New lights on A pretty little shop

Works on the traffic lights Warwick’s CBD were underway again on 8 August, with a local company replacing the lights. Locals seemed to have less issue this time, with no one caught unawares. The new lights use LED light bulbs instead of the old halogen light bulbs. The use of LED light bulbs will mean less power consumption and longevity for the lights, fulfilling part of the Council’s environmental sustainability strategy. Full story - Page 5

When Colleen Gillece and her husband bought their new house in Warwick after moving from Goondiwindi, the little shop at the front of the property was originally intended for storage. Read more about how it turned into Colleen’s passion project on page 4

In lockdown Two Warwick schools have been caught up in the Brisbane lockdown, with confusion over mask wearing upon return. Both Warwick State High School and Warwick West Primary School took trips to Brisbane on Friday 30 July. Warwick State High School went on a “rewards trip” to a football game in Brisbane, while grade three Warwick West Primary School students went to the planetarium. Despite some confusion on whether they needed to wear masks on their return, a spokesperson for the Department of Education said both schools “diligently followed advice provided by the Department on the evening of Sunday 1 August around students wearing masks”.

Hoon car seized engaged in hooning within the Warwick CBD over the weekend,“ he said. “This wasn’t an act of intolerance or defiance against police – this was an act of intolerance against the community of Warwick. “To behave in that manner at that location speaks volumes towards the character of these people.

“This behaviour is an act committed against the community of Warwick and is a whole of community concern.” The skid marks in Warwick’s CBD on Palmerin Street caused quite an uproar on Sunday after a local posted pictures of them into a community Facebook group. The marks were caused between midnight and 6am.

Officer Deacon said hooning was dangerous and could endanger lives. “It could be anyone’s friend or family member that is killed by the behaviour of these individuals or groups,” he said. Full story - Page 3

The 25th Historic Leyburn Sprints have been postponed by three weeks until 11-12 September, because of Covid-19 restrictions. Sprints President Tricia Chant said that although the State Government yesterday lifted the Brisbane lockdown, the Premier had asked people from those 11 affected Local Government Areas to refrain from visiting regional areas. This meant many competitors and spectators from greater Brisbane would not be able to attend the award-winning event on the original date of 21-22 August. “We are very mindful of running not only a successful event, but also a safe one, and we feel that this is the best solution for all involved. We are working as fast as we can to advise our competitors, suppliers, sponsors, supporters and others involved in the Sprints,” Mrs Chant said. “With less than two weeks to go to the original date we were already almost fully prepared

and expect the re-scheduled event will offer all the same great features and attractions.” The Historic Leyburn Sprints is one of Australia’s most popular historic and classic motorsport events and attracts up to 15,000 visitors every year to the Southern Darling Downs region. The postponed event will reportedly still have a huge field of over 200 entries. The entry list includes 58 different makes of racing, sports and touring cars, ranging in vintage from 1925 to 2019 and each competition for honours on 21 and 22 August. Two cars with iconic but vastly different Australian racing histories are set to part of the lineup. Leyburn’s 1.0 kilometre round-the-houses course will shake with the thunderous sound of a 2008 Ford Fusion NASCAR. once driven to victory in America by Aussie champion Marcos Ambrose, while the oldest Australian racing

What a week! If you read last week’s editions of Warwick and Stanthorpe Today you may have noticed my name was missing from the pages. I had a few days off work and headed to Brisbane to see my family on Thursday 29 July - two days before Queensland Premier Annastacia Palaszczuk announced Brisbane and 10 other local government areas in south-east Queensland would enter a lockdown. You can imagine how that turned out. I am pleased to now be back in Warwick, all masked up, after the lockdown lifted on Sunday 8 August. Though brief, the lockdown reiterated to me the importance of getting vaccinated as soon as possible. We received word on Tuesday 10 August, just as we were going to print, that people over the age of 16 could soon have access to both AstraZeneca and Pfizer Covid-19 vaccines via pop-up clinics. Concerns about the potential longterm side effects of the vaccines have circulated since the very beginning of the pandemic, but more and more people seem to be coming around to the idea – particularly as lockdowns become longer and more frequent across the country. I for one am thrilled to know my jab could be now be mere weeks away, rather than months. I am desperate for life to return to normal, for borders to reopen, and for international travel to resume. I have faith that this month’s rollout of vaccines in Warwick and Stanthorpe will bring us a step closer.

Car seized over hooning By Dominique Tassell Police executed a search warrant on Tuesday 10 August on a Warwick address which resulted in the seizure of a vehicle believed to be responsible for the hooning behaviour in Palmerin St and other locations. No one has been charged at this time with investigations ongoing. Officer-in-charge Jamie Deacon released a statement following the morning’s events. He stated that, “like everyone else in the community I was disgusted in the behaviour of individuals who engaged in hooning within the Warwick CBD over the weekend”. “This wasn’t an act of intolerance or defiance against police – this was an act of intolerance against the community of Warwick. “To behave in that manner at that location speaks volumes towards the character of these people. “It is important to understand that police simply cannot be everywhere every second of every day, and we are reliant on the community to be our eyes and ears for offending behaviour. “These idiots conduct hooning behaviour at any time and any place, it is literally over in a matter of seconds and they move on. “This behaviour is an act committed against the community of Warwick and is a whole of community concern. “It is important that people report hooning behaviour as it happens and where possible record what they see. “It is also vital to understand that there are people within the community that are aware of hooning behaviour of some individuals. “These people may be family, friends, or work colleagues of those responsible, and they have a moral obligation to report this offending behaviour before someone is seriously injured or killed. The behaviour is utterly irre-

Picture: WARREN WEBSTER sponsible and incredibly dangerous. “It is being conducted on public roads that are used by innocent and law abiding members our community, such as the elderly, young inexperienced drivers, and families. “Keeping silent in regard to hooning is condoning this behaviour. “Businesses or acquaintances that supply tyres to these idiots are also condoning the behaviour and putting lives at risk.

“Work colleagues or employers of these idiots, that know of their behaviour, are also condoning this behaviour. “Anyone seeing or ‘liking’ hooning videos that may be displayed on one of the many social media platforms are also condoning and encouraging this behaviour.” The skid marks in Warwick’s CBD on Palmerin Street caused quite an uproar on Sunday 8 August after a local posted pictures of them

into a community Facebook group. The marks were caused between midnight and 6am. Local man Warren Webster went into town on 6:30am on Sunday and noticed the skid marks. He posted the photos online, and received over 100 reactions to the post. Comments were coming in rapidly before an admin turned off the function. Kieran Doherty commented that “it’s not just the unsightly tyre marks”. “They endanger themselves and others.” Debbie Thomas commented that “it’s getting ridiculous the amount of idiots doing burnouts going to kill themselves or some other people”. Karen West commented that “it’s been going on for months”. “Not a street or road in the district that doesn’t have rubber all over it.” Warren maintains that police need to take action against those driving dangerously around town. “If this guy lost control, he could’ve ended up in a shop,” he said. Officer-in-charge Jamie Deacon echoed this sentiment in his statement, saying that “it could be anyone’s friend or family member that is killed by the behaviour of these individuals or groups”. “Tolerance of it, by people that know of it occurring, needs to stop. “I encourage anyone who has any footage that may have recorded or screen shot from social media to bring it to Warwick Police. “Please continue to call Warwick Police on 46604444 during day hours, or Policelink on 131444 after hours. If the incident is dangerous and still occurring please call ‘000’. “Again, wherever possible record the activity on your mobile phone or dashcam.”

Warwick schools caught up in lockdown confusion Two Warwick schools have been caught up in the Brisbane lockdown, with confusion over mask wearing upon return. Both Warwick State High School and Warwick West Primary School took trips to Brisbane on Friday 30 July. Warwick State High School went on a “rewards trip” to a football game in Brisbane, while grade three Warwick West Primary School students allegedly went on an excursion to the planetarium. A spokesperson for the Department of Education sent through near identical statements for both schools, stating they “diligently followed advice provided by the Department on the evening of Sunday 1 August around students wearing masks”. The statement for Warwick West Primary School stated that primary school students

six, meaning not all primary school students are exempt from mask wearing. Given the group that travelled to Brisbane was reportedly in year three, none of the children would be required to wear a mask. While the restrictions at the time stated that anyone over the age of 12 who had travelled to South-East Queensland should wear a mask for 14 days upon returning home, Warwick State High Students reportedly did not. This has been blamed on conflicting advice from the health department, and multiple students have reportedly been tested since. Questions have been raised about why the schools went ahead with excursions at a time when growing numbers of cases were being detected among students in Brisbane, with the first of the school children announced on the morning of the excursions.

The current outbreak in Brisbane has resulted in almost 9000 people being put into quarantine. Children under 12 years of age currently do not have to wear masks, however the Queensland State Government recently stated they were reconsidering this given the outbreak in Brisbane. Anyone over 12 years of age has been required to wear a mask if declared mandatory at any point during the pandemic. Most recently, health advice stated that if you have been in Brisbane and returned to another area you must wear a mask for two weeks. This advice was in place prior to the students travelling to Brisbane on 30 July. Neither school would give comment to alleviate stress in the community by confirming actions were taken to ensure no cases were brought back to town.

Vax clinics ready to go Stanthorpe and Warwick are set to get vaccine clinics in town this month, with the Stanthorpe clinic already up and running. Darling Downs Health will provide doses of the COVID-19 Pfizer vaccine at a clinic at the Stanthorpe Showgrounds from Tuesday 10 August to Friday 13 August. The Warwick clinic will be held at the Warwick Showgrounds from Tuesday 24 August to Saturday 28 August. Southern Downs Mayor Vic Pennisi shared the news while on Rose City FM, encouraging residents to roll up their sleeves and get the jab. Southern Downs Regional Council has facilitated the use of the showgrounds for the clinics. The clinic in Stanthorpe will be open from 8.30am to 3.50pm from Tuesday to Thursday, and 8.30am to 1pm on Friday. The clinic in Warwick will be open from 8:30am to 3:50pm from Tuesday to Friday and 8:30am to 1pm on Saturday. Vaccinations will be provided in line with current Australian Technical Advisory Group on Immunisation (ATAGI) recommendations and guidelines. The Queensland State Government announced on 8 August that school staff and childcare workers would become a priority for vaccinations in the wake of the recent Delta outbreak. This includes teachers, teachers’ aides, management and administrative staff, groundskeepers, cleaners, locum staff, regular

volunteers, and other school and early learning support staff. FIFO, freight and distribution centre workers have also been added to the high-risk priority group. Darling Downs Health announced on 10 August that everyone aged over 16 years is encouraged to receive a COVID-19 vaccine at both the Stanthorpe and Warwick clinics. The announcement stated that “people attending the clinic will be screened by our staff on arrival to ensure the Pfizer vaccination is suitable“. Everyone who is eligible, and wants to have a vaccine, can walk-in to the clinic to get their jab. DDH recommends that if you have questions about the vaccine, talk to your doctor or health care worker to get the right, up-to-date information. “The vaccination is safe and is free. It is the best way to protect yourself, your loved ones, and your community,” Annette Scott, executive lead for the Darling Downs Health Emergency Operations Centre, said. If you plan to attend the clinic, bring ID, your Medicare card, and a pen. DDH emphasised that people who have received one dose of the Astra Zeneca vaccine, which has been provided recently through GPs and Aboriginal Medical Services, should receive a second dose of Astra Zeneca and not a Pfizer vaccine. “If you are unsure which vaccine you have received, talk to a doctor or health care worker”.

Colleen Gillece says this is her passion.

Little Shop of pretty things By Dominique Tassell When Colleen Gillece and her husband bought their new house in Warwick after moving from Goondiwindi, the little shop at the front of the property was originally intended for storage. “Well we didn’t buy the house for the shop, but then we said we could paint it and do it up,” she says. “It was the store room, everything was already in here!” Thus, the Little Shop at 23 was born. Colleen is a self-proclaimed “lover of pretty things”, and she loves sharing her pretty things with others. “I’ve been collecting for probably most of my life, but just lately probably the last 10, 15 years I’ve collected most of the things in the shop.” In the Little Shop, Colleen combines preloved goods with new things she’s made. Offerings that Colleen has reworked include everything from embroidered hand towels and homemade pincushions to candleholders made out of sprockets. “I call it recycle, reinvent, renew” Colleen says, pointing to a skirt she remade into two aprons. “I like to reuse things and give them another life.” Colleen also loves scrapbooking and card making, and sells the things she makes in store. She also wants to hold workshops in the future on these crafts. “A lot of people think you need talent to do scrapbooking, but anyone can do it.” When it comes to the secondhand homewares in the store, Colleen says she’s been building her collection for years. “I’m a big collector of coffee china and glass ware.”

Colleen says the dearest thing in the shop is probably $20.

Products in the Little Shop include items Colleen has handmade. Colleen says her store is a curated shop, and that’s what sets it apart from other secondhand stores. “The shop is affordable.” “I think the dearest thing in the shop is $20.” “It’s only a little shop, I haven’t got a lot of room. So that’s the namesake, I kept referring to it as the little shop. So I had to keep calling it that.”

Warwick CBD lights are now brighter and better By Dominique Tassell

Canned Ekka hurts locals By Jess Baker Queensland’s largest agricultural show has been cancelled for a second year due to Covid-19, leaving many Southern Downs producers “devastated” and out of pocket. The decision to cancel Brisbane’s 2021 Ekka was announced on Monday 2 August, just days before the event was supposed to commence. Stanthorpe beef producer Christine Williamson said she and her family show their cattle at Ekka every year. “This would probably have been our eighth or ninth time that we’ve shown at Ekka, and this is the second time of course that it’s been cancelled,” Christine said. Christine said the news of this year’s cancellation was “very disappointing” after so many months – and dollars – were invested in preparing for the event. “We’re not talking hundreds, it would be thousands of dollars to ensure that you have a team of cattle to take to the Ekka,” Christine said. “Plus you pay for your accommodation and entry fees and all of those things. It’s quite expensive to go.” She said she and her family – like many others – had spent nearly a year preparing their team of cattle for this year’s Ekka, investing hours and money in feed, breaking cattle and organising travel. “Last year it was called early,” Christine said. “This year, because it was such a sudden calling, I would think there would be many people in the same boat who have prepared their cattle for such a long time and spent such a large amount of money … (which is now) sort of lost.” RNA said it was devastating to have to cancel what was meant to be an historic comeback Ekka, but going ahead was not feasible

given the current Delta outbreak in south-east Queensland. “It is especially tough for the farming community who have been eagerly awaiting this year’s show which is a celebration of all things agriculture,” RNA shared in a statement. The not-for-profit organisation said it would endeavour to see if some competitions could continue in the coming weeks in a Covid-safe environment and without the general public. Christine said Ekka was an opportunity not only for producers to showcase their cattle, but also to connect with others. “It’s a good place to network with other farmers who have been in similar situations and the drought’s only really just ended,” she said. “(It’s about) people getting out there and connecting with one another and looking at each other’s cattle and just really enjoying each other’s company and having that break as well.” The loss of the “once-in-a-year opportunity” for beef producers to congregate, and for agriculture to meet city, was felt by people right across the Southern Downs. Mitch McMahon from Warwick said he had shown steers at Ekka for eight years, and had poured substantial cash into preparing cattle for this year’s show. “It’s something we look forward to every year,” Mitch said. He said that while there were plenty of people worse off than he – considering visiting Ekka was “more of a hobby” than essential to business – the cancellation was a setback. “It was disappointing we couldn’t spend the week down there doing what we love,” Mitch said. He said he and his family were now looking to 2022 to deliver a stress-less, Covid-free Ekka they might finally have the freedom to enjoy.

The old halogen lights were replaced with new LED ones. tive said that “the new system will make a significant improvement to traffic safety at this intersection as the signals will be more visible than those illuminated by the existing incandescent globes, which only provide a few levels of brightness”. “A secondary benefit is that maintenance and power usage requirements on this system will reduce significantly with the reduction in power cost being driven down by an estimated 80 per cent, supporting the newly adopted Environmental Sustainability Strategy 2021-2031. “Council received advice from Transport and Main Roads and consulted with Emergency Services to inform the communications strategy and in this instance no statutory advertising was not required as the works did not affect changing any of the movements at the intersection. “The junction will again be closed between 6am and 5pm on Sunday 8 August 2021 with route diversions in place to ensure safe movement of traffic whilst the works are completed.”

Works on the traffic lights Warwick’s CBD were underway again on 8 August, with a local company replacing the lights. Work started around 6:30am and continued until nightfall, with a larger section of the area blocked off from drivers than on 1 August. Locals seemed to have less issue this time, with no one caught unawares. Work was however hampered in the afternoon by one local allegedly behaving dangerously around equipment and arguing with workers. Works were carried out by Electrical Worx Warwick, and tradies kept the energy up during the long time by blasting the radio. Hits included “Miss Independent” by Kelly Clarkson. The new lights use LED light bulbs instead of the old halogen light bulbs. The use of LED light bulbs will mean less power consumption and longevity for the lights. This fulfils part of the Council’s environmental sustainability strategy to replace street lights with more sustainable LED bulbs, but will also “improve visibility and safety” at the Palmerin Street and Grafton Street intersection. A representative of council stated that “during a recent inspection, this unit was found to be obsolete and this instigated the upgrade”. “A failure, should one have occurred, on this unit would have rendered the traffic lanterns inoperable at this intersection.” Of the 8 August works, the representa-

Ben’s historic role By Jess Baker The ninth and final young ambassador has been announced for the 2022 Apple and Grape Harvest Festival, with the entrant set to go down in history as one of only three men to compete. Ben Green, 20, has been involved with the Festival for as long as he can remember. He grew up in Stanthorpe, attending Thulimbah State School from Prep through Year 7 and St Joseph’s School until Year 12, and always loved participating in events at the Festival like the grand parade. Ben now works his dream job as a veterinary nurse at Stanthorpe Vet Care Services and hopes to incorporate his love for animals, people, and the town into his fundraising for next year’s Apple and Grape. He said he was looking forward to some of the bigger fundraising events he and his sponsor – and employer – Kirstin Widderick were planning for the coming year. “I wanted to raise some money for the Apple and Grape and get to know some more people,” Ben said. He said he hoped other young men might look to him, as the third ever male Apple and Grape young ambassador, and consider pursuing the experience themselves. “It’s really rewarding,” he said. Ben said an old friend and co-worker of his Kasey Charlton inspired him to take the leap and become a young ambassador for the 2022 Festival, as she had had a fantastic time as a young ambassador in 2016. He said he was grateful for the support of his sponsor Kirstin – and Stanthorpe Vet Care Services – in his journey. “Kirstin’s been awesome. She’s given me a lot of donations (and) a lot of her time,” Ben said. “She’s just been fantastic.” Kirstin said she was pleased to once again sponsor an entrant in the Young Ambassador program, as it benefitted the Apple and Grape and was also great fun. “A lot of people come to town for the festi-

Apple and Grape Young Ambassador Ben Green and his sponsor Kirstin Widderick. Picture: SAMANTHA WANTLING val,” Kirstin said. “People who used to live here come back and bring their friends and there are a lot of tourists. “It’s fun to get out and just get amongst it.” Apple and Grape Festival President Russell Wantling said next year would mark a decade since the committee allowed males to enter the young ambassador competition. “There have only been two males before Ben, but how fitting is it, in the 150th birthday of Stanthorpe, to have another male in this program,” Russell said. “It is just another way of showing how far we have come as a region in 150 years. And having a young resident as grounded and hardworking as Ben round off the nine ambassadors, honestly, I could not be happier.” Russell said it was “fantastic” to welcome Kirstin back as a sponsor for the second time, as Stanthorpe Vet Care Clinic was an integral

and involved part of the business community. “So that is it … our nine ambassadors,” he said. “Make sure you throw your support behind these nine exemplary young adults as they strive to make your festival not only long lasting, but better for generations to come. “Whether it is a raffle ticket, or a major event that they are hosting, there will be something for everyone.” In his fundraising for the Young Ambassador program, Ben will offer dog hydrobaths every second Saturday and will run 100 Clubs at his second place of employment, Hotel Stanthorpe (Top Pub).

Last week Dad went to Brisbane to go to parliament and left parliament on Saturday morning at the time the lockdown started. So that means that even though we live in Stanthorpe we had to follow the Brisbane lockdown rules once Dad got home. What’s good is that I could sleep in but once I woke up I got really really bored. So we did some home schooling which was not fun, kayaking and also went on the buggy, kicked the football around, played handball and watched our iPads. Luckily we could actually go into town to get essential stuff like groceries (and the newspaper) or it would be a lot worse – but Mum had to wear a mask. But we missed out on school, cello lessons, swimming lessons in Warwick, two Gremlins training sessions and the Saturday game against Goondiwindi. William also missed his scout camp and was not happy. I didn’t like being in lockdown when everyone got to be at school and footy. Dad was only in Brisbane for a few hours on Saturday and he literally just went down the lift from his room at Parliament Saturday morning and straight into his ute, so he didn’t even see another person. Since the Brisbane lockdown ended on Sunday we could go back to school today (Monday). I’m really happy that the latest lockdown has ended but I think that there will be lots more lockdowns. Hopefully everyone who can gets vaccinated soon, follows the rules and things can get back to Covid normal soon.

Akooramak secures funding for facilities By Jess Baker A popular aged care provider in Warwick has secured hundreds of thousands of dollars in federal funding to upgrade its facilities and meet the growing needs of the Southern Downs community. Member for Maranoa David Littleproud announced on Friday that Akooramak Care of Older Persons would receive a $852,599 boost. The investment will allow for the provision of WiFi and air conditioning at Akooramak, as well as an upgrade of computer systems, a refresh of external paint, and ongoing maintenance. “Akooramak will use this funding to make sure our seniors, and their loved ones, don’t have to go through the anguish of searching

More than $800,000 has been committed to upgrading the Warwick aged care facility. far and wide for a place to receive care,” Mr Littleproud said. “I think it’s a tragedy when our seniors are

forced to move away from family, friends and community – move away from everything they’ve ever known – to a larger town or city to receive care as their needs change. “Funding for this project goes a long way to making sure our seniors feel comfortable – satisfied with the residence and close to their family and friends. Akooramak secured the significant investment through the federal government’s 2020 Aged Care Approvals Round, which Mr Littleproud said “goes some way” to creating an opportunity for seniors to stay closer to loved ones. More than $15 million is to be invested in five aged care facilities in the Maranoa electorate in this round of Aged Care Approvals funding, including in Goondiwindi, Chinchilla, Jandowae, Dalby and Warwick.

Valley set for more cabins By Dominique Tassell Council has passed a motion to allow the creation of three holiday cabins in Elbow Valley. The property at Bellinghams Road, Elbow Valley requested a Material Change of Use for the purpose of constructing three detached cabins The subject property is 0.825 hectares in size, and is currently vacant. It is zoned as Rural and has direct frontage to Bellinghams Road, which is a gravel constructed road. The proposed single storey cabins would consist of a kitchenette, ensuite and outdoor bath tub, open living area and bedroom, fireplace, and deck area. A public notification period was carried out and there was one submission received. The submitter’s concerns were taken onboard by Council and options for dealing with these were included in the proposal presented before Council. A neighbour raised concerns first over open fires at the cabins not being managed appropriately by visitors. Council in response imposed a condition for a bushfire management plan to be provided for approval and to be displayed in a prominent location within the cabins for guests to view. The condition also requests that open fire places/fire pits are addressed within the management plan.

Elbow Valley is set to get three new holiday cabins. The second concern was that a lack of fencing at the boundary of the property means patrons will not know the defined boundaries of the property and may traverse on the adjoining property to gain access to natural features in the locality, such as the Condamine River to the northeast. In response, Council imposed a condition that a four strand rural fence to be provided on the northern, eastern and southern boundaries. Signage should also be provided on the

fence line to deter patrons from accessing the adjoining rural lot. As trespassing is governed by legislation that is outside the jurisdiction of the requirements for assessing a development application either property owner can install their own signs on the fence. The neighbour also raised concerns about the risk of snake bites to visitors, as the nearby Sandy Creek is the natural habitat of several venomous snakes including the Eastern Brown snake.

Two cars crashed on a busy intersection in Warwick after one driver failed to give way. The crash occurred on the intersection of Cleary Street and Dragon Street at approximately 10:40am on 4 August. Two ambulance crews were called to the scene, and police were also present. Those involved in the crash sustained only minor injuries. A representative of Queensland Ambulance Service stated that those involved in the crash “self-extricated out of vehicle and declined transport to a hospital”. Officer in Charge Jamie Deacon stated that they had taken no action against anyone involved in the crash. “Investigations are continuing, but at this stage no one has been charged.” Officer Deacon stated that it was not a repeat intersection. QPS confirmed that later that night at 8pm, a hit and run at a local car park was also reported.

Man hospitalised after Albion Street crash Two cars collided on the corner of Victoria and Albion Streets, leaving one man in hospital. The crash occurred on 6 August at 11:32am. Paramedics transported a male patient in stable condition with back pain to Warwick hospital following a crash between a motorcycle and car.

other contacts took place in the jungles, paddy fields and mountain valleys of Phuoc Tuy Province and beyond as the Australians gradually gained control of their area of responsibility up until 1972. Biased American media coverage of the war, community dissatisfaction and a change of government led to Australia and USA withdrawing troops, leaving the beleaguered South Vietnamese military to defend their country which eventually fell to the communist North in 1975. Back home, Australian veterans were vilified by a community which had become hardened against the war. The veterans internalised this vilification, formed their own groups to support each other to remember those who came home in caskets and those who suffered both physically and mentally. It was the 1987 ‘Welcome Home Parade’ in Sydney in which thousands of veterans marched through the streets that the country began to recognise the sacrifice and service of veterans. Vietnam Veterans Day has now become a regular and significant memorial event on the Australian calendar. The Vietnam Veterans’ Service on 18 August at the Cenotaph starts at 10.45am.

Memories will come flooding back for veterans of the Vietnam War when they and their families meet to remember their service on Wednesday 18 August. Australia was involved in the war against communist insurgents and the North Vietnam regular army from 1962 for 10 years up until withdrawal in 1972 and saw 521 military people killed and hundreds more wounded. August 18, now Vietnam Veterans Day, marks the day in 1966 when the battle of Long Tan took place in Phuoc Tuy Province in which 18 Australians were killed and many more were wounded. D Company of the 6th Battalion, the Royal Australian Regiment, consisting of a little over 100 men, faced off against more than 2500 North Vietnamese regular troops and Viet Cong guerrilla fighters in a rubber plantation not far from the Australian Task Force Base at Nui Dat. Although no accurate count of enemy dead can be established, over 300 were counted next day and dozens of graves were found in the following years, many killed by accurate artillery fire from the Task Force Base. This battle saw more Australians killed

This would be remediated by the aforementioned fence. The documents before Council stated that the proposed cabins were complaint with the Rural zone code, as they do not conflict with rural land uses or the natural, scenic, and community values of area. In the Council meeting, Councillor Andrew Gale stated that he felt the neighbour’s concerns had been “adequately addressed by Council officers“. Councillor Cynthia McDonald agreed, stating that it was a well-written report and that the neighbour supported the new conditions. Councillor Stephen Tancred questioned the language of the document concerning the fence, asking if it was just “the language of planners“. A staff member stated that the four strand fence is “the bare minimum that we would require from them“. Councillor Tancred then questioned how many metres the cabins were from the boundary and whether this would form any problems. A staff member stated that “there is a condition in (the document) about some buffering to be maintained, which will help mitigate some of the impacts that are maybe caused with the joining rural activity“. The motion was moved by Councillor Cynthia McDonald, seconded by Councillor Marco Gliori, and moved unanimously.

Queensland Police Services say inquiries are continuing regarding the house fire on the corner of Quinn and Carmody Streets. The fire, reported to emergency services at 11:30pm on 2 August, left a house completely gutted. Police say they haven’t ruled anything out. The property was reportedly broken into in early June. Police ask that anyone with information please contact Warwick Police.

Thieves break glass for cigarettes A service station was broken into on 5 August, smashing glass to get inside. United Service Station on Helene Street was targeted at approximately 12:15am. Warwick Police confirmed that the thieves took “low values items” such as cigarettes. Investigations are ongoing.

Road closure plan By Dominique Tassell Southern Downs Regional Council has passed a motion to permanently close sections of First Avenue in Morgan Park. The closures were put forward to Council in two separate motions. The first application passed was requesting to close half the width, or 20 metres, of the road reserve. Several options were given for how to fix the issue, including constructing a new road and closing sections off. One of the options provided within the condition is for the applicant to undertake the process to permanently close First Avenue. If Council objects to this application and the Department of Resources refuse the road closure application, the applicant will be required to seal First Avenue, despite being provided with previous advice that a road closure was an acceptable alternative. The document stated that while it is not an ideal situation, Council needs to be mindful

that if the road is to be constructed it will be additional infrastructure to be maintained by Council in the future. Infrastructure Services stated they do not have an objection to the application for permanent road closure over part of First Avenue, Morgan Park. The Manager of Planning and Development stated that whilst having half the road reserve closed is not ideal, it does comply with the Negotiated Decision Notice dated 18 February 2020. The second motion dealt with a second portion of First Avenue. The document similarly debated constructing a new road or closing off part of the road. Previously in 2019, Council offered no objection to an application to close half of the width of First Avenue, Morgan Park adjoining the current application area, and amalgamate it with the property to the north of the road reserve. Infrastructure Services did not have an objection to the application for permanent road

closure over part of First Avenue, Morgan Park. Similar to the first motion, it was noted that any new construction would need to be maintained by Council. It was further noted that in this instance half of the road reserve has already been closed by the landowner to the north. In the Council meeting, Councillor Cynthia McDonald requested to know whether any neighbours had provided feedback on the proposed changes. A staff member responded that any consultation would have been handled by the Department of Natural Resources. Councillor Stephen Tancred questioned whether Council was satisfied that the adjoining properties will have adequate access after the road closure. A staff member responded that this was part o the purpose of the closure. The motion was then moved by Councillor Andrew Gale, seconded by Councillor Marco Gliori, and carried unanimously.

Students master clean energy concepts Last week, Assumption College’s Year 7 Science students learned all about how energy is collected from renewable resources. They investigated sources of renewable energy and tested out different blade sizes and combinations on turbines to see which produced the most power. Check out these pics from last week’s classes, courtesy of Assumption College.

The students enjoyed learning about renewable energy sources and, by testing variosu blade sizes, found that different turbines produced different levels of power. Pictures: SUPPLIED

Changes to waste facility By Jess Baker As the 2020-21 financial year drew to a close, Southern Downs Regional Council reviewed its progress in upgrading the Warwick and Stanthorpe waste facilities. In May this year, the council adopted a Waste Reduction and Recycling Plan for 2021-24. The plan revealed changes would be made at the Warwick landfill to extend its life, while Stanthorpe and Yangan landfills would become transfer stations. Stanthorpe was scheduled to close in 2021 due to the landfill reaching “economic capacity” and Yangan in June 2024 due to “the requirements to install a weighbridge in accordance with the State Waste Levy legislation”. The Warwick landfill will then be the only landfill for the Southern Downs. The council’s most recent quarterly progress report indicated several key developments had been made in the region’s waste sector between April and June 2021. According to the report, which was tabled at SDRC’s 28 July ordinary meeting, investigations had confirmed that constructing a new landfill cell at the Warwick site would ensure its continuity. The council’s current Waste Reduction and Recycling Plan estimated building a new cell in 2021 would extend the life of the landfill by an additional five and a half years to 2026-27. The report also stated a contract between SDRC and Burleigh Heads-based excavating contractor Hazell Bros had been signed and all civil works had been completed by 30 June. “Construction has been delayed slightly as a result of wet weather but the cell is expected to be operational in October 2021,” read the progress update. Civil works were also said to have been completed at the Stanthorpe Waste Facility by Johanson Earthmoving and Construction to ensure continuity, and a long haul shed built by R&F Steel Buildings. “Works to be completed included the sealing of the road network and concreting the apron in front of the long haul shed,” read the report. “The project is due to be completed (weather permitting) in late August.” The progress report also noted Endeavour Foundation had commenced supervising waste services on 1 July this year with “minimal issues”. Also from 1 July, the operational days of waste facilities at Allora and Killarney were changed from Friday to Tuesday to Friday to Monday and hours were reduced from 8am to 5pm to 9am to 4pm. Operating days and hours at Pratten, Leyburn, Maryvale, Yangan, Northern Granite Belt, Broadwater and Wallangarra waste transfer stations were reduced from four days a week to three days a week, and from 8am to 5pm to 9am to 4pm. Warwick and Stanthorpe facilities were kept open seven days a week, but operating hours at both sites were reduced to 8am to 5pm.

Q&A

with Andrew Kendall

This week, the Warwick and Stanthorpe Today team had the pleasure of catching up with St Joseph’s School Stanthorpe Principal, community member, and family man Andrew Kendall. Andrew is likely a familiar face to many who live on the Granite Belt, but here are some things you probably didn’t know about him:

OUR REGION’S BEST

THREE … Ways To Support Local With local businesses impacted by the recent lockdown, it’s more important than ever to support local. Here are three easy ways to do so this week.

What made you want to be a school principal? The opportunity to work with children and dedicated staff to give students the opportunity to be the best they can be. What kind of student were you? I was a model student, hard working and very involved in the extracurricular life of the school. What’s your favourite thing to do on the Granite Belt? Going for a walk around Quart Pot Creek. What do you do to relax? Building Lego and watching good TV shows. What’s something people may not know about you? I’m the current President of the Australian Bravery Association. What’s the best book you’ve read and movie you watched? Best book is Red Storm Rising by Tom Clancy and best movie is, Saving Private Ryan. Where did you live before Stanthorpe? Kenmore in Brisbane. Favourite place to eat out in town? Red Rooster because it’s close to the school, and very convenient. What’s the most interesting place you’ve visited? Kennedy Space Centre in Florida and the Pyramids in Egypt. What motivates you? Developing the facilities and programs within the school.

Visit your local cafe Buying your daily coffee at the local cafe is an easy way support local businesses, and if you’d rather drink instant at home you can also support local by buying milk brands like Norco. You can also treat yourself to the big breakfast, all in the name of supporting local.

Visit the local farmers market Getting your fruit and veg from the local farmers market or fruit shop is an easy way to give money to local businesses without much effort, because everyone needs their fruit and veg. Buy some Stanthorpe Cheese from the local shop and then treat yourself to some bakery-fresh bread to go with it.

Buy from your local winery While it’s totally possible to buy local wines elsewhere, going directly to the source is a worthwhile experience. Make a day out of it with your significant other, your friends, or even your mum. Try traditional favourites like Merlot, Shiraz and Chardonnay, or try alternative variety wines like petit verdot, gewurztraminer or durif.

COMMUNITY FOCUS WarwickStanthorpeToday.com.au

Warwick Bridge Club... By Neil Bonnell, Warwick Bridge Club Congratulations to Mavis Simpson and Denise Hartwig on their second place in last weekend’s Butler Pairs in Toowoomba and to Tony Hinde and Havah Nielsen who, on the weekend before, won the Novice section of the Darling Downs Zone Pairs. After a slow morning’s session, Tony and Havah came second in the afternoon session. They scored well on Board 16 by making 5D and sharing a top score. At two-thirds of the tables East/West were allowed to play in spades with varying success. Havah, sitting South, received the lead of the Ace of clubs. No doubt West had thought long and deep about possible leads and developed a plan to follow the Ace with a small club to partner’s presumed King. Partner would then return a small for West to trump. When partner presumably played the eight of clubs, advising partner not to continue with a club, West had nowhere to go. It was too late for the heart lead which would have defeated the contract. As it was, declarer now had control of the hand. Trumps were drawn in three rounds, four clubs were cashed to go with five trumps and two outside Aces. Many a bridge player has cause to remember Rabbie Burns’ warning: The best laid plans o’mice and men Gang aft agley And leave naught but grief and pain For promised joy. Results: Monday, 02/08/21 (5-table Mitchell): N/S N.Collins M. Simpson (58.7) 1; N. Bonnell T. Hinde (53.7) 2. E/W Jenny Smith Jill Smith

The latest contribution from Rose City Writers, this week from FLEUR LIND...

Cornered and caught I have always been one for a quiet life, I don’t get into the glitz and glamour or the night or bright lights of Hollywood. You can keep all that. My friends are on adverts on TV but that’s not my vibe at all. I am the odd one who just wants to hide away somewhere, but let me tell you that is not easy when you are as famous as I am. I’m a household name. Most people have heard of me, and I blame that on very effective marketing. Before the flashy adverts happened, we just bumbled along with others of our kind, anonymous and inconspicuous. But not anymore! The lengths I will go to hide, are becoming extreme. I must sharpen up my smarts, think on the run, and move faster. I am dark brown, and that is not being racist, it’s a fact… so I am usually easily missed in a darkened room. But not today! I had two of them on my case today. They were very pleasant and helpful, as they always are, but the fact remained; they were going to do their utmost to find me and throw me out. Why can’t they just leave me be? Then they had a guessing game…what was it that was stuck in the corner at the back against the wall beside the fridge? I wasn’t stuck at all; I had wedged myself in on purpose. I really thought I was home free because the vacuum cleaner had too wide a head and the sucky thing couldn’t get close enough to obliterate me. That, just quietly, is one of my biggest fears. Being sucked up by a Dyson and catapulted at dangerously high-speed into the barrel. I would whizz around, joining the other debris, putting superman to shame and make a hell of a racket as my hard outer casing clanged and crashed again the plastic. Can

you imagine a worse fate? Back to my perilous state in the corner… their arms were not long enough to reach me, but I still held my breath. Would they give up and move on? No. Of course not. Who doesn’t like the thrill of the chase? If you are the chaser it’s fun, but fan is far removed if you are the hunted. And then, their quick thinking was my undoing. Out came the broom stick. I for one, am not partial to a broomstick going anywhere near me; the bristles at the other end are bad enough! The round-ended wooden pole prodded me, wiggled, and giggled me out of my corner, as they continued guessing what I could be, and slowly I was bought out into the light of the kitchen. There I was, exposed! So embarrassing! The game was over, and my time was up. The writing was on the wall in humiliatingly large letters. One of them declared, “Oh! Look at that! It’s a Malteser!’ The other was surprised, “It must have rolled out of the packet and under the fridge!” “Well, it’s going in the bin now, that doesn’t look like a mouthful of deliciousness at all.” And that was that. I was discarded most unceremoniously into the bin on the other side of the fridge. Maybe I was wrong. Maybe there is something to being in front of the glitzy lights of Hollywood. I could have been a secret agent, rolling along a counter with the breeze from the desk fan pushing me along as the counter staff secretly share me around. That wouldn’t be so bad, I suppose. I’ll definitely apply for casting roles. Maybe in my next life? I wonder what I will be…a KitKat or a liquorice all sort?

The Guide FRIDAY

TOP PICKS OF THE WEEK

BROOKLYN NINE-NINE SBS, 9.30pm

MONDAY

LOGAN 7MATE, 8.30pm

Hugh Jackman (left) dons Wolverine’s claws for the final time for this surprisingly thoughtful addition to the X-Men universe. It is the not-too-distant future, and a bitter and broken Logan is trying to keep a low profile as he cares for the ailing Professor Xavier (Patrick Stewart), whose deteriorating brain is wreaking havoc all over the place. Into this desolate reality comes a young girl, (Dafne Keen), the first new mutant seen in dozens of years – and she has a connection to our brooding hero.

SUNDAY

THE NEWSREADER ABC TV, 8.30pm

Set in the un-politically correct ’80s, The Newsreader is poised to be one of the breakout shows of the year. Created and co-written by Matt Lucas (Five Bedrooms) and directed by Emma Freeman (Puberty Blues), the biting and moving six-episode miniseries premieres tonight. Anna Torv (Fringe, right) is uncompromising newsreader Helen, who struggles to be taken seriously by her superiors. Just before a tumultuous set of events, including the launch of the Space Shuttle Challenger and the Russell Street bombing, she ﬁnds herself paired with a new co-anchor: inexperienced, ambitious newcomer Dale (Sam Reid, Lambs of God). William McInnes stars as the power-hungry heads of news.

MONDAY

THE VOICE SEVEN, 7.30pm

There are few shows that can settle in comfortably anywhere. When it comes to the singing juggernaut The Voice, fans will follow wherever it wanders, and so will the stars. At its new home on Seven, the mega reality TV show has hardly needed to ﬁnd its groove. New coach Jessica Mauboy brings enthusiasm and candour, while familiar mentors Rita Ora (The Voice UK) and Keith Urban (The Voice Australia season one) join returning coach Guy Sebastian (above) with their own particular self-assured presence. As always, veteran host Sonia Kruger scores all the points for pizzazz and style. Tonight, the most unpredictable, aﬀecting slice of the show, the blind auditions, continue.

The antics, pranks, tomfoolery and occasional crime fighting of the 99th precinct at the NYPD are coming to a close. Tonight, the cop comedy premieres its eighth and final season; it’s an impressive feat considering the show got the chop but came back from the dead after season five, thanks in part to its steadfast fanbase who petitioned for the Andy Samberg-led comedy to be revived. There are even more gags and hijinks as the cast, including Andre Braugher as Raymond Holt, and writers make the most of their final 10 episodes but, in an admirable and gutsy move, the issues of the Black Lives Matter movement and the worldwide pandemic are traversed.

Andre Braugher stars in Brooklyn Nine-Nine

Denny delivers the cheer By Dominique Tassell Matt Denny might have been 5cm off a medal, but he’s cemented himself as one of Australia’s golden boys. Matt says the competition was “good fun” even though the “5cm is still killing me”. He says “I never thought I’d be so frustrated with that performance”. He says he’s “still happy with how we performed” and “my team is so happy”, but it’s hard knowing he had “more in the tank”. Matt says he knew he could throw 68m but was just off. He says “it’s hard to not be happy with it” but “to know I had more there was definitely very frustrating”. “I’m still super happy.” He says he’s dealing with “a lot of mixed emotions” and he’s “still processing” his fourth place success. Matt says it’s “so amazing” how much support he got, from people all over the country. He says he’s received “so many messages of support and everyone has been extremely kind”. “I’m spending around ten hours a day trying to get back to everyone. “I don’t know how to describe it.” He says he’s received messages from people he doesn’t know, or who didn’t know much about the sport prior to this Olympics, saying they were yelling in pubs in support of him.

“That’s amazing for me, I want to bring attention to my sport” He says the interest about athletics in this Olympics was incredible to see, especially discus. When asked about the comments online praising his larrikin energy, he says he’s just glad his personality translated on screen. “I enjoy bringing a bit of personality to the sport, bringing that comedy side.” Matt says it’s important to him to relax in between throws. “You get drained, you need to switch off, so I enjoy mucking around while resting and in between throws.” Matt is currently in quarantine at Howard Springs in the Northern Territory, and said he had about “nine days left” on 9 August. He says he’ll be glad to have some time off, and is taking about two weeks off then getting back into it. “Not too much time off,” he says. He says he hasn’t had a holiday in a long time, and is looking forward to going for a drive and staying somewhere not too far off from home. He’s eager to catch up with family, especially his fiance and their new dog. Matt has the world championships and commonwealth games to prep for, so his newfound fans can see plenty more of him soon. Matt Denny might have been 5cm off a medal, but he’s cemented himself as one of Australia’s golden boys.

Our own bronze medallist Hudson still on cloud nine By Dominique Tassell Warwick’s own Harriet Hudson is a bronze medal winner. Alongside teammates Caitlin Cronin, Rowena Meredith, and Ria Thompson, Hudson, 23, represented Australia in Tokyo at the Olympics’ women’s quadruple sculls A final event on Wednesday 28 July. China placed first and Poland second. It was tight race, with a nail biting sprint to bronze at the very end between Australia and Italy. Italy placed fourth, followed by Germany and Netherlands. Hudson rowed the third seat of the Australian quad, the team placing fourth in the women’s sculls event on Friday 23 July and first in the repechage on Sunday 25 July to qualify for the A final. The quad won gold at the final Olympic qualification regatta in Lucerne, Switzerland in May this year, and trained in Rockhampton in the lead-up to Tokyo. Hudson is now a two-time national senior

champion, a twice silver medal winner at World U23 Champions, and a bronze-winning Olympian. After the win, Harriet said “honestly, I still cannot believe it”. She said the team “are absolutely on cloud nine over here”. “Enjoying every moment of the celebrations.” Since the event, Harriet and her teammates have been in hotel quarantine. Harriet showed off a care package from Sydney Rowing Club on her Instagram story 9 August, complete with quarantine essentials like cheese and wine. Plenty of locals were cheering Harriet on, with Little Gallery Cafe on Palmerin Street setting up a window display. When in training, Harriet said getting to represent Australia in the Olympics was “a dream come true”. She and her team trained three times a day in preparation, training in a “heat training room” that was around 32C and at least

Andrew Randell, Caitlin Cronin, Harriet Hudson, Rowena Meredith, and Ria Thompson. 80 per cent humidity to prepare themselves for the Tokyo weather. She said it was all about team work, stating that “you can be really fit and strong but if the crew isn’t in perfect harmony it’ll be hard”. Harriet said she’ll “savour the little things like going out to brunch” when she has some downtime.”

Local kids get inspired By Jess Baker

Following two weeks of non-stop sporting action at the Tokyo 2020 Olympics, and last month’s announcement Brisbane would host the Games in 2032, the next generation of athletes are ready to make their presence felt. Granite Belt Little Athletics centre manager Toni Jackson said with so much talent in the region, there was certainly potential for a local athlete to represent Australia at the 2032 Olympics. She said recent results from local school carnivals and the Granite Belt Zone Athletics Championships demonstrated impressive skill and dedication. “It really is exciting to see the great sportsmanship and determination of the children,” Toni said. “And the children really listened to their teachers who gave them constructive feedback on their performances and how to improve their results.” Toni said with so many local athletes showing promise, it was difficult to predict who would be competing at the 2032 Games. Rather, she said the team at Granite Belt Little Athletics would do what they could to encourage children to continue in their chosen sport while supporting their families. “It’s all about the kids having fun, making friends and hopefully the displays of sportsmanship we have seen at the Tokyo Olympics

will help to inspire the children to continue with their sport,” Toni said. One young Little Athletics athlete who has been motivated by the 2020 Games is 13-yearold Stanthorpe State High School student Jacob Kent. Jacob has been dubbed one of the club’s most notable athletes by Granite Belt Little Athletics representative Daniel O’Dea, having recently placed second in Australia for Under 13 Discus at the 2021 Little Athletics National Challenge. He also recently participated at the Queensland School Sports Athletics Championships where he won a gold medal and secured a place on the Queensland team, later winning second place at the Australian Track and Field Championships for Discus. Jacob said it was a goal of his to compete in the Discus event at the Olympics one day. He said he felt inspired after watching 25-year-old Allora man Matthew Denny do exactly that just last week at the Tokyo 2020 Olympic Games. Granite Belt Little Athletics’ Daniel O’Dea said it could be difficult for “country kids” to train for competitions, as training often meant travelling long distances multiple times a week. “But country kids are built with resilience,” Daniel said.

Gold medallist from Warwick relives his experience By Jess Baker The memories came flooding back to former Warwick man Dean Butler last week when the Australian men’s hockey team, the Kookaburras, competed for gold at the Tokyo 2020 Olympic Games. The team fell agonisingly short of the win, losing to Belgium on penalties in the gold medal final match on Thursday 5 August. Dean said the game was reminiscent of his own team’s performance at the 2004 Games in Athens, where the Kookaburras finally ended Australia’s men’s hockey hoodoo. “The score was pretty similar the whole way through,” Dean said. “One all, the type of contest it was, and how tough of a game it was.” Dean’s game was so tough, in fact, that he had to come off the field just before half-time

to get stiches in the back of his head. He was off for just 15 minutes. “We went to extra time and we scored right at the end of the extra time,“ he said. “(It was a) bit of a shame that their game didn’t get extra time.” Player Jamie Dwyer scored a goal in the eighth minute of extra time, the Kookaburras beating two-time defending champion the Netherlands 2-1. Dean said winning gold was “a bit of a weight off the shoulders” after the team had spent the four to six years prior training. “Just the emotion of training for that long …“ he said. “Australia had come so close so many times so it was pretty exciting for Australia to win the finals.“ The Kookaburras have not won since. Dean now resides in Cairns, after leaving

Warwick at 18 years old. He attended Warwick East State School then Warwick State High School, playing hockey from age five until just last year. He has represented Australia more than 200 times. Highlights of his career include winning a silver medal at the 2006 Men’s Hockey World Cup in Kuala Lumpur, a silver medal at the 2002 World Cup in Molhengladbach, and a gold medal at the 1997 Junior World Cup Milton Keynes. Dean said he had stayed in touch with his teammates from the 2004 Olympic Games, speaking to a number of them just prior to last week’s Olympic gold final. The Kookaburras have an impressive track record, finishing no lower than sixth since the first team competed at Melbourne in 1956. Over the years, they have won five bronze medals, three silver and one gold.

Remembering golden era By Jess Baker Three weeks ago, as Brisbane was announced the host of the 2032 Olympics and Paralympics, a Stanthorpe local stumbled upon a weathered box of 1908 Olympic memorabilia in his home. Local resident, rural firefighter, and OAM recipient James Massey had uncovered a handful of antique medals and a 1908 Olympic Judge badge that had belonged to his grandfather, Tom Merry. Born in Birmingham in the late 1870s, Tom was an award-winning boxer, wrestler, weightlifter and boxing and wrestling Olympic Judge at the fourth Olympics in London. He also served in World War I, during which time he was promoted to Major in the field in France and was mentioned six times in dispatches. Tom went on to marry James’ grandmother Marjorie Styles, who was born in Melbourne. Marjorie was the granddaughter of James William Styles, the first senator for Victoria and one of the six fathers of Federation.

Tom passed away in 1954, when James was just three years old, but James assured his legacy lives on. “My mother gave (the medals and judge’s badge) to me,” James said. “I actually took them down and showed two of my grandsons those medals, and for a 14-year-old and an 11-year-old, and with the Olympic games being on, I think they thought it was pretty cool.” Tucked away with Tom’s Olympic Judge badge in a tiny tin box were wrestling, weightlifting, and boxing first-place medals from the Birmingham Athletics Club. Tom had earned the awards in the early 1900s, both before and after the fourth Olympics in 1908. “So he obviously was very, very much a fit, athletic man then,” James said. “(He) must have still been a competitive person at that time.” The tin box of memories now in James’ possession also has a story of its own. The box had been passed from Tom, to his daughter – James’ mother – and then to James

many years ago. But in 1991, whilst in James’ possession, it was briefly thought to be lost forever. “That tin box was inside a safe in our house when it burned down in 1991,” James said. “All those little wooden boxes that his medals were in, all the glue melted and the boxes fell apart.” Somehow, Tom’s medals and Olympic judge badge survived unscathed. James said the treasured accolades would one day be passed down to his own children, then his children’s children, and so on. As would a saying of Tom’s: “idiots pick fights, because you never know how good the other man is”. James said sport had always been a big part of his life, and that of his family’s, and it really is no wonder why. He said he was thrilled to hear the 2032 Olympics would be held in Brisbane, a short three-hour drive from Stanthorpe. “For people from all over the world to come and experience our wine will be a wonderful thing,” James said.

Region gears up for the 2032 Games in Queensland By Jess Baker Last month, on Wednesday 21 July, Brisbane was announced the host of the 2032 Olympic Games. The news was welcomed by most everyone on the Southern Downs and Granite Belt, but some have argued a lack of tourism promotion will mean the region cannot fully capitalise on the potential at hand. Stanthorpe Chamber of Commerce president Graham Parker said the Games would positively impact the Granite Belt business community, being in a “goldilocks zone” so close to Brisbane. “Our international exposure to tourism is fairly minimal so it’ll give us an opportunity to market ourselves during that period of time,” Graham said. “We might see more businesses attracted to the region so there’s a lot of opportunities there but it depends on what happens over the next few years with Covid.” Warwick Chamber of Commerce president Julia Keogh said the Games would certainly help local hospitality and tourism sectors gain intrastate, interstate and international exposure, but the Southern Downs would need to step up its tourism promotion efforts. “The announcement of the 2032 Olympics being held in Brisbane and surrounding LGAs is certainly fantastic news for our region, with opportunities to host training camps in the lead up to the main events,”

Brisbane was named the official host of the 2032 Olympics on Wednesday 21 July. Julia said. “However, the Warwick Chamber does have concerns regarding how our Southern Downs region can be positively promoted as one of the prominent tourism destinations for the 2032 Olympics, when we do not have a dedicated regional tourism body.”

ARE YOU LOOKING FOR

Julia said that while Southern Downs Regional Council financially supports Granite Belt Wine Country, the northern region of the Southern Downs “continues to miss out on a coordinated tourism promotion approach”. “The Warwick Chamber of Commerce has lobbied SDRC for half of the funding pro-

vided to (Granite Belt Wine Country) however has been unsuccessful, instead receiving the same amount of funding provided to the Stanthorpe Chamber of Commerce,” she said. She said not having a tourism body for the northern end of the Southern Downs would impact the community’s ability to showcase the entire region. The Chamber’s Executive Committee will table their concerns at a meeting with Southern Downs Mayor Vic Pennisi and chief executive officer Dave Burges later this month. Mayor Pennisi said that while the Games were still more than a decade away, he had begun speaking with neighbouring council mayors about what they could do to prepare. He said the Southern Downs region could very well be a place Olympians come to train in the lead up to the Games. “We’ve got a velodrome, we’ve got an Olympic-standard trap for trap shooting here,” Cr Pennisi said. “We’ve got an Olympic-standard hockey field … (and) the horse eventing that’s out at Morgan Park.“ He said Storm King Dam could also be ideal for rowers training for the Olympics. Warwick Chamber’s Julia Keogh said the previous Southern Downs Regional Council administration under Mayor Tracy Dobie also tried to showcase the local region as the ideal host for training camps for sports including cycling, equestrian, hockey, soccer, rugby, and basketball.

Rural Links This week on the farm By Judy Barnet, Farm Columnist There is never a dull moment on the farm and this week was no exception. Pregnancy Testing of the sheep is always an exciting time – will that old ewe I should have got rid of last year be in lamb? Will there be any triplets? The five recently purchased very expensive stud ewes I call the wild bunch – on arrival at the farm they hit the loading ramp running and bolted to the far end of the hill paddock, staying as far away from the ram as they could possibly get – would they even be in lamb? We are lucky to have Bruce Toms close by in our local area, he runs a company called Flockscan that does ultrasound pregnancy testing in sheep. His services enable us to make good decisions in the management of our flock – sheep having single lambs are allowed to return to the hill country with the Alpacas, ewes having twins or triplets are kept in smaller paddocks closer to the homestead where we can monitor them more closely and give extra feed if necessary. Ewes not in lamb can be culled if feed is short, otherwise sometimes given a second chance. Every year when I book Bruce he reminds me to take the rams out six weeks after joining, every year he arrives and asks me which date I removed the rams and I mumble something about not quite getting around to it. Farmers generally have a joining window so they don’t get “straggler” lambs and odds and sods that don’t look good in the sale pen as they are smaller (younger) then the main bunch. This year we are expecting three sets of Triplets (surprise surprise – two of these sets are from the Wild Bunch), 22 sets of twins, 15 Singles and eight “stragglers” only just in lamb plus a few empties for reasons unknown. Lambing for a selected few was due to start on 1 August although the bulk will lamb early September, so far none of the ewes have popped so maybe by next week I will have some photos for you. A few of the goats are not far away either. Monday was a perfect blue sky Queensland day so I closed my eyes to the housework and washing and went outside in the garden. Pruning the roses until my fingers blistered, I stood back to look and had instant regrets – had I gone too far? Spring will tell I guess. I left one bush – my favourite – I am not sure what it is however I am guessing it is very old. This rose is a standard, around five feet tall, and every year it has huge apricot blousy

blooms with a beautiful perfume and big rosy red rosehips. Since the drought it has looked quite sickly with more dead wood than live branches, I am a bit nervous about pruning it. I am proud of my vegie gardens, I have seven all in old cut off rainwater tanks. This year we have had bumper crops of everything thanks to the good rainfall. Visitors to the cottage enjoy picking their own vegetables for dinner as well as an assortment of herbs. Stinging nettles are also part of the parcel and do catch a few unsuspecting children!

Next week I will tell you about some of the renovation projects underway on the farm and about how some cottage guests have contributed to the direction of our future on the farm. August Farming Calendar With an unusually wet winter be on the lookout for wormy sheep – you can take a poo sample – most local produce stores sell Worm Test Kits you can post off with the sample. Barbers Pole worm will be very active now with the couple of warmer days we have had and can kill very quickly. Mineral Blocks – for Sheep, Goats, Horses and Cattle Mineral Blocks are essential in

Winter – they will only lick what they need. Lambing Paddock – depending on when you lamb now may be the time to move ewes into a fresh paddock for lambing. Fox Control – August is baiting time, not everyone baits but there are other things you can do – I put Alpaca with my lambing ewes and also use foxlights – solar lights that flash intermittent colours and patterns at night. An electric fence wire on the top and bottom of your existing fence will stop Renyard from digging under or climbing over. Have a great week everyone and stay safe.

Smaller yardings were the norm at the weekly sales. Cattle numbers were back to 598 whilst sheep and lamb numbers dropped to 714. Pig and poultry numbers were on a par with the previous week’s sales. The lower numbers did little to deter the buyers as the prices for all grades were firm to a shade dearer. Cattle numbers Vealer steers averaged 587.6c to a top of 700c/kg or $1567.92 to a top of $2091.81 Vealer heifers averaged 538.2c to a top of 590.2c/kg or $1251.70 to a top of $1897.04 Feeder steers averaged 501.8c to a top of 590.2c/kg or $2091.32 to a top of $2531.27 Feeder heifers averaged 443.5c to a top of 496.2c/kg or $1680.39 to a top of $2183.28 Yearling steers averaged 547.5c to a top of 584.2c/kg or $1597.74 to a top of $2213.52 Yearling heifers averaged 466c to a top of 558.2c/kg or $1590.90 to a top of $1858.98 Steers averaged 431.7c to a top of 568.2c/kg or $2224.57 to a top of $2507 Heifers averaged 366.2c to a top of 402.2c/kg or $1710.41 to a top of $2123.96 Manufacturing steers averaged 400.2c or $2641.32 to a top of $2761.38 Cows averaged 308.1c to a top of 343.2c/kg or $1696.21 to a top of $2345.20 Bulls averaged 385.2c to a top of 564.2c/kg or $1797.48 to a top of $2904.57 Sheep and lamb numbers Lambs topped at $229 to average $171.77 a $5 drop week on week Hoggets topped at $200 to average $182 a $9 increase week on week Ewes topped at $165 to average $124 a $35 drop week on week

Focus On WARWICK COWBOYS Cowboys kicking goals By Candyce Grew Three Warwick Cowboys players celebrated special milestones at the weekend with Reserve Grade coach Aaron McVeigh racking up his 200th game for the club and A Grade players Harry Sullivan and Joe Fuimaono hitting their first century. Warwick Cowboys A Grade coach Matt Grew said rugby league was one of the greatest team sports, however within the team sport was room for individual achievements. “Not a lot of people play for a club for that long these days, it’s so easy to move on from clubs,” Grew said. “For players to achieve these milestones is a big individual effort. “The Cowboys is a club that has a lot of players that have achieved high game counts and it’s a testament to the culture of the club and people wanting to stay here and play for the Cowboys. “Clubs are built on culture and the current culture at the Cowboys is second to none.” The Cowboys A Grade side defeated Souths Tigers on Sunday 26-22 at Clive Berghofer Stadium in Toowoomba despite having some key players out due to the Covid-19 lockdown in 11 SEQ council regions. “We led 20 nil at half time,” Grew said. “Co-captain Sam Broomhall was good and led the side well. “Unfortunately, Josh Cruice got knocked out with 10 minutes to go but has thankfully recovered okay.“ Reserve Grade assistant coach Nick Baker said coming from an unexpected week off, the team would have to quickly get back into the groove against Souths. “Back-to-back penalties and a quality kick led to Souths scoring the opening try,” Baker said. “We knew we had to lift and this we did with Jeb Jerome crossing a few sets later for his first of two tries, also earning him Best Back honours against his former team. “The next 15 minutes saw both sides fighting for ascendancy in the middle third of the field and a lapse in defence on our goal line led to Souths crossing for a try, meaning we went into half time with scores locked at 12 apiece.“ Coach Aaron McVeigh said the majority of the second half was a carbon copy of the 15-minute period from the first half where both packs rolled up their sleeves in an attempt to gain the upper hand. “An inspiring performance off the bench especially during this period is what led to David Hughes getting the Player’s Player mug,” McVeigh said. “A brilliant solo effort, as well as some superb support play off a line break from

Pictures: SUPPLIED Jordyn Hogden led to Brodie Quirk grabbing a second half double and it was up to our defence to get us home once again and that it did, keeping Souths to one try in the second half.” The Warwick Cowboys ran away with the win 24-18. The Warwick Cowboys Under 18s and Women’s sides had a bye. This Saturday night the Warwick Cowboys will face the Goondwindi Boars at Father Ranger Oval. Matt Grew said it would be interesting to see what would happen with Covid-19 restrictions and their impact on player availability across the Toowoomba Rugby League competition. “Gundy are the top of the table, they are the benchmark team for the competition,” Grew said. “With two games left before finals, we will need to play consistent footy to get ourselves ready to play finals football in a couple of weeks’ time. “There is no better to way to get a gauge on how you are travelling leading into finals than by playing the team on the top of the table.” Gates to Father Ranger Oval will open at 1pm on Saturday with the Women’s game at 2.15pm, Under 18s from 3.30pm, Reserve Grade at 5pm and A Grade starting at 6.30pm.

OLD BOYS’ DAY The Warwick Cowboys Old Boys’ Association will host its annual Old Boys’ Day next Saturday, 21 August. Old Boys’ president Shaun O’Leary said the association within the Cowboys was designed to keep former players involved in the club. “Their playing days may be over but as former players or officials are a valuable part of the club’s history and at least once a year that is something that should be celebrated,” O’Leary said. “Old Boys’ Day enables us to get together and tell some stories, have a laugh and watch the next generation play. “It also raises valuable funds which ultimately goes back to the club.” The Old Boys’ will have a marquee set up on Pincha’s Hill and will provide a barbeque dinner and drink tickets for members. Anyone who is not an Old Boys’ member is welcome to attend the event, they will just be required to pay $8 entry at the gate and $25 to get into the marquee. The Old Boys’ have also organised special jerseys for A Grade players to wear on the night which will be auctioned after the game. Luke Costello will also perform live music. It will be a big night for the club with the

James and Mandy Marsh are this year celebrating 10 years as the owners of Stanthorpe Mechanical and Wrecking. The family-owned business has been an integral part of the local community for more than 20 years, offering friendly and affordable customer service and keen attention to detail. Mandy said the last decade has seen a number of changes within the business. “We’ve expanded the ‘trailer spare parts’ range and we do a lot more mechanical work here now, as well as the wrecking side of things,” she said. Stanthorpe Mechanical and Wrecking offers a wide range of new and used parts, including windscreens, supercharge batteries, Ironman 4x4 suspension kits, bullbars, fridges, and LED lights. It is also home to an automotive workshop, where the business’ experienced team completes services, checks, and repairs at affordable prices. Living up to its reputation as a community-minded business, Stanthorpe Mechanical and Wrecking this year decided to sponsor a young ambassador for the 2022 Apple and Grape Harvest Festival. “I just thought after the couple of years that we are going through it would be a good thing to do, plus it would ben-

Mr Luck, 71, has been described as a “fit and experienced” hiker - who loved Girraween above all other National Parts. More on page 3

Vaccine plea to community In the almost 53 odd years I’ve been on this earth, I’ve had the occasional health “drama”. Most of us have. Some lengthy, some short term and some as a consequence or as a reaction to some other medical process or medication that had been placed into my body. Fortunately, all of those “dramas” have had a happy outcome and I have gone on to continue to populate this planet. I’d like to put those experiences into the context of our current pandemic. It’s certainly been a roller coaster ride for the last 18 months of Covid-inspired madness. However, I’m thankful that each passing day takes us closer to an eventual resolution. As our Prime Minister has said, and continues to say, “Australia gets vaccinated, Australia is able to live differently.” I will also take this opportunity as an elected member in this local community to reinforce and endorse the Federal and State Government’s messages relating to Covid-19, and to specifically encourage my fellow community members to get vaccinated. I’d also like to acknowledge, that whilst any medical procedure or drug may pose a small risk to a very small number of people, I’d like to reassure, by my experience. My vaccination was uneventful. Catching the virus and transmitting it in my community, has a larger risk. I weighed this up before making my decision to get vaccinated. And get vaccinated I did. My wife and I made appointments, (it did involve a little waiting on the phone but we got there in the end). We walked in. I waited for my name to be called. Rolled my sleeve up and was jabbed with the needle full of potentially blood-clot forming vaccine. Yes, that very one. A few drops of blood followed the extraction of the needle, (unfortunately it jabbed a bit of an old sunspot on the way in) but this was rapidly rectified by the application of a band-aid. We waited the 15 minutes or so we went home.

Over the next few days we paid attention to our vital signs and I am pleased to announce we have survived and are both looking forward to our second dose. Now only around 3 weeks away. As I mentioned before, I have been sick once or twice in my life and even had a reaction to a medical procedure previously. On all of those occasions I noticed something was wrong and sought and received medical attention. I saw this as no different. I have also stood alongside my wife and our children as they have had medical procedures and acted accordingly if anything appeared unusual. I’m not about to stop getting medical treatment for any problems that may afflict me in the future. I will ask questions of my Doctors and weigh up the risks but overwhelmingly, I will continue to put my faith in the medical community and science and seek out the expertise of those thus trained in the future as the need arises. Each day takes us closer to an eventual resolution. Getting vaccinated will help us get on top of this and back to normal life as soon as possible. I commend you to roll your sleeves up and do your bit. – Andrew Gale, Warwick

Hats off to Southern Downs Regional Council! As relatively new residents in Stanthorpe we were hesitant to approach the Council re the state of the foot path outside our home that was a dangerous trip hazard for my elderly husband and others walking the street. On the 15th July a request was sent via Email, and to our utter amazement within ten days a team of maintenance men arrived with soil to repair footpath. We have appreciated the prompt response and thank the Council workers for their help. – Lavinia and John Reid, Stanthorpe

‘Green wrecking balls’ Claiming to save the world from the global warming ghosts, climate alarmists are smashing our future with Green Wreaking Balls.

Greens say they love trees. However their policies destroy ridge-line forests to make room for subsidised bird-chopping wind turbines with their clear-felled spider-webs of roads and transmission lines. They also encourage fierce forest firestorms by preventing the protective patchwork of the many small fires once lit by Aboriginals and pastoralists. We have a choice – many small fires or a few huge wildfires. Greens have also forced foresters out of the forests, thus removing their practical forest conservation. Green agendas have also resulted in clearing forests to feed distant power stations with “green” wood pellets and to make room for biofuel plantations. The solar panels they subsidise are smothering grasslands and farms with landscapes of sun-stealing plastic shades (made in China). And where they use mirrors to focus solar heat, birds get roasted on the wing. Not content with destroying forests and farmland with the plastic, steel and concrete clutter of the green energy twins, turbines and panels are now wearing out and loading landfills with un-degradable plastic waste. Once Australia had cheap reliable electricity powered by coal and hydro but Green Wrecking Balls are destroying coal power in favour of those unreliable and intermittent energy twins – wind and solar. This has made electricity expensive and unreliable, with zero measurable benefit for the climate. Green Wreckers are also destroying Australia’s water security and flood mitigation by opposing new dams and weirs and by wasting stored water on “environmental flows”. Droughts and floods will come again. There is a green agenda, but it’s more about world government than about the environment. It is time to start wrecking the Green Wrecking Balls. – Viv Forbes, Washpool

Response: Last week’s letters I wasn’t going to bother responding to ’Mr Anonymous Dam Brigader’ whose letter seems childish and full of misinformation. But in the end some things shouldn’t be let go. Your claim that connecting Connolly Dam

LETTERS

to Storm King Dam would not work is totally refuted by our recent experience as well as modelling done by experts. Secondly what does the modelling say about Emu Swamp Dam in a severe drought? It says that when Storm King is empty Emu Swamp will be as well. Common sense really. Both dams are close together on the same river system – why would you expect any difference? Connolly Dam which saved us last time is on a different river system and experiences different rain events and micro climate patterns. Connecting to it is a recommendation from experts commissioned by SDRC! Thirdly, you claim that POW dispute the Badu report. If so why would POW make the report available to anyone through links on their website if they disputed it? Do you wish people not to read the 10.6. 20 Badu report because it’s modelling shows that Emu Swamp is 90 per cent viable only if the dam proponents can get 2300 million litres annually from upstream? (A water allocation it does not currently have.) It also specifically advises GBIP to acquire 400 million litres per annum from the Storm King Dam allocation. ( i.e. our town water allocation.) Your claim that SDRC can sell its unused water has not been strongly supported by the Queensland State Government modelling which has been provided to council. Can I suggest that you actually read the various reports instead of voicing opinion or spin. (You will know which one applies.) Mr Tancred’s letter. In a transparent democracy voters (we ratepayers / your employers) ask questions of you to be sure that you are working in our best interest. When you the politician refuse to answer questions claiming that you don’t wish to “bore or confuse“ we ratepayers, one would have to wonder about your arrogance or wonder what is being hidden. It appears to me that SDRC’s involvement in Emu Swamp is a necessity for GBIP’s business case but financially and long term a bad idea for ratepayers. If you were kind enough to honestly and openly answer ratepayer questions you might lead us to different conclusions. Yours respectfully. – John Morison, Stanthorpe
