Eve Partland believes Murwillumbah needs to talk about the unsavory characters in town

the number of drug users and “angry” characters using Murwillumbah as their home base.

“We had another smashed window about two weeks ago prior to these four,” she said.

“Friday afternoon I witnessed another violent episode involving a crazy man, woman and child, I ran to the police station but had to speak on a phone before police came out so they got away before police could get there.

“Now I hear of a stabbing just over by the river, the main street is getting pretty frightening even in broad daylight.

“If council allows transient residents that should probably be in rehab to live on the main street indefinitely, should we have more police? Or CCTV cameras placed in centre at the town clock?

“Feeling quite devastated right now.”

Ms Partland posted her feelings online and received a range of feedback.

“Welcome to America should be the sign entering Murwillumbah we need police 24/7 now not in ten years time,” one comment read.

“I really like this town but the increase of awful behaviour like this has really made me question why I moved here every day,” another comment read.

“We all deserve to feel safe.

“Not sure how you stop the ice addicts from wreaking havoc though but at the moment I am just keeping myself and kids away from dodgy areas, but dodgy people seem to be doing whatever they want wherever they want around town.

“A bit over it.”

were well below the highest on record, maxing out at 34.7 degrees, well below the record set in 2002 of a searing 42.9 degrees celsius.

Tweed Heads temperatures were also below record highs reaching only 31.2 degrees celsius as compared with the highest on record of 35.9 degrees in 2010.

Despite this, residents sweating it out may have felt that this month was hotter than usual as the minimum temperatures were well above previous records with Murwillumbah only dropping as low as 17.0 degrees well above the lowest temperature on record of 13.7 in 1978.

The Tweed also failed to cool down with the lowest temperature for January only dropping to 17.6 compared to the lowest on record of only 13.8 degrees in 2000.

While the records are tumbling, rain is expected to reach the Tweed Shire by Saturday, February 2, with a 50 per cent chance of rain and Sunday, February

2, has a 40 per cent chance of rain, according to Bureau of Meteorology.

While the Tweed Shire might be experiencing a record dry January, the Clarrie Hall Dam level was around 94.5 per cent (at the time of print), according to Tweed Shire Council.

Council’s website highlighted that the current water usage is 177 litres per person per day, with a target of 177 litres per person per day.

Clarrie Hall Dam is currently under an amber notice, which means there is a blue-green-algae multiplying, according to Council’s website.

“Water has green tinge and musty or organic taste and odour,” the Council’s website reads.

“Treat before consuming by humans and stock.

“While the water remains suitable for recreational use Council may install precautionary warning signs at some sites.”

By Jonathon Howard MURWILLUMBAH BUSINESS owner Eve Partland has expressed her frustration and concern for the future of the central business district, after her business had four large windows smashed on Sunday, January 27.

The window smashing follows a previous stabbing that occurred near Phil Taylors’ business in South Murwillumbah, but did not involve Phil, as well as several reports of domestic violence in the main street in the lead up to Australia Day and the long weekend.

Ms Partland believes that while a greater police presence would be beneficial, she’s also concerned by the types of characters attracted to Murwillumbah which she believes is fuelled by the drug “ice”.

Ms Partland owns and operates Crystal Treasures on the corner of Queen Street and Wharf Street, where the windows were smashed and will likely be cover by insurance.

Tweed Police were able to track down and arrest the man responsible for the damage, who will now front court.

Initial reports were that the man, who police said had recently moved to the Tweed Shire, used a trolley to smash the windows, but it was later revealed he instead kicked the windows.

Fortunately, no access was gained into the building and the business was able to open on Tuesday, January 29.

Ms Partland said the community needs to start having a serious discussion about

THE TWEED Shire is likely to record its driest January since records began with much of the shire remaining bone dry during the start of 2019, according to Australian weather forecasting website Elders Weather.

Murwillumbah has recorded the lowest ever rainfall on record for January with only 1.8mm of rain falling, making it significantly drier than the driest ever January previously recorded in 2003 when 11.6mm of rain fell.

Tweed Heads has fared only slightly better but also experienced record lows with only 3.8mm of rain falling as compared to 11.8mm in 2003.

Kingscliff has also recorded its driest January on record with only 3.8mm falling, which compares to the driest previous January in 2003 when 11.4mm fell.

While residents have all been feeling the heat, temperatures in Murwillumbah

*Redeemable for 1 month from publication date

Thank you to Team Koala

It has been a great honour to be chosen as 2018 Tweed Shire Australia Day Volunteer of the Year.

I would like to thank the committee and the Tweed Shire Councillors for this award.

I accepted it on behalf of not just myself, and the wonderful members of Team Koala, but also the thousands upon thousands of people that have helped us in many ways.

Thank you so much.

Congratulations to everyone who was nominated for this award.

It was fantastic to see so many wonderful people and organisations in the Tweed Shire and we are very blessed by having so many community minded people here.

Congratulations also to the new Australian citizens and I extend a warm welcome to you.

I was lucky enough to be born in the Tweed Valley, and one of the great strengths of the campaign to save the Tweed Coast Koala population was how enthusiastically both newcomers and long timers have joined together to fight for our Tweed Koalas.

It has been very inspiring. As a girl, the Koalas were so numerous you could easily play “ spot the koala” on a road trip.

Now we are down to critical numbers.

On this beautiful Australia Day, celebrated all over the Tweed Shire, thank you to everyone who have been helping save, the most iconic Australian animal of them all, our beautiful defenceless Koala.”

Jenny Hayes, President Team Koala Inc The Tweed Citizen of the Year Award, presented by Tweed Council, how fabulous one of the recipients was Meredith Dennis, an incredible woman who contributes so much more to the community in so many different ways than is realised, both for us humans and animals.

One can’t help wondering what token or gift the council might give to such an amazing person when achieving this award, to make them feel a bit special.

A weekend away at a resort, a piece of jewellery that could be worn with pride for recognition of her efforts, a dining out experience at a local restaurant or a trophy perhaps that other people can view and comment on?

But no, she got a picnic mat. Yes, you read this correctly a mat.

Now, I do not mean to offend or seem ungrateful ( I did note it was made from recycled material) but seriously councillors this is just not good enough.

It is even bordering on insulting when one thinks of what this woman actually does for others in the area and changes lives for the better on a daily basis often, yet this is the best you can do, giving her a mat, really?

So, if there are any restaurateurs or businesses that would like to give Meredith a more fitting gift for her contribution and recognition of being awarded Citizen of the Year, please drop off such at the Op shop on Queen Street or Wedgetail Hospice, the gifts will find her.

Illegal camping at Pottsville

What a wonderful council we have.

No advertising needed. Come one, come all. Free camping in the dunes and car parks between Pottsville and Wooyung.

Come pitch a tent, or better still park your campervan or caravan and stay as long as you like.

Don’t worry about the rangers or council workers they won’t say anything.

We have once again been inundated by campers, both sides of Tweed Coast Road.

Rubbish and human waste adds to the ambiance of what was once a beautiful natural habitat.

Pinch your nose and hold your breath as you wander through the tracks to the beach but beware of where you step, don’t want your foot getting stuck in heaven’s knows what.

Once again, our council and rangers fail abysmally in their duty of care to the residents and visitors of this once idyllic area.

One measly sign facing the wrong way doesn’t cut it.

But, oh don’t forget, they have to form a committee to discuss what the community wants, instead of acting forthrightly and by the guidelines already in place to control this activity.

M o re s i g n s a n d p ro a c t ive advertising setting out the rules and regulations of the shire would be a great start.

Social media can be a wonderful tool in getting the message across.

If Byron Council can control illegal camping why can’t Tweed Council?

No future space at The Tweed Hospital site, says local doctor

The Tweed Hospital, operating above capacity, has no space to expand.

Everyone except Katie Milne and her Greens want a new hospital with more beds and operating theatres, specialist outpatients, interventional cardiology and radiotherapy.

Full marks to Geoff Provest for getting this $582 million project under way.

The new site was selected by Health Infrastructure NSW, a team of highly qualified and experienced experts.

Whereas the Chinderah site would cost over $200 million to flood-proof, and the remote Kings Forest site would require extensive infrastructure and associated delays, the selected site is flood-free, ready to roll, close to TAFE and offers views to hasten healing and attract Australia’s best.

Mayor Milne’s gang of four, who cost ratepayers a million a year on losses in the Land and Environment Court, oppose all infrastructure needed for the new hospital.

Katie even threatened to have Council boycott contractors who work there.

No wonder their equipment gets vandalised and expensive 24/7 security is required.

Council’s Labor-Green alliance even referred the matter to the Ombudsman in a failed attempt to halt progress.

The new hospital will have a low profile (looking from Cudgen Road), ample parking and, with Council cooperation, little impact on traffic.

The Kingscliff community will soon be grateful for and proud of this tastefully designed world class life-saving facility at its back door.

Dr D. Weston Allen, Cudgen

Keep hospital at Tweed Heads

It is crucial that Greens candidate for Tweed Bill Fenelon is elected.

He represents the only party advocating that the current Tweed Heads hospital be retained and expanded.

The National Party want to build a nine-storey hospital on state significant farmland at Cudgen and the Labor Party at Kings Forest.

In either location, it will give the green light to high rise and Gold Coast style development, increase traffic congestion and destroy the rural and beachside villages in the area.

Both Labor leader Michael Daley and Premier Gladys Berejiklian

recently visited the Tweed and claim that they have overwhelming community support to build the hospital in their chosen locations south of the river.

All I can say is that they must have selectively chosen with whom they met.

I have engaged extensively with people living south of the river and have met very few who support the hospital being built on either of these locations.

Did Mr Daley or Ms Berejiklian visit any of the locals north of the river?

They are outraged that their hospital is being taken away from them.

Many are retired and moved there to have easy access to the hospital in their old age.

They also cannot understand why the Tweed Heads hospital is to be shut down and relocated when there is plenty of room for expansion at the current site.

And why the NSW National Party Health Minister Brad Hazzard disregarded the North Coast Regional Plan, which states that it was always intended that the current Tweed Heads hospital would be expanded when the need arose.

There is no valid reason why The Tweed Hospital cannot be expanded.

It is zoned for high rise.

The bowls club car park is for sale, the bowls club have indicated an interest in selling, and the Council chambers could be relocated to smaller premises.

Recently both the Lismore and Robina Hospitals underwent major expansion and refurbishment works including a 12-storey building whilst the hospitals continued to provide health services.

If it can be done at Lismore and Robina, it can be done at Tweed Heads.

Lyn Dickinson, Pottsville

Cherish your vote for change

In the Tweed around one third of eligible voters did not register, did not bother to vote, did not fill in their vote properly or had their vote excluded.

It is easy to see why people feel disempowered when government seems to ignore what the people want.

Over 70 per cent of the community wants strong action on climate change.

People feel squeezed by living costs.

Affordable housing is desperately needed.

Over 80 per cent want the choice to die with dignity.

Why is nothing happening?

One thing is certain, things will not change if we don’t vote for change.

By avoiding voting or voting informal it actually gets harder to achieve change.

It meant that the current Nationals MP, Geoff Provest, needed ten thousand fewer votes to win because the total number of votes was much smaller than it should be.

In Australia we have no bill of rights.

Previous generations had to fight long and hard to get the basic right to vote for a better future.

If you are unhappy with the government then don’t leave it to someone else to vote them out.

You may not particularly like the other candidates on offer but it is party policies that count more than looks or personality.

Voting is not so hard.

If voting on polling day is difficult you can vote days earlier at a prepoll station or even apply for a postal vote online.

For politicians, if you don’t vote then you don’t matter.

Show them you do matter and you are not defeated.

Show them that you want action, not spin.

Don’t buy bottled bore water

Surprise, bottled water is actually bore water, not spring water as labelled.

Bore water used by farmers to water livestock and their crops.

Golf courses use bore water to water the greens, carefully labelling each tap with: ‘do not drink, bore water’.

Why would anyone want to pay for bore water in plastic bottles when it is known the plastic breaks down into infinite pieces in the water and then into your body.

The water mining industry is depleting our unrenewable resource at an alarming rate to fulfil the public’s fad for bottled water.

It is reminiscent of the 18th and 19th century peddlers selling snake oil.

The irony is that Tweed Shire Council’s state-of-the-art tap water derived from a renewable source (Clarrie Hall Dam) is free.

Many studies have shown tap water by councils to be purer than bottled water. If you care for your body, your family’s health and the health of our water system please break the habit of buying bottled bore water.

Fears child protection law changes could reintroduce stolen generation Special report by Megan Albany PROUD INDIGENOUS Dharug woman Janette Saunders, who has worked for many years in the Tweed Shire in education and community services, said she is devastated by the passing of a new law which enables children in foster care to be adopted without the consent of their birth parents.

Ms Saunders agreed to talk to The Weekly about the law which she said paves the way for a complete return to the policies of the stolen generation and the subsequent devastating impacts on Indigenous communities.

The new laws recently passed by the NSW Parliament place a twoyear time limit on a child staying in foster care, after this time, the State Government can decide to pursue adoption if the child cannot safely return home - even if the birth parents do not agree.

“I’m just as angry as all hell that there’s actually a Parliament backing this and that it’s all been approved - I’m heart broken,” Ms Saunders said.

“We can’t just sit here and let them take our kids.

“Are we going to have to pack up all our children and hide them in the bush like we used to - is this what it has come to?”

Ms Saunders said she believes the change in the law is a moneysaving exercise from a government who “refuses to listen” to input from Aboriginal people in regards to

children in care or to follow protocol and consult with communities.

“Every single child in care costs a lot of money, around $25k per child, per year,” she said.

The most recent statistics from the AIHW (2018) show that, as of June 30, 2017, there were 47,915 Australian children living in out of home care.

“The moment they adopt those children out, the government gets to relinquish their duty of care and their financial duty of care.

“We have got a government at the moment that is not being accountable for their own actions, yet we pay out $40.6 million per year for parliamentary pensions and entitlements.”

The real cost both socially and financially, according to Ms Saunders, will be felt in twenty years’ time when the impact of the continued removal of Aboriginal children from their families and culture becomes once again all too apparent.

“When are they going to pull back from this ridiculous notion that they can continue to steal babies,” she said.

“Whether the kids are black, white or brindle, in twenty years’ time we will feel the ripple effect of these decisions when 90 percent of these children are self-harming and as high as 99 per cent of them are in need of mental health interventions and healing.”

“So, when they take, steal or remove, whatever word they want to use for it, these children, the

question is what will they do to fix that up down the track?”

Ms Saunders, who is a carer for some of her own grandchildren, said that if the government would only listen, they would realise that the Indigenous communities have the answer.

“If they would listen, I would tell them that they need to put money into supporting families to prevent the need for removal,” she said.

“I would tell them if they do need to remove children that they need to be placing these children within the realms of Kinship.

“You cannot tell me that every single black kid in Australia does not have somebody they call family that they can be placed with.”

Ms Saunders said selfdetermination, when it comes to child protection, is the only long term and sustainable answer.

“Child protection is not new. Of course, in the past we would have had problems in our community but like all communities we would have handled it,” she said.

“Parents who were not doing the right thing would have been given a shake up and hauled across the coals in front of community.

“Our Elders would have said, ‘we’ll take care of your baby while you get yourself together and we’ll be watching and helping you’ we know that we can do this.

“We want the government to realise this.

“We want them to stand up and say to us, ‘we know you’ve got this

and so we’re going to give you the power to do this’.”

“This is where we need autonomy.

“I’m not a person who believes in band aids.

“We have peak bodies everywhere else and now we need a peak body for child protection.

“We don’t want them to keep taking our kids - it’s got to stop, it’s got to stop’.”

Ms Saunders said after years of advocating for Aboriginal children in care, she is obviously aware that sometimes there is a need for the temporary removal of children from a parent or parents, but that there is absolutely no need for them to be removed from their extended family or community.

“I work with child safety on a daily basis and I am a Kinship carer for my grandkids who were removed,” she said.

“I had to fight to get them placed in my care and in the meantime, they were horrifically abused in those foster homes and placed at far more risk than they ever were prior to removal.

“I want to know who is actually going to sit down in a room with me and listen to my horror stories because nobody has.

“Who’s going to be looking after these kids when I’m no longer walking this earth - they just need to stop the genocide, full stop.”

YOUR THOUGHTS: Do you believe this law goes too far and risks a return to the days of the stolen generation? Or have you had an experience with the foster care systems? The Weekly would love to hear from you.

THE LEGAL LIGHT! Why a man who killed his parents inherited part of their estate Sometimes courts come to decisions that leave the public scratching their heads. Such was the case of a middle-aged man who shot dead his mother and father after an argument over a bottle of wine.

The court verdict: “Not guilty by reason of mental illness”. He was locked up, but that verdict left open a loophole in the Forfeiture Act 1995, which is aimed at preventing people from benefitting from committing murder.

Joshua Crowther, accredited specialist in wills and estates at Stacks Law Firm, says under section 11 of the Forfeiture Act, the Supreme Court can decide whether a person found not guilty of murder by reason of mental illness can still benefit from the crime.

An “interested person” can apply to the Supreme Court for an order that the rule apply as if the offender had been found guilty of murder. The man’s sister applied, but she wasn’t happy with the result.

“The Supreme Court ruled the man should not get the entire $1 million his parents left him in their wills, but that $100,000 be kept in trust for him, for his needs while in detention and for after his release,” Mr Crowther said.

“The judge also ruled that the man’s court costs, estimated at $120,000, would come from the estate.

It was based on the earlier court decision that the man bears no criminal responsibility for his action due to mental illness, and there should be some provision in his favour,” Mr Crowther said.

The sister was understandably upset at the decision, saying her brother had been rewarded with $220,000 for killing their parents. She launched a petition that the wording of future judgements be changed to “Guilty of murder by reason of mental illness”.

NSW Attorney General Mark Speakman said the term “not guilty by reason of mental illness” meant to show the defendant lacked the capacity to understand that what they had done was wrong. But he conceded the words “not guilty” upset families of victims, as it suggested the defendant did not commit the crime.

As a result the government is reviewing the wording of such verdicts to show that the defendant did commit the crime, but because of mental illness can’t be held criminally responsible. The review should be completed early in 2019.

Tweed Coast Rural Fire Brigade Captain Jared Lee surveys the Elfran Ave fire damage.

Police investigating fires at Tweed Coast Road

By Jo Kennett POLICE ARE investigating a series of fires on the Tweed Coast between Friday, January 25, and Monday, January 28, that may have been deliberately lit.

Emergency services were kept busy with the breakout of fires, which started in dangerously dry conditions when two fires had to be contained on Tweed Coast Road at Wooyung on Friday.

The biggest fire broke out on Tweed Coast Road about 200 metres south of the Coles Express Service Station at Hastings Point on Saturday, January 26.

Captain of Tweed Coast Rural Fire Brigade Jared Lee said they were called to a fire between the service station and the Koala Beach roundabout at 8.18pm on Saturday night.

“We had brigades from Cudgen, Tweed Coast, Burringbar and Fire and Rescue NSW Kingscliff and Brunswick Heads,” Captain Lee said.

“Brunswick and Kingscliff were called in for property protection and were put on standby to protect the houses on the east side of Tweed Coast Road and the Pottsville Public School.

“There was a northerly blowing and it was heading that way.”

The fire took several hours to control with repeated flare ups in the windy conditions and the road had to be closed for about an hour at the height of the blaze to ensure the safety of motorists and pedestrians.

“We had four police cars there for traffic control and the road was probably closed for an hour and a half while crews

worked to contain the fire,” he told The Weekly.

“It was fully out by 12.15am but we left the job open and were back at 6.30am patrolling to make sure it hadn’t flared up again which it hadn’t.

“I believe the police were there today (Monday January 28) looking into it.”

The fire burnt 200 metres of bush along Tweed Coast Road before it was extinguished.

The fourth fire broke out in the bush at the end of Elfran Avenue, Pottsville around 2.30pm on Monday January 28 and burnt almost to the fence line of one home.

“We had crews from Tweed Coast and two brigades from Cudgen looking at this one,” Captain Lee said.

“This one is smaller and the bush is a bit different to the other ones and the wind didn’t get to it as much. Crews were nice and close - the station is right there - which made it easier and crews got to work quickly and got on top of it.

“There were residents here with a couple of hoses when we arrived so it was good that they jumped in to help us.”

A Pottsville man who didn’t want to be named said he heard people running up Elfran Avenue yelling and went to see what was going on.

“It was flaring up quite badly and a few of the boys that live in the street said we need to find a tap,” the man said.

“We found a tap nearby and then Gary grabbed a hose and I grabbed my respirator and we just did what we could.

“The smoke was quite overwhelming, and a lot of people were pushed right back so I went to get my mask so I could

carry the hose up but I forgot my thongs or any footwear at all.

The man said his feet got so hot another man had to hose them.

“Another bloke ran up and asked if I wanted some thongs, flicked me some thongs and we did battle as much as we could,” he said.

“We set the hose up and had guys running the hose out and one guy on the end but then it was too much and we had to bail out.

“That was pretty well the time the fire crews rocked up, so it was perfect timing.”

The blaze was extinguished by 3.30pm but Captain Lee and another Tweed Coast Rural Fire Brigade volunteer remained at the scene waiting to speak to police investigators.

“All fire permits are suspended until further notice, you can’t burn off any garden waste if you are on a property and you definitely can’t light fires on the beach.

“It’s 32 degrees and I don’t know why anyone would want to have a fire.

“Obviously it’s really dry and I don’t think people need to have a fire and people need to do the right thing and not throw cigarette butts out where they can start a fire.”

Social media users were full of praise for the work of emergency service workers and volunteers in saving the area from what could have been a disaster over the weekend.

If anyone has information about any of these fires they are urged to contact Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000.

Ruth Della, curator of the new Gallery DownTown at Murwillumbah’s M-Arts Precinct.

Tweed Regional Gallery heads DownTown There’s now more of the Tweed Regional Gallery & Margaret Olley Art Centre to enjoy, following the recent opening of the Gallery DownTown in Murwillumbah’s CBD. The Gallery DownTown is the annexe of one of the State’s most recognised regional galleries, Tweed Regional Gallery & Margaret Olley Art Centre (TRGMOAC). Located just 1.5km from the Tweed Regional Gallery, the Gallery DownTown is on the first floor of the M-Arts Precinct (corner of Brisbane Street and Proudfoots Lane).

An initiative of Council, the Gallery DownTown aims to act as a driver of creative and economic development in the heart of Murwillumbah’s CBD. The Gallery DownTown’s recently appointed Curator, Ruth Della, has a background in both the arts and business. She was the Creative Director of the highly successful SWELL Sculpture Festival on the Gold Coast for 11 years however started her career somewhere very different – a stockbroking firm.

“I’m very excited about this opportunity to work for such a well-known and much-loved gallery and this role is ideal as I can draw on my experience in business and my passion for the arts,” Ms Della said.

“Tweed Regional Gallery is a destination, whereas the Gallery DownTown is accessible right in the heart of town – easily accessed from the street, visitors can indulge in quality artworks and the beautifully designed space.”

In the first 12 months of operation since opening in March 2014, the Margaret Olley Art Centre contributed $7.38 million to the Tweed economy. The Gallery DownTown aims to build on this

success and further Council’s work to support the establishment of the M-Arts precinct and stimulate the local economy.

“TRGMOAC visitors will be drawn to the town centre to explore the array of cultural facilities, private art studios and local businesses in the Murwillumbah CBD. It’s also just a short walk to another wonderful Council cultural facility, the Tweed Regional Museum in Queensland Road,” Ms Della said.

The inaugural exhibition, Tetralogy: profiling the four collection areas, features works across four areas: Australian portraits; artworks of regional relevance; Australian artists’ prints and the life and work of Margaret Olley.

The Gallery DownTown is open Monday to Wednesday and Friday from 10am to 3pm (NSW time) and Saturday 10am to 2pm. It is closed Thursday and Sunday.

The M-Arts Precinct has become a focal point of creative activity in the region, presenting commercial exhibitions fostering the work of artists of the area and supporting creative development through workshops and tutorials.

M-Arts founder Stephen Webb said the addition of the Gallery DownTown to the precinct would add to the quality of the arts scene and bring more visitors into town.

“We’re hoping to be the catalyst for many more initiatives along these lines – to bring the art out in the open and the people to art - for Murwillumbah to become known for its impressive art scene,” Mr Webb said.

No wipes are flushable Council has welcomed an initiative from Accord Australasia, the peak body of manufacturers and marketers of wet wipes, to educate consumers on the risks of flushing wet wipes.

Its new website www.wipesmart.org.au has a wealth of information about wet wipes and how they should be disposed.

“This site is certainly another step in the right direction to educate consumers not to flush wet wipes but it is clear the industry still believes some wipes are flushable,” said Connections Engineer Elizabeth Seidl.

“As far as Council is concerned, no wipes are flushable.”

Council has had a range of wipes sold as flushable, nonflushable and biodegradable in water for 18 months to show consumers that they do not break down when flushed.

“The wipe marketed as flushable is only just starting to break down 18 months after hitting the water. The biodegradable wipe is still intact, as is the non-flushable wipe.

“For the sake of our sewer system and to protect the Tweed’s beautiful natural environment, we would like all our residents to treat all wipes as non-flushable.”

That said, however, Council welcomes Accord’s effort to acknowledge the significant problem of flushing wet wipes.

The Wipesmart site tells you what can happen if you flush the wrong things (including the plumber’s bill you might get); why wipes in pipes are a problem; and, which wipes are blocking pipes.

The website states: “There is a strong case that wipes are a contributor to sewer blockages.

“Sydney Water and Hunter Water estimate between 75 per cent and 80 per cent of their sewer blockages involve flushed wet wipes, respectively.”

Water authorities in the United Kingdom sifted through the contents of 54 sewer blockages and, by weight, found that wipes made up half the materials blocking the pipes. They went further and identified that baby wipes, as opposed to other wipes, were the main contributor.

In 2015, Australians bought 18 times more baby wipes than other wipes.

“All of this strongly suggests that, in Australia, people are flushing wipes – predominantly baby wipes – that should not be flushed,” the site states.

Customer Service Officer Rose Gomez finds that the wet wipe marketed as ‘biodegradable’ is still intact after 18 months in water. The one marketed as flushable is beginning to break down.

The shows will go on thanks to Auditorium upgrade

Council and frequent users of the Murwillumbah Civic Centre Auditorium were happy to hear news of an upgrade. From left: Acting General Manager Tracey Stinson, Bryanne Jardine from the Murwillumbah Theatre Company, Manager Community and Cultural Services Robyn Grigg, Heather Martin from the Murwillumbah Festival of Performing Arts, Council’s Auditorium contractor, Colin Elliot and the Murwillumbah Theatre Company’s Di Robinson.

The Murwillumbah Civic Centre Auditorium is set to receive a much-needed makeover, thanks to an injection of more than $1 million from round two of the NSW Government’s Regional Cultural Fund.

The Regional Cultural Fund supports projects which will enhance the cultural richness and vibrancy of regional communities.

Council’s Acting General Manager, Tracey Stinson, welcomed the $1.114 million in funds for the project.

“The Murwillumbah Auditorium was built in 1974 and continues to be a much-loved community facility, but of course it is ageing and so needs some TLC to bring it up to modern standards for accessibility, energy efficiency and general functionality” Ms Stinson said.

“We’re grateful to the NSW Government for this opportunity to bring this well patronised community facility into the 21st Century, so it can continue to celebrate, inspire and entertain our community for many years to come.”

The project will include: • replacement of the roof to fix persistent leaks

Living and Loving the Tweed

• technical upgrades to theatre equipment such as lighting and sound • refurbishment of the foyer and provision of accessible toilets • backstage refurbishment and addition of accessible toilets The refurbishment is expected to save regular hirers of the auditorium up to $48,000 a year in hire fees for external lighting and sound equipment. Regular users include the Murwillumbah Theatre Company, DoubleMask Youth Theatre Company, Kingscliff Performing Arts, who share an interest with Council in the functionality of the venue for performances.

Other savings include a reduced carbon footprint and increased energy efficiency by installing 274 LED stage and house lights, as well as eliminating ongoing repair costs to a leaking roof that has reached the end of its lifespan.

The total budget for the project is $1,300,835, with a 14.4 per cent contribution from Council.

Refurbishment works are yet to be scheduled however will commence this financial year.

Australia Day recipients celebrated Two people who have inspired their local communities have received Tweed Shire’s top Australia Day honour.

Sam Ford (below left) and Meredith Dennis (below right) have both been named 2019 Tweed Shire Citizen of the Year for their outstanding inspirational work in the community.

UCTION PART A - INTROD

Sam survived horrific injuries as a result of a ‘coward’s punch’ in October 2009, leaving him with severe and permanent disabilities.

Since his injury, Sam has achieved many milestones and has become a beacon of hope and inspiration to others who have suffered a brain injury. Sam is involved in many local fundraising efforts and participated in the inaugural Tweed Coast Charity Walk to raise funds for the Westpac Life Saver Rescue Helicopter.

Meredith has been a palliative care innovator for nearly two decades. Trained as a nurse, and volunteering at the Wedgetail Retreat community hospice since 1998, Meredith oversees the operation of volunteer palliative care training, home-hospice support services, the community hospice, educational courses, Sunshine ‘Pamper’ Days, the loan of medical equipment to clients and the Tweed Palliative Support Hospice Op Shops. Meredith also takes care of many rescue dogs and horses at her Limpinwood property.

The Volunteer of the Year Award has also been shared between two recipients, Team Koala Inc. President, Jenny Hayes, and Agape Outreach founder, Theresa Mitchell.

Jenny has dedicated the past decade to raising awareness about

the endangered status of Tweed Coast koalas. In 2018, she was influential in obtaining a grant from the NSW Government Parks and Wildlife Service to produce a koala information booklet that provides details about koalas, their habitat, how to deal with sick or injured koalas and a 24/7 emergency contact number. This booklet is freely distributed at the Pottsville Market and to local schools.

Theresa founded Agape Outreach Inc., which provides meals to over 190 homeless people, as well as food hampers, shower facilities, free laundry facilities and low priced clothing.

Through Agape Outreach, Theresa also provides life coaching and emotion and relationship classes, as well as nutrition and budgeting classes.

The Young Achiever in Community Service Award (under 25 years) has been awarded to Jaime Coetzee for her dedication to community service. Jaime is Deputy Mayor of the Tweed Youth Council and also undertakes volunteer work with numerous organisations including her regular Sunday commitment to helping homeless people through the You Have a Friend charity.

The Australia Day Award for Sporting Achievement goes to Perth Glory goal keeper, Eliza Campbell, who made her debut with the team in November 2017. She has also represented her country with the Matildas. Eliza has made a successful career from her passion for football and is helping to show other young players the pathway to achieving sporting success.

The Community Event of the Year Award has gone to the Charity Cup Touch Football Tournament for the second consecutive year. The Charity Cup is in its seventh year and involves a large scale touch football competition where every cent raised goes directly to assist local individuals or families suffering hardship. The tournament has raised a total of more than $100,000 that has been distributed to over 40 local individuals and groups. It now attracts some 300 people from all age groups and backgrounds who come together to promote healthy living and support those in need.

The Arts and Cultural Achievement Award was awarded to the 2018 Murwillumbah Arts Trail, which provided a forum for musicians, indigenous artists, circus and theatre performers, dancers and fashion designers to come together and share their talents in a fun, festive atmosphere for the community.

Reservoir nearly there After 10 months in construction, Council contractors are now filling the new reservoir at Chambers Lookout to undertake the final tests before the three-megalitre tank is brought online in the next few weeks.

Stirloch Constructions Pty Ltd has built the reinforced concrete reservoir with aluminium roof next to the existing reservoir at Chambers Lookout on the corner of Fraser Drive and Terranora Road, Banora Point.

The reservoir has 350mm thick walls, contains 60 tonne of reinforcing steel, is 25 metres in diameter and seven-metres tall.

Local developers contributed to the $2.2 million cost of the project.

Water testing at last years World Wetlands Day.

World Wetlands Day 2019 Tweed residents are invited to connect with their environment this Saturday (2 February 2019) at a family event to celebrate World Wetlands Day. A range of exciting activities, such as bird watching, water bug surveys and water testing, will be taking place along the banks of the Western Drainage Scheme on Riversdale Boulevard from 9am.

There also will be plenty of opportunity to pull weeds and pick up rubbish.

The day is being hosted by Conservation Volunteers Australia, who have been engaged by Council to work with the community to build community ownership of the drainage scheme and ‘restore it to a more healthy state’.

In November 2017, Council voted to inject more than $750,000 into restoring the health of this significant drainage system by undertaking structural changes to remove shallow points in the waterway, increase weed removal, extend the floating reed bed system and involve the community in revegetation.

If you can join in this Saturday, dress to get dirty by wearing sturdy shoes or boots, a sun hat and gardening gloves. Book your spot with CVA Project Officer Shae Kolk by phoning her on 0475 973 888 or emailing her at skolk@cva.org.au so she can ensure there are plenty of refreshments to keep you hydrated.

If you can’t attend on Saturday, join one of the CVA working bees held every Friday along Avondale Drive from 9am.

“The Western Drainage System is an asset to local residents and wildlife alike, so come along and join in,” Shae said. “If you can’t participate in activities, drop in and have a chat to share your experiences.”

The Aboriginal Cultural Heritage Management Plan 2018 information seesion will be held in Banora Point.

Planning on developing?

An information session which aims to increase understanding and awareness of the recently adopted Aboriginal Cultural Heritage Management Plan 2018 (ACHMP) will be held in Banora Point on 6 February.

After six months of successful implementation of the plan, Council is providing interested residents and landowners an opportunity to find out how the plan works and what it may mean for them when carrying out development.

The plan aims to: • encourage an understanding and respect of Aboriginal cultural heritage • build stronger relationships with the Aboriginal community on matters of Aboriginal cultural heritage • provide an effective, legislated related policy framework for the protection, conservation and management of Aboriginal cultural heritage The plan explains Aboriginal cultural heritage and uses mapping of known and predictive areas to help identify and explain legal responsibilities of landowners and developers.

The plan demystifies the operation and scope of the existing NSW legislation and provides the right tools and information for those legal obligations to be adequately met.

Staff of both the Tweed Shire Council and the Tweed Byron Local Aboriginal Land Council will be at the information session to talk about the plan and answer any questions or concerns those attending may have.

To find out if your land is mapped and find out about the ACHMP, visit www.tweed.nsw.gov.au/AboriginalCulturalHeritage or call (02) 6670 2503.

Fed up with abuse over hospital site Water pump stolen

By Jonathon Howard PASSIONATE LOCAL and Tweed Valley Hospital advocate Penny Hockings has broken her silence over what she says has been “systemic personal attacks” in relation to the debate surrounding the Cudgen hospital site and her personal life.

Ms Hockings recently caught up with The Weekly to express her concerns and attempt to curb what she said is “false accusations” towards many locals including herself.

“My primary concern is the level of personal attack occurring in our community over differences of opinion on the site of the Tweed Valley Hospital,” she said.

“A significant amount of false accusations have been made along with a number of personal statements about individuals, myself included.

“Innuendos have been made about my personal relationships, the location of my eldest son’s school, my favourite cafe, my employment and my employer and the charity I work for.

“All of a distressing nature and lacking facts.”

Ms Hockings said there has been significant behind the scenes activity to try and have the local “media run these false stories and conspiracies”.

“Freedom of Information (GIIPA) requests have also been made about myself specifically to try uncover some kind of seedy connection between myself and the government,” she said.

“The fact is I have very personal reasons for wanting this hospital is completely ignored and a non-existent political connection attempted to be made, and

publicly spread across social media despite no such connection existing.”

Ms Hockings said she did not want to mention specific individuals involved in the alleged abuse, but has sent a number of “cease and desist letters”.

“I have visited Tweed Police and logged my concerns,” she said.

“I have placed a public notice in the newspaper as the first step in taking legal action further.

“It has all been largely ignored, mocked and as a result forces my hand to take it further.”

Ms Hockings said she is fortunate to have a small trusted network of support who are aware of everything from the day her troubles started. “ I h ave p ro f e s s i o n a l s u p p o r t (counsellor) as the toll it has taken on my health, feeling of safety and wellbeing has been compromised,” she said.

“I have a supportive group of people from the broader community within the

Support Our Hospital private Facebook group.”

Ms Hockings said it was sad that sending cease and desist letters have “not stopped the personal attacks and accusations” and she is concerned that the next step involves legal action.

“My hope is that the Tweed Valley Hospital continues to be built without delay so that the Tweed and Byron communities have increased health services much closer and with the latest technology and best medical clinicians,” she said.

“I hope that with time as the development grows people see firsthand that their fears are not reality and that the community can heal the rift that has occurred.

“Many people have lost friends over the debate, many people have been personally vilified, many people are too afraid to speak up for fear of retribution.

“I hope in the very near future this disgraceful behaviour ceases for all.”

A EUNGELLA elderly couple and their unwell neighbour have been doing what they say all country people do when times get tough, help each other out.

Unfortunately, a less than neighbourly person recently stole their vital water pump that the long-time neighbours were sharing to ensure their properties survive the drought.

The stolen water pump is a Briggs & Stratton 5.5 hp with Davey firefighter attached in virtually brand-new condition.

It has a steel frame attached and was stolen from Rocky Cutting, Eungella, next to the rapids at the swimming hole.

“Our neighbour had brought the pump down so we could use it and he has a medical condition, it’s pretty heavy, so he left it there and then someone has come and stolen it,” Gisele Somerville said.

“Now he’s had to buy water and he’ll probably have to somehow find $1,000 to buy a new pump.

“It’s been reported to police, so I guess there’s not much more you can do other than call them low lives.”

Ms Somerville said she had recently heard of quite a bit of local thefts with tyres and other items being stolen from sheds.

“Unfortunately, that now seems to be typical of this school holiday period,” she said.

“There seems to be more thieving which is all very sad to think people are just deciding, ‘I want it so I’ll have it’.”

She said she felt sorry for her neighbour and the owner of the pump, Graham Wood, who has a heart condition.

“So he has to be very careful about what he does and so another friend of ours from three kilometres down the road often takes the pump down for him as we can’t help as my husband is on oxygen 24/7,” she said.

“We think it was probably someone from out of the area as generally country people know that you don’t take somebody else’s pump because you know it’s their water source.”

According to Ms Somerville, there had already been a call by locals to set up security cameras in the area, which has seen an increase in illegal dumping since the change in policy for Tweed Shire Council kerbside clean-ups.

Anyone with information regarding the pump are urged to contact Tweed Police on (07) 5506 9499 or Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000.

The closing of one chapter Cudgera Creek clean-up appeal and the opening of another

THE STORY of Murwillumbah Pharmacy goes back over 100 years to when it was first established by the Whittle family.

Over that time, it has faithfully served the residents of Murwillumbah through all the ups and downs that every town in regional Australia experiences.

For Naleen and Vin, their chapter commenced in 2004 when they purchased their first businesses – Murwillumbah Pharmacy and Shortis and Daley Pharmacy, both in the main street of town.

For them, this foray into a new adventure was the culmination of a long held ambition, to own their own businesses. Murwillumbah represented everything that appealed to them, the laid back charm of a country town and the sense of community that came along with that.

Their transition into this new chapter in their lives was made easier by the warm welcome they received and the constant encouragement and smiles from their customers.

Over time, they became part of the ebb and flow of life in town – another series of firsts followed, first homes and then first children.

All along, the town went through the usual cycles of drought and flood, a metaphor for * the lives of the town’s folks, the farmers and businesses.

For Naleen and Vin, new opportunities arose in the Priceline franchise and their horizons expanded both in their personal and professional lives which meant less time in Murwillumbah.

Then the floods of 2017 devastated the Tweed Valley region with profound effects physically, emotionally and financially on many residents throughout.

Eventually, having two stores on the main street became increasingly unviable regardless

A POTTSVILLE man who was horrified by the amount of rubbish he found in Cudgera Creek is organising a clean-up and looking for volunteers with water craft to help.

Tony Kohlenberg posted photos on social media of some of the rubbish he collected but told The Weekly he was surprised by how much there was still in the area.

“I went for a kayak up the creek with my niece who was down for a holiday and it was so disgusting that I went back and did a big clean-up,” he said.

“The more I looked the more there was, and I quickly filled up a wheelie bin size full of rubbish, that was the first time.

“That was plastics and polystyrene but the amount of it in among the mangroves was surprising it was just littered all along the bank.”

Mr Kohlenberg also found a chair, a tyre, traffic cones, disused crab pots and some large pieces of junk.

“I got them out and put a photo on the community website and there was a lot of comment,” he said.

“On Saturday I went 300 metres into the upper part of Cudgera Creek in Pottsville - on

one side is the Pottsville Environmental Park and the other side is behind the bowling club.

“This time I just went in the mangroves and I had at least six feed bags full of plastic bottles and polystyrene - a lot of it is apparently flood debris so this stuff has been sitting there for two years.

Mr Kohlenberg said he had spoken to Council about the rubbish.

“They said there had been a lot of issues in all catchment areas as part of the flood which explains why there is so much of it but I think it’s equally disappointing that it’s still there,” he said.

“I put a post up on social media and there was something like 80 comments and 220 posts on it so I’m going to organise a big clean-up day on Saturday, February 2 at 8.30am.

“It’s a high tide and that’s when you can get into the mangrove and it’s not too hot - I only did two hours on Saturday and I got nearly a ute-load of stuff.

“I’d like anyone who is keen to meet me at the Koala Beach entrance bridge at 8.30am or contact me on 0456 777 294 or tonykohl@ hotmail.com if they want to clean up a different part of the creek so we can arrange for Council to pick up the rubbish.”

of all efforts to keep them both going so the difficult decision was made to merge the two stores into one.

With significant investment already made in converting the Shortis and Daley Pharmacy into Priceline Pharmacy Murwillumbah, it was decided that Murwillumbah Pharmacy would be the one to merge with Priceline.

While the store may not physically exist at 108 Main St, it will always be a part of the Murwillumbah story and the legacy will continue through the staff and customers at 72 Main St. It’s not the end for Murwillumbah Pharmacy, just the end of one chapter. Long may the story continue.

“Devastated” fishing industry outraged by Minister’s marketing program TWEED FISHING industry representatives have delivered a scathing attack on NSW Minister for Primary Industries, Niall Blair over a seafood promotion program with Shadow Minister Mick Veitch saying the government had caused “pain and angst” for family fishing businesses.

The response was sparked by the Minister’s announcement of a Supporting our Seafood Future grants program “designed to build marketing and promotion capability within the fishing businesses” through funding grants matched by the recipients.

The announcement came after recent NSW DPI fishing reforms which Tweed fishermen say have decimated the industry, resulting in an increase in imports to meet demand.

Fishermen say the imports, mostly from unregulated Asian fisheries, bring the danger of diseases such as white spot which has devastated the south east Qld prawn industry.

Markwell Fisheries General Manager Richard Brown called the announcement, which stated, “We currently import approximately 86 per cent of seafood eaten in NSW, we know there is a huge opportunity to increase the production and consumption of local seafood”, an insult.

“We have guys who have lost big chunks of their business if not all of their business - it’s just an insult how far can they push you,” he said.

“Prior to these reforms we told them they would result in the loss of

local produce and increase imports but they’ve gone ahead and taken out hundreds of operators”.

Mr Brown said he thought the grants program was initiated to “make it look like they are assisting us but they have devastated the industry.”

“Now they expect us to go 50/50 to promote the industry that they have devastated,” he said.

“Our group (Wild Caught Fishers Coalition) has fielded numerous calls from fishers gravely concerned about their ability to survive and pay mortgages and fishing fees as well as maintaining a basic standard of living.

“The uncertainty in the process has caused massive mental anguish and we don’t understand why but we do know it’s never been about sustainability.

“It’s just like the farmers of the Menindee Lakes region under the same minister and management.”

Shadow Minister for Primary Industries Mick Veitch said he was skeptical about Minister Blair’s announcement.

“Without our commercial fishers, there simply won’t be the seafood for consumers in NSW,” Mr Veitch told The Weekly.

“This is a government which has ran roughshod over the commercial fishing industry for the last three years causing pain and angst for the sector, particularly the small and medium sized family run businesses.

“Now pressure is starting to build on our fishing co-ops.

“Labor is sceptical of any announcement by this Minister given that he promised a seafood

country of origin labelling program way back in July 2016 and is yet to deliver upon that promise.”

Chinderah fisherman Ben Markwell said the Minister was “beyond hypocritical” for getting rid of so many suppliers and then saying he wanted to boost supply.

“If you haven’t got suppliers to catch it, there is no point promoting it because what are you going to sell?” Mr Markwell said.

“I reckon he’s full of crap - I can’t stand the bloke; when I read the announcement I thought, what a crock.

“He’s almost made it too hard for us to stay in the game, for instance I pay between $5,000 and $6,000 a year to renew my licence which goes to management and NSW Fisheries has the most inefficient management in the country.”

Tweed Heads fisherman Troy Jones said it would be big commercial organisations like the Professional Fishermen’s Association that got the grant money.

“They’re the ones that have been on side with his reform,” he said.

“We don’t need any promotions, people love our product but we just can’t provide it any more, due to the lack of numbers of fishermen.

“There is not one genuine linefisherman left on the Tweed - we used to have eight or nine until the reforms.”

Mr Jones said he doesn’t think it will make any difference which party wins the election in March.

“It doesn’t seem to matter who is in, the Ministers and senior management come and go and do a bad job and the next guy comes

Richard Brown, Gary Bulmer, Carmen Cameron, Chris Martin and Troy Jones at PKG Seafoods.

in and stuffs it all up which is essentially what Blair has done, he will move on and the fishermen that have suffered get forgotten and there is no accountability,” he said.

“There is definitely guys that have had to close their businesses, guys that have been fishers their whole lives and that is numerous fishermen, it’s not isolated.

“There has been real concerns from retailers and consumers when they went to buy product at Christmas and they just can’t get it - I think this is Blair’s response to those concerns but it won’t bring more product.

“Instead of putting a million dollars into promotions they should put it into research on sustainability but that’s the first thing they cut when they got in.”

Mick Woolway, who owns popular seafood business, Scales Seafood said that local retailers were having trouble meeting demand.

“There is definitely less fishermen and less product since the reforms came in,” he told The Weekly.

A spokeswoman from the office of Minister for Primary Industries, Niall Blair said that “commercial fishers on the North Coast are experiencing the benefits of the NSW Government’s commercial fishing reforms”.

“The NSW Government is focused on helping fishers optimise their businesses under the new arrangements, and protecting the resource to ensure future sustainability,” the spokesperson said.

The spokesperson said that the NSW Government has delivered a wide range of assistance measures and now “Fishing businesses on the North Coast are more valuable, more viable and more secure”.

The fishing reforms came into legislation in December 2017 but were initiated in 2012 under former minister Katrina Hodgkinson.

Cudgen Hornets on their way to victory in the tug-of-war

MORE THAN 300 people gathered at Rowan Robinson Park for a big Aussie Breakfast on Saturday January 26, although organisers said numbers were down on last year.

Australia Day Co-Ambassadors Samuel Smith and Anthea Warne both gave speeches, with Anthea speaking about lifesaving and the importance of teaching children to swim.

“73 people drowned in Australia in the last 53 days,” she said.

Anthea encouraged parents to make sure their children had swimming lessons or got involved in Nippers.

Sam Smith started Kids in Need (KIN) Day in 2016 and has since raised $50,000.

“Sometimes in life’s journey things don’t go to plan and we need a helping hand,” he said.

“I have a special needs brother and he’s my best friend and has taught me more than most even though we’ve never had a conversation.”

Sam is writing a book with the message to wave, don’t point, smile, don’t stare and say g’day don’t turn away.

Kingscliff Rotary Club’s oldest member Tommy Grimes raised the flag, followed by a tug-of-war between the Kingscliff Fire Brigade, Cudgen Hornets footy players and Cudgen SLSC members who were the reigning champions.

It was held on the sand making it hard work for competitors with Cudgen Hornets coming out victorious, before the Cudgen SLSC Nippers jumped in for a go.

It was a great effort from the Lions Club and also from around 100 Cudgen and Salt SLSC Nippers who did a big clean-up of the beach and estuary and managed to bag quite a lot of rubbish.

“The current Tweed Hospital is operating at capacity, and there is no room to support any future development on the current site.”

Although Mr Provest remains adamant that the hospital development will go ahead at the proposed Cudgen site, many residents remain opposed to the current site.

Health Minister Brad Hazzard said communities in regional NSW want the best health facilities wherever possible.

“The Liberals & Nationals are investing $582 million in the Tweed, and across the North Coast more than $280 million is being spent on improving health facilities at Lismore, Bonalbo and Pottsville,” he said.

“The government is managing the economy efficiently and producing strong budget surpluses and that provides the funding for new hospitals as well as upgrades and rebuilds.”

Meanwhile, Tweed candidate for Labor Craig Elliot said it was alarming to see “Health Infrastructure ridiculing a dedicated group of concerned residents” who are determined to relocate an inappropriate nine-storey hospital away from state significant farmland at Cudgen.

“Locals tell me that the NSW Liberal and National Government have the wrong priorities and Health Infrastructure appears to have been infected by the same National Party chaos and dysfunction,” he said.

“The March 23 election will be a referendum on where the new Tweed Hospital will be built and the only way to stop Geoff Provest and the National Party from destroying Cudgen farmland and overdeveloping Kingscliff is to throw him out of office.”

CONCEPT PLANS for the $534 million Tweed Valley Hospital have been released this week with an artist’s impression provided to the media to give residents a taste of what the proposed Cudgen site could look like.

Member for Tweed Geoff Provest unveiled the images on Wednesday, January 30, and said they represent a “significant milestone in the planning for the hospital, which remains on time and on budget”.

The plans reveal particular attention being given to landscaping around the hospital.

“It will be in harmony with the existing environment and will create areas for patients, staff and families to enjoy,” the media statement read.

“Natural building materials to complement the surrounding area will also be considered as part of the next stage.

“The internal layout of each service within the new hospital will be the focus of the next stage in the planning process.”

Mr Provest said the design team’s vision for the site “fits in beautifully with the landscape and the environment and preserves the wetlands for future generations”.

“It’s a design the Tweed can be proud of, and it just goes to show what can be achieved on a blank canvas and without the restrictions of existing buildings,” he said.

“The people of the Tweed deserve a world class hospital and a sympathetic and sophisticated design.

“By maximising access to natural light, the hospital is more attractive for staff, patients and visitors but improved light has also been shown to produce better clinical outcomes for patients.”

Mr Provest said the hospital plans were designed around feedback from clinicians, staff and the community in designing this hospital.

“What we have heard very clearly is that there is a pressing need for this new hospital,” he said.

Homeschooler follows her passions to open new small school

By Megan Albany AFTER THREE years of home-schooling her daughter while simultaneously taking on the mammoth task of creating a new school, founder and board director of The Small School Carla Wilson, said she is delighted to finally open its doors.

“I set up The Small School because I wanted children to be in a better learning environment,” Ms Wilson said.

“I was looking for a more child-led, non-competitive, community based learning environment for my child and I was aware that many other parents felt the same.”

The school, located in King St Murwillumbah, will initially have an enrolment of only twelve students and is based on a principle known as democratic education.

“Democratic education is primarily around relationships and community building and because it’s about child led learning, it allows the child to be guided by their own internal passions,” said Ms Wilson.

“We believe the key thing is that children have a voice so they will learn to articulate their thoughts and feelings as that is the pre-cursor to a love of learning.”

Ms Wilson whose own daughter will be attending the school, said that many of the other children attending the school have also been homeschooled.

“Parents were homeschooling because they were unable to find the learning environment they were wanting for their child,” she said.

“Although homeschooling can work for a while, many parents

want to give their kids a little tribe of their own and for them to form meaningful relationships with other adults and that can be difficult to develop when you’re homeschooling.”

Ms Wilson said that while there is a growing movement towards homeschooling, schooling your children at home can be a difficult job.

“Homeschooling was very difficult for our family, it’s a very big job and it takes a very committed parent,” she said.

“We had to have a singular focus on opening the school and homeschooling our daughter and that was all we did for at least 18 months.”

Despite having to balance homeschooling with the rigorous p ro c e s s o f e s t ab l i s h i n g a n educational facility, Ms Wilson said she remained committed to opening the school as she was determined to ensure that a love of learning was reintroduced to the learning process.

“Parents just want their kids to be happy,” she said.

“Learning and school environments have become highly stressful and pressured and cause children a lot of suffering and therefore their families a lot of suffering. “ M y o n e h u n d re d p e rc e n t commitment and resolve is that we create joy around learning.”

Ms Wilson said that many of the new students enrolling in the school were there because they had previously experienced some form of stress associated with schooling.

“They are kids who school has not worked for, so they have some history of distress around schooling,” she said.

Ms Wilson said the school was also established with the aim of allowing parents to be more involved in their children’s education.

“Parents will be welcome to stay for as long as necessary until their child feels comfortable,” Ms Wilson said.

“Parents will be able to stay in a number of different capacities whether that’s being involved with the children or if it suits their child for them not to be directly involved then they are welcome to bring a laptop and work from the school if that is conducive to their business or employment.”

While the school is already at capacity for this year, Ms Wilson said they hope to expand the number

of students enrolled next year and that classes may expand to include kindergarten and year one as well as additional older classes for years five and six.

“For 2020 we have developed a wait list and we are already starting to take expressions of interest,” Ms Wilson said.

Installation quality remains a problem for Australian households The Clean Energy regulator inspects solar installations to check on quality and safety. Their recently released report shows some alarming trends.

Most people have no idea how to tell whether a solar installation is up to standard or not and the body responsible for policing installers has not suspended any installers despite knowledge of repeated breaches of the code.

Greenback volunteers needed

By Jo Kennett POTTSVILLE BEACH Sports Club (PBSC) has partnered with the Lions Clubs of Cabarita and Pottsville Beach to run the Greenback annual charity fishing competition and is looking for volunteers to help with the fundraising event that is held on the June (8-9) long weekend.

Pottsville Beach Sports Club General Manager Michael Judd said that Greenback Chairman Stephen Duffield had done “an absolutely amazing job organising the event to date” but a lot of help is now needed to make the fundraiser a success in 2019.

“We are having a meeting on February 6 and are hoping to get volunteers on board for that,” he said.

“We are looking for volunteers for the following roles: • Greenback Operations and Logistics Coordinator (preferably an active retiree working with Michael and Stephen) who will be the Deputy Event Management 8-9 June.

• G r e e n b a c k S o c i a l M e d i a Ambassadors.

• Greenback NSW and Qld Team Ambassadors.

• Site Safety Manager (with OH&S licences).

• Security volunteers.

• Data entry June 3-9.

• Set up (table) and manage either the ‘Ballina’, Gold Coast or Pottsville sign-on for online (no cash) entries 8am -12pm Saturday 8 June, Outside of BCF Ballina (tbc).

• Set-up of facilities such as tents, seating and temporary fencing.

• Set-up and manage the cash selling of entry tickets and 4WD permits.

Depending on online sales, volunteer numbers may be 4-16.

Pottsville Fishing Club’s Les Hardy with Pottsville Beach Sports Club General Manager Michael Judd.

• Fish auction (fish preparation into bags following weigh in, assistant to auctioneer, money collecting, auction recording).

• Selling raffle tickets (This is a very important role and needs lots of help) • Working with suppliers and picking up prizes etc.

• Planning and helping to manage the event.

• Putting up banners and promotional marketing material.

• Various other jobs.

“If anyone has time to help out and assist Stephen and I in this next stage we would be so grateful,” Mr Judd said.

“As you know without volunteers to help, events like this which raise funds for some really great local organisations would not be a success.

“I am holding a meeting at the club on Wednesday, February 6 so if you are interested and think you can help out we would love to see you at the meeting to explain what is needed.”

Mr Duffield said they were fortunate to have major sponsorship support

from Pottsville Beach Sports Club, Tweed Coast Marine, madkeen, Direct Synergies, Alvey Reels, BCF (Ballina), Gary Howard fishing rods, J&K Fowler Building services and On-Site Fastening Solutions.

“The success of the event is heavily dependent on sponsorship, merchandise sales, raffles, fish auction and the sale of 4WD beach permits,” he said.

“Entrance fees alone cannot cover the costs. Volunteers play a large part of the overall success in the running of the event.”

If you, your members, family or friends, or past volunteers are able to assist phone Michael (0437 095 588) or Stephen (0421 052 135) or download a registration form from lionsgreeenback.com ‘volunteer page’; or mailto:greenback2018@ optusnet.com.au to obtain a registration form or for further information.

Cabarita Beach Surf Life Saving Club benefits from ITV funds

ITV give generously CABARITA BEACH Surf Life Saving Club was successful in applying for the ITV Tweed Community Initiative fund in 2018 and have recently purchased new nippers boards and a large marquee.

Under 13s Age Manager Sharnah Bowen said the club is a volunteer organisation and while they receive some grant funding, the majority of their income is from fundraising.

Volunteers run a weekly barbecue at the beach and raffles at the club house.

“Receiving the ITV community grant for essential equipment like the marquee and boards, frees up club funds for operational costs,” Teniell Jocumsen, the club’s Registrar, said.

“The marquee will get lots of use at the beach each week and also travel to Far North Coast-branch carnivals where the kids compete.

“There are 41 kids in the Under 11, Under 12s and Under 13s that require new boards annually, so they’ll be put to good use.”

Surf Life Saving Club Australia’s lifesaving message in 2019 is: “swim between the flags”.

The ITV Tweed Community Initiative continues to show its support to various local community groups and initiatives with thousands-of-dollars donated to worthy local causes, groups and organisations.

VIEWING FRIDAY 1ST FEBRUARY 9.00am TO 4.00pm*

New interns include Big Bash cricketer MEMBER FOR Tweed Geoff Provest welcomed 18 new intern doctors to the Northern Local Health District at The Tweed Hospital recently.

The new doctors form part of the new intern intake starting across the state and included a sporting personality this year.

“Interns are a vital part of the professional team at the frontline of the health system,” Mr Provest said.

“We are very happy to greet this new team of enthusiastic and talented doctors who want to make a difference and will develop their skills in the public health system.

“NSW has a record 1021 intern positions this intake, more than any other state or territory, and the NSW Liberals & National Government has invested close to three quarters of a billion dollars in the internship program to date.”

Mr Provest extended a particular welcome to Dr Georgia Redmayne who is a talented cricketer, having most recently played in the

Women’s Big Bash League for the Hobart Hurricanes.

Originally from Alstonville, Georgina is one of a number of doctors from regional NSW who are passionate about the delivery of health services in rural Australia.

During their one-year internship, the graduates will complete compulsory terms in the specialties of medicine, surgery and emergency as required by the Medical Board of Australia.

The second year of post-graduate experience focusses on consolidating professional practice and experience in different clinical settings.

The interns will rotate through a network of metropolitan, regional or rural hospitals, as well as GP practices.

The 2018/19 State Budget has added 1,370 health staff, including 300 medical practitioners, 950 nurses and midwives and 120 allied health professionals – resulting in a record frontline clinical and clinical support staff of over 105,000 people.

Pottsville Beach School nears completion A MULTI-MILLION-DOLLAR upgrade to the Pottsville Beach Public School is nearing completion and will soon offer the community 13 new classrooms and new administration facilities (pictured below).

Education Minister Rob Stokes and Member for Tweed Geoff Provest recently visited the school site of the $15-million upgrade.

All classrooms will be air conditioned as part of the NSW Government’s $500 million Cooler Classrooms program that is seeing air conditioning delivered in thousands of classrooms across the State.

Meanwhile, Mr Provest said he is closer than ever to having every Tweed school’s maintenance backlog wiped to zero, ensuring students enjoy the best possible learning environments.

Mr Provest said the NSW Liberals & Nationals Government would clear every

maintenance job currently outstanding in Tweed’s 19 public schools by July 2020.

“Over the past four years this Government has worked tirelessly to collaborate with our schools to ensure they are kept in the best condition,” Mr Provest said.

“We’re now wiping the slate clean and ensuring all outstanding maintenance jobs at our schools such as carpeting, roof maintenance and painting works will be carried out.”

Premier Gladys Berejiklian said the NSW Liberals & Nationals Government inherited a $1 billion school maintenance backlog from the former Labor government.

“We have worked hard to reduce the maintenance backlog and I am delighted to confirm we will now clear it completely,” Ms Berejiklian said.

Sports therapist makes remarkable recovery and starts local business

By Jo Kennett A LEADING sports therapist who suffered a life-threatening brain injury on a surf trip in the Maldives in 2016 has made a full recovery and has opened a new business in Kingscliff.

Sports and Performance Therapist Donna Masing suffered a Traumatic Brain Injury on a surf charter boat trip when she fell and was struck in the temple by her board.

“I should have been working at Trestles (surf comp) but it was my 30th birthday and the trip was a present from my mum,” she said.

“I was surfing at a surf break named Chickens when the accident happened.

“I was only a couple of waves into the surf when I kicked out on a closeout and my board shot out and then hit me in the temple and I was briefly knocked unconscious.

“When I came to, I was washing up onto the reef and I was hidden by the white wash and it was like the connection between my brain and my arms wasn’t working.”

The dinghy driver saw Donna struggling and raced in to pick her up.

“Fortunately there were a couple of nurses on the boat and when losing sensation in my body they taped me to a SUP board and a dinghy took me to a small hospital at Cokes (an island nearby),” she said.

“I have a friend called Barney Miller who is a quadriplegic and I kept thinking of him and how he is okay and a World Champion of Adaptive Surfing so that kept me calm.

“The local doctor said I was better off with the nurses on the boat because he said he had no equipment, no medication, no X-ray machine and no CT scanner, and that I just needed to rest,” she said.

Donna’s condition didn’t improve so she was taken to a hospital at another island (known to surfers as Jails), where the doctor assessed her and said she needed to go to the hospital in the capital Male.

“There was a terrible storm that day and the speed boat driver got lost, the navigation system wasn’t working and there was zero visibility - it was a terrible trip,” she said.

“The CT scan came through all clear and I just wanted to fly home. I’d been working with Bede Durbidge throughout his Pipeline injury the year before and needed to get back home to get him ready to compete in Hawaii.

“I flew home but when I landed I didn’t know my name, what country I was in, who my mum was and I tried to drive down the wrong side of the highway.”

Donna ended up in hospital again where she was diagnosed with a brain injury. It was the beginning of a long journey to recover.

“I was in and out of Tweed Hospital and it’s still ongoing,” Donna told The Weekly.

“There couldn’t do much beyond symptomatic relief but I couldn’t really look after myself and had no family around so I was really lucky that my friends and the Cabarita Boardriders and community rallied and took care of me.

Donna was diagnosed with Post-Concussion Syndrome and

Massage therapist Billie Parsons, Tweed Shire Councillor James Owen and Donna Masing.

experienced ongoing difficulties with cognitive functioning, migraines, speech and balance and was told she would never work full-time again.

“I refused to believe that and travelled to the USA and began Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy (HBOT) under a Concussion Specialist and Functional Neurologist,” she said.

“I started to improve and attribute that to the HBOT and purchased a chamber to continue healing at home in Australia, spending a five full days in the oxygen rich, pressurised environment.”

Now Ms Masing is not only working full-time but has just opened her new clinic, Global Performance Therapy, in Kingscliff where the first HBOT chamber on the Tweed Coast is available to the public.

Donna said that it works by increasing atmospheric pressure inside the enclosed chamber threefold pushes oxygen into every cell in the body and that studies show healing occurs three times faster using HBOT. Ms Masing started working with top level athletes in motorsport, rugby, PGA golf and ATP tennis athletes when she worked in Dubai which she describes as “ a phenomenal experience”.

In 2013 Ms Masing was employed by the World Surf League and Hurley to travel to contests around the world, working with the world’s top surfers before being headhunted to Surfing Australia as a Sports and Performance Therapist.

She continues to work with elite athletes and the general public at her new clinic.

“Predominantly I work with surfers like Macy Callaghan who has just qualified for the world tour, but also Isabella Nicholls, India Robinson and Alyssa Locke - I am really passionate about working with those girls and getting them in to good recovery habits early.

“I also work with rugby players, some of the Hockeyroo girls but also regular sports people who want to improve their performance or are recovering from injury.

“The really exciting thing for me with this clinic is working with up and coming athletes - the next generation.”

Global Performance Therapy is on Level 138 Pearl St at the Kingscliff Professional Services Building.

Lucky escape for ute driver

A MAN was lucky to escape serious injury after an accident on Kyogle Road at Uki around 3.30pm on Friday, January 25.

Emergency services were called to the scene after the man’s dual cab utility was seen crashing over an embankment by other motorists.

The NSW Rural Fire Service and Tweed District Rescue Squad (TDRS) were called to the scene after reports of a person being trapped in the collision on Kyogle Rd just near Braeside Drive.

Ambulance Paramedics were first on the scene and treated the patient and prepared for rescue workers to bring him out of the storm drain the vehicle came to rest in.

According to the TDRS “crews got to work setting up a safety haul line which was secured to the front of a rescue vehicle.”

“The system used a redirection to give the best angles whilst hauling out of the difficult slippery embankment,” the spokesperson said on the squad’s webpage.

“The system was made safe with the use of an MPD (a multi-purpose device rescue belay).

“Being a part of Tweed Rescue guarantees one thing. You will never stop being amazed at how lucky some people can be.”

Traffic and fire protection was being handled

by Uki Rural Fire Brigade The accident was also attended by TweedByron Police District, NSW Volunteer Rescue Association and NSW Ambulance.

Man arrested for graffiti at Chinderah TWEED POLICE have nabbed a 21-yearold man at Chinderah after he was caught writing on a street sign on Thursday, January 24.

The officers spotted the male writing on a street sign and stopped to question him.

“He was in possession of a 10mm ink mop texta,” police said.

“The 21-year-old male was issued with a Field Court Attendance notice for the offence of intentionally marking premises without consent – aggravated.”

The man is due to front Tweed Heads Local Court on February 18.

Sad ending for orphaned platypus

Join the Dragon Boat Club fun in 2019

By Jonathon Howard ONE OF Tweed Shire’s most supportive and active clubs Dragons Abreast Mt Warning is inviting people who have had a diagnosis of cancer and their supporters for a paddle on the beautiful Tweed River from 8am at the Tumbulgum Boat Ramp on Saturday, February 9.

The team is encouraging new members to come and try dragon boat paddling over a five-week challenge.

The activity is a great way to get fit and enjoy the immediate and long-term benefits of physical activity as well as improving your quality of life.

“We will take you and a friend for a relaxing ride in a dragon boat, where enjoyment and safety is our priority and paddling is optional,” founding member of Mt Warning dragon Boat Club, Chris Lonie said.

“A lovely morning tea awaits people on the return to shore prepared by our friendly club members.”

This free event has been running for several years and has been well received by previous participants who have enjoyed the opportunity to have a pleasant break from their usual routine, post cancer.

Dragons Abreast Mt Warning has been paddling on the picturesque Tweed River at both Condong and Tumbulgum for the past eleven years providing fun, fitness and healthy competition for breast cancer survivors and their supporters.

Dragons Abreast Mt Warning is also directly affiliated with Mt Warning Dragon Boat Club, a sporting club for men and women.

Both clubs have proudly competed and medalled in National and International World Title Events in recent years.

For more information about the Community paddle day or other inquiries, please call Anne Bowden 0428 446 482 or Chris Lonie 0402 671 026. You can also visit their website: mtwarningdragons.com

needs. The quicker we can get them to care, the better chance they have at survival.

Unfortunately, by the time most orphaned platypus are found and rescued, they are suffering from malnutrition and exhaustion.

They may seem okay, but they are not. Like the poor baby in the photo, many do not make it and often pass away before they can reach specialised care.

The biggest threat to platypus is the loss of habitat, including the clearing of vegetation, modification and pollution of waterways, netting/traps and, like most other native species, predation by feral animals and domestic pets.

If you would like to help protect Australia’s precious wildlife, you can join Tweed Valley Wildlife Carers. Call the hotline to register for our next volunteer orientation on this Saturday, February 2 from 9.30am to 1pm.

Tweed Valley Wildlife Carers is available 24-hours on (02) 6672 4789.

Call for all injured or orphaned wildlife.

The story of this lost platypus had a sad ending.

Become apart of a close support team who love their fitness in a social and fun environment

By Rachael Lebeter IN THE remarkable Tweed Valley, we are lucky enough to co-exist with the beautiful platypus.

But you may not have spotted one because they cleverly build their burrows into the banks of waterways, away from the public eye.

Platypus are only found on the east coast of Australia and make their homes in our freshwater creeks, rivers, lakes and dams. They rarely leave the water and baby platypus spend 12 months with their parents after they leave the burrow, learning to forage. These monotremes (egg-laying mammals) are unique to Australia and are one of only two species of monotreme in the world.

At Tweed Valley Wildlife Carers, we answer over 300 phone calls on our 24-hour hotline every month.

We rescue around 200 injured and orphaned animals each month.

But platypus so rarely come into care that only a handful of our volunteers have even seen one, let alone rescued one.

The little treasure you see in the picture was found by a member of the public.

Although the platypus looks like it could be big enough to survive alone, it is actually very young.

So young that it will not be able to survive long in its frantic search for its mother.

Platypus that do come into care normally appear towards the end of summer. They are almost always babies that have become lost or who have been swept away by the current.

The young platypus try to find their way home and are often picked up a long way from any water.

If you do find an orphaned platypus on your property or on a roadway, the best thing that you can do is call Tweed Valley Wildlife Carers on our hotline. Because they are unique in the world and are such ancient animals, platypus have very specialised

Order of Australia Medals were awarded to joint Tweed Citizen of the Year Meredith Dennis (OAM) and Tweed local Marie Lindsay (OAM).

Sam Ford’s mother Margaret Ford wrote a great comment via The Weekly's social media page.

“It is so fitting that our son share the Citizen of the Year with such a giving and kind person that gives so much of herself to others,” she wrote.

“Meredith Dennis was the first person to come to our aid when Sam was still in hospital.

“Her help with equipment just to be able to bring Sam home on weekend visits was lifesaving for us.

“And then after 18 months in hospital Meredith again came to the rescue with help in getting Sam a much better wheelchair.

“Meredith is so deserving of this award and we are so proud of our amazing son Sam on sharing this honour with Meredith.”

Modern neuroscience now links the likelihood of many common and unwanted behaviours or unwanted symptoms and responses happening every day in our bodies, being due to our repressed emotions.

Overthinking or analysing or avoiding issues just gets in the way of true emotional resolving and healing.

It’s far more powerful and sometimes overrides the thinking brain, like during a flight or fight response or panic attack and

Element – Air Aquarius use their mind at every opportunity.

They are original, inventive and very smart.

They will often focus all of their energies on a new idea or plan, not caring for all the details about how it will be actioned. The bigger picture is what’s important to them.

Clever, friendly and humane, Aquarius are the easiest people to make friends with but probably the hardest to really know. They are often more comfortable with acquaintances than with those who are close to them.

They are deep thinkers and intellectual people who love helping others. Being dutiful, they would never let a member of their family go without their basic requirements, but they can be strangely, even deliberately, blind to their underlying needs and real feelings. They

are more comfortable with causes and their idealistic ideas than with the day-today routine of family life.

These people can be extremely eccentric, often making a point of being different and dislike being made to conform. They desire freedom and equality for all. They have restless, sceptical minds which pushes them to seek an alternate kind of lifestyle, one that may challenge them mentally.

In relationships, they are surprisingly constant and faithful and they only stray when they know in their hearts that there is no longer anything to be gained from staying put.

Weaknesses are uncompromising, aloof, and sometimes laziness.

However, strengths are loyalty, originality, independent and humanitarian.

What is Shamanic De-armoring?

- by Esther Shamanic De-armoring is an intense healing process that loosens past pain tapes held within the body, frees and expands the overall life force energy and stimulates vital health and happiness.

It is a modernised shamanic technique and ceremony that restores one back to a natural balance.

This process utilises vibratory machines, specific pressure points, breathing techniques, and the movement of one’s sexual energy to loosen, break up, and remove the body’s armor.

There will be a free preview with lead facilitators - John Kent and Kristin Viken, on Wednesday, March 6, 6.30pm - 9.00pm, near Mullumbimby.

Community Garden appeals for funding assistance THE NEW Community Garden emerging next to the Murwillumbah Showgrounds is an inspiring vision of things to come, but funds are desperately needed to help the garden reach its full potential.

The Garden team includes Jenny, Pam, Barry and Cynthia (pictured), who are running an online fundraising campaign on pozible.com, in a bid to fill the gap in funding.

The committee is working to a plan for the garden that according to Barry is “very community-oriented and multifaceted”.

“We expect to be able to offer not only garden beds where individuals can grow their own produce, but also a productive and recreational service and facility for a wide cross section of the community,” Barry said.

“We envisage establishing supply of fresh produce from our gardens and orchard to the Community Kitchen in Murwillumbah.

“There will be provision for disabled access. We intend to apply organic principles throughout.

“There will be plantings of native species also, to emphasise the beauty and usefulness of our local native plants.”

Murwillumbah Community Garden is a project of the Tweed Valley Rural and Community Advancement Cooperative (The Co-op), which has operated for many years as an organic food trading entity for its members.

“The Co-op would have liked to open a garden in past years, but it was not possible then,” Barry said.

“But we are going to turn that around.”

The committee said the garden has an excellent site of nearly one hectare, on Mooball Street, in a

corner of the grounds managed by the Murwillumbah Showgrounds Trust, with whom the Garden committee has a paid-up lease agreement.

“It has been two years of work already, preparing the site, including removal of weed species such as camphor laurel, coral tree, Singapore daisy and Setaria grass,” Pam said.

“There has been substantial support from both Council and the Showgrounds Trust.

“The team has an approved Development Application with Council, outlining approved building and site development plans for the garden.

“An orchard has been planted out with 30 trees to a professionallyadvised plan.

“The young trees are doing well.

“In short, we are poised to make great progress during the year ahead.”

Pam said the committee hope to run a series of workshops in which

community members can take part, so people can engage with their achievements as they happen, and to educate participants on gardening, plants and food.

“We are here to stay, and the garden will continue to evolve forever,” Pam said.

“But we do need funds including works to establish our communal garden area, building works, water reticulation and completion of the orchard are our top priorities at present.”

Residents are encourage to visit the website Pozible.com and search Murwillumbah Community Garden project, and make a donation.

The online crowd funding campaign is running now and until March 16.

Anyone wanting to donate in other ways, or personally, can please contact Barry Firth on 0409 181 473, or email: barryxyz@sov.net.au

MEMBER FOR Lismore Thomas George, Nationals candidate for Lismore Austin Curtin and NSW Minister for Sport Stuart Ayres recently announced $5,000 to renovate the toilets and facilities at the iconic Murwillumbah Croquet Club in Knox Park.

Mr George said toilet facilities at the clubhouse were severely damaged during the March 2017 flood event.

“The 2017 flood event had a devastating impact on the Murwillumbah community, with many residents, businesses and clubs struggling to cover the cost of clean-up and recovery,” he said.

“I thank Minister Ayres, for providing this funding which will renovate both the male and female toilets at Murwillumbah Croquet Club, bringing the facilities in line with health and safety standards.”

Mr Curtin said it’s important the NSW Government continue to support ongoing flood recovery and mitigation projects in the Tweed.

“It is fantastic to see the NSW Government, nearly two years on from the flood event, continuing to show its commitment to supporting those organisations which were impacted by the disaster,” Mr Curtin said.

“Whether it’s a small grant of $5,000 for the Murwillumbah Croquet Club or $3 million for the purchase of flood free land to relocate businesses at South Murwillumbah, every dollar counts in helping this great part of the Northern Rivers get back on its feet.”

Minister Ayres said both Mr George and Mr Curtin had advocated strongly on behalf of Murwillumbah Croquet Club.

“Through the hard work of Mr George, the NSW Government has been able to provide this funding to get Murwillumbah’s croquet players back out on the court and participating in sport,” he said.

Animals to breathe easier in fires

By Megan Albany THANKS TO the generosity of a Stokers Siding couple, animals caught up in house or bushfires will now be able to be treated onsite for smoke inhalation.

Instead of buying Christmas presents for each other at the end of last year, animal lovers Vicki Barnes and Mal Ritchie decided to purchase lifesaving Animal Oxygen Masks for both domestic animals and wildlife for use by the Rural Fire Service and Fire and Rescue in Murwillumbah.

“We were concerned that in either a house or bushfire that animals may be smoke affected, and these masks allow the fire fighters to give oxygen to animals until they can be assessed by a vet,” Ms Barnes said.

Ms Barnes presented Rural Fire Service Superintendent Mr David Cook and Fire and Rescue NSW Murwillumbah Captain Mr Greg Hayes with a set of masks for them to use in the line of duty.

“There are three masks in each kit and they will fit anything from a guinea pig to a small horse and can be used for all animals including koalas who are often smoke affected in bushfires,” she said.

Ms Barnes said she was prompted to purchase the masks after a dog passed away last year in a house fire.

“I just love animals so I started to do a bit of research,” Ms Barnes said.

“After speaking to the firies I found out that they often try to give animals oxygen and they end up using their own oxygen masks or sometimes the ambo’s put masks on them when they pick them up.

“Often the animals just need a bit of oxygen so these masks could be the

difference between them living and dying.”

While Ms Barnes acknowledged that saving human lives always came first, she said that many firefighters were also animal lovers and that they were very grateful for the kits.

“I really want to thank both Fire and Rescue and the Rural Fire Service for their willingness to protect our muchloved pets and our wildlife as well as us and our properties,” she said.

“No one expects them to have another job, but many of them have animals themselves and often when there’s a house fire they will go back in for pets, god love them, so I just wanted to make it easier for them,” she said. “(Superintendent) David and (Captain) Greg were really receptive to the masks,

I hope they never have to use them, but it made me feel great knowing they have them.”

Due to the positive response from the firefighters Ms Barnes said she is now looking at raising funds to purchase a further ten kits at a cost of $770 for other fire teams to use across the region.

“My first step is to distribute them across our shire and I’d like to set up a Facebook page for people who are interested in helping out.

“There are so many animal lovers out there and I’m sure they’d be just as devastated as I would if something happened to their animals.”

People interested in either donating for the purchase of Animal Oxygen Masks or getting involved can contact Vicki at kellybellavb@gmail.com

Man injured in nasty fall EMERGENCY SERVICES workers were called to Hastings Point headland on Saturday night, January 19, to bring out a man injured when he fell on the rocks and fractured his ankle.

The intricate operation to get the man to a waiting ambulance took rescue workers, police and paramedics one hour and forty minutes.

President of the Tweed District Rescue Squad (TDRS) Drew Carr said that the squad was activated to reports of an injured person on the southern side of the headland.

“Ambulance paramedics treated a young man who had suffered an ankle injury in the rocky terrain,” Mr Carr said.

“I think he told his brother he was going out and when he didn’t come back after about ten minutes he went and found that he had fallen and was injured.

“It was right out on the rocks on the southern side - it’s like a ravine where he had fallen there and the 4WD ambulance and our two 4WD vehicles had to gain access via the beach.”

Mr Carr said the man had sustained a compound fracture to his ankle.

“That’s a visual fracture so the bone is visible and he had lacerations to his head,” Mr Carr said.

“He would have been in a lot of pain so the paramedics had administered pain relief - he was a good sport and was joking a lot.”

Mr Carr said it was a challenge to get the man out and to the waiting ambulance because of the narrowness of the ravine.

“That made patient handling very difficult - normally there would be room to get the rescue board in from the side and have people on the sides but we could only get someone at either end,” he said.

“It wasn’t just getting the patient onto the Stokes Litter from the rescue board, it was also getting him from that position out onto the beach.

“There were other sections that were quite vertical so we had to set up a vertical safety line so that during the extrication if something went wrong such as someone slipping or losing their grip he wouldn’t tumble into the water.”

Mr Carr said that TDRS volunteers were helped in the rescue effort by police and paramedics.

“We also used a hand over hand technique to move the stokes litter out of that area so we pass it through and then the volunteers at the end walk up to the top and continue passing it through.

“It was quite an operation but the man, who was in his early 20s, was very grateful for all the help.

Tweed Valley Weekly Locals Supporting Locals

Tweed residents target by slick scammers

By Jo Kennett THE TWEED Shire is under attack from an increasing number of scams looking to dupe locals of their funds using a range of cunning tactics.

Tweed Police continue to report that the region is not immune to the growing number of scams impacting people around the country.

One Tweed shire victim, who fell prey to an unknown male claiming to be from Telstra, was reported to have lost nearly $20,000 from his bank account.

In response to the incident police have once again issued a warning to never provide anyone access to your bank accounts.

They advised that while they are currently investigating the matter and it is difficult to identify offenders, especially those that are based overseas, which is often the case.

However, it is not just individuals being targeted.

A Northern Rivers businessman also recently lost a large amount of money in a scam after being sent an email to inform him that a company he had dealt with previously had changed their bank account for payment.

After paying an invoice to the new account it became apparent that he had been emailed by hackers and that the six-figure amount had gone to scammers. Tweed detectives are currently investigating the matter.

In a worrying development that indicates scammers are no longer limiting their communication to phone and internet, Tweed Police said they received information regarding a possible scam in the Ballina, Kingscliff and South Tweed areas, with a male going doorto-door selling fire extinguishers and fire blankets.

Scams have reached an all-time high and it’s time to fight back

The suspect had been asking for credit card details and is unable to provide the products at the time of transaction or legitimate identification for the sale of the products.

Police are reminding the community to never provide credit card details to door to door salesmen or over the phone.

Other scams currently being reported include phone calls claiming to be from the Australian Cybercrime Online Reporting Network (ACORN) asking for remote access to computers and PayPal log in details.

Should you receive calls claiming to be from ACORN, you are advised to hang up and contact your local police station.

There have also been numerous reports of people receiving calls saying they are under investigation by the Australian Tax Office.

These calls often include threats of police arrest and once again you are advised to hang up and contact police.

A spokesperson from the ACCC told The Weekly that the most commonly reported scams in NSW were phishing scams involving threats (to life, arrest or other) and identity theft scams.

Scams which cost victims the most financially, according to the ACCC are investment scams, dating and romance scams and remote access scams.

Several elderly residents have also visited The Weekly including a 94-yearold who was told her internet bill had elapsed and the police were on their way.

The resident told the scam caller that she has never had an internet connection.

Protecting yourself from scams According to the ACCC scams can impact people of all backgrounds, ages and income levels, but there are also simple things you can do to protect yourself.

If someone contacts you out of the blue, be alert to the possibility that it could be a scam.

Always do independent research and try to verify the other person’s identity.

If something is too good to be true, it probably is.

Do not open suspicious text messages, emails, or click on links in these messages.

Do not respond to phone calls asking for remote access to your computer, even if the caller mentions a well-known company.

Scammers will try to get you to install a program to ‘fix’ your device, which is actually a virus that will give them your passwords and personal details.

For more information, or to report a scam, visit Scamwatch.

You can also sign up to radar alerts to receive updates about the latest scams.

Open Data Hub available TWEED SHIRE Council has launched a Tweed Shire Open Data Hub, giving the public direct access to selected non-private spatial data managed by Council.

Open data can be freely used, shared and built-on by anyone, anywhere, for any purpose.

The Open Data Hub includes spatial data such as land and roads, fauna corridors and vegetation, community facilities such as sporting fields, playgrounds, public toilets, waste collection, footpaths, cycleways and Council buildings.

Much of this information is currently available for access via the Tweed Maps Online portion of Council’s website. The Open Data Hub extends this access by allowing developers to directly download this spatial data for inclusion in their own applications.

Council’s Information Technology Manager, Kenneth Holdsworth said the release of the spatial data was in line with the NSW Government’s Open Data Policy to increase public access to government information.

“We’re hoping to encourage innovative solutions with social, economic and environmental benefits, while demonstrating Council’s commitment to transparency and accountability,” Mr Holdsworth said.

“The Open Data Hub has endless possibilities because it enables people to create their own social or business applications.”

AC/DC Tribute Band coming to rock Seagulls AUSTRALIA’S GREATEST AC/ DC Tribute Band is set to rock Seagulls Club on Saturday, February 9, who will take the stage and belt out everyone’s favourite rock tunes.

When you think of classic Australian rock bands, it’s hard not to think of AC/ DC and the decades of hits as perhaps one of the greatest rock bands of all time.

Highway to Hell, Back in Black, It’s A Long Way to the Top and of course Thunderstruck, the list goes on, and on.

Join in the rock fun from 8pm for Let There Be AC/DC as it was meant to be played.

The dedicated band members all grew up addicted to the rock ‘n roll tunes of Bon, Brian, and their unforgettable music.

Spanning over several hours, the show doesn’t just bombard you with hit after hit, but also focuses on the AC/ DC journey of the band from humble beginnings to their current standing among the world’s elite bands.

There are no Dirty Deeds here, just a Rock ‘n Roll Train you’re all invited to board.

“It’s more like a homage to the legacy and the memory of AC/DC from their

early years right through to Bon Scott’s death and the emergence of Brian Johnson before he was forced from the band due to health issues,” the band said.

“We prefer to think of the show as celebrating the life and the music of one of Australia’s greatest ever bands.”

Free show kicks off from 8pm (NSW) in Lakeview Lounge.

New book biodiversity

A NEW book showcasing and promoting the biodiversity values of the Tweed Shire has recently been published.

The soft cover 44-page book is a collaboration between the Natural Resource Management Unit of Tweed Shire Council, Caldera Wildscapes Publishing, Caldera artists and photographers.

Rarely seen flora and fauna species found within the Green Cauldron region are depicted using works from Caldera Art exhibitions 2008 - 2017 as well as superb photographic images.

Council’s NRM Unit selected 52 species recognised as being significant in terms of their localised conservation status and in need of more public awareness regarding threats to their existence.

Several original paintings featured in the Hidden Wonders book are currently on exhibition in the Caldera Wildscapes Gallery.

“It’s the perfect affordable book to send to friends and relatives living outside the region since it showcases the remarkable diversity of plants and animals we have here in the Tweed,” project co-ordinator Andy Reimanis said.

Copies of Hidden Wonders of the Tweed are available in Murwillumbah at the Caldera Environment Centre, The Foundry, Tweed Regional Gallery South. Murwillumbah PO or Caldera Wildscapes Gallery (adjacent Courthouse Hotel).

Mavis’s Kitchen announces new head chef “The Tweed Shire is a great place to live and work,” he said.

“And to be given this opportunity at Mavis’s Kitchen is a dream come true for me.”

Having completed his apprenticeship at Star Casino and working at Peppers Salt Resort and Spa, Michael has developed as an outstanding chef.

He’s received three chef hats over three years from the Australian Good Food Guide.

Michael said he was hoping to build on the amazing legacy of past Mavis’s Kitchen chefs.

“There’s already some amazing dishes at Mavis’s, so I’m just bringing my own style, freshening the dishes up a little and including several new breakfast options,” he said.

“My style is fairly simple, flavour combinations that work with a few twists here and there.

“It’s also definitely nostalgic, a lot of the food/flavours I use remind me of my family and my childhood growing up.”

COLETTE

wi

Colette, the Nobel prize winning proto-feminist French writer who in the early 20th century shook the literary circles of Paris not only with her writing but also with her unconventional sexual life, has the face and the look of Keira Knightley in the biopic Colette directed by Wash Westmoreland.

Movies dedicated to the lives of writers are typically geared towards older audiences, but Colette is a female-empowerment story that will appeal to and inspire young women, in the same way that her most popular character, Claudine, did at the time.

The film starts when Sidonie-Gabrielle Colette, a young woman from a country village in Burgundy, marries Willy, a charismatic and dominant author and publisher who initiates her into the bohemian life-style of Paris. Eager to capitalize on his wife’s writing talent, Willy convinces Colette to write novels under his name as the purported author. The phenomenal success of the series of novels titled Claudine – coming of age stories inspired by Colette’s childhood in the countryside - makes Willy a well-known writer and “Colette and Willy” the “first couple” among contemporary celebrities. However, as the Claudine novels become international best-sellers, Willy is determined to maintain his hold on his wife, whatever the emotional cost. He coerces Colette to write in increasingly cruel ways, for instance by locking her in a room until she has produced updates on the next novel in the series.

New head chef in town Michael Lee has a passion for cooking

POP UP BAR

Over time the lack of recognition for her work becomes unbearable for Colette, who starts pursuing a career in a music hall and begins to make her own money, and begins exploring sexual relationships with women, displaying a character that is fully at peace with her bisexuality and becoming a formidable public figure, who exerts an immense cultural influence and creative power for which she is still a household name today.

ONE OF the Tweed Valley’s mostloved dining and celebration venues Mavis’s Kitchen has announced the appointment of a new acclaimed head chef, Michael Lee. The Weekly caught up with Michael this week to find out about his vision for Mavis’s Kitchen including revitalising the menus.

Born in Edinburgh, Scotland, Michael started cooking in his early 20s and now has about ten years’ experience under his belt, plus several chef hat awards.

During the past decade he has developed a passion for cooking outstanding produce with only the freshest ingredients, something Mavis’s Kitchen offers in spades.

“It’s amazing to be given the job of head chef at the world-famous Mavis’s Kitchen,” he said.

“I’ve been really impressed by the current menu, so I’ve really just sought to freshen up some of the mains and have introduced a lot of new breakfast options.

“I’m also really amazed by the amount of fresh produce grown onsite at Mavis’s, we really do offer all the ingredients fresh and locally grown.”

Among some of the new breakfast dishes includes the delicious za’atar poached eggs with beetroot hummus, smashed avocado and rose water hollandaise.

Michael and his wife Angelique have three young children and live at Banora Point, where they are hoping to remain.

Salt Surf Life Saving Club to open

GOLD COAST BIG BAND JAZZ 2PM DST DARREN J RAY 7.30PM DST

THE GRAND opening of the Salt Surf Life Saving Club House will take place on Friday, February 1, following more than 14 years in the making for one of Australia’s newest surf clubs.

The story of the Salt SLSC House dates to 2004 when the club was founded and joined the other nine clubs that make up the Far North Coast branch of Surf Life Saving NSW. At the time, Salt was the first new surf club to form in Australia for many years.

The formation of the surf club was part of the conditions placed on developers Brian and Kathy Ray, who were tragically killed in a plane crash before seeing the club in operation, in order to gain approval to construct the Salt Village development.

“Their legacy to the surf club was initially carried on by their children, and the band of original members who pushed through the many early obstacles.

“The torch has now been passed to residents who have made this area their home.”

After many years of planning, fundraising and preparation, construction of the lower floor expansion started on Monday 16th November 2015.

This was completed by September 2016, just in time for the start of the patrol season.

The expansion allowed the club to store all its lifesaving equipment in the one facility for the first time ever.

Salt SLSC Club President Greg Lovett paid tribute to the many members who were part of realising the vision of a functional lifesaving equipment storage facility, including past Presidents David Hoare and Mark Humphries.

Mr Lovett said the club is looking forward to welcoming new members, particularly active members for patrols but also general

LONG-TIME Murwillumbah Theatre Company (MTC) member Rosemary Hume was recently honoured with a Hero award at the Gold Coast Theatre Alliance Awards on Tuesday, December 11.

Rosemary joined MTC shortly after moving to Murwillumbah in 1996 and before that had acted with Grafton’s Pelican Players from the mid-80s.

Her first play with MTC was Under Milkwood in 1997, her other performances include Midsummer Night’s Dream, Scarlett O’Hara at the Crimson Parrot, Neighbourhood Watch, and twice as Letitia in The Vicar of Dibley in 2012 and 2018.

In addition to acting, Rosemary has worked a range of capacities within MTC over the past 22 years. She has been a committee member for many years, stage manager and Front of House coordinator.

In recent years her main role has been as Publicity Officer, a job she has excelled at.

Rosemary assiduously follows her timetables and handles everything from posters, road banners, radio station interviews, newspaper articles, ticketing,

members who don’t have to do patrols but are encouraged to volunteer in other areas “for the betterment of the lifesaving movement” “We kick off the celebrations with a VIP opening which is not open to the general public on Friday afternoon, February 1 with Senator Concetta Fierravanti-Wells attending along with President of SLS NSW Dave Murray, and local politicians including Justine Elliot and Geoff Provest,” Mr Lovett told The Weekly.

“We have a ticketed event on Friday night which is for members but non-members, particularly those who are looking at joining the club, are welcome to come along.

“There are limited tickets still available for the opening night celebration with Casey Barnes and the Kick providing the entertainment with light refreshments and finger foods available.”

Although the clubhouse has no bistro or bar available to the public due to planning restrictions they are planning on eventually opening a kiosk on the ground floor which will be open to the public.

The venue is available to hire but that is currently for members only in line with those restrictions .

“We are working with council to see how we can look at possible changes in the future but with the current approvals we are restricted at the moment,” Mr Lovett said.

Ribs, darts and old-fashioned hospitality at Crabbes Creek IF YOU haven’t had a chance to visit one of the loveliest venues in the Tweed Shire, there is plenty of reasons to get down to the Crabbes Creek Hall this weekend.

Every Friday night the hall serves dinner from 5pm with a different cuisine each week.

This Friday, February 1 is the turn of the Rib Shack featuring sticky delights like Jumbo Beef Short Rib with Spicy House Glaze, Chilli Cheese Grits and Smokey Ranch Beans. and there are plenty of delicious vegetarian and vegan options like Haloumi with Smoked Honey and Cajun Tofu Skewers.

For the sweet tooth try out the Dark Chocolate Salted Ganache Tart with Vanilla Cream.

The Rib Shack uses local, free range meat and guests are welcome to BYO alcohol, making it a cheap and fun night out.

Once you have your fill of food you can take in a game of darts, because on the first Friday of each month is the monthly darts competition which starts at 6pm.

Every second Thursday night is Indonesian night.

The historic hamlet is situated in one of the prettiest valleys in the Tweed and

visitors are greeted with open arms by the friendly locals.

The hall is 111 years old this year (but it’s really just a baby compared to the quirky 128-year-old Crabbes Creek General Story, built in 1890) and still has the old swinging fans and true old-fashioned hospitality.

If you’re looking for some good down to earth fun you can’t go wrong with this fantastic little venue where you are guaranteed a night to remember.

THE AUSSIE Versus Stokers Memorial Cricket Match took place on Sunday, January 2, at Les Cave Oval in Murwillumbah.

While Stokers were too good in 2018, this year belonged to the mighty Aussie side who came out firing from the first ball, according to Aussie captain Lee Balgowan.

The one-day match, which has been running since the early 1970s, and is today a memorial in honour of the former Australian Hotel which burnt down in 1981.

The iconic pub remains immortalised in a special urn that carries some of the hotel’s ashes and was expertly crafted by Stokers Siding Pottery under former owner Bob Connery and encased in leather

by Greg Balgowan.

The urn is a coveted prize that’s highly sought after, with each year’s winner inscribed on the urn’s wooden case.

Both sides were well attended this year with enough players receiving the latest jerseys and a steady flow of locals to watch on as spectators.

TWEED

Lee said his Stokers side won the toss and elected to bowl first with play underway at around 11.30am.

Stokers captain Donny Richards was in fine form on the day and was firing up his side eager for a win.

The final scores were 5/268 at the end of the overs to the Aussie side and 9/236 to Stokers, making the Aussies the 2019 champions.

“It was a great day out for everyone with a lot of enjoyment by all,” Lee said.

aintaining a healthy weight should be a realistic goal we set, rather than the usual weight loss goals we aim for. Many people let their weight go in different ways for different reasons. There are younger Australians who are simply too busy to make healthy meals at home and often opt out for take away, especially with food delivery aps making it so easy. On the other hand, the elderly, are malnourished, and need to eat better to maintain a healthy weight or actually gain some weight.

Gourmet Meals is not about ‘weight loss’ but more about eating the right amount (portions), getting the proper intake of calories, obtaining the required nutrients from well balanced and nutritious meals, and, the large variety of meals available will ensure you actually enjoy meal times with the option of having something different every day. All resulting in a ‘happier and healthier you’.

Tweed Valley Water Supplies – still in business after 23 years.

Tweed Valley Water Supplies has been delivering water all over the Tweed Shire for the last 23 years. The founder and owner of the company, Scott Ousby, has worked in the transport industry for some 40 years. He has the experience to tackle all driveways and, with a smaller turning circle, our trucks can squeeze into smaller sizes than most. We provide quality, potable water right to your tank.

In the last few years the company underwent a management restructure and we are now operating with a new team and a new truck under Scott’s guiding hand. Scott is a local man who always makes time for a friendly chat and prides himself on his easy-going nature and efficiency.

We also supply a full range of water storage tanks and pumps. Tanks are available in all shapes, colours and sizes and we can provide complete installation customised to your needs. Also available for concrete tank refurbishments and repairs. Replacing a concrete tank can be an expensive endeavour and we effectively repair your tank to last at least another 10 years for a fraction of the cost. We are happy to

e. emersonwylie92@hotmail.com

A sacrificial anode is a vital part of your water system, and having it inspected can be the difference between an efficiently working system and a costly replacement.

Manufacturers recommend that you maintain the anode in your system in order to prevent damage from rust + corrosion.

THE ANODE IN YOUR SYSTEM SHOULD NEVER BE ALLOWED TO CORRODE AWAY, WHATEVER TYPE OR BRAND OF SYSTEM YOU HAVE SOLAR, ELECTRIC, GAS OR HEAT PUMPS Cutaway section of a typical electric hot water heater

FOR A LIMITED TIME we will check your anode in the Tweed & Gold Coast area FREE OF CHARGE.

[ I’M FREE ]

w w w. m c g u i n e s s f u n e r a l s . c o m . a u

Don’t grieve for me, for now I’m free.

I’m following the path God has laid, you see.

I took His hand when I heard His call.

I turned my back and left it all.

I could not stay another day, To laugh, to love, to work or play.

Tasks left undone must stay that way, I found the peace at the close of day.

If my parting has left a void, Then fill it with remembered joys.

A friendship shared, a laugh, a kiss, yes, these things I too will miss.

Be not burdened with times of sorrow.

I wish you the sunshine of tomorrow.

My life’s been full, I savored much, Good friends, good times, a loved one’s touch.

Don’t lengthen it now with undue grief.

Lift up your hearts, and peace to thee.

God wanted me now, He set me free

In Memoriams Those special memories of you will always bring a smile if only I could have you back for just a little while.

Then we could sit and talk again just like we used to do , You always meant so very much and always will do too.

The fact that you’re no longer here will always cause me pain, But you’re forever in my heart until we meet again.

Holding with Shot Judy Tuckey THE SILLY season, pennant, is now looming closer with the draw for the games to commence March 18 now completed.

2018 TBD pennant saw one stand-alone side in Grade 1, courtesy of WBNSW, and 3 sides nominated in Grade 2. The 2019 draw hasn’t particularly improved the situation as this year there will be 2 clubs only nominated in these two grades. So, now we have 2 two horse races that can hardly be considered much of a competition, even though the ladies get to play their ‘Home’ and

Between the Flags

Cudgen Headland SLSC - Keith Kennedy THIS WEEKEND the Club will host the NSW Country Titles which have not been held in the Far North Coast Branch since 2003, which Cudgen hosted the Junior and Senior Carnival.

Competitor entries total over 1400 whilst 140 officials have been appointed for the two day carnival.

The Juniors ages range from 8 years to 14 years, with Senior age divisions of U15, u17, u19, Open and Masters age groups.

Separate point scores are held for Junior and Senior which are added for the winning Club total.

Cudgen are keen to retain the overall point score which it won the last two years at South West Rocks.

Surf boat competition will commence early Saturday morning adjacent to Kingscliff Bowls Club whilst board riding will be at North Kingscliff if surf is suitable. Four water competition areas will be used as well as areas for beach sprint and flags.

The march past is programmed for 4 pm on Saturday lead by the Gold Coast Pipe Band. Extra car parking will be available north of the Bowls Club and in the creek area of Jack Julius Park, where the public can use the creek board walk to the beach.

The carnival started in 1963 as North Coast Branches and South Coast later was added at their request making five

‘Away’ rounds twice in an endeavour to “provide teams with suitable game time to win a pennant” as stated in the 2019 State Pennant COP’s. How ridiculous as, with the elevation and regression rules in place, this fiasco could continue to repeat itself for years to come.

Listening to selectors, who are faced with the daunting task of choosing their players for the 2 top grades and not wanting to overlook anyone, leaves a lot to be desired when, as at the end of the day, our pennant players are NOT graded and never have been. One has to have sympathy for these ladies as they perform this thankless task.

Maybe something should be done to bring more competitiveness into the game. Perhaps an appeal to WBNSW for dispensation for our district,

Branches in total. When the Illawarra Branch was divided and South Coast created in 1971, it became NSW Country and was administered by a Country Committee until 2003, when it was last run by them before NSW State Centre took over.

The Juniors used to run their carnival separately and at a different time and venue. Cudgen hosted it in 1977. Since 2004 they have also used the same venue as the Senior. What use to be a 4 day event has now been reduced to the current two.

Our Club competitors and managers are to meet at the Surf Club on Friday at 6 pm for a briefing and to collect their carnival uniforms. Anyone who can assist in the carnival arenas set up on this Thursday and Friday are most welcome.

At the Inter-State teams carnival last week at Newport, N.S.W. again dominated on 289 points from Qld 254. Only 10 points then separated WA, Vic and NSW Country, who finished 5th. Cudgen had 14 members in the Country team which had a youth section this year. The Youth sections acquitted themselves sell, particularly in team and events.

Joseph Warne won the Rescue Tube Rescue event. In the Senior, Luke Chaffer won the ski and was third in the Iron man.

The U15 year Pathways Cup Inter-State was also won

by N.S;W. with our Lily O’Sullivan giving an outstanding performance in winning the surf, board and iron woman and in the winning teams for the board rescue, board relay, Cameron relay and iron relay.

Australia Day saw approximately 100 of our members participate in the clean up of the beach and paddle in after raising the Australian Flag on the Clubhouse.

and any other small outlying country district that, for that matter, who could also be in the same position, from competing in Grade 1 and request that the Grades to be played revert back to 2’s, 3’s and 4 within the smaller Districts so as to eliminate the ludicrous imbalance as seen now.

At least the two lower grades have several weeks of pennant with Grade 3 to entertain six sides and Grade 4 has five sides doing battle. For the good of the sport and to hold players interest, our district definitely needs to orchestrate a change to the grading. So, where do we go from here, ladies?

See you on the greens. Good bowling everyone.

On the Sunday, a large crowd was present to enjoy the Club facilities, entertainment and witness the drawing of our 53rd Car Competition raffle. Club President, Adam Mills welcomed all present, thanking the sponsors, the committee and ticket holders. All tickets offered were sold.

Winners were: 1st. No. 548 – Tamsin Bell and Tanya Modystack

2nd No. 139 - Kate and Jane Tesch

3rd No. 466 – Tony Andrews

4th No. 58 - Paul Westphal Most of patrol and long service awards applied for at the end of last season have arrived. A list of these are posted on the notice boards. We wish to present them at the Club Championship morning on 10th February.

Trivia answers previously should have been Chris Kennedy, Pentathlon representative. Other details correct. Member 91-92.

Last week – Kayak Aust. Reps. Adam Anderson; Daniel Ross and Anthea Warne.

This week: Who has represented Australia in Rugby Union 7’s and who has represented Australian Rugby Union Schoolboys.

Entries for NSW Regional Junior Titles Open

FOR JUNIOR surfers from Tweed Heads to Wooli, entries opened on Wednesday for the Far North Coast, NSW Regional Titles, to be held the weekend of the 18th and 19th of May, at Lennox Head. Entries are $65 and divisions for boys and girls in under 18, 16, 14, and 12 years of age. Entries will fill fast so best to get in if you are keen to compete.

Go to the Surfing NSW events page to enter or email events@surfingnsw. com.au for further information.

Competitors will be looking to qualify for the NSW Junior Titles to be held in July in the Coffs Harbour Region.

2018 was a good year of results for the Tweed Coast, with a big win to Micah Margieson in the under 18s at

the Australian Junior Titles at Victor Harbour, in South Australia this year.

Micah is now off to the World ISA Junior Titles and there were also some great results right across the board, including a 3rd place from Fingal surfer Dane Henry as well. The talent pool is thick here on the Tweed Coast, and don’t be surprised if another Australian Champion comes out of the local ranks.

The Other Pipeline Event Underway

Well the action is back in Hawaii with the Volcom Pipe Pro waiting period underway. In 2017, Soli Bailey took the event, and now Soli has qualified for the 2019 WCT tour. It is one of everyone’s favorite events on the Qualifying Series schedule. A sneak peak of the long range surf forecast for the North Shore looks like there is going to be no shortage of

options when it comes to swell. There appears to be a lengthy run of northwest energy heading for Pipe, that will favour the locals, but who else can win this one?

With 144 surfers in the draw, everyone wants a piece of Pipe, or at least the opportunity to surf out there with just a couple other guys out, but amongst all of the talent there are a few favourites, Hawaiians like last year’s winner Seth Moniz, and the ever entertaining Mason Ho are just a couple, and Pipe specialists like Kelly Slater, Western Australian Jack Robinson, Anthony Walsh and a host of other surfers will be giving it a crack. Log onto the WSL website from about 4am to watch the action.

Tweed Community Event of the Year the Charity Cup on this weekend THE CHARITY Cup has once again been awarded the Tweed Shire Community Event of the Year and organisers are looking forward to seeing a big crowd to support local families in need for the seventh annual Super Bowl Charity Cup Touch Football competition on Saturday, February 2 at Les Burger Fields, Cabarita.

The award was presented at the Tweed Shire Australia Day Awards at the Tweed Heads Civic Centre on January 26.

“We don’t do it for the awards but it’s good to be recognised,” organiser Mike Ashburn told The Weekly.

“We have a big team that work on the event and we’ve given $150,000 back to the community so the award is really for that.

“I remember when we first started it was harder to get business to donate but it’s such a good day everyone loves being a part of it now.”

Mr Ashburn said 280 players had registered for the Super Bowl themed competition which runs from 8.30am on Saturday until 5.30.

“Most the money we raise comes from the sponsors - they give money and there are over 100 business that

have donated prizes to be raffled and there is a numbers board and a silent auction as well,” he said.

“We have some key sponsors who have been with us from the start and that has just snowballed over the years.

“Without the generosity of those businesses, there wouldn’t be a Charity Cup and we wouldn’t be able to help all the families in our community that we do.

“They’re really at the heart of what we do and it’s great to have their support and to see them coming together with the community for such a good cause.”

Mr Ashburn said that spectators would find plenty of entertainment and fun on the day.

“There are raffles and auctions and things going on all day and CYS is putting on a kids’ corner with a lot of activities and a jumping castle and snow cone machine and your favourite canteen ladies will be there serving up snags and a cold beverage to cool you down.” he said.

“We have four pools of five mixed teams and then the top two from each pool go into the finals and then it’s just knockout from there.

“The quarter final starts at around 2.30 and after the grand

Organisers of the 2019 Charity Cup wearing their Super Bowl jerseys

final everyone goes back to the Cabarita Beach Bowls and Sports Club where we have a presentation from about 7pm and then we have the band, Pink Zinc, playing - it’s always a great night.”

Another organiser, Daniel “Rocket” Ross said that they were hoping

this year would be bigger and better than ever and were looking forward to plenty of support from the community.

“You wouldn’t want to to miss this one,” Mr Ross said.

“It will be bigger than Ben Hur.” Charity Cup starts at 8.30am at Les

Burger Fields, Tweed Coast Rd, Cabarita with quarter finals from around 2.30pm and entertainment all day.

The presentation kicks off at 7pm at the Cabarita Beach Bowls and Sports Club.

Casuarina Rugby Club gets funding boost ahead of 2019 season start THE CASUARINA Rugby Club recently received an important funding boost with a $30,000 Community Building Partnerships Grant.

Member for Tweed Geoff Provest visited the club to share the good news with Club President Brian Laybutt saying the grant will be used to install additional seating and a grandstand.

“With increased playing numbers and the recent introduction of 1st and 2nd grade teams, the additional seating will be well received by spectators,” Mr Laybutt said.

“The first official training night will be Tuesday January 29 and Adam Leach has taken on the position of Director of Rugby within the club

and Mick Hall will be the senior team head coach. “The club will also be forming a Golden Oldies team this year and hopefully fielding a Women’s 7’s team.

“Both the Golden Oldies and the Women’s 7’s team will play on Saturday afternoons before the 1st and 2nd grade fixtures.”

The club will also be fielding a junior boys and girls teams from U 6s through to U 17s.

“Casuarina Rugby Club is a family orientated club and always welcomes new players and supporters,” Mr Laybutt said.

For further infor mation and player registration refer to the club’s web page: info@ casuarinabeachrugby.com.au

Young sailors take to the water

Juliette Adlard Age 10 at the helm of Corsair 107 with her motley crew!

THE LAST school holidays sail at Fingal on Wednesday was the biggest yet with over 25 young sailors and the biggest number of teenagers so far. 12 boats took to the water - from classic Sabots with two small crew up to 16ft Corsairs carrying an adult and up to six kids at a time.

Everyone gets to learn how to stear and work the sails - lots of new vocab and never a moments rest as the crew have to jump around to balance the boat when the wind picks up. All agree the most fun is leaning right out as the boat flys along sending spray over everyone.

All this with only the wind to power us!

The other popular boat is the Australian made Extreme X3 - a durable plastic hull and various different sail combinations to suit the crew and the conditions. These are also used for Adult Learn to Sail - and even the experienced members enjoy taking them out when the wind gets up. The team took a break for a sausage sizzle and refreshments and continued on after lunch so the more experienced sailors could make the most of a great breeze.

We also had a few adult beginners come down for a lesson. One of our Juniors Team,

At the helm

with Bill Fenelon

Igor Prado, originally from Brazil, was a complete beginner a few months ago and after only 1 full day lesson from our chief instructor John Hayward he is now taking out any boat he can get his hands on. The club Laser being a favourite. The Laser is a singlehanded olympic class dinghy with 1 sail - difficult to sail well especially downwind but still a great boat to learn on.

You soon know when you did something wrong ... as you find yourself swimming instead of sailing, no bad thing on a hot summers day! John Hayward will be available to give 1 on 1 private lessons from the end of March - contact him directly 0431 025 497 if interested. Beginners always welcome to come and crew on race days too - email tvscmail@gmail.com for more information. Next Race at Fingal Sunday 3 Feb - midday briefing - lots of funto watch too. Do you have a Power Boat Licence?

We need Safety boat drivers for February - contact Bill 0411 123 405 if you would like to try out.
