Rail trail consultation possible

TWEED SHIRE Council Mayor Katie Milne has described the recent decision by the Federal Government to match State funding for the $13-million Murwillumbah to Crabbes Creek Rail Trail as a “controversial decision without any evidence of support”. Her comments followed a joyous celebration at the former Murwillumbah Rail Station platform where long-term supporters and members of the Northern Rivers Rail Trail Group met with Minister for Regional Development John McVeigh, Member for Lismore Thomas George, Member for Tweed Geoff Provest as well as local Councillors. Mr McVeigh announced that the Federal Government would provide $6.5 million dollars in funding to match State Government funding for the proposed Tweed Valley Rail Trail, which will form part of the Northern Rivers Rail Trail. “I’m happy to be here to congratulate the local community on the delivery of the rail trail and the five other vital projects,” Dr McVeigh said on Friday, February 2. However, Mayor Milne, who moved a motion in late 2017 to investigate a Shire-wide survey to gauge support for the rail trail, said the funding announcement was “highly controversial”. “I am very surprised State and Federal Governments supported this project without any evidence of the level of support in the community,” she said. “Whilst the majority of Councillors support a Rail Trail, they also

recognised that the community had not been adequately consulted about this. “Last September Councillors supported a motion I put forward to survey the community and a report on the proposed process will be presented at this February meeting.” Mayor Milne told The Weekly that her personal view is that it would be “crazy to rip up and tar the rail track as proposed”. “A regional train could transport thousands of tourists between our North Coast towns and provide a sorely lacking sustainable public transport option for our residents,” she said. “We only have a short window to get climate change under control, so our efforts need to be focused on essential and sustainable infrastructure like public transport, not frivolous toys like this.” At their February 15 meeting, councillors will vote whether to undertake shire-wide consultation on the future of the rail corridor, which could delay the commencement of the project. If councillors vote to undertake consultation, it is recommended an external provider completes a randomly-sampled survey costing in the order of $20,000 to $50,000. Mayor Milne also highlighted a forecast annual maintenance bill for the Rail Trail, which she said could be as high as $500,000 per year to maintain the trail. “And now all of a sudden the responsibility for the expected $300,000 - $500,000 annual maintenance bill that we were all led to believe would be

funded by State Rail is in question, with advice that there is only $1.5 million to maintain all of the State’s 3,000km of unused rail lines, and the $750,000 that was previously thought to be currently allocated to the Murwillumbah to Casino section has disappeared in a puff of smoke,” she said. A Tweed Shire Council spokesperson told The Weekly the rail trail maintenance is expected to cost between $250,000 and $300,000 per year, however, “it is yet to be determined where these funds will come from”. A report from Council’s Director of Engineering to councillors at their upcoming February 15 meeting recommends the Federal Government funding is accepted, before the March 2 deadline. “The Regional Jobs and Investment Packages grant agreement will require commencement of the project within 12 weeks of signing the agreement,” the report reads. “This timeframe can only be achieved if the NSW Legislation is amended to allow removal of the train tracks. “The proposed governance model for the rail trail is a Trust under Crown Lands NSW. In this model Council is not the manager of the trail and is not responsible for funding maintenance.” A recent 24-hour poll carried out by ABC North Coast, to gauge people’s views on the rail trail vs a train line, found that of 1822 votes, 59 per cent voted in favour of a train line. It should be noted however that the ABC’s survey may have included residents from outside the Tweed Shire and was only designed as a gauge of public opinion.

“The Greens use data supplied directly by the Government’s Gaming regulator,” Mr Field said. “The Greens buy this data from the Government because it is not made available through freedom of information laws or by the industry themselves. “We publish it so the community can see the true impact of poker machines gambling on local communities. “Clubs NSW and the Government are quick to point to old studies of gambling addiction impacting just 0.8 per cent of the population but they fail to acknowledge that three out of four people suffering gambling addiction are addicted to poker machines. “They also ignore harm studies that show people who don’t have addiction also experience high levels of impact from using these machines.”

“It seems Mr Field is more interested in spreading misinformation in order to invent a crisis to suit his agenda, rather than dealing in facts. “Here’s a few. New South Wales has one of the lowest rates of problem gambling in the world at just 0.8 per cent of the adult population.” Mr Ball also pointed out that registered clubs are not-for-profit and exist for community benefit. “There are 14 clubs in the Tweed, with more than 109,000 memberships and 845 employees,” he said. “These clubs pay $23.3 million in taxes annually and provide a $29.8 million social contribution, which includes funding for schools, hospitals and a variety of worthy causes, including charities, community groups and local sporting teams.” In response Mr Field said the figures were “accurate”.

CLUBS NSW Chief Executive Officer Anthony Ball has refuted gaming machine figures released by Greens MLC Justin Field recently, stating the expenditure figure was “inflated by $15 million” Mr Ball wrote to The Weekly following the report and said the figures released by Mr Field and published in the article ‘Tweed gaming machine figures released’ were “inaccurate”. The Greens highlighted in several media releases that $2.1 million was being poured into Tweed Shire gaming machines each week with a total net profit of $86.1 million for the year ending August 31, 2017. “To point out the most glaring error, the expenditure figure over the course of a year was inflated by $15 million,” he said in a letter to the editor.

Kingscliff parking woes

Jeremy (TVW, Feb 1, page 24) parking problems at this stage does not account for the expected visitors to Central park (Kingscliff not the Casuarina one). Must be enjoyable for the coffee drinkers taking in the fumes as cars do the circuit. Would you like diesel or unleaded fumes with you latte? Blind Fredy/Fredericka could see that the design of the park needed extra parking bays/area to cater for the park. To me Central Park is designed the wrong way around as it should be near the bowls club with extra bays on the north side. A long walk to the patrolled beach but not as long as what will happen. Did council do a traffic impact survey on the expected extra visitors, like a private development application would have to go through. They spent enough money on the “sell” with their shop front display that did not show future extra parking. The saga over building heights has overlooked the future beach parking problems with the expected development of Kings Forest and others if you want to go to the beach you have three options. Kingscliff, Salt and Cabarita patrolled beaches that already have reached their saturation point in parking. As we have see over the border traffic is the big ongoing problem. Can Tweed Coast Way handle the extra traffic especially if the hospital is built at Cudgen? Traffic gridlock getting off and on the highway and down the coast would happen. Trying to now expand the Way would be a council minefield over endangered species etc but if nothing happens they will have to avoid the emissions as we sit waiting. At Kingscliff let’s do the Sydney beach thing and put in parking meters and like the new council clean up ratepayers get two free

On one hand I see how gambling can fund clubs and provide a wonderful place for many people, particularly older isolated people to enjoy a meal, dancing and a safe social environment. In the other bad the effects of addiction gambling can ruin families. My understanding is that measures are being taken to monitor problem gambling individuals and this should continue with clubs banning and monitoring them. I suggest they may still find another way to gamble anyway. My concern is the lack of gambling taxes going toward supporting sport in this country. The clubs are required to fund sports, however, they pour most money into their own sports such as bowls, darts, league that benefit the club. The UK have reinvigorated their sporting clubs with taxes and it’s time for the Australian/State Governments to provide more of these profits directly back to state associations to employ coaches and administrators in city and regional Australia for the benefit of our children’s health. Sharon Buchanan, Tweed

Having your say

Our say would be best done by an open and honest debate through newspapers and social media. The younger generations (say under 40s) do not have the time to think too deeply about issues but I am confident they would be prepared to like or dislike issues presented to them. The issues need to be presented with concise honest information to be considered. In our democracy it is important that everybody has their say. Far too many sit on the fence then complain if things don’t go the way they thought it should. There used to be a system of democracy in place where we had councillors who lived in an area and represented the people in that area, division or ward. Now we have councillors who represent the members of political parties. They do not seem to represent everybody. Would you contact a councillor for help whose thoughts are only for their party and graduating from local government to state or federal politics? We may as well have an administrator and an ombudsman to help us rather than councillors.

Tweed Valley Weekly Locals Supporting Locals Our community organisations also require a revamping. These organisations established to represent their community often become a close knit group of people who want to dominate the community with their political agendas rather than seeking to find out what the community requires. If you do not join their group and attend their meetings you do not have a say. Council takes notice of these groups at the expense of individuals. These groups should have their activities posted on social media and in the newspapers so that their activities can be scrutinised by the community they say they represent. J King, Cudgen

Tweed water to Qld

In the past it seems that South East Queensland suffers more from water shortage than the Tweed. Why else did they waste billions building the desalination plant? For us to spend $15m on a pipeline - the main purpose of which would most possibly be to supply Queensland with our water, is “misguided”. Use this money to go ahead with our second dam at Byrill Creek - on the land that previous councils (who had a much better grasp of realities) had planned. Kevin Sharpley, Tweed

B-Double impacts

The information in the recent paper (TVW Feb 1) that Tweed Shire Traffic Committee had recommended that 55.5 tonne B-Double trucks be allowed to use Kyogle Rd through Uki and Murwillumbah is unbelievable. Anyone that knows the road will be aware that it is a very dangerous windy road, with a poor surface and very poor record of fatalities. Perusing the committee I found that the decision was unanimous. The makeup of the committee consisted of two National Party proxies, a Liberal Tweed Shire Councillor, a Policeman and a representative of Roads and Maritime Services. Nowhere did it state their expertise or capacity to make such a decision. Fortunately the Council voted to defer the decision until more information could be obtained regarding road degradation by the use of these huge trucks. The figures that I am now going to relate can be easily verified from any Road Engineer. The accepted fact is that trucks cause exponentially a far greater damage than ordinary cars. The figures will blow you away. Using the accepted “generalised fourth

power laws” (Google it) this truck in its fully loaded state will cause the same damage as 23087 cars per trip! Six trips a day and four at weekend meaning 38 fully loaded trips. That is the equivalent of an extra 877,306 cars per week. If you add the 38 unladen trips where each trip equates to 256 cars giving you another 9728 per week for a grand total of 887,034. The extra damage caused by nearly a million extra cars a week will undoubtedly be extensive. The result being increased cost to the ratepayers of the Shire. You and I will pay. For what you may ask. Of course it’s for the purpose of someone selling our natural asset (water) of which of course we have heaps. Raise the dam maybe. It seems to me that our Council representative on the Committee is paying scant regard to the damage that will be caused. Hopefully these figures might give him some reasons to think again. Not much hope of re-election if you are found to have caused massive road repair costs through ill thought out decisions. I rest my case. Gwyn Hooper, Uki

Urliup Road damage

I am writing in response to your article on wear and tear of water tankers on shire roads (TVW Feb 1, page 3). Urliup Road has been the victim of water tankers for some years, first 19-metre water tankers and now seven-metre tankers plying the road 84 times a week, every week, all year long, including weekends, thanks to Tweed Shire Council staff for recommending the enormous amount of trips allowed. Neither Council nor the water tankers observe school bus hours on a narrow winding road posted not suitable for heavy traffic. Inconsiderate and disrespectful to our children, to say the least. A drive along Urliup Road will prove beyond a shred of doubt the damage to the road surface. it is ripped and torn to shreds, especially on corners and hills. It will not take the hubble telescope to observe the enormous damage these tankers have inflicted on Urliup Road. If one travels up to Bilambil Heights you will experience additional road damage around Bilambil and all the way up the hill as the trucks are loaded with tons upon tons (water is very heavy) repeatedly traveling north to the depot in Queensland. Resurfacing, as has just been completed in recent weeks, cannot remove the undulations and potholes and very very quickly

the surface is worn away and additional damage inflicted. I do not have to remind you all road works are at the expense of ratepayers so one person can make his fortune without contributing one lousy cent to the Tweed Shire. Not only do road users have to endure demolition of Urliup Road, but have to negotiate the tankers who force other vehicles off the road and refuse to back up along the narrow winding sections, trying to force motorists to back around blind corners into oncoming traffic. Having water mining in your area is a nightmare. Urliup Road for years and years, was a tourist destination because of its stunning beauty and now it is simply a industrial beat up road and deserted by all recreational users. A shame when Tweed Shire on one hand promotes tourism and with the other hand destroys the amenities that draws tourists. Barbara Downes, Urliup

Cane Toad challenge

I appreciate Nola Firth’s letter (TVW 25/1/18) and the issue she raises of how to kill cane toads humanely. When I drop cane toads into the bucket containing day-old urine, they generally die in less than 10 seconds – it is very quick. We then dig a hole and bury them on our property. I also note that the number of cane toad tadpoles the female cane toad can lay is around 30,000, yes 30,000 each time. And I am told by reliable sources that she can lay up to three times each year. The potential numbers are absolutely huge. When you have the numbers of cane toadlets (hundreds) and cane toads we are finding on our property it presents a huge challenge. A few weeks ago when I went out hunting I collected 42 cane adult toads in one night, with the total tally for the week at around 130. And how many of us have an empty freezer and the capacity to put the cane toads, one by one, into a plastic bag or bags and then put them in our home freezer? This would be a pretty hard ask for most of us. Cane toads are an introduced pest in scourge proportions. This is very unfortunate, but it is the reality of what we are dealing with. I know that a university in Queensland is working on developing some biological controls – and hopefully some other alternatives might be available in the near future. I have better things to do with my time than to go hunting cane toads. Gayle Russell, Nunderi

Long fought victory for rail trail THE WEEKLY recently caught up with former Tweed Shire Council Mayor and long-time campaigner for the rail trail Barry Longland, to get his views on the recent Federal Government announcement to part fund the trail. The following information was supplied to The Weekly by Mr Longland, who has included some of the history of the rail trail project. By Barry Longland

AN INDEPENDENT study completed in 2013 (the ARUP report) identified the cost of returning rail to the Murwillumbah to Casino corridor as $952M. The report also found no business case for large scale freight services along the corridor and demand for a local commuter service between Murwillumbah and Casino falls far short of that required for financial viability. In the five years since the ARUP study, the corridor has further deteriorated, particularly in relation to the many bridge crossings. By 2014, as Tweed Mayor, I met with State and Federal government representatives on both sides of the political divide and it became very apparent that neither the funding nor the political will existed to pursue the return of trains. My concerns and those of the Councillors at that time were the preservation of the corridor in public ownership and other possible reuse options for a valuable community asset. It was clear from the outset that funding a significant regional community and tourism asset would be beyond the means of local Councils. Therefore, funding through various State and Federal regional development grant programs was pursued.

Along the way, it became clear that a staged approach to building a Northern Rivers Rail Trail would be the best option in gaining the necessary ‘startup’ funding. Because of its potential to maximise on the tourist possibilities, our Shire population and the Council’s support for the project, the section of the corridor within the Tweed Shire was selected as Stage 1. A detailed business case was prepared by Council staff and that formed the basis of our funding applications to a number of grant programs in partnership with NRRT Inc. After a few attempts, NRRT were thrilled when the State Minister for Tourism announced in August last year that the State would fund $6.5M of the $13M needed to complete the Tweed stage. This was contingent on the Federal Government agreeing to match the State’s commitment so it wasn’t yet time to celebrate. We at NRRT were always confident that the Federal Government’s assessment of the return on investment for this project was very attractive but they also needed commitment of matching funds. That brings us to last Friday’s announcement by the Federal Minister for Regional Development that the Commonwealth will provide the additional $6.5M to make Stage 1 a reality. Now it is time to celebrate and such a relief for all those who have worked so hard in achieving this outcome for our region. With estimates of around 100 thousand users per annum on the trail, this promises to breathe new life into Murwillumbah business and the villages of Stokers Siding, Burringbar, Mooball and Crabbes Creek. Visitors will have the opportunity to cycle or hike through some of the most spectacular

First Council agenda

scenery on Australia’s east coast and the availability of such a great passive recreation asset will be a boon for the local community. During the preparation of the business case, Council staff consulted all landowners adjacent to the corridor and their concerns were addressed in the document. As well, the State Government’s promised community consultation is nearing completion. While it is true that there is not complete agreement within the wider community for the rail trail concept, it is clear that there is a significant majority who see the economic and tourism benefits for this investment and majority support on the Council has remained consistent. There are some vocal advocates for the return of trains on the Murwillumbah to Casino tracks and their views need to be respected. However, they target the rail trail initiative as marking the end of any opportunity for trains to return and have campaigned strongly against it. To them I would caution, doing nothing will not protect and retain this corridor in public ownership. The trains will not return on this old corridor in the foreseeable future and, if some future regime found the need to bring back trains, then the corridor would still be available. Also, claims that the creation of the rail trail will prevent a train service being built connecting Murwillumbah to the Gold Coast serve only to confuse the debate. There is a common thread in the debate about the rail trail and that is the preservation of a very valuable community asset. An asset that will deliver economic, social and environmental outcomes to our residents and, for that reason, I think the whole community should join the celebration.

TWEED SHIRE Councillors are set to face a mammoth Ordinary Meeting on Thursday, February 15, with 54 motions across 600 pages, including several hot ticket items such as proposed consultation over the Tweed Valley Rail Trail (see page 3). First up, Councillors will receive three petitions for the, including one containing 84 signatures objecting to the use of the former Border Park at Tweed Heads for use as parking during the Commonwealth Games. The second relates to traffic at Pottsville and contains 55 signatures highlighting “poor vision” for drivers when exiting Elizabeth Grove. The third petition contains 23 signatures and calls on Council to address the amount of traffic not adhering to the 50km per hour speed limit at Scenic Drive, Bilambil Heights. “We have all witnessed traffic (trucks, cars, motorbikes) exceeding the speed limit which does create a dangerous situation for all residents getting in and out of their driveways,” the petition reads. One of the first big agenda items is an appeal from the developer of a yet to be determined five-storey building at 26 Marine Parade, Kingscliff. “Council is in receipt of a Class One Appeal in the NSW Land and Environment Court (LEC) for deemed refusal of DA17/0498,” the report summary reads. “Given the time that has lapsed since lodgement of the DA, the applicant has lodged an appeal to the NSW Land and Environment Court (LEC) against Council’s ‘deemed refusal’ of the development application.” Councillors are being called upon to delegate their authority to the General Manager of Tweed Shire Council to act on their behalf and vote on either recommendation (A) or (B), both of which refuse the application for multiple reasons. Another big agenda item is a notice of motion from Mayor Katie Milne to seek legal advice in relation to the Private Native Forestry operation at Limpinwood, including whether the matter should be referred to the Federal Government under the Environment Protection Biodiversity Conservation Act and if there is a capacity for Council to act on potential breaches of the State Government licence or to challenge that approval. Councillors will have plenty of other hot local items to discuss and vote on including the naming of the new Kingscliff park with suggestions so far including “Rowan Robinson Park”, “Goodjinburra Park”, “Royal Gardens Reserve”, Kangaroo King Park”, or “Pandanus Park” to name a few.

Kingscliff’s Marine Parade to close at night for resurfacing Lismore City

Council contractors will undertake night works to resurface Marine Parade, between Turnock and Seaview streets, Kingscliff, this month. The road will be closed to all traffic during the work, which will take seven nights over two weeks starting on Sunday 18 February. The road closure will be from 6pm to 6am nightly from Sunday 18 to Tuesday 20 February (and possibly Wednesday 21 February) and again from Tuesday 27 February to Thursday 1 March. All vehicles will need to be removed from the worksite, which includes the off-street carpark, by 7.30pm when the contractor will take possession of the road for the night. Traffic control will be on site from 6pm each night to stop vehicles entering the section and to close the carpark as vehicles leave. Pedestrian access will still be available for diners on the busy strip but they are advised to park outside the work zone and walk to their venue. The heavy machinery will not fire up until 8.30pm, allowing most restaurants to maintain near normal trading hours. Prior to scheduling the work, Council sought advice from the Kingscliff Chamber of Commerce and Kingscliff Ratepayers and Progress Association who nominated that the works be undertaken at night. Council has advised all the businesses in the work zone of the works and road closure. Nearby residents and holiday lets will be affected by noise, and possibly dust, during the works. Signs advising of the road closure and works will be placed on Marine Parade and at the carpark entrance this week.

The new holiday park at Kingscliff takes shape with cabins facing the beach. Central Park is completed and is awaiting commissioning of the electricity supply for various components before it can open to the public. By that time, Marine Parade’s tourist strip will have a shiny new road surface.

New phase for Tweed Heads Museum

Slow down on the roads Council is urging motorists in the shire to slow down and obey all road signs as road repair and construction projects ramp up across shire roads. Since the March 2017 floods, Council has let four packages of repair works to external contractors and will soon let another two. This week, Hazel Bros QLD is expected to mobilise to start work on 66 shire roads to repair flood damage while contractor Brown Bros is continuing repairs on 20 flood-damaged roads. Then, Skeen Constructions is working on the major repair of Tweed Valley Way at Blacks Drain, South Murwillumbah. When the fifth and sixth packages of works are let next week, repair works will start on another 26 roads within weeks. Council also has received funding for Black Spot projects on Tweed Valley Way at Tumbulgum and Kyogle Road near Uki, which will commence soon. “Add to this our normal program of works on our roads installing and repairing stormwater drainage, water mains and wastewater mains and you realise that workers are out there in great numbers and motorists should expect to see them on their daily travels throughout the shire,” Manager Roads and Stormwater Danny Rose said. “We urge all motorists to slow down and obey all signage as the safety of our contractors and staff is put at risk every time a motorist ignores the signs.” Council is receiving reports on a daily basis of motorists speeding through roadworks and even ignoring red light signals, especially at night. “Not only are these motorists risking their own lives and that of their passengers but they are a real threat to our workforce and other road users. “Every week we publish details of our programmed roadworks in the Road Wrap in Tweed Link and online at www.tweed.nsw.gov.au/RoadWorks and advise motorists to check this before they travel.” All up, the March 2017 flood left more than 1500 damage items across the Tweed’s road and bridge network at an estimated repair cost of $28.9 million. To date, more than 1000 damage items have been repaired. See ‘Road wrap’ on the following page.

The Tweed Regional Museum on Kennedy Drive at Tweed Heads has enjoyed a new lease of life over the summer following the first stage of an ongoing upgrade. Extended summer opening hours will come to an end this week after a busy holiday season with regular opening hours returning from Tuesday 6 February to accommodate ongoing redevelopment of the site. Museum Director Judy Kean said the feedback received from visitors to the refurbished Court House, originally located in Wharf Street, has been very positive. “New displays emphasising the history of the Court House have been particularly well received and the large projections featuring film footage from the 1950s and historic images from the Museum collection have also been a real hit with visitors,” Ms Kean said. “We are also delighted that members of the Tweed Heads Historical Society, now relocated to their purpose-built research centre and office, are once again able to offer important research services to members of the public.” Regular opening hours until the end of June 2018 will be Tuesdays and Wednesdays, 10am – 4pm and the fourth Sunday of each month, 10am – 4pm. Work will begin in mid-March on a new entry into the Museum precinct and the Court House building from the carpark. The site will remain open during these works however there may be some inconvenience and alternative temporary paths of entry to the Court House. Ms Kean said other work taking place on site over the next six months includes the refurbishment and reopening of Boyd’s Shed. “This wonderful building, long used by the famous Boyd family, has a rich history and is full of stories,” she said.

The next phase of the Tweed Heads Museum refurbishment will begin in mid-March with work starting on the precinct entry, carpark and the historic Boyd’s Shed.

“Thanks in part to a grant received under the NSW Department of Environment and Heritage grant program, we’ll be bringing these stories to life again. “These works will be ongoing in stages between now and June and we’re very much looking forward to having this beautiful and historic site and its heritage buildings fully open to the public again from June.” For further information about opening hours and displays, visit the Museum website museum.tweed.nsw.gov.au email trm@tweed.nsw.gov.au or phone (02) 6670 2493.

Instead of using the car for your daily commute, maybe skate, jog, Segway®, cycle or walk to work.

Find an alternative and go car free this February A Northern Rivers social justice organisation is challenging residents to get a clear perspective on local transport options by going car free for a day. Social Futures, an organisation that works closely with councils in the region including Tweed, is calling on locals to walk, share a ride or travel by public transport on Tuesday February 27 to promote Car Free February. The promotion aims to get participants to consider what they would do if suddenly they didn’t have a car to get around – a situation that is everyday reality for many Tweed residents. Council’s Program Leader – Sustainability Debbie Firestone said Car Free February also served as an opportunity to reflect on sustainable options and reducing emissions. “On average, about one-third of our greenhouse gas emissions come from transport fuels, so carpooling to school or work, taking community transport or using the bus where its available

is an important way to reduce our carbon footprint,” Ms Firestone said. “Public and active transport options are a great way to lighten our impact on the planet. “While many of us living in a rural or regional area find it very difficult to find alternative travel arrangements, Car Free February offers everyone a chance to look for more social options such as reaching out to a friend or a neighbour for a ride.” Participants who share their experiences online go into a draw for prizes including travel vouchers, premium music service subscriptions and free weekly bus passes.

Get your kids active and reap the $100 incentive Council is getting behind a NSW Government initiative to help get young people involved in organised sports and other physical activities. The Active Kids program offers $100 vouchers which can be used towards the cost of registration fees for sports clubs or other organised activity groups, such as dance classes or swimming lessons. Every NSW student 18 and under is eligible for one voucher a year, which can then be redeemed with any registered Active Kids provider. Council’s Operations Coordinator – Parks Matt McCann said the voucher system was a great opportunity to increase participation in local sports and other organisations. “Not only does this program support active and healthy lifestyles by getting young people involved in physical activity but it also helps to strengthen our community,” Mr McCann said. “The clubs, classes and organisations which will benefit from this program are an important part of many people’s lives in Tweed Shire. “The cost of organised sports and activities can easily be a burden for families, especially those with multiple children involved,

Living and Loving the Tweed

and hopefully this program relieves some of that pressure.” Eligible providers must offer structured activities of no less than eight weeks’ duration that provide moderate to vigorous levels of physical activity. Providers must register with the Active Kids program prior to accepting vouchers, which can be done at www.sport.nsw.gov.au/activekids after 1 March. Council’s Supervisor – Aquatic Programs Jeff Collier said vouchers will definitely be able to be used for Tweed Regional Aquatic Centre learn-to-swim programs. “I believe that the Active Kids program is a great way for the NSW Government to subsidise school-aged children to learn to swim,” Mr Collier said. “Drowning is still one of the most common causes of accidental death in children, so being able to swim is an essential lifesaving skill. “Swimming is also just lots of fun for people of all ages and children especially love getting in the water and enjoying themselves.” For more information, including how to obtain vouchers, visit the website or call the Active Kids enquiry line on 13 77 88.

“They are running lunch time events for new Year 7 students and actively seeking out students who are struggling to find friendship groups and introducing them to groups in their year level.” Mt St Patrick College has two students volunteering in the Solomon Islands for six months running a literacy program for students and the college recently had several students attend a 'Schoolies with a difference' trip to Nepal. Mr Clohesy said he was pleased to welcome several new staff this year. “We have a new Learning Support Coordinator Mrs Angela Finkel, a new Science teacher Mrs Lauren Frankham, a new Music teacher Mr Mitchel Rice and a new English teacher Mrs Sarah Ellison. The College also has three new trainees who are former students of the College including Ms Chloe Saddler, Ms Georgia Baker and Mr Sidney Ewing. “As far as messages to local parents go, I would like to ensure they know that Mt St Patrick College continues to offer a Catholic secondary education that aims to develop students spiritually, academically and socially in a safe environment that is accepting and welcoming,” Mr Clohesy said. “The College continues to achieve excellent HSC results but more importantly provides a holistic education that aims to prepare students for all facets of life beyond secondary school.”

MOUNT SAINT Patricks College in Murwillumbah is near capacity for enrolments this year with a total of 795 students, according to Principal Paul Clohesy, who has also welcomed several new staff members. Mr Clohesy said both staff and students were looking forward to another exciting school year. “Enrolments have increased to a total of 795 which is pretty much capacity for us,” he told The Weekly. “Our goals for the year are to continue to improve as a school in all that we do to ensure the school is an accepting and inclusive place where all students feel safe and are able to achieve their best.” Mr Clohesy outlined several projects planned for the school this year, including renovations to the library. “We have also installed shade sails to provide more areas for students to sit out of the sun and towards the end of last year we installed approximately 300 solar panels to significantly increase our use of solar power,” he said. He said students were also taking a lead role in helping new comers to find friends and feel connected with the college. “Leaders have set themselves the goal of ensuring all students new to the college feel connected and welcomed,” he said.

DPI hits back over private forestry study Beaurepaires keeps staff during rebuild

NSW DEPARTMENT of Primary Industries (DPI) Group Director Forest Policy, Research and Development Nick Milham has sought to set the record straight over what he says were suggestions of clearing private forests across the Tweed Shire. Mr Milham wrote to The Weekly in response to an article published in January 25 titled “DPI push for more forest clearing”. The report was based on a DPI media release titled “Potential for North Coast landholders to branch out” and highlighted that 18,000 North Coast private native forest (PNF) landholders could increase income and create new jobs through “ecologically sustainable forestry operations”. DPI Leader Forests Research Dr Christine Stone said the $750,000 project surveyed more than 600 landholders, wood processors and contractors, and mapped more than five million hectares of North Coast forests. “We have produced a range of practical resources for landholders to assess their own land – a level of data that the North Coast has not had access to before,” she said. “All of the region’s forests have been mapped into timber yield association groups using satellite imagery. “Aerial photography was also used to assess one million hectares of timber resources, with the information consolidated into forest growth status and site productivity maps,” Dr Stone said. “These mapping products allow landholders to consider their property from a forestry value perspective.”

Mr Milham said the DPI was “disappointed to read that the findings of a recent research project were interpreted as a push to clear private native forests in our state”. “A key role of NSW DPI is to support regional economic growth and help build a bright future for our valuable primary industries sector,” he said. “Very little was known about the private native forestry sector, so DPI took the initiative to undertake the research. “A primary aim was to provide landholders with practical resources that would inform them about their forest and their forest management options. “This is important information for individual landholders considering managing their forests for timber – not a push for clearing.” Mr Milham said he wanted to emphasise that commercial forestry “does not equate to permanent forest clearing”.

“Forestry is as much about growing trees as it is about sustainably harvesting them and maintaining the forests in perpetuity,” he said. “DPI’s project included an attitudinal survey of more than 500 private native forest landholders. “The survey found that most landholders have a holistic view recognising that their forests have environmental, social and economic values.” Mr Milham said protection of native forest environment values is regulated by the Environment Protection Authority and addressed through mandatory compliance with the Private Native Forestry Codes. “For example, the Codes include specific provisions to protect old growth and rainforest areas and threatened ecological communities and species, including native flora and fauna,” he said.

BEAUREPAIRES MURWILLUMBAH is back in business this year having spent more than nine months out of action due to the 2017 Tweed flood. The business, which is owned under a Melbourne chain, was forced through a lengthy insurance claim, but managed to keep its local staff employed as the shop was repaired and reopened in late December 2017. Site manager Sean Butler said the company had to replace almost 100 per cent of the shop with only a few tyres left in stock. The business was also allegedly broken into following the floods and several tyres stolen. But the good news from the terrible flood, was that the company kept the staff employed. “The company kept the local staff employed and moved them around to different sites while the insurance and fit-out took place,” Mr Butler said. Local Calvin Lees said he became a fly-in fly-out employee for Beaurepairs at eight different sites including Lismore. “It was a bit of moving round, but it was a good experience learning how other sites operate and kept me employed,” he said. The team of three is now complete with Khyl Brekelmans joining last year.

Grant boost for Tweed Valley Whey

BURRINGBAR BUSINESS Tweed Valley Whey is getting closer to its grand opening as the owners welcomed a boost this week in the form of a Federal Government grant of $50,000. The business will offer a range of incredible on-farm-made cheeses, with a view to evolve the business into a farming collective and paddock to plate food outlet. Tweed Valley Whey owners Sue and Rob Harnett and Sue and Peter Clarke welcomed the government’s grant that will match dollar for dollar investment in the business, to ensure it can provide support to the local community through employment and support. “We’re absolutely thrilled,” Mrs Harnett told The Weekly. “It had been a little while since we submitted the application for the grant, so we’d thought we’d missed out.” Mrs Harnett said she was speaking to Member for Lismore Thomas George and he mentioned the rail trail announcement. “He firstly mentioned the rail trail, which I said was great, then he dropped the news that the application had been successful which was such a surprise and we’re so grateful,” she said. “It’s a dollar for dollar package now it means we can finish all four stages in a timely fashion. “Soon we can start to promote local product, employ local people and finish the project.” The 2017 Tweed floods was a huge setback for Tweed Valley Whey, but the family business is now getting back on track.

Owners Sue Clarke, Rob Harnett and Sue Harnett (absent Peter Clarke) are excited for the future

“We’ve been throwing ourselves into the project,” Mrs Harnett said. “The cheese factory has now been approved and we’re now waiting on the retail approval which is stage two.” Stage three is an information section of the large warehouse outlet which will include some of the rich history of Burringbar including Norco history as well as the family’s history. “Rob’s family started the first macadamia plantation in the world, so we’re hoping to feature that as well as

Norco, who are a big influence on our cheese making and an amazing local operator,” she said. The family is already receiving a range of enquiries from eager farmers, artists and locals and niche items wanting to get involved with Tweed Valley Whey. “I think it’s great for people to have somewhere to display their items and we’re really keen to develop those strong local relationships,” she said.

Mt Warning bushwalkers urged to check conditions TWEED LOCALS have expressed disappointment with a bushwalker who chose to climb Wollumbin Mt Warning during drenched conditions and required rescuing on Saturday, February 3, at around 2pm. Tweed District Rescue Squad (TDRS) crews members assisted NSW Ambulance and Tweed Police to rescue the 18-year-old female bushwalker, who had a nasty fall near the top of the mountain. Heavy rain meant around six rescue members were needed to climb up and load the woman into a specially designed rickshaw frame to carry her down. “Halfway down crews were relieved to have back up from Brunswick VRA and Crews from NSW SES Richmond Tweed Region,” a spokesperson for the TDRS said. Several locals expressed disappointment with the hiker via social media calling for people to be more mindful of their surroundings. “Very irresponsible climbing in this weather,” one comment read. “When will silly idiots stop climbing it in this weather, should start charging for the rescue,” was another. TDRS said they would like to remind hikers to be mindful of the ever-changing conditions of the Wollumbin Mt Warning track. “Substantial damage was sustained during the Ex Cyclone Debbie event which makes this trek more difficult than it has been in the past,” a TDRS spokesperson said. “Ensure you are prepared with appropriate clothing, footwear, food and sufficient water. “Also, be aware of the weather conditions, read the signs, and most importantly never leave the designated track.” The rescue was the second for 2018 and followed the first for the year on Monday, January 22. The first involved extraction of a stricken hiker by the Westpac Rescue Helicopter, who transferred the woman with an ankle injury off the Rescuers carry the woman off the mountain.

Tweed popular with families Feedback on airport hotel plan

SUBURBS ACROSS the Tweed Valley and Tweed Coast have emerged as the most popular areas in the RichmondTweed region for families with children, according to a recent report compiled by Aussie Home Loans and CoreLogic. The Aussie/CoreLogic Most Popular Suburbs for Families report, combined data from the most recent Census along with housing market statistics that found Tweed suburbs made up eight of the top 20 suburbs in the Richmond-Tweed area. Terranora and Casuarina were listed as the top two most popular suburbs for families with children, totalling 55 per cent of all households. The report identified house prices as the most likely impact on a suburb’s popularity with families, however, Casuarina’s median price was the highest in the region at $1.14 million, whilst Terranora’s was almost half that at $663K. “There are likely to be many reasons, including access to transport options and availability of essential amenities such as shopping, schooling and health care, however one of the most significant drivers is likely to be the cost of housing,� the report reads. SUBURB

Median house price

Aussie Chief Executive James Symond said both house prices and large block sizes are key attractions for families. “The quarter acre block is still in Australians’ psyche and families want to enjoy the space that many regional areas still provide, while younger single people and couples are opting for higher density living closer to major regional centres,� he said. Pottsville was the third most popular suburb, where 46 per cent of households were families with children, who paid a median price of $731K for their home. Following closely in second place with 44 per cent of households was Bogangar and Bilambil Heights, at median prices of $681K and $554K respectively. The most affordable area popular with families was Murwillumbah which has a median house price of $469K and 39 per cent of households were families with children. Despite a high median house price of $859K, Kingscliff remained popular with families, making up more than one third (37 per cent) of all households. Banora Point was the last Tweed suburb on the top 20 list, coming in at number 17 with a median house price of $598K and 36 per cent of homes listed as families with children.

TWEED SHIRE residents are invited to have their say on plans to develop a $50 million Rydges branded hotel at the Gold Coast Airport (GCA). A Preliminary Draft Major Development Plan (PDMP) was released this week and maps out the proposed construction of the hotel, comprising of up to 200 rooms, meeting/conference facilities, a rooftop bar, resort-style swimming pool and a restaurant. The hotel is planned to be constructed within the Gold Coast Airport precinct, near Airport Terminal 1 and the Southern Terminal Expansion as part of Project LIFT, and if approved construction is planned to commence in September this year. According to the PDMP the building is expected to be between five and eight storeys although most likely seven. GCA Chief Operating Officer Marion Charlton said she was excited about the major project, which she said would enhance the appeal of the airport as a destination. “We wanted to develop an iconic hotel that improved convenience and amenity for passengers and visitors to the local region,� she said. Queensland Airports Limited Executive General Manager Property and Infrastructure Carl Bruhn said the organisation had several projects underway on the southern Gold Coast and in northern NSW. “Our long-term property strategy aims to develop land on airport and our external sites, to cater for growth over the next 20 years,� he said. “Master planning on both the former Border Park Raceway site and Wollemi Place is progressing and we are exploring the most suitable land uses.� Prominent developer and experienced hotel operator John ‘Foxy’ Robinson, who is leading the hotel development, said

Artist’s impression of Gold Coast Airport Hotel

he believes it will be amongst the most successful airport hotels in Australia. “The hotel project at Gold Coast Airport is especially exciting because of its unique location,� he said. “Although this is my first commercial investment on the Gold Coast, I have built several airport hotels and accommodation venues, and I’m confident it will be the most successful airport related project I’ve developed to date.� Stakeholders and community members are invited to make submissions about the PDMDP via the online submission form on the GCA website or in writing to the Chief Operating Officer, PO Box 112, Coolangatta QLD 4225. Public consultation closes 5pm Friday, May 4. After the 60 business-day public consultation period, submissions received from stakeholders and the community will be incorporated into a revised Draft MDP and submitted to the Federal Government for consideration.

Solar rebates are set to decrease

Australian households and businesses continue to embrace solar energy at a rapid pace in a bid to avoid rising electricity costs. The STC delivers real upfront savings to Aussies moving towards renewable energy and is not to be confused with the feed it tariff that is an ongoing discount determined by your electricity retailer (that’s a story for another day). So just what is an STC and why do you need them right now? Understanding the federal STC rebate The federal government currently offers a financial incentive designed to encourage Australian homes, businesses and community groups to take up solar in a bid to meet our renewable energy target by 2030. This incentive comes in the form of an STC (Small scale Technology Certificate) which is applied directly to the solar system at the time of installation. As the end user, you do not need to pay up front or claim any money back, you are not out of pocket, the incentive is built in to your upfront cost of your solar system.

Under the governments Renewable Energy Target scheme (RET), the current STC calculation will reduce again at the end of the year and will do so each year until it is phased out in 2030, so if you’ve been considering solar, now is the time to act. Today, the STC incentive for a 6.6kW system is just shy of $4,200.00, fast forward to January and the annualisation of the STC scheme has come into effect and this will have dropped significantly to around $3,890.00, dependant on the STC value, that’s a difference of $400 in a matter of months.

To secure the current STC price, it’s worth that noting your solar system must be installed and operational before the 31st of December, taking into account that solar just doesn’t happen overnight. By the time you’ve signed your contract, its then over to the supply authority to apply for a grid connect, and this can take anywhere from 2 to 8 weeks, and then there’s installation and finally operation. From the time you sign, to the time your STC’s take effect, you will need to allow a period of eight weeks, so don’t delay, ACT NOW and save yourself some serious money before the December 31st deadline.

A MURWILLUMBAH family who have faced a horrible series of disasters are now facing an even bigger challenge in finding a new rental home in the Tweed Valley. David Guinea and his four daughters faced their first knock when their Murwillumbah home was devastated by the 2017 Tweed flood and less than 10 months later their Palmvale home burned to the ground. The family are now facing a difficult challenge in a competitive rental market where open homes experience dozens of family and individual applications. They are now hoping a lifeline could be thrown to them in the form of a local rental. “We’ve been going through the local real estates and it’s been such a challenge,” Mr Guinea said. “I was told at one open home not to bother applying as the agent had already received multiple applications and competition is fierce.” Mr Guinea was hoping a private rental might be available in Murwillumbah in order to keep the family local. “It’s important for my work and the kids schooling that we stay in Murwillumbah, but since the floods rentals have become such a tough thing to find,” he said. “We’ve seen other families still looking for rentals since the flood and many people are in share houses, it’s a real struggle for some locals now.”

David and his four daughters, Samantha, 23, Kaitlyn, 9, Natasha, 7, and Isabella, 3, lost almost all their possessions in the flood. “Thankfully a few sentimental items were able to be salvaged such as photo albums but everything else including clothing, furniture, two vehicles and the kids toys were lost,” he said. “It wasn’t easy, but we stayed strong and found a new home and started to slowly rebuild.” But the worst was yet to come for the family with a shocking house fire on Saturday, January 20, at their new home in Palmvale. “Unfortunately, less than 12 months later I received a call telling me that the house was on fire,” he said. David rushed home to find that the fire had gutted his home and everything inside was lost. “Nothing was salvageable, not even the photo albums that were salvaged from the floods 10 months earlier,” he said. The family is now facing the hardship of starting over for the second time and they are asking for any help to rebuild. If you have a rental or know someone that does please get in contact with David on 0428 999 161 or phone The Weekly (02) 6672 4443 to find out more.

Special Feature...

How to Zero Your Power Bill - and Stay Connected to the Grid On the 1st July power prices increased by 20% in NSW. Solar Feed in Tariffs doubled. In this special report you will find out how you can get the most benefit from solar power on your house and minimise the impact of higher power prices.

If You Use Less Than 10 kWh per Day...

Install 5-8 kW of Solar Panels to Eliminate your power bill

With Feed in tariffs at 12-16c you can now sell power back to the grid as part of a strategy to minimise and eliminate power charges completely. Production from 2.5 kW of solar - about 10 panels - will offset the dreaded electricity supply charge when all the generated power is exported. You now get half as much for the power you sell as it costs you to buy from the grid. If you export enough, the rest of your power charges can be eliminated. This strategy is ideal for retirees or small households.

If You Use 10-25 kWh per Day...

Install 5-8 kW of Solar Panels and Batteries if Export is Limited If Essential Energy will let you export 5 kWh or more to the grid, then stacking your roof with as many solar panels as possible will work well for you. If export is limited, consider storing extra power in a battery bank for night time use. A combination of solar for export, self use maximised during the day and battery storage is a great strategy to bring your bill closer to zero for medium households with 3-4 people.

If You Use More Than 25 kWh per Day... Install 8+ kW of Solar Panels and Solar Batteries Export 5 kWh to the grid, use as much as you can during the day and store power for night time use in a larger bank of solar batteries. Power prices are expected to rise by another 50% in the next 2 years, so everything you put in now will work even better in the years to come. Get a free energy plan from 888 Solar Tek because every home is different and you need help to get your solar system sized right and working perfectly.

Solar Batteries Ensure You Never Have Blackouts in the Storm Season

Solar Rebate to Drop in 2018 But Don’t Panic!

Every year, for the next 14 years, the value of subsidies for new installations of solar panels will fall. The payment is made based on the installation date, so many solar companies are getting people into a panic to sign up now or miss out. The incremental decrease is about $300 less for a 6 kW solar system installed after 31st Dec 2017.

Don’t Panic! 888 Solar Tek will pay the full 2017 rebate for any system ORDERED before 31st of Dec 2017 regardless of install date.

You also get 2 Extra Panels Free with any Solar System

Until the 22nd Decemebr 2017, 888 Solar Tek will add two extra panels to each New solar system ordered for FREE! You get 2 extra 270 Watt, tier 1 Seraphim solar panels - over half a kW more power with our highest quality Seraphim panels - the first panel in the world to ever pass the Photon Labs independent torture test. You will also receive FREE solar WiFi monitoring, setup on your phone, tablet or computer & expert tuition on how to get the most from your solar system.

There’s also plenty of off-street free parking with the market open early and until 11am every Saturday. Among the great stallholders is a range of fresh seasonal farm produce and an extensive range of breads including Italian, sourdough and gluten free. But that’s not all with a range of pastries, tarts and sweets as well as smallgoods, olives, cheeses, muesli, delicious dukkah, jams and sauces. For those wanting a morning kickstart you can also find fresh juices, smoothies and of course an amazing coffee, iced coffee or hot choc. Visitors can also browse the kombucha and bottled kefir drinks as well as a tasty variety of kebabs, gozleme plus Vietnamese bacon and egg rolls.

“On average we have 25 stallholders, and the odd casual stall attendance, which includes a range of items to suit all tastes.” Ainslie said the vision for the market was to provide an avenue in Kingscliff and the Tweed Shire where there’s support for authentic local farmers to sell their seasonal produce. “In addition, we have many other artisan stalls offering homemade products, providing a great variety to the public,” she said. “The Kingscliff Farmers Market provides free live entertainment each week, mostly solo or duo artists whose music creates a great vibe and atmosphere for the patrons. “We have covered seating areas for customers to relax while enjoying some ready to eat food, coffee, juices and smoothies.”

THE KINGSCLIFF Farmer’s Market is celebrating almost a year in operation with local stallholders inviting residents to visit the markets every Saturday morning and sample the incredible range of local produce. The Weekly recently visited the markets to meet with the friendly stallholders, who sell a range of delicious breads, fruit and vegetables, farm produce and a range of smallgoods. The market is organised by Ainslie Lawrie and Gabby McGuren, who wanted to share the exceptional local produce with residents in a market setting. “We first opened in March 11, 2017, which makes the market almost one year old,” Ainslie said.

Hot deal on HiLux at Surf Toyota Tweed Heads

THE TOYOTA HiLux continues to dominate the new car market, according to latest VFACTS figures, with Australia’s favourite off-road vehicle emerging as the bestseller in January. Surf Toyota is currently offering one of the best deals on the latest HiLux at Minjungbal Drive, Tweed Heads, with plenty of models to choose from. Surf Toyota sales manager Leon Geldenhuys said the dealer was currently offering a $9,000 discount at a special price of $52,990 drive away including a free auto upgrade.

“That’s one of the best prices on the new HiLux we’ve ever had,” he said. Mr Geldenhuys said customers were loving the HiLux as they hold their value, are built tough and keep servicing costs low. “You can also get capped price servicing with full log book for three years or 60,000km for only $240,” he said. As one of Australia’s most loved cars the HiLux sold 3,860 in January 2018, which was up from January 2017 by 1158 (or 2702 in January 2017), according to the VFACTS report.

Sales Manager Leon Geldenhuys

The reigning champion, the Toyota HiLux, looks set to make record back-to-back sales victories as it continues to notch up month after month of records. “It’s easy to see why the HiLux is so popular, it has a global reputation as being reliable, long lasting, easy to service and a whole lot of fun to drive,” Mr Geldenhuys said. The model range consists of 4x2 and 4x4 models and customers can still get singlecab, extra-cab and double-cab variants as well. There’s a total of 31 different versions of the HiLux available in Australia with the range consisting of the entry-grade WorkMate, mid-range SR and SR+, and high-spec SR5 and SR5+ models spread across those different drivetrain and bodystyle types. Meanwhile, VFACTS has seen a 4.3 per cent increase in new car sales and registrations for

AUTOMOTIVE SUSPENSION & EXHAUST

January 2018, compared to the same month last year. “VFACTS data released this week recorded 88,551 new car sales for the first month of the calendar year,” the report reads. “By comparison, the tally for January 2017 – a year in which the all-time annual sales record was broken – was 84,910. “January often gives a good guide to which brands started 2018 without a backlog of dealer demonstrators, opposed to those that had to clear the previous-year’s registered stock.” As has become familiar, SUVs were the dominant vehicle type, snagging 42.8 per cent market share. Passenger vehicles (hatchbacks, sedans, wagons, peoplemovers, coupes and convertibles) grabbed 36 per cent, and vans/utes 18.9 per cent.

cent saying they would much prefer a love letter than a text message. Both men and women agree that even in the age of online dating and new technology, 95 per cent still consider the love letter romantic with just four per cent saying it is out-dated. “Writing love letters and little notes to your partner is a great way to show you care and it is heart warming to see that so many Aussie men are putting pen to paper to express their feelings this way – Aussie women take note, writing him a love letter might be the way to your man’s heart,” said Melissa.

Tips for writing a love letter

1. Quiet corner: choose a quiet space where you can be alone to let your feelings flow. 2. Keep going: Try not to get hung up about making a mistake or choosing the right words or phrases the first time. You can always go over and refine your work later. 3. Be honest: don’t be afraid to open up your inner most feelings. Share your feelings, embrace them and own them. 4. Story time: if you run out of words, then take inspiration from the past, then comment about the present and express your hopes and wishes for the future. 5. Be you: don’t feel the need to purchase posh parchment or fancy notepaper. A love letter can be written on anything. Grab what you have to hand – better that than nothing at all.

Handwriting a love letter, walking on the beach and surprise weekends away are just some of the romantic things Aussie men like to do, according to a survey of more than 1000 Australians conducted by online dating site, RSVP and Pilot Pen Australia. “Every year around Valentine’s Day we publish our annual ‘love monitor’ to report on the romantic habits of Australians,” said John Johnston, marketing manager, Pilot Pen Australia. “This year, we were surprised to find that 80 per cent of Australian men consider themselves to be romantic but the majority of women (65 per cent) disagree.” The survey revealed that 82 per cent of Australian men have handwritten a love letter, 17 per cent have sent flowers, 27 per cent have booked a surprise weekend away and 74 per cent will write a Valentines card; 54 per cent write loving notes to their partner and leave them around the house. In spite of this, Australian women ranked Italians as the most romantic (41 per cent), closely followed by French men at 36 per cent. Australian men ranked third in the romance stakes at 14 per cent with British men lagging way behind at just eight per cent. “The survey suggests that Aussie men are not backward at coming forward with romantic gestures – perhaps it’s time we give them a chance to reveal their true romantic natures,” said leading couple counsellor and relationship expert, Melissa Ferrari. In fact, Aussie men love a love letter, one of the most romantic gestures of all, with 82 per cent having written one and 94 per cent saying that if they received one, they would consider it to be highly romantic and 86 per

Winston Churchill tells wife Clementine Churchill of his undying love (1935) “You wrote some words very dear to me, about my having enriched your life. I cannot tell you what pleasure this gave me, because I always feel so overwhelmingly in your debt, if there can be accounts in love... What it has been to me to live all these years in your heart and companionship no phrases can convey.” Richard Burton tells Elizabeth Taylor of her beauty (1964) “My blind eyes are desperately waiting for the sight of you. You don’t realise of course, E.B., how fascinatingly beautiful you have always been, and how strangely you have acquired an added and special and dangerous loveliness.” King Henry VIII expresses his love for Anne Boleyn (1527) “I beg to know expressly your intention touching the love between us…Necessity compels me to obtain this answer, having been more than a year wounded by the dart of love, and not yet sure whether I shall fail or find a place in your affection.” Johnny Cash wishes wife June Carter Cash a happy 65th birthday (1994) “We get old and get use to each other. We think alike. We read each others minds. We know what the other wants without asking. Sometimes we irritate each other a little bit. Maybe sometimes take each other for granted. But once in awhile, like today, I meditate on it and realise how lucky I am to share my life with the greatest woman I ever met. You still fascinate and inspire me. You influence me for the better. You’re the object of my desire, the #1 Earthly reason for my existence. I love you very much.” Beauty Treatments

John Keats tells Fanny Brawne he cannot live without her (1819) “My love has made me selfish. I cannot exist without you - I am forgetful of every thing but seeing you again…You have ravish’d me away by a Power I cannot resist: and yet I could resist till I saw you…My Love is selfish – I cannot breathe without you.”

Action needed as weeds invade Tweed Valley

Cat’s Claw Creeper flowers

“The vine weeds pose a threat as they will invade good bushland and swamp mature trees, covering their leaves and starving them of light and eventually killing them. “Cats Claw and Madeira are considered Weeds of National Significance because of their ability to transform forests into a monoculture.” Dr Dawson said other more familiar woody weeds, such as Lantana, Tobacco Bush, Castor Oil Plant, Camphor Laurel, and Night Flowering Jasmine are also a threat to bushland that will tend to exclude natives and outcompete them rather than kill them as the vines will. “The Giant Devil's Fig (GDF) is a recent arrival and has only been in the area for little more than a decade,” he said. “It’s certainly one of the worst weeds around, it likes wet feet and so will grow in damp areas not inhabited by other weeds, and it will quickly dominate stream beds and banks. “Combined with the ability to spread by birds, it is rapidly moving through all watercourses in the Tweed catchment. “The GDF is covered in large thorns like a Rose, the thorns are present on every part of the plant from the base of the stem to the leaf veins. “Once GDF becomes established in an area it makes it very unpleasant to walk through and can result in some creek or stream areas becoming unusable.

“The GDF will also invade pastures and paddocks. “The GDF seems to be reaching a critical point and is far more obvious today than it was even a few years ago. “It's fruit is readily spread by birds and bats, I have even seen it being cultivated by people for use as an exotic ingredient in Asian cuisine.” Dr Dawson said one of the best methods for weed control was avoiding their introduction. “The first thing we need to do is appreciate what we have and stop trying to improve it by introducing new plants,” he said. “A myriad of plants are brought into the area for aesthetic or culinary purposes, too often dumping garden waste, or wellintentioned releases can lead to new weed outbreaks. “Learn what you're looking at. Is it a native or not? “Once people start recognising basic weeds such as GDF, Lantana, Camphor Laurel and Cats Claw then the plight of the native ecosystem may be better appreciated. “Without the combined action of landowners and government successful weed eradication is impossible. “There are many instances where this is happening, and the community and government are working together. Tweed Landcare is a great organisation to be involved with. Dr Dawson said controlling invasive weeds comes with many

challenges and landowners should seek help from professionals to deal with weeds on their property. “There are some biological control agents which have been recently released for some of the vine weeds, but it’s still too early to tell how effective they are,” he said. “Slashing weeds is not really an option as the GDF and most woody weeds will grow back from a stump. “Slashing can also often make the problem worse. “The use of salt and other chemicals to kill weeds is not really a substitute for herbicides. “Salt will kill weeds but will also kill everything else and poison the soil if used regularly. “Vinegar type solutions will merely burn off the tops of plants, grasses will readily return quickly after a vinegar application.

“Frogs and critters don’t particularly survive well after being exposed to salt or vinegar. The same is true for flame throwers and steamers. “In the same way you would hire a mechanic to fix your car, the best solution is to employ trained professionals who know what they're looking at and can treat weeds appropriately minimising off target damage. “Improperly treated weeds can create more of a problem, such as a coppicing Camphor Laurel. “It is best to get some assistance from Landcare, Council or experienced professionals when first starting out on a weed control."

INVASIVE WEEDS continue to plague parts of the Tweed Shire with recent warnings that the Giant Devil's Fig is threatening to swamp some properties during wet conditions this month. Caldera Environment Centre committee member Dr Sam Dawson has long campaigned for landholders to be mindful of invasive weeds and he’s again reinforcing the need to engage people with the right knowledge to identify and assist with weed control - before it’s too late. “There are so many weeds in the area it's hard to know where to begin,” he said. “There are different categories of weeds; the weed in a suburban garden may be a native plant, and most garden plants are weeds in natural areas, and then there's agricultural weeds. “The biggest threat to natural areas are vine weeds, such as Madeira Vine and Cat's Claw Creeper, both of which are commonly seen in urban and rural gardens.

Synergy Group offers employment plans for NDIS Calls to remove tank

AUSTRALIAN DISABILITY Enterprise Synergy Group, which first started in Murwillumbah, has recently joined the rest of NSW to become a registered provider of the National Disability Insurance Scheme (NDIS). Synergy Group has provided ongoing employment opportunities, support and training to thousands of adults with a disability for more than 40 years. Today, Synergy operates a packaging and processing factory at Tweed Heads South where they have around 50 supported employees from within the local community. Synergy Acting General Manager Sarah Green said Synergy is a certified (HACCP and ACO) operator that ensures their employees have the highest quality of training with a wonderful opportunity to further their careers either within Synergy Group, or out in open employment. Synergy Group now has a number of availabilities to any Tweed adult with an NDIS plan seeking meaningful employment and training opportunities. “Through this roll out, individuals, families and carers now have access to regular care, support, therapy and equipment they may need from a secure and consistent pool of funds for these services and support,” she said. “The NDIS focuses on early intervention and delivering supports which produce the best long-term outcomes, maximising opportunities for independence, participation and productivity. “Each NDIS plan is individualised and person-centred.”

A DUNBIBLE resident says he’s concerned that a storage tank near the Mistral Road bridge is clogging up Dunbible Creek after it was washed into the creek during the 2017 Tweed flood. The resident, who preferred to remain anonymous, says the tank (pictured) is not only an “eyesore” but is also impacting the creek and he’s called for it to be removed. “I think the landowner or Tweed Shire Council should get in there and remove the tank,” he said. “It’s a horrible thing to have to look at every day and something that could be easily fixed.” The Weekly questioned whether Tweed Shire Council was responsible for removing the tank from the creek with several questions. However, a spokesperson for Council said it was the private landowner’s responsibility. “Council does not go onto private property to clean up debris,” the spokesperson said. “This is not a Council issue, it is the responsibility of the landowner.” The Weekly also questioned Council whether the tank was a fuel tank or a water tank, however a response was unavailable prior to print.

Synergy Group team members

Ms Green said support is based on the choices of the person with a disability and their family. “Synergy Group falls under the ‘finding and keeping a job’ pool of funding,” she said. “It is required that an individual that wishes to pursue employment and training opportunities with Synergy Group have this identified in their NDIS Plans to ensure eligibility. “A role within Synergy Group can provide an individual with a wonderful group of friends, mentors and a skillset they may never have thought possible.” Ms Green said working skills can overflow into everyday life skills and

ensure a more proactive and enjoyable lifestyle for all involved. “We would love to keep attracting individuals with an NDIS plan to our organisation to develop their skills and feel a part of a team,” she said. “There is nothing more rewarding than watching our employees achieve goals they may never have dreamed, we have seen individuals go from barely speaking in group situations to now being team leaders within our organisation and that is the most rewarding feeling in the world.” To find out more phone Synergy Group on (07) 5523 4579.

Summit Organics has joined our market. Rod and Tania Bruin have been busy trialling and installing greenhouses on their Tyalgum Farm to enable them to keep produce healthy through rain, hail and shine. With their rich soil built up over many years using organic compost and a clever watering system plus always lots of hard work means that Rod and Tania have seen their produce diversity and production outputs increase immensely. So we are thrilled to welcome them to our Wednesday market. Murwillumbah is their nearest weekly farmers’ market so they are very happy too. This week Summit Organics will bring a selection of their range for you to enjoy including lush rocket and lettuce not damaged by the recent showers. As the weeks progress the varieties will increase. All our farmers are constantly planning ahead and planting so many seedlings every week - sometimes many thousands - to keep us supplied so it was a bit disconcerting but not surprising to read in “Food Shock” that: “less than two per cent of working Australians are farmers. We spend only 14 cents in every dollar of our disposable income on food. The farmer only gets two cents of this. The other 12 cents goes to processing, packaging, marketing and distributing food. We now pay more for packaging and advertising than we pay the farmer to grow food. Why is this?”

AUSTRALIA’S FAVOURITE apple is back! New season Royal Gala apples arrived this week. Simply follow the aroma of these very popular apples as it attracts you to their stall. Nothing compares to the crisp texture and sweet flavour of new season apples straight from the family orchard near Stanthorpe – the place so well known for producing the best Royal Gala apples in Australia. Characterised by a blush of pink on its skin, this dense, sweet, juicy apple is the perfect lunch box fruit or is simply delicious anytime. Storage tip: To keep your apples crunchy the advice from Aussie Apples is to keep them in the fridge. Fruit bowls full of shiny red apples look great in impressionist art, but they’re a sure way to make your apples floury. One Organic seedlings is back with a range of organic and heirloom seedlings that are grown from open pollinated non-hybrid non-treated seeds. Summer plantings work well if you have prepared your soil so great compost and well rotted animal manures plus some rock minerals will provide a great foundation for hungry summer produce and after this rain wow, watch them grow. The market has so many beautiful gentle lisianthus (flowers) too at Jumping Red Ant’s stall, as well as their sassy heliconias so you too can fill your house with colour.

THE MURWILLUMBAH Vulcans Junior AFL Club is all set to launch into it’s ninth season, this year, boasting a bigger and brighter outlook for players and fans. The phenomenal success of the club looks set to march right on with teams from Under 8 through to Under 17 age groups in both boys and girls. “The steady growth of the club and the success of some of the boys and girls, moving onto selection in Representative, State and AFL Club Development Programs has been a thrill to see and be a part of,” said Coaching Coordinator, Steve Foreman. Over the last three years the Under 13 and Under 14 boys have made the Grand Final every year, winning in 2016. The outstanding success of the Under 15 Girls has been breathtaking, having won the Grand Final in both years of the competition

The success looks like continuing with great coaching staff, fitness sponsorship from the Murwillumbah Gym and lots of fun for players and parents in all ages. At the moment the Club has three boys and two girls selected in the Gold Coast Suns Talent Academy and there are lots of opportunities this season for players from Under 12 and up for selection in Representative Football. The Vulcans have a great reputation in the Northern Rivers AFL League as a well organised and inclusive club focusing on the development and enjoyment of players. We have won volunteer and coach of the year awards consistently and aim for a high quality, good fun, grass roots AFL experience for all the community. Come on down to our sign-on days at the Murwillumbah RSL on the 11th and 17th of February and meet our coaches and staff. We’d love to have you on board... Vulcans on Fire!”

THE FLORIDA PROJECT

Finalist of The Melbourne International Comedy Festival’s RAW comedy competition. Ellen was also winner of the Foxtel’s Comedy Channel’s Be A Comedian. Ellen’s hilarious and unique take on the everyday will have you in stitches. MC for the night is the big girl of controversy and local comedy star Mandy Nolan, 25 year stand up veteran, columnist, comedy writer and local personality, Mandy’s comedy performances leave her crowds crying with laughter.

There are so many excellent films coming out now that it is difficult to decide which one to write about – February and March are always my favorite months as the movies nominated for the Academy Awards arrive in town. As most of you will have already heard about Three Billboards Outside Ebbing, Missouri, here is some information about another super interesting film which, despite gaining ‘only’ one Oscar nomination for Willem Dafoe as Best Supporting Actor, has got critics worldwide raving. The Florida Project is about people who, despite living near the dream-like place par excellence, Disney World – which originally was going to be called Florida Project, hence the title of the film – have very un-dream-like lives. They are the low-income earners camping in budget motels that dot the area, surviving on welfare or casual work, often of illegal nature. One of them is Halley, a young woman with a six-year old daughter Moonee – played by one of those formidable kid actors surely destined for a brilliant career. Halley is an angry and very dysfunctional mother, and her voyage along the path to self-sabotage forms the explosive core of the movie. Bobby, played by Willem Dafoe, is the motel manager who, despite having to deal with the disruptive behavior of tenants like Halley and Moonee, has a soft spot for people living a difficult life - he is a boss, a handyman, a therapist, a law enforcer, and a tough-love daddyprotector. The story takes place during a summer when Moonee drifts about with other local kids and gets into trouble, while at the same time exuding the sense of adventure and wonder typical of childhood. The film was shot in one of those actual budget motels, and tenants remained living in the motel while filming was underway, so it will appeal to audiences who like to reflect upon reality, not dreams.

Removing the old cinema screen

THE REGENT Cinema recently announced the addition of a new screen to ensure Tweed Shire residents can enjoy a top-quality viewing experience The old screen had been in place for several decades and during that time had become marked with spots and imperfections that resisted all attempts to repair. Therefore, the decision was made to have it replaced. Regent Cinema co-owner Ken Rippin said screens are an expensive item and the cinema had persevered with the old one for a number of years.

THIS WEEK’S Murwillumbah Art Trail 2018 featured artist is the insightful and thoughtful local Michele Bevis, who is excited to take part in MAT18. Michele is an avid sculptor, printmaker and glass-bead maker who recently turned her focus to the Anthropocene, a proposed geological time period where humans have altered the climate and environment. The Weekly recently caught up with Michele to find out more about her connection to the Tweed and growing passion in telling the story of humanity’s addiction to waste. “Life is a wonderful experiment and my life is exactly that: a journey of change,” she said. “About eight years ago I moved to “The Crater” (aka Wollumbin mountain) looking for myself. “It is here that the layers, of whom I thought I was, started to shed. “I began uncovering a more authentic way of being.” Michele said that after shifting states, she changed career and at 18 years old she began to study art. “I enrolled at Murwillumbah TAFE and continued studying a Bachelor of Visual Arts at Southern Cross University, Lismore,” she said. “Art is making, with a story. Since arriving in this lush, sub-tropical rainforest, the energy of the country has seeped into me and I find myself increasingly responsive to my environment and wanting to tell my story. “My exploration into self and art opened my eyes to the beauty and fragility of the Earth. “I have since tuned my gaze to the Anthropocene, the newest geological era. “The Anthropocene defines the significant environmental impact of human activity, which far outweighs

“But the spots had become increasingly annoying over time, and the last straw was the screening of the film “Mountain” where the spots really showed out on the white snow background,” he said. “We had the new screen manufactured in the USA, as none are made in Australia. “It comes from the world’s number one screen maker and incorporates the latest high-gain technology to produce a brilliant image.” The Regent will be putting the new screen to the test over the coming weeks as several of this year’s Academy Award nominated films will be coming to Murwillumbah.

EVERY SEAT EVERY CINEMA Earth’s natural changes.” As a sculptor, printmaker and glassbead maker, Michele’s involvement in the Murwillumbah Art Trail over the years has been to tell the story of humanity’s waste addiction, with a focus on plastic in planetary plunder. “If artists’ works are an interpretation of the world as they see it, then Mahatma Gandhi’s quote “Be the change that you wish to see in the world”, is the direction I want to be pointing,” she said. “That’s the story I want to tell. And the viewer well, they interpret the work through their own experience and this makes art interactive: a discussion between the artist and the viewer. “Last year, my plastic artwork was installed in two Murwillumbah cafés to reflect plastic invading the living spaces of fish in our oceans by invading our living spaces. “I randomly plastic-bombed a tree. This year, my artworks have not yet been designated to a specific site. “The MAT18 curator, Dev Lengjel, will be curating all the artists’ works. As mine is sculptural, it could be located in Budd Park as part of the Sculpture Exhibition on Saturday, May 26, or in a pop-up shop in the Murwillumbah CBD. “It feels as if the art trail brings another layer to our beautiful region and I look forward to this event again this year.”

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.

POLICE BEAT Police investigate gunshot at window on 1800 333 000 or use the Crime Stoppers TWEED POLICE are investigating after a shot was fired through the window of a prime mover parked at Enterprise Avenue in Tweed Heads South on Tuesday, February 6. Police said it was about 9pm when a man was asleep in the parked vehicle. “The man woke to a loud noise before finding small glass fragments on his bed. The shattered glass caused minor cuts to his legs,” police said. “Police from Tweed/Byron Local Area Command attended and established a crime scene. “A hole was located in the front windscreen and a projectile casing was found lodged in the rear wall.” Police are urging anyone with information in relation to this incident to call Crime Stoppers

Investigation into suspicious fire

“There were several CCTV cameras in the area that will assist detectives with the investigation into the fire,” Police said.

TWEED POLICE are investigating a fire at Tweed Shire Council’s Community and Cultural Services Unit on Tumbulgum Road, Murwillumbah, at about 4.25am on Sunday, February 4.

Bowls Notes TBDBA Championship Fours semis and finals conducted at Cabarita Beach Bowls Club over the weekend were all that was expected. Top class bowling across the greens in all categories was a delight to behold with several games going down to the wire. Open Fours were no exception as the contestants vied for a berth in the final. Semi one between Andrew Montgomery, Phil Clarke, Terry Mason, Troy Makin (Skip), Ocean Shores and Pottsville’s Graham Crawley, Jason Mann, Peter McGuinness, John Koning (Skip) proved to be a hard day at the office for the Potty lads as Ocean Shores took control from the beginning and held their opposition down to claim the game with a comfy surplus. Semi two between two well matched teams, Cabarita’s Bob Gormly, Greg Matfin, Ken Coyte, David Crow (Skip) and Kingscliff’s Greg Barrack, Trevor Hills, Wayne Bartlett, Peter Duncan (Skip) was a tough encounter in a game that could have gone either way with the Caba crew claiming honours one shot up. The final between Cabarita and Ocean Shores was an interesting skirmish. Ocean

with Judy Tuckey

Shores was up 12-2 after 8 ends before the Cabarita lads got cracking. 6 more ends and the score was 12-12. While only conceding 2 more shots to Ocean Shores over the next 6 ends, Cabarita lads were sitting pretty on 1914 with one end to go. Needing 5 shots to draw and 6 to win, Skip Troy Makin deadened the next two ends. In a nail biting finale, Troy guided his team to accumulate the 6 shots required to triumph and collect the spoils of success. An absolute cracker of a game throughout. Reserve Grade semis were both close scoring matches. The Burringbar vs Bangalow game concluded in a draw resulting in an extra end to decide a winner with the Bangalow boys coming out on top one shot up. Semi Two with Mullumbimby and Ocean Shores jousting for a berth in the finals was a topsy turvey scoring game with Ocean Shores eventually taking the game with a comfy margin. The final in this category with Ocean Shores’ Anthony Martin, Danny Hayer, David Pyne, Peter Quirke (Skip) challenging Bangalow’s Terry Wright, Ian Dall, Jeff Nolan, Richard Rombouts (Skip) saw the Bangalow lads produce a handy lead early

and maintain that position throughout. A resurgence from the Ocean Shores lads late in the game didn’t quite close the gap resulting in Rombouts and co closing the game with a margin of three. Senior Fours final featuring two Cabarita teams was a great game. Greg Goode, Bill Creedon, Barry Sheppard, John Turner (Skip) were challenging John McArdle, John

Madden, Bill Davey, Ron Hutchinson (Skip) for the top spot. Whilst team Hutchinson grabbed the lead early and held on to claim the championship, the scorecard didn’t particularly indicate just how well all contestants performed. See you on the greens. Good bowling everyone.

TWEED COAST PRO

Wraps Up After 5 Days of Pumping Waves

Tapped in to the waves

With Terry Tappa’ Teece

The Tweed Coast really provided some great waves for the touring and local pro surfers, and after five days of great waves, two worthy champions, Isabella Nichols (Sunshine Coast) and Jackson Baker (Newcastle), were crowned. Unfortunatley wind-affected three-to-four foot surf at Cabarita was on the menu for most of the final days competition, but they had feated on the best that the Tweed Coast could offer on the previous day. Much to unhappiness of some locals who weren’t too keen to share their secret spots with the blow ins. But it is what it is and was great for local businesses at Kingscliff and Cabarita. Sunshine Coaster Isabella Nichols battled against Tweed Coast local Kobie Enright in a nail-biter of a final. Enright was undefeated in 2018 until now, taking out the previous two QS1,000 events at Burleigh Heads and Maroubra, but it was Nichols who got to taste victory at the Mothernest Tweed Coast Pro. “Knowing that Kobie was in good form fired me up to put on a good performance,” Nichols said. “She’s a great surfer, but I’ve been working really hard on being prepared for 2018 both mentally and physically. It’s great to have hard work pay off and I’m now really looking forward to the QS6,000s coming up at Manly and Newcastle.” In the final both surfers started slow with small scores and the win was there for anyone to take. Nichols sealed the

victory with a long right hander that she unloaded sharpand-precise top to bottom turns to score an 8.75. “It’s been a great event, we have really good waves and the level of surfing has been really high,” she said. Newcastle’s Jackson Baker took on Gold Coaster Luke Hynd in seesawing men’s final. Both surfers have been lighting up the waves at Kingscliff and Cabarita all week Hynd on his backhand and Baker on his forehand - the stage was set for an epic battle. Hynd held an early lead, but it was baker who bettered his scores with every wave, starting with a 5.00, followed by an 8.00, then an 8.50 and finally secured the win with a 9.15. “I’ve gotten most of my best results overseas so it feels really good to get a win at home,” Baker said. “We had great waves all day and I was in the final with a good mate so you can’t ask for more than that.” “I had Tim MacDonald here as my coach and it seemed to have worked out well, so I will take him to the QS6,000s and hopefully keep the roll going.” Jackson Baker had looked so relaxed and comfortable all week, it’s as if he’s been free-surfing and not in competition mode. He banks the points and prize-money, but will quickly shift focus to the up-and-coming QS6,000 events at Newcastle and Manly. “I’ve changed my approach a little this year and trying to be more relaxed,” Baker added. “I’ve got big plans for 2018 and there’s no better practice for surfing heats, than surfing heats. These QS1,000 events are important for my training, but my main focus is on the QS6,000s and the first one is in my hometown at Newcastle so I’m really looking forward to this year’s Burton Automotive Pro.” Kobie Enright has been on an absolute tear in 2018, winning the first two QS1,000 events of the season and is looking destined for massive competitive campaign in the months to come. This week however, she will have to settle for second place, as he luck ran out and she was unable to find the waves and scores required to overtake Nichols. “Even after two wins in a row, coming second hurts,” Enright said. “I can’t complain though, three finals in a

row is really good. It’s great for my confidence leading into Manly and Newcastle. So many of the top girls in the world will be at those, so it’s always nice to be prepared and getting some solid scores.” This series will be back next year, hopefully bigger and better with more prizemoney. Meanwhile the third event of the Vissla Serries has kicked off, “The Great Lakes Pro” in the Foster Tuncurry area.

Mitch Parko and Noa Deane shake the tree at Pipeline

Well local rippers Mitch Parkinson and Noa Deane really made their mark in Hawaii, both making it to the semi-finals in the Volcom Pipe Pro. It was massive, with closeout sets at second reef Pipeline, Mitch Parkinson scoring a crazy barrel from way deep to have everyones jaws gaping in disbelief. Noa Deane was ripping, so much so he knocked out World Champion John John Florence in the quarter finals, Pipeline is John John’s backyard (literally), and Noa who usually does not compete, on the career path of a free-surfer showed what he can do. Volcom is his sponsor so he had a crack, and a great effort it was. John John fitted in a quick trip to the Gold Coast to test some boards at Snapper Rock during the last swell, and then took off back to Hawaii for the event. Good to see some Coolangatta/Tweed crew going good in Hawaii, and an honourable mention to Brent Dorrington who was going nuts over there as well.

Ty and Uncle Parko take out the eager beaver

The fifth annual Eager Beaver contest was held at 25th Avenue, Palm Beach on the weekend, a pairs team event raising awareness of suicide, and raising funds for the Livin Charity to help get the message out there that “It’s not weak to speak”. Solid conditions saw some great performances, but the event was won by 11 year old Ty Richardson, and his uncle Joel Parkinson. It was a great day, and Parko even admitted that Ty carried him through a few heats. Watch out for this little bloke in the future. Catch You in the Waves

Tweed Coast Enduro rolls into Pottsville

THE BEAUTIFUL seaside community of Pottsville will welcome the Tweed Coast Enduro Triathlon on Saturday, February 10. Pottsville will be buzzing with endurance athletes from across Queensland and New South Wales racing to compete for Australia at the upcoming Long Course World Championships in Denmark in July 2018. Race Director Michael Crawley said the team was incredibly proud to be hosting a world qualifying event and sharing the Tweed with so many new athletes from around the country. “Many athletes and their families will be staying at local accommodation and it has been near impossible to find a bed for the last few months,” he said. “The event has attracted a strong number of clubs and teams, which will bolster an already competitive field that includes 2017 winner Matt Slee and 2016 winner Adam Gordon.” Racing starts in Mooball Creek on an incoming tide from 6.10am for the Sprinters with a 750m swim, with the long course athletes starting from the Buckingham Drive beach for their 1.9km swim. The 90km cycle leg then starts near the Pottsville South Tweed Coast Holiday Park and heads along Tweed Coast Road towards Wooyung and the wooden railway bridge. The cycle is expected to finish by 11am subject to head winds and the heat. The final leg is the half marathon 21.1km run, which follows Overall Drive, the creek bank and Black Rocks Sport Fields which should be completed by 2.30pm subject to conditions on the day. “Each year residents come out to hose the athletes as they go past and cheer on the runners who often suffer from high humidity

in the afternoon,” Mr Crawley said. Mr Crawley wanted to invite all residents to be part of the fun and grab a drink, pop up the beach umbrella and cool the athletes and to help reduce heat related problems. The Tweed Coast Enduro continues the proud tradition of fundraising for the Cabarita Surf Life Saving Club and Pottsville Beach Neighbourhood Centre, as well as a number of other community groups including Tweed Raiders JRL, Pottsville Cricket Club, the Murwillumbah Venturer Scouts, Pottsville Men’s Shed, and the Murwillumbah High School Volleyball Team. This year organisers hope to raise $5000 for these local groups. Mr Crawley wanted to thank the residents and businesses in advance and acknowledges that this event will cause some traffic disruption. Traffic will be closed along Tweed Coast Road during racing; and local vehicle access to and from Overall Drive will be detoured with traffic controllers via Anne Street. Please expect some delays.

Statues stand tall in tribute

THREE WOODEN Lifesaving figures standing tall at Kingscliff were recently erected to personify the incredible work of lifesavers from Cudgen, who have patrolled the beach since 1922. The statues (pictured below), which are made from tallow wood, cadaghi and brush box , were created by Sunshine Coast chainsaw sculptor Matt George and were commissioned by the Cudgen Surf Life Saving Club as well as both the Hughes and Spence families.

Mick O’Brien told a recent club luncheon of his quest to memorialise the contribution made to surf lifesaving by members of Cudgen SLSC and the plan to achieve this with a striking piece of public art. The follow is the dedication on the statues: “These sculptures are a tribute to the memory of local residents who have served Cudgen Headland Surf Life Saving Club and their community since 1922 and who personify the SLSA motto “Vigilance and Service,” a statement from the club read.

Cudgen Headland SLSC Keith Kennedy

Cudgen whitewash at Country Champs CUDGEN HEADLAND SLSC has cemented its position over the NSW Surf Life Saving Envirobank Country Championships title after finishing more than 400 points ahead of the closest rivals. Sawtell SLSC staged a huge effort to unseat last year’s champions however the northern powerhouse proved too strong. Former Country Champions for more than close to a decade, Byron Bay finished in third spot. For the third and final year, South West Rocks SLSC on the mid north coast hosted the Envirobank NSW Country Championships featuring more than 1500 competitors fighting it out in a full carnival program from juniors right through to masters events. The blue and white Cudgen caps were everywhere as points flooded in from successes across all events and disciplines. A virtual clean sweep of the Iron and Taplin races was backed up by solid performances by key competitors including Anthea Warne and Luke Chaffer. The Open Ironman was won by Luke Chaffer, U19 by Kai Onley, U17 Ironman was Josh Jones and U15 Ironman was Joseph Warne. In the Ironwoman, Anthea Warne won the U17 event, then backed up to get second in the Open event. The U14 race was won by Lily O’Sullivan. Anthea Warne also delivered a trifecta in the water with firsts in the U17 Board, Swim

and Ski races. Luke Chaffer did the same in the Open Male Board, Swim and Ski. Board rescues were also dominated by Cudgen winning the Open, U19, U17 and U15 male events. In the Taplins, results included firsts in the Open Male and Female, U19 Male and Female, and U17 Female events. Success continued on the beach track with teams taking out the U8, U15 and the prestigious All Age Relays. Sawtell competitors didn’t disappoint the crowds either and the club has done a lot of work to build its strength right across the board. Team events gave the club a steady growth in the pointscore throughout the weekend including wins in the U19 and U15 Female Beach Relays, U19 Female Ski Relay, U15 and U12 Cameron Relays and U19 Board Relay. Competitors contributed across the board in individual events, including the club’s Masters athletes and March Past teams. The best performing of the southern clubs was Warilla Barrack Point, finishing in fourth position. The team from host club South West Rocks SLSC ended the weekend in 24th spot in the overall point score in a dead heat with neighbours Kempsey-Crescent Head SLSC. The success of the Cudgen team bodes well for next year when the club hosts the 2019 and 2020 Championships on their home

turf. Cudgen Headland club president Adam Mills put the success of the team down to their commitment and some great coaching. “We’ve got some good programs at the moment and we’ve been able to offer extra opportunities which has meant we’ve been able to hold onto our competitors, rather than lose them to the Queensland clubs. “Our head coach Scott McCartney is fantastic, the kids love training with him and they’re happy to come to training.” The club is looking forward to welcoming competitors from around the state when it hosts the event next year, the first time since 2003. “We’re really excited and it’s a great opportunity for some of our kids who haven’t been to the Country Champs before,” said Adam Mills. Almost 40 clubs competed in this year’s NSW Country Championships from as far south as Tathra. The event injects millions of dollars into the local economy and the support of the Kempsey Shire Council and

event partner Envirobank is crucial to its success. President of the South West Rocks SLSC, Rod McDonagh, said he was extremely proud of his team in hosting the event for the last three years. “It’s a huge amount of work that our volunteers put in to make the event a success. For a small country club, I reckon we punch well above our weight in putting on surf sports events of this size. I can’t thank them enough for their time and effort,” said Rod McDonagh.
