and John Danvers, 71st, also took part.

MacKirdy and Danvers are current Norwood members.

There is no doubt our Riverland Cycling weekend, recognised as the richest and biggest in the state, continues to attract class fields.

The 2012 Saturday senior tour included Alex Edmondson,

only a day after he was selected in the Australian Olympic team and a number of other national representatives including race winner Robert-Jon McCarthy, Scott McPhee, Ed Bissaker, Miles Scotson and Jessica Mundy.

Previous winners of the race Pat Marcucci, who finished second to McCarthy, Russell Gill, Chris Luxton and Michael Smith were also back.

Reflecting on other results from the weekend, McCarthy added his second fastest time in a row to his tour victory and then on Sunday in the 40 kilometre handicap event, made it a double again with another first to the line, fastest time effort.

Jump on mice before they get the jump on you Land holders should be monitoring for mice activity in storage areas and in their fields. Mice can be devastating to newly sown crops so a well planned monitoring and baiting program is a must. Speak to your local agronomist or NRM Officer for advice about mice activity monitoring and bait supply. Ensure that you have bait on hand so that you can knock down numbers before they become a serious problem.

Yellow daisy bush?

Could be boneseed.

Boneseed is a priority weed for the SA MDB NRM Board. It is small perennial shrub that is highly invasive, very hardy and has significant impact on areas of native vegetation. There is currently grant money available for contractors to conduct control on both private and public lands. Speak to your local NRM officers for assistance on control of this weed.

“But on Sunday he really showed his class.

“His was a terrific ride in the 40km race and I reckon he is a good chance for a medal in London.”

As far as Barry Skinner is concerned, I have often made light of his announcements of intended

The Tom Perry presentation goes to the Riverland rider who is first to the finish.

McCarthy, who is from Ireland and in the SA Institute of Sport team, took home over $11,000 for his weekend’s work.

On Saturday night at the Berri Resort Hotel, the roller championships was won by Russell Gill in senior men, Mundy in senior women, Callum Scotson for back-to-back victories in junior men and Sarah Cutts in junior women.

In junior events, Matthew Gassner finished first and scratch marker Matt Holmes third and fastest in Saturday’s under 17 38 kilometre handicap.

In Sunday’s 40 kilometre handicap, Mildura’s Tyler Beruldsen was the winner with Holmes completing the weekend’s fastest time double.

Olympian Alexander Edmondson’s performance over the weekend was interesting.

He started from scratch on both days and finished 56th in one hour, forty two minutes and thirty four seconds in the tour on Saturday but on Sunday was second to McCarthy in the 40 kilometre handicap.

“I have no doubt that on Saturday he was still on cloud nine after only learning of his selec-

retirement from his role over the year’s but I believe he means it this time after his long term health issues have resulted in several recent stays in hospital.

Talking to him however, he is upbeat about the future of the event with indications at last that other people may be prepared to take an increased role in its organisation.

“I will come back in some capacity next year,” he said.

“But I am no longer able to take on the overall organisation of the weekend.”

A Norwood Cycling Club media release probably said it best.

“A special thank you needs to be acknowledged to the long term event manager for the Riverland weekend, Barry Skinner and his wife Barb on the occasion of their last ‘Berri’ for their fantastic support of the Tour of the Riverland event over all the years of their involvement.”

NRM officers of the SA MDB NRM Board are out doing the annual roadside control of weeds. A priority is African boxthorn.

Landholders with African boxthorn on their property may receive a notice in the mail encouraging them to undertake control activities. Removing this declared plant will maintain property productivity and reduce spread to neighbouring areas.

Be careful not to confuse this weed with Australian boxthorn, a native plant. Your local NRM officer can assist you with plant identification and control options.

Yellow burrweed, a pain in your pocket Yellow burrweed is an annual herb introduced from America. It is a major crop weed in Australia therefore it is important to keep this weed off clean properties or recognise and destroy new infestations before they become established. It is highly competitive and can significantly reduce crop yields as well as contaminate grain. Report any outbreaks to your local NRM officer.

Information on the weed species mentioned can be found on the Board website at www.samdbnrm.sa.gov.au If you think that you have discovered a new weed infestation then please contact the SA MDB NRM Board at Murray Bridge on 8532 9100 or Mount Barker on 8391 7500.

■ REFERENCE has been made previously to the controversy surrounding the Finke Desert Race losing its round of the Australian Off Road Championship status this weekend as it is being returned to the Mallee Rally being held simultaneously at Sea Lake.

Well it would seem the lure of tackling the Finke Desert has retained interest in the event with over 80 of the leading cars and over 500 bikes in Alice Springs ready to take on the torturous outback challenge.

At Sea Lake numbers are up as 120 cars chase the titles on offer.

From the Riverland-Waikerie Club Brad Gallard with his USA Geiser Bros Trophy Truck is back at Finke, the scene of some of his most spectacular runs in the Extreme 2WD class.

With him will be his regular navigator Scott Modistach, while Rick Geiser has journeyed from the USA to be part of the team.

Geiser has previously expressed his enthusiasm for the Finke classic but he is possibly also here to associate with a growing market for his vehicles

Warriors seek help for player shortage

around and just see how they are going for numbers.

“I’d rather play the guys who are coming out week in, week out but the other week we played without a bench and it makes it hard.”

This year the Riverland Football League introduced a ruling enabling players who are not picked in the A grade or B grade competitions to play with Independent teams via a permit.

Rigney said the ruling may help the Warriors field a full team this round.

“The RFL has brought that up about doing that, where they can come and play for you,” he said.

By BRAD PERRY MOOROOK-KINGSTON will enquire to other Riverland Football League club’s to throw them a lifeline for this weekend’s match against Lyrup with the club struggling to field a full team.

Player unavailability and a number of injuries last round may see the team with less than 15 players to choose from.

Moorook-Kingston coach Cecil Rigney said he will speak to other Riverland clubs ahead of this weekend’s game.

“It could be a lifeline for us just until we get some of our blokes back and it could help Barmera-Monash, Loxton or even Loxton North out too,” he said.
