Desperate times for local youths resorting to crime DESPERATE LOCAL teenagers are resorting to crime across the Tweed following a recent hold-up at Foodworks Murwillumbah on Thursday, December 15. The 16-year-old teenager, who has since been arrested by Tweed Police, allegedly used a knife to demand cash and cigarettes from a Foodworks staff member before running up Brisbane Street. Witnesses told The Weekly the boy was at the register making his demands while customers queued behind him. “The whole thing took a few seconds and he was gone,” one witness, who did not want to be named, said. “It’s just sad to think these kids are so desperate that they’re resorting to robbery or holding up a local shop – it’s sad and dangerous at the same time.” Other locals took to social media with their comments and concerns with suggestions including “public flogging”. “How sad for the checkout girl. He’ll get a slap on the wrist and rehab, which is good. She was facing a stabbing. Who’s the victim?” asked Wallaby Bob. “How sad, he must have been so desperate,” Pamela Pearce Ogle commented. CCTV footage (image below) of the robbery was released to the media during a police appeal for witnesses. The footage showed the teenager wearing a red hooded jacket, white cap and sunglasses approach a 16-year-old female Foodworks staff member armed with a knife.

The female staff member handed over cash and cigarettes whilst shoppers seemed to be oblivious to the robbery. Police closed Brisbane Street for several hours following the hold-up. The robbery follows a separate incident in which a man allegedly held scissors to a woman and demanded that she withdraw cash from an ATM in Kingscliff on Wednesday, December 14. Police said they are investigating what happened after a 44-year-old woman was approached on Pearl St at about 5.15pm. The man, described as being Caucasian in appearance, about 173cm tall with a chubby build, light-brown short hair and wearing a white T-shirt and coloured shorts, was allegedly armed with a pair of scissors and threatened the woman. Police said he demanded she withdraw cash as he held scissors at her waist. The woman attempted to run and the armed man pursued. Police said when two men came to the aid of the woman from a nearby bank, the armed man ran from the area. Police are urging anyone with information, around both the above mentioned crimes, to call Tweed Heads Police Station on (07) 5536 0999 or Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000 or use the Crime Stoppers online reporting page: https://nsw. crimestoppers.com.au/

Business Tax Advisers

Hospital staff project helps streamline emergencies TWO TWEED HOSPITAL employees, Shirley Walker and Fran Hofstee were recently recognised at a ceremony celebrating the graduation of 31 participants from the NSW Agency for Clinical Innovation’s (ACI) Centre for Healthcare Redesign (CHR) Diploma Program. Their project ‘Emergency Surgery: Why the Wait?’ aimed to streamline and improve the surgical journey of emergency surgery patients. Implemented this year at The Tweed Hospital, the solutions included education for clinical staff and patients around the different emergency surgery categories, as well as implementing new care pathways for patients requiring emergency surgery. Some of the key goals of the project were to reduce delays to theatre, reduce pre-operative and post-operative length of stay, and improve patient experience. NSW Health Minister Jillian Skinner awarded participants with their diplomas at the ceremony and praised their commitment to supporting innovation and improvement in their services. “As a system, we are continuously exploring the latest innovations in healthcare and service delivery to ensure that every patient in NSW receives best practice, timely care,” she said. “The dedication and passion these staff members have for improving patient care in their facilities is an outstanding example of the committed people we have working across NSW Health and I commend them on their successes.”

The ACI Centre for Healthcare Redesign Diploma Program is an intensive 20-week course which provides knowledge and training in project management, clinical redesign and change management to build the capability of healthcare staff in NSW. Graduates of the program are awarded an accredited Diploma of Project Management through a partnership with the University of Tasmania.

Light rail would bring jobs

Yes Julian, I think you are right they say: “Tweed rite for the future” what future? There will be little if our State Members get off their backsides and get our rail back, as all the little townships are going backward, the local stores are closing and we need light rail to bring back growth. A lot of money from real estate sales in the Tweed has given the State Government a black surplus so why can’t they put some back or sue the people who vandalised the rail bridges on government property to help pay for it. Or get people on the dole to work on there, must be plenty of them out there looking for work. Just think four light rail trains a day would do for the Tweed then we may have a future. Gordon Lee, Tweed Heads

Black Rocks not suitable for Men’s Shed

Sarah Harding (Shed Members’ Health is Going Backwards, TVW Dec 15 2016) is obviously as unaware, as are many others in the community, that the Men’s Shed have options available to them for a permanent shed in a much more suitable location than Black Rocks. A permanent facility will avoid a huge waste of public money, avoid risks of harm to our precious endangered species, resolve community upset, and deliver a far better outcome for the Shed. There would be less risk of vandalism, improved safety, superior facilities for community integration and social inclusion and better access at other sites. Barry Sheppard Oval is available for a permanent shed. Alternately, an application can be lodged for Lot 3 Centennial Drive, which was the men’s preferred option (by almost unanimous vote in 2014). Several members have urged the committee to apply formally for that site, and Council’s CEO and Crown Lands have also advised

them to apply for it in the manner recommended by the Australian Men’s Shed Association. They can also place a general application for a suitable site to NSW Crown Lands under the Memorandum of Understanding with the Australian Men’s Shed Association. A DA for a suitable permanent site could be fast tracked and approved quite quickly, resulting in major savings of public money and major improvements to community harmony. There has been some cross-over, sadly, between lobbying for a Men’s Shed site and lobbying to keep the Black Rocks Sports Field open, and this has caused confusion. The two issues should be separate, because Black Rocks is not a suitable site for a Men’s Shed - quite apart from environmental concerns. It is too isolated and presents major security risks. It does not serve the objectives of Men’s Sheds to facilitate social and community integration. Several members are very unhappy with the site and feel proceeding there will mean they can no longer participate in the Shed. Some have already dropped out because they are unhappy with the choice of site and the social division being caused. Council is doing what is right by investigating to find the best solution for the men, the koalas and the community. It’s unfortunate that the previous council made an error of judgment that resulted in the current sad situation, but there are available sites for the Shed and I am advised Council and Mr Geoff Provest, MP, are working to identify the most suitable available option and advance plans as quickly as possible. It would be helpful to all if the Men’s Shed would co-operate fully with that endeavour. Lorraine Cobcroft, Pottsville

Reason will fix wealth gap

Malcolm Turnbull is turning his back on the human exceptional ability with reason when he says according to TSMH (16/11/16) the ABC “should take its share of the blame for distracting people from the government’s focus on economic growth.” Hasn’t he noticed that the social and environment are deteriorating? The economics editor of TSMH, Ross Gittens, wrote in 2013 of his disappointment, as an Australian, with the increase in the wealth gap from 1980 onwards. This increasing wealth gap is part of social deterioration. I won’t even mention the environment. You’d have to be unconscious to not

notice its deterioration. Years ago, it was generally accepted that, despite the procrastination, for sustainability to occur the social, economic and environment needed to be in balance. It opened a huge can of worms for it was screamingly obvious that Western culture was out-of-balance with its excessive dependence on the economic. Thus, the procrastination. When reason enters the picture, rather than emotional and egoistic attachment to materiality, it becomes obvious that more money must pass from the economic to the social and environment. This is for balance; for sustainability, to occur. Perhaps it is asking too much that human ability with reason be jump-started here. Kurt Vonnegut in Sirens of Titan, published in 1952, and with benefit of anthropological studies, had already noted, “… culture isn’t a rational invention.” The ABC has probably been caught naughtily discussing alternatives to the economic obsession. Geoff Dawe, Byrrill Creek

Women’s service not a victim

I am appalled by the manner in which TVWS has been portrayed as the innocent victim. From all the articles I have read, as a woman I have a very great interest in Domestic Violence services, there is much rhetoric regarding the financial position of TVWS, services they provided and how they were delivering said services. According to the reports in Tweed Daily news, your own paper, ABC News, The Echo all portray On Track Community Programs as the aggressor. These same media entities also state National Party MPs were responsible for the closure of TVWS. These claims are false and misleading. It is time Tweed Valley Women’s Service came clean about why they lost the contract to provide domestic violence services and why they went into voluntary liquidation. I understand there are legal issues still being sorted out with regard to this matter. Is The Tweed Valley Weekly able to grasp the facts and print them? Here are a few facts: • TVWS was in breach of the contract they had with OTCP. • TVWS failed to provide critical services in Ballina. • TVWS failed to deal with a number of ongoing breaches. • TVWS filed for voluntary liquidation. • OTCP had no choice but to

withdraw the funding given the serious complaints they received emergency services and other domestic violence agencies. • TVWS filed for the company to be wound up. What the heck did TVWS think they were doing, they were answerable to OTCP who was answerable to the Department of Family Services. TVWS had a specific contract to deliver a specific service and yet they failed to deliver the very services their contract demanded or were in breach of their contract. As for Justine Elliot what sort of Patron was she. If she was so concerned she would have been hands on about sorting out the contractual breaches, provision of critical services in Ballina. OTCP, as the primary contractor were responsible for the funding provided by the Department of Family Services. We should take time to reflect on the fact money distributed by State or Federal Government Departments is our money, we the taxpayers and I want accountability. TVWS did not do the right thing, when they were caught, pointed the finger at other, did not fess up and take responsibility for their actions, then applied to have TVWS wound up. Why haven’t the right questions been asked of those who ran TVWS, what breaches of contract hadn’t been remedied, why didn’t they provide critical services in Ballina. Let’s face the cold hard truth Tweed Valley Women’s Service did not do the right thing and have suffered the consequences. So I will now get of my high horse and simply say, those who do the wrong thing usually get caught and suffer the consequences. If these women who are so determined put their energies to good use by speaking with OTCP then their efforts would have meaning. Majella Miller, Tweed Heads

Let’s talk at the round-table

Now down to the nitty gritty of community engagement – the plain English, the discussion, the listening and the feedback. Feedback is really important. It confirms to participants that they have been heard, that their ideas have been considered, and their input has not just disappeared into another government black hole. There is no engagement without feedback. The key to success will be that all aspects of a proposal are understood by those offering their input. Plain English is fundamental

to the effectiveness of consultation. Most proposals have technical and legal components. A plain English specialist would reduce these and any other complexities to understandable language. Residents will be good at common sense and applying their life experience to tasks. They are not much interested in being bogged down in legalese and jargon. Council professionals know the upside and downside of proposals and should put both these on the table. There’s been a tendency for them to talk upside and let us try to work out the downside. People will respect the honesty of full disclosure. Distrust will be created if they have to guess at what has not been disclosed. Engaging in one-on-one sales jobs with residents is unacceptable. People deserve better than this. If it continues the cycle of distrust will prevail. Council professionals will be able to identify those residents most directly affected by the issue to be discussed. These residents should receive a direct invitation to participate. Their invitation should include a plain English outline of the topic under consideration. This outline can also be available on the web site, in the Link and provided to any media outlet prepared to publish the information. Any Tweed Shire resident can register to participate. The round-table, consensusdriven format will reduce the chance of the community’s input being replaced by some individual’s thought bubble or by a special interest group’s self-serving demands. The “we know what’s best for you” mindset not unknown among bureaucracies and elected representatives will be exposed for what it is – an elitist position that fails to recognize the potential value of the contribution by ratepayers. So, let’s get a round table and talk. We can put our future back into our hands. Ron Cooper, Kingscliff

Men’s Shed should remain

The issue of the Pottsvile Men’s Shed has been gong on far too long, it has taken up too much valuable Council time. Let the Men’s Shed remain in where they are until such time as a centrally located permanent site can be established,and leave the Koalas in peace. Koalas are a threatened species in this area and should be cared for not disturbed or harassed Frank Ball

Since 2006 Mt St Patrick College has ranked in the top 200 schools 10 times. “The entire College community is ecstatic with our HSC results,” Mr Clohesy said. “Through hard work and determination from staff, students and parents, our students managed to achieve 98 band 6 results placing each of these students in the top 10 per cent for that subject. “In addition, the College was ranked 77 overall in the State for HSC results and our English results ranked 7th in the state.” Among the top achievers were Katie Jones who received the highest ATAR of 99.15 which placed her in the top 1 per cent of the State and another 14 students received an ATAR above 90. Katie Jones received a perfect mark of 100 per cent in Extension I English and was awarded first place in the state.

These subjects included Extension 1 English 50/50, Studies of Religion 1 47/50, Legal Studies 93, Business Studies 93, Advanced English 97, Drama 96, Community and Family Studies 95. Mr Clohesy said there were many outstanding academic achievements this year, but he also wanted to pay tribute to all the year 12 students. “While there are a host of other exceptional results I could highlight, I would like to pay tribute to all of our Year 12 class of 2016 for their hard work and commitment to their school,” he said. “We are proud of every one of them for the example they Josh Northeast have provided to the rest of the student population. “2016, my first as the Principal of Mt St Patrick College,

has been a wonderful year for the school in many areas. “While academic success is important and should be celebrated, the effort made by the students in all areas of school life are what I am most proud of. “Students spent countless hours devoting their talents to the performing arts and on the sporting field. “They served their community by generously donating time and money to many worthy causes both here and overseas. “The students at Mt St Patrick College embrace the values we hold dear as a Catholic school to ensure the College is a place that is inclusive, accepts and celebrates diversity and has a culture that supports them being the best they can be in all they do. “I am very appreciative of the manner in which the staff, students, parents and wider Murwillumbah community have accepted me into the college and I look forward with enthusiasm to the opportunities that await us in 2017.”

THE LEGAL LIGHT! Santa takes a break after “hectic” Christmas TWEED RESIDENTS were “flat out” in the lead up to Christmas this year with renewed levels of optimism from local business owners across the region. Among those working hard to meet their customers demands was the jolly man himself Santa Claus who took some time out at Country Style Barber Murwillumbah to get a trim and chat to fans.

Why it’s OK to sue your own family or friends for injuries

“It’s been a big one this year,” he said. “Santa was in demand a lot across the Tweed and it’s been great spreading the Christmas joy to so many people young and old.” Santa said it was nice to finally have a break before he has to start preparations for next year. “I couldn’t run the reindeer this year, so I had to settle for my modified scooter, which worked a treat.”

The parents of a baby girl successfully sued the girl’s grandmother for dropping her, an incident that caused the baby severe head injuries. A son sued his father after he lost the tip of a finger unloading a boat from a trailer when he was operating under his father’s instructions. A girl chasing her girlfriend at school ran into a glass door the girlfriend had slammed shut in front her. She was injured and sued her girlfriend. Litigation expert Maurie Stack OAM, chairman of Stacks Law Firm, said suing someone in your own family or a close friend doesn’t mean there are any bad feelings.

“The family isn’t necessarily at war or even upset with each other. If someone is injured due to the negligence of others and they are covered by an insurance policy, then they are entitled to make a claim, and should do so to recover some of the costs of treatment from the insurance company. “After all, we pay the insurance premiums to protect us from loss, not to make money for the insurer. The cost of treatment can be very expensive. The injured person may be off work for some time and might be able to claim for loss of income.” Mr Stack said it’s important to consult an expert in compensation law if you are injured at home, work or in public because you might have the right to financial help to meet your costs.

Please “hold my hand” campaign starts THAT’S THE key message for parents holidaying in the Tweed this coming festive season. Tweed Shire Council has partnered with the Little Blue Dinosaur Foundation to promote road safety for young families holidaying on the Tweed Coast, particularly at Kingscliff and Hastings Point where ‘Holiday Time: Slow Down, Kids Around’ signs have been erected. The foundation was set up by Michelle and David McLaughlin, whose young son Tom died in a pedestrian road accident while holidaying on the Central Coast in January 2014. While child road safety is always paramount in the Tweed, it’s important to understand that children are more at risk on our roads when they are holidaying. “It is sobering to hear that this time can, in fact, be particularly dangerous for our kids as they are in unfamiliar environments and can be over excited,” Mayor of Tweed, Councillor Katie Milne said. “This is a great initiative to remind our kids and their parents that we are not invincible just because we are having a wonderful holiday.”

The Little Blue Dinosaur Foundation stresses that adults should hold the hand of a child while crossing the road until they are 10 years of age. “I want to stress to the community, parents and carers that we must hold our children’s hands when on or near roadways until the age of 10, and closely supervise children until at least 12 because they can’t always identify safe places to cross the road and act inconsistently in the traffic environment,” Mrs McLaughlin said.

71963

“The law regarding injury compensation has had many changes in recent years, so it is vital to see a legal expert who has experience in fighting these sorts of cases.

Time for Santa to relax with some pampering at Country Style Barber in Murwillumbah

Jack Dhillon, 7, enjoyed a sweet with Santa

“Most of the time the insurance claims won’t get to court and long costly legal battles because they are settled out of court in a mediation process. The insurance companies usually fight hard not to have to pay compensation, so it’s important to have someone on your side who knows the ins and outs of the legal arguments.

Est. 1938

DRY CLEANING & LAUNDRY *

“For instance, normally family members who reside with you are not covered by the policy if they themselves are injured. But if they are outside the family home, then they might be eligible. “Compensation law is complex and it is well worth consulting a legal expert with experience in the field to see if it is possible to make a claim for an injury,” Mr Stack said.

“They weren’t suing the family member, but the insurance company. Most household and content insurance policies provide you with insurance cover if you negligently injure someone anywhere within Australia,” Mr Stack said.

Solar Bonus Ends This Year! Are You Ready Yet?

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

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

TWEED LOCAL and former Richmond Greens candidate Dawn Walker has been selected to be the Greens new MP in the NSW Parliament following the retirement of Jan Barham in early 2017. Mrs Walker (pictured) won an internal ballot that involved thousands of NSW Greens members and is now set to join the Upper House of the NSW Parliament. “I’m very humbled and excited to have been chosen to represent the NSW Greens through an amazing grassroots process involving thousands of Greens members,” Mrs Walker said. “I’m passionate and ready to stand up for the environment and communities right across NSW. “I will stand strong against Premier Mike Baird’s creeping privitisation agenda, defend our community services and push for the greater protection of our environment, as well advocating for urgent action to address climate change and an end to coal mining and fossil fuels. “I’m honoured to be replacing Jan Barham MP who has been a tireless campaigner for

NSW, especially the North Coast.” Mrs Barham said she was “delighted” that Mrs Walker will take her place. “I’m delighted that Dawn Walker has been selected to take my seat in the NSW Upper House,” she said. “I have worked closely with Dawn for years and know that she is a strong campaigner and that she stands up for nature and community with great passion and integrity. “Dawn will be a strong advocate for the north coast as well as serving the communities across the state.” Greens MP for Ballina Tamara Smith said Mrs Walker is the kind of person you can bank on. “She says what she means and she follows through on every endeavour she puts her considerable passion behind,” Mrs Smith said. “The NSW people and the parliament have gained a total asset of a human being and I know that the grit and determination she has shown us time and again as a representative of her community will flow on to benefit us all.” It is expected that Dawn will take her seat in the NSW Upper House in late February 2017 following an official notification to the NSW Governor General.

THE FIRST of four Connected Learning Centres (CLCs) will open in centres across NSW including one in Murwillumbah next year which is hoped to fill a void left behind by the Murwillumbah TAFE closure. According to the NSW Government, Connected Learning Centres are a new student-focussed, digitally-enabled, next generation learning environment for students in regional areas to better access a range of TAFE NSW services. It means students in Murwillumbah are no longer restricted to just the courses offered at their local campus. The new structure provides access to the suite of training offered across the entire TAFE NSW footprint. The new centres use virtual technology and are a part TAFE NSW’s landmark Building a TAFE NSW for the Future investment program to renew teaching and learning facilities and broaden its reach, so students get hands-on skills for jobs and employers get a job-ready workforce into the future. “Today’s students expect that training will reflect the information accessibility and immediacy of their connected lives,” said Deputy Premier and Minister for Skills John Barilaro. “TAFE NSW is responding by delivering training where, when and how students want and in settings that resemble real-world

work and social environments.” New courses and learning opportunities, a personalised and connected learning experience and better access to teachers both on and off site will give students greater accessibility, flexibility and mobility, “In the long term TAFE NSW’s innovative learning approaches will roll out across the state bringing training and jobs to regional areas. The establishment of a Connected Learning Centre in Murwillumbah ensures that the highest quality training and services are accessible and available to all regardless of location, background or personal circumstances,” said State member Thomas George MP said. The first four CLCs will be located in: Quirindi, Coonabarabran, Glen Innes and Tenterfield while a further eight are proposed for Corowa, Deniliquin, Grenfell, Murwillumbah, Scone, Singleton, Narrandera and Yamba.

structure and whether future job cuts were planned for the Tweed. Mr Cleland said the Fair Work Commission’s Essential Energy Workplace Determination 2016 has provided the business with greater flexibility to continue reforms in response to “changing customer expectations and a rapidly evolving energy sector”. “The growth of renewable energy, distributed generation and metering technology are some of the external drivers to ongoing reforms around how we work, our operating costs and our workforce size to ensure our business is sustainable and we can maintain downward pressure on network charges for customers,” Mr Cleland said. “The Workplace Determination decision includes the provision of involuntary redundancies up to a maximum of 600 to June 30, 2018, where Essential Energy determines that positions are no longer required. “The Fair Work Commission

Cleland is that there are no plans for sweeping redundancies aside from all but one role previously identified by the business as redeployees. “We have no immediate plans to implement the involuntary redundancy provisions, except for those employees previously identified by the business as redeployees (around 30),” he said. “This includes one Tweed Heads employee.” Mr Cleland also wanted to stress that the 600 involuntary redundancies by 2018 is a ceiling, “not a target, and involuntary redundancy will not be applied on a pro rata basis at individual depots and offices,” he said. Finally, there’s been some reporting about senior staff bonuses at Essential Energy receiving hefty bonus, Mr Cleland said Executive Officers are employed on individual, performancebased contracts that comprise a fixed remuneration. “And an annual ‘at risk’ payment made to those employees that met annual performance criteria set by

Energy salary reviews in 2015-16 and remuneration paid to senior executives reflected their responsibilities in containing increases in electricity network charges to CPI or below, and maintaining a safe and reliable electricity supply for customers in regional and rural NSW. “Following a 2.5 per cent average increase in July 2014, Executive officers’ remuneration was not increased in July 2015.” The Essential Energy board of directors awarded their acting chief a $114,000 bonus and paid $28.1 million in dividends to the NSW Government. The following senior roles received salaries in 2015-16 of: Acting Chief Executive Officer: $764,353 Chief Financial Officer: $357,876 Head of Network Services: $368,918 Head of Customer and Corporate Services: $337,706 Head of Safety, Human Resources and Environment: $331,250.

Young artists can also flex their creativity using one of the interactive apps on the iPads in the Margaret Olley Art Centre. “Visitors old and young can also share some of the magic of one of Australia’s most famous still life painters, by

TWEED RESIDENTS are calling for a solution to the Terranora Country Club, Bilambil, after the third fire inside the building was reported late in 2016. Tweed Heads Firefighters said on Tuesday, December 20, that thick smoke and a small fire had again been lit at the abandoned and now severely dilapidated building. The firefighters were on scene quickly to find smoke bellowing from the old main building of the club and crews got to work with hoselines. 468 Alpha Firefighters, wearing breathing apparatus, carried out a primary search as the building has been known to be used by squatters, fortunately the building was empty.

468 Firefighters were on scene for about two hours completing final extinguishment of the blaze. The cause of the fire is under investigation. Meanwhile, several residents posted on social media that Council should intervene at the iconic site and demolish the lot and clean it up. “I think our Council is not doing their job they should have had it cleaned up years ago,” Linda Scott said. Other residents said they were disappointed the club never found its feet again after Queensland legalised poker machines. YOUR THOUGHTS: What do you think should happen to the old club?

STORM SEASON HAS ARRIVED! Here we are in storm season yet again and we are seeing a significant number of our canine companions suffering from storm phobias. So what is “storm phobia”? Basically it is a disorder where there is a persistent and exaggerated fear of storms. Cats and dogs suffer from this phobia but we see the effects in dogs more often. Often the stimulus that brings on this fear in dogs can be rain, lightning, strong winds, thunder and changes in barometric pressure, which the dogs can feel before the storm hits. Owners who have dogs suffering from storm phobias notice their dogs becoming anxious sometimes hours before the storm arrives and if they are home can implement some measures to ease the dogs fear levels. Some signs that your pet is suffering from storm phobias include: • Pacing • Panting • Trembling • Excessive salivation • Hiding or remaining close to the owner • Destruction of property Behaviourists have studied this phobia in animals for many years and still the exact cause is unknown. Some factors may include: • Lack of exposure to storms early in their development • Unintentional reinforcement by owners • A genetic predisposition for reacting emotionally • A negative experience during a storm

So what can we do to help our beloved ones to get through this phobia without them causing injury to themselves? • Try to be home with your pet if possible. • Place your dog in a soundproof den or enclosure during the storm. This is their safe place. • Practice calming strategies before storm season. Show your dog that you are calm by blinking your eyes, yawning and show a soft smile. • Do not leave them outside during a thunderstorm. Always give them access to an inside place they can hide. There are many ‘over the counter’ products available to try such as thunderstorm jackets, pheromone sprays, diffusers or collars & homoeopathic anti-anxiety drops. If you have tried these products and have not been successful then we recommend owners bring their pet in for a consultation with a veterinarian, as they may need certain medications to help them become less anxious. Some dogs may never get over their fear but we can try to desensitise them to the storms. If you need further help please contact King Street Veterinary Hospital on 02 66724322.

The couple, who teach yoga locally, visited The Weekly recently to share their amazing story of love, loss and their eventual arrival in Murwillumbah on Christmas day 1990. “From about the age of 12, we were brought up in the seaside resort town of Mt Maunganui in NZ and met in our first year of high school,” Gopala said. “I asked Yogananda to come to the movies with me on my 16th birthday and by the time we were 17 I had asked Yogananda’s dad if we could get married - he said “no” but we went out and bought an engagement ring anyway.” Gopala said it was around this time that the couple started working for his parents in their bakery. “I was the assistant pastry cook and Yogananda was the shop assistant, working together has been a constant feature throughout our lives,” he said. “After a short time, our parents realised we were serious and allowed us to get married once we turned 18, in those days you had to get permission to get married if you were under 21 so on the 14th of January 1967 we were married. “On the surface, it may have seemed we were not suited as Yogananda was quiet and shy and I was the opposite, but when we talked about how we thought about life, relationships and children and how a marriage should be, we both thought the same. “When we look back we are amazed that at such a young age we spoke about these things in such depth, we didn’t feel as if we were young at the time.” Gopala said the couple had their daughter Samantha in March 1970 followed by a son Adam in August 1971, having a “pigeon pair” was their dream. “We shifted to Australia in May 1972, and lived in Sydney working at various jobs including having a record store and a coffee lounge together,” he said. “In 1977 our daughter Samantha was killed as she was crossing on a pedestrian crossing and in our grief and confusion we were drawn to the spiritual teachings of yoga which sustained us and became our life and a few years later we began teaching yoga and meditation and have continued to do so up to this time.” In 1988, the couple travelled overseas for six months with their son Adam and then travelled around Australia searching for a place to settle. “The strange thing is Yogananda had this feeling that we were going to end up living somewhere in Northern NSW even though we had never been here before, but time proved her right and we moved to Murwillumbah on Christmas 1990,” Gopala said. “Thanks to the support of so many people over the years we have been able to continue teaching yoga in Murwillumbah for the past 23 years and so many of our students and others have become close and dear friends. “We think Murwillumbah is such a nice town to live in with friendly and welcoming people.” Golapa said locals often ask them for secrets to a long and happy marriage. “We have to say that as long as we can remember we’ve both felt lucky to have each other,” they said. “It just seems like we were drawn to each other and have enjoyed being together since we were kids,” Gopala said. “If there has been a constant feature we would have to say being truthful, supportive and understanding under all situations are the special ingredients also a day never goes by when we fail to express our love for each other.” Wedding Day 1962

Casuarina Beach Rugby announces new Women’s Sevens side for 2017

THE CASUARINA Beach Rugby Union club will launch a Casuarina Beach Women’s Sevens Team for 2017, to play in the local Gold Coast competition as well as hosting local tournaments and events at the club. Star Women’s Sevens Gold Medallist Shannon Perry (pictured right) made a special appearance at the Casuarina Club on Wednesday, December 21, as a catalyst to announce the women’s side. Mrs Perry said she hoped to help recruit and attract local women wanting to play Sevens Rugby from all over the Tweed. The Weekly spoke with Casuarina Beach Rugby Head Coach Adam Leach, who is also an ex-Waratah player, to discuss the club’s future plans and growth. “We’re seeking to grow our Junior player base and embarking on launching a full Senior team to play in the Far North Coast Competition,” Mr Leach said. “On top of this we are also hoping to have our own Women’s Sevens Rugby team to play in the local Gold Coast Competition.” Mr Leach said Australian Rugby was looking to build on the success of the Women’s Sevens Team Gold Medal achievement at the Rio Olympics. “Our club hopes to get a women’s team together to provide a platform and opportunity for local girls wanting to play Rugby Sevens,” he said.

“We aim to get a team playing in the local Gold Coast competition as a pathway into higher representative teams and the chance to represent Australia.” The club is also attracting a lot of support from elite athletes eager to back the new Women’s Sevens side and Seniors. “Firstly, it’s great to see Shannon Perry come down and support the club and show her Gold Medal to the juniors,” Mr Leach said. “We also have Ben Gollings (Ex-England Sevens Captain), who has been appointed as the local Gold Coast Representative Sevens Coach, very keen to come down and help us get a Women’s Sevens team established. “Amongst our own coaching staff, we have ex-Brumbies and Reds forwards player Adam Wallace-Harrison as our forwards coach.” Mr Leach also reflected on where he sees the future of Union on the Tweed Coast growing and establishing a stronger presence. “There are lot of keen and very good Men and Women Rugby players and athletes in our local area, and the Far North Coast,” he said. “We hope to be a club to provide a platform and pathway for aspiring players to play 15’s and 7’s rugby, and also social players just wanting to play Rugby with their friends. “We want to be a great community and social based club for all players, coaches, and supporters within the community. “Our club is both performance and development of players, but also participation and enjoyment. “Hopefully the community will come down and enjoy the atmosphere and culture of Rugby both on and off the field.” To find out more email jackp@totaldatasolutions.com.au

Snorkel Turtle Tour at Cook Island among the best in Australia expert marine biologists to ensure their footprint remains undetected. “We only take a limited number of people on each tour, which is nine and we also ensure we have a marine biologist on board to ensure the marine life are protected,” he said. A 15-minute boat ride takes visitors along the Tweed Coast and some of the most beautiful beaches in Australia with possible encounters with dolphins or a whale along the way. Tim said Cook Island is famous for its large population of green turtles and the clown fish who are always happy to pose for photos. “Once at Cook Island visitors enjoy a mix of colourful hard and soft corals, tropical fish and of course the turtles,” he said.

ocal and international visitors are raving about the Snorkel Turtle Tour at Cook Island off the coast of Fingal Head and there’s plans to implement an environmental conservation program into the tour during 2017. The Snorkelling Tour is organised by Kingscliff tour operator and founder of Watersports Guru Tim Jack Adams. Tim said the tour has been running for almost six years and offers one of the best snorkelling experiences on both the Tweed and Gold Coasts. The tour will be adding an “Adopt a Turtle”

n e p O w o N

program in conjunction with the University of Tasmania to allow visitors the chance to contribute to the sustainability of the Green Sea Turtle population. “We recently had some really positive press coverage on our tour and it’s prompted a lot of interested travellers,” he said. “We’re also seeing a lot of interest from international travellers who have praised the tour as one of the best snorkelling experiences in Australia.” Tim said the opportunity to see turtles and other marine life up close is a huge privilege off the Tweed Coast and the company use

“And if you have never tried it before, no worries - we have a qualified instructor to show you the way.” Snorkelling with the turtles at Cook Island is one of the few places in Australia that can almost guarantee you will get up close to not just one but many turtles off the island. “This incredible tour will leave you in awe of the Tweed’s natural beauty and you will be talking about it for days on end,” Tim said.

“Visitors can enjoy some school holiday arts and entertainment, with plenty for the kids to do, while picking up some last-minute Christmas gifts with a very local flavour,” Gallery Director Susi Muddiman said. “Four new exhibitions have been launched at the Gallery, including The Phantom Art Show inspired by the ageless comicbook hero and the 1,2, 3: Count the Collection exhibition designed especially for kids. Young artists can also flex their creativity using one of the interactive apps on the iPads in the Margaret Olley Art Centre. “Visitors old and young can also share some of the magic of one of Australia’s most famous still life painters, by choosing a Margaret Olley-inspired jigsaw puzzle, memory game or card set as a Christmas gift.” The Gallery Shop has a terrific range of regionally sourced pieces by local artisans, as well as children’s gifts and art books. While the Gallery will be closed on Christmas Day, it will otherwise be open for its regular opening hours – Wednesday to Sunday 10am to 5pm – throughout the festive period. “There’s more than ever for families to do within the stunning – and air-conditioned – Gallery during these holidays,” Ms Muddiman said. “Enjoy some of the region’s best culinary delights by dropping into the Gallery Café, which opens its doors at 9am each day the Gallery is open.” For more information on the Gallery’s program and events, please visit the website at www.artgallery.tweed.nsw.gov.au.

Lovable pair Maggie and Max looking for their forever home

are being encouraged to adopt a Tforever friend during the holidays which, according weed residents

to Friends of the Pound, is a perfect time for families to adopt a pet.

Pam Price, Vice President of Friends of the Pound said the holiday season is a time for family and togetherness and what better way to unite a family than around a loving dog or cat. “Celebrate the holidays this year by adopting your forever friend from Friends of the Pound,” she said. “Not only will it help local animals but the animals will bring endless joy and energy to your lives.” Friends of the Pound use local animal lovers to shelter pets before they’re adopted into forever homes. Seven-year-old Maltese crosses Maggie and Max were rescued from a property by Friends of the Pound when the elderly owner moved into aged care. “They were loved but very much overweight,” Pam said. “After a general health check Maggie, despite her weight, was seen to be active and otherwise in good health.

Creative workshops for children

“Max was found to have a thyroid deficiency which was responsible for his gross obesity and lack of activity – his little legs could hardly support his weight of nearly 13kg. “However, after being on corrective medication for a couple of months now he is a totally different dog. “He has lost 2kg, is becoming much more active and has a quality of life he hasn’t experienced for a while. “Max must remain on his medication (which is inexpensive) for the rest of his life and have six monthly blood tests to ensure his thyroid levels continue to be normal. “These are two delightful, affectionate little dogs who are devoted to each other so are looking for a forever home together. They are not demanding dogs, very easy going and get along well with other dogs both small and large. “Friends of the Pound are looking for the perfect home for these two little dogs.” To find out more about Maggie and Max or to discover more pets up for adoption phone Friends of the Pound on (07) 5524 8590 or visit 29 Greenway Drive, Tweed Heads South.

Local cane operator calls time on passionate career T

weed Valley cane farming identity Gary passion and something that I’ve loved doing for most Eglington has tried to retire since 2006, of my life.” but after putting another nine seasons under his Although Gary spent much of his time working the belt he’s positive that the end of 2016 is his final Tweed Valley, his skills also took him around Australia. “I did move away for a while in 2006, travelling around cane harvest. Gary, 65, has been planting and harvesting cane for land owners across the Tweed Valley since 1970 and has seen the industry change and evolve. “It certainly wasn’t as comfortable to plant and harvest back in the 70s,” he said. “But we still had the machinery minus the airconditioning and there’s a lot less breakdowns than today’s machines.” During his 43 years of cane operations, Gary said it’s been the mateship and lifelong friendships that has kept him coming back as well as an underlying passion for all things cane. “I’m very passionate about the Australian cane industry and that’s part of the reason I’ve kept going for so long,” he said. “But it’s also been the mateship and friends I’ve made along the way and people I respect and regard highly in this industry - they’ve all been a pleasure to work with.” Gary’s skills in cane operations are in high demand which is yet another reason he delayed his retirement. His knowledge of the cane varieties, planting and harvesting have become invaluable to Tweed cane farmers, who have made sure Gary’s been kept busy. “There’s always someone looking for an experienced cane operator,” he said. “Although, there’s a lot of blokes who have been doing it a lot longer than I have across the valley and they’re still going.” Looking back on Gary’s work he said he hardly ever thought about his pay cheque as a priority. “It was never just a pay cheque for me, it’s been a

and spent four seasons in Mackay,” he said. “But coming back to the Tweed always feels like I’ve come home - it’s where my wife Leeann and I belong.” Gary has also seen local cane operations change and he hopes the industry will remain robust for years to come. “We produce some of the best varieties of cane in the country here, although I just hope the industry doesn’t shrink anymore especially with new operators.” Gary said there’s been a small shift to new cane farm owners, who have little idea where to get started or how to turn a profit. “It’s not an easy job and often new owner/operators move in and can’t find their feet so they miss the season and it ultimately shrinks the cane harvest across the valley,” he said. “My hope is the cane industry across the Tweed remains strong and can support the future of operators. “It really is a young man’s game, but it takes the knowledge and understanding of the land to get a foot up and survive in this industry – I couldn’t just switch to wheat for example it would take a lot of time to make a change like that and to be profitable.” As Gary finishes out the 2016 season, what will he say when he gets the call to help out in 2017? “I’ve been asked that by a few people including my wife,” he said. “I can honestly say ‘I don’t know’, but I know if we go away travelling Australia for six months by the time I get back I might fly under the radar. “It all really depends on the circumstances, but this is the retirement Leeann and I have been waiting for.”

Tweed Valley Weekly Locals Supporting Locals

A year in review 2016 HAS been a big year for the Tweed with two elections, a new council, retirements, the passing of local icons, tragedies and stories that embody the spirit of the Tweed community.

The year began with the fallout from the cancellation of funding to the Tweed Valley Women’s Service by On Track Community Programs (OTCP), after the women’s service failed to provide walk-in domestic services at Ballina as per their contract. A campaign to reinstate funding was led by Women’s Watch and patron of the women’s service and Federal Member for Richmond Justine Elliot MP who launched a petition which to date has collected over 9,000 signatures. A recent story in The Weekly (December 8) in which CEO of OTCP Elaine De Vos called for the Women’s Service to end. There was outrage at the story from the community and in the following edition supporters of the service have vowed to fight on.

The Gold Coast Airport expansion commenced in April and there were concerns from the community around the possibility of a runway expansion. CEO of the Gold Coast Airport Marion Charlton reassured residents that this would not be the case. Another big airport story was contamination from poly-fluoroalkyl substances (PFAS). Samples taken near the fire training ground and the fire station exceeded the drinking water and recreational screening thresholds whilst samples at the airport boundary were below soil and groundwater guidelines and no PFAS were detected at Cobaki Broadwater.

One of the most reported stories of the year was the management of the Banora Point drains. The Weekly first broke the story on February 25 with Banora local John Sydenham calling on Tweed Shire Council to urgently clean up what he believed was an increasing environmental disaster unfolding in his local drains. The situation worsened with a mass fish die off that occurred in April. Tweed Shire Council reported that the reason for the fish death was a drop in oxygen levels and could have been due to a particularly hot March.

The story that received the most letters was the location of the Pottsville & District Men’s Shed at Black Rocks Sport Field. During the February council meeting Barry Longland received a petition of more than 100,000 signatures demanding revegetation of the Black Rocks Sports Field and permanent locking of the koala protection gates. More recently Mayor Katie Milne visited the Black Rocks site (September 8 edition) and told The Weekly a permanent location for Men’s Shed may have been found near Pottsville Primary School at Lot 3 Centennial Drive. In the following edition (September 15) Men’s Shed President Michael Ryan slammed suggestions the shed should be moved to Lot 3 Centennial Drive. At the council meeting that night the Men’s Shed was given approval to proceed, however, at the first meeting of the new council (November 17) the decision was deferred and there has been little to no progress with the new council.

Justine Elliot was re-elected to the seat of Richmond in the Federal election held in July. One of the biggest results from the Richmond electorate was the strong Greens results with Dawn Walker picking up around 20 per cent of the primary vote. However, Mrs Elliot was re-elected with the majority of votes and following a strong campaign The council election campaign opened in early August, but there was disappointment for Pryce Allsop who missed the deadline for his crucial paperwork.

The sad news came on August 19 that 88-year-old No High Rise candidate Ken Nicholson passed away and his death led to a postponement of the election. The news allowed Pryce Allsop a second chance and a strong campaign saw him elected to council. There were four other newcomers to council including now Deputy Mayor Chris Cherry, Ron Cooper, James Owen and Reece Byrnes. Both Mayor Katie Milne and Cr Warren Polglase were re-elected with Katie receiving the most votes. At the first meeting of the new council Mayor Milne was elected Mayor and Chris Cherry Deputy Mayor, the Tweed’s first all woman leadership team.

There were several rescues and a tragic death the occurred on Mount Warning recently. During the Easter weekend emergency services were kept busy including a 38-year-old male who was initially reported as being exhausted and was ridiculed by national media sources for wasting taxpayers money. The man was later found to be an army veteran, who did two tours for the Australian Defence Force in the Middle East and said he was crippled by a wave of “anxiety” when he reached the summit. There were further rescues on October 9 weekend with a warning to be prepared from rescuers. More recently US tourist Sam Beattie was killed by a lightning strike whilst camping on Mount Warning, which has again raised debate around climbing the iconic mountain.

A big election issue that saw Cr Ron Cooper elected was the building heights at Kingscliff. Ken Nicholson entered a verbal slug match with Council planners earlier in the year over what he believed to be a push towards increasing height limits on the Kingscliff foreshore, these claims were rejected on numerous occasions by Council. Later in the year Council won a national award for consultation on the draft Kingscliff locality plan, this was slammed by now Cr Ron Cooper. The plan was later rejected by Council at their July 28 meeting. Other big council stories included the push to save the Jack Evans Boat Harbour from further development and the withdrawal of support to a development application from AquaSplash. An application to develop the Round House Tavern site into a Coles Express Service station was rejected unanimously by the new council at the first meeting, much to the delight of locals.

The Big4 Holiday Park was denied twice this year by council to redevelop their waterslides due to multiple concerns from local residents. The owner is now set to take council to court over the refusal. A strong campaign and petition to save the Anchorage Islands Boardwalk was led by Richard Murray, there has been no decision to date on the future of the boardwalk.

The Tweed was lashed by heavy rain and flooding in early June, with more than 350mm of rain across the weekend and winds up to 90km per hour. The weather wreaked havoc on crops and farmers had concerns about the 2016 cane harvest. Several residents were unhappy with flood information.

Our biggest and perhaps saddest story of the year was the tragic death of Grant ‘Cookie’ Cook and the Mustangs triumph to win the grand final in honour of Cookie. The story rocked much of the Rugby League world and has resulted in lengthy fundraising campaigns to ensure the Cook family are taken care of.

Other tragic stories included the drowning of Ryan Martin who rescued a 10-year-old girl at Fingal Head in March. Dulguigan locals also made the shock discovery of the burnt body of Sabrina Bremer on August 18 under suspicious circumstances. There were plenty of other local news stories including some big developments coming online, big events such as the Banana Festival and Foodies Fest. From all the staff at The Weekly we would like to wish everyone a safe and happy 2017.

Twin Towns Sixty Years Young This year, 2017, marks the 60th anniversary of Twin Towns and at no time over the past six decades has the Club been in such great shape, in every possible way. Financially, aesthetically, in terms of the scope and diversity of its properties and the size of its membership, Twin Towns has dominated the Tweed club scene for decades and grown to become one of Australia’s pre-eminent clubs. With the main club Twin Towns, the RSL Sub-Branch, Club Banora, Twin Towns Juniors, Mantra Twin Towns Resort and 1st on Wharf pub, and the development of a new satellite club and state-of-the-art child care facility at the Cobaki Estate on the drawing board, the future could not be brighter for the Twin Towns organisation. Currently Twin Towns has more than 40,000 members and provides employment for 380 people. As well as being one of the Tweed’s biggest employers, the three Twin Towns’ clubs also provide a huge economic boost to the local business community year-round through their use of more than 150 private contractors working within food, hospitality, building and services industries, as well as Mantra Twin Towns Resort. One of the most important and rewarding aspects for members in the evolution of Twin Towns

over the past 60 years, says Board Chairman Michael Fraser, has been its history of giving. “Dating back to recordings of Twin Towns’ very first annual report for 1957 documented by our founding President, the late great Mick Winders, Twin Towns has never wavered from its responsibilities and commitment to give back to the community it served,” said Michael. “Under Mick Winders’ guidance and direction, here was a Club that had been in operation for less than six months and still finding its feet, yet its minimal profits were shared with what were considered at the time to be worthy community organisations,” he said. An extract from the first Twin Towns Annual Report for 19 July to 31 December 1957: “During the year, the Club made donations of £3055.0, £5.5.0 to the T.B. Sailors & Soldiers Appeal and £25 to the R.S.L. Christmas tree. Since the end of the financial year a donation of £50 has been made to the Murwillumbah and District School for Children, a very worthy cause. I feel that as funds permit, the Club should endeavour to make more donations to deserving charities in the district and show we are conscious of our responsibilities as a Club to the community generally.”

The legacy of Mick Winder’s statement has continued from these first early years, and never in the history of the Club has there been a year where local community organisations have not benefited from Twin Towns’ financial support. Over the past year alone, preschools, primary schools, surf club nippers, junior sports clubs, palliative care centres, aged care, programs for people with disabilities and youth centres, were just a few of the valuable community organisations that shared almost a million dollars in financial and in-kind support from Twin Towns.

club to be operational. Good natured shouts of ‘get a move on’ and ‘a man could die of thirst’ accompanied their efforts. Club membership began to increase – 28 jumping on board in the first month. By the end of the year, membership stood at 207. However, if members felt it was already plain sailing for the new club, Winders set the record straight in his first Annual Report. Winders was both terse and understanding, forcefully pushing the view that members needed to

Perhaps underlining the relaxed beach culture of the area, another initiative in the first year was the purchase of three pairs of scuffs for members entering the club barefoot. The member was required to pay a refundable deposit of 10/-1 for the privilege.

I DO, YOU DO, WE DO.

The history of Twin Towns has been well documented and during this 60th year, Club News will publish snippets from a collection of stories, manuscripts and annual reports from the past six decades. Pulling the first beers It was fitting that Winders and patron Alf Thomas should be the first to pull beers behind the bar on opening night – at 7.30pm on Friday 12 July 1957.

CLUBNEWS www.twintowns.com.au BOARD CHAIRMAN’S REPORT

I hope that all our members and stakeholders had a wonderful family Christmas together without incident and are now ready to face the New Year with gusto, determination and passion as all of us here at Twin Towns Clubs and Resorts intend to do. 2017 presents marvellous opportunities for all and Twin Towns Clubs and Resorts are certainly no different. Twin Town’s board of management have a strategic plan in place and along with our management team are determined to continue to follow this plan through to achieve the desired outcomes in the best interests of our members and our community to keep Twin Towns the No. 1 Club. Apart from the continuation of work in progress from 2016, the board and management will work to finalise our financials for year’s end, being 31 December, and prepare for our Annual Report and General Meeting on 16 May. The end of year result should follow the previous year’s annual trend providing members, through our directors and management team, with an excellent revenue base to build on members’ facilities and grow the business when other opportunities arise to advance

diversification strategies to ensure these world class facilities remain viable for future generations of members. Year to date we have an excellent EBITDA average (up to November) covering the group which is well above industry standard and a credit to operational management best practice skills. Twin Towns Clubs and Resorts are in a very strong financial position and with that I refer to the Clubs NSW census results that revealed that among the 1,348 NSW clubs in 2015, there were 880 small clubs (some 65% of the industry) earning less than $1 million in gaming revenue but still attracting 17,000 volunteers in total. These smaller clubs were less able than their larger cousins to leverage their operational scale to grow and invest, increasing their financial stability. Indeed, while the industry experienced modest improvements in financial viability between 2011- 2015, some 33% of clubs – most of them small clubs - showed signs of distress or serious distress. Some 65 clubs closed since the last census in 2011 and nearly all were small clubs. Just imagine the impact inflicted on communities by the closure of smaller clubs, especially in regional areas,

when you consider those 17,000 member volunteers who make up the essential fabric of much needed not-for-profit community social clubs. Twin Town’s internal clubs are supported by over 100 committee members who provide for social interaction and sporting activities for over 2,000 members just within our group. Twin Towns Clubs and Resorts board continue to look for opportunities to diversify and grow the business for the longterm future. The census shows that 109 clubs had formally expressed their intent to amalgamate for their survival since 2011, but almost three quarters of them did not follow through. Chairman of ClubsNSW Mr Peter Newell OAM suggested recently that regional clubs are resisting the one thing that may save them, which is of course amalgamation. Chairman Peter suggested that in many cases there are too many clubs in a given area and putting pride aside and with an ethic of common community good championed, many a community club may be saved with amalgamation preferably before one or more local clubs close. Naturally club closures restrict our communities by limiting facilities in a multitude of areas. Re-writing Twin Towns Constitution In July 2017, Twin Towns Clubs and Resorts celebrate 60 magnificent years of operation, the success of which is due to many factors such as strong, passionate, dedicated directors and management and great staff who take pride in the operations as a not for profit community club following strong governance and due diligence on behalf of members.

By continually abiding by a strong regulatory regime with best practice policies and understanding that directors are the caretakers of members’ assets and are responsible for providing for communities, we grow on opportunities and diversification to advance our cause. Our founding father Mr Mick Winders OAM with a great team supporting him, established this community Services Club in 1957 and drew up the basis of our current constitution. The board have found it necessary to change our constitution from time to time in accordance with regulatory changes to the Corporation Act and Registered Clubs Act with other changes deemed in the best interests of members. Naturally members are required to approve any recommended changes at a general meeting. Considering we have prodded and poked around this original constitution for the last 60 years, the board has taken the opportunity to completely re-draw and simplify the club’s constitution through our constitutional lawyers. I emphasise there is nothing sinister in the decision to bring our constitution in line with the 21st century so the basis of our original generic constitution and its principles will definitely remain. We have of course spoken at our Consultative Committee meetings to advise members of the rapidly changing world of digital technology and that for all concerned we need to get on board urgently. Members-only Portals for accessing all special member information integrated with membership cards giving access for shows, show-bands, bookings, dining

specials, menus, sporting options, general meeting literature, annual reports and constitutional references, are planned for the future, presenting huge member benefits and cost savings. Any slight amendments to modernise our constitution will be drawn to the attention of our members by providing a copy prior to our recommendation to approve the updated document at the May Annual General Meeting. The board have considered this work to re-draw our constitution way overdue. History for members Some years ago, the board contracted renowned historian Mr Garry Lester to write up a manuscript to keep the clubs history safe for future reference. Many of our original foundation members, life members and identifiable members through contribution, including architects, consultants, stakeholders and early management who were interviewed for this important historical archive to remember their legacy, are no longer with us. Yet, the recorded history remains. Obviously with the staggering growth of member services, the need to update these records periodically for future reference is critical. The Club News will feature snippets from this manuscript each month this year to celebrate 60 Years, to remind members of the visionary growth over the years of our great club. Meanwhile good health and have a fabulous 2017 and I look forward to catching up around our Clubs and Resorts. Michael Fraser

It’s called Oasis Pools; it’s just off the road so not easy to see but it’s a fantastic facility and by the way, it’s heated all year round. The title ‘Masters Swimming’ does not necessarily mean we are all Champions and fast in the pool. It is a Club affiliated with Masters Swimming Australia but most of us are just swimming for the enjoyment. The only by-law we have is that a member must be able to swim 50 metres unaided. There are a few members who compete and do very well, a few who challenge themselves in the water keeping fit with some club events, and a few plodders who are just there to keep active and join in the regular social fun. There are coaches on the pool deck who provide all the necessary

guidance and corrective advice to ensure we swim at our best, particularly those who attend swim meets.

We welcome and are always glad to receive new Members who like to stay active and have a bit of fun at the same time.

For those who like a bit of friendly competitive fun in the pool, we have regular events for members to enjoy. Some events include a 100-metre timed event, where you nominate a time and swim as close as possible to the time listed. You don’t have to be fast, just accurate.

So come and join us at the pool, have a cup of coffee. We will make sure you are well looked after and remember, you don’t have be a star; just enjoy our club and its facilities.

We have regular social activities organised by our social secretary and monthly, we have a morning to celebrate swimmers’ birthdays. Sometimes we go away for group holidays which are always good fun.

Club Banora fun for kids Every weekend, an army of families descends on Club Banora’s outdoor area where a treasuretrove of games and activities awaits kids of all ages. The ever-growing line-up of fun in the sun at Club Banora continues to grow. There is BOLF, barefoot bowls, kids’ outdoor play equipment, outdoor table tennis tables, a giant koala called ‘Urban’ and party cabanas to book for birthday parties and family get-togethers.

On the first Sunday of the month and the last Thursday of the month, Club Banora invites some special guests to join the fun of these weekly kids’ day.

Thursday Kids Day 10am – 2pm NSW (special guests 10am-1pm NSW on last Thursday of every month).

On Sunday 1 January, the kids can come along and see a circus performer in action, and special

Sunday Kids Day 12pm – 4pm NSW (special guests 12-3pm NSW on first Sunday of every month).

The latest addition is a giant dartboard, which is providing heaps of amusement for the kids. The 4.6 metre high inflatable is set up on the bowls green. There are no darts of course, just sticky Velcro balls to throw at the board to rack up a score. Bulls-eyes are always a bonus!

Families can relax and enjoy a meal outdoors from Club Banora’s Slice & Fork restaurant and drinks are available from the bar. Jugs of juice and soft drink can also be purchased from the bar for the kids. Club Banora’s Kids Days have become a huge hit with local families. On Kids Days, the outdoor playground amps up the fun with arts and craft, putt putt,

Over a period of eight weeks from October to December, it was ‘bowls day’ at Club Banora for the students of St James Primary School. Little Pirate Lukas Suresh tests out the new inflatable dartboard at Club Banora.

Australia Day Pool Party End the summer holidays with a splash at the Australia Day Pool Party at Oasis Pools at Club Banora on Thursday 26 January. The Australia Day Party is the perfect opportunity for some fun in the sun with the kids before the NSW new school year kicks in.

The Banora Point students from Year 3 to Year 6, chose Lawn Bowls as their elective sport as part of the school curriculum. Twin Towns Board Director Ross O’Leary said it’s great for the Club to be involved in the community and work with local schools. “All the children from St James Primary School were extremely respectful and keen to learn about the game. “They really enjoyed themselves during the lessons and we could

see a remarkable improvement in their skill and technique by the end of the eight weeks,” said Ross. “It was wonderful to see the Club Banora greens being used by the next generation.” Ross extended his heartfelt thanks to volunteers, Joe Procko, John Hutchinson and Trevor Plant. These volunteers attended every lesson and tutored the students who were newcomers to the sport. “We hope to see the kids and their families at the Club over the coming months,” said Ross. “They can show off their new lawn bowls skills to their parents over a game of barefoot bowls.”

Pack the fold-up chairs, the picnic rug and beach towels and relax by the pool while the kids enjoy a swim and play on the giant inflatables (weather permitting). Australia Day would not be complete without the traditional Aussie BBQ. Oasis Pools has it covered and the BBQ will be sizzling in true Aussie style with steaks, snags, bacon and egg burgers and more available for purchase. The Oasis Pools Australia Day Pool Party is always a popular event for local families so plan to arrive early to grab your favourite spot. The pool opens from 7am and the Pool Party takes place between 11am and 5pm NSW. Admission is $4.50 for Twin Towns members ($5 for nonmembers) and $4 per child. Duke Hoad gearing up for the Australia Day Party at Oasis Pools

Make it a family day or round up a group of friends. Oasis Pools will be the coolest spot on the Tweed to celebrate how lucky we are to live in this great country.

Down Memory Lane as Goodman swings again Five Gold Coast jazz veterans will will perform the music of swing king Benny Goodman at a special free daytime event at The Stage, Twin Towns, on Monday 30 January.

He spent two weeks learning the ropes alongside retiring dance host Barry Bailey, before he took over at the Harbour Lounge, singing and playing grand piano while couples tripped the light fantastic on a sunken dancefloor.

Goodman, an American jazz clarinet player of the 1920s, 30s, 40s and beyond, came to fame as the host of a radio show called Let’s Dance. A show by Goodman at Carnegie Hall in January 1938 is considered the most important concert in the history of popular music with jazz performed for the first time in a citadel of high culture. Goodman Swings Again at Twin Towns features Trevor Rippingale on clarinet and sax with Colin Jones on trumpet, John Edwards on bass, Owen Smith on drums and Harry Lynn on keys. Harry is well known at Twin Towns, where he hosts the popular

Sets then included the Progressive Barn Dance, Gypsy Tap and Pride of Erin, but changed over the years to incorporate Latin rhumba, cha cha and tango rhythms alongside waltzes and foxtrots. Lynn recalls how one regular arrived at one early gig with a stop watch. Monday 12.30pm-3.30pm New Vogue dance sessions.

Qld

Lynn will celebrate his 26th anniversary at Twin Towns a week before the Goodman Swings Again show. This year Twin Towns also celebrates an anniversary, its 60th, and Lynn remembers his first Twin Towns gig in the early 90s as if it were yesterday.

“He wanted to check my tempos,” Lynn laughs. “He wondered if my Alpha Waltz might be too fast.” Lynn now performs on a Roland keyboard accompanied by drum machine, but still loves to tickle the ivories of the grand piano he fell in love with when he started at the Club. “It was a Yamaha C3 – a 1980s

Young love and more in the air

Love is in the Air, penned and produced by Vanda and Young for John Paul Young, became the most played Australian song in the world thanks to its resurrection in Baz Luhrmann’s hit film Strictly Ballroom.

The Twin Towns piano, meanwhile, now resides in Breezes Bar & Lounge, home of the cascading crystal chandelier, one of the talking points of the club’s $20 million makeover a few years ago. The piano had a facelift too. “It went out to the factory and came back with the cabinet redone. She’s now a very beautiful Ferrari red,” said Lynn. “I like to have a bit of a play before I start my set. That piano was played three to four sessions a day, seven days a week and is still pleasant to play. I love the sound.” Goodman Swings Again Sessions: Monday 30 January, 12.30pm3.30pm Qld, free; Harry Lynn New Vogue Sessions: Mondays, 12.30pm3.30pm Qld, free.

LUNCH LU UNCH spec special cial In July last year, Twin Towns introduced its Flame $9.95 lunch special for those attending daytime shows in the Showroom.

John Paul Young and The Allstar Band will bring their celebration of the hits of Australian songwriting duo Harry Vanda and George Young to Twin Towns in March. Vanda and Young were responsible for Australia’s unique soundtrack of the 1960s, 70s and 80s. They wrote and produced for acts including The Easybeats, AC/DC and Grace Jones.

LADIES BOWLS Christmas and New year celebrations have been and gone and I trust you all enjoyed the festive season. Our Ladies will be returning to social bowls on Tuesday 17 January 2017. Twin Towns Ladies will be competing in the Cross Border Shield for 2017. Monday 16 January 2017 will be the first day of play at Tweed Heads Club. The other event for January is the ‘Australia Day’ bowls on Tuesday 24 January 2017. Happy Bowling Hilary

MENS BOWLS Now that the festive season is over, we should be ready to fire in 2017, so good bowling. The greens were worked on over the Christmas break and beyond and should be in top condition for the coming year. The Christmas party went off well and was very well attended. I have only heard good reports from members. It is time to think about the coming year and I have plenty of nomination forms available for Committee positions. Remember this is your club and it does not run itself. The club needs your support so when you are approached for a position on the committee put your hand up and come on board. Organising bowls days can be a difficult job for the band of office workers, especially when people put their names down to play and don’t turn up or put their name down to play and it is on the wrong sheet. So we ask that you take more care and

make it easier for the workers. So, let’s make 2017 a bowling year to remember. Good bowling. Blackers

SNOOKER Another successful year for the snooker club. We’ve had great responses to our club champions, inter-club championships and external competitions this year. It’s been a great year for snooker, but it’s not over yet. We still have our club championship handicap final to be played between Paul Thomas and Jack Malone, which should be an exciting match. Our last competition night of the year was held on 8 December 2016 and we will return for competitions on 10 January 2017. And last but not least, our Christmas presentation for members and their partners was held on the 10 December. Happy new year to everyone and safe holidays. Luke ‘147’ Poile

TENNIS Our recent Christmas Party at Slice & Fork Restaurant at Club Banora in December was enjoyed by all. Many remarked how stylish the new venue was and that the outdoor area overlooking the lake was beautiful. The juniors also celebrated their end of year with Coach Scott Styman at a party filled with games of tennis, party food and an appearance by Santa which, as usual, thrilled the children. With the Brisbane International, Sydney APIA, Hopman Cup in Perth, Adelaide tournament and the Australian Open in Melbourne, there is plenty of tennis to go to or to watch on TV. Seniors and juniors get inspired - grab that racquet out of the cupboard or that new Christmas present and hire a court with family or friends. Costs are very reasonable. Otherwise, come along to an organised morning or evening with Club Banora Tennis. All details are in the brochure located in the Club foyers or on the tennis noticeboard. Kerry

TRIATHLON The festive season was busy, beginning with our annual Xmas party enjoyed by 50 members at Cabarita. The popular Joe Kelly Memorial Team event and preXmas breakfast followed. At our halfway point in the season, congratulations to the 2016 milestone event champions including Jim Collins and Trevor Lawes 500, Peter Serone 400, Matt Stanley and Ginny Jones 200, Lee Butcher, Matt Lance and Andrew Costello 150, Joe Ward 100. Point score leaders are Joe Mollica, Lisa Moore, James Malcolm, Rob Gillies, Peter Harrington, Kev ‘The Rock’ Bannerman, Matt Lance, Jonathan Davies, Danny Warner and Lisa Warner. There are only 12 points between 2nd and 12th place, so everyone has an opportunity to be a podium finisher.

Many members are proudly wearing their new season uniform and is great to see so many in club uniform! Club championships will be held on 19 March 2017. Visit twintownstriathlon.org.au for more information. Visitors welcome

BRIDGE SOCIAL CLUB The North Estate Agents Club teams competition held over three Mondays in November was won by the Bowles Team, the Dorber Team 2nd and the Masters Team 3rd. Congratulations to those teams. The Twin Towns Christmas Party was held in the Visions Room on 7 December which also included presentations for competitions won during the 2016 year. Bridge is played on a Monday, Wednesday and Friday at Twin Towns Juniors Club commencing at 12.20pm. Please be seated 15 minutes prior to commencement of play to allow the Director of the Day to determine the movement for play. For partners on the day, please contact John Verdickt 07 5523 9696. Happy Bridging.

DIGGERS SWIMMING Seven clubs went to the Lismore Carnival where we close second overall. Our winning swimmers were 85+ yrs Jack Chapman (whose time of 23.78 for 30 metres broke the 85+ record); 70-74 yrs women Toni Cameron; men Warwick Dredge; 65-69yrs Sue Deegenaars; 60-64 yrs Jeanie McKenzie; 35-39 yrs Kim Hawthorne. Kim also swam in all four open championships and finished first twice and second twice. Kim and Jen Annett won the women’s brace relay. The women’s medley relay of Jeanie, Sue, Toni and Melissa Fraser were a mere 0.19sec off nominated time, making them the winners. We won the 10 person Handicap Relay, second in the 10 person Championship Relay, and second in both Medley Championship relays. We had three finalists in the 50 metre handicap and two in the 30 metres, where Ross Drury placed second. We host our swim meet 11 February. Bubbles

EUCHRE & 500S Our games are held upstairs at Twin Towns Juniors Club which is located on the corner of Leisure Drive and Fraser Drive, Banora Point. 500 is played on Tuesday nights and Euchre on Thursday nights with both commencing at 7pm NSW (6pm Qld). Fees are $3 members and $4 non-members and there are prizes for place getters, plus a Lucky Door Prize for each card night. Visitors and new residents are most welcome to come along and join our happy group of players. If you wish to come about 15 minutes before our starting time, they will have a few practice hands with you. The winners of 500 and Euchre for November will be published in next month’s Club News together with the top five players in both for 2016. We wish all our members a very Happy New Year and hope to see all our regulars

GARDEN December gardens were a challenge for us but hopefully all your spring pruning and planting is flourishing and surviving the weather as the wind is persistently annoying. Fun project: Using an attractive clear glass container, layer different coloured dampened sand, some succulent potting mix, baby succulents and white gravel to show up the leaf colouring. These don’t need much water, so a hole in the base won’t be necessary. The Garden Club Christmas Luncheon was held at Twin Towns with entertainment and fun with raffles and prizes. The winner of the overall annual point score was announced and congratulations given. Happy New Year to all internal clubs along with special thanks to Club Banora for welcoming the Garden Club onto the premises. First meeting will be 7 February at 9.45am and visitors and new members will be welcome. Enquiries to Maria on 5524 8234.

GOLF Happy New Year to all and may 2017 be healthy, happy and prosperous. The year starts on a positive note for golf with the course in great condition through the support of the Twin Towns Board and staff. Thank you to the Board for the recent generous one-off internal club’s grant to the Golf Club. At the end of this month, nominations are called for President, Vice President, Secretary and Treasurer, and also notices of motion for the Golf Club 18 March AGM. The Committee worked with the Twin Towns Executive to develop a new Golf Club Constitution which conforms with the generic Twin Towns internal clubs’ constitution. The rework provides no operational change and is complemented by new Golf Club By-Laws which preserve golf specific matters. The Golf Committee is bringing to the March AGM a change to reduce the Committee to seven members, allowing the Captains to select Vice Captains from their sub committees. President Ken

Warm Up!

“We’ve decided to get rid of the jumping castle and hopefully the snake will go with it.” Kingscliff resident Ann Wood took the above images after she spotted a Keelback Snake devouring a cane toad. “They’re good for keeping the toads down,” she said. “The cane toad is a common pest so we welcome the snakes cleaning them up.” SEND US YOUR PHOTOS: Have you encountered a snake or other reptile and you have a photo to share? Send it to editor@ theweekly.net.au

Tyalgum public spaces nearly complete TYALGUM WILL have more reasons to celebrate this holiday season, with construction projects at two public areas on schedule for completion this month. A $200,000 upgrade of Tyalgum Trust Public Reserve, in the heart of the village, and construction of a new lookout at the former waste transfer station are both on track for completion, despite recent wet weather. Two shelters and a playground have been installed at the reserve and pathways linking its facilities have been constructed. The remaining work includes construction of the skate park and a rebound wall that will feature a soccer goal, cricket wicket and tennis net painted onto the wall. “We’re aiming to have these remaining tasks completed for Christmas, provided we get some dry weather,” Council’s Landscape Architect, Ian Bentley, said. Line marking for the hard-surface play area, incorporating the half-court basketball court, will be done in the New Year. Work at the lookout is being completed at the same time and includes construction of

a shelter and furniture. Work at the two Tyalgum sites has been funded by a reallocation of operating funds from the transfer station, which was closed because of low patronage, with complementary funding from the Federal Stronger Communities Program ($20,000) and an additional $50,000 provided by Council through funding for the Tweed Youth Strategy and Action Plan, which identified the need for better facilities in Tyalgum for young people. The next stage of an upgrade of Murwillumbah’s Budd Park is also progressing towards completion. The project, jointly funded by Roads and Maritime Services under the Boating Now Program and Council, included repairing the existing recreational boating pontoon and relocating it to a more prominent location in the park. Its new site is linked by a more accessible path and a new gangway. Finishing touches include landscaping during coming weeks.

OUR SILITHERY serpent friends are stirring across the Tweed this month with a high number of snake encounters some of which are unwelcome. Several residents told The Weekly recently that they have been forced to call local snake handlers after one family encountered a Brown Snake living in their backyard jumping castle. “The snake handler told us the snake had followed a rat into the jumping castle and has established a home in there,” Murwillumbah resident Eryn Young said.

A EXCITING new French patisserie has opened at one of the Imperial Hotel’s store fronts in Murwillumbah, offering a slice heaven in every bite. Ben’s Patisserie is owned and operated by couple Ben and Stephanie Leonardi who are passionate about their pastries. Ben, who was born in France, has extensive experience as a patisserie chef and was recently awarded “Best Sweet Biscuit” at the 2016 Sydney Royal Show. The Weekly recently visited Ben and Stephanie at the patisserie to find out more about their vision for Ben’s Patisserie and sample a few tasty treats. “We’ve always loved Murwillumbah, the people are so friendly and this is such a beautiful community,” Stephanie said. “The patisserie is something we’ve always wanted to open and when the opportunity came up at the Imperial Hotel, we jumped at the chance.” Ben said he continues to develop his pastry skills every year and has plans to travel between France and Murwillumbah to further expand his skills and offer Tweed residents even more delicious bite sized treats. “My passion is as a pastry chef and while I am mostly self taught, I’m also hoping to expand my skills and offering even greater variety of flavours,” he said. Among the delicious range includes lemon meringues, award winning macaron, danishes and a range of pastry with more to come. The patisserie, which opened on Tuesday, December 20, is also expanding it’s range to suit a wide range of sweet tooths. The couple are also planning an official opening day on Friday, January 27, the day after Australia Day. Opening hours Tuesday to Friday 7am-4pm, Saturday & Sunday 9am-2pm. To find out more visit 115 Main Street at the Imperial Hotel or phone 0415 570 808.

Artists needed to help bring Tweed to life Manager, Troy Green said. “The strong responses to these projects show the community really values these artworks and cares about the stories they represent. “The key themes from the community that came through for Kingscliff focused on representing coastal life and heritage while Murwillumbah’s ideas were about a vibrant art town and creative people. “There were also strong environmental and indigenous heritage themes put forward for both locations.” The Expression of Interest documentation and budgets for each of the two Public Art Projects is available from Council’s eTender website at www.tweed.nsw.gov.au/ tenders/current after completion of a short registration process. Submissions close at 4pm (NSW) 25 January 2017. For more information please visit yoursaytweed.com.au/ town-centre-public-artworks Submissions will be assessed by Council’s Public Art Reference Group, in accordance with Council’s Placemaking and Public Art Policy; shortlisted proposals will be put to a public vote before being endorsed by Council.

and healthier lifestyle that is possible for all residents, by further endorsing exercise to combat the Shire’s and Nation’s massive obesity, diabetes and many other more general health problems.” Mr Stretton said he understands readers may consider this idea would come at a price, but he does not believe it would result in further increases in Council Rates, which would also have a flow on effect resulting in increased rents for many, but rather be funded entirely by Council by re-adjusting reviewing and prioritising their many existing revenue flows. “Council should also resist any temptation to lease out any part or all of these Centres to a private operator or company,” he said. “Without knowing TRAC’s current total annual income and expenses, or the likely revenue provided and possible slightly increased expenses that such a decision would provide or incur, after monies received from Memberships, General Admissions, Venue Hire, Coaching Fees, Sales of swim equipment and Kiosk Rental or Profit/Loss if Council operated, to run the three Centres annually, in both cases, could I suggest that this financial gap could be partially covered by the expected huge increase in revenue received from a considerably more reasonably priced, thus affordable, Annual Resident’s Memberships, fairly priced non-resident General Admission Fees and, because of the significant increase in attendances, the significantly higher takings from both swim equipment sales and the Kiosk which, if leased, would justify a rental increase.” YOUR THOUGHTS: Do you think free or subsidised pool access is a good idea? Or do you think it could blow rates out? Email your thoughts to editor@theweekly.net.au

RED DOG: True Blue After the extraordinary and unexpected success of RED DOG, which captured the hearts of audiences nationwide in 2011 and became one of the highest-grossing Australian films of all time, its prequel is going to hit the screens on Boxing Day. RED DOG: True Blue traces the origins of the kelpie who became a legend among the mining communities of the remote Pilbara Region of Western Australia in the 1970s. In the film Mick, a teenager sent to live with his grandfather on a cattle station, finds a puppy in a flood after a cyclone hits the area and the two become inseparable. Refusing to go to boarding school, Mick decides to run away with his canine friend. The film is not only the story of one of Australia’s most lovable canines but also a coming-of-age story about a boy on an amazing adventure. To celebrate the release of the film, its distributor Roadshow Films and My Cinema marketing platform have organized a competition to win a family trip to a heritage cattle station in the Kimberleys, valued at $13,500. To enter, purchase a ticket to see RED DOG: True Blue, fill in your details on the entry form provided, and submit your entry in the box at your participating My Cinema. The last time a similar competition was run (a holiday on the Great Barrier reef linked to the film “Finding Dory”) the grand prize was won by a Tweed Valley resident..!

TWEED LOCAL John Stretton believes he has an idea that could spark widespread discussion around the use of the region’s three Tweed Regional Aquatic Centre pools becoming either free or heavily subsidised. It’s a debate worth having says Mr Stretton who said the move could make Tweed Council pools available to all residents and be the first council in Australia to do so. “The three Council operated TRAC should offer permanent and unlimited subsidised admission for all Tweed Shire Council residents entitling them to all of the Centre’s facilities, including any water slides or like,” Mr Stretton wrote to The Weekly. The alternative, Mr Stretton said, could be a one off $78 family pass or $26 single Annual Resident’s Membership Fee to include covering Council’s costs of issuing a photo ID card on proof of residency, with all children under five granted free entrance. “The annual fee could be payable during July each year to receive the lesser price with a pro-rata $9 (Family) and $3 (Single) for each remaining month of the financial year or fixed prices for a minimum five-year period,” he wrote. “Council’s three Centres are well distributed geographically over the Tweed Valley, with an adequate pool complex at Tweed South, Kingscliff and Murwillumbah, but appear to be well underutilised as they are often far too expensive to visit for many of our Shire’s residents. “The Tweed Regional Gallery, Council Libraries, museums, Historical Societies, Information Centres, cycle and walk ways, parks, playgrounds, gardens and beaches with their much-appreciated barbeques and exercise equipment, skate parks, Tweed river boat ramps, public toilets and most car parking are all free so why not our “physical activity encouraging” aquatic centres? “This would be such a well received gesture by Council for all of their residents and make Council one of the first, if not the first, in Australia to really take a stand on the deteriorating health within all communities, by making a positive contribution towards encouraging a more active

COUNCIL IS calling for Expressions of Interest from artists to bring community ideas to life in the form of gateway public artworks for Murwillumbah and Kingscliff. Through a series of public engagement events this year, and the ‘Love Letters to your Town’ initiative, community members put forward hundreds of ideas for themes they wanted to see represented in art. Now it’s the turn of the creatives. Expressions of Interest open today (15 December 2016). Iinterested artists are asked to submit designs that respond to themes in an artistic brief, developed from the community consultation. The project is open to artists, arts collectives or public art design teams throughout Australia. The proposed sites for the installation of public art are the Tweed Valley Way and Alma Street roundabout at Murwillumbah and Kingscliff’s freeway underpass on Wommin Bay Road. “These are really important projects as the artworks are key gateways to our towns and will play a role in encouraging tourism and economic development ,” Council’s General

J Local sounds with Chantal Waters

HI ALL, welcome to the final edition of Local Sounds for 2016. This week I interviewed Kellie Barnett on the release of the new Trombone Kellie Gang CD. If you haven’t heard this CD yet, I would suggest you do – it’s fantastic. There’s elements of retro, old school, brassy, bluesy, soulful, rockabilly and it’s just fantastic live authentic music. So tell me about the Album titled Trombone Kellie Gang? It’s mainly cover songs with our own arrangements and an original song written by Peter Hurcombe, who is on vocals, lead/slide/rhythm guitar. Myself on vocals, trombone and acoustic guitar. Justin Pfeiffer, double bass. Toby Baron, drums. Special guests Martha Baartz, tenor saxophone and Robert Renfrew, backing vocals. Where did you record the Album? With Jake Mann at KitnKaboodle Productions in Uki, we worked together with Jake to produce it, taking almost a year to create. We love his work and would certainly recommend him to other bands ready to record. Has the CD been released yet? Yes! You can purchase the CD online at www.trombonekellie.com and also in shop at Tweed Creative Studios, 1/19 Buchanan St Murwillumbah When and where are you launching the new CD? Sat Dec 24th Kingscliff Beach Hotel 7pm Sat Dec 31st New Year’s Eve Harrigan’s Drift Inn, Jacobs Well, Qld 8pm Fri Jan 6th Nimbin Hotel, 7pm Sun Jan 15th Coolangatta Sands Hotel 4pm Sat Jan 21st Murwillumbah Services Club 7pm What advice would you give to young people just starting out? I would advise young vocalists to let their voices develop in their own time and unique way. Don’t force those chords. For musicians of all kinds be true to themselves about how they want to express their music. Feel the fear and do it anyway. In this new age your online profile matters, as does a website and professional promo packages etc. Be willing to work at the logistics of running a musical act and be a person of your word. Where to from Here? I hope to bring out an originals album in the next few years featuring many of my musical friends as well as my talented daughters. I am looking forward to recording this at Fat Magpie Records, Uki, with Michael Brainboy. I also wish to keep working with my web designer & astrologer Paola Emma from Fortuna Book Shop, Uki and my Sweet Ma, Leonie with her wonderful posters/CD cover etc. I am continuing to explore new horizons with all of my fun time line ups, whether that is Solo, Duo, or with the Northern Rivers Big Band. As well as the Muddy Roaders Jazz Band and the Trombone Kellie Gang with Scrubby Pete aka Peter Hurcombe. As my partner in crime we make a robust, good cop/bad cop team!

TOP 5 HANGOVER CURES WATER - Typically, the negative symptoms of alcohol derive from dehydration of the body. LEMONADE - Ironically, chugging on sweet, caffeine-free soda may provide much solace during a hangover. GINGER OR PEPPERMINT TEA - Sipping on ginger or peppermint tea is the perfect soothing brew for hangover-related nausea and stomach aches. ASPARAGUS - While the spring vegetable may not be the food craving we have after a few drinks, asparagus may actually protect our body from booze. BANANAS AND PRETZELS - This may seem like a peculiar combination but eating pretzels and bananas can cure a hangover

FEATURED BUSINESS

Hello! My name is Lucas Paitson and I am known to many in the Tweed Shire from the position I held at The Twead Heads and Murwillumbah Tender Centers where I worked within a family run business for 10 years. Six months ago I started my own removals business Murwillumbah Mini Moves. My aim is to provide quality furniture removals for the local area from Lismore to Tweed Heads and as far west as Kyogle and Nimbin. Customer service and sound communication is where my real skills lay, being able to move heavy objects with speed and care is an added bonus which I possess from all those years

Air Conditioning

at the Tender Center along with my know how from growing up in the country. I am 33 years old and have lived in South Murwillumbah for 3 years now and feel right

Antenna & TV Service

at home in this area. Having grown up around Nimbin and Lismore in my school years I have a good understanding of this area and the diverse people that occupy it. I specialise in smaller moves upto 2 bedroom units with everything that is included in a household but can also do full house moves if within local area and will cut travel time if 2nd or 3rd load is required. I can access steep and rough driveways with my 4x4 vehicle. You can find my ad under the Removalists category. I Look forward to hearing from you. You can contact me by phone on 0439079944 or send email to lucaspaitson@gmail.com

POLICE BEAT TWEED RESIDENTS have expressed outrage at the senseless attack of a 61-year-old who was assaulted by two younger men at Griffith Street, Tweed Heads on Sunday, December 16. While one of the young men punched the victim in the head causing swelling and bruising to the victims face and head, the second young offender watched on and encouraged the attack.

Tweed Heads Police are seeking the community’s assistance to locate and identify the two young male offenders (pictured above). The CCTV footage below was taken around the time of the attack. The footage was taken on Wharf Street around the corner for the location where the assault took place. Police are requesting any member of the community that recognises the two young men shown in the below photos to contact police with their details and information.

Police would like to speak with the two young men as they may be able to assist with police enquires. If any member of the community has any information they can contact Senior Constable Tony Atkins from Tweed Heads Police station on (07) 5536 0999 or on Crime stoppers on 1800 333 000. All information received is considered confidential. A FIVE MONTH drug operation by Tweed/Byron Local Area Command officers has resulted in a major drug bust including the arrest of more than 80 people and a large haul of drugs ranging from cannabis plants to cocaine. In a media statement, police said they had swooped on the drug operation following a fourmonth police operation, code-named Operation Sweeper, targeting illicit drug distribution in the Tweed and Byron shires. Tweed/Byron Local Area Command Crime Manager Detective Chief Inspector Brendon Cullen, said the operation ran between July and November this year. “The team achieved some outstanding results and addressed an identified crime issue within the command,” Detective Inspector Cullen said. “During the operation, our four-person team executed 16 search warrants. “This resulted in 155 person searches and 59 vehicle searches which culminated in 84 drug detections, 33 supply matters, and 12 goods in custody detections.

“This led to 82 people being charged with 155 offences, which included drug possession and supply offences, as well as warrant violations,” Det Ch Insp Cullen said. During the operation, officers seized • 174 cannabis plants • 24kg of cannabis leaf • 270g of cocaine • 35g of ice • 20g of heroin, and • $55,575 in cash. The estimated potential street value of the drugs seized was $960,000. Det Ch Insp Cullen urged anyone with information about the sale or distribution of illicit drugs within the area to call Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000. “My team will continue to pro-actively target drug dealers within the Tweed/Byron LAC, and to put them before the court,” he said. Police are urging anyone with information in relation to this incident to call Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000 or use the Crime Stoppers online reporting page: https://nsw.crimestoppers.com. au/ Information you provide will be treated in the strictest of confidence. We remind people they should not report crime information via our social media pages. OPERATION SAFE arrival has concluded following a horror year on NSW roads after 375 people lost their lives behind the wheel. Assistant Commissioner Michael Corboy Acting Commander of State’s Traffic & Highway Patrol

Command hopes that he can report no fatal crashes for every day of the operation. “I am pleased I can report there have been no fatal crashes during day four of our operation,” he said. “My hope is that people are hearing our message. My fear is that many people are simply lucky. “Despite the increased presence on our roads, police have still issued more infringements this year for speeding and other offences than last year during the same operation. “I make no excuses for officers issuing tickets and taking driving privileges away from anyone that thinks it’s okay to risk their life and the life of others by speeding, drinking and driving, not wearing a seatbelt, driving fatigued or use a mobile phone while driving.” During the operation police want road users to think about the #Five2Arrive; five simple tips for road users in order to arrive home safely: 1. Don’t speed. 2. Don’t drink and drive. 3. Wear a seatbelt. 4. Put your phone away, and 5. Take regular breaks. Operation Safe Arrival launched last Friday (16 December 2016) and will continue into the New Year, ending on Monday 2 January 2017. In the four days since the start of the operation there have been three lives lost. The State Road Toll stands at 375 (December 19) lives lost.

Bowls Notes

Tweed Valley Weekly Locals Supporting Locals

with Judy Tuckey

HAPPY NEW YEAR everyone. May you all enjoy a healthy, safe and successful 2017 on the greens. As we reflect on 2016 activities, District bowlers, both men and women, can be proud of the many achievements produced across numerous principles. Tweed Byron women succeeded, for the fourth consecutive year, in winning the prestigious Inter District Challenge conducted at Yamba. Kingscliff’s Laurel Poole and June Munn won the District and Region One Senior Pairs and whilst they didn’t bring the State title home, they certainly made their presence felt in that arena.

Brunswick Heads’ Umpire Bev Rose working in the rain.

Tweed Byron men also produced great results. With Ballina RSL Club hosting the Compass and Schipp Shields, our district lads cleaned up the opposition to bring home the Schipp Shield and were Runners-up in the Compass Shield. Kingscliff’s Greg Barrack and Trevor Hills in the Pairs and Brunswick Heads’ Josh Greenhalgh in the Singles made it to State Championship level and then returned later in the year to take a tilt at the State Champion of Club Champions finals as well. Top bowling

from Barrack and Hills led them to the C of CC semis at Wagga and Greenhalgh made it to the final eight C of CC singles contenders. Throughout the bowling year many hours are devoted to pouring accolades on winners and champions with little recognition, if any, of two very important groups of people who, without them, bowlers would not be able to enjoy their sport the Greenkeepers and Umpires. Our District greenkeepers are to be thanked and congratulated as they do a fantastic job in maintaining and presenting the greens in pristine condition. And the umpires – these volunteer officials are there rain, hail or shine making decisions within the Law of the Sport of Bowls to assist contestants to ensure that games are conducted at the highest level. Thank you Umpires for your time and the excellent service you provide. See you on the greens in 2017. Good bowling everyone.

Tapped in to the waves with Terry ‘Tappa’ Teece

Jamie Mitchell - Charges and Wins at Nazaré GOLD COAST surfer, Jamie Mitchell, has claimed the World Surf League (WSL) Big Wave Tour (BWT) Nazaré Challenge overnight in historic fashion with the iconic Portuguese underwater canyon delivering massive 35-foot-plus waves for the world’s best big wave surfers.

“I have never made a final before today so to win is unreal, I knew I was close to doing well in a whole event,” Mitchell stated. “To put together a whole contest from start to finish is actually more exciting than just the win today. I felt comfortable out there, my board felt amazing and that gave me a bunch of confidence.” Jamie not only is a big wave charger, but was the undisputed best paddler of all time, winning the Molaki Challenge a Kelly Slater like record of winning the event 10 years running from 2002-2011 before concentrating on big wave surfing. Kelly Slater, widely acknowledged as the greatest and most enduring athlete of all time, in any sport, beyond even Michael Jordan, says, “Jamie is one of the greatest

unknown sportsmen of all time. His winning percentage is higher than anyone in any sport ever.” The 2016-2017 Big Wave season continues to deliver exciting action. Big Wave Tour commissioner Peter Mel, alongside the judging panel, allocated today’s conditions a “Silver Rating” with wave faces in the 35-to-45-foot category. Halfway through the final, Mitchell committed to an incredibly late drop on a lefthander, grabbing the rail of his board to engage into a bottom turn before being eaten by the mountain of white water behind him. Mitchell later surfaced with his equipment and was rewarded an excellent 8.67 for his effort, stealing the lead from Burle. The Australian quickly put a second score on the board to cement his lead and hold throughout the remainder of the Final. The Australian walked away with his maiden Big Wave Tour victory at the Nazaré Challenge, a result earning 12,500 ranking points and rocketing him from 13th to 5th on the tour rankings. “I got into a good rhythm at other events but lost it at some point, but this one I managed to keep it and it feels amazing,” he continued. “I’m going to be here until Friday and it looks like there will be more giant waves coming, so I might just take a day to recover from today and try my luck again out there.” A day off…. Most of us would need a day off after just watching the craziness….. Parko to Surf and Speak at Burleigh Boardriders Single Fin Festival After a great end of year performance, Joel Parkinson has ended up at 9th on the rankings, and is looking forward to having another crack in 2017. The highest rated Gold and Tweed Coast surfer, has been confirmed as a started

in the 2017 Burleigh Boardriders Single Fin Classic. An amateur event which sees surfers taking part on boards more than 35 years old, with one fin a flashback to the 1970’s. The event runs on Saturday and Sunday the 7th and 8th of January 2017, and entries are open to the public. Occy is also confirmed as a starter, along with a field of red hot locals and all comers. First prize is the glory and an Ian Byrne channel bottom single fin, but everybody that competes get the prize of possibly surfing pumping Burleigh with only 5 other guys on a classic 1970’s single fin. Maybe a chance to surf against Occy or Parko? Entries are available from the Surfing Queensland website, and the field is limited, on a first in first served basis. As part of the festival, on the Friday the 6th January 2017, Burleigh Boardriders will be hosting their annual charity luncheon at Burleigh Brewing. Guest speakers will include Occy, Joel Parkinson, Rod “Kerrbox” Kerr from Bondi Rescue, and the best looking guest speaker the luncheon has ever had with big wave charger and Instagram sensation Felicity Palmenteer. Also some sporting memorabilia will be up for grabs, including a framed 2002 Rip Curl Pro Bell shirt signed by the winner, the late great Andy Irons. I personally got this shirt signed by Andy when I was commentating the event, just 10 minutes after his win. It has been held back until now put the item up for auction, and should fetch a pretty penny. Tickets for the lunch are $120 per person, or $1,200 for a table of 10, with refreshments from Burleigh Brewing and food provided…. Tickets are available by contacting Edward Lindores on 0413757551. A merry Christmas to all, hope you get some tubes, and I’ll catch you in the waves!!
