“Lucky she had long pants on, and it didn’t break the skin, but it caused soft tissue damage, it’s a compression injury and you can actually see the bite. “Then the dog went right back to the horse and latched on to the horse’s nose and as it let go it grabbed it’s stomach. The most significant injuries were all to Dash’s face. “I tried to get closer to help but the dog kept dragging the horse away and I couldn’t get to her.” Mr Sutton said the attack only lasted 30 or 40 seconds “but seemed much longer”. “Chelsea was absolutely hysterical as it was happening,” he told The Weekly. “The dog chased the horse into the dune and latched on to his nostril and belly. “I got Heath off the horse so I could go after Dash; Heath is seven and he’s pretty shaken up.” Cabarita Beach Pony Club caretaker, Isabel Star, said she knew something had happened when she saw a lady running towards the gate at the club grounds. “Another camper and I jumped in the car and caught up to the woman at the junction of Round Mountain Road and Tweed Coast Road,” Ms Star said. “She said that her husband had called and there had been an incident on the beach, and I told her to call the police. “We met the father on the beach and then I tracked the horse through the scrub, it ended up at the bridge at Hastings and the other lady caught it and brought it back. “The young girl and I headed to the beach and caught up to the father and then I saw the dog and it was crouched down ready to attack the father’s horse and then it launched itself at us. “It was oblivious to the humans; it was just after the horse.” Mr Sutton said he was lucky to get hold of the dog’s leash “but it was a struggle to stop him from grabbing the horse”. “The owners were there - my partner and I handed the dog to the police, he was continually trying to attack my horse,” Mr Sutton said. “I think it was some kind of staffy pitbull cross. “The person handling the dog on the beach was the mother of the owner who is quite young. The mum called her daughter (the owner) and the owner arrived and was actually lying on the dog saying she didn’t want the dog put down. “The father said it was a rescue dog, but I said the background didn’t interest me, all that interested me was what it had done. “I tried to stay calm and I said to them that I hoped when they calmed down and realised it had attacked two horses and an eleven-year-old girl they could

make the right decision without needing to be told. “The last interaction was the mother saying, ‘you probably don’t think it’s worth anything but I’m really sorry about what happened today’.” Mr Sutton said police told him they had to hand the dog back to the owner. The ranger arrived later and arranged for Greg Baldwin, a Murwillumbah vet, to tend to the injured animal. “He was fantastic, Mr Sutton said. “I had to assist for three hours when he was putting stitches in Dash’s face; there was a massive tear that goes right into his nostril that went through to the palate. “He suggested the nerve damage on Dash’s face will lead to permanent paralysis. “We are trying to keep him contained so he doesn’t bust out all the stitches and staples.” Mr Sutton said Dash had won multiple state and national titles but “even the injuries would put an end to his show career”. “It would cost $20,000 to replace him,” he said. “Chelsea has massive aspirations to move to the US and compete and I believe she can do it but now we don’t know if she will have the confidence to compete at that level. “She said last night that she felt like she almost got killed on the beach. “For an 11-year-old to say, that was terrible and we have already arranged for her to see a counsellor. “For the last few nights she has needed her mum to sit with her to go to sleep. “I’ve seen some horrible things but standing there watching that happen to my children, I’m not ashamed to admit I shed a few tears that afternoon as well. “We hope council will impose maximum penalties, so the owners are held accountable and they do the right thing.”

By Jo Kennett A FAMILY has been left devastated after a savage dog attack that occured at Cabarita Beach on Thursday, January 2, with a prize show horse and a young girl injured. The father of the young girl, Scott Sutton from Widgee in Qld, said his daughter Chelsea had been left traumatised by the event and Dash, the former national champion show horse, had suffered such severe injuries he was unlikely to compete again. Mr Sutton said the family was distressed that the dog had been returned to its owner. “I’m just ropable these people didn’t have the dog seized,” he said. “One, it could happen again and two, they could make it disappear. “Just take it to a friend’s place which is why they are seized in Qld, so those things can’t happen.” The family arrived at the Cabarita Beach Pony Club the day before the attack, after eleven-year-old Chelsea and Dash had competed in the National Barrel Racing Horse Association of Australia Summer Series and placed second. The next day Chelsea and her younger brother Heath rode to the beach with their father accompanying them on foot. The children were on the horses in the water when Mr Sutton said he saw the dog coming “from way up the beach”. “I saw it running from about 500 metres away,” he said. “It ran straight past me and actually went into the water to get the horse. “I was worried that Chelsea could be pinned under the water and yelled out to her to get out of the water. “The dog latched on to the horse’s nose and the horse had its head down and was trying to get away. “Chelsea came off over the horse’s neck and landed near the dog and it bit her twice on the thigh and calf.

The end of our bus route

I read a notice at a bus stop at The Quarterdeck, Tweed Heads, which states: “Bus service improvements and changes in the Tweed” while another says “Bus stop closed”. I don’t wish to be too nasty in my comment, but whoever is responsible for the revised bus routes is definitely in need of counselling and is a bottle or two short of a six pack. The Endless Summer area of Tweed comprising The Quarterdeck, The Mainbrace, The Anchorage, The Bowsprit and several other streets is home to thousands of people of all ages including the elderly and schoolchildren who have enjoyed the privilege of travelling by Surfside Buses for many years. The newly designed bus route eliminating The Quarterdeck means that customers now have to walk up to one kilometre to the closest bus stops in Ducat Street and Kennedy Drive, hardly what is as the promotion details informs us of “better connections” and “a whole lot easier” Funny though that not in service buses continue to use The Quarterdeck all day long. I would like to suggest that the route designer takes a grip and thinks practically about serving the community. James Williams, Tweed Heads

No bus for us

What a joke the new bus routes are. Living on Terranora Road, Bungalora, we are yet to receive a bus service. We are aged pensioners and will soon be needing assistance with public transport. We have never had a bus stop at Bungalora. Now, with woeful management, 605 will only stop once at the Terranora shops. That totals one stop from Tumbulgum to Tweed City. Who created this disgraceful timetable? Shame on anyone who okayed this plan. Catherine Jamieson, Bungalora

Bus routes neglect elderly

In the week before Christmas I took the bus from Murwillumbah

to Tweed Heads, wanting to avoid all that car traffic. I was horrified and annoyed to find that now the Murwillumbah bus only goes to the Tweed City base and we all had to change to another bus to go further and same again on the way home. The buses to Kingscliff, Pottsville etc are not cut back in this way, so why do it to the ageing population in Murwillumbah? Hoping that if we all complain to the Transport Department, we may get that extra funding for buses all the way. Barbara Waters, Murwillumbah

New bus routes a mess

I have to agree with Stan Loeber on the total mess the new bus timetables and routes are. Funny how they started at Christmas and when the local member is on holidays. I’ll be lining up to complain when they open again so I hope there’s a lot more there to voice their complaints. I use the buses often as I’m without a car at the moment but before that I have been using them for a fair few years. The numbers are definitely down on them since the changes. Jayson Jones, Tweed Heads

Why weren’t we told about paid parking?

I think it outrageous that now, after construction has begun and assurances given at the outset by our elected State Member Geoff Provest, that paid parking should even be a topic of discussion. When all the parking problems experienced by the regional hospitals quoted in your December 26th article, Orange, Dubbo, Port Macquarie, Coffs Harbour Wollongong, Shoalhaven, Wagga Wagga and others are well known and a source of irritation to their local communities, why in the world would this issue not be addressed and catered for, as promised by Mr Provest, in the planning stage of this new hospital? It is traumatic enough for families to be visiting sick or dying relatives over a period of time, in some cases months, to then force them to pay for the privilege, or worse still to have to find a parking space hundreds of metres away, in a residential street and then walk in to visit their loved ones. The site was supposedly chosen for its size and ability to meet the growing demands for expansion in line with the local area population growth. A cynical person could theorise that the lack of provision of such an essential amenity as parking was a purposeful omission on behalf of the planners to ensure that, over time, they recuperate a proportion of the construction costs. Honour your promise Geoff Provest and get it right for the

community and the people who supported you and your party. Phillip Newton, Kingscliff

Hospital staff parking

If parking is not free we will have to have restricted parking hours along the 601 and 603 routes. That’s where staff and visitors will park and catch the bus to the hospital. Ros Gouldthorpe, Kingscliff

Thanks for help after hit and run

After my five-year-old daughter and I were involved in a hit and run on Xmas Eve, I just want to thank all of the strangers and emergency personnel who helped at the scene. I especially want to thank the other drivers who drove slowly and carefully around us, during a very busy time of the year. To the ladies that held my daughter and myself, to the strangers that redirected traffic without question. The amazing strangers that moved my car and cleaned the debris. It is you who make this town great. You have shown my daughter and myself what it means to live in a caring community. Thank you. If anyone has information or witnessed a car crash on the intersection of Riverview and Condong Street at 5.15pm on December 24 and or activity on the corner of William Street and Byangum Road (bmx park) please contact the police. Lucy Robertson, Murwillumbah

Yellow? Let it mellow

I have noted that with our level 2 water restrictions Council is urging people to save water by not flushing the toilet each time we urinate - the old adage of ‘if it is yellow, let it mellow’. We also have another really viable option to save water and fertilise our gardens at the same time. Urine is chock full of nitrogen, potassium and phosphorous, which are the nutrients plants need to thrive – and the main ingredients in common mineral fertilisers. If you saved some or your fresh urine in a bucket each day, diluted it with water, then used it on your garden – your garden would say thank you. I have a bucket at night for collection of urine, and each day it is diluted to enrich my garden. Periodically I also save old urine in a big lidded bucket – as a quick and efficient way of despatching cane toads. I collected 38 cane toads a few nights ago and the days-old urine, high in ammonia, dealt with the cane toads in around 10 seconds. Let us all make an effort and save some of the valuable, potable (drinking) water that we currently use to flush our toilets. Gayle Russell, Nunderi

Fireworks too dangerous

With this beautiful sunrise on Kingy beach on New Year’s morning (pictured above), I wondered at the stupidity of some of my fellow humans who crassly lit fireworks. While it seems our whole country burns, we have escaped it all, apart from some smoke, and then not all the time. We are so very lucky here, why risk bringing the flames to us with fireworks. The argument that it’s for the kids is specious, it only shows them that it doesn’t matter what happens elsewhere it’s our right to do what we want when we want. Surely it would have been more informative for kids to forego the risk of setting Kingscliff alight, and to get them up early to see the beauty and wonder of the sun emerging from the sea at dawn. Wishing everyone a peaceful, safe and happy 2020. Rob Cornford, Kingscliff

Still not enough data on water extraction impacts

The article in the December 26 TVW entitled “Councillor defends commercial water extractors” was confused, was just plain wrong, and needs correction. The suggestion that the 0.008% take by water miners as being such a small amount of the available groundwater becomes totally irrelevant by virtue of the fact that there is potential for miners to cause adverse local impacts to others who use groundwater for irrigation or domestic use or to groundwater dependent ecosystems (see from page 73 of the Chief Scientist and Engineer’s final report). None of these impacts can be predicted without extensive field work over a long period of time, so the 0.008% simply doesn’t matter. To say that there is “no connection between groundwater and drying creeks or waterways” misrepresents the findings of the report. Below is just one of many parts of the report which suggests the lack of field data

to be confident there are no local adverse impacts caused by water mining. “Robust local assessment of potential connectivity between aquifer and overlying shallow groundwater and surface water should form part of pump tests and feature in hydrogeological reports. This is important, as observed in Alstonville, where deeper aquifers are not necessarily confined and may have connections to surface systems or shallower aquifers. It is important to increase understanding of how confined the aquifer is, as assessment criteria of allowable drawdown differs between confined and unconfined systems. In addition, field verification is an important part of the process. (Executive Summary, page vii)”. Last year Council voted to request that the NSW Minister for Water, Melinda Pavey, suspend water miner’s licences until the drought breaks. Given that there may well be connections between groundwater and surface water (see above), the request is quite a conservative one and should have been supported by all Councillors. If the minister acquiesces and does suspend licences, it seems very unlikely that the Council would be liable for any compensation to the miners. If the State Government gave the order, it would be their responsibility. The Chief Scientist and Engineer’s report has most likely cost a lot of taxpayer’s money to confirm what the Tweed Water Alliance has been saying for years now, that there is simply not enough data available to be confident that each of the water mines have no adverse local impacts.

Army of volunteers dig deep for fire victims

By Jonathon Howard AN ARMY of big-hearted Tweed Shire residents and businesses have recently banded together to answer the call for help from South Coast residents struggling through a continuing bushfire crisis. Among them are Shell Chinderah Bay owners Paula and Tony Nash, alongside Church of Christ Senior Minister John Latta, who are working with dozens of local volunteers at Tweed Super Sports in Chinderah. The centre will remain open for donations until 4pm on Friday, January 10, with non-perishable food and only brand-new items welcomed. Snr Minister Latta opened the church-owned Tweed Super Sports as a donation drop-off location and has seen tonnes of goods donated. “We did the same thing after the 2017 Tweed flood,” he said. “ I j u s t wa n t t o t h a n k t h e community for rallying again to support those in need. “Events like these really do bring out the best in people and it shows that people truly want to help those in need.” Mrs Nash said they had already received about three B-Double loads of donations by Monday, January 6, which will be kindly trucked south by C&S Neave Transport. “It’s been an amazing response,” Mrs Nash said.

“We’ve been overwhelmed by the generosity of locals coming to the aid of those in need.” Mrs Nash also wanted to share a list of those helping with the donation drive. Murwillumbah ANZ, Murwillumbah Coles, Murwillumbah Tyres, Tweed Super Sports, Hamper and Hamper, National Storage Chinderah, Dan Murphy’s Tweed Heads, Tweed Church of Christ, the Lions Emergency Management Team, Suncorp as well as other local businesses. “We are still accepting donations of non-perishable items such as camping gear which is really needed as well as baby items including baby powder, baby cream and baby bottles, we are also in need of back to school items for children including stationary etc as kids are going back to school and new school items are really needed as well as pet food, personal care/toiletries/ cleaning items etc,” she said. “We will be advised also within 24-hours by Lions Emergency Management of other requirements for the specific receiving destinations. “Donations will be accepted between 9am to 4pm until Friday, January 10. “We have been advised by agencies not to accept secondhand items. “This overwhelming response is phenomenal. Incredible Aussie spirit! Huge thank you.”

By Jo Kennett VOLUNTEER FIREFIGHTERS from the Rural Fire Service (RFS) Far North Coast Strike Team have travelled to the South Coast of NSW to help with the firefighting effort. On Monday, January 6, 18 members from Far North Coast brigades flew to Canberra to assist in fighting the fires that have decimated many communities in the south of the state. Cudgen Rural Fire Brigade life member and North Coast RFS Group Captain Mark ‘Min’ Eglington is leading the strike team for the first five-day deployment, assisted by Senior Deputy Captain Paul Norman. Some of the firefighters were tasked to the Bega Tathra region on the first

day, though it is unknown whether they were staying in that area. RFS Team Manager of the Far North Coast Team, Superintendent David Cook, said it was expected that further local crews will be required and rotated down south on five-day deployments. “We have had our emergencies in the northern region so the teams have been busy here for months but they were very keen to go and assist because we have had plenty of assistance in our area as well,” Supt Cook said. “They are keen and in good spirits. “We have approximately 100 firefighters to continue rotations.” Supt Cook said he had been firefighting since 1991 but this fire season was proving unlike any he had experienced.

The army of local volunteers have been working hard to pack the items to be trucked. Inset is Snr Minister John Latta

Tweed volunteer firefighters head to South Coast “We have seen these sorts of fires before but not covering such a great expanse and also for such a duration,” he said. “Every day you learn more because fire science continues to evolve. “We use a lot of new tools like fire behaviour analysis which gives better predictions of potential fire spread which enables us to get more warnings out. “We try to push people to use our technologies like the Fires Near Me app so they can tap into information that is pertinent to their safety and survival.” Supt Cook said the Mt Nardi fire behind Commissioners Creek and Doon Doon was still burning. “Mt Nardi is in very rugged terrain and there are internal pockets still smouldering away, so we are actively

monitoring them, but they are well within containment lines,” he said. “We need significant rain to put them out. A few millimetres won’t put them out. “We need significant soaking rain over a sustained period.” Supt Cook said he wouldn’t be surprised if we saw good rains in the region in the not too distant future. “I can remember about 2004 at Riley’s Hill we had a bushfire that we suppressed and the next day we are doing flood work in the Tweed.” Tweed RFS brigades have been fighting fires almost non-stop since September, beginning with the fires at Drake then at Busbys Flat, Rappville, Casino, Tenterfield, Wardell, Mt Nardi and the Myall Creek fire which burnt through to Woombah and Iluka in the Richmond Shire.

POLICE BEAT Police warn: lock cars or risk fine TWEED POLICE are warning locals to lock up their cars after conducting a public awareness campaign on the Tweed Coast on Friday, December 20, that upset some locals. Police left notices on unlocked vehicles warning them that they would receive a fine for leaving cars unsecured, after a string of car and home break-ins on the Tweed Coast. The notices, which were posted on unsecured vehicles around Pottsville and Hastings Point read, “Your vehicle was found to be unlocked by Police “It is an offence to leave your car out in the street (public places only) unlocked “There are three infringements from $120 up of Car Unlocked, windows down and key in ignition. “Warning only. Lock it or lose it and ensure you do not become a victim.” Pottsville’s Josie Vincart said a police officer who left a notice on her car asked that she let others know. “I thought it was very strange how adamant he was it be posted (on social media),” Ms Vincart said. “He also not only checked my car was unlocked but opened the door, leaned most of his person in to check both my passenger and back seats before I confronted him. “I didn’t see him take photographs though he said he did so to make a record of my warning. “He also returned a few days later, pulled up directly near my car to check it was locked then drive off. “He only checked my car and no others in my street.” However, many members of the public expressed support for the campaign on social media. Tweed Police released a statement saying Senior Constable Matt Jennings had spent a

He also hindered two other ambulance officers that attended the scene. Police were called in to assist the ambulance officers and the man was handcuffed and taken to The Tweed Hospital for medical treatment. The man was charged with two counts of hindering an ambulance officer with violence and common assault. He will appear at Tweed Heads Local Court on January 24.

Cars broken into at Kingscliff

TWEED POLICE are appealing to the public to help identify a person they believe can help with an investigation into car breakins at Kingscliff. On Monday, December 16, last year, several motor vehicles were broken into at Kingscliff with property stolen. If anyone recognises this person (pictured), please contact Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000 or email 27739@police.nsw.gov.au

few hours in the local area “giving advice and information to the community in relation to opportunistic crime”. “Steal from motor vehicles is a worldwide problem, but we can reduce the chances if we secure our cars better and remove valuable items,” he said. Police have repeatedly asked Tweed Coast residents to secure vehicles because of the continuing crime spree along the coast, particularly in the Casuarina/Kingscliff area. They say opportunistic offenders take advantage of the Tweed Coast’s reputation as an easy target area because homes and vehicles are often left unlocked.

Man charged with assaulting ambulance officers A MAN has been charged with assault after ambulance officers responded to an emergency in Kingscliff on Friday, January 3. Tweed Police said it was around 10pm that night when a 33-year-old man was given medical aid before being taken to a nearby ambulance to be transported to The Tweed Hospital. Police allege the man responded violently and struck an ambulance officer.

Tweed Shire Councillors following the 2016 Tweed Shire Council elections

Councillors enter election year eager to gain votes

Call now to take advantage of great rates and circulation

By Jonathon Howard CAMPAIGNING FOR the 2020 Tweed Shire Council election is expected to get underway in the coming months with all seven councillors expressing an eagerness to be re-elected following the vote on Saturday, September 12. The election is expected to see a clear party division this year with all the big parties in the mix including Cr James Owen already steering his “Take Back Tweed” campaign under the Liberal Party banner, while Labor Party member Cr Reece Byrnes is calling out the Liberal-Nationals’ plans for Tweed as “toxic”. The Greens remain a strong force in the Tweed backing Mayor Katie Milne with the independent candidate and Nationals Party member Cr Warren Polglase also eager for another four years. Independents Cr Chris Cherry, Cr Pryce Allsop and Cr Ron Cooper are also keen to be re-elected, having established a strong name in areas of community, business and consultation. The Weekly put several questions to councillors this week including their hopes for 2020 and whether they intend to run at the election.

Feeling Dizzy?

You could have a balance or ves�bular disorder

BALANCE is easily taken for granted. However when the fragile ves�bular organs of the inner ear and brain are damaged by illness or injury, anyone can lose their ability to balance.

o achieve good physical balance, we rely on our brain, eyes, innerear, and musculoskeletal system to work in harmony.

Balance disorders are typically under diagnosed and undertreated. More than 1/3 of adults aged 40 years and older experience vestibular dysfunction at some point in their lives. Common symptoms of vestibular disorders include vertigo and dizziness. Vertigo is a spinning or whirling sensation, or an illusion of the self or world moving. Dizziness is a lightheaded, floating or rocking sensation. Poor balance, nausea, visual disturbances, headache, hearing loss, tinnitus, and pain or fullness in the ears can accompany vestibular disorders.

HOW CAN YOUR OSTEOPATH HELP? There are many causes of dizziness or vertigo. But most types of vestibular disorders can be diagnosed by means of a thorough medical history and clinical examination. The most common type of vertigo is Benign Paroxysmal Positional Vertigo (BPPV), and once diagnosed is easily treated with repositioning manoeuvres, with a success rate of 90%. (Silva, 2014). Another type of vertigo encountered is Cervicogenic Vertigo, which is due to a dysfunction in the neck. Again once diagnosed, it can be easily treated with Osteopathic intervention. Your Osteopath can diagnose most of the common types of vestibular disorders and can either treat the condition or refer on for further diagnosis and treatment. Dr Rudi Gerhardt B.Sc., D.O.

Cr Reece Byrnes

“I want to wish all the Tweed community a very happy new year,” Cr Byrnes, who responded to the questions first, said. “My hope is that soon we will see more rain, and put a dent in what is a widening bushfire crisis across the nation. “Labor in 2020 will continue our focus on jobs, community and the environment. “I will be putting myself forward to serve the community again as a Labor Councillor for the Tweed Shire.”

Cr Ron Cooper

Councillor Ron Cooper said he still has a lot of work to do to and will likely run again. “With so much to follow through on, it’s likely I will again run for office, the Tweed voters willing,” Cr Cooper said. Cr Cooper said he has a clear direction to continue opposing moves to make Kingscliff the city of the Tweed. “I will continue to oppose high-rise development in the Tweed except for Tweed Heads,” he said. “I hope that more roundtable community conversations can be held this year. “I hope that participants will continue to enjoy and praise these meetings.” Cr Cooper said with 380 attending the Kingscliff roundtable and 170 attending the Chinderah roundtable, he was “very disappointed to hear a councillor and a staff member calling the community apathetic”. “I hope that Council’s professional staff will act as community mentors,” he said. “This will add new level of learning for participants who are already contributing their valuable life experience, imagination and common sense to issues of importance to the Tweed.” Cr Cooper said he also hopes, this year, Council will stop referring to residents as

Cr Byrnes said since being elected in 2016, he’s always put the people of Tweed first. “And worked hard to deliver on an economy that protects local jobs, improves the community and protects our precious environment,” he said. “We need Labor on Council to protect our community against the Liberal-Nationals’ toxic plans for high-rise in our local villages, and their cruel plans for paid parking at the new Tweed Valley Hospital.”

Mayor Katie Milne intends to run a strong campaign this year focusing on the health and resilience of the landscape. “We have taken our environment for granted in the past that it will provide for us and keep us safe, but we must change the way we think about and manage it now,” Mayor Milne said. “The massive fires raging in the south west of our shire and across our nation focuses

our minds on the health and resilience of our landscape. “Such devastation to people, property, businesses and the environment is tragic beyond belief. “Our hearts go out to all those affected by this terrifying threat and our immense gratitude to all the firefighters and all those helping these communities.” Mayor Milne said “we were warned that climate change would bring more and bigger fires, floods, droughts, and heatwaves”. “But no one expected devastation of this scale to happen so quickly,” she said. “We must respond by looking at how we can make our landscape more resilient to these increasing natural disasters coming with climate change. “As one of the driest continents on the planet it’s essential that we look at restoring our landscape and keeping as much water in our soils as possible. “Regenerative landscape management is a practice that aims to do this by restoring our waterways and hydrating the landscape. “This will be the focus of my efforts for this new year. “I wish all our residents the best for the new year and ask for your support and assistance to take on this challenge by joining one of the many local Landcare groups to make it a good year for our country.” Check out the next edition of The Weekly to hear from the other councillors and their responses for the 2020 local government election year.

By Jonathon Howard TWEED SHIRE residents wanting to find out what happened at a Tweed Shire Council meeting will now be able to catch up online via a new webcasting system set to launch in 2020. NSW councils are now required to webcast meetings of the Council and of committees whose membership is made up of only councillors. “Tweed Shire Council will soon start webcasting Council meetings in order to comply with the new requirements,” Council said in a media statement. “Webcasting Council and Committee meetings increases the transparency of Council decision-making and allows access for members of our community who are unable to attend in person. “As Council meetings are held at the Murwillumbah Administration Office and

the Tweed Heads Administration Office, both locations are being upgraded to allow webcasting to happen.” A webcast of recorded Council meetings will be posted to Council’s website the day following the meeting - a delay of less than 24 hours - to allow for the minutes of the meeting to be uploaded at the same time as the webcast. “The Planning Committee meeting to be held on February 6, 2020, will be the first scheduled webcast for Council,” Council said. “The webcast of that meeting is scheduled for upload to Council’s website on February 7, 2020.” For more information on Council meetings, and to read Council’s Code of Meeting Practice, visit: https://www.tweed.nsw.gov. au/CouncilMeetings

Development Strategy needs local input TWEED SHIRE residents interested in shaping the future of their communities are encouraged to contact Tweed Shire Council to help shape the Community Development Strategy 2020 to 2024. Council’s draft Community Development Strategy 2020 - 2024 is now on public exhibition and will help guide future service for the diverse communities of the Tweed, whether you live in one of the coastal communities, inland villages or in Tweed Heads. The strategy has been developed from extensive research and community engagement and includes consultation with 250 individuals and 31 service providers via surveys, interviews, pop-up stalls, markets, network meetings, focus groups and a community forum.

From this engagement, four focus areas were identified to guide and strengthen how Council works with the community. Council’s Acting Manager Community and Cultural Services, Joanne Watters, said the strategy addresses matters such as the importance of access and inclusion, the need to address growing homelessness, maintaining community safety and resilience to climate change and the health and wellbeing of all residents. “It also outlines the need to ensure additional support is available for more vulnerable residents and that there are adequate opportunities for everyone in the Tweed,” Ms Watters said. The strategy is on public exhibition until January 30, 2020, and Council welcomes community feedback.

Works underway at Civic Centre WORKS ARE currently underway at the Murwillumbah Civic Centre Auditorium with the auditorium now closed until May 2020. Tweed Shire Council has received funding from the NSW Government’s Regional Cultural Fund to refurbish parts of the auditorium. During this time there will be some parking and traffic changes around the Murwillumbah Civic and Cultural Centre and access to the Canvas and Kettle room and vehicle entry ramp will be closed from January to April 2020, including the disabled parking bays. “Alternate options for accessibility will be provided and a disabled car park will be established near the base of the disabled pedestrian ramp in the existing bus parking area,” Council said. “The pedestrian ramp to access the Murwillumbah Civic Centre administration office will remain open.” The auditorium was built in 1974 and upgrades will bring it up to modern standards

for accessibility, energy efficiency and functionality. Once completed, the upgraded facility will create modern, attractive and functional cultural spaces for current and future generations of residents and visitors to enjoy. The $1.3 million project by funded by NSW Government’s Regional Cultural Fund ($1.14 million) and Tweed Shire Council ($186,000) will include: removal of asbestos from auditorium ceiling, replacement of the roof to fix persistent leaks, technical upgrades to theatre equipment such as lighting and sound, refurbishment of the foyer and provision of accessible toilets, accessible access to stage and backstage areas, and backstage refurbishment and addition of an accessible toilet. All asbestos removal works are taking place in accordance with statutory regulations. All works will be sealed and contained with no risk to staff or the public.

Varela and Swift Pharmacy donate weekly profits to bushfire appeal By Jonathon Howard SEVERAL LOCAL businesses have thrown their support behind the NSW Bushfire Appeal this week by donating goods and services to help struggling families, firefighters and volunteers to cope with one of the worst bushfires in Australia’s history. Among them is local business Varela and Swift Pharmacy in Murwillumbah, which is donating all the profits from the pharmacy this week to the bushfire appeal. Part owner Skye Swift said the initiative was in response to the scale and impact of the bushfires and desperate need for funds. “We wanted to find a way to assist people impacted by these continuing fires, as well as those firefighters and volunteers out there every day fighting to keep people and property safe,” she said. “So, we thought what better way than donating our profits for the week.” The initiative is likely to raise thousands of dollars with residents also able to drop off items such as eye drops and face masks in-store. “Residents can also buy items at the pharmacy to assist the bushfire victims and

these items will be delivered for them,” she said. In other news, Varela & Swift Pharmacy has announced a third owner to join Con Varela and Skye Swift at the helm (pictured above). Pharmacist Mathew Peate is the proud new part owner of the well-known local business and brings a wealth of knowledge and passion to the team. “It’s a great move for me,” he said. “I’m excited to be working with such a great team at Varela and Swift Pharmacy and eager to welcome both our current and new customers in 2020.” Con said he’s looking forward to Mat running the ship. “It’s great to have Mat in the ownership team,” he said. “This will be my 38th year at the pharmacy and 30th year as an owner.” Skye said she was delighted to welcome Mat aboard. “I feel so lucky to be in partnership with two of the most genuine and caring men I know, and we look forward to a strong future together.” To find out more about the donations at Varela & Swift Pharmacy visit the team at 80 Main Street, or phone: (02) 6672 2388.

Plans to stamp out illegal dumping

By Jonathon Howard TWEED SHIRE Council has recently launched a campaign to crack down on illegal dumping which cost ratepayers $160,000 last year and is impacting the natural beauty of the Tweed. Residents are being encouraged to use an online portal: ridonline.epa.nsw. gov.au, to report incidents of dumping which allows users to upload an image and location of the offence. It might be tyres dumped by the roadside, an old mattress in a bush reserve or a broken TV and other unwanted household items left on the kerbside. Dumpers will be slapped with a new on-the-spot fine for illegal dumping with the fine amount recently increasing to $4,000 for individuals and $8,000 for businesses. Council said in 2019 there were 349 dumping incidents reported in the Tweed Shire, 75 per cent of which were household waste dumped on kerbsides and in public parks and reserves. Council’s Manager Building and Environmental Health, David McNicoll, said illegal dumping is not acceptable, can be a health hazard to those who collect it, impacts wildlife and can result in the pollution of waterways. “We live in or visit the Tweed because of its natural beauty and illegal dumping is just not okay,” Mr McNicoll said. “Council is working in partnership with North East Waste to tackle this issue head on by ramping up our surveillance to identify dumpers. With on-the-spot fines for dumping starting at $4,000, it isn’t worth the risk. Just take it to the tip or book a free Council kerbside clean up.” Mr McNicoll said fines for asbestos dumping will be a major focus in 2020.

Illegal dumping is costing ratepayers $160,000 a year. Inset is Council Environmental Health Oﬃcer Kelly Piazza and Deputy Mayor Councillor Chris Cherry who want residents to love the Tweed and report illegal dumping.

“With a reduction in the cost to dispose of asbestos at landfill, now there is no excuse to dump asbestos,” he said. “Council is calling on the community to help get rid of illegal dumping by reporting any dump sites or forwarding the registration details of those seen dumping and locations of the dump site direct to Council.” North East Waste project coordinator, Karen Rudkin, said the portal is already experiencing some success with eight reports in three weeks and counting. She also highlighted dumping at charities is a concern.

“Dumping on charities is also a significant issue, particularly at this time of the year,” she told The Weekly. “We would like to urge people to think carefully before giving to charities to ensure they are donating and not dumping.” You can report illegal dumping at https://ridonline.epa.nsw.gov.au or by contacting Council on (02) 6670 2400. Further information is available at www. tweed.nsw.gov.au/illegaldumping This project is a NSW Department of Planning, Industry and Environment Waste Less Recycle More initiative funded from the waste levy.

Tweed rallies for drought

By Jo Kennett WHILE BUSHFIRES ravage Australia, people living in drought-stricken communities to our west are struggling to survive and Tweed locals have stepped up to help. Two couples have been raising funds for the drought-stricken community of Hebel, just over the border in western Qld, which has had virtually no rain or income for seven years. Bogangar’s John and Sue Cochrane and friends Maree and Maca MacDonald travelled to the Nindigully Pig Races last year and called into the outback town of Hebel for lunch. “That’s when we learned of the hardship the town was going through,” John said. Mr Cochrane said they were told about one farmer who had no choice but to sell his last remaining breeding cattle. The RSPCA said the cattle were too poor to sell so they were returned to the farmer. As he had no money to buy feed, he was left with no alternative but to shoot all the cattle, then he took his own life. The Cochranes and MacDonalds were moved to action, appealing to the Tweed community for help. The Hebel community has been stunned by the generosity of Tweed residents with thousands raised, including $3,700 to a family that were devastated to lose a vital load of hay to fire on Christmas Eve. Donations have also helped buy new uniforms for students at the tiny Hebel State School. “To physically see the drought and effect on farmers out there is very emotional and makes you appreciate more the hardship they are going through,” Mr Cochrane said. “Any donations would be greatly appreciated.” Donations can be made to: Southern Cross C/U, BSB: 722-744 A/C, Hope for Hebel A/C # 100131269.

Two Murwillumbah students top the state By Jonathon Howard THE TWEED Shire continues to prove it can punch above its weight in education with two of the states brightest young minds graduating from Mount St Patrick College in 2019. The two students, James Bagnall and James Keogh, topped the list in two HSC subjects last year. James Bagnall ranked first in the state in Earth and Environmental Science subject and said he’s keen to use his intellect to develop a future brain technology interface. James’ ATAR was 97.75 per cent which is among the highest in NSW and came surprisingly easy to the teenage whiz. “I’m going to study a Bachelor of Science and Bachelor of Advanced Studies at Sydney University,” he said. James said he worked through his year 12 studies while in year 11, completing both his chemistry and mathematics subjects early. “From that I had two free units and was able to drop another subject,” he said. “This meant I didn’t have any homework for almost a whole year, while continuing my passion for research in neuroscience which I started in year 10 via an online course.” Ja m e s s a i d h e t ook a rel axed approached to school with the mindset of controlling stress and reducing the pressures of exams. “Maybe there was a tiny bit of stress,” he said. “But the advice I would give to others would be to have a good mindset, even if you hate a subject. “Try to tell yourself you love the subject and your outlook will have an impact on it. “Try to control the subconscious mind and you will see results.”

James Bagnall topped the state in Earth and Environmental Science and James Keogh topped the state in Industrial Technology

While it may not be as easy for some, James said he found school surprisingly easy from a young age. “At the age of four I was counting easily and calculating, mum didn’t even teach me to count, because I was too young,” he said. James said he hopes to work as a developer of brain technology interface using examples from Elon Musk as his inspiration. Another high achieving Tweed Shire student, also from Mount St Patrick College, was James Keogh who achieved first in Industrial Technology and the second highest score in Earth and Environmental Science behind James Bagnall. James said he was interested in multimedia studies but said he was surprised to top the state in the subject. “I’m hoping to study either marine science or geology,” he said.

James said the results showed you do not need to be in a big city school to achieve outstanding results. “It’s pretty special,” he said. “Especially coming from Murwillumbah, it shows that it doesn’t matter where you are, if you enjoy something go for it.” James also had some helpful advice to other young students. “Learn the syllabus,” he said. “I think it’s really important that students really try their best to learn the syllabus. “All the answers are in there you just have to learn it. “I remember me and a mate going through the syllabus together before the HSC and it was a huge help. “I think it’s also important to apply yourself to the theory and not just the practical.” A total of 75,000 year 12 students from across NSW sat their HSCs in 2019.

Road work changes for Kyogle Road NEW TRAFFIC diversion routes have been established through Murwillumbah as work resumes on the $1.5 million upgrade of Wollumbin Street and starts on a $640,000 upgrade of a 560-metre section of Kyogle Road at Bray Park. The new work on Kyogle Road at Bray Park will result in a half-kilometre section of Kyogle Road, south-west of Park Avenue, being reduced to one lane during work hours from Tuesday, January 7, for eight weeks as the road section is rebuilt. Motorists are advised to travel early to accommodate likely delays. At the existing worksite on Wollumbin Street, from Nullum Street to Byangum Road, the road section will remain closed to all traffic until the start of the new school year, January 28, 2020, when works are expected to be complete. The existing one-way system around the mega block that includes Sunnyside Mall - that is, via Commercial Road, Condong, Brisbane and Wollumbin streets - will remain in place until the end of the project. To improve safety and provide physical separation of eastbound and westbound turning traffic at the intersection of Condong and Riverview streets, Council established a new oneway traffic flow system around the block bordered by Condong, Riverview, Prince and Nullum streets. Southbound traffic will continue to travel via Condong Street and on to Riverview Street, while northbound traffic will exit Riverview Street at Prince Street and do the block before entering Condong Street. The change has been made to eliminate any conflict between on-coming heavy vehicles attempting to negotiate the tight turn at the intersection of Riverview and Condong streets at the same time. Customers wanting to get to the Top of the Town Shopping Centre can do so by travelling beyond the “local traffic only” signs on Nullum Street. Works completed along Wollumbin Street include the construction of new sewer and stormwater mains and the demolition and rebuild of the retaining wall on the upside embankment at the intersection with Riverview Street. Works have now resumed to apply a feature stone cladding to the face of the new retaining wall, complete reconstruction of the road intersection with Nullum Street and complete fencing and landscaping. Council wanted to thank motorists and residents for their patience during these works.

By Jonathon Howard TWEED SHIRE Council could be forced to impose level four water restrictions across the shire by the end of February if significant rainfall is not received at Clarrie Hall Dam. The warning follows the driest year on record for the Tweed Shire in 2019, with only half the average rainfall 716.7mm received from an average rainfall of 1571mm. However, there is a good chance parts of the Tweed Shire will receive between 50mm and 100mm for the rest of January, according to the latest Bureau of Meteorology (BOM) climate outlook. Over the next three months, between January and the end of March, BOM indicates there is a 75 per cent chance of between 300mm and 400mm in some parts of the Tweed, while other parts have a 75 per cent chance of receiving between 400mm and up to 600mm. Despite the prediction for rain in early 2020, Tweed Shire Council wanted to urge Tweed residents to refocus on saving water after the holidays to ensure the Tweed’s drinking water lasts as long as possible. Council’s Manager of Water and Wastewater Anthony Burnham said up to Christmas the community responded well to Level 2 water restrictions (and Level 4 in Tyalgum) but since then consumption has been rising again. “On our current trajectory, we will be introducing Level 3 water restrictions in early February and then the severest Level 4 restrictions by the end of February,” Mr Burnham said. “This timeline strongly demonstrates the very serious situation the Tweed faces and should prompt everyone to heed our call to action and save water now. “We need to get back on track quickly as we cannot afford higher levels of water use as we only have one small dam supplying the entire community. Currently Clarrie Hall Dam is at 70.2 per cent capacity and falling nearly two per cent a week (at the time of print).”

Bureau of Meteorology figures have confirmed 2019 as the driest year on record at Bray Park, with only 716.7mm of rain recorded, less than half the average of 1571mm. In 2002 when the Tweed last went to Level 4 water restrictions, the annual rainfall was higher at 767.5mm for the year. Since records began there have only been five other years when the recorded rainfall at Bray Park dipped below 1000mm: 2002, 767.5mm; 1986, 846.0mm; 1915, 863.0mm; 1902, 742.6mm; and, 1885, 754.0mm. The Bureau also has confirmed that soil moisture levels are very low (heading towards the one percentile), suggesting that any rain received will be taken up by the soil and result in little to no run-off to replenish the water supply. What is needed is significant steady rain. On the temperature front, the Bureau forecasts an 80 per cent chance of higher than median temperatures. “These statistics and forecasts are evidence that the Tweed is in the grips of a prolonged and serious drought,” Mr Burnham said. “While we did receive 59mm in the catchment on Christmas Eve which allowed us to stop releasing water from the dam for three days, we are again releasing water every day to meet demand and the dam level is continuing to fall.” To find out how to save water and what the water restrictions mean for you, visit www. tweed.nsw.gov.au/savewaternow

Nationals launched their campaign to give seniors a transport card at the election and Lismore MP Janelle Saﬃn (inset ) wants to know when it will get started.

By Jonathon Howard TRANSPORT FOR NSW says it remains on track to roll out the highly anticipated Regional Seniors Travel Card this month. A spokesperson for Transport for NSW told The Weekly the card will help ease the pressure of travel costs for eligible seniors living in regional and rural areas and “help them stay connected with family and friends and access essential services”. There are an estimated 400,000 eligible seniors living in regional NSW, but a specific date is yet be set on when they can apply for the card. “Eligible seniors will be able to apply for their card through Service NSW later this month,” the Transport for NSW spokesperson told The Weekly. The response followed questions from Member for Lismore Janelle Saffin who had called on the Berejiklian-Barilaro Government to deliver on its promised launch date for the seniors’ travel card of this month. Ms Saffin said local pensioners had been contacting her in recent weeks, keen to find out details of when and how they can apply for the $250 voucher, which was a National’s election pledge from the March 2019 State election. “When they read that the card’s launch was slated for January, they fully expected that

this would mean from Wednesday, January 1, 2020,” Ms Saffin said. “I have also contacted the office of NSW Minister for Regional Transport and Roads Paul Toole, to ask for the launch as soon as possible.” The Regional Seniors Transport Card provides eligible seniors living in the Lismore electorate with a $250 prepaid card to help with the cost of everyday travel. The card can be used to pay for NSW TrainLink Regional train and coach services, fuel and taxi trips. To be eligible, you must be an age pensioner with a valid Pensioner Concession Card or a Commonwealth Seniors Health Card holder. While Service NSW’s website references the card, Ms Saffin confirmed with its management that more information, including application details, were not yet available. “Pensioners I have spoken to tell me how difficult they are finding it to keep their cars on the road as they are hit with so many other bills,” Ms Saffin said. “Any extra concession which helps to reduce the costs of personal travel or public transport will be welcomed by pensioners with open arms. “It’s been nine months since voters were promised this card by the Liberal-Nationals Government and I think they have been quite patient waiting for it to materialise.”

Expect more from Extinction Rebellion Rescue Squad launch vital fundraiser By Jonathon Howard MURWILLUMBAH COMMUNTERS can expect more peaceful protest from the local branch of Extinction Rebellion in 2020, which followed a protest on the Murwillumbah bridge on Friday, November 29. The protest was organised in support of stronger policies to address climate change and was organised by a local branch of the Extinction Rebellion movement. The protestors received a range of feedback from motorists including shouting abuse at the peaceful protestors such as â&#x20AC;&#x153;get a jobâ&#x20AC;? while others welcomed the protestors and showed their support. Local Extinction Rebellion member Barry Firth said the event was run on the same date as the global student strike action took place around the world. â&#x20AC;&#x153;In Australia, an estimated 60,000 people in total held sit-down strikes outside politiciansâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; offices, in response to the bushfires tragically gripping the country,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Participants heard from bushfire survivors and First Nations leaders, raised thousands of dollars for the Bushfire Appeal.

â&#x20AC;&#x153;They also called on all politicians to increase support for Indigenous land management and the Rural Fire Service.â&#x20AC;? Mr Firth said the protest in Murwillumbah was designed to be both non-violent and nondisruptive. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The morning commuters gave us a lot of friendly toots, and occasional mild criticism,â&#x20AC;? he said. Mr Firth provided The Weekly with a statement from the members of Extinction Rebellion and said the group intends on continuing to schedule peaceful protests. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We are a group of citizens concerned about the lack of real, meaningful action to address the current climate and environmental crisis,â&#x20AC;? the statement reads. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We use non-violent civil disobedience to demand this action from the Australian government and businesses. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We will continue in rebellion and disobedience until these demands are met.â&#x20AC;? Mr Firth said the Extinction Rebellion Tweed Valley group meets on Thursdays at 5.30pm, at the Community Centre in Knox Park. â&#x20AC;&#x153;New participants are always welcome,â&#x20AC;? he said.

By Jo Kennett TWEED DISTRICT Rescue Squad VRA has launched a massive appeal to help with their work, including vital support of the firefighting effort on the NSW South Coast. Tweed District Rescue President Drew Carr said most people donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t realise Volunteer Rescue Association (VRA) squads from all over NSW are assisting the Rural Fire Service (RFS) in a number of ways. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We have just deployed two general land rescue operators and our Tweed Rescue 4 vehicle down to Bega to relieve tired and stretched rescue crews,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Rescue 4 left Sunday afternoon, January 5. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It was only decided at 1pm that they were going to go, and they left at 2pm. â&#x20AC;&#x153;They met up with another VRA truck on the Central Coast and they are convoying to Bega. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Their first shift is four days long and there is potential for a second crew from Tweed being deployed to relieve them and potentially a third.â&#x20AC;? Mr Carr said the rescue vehicle was a fully accredited rescue resource. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Rescue 4 is self-sufficient for any general rescue requirements including road crash and vertical rescue,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Every area has to be covered by a general land rescue resource. â&#x20AC;&#x153;In the Tweed itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Tweed VRA that is accredited in that role. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We are just lucky to be in a position where we can perform our role in the Tweed while sending help to the south coast.â&#x20AC;? The squad has set a target of $200,000 for the fundraiser. â&#x20AC;&#x153;If we reach that target, we can redistribute funds to other VRA units in NSW that are directly impacted by the fire,â&#x20AC;? Mr Carr said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We have already heard that one VRA squad has lost their shed.â&#x20AC;? â&#x20AC;&#x153;To help Tweed District support not only our community but other NSW communities, we do need funds to make it happen.

â&#x20AC;&#x153;Thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s fuel for vehicles and equipment, servicing costs, food and drinks, and accommodation just to name a few.â&#x20AC;? Mr Carr said that those costs come out of the squad's operational account which is funded by the community and raffles. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s outstanding that everyone is donating to the online viral fundraisers, but it would be great if people could also think about the local not-for-profit organisations and charities that work in this area that often have limited funding,â&#x20AC;? Mr Carr said. Tweed District Rescue Squad receives minimal funds for their work, which includes persons trapped collisions, domestic and industrial rescues, vertical rescues, inland waterways and swiftwater rescues, whilst supporting other emergency services. Tweed Rescue is also known for their frequent Wollumbin/Mt Warning rescues and public engagement activities. They have to fundraise in order to buy or upgrade their own vehicles and equipment. Mr Carr said donations will â&#x20AC;&#x153;help fund our response to help the community in all the ways from communications, emergency management response, and also to deploy strike teams to relieve tired rescue crewsâ&#x20AC;?. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Please dig deep as we operate on donations, grants, and the good will of the community,â&#x20AC;? he said. You can donate on the Tweed District Rescue Squads Facebook page, or call (02) 6674 4875. Please give generously.

Falls Fest fence jumpers pay the price By Jo Kennett FENCE JUMPERS who tried to avoid paying for a ticket to Falls Festival at the North Byron Parklands have been stung with fines and criminal infringements. Tweed Police District Inspector Matt Keogh was in charge of police operations at the festival and said that although it was a positive year for the festival, fence jumping has always been an issue. “We had seen a drop in previous years and so it was a bit disturbing that those numbers crept back up this year,” Insp Keogh said. “There were 55 people caught. “They were a combination of locals and interstate people, but probably more locals.” Insp Keogh said Tweed Police would take legal action against offenders. “We give them each a criminal infringement notice for trespass which costs around $350,” he said. “Our advice would be to buy a ticket and avoid that cost, it’s a lot cheaper. “We issued those on site, so they walk away from the festival with the ticket.” Three-day tickets to Falls Festival were $309 and $159 for a day ticket. Up to 20,000 patrons attended each day of the three-day event. Insp Keogh said police were pleased with the overall behaviour of festivalgoers. “The general behaviour of patrons was really good, but it is still disappointing to see a lot of people bringing prohibited drugs into the festival,” he said. “We don’t hide the fact that we operate drug dogs as a risk mitigation strategy at these festivals, so it was disappointing to see people try to bring drugs in.” Police said 50 people were detected carrying drugs, mainly MDMA, although police also located cannabis, ketamine, cocaine and LSD. Insp Keogh said one person was also charged with drug supply after being found “with a significant number of MDMA tablets”.

Tweed Byron Police pledged to Take 3 for The Sea at the Falls Festival

A 20-year-old man from Qld was also charged with sexual touching without consent. Insp Keogh said the man was ordered to appear in Byron Bay court. “We work closely with the promoters with security and medical personnel on site,” Insp Keogh said. “We were happy with behaviour and it was pleasing to see we didn’t have any significant events or injuries to patrons.” Many festivalgoers donated tents and camping equipment to assist local relief efforts in Mallacoota/Tobago which were expected to be on the ground as temporary shelter by Saturday, January 4. Tweed Byron Police also joined in the Take 3 for Byron which is part of the Take 3 for the Sea campaign to stop plastic pollution. As part of an environmental initiative, no single use plastic water bottles were sold onsite. The Bettercup exchange system replaced single use plastic cups at the bars and all caterers were required to use compostable packaging and utensils with any surplus fresh unused food donated to the Liberation Larder in Byron Bay.

Falls Festival success despite calls for more buses By Jo Kennett THE FALLS Festival director, Brandon Saul, says that problems with buses on New Year’s Eve at Yelgun were remedied quickly and that transport ran smoothly for most of the event. “The buses went really well this year,” Mr Saul told The Weekly. “There were some challenges at the end of the night on the 31st with an unprecedented amount of people joining the line at the bus stop after 1am when the last bus was advertised to leave. “We called in extra buses to cater for the increased numbers and there were no problems for the rest of the festival. “Going forward we will factor in more people deciding to catch the last bus and not prepurchasing bus tickets in our scheduling to make sure everyone is catered for.” There were no delays getting campers on to the site on Thursday, December 30, or when the festival wrapped on Friday, January 3, with all campers exiting the site by 11am, however the transport situation on New Year’s Eve caused some community concerns. Pottsville resident Rosie Greenup was one parent called to pick up her daughter Jacinta

on New Year’s Eve at North Byron Parklands, Yelgun, because her daughter was unable to get home. “When I did pick her up there were all these people saying, ‘please take me home’,” she said. “The dangerous thing was that there were all these people on the side of the road in the pitch-black walking home as I drove into the site. “They probably had no other way of getting back.” Jacinta told her mother she had a friend who was first in line for the bus when the concert finished but he still waited two hours for a bus. “He rang my daughter at the back of the queue and said don’t bother waiting for the bus,” Ms Greenup said. “There were two girls who stayed with us from Sweden and they didn’t get home until 4am. “The bus was supposed to run every hour. “There was just a real problem and the kids were all ringing each other, and I heard some had waited four hours.” Ms Greenup said her daughter and friends said the bus service was much better at Splendour in the Grass, also held at North Byron Parklands at Yelgun last July.

Two Tweed Heads women win big on scratchys Karen wins The Weekly’s $500 Shopping Spree By Jonathon Howard A TWEED Heads business owner has declared 2020 will be her year to relax after she won the top prize of $50,000 on a $4 Peppermint Bingo Instant Scratch-Its ticket. The winning ticket was purchased at Newton’s Newsagency, 49 Wharf Street, Tweed Heads. Speaking with a NSW Lotteries official this week, to confirm the win, the winning woman recounted how she discovered her windfall. “I buy myself one or two Instant Scratch-Its every week,” she said. “So, you could say this was a little bit of a Christmas present to myself as I bought it on Christmas Eve. “I scratched it while I was at work and then as soon as I saw I had won I raced back into the newsagency where I bought it and showed them. “We were all screaming ‘I can’t believe it! I can’t believe it. “I just feel so lucky. I can’t believe I won a top prize! “The first thing I did was call my mum and she was screaming too. “It’s just an unbelievable feeling! I’m really, really happy.” When asked how she planned to enjoy her instant windfall, she revealed it had come at a good time. “It is such a relief,” she said. “Last year was a pretty tough one for me with my health and my work, so I think God is looking out for me because I’ve had a rough time. “I’ll use the windfall to pay off a few bills and head into 2020 more relaxed because I won’t have to stress anymore.” The hard-worker revealed she had not left any time to celebrate after the festive period, instead focusing on her small business. “I haven’t had a chance to celebrate because I am working at my business but once everything calms down, I might take a few days off to go on a small trip and relax,” she said.

Newton’s Newsagency owner Robert Newton said he was thrilled his outlet had sold another major prize. “It was fantastic to discover we’d sold a top prize winning Instant Scratch-Its ticket,” he said. “We’ve put up signs in store to let everyone know we’ve sold a winner. “This is the 34th major prize we’ve sold since we opened over 30 years ago. “We hope there is a number 35 soon! “Congratulations to our winner. We wish her all the best with her prize and we’re so pleased it has come at a good time for her.” Between January 1 and December 31, 2019, there were 114 Instant Scratch-Its top prize winners who collectively took home more than $9.61 million in top prizes. During this same time, Instant Scratch-Its players enjoyed more than 27.1 million wins across all prize tiers worth more than $208.8 million. The big win comes as a second Tweed Heads woman won a $10,000 Instant Scratch-Its ticket she was gifted for Christmas. The winning $1 Lots O’Luck ticket was purchased at Tweed City News, Shop 245, Tweed City Shopping Centre, Tweed Heads South. “I received this winning ticket as a Christmas gift,” she said. “I scratched it then and there on Christmas Day and I couldn’t believe what I was seeing. “It was absolutely amazing! “I’ve never won anything like it in my life. “It was an extra special Christmas, that’s for sure.”

By Jonathon Howard THOUSANDS OF entries were again received in The Weekly’s annual $500 Shopping Spree Competition run during December 2019. The Weekly team was pleased to announce Reserve Creek local Karen Iwanuscha (pictured) as this year’s winner after she filled out a voucher at Sunnyside Meats.

Pedal to the metal for Speed on Tweed

By Jonathon Howard THE PEDAL is firmly to the metal for the return of the Festival of Speed on Tweed which is likely to run on the October long weekend (October 3-5) at Murwillumbah Showgrounds. This date, however, is subject to agreement from other community stakeholders and Tweed Shire Council. There are now early talks that Speed on Tweed could include a special racing division for later model cars, while maintaining the core race to predominately classic vehicles only. Speed on Tweed committee member Mal Yev said it was too early to talk about the divisions on offer, but said the committee was eager to involve separate racing divisions. “We are considering an option to run more recent vehicles, but we’re still maintaining the core historic race that Speed on Tweed was famous for,” he said. Following the recent joining of Queensland Raceway and Lakeside Raceway owner and businessman John Tetley, alongside a range of eager business sponsors, Speed on Tweed has its best chance yet of returning to Murwillumbah with national fanfare. Mr Tetley is the owner of racing sanction body Racers (Recreational and Competitive Events Resources and Services), which will provide insurance and determine the best way to establish the track including

speed dampeners, barriers and spectator fencing. “We currently help with more than 700 racing events across Australia annually,” he told The Weekly in December 2019. “What we offer is the heavy lifting and the track building and race officials. “The locals carry the personality and marketing of the event, which is great. “Our job is the more predictable and what the deal we’re trying to do is three years and we make some money out of the event and then we pass the furnishings (racecourse

equipment) over to the Speed on Tweed committee to run the event.” Following Mr Tetley’s visit and the announcement of an October race date, businesses have since been quick to sign up for sponsorship packages. Speed on Tweed Committee Vice President Dion Andrews said the response so far had been “outstanding” and he’s confident the race will go ahead in early October. “We are currently looking at the October long weekend, and it will be great to finally have a date for racers, spectators and sponsors to work towards,” he said.

“We are now calling on local businesses to get behind the event with a sponsorship package. “ Pa c k ag e s ra n g e i n p r i c e s and offer a range of benefits to businesses including advertising and promotions. “We also need some help with planning aspects of the event (see below).” Anyone interested in sponsoring the event is encouraged to contact Speed on Tweed sponsorship coordinator Bill Bitossi, who said he’s had a great run of confirmed sponsors so far. “We are now in a race to fulfil all of the requirements for Tweed

Shire Council and as such are putting out a call to arms for anyone with experience in the following: site planning, noise and sound management plan, lighting plan, signage plan, risk, safety and emergency management plan, communications plan, first aid plan, security management plan, liquor management plan, traffic control plan and waste management,” he said.

Tribute to John Curtis: "flowers every Friday"

By Peter Murphy EVERY SO often we hear stories that touch our hearts. That happened to me when I attended the funeral service of a golfing mate John Curtis, a Tweed resident since he was a boy. I thought I knew John rather well, having acquainted with him for more than 40 years both on and off the golf course and shared lots of laughs over a coldie following regular Saturday rounds with madcap mates … and there were plenty of them. But I really didn’t know this happygo-lucky man at all because while externally he was always cheerful and chatty, he kept to himself about things personal. And one of those things was his romantic side. Every Friday without fail for 52 years of his marriage, the Tweed Heads South newsagent bought beautiful oriental lilies after work, took them home and gave them to his darling wife Beverly with a loving kiss. But John didn’t buy his favourite flowers for Beverly on Friday, December 20, 2019, because he died unexpectedly two days earlier from a suspected heart attack. He was 72. It was, without a doubt, the saddest day of Beverly’s life, as it was for her three children: Christopher, Katrina and Rebecca; and four grandchildren: Jasmine and Tiah (Bec’s daughters); Oliver and Flynn (Katrina’s sons). Their heartbreak, their grief and their many tears were clearly

evident at John’s funeral service the following Monday at his “second home”, the Coolangatta & Tweed Heads Golf Club on the banks of the Tweed River in NSW. Such was the admiration and love for this devoted family man and maker of many friends that the club auditorium was packed with what somebody said was “half of the town”. They came from near and far to say their final goodbyes to a man of substance who was known for his kind heart, friendly demeanor and dedication to his work. He never took a day off sick, not even if he was as crook as a dog from too much imbibing the night before. Every day for more than 40 years he always turned up at his old highway news store before the sun came up to roll the papers for his delivery run. Floods nor cyclones would halt his progress. He even delivered papers by boat and once swam a creek to make a drop-off. He was a rock as a decades-long active community service member and businessman and long-time executive committeeman of his golf club, as indeed he was a rock to his family. He was the glue that held them together, which was so obvious by the outpouring of love his children and granddaughters voiced in their tributes to their beloved “Poppy”. Funeral celebrant Liz Jesse more than once spoke that one word which aptly described the feelings

John and Beverly at the beginning of a lifetime of love and laughs

the family had for John Curtis: “beloved”. Among the attendees too there was a great deal of love for this wonderful man who touched so many hearts. Such was the case that grown men were openly shedding tears. So, who was John Michael Curtis, known to his golfing mates as “Curly”? His name never appeared in media headlines for any heroics; he never received any Australia Day awards; he was never on the Queen’s honours’ list. No, that isn’t what he was about. He just went about doing what any caring and kind human being would do and what a patriarch should epitomise. He was, in essence, a good man, a good provider, a good deed-doer who always seemed to have time for everyone. Curly Curtis never boasted about his sporting achievements in the 1960s as an Ipswich Boys Grammar r e c o r d - b r e a k i n g sw i m m i n g champion, nor his talent as a professional barefoot water skier and one of the stars of the 60s and 70s ski troupes at the Surfers Paradise Ski Gardens and Chinderah Ski Lodge on the Tweed River. One of his stunts involved jumping through a “ring of fire” that always thrilled spectators, which numbered in their thousands. One of the Gold Coast’s and Australia’s major tourist attractions, the internationally-famous Surfers Paradise water ski shows featured 24 different acts including men’s jumps, slaloms, pyramids, girls ballet, clowns and daredevil fire tricks. Apart from the ballet, John was in the thick of it, even as a clown. Starring the best skiers in the country, there were high-risk boat sequences culminating in boats launching through flaming barricades at the top of jump ramps. John was there also when the Ski Gardens hosted the world water ski championships in 1965 which attracted 80 of the best, representing 20 countries. It was the first and only time Australia was the host country of world ski titles.

John also demonstrated his “have a go” attitude when he raced dragsters at the Surfers Paradise International Raceway, owned and operated by the Ski Gardens’ proprietor and property developer Keith Williams. In fact, many of his old mates only found out about these feats when it was eulogised at his funeral by good friend Ken Bennett. Ken also told of Curly’s ardent support for “his footy team”, rugby league’s St George Illawarra Dragons. An email to Beverly from the Dragons Team read: “Our sincere condolences to you, Christopher, Katrina and Rebecca and your extended family over the loss of a beautiful man and a passionate St George supporter. We will do our best to bring home a premiership in 2020.” John had a personal association with St George, a fishing buddy by the name of Harry Bath, one of Australia’s rugby league legends and the 1977 premiership winning coach for the Dragons. Bath, who died in Sydney in 2008 aged 83, owned a 35-foot flybridge cruiser and on his fishing trips to Queensland he had as crew John and good mate Arthur Sears. As Bath supplied the boat, “Captain Curly” insisted that he and Arthur supplied the “beer, prawns and oysters”. Considerable imbibing meant skipper Bath’s boat encountered “rough going” as the team headed

north to Tippler’s Passage fishing grounds. When Cessnock-born John Curtis finished high school he started a job as an apprentice butcher in Kingscliff and it wasn’t long before he met the girl of his dreams in 1965 at Coolangatta’s famous The Patch beer garden. Using his country charm, he wooed Bev with flowers to begin a romance that many people can only dream of. The flowers kept coming every Friday. The teenage sweethearts were married on July 29, 1967, in Brisbane at the Mt Gravatt Presbyterian Church, and in 1975 John took over the running of his father Cleve’s Tweed South newsagency and worked as a team with Beverly for 20 years before selling and later retiring to live in Terranora. The Minjungbal Drive newsagency was a later inclusion to the Curtis smallgoods “corner store” built in the early 50s by Cleve and his father Walter. The original building was extended to also include the Tweed South Post Office which was managed by John’s mother Enid. John Michael Curtis was cremated at the Tweed Heads Gardens and Crematorium where his ashes were laid to rest beside his father and mother Clarence and Enid Curtis, his grandparents Walter and Grace Curtis and his uncle Keith Curtis. Peter Murphy is a journalist, author and former golfing mate of John Curtis.

Airport hotel tops out at seven storeys THE FINAL seventh floor of the Gold Coast Airport’s Rydges Hotel was completed in late 2019 marking an important construction milestone for the $50-million project. The builders are now focused on the internal fit out for the hotel, which includes the highly anticipated rooftop bar. The hotel is part of a $500 million investment in the Gold Coast Airport precinct, which also includes the $200 million southern terminal expansion – a three-level terminal with aerobridges. Representatives from Gold Coast Airport and the Queensland Airports Limited group, developer Trepang and builder Condev Construction toasted the milestone on Monday, December 16. Queensland Airports Limited CEO Chris Mills said it was an exciting time to be standing on level seven and experiencing the stunning ocean and hinterland views for the first time. “This is a key project for Gold Coast Airport and central to our $500 million investment in the precinct,” he said. Queensland Airports Limited Executive General Manager Property and Infrastructure Carl Bruhn said visitors would be checking into the new hotel by the middle of this year. “Construction has progressed well to date and the hotel is on track to be completed by mid-2020, which means our first guests will check-in shortly thereafter,” he said. Innovative features like pre-built bathroom pods accelerated the hotel construction process.

QAL CEO Chris Mills, Developer John ‘Foxy’ Robinson, Condev CEO Steve Marais and QAL EGM Property and Infrastructure Carl Bruhn perform the ceremonial final cement pour to signal the topping out of the new Rydges Hotel at Gold Coast Airport

About 760 employees and contractors have been inducted on site and 8,000 cubic metres of concrete pumped into the project since the first sod was turned in early February. Condev Construction Executive Chairman Steve Marais said the progress to date was pleasing. “With the structure built, the focus for our team is now on the internal fit-out and the building’s exterior,” he said. “We are excited about reaching this milestone before Christmas and look forward to handing over the keys to the developer in mid-2020. The new hotel will be of major benefit to domestic and international visitors alike as the region continues its rapid growth. “We’re very pleased to have been involved with the construction of such an iconic piece of infrastructure in the area.”

Discover the many wonders of the Illuminarium By Jonathon Howard AN EXCITING new immersive storytelling experience known as the Illuminarium has recently opened at the M|Arts Precinct in Murwillumbah and it’s a must have experience. The Illuminarium is set in an escape room where participants must work together in an Alchemists laboratory to solve puzzles, find clues and secrets to revealing ancient mysteries, magic spells and hidden treasures that unlock the door to the Illuminarium. Creator Talulah Rae is the head imaginateur at The Magic Theatre which is a multi-disciplinary production company specialising in immersive experiences and unique event productions in unusual spaces. Talulah has recently returned from The College of Extraordinary Experiences, an experience design conference held in a 13th century castle in Poland. She has a passion for creating immersive spaces that inspire curiosity, wonder and innovation in the way we relate to one another through storytelling and play. A passionate artist, Talulah told The Weekly she’s hoping people will experience something different and immerse themselves in the wonders of the Illuminarium. “The Illuminarium is more than just an escape room experience,” she said.

The Illuminarium is now open for residents to book and discover the many wonders inside

“It asks participants to continue the game, spreading generosity, kindness and connection through our community. “The game is for groups of two to six participants, aged eight years

and over, 14 and younger need to be accompanied by an adult. “There are multiple one-hour sessions available from Monday 9am to 5pm and Saturday 10am to 2pm throughout the month of January at M|Arts Precinct in Murwillumbah.”

Talulah was a participant in the recent Pitch for Change community project development course initiated by It Takes a Town inspiring generosity in the 2484 postcode. “I’d like to encourage groups and local families to come and experience

this unique opportunity to immerse yourself in the magic, curiosity and wonder of the illuminarium,” she said. “A perfect school holiday adventure for your family and friends.” Bookings can be made at www. themagictheatre.com.au/illuminarium

Llewellyn’s Bleeding Daylight exhibition to open By Jonathon Howard A NEW solo exhibition by renowned artist Llewellyn Skye is set to open at M|Arts on Friday, January 10. Viewers are invited to take a journey through the process of falling in and out of love through Llewellyn’s latest works. Described as bold floral abstractions in Bleeding Daylight, her works convey young love in a primal language of colour and gesture. “What emerges is a paradox of profound opposites from foolish, youthful passion which is freeing but all-consuming - it furnishes hope yet brings despair,” she said. “Such love is perfectly flawed in its overwhelming intensity but also beautiful and magical in its imperfections and surprises.” Taking inspiration from Bruce Cockburn’s song ‘Lovers in a Dangerous Time’, Llewellyn Skye’s effervescent, expressive bouquets are rendered with confident brush strokes in vibrant colours against dark and muted backgrounds. The work, which marries abstraction and expressionism, mirrors the sweetness and inevitable pain of the ardor of young romance, which, like the springtime, blooms with vigor but soon betrays its fragility. Bleeding Daylight recognises that with change and loss comes a darkness. But it also affirms the need to struggle to live in the moments, however fleeting, of beauty and light.

Join Llewellyn on Friday, January 10, from 5pm to celebrate her new body of work, with the official opening by Lorraine Pilgrim. “Through abstract florals I want to evoke the essence of young love, early

romance, inevitable drama, aspiring hope and despair. I want you to fall in and out of love,” Skye said. To find out more please visit: m-arts.com.au/bleeding-daylightllewellyn-skye/

LITTLE WOMEN

83699

Tweed Valley Weekly Locals Supporting Locals

It is good to start a new year with a great movie about women..! And a classic one for that matter, too. I am obviously talking about the recently released Little Women directed by Greta Gerwig. The 1868 novel by Louisa May Alcott, inspired by the author’s own family upbringing in Massachusetts, follows the four March sisters - Jo, Meg, Amy and Beth - from teenage years to adulthood. It has been a beloved text for countless generations of women and adapted for the big screen already six times, most notably in George Cukor’s 1933 version starring Katharine Hepburn, and Gillian Armstrong’s 1994 film with Winona Ryder. Many might wonder the need for yet another version of the same story, but Gerwig’s film is a reimagined post-modern, feminist epic, grounded in the 1860s but speaking to the world of today. Rather than telling the story in a linear fashion, the way Alcott and her other adapters have, director Gerwig has shuffled the order of the scenes, starting with the four sisters being already adult and going back to their childhood, as to discover what made them the individuals they have become. Their story is told almost entirely out of order, except for the Christmas letter from their father that opens the tale and the kiss that ends it. Gerwig’s script is more humorous than any previous film adaptations of the novel and weaves in it some elements of Alcott’s life, like letters and journals she wrote, so that the film becomes not only a film of the book but also a film about the book.

The amazing new artwork by Llewellyn Skye will feature at M|Arts

Being interviewed about the character of Joe, the aspirant writer interpreted by Saoirse Ronan – already nominated for the Golden globe for this role – Gerwig has said “the young woman trying to sell a story and figuring how much she needs to change it to be economically viable could have been me, yesterday, talking to a studio head”. That says everything about how contemporary the essence of the story still is..!

Exclusive screening of new film Jinpa something that day, albeit accidentally, clearly haunts Jinpa. The director Pema clearly extends an invitation to the audience to ponder not only the characters but also the actions they committed or are contemplating. The cinematography is stunning, contrasting the cold and harsh exteriors of the Tibetan plateau with the glowing and warm interiors in the village scenes. This film has screened at last year’s Venice Film Festival and has won several international awards, including best screenplay. The film will be shown once only in Murwillumbah at the Regent Cinema on Sunday, January 12, at 4pm. The film is in Tibetan with English sub-titles. For more information please phone Regent Cinema at 5 Brisbane Street, Murwillumbah, on (02) 6672 8265.

THE REGENT Cinema in Murwillumbah is one of the few places in Australia that will host a screening of Jinpa, the award winning sixth feature film from Tibetan director Pema Tseden, produced by the famed Hong Kong producer Wong Kar Wai. Set on the Kekexili Plateau in Tibet, Jinpa tells a fascinating story of life in Tibet, told through the story of a truck driver who after accidentally running over and killing a sheep, picks up a hitchhiker while he is on his way to a temple to atone for the death of the sheep. The hitchhiker, who happens to also have the name Jinpa, reveals he is on his way to kill the man who murdered his father ten years before. Since the men are not headed to the same town, at a certain point Jinpa leaves the hitchhiker at a fork in the road. But the purpose of the stranger’s visit as well as the odd coincidence that he too killed

TWEED REGIONAL Museum and Tweed Shire Libraries are again joining together to present a range of Discovery Days activities at museum and library branches throughout the shire this month. Wendell and Friends is a free program inspired by historical objects and photographs in the Museum collection. Local characters Wendell (the whistle), Tilley (the iron) and Snap (the camera), all members of the Museum collection, have come alive and will star in a range of drop-in activities offered for the duration of the school holidays at Tweed Regional Museum Tweed Heads. Children (and adults) can test their skill at activity sheets, jigsaws of local scenes, spotthe-difference in historical photographs, and hunting for Wendell and Friends characters hiding among the shelves and displays. The museum and libraries are also offering a series of one-off events to keep children entertained over the holiday period. Bring the whole family to our games sessions featuring vintage and modern games and get creative at a Wendell and Friends badge making workshop.

The Discovery Days school holiday program will end with a virtual tour of DreamWorks Animation: the Exhibition - Journey from Sketch to Screen via a live linkup to the National Museum of Australia. At Tweed Heads Library and Murwillumbah’s Regent Cinema, families can interact with the National Museum tour guide while they discover the behind-thescenes world of Dream Works Animation’s most popular films. Join beloved characters - Shrek, Toothless and Po - in a rare glimpse into the studio’s artistic and visionary approach to animation. There will be special activities after the screenings to extend the fun even longer. “We’re so excited to be able to access this blockbuster exhibition from the National Museum here in the Tweed and allow fans of the films to see amazing items from the studio’s archive,” Museum Director Judy Kean said. All activities are free. For some sessions bookings are essential - see www.tweed. nsw.gov.au/schoolholidays or Facebook for details.

HOT WATER

Has Your Hot Water System Been Checked Lately? Ever Heard of a Sacrificial Anode?

A sacriﬁcial anode is a vital part of your water system, and having it inspected can be the difference between an efﬁciently working system and a costly replacement. Manufacturers recommend that you maintain the anode in your system in order to prevent damage from rust + corrosion. THE ANODE IN YOUR SYSTEM SHOULD NEVER BE ALLOWED TO CORRODE AWAY, WHATEVER TYPE OR BRAND OF SYSTEM YOU HAVE SOLAR, ELECTRIC, GAS OR HEAT PUMPS Cutaway section of a typical electric hot water heater

FOR A LIMITED TIME we will check your anode in the Tweed & Gold Coast area FREE OF CHARGE.

“REMEMBER YOU CAN’T LOSE, NO ANODE REPLACEMENT NO CHARGE”

By Rachael Lebeter SEVERAL MONTHS ago, I saw a carpet snake that had been hit by a car on Tweed Valley Way. The snake was leaping across the road and clearly in a lot of pain. By the time I had safely turned around, the snake had crossed two lanes of traffic and been hit a second time. Its skin was completely spit open in several places. The carpet snake was in so much pain that it was writhing and biting itself. I moved the snake away from the road and called Tweed Valley Wildlife Carer’s 24-Hour Hotline on 02 6672 4789 for help. Fortunately, the suffering snake died shortly afterwards. The snake was obviously in pain. It is a shame that neither of the two cars that hit it, nor any other passer-

protect her babies. No one knows how they do it, but pouch young often survive car strikes.” Just before Christmas, a Northern Brown Bandicoot was hit by a car in Crabbes Creek. The driver of the car did the right thing: they stopped to check the animal and provide help. T h e d r ive r fo u n d t h at t h e bandicoot, an adult female, was dead. However, they checked the pouch and found four baby bandicoots. By stopping and checking the bandicoot, the driver saved the lives of its four babies. The baby bandicoots, 3 girls and a boy, weighed between 29 and 35 grams when they came into care. They were blind, hairless and so small that all four would fit in the palm of your hand. The babies were taken on by a dedicated TVWC carer. All throughout the holiday period, she has fed them every 4 hours in a process that takes a long time initially because the babies are so small and aren’t used to the teat.

by, stopped. If the snake hadn’t been hit the second time, it’s death would have been very slow and painful. Calling TVWC may not have saved the snake, but it could have saved it hours of pain and suffering. It can be difficult to return to an animal that you have run over, especially if you are feeling shock or horror. However, ensuring the animal is either helped or put out of its misery, is the humane thing to do. It is also a necessary part of taking responsibility for the impact we have on the environment around us, which is something we need to do now more than ever. In the case of Australia’s many marsupials, from possums to kangaroos, checking animals that have been hit by a car is even more important. This is because female marsupials carry their young in a pouch or riding on their back.

The efforts of the driver and TWVC members have paid off. The bandicoots, which are one of the fastest growing mammals in the world, will be ready for release in just a few weeks. In the wake of devastating bushfires, which are estimated to have caused the death of 5 million animals, caring for our wildlife becomes all the more important.

Keep an old towel and cardboard box in your car. If you find an injured animal or a marsupial with young, pick the animal up with the towel and contain it in the box.

Major award winners on the night were Club Person of the Year Adam Dalton, Patrons Award Jeff McDonald and Most Improved Bowler Dave Reynolds. The Stirrers Spoon went to Dave Evans. Last Saturday’s Ham Day was well attended with teams picked from the hat and triples played on a rotating format. Pairs were played 2,4,2. Winners on the day were Peter Ayres and Ian Jenkins.

Between the Flags

Cudgen Headland SLSC - Keith Kennedy

SURF LIFE Saving NSW has praised the efforts of the Far South Coast Clubs, Batemans Bay, Broulee, Bermagui, Tathra and Pambula for their assistance in the bushfire emergency. Up to 7,000 persons sought refuge at these Clubs. At one point Bermagui had 5,000 Batemans Bay 1,000 and the others 200 to 500. Clubs had all their IRB’s and rescue craft on stand by. Every Club was depleted of their gas, water, oxygen and first aid supplies. Dozens of lifesavers competing in the George Bass Surf Boat Race responded to nearest clubs to assist their colleagues. In the Super Surf Teams League Lily O’Sullivan was part of the N.S.W. Country ‘Dolphins’ Team and Anthea Warne was drafted into the NSW Hunter ‘Orcas’. NSW Country improved in the point score standing. The Gold Coast team, South Coast Makos took out round two from Sydney Northern Beaches ‘Rays’ and the Sunshine Coast Marlins. The final round will be held at North Wanda on January 17 - 18.

THE BURLEIGH Boardriders Single Fin Festival kicks off with the charity luncheon this Friday, and the big event, the Burleigh Boardriders Single Fin Classic ready to roll on Saturday and Sunday. It is a big weekend for one and all and it looks like they will once again have massive crowds on Burleigh Point to celebrate everything with a single fin and the good old days of the 1970’s. Last years winner, 2012 World Surfing Champion, Joel Parkinson is looking like the favourite, evidently he may or may not be surfing the same board that has taken him to victory twice before. A classic late 1970’s Al Byrne Channel bottom owned by his mate Clay, a Casuarina resident, and receipting of

one of the trophy boards as a thank you from Parko. There will be plenty of competition for Parko from local legends and former pro surfers, there is still a waiting list of over 40 surfers to get into the event, the field filling in under 90 minutes of the entries being released. The womens and junior fields will be full on as well, with big wave charger Felicity Palmateer joined by young ripper Pacha Light and a whole crew of ripping girls. This event is so popular they could fill the field 3 times over. If you are heading down over the weekend, parking will be very difficult, I would suggest public transport or other parking away from the venue. A lot of people are getting there very early to get the best spots on the point.

It will be busy, and keep an eye on your parking, the parking fines and parking cops are brutal at Burleigh.

Surfers Do their Bit for the Fires Surfers across the world are helping out with their time and goods, Joel Parkinson has a very busy week with quite a few functions to raise money for the cause. Various surfers like Lakey Peterson are raffling boards and donating money. Also Gold Coast Surfer, and now better now DJ “Fisher” or as a lot know him Paul Fisher, is coming back home and will be putting on a big concert to raise funds for the fire releif appeal. It is great seeing a community coming together. See you at the Single Fin, and I’ll catch you

Casuarina BMX bandits kicking goals By Jo Kennett TWO YOUNG Casuarina BMX riders have come second and third in their age group at the Nerang Nationals on the Gold Coast on Saturday and Sunday, January 4 and 5. It’s a competition that attracts international and national competitors, including the world champion and riders from Japan, Europe and New Zealand who are preparing to qualify for the Olympics. Isla-Mae and Rusty Killick had their heats on Saturday and mum Emma Killick said eight-year-old Rusty needed to qualify in the top 16 of the nine-year-old boys to go to the semi-finals. “He did and then he came second in the semi-final and then he came second in the final of the top eight riders,” Ms Killick said. “He was competing against the third best boy in Australia who came first but he beat the boy who was the best in Qld for that age group. “They had riders from NSW and Victoria as well as Qld in his age class. It was amazing. He was stoked to start the New Year on such a high.” Seven-year-old Isla-Mae went straight to the finals because the girls division did not have enough riders for heats. “She had to qualify in the top six in the finals which she did. She came third,” Ms Killick said. “Then she came third in the final. “This is the first year her age group actually raced for plates. “Up until age seven everyone gets a prize, so this is the first year where they are ranked on their positions. “She was absolutely ecstatic to get third because it was only the top three who got trophies. “They hadn’t ridden for about three weeks over Christmas because they train at Nerang and with the M1 roadworks it is a two-hour return trip. “We wish that the Tweed would get a little track, that would be awesome.” While the Killick kids are too young to go to the Olympics, they are going to compete in the National Series this year, they compete in different states.

“That’s to try to give them more experience,” Ms Killick said. “We love the travel as well; we get to see different places. “They also have the state development series for Qld they will compete in the Shootout Series for South East Qld and then back to New Zealand in Australia.

“Rusty went to the world championship in 2018 in Azerbaijan. “We flew into Abu Dhabi ten across to Baku where they also have a Formula One race.” Last year Isla-Mae Killick qualified for the BMX World Championships in Belgium but was unable to go.

Around the Wicket

Pottsville leads T20, Rosser scores ton for Cudgen

IT WAS Round two of the T20 LJ Hooker League on Saturday, January 4, with Pottsville now sitting on top of the competition after getting another two wins. Cudgen, after two wins in Round 1 in December, had a win and a loss and Murwillumbah lost both games. Pottsville captain Jayden Hoare said his team got off to an “okay” start in their first game against Lismore Workers at Seabreeze Oval. “We batted first. We lost a few wickets early, but our middle order rebuilt and put a good total on the board, we ended up with 6/167,” he said. “We thought if we bowled well enough we should be able to defend that total, so we were pretty happy with that and everyone contributed. “The bowling started off pretty well. We missed our spots a bit and didn’t play to our plan. “Then we got a couple of wickets. We knew once we got four or five wickets, we would be in the driver’s seat to take the win. “Wickets were shared around so it was pretty much a team effort.” The Pelicans played Tintenbar East Ballina next. “They won the toss and decided to bat,” Hoare said. “We got their big hitter out early, on the third ball before he got going so that was key. That was Ryan McCloy. “We got a couple earlier but then they put on a bit of a partnership. They ended up getting 171. “We went back into bat. We got off to a good start after four or five overs, Joe Allan got us off to a flying start, getting 35.

“Then we put a couple of little partnerships together, so the run rates kept increasing. “Then Ryan McCloy joined Jamie Bennett in the middle and they started putting in a few boundaries. “They got the rate down. We needed 27 off the last 12 balls. “We needed 12 off the last over and then Ryan hit a six and a four to finish the game, finishing on 39 not out.” Pottsville currently sit on top of both the T20 and Two-Day leagues. “Cudgen and Casino are both on six points each and we have two more rounds to go before the finals start,” Hoare told The Weekly. “We are feeling quite confident, but we still have a lot of improving. “We are winning games, but we are winning them tough at the moment. “We have had a lot of contributors; we aren’t just relying on one or two players and there is a good feeling in the group. Cudgen played Alstonville first at Cudgen. Alec Williams said Alstonville won the toss and batted first. “We had them early with three wickets, we were 3/10,” Williams said. “We had a few young lads bowl because we had a few players out at the Aussie titles, Caleb Ziebell, Anthony Kerchler and Pat Rosser and Jake and Sam Weir were away at junior rep games. “Alstonville ended up about 3/90 and we took a few wickets at the end. They finished at 9/148. “We went into bat. We lost two early. We were 2/20.

with Jo Kennett

Cricket Caleb Ziebell at the Toyota Australian Country Championships

“Connor Ziebell and I put on about 110 runs. Then we chased them down with about two overs to go. “We won pretty comfortably and played Casino next winning the toss and batting first. “Connor McDowell got 49. Pat Rosser made 121 not out. We finished at 2/229. “It was really good until we lost. “They ended up chasing it down. We didn’t bowl very well at all and they overtook us at 4/235. “We won’t have Caleb or Anthony back next week; they are still at Toowoomba so we will pretty well have the same side but hopefully get two wins instead of one. “We have more young blokes playing and everyone is enjoying that.

“We had a good crowd and the game was played in a great spirit.” Murwillumbah played Marist Brothers Lismore at home winning the toss and batting first. Rob Watt got the Panthers off to a solid start, scoring 48, while James Agius top scored on 53. The Panthers were 4/178 at the end of the 20 overs. Marist Bros went into bat and managed to overtake the Panthers at 4/179 with four overs left. The Panthers were up against Lennox Head next with Lennox winning the toss and going into bat. The Panthers might have been in with a shot if it hadn’t been for Adam Fisher who was finally taken out, bowled by Declan Brooks and

caught by Rob Watt just shy of his century on 97. Lennox finished on 4/239 with Brooks taking three wickets for 48 runs. Murwillumbah went in for the chase but couldn’t quite make the grade, despite a great effort from Agius at 76 not out. Another of the Fisher boys proved lethal, taking 4/26 with Murwillumbah ending the game at 9/170 at the end of the 20 overs. The Australian Country Championships are on in Toowoomba with our boys winning two of their five games. They are playing five one day games this week.
