Nurses union comes out firing over staffing levels

beds and we ended up with only four extra beds.” she said. “They are building two new operating theatres now but what we need is to know we can give our patients safe care and ratios provide minimum staffing levels on a shift by shift basis.” The union official said that union members had spoken to the Tweed candidates and The Greens and Labor said they will introduce minimum nurseto-patient ratios across the state. “This will benefit all people in NSW but will be a major benefit for the Tweed,” she said. “Our thing is not a new hospital - that’s four years off - we want to know what we are going to do now. “We can’t keep going on like this. We are getting busier and busier and busier. Our emergency department is one of the busiest in the state.” The union spokesperson said that staff at The Tweed Hospital worked really hard, but nurses are getting “sad and upset and frustrated”. “New nurses feel like they can’t give enough care,” she said. “They ring you and say, I didn’t do this and that, can you check on this and that’s because they are so rushed. “Nurses are being pushed to care for too many patients and it’s putting patient’s lives at risk.” Mr Provest said they would employ an extra 5000 nurses and midwives but “mandated ratios lack flexibility to shift staff where needed”. The union spokesperson said it didn’t go far enough.“We need safe nurse-topatient ratios in every ward, and on every shift.” Mr Provest said upgrades were still being undertaken at the Tweed Hospital including extra beds but the union official said they weren’t in surgical and medical wards where an extra 30 beds were needed.

Police investigating threats against Relocate supporter By Jo Kennett TWEED POLICE are investigating threats made against a local resident involved with the Relocate Tweed Valley Hospital Team, following a nasty phone call on Monday, February 25. The woman, who did not want to be named, said she received an abusive, threatening phone call at 3.40am. “My phone rang and I didn’t answer it,” the woman said. “It went to message bank and when I checked it the person said - “I am going to f*** you in the ****. I know where you live c*** I know where you live”. “They read out my address and then said “I’m going to come over and

surprise you one night when you are least expecting it”.” The woman said the caller’s voice was a mature female voice - not a young female. “I listened to the message a few times and I cannot comprehend that a mature woman would behave or speak like that and I didn’t recognise the voice,” she said. “I was curious to know if other members of the Relocate Team had received such a message and they hadn’t, but then, within a short time frame, a member of the group had their home attacked.” The woman said she wasn’t a member of the Relocate Team but had helped them out and supported their cause. “They are trying to get me to back off, being so close to the election,” she said.

“I think it’s better not to waste time and get consumed by it because we have got some really serious issues that must be put on the table and that’s where our energies need to go. “It’s really unfortunate that people resort to this and it’s really ugly, but we just need to refocus on what’s important here and this is that the significant issues are put on the table and I do not lose sight of the fact that truth can prevail.” The woman said she worried about the future “for our kids and grandkids”. “The ramifications that have to occur - I specifically refer to the Murray Darling Basin - the enormity of that, before any change happens,” she said. “That has gone well beyond the region it has impacted, it has gone across Australia.”

to stay with them which means all their other patients have to be dispersed to other nurses so they go from having a ratio of one to five, to one to six or seven or on nights it might be up to one to ten. “It’s a very unfair way to calculate it and it compromises patient care and safety because they want to come in on budget.” The union spokesperson said that babies weren’t counted as patients in maternity wards. “A midwive can have six mothers and six babies to care for because it’s counted as six patients,” she said. “That’s at the detriment of the child’s health. “In emergency we want one to three and the same in mental health - we want the appropriate staff to the areas of specialities with the acuity of the wards taken into account.” The union official said The Tweed Hospital “needed upgrading eight years ago”. “They have done nothing and now all of a sudden they are going to build a new hospital,” she said. “We won’t be pulled into that (the argument about a new hospital) but we all have our own beliefs about it. “We want to know what is going to happen from March 23 after the election.” Last week Premier Gladys Berejiklian told The Weekly her government wouldn’t look at interim measures while the hospital was being built, such as making more use of Murwillumbah Hospital, saying they were focussed on building a new hospital “as soon as possible”. Mr Provest said at the meeting that his government had put in 17 new beds at The Tweed Hospital, but the union official said that wasn’t really true. “The demountables have 17 beds but when they rearranged things, we lost

By Jo Kennett THE NSW Nurses and Midwives Union says that the NSW government is putting lives at risk by prioritising budget over adequate staffing levels, with the situation now acute at The Tweed Hospital. A spokesperson for the Union’s Tweed Hospital Branch told The Weekly the union had been campaigning for nursepatient ratios for eight years “and the current government has refused to discuss it”. “The system is not working in NSW hospitals and we have told them this for eight years and they refuse to listen - they don’t want to know about it,” she said. “We have ministers like Brad Hazzard saying we are doing a great job but we want safe patient care and we can’t do it in a system that is only about budget. “This is about making sure people in our community get a fair go and the best care.” The spokesperson said they recently met with Geoff Provest to discuss the problem. “He didn’t understand anything the government was doing or the nursing-hours-per-patient-day that the government is using as their equation it’s based on how many patients are in a bed at midnight and it’s also based on your postcode,” the union official said. “If you live in Sydney you might get six hours of nursing care to a patient and even though they may have the same operation in Tweed you might get five and a half and in Murwillumbah you only get five hours. “At midnight your ward might have 18 patients in a 24-bed ward because the other patients could be in Emergency waiting to come in - they don’t take into account patients coming or going. “You could be in an acute surgical ward with a rapid response requirement so the nurse caring for that patient will have

Who benefits you ask?

Dr Jeff James correctly points out that there is more to improving health care than building new hospitals (TVW 7/3). His arguments to instead redevelop The Tweed Hospital… is he correct? The manager of the Tweed Heads Bowls Club recently scotched rumours of a sale; the new hospital will be comparable to those at Robina and Lismore; there are no plans to close smaller hospitals at Murwillumbah or Byron; the NSW Nationals have strengthened the economy, added 16,000 frontline health workers over eight years and plan to add another 8,300 next term; whereas redeveloping The Tweed Hospital would necessitate an expensive multilevel carpark and paid parking, it is on public record that parking at the Cudgen site will be free. Claims that “this project has been rushed through in less than 12 months” are also incorrect. Health Infrastructure NSW has been working on it for the best part of two years. Dr James asks: “who stands to benefit from the decisions that have been taken...?” The answer is simple, the Tweed community. Dr D Weston Allen, Kingsclif

Our future farming is at risk

As a farmer’s daughter and a farmer’s wife and having lived on the Cudgen plateau for more than 50 years and three generations of my family farming here today, I wish to clarify a few issues. Those opposing our efforts to change the proposed site for the new Tweed Valley Hospital from the Cudgen plateau State Significant Farmland (SSF), keep bringing up an old petition from 2008 that many of the farmers signed. In 2008 , around the time of the Global Financial Crisis, it was extremely dry and farmers were having a difficult time.

Tweed Valley Weekly Locals Supporting Locals

Stocklands were approaching the farmers and offering big dollars to sell. A neighbouring farmer had been harassing us to sign a petition he had wanting all the farmers to sign requesting for the State Government to remove the SSF zoning from the land. At that time we were leasing his farm and had a lot invested in it with our crop and needed the water on that property to continue growing it. After weeks of his knocking on our door and approaching Doug in the paddocks I said to him to “just sign the thing” as I said it won’t get rezoned. The State Government had put the protection zoning on it only a few years earlier and I said they won’t repeal it anyway, and that is exactly what happened. T h e p r o p o s e d d e v e l o p e r, Stocklands, soon moved on saying they wanted all the surrounding farms or none. Since then the farmers have virtually drought proofed their farms. We now use trickle irrigation instead of the overhead as it uses about one tenth of the water. We have deepened and widened our dams and put down bores to top up our dams if low. So now with the rest of the state declared last year as in 100 per cent drought, we still have plenty of water. Now the big issue on the plateau is with “healthy soils give healthy produce” and with sustainable agriculture this can be achieved. If the new hospital was built at its existing site in Tweed Heads, where it was always planned to be built or at Kings Forest or any of the many other sites it could have gone - it would be very little difference in time frame of completion. As far as the Cudgen site being the only suitable site, we know that the site selection criteria was flawed, requiring a probable maximum flood level of a millennium flood when every other hospital built, including the new Byron Bay one, only required a PMF level to be a one in a hundred year flood. If the hospital is built there the remaining land will fall like dominoes. Already the adjoining property was sold to a developer last week within hours of the government announcing the removal of the SSF zoning from the hospital site. We were informed at the second public meeting held at the Tweed Civic Centre in May last year that this was just a rumour. Strange coincidence now.

It sold for $4.51 million for 5.67 hectares and is still zoned SSF at this stage. What will happen eventually is those farmers who try to remain farming with higher rates on the increased land value and our infrastructure eg transport companies etc will diminish. Lyn Paddon, Cudgen

Daylight Savings drags on

I support Mr Richards (TVW, March 7, Letters page) that so-called ‘daylight saving’ definitely should have ended by the end of February. We did not vote to have it automatically added to the length of months, especially by politicians who have had all facts regarding the side-effects of ‘daylight saving’. The most vital being the negative effects on our body clocks – circadium rhythm – the most terrible effect on that important life need – being sleep and all the symptoms that have become apparent with this loss of sleep. We know this as study after study and ads telling people to investigate their sleep problems and they pay to have them rectified. Actually, it is time to ditch ‘daylight saving’ altogether, as MP Geoff Provest did state a few years ago but then gave in to whom, who, what? With the medical evidence ignored, MPs have burdened people with the medical side effects of daylight savings made available to them and an apology should be forthcoming from them; not only the medical suffering but the dollars of debt incurred by daylight savings. Melatonin in tablets does not equal at all the melatonin hormone that is produced in our brain to ‘tell’ us when to sleep and when to wake! Definite warnings about taking melatonin, especially to children. Also the long-time use is not known. Just eliminate ‘the elephant in the room’ – ‘daylight saving’ – have our body-clock hormone melatonin be allowed to do its job. Jillian Spring, Billinudgel

The impacts will be significant

There is no doubt the Tweed Valley needs a Hospital capable of dealing with existing demand and demand well into the future. Up until 2017 the plan had always been to redevelop and expand the existing hospital at Tweed Heads and maintain Murwillumbah. In 2017, there was an about face on long term planning not long after all members of the Northern NSW Health District board left or were sacked. A new board was appointed and without providing any feasibility study a decision was made to build on a greenfield site as opposed to the long-term plan.

Attempts to gain access to documents regarding selection criteria and community consultation from the NSW Government under freedom of information have proved futile. Losing The Tweed Hospital will have significant impacts on that community. The impacts of a large hospital on the communities of Cudgen, Kingscliff, Chinderah and Casuarina will be significant. ln a democratic society the decision to change long standing plans which will have significant long-term effects on local communities should be transparent and inclusive. As yet the current decisions are neither. Michelle Lynch, Kingscliff

Students can and should strike on their own time

Regarding Kids Strike 4 Climate (TVW Letters page) Ari Ehrlich slams educators and politicians for threatening action against kids who wish to express their views on climate change. He misses the point. If school age students are so passionate about a public or political topic that they wish to organise a protest march, then they should do it in their own time, such as the weekend or after school hours. What’s the (misnamed) “strike” got to do with the school they attend? I suspect that most student “protestors”, some no doubt having more than a passing interest in climate change, actually have a different set of life’s priorities. Cynical me says many won’t do it in their own time because that would infringe on their free time for beaches, sports, parties, movies or just hanging out. For organisers, it also has the disadvantage that it risks a much lower turnout. I suspect many of those attending in school hours are just there because it’s fun, it’s cool, and best of all, an act of noisy rebellion against school authority. Leaving school without legitimate reason raises a number of other questions: 1. It starts to look like an unsupervised excursion. As students are in school uniform, does this imply the school remains legally responsible for their well-being? What if there were an accident? What about the validity of the school’s insurance? Should teachers be required to accompany them? 2. Schools are not allowed to take political positions. If by coercion a school decides it has little choice but to grant the time off and support with teachers, does this imply

the school endorses the views of students? Perhaps I totally misjudge the genuine depth and breadth of students’ feelings. There’s one way to prove me wrong. Organise the protest for a Sunday. And to avoid any accusations of hypocrisy, ask students to arrive by push bike rather than being dropped off by their parents in fuel guzzling cars. Leave their devices at home as well as wasteful and environmentally damaging balloons and streamers. Or how about they get involved in local environmental issues if they don’t already. Something they can make a real, immediate and personal difference. How about for example tree planting for koalas, that I suspect will become extinct along the east coast from direct impacts long before humans ever will from something as vague and indirect as climate change. I was recently pleased to see two teenage school girls from Kingscliff roll their sleeves up on such a tree planting this month at Koala Beach. It was a hot, muggy, mosquito infested Saturday morning when they could have been anywhere else. But only two. The rest of the turn out, about 30 or so, apart from a few Council and national parks organisers, were mostly senior citizens. Ian Robinson, Casuarina

I concur with Dr James’ letter

I congratulate Dr Jeff James for his letter (TVW Letters page March 7). I have worked in both regional and metropolitan hospitals for more than 25 years and agree 100 per cent with his summary of issues that will arise as a result of the new Tweed Valley Hospital’s proposed location. Every situation Dr James raised has been my personal experience as well. Importantly he asks: “who stands to benefit …” and locals “… are in for the shock of their lives”. If you haven’t read his letter please do. He has asked significant questions which have not been addressed in any acceptable way by this government. All we have been given are Trumplike patronising statements. As Chris Evans states in the TVW on the same date - voters are not fools.

Tempers flare over Draft Rural Land Strategy

By Jonathon Howard A GROUP of landholders have voiced their disappointment with proposed amendments to the Draft Rural Land Strategy (RLS) during a public forum at Murwillumbah Services Club on Friday, March 8. The draft RLS amendments could rule out secondary dwellings on rural lots (RU1 and RU2) greater than 10 hectares as well as raising the minimum lot size of RU1 zones from 10 hectares to 40 hectares amendments that have been strongly opposed by some rural landholders. The public forum attracted more than 100 locals and included Lieutenant Colonel David Freeman (retired) as chair, Michael Simmons representing the Murwillumbah & District Business Chamber, Deputy Mayor Chris Cherry, Mayor Katie Milne, State Government Greens candidate for Lismore Sue Higginson, Craig Huff, David Hamil, Neil Baker, Peter Van Lieshout and Cr Pryce Allsop. The draft RLS was originally exhibited in November 2017, but 25 amendments, raised by Mayor Katie Milne and supported by a majority vote from councillors, has seen the document re-exhibited with the new amendments. Residents have until Tuesday, March 19, to comment on the draft strategy which can be viewed at www. tweed.nsw.gov.au/onexhibition. Councillors in support of the amendments cited fear of “open zones”, which could increase the

range of permissible rural land uses such as short-term holiday letting. However, Councillor Pryce Allsop has spoken strongly against the amendments and has taken a lead role in attempting to have the amendments reversed with the support of both Cr Warren Polglase and Cr James Owen. The landholders expressed their disdain with the amendments during the public forum, which was convened by Murwillumbah & District Business Chamber. Many landholders believe the amendments could hinder future potential earnings and sustainable living on the land, as well as allowing for future family accommodation for those wanting to live in separate dwellings. S o m e l a n d h o l d e r s h av e acknowledged councillors’ fears of short-term holiday letting and have even suggested means-testing applications on their merits or restricting short-term holiday letting. The speakers presented a range of passionate arguments against the amendments, which included potential economic benefits, as well as highlighting the proposed amendments as being “out of step with neighbouring councils”. Burringbar farmer Craig Huff delivered a passionate speech highlighting that farmers need to future-proof their properties. “As farmers we’re engaged and work hard, trusting that the policy decision is not going to shaft them,” he said. Mr Huff highlighted that some people knew very little about the

document and he urged landholders to read it and make sure their views are clear in the submissions process. “Secondary properties need to be allowed, landholders want to have their kids live separately on the same property,” he said. “Tweed Shire is out of step from other councils.” Mayor Milne said it was a difficult decision and stressed the need to recognise some farmers are “doing well”. Mayor Milne said 78 per cent of the Tweed Shire’s land is rural farming, which she said surprised her considering it was less farmland than the Gold Coast. “Given there’s less farming, further subdivision of land is not regarded as appropriate,” she said. “We’re just maintaining what we have, the status quo, the majority wanted it the same. “We are not allowing the additional housing.” Mayor Milne listed some of the other proposed policies on the draft strategy including protecting cane lands, establishing a livestock register, encouraging supermarkets to stock local, Council wanting to do better on discounted rates, controlling weeds, reducing carbon, value adding through tourism, roadside stall mapping and more. In closing, Mayor Milne said she wanted to “make sure farmland is for farming, not housing”. Greens candidate for Lismore Sue Higginson said she does “not see the document as an inhibitor”. “Are we farmers or are we house builders?” she asked.

Ms Higginson said “the Nationals have left the farmers behind for coal and gas”. At this point she received several jeers from the landholders complaining that she was “spruiking her election policies, not talking about the Draft RLS”. Ms Higginson apologised for becoming politcal on the matter. “If there was ever a time to support our farmland it’s now,” she said. “It’s not a housing development document.” A snap poll was also taken from the room to see whether anyone in attendance supported the proposed amendments and not a single hand was raised. After the meeting, Mayor Milne told The Weekly that the current revised Draft RLS proposes 136 actions to support the long term sustainability of farming in the Tweed Shire “and this needs to be acknowledged”. “The key aspects of the new revised draft proposes to remove the proposed recommendations to increase housing in the rural lands,” she said. “Whilst there are undoubtably members of the community who wish to increase housing on rural lands, the outcomes of the community consultation identified that a clear majority of submitters preferred to retain the existing levels of rural housing and Council has responded to those views.” Former Council Administrator Max Boyd (AM) has voiced his support for Mayor Milne’s decision

The forum panelists

telling The Weekly he’s had his own past experience on the strategy. “People who are seriously farming their land, do not need more housing,” he said. “More housing and farmland do not mix.” However, forum speaker and local farmer Neil Baker contacted The Weekly and said prior to the public forum many of the local farmers and rural land owners believed their submissions and input at meetings had been “completely ignored”. “ N ow, i n bl a c k a n d wh i t e printed in the strategy document, the submissions made on behalf of the rural community have been apparently binned and, it would appear, been completely disregarded,” he said. “Farmers are battling on the land, we need the option of a separate flood-proof and drought-proof income desperately. “We are, arguably, after all the key stakeholder group. “Will the candidates for the imminent State Election stand up for country folk? Will they declare publicly their view and support farmers and rural landowners?”

THE LEGAL LIGHT! The high cost of farm accidents Farm accidents can be very costly both for the victims and the farm owners, and it’s not just the tragic deaths and physical harm that result from farm accidents. Personal injury lawyer Justin Stack, Managing Director of Stacks Law Firm, says both farm owners and farm workers should protect themselves by getting legal advice on their rights and obligations under the laws that govern workplace safety.

“A family owned farm recently had to pay $80,000 in penalties in an accident that injured a female contractor,” Mr Stack said. “A forklift struck the farm worker, who had to walk down the same corridor used by the forklift to reach a room she had to access. “She was left with a fractured pelvis, dislocated shoulder, bruising and scarring and was unable to continue working. She was struck from behind by the forklift which was carrying a stack of produce. “The court found the farm guilty of failing to take reasonable steps to provide a safe workplace separating forklifts and people.” Mr Stack said this particular farm had had previous workplace accidents, including a worker stepping into an open drain base and another being run over by a seeding machine, resulting in a combined fine of $85,000. “It is vital that workers who are injured receive proper compensation for injuries which can impact them for years. They can also be entitled to compensation for loss of income stemming from the accident. “It’s also vital that employers conduct workplace safety audits, identify risks and make safety improvements. Failure to do that can result in serious injuries that are costly both in court-imposed penalties and in compensation to the injured worker. “Forklifts are a particular concern. SafeWork NSW has highlighted recent accidents where a forklift driver was crushed to death when his machine overturned and another where a farm worker was killed when he fell from a steel cage being lifted on the tines of a forklift.” WorkSafe says 1300 workers were injured in forklift accidents over two years to 2016. Half of the 180 businesses checked by inspectors were handed improvement notices.

The NDIS forum attracted more than 65 Tweed residents. Inset is NSW Senator Kristina Keneally and Justine Elliot MP

Labor Party hosts NDIS forum to field questions

By Jonathon Howard THE LABOR Party hosted the first of several National Disability Insurance Scheme (NDIS) Forums at the Salvation Army Hall in Banora Point on Thursday, March 7 with guest speakers including NSW Senator Kristina Keneally and Federal Member for Richmond Justine Elliot. More than 65 people filled the hall with many families eager to gain greater insights into the NDIS including increasing uncertainty around eligibility. Prior to the meeting, The Weekly was given an exclusive interview with Ms Keneally, who fielded questions around the NDIS. The Weekly asked Senator Keneally about options for people who have had their NDIS applications rejected. “The first thing is Labor introduced the NDIS, which is a transformative program that will put people with a disability at the forefront,” Ms Keneally said. “However, there are significant challenges including areas such as the current government placing a funding cap on the NDIS.” Ms Keneally said there are so many requirements in the NDIS and people are given “inadequate plans with little capacity to change”.

“In addition, there are areas within the NDIS that are leading to people falling through the cracks,” she said. Ms Keneally said the reality is “under this government, because of the staffing cap, they have stunted the NDIS”. “We always knew there would be complex issues in the NDIS roll out, but we can’t address that when you have caps in place,” she said. “Labor’s plan is to lift the staffing cap on the NDIS and we would also provide scope for advocates, such as paid advocates, volunteers or family members. “It’s about the best resources for the NDIA and giving the people the best chance.” Ms Keneally highlighted many of the issues around planning for the NDIS, including the many hurdles around paperwork, which is required to be completed every year. “Take an example of someone who has cerebral palsy, why do they need to do a plan every year,” she said. “Surely there must be capacity to check back in five years as their condition is not likely to have changed.” Ms Keneally said under a “Labor government they plan to slash the red tape and make the application process a more common-sense approach”. The Weekly asked about the issue of NDIS applications taking months to

Ms Keneally said she understood the bed blocking issues and said a Laborelected government would address these issues by increasing NDIA staff numbers, improving processors and removing unnecessary policy. “There’s also chronic underfunding in the health system, which is what results in the bed blocking issues and this needs to be addressed,” she said. Ms Keneally joined Mrs Elliot MP at the forum to field questions from the community. Ms Keneally also spoke highly of the Tweed Shire and has experience in the area as both NSW Premier and on holidays with family. “I’ve been to the Tweed Shire a lot,” she said. “I came here as Minister for Ageing to turn the sod on the Sextons Hill development. “And when I was NSW Premier I came here on holidays with the family.” YOUR THOUGHTS: Are you having problems with the NDIS funding or paperwork?

In brief ... Community interest in upgrade More than 40 people attended a community meeting last week to see the proposed design of the Captain Cook Memorial and Lighthouse building upgrade. The project aims to demolish and rebuild the building beneath the Border Marker occupied by the Volunteer Marine Rescue Service NSW. The Border Marker towers will remain unchanged. The 29-year-old structure has numerous defects and concrete cancer and the cost to maintain it fit for occupation is no longer sustainable. The $1.974 million project is being jointly funded by the City of Gold Coast and Tweed Shire Council, via grant funding of $973,000 from NSW Government’s Restart NSW Regional Growth – Environment and Tourism Fund. The presentation from the meeting, which includes the proposed building and landscape designs, is on the project page at www.yoursaytweed.com.au/Captain-Cook-Memorial You are invited to provide your feedback at Your Say Tweed.

Check for this compost symbol Please only use certified compostable liners in your green bin which carry this symbol. Or use newspaper or nothing at all. Council has seen lots of people using plastic bags for their food waste. Or bags sold as degradable or biodegradable. These can't be composted and are only good for the RED bin and landfill. We know residents are trying to do the right thing so we’ve produced a guide of leading brands to clear this up – visit www.tweed.nsw.gov. au/Waste/ReplacementCaddiesAndLiners for more information. If you’re not sure – get in touch with Council on (02) 6670 2400.

Well done Tweed River High School students for your work cleaning up along and in the Tweed River.

Many hands make light work of clean up The Tweed’s rivers, parks and roadsides are in better shape thanks to the efforts of individuals, schools and businesses for Clean Up Australia Day events over the last few weeks. Here are some highlights: • Twenty-seven Tweed River High students cleaned up waste through Jack Evans Boat Harbour and in the Tweed River, supported by Tweed Sea Sports. One group scuba dived in the river from Duranbah Beach to The Tweed hospital, while another picked up litter along the foreshore. • In Murwillumbah, Sathya Sai students scoured Knox Park for litter, helped by local resident Steve Gilhan who does his own daily clean-up of the park as a service to the community. • Volunteers freedived in the Tweed River and rescued plenty of old tyres, shopping trolleys and other debris. • The headland at Hastings Point and Cudgera Creek also benefitted from the generosity of volunteers who were willing to give up their time to make the Tweed cleaner. Well done and many thanks to the other schools, individuals, organisations and businesses who participated in Clean Up Australia Day events across the Tweed. For more information about how to get involved next year, visit www.cleanup.org.au

If your liner does not have this certified compostable symbol, don’t use it to put food scraps in your green bin.

Mary’s one of the wonderful women of the Tweed Tweed Regional Museum celebrated International Women’s Day last Friday by highlighting some of the amazing women of Fingal Head. One of the stories they shared was contributed by Daniel Browning about his grandmother Mary. “100-year old Mary Browning is a respected elder in the Fingal community. She is also the heart and soul of her extended family who gathered with friends and community members at Fingal Primary School to celebrate her centenary in December. Born into an uncertain world a few weeks after the end of the First World War, Mary grew up at what was then Meyer’s Ferry or Elston

(now Surfers Paradise) where her South Sea Islander grandfather, Charley Emzin, operated the winch ferry by hand. She remembers an idyllic childhood – playing in the scrub and on the beach, with the salt in her hair. Mary grew into a famous local beauty and must have broken some hearts. But one heart that wouldn’t be broken was that of a Fingal man, Noel Browning. After a courtship interrupted by war, Noel proposed in 1943 while he was on a short break from active service as a skipper with the 11th Australian Small Ships Company, then deployed in Papua New Guinea. They married a week later. There were four children, two sons and two daughters. Mary’s memory is crystal clear: she remembers that the nurse that brought her eldest child into the world had attended the birth of her father Bill Emzin 55 years earlier. Nurse Bessie Cowderoy delayed her retirement, so she could close the circle and safely deliver Bill’s first grandchild. My grandmother Mary has a story for every grandchild: she always reminds me of the time I was staying with her, sick with asthma. We’d gone for a calming walk along the beach. Soon, Nan explained it was time to go as she didn’t want to miss the next episode of Days Of Our Lives. Quick as could be, the five-year old looked her square in the eye and hissed “Nan, you and your bloody serials”.

Living and Loving the Tweed

There was a huge outpouring of disgust and disappointment about the news in last week’s Tweed Link that six mature Poinciana trees were deliberately poisoned in a park at Banora Point. Council’s Facebook post on the issue was deluged with comments and reactions, and Manager Recreation Services Stewart Brawley did a number of radio and television interviews. The story spread fast through shares across Facebook, even extending to ABC-TV’s Gardening Australia Facebook page – which has over 300,000 followers – who commented “This is devastating”. “It goes to show how much our residents appreciate the beauty and the shade that trees such as these bring to our recreation areas,” Mr Brawley said. “While no-one has yet come forward with solid information, we are still hoping to hear from anyone who may have seen anyone drilling or poisoning the trees in Elm Place at Banora Point. “If we were able to prosecute someone for this vandalism, it would send a strong message that vegetation vandalism is something that Council and the community will not tolerate. “Regardless, it’s obvious from the response we’ve had that people appreciate trees such as these and we will be replacing the dead trees with appropriate native species and will keep the community up to date with progress on this. “Please don’t take matters into your own hands. If you have problems with vegetation on Council-owned land – get in touch with us so we can talk it through,” he said. For more information on trees on Council land, visit www.tweed.nsw.gov.au/TreeManagement

Multiple holes were drilled in six mature poinciana trees, which were then poisoned.

New life for walkway

9

You’re invited to attend the official opening of the new Anchorage Boardwalk at Tweed Heads on Friday 15 March at 2pm. The boardwalk was reconstructed at a cost of $936,000, using government funding for the rebuild from the State Government’s Cycling Infrastructure Fund. The 245-metre-long boardwalk runs along the mangrove foreshore of Terranora Creek from the northern end of Keith Curran Park to Pelican Point. The original timber boardwalk was built in the early 1990s but was closed due to safety concerns as several sections had rusted and were structurally unsafe. The new 1.8 metre-wide boardwalk has been constructed using composite fibreglass piers, decking and handrails and powder-coated aluminium balustrading, which will not rust, rot or be attacked by termites.

Help can help improve Banora drainage You’re invited to go along to Banora Point Western Drainage System (WDS) on Saturday 23 March for a family planting day. Conservation Volunteers Australia is hosting the event, which commences at 9am and will take place behind housing at Foxhill Place. The planting will take place along this section of the WDS and additional activities will include hand pulling weeds and removing rubbish. Native Lomandra and Carex will be planted to help reduce sediments and runoff entering the system. The planting will go ahead rain or shine, so come prepared for all weather. Conservation Volunteers Australia is committed to help Tweed Shire Council improve the health of WDS and get the community involved. In conjunction with Council’s improvements through structural works to remove shallow points and extending floating reed beds, working bees are held every Friday, meeting at 9am along Avondale Drive.

Protective clothing should be worn when taking part in planting activities including covered sturdy shoes or boots, hat and gardening gloves. Refreshments will be provided and to help cater for everyone, please RSVP to Shae Kolk on 0475 973 888 or via email at skolk@cva.org.au And if you want to be more involved in local environmental projects, CVA is looking to establish a Banora Point Landcare group. Contact Shae to find out more.

Check out the new Anchorage Boardwalk at the official opening on Friday.

By Jonathon Howard INDEPENDENT CANDIDATE for the state seat of Lismore, Greg Bennett, has recently announced his tilt at state politics with hopes to build upon his current experience as a Lismore City Councillor. Mr Bennett wrote to The Weekly recently to introduce himself to readers and outline his vision for the electorate. “I would like to thank the Tweed Valley Weekly for providing me with this opportunity to introduce myself,” he said. “I am a married man with a 10-year-old daughter, and I have been a Councillor on Lismore City Council for nearly seven years. “On council I have fought for a commonsense approach and I have argued and voted against every budget and financial report in the Lismore Council because of the direction Council was heading in. “That direction has resulted in increasing costs without corresponding income which has led to deep financial difficulties.” Mr Bennett said his background includes more than two decades in small business and commercial agriculture. “Last year I was the largest supplier of Certified Organic Macadamia Nut to MPC, Australia’s largest processor,” he said. “I have also had a successful police career of 11 years and four years in financial planning of which I retired from two years ago.” Mr Bennett said he has formal qualifications in commerce, business, financial planning, investigation, agriculture, finance and mortgage broking. “I have a proven track record of acting in a financially prudent manner,” he said. “Among the things that I support include individual and property rights, traditional country values, preserving our Christian traditions, keeping our flag, supporting the rights of faith-based schools, affordable electricity, Australian manufacturing, rail and improving local health services.

Shock road death and series of horrible accidents

By Megan Albany A SPATE of accidents across the Tweed Valley has rocked the shire prompting widespread debate about the need for greater safety initiatives on local roads. Tweed District Rescue S q u a d p re s i d e n t D rew Carr said it had taken the combined efforts of all of the Tweed’s emergency services and the community working together over the past eight days to ensure the fastest response for accident victims. “I’m extremely proud of what our crews and the community have done over the past eight days at all times of day and night,” Mr Carr told The Weekly. Mr Carr said the volunteer organisation was called on throughout the horror week due to their role in providing services to help free trapped drivers and passengers. Mr Carr also commended the SES, Fire and Rescue, local police, ambulance and volunteers from the community for their timely efforts in attending to the accident victims.

Belly dance flash mob for a great cause

By Megan Albany TYALGUM BELLY dance instructor Jewels Sims is calling for men, women and children to shimmy their stuff as part of a flash mob to support victims of abuse around the world. For the past eight years on World Bellydance Day, teams of belly dancers have danced a Shimmy Mob to raise funds and awareness for domestic violence support services. Ms Sims, who has been belly dancing for more than 20 years and currently teaches in Tyalgum, said no experience is necessary to join the Tyalgum flash mob who will be performing the dance routine on Saturday, May 11. “Shimmy Mob was started by a woman in Canada after her own experience of domestic violence,” Ms Sims said. “The choreography is really simple, I’ve even taught the routine to my eight-yearold daughter so everyone can join in.” Registrations to join the Shimmy Mob close on Sunday, March 31, after which Ms Sims will commence rehearsals for what will be her first flash mob for the global event. “Our team is called Team Tyalgum and I am starting small but next year I would like to head to Kingscliff and then possibly Byron or the Gold Coast as there is a real opportunity to get more Shimmy Mobs participating, but I am starting in my own village with my own troupe,” she said. While most of us are familiar with seeing women belly dance, contrary to popular belief, Ms Sims said men were also traditionally part of belly dancing troupes and she is encouraging men to join the mob and show their support for this important issue.

Police call for assistance after teenager assaulted By Jo Kennett

Belly dance instructor Jewels Sims is calling for new dancers

“We just want everyone to dance whether you’re a man, woman or a child,” she said. “I had a male dancer in a previous troupe but of course the way they dance and their costumes are very different. “Their choreography is more masculine, and they traditionally use things like sticks, swords and even snakes. “Their costume is traditionally baggy harem pants, a Turkish vest and a fez hat and they provide a good contrast to the women. “Male belly dancing was part of the history of the dance style which can be tracked back to ancient Egypt.” However, it’s not all about shimmying your stuff, Ms Sims said, but more

importantly about raising funds and support where it is needed most. “All money raised will go to Wollumbin Family Support Incorporated, who promote safe families and focus on the prevention and provision of options for families to help with recovery from domestic violence,” she said. “Their aim is to let women know that help is out there for them and to help raise awareness of warning signs to prevent domestic violence.” Ms Sims said she is encouraging local businesses to donate prizes for a fundraising raffle to be drawn on the day.

TWEED POLICE are appealing for information after a teenage girl was indecently assaulted on the beach at Hastings Point on Monday March 4. Police said that the 17-year-old girl caught a bus from Kingscliff and got off on Tweed Coast Road to go to the beach at about 12pm. The man is described as being of athletic build, of tanned complexion, with brown messy hair, possibly with blue eyes, having a distinctive tattoo of the sun on his right shoulder and wearing blue shorts. As the teen walked north towards Hastings Point, she saw a utility parked near the entrance to the sand dunes with black material covering the tray and a surfboard sticking out. Police said the girl changed into her swimming costume and went for a swim. As she got out of the water, she saw a man walk past her. There were no other people on the beach at the time. The man followed the girl as she walked back to collect her belongings and spoke to her before indecently assaulting her. Tweed Byron Police District Detective Chief Inspector Brendon Cullen said the incident happened near the Shell (Coles Express) Service Station beach access track on the southern side of Hastings Point. “When the man spoke to the girl he mentioned to her that he worked in construction,” Ch Insp Cullen told The Weekly. “It’s quite possible the person is from Queensland. “We are still seeking information from the public.” Ch Insp Cullen said police hadn’t identified any persons of interest and are still hoping the public may be able to come forward with information. “The young girl isn’t a local to the area which makes things trickier but having said that the attacker had a very distinct tattoo of the sun on his shoulder,” he said. A Hastings Point resident contacted Crime Stoppers to provide a detailed description of a vehicle and man he saw at the beach access track at the base of the headland at Hastings Point earlier the same morning which he thought might have been involved.

What's old is new again in the exciting world of photography “As a result, we are now buying second hand cameras from the USA and we are selling those to customers fully serviced so they know they are working.” Despite the demand there is no move by major camera companies to come back on board with producing new film cameras. “ Yo u c a n’t bu y t h e m n ew anymore,” said Mr Kelleher. “We’ve even approached people like Pentax to see if they could do a small run of 1,000 cameras, but they told us they can’t do it anymore. “They used to use a lot of lead to give cameras a feeling of quality and solidity and that’s just a no no nowadays.” For a generation used to shooting digital photography however, there is a steep learning curve for budding film photographers. “I’m seeing younger people using their phone to shoot lesser quality photos but when they are wanting to be creative, they are choosing film cameras. “Film forces you into selective judgement as you can’t take hundreds of photos like you can with digital. “When people ask me for hints with using film, I often tell them to simply stop and have a look at what they are taking a photo of or to turn around and look behind them. Even just moving a little to the left or the right can help in the selection of that perfect shot.” While film cameras are on trend, Mr Kelleher said that when it comes to developing, Photoshop was unlikely to be replaced by dark

rooms by photographers wanting to enhance their pictures. “I started off as a dark room expert and I was doing a lot of things that people now do with Photoshop such as combining of images, template overlays, custom printing and changing exposures. “These days with Photoshop however, it’s much faster and easier and I can do in ten minutes what would have been an eight-hour process.” The company also develops film, a process which Mr Kelleher said is more hands on than some customers think. “Back when most photos were developed from film, people were under the impression that people didn’t look at the photos, but you had to see what you were printing that was part of the process.”

“As a result, if we had young girls working for us we would conscientiously shield them if we realised the photos were too risque and we would call on somebody else to do the printing. “There is much less of that nowadays because of digital photography we’re not as exposed to those sorts of photos as we used to be. “There was no law per se in the industry regarding photos that we developed but I had a conscientious rule that if it got to a point that I thought the photos were abusive or child offending we would pass them on to police as I think it’s important we live in a nice society.” Mr Kelleher said he was first introduced to photography by his grandmothers who were both photographers.

“I’ve been in photography since I was little, I started working late nights and weekends after school in a photostore and then began working at Fletchers Photographics 24 years ago. “I went on to own the company and we renamed it Wades World around 12 years ago. “I love what I’m doing, it’s a fun job and that’s what it’s all about for me.” Wades World are now located at 23B Griffith Street Coolangatta and their services include film developing, digital printing, photos to CD, canvas printing, enlargements, passport photos, photo restoration, camera repairs and large format printing.

By Megan Albany WHILE MOST of us think digital images when it comes to photography, there is a growing t r e n d a m o n g t h e yo u n g e r generation to re-embrace the age of the film camera. The Weekly caught up with veteran photography expert Wade Kelleher of Wade’s World to find out what is driving this trend back to vintage cameras. “We’ve recently moved location to Coolangatta and it’s a much younger area and we are finding a lot of the youngsters are getting into film,” Mr Kelleher said. “What’s happening is they are looking at mum and dad’s photos and wondering why they are so good and are realising it’s because they had a good camera and they had film.” As one of the few businesses that specialises in not only digital but film photography, Mr Kelleher said they are at the forefront of this growing niche market. “There’s a lot of growth in that area area and we’ve always been involved in film but now there are very few of us left around that do that,” he said. “The amount of film being used in Australia over the past four years has had a 50 per cent year on year growth,” he said. “There’s a huge movement back into classical photography and we’ve got to the point now where we are seeing a lot of young people coming in with cameras, they’ve bought in garage sales that are no good.

Look out for cyclists back on the roads

locals are aware of the riders as they have been on the same roads for years. “In general we use the stretch of road down to North Tumbulgum, across to and beyond Chillingham, heading into Upper Crystal Creek and sometimes even Nobbys Creek,” he said. “Occasionally we head to Mooball for a race start at the Moo Moo Cafe using the roads across the Burringbar Range, in and around Stokers and part way to Pottsville.” The club offers graded racing for members and visitors from all over Australia and according to Mr Collier has built a reputation for providing tough road racing courses and safe racing. “We are quite a long standing club with a lot of history and we are known Australia wide for our road racing in this area which is why we maintain a high level of control over the riders to ensure their safety,” Mr Collier said. “We can’t have riders being irresponsible or doing crazy things and if they do they are punished or kicked out of the club. “We have to do the right thing to keep our permits and make sure we follow the road rules and have traffic control in place.” Murwillumbah Cycle Club meet at Pat Smith Park most Saturday afternoons on Dulguigan Road from 2pm.

By Megan Albany AS THE heat of summer begins to retreat, the Murwillumbah Cycle Club has returned to the roads of the Tweed Valley and they are calling on motorists to please be patient. The club, which has been around since the 1930s, said there’s a real need for motorists to be patient, obey the rules and to share the roads safely with cyclists. “The majority of cars are very good but there are some people that do make it difficult so we are asking drivers to be patient and to show other road users respect,” Murwillumbah Cycle Club spokesperson Jeff Collier said. “Country roads are not always very wide so we need to be able to share the roads especially when the road is not in very good condition as cyclists may be forced to ride out a little bit from the edge of the road to be on the safest and the smoothest path." Mr Collier said that motorists need to make themselves aware of the the laws in place regarding passing cyclists safely. “The law states that you have to give cyclists a metre and a half when passing or a metre in 60 zones,” he said. During race season, cyclists from the club may travel on the road in a group known as a peloton of riders, and Mr Collier said drivers need to be aware that the riders are in a race situation. “They are racing so they may be jockeying for position so when a car comes up behind them they need to wait until it is safe and they can see ahead to pass,” he said. “It might mean having to wait for thirty seconds or up to a minute and then moving onto the wrong side of the road to give the riders plenty of room. “We will certainly look forward to a friendly toot when you see us on the road and we are easily recognisable with coloured numbers on the backs of riders and cars with flashing lights and signs.” Races generally take place on a Saturday afternoon and Mr Collier said that many

NSW VOTES 2019 Q&A with candidates With the state election fast approaching The Weekly asked candidates for the both the Lismore and Tweed seats what they would do to improve public transport and roads in the region. Member for Tw e e d G e o f f Provest said public transport in Tweed will receive a “major boost with the Nationals in government announcing 300 more bus services per week, with extended hours and better connections for the Tweed and Murwillumbah hospitals, for our TAFE colleges and to provide better cross-border connections”. “We are also introducing the Regional Seniors Transport Card to take the pressure off the cost of transport,” he said. “Valued at $250, the card can be used to purchase fuel, pay taxi fares and Trainlink rail and coach services. “Light rail connecting Tweed and Coolangatta Airport is also a step closer with the recent feasibility study identifying two route options – one to Tweed Heads and one to Tweed Heads South. $1 million for strategic planning will move this project forward.

“When it comes to roads, the Nationals in government will set aside $500 million to assist councils repair, maintain and seal local roads in regional NSW with a further $500 million to replace old timber bridges. “We will also transfer responsibility for important transport corridors such Tweed Valley Way, Tweed Coast Road and Pottsville Road from Tweed Council to the state government.” Animal Justice Party candidate for Tweed, Susie Hearder, said the Tweed electorate needs to “reinstall the trains on our tracks and have a user-friendly rail based integrated public transport system that accommodates all age groups, and those with disabilities”. “If we don’t retain the rail tracks, we will lose this opportunity forever,” she said. “A rail connection between Murwillumbah and the Gold Coast Airport is critical, linking up with the Gold Coast rail network. “We should also explore solar powered trains linking the shopping, medical, business, and central tourist areas. “State government funding is needed to help attract and subsidise private transport operators in

electorates like Tweed with a carbon tax on fossil fuels and industries harming our climate. “The tax could be put towards encouraging and helping to fund low emission operators and those willing to transition to zero emissions. “Leading by example at state government and council level should include a fleet of electric motor vehicles and long-term funding is essential to help maintain safe council roads to minimise accidents.” Labor candidate for Tweed Craig Elliot said “Labor will provide the funding to fix our decaying local roads and build n ew a n d s a f e r transport networks”. “If I’m elected I’ll fight hard to improve our Tweed bus services because for far too long Tweed has missed out on our fair share of funding from Sydney,” he said. “After 12 long years in office, Geoff Provest has failed to deliver any serious transport solutions and he’s broken his promises including his 2011 election commitment to bring back the Murwillumbah to Casino rail service. “As soon as he was elected to government he immediately broke that promise.

“Locals know that it’s only Labor governments that invest in our region. “The notorious Sexton Hill blackspot was eliminated because Labor in government invested the funds to build the Banora Point bypass. “It’s clear that under the Nationals you don’t count. If elected to be your local representative, I’ll put our community first.” Greens candidate for Tweed Bill Fenelon said his party have in place “extensive policies in support of improved public transport”. “Continued widening of the freeways is not keeping up with our increasing reliance on cars and the best solution is improved public transport,” he said. “We believe integrated, accessible, and efficient transport systems will lead to sustainability. “We will stop the sale and destruction of public transport infrastructure “Maintaining and improving public transport infrastructure and services is vital for NSW. “ Pe o p l e h ave t h e r i g h t t o inexpensive, accessible (walk to) public transport.”

Mr Fenelon said he supports longterm investment in public transport and rail freight to improve existing services and extend new services, such as electric buses, rail and light rail. “Transport systems that favour cycling and walking are both environmentally superior and more socially inclusive, and deserve far greater support and funding,” he said. “A shift to rail for medium distance passenger transport is an important and effective response to global warming, congestion and pollution, and improves road safety.” Independent c a n d i d a t e fo r Lismore Greg Bennett said he is a “rail supporter”. “Rail provides m a ny b e n e f i t s including providing affordable travel for the most vulnerable in our community, increased tourism and it gets freight off our roads,” he said. “I see a lot of common sense in joining the Tweed area into the Queensland network and will strongly support this. “For seven years on Council I have fought for increased road funding.

NSW VOTES 2019 Q&A with candidates “Local healthcare services and roads will be my highest priorities if elected. “On Council I have also backed attempts to create an integrated transport network. “Sadly all Council’s efforts have met with the same response – no money.” Mr Bennett said at this election there is an opportunity to “break the Newcastle, Sydney, Wollongong stranglehold on funding and change this”. “It is highly likely that a few independents along with the Shooters, Fishers and Farmers Party will hold the balance of power in the lower house after these elections,” he said. “It is also likely the same will occur in the upper house. “I have been speaking with many of these people to ensure that if I win ‘Lismore’ I will have a seat at this negotiating table. “Rest assured that I will exercise the balance of power to do just that.” Greens candidate for Lismore Sue Higginson said the “Nationals have failed the people of the Tw e e d b y n o t taking concrete

steps to fix the Northern Rivers’ transport mess left by Labor’s shortsighted decision to abandon the Murwillumbah to Casino train line”. “We should have a fully functional public transport system that connects us and takes us to the places we need to be and that brings our coastal visitors to our towns,” she said. “The rail corridor is our current most valuable public transport asset. “I will work to ensure funding for an immediate detailed feasibility study to turn the neglect around and create an integrated Public Transport Plan that extends to Tweed Heads, to connect our Lismore-Casino line and enable all the people in between to travel to Brisbane. “Our plan would be poised to take advantage of new technologies such as electric shuttle buses and light rail. “Our public transport system will be built on principles of accessibility, safety, affordability, efficiency, sustainability and tourism opportunity and including trains, light rail, electric buses, car sharing, cycleways and walkways. “We should also have beautiful bike paths and scenic trails where those who love to walk and ride, wherever they come from, can do so.” Nationals Candidate for Lismore Austin Curtin was unable to respond

t o t h i s we e k ’s question prior to the print deadline. In a previous response Mr Curtin said fixing local roads and bridges was one of his election commitments. H e re c e n t ly we l c o m e d t h e announcement by Deputy Premier John Barilaro and Roads Minister Melinda Pavey to spend more than $1 billion to fix local roads, repair NSW’s iconic timber bridges and reclaim up to 15,000 kilometres of council roads. Mr Curtin said local roads in Lismore are in urgent need of maintenance and will be prioritised under Fixing Local Roads. “This funding will take a big load off our local ratepayers and councils,” Mr Curtin said. “We will be able to clear our local roads maintenance backlogs, replace Kyogle’s timber bridges in poor condition and see those local roads classified in the ‘Regional Road Network’ transferred back to the state and able to be upgraded quicker. “Today’s announcement is more proof only the Liberals & Nationals in Government listen and deliver for local regional and rural communities.”

Animal Justice Party candidate for Lismore Alison Waters said her party does not h av e a p o l i c y portfolio on public transport and roads. “However, I am a proponent of public transport and I would advocate for the establishment of a local rail service for the region to improve transport options for workers, young people and older people in our communities,” she said. “With a growing population and the challenges that climate change poses, it is essential that we develop efficient public transport options for our region, including rail, bus, rideshare and cycling options. “ W h e n n e w f r e e w ay s a r e developed, the Animal Justice Party advocates for the inclusion of wildlife overpasses or underpasses to mitigate road deaths of wildlife.” Labor candidate for Lismore Janelle Saffin said she wants to complete t h e Re g i o n a l Integrated Transport Plan that she started with the Northern

Regional Organisation of Councils (NOROC) a decade ago. “It is past time to deal with this unfinished business to respond to our immediate needs, with all future transport options on the table,” she said. “Private vehicle travel will continue to dominate in rural and regional areas and Labor will fix and maintain our roads and bridges (Labor North Coast commitment $190 million), increase electric power charging stations in rural and regional areas, transition government cars to electric and roll-out kids free bus travel.” Under the title “local actions” Ms Saffin said she would extend the RED Ticket to more socioeconomic groups/concession card holders, incentives for a carpool system, investigate options for rapid commuter services to and from major employment destinations, extend small buses on demand, introduce weekend sport buses, extend the scope of community transport, list school bus services on Transport for NSW trip planner, develop more cycleways, review timetabling to ensure the first intertown service arrives before 9am the last leaves after 5pm and link Murwillumbah/Kingscliff/Tweed with return journeys.

Solar Cuts Local Club’s Power Use in Half

advertisement

Since installing 60 kW of new solar panels in September last year, grid power use at East Lismore Bowling Club has been halved, saving thousands of dollars for the club each year.

During the heat wave last week, Jeff Beard, Manager at the Club said that they were running the airconditioning up til 5pm without using any power from the network at all. The success of the solar project is encouraging for other clubs, businesses and homes who are struggling to understand why they are paying so much more for electricity now. The price of solar power systems has been falling almost as fast as power is going up, making solar the most economical way to reduce daily running costs. The board at the East Lismore Bowling Club chose local provider, 888 Solar Tek to supply their new solar system over other competitive offers, largely based on the superior technology offered and the great experience one of the members received from 888 Solar Tek on their home solar system. 888 Solar Tek are the leading provider of SolarEdge solar power systems in the Northern Rivers, a technological breakthrough that uses optimizers to ensure every panel operates separately to prevent energy loss to whole strings of panels when one is shaded or damaged. This allows a SolarEdge inverter to produce up to 25% more power than a normal string inverters. With 25 year warranties Solar Edge is competively priced but offers significant life time savings. Here are a few of the advantages available with SolarEdge:

“I contacted them last year saying I wanted to bring it to Australia and I have had calls with Jamie Margolin who has done work with the American government,” Sage said. “They have been giving me guidance and I’m working with them to bring Australasia on board. “This year on July 17 we will be having a march through Surfers Paradise.” Sage said they will also be working with schools through a program called Reaching the Roots of Climate Change. “We will be going to local schools next year and educating youth about climate change and what actions we need to take,” he said. “In the education system at the moment there isn’t enough about climate change, it’s more just about pollution so we want to bring that into the system. “My friends at Kingscliff High want to get involved because nothing is happening in terms of action on climate change and they understand that and are saying, “you know what, we’ve got to do something so we are taking a stand for the country”. Sage said he currently has eight people in his core team. “They are all off doing things like working on finance, or logistics,” he said. “We are registered as a political party rather than a not-for-profit which was easier to organise so we have a fundraising page to pay for permits, logistics, staging and promotional goods. “We have a GoFundMe and social media pages and a website as well if anyone is interested in joining in. Sage’s mother Sabrina said she was incredibly proud of her son. “The whole family is so supportive and we couldn’t be any prouder,” Ms Hill said. “It was something I was quite passionate about when I was younger and like his parents he is very headstrong and determined when he sets his mind to something. “He’s very motivated - I’ve always thought he would be a politician or a lawyer - and determined once he’s passionate about something and we are very proud of him.” If you are interested in joining contact Saige at ZeroHourAustralia@gmail.com

By Jo Kennett A KINGSCLIFF High School student has been appointed the Australasian Coordinator of Zero Hour, an international youth movement taking action on climate change and the environment. Sage Hill, 17, said he had never been involved in environmental movements but felt inspired to take action when he saw what Zero Hour were doing in America. “Seeing what they did in America, reaching a massive audience on social media and having thousands of young people rallying in front of the White House made me think, if adults aren’t going to do anything we have to,” Sage told The Weekly. “The United Nations said that it will only be 11 years before we have a global catastrophe. “It’s the youth that is going to be seeing the effects of current actions with 85 per cent of Australians living on the coast so we only have so much time to do something about rising sea levels. “We’ve had the Paris agreement but there are no consequences for those countries that break the agreements. They can look good by signing up but if they are over in their carbon emissions nothing happens.” Sage said he had already begun talks with local politicians. “We got Justine Elliot on board at the end of last year and we have also had talks with Tweed Shire Council,” he said. “We really want to work with the Australian government in terms of creating new policy on climate change because I think currently only Labor has a policy on climate change so it’s good to work with Justine to see how we can improve outcomes. “The Labor Party has only reduced carbon emissions by 12 per cent and the Coalition has increased it by six per cent.” The Zero Hour movement was founded by 16-year-old Jamie Margolin who said she was “frustrated by the inaction of elected officials and the fact that youth voices were almost always ignored in the conversation around climate change and the profound impact that it would have on young people”.

Get ready for Wintersun 2.0, a car lovers delight By Megan Albany WHILE THE motoring industry’s use of fossil fuels normally puts them on the opposite side of environmental issues, Wintersun 2.0 business support manager Christy Bowman has said that vintage cars have their place in the reuse movement due to the recycled nature of the classic vehicles. “There’s a whole contingency of people reusing and recycling old cars which stops them all going to the junkyard,” Ms Bowman said. “Old cars are easy to fix and they’re a great testament to the history of mankind’s ability to create. “The fact that you can take an old shell and recycle it into a useable object means that we’re the world’s best greenies.” Having grown up around not only cars, but car meet-ups, Ms Bowman said she inherited her father’s passion for old vehicles. “I’ve always been around handing the tool or nuts and bolts to firstly my father and now to my partner who is also a mechanic,” Ms Bowman said. “People love those old cars because when things break they are easy to customise or fix whereas if you want to fix a new car you have to plug it into a computer to figure out what’s going wrong.” Ms Bowman said her father and partner in Wintersun 2.0 became a mechanic at 15 and has maintained a passion for classic cars ever since.

“When I was a kid we bought a different American car every six months and my father would customise it then sell it on,” she said. “My dad’s been running car shows since I was a kid and I’d be dragged out to the Pontiac Nationals to sell raffle tickets or to time the sprints or to give out the trophies.” Ms Bowman said her upbringing had left her with a passion for the classic car industry. “I love a car that’s got a big engine and a big noise,” she said. “I love that feeling of a free open road and the wind in your hair and you certainly get a lot of attention driving those old vehicles.” These days Ms Bowman partners with her father in Aces and Eights Event Management which is set to run the third Wintersun 2.0 event at Murwillumbah Showgrounds from May 31 to June 3. “Car people and the rock and roll dance crews are quite an eclectic mob and they love the community feel of the old festival and the retro fashion, memorabilia markets and vintage caravans,” she said. “Murwillumbah is the perfect vintage art deco town to host the festivities, and we just love the buzz our community brings to the town.” While the festival attracts families and men and women of all ages, Ms Bowman said her favourite part of the festival is listening to men talking about their vehicles.

“You think girls can talk but when these guys get together to chat cars it’s crazy,” she laughs. “They pick each other’s brains and ask, ‘how did you fix that mate?’ or ‘what’s that mate?’. “I’m more likely to say it’s are red one, it’s shiny or that one’s a pretty one, whereas they’re right into the specs and nuts and bolts of things.” Ms Bowman said after recently securing funding from Destination NSW this year’s Wintersun 2.0 will be bigger and better than ever. “We are collaborating with Foodie Fest and having a street closure. “We will be using half of the street for cars and the other half for food vendors and we will have a main stage by the clock tower for our performing artists.” For more information visit www. wintersun2.com.au

‘Chryslers On The Coast’ is coming and pictured above are two classic Chryslers owned by local Paul Hession.

Chryslers on the Coast

AN EXCLUSIVE car show for vehicles built and distributed by Chrysler factories all over the world will take place at the Burleigh Town Tavern car park on Sunday, March 31. The show and shine will include everyone’s favourite Chryslers including Valiant, Dodge, Plymouth, De Soto and Jeep to name a few. The show will run from 10am to 12pm (NSW time) and is organised by the Gold Coast/Tweed Chrysler Club who are a group of car enthusiasts that exclusively collect Chrysler model cars. Its members are based in northern NSW and the Gold Coast. Chrysler car enthusiast and Mapp & Hession Pharmacy part owner Paul Hession said the event would be one of the largest Chrysler car shows in South-East Queensland. “It will include cars from as far afield as the Sunshine Coast in the north to Lismore and Ballina in the south,” he said. “Organisers are expecting more than 100 cars to descend on Burleigh.” To enter a Chrysler vehicle the cost is only $5, but to come along and have a look it’s completely free. There will be trophies awarded in several categories. “This is an opportunity to see some very rare cars on display in all categories from faithfully restored original cars, to stunning street machines,” Mr Hession said. “Food is available on site. “It’s a great day for all car enthusiasts.”

By Jonathon Howard THE MURBAH Swamp Beer is brewing at Stone & Wood in South Murwillumbah in anticipation of the third annual Open Day taking place on Saturday, March 30. The open days have so far raised tens-ofthousands of dollars for Tweed Palliative Support Wedgetail Retreat, which last year raised more than $30,000. The event will again take place between 11am and 5pm and locals and visitors are invited to the all-day, family-friendly event of beer, food and music, complete with market stalls, food trucks, a kids’ area and brewery tours for those keen to get behind the scenes. Additionally, paying homage to the legendary Murwillumbah story of the beer truck that crashed into the Tweed River on Boxing Day and the ‘heroic’ tales of locals diving in to save the beer, Stone & Wood will again brew the highly sought after Murbah Swamp Beer for the event, along with putting it on tap at local venues. Last year, profits from Murwillumbah Open Day helped raise more than $30,000 for Stone & Wood’s national not-for-profit, the inGrained Foundation, which directed the total amount to Wedgetail Retreat.

Stone & Wood’s Community Manager Jasmin Daly said this is the third year the independent brewery has partnered with Wedgetail Retreat, whose vital services continue to receive strong community feedback. “The work that Meredith and her team do, caring for our community, is inspirational,” Ms Daly said. “We’ve seen the respite, refuge and tranquillity they provide for those with life limiting illnesses and also the support they give to the families in their time of need.” Wedgetail Retreat president Meredith Dennis (OAM) heaped praised on Stone & Wood staff for their commitment to the open day and their continued support of Wedgetail Retreat. Due to Wedgetail Retreat’s ongoing need for support, Stone & Wood, through their inGrained Foundation, are looking forward to also partnering with Wedgetail Retreat for the next three years. Transfers between the Murwillumbah brewery (35 Kite Crescent, South Murwillumbah) the Tweed Coast and Byron Bay will be provided by Mt Warning Tours. For Murbah Open Day updates and information, locals are encouraged to visit: www.stoneandwood.com.au.

Political signage causes a stir as campaigning gets fierce By Jo Kennett

ELECTION SIGNS are becoming an issue of their own this week with legal signage being ripped down in the Lismore electorate and illegal signs going up around the Tweed electorate. Signs supporting Sue Higginson, the Greens Party candidate for Lismore, have been taken down from two properties on Tyalgum Road recently. “Just passed Eungella two signs were ripped off stakes that were screwed to a big post on private property,” Greens member Ari Ehrlich told The Weekly. “They were put up just over a week ago. “The other sign disappeared since yesterday from about five metres within a fence on a corner just down the road in Eungella close to the bridge - both of them were on Tyalgum Road.” Mr Ehrlich said it was an infringement on the right to free speech. “It’s about democracy and freedom of speech,” he said. “All parties are vulnerable to each other doing the same thing, so it’s just not a good way to do democracy. “These are electoral signs to alert people to the options available to us in the election and the vote is up to the individual.” Mr Ehrlich appealed to the public “not to infringe on each other’s rights for free expression”. ”Everyone has that right,” he said. “The candidates put all sorts of efforts into presenting themselves and spend funds getting the signs printed and a huge amount of volunteer time goes into a campaign and it’s disrespectful of each other. “We’ve all got a right to our own opinions.”

In the federal electorate of Richmond local member Justine Elliot has lodged a formal complaint with the NSW Police Commissioner after receiving complaints about signage put up by Matthew Fraser, the National Party candidate for Richmond. Mrs Elliot said Mr Fraser “may have broken the law by repeatedly placing campaign signage on roads featuring the reproduction of a “stop” sign.” “The “stop” sign featured in Mr Fraser’s signage is almost indistinguishable from the official traffic sign,” she said. “It utilises the classic red and white colouring of the official traffic sign, is printed in capital letters in a similar font and adopts the distinct octagonal shape of the “stop” official sign. “As a former Police Officer, I believe his illegal acts are dangerous and irresponsible and may confuse motorists and could ultimately lead to a serious traffic accident. “I’ve been contacted by many distressed locals who said their attention has been distracted whilst they’ve been driving and confronted with these illegal “stop” signs.” Mrs Elliot said the signs were placed repeatedly “on road related areas which includes footpaths and road shoulders”. The NSW Road Transport Act states “a person must not install or display on, above or near a road any sign, signal, marking, structure or other device that might reasonably be mistaken to be a prescribed traffic control device”. The signs had been placed in 16 different areas before Mrs Elliot lodged her complaint, however a spokesperson for the Federal Member said that signs were subsequently placed in another three locations.

“It’s now around 19 different instances - it’s about community safety and he’s pretty blatant,” the Labor spokesperson said. “His reaction was to put more up when he found out we had made a complaint about it. “It’s a blatant disregard for the safety and welfare of the community.” The offence carries a maximum of 20 penalty units which equates to around $3224. Mr Fraser said the complaint was a “sign of desperation and an attempt by Mrs Elliot to stifle debate” on what he called the “Labor Retiree Tax”. “Everyday, retirees are telling me they are livid with Labor wanting to raid their accounts, some will be $12,000 a year worse off,” he said. “That’s a huge impact on the quality of life of those who have simply done the right thing and put money aside for a better retirement. In response Mrs Elliot told The Weekly that “every year the government wastes $5 billion of taxpayers money handing out cash refunds to people who have not paid income tax, money that can be spent on hospitals and schools”. “Labor will end this tax loophole,” she said.

Fundraiser a huge success

COMMUNITY MEMBERS have rallied around You Have a Friend and Tweed Palliative Care for a special community fundraiser and social gathering at Johnny Francos Place on Thursday, February 28. The event featured a special auction with the last item of the night a 65-inch TV that Taylors Electrical had donated. The final bid for the TV was $2,000, which went to You Have a Friend from the successful bidder Billy Picone. Mr Picone then turned around and announced that he wanted to donate the TV to Tweed Palliative Care Wedgetail Retreat, which was a fairy-tale ending for the successful night, raising a total of $5,560. Taylor’s Electrical offered to deliver the TV and picked up the unit from Johnny Francos to be delivered this week. The event highlighted the efforts from the local businesses community in supporting not for profits such as You Have a Friend and Tweed Palliative Care.

Pottsville Beach Sports Club to go solar

POTTSVILLE BEACH Sports Club has recently received a $55,000 grant to install solar panels which will slash their power bills. Club manager Michael Judd said the club will save about 35 per cent per month on the power bill. “It’s a great saving for the club and this will allow us to reinvest in both the club and give back to the community,” he said

WELL ROUND 1 is finally here. I’m sure the NRL are keen to get the footy underway and push the off field dramas to the background. My opinion on it is I feel you are innocent until proven guilty, however, as role models and ambassadors for the game I’m comfortable with people being stood down if there is enough evidence to suggest police investigation and charges. The social media issue is very prevalent in today’s game, the players know it, the NRL are doing work every week through welfare programs to improve these players behaviour and knowledge. They need to behave better, end of story. Now back to the footy. I wouldn’t read too heavily into the trial form of some teams as most only play one decent trial to see younger developing players and the nurse their stars through trying to avoid injury. Some players won’t trial e.g. Milford and James but I’m sure they will be starting this week. The pre season is the worst thing about being a professional footballer. You quite simply get hammered and tortured for 3 months in the hottest climate and although the pre season may not win you a comp it sure can cost you one. Clubs are all looking for small edges physically and mentally these days and the pre season is the best opportunity when you have minimal injuries and don’t have to prepare each week for battle, but I’m sure the players are glad it’s over. For what it’s worth I’m tipping a good season again from a Seibold inspired Broncos and also believe the team who knocked them out last year the Dragons are a chance (but I won’t tell my mate Buster Kirby that). The team to beat are the Roosters, I’m not sure how you win a comp and sign two internationals and an origin player but whatever Uncle Nick Politis is doing there is working. They are a classy side and now world club champions. I do hope our team up the coast goes well. Coming from this area we need them to do well and I hope they do.

Storm

at the Footy with Quinny They have some good juniors coming through with the Northern Rivers Titans u/16’s team going 4/4 so far in the Andrew Johns Country Cup. I was lucky enough to join 27 tragics on the Gold Coast last weekend for the NRL masters competitions and what a great weekend it was. My thoughts and prayers go out to Clayton Dodds from Jimboomba who unfortunately suffered a spinal injury. We will definitely be back. Saddle up for the Thursday night Blockbuster Melbourne and Broncos. How good! See you at the footy. Quinny

NORTHERN RIVERS SYMPHONY ORCHESTRA PROUDLY PRESENTS

Uki Art Collective celebrates one year

“Paula Peach was one of those artists and she is now exhibiting in the Uki Art Gallery. “She doesn’t like dealing with the public so the arts collective was a softer introduction for her to meet the public. “A lot of our artists weren’t confident to sell art outside their home and they have all succeeded at that. “There is no other place like this that’s on every month, usually artists can go into little galleries but only for a short period of time whereas this is a consistent venue.” The event has now expanded to include food and music as well as the opportunity to meet the artist behind the art. “We are now joined by Pure Love food who have a passion for organic fresh food from the paddock to plate with vegan and vegetarian options and for our anniversary we will have acclaimed singer and harpist Wendy Grace performing.” Ms Grace was one of Australia’s first female singer/songwriters to record her own music in 1975 and has worked with leading jazz artists including Crossfire,Tommy Emmanuel as well as being a support act for Ry Cooder. The Uki Arts Collective takes place every third Sunday of the month at the Uki Hall on the same day as the Buttery markets.

By Megan Albany THIS SUNDAY, March 17, marks the first year anniversary of the Uki Arts Collective, which started out with a view to provide visual artists with regular exposure across the Tweed Shire. The Collective has since helped boost the careers of numerous artists including Christine Mellor with many artists from the collective achieving sales both nationally and internationally. The Weekly spoke to founder Lisa Young about why the collective has been so successful. “My background is in events and also home styling and I saw that there was a need in our Tweed Valley region for something like this,” Ms Young said. “My partner at that time was an artist and I could see his frustration in not being able to get his art out there more and that there weren’t enough galleries. “The idea was to provide an opportunity for the artists to promote themselves as a business under one roof alongside other creatives.” Ms Young said that many artists such as Christine Mellor have gone from strength to strength since being exhibited in the collective. “Since joining the collective Christine has exhibited over six times and she sells a lot of her sculptures overseas now so she’s really chuffed.” Ms Young said it was not just Ms Mellor who had benefited from her participation in the arts collective. “Every artist that’s been on board, in particular the younger ones, have all not only been able to gain exposure for their art and sell pieces to buyers locally and from around the globe, but they have also grown in confidence.

ON THE BASIS OF SEX

81674

FILMS th Mia

If you watched the excellent documentary RBG aired by SBS last week you will already be familiar with the story of the formidable Ruth Bader Ginsburg, the US Supreme Court Judge who has been fighting all her life for gender equality and minorities’ rights. She has become a role model for women and a hero for the Jewish community of New York, and a very admired celebrity whose fiery personality has become an icon of popular culture.

Leora Sibony takes inspiration in Condong Sugar Mill

“Living rurally and doing a lot of driving you see a lot of agricultural and industrial elements amongst our massive landscape.” Despite painting and sculpting inanimate objects, Ms Sibon said her artwork is not without emotional elements. “I tend to humanise the structures a bit so they’re not just metal, they have elements of personality and history,” she said. “I do a lot of deconstruction of machinery from small electronic stuff through to different types of mechanical objects and I take the individual bits and reconstruct them into something else.”

A LL YO U CA N EAT

B

Talking

A mum and business owner, Ms Sibony said she is hoping the residency at the gallery will give her the opportunity to do two weeks of focused work for her upcoming exhibition. “I do have an awesome studio at home but I just know working out of the gallery is going to bring something else to my work which will feed into my exhibition there in July,” she said. “I am working on the sculptural elements for that show at home and I will probably do some of the two dimensional painting and drawing during the residency although I am not quite sure what I’ll do there, so I’ll be ready for anything.”

The film On The Basis of Sex focuses on Ginsberg’s uphill early career and the relationship with her husband and professional partner Marty, whom she met at the Harvard Law School in 1956 where she was one of just nine female students – each of them humiliated by the school dean who would ask them why were they “occupying a place that could have gone to a man”. You may already know how Ginsberg’s life evolved from there and what an ice-breaker she was in many respects, fighting case after case for equal rights regardless of gender and in doing so chipping away at institutionalized sexism in the USA. The film stars Felicity Jones whose casting, despite the actress’s bravura and the screen chemistry she shares with Armie Hammer in the role of her husband, has led to some controversy for downplaying the Jewish aspect of Ginsberg’s personality. On The Basis of Sex has an added layer of poignancy due to its release soon after the contentious nomination of conservative Judge Brett Kavanaugh to the Supreme Court. The title of the film is a masterpiece of marketing intelligence, because despite being true to the film’s narrative it may attract to the screenings people who expect something quite different, and will instead be treated to a good history lesson..!

By Megan Albany TWEED REGIONAL Gallery’s latest self-funded artist in residence Leora Sibony is fascinated by industrial landscapes and in particular the Condong Sugar Mill. The Northern Rivers artist who will commence her two week residency on March 15, will be producing work for exhibition at the gallery at the end of July and recently spoke to The Weekly about her passion for painting and sculpting our man-made environment. “My work revolves around responding to industrial structures in the landscape, I find that all quite intriguing,” Ms Sibony said. “In Murwillumbah there’s that sugar mill which I always love looking at so I am hoping to get access into the mill to draw and photograph it and to bring all that back into the studio at the gallery and see what comes of that.” Ms Sibony said it was a trip to New York in 2015 that inspired her passion for industrial landscapes. “What struck me there was that the whole place is a city, you don’t have much of an element of nature in the landscape instead what you are dealing with is buildings,” Ms Sibony said. “All those water towers they have there awakened in me an interest in the landscape and how we respond to it and the curiosity that brings. “When I came back to Australia I was struck by our landscape and how big it is and that the industrial elements here are colossal,” she said.

artists and the Tweed Regional Gallery collection. International artists featured include Swiss German artist, Dieter Roth; Pop Art influenced American artist, Ed Ruscha; pioneering conceptual artist, Sol LeWitt; and renowned Australian painter, sculptor and printmaker, Robert Jacks. Works by Northern Rivers artists include books by Christine Willcocks, Helle Jorgensen, Meredith Crowe and Travis Paterson. Tumbulgum artist Helle Jorgensen, whose work has been featured nationally and internationally in shows in New York, Los Angeles, Washington and London, said being included as one of the local artists in the exhibition is an honour. “I’m extremely proud of being part of this exhibition because there are some very important works in it,” Ms Jorgensen said. “My book in the exhibition is an instruction manual for a suite of objects which include The Lofty Thoughts Generator, Processor and Catcher and is titled Instruction Manual for the Lofty Thoughts Generator.” “I think this exhibition will be very inspiring for young artists in the region as there’s a lot of young kids that are using social media and this is just another way of expressing what’s important to you.” Director of Tweed Regional Gallery Susi Muddiman OAM said the exhibition provided an opportunity to include regional artists in the broader national narrative of artists books and zines. “There is a strong practice of printmaking within the Northern Rivers and artists books have been pursued by these selected artists as either a key element of their practice or as a point of experimentation.” Free admission Gallery open Wed–Sun 10am – 5pm (DST)

By Megan Albany RARELY-SEEN MATERIAL from the State Library of Victoria’s collection of artist books and zines is now on display at the Tweed Regional Gallery and Margaret Olley Art Centre. The exhibition titled, Self-made: zines and artist books, features everything from handmade artist books to low-fi zines and provides an insight into the world of independent publishing. Curator Monica Syrette will hold a preview talk on Friday, March 15, at 5.15pm and will officially open the exhibition at 6pm. The exhibition chronicles the evolution of self-publishing alongside the political movements they were associated with. “The history of zine-making and selfpublishing is inextricably linked to influential counter-cultural movements and social activism,” Ms Syrette said. “Items like sci-fi zines from the 1940s, punk zines from the seventies and contemporary feminist zines are all reflections of the political and cultural movements of the time.” Developed in partnership with the Sticky Institute, it showcases the largest and most comprehensive collection of artist books and zines in Australia. The exhibition was first displayed at the State Library Victoria in Melbourne and is now on a tour of regional Australia. “The artist books in Self-made were ground-breaking and designed to circumvent the commercial gallery system and make art easily available to all,” Ms Syrette said. Featuring 170 works the exhibition includes a dedicated reading lounge as well as works from international artists, local

Has Your Hot Water System Been Checked Lately? Ever Heard of a Sacrificial Anode?

A sacrificial anode is a vital part of your water system, and having it inspected can be the difference between an efficiently working system and a costly replacement. Manufacturers recommend that you maintain the anode in your system in order to prevent damage from rust + corrosion. THE ANODE IN YOUR SYSTEM SHOULD NEVER BE ALLOWED TO CORRODE AWAY, WHATEVER TYPE OR BRAND OF SYSTEM YOU HAVE SOLAR, ELECTRIC, GAS OR HEAT PUMPS

Holding Shot with Judy Tuckey CONDONG’S WOMEN’S Club Select Fours final proved to be a hard day at the office for both teams as Mary Chisholm, Tina Debelle, Elayne Foster and Gil Junor duelled with Maryann Sweetnam, Carolyn Caine, Kay Cusack and Maureen Stanfield for top honours. Whilst Chisholm’s team opened the card and set up a good lead early, team Sweetnam trailed during a hard fought game and was not able to overcome their opposition’s charge in a contest where the scorecard didn’t particularly do justice to the top quality bowls on display. Kingscliff ’s women’s B Grade Pairs was an interesting game as Jane Bonett and Liz Ricks went

head to head with Jan Curtis and Annette Johnson. Scoring was close for the first six ends until Curtis and co fired up and collected 11 shots during the following 5 ends to give them a 10 shot buffer. A valiant fight back from Bonett and Ricks narrowed the gap with Curtis and Johnson holding on well to close the game with a narrow margin. WBNSW conducted their inaugural Summer Leagues finals at Blacktown Workers Club in Sydney last week end with thirteen teams entering the fray from Districts within the State. Pottsville’s Coral Nathan, Desley Watterson and Sue Lawrance were there in the mix, all fired up and ready to go, following on from their success at District qualifiers at Condong earlier on. Teams were apportioned in two

sections with the Pottsville Pelicans being drawn in Section 1 in a field of 7 teams. Section 2 was allocated 6 teams. Day One and 3 games of 15 ends were on the cards. Whilst the ladies lost their first round against Workies Wildlife by minimal shots, they then lifted to win round 2 against Merimbula by 2 shots and then enjoyed a break courtesy of a bye in Round 3. Day 2, with 4 rounds left to play in Section 1 and only 2 in Section 2, WB rearranged the schedule for the tournament to be complete after just 5 rounds, therefore denying teams in Round 1 the opportunity to increase their points scores to the utmost as the last 2 rounds in Section 1 were not played. However, Pottsville carried on with their winning streak to defeat Tumut by a ginormous 16 shots and Towradgi by 2, giving them an overall total of 8 + 18 points on the leader board and second place

Kirra Teams Challenge on 22nd, 23rd and 24th of March

Often said to be the most prestigious surfing teams title in the World, the Kirra Teams Challenge with be on Friday week, and there are 36 clubs vying for the glory of lifting the Kirra Eagle aloft. Once again the mighty Snapper Rocks Surfriders will looms one of the favourites, but 35 other clubs from Noosa to Western Australia will be at either Duranbah or Kirra to try and win. Narrabeen are the defending champions, and they will be pumped to try and defend their title. They like Snapper have a red hot team of seasoned and up and coming professionals, but look out for the underdogs with Cabarita, Kingscliff having a big go, and other such as host club Kirra Surfriders and Burleigh Boardriders more than capable of an upset win. Well worth checking out, some of the best surfing outside of the World Tour you will see.

Oils is Oil and it could Bight

Well big oil is looking at drilling in the Great Australian Bight, and as we all know the Great Southern Ocean is one of the most powerful forces in the world, and a mishap with an oil rig would spell disaster for Australia’s waters. Our Government is not listening so lets make them take notice. Patagonia and Surfrider Foundation are putting on a paddle out at 10am, Burleigh Beach, Sunday 17th March. They are asking the public to come on down and help make some noise! Bring a canoe, a surfboard, a log, a boat or just yourself. If you can’t paddle out then please come anyway! Banners and signs are welcomed. Norwegian company Equinor have formally released their draft environmental plan for deep water oil drilling in the Great Australian Bight. Drilling in the Bight is deep and it’s risky. Oil spill modelling shows oil on beaches between Margaret River in the west and Port Macquarie in the east. Wildlife, marine ecologies, local industries and communities would all be devastated. It would be a catastrophe on every level. If Equinor are allowed to sink that first well, the Bight officially becomes an oil field. There is no going back. It’s a crucial time to take a stand. The Bight is one of the last great tracts of marine wilderness in the world, and it needs to remain wild. This is your chance to tell them that Big Oil does not belong in the Great Australian Bight. Equinor’s environment plan is before industry regulator NOPSEMA and is open to public comment, closing on March 20th. It’s important you have your say.

were not played by the contestants to determine the winner of this section. Not only that, it may have also altered the placings of all the teams. At least Section 2, with 6 teams competing, was completed with all 5 rounds played. Sounds like a very uneven playing field? What a schmozzle! One can only hope and trust that WBNSW can get their act together next year and be more organised.

Strong breezes challenge sailors A STRONG fleet of 17 boats with 36 crew competed in Race 7 of the Tweed Valley Sailing Clubs Summer Point score. The big event today was heat 4, the final heat, of the four race Corsair Class Championship. It started with a lovely sunny day with a gentle 10 knot nor easterly but before it was over the breeze was up to 20 knots and put the fleet to the test. Two multihulls dominated line honors; Hobie 16 Sledder (with Club Vice Commodore Dave Chester and Isaac Poulsen) easily taking first place, and first finisher in 1 hour and 12 minutes while 14 minutes back was Weta, “Scored a Tri” (John Cook and Saffron Cook) First mono hull was single hander, Impulse “Itchy Coo” (Tim Brown) in 1 hour 36 min and second was 14ft 2 handed Tasar, “Near Perfect” (Justin Johnson and Kirra Johnson) 40 seconds back. Next came 14ft two handed NS14 “Impulsive Max” (Robert Preston and Rachael O’Hara) then Impulse “Rosie” (Adam Hurt) all finishing with 30 seconds of each other. In the final race of the North Coast Corsair Championship, first home was “Swell Lady” (Monique Smith, Matt Andrews and Deb Flannery). This win wraps up a perfect season for Swell Lady getting 4 wins and winning the series for the 3rd year in a row. Next Corsair was “Nimbis” (Scott Jones and Deb Jones) but due to them sailing shorthanded, they received a time adjustment which placed them back in the order. The Corsair is a 3-person boat and although they are easily sailed 2 handed, this is time sanctioned under club rules. Scoring the points for 2nd place, “Keenas” (Mark Reynolds, Craig Foley and Marg Walgers) 8 minutes back and then 1 minute further back was “Minnow” (Andrew Jaggers, Tara Gough and Phil Young) The stronger breeze towards the finish challenged the sailors and two Corsairs were capsized, although they are easily righted, it usually ruins any chance of a good placing. This week the club sail goodbye to a long term member, Mike Mansted. From Mullumbimby. Mike has sailed the club Tasar for the Next weekend the sailing club will travel to the very popular “Big River Regatta” at Harwood on the Clarence River. Next racing at Fingal Head will be on the 24th of March. Beginners are always welcome at the sailing club and volunteer support assistants are also welcome.

Moase boys go to town for Cudgen while McKay leads the way for Schooners

IT WAS the start of the final round in the Two Day LJ Hooker League with second place Cudgen taking on fourth placed Pottsville at Seabreeze on Saturday, March 6. Cudgen won the toss and elected to bat with Pat Rosser and Connor Ziebell opening batting but brought down with only 20 runs in the bag off some great bowling from Sabah Syed and Jamie Bennett. Connor Ziebell stepped up to make a half century, taken out by Ryan McCloy on 54, while Conor McDowell scored 33. It was ultimately Syed who did the most damage for Potty taking 4/32 to keep the Hornets at bay, all out for 190 after 79 overs. McCloy and Jayden Hoare took two wickets each. Jamie Tripp was also in top form taking three catches in what was a great days play for the Pelicans. Murwillumbah took on competition leaders Lennox Head at home, looking for a strong finish to the season. They won the toss and went in to bat. Things weren’t going all that swimmingly until Pommie import Will Chapples stepped up to the crease, bringing redemption to the team with 67 not out, with Jackson Agius next best on 14. The Panthers were all out for 114.

Lennox went in to bat and it was a master class which showed why they are in pole position going in to the finals, with openers Callan scoring 108 not out and Lindsay 75 not out after 24 overs for a total of 0/195. To say the Panthers have their work cut out is a bit of an understatement but they will have nothing to lose and could always pull out the old Steven Bradbury on their final day’s play for 2019. Either way it should be a fun day next Saturday at Rabjones Oval.

Coastal League

Pottsville played Terranora at Terranora with the hosts sending Pottsville in to bat. Troy Thoms was the best of the batsmen on 34 while Jack Corliss scored 28, all out for 161 off the back of some good bowling from Josh Kinneally taking 3/21 with David Parkes, Corey Fisher and Ian Rowlings taking two wickets each. Ian Rowlings took two catches. Josh Kinneally opened the batting for Terranora with 63 while Steve Harris got 66 not out to overtake Potty with the loss of only three wickets and 163 runs. Oscar Van Megchelen took two wickets and Oskar Scholz took one. Murwillumbah had a bye and Cudgen played Byron at Byron, winning the toss and batting first.

Craig Wilson opened and top scored with 58 runs with Harvey Moase next best on 19 for a total of 7/157 at the end of the 40 overs. In reply Byron were humiliated really, all out for 62 courtesy of some brilliant bowling from the Moase family with Harvey taking 4 for 8 and Chris taking 4 for 9.

Thirsty Thirds

It was the final round before the semi finals and the Stubbies had a bye while the Kegs played Pottsville at Ron Wilkinson Fields. Pottsville sent the Kegs into bat, with Shane Wilson top scoring on 56 before being taken down by Dave Lamb who took 3/48 and was the best of the bowlers. Scott Bruce scored 43 while Steve Allan and Johnathan Regen both took two wickets. The Kegs were all out for 259. Troy Singh opened for Pottsville with another half century before retiring but it was Brodie McDowell who top scored on 60 helping to take Pottsville to the win at 6/261. Tony Holdway was the top bowler for the Kegs taking 3/31. The Bobcats played Cabarita and took the win with no details available. The Schooners played Cudgen 2, winning the toss, batting first and going to town.

Sabah Syed bowling up a storm for Pottsville

The three starters did a great job of building the run tally especially Dale Buckpitt who scored 67 and was looking like the legend until Andrew McKay stepped up to the crease and smacked the ball around the park for a whopping 140 runs not out (who knows what he might have ended up with if he could have kept on batting) leading the team to 415 with a hand from Doug Slockee who scored 69. It was a great team effort and once again put the rest of the competition on notice. In reply Cudgen 2 were all out for a still very respectable 9/237 with no batting breakdown available. Chris Humphries took 3/27 while Michael Strange took 2/15. The Murwillumbah Cougars played Cudgen 1 with Cudgen opening the batting. Pete Mamone was a standout once again scoring 75 not out with Dean Mangold 52

Rowston on his way to Aussie Powerlifting titles A CASUARINA powerlifter has qualified for the Australian Championships in June after competing at the Avia Performance Cup in Melbourne on March 3. Cale Rowston competed in the 105 kg class after a long break from competition. “I knew I was capable of getting the numbers, I just had to have a good day, Rowston said. “I was looking to get a 265 or 270 kg in the Squat and I lifted 270kg which was 10 kg above my personal best. “I was aiming for around 185kg in the Bench Press - I lifted 186kg - and around 330kg in the Deadlift and I lifted 315kg, 6 kg over my PB. “My total was 771kg which is a 6kg total personal best. “I feel stoked to be back on the platform and it was a good warm up comp for National in June where I’ll be hoping to be top three, if not first.” “I had a few injuries last year - I spent most of last year rehabbing my adductur which was injured from lifting and surfing and I think my body was just giving up,” he said. Rowston started competing in 2015 and in 2017 was picked to represent Australia in the world championships in Belaruse in the 93kg class where he came ninth in

Cale Rowston on his way to qualifying

the world and third in the world with a bronze in the 93 kg Deadlift. “I had a couple of weeks over there by myself and that was a really cool experience,” he said. “After that I went to the 2017 Australian titles and shortly after that I tore my adductor so this is my first competition since then. “I have to win the National to make the World Titles in Calgary in October and I have a chance to win at the Australian Titles. “There are three or four in the 105 kg class that I’m up there with and they take the top two to the worlds.”

Rowston has been lifting weights since he was a little kid and now coaches powerlifting at his Chinderah business Rowston Conditioning. “I started personal training in 2013 and at the start of 2014 I had enough clients to open this business - I get mostly football players including most the Raiders, soccer players, surfers and powerlifters here.” Rowston is taking a break from his front row position at the Tweed Coast Raiders until after the world titles which will be good news for the opposition but he will be back.

not out. At the end of the 40 overs the Cougars were 8/230. Sean Bowden took 3/42 and Paul Swift took 3/25. In what must have been a thrilling finish if you’d been there, which I wasn’t, the Cougars overtook Cudgen to make 9/232 at the end of the 40 overs. Simarjeet Singh top scored with 55 not out, Paul Dillon made 51 not out and Bowden scored 44 in a good team effort. Jamin Stewart took two wickets for Cudgen. In the semi-finals next week the Schooners take on Cudgen 2 at Ron Wilkinson Field while Cabarita take on the Bobcats at Black Rocks so good luck to everyone and well done to Cudgen 1, the Cougars, Pottsville, the Kegs and the Stubbies for giving it a red hot go and providing some great competition this season. We hope to see you all back again next year.

Uki Python’s Gala Day fun for all

THE UKI Python’s have a Gala Day this Friday night March 15, with fun on tap for all the family. The kids fun kicks off at 4.30pm with a kids blow-up soccer field, a kids versus parents game, information for all junior coaches and parents as well as team sign-ons. There will be a barbecue and the canteen will be open. This will be followed by a trial women’s game at 6.30pm against Nimbin and the men kick off against Nimbin at 8pm. The bar will be open but no BYO. Team fees with the Active Kids voucher are 5-7 years $25, 8-12 years $45, 13-18 year $75, over 18 years $290. Without the voucher add $100 for each category. Uki Pythons stalwart Joe Scholl said the club was looking to get bigger and better. “We have a whole new committee,” he said. “Our women’s team took out the championship last year in 5th grade and our men won the 2nd grade premiership. “We are still looking for six to eight senior players to strengthen an already talented side. “The fees are cheaper than other clubs and it’s a really great social club with no pressures and plenty of fun. “Tumbulgum Rangers are now fielding a senior men’s team as well, which is great for Tumbulgum and the senior men’s competition.” If anyone is interested in sponsoring this fun, family-friendly club contact Ben De Vellis on b_devellis@hotmail.com
