Great Walk outcry By Phil Jarratt

12497020-DL22-21

More than 100 people braved the weekend wet in Cooroy last Saturday to attend a public forum on the controversial Cooloola Great Walk proposal and hear “some words from Kabi people who haven’t been heard yet”. Organised by environmental activist groups Protect Our Parks and Keep Cooloola Cool, the forum at Cooroy Memorial Hall devoted the first half of more than three hours to presenting an alternative First Nations’ view on the project as opposed to that of the elected Kabi Kabi Native Title Claimant Group, who are currently negotiating an Indigenous Land Use Agreement with the Queensland Government to co-manage the building and operation of a commercial “glamping” tourist attraction within the Cooloola Wilderness section of the

Great Sandy National Park, in partnership with commercial operator CABN. Since the project was first announced more than two years ago, it has attracted heavy criticism over its perceived lack of transparency, its economic sustainability, and, most frequently, over whether the Kabi Kabi people really want this to happen on land that will be theirs when the Native Title claim is finalised next April. As co-convenor Greg Wood of Protect Our Parks explained: “We’re devoting a lot of time to the Kabi viewpoint because it’s one of the most important issues of today’s meeting … The other side is relying on acquiescence and cynicism and confusion, so we want all of you to understand it and spread the word and act.” This was the first of many such calls to ac-

tion in an afternoon of highly emotive presentations that seemed to hit a chord with the audience, for whom the three-part takeaway might have been: the Great Walk project is being advanced against the wishes of the vast majority of Kabi Kabi people; if it goes ahead it is likely to destroy forever one of the great national parks of the world; and the Queensland Government is colluding with CABN and the seven members of the Kabi Kabi Claimant Group to turn Cooloola into a private profit centre. While none of the above is true, there are certainly many questions to be asked and answered about the Great Walk, a process which began (and was reported at length in this newspaper) last month at the Australian Institute of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Studies summit at the Sunshine Coast Conference

Centre, when Kabi Kabi Native Title applicant Brian Warner and CABN chief executive officer Michael Lamprell gave the first detailed report on the work in progress for public consumption. As reported, it raised almost as many questions as it answered, but it did reveal that the stakeholders had taken on board community and conservationist concerns and were reviewing such issues as where the camping sites would be situated, the size of their footprints and the impact of access tracks. The AIATSIS presentation was not mentioned at last Saturday’s forum, and nor was the fact that the sites at Poona Lake and in the Noosa River catchment area and close to the unique fens were being changed.

I’d like to say it’s been a welcome change to have this burst of chilly weather, but I’d be lying. I don’t think we’re geared up for it as we just put on a jacket and shiver. And it’s a shame for the school holiday visitors, particularly as the weather two weeks ago was so stunning. But perhaps they don’t notice it as much as we do. Noosa seems to be buzzing with people in cafes, restaurants, at the markets and by the river. And there’s lots happening this weekend to while away the hours, including the Noosa Busking Championship by the river on Saturday and the three-day annual Garden Expo starting today in Nambour. In news this week, Phil Jarratt is continuing to follow the controversial Cooloola Great Walk debate, exploring what came out of the public meeting held on the issue last weekend in Cooroy. Mayor Clare has been voted on to the Olympic Games organising committee giving Noosa a voice at the table. The latest Census gives us a snapshot of Noosa, providing the stats to confirm what we thought we knew about the shire. And lastly, there were two more serious accidents in the past week, one fatal, adding to a spate of recent crashes on the roads. Take care.

Greg Wood’s magical mystery tour of the proposed development.

Protesting the Great Walk From page 1 Speaking for the applicants, Brian Warner told Noosa Today he had not been invited to the forum but said the group was on track to finalise the site choices and step up the next round of Kabi Kabi consultation by September. Greg Wood’s slide show took the attentive audience on a tour of an earlier version of the proposed campsites and discussed the very real fears of environmental damage to them, but the fact is that the most contentious sites are no longer in the plan. Wood noted: “Growing numbers within the community are deeply concerned at the State Government’s failure to adequately engage with them upon the core principle of on-park development, and its failure to adequately engage upon and explain critical matters within the proposed development itself. The forum provides an opportunity to hear a summary of public concerns that remain problematically outside of the Government’s range of hearing, and to better understand public sentiment on those matters.” Keep Cooloola Cool founder Matt Noffke told the forum: “The Kabi Kabi people have been denied the process of consultation on this issue. I began to ask myself, was it incompetence or were they using a piece of legislation to hide behind and keep information from both Indigenous and non-Indigenous people? Why isn’t our government acting honorably over this? Where are the environmental groups and why aren’t they standing up for national parks? How has all of this gone so wrong? Most of the people involved in this project are running around doing deals … that don’t deliver great outcomes, deals between people who have lost their way, and we as a community are supposed to sit back and pretend it’s not happening, that our Great Sandy National Park is not being destroyed by a business model that thrives on segregation … We accept that each of us might have a different opinion on this, but … the project is a farce that does nothing to benefit our community, our environment or

Wit-booka and Aunty Dawn discuss the issue with Cr Amelia Lorentson. our First Nations people.” The Kabi people “we haven’t heard yet” were represented by Gympie-based elders Wit-booka, Aunty Dawn and a man introduced only as Darky, who have been involved in a long battle to protect the sacred site of Djaki Kundu from highway construction. Wit-booka began and ended optimistically and strongly “We have a magic word called Wirritjin, which means blackfellas and whitefellas working together, and this is what needs to happen … We all need to stand up against these unlawful corporations. So we stand with Matt and Greg and all you people in the spirit of Wirritjin, black and white working together to stop them destroying our culture and yours, and our way of life.” Aunty Dawn, a small, smiling woman, backed him up on this. “We really do appreciate everyone standing with us on this campaign because if we stand together united we’re on a winning track. We appreciate your help in this because if we win, you win.” Unfortunately, the middle of a forceful presentation went somewhat off topic and devolved into personal attacks on the elected

Native Title Claimants and a rambling dissertation about Aboriginal sovereignty since the Bunya Proclamation of 1842. Perplexed about the true message of Mr Wit-booka, I later read the information sheet he was handing out and was led to the website of the Original Sovereign Tribal Federation, where I found most of his source material. The Original Sovereign Tribal Federation was formed in 2010 by Dunham Badi Jakamarra, a Warlpiri man from the Northern Territory. Its website says it has a treaty with a “large number of tribes” and that it aims to unite the “original society nationally” and “expose the fraud being conducted against the tribes on behalf of the Crown Corporation by its UK and Australian parliaments”. In 2020, the Federation signed a memorandum of understanding with the fledgling Great Australian Party led by former One Nation senator Rod Culleton. Federation members have also been linked with the international Sovereign Citizens movement (“SovCits”), the Australia United Party and various anti-vax and far right groups. Most recently, the Federation was behind the storming of Canberra’s Old Parliament House last December and fire damage to the lobby, an act that was roundly condemned by ACT Indigenous groups and the original Aboriginal Tent Embassy. It’s difficult to fathom exactly what the OSTF wants but the existing Land Rights Act isn’t part of it, and in our local context, that probably means killing a deal built around it is on their agenda. Asked to summarise the outcomes after the Cooroy meeting, Greg Wood told Noosa Today: “The meeting conveyed the imperative that the current form and process of the Cooloola Plan must stop, and that the Nature Conservation Act must be reinstated to its original form (pre-2013) as Government cannot be trusted to interpret its current provisions in good faith with the public interest.

“Meeting participants were encouraged, and were enthusiastic, to share the information and to clearly present their objections upon the current situation to all levels of Government.” Matt Noffke said: “The forum has reinforced that this proposal is not in the community’s or environment’s interest. It has been developed for commercial enterprise and has no place in our National Parks. “Our elected representatives need to do their jobs and stand up for our community, the environmental sector needs to stop doing deals and protect the last remaining unspoilt and un-urbanised landscape we have.” Noosa Councillor Amelia Lorentson, the lone political representative present, said: “This is highly contentious development and there is a lot at stake, so it’s important to listen to all sides of the argument. You need to understand where the opposition is coming from.” I’ve spoken at some length to Wood and Noffke about the hard work they’ve put into this campaign, and I know both are genuine about their fears for Cooloola and what they see as the duplicity of government. I know that they also genuinely want to ensure that Kabi Kabi people are presented with the facts so that they can judge the Great Walk project on a truthful assessment, and at the end of the day, it will be a Kabi decision. But one thing that Greg Wood said in answer to a question about how we could move to stop the project stayed with me. “The best and quickest way to knock it off is to kill the Indigenous Land Use Agreement.” That might be true, but wouldn’t that be Kabi business? Meanwhile, in NSW last weekend Environment Minister James Griffin announced an expansion of the successful Aboriginal jointmanagement model of its national parks, aimed at paving the way to transfer the entire estate, which makes up 10 per cent of NSW, to traditional owners over the next two decades.

Mayor’s Olympic selection Noosa Mayor Clare Stewart has been appointed to the Brisbane 2032 Olympic and Paralympic Games Organising Committee after securing the support of the Council of Mayors (SEQ) to represent South East Queensland councils on the organising committee. “Brisbane 2032 provides a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to transform South East Queensland. Ensuring we deliver on this commitment to our communities will be a collective priority,” she said. Cr Stewart said her role was to advocate for all of SEQ - the Mayors and their regions. “We currently don’t hold an Olympics event (in Noosa), but that puts us in a perfect position to be an impartial broker and to advocate for all of SEQ, as I’m supposed to do in this role,“ she said. “We will play a supportive role and we will look to focus on areas where we can collaborate and support potentially pre-training venues, hosts of teams for training and so on.” Cr Stewart said her background would allow her to “advocate strongly for all areas”. “As a junior, I played tennis for Queensland

so I know what sport is about. And since my catastrophic accident, I also know what living with a disability is about. “The 2032 games will focus strongly on access and inclusion and I can bring a genuine real-life experience to any discussion in this area. “I also speak regularly with my good friend, former Olympian Dawn Fraser about the Olympics and her experiences and along with Dawn, one of the directors at Noosa Council, Larry Sengstock, is a four-time Olympian and former head of sport and operations for the Melbourne 2006 Commonwealth Games. “Together, they bring so much knowledge and experience to this space. We certainly have strong foundations to rely upon.” Cr Stewart said she strongly supported Noosa Council’s appointment to the SEQ Council of Mayors because “a united voice is a stronger voice”. “I look forward to continuing to work with my fellow Mayors to ensure our communities have a voice,“ Cr Stewart said.

Holiday fun no matter the weather With a maximum of 13 degrees Celsius on Tuesday it really was cold for a Noosa winter, but with holidays in full swing people tried to make the best of it. Despite the grey clouds, some braved the beach, though many opted for a cosy spot in a cafe close to the heater. Noosa Fair shopping centre provided fun indoor activities with craft experts Cathy and Mark setting up their paints and stencils and leaving the kids to their creative imaginations. Hopefully the BOM forecast will bring a mostly sunny day on Friday as predicted.

Op shop spreads the love By Margie Maccoll As the name suggests, Noosa’s new upmarket op shop, Making Lives Matter, aims to spread the love to all who enter, delivering practical and emotional support to people in need in the Noosa community. Former charity op shop manager Vedra Fernandez teamed up with Jude McCourt after they identified a need in the community they believed wasn’t being met. The Noosaville op shop is the first step in the realisation of a much larger vision of a community centre for people to access an array of services from counsellors to social workers to being a drop-in for a cup of tea and a chat, or a place to pick up essential items from the array of donated goods that are sold at reasonable prices, with proceeds invested in funding the services and initiatives. Vedra said after seeing people in the community who were struggling and asking for help being forced to wait, with just a referral given to see someone else, perhaps days later, it was decided something else was needed to show them that “Noosa has their back and they are loved“. She said from its building on Venture Drive, the plan for Making Lives Matter was to complement its downstairs op shop with a second level filled with support people and initiatives such as self help groups, art therapy and children’s activities. It was important someone needing help could sit down and talk to a person and receive assistance, she said. “People need to have human contact. There are a lot of people who are alone, who don’t have support. It’s an epidemic. “When they come in they’ll be able to see a counsellor, have a cup of tea, get support, have people to guide them.“ “I want to have frozen food in the fridge for homeless and a place where people with do-

Since opening in March the op shop has been overwhelmed by the response from the community from people wanting to help. Professional people have offered their time and they have about 50 volunteers, including Vedra’s partner, Douglas Payne, who has been

picking up large items for the store. Making Lives Matter provides a wide variety of quality pre-loved and vintage items including furnishings, textiles, clothing, jewellery, ceramics, electrical goods, and books. “The community op shop has affordable prices. We present it in a high end manner to honour the people who walk in the door,“ Vedra said.

Noosa lives summed up in latest Census data By Margie Maccoll The Australian Bureau of Statistics (ABS) last week released some of its data from the 2021 Census and for Noosa there were few surprises. There are more people living in Noosa, the cost of real estate has increased, people are employed in almost 42,000 jobs and on average they earn less than the rest of the country. According to the 2021 Census, the population has risen since the 2016 Census by about 3000 to 56,587 with a median population age of about 49 years. The median income is about $41,000 per annum which is about $10,000 below the national average. The top four employers in the shire are in the areas of food and accommodation (5300), health care (4000), retail (3700) and construction (2900) with about 600 people employed in agriculture, fishing and forestry and about

Census provides a snapshot of Noosa. 250 in IT and communications. There are about 7300 businesses in Noosa with most of them (4600) operated solely by the owners with no employees. When the Census was taken, more than 8000 people were receiving the age pension, 370 obtained a service pension and about

1700 were on a disability support pension. There were more than 4000 on Jobseeker payments, about 2000 on carer allowances and more than 4000 people qualified for Commonwealth rent assistance. ABS statistics from 2018 show that almost a quarter (24 per cent) or 13,000 people in

Noosa were living with a disability and of those almost 3000 had profound limitation. It also showed there were about 6600 carers. It’s no wonder we have traffic issues as the Census shows we are a region of vehicle owners. In 2020 there were more than 52,000 registered vehicles in Noosa including about 4400 motorbikes and only 56 electric vehicles. Noosa prides itself on its care for the environment and the Census backs this with statistics. Of Noosa’s 87,000 hectare land area, 21,000 hectares or 24 per cent is made up of national park and about 26,000 or almost 30 per cent is protected land. The ABS will be releasing more information over the coming months with more employment details forecast to be available in October, and more detailed information, like homeless figures not due for release until early next year.

After the endless floods PHIL JARRATT concludes his Proud Mary series Towards the One Mile, which is low lying ground, the scene is indescribable, and on every hand are to be seen houses of all sorts and sizes, household furniture, and debris of every description. The back yards and verandahs of most of the higher buildings present a curious appearance with all sorts of articles hung out to dry, and resemble nothing so much as second hand clothes shops. Mrs Tozer’s paddock is like a small settlement, and off the lower portion of the ground two houses have been deposited. The greatest amount of concentrated damage, however, appears to, have been suffered on the Great Eastern Road, where a complete settlement has been entirely swept away. Gympie Times, 11 February 1893 On 1 February 1893 a cyclone crossed the Queensland coast near Rockhampton signalling the beginning of the worst protracted flooding in Queensland and Wide Bay history. Although Noosa and the Sunshine Coast were still sparsely populated, the cyclones and floods of the first half of February 1893 devastated the main towns of Maryborough and Gympie, with loss of life and hundreds left homeless. The Mary River peaked at Gympie at a reported 25.45 metres, which remains its record height. Then 129 years later the Mary River peaked at 22.8 metres on Sunday morning 27 February 2022, the highest level since 1893. Some would argue that measuring procedures in the 19th century were nowhere near as accurate as they are today and that a new historical level was established this year, but this is mere semantics for the farmers, timber getters and treechangers of the Mary Valley. What was notable to them was that, just like 1893, the floods of 2022 went on and on and on. Near Kenilworth, the 15 residents of Walker

Road, including egg farmer Gordon McWilliam, whom you’ve met previously in this series, were isolated by raging flood waters from 25 February to 8 March, requiring two helicopter food drops. Their story was just one of many throughout the valley, as an autumn of misery and mould continued through to June. Although this series has focused on the upper river above Gympie, it is worthy of note that the Mary is a relatively long and complex system of considerable ecological and economic importance. From source to mouth, it is joined by 19 tributaries, including Tinana Creek, Mun-

na Creek, Obi Obi Creek, Yabba Creek, Wide Bay Creek, Six Mile Creek, Deep Creek and the Susan River. The river descends 209 metres over its 291-kilometre course and its catchment area is 9595 square kilometres, bounded by the Conondale, Jimna and Burnett Ranges. As Professor Tim Flannery commented in 2012: “It’s not the biggest, it’s not the longest, but I reckon it’s one of the most important rivers in Australia.” But it is also a misunderstood river, as Ian Mackay, chair of the Mary River Catchment

Co-ordinating Committee explained recently “Some refer to our river as the mighty Mary, and this leads many a visitor to be disappointed with what is, for most of the year, a modest river by anyone’s assessment. “Its might is something to behold when it floods though, and although the 1893 levels have never been surpassed, flooding is a rather regular phenomenon not only for Gympie and Maryborough but also for Kenilworth which has seen many bridges washed away in the last few decades.”

The beauty of the headwaters.

Flood damage near Imbil.

Further downstream after the flood.

Ian, a jovial yet wise retired schoolteacher who has lived in the valley with his family for more than 40 years, is truly the renaissance man of the river. In addition to his work with the MRCCC, he is a bush poet, writer, historian, conservationist and amateur beekeeper – I have a delicious jar of honey as evidence. He and wife Sally bought 20 acres in 1980, dismantled their cottage at Emu Park near Yeppoon, put it on the train south and rebuilt it above the river, where Ian has been adding on mud brick sections ever since. Although he was teaching full time in Gympie, Ian soon became embroiled in the environmental politics of the valley, joining

the Conondale Range Committee, little realising that he would be its president for the next 35 years. The issue of the day was to establish a Conondale National Park, which was achieved during the Goss government of the early 1990s. But in 1987, when Fred Murray, then mayor of Maroochy Shire, declared that unless another dam was built as soon as Barroon Pocket was finished, the Sunshine Coast would run out of water by the year 2000, another campaign began. A list of 19 sites was proposed and Conondale was on it, prompting a new fight against

the governments of the day, which the committee won. Interestingly, another site proposed was Traveston, which was dismissed out of hand as totally unsuitable, but that one would come back to bite the residents of the valley. Despite Traveston being rejected as a dam site by the Goss Labor government, in light of the region’s longest drought in 100 years, the Queensland Labor government of Peter Beattie announced in April 2006 its intention to dam part of the Mary River at Traveston Crossing, south of Gympie. Says Ian Mackay: “After the first dam plans were defeated in the early ‘90s, we decided to look at other means of handling the water issue. The government introduced WaterWise, water meters came in and consumption went down. The figure at the time was 530 litres per person per day. By the time Traveston came back on it was down to about 350. “So here we are in 2022 and we still haven’t run out of water! “Consumption is down to around 200, except Noosa, which is way above average. So things were moving in the right direction, but the Beattie government was hell bent on building a huge dam. “The thing is that it doesn’t matter how big a dam you build, the river goes dry for months most years and the dam will be near empty. That was basically the problem with Traveston. “Then this thing called a strategic reserve of 150,000 megalitres was announced, no one knew from where, and within a few weeks the Beattie government announced Traveston Dam, which would have pretty much the same volume. “Everything about the site was wrong. It had threatened species and the greatest community impact on freehold land, but the government seemed determined and the only thing that could stop it was Federal intervention.” After 20,000 people petitioned the State government and all local councils voted against it, the dam that would be “almost as big as Wivenhoe”, was cancelled in November 2009 after being refused approval by Federal Environment Minister Peter Garrett. Ian Mackay had worked strenuously

throughout the campaign, sending out press releases to keep the matter in front of the media, with considerable support from the Gympie Times. But he says: “The wedge it drove into the community was quite horrible, and it still flares up from time to time, because you have people who sold, people who stayed true to their principles and didn’t, and people who sold but leased back at a peppercorn rent and then bought back when the dam didn’t go ahead. “Since then there have been other battles, most recently the Borumba hydro proposal which initially seemed like another Traveston. “It isn’t, but the danger that a mega-dam proposal could come back is quite real.” Meanwhile, the Mary rolls on, over its banks some years, dry for long stretches in others. But according to Ian Mackay, appreciation of the river’s unique conservation values has grown since the first Mary River Congress 30 years ago. “Attention has shifted away from the floodravaged banks and has begun to focus on what lives in the Mary. “The Queensland lungfish was quite wellknown but few appreciate the scientific excitement its discovery in 1870 generated. Prior to that it had only been known to science through the fossil record. Finding living lungfish was akin to finding living dinosaurs. And the Mary River Cod finally has been recognised as a species in its own right rather than just a sub-species of the Murray Cod. And of course, the Mary River Turtle, which managed to elude scientific attention for years before being described in 1994, is now recognised as a rare species.” Riding my e-bike back to the coast, through the rolling hills of Bollier and Ridgewood and through Cooroy, I reflected on what a fascinating river the Mary is, and how proud and protective of it so many residents are. As I reached the escarpment at Tinbeerwah and took the old road down the hill to home, big rain drops started falling for the first time in a week. My first thought: I hope my new friends in the Mary don’t cop another round.

Houseboat sinks at sea The Sunshine Coast-based RACQ LifeFlight Rescue helicopter has located two men in a dinghy, surrounded by wreckage, after their houseboat sunk, off Rainbow Beach. The chopper was called to the scene by Queensland Police Service (QPS) just before 2pm on Friday 1 July. Once the crew located the partially sunken boat, about 300 metres off the coastline, they were able to communicate with the men and

confirm they were uninjured. The chopper hovered overhead, with the crew keeping a close eye on the boaties, while a Noosa Coast Guard vessel travelled out to pick them up and take them to safety. Two men were rescued from a dinghy amongst the wreckage of their sunken house boat on Friday, 1 July just off the coast of Rainbow Beach. Picture: RACQ LIFEFLIGHT

IN BRIEF Late night crash claims life A late night traffic crash on the Sunshine Coast has claimed the life of a man on Friday 1 July. Preliminary information indicates a Mazda sedan was travelling on Eumundi Noosa Road at Doonan shortly after 11pm when it left the roadway before crashing into a tree. The driver and sole occupant, who police believe to be a Sunshine Coast man in his 40s, was pronounced deceased at the scene. Investigators from the Forensic Crash Unit are appealing for witnesses, or anyone with relevant dash cam footage, to contact them.

Injured in Coolum crash A woman in her 30s suffered serious injuries after her car crashed into a pole in Coolum Beach on Monday 4 July. A critical care paramedic was on board to take the woman to hospital after the accident on David Low Way at 9.48pm. She was taken to

Sunshine Coast University Hospital in a serious but stable condition with facial, abdominal and pelvic injuries.

Mooloolaba armed robbery Sunshine Coast Criminal Investigation Branch (CIB) detectives have charged a man following investigations into the alleged armed robbery of a Mooloolaba business on the afternoon of 29 June. Police will allege around 3pm a man entered a news agency on the Mooloolaba Esplanade and produced a knife, before making demands for money. The young woman staff member, who was not physically injured, complied and the man fled on foot with a sum of money. On 2 July, investigations led police to charge a 47-year-old Mooloolaba man with one count each of armed robbery and stealing. He is due to appear in the Maroochydore Magistrates Court on 22 July.

Drugs and weapons seized in Caloundra Two men have been charged after firearms, dangerous drugs and cash were seized from a home at Caloundra West on Thursday 30 June. Officers from Sunshine Coast Tactical Crime Squad attended an address at around 11.30am on June 30 to execute a search warrant in relation to the alleged supply of dangerous. Upon arrival, police saw a man fleeing through garden area of the address, over a neighbour’s clothesline and onto the roof of a nearby property. A short foot chase folowed and the man was taken into custody after allegedly discarding a bag onto the roof of another home. A subsequent search of the bag uncovered a loaded handgun, a knife and almost $35,000 in cash. A quantity of dangerous drugs was also located on the man, including methylamphetamine.

Officers conducted a further search of the home and vehicles at the address and located various types of ammunition, dangerous drugs, a ballistic body armour vest, a hand gun, a self-loading centre fire rifle with a bayonet and further firearms. A 29-year-old Kuraby man was charged with seven counts of unlawful possession of weapon, three counts of possessing dangerous drugs, two counts of authority required to possess explosives and one count each of obstruct police, trespass, wilful damage and possession of property suspected of being the proceeds of an offence. A 38-year-old Caloundra West man was charged with one count each of possessing dangerous drugs, possessing utensils, authority required to possess explosives and offence to buy or possess medicines. Both were due to appear in Maroochydore Magistrates Court on 1 July.

Busking event returning The Noosa Busking Championships are back in 2022 for their fifth year at the Sounds of Noosa Foreshore event. On Saturday 9 July, the Noosa Foreshore will come alive for a fantastic free live music event, where talented and aspiring performers take to the Noosa River banks for a variety of street performances keeping audiences entertained for hours. From 8:30am to 2:30pm the Noosa River Foreshore along Gympie Terrace doubles as a stage for a wonderful array of artists who will rotate at busking stations dotted along the River performing for passersby. While the genres, talent and music will differ, the performers have a common goal - to get your foot tapping and your smile happening. There is an opportunity for spectators to vote in the People’s Choice Award by buying busking dollars from the token stands. All money from token sales goes towards the Rotary Noosa & Hinterland Flood Relief Charity to support those in the Gympie region affected by the recent floods.

On Saturday 9 July, the Noosa Foreshore will come alive for a fantastic free live music event.

The Noosa Busking Championships are back in 2022. The finals begin at 4pm on the main stage at Lions Park (Pirate Park). So grab a sausage from the Lions food van and settle in to witness finalists perform. Top prizes are on offer for such categories as Open, Primary and Secondary Students, Bands, Special Judges Awards and People’s

Choice Award to name a few. Tim Rook from Noosaville Business Association said, “We are excited to be involved with this event again in conjunction with Rotary Noosa after last year was such a success. “We were able to donate $5000 to Sunshine Butterflies as our 2021 chosen charity, which

was used to purchase a golf buggy to assist in transporting disability members around their property. “This Saturday will be an awesome live music event supporting the Hinterland Flood Relief whilst showcasing local and aspiring talent. “We’ve seen amateurs grow into both paid and signed artists from this event, so it’s well worth a look.” Stroll along the Noosa Foreshore and check out the 20 stations along the river or spread your picnic rug and relax to the tunes as buskers come and go – you may just witness a superstar in the making.

QCoast2100 funding helps build coastal resilience Critical funding is set to flow helping coastal councils develop more climate-resilient communities. Building on the Queensland Government’s budget announcement of $32 million to bolster community climate action, Environment Minister Meaghan Scanlon said more than $850,000 would be provided to six Queensland councils through its QCoast2100 program to tackle threats from coastal erosion and storm tide inundation.

“The science is clear. Climate change is increasing the frequency and severity of weather events,” Ms Scanlon said. “And while we’ve seen more than $10 billion in renewables investment to tackle climate change, we also need to help councils make sure their communities are equipped to deal with coastal impacts. Noosa Shire Council will receive $200,000 for the Integrated Coastal Management Solutions for Open Coasts and the Living Fore-

shores Noosa’ Phase 1: Designing for Resilience. Sunshine Coast Regional Council will receive $125,150 for the Collaborative Design of Special Area Adaptation Plans (SAAP). Minister Scanlon said the research conducted in one area could help councils in other coastal regions of Queensland. “Through the QCoast2100 program, local governments impacted by coastal hazards

can develop cost-effective mitigation strategies and share their research with other affected councils. “This successful program will help councils protect roads, stormwater infrastructure, recreation facilities and help conserve areas with strong natural values and cultural heritage values.” For more information, visit qcoast2100. com.au

The Race to Zero program has been working within schools and creating real behaviour change in both school and home electricity use. Students have been engaging with their

schools’ real time energy data over the past year and are generating great ideas to reduce emissions and energy waste. The Race to Zero competition, supported with thanks to Bendigo Bank Tewantin Branch, is designed to reward each and every student’s idea. The competition is now open with entries closing on 31July. To enter the competition simply grab a group of friends and submit a short video describing the initiatives your school is taking to reduce emissions.

Megan said it was important to plan and communicate from top to bottom and back up again. “When people are involved and understand where they fit and how they are important and relevant, they are more likely to get on board with change,“ she said. “Have courage in the face of adversity and always be open to creating and receiving opportunities.“ As a successful CEO, Megan said she’s discovered that optimism is indispensable to running an organisation. “We trust this may shed some light on what has helped Megan and the team over the 24 years and continue to propel us forward and wake up every morning grateful for the opportunity to be doing what we do,“ NoosaCare’s Danah Wood said.

Results finally published Results of experiments on electrical effects in ice conducted in Auckland in 1983-84 by Gary Turner, the co-Dux at Noosa State High School in 1974, was published at the end of May 2022 by the Journal of Geophysical Research in the United States. After moving house to Mooloolah in 2019 he was going through old boxes of material when he came upon his earlier papers. “As my wife, Annette, says I am a hoarder. I opened a file-box in which I had a manuscript from 1984,” he said. Gary’s co-author, Dave Stow, who was Gary’s PhD supervisor from 1980, had written across the top of the first page that there were too many variables to consider, so Gary had put it aside. “While pondering whether to discard the box, I thought to search online for recent research on the topic, especially those which had referenced my earlier published work with Dave. I read one from 2000 and initially ignored it as being too different from mine, but a few months later realised that there were two features in common with mine: two pieces of ice being repeatedly collided, and the unusual magnitude of the electric charge. That discovery sent Gary on what started as an interesting hobby to become a major piece of work in the past two years, with seven submitted versions. “At the end of 2020 each of three reviewers of the first submission said it could be published but with further clarifications of technique, explanation of older studies for the benefit of younger researchers, and speculation on the meaning of the results,” he said. Dave Stow said he admired Gary’s persistence. “I feel like I’m a close observer of a comet whizzing by this time,” he told Gary recently. “I think what amazes or bemuses Dave is that a US scientific paper published in 2000 is

Gary Turner with his published work. about the results of an experiment (to which we are comparing my results) that refers to Dave’s experiment of the early 1960s (for his Ph.D. in Manchester) as being the prototype apparatus.” Gary said. “So, 60 years on we are still going along, or around. At 82, Dave could be the oldest published physicist in New Zealand.”

In the experiment, the amount of electric charge that is separated when two neutral pieces of ice collide is measured. “Ice does not conduct electricity but something happens during collision, and while the quantity is very small, less than a picoCoulomb, the result of a large number of pieces colliding is what causes lightning, he said. A

picoCoulomb of electric charge is what would be gathered if 1 Amp of current was run for a million-millionth of a second,” Gary said. “After some months of pondering and rewriting, I re-submitted in June 2021. In the next reply from the editor, I was asked for more changes and more replies to comments by the reviewers. The number of reviewers increased (much to the amazement of my co-author). There were then four reviews saying ‘publish, with minor changes’ versus one ‘no, nothing new to see here’. “Of the second round, the funniest comment (by one of the yes reviewers), was to suggest that I put back in a set of results that I had removed after the first review, as that reviewer thought those results were of interest. I had removed that set as one of the other reviewers had thought I should not put them in unless I suggested an explanation. I thought there was already too much conjecture in trying to explain the main results. “Since then, one reviewer has persisted, through six rounds in total, with criticisms which overall has contributed to making the paper more pointed in distinguishing the various types of experiments in the past 60 years. “Of course, the fundamental problem is ice itself, with the relatively quick sublimation and the general impossibility of creating equilibrium conditions. As one of the other recent authors noted, and I am sure that many of us have also thought, whatever experimental technique is used to probe the surface, the inferred details of the surface-characteristics differ.” Gary’s mother, Dulcie, was a 20-year veteran cleaner at Noosa District high School until her death in 1994. Gary is co-author, with Steve Pinel of Unity College in Caloundra, of the popular Qld Senior Physics study-guide published by Cambridge University Press.

Noosa Grill’d team counts your votes The team from Grill’d Noosa have helped combat the concerning issues of homelessness with a National Takeover of their Local Matters fundraising program during June. During the past month, Grill‘d’s Local Matters program was dedicated to supporting organisations who help Australians facing homelessness, with guests allocating their Local Matters tokens to vote for their chosen charity. Grill’d will donate $75,000 across key charity partners, the Australian Red Cross, St Vincent de Paul Society and The Salvation Army. The Salvation Army head of public relations Major Bruce Hammer said, “Every 17 seconds, The Salvation Army in Australia helps someone at one of our services or programs.“ Extreme financial stress brought on by the pandemic made the risk of intimate partner violence three times higher, while changed

working conditions led to women being twice as likely to experience domestic abuse. Women living with violence are often caught between two heartbreaking choices: stay and suffer abuse – or leave and face homelessness. In the 2020/21 financial year, The Salvation Army provided 887,500 crisis beds to people experiencing homelessness. “Funds raised from the Grill’d Local Matters campaign will help us to continue to bring hope to people who are vulnerable and in crisis,“ Mr Hammer said. “We can be there for the long haul, as we journey with them through their toughest days and into a brighter future.” Grill’d founder and managing director Simon Crowe said, “We usually take what we’ve got for granted. “Most of us have a warm place to sleep, regular meals, and a roof over our heads. But

for some, this isn’t the case.“ Every day, hundreds of Australians facing homelessness approach charitable organisations for support. Within Australia, there are around 116,000 Australians experiencing homelessness. “That’s why in June, we’re giving back in a big way and taking our Local Matters program national,“ Mr Crowe said. “In addition to this initiative, we’ve recently launched a national program supporting those doing it tough in our cities, where every month we close five restaurants for an evening to give back to those who need it most. “We launched Local Matters in 2011 to give back to our local communities, because they matter to us. Since then we’re proud to say we’ve raised over $1 million per year and over $6 million since its inception, supporting over 30,000 community groups, organisations and projects.”

The Noosa Grill’d team were keen to support the cause.

Giving back to Bloomfield When Kharlia Beck, now 35, was diagnosed with bowel cancer three years ago, she was going through a different health process altogether. “I weighed about 145 kilograms and had decided to change my life,” Kharlia said. “Gastric bypass surgery started the process, and a gruelling bowel cancer treatment journey really locked it in.” She lost about 60kg and was now a healthy weight. “When people who knew the bigger me ask my weight loss secret, I tell them ’Cancer!’,” Kharlia said. Laughs aside, Kharlia was now cancer-free and sharing her story during Bowel Cancer Awareness Month (1-30 June). “It’s not easy to talk about bowel cancer… it’s not a pretty cancer – if such a thing exists. But I think it’s important to get the truth out there,” she said. “Maybe it will help someone going through it to hear this.” Bloomhill Cancer Care launched its Be There for Bloomhill Appeal this month, seeking community support to bounce back from big drop in op shop income due to the Covid pandemic. It is also holding Raelene’s Patron’s Gala and charity auction on 8 July and urgently needs to sell tickets. “On 8 July at Mercedes-Benz Sunshine Coast, our much-loved patron Raelene Boyle will celebrate Bloomhill’s 25th Birthday with a ticketed party and charity auction she hopes will raise $70,000 for Bloomhill,” chief executive officer Christopher John said. “If there is one year to support Bloomhill, it’s this year. “The op shops, which supply about 75 per cent of the charity’s income (in a normal, nonCovid year), have this year had sales dip so low Bloomhill was until recently eating into its sav-

Kharlia Beck, now 35, was diagnosed with bowel cancer three years ago. ings to keep afloat. “This year Bloomhill celebrates 25 years of providing individualised support, and we want to continue this for the next 25 years. With your ongoing help, we can.” Kharlia said she felt a “weird pain” in her side a couple of months after undergoing gastric bypass surgery. “The abdominal surgery went really well, and it was the start of my new, much healthier life. I was 32 years old,” Kharlia said. “I thought it was to do with the surgery, it was quite normal to have some pain as your body adjusts. I took antibiotics, but no matter

what they did, the pain wasn’t going away.” A colonoscopy just before Christmas 2019 revealed the shocking truth. It was bowel cancer and required immediate removal and chemotherapy. After undergoing treatments, Kharlia learnt at her first six-month check-up the cancer had recurred. A second round of treatments included major surgery, chemotherapy, radiation therapy and immunotherapy. The treatments caused side effects including peripheral neuropathy and fatigue, both of which can be assisted with therapies available

at Bloomhill Cancer Care. Kharlia encouraged the community to support Bloomhill as it has supported her. “I first found out about Bloomhill after my second lot of treatment,” Kharlia said. “Coming to Bloomhill for treatments takes some pressure of my beautiful mum who has done so much for me. It helps me to have some support I organised independently. “I was finding it really hard, I was isolated and felt like there was nobody to connect to. The art therapy sessions I joined were for younger people and they were in the evenings which suited me because I’m not a morning person. “It was so good to talk to people going through similar things because family and friends support me and love me, but they have their own stuff going on. “And they will never truly understand why you are the way you are - why I’m so tired, and why I’m so triggered by little things, or why I can’t drive to see them. “I was really searching for that and I think Bloomhill’s art therapy group has been the greatest help to me.” Since February last year, Bloomhill and Bowel Cancer Australia have worked together to support the first dedicated bowel care nurse in regional Queensland. “I provide patients with a constant, dedicated point of contact throughout their care, and offer ongoing support during and after treatment,” bowel care nurse Kirsty Ferguson said. “It’s been great enabling people to take a more active role in their bowel care treatment and helping to improve awareness in the wider community of how to prevent bowel cancer.” For tickets to Raelene’s Patron’s Gala fundraiser and charity auction on 8 July visit bloomhill.com.au/Event/raelenes-patronsgala-celebrating-bloomhills-25th-birthday

The first property is a 1797sqm site located at 144 Eumundi Noosa Road.

The second property comprises a single strata unit as part of the Noosa Decor Centre complex.

Snap up industrial space The chance to snap up a piece of highly sought after industrial space in the heart of Noosaville has arisen as two properties on Eumundi Noosa Road are up for auction. The first property is a 1797sqm site located at 144 Eumundi Noosa Road, while the second property is a 258sqm strata unit located at Unit 7, 169-171 Eumundi Noosa Road. Both properties are being brought to market by Ray White Commercial Noosa and Sunshine Coast North. The first property comprises eight industrial units, six which have sitting tenants and two which are occupied by the current owner. All of these have been on long-term monthly tenancies which provide buyers with flexibility to

owner occupy or secure existing/new tenants at an increased rental rate more in line with the current market. Lead agent Ray White Commercial Noosa and Sunshine Coast North director Paul Butler said the site was “ripe for renovation or redevelopment”. “This property has been held by the same owners since 1989,” Mr Butler said. “They have operated their businesses successfully from this location for over 33 years and enjoyed a steady income from the other tenanted units within the complex. “The site has a massive northerly view corridor through the adjoining NightOwl Shell Noosaville service station.”

The second property comprises a single strata unit as part of the Noosa Decor Centre complex. Lead agent David Brinkley said the property was currently used as the Regain Hope Charity Store and comprised a warehouse area used for second hand furniture/clothing storage/sales, office and a meeting room. He said tenancy could quite easily be returned to its original open plan layout if a buyer was seeking a workshop with storage. “The Noosa Decor Centre complex comprises only eight strata tenancies and enjoys frontage and access onto Eumundi Road as well as Commerce Court,” Mr Brinkley said. “Unit 7 is a warehouse with exposure onto Commerce Court and includes four allocated

off-street car park spaces. “The existing tenants, Regain Hope Charity Store, who have occupied the site since 2016, have had their lease term extended until 21 July 2022. “It will then revert to two-week roll-over terms to provide both owner occupiers and investors the ability to decide what suits their needs best.” The auction for 144 Eumundi Noosa Road will be held onsite on 22 July at 11am. The auction for Unit 7, 169-171 Eumundi Noosa Road will be held at the Ray White Commercial Noosa and Sunshine Coast North office at 90 Goodchap Street, Noosaville, on 15 July at 11am.

Local developer launches boutique apartment project Long-term Noosa builder Damien Davidson from Davrus has released Malolo, a brand new residential project which features 22 architecturally designed town homes and apartments at 89-95 Noosa Eumundi Road. Sales manager Jeremy Gilmore from 360 Property Group said the project was much needed in the Noosa area. “We really understand the Noosa property market having just come off the hugely successful Parkridge Noosa project which has sold $235m in stock over the past few years and, our latest project, The Whitely, has sold $35m in stock since its launch in November last year. “There’s an incredible amount of demand for brand new residential stock in Noosa and Malolo ticks so many boxes in terms of its design, location and a price range which meets the market from $800,000 to $1.5 million. “One of our big priorities is the sense of space and the two bed townhouse are around 100sqm internally while the four bedroom townhouses are up to 130sqm which doesn’t include the large deck and courtyard areas. “Body corporate fees will also be low because there is no swimming pool, gym or lifts

Malolo has been designed by Tewantinbased Blackwood Architecture and will be built by Vantage Building Group and includes 18 town homes featuring two, three and four bedrooms with an individual private courtyard area as well as four two bedroom, two bathroom apartments on a single level. Blackwood Architecture director Phil Til-

lotson said the vision for Malolo Residences was to capture the essence of living in Noosa though a subtropical, coastal architectural identity. “We have created spaces which are strategically located to capture the best qualities of the site and the region’s climate. Abundant light and ventilation was a priority throughout the design process and the end result is a look and feel which is timeless and welcoming and enhanced by high ceilings and gener-

ous private open space,” Phil said. Malolo is less than a kilometre from Noosa River while Noosa Civic Shopping Centre, Noosa National Park, Hastings Street as well as local restaurants, medical, employment and education facilities are all just a few minutes’ drive away. Construction is expected to commence later this year with a completion date of late 2023. For more information visit malolonoosa. com.au or call Jeremy Gilmore on 0418 943 787.

Secret ingredients: MasterChef Australia judges Melissa Leong, Andy Allen and Jock Zonfrillo.

Everyone is marinating in some shade of melancholy in this piquant British legal drama. Fancy clothes and luxurious homes are the tantalising polish in this tale about a clan of divorce lawyers who can’t seem to clasp onto contentment. We’re halfway through the third and final season and wondering how proceedings will wrap up. As Hannah and Nathan (Nicola Walker and Stephen Mangan, both pictured) struggle to extricate their shared lives, former flame Christie (Barry Atsma) arrives in town. JULIA ZEMIRO’S HOME DELIVERY ABC TV, Sunday, 7.40pm

After a decade of hanging out with well-known guests as they share the pivotal places and moments in their lives, this time host Julia Zemiro shares her own past with viewers. What’s more, she reminisces with four of her entertaining and thoughtful friends: Gardening Australia’s Costa Georgiadis (pictured with Zemiro), satirist Mark Humphries, comedian Judith Lucy and entertainer Justine Clarke. It’s a characteristically playful but highly emotional farewell. EMERGENCY Nine, Monday, 9.40pm

PICK OF THE WEEK MASTERCHEF AUSTRALIA 10, Tuesday, 7.30pm

After 14 seasons of MasterChef Australia, there is one person who commands a deity-like rapture. In tonight’s season finale, with two cooks left standing eyeing the $250,000 cash prize, British chef Heston Blumenthal is back to issue one of the evening’s two challenges. After round one gives the finalists 75 minutes to cook a sweet and savoury dish that impresses judges Jock Zonfrillo, Andy Allen and Melissa Leong, Blumenthal makes his return to the kitchen. Having waxed lyrical on egg and bacon ice cream through video link during the pandemic, he’s within ovens’ reach this year, with a sublimely delicate taffety tart on the menu.

The anxiety of witnessing some of the terrible accidents and situations in this series is thankfully tempered by the humanity, kindness and infinite goodwill of the medical professionals who try to take the chaos and uncertainty in their strides. Returning with a third season, Emergency goes behind the scenes at Royal Melbourne Hospital. Tonight, a young man who is “comfortably numb” is examined by Dr Emma West (pictued), and a motorbike rider is in danger of losing his foot after a shocking crash.

Ready for an EV revolution The Noosa EV Expo and Streetfest 2022 showed us that all things electric are on the community’s radar as thousands filled Noosa Junction to explore their options. Electrification can be an effective solution for almost all our transport options and Zero Emissions Noosa is paving the way. Beyond electric cars, the variety of electric trucks, buses, tractors, bikes, motorbikes and scooters available shows us that there are many benefits to going electric. As technology develops and improves, there will be no need to burn petrol and diesel to support our transport needs. This will also help us tackle the issues of climate change. If all cars on the road became powered by renewable electricity, we’d cut almost one-fifth of our emissions according to Peter Newman, Professor of Sustainability, Curtin University. This would be a great outcome in transitioning from fossil fuels to renewables. With cleaner air, quieter cities and reduction of costs as fuel prices rise. If we increased our uptake of e-bikes, escooters and all forms of e-transport, closing a road to cars provides a solution to sustainable development. The expo did this and it was carried out seamlessly with traffic diverted around the Noosa Junction precinct. Many travelled by bus, receiving two free trees for their efforts thanks to Noosa and District Landcare, and locals and visitors alike considered their travel options, arriving by foot, bike or scooter as well. Evidence shows that this works for a day, so could this not be extended in the future to become a carless precinct?

Matthew Flinders proud lads.

Wow! Check that out. Junior fun at the EV-Expo. This would require good planning and new policy and infrastructure, directed towards solutions yet it is certainly possible as demonstrated in other cities around the world. Noosa Junction and Hastings Street provide possibilities for this idea, and the future could see Noosa leading the way as an example for others to follow. Reducing traffic congestion as population grows and as a tourism town, service with a difference supports climate solutions. For our younger generation, the renewables and electric transport sector will grow new career opportunities. This is an exciting way to look towards future technology with hope and the Expo provided a platform for this to be showcased. Students were encouraged

to come along and discuss their options with exhibitors and get inspired by the projects presented. Year 6 students from Sunshine Beach State School showcased their Race to Zero project involving the use of Swap and Go battery technology. They were placed next to Janus Electric, where many conversations connected their project to a working fleet. Janus Electric’s ground-breaking battery technology has been developed by professional engineers and transport operators, dedicated to providing Australian road transport businesses with a smarter, safer, and cleaner alternative, placing Janus Electric at the forefront of the next phase of road transport globally.

NOOSA MATS & RUGS

Matthew Flinders Anglican College students converted an old Land Rover to electric using innovative design and technology. They registered the car and drove it to the expo, paving the way and eager to share their experience. The UQ racing team brought a diverse selection of engineering, business, marketing, and IT students to the Expo. Their car showed the possibilities of electrifying the racing sector and further complements the teamwork, project, and resource management necessary to creating innovative winners! The contributions of electric technology are bringing more excitement to education and innovation and possibilities for communities. To learn more, follow Zero Emissions Noosa as we provide information on the full spectrum of electric transport options, including those non-car-centric, for enhanced liveability and the development of future career paths for our youth designing a Zero Emissions future.

On The Soapbox Noosa Mayor Clare Stewart

Big steps for Council Well, it’s been a big couple of weeks here at Council. As many know, we have adopted a $160 million dollar budget for the 2022-2023 year which centres on boosting the local economy, protecting Noosa’s environment and maintaining levels of service for our shire. There’s more than $17 million for roads and transport, a $42 million capital works program and almost $8 million for environment and waste initiatives. There’s also $2.7 million for parks, playgrounds and sporting fields. Resealing of the Shire’s roads is on the radar with an allocation of $5.3 million. Over 40 per cent of the reseal funding is directed at hinterland roads. Our Liveability Survey results guided the 2022-23 Budget, with $24 million in new projects that align to the Liveability Survey priorities. $520,000 for traffic management initiatives to help bust congestion includes a continuation of the weekend free bus trial.

There’s funding to explore the possibility of upgrading the Noosa Woods jetty to create an alternative ferry stop as part of the Sustainable Transport Strategy to improve connectivity and get more people out of cars and on to alternative modes of transport. Council is not immune to rising costs and councillors worked incredibly hard to soften the impact of these rising costs and soaring land valuations on rates. With waste charges and levies included, for the average Noosa ratepayer, the total rates bill increase equals about $1.53 per week. Council joins with the hinterland community in awaiting the final decision of the Planning and Environment Court regarding the Kin Kin Quarry case. Council put forward extensive evidence from residents, council employees, a town planning expert and a traffic safety expert. The legal team has done an exceptional job arguing our community’s case. Council will continue to monitor the opera-

tions of Cordwell Resources to ensure they are complying with the Quarry Management Plan. Council will soon be seeking community input into the Draft Housing Strategy. The draft strategy is a key tool in addressing the challenging issue of affordable housing and is the most progressive and aggressive step that Noosa Council has taken in this space. Council will seek community views in July, comprising a series of pop-in sessions, an online survey and other engagement initiatives. Solving the issue requires investment from all levels of government, but Council can take steps to develop local solutions. Council will establish a Housing Reference Group to work on implementing the strategy. All sectors of the community are asked to review the draft strategy and provide thoughts on how best to tackle the current housing crisis in the shire. We will begin engaging with the community on the draft Housing Strategy on 11 July for a four-week period.

On a personal note, I would like to thank all of our community who gave support to the Vinnies CEO Sleepout. Both myself and Noosa Council CEO Scott Waters, along with many other community leaders, spent a chilly night sleeping on the beach to raise funds and awareness for people experiencing homelessness and people at risk of homelessness. The overall contribution from the 40 participants was just over $185,000, which is a new record for the CEO Sleepout event on the Sunshine Coast. And finally, last Friday I was elected by secret ballot to join the Brisbane Organising Committee for the 2032 Olympic and Paralympic Games by my fellow South East Qld Council of Mayors. I am incredibly proud to receive this support and am both humbled and grateful. Until next month, stay safe, Clare

Help the homeless I am horrified to see so many homeless people on the coast, some due to the recent floods losing their homes. Councils/ governments seem to talk a lot without results. For example, in Gympie there is the old Kybong service station shut down for a year now. It has a large brick building with a large internal area. It has electricity, showers and toilets. This would be perfect for a temporary accommodation, specially right now in winter. The government should contact the owners and ask them to temporarily use these premises. I am sure there are many premises vacant on the coast suitable for temporary accommodation. Nobody should ever live on the streets. Unfortunately our politicians have the “I am all right Jack attitude” and nobody cares about the homeless. So many more are in the same predicament now due to extremely high rents, unable to find suitable accommodation. Is Australia still the lucky country?

Why does the army not get involved building temporary accommodation for them. Gunter Lippmann, Noosa

Problem is demand, not supply While I am sure councillors are well intended, their perception that Noosa has a housing shortage is superficial. Shortages are determined by both supply and demand. Our community has long since recognised that, in our particular instance, encouraging more residents is unsustainable. Put simply, our problems stem from demand, not supply. John Clark, Cooroy

I, for one, see your frustration in regard to our Noosa Council and regulation of Local Laws. It is not just the non-regulation of shortstay letting but most Local Laws. Local Laws regarding advertising, parking, footpath trading to name a few. I know of requests in regard to these Local Laws that have not been regulated for over five years in the hinterland areas of Pomona, Cooroy and Cooran to name a few, despite residents’ numerous requests for this to be done. I am aware of instances where one offender has been visited by an officer on numerous occasions and they continue to breach the law. A fine is never considered. The administration of this regulation is all at the cost to the ratepayer, not the offender. How about issuing some fines? How about some regulation in the hinterland areas and the cost of the regulation paid for by the offenders, not the ratepayers? How about a reply from our CEO and Mayor on Local Laws, regulation and non-compliance? No, it may not make you popular with the offenders, however, effective laws and regulation of those laws, help make a better and safer community. Ashley Spresser, Pinbarren

I was surprised and disappointed to not see more shops and businesses in Noosa selling the Mark Hughs Cancer Foundation beanies, especially with the daily reports of brain cancer and it not being selective with who (young and old) it chooses. Come State Of Origin, Queensland beanies are everywhere. So we are a State of NRL fans and also supporters. This weekend the beginning of July gave an insight and a reminder into brain cancer needs for financial assistance and they were on sale at all NRL games. We can also boast of being supporters of giving to those in need. I was fortunate on Saturday morning to get one from IGA, St Andrews Drive which I believe was their last for that day, compliments of my son and daughter in-law.

Dr Google advises IGA and Lowes sell them and they are also available on line. beanie@markhughesfoundation.com.au Ernest Wright, Tewantin

Cost of facts ignored The January 6 hearings in the USA revealed that Trump had been told by almost every one of his advisors that the election had been won by Joe Biden and that there was no corruption. Trump continued to behave as if he did not know this, but he had been told. He was unable to anticipate the dangerous consequences of his denial. There is a parallel here in Australia. For nine years, the Coalition had been told by scientists and economists from all over the world that climate change, due to the burning of fossil fuels, was real and that to delay the development of renewable energy, the upgrading of transmission wires, the advocacy of EVs and the introduction of a carbon tax was to ensure enormous costs as the deadline for reaching net zero emissions neared. So, here we are. Even though we could have been well on the way to a better future if the Shorten policies had been embraced three years ago, we are now faced with overcoming a decade of environmental and economic delinquency. Just as Trump will be remembered for bringing the USA to the brink (or God forbid, the abyss) of totalitarianism, we must remember the Coalition, led, especially, by Abbott and Morrison, as the goats that brought us to the brink of food and fuel, if not military and economic, insecurity. You cannot complain about the floods or fires or droughts or costs of food or even the cost of petrol if you voted for the Coalition or any of the right-wing minor parties that treat science like a suspicious activity. If you don’t own an EV, it is likely because there has been no plan to encourage us to buy them. Hopefully, that will soon change. So, in spite of the cost of nearly $300B to upgrade our transmission system, it has to be done or the cost of not doing so will be even greater next year. Short-sighted, conservative economics has never been a good idea. Steve Hall, Cooroy

CARA: the first 10 years By CARA president Rod Ritchie Noosa Shire is diverse, and certainly more than just its famed coastal attractions. Just 30 minutes drive west of lively Hastings Street, the hinterland’s main town, Cooroy, is undergoing a metamorphosis. With its origins in timber harvesting and dairying, its rural nature is still evident in the very fabric of this rapidly evolving town, which these days is bursting at the seams. However, it retains small town feel and has a friendly vibe. When I moved here in 1999, Cooroy’s main streets were relatively quiet, and it was a rural service centre, with basic retail and service industries, and the education hub of the hinterland. The Bruce Highway had been recently diverted from the centre of town, the timber industry was about to be restructured by the SE Queensland Forests Agreement, which led to many of the state forests becoming national parks, and the local Boral Timber Mill closed down. The dairy industry had long ceased operations, the bean crops which grew in northfacing slopes had all but disappeared, and the brick factory was heading for its final years. Brilliantly, Noosa Council initiated a streetscaping and placemaking project that included residents’ monogrammed, locally fired pavers in the footpath upgrades. Fortunately, many of the old buildings survived the years of slow progress and gems like The Memorial Hall, the Post Office, The Butter Factory and the Cooroy Railway Station (1911) signalled Cooroy’s proud history as a working rural town. Fast forward 10 years to 2009 and urban growth was well underway. Not far from the coast, but with less traffic and a quieter lifestyle, Cooroy saw a jump in its population. New housing subdivisions, light industrial zones out of town, a new supermarket, a new school, renovated shops and offices, and building renovations that signalled change. The new settlers, who appreciated this little town and its big heart, saw Cooroy as the perfect place to live, brought new skills and vitality to the town. They bought up the old houses in town and rural blocks with enough room for hobby farming. The railway line offered access to Brisbane, while highway upgrades saw distant destinations become closer in travel time. The Old Mill Site was transformed into a woodworking centre, The Memorial Hall received a large council grant for renovation, while the hospital, established in 1910, was repurposed as a major rehabilitation centre. Out of town, the brickworks became a drinks factory, while a stunning, award-winning library opened its doors in 2010. In recent years, Cooroy has often been regarded as an overflow destination for visitors to the coast, a sort of West Noosa, if you like. The siting of a major tourist attraction, the $7.2m Hinterland Adventure Playground, is an example of a facility designed to turbo-charge the hinterland’s visitor numbers. Not all new retail outlets popping up were huge, rather they were often quirky. A year ago, on the road to Black Mountain, a classic old Melbourne bus appeared at the gate to the owner’s property. It was fully kitted out as the Bus Stop Espresso. It was an instant suc-

Bus Stop Espresso continues to operate with community support. cess, especially as a pop-up meeting place for the many Black Mountain residents affected by the recent drastic post-flood landslip. Of course, council was quick to ask for a development application, and there was a chance the business would have to close. A huge social media outcry from Cooroy folk saw both councillors and planning staff looking for ways to support such rural enterprises which both sell local produce and become social hubs for rural communities. More recently, in the centre of town next to the post office, a railway carriage appeared one day. Turns out a local entrepreneur had acquired the former meat wagon from down south and set it up on rails. Before long a thriving wood-fired pizza business was operating. Again, there was a scramble to get council approvals. The rail carriage is now home to a grand piano which is played on Friday and Sunday evenings. Plans are afoot to screen classic movies from the rear of the block. CARA is on the case The Cooroy Area Residents Association Inc (CARA) was formed 10 years ago to advocate for residents in the town and its surrounds. CARA runs Cooroy Community Noticeboard, a Facebook page with 12,600 subscribers. Our members, including a committee of six, monitor new developments, lobby councillors, and generally look to seek all the protections the New Noosa Plan can provide the town with. Our aims are: To provide for the betterment of Cooroy and its surrounds, with particular focus on the area’s residential community. To facilitate two-way communication with

on development applications, the New Noosa Plan, and short-term accommodation. And we’ve sat on council reference groups for sustainable tourism, new flight paths, local cycleways, and the Hinterland Playground. So, head west, take your time to sit at a footpath table of one of the many streetside coffee shops, and watch the locals go about their daily business. This certainly is not the coast, but it’s all the more interesting for its authenticity.

Stroke Foundation stands up for NAIDOC Week Stroke Foundation is encouraging Australians to get involved in NAIDOC Week celebrations. The annual event celebrates Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people, their culture, history, and achievements. This year’s theme encourages Australians to Get Up! Stand Up! Show Up! for systematic change. Stroke Foundation chief executive office Sharon McGowan said NAIDOC Week is an opportunity to recognise the significant contribution Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people have made, particularly in the public health field. “We believe everyone deserves the chance

to lead a healthy life and have access to best practice healthcare,” Ms McGowan said. “Listening to gain understanding and respecting the rich and diverse culture of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people is key to being able to meet their needs. We know that as an organisation we have much to learn which is why participating in events like NAIDOC Week is so critical.” Stroke Foundation is committed to celebrating and supporting Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people and culture, the oldest living culture in the world. Ms McGowan said the statistics do not favour First Nations people, as regional and remote Australians were 17 per cent more

likely to suffer a stroke than anyone living in metropolitan areas of Australia, and a significant portion of First Nations people live in regional and remote areas of Australia. “We know Australia’s First Nations people are 1.3 times more likely to suffer a stroke that non-Indigenous people and are hospitalised 1.6 times more,” she said. Stroke Foundation encouraged all Australians to get involved and support events in their local communities. The organisation is developing its first Reconciliation Action Plan (RAP) which will detail how it intends to support and build meaningful relationships with Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples to prevent

stroke, save lives and enhance recovery. National manager StrokeConnect Support, and RAP project lead, Luke Hays, said the draft plan’s feedback from Reconciliation Australia, the lead body for Reconciliation in Australia, had been positive. “Reconciliation Australia is pleased with our progress. They even recommended Stroke Foundation bring forward the finalisation and launch of our RAP,” Mr Hays said. “This is a great endorsement of the progress Stroke Foundation has made on the RAP to date and the working group is now working to a launch this inaugural plan later this year.” Friday, 8 July, 2022 NOOSA TODAY 31

Art from Noosa to Somerset at Condensary Add some pep to your live jazz

Noosa Regional Gallery founding director and artist Merton Chambers will present a late career survey exhibition of work this month at The Condensery, the Somerset Regional Art Gallery at Toogoolawah. The Apple and the Knife, brings together work produced by Mr Chambers over the past 40 years. The exhibition showcases his unique graphic style and vivid use of colour, a response to the luminosity of the light of his adopted home and the environmental concerns that have guided his approach to art over the past four decades. The Apple and the Knife is the first solo presentation of work by the highly recognised artist in his newly adopted hometown of Toogoolawah. Merton Chambers had a significant career in North America producing large scale public art commissions and achieving recognition for his contribution to the arts and crafts movement before moving to Australia. He moved to the Brisbane Valley in 2003 and has continued to practice his art. The works selected for The Apple and the Knife are beautiful and lush images of the natural world – sensitively rendered drawings of the plants, fruit and vegetables that grow in his garden. There are densely rendered graphite and geometric drawings of abstracted light, colour field drawings and depictions of energy. What unites the work is its strength of colour, technical proficiency and a sensitivity to light and the natural world. Merton Chambers’ work is held in major collections in North America and Australia including the Government of Canada, the Art Institute of Ontario, the Ontario Board of Education Canadian Museum for Contemporary Fine Crafts and Queensland Art Gallery, Gallery of Modern Art as well as numerous private and corporate collections. Also in The Condensery will be video work by Ipswich based artist Donna Davis titled DEcompose. As the title suggests, DE-compose explores the world’s hidden ecological players, such as termites, microbes and fungi and the processes of decay. Ms Davis’ work shines a light on the essential relationships between humans and nature in a beautiful, immersive experience. The Apple and the Knife and DE-compose open 9 July and continue until 4 September at The Condensery, 29 Factory Road, Toogoolawah. 32 NOOSA TODAY Friday, 8 July, 2022

The waters of Noosa Marina are set to vibrate to the sounds of traditional jazz with a new band hitting the stage. The Hot Peppers Jazz Band is playing at the Noosa Harbour Wine Bar on Tuesday 12 July from 12.30-3.30pm. Band leader Rod Andrew said there would be a traditional line-up of instruments in the band as they play jazz tunes from the 1900-1930 heyday of jazz. The six-piece, including trumpet, reeds, trombone, piano, tuba and drums, is set to provide plenty of up-tempo music perfect for dancing. “Make sure you bring along your dancing shoes,” band leader Rod said. “We’re aiming to have lots of fun.” Nationally and internationally recognised, the Hot Peppers Jazz Band has a new Queensland-based line-up. Many of the band members have more than half a century of playing experience and all are well-versed in the traditional jazz genre. Several of the musicians previously played in well-known Brisbane bands and are now on deck to entertain Noosa audiences. “This is a bit of an experiment,” Rod said. “We’re testing an earlier time slot as many people don’t like to be out in the cold in this weather.” “Come along and enjoy some food and wine, not to mention the ambience of the Noosa Harbour Wine Bar and Marina. If this goes well, we’ll certainly put on more shows,” he said. Over to you jazz lovers. For bookings, contact Neale at the Noosa Harbour Wine Bar on 0418 339 930.

The trials of modern travel By Phil Jarratt Remember when multi-millionaire leprechaun and Qantas chief executive officer Alan Joyce won the hearts and minds of travellers around the country by suggesting that it wasn’t his airline’s mass sackings during Covid causing airport queues around the block but rather the fault of people who were no longer “match fit” for flying? That went down well, didn’t it? But of course there was an element of truth in it. After more than two years of international travel being an impossibility for most Australians, not only had we become rusty about the frequently tricky and occasionally stressful process of travel, but practically all the rules had changed, and in the case of Covid protocols, continued to change about every third day. Considering that we were only starting to come out of a pandemic this was understandable and perhaps inevitable. But what astounded my wife and I, when we finally decided to get back in the saddle some three months after international travel again became possible, was the way in which ours and other governments have created insurmountable roadblocks along the pathway to digital documentation. Remember the CovidSafe app? No, no-one does. That was when we first realized that the Australian Government doesn’t have an IT department. Shouldn’t that debacle have tipped them off to outsource app building or abandon it? Evidently not. We’ll get back to that in a minute, but this was a quick trip up to Bali, flying direct both ways, the kind of trip we’d been doing up to 2020, at least once, often twice a year since the ‘70s. You could do it in your sleep, or so we thought. Shortly after the ticket purchase, the airline began peppering me with texts to ensure we complied with a very long checklist, and linking to our own government’s SmartTraveller site which in turn links you to the compliance sites of your destination. This led to the expensive acquisition of comprehensive Covid-specific travel insurance and downloading something called the

Brisbane Airport chaos. Peduli Lindungi app, neither of which we were ever asked to show, and the latter of which even our Balinese friends didn’t seem to know much about. All of this was annoying but not soul-destroying. That came seven days before our return, when the airline began texting frantically again about the absolute necessity of registering a Digital Passenger Declaration, either online or by using an app created for the purpose. This was supposed to streamline the work of the Australian Border Force by digitising the old orange-printed arrival card alongside your customs declaration and Covid vaccination history. The only problem was it didn’t work.

open it on the app nor on the website, password not recognised. I gave up. Arriving very late into the Brisbane terminal – a passenger had become sick and we were held on board until a quarantine team could come on board and examine her – we realized that we were far from alone in our inability to travel in the new age. By my estimate at least half of the passengers on our flight had to be manually checked through. Just like the good old days. The pleasant Border Force official who helped us through was frank about it. “It doesn’t work,” she said, “and in a few days’ time it won’t exist.” Hope she’s right.

I spent countless hours that might better have been spent surfing or sipping cocktails by the pool laboring over the smartphone uploading copious pieces of information that I already had as files on my phone and as paper printouts. I know what you’re thinking – he’s a Neanderthal, a tech Luddite. Maybe a little bit, but I know my way around a good app and I recognise a bad one. To follow my drift, I suggest you try booking a hotel on the Booking.com app (estimated time one minute) and then try creating an Australian Digital Passenger Declaration (estimated time three to four hours). On the morning of our return flight I thought I’d better try out the DPD. Couldn’t

Oliver JR comes to Good Shepherd Lutheran College Consider yourself at home when Good Shepherd Lutheran College brings to life Oliver JR! the classic Broadway Junior version of Lionel Bart’s classic musical based on Charles Dickens’ Oliver Twist. Rehearsals are well under way for the College’s junior musical which has been in the making since last year. The story begins in Victorian London when an orphaned and mistreated Oliver becomes the neglected apprentice of an undertaker.

Oliver escapes and is taken in by a rag tag group of misfits led by the scheming and charismatic Fagin. He finds acceptance among this group of petty thieves. When Oliver is accused of a crime he didn’t commit he is taken in by the kind hearted Mr Brownlow. Navigating London’s underworld, Oliver searches for a home and a family and most importantly - love. With timeless songs and an enthusiastic junior cast Oliver JR! will delight.

NAIDOC Week celebrated NAIDOC Week (July 3-10) celebrations began with an annual flag raising ceremony attended by more than 300 people at Sunshine Coast Council’s Nambour administration building. This year’s NAIDOC Week theme is Get Up! Stand Up! Show Up! which calls on the community to rally for systemic change and continue to support and secure institutional, structural, collaborative, and cooperative reforms. Sunshine Coast Council Mayor Mark Jamieson said the annual flag raising ceremony was always a special and thought-provoking way to start NAIDOC Week events held across the region. “Council is committed to continuing to de-

This production vividly reimagines the treasured and symbolic songs of the 1960s and ‘70s that spilled across our airwaves during the Vietnam War, songs that questioned, stirred and reflected the political turmoil and massive cultural changes happening during one of the most far-reaching and divisive events of the 20th century. This exciting production brings together a group of outstanding musicians and vocalists to deliver superb interpretations of some of the most iconic pop, folk, soul and rock songs of the time. A projection design backdrop adds compelling storytelling and scenescape elements depicting the groovy psychedelia of the flower power movement as well as images of the despair, protest and resistance that was flaring in the city streets of America and here in Australia. Good Morning Vietnam, Music from the Vietnam War Era offers knockout renditions of songs by Creedence Clearwater Revival, Buffalo Springfield, Steppenwolf, The Beatles, Nancy Sinatra, Aretha Franklin, Janis Joplin, The Animals, The Doors, The Rolling Stones, Jimi Hendrix, Marvin Gaye and many more.

A powerful exhibition of artworks by leading First Nations artists Jennifer Herd (MBarbarum) and Joanne Currie Nalingu (Gungurri) recently opened at Caloundra Regional Gallery and included several debut pieces. Veiled Histories: Works by leading First Nations artists captures the artists’ enduring careers – from Jennifer’s shields as a metaphor for strength and protection, through to Joanne’s distinctive linear patterning symbolising her deep spiritual connection to the river. The exhibition is on until 26 August and entry to the all-access gallery is free. Sunshine Coast Council arts portfolio Councillor Rick Baberowski said the exhibition was a well timed contribution to NAIDOC and featured two exemplary visual storytellers. “I consider it a central and critical role for our regional gallery to show new works by these well established First Nations artists,” Cr Baberowski said. “I understand our gallery has been working closely with the artists and FireWorks Gallery to source both new and earlier works, culminating in a powerfully representative exhibition which shows the artists’ journey of discovery and development. “The exhibition program also features a free artists’ talk, revealing the back stories and motivation behind their works. There are also youth art trails and other family activities within the art space to help engage and inspire all members of the family.” Caloundra Regional Gallery manager and curator Jo Duke said the exhibition was deeply moving, examining connections to the past for both Indigenous and

Age is no barrier Noosa Junction based CAZA Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu’s John Bennett, 71, has become the oldest member to be awarded black belt at the club. Bennett is already a Judo Coral belt (sixth dan black belt), making this his second black belt in two martial arts considered particularly difficult to achieve such ranks. Starting out in his Judo career many decades ago in Glasgow, Scotland, Bennett now calls Noosa his home. “John is a legend that I am honoured to have in my gym,” CAZA’s professor Yoshi Hasegawa said, who has a third degree Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu black belt. “I knew his name as a Judo master before he joined my classes and now, he has also reached black belt in Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu – amazing. And he achieved this after hip replacement surgery.” John is now looking to continue passing on his experience and knowledge to younger competitors of both Judo and Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu and has still not ruled out competing again. CAZA Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu (BJJ) is a Noosa Junction-based martial arts school that opened in February 2017 and is owned by Japanese-born head instructor (called a professor), Yoshinori Hasegawa.

Holidays kick off with rain

Snapper from north reef from recent Trekka 2 charters. also picking up golden and diamond trevally. Bait anglers are finding whitebait and mullet chunks working on flathead and bream. Much like offshore fishing if you can present a single hook on a light line, you will see better results. Running graphite rods and braided line puts you in direct contact with the bites allowing you to feel everything. For those uncertain on how to tie a braid to leader knot please come in and ask us as once you try braid, you’ll be amazed just how sensitive it is. Freshwater fishing in the dams and lakes has been on hold lately due to poor water quality. This latest rain should see the suspended mud settle and these areas clean up significantly. With potentially clearer water, the bass could be just about anywhere but find areas where the heat from the sun (when it’s out) is hitting the bays. Work lures around weed points and edges as weed holds heat. Try slow rolling soft plastics and using micro jigs like the Jackson Iga jig spin. This little lure has worked wonders on shut down fish as it is small and has massive vibration. Winter fish often don’t want a big meal so fish small if struggling to get the bite and you are finding fish on side scan. Now, for all the latest information log onto fishingnoosa.com.au for up-to-date bar and fishing reports, don’t forget to drop into Tackle World Noosa, Noosa Boating and Outdoors and Northshore Bait & Tackle in Marcoola for all the right equipment, bait and advice to get you catching. Be sure to follow us on Facebook and remember Tight Lines and Bent Spines!

Well, here we are with another month down as we push deeper into winter. The start of the school holidays was greeted with rain and despite the conditions the fishing has been great. Offshore has seen a slight 1-1.2m swell running and offshore winds especially over the weekend. In the rivers, the post-moon bite has seen many anglers landing a wide range of species with some trophy fish. Offshore right now is all about snapper and with the season open until the 15th, reports are strong. Fish have come in with the tides last week and the cool change is seeing them hang around. Sunshine, chardons, jew shoal and halls will all be holding their fair share of fish and, if you are south of Sunshine, then take a trip down to Coolum. Anchoring and running a slow steady burley trail is working very well especially on 20lb gear with a tough fluorocarbon leader like FC Rock. This light line approach has been the goto method, especially when the sun is out and conditions are calm. Those on plastics should look no further than the curly tail grubs in pink, white and blue colours. Having these on ¼-3/8th jig heads on 20-30lb leader works wonders. The big snapper are happy to come up the water to just below the surface in search of a feed so keep your plastics in this upper area. Surf fishing is starting to fire up with tailor and jewfish now making an appearance all along the coastline. Bait anglers will do well with squid and mullet baits. If you can catch them, a bunch of live worm on a hook can also work very well. No matter how you fish for jewfish, your actions once the jewfish picks up your bait is all about patience and timing. If you are losing fish, be sure to come in and ask us how to best keep the hooks into these big fish. Tailor are taking surface lures and slugs around the mouths all along the coastline with a mix of trevally swimming with them so break out your medium weight river rods and enjoy these sport fish. With the rains, the river has seen the mud crabs and fish on the move. The river mouth has seen some great fishing with the baitfish holding around this area. They are also holding in woods bay and around the lower estuary area. Like the surf, the tailor and GT are feeding together and taking a wide variety of lures and baits. For the young guns the Bassday Sugapen ripped across the surface is picking up big fish and the micro jigs from major craft are

Juniors eye championship Noosa Springs is on the brink of defending the junior pennant championship it won last year after another solid win over a powerful Maroochy River 2 team at Cooroy on Sunday. With just one more round to be played in Division 1, the Noosa Springs juniors are on top of the standings, having gone through the first five rounds undefeated – scoring two wins and three draws. Much of that success is due to the play of Sunday Moore, the Noosa Springs’ number 1 player, who has gone through the season undefeated. She beat Maroochy River’s Ionna Muir 2up on Sunday to lead her team to a 3-1 win. Younger sister Coco Moore beat Lily Surassen 5&4, while Alex Bray beat Blair Green 1up. Only Jasmine Lena, a member of last year’s champion squad, lost, going down 6&5 to Marley Habermann. In the other Division 1 contest, Noosa drew 2-2 with Maroochy River 1, despite having to forfeit a match when in-form Maddison Kelly and Bronson White were unable to play. But Noosa’s Shane Dunning beat Alex Procopis 1up, with Nate Jackson and Eli Cookman earning draws with their opponents, to allow Noosa to escape with a point, keeping them in the running. Because only four teams are competing in Division 1, just the top two after the Noosa round on August 7, go through to the final. Noosa Springs take on Noosa and a draw will be enough to guarantee their place in the final, while the two Maroochy River teams clash in a contest that could have great bearing on the final makeup. In the final round of competition in Division 2, Noosa drew 2-2 with Maroochy River 4, setting up a repeat clash between the two teams in a semi-final at Noosa on August 7. Noosa finished second on seven points, with Maroochy River 4 third on six points. Cooper Liddell (3&1) and Amy Coates (1up) were the Noosa winners. Mt Coolum retained its position at the head of standings after a 3-1 win over Noosa Springs, while Maroochy River 3 stole a spot in the semi-final, beating Headland 3-1 after winning two of the matches on forfeit. Full details at sunshinecoastgolf.org No grey in Gary’s world Ask Cooroy’s Gary Menyweather about the exceptional 41 points he scored in a vets’ stableford competition last week and he’ll immediately tell you how unfair the handicapping system is to older golfers like him. Then ask him about his long career as a housing construction manager and he’ll tell you there’s too much emphasis on Australians owning their own home, and that home ownership should not be such a driver of the economy. And don’t even ask him about the pandemic. Gary’s a bit of an enigma, a man who marches to the beat of his own drum, and who sees things not in greys, but in stark black and white. A resident of Yandina, Gary has been a member at Cooroy for the past two or three years after being a long-time member of Nambour Golf Club. He would have joined Cooroy earlier but the golf club insisted on a joining fee, and Gary wasn’t having any of that. “Money was a bit tight in those days,” he explained. Now a well-worn 68 – Gary’s words – he’s now retired and says he loves playing at Cooroy, and enjoys walking the course. “That was one of the reasons I left Nambour,” he said. “The hills got a bit too much for me.” He enjoys golf – but more so for the company of his playing partners, the fresh air and the exercise, rather than the competition. “I think that’s why I scored so well on Wednesday,” he said. “I just had the right attitude and, you know, 40 NOOSA TODAY Friday, 8 July, 2022

Noosa Springs’ Division 1 junior team includes these three from last year’s champion squad (from left) Sunday Moore, Jasmine Lena and Coco Moore. I got the luck – a hit from under a tree that bounced onto the green, and three or four other lucky breaks. “You finish a round like that, score 41 points, then you ask yourself what you did different today from every other time you played. And you know what – I can’t answer that question.” Gary grew up in Brisbane’s inner western suburbs and started playing golf during his senior year at high school. “My dad played a bit – never to much of a standard – and I followed him, playing socially but never joining a club,” Gary said. “I actually played quite a bit of bowls, even pennants, in my late 20s.” It wasn’t until he relocated to the Sunshine Coast and joined Nambour that he took golf seriously, getting his handicap down to single figures. He served on the match committee at Nambour and the redevelopment committee, but quit when he thought it was becoming too political – ‘all talk and no real action.’ He’s been a member of Cooroy’s match committee, too, and is regular volunteer at the club’s Tuesday working bees. Great week for Noosa’s Maddie Despite a moderate first-round 81, Noosa’s Maddison Kelly rallied to become the bestperformed of a large Sunshine contingent at last week’s Queensland Junior Amateur Championship at Bargara, near Bundaberg. Maddie followed that disappointing opening round with scores of 75, 75 and 75 over the next three rounds to shoot a 72-hole total of 14-over-par 306 and finish 10th in an elite field of Australian junior golfers. Two girls from the Gold Coast – Surfers Paradise’s Harahi Nakatani (72, 69, 69, 72) and Southport’s Yuuki Takada (75, 70, 75, 70) – finished first and second. In the boys’ division, former Noosa junior Taj Egea overcame a disappointing first 36 holes to charge home with rounds of 66 and 68 to finish seventh. Taj, who moved to Brisbane with his dad Andrew, a former Noosa professional, now represents Brookwater Golf Club. Noosa’s Eli Cookman (81, 83) and Nathan Jackson (83, 84) failed to make the 36-hole cut. Close for Ryley, but no Tour card Noosa’s Ryley Martin played below his best to shoot rounds of 78, 74 and 73 and narrowly miss out on qualifying for this week’s Q-School Finals at Moonah Links in Victoria.

Martin, who plays and practises at Noosa Springs, was just outside the number required to join 29 lucky players into the final 72-hole qualifying tournament, where the top performers earn playing privileges on the Australasian Tour. Mt Coolum assistant pro T. J. King got through, shooting rounds of 73, 75 and 71. Never too old to teach Those attending Noosa’s special golf schools today and tomorrow will take particular heed of the advice delivered by veteran professional Terry Price who showed this week that he’s lost none of his ability. Price, twice a winner of the New Zealand Open and a former European Tour member, shot a magnificent eight-under-par 64 to win the Biloela Pro-Am last weekend. Now aged 62, Price was the oldest player in the field. He and Noosa’s head teaching pro Jimmy Douris will conduct the two-day training program, which comprises a junior golf school on Friday morning, a comprehensive multi-skill session for all levels in the afternoon, one-onone training with Price on Saturday morning and specialised training in the afternoon.

I’m sure you know how far your 7 iron goes and I’m also certain you know how far your 5 iron goes. But do you really know how far your driver goes? I’d guess probably not, because you just try to hit the ball as far as you possibly can. And that is where the problem lies. The reason you hit your 7 iron is because it flies a specific length and you achieve a high success rate as you swing accordingly. So to achieve more success with a driver, we all need to know just how far it goes. Avoid standing on the tee and trying to hit it to infinity and beyond. Develop a swing tempo for your driver that gives you a consistent and achievable length. In doing so, we’ll swing a lot easier and find the fairway more often. Good golfing.

Over 3000 native trees and shrubs are planted throughout the vast grounds, creating natural wildlife corridors for animals, along with purposefully placed nesting boxes. Some of these trees act as food trees for native species, such as the endangered glossy black cockatoo.

Happy times for all at Eumundi’s Craft Beer Festival The sun shone, the brews flowed, the music pumped and beer-lovers from far and wide converged for the 2022 Hinterland Craft Beer Festival, held at The Imperial Hotel Eumundi on Saturday 25 June. Imperial Hotel and Eumundi Brewery manager Paul Thomas said it was the best Hinterland Craft Beer Festival yet. “It’s a big wow from us with a terrific rollup of beer lovers in Eumundi for what was a truly great festival centred around quality local brews,” he said. “We couldn’t have asked for more magical weather for the festival, which saw a line-up of 10 local breweries, a gin bar, food trucks and an afternoon of fun-filled entertainment and live music.“ The festival showcased more than 80 beers from across the Sunshine Coast – crafted by the brewing teams at Heads of Noosa Brewing Co, Copperhead Brewery, Boiling Pot Brewing Co, Moffat Beach Brewing Co, Sunshine Brewery, Your Mates Brewing Co, Noosa Hinterland Brewing Co, Matso’s Brewery, Terella Brewing and of course, Eumundi Brewery.

Sweet ride to Olympics From children to seniors, beginners to pros, everyone is invited to join the fun and have a go at a free council community event in Caloundra on 23 July – a celebration to acknowledge exactly 10 years to go until the Brisbane 2032 Olympic and Paralympic Games open. Get on your bikes at Sugar Bag Road Mountain Bike Trails from 10am-3pm for an actionpacked day of demos, trails, Have A Go sessions and rubbing shoulders with world-class champions. Sunshine Coast Council Mayor Mark Jamieson said mountain biking would be an integral part of the 2032 Games and encouraged everyone to have a go at the 23 July event. “This is a pretty special milestone – 10 years to the day when Australia, Brisbane and the Sunshine Coast host the 2032 Olympic and Paralympic Games,” Mayor Jamieson said. “Our region is very excited about the opportunity to host the mountain bike event in 2032. “We have a great array of mountain bike facilities in our region including Sugar Bag Road and also up the road at a proposed venue for the 2032 competition at Parklands, which will be a great asset for our region for many years to come. “Who knows, on 23 July the next future Olympic or Paralympic athlete may be at this special event, but they’ll never know if they don’t have a go.” Athens Mountain Bike Olympian Lisa Mathison said she was first inspired by the sport at age 12. “I randomly picked up a copy of (US magazine) Mountain Bike Action while travelling in a remote part of Australia,” Ms Mathison said. “Cadel Evans was on the cover of that issue, winning NORBA XC races at the time. “I was amazed, not only that people were making a living out of something as cool as racing mountain bikes, but that an Australian was one of the best in the world. “The following year, my first at high school, I saw a local interschool MTB series advertised, raced some other young girls on my fully

“As a spectator this time I look forward to attending as many different events as possible – things I would otherwise never get the chance to witness in person.” 2032 Olympic and Paralympic Games PCG member Councillor Peter Cox encouraged the whole family to join in the fun. “There’s an introduction to mountain biking session, pumping and cornering activities, test your skill, experience the trails, bike shop displays and demos,” Cr Cox said. “And it’s not just for beginners – if you are an experienced rider, there will certainly be something for you as well. “Did I mention former world champion

Delicious roots and good weeds at the Garden Expo The 2022 Queensland Garden Expo will come alive with an array of unusual topics making an appearance on the program during the three-day event at the Nambour Showgrounds from 8-10 July. Gardening guru Kate Wall will be sharing her wealth of knowledge on how to repair gardens after severe weather events, how to make a positive impact to climate change and how to make pesto from unwanted plants. Ms Wall said many people don’t realise it, but an unkept, uncultivated backyard is often full of food, especially edible greens. “Weeds tend to be much maligned by gardeners, and indeed too much of our precious gardening time and energy seems to be devoted to pulling them out, spraying them or otherwise trying to rid our gardens of them,” Ms Wall said. “The key is to manage weeds in your garden in such a way that they are useful and don’t pose a threat to the wider environment. “For example, Sow Thistle, Plantain and Chickweed are all edible weeds and make a delicious addition to foods such as pesto.” Also sharing his love of gourmet edible plants at this year’s Queensland Garden Expo is Dr Kevin Redd, who grows a wide range of plants at his boutique nursery and demonstration gardens at the Sunshine Coast. “I’m passionate about harvesting and using these amazing culinary ingredients, and will be sharing some of my favourite recipes and techniques for cooking and enjoying the seasonal abundance,” Dr Redd said. “Over the duration of the weekend I’ll be covering everything from delicious roots and rhizomes and how to turn your garden superfoods like turmeric into a healthy gourmet feast and how you can grow, harvest and cook this incredible plant. “With our subtropical climate, we can produce ingredients for cuisines as diverse as Thai, Indonesian, Vietnamese, Pacific Is42 NOOSA TODAY Friday, 8 July, 2022

land and Indian/Sri Lankan, so we encourage people with any sized garden to try these wonderful plants and to make the most of using them at home. It’s often easier than you might think and many of these gourmet plants absolutely thrive here.” Expo-goers who have more of a sweet tooth will be buzzing when Dr Tim Heard takes to the stage to share his wealth of knowledge around native bees. “Australian native bees are diverse, abundant and keep the bush healthy. They also come to our farms and backyards to pollinate our food plants. We can help them do their mega important job by providing nest sites. We can even collect small amounts of exquisite native bee honey,” Dr Head said. “The journey of discovery into their world enriches our own lives, and I can’t wait to share this with everyone at the Expo.” The 2022 program features more than 100 free lectures and demonstrations across eight stages and covers everything from the latest gardening trends right through to optimising conditions to help attendees’ gardens thrive. Event manager Marion Beazley said the event had become a firm family favourite, particularly given children under 15 are free and the extensive kids program of activities on offer, including kids’ craft sessions, seed planting and the free playground with a giant slide, farm animal petting zoo, jumping pillow and merry-go-round. “We’re so excited to have crowd favourite Costa Georgiadis back this year, the kids are in a for a real treat with the nature walks and nature gallery art on Costa’s agenda as well as his Rocking the Compost activity that is always a highlight with young green thumbs who turn out in their masses,” Ms Beazley said.

In one of the final rides before the 2022 Tom Quilty, endurance horse riders made the most of nearperfect conditions at Widgee. ERLE LEVEY went along for the ride.

Ride on, Wunderful Widgee It was one of the final chances for endurance riders to compete before the Tom Quilty 2022 is held at Tooraweenah in New South Wales this weekend. And Wunderful Widgee lived up to its name in many ways. It was the second ride after a break of six years at the endurance club and the event was held in near-perfect conditions. Kim Moir of Widgee Endurance and Trail Riders Club said the number of participants was good, considering it was so close to the Quilty. As well as 40km and 80km events, there was a 20km ride as an educator - a chance to experience endurance riding. While the course through Widgee and Brooyar State Forests was challenging at times, due of the climbs through the ranges, the track was firm underfoot. This saw good completion rates in all events. The 4am start for the 80km event meant chilly conditions but cloud cover saw temperatures remain even throughout the day. The course had a lot of elevation, through forestry into some high country. Riders started out on the flat from the Widgee Showgrounds, and then began a climb to reach an elevation of 840m in the Widgee State Forest. The course undulated along the ridgetop, then crossed back over the main road and into the Brooyar Forestry. Riders traversed part of the high country again, then through rolling farmland to home base. The 80km event saw 42 entrants with a 92.6 percent completion. First in the heavyweight division was Arron Turnbull of Wyreema, riding Danic Park Mackenzie, from Ed Jones on Zara te and Angela Waldock riding Concord. Danic Park Mackenzie was awarded best conditioned horse for the division. Sarah Carroll was first in the middleweight division, riding My Name is Earl, with Fiona Fenech second on Sweet Honesty Molleeh (best conditioned), and Jo Barsby on Dumaresq Warrior in third place. Line honours went to Karen Winkel on Shardell Azeem, who won the lightweight division. Clare Fleming, from Gum Flat in NSW, was second on Flemingo Diego (best conditioned), and Miki Bell, third, riding Duray Spartakos. In the juniors, Gympie rider Tahlea Lochtenberg was first, on Matta Mia Kassanova, from Glenvale rider Mary Duncan on Flemingo Klaus (best conditioned), and Indra Hofstee riding Royal Rose Malibu. The success of the weekend was due to a lot of effort by a wide number of people. Having a great volunteer base makes it so much easier for officials. As well as the vets there were four volunteers for temperature, pulse and respiration (TPR) who helped all weekend. Volunteers were on the course to help with farm gates and traffic control at road crossings, as well as at the water stations every 10km. Good results from rockybar Regular Gympie region riders were well represented at the Rockybar Endurance Ride, held as a memorial ride for Australian Endurance Riders Association life member Erica Williams. Hosted by Eidsvold Endurance Riders Association, it was to honour the role she played in the sport since its inception in Australia and the first Tom Quilty 100-mile ride in 1966. Married to bush legend RM Williams, Erica was the first woman to win the Australian National Championship Quilty Gold Cup in 1975. This year’s event saw Renee Kelso on SB Defino and Jayd Sansucie on Bonnybrooke Waratah take out line honours as well as being equal first in the lightweight division. Aanja Hamelink on Stirling’s Saffron was fourth, and winner of best conditioned horse in the division. Emma Dimech on Yarramine Regal and Sue Sutcliffe riding El Crown Prince were equal fifth

Aussie Rules marks 50th By Julian Pitts No football was played by anyone representing the Rococo Noosa Tigers last weekend due to completion byes and the school holidays. Thought it’s not a bad time to focus on a very important Sunshine Coast Football event coming up on Friday 22 July. Hosted by the Alex Surf club’s Bluff bar from 11am will see the 50th year celebrations of the Sunny Coast Aussie Rules Football, 32 new inductees into the hall of fame and culminating in the selection of the best team of the last 50 years (the only criteria being that you must have played/ coached at least 75 senior games). It is the third hall of fame celebration since its introduction in 2010 and as the Noosa delegate to these meetings, I can inform all readers that the Noosa Tigers and some outstanding individuals will be celebrated throughout the day. Already Garry Wallace, Brett Duke, Nathan Winter and Caleb Isles have been successful in their induction applications after being just outstanding servants to the game as footballers. All four, of course, senior premiership players for the Noosa Tigers. Rob Purvis will also be recognised for his on going work with football after stints as coach, administrator and, more recently, a big reason behind the success of our Noosa Tigers inclusion team. Three of the great names of Sunshine Coast Footy will be elevated to legend status and all three have made unbelievable contributions to the Noosa Tigers Football Club. Very exciting! And of course there is the team of the half century where the greatest ever Noosa Tigers will find themselves vying for what can only be

described as an incredible honour. The early names of Bones, Murray, Buster, Bunney and Nev White have put their hands up alongside legendary Tigers coach John Townsend whose playing record across all grades exceeds his peers. Andrew Ford, Aaron Jaques, Damian Hahn and Brett Duke are the ones that dominated the ‘90s and early 2000s for the Tigers whilst experience Coach Brett Maloney (coached both Noosa and Maroochydore) has been nominated as one that may take the coach of the 50-year team. And not to mention the name Mark Vagg would be ridiculous. The six time best and fairest winner (three at both Maroochydore and Noosa) will certainly be one of the first magnets moved onto the board. Then come the modern day greats of our club with supreme forward Matt Hicks, gun on baller Lucas Mathews and the running machine Caleb Isles, all deservedly nominated for spots. Present guns Jai Fitzpatrick and the ever consistent skipper Aaron Laskey are right in the hunt also for a guernsey in what will be an outstanding final team. And of course not to forget our dual premiership coach Wayne Fletcher who has every right to put up his hand to grab the coaching gig after a brilliant record at Weyba Rd.

Dolphins leap up the ladder in Indigenous round Following a stirring Welcome to Country and the haunting notes of the didgeridoo to open the Noosa Indigenous round, the Ray White Noosa Dolphins took up where they left off last week putting on a dominant display against Wynnum. The 63-15 victory has kept the fourthplaced Noosa side in reach of third position on the A Grade table with Caloundra just four points ahead and Maroochydore six points away in second place. With a 40 point first half the pick of the two halves, coach Matt Buckland pointed to the great front foot ball provided by the hard working Dolphins forward pack allowing the improving backline combinations to put together a number of team tries. “The forwards worked extremely hard in that first half and our backs were the beneficiaries of the space that provided. Even in the wet conditions, they showed the growing confidence the past couple of weeks has provided,“ Buckland said. Despite the scoreline, the Dolphins know they have work to do if they hope to be a threat in the final series. ‘We are definitely on the improve and I know our guys have the ability to go a lot further and it is pleasing to see the work being put in is achieving results’ Buckland said. ‘This weekend we are at home again and in hopefully better conditions against Caboolture, a team that despite their placing on the ladder are a real threat if we allow ourselves any complacency’. The Dolphins reserves also continued the winning streak with a 27-20 victory over Wynnum. Sitting third on the ladder, the win was even more special in that Wynnum currently hold second position. The Dolphins got out to a 12-0 lead after 20 minutes but again, poor discipline and a drop in intensity, saw the well drilled opposition hit back to go into the half time break ahead 14-12. With the half time message of intensity and discipline ringing in their ears, the Dolphins lifted to take the match 27-20. “It was very pleasing the way the team were able to wres44 NOOSA TODAY Friday, 8 July, 2022

Pirates went down to the Sharks in the main game and reserve grade.

U18s will go up against Nambour this weekend.

Pirates Women lost 18-4 against the Sharks last Saturday.

Pirates’ charity weekend Rugby League On Saturday Noosa Pirates were again host to a home game. This time they took to the muddy field to do battle against the visiting Caloundra Sharks. In early games Pirates Reserve grade went down, 30-16, and the women also lost, 18-4. However, the U18s came home winners, 22-0. Following this, the Pirates Masters playing another visiting team, Beachmere, came out on top 24-4. At 6pm the main game against Caloundra Sharks kicked off on a field that can only be described as a centre field pool. It was a bad start for Pirates when, in only three minutes a dropped ball saw the Sharks score a try near the post which they converted. Sharks 6 Pirates 0. Despite the conditions ball handling was much better than expected, with both teams trying to spread their attack out wide. However, in 23 minutes, with Pirates starting to move their attack more centre field, their barging forward pack broke through to score a converted try, making it six all. Then, with the Sharks moving up with their back line, a bad lapse in defense saw Caloundra run through from 15m out to score near the posts. Sharks 12 Pirates 6. Then in quick succession Caloundra scored again to make it 18-6. With just minutes to go before half time Pirates scored an unconverted try, to go to the sheds Sharks 18, Pirates 10. Both teams held the ball better than could be expected as the field became a real mud bath, particularly in center field. But some erratic defense from Pirates, gave Caloundra the half time advantage. Pirates were unlucky when immediately in the second half Pirates scored, only to have it declared a forward pass. However, Pirates made amends when following up quickly on a short kick, they scored and converted to make it 18-16. Then with a sweeping run from Pirates back line, they scored out wide but the conversion missed to give the Pirates a 20-18 lead. By then conditions were very heavy which saw both teams involved in tight rucking. From a loose ball 10 yards out, Sharks gained possession and scored, but their kick went wide. Sharks 22 Pirates 20. With 10 minutes to go it was anybody’s game. Sharks tried to close it up tight but a scrum 10m out gave the Pirates a chance to take the game but some solid defence again saw Sharks repeatedly shut down Pirates attack. On the final whistle, it stood at Sharks 22 Pirates 20. This weekend for Pirates will be busy. They will host the Indigenous Round 12 QRL Naidoc Week, an annual event. Also, they will be working in support of Womenkind, an organisation that supports women personally and professionally. The program, which will kick off at noon will consist of the following: U18s, Women’s, and Division 1 vs Nambour, Division 2A vs Stanley Rivers and Division 2B vs Yandina. The main game of Pirates Division 1 vs Nambour will kick off at 6pm. Also with Pirates supporting two worthy causes it is hoped that this plus a great afternoon of footy at its best will pull a big crowd.

It was a muddy field on Saturday when Pirates went up against Caloundra Sharks. At the completion of the final match, the club will be conducting an Indigenous charity jersey auction in the clubhouse, to help raise funds for these worthy causes. These jerseys are really something to cherish and the opportunity to obtain one should not be missed. Surf Lifesaving During the winter months surf lifesaving iron woman Lana Rogers is working on her program in preparation for next seasons Nutri Grain Iron Woman. All being well, it is planned to commence in December, but with Covid being what it is, who knows? Her coach Sharlene Kelly said: ‘’Lana is in her sixth week and all is going well. Also, we have a new addition to the team, a young girl named Grace Otto. Last season she won the Nutri Grain Next Generation junior- version of the senior event. This win gives her automatic qualification into this season’s Iron Woman Series. So, by all indications next season will be very busy.” The Nutri Grain program for this season will see two rounds at the Sunshine Coast, two rounds at Manly in Sydney, with the last two rounds on the Gold Coast. At present Sharlene is over the moon. “Surf Life Saving has been very proactive in encouraging women in the lifesaving movement, and in particular female coachers. As a result of this I have been appointed a national coaching advisor. The SLSA has an advisory committee covering all aspects of surf sports. This is something that I am really looking forward to, something I am definitely going to enjoy,” she said. For those of us in her Noosa support group it, has not come as a surprise. Considering her success as a coach, and the respect that she commands from fellow coaches on the various beaches along the eastern coast, plus her friendly outgoing personality, her appointment is definitely well earned. Once again it has come to the attention of

Life of Brine Phil Jarratt - philjarratt.com

The Australian team at the Pacific Games, 1939. Duke Kahanomoku front left, and if you look closely you’ll see a x on the pillar above Blue in the back.

Blue and Nancy on their wedding day, 1940.

Blue’s Hawaiian dream I’m currently working on a project that has cast me back into the world of Australian surfing heroes of yesteryear, from a decade ago to a century ago, from all but forgotten to always remembered. I thought I’d share with you some of the lesser known ones that I still remember over the next couple of winter weeks. Blue Russell By the 1930s there was a new generation of Australian surfers who had only been babies (or not even born) when the great Duke Kahanamoku gave his 1915 surfing demonstrations here. Perhaps the best of them was a handsome, ginger-haired fellow named Reginald Keightley Blue Russell, who divided his time between his mother’s apartment at Sydney’s Elizabeth Bay and the family weekender at Palm Beach, where he turned a downstairs work room into a shaping bay and began producing finelycrafted hollow boards. Born in Sydney in 1914, Blue Russell first came to attention in the late 1920s when he borrowed redwoods from the clubhouse and taught himself to stunt-ride. A decade later Blue had developed into a strong, athletic young man, an outgoing, fun-loving fellow with a shock of red hair and a face full of freckles. Susceptible to sunburn, he was never seen in the surf without his felt sunhat tied under his chin, and after he started riding hollow boards, he pioneered the knee-paddling position and developed Australia’s first set of board bumps. The Sydney Morning Herald’s social column, Heard Here and There, noted: “Quite the quaintest Palm Beach sight is that of Blue Russell speeding through the waves on his special surf-board, complete with a battered green felt hat clinging to his red hair.” Blue was always in the social pages but he also had a serious side, particularly concerning building and riding surfboards, either for riding waves or paddling speed machines. He was on a speed machine one day in January 1938 when he rescued 15 swimmers from treacherous seas at Palm Beach. In January 1939 the Honolulu Star-Bulletin newspaper issued a challenge to its counterpart in Sydney, the Daily Telegraph, to send a team of surfboard riders to compete against their own. The SLSA and the Telegraph immediately accepted. In fact the Pacific Games concept eventually encompassed a broad range of swimming and surfing skills over almost a fortnight of competition. In April, the final paddling selection trials were held at Narrabeen Lakes, with Blue Russell from Palm Beach, Lou Morath 46 NOOSA TODAY Friday, 8 July, 2022

Blue’s last blast at surfing was on a hot curl at Wakiki, seen here in action. (Manly-Balmoral) and Dick Chapple (North Bondi) chosen as the three boardriders in the 22-strong team. The team left Sydney on 23 June on the SS Monterey, arriving in Honolulu on 5 July, with four days to train before the event. During the voyage Blue was photographed doing his daily paddle training in the ship’s pool, the back of his board tied to a wall as he paddled against it. When they settled into the Waikiki lifestyle, however, Blue and his team-mates found there were many distractions. Writing a few years later, Hollywood columnist Viola McDonald noted: “Ginger Rogers gave me a special message yesterday for the Australian surf team which she met in Honolulu three years ago, taking part in the Pacific Surf Games of July, 1939. ‘We met on the beach, and they took me surfing, swimming, and boating,’ Ginger reminisced. “Never in my life have I met such charming and polite young men.’” In town barely five minutes, our boys had

hooked up with the hottest pinup girl in the world. But Blue was only warming up. He already had his eye on a beautiful young heiress who was shacked up in the Royal Hawaiian Hotel while the family luxury yacht sat on a mooring at the Ala Wai Harbour. The Pacific Games got underway on Sunday 9 July with more than 15,000 people lining the beach at Makapuu to watch belt racing, surfboat and surfboard riding exhibitions. From then on the Australians were feted and mobbed wherever they appeared. After several more carnivals and swim meets around the island of Oahu, the Games concluded with an Australian-style surf carnival on Waikiki Beach which had to be abandoned when thousands of spectators mobbed the competitors on the narrow beach. Although he had won only one individual event (and then only after the disqualification of the Hawaiian who was first across the line), Blue Russell’s overall results were enough for

Pictures: SUPPLIED him to be declared the winner of the surfboard division, thus becoming Australia’s first international surfboard riding champion. But when the rest of the team sailed for home, Blue stayed on, having become romantically involved with the young woman at the Royal Hawaiian. The object of Blue’s undivided attention was 18-year-old Nancy Heinz, a granddaughter of the late H.J. Heinz, one of America’s leading industrialists of the 19th century whose 57 different varieties of beans had become one of the best-known food brands in the world. Blue signed on as crew on the Heinz yacht and back in Los Angeles the couple announced their engagement. Soon they had two young children and Blue had a flourishing career running his own gramophone recording company. Although Blue’s surfing days were numbered, he is said to have become adept at riding the new hot curl solid board at Waikiki on visits in 1940 and 1941.

Now they have joined forces to establish Walker and Rigby, a real estate agency focused on Noosa’s eastern beaches - from Sunshine Beach to Peregian Beach and Coolum, taking in Peregian Springs and Peregian Breeze. Sam started with Dowling Neylan 10 years ago and has spent the past seven with Century 21 Conolly Hay. James, on the other hand, has a career in development with brother Alex at Altum.

He said that with beautiful presentation and low maintenance, it was ideal for a busy family, a holiday getaway or to work from home. It has an easy flow on entry level that accommodates three bedrooms and two living areas plus study at the front. “The great thing is the amount of natural light,’’ Nic said, “with high ceilings and bamboo flooring. “The swimming pool and living area are to the north. “This is especially beneficial in these winter months.’’ The lounge area’s feature wall is highlighted by a bio ethanol fireplace surrounded by stunning sandstone and custom-cabinetry extending either side.

A five-bedroom, four-bathroom, three-car house with pool at 14 Coral Tree Ave, Noosa Heads, goes to auction Saturday, July 23, at 11am. 287177 The four-bedroom, two-bathroom, two-car house with pool at 4 Sandpiper Pl will go to the market at 12pm on Saturday, July 16. Interest to date has been mainly local, James said, but also Sydney and Melbourne, Noosa and Brisbane. “Some are looking at comparative sales, the price of land and cost of building. “They are then weighing up the benefits of buying something already built.’’ The appeal of the home is the size, especially the bedrooms, and the fact there are three living areas. It is a flat block which makes it particularly suitable for a family. The pool is of a good size and there is a fire pit area. There is a home automation system, and a very functional, practical lay-out. In a cul-de-sac location close to schools, most interested buyers and tending to be those with school-age families, Sam said. There is good natural light in the tiled open-plan living spaces, with a home officestudy-media room also on this level. A well-appointed, galley-style kitchen includes smeg appliances, Caesarstone bench tops, white-tiled splashbacks, softclose cabinetry, and extra butler’s kitchen. This then flows on to a sun-drenched family-orientated lounge and dining area. Upstairs reveals another sitting area, along with three large bedrooms - all with built-in robes - and the main bathroom featuring large bath, level-access shower and separate toilet. The main bedroom suite comes high

ceiling, walk-in robe and ensuite featuring double vanities and rain shower. Outside, there is a covered dining area, grassed space, a fire pit and saltwater pool. The views range from Mt Coolum and the Arcoona Bushland Conservation Reserve, to the hinterland ranges including Cooroy Mountain. It’s a cracking property and it will be hard to find views like it. Kess Prior at Hinternoosa is understandably excited about a new listing she has at 127 Black Mountain Range Rd, Black Mountain. The five-bedroom, four-bathroom house and studio on 10.10ha comes with pool, shed, and a eucalyptus plantation. For sale at offers over $2.750m, the house has had a terrific updating, Kess said. “There is so much going for it. “It has a unique and special feel.’’ Situated high on the ridge and capturing breathtaking views, the house is set well back from the road on the undulating 10.10ha. The single-level, steel-frame home was extensively renovated and extended in 2005. Inclusions encompass insulation, ducted air-conditioning, ceiling fans and a choice of indoor and outdoor living and entertaining spaces.

The entertainer’s kitchen features gas cooking and a large pantry. The massive main bedroom suite takes in the mountain views and boasts builtin robes as well as a stylish ensuite with double vanity, shower and spa bath. Two further bedrooms feature built-in robes, one of which also has an ensuite, while the fourth bedroom would also work as a study or home office. A separate, council-approved and air-conditioned one-bedroom studio with ensuite bathroom has its own private deck. A highlight of the property is the resortstyle pool area, surrounded by travertine tiles, craftsman-laid stone retaining walls and lush landscaped gardens.

ON THE COVER

SERENE BEAUTY, COASTAL LUXE HEART THROB AMPLIFIED by an in-vogue chic aesthetic, a restrained neutral palette, plus an easy indoors-outdoors engagement underpinned by practicality, all form the perfect snapshot of a residence that nurtures and energises at the same time. And to top it off what about relishing the benefits of a selfcontained apartment? Come inside, the serenity is truly palpable. Note how light, the sort that invites itself in the moment you open the timber-framed glass statement doors, shadow dances over the honey-hued bamboo flooring, throughout the highceilinged spaces. They are specifically designed for the modern family for every need, reason and season. Yes, it is all about being spoilt for choice when it comes to those living spaces and each one evokes a sense of euphoria. With massive picture windows and banks of glass sliders seemingly disappearing on two sides of the expansive open plan living area, there is a smooth indoor/ outdoor connectivity on the northerly side to the timber terrace, pool and spa with a backdrop of brilliant blue mosaic tiles. The scene cultivates an immediate sunny state of mind, and of course alfresco entertaining and loads of fun. Taking centre-stage indoors is undoubtedly the lounge area’s feature wall with a Brasa bio ethanol fireplace, surrounded by stunning sandstone and custom-cabinetry extending either side of the wall. A nearby media room is currently also a much-loved hang-out space during the footy season, while the hub of all the action is the on-trend kitchen with a window-looking-out-to-the-greenery doubling as a splashback. Stone tops the benches including the island/breakfast bar and every cook, even one channelling Jamie Oliver will appreciate the high-end appliances and adjacent scullery. Along the hallway is a generous master suite, with sliders out to the pool and spa deck, also a wall of robes along the entry into the travertine-tiled ensuite. In the east wing, two queen-size bedrooms look over the back garden out to a bank of native trees. An additional bedroom on this level has a custom desk, and the large family-size bathroom features travertine,

a frameless shower with drencher and an oval bath. Downstairs is like finding a pot of gold - the rare commodity of income-producing potential. The self-contained two-bedroom apartment, (yes two bedrooms), or lavish guest suite, has an exclusive access via the third garage and pathway along the side or through a front entry gate. Also, it can be locked off at the foot of the stairs. There is an open plan living/dining area opening to a wide covered timber deck and minimal maintenance garden. The main bedroom has an ensuite, and the second bedroom has a shower room. The kitchenette/bar with glass splashback extends along one wall and appliances include an integrated dishwasher. “This superbly designed contemporary residence has been built to perfection by incorporating the core fundamentals of a truly functional family home,” says Tom Offermann Real Estate agent Peter TeWhata, who is taking the property to auction on Saturday 23 July 2020. “The location is also first class. It is near the cosmopolitan happening-heart of Noosa Heads, a short walk to Noosa Junction’s cool bars, restaurants and cafes, cinema complex, supermarkets, boutiques, and Pinaroo Park is a fave for four-footers. Transport links include private and public schools, sporting clubs, the Noosa Aquatic Centre also the eastern beaches such as Sunshine and Peregian.” Facts & Features: Land Size: 567m2 House Size: 357m2 Pool: 2mx6m + spa; all functions incl. gas spa heating & lights controlled by App; mosaic-tiled feature wall About: honey-hued bamboo flooring; travertine bathrooms; Brasa bio ethanol fireplace with sandstone feature surround; auto awning from pool terrace; ducted/zoned aircon + fans; 3 car garage with workshop space; 6 bedrooms – 4 upstairs incl. master with built-in robe wall, ensuite & access to pool & spa terrace, 2 with built-in robes & family bathroom with bathtub, additional bedroom with office setup; see below for downstairs.

HOME FOCUS

FIVE-STARS ON HILTON ESPLANADE PICTURE the brilliant locale of the much coveted 5-star Hilton Esplanade, with a bright white 2-level river house-style design triumph on the doorstep, nestled amongst the serenity and the pristine nature of the Noosa River foreshore, yet close to the buzz and sophistication of Hastings Street. Opening the front gate into the pretty-asa-picture all year-round garden, and the sunsplashed lustrous pool of this privileged address, immediately evokes elation. Step onto the north-facing wide covered terrace and note how it coalesces naturally with the beauty of the park-like foreshore, and unimpeded views beyond. Similarly, the vast indoor living spaces which incorporate timeless and elegant albeit casual design cues, with lofty shiplap ceilings, endless lime-washedlook plank tiles, disappearing doors and banks of plantation shutters, also taking inside to out in a seamless fashion, thus broadening entertaining decisions in the heart of the residence, whatever the reason or season. With such a luxe galley-style custombuilt kitchen, featuring white stone-topped cabinetry, including island/breakfast bar, statement beaten metal pendants, and the latest high-end AEG appliances, those

with a penchant for culinary creations, will be totally at home. Storage solutions are aplenty also in the walk-in pantry, while tech storage is under the stairs. In west wing, along a hallway which is wide like all doorways, and specifically designed to be wheelchair friendly, are two queen-size bedrooms with built-in robes, also a laundry with access to the west-side pathway. A powder room and a mocha-hued subway tiled bathroom are opposite. When it comes to lifestyle and design this residence hits the high notes between spectacular and practical including dreamtime. Upstairs the oversize king master suite, gabled ceiling, ensuite with double shower and vanities, sitting room and of-so-wide terrace, with those magical northerly river views, visible whether in bed or bubbling away the blues in the free-standing bathtub. Fashionistas will adore the big walk-in wardrobe, and to save popping downstairs for a tea, coffee or sunset bubbles, arguments are settled forever, as there’s a very thoughtful addition of a hideaway kitchenette in a dedicated leisure/office area. “This distinctively year-round cool, contemporary river house is unlike anything else,” enthuse Tom Offermann Real Estate agents Mal Cox and Peter TeWhata who

have slated the property for auction on Saturday 30 July 2022. “The much sought-after location is a fishing rod-length or two from the Noosa River where you canpicnic, swim, fish from a jetty, kayak, paddle board or go boating. Walk to Gympie Terrace with its bevy of cafes, bars and boutiques, Noosa Marina, Noosa Library, and the Noosa Leisure Centre.
