Fixing the Gap $200 million repair works at a renowned danger zone north-east of Warwick have progressed to the design stage after years of crashes, fallen rocks, and slippage. Federal member for Maranoa David Littleproud last week announced that local residents and road users were one step closer to a safer and more reliable Cunningham’s Gap, with the project design recently awarded to engineering and design company ARUP. “Cunningham’s Gap has long caused concerns for Maranoa residents and road users as a notorious bottleneck and high crash zone,” Mr Littleproud said.

Running amok Warwick Magistrates Court on Monday 14 June. It is alleged Cubby’s string of offences began just before 11pm on Friday 11 June, when a 55-year-old woman discovered him stealing her white Triton ute from a Canning Street home in Warwick. Hours later, at 7am, Cubby was allegedly

found in the laundry of an Albert Street house by a 66-year-old woman. Police will allege the 19-year-old then attempted to break into a Bell Place home, but fled on foot after being disturbed by an 85-year-old woman. Story on page 4

It seems, to me, that our region has become much more interested in the Emu Swamp Dam project as of late. Both of our letters to the editor this week referred to Southern Downs Regional Council’s participation in the project, and the topic has come up frequently in general conversation. I am consistently hearing that people are concerned with the project and with the council’s decision to buy into the scheme. I am also consistently hearing that people feel as though they do not understand all of the conversation that currently surrounds the project. We have known since SDRC committed, in principle, to become a customer of the scheme in December 2020 that this would be a slow process. In fact, I have been told that the project has been in the works since 2002. The council continues to reiterate that there are many complex issues that have to be resolved before the council can bring decisions to council meetings, and that decisions will be brought in stages. While I understand there are processes that must be followed, bringing decisions back to council bit by bit only makes the project more difficult for the public to follow. I have heard it be suggested that the council host an information session for all interested in the project to ask SDRC and the project proponent Granite Belt Water about the project. Previously, the council has said it had too few details to answer the public’s Emu Swamp Dam questions. But surely now, six months after agreeing to become a customer of the project, it should know enough to be able to answer the questions of the people who will be paying for the council’s participation. And if it doesn’t – perhaps it shouldn’t be participating at all? I’d like to hear your thoughts on how you might feel more secure in the council’s decision to buy into the scheme. Do you care? Do you not? Let me know!

St Joseph’s School is gearing up to take you on a captivating journey with their upcoming production, ‘Matilda, the Musical’ which is based on the 1988 children’s novel by Roald Dahl. Matilda is a talented and intelligent fiveyear-old girl who loves reading and overcoming obstacles caused by her family and her school and helps her teacher to reclaim her life. Matilda has astonishing wit and psychokinetic powers. She is unloved by her cruel parents but impresses her schoolteacher, the highly lovable Miss Honey. Matilda and Miss Honey create a bond with Miss Honey appreciating Matilda’s extraordinary personality. Matilda’s school life is not great with the mean headmistress, Miss Trunchbull who

hates children and enjoys thinking up new punishments for those who do not obey her rules. But Matilda displays courage and cleverness and could be the saving grace for all the students. St Joseph’s students have begun rehearsing during their morning tea and lunch breaks, on weekends and after school to capture the magic and essence of this wonderful musical. “I am very impressed by the talent of the cast, who are enthusiastic and doing a great job so far. Their conduct and discipline are a credit to themselves, their school and their parents,” musical director Mrs Pauline Leigh said. ‘Matilda, the Musical’ will be held on Friday 27 and Saturday 28 August. Claim the date and join the cast who will take you on a journey of an inspiring girl who dreams of a better life.

Gap repair works progress By Jess Baker $200 million repair works at a renowned danger zone north-east of Warwick have progressed to the design stage after years of crashes, fallen rocks, and slippage. Federal member for Maranoa David Littleproud last week announced that local residents and road users were one step closer to a safer and more reliable Cunningham’s Gap, with the project design recently awarded to engineering and design company ARUP. “Cunningham’s Gap has long caused concerns for Maranoa residents and road users as a notorious bottleneck and high crash zone,” Mr Littleproud said. “This was only made worse when bushfires swept through the area in 2019, damaging vegetation and increasing the risk of rock falls. “Repairs to the route are long overdue with traffic still forced to use a single southbound lane and road users regularly experiencing delays due to very slow heavy vehicle traffic.” Mr Littleproud said that a fix was finally in sight, with a detailed design of the repair works expected to be completed by September 2021. “Construction on this project can’t come quick enough. This is a major freight route between Brisbane and Sydney, and our regions west of the Great Dividing Range can ill-afford the ongoing bottlenecks to continue,” he said. “This milestone means we are one step closer to a safer and more reliable Cunningham’s Gap.” Southern Downs Mayor Vic Pennisi said that while the council appreciates the federal and state governments’ decision to repair damage at the Gap, it will continue to advocate for “permanent long-term connectivity solutions for the Southern Downs”. “Cunningham’s Gap is a bottleneck that continues to inhibit the easy connectivity to our region via road,” Cr Pennisi said. “It is the entrance to our region from Brisbane and is where most of our goods and services enter and exit the region.” Cr Pennisi said that the bottleneck has, for many years, inhibited the Southern Downs’

ability to reach its full potential. “SDRC has identified this as a major longterm project and consequently we will continue to advocate for better solutions to this vital transport corridor,” he said. “With today’s ability to access innovative technologies, options such as a tunnel could be a viable (solution) and one that has been the focus of conversations for many years.” The project is jointly funded by the Australian and Queensland governments under the Disaster Recovery Funding Arrangements program, and aims to repair slope damage caused by bushfires at the Gap. Southern Downs residents would remember the significant impact that the closure of the Gap during the 2019 bushfires had on the community, with significantly reduced visitor numbers to the region. Cr Pennisi said the closure highlighted the need for a more permanent solution to the highway through the Gap which remains today in a “volatile condition”. “(The) council welcomes the news that design works will be undertaken for repairs and will continue to advocate for the identified works to be funded and constructed,” he said. The federal government is expected to fund up to 75 percent of the repair project, and the state government 25 percent. At this stage, construction is on track to commence in January 2022.

Bushfires and rainfall in January 2020 caused rocks to fall and the Cunningham Highway to close on many occasions. Picture: FILE

Funding flows in: $1m upgrades for Warwick roads By Jess Baker A dozen roads in the Warwick region will receive nearly $1 million worth of upgrades under the Australian government’s 2021-22 Black Spot Program. Federal Member for Maranoa David Littleproud said community input was critical in identifying key black spots in the electorate. “Road crashes place major emotional and economic strains on all affected communities but particularly the families and friends of the victims,” Mr Littleproud said. “I am pleased to see 16 high-priority projects on the Southern Downs will be delivered

under the 2021-22 funding round.” Under the latest funding round, $958,500 will be invested in 12 Black Spot projects across Warwick, Rosenthal Heights, Allora, Clintonvale, Deuchar, and Leslie Dam. The federal government will contribute $115,000 to upgrading Palmerin Street and Alice Street in Warwick and $172,000 to reducing the speed limit along Guy Street to 40 kilometres per hour and installing seven raised pedestrian crossings at two locations along the road. The three kilometre section of Washpool Road from Glenvale Road at Leslie Dam will also receive $170,000 to reduce the speed limit to 80 or 90 kilometres per hour, clear

Three projects at Stanthorpe and one at Greenlands will also receive funding under the latest round of the Black Spot Program. A total $20.8 million will be invested in 67 Black Spot projects across Queensland under the latest program, with $1.4 million of that funding going toward 16 projects across the Southern Downs and Granite Belt.

Granted: SDRC able to sell land to dam project By Jess Baker Southern Downs Regional Council has been granted an exemption to dispose of a lot of land so that it may be inundated by a dam proposed for the Granite Belt – Emu Swamp Dam. SDRC CEO Dave Burges told Warwick and Stanthorpe Today that the council would usually have to go through an open tender process to sell an asset, but it applied for and received an exemption from the Minister for State Development, Infrastructure, Local Government and Planning Steven Miles. A letter addressed to Mr Burges from Director-General of the Department of State Development, Infrastructure, Local Government and Planning Damien Walker was tabled at the council’s 9 June ordinary meeting. It noted that Minister Miles had written to Mayor Vic Pennisi to advise of his approval for an exemption for the council from the auction and tender requirements for the disposal of the council-owned land. The lot, located at 365 Emu Swamp

Road, Nundubbermere, was granted the exemption subject to a number of conditions. Conditions included that the property is only offered to Emu Swamp Dam project proponent Granite Belt Water and for “no less than its current offer of $341,000”. The director general stated it was also non-negotiable that a report detailing the independent property valuation, the name of the purchaser, the price of the sale, the details of the land, and how the council decided that the transfer “provides value for money for the community” be tabled at a council meeting prior to the finalisation of the sale of the property. The report and supporting documents must also be made available via the council’s website. Mr Burges said the exemption by the minister to sell the block of land is an example of one of the many matters the council must ‘resolve’, take back to council, and ‘tick off’ its Emu Swamp Dam to-do list. The matter is likely to be tabled at the council’s 23 June ordinary meeting.

A Warwick teen has appeared in court charged with a spate of offences allegedly committed over a two-day spree, involving attempted armed robbery, stealing, and wounding a 75-year-old man. Eilsel Lloyd Cubby, 19, is facing more than 10 charges, including three counts of break and enter, one count each of attempted break and enter, unlawful use of a motor vehicle, attempted armed robbery, dangerous operation of a motor vehicle, unlicensed driving, stealing, trespassing, wounding, and failure to provide a specimen of breath. The 19-year-old’s matter was heard at the Warwick Magistrates Court on Monday 14 June. It is alleged Cubby’s string of offences began just before 11pm on Friday 11 June, when a 55-year-old woman discovered him stealing her white Triton ute from a Canning Street home in Warwick. Hours later, at 7am, Cubby was allegedly found in the laundry of an Albert Street house by a 66-year-old woman. Police will allege the 19-year-old then attempted to break into a Bell Place home, but fled on foot after being disturbed by an 85-year-old woman. Later that same morning, a 31-year-old woman allegedly awoke to Cubby attempting to force his way into her home by kicking in a door. It is believed she watched the man flee in a white Triton ute. The young man is also suspected to have stolen a phone and other items from an Aca-

cia Avenue home, which he later discarded at a Wantley Street property. Police will allege Cubby forced his way into a Mount Tabor Road home the next day, demanding cash from a 75-year-old resident and slashing his face with a knife before fleeing in the white ute. The 75-year-old man was taken to hospital with a non-threatening cut to his chin. Police said they eventually caught up with Cubby at Ailanthus Street in Killarney, but he allegedly sped off along Willow Street and continued to drive dangerously around the town. Following a short pursuit, police deployed spikes to halt the ute and Cubby was remanded in custody. The 19-year old did not make an application for bail and will remain in police custody until his next appearance in court on 25 August. Cubby is known to police and is currently facing a number of charges for an alleged string of offences committed in January this year. At the time, it was alleged that Cubby failed to stop at a Wallangarra border checkpoint south of Stanthorpe, committed a burglary at an East Street home in Warwick, and threatened an Albion Street resident at knife-point. The 19-year-old faces a number of charges including evasion, possession of dangerous drugs, driving without a licence, unlawful possession of controlled drugs and failure to comply with Covid-19 directions. The matter was last mentioned at the Warwick Magistrates Court on 5 May, and was adjourned to 28 July.

Be prepared this season As temperatures across the Southern Downs and Granite Belt continue to drop, residents are being urged to ensure they have proper fire safety measures in place. Minister for Fire and Emergency Services Mark Ryan said Queensland Fire and Emergency Services crews responded to more than 2600 house fires over the last five winters. “Winter is the peak season for house fires, with firefighters responding to an average of 40 incidents per week,” Mr Ryan said. “House fires move fast and can happen to anyone, in any type of home.” “Don’t be complacent and think it won’t happen to you – the reality is most fires are caused by everyday items such as cooking equipment, faulty or poorly maintained appliances, and flammable materials placed too close to heat sources.” Stanthorpe resident and rural firefighter for nearly 50 years James Massey knows the danger of fire more than most, having lost his own home to a slow combustion stove incident in 1991. “Our son got up, put wood on the fire, and closed the door,” Mr Massey said. “Everybody does washing with cold water nowadays … (and) everyone used to hang tea towels on the front of their stove.” “So what happened was, in August, there were strong westerly winds and the heat of the stove was drawing really, really well.” “The tea towel became very hot and caught on fire, dropped on the floor which was lino, and then the house burned down.” “Thank god our 20-year-old son got out of the house.” Mr Massey said he was at a friend’s place for dinner at the time with two of his other sons. He found his wedding ring in the debris one week after the fire. “That’s why having things that aren’t combustible around your house, or in your house close to fire, is really important,” he said. He said it’s crucial that people take the time to clear their gutters and any shrubbery around their homes, as the most likely way a house will catch fire – particularly under winddriven conditions – is from embers. A simple way to reduce the risk of gutter debris catching on fire and spreading to the rest of the house is to install a mesh shield like Leaf Stopper that will cover gutters and roof valleys, keeping out leaves and debris. Mr Massey also suggested that people fill their gutters with water to reduce the risk of fire embers causing damage. “If you get a long sock and put a tennis ball in it, you can just stick it in the downpipe of the gutter and you can flood your gutters with water,” he said. “And that way you will stop any embers

catching fire on anything in the gutter.” People with slow combustion stoves should also be certain they are shutting them down properly at night time, and that there are no combustible items nearby. QFES Commissioner Greg Leach said that while most Queenslanders are aware of the risks associated with house fires, research indicates that one in three families do not feel prepared for the event of them. “Creating and practising a fire escape plan takes less than five minutes and is a simple, practical way to ensure your family knows what to do in the event of a house fire,” Mr Leach said. “Young children and the elderly are the most at risk, so it’s especially important to consider how they will escape safely. For instance, young children can’t escape a burning house without you, so who is getting the baby or toddler?” “Make it a priority this winter to draw up an escape plan with multiple exits based on the location of the fire and practice it regularly with your family.” Commissioner Leach said that in addition to practicing fire escape plans, residents should install interconnected, photoelectric smoke alarms as they are the safest option available. “I also remind everyone that the next stage of Queensland’s nation-leading 2017 smoke alarm laws will commence on 1 January 2022, and apply to residential rental properties and residential property sales,” he said. The new legislation states that all domestic Queensland dwellings will be required to have interconnected photoelectric smoke alarms in all bedrooms, in hallways that connect to bedrooms, and on every level. Top risky fire behaviours New research from QBE has revealed that five in seven Australians are engaging in at least one of five top risky behaviours during the peak season for domestic fires. According to the data, the top risks for Queenslanders include: Not emptying the lint filter in tumble tryers Charging devices in bed Leaving cooking unattended Putting off cleaning kitchen dishes and letting them accumulate grease, grime and crumbs Neglecting to check heaters for safety Research shows that most Australians – 70 per cent – do not own a fire blanket or extinguisher, and about 80 per cent do not have a home fire evacuation plan.

The skeleton of the service station and office building has started to take shape.

Corner will serve again By Jess Baker Warwick’s newest service station is on track to open in the first week of September at the corner of Wood and Guy streets. The construction of a Mobil service station began in March this year, after the St Mary’s Tennis Pavilion and squash courts at the site were demolished in February. Building site foreman of contractor NRG Services Hunter Beirne said the build had progressed quickly and NRG expected that all of the service station’s fuel lines would be installed by the end of June. By the end of July, all of the concreting at the site should be completed. “The structure’s up now, we’ve just got to fill the structure,” Hunter said. Hunter said the project had plans to drill underneath Wood Street and carry the power lines currently above Wood Street underneath the street. Doing that, and bringing the traffic lights at Guy Street back approximately two metres, would supposedly make way for a wider turning lane on Guy Street.

MS 251 Wood Boss Chainsaw • 45.6cc Petrol • 2.2kw • 18” Bar • Anti-vibration system • Single leaver master control • Air filter system

The drilling underneath Wood Street has now been completed. A NRG spokesperson said workers had so far received great support from the local community, with many passers-by offering positive comments to the team on site. “Additionally, we have utilised a number of local businesses to assist in the construction of the project including F.G Loy and Sons, Go Off Concreting, Tradeline, Southern Downs Concrete, and GTL Concrete pumping,” said the spokesperson. “It’s important to us that we utilise local content as best we can and contribute back to the economy.” Southern Downs Regional Council approved a development application for the highway site submitted by owner the Diocese for the development of a 24/7 service station in May 2020. The decision was met with disapproval from some members of the community who questioned why the church would deem another service station in town necessary, and relief from others who said the former tennis pavilion and squash courts had become an ‘eyesore’.

Newest cafe at Rose City By Jess Baker Warwick’s newest dining venue has officially opened at Rose City Shoppingworld and already has the community salivating over its delicious offerings. Espresso Max Cafe opened its doors in Warwick on Tuesday 8 June, joining seven other locations across Queensland. Known for its high-quality coffee and extensive breakfast and lunch options, the cafe has quickly become a favourite spot amongst locals and visitors alike. Manager Lyly Cheng said the business is thriving so far, and appears to have filled a gap in the market. “We’re doing very well. We have a lot of lunch orders,” Lyly said. “I feel like the people here needed this cafe – something new, a change.” With venues already in Toowoomba, Chermside, Lutwyche, Garden City, Southbank, the Sunshine Coast and Acacia Ridge, Lyly said the decision to expand to Warwick was “based off research”. The Warwick cafe currently trades seven days a week, from 8.00am to 5.00pm, but has plans to extend its hours in the near future. “We’re working on getting an alcohol licence and extending into night trade,” Lyly said. Patrons already have a wide range of speciality drinks and food to choose from - including breakfast food, light meals, steak, pasta, burgers and seafood - but Lyly said the current menu will soon be updated and expanded. Lyly is also now taking applications for a qualified chef, baristas and general floor staff to join the team. “We’ve hired a few people already, but we

The cafe is now open to patrons between 8.00am and 5.00pm.

Looking beautiful: Flowers and a facial on main street By Jess Baker In what is believed to be a Stanthorpe first, a florist and a beauty salon have combined forces to bring locals the best of both worlds. Last week, on Thursday 10 June, JLUXI beauty and flower bar opened at Maryland Street, offering a range of dried and fresh floral arrangements, gifts, beauty products and treatments. Beauty specialist Jessica Jannenga and wedding florist Kelsie Hawksworth, both with extensive experience in their independent fields, decided to embark on the new venture together just two months ago. Jessica, at 28 years old, had owned a beauty room at her family’s boutique gift store Gracious Giving for six years, and felt the time was right to fly the coop. Kelsie, at 26 years old, had been operating her own floral business from a shop at Rogers Street for two years, and felt like a change of pace and scenery. “Jess came up with the idea … and two

months ago she sent me a text and said ‘come with me’,” Kelsie said. “I liked the idea of having a shop in Stanthorpe. People are so welcoming and it’s so fun.” Jessica said her own business had been growing exponentially since early 2020, after she was forced to reconcile with the Covid-19 pandemic and reassess her business model. Many will remember that Queensland’s first shutdown brought face-to-face beauty services to a screeching halt. But Jessica adapted, and launched her own line of beauty products online. “It just boomed,” Jessica said. Today, she sells makeup, brushes, and false eyelashes to customers all over the world. But Jessica’s favourite part of job had always been – and remains – the social interaction, the ‘one-on-one’, with her clients. Which is why she decided to open a brickand-mortar beauty bar in Stanthorpe’s CBD. “I’ve already built up a good client base.

Being in a small town, you have a connection with your clients,” Jessica said. “I’m excited to watch both of us grow.” Jessica’s passion for beauty began more than a decade ago at age 15, when she visited a makeup stand in the middle of a shopping centre and immediately “fell in love”. She immediately enrolled at beauty school and completed her first makeup course at just 16 years old. She has since attained a Certificate IV and a diploma in beauty, as well as qualifications in spray tanning, eyelash extensions, brow sculpting, waxing, tinting and facials. Makeup artistry will always be Jessica’s “first love”, but she provides a plethora of beauty services at her new Maryland Street salon. Kelsie too began “dabbling” in her chosen industry at a young age, completing work experience at local florist Flowers of Elegance at 16 years old. Both Jessica and Kelsie are heavily in-

volved in the local wedding industry, with Jessica a prominent bridal artist and Kelsie and popular wedding florist. Their regular interactions at weddings led to a professional relationship, and then a friendship, that has since blossomed into the exciting new venture that is JLUXI beauty and flower bar.

Thousands on complaints By Jess Baker A Southern Downs councillor has asked members of the public to stop contributing to the “avalanche of official complaints” that are costing both state and local governments “thousands upon thousands” of dollars. Councillor Stephen Tancred delivered the impassioned address during an ordinary council meeting on 9 June, telling the room that there were better ways to clarify Southern Downs Regional Council’s decisions and operations than to issue complaints against councillors. He spoke in response to a recent complaint lodged against all nine councillors, including Mayor Vic Pennisi. The decision of the Office of the Independent Assessor – the body responsible for investigating and assessing complaints made against councillors from all local governments in Queensland – on the complaint was tabled at the council’s 9 June ordinary meeting, at the mayor’s request. “It is alleged you (Mayor Pennisi) and your fellow councillors breached the principles of the Local Government Act 2009, including sound contracting principles of the Act and breached the trust you owe to the public when you agreed in principle to sell a council asset to the proponents of the Emu Swamp Dam Granite Belt Water Limited,” the letter read. “It was alleged (the) council failed to obtain a valuation of the asset from a registered valuer that could lead to the asset being sold under its value.” The asset in question was a 450 megalitre water allocation from Storm King Dam that the council agreed to sell to Granite Belt Water for its Emu Swamp Dam project in December 2020. The council’s decision to sell was dependent on a number of resolutions first being met, including that Granite Belt Water obtain

sufficient water entitlements, funding, and all other approvals, licences or exemptions required for the Emu Swamp Dam project to viably and lawfully proceed. In April 2021, correspondence from the state government to the council was tabled at an ordinary meeting. In the letter, Queensland Deputy DirectorGeneral of Water Linda Dobe recommended the council consider “rewording” some of its resolutions for the future transfer of water entitlements to Granite Belt Water. “Of note are the conditions that (the) council requires the project to meet prior to entering agreement to sell 450 megalitres of the water allocation from Storm King Dam to Granite Belt Water for Emu Swamp Dam,” she wrote. Ms Dobe wrote that, due to the nature of the project and the timing of certain tasks, the caveats outlined by the council were unlikely to be met prior to pre-construction milestones being finalised. “As such, there is a risk that the project will not have legally binding or enforceable evidence of being able to acquire entitlements currently associated with Storm King Dam, from (the council),” she wrote. It was at that time that Warwick and Stanthorpe Today were leaked a copy of a Waterfind Water Valuation Report prepared for SDRC at its request, that estimated the 450 megalitre water allocation was valued between $1,125,000 ($2500 per megalitre) and $1,530,675 ($3401.50 per megalitre). Warwick and Stanthorpe Today understands that although Waterfind is not an accredited valuer, the council has no intention to pursue any further valuations. It is important to note that in December 2020, the council also agreed in principle to purchase 585 megalitres of water in the Emu Swamp Dam project for $3.51 million – $6000 per megalitre. Some members of the public have ex-

pressed concerns with the stark contrast between the price of the water entitlements the council has agreed to sell to the project and the price of the entitlements it has agreed to purchase from the project. The recent complaint lodged against all nine Southern Downs councillors indicates that at least one resident believes the council’s alleged failure to obtain a valuation of the 450 megalitre allocation from a registered valuer was a ‘breach of trust’ and a risk to ratepayers. But on 24 May, only 12 days after the complaint was lodged, the Office of the Independent Assessor wrote to Cr Pennisi advising him that the complaint had been dismissed. Deputy Independent Assessor Charles Kohn wrote that he had dismissed the complaint because the conduct of councillors did not raise “a reasonable suspicion of inappropriate conduct or misconduct within the meaning of the act”. Mr Kohn noted that Cr Pennisi and Cr Tancred made declarations of interest in the matter at the December 2020 ordinary meeting, and were excluded from voting on the matter. He also noted that Councillor Cameron Gow declared a conflict of interest in the matter and left the meeting when it was discussed. “The (Office of the Independent Assessor) also noted that the resolution was carried unanimously by those councillors eligible to vote and that the decision was an administrative decision of the council, and therefore, not councillor conduct as defined by the Act,” Mr Kohn wrote. During last week’s ordinary meeting, Cr Tancred commended the mayor for sharing with the community an example of an official complaint that all councillors had received. “I think this complaint would bring the number received by the current council to over 100, with almost 99 percent of them dismissed,” Cr Tancred said at the 9 June meeting. He clarified that he did not think the com-

plaint system was bad, that in fact it was crucial to ‘regulating’ councillors and staff, and safeguarding the community against corruption and poor decision-making. “But I’d like to point out that the Southern Downs as an organisation invests a lot of time and money (into) having a good governance system,” he said. “We regularly seek advice from the local government department from the Office of the Independent Assessor. We pay for advice regularly from our solicitors. “We’re in constant touch with the Local Government Association of Queensland. We always act based on best practices and experience … It’s not our first rodeo.” Cr Tancred said that the council welcomes the opportunity to explain and share its actions and the inner workings of the council, and every person is welcome to reach out to councillors and CEO Dave Burges directly for clarification. “Obviously, the authors of the complaints don’t like our decisions and operations,” he said. “They can write to government, write to the papers, hold meetings, get active on social media, (or) take out political ads. “Of course, every four years they could all vote for other preferred candidates at the next election or even run for office themselves.” He finished by saying that the massive amounts of complaints the council receives is “distracting the good workings of local government (and) costing (the) council a fortune, whilst achieving nothing much very useful”. Deputy Mayor Ross Bartley agreed with Cr Tancred’s sentiments, and said most councillors who have had a formal complaint lodged against them would understand how taxing it can be waiting for investigations to be completed by the Office of the Independent Assessor.

Local: Credit Union welcomes new CFO By Jess Baker

By Jess Baker A Darling Downs paramedic has been recognised for his commitment and service to the Texas community in the Queen’s Birthday 2021 Honours List. Officer-in-Charge at Texas Ambulance Station and Glen Aplin resident Peter Solomon said he was humbled and surprised by the award. “The community are genuinely appreciative of the service we provide and will always lend a hand where they can,” he said. “Apart from the day I qualified, this is probably the highlight of my career.” The Queensland Ambulance Service said Mr Solomon was a mainstay of the Darling Downs community after nearly 13 years responding as a single officer in Texas. “In his role as Officer-in-Charge, Peter provides an invaluable service to the region and has continually shown a commitment to providing care to rural communities over a period of 18 years,” QAS wrote in a statement. “His continued dedication and commitment are highly valued by the Queensland community, his peers and the QAS.” Federal Member for Maranoa David Littleproud thanked Mr Solomon for his commitment and service to the Texas community. “Congratulations Peter, on your welldeserved recognition (on Monday 14 June) and being presented with an Ambulance Service Medal for your 18 years of service with the Queensland Ambulance Service, and your commitment to the Texas community,” Mr Littleproud said. “As the Officer-in-Charge at Texas Ambulance Station, Peter is well-respected by his peers and community, and has shown outstanding commitment, dedication and a genuine desire to make a positive difference in people’s lives. “It’s a credit to Peter to be recognised for his efforts, and we are fortunate to have an accomplished first responder like Peter providing care for our rural community.”

The group offers home, investment, personal, rural and business loans, savings and fixed interest term investment accounts, insurance and a full range of online and card payments, with all profits kept in local areas to benefit locals. The credit union’s first ever member actually remains a member today, which Kellie said

is testament to the group’s focus on customer service. “We need to have the right fit for the right person. We’ve got customer service for the customers that don’t want to use ATMs, and then we’ve got online apps for the young people,” Kellie said. “We make sure that we’re across what our customers need. That’s our main thing – that you can actually talk to a real person who understands what you’re after.”

A local girl has assumed the role of Chief Financial Officer at Warwick Credit Union after 11 years of service within the organisation. Warwick identity Kellie Doherty formerly served as a regulatory accountant at the community-owned financial institution and said the step up was something she had wanted for some time. As CFO, Kellie is now responsible for upholding the financial wellbeing of the credit union and its 14,000 members across Allora, Killarney, Warwick, Inglewood, Dalby and Gympie. She said she hopes that in her new role she will be able to assist the credit union in continuing to operate in a profitable and sustainable way and in supporting its many members. “It’s a great opportunity and I’m very thankful to the board for giving me the opportunity,” she said. Whilst Kellie’s sights had been set on a ‘business-related’ job since her school days at Warwick West State School and Assumption College, she said her path to CFO was not clear cut. After finishing high school, up until the age of 25, Kellie spent her days working in agriculture administration. But her childhood love of numbers always lingered in the background. “I was always pretty nerdy. I loved accounting in school,” Kellie said. “I enjoyed that there was a definite answer (and) I just knew that I needed to study to further my opportunities.” Kellie began studying accounting part-time at university whilst working full-time in grain trading and, after seven years of study, Kellie had completed a Bachelor of Commerce. She went on to complete a Chartered Accountant accounting program with Warwick Credit Union - and thus began her impressive career in finance. Kellie said there are many advantages to working at the credit union, but what she loves most is the close relationship between staff, the board of directors, the institution’s members, and the wider community. “We’re very cautious about spending our money in town. Community sponsorship is a really great thing about the Warwick Credit Union,” she said. “We actually put the money back into the community … we sponsor lots of little events from bowls days right up to the rodeo and Jumpers and Jazz and the Warwick Cup.” Warwick Gympie Dalby Credit Union has now been in operation for more than 50 years – each year sponsoring hundreds of clubs and providing marquee hire and EFTPOS facilities to hundreds of local organisations. The credit union has always had a strong community focus, having been established in Gympie in 1968, and in Warwick in 1970,

Rates dispute resolved By Jess Baker

UKL director Terry Seirlis, his wife Imogen and daughters Alex and Eva. cil’s 9 June ordinary meeting, the council agreed to waive the remaining balance of rates and charges for properties owned at the estate by UKL, Ties Group and Iconic Construction “following payment of the agreed settlement”. While neither the council nor UKL revealed what the settlement agreement reached between the parties actually was, SDRC CEO Dave Burges said that its flow-on effects would be positive for the local construction and housing industries. “I am pleased that (the) council was able to

come to an agreement with the developer on the outstanding rates and charges and development issues and that the land can now be brought to market without further uncertainty,” he said. “Our region, like many others, is currently experiencing a housing shortage and having more land available that is ready for housing development is a bonus for the local economy no matter how you look at it.” With the settlement behind him, Terry Seirlis said he could turn his full attention to

Southern Downs Regional Council has agreed to accept a confidential settlement agreement with the property developers of multi-million dollar Warwick residential subdivision Aleva Estate. The company behind the estate, UKL Innovative Developments, announced on Friday 11 June that it was finally fully focused on building “one of the region’s happiest neighbourhoods” after settling its rates dispute with the council. This news came just weeks after UKL director Terry Seirlis accused SDRC of illegal and unreasonable conduct for resolving to sell land for unpaid rates. Terry claimed that SDRC had decided to reclaim and auction 38 properties at Aleva Estate to recover “alleged overdue rates and charges” for the period of time before “critical services” were provided. Terry told Warwick and Stanthorpe Today last month that he was more than willing to pay his “fair share”, but would not be “pushed around” by the council and would take the matter to court if necessary. A SDRC spokeswoman told Warwick and Stanthorpe Today that the council firmly rejected UKL’s assertion that the rates in question were either unfair or unlawful. Last week, Terry said that SDRC had come to terms with UKL in favour of legal proceedings. “We’re pleased to announce that UKL and SDRC have reached an agreement, we were able to find common ground in a meeting on Tuesday and reach a win-win outcome,” Terry said. “UKL would like to thank SDRC Chief Executive Officer Dave Burges and officers Scott Norman and Andrew Page for their time and commitment to resolving this matter.” In an ‘out-of-camera’ segment of the coun-

SDRC musings... Dear editor, The SDRC’s attitude to the Emu Swamp Dam reminds me of a gambler who is so addicted to the idea of beating the almost impossible odds that they will sink untold amounts into their gambling addiction. Even to the extent of taking money from others and other obligations to feed their addiction. SDRC and earlier Stanthorpe council have reputedly spent two million dollars over the years on expert consultants’ reports concerning how best to achieve water security for the region. Just like a gambler SDRC seems intent on only one strategy and are prepared to challenge the odds and ignore the expert advice even when the latest state government modelling showed that Emu Swamp Dam, if it had already existed, would not have prevented the town running out of water in the last drought. The problem for we ratepayers is that it is our money that is potentially wasted on this gamble by SDRC ignoring the experts ‘and the odds’. The cost of this gamble will be an upfront payment to Granite Belt Irrigation Project of $3.5 million dollars and then a quarter of a million dollars per year thereafter. [Even if we take no water from the dam!] The other cost is that SDRC will need to transfer 530 million litres of allocated urban water into the Emu Swamp Dam allocation. Once this water is transferred it loses its urban water status and is available to anyone else who wishes to become an Emu Swamp Dam customer. Maybe this will be good for the more wealthy growers in this region who can afford to buy into this private dam. But reading the Badu report [and others] makes me think this dam is a gamble for growers as well? The question is will this gamble be good for ratepayers? Effectively SDRC are committing a huge amount of our money and resources on this gamble. What will be the real cost? Are the recent water rates hike and the slashing of 10 positions from council staff the beginning of further rate increases and staff cuts to pay for this ‘water security’ gamble which ignores the advice of the experts?

I am also curious why SDRC are happy to ignore several different expert consultants that they have spent millions of dollars on and then set up a ‘secretive’ consultancy group to advise council. The questions are; who are these unelected people, what is their expertise and what exactly will they be advising council on? Also why will only the mayor be able to select the members of this secretive group and why will only the mayor and his deputy be allowed to attend these meetings? Why also will this ‘secretive’ group not be obliged to create detailed minutes that would be made available to other councillors and the public? These other councillors will in future presumably be asked to vote on issues and policy when they have not been part of the initial discussion process. Effectively they will be voting in ignorance. How does this development fit with Mr Pennisi’s campaign for election where he promised an open door policy with transparency and ACCOUNTABILITY? - John Morison, Stanthorpe

Thoughts on dam... Emu Swamp Dam, will it provide water security or will it be a ‘A mill stone around SDRC ratepayers’ necks?’ During the last SDRC council election there was much talk about the Granite Belt needing water security. Our mayor, some of our new SDRC councillors, state and federal MPs desperately want the 12,000 megalitre (ML) Emu Swamp Dam built. One must ask the question, is Emu Swamp Dam going to provide water SECURITY for irrigators and Stanthorpe urban users for the next 20 years? It is proposed that Emu Swamp Dam be constructed on the Severn River north west of Ballandean. The dam is designed to have; capacity 12,074 ML, depth 20 metres, bank length 580 metres, catchment about 70,000 hectares, Annual Water Allocation about 4000 ML and a 126km pipe line. When evaporation from the water stored in Emu Swamp Dam is taken into consideration,

The 140-metre deep 620-metre wide gorge at the ‘Nundubbermere Falls’ dam site on the Severn River, drawn by Mark McNichol on 13 March 2020. Picture: SUPPLIED over three years with no inflow into the dam, about two metres, 3000 ML and 25 percent of the dam’s capacity will be lost to evaporation, that will leave about 9000 ML of water available, that is enough irrigation water for two years, 500 ML for Stanthorpe urban users and 500 ML for the fish. The foundation for the dam is going to be very expensive relative to its small size because the site is not an ideal dam site: there are no steep hills close together either side of the river, the length of the bank, 580 metres, which is longer than Glenlyon Dam’s 500 metres, however it will only store five percent of Glenlyon Dam’s 254,000 ML. Some people have said of Emu Swamp Dam’s small capacity, “something is better than nothing”, that is like saying when a freight company needs 40-tonne semi-trailer, that a truck of five percent, a two-tonne truck is better than nothing. Three dams that were constructed over a 11-year period, from 1965 to 1976 that have a total capacity of 429,000 ML, they are on the western side of the SDRC region; Leslie Dam – 1965 – 106,000 ML – 29 m deep, Coolmunda Dam – 1968 – 69,000 ML – 16 m deep and Glenlyon Dam – 1976 – 254,000 ML – 62 m deep. During this recent drought no water came out of those dams for irrigation during 2019 and 2020 because there was no water in them to irrigate with. On the eastern side of the SDRC region two dams were constructed with a total capacity of 4200 ML: Storm King Dam - 1954 - 2200 ML – 10 m deep and Connolly Dam near Warwick – 1927 - 2000 ML – 17 m deep. If the 12,000 ML

Emu Swamp Dam gets built, we will have a total capacity of 16,200 ML. If the three 429,000 ML dams ran out of water for irrigation, are the three dams that hold 16,200 ML going to provide the SDRC region with water security over the coming 20 years? Given that the Severn River catchment is similar to Glen Lyon Dams Pikes Creek catchment, about 120,000 hectares, what the Granite Belt, Warwick and Tenterfield areas need for water security, is a Glen Lyon Dam sized 250,000 ML dam, with a 35,000 ML Annual Water Allocation for five years, in the 140-metredeep 620 m wide gorge, six km below Nundubermere Falls. This dam compared with Emu Swamp Dam; capacity 238,000 ML more, Annual Water Allocation 31,000 ML more over three more years. Why would our mayor, some of our SDRC councillors, and state and federal MPs want to construct Emu Swamp Dam at its present location when only 3729 ML ran past the Severn River Gauge Station, 11 km downstream of the dam, on 23 and 24 March this year when 41,117 ML ran past the Farnbro Gauge Station downstream of the Nundubermere Falls dam site. If the SDRC invests money into Emu Swamp Dam, will the dam provide water security for urban water users or will it be a ‘millstone around rate payers’ necks’? Tell our mayor, councillors, and state and federal MPs what do you think? - Marika McNichol, Stanthorpe

HISTORY

Allan Cunningham was reportedly the first European to discover the in the Southern Downs Region, as historian ROBERT MacMAURICE explains.

Journey of discovery so after following along Glengallan Creek the party veered over to other points of interest and camped, at Freestone Creek. If he had kept following to the upper reaches of Miller’s Valley, he may have discovered Cunningham’s Gap on this expedition. He also named Mount Dumaresq and Mount Sturt and after the rain set out to explore the Swanfels Valley. Logan’s Vale (Swanfels Valley) Sunday 10 June 1827. The party camped about ten kilometres up the Swanfels Valley following the Swan Creek. Sighting Spicer’s Gap Monday 11 June 1827. Allan Cunningham climbed a ridge that rose to about 1200 metres on the northern side of the upper Swanfels Valley. From here he observed Spicer’s Gap, Mount Mitchell (which obscured Cunningham’s Gap, about 10 kilometres, from where he was standing on the southern side), Mount Warning, Mount Double Top, Flinder’s Peak, amongst other features familiar to him from his 1824 explorations of the Moreton region with John Oxley. He did not personally examine Spicer’s Gap, because his exertions, to that point, and ongoing suffering from hepatitis had debilitated him. Instead two of his men went to examine the gap, while he waited in camp to recover, and they confirmed the possibility of passage through to the coast. Killarney Saturday 16 June 1827. With confirmation of a way to the coast and Brisbane, and realising the need to nurture supplies for the return journey, Allan Cunningham began his southward journey passing slightly west of Killarney. He named this downs area Canning Downs.

He crossed the Great Dividing Range and observed creeks flowing east and west. He also observed Bald Rock. Girraween National Park Tuesday 26 June 1827. At some point the barriers of granite formations were causing such problems with travel progress, that Allan Cunningham turned backwards and crossed features such as Snakebite Creek, Paling Yard creek, Racecourse Creek, Mount Norman Road, Pyramid Road, McLaughlin Creek. Eukey, Ballandean Wednesday 27 June 1827. Once out of the barriers of the granite formations, that so define Girraween, Allan Cunningham again struck a south, south westerly course and passed near Eukey Hall, Doctor’s Creek, Ballandean, and camped at Accommodation Creek. Upper McIntyre River Friday 6 July 1827. After leaving his Accommodation Creek camp, Allan Cunningham and his party crossed the Severn River, and then the Upper McIntyre River and began to notice country they had sighted on their northern journey as they approached the Gwydir River. With this journey Allan Cunningham had discovered one of the richest farming areas in Australia, along with the Spicer’s Gap access to the Downs, from Brisbane. It was a year later on Monday 25 August 1828, that he approached from the Brisbane side and climbed Mount Mitchell, and so observed the western features he had observed a year before, along with Cunningham’s Gap cutting through beside Mount Cordeaux and his vantage point.

This June is the 194th anniversary of Allan Cunningham’s journey and discovery of the Darling Downs. Allan Cunningham’s expedition travelled from Segenhoe Station, in the Hunter Valley to the discovery of the Darling Downs and back, over a 13 week period from 30 April 1827 to 28 July 1827. This was a journey of about 1400 kilometres. He travelled with six men, 11 pack animals and supplies for fourteen weeks. The time that he spent in the Southern Downs region can be dated from 5 June 1827 to 6 July 1827. In what follows is a list of places and dates, that can be deduced approximately from Allan Cunningham’s journal and report and longitude and latitude recordings and descriptions. Some places he named (not all were adopted), and other names came later. Herries Range Tuesday 5 June 1827. It is on this day that Allan Cunningham and his party came out of McIntyre Brook and up onto the Herries Range saw a most wondrous sight. They looked across the Condamine River and along a beautiful valley, with a chain of ponds, now called Glengallan Creek. There had been recent rain and Allan Cunningham noted the extensive pasturage; the richness of the soil, and the availability of box and white gums around. It looked like a park. From this vantage point the party travelled through, Thane, Greymare and Cunningham. They crossed the Condamine River near Cunningham, and kept following Glengallan Creek. Miller’s Valley (Gladfield and Maryvale area) Friday 8 June 1827. Two days of rain set in and

TOP PICKS OF THE WEEK

TRUE GRIT SBS, 9.30pm

SUNDAY

HUNGER ABC TV, 9.25pm

The history of Northern Ireland can be shocking to revisit in earnest. In 1981, a number of Irish prisoners went on a hunger strike in protest at the British Government’s refusal to classify them as political prisoners. Steve McQueen depicts the final six weeks in the life of Bobby Sands (Michael Fassbender, left), the first of 10 hunger strikers to die that year. An incredibly bleak piece of work – it is more a film about human suffering than political propaganda. Difficult but essential viewing.

SUNDAY

AUSTRALIAN NINJA WARRIOR NINE, 7pm

A mammoth task is set for this season of Australian Ninja Warrior. How do you eclipse season four when videographer-turned-muscleman-extraordinaire Ben Polson was ﬁnally the ﬁrst contestant to conquer the near-impossible obstacle course, Mount Midoriyama, after seasons of nail-biting drama, pocketing the jackpot of $400,000? Well, recruiting Aussie tennis bad boy Nick Kyrgios, who is famed for being unable to bite his tongue, to join hosts Shane Crawford, Ben Fordham (right) and Rebecca Maddern could be the ticket to success. On top of that, there are 26 new courses, including the intriguing ‘Dragon Back’ and ominous ‘Underwater Escape’. But, let’s face it: fans love this adrenaline-packed show any way it comes.

FRIDAY

MASTERMIND AUSTRALIA SBS, 7.30pm

When SBS premiered Mastermind Australia in 2019, it seemed like a gamble. Who wanted to watch a quiz show inspired by the Gestapo’s interrogation methods? But what sounded dark and sombre turned out to be a riveting show, with just the right measure of intensity and levity. Most of all, the incredible and detailed knowledge displayed by the contestants has been enthralling, quickly catapulting the show to one of the most watched on the network. Now, with Marc Fennell having found his groove in the hosting chair, we come to season three’s nail-biting ﬁnal. Four remaining contenders put their skills to the test: who will be the next Australian Mastermind?

Jeff Bridges (below) reunites with Big Lebowski filmmakers Joel and Ethan Coen as he takes on the role of Rooster Cogburn in this gritty western. Drawing inspiration from Charles Portis’ original novel rather than the 1969 classic that earned John Wayne an Oscar, the Coens return the focus to Mattie Ross (Hailee Steinfeld), a vengeful 14-year-old girl who enlists the help of the ageing lawman to track down her father’s killer (Josh Brolin). Matt Damon saddles up alongside the pair as a Texas ranger also hunting down the murderer. The definitive adaptation of the novel that firmly stakes its place in the American Western hall of fame.

Friendly Freestone Fridays By Jess Baker With winter well and truly upon us, and the nights crisp and cool, there is no better time than now to enjoy a hearty, country meal and some warm conversation with our neighbours. Friendly Fridays at Freestone Hall are in full swing and the hall committee is serving up dinner and drinks for all. Freestone resident and dairy farmer Bill McVeigh is a member of the hall committee and has attended the monthly evenings since they first began five years ago. “Events like these are a break from the farm, a chance to talk to like-minded people and bounce ideas off each other,” Bill said. “During the drought, I don’t know what we would have done if we didn’t have them. Everyone was so affected.” Bill said he loved the social aspect of Friendly Fridays, and that they offered something completely different to the ‘day-to-day’. At well over 150 years old, Freestone Hall has long served as a social meeting place for friends and neighbours. But Freestone residents Alan and Alison Payne hatched the idea for Friendly Fridays just a few years ago, after attending a similar event at Goomburra Hall. “The idea was just to get the community together,” Alison said. “People get so busy with their lives.” Today, Freestone Hall hosts anywhere between five and 50 people on the monthly Friday evenings, serving up soups, hotpots, barbecues, and pizza for all and any in need of friendly conversation and a hot meal. The hall has a number of major events coming up, including a big bush breakfast and Jumpers and Jazz experience on Saturday 17 July. Those interested in upcoming events at Freestone Hall, including Friendly Fridays, can forward their enquiries to freestonehallwarwick@gmail.com, or visit Freestone Community and Hall on Facebook.

All needs in one spot Pete’s Tyre’s and Wheels Stanthorpe is a friendly family business offering quality new and used tyres. A one-stop shop, you can get your tyres supplied, fitted and balanced all at Unit 1/11 Gourlas Court Stanthorpe. And although the business only opened in November 2020, with more than 20-years, experience, Peter Manns knows tyres – all sorts of tyres, for all sorts of vehicles - both new and used. “We have a good range of new tyres, we sell most brands – there are some that are tied up by other companies,” he explained. “But we also have a good range of second-hand tyres, road and off-road, quad and lawn-mower tyres, tractor tyres and obviously light wheels, off-road wheels, alloy wheels and some of the fancy wheels that people like to put on their cars. “We can do all fitting and balancing – we all so have a wheel aligning service available. I do use a guy around the corner to do them, but basically if people leave their car here it’s one stop. I take it around and get the alignment done and it comes back with a full printout of what it was like and how it is now and they can just pay me directly instead of having to run around to different places. “As well as the new and used tyres we do tyre repairs and of course rim repairs – handy if someone has bent their rim in a big pot hole.”

With over 20 years experience, Peter is the man to see on the Granite Belt for quality new and used tyres supplied, fitted, and balanced.

Bobbie the Dog and her team at Pete’s Tyre and Wheels. Peter said they can also arrange to give people a lift back into town because there’s “not a whole lot to do in an industrial estate for an hour and a half.” “So, if they need to run back into town, or back home we can do that,” he explained. “We’re a family business, offering good honest service and we’re open five and a half days a week.” They are currently open 8am-4.30pm Monday to Friday and 8am to noon on Saturdays (though Peter said those hours will expand when it gets warmer.

OUR REGION’S BEST WarwickStanthorpeToday.com.au

Q&A

with Lisa Hansford

This week’s Q&A subject is LISA HANSFORD, the owner of popular Warwick health food store The Scoop. Thank you for your time and thoughts Lisa! What is you favourite spot in our region? Leslie Dam, in the warmer months we are at the dam every weekend, swimming, fishing, camping, water spots. What do you most love about what you do as the Owner of The Scoop Sustainable Healthy living? I love that I am able to provide a more natural/ back to basics way of living. Our ethics at The Scoop support a healthy, happy body and environment. This includes the food we eat, the products we use and how we package these products. Single use plastic is a massive problem in today’s society and one that I feel will have permanent and irreversible affects on out health, environment and wildlife, therefore I feel absolutely privileged that am in a position where I can educate and bring awareness to these subjects that I am so passionate about. Oh and I LOVE the people, my customers are the BEST!! I have met so many wonderful and interesting people, with amazing stories, tips and I very much value your conversations and support. What was the best concert you’ve ever been to? The grease concert, it was more of a musical, but everyone in the theatre was singing, the energy and vibe were so high. It was an awesome experience. What do you do to relax? We are extremely busy and on the go all the time. Having two young boys, running a business and also studying, I am well aware of the importance and necessity of relaxation. So in our down time we like to be outside and amongst nature, going for walks, the boys are currently digging up an old horse drawn cart in the top paddock, which is interesting and relaxing. We have a massive veggie garden that also has it therapeutic values.

THREE … Tips to grow vegies in winter In the warm temperate to tropical regions of Australia, temperatures during the day may range from the low to high 20s even though nights may be chilly (below 10 in some parts). In these areas, soils absorb heat from the sun during the day and retain most of that warmth overnight. That’s good news for those wanting to grow vegetables and herbs year-round.

What’s something people may not know about you? Growing up all I wanted to be was a marine biologist, but decided to go into animal nutrition because I believed I wasn’t a good enough swimmer. What has been the you most memorable moment and why? The Day The Scoop opened. What an accomplishment, I had a vision and I worked towards it, we are on our fourth year of business this month. I had no idea or experience about business or even retail and had only ever really worked or studied agriculture. This whole experience has been a massive learning curve for me, and I have grown and learnt so much since the opening. Which six guests -dead or alive – would you invite to your ultimate dinner party? Assuming my family would naturally be attending 1. My grandma (deceased) 2. Patch Adams (Hunter Doherty Adams) Physician, comedian, social activist, clown, and

author 3. Sabastian Kneipp (1821-1897) The Farther of Naturopathy 4. Mary Wade -the youngest convicted convict sent to Australia at the age of 11 years on the second fleet. Mary had 21 children and only 7 survived to adulthood. 5. Slim Dusty 6. Albert Einstein What event – past, present or future would you like to witness? I would love to have rode beside Jack Riley ‘The man from snowy’ when he brought the wild brumbies around. What is the best book you’ve read? My all time favourite book is Mrs Frisby and the rats of nimb, I’m currently reading this book to my boys. At school I... ... was a very naughty student who had all my teachers wrapped around my little finger. Looking back, I have no idea how I got away or passed year 12 with the pranks and shenanigans I pulled.

Mid-winter is a great time for sowing vegetable and herb seeds and planting out seedlings. Seeds of the following may be sown now either direct into the soil or into seed trays for later transplanting: Beetroot, Silverbeet, Spinach, Carrots, Lettuce (all types).

Mid year is also a great time for planting tuberous and perennial crops such as: Jerusalem artichoke, Galangal, Ginger, Turmeric.

Before sowing seeds in winter, soil must be prepped so young plants can flourish. To prep your soil some good tips are: Apply even more nutrients such as blood and bone and fish emulsions and turning over soil allowing water to soak in efficiently and reducing air pockets.

Easing the last ‘goodbye’ By Rose City Probus Club of Warwick Stephen Wilson of Warwick Funerals has a positive and simple guide for anyone considering plans for their own funeral, or for loved ones. Speaking at the Rose City Probus Club recently, Stephen gave warm and encouraging ‘tips’ for making a sometimes-difficult path a much simpler one and explained why it is so important to plan a funeral, and to keep it relevant and unique for the person departed. “Remember the four R’s …. a funeral service allows loved ones and friends the opportunity to fully Realise the person has departed. It also brings opportunity to Remember the person respectfully, to Receive honour for the person and support for those left behind, and Release the person from their tangible presence amongst us. In other words – to say a respectful and healthy goodbye,” Stephen said. “For these reasons, everyone should take time to consider carefully a plan for their funeral and speak about it with family or friends who would take responsibility to see it through when the time comes. “This is a great support for those left be-

hind, who are often dealing with grief and for some, thoughts about their own future.” Should family or friends be needing to take care of funeral arrangements, it is suggested to remain mindful of what would be respectful for the departed, and for those present for the service. Music and photo PowerPoints have become a very important part of funerals and ideally reflect personal likes of the person being honoured and highlights. Funeral directors do their work with great care and treat every customer as individuals with specific requests. An appointment with them will have all aspects of the funeral taken care of if you need it – including medical paperwork, booking of venue, ministers and celebrants, cemetery, and after-service catering if required. Stephen finished with emphasising the importance to “take the time to prepare your plan carefully. Talk it over with family or friends if that makes it easier. It is a most important day for you and your loved ones.” Rose City Probus Club meets every third Wednesday of the month at the Granary – behind Dairy Lounge at the Factory Precinct, to

Jasmin joins the fest quest

Views from new granite rock seat By Julia Hassall, Stanthorpe Rotary Club president The RSL Grant for a Quart Pot Creek Seat project was realised Tuesday morning with Stanthorpe’s Service Director Geoff Marsden’s team. It is an amazing Granite Rock Seat with superb views up and down the creek. It is situated below the Information Centre beside the weir and when sitting there the water flowing over the weir is a reminder of how precious water is here in Stanthorpe and the surrounding District. This project began with an idea in 2017 during Morwenna Harslett’s year as President of the Rotary Club of Stanthorpe. The project is a result of a community grant donated by our local RSL, which was for a seat at Quart Pot Creek. A plaque acknowledging RSL and Rotary will be put in place in the near future. The position for the seat is in a delightful spot and people will be able to enjoy the beautiful views up the creek from the weir to the colourful thermometer and downstream towards

the bridge and beyond. The original idea was going to be an aluminium seat which would have rechargeable facilities attached and solar panels to recharge the batteries. There are similar seats in other areas in Queensland. Visitors and locals could sit and enjoy the views while their mobile devices recharged. This is still a possible project, but was not accepted by locals as suitable for this spot. The Rotary Club of Stanthorpe Club Service Director Geoff Marsden and his committee, settled on a new plan. We had holdups, Covid, then the weather wasn’t suitable. The installers undertook Work Place Health and Safety Training and after consultation with Southern Downs Regional Council it is now in place. The construction was under the supervision of Mick Mahoney from Council Parks and Reserves. The granite rock seat was transported by Alec Harslett from his property in Amiens at “Foxbar Falls”. The granite rock seat was installed on Tuesday 15 June 2021 by 8.00am.

Alec transported the rock on his truck, and installed it with his tractor’s forklift. Alec has had practice at Foxbar Falls with installing granite tables and seats, so it was all done by 9.30am. Trevor Marsden was in charge of the levelling, drilling of the steel rods into the Granite Base Rock, the concrete base and the finishing touches. The concrete was supplied thanks to Walls Sand and Gravel Stanthorpe. Of course the weight of this rock will ensure it remains in place for generations to come. Rotary has been instrumental in placing much of the infrastructure around that part of Quart Pot Creek below the Information Centre, including two shelters including Rotary BBQ shelter and tables and seating. There are several other working bee projects being organised to tidy up some of the rock areas along the creek in the coming months. Rotarians are “People of Action”. For more information about Rotary Projects or to get involved, visit Rotary Club of Stanthorpe website https://stanthorperotary. org.

Learning award for Stanthorpe school A Stanthorpe school is one of the first in the world to be recognised as a Visible Learning+ certified School. St Joseph’s School is the in Queensland, joining only two others in Australia and is just one of eight schools across the world who have Level Three Visible Learning+ certified school status. “Three and half years ago the school began its Visible Learning Program with the aim of improving teaching and learning across the school,” Principal Andrew Kendall said. “It has been very successful and the improvement for both the students and teachers has been significant. St Joseph’s School is now seen as a ‘Lighthouse School in Visible Learning’ for all 31 schools across the Toowoomba Diocese with regular visits by other principals and teachers to learn from us.” He said Visible Learning is based on the re26 TODAY Thursday, 17 June, 2021

search of world-renowned education expert Professor John Hattie and focuses on accelerating student learning and setting them up to be learners for life. “Visible learning is very goal oriented and is about the partnership between the teacher and the student in setting learning goals that are not only challenging but also explicit,” Mr Kendall said. “As the student works on the goal, feedback is provided both by the teacher to the student, but importantly from the student to teacher. “It is through this that they are both making visible the learning that is taking place. The teacher can then modify or accelerate the teaching approach to ensure the student reaches or exceeds that goal that was set.” At its best, visible learning enables students to discuss with teachers and other students

how they are learning and use these skills in new situations. “In order for teachers and students to be successful in the 21st century they must be persistent, be communicators, be confident, be thinkers, be collaborators and be resilient. These are the hallmarks of St Joseph’s visible learning and the students and teachers focus is on continuing to grow these skills.” Mr Kendall said with nearly every child’s learning journey at school being a 13 year one that starts in Prep and finishes in Year 12, successfully navigating that journey and being ready for life beyond school is what is driving this focus. “We want to ensure students experience success in their school learning, so that they are encouraged to continue learning in their adult life, and know how they learn best,” said Mr Kendall.

With entries set to close in two weeks, twenty-one-year-old Jasmin Ball-Mandavy has become the latest entrant in the Apple and Grape Harvest Young Ambassador contest. Jasmine, Stanthorpe born and bred, said she enlisted the advice of friends and family before deciding to enter. However, she said her the final decision came down to the amazing support that was being offered by her sponsor and workplace Cav Insure. “Josh and Cara Cavallaro are amazing bosses who run such a professional business and the fact they encouraged me to be a part of this program is so amazing,” Jasmin said. “By becoming a Young Ambassador, I hope to get my name out and around the community and to show the older community that young people do care about the region we all call home. I also hope to learn some public speaking skills…that is the part that scares me the most”. Jasmin, Cara and their committee already have fundraising events planned and can’t wait to be a part of the festival that has played such a huge role in their lives while growing up in the region. “To be involved even further in our community through the Apple and Grape and to help Jasmin gain a more personal knowledge of our region is really a win, win for everyone,” Cara said. “Both Josh and I have watched Jasmin go from strength to strength within our business over the past six months and to see her step up again is just so exciting”. When not working towards her goal of being an Account Manager within Cav Insure and planning her dream wedding for 2023, Jasmin can be found exploring the local area through geocaching and visiting local attractions with her fiance and young son. Apple and Grape president Russell Wantling said he was very pleased to have Cav Insure’s support for the event. “To have another local business throw their support behind the festival is amazing for this region,” he said. “Josh and Cara are all about their community, and I am sure they will help Jasmin achieve all she has set out to do”. With only two weeks until the cut off for Young Ambassador sign-on, Mr Wantling asked interested quest participants and potential business sponsors to contact Young Ambassador Director Samantha Wantling on 0439 420 289 or co-director Kasey Charlton on 0491 092 932. He said to keep up to date with all the local festival happenings log onto the Apple and Grape Festival Friend and Volunteers facebook page for more information on what the ambassadors are planning and anything that involves the local side of the festival.

Livestock numbers were on a par this week for both the cattle and sheep and lamb numbers for the weekly sales. Agents yarded 438 cattle for the sale and then 985 head were presented for the sheep and lamb sale. The pig numbers were low and with buyers looking to procure stock the market was firm. Poultry numbers were still up and the better, fancier types were still cornering the market. The weather may have an influence on the numbers coming to the yards as we move further into the cold weather and lose the grass in the paddocks. Cattle numbers Vealer steers sold from 565.4c/kg to 642.2c/ kg live or from $1310.53 to $1632.93 Vealer heifers sold from 478.6c/kg to 548.2c/ kg live or from $1292.13 to $1659.70 Feeder steers sold from 418.9c/kg to 510.2c/ kg live or from $1764.29 to $2164.50 Feeder heifers sold from 415.8c/kg to 476.2c/ kg live or from $1351.39 to $1857.18 Yearling steers sold from 455.3c/kg to 540.2c/ kg live or from $1442.14 to $2149.23 Yearling heifers sold from 417.7c/kg to 500c/ kg live or from $1350.11 to $1946.74 Steers sold from 421.7c/kg to 516.2c/kg live or from $$1844.56 to $2380.75 Heifers sold from 373.7c/kg to 443.2c/kg live or from $1576.13 to $2354.16 Manufacturing Steers sold from 348.2c/kg to 406.2c/kg live or from $1699.51 to $2008.06 Cows sold from 304c/kg to 398.2c/kg live or from $1498.88 to $2394.25

The partner of a Brisbane man reported missing in Girraween National Park on the last weekend in March has expressed her gratitude for the “efforts and compassion” of local Granite Belt emergency services personnel and volunteers who conducted search efforts for Manfred Luck, with the search having been scaled back after a week of “massive effort”, local police said. Mr Luck, 71, has been described as a “fit and experienced” hiker - who loved Girraween above all other National Parts. More on page 3

Mavis’s answer of 5S showed two Aces and the Queen of spades. As Mavis’s jump to 4S had shown a strong hand, 7S was a logical final step.

The Spin Maroons outdone by Blues There is no hiding from the truth. Sad as it is to admit, the Maroons were thrashed by a Blue’s team that was just far too good. I guess the one positive is that by the end of the game no-one was talking about referees, bunkers, linesmen, or officials. If you were a NSW supporter you wanted the game to go on forever while Maroon supporters just wanted it to be over. It takes an awful lot to silence a Pro Queensland crowd in Townsville Stadium, but the Blues certainly achieved it. It was as though the crowd simultaneously contracted laryngitis. After the game, and once the pain had eased a little, it was not too difficult to acknowledge a team of champions who left their egos in the dressing sheds and obliterated a woeful maroons side. Midway through the first half I was hoping Paul Green, Thurston or Alfie might find a forward lurking in the crowd who could join the party because it seemed the selected Queensland forwards may have nipped off to Magnetic Island for the evening and taken a few of the backs with them. I guess those of us who bleed Maroon, now have some idea of the deep wounds that Queensland inflicted on the Blues for a very long time. It looks like it is time for us to take our medicine. But hold the phone - that was only one game. Two more to go and we have seen miracles before. A win in this series however would be akin to the fellow who walked on water, and I cannot see that happening again. Well done Blues – You are still Cockroaches, just a team of extremely talented Cockroaches. Are most Maroon supporters on my side when I say the worst part of the whole sorry affair will be listening to Gus Gould’s pre game monologue before kick-off at Lang Park? No chance of him contracting laryngitis. Come on Maroons – your made of sterner stuff that what we saw last week. (I hope) - Casey

WARWICK GYMNASTICS RISE ABOVE CHALLENGES The Warwick Gymnastics club has faced their fair share of adversity over the past 12 months. While all sporting organisations have had to deal with Covid shutdowns, restrictions and forced cancellations, the Warwick Gymnastics club has also had to deal with two fires and two floods at their Easy Street premises during that period. It certainly has not been easy on Easy Street for this club. If the gods are testing their mettle, then they have risen to the challenges and then some. In term one this year the club had record levels of participation with 350 children registered. Lyndsay Ryan said earlier this week the club has been able to retain participation levels at around 300 since with a large number of boys turning t the sport since they reopened after the COVID lockdown. The club caters for girls and boys from five years and over and all skill levels from those who train just once a week on a recreational level to those interested in comepitition level. The tiny tumblers (aged two-five years (non-school Age) are not forgotten with classes provided for them also. Lyndsay said the club has received great support from right across the region and beyond. “We have children who travel from Inglewood and Stanthorpe each week and even some from Woodenbong,” she said. It has been a busy month for the club with teams on the road each weekend travelling to 32 TODAY Thursday, 17 June, 2021

LATE RUN PROVES A WINNER The Final of the Warwick Bowls Club Self Selected Pairs was played last Saturday. In a very close game Trevor Wright and Edwin Welsh defeating Jim Rickard and Brian Black 21-20. Jim and Brian held a nine-four lead at the sixth end. Their opponents got two shots back on the next end narrowing the margin. They remained on six until the 13th end where they again held two shots. The score at this point was 18-8 in favour of Rickard and Black. The leaders added another two to their score to lead 20-8. Someone flicked a switch when the game reached the 16th end and Wright and Welsh decided it was time to get serious. They won the next six consecutive ends (3, 1, 3, 1, 3, 2) coming from the clouds to wrap up the final by one shot. Congratulations to the winners and commiserations, but well played none the less to the runners-up. In social games played during the week Tony Pritchard, Neil Olsen and John Ruhle defeated Russel Forbes, Ralph Tate and Ray Schnitzerling 27-19. Max Balfour and Ken Hayes had an 18-12 win in their game against Aaron Payne and Tom Seaniger 18-12. What’s on for the remainder of June: Wed 16: KFC sponsored bowls afternoon. Sat 19: Social bowls.

LOCAL FOOTBALLERS ON CHAMPIONSHIP STAGE The 2021 State Football Championship for Girls 16-19 and Boys 17-19 were held at Highfields Toowoomba, recently. Lauren Coelli and Brooke Favero were selected to play in the 16-19 years girls Darling Downs team. Lauren played right back and Brooke played on the wing or up front. Brayden Spiller was selected to play in the Darling Downs 17-19 Boys team but unfortunately injured his shoulder before the Championships. Both Lauren and Brayden play for Ballandean Football club, while Brooklyn plays for the Stanthorpe International Club. Ten regions from across Queensland met in Highfields for the four-day tournament. This event was highly anticipated after the cancellation of the 2020 Championships due to COVID-19. Spirits were high among players, coaches, organisers and spectators alike.

TESTING CONDITIONS FOR GOLFERS The weather seems to have dominated all sports reports over the past week and things were no different for the Stanthorpe golfers

who faced another cold day on the course last Saturday. Conditions certainly tested golfers playing in the Stableford event which was sponsored by Keith and Helen Jones. Keith Barnett could have been forgiven for thinking he had been spirited back to UK but that did not prevent him from returning the winning score of 37 points in the men’s comepitition and take home the major prize. Keith’s round got off to a fair start but his back nine produced 22 points to seal the win. One point back on 36 was runner up, Mark Hendry. A mishap at the 14th hole resulted in zero point which at the end of the round proved the difference between a possible win and second place. In the ladies event a countback was necessary to determine the winner between Annelle Batterham and Kay Webb after both returned 34 points. A better back nine saw Annelle get the nod with Kay settling for runner up. Men’s pin shots went to David Burgess at three, Scott Constable at 12 and Keith Barnett at 17. Lyn Ludlow collected the First Ladies pin at three, Neta Thouard at 12 and Lisa Stuart at 17. Nathan Stibbard held pro-pins at 1/10 and The Men’s run down went to 33 points and the ladies to 30 points and better. I hear it was a case of Oops don’t follow the leader at the 14th. The first player in one group teed off from the wrong spot, followed by the next and the next before the error was spotted. The resulting penalties did little to help their scores (ouch). This Saturday members play an Individual Stableford for the Finch Cup. The day will be sponsored by Tom and Trish Fittock. Unfortunately, a work-related injury will keep Trish out of action for a while. We wish Trish a fast recovery from the injury and look forward to seeing her back on the fairways soon.

COLD ON THE GREENS; WARM WELCOME INSIDE The Summit Bowls club is undoubtedly the coldest bowls club in the State but always offers the warmest of welcomes. Ten brave souls ventured out on to the greens on Saturday afternoon to test the theory. Pam Moore and Tyler Sweeney had a 1210 win over Mary Zanatta and Michael Sweeney 10. Artie Zamprogno, Eddie Zanatta and Adrian Jackson had a 15-11 win in their triples game against Brian Brown, Rocky Thompson and Paul Zamprogno. I can confirm no-one froze on the greens but all enjoyed the warmth of the clubhouse post game. The Summit will be nominating a side (three-teams) in the first division pennant competition. Selector Peter has placed a sheet on the notice board. He asks that players who wish to play pennants and represent the club place their names on this sheet.

TRL A GRADE DEBUT FOR PATTI Saturday’s TRL A grade clash between the Cowboy’s and Highfields is one game 17-yearold Brock Patti is unlikely to forget after making his A Grade debut for the Cowboys. Patti, who played all his junior football for the Stanthorpe Gremlins, has been playing in the Cowboy’s Under 18 team this season. On Friday afternoon he got the call from A grade Coach Matt Grew to say he would be coming off the interchange bench in the A Grade game. The young lock played a full game in the Under 18 clash with Highfields scoring in the 45th minute. Unfortunately, the Under 18’s went 26-24 in that game, but the disappointment of the narrow loss was overshadowed later in the afternoon when Patti ran out with the A Grade side. Patti was not overawed and certainly did not look out of place when he got his chance in the A Grade game and was not shy of going forward and taking on Highfields. The Coach was full of praise for the young debutant in his post-game interview saying his performance after playing a full 80 minutes in the Under 18’s was exceptional. Patti said he enjoyed his step up to the top grade. He said the game was much more structured, faster, and more physical than the lower grades. He said although it tested him, he enjoyed the game. Making his debut even sweeter was the Cowboy’s 38-34 win. Watching on were Brock’s father Peter and grandfather Michael who were certainly proud of his performance.

WOMENS HOCKEY MASTERS SUCCESS Congratulations to the Warwick ladies who played in the Women’s Masters championships at home at the weekend. The team can hold their heads high after playing five games on the grass. They may not have come away with a medal but considering the team only came together an hour before their first game it was not a bad effort. The team had plenty of support from the large contingent of supporters from the Warwick Hockey Association. It was a great weekend of hockey and showcased the Warwick Hockey Associations outstanding facilities. The event brough hundreds of competitors from across the state to Warwick. While there were quite a few bruise and bumps and injuries not one competitor suffered frostbite. In the Division One final Mackay defeated Tweed two-nil. The winners of Division Two Ipswich (2) defeated Bundaberg (1) two-nil. Tweed (2) won their Division Three final beating Gold Coast (2) to earn a promotion to Division two next year. While Division Four was decided by a shootout between Mt Isa and Gold Coast. The honours finally ging to the ladies from the Isa. In Division Five Toowoomba (2) defeated Brisbane (5) two-nil.

SUCCESS FOR DIPPLESMAN AND LAWLER The Warwick East Bowls Club was another club in the district to hold the final of their Self-Selected pairs competition at the weekend. Congratulation to the winning duo, Peter Dipplesman and Chris Lawler who had a comfortable 30-15 win. The opening round of the ladies’ singles competition was also decided last Saturday. Margaret Wright and Shirley Alcock will go head-to-head in the first semi-final this Saturday after Margaret defeated Gloria Brady 23-11 and Shirley Alcock had a 23-15 win in her game against Lynn Collie. In mixed social bowls last Saturday one game of triples and three games of scroungers were played. The overall winner was Dan Hughes, runner-up was Ed Diery with Johnno Johnson finishing third. Rob Alcock assuaged his disappointment at losing the pairs final by collecting a portion of the jackpot, $111. It is the first jackpot win this year. This Saturday the first games of the selfselected triples will be played. There will also be the normal mixed social bowls for those not involved in competitions. Play begins at 1pm.

Bruce McAllan read the conditions best and posted a good total to outscore Richard McKillop. In the Standard Class one of the new shooters in the club Joe Wood did well but it was Gary Snelling who claimed the win. Bob Tyllyer was successful in the SporterHunter class.

STANTHORPE BOWLERS MADE OF TOUGH STUFF The is a well-known quote “Neither snow nor rain nor heat or gloom of night etc….” that after last week applies to not only the Postal Service but could equally apply to Lawn bowlers especially Stanthorpe bowlers. Brian Brown and Frank Gallo played the final of the Stanthorpe Men’s A Grade singles in appalling conditions last Saturday. Ray Rankin, who acted as marker for the game reports that despite the conditions the game was of the highest standard. Brian Brown led for the first 12 ends before Frank Gallo took over. From that point they almost matched each other end for end. It was Gallo who clung on to win the title and trophy 2522 in an enthralling game. Congratulations to both players on a fine exhibition in such testing conditions and of course thanks to Ray Rankin who could have been in danger of hypothermia. The only other brave souls to challenge the conditions were Gordon Gallaway and Peter Smith who played a game against Robyn Smith and Wendy Hurnall. The game resulting in a win to the boys. As a result of the recent wintery conditions a decision has been made start games at noon during the winter months to avoid the long shadows on the green and the chill of the late afternoon. A special shout out and thank you to the

RANGE RUNNERS HEAD TO LEYBURN FORREST The Leyburn State Forest, west of Warwick, will be the venue for Sunday’s (20 June) Orienteering event which is being organised by Toowoomba’s Range Runners Club. President of the club, Felicity Crosato, said the forest was first mapped in 2007 when it was used for the Queensland Championships. Competitors then and since, have enjoyed the open, runnable nature of the terrain and the challenges of navigating in its complex watercourse systems. “We are expecting a good turnout of orienteers from across the Darling Downs to Sunday’s event, including junior members from across the region, particularly those in the Darling Downs schools team,” she said. “As well as the courses we will have for our regular competitors, Sunday’s event will also have short, easy courses for beginners and there will be instruction available on the basic map reading and navigational skills,” Mrs Crosato said. “Anyone interested in trying Orienteering is most welcome to attend. No special gear is required although sturdy footwear and a hat are recommended. Compasses may be borrowed at the event.” Starting times will be between 9am and 10.30am. The assembly area for the event will be signposted off the Leyburn – Forestry Road which can be accessed via Thane off the Cunningham Highway or from Leyburn. For further information, please contact 0427 523 541 or visit www.oq.asn.au/events.

BIG DAY OUT FOR UNDER NINE’S The weekend was an exciting time for the Stanthorpe Gremlins Under 9’s. It began with an early start, not just the kids but the adults too, as they jumped on a bus on Saturday morning and headed to the Gold Coast. The team and their entourage were headed for CBUS stadium. During the halftime break in the game between the Titans and Roosters, the team got to run on to the big stage and play a mini game against Clarence Coast Magpies Junior Rugby League. It was a huge thrill for the kids and also the bigger kids as they got to rub shoulders with some of the superstars of the NRL. A big thank you to the Gold Coast Titans for inviting the kids back this year and making some dreams come true. It is a great initiative. A big thank you also to Benbullen Downs for their support in the fund raising stakes and of course the parents who made the trip. Who knows perhaps in years to come we will learn this trip inspired the next James Tedesco or the like? Continued page 34 Thursday, 17 June, 2021 TODAY 33

HILTON AND MAUGERI CUT FOR WIN Sporters enjoyed a much milder morning last Sunday with the back nine being played on the day. Dick Hilton and Angelo Maugeri returned the best scores (26) at Sporters on Sunday morning in Stanthorpe. A cut of the cards determined the winner went Dick’s way much to his pleasure. Angelo collected the runner up prize but there was good news for him as keeps his handicap. Brendon Barker’s summer outfit did not affect his golf (it may however have put a few others off their game). Brendon picked up the prizes for the run down with nett 28 and the lowest score of the day. 40 for the nine holes. Max Smith easily won the packet of chips for the encouragement award. He wasn’t present but when he remembered he had forgotten his golf cart he was able to collect his chips for This Next Sunday the front nine will be in play with tee off at 8am. Of course that timeslot will again be determined by the prevailing weather conditions.

The Cowboys moved to outright second on the Hutchies A Grade ladder after their round nine win over Highfields bumped the Eagles to third on a very congested leader board. It was another gritty performance from a Cowboy’s side that faced plenty of challenges. They had players unavailable due to injury, players forced to play out of position and lost one of the key men, Ben Sullivan during the game. On the upside debutant Brock Patti was exceptional as were the Reserve grade players who with players missing stepped up. Brad Morrish took over eh hooking role replacing Sullivan and did a great job. After Tyrelle Ross posted first points Cowboys supporters had plenty of anxious moments during the game. Highfields skipped out to an 18-4 lead in the first half. Tries to Mitch Watson and Jake Speed late in the half put the Cowboys back in the game and at the break it was 18-16. The visitors hit back in the second half

and despite a Mitch Wilson try and another to Tyrelle Ross the Eagles led 30-22. The Cowboy’s were without Ben Sullivan who was injured in the first half and the loss of five eighth Matt Marshall caused a reshuffle in the second half. Prop Josh Cruice was another forced from the field after suffering a head knock. The Cowboy’s faced plenty of adversities but showed their never say die attitude. Captain Mick Bloomfield was once again inspirational. A great individual try in the 66th minute and the successful conversion by Brad Morrish who replaced Ben Sullivan saw the scores tied up at 34 all. Bloomfield then had a big hand in the match winning try. With four minutes remaining a Bloomfield pass found its mark in a trailing Alex Donn. The second rower crashed his way over the line to put the home side in the lead when it mattered most. Donn was consistent all game and was named Man of the Match for his effort. While Mitch Watson and Mitch Wilson again played well this was an excellent all-round performance by the Cowboys with some of their most inexperienced playing their part in what Coach Matt Grew said post game it was a very pleasing win. “We had a lot of boys step up today. “We had a few come up from reserve grade.” Young Brock Patti made his A-grade debut after playing a full game of U18’s and he was exceptional.” Warwick now sit in outright second on the ladder and move at step closer to cementing a berth in upcoming Madsen Rasmussen Trophy. Alex Donn picked up three points in the Webcke Price Medal. Highfields’ Darcy Maroske two points and Mick Bloomfield one point. Warwick 38 (Tries: Tyrelle Ross 2, Mitch Watson, Jake Speed, Mitch Wilson, Mick Bloomfield, Alex Donn. Goals Matt Marshall 3, Brad Morrish 2) defeated Highfields 34 (Tries :- Conor Nolan, Jarrod Lee, Sean Hamel, Tom Hatch, Kyle Betros, Cory McGrady. Goals Pat Templeman 5) In other games Highfields defeated Cowboy16-6 in Reserve grade. Highfields also had a win in a close Under 18 game. The final score 26-24.

WATTLES SCORE BIG WIN Wattles scored a 50-12 win over Souths Tigers at Gold Park on Sunday. The win puts the Warriors in equal third spot with Highfields on a very congested leader board. Wattles’ Matt Christensen, Braydon Wilson, Andy Richardson, and Brendon McBryde each score in the 10 try drubbing of the Tigers. Brendon McBryde has been in excellent form in recent weeks and earned three points Webcke Price medal points. Joe Mua received two points and in a beaten side Matt Gainey (one point) was one of the Tigers best. Wattles 50 (Tries:-Matt Christensen (2), Braydon Wilson (2), Andy Richardson (2), Brendon McBryde (2), Kai Duggan, Michael Pearson. Goals:- Matt Duggan 5) defeated Souths 12 (Tries:- Tate McCormick, Matt Gainey. Goals:- Matt Gainey 2) Wattles also had a 34-8 win in Reserve Grade.
