Store Your Energy with Solar Batteries

How to Zero Your Power Bill - and Stay Connected to the Grid

With FIT’s at 12-16c you can now sell power back to the grid as part of a strategy to minimise and eliminate power charges completely.

Production from 2.5 kW of solar - about 10 panels - will offset the dreaded electricity supply charge when all the generated power is exported at 12-16c per kWh. With solar export FIT’s now more than half the cost of buying power from the grid, the rest of your power charges can be neutralised with more solar as well. Power used from solar panels directly during the day will offset the full price of buying power, so maximising use during the day is essential. Power used after daylight hours can be offset by generating and exporting twice as much to the grid as you use at night.

A two person household could neutralise their electricity bill completely with 5-8 kW of solar panels, without using batteries or going off grid.

The Network operator, Essential Energy, sets limits for how much solar you can export to the grid. A general cap of 5 kW of solar generation is often applied, so buying more panels for export production alone may not work for larger households. Using batteries to store the extra solar power generated above your export quota is then an excellent investment to eliminate most of your power charges. A combination of solar for export, self use maximised during daylight hours and battery storage is a great strategy to bring your bill closer to zero for medium to large households. You can also go off grid and eliminate your bill as well. 888 Solar Tek offer a FREE consultation to help you with your solar energy plan, examining your bill, advising on energy providers and designing a solar solution to help you take control of rampant energy charges.

Just Get Some Panels on Your Roof!

A small grid-connected solar system will pay for it self in as little as two to three years. By generating enough power to cover your use during daylight hours, you can eliminate up to 50% of your total power use from the grid. Every new solar panel attracts a subsidy from the Government, slashing the cost of purchase and making this play the most affordable way to combat the coal and gas electricity cartel. Strategies that maximise electricity use during the day, when the most solar power is being generated, by shifting washing, cooking, pool and hot water heating to these times, can make a huge difference to power costs. Retirees who are home most of the time adapt well to this solar lifestyle and can eliminate a large part of their electricity charges with a few solar panels working quietly on their roof every day. Businesses that operate 9-5 are also great beneficiaries from this strategy because solar power is readily available when they need it most.

Long walk for mental health awareness

A CHILLINGHAM couple are planning on undertaking a 10,000 kilometre walk around Australia to raise awareness of suicide and the need for more equitable funding for mental health. Liane and Tony Drummond begin their year-long journey next week with their two dogs, Charlie a golden retriever and George a pug. The couple will drive sections considered too dangerous to walk, but plan to walk the majority of the trek which will take them through Adelaide, Melbourne, Perth, Broome and Canberra. Liane’s only child, David 28, took his life on October 9 last year after battling with depression and mental health. Liane has since wrote several letters to both State and Federal politicians over concerns that funding for mental health is still inadequate and in dire need of addressing. The couple are not planning on raising any funds but instead hope to spread the word to help those struggling with mental health and to lobby governments for more mental health funding. “We had a meeting with Professor McGorry (CEO Headspace and Australian of the Year 2010) in February this year to discuss David’s story,” Liane said. “He has started a lobby group called ‘Australians for Mental Health’, a group of people who are bereaved by suicide or have a lived experience of interacting with mental health services. “The goals of the group are making

mental health an election priority, addressing the chronic shortage of funding and services for mental health in Australia and helping end the stigma and shame associated with seeking help for mental health conditions.” The couple will start the trip on Monday, October 9, with a special morning tea at Limpinwood Hall before heading off. “Our plan is to walk 10,000kms in the year,” Tony said. “We will be driving about 9,000km and both Liane and I will walk 20km per day, except for rest days and driving days, with a total of 40km. “Liane will walk in the mornings and I will walk in the afternoon. “We are inviting people who have had friends and or family affected by

FINGAL HEAD residents have thrown their support behind a ban on three-storey buildings in favour of two-storeys, according to the latest Fingal Head Building Height Review. In 2013, Tweed Shire Council decided to conduct a review of Fingal Head building heights. During the review the community had expressed concern that buildings were measured in metres rather than storeys, which has been recent dilemma at Kingscliff with Councillor Ron Cooper pushing for a three-storey height limit and adjusting that view according to metres. Fingal Head was restricted to a nine metre height limit under the Tweed Local Environment Plan 2014. The plan meant that a three-storey building could be “theoretically designed” within Fingal Head, however the latest height review recommends a two-storey limit only be imposed,

which will be voted on during tonight’s Ordinary Meeting, Thursday, October 5. Unlike Kingscliff, Fingal Head has not received a single three-storey building development application, however one property had applied for a height limit variation to allow a thirdstorey deck. The latest consultation for Fingal Head height limits took place in June 2017, where residents raised concerns over height variations, setbacks and the overall appearance of new buildings. A total of 25 per cent of Fingal Head ratepayers responded to the Council survey, with the most common concern being a loss of vegetation followed by building bulk, loss of privacy or sunlight and building height limits. The Tweed Byron Local Aboriginal Land Council called for a reduction to the Fingal Head height limit to seven metres or less, which would reduce the current limits by two metres.

suicide to join with us and walk 5km in honour of their loved one.” The couple hope to finish their yearlong journey on October 9, 2018, in Canberra where they hope to meet the Prime Minister. “We will be also taking David’s dog Charlie (two-year-old Golden retriever), who will walk 10km most days and our dog George (Pug), will be snoozing in the motor home,” Tony said. “It is not a fundraising trip but more a making people aware trip. “We will also be encouraging people to support Australians for Mental Health (australiansformentalhealth. org.au) so a collective voice can lobby the government.”

The Land Council were also concerned with land vegetation removal and encroachment onto Crown Land or Indigenous Land, with reports of unlawful land use already taking place in the iconic seaside suburb. Roof decks were also the target of many complaints from residents with concerns for privacy as well as applications for variations to the nine metre height limit to include a deck. Cr Cooper told The Weekly that he believes it is important to keep Fingal Head a small village. “The access to Fingal is very prone to flooding and there’s very little room for expansion,” he said. “I believe, for these reasons, it’s important to keep Fingal a small village and maintain the two storey height limit.” YOUR THOUGHTS: Do you believe Fingal Head should remain a seaside village?

CONGRATULATIONS Noel Frankland

my major concern is the silting up of the lagoon. Council should not wait until disaster strikes in the form of a major overflow of water from the surrounding roads and roofs that did not exist when the lake was first dug there. Action now could save the lake, lagoon,reeds, swans and people’s houses. The eels will look after themselves. They are native and very adaptable to change. Tony Kean, Banora Point

Cygnets don’t stand a chance

Give Banora swans a chance

How do you feel if you see a eel or a swan? Exciting to see an eel but it feels more uplifting to see a beautiful swan. Could both live by making some facility for the swans Sadhana Dasi, Tweed

Action needed to save cygnets

Several years ago, when I was a member of both the Tweed Valley Wildlife Carers and Twin Towns Banora Golf Club, I was concerned about the cygnets being taken by the eels in the dams on the golf course. I approached Department of Fisheries, Parks and Wildlife, and the Tweed Shire Council in an effort to have the eels culled. Each person I spoke to suggested that I contact someone else. Eventually I was told much the same as you were by a Council spokesperson regarding the issuing of eel catching licenses. It’s reassuring to see the Council is moving with its usual speed and efficiency. There must be someone on the Council who will move forward on this matter and stop the senseless killing of so many of our native birds. What happens when the adult birds die? We will be left with no future generations of a number of the local bird species to enjoy. Thanks for bringing this matter into the open, hopefully it might stir up enough interest to have some action this time. Chris Smedley, South Tweed

Banora waterway concerns

While the life cycle of the swans is a concern there are other matters of concern. There will be no reeds for the swans to nest in if the water fowls continue to destroy them. There are far too many water fowls in the area and dare I say misguided people with good intentions feed them. Nobody feeds the eels. As a long time resident of the area

I was most interested in your story (TVW, Sep 28) about the two black swans which reside at the lake and have done for many a year. Over that time, I’ve noted the many cygnets only last maybe four or five days due to the hunger of the resident eels, which are thicker than my forearms. One year, three of then lasted until they left for more watery climes. I do believe that council had contracted a bloke to remove the eels at least twice yearly, but he or his nets have not been seen for at least three, maybe four years. We who walk the circuit of the lake around 5am daily keep a look out for the swans as they add something to the lake, along with the other bird life, particularly when nest building starts. Currently, we also have a pair of pelicans which adds further the lake ambiance. We walkers do hope that something can be done towards the ridding of the eels so as to enhance the population of swans . Ivan Nannac, Banora Point

Banora eel cull would be healthy

Very tragic story. I certainly do believe more should be done to protect the cygnets, and ‘to hear the parents crying in grief at the loss of their little ones” is understandably too much to bear - I agree it is heartbreaking. It may well be that Lake Kimberley has an oversupply of eels and a cull would be healthy. Pene Liddicoat, Tweed

A win for Chinderah residents

After many months of campaigning for the council to do something about the illegal campers along Chinderah Bay Drive it was welcome news to hear of the council’s new policy and definition to ban camping along Chinderah Bay Drive and its foreshore. We hope however, that it doesn’t take as long to erect the signage and enforce the no camping policy. Philip Jeffels, Chairperson Gateway Lifestyle Tweed Shores Residents Committee

I am saddened that there are some who oppose Council supporting the fundamental human right to marry. I am angry that in a free society where equality is a given, our Local Council has to fill the vacuum of leadership that exists at Federal level. I am in disbelief that our Federal Government has to survey the Australian community to find out if equality is OK. If the Federal Government can’t lead in defending equal rights, then this Council will do it for them. There is never a “yes” or “no” option when it comes to equality. There should never be a “yes” or “no” option when it comes to human rights. A timid Federal Government has provided a platform for ignorance and irrational fear to scuttle a fundamental tenet of our democracy - the right to marry the person we love. Inclusion is not a dirty word. It is a tie that binds our society. It allows communities to thrive and love to bloom. I’m voting “yes”, but I object to the Federal Government, under the cover of a simplistic “yes/ no” survey, avoiding its legislative responsibility to protect our rights. Ron Cooper, Kingscliff

Council shouldn’t weigh into marriage debate

Councillors Allsop, Owen and Polglase should be commended on their stand against raising the rainbow flag at the council offices. To use ratepayers money on a flag that would be against around half of the residents of the shire’s beliefs and using their rate money to fund this is beyond belief. All councils should stick to what they were elected to do, that is to run the council using ratepayers money in the best way possible to build and maintain roads, sporting fields, council property etc. Everyone has their own mind on what is morally right and I don’t think Prime Minister Turnbull or any other high government official whether on either side of parliament should say how they will vote, we are not stupid we do have our own mind. Noel Frankland, Bray Park

No consultation on same-sex marriage

I find it appalling that four people who have been elected to represent all the people of the Tweed Shire, could make a decision regarding same-sex marriage when they have no basis on which to make a judgment. There has been absolutely

no consultation with the people or staff that I am aware of and for those four Councillors, Milne, Cherry, Byrnes and Cooper who may suggest otherwise, it certainly shows them in a very poor light. Particularly Councillor Cooper whose main platform/mantra when he was elected to his previous stint in Council was ‘consultation/ communication’, ‘go to the people’ and ‘seek their opinion’ as he did spending many, hours, days and weeks gathering the names on his petition for his recent platform of no high rise in Kingscliff. He is to be commended for this. Furthermore it was due to Councillor Cooper’s initiative when he was last in Council that we now have the Tweed Link. This publication could and should have been an excellent vehicle through which to gauge public opinion. Voting ‘yes’ or ‘no’ is a very personal issue and whilst the subject may not be ‘ultra vires’ it is not one for a decision at Local Government level. Barbara Nowland, Ex Councillor

I’m with Menkit

Menkit Prince has wrote a very thoughtful letter (TVW, Sep 28) on same-sex marriage issues. She raises the very valid option of civil unions for same-sex couples. At the federal level there is already a legal provision for civil unions of same sex couples which could be tweaked to give them most of what they are asking for. At the state level, they have access to domestic partnership registries, each state passing their own laws on the issue within the framework of the federal legislation. This provision has been available since 2004. Changing the legal definition of marriage would mean destroying the tradition of heterosexual marriage that has been the cornerstone of most societies and cultures for thousands of years. Most of us were incensed when ISIS destroyed ancient structures which they claimed were against their morality. I feel incensed that this precious tradition is under threat. Once lost it may be impossible to recover this historic link with our ancestors intact. Ironically, I am hearing of many gay people who feel the same way about traditional marriage, and feel that the civil union is the way to go. I too feel alarmed at the “Safe Schools” program often advertised in “Yes” campaign rallies. This program is masquerading as an anti bullying initiative, but in reality is a social engineering scheme designed

to enforce radical social values, including gender fluidity, on our children through schools, overriding the primary rights of parents in the development of their children’s life guiding ethical principles. Congratulations Menkit, for your courage in raising this issue. Christine Passmore, Murwillumbah

Disagree with offensive letter

Menkit Prince’s letter of last week is so offensive and ill informed it’s hard to know where to start. Agenda 21 is an altruistic non binding UN goal to address sustainability. Safe Schools, another target for fantasist conspiracy theorists is not a mandated teaching program but a resource that teachers can access to inform,guide and help themselves, their schools and students facing everyday challenges. It’s designed to tackle bullying. When she talks about normalising homosexuality what on earth is she saying? As for communist ideology there’s an old bogeyman to resurrect. The letter is full of untruths rehashed and conflated as an argument against same-sex marriage. Her attempt to fuel antagonism towards sections of the community and peddle myths about world order are irrational fear mongering and divisive. Cynthia Brook, Tyalgum

A thank you to the Mayor

Congratulations to Katie Milne for the rails on track meeting, it proved a point that we need the trains back. Geoff Provest and Thomas George need to get their act together and make it happen. They have both done little for the Tweed Shire only put a police station in the CBD of Tweed Heads with poor access to the rest of the region. Get the person who wants to invest $90 million in Lismore to be washed away in the next big flood, to invest into the rail service including a sky rail along the Tweed River to the Gold Coast Airport, what a way to get tourists into the area. I’m disappointed that ratepayer’s money is being wasted on the changing the marriage act, it would have been better spent on finishing Kirkwood Road to Fraser Drive. Gordon Lee, Tweed Heads

Get rid of Daylight Saving

I think daylight savings goes way too long, I have school children, so I like having that extra hour in the morning,to walk the dog and not be time pressured to get the kid’s off to school. Maybe just have it half way through November to the end of February. Jacquelyn Harris, Tweed

Tweed water supply at risk from rising sea levels THE FUTURE of the Tweed’s water supply is uncertain after an independent report found that the frequency and duration of salt water contamination events will increase, and by 2100 rising sea levels will cause the weir to overtop by 0.8m. Tweed Shire Councillors will take the next step to address concerns surrounding future contamination of the Bray Park Weir at tonight’s Planning Meeting (Thursday, October 5) after the weir was overtopped by salt water in late August. It is recommended that Council spends $400,000 to undertake community engagement and to develop several options to secure the Tweed’s water supply for the future. These options include temporary barriers, raising the weir wall and alternative water supplies during contamination events. According to Council’s report the only way to completely remove the risk of salt water from entering the weir pool is to raise the weir wall by more than 1.4m. Raising the weir wall would come at a risk with possible increases in the frequency and height of floods in surrounding areas. Raising the wall would also cause ground water levels to rise and increased river heights may cause further river bank erosion, necessitate house raising and prevent access via causeways and bridges. A more conservative option is to raise the weir wall by 0.9m which would remove the risk of salt water entering the weir pool up until 2067. The downsides of this option are that overtopping could still occur and further raising of the wall would be required after 2067. Another option proposed by Council is to place a structure on top of the wall that would be raised when there is risk of salt water entering the weir. A completely different approach, however,

would be to accept overtopping of the weir and have measures that prevent salt water from entering the drinking supply such as an alternative stored water supply that could be used in times of contamination or a pipeline from Clarrie Hall Dam. Council would, however, still need to come up with ways of removing salt water that accumulates at the bottom of the weir pool during contamination events. Another issue for Council is that an agreement was made with 20 land owners back in 1980 that stated Council would not raise the Bray Park Weir. In the meantime the weir will be sandbagged when there is a risk of overtopping and water may also be released from the Clarrie Hall Dam to increase flows. Council is also investigating other options for temporary barriers, until a more permanent solution has been found.

Independent report outlines climate change risk

Council enlisted the expertise of the University of NSW Water Research Laboratory in Sydney to assess the future risk of the overtopping occurring again. The Water Research Laboratory (WRL) of the School of Civil and Environmental Engineering at UNSW Sydney assessed the likelihood of tidal water overtopping the weir under present day and projected future climate change conditions up until the year 2100. The report’s summary said the Bray Park Weir wall is located 1m above sea level and only the very highest tides can currently overtop the weir. “However, if sea levels continue to rise on their current trajectory, this may become a common occurrence,” the report reads. The comprehensive report highlighted historical tide data and took into consideration future forecasts under climate change and tidal anomalies, which was the cause of the most

recent overtopping. A high tide and sea level anomaly along with low flows in the Tweed River caused the weir to be overtopped by 180mm on August 21. In any given year there is a 63 per cent chance of a tidal anomaly of 0.29m, 10 per cent chance of 0.41m and 1 per cent chance of 0.56m. Council estimated that between 70 to 140 mega litres entered the Bray Park Weir Pool during the event. The report found that under current conditions the weir wall is overtopped for 6.9 hours per year. By 2067 under mid-range sea level rise scenarios it is predicted that tidal water will flow over the weir wall for 383 hours per year, whilst under high-range sea level rises this number would increase to 691 hours per year. At the turn of the next century (2100) the number of hours that salt water is predicted to flow over the weir would more than triple to 1278 hours for a mid-range scenario and 3198 hours under a high-range scenario. It is also predicted that the length of overtopping events could increase in the future. “In addition, it is predicted that the duration of a single tidal overtopping event of the weir will increase as maximum tidal levels grow with sea level rise,” the report reads. “These predictions do not include the effect of tidal anomalies on water levels downstream of the weir which could result in further overtopping than has been predicted by this study.” The report noted that the analysis did not account for Tweed River catchment flows that would “hold back” tidal water from the weir. “When catchment flows increase, the fresh flows from the upper Tweed typically dominate the tide and force the saltier water down the estuary away from the weir, reducing the risk of saltwater infiltration into the weir pool,” the report found. “Historically, water levels in the weir pool

have exceeded the weir level approximately 75 per cent of the time. “This means that the majority of the time, the upstream inflow has at least some capacity to prevent the ingress of tidal waters into the pool.” Climate change is projected to have various and widespread impacts on climatic systems across the world including the Tweed River system. “While sea level rise is likely to pose the greatest impact on the risk of tidal ingress into the Bray Park Weir pool, changes to the upstream catchment flows may impact on the capacity of the catchment flows to mitigate the risk of ingress,” the report said. “Investigations completed by the NSW Office of Environment and Heritage (AdaptNSW) generally show that rainfall in coastal northern NSW is expected to increase in spring and autumn, and decrease in summer and winter (with a total annual mean rainfall increase over the year) in the medium term (to 2039). “It is acknowledged that there is a high degree of uncertainty in estimating the impacts of climate change on catchment flows in the Tweed River beyond this point.”

TWEED VALLEY Wildlife Carers (TVWC) are calling for residents and visitors to the Tweed Shire to slow down on country roads after four Echidnas were killed at Terranora and Bilambil in the past two weeks. TVWC president Jan Pilgrim said the situation was becoming worse every year for the native Echidnas, who are busy finding burrows during the Spring months and often cross the roads in search of a mate. “Spring is a busy time for the animals,” she said. “They become more active, waking up after winter and looking for food and a mate. “Some animals, like Echidnas, don’t like the heat and are preparing to become dormant so are looking for a place to burrow. “Pythons are waking up and like to warm up on the roads. These and the wallabies, birds and possums are most often hit by cars.” Mrs Pilgrim said main thoroughfares were hazardous places for wildlife, especially where there are bends and blind spots. “We are now rescuing a lot of animals around the new housing estates, where animal habitat is being removed,” she said. “Bilambil, Terranora and Tyalgum Roads, Tweed Valley Way and the Pacific Highway are death traps, as are the main roads around Bray Park and Pottsville. “Of course, Clothiers Creek Road, which connects Murwillumbah to the coast, is always a hot spot. Two koalas have been killed there this year.” The Weekly asked Mrs Pilgrim how drivers can avoid killing or injuring animals on the road. “Speed kills. Slow down, especially at dawn and dusk,” she said. “Just because the speed limit is 80km, this doesn’t mean that people have to drive this fast. “If you do hit an animal, please stop and try to save it, it needs your help. Please call TVWC on our hotline number: (02) 6672 4789. We are open 24/7.” Mrs Pilgrim said there were very few studies done on Echidnas and very little is known about them in general. “The Echidna has survived from before the time of the dinosaurs and is one of the

aboriginal totems of this area,” she said. “Echidnas give birth to only one young at a time. The babies (known as puggles) take a long time to reach maturity so they cannot replace themselves easily. “Numbers are assumed to be dwindling but an official count has not been done.” TVWC is a charity that was founded in 1992 to look after the wildlife of the Tweed Valley. “We operate under a license from the NSW government and our dedicated and hardworking members are especially trained to rescue and rehabilitate wildlife,” Mrs Pilgrim said. “If you would like to join us, please call our hotline to register for our next Orientation Day which will be held in Murwillumbah at the Community College on Sunday, November 19, from 10am – 4pm. “We always need new members. If you can’t rescue and care for animals, administrative and backup help would be welcome.”

More information about Echidnas

Echidnas are truly amazing animals. There are only two species of monotremes (egglaying mammals) found in the world, the Echidna and the Platypus. Echidnas are extremely smart, strong and long lived. They can live to 40 years of age. They can climb, dig and swim. They do not shoot poison quills at people, which is something we are often asked about. However, their quills are very strong and can puncture a car tyre. You cannot tell by looking at them how old they are, or even if they are male or female. Their sexual organs are internal and both males and females can appear to have pouches. Puggles stay in the mum’s pouch, suckling milk from her until they begin to grow spines. Then the mum walls her baby up in a burrow. She will leave it to go and feed herself and return to dig up the burrow and look after her baby. If she dies, the baby will die too. If an Echidna fractures its beak (nose) in a motor vehicle collision, it will usually need to be euthanised, as its beak is very sensitive and is used for eating ants and termites, breathing, sensing movement, sensing heat and smelling.

Love will win.

MEMBERS FROM the Northern Rivers Guardians have slammed the response from the NSW Environment Protection Agency and State Government around logging at Boormans Road in Limpinwood amid allegations the company, Hewittville Pty Ltd, is allegedly profiting from already felled trees. Concerned residents gathered at Boormans Road on Sunday, October 1, brandishing signs reading “EPA Do Your Job” and “Fishy Business” in response to what residents said have been lengthy delays in responding to community concerns. The group said the gathering was in response to the lack of effective action by the NSW Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). “Officers from the EPA and Tweed Shire Council visited the logging site recently, and apparently told the Hewittville proprietor that he may take out logs already cut, but not to cut down more trees until matters are further investigated,” a statement from the Northern Rivers Guardians reads. Long-time Limpinwood resident Susie Hearder said she was told this would mean about eight more trucks, which could come out carrying logs. “It would appear that Hewittville is being allowed to profit from trees being cut down in an Environmental Protection Zone without authorisation,” she said. “This sends a very bad message to other landholders that they can break the rules with impunity. “The EPA should hand over compliance to Tweed Shire Council in the short term but the licence needs to be revoked as it is unfair to expect tax payers or ratepayers to continually bear the costs.”

Mrs Hearder said five Government agencies were now involved in compliance issues on the property so far with claims that“many of the breaches are being repeated”. Local residents saw koalas fleeing from the logging and wrote to Minister for the Environment Gabrielle Upton with their concerns for koalas and other threatened species on the property being logged, which includes marbled frogmouths, masked owls and glossy black cockatoos. The Weekly also contacted Mrs Upton’s office with the questions referred back to the EPA. An EPA spokesperson said it could not comment on the specific questions including whether the logging operator was in breach, until an upcoming meeting with Council to discuss the outcomes of the investigation. “Since the property was purchased by Hewittville in 2013 there has been repeated unauthorised works resulting in significant environmental damage and multiple pollution events. Hopping Dicks Creek was once home to many platypus, but erosion has silted up their pools,” Ms Hearder said. On September 7, Councillors carried a unanimous vote to contact the NSW Environment Minister Gabrielle

Upton in person and ask her to revoke the Private Native Forestry (PNF) Agreement. “We have not heard back from the Minister directly, but the EPA have agreed to a meet with us,” Ms Hearder said. Scott Sledge, President of the Northern Rivers Guardians, said that the system of voluntary compliance to the Private Native Forestry Code of Conduct needs to change as it allows landholders to log native forests with no assessment until well after the events. “A detailed assessment of native forests for wildlife habitat needs to be done before any future agreements are issued for logging on private land,” he said. “I believe that only a big fine and cancellation of this PNF Agreement will deter rogue operators. “The NSW government needs to direct the Council to monitor the site. The small fines imposed on Hewittville for previous breaches seem to have had little effect.” YOUR THOUGHTS: Do you believe the EPA response has fallen short of community expectations?

LAST WEEKEND marked six months since the devastating impact of the Tweed flood that rewrote local history books and resulted in a mammoth clean-up effort that continues today. The floods were a result of ex-tropical cyclone Debbie from the north that combined with a low-pressure system from the south, meeting over the Tweed Shire and dumping a deluge, the likes of which had never been recorded before. While it may appear as though many businesses and residents have simply picked up the pieces and started again, many families are still carrying the costs and are battling with insurance claims, damage repairs and maintenance bills, not to mention health concerns both physically and mentally. The University Centre for Rural Health (UCRH) has recently launched the ‘After the Flood’ survey for both the Tweed Shire and Lismore Shire to gain a greater insight into the widespread impacts. “This Community Resilence Project is calling on all residents of the Northern Rivers to complete the survey (www. ucrh.edu.au) to help support our ongoing recovery and future responses to disasters,” a media statement from the UCRH said. The Weekly caught up with several local politicians this week to ask them about the recovery process, lessons learnt and where help remains. Member for Lismore Thomas George outlined the number of category C funding grants had been provided so far, as well as developing a plan with Tweed Shire Council to shift industrial sites, such as Murwillumbah South, out of floodplains. “I have never seen a water event like it in all my time here,” he said. “A lot of people were impacted and many

continue to feel the impacts six months on. “In the area around 83 primary producers were provided Category C grant funding with only nine knock backs totalling around $923,000 in grant funds. “126 small businesses with 13 declined, have also been supplied under the grant funding totalling $1.47 million, while notfor-profits had three approved totalling $25,000.” Mr George said other applications were currently being considered and around 100 cases remain with the Business Commissioner. “I am also working with Tweed Shire Council to develop a strategy to move floodplain industrial areas as a preventative measure for future flooding,” he said. “Council have done a fantastic job finding ways to improve Murwillumbah’s flood strategy.” Mr George also reinforced the promises made by NSW Premier Gladys Berejiklian, who said insurance companies needed to step up and support those impacted. “I continue to have talks with both the Premier and Deputy Premier who are in regular contact with the Insurance Council of Australia, with a further meeting coming up,” he said. Meanwhile, Federal Member for Richmond Justine Elliot said many families impacted by the devastating flood were still facing challenges and she slammed both the Federal and State Government response. “Six months on from the floods and many local families and businesses are still facing so many challenges following this devastating event,” she said. “The Government’s refusal to properly provide substantial long term financial assistance has directly resulted in local families, businesses and Tweed Council

Road repairs continue

Flood survey launched

UCRH Director Ross Bailie said the health priorities of the region are the core business of the UCRH’s survey and in particular mental health. “We’re working in partnership with a large range of community and business organisations, local and state government agencies to ensure this research is relevant to the needs of the community.” “This is an opportunity to turn our flood stories into the evidence we need, to help policy makers understand where the gaps in services are, and what works best for community recovery,” Professor Bailie said. This survey is for everyone 16 years and over, whether your home, business or property was flooded or not, across the Lismore, Richmond Valley, Tweed, Ballina, Byron and Kyogle local government areas. The survey is available online at www. ucrh.edu.au. Paper surveys will be available at libraries, Lifeline, Salvation Army and St Vincent De Paul stores. Or by calling UCRH on 6620 7570 The Small Business Commissioner, Robyn Hobbs, is also working to assist the business community with issues around insurance claims and has just lodged two bulk submissions to the Financial Ombudsman Services. A third submission will be made in the coming weeks. If you or someone you know has a business claim still to be determined, or your claim has been declined please contact the Office of the NSW Small Business Commissioner at admin.team@smallbusiness.nsw.gov.au or 0477 712 155 for assistance. Category C applications remain open until October 13 (round 1) and November 24 (round 2). Assistance is available to complete the paperwork via NORTEC Small Business Solutions, the Business Connect provider. Call 1300 134 359 to access a business advisor.

Feeling Dizzy?

You could have a balance or vestibular disorder

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

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

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

Road and infrastructure remain a major dilemma for Tweed Shire Council who provided The Weekly with a range of staggering figures this week following the Tweed flood. Council assets suffered $40 million in damages, with a possible shortfall after insurance of $12 million to $13 million “1550 road damages items were identified after the floods and Council has repaired some 900 minor damage items at a cost of $5.2 million,” the Council statement reads. “A total of $22.2 million of repair work is yet to be scheduled and Council has enlisted six contract firms to undertake medium and major road repairs. “This work will be packaged into four or five packages and then the contractors will be invited to quote on the packages as they are released. The first package has been released and is expected to be awarded this week. “The Federal Government’s Bridge Renewal Program has granted $2.17 million in funds (50 per cent) towards the replacement of Byrrill Creek Bridge and Council is negotiating with Roads and Maritime Services as to whether NDRRA funding can be used for some of the remaining budget shortfall to get that project happening.” When asked what Council had learned from the 2017 Tweed flood, Council said the disaster had confirmed Council’s flood modelling. “The March 2017 flood essentially confirmed Council’s flood modelling,” the statement reads. “The March 2017 flood doubled Council’s annual workload in construction, contracts

and plant and fleet procurement. “Council has engaged extra contract resources to undertake flood recovery works, which could take a full three years to complete. Council was asked what advice it would give to ratepayers to prepare and be ready for natural disasters. “The March 2017 flood was the largest flood seen in many locations across Tweed Shire. It occurred from a relatively short storm event and a far greater flood is possible,” Council’s statement reads. “Council’s primary message to the community is to be aware of your flood risk, know your local flood behaviour and have a flood plan in place. “The community needs to develop and rely on its own resilience rather than wait for emergency services to intervene. “When emergency services do intervene, please follow their instructions.”

Inasmuch as human interpretations and blind imitations differ widely, religious strife and disagreement have arisen among mankind, the light of true religion has been extinguished and the unity of the world of humanity destroyed. The prophets of God voiced the spirit of unity and agreement. They have been the founders of divine reality (From Bahá’í writings)

continuing to desperately struggle with massive costs and repairs as a result of the floods. “I continue to be contacted by many locals unhappy with the negative responses from their insurance companies. “I’ll keep making representations on behalf of any locals who need assistance and urge them to contact me. “I applaud the outstanding community spirit witnessed during the flood and I would like to especially commend the SES, Police and Emergency Services for their remarkable commitment during this time.” Murwillumbah and District Business Chamber presidents Ilze Jaunberzins said she felt future preparations need to involve consultation with the SES, but urged residents to take the University survey. “I think the research being undertaken by the University of Rural Research will bring rich data for us to use- there are two prongs to the data - General community and Business - we are having Dr Sabrina Pit speak to the Business Chamber Breakfast this coming Friday, October 6 at Murwillumbah Services Club (6.30am),” she said.

Property prices booming across Tweed Shire THE TWEED continues to show strong growth across the real estate sector with much of the interest on the Tweed Coast but there’s also been growing demand in the Valley during the past quarter with Uki prices increasing by almost $50,000 in less than three months. The Weekly caught up with several Tweed real estate agents this week to get their views on the Spring sales period and what both buyers and sellers can expect. First National Murwillumbah licensed real estate agent Sally Mather said the housing market in Murwillumbah remained strong with interest increasing. “We are receiving numerous enquiries daily from buyers wanting to move to or invest in Murwillumbah and the surrounds,” she said. “This financial year we have had 22 properties settled and currently have 23 under contract. During September our office listed 19 properties with a mix of residential and rural. “We are expecting to have a good couple of months with our past appraisals planning to list in Spring and usually it’s a very busy time up until Christmas Eve.” With the best time to sell fast approaching, The Weekly spoke with Sally to get an idea of what advice she would give to anyone considering selling. “If you are going to sell your property, try to do it whilst there isn’t much competition,” she said. “You’re more likely to achieve a higher price and a shorter sale time. “Prepare your home by giving it a good spring clean, tidying gardens and attending to any broken fittings, I have a great checklist available if anyone would like one.” Sally said the Tweed Valley is extremely popular with buyers and investors from all over the country at the moment.

“The Tweed Valley property market is growing and we live in such a sought after, beautiful area,” she said. “With so much to offer, buyers from all regions are making the move to enjoy our country towns and coastal beaches. “Investors are also taking advantage of our great rental yields and high rental demand.” LJ Hooker Kingscliff Principal Paul McMahon has 28 years of real estate experience across the Tweed Shire and said the Tweed Coast remained a “very strong market”. “It’s getting to the point where bottom line prices are around $750,000 for a threebedroom property in Kingcliff and some parts of Casuarina,” he said. “There’s also Cabarita and Pottsville which are seeing strong growth and demand.” Mr McMahon said Kingscliff has a strong market but remains small. “It’s all based around lifestyle across the Tweed, it’s an amazing location close to an international airport, close the Gold Coast without living on the Gold Coast as well as great schools and the lifestyle,” Mr McMahon said. “As well as retirees there’s also been an increase in young families looking for their first home or those growing families looking to upsize.” Mr McMahon gave some great advice for anyone considering selling during Spring. “Clearly presentation sells,” he said. “Don’t leave things out including painting and gardening, make the home comfortable for viewers and something they could see themselves living in. “Agents are also your biggest help, they should know enough to present your property right and market the property, while you need to remember that a property is worth what a buyer is willing to pay.”

International visitors driving Tweed tourism boom TWEED INTERNATIONAL visitor nights have skyrocketed by 70 per cent to more than 290,000 nights compared to the previous 12 months, according to the latest Destination Tweed quarterly report released this week. The report highlighted increases for Tweed tourism across the board with the biggest year for Tweed tourism on record and projections for further tourism gains in the coming Christmas and 2018 periods. The report, which will be reviewed by Tweed Shire Councillors this week, highlighted a range of areas where strong tourism growth had been measured including 658,000 domestic overnight visitors, which is a 5.6 per cent increase on the previous year and a record breaking figure.

Other gains were seen in domestic day trip visitors which was 1.26 million, up 17.2 per cent on the previous 12 months. Another great win for Tweed tourism came from international visitors with a 33 per cent increase in overnight visitors to 23,600 and 70 per cent increase in nights. International visitors are now staying for longer with their average stay now a whooping ten nights or more, to discover and reveal the natural wonders of the Tweed Shire. The report also highlighted several television promotions being held across the Tweed Shire including the rescheduled Channel Nine Today Show. The Today Show was recently highlighted on ABC’s Media Watch as charging several Councils across Australia for fees incurred

by the production. Fortunately, Tweed Shire Council’s Director Community and Natural Resources, Tracey Stinson, confirmed Council and Destination Tweed, funded by Council, was not paying any costs to host the October 13 on-location broadcast of the Today Show at the Tweed Regional Gallery & Margaret Olley Art Centre. “After looking at a number of potential sites in the area, the Nine Network approached Council and the Gallery to request having the broadcast on the Gallery grounds,” Mrs Stinson said. “We are very excited to be hosting the cast, the crew and locals in the audience for what will be fantastic promotion of the Tweed and our treasured Gallery.”

Grog free zones to continue TWEED SHIRE Councillors have voted to continue alcohol-free zones across the Tweed Shire, established in 2013, which ban the consumption of alcohol in public and are aimed at curbing anti-social behaviour. Councillors carried a unanimous vote to place the alcoholfree zones on public exhibition for 30 days. Once approved, which is likely, the alcohol-free zones will be in place for another four years. It’s interesting to note that Murwillumbah is among the most featured town across the Shire with the most streets banned from drinking booze. Salt has the least amount of streets banned with alcohol consumption permitted all but on New Years Eve from 4pm until 10am on Monday January 1. Among the areas banned include areas central to Tweed Heads South, Kingscliff, Cabarita Beach, and Murwillumbah. Murwillumbah has a total of 32 streets, parks, laneways and streets that fall under the alcohol ban which includes Knox Park, Budd Park and public car parking areas. The banning of alcohol in public includes all times and days of the week and covers areas over roads, footpaths, and public carparks for a maximum period of four years expiring no later than December 1, 2021. Although drinking is permitted outside of the exclusion zones the law states that a NSW Police Officer can instruct a person to tip out the contents or cease drinking alcohol especially in the case where other anti-social behaviour is taking place.

Suncorp update on storm claims INSURANCE COMPANY Suncorp says it has now finalised three quarters of the almost 20,000 claims received in the aftermath of the Tweed storm and flood. Suncorp received more than 16,000 home claims and more than 1,400 business claims across the Northern Rivers and south-east Queensland after ex-tropical cyclone Debbie devastated a widespread area in March this year. Suncorp’s Chief Executive Officer Insurance Anthony Day reassured customers that Suncorp was working hard to finalise all remaining claims as soon as possible. “It typically takes up to 12 months to resolve all claims following such a large and severe weather event,” Mr Day said in a Suncorp media statement. “We understand this is a difficult time for our customers and we are committed to getting people’s lives back on track quickly.” Mr Day said improved systems and processes had allowed Suncorp to resolve home claims faster than in previous major cyclones including Yasi and Marcia. “Cyclone Debbie was one of the most powerful storm systems in the past decade. It impacted communities stretched across more than 1,000 kilometres in two states,” Mr Day said. “Despite the scale of this weather event, Suncorp’s claims team has resolved an average of 80 claims per day over the past six months. “Approximately 4,000 home repair jobs are completed and another 1,500 are currently underway. More than 11,500 customers have also received cash settlements to replace their contents or manage their own repairs. “Suncorp is also working with more than 350 local tradies which will be a real boost to the local economy.” • • • • • •

THE AUSTRALIAN Centre for Autism and Neurodevelopment (AusCan), based at Tweed Heads, hosted an open day this week to demonstrate and encourage residents to discover the groundbreaking treatments available. AusCan’s treatments track and monitor brain waves and use simple training techniques to stimulate new pathways and ultimately achieve optimal brain patterns. The treatments have shown remarkable progress in children with autism and other brain related conditions, however the treatment has also proven beneficial for high functioning individuals and even to reduce anxiety. The Weekly recently spoke to AusCan Clinical Director Nerida Saunders to find out more about the services and who should be using them. “Everyone,” she said. “The services offered at AusCan specialise in therapy for neurodevelopmental disorders and can assist people in all walks of life from those with autism to training peak performance for athletes, cognitive enhancement in high functioning individuals, anxiety reduction, and recovery from a number of brain injuries just to name a few.” Mrs Saunders said retraining the brain has been studied since the late 1960s when groundbreaking research showed it was possible to retrain the brain. “As technology advances, as does our ability to identify and change undesirable brain activity,” she said. “We are learning more every day, however there is consistency in the research that our services are indeed effective. “Our senior Neurocoach and Neurofeedback Practitioner Rustam Yumash has recently spent time in America learning new Neurofeedback techniques with Susan Othmer, the Clinical Director of the EEG Institute, to bring home to AusCan.” Finally, a big area of the service is assisting

children with Autism and is funded under the National Insurance Disability Scheme. “Did you know that in the Autism Spectrum population, approximately 40 per cent of individuals experience eleptiform seizure activity,” Dr Yumash said. “This often goes unnoticed and can contribute to a number of behavioural and psychological symptoms. “At AusCan, we complete full brain function profiles for our clients which can reveal this activity if it is occurring and research has shown that rolandic seizure activity can be significantly reduced with the brain training that we perform at our clinic. “Neurofeedback has been shown to be effective in treatment of a number of disorders including, but not limited to: anxiety, depression, chronic fatigue, fibromyalgia, sleep disorders, obsessive-compulsive disorder, Parkinson’s tremors, autism spectrum disorder, and generally enhanced cognitive ability and memory.” The centre is also arranging another open day for the community to get a glimpse of the possibilities on Wednesday, November 15.

Happy Day for mental health awareness TWEED SHIRE residents are being encouraged to share their journeys with mental health as part of Mental Health Awareness month this October and a free Community Happy Day at Jack Evans Boat Harbour, Tweed Heads, on Thursday, October 12 from 10am to 2pm. Open Minds case worker Nicole Campbell said Mental Health month is about promoting awareness of Mental Health, and removing the stigma and discrimination that people may face. “Community Happy Day supports Mental Health month by providing people in the community a day to come and be a part of an event that promotes social connections, and to enjoy good times,” she said. “The event will have information stalls, coffee and tea, a barbeque, face painting, yoga, meditation, pot a plant, makeup and arts and crafts. Mrs Campbell said there were numerous benefits of joining Happy Day. “A sense of well-being, feeling part of a community, talking with people and locals, relaxing by potting a plant, enjoying some music, yoga for a sense of calming and generally a day of feel good activities to leave

us feeling happy and stress-free,” she said. Meanwhile, Youth Off the Streets operator Father Chris Riley wrote to The Weekly to encourage everyone to think about mental health and the wellbeing of both yourself and those around you. “The journey to positive mental health is not a journey we should walk alone,” he said. “I have been working with disadvantaged young people for over 40 years and each person I work with has their own unique story and journey to share. “I encourage them to connect with trusted family and friends to share their journey towards better mental health, and I am asking you to do the same. “Mental health issues affect everyone. Whether or not you yourself are experiencing mental illness there is always someone around you who is. “As a community we need to look out for each other and that begins with talking. “This World Mental Health Day, I urge you to support each other and in particular support our young people in starting conversations.” To find out more visit www.1010.org.au/ for more information.

According to extracts from the book a mysterious woman laid a wreath on the grave of a hero, a man killed at the landings and awarded a Victoria Cross. “There were two women who truly loved this man. Was the visitor a dedicated nurse and hospital founder who saved the lives of thousands in a 50-year career - a woman awarded medals by Britain, France and Turkey,” an extract from the book reads. “Or was it a famous explorer, fluent in Arabic and Persian, a friend of the famous including T E Lawrence and Winston Churchill and the only female delegate among thousands at the Paris Peace Conference in 1919.” Mr Howell has received rave reviews for his presentations and research in uncovering an untold story from Gallipoli. ‘The Only Woman at Gallipoli’ is Mr Howell’s first book after his retirement from his profession as an engineer who lives in Eastern Melbourne. The research became a voyage of discovery for Mr Howell who scoured through libraries all over Australia, to Turkey, and unseen diaries and love letters in London's Imperial War Museum and Northern England. A story was unearthed, as he found and assembled pieces of a jigsaw puzzle without really knowing how good the final picture would be. There are 310 pages, including 20 pages of special notes, acknowledgements, and a bibliography. There are more than 60 photographs, four maps, and even several poems.

THE TWEED River Committee has missed out on securing a World War II hospital vessel known as AH1733 Krawarree to be located at Dry Dock Road, Tweed Heads South, due to complications with the ownership of the dock. Tweed River Committee member and Classic Boat Regatta president Robert Modystack told The Weekly the committee had been given authority by Tweed Shire Council to use the dry dock to moor the iconic vessel in desperate need of refurbishment. It was set to be a lifeline for the vessel as it is currently located at a lot in the Gold Coast where it’s deteriorating in the weather and covered in graffiti. “We had permission to use the dock by Council, however once we went to take measurements and photos of the dock we were approached by an official and told the site was not available,” Mr Modystack said. “It turns out the dock is owned by the Lands Department who have a lease with the Australian Army and are in turn leasing the dock to the Australian Navy. “It’s very disappointing because the regatta was set to welcome a piece of World War II history to Dry Dock Road, to be used to

restore a piece of army history.” Mr Modystack said it wasn’t the end of the road for the vessel and there’s been fresh interest from a business owner in Brunswick Heads, who’s redeveloping part of the fishing trawler mooring site. The vessel, which is the sole survivor of five hospital vessels, has been in the hands of Gold Coast Council for the past 16 years. Mr Modystack had previously wrote to Tweed Shire Council to take advantage of recently granted permission to remove the vessel. “It is currently located in Heritage Park, Pimpama, where it is in danger of being vandalised,” he said. The Krawarree was built to ferry war wounded from the shores of the Pacific Islands to waiting Hospital Ships during the latter part of World War II. Built of huon pine in Tasmania, the vessel was fastened with copper in order to avoid magnetic mines laid by the Japanese. Meanwhile, the Tweed River Classic Boat Regatta will take place on Saturday, October 15, from 12pm to 5pm from the Ivory Tavern at Tweed Heads. The regatta will feature around 40 classic vessels.

Pick up a bargain at Eastcoast Auto Auctions

Eastcoast Auto Auctions onsite Sales Executive Zac Launchberry has a bargain offer for your next secondhand car purchase including these beauties. Inset images are respective interiors.

SECONDHAND VEHICLES at the recently established Eastcoast Auto Auctions at Chinderah are flying off the lot with bargains across a range of makes and models at highly competitive prices. The dealership opened in May this year and is offering more than 150 cars at 15 Ozone Street Chinderah. Owner Adam Hall has a stockpile of tradein vehicles from one of the largest dealers on the Tweed Coast which also means great prices. “We also offer trade-in or you can even sell your own car on the lot,” he said.

Mr Hall said the site took about 12 months to prepare after it was a former wrecking yard, but has since been transformed into a modern, purpose built sales warehouse. “We’ve spent a lot of time getting it up to the current standard and because the site is not on a main road, we have the added advantage of offering lower prices,” he said. Plus, if you’re feeling lucky you can also make a realistic bid on a car. “Come and have a browse, if you like something place a bid on it,” Mr Hall said. The Weekly visited the lot this week to catch up with onsite Sales Executive Zac

Launchberry, who happened to have two great trade-in cars to feature this week. First up was the 2001 Patrol Turbo Diesel four-wheel-drive in great condition. “This is a great price for this Patrol,” Zac said. “The interior is in perfect condition as well as a bull bar, weather shield bonnet protector and BFG All Terrain Tyres.” “It’s currently listed at $10,950, but as a special for The Weekly readers I can do $10,450, or $500 off the marked price.” The second new car, from the range of more than 100, was the sporty yet spacious

AUTOMOTIVE SUSPENSION & EXHAUST

2011 Mazda CX7 2.3 Turbo Petrol fourwheel-drive. “This is an awesome car, it has some great features including reverse camera, fog lights, cruise control as well as being a power house with dual exhaust,” Zac said. “This is currently listed for $14,250 but for The Weekly readers we can do it at 13,750.” Anyone wanting to find out more can speak to Eastcoast Auto Auctions by phone on: (02) 6674 2317 or visit the lot at 15 Ozone Street.

A DRIVE through the beautiful Tweed Valley or a drive to the coast may be just the thing to bring your family closer together according to research that found spending time in the car with family can be an excellent bonding session. The research, recently released by Ford Australia, found that while 95 per cent of parents feel family drives present an excellent opportunity for bonding, screen time was invading the experience. A substantial 76 per cent of parents with children aged 3 to 16 years said their child is typically on a device or watching digital media during this time. An increasing reliance on our devices makes going screen-free a challenge – for adults and children alike. Practicing psychologist and Australian social commentator Sabina Read said it was a habit Australian families should try to break. “It’s worrying that these days people often seem more connected to a virtual world than to their own family, friends and what’s really around them,” she said.

“It’s important to find ways to escape our devices and reconnect with each other. “As hard as it may be, parents, partners and friends can reclaim personal and family time by going screen-free, such as on weekend excursions or a Sunday drive. “Research tells us that car trips can provide a great social connection point, so it’s a worthwhile space and time Aussies should consider for family bonding and play.” Survey findings show that time in the car can help spark kids’ imaginations and get them chatting, and it doesn’t take long for them to open up either. Almost half (48 per cent) of kids will open up within five minutes of being in the car, while 92 per cent will open up within half an hour. For couples and friends taking a drive without kids, family still comes first, with 32 per cent of survey respondents noting ‘family’ as the number one topic of meaningful discussion in the car. This was followed by ‘plans for the future’ (18 per cent), and ‘school/work’ (14 per cent). Almost half (48 per cent) of those aged 18-34 years old felt the car was a safe space to discuss planning a family.

kingscliff Return of iconic Duck Race

THE KINGSCLIFF Rotary Club Duck Race is back this year with plenty of excitement for the community after the event was postponed in 2016 due to the Cudgen Creek bridge upgrade. The Duck Race is schedule to take place on Sunday, October 22, at Ed Parker Rotary Park, Kingscliff, from 9am. Ducks, priced at $5 for small and $50 for corporate ducks, have already exceeded expectations with around 500 small ducks purchased and almost 40 corporate ducks sold. Kingscliff Rotary Club member and coorganiser Jayne Henry said the return of the duck race would go a long way in assisting the club with maintenance and new facilities at Ed Parker Rotary Park. “Members of the Kingscliff Rotary Club would like to encourage community members and local businesses to purchase their ducks this year,” she said. “The funds go a long way in keeping the park facilities up to date.” Of course, the main event on the day is the famous duck race across two divisions and there are also prizes for the best dressed

duck. Ms Henry said the Tweed Heads Men’s Shed have created some amazing trophies for the winners. “We’re expecting a huge turnout this year and would love for more local businesses and residents to get involved.” To find out more and purchase your duck visit: www.kingscliffrotary.com.au/store/ corporate-duck-registration-2017/

Tweed Coast Holiday Parks Kingscliff Beach to open earlier than planned

MAJOR REDEVELOPMENT works to the Kingscliff Foreshore and new Kingcliff Holiday Park are progressing at a rapid rate with the official reopening of the park to the public on April 13, 2018, which is much earlier than the previously forecast mid-year opening. The redevelopment of the park has recently hit the halfway point and bookings for the revamped sites are forecast to open in 2018, with a date to be announced in the coming months. The Holiday Park redevelopment is part of a $21.2 million Kingscliff Foreshore Revitalisation project to enhance and protect the foreshore, which includes the construction of a permanent sea wall to protect the coastline, a major redevelopment of Kingscliff Beach Holiday Park and the

creation of Kingscliff ‘Central Park’. Tweed Coast Holiday Parks Unit Coordinator Andrew Illingworth said the redevelopment is coming along really well. “We have received so many enquiries asking when the park will reopen so it’s really exciting to be able to finally announce a date, and a much earlier date than was initially forecast,” he said. The new Holiday Park at Kingscliff Beach will provide holiday makers with modern accommodation and facilities, in a beautiful beachfront setting, in the heart of Kingscliff. Local businesses will benefit from visitors staying and spending in the area and the new Kingscliff ‘Central Park’ will provide a space for locals and holiday makers to come together. Project progress to date includes the

completion of the 500-metre-long permanent seawall from the northern end of the Holiday Park to the southern end of Cudgen Surf Lifesaving Club, as well as completion of the concrete steps at the seawall’s southern end, linking Kingscliff ‘Central Park’ to the beach. The Kingscliff ‘Central Park’ is now taking shape with the implementation of concrete paths in the area fronting the cenotaph. There has been recent debate over the naming of the ‘Central Park’ with residents suggesting the park be named after a Kingscliff local such as Stephanie Gilmore or an Indiegenous name. Tweed Shire Councillor Warren Polglase said he will the raise the issue with Council and thanked the Kingscliff community for their input.

“To all those who have put forward ideas regarding the new Kingscliff Foreshore Redeveopment I appreciate your engagement on this matter. “I will now take this issue to council and seek their support to consult with the Kingscliff community for a suitable name change The Tweed Coast Holiday Parks office building has also been relocated and now fronts onto Marine Parade, which will be staffed by The Visitor Information Centre volunteers over the remaining months of the redevelopment project, providing a space for members of the community to drop in and ask questions about the redevelopment.

Kingscliff HIRE

THE FALLS Festival Foster a Band competition is back for another year and The Weekly has nominated Tweed favourites Round Mountain Girls, for the chance to perform on one of the biggest rock stages in Australia. Last year Matty Rogers was nominated by The Weekly and went on to perform an outstanding set at the Falls Festival to a huge crowd. The Weekly and Round Mountain Girls are now calling for residents to show their support by voting for the band via the Falls Festival ‘Foster a Band’ website (see below). As Tweed Shire locals, Round Mountain Girls have developed one of the best folk rock sounds on the Northern Rivers and arguably the country. While well known by many Tweed residents for their local gigs, Round Mountain Girls have recently become hot property performing at Blues Fest in Byron Bay as well as touring internationally in the UK and most recently on cruise ships. The five-piece band had its humble beginnings in a shed atop an isolated outcrop at Round Mountain where the Girls were brought together for pure musical gratification. The band brings a thrilling live performance and have quickly become known for their get-up and dance tunes having released their fifth studio album ‘Meet You At The End’ earlier this year. The band members include Francois

DeKlerk on drums, Chris Brooker on guitar, mandolin and vocals, Rabbit Robinson on fiddle and vocals, Chris Willoughby on bass and Chris Eaton on banjo, guitar and vocals. “We’d really like to thank Tweed Valley Weekly for this nomination,” Mr Eaton said. “We are now calling on our local fans to get behind us and get those nominations in to help us perform for the first time at Falls Festival under Foster a Band.” Bluesfest Touring and Marketing Manager Rusty Thorpe said Round Mountain Girls have an insanely infectious bunch of songs. “As insane as the mix of characters in the band - and it’s impossible not to be caught up in their infectious Celt-country blend of roots music. I defy you to sit still,” Mr Thorpe said. Tweed residents can show their support for Round Mountain Girls by voting at the Falls Festival Foster a Band website: fallsfestival. com/byron-bay/goings-on/foster-a-band/ voting - alternatively you can contact The Weekly on (02) 6672 4443.

Tweed loses a blues icon

Boral aids river bank restoration project

It is with great sadness that I write an obituary for an widely loved man who passed away late on Sunday, October 1. James T, the â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Cincinnati Catâ&#x20AC;?, was born in southern Ohio to Jeanne and Patrick Thornbury, a loved son and an adored brother to ten siblings. He spent his early years in northern Kentucky at about the same time that rock â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;nâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; roll was born in America. The young man was so moved by what he heard that he gave himself a mission â&#x20AC;&#x201C; he would be a real working musician by age 22 or succumb to the workaday world. Texas blues rocker Lanny Ray offered James his first tour of the States. This tour lasted five years. His great natural talent developed quickly and the young James was invited to play with many luminaries of American blues. In 1984, Henry Vestine, founding member of Canned Heat came across James performing in Oregon; the two hit it off famously and joined forces. Not long after that he was invited to join Henry Vestine, Larry Taylor and Fito De La Parra as a member of Canned Heat. James T then spent the next ten years touring the world playing stadiums and huge festivals as singer, guitarist and harp player with this great band. James T shared the stage with many great musicians in his time including John Lee Hooker, Junior Watson, Albert King and Harvey Mandel. James told me his most memorable moments were performing with musicians of this calibre. He toured

A TEAM of volunteers from Conservation Volunteers Australia (CVA) will help restore the banks of the Tweed River throughout the month of October following the devastating Tweed flood. Teams will volunteer their time to plant native trees, shrubs and ground covers on damaged banks to improve habitat for local species, reduce environmental weed impacts and restore a critical part of the Tweed drinking water catchment. Flood debris clean-up will also be undertaken at â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Uki beachâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;, a popular swimming spot on the Tweed River. Last month CVA visited Crabbes Creek Primary School to help restore the schoolâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s outdoor learning and play areas. The teams re-established garden beds and also carried out activities that included weeding, planting and mulching. This project was made possible by Boral Ltd who made a generous donation to support the disaster recovery work in the region. The donation complements the Boral Connected Communities Program managed by CVA supporting schools and communities to educate and inspire young Australians to take action for the future of their environment. This year Boral celebrates 30 years of partnership with Conservation Volunteers Australia (CVA), enhancing and restoring important green spaces shared by the community. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Boral already has a long-standing partnership with CVA which allows us to contribute to the communities in which we operate,â&#x20AC;? Michael Wilson, Group Health, Safety and Environment Director for Boral Ltd said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;However, we recognise communities sometimes need additional support, and for Crabbes Creek, we are pleased we could assist the school recover from the damaging cyclone so students could return to a safe learning environment.â&#x20AC;? Since 2012, Boral in partnership with CVA have supported 203 school projects, which have included the construction of frog ponds, kitchen gardens, indigenous food and sensory gardens, restoring wetland habitat areas and rejuvenating outdoor learning spaces.

He moved to Australia in 1995 after falling in love with the mother of his children, Mallika. His two daughters, Juliette and Dhyana, were his proudest achievements. He shone with pride when he spoke of them. Mallika and his daughters were with him throughout his illness and were there when he passed away. James T was a true gentleman, a humble and generous musician and a great friend who touched many with his kindness and wisdom.

O’Heart Festival gives thousands to flood appeal The Festival committee would also like to thank Mleeka Hart from the Minjungbal Cultural Centre for offering Welcome to Country at the opening ceremony, Troy Green General Manager of Tweed Shire Council, Natascha Wernick from Creative Caldera, Sue Sing from Planet Sing for being part of the Official Opening Ceremony as well as the many stallholders, presenters and teachers for sharing their knowledge talents and wisdom, and the locals who rolled up their sleeves and helped on the ground over the weekend. The Team are confident of the Festival’s growth in a sustainable way in the years to come, so save the date - the last weekend in August for the O’Heart Festival in Tyalgum.

FILMS th Mia wi

ON CHALLENGING MOVIES

I love movies that help us think about the past and the present, force us to look at the world from a different perspective and offer some hope about the possible future. Some of the movies coming our way will do exactly that. God’s Own Country is a 2017 British drama about a young sheep farmer in Yorkshire whose life is turned upside down by the arrival of a Romanian migrant worker. The film, which has already won several international awards, has been compared to Ang Lee’s Brokeback Mountain because of its story of two young men finding love in a hopeless place, but has also a pro-immigration subtext that is very timely amid the closing borders of Brexit-era Britain. The Oscar-nominated documentary I Am Not Your Negro takes us on a journey on the issue of race and civil rights through the life and mind of American writer James Baldwin, whose prophetic and brilliant voice speaks even more powerfully today than it did fifty years ago. His notion that a racist society not only oppresses but also hollows out the souls of those who are doing the oppressing, and that the “American racial problem” is not a racial problem but a crisis of the American spirit, with race as the excuse, echoes strongly in today’s world.

Even a less ‘challenging’ film like Stephen Frear’s Victoria and Abdul with its romanticized portrait of the unlikely friendship between Queen Victoria and an Indian clerk invites us to indirectly think about the problem of inequality and race – the movie has been defined as “Guess Who’s Coming to Dinner” served with mango chutney..!

THE ICONIC Tyalgum O’Heart Festival has raised $3,000 for the Tweed Mayoral Flood Appeal after local businesses dug deep to help during a lengthy recovery process. Held at the end of August, the Conscious Awakening Indie Folk festival brought together people from many walks of life, with a shared passion for music, environmental awareness, renewable energy, conscious living, and handmade arts and crafts. The event was sponsored by local businesses and members of the wider community, who shared the desire to participate in what is becoming a favourite festival in the Northern Rivers region. The Festival included more than 70 talented musicians from across the region who performed across seven music stages throughout Tyalgum village throughout the weekend. “The aim of our Festival is about opening the heart to love and compassion, and caring for our environment and for one another as human beings,” Festival committee member Kirra Springs said. “In the spirit of this, we were moved to hold a fundraiser as part of the Festival, in acknowledgment of the ordeal our local community has been through with the floods earlier this year,” she said. Tweed Shire Mayor Katie Milne spoke highly of the Festival’s fundraising efforts. “While the funding from the Tweed Mayoral Flood Appeal was distributed to most of the residents in need a while ago, now after the O’Heart Festival’s efforts Tweed residents affected by the floods will get a little extra bonus as a surprise,” Mayor Milne said. The O’Heart Festival team expressed their thanks to everyone who helped with the Festival and fundraising efforts. “We are boutique Festival only in our second year, and feel that being able to achieve $3,000 in fundraising after covering our costs, was a great outcome,” Kirra said.

CONCERT 2

THE MURWILLUMBAH Theatre Company will present the famed pantomime, Beauty and the Beast, from Friday, October 13, and this one is a must see. The traditional French fairytale Beauty and the Beast has been lovingly reinvented by renowned pantomime specialist Ben Crocker, with all the ingredients you’ve come to love including slapstick humour, witty repartee and the proverbial corny jokes. Mr Crocker is the greatest living writer in the discipline with AS Magazine describing him as the “wittiest and most inventive writer working in pantomime today”. There’s lots of audience participation and music too as you’d expect, as we meet a beauty, a beast, handsome prince, your typical cross-dressing dame, a giant, humanlike French poodle, a wicked witch and talking furniture. Beauty and the Beast is based on a French folk story in which Ma is lost in the woods and comes across the castle of a beast. The beast agrees to spare her life if he can have her daughter in exchange for riches. Beauty agrees to live in the castle where the two fall in love. It is a touching, scary, funny and engaging pantomime that is sure to delight the audience. Beauty and the Beast is proper pantomime - a good, wholesome traditional show that is

Advertorial

Baha’i Faith celebrates 200 years since passing of Baha’u’llah TWEED SHIRE members from the independent world religion Baha’i Faith are celebrating 200 years since the birth of the founder Baha’u’llah, with several local celebrations including hosting a community day on Sunday, October 22. The Weekly recently caught up with passionate followers of the Baha’i Faith including open day organiser Warwick Fordham, who shared some of his beliefs and greater insight into the Baha’i Faith. Q. Could you please tell readers a little about Bahá’u’lláh and the Bahá faith? “The Baha’i Faith is an independent world religion that has its central theme is that humanity is one family and that the time has come for its unification into a peaceful global society,” Mr Fordham said. “The Baha’i Faith was founded in Iran in 1844 and is now the second-most widely spread religion in the world. “There are more than five million Baha’is. They come from all backgrounds and can be found in virtually every country on earth.” Mr Fordham said the Founder of the Baha’i Faith, Baha’u’llah (1817-92), believed that throughout history God has revealed himself to humanity through a series of divine messengers, whose teachings guide and educate people and provide the basis for the advancement of human society. “These messengers have included Abraham, Krishna, Zoroaster, Moses, Buddha, Jesus, Muhammad, the Bab and Baha’u’llah,” Mr Fordham said. “Their religions come from the same divine source and are in essence successive chapters of one religion from God.

“Baha’u’llah proclaimed that he was the latest of these messengers and that he brought new spiritual and social teachings for our time. “A new life is, in this age, stirring within all the peoples of the earth,” Mr Fordham said quoting Baha’u’llah. “The worldwide Baha’i community is working to put Baha’u’llah’s vision of a peaceful and united global society, encompassing the spiritual and material dimensions of life, into practice.” Q. What does the faith mean to you? “Knowing about Bahaullah has clarified what religion is all about in my mind,” Mr Fordham said. “The truth I have discovered independently has given me new faith, not only in the power of religion and prayer, but the knowledge that we are created for a reason. “We are created to know God and worship him. Since he is an unknowable essence I have looked within to find the answer. “I believe we must learn to love all peoples and accept all religions that have withstood the test of time.”

Bahá’u’lláh wrote: “The Purpose of the one true God, exalted be his glory, in revealing himself unto men is to lay bare those gems that lie hidden within the mine of their true and inmost selves.” Another Tweed Baha’i Faith follower Julie said as an individual accepting Baha’u’llah’s Revelation to be a part of a maturing civilisation destined to see a world peace through an encompassing love for all peoples.

“This personal acceptance by me of Baha’u’llah’s message for the day has given capacity, for unlimited spiritual growth and an understanding to questions about the eternal existence of the spirit after this world,” she said. “This has proven the need for me, as a human being to polish my hidden gems that lie within.”

Bahá’u’lláh wrote: “Let each morn be better than its eve and each morrow richer than its yesterday.” Q. Finally, what’s been the global influence of the Baha’i Faith? “Since the inception of the Bahá’í Faith in the nineteenth century, a growing number of people have found in the teachings of Bahá’u’lláh a compelling vision of a better world,” Mr Fordham said. “Many have drawn insights from these teachings - for example, on the oneness of humanity, on the equality of women and men, on the elimination of prejudice, on the harmony of science and religion—and have sought to apply Bahá’í principles to their lives and work. “Others have gone further and have decided to join the Bahá’í community and participate in its efforts to contribute directly to the

realisation of Bahá’u’lláh’s stupendous vision for humanity’s coming of age. “Bahá’ís hail from all walks of life. Young and old, men and women alike, they live alongside others in every land and belong to every nation. “They share a common goal of serving humanity and refining their inner-lives in accordance with the teachings of Bahá’u’lláh. “The community to which they belong is one of learning and action, free from any sense of superiority or claim to exclusive understanding of truth. “It is a community that strives to cultivate hope for the future of humanity, to foster purposeful effort, and to celebrate the endeavours of all those in the world who work to promote unity and alleviate human suffering.” Mr Fordham said the Tweed Shire Baha’i enjoy formal gatherings every 19 days and informal ones on a monthly basis. The next informal devotional will be held on Sunday, October 22. To find out more please phone Warwick on 0411 667 977 for more information. We also conduct a spiritual gathering at Banora Point Community Hall, corner of Woodland and Leisure Drive, Banora Point on the third Sunday of each month at 10am.

last week’s crossword solutions

OFFSHORE: this weekend could be one of your last chances to get a big snap before they move on, close reefs before sun up will be the go and 24, 36’ and 50’s will be the go after sun up. 5 - 7 inch plastics and drifting baits in close and 80g - 300g jigs will work better out wide. Reports of dolphin fish out around the FAD and the 24’s trolled skirts working best. Bass grouper out in 400m of water. A few kings on live baits on close reefs. Tuna in close off of sea way, pin and tweed. ESTUARY: the jacks are really starting to wake up with the warm weather Coomera, Nerang and tweed fishing best at the moment, try artificial’s at dusk and dawn and baits of a night. They are only hitting smaller live baits at the moment. Try 15cm mullet, small biddies, boney bream and herring. Lots of big flathead still around. You might want to stay away from the pin and the broadwater with the flatty classic on. But Tally, Currumbin, tweed, Hastings point and the Brunswick is still fishing well. Still a few Jew around the bay, try the deeper holes with livies. Lots of whiting feeding up this week. Try main channels on the run out and sand bars on the run in. Special mention to the Nerang with some real elbow slappers pulled off the sand over the last two weeks. BEACHES: dart, flathead, bream and odd tailor sitting in most gutters of the gold and tweed coast. Special mention to south beaches of tweed some great fish pulled out of their gutter over the week. BASS: all local river and creeks starting to fish really well, mudgie, upper Nerang, upper Coomera, upper Albert and around Banora point all producing good fish this week. Dam starting to fish well too. Jig spins still fishing better than anything else.

Featured Business

My name is Pauline McLeod and I am a dog trainer in the Murwillumbah area and surrounds. I work for an International Award Winning Certiﬁed Specialist Dog Training Company; Craig A Murray Dog Training who train assistance dogs, detection dogs, protection dogs for licensed Security Ofﬁcers, and also train dogs for the community. As a trainer for Craig A Murray Dog Training I am currently running Puppy Classes, Basic Obedience Classes, Manners Classes, Agility Classes and Trick classes in Murwillumbah. Personally, I have had a love of animals and training them since I can remember. I have been heavily involved with

both dogs and horses all of my life and I have enjoyed every minute of it. I started to really enjoy training dogs speciﬁcally, when I started trick training and agility training. Trick training and Agility have assisted me in creating a fun and healthy relationship between myself and my dogs. I now compete in agility and train dogs for both myself and the community daily through my classes and private consultations. If you would like to come along to any classes or if you would like to know any more information, please do not hesitate to contact me. I look forward to meeting you and your dog!

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.

Man hides up a tree to evade police TWEED POLICE were taken on two wild goose chases on Friday, September 29, with one driver attempting to evade police by climbing up a tree. Police said the first pursuit was at 11.22pm after they detected a stolen vehicle travelling on the M1 at Chinderah. Officers attempted to stop the vehicle, however the driver failed to stop and police pursued. The vehicle turned off the M1 and drove down a dirt road through cane fields before turning onto Tweed Valley Way. The vehicle has then turned into a private road crashing into a set of steel gates. Police said the vehicle didn’t stop there and was seen driving through

a number of dish drains before coming to a stop. “The two occupants ran from the vehicle and a police dog team from Tweed Heads attended and commenced to track the offenders,” police said in a media statement. “A male was located some time later up a tree. He was arrested and conveyed to Tweed Heads Police Station. Inquiries are continuing to locate the second offender.” The second pursuit was at 1.48am when a vehicle was detected travelling south on the M1 in a southerly direction. Police again signaled the vehicle to pull over but the driver allegedly ignored this and continued driving over grass median strips and doing u-turns and driving on the incorrect

side of the motorway to avoid police. “The driver and his passenger then ran from the vehicle after they had left it in the middle of the motorway,” police said. Officers removed the vehicle and commenced to search for the two people, again using the police dog team at the scene and located the pair who had allegedly fled. “The male driver has been charged with police pursuit and failure to stop, driving in a dangerous manner, driving unlicensed, receiving stolen property outside the state and goods in custody,” police said. He was bail refused to appear at Tweed Heads Bail Court at a later date.

DUNGAY PUBLIC School students have raised almost $9,000 for their school after hosting a CUA School Fun Run on Wednesday, June 28. In the lead-up to the event, students pounded the pavement and raised funds online by seeking sponsorship from their local community. CUA School Fun Run organiser, Joshua, said teachers were excited to get behind a fundraising activity that promoted such a healthy interaction with the community and taught kids about setting and achieving financial goals. “Not only could everyone get out of the classroom and exercise, but the students were keen to set and meet their fundraising targets so they could earn prizes like scooters and sporting equipment which of course promote further healthy activity,” he said. “ P a r e n t s e n t h u s i a s t i c a l ly supported the initiative as it steered their kids away from traditional fundraising efforts which often involve selling junk food.” The CUA School Fun Run

program also provides students and families with additional tools and practical advice from the online health hub to encourage ongoing healthy habits at home. The School Fun Run program has been running Australia-wide since 1987, with participating schools raising over $90 million in extra funding over that period. Many schools rely on this additional revenue to enhance facilities and upgrade school equipment and supplies CUA Chief of Corporate Affairs and Community, Jo Kearney, said this was now CUA’s ninth year of supporting the School Fun Run and she was proud that CUA had stepped up its commitment in 2017 as the major sponsor. “The CUA School Fun Runs help kids learn about setting and achieving financial goals and establishing healthy habits that will stay with them throughout their lives,” Ms Kearney said. Schools can find more information on hosting a CUA School Fun Run, or register their interest at www. schoolfundraising.com.au.

Dungay School fun run results Road Safety for motorbikes TRANSPORT NSW’S Local Government Road Safety Program is sponsoring a course to teach motorbike riders what they need to do to help fellow riders who have crashed while they wait for emergency services to arrive. Tweed roads are very popular with motorbike riders but what makes them attractive - steep inclines and declines with lots of bends through scenic hinterland - is also the environment more likely to bring a rider unstuck. “Our road safety program is offering this first aid course at almost half price because it values the fact that motorbike riders love the beauty of the Tweed Shire and wants them to have the skills needed to manage a crash scene, preserve life and promote recovery until emergency services arrive if another rider comes down,” Tweed Shire Council’s Road Safety Officer Alana Brooks said. “Immediate first aid is critical and can have a significant impact on the severity of injuries,” said Ms Brooks. “This program aims to reduce the likelihood of deaths and

injuries from road trauma in local communities.” The course has been written for motorcyclists by motorcyclists. Course components include: roadside crash scene management, emergency helmet removal, moving a casualty in danger, first aid traumatic injury treatment skills, and crash prevention strategies for riders. “It teaches riders the right skills and will give them confidence to provide immediate and critical first aid to a rider who’s come down,” said Ms Brooks. “It will also provide them with the skills to manage a crash site, preventing further potential injuries or crashes before emergency services arrive.” The course will be held on Saturday, October 21 at the Banora Point Community Centre on the corner of Woodlands and Leisure drives, Banora Point, from 10.45am to 3.45pm with an hour’s break for lunch. The cost to riders is $45 (normal cost $85). For more infor mation and t o b o o k v i s i t h t t p : / / w w w. firstaidformotorcyclists.com.au/ or telephone 0427 464 266.

Must see exhibition of Brett Whiteley works at Gallery AN EXCITING new exhibition has recently opened at the Tweed Regional Gallery featuring incredible works by Brett Whiteley titled Brett Whiteley: other places (somewhere else). Brett Whiteley travelled extensively throughout his life, setting down his experiences in charcoal, photographs and paint, creating a visual diary of Paris, New York, Tokyo and other destinations. The exhibition reveals the artist’s intense desire to document his unique vision and experiences, showcasing these paintings, drawings, photographs and sketchbooks. Brett Whiteley: other places (somewhere else) is an Art Gallery of New South Wales and Brett Whiteley Studio touring exhibition, developed in partnership with the Cairns Regional Gallery.

It includes his early works of Paris, which had never been displayed, and his last experiences of the city when he returned to Paris at 50 in 1989. Whiteley immersed himself in these cities, recording his impressions of the urban landscapes and the people within them, with great energy, humour and sensitivity. Brett Whiteley: other places (somewhere else) will be on display at the Tweed Regional Gallery & Margaret Olley Art Centre until Sunday, December 3. There will be a special screening of the documentary WHITELEY at the Regent Cinema, Murwillumbah on Sunday, November 5 at 4pm. Local printmaker David Preston, who shared a friendship and unique collaboration with Brett Whiteley will make an introduction to the film.

Tickets available on the website. Additional screening, Wednesday, November 8, at 7pm. Tickets: $12/$10/$8 available at the Regent Cinema (02) 6672 8265.

Bowls Notes

Tweed Valley Weekly Locals Supporting Locals

with Judy Tuckey

Kingscliff Artie Booth Pairs event extremely well attended LAST WEEK’S Kingscliff Artie Booth Pairs was, as usual, an extremely well attended event that attracted three full greens of contenders. High class bowling from all competitors rendered a great day of bowling in a competition formatted on three games of thirteen ends. With six teams all scoring wins in each round, Kingscliff’s Paul Crompton and Trevor Hills scooped the pool on 3 + 32 to take home first prize. South Tweed’s Rob Creswell and John North were runners-up, closely followed by Terry Lee and Steve Massey (Kingscliff) in third place. Fourth place went to Brendan Hoey and Ray Hickman (South Tweed). Mat Masula and Paul Earl (Pottsville) were placed fifth and Kingscliff’s

Graham Cowie and Stu Miles came in sixth. Well done, everyone. With most major championships around the clubs finalised, minor competitions are still underway. Up at Cudgen Leagues Lorna Arnott and Sheila Thompson put on a good show as they overcame Norma Craven and Liz Fleming in the Club Select Pairs final to claim victory with a comfy margin. Mullumbimby’s Consistency Super Series, now in its third year, has proven to be a very successful event on the club calendar. Generously sponsored by Mullumbimby Hot Bread and Mullumbimby Reliable Removals, this handicap event filled the greens to capacity during the four weeks of competition.

MARLON HARRISON has been on fire lately, and added another trophy to the overflowing Harrison Family Trophy Cabinent, with a win at the Maroubra Rip Curl Gromsearch. He ensured one GromSearch title would be heading interstate, thanks to a commanding presence in the 14 and under boys final. Harrison notched up a 13.67 heat total to claim the win ahead of Mike Clayton-Brown (Corlette, NSW), Jai Glinderman (Lennox Head, NSW) and Zeb

Last bowlers standing to face off in the final, Ben Leeson and last year’s runner-up Mark Hogan, certainly presented a great display of classy bowls. In a tight encounter, Leeson was in front at the completion of 11 ends. Hogan then edged ahead and on collecting a maximum 10 points on the final end, claimed victory and the winner’s monetary reward. Byron Bay Club is gearing up for their ever popular annual Open Two Bowl Triples (men, women or mixed) scheduled for October 20. This two rounds of 15 ends competition – winners play winners and losers play losers – is offering very attractive prize money and is an event not to be missed.

Stokes (Buddina, Qld) who took out second, third and fourth respectively. Marlon’s big sister Piper also did well placing fourth in the 16 and under girls. The Rip Curl GromSearch series started in 1999 as a oneday event at Jan Juc in Victoria. Since then it has developed into the strongest international series for 16 year and under surfers in the world. With parallel Rip Curl GromSearch series in over 10 countries, it has become a crucial stepping-stone in the development of elite junior surfers. When I commentated Bells in the late nineties to early 2000’s it was always a highlight to check out between heats of the main event. The list of previous GromSearch competitors highlights the elite level of competitors that make up the Rip Curl GromSearch series. Guys like Matt Wilkinson, Gabriel Medina, Kolohe Andino, Felipe Toledo, Jordy Smith, and Nat Young, and girls such as Tyler Wright, Stephanie Gilmore, Malia Manuel, Sally Fitzgibbons, Nikki Van Dijk, and Tatiana Weston Webb. All Rip Curl GromSearch events include boys and girls divisions in 16 and under, 14 and under, and 12 and under age groups. Surfers receive points for their results in each

event, which then count towards a National GromSearch ratings system, allowing surfers from around Australia to compare their results with contemporaries. Leaders on the National Ratings will then qualify for the last event of the series, the Rip Curl GromSearch National Final, to be held at Woonoona, NSW on January 15-17, 2017. The closest round to here will be Gromsearch Sunshine Coast on December 11 to 15.

Local clubs look to qualify for National Boardriders Battle this weekend

Cabarita and Kingscliff Boardriders will be off to Coffs Harbour this Saturday to compete in the NSW North regional round of the Nudie Australian Boardriders Battle. The top teams will qualify for the National Championships to be held in Newcastle in February. Both Cabarita and Kingscliff have quality teams, and Caba will be looking to qualify for the National Titles for the third consecutive year. To qualify they will have to overcome some star studded clubs such as Coffs Harbour, Le Ba (Lennox/Ballina) and Byron Bay to name a few. Good luck to the local teams, I’ll get you the wrap up next week. Catch you in the waves

Murwillumbah Basketball returns

Sh ting Hoops

AFTER THE devastation of Cyclone Debbie the Association was left searching for a new location after the court located on Racecourse Road received significant damage from sitting under water for two days. Tweed Valley Adventist College jumped at the chance to help out the association and allow us to continue our competition from their hall. Together with the support from our community we are up and running all leagues with some new and exciting sessions. The womens league is in full swing on Monday nights with five teams competing and Jessica Benard taking on the position of coordinator. Aussie hoops commenced again on Tuesday afternoons from 4-5pm with a great number of students aged 5-10yrs. Mini ball is on from 5-6pm catering for kids aged 8-12yrs. Our students really love their sessions with Aaron. The Mens league is four teams strong and playing on tuesday evenings. The mens competition is open for individual and team nominations for the new season commencing

in term 4. Our new club president Justin Stillman, has also stepped in as the Men’s coordinator. Our youth league has really jumped up a level this past term with a great number of students attending our Wednesday afternoon coaching sessions followed by some exciting games. New players and officials are always welcome. We have spots available in both Women’s and Men’s league or if you can gather a team lets us know. Please contact Jess 0401 865 038 or Justin 0412 402 893. Term four is looking to be full of action. We will be commencing a new term of Aussie Hoops on October 17 and is open for registration now.

Seagulls named in US Rugby League squad TWEED HEADS Seagulls are celebrating after two of their players were included in the United States squad that will compete in the upcoming Rugby League World Cup. Forwards Sam Carson (pictured) and Eddy Pettybourne have been rewarded ENDURANCE ATHLETE Matt Lamont set an early but formidable benchmark when he recorded the quickest times in all three legs at last Saturday’s Tweed Valley Triathletes club race. Lamont recorded an overall time of 49 minutes and 30 seconds for the 500m swim, 14km cycle and 4km run course, in conditions much more favourable than the previous weekend. Warmer water and a gentle breeze for the bike and run assisted competitors for the second and final qualifying race, before the point score begins this Saturday. Many club members continued to make a gentle return to racing and were enjoying the smoother ride along the freshly resealed

section of Queensland Road. While Lamont ensured he will start the season with a challenging mark, Jeanette Annett crossed the finish line first on handicap for the second week in a row. The field was boosted by a number of juniors who have stepped up Senior competition this season and are already proving to be very competitive. They will be looking to improve further when TVT members begin racing for points this Saturday, starting at the Tweed Regional Aquatic Centre Murwillumbah at 6am. New members are always welcome and can find out more by visiting tweedvalleytri. com.au, or by contacting race director Chris Goudkamp on 0408 669174 or cgoudkam@ bigpond.net.au

Sam Carson

for fine seasons in the Intrust Super Cup with selection for rugby league’s showpiece international event, which begins on Friday, October 27, and takes place across Australia, New Zealand and Papua New Guinea. Pettybourne, who also represents Gold Coast Titans in the NRL, previously appeared for the United States in the 2013 World Cup, while this will be Carson’s first appearance for the red, white and blue at the tournament. As part of the United States team, Carson and Pettybourne will take on Fiji, Papua New Guinea and Italy. Another Seagull, centre James Wood, will line up for Vanuatu against Solomon Islands in October, ahead of the Emerging Nations World Cup in Australia next year. “Congratulations to Sam Carson and Eddy Pettybourne for their selection in the USA team to play in the upcoming Rugby League World Cup which starts next month,” a statement from the Seagulls Club said. “Eddy played for the red, white and blues in 2013 but this is Sam’s first encounter at this level after a fine season for the Gullies.”

Consultation

Research shows that incorrect jaw development and crooked teeth are evident in children from as young as the age of 5. The causes of this can be the eﬀects of the poor muscle habits of our lips, cheeks and tongues. Correction of these habits allows our jaws to develop correctly and our teeth to align naturally into the correct position. Traditionally, children need to wait until all their adult teeth have erupted before commencing treatment to straighten

teeth. Myobrace allows treatment to commence from as early as the age of 5. The Myobrace system works to actively change our muscle habits by wearing a removable appliance that is worn for 1-2 hours per day and overnight whilst sleeping, as well as completing a series of activities over the course of treatment.
