United by a love of the game... The Warwick Wolves U17’s celebrated their weekend grand final win in the Toowoomba Football comp - made up of Stanthorpe United and Warwick Wolves they played in Toowoomba after the local comp went into hiatus due to COVID-19. Like the Stanthorpe United Premier League team they travelled away every week - will the two teams continue to play in Toowoomba?

Project progress By Jeremy Sollars The community-owned commercial entity behind the proposed Emu Swamp Dam for Stanthorpe says sales of future water from the dam to primary producers have been completed and that its board is “very comfortable” with how the project is progressing. Granite Belt Water is the ‘proponent’ or driver of Emu Swamp Dam - otherwise known as the Granite Belt Irrigation Project (GBIP) and also says work on other key aspects such as land resumptions for the dam’s pipeline is continuing. But a final decision on the overall commencement of the project is yet to be made, with a potential construction start tentatively drawn in for mid-2021, after an initial projection that construction tenders would be issued in mid-2020 having been revised to February next year.
As the wider Southern Downs and Granite Belt regions continue to respond to the economic and production challenges of ongoing drought a new dam at Emu Swamp on the Severn River south-west of Stanthorpe has been promoted as a major future generator of jobs and water security for the Stanthorpe area. To date the project has been costed at $84 million, with the Federal Government having committed $47m and the Queensland Government $13m, with the remaining $24m in the form of ‘in principle’ private contributions from primary producers on the Granite Belt who would purchases allocations of water and contribute to the cost of construction and ongoing maintenance of the dam and associated pipeline infrastructure. Water from the dam would be transported to those properties via a pipeline network, the fi-
nal route of which is yet to be fully determined. Granite Belt Water chief executive officer Lloyd Taylor this week told the Free Times the company had finished water sales, with close to 50 producers having paid their initial investment contribution of four per cent of the capital construction costs. Mr Taylor said “a couple” of producers who had initially expressed interest in purchasing future water supplies from the dam had since withdrawn but all initial financial contributions had now been received from 48 individual producers, across the horticultural industry. Details of those producers remain confidential, with Mr Taylor saying their contributions had been placed in a trust account, with the current work on the project being funded by an advance payment of $6 million made by the Queensland Government earlier in 2020. Three major hurdles still to be cleared on
Emu Swamp Dam are land resumptions associated with the pipeline route, final environmental approvals, and the involvement in the project by the Southern Downs Regional Council. The pipeline network would transport water potentially both south to the Ballandean area and north as far as Thulimbah and Pozieres and Amiens, including to farmers east of the New England Highway on that northern section of the route. Consulting firm the Minsol Group is currently engaging with landholders who could be affected by land acquisitions for the pipeline, the costs of which would be met by Granite Belt Water which would acquire the land itself. But any such land acquisitions could also be carried out by the Queensland Government under its public infrastructure powers. Continued page 3

Southern Downs Regional councillors last week voted in favour of a revamped Australia Day Awards format with new categories to recognise the region’s most deserving and outstanding citizens. A spokeswoman said “the revised format will honour ten community members for their services across the northern and southern regions under a fresh new look Australia Day awards system”. “In previous years, two main awards were handed out, but in 2021 Council will call for nominations in the following award categories: Citizen of the Year Award - northern region Citizen of the Year Award - southern region Junior Citizen of the Year Award - northern region Junior Citizen of the Year Award - southern region Sportsperson of the Year - northern region Sportsperson of the Year - southern region Junior Sportsperson of the Year - northern region Junior Sportsperson of the Year - southern region Cultural/Community Event or Person of the Year Award - northern region

Event or Person of the · Cultural/Community Year Award - southern region “In addition, one of these recipients will also be named the overall Southern Downs Citizen of the Year,” the spokeswoman said. “Locals are being urged to recognise those whose tireless efforts or outstanding achievements deserve to be celebrated and shared.” Mayor Vic Pennisi said the awards are “the perfect opportunity to nominate those people from the region who are consistently going above and beyond the call of duty”. “It’s been a really tough year for everyone in the community but you can guarantee there was still an army of people out there giving and working tirelessly for their community and their peers,” he said. “So many hard workers go unrecognised and this is our chance to say thanks and well done. “I’d urge everyone to pick up a nomination form and bring our attention to someone who deserves a real pat on the back.” “Nominations are now open and winners will be announced in the lead up to Australia Day 2021. “The award recipients will receive their awards at ceremonies in Warwick and Stan-
thorpe on Australia Day 2021. “Council will also run citizenship ceremonies in Warwick and Stanthorpe on Tuesday 26 January 2021 for those residents who are becoming new Australians.” Nomination forms can be found on the homepage at www.sdrc.qld.gov.au or at either of Council’s offices in Warwick and Stanthorpe. Nominations will close at 5pm on Friday 8 January 2021.

The editor’s desk It is pleasing to be able to provide an update this week on progress with the Granite Belt Irrigation Project (GBIP), otherwise known as the Emu Swamp Dam. The community-owned commercial entity backing the dam, Granite Belt Water, is pressing ahead with key elements of the pre-construction work which include finalisation of water supply contracts with participating producers in the Stanthorpe region. It is anticipated that construction may commence by the middle of 2021, pending the reaching of other mission-critical milestones such as determination of the pipeline route and completion of environmental assessments. The Southern Downs Regional Council also has to make final decisions around the level and nature of its involvement, including with respect to water allocations and a potential town water component of the dam for Stanthorpe. It must also be acknowledged that the State and Federal governments have committed to major funding, and advance State payments are enabling the current work to be undertaken. While there remains a lot of work to be done to fully bring the project to fruition there is no doubt that Emu Swamp Dam has the potential to significantly upgrade the overall level of water security for Stanthorpe region primary producers - the key point being those producers have committed to private contributions for the dam to the tune of nearly $24 million. That’s a major funding commitment in anyone’s language, and it shows they are willing to well and truly put their collective shoulder to the financial wheel to make this dam happen.

China export ‘silence’... By Jeremy Sollars Warwick’s John Dee abattoir has received no further update from Chinese authorities about the potential resumption of beef exports to China after exports were suspended in September. As previously reported China announced it would suspend exports from John Dee after claiming to have detected the substance chloramphenicol in part of a beef shipment from the abattoir, one of Warwick’s largest employers and the oldest, single-family owned meat processor in Australia. In synthetic form chloramphenicol is an animal antibiotic banned throughout most of the world, but can also occur naturally in stock feeds. The Chinese authorities said in September the substance was detected during routine testing at the port of Ningbo but John Dee would not rule out the possibility of a “false positive” result having been returned, and had requested secondary testing of the beef in question in China.
John Dee Executive Director John Hart this week told the Free Times the company had received no further update on the situation from
Chinese trade authorities but remained hopeful exports would resume, noting that a variety of Australian export products are currently
the subject of trade restrictions in relation to China. He said the company had conducted its own extensive testing of product still in Australia which had been designated as part of the original shipment in question and no positive results for chloramphenicol had been returned. Mr Hart said while operations had been partially scaled back as a result of the China export situation the abattoir continues to service other export markets including Korea and Japan. He also said work is continuing on significant upgrades to the Warwick plant including cold store facilities. “Our biggest overall challenge remains the drought situation and cattle supply and prices - particularly as producers continue to restock,” Mr Hart said. “We remain hopeful that our exports to China will resume but at the end of the day it’s one market that has been affected and we continue to service our other markets.”
Emu Swamp Dam plans ‘progressing’: GB Water From page 1 For its part the Southern Downs Regional Council could secure a component of water from Emu Swamp Dam for emergency town water supplies for Stanthorpe, which continues to currently be supplied with town water from Connolly Dam in Warwick, via road tanker operations down the New England Highway. The council’s involvement is likely to be dependent on its agreeing to transfer unused allocations from Storm King Dam to Emu Swamp to bolster the overall storage capacity of Emu Swamp to the projected 12,000 megalitres. A council spokeswoman this week told the Free Times councillors “will be considering a range of matters in relation to Emu Swamp Dam over a period of time”. “It is expected that Council will be in position to consider and decide on several matters at the 25 November and 16 December meetings,” the spokeswoman said. The spokeswoman did not provide further detail on those agenda items but the agenda for next Wednesday’s meeting on the 25th is expected to be publicly available on the council website by Monday. The Free Times understands Southern Downs councillors this week received a confidential briefing from Queensland Government officials on water security issues relating to the wider council region. Granite Belt Water CEO also told the Free Times this week the dam proceeding is not dependent on the council’s involvement but it would be warmly welcomed. Responsibility for water in the new cabinet announced by Premier Annastacia Palaszczuk following her state election victory appears to have been taken out of the former Natural Resources portfolio, with Gladstone MP Glenn Butcher the new Minister for Regional Development, Manufacturing and Water.
The Emu Swamp Dam project still requires final environmental approvals to be issued by the Queensland Government, including assessments of any threatened species present within the dam catchment area. Lloyd Taylor this week told the Free Times ‘winter’ ecological surveys within the dam’s footprint zone had been completed and similar ‘spring-summer’ surveys are currently underway and earlier assessments from the mid 2000’s are also being updated. At a glance ... Projected benefits of Emu Swamp Dam include 250 jobs during the construction phase, and 700 new full-time agriculture and supporting jobs in the Granite Belt region. It is forecast to add 273 hectares of new irrigated agriculture area and significantly enhance the productivity of 1380ha of currently irrigated area, and to Increase the annual value of the Granite Belt’s gross farm production by $68 million per year At just under $24 million the proposed in-

Local businesses win big By Tania Phillips The hardworking team at Weddings and Events Warwick and Blooms of Warwicks are still celebrating after a hectic day of awards and work earlier this month. The business came away with a slew of accolades thanks to two ceremonies in one day. Business principal Peta Murphy said although they couldn’t be there they had a successful night in the Australian Bridal Industry Awards (ABIA). In the Queensland division of those awards they finished second in the Florist section, fourth in Wedding Consultant division and ninth in both styling and decorating and Photography.
They were able to watch the Brides Choice Awards (Southern Downs Regional) where they sat down after a busy day looking after a wedding - finishing first in Styling and Decorating for Weddings and Events Warwick while Blooms took third in the Florist category. Peta said it an exciting night for the hardworking team and it was gratifying to receive votes from local brides in what had been a challenging year early on and is now very busy couples start to hold their postponed. “Our team is just amazing - I could not do this without my team,” she said. “It is me and my husband Dan and then Cooper my 18-year-old son helps and we also have Judy is our star employee who helps us
to no end and is fully committed to everything we do. She’s got the passion too - it shows. I’m so thankful for them - it’s not just a me thing we’ve done it all together. “We had the Australian ABIA - they had the awards in Brisbane but I had a wedding that afternoon so we couldn’t’ make it,” she said. “But then the Brides Choice Awards for the Southern Downs region were done by Zoom so we were able to race home from the wedding and Zoom in. We had a huge week of weddings so we sat around and had a little pizza party and watched the awards and went into the night working.” The family runs the two businesses - Weddings and Events of Warwick and Blooms Of
Warwick - Weddings and events is styling, hire, florist and photography. “So we sort of do it all,” Peta explained. “Blooms is a florist which we do home deliveries - like a mobile florist and of course weddings. We service all over the Southern Downs but our main work is in Warwick and Stanthorpe and Toowoomba.” She has now been doing it eight years and says it has been very rewarding and a lot of fun. “It’s high pressure but we’ve been doing it that long now it’s a passion - we love it which makes it enjoyable.

IN BRIEF ‘Condition assessments’ The Southern Downs Regional Council says the region has “moved another step closer to water security after Council awarded a contract for the condition assessment of critical water and sewerage infrastructure at the Ordinary Meeting last Wednesday 11 November”. A spokeswoman said “council-owned reservoirs, tanks, and sewerage pump stations have been identified as the next priority due to the critical role they play in providing water and sewerage services to the community”. “The condition assessment will be performed by external contractor Hunter H2O with funding received from the Queensland Government Local Government Grants and Subsidies Program,” the spokeswoman said. Councillor Stephen Tancred said Council had a multi-pronged approach to securing the region’s future water supply. “As part of our Water Contingency Plan, we are exploring short, medium and long term strategies for our current and future water supply,” Cr Tancred said. “The condition assessment of these critical water assets will provide vital information for Council to better maintain infrastructure and replace or upgrade where necessary. “This will facilitate long term financial planning for water operations throughout the region and enable Council to make informed decisions with confidence. “Despite some recent rains, our region has not fully exited this current drought, and it’s important we prepare for the next drought. “Council continues to investigate all avenues to secure a sustainable water supply for the region. “The condition assessment will test 25 reservoirs and tanks and 34 sewerage pumps across the region. “The contractor will also make a number of recommendations and develop a ten-year capital works program and routine maintenance schedule. Council will prioritise replacements and upgrades as appropriate and according to budget constraints. “It’s important to keep our critical infrastructure running and in good shape.
“The assessment is expected to be completed by the end of April 2021. “A contract for the condition assessment of Council’s water and sewerage treatment plants was awarded in November 2019 under the same funding stream.”
Victoria Street roadworks The council says work is due to commence on the northern side of Victoria Street between Rosehill Road andEllis Street in Warwick “to improve the pavement and drainage, and will also include replacement of the water main after an assessment deemed the existing main required upgrading”. A spokeswoman said as sections of Victoria Street will be affected, Council will have traffic controllers onsite to assist road users and facilitate access for local residents to their properties.
“While every effort will be made to minimise and limit disruptions, traffic will operate under restricted arrangements and Council anticipates that there may be some minor delays during construction between the work hours of 6.30am and 5.00pm Monday to Friday,” the spokeswoman said. “Council apologises for any inconvenience and thanks the community for their cooperation while works are carried out for the safety of all road users. “The works are expected to be completed within seven weeks, however are weather dependent. “Contact Council on 1300 697 372 if you have any questions or concerns.”
‘Tiny homes’ Councillors at last week’s general council
meeting approved a minimum size for new residential dwellings in the region of 35 square metres. The change to the planning rules was prompted by a recent application the council received for approval to construct a dwelling with a floor size of 18 square metres. Councils across Australia have in recent times received an increasing number of applications for primary residential dwellings of a small size, often referred to as part of the “tiny home movement”. A report to councillors by planning officers stated that “an application to construct a dwelling with a floor area size of only 18 square meters has recently been received by Council”. “This application has caused staff within the Sustainable Development Directorate to debate whether the decision to approve or refuse an application of this nature should be made on a case by case basis by Council’s Built Environment Coordinator or if a minimum size should be set by Council to provide clear guidance on what is considered to be the absolute minimum acceptable size for dwellings being constructed for primary residential use,” the report stated. “Currently when assessing such applications the following criteria are considered: Compatibility with the scale, design and materials of other buildings in the locality; The road boundary setbacks of neighbouring buildings or structures; The outlook and views from neighbouring residents and public places; The amenity and privacy of residents and adjoining lots; and Overshadowing of adjoining houses “The Queensland Housing Strategy 20172027 outlines that more affordable and accessible housing needs to be developed, to contribute to the wellbeing of the state and to achieve other positive life outcomes. “It is acknowledged that ‘tiny homes’ are becoming a popular emerging trend. “The number of enquiries relating to ‘tiny homes’ has increased, and it is highly likely that more applications of a similar nature will be lodged with Council.”

Stanthorpe United had plenty to celebrate at the weekend despite not finishing with a fairytale ending to their unlikely Football Premier League season.
Action in the nailbiting Toowoomba Premier League men’s title at the weekend.
United’s Toowoomba win United director of coaching Steve McEvoy said despite the amazing performance by both Southern Downs/Granite Belt teams no decision had been made as to if they would play in the Toowoomba competition next year. He said even before the grand final it had been a topic for discussion in football ranks. “At the end of the day the day that decision will be Football Stanthorpes, Football Toowoomba and Football Queensland’s - not Steve McEvoy’s and not Stanthorpe United’s,” he said he told a pre-grandfinal forum last week. “There are so many things that have to hap12468889-CG45-20
Stanthorpe United will now take a few weeks break to consider their future after coming heartbreakingly close to taking the Toowoomba Football Premier League men’s grand final title at Toowoomba on Sunday. Locked at Nil-all at half-time, one-all at fulltime and two-all after 30 minutes of extra-time it took a penalty-shoot-out to finally give defending premiers Willowburn the title against the never say- die newcomers. The team that was never originally in the competition and were only added after the
Stanthorpe competition didn’t go ahead because of Covid travelling thousands of kilometres throughout the regular season, were in the match the whole way and with five-minutes of extra-time left were up 2-1 and looking destined to win. However Willowburn equalized with 30 seconds on the clock to stay in the game before dominating the penalty shoot-out. It wasn’t all bad news for United with their Under 17’s - combining with Warwick Wolves players to take the title on the Sunday afternoon.

“Our first year saw local support at 60% and visitor support at 40%. This year, the scales have tipped, bringing the Granite Belt 60% of visitors from outside the region, and 40% of locals, who continue to get behind the event, which has the objectives of: inclusiveness, reduced isolation, identity as an arts and cultural destination and economic diversity”, says Ms Chapman. First-time visitor to the Granite Belt Freya James joined a group of eight for a four-night getaway, visiting numerous venues on the trail via self-drive and Filippos Wine Tours, describing her experience as “magical”. Her most-loved artisan was watercolourist Judi Pigeon, who demonstrated her art at Ballandean Estate. “Judi’s watercolours spoke to my heart.

Come enjoy the street By Tania Phillips Palmerin Street will come to life on the evening of 27 November when the second annual Jingle & Mingle brings Christmas spirit to the street. The event is a chance to enjoy cooler late night shopping, meet up with friends and be reminded of just what the street has to offer according to one of the organisers Debra Rhodes. “Jingle & Mingle was first dreamt up in 2019 when Emporium Lane and Brow and Beaute Co decided to band together and create an event to bring some Christmas cheer to our little neighbourhood of businesses in Palmerin Street,” she explained. “Communtiy spirit needed a lift last year with the drought affecting our community, and we wanted to thank our customers for their support, so the first ever Jingle & Mingle was a way of throwing a little Christmas party to say thank you and come together! “It was a huge success in 2019, with so many smiling happy faces, and customers enjoying an evening of shopping and festivities, so this year we decided that we should raise the bar and ask all retailers in the CBD to stay open for some late night shopping, and use the evening as a way to thank their custimers for supporting them through 2020! “We are very pleased that so many retailers are keeping their doors open for the evening

Late night shopping on By Tania Phillips The shopkeepers of Palmerin Street are looking forward to this year’s Jingle and Mingle - a late night shopping experience in Warwick on November 27. One of the original instigators of the event - which began last year - Andrew Cooper, also helping to organise the event, was keen to be back onboard to help bring a little Christmas magic to the town after what has been another tough year. “The main Street is opening, after hours, from 5pm onwards,” he said. “All the retailers are opening and there is a give-away so everytime you spend money at a shop that’s open you get a ticket and the retailers have donated a gift voucher. It’s all about getting the festive spirit happening after hours, its more special. There will be festive music playing on the speakers, businesses will have a
few incentives, there might be a few sales. Everyone is different - it’s just a festive late night experience until late. “This year we were unsure how it would go it’s always a bit tricky. I think it’s going to be pretty good - we had a good response last year, actually better than we thought.” He said next year it was planned to be bigger and better - trying different things but with this year’s Covid restrictions they were being a bit careful while still going ahead with the event. “I think it will be good- it’s just nice to do something different,” he said. “It’s a different atmosphere and people catch up on the street. “We don’t do late night trade out here on the street - we always close at 5pm or 5.30pm.”

Coopers Menswear store - like many of the independent retailers on Palmerin Street is something just a little out of the ordinary. Owned and operated by Andrew Cooper, the store has been in its current location for just over a year and aims to offer things you expect and things you might not. “I have men’s clothing, accessories, suiting, lots of Christmas gifts because it’s a bit hard in Warwick to find something a little bit different for a man,” he explained. “I have a lot of leather goods, toiletries and things like light that and we stock some pretty good brands - RM Williams, Thomas Cook, Tommy Hilfiger, Gazman. I like to offer something a little bit different to the run of the mill kind of thing for a man. We service everyone from teen-aged boys to seniors. “I like to have a nice welcoming environment for my customers.” Andrew worked in retail for eight years after school and while he was still in his midtwenties the opportunity came about to open up his own business. “I think Warwick needed it, there was a previous menswear store here and they were closing so I kind of took over and changed it up and freshened it up a bit,” he said. He is still only thirty - and it admits it is a big step at that age and it was hard but Warwick had been very supportive. “People still like to support local which is what it’s all about,” Andrew said. “We have a lot here in the main street - everything is covered. I think it’s our location -

Make this year a truly ‘Western’ Christmas By Tania Phillips Crossdraw Country Co. is the perfect place for Christmas shopping this year. For a little over two years since they opened they have been known as Crossdraw Western Emporium, but have recently undergone a name change to Crossdraw Country Co.

It has just been launched back onto the market just in time for Christmas. Other great brands available include the ever popular Ariat & Cinch western wear brands for men, women and children, Thomas Cook kid’s range, Sunbody Hats, Montana Silversmith, Big Country Toys and a great selection of Cowhide bags, clutches and wallets. Crossdraw has the biggest selection of the hugely popular Ariat Cruisers in Warwick. They have proven to be a great choice for Christmas in the past and they anticipate they will be again this year. Don’t leave it to the last minute as they sell out quite fast. Sunbody Hats are another very popular item on peoples Christmas wish list.
The latest range at Crossdraw. Made from genuine palm leaf or oak leaf, they are light weight yet sturdy and very comfortable to wear. They can also be reshaped if the customer wishes.

Mind you the recently married Allison, who has been working in the work wear sector for three decades, is a fountain of knowledge if it is workwear that you are after. “I started the business on the smell of an oily rag back in August 2008,” Alison joked. “So I have been here a little while now. But I started sell workboots and stuff more than 30 years ago so I’ve been in the retail game my entire life - I grew up in retail. “Retail is all I’ve ever known but I love it. “My business is all about - well it’s much much more than just work stuff - people tend to look at it and think it’s just work gear but it’s more. “Yes, I’ve got the work and safety supplies but I’ve got a lot of other gear as well - a lot of people don’t know that I’ve got Double Plugger Thongs and I have had them for a long time. “A couple times I’ve been asked what are Double Pluggers and I’ve thought “and you’re Australian? Hang your head in shame,” she laughed. But it’s not just Workgear and it’s not just a male dominated store either. “There is a mix - I’ve got some lady’s gear here - polos and shirts for ladies as well as for men,” she said. “So there is some casual stuff. There’s a big mix of things I carry - I think a lot of people

“I have even had gumboots in size -15 and 16 - mind you I’ve never actually come across a foot to put in it but I’ve been able, in the past I’ve been able to get the massive gumboot. “A lot of people don’t realise when it comes to workboots and casual shoes there are two sizes difference. It’s something a lot of guys forget so when I get customers com-
ing in to my shop I like to fit them out properly. Because I’ve been selling workboots for so long I can generally pick a man’s boot size by looking at his feet.

Do you have an idea for an innovative and sustainable local event? Event organisers from across the region now have the chance to share in almost $400,000 through the Local Events Funding Program (LEFP) facilitated by Council.
and support event organisers to help develop and deliver successful and sustainable events that make a positive contribution to the Southern Downs regional economic outcomes.
Jointly funded by the Australian and Queensland Governments as part of the 2019 Queensland Bushfires Community Recovery Package, the LEFP will assist
The Industry Framework for COVID-19 safe events is applicable for all events and provides strategies and guidance to event organisers to limit the transmission of COVID-19. Councillor Marco Gliori said it had been a tough few years for the community who had been hit hard by the combined impacts of drought, bushfires and the COVID-19 pandemic. “Creating a strong events calendar will assist greatly with the economic recovery of the region and the funding is a positive boost,” Cr Gliori said.
Councillor Andrew Gale Despite the fact I live almost under the shadow of Warwick Town Hall Clocktower, I am a very regionally focussed person. My family and I chose to live here after living and working in every corner of this great state. My wife Melinda and I have been married for 28 years and we have seven children and a growing brood of grandchildren. With an overwhelming majority of boys (6-1), I predict that the Gale name will be much more widespread in this community as we move together into the future.
What is your career background and how does that influence your role as a Councillor? I was a Queensland police officer from 1988 to 2006 and have been the owner of a local training business ever since. Policing definitely taught me how to communicate effectively in even the most adverse of circumstances and to treat each and every new interaction with people as a “new page.”It also taught me how to operate within a stringently controlled bureaucratic system and how to use the processes of bureaucracy to best advantage.
The funding is open to any cultural, creative and sporting organisations, for profit organisations and businesses as well as not-for-profit organisations that can deliver events or projects in the Southern Downs and Granite Belt region between 1 March 2021 and 28 February 2022.

Let’s talk about the future of the Warwick Saleyards together!
What do you love most about living in the region? I love the people. Most of them I run into call a spade a spade, are hardworking, passionate and honest. And they’re certainly not afraid to give me their opinions on issues affecting our region. How will this region thrive? This region will thrive if we all commit to being prepared and doing our groundwork. That will put us in the best position to capitalise on opportunities as they arise. What is the biggest challenge facing this region and how will we overcome it? It’s got to be securing water for our future and our descendant’s future, with diverse solutions as we do in other fields like agriculture and business. By not having all of our eggs in one basket, we spread the risk if one option fails. What is your vision for the Southern Downs over the next four years? I would like to see Council continue to satisfy its obligations to the community in the most open, transparent and cost effective way we can. We have amazing people and opportunity in this region and I would like to hope that we can break free together from the recent setbacks we have faced to grow a better future.

While there are some of the usual tropes (dumb blonde, angry curmudgeons, hapless son), Mum offers a beautiful mix of heart and humour as it follows the middle-aged and recently widowed Cathy (Lesley Manville) as she makes the tentative steps towards a deep connection with Michael (Peter Mullan), who has remained long-silent of his love for her for the best part of 40 years.

THE GREAT HOUSE REVIVAL SBS, 7.30pm
The beautiful gift of renovation shows is in their ability to sweep up us in the drama of pondering which bathroom tiles speak most to us, which shade of eggshell white is more welcoming and, the eternal question: to water feature, or not to water feature? The seemingly trivial becomes essential and in so doing, pulls us away from the constant drama of the world at present. In tonight’s finale, host Hugh Wallace follows a restoration of epic proportions as couple Carolyn and Michael and brother Henry attempt to bring life back into an 1850s Regency-style mansion in Ireland. The property, last used as a hotel, has deteriorated with disuse, but the trio are determined to make it a home. be topped.
SATURDAY
THE LORD OF THE RINGS: THE RETURN OF THE KING SEVEN, 7.30pm
!Peter Jackson’s epic trilogy gave movie fans one of the most thoroughly engrossing spectacles ever to have graced a cinema. Picking up from The Two Towers, The Return of the King sees the original Fellowship still fractured, with Frodo (Elijah Wood), Sam (Sean Astin) and duplicitous Gollum (Andy Serkis) making their way to Mount Doom. Meanwhile, Gandalf (Ian McKellen) tries to thwart Gondor’s senile wannabe king (John Noble), while king-proper Aragorn (Viggo Mortensen, pictured with McKellen) tries to raise an evil-smiting army. A magnificent conclusion to a cinematic saga that will probably never be topped.
We’ve sat by and watched – and judged – these hardworking pairs for months as they smashed, sanded and decorated their way through their renovation dreams. It all comes to a crunch tonight as the completed homes in Melbourne’s bayside suburb of Brighton go under the hammer. While we are taken on a trip back through the contestants’ journeys this season, nerves are high as the winner is revealed by hosts Scott Cam (avoand Shelley Craft. Can fan favourites Jimmy and Tam take the prize? Their 1950s renovation has won most of the competition, but will its boldness be too much for the bayside buyers? Don’t miss it.

Livestock agent ROSS ELLIS of McDougall & Sons brings his fortnightly update on local markets ...
Livestock summary... Cattle numbers were firm for the last fortnight and prices were very good across the categories. Full buying panels as well as re-stocker interest kept the values up. Cows made from $780-$2800 depending on weight and finish. Feeder steers making between $1000-$1700, feeder heifers making between $1000-$1600 per head. Steers and bullocks sold to a top of 390c/kg to average 374c/kg. Re-stockers kept the rate going for cattle back to the paddock with heifers ranging between 410c/kg and 442c/kg and steers between 304c/kg and 467c/kg. Cow and calf units sold to a top of $2500 with the few available lots selling between $1700-$2500. Sheep and lamb numbers were stable across the fortnight but the yarding changes with one week dominated by merino lambs and one dominated with butcher types. The heavy lambs whilst bringing the sale toppers of $222, probably turned out to be better buying for the butchers. Light lambs back to the paddock, made $120-$160 for lambs weighing 35kg-40kg. Calf prices are still strong but only light
numbers yarded. Small brahman calf made a sale record of $405. Goats are still strong making $160/hd. Poultry saw the rates fall and numbers as well. Pork as we move into the festive season is still bringing good returns store pigs between $121-$170/hd. Pork between $168-$178/hd. - Ross Ellis, McDougall & Sons, Warwick, 0419 744 151
High value of biosecurity The findings of a multi-year project show that, when modelled over 50 years, the value of Australia’s biosecurity system is $314 billion. This represents an average return of $30 for every dollar invested by the Australian Government. Minister for Agriculture, Drought and Emergency Management, David Littleproud said the project reaffirms why the Australian Government is investing record amounts into our biosecurity system and what is at stake if we reduced or stopped our investment in biosecurity. “This groundbreaking project puts a dollar figure on how much value the national biosecurity system provides by protecting our assets. This value will be much higher when state and territory and industry investments are modelled. “Biosecurity isn’t just about food and fibre, it also protects our environment, infrastructure and other critical assets, which the report values at $251.5 billion a year, and $5.7 trillion over 50 years. “The value of the system is based on what would happen if we did nothing — that is, what would Australia look like if the system was turned ‘off’. “It is clear that Australia’s biosecurity system yields large positive benefits for all Australians, our agricultural industries, and the environment that we live in. “These are initial results of a model that will continue to be developed and refined. We will combine the model with existing approaches used by the Australian Government to fine tune our biosecurity controls to ensure we get the biggest return on managing biosecurity risks from our investment.
David Littleproud. “The Australian Government has a strong and proud record of investment, innovation and reform to ensure our biosecurity system remains world-class, and we will continue to build on this work to maintain our enviable pest and disease status,” Minister Littleproud said today. Fast Facts: Biosecurity is fundamental to agricultural sector’s ambition to reach a $100 billion industry by 2030: https://www.agriculture.gov. au/ag-farm-food/ag2030 The project contributes to implementation of the 2016 independent review of Australia’s biosecurity system. The project was delivered in a collaboration between the Department of Agriculture, Water and the Environment and the Centre of Excellence for Biosecurity Risk Analysis (CEBRA), at the University of Melbourne. By 30 June 2021, the Australia Government will have allocated $14.36 million over CEBRA’s eight years of operation. The Valuing Australia’s biosecurity system report is available here.

USQ’s growing agtech role Opening more than 50 years ago, the University of Southern Queensland’s Centre for Agricultural Engineering (CAE) remains the only university program in Australia to offer agricultural engineering, securing a firm foothold in the growing AgTech industry. Centre Director Professor Craig Baillie said in recent decades the access to technology for the farming sector had changed dramatically and encouraged a new wave of interest from students and researchers alike. “I’m an agricultural engineer and it’s the access to technology and farm equipment and design that excited me about a career in this space,” Professor Baillie said. “What these new technologies allow is also to excite others that might come into the industry that might not have an agricultural background,” he said. “We have folk within our research centre who have a background in mechatronics engineering so traditionally they wouldn’t have been in agriculture so all of a sudden agriculture is a lot more interesting to a lot more people which opens up more opportunities.” One such opportunity at the Toowoomba-based CAE is the one-hectare field en-
closure that allows students and academics to conduct research at a commercial scale to test new technologies before deploying them in the field. “Normally we have to travel a distance to do work in the field but now we can do some of that work here on campus and get students involved as well,” Professor Baillie said. The site is currently being utilised heavily to assist in the development of technologies informing precision agriculture with the help of one of the largest self-propelled sprayers available in Australia thanks to a research agreement with tractor manufacturer, John Deere. “The R4045 is fitted out with the latest technology which makes it a great opportunity to work with John Deere on new developments that also underpin some of the research activities at the University of Southern Queensland,” Professor Baillie said. “Further to that, our students are getting access to that technology before farmers. That’s the experience we want for our students, that by getting involved with the sorts of things we do they get exposed to that technology and those partnerships within industry too.”
Mechatronics engineering undergraduate and CAE research assistant Logan Torrance said industry connections were helping him build his resume before he even hit the job market. “The skills that I’m learning can be applied in a multitude of situations whether it’s the mining industry or here in Toowoomba or anywhere,” Mr Torrance said. “The thing about working with John Deere especially, is the fact they’re able to use the knowledge we’ve got and use that elsewhere, so a lot of researchers at the Centre actually get to go and implement the research around the globe.” Professor Craig Baillie said the value of the University’s AgTech research was made abundantly clear during his four-month research stay in Texas as part of his 2019 Fulbright Scholarship. “I was quite heartened to learn that the work we do here at the Centre for Agricultural Engineering is very well aligned with the tech that’s emerging and being developed,” he said.

Priority species list The National Priority List of Exotic Environmental Pests, Weeds and Diseases was released last week which delivers on a recommendation of the 2017 review of Australia’s biosecurity system. Minister for Agriculture, Drought and Emergency Management David Littleproud, and Minister for the Environment, Sussan Ley said the list will be used to prioritise national actions to help prevent the entry, establishment and spread of exotic pests, weeds, and diseases. “They pose a high risk to our environment and public spaces. Australia’s biosecurity system is there to protect the great outdoors and we are doing so to protect our way of life,” Mr Littleproud said. “The Australian Government is always looking at ways to build a stronger environmental biosecurity system to protect our assets and support our nation’s economic prosperity and our national image. “Species on the Priority List pose a serious
risk to Australia’s environment, our Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander heritage, the Australian tourism sector and many also impact on agricultural production. “The Priority List was developed by experts from across the nation and agreed by state and territory governments. It provides a national level focus to raise awareness, guide surveillance activities, strengthen preparedness and response capabilities and inform research. “ Minister for the Environment Sussan Ley said the Priority List plays a key role in focusing prevention efforts to keep exotic pests out of the country. “Prevention delivers the best outcomes, far more so than eradication, containment or asset protection,” Minister Ley said. “We’ve seen the destruction caused by so many invasive pests over the years to our native species and farms, and, sadly, there are many other exotic threats that can cause even further damage.
“It is important to help people recognise the dangers and prevent new pests from entering or establishing in Australia. “We can all play a role in reducing biosecurity risks and it can be as simple as reporting unusual plants or pests in our gardens, parklands and conservation areas.” More information about the National Priority List of Exotic Environmental Pests, Weeds and Diseases can be found here: https://www. agriculture.gov.au/biosecurity/environmental/priority-list FAST FACTS... A range of activities are already underway to reduce the risk of exotic environment pest species entering Australia and causing harm to our natural environment and native species. Some of these activities include: Diagnostics capabilities being developed for hard to detect species such as new strains of myrtle rust, a disease that can kills

oped has been updated as a critical resource if this disease is detected in Australia. The Department of Agriculture, Water and the Environment has partnered with CSIRO to develop an automated alert system that notifies a sighting of a Priority List species in Australia - so we can respond to it quickly and control it. Examination of incoming cargo and mail using sophisticated x-ray systems is being engineered to detect and stop smuggled pest animals and plants at the border. Work is underway to eradicate red imported fire ant outbreaks that badly affect agriculture and the environment. Species on the Priority List are targeted through the National Border Surveillance program.
Approval ‘quietly’ given
USQ tackles food waste A University of Southern Queensland led project is looking at ways to take the nearly 19,000 tonnes of organic waste that ends up in Toowoomba landfill every year out of the trash pile and turn it into treasured new revenue streams for the region. Funded by the Fight Food Waste CRC, the Toowoomba and Surat Basin Enterprise (TSBE) and Toowoomba Regional Council (TRC), USQ’s Professor Bernadette McCabe is leading the project that aims to map out the quantity and quality of waste products that end up in local landfill and explore the technologies available for processing and converting it in to high-value products such as energy and solid or liquid biofertiliser. “Ultimately the project is about putting a value on something that is otherwise a liability and what opportunities and technology exist to convert it into something that can produce an income stream,” Professor McCabe said. “Toowoomba is home to significant agricultural and food processing sectors so with our project partners we want to get as clear a picture as possible around the overall organic waste stream situation in the Toowoomba region, and then work together to identify potential beneficial uses of waste that could inform investment attraction activities, and promote the opportunity to potential investors.” Bruce McConnel, the General Manager of TSBE’s Food Leaders Australia, said the project offers a unique opportunity to Toowoomba and the Darling Downs.
“There’s a growing need for regional economies to create a circular economy out of traditional waste streams, and we’re well placed to capitalise on that need with the support of our local university working to a national agenda,” Mr McConnell said. “This process of investigation will make sure we have the knowledge of quantity, and quality of our organic waste streams, allowing us to attract world leading technology and businesses to the region to grow our ‘clean, green’ image” Toowoomba Region Mayor Paul Antonio said exploring the viability of various collection and processing options for organic waste material was an important exercise for a growing local government area. “This partnership with USQ and other local stakeholders ensures that the type and quantity of organic waste in our region is properly understood so we can move forward with attracting organic processors to the region,” Mayor Antonio said. One of the outcomes of the project is to undertake a feasibility study of business opportunities to inform future detailed investigations and investment under the Fight Food Waste CRC over the next 8 years. The project partners will this week hold a workshop hosted at USQ to identify key stakeholders and value chain participants that could supply feedstock and identify markets for high value waste products. November is Qld AgTech Month.
was disgraceful at a time when she and others were challenging the project in the High Court of Australia. “The soils New Acland now has approval to rip up and destroy are among the top 1.5 percent in the state,” she said. “The legislation that is meant to protect this top-quality country has clearly failed, and must be urgently reformed by the reinstated Palaszczuk Government. “Land like this cannot be rehabilitated to its original quality once mined. “The rehabilitation attempts by New Hope so far have proven this. “The company has turned gold star cropping country into scrub that can barely feed cattle. “Once prime agricultural land is lost, it is lost forever. “It should not be sacrificed for the sake of a temporary coal mine that will have a net negative impact on jobs in the region if it goes ahead. “While the approval of the RIDA is a blow to farmers, New Acland can only start mining its stage 3 expansion if it is granted a mining license and a water license. “The High Court is also yet to make its decision on the matter.”

The ‘Lock The Gate Alliance’ says the Queensland Government has quietly handed out one of the final approvals for the New Acland coal mine stage three expansion that would “nullify meagre protections originally intended to protect the state’s very best farming country”. A spokesman this week said the New Acland coal mine “has already dug up and destroyed land classed as ‘priority agricultural area’ and ‘strategic cropping land’ under the Regional Planning Interests Act (RPIA) - legislation introduced in 2014 that was intended to protect the state’s best farmland from coal and gas extraction”. “The stage 3 expansion, if approved, would destroy even more of this prime agricultural land,” the spokesman said. “Despite this, three months ago the Queensland Treasury Department (encompassing the Planning Department) quietly waved through a Regional Interest Development Approval which gave New Acland the right to mine the land that is mapped as a Priority Agricultural Area under the Darling Downs Regional Plan - areas where farming was meant to be priority land use. “The decision was quietly posted on a government website with no notification to the many landholders and other groups that had made submissions on the original application in January 2020. “Lock the Gate Alliance has previously revealed that while only 11 percent of Queensland is mapped as priority areas under the RPIA, 37% of that area is under threat from or has already been destroyed by existing coal and unconventional gas projects.” Oakey Coal Action Alliance president and alpaca farmer Aileen Harrison said the decision to approve the RIDA over the area

On behalf of myself, my family, and Syd’s family, I (and Syd) would like to thank everyone that have extended their love and support to us prior to and after Syd’s passing. We were overwhelmed by the generosity and kindness, words of comfort, phone calls, emails, texts, cards, beautiful flowers, plants, lovely meals, baking and physical presence that have helped to fill the large void since Syd’s passing. Syd was a well-liked, loved and respected family man and Stanthorpe community member, and he is missed terribly every day. My heart was broken when my soul mate grew his angel wings.

Beatrice Hawkins
A showy specimen... For many years I have admired a shrub around town in various gardens.. never knew what it was or bothered to find out! However, someone asked me the name recently and I had to go track it down. As I’ve often said I am no great gardener or horticulturist but I do love it all and know how to ask “Mr. Google” or other people things. This time it was my friendly nursery person who came up with a name and Mr. Google with further information. The botanical name is Caesalpinia gilliesii and it is commonly known as the “Bird of Paradise” bush. This made me think I was on the wrong track as it bore no resemblance to what I had always known as “bird of paradise” with its broad green leaves and birdlike flowers. It is a very hardy South African native that has been hybridised to flower in a variety of colours including a spectacular variety called “Mandela’s Gold” after the late prime minister of that country. The one word I had missed in the common name was “desert” and therein lies the difference although I do wonder about that as it then goes on to tell me that it is a native of tropical areas of South America namely Argentina and Uruguay! It has, though, adapted to dry climates and has become naturalised in Texas apparently and southern parts of America. The shrub grows in ideal conditions up to 4 metres high but most specimens I’ve seen have been not much more than half that. It
Not to be confused with the “other’’ Bird of Paradise... has fern like leaves and 5 petalled yellow flowers with 10 long red, very conspicuous, stamens. These flowers are born on long ra-
cemes up to 20cms long. They are very showy flowers and look delicate but are really quite drought and heat tolerant and like a position in full sun. In fact I read that they are perfect for challenging, hot positions near driveways or between building foundations. The flowers give way to flat green pea like seed pods that turn brown when ripe and apparently explode.. sometimes quite violently.. and scatter the seeds. It is an hermaphrodite so has both male and female characteristics and is pollinated by insects. It is a legume so useful in fixing nitrogen in soils, can grow in virtually any soil from acid to alkaline, sandy to heavy clay. It was used by the natives of the Amazon to cure all sorts of ailments from fevers to sores and even for abortions in the first trimester. The green seed pods though, are toxic and should not be eaten. It is listed as not being noxious or on the invasive plants list for Queensland but after reading all that I would think it certainly has the potential to become problem. It appears to have no problems or natural predators and is said to be even resistant to deer! Not an issue here yet but who knows??.. Santa might swing by and need a feed for Rudolph.. he’d be out of luck with this shrub!! I a have really been enjoying all the grevilleas out in gardens and on nature strips around town. These hardy natives have enjoyed the rain we had and have put on a lovely show. The

variety of colours available means you can have one to suit any colour scheme or just have a mix from cream through to deep red and purple. You could almost plant a rainbow! I have decided that the corner where I intend to plant my native garden will, until I can have a regular water supply, become a sunflower patch. To this end I have bought seeds for many varieties from giants to tiny dwarf ones that will only grow to 30 cms and are ideal for pots. I have bought as many different colours that I could find and have red, brown, bi colours, an icy white and even a mauve one with cream ends to the petals. These will all be planted by the time you read this with any luck and will take minimal amount of rain to get them up and keep them going. There is also not a huge financial outlay so if we don’t get rain I will not be too heart broken or out of pocket as I would be if planted to more expensive natives. It will be in a corner of my yard and will be the first thing I’ll see on waking so will be a great way to start the day. They will all be facing east awaiting the sun.. couldn’t help but make a person smile! I hope by the time you read this, more prayers will have been answered and we will have had another fall of rain after the hot weather of this week. I guess I don’t want to see a flood and definitely not damaging wild weather, but some good useful falls to put water in dams and provide subsoil moisture would be most welcome.

The Free Times is featuring contributions from the Rose City Writers Group this week SUE MCMANUS shares her latest work ... ‘MISADVERTURE’ It was the trip of a life time. Kevin and Libby Turner and their son Harley had won a holiday to visit the Grand Canyon. A stay in a cabin for a week and a guide to lead them. Harley couldn’t contain his excitement. “Dad, when are we going out on a trail, I want to see some mountain goats?” “We don’t go anywhere without our guide. Got that Harley. Don’t think about venturing out by yourself.” Libby said, “We’ll have some breakfast and wait for the guide.” Hank the guide had a mule loaded with provisions. “Won’t it be exciting to camp out under the stars?” Harley sulked a bit but he was ten. He wasn’t dumb and he wanted adventures to brag about. After a long hike the guide set up camp. Mum set out the food. Trail Mix was good, Beef Jerky and chocolate bars. The meal over they set up the tents and sleeping bags. Harley wanted to sleep in his bag outside but Mum objected. Hank spoke up. “He’ll be fine Mrs Turner. We have a fire and I’m a light sleeper.” Kevin and Libby crawled into their tent and slept soundly. It had been a long day. Early dawn Harley crept out of his sleeping bag, got his camera and trail mix and headed off. He had his torch but he heard unusual echoes. “Nothing to worry about, just keep walking?” Harley thought. He’d been walking about an hour when he heard something racing behind him. He panicked. It was only the mule, he must have gotten loose. Back at camp pandemonium had broken out. Parents and guide got organized to find him. Hank noticed the mule missing. Hank was the first to see blood and noticed Harley sitting on the ground beside the mule. A puma lay dead. “What the hell happened?” “You should have seen it Mum. The cat came out of nowhere and attacked us, but the mule defended me. Mules would kill mountain lions. Hank wasn’t surprised.
Harley knew he was grounded forever but he had some great photos of the motionless body of the puma and shots of him posing with the mule who was the hero of the day. What an episode to tell his school mates. ‘Reluctant Hero’ This is the story about my best friend Rocky. Other kids thought he was tough because he had rescued an old man from a burning building. I’m his best mate Jackson, since kindergarten. Walking down by the creek we spotted a worn-out push bike in the water. “Finders’ keepers. “ Rocky jumped in to retrieve it. “It’s all rusty and broken, what are you going to do with that piece of junk?” I thought it was beyond servicing but Rocky had other ideas. We lugged the mangled heap out of the water. Mud and grass clogging the wheels and we dragged it home. I had to go away for the weekend with my parents so I wouldn’t see Rocky until Monday. “See you when I get back.” I yelled as we drove away. Rocky locked himself in his garage that weekend and worked on that sorry bike. Arriving home Monday I got that phone call. “Meet me at Suicide Gap in 15 minutes.” He sounded excited, that wasn’t like him he was always so cool calm and collected. I peddled my bike over in record time to meet him. Rocky waited at the top of the road that ran down at a sheer angle to where it met at the creek. “You aren’t going to ride that bike down, and jump that creek at the bottom?” I myself thought he was crazy. “Why not? It’s perfectly safe.” Rocky scoffed to think I didn’t believe he’d fixed the broken bike. Some of the local kids gathered and waited, maybe to see him fail or beat this and jump the creek at the bottom. I thought I saw a slight doubt in his eyes but then he said in true hero style. “Let’s get this over with.” Rocky adjusted his helmet and threw his legs over the bike, did a wheel stand and raced down the hill at breakneck speed.
The boys cheered and some girls screamed as Rocky hurdled down the hill. “Why did I think I could do this crazy stunt?” “Because you’re a hero, think positive. All the kids are waiting for you to prove you are not just a onetime hero. Don’t let them down.” Concentrate and don’t get yourself killed. A voice in his head told him. The creek was looming ahead, he could see the water approaching. With his heart in his mouth, Rocky gathered his strength and went for it. The bike soared in the air. Time stopped. His breath caught in his throat and he landed with a thud on the other side. His legs felt like jelly when he got off the bike. The kids were cheering and came clambering down the hill to meet him. I was the first to reach him, after all I’m his best buddy. He had that cocky grin on his face and said calmly. “No prob’ piece of cake!” he said, and turned to greet his cheering fans. ‘The Scotsman and the Bunyip’ The old men laughed when they saw his skirt Not very clean all covered in dirt Not a skirt said he but a kilt he quipped His raised his class of Ginners as he sipped. Been down the billabong hunting the bunyip Had a wee look before he had a dip Then over on the bank he saw a sign Of a hairy beasts footprints a magnificent find The old men said beware of the curse It’s killed before you won’t be the first People disappear lost forever and never found His cry echoes in the mist a terrible sound. Yet some say he protects his own private patch And keeps the land free of white man’s trash Two different stories have been voiced It’s up to the people to believe their choice McDougal said what a lot of rubbish and drivel Got up off his camp chair and with a swivel Picked up his bagpipes tramped into the scrub Someone said he didn’t take any water or grub No one saw McDougal for over a year Search party’s looked but he’s gone we fear But sometimes in the very still of the night Mournful sounds of bagpipes resonate when the wind is right

Club active By Amy Buckingham The Warwick Lapidary Club is encouraging more people to fossick, facet and polish stones after it has received a boom in memberships in the past two months. Killarney man Mark Turner said he has just joined the Club but aspires to create a stone chess set in the future. “When I’m faceting gems I have to be absolutely precise - I’m yet to find out if I’m doing it right,” Mark said. “First I facet quartz, then I work on topaz and sapphire.” Longest Warwick Lapidary Club member Syd Woodrow said he has been part of the Club for 50 years. “The Club formed in 1966 and members travelled all over Australia to find stones,” Syd said. “Now the Club is involved in faceting, silver smithing and the general working of stones.” Member since 1984 Ms Rhonda Kajewski said creating a flat and polished stone first requires flat lapping. “You do continual movements to wear down grit, and as you wear down grit silver lines disappear which means the stone is flat,” Rhonda said. “You then go through different grits as each one is finer and then polish the stone.” Vice president Ms Leisa Gillham said the Club would love for more people to join. “Seeing people and their enthusiasm and being able to pass on our skills is great,” Leisa said. The Club joins on Wednesdays and Saturdays from 12-4pm at their workshop off Horsman Road, Warwick. The joining fee is $5 and the annual fee is $20 with children aged 10 - 16 benefiting from a reduced annual fee of $1. Enquires can be made to Warwick Lapidary Club President Mr David Young on 4661 7865.

CASEY O’CONNOR is on holidays this week at a sandy spot on the coast enjoying a well-earned break. In Spin this week we feature a report by Liam St Pierre on the sport of Rogaining, from Giraween...plus some of the action from last weekend’s Football finals in Toowoomba...
Rogaining a sport for all It’s not often that I get down to writing a race report for a foot rogaine, the last ones being the Diaper Creek Rogaine and 24 Hour Rogaine champs way back in 2014. A big part of the reason for this is that’s been almost 2.5 years since I’ve done a pure bush foot rogaine! Between Covid, organising races and competing in the Adventure 1 national series and other AR events over the last few years, it’s been a while between outings. But the recent 6 hour foot rogaine hosted out of Girraween National Park was particularly noteworthy and I thought it worth capturing a few thoughts about the event. Firstly, for context, the race attracted almost 290 competitors across the 3 hour and 6 hour events. This makes it the one of the largest participated rogaines in south east Queensland that I’m aware of - certainly the largest I’ve raced in. If you had told me that a 6 hour rogaine that was more than 3 hours drive from Brisbane could attract those sort of numbers, I wouldn’t have believed you. But the general feedback was two-fold. Firstly, I think people were itching to get racing after a long hiatus between events due to Covid-19 restrictions. But by far and away a larger factor was the draw card of the location. Girraween National Park is an amazing piece of geography - the crown of the granite belt with some amazing rock features scattered throughout. It was actually the start location of the Raid 100 course back in 2019. Given that I had a working relationship with the rangers at the time and familiar with the permit process required for an event out there, and given that the area had been largely burnt out by bushfires at the end of 2018 and would in theory offer much more open undercarriage for cross country travel, I suggested it as a location for 30 SOUTHERN FREE TIMES Thursday, 19 November, 2020

a dedicated larger foot rogaine this year. Peter Blyton and his small team duly took on the challenge, and despite some butting of heads on HQ access and night travel, they delivered a fantastic event. Now, given that Girraween hosted the start location of the Raid 100, you would have
stepped onto the trails in over 30 years. Hence, I was keen to spend some time out there and hike through the area with my own family before the race. We had scored a nice cabin at the Environmental Lodge and was over the moon to later learn that this location would also double as race HQ.
thought I was pretty familiar with the area. However, in my organising efforts for that race, I never made it any further than the carpark outside the ranger’s office. All of the course setting and hanging for that first stage was done by Adam Power. I had fantastic memories of camping at Girraween as a kid, but hadn’t

then had less than 30 minutes to make it back from below Castle Rock all the way back to the environmental lodge. We managed to do so with just over 3 minutes to spare, but notably less than 30 seconds after another team on the same score. All told we only picked up 40 points in the last 50 minutes of the race: not a very efficient way to do it. Ultimately we managed to sneak in for fifth place, a result I was happy with given the route we had taken. There were plenty of tales of navigational woe and it seems that the winning team of Craig and co had the best of it with a winning strategy and good navigation (which, unsurprisingly, is what it takes to do well in these events). If I had to summarise our day out, I felt like that I had a ton of fun. We moved really well in the rough terrain and felt pretty solid physically - the much cooler temperatures on the day help with this. We were generally all over the navigation when we were focused, but too much chatting opened up lapses in concentration resulting in one big mistake and a couple of less optimal approaches. But the biggest killer was our strategy. Our original plan wasn’t great and every time we changed the plan it went from bad to worse. A good reminder that executing a poor plan is just as bad as poorly executing a good plan. All told, the race was fantastic. It was great to have the family out there and roasting marshmallows around the communal camp fire afterwards. It will be great to get back to the point where we can have catering and a more communal vibe at the hash house which can’t really happen in the current “Covid normal” times. I’d be a big advocate for another rogaine returning to Griraween sooner rather than later. Such spectacular terrain with so much offtrail travel and rock features. If there was another race there this weekend I’d be back in an instant. There’s certainly much more scope for a course to explore the area. And ultimately, how lucky are we to have the chance to race an event like this at the moment - a big thank you to all involved. From an organisers perspective, we were so pleased to see some of the elite teams at the top of the leaderboard challenged by the difficult terrain and navigation required, while also seeing many family groups get out and enjoy the event especially with young children. What is so great about rogaining is how flexible and suitable it is for ages and abilities. We were so fortunate to be given access to the national park for our event, as Girraween is truely an awesome location with stunning scenery and challenging terrain that lends itself well to our navigation sport. Our event was hosted by the Girraween Environmental Lodge, which gave us seamless access from our event start point into the fabulous national park. The Lodge owners provided us with a stunning location to start our event with views of Castle Rock and the Sphinx visible from our camping area.

Turning to the race, I was again partnering up Leo Theoharis. I was pretty keen to get some runs on the board this race after falling short at the recent 6 hour Wildfire Raid and 8 hour rogaine. Leo’s one of my favourite people to race with but it’s been a while since we’d done much racing together, so it felt like we were still finding our racing groove. Maps were handed out and the course setters had set a tough strategic challenge. The course was certainly not going to get swept! The big factor that weighed into our course planning process was the sole water point on the farthest point of the map. Both Leo and I are not fans of the heat and thought it critical we hit that water point. As such we planned a course that would see us reach that water stop at about the 3 hour mark. To be honest, I don’t think the route we selected would have been my first option if water wasn’t a consideration, but I thought it was still a sound plan that could land a competitive result if we executed it well. Setting off, I was glad to see the bulk of the field were headed for check points 66/36 first which was in keeping with what I thought would be the most efficient route. But in an attempt to make the water point as early as possible before working our way back, we headed straight to CP 27 which meant we were instantly out on our own as I prefer to be. Things were going well early - we were navigating fine and moving really well together through the rough, rocky terrain. The location was spectacular - every spur was littered with building sized boulders only to occasionally break out onto these massive granite slabs. Our approach to check point 67 was a little off, finding it easier to identify the gullies when approaching from below given the amount of rock up high obscuring the ridges and watercourse heads. The rock slabs around CP 91 were fantastic. Indeed, with the amount of rock, we found that travel was relatively consistent regardless if you were on the ridges, side hilling or tracking the watercourses. Things were going well through the first hour when the wheels of our plan completely fell off on route to CP 68 from CP 91. We were taking a straight line approach to minimize the amount of climbing and having a good chat about our plans to race XPD next year. At one point Leo said, “I think this is our creek”. I stopped on the spot, looked down at the map and had an “Oh Sh!t” moment. I’d been so caught up chatting that I’d completely forgot we were racing or even that we were meant to be navigating. I had literally paid no attention to the map, compass, our travel or what we were meant to be looking for - I had no idea of where we were on the map. In the end we made a parallel error on the wrong spur. With so much rock you really needed to check each knoll thoroughly as the control could literally be just around the corner and you wouldn’t spot it if you weren’t in the right location. After we finally relocated down to the watercourse and worked out where we were from the watercourse directions, we had lost almost 25 minutes by the time we picked up the control. With a promise to each other to pay a bit more attention going forward we knew our original plan was going to have to get thrown aside and come up with a new strategy. Reluctantly we decided to drop the water stop along with the big control points nearby and we grabbed a litre of water each from the creek between CP 45 and 84. From CP 84 we thought pushing on to CP 92 as originally planned might cost too much time and we would be better off collecting CP 74 with the option of grabbing more of the controls around the HQ all going well. With the new plan, I was really regretting that we hadn’t collected CPs 36 and 66 at the start of the race, as those controls were now dictating our route home. As it turned out, we were moving so quickly through the rest of the course that we found ourselves back past HQ and back out to CP 59 with 50 minutes to spare. While it was tempting to head back to HQ with our tail between the legs, with so much time up our sleeves wedecided to push on for CP 47 giving ourselves a hard cut off for when it would be worth turning back for the long run home. We rushed our approach to CP47, but managed to correct to the right water course and pick it up on the climb out. We
