Noosa’s tourism operators have been dealt another devastating blow with a snap lockdown during the school holidays.

Noosa Mayor Clare Stewart urged the community to stay calm and follow the latest COVID restrictions in place for Noosa and the south-east.

“Our community has done a tremendous job during COVID and this latest three day lockdown is another wake up call for all of us,” she said.

“It’s important we remain cautious and follow the Queensland Health directives.

“This means only leave home for four reasons which are available on the Queensland Health website and if you do need to leave home then please wear a mask and adhere to all other Covid safe measures.”

Cr Stewart acknowledged the three-day lockdown during school holidays was potentially the worst-case scenario for the local tourist industry.

“These are uncertain times for all of us and our tourism businesses are the first to bear the brunt of this evolving COVID situation, however we need to unite and support each other and that includes buying local where we can,” she said.

Cr Stewart called on the State and Federal Governments to provide additional support to all businesses in the wake of the latest lockdown.

“Our operators are under pressure both financially and emotionally and the lockdown will again shatter the confidence of many business owners,” Cr Stewart said.

“I understand the reasons for the decisive action from the Premier and it’s important we take this seriously,” she said.

“If you feel unwell or have any symptoms, please get tested.

“Testing is absolutely essential to ensure that all positive cases are captured as early as possible. So please check the list of exposure sites and follow Qld Health directions.”

Tourism Noosa CEO Melanie Anderson said they are asking all visitors to Noosa to abide by the requirement and either stay in a lock down state in their current accommodations or return immediately home.

“This news is a devastating blow to our industry, and incredibly bad timing considering it is the school holidays, but we are at a critical point in this COVID outbreak, and we all need to follow the health advice,” Ms Anderson said.

“Ideally, if anyone is feeling sick, I urge you to get tested and help prevent a full blown outbreak - which would be a tragic turn of events for our industry. “For our industry operators, please ensure that you refer to the Queensland Government Health website for advice, and Tourism Noosa will continue to send updates as soon as we know anything.

Tourists mask up in Hastings Street on Tuesday.

“In the meantime, for the next three days, take a break from cooking and lining up at the shopping centre and consider supporting our local restaurants and cafes and grab some take away food.

“Our food and beverage industry will no doubt appreciate your support.

“Whilst Noosa won’t be inviting visitors to our region for the next couple of days, we are all very hopeful that the pre-emptive action by the government will pay dividends and we will be back to ‘COVID normal’ as soon as possible.”

The lockdown began 6pm Tuesday and con-

Noosa residents can only leave home for one of these four reasons: 1. To buy essentials such as groceries or medications 2. Work or study if you can’t do either from home 3. Exercise in your local area 4. Healthcare or to provide help, care or support Masks are required whenever you leave home.

A number of free COVID-19 testing clinics are open across Noosa.Sullivan & Nicolaides offers covid testing at a number of clinics across Noosa. 4Cyte operates a Walk-In clinic for covid testing at their 22 Doonella Street Tewantin clinic. To know other sites, visit Queensland Health’s website.

LNP leader David Crisafulli in Noosa on Tuesday.

Call for help Queensland Government Opposition Leader LNP’s David Crisafulli visited Noosa on Tuesday ahead of the COVID lockdown to say it was time small business owners had a support package from State Government during a lockdown.

“People are crying out for certainty,“ he said. Mr Crisafulli said he had just spoken to a cafe owner at Cooroy who had $1000 in perishables in his store that he would have to destroy if the government called a lockdown.

He said a support package would make a big difference especially in service and tourism industries and it was something other state governments were providing to small business.

CCIQ echoed the Opposition Leader’s sentiments calling for COVID-19 Hotspot Recovery packages to support small business in lockdown CCIQ is calling for payments of up to $25,000 for affected businesses to cover loss of stock and trade and support the reinstatement of business operations after the package was first proposed during the March greater Brisbane lockdown.

Chamber of Commerce and Industry Queensland policy and advocacy general manager Amanda Rohan said unpredicted lockdowns and restricted business activity would inevitably create challenges for businesses including significant long-term recovery issues.

Ms Rohan said businesses needed targeted support to cover their losses and give certainty

during a lockdown, similar to support already provided to COVID-impacted businesses in Victoria and Western Australia.

“This is the third lockdown for Queensland businesses and the second without a support package in place after JobKeeper eneded,”Ms Rohan said.

“We know the immediacy of a snap lockdown creates significant operational issues for businesses forced to close, and can take a significant amount of time for businesses to recoup or in some cases even maintain an ability to stay in business.”

A survey of businesses during Queensland’s last lockdown in March showed average expected business losses from a three-day lockdown could amount to $65,000 for medium sized businesses.

Even smaller businesses expected a threeday lock down could cost them on average $12,000 to $58,000.

“Half of those surveyed called for a nationally consistent framework to support business planning and certainty, while nine in 10 businesses expected a loss of revenue due to booking cancellations and ongoing implications on consumer confidence to impact their revenue,” Ms Rohan said.

“We’re calling on Minister for Employment and Small Business and Minister for Training and Skills Development Di Farmer to support business and the proposed package which is aimed at providing a safety net for businesses as well as certainty and support to continue.

Here we go again. Another school holiday, another COVID scare, another blow to businesses, more isolation for people living on their own and restrictions on visiting our loved ones in nursing homes and hospitals and even in their homes.

There go the picnics on the river, outings to fun activities.

If you’re a working parent and you’ve organised your holiday-work routine you may be feeling an unease about how to juggle working from home and entertaining the kids all day.

Work may have to wait while you fill your days with walks along the beach or country trails and bicycle riding to tire them out or take the opportunity to have a break, read a book or spend some time idle. Boredom is good for young minds. Creativity thrives the less you have to do.

There’s been no one in Noosa diagnosed with COVID in the recent scare, at least so far.

Keep telling yourself it’s only three days.

With luck if we all pull together, again, Saturday will bring a return to almost normal and after another week we’ll have almost forgotten it happened.

In other happenings next week is NAIDOC week with the 2021 theme ‘Heal Country’. Cooroy Butter Factory Art Centre will celebrate the occasion by hosting an exhibition of local indigenous artists.

Take the time to have a look at their exhibition showcasing emerging and established First Nation artists connected to Gubbi Gubbi country alongside the works of Jandamarra Cadd and Uncle Paul Calcott.

Shark cull documentary

By Abbey Cannan A documentary which sheds light on the real story behind the controversial coastal ‘shark safety’ programs in Queensland will soon be on show at Noosa Cinemas.

The film, ‘Envoy: Shark Cull’, features some of the biggest names in ocean conservation, such as Sea Shepherd, Ocean Ramsey and Madison Stewart, who bring their in-depth knowledge and expertise to decipher the issue.

Film director Andre Borell said he first became interested in the subject of shark nets due to his love of the ocean.

“I’ve been into ocean swimming, surfing, and especially scuba diving for a long time,” he said.

“When I learned what was going on off Queensland’s beautiful beaches like Noosa, I got really frustrated at our Government, especially once I learned it’s not even effective.”

Noosa Main Beach has two 180m long, 8m deep shark nets located about 80-90m from shore and three drumlines.

“This area is supposed to be a safe haven for wildlife but our state Government slaughter sharks and all sorts of other animals out there because they think that’s what the people want,” Andre said.

“I hope when the audience walks out of the cinema, they understand this shark culling program better, make their own decisions on its effectiveness or lack thereof, and reflect on all the better modern solutions our Government is completely ignoring.”

Respected police officer tragically killed by stolen car

By Abbey Cannan A police officer was tragically struck and killed by the driver of a stolen vehicle on the Bruce Highway on Saturday morning.

On Tuesday, homicide detectives asked for public assistance to help locate Skye Anne Wallis (pictured) who was suspected of driving the car which struck and killed Senior Constable David Masters just after 3am on June 26.

Senior Constable David Masters from Deception Bay police was dedicated to serving the Moreton Bay community. He also cherished his time as a proud member of the QPS Mounted Unit.

A joint statement from Queensland Premier Annastacia Palaszczuk and Police Minister Mark Ryan extended heartfelt sympathies to family, friends and colleagues of Senior Constable David Masters on their sad loss.

“Our thoughts are with all those affected by this terrible tragedy,” they said.

“Senior Constable Masters lost his life while protecting the lives of others.

“Police put themselves in the line of danger every day to protect us and keep us safe,

and today, tragically, they lost one of their own. With honour, he served.”

The search for the driver followed the arrest of a 24-year-old Morayfield woman, who detectives will allege was a passenger of the stolen car.

Police executed a search warrant at an Upper Caboolture address where they arrested and charged the woman with the murder of Senior Constable David Masters.

Police later discovered the stolen car burnt out on Quarry Road at Moodlu.

The 24-year-old woman has been charged with one count each of murder, arson (motor vehicle) and unlawful use of a motor vehicle.

Her bail was refused and she was due to appear in Caboolture Magistrates Court on Monday morning, 28 June.

The suspected driver, Skye Anne Wallis, is described as 170cm tall, Caucasian, with dyed silver hair and brown eyes.

Detectives are continuing their appeal for anyone with relevant dashcam or information regarding the matter to come forward.

Investigations by the Homicide Investigation Unit and Ethical Standards Command are continuing.

Child grooming offences in Caloundra A man has been charged with more than 30 offences relating to the grooming of a teenage girl he met online and allegedly supplied drugs to in Caloundra.

It will be alleged the 44-year-old man engaged with a 14-year-old girl regularly via social media between May and June, 2021.

Tragic drowning

By Margaret Maccoll A 26-year-old Brisbane man drowned at Peregian Beach on Monday.

He said police had been conducting a search and rescue operation for the man around the Peregian Beach area when the man’s body was discovered in the water about 1.30 pm.

“Unfortunately he’s taken his own life. It was not an accidental drowning,“ Snr Sgt Wirth said.

He said the family were distraught and police were trying to support them.

Llew urges State Government to fast-track Tiaro bypass Wide Bay MP Llew O’Brien has urged the State Government to fast-track the design for a four-lane Tiaro bypass.

This comes after Queensland Roads Minister Mark Bailey said it won’t be done until the end of next year.

“There was widespread shock and condemnation when Queensland Transport and Main Roads Minister Mark Bailey first said a four-lane Tiaro bypass wouldn’t be necessary for decades to come, so we all welcome his latest backflip to support a four-lane design,” Mr O’Brien said.

“His reversal is better late than never, but it’s taken a year of campaigning and more than 4,000 signatures on petitions for the State to finally do what it should have done in the first place and recommend four lanes.

“But Minister Bailey’s backflip comes with a catch - the State Government won’t finish the four-lane design that it should have put forward in the first place until the end of 2022.

“That means we may not see major construction until 2024 and that’s just not good enough. People are losing their lives and suffering serious injuries on this outdated and unsafe stretch of highway, and it needs to be fast-tracked and prioritised by the Queensland Government.

“If this road was in Victoria or Melbourne, with the same level of traffic as between Gympie and Maryborough, we wouldn’t be

Michael McCormack and Llew O’Brien. waiting until the end of next year just for the design - a four-lane highway would already be built and finished.

“The Palaszczuk Labor Government has got the wrong priorities and puts regional Queensland at the back of the queue. Its fo-

cus is on Brisbane instead of on our dangerous section of the highway.

“We can’t afford for the State Government to drag its heels any longer on the four-lane Tiaro bypass, like it’s done with other projects in Wide Bay, including the fully feder-

ally-funded $13.3 million Tinana overtaking lanes.

“On 12 January 2018, the State Government advised they were undertaking design work with construction to start at Tinana later that year - but major construction didn’t begin until this year, more than three years later.

“It was the same story with the Wide Bay Highway intersection upgrade at Bells Bridge - in May 2017 I announced $11.2 million from the Coalition Government to fix that dangerous intersection.

“But there was delay after delay by the State Government and it wasn’t until March this year, four years later, that work finally began.

“In January 2019 I announced $17.5 million to upgrade intersections along the Bruce Highway at Gootchie. Again, here we are more than two years later and work is finally beginning.

“The State Government’s poor planning and poor programming of these much-needed road works mean they have now all come on at once, knocking out overtaking lanes and clogging the highway, adding to fatigue and making a dangerous section of highway even worse.

“We have waited long enough, our funding is on the table, we simply cannot accept any more delays for the four-lane Tiaro bypass, the State Government must get on with the job.”

Trucks are not the issue

By Margaret Maccoll Long term hinterland residents have spoken out about their safety concerns for the Pomona Kin Kin Road, but don’t believe the issues are caused by Kin Kin quarry haulage trucks.

While the Kin Kin Community Group, Noosa Council and Noosa MP are working to reduce the more than 200 quarry trucks a day on the road, Ashley Spresser and Chris Fairless both agree they have no problem with the quarry trucks or the quarry and there are others in the community who shared their views.

“We don’t want to close the quarry,” Ashley said.

“We’re all concerned about the quality of the road. The extra traffic has caused problems with the road.”

Ashley has lived in Pinbarren since 1981 when he said it was a single lane dirt road that carried logging and dairy trucks.

“You always had to be very careful on that road. It was 100km speed limit. It’s a dangerous road. A lot of the problem is residents driving too fast.”

Ashley said he often comes across local drivers who have run off the road but not as a result of incidents with quarry trucks. “They’re professional drivers. They’re driving appropriately. They’re not speeding.”

Just last week there were two car accidents on Pound Road and Yurol Forrest Drive, Pomona on roads also used by gravel trucks, he said. And in June three kangaroos were hit and

Recent local crashes.

killed by cars between the bottom and Kin Kin range and Pomona.

Ashley has identified three main issues of concern affecting the road regarding cyclists, tourists and off-street parking on Factory St, Pomona.

“Noosa Council advertise Pomona Kin Kin Rd as a cycle route. The Queensland Cycling Strategy does not include Pomona Kin Kin Rd as a priority, nor does it include Yurol Forrest Drive,“ he said.

“You can’t keep cyclists off roads, same thing as gravel trucks but should Noosa Council have it as a cycle route? They shouldn’t be encouraging people on that road. It’s dangerous.”

Ashley said he’d been run off the road sev-

eral times by cars crossing over double lines on to his side of the road to overtake bicycles.

“In short, the main roads are not suitable for the activities that they are being used for, they need to be developed.”

Ashley believes the promotion of Pomona Kin Kin as a tourist drive also causes problems.

“We get a lot of motor cycle users on this road now. I am certain that a lot of the motorbike exhaust noise would not pass regulation,” he said.

“Motorcycles are making more noise than any quarry truck. Then there is the issue of increased tourism traffic on a dangerous road.

“What is the point with closing a Quarry only to replace it with tourism? It can be argued (environmental, social and economic)

that one is as bad and disruptive as each other.

It can be easily argued that tourism is no better to the environment than a quarry. On a social level the impacts are the same. For most of us that live here, we want peace and quiet, this is our home.“ Ashley’s third identified problem is the lack of legal parking along Factory Street, Pomona, (the street through Pomona leading to Pomona Kin Kin Road) that forces people to park on the footpath leaving little room for pedestrians and no space for mobility scooters. He said people reverse out of their properties into the traffic, line of sight is poor and there’s no safe place for pedestrians to cross. He believes the speed limit should be reduced to 40km/hr on Factory Street.

Chris Fairless agrees with the points raised

by Ashley and also believes the people who want the quarry shut down need to have another option.

He said the quarry was a legitimate business that had operated in the area before many opposing it had moved in, and most people had gravel or bitumen driveways made with gravel delivered by the quarry.

Chris said he wasn’t bothered by the noise of the trucks or their presence on the PomonaKin Kin Road but he had friends who were vehemently opposed to the quarry.

“I don’t want to get into conflict with my neighbours. It’s a difficult thing. I just think people have to have a broader view on things and have a look at how they drive,” he said.

Celebrating International Women in Engineering Day In celebration of International Women in Engineering Day, Unitywater hopes to inspire future generations to shape the world through engineering.

Unitywater’s women engineers, including Mansi O’Keeffe, Lucy Shoobridge, and Kelcey Miller, encourage norms to be challenged and for young girls to be true to themselves.

“I will pass on my parent’s advice to girls out there: ‘So what?’“ Ms O’Keeffe said. “Just because it has been a certain way, or you think it’s too hard, or you have been told you’re not allowed to ... ‘so what?’ as my mum and dad invariably replied. Followed by ‘what are you going to do about it?’”

“Do it,” Ms Shoobridge said. “There are so many different avenues you can go down. It offers such flexibility and transferable skills and allows you to work anywhere.”

“Be yourself,” Ms Miller said. “Being a female engineer doesn’t define you. You are female and you are an engineer. Don’t feel the need to change who you are to fit the mould.”

Ms O’Keeffe, who was born in India but travelled extensively across the globe due to her parents’ work commitments, said her engineering inspiration came from watching people in war-torn Middle East make the best of the resources that were available to them.

The Senior Technical Officer in her sec-

Mansi O’Keeffe ond year at Unitywater said as a young girl she watched people deal with water scarcity, grow produce in sub-zero temperatures, and not waste a single resource in any process.

“Despite the challenges they faced, these people were some of the most optimistic, content and caring people I have ever met in my life,“ Ms O’Keeffe said.

“They say necessity is the mother of innovation but engineering innovative, safe and cost-effective solutions to adapt to changing landscapes and for survival has proven equally important.“ Ms O’Keeffe said belonging to an organisation that provides the space of learning and growth is crucial for the journey ahead.

“We have remarkable leaders at Unitywater, who mentor, lead, and coach, and having that support makes a big difference especially in the difficult times.”

Ms Shoobridge, an Infrastructure Planning Unit Leader, said her inspiration to pursue engineering came from her father.

“He was an accountant by trade but an engineer at heart,“ she said. “Growing up there was a lot of time spent in the garage ’engineering’.

Ms Shoobridge, who has been an engineer for 16 years including three years at Unitywater, said her career highlight has been the opportunity to work on water and wastewater projects all across the country and the inspiring people she has met within Australia’s Water Industry.

A typical day for Ms Shoobridge is planning for future water and wastewater projects for Moreton Bay, Noosa and the Sunshine Coast.

“I love working as part of an essential service, within an organisation that has the community at their core,” she said. “I play a part in planning infrastructure projects that will be around to service future generations” Ms Miller said she wanted to become an architect, but she found engineering through her strengths in maths and science. The Treatment Services Project Engineer, who took part in the Unitywater graduation program in 2019, said she wanted a career that she could be proud of.

“It’s really rewarding working to provide for the community I live in,” she said.

“I loved seeing a platypus in the Obi Obi Creek out in Maleny, knowing that the work we do allows them to thrive. Platypus are hard to spot in the wild and are generally seen to be an indicator of good water quality and aquatic habitat.”

International Women in Engineering Day is an international awareness campaign celebrating the work and achievements of women engineers. It aims to help make our planet a better, safer, more innovative and exciting place to be through engineering.

The State Budget reveal There is “something for everyone“ Noosa MP Sandy Bolton said of the State Government Budget, after her first “trawl through“ the budget papers, but warns the devil is in the detail when it comes to how and where new funding allocations will be dispersed.

As the economy continues to struggle out of COVID entities such as Deloitte have suggested the Queensland Government’s Economic Recovery Plan drive private sector growth and jobs, despite the level of debt, she said “Due to record low interest rates, it is cheaper to service debt and borrow to rebuild - thus stimulating the economy even further,“ she said.Ms Bolton said while there not not specific announcements on Noosa wish list items such as community housing, Tewantin Bypass Stage 2 design, hinterland roads damage repairs nor scoping for the expansion of Noosa Hospital Emergency Department, we do have the funding pools announced including the $2 Billion Hospital Fund from which to access the funds required. “Meetings in the week after Budget will concentrate on these, and during Estimates,“ she said.

Noosa

Rise in rates and spend General rates are set to rise 2.9 per cent following Noosa Council’s adoption of its 2021-22 budget at a Special Meeting held on Wednesday this week.

The minimum general rate rise of about $44 to an annual fee of about $1557 includes a 14 per cent increase in the Environment Levy of about $8, a 33 per cent increase in the Sustainable Transport Levy of about $7.50 as increase of $3.50 in the Heritage Levy and an additional Fire Management Levy of $10.

Special rate and levy increases include the new Tourism and Economic Levy of about $2,900, a 340 per cent increase to $220 of the Noosa Water Lock and Maintenance Levy and a 90 per cent increase in the Noosa Junction Levy to $175.

The draft $153 million budget that was ratified on Wednesday included Noosa’s biggest ever capital works program, with projects totalling $47 million.

Noosa Mayor Clare Stewart said state and federal funding contributions for a number of

key projects had helped boost the capital program to become Council’s biggest ever.

“Big ticket items include the Tewantin Bypass stage one roundabout construction at $8.8m, $2 million to kick off the Noosa Parade corridor upgrade, $2.1 million to complete the new Peregian Beach Community House, and $7.5 million for seven bridge upgrades,” the Mayor said.

“This includes an initial $1 million towards the replacement of Garth Prowd Bridge at Noosa Heads, $1.47 million for the Lawnville Road Bridge at Black Mountain and $1.35 million for Kin Kin’s Wahpunga Lane Bridge renewal.

“In the hinterland we’ll spend $4.8 million to finish the Cooroy Hinterland Playground and just over $1.4 million to upgrade the Pomona section of the Noosa Trail Network.”

The draft budget includes a $5 million Road Reseal Program.

“Pomona’s the big winner in this year’s reseal program with School Street, Pottery Street and part of Pioneer Road all set for resurfac-

ing,” the Mayor said.

“We’ll be resealing 500 metres of Pender Creek Road at Kin Kin and Camphor Road at Pinbarren, while closer to the coast we’ll reseal the remainder of Gympie Terrace and renew the stormwater culverts within the road corridor. Works will begin this year.”

There are funds set aside to fit-out Noosa’s brand new mobile library vehicle, and $1.09 million for restoration of the Noosa Spit dog beach.

“With all the planning complete, we are currently in the approvals process. The project will repair existing geo-textile bags and use sand nourishment to strengthen the shoreline to bring this much loved community asset back to life in 2021/22.”

In addition to big-ticket works, Council will roll out a raft of smaller projects.

“Local skaters will be pleased to hear we’ve set aside $350,000 to replace the metal skate ramp at the Sunshine Beach skate park with a brand new competition-grade ramp.

“We’ve allocated almost a million dollars to fill the missing links in our footpath network across the shire including Tewantin, Sunshine Beach, Castaways Beach, Noosaville, Pomona and Cooroy.

“These links were all identified as part of the Walking and Cycling Strategy we developed with community input over the past year.

This is grass-roots spending at its best.”

Pathways connecting Maple Street, Overlander Avenue and the Bruce Highway overpass at Cooroy, as well as Moorindil Street, Poinciana Avenue and Toolar Street at Tewantin are among those to be built.

“We’ll also be upgrading the busy intersection of Doonella Street and Memorial Avenue at Tewantin to boost its capacity for the future.

“Importantly, we’re investing in forward planning to ensure we have designs and planning for future years’ capital projects ready to go to ensure a smoother and more streamlined roll out of new and replacement infrastructure in years to come.”

Year-round New Zealand Direct Air New Zealand flights are set to boost Queensland and the Sunshine Coast’s tourism recovery from the Covid-19 lockdown.

Minister for Tourism Industry Development and Innovation and Minister for Sport Stirling Hinchliffe has announced more international Air New Zealand flights are being added to regional Queensland airport schedules to support the Queensland Government’s Covid-19 economic recovery plan.

Mr Hinchliffe said year-round trans-Tasman flights had been secured for the Sunshine and Gold Coasts and Cairns.

“The deal we’ve sealed with Air New Zealand is great news for Kiwi travellers and Queensland tourism operators,” he said. ”By extending direct flights through to May 2022 from Auckland and Christchurch we expect to support almost 250 jobs and deliver at least $17million to Queensland’s visitor economy.

“The new flights add more than 26,000 seats to the flight schedules of three regional international airports as part of the Palaszczuk Government’s commitment to helping tourism to rebuild better.

“It’s part of our investment of more than $860million in direct support for the tourism industry’s Economic Recovery Plan.

“We’ve been able to move to year-round flights across the ditch because we’ve followed the expert medical advice to make Queensland

a safe travel destination.”

Member for Caloundra Jason Hunt said the Air New Zealand deal would be warmly welcomed by Sunshine Coast tourism operators.

“I know we’ll be rolling out the welcome mat for our Kiwi visitors who have always enjoyed the Sunshine Coast’s laid back family atmosphere and sandy beaches,” Mr Hunt said.

Member for Nicklin Rob Skelton said the new flights had great potential for the Sunshine Coast.

“With many New Zealanders having family and friends living on the Coast, these flights will make it even easier to plan a visit and beat the tail end of the Kiwi winter,” Mr Skelton said.

Member for Cairns and Assistant Tourism Minister Michael Healy said the extended flight schedule followed $10million in the Budget for securing aviation routes.

“Queensland’s Good to Go campaign has been screening across the ditch,” Mr Healy said.

“The iconic images of reef snorkelling and rainforests can be experienced in real life here in Cairns - within just a few hours of departing Auckland.”

Extended scheduled seasonal services with Air New Zealand include Auckland to Cairns, Auckland to the Sunshine Coast and Christchurch to the Gold Coast.

Air New Zealand general manager sales Australia Paul McLean said the airline is de-

lighted to be able to offer its customers yearround access to some of Queensland’s most popular destinations.

“In 2019, around 500,000 trips were taken from New Zealand to Queensland, and Air New Zealand flew around half of these customers,” he said.

“We know Kiwis love to escape to Queensland’s warmer climes during the cooler winter months, and many Australians already take advantage of the ski season in New Zealand.

For Queenslanders, extending to yearround direct services means good connections onto our domestic network and the chance to explore other parts of the country during the shoulder season.”

Sunshine Coast Airport chief executive officer, Andrew Brodie, said the announcement of a year-round service was a strong vote of confidence in the region.

“Today’s announcement delivers on a long-held ambition to secure Air New Zealand flights to Auckland year-round, and our new, internationally capable runway will allow the service to operate without weight restrictions,” Mr Brodie said.

Queensland Airports Limited chief executive officer Chris Mills welcomed the government funding, saying it would further boost services between the Gold Coast and Christchurch – offering more options and more com-

petitive pricing for passengers in a key market.

“We are seeing the trans-Tasman market gradually rebuild, as travellers become more confident, and aviation recovery funding will assist further with this,” he said.

“This comes as New Zealanders are looking to holiday somewhere warmer like the Gold Coast and Queenslanders are looking to book their next adventure holiday in the snow.”

Cairns Airport Chief Executive Richard Barker said the new year-round services would provide further opportunity to really grow connectivity between Cairns and Auckland.

“Year-round services will provide the opportunity to significantly increase the number of NZ visitors to the Far North every week,” he said.

“The support of the Queensland Government in securing these flights will encourage many of our friends across the Tasman to come and experience the magic of Tropical North Queensland.

“These flights are an important step in the support and recovery of the Far North’s economy.”

Before the pandemic, Kiwis contributed $600 million to Queensland’s visitor economy.

“Unforgettable Queensland holiday experiences have always been a favourite with New Zealanders,” Mr Hinchliffe said.

“Year-round flights mean Queensland is always Good to Go.”

Mary’s domestic cat scare a warning to others It was a regular Monday on Mary McLellan’s 22,000-acre family property in Central Queensland, until the family’s cat took a strike at her right hand.

Twenty-four hours later Mrs McLellan became violently ill - as a triggered response to the bite - suffering from high temperatures and delirium.

After being rushed to Gladstone Hospital, medical staff quickly identified she had sepsis - a potentially deadly blood infection.

“You could get that bloody cat to bite 100 people and they wouldn’t have got sepsis - it’s just rotten luck for my wife,” Mary’s husband Peter said.

“It wasn’t long until we were flown to Rockhampton Hospital. To control the infection, antibiotics were given to bring down her blood pressure, but that constricted her blood vessels in her hands and toes.

“I was horrified when her hands and feet turned black. Doctors told us Mary would die without the antibiotics. It was possible she could lose part of her fingers and toes.”

The 66-year-old’s condition worsened and she was then flown to Sunshine Coast University Hospital (SCUH) on May 17 where she was treated in the Intensive Care Unit.

Coming from more than six hours away in Calliope, Peter anticipated he would have to foot an expensive hotel bill during his stay.

Mary and her husband travelled six hours from Calliope to seek emergency treatment.

“I stayed in a hotel for the first week and then my daughter found out about Wishlist’s accommodation. The Wishlist staff had me up in a room at Wishlist House immediately and free of charge as I qualified for the Patient Travel Subsidy Scheme.”

“Wishlist House was a true blessing for me. I had my own modern private room, somewhere to wash my clothes, and the convenient location allowed me to be by Mary’s side in a heartbeat.

“There were some darker moments on

my own, which is why I’m so grateful for the Wishlist volunteers who always had a spare minute to have a chat and be a sounding board.”

Wishlist CEO Lisa Rowe said the charity’s affordable accommodation facilities - Reed House and Wishlist House - were filled with patients and families from Wide Bay and further afield.

“Wishlist House is our closest facility to SCUH which offers a ‘home away from home’ for both rural and remote Queenslanders, as

well as Sunshine Coast locals,” Ms Rowe said.

The growing demand for accommodation has led to the charity receiving a Federal Government grant to build Wishlist Centre opposite SCUH, with construction expected to begin in the coming months.

The four-level purpose-built facility will offer accommodation for patients receiving ongoing treatment and those transitioning to and from hospital.

“We are extremely grateful to the Federal Government and Member for Fisher Andrew Wallace for a $12 million grant to fund Stage One of Wishlist Centre, however more funding is needed for the fit-out.

“A further $2 million is needed by 2022 to ensure Wishlist Centre is all it must be for patients receiving ongoing medical treatment.”

Mary is now on the mend after spending a week in ICU at SCUH and is undergoing rehabilitation.

“Once Mary is given the all clear, we’ll be heading back up to our beloved farm. Even though our neighbours may be a bit further away compared to this part of the world, I’ll be the first to spread the word about Wishlist’s wonderful services in the community,” Mr McLellan said.

“I hope Mary’s story can educate and raise greater awareness of the dangers of sepsis - not only for those our age, but also young children.”

Dr Michael Gattas gives a lecture on DNA at the Heritage Centre in 2019.

Margaret Rickard and Di Renaldi at Guide Hut Open Day in 2010.

Celebrating 25 years The Cooroy-Noosa Genealogical and Historical Research Group is celebrating 25 years in July.

The group, often called “Genies” for short, began in 1996 when ten friends with a common interest in family history held their first official meeting on the veranda of one member’s home.

Two of the founding members, Betty Sutton and Win Wynn are still active.

The group has grown to a membership of over 150 and has had several homes over the years and now resides at its own dedicated building, the Heritage Centre, in Cooroy.

For many years, the group used space at the Cooroy Guide Hut, but with growing membership and accumulated materials including electronic equipment, it became clear that they needed a home of their own.

Ten years ago the building committee began their search for a suitable property, while many of the members stepped up their fundraising efforts for the building of the Heritage Centre.

The process involved many years of consultations with local and state governments, building planners, engineers and so on. Also, countless sausage-sizzles, garden plant sales, jam and chutney making group efforts contributed to fundraising for the building.

Such a large community building effort also attracted several funding grants. Some were government grants, but many came from other community groups. The Bendigo Bank, Cooroy Rag, Tewantin RSL and Noosa Heads Surf Club generously made grants towards the Heritage Centre.

Get smarter mortgage advice and the right loan for your needs

Eventually, almost $300,000 was raised to fund the building and after a five year effort the new purpose-built Heritage Centre building was dedicated in May of 2017.

Over their 25 years the group has served at least 700 members of the community, who have used the resources to research their family histories, find materials about community history, and attended a variety of workshops or talks about local history.

Local school children have been encouraged to learn about local and family history by participating in the Laraine Mahoney Writing Competition, an annual award for the year 6 students in Cooroy.

Members have compiled and published books, photo galleries and indexes of significant local history. There is a website with links

to resources and a facebook page with social news. All of this work has been voluntary.

If you are looking into your family history, you may come to the Genies to look up historical “Births, Deaths and Marriages”, or perhaps to find your grandfather’s war record or some ancestor’s immigration information.

There is a photographic record of every grave stone in the local cemeteries. You might access land records or attend a workshop to learn about DNA testing and how it is interpreted. There are always volunteers on duty, three days a week, to help newcomers with their research.

The Genies are having their “25th birthday party” on Friday 9 July. Current and past members are invited and can be in touch for further details by phone on 07 31290356.

Investing in life savers One of the largest independently operated and owned hardware suppliers in Queensland have invested in lifesaving defibrillators for all its stores including Noosaville, Gympie, and Cooroy.

Sunshine Mitre 10 general manager Neil Hutchins said the defibrillators were an investment in emergency health care not just for their staff, but also for the communities in which they operate.

“We have over 400 staff across our locations, and we take our duty of care very seriously so we have first aid officers at each location, and now we also have defibrillators which can help save lives for anyone experiencing a sudden cardiac arrest,” Mr Hutchins said.

“But it’s not only that, many of our stores are in regional and remote locations so by having a defibrillator on site, it also makes these lifesaving devices more accessible to the local communities.

“And while it’s a very big investment, if we can save just one life, it will be money very well spent.”

Mr Hutchins said over the past year, there had been a few incidents where staff had heart conditions and that together with hearing from White’s IGA owner Roz White about how one of their defibrillators had saved the life of a local rower, motivated them to act.

“These machines really can mean the difference between life and death, so we need more of them in the community.”

Mr Hutchins said Sunshine Mitre 10 had sourced the defibrillators from iHeart180, a company founded by Guy Leech in 2016, after he lost a mate to sudden cardiac arrest.

The spectacular 25 acres holiday accommodation property previously known as Honeybee Accommodation is now titled Honeybee Wellness Resort.

New resort for the Valley There’s a new venture in the Mary Valley with the acquisition of the spectacular 25 acres holiday accommodation property previously known as Honeybee Accommodation, now titled Honeybee Wellness Resort.

Newly appointed Resort Director, Jan Watt, said the operations commenced midMay under the new ownership and it was action stations establishing a new team and preparing the venue for a busy time ahead.

A $500,000 venue transformation will provide visitors with a state-of-the-art gym, luxury spas, saunas, massage rooms as well as boutique additions to the current booking offer. On-site activities such as pickleball, frisbee golf, basketball, yoga and meditation, massages, saunas, putt-putt golf, bush walks and giant chess provide lots to do for visitors staying at Honeybee Wellness Resort.

Mr Leech said while there was no nearby defibrillator when his mate “Chucky” had a heart attack and died, quick access to a defibrillator could be the difference between life and death.

“More than 500 people a week have heart attacks or strokes. Unless a defibrillator is put on you within about three minutes, you’ve got a 10 per cent chance of survival. The average time for an ambulance to arrive is 12 or 13 minutes,” Mr Leech said.

Mr Leech said the defibrillators were easy to use, with the machine giving instructions during use. He said they would only shock the patient if they needed to be shocked.

ing with a disability. Building an inclusive community at Honeybee, where clients can garden, grow their own food, assist with honey production, participate in horticulture, art and music therapy as well as undertaking training is all on the agenda.

“We will be focusing on ‘Buy Local’ by employing local people, buying local foods and using local products. We want to involve in the Mary Valley and Gympie community,” Ms Watt said.

“The Venue will be one of a kind in the Mary Valley and Gympie regions, offering the perfect country holiday getaway for families, group, corporate clients and an inclusive community for people living with a disability.

“Wellness Australia Group brings with them an outstanding ethos of excellence in their product and service provision as well as a genuine caring culture for their clients,” Ms Watt said, adding that she was excited to be involved with the group in developing their new Mary Valley venture.

Donations for Tiny Homes A significant donation of $50,000 made this week by local charity, Waves of Kindness, will pave the way for Youturn Youth Support to begin work on their Big Hearts for Tiny Homes campaign.

“Waves of Kindness are really proud to be partnering with Youturn to facilitate this Big Hearts for Tiny Homes project. By collaborating with local councils and a myriad of local agencies, Waves of Kindness is able to assist the local community through the proceeds from our Noosaville Opp Shop,” Waves of Kindness CEO Dan Riga said.

“We are so grateful for this generous grant

by Waves of Kindness which will allow us to surpass our target of one tiny home and pave the way for us to work towards a second one,” Youturn CEO Andrew Anderson said.

“Over the past 10 months since launching our Big Hearts for Tiny Homes campaign in August last year, we have worked tirelessly with our community and corporate partners to raise awareness and funds for this exciting project.”

Coast is experiencing a housing crisis, with extreme housing costs, social housing shortages, high rental competition and low average incomes. This can be a challenging place to live for many young people and many are experiencing homelessness.

“The reality according to the Australian Institute of Health and Welfare is that specialist youth homelessness services have insufficient beds to meet demand and they are forced to turn away one in two people who contact

them for help,” Mr Anderson said.

“To achieve our long-term vision of strengthening our community by tackling youth homelessness on the Sunshine Coast, we have set our sights on a substantial initiative to provide more access to stable housing for young people by raising funds to invest and build ‘Tiny Homes.”

The Tiny Homes will provide short-term, transitional housing to young people in need of homelessness support. After receiving help

to resolve crisis in their lives, a young person may receive ongoing social support and tenancy in a Tiny Home, before taking the next step to independent living.

“Due to the generous donations received from our supporters including Waves of Kindness, we are now able to commence our build in July for a September delivery. The first two Tiny Homes will be based in the Noosa Shire, and we are working closely with Noosa Council, who has been extremely supportive of this initiative, to secure suitable land for these Tiny Homes. We expect to receive final confirmation shortly and look forward to sharing this with you,” Mr Anderson said “Driven by the compassion and support of our community, our goal is to build Tiny Homes with a Big Heart. This Big Hearts for Tiny Homes project is a first for our organisation and one that we are truly passionate about, but we cannot do it alone. We are so close, but there is still work to be done. For businesses here in the region who are nearing their financial year end and inclined and able to support this cause, please reach out to us.”

State-wide road safety operation zeroes in on holidays Minister for Police and Corrective Services and Minister for Fire and Emergency Services, Mark Ryan MP joined Assistant Commissioner Ben Marcus to launch the Queensland Police Service’s annual winter school holiday road safety campaign, Operation Cold Snap.

This state-wide operation will be in effect until Friday, July 16 with an increased policing presence on all major roadways.

Minister Ryan said that the Queensland

Police Service would be out in force these school holidays.

“If you’re out on the roads and not adhering to the road rules, you can expect to see police,” Mr Ryan said.

“The operation will look to address preventable incidents, with seat beat wearing, fatigue and speeding at the forefront.”

“We are asking the community to help make this a safe and enjoyable break for all.”

average, each year 31 people were killed and 166 seriously injured on Queensland roads as a result of not wearing a seatbelt.

“Putting your seatbelt on when you get in the car should be second nature - it’s such a simple act that can significantly reduce the chances of a fatality in a crash,” Assistant Commissioner Marcus said.

“We have already seen far too many losses on our roads so as Queenslanders and their families embark on their holidays around the

state, we are urging them to take responsibility for their actions behind the wheel.”

Assistant Commissioner Marcus said road users could expect to see police anywhere, anytime, particularly around commonly used thoroughfares like the Bruce and Pacific Highways.

“This year is shaping up to be one of the worst on our roads - we’ve already seen 129 lives lost, which is 19 more than this time last year,” he said.

CEO celebrating 23 years

By Abbey Cannan The CEO of NoosaCare is celebrating 23 years of helping bring the goals of the founding members to life.

Although more than two decades have passed by, Megan D’Elton still loves arriving at work each day at the community based, notfor-profit organisation.

“To be in a position to continue the dream of the founding members who had a vision over 35 years ago to provide a safe and happy place to age and remain in the community is very special,“ she said.

“The founding members built a strong foundation for those to follow. I believe that I have respected their vision.“ Megan said when she first started in the role as personal assistant to the then CEO, she had no idea about aged care.

“My first day was 25 June 1998... In 2009 the board decided the time was right for a CEO position. I applied, there were four other candidates and I was successful,“ she said.

“Over the years I have been fortunate to have mentors. I am where I am today in my career because of how they have guided and supported me.“ Looking back, Megan said the aged care industry has changed immensely in her time.

“When I started the Aged Care Act and accreditation had just been legislated, every aged care provider all starting out on a level playing field,“ she said.

“In 2006, Carramar and Kabara merged, both boards wanted the organisations to remain community owned, and merging protected both from being taken over by larger providers.

“Combined, we provide care and services to over 229 residents, employed 383 staff, 100 volunteer base and purchase supplies from our local businesses.“ There are many achievements that Megan is proud of, but the most recent one being in 2019

“It was 4pm on a Friday afternoon. We put a call out over the internal speaker system, staff, residents and volunteers reacted with one purpose, to get every single resident out safely,“ she said.

“Over three hours we achieved just that. At

11pm a few of us walked around Carramar to lock up it was such an eerie feeling.

“For the very first time ever, it was empty.

Carramar was empty for three days before we received the all clear to return.“ Megan said she planned to continue to lead the organisation through the many challenges and changes as a result of the Royal Commis-

sions recommendations.

“Strategically, NoosaCare will develop assets and services to meet the communities needs,“ she said.

“We are researching how we can support the community with low cost rentals. It’s a desperate and urgent problem affecting so many locals right now.“

Too many children in need

By Abbey Cannan Despite the number of foster and kinship carers in Queensland continuing to rise, the rates of children in need of care still outweighs the number of carers.

According to new child safety data, the number of foster and kinship carers has increased to 5,792 families compared to 5,680 as at 30 September 2020 and 5,512 a year ago.This includes 1,655 first-time carer families who are helping to care for Queensland children when they can no longer remain safely at home.Recruitment Practitioner at Anglicare’s platform You Be You, Madallon Malancioiu, said it was very important for this number to continue to rise.

“The reality is that there are many, many children in need of out of home care,“ she said.

“The rates of children coming into foster care unfortunately outweighs the number of carers. This means that we need more people to help support our kids in our communities.

“Some families have different struggles and for many reasons, however we all know that it takes a village to raise a child, and that is why we need to build our community support.

“If you think about the increase, 807 children in Queensland needed a home between December 2019 to December 2020, yet we didn’t have 807 families who could assist.

“To help keep children safe, we need to stick together. If you’re unsure if what you need or whether you have capacity, please get in touch with our You Be You team as they will answer all your questions.“ Madallon said the Sunshine Coast is an amazing community and believes there are more foster carers out there who just don’t know it yet.

“Whether you are considering foster care or are involved with children in any capacity, our ability to positively impact the long-term development and outcomes of a child are immense,“ she said.

“Engage with them, play, sing, learn about different cultures and especially, learn how to best care for them and each other.

Crash test ad drives home importance of seatbelts A new road safety campaign showing the impact of crashing without a seatbelt has been launched following a spike in the number of unrestrained road deaths.

Transport and Main Roads Minister Mark Bailey said the hard-hitting campaign aimed to make risk-takers face the reality that without a seatbelt, they were far more likely to die in a crash.

“The campaign shows the real, violent impact of a car crash on belted and unbelted crash test dummies travelling at 40km/h,“ Mr Bailey said.

“The comparison of the impact on unbelted dummies compared to those wearing a seatbelt is shocking. You can only imagine how much worse it would be at higher speeds.

Mr Bailey said the campaign aimed to debunk the myth it was safe to travel unrestrained at low speeds or on familiar local streets and roads.

“Too many Queenslanders, particularly those in regional areas, become complacent behind the wheel when it comes to their seatbelt,” he said.

“They think because they know the road

well and/or there’s less traffic outside cities, it’s ok not to belt up.

“The reality is that a crash at just 40km/h has the same impact on the human body as falling from a two-storey building.“ Mr Bailey said drivers and passengers were about eight times more likely to be killed in a road crash if they were not wearing a seatbelt.

“Last year, 43 people who lost their lives in crashes were unrestrained, which is 14 more than in 2019 and 15 more than the previous five-year average.

“That’s 43 lives that may have been saved if only they were wearing their seatbelt. This is a tragic and preventable loss and it’s clear a stronger approach is required to get the message through.

“No one expects to be involved in a car crash but if you are, what matters most to your chances of survival and the severity of injury, is whether you are wearing a seatbelt.

“The message is clear - wear a seatbelt every time you are in a vehicle. Even at lower speeds or if it is a road you know well. Seatbelts save lives.“

A Bull roars into our town In this excerpt from Place of Shadows, PHIL JARRATT describes drug crim Barry Bull’s life and times in Noosa Between 1971 and 1981, the population of Noosa Shire increased by more than 220 percent - from roughly 7,000 to 17,000. “It was quite exciting,” says lawyer Bob Cartwright.

“People were coming to town – a lot of them from Victoria - and going, we’ve found paradise!”

Cartwright continues: “The builders and the other tradies were arriving and thinking, here’s a place I can make money. Legal services like ours were much in demand because of the new volume of property transactions. Noosa Heads in particular was suddenly full of people who’d just arrived, and it was the most unQueensland town in Queensland. It had the feeling of a boom town, even when the crashes came.”

But not every new arrival was a desirable one. Says Cartwright: “People were buying using aliases, mainly for tax purposes but also because some had dirty money, and most of it was cash. If you were a builder here, you could not get tradies who would work for anything but cash. The cash economy was rife. I remember a bloke from the tax office came into my office in the ‘70s and asked to see my wages book. As he left he said, ‘Do you realise you’re the only person in this street that has a wages book?’”

One of the undesirables who drifted into Noosa in the 1970s was Barry Richard Bull (also known as P.G. Adams, Barry Richards, Brian Hickson and R.N. Petersen). Born in Brisbane in 1943, Bull had been known to police since 1960, and associated with the drug trade since 1970. In 1974 he was convicted of a large-scale cannabis importation and from then on he was on a police watchlist of possible “Mr Bigs”.

When Bull sought refuge in Noosa a couple of years later, he was not as famous as he would

Picture: COURTESY NOOSA LIBRARY SERVICE PICTURE NOOSA become, but he soon joined the village’s cast of “colourful characters”, having established a Hastings Street hairdressing salon (Hairloom) with girlfriend Sylvia Lux, and hosting frequent

soirees for mysterious guests at his Sunshine Beach hideaway. “Let’s just say there were a lot of Porsches and BMWs driving up and down our dusty road to get to the only other house

on the street,” says journalist Jimmy O’Keefe, who grew up in Bull’s neighbourhood.

The one-time butcher told Noosa police he managed to get by on the profits from Hairloom and the odd day laboring on construction sites, but he could afford to engage the town’s leading lawyer. “Barry Bull was just one of many criminals, including rapists and drug dealers, that I acted for over a long period,” says Bob Cartwright. “He was an insignificant client for whom I did a few transactions and deals. I never associated with him.”

Nevertheless, Bull was to cause a considerable headache and embarrassment to Bob Cartwright when he found himself dragged into a voluminous chapter of the 1984 Costigan Royal Commission, courtesy of having represented the criminal in relatively minor matters.

By the time the Costigan Report was published, Barry Bull had long disappeared from Noosa and was soon on the run from a multimillion-dollar cannabis importation charge.

He was arrested in Austria in 1986, but daringly escaped from a prison van near Innsbruck when he jumped onto a motorbike being driven by eight-months pregnant Sylvia Lux. After serving a few more jail terms, he ended up back in Noosa (minus Sylvia) where he died in 2003.

Noosa students light up Glasshouse Christian College took out the top gong at the Sunshine Coast Telstra Innovation Awards on 23 July for their creation LEDPlates.

LEDPlates has the potential to provide learner drivers a bright new way to display their ‘L’ plates, along with a compatible phone app to change the plates as needed from L’s to P’s.

The team, comprising students Arno Mens, Charlie Bidgood and Josiah from Glasshouse Christian College and led by School Coordinator Tanya Cullen were thrilled with the result.

Second place was awarded to Sunshine Coast Christian College students Joshua Morgan, Noah Simpson, and Rain de Beer for their on demand portable locker service Mobile Safety Hub, for use in popular areas (beaches, sporting events etc).

AquaShield created by Kia Pulo, Ethan Bland and Byron Page from St Andrew’s Anglican College came in third for the proposal to revolutionise the use of shark nets with a new alternative and sustainable design.

2021 Telstra Innovation Awards winners.

The Emerging Entrepreneur Awards went to Glasshouse Christian College student Ebony Quinlan for Heart Attrack - a wearable ECG monitor for cardiovascular outpatients.

These outstanding students will share in $10,000 worth of technology prizes for their

school including tablets, headphones, mentoring sessions and a 3D printer.

More than 20 finalists across Years nine, 10, 11 and 12 on the Sunshine Coast got together with their school mates to create an application or invention as part of this year’s Sunshine

Coast Telstra Innovation Awards.

As part of the program, the students were mentored by some of the sharpest technology minds and entrepreneurs in our region to help the students develop and refine their ideas.

The competition, which is delivered by Sunshine Coast Council in partnership with Telstra, brings creative ideas to life while connecting students with industry mentors to develop their entrepreneurial thinking.

Sunshine Coast Council Mayor Mark Jamieson, who has been a champion of these awards since their inception and was part of the judging panel, said all entrants in the awards program were outstanding and their innovative ideas reflected the great talent and innovation that we are nurturing here on our Sunshine Coast, particularly with our children and young people.

“The awards program supports the development of ideas that use technology in a novel way to solve a community, environmental or business challenge,” Mayor Jamieson said.

Students create therapy equipment for Butterflies Noosa students have created two important pieces of therapy equipment for local charity Sunshine Butterflies.

Community service is a very important component of Good Shepherd’s Service Learning unit.

All Year 11 students are given an opportunity to select a service project that is of interest to them as part of their Curriculum Support program.

As part of their selected unit, a group of students designed and created a Sensory Board and PVC Pipe Instrument.

Both pieces of equipment were installed in the play area at Sunshine Butterflies ‘Our Backyard’ a 5-acre unique community facility that offers inclusive facilities, activities and services for the entire community.

Head of Design Technology at Good Shepherd Joanna Waites said, “The students really enjoyed their recent visit and it was great for them to see their sensory board and PVC pipe instrument integrated into the vital work that is undertaken at Sunshine Butterflies.”

Located in Tewantin, Sunshine Butterflies

is a disability support service and charity and strives to improve the lives of those living with disability and their families.“Students applied their design technology skills to benefit others in the community,“ Ms Waites said.

“The challenge was to come up with ideas for the sensory board that would really engage the children using the services and programs.

“It was great to observe the students discuss their options, implement their ideas and to see the great results.“

Grants and Community Development Manager from Sunshine Butterflies Lucy Mills said, “The PVC instrument is a series of musical pipes which the students have adjusted so that each pipe makes a different musical note when you tap on it with your hand or a stick.“ “The team did such a great job, we absolutely love the equipment.“ The College hopes the children at Sunshine Butterflies will enjoy the two pieces of equipment as much as the students at Good Shepherd enjoyed producing them.

MORE QUESTIONS ABOUT DENTURES ANSWERED Q: Dentures last a lifetime – don’t they? So, why do I need to replace them?

Denture teeth wear over time, causing difficulties in chewing your food properly.

This can lead to digestive problems. You may find it becomes embarrassing to speak and socialise. Excessive denture tooth wear may upset the jaw mechanism, causing clicking, popping and pain in the jaw joint.

The acrylic base (pink material) deteriorates over time, becomes brittle, picks up stains and harbours bacteria, leading to bad breath. Worn dentures exaggerate wrinkles around the mouth and cheeks causing you to look prematurely older and un-natural.

A path to zero emissions

By Margaret Maccoll With only five years remaining to meet Noosa Council’s zero emissions target by 2026 Council’s Carbon Reduction Officer Annie Nolan provided an update on progress at Noosa Parks Association’s last Friday forum.

Annie, who has worked on the project for the past four years, said project was progressing on two fronts - climate action and climate mitigation.

In 2016 council put into place the Carbon Emissions Reduction Policy to look at its own emissions before showing leadership for the community, she said.

In the same year Zero Emissions Noosa (ZEN Inc) established itself to lead the charge for council to include the community in the 2026 zero emissions target.

In 2017 Noosa Council joined Cities for Power Partnership, a network or more than 140 local governments working together for climate change.

In 2019 Noosa Council declared a Climate Emergency, joining a move that began in Victoria that took on the advice of scientists that aiming for zero emissions in 2050 was “not good enough“.

But with state and federal governments lagging behind, council’s 2026 target requires state and federal governments remove barriers for them to achieve their goal.

“At the local level is where climate change is happening,” Annie said.

She said under council’s Environment Strategy climate consideration had been incorporated into every council action.

So where do council’s emissions come from?

Electricity use, vehicles, destruction of vegetation, purchasing and by far the greatest emitter, landfill.

Using a carbon accounting standard measurement Annie has completed council’s carbon inventory or footprint. The measure includes items purchased that take into account the carbon created during both pro-

Annie Nolan provides an update on Noosa Council climate action. duction and transportation.

Council’s annual emissions equate to about 55,000 tons of carbon dioxide (CO2) and the community emissions have been estimated by ZEN to be about 500,000 tons of CO2.

After determining the cause of emissions Annie’s role has focused on its reduction by working on projects aimed at energy efficiency and the use of renewable energy.

To date 628 kilowatt producing solar panels have been installed on council buildings and facilities including the Cooroy and Noosa libraries and Noosa Leisure Centre.

Annie said the renewable power has resulted in a 50 per cent reduction in the use of coal-fired power. “$500,000 has been saved in electricity since

the panels were installed three years ago,” she said. “The cost of the systems are paid back in four years.”

Some changes that are more difficult to make are behavioural with Annie both encouraging and shaming people into “turning everything off” at the end of the day.

But by far the biggest challenge for council is landfill which makes up 60 per cent of its emissions with organic waste producing methane which has 25 times the global warming potential of CO2.

What is council doing about landfill emissions?

“We made green bins available to residents.

We extract landfill gas. It gets sucked up to a flare where the gas is burned changing meth-

ane in to CO2 which is less potent,” Annie said.

“We’ve been installing more pipes to extract more landfill gas increasing extraction by 50 per cent on the previous year and we have looked at generating power from the gas.” But by far the reduction in green waste before it gets to landfill is preferable, but that requires the action of residents and education on waste reduction.

Next steps on the project are to look at emissions from council purchasing and the generating of offsets of carbon emissions as well as a continued focus on electricity and transport including the installation of more electric vehicle charging stations and public transport options.

“We have made some progress but we have a fair way to go to get to zero,” Annie said.

Ageism is a drag on the economy: campaign is rushing to retirement does not stand to scrutiny. The latest data from the COTA Federation last week showed only 49 per cent of those over 65 had retired, down significantly from 2018 when 60 per cent were retired.

The reality is most older Australians are living longer, healthier lives and they want, or need, to work longer. So what’s holding them back? Ageism.

“The IGR notes that the increased participation rate amongst older workers in recent years has been supported by greater life expectancy and better health, as well as greater work flexibility. But further gains are missed because of ageist recruitment processes and workplaces. Too many older workers want to work, but miss out because of negative as-

sumptions based only on their age.

“37 per cent of Australians have experienced discrimination since turning 50, and that’s up from 23 per cent in 2018. 26 per cent have experienced employment related discrimination. If we want to maintain funding for essential services and infrastructure we need to lift the labour force participation rates of older people who want or need to work.That means we have to address ageism at its root - the stereotypes, assumptions, and discrimination that currently lock older people out of work.

“The IGR has found pretty much all participation increases over the next 40 years will come from people above the age of 40.Those projections will be hampered if we

do nothing about the ageism that keeps keen older workers jobless. We simply can’t afford to continue carrying around ageist notions about older Australians. These mindsets are holding us back.“ Ms Krasovitsky said the 2021 Intergenerational Report should prompt the federal government to invest in a program to start lowering the rates of ageism and age-based discrimination in Australia.

“We need a sustained public and workplace education campaign to challenge the myths and negative attitudes about older people in the workforce,“ Ms Krasovitsky said.

“We know that multigenerational workforces are good for business and raise productivity.“

12496091-SN26-21

The new Intergenerational Report (IGR) has projected Covid will make Australia’s population smaller and older than earlier predicted, but that need not be a problem if we can take real steps to end the blight of ageism, according to the EveryAGE Counts campaign.

In launching the IGR, Treasurer Josh Frydenberg said the government remains committed to funding essential services while maintaining a sustainable tax burden.

EveryAGE Counts campaign director Marlene Krasovitsky said the key to achieving these goals is making a concerted effort to fight ageism.

“Ageism is now a huge drag on our economic growth,“ Ms Krasovitsky said.

Tales of trauma recovery

By Margaret Maccoll Powerful, emotion-charged stories of horrors experienced in their working lives, the nightmares and emotional breakdowns that followed and their journey to recovery silenced the crowd at a veterans forum at Tewantin last Saturday.

Wide Bay MP Llew O’Brien and Major General John Cantwell kicked off the Healthy Mind - Healthy Body Wellbeing Forum hosted at Tewantin-Noosa RSL with the honest sharing of their PTSD experiences.

“Mental health has been a big part of my professional life,” Mr O’Brien said. But his experience was not the type of mental health issue some politicians come up with to explain bad behaviour, that he detests.

Mr O’Brien said he grew up in a “normal life”. When his mother developed motor neurone disease he left school at grade 10 to become her carer. His mother passed away in 1989 shortly before he met his “beautiful wife”.

Mr O’Brien thought serving the community would be his ambition and wanting to be a good role model for his kids at 27-years-ofage he decided being a police officer would be a good fit.

In 2001 he wanted to bring down the road toll. It was a personal mission after having lost loved ones in car accidents. After completing a course he was assigned to a stretch of Bruce Highway between Gympie and Cooroy, the most dangerous stretch of the Bruce Highway at the time.

“I was the officer who got called out in the middle of the night when two cars came together and someone was dead,” he said. “I had to tell the families, go to the autopsy, to court.

The accidents were getting more and more. I was getting numb to it - that was my way of coping. One day I went to a double fatal, going at high speed, lights flashing, heading down the highway at 160km/hr. I wasn’t feeling anything at all. Shortly after that the nightmares started.”

One day as he stopped at traffic lights he looked at the tail lights of the car in front. They were identical to those at a fatal accident he had recently attended and he just froze. “I had a complete panic attack,” he said. He started imaging the people in the accidents he attended were his own kids.

“One morning I couldn’t get out of bed,” he said. “I put my hand up and started a new life. I left work. I wasn’t going back. I was never going to be a policeman again.”

Mr O’Brien started getting fit, riding his bike. He went to see a psychiatrist.

“There were times I had to go to hospital - a mental health clinic. I thought I’d really hit a new low, that I should be ashamed. But that’s as bad as a diabetic going to a clinic. You need help.”

After a couple of years he returned to work as a policeman.

“It was one of the biggest battles of my life,” he said. “Now I know my limits. I know how to manage myself mentally.

“My recovery was my greatest personal achievement.”

Mr O’Brien recounted his actions in opposing his political party in its aim to vote against a Royal Commission into Veteran’s Suicide.

“Voting against your party is like a cardinal sin,” he said. “I told the Prime Minister’s office I’d be crossing the floor. I was strongly criticised. I was told if I took that step it wouldn’t be good for me.

“I tell you what’s not good,“ he replied. “It’s when someone takes their own life. Try to tell the family“.

One hour after he’d spoken up the government changed tack, announcing the establishment of a Royal Commission.

“The government is spending a lot of money but what you’re doing as individuals is what motivates me,” he told guests.

Major General John Cantwell said his experience echoed those of Llew O’Briens and after he started speaking publicly about PTSD he had met as many policemen, ambulance officers and firefighters as veterans with the condition.

Cantwell began his army career in 1974 as a private. After spending time in the ranks he studied to become an officer. Attaining the rank of Major at the age of 35 year he was attached to the British Army based in Germany

Major General John Cantwell. in 1990 when Sudan Hussein invaded Kuwait.

A coalition of 30-odd countries wasn’t going to let that happen so their forces got together to kick the Iraqis out of Kuwait, he said.

“It was exciting to go to war,” he said. “I was very well trained and I wanted to try those skills out. I wanted to show I could operate in combat.”

Cantwell said in the first Gulf war the coalition massively overmatched the Iraqis.

“We absolutely destroyed them in an intense air campaign - 60,000 Iraqis were killed, hundreds of thousands injured. I had no idea there was any such thing as PTSD. “I had some extraordinary experiences.

(The Allies) used bulldozer blades attached to tanks to bury the Iraqis alive - hundreds and hundreds of people. In the aftermath I could see some that had tried to escape their fate. You could see a hand coming out of the sand. Something in my head said you’re going to remember that hand. A lot of other things went on. I found myself in precarious positions. I had some close calls. I was obliged to walk through a minefield, deal with numbers of Iraqis dead, mostly burnt, ghastly scenes.”

When he returned to Australia he’d become something of a novelty with Australians having had little combat exposure since Vietnam.

While some people said “well done” others made derogatory remarks. “They decided we were just a bunch of killers,” he said.

“The nightmares began - I was being buried, the hand, the bodies, the mass graves. I was freaking out. I had no idea what was going on. No one had told me about emotional troubles. In the back of my mind I remembered something about battle fatigue, shell shock. I judged myself a weak loser. I thought I was losing my mind.”

Cantwell said colleagues began to see he wasn’t on his best game and convinced him to see a medical officer. Less than helpful the army-appointed psychiatrist he saw told him to “harden up and think happy thoughts”.

“I was disgusted by this and said to my wife, Jane, no-one will ever hear this again.”

For the next few years he “soldiered on”, presented a happy demeanour and rose through the ranks.

In his second Iraqi deployment as a Brigadier he witnessed a lot of violent and horrific death during combat between Iraqis Sunnis, Shia, Al Qaeda, insurgents, criminal gangs. “It was inhuman. It did a lot to destroy my belief in human nature,“ he said. “I came home same story.”

On his return he saw a psychiatrist not attached to the army he said “helped a little”, but he wanted to advance his army career, so kept

Wide Bay MP Llew O’Brien his mental health issues hidden.

In 2010-11 he was deployed to Afghanistan in charge of the Middle East operation.

“In three months that year 10 soldiers were killed and 64 wounded - many explosive amputations, multiple limbs lost. It was pretty awful,” he said.

“I came home in 2011 and I was done like a dinner. I was on the short list for Chief of Army. I rang (Air Chief Marshall) Angus (Houston) and said I’m sick. He said what can I do to help. That was the start of a journey of recovery. I had the chance to get good quality assistance - that was life changing. I don’t know if I’d be here without that. I recognised finally I couldn’t do that on my own. I spent time in a residential facility - that brought it home to me I was really messed up.”

When Cantwell eventually opened up about his issues some people were angry he hadn’t asked for help, others openly derided him, including politicians who used parliamentary privilege to call him “an alarmist and a sook”.

After retiring from the army in 2012 he

travelled widely speaking to assist others with PTSD. “The message I was carrying was it’s normal to have abnormal events affect us. If you’ve seen terrible injury, death, your mind is going to react in normal ways, processing them, working on you when you’re asleep, driving the car.”

Cantwell said medication often helped but he knew a lot of officers who shied away from medication because taking it would exclude them from using a gun or operating equipment. He asked the audience if that was more important than your family and kids - the people who love you.

His parting advice, just as Llew O’Brien’s, was to seek help.

“If you are struggling just think about the people who love you,” he said. “They want you to be your best. You’ll probably never be the same again but there’s no reason to let that dominate your life. Get medication. Don’t get on the grog, stay away from the dope. Just live your life.”

Meet The Great Donovan PHIL JARRATT enjoys a coffee with the man who went from hypnotist’s assistant to playing leading roles in arts and tourism.

In October 1967, a Kiwi named Frank Harry Quinn, known to his mates as Pat, but to his sell-out audiences around Australia and New Zealand as The Great Franquin, started what was to be his last tour as a hypnotist with another packed house at Brisbane’s Her Majesty’s Theatre.

It might have been Franquin’s swansong, but it would turn out to be a new beginning for a young bank teller who had managed to snare one of the last tickets. When Franquin called for volunteers from the audience, Michael Donovan was up on stage before you could count to three, and not feeling in the least sleepy.

More than half a century later, the former chair of both Tourism Noosa and the original Noosa Biosphere Foundation, not to mention a dozen other high-powered managerial roles in arts and tourism, rocks back in his chair and laughs at the memory. “Being the sort of person I am, I didn’t hesitate,” he says. “Apparently I did the right things when asked and was funny and a bit outrageous, and at the end of the show he shook my hand and slipped a card into it, which was a free admission to the next night’s show. So I came back and did the same thing and he slipped another card into my hand, but this time it was an invitation to go backstage and have a drink with him.

“Backstage the Great Franquin said, ‘You seem to know how the system works, would you like to join the show?’ So I signed up to travel with the touring show for a year as the audience plant in New Zealand and Australia. I’d change my appearance for each show in a particular place, some nights without my glasses or wearing shades instead. I did what I was told, and I learned how to hypnotise people, even over the phone. I knew all the tricks of the trade. I could read someone’s bus ticket number blindfolded, but I can’t tell you how. I also learned how the backstage crew operated which years later when I worked for the Australian Opera gave me an understanding of the craft of the stage manager. I understood the physical demands of the stage as well as the artistic performance.”

Intrigued, I ask Michael what character traits Franquin saw in him that he might have taken into his later career. “I went with the flow of the show, realising that it was clever entertainment rather than fake. Whether I was actually hypnotised, I think I’ll keep to myself. But I also have always had a good sense of humour and a good sense of timing, and I think he saw 22 NOOSA TODAY Friday, 2 July, 2021

Michael Donovan. that too. In later life I can tell you that I never used hypnosis to get a deal done, but I did learn lip-reading and became very good at it, and used that throughout my corporate career.

It enabled me to look into a group of people from across a room and detect what they were saying about the conversation we’d just had, which gave me a slight edge.”

It was an edge that he took with him through a stellar career in theatre and arts management, culminating in him becoming NSW arts manager for the 1988 Bicentennial. In the 1990s he returned to his native Queensland with wife Carol and ran the Brisbane Convention Bureau and the Queensland Tourism Industry Association, among other roles, before relocating to Noosa, where he soon stepped into the evolving tourism scene, becoming chair of Tourism Noosa in 2006 as it transitioned from an arm of council into a stand-alone entity, funded by a council-raised tourism levy.

Although Donovan remained in the TN chair for the next few years, through a lot of rough and tumble within the board and then the pressures of the amalgamation years, he was often seen as a divisive figure, probably because he doesn’t suffer fools gladly, but usually softens the blow with a wry smile. (Like Franquin, I’ve always found Michael an amusing fellow, but I’ve also never been in a boardroom barney with him.)

Picture: ROB MACCOLL Despite the frequent turmoil, Tourism Noosa’s marketing initiatives helped grow the tourism economy rapidly towards a billion dollars, but Michael Donovan was already juggling his responsibilities there with chairing the Noosa Biosphere Reserve Foundation, a role that was soon equally steeped in controversy and bitter internal arguments. To add to the pressure, Donovan was also playing a leading role in local mentoring at Business Mentoring Noosa and had become chair of Eumundi Markets.

What very few people knew was that Michael’s juggling skills were increasingly hampered by a condition diagnosed after he had collapsed at breakfast in 2012. He says: “While all these things were overlapping, I was found to have a condition called Shy-Drager syndrome, a very rare thing also known as multiple systems atrophy or MSA. I was given five to seven years to live, and it’s now 15 years since I first noticed symptoms. So I’m winning the battle for now, but I can’t win the war.”

In recent years he has pulled back from business and community affairs, although he still conducts training courses in mentoring, and advises various boards. And last week he even found the energy to write an opinion piece for Noosa Today, suggesting that the tourism levy should not only be retained but broadened to include the real estate industry.

“Why are you picking on the poor real es-

tate agents?” I ask as we sit down for a coffee at Gibson’s, for which appointment Michael has motored 20 minutes from home on his mobility scooter. He chuckles heartily, he hasn’t lost that.

He says: “When you look at who should pay for tourism marketing, you need to work out who is part of the cascade of business that benefits from it, and of course it’s not just real estate, but the others are so diverse and so small that getting value for money out of the exercise is problematic, whereas real estate is an obvious one and you could extract a levy from each sale, with the buyer and seller both paying it. You could argue that we should all just pay the tourism levy, but it would be harder to sell than a transaction-based tax. The real estate churn is about 28 percent, so it’s a sizeable amount. That would be a good start. But our brand equity is well over a billion dollars and we all own it.”

He continues: “The funding model should be a collection of funds for fair use of the brand from as many businesses as possible, which is then put back into expanding and improving the brand. Noosa is looking tired. A lot of places need to be overhauled. Service staff need to have far better training, they need better employment contracts too. Australians think that servitude is debasing, whereas in America and Europe they take pride in excellence of service.

We need to get that culture into the Australian psyche. Now is the time to do it, otherwise Covid will be a waste of a good catastrophe. Now is the time to do things differently.”

Michael is also disappointed, if not despairing, about the direction the Noosa Biosphere has taken. He says: “I regard the years when I chaired the original Biosphere Foundation as some of the most satisfying of my life. All Biospheres are unique, each of them offering different things. Over the years I’d worked very hard to encourage green tourism, so that gave me a platform to structure the Noosa Biosphere along those lines. The model that evolved out of that had more than 70 people doing some extraordinary things, and what we were able to do in those first three years, UNESCO said we had achieved more than other Biospheres did in 20. I don’t think we’re using the real power of the brand of the UNESCO Biosphere. It could be leveraged a lot more.”

Michael, now 74, says he doesn’t let his condition dictate to him - as if anyone or anything ever could! “I’ve fought it and delivered for 15 years. It’s been a hard fight, but it shows you what you can do with determination.”

Is Noosa in good hands? “Probably, although there are still elements that are unnecessarily destructive and stupid. They should just get out of the way.”

THE DURRELLS ABC TV, 7.30pm

Based on the autobiographical novels of conservationist Gerald Durrell, this adorable serie is a sunny, lighthearted escape that courts its viewers to laugh out loud and marvel at the wonders of nature – and family life. Now in the third season, Keeley Hawes (The Bodyguard, left) is a delight as widowed Louisa Durrell, who moved to the idyllic Greek island of Corfu with her clan. Tonight, when Aunt Hermione (Barbara Flynn) dies suddenly, Louisa has to accompany her body back to England.

MOVIN’ TO THE COUNTRY ABC TV, 7.30pm

SATURDAY Amazingly, one in five city-dwelling Aussies are dreaming about packing up and moving to the country. And if we aren’t one of those folks who are planning on moving to the regions in the next 12 months, we watch shows such as Escape from the City like it is a national sport. Now, we can add this new six-part series, premiering tonight, to the watchlist. Hosts Craig Quartermaine, Kristy O’Brien (above) and Halina Baczkowski travel to a region to learn three stories about creating a successful life in the country. Tonight, Quartermaine visits Orana, NSW, and meets two lawyers who left the city to run a national legal enterprise – and invent a new species of cow.

CASABLANCA SEVEN, 2pm

Humphrey Bogart, Ingrid Bergman, Rick’s Café, “Of all the gin joints …”, Nazis, visas, a singer named Sam. Apparently, all these things add up to the best film of all time. They might be right. In a nutshell, Rick (Bogart) is a jaded nightclub owner in Casablanca, a town that plays host to various World War II refugees looking for a better life in the US. He discovers an old flame (Bergman) is in town with her new resistance leader husband, both on the run from the Nazis. Outstanding cinema from the classic era of Hollywood when audiences were actually considered to be intelligent.

What could go wrong when five comedians compete in an off-the-wall game show?

Well, as it turns out, nothing. Everything goes spectacularly, hilariously well in Taskmaster. A huge success in Britain, the panel show panel boasting some very batty banter has since spawned offshoots in Belgium, Sweden, Spain, Denmark, Norway, Finland and New Zealand. Hosted

by Greg Davies (below) and Alex Horne, it’s the sort of show that can make Monday a joyous affair. Tonight, settle in for a raucous double episode. In “This Is Trevor”, The Inbetweeners star Joe Thomas grapples with awkward hand-wear.

Then, in “Aquatic Sewing Machine”, coffee pots aren’t his friend.

Greg Davies is the host of Taskmaster.

LETTERS NOOSATODAY.COM.AU

Question of leadership It is obvious that Llew O’Brien’s delight at the return of Barnaby Joyce as Nationals leader and Deputy Prime Minister was not shared by all of his parliamentary colleagues in the Coalition.

Certainly, Morrison appeared stricken, while the deposed leader McCormack at least managed to put on a brave face for the press gallery.

But this did not prevent the bloodletting and grab for spoils that followed his departure.

We are left to ponder what Barnaby’s political resurrection will mean for unity within the Coalition government, which was well past its use-by date at the last election, but saved by the lack of a credible opposition leader.

The government’s problem now is the lack of a credible leadership team. Disunity is often fatal in politics and Barnaby appears to be doing his best to outmanoeuvre Morrison on key issues such as water policy, carbon emission targets and coal-fired power stations.

The danger of such posturing is obvious.

At the recent G7 meeting, the leaders of the world’s largest economies agreed to end government support for new coal-fired power stations by the end of the year, and agreed upon a firm emissions target date. Morrison looked a sad and forlorn figure when asked whether his government would follow suit. He could not even score a one-on-one meeting with Biden.

The idea that Australia can go its own way in the world by thumbing its nose at the G7 nations is quite fanciful and would normally not be entertained by any serious political leader or party. However, the latest ructions within the Nationals, together with Barnaby’s demonstrated capacity for erratic behaviour, may well raise doubt in the public mind as to the ability of this government to lead Australia through the hard times ahead. It remains to be seen whether Barnaby’s supporters and admirers will still be cheering him after the next federal election.

The safety of black I would like to reply to John Robinson letter, (NT 18/6) regarding people wearing BLACK. I agree wholeheartedly of what he had to say about cyclists, walkers, wearing BLACK. Impossible to see them. When I was still driving (not any more) I very rarely drove at night for that reason.

There was a dreadful accident last week, in the area of Forest Glen where a man was walking at NIGHT time, in middle of road, wearing BLACK, unfortunately driver didn’t see him, and now this poor driver will have this accident maybe subconsciously for rest of their life! AND it wasn’t their fault. I have mentioned this before ... ..cyclists ... .wish they would RING their bell when approaching behind a walker, on the footpath.

Coastal lifestyle vs big city life Visiting Noosa Farmers market on Sunday, the energy there on a chilly winters morning was impressive and why wouldn’t it be? Great offerings for breakfast, plenty of fresh, locally grown produce, happy people. One of the great reasons we all love living in Noosa.

28 NOOSA TODAY Friday, 2 July, 2021

Roz Clark took this photo on her iPhone on an early morning paddle last Friday. If you have a Lenscape please email to newsdesk@noosatoday. com.au cently is attitude. I overheard a conversation between two couples, recent southern arrivals who were complaining that they couldn’t get staff/contractors to work 6am to 5pm days, hours that ’in Sydney were standard.’

Have they considered why they have moved away from big city life? Was it for the beautiful surrounds and relaxed coastal lifestyle? Or was it to replicate what they had before? Have they considered why they might be facing issues with staffing here?In another conversation, a friend based in northern NSW complained about how the recent influx from the cities has affected their community; crowded, impatient drivers blasting horns, a dire housing situation and a general loss of that much loved ‘community vibe’.

Back to Noosa and one must ask; Is this where we are heading? And more importantly, Is this what we want?As a local business owner I agree that staffing is an issue we face in Noosa but forget the ’11 hour days’ problem when the biggest issue is finding somewhere for staff to live these days. A situation that has been created by the recent population boom and shift to owner occupied properties. Sadly many can no longer afford to rent and buying is simply out of the question. A happy community doesn’t come about through employers pushing their staff to work long hours, it comes from a supportive environment where

everyone can prosper and have quality of life.

The exceptional quality of life and standard of living that long time Noosa locals have created is a special thing to be embraced. The question is; how do we balance growth whilst preserving the good vibes.

Turkey on top Down on the farm and in a flap, Rooster McCornstack was stalked by the Big Red Turkey for the pecking order position of Deputy Top Cock of the Chook Pen. A cock fight ensued but McCornstack was not woke to this set-up and was plucked. Fair dinkum.

Affordable Gympie I have noticed in the newspapers and the media the ever increasing house prices and rental shortages on the sunshine coast. People should look at the great town of Gympie just 40 minutes easy drive to the coast with great house prices and rentals. Why pay high rents when you can afford to buy your own home in this great town.

Rich rules Let’s hope that Council doesn’t have to allocate too much money/ resources, to find ’suitable solutions’ so they can implement the Coastal Hazard Adaption Plan (CHAP).

There are very few properties affected by this plan, compared to the whole of Noosa Shire, so let’s hope a few millionaire property owners aren’t dictating to Council.

I’m sure there are many other people who don’t like some of the planning decisions made

by Council, but simply don’t have the funds to fight it.

Party talk A sure sign recently that there was going to be a change in the National Party Leadership.

A leader who would be making sure our coal fields and coal-fired power stations were back up and running.

The back garden every morning is now afeeding ground for 18 “Miner“ (Mynah) Birds.

Can’t wait to see the damage they will do when they start nesting under the roof of The Lodge.

The Bolton Report Sandy Bolton, Noosa MP

All eyes on the budget As I trawled through some 14?? separate documents that comprised the Appropriations Bill for 2021/2022 I asked myself late one night in my delirium what really is an ‘appropriation’?

A definition from the famous Dr Google says - the action of taking something for one’s own use, typically without the owner’s permission.

The artistic practice or technique of reworking images from well-known paintings, photographs, etc., in one’s own work.

A sum of money or total of assets devoted to a special purpose.

Success in obtaining appropriations for projects Well, if we take the first definition, we may all be in deep trouble as we should never be doing anything without your permission!!

Though the reference to ‘the artistic practice or technique of reworking images’ could be translated to creative accounting? How I wish I could put a laughing emoji in here! However, let’s take number 2 for this purpose which if you look at the subsection of the definition is “success in obtaining appropriations for projects”, even if it incorporates large borrowings to do so.

To me a Budget, whether Federal, State or our own household, is taking what we earn, and spending this in the best way we can. To pay our bills, deliver good things for our family, resolve issues, and create the future we seek.

Just like a household budget, we can’t have everything no matter how much we may want, and when borrowing, we need to ensure the capacity to repay, and that what we borrow for

Noosa MP Sandy Bolton delivers multiple ongoing benefits through appreciation, whether as an asset, or initiative. So how do we as MP’s deal with Budget time?

Source the overall position from those stacks of papers, then trawl through line items with the grinding of teeth and bleary eyes. This

to find whether what your community needs and seeks is within, or what avenues are available through funding ‘pools’ to get the job done. Not easy, as the broader outlook needs to be considered in the ‘our’ moment’ and as heard at a pre-budget meeting, including from economists, needs to be made a lot simpler.

We had 3 highly experienced and knowledgeable panelists who covered multiple items, and the one that resonated was from former MP and Minister for Finance, Rachel Nolan. Her message was simple. That MP’s and all Queenslanders should be provided with government financials and budgets in a clear way that leaves nothing to misinterpretation or mistrust, including what the debt is for, and how will it be repaid.

In addition, for MPs during our induction, that education and training be provided in analyzing a budget and its ramifications in the now and into the future.

I did say in my Budget speech the ‘devil is in the detail’, and we as MPs, and communities, need to understand what the devil may look like as it can be shiny wrapping covering an empty box?

However, on the surface, this State Budget has something for everyone with goodies in those boxes, including for Noosa, and I have posted a summary to www.sandybolton.com/ noosa360 accessed by typing into the search bar ‘budget’. Through the Estimates process we will see what is beyond that shiny wrapper!

Until next time, enjoy this beautiful winter and your own budgeting?

Sun Shining on Kin Kin Zero Emissions Noosa (ZEN) has been tracking how different postcodes are moving towards the goal of zero community emissions for Noosa by 2026.

We drove (in an electric vehicle, of course) to Kin Kin, postcode 4573, to talk with Jodie Williams, owner of the renowned Black Ant Gourmet caf¨¦ and general store. Kin Kin is the Kabi Kabi word for the black ants in the area.

The solar on the roof provides over 50 percent of their power consumption and was paid off in four years. They’ve built a big barn area which gives them the ability to install extra solar, and LED lights are everywhere.

Jodie says, “Once we put more panels up then batteries will make sense and we can harvest and store energy, so that’s exciting”. Jodie exudes her passion for sustainability and talks about dealing directly with local suppliers because, “It’s fresher, tastes better, and keeps the money locally.”

From their garden they harvest spinach, garnishes, herbs and flowers, while they recycle coffee grinds and food scraps from the caf¨¦ to use as compost, and the ducks and chickens eat some too.

Customers get keep cup discounts, and story cards in the bathrooms make people aware of water use, not just while they’re there, and Jodie’s confident they take the message with them when they leave.

Jodie says they’re always looking at ways to save power, whether it’s finding a recipe that needs less cook time or using a raw product.

She’s seen the business grow and in spite of COVID, they’re back on track as if nothing had happened, and are thankful for the great support from their customers, who obviously like what they’re doing.

Because of COVID they turned their home into short term letting. Mayan Luxe Villas is a holiday place for people who would normally

be going overseas but want something that is a little bit different.

Jodie says, “It’s a sustainable home, made from rammed earth and recycled timber. My partner, Brett Gowley, designed and built it.

No heating is needed, no air conditioning, no paint, no insulation, no plasterboard anywhere in the place. It shows that you can be sustainable, and you can still have luxury.”

The 30kW system was installed in 2017, and their new one will be three times the size, and she’s getting some for the farm too, as well as batteries. Before solar her power bill was about $9,500 a quarter. Now it’s around $4,000. Repayments were $800 a month and now that she’s getting busier and it’s paid off, it’s time to upgrade.

We asked Jodie about her message for others, and she told us, “Look into it, research it, do the figures, crunch the numbers. You’ll be surprised. It’s amazing. You save money as well as doing better for the planet. It’s been a great decision for this business. It was a commitment. I had to borrow for it, but there were a lot of people putting their hand up to finance it, so that’s not really a hurdle, in my opinion.

The extra solar will be financed too, but the money that I’m saving is going to pay for the new system. It’s a no-brainer”.

In Kin Kin over 40 percent of residential dwellings have solar, and it’s estimated that 43.6 percent of electricity used comes from renewable sources. Kin Kin folk are frugal energy users. There’s been a 26 percent reduction in household consumption over 10 years, and they now have the lowest in the Noosa area by a considerable margin.

Further details can be found at zeroemissionsnoosa.com.au/4571 Next time we’ll visit the Peregian and Marcus Beach parts of postcode 4573.

It’s raining Jen The long-range forecast is for fun, flashbacks and fashion when ABC’s revered weather presenter Jenny Woodward brings her one-woman stage show to The J Noosa.

Weathering Well is a potted history of the life and times of the popular presenter who chalks up 35 years with the national broadcaster in 2021.

Combining comedy, live music, video projections and a killer script with Jenny’s natural wit and charm, Weathering Well is an 80-minute autobiographical theatre experience with a high probability of intriguing anecdotes and

behind-the-scenes revelations.

“I’m also going to talk about hairstyles and fashion and how they’ve changed over the years and I’ve got some fairly startling photos which I am going to share. There’s a lot of, “oh my God, what was I thinking?!” Jenny revealed.

“It won’t be all about me! Australia has some really interesting weather history and there’s one particular character I’m going to spend a bit of time on, Clement Wragge, who was one of the founders of weather forecasting in Australia.”

While the spotlight is firmly trained on the

first lady of meteorology, Jenny will be joined on the stage by Jake Bristow on keyboard, underscoring the show.

“I think having a live musician on stage will give the whole show a more theatrical edge,” she said.

“Oh, we might have a little sing at the end!

It’s the kind of thing I don’t think people would expect me to do.”

The show will take place on Thursday 26 August from 7.30pm.

Tickets to Weathering Well are on sale from $49. Visit www.thej.com.au/weathering-well/

Connect with nature at The Art Hub Cooroy

Nicole Allen enjoys being creative and feels grateful for the opportunity of showcasing some of her art works within the local community at The Art Hub Cooroy.

The Art and Sculpture Gallery at The Art Hub Cooroy will be exhibiting the amazing creative artworks of Nicole Allen and Carol Forster.

Nicole enjoys being creative and feels grateful for the opportunity of showcasing some of her art works within the local community.

Her connection with nature, especially the ocean, became a focal point over the years as she navigated her way through the ups and downs of life.

Being a true romantic at heart, she felt inspired to share her love story as captured by contrasts of colour on canvas.

Carol started her career in the mid 70s with a focus on painting and printmaking.

After discovering clay in her final College year she fell in love with the numerous mediums and processes involved in making artwork to

be held, admired and used.

Carol said, “Experimenting and learning new techniques, and seeing what I can do with clay is always exciting for me.“ Her sculptural and functional pieces have been exhibited widely and form part of both national and international art collections.

Her passion for sharing knowledge saw Carol embark on her teaching career inspiring adults and children in Brisbane and the Sunshine Coast to create artworks in different mediums.

The works of art in this exhibition reflect Carol’s love of the coastal and rural landscapes enjoyed on the Sunshine Coast.

Visit The Art Hub Cooroy during this amazing exhibition until 23 July at 3/2 Emerald Street Cooroy. For more information call 5447 6155.

Little Seed roars on stage Hakuna Matata! Watch the savannah come to life as Little Seed presents The Lion King Jnr in Eumundi this school holidays.

More than 100 million people worldwide have enjoyed Disney’s The Lion King - the story of a lion cub’s triumphs and tragedies on the road to claiming his rightful title as King of Pride Rock.

First staged on Broadway in 1997, The Lion King is the most successful musical in theatrical history. Featuring the brilliant music of Sir Elton John and Tim Rice, The Lion King has played to more than 100 cities in 20 countries.

This retelling of Disney’s family favourite builds on a strong body of work from Little Seed’s Intermediate Musical Theatre class.

“We are really coming of age with this musical and are proud to be investing in our younger cohort,” says Little Seed’s Creative Director Johanna Wallace.

Many of the seasoned actors, aged between

The Lion King by Little Seed 6 and 13, have performed in Little Seed’s productions over several years, including Madagascar Jnr in 2020 and Sherlock Holmes and the Baker Street Irregulars in January.

“Expect colourful costumes, dynamic performers and larger than life characters.”

The Lion King Jnr is directed by musical magician Connie Groves, with choreography by El-

lie Oster and acting coaching from Tania Nash.

Lighting plays a central role in the production. The lighting design was conceived by Nathaniel Knight, a former Little Seed student now in his third year with QUT studying lighting design.

Ms Wallace promises regular audiencegoers will see both familiar and new faces. The roles of Simba (Xavier Vass and Will Graham) and Nala (Grace Henderson and Hannah Boreham) are played by two actors, reflecting the maturing characters as they progress through the story.

“We have a huge concentration of talent on the Sunshine Coast and the future of the performing arts is very bright.”

The Lion King Jnr will be staged at the Eumundi School of Arts Hall on Friday 9 July and Saturday 10 July at 2.30pm and 6.30pm. Book your tickets online: https://www.little-seed. com.au/

Oriana choir does Abba The Sunshine Coast’s premier vocal group, Oriana Choir, will present Dancing Queen, a tribute show featuring the best of ABBA and Queen August 14 at The J in Noosa and August 21 and 22 at Venue 114, Kawana.

These two icons of the seventies have created a body of timeless music. Their creativity, vitality, dynamism, exciting live presentations and sheer song-writing brilliance remain unparalleled. Their much-loved songs are performed and enjoyed the world over.

“These two bands gave us so many fantastic songs,” said Oriana President Melissa Innes. “We’ve really enjoyed choosing some of our favourites and putting together a show that’s sure to have something for everyone.”

Oriana is known for their exciting and colourful revues and Dancing Queen promises to be no exception with Noosa audiences able to experience some Oriana magic this year too.“We’ve always been asked ‘why don’t you do more performances?’” said Melissa, “So this year we’ll also be presenting our show at The J.” With unequalled classics such as Bohemian Rhapsody, We Are the Champions, Somebody To Love, Mamma Mia, Dancing Queen, The Winner Takes It All, and many others, this show is certain to be a treat for music lovers of all ages.

Oriana is no stranger to the music of Queen and ABBA, having performed the

Oriana choir does Abba songs of both bands many times. With the 70-voice chorus conducted by Elisabeth Wallis Gaedtke and accompanied by a live band, the audience will be jiggling in their seats and tapping their toes in no time! Also performing will be the Sunshine Coast Youth Choir

conducted by Annie Wilson.

Tickets are available via oriana.org.au for the 7pm Noosa event at The J on August 14 (The J ph: 5329 6560), and for the 7pm August 21 Cabaret and 2pm August 22 matinee at Venue114, Kawana (ph: 0431 542 343).

Tucker With Trevor Restaurant Review

A treasure by the river Trevor Pepys reviews Noosa Waterfront Restaurant and Bar It needs to be stated at the outset that this business lunch was the result of a complete misunderstanding.

Believing that the high-ranking public official who had instigated it was therefore going to pay for it, Trev booked a waterside table at one of Noosa’s treasures, one that he has enjoyed in the past but that now that JobKeeper has vanished, his meagre salary as part-time, semi-professional restaurant reviewer simply doesn’t run to. House wine here, not bloody likely.

But that didn’t even enter his head as he strode into the Waterfront. Trev’s concern was that pothole at the end of the street, while the other bloke wanted to pick his brains about issues that could well influence the future of the shire, if not the world. It was an uneven playing field, so clearly lunch was on him. However, a verbal agreement, as you will know, is not worth the paper it’s written on, and by the time we’d whet the whistle with a couple of Heads of Noosa Japanese Lagers ($9) and ordered a bottle of Pizzini King Valley Pinot Grigio ($48), the high-ranking official was already committed beyond his pay grade.

“You know what? Let’s go Dutch,” he said, already tearing the verbal agreement into tiny invisible pieces. “Kleingeestig!” Trevor muttered under his breath, summoning up a distant memory of a night in a pop-up bar in the Vondelpark when things went pear-shaped, and hoping he remembered the right expression. But the official was usually good company, and in for a penny, in for a pound, as his big-spending ancestor Sam used to say.

And even on a grey, squally day, there are worse places to while away a couple of hours by the river than Andrea Ravezzani’s Waterfront. For starters, the place has good bones.

Originally extended from its hidey hole under the new James Duke Bridge by the great Pierre Oth, and turned into a lively bistro, the renamed Waterfront has morphed into fine dining Italian with an accent on local produce under chef-owner Andrea’s reign, and he’s done it well, although Trev could do without a bible of complicating choices in both wine list and menu, especially at lunch.

We ordered the pane della casa with extra virgin olive oil ($13) and an antipasto of vitello tonnato, consisting of thinly sliced veal tenderloin, Mooloolaba yellowfin tuna, mayonnaise and caper berries ($26) to share, and a couple of pasta dishes to follow – a risotto of carnaroli rice, porcini mushrooms, radicchio, and black truffle provolone ($26) for Trev, the spaghetti ala chitarra, with prawns and calamari amatriciana style, and sun dried tomatoes ($38) for the official.

“You do realise that your pasta is 50 percent

Waterfront exterior. Feel the serenity. more expensive than mine,” Trev pointed out.

“Yes,” said the official, “but you’re only paying for half of it”. That may have been food for thought, but Trev looked instead at what was on his plate.

The house bread was fresh and crunchy and the lightly-seared veal and tuna delicious, although for a share dish it barely touched the sides. Trev’s risotto was also delicious and too small, but fortunately when the official had to make a break for the little boys’, Trev was able to skewer a large portion of the piled high seafood spaghetti without him noticing, and it too was delicious, the slightly spiced amatriciana sauce hitting the palate like an invitation to close with a couple of cleansing lagers, which we did.

The verdict: Even sticking to the front third of the menu, it’s hard to get out of here lightly, but for service, ambience, and quality of simple dishes done just right, the Waterfront is difficult to beat.

Footnote: The official said he’d look into the pothole, Trev said he’d vote for cultural change, whatever that is.

Love Down Under, again

Mary Valley Rattler to launch inaugural ‘Murder on the Rattler Express’ mystery experience.

Murder mystery on the Mary Rattler Railways have always been the perfect venue for a rattling good murder mystery, and soon the Mary Valley Rattler will host its first ever murder mystery train tour, during which guests will need to uncover a murder most foul.

Passengers are encouraged to dress in their finery for the event on Friday 13 August, which will transport them back to Friday 13, 1920, when the glitterati of 1920s Hollywood are invited on board the Rattler Express for a gala soiree, only for a murder to derail the festivities.

Who did it? That’s where today’s Sherlock Holmes, Inspector Poirot and Miss Marple need to step in and detect the murderer amongst them.

Each passenger will become a character in the drama, and can dress accordingly. Everyone will receive a special name for the journey, along with event money to bribe or blackmail, and an ‘accusation form’ that they will use to smoke out the murderer.

The murder most foul will take place at Amamoor Station, and passengers in each carriage will be able to use the return journey to Gympie to hone their investigative skills for the big reveal over dinner. The clues will be everywhere.

A drinks cart will operate on board the Rattler, and a seated dinner in Gympie Station’s Rusty Rails Cafe will be where the murderer is revealed. There will be prizes for the passenger who solves the murder first, and also for best dressed and richest player as a result of their wheeling and dealing with the event money.

The Murder on the Rattler Express service will depart historic Gympie Station at 6pm on Friday 13 August, in a steam train that was in operation back in the 1920s. The Rattler will travel through to the historic village of Amamoor, where the Rattler is rotated on a restored turntable for its return journey to Gympie.

The meticulously hand-crafted carriages and the rolling hills of the Mary Valley will provide an atmospheric backdrop for passengers

as they seek to uncover the murderer within their midst.

Tickets are $195 per person, including the return train journey, a two-course alternativedrop set dinner at Rusty Rails Cafe and all the props required for playing the murder game.

Announcing the debut of Murder on the Rattler Express, General Manager of the Mary Valley Rattler, Micheal Green, said, “The romance of the rails brings back all those memories of glamour and glitz and we are looking forward to people dressing up, having fun and getting into the spirit of the occasion.“ “Our guests from around Australia continually highlight the fact that the Rattler reminds them of a golden era of steam trains, and with so few remaining in Australia, the Rattler offers a truly memorable venue for a 1920s-style murder mystery.

In the newest addition to her Love Down Under series, Queensland author Cynthia Terelst shares her interest in sustainability with her readers.

While the message is all about balance, because it is a romance novel, the theme is love.

Terelst has the utmost respect for farmers, knowing that without them Australia would not survive.

In Down The Rabbit Hole, opinions about caring for the environment are not forced upon the readers, rather readers are shown what can be achieved, while balancing the needs of farmers.

Terelst drew on her learnings from completing a Bachelor of Commerce with a major in Sustainable Business at the University of Southern Queensland and extensive research.

Many early readers have complimented her on the environmental aspect of her novel and her delicate handling of such a polarising subject.

Terelst said, “When I began writing my blurb, I introduced the main character as an environmentalist and was told that label would turn off a whole segment of readers, that it was too divisive.

The environmental aspect of my novel is just a part of the storyline, it is not the story.”

The story is the romance between two lifelong friends, Emily and Luke. Terelst introduces readers to a small cast of “exceptional three-dimensional characters” set in a fictional Queensland town.

Down The Rabbit Hole not only explores small town life but the complicated dynamics of family relationships. Bullying plays a big part in the story with a villain referred to as “the WORST and therefore a great character”.

“Romance authors always like to keep ideas fresh for readers,” Terelst said.

“Yes, we all know that there is going to be a happily ever after ending, but how the characters get there is always unique.”

From early reviews it is clear that the author has achieved this. Reviewers have said that Down The Rabbit Hole “is different to other books with this particular trope (friends to lovers)” and “I’ve never read a novel that utilised flashbacks like this, so I enjoyed that very much”.

Another way Terelst has put a twist on an everyday trope is how readers glimpse a side of small town life they may not have seen.

The small town in Down The Rabbit Hole is unlike others most authors write about. Usually, small towns have their quirks and news travels fast, but they are lovely little places that give off warmth.

In Alma, it is the opposite, the townspeople are horrible. Unlike most of Terelst’s novels, this town is completely made up. Her conscience would not allow her to base it on an actual town.

Down The Rabbit Hole is available in both eBook and paperback through Amazon, Ingram Spark and online retailers.

Signed copies are also available by contacting the author at cynthiaterelst@gmail.com

By Alan Lander It’s the first Sunday of the month - so it’s on again.

The Friends of Noosa Botanic Gardens invite you to experience free art and music in the gardens this Sunday, July 4 between 10am and noon.

There’s a whole mix of activity taking place in your gardens, so come along, get some fresh air, and enjoy the serene surroundings.

Local singer/songwriter Zac Gunthorpe will be playing guitar, mandolin and harmonica in the shade of the spreading poinciana trees.

And artist Beatrice Croft is inviting you to create ephemeral arrangements using nature’s own resources - withered or wilting materials from the gardens themselves - to create spontaneous and artistic imagery, to connect you with the moment of the day.

Registration is required for this: visit www. noosa.qld.gov.au/connectingnoosa.

The Shade Gardens will also be open from 9am to noon, for a really special horticultural experience.

34 NOOSA TODAY Friday, 2 July, 2021

Tewantin Noosa Garden Club members visiting the shade garden.

Dogs on leashes are welcome And just to ensure you can maintain that inner glow if the weather’s nippy, the Friends have organised a trial of a coffee van.

Make a day of it: bring a picnic and enjoy many of the sheltered seating areas or choose

the majesty of the Amphitheatre instead.

Noosa Botanic Gardens are located on Lake Macdonald Drive, about 4km from Cooroy township.

LIVE

Days of our bee hives Don’t miss this opportunity to see and hear an expert in their field explain the miniature world in an easy to understand manner. Author and presenter Michelle Gleeson (a.k.a. the Bug Lady) is the guest speaker at Friday Environment Forum on Friday 9 July.

Insects have roamed our planet for nearly 400 million years. During this time, they have colonised every corner of our globe and can utilise food sources and habitats that remain unattainable to other organisms. But what makes insects truly remarkable is the complex relationships they form with other organisms. Michelle’s talk will give the audience a closer look at insects

and their complicated relationships.

Come along to the NPA Environment Centre 5 Wallace Drive Noosaville where the forum starts at 10.30am and coffee is available at 10am. Before the guest speaker a film clip from The Nature of Noosa will be screened talking about the people and councillors who have helped to preserve the nature of Noosa. Cecily Fearnley will be present to add a few words of her own to this inspirational history. Visit https:// noosaparks.org.au/friday-environmentforum/ for more information and the registration link.

Hook, Line and Sinker Tackle World Noosa

Big fish on the horizon Well there had to be a break in the amazing conditions we all experienced last week. With the run up to Friday’s full moon the weather closed in and despite the rain it was a glass out day. A few anglers made the trip offshore to fish during the perfect overcast conditions.

This time of year bigger fish will become more active as the seas have swell and overcast conditions. This provides a level of comfort to fish as they are less visible to predators and more likely to feed hard.

Sunshine Reef is producing a mixture of plate size and bigger sweetlip and snapper.

These fish will hit just about anything you can throw at them. Now is the time of year when slow jigging presents great options and if after a rod you must look at oceans legacy rods.

For their price they take some beating and just keep going when others fail! Mid water some small cobia are on the prowl. They are a sucker for a floated pilchard on 4/0 gang hooks. Always use a small length of bait wrap as this keeps the baits in shape when thawed or can be cast off. Keep leaders around 20-30lb or lighter if you dare. Running three - five kilograpm estuary outfits and 15lb leader is a great way to fish and you really learn what your gear can do under pressure.

Reports from further offshore are limited this week due to the stronger westerly winds.

The bigger snapper, pearlies and even jewfish have been holding in the deeper waters.

Paternoster rigs loaded with mullet, pilchard and squid have been producing the fish. It is important to brain spike and bleed all fish you intend to keep. This ensures once on ice the flesh stays firmer and there is less blood in the flesh making for the best eating quality.

Check out the iki jimmie spikes we have for doing this.

Surf fishing has been a little quiet, but next week should see an improvement with the bigger swell creating new gutters. The run of mullet and tailor is due to show up with some reports from anglers of bite offs while casting slugs into the surf line. Small Arma slugs in the 30 gram range should suit lighter surf outfits.

Take a look at the pre-made Instinct wire traces as these help stop bite off’s from bigger fish.

Try around the first groyne and river mouth during the early hours of the morning before first light.

Estuary fishing is staying consistent this week with one twist. The biggest diamond trevally measuring the magic meter mark was landed in the lower estuary making this the largest on record for the area. Every once in a while big diamonds do show up in the river, but a fish of this size and calibre goes to show what a varied system Noosa really is. Beyond this specimen the continued run of bream, flathead, GT, tailor and golden trevally continues.

If you are a lure angler then these fish will hit

Marcus Locke won last week’s $100.00 Tackle World Noosa/ChaseBaits Fish of the Week prize with the standout 1.0m+ diamond trevally he caught and released in the Noosa River.

Pictures: WWW.FISHINGNOOSA.COM.AU just about anything as long as it is worked correctly. Using light leaders is a must as the water clarity is up making heavy lines stand out. We have a great range of the new Molix RT fork flex in all sizes. These baitfish profile plastics are a great flick bait sure to entice solid strikes from flatties and trevally. Bait anglers would do well with live bait like herring which are plentiful in the river right now. If you are looking to get into using a cast net then a drawstring is the best for Noosa as many areas are rocky. If you need help bring your phone and we will show you how to best throw one.

Freshwater still dominates with smaller bass coming from the lakes and dams. They are feeding up in prep for cooler months ahead which is often the spawning run. As mentioned in previous weeks wild bass and impoundment bass have the same natural urge to spawn. When this happens they gather in huge numbers and it can be like shooting fish in a barrel. Often deep down these fish respond very well to flashy jigs and blades. With many on offer be sure you crimp the barbs on smaller hooks as a hungry bass will swallow lures making removal very hard. A barbless hook makes life safer and faster and you rarely drop fish. A different lure of choice is the soft vibe. These often overlooked lures emit huge vibration and have the prefect baitfish look.

Miami masters world record holders.

Four remarkable women

By Brian Hoepper Four Noosa Masters swimmers returned recently from Brisbane, displaying their agegroup medals won at the intensely competitive Brisbane Southside swim meet. But their triumph was overshadowed by an outstanding feat of swimming prowess by four extraordinary women. With a combined age of 320 years,

the foursome smashed the world record for the 4x100 metres freestyle relay by a staggering 25.10 seconds! The Miami Masters members averaged 1 minute 40 seconds for their 100 metre stages, with the eldest - Denise Roberston (86) swimming 1:36.87 - a time that would be the envy of many swimmers half her age.

USC Spartans finals shot The only Queensland women’s team in the inaugural 2021 University Basketball League the USC Spartans - will contest the UBL finals at the University of Sydney on 13-14 July.

Coached by Vern Robateau, the Spartans UBL women’s team finished the season in the top four, boosted by early wins over two of the league’s strongest teams, La Trobe University and University of Sydney.

Captain Francis Donders combined outstanding performances on the court with her studies for USC’s Master of Teaching (Secondary) and her work and training commitments.

She was named the team’s Most Valuable Player at the USC Spartans UBL presentation night, after leading the way with season averages of 21 points, six rebounds and six assists.

USC Sport spokesman Jay McCracken said the team, based on campus at the Sunshine Coast, was considered an underdog from the first jump ball.

“They were the only Queensland team, the only regional university team and the newest and youngest university competing in the league,” he said.

“But they really created some noise in the first rounds, progressively improving week after week, and also growing together as a team off the court.”

State Aquatic Centre at Chandler, attracted a record 265 swimmers from 32 clubs. In that field of 32, the Noosa team of 19 swimmers placed a very creditable fourth in the total points score.

It’s clear that the COVID disruption of 2020 hasn’t dampened the enthusiasm or the performance of swimmers around the state. At Chandler, alongside the world record, there were 17

Meanwhile, the USC men’s UBL team, coached by Nathan Arousi, demonstrated great tenacity and sportsmanship both on and off the court.

“The men’s team gained one win but never gave up and showed true Spartan spirit,” Mr McCracken said. “They’re eager to bounce back and get to work for next season.”

Pete Dutkowski and his 1980 Porsche have raced in the Noosa Hill Climgs since its beginning.

Hill Climb roars into town

By Margaret Maccoll Professional racing driver Broc Feeney, 18, described his first run at Noosa’s Hill Climb as a short but intense one minute race that with its 14 bends across 1500 metres was exhausting.

“It’s surprisingly enjoyable. I’ll definitely be coming back,“ he said.

Feeney was not the only professional driver to be racing at the Hill Climb event on the weekend.

Supercar champion Fabian Coulthard took to the track for the first time, clocking the fastest time on Saturday with 62 seconds on a wet and slippery track.

Coulthard joined the Reed & Co team, event sponsors, which brought 14 cars to the track.

Their drivers also included motorsport team Triple Eight Race Engineering founder and managing director Roland Dane and Reed & Co’s Adrian Reed.

Noosa Hill Climb spokeswoman Kate Rider said the Noosa Beach Classic Car Club event had a strong driver representation with 130 cars on the track and a strong following of spectators.

The fastest time at the event was 55.27 seconds achieved by Warwick Hutchinson.

Regarded as one of the most challenging hill climb events in Australia the winter Noosa Hill Climb attracted young and old, newcomers and veterans.

It was the sixth hill climb for mechanical engineer and racing enthusiast Ryan Kennedy who loves the “fast, flowing corners“ of the track that he first raced as an 18-year-old and says it has greatly improved his general driving.Justin McCarthy celebrated his 81st birthday on Saturday while racing his 1925 Austin Seven, the only car on the track with a crank handle. Justin began his racing career at the age of 75 years but his collecting of Austin Sevens began decades earlier at the age of 17.

His weekend racer which the self-taught mechanic rebuilt over the past three months is his third Austin Seven. With both Peter Brock and Dick Johnson beginning their racing careers in Austin Sevens Justin believes he is in good company.

One of the original members of the club Pete Dutkowski has raced his 1980 Porsche at the hill climb since its first event and continues just for the “fun of it“.

For more car action the Noosa Beach Classic Car Club will host its Classic Car Show on Sunday 18 July from 9am to 3pm at the Mat Thornhill Oval, Noosa District Sports Complex, McKinnon Drive, Tewantin. The event is open to ’All Classics’ and local jazz band, Plan B, will be there to entertain.

Later in the year the club’s new event, Classica on Hastings will bring classic cars to Noosa’s tourist strip on 11 September from 4-8pm and the Spring Hill Climb will be on 2-4 October.

Punters crowded into the hotel to sample more than 40 craft beers on offer from the lineup of eight local breweries and enjoyed the live music and food.

The festival showcased freshly made brews from across the Sunshine Coast - Heads of Noosa, Copperhead Brewery, Boiling Pot Brewing Co, Moffat Beach Brewery, Sunshine Brewery, Brouhaha Brewery, Your Mates Brewing, and of course, Eumundi Brewery.

Don’t miss the 33rd Noosa Beach Classic Car Show Set to welcome visitors to another fabulous display of over 200 Classic Cars on Sunday 18 July at the Noosa District Sports Complex, Tewantin.

Car Show Director, Dave Dunwoody said, ‘We are well organised to welcome an eclectic mix of Rare and Prestigious Classic Cars to our Show.“ “There is always fierce competition between proud owners to take home a trophy.“ As a special treat this year, Priest Jewellers from Noosa Civic have donated quite a unique and valuable watch to be awarded to the ‘Best Car in The Show.’

They have trophies for several different categories and most of the cars will elect to be judged.

All visitors can vote and make their own choice for the special car that catches their eye, to be awarded ‘The People’s Choice Trophy.’

The sparkling chrome and polished paintwork reflects the passion of owning and the joy of driving a ‘Classic.’

The Show usually chooses a brand to call the marque but this year they have thrown open the doors to embrace ‘All Classics’ - so something for everyone to come and admire.

A live Jazz band, trade stands and good food will draw the visitors through the gates, so come along and bring all the family. There will be free parking around the Complex.

Club President, Mike Rider extends his thanks to Laguna Real Estate for stepping up as the Major Sponsor of the Show.

The 33rd Noosa Beach Classic Car Show is set to welcome visitors to another fabulous display of classic cars on Sunday 18 July.

Sunday leads to victory Sunday Moore won an enthralling match on the 17th hole at Gympie on Sunday to give her Noosa Springs team of best friends an upset win in the final of this year’s zone junior pennants competition.

And, in beating her opponent Ionna Muir 2&1, Sunday, 15, inflicted the first defeat of the season on a girl who, shortly after, would be named junior pennant player of the year.

The 2-1 win by Noosa Springs 1 – a team comprising Sunday, her 11-year-old sister Coco and her close friend Jasmine Lena – overturned an early season 3-0 defeat by Maroochy River 3, who many observers thought would be too strong for the Noosa Springs girls.

But they were wrong.

Jasmine played an outstanding match to beat her opponent Marley Habermann 6&5, and it made no difference that little Coco lost to Cooper Robinson 4&2, after conceding her opponent 15 strokes.

Two years ago, Jasmine and Coco – then only eight years old – were part of a Noosa Springs team that went down to Noosa in the junior pennant final.

“So we know how the Maroochy River team is feeling now,” Jasmine said. “Honestly, we really didn’t expect to win because they are such a strong team.

“We were actually preparing a speech to congratulate them, so to come away with this win is unexpected, but something we are enormously proud of,” she said.

Just as proud was team manager Di Banks, who described the girls’ effort as ‘amazing’.

“They’re a very close unit and they play for each other,” she said. “They also get wonderful support from their families. They have fun and they work hard.”

Maroochy River’s Ionna Muir, a scratch marker at just 13 and unbeaten until the final, won the player of the season award, and Noosa’s Amy Coates won the zone encouragement award – fitting for a girl who acquired her handicap only just in time for the pennant season.

Noosa back in A grade mix In senior pennant competition, defending champion Noosa roared back into contention after a surprise first round loss, smashing the strong Headland team 7-0 and climbing quickly to third place in A grade standings.

George Giblett, Toby Harding, Cooper Clark and Alex O’Brien scored 2&1 wins over each of their rivals, while Sam Boulden (4&3), Alex Officer (3&2) and Ryan Mulder (2&1) all had good wins.

Noosa’s second team, Noosa 1, shared the points with Mt Coolum in their A grade clash.

Noosa 1 winners were Miles Richardson (2&1), Bronson White (5&3) and Grant Baker (2&1), while Treg Kleidon squared his match with Mt Coolum young gun Jack Elsly.

Cooroy beat Noosa 4-3 in B grade to stand alone at the top of the standings, Cooroy’s Noel Ackland providing the highlight with a resounding 9&8 win over Noosa’s Nathan Jackson. Also in B grade, Mt Coolum was too strong for Noosa Springs, winning 5-2 – Ben McCulloch (1up) and James Hordern (2&1) the winners for Noosa Springs.

In Masters, Noosa crushed Cooroy 5.5-1.5 to go to the top of the ladder, while Noosa Springs and Mt Coolum fought out a 3.5-3.5 draw.

Pennant competition continues on Sunday at Caloundra (A grade), and at Noosa, Twin Waters and Cooroy (B grade and Masters).

Lorna’s making up for lost time For a country which gave the world the game of golf, Scotland isn’t particularly supportive of its female golfers.

Or, at least, it wasn’t when Lorna Gibson was growing up near Glasgow.

The male members of her family, including her dad, were keen golfers but, in Lorna’s words, women weren’t encouraged to play the game.

Indeed, at nearby Royal Troon, women were not admitted as members until 2016.

44 NOOSA TODAY Friday, 2 July, 2021

Think only of the good shots TAKE THE TIP PETER HEINIGER Attempting two or more things at once is always a difficult task.

So, when playing golf, it’s essential that your mind is clear of any thoughts other than the shot at hand.

Golfers can’t afford to focus on what’s happening around them or, even worse, worry about what trouble they may possibly find.

Always focus on the positives rather than the negatives. Where do you want the ball to finish rather than where you don’t want it to finish?

The best way to achieve this is positive self-talk and imaging. Keep telling yourself exactly how you’re going to hit the ball to your target and, of course, always finish with a positive outcome and picture in your mind prior to playing your shot.

Simple thoughts make golf simple.

Good golfing.

Delighted junior pennant champs (from left) Coco Moore, Jasmine Lena and Sunday Moore.

It wasn’t until later, when she was living in Singapore with her husband David 20 years ago, that Lorna really got into golf.

And when she moved to Noosa in 2006, golf suddenly became an important part of her life.

Lorna is now active in golf administration, serving as the zone’s Championship Manager, responsible for three tournaments each year.

She’s a handy player, herself – notching 42 stableford points to win a midweek competition at Noosa Springs last week, though she modestly declares her success was entirely due to her putting running hot.

“It was totally unexpected,” she said. “I’d been playing poorly for a long time, and I think it was a bit of a fluke. Perhaps it was because I was just relaxed.”

Busy Lorna is also president of Sunshine Coast Challenge Golf, a group who play monthly competitions at some of the region’s best golf courses.

They also raise funds for worthy charities – including Mix-FM’s Give Me 5 for Kids appeal, to whom Lorna last week donated $5000 from money raised by her golfing friends.

New deal for time-poor golfers Cooroy Golf Club has introduced an inexpensive new membership designed for golfers unable to play regularly or to justify the cost of full membership.

People wishing to become an Ordinary Payas-you-Play member pay no joining fee, an annual subscription of $300, and $20 each time they play – socially or in competition.

Club officials expect the new membership category to be popular with golfers who have limited time to play, but wish to maintain a handicap and enjoy the benefits of club membership.

Those taking up the offer can transition to Ordinary Membership by paying the appropriate fee.

Kids play free at Noosa Springs Children are always welcome at Noosa Springs, and during the current school holidays they get to play free.

The offer is for youngsters aged up to 17,

and they must be accompanied by a fee-paying adult.

Children – those aged 12 and under – also eat free on Fridays and Saturdays at the resort’s popular Relish restaurant, on condition you make an early booking.

Life of Brine Phil Jarratt

Farewell big wave legend “It is with a heavy heart the Noll family announces the death of our patriarch, Greg Noll.

Greg died of natural causes on Monday June 28, at the age of 84.”

This sombre post from Greg’s ace surfboard shaper son Jed woke me up on Tuesday morning, and dumped me in a pretty bad place.

Not that I knew the legendary big wave rider and shaper as well as many did, but “Da Bull” was big of heart as well as stature, and once he’d embraced you in one of those grizzly bear hugs, you’d formed a bond forever.

That’s what happened to me. We were pretty close for about a decade, and although I hadn’t seen him for at least a decade, I can still see him sitting by the pool at South Pacific, or hiding in a corner of his trade show booth, resting between signing autographs, and I can still hear that loud, throaty chuckle as he cracks wise while talking story. That was Greg.

Already a noted big wave rider at Makaha on Oahu’s Westside, and one of the pioneers of the relatively unexplored North Shore and a place called Waimea Bay, Greg first came to Australia in 1956 for the international surf carnival being held at Torquay, Victoria, in conjunction with the Melbourne Olympics. He and his mates on the combined Hawaii/California lifeguard team brought with them their new-fangled and finned balsa pig surfboards, which enabled the surfer to turn the board and ride the face of the wave, rather than ride straight in.

These relatively lightweight boards had been seen in Australia earlier than this, but no one had seen them ridden like Greg Noll and buddies including Marilyn Monroe’s surfer boyfriend Tommy Zahn demonstrated at exhibitions along Sydney’s northern beaches. And when they left the country, their surfboards stayed, igniting the surf craze which, for some of us, continues to this day.

Greg went on to have a stellar big wave career until 1969, when he famously rode “the biggest wave ever ridden” at Makaha Point, came in and retired to become a professional fisherman. That phase had passed and he was an in-demand shaper when I first met him at early surf trade shows in California in the 1980s. Our paths crossed again at the Biarritz Surf Festival in France in the ‘90s, when he was reviving his Da Cat model with Miki Dora, and when John Brasen, John Lee and I started thinking about creating a surf festival for Noosa, strangely the big wave legend whose feet hadn’t been in the wax for 30 years was the first international guest I invited.

At the inaugural festival in 1998, affable Big Wave Greg got us all the headlines we needed and never tired of signing his famous big wave posters for fans, and he and wife Laura fell in love with Noosa. In fact on a trip up the beach to Double Island Point with Jim Tatton, and after a splendid Luc Turschwell beach barbie lunch, the crew nearly got Greg to paddle out!

(At the last minute Laura subbed for him and stood up a couple of times.)

The following year Greg and Laura came back, this time with the Greg Noll Legends Reunion, a huge collection of leading surfers from across the world, across the generations.

The surf didn’t really co-operate that year, but it was such a fun week. One of my abiding memories of the 1999 festival – and of Greg – is watching him, Billy Wallace and Buffalo Keaulana carrying the koa bowl to the water’s edge for the blessing of the waters. The three wise old men of surfing, and now Buff is the last man standing.

Aloha ‘oe, my friend.

Wave pools live!

Seeing as I bagged the Surf Ranch last week, I should point out that the global wave pool industry is not quite dead and buried. In fact, if you believe the industry-created media, it’s currently on a roll, and nowhere more so than in Queensland.

For starters, Surf Lakes marketing honcho Wayne Dart is back in his caravan at Yeppoon and spruiking deals in progress for the coffee

plunger wave creation system at about half a dozen locations in Australia, Europe and the US. How the continuing Covid saga is going to impact on these is an unknown, but the model seems to be getting traction, as well as big support locally for the multi-purpose water park that the R and D facility is now set to become.

Meanwhile, and closer to home, Wavepoolmag.com reports that the Endlesss Surf wave pool slated for Australia Zoo’s backyard at Glenview has got approvals at state and local government level and is good to go. Sanad Capital is the developer behind Actventure, a $65 million water park and family resort on Steve Irwin Way. The site will feature retail shops and restaurants, along with water slides and other pools with swim-up bars and other frills to keep mum and the kids happy while you rip and tear. Can you still say that?

The Endless Surf system can produce between 500 to 1000 waves an hour, both lefts and rights ranging from two feet to seven feet, with rides ranging from 60 metres to 200 in the maximum-size pool. The technology also uses a sophisticated software synching system to customize surf sessions. Surfers can go online, fill out a profile, complete safety forms and book their sessions, selecting wave preferences such as barrel, turns or combo waves.

Sound too good to be true? Well, for the moment, it is.

Talking Sport Ron Lane

Why do we keep it quiet?

Despite being performed in countries throughout the world and contested at the Olympics and Commonwealth Games, the sport of weight lifting gets little or no publicity. However, when the Olympics occur every four years, the sport of weight lifting always gets a good public following via the media. What Australian sport lover, will ever forget that day in August 1984, when a big Australian fisherman, Dean Lukin, virtually stopped the nation, to watch him perform the Clean and Jerk that was to win Australia’s first ever Olympic Gold Medal.

However, here in Noosa we have a very successful Barbell Olympic Weightlifting Club that focusses on the Olympic lifts, the Snatch, and the Clean and Jerk: the event that was to write the 130 kg Aussie fisherman, into the pages of our sporting history and also gain him a place in the Australian Hall of Fame. Established in 2017 and situated in Lionel Donavan Drive Noosaville, this club whose members train under the watchful eye of CrossFit 4566 coaching crew, is definitely starting to make people sit up and take note.

On entering the club, one cannot help but notice a one- word motto written on the walls, that tends to draw the eye. On reading the word and feeling the atmosphere that dwells within the four walls, it really conveys the heart and soul of the club. UNCONQUERED. In the world of sport this single word says it all.

The club, which continues to train under the strict health regulations, has just completed a lengthy three months training cycle, culminating in two weekends of state titles competition: competition where the athletes have the opportunity to perform on the states’ biggest stage. For our local Noosa club, the results tell us that it was their best performance, resulting in a swag of medals and many accolades: accolades which were justified by the teams’ overall training and competition achievements.

First on the program was the U/15 and

Kaiya Marsh

youth state titles, held in Milton Brisbane. In Day 1 14-year-old Kaiya Marsh won the gold in the F59kg category with a combined total of 113 kg. She Snatched 48kg and Cleaned and Jerked 65kg. That total also won a silver medal in the U/17 age group. Day 2, 13-year-old Alana Castle, went very well winning double goldin the U/15 and U/17 in the F76kg class, with a combined total of 113kg-Snatched 50kg and Cleaned and Jerked 63kg.

Taj Marsh rounded out the competition with a massive performance, winning gold

in the very competitive M89kg youth division, with an Australian and Queensland record total of 265kg-snatched an Australian and Queensland record 118kg, and Clean and Jerked another Australian and Queensland record of 147kg. To cap off a great performance, he was also named, the Best Male Lifter of the State titles. This resulted in him qualifying for the Oceanic Games, youth Commonwealth and youth Worlds. Regarding state team selection ,Alana Castle, Kaiya Marsh and Taj Marsh were chosen to represent Queensland at the

National Titles in Tasmania early next month.

One week following the State Titles, it was the Masters turn to take centre stage. The team got off to a good start when Wendy Camble competed in the 60 - 64 yr. F71, snatching 33kg and Clean and Jerk 36kg, totalling 69kg to win the silver medal. Next away was Scott Gig Mark in the M109kg catogary, snatching 78kg and clean and jerking 94kg for a total of 172kg. This saw Scott win gold and thus qualify for National and Commonwealth Masters championships later this year in Cairns. For Charlene Whitton, who was competing for the first time for her club, her first outing was very impressive: winning the gold medal in the 50-54yr F76KG, snatching 38kg and clean and jerking 51kg for a total of 89kg.

To wrap up Day1, Mel Lumb won the gold in the 50-54yr F71kg with a snatch of 45 kg and clean and jerk 63 kg (narrowly missing a massive 70kg) for a total of 108kg. Day 2 was for Dianna Worrell, also, her first time on the competition platform. Once her nerves and excitement were under control, her performance in the 40-44yr F76kg-- snatching a PB of 40kg- and clean and jerk 50kg for a PB total of 90kg-- saw Dianna come home with a silver medal.

With club photographer Bowen Stewart in attendance to record, “Moments by Bilbo’’the outstanding results achieved by this team, will be forever recorded in the files of the clubs’ history. Once again, another small club nestled away in a side street of our community, has made themselves known at State level with an outstanding performance, their best ever. So, why keep it quiet?

When athletes, regardless of their chosen sport, arrive home having set State and National records, plus three selected in the State team, it is only right that we take the moment to extend a very big welcome home and well done, to all members of the Noosa Barbell Club and the Crossfit 4566 coaching crew.

Father of Aussie Rules in Noosa still has plenty in tank

By Phil Jarratt Len Daddow, the father of Aussie Rules footy in Noosa, could hardly contain his excitement last Saturday at Rococo Oval. While the Tigers were getting thrashed by Labrador out on the turf, in the clubhouse you’d be forgiven for thinking they’d just won the premiership.

Lenny, now in his 86th year, had waited a long time to celebrate the Tigers half century, and then, like the Tokyo Olympics, he had to wait another year because of Covid. He was fairly bursting when he took to the stage, ahead of special guest Geelong legend Bill Brownless, to give the young folk a history lesson. And why not? No one has done more for footie than the community-minded car dealer from Cooroy.

Born in Brisbane in 1935, Len joined the workforce on his 15th birthday in 1950, cracked a good job with General Motors a few years later, beginning a lifelong association with the automotive industry, and moved to Cooroy in 1966 with his young family and started his own dealership. Len had played a bit of footie in the junior grades in his youth, even got a few runs with the seniors, and Aussie Rules football was a passion. So when a couple of Maroochydore blokes, newly arrived from Melbourne, put an ad in the paper asking for help in setting up a Coast footie comp, Len was the first to respond. He met with them in December 1969 to help set up the Sunshine Coast Australaian Football League, chaired a community meeting at Tewantin’s Royal Mail hotel in January, 1970, and by Anzac Day the Noosa District Australian Football Club had been formed and the seniors beat Nambour under lights in front of a passionate home crowd at the Cooroy Showgrounds.

Picture: SUPPLIED

Len with Geelong legend Bill Brownless and acting Tiger’s president Julian Pitts.

Len Daddow had barely paused for breath when doing all of this in 1970, nor when recounting it in the clubhouse last weekend.

But he paused for effect, leaned into the microphone and said, “I suppose you often wonder how we got the name Tigers.” Well, hell, yeah!

As it turns out, Lenny stole it. Twice. He had a mate in Brisbane who had an Esso service station, and Len liked the bold tiger signs with the motto, “put a tiger in your tank”. It seemed apt for a bold new footie club emerging from the wilds of the Sunny Coast. But as it turned out, the name had already been taken by the Labrador club, but Noosa took it anyway.

(This got a cheer in the clubhouse, probably because it seemed only fair payback for the

mob running all over our boys outside.)

It’s been the Noosa Tigers ever since, and while they’ve had good years and bad years, the club has a proud history and a bulging trophy cabinet, and, as Len likes to remind people, “we’ve never missed a season and we’ve never gone broke.”

In the early years the Sunshine Coast comp was made up of just three teams – Maroochydore, Nambour and Noosa. “You’d have a bye every second week, you’d play each other five times and that was a season,” Len recalled.

“But it grew, and we grew with it.”

The Tigers were also nomadic for the first handful of years, at Cooroy, then a season at Peregian before Len helped secure a land deal

in town through an unlikely alliance with a new Tewantin retiree, the former Queensland deputy premier, treasurer and leader of the Libs, Sir Thomas Hiley. Tom Hiley loved Noosa and he loved footie, and he found the Tigers 15 acres beside Weyba Creek.

Len Daddow gestured towards the mighty expanse beyond the clubhouse. “And that’s what you see here today.” But he left out another interesting part of the story, which is that Tom Hiley was also a patron of the arts, and he and Len brokered a deal that also saw Noosa Arts Theatre shave off part of the property so that they, too, could have a permanent home.

Life member Len Daddow has been president and patron of the Tigers, and remains its heart and soul. He even embraces its changes.

“We were a boys’ club for 48 years, and now all that has changed. And that’s a good thing.”

Tigers action and cheer

By Julian Pitts What a wonderful day and night had by all who joined the Noosa Tigers AFC 50 Year celebrations last Saturday at Rococo Oval. People from all eras caught up, told stories and reflected on nothing but great times shared throughout the club’s journey. Club legends like Len Daddow, Buster Bunney and Alby Hancock greeted the crowd with their fond Tigers memories! The memorabilia table (thanks to club legend Judy Meager) kept many guests entertained throughout the day, with historic photos and game day stats providing plenty to peruse.

Geelong great Billy Brownless had us all in hysterics during the half time break, whilst our little under 8s did a fantastic job out in the middle during the same time. After the Seniors match day awards, life member Ashley Trompf read out the final and most recent ‘team of the decade’. Father/Son entries of Brett Buntain (1990s) and Riley (2010s), along with Tony and Jai Fitzpatrick in the same fashion, were highlights of the unveiling.

Amazing to see so many Noosa greats there, including Bart and Thel Jaques who have been so influential in the ongoing success of this footy club. 1970s team member, 1980s coach of the decade and Melbourne FC legend John Townsend was in the crowd, as were coaching greats Brett Maloney and Wayne Fletcher.

Bones Murray was named captain of both the 1970s and 1980s teams, whilst the fearless Aaron Jaques was captain of the 1990s squad.

Mark Vagg, one of the greatest ever players from the Sunshine Coast, got the gig for the early 2000s team and Adam Bovalino deserved

Tigers action on the weekend. his dual nominations and being named leader of the most recent group. To see the Hunt brothers, Mick Anderson, Damian Hahn, Matt Hicks, Andrew Ford, Damian Smith, Hugh Stewart, Ryan Sawers, Brett Duke, Brad Cross, Todd Hutchen, Mark Owen, Reece Langan, Kim Farrell, Donny Blair, Terry Drew, Garry Shaw, and Brian Fox to name a few, fantastic!

All champions of our great club.

A great night had by all and thanks to all that helped in setting it up. All three men’s senior grades had a real crack in front of a bumper crowd, just falling away after half time. No

The Noosa Tigers Senior Women are sitting on top of the ladder and played bottom placed North Shore on Saturday. The Tigers jumped straight out of the blocks, posting 6 goals in the first quarter. Georgia Kenrick relished her first time as a midfielder and Chloe Gallio set the tone early by winning clearances and laying some big tackles. Our joint skippers, Cass Young and Eliza Trompf were dominant, but it was the huge shift towards a totally TEAM

FIRST mindset that provided the catalyst for a record score for the season. Noosa Tigers posted the massive score of 19.9 (123) to 0 in 60 minutes of footy and it was simply great to watch.This Saturday 5th July we have a top of the table clash, with Noosa Tigers taking on Alexander Hills in a 1 v 2 clash at Rococo Oval in Noosa. Should be a beauty, so get down to support the Tigers from 2:00pm. Bar and canteen will be open!

AUCTION JOY AT WESLEY COURT PROPERTY MATTERS ERLE LEVEY IT was inevitable the waterfront bungalow at 22 Wesley Ct, Noosa Heads, listed

by Tom Offermann Real Estate agents Rebekah Offermann and Nic Hunter, would attract enormous attention pre-auction and on the day.

After all, it was built in 1984 in a prestigious location on Noosa Sound, by the very gracious now 97-year-old Joy Cooper and her late husband, and maintained in its neat-as-a-pin original condition. Seventy-plus onlookers spilling onto the street were excited, and in Joy’s case it was a bittersweet moment.

With 13 registered bidders mostly on the phone from Queensland, there was a chorus of opening bids, and a very rapid pace followed with auctioneer Gordon Macdonald at the helm. There was much applause when the hammer fell at $7.25m to a buyer from Brisbane.

A seven-bedroom, four-bathroom house designed for multi-family living on 1.06ha with pool at 19 Mackay Ct, Tinbeerwah, has been listed for auction on Saturday, July 3, at 11am. 241903

Sound also headed to auction, this time a classic curvaceous Spanish missionstyle home at 35 Cooran Ct, listed by Eric Seetoo.

The deceased estate attracted four registered bidders and 70 attendees. It was sold under the hammer for $4.7m with the buyer planning a luxury residence designed by architect Tim Ditchfield.

Thanks to interstate lockdowns not only were school holiday plans such as surfing for the kids cancelled but physically attending auctions with the serious intention of purchasing a property, was not a proposition. Such was the case at the Tracy Russell-listed 12 Redwood Ave, Marcus Beach, with much pre-auction inquirers anticipating an inspection.

The three-bedroom property on a large block, was passed in and now has a price guide of $1.3m.

It was a similar situation at 10 Paul Street Noosa Heads, a Peter TeWhatalisted block of land centrally located near Noosa Junction. It now has a price guide of $950,000.

At the auction for the Rebekah

"With north-east aspect, it is a sunny, tropical oasis.

"Buyers from near and far are considering it as a beachie, private holiday home.

"Some are considering a rebuild for a grand Sunshine home to take full advantage of the site and 360-degree views.

"Others see it as a high-end duplex site.''

IDEAL FOR FAMILY Melanie Butcher of Laguna Real Estate has a four-bedroom house at 18 Flame Tree Dve, Tewantin, going to auction on Saturday, July 10, at 10am.

"It's a good family home in a fantastic pocket,'' Melanie said.

With two bathrooms, two-car garaging and on 785sq m, it has a magnificent bushland backdrop.

On one level, it has two living areas leading to the sunny rear terrace. The main bedroom has ensuite and airconditioning.

The fully-fenced property has side access and a drive-through garage.

Offermann-listed 51 The Quarterdeck Noosa Heads, there were multiple bidders for the Trevor Reitsma-designed fivebedroom family home with wonderful views, on Noosa Hill. It was passed in and is now listed for $3.75m.

SOMETHING SPECIAL The three-bedroom, two-bathroom beachside house at 1 Parkedge Rd, Sunshine Beach, is very special.

And Rebekah Offermann at Tom Offermann Real Estate is getting strong interest on the property as she prepares to take it to auction on Sunday, July 4, at 9.30am.

SOMETHING FOR EVERYONE Melanie Butcher also has a two-bedroom, one-bathroom unit 18 Noosa Place Resort, 272 Weyba Rd, Noosaville, going to auction at 4pm on Thursday, July 15.

Fully furnished and with one-car garaging, it appeals as an investment unit, with a holiday option and income.

There were six registered bidders from Sydney, Brisbane, Noosa Heads and even the same street.

Bidding started at $1.2m, Kess said, and it very quickly became a war between two parties.

It sold under the hammer for $1.7m, to interstate buyers who have already located to Bli Bli while they waited until their dream home came along.

The recently-renovated house was characterised by exquisite attention to detail that offered an elegant resort-style way of life.

Kess said that people were not looking for a complete property rather than a project at the moment because anything thrown into the auction arena was getting snapped up.

CONTEMPORARY TOWNHOUSE Amanda Balding at Richardson & Wrench Noosa is very excited about a fullyfurnished townhouse 3/18 Sunseeker Cl, Noosaville, that is for sale by negotiation.

Offered fully furnished, it is tenanted until August and has an estimated rental valuation of $750 per week.

"It's your own retreat,'' Amanda said.

"Incredibly private.

ON THE COVER

ESCAPE TO THE CENTRE OF PARADISE IN PEREGIAN BEACH IF you’re thinking oceanfront, sweeping views and beachside living, strolling to the nearby village with its strong community feel, vibrant coffee culture, dog-friendly cafes and chic boutiques, plus being a 15-minute drive to Hastings Street, Peregian Beach has all the attributes. Add enviable lifestyle on the oceanfront and it doesn’t get much better than Residence Two at Shoreline.

This freestanding beach house, architecturally designed by Tim Ditchfield is only a 100m walk to the sand, is in a boutique complex of three. It’s nestled serenely and perched perfectly in an upmarket pocket on Peregian Esplanade.

Look ahead and just stare. It’s difficult to ignore the generosity of space in the light-filled, high ceiling-ed, open-plan living and dining areas with stunning marble tiles, two big balconies, wide deck and courtyard with a lush garden. Wherever you stand, all indoor and outdoor lines are blurred, thanks to ‘disappearing’ sliders, so the 180-degree Coral Sea views are maximised. They’re absolutely stunning and from the generous balcony on the Oceanside you can see Sunshine Beach headland to the north on the left and Mooloolaba’s Point Arkwright on the right.

Contributing to the essence of contemporary beach-style living is a custom built feature wall which has an integrated gas fireplace for cool nights, gorgeous high

ceilings, ducted air-conditioning throughout and on-trend open plan kitchen with breakfast bar, Miele appliances, marble bench tops plus every accoutrement for the consummate entertainer, who has to decide where amongst all the options is the best space to host guests.

Downstairs is where dreams are made.

All three bedrooms have access to terraces and north-easterly ocean views. The master suite has gorgeous stack back windows and a spacious ensuite; the other two generous bedrooms both queen-size offer walk in robes and large luxurious bathroom with stunning turned marble tiles and double vanity and easy walk in shower.

Residence Two Shoreline also offers its own private lift, large double garage with additional storage area, secure access, large laundry with drying courtyard and adjoining 3rd bathroom. There is 24m lap pool and designated gym area in the complex.

“This is one of Peregian’s best located luxury residences,” comments Tom Offermann Real Estate agent Tracy Russell.

“It’s directly opposite the beach, only a short walk to heart of Peregian Village and it offers a much sought after sophisticated beachside lifestyle for families or as a beachside holiday home. And let’s not forget when catching waves and building sandcastles becomes tiresome, head to the lap pool in the complex and cool off.” ●

70 METRES OF ABSOLUTE LAKE FRONTAGE IDYLLIC, extremely private and beautifully positioned amongst the verdant foothills of Mt Coolum, this magnificent lifestyle retreat in the heart of the Sunshine Coast basks in the desired light of a northern aspect and boasts some 90 metres of frontage to a lake that is home to a family of swans.

Intercom gated security access and professional management underpin the exclusivity of this small community of 50 residents and guests enjoying a serene environment in a sub-tropically rich landscape.

Part time extended escape or permanent residence for owners and guests, the proximity to the newly upgraded Sunshine Coast International Airport has set the scene for a renaissance of neighbouring Coolum Beach where a series of boardwalk lined bays, specialty shops and quality restaurants line the esplanade. Coolum's secluded bays fringed by sandy beaches are savoured by generations of families from back in the day when the David Low coastal road first opened the region to Brisbane and eventually the world.

Residence number nine takes its cue and salutes the evocative architecture of southern California and Santa Fe. The half pipe curves of a terracotta roof are paired well to the solid render of the main house.

An entertainment pavilion and similarly tailored 2 bedroom self contained guest cottage are positioned privately by the lakeside. For lovers of understated luxury and the use of time honoured materials, this elegant residence is a haven of inspiration and comfort.

A private road enters a wide circular

forecourt with a geometric aggregate pattern, three vehicle garage space and the seductive curves of the impressive design coming into view. Lush gardens and open lawns form a sub-tropical backdrop and, as you step inside a soaring peaked atrium diffuses light above the central plant filled courtyard. Expansive living and al fresco

dining address the water, while a bespoke fireplace and hearth invite you to take a seat and relax. The stunning moulded staircase ascends to a bedroom and ensuite with viewing balcony over the water.

A garden fringed main bedroom is a glamorous world unto itself. Energize in the spa bath alongside a view of the lake, marvel at the massive curved glass framed shower and simply indulge. When it's time to prepare a meal or snack, the granite bench island kitchen is equipped with Meile wall ovens, twin taps and plenty of pantry storage. For fans of the grape, make your way to a generous climate controlled room nearby for a fine wine of choice.

Carpet-like Zoysia grass under foot and the lake at your fingertips. The entertainment pavilion has a mighty new stainless barbecue and automatic awning to suit languid afternoons with family and friends. Guests and extended family will be looking for reasons to stay just a little longer.

The landmark slopes of Mt Coolum as your towering neighbour, magnificent golf course a short buggy trip away and the future economic growth of Coolum on your side; this exhilarating coastal residence soothes and rewards all inhabitants daily. ●

GRAND QUALITY OF LIFE SET on a generous 1155 square metre allotment, yet an easy five-minute walk to Noosa Junction, the central location is the perfect place to bring up the family.

Everything about this quality home screams space, with the three-car garage through to the multiple living spaces.

On entry, the sense of grandness begins to be revealed. The generous office easily accommodates a work from home option and is contained within the master suite where everything you expect – ensuite, walk-in robe and generous sleeping quarters - is located. The separation of the master from the other bedrooms is envious.

Ascend a mere handful of stairs to the central living level. A vast open plan kitchen /living /dining area, the heart of the home, is revealed. North facing glass opens to the in-ground pool and timber decked outdoor entertaining area. You can relax, assured the children are in view whilst swimming in the pool.

The kitchen features a 900mm oven, gas stove top, large island bench and butler’s pantry with easy connectivity to outside facilitating entertainment for just a few or for the masses, the choice is yours.

The media room is also on this level, where indoor activities can be easily supervised. The warmth of timber flooring throughout the common areas sets the tone with the bedrooms, office and media room all being carpeted.

The emphasis on comfort runs throughout the home with high ceilings and ducted air conditioning throughout.

Another handful of stairs from the living level takes you to the wing containing the remaining three bedrooms and additional living space which flows to the back yard.

Directly up from the living is two generous

bedrooms, both with built-in robes and an outlook to the greenery of the back yard, a shared family bathroom all part of the attraction.

A short walk down the hallway brings you to the second living area which opens to the back yard.

Continuing along from the second living is the fourth bedroom, a great guest room with an ensuite and northerly aspect. The only problem your guests would love it so much they would never leave!

7 Grosvenor Terrace features a wellthought floorplan that allows everyone
