YOUR TWEED SHI COUNC RE IL FLOOD PREPA RATION GUIDE

For flood’s sake Prepare yourself for storm season In the Tweed, if 300mm of rain falls within 24 hours, expect significant flooding.

Short bursts of much less rain can bring flash floods, particularly in the Hinterland and low-lying residential areas of Tweed Heads.

Then, in Tweed Heads, Chinderah and the Coastal Villages, the worst flood will come when there is significant rain coupled with an ocean storm surge or king tide.

So, what’s your flood trigger to: • lift your property from any under-storey?

• move your vehicle?

• pick the kids up from school?

• leave?

A survey of 800 central Murwillumbah residents in early 2018 found that very few of them understood their flood risk or would respond quickly to an order to evacuate or evacuate at all.

In March 2017, had it rained for a few more hours, the Murwillumbah CBD and East Murwillumbah flood levees would have been completely overtopped and the areas behind them inundated with up to four metres of water. The Dorothy William Street levee was overtopped and that area was under two to three metres of water.

Watch a video on how a flood unfolds in the Murwillumbah CBD on Council’s website at www.tweed.nsw.gov.au/floodriskmanagement#floodinfrastructure Meanwhile, the March 2017 flood left South Murwillumbah looking like a war zone. And while many riverside residents stayed put feeling they would be safe in their elevated houses based on their past experiences, the floodwaters raged just below their floorboards in the dead of night.

The South Murwillumbah levee was badly damaged in 2017 and has since been repaired. Nevertheless, it will only protect the community from a small flood.

Know your risk

Outlook for the season The Bureau of Meteorology says that after a dry start to spring we could be in for a wetter-thanaverage September to November, thanks to a La Niña effect expected to dominate bringing enhanced chances of rain across much of eastern Australia.

In the Tweed, while rainfall in April and May was well below average, June was right on point with 102.8mm against the average of 105.5mm and July was well above average with 155.8mm against an average of 62mm.

In the seven months to the end of July, we have received almost our entire average annual rainfall at 1407.4mm at Bray Park against the average of 1571mm.

Know your risk

Prepare 1. Know where to go • A high and dry evacuation point close by that you can get to quickly.

2. Know when to go • What natural warning signs should trigger you to act?

• Where have past floodwaters come to on your property? Mark them for quick reference.

3. Know who to call: • friend or family • local SES – 132 500

• A friend or relative outside the area.

• What roads get cut and when? What’s your escape route?

• triple zero (000) in a life-threatening situation.

4. Know your plan All residents need to have a Home Emergency Plan. A template to guide you can be found on the State Emergency Service website at www.seshomeemergencyplan.com.au

If the land slips so can your vehicle New residents are more vulnerable New residents are likely to be more vulnerable in a flood than those who have lived in the Tweed for a long time.

To know your risk, new residents are encouraged to talk with their neighbours about floods of the past and learn what natural flood signs they should watch for.

Warnings from nature most often are the first warnings. Warning signs could include rain for many hours; pooling and ponding water; rushing roadside gutters; dry watercourses running; livestock moving to higher ground; rising creeks and rivers.

Then, there’s the official warnings. The Bureau of Meteorology issues Flood Warnings and Flood Watches, Severe Thunderstorm Warnings and Severe Weather Warnings, while NSW SES adds local information and issues Flood Bulletins, Evacuation Warnings and Evacuation Orders.

The scope of the BoM’s agreed flood-warning service does not include warnings for local overland and/ or rapid onset creek (flash) flooding. This is particularly relevant for the Tweed Shire, given the multitude of creeks that run down its valleys.

Residents should not wait for official flood warnings but should act on the warnings of nature.

Living and Loving the Tweed

5. Get your kit together At all times have: • a battery-powered radio tuned to ABC North Coast FM 94.5 (your emergency channel) • a battery-powered torch • spare batteries • containers for drinking water • candles and waterproof matches • a first aid kit • a waterproof bag for valuables.

If you are likely to be safe at home but cut off for days: • food for several days • medications.

If your home is likely to be flooded and you need to leave: • cash (ATMs go down) • important documents, including insurance policy, contact numbers/photos • medications/scripts • shoes/clothes.

6. Check your insurance The insurance industry in Australia defines flooding as: The covering of normally dry land by water that has escaped or been released from the normal confines of: • any lake, or any river, creek or other natural watercourse, whether or not altered or modified; or • any reservoir, canal, or dam.

All new home and contents insurance policies in Australia include flood cover, however many choose to opt out of flood cover, exclude flood from business policies or choose not to insure at all. Cover for stormwater will not generally extend to include flood events. Policy holders should understand the difference and upgrade their policy if flood cover is required. If an initial quote is too expensive, shop around. For more information, see understandinsurance.com.au/types-of-insurance/flood-insurance

Cancer does not wait, says Health, as tests dip

By Jonathon Howard NSW HEALTH says it wants to remind Tweed residents that “cancer does not wait” and is urging residents to undertake vital cancer screening after a recent dip in testing numbers.

Member for Tweed Geoff Provest recently told The Weekly that health tests, including vital cancer screening, is dropping at alarming rates across the state.

The testing drop comes as the Northern NSW Local Health District (NNSWLHD) recorded more than 71,000 tests for COVID-19 to date, but other health tests are down.

“As at 8pm, Sunday, October 11, it has now been 79 days since the last (COVID-19) case in a resident of the NNSWLHD,” a spokesperson told The Weekly.

“The last case in a resident of Tweed Shire was April 7, which was more than six months ago.”

While COVID-19 testing remains high, it appears many residents are avoiding vital cancer tests.

The Weekly followed up on the cancer testing drop and a NSW Health spokesperson said that while trends in cancer screening and treatment are “not fully analysed yet”, there are indications of a small reduction in cancer diagnoses in the early stages of the COVID-19 pandemic in NSW. “There was an approximate nine per cent reduction in electronic notifications

of new cancer diagnoses to the NSW Cancer Registry in March to June 2020 compared with the months prior,” the NSW Health spokesperson said.

“NSW Health will continue to monitor this data closely.”

NSW Health said it wanted to remind people that “cancer does not wait” and the earlier a cancer is detected, the better the chance of a positive outcome.

“Digital content has been developed to educate people on cancer symptoms during the pandemic,” the spokesperson said.

“It complements ongoing campaigns for all three national screening programs for breast, bowel, and cervical cancer.

“Anyone experiencing any symptoms that concern them should see their GP straight away.”

NSW Health said women who had BreastScreen NSW appointments postponed during the pandemic have been prioritised as part of resumption planning.

“To date, BreastScreen NSW has contacted 95 per cent of these women and successfully rescheduled the majority,” the spokesperson said.

“We continue to prioritise the remaining women. Since 2017, the NSW Government has committed $145 million to enhance access and choice in palliative care across NSW. “This includes funding for 130 new palliative care nurses, new medical specialist positions and allied health professionals.

“There is a focus on supporting access to specialist care for people in regional and rural NSW.”

Dam’s blue-green algae levels downgraded

Blue-green algae has been detected at the Bray Park Weir

“But even if this species were found, our water treatment processes remove blue-green algae from the water when blooms occur so our water would still be perfectly safe to drink.”

Ms Jowett said blue-green algae occurs naturally and can reproduce at a high rate in still or slow-flowing water when it is warm and sunny and there are sufficient levels of nutrients in the water.

Testing during the amber alert issued for Clarrie Hall Dam on Friday, September 25, showed that the algae species did have the gene capable of producing toxin, “but there was no evidence that any toxin had been produced”.

“Knowing that the gene capable of producing toxin had been present, together with the continuing favourable conditions for blooms, Council is taking a precautionary approach and continuing

to restrict recreational activities at the dam,” Ms Jowett said.

“Warning signs at the dam wall and Crams Farm will stay in place until we are confident there is no risk to recreational kayakers or fishers coming into contact with the water.”

Council said it will continue to test water at the dam, in the river and at the Bray Park Weir pool.

Water affected by blue-green algae appears to have a green, paint-like scum on the water, near the edges, or greenish clumps throughout the water.

Anyone who thinks they may have been in contact with blue-green algal water is advised to seek medical advice if symptoms appear.

By Jonathon Howard TWEED’S DRINKING water remains safe from a recent blue-green algae alert at Clarrie Hall Dam that has recently been downgraded from amber to green, or low densities, according to Tweed Shire Council.

However, Council has now also detected blue-green algae at Bray Park Weir, which had been updated to an amber alert level at the time of print.

At these levels, the blue-green algae does not typically pose a threat to recreational activities, stock or domestic use. The blue-green algae is still considered dangerous to humans and Council has posted signage restricting water activities.

Council’s Manager of Water and Wastewater Operations, Brie Jowett, said the Tweed Water Laboratory Centre is renowned for its expertise in blue-green algae.

“It found no evidence of the bluegreen algae species capable of producing toxin in the weir pool, which is where the Tweed’s reticulated water supply is drawn,” Ms Jowett said.

The Wicked Witch says thanks

We hear so much about the bad things happening in the world, so let me tell you about some of the nice things that young people do.

I live in Viking Street on the hill at Kingscliff. Next to the side of our property is a walkway where people come from the back streets up to Viking Street to go to school or catch the bus to work.

I have got to know the young people, and each morning and afternoon I look out for them. As they come by they look for me and call out ‘good morning Fay. How are you? Are you okay?’

It has become a very special thing and it is not only one or two but many more of the children that look out for us. One young lad by the name of Finlay makes sure we are okay and checks to see if we need anything.

My husband is now included in the greetings and as he sits out the front of the house each morning, he gets a wave from the children.

Now it is coming up Halloween so I will give back to the children for their friendship. When I turned 80, two of my friends gave me a broomstick which has a seat, handlebars and a horn and each Halloween I dress up as the Wicked Witch. This has become an event in Viking Street as my neighbour two doors up has made signs which he puts out in the street to say: ‘The Wicked Witch lives at 25 Viking Street.’

I have lollies of all kinds in baskets at the front door and the children are allowed two each. Not only do the children come, but the parents also, so I go to the front door in my special witch outfit and riding my broomstick I tell them I am the Wicked Witch and I will get them if they don’t behave. I have been doing this for the past few years and this year will be different as we have the pandemic, but I won’t give it away

Accidents at Duranbah Road and Clothiers Creek Road

I note the call for more centre line markings and a reduction in speed from 80km/h to 70km/h on Durnabah Road. I have to point out that on my regularly driven roads of Duranbah Road, Cudgen Road, Eviron Road and Clothiers Creek Road, the issue is not line markings.

Every day vehicles go around blind, marked – with double lines – corners over the wrong side of the road, often by a few centimeters and occasionally by a metre or more.

Obviously people can’t stay on their side of the road with unbroken lines so adding more is unlikely to make a difference. Can people please just stay on their side of the road.

It’s not rocket science.

Stupidity of border closures

The only COVID-19 virus in Queensland is the current premier and her sidekick Dr Young (Qld Chief Health Officer) who between them created the ‘no-go’ Qld/NSW border.

Then the ‘border bubble’ and now the November 1 – after the Queensland state election – border for southern ‘cockroaches’. All this with seemingly a ‘flick of Annastacia Palaszczuk’s magic political wand’.

Talk about making Clive Palmer look good.

Whatever the political outcome on October 31, the Queensland economy is dead and will remain dead for a very long time because there is going to be no explosion of southern or international tourists into Queensland. When you lock people out and down for several months, their mentality changes.

It’s all very similar to what China has been doing to the Australian university model. Budgets slashed by one third with no more high paying Chinese students flying in.

Sure, they can have a go at trying to replace them at least in part with other overseas students, but such students from India etc are not going to pay the same high prices. Sure, more Queenslanders will travel in Queensland, but nowhere near the same numbers for the same high prices as the cashed-up southerners.

Federal Labor under Anthony Albanese didn’t have much of a chance in 2022, but now courtesy of Queensland Labor and the crumbling ‘down the white rabbit hole’ Queensland economy, that chance is zero.

Talk about a comedy of selfinterest and utter stupidity.

Terry Sharples, Tweed Heads

We’ll need to be much more clever

I read Warren James’ letter ‘We’ll need to be clever’ with astonishment at its lack of factual evidence and truth, with respect to SA and the catastrophic outages they endured.

You either did not see or chose not to recognise that you, in fact, could have nuclear power and the SA people were not going to get power while the masses of towers and lines were on the ground over hundreds of kilometres.

The issue of coal or gas is something different, with industry groups as well as overseas customers of our coal industry dropping like flies and looking at alternative power sources.

Our country does need to be clever and be proactive, not reactive. We have a multitude of green, clean energy sources in this country and the industry is aware of that and wants government to help facilitate the change, not tie our future to ageing and redundant power supplies.

If solar and wind are the demands you infer, then in short, we are doomed, as are the economies of LA, Germany and the UK to name a few.

We are the lucky country, as we have been for a very long time, but if we saddle ourselves up to dinosaurs and their vested interests, we will wake up one sunny day a poor cousin to our cousins in the Asia Pacific region.

When the dreamers and schemers of today come to be the innovators and builders of tomorrow, a simple look at some of the innovation driving research in our universities would enlighten you I am sure.

Why not publicise beach access

The recent increase in shark sightings made me want to be more aware of where I am when fishing.

Most fishermen have assisted people with numerous issues over the years, particularly on our more isolated beaches. It makes it really hard when you find out that the Tweed Shire Council has a map showing beach access points and the number of each, but don’t publish it on their web page or anywhere else easily found. Reason given was that they don’t want the information to be abused?

If you Google beach access signage other councils give this information no problem. I guess it’s just secret sign business. In fact, it would be great if it was included on Google maps, as we all use this technology.

Ludicrousy of saving water

Regarding Water Night on October 22; the only people who need to improve their water mindfulness is the councillors and staff of Tweed Shire Council. We are not a third world shire but a very green shire with abundant rainfall.

The problem is the bulk of our rain falls during summer cyclones

and floods our towns and villages.

If Council was mindful of this fact and saved water when it rained, we would not need to save water when it’s not raining.

A big thank you all the way from Scotland

We’re now home in Dunoon, Scotland, after a visit to our lovely lad in March found us – very happily – stranded for five months in the Uki/Murwillumbah area.

This is a little note to say a big thank you to all the local people who were so kind, helpful, generous, welcoming and friendly towards us during the time we stayed waiting for COVID-grounded flights to start again.

We’ll always remember the people of the Tweed Valley for their kindness to us. You live in a beautiful place with beautiful people.

Thank you. Special thanks to Tom, the team at Mavis’s Kitchen, Phil Taylor, Joe at the laundrette, the coffee club natterers and the folk at the Rainforest Retreat.

Council launches flood preparation campaign

WANT SOLAR? INSTALLED IN 30 DAYS

GUARANTEED! Looking towards the Murwillumbah bridge during the 2017 flood.

Inset is the aftermath of the flood in South Murwillumbah.

“It’s designed to be lifted from the paper and kept as a handy reference for all residents.”

Deputy Mayor Reece Byrnes said being prepared for a future rain or weather event is “essential for all us in the community”.

“The memories and trauma of 2017 will stay with us all forever, however, it is important we remain vigilant and prepared for any future rain or weather event,” he said.

“As a community it is vital to understand what to do when flood watches and warnings are in place and staying safe.

“If residents wish to know more about their flood risk then Council is happy to advise them and help them be prepared.”

The Council team, along with all Tweed Shire Councillors, are urging residents to read and hold on to the ‘For Flood Sake’ liftout to ensure they are best prepared for future flood events.

the first one may arrive earlier than normal,” Mr Browning said.

“Now, more than ever, it’s vital to heed the Bureau’s warning to know your weather, know your risk.”

Council’s Manager of Roads and Stormwater Danny Rose reinforced Mayor Cherry’s comments and said the need to be flood prepared was vital.

“Council’s ‘For Flood’s Sake’ campaign is not meant to scare residents, but encourage them to actively prepare for storm season, which could result in floods,” Mr Rose said.

“The reality is, it has flooded in the Tweed before and will flood again.

“Whether that will be this summer, we don’t know. But the Bureau of Meteorology has said we are in for wetter-than-average months ahead.

“The ‘For Flood’s Sake’ liftout is a practical guide on how to prepare for storm season and the history of flooding in the Tweed.

84797

By Jonathon Howard TWEED SHIRE Council has launched a major campaign to remind residents as summer storm season approaches that the Tweed has flooded before and “it will happen again”.

Mayor Chris Cherry said the message and campaign was not designed to alarm residents, but instead was hoped to ensure residents are prepared for the worst.

“The community need to think about how they can be better prepared for our next flood, who will you shelter with?

What do you take? When will you leave?

And who do you need to let know you are safe?” she said.

“Floods are not our only concern though; heat waves and storm events have the potential to impact on our community and our businesses.”

Council’s flood campaign comes as the Bureau of Meteorology (BOM) released its Severe Weather Outlook for October to April, showing an increased risk of flooding for eastern Australia and tropical cyclones in the north, with roughly average potential for heatwaves and severe thunderstorms.

“The current La Niña is likely to bring more rain to eastern and northern Australia, with some drought-affected areas already seeing rainfall deficiencies ease and water storage levels increase,” BOM said.

While recent decades have seen a decline in the number of tropical cyclones in our region, BOM climatologist Greg Browning says this summer is likely to buck that trend.

“On average, Australia sees nine to eleven tropical cyclones each year, with four crossing the coast. With La Niña this year we are expecting to see slightly more tropical cyclones than average, and

Concerns gold and silver mining could become the new coal seam gas the landholders, but if that’s not agreed upon then, there is limited ways to defend against it, and if the agreements are not approved by both parties, it would progress to the Land and Environment Court,” she said.

Cr Milne said she had similar fears to coal seam gas mining and reflected on the challenges faced during the Lock the Gate campaign across the Northern Rivers.

“The fight against CSG was e x t r e m e ly d i ff i c u l t fo r t h e community. It was a huge battle to stop that and in the end the communities were victorious,” Cr Milne said.

“In the end it was the people who won as the state government purchased the exploration licences.

“We need to recognise that sort of mining is highly inappropriate.

Mining of any type is very damaging.

Think about it: is it appropriate to mine in the middle of Sydney? No. Is it appropriate to mine Australia’s most internationally significant environments? No. “I think residents need to be on high alert and write to the minister to express their concerns about it.

They should be worried about this.

At any stage their property could be highlighted for mining.”

The search for gold is being driven by a soaring gold price, which was well over $2,600 per ounce at the time of print.

Cr Ron Cooper said he was concerned that the proposed licencing map could follow along several waterways.

“People would be selling up big on their gold at the moment,” he said.

Above is the mapped area covering the licence application to explore for gold and silver including previous mine sites

“But I believe there will be total pushback against mining across the Tweed Shire from residents to access their properties at no real benefit to the landholder.”

Cr Cooper said he was going to vote in favour of objecting to the proposal and said there was “no inherent benefit in it for the Tweed Shire.”

“There’s simply no return for residents, I don’t think it’s something I can support, I’m not likely to get behind localised mining,” he said.

Member for Lismore Janelle Saffin said there was always concerns around gold mining because of the use of chemicals such as arsenic.

Ms Saffin said despite the gold price being so high, she remained surprised someone would explore the Tweed Shire for gold.

“My job as member is to look at everything on its merit, and I was surprised, I can’t see anyone else wanting it, apart from the company.

Free solar - savings up to $600 on electricity bills The NSW Government is trialling a new way to assist people on low incomes with their power bills by installing free solar systems for up to 3,000 eligible households in place of their Low Income Household Rebate. This program aims to improve energy affordability by helping households unlock long terms savings on their electricity bills. While this means you will no longer receive the $285 annual rebate on your electricity bill, you could receive up to $600 in savings per year from your new solar system!

The program is only available to a limited number of households that live in the region and meet the eligibility criteria. When participating in this program households will receive a free, fully installed 3kW solar system in place of their Low Income Household Rebate.

SAE Group are the only approved provider, designing and installing solar systems to eligible homes across Northern NSW. To be eligible you must: - Currently be receiving the Low Income Household Rebate - Agree not to receive the rebate for ten years - Own your own home - Not already have a solar PV system - Live in the North Coast of NSW - Hold a valid Pensioner Concession Card or a Department of Veteran Affairs Gold Card

“I can’t see any benefit to the local people, what would it be, are they going to shower us in gold?

“All I can associate is the environmental risk and particularly with our water.

“I’ve printed it and I’m taking a close look at it, but now you’re asking me, that’s my response.”

Deputy Mayor Reece Byrnes said he stands with the community “in their concerns over potential mining in our shire.”

“The approval body on any mining or exploration venture of this nature is the NSW state Berejiklian LiberalNational Government,” he said.

“The Berejiklian Liberal-National Government have a disastrous record on protecting our environment.

Whether it’s koalas or CSG mining, this government can’t be trusted.

“It is up to Geoff Provest (MP) and his Liberal-National Government to make sure this mining does not go ahead.”

Councillor James Owen also responded to several questions from The Weekly in regards to rare mineral exploration and mining across the Tweed.

Cr Owen said he was concerned about the rights of landholders and said believes the shire should not be welcoming of this type of activity.

Cr Owen has also urged residents to put their concerns in writing.

“They should write to the State Member for Tweed and State Member for Lismore to express their concerns,” he said.

YOUR THOUGHTS: Do you believe gold and silver mining could become an issue for the Tweed Shire?

Or have you mined for gold in the Tweed before? The Weekly would love to hear your thoughts and letters to editor@theweekly.net.au

Are you eligible for free solar?

If you are not the registered homeowner, but your spouse is, you may be considered eligible collectively as a household.

A 3kW system is designed to generate an average of 12.6kwh per day, which will deliver electricity savings depending on each households energy consumption. Managing Director of SAE Group Glen A shton comments “We know electricity bills continue to place a lot of pressure on households, and we are pleased to be working with the NSW Government to help ease the pressure on low income households.”

SAE Group are a locally owned and operated organisation with more than ten years’ experience in the solar industry. SAE Group are a Clean Energy Council Approved Retailer, and hold accreditations ISO 9001, AS/ NZS4801 for safety and quality systems.

Safety is paramount to us, and it our goal to ensure we provide quality solar systems to eligible households that will deliver ongoing savings for many years to come.

By Jonathon Howard FIRST IT was coal seam gas that shook the Northern Rivers, then it was water extraction, later coined “water mining”, now Tweed Shire Councillor Katie Milne fears gold and silver exploration could create a fresh round of “lock the gate”.

Cr Milne’s concerns stemmed from a recent gold and silver mining application that covers 118 square kilometres of the Tweed Shire, as reported in The Weekly (October 8).

Cr Milne is so concerned about the application, she has called an extraordinary meeting on Thursday, October 15.

Cr Milne will raise a motion calling on councillors to write a letter of objection to the NSW Environment Minister and local state members and she’s urging residents to do the same.

Gold Belt company owner Mark Rampe recently submitted a large licence application that’s open for public comment and which includes a former gold site north of Clarrie Hall Dam. Mr Rampe said he hopes to use some of the latest technology to revisit key gold and silver sites from the past and is keen to work with local landholders.

When asked about the concerns raised by councillors, Mr Rampe declined to commen and instead said he remains “happy to talk to any councillors directly”.

Cr Milne said mining is known to have a “significant impact on the environment” and she believes landholders have “very little right to object”.

“I acknowledge that miners do require an agreement with

Rous County Council Weed Biosecurity Officers required full biohazard protection against the effects of Parthenium weed. Source: Rous County Council 2020. Inset: Parthenium weed (Parthenium hysterophorus) produces small innocuous flowers that can have negative health effects on humans and livestock. Source: Phil Blackmore

First ever outbreak of invasive weed in the Northern Rivers An outbreak of the highly invasive Parthenium weed has been detected on a rural property in the Tweed by Rous County Council Weed Biosecurity Officers.

It is the first time the weed has been found in the Northern Rivers region and was discovered when officers were carrying out targeted work on properties identified as high risk of Parthenium weed incursion.

The weed (Parthenium hysterophorus), a native of the Caribbean region, is highly invasive to the natural and agricultural environment and is known to cause severe health reactions in humans and livestock.

Once the property owner was made aware of the Parthenium, it was reported immediately and biosecurity officers were able to identify the weed and began manually removing all flowering plants and treating

any seedlings.

As Parthenium plants, flowers, seeds and pollen are known to cause respiratory and other health issues, it is advised that the public exercise extreme caution if they suspect it is growing on their property.

Report immediately, move all livestock away from that area and do not attempt to remove any plants yourself.

Parthenium is endemic in parts of central Queensland and is slowly spreading south.

If found, immediately contact Rous County Council (RCC) on 02 6623 3800 or email council@rous.nsw.gov.au Rous County Council is Tweed Shire’s weed control authority.

You can also report online at www.rous.nsw.gov.au/reportaweed or call the DPI Weed Helpline on 1800 680 244.

Free water booklets for all primary school libraries Tweed Shire Council is giving away four booklets to every primary school library in the Tweed this week to help teach the younger generation how water works and how precious it is.

The move is part of Council’s sponsorship of the first ever national Water Night to be held across Australia on Thursday 22 October 2020.

All Tweed residents are urged to register for Water Night to learn just how addicted they are to using their taps.

The water awareness initiative is being conducted by not-for-profit water efficiency experts Smart Approved WaterMark.

The challenge is to stop reaching for the tap and instead use just one 10-litre bucket of water for all household needs between 5pm and 5am (with the exception of drinking water, hand washing for COVID-care, religious purposes and flush if you must).

In the Tweed, our recent experience on Level 2 water restrictions from November 2019 to February this year showed that the average Tweed resident typically uses 40 to 60 litres more than Council’s target of 160 litres per person per day.

Smart Approved WaterMark’s research shows that 55 per cent of people say they are addicted to their taps and 69 per cent would ‘freak out’ if their taps stopped working.

To encourage Tweed residents to sign on for Water Night, Council has sponsored radio ads by ABC’s Gardening Australia personalities Costa Georgiardis, Sophie Thomson and Jane Edmanson, who have all joined the challenge.

To register and download all the tips and aids to help switch off your water-using autopilot, go to www.waternight.com.au

Paying her rates in full and on time paid off for Tanja Pommersheim, who won Tweed Shire Council’s $3000 Rates Incentive Scheme for 2020.

Tanja is lucky prize winner Tanja Pommersheim is the winner of Tweed Shire Council’s $3000 Rates Incentive Scheme for 2020.

Entry to the competition was automatic for those who paid their rates in full by 31 August 2020.

Receiving rates income early means Council can invest the funds and provide services from the interest earned.

Michael and Francine Potts were the lucky winners of Council’s first quarter 2020 eNotice competition. By choosing to ‘Go Paperless’ and receive their notices electronically before 31 August, Michael and Francine were automatically entered into the first quarter draw and won $1000.

By receiving your rates and water notices electronically, Council cuts back on paper notices and postal delivery charges, an environmental and monetary saving for ratepayers.

To be automatically entered into the $1000 second quarter draw, visit www.tweed.nsw.gov.au/gopaperless and register to receive your rates and water notices electronically by 30 November 2020.

Council locks in wind and solar energy agreement

Council meetings continue to be livestreamed

Tweed Shire Council has started a 10-year Power Purchase Agreement with retailer Flow Power to supply electricity to Council’s largest sites.

The agreement includes buying more than half of Council’s electricity from NSW wind and solar farms.

The Power Purchase Agreement sources energy from Sapphire Wind Farm, near Glenn Innes, and the new Bomen Solar Farm, near Wagga Wagga.

Council recently adopted a new Climate Change Policy which sets a goal for the organisation to achieve net zero carbon emissions by 2030.

To achieve this goal, a Renewable Energy Action Plan has been developed. Under this plan, Council has completed a broad range of energy efficiency works and has installed more than 800kW of solar photovoltaic (PV) systems across Council facilities.

Council plans to install a further 750kW of solar PV at more sites this financial year.

These local projects, combined with Council’s intention to progressively increase its supply of renewable energy, will enable Council to achieve its interim targets of a 25 per cent reduction

Council has resolved to adopt a ‘hybrid’ model for Council meetings, starting from 22 October 2020.

Since April 2020, Council meetings have been held virtually and livestreamed, due to COVID-19 restrictions and concerns.

Under the hybrid model, Councillors have the option of attending the meeting in person or remotely.

The physical aspects of Council and Planning Committee meetings will be held in the Harvard Room at the Tweed Heads Administration Office. Members of the public will continue to be excluded from attending meetings in person because of COVID-19 restrictions.

However, the meetings will continue to be livestreamed.

Meetings will now begin at 5.30pm, following the Public Forum which will commence at 4.30pm for the remainder of the Council term (until elections are held on 4 September 2021).

In the case of a Public Forum, where a member of the public is unable to attend via audio-visual means, the option will be given for the individual to attend in person for the Public Forum only.

To watch the livestream of the meeting or a recording the next day, visit www.tweed.nsw.gov.au/councilmeetings

of electricity-related carbon emissions by 2022 and a 50 per cent reduction by 2025.

Under Council’s Renewable Energy Action Plan, Council has completed a range of energy efficiency works, including this solar installation at Bray Park Water Treatment Plant.

Council’s ePayment and Property Services portal launched Flowers stolen from Murwillumbah cemetery Thieves are stealing flowers and pot plants from Murwillumbah Lawn Cemetery.

Cemeteries Business Manager Helen Carter has called on those responsible to stop as the thefts are “clearly wrong and disrespectful to grieving families”.

“We will be installing cameras to help deter this unacceptable behaviour,” Ms Carter said.

Anyone witnessing the theft of plants or flowers from the cemetery, should report it to Council by calling 02 6670 2400 or email tsc@tweed.nsw.gov.au

Young Tweed poets get mentoring support Giving young poets confidence in themselves and the courage to express their thoughts and views in front of an audience is one of the rewards of mentoring for Anna Avocado.

Anna, the 2019 Queensland Slam Poetry champion, is one of several mentors working with entrants in this year’s Youth Poetry Slam, hosted

by Poets Out Loud and supported by Tweed Shire Council.

The slam is open to young poets in the Northern Rivers aged 12 to 24 and this year has attracted 27 entrants from the Tweed as well as entrants from Byron and Lismore local government areas.

Council has directed NSW Youth Week funds to support the event.

As a mentor, Anna has been working with poets from Pacific Coast Christian College, Kingscliff High School and Sathya Sai College, providing guidance and encouragement in preparation for an online showcase on 1 November.

The finale this year will be held online instead of in front a live audience, due to COVID-19 restrictions.

The Youth Poetry Slam is open to individuals or teams, with video entries shown at the online event on Sunday 1 November from 3pm to 5pm. The winner will receive $400, a trophy, their work published and a paid performance opportunity.

Poets Out Loud, directed by Sarah Temporal, is a platform for spoken word events, workshops and projects, based in the Northern Rivers.

Register for your free ticket for the online event at poetsoutloud.org

Development application determinations

Expression of interest – clean fill Council is calling for expressions of interest from landowners willing to accept clean fill from its construction projects.

Council would deliver the fill free of charge to the property if the trip is shorter than that to a Council disposal facility. If the trip is longer, the property owner would be charged a gap fee based on mileage.

Properties suited to accepting fill must be able to be accessed by a tandem truck. In wet weather, fill can only be delivered to properties with all-weather access.

If Council accepts a property as suitable, it will add the property to a database and contact the applicant when clean fill becomes available from a nearby worksite.

Living and Loving the Tweed

A beautiful way to remember The Tweed Valley Cemetery at Eviron offers a range of services and arrangements in a beautiful and peaceful location.

With a wide range of garden and lawn sites suitable for family or individual memorials, Tweed Valley Cemetery can provide for burials, cremations and ash interments in a caring and respectful manner.

The cemetery also offers a naturally beautiful and unique outdoor option to celebrate the life of a loved one, overlooking the duck pond and picturesque gardens.

Services and wakes can be held onsite in the historic non-denominational chapel.

Beautiful options are also available for burials and interment at the Tweed Heads Lawn Cemetery and General Cemetery and the Murwillumbah Lawn and General Cemetery.

Did you know?

There is much to consider when it comes to funerals. Early planning can help ease the strain and ensure your family understands your wishes. Here are some of the things you’ll need to think about: • For a burial, you’ll need a plot and a coffin (the coffin can be made from a number of different materials – cardboard is fine) • For a cremation, you’ll also need a coffin (again cardboard is also fine) • The lowest cost farewell is a direct delivery cremation (no service, no attendance) • There’s nothing stopping you having a ‘live wake’ – a party to celebrate your life while you’re still here to enjoy it – or having your friends and family celebrate your life in whatever way is meaningful to them • You may wish to get a funeral director or celebrant to help with arranging the funeral • Think about an environmentally friendly coffin or ashes container • Optional extras include a church or chapel ceremony, catering, service booklets, flowers, newspaper notice, etc.

• You can also bring your loved one home for up to five days, without embalming in most cases. The body is kept on a refrigeration plate.

Ask a funeral director or call us on 02 6670 2400 or visit www.tweed.nsw.gov.au/cemeteries

Muscle@Murwillumbah could receive boost

M@M is being planned as a carbon neutral event and will have sustainable local carbon offset targets and the inclusion of electric and hybrid vehicle categories, according to Track Action director Dion Andrews.

“We have approached Council for sponsorship under the attraction sponsorship funding of which there is a substantial sum left unallocated in this year’s sponsorship round,” he said.

“Council have advised us that we are required to submit a development application due to the zoning of the industrial estate.

“We are determined to be a free spectator event and be carbon neutral, and to that end we are petitioning Council for sponsorship to cover the costs of our carbon offset program and park and ride plan to have the event as close to free spectating as possible.”

Racers and Track Action owner and racing identity John Tetley has been a key figure in the event’s design.

“M@M was devised to accentuate and dovetail other motor events existing and planned for the region,” he said.

“Racers brings a wealth of experience to the event in the design, accreditation and day-today management of auto events.”

Track Action director Allan Singleton said he was looking forward to the event.

“There is a huge car culture in our region, from collectors and restorers to grassroots racers and V8 supercar drivers,” he said.

“The buzz about this event has been growing since we first announced it and there is almost a sense of impatience among the community to see the event come to fruition.”

By Jonathon Howard THE-ALL NEW time trial event Muscle@Murwillumbah (M@M) is set to be given a boost this month with Tweed Shire Councillor Pryce Allsop submitting a notice of motion to back the event during an upcoming Tweed Shire Council meeting.

Local event specialists Track Action NSW have proposed the weekend time trial take place at the Industry Central industrial estate in Murwillumbah during early 2021.

“An event of this calibre is a great asset for our shire,” Cr Allsop said.

“In this time of such economic uncertainty, these are the type of events we need to get all of our local businesses on track.”

Cr Allsop’s motion includes a call for $10,000 in funding and that Council agrees to enter into a one-year event sponsorship agreement with COVID-19 restrictions and approvals in place.

Track Action director and Tweed tourism expert Michael Simmons said he is positive about the event, which will be locally inclusive.

“From the entrants, to the spectators, food stalls and workforce, we hope to see as many local businesses as possible included in the running of the event,” he said.

“We have planned the event and been out to the industrial estate several times to design the track layout.

“We have chosen the location based on advice from Council that the industrial estate was a ideal locale for this style of event.”

Rock-throwing youths smash bus windows One new cop for Tweed

By Jo Kennett A PASSENGER on a Surfside bus was lucky not to receive serious injuries when youths threw rocks at a bus at Hastings Point on Wednesday, October 7, smashing two windows and just missing one passenger Police are investigating the incident, which happened around 9pm on Tweed Coast Road, opposite the Shell Service Station.

The bus driver posted on social media warning Tweed Coast residents about the incident.

He said the culprit was a young male wearing a black cap and a tan top. The driver had picked up a group of teenagers at the previous stop at Hastings Point General Store, who had been drinking and may have been involved, as they got off the bus just before the incident.

He said he saw the youth throw the rock with such force that “the impact really stunned my passenger who was sitting one seat behind.”

“There could have been a mother and children (being school holidays) there,” he posted.

“I don’t know how to get the message out to these kids, who one day may seriously injure their family friends or someone else.”

The driver suggested that a permanent police presence was needed on the coast.

“Our population will increase, not decrease,” he said.

“I fear for the safety of all in this area if these matters are placed at the bottom of the barrel.”

By Jo Kennett THE TWEED-BYRON Police District has received one new recruit in the latest round of allocations.

Of 192 graduates, 139 were deployed around Sydney, five went to the Richmond Police District and one to the TweedByron Police District.

Tweed-Byron Police District Chief Inspector Mick Dempsey said the Richmond Police District, which includes Lismore, Ballina and Byron Bay, Evans Head and Casino, was much larger than the Tweed-Byron Police District.

“We were supposed to get two, but one ended up not coming,” Ch Insp Dempsey told The Weekly.

“Richmond is a much bigger command and probably had more vacancies as well.

“We probably didn’t have as many vacancies and we have less authorised strength so aren’t allocated as many.”

The 603 bus where it was hit by rocks at Hastings Point

the incident “very seriously” and the police had been contacted at the time.

“Sadly, people in the community who choose to throw objects at road users have no concern for the very real consequences of their actions,” Mr Campbell said.

“Everyone has the right to feel safe and confident catching a bus and we are fortunate that none of our passengers or drivers have been injured by these reckless incidents.

“We enjoy a strong relationship with local police and thank them for their responsiveness when an incident like this occurs.”

It’s the latest in a spate of rock throwing incidents that have Tweed Coast residents concerned.

Rocks have been thrown at cars and windows smashed in recent weeks in Casuarina and at the Cudgen lights on Tweed Coast Road.

Tweed-Byron Police District Chief Inspector Mick Dempsey said police efforts were “ongoing to review crimes and locations, and target staff appropriately to those locations”.

“Anyone with any information on this incident or other incidents is encouraged to contact Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000 as soon as it happens,” Ch Insp Dempsey told The Weekly.

“Youth Command is also working on the issue (of youth crime on the Tweed Coast).”

No evidence of a crime after woman found in unit

By Jo Kennett A WOMAN is fighting for her life after being found with critical head injuries at a home in Pottsville on Saturday, October 10, but police now say there is no evidence a crime has taken place.

Officers from Tweed-Byron Police District were called to a unit on Elfran Avenue at around 6pm, after a 44-yearold woman was found with head injuries by a family member.

She was treated at the scene before being taken to The Tweed Hospital She was later transferred to the Gold Coast University Hospital in a critical condition where she underwent surgery.

Police established a crime scene with a forensics team on site and an investigation began into the circumstances surrounding the incident to determine how and where the woman sustained her injuries.

However, on Monday, October 12,Tweed-Byron Po l i c e D i s t r i c t C h i e f Inspector Mick Dempsey said there was no evidence of a crime taking place and the woman’s injuries might have been the result of an accident.

“It could be innocent,” Ch Insp Dempsey told The Weekly.

“Enquiries are continuing.

“The woman’s condition hasn’t changed, she is still in a coma.”

Police are appealing for anyone who may have seen any suspicious activity in the nearby area in the hours leading up the discovery of the injured woman to contact Tweed Heads detectives or Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000 or https://nsw. crimestoppers.com.au.

Information is treated in strict confidence.

Police said the teenager zipped up his pants and verbally confronted the man using the filming device.

The teenager returned to his friends who advised staff of the incident and police were called.

“Police attended and have obtained CCTV footage to identify the male,” police said.

Police tracked down a 27-year-old male as being allegedly responsible for the incident.

Police said the man’s phone had footage of similar incidents that occurred in the Lismore area.

“He denied filming at the BP Chinderah,” police said.

The man was charged with two offences of filming a person in a private act and will front Lismore Local Court on November 2.

The Australian Government is extending the temporary JobKeeper Payment to the end of March 2021. From 28 September, businesses must meet the turnover test and submit their declarations by the 14th of each month.

There will be two new payment rates – one for those who work more than 20 hours per week in the relevant period, and another for those who work less. The employee eligibility date has also changed to 1 July, meaning some businesses could claim for more staff.

It’s part of our plan to keep business in business, and Australians in jobs.

By Jonathon Howard AN ALLEGED peeping Tom has been tracked down and charged by Tweed Police after he was caught filming a 17-year-old boy inside a Chinderah service station toilet on Thursday, October 8.

Tweed Police said it was 10.03pm when the victim entered the bathroom and noticed one cubicle with a closed door, although no one else was inside.

“The victim began to use the urinal when he heard noises coming from the cubicle,” police said.

“The victim has turned around and saw a mobile phone sticking out from under the closed cubicle door aimed directly at him.

“When the victim turned around, the phone was retracted from under the door back into the cubicle very quickly.”

Iconic Cabarita butcher calls time

By Jo Kennett AFTER 36 years serving his community, Cabarita Meats’ Greg Harvey has laid down his tools for a well-earned break.

Greg closed his shop at the end of September, but was at the shop over the following week packing up.

“People were coming in giving me bottles of wine, and cartons of beer, and cards with beautiful words in them,” he said.

“It was very special to me and the words they said really meant a lot. I didn’t realise I will be sadly missed.”

Greg first opened his shop on June 24, 1984, and thinks he is probably Cabarita’s longest employee and employer.

“I’ve employed a lot of people over the years,” he said.

“We’ve probably had 30 or 40 wash up boys and I’ve seen them grow up and then walk in the shop with their kids.”

Greg’s years of long working hours have left him “happy to just chill out at home” for the moment.

“I’d leave home at about 3.30am or 4am and get home about 7pm or 7.30pm,” he said.

“I didn’t see my family much so I missed a lot of my kids growing up, which you do in small business, but they have been well fed, that’s for sure.

“My wife is looking forward to us having a normal life.

“We’d love to go travelling, but everyone in my family is still busy, so that might have to wait.

“There are a couple of places that want me to work for them, but I’m just going to have a rest first.

Despite his extraordinary legacy feeding Bogangar and beyond, Greg said it felt like the right time to move on.

“I think I’ve made the right move; I think I’ve done my time here,” he said.

“I tried to sell it to a butcher for a couple of years, but there aren’t butchers around like there used to be.

“Nobody wants to do the hours and everyone just shops at the supermarket.

“All these little shops are dying out unfortunately.”

The shop is set to take on a new lease of life as a tapas bar.

“They’re local boys taking over the shop; they have grown up here,” Greg said.

“They are going to have a beautiful little tapas bar and restaurant, and everyone will know them, so that will be great for the community.

“I really appreciate everyone coming in over the years. Take care everyone.”

Tweed District Rescue Squad had to cut the woman from this car at Tanglewood, west of Cabarita

Horror crash on Clothiers leaves woman critical

By Jo Kennett A WOMAN is fighting for her life after crashing into a tree at Tanglewood on Thursday, October 8.

The 33-year-old was the sole occupant of a silver Ford Falcon which left Clothiers Creek Road just west of Bogangar, crashing into a tree just after 1pm.

Emergency services rushed to the scene including the Westpac Rescue Helicopter which landed on nearby Watty Bishop Road.

NSW Ambulance paramedics and the Westpac Rescue Helicopter critical care medical team treated the woman, who was trapped in the wreckage for some time, before it was considered safe to attempt to extricate her.

Tweed District Rescue Squad used the jaws of life to remove the vehicle’s doors and create a space to free the woman, which took less than ten minutes.

Due to the severity of the woman’s injuries, she was placed into an induced coma before

being flown to the Gold Coast University Hospital in a critical condition.

The accident happened near a bend in a koala zone with a 70km per hour speed limit.

Tweed Byron Police District Chief Inspector Mick Dempsey said as of Monday, October 12, there was no change to the woman’s condition and she remained in a coma in the Gold Coast University Hospital.

Ch Insp Dempsey said he didn’t think the road was a factor in the accident.

“Every country road has the potential to be dangerous,” he told The Weekly.

“Clothiers Creek Road is not on the radar as being any more dangerous than others.”

Officers from Tweed Byron Police District are investigating the circumstances surrounding the crash.

Anyone who may have seen a silver Ford Falcon in the moments leading up to the crash, or who may have dashcam they believe could be relevant to the investigation, is urged to contact Tweed Police or Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000.

your new home, your old routine When you can no longer live comfortably in your own home, you’re most welcome at ours. You’re used to the rhythms of your own life and moving home shouldn’t change that. In our homes you decide when to get up, go out, eat, relax and so on. You also choose when you want to be part of things and when you want to do your own thing.

Your decision to move to residential care is likely driven by the need for increasing levels of care, so we ensure those needs are met, around the clock, by our team of registered nurses, carers and any specialists needed.

We work closely with you and your family to understand not just your individual care needs and wishes, but also what makes a home a home for you. For many people these are often quite simple things, built naturally around inclusion, doing and belonging.

G&K Pools to host Pink Ribbon Day breakfast

By Jonathon Howard G&K POOL Solutions owners Graeme Krueger and Kim McDonough are hosting a special Pink Ribbon Day breakfast fundraiser on Friday, October 16, and they’re calling on locals to visit their business and dig deep for a great cause.

The Cancer Council’s Pink Ribbon campaign aims to raise awareness around breast and gynaecological cancers, as well as raise funds for prevention programs, support services and vital cancer research.

The Pink Ribbon Day fundraiser comes after their lives were affected by breast cancer including Ms McDonough losing a partner and a close friend. It was also prompted after Ms McDonough had her own brush with cancer recently.

She was recently undergoing an unrelated surgery when doctors discovered a cancerous tumour on her kidney.

“I’m all clear now,” she said.

“They managed to remove the kidney that had a tumour on the top of it.

“The doctors found the tumour, which was actually malignant, but contained to the tumour, so they were able to transplant my kidney and the recipient is doing really well.”

Ms McDonough said she found out about the tumour three weeks ago.

“It was just lucky they caught it early, and that the kidney’s tumour was not spreading so it could help someone else,” she said.

Both Ms McDonough and Mr Krueger said they both felt passionate about the Pink Ribbon Day cause as they have close friends battling cancer.

“That’s why we decided to host our own Pink Ribbon breakfast fundraiser,” Mr Krueger said. “As this is something families need and any small amount can help.”

The fundraising efforts have already stormed ahead online, with the G&K Pool Solutions team raising more than $1,000 and counting via the Pink Ribbon G&K Pool Solutions fundraising page.

“We’re hoping even more people will come along to the breakfast at the Wollumbin Street shop and support this great cause,” Ms McDonough said.

“We’ve already reached our goal of $1,000 and hoping to surpass it.”

The G&K Pool Solutions Pink Ribbon breakfast fundraiser will take place from 10am at 43 Wollumbin Street in Murwillumbah.

MORE THAN 700 digital thermometers are set to be distributed across local Aboriginal communities by the state government, to aid in monitoring and slowing down any potential spread of COVID-19.

Bugalwena General Practice at Tweed Heads South is among the more than 220 organisations across the state to receive the donated thermometers, which have made their way to areas as far north as the Tweed Shire and as far south as Moama and all the way inland to Broken Hill.

Member for Tweed Geoff Provest said Transport for NSW donated the thermometers to support the work of those who have a lead role in Aboriginal community health and other essential services.

“During the COVID-19 pandemic, different parts of the NSW Government have been working together to manage the risk of the virus and assist people in Aboriginal communities across the state,” Mr Provest said.

“These thermometers may seem like a small part in the overall fight against COVID-19, but the additional support will allow these organisations to better protect staff, customers and their wider communities while they continue to deliver frontline services.”

Book a mammogram

TWEED SHIRE women aged 50 to 74 are being encouraged to make their health a priority and book a free life-saving mammogram this Breast Cancer Awareness Month.

BreastScreen NSW North Coast Director, Jane Walsh, said she wants women in Northern NSW to make booking a breast screen a priority.

“BreastScreen NSW has implemented a range of hygiene and social distancing measures to ensure clinics and mobile screening vans are COVID-19 safe, to protect women, staff and the wider community,” she said.

Chief Cancer Officer and CEO of the Cancer Institute NSW, Professor David Currow, said early detection is key.

“In 2020 alone, it’s expected that more than 6,240 women in NSW will be diagnosed with breast cancer and 973 will die from the disease,” Professor Currow said.

“While these numbers are sobering, the good news is that if detected early, women have a 98 per cent chance of survival.”

If you are aged 50 to 74 book your free mammogram today with BreastScreen NSW online at book.breastscreen.nsw.gov. au or by calling 13 20 50.

Justine voices kids’ koala concerns “It’s so important that our children know that they are heard and they understand they can have an impact on issues that are so important to them,” Mrs Elliot said.

She told parliament that Burringbar Public School was “one of the many outstanding schools in my electorate”, and said she was very pleased recently to support the school with a $20,000 grant towards its playground, under the Local Schools Community Fund.

Mrs Elliot thanked the students and their teacher, Michelle Davenport, for sending the letter and said she looked forward to visiting the school and reporting to K/1D that their letter had been read into Hansard in the federal parliament.

“I hope these students continue to be remarkable advocates for koalas and flying foxes,” she said.

The class and Ms Davenport said, “after learning about extreme weather in Australia and how this affects our native animals, students collaboratively wrote a persuasive letter urging action to protect our koalas and flying foxes for generations to come.”

“We were so surprised, happy and excited when Mrs Elliot presented our letter to Parliament House,” they told The Weekly.

Mrs Wilks’ daughter Dawn Bosshart wrote to The Weekly to thank the cafe and several unknown locals who showered her mum in birthday wishes.

“We went for a coffee and the staff at the Take a Break Cafe gave her a little cake with candle,” she said.

“But they didn’t stop there and some of the staff came to our table to sing happy birthday,

with other patrons joining in and clapping, much to Mum’s embarrassed delight.”

Mrs Wilks also received flowers and chocolates from two separate ladies.

“She didn’t even know them,” Mrs Bosshart said.

“How wonderful it is to live in a country town with such kind and generous people.

“Then the family celebration took place the next day at Ocean Shores.”

By Jo Kennett FEDERAL MEMBER for Richmond Justine Elliot has shared excerpts of a letter she received from Burringbar school children in Federal Parliament on Thursday, October 8, about their fears for our koala population.

Mrs Elliot said class K/1D at Burringbar Public School had written to her saying how “super important” native animals are and that “koalas and flying foxes need our help”.

“Australian bushfires, floods and droughts are affecting flying foxes and koalas,” the letter said.

“They are dying because their habitat and food are being destroyed.

“Koalas and flying foxes have to travel further to find new homes, places to live and food.”

Mrs Elliot called it “a very persuasive letter” which spoke of how “koalas are forced out of their habitat every day and we need to save the koalas now if we want to see them in 30 years’ time and show our children.”

“We have to save the bushland being destroyed from new houses being built and trees being cut down,” the students said, who also mentioned how many koalas had been run over and asked drivers to slow down.

In response, Mrs Elliot told parliament she was “very pleased” to be able to advocate “on behalf of these wonderful students”.

Rescue squad wins energy efficiency grant Owner of Quantum Solar, Chris Liversedge, said he worked with Tweed District Rescue Squad to help decide which system was best for the squad, to enable them to secure the grant for the energy efficiency program.

“Part of that budget has allowed us to install a 10.8 kilowatt solar system on the roof and a full LED lighting upgrade and some floodlights out the front and back for the guys so they will be able to work there,” he said.

“There are loads of benefits to this apart from the energy efficiency going forward.

“The system will offset their energy bills and save greenhouse gases.

“It’s really good to be part of a local community project like this.”

Brian Vickery to launch new book

By Jonathon Howard KINGSCLIFF LOCAL and retired Lieutenant Colonel Brian Vickery OAM is set to release a new memoir titled ‘Down From the Mountain: The Path of a Baby Boomer’.

The book chronicles how both Mr Vickery’s life and the lives of his men were shaped by military service.

Mr Vickery was born in Murwillumbah and grew up on his parents’ banana plantation on the eastern side of Mount Warning.

In 1966, he was conscripted into the Australian National Service. He completed a 13-month tour in Vietnam with the 9th Battalion, Royal Australian Regiment and a two-year-long posting with the Brigade of Gurkhas.

Mr Vickery served 23 years in the Australian Army and achieved the rank of lieutenant colonel before retiring. In 2008, he was awarded the Order of Australia Medal for his service to surf lifesaving and to veterans, particularly those that served alongside him in Vietnam.

Mr Vickery has an extraordinary story to tell and said the book also draws from the stories of his father and uncles, both of whom served in World War II. Mr Vickery originally began writing ‘Down From the Mountain’ to preserve his father and uncles’ history. However, as the book progressed, he saw a connection between their service and his own, describing them as “ordinary people caught up in two different wars, the men were linked by their diligence, determination, and courage – qualities that, while learned on the battlefield, would follow them through the rest of their lives”.

Even deeper, however, was their unspoken bond, the one that all soldiers who have witnessed the realities of the front line share.

Despite growing up around World War II veterans, Mr Vickery was not keen on enlisting in the Australian Army. His path was

determined for him when he was conscripted during the Vietnam War, where he served a 13-month tour.

Afterwards, he continued to climb the ranks and served two years in the Northern Territory, a year in Hong Kong and a year in Brunei with the Brigade of Gurkhas.

Currently, Mr Vickery is treasurer of the Cudgen Headland Surf Life Saving Club and vice president of the Kingscliff sub-branch of the Returned and Services League. He lives at Kingscliff with his wife and has two daughters and four grandchildren.

While ‘Down From the Mountain’ spans decades of military history, it’s also a testimony to life as a baby boomer. Wedged between two major wars with an uncertain future, Vickery found his footing and led an extraordinary yet fulfilling life. Ultimately, he hopes readers of all ages understand that life is not simple and straightforward, rather it is unpredictable, requiring participants to make adjustments and take responsibility for their own course.

“Serving in the Australian Army was not my intended course, but I’ve learned it was the reason I followed a certain trajectory in life, one full of triumph and failure,” he said.

“Through sharing my story, I hope readers of all ages will see that it’s important to preserve oneself through difficulties, value educational experiences and take advantages of the opportunities that present themselves.”

The Community Energy Efficiency and Solar Grant 2020 is aimed at supporting energy efficient technologies which reduce power bills and greenhouse gas emissions.

Rescue Squad President Drew Carr said the grant had made it possible to upgrade all of their lighting to energy efficient LED lighting.

“We also added flood lighting to the front and rear of the shed to assist in training,” Mr Carr said.

“The grant application was open to a total of $10,000 and our grant will offset energy costs and that will all help to keep us operational.”

Lifeline needs community connectors

By Jonathon Howard LIFELINE IS calling on Tweed Shire residents who want to help build a suicide-safe community by becoming ‘Community Connectors’.

As part of a partnership between Lifeline and NRMA, Lifeline is recruiting community members to work in partnership with Lifeline to ensure early intervention and support for people who are struggling with their mental health.

Lifeline Direct Executive Director, Robert Sams, said the double trauma caused by bushfire and then COVID-19 has left many communities vulnerable to long-term mental health challenges, but said this can be turned around by equipping local community members to be suicide-safe.

“COVID-19 is challenging our ability to connect and recover from the bushfires together, so it’s more important than ever that we equip local people who have frequent interactions with other members of the community to be suicide aware,” Mr Sams said.

“The earlier someone can recognise the signs that another person may be struggling, the sooner we can intervene and get that person to the help they need.

“By working together with community, we will save lives.”

Mr Sams said Lifeline is now recruiting members of the community who have frequent access to others and who want to work in partnership with Lifeline to help save lives.

The Community Connector program, which has been developed with funding from NRMA, will train more than 3,000 community members across Australia’s east coast to be suicide aware.

Participants will be offered the opportunity to undertake Lifeline’s accredited Accidental Counsellor Course at no cost and will be supplied a suite of tool kits and wallet cards to help them refer community members who

may be struggling to the most appropriate support services.

“Our community has been through some really difficult times and local people understand the issues we’re facing best,” Mr Sams said.

“This program will empower local community members to take a proactive approach to the wellbeing of those around them by working with Lifeline as a Community Connector in their everyday interactions with the community.”

Lifeline is seeking expressions of interest from people who have regular interactions with community members.

“We know people who interact frequently with members of the community are in the ideal position to notice behaviour change, to recognise that someone may need some professional support to cope with their current state of mental health, so we are especially reaching out to frontline members of the community,” Mr Sams said.

“In the past, we have trained teachers, accountants, hairdressers, lawyers, publicans, priests and community workers to recognise the signs and intervene.

“These are all people who others may open up to or who can notice important changes.

If you would like to help us save lives, please get in touch.”

To express your interest in being a Lifeline Community Connector, please contact Cath Bird, Community Engagement Coordinator: catherine.bird@lifeline.org.au

Gold Coast Titans Chairman Dennis Watt will be a special guest speaker at the Kingscliff Chamber

Talk business with Gold Coast Titans chairman

GOLD COAST Titans chairman Dennis Watt is set to give a free talk on business recovery at a special Kingscliff & District Chamber of Commerce meeting named ‘Rising From The Ashes’ on Friday, October 16.

Kingscliff Chamber President James Owen said the visit, which was in celebration of Small Business Month, will focus on turning businesses around following the impacts of the coronavirus.

“We are really excited to have Dennis come and talk to us and share his extensive experience of turning struggling organisations around,” Mr Owen said.

“Not only is he a phenomenal organisational strategist, a titan of the business world, but he’s also a fantastic communicator and a really down to earth bloke.”

Mr Owen said the chamber decided to name the event ‘Rising from the Ashes’ because of the correlation between the Titans turnaround that Dennis has led and the journey we are all on with COVID recovery.

Mr Watt joined the Titans NRL club at the end of 2017 when the Frizelle and Kelly families took over the ownership of the club from the NRL. Prior to that, he was chairman of the Brisbane Broncos (2013-17) having joined the board in 2003. Before becoming chairman of the Broncos, Mr Watt was general manager of Queensland Newspapers for News Corporation Australia, which owns sixty nine percent of the club.

“News Corp sent Mr Watt to Melbourne in 2010 to take charge of their rugby league assets – the Broncos, the Melbourne Storm and, at that stage, half of the NRL; and to help the Storm get back on its feet after the salary cap issues,” Mr Owen said.

The event is set to kick off from 5.30pm for a 6pm start and anyone interested in attending is encouraged to email: info@ kingscliffchamber.com.au Pleases note, you must be a member to attend, but you are welcome to take advantage of the chamber’s 2020/21 free membership offer. Tickets are limited due to COVID-19 restrictions.

Final push for Chinderah Historical Cemetery sign

By Jonathon Howard THE FINAL push is on to raise the last $2,350 in a bid to construct a sign at the Chinderah Historical Cemetery, with $3,165 already donated and more than $5,000 needed.

Residents are being asked to dig deep for this worthy cause via a GoFundMe campaign website or by contacting organiser Robyn Tait Watego.

Ms Watego said the new sign is proposed to incorporate both white settlers and South Sea Islanders, who are buried side-by-side in the historical cemetery.

The GoFundMe campaign was launched in June this year with a target of around $5,000, according to Ms Watego and her team from the Helping Hands Group.

She wanted to thank those who have already donated and she’s calling for one last push to get them over the line.

“We’re so close to reaching our target and making this new signage a reality to celebrate both the South Sea Islanders and white settlers who are buried there together,” she said.

“We’re just asking for any amount of donations to allow us to hit our target.”

Ms Watego said the group was again calling for any families who know of relatives that are buried in the cemetery.

“We are hoping to update the burial list; if there is no grave, plaques can still be placed in there and names placed on the list,” she said.

The group are also working with Tweed Shire Council to fix the fencing around the cemetery.

“We are also working with Council to fix fencing around the site and we are aiming to put up a sign to suit everyone,” Ms Watego said.

Ms Watego said the group also have support from members of the Tweed Gold Coast South Sea Islander Association.

“Many thanks go those donors, who have already given to this great cause,” she said.

“We’re really hoping we can get through this last fundraising effort to see the sign in place.

“I would also like to thank Steve Maguire for volunteering his time for research and his donation.”

Ms Watego said anyone who requires more information is encouraged to contact her via email: robbykt60@gmail.com

Free eye tests available for children

By Jonathon Howard TWEED SHIRE parents can soon take advantage of a free eye check for their children, aged at least four years, which experts say is essential for the early identification of eye and vision problems as well as reducing the likelihood of vision loss.

The Statewide Eyesight Preschooler Screening (StEPS) team is encouraging all parents to get their kids tested at three sites across the Tweed, including Pottsville HealthOne on Friday, November 13, Kingscliff Community Health Centre on Tuesday, November 17, and Banora Point Community Centre on Thursday, November 19.

Northern NSW StEPS Coordinator Jennifer McKay said early screening leads to optimal vision.

“It is critical that this screening is provided to four-year-olds before they start school to maximise clinical benefit and outcomes for children,” she said.

“If a child has blurry vision, they will think this is normal as they don’t have a baseline to compare it to, this is why it is so vital your children get screened.”

Free screening is available to all fouryear-old children and parents are encouraged to book ahead by phoning (02) 6620 2836.

Please note, children who do not attend centres (are not in care or are in home care) can also get access to the free service.

Team Koala opens new headquarters

By Jonathon Howard A COMMUNITY effort has helped Team Koala President Jenny Hayes move out of her bedroom office and into the group’s first official headquarters since its inception in 2009.

Located in Murwillumbah at Ms Hayes’ home, the new headquarters were made from scratch and with the help of Team Koala members and local businesses, to which Ms Hayes said she was “eternally grateful”.

The shed-style headquarters now has ample storage for Team Koala signs, paperwork and more, as well as room for a desk and cabinets.

“It’s amazing, I’ve finally moved out of my bedroom and into the new headquarters,” she said.

“A big thank you to Team Koala member Alex Dale who was our project manager for our Team Koala headquarters.”

Ms Hayes said nothing on the build was prefabricated and Mr Dale organised and assigned individual tasks for the unskilled, semi-skilled and skilled workers.

Ms Hayes wanted to make a special thank you to Team Koala members Maria Smart, Michelle and Marty McAnally, Eva Robinson, Max Barnard and Simon Dawson.

“Another thank you to the hospitality workers Hilary Singleton and Eva Robinson who fed the tireless workers,” she said.

“Some schools donated desks and file cupboards, and JH Williams who transported our materials to the headquarters free of charge.

“A big thank you to everyone who got involved as Team Koala now has

Team Koala President Jenny Hayes is loving the new headquarters after 11 years

a wonderful shed to work from due to everyone’s generosity and kindness.”

Ms Hayes said she also wanted to extend her gratitude to members of the public during the recent return of the Pottsville Markets on Sunday, October 4.

“First time opening since February, the public came out in force and opened their hearts to our group as we raised over $530,” she said. “ O t h e r s t a l l h o l d e r s s i m i l a r ly commented on what a great day they had. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts for your kindness and generosity.”

Meanwhile, the fight to aid Tweed’s fleeting koala numbers was raised by Greens MP and Chair of the NSW Upper House Inquiry into Koalas, Cate Faehrmann, who said the backdown by the NSW Liberals on the new Koala

SEPP Guidelines “to demands by the National Party means the future of the Koala in NSW is looking even more bleak”.

“Koalas have suffered so much, with at least one third of them killed in the bushfires,” said Ms Faehrmann “They are now seeking refuge and safety in the pockets of bushland and forests which remain.

“Any further loss could be devastating for local populations which are the key to the species’ ongoing survival.

“For the Liberals to back down on the definition of core koala habitat after years of extensive research and mapping by experts is hugely disappointing.”

It Takes a Town with Carmen Stewart

WE HAVE an amazing community, full of energetic and passionate people, who genuinely care for residents and the future of our region.

Our recent Pulse Check survey had a high take up of more than 340 people, revealing new trends that we are keen to further address.

It revealed that 98 per cent of respondents are likely to help an unknown neighbour in crisis, that 94 per cent find others to be generous, and that 90 per cent are trusting of fellow community members.

Concerningly, over half said they would not reach out to neighbours, the community or to It Takes A Town (ITAT) for support if they were vulnerable.

We want to turn this around and identify how we can support this large group who may be reluctant to ask for help.

Our collective generosity was on show recently at The 2484 Reset Workshop co-presented by ITAT and ChangeFest.

Almost 80 leaders and changemakers from a cross-section of the 2484 came together to explore what a thriving, resilient and adaptive community looks like, and the pathways towards it.

The ‘place-based social change’ workshop began with a Welcome to Country by Aunty Deidre, after which residents, services, churches, businesses, groups and government, participated in a day-long event exploring their shared social, economic and ecological priorities.

The aim was to identify common points of mission to deepen collaboration and impact.

‘Reset’ means ‘to move back to an original position’, to ‘get rid of what’s unnecessary or unhealthy’, or ‘to put a new gem into an old piece of jewellery’.

These were powerful metaphors for how we harness our collective efforts. A report on findings, projects and pathways forward will be released soon.

Stay tuned and stay well, Carmen.

Sweet Talk with Robert Hawken

RIP Wayne Rogers as harvest progressing well

Cape Byron partners with rowing club

By Jonathon Howard THE MURWILLUMBAH Rowing Club has been given a boost during a tumultuous year for the sport, after local company Cape Byron Power announced a new major partnership with the club.

Despite the suspension of the iconic 2020 Head of The Tweed rowing event due to the COVID-19 pandemic, Cape Byron Power has stepped forward to offer its support over the coming year as the rowing community prepares for the regatta to be held in 2021.

The partnership is an ideal fit as Cape Byron Power’s Condong facility lines the banks of the Tweed River, which the Murwillumbah Rowing Club uses year-round for training and competition and is also used for the Head of The Tweed races.

Murwillumbah Rowing Club President Simon Hillman said it was a great move to partner with Cape Byron Power, “who are supporting local people through their core business and also through community partnerships like this”.

“Murwillumbah Rowing Club has held its Head of The Tweed, rowing event – until the 2020 cancellation due to COVID – consecutively for 14 years,” he said.

“It’s the club’s biggest fundraising event and attracts participants from around Australia.”

Mr Hillman said running the event comes at great expense, so the new sponsorship announcement came as a welcome surprise.

“It’s fantastic news that a large local company like Cape Byron Power have come on board to support the club and the Head of The Tweed 2021,” he said.

The 2021 Cape Byron Power Head of The Tweed regatta, organised by the Murwillumbah Rowing Club is currently scheduled for Sunday, June 27, 2021.

Cape Byron Power CEO Mark Greenaway said Cape Byron Power is “delighted to be partnering with our local rowing club” to ensure that the first post-COVID regatta in June 2021 is a success.

“It makes perfect sense for us to become a major sponsor of Murwillumbah Rowing Club and to continue to assist the local community,” Mr Greenaway said.

“Our values are aligned, and we see the club’s rowers training on the Tweed River from our offices next to the water, so we can’t wait for the Head of The Tweed regatta in 2021.”

Cane planting is now almost completed, and the young cane appears to be germinating well despite some cool nights persisting.

A few light showers would benefit the young cane once it has come up, but we need to be careful what we wish for here in the Tweed Valley, especially as the long -range forecast is for above average rainfall this spring and summer.

Preparation for soybean planting will soon get underway and soy prices are forecast to be exceptionally good again this season.

With the recent dry conditions, green cane harvesting and cane straw baling are on the increase. This will continue while the weather holds.

The cane straw is used as garden mulch and is distributed widely across several states.

Best wishes, stay safe and well, from Tweed Cane Growers.

Cape Byron CEO Mark Green, Michelle Grimes and Murwillumbah Rowing Club President Simon Hillman are looking forward to their new partnership

THE NSW sugar industry has been shocked and saddened by the recent tragic death of a leading sugar industry identity, Mr Wayne Rogers of Pimlico, who was killed recently in an on-farm accident.

Wayne held several senior positions in the sugar industry and is recognised as a leading innovator and progressive farmer, along with his late father Warren and his brother Craig.

Rest in peace – a great friend and colleague to so many people in the farming community.

Condong area cane growers extend their sympathy to his family and good friends.

Condong Mill has now reached 66 per cent of the harvest and the crop forecast total is just over 508,000 tonnes of cane.

This should be achieved without too many wet weather interruptions, well before Christmas.

Booze cut off and police on high alert at grand final

A Hornets player gets a pass away

Cudgen Hornets are the champions of the Under 18s

By Jo Kennett IT WAS the first home grand final the Tweed Coast Raiders had ever hosted but it didn’t go to plan, with a heavy police presence, reports of fines being handed out and the bar shut down at Les Burger Field, Cabarita on Saturday, October 10.

Tweed Byron LAC Police Chief Inspector Mick Dempsey could not say if fines were issued.

“Police were there to ensure compliance with licensing and COVID-19 health orders,” Ch Insp Dempsey said.

“Enquiries are continuing into licensing matters and COVID-related compliance.”

The increased police presence stemmed from a complaint about crowd numbers received

by Tweed Police and Tweed Shire Council following the major semi-final between Murwillumbah and Tweed Coast on Sunday, September 27, at Cabarita.

Police and Council informed the NRRRL they would be at the game to monitor numbers.

Supporters weren’t impressed, saying thousands of spectators at Sydney NRL finals were sitting side by side while the Tweed Shire hasn’t had any COVID cases since April.

The NSW Office of Premier and Cabinet told The Weekly that the capacity for Sydney stadiums had been increased “to a maximum of 40,000 spectators” however “a major recreation facility” which is “not hosting a ticketed and seated event can only admit 500 people.”

Raiders president Blake Curry said vice president Mike Ashburn got permission from the NSW Health Minister to divide

It was back to back wins for the Raiders reserve grade side

Police and security guards at the Raiders grand final

the grounds into two fenced-off areas, with Murwillumbah and Cudgen fans taking up two sides of the field and Tweed Coast Raiders the other two, to allow for 1,000 spectators, players, staff and volunteers.

“We couldn’t have cross contamination between the two sides, so we had to set up an extra bar, port-a-loos and food trucks,” he said.

“We worked hard to make the day COVIDsafe, including hiring security guards and having extra ground managers patrolling.”

Capacity was reached by around lunchtime, hours before the first grade game was due to Tweed Coast Raiders celebrating their win start, with a long line of supporters waiting at Photo by Bridey McNeven and front page photo the two gates for others to leave.

The consumption of alcohol was confined to a roped off area which quickly reached capacity with concerned club officials eventually having to close the bar halfway through the reserve grade game, with some spectators leaving the ground to watch the game elsewhere.

Raiders first grade captain Drew Lanston said he was “all for COVID safety and I don’t want people to be involved in anything that spreads COVID.” “There are people that have lost their jobs and lives so I don’t want to complain, but it would have been good to have the day the same as it had been all year with minimal Police were out in force restrictions,” Lanston said.

“It’s been a long time coming having a home grand final; all the fans have been riding with us for years and to have the biggest day shutdown it sucks for us and them”.

It is estimated the club lost around $15,000 in liquor sales.

NRRRL Grand Final Wrap Up Report 33

Raiders take NRRRL premiership, Cudgen gets the Under 18s title Murwillumbah, coming away with a 28-16 win with Tom Weaver man of the match.

“It was a really good effort from the boys with a few players coming back from first grade as did Murwillumbah,” Coach Shane O’Flanagan said.

“It was a great effort after losing the major semi to win the game today.

“It shows we have a good future with some of the younger players coming through.”

Reserve grade was a hard-fought battle with the Raiders just edging out the Mustangs 14-10.

Raiders captain Luke Campbell said his team “started strong and scored two good tries early.”

“Ollie Lindley scored a great try early which set up the win for us and Josh Bowden (MVP) came into the team and had a great game as did Luke Snell off the bench,” Campbell said.

“Murbah got their second wind and came back but we were lucky to hang on for the win.”

In first grade the Mustangs were within reach of victory for much of the game but the Raiders always looked in control, getting the win 24-18.

Mustangs coach Nathan Jordan said his boys had their chances.

“We scored three tries today and after each try we didn’t complete our next set,” Jordan said.

“In the big games you can’t do that and they scored off those mistakes.

“It’s been tough this year, but the local games were nice and strong, really hard and really physical but

E

Cudgen Hornets are the champions of the Under 18s

the physicality of the games took a toll.”

Dan Willoughby said the Raiders “know what Murbah brings; every game it’s been tough.”

“They are a quality team and they got Adam Walker, Besgrove and Toby back,” Willoughby said “We had a goal at the start of the year to win for Rubes, for Justin Cullen and Kitey’s late brother as of late, so it was good that everyone put in and it was a great day for the club with three wins.”

Raiders captain Drew Lanston said they were “very confident the whole game.”

“Once again they scored off two kicks so our defence was really good and every time we went to their end we got through them,” Lanston said.

“Jack O’Brien scored straight away but it was ruled a knock-on which was a dead set try and we scored multiple points.

“Last time Eggie said he wanted to play us at Caba because he thought it swayed it being at Caba which made us more confident.

“We made the promise to get the win for Rubes (Chris Cameron) and we did.

“I want to thank all the volunteers that stuck through the year, especially our canteen volunteers who were really stressed on Saturday, but got on with the job and did it all year so on behalf of the club we want to thank you all.”

It was a disappointing day for the Mustangs who are always formidable opponents.

Bilambil had a heartbreaking loss in the finals but have proved a great addition to the NRRRL, and we look forward to seeing them back in action next year.

The final series marked the end of two outstanding league careers with Mitch Spackman bowing out

from the Jets and going back to cross-dressing.

Raiders captain Guy Lanston also retires with a bloody big crater in his skull after a brilliant career but you can be sure both legends will be found lurking around their clubs next season.

Thanks from The Weekly to the Mustangs’ Nathan, Nigel, Debbie and Tammy; Craig and Mickey at the Jets; Raiders’ Guy, Drew, Mikey, Boogs, Tony, Trudy and Bridey and Mark, Letitia and Peta at the Hornets for all your help.

The biggest thanks to the players who fronted up for some of the toughest battles ever among the four best clubs in the NRRRL (not that we’re biased), to the NRRRL for keeping the comp running and to the amazing volunteers who held the whole circus together with their blood, sweat and tears.

See you all back next year when we will show those pesky southerners who the boss is.

By Jo Kennett IT WAS a brilliant day of grand final football for the Green Division of the NRRRL and with the Tweed Coast Raiders winning three from three, while the Hornets got the win in the Under 18s at Les Burger Field on Saturday, October 10.

The day kicked off with the Ladies League Tag grand final between hot favourites Cudgen and the Raiderettes.

The 4-2 scoreline was all penalty goals with the Raiderettes going back to back with the winning goal on the buzzer.

Coach Trudy Carter said it was the “hardest game” for her girls.

“It was in the middle of the day and it was so hot, and for the second half of the game we didn’t even make a change,” Carter said.

“I think it just came down to who wanted the game the most and it was us.”

Player of the match, Raiderettes’ captain Sarah Doyle said it was a great win off the back of three losses.

“At one point we were struggling to field a team and we had no subs, but we just came together,” Doyle said.

Hornets co-captain Maggie Butler said they were “pretty disappointed”.

“I couldn’t be prouder of the girls making the grand final after just two seasons and it makes us more determined for next year to come back and make even more of an impact,” Butler said.

Cudgen got redemption in the Under 18s grand final against

Mr Pyett also began by making drawings as studies.

“The first part of Margaret Olley’s house that intrigued me as a subject for still life paintings was the display of objects on the mantelpiece in the yellow sitting room,” Mr Pyett said.

“The first few drawings I made were of these objects. When I returned to my own studio I made paintings from the drawings I did in Margaret’s house.”

Ms Tippett’s approach differed because she painted her compositions directly from life.

She selected a small number of objects, restaging them against a neutral background in the Nancy Fairfax Artist in Residence Studio.

“It was a treat to enter Margaret’s re-created home studio and sit amongst her extensive and eclectic collection of objects and soak up the atmosphere,” Ms Tippet said.

This intersection of Olley’s home studio and her paintings alongside the contemporary responses presents a renewed context for Olley’s practice and the genre of still life painting in Australia today.

The exhibition ‘Margaret’s House’ will be on display in the Margaret Olley Art Centre at Murwillumbah from October 28, until May 2, 2021.

The Gallery’s online artmaking challenge, Unlocking Margaret’s House, will continue throughout this exhibition.

Exciting new look at Margaret Olley

By Jonathon Howard AN EXCITING new exhibition featuring previously unseen Margaret Olley still lifes and interiors, plus new works by three contemporary Australian painters, are featured in ‘Margaret’s House’, the latest exhibition at the Margaret Olley Art Centre open from Wednesday, October 28.

Tweed Regional Gallery & Margaret Olley Art Centre Director, Susi Muddiman OAM, said painters Nicholas Harding, Pam Tippett and Adam Pyett were invited to explore the re-creation of Margaret Olley’s home studio at the Gallery, using it as inspiration for their own works.

“For nearly 50 years, Olley’s home studio was both site and subject matter for her paintings. The Margaret’s House exhibition re-activates the home studio as subject matter for painting,” Ms Muddiman said.

Nicholas Harding chose to begin by drawing in Olley’s famous sitting room.

“Drawing all day in the Gallery’s re-creation of Margaret’s home and studio is a lovely way to be in conversation with someone who isn’t there but whose presence can be felt everywhere in the room,” Mr Harding said.

After making multiple studies and sketches during his residency, on returning to his studio, he then completed a spectacular painting of the interior titled ‘The poppy rider’.

Mr Harding’s generous and dynamic application of paint captures a sense of the theatrical energy of the space infused with the colours, textures and forms that Olley arranged in her home.

By Jonathon Howard RIPPLES CAFE at North Star Holiday Resort, Hastings Point, has amped up their Saturday afternoons with ‘Beers and Beats’, a live entertainment offering on their huge undercover outdoor deck for guests and locals alike.

This Saturday, October 17, Liam Kirk takes the stage at Ripples from 2pm to 4pm, performing his own style of piano blues, New Orleans jazz, and classics from the Doors, creating the perfect mood to unwind.

Then on Saturday, October 24, Ripples welcomes singer Bella Paton to the deck for the first time.

The talented young singer recently released her debut EP, described as “A mix of indie pop/folk goodness that will warm your toes but tug at your heartstrings”.

The Ripples team said they were thrilled to be back supporting local artists, many of whom have struggled to find work during the pandemic.

Tiffen Grace has become a popular performer at Ripples and from November 14, she will play every second Saturday of the month. Tiff says she can’t wait to be back playing at her local again after many crazy months.

“It’s always a great crowd and an awesome vibe,” she said.

Beers and Beats-goers can enjoy share platters, dine from the extensive Ripples menu,

indulge in a cocktail or two, and indulge in happy hour drink prices.

Book a table for lunch at Ripples on Saturday and make it a triple treat – beers, beats and beautiful food.

Ripples, led by head chef Chris Walsh, has recently introduced a new apring menu, inspired by Australian and international cuisine and the cafe’s beachside location.

Dishes are bursting with colour, flavour and freshness while acknowledging the shift in dining trends towards healthy yet flavoursome food with more vegetarian and contemporary dishes, and popular staples like premium Northern Rivers steaks, and beer battered fish and chips hold their place on the new menu.

If you plan to dine at Ripples, it’s best to book ahead as numbers are limited due to COVIDSafe restrictions. Call (02) 6676 2010 to reserve your table.

Tiffen Grace will perform at Ripples in November

Talking 23 WALKS

Eager new sailors join sailing club

At the helm

with Bill Fenelon

TWEED VALLEY Sailing Club hosted is first race of the summer series on Sunday, October 11.

A total of 18 boats raced on the Fingal Reach on the long Olympic course – three laps with one nautical mile windward legs – in lovely clear and sunny weather with a light south-south-easterly breeze. Two different races were conducted concurrently.

Fastest and leading all the way was Laser ‘Bluey’ with Kate Yeomans beating second finisher Laser ‘Rolling Stone’ (Monique Smith) by one minute and third was Laser (Peter Fell) only 20 seconds behind. This was a great result for Monique and her best ever in a Laser since switching from her Corsair.

The big race was the first heat of the Corsair Class Championship, which is a monthly scratch race involving five heats throughout summer.

Eight Corsairs lined up at the start and all boats were hustling for a good position on the crowded starting line.

In the end, ‘Monopoly’ (Andy Lamont, Melissa Le Roux and John Morgan) lead all the way, and took the bullet for a convincing win, finishing three minutes and 30 seconds ahead of second placed ‘None the Wiser’ (Justin Johnson, Eden Johnson and Emily Johnson), and very close behind, only 15 seconds later, ‘Nimbis’ (Debbie Jones, Scott Jones and Renee Cohan).

Fourth was ‘Minnow’ (Frank Bolfava, Andrew Locke and Brandon Locke) and fifth was ‘Keenas’ (Mark Reynolds, Marg Walgers and Joe D’Ambrosia.)

The club today welcomed a new Corsair team sailing ‘Polly’ (Greg Edds, Ulana Edds and Tom Edds) who travelled from Brisbane to race with us on the Tweed River.

The other race was the club’s summer point score series, where every race counts, and is based on handicap.

Top points went to Impulse class ‘Splitter’ (Lex Branch), second was Laser ‘Rolling Stone’ (Monique Smith) and third was Impulse ‘Rosie’ (Adam Hurt).

Junior sailors were well represented with three teams sailing NS14s. The top junior team was NS14 ‘Zazen’ sailed by Tom Busbridge and Layla Schultz, just edging out on handicap NS14 ‘On & Off’ (Dave Robinson and Hugh Robinson), while on NS14 ‘Mantana’, Tristen and Isabelle Pofandt are still working out the rigging of these complex boats and unfortunately missed the start.

Thanks to our support team who make racing possible; Geoff Colwill on our rescue boat and timekeeper Suzanne Blatcher, who was helped by Jack Tarrent who came down and volunteered for the day.

The club’s next event will be three short course races held on the Fingal reach on Sunday, October 25, starting at 1pm NSW time. The big race will be our premier contemporary development class, the Australian NS14, racing the first three heats of their club championship and concurrently the second heat of the summer point score.

Crew positions are often available but this is on spec.

Licensed and competent boat drivers are welcome to help by driving our rescue boats.

Spectators can view racing close up from the riverbank along the Fingal reach. All visitors are very welcome. For more information please phone Commodore Bill Fenelon on: 0411 123 405.

I don’t know about you, but I love dogs and believe – as all the books on the subject confirm – that people who walk their pets daily are less prone to heart attack, are healthier, happier and make friends more easily, especially among other dogs lovers. That is certainly true for Dave and Fern, the protagonists of 23 Walks, a new gentle and romantic British drama with a touch of comedy.

The story is simple, yet affecting. Dave, a retired psychiatric nurse who lives on his own, has Tillie, a beautiful big old German shepherd, as companion, while recent divorcee Fern has Henry, a sparky little Yorkshire terrier. The four meet by chance on a dog walk in a park, and after a difficult first encounter due to Tillie not being on a leash they get to gradually know each other. By the time Dave and Fern have walked together 23 times they have first become friends and then fallen in love with each other - and their dogs have become best friends even quicker..!

However, Dave and Fern are both in their sixties and carry a lot of psychological baggage, difficult to share with someone else and to eventually

shed in order to be able to love again. They also have housing issues, performance anxiety in bed, and some difficult, unsolved situations to deal with. Besides, they both have kids, who for different reasons are an impediment to their parents feeling young and desirable again.

In terms of structure and subject matter 23 Walks reminded me of both the Richard Linklater’s trilogy Before Sunrise, Before Sunset and Before Midnight and also of the more recent Our Souls at Night – all wonderful movies, with terrific scripts and performances. This one is a ‘simpler’ version of a similar storyline but there is something about the way it is constructed and the ordinary look of the two protagonists that makes the movie completely realistic and believable. Dave and Fern don’t have the faces of glamorous movie stars, they could be any of us, and you can’t help but identify with them, their hopes and fears. It is quite refreshing to watch a film that portrays late-age romance with such honesty and kindness. Despite its modest production value, 23 Walks is a very enjoyable film, to be watched preferably while hugging your best canine friend, of course..!

Tweed Valley Weekly Locals Supporting Locals

Vulcans AFL Club wrap up another outstanding season despite distruptions year. With the level of skill and fitness in this age group across the Northern Rivers, 2021 looks to be an exciting season of footy.

Well done to the U8s, U10s Footy4Fun and Auskick kids who have developed their footy skills over the season and our talented U15 girls and U11 boys, with two of our U11 boys celebrating 50 games this season.

Congratulations also to our Vulcans umpire Bella Kidman on receiving the AFLQ Umpire4Fun ‘Club Umpire of the Year’ award for South East Queensland.

In what has been a challenging year for everybody, we have had a great season only made possible

by the people who make up this great club, from our players, committee members, coaches and sponsors who have worked hard to make this year the success that it has been.

A huge thanks to our sponsors and local businesses who have supported and stuck by us this season including Murwillumbah Services Club, IGA Tweed Valley, Hardings Earthmoving, WorkwearHub, Murwillumbah Dental, Active Life Physio,

Scales Seafood and Sportsworld Murwillumbah.

Thank you must also go to Tweed Shire Council and staff who not only provided us with our fantastic new facilities and great playing fields this season, but were also very supportive financially in waving our fees this season and accommodating the changes needed to ensure the Northern Rivers AFL season could successfully proceed.

With this assistance, the Murwillumbah Vulcans were able to operate as one of the Northern Rivers footy hubs in the COVID bubble, hosting games every weekend.

This meant that kids across our region were able to continue with their sport and have fun.

The 2021 season will be starting before we know it, for any families who have boys or girls that have either played AFL before or have never picked up a ball, we would love to have you come down and be part of our club next season.

Look out for our promotions including Auskick starting early next year.

Please feel free to contact me directly regarding being involved with the Vulcans by phoning: 0419 971 231.

Manufacturers recommend that you maintain the anode in your system in order to prevent damage from rust + corrosion.

“ Forever Young ” Wish you were here with us, from your loving family.

When the whales come through, we think of you

Holding Shot with Judy Tuckey CHAMPION OF Club Champions Pairs – the second last district competition for 2020 – was conducted at Bangalow over the weekend, with eight club champion teams vying for the top gong.

Top quality bowls delivered by all contestants certainly provided super entertainment for spectators.

Cabarita’s Rick Maunders and Keith Foran were involved in a close duel with Kingscliff ’s Peter Murphy and Vic Lewis until the 17th end.

Dropping a count of six, followed by a big five, resulted in the Caba

lads being nine shots down with only three ends left to play.

In a tremendous fightback, Cabarita’s finest kept Kingscliff ’s team scoreless for the final ends and conceded defeat only two shots down.

The Peter McGuinness and Tony Lattanzi (Pottsville) versus Jean Claude Canabou and Larry Henry (Mullumbimby) clash resulted in the Potty lads grabbing the lead early and powering on to notch up a solid margin and a spot in the semis.

Condong’s father and son combo, Michael and Jimmy Knight, went straight to the semis, courtesy of

Our lives go on without you but nothing is ever the same.

We have to hide our heartaches, when someone speaks your name. Sad are the hearts that love you, silent are the tears that fall. Living here without you is the hardest part of all. The special years will not return, when we were altogether.

But the love that’s in our hearts, you’ll walk with us forever.

Loved and missed by Husband Bruce, Daughter Rosemary and Anthony. Rhonda (Dec) and Ken. Sandra and John. Son Tom and Wendy. Lorraine and James.

All your Grandchildren and their partners. A friend of everyone who knew her. Love forever in our hearts and thoughts.

a forfeit from Byron Bay’s Gavin McPhail and Sam Skehan.

Ocean Shores’ Troy Makin and JT Gray challenged Bangalow’s Jeff Nolan and Gerry Swain.

In a tough contest, team Swain snatched the lead after four ends and held Ocean Shores at bay with a narrow margin up to the 15th.

Ocean Shores moved up a gear, collected a count of four to take over control and went on to win with a slender surplus.

After winning their previous round, Peter McGuinness and Tony Lattanzi then faced off against Peter Murphy and Vic Lewis in semi one.

Team Lattanzi opened the card and held their opponents at arm’s length in a tough match during their march to the final.

Semi two, between Ocean Shores and Condong, evolved into a close encounter.

Team Makin built up a five-shot lead after five ends before the Knights retaliated and reduced their deficit.

Ocean Shores struck again to build up a seven-shot lead. Team Knight replies saw them only two shots down with two ends to go.

Collecting two singles, Ocean Shores then claimed the game.

Pottsville opened the card in what panned out to be a tough final against Ocean Shores.

After scoring three shots in the first two ends, the tide turned as Ocean Shores fired up to take control.

Twelve ends completed then the Shores lads held a tidy lead, being 16-5 up. A resurgence from Pottsville resulted in them

MARGO THE KING!!!

Tapped in to the waves with Terry Tappa’ Teece

THE BOOST Mobile Pro at South Stradbroke Island was a great event to be a part of and the surfing action was amazing with well-deserved wins for Isabella Nichols and Mikey Wright, grabbing dominant victories in the finals.

Finals day was super solid TOS and the surfing was just off the hook. The opening heat of the morning of finals day saw the clock wound back with a heritage heat taking place between five of surfing’s most iconic and celebrated names.

The 1999 World Champion Mark ‘Occy’ Occhilupo came up against Bede Durbidge, Dean

Margieson slots into the perfect backdoor to claim victory!

Morrison, Brendan Margieson and Kieren Perrow in a 30-minute shootout where all competitors showed they still had it in hollow, spitting tubes.

In the end, it was the iconic free-surfer Brendan ‘Margo’ Margieson who took the win with an awesome backdoor tube ride with a sneaky ‘doggy-door’ exit.

The Tweed Coast surfer was on fire and had quite a few people in awe quote: “Margo has been ripping”. After commentating the event from the dunes, I can say it was even bigger than it looked on TV. Margo was pretty wrapped and stoked with the win.

“I’ve only had one big win in my career and that was in 1996 at Nias, so this feels amazing,” Margieson said.

“It was such an honour to get the call up for this event and get to surf with some of my great mates and favourite surfers, especially in such pumping surf.

“I feel I was lucky to get that barrel because all of those guys are still so talented, I’m just so stoked to have had this opportunity.”

A great win for Margo and his shaper Matt Hurworth was stoked as well with his win and is now in the midst of making new quivers for Margo and Chippa Wilson.

Grommets get some skills!

Surfing NSW is pleased to announce the launch of the Surfing NSW Creative Kids program.

It looks like a great program and another skill that grommets can use in their resume, and best of all it is free.

The program is a new six-week course where grommets will learn the basics of surf photography, filming and content creation as well as tips to build a portfolio and get their work seen.

The program will develop a creative skillset for high-schoolaged participants through a series of online modules.

In another time, in a happier place, you’ll meet again reducing their deficit to just one shot down after keeping the Shores scoreless for six ends straight.

Ocean Shores retaliated with a count of two plus a single with Pottsville snatching a single on the final end and conceding defeat by a mere three shots. Congrats to both teams on a great final.

Stay safe and well and be kind to each other.

Troy Makin and JT Gray, TBDBA 2020 CofCC Pairs Winners

All classes are covered by the $100 Creative Kids voucher (available to download from Service NSW).

In addition, all participants will receive a prize pack from our sponsors Havaianas, discounts on equipment from AquaTech as well as money-can’t-buy experiences with some of the most renowned photographers and filmers in surfing.

Over the course of the program, Surfing NSW will aim to provide all students with skills that they will be able to grow and use to best capture their love of the ocean and showcase each of their unique perspectives.

Surfing NSW CEO Luke Madden is elated to get the Surfing NSW Creative Kids program up and running.

“The Surfing NSW Creative Kids program is an initiative that I’m extremely passionate about and I believe that budding photographers and hobbyists will be able to learn a lot about how they can create decent imagery and film pieces,” he said.

The first module in the Surfing NSW Creative Kids is ready to be watched right now and modules continue to drop every week over the next six weeks.

Participants can join any time and are free to binge-watch all six episodes at their convenience.

High demand for rentals across Tweed

By Jonathon Howard RENTAL VACANCY rates throughout the Tweed Shire have dropped to some of the lowest levels ever seen this year, with one popular coastal suburb recording a vacancy rate of zero in September.

The data from property research firm SQM Research shows a sharp rise in weekly rents across several Tweed suburbs.

Since being named as Australia’s best beach earlier this year, the vacancy rate at Cabarita Beach/Bogangar has dropped from 0.9% one year ago to 0.7% and 0% this month.

Despite the high demand, rents for houses at Cabarita have held steady at just over $600 per week.

Units were a different story, with weekly rents increasing by 17.5% over the past quarter and 11.3% over the past year.

The remainder of the Tweed Shire recorded vacancy rates between 0.3% and 0.5% in September – the lowest recorded in the past three years.

As a result of the increased demand on rentals, several suburbs have seen sharp increases in weekly rents over the past quarter.

The largest increase in rents was seen throughout the 2485 postcode, which includes Tweed Heads and Tweed Heads West, and increased by 16.1% over three months and 18.7% over 12 months to a current price of $639 per week.

The second highest rental price growth was in the 2486 postcode, which includes Banora Point and Tweed Heads South, and increased by 12.9% in three months and a whopping 22% over the past year.

Murwillumbah and the Tweed Valley also saw a sharp increase in rentals over the past year (13%), while the growth was more modest throughout the remainder of the Tweed Coast which all increased by 4.1% over the past year.

Kingscliff/Casuarina have the highest rents in the shire at an average of $810 a week for a

*Chillingham Gauge has moved. New readings do not correlate with historic levels.

There are now three gauges that Bureau of Meteorology flood warnings will predict river heights for, namely: 1. Murwillumbah Gauge (located in front of the Murwillumbah Civic Centre) 2. Barneys Point Gauge (located on the old highway bridge abutment in Chinderah Village), and 3. Tumbulgum Gauge (located at the southern end of the village adjacent to Government Road).

The risks are in the water Who does what The NSW State Emergency Service is the lead agency during floods and storms. NSW SES issues Flood Bulletins, Evacuation Warnings and Evacuation Orders. Flood Bulletins advise you of what is expected, the local consequences and how to prepare. An Evacuation Warning tells you to prepare to evacuate and an Evacuation Order tells you when and where to go. For more information go to www.ses.nsw.gov.au The Bureau of Meteorology (BoM) is the official weather watcher and forecaster. It issues Severe Thunderstorm Warnings, Severe Weather Warnings, Flood Watches and Flood Warnings. Visit www.bom.gov.au ABC Radio is the official emergency channel. Tune to ABC North Coast 94.5 FM or ABC Gold Coast 91.7 FM. Council is responsible for closing local roads (not the Pacific Highway) when they are deemed unsafe or when directed by the Police or SES. Council also updates MyRoadInfo, which is the source of truth for road closures and road hazards in the Northern Rivers (but remember there can be a lag in reporting road hazards and closures due to the difficulty of getting information when roads into the Tweed’s valleys can be cut early by both floodwaters and landslips).

This is a road closed ‘sign’ Levee system Tweed Shire Council owns and maintains the Tweed’s flood levee system.

Residents should know levees do not protect against all floods. If a big enough flood occurs, any levee can be overtopped. Also, while levees are designed to keep river water out, during a flood they keep local rainwater in and act like a dam as the drainage outlets to the river are closed.

After the 2017 March flood when many residents were caught out by just how quickly the flood unfolded, NSW SES proposed setting up a new volunteering opportunity for local residents to become more flood resilient and self-reliant.

Two Community Action Teams (CAT) have now been officially formed in the shire and both have drawn up a set of actions to help their communities prepare and respond to a flood or storm emergency.

Uki residents can contact their CAT group by telephoning Brendan Esposito on 0488 299 971.

Tumbulgum residents can contact their CAT group by telephoning Sandy Copley on 0403 375 400.

Several other communities are in the process of setting up their own CAT. For more information, please call the SES’s Janet Pettit on 0407 261 359.

What’s your flood trigger?

Different communities will have different flood triggers. Even different people in the same community will have different flood triggers depending on their age, mobility, health, whether they have young children or a reliable vehicle and other factors.

Remember, every flood is different so you cannot rely solely on past experience.

To identify your flood triggers, check out the examples below to see if they might be relevant to your situation.
