The cost of rain By Jess Baker Southern Downs Regional Council (SDRC) officers have revealed the cost of local road repairs following recent rains will soar above the “disaster trigger point” of $233,000. Repair works for damage sustained during February 2020 flood events had reportedly just begun when rain flooded the region once

again last month. “The March (2021) flood event has put the 2020 (repair) works on hold,” said SDRC Director of Infrastructure Services Seren McKenzie. She said the target for completion of repair works is now March 2022 for the 2020 event and March 2023 for the 2021 event. Following the recent rains, a number of

local residents have reached out to SDRC to request road damage be addressed. Ms McKenzie said conditions are still “too wet” for maintenance to recommence. Killarney resident Paul Stumkat said damage to Condamine River Road is particularly severe, given the many water crossings along the road, and requires urgent repair.

“I’ve written to Council several times asking them to fix the damage but they say it’s too dangerous for them to come out,” he said. An email addressed to Condamine River Road residents from SDRC staff said repair works will commence once they are able to safely get into the area. Story page 3

It took her an extra couple of weeks thanks to Queensland’s most recent Covid restriction period - but Premier Annastacia Palaszczuk made it down to the region last week for an announcement about the Toowoomba-Warwick pipeline as we report in this week’s edition. We had a false start in terms of a visit by the Premier in the week before Easter but it was unclear at that point as to the precise nature of the announcement. In these uncertain times it can be difficult to predict what our politicians are planning to do, but Ms Palaszczuk’s visit was “welcome”, to use a well-worn political term. Obviously it is early days for the pipeline project - and governments and priorities can always change - but the political will on the part of the current government to make this project happen appears to be genuine. I guess time will tell - along with the likely impact on the pockets of this region’s ratepayers. If the example of the Wivenhoe to Toowoomba pipeline is any indication, the impact will be significant, and ongoing for probably many years. Such is the price of long-term water security on the driest continent on earth. And really, what is the alternative for the Southern Downs and Granite Belt? In my view a pipeline from Toowoomba allowing us to access water from Wivenhoe in times of extreme water shortage is the most realistic long-term water solution for this region from an engineering perspective. And from a cost perspective, it’s also most likely the cheapest. Unless someone around here has a better idea so far I’ve not heard one, not one at least which would benefit both the towns of Warwick and Stanthorpe with their combined urban populations into the future. Carting water from Warwick to Stanthorpe has cost around $15 million, which has been a stop-gap measure. Likewise Emu Swamp Dam with its relatively small potential urban component - even combined with raising Storm King Dam - is not a long-term fix for Stanthorpe, and there is no realistic location in the Warwick area for a new dam. The other advantage of the pipeline is that it could bring water security to other towns just to our north along the route outside of our own council area - if those communities are likewise prepared to pay. And it could also be the start of a genuine water ‘grid’ for the wider Darling Downs region and even beyond, which to me is exciting. The politics of this project are complex and the costs high, but we must keep an eye on the long-term, and the bigger picture.

Damage costs revealed Last month’s widespread rain felt like a godsend to many in the Southern Downs region, but the damage it has caused local roads is anything but. Southern Downs Regional Council (SDRC) Director of Infrastructure Services Seren McKenzie revealed the severity of the damage at last week’s ordinary meeting, telling councillors that roads already compromised by February 2020 flood events will require costly, timely repairs. “The March (2021) flood event has put the 2020 (repair) works on hold,” she said. “There are a number of areas that overlap between the two events so we have to assess them closely, work with (Queensland Recovery Authority) and come up with the best way to resolve those.” A report tabled in last week’s ordinary meeting indicates that Restoration of Essential Public Assets (REPA) works for the region’s February 2020 flood event had only just commenced when the March 2021 flood event occurred. As a result, the target date for completion of works for the 2020 event has now been pushed until March 2022, with repair works for the

2021 event not expected to be completed until March 2023. “It’s still too wet … to get out there and make the roads safe,” said Ms McKenzie. “Officers are keeping a very close eye on those (impacted) roads and as soon as we can get there we will.” Ms McKenzie said starting repairs too soon could do more harm than good as machinery could fail and vehicles could become bogged, however some emergency repairs have commenced. “We will continue to make safe any areas from the last month that were unsafe, under our emergent works which we have 90 days to do,” she said. According to Council staff, the road damage sustained during last month’s flood event is still being assessed but will exceed SDRC’s “disaster trigger point” of $233,000. Staff noted in their report to Council that the March 2021 flood event was more widespread, and had a greater impact, than last year’s event. “There was more damage sustained to the sealed road network and typically to where flood waters crossed the road. Gravel roads were again damaged,” read the report.

“The differentiation between the 2020 and 2021 event will require some careful work and time.” Killarney resident Paul Stumkat said damage to Condamine River Road is particularly severe and requires urgent repair. The road has been closed to the public since mid-March due to “safety concerns” with recent rainfall, but residents of the road must still use it every day. “I have to continually drive through water which is nearly one metre deep to drop the kids to school and go into town,” said Mr Stumkat. “I’ve written to Council several times asking them to fix the damage but they say it’s too dangerous for them to come out.” Mr Stumkat said he and other Condamine River Road residents were sent an email from SDRC staff in response to calls for maintenance, explaining the road has been closed due to the depth of water at its crossings following recent rainfall events which restricts officers from inspecting damage. “Council’s ability to do works in the crossings without permits is restricted to minor maintenance, which we will continue to undertake when safe for us to bring in machin-

ery, and when the road has dried out so we do not cause further damage after wet weather events,” read the email. “Further to this, the last rainfall event is a declared event, meaning council needs to obtain good photographic evidence of any damages so repair works can be claimed through the (Queensland) and Federal Government Disaster Recovery Funding Arrangements.” SDRC staff advised residents they will undertake works “to ensure the road remains safe once (they) are able to safely get into the area”. The email, which was signed by SDRC Director of Infrastructure Services Seren McKenzie and Executive Assistant Barbara Fagan, also revealed that SDRC intends to form a working group to investigate options for the opening and closing of the road. A Council spokesperson said Condamine River Road remains closed, as at 20 April 2021, following an inspection on 19 April 2021. “Once the crossings are at a level deemed safe for staff to access them, Council will remove any large boulders or debris in the crossings,” said the spokesperson. “At this time, Council has no plans to install concrete crossings, and will only be undertaking minor maintenance works.”

‘Early works’ scheduled By Jess Baker Queensland Premier Annastacia Palaszczuk has announced a $20 million Drought Resilience Package for the Southern Downs, which includes an $8.1 million investment in early works for the proposed Toowoomba to Warwick pipeline. The Premier visited Warwick on Thursday 15 April to make the announcement, along with Queensland Minister for Water Glenn Butcher, Toowoomba Regional Councillor Nancy Sommerfield and Southern Downs Mayor Vic Pennisi. The proposed pipeline will allow Warwick to access water from Brisbane’s Wivenhoe Dam, which is connected to Toowoomba, during times of drought. Ms Palaszczuk said her government is “absolutely committed” to building the pipeline and to drought-proofing the region with the $20 million package which, as well as $8.1 million in preparatory pipeline works, includes $4.6 million in upgrades to reconnect groundwater available to Allora. The package also includes $1.4 million to help Southern Downs Regional Council (SDRC) move Warwick’s commercial businesses off town supply and onto bore water, $4.5 million to increase Leslie Dam’s usable water capacity by 1700 megalitres, and $700,000 to support SDRC in unlocking new water sources for Warwick, Allora and Stanthorpe. Ms Palaszczuk said the proposed pipeline will now also supply the Toowoomba Regional Council (TRC) townships of Cambooya, Greenmount, Nobby and Clifton. “Because we’ve had the extra rain, we’ve been able to do more work which means those other townships will be added,” she said. The new funding was announced just two weeks after the state government’s $15 million water carting program from Connolly Dam to Stanthorpe ceased. “It’s great to see Stanthorpe now has had that rain and that water carting is not needed but we still need to continue with my commitment to build that pipeline from Toowoomba through to Warwick,” said the Premier. The Queensland government also released the findings of a $1 million ‘feasibility study’ into the pipeline last week, turning its attention to the hefty task of building a full business case for the project. Southern Downs Mayor Vic Pennisi thanked the Premier for her government’s support over the last year and said his council looks forward to working with the state government on the pipeline. “The detailed business case for me is the way forward … whether (the pipeline) is affordable, whether it’s not affordable, it’s the next stage in the process,” he said. “And I look forward to working collaboratively with the state government while we go through that process.” Toowoomba Regional Councillor Nancy Sommerfield said collaboration between local governments is crucial, but so is maintaining Toowoomba’s water security. “For us to be able to work together with our

“We’ve done a lot of work on our water business over many years. We have water security for our Toowoomba bulk supply to 2050 and we want to maintain that.”

Cr Sommerfield said TRC will need to decide after the business case is completed whether it can “continue on this journey fully supportive”.

Water Minister Glenn Butcher announced the release of the Toowoomba-Warwick pipeline feasibility report. “Hopefully we look forward to good longterm water security for everybody … the Southern Downs, Toowoomba region, and other council areas that we have to work together with,” she said. The pipeline feasibility report, commissioned by the state government in late 2019 and completed by Seqwater in 2020, states that SDRC has expressed a preference for a raw water supply “as it would enable the Council to continue operations of the Warwick (Water Treatment Plant)”. The capital cost of a raw water pipeline is estimated by Seqwater to be $207 million, including contingency, compared to $169 million for a treated water pipeline. But the report states the cost of both pipelines become equivalent, and fall in the range of $190 to $195 million, when the costs of bringing forward a $150 million upgrade of the Mount Kynoch Water Treatment Plant by three years are considered. At the time of commissioning the report, Warwick’s main water supply storage Leslie Dam was expected to reach minimum operating levels by October 2020. By the time the report was completed in June 2020, Leslie Dam’s “run out” date had extended to mid-2022. The dam was at 13.4 percent capacity. Today, as at SDRC’s last update on 30 March 2021, Leslie Dam is at 27.9 percent capacity and has a “run out” date of late 2023. A Toowoomba to Warwick pipeline – whether it supplies treated water or raw water – is Seqwater’s preferred solution to “the eminent

Queensland Premier Annastacia Palaszczuk said the state government is committing $8.1 million toward preparatory pipeline works. water supply shortage” for Warwick.It is expected to deliver 7.7 megalitres per day to TRC and SDRC towns, comprising 1.3 megalitres per day for TRC towns on a permanent basis and 6.4 megalitres per day as a drought supply for Warwick and surrounding towns like Stan-

thorpe and Killarney. Traversing through Wyreema, Cambooya, Greenmount, Nobby, Clifton and Allora, and terminating at the Warwick Water Treatment Plant, the proposed pipeline route will be 93 kilometres in length (if water is treated) or

108.5 kilometres in length (if water is raw). Seqwater has assumed in the report, “based on consultation with officers from the SDRC”, that water for Stanthorpe, Killarney and other small towns and villages will – for the most part – be carted from Warwick. It is proposed that water will be discharged from the pipeline at immediate towns. Southern Downs Mayor Vic Pennisi said the detailed business case for the project will identify the most appropriate means of transporting water from Warwick to Stanthorpe, whether that be a connecting pipeline or continued water carting. “The proposal at the moment is to bring the pipeline to Warwick,” said Mayor Pennisi. “We’ve bought into the Emu Swamp Dam so we need to bear that in mind. “The pipeline is designed for emergency water and it’s designed to replace carting trucks to Warwick if Warwick (runs) out of water, but it has enough volume in there to supply Stanthorpe. He said the detailed business case will also reveal what the cost of the pipeline will be to ratepayers. The pipeline feasibility report states that most of the “physical works” for the project will be in public road reserves, with just one privately owned property and six state-controlled properties. It is expected 787 properties will face the pipeline alignment, and private land may need to be accessed during its construction. Continued page 6

NEWS WarwickStanthorpeToday.com.au From page 5 Ms Palaszczuk said 703 jobs will be created in construction of the Toowoomba to Warwick pipeline, many of which will be local. The state government has also committed $3 million to a Regional Water Assessment for the Southern and Darling Downs that aims to identify long-term strategic options for water security in regional Queensland. Minister Butcher said the assessment will commence mid-2021 and will investigate opportunities for economic growth in local communities, including in Warwick, Stanthorpe and Toowoomba. Storm King Dam upgrade works continue As last week’s Toowoomba to Warwick pipeline promised to increase water security for Warwick, a commitment to continue remediation works at Storm King Dam promised the same for Stanthorpe. During an ordinary council meeting held Wednesday 14 April, Southern Downs Regional Council (SDRC) resolved to enter into a $180,000 contract with civil contracting business Geotech for inspection and maintenance works at Storm King Dam. A report tabled at the meeting states that Geotech was initially engaged by SDRC in 2012 to complete safety improvement works to the Storm King Dam wall and install 15 post tension rock anchors along the crest of the spillway. The company has now been reengaged by SDRC to complete a necessary 10-yearly check-up of the post tension rock anchors. The $180,000 works will also see a “special access trolley system” installed along the main spillway crest to allow for safe travel between anchors during inspections. The works represent the final component of a $420,000 remediation project at Storm King Dam which is expected to be funded under the state government’s Works for Queensland program. According to the report tabled at last week’s meeting, Geotech has confirmed they can complete the works by the end of the financial year. Warwick and Stanthorpe Today reported in February that all projects under the Works for Queensland program must be completed by 30 June 2021for them to be eligible for funding. At the time, a Council spokesperson said projects that require extensions “for extenuating circumstances” can apply to the Queensland government for an extension but, if an extension is not approved, SDRC may be required to cover the remaining cost of the project or to cover the full cost of the project. Remediation works at Storm King Dam were only 30 percent completed in mid-February 2021, prompting SDRC to commence discussions with the Queensland funding department regarding the timeframe for the project’s completion.

The proposed pipeline will supply water from Wivenhoe Dam to Warwick via Toowoomba.

Following the announcement, Premier Annastacia Palaszczuk and Southern Downs Mayor Vic Pennisi visited Storm King Dam.

Water consumption notices issued Water meter readings have now been collected and finalised across the Southern Downs region. Water consumption notices will be issued by Southern Downs Regional Council (SDRC) this month, and are due to be paid 30 days after the Date of Issue.

mine if there might be a water leak at the property. Where a leak is identified, SDRC recommends the owner of the property engages a licensed plumber to locate and repair the leak. Property owners experiencing water loss due to “undetectable water leaks” may be entitled to receive water consumption relief – for which applications can be accessed via SDRC’s website. Residents who are experiencing issues

paying their notice by the due date may be able to organise a confidential payment agreement with SDRC and are encouraged to make contact with Council officers.

A fitting park memorial By Warwick RSL Sub Branch In 2013 the Southern Downs Regional Council presented a Master Plan for the refurbishment of the Leslie Park War Memorial Precinct, but progress faltered when a State Government grant application failed and council funds were restricted. In 2016 a Veteran community committee developed a design for a combined dais and memorial wall. Almost $94,000 was sourced from community donations and various government grants to enable the construction of the sandstone structure. SDRC provided project management. On 14 April 2019, the Dais was dedicated by Rev. Darren Muller and opened by the Hon. David Littleproud MP and Mayor Tracy Dobie. The SDRC invited proposals for the design of the attachments to the Memorial Wall section of the Dais. Mark McGowan, former member of the Dais Committee and current Board Member of the Warwick RSL Sub-Branch, produced a concept that was widely accepted. It comprises three black granite panels fixed to the front sloping surface of the Memorial Wall creating a style similar to the Dungaree Memorial. The centre panel has the shape of a Veteran’s head stone and depicts the silhouette of a soldier resting on reverse arms, the Warwick War Graves photo and the ode. This symbolises the respect we afford the Fallen. SOME GAVE ALL. The two outer panels contain 32 high resolution images of service on land, sea and air on a time line, represented by a vine, from the formation of the Federation of Australia to the present. The earlier images are on a single vine and this branches to indicate the differing duties eventually undertaken by the Australian Defence Force. These include War, Peace Keeping and Humanitarian. Many of these photos were purchased from the historic collection of the Australian War Memorial.

From the Boer War and the original ANZACS to the latest endeavours of the Armed Services, the contribution of each individual is given equal coverage so that the youngest Veteran or Serving Member can see their position

on the time line and that of those who went before. ALL GAVE SOME. The Warwick RSL Sub-Branch funded and assisted the development of Mark McGowan’s concept to expedite the completion of the

Memorial Wall. The graphic design was developed by Graphiker On Demand. MP Laser Engravings of Stanthorpe produced and fitted the panels in time for the Remembrance Day Service in 2020.

SDRC gives Stanthorpe childcare centre update After deciding to commence public consultation on the potential closure of Stanthorpe’s only major Outside School Hours Care (OSHC) centre last month, Southern Downs Regional Council (SDRC) has now provided an update. A report tabled in last week’s ordinary council meeting states that a survey of community needs relating to the future operations of the Stanthorpe OSHC have been completed, and the results prove the community is “overwhelmingly in favour of keeping the OSHC”. Council’s current lease at Corundum Street for the Stanthorpe OSHC is due to expire on 30 June 2021 and, with no option to extend the lease, SDRC will need to consider leasing an alternative site if it decides to continue operating the service. A report on the matter is expected to be provided to Council “in the near future”.

Court mention A 56-year-old Warwick man charged with sexual assault and attempted rape had the charges mentioned in the Warwick Magistrates Court on Monday 19 April 2021. The charges were adjourned for a further mention in the same court on Wednesday 19 May 2021. Under current Queensland law relating to the reporting of sexual offence court proceedings the man cannot be named at this stage of the court process.

Trevor Able of Able Custom Saddles.

A saddle legend... By Jess Baker 20 years of hard work has earned Granite Belt resident Trevor Able a reputation in custom saddlemaking that few can match. His status as a leading saddlemaker solidified at last month’s 2021 Sydney Royal Easter Show, where an Able Custom Saddle won first place in three categories: Western Saddle, Australia Equine Related Exhibit and Standard of Excellence. Trevor said he is thrilled to have won, particularly given the 2021 Easter Show was the first he had ever entered. “I don’t know how often that’s been done, winning all three classes,” he said. “But it’s a pretty special thing. I’m pretty happy.” Trevor said he spent 23 days making the saddle he submitted to the show, as it was an elaborate piece of work with an intricate design. At present, he is working on three custom saddles for customers in Victoria and across the world in Italy, each of which will take around 12 days to complete. The waiting list for a person to get their hands on an Able Custom Saddle is long, but evidently worth it. “There is currently a 13 month waitlist for custom orders,” said Trevor. “I’ve got 17 to build right now.” Trevor’s saddlemaking career began 20 years ago while working as a contract musterer, but his passion for building long-lasting

leather items started when he was a boy. “I made my dad a belt when I was 12 years old, and he still wears it,” he said. Trevor spent 25 years in Far North Queensland, mustering cattle six days a week, and would spend any time he had spare teaching himself the art of saddlemaking. “I rode a lot of horses, which helps as a saddlemaker, and I would do saddles on the weekends or until 1.00am or 2.00am in the morning and get up for work at 4.00am,” said Trevor. “It gives me great satisfaction, building saddles. Your heart goes into every saddle you make.” Trevor said he would happily live out the rest of his days building saddles in his workshop at The Summit. “I’ll probably die here working on a saddle,” he said. Though Trevor specialises in building saddles, breastplates, bridles and belts, he also offers saddle-making and leathercraft tuition classes. He has big goals, and hopes to one day host a Custom Saddlemakers weekend at the Stanthorpe Showgrounds. The event would be an Australian-first, with horse and western-related vendors from across the region, saddle-making classes, silversmith stalls and horseman clinics. “It would be a great thing for custom saddlemakers in Australia,” said Trevor. To view Trevor’s work, or to place an order

Stanthorpe to welcome new motel An application to develop a 24-unit motel in Stanthorpe has been approved by Southern Downs councillors, subject to a number of conditions. Site plans by applicants Kev and John Kearney include units to accommodate 62 guests as well as a manager’s residence and office, with 28 car parking spaces for guests and two for staff. Two submissions, both objecting to the proposed development, were received by Southern Downs Regional Council (SDRC) officers. Both submissions cited stormwater drainage issues at the site, and an expected loss of amenity due to high population density at the proposed motel, as grounds for objection. Southern Downs councillor Cynthia McDonald said that though she hasn’t seen the site herself, there does appear to be some stormwater drainage issues there. “I’m sure that (the issues) will be noted and taken care of once we have a stormwater management plan, before (the applicants) can actually progress,” she said in last week’s ordinary meeting. All Southern Downs councillors at the meeting voted in favour of the development.

NEWS

Profits slow right down By Jess Baker Six months of New England Highway safety improvement works between Stanthorpe and Ballandean have not only slowed traffic, but reportedly also sales for businesses located along the road. Owner of Glen Aplin Service Station Mick Reid said his business has reduced by 50 percent since roadworks commenced at Glen Aplin in October 2020. “They’re making everybody’s lives a misery,” he said. “We don’t complain about much out here, but this is now a major inconvenience.” The Queensland government has committed $19.4 million towards road widening and resurfacing works along the highway between Stanthorpe and Ballandean, to improve driver safety and freight efficiency. A spokesperson for the Department of Transport and Main Roads (TMR) said works are currently underway at three sections between: Glen Aplin Drive and Miners Lane at Glen Aplin, Calvert Road at Glen Aplin and south of Limerlost Road at Fletcher, and Fletcher and Bents Roads at Ballandean. The distance between Bents Road at Ballandean to Miners Lane at Glen Aplin is approximately 16 kilometres and would, in ordinary times, take a person 15 minutes to travel by car or motorcycle. At this stage of the roadworks, with singlelane closures and traffic control signals at four locations between Stanthorpe and Ballande-

an, it takes vehicles at least half an hour. Businesses in the thick of the roadworks said the traffic lights add an extra 40 minutes to their trips to town. “There are two sets (of traffic control signals) north of Glen Aplin, one set south of Glen Aplin, and one set at Ballandean,” said the TMR spokesperson. “Additional closures and lights are periodically installed during the day under manual control for the works. “The traffic signals have a typical cycle time of 60 seconds green, five seconds amber and 120 seconds red, with the phasing of the lights controlled to ensure traffic flow.” The TMR spokesperson said vehicle activated and manual control lights are in place during the day and vehicle activated and automatically timed lights are used after hours. “We monitor delays throughout the entire site and test to ensure they stay below 10 minutes,” said the spokesperson. “Unfortunately, occasional disruptions are unavoidable, due to vehicle breakdowns, faults or extreme weather.” Mr Reid of Glen Aplin Service Station said there is a set of traffic control lights at the section of road in front of his business, where long lines of cars are made to wait for up to 20 minutes at a time. “This has been going on for months. At one stage, they had six sets of lights through the roadworks here,” he said. Owner of Glen Aplin antique store Yestergear, Doctor Tania Nader, said traffic lights

were recently installed in the middle of her business’ driveway, with no warning and no consultation. After speaking with several construction workers at the site, she said the lights were removed and reinstalled 100 metres down the road, which changed very little. “We’re seeing 10 percent of the business we normally see,” said Dr Nader. “Our business relies on tourists, but they don’t know how to get out of this mess.” Dr Nader said long lines of vehicles parked at the traffic lights near her business block her from entering and exiting her own driveway for 15 to 20 minutes at a time. “It’s been many months of this now. We’re exhausted and we’re losing money every day,” she said. “In the long run, we might have a better road, but consultation along the way would have been appreciated.” Glen Aplin Autos, located at Glen Aplin Drive, also claim to have seen “a massive drop” in turnover due to the roadworks. The business claims that its intersection at Glen Aplin Drive has been closed since November, making it difficult for the business to take on new customers. “It’s definitely affected our business,” said a Glen Aplin Autos representative who asked not to be named. “There’s been a noticeable drop in business. Covid (2020) excluded, this is definitely the worst (year).” A number of Glen Aplin residents and busi-

nesses have said the safety improvements, which are being delivered as eight work packages, are often left unfinished with lengths of road in poorer condition now than they were pre-construction. Mr Reid of Glen Aplin Service Station said packages have lain dormant for months and, even when completed, are not safe to travel on. “People are now taking the back roads to town,” he said. “The (upgraded) roads should be able to handle rain, a bit of water and trucks, but they can’t. Someone’s going to get killed soon.” A TMR spokesperson said wet weather in December and January, and again in March and April, has resulted in some areas needing to be “reworked”. The program has been delayed as a result, with works now expected to be completed by the end of June 2021. Three of eight packages of improvement works between Stanthorpe and Ballandean are not yet funded for construction. “We consult with relevant residents and business owners on the New England Highway who are impacted by the roadworks, including about the placement of traffic lights,” said the spokesperson. “We apologise for the inconvenience and endeavour to minimise impacts from roadworks for motorists, residents and local businesses where possible.” The spokesperson said all enquiries, including reports about safety concerns and incidents, are investigated thoroughly, responded to and remedial action taken where necessary.

Aggressive dogs charge residents and their pets By Jess Baker Residents in Warwick have been left reeling after a series of encounters with menacing and aggressive dogs in their neighbourhood. Local Jennifer Carrel said a dear friend and neighbour of hers had been walking her miniature fox terrier, when two dogs at the corner of Oxenham Street charged at her. “Our friend was in such a state of shock, she was shaking,” said Jennifer. “She’s 85 so it’s not doing her heart any good. “So I offered to go on her daily walk with her from then on and we’ve been doing that for the past two weeks without any problem at all, until the other morning when we saw the same two dogs.” Jennifer said she and her friend immediately turned around to make their way back home but, as they did, the larger of the two dogs began to charge at them. “In the end I reverted to shouting at the dog ‘go home, go home!’ and he just kept coming for us in an aggressive way,” she said. “I called out for help. That’s all I could do. Luckily, at that moment a few of our neighbours came to us and tried to push the dog

away but the other was still coming towards us. “It was quite horrific really.” Jennifer said she and her elderly neighbour were both extremely shaken by the event and immediately called Southern Downs Regional Council (SDRC) and the police. The pair completed the relevant Council forms and gave their statements to officers, but Jennifer said she is yet to receive an update from SDRC. A Council spokesperson said SDRC does not disclose the outcome of compliance investigations for privacy reasons, but officers communicate with complainants throughout the compliance process to keep them up-to-date. “Our local law officers are highly trained and qualified in investigation skills and Council also provides an after-hours-on-call service to respond to dog attacks at all times and other emergent animal management issues,” said the spokesperson. “When investigating incidents, officers follow strict and thorough procedures to collect statements from witnesses, dog owners and any other relevant parties, as well as tak-

ing into account any other evidence such as photos or video footage.” Jennifer said she faced a similarly terrifying encounter this time last year with two other aggressive dogs. “We were walking around our crescent about a year ago when our dog was attacked and bitten,” she said. “After we complained last year, nobody contacted us at all. “Our safety is paramount. Has it got to take a young child to be mauled to death, or an elderly person to be mauled to death, before anybody takes action? “We want safety on the roads of Warwick.” After last year’s incident, Jennifer said she submitted a petition for action against aggressive dogs to SDRC with 21 signatures of people who lived in her crescent. One year on, she said she is yet to see any real progress by Council. “We’re risking our lives every time we walk down the end of our road,” said Jennifer. Residents who are concerned about dangerous dogs in their area or who have experienced a dangerous dog attack are encouraged to contact Council on 1300 MY SDRC (1300 697 372).

St Mark’s heritage festival Warwick’s St. Mark’s Anglican Church hosted a spectacular Heritage Festival over the weekend, starting with morning and afternoon teas on the old Rectory Veranda on Friday 16 April and ending with a beautiful baroque concert in the Church on Sunday 18 April. Quilt shows, history book sales, guided tours and light lunches kept visitors entertained all weekend long, with a performance by the talented Brisbane Baroque Players and two guest sopranos the perfect closer to the festival. Since St. Mark’s first Heritage Festival in 2015, Warwick locals - as well as interstate, national and international visitors - have enjoyed the opportunity to explore the 1868 sandstone Church and hear about its history. Organisers of the Heritage Festival were thrilled to once again be able to share stories of the Church with visitors, having had to cancel last year’s event due to Covid-19.

Warwick Bridge Club... Just as fishermen always bemoan the big one that got away, so bridge players are peeved at not bidding a small slam, which requires twelve of the thirteen possible tricks to be made. Missing a grand slam would be even worse, but it is only a small slam that can be made on the hand above (25 from last Friday). The auction was mainly a battle between North/South’s hearts and East/West’s spades. It would have been better for one North/ South pair if they had surrendered quite early. Their contract of 4H doubled, was defeated three tricks by John Rose and David Moran and incurred a penalty of 500. This was a top score East/West for John and David. Only two pairs East/West played in diamonds and only one reached as high as 5D, when declarer missed the winning play. The big one that escaped was 6D. With East as declarer, the five of hearts would be the common lead. Declarer can win with dummy’s Ace and discard the six of clubs from hand. Now the Ace and King of spades are cashed and the big moment arrives. East plays another spade and trumps it in dummy (West). Both of the defenders’ remaining spades fall, making East’s fourth and fifth spades good. Only now are trumps led and it takes four rounds to get rid of them. At any time of East’s choosing the two good spades can be played, allowing West’s remaining hearts to be discarded. Declarer makes four spades, a spade ruff, one heart, four di-

amonds and two clubs for twelve tricks and plus 1370. Results: Friday, 16/04/21 (6 & ½-table Mitchell): N/S N. Bonnell B. Bonnell (58.3) 1; Jenny Smith R. Hart (57.5) 2; N. Collins M. Simpson (55.8) 3. E/W T. Graham J. Nankervis (62.5) 1; J. Rose D. Moran (61.8) 2; C. Duggan M. Johnston (57/1) 3. Monday, 19/04/21 (6 & ½-table Mitchell): N/S N. Collins M. Simpson (68.9) 1; J.Rose P. Campbell (57.9) 2; T. Hinde J. Mobbs (52.1) 3. E/W H. Nielsen D. Moran (61.7) 1; P. Kelly J. Nankervis (53.7) 2; C. Duggan N. McGinness (52.5) 3.

John Rose and David Moran did well on this week’s featured hand.

TUESDAY

BACK ABC TV PLUS, 9.10pm

The enduring comedy duo, David Mitchell (pictured) and Robert Webb, return for a droll, caustic and insightful second season of their misﬁt comedy. Admittedly, it’s not laugh-out-loud material like the brilliant Peep Show or That Mitchell and Webb Look, but its quick wit and quips will conﬁdently embrace you. In tonight’s season two premiere, which comes a few years after we last met foster brothers Andrew (Webb) and Stephen (Mitchell), a morose Andrew faces the threat of a rival pub.

FRIDAY

THE MULE SEVEN, 8.30pm

Clint Eastwood’s ﬁlm career has spanned more than 65 years. He’s directed 37 ﬁlms and starred in more than 70. To say the man is a legend is an understatement. In The Mule, Eastwood, 90, is Earl Stone, an unassuming horticulturist and Korean War veteran who is desperately trying to atone for a life he sees as full of mistakes. While is daughter Iris (real-life daughter Alison Eastwood) prepares to be married, Earl becomes a drug mule for a Mexican cartel. But don’t let his elderly doddering fool you – he’s still got the steely stare and sharp shot practiced in all the Westerns of yore. A true master, this may be the great man’s swan song. Don’t miss it.

MONDAY

SECRET SCOTLAND SBS, 8.30pm

Most travel shows follow a tried-andtrue formula: an earnest presenter, who has never set foot at the location before, sets about to discover the locale, with lashings of wide-eyed enthusiasm. The endearing aspect of this miniseries is that the convivial host, comedian and QI regular Susan Calman, is a born and bred Scot. She has made it her mission to experience and unearth all the treasures in her country. Her patriotism – and candour – is infectious. Tonight, in the third instalment, Calman is at the famous Loch Ness. She meets a man who spent almost 30 years waiting for Nessie, and bravely takes a ride in a home-made submarine.

Liking this slow-burning psychological mystery comes naturally, thanks in part to its stunning Blue Mountains setting. The disparate bunch of staff and patients of Ward C, a mental health facility, are majestically perched high above the mountains. The main protagonist is gifted psychiatric nurse Nik (British actor Rudi Dharmalingam), who is discovering firsthand that sanity is a mercurial beast, but the audience is also treated to funny and empathetic story arcs about others, including aloof manager Linda (Mandy McElhinney). Tonight, Genevieve’s (Harriet Dyer) hyper-sexuality causes problems. If one episode just isn’t enough, find the rest on iview. Rudi Dharmalingam plays Nik in Wakefield

NEWS WarwickStanthorpeToday.com.au

Local writer BOB WILSON shares his latest ‘Observations’ column this week ...

Rainwater tanks save the day as water mindset changes Yay - the dams are full, creeks and gullies are running; rainwater tanks are spilling over. Everyone’s happy. Our three rainwater tanks are full, as you might expect of a region where two waterstarved dams reached 100% capacity in just two days. Not so long ago (2018-2019), things were dire on the Southern Downs, with Warwick’s Leslie Dam at 7.66% (it’s now 28%), and the Granite Belt’s Storm King Dam virtually empty (now 100%). In January 2020, a national news story told of the local Council carting water to Stanthorpe from Connolly Dam in Warwick. The cost, borne by the State Government, was $800,000 a month. Carting ended this month after the March rains brought Storm King Dam back to capacity. As you might expect, the district deluge was met by the relaxation of severe water restrictions which have been in place now for several years. Southern Downs Council had lifted daily water restrictions from 80 litres to 120 litres in mid-2020. Last week, the limit was raised to 200 litres per person per day. There are caveats on this, however, with permanent restrictions applying to the use of hand-held hoses to water gardens or wash cars. How quickly our mindset changes. We’ve gone from minimising the number of times the toilet was flushed and collecting shower water in buckets to using a hose (between 7am-9am and 4pm-7pm) to wash cars. Last time I washed our car I used water bucketed from our tank. It’s not so long ago that academics were advocating the use of re-cycled water to drought-proof houses. Writing at a time when at least seven New South Wales regional towns were in danger of running out of water altogether, Professor Roberta Ryan of the University of Technology Sydney (UTS) wrote in ‘The Conversation’ that the only real obstacle to using re-cycled water for a range of purposes was community acceptance. “Household waste water (which is what

goes into the sewerage system from sinks, toilets, washing machines and so on), is a more consistent supply, with 80% or more of household water leaving as waste water. “Furthermore, waste water goes to treatment plants already, so there is a system of pipes to transport it and places which already treat it, including advanced treatment plants that can treat the water to be clean enough for a range of purposes.” https://theconversation.com/80-of-household-water-goes-to-waste-we-need-to-get-itback-125798 You might recall that stories like this in 2019 and earlier were met with community opposition. In 2006, Toowoomba, Australia’s biggest inland city, voted against introducing recycled water. Those advocating re-cycled water (extracted from treated sewage), suggest using it to operate washing machines and toilets in homes and to irrigate parks and sports grounds. Many Councils already use recycled water for those latter purposes. As the Millenium Drought (1997-2009) worsened, State and local governments started creating rebate schemes to encourage house-

holds to buy and install rainwater tanks. In 2013, the Australian Bureau of Statistics found that 2.3 million households (26%) used a rainwater tank as a source of water, an increase from 1.7 million (19%) in 2007. The ABS said the increase from 2007 to 2013 may be attributed to water restrictions, government rebate schemes, water regulations and water pricing. South Australia had the highest proportion of households that used water from a rainwater tank (46%), followed by Queensland (34%). https://www.abs.gov.au/ausstats/abs@.nsf/loo kup/4602.0.55.003main+features3mar%202013 In the absence of an update, extrapolating the annual rate of growth assumes Australia now has close to three million rainwater tanks. Although authorities generally do not recommend that households drink harvested rainwater, the supply can be used for a range of purposes, including washing, bathing, laundry and gardening. In some parts of Australia, it may be the main source of household water, while in others, it can supplement existing mains or town water supplies. Rainwater Harvesting Australia, a committee comprised of irrigation industry leaders, advocates use of rainwater tanks as part of a blueprint for urban water management. A strategy is suggested (for South East Queensland), to consider use of storm water run-off to improve the diversity and resilience of water supply. The strategy also recommends rainwater tanks and a basic form of passive irrigation for street trees. https://rainwaterharvesting.org.au/2020/ 07/20/blueprint-for-urban-water-management/ The main criticism of rainwater tanks is that they breed mosquitoes and testing has shown sufficient pathogens in the water to dissuade many Councils from recommending it be used for drinking. A Productivity Commission draft report in 2020 criticised State governments for mandating re-cycling or rainwater tank installation

without a full cost benefit analysis. “Many governments, for example, set recycled water targets, mandate the installation of household rainwater tanks or specify that re-cycled water is to be used in particular applications (such as for flushing toilets). “These policy decisions are often set without clear and transparent evidence and analysis. They have driven significant investment and have sometimes resulted in higher costs than alternatives and failed to deliver their expected benefits.” The report cited Marsden Jacob Associates, which found that the costs outweighed the benefits by more than $2000 per tank in most cases. https://www.pc.gov.au/inquiries/current/ water-reform-2020/draft However, the intangible benefits associated with rainwater tanks include reduced town water and storm water infrastructure costs as well as environmental benefits (reducing local storm water flows). They also allow households to have flourishing gardens when water restrictions are in place. A recent study by the CSIRO (apparently a first), found that 96% of participants identified benefits with their rainwater tanks. The most prominent were: watering during restrictions (88%), reduction in water consumption (82%) and benefit to environment (71%). It is of some concern that the study found that only 58% of respondents (ABS survey), claimed to undertake any kind of rainwater tank maintenance. At present, householders have no legal obligation to undertake maintenance other than to minimize public health risks. https://www.waterportal.com.au/swf/ images/swf-files/10tr4-001-csiro-swf-finalreport.pdf Dare I suggest Councils are missing out on an opportunity for an annual maintenance inspection (and a fee, of course).

Here’s the latest contribution from the Rose City Writers - this week from MASON BUSHELL... April Fool - Or Not? April Fool’s Day Pranksters at play Avoid being picked Don’t want to be tricked Suspicious Envelope on the table Air with caution! Read the label This may be a trap Could release flying crap Bad things hide in there Nasty bills or a snare Is this a prankster’s game? His claim to fame Slit the envelope wide Nothing exploded or dyed Everything seems sanguine Until you reveal a speeding fine! Andy’s Accounts Andy had been a publican for many years. Those who knew him, called him eccentric, to say the least. He always wore the brightest shirts and mismatched ties. Even his glasses look to have been made from a packet of Skittles. That was the least of his eccentricities. He was obsessed when it came to counting his takings. Being accurate made him smile. Inaccurate made him mad! He’d line up every

coin and note in banks of five &mdash; then count them five times. If the figures were good, he’d rearrange everything into banks of ten &mdash; then count everything ten times to be sure. With the takings counted, he turned his attention to the proof of sales sheets. He’d go through every transaction; checking and counting every single cent. Two hours of counting every night would ensure the takings and sales were right to the cent. They always were; until they weren’t. “What! How can I be twenty dollars down!” he yelled to nobody as he completed his accounts at 1 AM. “I’ll begin again,” he determined as he laid the money out once more. Again, and again; all night he counted. Try as he might the discrepancy never grew smaller. twenty dollars was indeed missing. “Perhaps something wrong with my calculator. Nope &mdash; No ... That’s preposterous I count everything in my head!” Andy began pacing. He downed a glass of water. Took up as proof of sale sheets and scanned every last detail for the fiftieth time. “I have a thief!” Bartenders Susie, Alice, Richmond and Terence were all summoned and regimented by the bar at 10 AM. Each decked out in black trousers and their choice of brightly coloured shirt. Each looked petrified with only their eyes moving, following Andy as he roamed back and forth before them. “Andy, what’s wrong? I can tell by the circles under your eyes you never went to bed last

night,” Susie said looking concerned for her boss. “We have a thief. One of you stole twenty dollars last night. I ... “ “No, that’s not possible none of us would steal anything,” Richmond said looking shocked as he glanced at the others. Had they? Could they steal anything? “Don’t interrupt me, Richmond.” Andy scowled at him, “I counted everything a hundred times. I checked and rechecked all night long. I finally gave up just thirty minutes ago. Twenty dollars is missing and one of you took it!” “Never. You look shattered. Why don’t you let us count everything to be sure,” Alice said looking hopeful for a solution. “My maths are sharp and perfectly accurate. The accounts are always accurate to the last penny. It is an eccentric day when I get something wrong ... “ The bartenders looked at each other struggling not to laugh. Andy caught them and banged a hand on the tabletop. “This is not funny. You have five minutes to own up or I’ll fire you all!” Terence looked at his colleagues and received a nod. “Andy, did you happen to look at the clock when you started counting?” “What? Why would I do that when counting?” Andy snapped. “Humour him. What time was it when you

started counting?” asked Susie. “12:15 AM why?” “The date?” Richmond pressed. Andy’s eyes roamed between his team members faces. “April’s first.” “April fooled you!” Everyone pulled on large grins. Each withdrew a five dollar note from his or her pocket. “Five, ten, fifteen, twenty.” Andy counted each note five times, “You mean you each stole five dollars as a joke?” “Yes, we always work hard to make sure our tills are spot on every day for you. You see, we know how much you love all of your figures to be accurate. We thought, just for once, it’d be funny if the tills were inaccurate. We didn’t expect you to stay up all night counting though.” Alice collected the money and presented it to Andy with a huge box of chocolates. “We’re sorry if the joke went too far. Here’s your twenty-dollars making the account accurate again. This box of chocolates is from our own money as a gift to you. To thank you for being a wonderful boss.” “Thank you, Andy!” Everyone chorused. Andy took the money and chocolates with teary eyes. Looking around at his team he shook his head. “I should still fire you all on the spot.” He broke into a broad smile, “However, that was a damn good joke and a very nice gesture. Happy April Fools’ Day everyone!” The End

This week we include the first instalment of a new column on the topic of parenting - ‘Being That Parent’ - by local mum JULIANA CLUNES ...

‘Being That Parent’ - and where it all began... By Juliana Clunes An introduction of some sort ... Hi, I’m Juliana, mother of three crazy, intense kids! I am also known around the ridges at various schools and sporting clubs as ‘THAT PARENT’. So I thought I would step back in time - way, way back in time - to where I can pinpoint where it all began ... I first had a little inkling that I could become “that parent” when I coached a school netball team out in Western Queensland in my first couple of years of teaching. I was young, single and full of energy! Parenthood was a LONG way off and something that I never thought about. It was a small school with only 45 students in total however, the grade 4-7 girls, despite never playing netball before, really took to our training sessions. (This was when year 7s were still in primary school). We practiced every lunch hour - drills, fitness and game play! The competition was to be held over three consecutive Fridays and comprised of several other schools in the district! The first day of competition meant being at school at 7am as we had to travel over an hour just to get to the comp! Our team blitzed it! We smashed every other team in our grade - it was B grade, as that is where I had entered them due to the fact that these kids had never played a game before! We had the best time! There is nothing like winning convincingly! The only problem with that is we did too well! We were promptly regraded to the A level for the final 2 days of competition. This is where “that parent” started to emerge! I was yelling on the sidelines, getting frustrated at umpire calls going against “my kids” as they were still a bit fuzzy on the rules - and having the rules handed down so strictly! We could get away with a bit of stepping in the lower grade. I was quite upset that all of a sudden my kids were up against teams that played in regular netball competitions. It was tough, we really needed a between grade. I just wanted to protect these kids from being completely slaughtered! But there was nothing I could do - I was powerless, we had to accept that we were going to lose and lose badly! We were too strong to go back to B grade, so A grade is where we remained. My beautiful teacher-aide pulled me aside and had a quiet word about staying calm and positive! Seriously, every parent needs a teacher-aide in their house to keep life smooth and in perspective! So I had to put on

Sometimes it’s hard to hold back “from the sideline’’... a super brave face and not sulk on those bus rides back to our school. We learnt a lot, both myself and the kids, and at the end of the day we got a great experience, we got to travel away from our little country school and experience bigger things that weren’t available in our area. One of the

other things that emerged from that year was the appearance of my need to protect, encourage and fight for my kids no matter what! It was also a great way to try and learn to keep those emotions positive as I still needed to be a professional teacher and role-model to my students.

If I’m honest though, that is something that I do struggle with as a parent - when to fight, when to hold back??? I don’t actually have the answers to that, I am still learning! I’ve lost count how many teachers and coaches I have irritated over the years whilst trying to stand up for my kids. Thursday, 22 April, 2021 TODAY 27

HISTORY WarwickStanthorpeToday.com.au

Local historian ROBERT MACMAURICE has a look at the The Pikedale (Amiens), Cottonvale, Stanthorpe Soldier Settlement, where the towns carry the names of famous World War I battlefields.

Where soldiers settled Soldier Settlements were seen as one of many ways to repatriate soldiers back from service in World War I. The Pikedale (Amiens), Stanthorpe and Cottonvale Soldier Settlement (one of many established around Australia) became the vision of a future life for 501 returned man and their families. They brought with them the names of the battles they had participated in, Amiens, Bapaume, Messines, Bullecourt, Passchendaele, Pozieres, Fleurbaix, and these became the names, of villages, railway sidings and areas, that still exist today. Their legacies are manifold. In May 1917, Mr Hunter the Minister for Lands, announced that 17,000 acres of land had been reserved at “The 13 Mile” on Pikedale, about 15 kilometres from Stanthorpe. Surveys were made of 138 portions comprising 4368 acres consisting of blocks ranging from 18 to 76 acres. It was decided that the blocks were suitable for fruit growing, and ringbarking was commenced, of five acre areas, on each block preparatory to clearing. Clearing commenced in August 1917 and 20 acres was also set aside as a nursery and State Farm, for training the soldiers. By the end of 1918, A. P. Devereux, an exsoldier had been appointed manager of the settlement, a sawmill had been established, 4000 apple and peach trees had been planted, five acres set aside for a school, and preparations were being made for the building of the school and recreation hall, and 19 returned soldiers were already camped, or housed at The 13 Mile. In order to take up their allotments the soldiers were each given an advance of 500 pounds (this was later increased to 625 pounds - this sum was equivalent to about two and a half years pay, for an average worker), at an interest rate of three and a half per cent payable over a 40 year period. This advance was intended to allow the men to purchase their land, equipment, and necessary materials in order to make a beginning. Soldiers had to apply to the Land Settlement Committee, to be considered for the available blocks of land, had to be honourably discharged, and to have an aptitude for farming. By early 1919 Miss Bertha Smith had 13 children attending what was to become Amiens State School and plans were being made to construct a tramway, with a 3 foot 6 inch wide gauge (about a metre) from Cottonvale a distance of 13 miles (approximately 20 kilometres). At this stage 46 soldiers, with families, in many cases had been settled and most were living in bark huts, including Miss Smith. The tramway construction from Cotton Vale to Amiens began in June 1919, with some of the tramline coming from used line in suburban Brisbane. It was completed in September 1919, with 120 men involved in the building, and cost 35,000 pounds. Other initiatives that had commenced the middle of 1920, included, the Pikedale Soldier’s Settlement Co-operative Canning, Jam, and Preserving Company. The visit by the Prince of Wales in July of that year was also a major event, by which stage about 400 returned men were involved with the settlement. Lode tin, a little gold, silver, wolfram and other minerals were discovered at Swiper’s Gully in 1920 and many ex-soldiers went mining while waiting for fruit trees to grow. Many fruit trees needed at least five years to mature. Progress at the settlement was rapid, as can be demonstrated by the fact that 193 buildings had been erected by the end of 1920, a cannery established, churches, cold rooms, 1666 acres of land had been cleared and ploughed, 110,000 fruit trees planted and blocks allotted to 354 applicants, and two full time nurses were employed in the Settlement. 143 ex-soldiers were actually settled by then. With so much activity and so many people involved it was inevitable that problems would arise and they did. By 1922 the following were being reported. 1. It took about five years for the orchards to become profitable. 28 TODAY Thursday, 22 April, 2021

District towns and locations are named after famous World War I battlefields. 2. Frosts and hail effected the establishment of orchards. 3. The 625 pound loan advanced was considered insufficient, by many settlers. 4. After all the development work the market value of the properties was less than the loans that the soldiers had undertake. They had been overcapitalised. 5. Health problems, as a result of service, of many ex-soldiers effected their ability to work. 6. Abandoned farms became overgrown and orchards untended. 7. Whereas originally five acres of cultivatable land was considered adequate, this figure was later realised to be inadequate. 8. A lot of nursery stock obtained from Tasmania was found to be diseased, and/or root bound and these problems were only noted a couple of years after planting. When the Government agreed to replacement stock, it too was found to be unsuitable. 9. Poor soil drainage and lack of water on many blocks. 10.The cost of fertiliser. 11.Interest payments on the loans were to be started immediately, yet most soldiers had no income and a number of years before crops would be profitable. 12.Uncertain markets. 13.Vermin and disease. 14.Ironically, on occasions, the Soldier Settlers produced a glut of vegetables, for the markets, and so creating low prices and unreasonable returns for their labour. 15.An unresponsive administration, who were responsible for numerous settlements all around the State. By the end of 1921, 60 soldiers had deserted their Amiens blocks. In March 1922 an auction was being organised by the State Government for the sale of equipment. Recriminations and criticism began to mount, but many Soldier Settler’s battled on. All up, at this time, there were 391 Soldier Settlers in the Stanthorpe area and in a radius of three miles of Amiens there was a population of 600 people. In 1927 only half, or about 200, of the original settlers remained on their farms. Some Settlers turned to other sources of income, besides orchards and vegetable grow-

ing. Some grew tobacco, others tried fox and possum farming for their furs. But with the arrival of the 1930s, more Settlers had left their farms, the cannery had been sold and the sawmill sold, and some corruption reported with the sale of the Soldier Settlement Store, which was valued at 9956 pounds but sold for 3550 pounds to the one and only tender, who happened to be an employee! Ironically many who had been able to “hang in” on their farms had independent sources of income such as disability pensions from the Repatriation Department. In a 1937 newspaper article it was reported

that of the 500 original Settlers, in the Stanthorpe district, only about 50 remained. In the Amiens-Bapaume area of the original 235 Settlers, 25 remained. The descendants of these families still remain in this region. Despite the overcapitalisation and numerous other problems, which led to many failures, these Soldier Settler’s demonstrated, what was possible. The families that came after them and took on the partially developed farms were able to build on that work, which has led to the reputation of this region for fruit and vegetables second to none.

Our ‘living memorials’... Planting trees as memorials for soldiers appears to be an Australian tradition. I realise there are other countries that do this, however it would appear that Australia probably has more of these than most. When I was out in Roma earlier in the year I once again admired the beautiful bottle trees lining Heroes Avenue and this caused me to look into memorial trees. These 93 trees were planted to honour the men from Roma who died in the First World War. The first tree was planted on 20th September 1918 outside the Post Office and is known locally as the Tree of Knowledge. The remaining trees were planted by 1920 and all had a brass plaque attached bearing the soldiers name. The Avenue now consists of 138 trees. Only 1 of the plaques remain today and is on a cairn outside the Post Office along with a plaque with all the names inscribed. The avenue leads to the Cenotaph that was dedicated in 1938 and today also has the names of the 39 local World War11 fatalities. Behind the cenotaph stand 9 pine trees said to have been raised from seed from the original Lone Pine of Gallipoli. Roma is to be congratulated on this lovely avenue. The first tree planted as a public memorial to the fallen was at the Rock near Lockhardt in NSW in 1911 and was dedicated to the soldiers that didn’t return from the Boer War in Africa. Eumundi followed in 1914 with a similar memorial and continued after 1917 with more trees and is the oldest memorial in

finish of what has become a wonderful living memorial as there are now many parks and plantings along the route. The latest is a planting of 45,000 native trees and shrubs known as the Australian Defence Force Memorial Plantation along 15.5 kilometres of the highway. his is marked with a stone memorial wall at each end. Other notable plantings are in Kings Park in Perth, WA. The first Honour Avenue there was dedicated on the 5th anniversary of the commencement of World War 1 with a planting of 404 trees. These trees were planted in unison after a single gunshot rang out on the 3rd August 1919. They were oak and plane trees with the oaks having been raised from acorns supplied by Queen Mary in 1914 from trees in the grounds of Windsor Castle. It is recorded that “despite wet and windy conditions almost 2,000 people including government ministers attended this State and public dedication”. When these trees failed to prosper they were replaced with eucalyptus trees in the 1940’s. Today there is only 1 of the original oaks remaining. However there are now 3 Honour Avenues within the park dedicated to 1,800 Western Australians who died in the 2 World Wars and other conflicts. Each tree bears a commemorative plaque at its base. Many towns have unrecognised memorial trees and avenues. I have only just now, after having lived in the Tamworth area for a long time, found that there is an extensive avenue located there.

now heritage listed is in Beerburrum. It was planted in 1920 in the then Beerburrum Soldier Settlement and the road renamed Anzac Avenue. This was the first land, 53,00 acres, chosen as soldier settlement in Queensland. Mrs Tilly Thompson in Ballarat commenced a fund raiser to plant a memorial avenue and between 1917 and 1918, 3,801 trees were planted, 1 for each person who went to war from the area. The 450 mostly women workers at the Lucas and Co clothing factory made dolls from the cloth scraps and sold them to raise funds. This avenue, at 22klms, remains the longest in the world. In a report in 2006 there were 567 avenues or trees listed Australia wide with the greatest number being in Victoria and 57 in Queensland. Since that report there has been a renewed interest in plantings along the Remembrance Driveway that follows the highway from Sydney to Canberra and has many rest stops along the way dedicated to the recipients of the Victoria Cross. At each of these there is a citation recording the deeds of these valiant men. The Remembrance Driveway was an initiative of the founding president of the Garden Clubs of Australia, Mrs. Margaret Davis, who suggested it as the clubs first project. The first trees were planted in 1954 by the Queen and Prince Philip who each planted a plane tree in Macquarie Place in Sydney and the Queen planted a snow gum at the War Memorial in Canberra. These trees marked the start and

The Spin Good week to be a fan... Queensland cricket fans have plenty to be happy about after the Bulls outstanding win in the final of the Sheffield Shield. It was a crushing win by Bulls – an innings and 33-run win against a top-class Blue’s unit. Marnus Labuschagne (Lamb Shank) was simply outstanding stamping himself as perhaps the best with the bat in Australia. Mitch Swepson did his representative chances no harm with an eye-catching performance with the ball against the star-studded NSW batting line up. As the Bulls celebrations drew to a close earlier in the week came news of the proposed refurb of the Gabba. It could not have been a more-timely announcement. The Gabba is one of the great cricket grounds in the world and to see a bucket of money thrown at it will ensure it remains a flea in the ear of visiting teams for many years to come. Not only will the Bulls and Australian cricketers be celebrating the news, so too the Brisbane Lions and the AFL where the love affair with Queensland continues following the 2020 season. The Lions had plenty of reasons of their own to be celebrating following the historic win of the women’s team over the Adelaide Crows in the AFLW grand final. It was third time lucky for the Lions and a fitting way for retiring Brisbane Lions captain Emma Zielke, who has been one of trail blazers of the sport to end her career. Not a bad week to be a Queenslander. I’m off to renew my Gabba membership. - Casey

ARMBRUSTER COMING UNDER NOTICE Stanthorpe swimmer Ben Armbruster is now with the USC Spartans squad and had some eye-catching results at the 2021 National Swimming Championships at the weekend at the Gold Coast Aquatic Centre. Armbruster came away from the meet with two gold medals, one silver and a bronze medal from the five finals events he swam. More importantly he swam personal bests in the final of the 50metre Butterfly and 50 metre freestyle events. In the Butterfly, he lowered his PB (set in the heats) by 00.23 and in the Freestyle his time of 22.98 was a 0.02 improvement. In a sport of millimetres and hundredths of second these are significant gains. The under 18/19 Butterfly event was the fourth fastest of the meet. His times in the 50m backstroke also bring him under notice. Not bad for a kid who kicked-off his swimming career in Stanthorpe where the pool is closed for half of the year. (Watch next week’s edition for more on Ben’s progress through the swimming ranks.)

DISTRICT BOWLERS AT SUMMIT Members of the Southern Downs Men’s District teams met at the Summit Bowls club on Saturday for some practice play prior to the State District Championships. Conditions were a little damp, but it did not deter the bowlers from Goondiwindi, Inglewood, Tenterfield, Warwick East, Tannymorel, and The Summit who are members of the Southern Downs team. The practice session gave bowlers the chance to get to know each other and their games better and for the teams to gel prior to the State District championships. The State District Championships is the marquee event on Queensland’s bowling calendar. Districts will go head-to-head in separate men’s and women’s competitions at various venues across Brisbane.

STUART NOTCHES UP ANOTHER Lisa Stuart continued her run of wins playing excellent golf to win the RSL midweek individual Stableford at Stanthorpe Golf Course this past week. A small but enthusiastic group of seven la-

dies headed out for the event and although the scores were on the low side everyone came in happy following their efforts. Stuart again won with a score of 32 points with Mei Bell and Lorraine Evans, runners up with 28 points. Featuring in the run downs Annelle Batterham and Linda Kelly were in the rundown with 26 points. The Ladies play in the Stanthorpe RSL midweek competition on Wednesdays.

NIGHT BOWLS TO HIT PAUSE FOR WINTER Night bowls will wrap up this evening taking a break during the winter months but will make a return in the Spring. However tonight there could be something special planned so players are asked to contact the club to book a spot. Play starts at 6.30 pm. The past week’s winners were Peter, Margaret, and Lynn with runners up and hoping to go one better in the final round tonight Ralph, Braydon, and Georgie. Play starts at 6.30 pm tonight. The rain on Saturday was enough to cause the cancellation of the scheduled mixed bowls. The semi-final of the A grade singles between Gordon Assay and David Weir was also postponed until this Saturday. Mixed social bowls has again been scheduled for Saturday afternoon and this weekend with a kinder weather forecast it looks unlikely there will be any interruptions. Play begins at 1 pm, and names must be submitted between noon and 12.30. Prizes and a chance to try for the jackpot will be on again. The final of the A grade singles will take place on Saturday 8 May. It is also the closing date for nominations for self-selected pairs competition. A reminder that there is a signup sheet at the clubhouse for anyone interested in purchasing a spray jacket in the club colours. The anticipated cost is around $50.

EARLY GROUPS AVOID THE SHOWERS Rain was predicted for Stanthorpe Saturday and when it arrived in the afternoon and had a telling effect on the results of the individual

stableford event. Those who chose to play in the morning had by far the better of the conditions with an overcast but dry morning while the afternoon players endured some heavy showers. Of course, there were no complaints as everyone is happy to receive every drop of rain. Most of the ladies played the afternoon session and found the rain a bit too much to continue. they called stumps after nine holes and decided to hold the trophies back for a future day, possibly on a Wednesday. Only one player managed to complete the 18 holes and that was Margie Locke who becomes the go to person for predications on weather events. The men who played the early morning session also had the best of the day with all players completing the round. 36 points seemed to being a popular score among the morning brigade and the countback came into play to find a winner. David Burgess had the best in this and was declared the winner of the day. In doing so he suppressed arguments from any other family members as to who is still best golfer in the family. Jason Hatton put together a good round to return a one over par 73 for his round. Playing off a handicap of one, this also gave him 36 points and he claimed the runner up. All other players with scores of 36 received a ball in the run down. They were Matt Burgess, Chris Binge and Greg Fraser p played the back nine in the rain was the only afternoon who managed to feature on the highlights reel. A reminder that the first weekend in May is the big weekend in Stanthorpe. The weekend kicks off with a Medley 4BBB stableford on Saturday sponsored which is sponsored by Biz and Jeff Ihle. This will be followed by the followed a Three ball Ambrose sponsored by Black Toyota of Warwick, (special thanks to Robert Reeves for arranging this sponsorship). Time sheets for both events are on the notice board at the club and as expected spots are filling fast. Be sure to get your name in quickly to avoid disappointment. Meanwhile this Saturday is the end of month Medley 4BBB Stableford sponsored by the Stanthorpe RSL Sub-branch. The time sheet of this event is also should register by 11.30 am to give the starter ample time to allocate starting tee positions.

GOOD NEWS FOR SOME JUST NOT BOWLERS The follow -up rain received in Stanthorpe on the weekend was good news for famers but did little for lawn bowers with Saturday social bowling at the Stanthorpe Bowls Club cancelled. Those playing mid-week were more fortunate. Conditions were perfect for the final of the Women’s A grade singles. In an entertaining game, played in the right spirit Wendy Hurnall came home strongly to retain the title from Helen Jones. The final score 26-11. Thanks to David Rose who marked this match. In addition to the final, there was a good roll up for Social bowls on Wednesday. Two games of three bowl triples and one game of pairs were played. Cec Russell, Peter Smith, and Bruno Stefanon came from behind to defeat Tom Hodgson, Gordon Gallaway and Gary Trevena 20-14. Dot Rankin Luisa Girgenti and Mark Wicks just outpointed Robin Smith Ernie Jones and Helen Jones in a close game. The final score 16-14. The pairs game developed into an interesting match. Frank Gallo and Wendy Hurnall got the chocolates scoring a 20-14 win over Ray Rankin and Brian Brown. Val White and Hans Westerhout, who have been in sick bay are apparently on the mend and bowlers are looking forward to seeing them back on the green in the near future.

RAIN LEAVES TESTING CONDITIONS Stanthorpe Sporters woke to clear skies and perfect autumn conditions after showers hampered golfers on Saturday. While the weather was perfect, and the course looked pristine the big test for Sporters playing the back nine last Sunday was how well they could hit with very little run on following the rain. Added to this, the damp greens posed a problem - how hard to hit the ball to get it the hole. It mattered naught to Paul Armstrong who had a good round going until he hit a bump at holes six and seven where he recorded bogies. He set up a good score with results with pars on all other holes to finish the day with the best Gross score of 39 for the round. As well as best gross score, Paul also collected in the run down with a nett 27. Aaron Simmers returned the Best nett round (26 to claim the winning prize. His score could have been even a little better if not for a couple of frustrating putts that grazed the hole and refused to drop. Simmers win came only after a cut of the cards, with Margie Locke also returning nett 26. Aces apparently are better than 10’s and Margie settled for runner up on the day. Dick Hilton played his normally steady round which resulted in the second run down with nett 28 score. Gary Kirby was half expecting the packet of chips. A couple of eight’s and quite a few double bogies ensured he was not disappointed. Please note that next Sunday there is a change of Tee time for Sporters due to Anzac Day. Sporters will tee off at the later time of 1. 00pm.There is an open invitation to anyone who might like a nine-hole stroll in the afternoon after Anzac Day celebrations are over and you can even bring your golf clubs and have a hit if you wish.

MYRTLES GIRLS HEAT UP THE TURKEY Bowlers from across the Southern Downs

Cowboy’s winger Jake Speed shows the opposition a clean set of heels and flies high to score one of his four-try haul against the Bears on Sunday.

The winning Warwick team celebrate their Shell Cup win – the team was made up of Cameron Shepherd, Tom Cobon, Anthony Wells, Warwick Fraser, Stuart Shepherd and Matt Gleeson. Picture: JEREMY SOLLARS headed to the greens at the Southern Cross Bowls Club last week searching for that mysterious “Turkey” in the Turkey Triples Competition. In big field of 36, it was Myrtles Girls, (Margaret Thompson, Myrtle Wagner, and Jean Calam turned up the heat and secured a win. Not even all the inside knowledge on the greens was enough to give Barry Ziebell, Les Clark and Kim Hankinson the edge over the Myrtle’s Girls. The locals forced to settle for the runner’s up spot. The lucky raffle winners were Sharon, Clark, Cocky and Linda and her twin sister, Linda. Saturday, the Club Mixed Triples Competition got underway with the first round of players available, completing their games before rain chased everyone off the green. Conditions were more favourable on Sunday and the club was well represented at the Killarney Open Fours Carnival. Clark Davidson, Dave Scotney, Marion Skaines and Geoff Davis each came home $100 richer leaving Killarney with some foreign capital after taking an outright win in the event. They were on fire even scoring the maximum eight on one end. Congratulations to the team at Killarney for a very well organised day. Today, (Thursday, 22 April) the club is holding a Social Mixed Bowls afternoon beginning at 1pm. Everyone including beginners are welcome. Please direct inquiries to Daph (PH: 0400 979 930) or Geoff (PH: 0407 032 001). The Club Mixed Triples continue this Saturday, 24 April starting at 10am. For queries, please contact the Games Director, Clark (Ph: 0427 673 277). There will also be Social Mixed Bowls on Saturday afternoon beginning at 1pm and everyone is welcome. For barefoot bowls, social and competition bowls, functions, and bar, you will find it difficult to go past the Southern Cross Bowls Club Inc. opposite St Mary’s Church, Warwick. Follow the club on Facebook or contact the Secretary, Cheryl Ph: 0407 641 158.

ORIENTEERS OUT IN FORCE ON MONDAY Grazing land at Marylands, east of Stanthorpe, is the venue for the Bullecourt Boulder Bounders Club’s upcoming bush event on Monday, 26 April. Organizers are expecting Orienteers from the local club, the Bullecourt Boulder Bounders as well as members of the Toowoomba Range Runners Club to be out in force on this excellent course. Speaking about the Maryland location, publicity officer for the Bullecourt Bounders, Ms Liz Bourne said, “This property was first mapped and used for orienteering in 2000 and has been used regularly by the club ever since. “It is a good combination of open paddocks suitable for beginners as well as more detailed granite terrain for the harder and more technical courses.” Seven courses will be offered during Monday’s event with something suitable for all skill and fitness levels.” Ms Bourne went on to say that anyone is welcome to come go along and try the sport as Orienteering is open to everyone, not just members. She also pointed out that, “Instruction on the basic map reading and navigational skills will be available for those new to the sport.” The event will be open from 9am - 11am and will be signposted along Dalmoak Road Maryland. The entry cost is $5 and families are welcome to go around a course together. Further information is available by contact-

JOHNSON’S FORM CONTINUES Di Johnston has been in good form with the club in hand recently and last Wednesday (April 14) scored an impressive win in the Single Stableford comepitition. She finished the round with a great score of 36 points. Four ladies from the City Golf Club were made very welcome as they joined the playing field and Jenny Englebright from City Golf Club finished just one point shy of the winner (35) securing the runner’s up position. Balls in the run down went to Ros Darton and Mary Young (32); Lyn McKillop and Tub Ingall (31), Anna Cox and Debby Routh (City) (30). There were a few birdies out on the course during the round. Marg Adcock at the third, Trish Bell, the fifth, Jenny Englebright eleventh, Ros Darton thirteenth and Anna Cox on the sixteenth. Special thanks to the Coffee Club for their generous sponsorship of the day. Saturday (17 April) turned out to be a far better day for ducks than golfers but Tub gall showed good wet weather form to take home the Red Rooster Voucher after finishing with 36 points for the 18-hole single stableford event. Di Evans was again close to the money. She was runner up in the event with 33 points. Rundown balls went to Vicki Bennett (31), Anne Lyons (29) and Ros Darton and Gwen Mills (28). The Pro Pin was in play for the first time this year. Congratulations to Di Evans who one two balls and Judy Lester one ball on the seventh.

BUSY FEW WEEKS Warwick Sporters Golf have had an interesting month. Back on St Patrick’s Day (17 March for the uninitiated) 19 qualifiers and three referees kicked off the 2021 Sporters shoot-out with a shirt presentation thanks to generous sponsor, Danny Lyons (also one of the qualifiers). Everyone may have looked pretty smick, but the skies above held looked ominous. The rain held off until the group teed off and then began and got progressively. Many interesting issues arose in the first nine holes. Some that spring to mind include - Milo cannot putt from the fringe; Pearso did not want to cross the road on the second; Unlucky Garry proved that he also cannot putt from off the green on four. Keith Clarke left early on seventh. By the lunch break our man on the inside reported he was contemplating a quick trip home to nail down the dog as the wind grew progressively stronger. As is often the way in these situations there were also some lucky performances, from the eventual placegetters. Charlie proved he needed two chips to clear a bunker on 11 and should have been gone there. Two Names and Charlie narrowly survived a chip-off on the 13th, and there was a great performance by Gary Hansen the only C grader in the field to get to the harder back holes. The group lost Charlie on 17 but not before he secured third place. Two Names and Tony battled hard up 18 and ended up in a chip off won by Garry Two Names. He also ended up with the lion’s share of the Calcutta money. A very wet and bedraggled field of qualifiers and spectators were grateful to retire to the clubhouse for the presentations. Special thanks to referees Sprag, Robin Farrell and Don Warrener for their efforts in trying conditions. Normal competition was interrupted that same day due to Huey’s weather display. Huey took matters into his own hands the following week drowning not only the course but the whole town and most of the district. As a result, the course closed on March 24 and the annual Crime Stoppers Charity day was postponed. With Huey under control on 31 March, Sporters sponsored the annual Rose Bowl and Shield matches, with the ladies from WWG competing for the Rose Bowl and the Men for the Shield. The winner of the Rose Bowl Jill Barnes received her trophy from Sporters President Keith Farrell.

Casey O’Connor

The outcome of the Men’s competition drew plenty of interest when it was initially reported that the winner with 83 Stableford points was Phil the Coach ahead of runner-up Craig Burgess with 81 stableford points. The winner with a score of 33 points after a count back was Wayne Watt and Eddie Raets relegated to runner up. Bad luck Coach. April 7 would have been the monthly trophy event sponsored by Sam Eaves Pro shop. This is normally a stoke event but went ahead as a stableford event. Some changes are afoot so stay tuned for more on this front. The winner was Mark Paroz on a count back from Greg Wallace after both returned 34 points. Last week Sporters played for the Hawker Road Function trophy and a good field of 64 hit the course. The winner, showing a distinct mechanical advantage, was Clive Pulley with 37 points from runner-up and very average bunker chipper-over Charlie Morrison (36). Following the recent drought relieving rain the course is playing very long. Staying on the fairways is a must with the rough jumping out of the ground. Recent Sporters scores have not had a winning stableford result over mid – high thirties. Sporters members were sad to learn that the club’s long serving greenkeeper Craig Cox has resigned. After 23-years of service to the Warwick Golf Club Craig and Zoe are an integral cog in the Warwick Golf Club family and will be sorely missed. Craig has accepted an offer to move to a supervisory position with a turf management company. He leaves the Warwick Golf Club knowing that after years of battling drought the course is in the best condition seen been for years. Sporters will be kept advised of information regarding a send-off.

BIG CROWD AT FR RANGER OVAL The Warwick Cowboys first home games of the season drew a big crowd to Fr Ranger Oval. Conditions were perfect for the three games against the Oakey Bears. The afternoon of rugby league got underway with the Under 18 game. After suffering a heartbreaking loss to Valleys right on the fulltime siren in round one the Cowboy’s looked keen to make amends from the whistle. After leading 16-10 at halftime the Cowboys proved too strong in the second half to a 32-22 win. The Cowboy’s scored six tries to Oakey’s four. Jayden Tucker kicked four from six. While the score line indicates a dominant win, the Cowboys were made to work for their two points. Kaleb Ammenhauser was judged Best forward for the Cowboys and Angus Ridley Best back after strong performances. Warwick Under 18’s 32 (Tries: Brock Patti (2); Isaac Jones; Jake McMeniman; Dean Mauch Kaleb Ammenhauser. Goals: - Jayden Tucker 4) Def Oakey Bears 22.

DARKEST LEGAL TINT

The final of the 2021 Shell Cup, a local derby between the Warwick and Cunnigham teams was an action packed game.

Cowboys fullback Mitch Watson fends off Bears Noel Bartman. Watson had a great game at fullback and was named Best Back.

Winners of the 2021 Shell cup Warwick receive their trophy.

RESERVE GRADE TWO FROM TWO

None more spectacular than his last two in the final stages of the games. In the end it was a comprehensive win. At no stage did the Cowboy’s take a backward step and neither did they take the foot off the accelerator. The win wrapped up a clean sweep for the three Cowboys teams. Warwick 56 (Jake Speed 4, Mitch Watson 2, Tyrelle Ross 2, Joe Fuimano, Dylan Galloway, Jayden Best tries Mitch Watson 6 goals) defeated Oakey 12 (Nick Ferris, Aaron Hooper tries Nick Ferris 2 goals) Webcke Price Points 3 Mitch Watson 2 Josh Stanton, 1 Jack Speed

The Cowboy’s Reserve Grade dominated the Bears on Sunday and the start to season 2021 could not be better. They are two from two and although it is only early days, they look to have a strong outfit this season. The Cowboys rolled over the Bears defence and tries flowed. At half time the home side led 22-6 and they ran away in the second half for a big win. Dann Conn was named Best Forward following the game and dual try scorer Liam Dempsey was named Best Back. Warwick Reserve Grade 50 (Tries: Brodie Quirk 3; Carlos Smith 2; Liam O’Dempsey 2; Evan Sambrooks; Dustin Close; one scorer unknown. Goals: - Brad Morrissh 3; Morgan Taylor 2) def Oakey Bears 10 (Tries Ashley Hooper 2, Goals Dylan Crump.)

COWBOYS BOUNCE BACK TO WINNING FORM After a wakeup call in Round One of the TRL Hutchinson Cup the Warwick Cowboys A Grade side bounced back to open their 2021 account with big win over the Oakey Bears at Fr Ranger Oval on Sunday. In front of a big crowd the Cowboys played with more purpose and looked like they had blown off the rust at training during the week. Although they were without captain Mick Bloomfield who is sidelined after copping a two-game suspension against Valleys, the Cowboys combinations looked slicker, and they defended with real purpose for the whole 80 minutes. Coach Matt Grew would also have been pleased with their much-improved completion rate. The Cowboys did not have everything their own way in the early stages of the game as the Bears looked competitive when Nicholas Ferris scored and converted for the Bears (score 18-6). Joe Fuiamo and Dylan Galloway provided plenty of headaches for the Bears in the first half. Fuiamo finding the line for the Cowboys first half and Galloway was strong scoring the second of the Cowboy’s tries in the first half. At the halftime break the Cowboys were up 24-6 after more tries to Jayden Best; Jake Speed (2) and Tyrelle Ross. Mitch Wilson played a big role at half back and had a big day with the boot slotting six conversions. The Cowboy’s Mitch Watson looked dangerous at fullback and was in the thick of attack and defence throughout the game. Second rower Jarred Tuite had a big game and earned the award for the Best Forward at the end of the game. The star of the show however was Jake Speed who lived up to his name. On the back of some excellent backline moves Speed notched up four great tries for the afternoon.

POLOCROSSE IS BACK The Stanthorpe Polocrosse Association kicked plenty of goals on the weekend hosting the first Post Covid Polocrosse carnival. After many hours of hard work and probably more than a few sleepless nights organisers should be proud of the results. A big interstate contingent made the trip to Warwick to play in the Interstate Barastoc Series. In the Open Men’s the Qld NSW rivalry was on show for all to see with bragging rights going to the NSW team. The Best Rider Jim Grills from the NSW team. Will Watson’s horse Wilver Hills Weston getting the nod as Best Horse. Queensland reversed the result in the final of the Open Women securing a win. Rider Beth Hafey named the Best Rider. The honour of the Best horse going to Sandra Weston’s Nimby Lara. In the Under 21 finals the NSW Men had a win and in a similar result to the Open the Queensland ladies took the honours. The Master’s event went the way of NSW. Both the boys and girls Under 16 finals went the way of the Queensland teams. All eyes were on the final of the Shell Cup on Sunday as rival clubs went head-to-head. The Warwick Polocrosse team defeating Cunningham to win the title. Warwick rider Stewart Shepherd and his mount were named Best horse and rider. Polocrosse another sport that is definitely back after its Covid hiatus.
