Power Independence with Solar Batteries

Over half of all Australian homes will have batteries for energy storage in the next ten years... The new trend in solar power is to include battery storage and generate enough power for day and night use. With energy prices rising by 17% or more on the 1st of July, the intelligent option is to vote with your feet and begin to take control of your own power production with investment in the latest solar energy revolution.

Australia is way behind the world in the development of cheap, renewable energy with the coal and gas lobby blocking any new clean energy development. This is making Australian power costs among the highest in the world, leaving household to fend for themselves using solar power to offset rising electricity costs.

24 Hour Solar Power

With Feed in Tariffs now ridiculously low, there is no point left in sharing solar power with the grid. At 6 cents per kWh it is not equitable to export power when you have to buy your energy back later at 30 cents. Solar Power Battery Storage is the best way to beat the unfair electricity network and create energy independence today. 888 Solar Tek, a local solar company based in the Northern Rivers, is providing revolutionary new technology that slashes the cost of battery storage, providing 24 hour solar power to homes. With custom designs based on your energy use, they maximise the benefits of your investment and deliver a cost effective solution for your power needs. They offer a free energy assessment and are delivering hybrid and off-grid power systems that are much cheaper than buying from the grid.

888

The End of Support for Solar NSW Solar Bonus Ends This Year!

Government subsidies for solar export to the grid will end this year in NSW. If you are you one of the smart people in the Northern Rivers who are benefiting from the 60 cent per kWh export you will need to make plans for the coming changes. Payments under this plan expire at the end of 2016, leaving solar owners with 4 - 6 cents for each kWh exported after then. 20,000 homes in the Northern Rivers will have to install new meters to be able to use the power they now export entirely to the grid. 888 Solar Tek, your local hybrid and off-grid solar experts, have developed a smart migration plan, which will eliminate 80% or more of your ongoing power charges. They can install additional solar panels and battery storage now, to cover all of your daily energy use, slashing power charges.

The Truth About the

Every cent of the Solar Bonus generated by your existing system is collected right up until the end of the scheme, when both system are combined. Your new hybrid solar system allows greater independence and typically pays for itself in 3-5 years. 888 Solar Tek tailor the new solar system around your existing equipment and provide 12 months free monitoring and support. If you have very low electricity usage you may choose to go off the grid altogether to eliminate fixed supply charges that make up a large part of your bill. 888 Solar Tek have new technologies that can operate both on and off the grid. This makes staged transition to energy self-sufficiency cost effective and avoids costly equipment change-over.

REAL Cost of Solar Batteries...

The Gel-acid batteries were much cheaper to buy, lasted longer and could be configured in many different sizes to better match each home's energy use. They do not explode if over charged like Lithium Ion, are compatible with all inverter and charger systems and have a welldeveloped re-cycling program. Gel-acid batteries have been tried and tested over decades and, with fifth generation desulphation technology, are the lowest cost and best value battery available.

Many new battery technologies have leapt into the solar arena and early adaptors have had mixed reports about the real value of their performance. Not all that glitters is gold and some of the best PR campaigns have hidden the real cost of new solar batteries. The real test for new battery technologies is measured by their ability to deliver a cost per stored kWh below grid price. Every battery has a life span in the number of cycles of charge and discharge they can achieve before they lose capacity, with 60% being the standard for end of life. The cost of batteries divided by the cycle life gives the best measure of their value.

888 Solar Tek is the leading supplier of Gel acid batteries and hybrid and off-grid solar systems in the Northern Rivers and one of the few solar companies that offer custom battery sizing based on your power use. They retro-fit batteries to existing systems and provide cost benefit analysis based on your current and projected power costs. With local, personalised service and an ethos to always look after their customers' needs first, 888 Solar Tek are the number one choice for solar battery systems in the Northern Rivers.

Other than the special feeling you get from being the first boy with the new toy, all of the Lithium Ion batteries on offer fail to satisfy, none of them delivering stored energy for less than the cost of buying it direct from the grid. Some like the BYD Mini, featured in recent TV ads on the North Coast, cost over twice as much as buying power from the grid!

Why pay for electricity when it is cheaper to make your own?

888 Solar Tek is the top-selling retailer for solar battery systems in the Northern Rivers. We supply customised new or retrofit systems to match your power use - not a one size fits all package. You get personalised service with free 12 month system monitoring. The electricity grid is a huge monopoly that serves the large generators and retailers. Selling your solar power for 6Â˘ per kWh or less is unfair! Beat the network by generating and storing all of your own power now. Call us for free, honest advice before you buy anywhere else.

NSW Solar bonus scheme ends this year!

The Sanden EcoÂŽ Hot Water Heat Pump System use up to 78% less energy than conventional electric water heaters. Quicker and easier to install than solar, you get the savings right away. Sanden is the most efficient and eco-friendly hot water heat pump system on the market, offering up to 50% faster heat recovery than its competitors. Call us for all your Solar Hot Water needs on 02 6688 4480.

Only Motoma Gel-acid batteries with an Australian invented de-sulphation device which increases their lifespan by years, deliver a storage cost well below the grid price.

You may not of noticed yet, but your power bill just went up by over 17% on the 1st of July. We all know we are getting ripped off by the electricity networks and that it will only get worse. As the rage grows, many people are seriously looking at getting batteries for their solar systems to be more independent from the bloodsucking grid now.

A KINGSCLIFF resident said she was shocked when she witnessed two adorable rabbits being dumped at the coast last month which has prompted her to call for a stop to animal dumping across the Tweed Shire. “At a time when animal cruelty is front and centre lately in the media, it saddens me that I find myself writing this letter,” Mrs Richards, who wanted her first name withheld, wrote to The Weekly this week. “On July 4 at about 10.15am, I was taking my dogs to the park on the corner of Bilambil Road and Naponyah Road. I often see cars in the park with owners also walking their dogs and thought nothing this day when a person in a maroon car was there also. “I saw the vehicle drive off before me, so I thought nothing of it. However, after he left I saw on the grass were two dumped lap eared bunny rabbits, one cream with grey ears and one tri colour tan with dark ears. “This is such a cruel act, as the rabbits are unable to fend for themselves in the wild and could easily have been attacked by a fox or wild dog.

“They are in safe hands now but to the person that did this, you should be ashamed of yourself. “You could have taken them to the RSPCA or Rabbit Sanctuary. Animals are not disposable and deserve love, care and attention. Anyone with information regarding this can contact me at PO Box 1130 Kingscliff, 2487.” Meanwhile, several other residents have contacted The Weekly to highlight an increased problem with the number of guinea pigs around Chinderah, where several are believed to have been dumped and are now increasing in numbers. The Chinderah guinea pigs may also be attracting brown snakes which are increasing in numbers in tandem with the guinea pigs, which make the perfect prey for local serpents. YOUR THOUGHTS: Have you noticed any animals being dumped across the Tweed Shire? What do you think could be done to curb this behaviour? Send your letters and views to editor@theweekly.net.au

TWEED POLICE have charged a man after an alleged robbery at a shopping centre carpark in Banora Point on Monday, August 15. Police said it was about 6.30pm when a man allegedly approached people in a carpark on Fraser Drive asking for money. He was declined a number of times before approaching a third person where he became physical, allegedly grabbing a 29-year-old man on the shoulder and demanding his wallet. The man refused and was then allegedly punched

Devil’s fig a big problem for Tweed Valley My usual communication regards giant devil’s fig which at present is in flower and any help as regards its demise is appreciated. There was though, as I recall a movement towards the breaking up of rural “A” land. Many 40 hectare blocks do not offer any agricultural value and are subject to movement of invasive weed species. Many people moving to Murwillumbah would like a little rural block. Apparently this rule is a state government rule to protect land of rural value, good, but unless you can grow avocadoes or macadamias, which I can’t at Nobbys Creek. There is no rural endeavour that is apparent. I grow forest as a hobby but of no immediate value apart from the environment.

untrue - he merely had a hastily prepared desktop letter of opinion which was misrepresented by calling it a report and indeed it was subsequently withdrawn by its author (Mrs Brodhurst). In an effort to placate complaining residents, senior Council staff stated that any applicants would have to do a DA and that would include an Environmental Impact Study. The resulting EOI document clearly contradicts this, it states that it is possible for Council to provide a DA for the applicant or that even none might be needed at all. The EOI documentation itself is in contravention of the current Management Plan and Land Use mapping DA guidelines and requirements. This whole process has been a continuin problem from the start when I believe there was no timely community consultation. There has been much widespread community comment overwhelmingly against the kind of disruptive, divisive and exclusive use proposed. It even blocks the disabled use of the water when they come off the access ramp. I urge you to contact your Councillors to voice your opinion and ask them to reject these tenders for development on Jack Evans Boat Harbour. John Mync, Tweed Heads

Tweed Valley Weekly Locals Supporting Locals of elderly residents in the state people clearly expect council to advocate for better access to expanded health services. Over 40 per cent of people included “electricity/renewable energy” in their top five. The Tweed has more than 8000 homes with solar power – people expect a better example from council who could be advocating for fairer solar power rates whilst reducing emissions on its own $6 million annual power bill. Dominant issues also differed between coast and country - overdevelopment; featured in the coastal centre and; Environmental preservation; in the country areas. Clearly residents want the council to manage change so that the Tweed does not lose the things that make it a great place to live. The survey also raised the issue of rising rates with residents subsidising infrastructure for future development while the response to existing homelessness and excessive rents is so inadequate. Some fear that current policies will lead to a two tier society with young residents and workers displaced by winners from the overpriced Sydney market. A lot is at stake in the coming council election and people should not underestimate its potential to affect their lives. It is important that residents vote and number several preferences. Community Voice will soon be collating candidate’s responses to a questionnaire reflecting residents’ concerns – the results will be available soon.

We wish to stress that practical, compassionate and timely support is indeed available, without cost, in both Tweed Heads and Murwillumbah. We are concerned that this campaign could be seen as suggesting that such services are not being provided locally, an impression that may be heightened because of the public support of Federal MP Justine Elliot, who was connected with the previous organisation. In the past eight months our trained DFV workers have assisted around 440 women and children in the area to find safe temporary accommodation, and longer-term housing and life skills support where necessary. They work in liaison with government and non-government agencies, including Police. In the Tweed, there are now three fulltime staffed offices and a safe refuge, and six full-time workers, including three Aboriginal specialised DFV workers. There has also been an increase in supported accommodation with three more safe transitional properties. Trained workers are available to outreach to women in any location who may lack transport or not feel safe attending an office. This lobbying campaign seeks to mask the shortcomings of the previous service, which was terminated because it was not providing the level of protection and support to vulnerable clients required under the NSW Governmentbacked contract. For readers’ information, the number of the domestic violence intake line is 1300 355 305.

The Tweed needs a forward looking, progressive, respectful, consultative council that will protect the scenic, cultural and biodiverse values of the shire. When voting please consider the total value of your vote and make sure your preferences flow to ensure the outcome the Tweed needs. Especially examine the track record of current Councillors. Have they remained true to their word or mouthed platitudes and voted otherwise? Has the current crop sat in the middle maintaining the status quo and stymied progressive policies? There will be a big field to choose from so look at the commitment to the job and fiscal responsibility demonstrated by our Mayor Katie Milne whose record of introducing motions to improve our environment are unmatched. She needs to be reelected on the September 10. Cynthia Brook, Tweed

Big Trev not happy says Save Jack Evans Harbour A local free community newspaper is running an article this week, titled Fun Park bids refloated. In the article Mrs Paula Kloots owner of Endless Summer Hire the other company that submitted a tender for another AquaSplash style fun park on the JEBH, stated that Big Trev was excited about their proposal and that the Save Jack Evans Boat Harbour group did not respond to a call. Our group did not receive any communication from Mrs Kloots in any shape or form and I spoke to Big Trev last week about the Endless Summer Hire proposal and I would say he was not in the least bit excited. I will be showing Trev the article on his return.

Hot contender out of the running for council race

IN A SHOCKING turn of events Pryce Allsop, owner of All Home Products and Improvements, has missed the deadline to secure a place on the ballot for the September 10 Tweed Shire Council elections. Mr Allsop had invested significant time and resources into his council campaign and was backed by several fellow local business owners as well as local residents. “It’s was a devastating blow,” he told The Weekly on Friday, August 12, after the final deadline for candidates to submit their paperwork was on Wednesday, August 10. “We thought we had everything organised and ready to lodge, but there’s been some confusion with the final lodgement process and we were told by the NSW Electoral Commission that we unfortunately failed to secure a spot on the ballot.” Mr Allsop said he had waited patiently for more than four years watching council closely and developing his campaign ideas - only to be let down by paperwork. “We tried our best to understand what went wrong and it wasn’t any single person’s fault, it was just a mistake in communications which came at the worst possible time,” he said. According to the NSW Electoral Commission, potential candidates are

required to nominate a team or group. Once they have a team registered, the team is able to nominated a candidate who is added to the ballot for voters to select, however this step has not been taken for Mr Allsop before the deadline of August 10 at noon. “Failure to meet the noon deadline or the lodgement of incorrect paperwork, will void an applicant’s place on the ballot,” the NSW Electoral Commission’s website said. Mr Pryce said he wanted to thank everyone involved with his initial campaign. “I’d like to thank everyone for their

support and assistance in getting us this far,” he said. “I can’t confirm if I will be back to run in 2020, as four years is a long time to wait, but who knows.” The final ballot is organised in groups from Group A to Group L and Ungrouped.

Rock bottom prices for flights to Athens next year TWEED RESIDENTS will soon be able to purchase flights to Athens, Greece, from the Gold Coast Airport for as low as $420 on budget carrier Scoot Airlines, who are stepping up competition in the fiercely competitive international airline market. The flights would carry passengers to Scoots’ Singapore hub before travelling on to Athens for as low as $840 return and in one of the longest flights in the world to be operated by a low-cost carrier. Scoot, a wholly-owned unit of Singapore Airlines’ (SIA) Budget Aviation Holdings, announced on Tuesday, August 16, it planned to expand into Europe with four flights a week between Singapore and Athens with Boeing 787-8s. “Guests have requested us to fly to Europe for a while, and Scoot is excited to finally oblige,” Budget Aviation Holdings chief executive Lee Lik Hsin said in a statement. “Scoot has devoted much thought to configuring our cabin product and services to elevate and transform the low-cost travel experience, enabled by our world-first all787 Dreamlliner fleet, and this has positioned us well to mount our first ever long-haul flight between Asia Pacific and Europe.” The new flights begin in June 20 next year. Earlier this month Scoot’s Australia general manager Dennis Basham promised seats at $200 to $300 cheaper than what is generally available. Creating a whole new ball game for Gold Coast carriers. Scoot is also expected to offer three or four different European destinations, although the specifics on this are yet to be released. Scoot’s four-times-a-week service to Athens will use Boeing 787s. Please note: Scoot prices may be subject to taxes and other airlines fees.

THE LEGAL LIGHT! Horror accident leaves questions hanging I’ve missed out in a Will – what can I do? Two Sydney teenaged sisters have launched legal action against their family to try and secure $90 million left to them by their grandfather who died leaving a $2.5 billion estate. The sisters don’t want more money, but argue the Will doesn’t make “adequate provision” to ensure they receive their share as they are beneﬁciaries of two family trusts. The legal challenge centres on concerns the value of the inheritance held in trust will diminish over time. Wills expert Joshua Crowther of Stacks Law Firm said the case illustrates how people can claim against Wills, even if they are due to receive what most people would consider more than enough. Mr Crowther said that under NSW law if a person leaves assets as part of their estate it can be challenged by certain people under Section 57 of the Succession Act 2006 (NSW). “This automatically includes spouses and biological children but also includes stepchildren, carers and friends so long as they show they were members of the household and dependent on the deceased,” Mr Crowther said. “The latter category also need to prove what the law calls ‘factors warranting’ meaning they have to show that their relationship with the deceased was so close that the deceased had an obligation to provide for them in the estate.”

THE CAUSE of a horror head-on collision at Chinderah on Sunday, August 14, remains unknown as police continue to investigate the tragic road death of a 30-yearold Taiwanese national. Police said the woman, who died at the scene, was the driver of a white Nissan that crossed from southbound lanes, over the median strip and ploughed into oncoming traffic near a merging lane at Chinderah at about 12.30pm. Several news sources had inaccuractely reported that the deceased had been the passenger, however police confirmed she was driving the white Nissan. Police said they were in contact with the Taiwanese Government to inform the woman’s family of the tragic news. The Weekly chose to withhold the woman’s name during this process. Although several media reports stated the woman was not wearing a seatbelt and she was thrown from the vehicle upon impact. Police said they were conducting a mechanic inspection of the white Nissan to determine whether the vehicle was at fault and would not reveal whether the seatbelt was secured. Paramedics rushed to the scene and performed CPR on the student but she could not be revived. What caused the tragic crash is still unknown and forensic officers were this week attempting to interview another woman, who was in the car with the deceased driver and a woman in her 60s, who was driving the other car involved, both of whom are recovering in hospital. Tweed Local Area Command Officers will prepare a report for the Coroner once the crash investigation was completed. Her death was one of seven across three days on NSW roads which has now put the state on a deadly path towards a record road toll in 2016. Assistant Commissioner John Hartley, Commander of NSW Traffic & Highway Patrol Command, said that with the lives lost over the weekend, the risks that are on our roads should be obvious to all road users.

“To have this many deaths in just three days should serve as a warning as to what can go wrong on our roads. There is little doubt that speed, fatigue, drink or drug driving, not wearing a seatbelt or proper helmet, or distraction by a mobile phone contribute to crashes on our roads. “To have 252 lives lost in 227 days so far in 2016, suggests that personal responsibility is failing many road users. “That is 252 lots of families and friends that are suffering the loss of losing a loved one on our roads. “Operation Towards Zero continues and there will be more police on our roads making sure that those not taking personal responsibility for their actions are accountable. “Among results over the weekend, officers from Operation Towards Zero conducted Random Breath Tests on over 600 drivers, issued 59 speeding and 125 other traffic infringements. “Our messages are simple: - If you’ve been drinking or have used drugs, your ability to respond when driving is severely diminished. - If you’re speeding, you risk crashing or running off the road when taking evasive action. - If you’re distracted by a mobile phone, or are driving tired, you’re not concentrating on the road, putting yourself and others at great risk. -If you’re not wearing a seatbelt or proper helmet your chances of survival in a crash are minimal at best. - If you’re walking or cycling you need to make sure you’re wearing bright visible clothing and sharing the road with others safely.” “Sadly, many people have failed to follow these messages so far this year, which is costing lives,” Assistant Commissioner Hartley said. Police are urging anyone with information in relation to this incident to call Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000 or use the Crime Stoppers online reporting page: https://nsw. crimestoppers.com.au/ Information will be treated in the strictest of confidence. We remind people they should not report crime information via Facebook and Twitter pages.

But Mr Crowther, a Law Society Accredited Specialist in Wills and Estates, says this just allows them to commence a claim. Whether they are successful will depend on the strength of relationship, size of the estate, intentions of the testator (the person who wrote the Will) and most importantly – the ﬁnancial need of the claimant. “We’ve seen over the last 18 months that courts are less inclined to make provision for claimants, especially adult children, although this depends on subjective facets of each case. “It can also depend on legal arguments put for the claimant and the sympathies of the judge hearing the case if it gets to court, where it is notoriously difﬁcult to predict the outcome.

Mr Crowther advised anybody thinking of challenging a Will to get expert legal advice before they embark on a legal challenge that can be costly without achieving the desired result.

Tweed remembers our Vietnam Veterans THIS WEEK marks 50 years since 108 Australian soldiers from Delta Company, 6th Royal Australian Regiment, took on and defeated a force of 2,500 North Vietnamese Army regulars and Viet Cong fighters. The year was 1966 and the day is remembered as The Battle of Long Tan, which is today (Thursday, August 18) and since 1987 has also been commemorated as Vietnam Veterans’ Day. The Weekly recently caught up with several war veterans including Vietnam Veterans, one of whom was involved in The Battle of Long Tan, to gain a greater insight into a soldier’s life after war and the often terrible toll war leaves behind. Their memories are laden with the relentless horrors of the battlefield and while many do not carry visible wounds, it’s the trauma and damage inside a person’s mind or body that shapes their lives. RSL Pottsville & District Sub-Branch Honorary Secretary Mark Radisich said it was important that Tweed residents acknowledge the brave people, who played their role in one of the bloodiest battles in Australia’s post-World War history. This year the RSL Pottsville & District Sub-Branch will hold an evening ceremony

tonight (Thursday, August 18) from 6pm, to commemorate those who served during the Vietnam War. “Those attending are invited to assemble at the Pottsville Beach Cenotaph at Anzac Park on Tweed Coast Road before the service which will commence at 6pm,” Mr Radisich said. “Wreaths will be laid. Local veterans, current and former defence personnel are encouraged to participate.” Mr Radisich said that while many people were beginning to understand and acknowledge the great sacrifices made during the Vietnam War, the posttraumatic stress endured by soldiers past and present remains one of Australia’s lessor known enigmas. “While many people would understand the horrors of war, it’s the returning soldiers that have to carry this immense burden often for years without letting go or seeking support,” he said. “I’d like to encourage veterans past and present to reach out and talk to fellow local veterans groups to help them with the healing process.” Anyone wanting to find out more about local veterans clubs can contact Mr Radisich at the RSL Pottsville & District Sub-Branch on 0414 328 274.

One of only two memorials allowed by the Vietnamese Government remains to this day at Long Tan.

Tweed War Veterans Jim Murray (WWII), Derek Sims (Vietnam War), Philip Cheeseman (Vietnam War), Kevin Sharpey (Vietnam War), Ian Campbell (Vietnam War), Allan Martin (Vietnam War), Rob Dunlop (Vietnam War), Ron Bossink (East Timor), Don Gazzard (East Timor) and Peter Hallen (Vietnam War). The veterans run a social gym club at Murwillumbah Fitness and have encourage other veterans to get involved by phoning the fitness club on (02) 6672 3799.

Murwillumbah Hospital Auxiliary celebrates 90th THE BIG-HEARTED efforts of the Murwillumbah Hospital Auxiliary were recognised during the Auxiliary’s annual general meeting and 90th birthday celebrations on Monday, August 15.

Tweed Byron Health Service Group executive director Bernadette Loughnane was also invited to speak and heaped praise on the Auxiliary. Mrs Loughnane thanked the members and the committee for their continued support of the hospital to purchase equipment ranging from items such as wheel chair cushions, ice machine, dopplers, two bladder scanners and a tonometre.

Glaucoma is an unfortunately insidious disease which is the leading cause of irreversible blindness in the world. Although, with appropriate treatment loss of vision can be completely avoided in most people. Glaucoma is caused by an increase in pressure inside the eye which causes damage to the optic nerve and subsequent loss of vision, initially peripherally. Without treatment this eventually affects the central vision and causes blindness. Modern glaucoma treatment is very successful and avoids significant loss of vision in most people. Many patients require only eyedrops to reduce their eye pressure while severe cases

Glaucoma is a strongly inherited disease and anyone with first degree relatives with Glaucoma should have yearly screening for glaucoma with an Optometrist or Ophthalmologist. Because your eye has no internal pressure senses glaucoma screening with a trained eyecare specialist is essential.

Creating a COME AND JOIN TWEED world full of LITTLE ATHLETICS friendships

The People You Meet...

>>>

with Fran Rabbitts PRESIDENT OF the Friendship Force Tweed Valley Ludmilla Bischof and her members, the world is their oyster with 63 countries and 16,000 hosts worldwide to choose from. It’s a gateway to travel both here and overseas and be hosted by other Friendship Force hosts. This opens up not only local travel but many exotic places overseas, it’s a smorgasbord of travel opportunities. On these excursions Friendship Force members regard themselves as citizen ambassadors and are committed to peace through understanding. And what better way is there than being accepted into their homes, sharing food in their home, listening to their hopes and also helping out with small projects as a family would. Many long standing friendships have

between the Force clubs and a way of life for some. “I’ve been to Ecuador, Galapagos, Brazil, Peru, Russia and Azerbaijan. Now I’m packing for the far north of Canada to see the northern lights, maybe I’ll travel on snow sledges and hope to see bears, wolves and lots of deer,” said Ludmilla. Destinations are suggested by club members and chosen by popular vote. Each club has an exchange Director and all traveling members are required to have medical clearances and insurance. Each exchange is unique and can be flexible, the members being hosted are sometimes part of a large group and visitors are allocated hosts. Circumstances permitting short stays are usual especially overseas and most hosts will have an active program showing visitors around

resulted after a home host exchange. Ludmilla Bischof President of the Friendship Force Tweed Valley said, “I love travelling with a group of like-minded people who become friends. We regard travelling as a bridge between different cultures. It’s made me realise how small the world is and how important it is to build friendships with people irrespective of race and religious beliefs. We are all trying to survive in a rapidly changing world and sharing and experiencing their daily life at a grass roots level with the hosts gives an insight into their lives and cultures. But the best thing are the friendships and legacy of goodwill, because when ordinary people share daily life experiences, national boundaries and ideologies are put aside.” “The organisation was founded in America about 30 years ago and now is in 63 countries. Home hospitality visits by groups are negotiated by the clubs for both local and overseas exchanges when guests can stay with the host members, there’s no payment - it’s a personal arrangement between them. There are many exchanges

the local sites. Mostly these exchanges are negotiated by the Exchange Director. One doesn’t have to be part of a larger group – last week Tweed Valley President Ludmilla arranged her own homestay for Canada through Friendship Force International on the internet. For those interested in diverse cultures and a non tourist genuine experience the Friendship Force is really worth investigating. The members are from varied backgrounds tending towards professional and teaching, mostly retired with a big bucket list. Members meetings are twice monthly for updates on groups coming in and groups going out and planning ahead. This great travel concept has opened up the world for many who previously lacked the confidence to go it alone. Being a member allows you to have input and nominate destinations and also to socialise with other travel minded people and it’s for both singles and couples. Pin up a world map, close your eyes, throw a dart and see if there’s a Friendship Force to exchange with. Bon Voyage.

TOENAIL CUTTING IN YOUR OWN HOME

Yes ... We Come to You! Professional and affordable foot care to you in the comfort of your own home.

“Servicing Seniors for 12 years” The Toenail People Australia: Delivering Happy Feet for a Happy Life Toenails are often the last thing we think to care about as we grow older. Attention naturally falls to ‘bigger issues’ such as joints, illnesses and mental health. However unloved toenails can affect our mobility, the ability to exercise, and can cause greater issues that reduce overall independence. According to research, 1 in 3 older people have trouble reaching their own toes making it nearly impossible for them to care for their feet as they age. Melissa Harrison, Owner of ‘The Toenail People - Australia’, says reasons for why people are unable to cut their toenails vary but she is are acutely aware of how quickly improper toenail care can affect someone’s wellbeing. “It’s very easy to overlook those things hidden away in slippers” says Melissa, “our teams see firsthand how if an older person finds it too painful to walk they will simply walk less. This is a snowballing issue that can be prevented with proper care. We recommend nail cutting every six weeks to help to keep you mobile and independent longer”.

Another big toe issue Melissa finds common is one of awkwardness. “People can be a little embarrassed when they first call but there is nothing undignified about taking care of yourself or increasing your capacity for independent living. Our incredible team of respectful professionals are fully qualified, screened and insured. We follow the strictest hygiene and sterilisation practices, plus we deliver happy feet with a smile - what’s not to like about that?”

Tweed locals help homesless 1300 227 223 man and his best mate “King” Smile Right...Shine Bright!!!

A HEART-FELT appeal to help a homeless man and his dog King at Palm Beach has resulted in a flurry of support from Tweed locals including an online Go Fund Me campaign that’s expected to reach more than $3000. Several residents had posted on social media that they had noticed the man (whose name has been withheld) on the street and decided to purchase him some dog food for his best mate King (pictured below). Kelly Burness told The Weekly that Laura Keogh had originally posted an appeal to the public to provide the man with a blanket, after it was revealed he was using his only blanket for his dog. The man was extremely grateful for the support and the story has since gone viral across the Tweed Shire, with a fresh bid to help the man back on to his feet. “The community has rallied together in the past 48 hours and we’ve been amazed by the support,” Mrs Keogh told The Weekly. “I just happen to notice the man had a German Shepherd, and I thought I’ve got the same dog so I thought why not buy some food for him and the dog.

“It was at this time that I notice his only blanket was being used for his dog King and that’s when I thought to appeal to the public to help him out.” The story has since resulted in a range of donations from across NSW and QLD, with people now being asked to donate their items to other charities as the man is unable to take any more items. “He had previously owned a van, although he had crashed the van and was injured,” she said. Mrs Burness said in her latest post that the man would like to thank the community for their support. “I’ve just been up to see him and let him know about the go fund me page that Christine has started for him. He was very humbled,” Mrs Burness said. “I also offered to take him to the hospital to get checked out and look after King while he was there. “He is very tired and overwhelmed by the community’s support. His love for his dog is very clear. He asked me to thank everyone.” The Go Fund Me link: https://www. gofundme.com/2k9npn9h

Big push to eradicate invasive weeds AN INVASIVE weed program to reverse the devastating spread of Cat’s Claw Creeper along the Oxley River has entered its second phase with a fresh call for landowners to get involved. Wollumbin Environmental Services is leading the campaign with funding from the NSW Environmental Trust of $100,000 over the three-year program, in partnership with Tweed Landcare and Tweed Shire Council. Wollumbin Environmental Services member Sam Dawson said the project has now completed its first year and he’s calling for new Oxley River landowners to get involved. “The project has employed up to ten people and there’s already roughly five hectares of Cat’s Claw Creeper cleared,” Dr Dawson said. “I’d like to call on other Oxley River landholders to get in touch with Wollumbin Environmental Services and arrange an appointment to continue to combat this invasive and destructive weed.” The project is sponsored by Tweed Landcare Inc, who

have sponsored several similar projects across the shire. “There has been over 100 hours of volunteer work from landholders,” Mr Dawson said. “The project aims to stop the spread of Cat’s Claw Creeper and improve conditions for indigenous rainforest species on the Oxley River. “We are looking for people who are interested in Round two of the project to contact us, they must live in the Oxley River catchment/Eungella.” Mr Dawson said that although it was a difficult weed to remove, the progress so far had been strong and the fight was just starting. “With more involvement from landowners and a community push to reverse the destruction these weed cause, we can make a real difference to the environment across the Tweed Shire, starting with the Oxley River. “I’d also like to give Tweed Shire Council a special mention for their partnership in making this program happen.” Anyone wanting to find out more about Wollumbin Environmental Services or Environmental Trust funding can phone Dr Dawson on: 0474 127 223 or (02) 6672 7765.

What’s a Cat’s Claw Creeper?

Native to tropical America, cat’s claw creeper (see above) is an aggressive climber that was once used as an ornamental plant in Queensland gardens. In the wild, cat’s claw creeper can smother native vegetation and change soil chemistry. It is now found in many parts of Queensland. Cat’s claw creeper has in recent years found a footing in the Northern Rivers having spread down from Southern Queensland. The creeper is spread largely by water and wind, but tuberous roots are also spread by floods and humans.

What’s a Devil’s Fig?

Wollumbin Environmental Services member Sam Dawson with some of the huge efforts to remove Cat’s Claw Creeper

Giant devil’s fig originated from Central America and is a class three declared noxious weed on the NSW North Coast. A member of the Solanaceae family, it is a tall perennial shrub, three metres to four metres high, with a similar growth habit to wild tobacco. Flowering from autumn to spring, it reproduces from seed usually spread by birds and bats. It rapidly invades disturbed sites; for instance, where the ground was recently bulldozed (read more below).

GIANT DEVIL’S FIG Is a highly invasive noxious weed that is on the march in the Tweed

Giant Devil’s Fig is a highly invasive noxious weed that is on the march in the Tweed. It takes over creek banks and other natural areas, forming impenetrable thorny thickets that block access to livestock and people alike.

Living Life To The Full Stages are getting higher and higher, and I’m getting older and older. Iggy Pop ADVERTISEMENT

Mr. Property Services’ goal is to provide “a home for every budget” Mr. Property Services was established in 2008 to offer a professional and dedicated service at reasonable rates to the ‘Buyers’ and ‘Sellers’ of manufactured homes located in Lifestyle Villages and Residential Parks in the Tweed Valley and the southern tip of the Queensland Gold Coast. New Laws commenced on the 1st November 2015 The Law applying to homeowners in Caravan Parks, Residential Parks and Manufactured Home Estates has changed effective from the 1/11/2015. The Residential (Land Lease) Communities Act 2013 has replaced the Residential Parks Act 1998. One of the significant changes that the Residential Land Lease Communities Act 2013 has introduced concerns “Additional Occupants” moving into a home. Legislation now recognises the changes occurring in the make-up of families. New provisions make it easier for additional occupants to move into a home. Carers, Partners, Spouses now have an automatic right to live with the home owner. The park operator cannot unreasonably refuse consent for other people to move into a home. The Tweed Residential Parks Homeowners Association can offer advice and information during the cooling off periods by contacting TRPHA President – Tom George, Phone (02)

Prevent Obesity with Healthier Choices

Australia is now the most obese nation in the world, and the problem is only getting worse. While there are a number of factors that contribute to Australia’s obesity crisis, the lack of vegetables in our diet plays a huge part in the matter, alongside our weakness for fast food.

Most Australians no doubt fall into the trap of getting fast food night after night because they’re time-poor and don’t have the energy to cook a healthy and wholesome meal after work or a busy day. Australians make a staggering 51.5 million visits to fast food outlets each month because it’s cheap and convenient… but it’s time to break this habit and seek out healthier options. The longer you wait to change these unhealthy habits, the sooner it could lead to serious illness - as excess weight is a

major risk factor for cardiovascular disease, Type 2 diabetes and some cancers. While regular exercise is also beneﬁcial, weight loss generally comes down to 75% diet and 25% exercise - so eating the right food is more than half the battle. Start making the right choices today to look after your health for years to come. Gourmet Meals can deliver calorie controlled meals straight to your door at a competitive price so you can stop eating junk and start working towards a better you. Our great tasting meals are nutritionally balanced, packed with loads of vegetables and taste just like home cooking.

Ignoring your hearing loss? New research shows “Use It or Lose It!”

Over 40s: The Need for Hearing Aids is On Par with the Need for Glasses It’s ironic that as we get older, we generally get wiser and more content, but our sight and hearing can deteriorate, often slowly enough that we don’t notice that the quality of these senses is considerably different than when we were younger. You may be aware that your sight needs regular check-ups, but perhaps you consider hearing problems to be the realm of rock stars and the elderly- and definitely elderly rock stars! The surprising reality is, however, for Australians over forty the need for hearing aids is almost on par with the need for glasses. What did you say? Even a mild hearing loss can really affect the clarity of sounds and daily communication. Sometimes identifying that your hearing may not be what it used to be occurs in specific situations, like hearing someone talking to you when there is background noise. Or you might find that you are turning up the volume on the TV, or often asking someone to repeat themselves. Use it, or Lose it Sadly research shows that the longer a person leaves their hearing loss unattended, the poorer the hearing becomes over time. Known as auditory deprivation, the brain loses its ability to process certain sounds clearly. Unfortunately hearing falls into the ‘use it or lose it’ category. But by using a hearing aid, you can continue to stimulate the brain with the full spectrum of sounds and pitches, meaning that these areas of the brain remain useful and active. Jelly bean size, but packed with benefits The development of digital technology is perhaps the most significant advancement in hearing aids in recent years. Not only has it resulted in improved sound quality, but it means that all

hearing aids can be uniquely programmed to match an individual’s hearing levels. Hearing aids have also become fully automatic, meaning that you can insert the device and forget about it. If you have a busy lifestyle and are often in social environments, you will need a higher level of noise reduction than someone who spends most of their time quietly at home. Yes the hearing aid, as tiny as it is, has benefited from millions of dollars worth of international research and technology breakthroughs. But more importantly it can return your hearing to levels that you may have experienced 1020 years ago. Hearing specialist: Don Hudson What now? If you feel you are having difficulty hearing, the best thing to do is book a free hearing assessment with a qualified hearing specialist.

there will be a formal “reading of the Will”. This is an urban myth and it is rarely carried out in modern times. The categories of people who are entitled to a copy of the Will are as follows:-

• Anyone named in the will (whether or not they are named as a beneﬁciary).

• Anyone who is named or referred to in an • •

• • • • •

earlier will as a beneﬁciary (even if they are not named in the latest will). A parent, guardian, spouse, de facto partner or child of the deceased. A parent or guardian of any child referred to in the will or who would be entitled to a share of the deceased’s estate if they had died intestate (i.e. without leaving a will). Any person who would be entitled to a share of the estate if the deceased had died intestate. Any person (including a creditor) who has or may have a claim at law or in equity against the estate. Any attorney who held an enduring power of attorney given by the deceased. Any person or entity who had formal management of the deceased’s aﬀairs (e.g. Public Trust). Any person entitled to bring a claim against the estate for provision (normally such a person would be covered by the categories above).

If you fall into any of the above categories, you should attempt to obtain a copy through the usual means but if this fails, write a formal letter of demand in accordance with the relevant section of the legislation. If they refuse to provide you with a copy of the Will, you should seek legal advice in relation to bringing an appropriate application to obtain a copy of the Will (if the Executor has unreasonably refused a request resulting in Court proceedings, costs of the Court application could be awarded against the Executor personally). In many cases Executors who refuse to provide a copy of the will or details of the estate assets have something to hide. They may have illegally converted assets to their own use or simply don’t want to give someone their fair share of the estate. Most experienced lawyers who act in these matters will often accept claims on a ‘no win no fee basis’. We recommend people obtain legal advice as soon as possible as there are time limits for bringing claims (6 months from date of death to give notice in QLD and 12 months in NSW). Quite often the most diﬃcult part is getting a copy of the will!

For any questions please telephone Donna at Attwood Marshall Lawyers on 1800 621 071 As long as you fall into one of these categories, or email info@attwoodmarshall.com.au.

1. Firstly, could you please outline who would be a suitable candidate for The Athena Project? We are looking for regional women who have had initial success in the screen industry as writers and/or directors. The applicants may have written and / or directed a drama or fiction that has been broadcast, or a short film that has been selected for festival screenings or an online drama or fiction piece that has attracted an audience of more than 1 million. 2. What’s the project consist of? And what experience will it give participants? The Athena Project includes a public forum on screen industry careers for women followed by a 2 day residential for selected participants, where they will be given direction and advice on their screen industry career plans. The selected participants will receive individual tailored advice from some of Australia’s leading female filmmakers as well as a creative industry business advisor. 3. What’s the current state of the film industry across the Tweed Shire? And how is it expected to change or grow over the coming years? Data collected by Screenworks over many years (from local and non-local production companies) show the annual local regional screen-related spend in the Northern Rivers is approximately $20 million in local economic benefit, with over 600 jobs per year being created in the region. A large portion of that can be attributed to filming I’m a Celebrity Get me Out of Here in the Tweed Shire. Screenworks continues to work with Australian

production companies and Screen NSW to attract more on going productions to the region as well as assisting local creatives with the development of local stories and productions. 4. Where can people find out more? Details on The Athena Project are available from Screenworks website www. screenworks.com.au 5. When will the names be announced?

We look forward to working with talented female writers and directors to help them progress their careers.

We are delighted to have support from some of Australia’s most admired female filmmakers as guest speakers including director Gillian Armstrong (Women He’s Undressed, My Brilliant Career), Director of Scripted at Matchbox Pictures Debbie Lee (The Family Law, Glitch) and Northern Rivers based multi-award winning director Cate McQuillen (dirtgirlworld)

New Strata Laws, what you need to know NEW STRATA Laws into force in NSW on November 30 and are expected eventually to be adopted, according to reports from Bannerman and the Property Council of Australia. About five new strata schemes are registered each day in NSW alone and the number of people living, working in or owning a strata is expected to increase from about 25 per cent to half of Sydney’s population over the next 25 years. The trend is similar across the rest of the country. More than 40 per cent of all new homes in WA are strata title, according to the Property Council of Australia. “Strata schemes are effectively small communities where the activities and attitudes of residents can have a significant impact on the satisfaction of others,” according to the NSW government We set out in this article a brief overview of some of the likely impacts these amendments will have on Owners Corporations and property rights for lot owners. Impact on Owners Corporations: • Reducing “proxy farming” by limiting the number of proxy votes any one person can hold. • Modernising Owners Corporation meetings by allowing Owners Corporation to provide for electronic attendance and voting. • Allowing for the nomination of a non-voting tenant’s representative for stratum’s which have more than 50 per cent of the lots being rented. Impact on lot owner property rights • Empowering 75 per cent of lot owners to agree a collective sale plan for the entire strata regardless of objections from the remaining 25 per cent (but subject to the approval of the NSW Land and Environment Court). • Determining that any Owners Corporation consent to lot owners to carry out minor renovations (e.g. renovating kitchens, floors and reconfiguring walls) cannot be unreasonably withheld. • Restricting occupancy limits under by-laws to a two adults per bedroom, per lot basis. Building Defects Bond Scheme: Although November 30, 2016, is the key date, enforcement of the building defects bond scheme (including mandatory defect inspection reports and lodgement of building bonds) has been delayed until July 1, 2017. As new Australian Standards for inspections of group title buildings will be finalised by then, the NSW Government has decided to provide industry and other stakeholders with additional time to adequately prepare. Given current estimates by the NSW State Government that 50 per cent of the NSW population will either be living or working in strata properties, understanding these reforms is crucial for both developers and investors to

capitalise on opportunities both now and in the future. Included in the new legislation is the allowance for an entire strata scheme to be sold if 75 per cent, rather than 100 per cent, of owners agree to the sale. While the changes may make it easier for strata sites to be sold and redeveloped, it won’t make it a free for all. If 75 per cent of owners in a strata agreement do agree to the sale, it will then be referred to the Land and Environment Court to ensure the process has been done correctly and all owners are receiving the appropriate level of compensation. Balcony barbecues will not be banned, but pets still can be, as a raft of contentious strata rules is revealed in the new strata regulations to be released on Friday August 19. The regulations – a dense mixture of rigid rules and optional by-laws – provide the details of how the reformed NSW strata laws, due to come in on November 30, will work. They propose by-laws on pets and smoking as well as hard and fast rules on everything from electing tenant representatives to removing cars that have been dumped on common property. For instance, while allowing pets is still optional, there are two by-law routes owners corporations can take. In the more laissez-faire proposal, pet owners only have to tell their strata committee that they have an animal within 14 days of acquiring their new friend. In the other option, strata committees can refuse permission for pets, provided their decision is not “unreasonable”. However, they will now have to give reasons in writing if they do reject pets. And residents in otherwise pet-free buildings who claim their little friend is an assistance animal, and therefore legally must be allowed, can now be asked to prove it fits the description as per the Disability Discrimination Act. One model by-law forbids smoking of tobacco or “substances” on common property while an alternative allows smoking in a designated area – but both have riders that you mustn’t let your smoke drift into other people’s homes. Balcony puffers beware. On the subject of offensive fumes, the words barbecue, barbie or BBQ don’t even rate a mention. So, as predicted in these pages, the much-hyped but highly unlikely ban on balcony barbecues disappears in a puff of bacon, beef and barramundi smoke. As if the difference between regulations and by-laws wasn’t confusing enough, the regulations contain two sets of by-laws – mandatory ones for schemes registered before 1996 and much more exotic and interesting ones that would have to be adopted by post-1996 schemes, including new buildings, before they had any effect.

Countering public fears, mainly that all schemes would now have to allow pets, the Department of Innovation and Better Regulation stresses that the post-96 model bylaws are not mandatory; they are suggestions that either have to be registered along with the strata plan in new buildings or adopted by owners at a general meeting in an existing block. The pre-96 schemes’ bylaws are compulsory but they are a much more conservative set of rules. For example, they retain the “no pets” default by-law that says you can’t have a pet unless you get written permission from the committee, rather than the new model by-laws that say you may have a pet unless permission is refused. But there are hard and fast rules that apply to everyone in strata, and many are controversial. The vexed question of proxy farming – a single owner or small minority gathering proxy votes to retain control of a building – raises its power-hungry head again. Owners will be allowed to hold one proxy vote in schemes under 20 lots and 5 percent of the total vote in larger blocks. However, it was pointed out that once proxy holders had reached their limits the rest of the people who wanted to vote for them would be disenfranchised. So the regulation was tweaked to allow owners to write in the name of an alternate if their original choice has used up their allocation. Even the method for electing your newly named strata committee has changed (the word “executive” has been removed, presumably to head off any sense of entitlement). You vote by writing the names of the people you support on a blank piece of paper which you then have to sign and date. Pre-printed voting slips containing only the chairman or anyone else’s team are a thing of the past. A small but significant change to the method for electing a tenant means renters can choose one of their own to chair the meeting convened to elect their representative, rather than the chairman of the Owners Corp as was initially proposed.

Current Current Current Current Tweed Local teacher Greens No. Liberal Tweed Shire 2 candidate candidate Toni Tweed Shire Tweed Shire Shire Councillor Michael Councillor Warren Polglase MacNamara Mayor Katie Councillor Angie Gittus Zuschke Carolyn Byrne Barry Longland Milne

ONE OF the hottest topics across the Tweed Shire at the moment is the proposed Rail Trail and re-purposing of the Murwillumbah rail line. While many local carry strong opinions on this topic, The Weekly spoke with several council candidates to get their views. Question: Do you believe the rail line should be preserved for future train use? Or, would you like to see the rail line removed to make way for the proposed rail trail? Read their answers as well as their introduction statements from last week.

“I think the rail corridor needs to be retained in public

hands but   recognise the provision of a train on the track may be a long way off  and would consider it a good solution for the community to use it as a  shared bike, walking tourist trail.  The most important thing for me is the corridor is kept in public ownership.”

“

Tweed Labor supports a Rail Trail in our Shire. The Rail Trail is a key component of Tweed Labor’s Action Plan to drive the local economy by creating jobs. The Rail Trail will provide a much needed boost to local businesses in the Shire. The expected influx of people to the region wanting to use the Rail Trail would see an increase in tourism, the establishment of new businesses and greater employment opportunities. Tweed Labor as part of its Action Plan to drive the local economy by creating jobs, protecting the environment and supporting the community, fully supports the efforts of the Northern Rivers Rail Trail organisation. The Rail Trail will be beneficial for the Tweed economy, the environment and a great community asset for our Shire. A vote for Tweed Labor on 10 September is a vote for the Rail Trail.”

“

I am looking to the future but focused on the present. We need to ensure that Council manages our money wisely to improve our roads and to keep rates manageable. We need sustainable growth. Supporting new business is key including green industries to increase jobs and improve tourism opportunities. Affordable housing is a major concern in our region and with jobs on the decline, the economic climate a challenge and more and more people sleeping on our streets, we need to ensure our planning for the future accommodates for everyone. Development is needed in our region for jobs and opportunity. We need to ensure we don’t pollute our environment in the name of development, so I believe that balance and sustainable growth are imperative to this decision making process. Lobby state funding to improve our roads. Accountability to reduce rate rises. Support business start-ups and improve business opportunities. Encourage farming and improve tourism. We need to get back to the basics – Rates; Roads and Rubbish. Let’s get things done.”

“

I am a mother of two, a nurse, a student and an active member of my community. Although new to Cabarita I’ve lived in the Northern Rivers my whole life and am here because of my great love for our beautiful region. I studied nursing at Southern Cross University and have worked as a Registered Nurse in many of the public hospitals in the region, now based in the Emergency Department of Murwillumbah

Hospital. There I am the secretary of our local branch of the New South Wales Nurses and Midwives Association, advocating for the safety of staff and patients when issues arise. I am doing Post Graduate study in Public Health and Tropical Medicine and have a particular interest in the effects of climate change on the health of vulnerable communities. Alongside my studies and work, I’ve volunteered my time and skills to provide humanitarian assistance where required. Volunteering in the Philippines after the typhoon in 2013 and in Nepal in 2015 after the earthquake. At present I’m preparing for a trip to Kiribati to deliver teaching to nurses in the Tungaru Hospital. With a mantra of ‘think globally – act locally’ I believe that local council has the ability to provide the balance needed for sustainable development, ensuring a safe future for our region economically, environmentally and socially.”

“

Everyone will agree that the Tweed is one of the most beautiful and picturesque places on earth and those that call it home are passionate about the area. We live here because we love it! I am passionate about our community, its cultural diversity and its uniqueness. Bringing us all together at the Tweed’s longest dinner party at Speed on Tweed or at Tweed Foodie Fest has always brought me joy as it is the people of the Tweed that give the place heart! Know body wants to pave paradise and put up a parking lot or build high rises that shadow our beaches. Our environment is diverse, delicate and vulnerable. The Tweed that we live in today affords us this incredible lifestyle and it is because development throughout the Shire has been managed with particular care for the environment and that needs to continue. The predicted growth for the Shire needs to be managed through planning in consultation with the community to enable Council to provide the infrastructure, roads, affordable housing and business opportunities for all of us to continue the lifestyle we enjoy. I am running with the Tweed Liberals in this campaign to ensure that Tweed does not miss out and have a voice in Sydney/ Canberra and to bring professionalism and leadership to Council. Our Team has an action plan to deliver positive outcomes for the Tweed. We need a professional, cohesive Council that works collaboratively towards a brighter future for the Tweed.”

“

I believe the rail corridor should be preserved for future public use and ownership. The line is in need of significant repair and any future use of the rail needs to be considered with respect to the costs. The rail trail allows people the opportunity to enjoy the scenic landscape that this corridor offers and is a great opportunity for ecotourism, business opportunities and job creation; whilst keeping the asset in public ownership. The uniqueness of the Tweed, we are not a Gold Coast and we are not Byron. We are proud to be the Tweed. We need to focus on the environment issue, but being responsible enough to understand the environment cannot care for itself and funds must come from somewhere. Having people in stable work, gives them opportunity to invest in housing and take ownership of their local areas. We have some amazing local produce and small business operators doing so much to promote this industry. How great is it to go to a local farm stall and pick your own or buy local produce. These opportunities

Sharing stories of the people of the Tweed. Everyone has a story to tell and a story to hear. Development must be managed in accordance with the legislation and community guidelines. Infrastructure is paid for by the developer and ultimately the consumer pays for these costs. It is important to manage the about of litigation associated with these developments and seek outcomes that have the better results for our community. We cannot stunt development as this creates a false economy and unaffordability. Each development must be judge on the merits of the DA. Change is occurring every day in this Shire, it is important to manage change and also appreciate what we enjoy, others also have a right to enjoy. Some of my campaign commitments are to keeping costs down, while maintaining services. Maintaining pensioner rate rebates. Informed community engagement and consultation. Improved entry statement for the Tweed from the Gold Coast and airport. Managing land development with demand and community expectations. Maintain Tweed’s natural beauty, waterways, parks & recreational spaces, for everyone to enjoy. No high rises south of proposed Tweed Regional City zone. Supporting business investment & job opportunities in the Shire. Greater Tertiary education in the Tweed. Promoting Tweed rural and food production opportunities. Working towards greater water security. Insuring the basics of roads, water and waste services are delivered to a high standard and within budget. Merit based decision making.

Council Election 23

Tweed Shire Elections 2016 sure way of preserving it for future use, should it ever be needed. If trains were to return to the corridor tomorrow, the rails would still need to be removed and replaced. Also, there seems to be a mistaken belief that the establishment of the Rail Trail will come at a cost of $13M to ratepayers. This is not the case - this ‘shovel ready’ project is to be jointly funded be the Federal and State Governments. This presents a once off opportunity to develop a world class tourism infrastructure asset. The money is not being made available for anything we like we either pursue this opportunity or we miss it.”

“

If Murwillumbah wants to create a point of difference and a image for a town we need to think out side of the square Any rail trail that has been developed has been a great success for the area it is in. We have all the features that people are looking for when walking the trail climate, iconic land scapes, safe area , ideal places to camp along the trail and close to a major air port There is also a opening for small business to provide services to the uses of the rail trail and maintain the rail trail. (jobs ) This debate takes me back some time when it was put forward about building a gallery in Murwillumbah

the knockers came, I believed in it and look at what we have now; one of the best Regional Gallerys in Australia I have the same passion and beleif about building the rail trail; build it and they will come.

“

Keeping the rail corridor in public ownership is a high priority. Whether the Rail Trail proposal is the best way to do that or not is debatable. If it is going to cost $13.4 million for the Rail Trail section from Murwillumbah to the Art Gallery, you have to wonder what the total cost of the project from Murwillumbah to Lismore will be. It might be cheaper to just bring back the train! When the Rail Trail is prioritised by Councillors ahead of local roads and sporting facilities for our kids you have to wonder. It might be better value to reinstate sections of the rail line. Sections from Byron to Murwillumbah or Lismore to Byron might be viable. If we want to look forward - then I would also suggest that we look at a “light rail trail” North from Murwillumbah towards the Gold Coast and from the Tweed down through the Coastal villages.”

“

It’s hard to bear the waste of $75M in public funds ($13M for the Tweed section) for such a non essential item. This is not an affluent Council and there are far higher priorities. We need $9M to stop the Tweed Valley Way eroding into the river. We are way

behind on meeting standards for any of our libraries that are used by nearly 50% of our population. Council even has a program to reduce our toilets. If we were smart we would invest this $13M in energy efficiency and renewables to off set rapidly rising energy costs. It’s being touted as a boon for tourism, but Murwillumbah already has 100,000 visitors a year to Mt.Warning/ Wollumbin and thousands more to the Art Gallery. If anything, a cycleway along the Tweed River would be far more scenic and beneficial to connect the communities from Murwillumbah to the Coast.”

KAYAKERS, CANOEISTS and other paddlers are invited to provide their input for plans to install a launch facility for non-powered vessels on the Tweed River. A community survey was launched by Council last week to find out about the places people like to paddle and the facilities they would like to see provided. “Mayor of Tweed Councillor Katie Milne said: “This will be great for the community and eco-tourism. “This is the sort of low-impact activity that fits well with our fragile river and our environmental image.” Col Wiley Park at Byangum has been identified as the site for the launch facility for a number of reasons, including the access it provides to the Tweed and Oxley Rivers. Council’s Project Officer - Coastal, Matt Lee, said: “In addition, the waterways at that location are limited to nonpowered vessels, so it’s an ideal site for canoeing,” “We have produced two concepts designs for the launch, which would make it safer and easier for people to get canoes and other non-powered vessels in an out of the river,” Mr Lee said. “We are engaging with a number of groups to discuss the two designs and other options. But we also want to hear from other people about the facilities they think are important for a launch and the surrounding site. “We’d like feedback from the full spectrum of potential users, from regular paddlers to those who would be keen to get involved if there were better facilities.” The works are jointly funded by Council and NSW Boating Now, a Transport for NSW program to implement boating initiatives in regional areas. The community survey can be completed online by visiting www.yoursaytweed.com.au. Printed copies are available at Council’s offices in Murwillumbah and Tweed Heads.

One of the longest running events in the Tweed Valley, the Banana Festival has gained national recognition for its celebration of agricultural history past and present. Banana Festival Coordinator Eryn Young said this year was looking to be one of the largest events on record. “Since early days of the festival, more than 50 years ago, we’ve incorporated a new event for the community to enjoy including Food Truck Friday (August 26) to take place in Knox Park alongside the many traditional main day events including the Street Parade and Family Fun Day,” she said. “This year we’re really focused on creating fun and free activities for the whole family, including free entry on Saturday (August 27) and free show rides for children. “We’re looking forward to a free gig from well-known performers Samba Blisters, who are eager to interact with the crowd and entertain.” Mrs Young said among the biggest attractions is the crowing of the Festival Queens, Teen Queens and Prince and Princess entrants. “We’ve had a lot of interest from local girls and local businesses getting involved with the Festival Queens and encouraging their journey throughout the festival and fundraising ventures,” she said. Mrs Young said the preparation towards this year’s Banana Festival had taken several months to organise, but the outcomes have been “extremely rewarding”. “We’ve had a lot of businesses interested in supporting the festival this year to help continue the iconic festival’s existence,” she said. “This is one of the most important festivals in the Tweed Shire as there’s something for everyone on the weekend

Chillingham Voices Choir ready to perform with a Sip, a Sup, and a Sing

By Rosemary Hume THE CHILLINGHAM Voices Choir presents a lighthearted evening of entertainment and culinary delight, A Sip, a Sup and a Sing on Saturday, August 20 at 6pm at the Chillingham Hall on Numinbah Road. Visitors will be welcomed at the door with a glass of port or sherry, then served with delicious homemade soup and crusty bread followed by one of the choir’s famous desserts, entertained all the while by the very best performances from the choir’s last Christmas party, including our very own girl group, Bad ABBA. The choir will also sing a number of their favourite songs. The Chillingham Voices started as an eight piece choir in 2009 and has grown steadily thanks to their open door policy which allows anyone interested to join. The choirmaster is trombone player, Harlie Axford who taught

music at the Queensland University of Technology in Brisbane before retiring. Mr Axford said, with a strong base of about 40 members between 35 and 88 years of age, the choir is pushing ahead with several major projects. “The year before last we toured Tasmania and this year in November, we are touring the South Island of New Zealand.” One of the original members, Liz Harmon, said the choir is made up of diverse and interesting individuals who share a love of making music. Entry for this fun evening is $15 for adults, $12 concessions and children a gold coin donation. To assist with catering, if you are planning to attend, a phone call to Sue Axford would be appreciated on: (02) 6679 1139. Proceeds from A Sip, a Sup and a Sing will go towards the choir’s trip to New Zealand.

Help local student reach 1000 female clay forms

ONE THOUSAND ceramic figurines of the female figure - that’s the target for Murwillumbah High School year 9 student Natalia Dawson. Working with a mentor, artist Suzanne Healy, Natalia is engaging the help of the community to reach her target of creating 1000 small, ceramic female forms. From 10am to 12 noon on Sunday, August 21, Natalia and Suzanne invite you to come along to the Tweed Regional Gallery & Margaret Olley Art Centre, Murwillumbah to contribute a figurine to the project. Clay will be provided, along with tips on creating your tiny woman. The project has been named ‘Girls on a Mission’ and aims to raise awareness of the importance of encouraging selfconfidence and ambition in women. Natalia and Suzanne are promoting recognition of women’s achievements in our community and beyond, in all areas of endeavour and particularly in the arts. The mentorship is part of the Youth Frontiers project, delivered through the NSW Government Department of Family and Community Services. The program is aimed at students in Years 8 and 9 and focuses on leadership and civic engagement. All are welcome to come along and contribute. A figurine takes approximately five minutes to create, and visitors are encouraged to think about an inspiring female in their own life as they make their own contribution.

Ivan Sen is a talented and versatile filmmaker who is used to working almost completely on his own. He writes, shoots, edits and creates the music score for his films. The son of an Aboriginal mother and Croatian father, he has being drawing on his personal background for his films which are infused with concern for the racial issues in Australian society. Goldstone is the sequel to Mystery Road - the 2013 film which was a big critical and commercial success - and like the previous film it plays on tropes and conventions familiar to the Western and film noir genres. Aaron Peterson stars again in the role of outback detective Jay Swan, a man from an indigenous background who is defending and upholding white law. Being loaded with all kinds of political and social contradictions, he is unavoidably a very divisive character wherever he goes. Grief-stricken by the death of his daughter, Jay arrives in the outback fictional community of Goldstone where he discovers a web of corruption involving the local mine, and a human trafficking operation. Aaron Pedersen, David Wenham, Jackie Weaver and David Gulpilil star in the movie. The film opened the recent Sydney Film Festival.

Saturday take a Walk down memory lane to the 50s and 60s with an evening event showcasing hot rods, retro cars, vintage cars and retro caravans. Live band “Little Billy” will be playing centre stage. Little Billy are Brisbane’s finest and most experienced American roots, blues and rockabilly. With influences from Ruth Brown, Muddy Waters, Howling Wolf, and Janis Martin, you can be assured of the need to get to your feet and dance to the high energy, 1950s blues, roots and rockabilly numbers. Wow these guys are great, well worth the drive to Mudgeeraba. The show will also include international street food, twilight markets and kids Rides. Show car entry is $10 and includes passengers and judging. With rock ’n ’roll dancing being the latest local fad, there’s a new generation of young people hitting the dance floor.

Tweed Valley Weekly Locals Supporting Locals

Raunchy show draws big crowds for Cabaret 360 THE UKI Hall came alive last Friday and Saturday (August 12-13) when more than 35 performers took to the stage to explore the concept of “Nothing is what it Seems’’. The packed and clearly delighted audiences were treated to a plethora of local acts showcased within the framework of an original show directed by Michele Thomas and Marlena Basser that explored the landscape of the secrets ‘hidden in the closet”. The Bella Fontes, Li Pawson, Dandyman, Ruby Rubberlegs, David Hallett and many other performers were captured by the spell of the giant spider queen “Spidora” who lurked within a decorated wardrobe, stealing people away and wrapping them in her web. Local circus legend Sue Hird played Spidora to much hilarity and acclaim. Act after act revealed another secret to be revealed and another incredible local talent to be discovered. The Cabaret used many devices of traditional theatre – light box illuminations for shadow puppet play, black lights to make Spidora’s teeth glow and illuminated hoops come alive, giant tetrahedron’s from which faeries exploded,

acrobalance, music, comedy, and more, including in the finale a “human explosion” out of the wardrobe of every performer in the show to the rousing poem – about raging against the dying of the light, “Rock’n’Roll” performed by local performance-art identity Kool Eze Yay. Producer, Nick Hanlon of Rainbow Region Gigs said the event provided a huge boost to the local arts. “More than 47 artists, production crew and others were employed for this show, which resulted in a great boost for the local arts economy,” she said. “Artists gather in this region in great numbers so it stands to reason that a relatively small cabaret in a small village like Uki can actually be of a professional world class standard – many of the acts who performed in Cabaret 360 tour the world to perform when not at home. It is essential to foster and support the arts in our communities so many thanks are due to all the wonderful sponsors, supporters, performers and crew who contributed to this show. It’s success is ultimately a great expression of our collective strength as an artistic community.” To find out more about Rainbow Region Gigs or to get in contact with Nick Hanlon phone: 0477 827 940.

with. So to inspire you here is a recipe from the growers website: http://www.nudgelnuts.com. au/baked-macadamia-crusted-fish/ There are many more recipes to including Macadamia Pancakes and a Macadamia Raspberry Ice Cream Log! Pick up your fish from Noel at his Brunswick Seed Oysters Seafood stall at the market and enjoy baked macadamia crusted fish this week. TWEED RIVER PECANS David and Kaye first planted their 500 productive pecans in 1999. They are grown in the fertile soils of the Tweed River Valley at Kynnumboon using biological farming methods. David and Kaye carefully nurture their trees harvesting and packing the pecan nuts to ensure optimum flavour, freshness and nutrition. During winter and being deciduous, the pecan trees lose their leaves, resulting in a stunning vista of delicate silvery branches. Organic compost is spread on the orchard floor, clover flourishes and fixes nitrogen in the soil and cattle are grazed to add to the biological life. Just before spring is a perfect time to prune. One of the photos shows David pruning out parasitic mistletoe 8 metres up from the back of the ute. If left it will weaken the pecan tree. Spring sees the trees come alive again as buds swell and new foliage shoots out. Male and female flowers appear, with the wind spreading pollen through the trees to enable fertilisation. The growers are busy irrigating and mowing to keep the orchard floor clean. 53040

This month we are shining the spotlight on NUTS. Although it is winter, spring is rapidly approaching so orchards are being tidied up ready for the emergence of new season growth buds and new foliage on pecans and flowers for the new nuts on macas. . NUDGEL NUTS MACADAMIA FARM Macadamia nuts available at the market each week are grown at Ian and Leone’s farm at The Pocket near Billinudgel hence the name. The first trees were planted in 1997, followed in 1998 and 2000 by further plantings, with the most recent being in 2005. Work is never done and although new season nuts arrived at the market late March Ian has been busy pruning trees over the past few weeks to ensure their health and good cropping into the future. The property covers 200 acres where Ian also runs beef cattle and a herd of elite alpacas. Ian ensures that his pecans get the best attention with his focus being on environmentally friendly and sustainable farming and minimum exposure to pesticides and other sprays. Ian brings a range of macadamia products to the market each week – raw and roasted nuts with or without sea salt (no additives), chocolate coated nuts, honey roasted nuts and macadamia oil. In addition he brings a macadamia spread that is perfect in pestos as are his crushed nuts. Their roasted nuts are done at a low temperature to ensure that they maintain their inherent goodness. I love macadamias in a whole host of ways from nibbling them straight from the pack to cooking

Junior semi finals and Storm could go all the way THE BRONCOS are back! I hope! Maybe! The Eels are battling but the Broncos were good and the MILF found some form. Him confident and playing well is the key with a big game this Thursday against the Dogs. The Raiders are the real deal. I watched them play against the Sharks last week and they were very impressive. They backed up that performance and were quite dominant against the premiership favourites and top of the table Storm. They possess a real good balance and are a definite threat now they are entrenched in the top 4. Positions 5-8 are still quite intriguing with games in the last round probably needed to confirm it. Jarryd Hayne has been a massive hit with the Titans and gee he lit up Campbelltown on Sunday. Are the Cowboys in strife? I don’t think so, their team is too good to just go away and the Roosters do have a great roster and are sitting way below where they should be. Manly are gone also and have under achieved and you can throw Souths into that group also. Good to hear Keiran Foran might be back on the paddock next year most probably with the Warriors. He still has some issues to sort out but I see it as a real positive. Ryan James gets a week and is challenging the charge yet

he broke Tedesco’s Jaw and may have finished his season. It’s disappointing for Tigers and Tedesco but it did seem pretty accidental and unlucky although a little careless. No Tedesco will finish the Tigers, he is one of those players that make others feel confident when you’re getting kitted up pre game. NRRRL is interesting last round. The Hornets have lost 2 points for playing an unregistered player and the Dirrawongs pick up those two points. If Casino win against United they secure the minor premiership. If Cudgen beat Marist they finish second and finish Marist’s season. If both Casino and Cudgen lose and the Mustangs can convincingly beat Byron Bay the Stangs could finish on top. Evans Head could also sneak into fifth depending on results. It makes for an intriguing finish to the regulation season. Junior semi finals kick off this weekend at Mullumbimby. Good luck to all clubs and grades that are involved. Well done to the Murwillumbah Colts for making the finals in all grades u/10’s through to u/16’s. Enjoy the footy, Quinny

Aries (Mar21-Apr19)- You may have found yourself having a very busy start to the week Aries, and the conflict of work or play will continue through the week for you. Today is the Full moon, and it can bring stress to existing relationships for you so take care not to overreact if a friend steps on your toes! Taurus (Apr20-May20)- Today is a great day to look at expanding your horizons, with the full moon up above opening new doors in your career zone. This is a good time to not focus on the doors that have closed but the new ones that are opening up for you. There is new romance possibilities opening up for you also, should you get more involved? Gemini (May21-June20)- Do you feel an internal rising call for adventure? This is a great time to step boldly out of your comfort zone and charter new unexplored territory. With great challenge comes great growth, and it might just lead you down a path that will benefit you in the long run. Keep your eyes peeled for new opportunities! Cancer (June21-July22)- The Full moon is rising into your business zone this week cancer which can either make or break deals. Tread carefully right now, and try to stay as positive as possible making smart decisions and protecting your investments. You may find that you are also feeling highly driven towards your ultimate goals! So push hard. Leo (July23-Aug22)- You might find a random invitation for a trip pop up this week, which could just turn out to be a lot of fun! A trip could be just what you need to balance out your busy schedule. With the full moon might come some relationship stress however, it is best in times like this to take a moment to reflect before reacting to others. Virgo (Aug23-Sept22)- Are you feeling rather inspired at the moment Virgo? The stars are lined up nicely to bring new light to old projects or ideas, freshening things up and letting you tackle projects more creatively. It is a good idea to lighten your schedule late in the week to free up some time to be more spontaneous. Libra (Sept23-Oct22)- This is a great time to create some space for you. We all need to take some time out of our lives now and again to touch base with that person inside and figure out where we are at. With these periods we are presented with choices, carry on with our current momentums or change our patterns for the better. Scorpio (Oct23-Nov21)- Are you getting bitten by the lovebug right now Scorpio? Or are you doing the biting? The stars are aligned to bring a little bit of romantic obsession, so make sure it is what you want before overly committing yourself. It is best to leave any major decisions until after Thursday. Sagittarius (Nov22-Dec21)- It is time to be practical this week, rather than pushing new ideas and expanding! When we ground ourselves we see a lot of details that we might have otherwise missed. With the Full moon in your sector of talk and thought, it isn’t wise to make promises but rather go with the flow. Capricorn (Dec22-Jan19)- This is a perfect time to expand your horizons! There are many positive planet alignments happening for you right now, which can encourage and lift up your projects and ambitions in new and exciting ways. You can expect a little bit of a windfall monetarily today with the Full moon bringing some luck your way. Aquarius (Jan20-Feb18)- Now is a great time to think positive thoughts, and not focus too much on uncertainty. With a potentially shaky start to the week, things are looking good now to start new plans without the rug being pulled from underneath your feet. It is best however to take things slowly and surely until next week. Pisces (Feb19-Mar20)- The stars are lining up nicely in your social sector this week keeping things light and upbeat. Just mind that there may be one particular person that comes into your space, being a bit pushy. Make sure you speak up and have yourself heard if you feel this way. This is a good time to have fun!

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 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” Comes with a 5 year warranty ~ Make your Hot Water System last for 30 years!

BOWLS NOTES The 2016 Ocean Shores/T.B.D.B.A. Challenge Cup (previously the IGT Cup) Conducted at Ocean Shores B.C. provided a great day of bowls for all involved. Formatted on 3 games of 11 ends with club sides of 2 teams of 4 players each, the greens were filled to capacity. Round One and Cabarita, with 2 solid wins and a margin of 32 in Round one, was in the top position with Condong, 2 + 22, their nearest rival. Round Two and the Cudgen Leagues lads, who collected a 2 + 4 in round one, again notched up a further 2 wins to give them a tally of 4 + 19 being the only side to win all games to this point. The vital Third, and final round, and the ‘Hornets’, Col Lacey, Grandville Woodhouse, Peter Prichard, Graham Border (Skip) with Neil Gillie, Ross Morrow, Gordon Wood, and Barry Henry (Skip), were still full of sting. Again they won both games to succeed being the only side to win all their games, claim victory with a score on 6 + 21 and take home the prestigious Cup. Runnersup on the day were the Byron Bay side on 4 + 28. Brunswick Heads was the venue for the 2016 Zone One Singles and Pairs

Championships. Tweed Byron Open Singles rep, Josh Greenhalgh (Brunswick Heads) took the lead in his duel with Maclean’s W. McDonald and held that position to close the game with a solid margin. Greenhalgh then encountered South Lismore’s Jamie Eichorn for a berth in the State Play-offs. Brilliant bowling from both these champions made for a great arvo of top entertainment as the lads fought for supremacy in a close scoring contest. In a game played in the best of sportsmanship, Greenhalgh claimed victory with a 3 shot margin. Kingscliff’s Greg Barrack and Trevor Hills were the District contenders in the Senior Pairs. Up against Yamba’s S. Scobie and G. Meaney, the lads held a good lead for most of the game, but a surge from the opposition in the latter ends pushed the game to a photo finish with the Kingscliff pair taking the game with a one shot advantage. Their final encounter with Lennox Heads’ T. McFadden and N, Wilson would probably be a game best forgotten by their opposition. The Lennox lads led for the first five ends until the Kingscliff boys, now obviously warmed up,

took over, and playing superbly plundered shot after shot amassing a huge score resulting in the Lennox pair conceding defeat on the 19th end. Senior Singles contender Kingscliff’s Kevin Liddington was unlucky to be taken out by Maclean’s K, Scott. Mullumbimby’s Mark Holton and Ritchie Northcott, in a

Tapped in to the waves

well matched close scoring game, lost to Ballina’s G. Speers and D. Kemp in the Open Pairs. Cabarita’s Chris Mullen and Bill Davey were taken out by Maclean’s S. Fuller and R. Murphy in the Reserve Pairs. See you on the greens. Good bowling everyone.

Kingscliff’s Van Der Waal brothers have flown the flag for the locals, at the Australian Bodyboard Titles at Gallows Beach Coffs Harbour last weekend. Buzz Van Der Waal winning the Australia under 14 (Grommet) Title, and big brother Santo placing 3rd in the Under 16 (Cadet) division. The lads are regulars at the slabs of Northern NSW, and due to the structure of bodyboarding were actually representing Qld! An awesome result for the young blokes, and they both look to have a big future in bodyboarding.

Durbo’s Back!! Bede Durbidge has announced he will be resuming his competitive career in the final events of the year in Hawaii. It has been an amazing comeback from “White Fijian”, who fractured his pelvis in a horrendous wipeout at Pipeline less than 12 months ago. While most bone injuries take between two and four months to heal, the pelvis bone is a huge weightbearing one. And the act of surfing involves loading even more than your usual body weight into each of your maneuvers. It’s that aspect of the recovery process which takes much longer to heal. One year is considered a rapid recovery. Bede released a statement and seems like he is ready to go. “My recovery is going so well. So much better than I thought it would to be

honest. I was given about a 12-month recovery diagnosis from the doctor and I feel I’m about 75% right now.” Inching his way back, and if you have seen recent footage of him at Snapper, you can see he is back. “I have been surfing for a couple of months now. I was on a longboard for a few weeks then upgraded to a 6’8 single fin for about a month and now I’m back on my regular shortboard. Every surf I go for, it feels better and better. I have entered Haleiwa, Sunset and Pipe in Hawaii. It will be 11 months since the injury and I feel the Triple Crown will be the perfect time and venue to pull the competition vest back on. I’m so excited to compete again, but I know I have a few more months of solid training and I’ll be back surfing at 100%.” Good to see Bede Back!!

Our Chief Training Officer, Michael Kenny will journey to Ghana, West Africa in November to conduct training courses for Surf Life Saving.

The spiritual home of surf life saving Australia at Bondi, Icebergs will be officially re-opened by the GovernorGeneral, Sir Peter Cosgrove on Thursday 25th August. The multi-purpose space has recently undergone renovations and will again be home to SLSA’s Head Office as well as serving as an important historical archive for the 108 year old movement. The Dept. of Primary Industries had discontinued the installation of the shark

barrier at Ballina. In its statement the company had identified “significant installation and maintenance issues” making it unsafe to install the barrier. These conditions included “consistent large swells and sand movement changing the water depth”. The barrier trial at Lennox Head is going ahead. A good roll up of I.R.B. training at Brunswick last Sunday with eight clubs represented. The final training morning will be at Salt next month. The “coldies” had a good turn out for their swim in flat surf conditions. Results nearest to nominated time: 1. Brodie Copeland, 2. Phil Klein, 3. Susie Hawkins. Sunday entertainment at 3 pm “Eureka Funk”.

Cabarita SLSC – Keith Kennedy

It was a great thrill to attend the NSW Surf lifesaving Awards of Excellence last Saturday night in Sydney. The function was held at the Four Seasons hotel. Formerly known as The Regent of Sydney and where I started my career 30 years ago although it did not seem as big as I remembered. This could of been the combination of being 30 years on and the fact I was surrounded by an enormous amount of surf lifesaving Officials, coaches, trainers, athletes and lifeguards who I actually managed to recognise out of the red & yellow or White & blue standard uniforms. I would like to congratulate all of the FNC Branch finalists for representing your clubs and branch at such a high level and especially to Angus McPhail for taking out the

Lifesaver of the Year Award. With that all done, we are ready to start the new season. Patrolling members meeting this Sunday from 9am followed by the Lifesaving AGM and Surf Club AGM and we look forward to seeing lots of you. Winter Whales finishes in four weeks time on Father’s Day. A great way to practice for proficiency so come along and join them from 9:30 am for a swim. Members draw on Friday and Sunday are still up for grabs so I look forward to seeing you down at the club.

Mustangs took the field against Marist Brother Rams, a clash between 3rd and 4th place that would most likely determine a top 3 position for the winner. Mustangs came out hard in the first half, putting on 28 points with a number of damaging busts by Joni Macilai resulting in tries to Scott Nichols, Daryl Brooks and Tobi Macintosh. Mustangs up 28-6 at the end of the first half. The Rams hit back in the second half, ensuring a nail biting finish, Mustangs over Rams 36-34. Mustangs play away at Byron on Sunday when the minor premiership will be decided between the top three teams. Photo and words by:

Sh ting Hoops WOMEN’S LEAGUE Two very tight contests on Monday night in the Women’s League. In a hard fought game, Blazers came through with the goods with a 22-16 win over the Bandits. For Blazers Jess Mattner was the sharp shooter, ably supported with solid defence by Selena Stillman. For Bandits, Natalie Wilson was their top scorer while also pulling down some strong rebounds. In a HUGE upset, Steelers defeated the previously undefeated champions, Young Guns, 39-31. It was not only Young Guns first loss of the current season, but their first loss in 2 seasons! Rebecca Herrington and Cassey McIntosh were the top scores for their respective sides with 18 points apiece. MEN’S LEAGUE Can this new season get any better? Not one, but BOTH games on Tuesday nights ended in extraordinary draws. First the undefeated Wolves were held by Splash Ketchum 43-43, and then Bushrangers and Tropics finished square at 26-26. I can’t recall this having happened before. In the first 3 weeks of the newly formed Men’s League the largest winning margin has been just 8 points. The goal was to make the sides balanced, and so far it has been a success. AUSSIE HOOPS It only feels like yesterday but we are already 4 weeks into the 8 week program. Every week you see the improvement these young Hoopers are making. It’s a genuine joy to see the smiling faces each week, despite the occasional bump and fall. YOUTH LEAGUE With numbers continuing to be strong, we commenced the first trial games to help

sort and balance teams. As it’s a broad age range from 11-16 and both girls and boys, it’s important to create a fair but also competitive environment. Coaching while playing will be part of the process. We welcome any parents and coaches who are interested in assisting. BANANA FESTIVAL On Saturday 27 August, Murwillumbah holds the Banana Festival Parade. This year for the first time in many years, Murwillumbah Basketball will be starring, led by our Aussie Hoops team. We welcome everyone to come join us for a bit of fun. As the theme of the festival is Olympic, let’s show how proud we are of our growing association and of our National Basketball teams, The Opals and The Boomers! RIO Speaking of which, both our Women’s and Men’s national squads are doing Australia proud in Brazil. Unfortunately the Opals stumbled and were beaten in the quarter finals by a gutsy Serbian team. In the men’s, The Boomers gave the USA a genuine scare that it appears they haven’t got over. Australia had crushing wins over both France and Serbia, yet Team USA struggled against these 2 nations recording very narrow wins. Last week I predicted Silver for both squads. Well, with the Opals out, I’ll go out on a limb and predict GOLD for the Boomers! Yes, I am convinced we can match and beat the USA! Until next week, Happy Ballin’
