Volunteer of the month

No stopping our tourism sector...

A well-known Warwick identity has been named the March 2021 Southern Downs Regional Council Volunteer of the Month for his years of selfless service within many local community organisations. Vince Hemmings has dedicated much of his retired life to helping others, volunteering with St Vincent de Paul, Rosies, St Mary’s Parish, and the Warwick Women’s Work Camp. Full story page 3

Visitors steamed into Warwick over the Easter weekend, including climbing aboard the Southern Downs Steam Railway’s trips out to Hendon, with nearly 400 train enthusiasts hitting the rails. The volunteer-run ‘SDSR’ has two to three similar trips planned every month for the rest of 2021 ... Photos, pages 10-11.

New home for station approved A development application for a new home for Warwick’s local community radio station Rose City FM was approved last week by council officers - the new building will be constructed in Victoria Park off Wallace Street. The impending move of the radio station from the former Rosenthal Shire depot will allow the Willi Street land to be sold off by the council. More on page 3

Yards cost ‘gap’ By Jeremy Sollars Around a month after a close-run vote of councillors on the planned upgrade of the Warwick Saleyards the Southern Downs Regional Council says a detailed design on the future upgrade could be up to six months’ away from completion.

Councillors voted five to four in early March to adopt a ‘middle of the road’ $7.5 million upgrade of the saleyards, putting paid to several years of community speculation and debate around the future of the vital facility. Other options - which in March were voted down - included a $15.6 million new ‘greenfield’ site, and a ‘gold-plated’ upgrade of the

existing saleyards estimated at $13.9 million. Southern Downs Mayor Vic Pennisi this week said the final cost of the upgrade could be “anywhere from $3.5 to $10 million”, but that he “personally” doubts the higher estimate, and anticipates the council will seek to “cap” the cost at $7.5 million. But details of the design components re-

main unclear at this stage, with an ‘internal working group’ of council officers now meeting on a regular basis to drive the project forward. The council is also preparing to apply for a significant funding share from state and federal government grants programs. Full story page 4

By Jess Baker Warwick’s annual Jumpers and Jazz festival is mere months away and organisers are calling on the region’s producers to participate. This year, on Saturday 24 July, the “Stroll and Swing” on Palmerin Street will again feature a Celebration of Local Flavours (COLF). Jumpers and Jazz in July organiser Bette Bonney said the COLF event is an excellent opportunity to showcase the brilliant diversity of local produce, in all its different forms. “It’s an exciting day with all the usual fanfare of dressed trees and jazz music. “There will be a wide diversity of local produce. The event also offers the opportunity for people to chat with the producers and organise online services.” Lyn Duncan of Sky View Pastoral said she had a stall at the 2019 Celebration of Local Flavours, where she sold herb salts and other “foodie delights”, and is still reaping the benefits of her participation today. “There are very big flow-on benefits to participating,” said Lyn. “I think everybody that had a stall at the 2019 event sold out. I met people there that are still ordering from me now.” Lyn said participating in the Celebration of Local flavours is a wonderful opportunity, particularly for smaller businesses, to advertise and sell their produce. “It’s just the bee’s knees. You’re able to expand your business quite a lot,” she said. “Even if you don’t have a lot of products to sell, even if you just have brochures to give out, it’s effective.” To any producer considering registering for a stall, Lyn’s advice is to “just jump in”.

Lyn Duncan of Sky View Pastoral said the 2021 Celebration of Local Flavours is an event not to miss. “You’ll have a bucketload of fun,” she said. Festival organisers are inviting all Southern Downs and neighbouring regions’ primary producers and boutique/cottage industry vendors to participate in the 2021 Celebration of Local Flavours and showcase their directmarket goods. With more than 10,000 expected at the event, Jumpers and Jazz organisers say the COLF event is the “perfect opportunity to meet potential customers and provide them with a taste of what you can offer today or in the future”. This year’s event will also feature new ‘Farmer Chats’, giving producers the opportunity for a one-on-one interview on stage during the day. Stall holder applications for the event must be submitted by Monday 19 April 2021. Forms are available online at https://www.jumpersandjazz.com.au/celebration-of-local-flavours and can be submitted by post to PO Box 1264, Warwick QLD 4370 or by email at jumpersandjazzinjuly@gmail.com.

Covid-related mask-wearing requirements in Queensland were due to end today but of course the virus continues to re-emerge periodically as a threat both to the health of the vulnerable and to normal day-to-day activities for everyone else. The mandatory behaviour regulations such as mask-wearing raise that interesting question of the age-old conflict between the ‘collective good’ and the rights of the individual. That’s perhaps too philosophical a topic to address in these few hundred words but - and at the risk of this turning into a sermon - it’s also perhaps a pointer to the other wider concept of caring for others. Or at least trying one’s best to be mindful of the struggles others are going through, including those who at one time or another may be worse off than oneself. The key concept there is ‘empathy’. Empathy is more than just wishing someone ‘thoughts and prayers’ on social media, and it’s more than some vague abstract feeling. It’s certainly a lot more than ‘sympathy’. Empathy is both a skill - which can be acquired, worked on and developed - and a conscious action which requires genuine effort. Perhaps the communal impositions upon and curtailments of personal freedoms we’ve all endured over the last fortnight are a reminder that others’ needs are sometimes bigger than our own, and to be grateful for all the special kindnesses that others extend to us in times of personal struggle. Including those received from unexpected but nonetheless very welcome quarters. On a separate note, Jess Baker’s story this week on economic figures for the Southern Downs and Granite Belt region’s shines a light on where we are at as a community when it comes to our economic growth. Again, Covid has been a block to some of that, here as elsewhere, but it’s also true that Covid cannot be used as a reason or an excuse for every kind of delay and inaction. And while we know ‘the economy’ and ‘growth’ are not the solutions for every challenge our community faces, they are vital. Clearly the Southern Downs Regional Council takes economic growth seriously and is devoting significant resources to this area of its activity. While gains are not to be expected overnight - it is a long-term goal - such gains are measurable and the community is entitled to assess to what extent gains have been made. One of the key questions is where will the growth in jobs be for the next generation. It’s an area we’ll collectively keep an eye on with great interest.

Vince is a top volunteer By Jess Baker 84-year-old Vince Hemmings, a well-known Warwick identity and a dedicated volunteer, has been named the March 2021 Southern Downs Regional Council Volunteer of the Month. Councillor Sheryl Windle presented Vince with the award at the 24 March ordinary council meeting on behalf of SDRC and praised him for his many contributions to the community. “Vince is a tireless volunteer within many local community organisations,” said Cr Windle. “He has never been one to sit back waiting for someone else to do it. If any individual, or, organisation, needs a helping hand Vince has always been willing to put up his hand to help.” Cr Windle is on the board of the Warwick Women’s Work Camp, along with Vince, Cr Gliori and others, and said Vince has had an enormous impact on those that have been through the facility. “On retiring from farm life, in the mid1990s, Vince quickly became involved with the Warwick Women’s Work Camp,” said Cr Windle. “He started out by helping the girls with mowing, initially at Glengallan Homestead. He then went on to teach the women the art of French polishing. “Once the women mastered the skill, Vince went on to assist the girls with the huge task

Southern Downs Mayor Vic Pennisi and Councillor Sheryl Windle presented Vince Hemmings with the Volunteer of the Month award at a March ordinary council meeting. of restoring all the red cedar doors, architraves, windows and skirting boards at Glengallan Homestead. “This was followed by the women refurbishing 117 pews at St Mary’s Catholic Church, ably guided by Vince.”

Cr Windle said Vince has assisted the women at the Warwick Work Camp with countless other projects, including restoring furniture at the Warwick Masonic Lodge, French polishing the Choir Loft and doors at St Mary’s Church and the pews at the Yangan Masonic Lodge,

refurbishing the Allora Show Society tables and chairs, and refurbishing and painting the antique equipment display at the front of the SDRC Yangan Road Depot - to name a few. Cr Windle said Vince was also, until recently, the greenkeeper at the Southern Cross Bowls Club. “He was there every day starting at 5.00am. He had to start early so he could fit that and everything else into his day,” said Cr Windle. Vince also volunteers with St Vincent de Paul, with Rosies, at St Mary’s Parish, and has been an active member of the Warwick Work Camp Community Engagement Committee since its inception in 1995. “He also volunteers for the Warwick Show and Rodeo Society,” said Cr Windle. “You will see him volunteering at every Show, Working Dog Trials and Rodeo. While the Women’s Work Camp was closed during Covid he spent extra time there carrying out mowing and maintenance.” Cr Windle thanked Vince for his unwavering commitment to the community, calling him one of the “most unassuming, kind-hearted people” she has ever met. Vince was emotional in accepting the award, saying his efforts were not made to be noticed but he was grateful all the same. Vince’s family beamed with pride as he reflected on his volunteering efforts. Congratulations Vince, the community thanks you for all that you do.

New park home approved for radio station by SDRC By Jeremy Sollars The Southern Downs Regional Council last week approved a development application for the re-location of local community radio station Rose City FM into a purpose-built new facility, with the cost being met by the council. The station has been based for many years in the former Rosenthal Shire council building off Willi Street and Glen Roads but will re-locate to adjacent to the Warwick Bridge Club in Victoria Park, off Wallace Street in Warwick. The re-location will follow the move of the Warwick Men’s Shed and the Warwick Woodcutters from the former Rosenthal Shire depot sheds just to the rear of the current Rose City FM site. Those groups last year shifted to new premises - also council-funded - in the Warwick Industrial Estate. The move of all three organisations itself comes ahead of a planned sell-off of the Rosenthal Shire depot and offices land by the council, with the combined site being one of Warwick’s prime real estate redevelopment locations. The land - high on the hill with views across the north and east of Warwick and beyond to the Main Range - is expected when eventually sold to net the council at least a

six-figure sum, but no timeframe for the sale has yet been publicly detailed by the council. The new Rose City FM building in Victoria Park is budgeted to cost $326,000 with funding through the Queensland Government’s Works For Queensland program, as was the funding for the new shed for the Warwick Men’s Shed and Warwick Woodcutters. As the Victoria Park land is council parkland and the council is funding the new building, the development application was effectively the council applying to itself for approval. The application was originally classified as ‘impact assessable’, meaning it was required to be publicly advertised with the public able to lodge formal submissions either for or against. A council spokeswoman this week said no submissions were received from the public on the application, which was approved by council officers rather than being subject to a full vote of councillors at a general meeting. “The impact assessable application was decided by delegated authority (by council officers) because under current delegations, the decision only goes to Council where submissions against the development are received,” the spokeswoman said.

Rose City FM is a volunteer-run community radio station. “No submissions were received in relation to the Rose City FM application.” Work on the new Rose City FM building must be completed by the end of June this

Design in ‘4 to 6 months’ By Jeremy Sollars A detailed design for the major upgrade of the Warwick Saleyards is likely to be up to six months away, following a vote of Southern Downs councillors in early March. Mayor Vic Pennisi this week also indicated that the final cost estimate for the upgrade could be anywhere from $3.5 to $10 million. Current councillors in March voted five to four in favour of a $7.5 million ‘third’ option for the future improvement of the Warwick Saleyards, long a point of controversy in the local livestock sector and wider community. The other options voted down last month were construction of a brand new saleyards and a more expensive major upgrade, costed by consultants at $15.6m and $13.9m respectively. The chosen ‘middle’ upgrade option likewise estimated by council consultants at $7.5 million did not come with any details about specific design elements, with Cr Pennisi telling the community in March that more information was still to come. Members of the council’s Saleyards Advisory Committee and many in the community expressed anger at the time that the $7.5 million option appeared to be based on little or no concrete details. Warwick and Stanthorpe Today this week asked Cr Pennisi and the council’s chief executive officer Dave Burges for a status report on the saleyards, with Mr Burges advising that an ‘internal working group’ has been formed within council to progress the project and has met “several times” already. Mr Burges said a “detailed design” is expected to be finalised “within four to six months”, and said the council would then seek to apply

The current cattle scales and weighbridge area at the Warwick Saleyards. for funding sources from the state and federal governments. The council has made it clear its intention is that ratepayers will not shoulder the full cost of any upgrade to the Warwick Saleyards but until state and federal grants, if any, are secured the ‘cost split’ will remain open to speculation. As a cost split comparison, a major $14 million upgrade of the Casino saleyards in northern New South Wales over the last several years was split 50-50 between the NSW and federal governments and the local Richmond Valley Council. Mayor Pennisi this week said while $7.5 million was the estimate attached to the final council decision in early March the potential cost of a Warwick upgrade - depending on

what’s included - could end up anywhere between $3.5 and $10 million. But he said he and the councillors would await the detailed design to be overseen by the council’s internal working group. “I don’t personally believe it will be $10 million, but it depends what we want to get out of the project,” Cr Pennisi said. “Do we want a ‘hard’ roof over the selling pens or just shade cover, and do we want new drafting facilities - those are some of the questions we need to answer. “As a council we’ll be aiming to cap the cost at the $7.5 million, and it could end up being a lot less. “I’m expecting we’ll have a preliminary design from the working group by June or July

A quick re-cap ... At least five consultancy firms - Wiley and Co, ProWay, Outcross AgriServices, GeoLink and AgriBusiness Development Institute - have been contracted over the past several years to provide advice and reports on future options for the Saleyards, at a cost to ratepayers of $300,000. In favour of the $7.5m option in March were Mayor Vic Pennisi, Deputy Mayor Ross Bartley and Councillors Andrew Gale, Stephen Tancred and Cameron Gow. Against were Councillors Jo McNally, Sheryl Windle, Cynthia McDonald and Marco Gliori. Crs Gliori and McDonald had previously made clear their position was in favour of the ‘greenfield’ option, having voted in favour of that option as members of the Saleyards Advisory Committee. Mayor Vic Pennisi made it clear he was opposed to both the original ‘greenfield’ and ‘brownfield’ options, saying he was fearful that a new saleyards or a major upgrade could “become another WIRAC” and a “millstone around the neck of the council”. of this year. “That’ll give us a basis to start getting our applications together for (state and federal) funding programs that will open up next financial year.” One such program is likely to be the Federal Government’s ‘Building Better Regions Fund’ program.

Mask-wearing rules continue for another week... Queensland Premier Annastacia Palaszczuk and Chief Health Officer Dr Jeannette Young announced last week that mask-wearing requirments for the whole of Queensland would continue until next Thursday 15 April. This followed the lifting of the three-day, pre-Easter lockdown for the Greater Brisbane area. As of Tuesday of this week there were no active cases of Covid in the Darling Downs region of Queensland Health, which includes the Warwick and Stanthorpe areas. There have also been no positive results of Covid in wastewater in Warwick or Stanthorpe detected by Queensland Health since the last week of December last year. Positive results can also include “fragments” of the virus shedded into wastewater - for example via the toilet - by persons who are no longer infectious. Dr Young said anyone in Queensland with any COVID-19 symptoms, no matter how mild, should still get tested immediately and isolate until you receive a negative result.

Queensland Premier Annastacia Palaszczuk. “It is also critical that everyone is sure to check in wherever you go, and give accurate details,” Dr Young said. “This allows our contact tracing teams to really quickly identify those who may be affected by a new case.” MASK-WEARING REQUIREMENTS FOR THE WHOLE OF QUEENSLAND ...

Assistance is available... By Jeremy Sollars and Jess Baker The Southern Downs Regional Council says as efforts “shift from disaster response to recovery, Council is reaching out to residents, business owners and primary producers to gauge the level of damage sustained from last week’s severe rain event”. “Council is asking residents that were impacted by flooding to fill out a brief online form so an accurate picture of the damage sustained across the region can be ascertained,” a spokeswoman said. “The form can be accessed by visiting Council’s web site at www.sdrc.qld.gov.au “At this stage, the release of Category B or C recovery grants for small businesses and primary producers under the Disaster Relief Funding Arrangements jointly administered by the Queensland and Australian Governments have not been triggered, however primary producers can contact the Department of Agriculture and Fisheries (DAF) for support. “Primary producers impacted by the event may be eligible to access assistance DAF’s Individual Disaster Stricken Property Certificate process. “More information can be found at www. daf.qld.gov.au or by calling DAF on 13 25 23.” Chair of the Local Disaster Management Group Mayor Vic Pennisi said it is “vitally important that primary producers, business owners and anyone else impacted by this event lets us know what level of damage they sustained”. “This information will be used to inform whether the Disaster Relief Funding Arrangements will be triggered and it will help Council plan to respond to future events,” Cr Pennisi said. “Council staff have been on the ground throughout the event, with officers closing roads to keep our community safe, then reopening them as floodwaters receded. “Assessments of damage to roads and other

Flooding at the back of the Eastern Suburbs and Collegians JRL clubhouses in Warwick. Council infrastructure continue to be gathered and Reconstruction of Essential Public Assets (REPA) funding through the Queensland Reconstruction Authority has been activated for the Southern Downs. “Our staff have once again gone above and beyond in ensuring the safety of our community and I take my hat off to them. “If you have any questions please contact SDRC’s Customer Service team on 1300 697 372, by emailing mail@sdrc.qld.gov.au, using the MYSDRC App, or using the online services at www.sdrc.qld.gov.au” SDRC sewerage systems ... According to an SDRC spokesperson, the heavy rainfall in the week before last had very little impact on SDRC sewerage systems. “Although there was infiltration of stormwater in the sewer causing some sewer overflow, the system has returned back to normal operation,” said the spokesperson. Warwick and Stanthorpe Today reported in late March that Southern Downs councillors have been told they will need to invest an additional $30 million over the next five years in repairing failing sewerage systems. At last week’s ordinary council meeting, Southern Downs councillors voted in favour of entering into two separate contracts for two separate upgrade projects at the Warwick Sewage Treatment Plant.

SDRC has decided to enter into a $350,000 contract with GeoForce Solutions Queensland to undertake remediation work and manage potential health and safety risks and structural failings of retaining walls at the plant. The decision follows a geotechnical investigation by geotechnical engineers, engaged by Council in 2020, that found signs of small scale instability like “localised bulging and dilation”. A second project, voted for in last week’s ordinary meeting, will see a septic receival unit installed at the Warwick Treatment Plant. The project should come at no cost to SDRC, as SDRC has access to $300,000 grant funding under the Covid Works for Queensland funding program for the project and the Re-Pump contract is for the sum of approximately $290,000. The purpose of the unit installation is to reduce health and safety risks to plant operators and truck drivers, to improve the processing of septic waste, to allow for “correct charging of the waste” and to enable SDRC “to control the discharge of waste, preventing unauthorised disposals”. Official totals ... Total rainfall for Warwick - according to the Bureau of Meteorology - for the January to March 2021 period was 406.8mm, with 277.6mm in March alone. Stanthorpe recorded a total of 302.5mm for January to March, with 188.9mm the total for March.

No pipeline update As at time of printing this week the Queensland Government had made no announcement about the proposed Toowoomba-Warwick water pipeline. On Monday 29 March Queensland Premier Annastacia Palaszczuk had been expected to visit Warwick to make an unspecified announcement about the pipeline but her visit was cancelled due to the emerging Covid situation at that time. The Premier’s office has since given no indication what the announcement would have entailed, and if it would have meant the pipeline is still a goer or has been put on hold indefinitely due to last week’s rain. Warwick and Stanthorpe Today this week asked the Premier’s office if an announcement was expected either this week or next and was told this was “unlikely”. The Premier last visited Warwick in January 2020 and announced plans to “fast-track” the pipeline, which if built would allow Warwick and Stanthorpe to access emergency town water when needed from Brisbane’s Wivenhoe Dam via Toowoomba, which is already connected by a pipeline to Wivenhoe. But to date there has been no further progress aside from a $1 million feasibility study by SEQ water agency Seqwater, the report from which remains under wraps. The specific details of the route through Warwick were not released in January 2020 but Premier Palaszczuk and former Southern Downs Mayor Tracy Dobie at the time said private property resumptions along the route would be “minimal” as the route would “mostly” utilise existing public road reserves.

Young, and in business... By Jess Baker Female entrepreneurs are certainly making headway in the business world, but they are still a minority here in Australia. New data from the Australian Bureau of Statistics (ABS), released in February 2021, indicates 35.8 percent of Australia’s business owners/managers are female. 20 years ago, in January 1991, ABS recorded 30.6 percent of Australia’s business owners/ managers were female – meaning the percentage of female business owners/managers in Australia has climbed at an average annual rate of 0.26 percent. The change is not rapid, but it is change nonetheless. And the trend appears as though it will continue. What is perhaps more difficult to gauge, is whether Australia has made any significant progress in encouraging youth entrepreneurship. Data from the most recent census tells us that 40 percent of small business owners in Australia are aged between 45 and 59 years old. 33 percent are aged between 30 and 44 years, 19 percent are aged 60 years and over, and only 8 percent of small business owners in Australia are under 30 years of age. These figures reflect what many already know to be true. Young people – specifically young women – are hugely underrepresented in Australian business leadership. Why might this be? 26-year-old Stanthorpe entrepreneur Bre Newman said fear of not being taken seriously by others could be prevent-

Bre Newman of Granite Ink. ing young people from taking the leap into business ownership. “You have in your mind that other people question what you’re doing,” said Bre. “My advice would be to just do it. Don’t think about it too long.” Last month, Bre’s tattoo studio, Granite Ink – believed to be the first tattoo studio in Stanthorpe – celebrated one year of business. Bre said she dreamed of owning a studio for years, but she never expected her business would grow as much as it has as quickly as it has.

“I had a really amazing, positive response from the community and was inundated (with demand) when I opened the shop,” she said. “There’s still a bit of a stigma around tattoos so I was prepared for an iffy response.” To keep up with demand, Bre has hired a second full-time tattoo artist and a receptionist. She also has plans to add piercing services to Granite Ink later this year and is considering taking on another full-time employee. While young people can often feel like they lack the resources, the support, the confidence

or the money to start and maintain a business, Bre’s experience is proof that with passion and planning anything is possible. “I just figured it out,” said Bre. “I asked a lot of questions and I think, maybe because I am younger, people were willing to help.” Bre’s advice to other young people considering a move into business ownership is simple: “inform yourself and have realistic expectations”. “Don’t get sucked into entrepreneurship culture or ‘make a billion in your first year’ programs,” she said. “You’re better off just speaking to real people … people who are where you want to be, doing what you want to do.” Bre began tattooing at just 20 years old, under the guidance of an artist based in Chinchilla, and has known since then she would one day like a creative space of her own. “I worked as a graphic designer and held a number of odd jobs, but I was really interested in tattoo art,” said Bre. “I realised when I moved to Stanthorpe there were no (tattoo) shops around and I thought ‘bugger it, I’ll do it myself’.” By March 2020, less than two years after moving to town, Bre had purchased, renovated, and begun operating from her Maryland Street studio. Bre said she counts herself lucky to get to do what she loves every day, and still can’t quite believe she has been able to make a career out of her passion.

Brewery and distillery coming to town in near future By Jess Baker Stanthorpe’s town centre will soon welcome an exciting new micro-brewery and distillery. An application by Kim and Paul Gaffney to turn a property at 61 Maryland Street into a restaurant and brewery has been approved by Southern Downs Regional Council (SDRC), despite concerns raised by a neighbouring business. The development will also see a beer garden, tasting area and outdoor dining area included at the site. Kim Gaffney said he hopes Stanny Brewhouse will be a hub for both tourists and locals. “Initially it’ll be mainly tourists who visit because locals aren’t necessarily into craft beer yet, but they will be,” he said. “As far as the restaurant side of things go, hopefully the locals are attracted to that.” According to a report tabled at SDRC’s 24 March ordinary council meeting, Kim and Paul Gaffney expect Stanny Brewhouse will eventually produce 1000 litres of beer weekly and 2500 litres of spirits annually. Despite these high levels of production, the microbrewery is considered by Council officers to

Existing Maryland Street building set to become the micro-brewery and distillery area of Stanny Brewhouse. Picture: SDRC ORDINARY MEETING AGENDA, 24 MARCH 2021 have “minimal noise pollution”. “The most noise intrusive activity is a grain mill which will operate one hour each week which makes a level of noise similar to an electric drill,” read the report. “This activity is to be undertaken within the building which will limit the level of the noise from the grain mill.” Council officers noted in the report that two “properly made submissions” were re-

ceived to the proposed development application after it was advertised to the public. The main concerns raised in the submissions were in relation to potential noise issues, odour, stormwater runoff from the site, and limited car parking availability. Owners of a neighbouring business the Apple and Grape Motel, Steve and Helen Ward, wrote in a submission to SDRC that they are “happy to see more tourist facilities in Stanthorpe” but issues associated with the proposed development must be addressed by SDRC. “We have a significant number of guests that work shift and odd hours … We do not want to lose business due to excessive party noise from this development,” read the submission. “Conditioning an acoustic fence of the appropriate height and construction may provide the necessary amelioration. The current metal fence is not suitable in fact it may serve to reverberate the noise. “The second issue, which is highlighted in (Kim and Paul Gaffney’s) proposal, is that of odour. “It would be appropriate for Council to condition the development to provide ad-

equate filters on the system and extraction to sufficient height to allow the correct dispersal of any odours to a satisfactory level.” Southern Downs councillors unanimously voted in favour of the micro-brewery and distillery development, subject to a number of conditions. SDRC conditions include restrictions on hours of micro-brewery and distillery operation as well as waste and odour management instructions. “The operation of the use and disposal of waste are to be carried out so as to ensure that any odour generated by the development does not cause nuisance or disturbance to persons or property not connected with the development,” read the report. Kim Gaffney said the decision by SDRC has set plans for Stanny Brewhouse in motion. “My next step will be to get a producer’s licence and then we’ll have to put in a building application to do renovations,” he said. “We’ll be open for business probably six to nine months after the building approval is passed.”

Unemployment still low By Jess Baker A year into the pandemic, the Southern Downs’ unemployment rate is lower than Queensland’s pre-Covid unemployment rate. In February 2021, the Australian Bureau of Statistics (ABS) recorded a 6.1 percent unemployment rate for Queensland, compared to a 5.7 percent unemployment rate for Queensland in February 2020. According to Southern Downs Regional Council’s economic profile with Informed Decisions (ID), residents of the SDRC area are faring better today than Queenslanders were pre-Covid. Using the ABS labour force survey and Centrelink data compiled by the Department of Employment, ID has determined the unemployment rate for SDRC area is 5.6 percent, as at September 2020. This compared to Regional Queensland’s 6.8 percent unemployment rate, Queensland’s 6.8 percent unemployment rate, and Australia’s 6.1 percent unemployment rate – all according to ID and all as at September 2020 – suggests the Southern Downs’ economy is strong. It is worth noting that the Southern Downs’ unemployment rate has steadily increased since the beginning of last year. ID data shows the region’s unemployment rate was just 3.5 percent in March 2020, increasing to 4.0 percent in June 2020 and to 5.6 percent in September 2020. ID has also identified, using census data, that the jobs-to-residents ratio for the Southern Downs in 2019/20 was 1.01, meaning there were

The Big W Distribution Centre on East Street. The site has been bought by Melbourne developers the Pelligra Group, who are yet to announce their future redevelopment plans. more jobs in the region than resident workers. ID data indicates that rental, hiring and real estate services had the highest jobs-toresidents ratio (2.67) in the Southern Downs, while electricity, gas, water and waste services had the lowest (0.73). This means there were more jobs in real estate than there were Southern Downs residents employed in the sector, and more Southern Downs residents employed in electricity, gas, water and waste services than there were jobs available in the sector. If there are more local residents employed

in a sector than there are jobs available for that sector in the Southern Downs, it can be assumed some residents are commuting out of the region for work. This is the case in a number of industries, according to ID, including mining, manufacturing, construction, wholesale trade, accommodation and food services, public administration and safety and information media and telecommunications. A Council spokesperson said major employment industries within the SDRC area include agriculture, healthcare and social as-

sistance, retail, manufacturing, construction and tourism. “Some emerging industries include agtech, agritourism, ecotourism, multi-modal transport and freight distribution,” said the spokesperson. In SDRC’s March 2021 Information Session, a Council officer shared that approximately 16,000 people in the region are employed of a total 35,452 residents, and of these 16,000 employed residents 18.6 percent work from home. One of Warwick’s biggest employers is the Big W Distribution Centre, which is set to close its doors in the financial year 2023. The impending closure has been a major concern among local residents, particularly in recent Covid-19 times, as it is likely to lead to a surplus in unemployed workers. A Big W spokesperson said the closure was announced in 2019 and employees at the distribution centre were given plenty of notice “so they can carefully plan what they want to do next”. “As we get closer to the site closure, we’ll be doing all we can to support each individual team member with their transition, whether it be within the Woolworths Group or outside of it,” said the spokesperson. In February 2021, the Woolworths Group, who own Big W, announced a $50 million Future of Work Fund for the next three years that aims to help “upskill, reskill and redeploy team members impacted by industry disruption and technological change”. Part of the funding will go towards reskilling team members impacted by Woolworths’ Warwick distribution centre site closure.

Council environmental strategy open for discussion By Jess Baker The draft strategy for environmental sustainability has been released by Southern Downs Regional Council (SDRC) and is open for public consultation until Monday 12 April 2021. The aim of the 2021-2023 Southern Downs Environmental Sustainability Strategy (SDESS), according to a release by SDRC last week, is to enhance the region’s natural environment and to benefit residents, visitors and industries. The Strategy document identifies four key areas where action will improve the local environment: valuing water, protecting nature, reducing emissions and building economic resilience. According to the draft document, SDRC and the community will implement a number of major activities over the next 10 years to improve the region’s water system, reduce emissions, grow businesses and communities and protect the region’s native wildlife, plants and waterways. Targets for 2030 include reducing drinking water use by 25 percent, ensuring more than half of SDRC parks, sporting fields and open spaces have access to recycled water, and

achieving a minimum 90 percent compliance of households with water restrictions. “Our goal is a resilient water supply system that meets current and future community, environmental and economic needs,” reads the document. The Strategy also details ambitious goals for emissions reduction and climate protection, including increasing the use of renewable fuels for energy, moving to electric cars powered by green energy, encouraging low carbon agriculture, and making homes and businesses more energy efficient. SDRC’s ultimate goal is to be a net zero Carbon Council by 2050. Community targets for the next decade, according to the Strategy, are to decrease per capita use of energy by 25 percent and increase per kilowatt hour of electricity produced by renewable fuels by 25 percent. “With a changing climate, the region is already becoming drier with decreased rainfall over winter and spring, more days over 40 degrees and an earlier and more severe fire season,” reads the document. “There has also been an increase in the severity and frequency of major storms. “As a community, we recognise the impor-

tance of reducing greenhouse gas emissions and the impact of further global warming.” SDRC is also aiming to grow businesses and communities and to have zero “avoidable” Council-generated waste go to landfill by 2050. The Strategy states that by 2030, the percentage of residents employed by local businesses should have increased by 10 percent, per capita household waste generation should have reduced by 15 percent and visitor numbers should have increased by 25 percent. The final goal of the Strategy is to “value and enhance” nature by conserving threatened species, managing invasive species and protecting landscape and environmental heritage. Some of SDRC’s key targets include having no net loss of native vegetation from 2025 to 2030, improving river health and increasing participation in conservation programs by 20 percent. Granite Belt Sustainable Action Network (GBSAN) president Rick Humphries said the Strategy is a welcome blueprint for improved sustainability, but the region really needs to see action.

“There are some significant initiatives in the Strategy across water management, greenhouse gas emission reductions, waste management and protecting our biodiversity that if implemented will set the Southern Downs on the pathway to sustainability,” he said. “However the caveat is that SDRC must invest in the implementation of these programmes. The creation of a strategy is a good start, but we are yet to see any tangible investment in environmental sustainability from this council. “We understand the public feedback on the first draft was significant and positive. In spite of the budget constraints, the council must start allocating adequate financial resources from the 2021/22 budget to deliver on the priorities outlined in the Strategy.” Following this period of public consultation, a final draft of the SDESS will be brought to SDRC’s 28 April 2021 ordinary meeting for consideration of adoption. To read the full draft SDESS, visit https:// www.sdrc.qld.gov.au/living-here/sustainability/environmental-sustainability-strategy. SDRC is accepting feedback by email at sustainability@sdrc.qld.gov.au.

Valuations released

Big Book Sale

WarwickStanthorpeToday.com.au

By Jess Baker New land valuations for properties in the Southern Downs Regional (SDRC) area have been released by the Queensland Valuer-General and will come into effect from 30 June 2021. Land values in both Warwick and Stanthorpe have increased since 2016, with median residential values increasing from $95,000 to $100,000 and $82,000 to $90,000 respectively. “The valuations reflect land values at 1 October 2020 and show that the Southern Downs region has increased by 11 percent overall since the last valuation in 2017,” the ValuerGeneral’s office said in a statement. “Rural land values have increased significantly throughout all country types within Southern Downs Regional Council due to strong commodity prices as well as a low interest rate environment. “Residential properties in Warwick saw minor increases and there were moderate increases in Stanthorpe residential. There were moderate reductions in the Warwick CBD and Stanthorpe commercial lands.” The Valuer-General said Queensland has seen significant increases in land value in a number of regional areas over the last 12 months, particularly in values for grazing and broad-acre farming properties. “As with previous years, confidence remains in Queensland’s rural sector with conResidential localities

tinued strength in beef and commodity prices and historically low interest rates, leading to a high volume of sales across the state. “Low interest rates have been a big driver with finance available for farm aggregation and business expansion, supported by strong beef and rural commodity prices.” Median values for rural residential land, industrial land and multi-unit residential land within the SDRC area are generally unchanged from previous median values as at

The annual Rotary big book sale is on again. The second hand book sale is opening next Thursday 15 April for four days from 9am to 4pm at 50 Albion Street (former Daily News Office). “We can’t wait to open the doors” said Rotarian Sally Edwards. “We have even more donated books, CD’s and DVD’s than last year in every category”. “There are two rooms full of quality kids’ books both fiction and non-fiction and every child who comes receives an extra free book.” “This is one of the main fundraisers for our club each year. President Doug Bryce “all the money raised goes back into the local community”. “We usually run the book sale in April and last year we were all set up when the covid pandemic hit and we had to delay our opening until July,” he said. “This year we are back on track but covid precautions still apply. “Everyone will have to sanitise their hands on entering and maintain a safe distance from other patrons however it is a big space and there is plenty of room for everyone to keep a safe distance apart. “There is plenty of parking around the back of the building and in side streets and there will be volunteers on hand to help you to carry out your books if you buy up big”. “Paperbacks are just $1 and hardbacks $2 so there is no reason not to stock up on some great reading. “There will also be homemade fabric bookbags to buy for just $1 and a great Autumn themed raffle with gifts for the whole family.” Rotary are still accepting the donations of books. They can be dropped off at B and K Motors in Albion Street.

Global renewable energy giant Acciona last week announced that it and international metals group Korea Zinc Co have “reached an agreement to jointly develop the MacIntyre Wind Farm in Queensland (923MW), one of the largest renewable energy projects in Australia, and the largest energy project in ACCIONA’s portfolio”. The wind farm is proposed to be located on land straddling the Southern Downs and Goondiwindi council areas, across Pikedale, Goldfields and Karara. A development application is currently with the Queensland Government but is yet to be approved. “Under the agreement Ark Energy, a subsidiary of Korea Zinc Co, will take a 30% stake in MacIntyre Wind Farm, with Acciona retaining 70%,” an Acciona spokeswoman said. “Acciona will remain responsible for managing the project through its development, construction, operations and maintenance stages. “Acciona has secured a long-term Power Purchase Agreement (PPA) with CleanCo, Queensland’s newest public electricity company, which will acquire the annual production from 400MW of ACCIONA’s facilities for ten years. “MacIntyre Wind Farm will also power Sun Metals Corporation, a Korea Zinc Co subsidiary in Australia, helping the metals group meet its target of obtaining 100% of its energy from renewables by 2040.

Q&A

with Ray Mattiazzi

This week’s ‘Q&A’ segment is with local Granite Belt identity RAY MATTIAZZI, director of Carnarvon Funeral Services. Ray has spent his entire life in the Stanthorpe area, and is well-known for his friendly nature and positive approach to life. Thanks for speaking with us this week Ray! When you wake up, what are the first three things you do? I wash my hands and my face, I make a cup of coffee and I fly the Australian flag up the flagpole. If you could spend 24 hours anywhere, where would you choose? The Santorini, those Greek islands. Or the Amalfi Coast ... Positano. What’s something people may not know about you? I’m a pretty open book, but maybe something people don’t know is that I’m a history buff. What do you do to relax? Sit around an open fire. I get my UE boombox thing and Spotify my favourite songs. Sit down with a beer and look at the fire. Love it. What are you most grateful for? That birthdays keep coming around. What would your last meal on earth be? A nice plate of ravioli with my homemade sauce and parmesan cheese. What’s the best book you’ve read? I don’t do a huge amount of reading but I do like Hacksaw Ridge. What is your favourite spot in our region? Mount Marlay Lookout, especially at sunset. What is the best piece of advice you have ever received? Your first expense is your last expense. At school I... Was just average. I enjoyed my sport. Sport occupied most of my time in the schoolyard.

THREE … to keep kids occupied and busy...

Create a game box Fill a box full of things your child can play with alone - things like coloring books, playing cards, or easy puzzles. When you need to keep your kids busy, give them the box. They might resist at first, but the more you do it, the more they’ll accept “game box time” as part of their routine.

Send them to a friend’s house Work out a deal with another parent on your street. When you need some time, send your kid over to play with their kid. To be fair, you’ll have to let them send their kid over sometimes, too. When two kids play together, they keep themselves distracted.

Suggest a science experiment Let your kids discover the world. Teach or show them something about an object or their surroundings and let them explore it. That might mean giving them a magnet and telling them to see what sticks, or giving them a bowl of water and prompting them to see what will float and what will sink.

TOP PICKS OF THE WEEK

MISSION: IMPOSSIBLE – FALLOUT

SUNDAY

NINE, 8.30pm

AVENGERS: AGE OF ULTRON 7MATE, 8.30pm

“Earth’s mightiest heroes” Thor (Chris Hemsworth), Captain America (Chris Evans, left), Iron Man (Robert Downey Jr), The Hulk (Mark Ruffalo), Hawkeye (Jeremy Renner) and Black Widow (Scarlett Johansson) unite once again in this blockbuster addition to the Marvel comic-book movie collection. This offering goes souldeep as they face Ultron (James Spader), a fierce, cunning and crazy villain with plans of world domination and cruelty.

TUESDAY

OLD PEOPLE’S HOME FOR 4 YEAR OLDS ABC TV, 8.30pm

This sweet and stirring series is just the salve for anyone feeling disillusioned by the world’s problems. Following a group of senior citizens as they bond with an exuberant and curious bunch of four-year-olds, we witness the mental and health beneﬁts for everyone involved – and it contains a lot of smiling. In the second instalment of this ﬁve-part series, the seniors and children go on a treasure hunt designed to help improve their memory. Fiona teaches the class a crab dance that the seniors will have to perform at the end-of-the-week treasure hunt. Meanwhile, a hesitant Maureen get a helping hand on a seaside stroll.

FRIDAY

THE LIVING ROOM WIN, 7.30pm

It’s Friday night, and you don’t know what to order. A serve of cooking nostalgia with chef Miguel (above)? Or how about a singing class? What about a de-clutter and reno with gentleman Barry Du Bois? Or perhaps you’re after a spot of nature with the most clever mammal in the sea? Well, on Fridays you’re in luck. We all know we get a little spoilt for choice watching The Living Room because the hosts love to pack so much in. Tonight, you can have it all. Barry helps a family of singers and improvisors hit the right note with their messy abode. Em Rusciano gives the hosts a singing lesson, while Chris Brown goes diving with dolphins and Miguel reinvents Ready Steady Cook. Enjoy.

The Mission: Impossible franchise is one that keeps getting better with each ﬁlm, and its sixth instalment is a thrilling, actionpacked outing from start to ﬁnish. After Ethan Hunt’s (Tom Cruise, below) decision to save his team results in stolen plutonium falling into the wrong hands, he must retrieve the material before it is used by a terrorist group and their leader. Joining regulars Simon Pegg, Ving Rhames and Rebecca Ferguson is Henry Cavill, who plays a CIA assassin tasked with monitoring the team. Loaded with incredible set pieces, gripping tension and an excellent cast, Fallout is a superior action movie for all audiences. Tom Cruise stars in Mission: Impossible - Fallout

Reduce our water loss Queensland farmers and dam owners have another tool to their belt to help combat the devastating effects of drought. Speaking in Charters Towers as part of the Regional Community Forum, Resources Minister Scott Stewart said the EvapAdvisor website would help farmers reduce water losses to evaporation. “Dams play a key role in our approach to water management with more than 243,000 across Queensland,” Mr Stewart said. “While some much needed rain has filled many dams across Queensland, now is the time for dam owners to make sure they are looking at all options into preserving as much water as possible. “EvapAdvisor is a free tool that gives farmers access to the latest rainfall and evaporation data from the Bureau of Meteorology to help determine if water storage covers makes economic sense.” Evaporation can result in the loss of significant amounts of water, as high as 3000 millimetres a year in Queensland, and with changes in Queensland’s climate this number is expected to rise. Although numerous evaporation reduction methods exist, adoption in Queensland is relatively low. At least half of Queensland’s stored water is held in dams small enough to benefit from shade covers, floating covers or, potentially, chemical applications. The EvapAdvisor website is the latest development as part of the Palaszczuk Government’s Natural Resources Investment Program. Minister for Agricultural Industry Development and Fisheries and Minister for Rural Communities Mark Furner said changing climate and seasonal conditions mean

Mark Furner.

Welfare laws review Queensland farmers need every possible tool at their disposal. “Anything that can help our farmers to better understand the factors impacting on their water supplies means they can make the right decisions in managing their farm businesses,” he said. Mr Stewart said the department has invested $160,000 to date through the Natural Resources Investment Program in a partnership with the University of Southern Queensland to research and develop EvapAdvisor. “While we can’t make it rain it is important that we do everything we can to help dam owners conserve water,” Mr Stewart said. “The Queensland Government has been working closely with leading scientists from the University of Southern Queensland to make sure dam owners have the right data to make an informed decision.” Dam owners are encouraged to visit the EvapAdvisor at https://evapadvisor.com/

Queenslanders have been invited to have their say as the Palaszczuk Government initiates a major review of animal welfare laws to ensure Queensland laws keep pace with community expectations. Minister for Agricultural Industry Development and Fisheries and Minister for Rural Communities Mark Furner said the review will continue to ensure that our animal welfare laws remain current and protect the welfare of all animals in Queensland . “I know Queenslanders love their animals as valued members of their families,” Mr Furner said. “They are also vital to agricultural production, involved in sport and recreational activities, and they assist individuals and services in areas such as quarantine and security.” “While the current laws have served us well, they’ve been operating for 20 years without a significant review. In that time, the community’s expectations for animal welfare has evolved. “This review will examine all aspects of the Animal Care and Protection Act 2001 to ensure that the Act continues to meet changing community expectations and modern animal welfare practices.

“RSPCA Queensland is an important animal welfare partner with the Queensland Government and we will be working closely with them on this review. “I encourage anyone who has an interest in the care of animals to have a say as part of the review - whether you have pets, produce livestock for a living, or work with animals.” As part of the review, we are seeking feedback on issues including: Mandatory reporting by veterinary professionals of animal welfare concerns; Prohibited events, regulated surgical procedures and offence exemptions; The use of baits and traps; Restraining dogs in open utility vehicles and trucks; The use of animals in science; Inspector powers and arrangements for externally appointed inspectors; The management of animals seized during animal welfare investigations; and Penalties for animal cruelty. Have your say before midnight, Friday May 21, 2021. Visit biosecurity.qld.gov.au and search for ‘ACPA review’ to complete the survey or submit a written response.

Stock Squad hones skills against livestock theft These figures include the theft of approximately 7,051 head of cattle, representing a reported value of at least $7 million. The rural-stock investigation course is hosted yearly by the Queensland Police Service in Millmerran since it commenced in 2001. Each year, the course trains existing and hopeful investigators from across the state, as well as from other policing jurisdictions in the skills required to carry out livestock investigations. This includes a range of practical components such as equine and motor skills, animal husbandry, navigation, mustering, exhibit handling and brief preparation. Detective Superintendent Colin Briggs of the Drug and Serious Crime Group said MOCS Rural investigators consistently worked on enhancing prevention and disruption strategies,

from around the state and where possible, their counterparts from other policing jurisdictions to share knowledge and experiences. “With investigators located in regional areas across the state, the community can have confidence that MOCS Rural are committed to investigating and prosecuting farm, stock and rural crime,” Minister Ryan said. “The skills they are learning and refreshing at this course are only going to better equip them to do so. “From compliance checks in saleyards and inspecting vehicles carrying livestock to disrupting other rural crime, I’m confident these MOCS Rural officers will return to their respective communities ready to continue the great level of service they already provide to our Queensland rural communities.”

Minister for Police and Corrective Services and Minister for Fire and Emergency Services the Honourable Mark Ryan MP last week congratulated Detective Superintendent Colin Briggs from the Drug and Serious Crime Group, and the Queensland Police Service’s specialist rural investigators, on their rural-stock investigation course and their dedicated commitment to supporting regional Queenslanders. Detectives from the Major and Organised Crime Squad (MOCS) Rural - also known as the Stock Squad - are continuing to enhance their skills to be best placed to work with regional communities and ensure the security of agricultural industries in Queensland. Livestock theft has a significant impact on producers across Queensland, with a total of 203 cattle and sheep occurrences recorded in the past two years alone.

Easter Markets a big hit The lifting of Greater Brisbane’s snap threeday lockdown came just in time for the Easter long weekend, with many heading straight to Warwick to celebrate. Cooped up Brisbanites and other out-oftowners joined Warwick locals at Leslie Park on Saturday 3 April for the Easter Fair Extravaganza. The annual Easter markets, hosted by the

Warwick Potters’ Association and Warwick Artists Group, are a celebration of locally made arts and crafts and are always a fantastic way to kick off the Easter weekend. This year’s event looked a little different to that of previous years, with attendees sanitising between stalls and wearing face masks, but attendees said the restrictions in place were a small price to pay to allow them to enjoy the markets with friends and family.

Peter Nickl’s Luv a Cookie baked goods were a huge hit.

Jo, Claire and Nick Nelson of Stanthorpe Honey had the best masks of the day.

Huge crowds of people flocked to Leslie Park.

Warwick locals Deakon Brown, Emma Hughes, Kolton Brown and Dearne Hughes.

Amanda Pierce, owner of Warwick-based jewellery store Amanda Jayne, sold handmade resin earrings at the markets along with Kelli Mullins.

New Queensland-wide mask-wearing rules did not stop locals and tourists from shopping their favourite Easter treats. 22 TODAY Thursday, 8 April, 2021

Eleanor Wallace, Dan Bycroft and baby Jade came from Springfield Lakes to see Warwick’s sunflower fields and visit the markets.

Sweet and savoury food trucks and stalls kept attendees well-fed as they wandered the markets.

Sisters Jessica, Elizabeth and Gemma Telleman enjoyed their first ever Warwick Easter Markets experience.

The Southern Downs ARK brought tens of adoptable cats along to the markets, in hopes they might find their forever homes in passersby.

Attendees were treated to live music throughout the day.

Club celebrates 20 years By Jess Baker Warwick’s only known active weight loss club, Warwick Weight Crunchers, has celebrated 20 years of existence. Club president Susan Burgess said she believes the key to the group’s longevity is its caring and non-judgmental members. “I am very proud of our achievements as a club,” said Susan. “Weight Watchers disappeared from Warwick many years ago and to my knowledge our club is the only one active. “Initially the club had to register with Weight Loss Queensland who checked on the operations and set certain guidelines in place. “After a few years the members grew, and it was decided to become incorporated so we could have our (own) rules.” Susan said Warwick Weight Crunchers is a very social group and meets for lunch on the second Monday of every month. “Guest speakers are usually locals as we try to promote local business,” she said. “Stephanie’s Lingerie with owner Lyndall showing us how to wear lingerie had the ladies in stitches last month. “Due to Covid we had no bus trips last year but (we) have gone as far as the Australian Outback at Coomera the year before with a busload of ladies. “We also every year donate to a charity of our choice, whether it be ARC Animal Rescue (or) donating $200 to Headspace to help our youth.” 23 members of the group met last month, on Monday 22 March, at the Coffee Club Warwick to celebrate the significant milestone.

President Susan Burgess (left) and members celebrated the 20 year milestone at the Coffee Club Warwick, where owner Petula Kenny (right) provided morning tea and a $50 gift voucher to raffle. Picture: SUPPLIED The club has a yearly registration of $10 per person, and $5 for every meeting attended. “We meet at the Oak Tree in O’Leary Street

from 9.00am to weigh in and our meeting starts at 9.30am to finish around 10.30am. Coffee and tea are available for free.”

Autumn colours on show Over the last week I have had a drive to Tamworth and what a delight to see the change in the country. It’s been quite a while since I drove south and as I came into the Summit there on the left was a paddock filled with multi-coloured cosmos. It was absolutely beautiful. They are native to Mexico and southern areas of America and were named “cosmos” using the Greek word for “harmony or ordered universe” by Spanish priests because of their evenly-placed, orderly petals. The spectacular riot of multi coloured blooms in the paddock by the roadside is anything but ordered but is certainly harmonious! It is a sight well worth the short drive to see. Others have told me that they have seen people in there harvesting the flowers, maybe for the floristry trade. Perhaps they weren’t just planted to please passers-by! Further down the trees had their autumn colours on show - deep claret ash, red gold liquid amber, brilliant gold poplars, red oaks, some that still had green contrasting with the red that had already turned - a truly a heartwarming sight. How lucky we are to live in an area where we are able to enjoy the definite change in the seasons. It may not be so obvious in Warwick but it certainly is a short drive away in the Stanthorpe area. I have had a plant growing in my garden for some time that I had no real idea of what it was or where it came from. It didn’t appear to be

Ruby salt bush... a weed so I left it growing where it came up ... after all, as is so often said, “a weed is only a plant or of place”. This one fitted in quite nicely and for some time I have enjoyed the contrast

prefers soils that are slightly saline, so maybe useful for regenerating areas of salt degradation. It likes well drained soil, full sun and is tolerant of at least moderate frost and is easily grown from seed or cuttings. Sounds like a perfect garden plant for our area. The fruit has a slightly salty taste apparently, however, after writing on the toxicity of garden plants recently, I haven’t tried them! The leaves are edible but best eaten cooked, or sparingly when fresh, as they are high in oxalates. Kept clipped, as it would be in its natural state with grazing animals, it would be a very attractive small shrub. Maybe I shouldn’t have pulled it out after all! I have some very old gidgee posts in my garden that came from well out west in our state and an errant seed must have been clinging to these is my only suggestion as to how the plant ended up in my garden. I know seeds have fallen from this one so hopefully it will come again next year and now that I know what it is, it will be encouraged and propagated from cuttings. I have used some sprays in a flower arrangement and will try and see if I can get it to grow from these. With my notoriously “brown thumbs” I don’t have a real lot of hope. This one has survived and even flourished, in my garden with minimal care so who knows? It is great to see the change in my garden and lawn that the rain has brought and I really don’t mind having to cut the kikuyu every few days!

of the fine soft blue grey foliage against the strappy dark green leaves of the hippeastrums. Lately it has become a bit unruly and untidy and I thought it was time it went. It had tiny insignificant creamy white flowers and had recently developed small decorative soft red berries. I have some family members who are experts in all things botanical so I sent off a few pictures and asked for clarification. It looked as if it could be a western area herbage plant and maybe really good stock feed, but I had no idea how or where it had come from into my garden. After consultation it has been determined that it is “ruby salt bush” so I was right about its value as stock feed and where it might grow. My brother just happened to still have, from his early studies into saltbush, a copy of volume 4 of “Flora of Australia” with pictures and information on this plant and sent me a link. His first suggestion, on seeing the photos, was that it was the plant that original Australians may have given to Burke and Wills to try and save them. The botanical name is “Enchylaena tomentosa” and has long been a sought after food source by Indigenous Australians, early settlers and livestock. It is a perennial plant, highly drought tolerant, suitable to a wide range of soils and found over a wide area of Australia from the east to the Kimberly. The first known specimens collected by Europeans, were in the Brisbane river area in July 1855. It apparently

The Spin Smashing cricket ceiling The Australian Women’s cricket team, the Southern Stars don’t much care for “glass ceilings” or the record book of men’s cricket . This outstanding group of sportswomen continue to redefine the boundaries of not just women’s cricket but Australian Cricket. On Easter Sunday, the Australian women secured the ODI win against the Kiwi side, the White Ferns with a six wicket win. With that victory the Southern Stars set a new World record - 22nd consecutive ODI win and in doing so eclipsed the 21, match winning streak set by Ricky Ponting’s men’s team in 2003. The Southern Stars have remained unbeaten from March 12, 2018, to April 4, 2021. Their winning streak started with an eightwicket win over Indian women in Vadodara almost three years ago. They have since won seven consecutive ODI series. Interestingly, Alyssa Healy, Beth Mooney, Rachael Haynes and Ashleigh Gardner have appeared in all matches. This is one talented group of cricketers who continue to smash the white ball, pink ball, red ball in fact any cricket ball right though that glass ceiling. It is genuinely delightful to watch this skilful group of cricketers do what they do better than the rest. - Casey

COWBOYS BACK IN THE SADDLE Rugby League players and supporters have had a long wait but finally after a year in limbo the Toowoomba Rugby League comepitition makes a welcome return this weekend and all the signs are there for a bumper season. The season gets underway with all four of the top teams from season 2019 going head to head and TRL chairman Rex Zeeman is excited as the season is about to unfold. On Saturday night Wattles host Dalby while the much-anticipated 2019 Grand Final replay kicks the season off for the Cowboys and Valleys at Herb Steinohrt Oval on Sunday. “It sends a strong message that football is back,” Zeeman said. There will be three solid weeks of comepitition before the annual 47th battalion Carnival which this year will be hosted by Bundaberg. Looking ahead the 2021 finals series begins the last weekend in August. The 2021 Grand Final is set down to be played at the Toowoomba Sports Ground on September 19. A decision on venues for the remaining games throughout the finals series is yet to be made by the TRL board. It has been a long time between drinks for supporters of the Warwick Cowboys, but the Cowboys get the chance to atone for their defeat in the 2019 grand final on Sunday when they face off against the Roosters. It may be almost 17 months ago but the memory of the loss to the Roosters in the 2019 Grad final after leading at half time lead will be as fresh as yesterday in the minds of the players involved in that game. Warwick have made several positive additions to the ‘A’ Grade side since the grand final disappointment. As a season opener the Cowboys could not have asked for better and on the back of their Barrett Shield win over Wattles a couple of weeks ago the Cowboys should head into this game in a confident frame of mind. Coach Matt Grew says his side has had a solid preseason of training and a couple of good hit outs against Wattles in trial games. He will be looking for a solid performance from the players. The recent flooding at Fr Ranger Oval caused only a minor glitch in the Cowboy’s preparations and saw them head to WIRAC for some indoor training and not missing a beat. While the Cowboys showed good form in their trial games there is no doubt this will be a tough outing for both teams. September is a long way off, but a win here will give the Cowboys and their fans plenty of confidence for 28 TODAY Thursday, 8 April, 2021

RESTRICTIONS LIMIT NUMBERS BUT NOT QUALITY In conjunction with the snap COVID lockdown in Brisbane last week some previously relaxed restrictions in a range of sports were also reintroduced. Golf was one of the sports affected and as a result only 16 women took out cards in the Sporters Rose Bowl event last Wednesday. The Ladies are extremely grateful to the Warwick Sporters’ Club their continued sponsorship of the women’s event on the fifth Wednesday of the month throughout the year. Jill Barnes had a great round to finish with a winning score of 35 points just one point in advance of Di Macdonald (34 points) who is another player showing some good recent form. Following her win, Jill will now have her name engraved on the prestigious Rose Bowl trophy which has been played for since 1953. As The winner, Jill also received a beautiful ‘bowl’ as a memento of the win while Di accepted a $25 voucher from the Proshop. Thanks to the Sporters club for their very generous trophies. Receiving a ball each were Di Johnston (32), Maria Carey (30) on a countback from Helen Olsen (30), Anne Lyons (29), Joan Burt (28) and Roslyn Darton (27).

SIMON SAYS “OTHERS WILL WIN” Although living away from Stanthorpe Simon Shannon remains a member of the Stanthorpe Golf Club and was back at his home club on Sunday playing in the stableford event which he sponsored. Simon had an excellent round returning 43 points which would have been the winning score of the day had he not, as sponsor excluded himself from the prizes, handing them down to the next best scores. Fortunately, he did receive a run-down prize

Casey O’Connor

Members of the Stanthorpe golfing community came out in force prior to the start of last Saturday’s competition as SDRC Mayor, councillor Vic Pennisi officially opening the Club’s new machinery shed. The construction of the new shed was made possible thanks to grant funding worth $24,000 from the SDRC and the Federal Government. and topped off a good afternoon by winning the club raffle at the end of the day. Visitors to the club for the Easter event featured in the eventual winners list with Will Lathrope from the Blackwater GC accepting the main prize after he returned 41 points for the round. Jamie Stuart of the Carbrook GC collected the runner up for his 40 points. Stuart also left with the eagle towel for his effort at the par five, 11th hole where he was in the hole in three. The run down went to 37 points and better for a trophy. In the ladies event, Lisa Stuart continued her run of wins returning the best score of 37 points. One point back on 36 was Trish Fittock who left with the runner up prize. It was a similar story a fortnight ago however on that occasion a countback was necessary. The ladies run down went to Kay Webb (32 pts) and Linda Kelly (31pts). Thanks to Simon Shannon for sponsoring the afternoon and for his generous gesture with the prizes. With the sudden return to Covid restrictions, the day was only able to proceed with members and visitors adhering to some new Covid rules and protocols. Thanks to everyone for observing these conditions and ensuring the day proceeded smoothly.

RANCH SORTING COMES TO WARWICK Cowboys and Cowgirls across the Southern Down have the opportunity to compete in a Ranch Sorting event at the Warwick Showgrounds on the weekend of April 17 and 18. Entries are now open for the Warwick event which will be the second RSNCA affiliated Ranch Sorting in Queensland in 2021. Competitors must be current members of the RSNCA however membership is free until June 30 so simply visit the website https://www.rsnca. net.au/membership-application.

The Warwick event follows the RSNCA & Hivesville & District Recreation Association Ranch Sorting at the Kilkivan Great Horse Ride on April 10. There will be Buckles for the High Point Mens, Ladies & Youth rider for the weekend along with a Buckle cup for the High Point Beginner Rider along with 50% Payback for each class. The event will be held at the Warwick Showground where you can enjoy canteen facilities, dinner & bar available Saturday night kindly arranged by the Warwick Show and Rodeo Society Inc. Unsure what the sport is all about? Ranch Sorting is a western-style equestrian sport that evolved from the common ranch work of separating cattle into pens for branding, doctoring, or transport. It is an event that pits a team of two riders on horseback against the clock. It is not a judged event. Competitors are rated in a nine-point rating system that is based on statistical performance with a two-man team sorting 10 cattle numbered 0-9 and 1 unnumbered cow for a total of 11 head. A producer has the option to add 1 more unnumbered cow. A run starts with team members on opposite side of start line from cattle. Entry forms are available at https://www. rsnca.net.au/event/ranch-sorting-in-warwick. If you’re new to RSNCA Ranch Sorting, please complete the “New Ranch Sorter Rating Survey” and return it to receive your rating. For further details call Cindy (0438 412 616) or email: hendersonproductions@hotmail. com Or simply get along to the Warwick Showground on April 17 and 18 and enjoy the family atmosphere of RSNCA Ranch Sorting and have fun whilst making new friends.

18TH PLALAYER CONFIRMED ARL Commission chairman Peter V’Landy’s has once again shown he is not willing to let the grass grow under his feet. On Tuesday he said he and the commission has been listening to the concerns of players and coaches and confirmed an 18th player will be in use from round five. The 18th player ( any registered player from their top 30 squad) as will be able to take the field if three players fail a head injury assessment or when a player suffers a match ending injury caused by foul play. Foul play will only be determined if the opposition perpetrator is sin binned or sent off. The ARL Commission clarified an 18th player can be a registered NRL player who is eligible for selection in that round and part of the 21-man squad. Clubs must identify their 18th player on the team sheets they provide an hour before kick-off. V’Landy’s said, “Player wellbeing is a priority for the Commission and this additional safety net ensures players continue to be protected.”
