Members of the Tweed Heads and Gold Coast South Sea Islander Association say they want the walls to remain

South Sea Islanders say no to relocating walls The group has also written to NSW Premier Gladys Berejiklian, appealing for her to help spare the walls and instead redesign parts of the hospital and hospital car park to retain the walls in their current location and form.

The meeting attracted about 40 residents, who said they understood the walls needed to make way for the hospital but were opposed to relocating them.

The group have instead requested the walls be preserved by constructing the hospital around the walls, especially in areas such as the car park.

Several residents also raised concerns that the walls are “already being prepared for removal and relocation” at the hospital site.

The Weekly put several questions to Health Infrastructure who said the drystone walls on the Tweed Valley Hospital site remain “fenced off and outside of the construction area while the consultation process continues”.

“The project team is working with the community to ensure that the local history and the dry-stone walls are able to be enjoyed by current and future generations,” a spokesperson for Health Infrastructure said.

Health Infrastructure said the Tweed Valley Hospital site has five dry-stone walls in various conditions that are a combined length of approximately 750 metres.

“Over 80 per cent of the length of the walls can be retained in their current location,” the spokesperson said.

“Walls 3 and 4 are positioned within the construction footprint of the planned hospital infrastructure and will need to be catalogued and relocated by the end of August 2019 to ensure the hospital is completed by the end of 2022.

“While in the short to medium term the current location of Wall 4 will become a car park, located to provide patients with easy access to critical health services such as renal dialysis and cancer treatment, in the long term this will be the location of additional hospital buildings to meet the health demands of the community as the region grows.

“A variety of options and opportunities are available for the walls requiring relocation and for preserving the history associated with walls as part of the overall Arts and Cultural Strategy for the project.”

Health Infrastructure highlighted that information regarding the five dry-stone walls was included in a comprehensive Environmental Impact Statement (EIS) for the Stage 1 State Significant Development application.

“The EIS was placed on extended public exhibition in November/ December 2018 and subsequent response to submissions process that ran through until May 2019,” a spokesperson for Health Infrastructure said.

“All of this information is available on the NSW Department of Planning and Environment website at: www. planningportal.nsw.gov.au/majorprojects/project/10756.”

Health Infrastructure’s spokesperson said the team looks forward to ongoing consultation with the whole community on all aspects of the Tweed Valley Hospital project.

YOUR THOUGHTS: Do you believe a compromise needs to be reached on the two stone walls at the new Tweed Valley Hospital site? Or should the walls remain where they are today? Send your thoughts and letters to editor@theweekly.net.au

By Jonathon Howard NEGOTIATIONS AROUND the dismantling and relocating of two historic dry-stone walls on the Tweed Valley Hospital site at Cudgen have reached a stalemate, with members of the local South Sea Islander community calling for the walls to remain during a membership meeting at Tweed Heads on Saturday, July 27.

However, the countdown is now on for the two walls to be relocated by the end of August to make way for the hospital’s looming completion deadline of 2022.

South Sea Islander farmers constructed the Cudgen stone walls more than 145 years ago in order to retain water and prevent farmland from eroding.

The removal of the rock walls was included in the initial plans for the hospital with one wall to make way for a public car park (wall 4) and the other situated near the hospital’s building footprint (wall 3).

The walls are not heritage listed and while Health Infrastructure was not required to consult the community over the walls being relocated, they decided the best course of action was to inform the local South Sea Islander community.

The walls have a significant meaning for many South Sea Islander descendants who fear the walls could not be relocated due to their sensitive structure, as well as the possibility of human remains being buried underneath.

The group said they wanted to request ground penetrating radar around the walls before works begin.

The group told The Weekly they are collectively “opposed” to the removal or relocation of the walls and said they intend to work towards preserving them.

Light pollution is a big issue

Light pollution is making it hard for astronomers to study the night sky. It makes it hard to simply see any stars at night.

In Europe 80 per cent of the night is not natural light.

If we don’t want this to happen to our country we need to act fast.

About one third of the world now can’t see the Milky Way, the closest and brightest galaxy to our planet.

It doesn’t just affect space it also affects wildlife.

Between 300 million and one billion birds die to light pollution.

This is because the birds are put off their migration pathways because they are attracted to the light.

It also makes it harder for us to sleep as we need darkness for our bodies to effectively release hormones necessary for sleep.

There’s a few simple ways we can stop it.

Turn off lights when they are not needed, use shielded lights instead of open lights so stray light doesn’t shine into the sky and use environmently-friendly lights like LED lights.

It is amazing how much little things help enormously.

A note from the Isle of Man on recent dog attack reports

I was rather disgusted to read in The Weekly (July 25) of the recent attacks by three large dogs on people’s livestock.

I write to you from the Isle of Man where it is right for any farmer who finds dogs attacking his sheep or lambs to shoot the attacking dogs.

The injuries these dogs inflict on innocent animals is horrendous and if they are not killed outright by the dogs, it usually means that they have to be destroyed.

This causes upset within our farming community and of course loss eventually of the farmer’s income.

Climate science is uncertain

Regarding climate change, Greg Reid (TVW, 4 July) says that “agricultural production will fall because of heat stress in crops . . . [and] increasing severity of droughts” but wheat production globally and food-grain production in India reached record levels in 2016, the hottest year on record.

Plants tolerate both heat and drought better under higher levels of carbon dioxide, an essential plant food.

Besides, the Scientific Report of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) states: “There is low confidence in attributing changes in drought over global land areas since the mid-20th century to human influence”.

On the same page 871, it states that the long-term temperature response to doubling the atmospheric carbon dioxide level, termed equilibrium climate sensitivity, is “likely to be between 1.5°C and 4.5°C” – real climate science is that uncertain!

Cities can be over ten degrees hotter than the surrounding countryside due to the urban heat island effect, most evident in both summer maximums and winter minimums.

Greenhouse warming, however, is most evident at night in winter and therefore at high latitudes, which is why Greg said it increases “with distance from the equator”.

It should therefore be maximal at the poles, but recordings at the South Pole since 1957 show no increase at all. Many uncertainties remain.

Greg thinks “nuclear energy . . . is too slow to build, horrendously expensive and too ponderous for our energy market” (TVW, 26 July).

The modular Westinghouse AP1000 can be built in three years, compete economically with unsubsidised renewables and ramp up from 25 to 100 percent output in less than 30 minutes. Try asking that of a wind turbine!

But Greg is right about the need for urgent action – before the Liddell power plant closes in 2022, lest we have state-wide blackouts like South Australia.

Dr D Weston Allen, Cudgen

Take us back to horse-drawn

Thank you for the recent Letter to the Editor (July 25), pointing out that rooftop solar power is more dangerous than nuclear because people fall off roofs installing it.

On that basis we should, at once, revert to horse-drawn transport where accidents are rarely fatal and the emissions make good fertiliser.

Cane burning concerns

On Saturday morning, I arose to find my deck, my roof and all the surfaces on my property carpeted in cane smuts. So, sometime during the previous night sugar cane plots were burnt – leading to this detritus all over Nunderi – Garden Avenue side.

No cane paddock near my house was torched, so it begs the question, how far away was the field or fields being torched and why do we continue to get this inundation?

It took me some hours to sweep, hose then dry my big back deck – thanks to this conflagration.

I understand that in Queensland – not very far away – that sugar cane is green harvested. I fail to understand why the growers in Northern NSW can’t green harvest too.

The practice of burning the sugar cane trash – and creating a huge pollution issue for the area - seems to be a fairly archaic practice, and one that creates major pollution for the whole area.

In 2019 why can’t we do better than this?

Gayle Russell, Nunderi

“Housing ends homelessness”, says Vinnies in lead up to National Homelessness Week

Australia has long been regarded as the “lucky country” where everyone strives to realise the dream of owning a home.

Yet for a growing number of people, finding and maintaining a safe place to live is a nightmare.

On any given night 116,000 Australians experience homelessness in its many forms – sleeping in cars, couch surfing, crisis accommodation, roughing it on the street.

A third of those – well over 37,000 people – live in NSW, with that figure rising by 37 per cent between the last two Census dates.

August 4 to 10 marks National Homelessness Week, an annual opportunity to shine a light on the need for all levels of government to work together towards ensuring every Australian has a home.

The NSW Government has pledged to increase social housing, but we need many tens of thousands more affordable homes to be built in order to meet demand. There are currently 60,000 applicants waiting for social housing in NSW, and some have been waiting for many years.

At Vinnies, we’re calling on the NSW Government to commit to more social housing. You can help by joining that call.

On a local level, the Vinnies Community Sleepout to support Fred’s Place homeless drop-in service is taking place on the night of Thursday, August 29, at Seagulls Club, Tweed Heads West, in an effort to raise funds and awareness

for those doing it tough in our backyard.

The money raised will go towards enabling this wonderful service to continue providing bathroom and laundry facilities, meals and much more.

I wo u l d u rg e a l l l o c a l s t o help make a difference during Homelessness Week and beyond by signing up or donating to our Community Sleepout at https:// www.communitysleepout.org.au/ fredsplace-tweedheads Michael Timbrell, Executive Officer, St Vincent de Paul Society, North Coast

Splendour drove me bonkers

As a close neighbour of the Splendour in the Grass festival, residing at Wooyung Road, I can only say that the traffic hazards have been worse this year than ever.

Before the festival and for at least two months we had a building site, where Parklands cut a new emergency exit through the bank.

This meant 40 km/hr restriction zones and lollipop men ongoing.

This cut, by the way, increases the noise pollution from festivals drastically for the people who live around there.

More than one week before the festival, traffic controllers started to build barricades for crowd-control near the festival site, which meant more 40 km/hr zones and lollipop men.

Then from Wednesday onwards until Monday, Brunswick Valley Way was highjacked for Splendour purposes all the way from the Brunswick Heads roundabout up to Mooball and halfway down Wooyung Road.

How come Splendour is allowed to take over so much of the public road system and can use it to their absolute advantage, while people who live in this area, who need to get to work by a certain time and pay rates, are totally disregarded?

From Thursday onwards we had three exits with lollipop men to navigate on the way to the Yelgun highway entrance. The traffic to and from the festival was given absolute priority.

How come Parklands can send about 50,000 people along small country roads that are not made for it? This area does not have the infrastructure to support all of this.

I think Parklands would have to pay for a double lane road from the Yelgun exit to their venue and create a drop-off and turn-around area, just like they do at airports, on their private land.

It is up to Byron and Tweed Shire Councils to demand that Parklands, take responsibility for the traffic they create.

This area is not just a commodity that Parklands can leverage off.

Gisela Stieglitz, Wooyung

Murwillumbah shopfront concerns need addressing

Last month I attended a meeting f a c i l i t at e d by Tw e e d S h i r e Council regarding business in Murwillumbah. There were about 30 local business people and residents, seated comfortably at M|Arts and catered with posh drinks and nibbles.

A common theme running through the speeches was how it was never a better time to be in business in Murwillumbah and tourism is up.

Really? Any local or tourist crossing the bridge into Murwillumbah would surely see that approximately a quarter (or more) of the shopfronts around town are empty.

Of these empty shopfronts, a good number have closed this year alone.

Several of these businesses have been long-term, almost institutional.

Some of the seemingly integral businesses that remain are for sale.

Dear Council, please direct your efforts to engage the actual businesses and services here and talk it out for real.

Don’t just gloss over like the direction your industry development branch seems to be heading, patting backs and sending survey monkey forms to a select few, ticking boxes.

Please invite Centrelink, NDIS agencies, Coles, banks and insurance agencies, retailers, hoteliers, food businesses and this local newspaper.

It will be hard work herding everything but you can and must do it.

1. Decide what Murwillumbah CBD should be famous for. The most ‘country’ town closest to an international airport in Australia?

Or central showcase of the valley open to tourists at weekends?

2. How do we get there? Please put a levy on landlords with empty shopfronts to either get low-rent craft artisan businesses in those vacant shopfronts (even if they are closed on weekends, tourists can buy online), or pay for new trees and gardens that improve the streetscape for everyone.

There are a lot of children growing up here that need something to be proud of.

Erosion reaches record levels as locals question “when will it stop?”

“I’m not sure if the NSW government is looking after our interests. They are too far away.”

Minutes from recent Tweed Sand Bypassing Advisory Committee meetings rarely mention central Letitia, though there is regular mention of erosion and replenishment of sand at Fingal Head.

“I’d noticed a fair bit of anger towards the pumping jetty with people feeling unempowered to do anything about it,” Mr Budd said.

“At first I thought there was no way the pumping jetty could be causing these problems, but I remember from my childhood that the beach has completely changed shape.

“It really started to worry me when halfway between the headland and the pumping jetty at the Tweed River became so eroded and hasn’t come back. It just gets worse.

“I think about 100 to 200 metres of that central part of Letitia Spit/ Fingal Beach has been eroded away.”

Mr Budd said that the protective dune structure behind the beach is gone.

“We are regularly seeing mature trees that are 40 or 50 years old like banksias falling into the ocean,” Mr Budd said.

“Where will it stop? I guess it might end up with an island if we’re not careful.

“There are lots of reports they have from consultants that say sand pumping is having an effect on Letitia Spit.”

Mr Budd said the managers of the sand bypass project recently called a meeting with the Fingal Head community.

Trees down in central Letitia Spit have sparked increasing concerns from locals

“It was at short notice at 5pm on a Thursday at the surf club. A lot of people couldn’t get there at that time,” he said.

“It was the first time they have met with the community so we didn’t have anyone from Council there.

“They told us they want to start dredging the river mouth, about 150,000 cubic metres, most of which will go to Tugun and Snapper.

“They also want to drop a relatively small amount, 30,000 cubic metres in areas from Dreamtime Beach to the river mouth but they still need approval.

“We are concerned that their past history of monitoring what’s happening is poor. If they don’t have adequate monitoring it could be dangerous.”

A graph on the impact of the operation on Fingal from project consultants BMT WBM on the long-term sand delivery rates show 1.6 million cubic meters of sand had been taken by the sand pumping jetty from central Letitia Spit by

2017 with no figures for the past two years.

Around one million cubic metres have gone from the north of Letitia Spit and around half a million cubic metres have been taken from Fingal Head.

Fingal resident Vilia Hendry said around 150 to 200 metres of foreshore has “just fallen into the ocean” since the sand pumping jetty started operating.

“That’s the established, treed foreshore and that’s from their figures. That’s from 2017 and so much more has gone since then,” she said.

“People argue that Letitia Spit never had that much sand and that the rock wall helped build up the beach, but the Gold Coast never was what it is now either.

“It’s not a good argument because it’s saying it doesn’t matter if we lose all that land. That’s what the Tweed Bypass people said.

“They are over pumping and using that as an excuse to keep doing it.

“They are contracted to do a certain amount and they just keep pumping it whether the Gold Coast Council wants it or not. Coolangatta and Kirra have got way too much sand at times.”

Ms Hendry said there was no oversight of the project’s affect at Fingal.

“Nobody looks at the beach.

Visitors from everywhere see it and talks about it but nothing gets done,” she said.

“That’s the sand dunes that protect the land where the church is and there are a lot of houses and I have a block of land down there.

“A lot of it is indigenous land and millions of dollars’ worth of land there has been lost to the ocean since the project began but nothing has been done about it.”

The Weekly contacted the NSW Department of Planning, Industry and Environment and Tweed Sand Bypassing for comment but did not receive a response before print.

By Jo Kennett FINGAL HEAD locals are concerned that so much sand has been pumped from Letitia Spit for the Tweed Sand Bypassing project the three-kilometre-long beach barrier could be divided into two sections in the future.

Robert Budd, whose family have lived in the area for generations, said central Letitia Spit between Fingal Heads and the Tweed River has lost about 1.6 million cubic metres of sand.

“That’s according to their own studies,” Mr Budd, a retired engineer, told The Weekly.

“I think they are pumping too much sand; they are entitled to pump the amount of sand that naturally drifts up the coast, but I think they are pumping more than that.

“The environmental impact study says the erosion at central Letitia shouldn’t be happening; it doesn’t look at all like the normal ebb and flow.

“It has levelled off, but I think that’s because they have hit rock, there is no more sand to erode.”

Tweed Sand Bypassing is a joint initiative of the NSW and Qld state governments, but Mr Budd said there hasn’t been enough monitoring of Letitia Spit.

“It’s straddling the border, so NSW does the work, and Qld checks on it,” he said.

“The Advisory Committee meetings are chaired by the Qld Government and Gold Coast Council has representatives there.

THE LEGAL LIGHT! Two seriously injured after head-on crash at Dum Dum Shocking level of work-related fatalities revealed A shocking level of fatalities in work-related accidents has been revealed in new figures released by Safe Work Australia.

In total, 3,414 workers were killed in work-related incidents between 2003 and 2016. Safe Work Australia said that the work-related death rate was heading down, but in 2016 there were still 182 worker fatalities.

Half of the work-related deaths occurred in the transport, postal, warehousing, agriculture, forestry and fishing industries. Vehicle accidents led the death toll, followed by falls from a height, being hit by moving or falling objects, electrification and drowning.

Personal injury lawyer Justin Stack, Managing Director of Stacks Law Firm, said the shocking death rates are just the tip of the iceberg.

“On top of these shocking figures, the level of nonfatal work-related injuries is also tragic. We meet a lot of people who are injured while doing their job, and the impact on their lives and those of their families is horrendous.

“We use our legal knowledge and experience to help, but changes in legislation have made it challenging to get injured workers adequate compensation to rebuild their lives.”

Firms which fail to provide proper protection for employees in the workplace face a maximum penalty of $1.5 million under the Work Health and Safety Act, but all too often the penalty falls short.

Earlier in July, Truslan Constructions was fined just $450,000 in the NSW District Court following the death of a worker, who fell three metres from scaffolding lacking handrails at a construction site in Ryde, in Sydney.

The court heard the company had been alerted to the safety risk just 11 days earlier by a visiting union official, but took no action.

Judge Wendy Strathdee said the risk was foreseeable and the company had ignored warnings, but reduced the fine by 25 per cent from $600,000 because the firm pleaded guilty.

Mr Stack said it was vital employers conduct workplace safety audits, identify the risks and make safety improvements. Failure to do that can result in serious injuries that are costly both in court imposed penalties, and in compensation to the injured worker.

Injured workers who dispute the amount of money they receive while off work through the NSW workers compensation scheme can seek free legal assistance through the Workers Compensation Independent Review Office (WIRO) from approved lawyers, such as Stacks Law Firm, to challenge insurers’ decisions on the amount of compensation awarded.

By Jo Kennett POLICE ARE looking for witnesses to a two-car accident south west of Murwillumbah on Wednesday July 24, which saw two people hospitalised with serious injuries.

Emergency services were called to Kyogle Road at Dum Dum, following reports a Subaru Impreza sedan and a VW Golf sedan had crashed around 5.30pm.

Tweed Police said the driver of the Golf, a 23-year-old Burleigh Heads man, suffered serious leg injuries and was flown to the Gold Coast University Hospital in a stable condition.

The driver of the Subaru, a 77-year-old Uki woman, suffered internal injuries and was taken by ambulance to the Gold Coast University Hospital in a stable condition.

Tweed District Rescue Squad President Drew Carr said his squad was activated to reports people were trapped inside their vehicles at the scene, about one kilometre from the Mt Warning Road turn-off.

“It was just on dark, but we have a whole lot of new lighting that we use fixed scene lighting that we use on our main rescue vehicle which we just have to turn on and focus so it is much quicker to get set up,” Mr Carr said.

“There were a lot of emergency services on the scene.”

Mr Carr said both drivers were trapped in their vehicles.

“There were single occupants of both vehicles,” he said.

The scene of a serious accident at Dum Dum last week

“The man was trapped by confinement which means he could move around, but the doors were jammed “The female driver of the other vehicle was trapped by compression which means they are physically stuck.

“It took about 30 minutes to get the two out. The occupants were both conscious, but the male patient was sedated. He was airlifted to hospital.

“They have collided head-on across the driver’s side around the driver’s side headlights.

“The road was closed for the crash investigation which is ongoing.”

Mr Carr said Tweed-Byron Police District, Traffic and Highway Patrol Command , Fire & Rescue NSW

Murwillumbah, NSW Ambulance, Murwillumbah Rural Fire Brigade and Westpac Life Saver Rescue Helicopter all attended the accident with the Tweed District Rescue Squad VRA. Tweed Police said a crime scene had been established and officers from the Crash Investigation Unit had commenced an investigation into the circumstances surrounding the incident.

Investigators are appealing for any witnesses or anyone with dashcam footage of the crash to come forward.

Anyone with information about this incident is urged to contact Crime Stoppers: 1800 333 000 or https://nsw. crimestoppers.com.au. Information is treated in strict confidence.

to the driveway, whilst continuing his behaviour,” police said.

“The victim wanted to talk sense into the accused and upon reaching the driveway the accused kicked the victim to the stomach, causing him to fall to the ground in pain, causing an abrasion and bleeding on his right knee.

“The victim’s wife a 70-year-old lady observed the melee, running towards the accused in defence of her husband.”

Police said the 25-year-old man allegedly swung his arm out and kicked the elderly woman causing her to violently fall onto the concrete driveway.

The fall caused her to receive several abrasions and bleeding to the face and

hand, including a large amount of swelling to her temple.

“The male victim observing the assault on his wife, went to her aid, fending the accused away from further attack,” police said.

“During this time several other residents come to the aid of the victims, who were still on the ground in pain.”

Police attended the scene and arrested the 25-year-old male.

Police said the man was charged with assault occasioning actual bodily harm and was scheduled to front Tweed Heads Local Court on Friday, July 26.

The female victim was transported to hospital for treatment.

Man bashes two elderly residents at Kingscliff

By Jonathon Howard A VIOLENT attack on two elderly residents at Kingscliff on Thursday, July 25, has resulted in a 25-year-old being arrested.

Police said it was about 4:30pm when a male was heard screaming profanities from the driveway of a residential unit block at Kingscliff.

Sleep Awareness - Snoring treatment this Snoregust TM

Are you getting enough?

Struggling to get to sleep, and back to sleep are common issues.

If you encounter these occasionally, they are generally not a problem. If they happen often and become chronic, however, they can destroy your quality of life – and in a worst-case scenario could even become life threatening.

Sleeping between 6.5 to 7.5 hours a night is recommended for most adults. New research has found that people sleeping fewer than 6 hours a night are 11 per cent more likely to develop, or even die, from heart disease or stroke.

Like any other condition that affects your health, seeking help with sleep disorders should start with your doctor.

The SleepGP is a Coolangatta based primary care clinic that specialises in caring for people with sleep issues.

Your usual GP can organise a referral for you, or you can contact the clinic direct on (07) 5536 8834.

Your SleepGP will gather a comprehensive understanding of your lifestyle as it relates to your sleep, and an understanding of your general health and any medications you may already be on. They will arrange for a simple at-home sleep study to really understand your actual sleep patterns, and then The SleepGP will examine your upper airway and diagnose your individual condition if you have one.

You may be one of the 80% of people who suffer from sleep apnea and don’t know they do.

If you are, the first thing to be mindful of is that there are a range of questionable devices and supplements on

Struggling to get to sleep, and back to sleep, are common issues but help is available at the SleepGP Coolangatta

the market, claiming to stop snoring and addressing sleep apnea. Most of these are ‘snake oil’ remedies, and a waste of money. Stay away from online sleep sites, pharmacies or sleep shops who do not know your full medical history and who therefore cannot possibly give you the holistic advice and individualised treatment you need.

You can trust the SleepGP at Coolangatta to create a clinically-based treatment plan based on your individual situation. That plan will focus on which of the three main solutions for sleep apnea is perfect for you: • CPAP / APAP devices • Non CPAP devices, eg jaw splints and positioning devices • Surgery (in a small percentage of cases).

Many people suffering from sleep apnea often carry a few extra kilos. Considering dietary changes can also be helpful in those cases. For helpful tips on things that can help you sleep better, visit: https://thesleepgp.com.au/department/sleep-hygiene/ Your SleepGP at Coolangatta will also be able to identify if your problems with snoring or not sleeping well are

related to another sleep disorder. If they are, The SleepGP will arrange a referral to a Sleep Physician, or Ear Nose and Throat Surgeon - all accessible under the one roof at 5/3 McLean Street, Coolangatta.

There is no doubt that your usual GP is the best person to help you with ongoing management of your sleep. Backed by The Coolangatta SleepGP’s detailed diagnostic investigation and treatment plan and The Sleep GP’s specially trained and equipped team, your usual GP can make sure you get the ongoing support and advice on lifestyle and diet, and your chosen therapy.

This coordinated Model of Care is designed to help you SLEEP WELL, AND WAKE WELL!

Tweed Link A Tweed Shire Council publication

(02) 6670 2400 or 1300 292 872 | Issue 1114 | 30 July 2019 | ISSN 1327–8630

Tweed Shire Council wishes to recognise the generations of the local Aboriginal people of the Bundjalung Nation who have lived in and derived their physical and spiritual needs from the forests, rivers, lakes and streams of this beautiful valley over many thousands of years as the traditional owners and custodians of these lands.

In brief ...

Remember library parking changes Construction has now started on the Tweed Heads Civic Centre upgrade so there is no access to the front door or the book returns chute of the Tweed Heads library.

If you are going to the Tweed library, take the second driveway on Brett Street to access car parking close to the back entrance of the library. It’s closer to the library than the previous parking area.

Removing private memorials As previously notified, the Memorials (Private) in Public Parks and Natural Areas Policy was on exhibition in 2018 and four submissions were received.

Council adopted this policy in November 2018 and as per the policy, Council will remove existing, unapproved memorials at Fingal Head in September.

If people who have installed memorials in public areas wish to remove them prior to Council doing so, they should arrange this over the next month. Any memorials that are removed will be held at Council for a period of time.

To view the policy visit www.tweed.nsw.gov.au/Policies

Moving on Casuarina path repairs Council has been working to repair a number of concrete sections along the Salt to Casuarina shared-user path this month, near the new lighting.

About 30 sections of broken, rough or uneven concrete are being dug up and replaced. Cathedral Court to Kamala Crescent has been completed, with Kamala Crescent to Dryandas Court to be completed in the next few weeks.

The path is remaining open during the work, however pedestrians and cyclists will have to walk around the work zones, which will be behind barriers.

Discover living heritage This resilient bunch thrived despite the rain at this year’s Tweed Schools’ Environmental Leadership Program.

Our environmental leaders of the future Eighteen remarkable students from high schools throughout the Tweed recently took part in the Tweed Schools’ Environmental Leadership Program.

The program involved a three-day wilderness experience in and around Clarrie Hall Dam with Outward Bound Australia, who have a base at nearby Kunghur.

Through canoeing, hiking, camping and group activities, the students demonstrated exceptional teamwork, problem solving, communication and determination.

Council’s Senior Program Leader – Biodiversity Scott Hetherington was inspired by their resilience, including their composure and positive attitudes after hiking many kilometres through the rain carrying full backpacks.

“The students responded to any and every challenge in really positive and collaborative ways. They worked really well together and tackled challenging tasks and activities with confidence and maturity well beyond their years,” Mr Hetherington said.

“It is so encouraging to know that this group of young people are out there and making a positive difference for all of our benefit,” he said.

On the final day, the students had a sustainability leadership workshop where they explored leadership styles, how to change behaviour and implement environmental projects.

This was the second year this initiative funded by Council was held and the program will continue again next year.

Hazard reduction burn

Temporary tip shop closure

Council and the NSW Rural Fire Service have been working together to plan a hazard reduction burn in Pottsville Environment Park.

The Pottsville Environment Park will be closed on Sunday 4 August from 6am, subject to favourable weather conditions.

Signs will be placed at the park to notify of the closure and Council will manage the park’s access points on the day of the burn.

The planned burn will reduce the likelihood of wildfire, protect park assets and wildlife habitat, and reduce the potential threat to nearby residential areas.

Planning the burn has involved a detailed assessment of potential environmental impacts, in particular the resident koala population.

Burning under controlled conditions in the cooler months will help to ensure it does not impact koalas or their habitat. There are a range of other actions such as pre-burn surveys and raking away the fuel around habitat trees that will also be done to reduce the risk to koalas and other wildlife.

Council’s Senior Program Leader for Biodiversity, Scott Hetherington, said that low intensity fire is an essential part of looking after our local plants and wildlife.

“Many species, including koalas, would not occur at the park without fire as the gum trees that koalas depend upon rely on fire to create favourable conditions to grow,” Mr Hetherington said.

“Burning smaller sections of the park at a time allows wildlife to move into adjoining areas while still reducing the likelihood of an unplanned fire spreading throughout the park,” he said.

The Stotts Creek Resource Recovery Centre ‘Tip Shop’ will be closed for at least the next six weeks while renovations are carried out to provide an improved service focusing on less to landfill.

Earlier this month, Council resolved to take over operations of the facility to better manage the site during major upgrades to infrastructure and roads at the site over the next few years as part of the Stotts Creek Resource Recovery Master Plan.

Council’s Director Sustainable Communities and Environment Tracey Stinson said the upgraded tip shop would have a greater focus on building awareness and giving people more opportunities for ‘less to landfill’.

“Within the short term, we want to expand its operations into other ‘less to landfill’ initiatives such as a tool library, repair workshops and art from rubbish,” Ms Stinson said.

“It’s all about ‘less to landfill’ and looking for innovative ways for repairing, upcycling and giving items a longer life.”

“We know customers love the salvaged items available at the shop and we will continue to offer that service when we reopen in approximately six weeks,” she said.

“We will still be collecting items which can be reused, recycled or upcycled from landfill while the tip shop is closed.”

The previous operators, St Vincent de Paul, wished Council well. Visit www.tweed.nsw.gov.au/Newsroom/2596 to read their statement.

Tweed Valley Weekly Locals Supporting Locals

Justine MP concerned as door left open to nuclear

By Jonathon Howard FEDERAL MEMBER for Richmond Justine Elliot has expressed deepening concerns over the possibility of a nuclear power plant being constructed in or near her electorate, after she questioned the Morrison Government in Parliament over their plans for nuclear power during question time.

Mrs Elliot asked Energy Minister Angus Taylor: “does he (Minister for Energy) rule out a nuclear power station being built in Northern NSW or on the Gold Coast?”.

In his response, Mr Taylor said he had an “open mind” on the use of nuclear energy.

His response outraged Mrs Elliot, who has since described any plans as both “dangerous” and “toxic”.

“I totally condemn the Liberals and Nationals’ dangerous plans to push their toxic nuclear power agenda into our region,” she said.

“The fact is, nuclear power is dangerous, toxic and expensive.

“The people of the North Coast deserve to know exactly where the Morrison Government would build nuclear power plants under the intensifying pressure from the Liberals and Nationals for Australia to develop a nuclear power industry.

“Our community on the North Coast has a major objection to nuclear energy and I stand with them in opposing any nuclear power plants in coastal communities like ours on the NSW North Coast.

“Let me make this very clear to Scott Morrison and the Liberals and Nationals – if you pursue any plans for nuclear energy in our region, our community will fight this every day.

“I have a long record of opposition to nuclear power and stand with my local community who have made it clear they don’t want it in our area.”

Mrs Elliot also took issue locally with Tweed Shire Councillor James Owen, who she said has a strong support for nuclear power describing his support as “dangerous” and “risky”.

“Locally, Tweed Shire Liberal Councillor James Owen’s strong support for nuclear power shows how incredibly dangerous and risky he is to our region,” she said.

“I stand with our community in condemning Councillor Owen’s push for toxic nuclear plants on the NSW North Coast.

“It’s well known that James Owen can’t be trusted and doesn’t share our values.”

However, in a statement on his social media page, Cr Owen said he was not in support of nuclear power in Tweed.

“I’m not in favour of nuclear power in Tweed, just as I wouldn’t want to see a coal fired power station in Tweed or dozens of giant wind turbines on Kingscliff beach,” he said.

“However, nationally it is imperative we look into nuclear power as a viable option - I’m in favour of reasoned debates about how to provide the safest, cleanest and cheapest power to keep the cost of living down for ordinary Australians.”

Prime Minister Scott Morrison has said nuclear power is “not not’’ on his agenda and Qld MPs Keith Pitt and James McGrath have called for a parliamentary inquiry into the issue.

Earlier this week, former Nationals leader Barnaby Joyce ramped up the pressure for change by proposing authorities could get around public concerns over the safety of nuclear

energy by giving people free power if they could see a nuclear reactor from their home.

Last month NSW Nationals Leader and Deputy Premier John Barilaro called nuclear power the “solution” to cheaper energy.

This position was recently endorsed and formalised by the NSW Nationals at their annual conference who voted to “support the use of nuclear power in Australia”.

Mrs Elliot said with so many Liberals and Nationals now advocating nuclear energy, “Australians deserve to know what the Government’s plans are”.

“Specifically, it should explain where nuclear power plants might be built, as these facilities need to be sited near large bodies of water,” she said.

Nuclear power plants are illegal in Australia under Section 140A of the Environment Protection Biodiversity Conservation Act which explicitly rules out the development of nuclear installations.

“The pressure is now on Scott Morrison to take real action to end the energy crisis that has emerged under the Liberal National Government,” Mrs Elliot said.

“So far, all the Liberals and Nationals are promising in energy is expensive new coal-fired power stations and now there is growing pressure from the Liberals and Nationals for Australia to pursue even more expensive and dangerous nuclear power.

“I stand committed in my opposition to nuclear power and under my watch the North Coast will never become home to a nuclear power plant.”

YOUR THOUGHTS: Do you believe nuclear power is too risky for Australia?

New Solar Panel Technology Increases Power Efficiency

Curtis Cloake is calling for more access to mental health services in regional areas such as the Northern Rivers

Mental health petition

A CAMPAIGN to increase access to mental health services in regional areas has gained the support of Member for Richmond, Justine Elliot, who spoke on the issue in Parliament on Monday, July 29.

A petition calling for better access to therapy for young people was created by Byron Bay resident Curtis Cloake and has already garnered more than 54,000 signatures.

“My anxiety has stopped me doing a lot of things,” Curtis said.

“I even dropped out of Uni this year as a result of my mental health. I tried medication, but it wasn’t for me.

“Regular sessions with a psychologist are making a huge difference to my mental health. However I am struggling to afford my ongoing psychology appointments.

“I’ve spoken to so many people my age who are also struggling with their mental health and also can’t afford ongoing care. That’s why I am calling for better access to therapy for young Australians.”

Mr Elliot thanked Curtis for his “outstanding petition (now and his work in putting this issue on the national agenda”.

“We desperately need to have more mental health services and support for young people in our regional areas,” Mrs Elliot said.

“I have written directly to the Health Minister, Greg Hunt about this issue and forwarded him Curtis’ petition.

“I have also raised this issue with many of my Labor colleagues including the Shadow Health Minister, Chris Bowen.”

Draft Rural Land Strategy set to be debated this month need the option to accommodate future generations of their families on farm,” the TRSA spokesperson said.

“This then provides the human labour needed for property maintenance, environmental management and rehabilitation (improving the shire’s overall rural and scenic amenity) as well as daily agricultural activities, importantly allowing farmers to age in place.

“The second argument put forward by the Council at the same meeting was that if we allow two dwellings then in the future, we will then have to allow for three, to accommodate the third generation.”

The TRSA spokesperson said it took the young daughter of a mother from Chillingham attending the meeting to point out historically what happens.

“Typically (and sadly) my mum would be dead or needing to live with me in the same house by the time my children would utilise a second dwelling,” she said.

In a later community consultation meeting held at the Burringbar Hall, Mayor Milne reportedly said if we approve SDDs there will be 2,000 extra homes in rural Tweed.

The spokesperson from TRSA said key community stakeholders present including locals from Burringbar were left wondering: “how that was a bad thing? Since the school and bus are needing more students and the local village sports club and economy are looking for more people”.

“There is a view that additional homes needed would be far better integrated and scattered discretely into rural settings than creating more urban sprawl and Gold Coast style development,” the TRSA spokesperson said.

POLICE BEAT

Nothing stolen at Tweed River High

“In their most recent argument against SDD, councillors have raised concern with them being used as Airbnbs in the future.

“Experienced agritourism and farmstay operators have confirmed most of the hysteria around the arguments against Airbnb is misinformed and ill founded, especially in a rural setting.

“Farmstay operators are simply using the internet platform to facilitate their farm stay bookings, using the online booking calendar, payment collection and guest reference check it provides.

“With agritourism being put forward as one of the best options for rural Tweed, anything that makes managing farmstays easier has to be a good thing surely.

“The issues with Airbnb seen on the coast with guests partying and disturbing neighbours don’t apply to the rural setting because nearly all farmstays have the owner living close by.”

The spokesperson from TRSA said they are hoping councillors will listen to their constituents in the call for SDD. “ Re c e n t m e e t i n g s h o s t e d b y representative bodies have called for votes from large numbers of rural landholders present,” the TRSA spokesperson said.

“The support for SDD from these key stakeholders was unanimous.”

TWEED RIVER High School has reported no major damage, nor were any items stolen, following a breakand-enter at the school on Saturday, July 27.

Police said it was about 2:15am when security was conducting regular patrols of the high school at Tweed Heads South.

Security officers told police they noticed four mountain bicycles at the rear of the school grounds next to the boundary fence.

“Police were called and on inspection identified a garage roller door to have been kicked in and damaged,” police said.

“The unknown person/s were able to open the door from the inside allowing access to the dance studio room.

“Once inside the unknown persons have rummaged through the dance studio plastic containers and scattered school dance uniforms around the area.”

Police said further damage was found to a wooden cabinet with glass doors, which had been smashed and the cabinet rummaged through.

“Police are unable at this stage to identify what has been stolen until school resumes on Monday,” police said.

The four bicycles were seized by police and an appeal online was launched for the owners of the bikes to come forward.

“The crime scene to be tested for fingerprints and DNA,” police said.

“If anyone has any information that would assist police with this enquiry, is encouraged to contact Crime Stoppers or Tweed Heads Police.”

A NSW Department of Education spokesman told The Weekly that nothing was stolen from the school and there were no interruptions to classes or school hours.

“As far as we can tell there was some minor damage and mess, but nothing was stolen from the school grounds,” he said.

Man charged with drink driving

A 25-YEAR-OLD man from Kingscliff was nabbed for drink driving at about 1am on Sunday, July 28.

Police said the man was pulled over on Turnock Street for a random breath test.

The male returned a positive reading and a subsequent breath analysis returned a reading of 0.112.

Police said the man was due to front Tweed Heads Local Court at a future date for the offence of Mid Range PCA.

A PUBLIC meeting to discuss secondary detached dwellings (SDD) on rural land and other issues affecting rural landholders under the Draft Rural Land Strategy, is being hosted by the Tweed Rural Sustainability Alliance (TRSA) at the Murwillumbah Services Club on Thursday, August 8, from 7pm.

The newly formed TRSA said “Tweed Shire Council was still not willing to come into line with surrounding shires” and “approve secondary detached dwellings on all rural land titles in the Tweed Shire”.

A spokesperson from the TRSA said “each time Tweed Shire Council finds a new reason not to support SDD, the community have been able to demonstrate their argument is not valid”.

“The council then moves to a new argument,” the TRSA spokesperson said.

“The council advised a community consultation meeting in the Council Chambers at Murwillumbah, that SDD would make future farming unviable.

“An agricultural economist present, as well as those with good commercial understanding, have since pointed out that SDD would actually improve the viability of long-term farming in the Tweed by providing stable non-farm drought proof income or accommodation for multiple generations to assist with farming operations.”

The TRSA spokesperson said SDD removes the older generation’s need to extract capital from the farming operation to acquire a retirement home, move and live off farm as they are forced to do now.

“One of the primary reasons TRSA and other advocates of SDD are lobbying so hard is that rural landholders

Councillor unveils vision for South Murwillumbah

By Jonathon Howard TWEED SHIRE Councillor Pryce Allsop has launched an ambitious plan to revitalise South Murwillumbah, via a Transitional Structure Plan, which he hopes will drive tourism to the southside and support local businesses.

Cr Allsop’s motion is set to be discussed and voted on by councillors during tonight’s Council meeting (Thursday, August 1).

Following the 2017 flood, Tweed Shire Council initiated a land swap agreement with several large-scale industrial operators in the South Murwillumbah Industrial Estate, which Cr Allsop believes could create an opportunity to develop accessible spaces for tourism ventures.

He’s also interested in exploring whether homes could become part of the land swap to future-proof South Murwillumbah from flooding and create tourism accommodation on the southside.

Cr Allsop told The Weekly he’s hopeful the Transitional Structure Plan can breathe new life into South Murwillumbah through the creation of campervan parks as well as leveraging off the rail trail.

Cr Allsop is hoping to get his fellow councillors behind the plan, which he believes will guide the future use and management of South Murwillumbah land.

Cr Allsop outlined the areas of the plan which include Prospero Street, Leven Street, Durrington Street through to Buchanan Street and including the Murwillumbah Railway Station precinct, to the Tweed River.

“And that a procurement process similar to that undertaken for the Smart

Small Sustainable Housing project be undertaken to ascertain the market rate/ value for a suitably qualified consultant to undertake that work in consultation with Council Officers,” Cr Allsop’s motion reads.

Cr Allsop said since the 2017 Tweed flood and the closure of the railway in 2004, there’s a need for a new vision for South Murwillumbah through this transitional plan.

“This is an area that is undergoing a natural transition in its land use and occupation and this is occurring for varying reasons, the more noticeable being the closure of the railway in 2004 and devastating flood impacts in March 2017, which have resulted in abandonment, disuse and the planned relocation of certain businesses,” Cr Allsop’s background notes read.

“In the absence of a clear vision for the future of this area, there is a great risk of decisions being made that will not serve a greater public purpose and that may ultimately lead to or prolong the stagnation of economic vitality in this area, an area that is situated within the gateway to one of the region’s most significant historic towns: Murwillumbah.

“There is a need to work with the local community to establish a vision that reflects the realities facing this area owing to natural occurrences, like flooding, and the past economic drivers that have declined, like the railway, and to look forward and embrace new emerging opportunities that will respect the importance of Murwillumbah and the strong community desire to enhance and better utilise the areas around and supporting the town.”

Cr Allsop highlighted emerging opportunities such as the rail trail, which he noted will breathe new life into the

area and with it the demand for well serviced and planned public spaces, for recreation, parking, events and pop-up commercial and retail uses.

“As land is transitioned away from its current industrial use, as part of the landswap in part, there will be significant opportunity to enhance the public use of these lands for such things as RV (Camper Van) parking, improving business opportunity for existing local businesses, such as the IGA, leveraging off the rail trail, which could be readily extended, and harnessing recreational and tourist use and visitation,” he said.

“This is an important and much needed body of work and should be undertaken in such a way that it can embellish the wider Murwillumbah Locality Plan when it is revisited and commenced.”

Murwillumbah Services Club’s longest continuous members

Murwillumbah Services Club hosts outstanding event MURWILLUMBAH SERVICE Club put on a stellar event for the clubs’ 50-Year Membership Luncheon on Tuesday, July 30.

The luncheon was held to celebrate the club’s 54 members that have been a part of the club for 50 continuous years or more.

“We are also going to continue to acknowledge our 50-year members each year from now on with our next for July 2020.”

Mr Quinn said he remembers when you could get a steak and vege meal for $1.70, back in the day.

“It was a great members event, with outstanding food and company,” Mr Quinn said.

Sponsors from Riverview Hotel and 92.5 Gold FM.

THE MUSTANGS Charity Cup Day in support of Give Me 5 For Kids was huge success with an estimated $10,000 raised for the charity.

Murwillumbah Mustangs President Nigel Lofts said the day was well received by locals from across the Tweed Shire, Gold Coast and Northern Rivers.

“It was great to have the 92.5 Gold FM team behind the event this year, with a busload of Gold Coast crew visiting for the day,” he said.

“I’d like to give a massive thank you to everyone that supported the event, it means a lot to the club.”

Nigel said the raffle alone raised more than $2,000, all from donated items.

“This is such a great cause and it was amazing to see such support from our awesome community,” he said.

“The Mustangs may have gone down to Cudgen, but the real winners on the day was Give Me 5 For Kids, which both sides were in support and made for a great game.”

Nigel said he estimated about 2,000 people filed through the gates to enjoying the warm conditions.

“I’d also like to thank the Colts Junior Rugby League Club who put on a great set of junior games and its president Daniel Gray for another strong year of the Charity Cup,” he said.

“I’d like to give a big mention to some of our sponsors on the day including Courthouse Hotel, O’Brien Plumbing, Onsite Fastenings, Pottsville Tavern, Specialised Chicken, Harding’s Earthmoving, Ladbrokes and Iron Jack.”

This initiative has been made possible by funding from North Coast Primary Health Network

By Jonathon Howard TWEED SHIRE residents wanting to learn more about suicide prevention are encouraged to participate in a free online training course that’s been launched by The Family Centre in Murwillumbah this week.

The Family Centre Project Coordinator and registered Psychologist, Hanna Thomas, said the course is a great opportunity for people who want to understand more about suicide and gain confidence to support others.

“If you’re in a position where you would really like to help someone, who might be in some kind of emotional or social distress, this training can make you feel more confident about how to have a conversation with that person and encourage them to seek appropriate support,”she said.

“Importantly, as a community, I feel this course can help reduce the stigma that is still associated with suicide.”

The Tweed Shire has been selected as one of 23 trial sites for the project, which includes training opportunities and activities to build other protective factors within the community to help reduce the incidence of suicide.

Dr Thomas said every day, eight Australians die by suicide.

“The online suicide prevention training is being offered to interested community members (QPR training) and is rolling out across the Tweed and Byron shires,” she said.

“An important component includes an opportunity for participants to join in a Village Hall Meeting on Monday, August 12, in Murwillumbah to follow up on any questions or concerns they have and will also be given additional information on local help and resources.”

This training opportunity has been made possible by funding from the North Coast Primary Network (NCPHN) and is one of many activities The Family Centre is coordinating as part of The Tweed Byron Suicide Prevention Strategy.

Get involved with Pitch for Change

Live MUSIC

By Jonathon Howard THE COMMITTED team from It Takes a Town are seeking community members who want to make a difference in the lives of children and families in the Tweed Shire.

Their new ‘Pitch for Change’ program offers a series of ten inspiring and practical workshops plus one-on-one mentoring, all leading up to an event where participants will pitch for money and support to turn their idea into reality.

“Many of us see needs in the community and want to contribute but don’t know how to do something about it,” Pitch for Change organiser Marlena Basser said.

“With this program, participants will receive the skills, the support and the resources to make it happen.”

Local Deb Hunt knows the importance of this kind of support.

Twelve months ago, Deb saw the need for early intervention to reduce isolation, anxiety and depression in mums with new babies in the community.

With qualifications in early childhood and a desire to give back, Deb developed her project Support for New Mums.

Sunday 4th August 12-2pm Vocal Adrenaline

Now she trains volunteer mentors and matches them with new parents.

The mentors visit the mums in their home once a week, offering help with the baby, a listening ear and information about community services.

“I wish Pitch for Change had been around when I was starting out,” Deb said.

“It’s hard setting up a project like this on your own.

“A course like that would have helped me with marketing, finding funding and peer support.”

Deb has kindly offered to be a guest speaker to share her experience with participants.

Pitch for Change workshops will commence on Monday, September 2, from 5.30pm to 7.30pm with a break for school holidays.

There is no cost, but you’re asked to commit to the ten workshop sessions and mentoring.

Dental Health

Support the health of your whole body with Gold Coast Holistic Dental Care “We do not perform root canals because they are a source of toxicity.

HOLISTIC DENTISTRY is a progressive new approach to dentistry that considers not only your dental health but your physical and emotional health to achieve optimal health.

“I personally have a niche focus on toxicity and how toxicity from the mouth can affect the general body.”

Gold Coast Holistic Dental Care owner and principal dentist Dr John Sotis said the philosophy behind Holistic Dentistry is to practice dentistry with the “least negative impact on the patient’s general health”.

“You’re not a mouth or a tooth, you are a human being,” Dr Sotis said.

Holistic Dentistry focuses on treating five main causes of ill health including toxins, infections, allergens, poor diet and stress.

“We use the most bio-compatible materials available, we avoid toxic materials, and we don’t use fluoride because studies have shown that it's a neurotoxin,” Dr Sotis said.

The friendly team at Gold Coast Holistic Dental Care are ready to help

the plane of the teeth to be in harmony with the skull and the rest of the body,” Dr Sotis said.

Gold Coast Holistic Dental Care also offers naturopathy, floatation therapy and infrared sauna treatments to compliment their aim of helping patients improve their overall health and wellbeing.

Dr Sotis said Holistic Dentists were the first to recognise the direct link between gum disease and heart disease, which is further confirmed by the medical fraternity.

“We design specific detoxification programs for each patient with the help of our naturopath to remove toxins from the body,” Dr Sotis said.

“At Holistic Dental Care, we regularly remove amalgam fillings, which release mercury 24-hours a day,” he said.

“Our infrared sauna also helps to pump out toxins through the skin.”

“Mercury is toxic to the body and is not safe in anybodys mouth.

Gold Coast Holistic Dental Care has a team of professionals who are highly accomplished in several areas of dentistry.

“So, we remove them in a safe and effective way - using strict protocols to minimise exposure to the patient and also the dental staff.”

“We have a dentist who focuses on orthodontics and they look at straightening teeth from a whole-body perspective. This means, straightening the teeth and aligning

“We have a dentist who looks at tongue and lip ties and how they affect the function of young mouths, which can include speech, breastfeeding and jaw growth problems.”

Support Legacy at special Vietnam film screening Join the Motorcycle

By Jonathon Howard A SPECIAL screening of a new Vietnam War film Danger Close: The Battle of Long Tan is set to screen at Hoyts Cinema Tweed City on Saturday, August 10, at 10am to raise funds for Legacy.

The event is being organised by Vietnam veteran and Far North Coast Legacy Division Chairman, Ian Campbell, who is continuing a long-held promise to support returned soldiers and their families.

When Mr Campbell found himself in the middle of a gun battle between thousands of North Vietnamese Army soldiers in a rubber plantation, during the Battle of Long Tan on August 18, 1966, he made a short prayer and promise that “if God can get me out of this, I will dedicate my life to support community organisations”.

It’s a promise Mr Campbell continues to hold dear to this day, having survived one of the most violent exchanges between the Australian and North Vietnamese Army during the Vietnam War. The battle has reverberated throughout history and is today remembered in conjunction with Vietnam Veterans Day. Mr Campbell remains the chairman of the Murwillumbah Far North Coast Legacy Division and he’s arranging the special screening to bring veterans together on the day.

Mr Campbell said he has partnered with Hoyts Cinema Tweed City to host the special screening and he’s eager to get local veterans and their families to attend and to fundraise for Legacy.

“I’ve already seen a pre-screening of the film and it’s a great depiction, really worth watching,” he said.

Club for a great cause

Murwillumbah local and Vietnam Veteran Ian Campbell. Inset was Ian in Vietnam

“I think this would make a great fundraising initiative and I’d like to encourage local veterans from across the Tweed and surrounds to please attend.”

As a machine gunner, Mr Campbell recounts the events of the Battle of Long Tan with amazing detail in what would have been one of the scariest moments of his young life.

“There’s been a lot written and talked about since the battle, but I can tell you nothing compares to how it felt in that rubber plantation at the time when the North Vietnamese were surrounding our position,” he said.

Mr Campbell said he’s hoping to book out the screening at Hoyts Cinema with up to 130 people able to attend.

Mr Campbell said the film, Danger Close, is an excellent film and most scenes were shot in South East Qld. “Having seen the premiere a few weeks ago has brought back memories of an event which happened 53 years ago,” he said.

Mr Campbell is also asking attendees to please spare what they can for Legacy.

Meanwhile, Vietnam Veterans Day will begin with a wreath laying and flag service at Murwillumbah Services Club from 11.30am before moving into the club for lunch on Sunday, August 18.

To find out more, or to book your place at the screening, please phone Mr Campbell on: 0427 549 292.

THE TWEED Coast American Motorcycle Club will visit the Riverview Hotel in Murwillumbah on Sunday, August 4, for a special fundraising event from 10am, that’s open to the public.

The club is raising funds for Donna Boan, a Murwillumbah local suffering from a rare form of leukemia called Myelofibrosis.

The event is an open ride to anyone who would like to join the group, leaving the Shell Service Station at Chinderah by 8.30am and finishing back at the Riverview Hotel for the fundraising event.

There will be auctions on the day including a Mount Warning River Boat Cruise for up to 50 people for three hours.

The event will also auction a barbecue boat cruise for ten people and a two-person River Boat fully catered.

The motorcycle club will be holding Harley Davison rides for the cost of $20 per ride There will also be face painting for the kids.

All monies raised will be donated to Donna and Kevin Boan along with a donation from Tweed Coast American Motorcycle Club of $2,000 to help continue with Donna’s ongoing medical treatment as she battles a blood disease known as Myelofibrosis.

The club would like to thank their local sponsors which include Mount Warning Tours, Auto One Murwillumbah, JH Williams, Repco Murwillumbah, The Motorcycle Clinic, Auto Barn Tweed Heads, Halls Tyres and Riverview Hotel.

Tweed woman’s plea to register as organ donors

By Jo Kennett A YOUNG Indigenous woman awaiting a kidney transplant has called on the community to talk about registering as organ donors during DonateLifeWeek.

Tweed Heads resident Katrina Rendell spoke to The Weekly while undergoing dialysis at The Tweed Hospital and said she is one of many people on the waiting list for lifechanging organ donations.

“I’ve been on dialysis since 2015 and the kidney transplant waiting list for 12 months,” Ms Rendell said.

“So much changes with ill health, you can’t work so you suddenly have no income.

“We have politicians arguing over whether $250 is enough to live on but it’s not when you are not well.

“Where do you live? All these things have a massive impact.”

Ms Rendell said the loss of connections that she once had also had a huge impact.

“You don’t have the money to do the things that you used to have,” she said.

“I realised how close we all are to falling through the gap if something serious happens to you and it can happen at any time.

“I don’t think we understand how easily our circumstances can change.

I found myself looking at homeless people saying, that could be me next week.”

Ms Rendell said most people don’t know about kidney disease and its impact.

“It’s really overarching and affects everything in your life,” she said.

“After your treatment you are quite exhausted. I work with a dietician to make sure my diet is right and exercise and train on the days I’m not having dialysis; a lot of effort goes into staying healthy.”

Ms Rendell, who has written a book about her life called Ourimbah Road, which will be released soon, said she wanted people to consider registering to become a donor.

“The opportunity to have a complete change of circumstances with a donated organ would be fabulous not just for me but for so many others as well,” she said.

“This is not a way to live; it’s existence and I think it’s really debilitating for people if you are not strong and not focused.

“This is not any way to live your life.”

Director of Organ and Tissue Donation for Northern NSW, Dr Mike Lindley-Jones, said 14,000 people were waiting for organ donations in Australia.

“In the Tweed area we have seven people on the kidney transplant list,” Dr Lindley-Jones said.

“This is life-saving and lifechanging for recipients. We have recipients who can have lungs, kidneys, liver, heart, pancreas donated so any organ donor can change the life of ten individuals.

“We just want people to talk about organ donation, discover the facts and if it’s right for them register and talk about it with friends and encourage friends to think about registering.

“We know Indigenous people are overrepresented on the transplant

Katrina Rendell with donation specialist nurse Mary Campbell

waiting list and that’s partly due to a genetic disposition to renal failure.

The success of their transplantations is higher if they have a transplant from an Indigenous donor.”

The Nurse Unit Manager of Tweed Valley Renal Service, Andrew Gosling, said they have 12 chairs and give 25 patients a day kidney dialysis in two shifts, six days a week.

“We are at 110 or 112 per cent capacity,” Mr Gosling said.

“We’ve had more donations in the last 18 months than we have had since I have started working here so the message is getting out there.”

Donation Specialist Nurse Mary Campbell said increased government funding in 2009 has seen a 105 per cent increase in donations.

“So, we are seeing more donations and helping more recipients,” she said.

“The waiting time varies, it’s often three to five years but with 1,400 people on the transplant waiting list 15 per cent to 20 per cent of those people will die waiting for an organ donation.

“It only takes about one minute to register as a donor online, but it can change so many lives.”

Landowners wanted for Landcare program

By Megan Albany TWEED LANDCARE Inc is looking for landowners wanting to restore native vegetation on their property as part of a program designed to fill biodiversity gaps in the region.

Landcare are hoping to achieve effective vegetation corridors to link the Tweed coastal National Parks through to the Border Ranges and escarpment National Parks.

Stages one and two of the project have already been completed with fifty hectares of high conservation value native vegetation restored across ten private properties. A further 44 hectares are currently being restored across eight private properties.

TLI Landcare Coordinator Amalia Pahlow said the ongoing restoration work relies on the continued participation of private landholders.

“We need properties that have at least five hectares of remnant vegetation, so that can be native vegetation that’s never been cleared or that has regrown.

“In most instances that vegetation will be regrowth and in this case there’s often weeds such as camphor, giant devil figs and lantana that are quite common in the Tweed.

“Quite a few of the landholders we have been working with have had 50 or 100 hectares but we are only working on a relatively small section of their property that has the regrowth.”

Ms Pahlow said that under certain conditions properties that have less than five hectares of regrowth may still be eligible for assistance.

“If the landowner adjoins the national park or has been mapped as part of a landscape corridor then that

A high conservation value wetland in the Border Ranges adjacent to a restoration area

property may be of assistance with this project,” she said.

“We have access to mapping where we can identify whether a property is within a landscape corridor and if they are eligible due to other considerations such as if there are any threatened species on the property.

“We can do a desktop assessment and then possibly a site visit to try to work out how the site could fit into the planned project.”

Landowners whose properties qualify for the bush regeneration program are encouraged to be active in the ongoing management of their land.

“Once we have identified landowners then we would apply for funding and would use that to enage a professional bush regeneration team,” Ms Pahlow said.

“The landowner is expected to be interested and engaged in the project and where practical, at least once a year, they would work alongside the

bush regeneration team to learn about the weeds on their property and how they can control those weeds with the intention being that they do the maintenance once the regeneration is completed.”

Ms Pahlow said she would encourage landholders whose properties are smaller than the required size for this project to contact Tweed Landcare about other smaller scale projects.

“If there are other landowners interested in undertaking planting projects or projects on a smaller scale we are interested in hearing from them as we do also look at other funding opportunities.

“We also have a monthly newsletter and workshops that community members can get knowledge and skill in the area of restoration and weed control.”

“I urge any young local athlete, coach or official to apply for a Local Sporting Champions grant to help cover the costs of participating in their chosen competition,” Mrs Elliot said.

“Local Sporting Champions grants can assist with the costs of travel, accommodation, uniforms or equipment associated with participating in an eligible championship.”

Applications for round 2 of the Local Sporting Champion grant close on September 30 and more information can be found online at: www.sportaus.gov.au/grants_and_ funding/local_sporting_champions “Our community is home to many great sporting champions and these grants are designed to help the next generation realise their sporting dreams,” Mrs Elliot said.

THE TWEED Shire’s freshly formed Murwillumbah Sporting Car Club Inc (MSCC), has set itself a mission to upskill local drivers including young P-Plate drivers to better prepare them for life on the road.

The car club hosted a special open day at Budd Park on Saturday, July 27, to acknowledge the club’s growing sponsorship base and to promote the club’s upcoming Motorkana and Swap Meet at the Murwillumbah Showgrounds on Sunday, August 11.

The club’s program coordinators Rob Learmonth and Boyd Martin said the Murwillumbah Sporting Car Club Inc was established in March 2018 and already has 30 full time members.

“We are an affiliated club with Confederation of Australian Motor Sport (CAMS) which covers member services including insurance for competitors, training for track officials, authorisations and permits for conducting motorsport and related activities,” Mr Learmonth said.

Club president Peter Clarke said the club has set the aim to fostering motorsport amongst its members and to provide opportunities for the upskilling of young drivers including P platers and senior secondary students.

“The majority of members have advanced driver training, experience and mechanical knowledge of all types of vehicles whether on our roads or on the track,” he said.

“We wish to encourage the development of these skills within a younger generation in a safe non-competitive environment.”

Mr Clarke said the high accident rate, injuries and deaths amongst the younger age groups especially in the Tweed Shire, had prompted the move.

“Overall, a high level of our locals are involved in fatalities/ crippling accidents,” he said.

“Our country roads provide a variety of road conditions requiring an advanced level of driving skills especially on narrow hinterland roads, both during the daytime and especially at night, all made even more treacherous by wet conditions and at times unsealed roads.

“Age groups receive little or no further training once they have obtained their licence.”

Mr Clarke said peer pressure to drive fast, party hard and to “show off” can also add to a dangerous mix.

“Many young drivers think they are immortal and that they already have the high levels of driving skills to cope with all driving conditions,” he said.

Octogenarian honoured for dedication to Red Cross

By Megan Albany UKI RED Cross branch member Elspeth Vernon was honoured for a lifetime of service to the humanitarian organisation at the Red Cross Tweed Heads Branch Annual General Meeting on Thursday, July 5, at Banora Point.

The 87-year-old first joined the Red Cross in 1939 in Scotland following the outbreak of the world war in Europe and as a child participated in Red Cross activities such as rolling bandages to help support those affected by war in the United Kingdom.

On immigrating to Australia ten years later, she transferred to the Bankstown Branch in NSW before moving to Burringbar in 1968. She later became an active member of the Murwillumbah branch and then most recently joined the Uki Red Cross.

Ms Vernon was among a number of members who were presented with awards for their service and was presented with the prestigious 70 year Membership Brooch and Parchment and an 80 year Bar to 70 year Parchment.

Ms Vernon said she plans to continue her active participation in the organisation which responds to both national and international crisises.

Members were praised for their fundraising efforts which saw the Tweed Red Cross branch raise over $20,000 in the year 2018 to 2019 which was used to support various causes including drought stricken farmers in the west of the state.

International Red Cross Ambassador at Large, Rob Hanby AO, was the guest speaker at the AGM, and shared his involvement with The International Committee of the Red Cross. Mr Hanby, who specialised in

Poster Paradise set for new site

POSTER PARADISE on Main Street in Murwillumbah is set to change locations after 28 years with owners Sandra and Alan Guthrie deciding it’s time to move.

Sandra said while it had been a great run at the current site, she said it was time for a new location.

“I wanted to let everyone know our new address is shop 4, 58 Wollumbin Street, Jim and Clair’s old Cycle Shop,” she said.

“The new Poster Paradise location will be open Monday, August 12.

“We will continue all our current services and even expanding our offer with the deliveries from Fast Ways.”

Mrs Guthrie said she’s also hoping to establish the new site as a parcel drop off and collection point.

To find out more about Poster Paradise please phone: 0418 961 608 or visit the new site.

Long-serving Red Cross member Elspeth Vernon and Tweed Heads Red Cross President Marie Ivos

water management, sanitation and international emergencies, spoke about being seconded to humanitarian tragedies in Uganda, Rwanda, Iraq, Kosovo and more recently the natural disasters in the Asia Pacific region.

Local members were moved by his presentation, particularly the photos of his work which included the tragedy of the Ebola outbreak in Sierra Leone and the humanitarian suffering of those working for the Red Cross to

help manage the outbreak and set up hospital facilities.

Principal Officers were elected at the meeting with Marie Ivos being named President, Eleanor Gerry, Secretary and Peter Hirons, Treasuer.

The Red Cross Tweed Heads Branch are continuing to call for women and men of all ages seeking to offer their time to the vital organisation.

Love Bites working wonders with students Investing in women

By Jonathon Howard LOVE BITES is a highly successful domestic and family violence, sexual assault and consent awareness education program aimed at school students and is having great success with years 7-9 (Love Bites Junior) and years 10-11 (Love Bites Senior).

Created by the National Association of Child Abuse and Neglect (NAPCAN), the program delivers a series of workshops by trained facilitators.

With recent funding from the 2018 round of ITV’s Tweed Community Initiative Fund of $5,000, Love Bites was delivered by Wollumbin Family Support to more than 150 students at Murwillumbah High School over eight weeks in May and June this year.

The outcomes have been impressive with statistics from the evaluation showing that students rated Love Bites nine out of ten with seventy per cent of participants feeling more confident standing up for and supporting a friend after participating in the program.

Seventy-five per cent of participants also said they felt more confident treating their boyfriend or girlfriend with respect.

“The goal is to bring about generational and cultural change in relation to domestic and family violence,” Love Bites Project Leader Kyra Worden said.

“Love Bites aims to provide a safe environment in which young people can talk about domestic and family violence and what respect looks like in relationships.

“The program challenges gender stereotypes, attitudes, values and social institutions that perpetuate violence, it also introduces young people to local support service providers in an informal environment.

Love Bites coordinator Michelle Perry, ITV Community Liaison Lanie Loughlin, Kyra Worden and Sue Wylie

“The statistics are alarming. In Australia, one woman a week is murdered by her current or former partner and domestic and family violence rates are higher in rural and regional NSW. “Prevention strategies like respectful relationships education are critical to reducing these figures because they can stop violence before it occurs.”

Wollumbin Family Supoport is a social enterprise dedicated to investing in the Murwillumbah community via primary prevention programs such as Love Bites, and their website wollumbinfamilysupport.org.au The website, also developed through support from the 2017 round of the

ITV Tweed Community Initiative Fund, aims to offer prevention, options and recovery from domestic and family violence locally.

For more information about Love Bites, to become a facilitator or to schedule a session at your school, please contact Project Leader Kyra at wollumbinfsi@ gmail.com.

If you or someone you know is experiencing family and domestic violence, or for more information or assistance, please call the national domestic violence number: 1800 RESPECT (1800 737 732).

TWO TWEED Shire organisations striving to make a difference in the lives of women have been awarded NSW Government funding.

Member for Tweed Geoff Provest, Chris Gulaptis and Ben Franklin MLC recently announced Femeconomy and Northern Rivers Women and Children’s Services Inc (NORWACS) as the recipients.

Femeconomy has received the funding to deliver a training program for female business leaders, while NORWACS received funding to run a social enterprise focusing on financial literacy and business skills.

“Women and girls in our community should have every opportunity to thrive,” Mr Provest said.

“This funding will support two remarkable projects that empower women to live their lives, their way.”

Femeconomy Director Alanna Bastin-Byrne said she was “delighted” to be receiving this funding.

“The Femeconomy Connection program is delivered remotely and flexibly and is completely tailored around the needs of the female leader in the business and their competing priorities,” she said.

“Femeconomy’s national network is an enabler to remote and regionally based businesses.”

Minister for Women Bronnie Taylor said projects funded under the program will empower women to take charge of their economic, social and health outcomes.

Projects will support a diverse group of women across the state, including Aboriginal women, women in regional areas, women with disabilities and women from culturally diverse backgrounds.

Hunt drop out on the weekend was one of the most bizarre things I’ve ever seen on a footy field.

Sounds like Justin Holbrook will get the gig at the Titans. I’m a little surprised, however, I think he is a super choice.

Justin did a huge apprenticeship under several top line coaches and clubs before plying his trade with the ladder leading St Helens club in the Super League.

We desperately need a good team on the Gold Coast and hopefully Holbrook is the man to lead the revival. The junior development is on the improve, they just need to get the top end right.

Stephen Kearney probably had the right to blow up as his Warriors were on the end of some doozies going down to the Eels. Manly announced themselves as genuine contenders defeating Melbourne down south in a hugely entertaining game of football.

Canberra have also made it a fair dinkum top 5 with a team that has the strikepower and more importantly the belief to go all the way.

The Dragons and Knights have hit the skids badly while the Broncos have snuck into the top 8 for the first time. The Ben

WHAT A huge weekend of footy.

I’m going to start with the NRRRL and a great spectacle Saturday night at Stan Sercombe with the charity game between Cudgen and Murwillumbah.

The ‘Give me 5 for kids’ charity was selected with the club raising a huge amount of money thanks to the support of everyone involved.

The polo shirts were great, the donations for raffle prizes were top shelf and the one off jerseys that were auctioned at the end of the night was a huge success so congratulations to all involved. Cudgen played their part with a desperate performance that stunned the second placed Mustangs. It was a quality game with Luke Dumas scoring the winning try on the hooter.

A shoutout to Alex Fitzhugh and Tim James of Cudgen who had a nasty head clash with 15 minutes to play. Two great blokes and footballers who will need some recovery time, Alex with a new nose next month. Huge game this week with the Mustangs taking on a rejuvenated Byron Bay at Byron. This game will have a big effect on the make up of the top 5 with two rounds to go.

The NRL is producing plenty of talking points. Ivan wasn’t happy with

Fireworks set to light up Tweed

By Megan Albany ALL FIRED Up Fireworks and Stage Effects pyrotechnician Paul Gianotti said residents are sure to get a bang out of this year’s cracker night at Seagulls Club, Tweed Heads on Saturday August 3.

“This cracker night, the Tweed display will be fired to a selection of songs by Australian artists that the organiser gave us, so we have choroegraphed the programming to make things happen in time with those beats,” said Mr Gianotti.

“In the old days we used to light the fireworks with a match or a lighter or a portfire, which was like a big stick which lasted about six minutes.

“Now everything is computerised down to the tenth of a second.

“We drop in our inventory of firework products and we can see it going off in 3D as we are programming the show.

“The display on Saturday night will go for about seven minutes and then there’ll be a big brocade finale.

“We will also be doing a couple of what we call the Sydney Harbour rack which looks like the Sydney Harbour Bridge.

“There are a lot of different fireworks so when we put them to music it’s a bit like a painter with a blank canvas, it’s all about how we design it and what we do with the fireworks.

“There will also be a couple of flame projectors on the main entrance to the Seagulls Club and they will be firing every three to four minutes til the fireworks finish.”

Get along to Seagulls for the amazing Cracker Night on Saturday, August 3

Mr Gianotti said having grown up in an era when families were setting fire to catherine wheels on their back fences, he enjoys maintaining the tradition of cracker nights.

“I’ve always been interested in how things work and I remember going to fireworks when I was a kid and thinking how do they get up into the sky and what makes them do that?” he said.

“Even though people aren’t lighting their own fireworks, now they still feel part of it and it’s a lot safer.”

M r G i a n o t t i wh o h a s b e e n a pyrotechnician for over 23 years said that the industry is now also a lot safer for the professionals.

“Eighteen years ago we used to handfire everything but now it’s all computerised and each individual item has a fuse head in it that runs back to a firing box

and everything is fired from the main control,” he said.

“There was a lot of adrenaline with hand lighting but it’s a lot safer now that we are not bending over lighting things.

“With hand lighting we were sometimes not even one metre away from the fireworks, whereas now when we are on the ground, we can be 40 or even 50 metres away.

“At Seagulls however, we will only be two metres away from the fireworks as we will be on barges as the display is over the broadwater.”

Apart from the fireworks which will commence at nightfall, the Seagulls Cracker Night will also feature entertainment from 3pm including live music from Follow the Fox, Nickleby the Magician, face painting, jumping castles, farm animals and food stalls.

Entry is by gold coin donation.

The film gives us the opportunity to gaze at the marvelous and mysterious images of things that happened that long ago. While watching the film we become witness to the hours before the launch, the surging cataclysm of the liftoff, the flight into space, the orbiting of the moon, the landing of the lunar module, Neil Armstrong on the moon, Buzz Aldrin on the moon, the re-launch from the moon’s surface, the return flight, the re-entry into the atmosphere and the splashdown – all with a sense of intimacy that no previous documentaries had provided until now.

We see the earth viewed from the point of view of the astronauts — a strange crystal marble that turns into a blobby orb - and the lunar surface, cold and gray like a weird ceramic sculpture. And at every moment, we are privy to the collective anxiety that something could go wrong. Because that was the key of the momentous event: it was completely unprecedented and a huge gamble with destiny.

But why are we still so amazed by the moon landing, considering that it did not serve any purpose other than the historical achievement per se? Humanity built an immense, incredible machine that could cover a huge distance and bring a human to reach the moon for no other purpose that to check it out. Perhaps the essence of that journey was more an existential quest than a scientific one. And that’s why we common viewers are still so fascinated by it

The 50th anniversary of the moon landing this year has given rise to a lot of celebratory events and remembrances, including the feature film First Man that we saw earlier in the year. Now there is a new extraordinary documentary, Apollo 11, which consists of much previously unseen archival footage of the launch and recovery of the Apollo 11 and does not feature any narration or interviews.

the support of international celebrities such as Halle Berry, Justin Bieber and Martin Lawrence who bought up tickets for entire theatres in the lead up to the American premiere with the view to donating the tickets to local non-profit groups.

Ms King said that many of the people funding the film have also chosen to donate their profits.

“This film was unique in that most of those that supported it didn’t want anything in return, the executive producer and the director of the film committed any of their possible earnings to the families of the victims,” she said.

Due to the content of the film, Ms King said the film is recommended for those aged twelve and over.

“I have two teenagers and an eleven-yearold daughter and my daughter has seen some of the trailer but she wants to wait to see it til she’s a little older,” she said.

“Both my boys got to watch it in the States when it was released and I realised that one film can show more than you could ever verbally express to your kids.

“I am so passionate about the message of the film about how we can respond to the worst kind of violence and hate with forgiveness.

“You really can decide even when you are in the worst kind of pain how you are going to react and I want my children to understand that it’s not a sign of weakness to choose alternatives to hatred and violence and racism.”

By Megan Albany AMERICAN WOMAN Sarah King, who has been living in Casuarina for the past year, recently helped to finance the making of Emanuel, a documentary on the Charleston Church shooting.

The film, which tells the untold story of the victims and survivors of the shooting, has not yet been released in Australia but will be screening for free at the Kingscliff Church, 85 Phillip St, Chinderah, on Friday, August 9 at 5.30pm.

Ms King said she gained special permission to screen the film here ahead of its official release as a way of giving back to the local community.

“We’ve been volunteering with the Kingscliff Church and this was our way of contributing to this community before we return to the States next month,” she said.

“The directors and producers are hoping to screen it internationally so it will likely come to Australia at another time and at another level.”

Ms King said she first watched the film at the premiere in Charleston, USA. “I was able to be present at the premiere in Charleston itself and many of the families of the victims were there and it was palpably tender and powerful,” she said.

“It was almost four years to the day since the shooting and it was shown just walking distance away from where it happened.

“I’ve never been to another movie premiere but this one was not about dressing up, it was about noting the remarkable lives that were lost and celebrating the stories of those that survived them and it was very sombering and yet still positive and sacred.”

The documentary’s message of forgiveness in the face of racial hatred also garnered

Experience a gyrocopter at the markets

By Megan Albany AVIATOR JOHN Commerford will fly his Gyrocopter ‘Blackbird’ over the Chillingham Community Market on Sunday, August 11, at 10.30am.

At noon the 63-year-old pilot will land the aircraft so market-goers can view the ultra-light up close and discuss the joys of recreational flying in the Tweed.

Mr Commerford, who started flying his gyrocopter ten years ago, said he will be showing off the versatility of the ultralight.

“I am going to be doing some manouvres to show the capabilities of the gyrocopter,” he said.

“They are often used for mustering because of their extreme manouvreability.”

The pilot said the aircrafts have gained popularity in recent years due to their inexpensive purchase price, low running costs and safety record.

“I always wanted to fly but it was always out of my price range,” he said.

“Gyrocopters can do ninety per cent of what a helicopter can do at ten per cent of the price so they are the poor man’s helicopter.

“The gyrocopter was originally designed to overcome the stall characteristics of an ordinary fixed wing aeroplane and they are a rotary wing aircraft so they are very safe.

“You can’t stall a gyrocopter and they say they are the safest aircraft in the world due to their ability to glide down if the engine fails.”

Having already tested that theory and lived to tell the tale, Mr Commerford said

he is now an even bigger fan of the aircraft that was invented in the 1930s.

“Part of your training is that if you have an engine out then you have to do an out landing where you land outside of the airport so you train to glide down if the engine fails,” he said.

“I used that training when I had an engine fail and glided down in a horse paddock in the Burringbar ranges.”

Despite often being dubbed the motorbikes of the sky, Mr Commerford said that the ultralight is not known for its speed.

“I named my gyrocopter Blackbird because I’ve painted it black and also because the Blackbird is the fastest aircraft in history whereas this is the slowest, so it’s a very ironic name,” he said.

Having developed a taste for flying, the semi-retired landscaper said he now finds it hard to keep his feet on the ground.

“I go up once or twice a week depending on the weather,” he said “Some gyrocopters are fully enclosed but the Blackbird is open frame so I don’t have a cockpit or a windscreen so I have to make sure the weather is fine when I fly.

“I think I love flying so much because it’s one of man’s greatest achievements and Leonardo Da Vinci said that once a man knows how to fly he’ll be forever looking skyward and I am always looking up at the sky and wondering if it’s a good day for flying.”

Travel adventures with Nick Condon to Kolkata Uki Sporting Horse event Come fly with Nick Condon

Nick and Karen high up in the Accursed Mountains of Albania

- still out in full bloom as this was early summer.

As we got closer to the pass and those beautiful snow-capped mountains, we found ourselves trudging through the snow.

From here, the track started to narrow, and it was time to put on some layers as the wind started to howl.

I was really looking forward to the warmth of our local guesthouse and the hospitality we’d been shown by the locals.

At the top of the pass, the clouds had moved in so we weren’t able to see the wonderful view our guide spoke about.

We then made our way down through a pine forest to the beautiful village of Theti.

In Theti, there stands a tower called Kulla e Ngujimit, it’s the only tower left of its kind in the whole country and was used in the blood feuds.

The tower was where a murderer would stay for 15 days while their family and the victim’s family deliberated over how they would reconcile their differences which often included taking the life of someone from the murderer’s family.

We finished off the hike with a traverse along the Valbone valley and onto the most challenging part of all - the Thore Pass - a steep five-hour ascent up 1100m.

June was the perfect time to go as it was still early in the tourist season and visitor numbers were still quite low.

IN JUNE this year, our group travelled to Eastern Europe to hike for a week through the Accursed Mountains and what an experience it was.

The coffee was wonderful but it was not Italy. The mountains were postcard perfect but it wasn’t Switzerland. The baklava was incredible but it wasn’t Turkey. It was Albania, a country where cheese is served with every meal and old Mercedes vans are alive and well.

The local transport arrived to take us to the start of the hike - a bright orange 1985 Mercedes van complete with purple curtains, kitchen lino on the floor and a fold-up plastic stool that got wedged between the second row seat and the door to make up for the fact we were one seat short.

The driver proudly announced he’d had a visit from an executive from Mercedes last year who offered him a free flight to Germany and any car in the showroom in exchange for his van. The driver had refused.

We’d been dropped off at the end of a stony track.

Horses and donkeys had been saddled up with our large bags and had set off after us. Looking at the mountains, I was glad we weren’t carrying our own bags.

The hiking started off reasonably flat with only a gradual incline.

Once we were through the village though, the track really started to become challenging. We found ourselves making our way through lush green fields with an incredible array of wildflowers

THE UKI Sporting Horse Association will hold its annual campdraft this Saturday and Sunday, August 3 and 4, at their 340 Rowlands Creek Road grounds.

This is a great opportunity witness one of Australia’s homegrown sports with skilled riders and talented horses bred to work cattle.

Uki Sporting Horse Association secretary Rachel Trevaskis said the event will also feature a fast-growing event on Sunday afternoon called Arena Sorting.

“Arena Sorting is where teams of three riders draft and sort cattle by number to a smaller pen, it’s exciting and skilful to watch,” she said.

The program begins at 7am on Saturday with the Mumford Brothers Novice Campdraft which will see riders compete for over $3,000 in prizes.

Mrs Trevaskis said competitors will come from across the Northern Rivers and South East Qld to take part, with some of the top riders in the area participating this year.

“The Uki Sporting Horse Association has worked hard to promote Campdrafting, Stockmans Challenge and Sporting events this year and have incorporated this into the program, with kids campdrafting and sporting program including barrel races and challenge events to be held on Saturday afternoon,” she said.

“Sunday will begin at 7.30am with the Maiden Campdraft before the final of the novice and then the Arena Sorting will begin.”

There will be a canteen and bar operating and entertainment on Saturday night. Spectators are welcome to come along and watch over the weekend, entry is free.

For further enquiries please phone the association on: (02) 6679 4222 during the weekend.

The Cane Stork

Help save stricken birds and flying fox by calling (02) 6672 4789

By Jonathon Howard THREE TWEED Valley Wildlife Carers attended a flying fox rescue at Stokers Siding recently and found a stricken flying fox had become entangled on a barbed wire fence.

The residents of the property alerted TVWC when they found the flying fox in the morning.

Unfortunately, during certain periods, rescues like this occur almost every day.

At the moment, TVWC are seeing several bats being rescued every week and most of these rescues involve flying foxes becoming entangled in barbed wire.

When a flying fox catches a wing on barbed wire, its momentum spins it around and its wing twists into a roll.

It can be caught on multiple barbs as it tries to chew through the barbed wire in order to escape.

However, trying to chew through barbed wire or fruit tree netting does incredible damage to the animal’s mouth.

Mouth damage is rarely treatable, and the flying fox rescued at Stokers Siding had to be euthanised.

Carers attending flying fox and bat rescues are trained in appropriate techniques to minimise further

Black flying fox rescued recently

injury to these special animals during rescue.

They also receive certain vaccinations. However, without physical contact with the animals, there is very little risk of contracting a disease from flying foxes or bats.

Bat bites and scratches are dangerous because about one per cent of flying foxes and other bat species carry Australian bat lyssavirus which is transmitted by saliva.

This disease can only be contracted by handling a bat, not through droppings or urine.

For this reason, it is very important that members of the public do not handle flying foxes or bats.

There have been only three known fatalities caused by lyssavirus in Australia and no one who has been medically treated for a bite or a scratch with the rabies vaccine has died.

TVWC President Jan Pilgrim said flying foxes are extremely smart, “as smart as a four-year old”.

“They know when you are trying to help them,” she said.

“But if they are very distressed, they can try to bite.”

There are several species of flying fox in the Tweed Shire, including black flying foxes like the one rescued in Stokers Siding.

Watching one of our colonies fly out at night is a magical sight.

There may be hundreds of bats streaming into the sky, but some species of flying fox are threatened, and their numbers are in decline.

Flying foxes are key to the m a i n t e n a n c e o f Au s t r a l i a n ecosystems, especially our eucalypt and rain forests.

They are essential pollinators and disperse seeds over large distances, travelling up to 100km per night.

Without flying foxes, the forests and all of the animals that depend on them would be at risk.

Flying foxes are threatened by habitat loss and are sensitive to extreme temperatures. Temperatures over 40 degrees Celsius, which are becoming more common in our increasingly hot summers, can cause them to fall from the trees and die from heat stress.

TVWC member Joanne Heighes, who attended the bat rescue, said she loved the the little creatures.

“I feel it is very important for people to have an understanding of bats,” she said.

Help flying foxes by calling the TVWC 24-hour Hotline on (02) 66 724 789 if you spot a sick or injured bat.

Please report flying foxes on fences even if they are not on your property.

Remember that only trained and vaccinated specialists should handle bats of any kind and that it is vital to seek medical treatment if you or a pet is bitten or scratched.

In further local wildlife news, last month in Pumpenbil, a wedge-tailed eagle came off second best in an encounter with a pair of geese.

Wedge-tailed eagles are Australia’s largest raptor (bird of prey) and are a protected native species.

Although they do prey on chickens, most of their diet is made up of wild animals.

A member of the public contacted Tweed Valley Wildlife Carers’ 24hour Hotline.

They had heard a commotion in the yard and found that their two pet geese were attacking an eagle and had pinned it to the ground.

The caller had moved two new chickens to an unprotected run.

The wedge-tailed eagle had killed both chickens and was eating them, when the geese came out to protect their flock.

A TVWC member who is a raptor expert remarked, “it’s odd that the eagle killed two chickens. But if he has a mate that is sitting on

The Wedgey is an Aussie icon and sometimes they need our help

eggs, he would be providing most of the food.” Wedge-tailed eagles, who mate for life, usually begin breeding at this time of year. While the female is on the nest, her mate will do almost all of the hunting.

When the member of public called off the geese, they found that the injured eagle couldn’t fly higher than shoulder height. They managed to contain it and contacted TVWC. Robyn Gommers, a TVWC member and veterinarian, attended the call, which turned out to be on a neighbour’s property. “We’ve had a lot of raptors around here lately.

We’ve had to keep our own chickens locked in,” she said.

“Amazingly, the geese were completely fine. But the eagle didn’t look good,” Robyn reported.

“The geese had rolled him in the dirt and the wet. His feathers were terrible. He looked much better the next day when he’d dried off.”

Robyn moved the eagle into a more suitable cage for the night.

“He had recovered a bit and wasn’t as stunned, so he wasn’t happy about it. Luckily the sun was going down, so he couldn’t see very well and was easier to handle. I cared for him overnight and took him to Currumbin the in the morning.”

The wedge-tailed eagle is currently being cared for at the Currumbin Wildlife Hospital Raptor Facility.

X-rays did not show any broken bones, so hopefully he will be ready for release in the next few weeks.

TVWC has handled 38 raptor rescues in the last year, although none quite like this one! Remember that only trained experts should attempt to handle raptors, as their beaks and talons can do a lot of damage.

If you find an injured native animal of any kind, call the TVWC 24-hour Hotline on (02) 6672 4789.

I’m sure all readers will join with me in wishing all the Region 1 sides every success in this Blue Ribbon event. Go! Go! Go! South Lismore, Cudgen Leagues, Cabarita Beach and Pottsville.

See you on the greens. Good bowling everyone.

CONDONG

The game was billed around the Club as the battle of the big guns and B grade Bob. Wazza Peart, Dave Cranwell and Mick Chilcott took on Jeff McDonald, Bob McBurney and Peter Ayres in a game that had everything from big drives to deep draw shots with all players lifting for the occasion.

Team Peart won the game by a handful of shots but it took them to the last end to do it.

BOWLING CLUB

LAST SATURDAY’S Open Men’s Triples Final certainly lived up to the expectations of the onlookers.

Cabarita Beach Ladies all fired up to grab the State Grade 3 Flag again

Dave Cranwell was player of the match, proving why he is also the singles champion with a great array of shots.

The Ladies weekend Pennants continued on Saturday with all games played at Condong.

Our team of Kim Keevers, Mary Chisholm, Jenny Glasby and late replacement Caroline Caine had another win to remain undefeated.

This Saturday the B Grade Pairs will kick off with all games due to be played. All players must be financial to be eligible to play.

Our Friday night Member’s Jackpot is now at $1,300 and with the bistro serving up some great meals and good meat trays on offer it is well worth coming along.

Shine At Us Open THE BIGGEST show, or circus some may say, is underway for the US Open at Huntington Beach California.

Not known for good waves, the contest is one of the QS 10,000 with a lot of points up for grabs for those looking to qualify for the 2020 World Tour.

The event also has the women’s division which is the first ever QS 10,000 for women.

The “Huntington Hop” is in full swing, which is the name for how the surfers have to bounce through to the next section in the often small and powerless waves.

Surfers also dodge through the Huntington Pier as well, massive crowds, skateboarding, music, and everything else makes this an event well worth watching or being there, even though the surf is often sub-standard.

So far, there has been action in the men’s division, with the only Gold / Tweed Coast surfers left in the mix

being Jack Freestone and Liam O’Brien.

Both surfers looked good in the small conditions, Liam O’Brien in his second year on tour and looking to qualify for 2020, and Freestone will be looking to secure a position on the 2020 World Tour on the Qualifying Series.

His partner Alana Blanchard surfing in the Women’s division also looking to qualify for the Tour, and maybe a first where a couple and their little one travel the tour together, and both competing on the big stage.

To be honest it would be great to see.

Local ladies are representing in the women’s, Steph Gilmore having a crack, with up and comer Kobie Enright in round two.

Local ripper Zahli Kelly is round one and if successful in her heat will join the others in round two.

Zahli has impressed the commentators and officials, and could do some serious damage in the event.

To watch the US Open, it will be for late night owls or the early risers,

as the event kicks off each morning from12.30am, and wrapping up around 10am our time (on the WSL website or WSL app).

Looking back: The 1968 NSW Titles were held at Kingscliff and Cudgen won its first NSW Title in the Chariot Race which was a great crowd pleaser in beach events. It consisted of five members in the loose for formation of a rugby league scrum with the sixth as a jockey on top who had to be upright and supported by holding two towels which were held also by the front row. Cudgen defeated the Australian title holders, Cronulla in this event. It has been deleted from competition for just on the past 40 years.

It was not until 1982 that another NSW Gold was won, this time by Murray Cox in the Junior Iron Man. The only Gold won in Qld before Cudgen affiliated with

Cudgen surprise Mustangs, Raiders lose crucial game to Byron

By Jo Kennett SOME OF the best footy of the year was on show last weekend, July 27-28, both in the local derby between Cudgen and Murwillumbah and the Byron versus Raiders game at Cabarita.

Murwillumbah were the favourites going into the Mustangs Charity Cup Day against old foes Cudgen Hornets.

They have had a great season and were looking the goods but the Hornets, sitting in sixth position with only three rounds to go, needed to win to make the top five.

That proved motivation enough to see them take a stunning, last minute win.

With scores locked at 16 all, it came down to the last play where the Hornets scored a brilliant try to take the win 20-16.

“It was always going to be a physical game, so we took it to them early and set the tone,” Hornets coach Mark O’Grady said.

“They are a big physical side, so we had to take it to them before they gave it to us.

“It was a good first half, we were up 15-4 at half time.”

In the second half we gave away a lot of penalties and that brought them into the game, and we did well to stay in there.

“They were attacking a lot, but our defence was really pleasing.

“We lost a couple of players in the game, we lost Alex Hugh with a compound fracture of the nose when he hit Tim James, who got twelve stitches under his eye.

“They got two tries and with thirty seconds to go Harry Fitzhugh threw a cut-out pass to our centre Harry Dumas who ran 30 metres to score.

“Everyone erupted, it was good because we hadn’t had that for a while, and we needed some confidence around the club with everything that’s been happening.

“We play Mullumbimby this week and we have to be able to back up what we did last weekend.”

Mustangs skipper Caleb Howell said they knew it would be a tough match.

“It’s always a tight contest and they’ve recruited some pretty

handy players since last year,” Howell said.

“We didn’t match their intensity in the first half. We were quite slow in attack and a little bit clunky. It was quite a close second half.

“We were in the lead in the last ten and almost had the game tied up if we could have kept things up their end.

“They did well to level things up and we didn’t put enough pressure on their halves when they were making plays.

“Next week we have Byron and they have Carney back so we’re expecting a tough game which will be good going into the finals as we really need to test where we are at.”

In the Ladies League Tag the Hornets beat the Mares 20-8.

“We’re happy coming up against Murwillumbah with the score we produced,” Hornets coach Letitia Kelly said.

“We were dominant in the first half, we weren’t complacent.

“We got the first try after half time, but they got two tries which shook us up a bit.

“We concentrated on playing our game and we came back harder and held on for the win.”

“We play Mullum this week.

They are a bit like Murwillumbah, they have talent and they are unpredictable.

“We are still enjoying it and the girls are a fantastic group so I’m quite pleased to be working with them.”

Mustangs coach Nick Forrester said it was a pretty even game.

“Cudgen flew out of the blocks and had us down 14-0 before we even got going. We won the second half 8-6 but it was too late,” he said.

“They didn’t drop the ball or make an error the whole first half, they were just too good for us.

“That was the best half of football we have come up against from any side this year.

“I was really proud of how the girls stuck with it in the second half; they were down 20-0 when Cudgen scored, and they didn’t get frustrated and scored two really good tries.

“We have Byron next week they are sitting on the edge for a finals berth - we have missed out - so it’s

a must-win game for them and we are expecting it to be a real challenge.

“We’ve had a strong second half to the year after a slow start, but I think the girls have really enjoyed themselves.”

In reserve grade second placed Cudgen beat the ladder leading Mustangs 30-12.

In the Under 18s, the fifth place Mustangs upset comp leaders the Hornets 34-22, knocking them into second place.

Congratulations to Mustangs Jake Parker on his first-grade debut and also to all the Mustangs for their work and support of Take Five for Kids, a wonderful charity that gets equipment into hospital to help improve the lives of sick kids and their families.

Raiders report THE TWEED Coast Raiders match against Byron was always going to be a tough one with Todd Carney back in and several key Raiders players out.

It was hard and fast and one of the best games all year, with some

great attacking play which saw the Raiders in front 14-13 at half time.

After being dominant through the first half, three injuries in quick succession early in the second half saw Byron gain the upper hand to take the win 31-20.

Ethan Brouwer filled in for Dan Willoughby in the number nine position and there were rumours Willoughby might be lucky to get his jersey back after the reserve grade player’s man of the match performance.

“It was a good tough game, but we had three injuries in the second half which put us all out of whack and out of position,” he said.

“We were killing it through the middle in the first half, they were absolutely rolling through there.

“It was a lot quicker game than usual, just tough intensity.

“We have to win the next two games to make the final five,” he said.

“We have Ballina and then Cudgen and they are must win games.

Assistant coach Mike Ashburn said the Raiders were looking forward to taking on competition leaders Ballina next week.

“They are the teams you want to play before the semis to see if you should be there or not,” Ashburn said.

“Everyone’s excited. We didn’t beat Ballina last year until the grand final but for now we have to make sure we are in that top five.”

In the Ladies League Tag the second placed Raiderettes played brilliantly to beat last year’s runner ups 22-0.

“It was the last home game, so we were trying to keep the momentum going,” Raiderettes captain Sarah Doyle said.

“We worked together as a team really well and spread the ball out wide.

“Our attack is definitely coming along, and we have a lot of speed out wide and we are just learning how to use it.

“We’ve had a few injuries, but everyone should be there for the finals. I don’t think we are expected to win but we will give it a red-hot go.”

Byron reserve grade forfeited and the ninth placed Raiders Under 18s almost upset third placed Byron, going down 20-16.
