On Friday afternoon, our journalists excitedly drove out to Killarney to attend the skating event at the Rec Club, which we quickly learned was no longer being held. Not the kind of girls to give up that easily on an adventure, we spent an hour or so exploring Killarney. We headed out to the border to revel in the fact that we can indeed cross it now, and then took a walk around Queen Mary Falls. Please enjoy these photos from our adventure, and fingers crossed we get to attend skating in the future.

Stop the blame game on the government It is very frustrating when one cannot purchase certain supplies from supermarkets, i.e toilet paper, tissues etc. However, if people stopped hoarding items and just bought what was needed there would be enough for everyone, same as the RAT kits. You only need one and only if you have symptoms or have been in close contact with an infected person. As for booster shots, I have just had mine, only two days to wait for an appointment at

the Condamine Medical Centre. As is said, we are all in this together, so let’s work through it and stop laying the blame on the government. They are human and are doing the best they can in difficult times. I do not agree with border closures as in WA and lockdowns, as in Victoria, but at least Qld is now open and families can get together again. Each state, not the Prime Minister, has the power to make its own decisions, so look to the Premiers of that state for answers. Name withheld, Warwick

I have a couple things to be potentially annoyed about this week. Where to begin? I’ll start with a funny story. When I was at university, I was part of the student union through my role as editor-inchief of the university publication. Now, this student union was pretty damn good at making money. What did we do? We sold cheap beer and were the biggest graduation gown company on the East Coast. Was this system perfect? No. It left a little to be desired in the actual student advocacy department. But my point is, we made bank. I get immensely frustrated with the current council and their “we don’t want to give locals any money” approach. Yes, rates and roads and rubbish are important to a community. But so is our culture? We have some amazing things out here that make our community stand apart from the rest. Saying that people are padding out their funding applications with “bells and whistles” is just rude. Maybe you take advantage of grant applications, but other groups are just trying to offer something good to the community. I’ve made no mystery of my distaste for some of Council’s financial decisions. It seems to me like they could be doing more to ensure the financial security of the region. Yes, you need to ensure you meet the basic needs of the region first. Some of our roads are truly appalling. But you could also try investing in something that will make us money in the future and in turn give us money to then give over to community halls and local events. Because without them, our community would be a very sad place. That sad place is called Brisbane and you wouldn’t like it. But hey, maybe it’s just that classic problem in politics. No one is interested in building a future, they’re interested in getting reelected. I’d also like to say that it was remiss of me not to say anything about Australia Day last week. The thing is; I forgot about it. And doesn’t that say it all? The date, the actual date of January 26, just really isn’t significant to me as anything other than a day of tragedy for our Aboriginal people. Do I think we should have a national day of celebration? Sure. Should it be on the anniversary of a massacre? Yeah, nah. January 26 was only declared a public holiday in 1994, I’m pretty sure we can find a better day and leave January 26 as a day of mourning. Also Grace Tame didn’t need to smile. Stop telling women to smile. That is all.

Southern Downs Regional Council (SDRC) declined a request at the 27 January meeting to waiver or reduce the application fee for February’s Moonshine Run. On 19 January, council received the request on behalf of the applicant. The report stated that the request should be approved as the temporary event is a great asset to the town, it brings tourism and money to the region, and the application fee is significantly higher than previous years. In council’s Schedule of General Fees and Charges 2021-2022, the application fee for an event of this classification is $201. As the correct application fee classification has been applied to the 2022 Moonshine Run event, it resulted in a fee increase. Cr Marco Gliori said he was in favour of approving the applicant’s request to support the event amidst so many Covid-19 related cancellations. “It might be something for council to consider, a 50 per cent reduction in support of the event going ahead,” Cr Gliori said. However, Cr Stephen Tancred said he was against allowing a fee reduction. “I encourage the organisers to keep doing a fantastic job, but we have some responsibility with safety standards, hygiene, etc., which is important for the organisers and visitors,” Cr Tancred said. “We have to do the checks and see all their plans – if we don’t, it’s all okay until something goes wrong. “I think we have to do our job properly and I just can’t see a reason why we should do it at a cut price.” The motion was moved by Cr Ross Bartley and seconded by Cr Stephen Tancred.

Following the drought which depleted stocks of fishing in the Severn River and tributaries, the Stanthorpe Blue Water Fishing & Re-stocking Club made an approach to Southern Downs Regional Council for financial assistance to purchase fingerlings to release into the Severn catchment. After the fishing club contributed $2000 and Southern Downs Regional Council matched this amount with $3000, they were able to purchase 1300 Murray Cod, 15,000 Golden Perch, and 3370 Silver Perch, and the fingerlings were able to be released as far down as Ballandean and up as far as Cannon Creek. The State Government only fund the restocking of impoundments for which a licence is required to fish whereas fishing in streams is free and can be enjoyed by all. The contribution freshwater fishing makes to the community is underestimated. Apart from tourism, the social family value of dad going fishing with the kids creates memories that last a lifetime and becomes a generational event within families. The Fishing Club thanks Southern Downs Regional Council for the support they have shown, in particular, Mayor Vic Pennisi for his

1825 doses of vaccine were administered at the Darling Downs Health (DDH) vaccine clinic held in Warwick Town Hall from 27 January to 30 January, 1687 adult doses were administered, with 45 of those being first doses, 56 being second doses, and 1586 being booster doses. 138 paediatric first doses were administered. Southern Downs Regional Council Mayor, Vic Pennisi, got his booster shot at the clinic and commented on the excellent work of his nurse, Lizzy Hawkins. DDH Acting Executive Lead, Health Emergency Operation Centre, Michelle Forrest said that getting vaccinated, or your booster shot if you are due, is the best way to protect yourself, your family, friends, and the community from Covid-19. “It’s a good time for children to be vaccinated before school returns. “Being fully vaccinated is a good way to slow the spread of the virus in Queensland.” A clinic has run in Stanthorpe this week and will finish up on Friday 4 February. The clinic on Thursday will run from 8am to 4:30 pm, while the clinic on Friday will run from 8am to 12pm. The Pfizer-only clinics will provide first, second, and booster doses as well as vaccinations for children aged 5-11 years old. The clinics will be accepting walk-ins only, and DDH has requested that locals please be patient and kind to the staff. The time between second doses and boosters is currently three months. Queensland’s Health Minister Yvette D’Ath said on Tuesday 1 February that she is “very concerned” about the number of aged care residents who have not received a Covid-19 booster shot after eight more aged care residents died from the disease. This brought the number of Covid deaths in aged care since the current Omicron wave began in December to 107. “Of the 107 deaths we’ve had in aged care residents since the start of the pandemic, only 10 of these people have been boosted, and I’m concerned that 20 were not vaccinated at all,” Ms D’Ath said. While there was a drop in hospitalisations last week, they have once more gone up. Chief Health Officer John Gerrard said he was not concerned about the increase. “I think it’s part of the cyclical phenomenon that occurs in hospitals,” he said. “We need to be looking at the seven-day period and it will be more telling what we see towards the end of the week in terms of whether we’re continuing to see the downward trend.” Dr Gerrard said South-East Queensland has most likely passed the peak of the Omicron

wave, but the state would find out later this week if the number of cases and deaths were trending downward. “I think we will see as the week progresses definitely whether these (numbers are) continuing to fall,” he said. The Chief Health Officer said cases were growing in regional areas of Queensland, with Townsville and Toowoomba reporting higher case numbers than usual. “Over the next week, that’s when we still expect the numbers overall to decline in aggregate across Queensland,” he said. Dr Gerrard said he was not expecting an increase in children being hospitalised when face-to-face learning resumes next week. “The bigger risk to the healthcare system from the schools opening is the parents and the grandparents that are being infected from a child,” he said. “So it is critically important that the parents get in, get vaccinated and the grandparents get that booster.”

Covid-Safe measures New measures will be implemented across Queensland to help students, teachers, and staff return to schools on 7 February. Masks will be required for all staff and high school students – and highly encouraged for most primary school students – when classes resume. Rapid Antigen Tests (RATs) will also be available to students and staff who develop symptoms while at school, while those who develop symptoms at home will have priority access to RATs at Queensland Health clinics. Premier Annastacia Palaszczuk said the resumption of school will be safer thanks to the delayed start of term, which has also allowed time for more students to get vaccinated. “We have acted on the health advice and had a cautious and measured approach through the pandemic,” Ms Palaszczuk said. “That advice has kept Queenslanders safe.” Key features of the Back to School plan include: Mask wearing for all high school students and staff in line with the existing mandate Masks available and strongly encouraged for students in Years 3 to 6 A range of ventilation measures including air purifiers as required Temporary measures for the first four weeks of term include: RATs available in school for students and staff who develop symptoms while on site

Grant projects on track By Dominique Tassell Southern Downs Regional Council noted a report on the current grant status, giving insight into the state of grant projects in the region such as the blackspot project. Three projects are at Amber level, meaning they are still in construction but nearing deadline. These projects are the Burning for Biodiversity project, Managing Pests During Drought Program, and Pest Animal Control project. A significant number of projects are labelled as grey, meaning they have been completed, withdrawn, or are on hold awaiting approval from the funding body to extend the completion date. Approximately 89 projects are listed as grey, while approximately 104 are listed as green, meaning they are progressing within the required timeframe, meeting required milestones, and expenditure is within the budget allocated. This brief on the current status of council’s expected grant revenue reflects both capital and operating grants where funding applications have been successful

from the following bodies. A staff member noted in the meeting that the item in the agenda was a shortened version of the document, and the longer one would be circulated. Councillor Stephen Tancred noted that only one project was labelled as “over budget or over time”. He asked whether the project, a black spot project at Churchill Drive and Park Road, was over budget or over time. He noted the wet weather as a possible impact. A staff member stated that the weather would have “certainly” impacted the project, and that he was not sure about budget. Councillor Tancred noted that “all the (other projects) seem to be in budget, so well done. Councillor Jo McNally noted that the project mentioned by Tancred on Churchill Drive and Park Road has progressed, as she has passed by it recently. “It looks like it’s probably back on track now.” The motion was moved by Councillor McNally and seconded by Councillor Tancred.

Council divided on grants By Dominique Tassell

Mayor Vic Pennisi then put it to the room for a consensus to change this. Councillor Stephen Tancred stated that the $2000 figure was the result of a workshop, and he was happy to stick with that outcome. Councillor Jo McNally stated she supported going to $5000. “The budget has already been allocated for this, so still $96,000 to be spent,” she said. She stated that less should have been allocated in the budget if SDRC wanted to change this, and she believed it should stay at this amount until the next budget when it could be adjusted accordingly. Councillor Gliori then moved a motion to remain at $5000, which was seconded by Councillor McNally. Councillor Gliori stated $5000 is a “fair and reasonable” amount that is “in the middle of the playground of what we were working with before”. “It will not stop applicants from asking for anywhere between $500 and $5000 depending on their project needs. I believe $2000 as the cap will limit some projects. “I’ve heard in these chambers comments

tions to pad them out, and said affluent clubs often take money from SDRC when they don’t need it. He said there is a sentiment from clubs that there is no point taking money out of their reserves when they can get it from SDRC. “It’s not what it’s for, it’s actually to help a group up that is struggling,” he said. He cited community halls being unable to afford insurance as an example of who the funding is for. “It’s for people that are in trouble.” Councillor Gliori stated he has “full confidence in the community” that they don’t pad out their applications, but stated the solution to that would be to call those groups out. He stated that SDRC are being gatekeepers to the public purse. Councillor McNally said she was a “bit concerned” by some of the discussion around core business. She raised the drag strip, which was also discussed at the meeting, where SDRC may need to use public money even though it’s not necessarily a “core” focus. The motion was then voted on, with only Councillors Gliori and McNally in support of it. The program will now see grants capped at $2000. Councillor Tancred then moved a motion to amend the guidelines to reinstate the requirement for a letter of support. The motion was seconded by Councillor Gale, and was carried. Councillor Tancred then moved a second motion that recommendations from the Manager Community and Cultural Services be referred to council for approval. The motion was seconded by Councillor Gale, but was lost. A final motion to approve the amended Grants to Community Policy and Guidelines was then successfully moved by Councillor McNally and seconded by Councillor McDonald.

12533713-JC05-22

A motion at last week’s Southern Downs Regional Council (SDRC) meeting regarding the Grants to Community Policy was met with intense debate, with one councillor stating that SDRC “neglecting their obligation to support in some small financial way their community’s vision”. The purpose of the Grants to Community is for council to support local not-for-profit organisations and to undertake projects or activities that will benefit the Southern Downs residents and community. The motion put to SDRC would amend the policy to have the assessment undertaken by staff, see grants capped at $2000, and have the program offered year-round. Other changes would also address how applicants can access both the Community Grants and RADF programs. While organisations can apply for both a Community Grant and RADF grant, they must request funding for different projects. There is $96,553.71 remaining in the Grants to Community budget for the 2021/2022 financial year. Councillor Marco Gliori spoke up to state he did not agree with the funding amount being lowered, citing that in previous years there have been two streams of funding; grants of up to $10,000 as well as grants of up to $2000. “We as a council in this term, I think have gone right in the middle with the $5000, we’ve had successful funding allocations based on that $5000 cap.” He questioned whether the feedback that led to this decision was from the community or staff. A staff member confirmed it was a councildriven decision. Councillor Gliori asked if there was an appetite to leave it at $5000, stating he would not be supporting the change.

that suggest there is an appetite for weaning communities off any community grants offered by this council. For them to go and find it somewhere else. “I believe this council have been neglecting their obligation to support in some small financial way their community’s vision with these modest amounts. Councillor McNally stated that Covid-19 has decimated volunteer groups over the last two years, and to reduce that grant money from $5000 to $2000 is “short-sightedness”. Councillor Andrew Gale then spoke against the motion to have the funding remain at $5000. He said there were processes to review the budget, and that amount can be reduced in the next review. “Or we can leave it the same, and it gives more opportunity to more groups,” he said. He stated it “should be a hand up, not handouts”. He said groups might have to scale back, “but that’s what happens when you have a budget”. Councillor Tancred said he would vote against the motion as well. He stated that SDRC has “done a lot for the vulnerable in our community during Covid-19” and cited their decisions not to increase rates, and to freeze fees and changes for vulnerable businesses. “We have been generous.” Councillor Cynthia McDonald stated that SDRC should be focusing on its core business of roads, rates, and rubbish, and she would like to see the program maintained at $2000. Councillor Ross Bartley stated “we can do it now, or at budget time” as grants amount will get reduced at budget time if it is not reduced now. He agreed with Councillor Tancred about clubs often adding things into their applica-

Bridge marks a century Carnarvon Bridge in Stanthorpe turned 100 on 1 February. The bridge was named after Mr Henry Howard Molyneux Herbert 4th Earl of Carnarvon. He was the Secretary of State to Colonies and related to the first Queensland Premier. The bridge was opened during Stanthorpe’s 50th Jubilee celebrations, celebrated by a citizen’s ball on the bridge complete with fireworks in the evening. A marble plaque was placed on the northern end of the bridge, which now resides in the Stanthorpwe Historical Museum. A wooden bridge crossing Quart Pot Creek was first built in 1878, and the concrete structure replaced this. The first footbridge was built in the 1930s when the road leading to it was also sealed as far as Connor Street.

Cr. Stephen Tancred and Stanthorpe & Granite Belt Chamber of Commerce President Graham Parker celebrate 100 years of Carnarvon Bridge.

To celebrate the Jubilee year the new Carnarvon Bridge was opened.

The concrete bridge was opened during Stanthorpe’s 50th Jubilee in 1922 and named after the Secretary of State, 4th Earl of Carnavon. This new bridge replaced an old wooden structure that was opened on the 22 February 1878 and demolished in 1922. Clintin’s Folly, a causeway, is to the left of the bridge and was constructed in 1875. The town of Stanthorpe is in the background.

Curves has saved my life By Leanne Manwaring

IT’S NO LONGER ABOUT “SKINNY” NOW IT’S ABOUT “HEALTHY”

Curves Warwick.

I believe that curves saved my life. Eight years ago when my sister-in-law asked me to go to curves with her, I laughed at her and thought to myself no one is going to talk me into this. So I transferred my money to an account I could not access via my debit card and went for the fitness assessment. That day changed my life. I had the fitness assessment and the lady doing the appointment was so good at explaining what curves could offer me that I went back downstairs, transferred my money back, and bought my membership. I bought the nutrition membership even though I did not think there was anything wrong with what I ate. At the time I was overweight, depressed, and not doing very well at life although most people who knew me did not know that. I had lost a son some years earlier and was struggling in my marriage and working nonstop. After joining curves and starting to workout regularly I lost a little weight but then hit a plateau, so I decided to follow the meal plan that I was paying for. With much hard work and determination I lost the excess weight but most of all I started to cope with life. My mental health improved so much that I started to function on a level that I had not been at for many years. I got back much of the confidence that had been lost. When I joined curves if anyone had said that I would be coaching ladies a few years later, I would have laughed and said I could never get up and do that.

Leanne Manwaring. But I was given that opportunity some years later, and because I passionately believe that curves saved my life and gave me the spark to live again I wanted to pass that belief onto other women, so they too could find the strong woman inside them that may have gotten a bit lost. Today I co-own the franchise with my friend Sharon because I do believe that Curves can help women be a better version of themselves physically but especially mentally. I am forever thankful to my sister-in-law for introducing me to curves all those years ago.

Focus On Hear

New local hearing clinic A new locally owned and operated hearing clinic opened in Warwick on Monday. The clinic is located at 55 Guy Street and is equipped with soundproof testing booths to provide highly accurate hearing assessments. Local hearing aid specialists Sharon Jamieson and Michelle Arnold connected with Hear4Good’s Mark Paton to bring a clinic to the Southern Downs. Michelle and Sharon said they had become uncomfortable with the way hearing services were being delivered. “We felt that developing a truly local service without the pressure of a multinational company would benefit the local people,” they said. With Hear4Good, they said the organisation aims to bring back the idea that people are at the centre of all hearing solutions. As a result, the Warwick clinic is proudly locally owned and unlike some other hearing aid shops we are not owned by a hearing aid manufacturer. Therefore, at Hear4Good they have access to all brands of hearing aids to best suit patient’s individual needs. Sharon and Michelle said the clinic is accredited to provide fully funded services for Pensioners and Veterans. The clinic also has onsite disabled friendly parking. For the self-funded retirees, the Hear4Good concept guarantees competitive prices, plus a wide choice of devices and comprehensive rehabilitation programs. Sharon and Michelle said they are looking forward to being able to specifically tailor

hearing solutions for every individual. “We want good results with fair prices,” they said. The services offered also includes hearing aid repairs and battery supplies, ongoing re-

habilitation and support, paediatric assessments for children over five, custom made earplugs (for musicians, swimming, noise), and alternative listening devices (for TV, etc.). Because the services are completely trans-

ferrable, patients can continue receiving their required services after changing clinics. Transferring to the Hear4Good in Warwick is simple: phone 07 4661 3893 or drop into the clinic at 55 Guy Street, Warwick.

Local cemetery upgrade By Emily-Rose Toohey Southern Downs Regional Council (SDRC) entered into a contract at the Ordinary Council Meeting on 27 January for the construction of more outdoor burial vaults at Stanthorpe Cemetery. The contract is with K&A Building Pty Ltd for $504,872.73 as part of the Second Quarter Budget Review. Council’s report stated it originally allocated a budget of $525,000 for the project, which has involved construction of a car park and associated roadworks. The Stage 3 construction plans for the Stanthorpe Cemetery will add another 90 vaults plus roof covering, concrete apron, walkways, landscaping and finishing work. However, there is an anticipated overall budget shortfall of approximately $90,000. This is without taking into consideration any possible contract variations, contingencies, or project management and internal costs. The report stated that there may be risks of insufficient financial provision associated with budget and contingencies. SDRC Mayor Vic Pennisi said the vaults that are currently at the cemetery all sold for $10,000 each. “We have significant return in relation to those vaults,” Cr Pennisi said. “They sold in advance, they’re pre-sold, so they don’t sit there for too long. “If history is anything, you’ll see the same thing happen to these.” Council’s report stated that the project was an excellent opportunity to provide a cemetery service to a community that is in high demand. “It will be financially positive in the near future as sales continue,” the report said. During the meeting, it was brought up that

More burial vaults at Stanthorpe Cemetery will be constructed. the project will draw high demand. As a result, Cr Stephen Tancred said he anticipated that the resolution will get broad support. “If we pass this motion, it will allow this

project to progress and be finalised,” Cr Tancred said. “I hear the comments about the cost, it’s quite expensive, but the demand is certainly there and they’re very cost effective these vaults.

“It also extends the life of the rest of our cemetery because it’s a very efficient use of land.” The motion was moved by Cr Stephen Tancred and seconded by Cr Cynthia McDonald.

Pressure not up to scratch By Emily-Rose Toohey Southern Downs Regional Council (SDRC) allocated $520,000 in the Second Quarter Budget Review to improve water supply to the Stanthorpe Showgrounds and the Stanthorpe Northern Water Supply Zone. This budget allocation was decided at the SDRC Ordinary Council Meeting on 27 January, and will include design, internal management, and oversight costs. During fire flow testing for compliance purposes, the showgrounds found its existing water supply was unable to meet current fire flow and pressure requirements. Council has been liaising with the Stanthorpe Agricultural Society to find a solution. The report presented at council said two options have been considered, including an on-site solution involving tanks and booster pumps, or network improvements. For option one, Stanthorpe Agricultural Society had sourced a quotation to address fire safety compliance via the installation of tanks and pressure pumps. The estimated cost was in the vicinity of $340,000. For option two, engineering consulting firm

Morris Water identified that the existing water network did not deliver adequate standards of service in a number of areas within SDRC. This includes the Stanthorpe Showgrounds. A list of infrastructure upgrades was therefore developed and submitted for SDRC’s review. Cr Ross Bartley said water pressure regulations have changed since the original systems were put in place. “I think it’s going to be a significant problem for the region, not just any town in particular,” Cr Bartley said. “We’re going to have to start lobbying for some funding outside of this organisation – going to state and federal. “It needs to be up to firefighting standard otherwise we’ll be compromised as council.” Agreeing with Cr Bartley, SDRC Mayor Vic Pennisi said a lot of these issues have been forced upon council due to additional regulations. “Acknowledging the problem is the right thing to do,” Cr Pennisi said. “They’ll be plenty of this coming out in the not so distant future.” The motion was moved by Cr Andrew Gale and seconded by Cr Stephen Tancred.

Have your say on news At a time when many regional and remote newspaper services are shutting down or moving online, the government must understand the needs of regional communities, and how heavily they rely on their local newspapers to stay connected. Federal Maranoa MP David Littleproud is encouraging residents to have their say in the federal parliamentary inquiry into Australia’s regional newspapers. Newspaper readers in rural and regional Australia are five times more likely to go directly to their local newspaper website than Google or Facebook for local information. This was a key finding of a recent survey of almost 4200 Australian country newspaper readers. Mr Littleproud, whose electorate covers almost 43 per cent of Queensland, knows the pain of a changing media landscape in the bush. He’s urging fellow regional Queenslanders to put forward their views to the federal parliamentary inquiry into Australia’s regional newspapers. “We know that local news is vital to an interconnected community,” Mr Littleproud said. “We know that people are passionate

about printed local newspapers in rural and regional Australia, with over 70 per cent preferring to read a printed local paper rather than online.” “At a time when many regional and remote newspaper services are shutting down or moving online, the government must understand the needs of regional communities, and how heavily they rely on their local newspapers to stay connected,” he said. As part of the inquiry, the Representatives Standing Committee on Communications and the Arts, chaired by Dr Anne Webster MP, will examine the impact of decisions by large publishers to suspend publication of print editions; entry into these or other markets by new operators, particularly small businesses; impact of the News Media Bargaining Code for regional and remote newspapers; and the economic recovery in regional and remote markets from the impacts of Covid, and whether this has led to advertising revenue improving. Mr Littleproud said the online survey, seeking views on how Australians living in regional, rural or remote areas access news, is open until 11 February 2022 and takes less than 10 minutes to complete.

Council fronts up funds Southern Downs Regional Council (SDRC) approved almost $45,000 in funding for local events at last week’s ordinary council meeting. SDRC approved $14,565.95 in funding to the Allora Show Society Inc for the Darling Downs Heavy Horse Festival, and $30,000 to the Stanthorpe Festival Association Inc for the 2022 Stanthorpe Apple and Grape Harvest Festival. Both were allocated under the Tourism Recovery Funding budget. Each year council sponsors up to five large events through the Major Events Funding Grants. These events include Jumpers and Jazz in July $20,000, Leyburn Sprints $6000, Warwick Rodeo and Campdraft $10,000, Snowflakes in Stanthorpe $20,000 (bi-annually) and the Stanthorpe Apple and Grape Harvest Festival $30,000 on year, $10,000 off-year (bi-annually). Some of these events also receive other funding through Regional Arts Development Funding (RADF). The 2021/2022 budget adopted by council on 23 June 2021 did not include Major Events Funding for the 2022 Stanthorpe Apple and Grape Harvest Festival (Stanthorpe Festival Association). The Stanthorpe Apple and Grape Harvest Festival is the largest event in the region and is facing additional organisational challenges this year due to Covid-19. The Stanthorpe Festival Association has received financial assistance from Council since 2009. It is apparent that since 2018 the event has received funding from both the MEFG and RADF within the same year. A portion of previously allocated funds in the Tourism Recovery Funding – Local Events Funding Program (LEFP) were not spent due to events being cancelled or scaled back, and this is where the newly allocated funding comes from. Mi-bike Motorcycle Insurance Australian Superbike Championship (ASBK) was cancelled, so their $30,000 will be returned. QLD Motorists Re-Enactment Weekend 2021 scaled down their event, so will return $6868. Grazing the Granite Belt Spring Edition also scaled down their event, so will return $6275. This is a total of $43,143 in funding to be returned, and thus available to be reallocated. The SDRC agenda noted that the application lodged by the Stanthorpe Festival Association specifically related to the Apple and Grape Ball (700 anticipated attendees) rather than the entire festival (60,000+ attendees) and this may be why they were not awarded funding in an earlier round. The Apple and Grape Ball was the secondhighest scoring application after the Darling Downs Heavy Horse Festival. The agenda also notes that in the previous round, some approved applications did not receive the amount of funding requested. They used Jumper and Jazz in July as an example, with the event requesting $29,770.90 but only provided with $20,000. The total funding for the Apple and Grape

Ball and Darling Downs Heavy Horse Festival is $44,551.45, which exceeds the returned funds. The agenda stated that the shortfall of available LEFP funding ($1408.45) would need to be funded from council’s operating budget. Councillor Marco Gliori moved the motion, with Councillor Cynthia McDonald seconding. Councillor Gliori stated that, as he did sit on the panel with Peter Homan from Southern Queensland Country Tourism, “I think it is important to acknowledge the Australian and Queensland Government for the Queensland Bushfires Community Recovery Package under Category C of the disaster recovery funding arrangements”. He highlighted how our regional events have benefitted from this funding, receiving $150,000 in the first round and $230,000 in the second round. “That’s an amazing amount of money and we thank them for that.” He further stated that in that second round, there was an “amazing response” with over $800,000 in funding applied for in 45 applications. He said that the event funding assessment panel for the LEFP included representatives from SDRC, Queensland Country Tourism, and SDRC officers. “Both of the recipients of this leftover funding we’ve awarded today scored well in the panel’s round two assessment, and they only narrowly missed out. “They are of course both worthy events and together will provide almost three weeks following one another of much-anticipated entertainment in our celebration-starved communities. “So we’ve given a slice of good fortune, some sensible and responsible planning, let us stomp those grapes, wander through the orchards and vineyards, celebrate the season, saddle up the horses, respect our heritage, and welcome both local and visitors alike to come and meet the characters and landscapes that make up our Southern Downs and let’s hope these events go ahead and they’re all given the support they need.” Councillor McDonald stated that redirecting the funding is a “win-win” for the community. We’ve had a number of events that have been cancelled throughout the last couple of years of Covid-19 and it has certainly taken a toll on our community. She highlighted the Australia Day Cricket Carnival that she recently attended, stating that “events such as that you get to see real community spirit and it was fantastic to see how many teams were out there playing and enjoying themselves”. “As a community, we need to move forward. Covid hopefully will hit its peak fairly soon, and these events will start, significant events in particular, such as this one that we’re talking about and also the Apple and Grape Festival. “My hope is that they will go ahead and people will be able to enjoy themselves and get back to a sense of normality within our community.”

Visitor numbers improve By Dominique Tassell Southern Downs Regional Council received a report detailing visitor numbers to the region at last week’s ordinary council meeting. The report detailed numbers to the visitor information centres in both Stanthorpe and Warwick. The report stated that the winter period for Stanthorpe and the Granite Belt was busy and most accommodation places were at 90 per cent occupancy. August saw the Brisbane lockdown and the numbers coming to the region fell by half. The Granite Belt was busy during September, especially with the school holidays and operators reported good numbers. Some wineries are again sold out of wine and are closed until April/May 2022. The vintage for 2022 is looking very good with vines heavy in fruit. Stanthorpe has been the host to some new events with the inaugural Berry Festival and

Kick On Stanthorpe entertaining more than 1000 people at each event. The report stated that the Stanthorpe Christmas Market Day “saw many CBD shops and the Victoria Street market stallholders having very good sales figures for the morning”. The Stanthorpe Visitor Information Centre reportedly had a lot of enquiries around what is open for Christmas lunch and opening days and times for local businesses during the festive season.

The Stanthorpe Visitor Information Centre saw a total of 24,759 visitors in 2021, compared to 19,513 in 2020 and 18,463 in 2019. Between 2014 and 2018, the Stanthorpe Visitor Information Centre saw an average of 23,958 visitors per year. The report stated that coming out of the peak tourism season, the Warwick Visitor Information Centre has had reduced visitation in the August to December period. Covid-19 lockdowns and restrictions occur-

ring in South East Queensland and New South Wales have impacted visitation numbers. The majority of visitation has been from South East Queensland. Events have assisted with visitation to the region with Historic Leyburn Sprints, Warwick Rodeo and Campdraft as well as Morgan Park events being held during this period. The Sunflower season re-commencing has also brought visitors from across south-east Queensland. A variance of accommodation occupancy during this period of between 50 per cent and 100 per cent, mostly due to events occurring. The Warwick Visitor Information Centre saw a total of 13,149 visitors in 2021, compared to 9061 in 2020 and 15,904 in 2019. Between 2014 and 2018, the Warwick Visitor Information Centre saw an average of 15,823 visitors per year. The motion was moved by Councillor Andrew Gale and seconded by Councillor Cynthia McDonald.

Bright future on the cards for our region By Emily-Rose Toohey The last Darling Downs and South West Queensland Council of Mayors meeting of 2021 was held on Sunday 24 October. Southern Downs Regional Council (SDRC) Mayor Vic Pennisi and the SDRC CEO Dave Burges both attended the meeting. The meeting was acknowledged and discussed at the SDRC ordinary council meeting on 27 January. Cr Cynthia McDonald said in the meeting that the group was developing some excellent initiatives.

“It’s really starting to address the key concerns within our communities,” Cr McDonald said. “In particular, there are some that I think pertain to our region. “On-farm quarantine for seasonal workers, regional health service expansions, state reimbursements of the border councils over Covid-19 (the mayors are lobbying very heavily). “Regional waste management plan, State Government addressing areas such as the housing crisis – social houses – University of

Southern University looking at eight different drought hubs across Australia. “Transport infrastructure, water futures (ensuring water security), and food and fibre leadership.” Cr McDonald said she is pleased at the positive outcome for the community. Cr Stephen Tancred said he agrees with Cr McDonald’s statements. The next meeting Darling Downs and South West Queensland Council of Mayors meeting is scheduled for 25 March in Cunnamulla.

Group is endorsed By Dominique Tassell Southern Downs Regional Council (SDRC) endorsed the Public Art Reference Group members at the ordinary council meeting held last week. On 11 August 2021, council resolved to adopt the attached Public Art Policy and associated Public Art Procedure for implementation and invite persons who meet the requirements of the Public Art Reference Group to provide an expression of interest for council consideration and approval. During the same meeting, council also resolved to appoint Councillor Ross Bartley as representative and chairperson of the Public

Art Reference Group. During October 2021, council called for expressions of interest through the local newspapers and received only one nomination, with the nomination being received from Mary Rofe. Under the provisions of the Public Art Procedure PR-CS084 it states that the Public Art Reference Group (“PARG”) shall be established as a dedicated group to support the policy and procedure implementation and comprise of up to 10 people”. With the nominations listed, the group would comprise of six persons, being the Deputy Mayor (Councillor Bartley), two council officers, two art gallery directors/

managers and one community member. In the meeting, SDRC accepted the expression of interest from Mary Rofe, endorsed the manager of parks and operations and/or their delegate to be on the PARG, endorsed the workplace, health and safety coordinator and/or their delegate to be on the PARG, and endorsed the two local gallery directors, Mary Finlay and Karina Devine to the PARG. Also in the meeting, staff encouraged anyone else who is interested in being involved to express that interest. The motion was moved by Councillor Jo McNally and seconded by Councillor Marco Gliori.

Funding in Maranoa to help preserve wartime heritage Two Maranoa projects were among more than 80 successful recipients, under the latest round of the Australian Government’s Saluting Their Service program. Federal Member for Maranoa David Littleproud said that the 23 Squadron Association Royal Australian Air Force Queensland will receive $1021 to install a new plaque and honour roll at the Leyburn War Memorial and the Roma Returned Services League Sub-Branch will receive $3194 to reprint the Roma ‘Heroes’ Avenue’ brochure to provide information about local service personnel. “Australia owes an enormous debt of gratitude to all those Australians who have served our nation, defending our freedoms, values and way of life, and this funding is just one of the many ways we honour that debt,” Mr Littleproud said. “Large or small, all these projects represent Australia’s unwavering commitment to

always remember and reflect on all that our service personnel have done for our country.” The Saluting Their Service program ensures Australia’s wartime history is preserved and those who have served during wars, conflicts and peace operations are appropriately remembered. The funding is part of the Australian Government’s $32 million investment in Veterans’ Affairs grant programs this year. The next round of the Saluting Their Service program is open, and applications can be submitted until 8 February 2022.

Council was successful in receiving $39,500 of funding from the Queensland Government, which will be combined with a Council contribution of $50,000 to provide a total funding pool of $89,500 for this year’s program. Southern Downs Councillor and member of the RADF Reference Group Marco Gliori said the program continues to play an important part of place making across Southern Downs. “Year on year, the applications for projects become more innovative and it is a testament to how powerful the arts scene is in place making,” he said.

“The arts are key to stitching together the cultural fabric within a community and I look forward to reading the applications for this round.” Throughout previous years, Council’s RADF grants have included exciting and diverse projects such as street art, workshops to develop skills, heritage projects and participation of professional cultural artists and entertainers at festivals.

Have you visited one of our amazing libraries lately? Are you familiar with the long list of amazing resources and services offered by our local libraries? From ebooks to jigsaws to magazines and our home delivery service, there is something for everyone and everyone is welcome! But not COVID-19… While vaccinations are not mandatory to visit the libraries, library users are reminded to use the Check In Qld app on arrival, wear face masks, observe 1.5m physical distancing, practice good hygiene and follow the safety advice from staff. A Council spokesperson encouraged the community to be considerate and patient as staff work within COVID-19 boundaries while continuing to provide the popular library service. “We hope that everyone is compliant and considerate when visiting the libraries as our staff are here to help,” the spokesperson said. “We appreciate that some people still have safety concerns as we learn to adjust to COVID-19 in our community, so we remind those members to take advantage of the Library Home Delivery Service.” The Library Home Delivery service is a contactless service available to current members of Southern Downs Regional Libraries and is a great way to continue to receive library items. While Council continues to be guided by

Queensland Government recommendations, libraries are not considered restricted locations and proof of vaccination status is not required. “We would also like to remind the community to not visit the libraries if they have cold or flu like symptoms such as fever, cough, runny nose, sore throat or loss of smell or taste,” the spokesperson said. “With COVID-19 now an everyday part of life in the region, we can expect that library staff and users could be exposed to the virus at some stage. “This means Council may need to close some library locations, reduce opening hours or cancel events from time to time at short notice. “This may be due to public health directives, cleaning requirements or unavoidable staff shortages.” Updates on any closures or service changes will be posted on Council’s website, relevant Facebook pages and Library catalogue.

The Guide BETTER HOMES AND GARDENS Seven, Friday, 7pm

Turned upside-down: Gavin (Irish actor Eoin Macken) tries to make sense of the inexplicable in new series La Brea.

Host Johanna Griggs (pictured) and the trusty crew return with season 28 of this Aussie favourite this week. Adam makes an entrance, literally, with a front-door makeover to remember; while Joh and Charlie check out Rosedale Farm, near Orange in NSW. Karen takes inspiration from the Winter Olympics with hong shao rou, a Shanghai specialty; while Ed makes two Chinese dishes that the whole family will enjoy. Staying on theme, Graham is transported to China with a visit to Sydney’s Chang Lai Yuan Chinese garden. AINSLEY’S GOOD MOOD FOOD SBS Food, Saturday, 7.35pm

Larger-than-life British chef Ainsley Harriott (pictured) is onto a winner with this new series – and that’s not just because he breaks into song whenever he feels like it. Harriott has a zest for life that can’t be ignored. Based on his book of the same name, this foodie adventure sees him cooking on the beach (his favourite spot) as well as the kitchen (another place he obviously loves). The show is all about food that makes him feel good and the feeling is infectious. It’s hard to object with Harriott’s fervour. JOANNA LUMLEY AND THE HUMAN SWAN ABC TV, Tuesday, 9.30pm

PICK OF THE WEEK LA BREA Nine, Monday, 9.10pm

Who could forget the cult series Lost? As possibly one of the best TV series ever made, it’s only natural there will be other shows that copy its mysterious, sci-fi flavour. Melbourne-made series La Brea, premiering tonight, leans heavily into the sci-fi, while also indulging in a wallop of disaster drama. When an enormous sinkhole suddenly opens up in Los Angeles, hundreds of people fall into an unexplainable primeval world. Expect a raft of predictable dialogue as the Harris family are separated and must find a way to be reunited. Fortuitously, Gavin (Eoin Macken) discovers the apparitions that have haunted him for yonks might hold the key to bringing his family home.

The Absolutely Fabulous star charts Australian-born conservationist Sacha Dench’s (pictured, right, with Lumley) quest to raise awareness about climate change in this wholesome doco. Dench got her nickname after following a flock of swans on their three-month migration journey. Here, she uses the same method of transportation – a battery powered hang-glider called a paramotor – to journey along the British coast, while Lumley follows on land, and they meet folk making a difference.

RURAL LINKS WarwickStanthorpeToday.com.au

Rural Links Livestock agent ROSS ELLIS of McDougall and Sons brings us an update on the local lamb and cattle markets from last week.

Livestock market update Agents yarded 428 head to the local cattle sale. The market was firm for the number yarded in a week that has our Australia Day holiday playing havoc with the weekly sales. With the holiday falling on Wednesday this means no sheep and lamb sale, pig and calf sale or poultry sales this week. The exporters were still out of the cattle market but the feed-on and back to the paddock buyers were still keen to fill their orders. Vealer steers averaged 687.2c/kg topping at 778.2c/kg or $1752.31 to a top of $2217.87 Vealer heifers averaged 613.3c/kg topping at 858.2c/kg or $1565.19 to a top of $2016.63 Feeder steers averaged 571.4c/kg topping at 656.2c/kg or $2206.31 to a top of $2877.34 Feeder heifers averaged 541.4c/kg topping at 594.2c/kg or $$1907.05 to a top of $2287.67 Yearling steers averaged 596.9c/kg topping at 680c/kg or $2138.06 to a top of $2938.22 Yearling heifers averaged 541.6c/kg topping at 628.2c/kg or $1900.80 to a top of $2240 Steers averaged 516.2c/kg topping at 590c/ kg or $2483.19 to a top of $2782.83 Heifers averaged 433.4c/kg topping at 568.2c/kg or $1456.17 to a top of $2775.18 Manufacturing steers averaged 461.8c/kg topping at 492.2c/kg or $2164.74 to $2854.76 Cows averaged 345.9c/kg topping at 388.2c/ kg or $1968.12 to $2810.14 Bulls averaged 442.7c/kg topping at 665.2c/ kg or $1978.80 to $3636.76 Cows and calf units averaged $2715.63 to a top of $3200.00

This week on the farm By Judy Barnet, Ag Columnist

Roger and his Southdown and Babydoll Sheep. with No. 18 over to Killarney. It has been some years since I have visited Killarney, in fact, it was a picture on a calendar of the plateau country in Killarney that actually was responsible for my move to the region over 30 years ago. It was love at first sight with God’s own country at Killarney, although the job I found was in Warwick and the farm I found to rent was at Loch Lomond, so I didn’t quite make it to Killarney. Anyway, the sight I saw when I came over the hill that looks down onto Killarney took my breath away once again. It truly is God’s country! I chugged through town at about 30km per hour and up Pine Street, missing Roger and Paula’s house, too busy looking at the views as I continued up to the water tower. Once again, the views were to die for! Back down to Roger and Paula’s who have a one-acre block and are well on the way to being self-sufficient. One acre of beautiful Kikuyu pasture, approximately three quarters of which is planted with well-guarded fruit trees and plenty of big no-dig garden beds. What they have achieved in the short time they have been there is amazing. I enjoyed a cup of tea and accepted gifts of ginormous homegrown garlic bulbs and some heritage tomatoes. No. 18 immediately made herself at home! On the way home I visited my very dear friends Bill and Jan at Tannymorel and had a look around their farm. The grass was so lush and tall you could only see the heads of the cows, the hay shed was full and the spelling racehorses fat and shiny. It was great to catch up with them and also to see the progress on the mural that is really starting to take shape on the big shed at Tanny. Tanny is a beautiful little village and the mural will be a real asset to the area. One of the biggest projects on the farm has finally got underway. Nathan Sweet Excavations came out and did a pad for the shed we are putting up and also a pad for our storage containers this week. Anthony was a skilled and professional operator and a really nice guy to boot. I could not recommend an excavator company more highly. Fingers crossed we are hoping to get the concrete laid in the next two weeks. I know CJ will be thrilled as she is waiting for the shed to be built so she can relocate into Dick’s Hut, which is currently filled with – ummm, how can I word it politely - currently filled with bits and pieces that you may need on a farm one day! One project that is not coming together as planned is the AI (Artificial Insemination) of the cows. They are currently in a small paddock behind the house that is rapidly running out of grass. I didn’t worry over Christmas, but it is now the end of January and not one cow has been AId. This is entirely my problem as some days I forget to check them twice daily, so I have more than likely missed one cow. I was also away a couple of days and the one cow I did contact the AI man about, he was unable to come out and attend to on that day. I have just checked my calendar and noticed that Varina should be bulling in the next couple of days. Of course, I am going away Friday night and won’t

Magpie Duck Project.

Work finally starting on the shed - Anthony from Nathan Sweet Excavation. be back until Saturday afternoon. If I can’t get them done in the next month I shall have to come up with a plan B. The magpie duck - back from the brink Finally, I thought readers might be interested to learn about the Magpie duck project. The Rare Breeds Trust’s talented poultry coordinator, Cathy Newton, who also happens to be an esteemed poultry judge is leading the project. The Magpie is a black and white English duck that is a hardy and active forager. They lay fairly well and in times past were also used for table birds. Where was the Magpie duck in Australia? Up until the year 2000 the Rare Breeds Trust thought they were either never here or had become totally extinct. The official standard was in the Australian Poultry Standards – describing the distinctive cap and penguin-like colouration – but they were nowhere to be seen. A couple of years ago some images of ducks having some of the characteristics of the mag-

pie were seen on Facebook. Would it be possible to take those birds that may have magpie genetics in them and breed a flock selectively to get closer and closer to the real standard magpie duck? That was the proposed challenge and it was taken up by Cathy, who acquired some eggs from the flock in Tasmania that was producing offspring with some of the magpie qualities. A magpie duck group was set up with a number of breeders to work on the project over many generations, later including further stock to strengthen the offspring. There are now recovery flocks in Victoria, New South Wales and Queensland. The breeders share birds and draw in new people to work toward the conservation goal. The latest to join the group are Matt Brown and his children, from Rockhampton. They have managed to buy some females and have been provided with a chocolate and white drake to breed their first progeny. It’s exciting to be trying to bring back a lost domestic breed for Australia’s future.

After a few crazy windy days, I awoke on Sunday to a beautiful calm and crisp morning. Taking Dora for a walk down to the dam, she immediately flushed out a mother duck and seven half-grown ducklings. Scanning the dam I spotted a swan – it looked like it had a nest in the reeds. Silverfish were jumping out of the water and a solitary pelican was cruising. I never cease to be amazed at the beautiful sight I awake to each morning, mentally comparing it to what I saw and experienced during the drought and how I felt then. To be honest, I am not sure I could go through another drought. I was up, not so much bright, at least until after a second coffee, and early, at 4.15 on Monday morning. We had plans to worm the goats and also to vaccinate and castrate the calves. Fairly ambitious considering our dad and Dave set up for the goats, I thought, but then again I am generally a pretty optimistic kind of gal. Things actually started reasonably well, the calves were well behaved and the job was completed in less than half an hour. On Sunday, Richie had opened up the gate out of the goat paddock to encourage them to come out and be closer to the yards. This worked well but the goats were nowhere to be seen this morning. I left Richie at the yards to organise the gates and went for a drive. I soon located the goats down at the dam. With my bucket of feed, the milkers were eager to follow me so we set off on foot up the hill towards the yards. The ferals followed not too far behind and all was good until we reached the yards. The milkers were happy to go in but those naughty ferals (that’s not exactly what Richie called them) would not go through the gate. No way Jose! We decided we would have to resort to plan B and went up for breakfast as Richie needed to go to work. Plan B was to leave the yards open and put feed in every day then sneak down and shut the gate. Of course, the goats can jump every gate in the yards, so yarding them is only half of the job! Anyway, I have another plan to finish setting up the cattle yards and line them with rubber or something similar so the goats can’t see or jump out. I will have a gate strategically placed so the goats can come and go at will lured by a bit of feed every day. Once in there will be no escape. I hope. Last week I mentioned that I was taking my old pet sheep No. 18 over to live with Roger at Killarney. I thought I had better get her in today so I could leave early tomorrow. The only trouble was 1: the sheep were all in the steep timbered country, and 2: the quad bike was under repair which left me with Shanks Pony as the only option. At 6.30am I started my trek up through knee-high grass up the hill. It was hard work as the country is very rocky. About half way up I found sheep but not the one I was looking for, so after getting my breath back and thinking I should have brought a hat, I continued on. It probably is only about 400m to the top, but by golly it is steep. Once at the top I spotted a mob of sheep only about 500m away along the top fence-line near a gateway, so with my bucket of feed I set off to find No. 18. Sure enough, she was there and happy to come and get a feed. Now it was a choice of heading back down the hill or slipping her through the gate and continuing along the fence-line then out through our boundary gate onto Brockhampton Road and back into the home paddock on Walker Road. I knew this option was further, but I thought it might be easier than trying to get her down the hill through the trees and gullies, as the other sheep were likely to lead her and I on a merry sheep chase. An hour or so and about 3km later, we arrived home back at the yards, hot and thirsty! I was going to take Dora about for her morning walk – well when I say walk, Dora usually walks while I ride the quad – however, the quad is out of action at the moment requiring a bit of maintenance. After yesterday’s 4km walk I briefly considered taking the rider mower and killing two birds with one stone, walking Dora and mowing, however, due to the number of stones on the track I discarded this idea and resorted to walking down to the dam and up to the calves. I still clocked up about 1.2km on this walk.

Govt introduces Gap year on farms By Emily-Rose Toohey The Australian Government has partnered with the National Farmers’ Federation (NFF) to develop AgCAREERSTART, a 12-month gap year program. The program matches high school graduates based on their interests with an on-farm paid job in regional Australia. AgCAREERSTART Project Manager Kayla Evans said the program starts in March and can be between 10 and 12 months long. “There are many skills participants can develop, including picking, harvesting, operating heavy machinery, and general life skills,” Kayla said.

“It also offers pastoral care, assistance in completing formal training, access to a community engagement officer, participant safety, and a transition into the workplace.” AgCAREERSTART applicant Romy Ainslee graduated from high school in 2021 and is excited to begin the program. “I’ve been stuck in the same place my whole life and I’m keen to get out there and try something different,” Romy said. “I originally started an agriculture course in high school, but the program ended up not running as not enough people signed up. “I don’t mind where I get placed, as long as I

get the opportunity to learn.” Kayla said farmers can apply the same way as applicants to ensure a suitable match. “Through AgCAREERSTART, participants will be employed under award wages on qualified farms,” she said. “Participants will receive safety training, on-farm induction and VET scholarships to upskill on the job – applications close on 6 February.” Applications for both farmer hosts and participants are now open.

Practical tools for farmers to prepare for the future Two digital tools are delivering Australian farmers the best available climate data to help prepare for future drought and climate change. Minister for Agriculture and Northern Australia David Littleproud said the Drought Resilience Self-Assessment Tool (DR.SAT) and the updated Climate Services for Agriculture (CSA) platform are two key investments under the $5 billion Future Drought Fund. “These tools are about using technology to make climate information more accessible and useful for farmers, industry, and rural and regional communities,” Minister Littleproud said. “My department has worked with farmers here in Maranoa to ensure the prototypes provided information which was accessible and useful. “We will continue to work with farmers and agribusiness to develop tools that are practical and will make a real difference to rural and regional Australia.” The CSA platform provides farmers with historical climate data, seasonal forecasts, and future climate projections at a 5km2 resolution across the country. “Climate information for cattle, wheat, sheep, almonds, apples, barley, canola, and lupins is now available,” Minister Littleproud said. “An apple farmer in Stanthorpe can see if the risk of sun damage to their crop is expected to change in future - this means that 22 TODAY Thursday, 3 February, 2022

farmers can easily assess how the climate variables that matter to their business could change in future. The DR.SAT is a free tool to help farmers prepare for future drought. “Farmers can explore the current and past

condition of their property through satellite imagery and complete simple surveys to assess how they are tracking in terms of financial performance and personal wellbeing,” Minister Littleproud said. “The tool also helps farmers understand

how their land might be impacted by climate into the future, and then see a tailored set of practical options and resources to manage these impacts.” There are eight pilot regions, those being Queensland Dry Tropics – including Townsville, Charters Towers and Bowen, Condamine and the Northern Tablelands – including Toowoomba and Armidale, Victorian Mallee and south-east South Australia – including Mildura, and Horsham, Western Australian Wheatbelt – including Northam and Narrogin, Tropical North – including Cairns, Darwin, Katherine, and Kununurra, Central West New South Wales – including Dubbo, Parkes, and West Wyalong, Riverina and Goulburn-Murray – including Shepparton and Griffith, and Gippsland and Northern Tasmania – including Bairnsdale, Sale, and Launceston. The Australian Government is investing $32 million to continue the development of CSA to June 2023 and DR.SAT to June 2024. This funding will enable the capability of the platforms to be progressively expanded, and ultimately provide national coverage. The Future Drought Fund provides $100 million each year for programs that build drought preparedness and resilience.

ENTERTAINMENT

Oscars race By Emily-Rose Toohey

HBO’s addictive drama is available for streaming on Binge.

Euphoria: All the madness so far By Emily-Rose Toohey After an almost three year hiatus, HBO’s hit drama series Euphoria returned for a highly anticipated season two. The series stars multi-hyphenate Zendaya, who leads an ensemble cast about a group of high school students navigating the highs and lows of their teen years. It’s written, directed, and created by Sam Levinson, and on Monday afternoon, the fourth episode was released on Binge. This mean we’re already halfway through the season, and boy has a lot happened. With those unfamiliar with HBO’s dark, graphic, unrelenting, shocking, and often comedic drama, any recommendation should come with a warning. The show’s explicit nature is not for every-

one and at times the excessive sex and nudity feels gratuitous. However, at the show’s core is the harrowing tale of a teenage drug addict named Rue (played with finesse by Emmy award winning Zendaya). Her journey and messy relationship with Jules (played by a captivating Hunter Schafer) is what holds the narrative together. However, the insidious cycle of drug abuse and the devastating effects this has on Rue’s friends and family is difficult to watch. The story feels real and lived in, and it’s hard to root for a character who is so flawed and damaging. Aside from this core storyline, the show also excels at creating a dreamy, other-worldly aesthetic – almost a Euphoria trademark at this point.

The beautiful camerawork, incredible song choices, Labrinth’s addictive score, and the unmissable make-up and hair is all part of what makes the show so intoxicating. Although these over-the-top visuals have prompted criticisms for being unrealistic, Levinson has made it clear: “I’m not interested in realism; I’m interested in emotional realism.” Aside from the stunning visuals, Euphoria also serves as a showcase for a new generation of Hollywood talent. Every performer – Sydney Sweeney is a standout – commits to their role and delivers excellent performances. But that’s not all: it’s time to buckle up and get ready for the final four episodes of the drama airing weekly on Binge. It’s going to be a wild, chaotic ride.

If anyone has seen the sitcom Schitt’s Creek, then this quote will have some meaning to you: “What’s your favourite season?” a begrudging Alexis Rose asks her mother, Moira Rose. The answer? “Awards,” Moira says with no hesitation. Awards season is here and has been thriving for nearly two months, awarding the best and brightest in 2021/2022 film. With critic bodies awarding their favourite indie darlings and more prestigious, notorious voting bodies like the Screen Actors Guild Awards awarding old favourites, all is leading up to the 8 February: Oscar nomination day. If Covid permits, the in-person ceremony will go ahead on 27 March in Los Angeles. But what films are leading the race? 1. Belfast Kenneth Branagh’s latest directorial venture is a black and white, semiautobiographical film, and it’s a critical hit. The film chronicles the life of a working class family and their young son’s childhood during the late 1960s in the Northern Ireland capital. 2. King Richard The Will Smith-lead feature was a film festival hit and has been labelled one of the year’s most feel-good movies. It follows Smith as the father of tennis superstars Venus and Serena Williams – he might even win the Oscar. 3. Dune Denis Villeneuve’s sci-fi epic is based on the 1965 Frank Herbert novel, and has been sweeping every tech categories. This cinematic achievement may not win best picture, but it’s bound to score a plethora of nominations.

Awards season is in full swing.

Mini’s top mystery novel recommendations revealed I’m a hard girl to please when it comes to mystery novels, but these four books are my favourite. 1. All The Missing Girls by Megan Miranda This is the book I recommend to absolutely everyone. In fact, I recommend pretty much anything by Megan Miranda. This novel tells the stories of two missing girls, a decade apart. The twist is that it’s told in reverse. The start of the novel follows Nicolette Farrell as she returns to her rural hometown to look after her father, and deals with the fallout of her friend going missing a decade ago. Then it happens again. And from that point on, the story is told from 15 days later to the first day she went missing. Megan Miranda’s writing is fantastic because you truly never know what’s going to happen next. For readers who are determined to figure out the mystery before it’s revealed, this one just might be a challenge. 2. The Echo Killing by CJ Daugherty (or Christi Daugherty) This novel follows Harper McClain, a crime reporter in Savannah. Harper’s mother was brutally murdered when she was twelve, and the killer was never found. One night when she’s at work, she stumbles upon a crime scene that is eerily similar to that of her own mother; down to the young girl being led from the scene by a detective. Believing it’s the same killer, Harper thinks this is her chance to solve the mystery. Now I’ll admit, I read the second book in this series first

without realising it was a series. So I had this book’s twist a little spoiled for me. But even with that, the writing itself was so entrancing to me that I really didn’t mind. Maybe it’s the gritty journalist angle, who knows. But my only gripe about this series is that there aren’t more novels. 3. Lost Girls by Angela Marsons In this novel, two girls go missing and their parents are told only one can return. The couple that offers the highest amount will see their daughter again. D.I. Kim Stone and the squad investigate. Now, this is part of a larger series, and I’ll admit I grabbed it from the library with no care for where it fits in the timeline. But that being said, it’s 100 per cent the kind of series you can pick up from at any point even though you may want to start at the beginning. 4. Veronica Mars: The Thousand Dollar Tan Line by Jennifer Graham and Rob Thomas I’ve written about my love of Veronica Mars before, and the thing is they just know how to put together a mystery. And it’s the kind of well-crafted mystery that you want to consume again even though the thrill of discovery is gone. You just want to go back and watch it all come together again. This takes place after the movie, but even if like me you’re not the biggest fan of that this will still satisfy your mystery-loving needs. The book is set during spring break, and Veronica is tasked with tracking down a missing college student. Thursday, 3 February, 2022 TODAY 23


STANTHORPE TURNS 150 1876

People assembling for Sunday mass.

Stanthorpe back in 1876 Stanthorpe Church Extensions to the Stanthorpe Church in 1876 proved a burden to Trustees who were not free of this encumbrance until 1890. Extensions of the Church’s work took place immediately at Herding Yard (Amosfield), where George Seaman was appointed Society Steward, and at Sugarloaf, where a faithful Wesleyan who had opened the first State School, Arthur H. Outridge, filled the same office. Town and Townsmen Water for drinking and bathing purposes caused considerable concern as noted in the annals of Stanthorpe. Indeed, it was many years before reliable water supply was provided by the construction of Storm King Dam. A Government Town Water Reserve was set aside on the Quart Pot early in 1872, adjacent to Talc. St. and the Pikedale road. There were other reserves too in the Quart Pot Creek, Severn River and Funker’s Gap Creek, but they soon suffered the same inevitable fate of creeks in an alluvial mining area. They rapidly became thoroughly polluted with mud and clay. Water from the springs of Messrs. Fry, McCabe and Callarcan was supplied. Fry who lived at the corner of High and Harris Streets took water from a spring in his garden to tent dwellers for a cask. A little later in 1872, records state water was for sale at 9d. per cask and wood at 6 per load. This was signed by a number of vendors as the set price, and any carrier underselling was to pay a fine of two guineas to the hospital. It is noted that on 16th March 1872, poor Jas. O’Mara, Waterman – was fined 1 pound – for neglecting to renew his water carriers license. By January 1873 most drinking water came from a pool known as “The Rocks” in Funker’s Gap Creek, but the townspeople wrote to the press complaining of the practice of bathing

where the water was drawn for domestic purposes. Another wrote: “Is there no compulsory means of preventing people from bathing there? Surely if they have no regard for public health, they ought to have sufficient shame left to deter them from exposing their naked carcasses, before a number of females residing in the neighbourhood.” Angry protesters to the press were sufficiently desperate about the liberties taken by bathers, that a suggestion was made to introduce an alligator to the area. “Might this not deter people from taking their ablutions at this site?, the Border Post reported on 3 November, 1873. “Every evening grown men and boys are seen bathing at “the Rocks”, why can’t they find a place in the Quart Pot to ‘bogie’ and not spoil the only pure water we are likely to have?” The announcement in the Border Post (14 January, 1976) that a shower bath was opened must have been appreciated. It reads thus, “a shower bath has been established in town and will no doubt be well patronised, during the summer months, as it as it will prove a boon to those, where no other means of bathing exists.” A notice to the public of Stanthorpe and surrounding districts stated that, “I, William Kettley, have constructed first class shower baths near McCabes Blacksmith Shop and solicit patronage, open daily from 5am to 8pm and the cost to an adult will be 1, but families will be charged at moderate rates.” It is hoped Mr Kettley received fair patronage for his initiative in providing the showers, but the cost seems fairly expensive for the times and no doubt the townspeople continued to be annoyed by those who preferred to take free baths. First Prize Certificate presented by the Border Agricultural, Horticultural and Mining Society at their first Agricultural Exhibition, Stanthorpe, 1876.

Stanthorpe’s first Catholic Church, opened in December 1872 and was described then as one of the most prominent buildings in the new town. 24 TODAY Thursday, 3 February, 2022

The very impressive ANZAC obelisk at Tannymorel has stood for 100 years and carries an honour roll for all the youth of the region who made the supreme sacrifice in World War 1. It was specifically built to honour the World War 1 veterans, and the centenary today marks those men and women. However, it later became relevant to honour the districts heroes from World War 2, and the Korean War of 1952– 1954. So, on Sunday 6 February 2022, a special ceremony will take place to honour all those who died from the district. The World War 1 section of the monument contains three particular names of medal winners in Lieutenant W. Ryan who won the Military Cross, Private T. Gollan, a Meritorious Service Medal recipient, and Sister Margaret Goggin who came home after suffering shrapnel wounds, and what was known then as shell shock. It is interesting to look back at the period of 1922 when the Great War was only finished four years earlier, and the nation was just beginning to establish itself in a world that stood up and took notice of the contribution that our ANZACs made in their sacrifice. Some historians wrote that Australia really became a nation when the world media wrote of the exploits of these brave men and women. In 1922, the Warwick Daily News edition of 8 February had this to say about the memorial: “An impressive ceremony took place at Tannymorel yesterday, when His Excellency Sir Matthew Nathan, at the invitation of the committee responsible, unveiled the memorial which has been erected to the honour of the fallen soldiers who enlisted from the district. The monument which is in the form of an obelisk stands on a base of 4 feet square, and is 15 feet in height. It is made of brown Helidon stone with 4 marble panels, one on each face, and costing 100 pounds”. From that time on the monument has stood unblemished for 100 years and each name on the obelisk has a particular story, however, two stories that need a mention is that of Sister Margaret Goggin and Sapper Tom Gollin. With trench warfare being a huge part of the battles in France, the military authorities at the time felt that miners and mining engineers were necessary to counter the German lines and this required tunnelling experts. It was in this climate that Tom enlisted in the AIF in 1916 and was posted to the Pioneer Battalion of No 2 Australian Tunnelling Company in France, and became involved in the battle of Messines Ridge in July 1917, where he was awarded the Meritorious Service Medal for bravery when he volunteered to enter a gas affected tunnel to rescue a Corporal Starr, who was overcome with gas. With a mate, John Underwood, Tom brought him out safely but he himself suffered

from the German gasses that they had deliberately sent into the tunnels to counter the work of the Australian tunnellers. Tom was a witness to the destruction of Hill 60 as depicted in an Australian film. Tom was never the same man after the gassing and was sent home later. Just as Tom Gollin faced dangerous situations such as tunnel collapses, gas and artillery shelling, Sister Margaret Goggin faced similar dangers, Margaret was born in 1883, one of 11 children and always wanted to be a nurse. After a few years of nursing in country Queensland where she became Matron of Longreach Hospital, and keen to expand her experience in nursing, she went to Sydney. In 1910 she went west to take up a position at Cue-Day Dawn hospital in West Australia. In 1915 when the war broke out in Europe, Margaret enlisted in the Australian Army Nursing Service and embarked to London to serve in the Australian General Hospital there. She later served in Estaples in France, and Heliopolis in Egypt, before she faced her greatest danger at a Casualty Clearance Station on the front line in 1918. Here, she suffered shrapnel wounds from the incessant German shelling and was also diagnosed with shell shock. Once recovered, Margaret found her greatest satisfaction was working in the hospitals with the wounded and dying soldiers. She was greatly admired for her work among the diggers and when the Red Cross Journal published a letter from a wounded soldier that paid tribute to Margaret, it said: “She is a regular brick. She was one of my nurses for the first week and for the second week she was night sister. In the morning after taking temperatures, etc, she used to have a yarn about Warwick and Tannymorel and tell of her experience in West Australia. She always had an audience of seven or eight, all who were up, in fact, we all felt heartbroken when she was transferred”. These stories should evoke a feeling of pride and admiration for all those who served, and it is only fitting that a memorial that honours them should be preserved for the next 100 years. Progress over the years has been inclined to forget the sacrifices that these young people from the district made, and should need constant reminders to keep the memories alive such as the ANZAC stories; hence the monuments. The 100-year dedication of the Tannymorel memorial will begin at 10.30am on Sunday 6 February. It will be preceded by a serving and ex-servicemen and women’s march to the Memorial Shrine and, after the ceremony, morning tea will be provided followed by a guest speaker in Major-General Stephan Day DSC, AM. (retired) State President of the Returned Services League of Queensland.

Barty a champion for all What can I say – it has been some week for sport lovers. Seriously, anyone who did not shed a tear when Ash Barty received the Australian Open trophy from Evonne Goolagong Cawley in the presence of so many of our greatest athletes, you best book an appointment to see if your heart is still beating. Barty is everything we love in a winner. It may have come with heart palpitations, but she showed us with this win that she is a true champion of the sport of tennis. Prior to the final almost every commentator lauded her slice back hand as “the best.” I was surprised then to hear the great one (no, not the crazy half of the Special Ks), the real champion and gentleman of the game, Rod Laver, commenting pre-game that Barty has an amazing forehand, and it could win her the game. The great one spoke, and Barty delivered – her forehand, her weapon in the final. Never doubt a true champion. Barty, meanwhile, sprinkled magic dust on us all and made us love her even more as she acknowledged her mates and cracked a beer after her win. A real Cathy Freeman or Keiran Perkins moment in Australian sport. The Special Ks overcame the M & Ms to win the doubles title. Ho-hum. Well done, you have to say. The pair won a junior Wimbledon doubles title – showing so much promise back then. No one could have mapped their futures in their wildest dreams. One facing a future riddled with injury and the other – a wasted talent – words truly fail me. I wonder in years to come if Kyrgios will ever regret or realise what an ass he made of himself during their press conference. I think not. If anyone wants to see how you overcome adversity when the odds are stacked against you, watch the replay of Rafa’s win. You only need five-and-a-half hours to spare. The first two sets painful, the last three riveting, and if you lasted until midnight there was no going to bed. I am sure Rafa was the beneficiary of some of that magic fairy dust Ash left around centre court. What a champion – in every respect. While everyone waxed lyrically about the magic 21 slams, he was more pleased to win Aussie Open number two. We are privileged to have watched greatness on the court in the past few days, and I am sorry Nick, for me at least, you didn’t make the cut. -Casey

TRADITION CONTINUES The Warwick Golf Club Opening Day competition has a rich heritage and it was wonderful to see such a field of 80 teeing off in Sunday’s event celebrating the start of the 2022. Sam Eaves, Warwick Golf Club’s resident golf pro, kindly sponsored this important day and provided plenty of trophies for those that played well. None in the big field played better than Ian Stewart. “Stew” has been showing some good form now and then in short bursts, but on Sunday golfing stars really aligned as he and his playing partner, wife Janine, put together a score of 47 points to win the mixed competition. The Stewarts had 25 points on the front nine with 22 on the back nine. Ian himself had 10 points for the first three holes and five consecutive three-pointers on the back nine. It was his best display of golf in years. Shane and Molly Scotney took the runner up prize in the mixed section. The best score of the day (48 points) belonged to Toowoomba player Damon Goodwin and his partner, Killarney product, Clay-

The Warwick Redback enjoyed another win last weekend and are sitting at the top of the Warwick Cricket table. ton Frank who they won the overall winners trophy. Al Matthews and Greg Wallace won the runner in the men’s division. There were plenty of balls offered for pins and run downs in what was a great start to the 2022 season.

REDBACKS AFL SIGN ON Cricket may still be well and truly on the agenda, and although Redbacks cricket team is at the top of the Warwick table, thoughts are wandering towards to the AFL season. The Warwick Redbacks AFL club is holding a sign on this Friday (4 February) starting at 4pm at their headquarters at Warwick Credit Union Oval on Jackie Howe Drive. All age groups and levels of experience from five years old to senior men and ladies and invited to come along and sign up. There will be a free footy fun session for juniors from 4.30pm and the canteen and bar will be operating.

RED MARKER STABLEFORD Warwick Golfers have been spoiled over the past week with not one but two big days of golf. A field of close to 60 headed out in the red marker stableford sponsored by the Condamine Sporters Club last Saturday. Craig Burgess returned an excellent score of 40 points and claimed a win in the red marker day. Burgess has only been playing in Warwick for a couple of years and I understand this may have marked his win in competition play on the course. Well done. Craig obviously has a liking for the shorter course and doesn’t mind the shorter handicap either. Mark Simmonds (runner up) was not too far off the pace with 39 points and scored the runner up voucher. Pleasing to see Wayne Rhea who featured in the run down, playing more golf after joining from Allora. The Warwick Golf year is certainly off to a flying start. The John Dee monthly medal event is on next Saturday. (Surely not a month gone already in 2022). Some of the upcoming events in February to make a note of are the Two Ball Ambrose on Sunday 13 February and the honour board event; the secretary’s pen, (a stroke event

sponsored by Hynes Newsagency) scheduled for Saturday 19 February. Another date to make note of is 27 February - the qualifying round of the Lane Cup. A mixed 4BBB event with the top eight pairs qualifying for the match play component of the event. This is the only match play event for mixed pairs during the golfing year.

SDMDBA FOURS PLAYED IN CLIFTON Last weekend the Clifton Bowls Club hosted the 2022 Southern Downs Men’s District Bowls Association (SDMDBA) fours. Twelve teams nominated for the event. On Saturday, four teams played three sections of 18 ends. At the end of play on Saturday the three teams with the most wins and margins in each section and the next best teams progressed to Sunday’s playoff. The teams that played their way into the Sunday morning semi-finals were the Summit team of Rob Capelli, Brian Wilmot, Michael Sweeney and Tyler Sweeney (6+23) and the Inglewood team of Craig Smith, Dale Callaghan, Donald Coleman and Wes Smith (6+18). A second team from the Summit - Peter Ayerst, Frank Taylor, Darren Stanley and Tony Schubert - also made it through to the semifinals (4+18). Joining them was the final group from the Warwick East club - Peter Ridgewell, Paul Beaman, Danny Hughes and Rob Alcock of Warwick East (4+17). In the first semi, Inglewood scored a 22-19 win over the Summit team Peter Ayerst, Frank Taylor, Darren Stanley and Tony Schubert and progressed to the afternoon final. The second team from the Summit ( Rob Capelli, Brian Wilmot, Michael Sweeney and Tyler Sweeney) had more success and in a close game booked their place in the final with a 23-20 win over East Warwick. In a great final, the Inglewood team of Craig Smith, Dale Callaghan, Donald Coleman and Wes Smith for scored a 22 shots to 18 win over the Summit to claim the 2022 Southern Downs Men’s District Bowls Association Fours title. Congratulations to the runner’s up and all teams who competed. The District association wish to thank the Clifton Bowls Club for

hosting the event and for the hospitality of the kitchen and bar staff and all volunteers. The District would like to thank Clifton Bowls Club for hosting the SDMDBA Fours and to the cooks and the bar staff for looking after everyone.

ARMSTRONG GETS THE PRIZE Perfect golfing conditions drew out a large group for the Sunday morning round on the front nine of the Stanthorpe Golf Club. A few latecomers who made a last minute decision to play were able to tack on at the end of the field. We are used seeing Paul Armstrong collect the award for the Bet Gross score but on Sunday, he went one better collecting the best nett prize after returning 24. Just one shot back was Dick Hilton. Hilton has been in good form and although the bridesmaid again last week he is certainly not too far m and off collecting the main prize. A win in the coming weeks will be no surprise. Andrew is another player who had a good round returning nett 26 to claim the run down for the day. His brother Matt added his name to the prize list by after scoring the best gross, 38 for the round. There was only one pin shot on offer at the third hole. It looked like it would go unclaimed until the final group reached the hole and Terry Roser managed to just hold the green for the pin shot. My spies tell me a couple of Stanthorpe Sporters not happy with their recent form made a special trip to Warwick last week to get in some practise on the driving range. Unfortunately, they were disappointed that their results on Sunday did not quite mirror their practice efforts. There were plenty of moans and groans coming from the pair as their overworked muscles did plenty of complaining. They will be pleased to hear such an intense practice session may take week or two to translate to their game. In the meantime, I hope they had plenty of liniment handy. the Stanthorpe Sporters group will be out again Sunday morning. Tee off is between 7.30 and 8am. The group will be playing the back nine this week and extend an invitation to regular and non-players to join them for a round. Continued to page 30 Thursday, 3 February, 2022 TODAY 29

AUSTRALIA DAY FUN ON COURSE Golfers in Stanthorpe celebrated Australia Day in style. A good field teed off in the single stableford kindly sponsored by Andersens Stanthorpe, courtesy of Gary Kirby. There were plenty of carts decorated to reflect the Aussie Day theme and golfers dressed in their best Australia Day garb added to the fun and spirit of the day. On the course it was Nathan Stibbard’s time to shine returning the best score in the men’s section. His was the only score in the forties and 41 points won the day. Club President, Len Leigh once again showed his best man qualities, very supportive of the winner after 39 points. Neta Thouard returned to the winner’s circle in the ladies’ event. She was pleased take home the winner’s prize, the floor rug had been eyeing off and was hoping to win. The runner up was Lisa Stuart with a score of 31 points. In addition to prizes for the golf comepitition there were also prizes also on offer for best themed sections, attire and gear. Mei Bell and Steven Bell were very striking in their Australia Day matched clothing and took out the best dressed award. Stephen Kay spent many hours in decking out his buggy and was rewarded with the best decorated buggy award.

SOUTHERN CROSS BACK IN THE GROOVE After what has seemed a lengthy layoff, there was plenty of action on the green at the Southern Cross Bowls club last Saturday. 22 players rocked up for the first games of the year. Joining the big field was, Noel Fletcher (now a Toowoomba visitor) who was on hand to watch the proceedings while enjoying a few co spectate and enjoy a few cold ones. After such a lengthy break, surprisingly it did not take long for the rust to wear off for some players. On the other hand, there were some from whom the bad habits were quick to make a reappearance. The big field had an enjoyable afternoon and there was a mix of brilliant and done right lucky shots throughout the games. Barb and Greg Cross were back on deck after their spell and were soon back into the swing of things. John Johnson played some good shots but had everyone scurrying as he called out “duck” quite a few times. At the end of the day it was congratulations to the e winners for the day, Greg Cross, Daph Cross and Val Gray and the runners-up, Cita Weier and Wayne Foster. The ladies are holding their committee meeting today at 10.30am and will be followed by Social Mixed Bowls at 1pm. Val Gray is the organizer.

ORIENTEERS BOUND FOR QUEENS PARK Queens Park, Warwick has been chosen as the 30 TODAY Thursday, 3 February, 2022

venue for the local Bullecourt Boulder Bounders first Orienteering event in 2022. Organisers of the event next Sunday are expecting good support for the first in a series of sprint events. The Sprint events have been scheduled ahead of the bush orienteering season which gets underway with a state standard event at Dalveen on 20 March. Liz Bourne, the Bullecourt Bounders Publicity Officers says that Park Orienteering involves simpler navigation in an urban environment. Competitors work their way around buildings and across sporting fields and parklands. “A special colour orienteering map of Queens Park has been produced by the club for the event and a 3.5km and 2.1km course are being offered,” Ms Bourne said. “Competitors will find control points will be on features such as a building corner, track junction or fence and will marked by an orange and white flag.” An electronic timing system will be used for the event with competitors carrying an electronic chip attached to their finger. Units at each control site will record the time of their visit. This information is then downloaded to the finish computer to produce a total elapsed time plus the time for each stage between control points. In addition to local club members, Ms Bourne said the club also welcomes the participation of any local people who would like to give Orienteering a go. No special gear is necessary and compasses can be borrowed at the event. “We will also provide instruction to beginners on the basic map reading and navigational skills,” Ms Bourne said The event starts near the main entrance gate to Queens Park off Alice Street with starts between 3pm and 4.30pm. Entry cost is $5, and families are welcome to do the course together. The club’s next Sprint event will be held on Sunday 13 February at the Warwick Showgrounds. If you require further information, please contact 0467 405 897 or go to www.oq.asn.au/ event-calendar.

PERFECT SCORE FOR PARK Shooting in all classes last Sunday on Risdon Range was very competitive and there some excellent scores as a good crowd gathered at the 300 yard mound for the Southern Downs Rifle Club weekly shoot. In the Sporter/ Hunter class Graham Park could do no better than his perfect score. He certainly had a cracker of a morning. The good scores did not end there. Bruce McAllan also had an excellent result in the Open Class. His score of 120.9 nudged Murray Reck into second place by the “X” count system. Richard McKillop again led the way in the Standard class but hot on his heels were Nick Kent and Daryl Reck. Bob Tyllyer was all alone in the military rifle class.

With the countback closely scrutinized, Max Smith and Gary Kirby, who had the best score on the back nine, were revealed as winners of the David Townsend memorial Trophy and prize for the round. The Sherrin family sponsored the David Townsend Memorial Trophy round, and Jenny Sherrin was on-hand to present the winners with their prizes. Ron Batterham and Chris Binge were narrowly edged out of the main prize but received the spoils for the runner up relegating Travis Burton and Eric Ree to third place. Well played to all three teams. Smith and Burgess also cleaned up the Birdies Nest at 11.s The Men’s pin shots went the way of Santo Cavallaro (3), Keith Jones (12) and Barry Hughes (17).

BUSY WEEK ON COURT The Stanthorpe Mallet players had another busy week of comepitition. The week opened with games of Association croquet played on Tuesday (Jan 25). The combination of Joy Newman and Jenny Tunbridge proved too strong for Grace Howard and Pauline Smith. Newman recorded two peels and Tunbridge one during the contest. The pair pegged out on 26. which saw them peg out for a score of 26.rs Howard and Smith scored 13. A “Peel” occurs when a player scores two balls through the same hoop during one turn. It is a strategy requiring accurate positioning and striking of the balls. Heather Widderick and Carol Verwey played solo against each other in a very close game. Verwey pegged out first on 26 to win after scoring a run of two and two peels. Widderick was also playing well ending with a score of 21, having after scoring three peels and a run of two. A small representation from the Golf Croquet group were on court on Australia Day. Di Wren (3), Bev Sullivan (1) and Kim Foster (3) played strongly against opponents Jennifer Gleadhill (4), Pauline Inglis (1) and Shirley Evans (4). Wren was playing strongly throughout the game and although Foster scored a jump shot it was not enough to get a win over their opposition who scored a two point victory. Players were unable to complete the second game due to rain.

GATEBALL FRIDAY The Gateball group played their comepitition games on Friday morning. Les Williams, Sharyn Roser and Grace Howard won the toss choosing to play white balls against Jenny Tunbridge, Joy Newman, Pauline Smith and Heather Widderick (red balls). In the opening game, whites struggled to get their balls into play, but managed to slowly claw their way back into the game going on to take an 8-7 In the next game Whites began much better getting out to a good lead early on. Thanks to some accurate shooting they kept the red balls out of play taking control of hoops two and three. For Reds, Newman managed some accurate long shots and an Agari which narrowed the scores, but it was not enough. Whites securing another win, 13-10. After the break Williams, Roser and Howard added Smith to their team and played red balls. Tunbridge, Newman and Widderick playing White struggled to get balls into play. When they did Reds sent them off the court and held a healthy lead throughout. Smith scored some accurate shots contributing to Reds 14-8 win. In the final game both teams found it difficult to get their balls into play. It was a very close game until whites missed some crucial shots allowing Reds to take a 13-9 lead and claim the win.

PARTICIPATION TAKES A HIT There as little mention as possible of that nasty little word COVID in recent weeks but the Stanthorpe Bowls club is finding there has been a marked drop in participation on the Social Bowling scene as members choose to cautiously stay at home rather than run the gauntlet. Once again bowling clubs as other clubs are feeling the pinch. On Wednesday (26 Jan) there were two games of three bowl triples played. Greg Hammond, Rocky Thompson and Brian Brown were outplayed by Margret Harvey, Peter Smith and Len Girgenti. The final score 17-9. Great to see Margret back playing socially. In the remaining game, the final score was 17-10 however until the last end the game was very tight. Luisa Girgenti, Barry Murphy and Gary Trevena were finally able to get the better of Robyn Smith, Dot Rankin and Mark Wicks and secure a win. On Saturday afternoon, bowling was again restricted to games of three bowl triples Robyn Rose, Ray Rankin and Mark Wicks scored a come from behind win to take the chocolates in their game against R Rose, Robyn Smith and Dot Rankin. The score 19-14. On the other rink, Luisa Girgenti, Ernie Jones and Gary Trevena scored a 24-11 win over Greg Hammond Rocky Thompson and Len Girgenti. The winners running away with the game in the final few ends. The club acknowledges and thanks their featured sponsor this week, the Stanthorpe RSL Services Club. The Stanthorpe RSL are great supporters of the local community and organisations. The Stanthorpe Bowls club welcomes all new members from the experienced to beginners. If you have ever considered playing bowls, then go along on any Wednesday or Saturday and have it a go.

MARYVALE GRAB THE POINTS After the excitement of the Australia Day Cricket Carnival Warwick players returned to their regular teams last weekend for the round 11 fixtures. On Saturday Maryvale played Sovereign Animals at Slade oval. After winning the toss Maryvale elected to bat setting Sovereign a 182 run target. Pat Bourke and Will Gordon opened the batting. Gordon (12) was dismissed with the score at 1/17 but Bourke and Pat Gordon saw consolidated and when Bourke was caught by Fowler off a David Duroux delivery the pair had progressed the score to 103. Kieran Bourke added a handy 27 runs and remained not out at the end of the 40 overs. The score 7/182. Sovereign’s David Duroux bowled well finishing with three wickets and figures of 3/7 from an eight over spell that included three maidens.

The Warwick Opening Day is an important date on the Warwick Golf calendar. Pictured are the runner’s up in the Mixed 4BBB competition Molly and Shane Scotney. In reply Maryvale began well when Rohan Morris held a catch off the bowling of Mitch Darton to dismiss Sovereign opener, Mitch Hay for a duck with the score 1/0. Hay’s opening partner Riley Canning followed him back to the clubhouse shortly after. Sovereign were 2/10 and in need of a partnership to steady the ship. However, the Maryvale bowlers had the upper hand and there was a steady fall of wickets. Only Damien Canning (12), Seth Esson (12) and captain Luke Cullen (10) made it double figures as Sovereign crumbled to be all out for 62 in the 28th over. Kevin Bourke proved a headache for the batsmen taking 3/7 from an eight over spell which included a couple of maidens. Mitch Darton was again effective taking two wickets. Maryvale fielded well holding seven catches as they grabbed the points in this game.

REDBACKS WOBBLE BUT TOO GOOD On the turf at Queen’s Park Redbacks got the points in their game against Victoria Hill. after they won the toss and batted first. Vic Hill found themselves chasing a small total after Redbacks who had won the toss and batted were dismissed in the twenty-ninth over for 90. The standout in a disappointing innings for Redbacks was Sam Lowney who finished the game unbeaten on 58 after opening the batting with tom Allison who was out for a duck, the score one for one. Things went south from that point. While Lowney accumulated runs partners came and went. At the top of the order Ryan Clark and the dangerous Steve Grogan both gone for duck eggs and there were several more to come. Dave Drewery who was run out on 10 the only other to reach double figures on a fairly sad scorecard. Tom Morris three for nine, Singh three for 11 and Sandhu two for twenty-two, doing the damage with the ball. Vic Hill supporters would have been feeling confident ass the openers made their way to the wicket. In an innings that in many ways mirrored Redbacks they lost opener Joe Morris for three caught by Steve Grogan off an Allison delivery. His opening partner Nick Morris top scored with 31 before Grogan had him caught by Chandler. The only double figures score in a disappointing innings was ‘extras’ contributing 19. Vic Hill all out for 79. Steve Grogan had a blip on his batting radar but made up for it with the ball taking six for 17 as he ripped through the batting line up. Despite a bit of a wobble at the end of the round Redbacks sit at the top of the competition leader board by healthy margin. On Sunday Colts played Wheatvale at Slade in a game that turned out to be closer than some may have predicated. Colts were down on fire-power without John Cleary in the line-up and batted first after winning the toss. It was a game that followed a similar pattern to those the games on Saturday. The Colts openers were dismissed cheaply leaving Jack Ragh and Sean O’Leary to do most of the scoring and at the end of the innings were five for 160 setting Wheatvale a moderate run chase. O’Leary was lbw to Doherty for 46 while Ragh finished unbeaten on 63 with tail

ender James Fern adding 11. Chris Cantwell (2/18) headed the Wheatvale bowling figures. Hayden Doherty also took a pair. He also played his part I dismissal of opener Morgan Bourke holding a catch of the bowling of Damien Boal. Wheatvale got away to a better start with 34 runs on the board before opener Lachie Boal (10) was dismissed. His opening partner was on 26 when he was out and the score two for 68. Wheatvale looked to be in a solid position when middle order bat, Hayden Doherty (40) was run out. The score 4/127 and only 34 required to win. Unfortunately, the Colts bowlers slipped into the tail and a run out did nothing to help the score line. Wheatvale were dismissed for 148. At the end of round 11 the Warwick comepitition ladder has Redbacks on top with 39.5 followed by Victoria Hill (35.5); Colts 34.5; Maryvale 33.5, Allora 24, Sovereign 21 and Wheatvale 14.

JANUARY DONE AND DUSTED – 2021 WRAPPED UP As the first month of the new golfing year drew to a close it has been a very positive start for the Warwick ladies with good fields contesting all events. On Saturday the Ladies tidied up the 2021 calendar by finally completing the Medal of Medalists event postponed several times last year. A good field of twenty-six players including a large percentage of eligible qualifiers competed to add their name to the Betty Phelan Honour Board. Although Betty Phelan was from Allora, she was a long standing member of the Warwick Golf Club. During her association with the Warwick Club, she held several committee positions, including Captain. Her daughters donated the board to the club after the loss of their mother to breast cancer. On Saturday, Majella Kahler built on her good form of late, and sank some great putts on her way to a winning score of 74 nett. The course is playing very long for women at the moment and the score is far better than it sounds. The single Stroke event played in conjunction with the Medal event was sponsored by the Ladies Club Champion, Sam Hinze, and there were plenty of trophies on offer. In fact, too numerous to mention here but congratulations to the many winners. Narelle Norris, a new member won Sam’s event with a 75 nett and collected a meat tray for her effort. Another to collect a meat tray was runner up Carole Brandon (76 nett). Gross trophies were awarded in the two divisions to Marg Adcock (94 gross), and Anne Lyons (101 gross). Sam also donated a string of prizes for minor events February will have rolled around by the time the ladies play next. Look for the results of the Single Stableford played on the red course on Wednesday in next week’s Spin. This Saturday a good field is expected to turn out for the 2022 February Monthly Medal, despite the prediction of some very not conditions. The event sponsored in two divisions by the Condamine Sports Club Hawker Road Function Centre. The next Club honour board event will be played for at the end of February. Ladies are

encouraged to grab a male playing partner and organise opponents to play in the Lane Cup 4BBB Stroke qualifying event. This can be a one day event or there is the option to try and qualify for ongoing match play and compete for the honour board title. There is plenty of time allowed in which to play the matches and it is a knock-out format so it is a great a chance for match play experience. The ladies Vice-President, Wendy recently emailed members outlining a new initiative, “Support our Sponsors” lunch. Over a dozen bookings have already been received for the first lunch which will be held on Thurs 10 Feb at the Warwick RSL. Ladies are encouraged to check the info in the email and support an initiative which promises to be win-win adventure for all. Nominations forms have already been received by the club for the DSW District Matchplay Championships in Pittsworth on 28-29 March. Travelling members of the club, it’s time to check your diaries and if you wish to nominate Ros and Mel can provide a nomination form.

RSL AND VALLEYS SHARE TOP SPOT In the race to the finals of the 2021/22 Stanthorpe Cricket season RSL and Souths sit at the top of the comepitition table with 14 points. They are followed by Valleys on 10 and Wanderers with two points. Last Saturday Wanderers and Valleys played on Sheehan Oval. Wanderers supporters would have been buoyed by their performance with the bat. After winning the toss and batting they set Valleys a run chase of 154. Batting down the order, Brendan top scored with 44. His runs coming off just 46 deliveries. Earlier in the innings, opener Eddie Filmer was lbw to Damien Anderson for 30. Brock Patti (11) and Andrew Einam (19) the only others to break into double figures. Valley’s captain Damien Anderson led from the front with the ball taking four wickets. He was well supported by Wallis who dismissed Wanderers opener Mitch Drayton and first drop batsman Barry Bulow for ducks. Rutley also picked up a pair. Not everything went Valley’s way in their run chase. Tod Beckett wound back the clock, opening the batting and set a solid platform before he was dismissed for 34. The score 2/42. Valleys went from a comfortable 2/42 to 4/64 before Anderson joined Rutley at the crease and steadied the ship. The pair took the score to 143 and in sight of victory before Brendon Barker got his man bowling Damien Anderson (46). Crome and Wallis getting the handful of runs required for Valley’s victory. Meanwhile at CF White it was a top of the table clash between RSL and Souths. RSL had no qualms about sending Souths in on the CF White turf. The RSL bowlers grabbed two scalps in quick succession, dismissing openers Singh (8) and Mark Lanza (14) cheaply. Danny Folkers could add only 10 before he was back in the clubhouse (3/30) as Noah Mackenzie claimed his third wicket. The Lanza brother Jordan and Liam put together a nice partnership before Rohan Brady and Chris Haynes combined to dismiss Hayden for 37. The score was 4/87. Unfortunately for Souths supporters Liam was out in the next over. The score 5/89. Matt Burgess and David Burgess came together and took the score to 158 before first Matt (28) and David (22) were out. Souths final three batters were out without troubling scorers. South’s all out for 158. Noah Mackenzie the best with the ball. He finished with 4/17. His eight overs included two maidens. RSL opener Sam Dowie returned to his best form and along with opening partner Duane Lihou put RSL in a great position. When Lihou (32) was bowled by Andrew Burgess, RSL were 1/97 in the 21st over. Rohan Brady (27) joined Dowie (67) in the centre and the pair reeled in the required total in the 35th over. RSL losing only the one wicket on their way to a win. This week RSL play Valleys and Wanderers will be searching for a win over Souths when they meet on Sheehan Oval. Thursday, 3 February, 2022 TODAY 31
