Debate over Murwillumbah Show name

show, it appears views have been mixed leaning towards positive around a gate fee to ensure the show’s long-term survival. However, several residents had pointed out to The Weekly that the Murwillumbah Show had become known as one of the only free shows in Northern Australia Many shows around Australia have also adopted a gate fee for entry, many with mixed views from within communities. “This is an important step for the show to keep it sustainable,” Ms Gardiman said. “We cannot survive by depending on donations and handouts alone.” Ride prices were also raised as a concern, which when coupled with gate fees can quickly add up for local and visiting families. “I understand the complaints about the ride prices and am in negotiations with the Showman’s Guild who are responsible for the rides,” Ms Gardiman said. Ms Gardiman said the show itself is run completely by volunteers and is severely lacking in helpers, especially people from the younger generations. “So I am looking forward to hearing from those of you next week who are prepared to get behind the show and be a volunteer or join the Agricultural Society to keep this show going. My email is secretary@ murwillumbahshow.com,” she said.

A FERN that had been presumed extinct in the Tweed Shire has recently been rediscovered according to local Botanist Lui Weber, who has spent years in search of the rare fern. Mr Weber said the Border Ranges lined fern was a stunning example of the huge variety of native plants and animals that have their homes in the Tweed Volcanic Region, many still awaiting discovery. “Antrophyum austroqueenslandicum is a single leafed lithophytic fern I found still living on a rock as they must have been for hundreds of millions of years when plants first emerged on to land and had to adapt to sun and gravity,” he said. “This fern was first discovered across the border in Lamington National Park in the 1980s but has not been seen since and was listed as “presumed extinct”. “Knowing that this area is part of the original Mount Warning volcano I always hoped I would find one in the Tweed where we have such a variety

of habitat with different altitudes and geology that have sheltered an immense array of plants, animals and fungi over the past 20 million years.” Mr Weber said that while the national parks in highland and mountain areas were outstanding places for rare plants, they were not enough to conserve the

Tweed’s entire biodiversity. “Finding a boulder with these rare and unique ferns is an outstanding achievement for the private landholders who are conserving lowland subtropical forest and may be saving an entire species like this fern,” he said.

to, in which case I think it would be a positive change to the Tweed Show,” he said. “The Show Society is meeting on Thursday, August 31, to discuss the changes and see whether it’s possible without the AGM.” Mr Campbell said he was more certain the name would remain the Murwillumbah Show in 2017 with a possible change in the future, “but not without proper processes”. “The Murwillumbah Show is now one of the oldest continually running agricultural shows in Australia celebrating its 117th Show this year,” he said. “Although I believe the name change could be a positive one, it’s important we don’t make these decisions without proper consideration of the processes and in the best possible manner.” Among the other big changes includes the introduction of an All Day Ride Pass, plus the highly debated gate fee this year which could be around $10 per adult and $5 for children. “This will give you access to the Rodeo on Friday night, all weekend entry to the Show and activities including all the traditional events plus live music (big announcement coming) and fireworks,” Ms Gardiman said. There has always been a gate charge, it is only in recent years, it became a gold coin donation.” While debate remains around the name change and past names for the

GATE ENTRY fees may be the only change to the 117th Murwillumbah Show this year, despite a hotly debated proposal to change the show’s name to the Tweed Show, which Show Society President Allan Campbell said would be more likely next year. The Show Society had been in contact with The Weekly to appeal for volunteers in July, but the most recent announcements have come from newly appointed events manager and Show Society secretary Peita Gardiman. Ms Gardiman, who operates the new Murwillumbah Makers and Finders Market and several other local initiatives, announced the 117th Murwillumbah Show will now be known as the “Tweed Show” on social media, which she said is set to be “bigger and better than ever”. “With new entertainment, attractions, rides and exhibits you are in for a real surprise,” she wrote on social media. Ms Gardiman was appointed by the Show Society as secretary, however a final decision on changing the show name was more likely to be made in May 2018 during the society’s Annual General Meeting. The Weekly spoke with Show Society treasurer Ralph Dephoff who said the name change may need to be raised at the Annual General Meeting. “We need to clarify whether the name change needs to be put through the AGM first, although it may not need

Questions around Tweed water contamination

Well the Tweed Shire Council has managed to contaminate our drinking water again,this time with salt water. Will Council disclose the extent of the contamination in the public forum and show documentation of “parts per million”readings so we as ratepayers can take remedial actions if we have pumped our fruit trees or vegetable gardens full of salt. What if you have washed your expensive car in salt water and you can hear the rust eating your car? No they wont, as Council’s mammoth mistakes are swept under the carpet time after time. Has anybody yet heard of a decent explanation from Council on why all of our Murwillumbah depot’s trucks and machinery were left to swim to safety in the last flood? Ratepayers of the Tweed be warned this latest stuff up by Council will probably show up on your next rates notice as a salt tax, because as we all know too well, this mob will always pass their stuff ups onto us to fix by raising our rates. Ron Robins, Burringbar

Who’s defacing Murwillumbah’s entryway

Regarding Neville and Leonie Jennings letter (TVW, August 17). Phil’s business is one street back from the bridge and is not the entrance to Murwillumbah. I think Phil should be congratulated for having a go and attempting, like others, to have this service station denied at Alma Street. That was not Phil’s comment that the service station would be an eyesore, but a quote from page 4 letter to the editor. We need to support each other in this push to keep the entryway to Murwillumbah. Michael Morris, Murwillumbah We require our railway system back in operation, for the good of all who live and work in this part of NSW. I for one, have been baffled ever

since the NSW Government decided to close the existing rail service in the upper Northern Rivers districts, then replaced it with pollution producing vehicles. Areas in the south west of NSW (Cootamundra for one) have had their rail spur lines closed, with trucks and buses replacing the trains and again “kowtowing” to the bottom line of the mighty transport companies. The NSW Government have and continue to pour billions of taxpayers dollars into trams, roads and tunnels for Sydney and our local council and the NSW Government are going to waste taxpayer money on a “rail trail” that is totally ridiculous, for many obvious reasons. All the authorities should change the short-sighted decision made by the NSW Government in the first place, and stop throwing money away on an air-brained folly. Please everyone in the upper Northern Rivers districts be supportive of getting the trains back on our tracks, to help make this region excel in all its aspirations. Colin Treweeke, South Tweed Heads

Why the rail should remain

A look at past history will tell you why. The original Gold Coast rail line closed and 20 years later it was realised a costly mistake had been made. A new rail line was built to replace what should have never been destroyed and they are probably still a decade off reaching Coolangatta Airport. The North Australia Railway closed only to be rebuilt around 20 years later. Stations at Katherine and Darwin had to be built further out of town because original rail land had been sold. The largest tram network in Australia closed down in 1961 and trams are now making a comeback in Sydney, the line to Dulwich Hill was built almost all on disused, not destroyed railway lines. At some time in the future trains, possibly light rail will run from the Northern Rivers to Coolangatta Airport. To destroy the infrastructure already in place would be a financial burden on future generations. As far as a cycleway is concerned similar construction to a foot path is all that is required not full scale destruction of an existing asset. Philip O’Neill, Kielvale

Rail trail a waste of money

Would you paint the front fence if your roof is leaking? I’m afraid that is exactly what we are considering with the rail trail. I would like to see the trains return, but even if that will never happen, we can not justify the expenditure

Also two of them are privy to the fact that 19 metre/40 tonne trucks will in no way be a danger on the narrow country roads that they would have to travel on. One of them disagrees and says that only 10 metre/30 tonne should be used. However he is obviously not in the loop as regards to the safety of 19 metre trucks on narrow country roads! With their vast knowledge of civil engineering they also can assure us that there will be no degradation to road surfaces and can honestly say that there will be no cost to ratepayers for road repairs. All three are convinced that the extraction of the groundwater that belongs to all of us by a few individuals to be sold only for financial gain is of course very appropriate. We are so lucky in the Tweed to have such councillors working for us and our future. They alone have this information. No scientist, civil engineer, or road safety expert can compete with them. Their knowledge is out of this world. So when it comes time for them to vote on these matters in the council if they vote for continuation and expansion of this activity they are in fact confirming the above statements. Sadly I do not think that any of these statements are valid in any form. The three councillors know who they are and I would ask them to reply to this open letter in this newspaper confirming and justifying the reasons for their decisions in this matter. They can take this opportunity to enlighten me as they never answer my emails! The Tweed Shire residents eagerly await your explanations ( At least I do anyway !) Or will silence be your only refuge? Gwyn Hooper, Uki

Three Tweed Shire Councillors are the only people in the world to have groundbreaking information and sadly they are not going to enlighten us all as to how they got it. Or for that matter explain it, I have emailed them but as usual none of them reply. They know that continued, unregulated extraction of groundwater here in the Tweed will have absolutely no effect on the flora and fauna of our beautiful valley. They know that it will not effect other areas as well. They obviously know this as there is no way whatsoever that they would gamble with the future of the Tweed. No way is there?

It’s koala breeding season (August to February). Last season three female koalas captured in or adjacent to the urban landscape in Pottsville were euthanased. One was found sitting on a letterbox in someone’s front yard. One was in a tree behind housing on the edge of the wetland. These two outwardly appeared to be in good health but were found to be suffering from chlamydia. The third had entered an urban backyard and was mauled by a dog. So why are koalas often seen in or adjacent to urban landscapes and places that are foreign to them during breeding season? Some say that wild koalas are happy with human interaction, citing their experiences with koalas at the Currumbin Wildlife

Councillors must explain support for water mining

Breeding koalas on the move

Sanctuary. A veterinarian at the wildlife hospital explained that all their koalas are bred in captivity, accustomed to people and only handled by humans for 15 minutes each day. Some have suggested that koalas like to get a better look at human activities, yet there is evidence that human disturbance causes stress to wild koalas leading to diseases such as chlamydia. One of the symptoms of chlamydia in female koalas is cystitis. This affects their reproductive system, making the mating process extremely painful for them and rendering them incapable of reproducing. Males are very singleminded when it comes to mating. I have seen a female leap five metres to the ground to escape a male in chase. I suspect that females with chlamydia and cystitis often enter the urban landscape during breeding season in an attempt to escape breeding males. If your readers see a koala in or near human activity, could they please use a zoom camera to get a close-up photo of it (ensuring that there is minimum stress to the animal) and send it to Friends of the Koala, who will assess its appearance and arrange capture and treatment if necessary. A joey with early signs of chlamydia adjacent to the Black Rocks sports field was saved from a miserable death in this manner last year. Dave Norris, Pottsville

People are damaging Hastings Point headland

Reflecting on the (justified) annoyance, even anger, about the Aquaman film set on Hastings Point, I am led to consider the continuing effect on that ecosystem and its attractiveness to the general public. Admittedly, the film set is a shortterm, intensive degradation of the site. Yet day in and day out there are people clambering over the point and the surrounding rock shelf for any number of reasons, and I cannot believe that the effect of their activities on the headland does not have a deleterious long-term effect. Oh well, another conundrum of the Anthropocene. Māris Bruzgulis, Tweed

Lost item found at Pottsville

On 2-2-17 you were good enough to write a small feature article, after I wrote a letter concerning my hobby as a metal detectorist. In response to my urging anyone who had lost anything to call on me for help, a lady rang on 8-2-17 whose granddaughter had lost an item at Pottsville Beach on Christmas Eve. I am hoping that she now reads this letter, because I would like that lady to please ring me again, as I do not have her name or phone number and by chance I have found something that may or may not be the item concerned.

on an impractical recreation facility when there is so much more that needs doing around the area. Our roads, which are in desperate need of repair, is just one example of how this money would be better spent on something that benefits the whole community and visitors alike. For those using our children’s lifestyle as a justification for the expenditure, six million dollars would not only build the best Police Citizens Youth Club in the country but would fund the staff for many years to come - surely a much better prospect for our youth. As far as increased tourism dollars is concerned, the few extra coffees sold at Stokers Siding, Burringbar and Mooball as a few die hard riders pass through is so negligible on our economy as to be laughable. However, accessibility and better facilities, such as good walking tracks for all age groups, at all the natural wonders of the Tweed region would definitely attract tourism. Sheila Cuttance (TVW, August 17) correctly raised the issue of the tunnels as a substantial negative to the walking/bike trail. Having firsthand experience in the Illawarra region, where several railway tunnels were once open to the public for walking, I can advise that not only are they a magnet for petty crime and vandalism, but they stink because thoughtless, inconsiderate walkers think they are a convenient toilet stop. Finally, has anyone considered why the government is so keen to support this venture? Would they have been so supportive had we asked for other tourist or recreational facilities? No, this is just a wonderful opportunity for a government in the pocket of the road transport industry, to rip up the rail infrastructure and so put an eternal stop to the Murwillumbah railway.

Banana Festival lands with Apex Club Flu season worst ever

THE BANANA Festival has been officially handed over to the Apex Club of Murwillumbah this week, in a move that could secure the festival’s future for years to come. The Apex Club of Murwillumbah members held a meeting with the previous owner of the Banana Festival Jennifer Unwin on Friday, August 18, at which time the festival was passed over to Apex in full. Apex Murwillumbah also held a group meeting on Monday, August 28, to finalise the handover and to accept all

responsibilities of the Banana Festival and property. Apex treasurer Jorja McLeod told The Weekly that the group was ecstatic to have the festival in the hands of the local Apex Club and were looking forward to a bright future for the iconic event. “We are so happy to have the festival back and we’re planning on taking it slow to build it back up in 2018,” Jorja said. Apex Club members said it was possible that the festival could run in a reduced capacity this year on Saturday, September 9, or at a later date to be announced.

“We’re waiting on some key information from Tweed Shire Council to determine the best process for this year, however we can already say that next year should be a big comeback for the festival,” she said. The Apex Tweed Valley Queen Quest will now revert back to the Tweed Valley Banana Queen titles. Apex members have also confirmed the name will remain the Tweed Valley Banana Festival with no proposed changes. The club have also introduced the Miss Tweed Valley title which will replace the Charity Queen title. The club is now calling on past and present sponsors to come forward and show their support for a renewed push to make the festival great both in a reduced capacity this year and in full next year. “We would really like to encourage support to get the Banana Festival back on track through strong local sponsorship, which can be tailored to local business’s budgets, but will go a long way to assist with mounting running costs,” Jorja said. Ms Unwin has expressed an interest in remaining involved with the festival to assist, which is being considered by the Apex Club. “I would like to encourage the community to get involved and get behind the festival each year,” Ms Unwin said. “Particularly after its been such a tough year for Murwillumbah, I think the Shire needs a great festival. “I’d also like to encourage younger residents to get involved with the festival, whether that’s through the Queen titles or as volunteers.” Anyone wanting to get involved in the Banana Festival or to offer assistance are encouraged to phone Apex on: 0413 878 148.

THE TWEED Shire and Northern Rivers have experienced one of the worst flu outbreaks on record with thousands of people falling ill across NSW during August. Official data shows that August 2017 was the worst month on record for the flu with 35,670 confirmed cases in NSW. This surpasses July 2017 with 16,686, August 2016 with 13,602 cases and August 2015 (12,901) – the three previous worst months. August is traditionally the worst month for influenza and so far this year NSW Health has recorded almost 60,000 (59,460) cases, an all-time high, which compares to 35,538 in the entire year for 2016. The Northern (North Coast) Local Health District reported 1,649 cases in August compared to 963 in 2016. NSW Shadow Health Minister Walt Secord has slammed the Berejiklian Government for what he said is a failure to properly prepare for the flu season, putting the entire health and hospital system under enormous pressure. “Every year we know the flu season is coming and again, the State Government has been caught off guard,” Mr Secord said in a media statement. They have dropped the ball on prevention. The flu season is smashing NSW emergency departments and it is only going to get worse. “Due to the State Government’s failure to properly prepare, the additional flu patients in emergency departments mean other patients have to wait longer. “The last thing that the NSW health and hospital system needs is to see thousands of extra patients pouring into emergency departments with preventable flu symptoms. “The health and hospital system is already at breaking point. It is under enormous pressure.” YOUR THOUGHTS: Did you get the flu this season? Or how did you avoid it? Send us your flu remedies and letters to editor@theweekly.net.au

Time to hang up the reins

fter 12 years as franchisees of Bakers Delight Murwillumbah, we have decided to hang up the reins. In a move many customers may have anticipated, we have sold the business to team member, Dana McCarthy.

The Madden Family: Carrie, Brooke, Greg, Vance, and Danny

We came to Murwillumbah in April, 2005, on purchasing the then two year old bakery. Our son, Vance, was two at the time and our second son, Danny, was born two weeks after the takeover! Our daughter, Brooke, came along in 2009. It has been a busy but rewarding twelve years, working night and day on baking and sales while raising our family, and we have decided it is time for a change. Dana and her partner, Adam, are Murwillumbah locals, and have a two year old son, Kolbe. Dana is a qualified baker and has been working in Bakers Delight bakeries since 2001, first in Brisbane, then in Tweed Heads and finally, in Murwillumbah since 2014. She has had a big hand in running the bakery recently as we have dealt with family illness, and so, we feel the transition should be a smooth one. There will still be the same great product and service but we are sure Dana will bring a renewed energy and put her own stamp on the bakery. We would like to thank all the team members who have worked so hard and been a big part of our success. One of the highlights of our time in Bakers Delight has been to mentor so many young people through their first employment and be a part of their lives. We would also particularly like to thank all the loyal customers who have helped keep us in business all these years. There are people we have seen every day, every few days, or every week of our working lives in Murwillumbah. They all know who they are. Our customers have been unwavering and we will be forever grateful for their support and, more importantly, their friendship. We wish Dana, Adam and Kolbe all the best for the future. Our last day will be September 20th, 2017. Greg and Carrie Madden

If the wedding’s off, who keeps the engagement ring? Well, the wedding is off. Love fled when the couple got to know each other better, and it was best to end it now before the walk down the aisle into wedded hell. So, what does the law say about what happens to the engagement ring and all the gifts and property the couple bought together? “You’d think that, as the marriage never happened, each party would withdraw with whatever property they had put into the relationship,” said Stacks Law Firm solicitor Anneka Frayne. “That would be sensible. But in these situations, anger and bitterness can overtake common sense.” A recent case in the NSW Local Court illustrates this point. He broke off the engagement after he had given her a $15,000 engagement ring and handed her two weddings rings costing $1,300 to show to her parents. During the relationship he bought her gifts including an iPhone, watch, diamond necklace and bags worth a total of $5000. Together they bought a $2,600 bedroom suite. When he broke off the engagement, she agreed that they would return the gifts they had bought for each other. She wanted his shoes as she had paid for them. He gave them to her, along with other gifts she had given him. But when she refused to hand back the rings and his gifts, he took her to court. “Under the law, an engagement ring is a conditional gift, in that it is a gift conditional on a marriage proceeding. It goes back to a case in 1926 which found there was an implied condition that an engagement ring shall be returned if the engagement is broken off,” Ms Frayne explained. “However, the 1926 judgement also found that the person who breaks the engagement cannot demand the return of the ring - unless there is a legal justification not to continue with the wedding, and that can be difficult under modern no-fault divorce laws.” In this case, the magistrate ruled that the man could not demand the return of the engagement ring, as he was the one to break off the engagement, so he was the one who broke the “contract” to marry. The wedding rings were ruled to be the man’s property, as the wedding didn’t happen. But she could keep the phone, watch and diamonds as they were his gifts to her. He did, however, get back half the bed. “It is always better to resolve these matters by mutual agreement than end up in court,” Ms Frayne advised. “If the parties can’t agree on their own, it would be wise to use a qualified mediator who knows the law.” comment

WATER RESTRICTIONS were lifted on Monday, August 28, as salt levels within the Tweed’s water supply continue to drop following a number of measures taken by Council including dredging of the Bray Park Weir. Immediate water restrictions were put in place on August 22 after a combination of climatic conditions caused salt water in Tweed River to surge over the weir wall. The Bureau of Meteorology said that a number of climatic factors came together in a rare event resulting in the overtopping of the weir wall on Monday, August 21 including higher than predicted tides. Councillor James Owen will put forward a motion at next week’s Council meeting (Thursday, September 7) to bring forward a report “on the technical requirements and options for raising the Bray Park Weir to prevent such occurrences in the future. The motion reads that various options exist for securing the Tweed’s water supply and these will be brought forward to councillors. “There are upstream impacts of raising the weir which have in the past caused significant concern for property owners,” the motion reads. Tweed Shire Council’s Manager of Water and Wastewater Anthony Burnham told The Weekly that Tweed

water remains safe to drink however residents were asked to take care when watering salt intolerant plants and with fresh water fish tanks. “Salt levels only marginally improved at Bray Park Weir during the weekend. So the town water supply therefore remains affected by salt,” Mr Burnham said on Monday. “The levels of salt are somewhat lower than when the problem first occurred and the water remains well within the ‘good’ quality classification for total dissolved solids in accordance with the Australian Drinking Water Guidelines. “The water has been distributed to most areas now, so the salty taste is affecting most consumers to some extent. “The restriction on outdoor water use has now been lifted. The water is suitable for outdoor use such as washing cars. Mr Burnham said he expects the salt content to improve during the next three to five days. “We are also continuing to release fresh water from the dam to ensure flow through the weir. This situation is being monitored closely and will change as salt levels reduce further,” he said. “It is expected that once the salt is cleared from the weir pool, the salty taste in the water will reduce over the next week or so. Drinking water for Uki and Tyalgum is not affected.”

Mr Burnham thanked the community for minimising their water use while Council worked to bring the salt levels down. “The community response bought us time to drain the worst affected parts of the system before demand for water forced us to release water with higher than normal salt levels into the system,” he said. Meanwhile Council said it is now using two dredges to pump salty water from the lower depths of the Bray Park Weir. Together they are pumping about 380 litres a second out from depths of up to 12 metres and discharging it over the weir wall and downstream. The dissolved solids content from 12 metres was almost 3000mg per litre. Tweed’s normal dissolved solids content for the drinking water it treats at the Bray Park Water Treatment Plant is 160mg/litre. Levels currently in the mains pipes are at about 360mg/litre. Water treated at the plant and due for release in the next few days is at nearnormal levels of 250gm/litre. The weir is 19 metres at its deepest point and salt concentrations at the bottom of that hole are likely to be very high as they have been built up over many years with heavier salty waters sinking. It is not known yet whether the current dredging operation will manage to pull water from that depth.

Questions over salt water contamination

THE FOLLOWING questions were put to Tweed Shire Council’s Manager of Water and Wastewater Anthony Burnham in relation to the recent incident where salt water entered the Bray Park Weir. 1. Could Council please outline the processes in place to avoid a recurrence of the salt water mixing with drinking water? “Under normal operating procedures, Council uses tidal information together with downstream river flows to manage the risk of the weir wall overtopping during high tides,” Mr Burnham said. “If the information indicates over-topping is likely, Council raises the weir wall with sandbags. The Bureau of Meteorology has confirmed that a number of climatic factors came together in a rare event resulting in the over-topping of the weir wall on the night of Monday, August 21. 1. There was a run of high tides up to 420mm higher than predicted. 2. Seawaters were saltier than normal. 3. Ocean temperatures were higher than normal. 4. A ‘trapped’ wave travelled north up the coastline to the Tweed. “Also Council is currently undertaking community consultation and the planning required to look at options to modify the Bray Park Weir. This work is ongoing and may take some years.” 2. What can be done to prevent such mixing and did a lack of rain contribute to the issue? “The natural downstream flows in the river on this occasion were not of sufficient volume to hold back the saltwater coming upstream,” Mr Burnham said. “But the river was still flowing and water was still going downstream over the weir wall so the flows were not considered too low prior to this event.” 3. Does the recent occurrences of sea water mixing with fresh water, provide more credibility to the idea of raising the dam

wall? Further to this, would raising the dam wall help prevent this issue in the future? “No. Raising the dam wall has nothing to do with the salt issue. The salt issue is a result of the Bray Park Weir wall being over-topped by sea waters,” Mr Burnham said. 4. Finally, what are the current water levels like in the dam? Is there a need to conserve water locally and during these dry periods? “The water levels in the dam are at 96 per cent today (Tuesday, August 29). The dam was at 100 per cent at the start of this event,” Mr Burnham said.

The world of humanity consists of two parts or members: one is woman; the other is man. Until these two members are equal in strength, the oneness of humanity cannot be established, and the happiness and felicity of mankind will not be a reality.

BP Chinderah Servo approved to expand

EXPANSION PLANS at the BP Service Station, Chinderah, have been approved by the Land and Environment Court with conditions set out by Tweed Shire Council on Thursday, August 24. The decision follows more than seven years of exchanges between BP Australia who wanted to expand the service station at 1 Ozone Street, south and into known koala habitat, a move that Tweed Shire Council had rejected due to several concerns including a failure to adhere to Council’s Koala Plan of Management. Council’s Planning Team had previously called for the $4.5 million service station expansion to be refused on the grounds that BP had failed key issues including sound impacts to surrounding homes. Mayor Katie Milne told The Weekly she felt pressured by the State Government to concede to the development, which she highlighted as a growing area of concern across the Tweed Shire. “There’s expected to be around 0.35 hectares of bushland, known koala habitat, cleared to the north of the Chinderah BP Service Station,” she said. “However, the Council was able to negotiate a reduced footprint, an offset for Cudgen Nature Reserve, improved layout and improvements to the

remaining bushland.” Mayor Milne said it would be “distressing to see the beautiful bush area cleared”. “It was just not possible to argue much longer,” she said. “As with any Development Application, Council will keep an eye on the plan and it’s important to keep an eye out for any koalas in the area when clearing commenced.” Mayor Milne said the State Government Legislation puts Council in a tough position. “While Council had to agree to the terms and it was pleasing to see the BP Service Station adhering to the Koala Plan of Management and we’re hoping to work closely with the service station to ensure the impacts are minimised.” The development application to expand the BP Service Station was first submitted to Council in November 2010 and sought for two new truck refuelling bays as well as 30 (originally 36) new parking bays for trucks, according to council planning documents. Since that time Tweed Shire Councillors had been actively seeking further information from the applicant to address specific concerns including the ecological, traffic and noise impacts of the proposal. Council planners had recommended the development be refused in 2012 and 2014 due to BP’s subsidiary failing to address the site-impact concerns, but

on both occasions Councillors deferred a decision to allow the company more time to respond. In August 2016, Councillors called for a further report that offered greater detail as well as a recommendation from council planning staff. The plans had again failed to address ecological, traffic and noise impacts despite council staff going above and beyond to accommodate. Its noise report also fell short according to Tweed Shire Council Planning Director Vince Connell who said the application had “failed to acknowledge” homes closer to the site and “fails to address noise generated by the braking of trucks on the adjoining motorway when entering the site”. In his report, Mr Connell said the BP Service Station had “expended an extensive amount of Tweed Shire Council staff resources” on it “without any immediate prospect of resolving the outstanding matter”. Councillors voted to refuse the expansion at their October 6, 2017 Planning Meeting. BP launched an appeal with the Land and Environment Court and a conciliation conference was held at the service station site on August 14, 2017.

Our lucky Stage One students travelled to Fingal Head recently for a cultural excursion. Uncle Frank Krasna was their guide for the day. He was incredibly knowledgeable and graciously shared his deep understanding of local indigenous culture with our students. The children started the day with a Dream Time Walk and discovered the rich variety of edible bush tucker available in our region. This was followed by some �me to play some fun indigenous games from around Australia. A�er lunch they took a walk along the beach track to the basalt forma�on, locally known as Echidna Rock. Finally, the children were given a canvas on which they were able to sketch an image of this beau�ful and signiﬁcant indigenous site. It was a wonderful way to showcase for the children the rich indigenous culture of our region and its close rela�onship to the beau�ful area in which we live.

ONE OF two heroes who helped a 79-year-old woman out of her sinking car after it plunged into the Tweed River at Chinderah on Saturday, August 26, has reflected on his experience and corrected several inaccuracies in media reports. Matt Brown told The Weekly he was travelling north on the Pacific Motorway behind a hatchback with his wife Janine and three children. He said he watched in horror as the car he’d been travelling behind suddenly veered and then flew off the motorway at almost full speed, or 110km per hour, straight into Boyds Channel, a channel off the Tweed River just north of the Tweed Valley Way entrance to the motorway. Matt immediately pulled over as he and other concerned witnesses tried to determine whether the driver would exit the now floating car. “We called out to see if the elderly female driver was ok, and initially there was no real panic as the car was riding pretty high in the water, and a kayaker had paddled over to help” he said. When he realised the driver was unable to get out, Matt made the decision to enter the water. “I stripped down to my lucky red boxers and hit the water as soon as I could,” he said. “The kayaker, Tyler, had already made it to the vehicle and did a fantastic job of assessing the situation and keeping the driver calm.” Matt said he arrived and found that the windows were down, but he could not open the locked doors as the car was sinking. “All the electrics were out, so I could not get the door locks to work, but luckily the windows were already down. “It was made even more urgent as the lady was pleading with us to get her out, saying she did not want to drown.” With the situation becoming critical the two rescuers knew they had to act quickly.

“The driver told us that she had a hip replacement and could not easily move, but I knew that if we did not get her out immediately it would be too late,” Matt said. The quick-thinking Tyler, 21, suggested the driver manoeuvre to the passenger side where the two men were able to pull her out through the window, not the rear hatch or boot as was mentioned in other media reports. “It was amazing timing because the car went completely under, very soon after she cleared the vehicle. You don’t get time to think too much in those situations, which is just as well, as this was a very close thing.” Matt’s wife, Janine also played a pivotal role, keeping a cool head and liaising with emergency services from the moment of the accident. Matt and his wife both work at St John’s College Woodlawn Lismore and they were visiting family on the Tweed. “It was truly surreal after it was all over, Tyler just got back in his kayak and paddled off down the river, and we went on our way. I am truly heartened by the way strangers can come together to help a fellow human in distress, and I am unbelievably thankful we got her out,” he said. The Tweed District Rescue Squad were the first to arrive at the scene and assisted the woman out of the water and up an embankment. “Lucky for the driver she only suffered minor injuries, however was taken to Tweed Heads Hospital for observation,” Tweed Police said in a media statement. “Police have no doubt that without the assistance of the two men who entered the water to assist the elderly driver the result would certainly not have been as positive.” NSW Fire and Rescue also assisted police and the vehicle was towed from the channel. The woman had been driving from Kiama, and police said they would “like to remind drivers of the importance to Stop Revive Survive”.

THE MURWILLUMBAH ADHD group has announced special guest speaker Dr Nerida Saunders will present a free talk on the latest treatments for ADHD at the Murwillumbah Brothers Leagues Club on Friday, September 8, from 10am to 12noon. Dr Saunders is a leading senior psychologist on the Tweed who operates the Neurofeedback service for children, teenagers and adults living with ADHD/ ASD. Autism spectrum disorder services are widely available in the USA and Europe but are relatively new to Australia. The service, which is now available in the Tweed Shire, assists the brain in forming new pathways for better concentration and

better working memory. Dr Saunders said she strongly believes in the power of the individual and the ability of the individual to overcome what may seem to be insurmountable problems and regain effective control of their lives. She believes a catalyst such as a Psychologist is necessary at times for this process to be nudged along, to empower and direct towards resolution. Dr Saunders belief in and her acceptance of the individual are her most effective counselling tools. The Tweed Heads ADHD service featured in The Weekly on July 27, which now has expanded services. This will be a free event with morning tea provided.

Special Energy Crisis Feature - Part 2

The Bad News:

Power Prices Up by 20%!

On the 1st July power prices increased by 20% in NSW due to systemic manipulation

of the wholesale electricity price by power generation companies. Households in NSW use only 1/3 of the electricity produced, yet pay 80% of the total power costs passed on by networks and power companies. This is unfair!

Generating solar power on your roof is the only guaranteed way to take back control of your electricity bill.

This Special Feature will help you understand how you can reduce your power bill with new strategies that make the most of changes to electricity markets today.

The Good News:

Solar Feed in Tariffs Higher!

The solar feed-in tariff (FIT) for NSW has been set by the Independent Pricing and Regulatory Tribunal to a range of 11.9 to 15c per kWh, up from 5.5 to 7.2c last year. This is a price guideline only for electricity retailers and is not mandatory. Market competition has created an incentive for electricity companies to increase their tariffs, and solar customers are advised to shop around and switch providers if necessary. Electricity bills are needlessly complex, but fortunately the Government’s Energy Made Easy website allows consumers to input their bill information and see the accurate comparisons between energy offers. 888 Solar Tek has surveyed the market for our solar customers and prepared this table to help you get the best deal:

Vincent Selleck is the Managing Director of 888 Solar Tek, dedicated to helping households and businesses defend against the high cost of electricity, with strategies and solutions using the latest solar technology available today.

Take Back Your Power!

Battery Power is the new revolution in solar. 888 Solar tek have installed more solar battery systems than any other solar company in the Northern Rivers. Our Solar Power Battery Storage systems are one of the best ways to beat the unfair electricity network and create energy independence today. Our advanced Z21 battery inverter system is just as happy on the grid or off the grid, so it is the perfect building block for migration off the grid. It has remote monitoring, recording full history for solar power, grid use and export, battery charging and your power use in an easy to access platform for your phone, tablet or PC. You can get control of your new energy system to get the most out of every kWh with free 12 month support. With custom designs based on your energy use, 888 Solar Tek will maximise the benefits of your investment and deliver a cost effective solution for your power needs. They offer a free energy assessment and are delivering hybrid and off-grid power systems that are much cheaper than buying from the grid. 888 Solar Tek is local, family owned solar company based in the Northern Rivers, providing revolutionary new technology that slashes the cost of solar power and battery storage.

Solar Power Play Number 2

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

With FIT’s at 16c you can now sell power back to the grid as part of a strategy to minimise and eliminate power charges completely. Power from 2.5 kW of solar will offset your electricity supply charge when all the generated power is exported at 16c per kWh. With solar FIT’s now more than half the cost of grid power, the rest of your power charges can be neutralised with more solar as well. Power used from solar panels directly during the day will offset the full price of buying power, so maximising use during the day is essential. Power used after daylight hours can be offset by generating and exporting twice as much to the grid as you use at night. A two person household could neutralise their electricity bill completely with 5-8 kW of solar panels, without using batteries or going off grid. The Network operator, Essential Energy, sets limits for how much solar you can export to the grid. A general cap of 5 kW of solar generation is often applied. Using batteries to store the extra solar power generated above your export quota is then an excellent investment to eliminate most of your power charges. A combination of solar for export, self use maximised during daylight hours and battery storage is a great strategy to bring your bill closer to zero for medium to large households. You can also go off grid and eliminate your bill as well. 888 Solar Tek offer a FREE consultation to help you with your solar energy plan, examining your bill, advising on energy providers and designing a solar solution to help you take control of rampant energy charges.

Enova and Origin are fighting it out to set the highest FIT. Origin owns several coal and gas generation plants and has contributed heavily to force up wholesale electricity prices in the last year. They have the largest market share in the Northern Rivers and offer a 15c per kWh FIT. Community owned Enova went one better with 16c. Newcomers, Energy Locals, have the best all-round plan with lower supply charge and energy prices and a very good FIT. They also supply 100% carbon offset power at the same price. These offers will not be automatically passed on to current customers. You have to call your energy retailer to change your plan in order to get these deals!

Others powered their house using left over scraps. “One boy had a floating house and had to think about where to put the septic system. “They were really thinking about their designs and they had to come up with solutions to make them work.” The Tweed Home Expo has been combined with the Tweed River Festival for the first time this year and will be held on Saturday, September 16 from 9am to 4pm.

THERE IS not long left to enter an innovative home design into this year’s Build it Local Sustainable House Day Northern Rivers Design Competition, to be announced at the Tweed Home Expo on Saturday, September 16. This year’s Build it Local theme encourages Northern Rivers residents to take inspiration from their local environment and create a design that is unique to our area. Entries are open until September, 1 with $5,000 in cash and prizes on offer. “Building with local materials and using local or your own labour not only lowers the environmental footprint of the build, it also creates a special relationship between the builder, their environment and their home,” competition coordinator Andia Cally said. Entering Red Ned’s Professional category this year is designer Ronny Matzat. “Sourcing locally available, leftover materials and finding ways to turn them into sustainable, healthy and aesthetically pleasing building structures is one of the challenges designers and architects face today,” he said. “This is why I was immediately drawn to this year’s competition theme. It’s turning trash into treasure and I personally love the creative challenge of using common everyday materials in new, innovative ways to save our planet from more waste of

Drivers needed for local taxi service

“At the moment, there’s a few things coming to legislate Uber, which will provide a level playing field for taxi businesses and it’s been a long time coming,” he said. “We offer full insurance and cover for our drivers and unlike Uber, we offer certainty in the jobs we provide and constant work.” Tweed Coolangatta Taxi Service is an independently owned local business that’s been operating for more than 60 years. Murray said the business has undergone expansion across the Tweed Valley and the Tweed Coast. “We purchased the Kingscliff Taxi Service in 2014 and the business has a strong presence across both the valley and coast, which means there’s positions available across all areas of the Tweed Shire,” he said. “I’d like to encourage locals to give us a call and talk about how you can earn some extra money working for yourself.” To find out more phone Tweed Coolangatta Taxi Service on 133 422 or (07) 5536 3371.

TWEED COOLANGATTA Taxi Service has put the call out for new drivers as the business continues to undergo growth and the need to keep people moving increases. There are now almost 20 positions available for local drivers with strong communication and people skills and of course have a valid NSW driver’s licence. Tweed Coolangatta Taxi Service general manager Murray Spencer said the business would welcome local pensioners, who are able to earn up to $100 per week without affecting their income. “There’s a lot of local people who might like the extra money,” he said. “We provide the taxi and fuel and book the jobs, the role only requires someone with great people skills, a NSW driver’s licence and ABN,” he said. Murray said the soon to be announced legislation on Uber drivers was also likely to even up the playing field for local businesses.

Burringbar residents raise concerns over greenhouse noise A BURRINGBAR family say they are being driven to the point of exhaustion from the constant humming of ventilation fans, the noise of a power generator and the constant anxiety of waiting for the completion of a second greenhouse at a neighbouring business known as Pocket Herbs & Produce on Howards Road. Kate and Mark Paszkowski say they have been living a terrible nightmare after three years of peace and quiet only to now hear the constant sounds which they say are coming from the greenhouse site 24-hours per day. However, the company has completely refuted those claims stating they are acting within their Tweed Shire Council approvals and Pocket Herbs owner Iain Reynolds said the relationship between the two property owners had been sour from the start. Pocket Herbs started in early 2008, according to the company’s website, and is a hydroponic grower of Micro Greens/Baby Leaf Herbs and living specialty fresh produce which is distributed to markets and restaurants around Australia. The business is located at 67 Howards Road, Burringbar, and is adjacent to neighbours Mr and Mrs Paszkowski who live at 75 Howards Road. The Burringbar business includes two greenhouse operations, with the further of the two already operational and a second smaller greenhouse getting closer to being fully operational. Mrs Paszkowski spoke to The Weekly on Tuesday, August 29, along with many of her neighbours to express their concerns with aspects of the Pocket Herbs business, which they said was creating a “major noise” issue for families to the point where Mrs Paszkowski has sought medical advice for “sleep deprivation”. “I’ve been diagnosed with fatigue and distress from the constant sound coming from these ventilations fans, which run 24-hours per day, seven days per week, and I’m struggling to

get the whirling sound out of my head, even when I’m not at home,” she said. The family had spent the past ten years saving to afford their dream home at Burringbar, which is nearing completion, but since getting the house started the Pocket Herbs business has set up a second greenhouse which is creating further tensions between the neighbours. Mrs Paszkowski said that she thoroughly scrutinised Pocket Herbs and has a copy of their original application back in 2014, and she felt there was no mention of mechanical fans, temperature control equipment or noise mentioned in their application to the Tweed Shire Council. “Even a conversation with the town planner was organised and none of the noise emanating equipment was discussed,” she said. The family which includes two children said they are fearful they are now facing the possibility that their home may be unliveable should 20 fans be installed in the second greenhouse. Mrs Paszkowski goes on to say that should this application have been “honest” including the noise equipment (fans), the family would not have built a home here. “None of the neighbouring properties had a chance to object and I believe the application submitted to Council is not being adhered to,” she said. The Weekly spoke with Mr Reynolds who said he understood concerns with the ventilation fans, but he highlighted that he had replaced all the ventilation fans with reduced noise European fans, which he said were “silent and can be computer controlled”. He also stressed he had reduced the number of fans from 21 to 17. “I think what many people are not taking into consideration is that we’re a working farm that employees 25 local people and we’re working within the Council’s requirements,” he said. “Where ever we have identified a problem or issue from the neighbours, we’ve attempted

to address the issue and resolve it in the best possible manner, we’re not acting outside our obligations and we’re not attempting to make life harder for anyone.” The family said they have been formally complaining to the Tweed Shire Council since 2016 when the fans were switched on. “It has taken too long to get the council to respond to our concerns,” Mrs Paszkowski said. Another Burringbar resident, Debra Minto, who also lives on Howards Road, wrote to The Weekly several weeks ago to flag her concerns including highlighting that the Pocket Herbs business was one of the only local operators opting for industrial fans. “Unlike other greenhouse businesses in Burringbar, this new business relies on industrial fans to grow its produce,” Mrs Minto wrote. “The constant circulation of air is reported to prevent moulds and fungus attacking the young plants. “What does this mean for residents living in the surrounding rural properties? Noise impacts 24-hours a day, seven days a week.” Mrs Minto pointed out the issue was first raised with Council in October 2016.

“That was when the mechanical ventilation system was switched on and many questions have since been put to Council about the Development Application for this business, but not a lot of answers have been forthcoming,” she said. Mrs Minto highlighted that the Council DA approved the hours of operation for this business as 7am to 5pm, seven days a week and contains no information about mechanical ventilation or the need to operate industrial fans 24-hours a day. “The Environmental Impact Statement contained in the DA stated that noise impacts are not anticipated. “Council has now acknowledged that there is a breach in noise limits and intends to proceed with a noise impact assessment. Mrs Minto said the property is zoned RU2 Rural Landscape and that Council should participate in the development application process to ensure that the rural character of the area is not degraded. “It is great to see a new business in Burringbar creating local jobs - but not to the detriment of the surrounding neighbourhood who are currently losing sleep.”

New drop spot for sanitary items Tweed Masonic Hall open day

provide local women with sanitary items at selected drop off locations to be then donated to the Murwillumbah Community Centre.

Beverley’s On Main Street is the latest location to offer a pink bin for residents to drop off items such as tampons, sanitary pads and underwear liners. As well as being able to drop sanitary items at Beverley’s, residents can continue use the The Weekly office on Queen Street as a drop off site with a pink bin. Sheree Garner and Beverley Hill at Beverley’s On Main Street both agreed the need to help local women with sanitary items remains a priority. “The push is back on to help struggling mothers and local women with sanitary items with Beverly’s offering a great location for the drop off pink bin,” Mrs Garner said. “The initiative is to help provide more of these crucial items such as sanitary pads and tampons,” she said. Mrs Garner said the items will be donated

to the Murwillumbah Community Centre and be distributed locally. “We’re really pleased to have this drop off location, just look for the pink bin and please give what you can to help local women,” she said. As was previously reported in The Weekly, several local women had been forced to use toilet paper and napkins as substitutes when money was tight and with hungry kids to feed. Mrs Garner said the report saddened her and she’s hoping the community can continue to help women across the Shire to avoid such a scenario. “I want to encourage locals to get behind the cause and give where they can please,” she said. “Some families are struggling locally and often women are being forced to go without essentials and I truly believe we can all help alleviate this pressure, so please give what you can.” Anyone wanting to find out more can visit Beverley’s On Main Street retail outlet or phone The Weekly on (02) 6672 4443.

AN RENEWED push is back to help

THE TWEED Masonic Centre at Tweed Heads is hosting an open day on Saturday, September 2, to allow the community to see inside an organisation that has global influence and has been shrouded in secrecy for almost 300 years. While freemasonry will still have symbolic secrets that are revealed to members only, Chairman for the Tweed Valley Masonic Welfare Association Michael Zuschke said it was time to show the wider community that the Masons are not a religion but are a way of life that encourages men to live honest and useful lives in our community. The Tweed Masonic Centre will be opening its doors to interested community members that want to know more and have a look at what is a significant part of history in the Tweed Valley. The doors will open from 10am Saturday, September 2, at the Tweed Heads Masonic Centre, 8 Boyd Street Tweed Heads, the home of 11 different orders including the Knights Templar, Royal Arch, Order of the Eastern Star (ladies), Secret Monitor and more,” Mr Zuschke the District Grand Inspector of Workings and Chairman for the Tweed Valley Masonic Welfare Association said. “The Masonic Welfare Association has twice been the winner of the BEATS awards for non for profit community group and our charitable work if felt right across the community. “We are currently running a raffle for a complete boat on trailer with 15hp Yamaha motor, supplied to us by North Coast Marine at Billinudgel. The proceeds of this raffle will be donated to our local Rural Fire Services that do a magnificent job in the Tweed Valley. “That is the way we work, we like to concentrate our charitable work in a local sense and straight to the point where it is needed the most. “Together with the assistance of Masonicare we are looking forward to donating a total of $6,000 to the Local RFS. “Masonicare assist us and match our fundraising efforts dollar for dollar to allow us to contribute back into the community.” Mr Zuschke said that all are welcome to attend the day including retired elderly brethren. “I extend a welcome to all those people that want to know more about what we do

Rotary Art Show a roaring success Aldi Tweed Heads

THE MURWILLUMBAH Rotary Club has completed another successful Art Show at the Community Centre with the final day of the exhibition on Saturday, August 26. Art Show Convenor Douglas Jardine said the 27th Art Show was among the most successful on record. “Our artists provide an ongoing and dynamic visual record of our community,” he said. “The aim of the Art Show is to provide these artists with a vehicle to exhibit their work, and for the community to share in the enjoyment of that work.” There were a total of 93 entrants exhibiting a wide range of paintings and photographic styles. This year, for the first time, entries from high school students were included which added another layer of creativity from local youths. Student entries were received from Tweed Valley Adventist College, Lindisfarne Anglican Grammar School, Murwillumbah High School, Wollumbin High School, Mt St Patrick’s College Murwillumbah and St Joseph’s College Banora Point. “The real-life experience of the Art Show allows students to be involved in the exhibition selection process and further develop their understanding of the requirements of artists to display in a public arena,” Mr Jardine said. “This opportunity assists in enhancing student’s learning and further develops an appreciation of their own creative abilities. “It fosters networks within our community and allows students to participate in the ‘real world’.

Art Show Convenor Douglas Jardine, Mt St Patrick College student Summah Young and Lindisfarne student Maria-Rosa Moore

Lindisfarne has already indicated its interest next year and said it is proud to be a part of and support this annual art exhibition. The Limpinwood Woodcrafters added to the art and photographic works on display with a woodcraft display, which highlighted the range of skills of the members. They also donated a handcrafted cedar table as a raffle prize. The judging of the Art Show entrants was by Jeff Gant (art) and Rob Olver (photography). The Club is fortunate in having the support of local sponsors, which enables prizes to be offered as part of the Art Show. These sponsors are Scandinavian Cone Company, Solo Waste Recovery, Mayberry Meldrum & Anderson, Yellow Brick Studio, Larkin Lighting and Electrical, Elliot & Son Venue management, Print Spot and the Tweed Valley Weekly. To reflect the standard of entries and thanks to the increased generositys of

sponsors this year, the Club increased prizes to the value of $1,400. Prizes were presented at the opening night on Tuesday, August 21, which was attended by over 70 people. The winners were: Art • Major Prize: Barney Miller • Second Prize: Lesley Doherty • Encouragement Award: Eleanor Morrison • Highly Commended: Jenny Lui Leung • Student Encouragement Award: Summah Young Photography • Major Prize: Chris Wheeler • Second Prize: Katrina Cram • Second Prize: Jim Gray • Student Encouragement Award: Ari Messina • Highly Commended: Julie West General • Packer’s Prize: Brenda Bryant • Viewer’s Choice: Brenda Bryant The Club is now looking towards the 28th Art Show.

ALDI HAS revealed its Tweed Heads South store will undergo a comprehensive store upgrade this month in a move the retailer says will improve product displays with modern styling. The company said Aldi Tweed Heads will close temporarily from 5pm on Sunday, September 17, and reopen on Thursday, September 28, with a fresh new look, including better product displays, improved navigation and modern styling. Aldi, however, sidestepped questions around whether Murwillumbah or Kingscliff were earmarked for future Aldi stores. Many of the improvements have been implemented following extensive store trials and Aldi’s statewide rollout of the new format in South and Western Australia. “While we’re delighted to be introducing these innovations, we want our customers to know they won’t lead to higher prices,” an Aldi Australia spokesperson said. “Aldi is committed to offering high quality products at unbeatable value, and this will not change as a result of these upgrades.” The company said the new features will include redesigned shelving, expanded wooden produce bays, as well as extended energy efficient chillers. The company said energy management remains a key priority for Aldi and the store already has energy efficient LED lighting. “There will also be new point-of-sale displays and store signage,” a spokesperson for Aldi said. “We’re excited to be undertaking these upgrades and welcome the community to visit our new store from Thursday, September 28.” Opening hours will also continue to be 8:30am-8pm Monday to Friday, 8am-8pm Saturday and 9am-7pm Sunday.

Father's Day Memorial Service on Friday TWEED RESIDENTS wanting to remember lost family members are finding comfort in a combined memorial church service now in its fourth year, says Tweed Shire Council. As Murwillumbah Churches Together and Tweed Valley Cemetery prepare to host the next Father’s Day Memorial Service on Friday, September 1, Pastor Rob Stuttle said they were seeing many people returning regularly. “The fact we are seeing people returning to each Mother’s Day and Father’s Day service shows the services are significant for them,” the Living Waters Church pastor said. “There’s a bond starting to happen because people are seeing and recognising other people who have been to the previous services.” He said he believed people welcomed the opportunity to share their emotions and remember parents or children who had passed away. They also appreciated the simple ceremonies conducted as part of the services, which are held in the Eviron cemetery’s historic chapel. “By lighting candles and putting down flowers, they are participating in the service and those actions help to deal with the grief,” Pastor Stuttle said. “People often want to do something with their grief. To me, they are the most important thing about the services. “The community also likes to see ministers from four different churches working together.” Murwillumbah Business Chamber President Ilze Jaunberzins has been to six of the combined services held so far

and said she liked their inclusiveness. “All faiths are welcome, which is beautiful. It’s highly symbolic of connectivity in the community,” she said. “The services provide a lovely space for reflection. I find they are really moving but also supportive, which makes the services a very bonding

experience. “I like the services’ focus on our mothers and fathers – and the candlelighting ceremony is very moving.” This year’s Father’s Day ceremony will be held from 11am, with light refreshments provided. For more information, contact Tweed Valley Cemetery on (02) 6670 2435.

Bag theft prompts appeal A TWEED HEADS mother has made a desperate plea to have her belongings returned after her bag containing more than $4000 in cash and personal documents was stolen from a local shopping centre. Vicki Perretts was shopping at Tweed City shopping centre on Tuesday, August 22, at around 6.20pm. She was parked undercover and after pushing a trolley towards the carpark, she decided to leave the trolley. She then realised that she had left her leather multi-coloured patchwork handbag on the trolley and quickly ran back. But when she returned to the trolley to her shock the bag was missing. Vicki’s daughter has since contacted local media and used social media to attempt to track down the contents of the bag which contained several important documents. The items inside the bag included $4100 in cash, her driver’s licence, Medicare card, bank cards, her car keys, a new passport for which she was about to use to go on a planned holiday and her vehicle registration papers. “Tweed Police have been informed about the incident and are also attempting to track down the contents,” Vicki’s daughter told The Weekly. “We just need some of those documents or the bag or anything back from the bag please, especially the keys and passport, which have been hard to replace on short notice.” Anyone who can help Vicki can contact The Weekly editor via email editor@theweekly.net.au or phone (02) 6673 4443. Alternatively, you can contact Tweed Police with information by phoning: (07) 5506 9499.

Ongoing growth at airport

GROWTH IN passenger numbers continues at the Gold Coast Airport with the latest figures showing an increase of 1.3 per cent over the past 12 months to 584,756 passengers. Queensland Airports Limited CEO Chris Mills said the results were pleasing across the board. “Gold Coast Airport’s growth has steadied to a modest rate after strong numbers last year, and until completion of our terminal expansion program it will be challenging to grow significantly due to constraints around capacity of the current facility,” he said. Gold Coast Airport’s growth of 1.3 per cent was driven by strong performance on domestic routes. JetGo also operated its first full month of Gold Coast – Albury services for the ski season.

The People You Meet... with Fran Rabbitts ROSEMARY EVA and Liz Coles are passionate Alpaca breeders from Palmvale who retired and were originally from Melbourne and Longueville in Sydney. The ex-nursing professionals had previously held high and demanding positions, but decided to settle in Palmvale for their retirement. “We both had farming backgrounds and were looking for a complete change and a return to a rural lifestyle and deciding to pool our resources we chose the Tweed Shire where in the past we’d often holidayed,” Liz said. “Our new life began when we purchased a property at Palmvale about 20 acres. “There were many challenges at first including fencing the paddocks and then over time plantings of more than 3000 trees including the bird attracting natives as well as many koala trees.” Now living the country lifestyle, they attended most agricultural shows and it’s during one such show that their interest in Alpacas started. After much research including contacting owners and breeders, they decided to start their own Alpaca stud at Palmvale naming it Longueville after Liz’s Sydney home. It was to be the first alpaca breeder in the area. There’s a wide choice of colour variations from white to shades of

browns and they chose to specialise in the blue/black strain. Unlike many other grazing animals, Alpaca’s made good sense due to their grazing habits which have a minimal impact on the soil. With a history of more than 3000 years of domestication, Alpacas are easily handled. Alpacas have a life span of about 20 years and are ready to mate from two years onwards, so the stock is being continuously increased. Generally Australia is Alpaca friendly and although originally a native from the high Andes in Peru they’ve proved to be adaptable to the local climate and Australia now has the largest herds outside of South America. Here there’s an increasing interest in Alpacas especially now as retirees and families are relocating from the cities to the countryside. For the newcomers to a country lifestyle they are ideal because they require minimal care but adequate fencing and pastures are important. They’ve been domesticated for centuries and another bonus is their fastidity because unlike most other animals they choose a particular

spot for defecation making paddock maintenance easier. For the land this is a bonus as their grazing is less destructive than usual grazing animals due to them not grazing to ground level which is carefully monitored and is an asset for pasture control. Spring time is always anticipated by them. “Birth never ceases to amaze me,” Liz said. “It brings a sense of wonder and enjoyment to see a new life come into the world. “It’s a celebration and these animals with their nurturing nature could teach us all how important this is.” They are beautiful and appealing animals and framing their large eyes are long contrasting lashes and they are as gentle in temperament as they look. Alpacas are often a welcome diversion for their “hug a paca” and very popular with many through their exposure in the Aged Care and Disability community. Lions, Rotary and school groups are also regular visitors.

Big win for Tweed koalas THE TWEED’S koala population has received a much needed boost with the NSW Government announcing the purchase of 100 hectares of koala habitat in Pottsville. Member for Tweed Geoff Provest joined Environment Minister Gabrielle Upton and Mayor Katie Milne at Lomandra Drive, Pottsville on Friday, August 25 to make the announcement. The land is situated adjacent to Tweed Shire Council land which connects to the Cudgen Nature Reserve at the northern end of the Koala Beach residential estate. The property sits within Tweed Shire Council’s Tweed Koala Plan of Management area and is part of a 14 kilometre corridor from Casuarina Beach in the north to Black Rocks in the south. “This is massive win for our koala population and our local community,” Mr Provest said. “This land will help rehabilitate and establish koala habitat to help secure the Tweed-Brunswick koala population. “Securing this land will also support the Council’s Tweed Coast Koala conservation work.” Mayor Katie Milne thanked the Minister and local member for their decision. “This is a key parcel of land that would have had a significant detrimental impact if it was developed for private purposes,” Mayor Milne said. “The Tweed is experiencing enormous development pressure and, as a consequence, our koalas are only hanging on by a slim and very frayed thread. “This is a really great outcome today. We really need all levels of government to continue these bold actions or there is no doubt we will lose our koalas in the very near future, according to all reports. “We really couldn’t afford to go backwards if this block had been lost. For what was about an average cost of a Sydney house block, this purchase has meant a big win for koalas.” Council General Manager Troy Green said the purchase was a “rare and far-reaching opportunity to make a real difference for koalas on the Tweed Coast”. “Council has worked closely with the NSW Department of Environment and Heritage to identify the significance of this land and propose it for acquisition,” Mr Green said. The level of demand for coastal living throughout Australia is one of the reasons that species such as the koala have become threatened with extinction.”

Battle of the Bands off to great start

MADAME Having grown up in a country where the number 13 is viewed with great suspicion I can easily understand how a dinner could be spoiled by having thirteen people around the table… This is the premise of Madame, the new comedy starring Toni Collette and Harvey Keitel. Anne and Bob, a wealthy American couple living in a manor house in romantic Paris, have invited their posh international friends for dinner when they realize that in order to avoid having thirteen people at the table they need an extra guest to bring the number to fourteen. Anne convinces their Spanish housemaid Maria to join them for dinner, pretending to be an aristocrat from Spain. Maria has the face of Rossy de Palma, one of Pedro Almodovar’s most recognizable regular cast, who has an unforgettable physical appearance and a very strong personality. Despite being told by Anne that she should maintain a low profile during the dinner, Maria’s natural ebullience attracts one of the guests at the dinner, a British art broker, who is convinced that Maria must be a Spanish princess. The two fall in love… Their budding romance sees Anne questioning her own life choices, chasing her maid around Paris and finally plotting to destroy this most unexpected and joyous love affair.

Like a modern Cinderella story, Madame is a satirical take on the snobbish delights of upper class Paris, seen against the authenticity of the immigrant underclass that works for them.

THE AIRLIE Beach Battle of the Bands has commenced with the first heat held at the Nimbin Bush Theatre on Saturday, August 19. The talent was fantastic with some amazing artists competing for the prize of a paid live performance at this year’s Airlie Beach Festival. We were privileged to hear some great acts, including Entropix, Beatnik Empire, Will Massey and Craig Atkins who took second place. The standout group and winners of the first heat were Salt and Steel, two young ladies in a partnership that have been playing together for around three years. This duo is energetic and fresh and engaging and really connect with their audiences. I caught up with Briony and Elle and to talk to them about their music. Q. How many original songs have you wrote? A. About two albums worth, which we haven’t recorded yet, we won the Buskers by the Creek competition last year and a recording package at Love St Studios. So we are looking forward to recording around October this year. Q. How did you meet? A. We were together as a partnership

and we decided to travel, and Briony was occasionally doing open mics and jamming with people on the beach. I wasn’t actually playing anything then but seeing Briony connect with people through music, I really wanted to get involved in this. I bought myself a Djembe and then Briony bought me a Cajon for Christmas we added some Cymbals and started performing with that and now we are where we are. It’s amazing to look back at our journey. Q. How did it feel to win the first heat and to get automatically placed in the final? A. These comps help us work on the finer things developing our sound. We’re getting closer and closer to it.

We’ve grown so much in the last few years but we’ve needed all this time and the learning process to grow. We would like to travel and have people jump up with us and for it to be different each time. We are a solid act, just the two of us, but there is always potential for more. There’s a great synchronicity when this act plays, if you have a chance to catch them live or even go and support them at the Battle of the Bands final at the Nimbin Bush theatre at 7pm on Saturday, September 30, you won’t be disappointed they have really set the bar for the rest of the acts. Chana is one of the judges for this year’s competition.

The historic Norco Butter Factory will be reborn as The Buttery and will host a wonderful selection of paintings and illustrations by local artist Patricia Maria Fair through the weekend.

What an intriguing final round of football we have at the Footy with Quinny

All we know is Melbourne will finish first and it’s going to take a very good football team to stop them holding the trophy at the end of the year. They are the pinnacle of the sport and epitomise everything a team should include. I think they win and win well come October. The Broncos stumbled badly against Parramatta but It is a concern for both teams that so many points were leaked by top 4 sides two weeks from finals. The Sharks seem to be a bit off, although they had a chance and almost snatched that game the Roosters seem a much more clinical unit. The Cowboys are hanging in there and played real

Footy Tipping Gurus POINTS LADDER

this weekend where the Hornets take on Marist to see who challenges Ballina for the trophy. In reserve grade the Mustangs will look to roll the home team for another shot at an undefeated Marist Brothers. Ballina will look to go back to back in u/18’s as they wait for the winner of Casino and Marist Brothers. Marist Brothers have qualified in the ladie’s league tag and play the winner out of Byron Bay and the Mustangs. The Mustangs ladies have improved out of sight and snuck into the finals where they have been on a winning run and will look to continue and book a place in the big dance next week. Good luck to all teams involved and up the Mustangs. See you at the Footy Quinny

tough on the weekend to still be a chance and Manly escaped against the Warriors who dead set do not know how to win, that was a crazy contest and DCE showed some amazing skill to kick field goals off both feet to seal the win. I must applaud the Dragons for their stance with Josh Dugan and missing the bus. We hear this buzz word of ‘Culture’ so regularly and this was a prime example of the standards being set by the club and players for dropping him for missing the bus (on the back of missing the plane the week before). I like the quote ‘The standard you walk past is the standard you accept’. Well done Dragons. Well done to the teams who have already qualified for the NRRRL Grand Finals to be played at Ballina next weekend. All roads lead to Cudgen

Offshore: well it’s been hard going offshore. With most fish being taken on half pillies. Sunday might be you best bet. Still good fish out wide if you can get out there. Word is the current has picked up already so you might want to take your heavier jigs and weights. 54’s, 40’s and 36’s fish well when weather permits. Estuary: will be the go this week with a the warmer weather this week and the rain, it should flush the bait out of the rivers and creeks and fire up the mulloway, flathead and bring the jacks out of early hibernation. The places to fish for big Jew this weekend after the rain will be the Pin, the North Seaway wall, South wall Tweed, blue hole, Brunswick rock walls and Ballina rock walls with live bait. Bait of choice for most fisherman are live pike, mullet, tailor and large herring. Flathead will be a great option this weekend with the weather conditions and a lot of big models are getting around at the moment. Try Terranora and Cobaki lakes all worth a shot. 3 inch Wriggle, grubs and paddle tail plastics in natural colours working best the last few days. Small soapies, Tailor and Trevally around the bridges of Tweed. Blade, soft and hard vibes and plastics fished though can normally trigger a bite. Luderick at Barney’s point, Tweed south wall, kingy rock wall and bridge, dry dock, thrower bridge and Tally rock wall. Beach: hasn’t been the best off the beaches lately. With wind and swell. Still tailor off the rock at sun up and sun down. Bigger tailor soaking while pillies of a night. Freshwater: with the warm weather and rain the freshwater should be fishing really well. Any drains, water flow and ebs around water falls, will be worth a cast. Try a cicadas at sun up and sun down in upper Nerang, upper Coomera, and Hinze dam and try deep diving lures around the Clearwater island and around the timber at Hinze dam.

Featured Business

Swap a Bottle is a locally family owned & operated Lp Gas supply business which prides itself on great service and competitive pricing. Based at 10 Kite Crescent Murwillumbah, we service all over the local area with distributors also based from the Gold Coast to the Tweed Coast. We offer “no Rental” fees on our cylinders and you can even drop in and pick up a large gas bottle and have your own bbq bottle filled onsite for $20 while you wait! Amy and I were born & raised in Lismore NSW, Moving to the Tweed over 20 years ago. After almost 30 years continued work for a large gas corporation it was time to start our own small gas business while starting our own family. We started small in gas fitting then moved into outdoor heater hire and gas supply to restaurants. With such support & demand we broadened into gas swab cages and then eventually the large 45kg cylinders. It’s been rewarding having our family grow alongside our business. Both of our children enjoy local sports and as such we’ve been proud sponsors of Seagulls Jrl and Bilambil Touch Association for many years.

A sacriﬁcial anode is a vital part of your water system, and having it inspected can be the difference between an efﬁciently working system and a costly replacement. Manufacturers recommend that you maintain the anode in your system in order to prevent damage from rust + corrosion.

Tweed church named dementia friendly Vote for community health awards

TWIN TOWNS Uniting Church has received its dementia-friendly accreditation, in recognition of its work to support and nurture members of its congregation and the local community who are living with dementia. Dementia-specific community seminars entitled ‘Creating a Dementia-friendly Community in Tweed’ were hosted throughout 2016 and 2017 in collaboration with the Tweed Dementia-Friendly Steering Committee, and the Church Council is committed to hosting public education programs on issues related to dementia in an ongoing capacity. In addition, as part of its ongoing commitment to being dementia-friendly, Twin Towns Uniting will continue to review its physical environment to ensure accessibility and inclusivity, dementia-friendly language will be used in communications and plans will be developed for a Memory Cafe and Communal Garden in 2018. The Twin Towns Uniting Church were congratulated on their work by members of the Tweed Dementia Action Group during their service on 6 August. “We are very pleased to have taken this step with Alzheimer’s Australia which has helped us to become more aware and sensitive to the needs of people living with dementia in our congregation and community,” Chair of the Church Council, Debra Pinkerton said. The Tweed Dementia-Friendly Steering Committee was launched in August 2016 as an initiative of the Alzheimer’s Australia NSW Liveable Communities Program. The Committee comprises people living with dementia, carers, services, individuals and church representatives. Chris Vannucci, Alzheimer’s Australia NSW

Twin Towns Uniting Church

Diversity Inclusion Officer based in Tweed, said the development represents a great accomplishment for the Committee and the Tweed community as a whole. “We are so pleased to see the steps the Twin Towns Uniting Church have made towards becoming more dementia-friendly. It all helps towards building a community where people with dementia feel understood, engaged, included and valued,” Mr Vannucci said. “It is inspiring to see the concept of dementiafriendly communities taking shape. We would like to encourage other organisations interested in taking steps toward becoming more dementia-friendly to make contact.” For more information and a toolkit with tips on how you can make your organisation more dementia-friendly, visit dementiafriendly.org. au or contact the Alzheimer’s Australia NSW Tweed Heads office on 07 5523 0731.

VOTING IS now open for the 2017 Primary Health Care Community Choice Award and Tweed residents are being urged to vote for an impressive lineup of community health initiatives. The North Coast is home to an eclectic range of health services, from mental health initiatives and Indigenous support, to allied health and cancer screening collaboratives. Good health care comes from more than just primary health, which is why North Coast Primary Health Network’s (NCPHN) Primary Health Care Excellence Awards invited submissions from all in 2017. The 2017 Primary Health Care Excellence Awards welcomed submissions from individuals and programs from both primary and social care. The inclusion of community organisations makes this a truly unique celebration of excellence within Australia. Finalists in the four categories: Integration & Partnership, Innovation, Improving Health Care Access and Promoting Healthy Living, were selected by 20 judges made up of community members, academics and health professionals. These 12 Finalists have been notified and include: The Buttery’s Crystal Methamphetamine Project, a Struggling after Suicide Attempt program, and an Aboriginal Women’s Heart Disease Awareness program. The Community Choice Finalists are: - Lismore Helping Hands for empowering the Lismore community to seek and offer

help following the March 2017 major flood - Byron Bay Community Association for their quick and innovative response to the needs of the elderly and homeless community - NNSW Health Literacy Project for providing consumer health information that is easily understood and supports people’s increased knowledge - Northern Rivers Vaccination Supporters (NRVS) for working to improve vaccination rates in the North Coast Who receives the 2017 Community Choice Award is now up to the community via an online vote. “We are asking that the recipient of the 2017 Community Choice Award be determined by the people that use the services and others like it on the North Coast,” NCPHN Chief Executive Vahid Saberi said. “This will help us determine the kinds of services our communities want. “We want people to view the two-minute videos online, vote for their favourite, and share these videos with their friends and family to help spread the word of the wonderful work being done in the North Coast.” The four finalist videos can be viewed at www.ncphn.org.au/excellence/communitychoice Voting is open now and closes on Monday, September 4. The recipient of the 2017 Community Choice Award will be announced at the 2017 Primary Health Care Excellence Awards, held on Thursday, September 7.

Bowls Notes STATE PENNANT Play-Offs, the pinnacle of Pennant competition, conducted in the Ettalong Beach precinct, certainly proved to be most successful for the Tweed Byron ladies. Over the years since the Tweed Byron District formation in 1988 state supremacy has eluded teams that have qualified to participate at this level. 2017 was the year for a change and,indeed, change there was, thanks to the might of the Cabarita Beach women who scooped the pool to be victorious in winning the State Grade 3 Pennant Flag. At Bateau Bay, the Caba girls swept all before them in their sectional games against Castle Hill, Cooma and Taree West with solid margins. Next step, the semi-final against Lemon Tree Passage, and the ladies toughed out a hard game to come out on top four points to one. The final against Leeton saw the side sweep to victory 45-29 to claim the State Grade 3 Flag. Congratulations to the Cabarita Beach Grade 3 Pennant side who now go down in history as the first ever Tweed Byron pennant side to win a State Flag. All hail the Cabarita Beach ladies!

with Judy Tuckey Over at Canton Bay Pottsville’s Grade 2 side battled tough competition in their sectional games. Whilst succeeding in winning against Double Bay, South West Rocks and East Maitland with overall points, the girls were taken out of the equation by a very strong Merrylands side who went on to win the section. A gallant performance from the Pottsville ladies is to be commended. Meanwhile, on the home front clubs are still catching up on their own championships. The Triples final at Pottsville saw Alana Sharp, Carol Smith and Nancye Gleeson engage in a great duel with Marie Comerford, George Moore and Judy Ahearn. Team Sharp grabbed the early lead and were quick to haul in a 19-4 lead. However, a super fight back by Comerford and Co reduced their deficit to 19-18 down with one end to go. Playing hard, team Comerford collected the one shot needed to draw the game and force an extra end. In a nail biting finale, team Sharp snatched the precious one shot to claim victory. Whilst still at Potty, congratulations to very new bowler, Sue Lawrance, who won the 2017 Novice Singles. Way to go, Sue.

High Performance Centre at Casuarina to the waves Expansion Towards Olympics Tappedwithin Terry ‘Tappa’ Teece FUTURE AUSTRALIAN OLYMPIC surf stars received another massive boost today as the Hurley Surfing Australia High Performance Centre (HPC) gets set to take on a whole new look and feel in 2018 after the first sod of soil was turned in a major expansion project thanks to both Federal and State funding grants. Construction begins this week, and the six million dollar expansion will include a 100 seat auditorium, bigger and

better AIS (Australian Institute of Sport) Aerial Surf Skate Training facilities, accommodation rooms, larger coaching and treatment rooms, dining and kitchen areas, and office space for the entire Surfing Australia staff. All these new facilities will allow for a full blooded Olympic Campaign heading towards the 2020 games in Japan. Surfing Australia CEO Andrew Stark said the expansion of the HPC would only serve as an even better tool for future Australian surfing success on the world stage. “This is another fantastic step for Surfing in this country that is perfectly timed with the Olympic campaign for Japan 2020. The current HPC has been an outstanding success and the new expanded facility will only grow on that success into the future. We are incredibly proud of the announcement today and the amazing legacy it will provide to surfing and also the local community. We sincerely thank the Federal and state government for their support to make this dream come true.” The expansion project was made possible by the Australian Government’s investment of $2.536 million in funding through the Building Better Regions Fund and the New South Wales Government represented by Sport and Recreation within the Office of Sport who funded $3 million

for the expansion. The new facility will be four times the size of the current HPC and will be opened in mid 2018. In more exciting news the centre becomes an Australian Olympic Committee (AOC) Recognised Training Facility, something AOC CEO Matt Carroll is extremely proud of. “This exceptional new facility is a very exciting development for Australian surfing and the prospects of those athletes that will be a part of the Australian Olympic Team in years to come,” said Carroll. “We are certain that the facility, along with Bede’s expert guidance, will help nurture our already talented athletes into genuine medal contenders for Tokyo 2020 and beyond.” The HPC will provide elite Australian surfers and their coaches with the opportunity to practice and train in a controlled, world class environment, pushing boundaries and ultimately defining the future of the sport at an Olympic and World Tour level, something Surfing Australia Elite Program Manager Bede Durbidge couldn’t be happier about.

THE CASUARINA women’s team has earned a spot in the division one final after a big win against top of the ladder Waratahs. Casuarina, who finished second this year, came out to play and smashed the Waratahs out of the park with a 5/2 win. The Waratahs appeared to be disinterested in the game and had a lack of determination. Both Brooke Hawkey and Keely Murray scored a double for Casuarina with the other goal going to Jessica Reid. Jessica was a standout in the midfield, dominating the Waratahs. Murwillumbah will play the Waratahs this Saturday, September 2 for a spot in the grand final after a 1/1 draw against Kingscliff. Murwillumbah, who placed third this year came out strong against fourth placed Kingscliff who scored first after holding off an attacking raid and getting a run away. Kingscliff went to half-time 1/0. A goal by Kellie Roatz for Murwillumbah in the second half equalised the scores 1/1. Kingscliff stepped up the tempo in the second half and were rewarded with several short corners but they all went wide leaving the scores locked 1/1 at full-time. The competition rules state that if there is a draw in the semi-finals, the team that finished higher during the season is declared the winner and thus Murwillumbah has progressed to a semi-final showdown against the Waratahs this weekend. The men’s Waratahs team had more luck than the women’s, managing to just get over the top of Casuarina 1/0 and booking a

place in the grand final. This was a very close game with both teams having outstanding defence which limited the scoring opportunities with no goals scored in the first half. Tim Willis pounced on a loose ball from Casuarina in the second half and smashed the ball past the Casuarina keeper to give his team the lead and the win 1/0. Casuarina’s best players were Adam Godowski and Oliver Conroy in the midfield who continually put the Waratah’s defence in doubt. The Waratah’s best was no doubt the only goal scorer for the match Tim Willis. In the other men’s semi-final, Murwillumbah won 3/1 in a relatively evenly contested game against Kingscliff. Kingscliff scored first which then seemed to get Murwillumbah into the game. A double to Brandon Iwanuscha put his side in front and the sealer came with Jamie Barrett to finish off Kingscliff’s season. Kingscliff’s best players on the day were Jonny Godship and Andrew Ridgeway. Semi Finals Both the men’s and women’s semi finals will be held in Murwillumbah this weekend. Division One Women’s: Waratah Falcons vs Murwillumbah 1.00pm Division One Men’s: Casuarina vs Murwillumbah 2.45pm Division Two Women’s: Murwillumbah vs Kingscliff 4.30pm Men’s: Casuarina vs Waratahs 1.00pm Division Three Women’s: Mullumbimby v Murwillumbah 2.45pm

Cudgen to host NRRRL finals this weekend FINALS HOPES are still alive for Cudgen, who will host this weekend’s NRRRL semi-finals, with the winners progressing to the grand final in Ballina on Sunday, September 10. Cudgen lost their major semi-final against the Ballina Seagulls in Ballina on Sunday, August 27, going down 20 to 28 in a close match. The Hornets will play Marist Brothers at the Cudgen Leagues Club this Sunday, September 3 at 2.45pm. The Tweed Coast Raiders have bowed out of the finals, with the first grade team losing their elimination semi-final 12 to 24 against Marist Brothers. Marist Brother’s centre Chris King scored a screamer, intercepting a loose Raiders ball close to their line and sprinting 100m to grab a four pointer.

The Cudgen reserve grade team also have a chance to make the grand final, and will need to beat a strong Mustangs team who narrowly beat Casino in their semi-final last Sunday in Lismore. The winners of this weekend’s reserve grade semi-final will go on to play Marist Brothers in the grand final. In the under 18s the Ballina Seagulls have booked a place in the grand final, with Marist Brothers and Casino playing for a finals showdown this weekend. The ladies Mustangs team will take on Byron Bay for a chance to play against Marist Brothers in the grand final. Games begin at 10.15am at the Cudgen Leagues Club with the ladies league tag up first, followed by the under 18s at 11.30am, reserve grade at 1pm and first grade 2.45pm.

Cudgen junior named in talent program

Cudgen Headland SLSC Keith Kennedy WE RECORD the passing of longstanding member Don Reid who was laid to rest on his 76th birthday last Friday. On his appointment to the science department at Kingscliff High, Don joined the Cudgen in the 1990-1991 season, having previously been a member of Nambucca Surf Club. He was awarded the National 15 years Patrol Certificate in 1995-1996 and served on our Board of Directors from 1994-1995, when he was the Vice-Chairman and Club Water Captain. He served a total of six terms as a Director. He organised the club workforce for the 1994 and 1995 NSW Titles and also the 2002 NSW Country Junior and Senior Championships. On retiring from active duties he became a Gold Card Member. The Cudgen Coldies had a successful carnival last Sunday with a large attendance of members and visitors who enjoyed the swim and post carnival lunch and refreshment. The coldies were successful in regaining the Blue Swimmer Crab Shield (22 points), the Southport Marlins (8), Tweed Dolphins (3) and the Nerangatangs (2). The Australian Winter Swim Championships will be held at the Southport

Pool on September 10. The Coldies have entered teams in almost all relays and individual 50m events which include the Open 10 person relay and the two nominated time relays. A Bronze Medallion course will be run during the coming school holidays in September. The juniors will have proficiency tests at the Kingscliff Pool on Sunday the 10th and 17th of September.

ONE OF Cudgen Headland SLSC’s promising young athletes Lily O’Sullivan has been selected to participate in a three-day training program at Sydney’s Northern Beaches in early October. The program aims to introduce a group of 44 of the state’s most promising water athletes aged between 12 and 14 to a high performance environment. Surf Life Saving NSW confirmed the list of selected athletes on Tuesday in what was a highly competitive process with 120 athletes competing for spots. The Junior Development Program is Surf Life Saving’s premiere talent development opportunity for young competitors who have shown promise in any of the water events that feature at a surf sport event. Many of the young athletes chosen for this program already boast impressive resumes with Country and NSW medalists counted among their number.

NSW Surf Sports Manager Rob Pidgeon is impressed by the standard of these emerging athletes. “I would like to congratulate all these young competitors on their selection for this program,” he said. “The aim of the program has always been to create an opportunity for these young athletes to learn new skills and techniques in an environment where they can work with their peers. There is no limit to how far they can go. “For us it is important to establish a pathway from talented junior through to the senior level, and we’ve been incredibly lucky to have NSW Coach Jim Walker heavily involved in the program.” Many past participants have used this program as the first stepping stone to higher representative honours including competing for Australia on the world stage, and this year’s group will be hoping to add their name to this illustrious honour board.

Research shows that incorrect jaw development and crooked teeth are evident in children from as young as the age of 5. The causes of this can be the effects of the poor muscle habits of our lips, cheeks and tongues. Correction of these habits allows our jaws to develop correctly and our teeth to align

naturally into the correct position. Traditionally, children need to wait until all their adult teeth have erupted before commencing treatment to straighten teeth. Myobrace allows treatment to commence from as early as the age of 5. The Myobrace system works to actively change our muscle habits by wearing

a removable appliance that is worn for 1-2 hours per day and overnight whilst sleeping, as well as completing a series of activities over the course of treatment. At Smile Street we offer Myobrace Consultation for FREE! Book in to see how Myobrace can help you!
