Power Independence with Solar Batteries

Over half of all Australian homes will have batteries for energy storage in the next ten years...

The new trend in solar power is to include battery storage and generate enough power for day and night use. With energy prices rising by 17% or more on the 1st of July, the intelligent option is to vote with your feet and begin to take control of your own power production with investment in the latest solar energy revolution.

Australia is way behind the world in the development of cheap, renewable energy with the coal and gas lobby blocking any new clean energy development. This is making Australian power costs among the highest in the world, leaving household to fend for themselves using solar power to offset rising electricity costs.

24 Hour Solar Power

With Feed in Tariffs now ridiculously low, there is no point left in sharing solar power with the grid.

At 6 cents per kWh it is not equitable to export power when you have to buy your energy back later at 30 cents. Solar Power Battery Storage is the best way to beat the unfair electricity network and create energy independence today. 888 Solar Tek, a local solar company based in the Northern Rivers, is providing revolutionary new technology that slashes the cost of battery storage, providing 24 hour solar power to homes.

With custom designs based on your energy use, they maximise the benefits of your investment and deliver a cost effective solution for your power needs. They offer a free energy assessment and are delivering hybrid and off-grid power systems that are much cheaper than buying from the grid.

888

The End of Support for Solar NSW Solar Bonus Ends This Year!

Government subsidies for solar export to the grid will end this year in NSW. If you are you one of the smart people in the Northern Rivers who are benefiting from the 60 cent per kWh export you will need to make plans for the coming changes.

Payments under this plan expire at the end of 2016, leaving solar owners with 4 - 6 cents for each kWh exported after then. 20,000 homes in the Northern Rivers will have to install new meters to be able to use the power they now export entirely to the grid.

888 Solar Tek, your local hybrid and off-grid solar experts, have developed a smart migration plan, which will eliminate 80% or more of your ongoing power charges. They can install additional solar panels and battery storage now, to cover all of your daily energy use, slashing power charges.

The Truth About the

Every cent of the Solar Bonus generated by your existing system is collected right up until the end of the scheme, when both system are combined.

Your new hybrid solar system allows greater independence and typically pays for itself in 3-5 years. 888 Solar Tek tailor the new solar system around your existing equipment and provide 12 months free monitoring and support.

If you have very low electricity usage you may choose to go off the grid altogether to eliminate fixed supply charges that make up a large part of your bill. 888 Solar Tek have new technologies that can operate both on and off the grid. This makes staged transition to energy self-sufficiency cost effective and avoids costly equipment change-over.

REAL Cost of Solar Batteries...

The Gel-acid batteries were much cheaper to buy, lasted longer and could be configured in many different sizes to better match each home's energy use. They do not explode if over charged like Lithium Ion, are compatible with all inverter and charger systems and have a welldeveloped re-cycling program. Gel-acid batteries have been tried and tested over decades and, with fifth generation desulphation technology, are the lowest cost and best value battery available.

Many new battery technologies have leapt into the solar arena and early adaptors have had mixed reports about the real value of their performance.

Not all that glitters is gold and some of the best PR campaigns have hidden the real cost of new solar batteries.

The real test for new battery technologies is measured by their ability to deliver a cost per stored kWh below grid price. Every battery has a life span in the number of cycles of charge and discharge they can achieve before they lose capacity, with 60% being the standard for end of life. The cost of batteries divided by the cycle life gives the best measure of their value.

888 Solar Tek is the leading supplier of Gel acid batteries and hybrid and off-grid solar systems in the Northern Rivers and one of the few solar companies that offer custom battery sizing based on your power use. They retro-fit batteries to existing systems and provide cost benefit analysis based on your current and projected power costs. With local, personalised service and an ethos to always look after their customers' needs first, 888 Solar Tek are the number one choice for solar battery systems in the Northern Rivers.

Other than the special feeling you get from being the first boy with the new toy, all of the Lithium Ion batteries on offer fail to satisfy, none of them delivering stored energy for less than the cost of buying it direct from the grid. Some like the BYD Mini, featured in recent TV ads on the North Coast, cost over twice as much as buying power from the grid!

Why pay for electricity when it is cheaper to make your own?

888 Solar Tek is the top-selling retailer for solar battery systems in the Northern Rivers. We supply customised new or retrofit systems to match your power use - not a one size fits all package. You get personalised service with free 12 month system monitoring.

The electricity grid is a huge monopoly that serves the large generators and retailers. Selling your solar power for 6¢ per kWh or less is unfair! Beat the network by generating and storing all of your own power now. Call us for free, honest advice before you buy anywhere else.

NSW Solar bonus scheme ends this year!

The Sanden EcoÂŽ Hot Water Heat Pump System use up to 78% less energy than conventional electric water heaters. Quicker and easier to install than solar, you get the savings right away. Sanden is the most efficient and eco-friendly hot water heat pump system on the market, offering up to 50% faster heat recovery than its competitors.

Call us for all your Solar Hot Water needs on 02 6688 4480.

Only Motoma Gel-acid batteries with an Australian invented de-sulphation device which increases their lifespan by years, deliver a storage cost well below the grid price.

You may not of noticed yet, but your power bill just went up by over 17% on the 1st of July. We all know we are getting ripped off by the electricity networks and that it will only get worse. As the rage grows, many people are seriously looking at getting batteries for their solar systems to be more independent from the bloodsucking grid now.

During Minister Marshall’s visit Destination Tweed CEO Bill Tatchell put together an urgent proposal to promote the Tweed Shire with a request for funding.

“We’ve asked for $150,000 to help promote the Tweed Shire and are hopeful that we receive positive news from Minister Marshall,” Mr Tatchell said.

Mr Tatchell said he wanted to emphasise the time sensitive nature of the funding, which after two months since the natural disaster needed support to bounce back.

“Businesses are struggling to come back and we’ve been pushing hard to continue to gain the funding to build a marketing platform, that can invite operators in,” he said.

“We don’t want a big single campaign, we want to build areas that we can reuse to promote the Tweed and in particular build those platforms prior to the Commonwealth Games.”

The Weekly phoned Minister Marshall’s office and spoke with a media spokesperson to request whether the funding proposal was likely to be approved or not.

The spokesperson confirmed the proposal had been received but declined to comment further on whether the Minister would approve the tourism funding.

“We are in no position to make an announcement on the funding request,” she said.

When asked how long it could take to reach a position on the request, the media spokesperson said: “something in the next month”.

Criticism and praise has also been expressed towards Tweed Shire Council with several businesses stating it had taken too long to open Mt Warning Road, but understood the constraints on machinery.

Many locals did praise the Council roadwork crews and Tweed Shire Council for its continued efforts to open Mt Warning Road, with some renewed calls to improve access.

Motorists are still advised to watch for traffic controllers on Mt Warning Road and other Tweed roads as flood repair works continue.

In particular, they are urged to take extra caution even after light rain as many roadside areas are still saturated and prone to slippage and rock falls in the wet.

“The road you travel on today may not be the same road tomorrow,” Manager of Infrastructure Delivery Tim Mackney said.

“Please expect the unexpected, especially after rain.”

Council’s road network sustained considerable damage in the floods, with more than 1,500 individual road and bridge defects identified.

To date, Council staff and contractors have completed around 350 of the simpler and most urgent repairs.

Council is engaging more contractors to help continue the flood restoration works as Council staff must begin to return to Council’s normal program of construction works.

“Realistically, it will be 12 months before we have most of the damage fixed,” Mr Mackney said.

“Some more complicated or lower-priority jobs may take up to three years before they can be scheduled and completed.We ask Tweed motorists to be patient as we work through this significant list.”

Council said repairs are being prioritised based on a number of factors, including safety.

Please note that elders of the Bundjalung Nation request that visitors enjoy the region and lower tracks, but request you do not climb the mountain as it is a sacred site. However, those that decide to climb are asked to be respectful, take their rubbish with them and respect the environment.

Information from Visit NSW states that: “Wollumbin is a sacred place of great significance to the people of the Bundjalung Nation. Under Bundjalung law, only certain people can climb Wollumbin, so consider choosing to respect their heritage.”

TOURISM OPERATORS across the Tweed Shire are rejoicing at the reopening of Wollumbin National Park on Monday, May 29, after they took a huge hit to visitor numbers with figures estimated as much as 30 per cent of lost business in the past two months.

That 30 per cent equates to around 20,000 visitors to Wollumbin Mount Warning alone, from an annual visitor number of more than 100,000 annually.

Mt Warning Rainforest Park owner Mark Bourchier said his business like many around him at the foot of the mountain, had seen a dramatic drop in visitors, customers and clients.

Mr Bourchier said as an economic driver of the region, tourism played an important role in keeping locals employed and small businesses alive.

“It’s a relief to finally have the park open, especially after several false starts and some confusion from several visitors,” he said.

Mr Bourchier also emphasised the need to promote the Tweed Shire for the amazing natural beauty as the time nears for the Commonwealth Games.

But a visit from NSW Tourism Minister Adam Marshall to announce the reopening of Wollumbin National Park on Monday, May 29, provided renewed hope after being closed for the past two months due to the Tweed flood. ecOasis Resort owner Karissa Ball said her luxury hinterland chalets at Smiths Creek had experienced a 50 per cent drop in business during the past two months.

Mrs Ball said she was pleased with the announcement of Wollumbin Mt Warning reopening and hopes it brings tourists back to the shire.

“Witnessing the unique beauty of the Tweed Valley is something everyone should experience in their lives and we’re hoping the reopening will correspond with a broad marketing campaign to say we’re open,” she said.

Mount Warning Tours owner operator Michael Simmons said the reopening of Wollumbin National park provides visitors with an amazing range of natural experiences.

Mr Simmons also heads up the Tweed Experiences Network (TEN) which combines tourism operators across the shire with the opportunity to experience ancient subtropical rainforest, listen to the voices of the forest on the Lyrebird walk, picnics by the creek, and of course views to the sacred summit of Wollumbin.

“The reopening of Wollumbin Mt Warning National Park will help to change the perception that the Tweed Valley still remains closed to visitors after the Tweed floods,” he said.

“Tweed Experiences Network members have worked collectively to assist other members to bounce back from the flood.

“This coming together of TEN operators to rebuild, advocate and promote each other has been very important for many members to get back on their feet.”

He said Mount Warning Tours was still bouncing back from the physical damage to, and loss of vehicles and equipment during the floods.

“But we are operating and our unique cruises and tours are proving as popular as always to those that are experiencing them now,” he said.

Mr Simmons said Tweed tourism needs effective leadership for these hopes to be realised.

“Tweed Experiences Network operators are working together with other stakeholders to address the challenges that Tweed tourism needs to overcome before “hopes” becomes reality.

“Our hopes for Tweed tourism are underpinned by Mount Warning Tour’s strategy of working together with other Tweed visitor experience operators. We look forward to the day that we will work with local Indigenous guides for example to provide culturally appropriate tours and experiences of our beautiful valley and beyond.”

4 Letters to the Editor Thursday June 1 - 2017 Let’s all work together on making Australia more lovable before starting to demand that everyone, migrant and native, young and old, does so, on pain of expulsion.

Give migrants a chance

G.J.May (Weekly 4/5/17) is confused. As are all his or her “love it or leave it” compatriots.

All migrants and indeed all Australian citizens, native-born and otherwise, must put loyalty to Australia before loyalty to any other country. But don’t expect instant love.

Give native-born children and migrant/settlers time to learn to love the country before demanding that they leave if they don’t.

Such love does not mean putting loyalty to country before all other loyalties (to partner, family, religion, humanity at large). It is part of the Australian tradition (and that of most other western liberal democracies) to allow people to put their conscience before all else.

That may sometimes mean not putting your loyalty to your country first, eg in conscientious objection to combatant military service in wartime.

Some people submit their conscience to their pastor, priest, rabbi, imam or elder, others have succeeded in liberating themselves, still others are still working on it.

In Australia we are fortunate to enjoy freedom of religion and that includes freedom from religion. No one religion is prescribed anymore, as the State religion. Some people now want to proscribe (forbid) some religions, thus turning the clock back to earlier times. Some people want to proscribe all religion, thereby hoping to turn the clock forward.

This is a separate debate from the one about loyalty to country.

Let’s keep any demands for declarations of commitment and accompanying displays of loyalty, as G.J. May wishes to impose (presumably on all of us, not just on migrants) to matters of law – Australian law, as we used to do at school assembly every Monday morning in the old days.

Love of country is not an indispensable condition of being a law-abiding citizen, but it sure helps.

Councillor Allsop, we are once again disappointed that you have chosen not to support the banning of single use plastic bags in the Tweed Shire.

Your election promises and platform to protect the environment and support ecotourism has turned out to be a farcical distortion of the truth. It is unfortunate that you have chosen a path of misrepresentation and especially disappointing for the people who voted for you in expectation of commitment to your election promises. Councillor, how difficult is it for you to be honest to yourself, the people of the Tweed and our fragile environment?

We now put it to any other Councillor to support the banning of single use plastic bags in the Tweed Shire by way of a Council motion. We hope that Allsop and his ‘development at any cost’ faction will do some research on the gravity of this global issue and surprise us all by voting in favor of banning single use plastic bags and protecting the environment.

Andrew Bennett, CFSM Group, Murwillumbah

Council should support plastic bag ban

Byron Shire Council’s website acknowledges the environmental harm caused by plastic bags, congratulates businesses for saying no to them, points to www. noplasticbags.org.au as a good source of information, and urges everyone to join the campaign.

A similar statement does not appear on Tweed Council’s website, but it would be heartening to see Tweed join with Byron in supporting elimination of plastic bags. Even better would be for both councils to implore the NSW government to legislate a ban on single-use plastic bags.

Perhaps Cr Pryce Allsop in Tweed, who made election promises to protect the environment, could get the ball rolling with a motion to make the request of the State Government.

Recreational space article raises more questions

“Changes to recreational space document angers actions group”, TVW 18/5/17.

I attended the meeting referred to in this article as a representative from the JEBH Group also present was the President of the Tweed Ratepayers Association.

Tracey Stinson tells us, the original document (produced in 14/15) was a draft and had not yet been adopted

by Council. Why not I ask? Why would the draft document that was produced following an extensive internal review as well as extensive public consultation sit idle for two years in Council?

We are now told the original draft document is available to anyone who is interested, yet it was promptly removed from Councils website the day after the March Council meeting. Who authorised its removal? The original document is a great one. Council should have been proud of it. It set out to preserve the natural environment of our public parks and waterways and to protect them from being annexed off to public by commercial ventures.

I find it odd that Tracey Stinson is Councils spokesperson on this matter and yet at the hosted meeting Tracey hardly said a word. One memorable comment was, “I wasn’t here then” when the timeframe for the original document was being discussed yet her statements in this article make it seem that she was present from the start. Tracey goes on to say that over time staff tested the draft policy (and yet both Troy Green and Stewart Bawley denied any knowledge of the original document at the hosted meeting).

Stranger still is there was and Executive Management Team Meeting on February, 15 2017, (both Troy Green and Tracey Stinson along with others are members of this team). The reworded draft policy was on this meetings agenda. Oddly this reworded document was based on the original draft with wording changed to suit Councils current agenda to commercialise sections of our public open space in particular the Jack Evans Boat Harbour.

Obviously, someone in Council ( s e n i o r m a n ag e m e n t ? ) g ave instructions for the original draft to be used as the foundation for the rewritten policy, who was that person? And yet there are senior management staff that knew nothing about the original draft policy?

Really…… This article raises more questions than it answers.

How much warning do they need?

They then sent everyone home for a half day holiday while the floodwaters rose. (At least Nero sat and watched Rome burn!)

Surely someone must take responsibility - the Depot Manager, the Plant and Equipment Manager and ultimately the General Manager!

Our elected people: Federal, State and Local congratulated Council on their clean-up efforts. With no trucks or utes? No! Congratulations should go to the hired trucks and operators, all added to ratepayers, plus the replacement vehicles.

Next month, Council will want to raise rates above the CPI again (as it has for the last 20 years), citing “extraordinary circumstances”.

Hey Council, stop cutting down our trees

Is the Tweed Shire against foreign trees as they tend to be cutting down all imported species which have been here longer than them.

I see this as an insult to our visitors from all over the world on whom we try to encourage to get the tourist dollar, shame on the shire.

Not impressed with flood forum

The water levels have long dropped, the stench of mud a memory and the majority of people’s belongings that sat piled high are in landfill but the forum in Murwillumbah on Saturday highlighted that two months on the floods impact is still haunting many.

Businesses are struggling to return to some form of normality, community members affected are developing illnesses and stress directly as a result of the flood trauma.

Yet for many in the crowd on Saturday it was like deja vu, we have heard it all before and nothing changes.

Tweed Shire Council officials pats themselves on the back, SES

exposes cracks in its administration, no sign of Thomas George the local MP, dysfunctional media input from outside the local area, and nothing official from the Bureau of Meteorology.

The time has come for the NSW Premier Berejiklian and her government to launch an inquiry into the flood and the response and preparedness by Tweed Council, SES, Police and Emergency Services, the Bureau of Meteorology and media outlets.

No more cover ups and no more lies. We have to get this right because next time luck might not be on our side.

Paul Taylor, Murwillumbah

Please save our boardwalk

M e m b e r s o f t h e S ave O u r Boardwalk Group attended a council meeting at Tweed Heads on the 18 May 2017, when the following recommendation was made: 1. Notes that a Grant Application was submitted to the State Government on 16 May 2017 for $685,000 to replace the Anchorage Island Boardwalk and associated foundations with proposed installation of composite fibre superstructure ensuring longevity of the boardwalk; In the event that this grant application is A. Unsuccessful by 15 September 2017 then Council: 1. Identifies and allocates $30,000 to repair the superstructure of the Anchorage Island Boardwalk, and reopens the facility.

2. Notes the condition and design deficiency of the existing piles.

3 . I m p l e m e n t s a p rog r a m of ongoing monitoring and maintenance of the boardwalk to ensure ongoing public safety.

4. Establishes a reserve to fund removal of the existing facility and replace it, if it is intended that a facility should be maintained in this location for anything in excess of five years.

B. Successful then Council: Establishes a reserve to fund maintenance of the structure in perpetuity. The Save Our Boardwalk Group requests that council also seeks additional support from Tweed MP Geoff Provest to advocate his approval of Council’s Grant Application for $685,000. If approved, the grant would allow replacement of the Boardwalk; a maintenance reserve fund and improvements to its entry through the Keith Curran Park Reserve at Anchorage Island.

Harper funds taken

Council to respond to Halcyon House complaints COUNCILLORS WILL consider enforcing penalties against the multi-award winning hotel Halcyon House at Cabarita after the business has received several complaints from local residents since opening in 2015.

The complaints include hours of operation, noise complaints, car parking, the location of rubbish bins and compliance with development consent.

Halycon House’s development approval allows for the site, including the restaurant Paper Daisy, to be used by guests and staff of the motel only and “not by members of the public with the exception of ancillary functions and events consistent with the use of the premises as a Motel and linked to guests residing on site”.

Council officers wrote in the Planning Committee Agenda that the site and location of the hotel is not suitable for a general purpose restaurant and its use should be confined.

They also said their assessment of car parking at the site was made on the basis that members of the general public would not be using the hotel’s facilities.

According to Council documentation the issue is whether the restaurant should be confined to use by hotel guests other than for ancillary general public use.

The restaurant is currently open for all customers, seven days per week for breakfast from 7am to 11am, lunch from 12pm to 3pm and dinner from 6pm to 10pm.

Council officers have recommended that General Manager Troy Green advises Halcyon House in writing the following, “It is their choice if they wish to attempt to remedy the terms of the consent via lodgement of a Section 96 amended application.

“Council’s position is that enabling the motel restaurant to operate for unconstrained general public use would not be substantially the same development as approved and a fresh development application would be required and it is their choice if they wish to remedy the operating terms of the motel.

“Council does not support intensification of the motel use (accommodation, restaurant and ancillary components) that results in increased demand for on street car parking and/or has the potential to adversely the affect the amenity of the neighbourhood such as from noise and traffic.

“Council requires the motel (accommodation, restaurant and ancillary components) to operate in accordance with the development consent as it stands, and any unauthorised use is to cease immediately.”

It is also recommended that a warning letter is issued to the owners of Halcyon House and Paper Daisy which states that any further breaches of the hours of use or noise limits will result in fines or civil enforcement.

Other options for councillors to consider include inviting the owners to lodge a fresh development application to remedy the terms of operation, issue no warning letter or issue a Penalty infringement Notice for the hours of operation breach.

THE ORGANISER of a local GoFundMe account has made an apology via a social media post revealing she made a “massive mistake” after she took funds for her own use.

Shelley Kerr set up a GoFundMe website titled “Hope for Harper” which had raised a total of $9,415 earlier this year.

However, the Loadsman family of young Harper recently discovered several withdrawals from the funds which were allegedly linked to Ms Kerr.

Harper was born with Alagille Syndrome, a multi-system disease which affects the intrahepatic ducts of the liver, the spleen, the eyes, heart and spine.

Little Harper is also unexpectedly fighting the effects of an extrahepatic liver disease, Biliary Atresia.

Both conditions are rare and together they are almost unheard of which means little Harper requires a liver transplant at the earliest possibility.

With a family of seven now having to move to Brisbane to be near Lady Cilento Children’s Hospital for nothing less than a minimum of three months post-transplant, they needed to raise as much funds as possible to ensure that Harper’s family could stay together.

The community was quick to support the Loadsman family with several fundraisers taking place across the shire and in conjunction with a GoFundMe account setup by Ms Kerr.

The following is Ms Kerr’s post to social media on Monday, May 29.

“With what has happened with the GoFundMe for Hope for Harper, (I) want to deeply apologise for the team Bridie, Sammi and especially Jana and Shane Loadsman and everyone else that this has (been) affected by my actions which was a massive mistake,” Ms Kerr wrote on her Facebook page.

“There was no discussion with Jana of receiving 15 per cent.

We all worked hard as a team and I let them down and will work hard to recover the funds and their forgiveness.

“I will also work hard with not making mistakes and hurting the ones I love. Because of my actions it has been crushing me inside and I feel so much guilt. I am sorry.”

It was unknown how much of the “Hope for Harper” funds were misused, although the Loadsman family were believed to have received around $4,000 of the more than $9,000.

Budget talk focuses on business breaks TWEED SHIRE Councillor James Owen received wide ranging praise for hosting a Federal Budget breakfast meeting at the Tweed Heads Bowls Club on Tuesday, May 30, with guest speaker, Minister for International Development and the Pacific, Senator Concetta Fierravanti-Wells.

Mrs Fierravanti-Wells said she had recently been appointed deputy senator for Richmond and emphasised her knowledge of the region, after she travelled up from her home town of Wollongong.

She spoke highly of the Tweed Shire and emphasised the devastating impact of the Tweed floods and need for ongoing support.

“I am very pleased that the Category C funding grants were extended to more communities across the Tweed Shire recently,” she said.

Mrs Fierravanti-Wells said she believes the 2017/18 Federal Government Budget will meet taxpayer’s expectations and work towards “reversing fiscal mismanagement”, which she said was left behind by the former Labor Government.

“The focus of this budget is on fairness, opportunity and careful financial management,” she said.

She also took a swipe at Labor Federal Member for Richmond Justine Elliot, who she said was there during “Labor’s decision making”.

“Current Richmond MP Justine Elliot was there for every bad decision that Labor made that our children or grandchildren pay for,” she said.

“That she and her party have been responsible for many years. We don’t want to leave a debt for the next generation.

“We owe it to the people of Australia and we need to do this. After the defence of Australia the next priority is the budget.”

Mrs Fierravanti-Wells said she believes small business remains the engine room of Australia’s economy.

“Under the budget, tax cuts to small business to 27.5 per cent is the lowest in 25 years,” she said.

“We have to remain internationally competitive and that cannot be done on the current tax rates.

“We want to cut red tape and provide an additional $300 million to overcome the biggest challenges facing small business growth.

“We’re also looking at supporting small business in other ways including through tighter restriction on foreign workers giving priority to Australian workers.

“Foreigners shot right up under Labor’s 457 visa structure and we believe Australians should be given priority.”

Mrs Fierravanti-Wells also touched on affordable health care, job growth and the aged care sector.

“Medicare is a key pillar of our health system,” she said.

“And we want to establish a fund to continue Medicare despite the opposition’s “mediscare campaign”.

“The National Disability Insurance Scheme is also vital, but there’s no point making the commitment like Labor did without the funding.”

She said the budget also highlighted the Gonski education model investment on needs-based funding.

The meeting concluded with several questions including from local businesses, students and Business Chamber leaders.

YOUR THOUGHTS: Do you believe the Coalition Government has made the right choices in its latest budget?

Send your thoughts or letters to editor@theweekly.net.au

“Budget for millionaires and multinationals,” says Justine MP MEMBER FOR Richmond Justine Elliot has labelled the coalition budget as “unfair” and says it will deliver tax handouts for multinationals and millionaires while “hurting every family on the North Coast”.

“Prime Minister Malcolm Turnbull and the Nationals have delivered a tax cut for millionaires and a tax hike for every working Australian,” she said.

“The only people who will see better days from this Budget are big business and the well-off.”

Mrs Elliot highlighted that someone on a million dollars per year will pay $16,400 less tax this year, while someone earning $65,000 will pay $325 more tax in two years’ time.

“This Budget fails the jobs test – unemployment is going up,” she said.

“It fails the Medicare test - the Government has delayed reversing its unfair cuts to Medicare for three years.

“It fails the fairness test - Australians just can’t trust Malcolm Turnbull to deliver a fair budget.”

Mrs Elliot said Prime Minister Turnbull had the chance to fix the “unfairness of the last four years. Instead, his Government has chosen to: • Gross debt will now pass half a trillion dollars in coming months, a total of $20,000 for each Australian man, woman and child; • The deficit is ten times bigger for the coming year than was predicted in the Liberal’s first Budget; • Growth is down, employment is down, wages growth is down and unemployment is up.

The Budget keeps unfair ‘zombie measures’ and inflicts new hidden nasties such as: • Keeping the age pension age at 70 - the highest in the developed world • New cuts to family payments • New cuts to veterans’ health • The abolition of the energy supplement, which will leave pensioners up to $366 a year worse off.

“While the Government has finally removed some other unfair zombie measures from the Budget, everyone knows it will bring back these savage cuts as soon as they get the chance,” she said.

“Budgets are about choices, and Malcolm Turnbull has made his choices.

“He has chosen big business over middle and working class families. He has chosen multinationals over Medicare. He has chosen big business over battlers.”

This year’s flood event has highlighted the importance of adequate flood mitigation and a well-engineered and properly maintained floodplain drainage system.

Effective drainage of the Tweed Shire’s floodplains is essential to all agriculture and residents who occupy flood prone areas.

Damage to the sugar industry’s road infrastructure has been severe and extensive repairs are currently being undertaken by contractors who are busy trying to complete works before harvest begins.

THE CONDONG Mill suffered an estimated $4 million in damages after historic flood levels inundated the mill with a metre of water flowing through the factory.

Fortunately, the mill was covered by insurance with the crushing season just around the corner.

The Weekly spoke with Sunshine Sugar Communications Manager Vivien Miller who said the flood waters across the Tweed Valley reached levels that were 700mm higher than in 1954.

“This caused significant inundation of farms, residential and industrial areas including the Condong Mill,” she said.

“Approximately one metre of water went through the factory, covering motors, pumps, valves, instrument and electrical boards.

“Items affected by water in the store, workshops and labs were lifted to a level that had survived the 1954 flood.

“Damage was also caused to fences and buildings and a thick layer of mud deposited across the site. Our cane pads and road network were also heavily impacted.

“We estimate that over $4 million worth of damage has been incurred. Fortunately, we are covered by insurance.”

Mrs Miller said the mill’s insurers were very positive in their approach and the mill will be ready for the crushing season to commence on June 18.

“Many growers were also caught by the record height of the flood and despite their efforts, many sheds were flooded, damaging plant and equipment,” she said.

“The crop is estimated to have suffered around a 10 per cent loss, with significant debris and sediment deposited on the cane which will present its own challenges as harvest commences.”

THE WAIT is over for Wintersun 2.0 with Murwillumbah and the Murwillumbah Showgrounds expected to come to life with amazing cars as well as fun for the whole family this weekend.

The Weekly caught up with Wintersun 2.0 organisers Steve and John Bowman to find out more about the event.

1. Firstly, could you please tell readers how the Wintersun event started and where it’s heading today?

Wintersun 2.0 is the culmination of ideas that many car, motorcycle and music enthusiasts have had for quite some time. An event run by enthusiasts for enthusiasts (and also a spectacle for the public) that is enjoyable and includes all the aspects of the scene. Included will be the opportunity for entrants to drive/ride and enjoy there vehicles during the event, pin-ups and vintage clothing competition, art and Kulture display, trade stands and some great food.

The name harks back to the old Wintersun festival in Coolangatta which had a great friendly and laid back atmosphere. There will be many differences between the old event and Wintersun 2.0 but that atmosphere is something we will strive to create.

This 2017 event is a proof of concept. As we move through the next few years we hope (with Council cooperation) to involve more of the Murwillumbah and surrounding community in a wide variety of new events but all within the same theme. The tweed is a beautiful area and everyone we’ve dealt with has been friendly and very supportive. I can see a long and prosperous future for the event and the area.

We hope indefinitely. Dates for the first event are June 2 to June 5 and future events will be around the same time of year.

3. What are you hopes for the event now and into the future?

Great weather and a good crowd. More diversity and the expansion of the event into the streets Murwillumbah to enhance the economic benefit the the local traders.

4. What sort of cars and entertainment can people expect?

All cars are welcome up to the 1978 cutoff. Later model classics are by invitation. We are expecting a large turn out of Hot Rods, Classics, Customs and Muscle cars and also classic and modified motorcycles such as Cafe Racers, Bobbers and Classic Choppers. Music will by a mix of Rockabilly, Blues, Country and Rock and Roll 5. For motoring enthusiasts, how can they get involved?

If they have a pre 1978 vehicle bring it along. Entry forms will be available in the next couple of weeks via the web site and Facebook. This is a friendly family event so any car/bike enthusiasts don’t currently own a classic vehicle are welcome to come along as spectators. Maybe they’ll get fired up to buy a classic and become a new entrant and part of the Wintersun 2.0 family for 2018

contributed to the growth and development of so many young Australians.”

Mrs O’Keefe said teachers continue to be the pillar of every community and in a changing world the reliance on teachers is increasing.

“Teaching has become central to the development of young children today as the stresses and strains of modern society takes its toll on family lives,” she said.

“Teaching is better resourced than it ever has been but the crowded curriculum is a huge challenge.

“The biggest challenge is being able to reach your students, help them improve and keep them happy at the same time.

Every day is different. I love the challenge. It does help to maintain a sense of humour.”

As well as loving her career, Mrs O’Keefe has also travelled.

“Teaching has been a great career. Through the Department of School Education I have taught on exchange in Colorado USA, Ontario Canada and Perth,” she said.

“I have enjoyed the company of hundreds of students and made many fine friendships. It does not seem so long ago I got my first class. I would recommend teaching to anyone who feels they are up to doing something that will make a difference.”

STUDENTS FROM Murwillumbah East Primary School celebrated three special teachers during the school’s assembly on Friday, May 26.

Three teachers celebrated decades of dedication with Helen O’Keefe celebrating 40 years of teaching, Patricia O’Laughlin celebrating 30 years and Vanessa Chaffey celebrating 20 years.

All three ladies are committed teachers at Murwillumbah East and joined in a celebration with a large cake for the whole school.

Reflecting on the past 40 years of dedication to teaching, Mrs O’Keefe told The Weekly that she loves her role and the daily challenges she faces.

“I grew up with five siblings on my grandfather’s farm at Mooball,” she said.

“I went to St Bridget’s Catholic School at Burringbar and then to secondary school at St Johns at Mullumbimby and Murwillumbah High School for my final years.

“I did my tertiary study in Lismore thanks to the Gough Whitlam free tertiary education policy.

MURWILLUMBAH EAST Primary School teacher Patricia O’Loughlin who recently celebrated two decades of teaching spoke about her achievements and career advice.

“When I was appointed to Murwillumbah East over 30 years ago the lady from the Department said I had won the lottery. She was right,” Trish, as she prefers, said.

“When I graduated, there was an over supply of primary school teachers, so I went out west to a place called Ardlethan to teach high school children. I was there as a supply casual for two years. I loved it.

“I then went and lived with my sister in Albury teaching at Murray High School for a year. I did a few more stints teaching casually until my permanent appointment to Wyalong primary school in 1989.

“I was there for four years. It was wonderful to be finally teaching primary school kids and being part of a small school community. It was quite isolated but I learnt so much in a short time. It was there I got the call to say I had a transfer to Murwillumbah East. I have been at East ever since.”

Trish said she had always wanted to be a teacher.

“I tortured my siblings for years making them play “schools” with me,” she said.

“Of course I was always the teacher. I saw some pretty ordinary teaching practices as a child but also some really lovely ones.

“I think I was motivated and determined to be one of the kind ones that hopefully kids would remember.

“I guess technology has been the biggest change to education.

It seemed one minute I was using a chalkboard and the next an interactive smart board. This was a huge challenge for me.

“I think technology is fantastic but it can never replace the human element of teaching.

“Other challenges have been the numerous changes to curriculum and general teaching practices. I’m still trying to come to terms with this frustration.

My advice to new teachers, hang in there. Try not to be overwhelmed with the amount of paperwork, meetings and other things that get in the way of your time with the kids.

If the children in your class are motivated, happy to come to school and are learning, then you are on the right track.

Vanessa Chaffey is currently away on leave this week and The Weekly will endeavour to share her story at a later date.

Debate around Kingscliff height limits intensify NSW SHADOW Minister for the North Coast Walt Secord says he is strongly behind Tweed Shire Councillor Ron Cooper’s community-based campaign to retain height limits at Kingscliff in what he says will protect the Tweed from “greedy property developers”.

Mr Secord made the comments in a speech to the NSW Parliament’s Legislative Council on Labor’s bill - Local Government Amendment (Disqualification from Civic Office) Bill 2017 to ban property developers and real estate agents from standing in the September 2017 local government elections. The bill was defeated 19 to 18.

Mr Secord said in a media statement that he supported efforts by Federal Richmond MP Justine Elliot, Tweed Shire Cr Cooper and Cr Reece Byrnes who are “opposing moves by the Liberals and Nationals to remove the height limits at Kingscliff”.

Mr Secord slammed Tweed Shire Councillor James Owen for his recent comments in support of increasing height limits in certain areas.

Cr Owen told The Weekly he was supporting what the Kingscliff community “said they would be willing to consider”.

“In early 2016 Tweed Shire Council ran community engagement sessions to find out what the community wanted to see in The Kingscliff Locality plan, a blueprint for future development in Kingscliff,” Cr Owen said.

“Part of the feedback was that, whilst the community generally wanted to maintain three storey height limits, they (the community) would be willing to accept building heights of up to 16.6 metres (five stories) in certain areas of Kingscliff, where no one was adversely affected.

“The community consultation also suggested lowering the building heights in certain areas including along the main commercial strip on Marine Parade.

“The community said they were open to considering slightly higher buildings if it meant that in exchange Council received higher Section 94 Developer Contributions.”

Cr Owen highlighted that contributions could then be used to provide community benefits and amenity outcomes including new library, sporting facilities and cycle-ways.

“I will continue to work with the Kingscliff and Tweed community to deliver more jobs, services, infrastructure and lifestyle outcomes whilst ensuing that we protect and preserve our sensitive environment,” Cr Owen said.

YOUR THOUGHTS: Do you believe the future of Kingscliff requires a height limit increase? Alternatively, do you believe heights should be maintain or reduced? Send your views to editor@theweekly.net.au or 1/12 Queen Street Murwillumbah

RETIRED ACCOUNTANT Bryan Threlfall has expressed concerns around proposed rate rises under Tweed Shire Council’s latest Draft Revenue Policy & Statement, which he says will wrongly target Tweed properties that have increased in value.

Mr Threlfall is referring to Page 6 of the Draft Revenue Policy & Statement which states that rates are assessed as a product of the land value supplied by the Valuer General.

The Valuation of Land Act 1916 (NSW) requires Council to assess rates on the most recent values provided by the Valuer General.

“Council cannot make and levy a rate in respect of a parcel of land, unless Council has been furnished with a valuation of that land under the Valuation of Land Act,” the document reads.

“Council does not participate in the valuation of land for rating purposes.

The Valuer General assesses all values independently and Council has the right to appeal against any land valuation furnished by the Valuer General for Tweed Shire.

“Council has received new valuations of land to be effective from July 1, 2017.”

The document states that overall rateable land valuations in the Shire has increased by approximately “18 per cent from those of 2014”.

It should be noted that the increase in valuation does not have an impact on the amount of rates Council can raise, it merely redistributes the revenue base according to valuations.

The 2016 revaluation has resulted in quite large increases in land valuations especially

along the Tweed Coast.

In summary, the report states that properties that have valuations increased by approximately 18 per cent will pay the same ordinary rates (residential, farmland, business) as last year plus the 1.5 per cent rate pegging increase.

Properties with a valuation increase greater than 18 per cent will pay more ordinary rates plus the 1.5 per cent rate pegging increase.

Properties with increases between 0 per cent and 18 per cent will pay less ordinary rates plus the 1.5 per cent rate pegging increase.

Please note that a valuation increase or decrease will not affect ratepayers who are assessed on the minimum rate.

Mr Threlfel said he believes the rate increases, which in some cases are 2.5 per cent, will discriminate between residents whose properties have jumped only up to 18 per cent as opposed to those above.

“Residents along the Tweed Coast are those acknowledged as so severely affected eg. much of Seabreeze has jumped by almost 30 per cent,” he said.

“Those up to 18 per cent are to only pay the increase in the pegging rate of 1.5 per cent.

“Those above 18 per cent will have to pay the general rate on 100 per cent.”

Therefore, if your 2017 new valuation has not increased beyond 18 per cent, then you may have no increase beyond the 1.5 per cent pegging rate.

If it is below 18 per cent you may even have a slight reduction.

Today (June 1) is the last day to have your say on Council’s Draft Revenue Policy & Statement, to make a submission email tsc@tweed.nsw.gov.au or by post.

3. Could you please address several residents’ concerns that they are being “unfairly” targeted through their rates due to their house price increasing?

Council has no control over land valuations. These are calculated and provided by the NSW Valuer General. The Local Government Act prescribes how these land valuations must be used to calculate general rates. Council’s total general rate income cannot increase by more than 1.5% due to NSW Rate Pegging requirements.

4. How will the new rate calculations make it fairer across the Shire? And, further to this, could you outline why these rates increase with updated valuations?

The underlying general assumption (not Council’s) when using land valuations to calculate general rates is that those ratepayers that have higher value properties have a higher capacity to pay rates.

Council (who would be best placed to understand how to levy rates on a fair basis for its community) has very little discretion in the formulas and land values that must be used to calculate rates. These are all set down by the State Government.

THE WEEKLY spoke with Tweed Shire Council Manager of Financial Services Michael Chorlton this week to ask several questions around rates changes as follows: 1. Could you please give readers an example of where an 18 per cent increase in valuation would affect their rates? Equally, could you please provide an example of where a house would not see a general rate rise above the 1.5 per cent (rate peg) if their property did not increase by 18 per cent (since 2014)?

Points to note: a. The final adopted rating amounts may differ slightly to the draft revenue policy due to changes in numbers of properties, rateability of properties and valuations during the display period. b. Properties that were on the minimum general rate in 2016/17 (valuations of $179,740 or lower) will have an increase of exactly 1.5% in 2017/18. c. Properties that were above the minimum general rate in 2016/17 and had a valuation change of less than a 21% increase will pay less general rates in 2017/18. d. Properties that were above the minimum general rate in 2016/17 and had a valuation change of more than a 21% increase will pay more general rates in 2017/18. e. Any ratepayer wishing to know how much their general rates will be next year can either perform the calculation themselves using their land valuation notice from the valuer general or they can contact Council and we will perform the calculation for them.

TLC Murwillumbah

Welcomes a new chiropractor Dr. Angelo King (Chiropractor)

Practice Hours : Monday - 8:00am to 12:00pm - 2:00pm to 6:00pm Tuesday – 2:00pm to 6:00pm Wednesday – 7:30 am to 11:30 am – 2:00pm to 6:00pm Thursday – 8:00am to 12:00pm Friday – 7:30 am to 11:30 am – 2:00pm to 6:00pm

Total Lifestyle Chiropractic in Murwillumbah is excited to welcome a new Chiropractor, Dr. Angelo King to the team. Dr. Angelo was born and raised in Auckland, New Zealand and attended the University of Otago achieving a bachelor’s degree in Anatomy and Structural Biology. “This is where I first fell in love with the brain and the power of the nervous system” says Dr. Angelo, leading him to pursuit a career in chiropractic.

“Many people may not fully understand that Chiropractic is about the brain and the nervous system and about how chiropractors can help those two things communicate effectively by removing interference in the spine, thereby allowing the body to function at its highest potential. It’s about much more than simply hearing the crack and pop, it’s about helping your brain stay healthy” says Dr. Angelo.

Dr. Angelo studied chiropractic at the New Zealand College of Chiropractic graduating

in 2013. Since becoming a chiropractor he has worked with many types of people from extreme athletes, to infants and babies, to the elderly. In his spare time he enjoys music, travel and having many new experiences.

He believes relocating to Murwillumbah from New Zealand is bound to be another great experience and he’s looking forward to serving the community with gentle, specific and high quality chiropractic care! If you’d like to learn more about whether Chiropractic could help you achieve your health goals, contact the Murwillumbah team today and book a complimentary spinal health check with Dr. Angelo. It’s a 10 minute assessment of your posture and spine in which he can determine if you may be a candidate for Chiropractic care. No obligations and no fuss!

The team is excited to announce that the practice is now open every day with appointment times to accomodate everyone!

Council expresses concern over private sewerage plant at Cobaki TWEED SHIRE Council has raised several concerns over a proposal to construct a private wastewater treatment plant and reticulation network to supply the massive Cobaki Lakes development.

Northern Water Solutions (NWS) which is owned and operated by the developer of Cobaki Lakes, Leda Holdings, has been engaged to establish a private water utility to service both the Cobaki and Kings Forest developments.

The proposal includes the construction of a wastewater treatment facility at the site of the former golf driving range, and the retail supply of water, recycled water and sewerage infrastructure to 5,500 homes.

An application is currently with the Independent Pricing and Regulatory Tribunal (IPART) with public submissions now closed.

If approved the proposed treatment facility and recycled water reticulation network would not require development consent, however an approval under the Environmental Planning and Assessment Act (EP&A Act) is required.

Council would also need to approve the drinking water component of the application.

According to Council documentation there are a number of issues raised by NWS’s proposal which they say requires further investigation by IPART and/or additional information from NWS. At tonight’s (June 1) Planning Committee it is recommended that Councillors endorse a 25-page submission to IPART which lists Council’s concerns.

The main issue raised by Council is in relation to the proposed irrigation of 20 hectares of public open space and sports fields using recycled water.

NWS said they would promote the use of recycled water throughout the Cobaki Estate which includes toilet flushing, cold water for washing machines, garden and lawn watering, wash down of paths and driveways, bin washing, open space irrigation, sports fields, nurseries, golf courses other industrial and commercial uses.

However Council’s documentation states there are no agreements in place for “the provision of bulk water, the discharge of excess recycled water to Council’s existing infrastructure, or irrigation of Council’s future assets.”

“It should also be noted that there is no obligation on Council to agree to any proposals for bulk water, discharge of excess recycled water or acceptance of recycled water for irrigation purposes,” Council documentation reads.

Another concern raised by Council is around the type of

sewer system proposed by NWS. NWS’s application includes a pressure system, however Council prefers a gravity sewer system and has previously made a submission to the Department of Planning Environment stating this preference.

“It is considered that these systems are unconventional in nature and will ultimately provide a lower level of service to this development,” Council’s documentation reads.

Council’s submission also raises a number of concerns relating to risks to the environment and that there has not been a sufficient assessment of environmental impacts.

Risks raised by Council include; the runoff of recycled water from irrigation and the effects this runoff would have on downstream waterways including Cobaki Creek and Cobaki Broadwater.

Another area of concern is whether the recycled water will meet NSW Health requirements to be used within the home (toilets, washing machines etc) and if there is a risk of cross contamination between drinking water and recycled water.

The Weekly reported in April this year around concerns over the proposed development and a petition from local residents against the wastewater plant.

The online petition, via gopetition.com, states “we, the undersigned don’t want a sewage plant on Lot 1 DP 874316

(the former golf driving range) on Piggabeen Rd for the development of Cobaki Lakes. We suggest to put the sewage plant amongst the development and not in between our lifestyle estates.”

Council also agrees that the wastewater facility should be located within the Cobaki Lakes development.

“The WWTP (Waste Water Treatment Plant) serves no benefit for the surrounding community, with only the Cobaki Estate being serviced by the proposal,” Council’s submission reads.

“It is considered that a more appropriate location for the WWTP is within the Cobaki Estate itself, as opposed to impacting upon the existing locality with a development that is completely out of character with the surrounding rural nature of the area.

“Alternatively, it is considered appropriate that the Cobaki Estate development be serviced by way of standard connection with Council’s infrastructure, as approved under Concept Plan Approval MP06_0316 and Council approvals for residential subdivision.”

Big effort gets Hugh his home back TWEED VALLEY Way resident Hugh (last name withheld) is confined to a wheelchair and had his home inundated by flood waters on March 31.

Hugh has unfortunately been living in the aftermath of the floods ever since.

The water rose just above his floorboards and meant he was unable to get out of bed during the event.

After the waters receded, he was left with a mammoth clean up task and had slowly worked his way through the carnage.

Fortunately, the efforts of 12 big-hearted locals spent an entire day working hard to assist Hugh and bring his house back to a home.

Help came from a range of people including local business owners Russell

and Helen who laid a lino floor and Dave, otherwise known to locals as Elvis, was also praised as being a “huge help” with lawns and maintenance.

Charles Needham also put in a big effort to help Hugh including the mamoth task of mould removal and cleaning.

Other helpers included The Motorcycle Clinic who got Hugh’s three-wheel motorcycle back up and running straight after the floods.

Hugh told The Weekly he was overwhelmed by the assistance from locals and wanted to thank everyone for their help.

“It’s been more than I could’ve imagined,” he said.

“I’m extremely thankful to everyone for their help, it’s been difficult since the floods.”

Students rally to assist flood victims THE STUDENTS, teachers, parents and carers of eight small Tweed schools held a Market Day for local flood relief for their own schools and the community on Friday, May 19.

The Principals began planning an opportunity to test the entrepreneurship of their students last year, and following the floods, decided the project could help alleviate the difficulties created, particularly in the communities of Crabbes Creek, Condong and Tumbulgum Public Schools, which were particularly flood-affected.

“We devised a program for groups of students and classes to take on a project to create a market stall,” said the Relieving Principal of Burringbar Public School, Peter Halloran.

“The students were really engaged in the project aspect, but the preparation and

operation of the stalls also needed solid work in numeracy, literacy, science, co-operation, problem-solving and critical thinking.”

Peter says the range of enterprises on display at his school on Friday, May 19 was stunning.

“We had dream-catcher makers, pancakemakers, stress-busters, homemade jam, laminated Pokemon pictures, slime-makers, fairground games, screen-printed T shirts and even a miniature farm zoo,” he said.

“Developing the students’ skills was the initial aim, but the amount raised surprised everybody, and the biggest benefit was intangible – it was a great morale boost for all those in the communities represented.

“It seems it’s one of those things small communities do best, and all the schools’ staff are hugely proud of their students’ achievement.”

Horrific head-on crash leaves one man dead A 45-YEAR-OLD man was killed when his late

model SUV collided head-on with a truck travelling along Tweed Valley Way near Tumbulgum at 7.10am this morning (Wednesday, May 31).

The accident occurred between the two Tumbulgum exits (Riverside Drive) on a curve in the road, although it was unknown at the time of print how the two vehicles collided.

Several residents had initially thought the accident occurred at the Riverside Drive intersection, however this was not the case.

The man, who was the sole occupant of the SUV, died at the scene.

The truck driver a 38-year-old, who was also travelling alone, was airlifted to Gold Coast University Hospital with serious leg injuries. Police Media said his condition was not considered to be life threatening.

Residents have since voiced their concerns with speed limits along Tweed Valley Way and there’s been renewed calls to reduce the speed to 80 from 100km per hour in a bid to prevent further accidents.

Tumbulgum resident Donna Close said reducing the speed limits was the only way to save lives.

“The Tumbulgum Community Association will continue to rally for roundabouts at each exit of the village and a reduction in speed although the Tweed Valley Way. Please help us to save lives,” she said via social media post.

Tweed resident Cindy Diehm said she was so saddened by the accident and has called for reduced speed limits.

“So, sad another motor vehicle accident has happened in our little Tumbulgum,” she said.

“I really don’t understand how these accidents keeping happening, maybe to speed of 100km should be reduce to 80km.”

Track good to go for Sunday race meet RACING IS set to make a strong return to the

Tweed River Jockey Club on Sunday, June 4, with a full book of local races and plenty of excitement building for the June racing schedule.

Track inspectors from the Northern Rivers region took a close look at the racing surface on Saturday, May 27.

They were satisfied with the level of grass coverage on the racing surface for the meeting to be conducted safely on Sunday, June 4 - weather permitting.

Stewards were satisfied with the improvement of grass on the surface following the club’s last meeting being abandoned on May, 8.

The grass coverage had become a concern on May 8, after showers overnight and early to mid-morning on the race day whereby the rain had softened the upper layer of the racing surface resulting in it being easily displaced, especially where there was limited grass cover between the 1200m and 800m marks.

This was subsequent to the circuit being submerged by floodwater for an extended period of time during the Tweed flood.

Jockey Club manager Brian Charman told The Weekly in May that the club’s staff and volunteers had put in a massive effort to restore the track and were eager to bounce back for the June racing season.

Planned upgrade for Kingscliff Hall

THE KINGSCLIFF Hall is set for a $580,000 remodel

to complement the Kingscliff foreshore revitalisation which is currently underway.

Two of the buildings on the site, the amenities block and caretaker’s residence are now redundant following the closure of the Kingscliff Holiday Park for redevelopment.

The hall was constructed in 1961 along with the amenities block and caretaker’s residence that serviced the holiday park for many years.

The buildings were constructed at a cost of £12,000 of which Council loaned to the Kingscliff Ratepayers Association.

The building was designed in the Internationalist style that was popular in the 1950s by acclaimed architect George Rae. The most striking feature of the heritage building are the floor to ceiling windows within the hall.

Council is proposing an upgrade of the amenities block to provide 24 hour bathrooms for park users and a remodel of the caretaker’s residence into a visitor information centre.

The hall will also receive an upgrade with glazed doors at the rear of the building to allow for access to the park, a new kitchen and accessible bathrooms.

Landscaping around the building is planned to integrate with the park along with pathways, benches and tree planting.

There are currently 1017 properties listed for sale across the Tweed Shire, according to realestate.com.au.

Of those properties, 124 or more than 10 per cent are listed with a price tag of more than $1 million and that’s not including properties that were listed without a price or for auction.

Of these homes, 20 are listed at a price of over $2 million.

A staggering 46 homes with a value of a million-dollars plus have sold since the beginning of the 2017.

The real estate with the biggest price tag is a $12 million listing for 50 hectares of land at Bilambil Heights in a prime development location with 180-degree ocean views.

Big sales this year have included the recently under contract Casuarina $5.2 million property “The Retreat”, which boasted one of Australia’s most exclusive private coastal estates and had been listed on the market for $6.5 million in January 2016.

The exclusive waterfront property boasts 75-metres of beach frontage and 8000sqm of land.

The unique architectural designe offers panoramic views from a rooftop terrace of the ocean, Norries Point, Mount Warning and the 72 hectares of reserve which sits between the estate and Cabarita Village.

The home also features an open plan ground floor entertaining area featuring a commercial kitchen and floor to ceiling windows which can be completely retracted to take in sea breezes and views of a private brook, waterfall and other water features.

The upper levels include a fully equipped gymnasium, eight individually styled master bedrooms, each with an oversized ensuite and a penthouse suite which spans a full floor and includes a private kitchen, bathroom and living areas.

The Retreat was marketed by Bruce Williams of Ray Real Estate, who says there is no comparison locally or nationally considering the size and caliber of the offering.

Recent big listings include Brisbane lawyer and property industry identity Peter MacGregor’s beachfront home at Casuarina Beach with a price tag of $2.1 million.

Mr MacGregor and wife Leonie built 4 Eclipse Lane on a 702sqm lot just 50 metres from the ocean and within walking distance of the new Casuarina Shopping Village and the Casuarina recreation precinct, including a pool, gymnasium and the Osteria bar and restaurant.

The two level, five bedroom, three bathroom home is being marketed by Lorna Savage Properties, with an asking price of $2.1 million.

The ground floor reflects the ‘beach resort’ ambience of the home, starting with a grand foyer entrance with a water feature. Two additional bedrooms, a family room and timber alfresco area complete the residence, which fronts a nature strip with access to kilometres of beachfront walking and cycling paths.

Mr MacGregor says it will be difficult to say goodbye to a treasured family home of 14 years.

“This has been a fantastic family home for us - a place where we made many wonderful memories and spent lots of quality time together at the beach without the distractions of work and other commitments,” he said.

“Our children have now grown up and are starting families of their own and have work commitments interstate, so it’s time for us to move on and let another family start creating memories in this beautiful home.

“One of the things I have loved most about this home is that it’s so private, yet still close to everything Casuarina has to offer. Just a few minutes’ walk in any direction will either take you to the beach, the shops, a fantastic little restaurant or parks and sporting fields.

“Casuarina is only about 90 minutes from Brisbane and just 15 minutes from Coolangatta Airport, so this property would also make a great holiday home for those looking to enjoy quick weekend breaks away from the city. It’s so accessible and once you’re here, it’s such a friendly community, you feel at home straight away.”

Prize Jersey sale a success as cows travel to New Zealand

KENARIE JERSEY Stud Farm owner Pat McDonald has celebrated 53 years of master breeding and a successful auction with around $170,000 worth of the finest Jersey cattle in the world sold to the top bidders.

The Jersey Stud Farm sale saw 44 head of dairy cows auctioned at the Tweed River Jockey Club in Tygalgah on Friday, May 26. The auctioneer was Brian Leslie from DLS. The auction attracted some of Australia’s top breeders from across the beef and dairy industries in support of Kenarie Farm and to buy from a rare gene pool that carries with it the legacy of generations of master breeders.

Mr McDonald said he was extremely happy with the auction and said some of the first dairy cows in more than 30 years to travel from Australia to New Zealand.

“It was fantastic auction and great turnout,” he said.

“We also had some buyers from New Zealand who are returning home with their Jerseys in what is the first Jersey to go to New Zealand in more than 30 years.”

Pat is a third generation farmer and has been involved in the industry all his 82 years. Pat’s story is one of passion in the dairy industry which is evident in the way he names every one of his 400 odd cows.

Kenarie featured at the Brisbane Royal Show in 2015 with a sweep of awards including being named winner of the Premium Breeder and the most successful exhibition with two individual in milk classes, Senior and Junior pen of cows, two Progeny categories, the Milk Quality award, Champion Cow and Supreme Champion Dairy Cow of all Breeds.

Pat spoke with The Weekly after the recent floods, in which he lost several head, to reflect on his time in the region as well as the big sale.

“I knew every cow by name in my father’s herd before I started school and would be at the dairy every afternoon to

help out with the chores,” he said.

“I had two favourite cows to milk “Hinkler” and “Fortune” and never wanted to be anything other than a dairy farmer.”

Pat said his father registered the stud Kendonvale in 1934, the year Pat was born.

“In my earliest years a small percentage of the herd were pure bred Jerseys and they always looked so much better than the commercial cows,” he said.

“Hence I was attracted to the registered cows at a very early age. My father started showing cattle at the local show in the 1940s and I became actively involved in 1946.

“It has been a real passion to breed and show great cattle ever since. The essence of a good cow is to have a fine flat dairy bone with strength and capacity and most importantly strength and a blend of udder attachments and correct teat placement.”

Pat registered the current stud Kenarie in 1964 and has bred many champions at the local shows of North Coast National, Murwillumbah, Mullumbimby, Casino and the Dairy Spectacular and also at special feature shows at Boonah, Ipswich, Toowoomba, Beaudesert and Redland Bay.

“We exhibited Champion Cow at the Sydney Royal Easter Show in 1978 and have been showing at the Brisbane Royal for 44 years. In that time we have won nine Champion Cow awards, three Supreme Champion Cows and four Supreme Champions Udders,” he said.

But Pat said in 2016 that he had concerns about the dairy industry and worried about equitable market share for farmers.

“The biggest concern for dairy farmers today is a lack of price for their milk. Hopefully the inquiry into the dairy farming and milk pricing may open the door for a more equitable share of the market,” he said.

“Dairy farmers today are very efficient, they just need a better price for their product to give them a better return on their enterprise and more attractive to ensure its future.”

To celebrate 53 years of breeding, Pat said he wanted to give something back to the industry.

“We have enjoyed our career as dairy farmers and stud breeders. We have met many wonderful people throughout Australasia and beyond. I have judged many shows including Sydney and Melbourne Royal, the Waikato and Strathford Centenary shows in New Zealand,” he said.

Twin Towns newest Life Members At the Twin Towns Annual General Meeting in May, members voted unanimously to endorse a resolution that saw three long term, hard-working members honoured with Life Membership.

From left, Life Member Dr John Griffin, his wife Di and Board Chairman Michael Fraser.

Membership. John is well-known and highly regarded for his devotion and commitment to Twin Towns members and the welfare of returned servicemen and women.

President of the Euchre & 500 Club Pat Lesina is now a Life Member.

Following in the footsteps of husband Nev, the well-known Twin Towns’ couple became the first husband and wife Life Members.

Pat has worked tirelessly in a voluntary capacity for many community organisations such as Meals on Wheels and the Tweed Heads & Coolangatta RSL Women’s Auxiliary. Pat is the current President of the Twin Towns Euchre & 500 Club, a busy role she has held for over 20 years.

From left, Twin Towns Salvation Army Chaplain Owen Pattison, Twin Towns Board Chairman Michael Fraser, Twin Towns Salvation Army Chaplain Pam Pattison, Twin Towns Deputy Board Chairman Brian Brown and Major Darren Elsley from the Salvation Army’s Tweed Centre.

Former Tweed Shire Council General Manager and Twin Towns Board Director since 1997, Dr John Griffin has served on many Twin Towns’ committees, including Risk, Compliance, and New Projects.

He currently serves on various other Boards including the Northern NSW Local Health District Board and the Westpac Rescue Helicopter Board.

Dr Griffin, a retired Naval Officer, is also the hard-working Secretary of the Tweed Heads & Coolangatta RSL Sub-Branch.

Twin Towns’ donation boosts Salvos flood relief work Life member Pat Lesina (right) with husband Nev.

Board Chairman Michael Fraser said all three recipients of Life Membership in 2017 have gone ‘above and beyond’ for their fellow club members and the local community.

“Dr John Griffin, John Connolly and Pat Lesina have each made an immense contribution over the past 20 years.

Board Chairman Michael Fraser congratulates John Connolly.

Former Board Director for 20 years and tireless Twin Towns and Tweed Heads & Coolangatta RSL Sub-Branch volunteer, John Connolly, was also awarded Life

“They dedicate countless hours of their time, week in, week out, to Twin Towns, its members, its sporting and social clubs and the local community.

“On behalf of the Twin Towns Board of Directors, I congratulate them on their Life Membership and thank them for all they have achieved, and no doubt will continue to achieve, in the years to come,” said Mr Fraser.

In the aftermath of the Cyclone Debbie floods that devastated many homes and properties in Murwillumbah and surrounding communities in late March and early April, the tireless relief work by the Salvation Army continues in earnest.

Major Darren Elsley from the Salvation Army’s Tweed Centre said the recent Twin Towns’ ClubGRANTS donation of $50,000 has significantly increased their ability to assist families in the hardest-hit areas in the Tweed and Northern Rivers regions.

Chair of the Twin Towns Donations Committee and Deputy Chair of Twin Towns, Brian Brown, said the Twin Towns Board of Directors and ClubGRANTS Committee chose to donate the money to the Salvation Army as they were aware of the tireless flood relief work being

carried out locally by their team.

“We knew they could direct the funds to assist when and where it was needed most.

“Despite the recent closure of the two Flood Recovery Centres at Murwillumbah and Lismore, the Salvation Army continues to provide emotional and financial support to those living in the affected communities to help them cope, rebuild and recover,” said Mr Brown.

Major Elsley said the Salvation Army needed to bring additional personnel from Sydney to deal with the scale of the disaster.

“Without the support of Twin Towns, we wouldn’t have been able to help so many people in the local community, some of whom are still in dire need of assistance,” said Major Elsley.

“Some are only just starting to return to their homes and many hardesthit by the floods had no insurance.

Some did, but are still waiting for compensation, which in many cases may be a lengthy process.

“Initially, we door-knocked throughout the back blocks of Burringbah, Crabbes Creek and other remote communities affected by the floods to ask ‘Hey, are you okay, is there anything we can do?

“Some of those we met were genuine Aussie battlers. They thought there were others worse off than them or felt embarrassed to ask for help.

“We were able to assess their needs and transfer up to a maximum of $1,500 to their accounts, which goes a long way Continued on page 3

CLUBNEWS www.twintowns.com.au BOARD CHAIRMAN’S REPORT Our 60th Annual General Meeting 16 May 2017 At 7 pm on 16 May, dedicated members came out in numbers, 154 to be exact, to support Twin Towns Annual General Meeting in the Showroom.

Great to see such interest shown in your club by members to approve the 2016 end of year Board Report and Financial Report, including a number of ordinary resolutions in accordance with the Registered Clubs Act. The Board’s recommendation to members to declare land on Darlington Drive jutting into the golf course “Non-Core” to allow the board to manage the property was also approved by members, as well as another property in Recreation Street Tweed Heads, next to an existing lot the Club has owned for many years.

“Core property”, such as licensed areas, may not be sold or leased (for more than 10 years) without member approval and other statutory requirements, whereas “Non-Core” property allows the board to determine usage.

The cost of calling an unscheduled Extraordinary General Meeting to seek member approval is approximately $35K so to ensure this is not a barrier to normal commercial practices, the Act allows for this approval to be granted by members in advance, even if there is no intention of dealing with the land at this time.

Constitution that needed a 75% majority approval of members present.

From where I sat, the approval seemed unanimous and I certainly thank members for approving this most important document.

If you haven’t managed to read up on the New Twin Towns Constitution, please look it up on your members’ portal on the Twin Towns website by following a number of simple steps or contact the Company Secretary for a copy.

Congratulations must be awarded to our three new Life Members recommended by the Board and approved by members.

Each has provided over 20 years of magnificent service to Twin Towns’ members and the community alike.

Twin Towns has always received unheralded, dedicated volunteers over the past 60 years who have contributed so much of their time to generate social and sporting camaraderie, to encourage membership and ultimately welcome newcomers.

John Connolly, a past Director; John Griffin, a serving Director; and Patricia Lesina, Euchre Club President, have not only dedicated so much of their time to members but have also contributed much more to the local community.

Part of the Strategic Plan the board adopted is to look for future opportunities and land bank as part of that purpose.

Neville and Patricia Lesina now represent the Clubs’ very first husband and wife Life Members.

Congratulations on being awarded Life Membership to all three of these outstanding, hard-working members.

Another most important special resolution moved by the Board of Management and supported by members was the repeal of the old Constitution and its replacement with a totally new

Following the Annual General Meeting, members enjoyed some well-earned hospitality in the way of a magnificent array of food, delicious cakes and refreshments to wrap up a great evening.

Due to production timetables with Club News, the ANZAC Day celebration has probably not received the true recognition this day, 25 April 2017, deserved.

The Dawn Service was a fantastic tribute in recognition of all Australian Ex-service personnel and Service personnel who served or are still serving across the globe, whether defending our nation in war or on peacekeeping duties around the globe.

The Main Service was just as moving allowing time for all in attendance to reflect on the true meaning of ANZAC Day. An estimated attendance of approximately 7,000 turned out for both of these services of remembrance which certainly keeps alive that traditional ANZAC Spirit of namely Courage, Mateship, Endurance and Sacrifice.

It’s extremely important that we recognise and congratulate Twin Towns Services Club’s Tweed Heads & Coolangatta RSL SubBranch, under the leadership of President Joe Russell and his extremely dedicated committee.

They carry out an enormous amount of work in our community, providing many commemorative services of remembrance for ANZAC Day, Armistice Day and other special services. Visitation by the local community at these services is growing annually, recognising the gallant commitment our servicemen and servicewomen have made on many international fronts over many years.

Our Sub-Branch professionally organise amazing services to make sure we never forget our forebears’ sacrifice for our freedom. People like myself whose parents served their country during the war attend these services of remembrance to reflect and admire their history with pride, after which we consider the day a remarkable tribute to those who fought for and defended our freedom. Then we move on, perhaps without considering the huge amount of work involved in a successful Remembrance Service.

This

community

growth

in

attendance at services is all due to the remarkable organisation and dedication of our Sub-Branch.

Our local Tweed community along with family, friends and especially children and grandchildren of our veterans, along with many other visitors, attend these remembrance services. Perhaps they don’t realise that behind the scenes, our Sub-Branch involve Twin Towns Clubs and Resort, (IT and Light and Sound), Tweed Shire Council, Police, Local, State and Federal Government, volunteer attendants, the many vehicles required, musicians/bands, choirs and many of our schools. All are coordinated over a twelve-month period by our dedicated SubBranch committees.

The other most important part of Sub-Branch activities is their probably little-known community welfare work, along with their passion and commitment shown whilst carrying out this role.

A high degree of education and qualification is required to assist many a veteran, widow, family and children who for one reason or another need specialist assistance whether spiritual, medical or financial, to overcome adversity or just to have the mountain of paperwork (red tape) completed to qualify for assistance through the many government agencies.

Our Coolangatta & Tweed Heads RSL Sub-Branch do magnificent work and your Board are especially pleased to be in a position to support them financially and in kind.

1918, the year of the Great World War, saw peace throughout Europe and the Middle East, and will no doubt be a huge commemoration and celebration. Watch this space.

Good health, thank you for your continued support and I look forward to catching up around our clubs.

towards helping replace furniture and white-goods or restock their kitchens or pantries.”

Major Elsley said they will continue to help people of the Tweed for as long as they continue to find people in need.

As Twin Towns celebrates 60 years in 2017, Club News flicks through the pages of the Annual Report and Club archives to uncover another few snippets from years gone by.

“Three years on from the Blue Mountains bushfires, the Salvation Army still has someone working full time in that region.

As the 60’s decade drew to a close and the world was abuzz with news of man’s first walk on the moon, Twin Towns had a feat of its own to celebrate.

“We expect it will be some months, maybe longer, before many of the Tweed flood victims have recovered from the emotional and financial losses this disaster has inflicted on their families and homes,” said Major Elsley.

For the first time in the Club’s history, annual revenue topped the million-dollar mark ($1,049,540) and net profit was $209,387 – the icing on the cake!

Every year, Twin Towns donates around a million dollars to local community organisations in need of financial assistance through its ClubGRANTS scheme.

All Twin Towns members should be proud to know that their Club supports the local community, in times of need, on their behalf.

Without the support of its members, Twin Towns would not be in a position to throw a financial life-line, when and where it’s needed most.

In the 1969 Annual Report, the late Chairman Mick Winders described it as “A rather startling result for a club which had a turnover of $30,000 in 1958”.

“THE REASON MAN HASN’T BEEN TO THE MOON IN 48 YEARS IS THERE’S NO TWIN TOWNS UP THERE.”

It’s unlikely that any of the 28 founding Twin Towns members at the end of July 1957 could have predicted the staggering growth their Club would achieve over the next decade or so, let alone the advent of a self-opening door to their Club.

Today, Twin Towns has around 40,000 members. The 2016 Annual Report listed total Club assets of $176M, annual revenue of $73.2M and a net profit before tax of $2.27M. The Clubs employ almost 400 staff.

During the Sixties, matters, large and small, pleased and intrigued the Board, such as the installation of a self-opening door which proved to be “a great innovation, despite minor technical difficulties at the time”; and the adoption of a new Constitution (incidentally, a new Constitution was recently approved by members and adopted at the May 2017 AGM).

Twin Towns Rocks On Twin Towns will transform its world-class showroom into a dance palace for Twin Towns Rocks On, two big nights of swing and rockabilly during Cooly Rocks On. Bands Dezzie D and The Stingrayz and A Band Call Twang will play from song lists designed to get fans up to dance on a massive 10 x 14m dancefloor.

The acts, both hailing from southeast Queensland, will perform back-to-back three-hour sets of 1950s and 60s hits on Friday 9 June and Saturday 10 June from 6pm to 12.30am.

Dezzie D and The Stingrayz will perform variations on their popular rhythm'n'swing sets that resurrect the hits of legends like Etta James, Big Mama Willie Mae Thornton and Ruth Brown to name a few.

"The thing I love about the songs we play is the up feeling they instill," said vocalist Dez Done.

"They're driven by the rhythms.

They're fun to perform and fun for audiences. Even those who don't want to dance - they still have a smile on their faces."

Dezzie D and The Stingrayz, rocking a new album called Cranked, will perform as a seven-piece band with a big horn section, with Greg Baikaloff on drums, Grant Watson on bass guitar, Butch Bellert on guitar, Andrew Saragossie on tenor sax, Matt Luff on baritone sax and Clint Allen on trumpet.

A Band Called Twang are a Sunshine Coast rockabilly act which has a long association with Cooly Rocks On. Miss Maree Gwynn on acoustic guitar and vocals, fingerpicking Dan Fargo on lead guitar and vocals, 'Slim' Tim Collett on slick slap bass and Toby 'Sticks' Baron

on drums will performs songs from their albums Rockabilly Girl and Rootin' Tootin'.

"We all love playing Cooly Rocks On," said Collett. "It's a festival with a broad base that supports not only rockabilly but rock'n'roll

and classic rock and the dance groups too.

People come up from interstate to enjoy the warmth, see the cars, hear the music, dance and have some fun."

Twin Towns Rocks On is a highlight of the Club's week-long celebration of Cooly Rocks On and will be as popular with those who love to watch as those who love to dance.

General entry, $20 per night, provides seats in the tiered section of the Showroom.

Entry also includes a drink from the Stars Bar - bottled water, draft beer, glass of house wine, soft drink, tea or coffee.

To book for Twin Towns Rocks On, head to www.twintowns.com.au or call 1800 014 014.

GARDEN CLUB Autumn gardening is in full swing with plenty of flowers to be seen.

Members benching display in May was fabulous. It’s great that members take the trouble to bring in their plants, flowers and veggies.

Committee does a great job in preparation and presentation for everyone’s pleasure. Members enjoyed a mystery bus tour finding great interest at Mullumbimby.

Thanks to the social committee.

St Johns Ambulance speaker Fay Glebe reminded members of the injuries that easily occur in the garden and bandaged Greg up beautifully. Now we know how to deal with an amputated finger, abrasions and cuts. Oh, and snake bites! “Don’t cut, suck or bite the injury as the hospital will need the venom from the entry wound and those old approaches only spread the venom”.Next meeting 6 June at 9.45am, Club Banora; guest speaker Sandra from Seed Savers.

Visitors welcome. Enquiries to Maria Harry 07 5524 8234.

The Yeronga Masters Club had their first Carnival and despite one or two teething problems it was a great success. Eleven of our members competed. Donna and

Tyneal were first-time competitors and did very well. Donna gained two 4th places in her age group and Tyneal was 3rd in hers.

George, our 99 year old, once again swam like a fish and came 1st and Michael was also 1st, both in their age groups. Leonie and Minnie were placed 2nd in their age groups and Robyn and Paul gained a “place” in theirs. Sue was Starter and some helped with time keeping, so our Club did a great job in assisting. Who could swim 4 million metres over a period of time? Michael has achieved this and has received his 4 Million Jacket to prove it! Congratulations, we are “awe-struck. Our Cancer Morning Tea was held at the Maynards and was a great success.

Plenty to eat and lots of us in pink.

Movie time in the Showroom Big laughs, big personalities and big ideas can be found on the big screen at Twin Towns during the month of June.

Why Him? is a comedy in the vein of Meet The Fockers and Father of Bride directed by John Hamburg (Along Came Polly). Bryan Cranston (Breaking Bad) plays an overprotective dad who doesn’t much like what he sees when he meets his daughter’s Silicon Valley tech star boyfriend played

by James Franco (127 Hours). The feeling’s mutual.

When it looks like a proposal is imminent, the fun begins.

Last Days in the Desert imagines Jesus Christ’s 40 days of exile in the desert, filled with prayer, fasting and temptation. Rodrigo Garcia (In Treatment, Nine Lives), son of Columbian writer Gabriel Garcia Marquez, directs this slow-burn drama which stars Ewan McGregor (Trainspotting, Star Wars) as

both Christ and The Devil.

The Founder is a biopic about Ray Kroc, the salesman who turned fast food restaurant McDonalds into the biggest restaurant chain in the world. Michael Keaton is persistence, ambition and ruthlessness personified in this basedon-a-real-life story of a risk taker, rule breaker and game changer, directed John Lee Hancock (Saving Mr Banks, Snow White and the Huntsman).

5 JUNE WHY HIM? (MA15+) Father-of-the-bride comedy, stars Bryan Cranston, James Franco & Zoey Deutch.

12 JUNE Movie cancelled. Public holiday.

19 JUNE LAST DAYS IN THE DESERT (M) Psychological thriller stars Ewan McGregor, Ciaran Hinds & Tye Sheridan.

26 JUNE THE FOUNDER (M) Biopic stars Michael Keaton, Patrick Wilson & Nick Offerman.

Movies screen at 11am and 7pm.

Entry to Twin Towns movies is $5 for members and visitors, with members receiving their $5 entry fee back in Twin Towns dollars.

Twin Towns dollars can be spent on food and beverages throughout any of the Clubs – Twin Towns, Club Banora, Twin Towns Juniors or Signatures at Mantra. Members can save them up for a special occasion or enjoy a coffee in Flame or Images after the movies.

Tweed Valley Weekly Locals Supporting Locals

Thursday June 1 - 2017

Book launch: The Life of Rev Dr Barry Marshall could be more widely known. Fortunately others agreed and I was awarded a research grant and further funding was donated by people who had known Barry.

At the time of his tragic death at age 47 in Oxford Barry Marshall was probably the most well known Anglican priest in Australia. An annual lecture is still held in his memory at Trinity College at The University of Melbourne. Barry predicted in the 1960s that if the church did not lose its complacency it would be irrelevant in a generation. Born in Coolah NSW, he was equally at home as a Bush Brother in Dubbo and Bourke as he was as a brilliant scholar in Oxford. His total dedication to priestly life and his mixture of erudition, playfulness and lampooning of his opposition were legendary. Some thought he was a saint. Others were alienated by his church rattling and his uncompromising positions.

3. What do you believe readers could take away from the book?

Readers will experience the life story of a remarkable Australian who walked the talk of his spirituality. He chose to serve in the outback rather than as a bishop, was unafraid to stand up for publication of ‘Lady Chatterley’s Lover’ by D.H. Lawrence in the days of censorship, defended from their bishops’ wrath young priests who were following the Death of God movement and tried to abolish infant baptism. It is a story that speaks of tragedy, failure, energy, authenticity, originality and leadership.

THE ZOOKEEPER’S WIFE Natural and man-made disasters affect animals as much as they do humans, and often more the animals as they are completely helpless, especially when in captivity. The movie The Zookeeper’s Wife tells the true story of two remarkable individuals who helped save not only human lives but also animals during the WWII aerial bombardment of Warsaw as German forces stormed Poland.

The Warsaw Zoo was not spared. The bombs killed many of the animals while the surviving ones panicked, roaming among the smoldering remains of what were once their cages. Jan Zabinski was the veterinarian director of the zoo, and he and his animalloving wife Antonina had a very close relationship with the animals in their care – they would even let their baby son sleep among lion cubs. Following the bombing, the Zabinskis tried to save as many animals as they could and later used the animals’ cages and underground tunnels as hiding places for Jewish refugees. They diverted the attention of the Nazis by suggesting to Lutz Heck - the head of the Berlin Zoo and ‘Hitler’s zoologist’ – to turn the zoo’s remaining structures into a pig farm to ultimately provide food for the occupying forces, and to conduct Heck’s absurd experiments on recreating an extinct type of wild cattle.

The film, which the New York Times has called ‘Schindler’s List with pets’, is based on the non-fiction book of the same name by Diane Ackerman, recounting the rescue of Jews from the Nazi invasion. It stars Jessica Chastain and Daniel Bruhl.

HONORARY RESEARCH Fellow at The University of Melbourne Dr Nola Firth will release her latest book in Murwillumbah this month after she recently completed the last chapters of The Armour of Light: The Life of Reverend Doctor Barry Marshall.

This biography of a remarkable Australian will be launched at the Regent Cinema on Wednesday, June 7, at 6pm, by Rev Dr John Tyman.

Rev Dr Barry Marshall predicted in the 1960s that if the church did not lose its complacency it would be irrelevant in a generation.

At the time of his tragic death in Oxford in 1970 he was probably the most well-known Anglican priest in Australia.

The Weekly recently spoke with Dr Firth about the book and her connection to the Tweed Shire.

1. Firstly, could you please tell readers about your connection to the Tweed Shire?

I moved to Murwillumbah in March last year while I was finishing this biography. The book has recently been launched at Trinity College, The University of Melbourne.

But I wanted to share it also with people I have met in my new home of Murwillumbah. Barry Marshall was a mixture of radical and conservative, a man with a deep understanding of spiritual life who refused to compromise his often original beliefs. He was the kind of person that many people in the Northern Rivers are very likely to empathise with and this book is accessible and written for non-religious and Christian alike. Rev Dr John Tyman, a long-term resident in the region and another priest and scholar who has endeavoured to live a radically Christian life and break down complacency in his church, has agreed to launch it here.

2. Could you give readers some background about the book and what it means to you?

I met Barry Marshall when I was a young undergraduate at the University of Melbourne. Although I am a long term Zen practitioner (with Christian roots), when I discovered 13 archival boxes full of material about him I decided his biography needed to be written so that his remarkable life

Director Gregory Miller talks Cultivating Murder “The support shown to Alison (Glen’s partner) and Glen’s family by the community around them continues to be an important part of their resilience.

“The general attitude among Glen’s friends and work colleagues is anger and determination not to be scared off by this terrible crime.

“We generally show the film and follow up with a Q&A, which is what we are doing at Murwillumbah and Mullumbimby screenings.

“At these sessions, we discuss what can happen now, to try to stop land clearing once again escalating, now that the State Government has changed and weakened the environment laws.

“This has been a big wake up call to

environment scientists and organisations who believed the Native Vegetation Act was containing land clearing.

“This is a big wake-up call that we have to always be mindful and protective of good legislation on the environment because their will always been pressure to develop land and industrialise the landscape.”

Mr Miller said he was a regular visitor to the Northern Rivers.

“I’m a regular visitor to Mulumbimby staying with my mother-in-law who lives there,” he said.

Cultivating Murder opens at the Regent Cinema on Saturday, June 3, at 7pm.

THE BUZZ across Australian cinema this week is a powerful feature documentary by director Gregory Miller titled Cultivating Murder, which will screen at The Regent Cinema in Murwillumbah on Saturday, June 3.

The film tells the heart-breaking story of the murder of Glen Turner, a public servant working for the Office of Environment and Heritage, who was shot on the side of a public road in Croppa Creek, 40 kilometers from Moree in 2014.

This film offers an insight into what large farming concerns and agribusiness see as the future which does not include responsible land management and conservation of the

natural environment.

The murderer, Ian Turnbull, a wealthy NSW rural producer, had previously been prosecuted for illegal land clearing.

During the murder trial Turnbull pleaded not guilty on the grounds of “substantial impairment” claiming the Office of Environment and Heritage was bankrupting his family agribusiness, and as a result, he was suffering acute depression.

In court, both claims were were shown to be untrue.

Ian Turnbull (82) died in hospital in March while serving a 35-year sentence for the murder of Glen Turner.

The Weekly spoke with director Mr Miller (pictured) and asked him several questions including whether Ian Turnbull showed any remorse.

“It is a big one, did Ian Turnbull have any remorse,” he said.

“The short answer is that he did not demonstrate any remorse even when he had ample opportunity to do so, during the eight week trial in the Supreme Court.

“The judge commented on this in the sentencing hearing. This lack of demonstrable remorse opens up another big question, why did he do it?

“I don’t believe any of the press have got near the answer and we do aim to give answers in the film.”

The Weekly also asked what aim or hope Mr Miller carried with the film following its release.

“The underlying hope in the film is shown in a number of ways,” he said.

34 NRL Tipping Competition Thursday June 1 - 2017

Tweed Valley Weekly Locals Supporting Locals

Plenty of backing for Blues this year

I WRITE this Wednesday morning in anticipation of the big game - by the time you read it the result has been finalised. Who is one nil up?

I feel this is NSW’s big chance - they are strong, Qld underdogs again and milking it like they always do. Napa will be a Qld veteran as will be Bird and Frizzell for the Blues. It’s just a great time of year.

The weekend’s NRL games proved tough viewing.

The Origin period depletes certain teams so much more so than others and a lot of the time how they manage and more to the point survive Origin can determine their season and get other teams back on track.

Broncos, Storm, Roosters provide plenty as have the Sharks this year and this six week period proves extremely difficult.

Rugby League is a great game, a game that has been around for over a 100 years and is part of us as an Australian culture.

However, it is also a business. Big business. A company that employs huge amounts of staff on a regular basis and provides work for many others on a sporadic basis.

That’s why the Players Association and the current stalemate is a concern.

It’s based on transparency, in that no one knows where the money is going.

The NRL have a huge TV deal with 9 and Fox and the players are the product and they know it.

I’d hate to think we do reach strike action, I believe it’s a bluff.

I understand the player’s want what they are worth and you have a short shelf life as an NRL footballer, however, at the end of the day they were

Footy Tipping Gurus POINTS LADDER

all 7 year old kids once just wanting to be a footballer and an NRL star and on TV like their heroes, they are now and I hope they don’t forget that.

I said the NRL employs lots of people, but there is plenty of volunteers at the grassroots level who need thanks also.

Those men and women who are in cleaning the sheds and grandstands before and after games, selling doubles on the gate, cooking burgers in the canteen, strapping players, selling beers in the can bar, balancing the books, doing stats and just generally helping out.

These people are the heart and soul of footy. Those people you see every Sunday and it wouldn’t be a sunday without them. I love that stuff. It’s a great game.

See you at the Footy. Quinny

Cheers to a local legend HAPPY BIRTHDAY to Murwillumbah local icon Phil Taylor who celebrates his 74th birthday today (June 1).

It’s another special occasion for Phil today who is also celebrating his 60th year since he started work as a fresh-faced youngster of just 14 at his father’s fuel-pumping business.

Known as Taylor’s Corner, which is still there today, a young Phil started pumping gas for shillings before working his whole life and eventually taking over his father’s legacy.

“I still remember those days of my first job pumping fuel,” he said.

“Within a few weeks, I was doing it all, point of sale, maintenance and everything I could learn.”

Phil said he’s always been an inquisitive type and cars were just part of his upbringing.

A great believer in recycling and reusing items, Phil said he’s always had a strong desire to repair things instead of throwing them away.

Although Phil worked for many years at Taylor’s Corner these days you can find him at Prospero Street still working with cars and loving the local region.

How can you tell when a whale or dolphin is distressed?

• irregular changes of direction or in swimming speed • hasty dives • changes in breathing patterns • aggressive behaviour such as tail slashing or forceful ‘trumpet blows’.

Whales and dolphins sometimes approach vessels, or dolphins may ride the bow wave (it is an offence under the Regulation to encourage them to do so). In these situations, do not suddenly change speed or direction in the case of a whale. Slow down, engage neutral and wait until the animal has moved beyond the approach distance. Then, travel at a constant slow speed until you leave the caution zone.

In NSW, dolphins also live in coastal rivers and it is necessary to maintain the approach distance from them. However, if the river is not wide enough to enable a vessel to remain 50 m from the closest dolphin without threatening the safety of the vessel or its passengers, move the vessel away from the dolphin as soon as possible at a constant slow speed. Avoid colliding with the dolphin or travelling through a pod.

Hi my name is Nathan Benard and together with my wife Jessica we are the owners of Hydro X Carpet Cleaning and Pest Management.

I have lived in Murwillumbah all my life while Jess has lived in the area for over 15 years and we are so happy to be raising our two children in such a beautiful part of the country. That is why keeping our business local is so important to us.

At Hydro X, we know that a clean home is essential to good health. We specialise in Carpet Cleaning and Pest Management to keep your home clean and free from nasty pests.

We not only clean carpets, rugs, upholstery and mattress but also offer stain removal, odour decontamination and water extraction & flood damage restoration. We do this using the #1 Truck-mounted carpet cleaning machine in the industry, giving us the hottest water and strongest vacuum around.

The climate on the Tweed is the perfect breeding ground for pests. This mean that Pest control should be carried out every 12 months to ensure your home is kept free from pests.

Update on Ball Series titles

THE BURRINGBAR Ball series took place last Saturday, May

27.

This old hall is heritage listed and is well supported by the local community being used every day of the week.

The funds that are generated go directly back into the hall and have paid for a new fence, upgrades and on-going maintenance.

The hall provides a commercial kitchen and is available for functions and three day wedding hire. Judges on the night were Phil Connor and Serena Dolinska. The winners on the night were: • Miss Burringbar is Maddison Mumford of Murwillumbah • Tiny Tot Miss is Alierra Kilburn of Uki • Tiny Tot Beau is Sampson Kilburn of Uki • Junior Miss is Maddi Keanie of Mooball • Matron is Justine Carragher of Uki • Senior Beau is Jim O’Brien of Mount Burrell All the ladies received a sash and the men a medallion along with a small gift. They will be participants in the final Ball held at the Catholic Hall in Murwillumbah on August 5. The Balls continue with Crystal Creek on June 3, Uki on June 17, then Tyalgum on June 24, and Chillingham on July 29 will complete the selection competition.The Tweed Ball Series has past the halfway mark with only four chances left to gain entry into the final of the Tweed Ball Series for the reigning titles of the Tweed. This is a family night that also offers Debutants an opportunity to improve their dancing skills and dress up a bit. Come and join us for a social evening on the dance floor.

Murwillumbah Service’s Club Under 16 Coach Dave Well we had a big week being promoted from division 2 to division 1 Gold Coast Juniors.

A big step up for us and showing that Northern Rivers Junior AFL side is pretty healthy. We got a bit of a touch up by the ladder leading unbeaten Labrador at Ormeau Sports Park Kingsholme Qld on Saturday morning.

They had a better structural set up than us and got the ball out if the centre bounces.

Our skill level is there as we shown this when we got the ball out of the centre into our forward line we went in 5 times 1 goal Labrador went in 5 times 4 goals this is where we as coaches broke down as a coach I have to fix this it is up to me to teach these young men to play a better style of footy to combat this we will work on this at our training sessions.

The boys tried their guts out all day. And still very proud of them . Next week we take on the Burleigh Bombers at home Barry Sheppard oval Cabarita Sunday 4th June at 2.00pm hope to see you there .

IGA U12s Vulcans Coach Dom

The Vulcans versed Byron Magpies last Sunday with lots of determination in the first two quarters, but could not match the Pies on the scoreboard.

The last two quarters we saw the Vulcans bounce back and out score the red hot Pies. The Vulcans let the Maggies score to many six pointers in the first half to stay in the game .

Lots of football lessons learnt on Sunday from the

very classy Black n Whites, The Vulcans Boys train and try hard , and never say die effort on the field will see them in finish in front soon.

Murwillumbah Services Memorial Club award winner this week went to a very determined Finlay Purnell. Good work Finlay.

Vulcans U10’S Coach Steve

The mini U10 Vulcans versed the mighty high flying Byron Magpies last week end. Despite a late entrance the “bash brothers” Oscar and Ben made an immediate impact in shortening up the runs of the much taller and faster pies’. The mid field of Eva, Addis and Dougal made getting the ball from the toss hard for the Byron boys.

The fluent skills of our opposition were hard to match but the boys and girls gave their best. Kaden and Taylor shone brightly in the backs making tackle after tackle to minimise Byron’s scoring opportunities.

Our new coming star Andrew Lane made the most of any ball he got near chasing down the play feverishly.

Jed and Tylenah and Fin played around the edges all game long.

Next weekend we play Brunswick down there which should be a bruising affair.

Next Sunday Vulcans vs Bulldogs at Brunswick ,so come on down and cheer on your local Australian Rules Club games start 8.30am onwards.

POLICE BEAT Man arrested after Tyalgum drug bust TWEED POLICE carried out a search warrant on a Larkins Road property in Tyalgum on Wednesday, May 24, uncovering 29 cannabis plants.

The officers also discovered an unregistered firearm at the property and almost three kilograms of cannabis leaf.

Officers from the Target Action Group said they charged a 57-year-old male at the property and transported him to Tweed Heads Police Station.

Police said the man was charged with several drug and firearm offences.

He was released on strict conditional bail, to appear at Murwillumbah Local Court on June 27.

Rescue Squad attend single vehicle crash at North Tumbulgum

TWEED DISTRICT Rescue Squad were called to a motor vehicle crash on Hogans Road at about 6.30pm on Monday, May 29.

The volunteers rescue crews found a vehicle had left the road on a right-hand bend slamming into a tree and coming to rest in a precarious position on the side of a steep embankment, trapping the driver and passenger by confinement inside.

Rescue workers stabilised the vehicle to secure it from further sliding 30 metres down

a steep embankment.

Entry was then gained by removing the driver’s door so ambulance paramedics could assess the patients injuries.

Patients were extricated from the vehicle drivers side with the assistance of ambulance paramedics and Bilambil Rural Fire Brigade volunteers.

Hogans Road was closed for a short period of time whilst the rescue operation was undertaken.

Ambulance paramedics conveyed both driver and passenger to Tweed Hospital both the drive and passengers condition was believed to be stable.

Community assistance needed over Chinderah break ins

KINGSCLIFF POLICE are seeking

public assistance to identify two males shown in CCTV footage who may be able to help with their investigations into a number of break-ins at Chinderah last week.

Police said that several break-ins with items stolen were reported at Chinderah between May 20 and 22.

They believe the two males may have been camping in the Chinderah area and had access to a Grey Holden 4WD/SUV. The first video clip shows a male jumping a barrier and walking out of sight.

The male is wearing long black tracksuit pants with white stripes and distinctive black

and white shoes with bright red shoelaces.

He is bald or has a shaven head and dark goatee style beard. He has numerous tattoos on both arms and has a thick gold chain around his neck.

The second video clip shows two males walking up a laneway.

The taller of the two males appears to be the same male previously shown jumping a barrier. He is wearing a long sleeved grey top, grey cap and backpack.

The shorter male is wearing a black t/shirt

and short, with black and white soled shoes.

He has a shaved head and grey goatee style beard.

If any member of the community has information on the two males or knows where they may be staying, they can contact Kingscliff Police Station on 02 6674 9399 or Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000.

Information obtained from the community suggests the two men may also frequent the Richmond Local Area Command.

Bowls Notes

Paradise with Judy Tuckey Bowlers of course, Cabarita

CABARITA’S INAUGURAL May Carnival, formatted on a Two Bowls Triples competition with total prize money of $7265 on offer, resulted in the greens being filled to capacity with nominations received from both sides of the border.

Winners of the Two Day Tournament were Max Jaffrey (S), Dave Dodge and Ken Emura (Broadbeach) with Kingscliff’s Ian Taylor (S), Greg Barrack and Ken Banks collecting the Runners-Up purse.

Third and Fourth placings went to teams skipped by Glen Pitts (South Lismore) and Phil Bennett (Pottsville) respectively with further pay packets awarded to Section winners and placegetters as well as Round winners.

President David Crow sincerely thanks Caltex Starmart Chinderah, Russell Hardy’s Excavations, Paul Henricks

and, Club Limited for their generous sponsorship that assured this top quality event was successful.

Cabarita Beach Bowls Clubs’ Benefit Day in aid of flood ravaged Condong Bowling Club drew entries that filled three greens to capacity to launch the beginning of a great day of fun.

A top-notch lunch was followed by an auction of donated items with Condong’s Jeff Keevers wielding the hammer. A huge run-down raffle and lucky number boards topped off the day’s fund raising.

Presidents Karen and Dave thank the generosity of local business houses, together with the Coles and Woolworths Supermarkets in the area, who contributed greatly towards the success of this event.

With over $5000 raised, Cabarita Beach bowls clubs are to be congratulated on a grand result.

HOCKEY with Richard Phillip

Weekend hockey results: IN THE men’s competition the Waratahs played a double header and came away winners both times with a 5 to 1 win over Murwillumbah on Friday, May 26, and then on Saturday they just out edged Kingscliff to win 3 to 2.

The Casuarina and Murwillumbah game on Saturday saw Casuarina Sharks notch up another win to their tally with an impressive defeat over Murwillumbah 7 to 2 with Joe Sandor scoring a triple and Oli Conroy a double and Alex Barns and Mathew Bartel.

In the women’s competition was a decider to see who goes into the grand final next week and we saw Waratah Falcons dominate

again with a 7 to 0 win over Ballina with Emily Hetherington again scoring four goals after two quick goals by Tariny Prichard and finished off with 1 to Bobbie Philip. This give Waratahs 24 goals in their last four games.

Kingscliff played East Lismore and we saw a 5 to 1 win to Kingscliff in what was a scrappy first half which was 1 to 1 but Kingscliff tightened their straps in the second half with four unanswered goals to Jo Tunstall, Erica Wells, Ciara Laybutt and Ella Shultz Murwillumbah played Northern Star and also had a good 4 to 0 win with Shari East scoring first as both teams created scoring opportunities but it was Murwillumbah’s Natasha Wyborn who turned back the

Day Carnival in support of the Kingscliff Branch of Legacy resulted in full greens and a large crowd of supporters.

The coveted “Digger’s Day Shield” challenge between hosts and guests (Kingscliff Legacy members) concluded with the Cudgen folk claiming victory.

Shame the Shield is currently MIA! However, with over $1100 being raised via green fees, raffles and donations, the big winner on the day was Kingscliff Legacy Club and all the widows and families they support.

Women’s championships are still continuing around the clubs. Brunswick Heads’ Pairs final saw Jenny Lofts (Skip) and Sherril Pearce challenging Jenny Meinel (Skip) and Bev Gawned for top honours. Team Meinel, being slow to find their rhythm, allowed team Lofts to notch up a handy lead early.

A strong fight back in the latter part of the game to reduce their deficit came too late, leaving Jenny and Sherril to close the game with a reasonable buffer to claim victory.

Pottsville’s Open Singles Championship final between Doreen Buckley and Coral

Nathan resulted in a classic draw game.

High quality bowling from both ladies was the order of the day with a scorecard that didn’t reveal how tight the dual eventuated.

However, Doreen while taking a very narrow lead from the beginning, was able to contain Coral and claim the top spot with a narrow margin See you on the greens. Good bowling everyone.

clock of time and netted the next three goals herself to make it a dominate win to Murwillumbah Casuarina vs Glee and in what seems to be a trend for Glee as they were out played in the first half and the game was out of reach from their as Casuarina with goals to Keely Muray (2) then Ella Fitzpatrick and Savannah Fitzpatrick putting them four goals up.

The game ended in a 6 to 2 win to Casuarina as Keely Murray scored again to give her a hat trick for the game.

Australian Surf Movie Festival in Town Next Week

TIM BONYTHON has been filming big waves almost all of his adult life, breaking through with his film “Biggest Wednesday” released in the year 2000.

Since then big wave surfing has evolved radically and Tim’s relationship with this genre of the sport has grown more than any other. “The Big Wave Project” is about just that. It’s everything from where it came from to where it is now.

The film has taken Tim around the planet to interview the world’s most renowned big wave surfers and to record the biggest and most death-defying waves.

It’s a narrative that will scare viewers as much as it will exhilarate.

“The danger level increases as we attempt to climb a mountain of water where the peak keeps getting higher,” says Alex Gray, one of the film’s participants.

The progression of the skill level of big wave surfing collides with the best swell season in 30 years as the world’s best and bravest paddle, and also tow, into some of the greatest waves ever documented. This includes what has been called “the biggest wave ever attempted” featuring Aaron Gold’s infamous massive paddle-in wave at Jaws, in Hawaii.

The film also travels across Australia, Tahiti and finally to Europe’s new frontier of Nazaré, in Portugal. Featured surfers include Jamie Mitchell, Aaron Gold, Mark Healey, Ryan Hipwood, Grant “Twiggy” Baker and Billy Kemper, with insights from Peter Mel, big wave icon Greg Noll, the legendary late Brock Little

and many more …

Well you can see what all the hype is about with shows at Byron Bay, Thurday the 8th of June, Coolangatta Birch Carrol and Coyle Cinema, on Friday 9th June at 7pm, and Sunday the 11th June at 4.30 at Pacific Fair Birch Carrol and Coyle Cinemas. Book your tickets ASAP as the show has been selling out across the country!

Casuarina Rugby Club given boost DEVELOPER CLARENCE Property has announced a sponsorship for Casuarina Rugby Club to the tune of $10,000.

Clarence Property is currently in the final stages of planning for its new $70 million master-planned Casuarina Beach community.

The sponsorship will fund new facilities and enable the club to build a western side fence and install its first scoreboard.

Casuarina Rugby coach Adam Leach says the donation has come at the right time for the club to attract recruits for its new women’s teams and growing senior rugby side.

“There is a lot of excitement surrounding Rugby at the moment, following the women’s Olympic Rugby team taking home a gold medal, and the start of three new women’s teams on the Gold Coast earlier this year, and the creation of our first Senior Men’s team”, Mr Leach said.

“The sport is evolving and changing, and this donation will help us grow and provide the best possible training and competition environment for our players. We want them to feel like they can start here and go anywhere in the world of senior Rugby, if

Bananas have big win against Cockatoos LAST SATURDAY, May 27, saw a home-game clash between The Gentlemen of Murwillumbah ‘Bananas’ and Kyogle Cockatoos.

Both teams were looking for redemption when they clashed in the early hours of Saturday afternoon, having both suffered heavy losses the week prior.

The Bananas moral was very much boosted by the return of veteran second rower Daniel Raye as their forwards matched the size of Kyogle early on in the encounter.

The Bananas scored first points just minutes in to the game with a try to prop Matthew Hughes, followed soon after by

Raiders take home win

THE MURWILLUMBAH Mustangs met a strong Tweed Coast Raiders side at Stan Sercomb Oval on Sunday, May 28.

Both sides looked determined to make their mark in the first half with the Raiders showing why they’ve been among the front runners in this year’s NRRRL ladder leaders, scoring first and backing it up with another before the end of the first half.

The Raiders front rowers managed to break down a strong Mustangs side as Murwillumbah managed to fight back in the second half.

But the Raiders rallied and produced

an outstanding effort pushing away and claiming victory in a convincing win 22 to Mustangs 12 victory.

Mustangs spectator were evenly matched by their Raiders neighbours and they brought a hardy amount of passion for a strong local side.

It’s not over for the Mustang by any means this season, with plenty of games to come this season which mean more action for spectators.

The Mustang will play Kyogle away on Sunday, June 3. The Raiders will take on Mullumbimby at home, while Cudgen will visit Evans Heads.

they stay committed to their training.”

Clarence Property Managing Director Peter Fahey says the sponsorship of the Rugby Club is part of Clarence’s ongoing commitment to the Casuarina community.

“We have previously helped the Casuarina Hockey Club to complete their clubhouse and we have had a four year relationship with the Salt Surf Life Saving Club.

Grassroots sports run by local volunteers are an important part of every community and its something we will continue to support wherever we can,” Mr Fahey said.

“We are also currently working with the State Government and Tweed Shire Council to finalise the release of the final stages of Casuarina Beach.”

another try to center Morgan Buchanan.

The first half was a one-sided affair as the Bananas held Kyogle scoreless with their defence holding solid but discipline poor as they gave away several penalties for offside.

Winger Isaac Pollack scored the last try of the first half out wide with safe hands cleaning up a rather difficult pass.

The second half was a difficult and scrappy period as both teams gave more than their fair share of penalties away, and neither side were able to capitalise on their advantage where there were points to be had.

Bananas however managed to keep the pressure on the Kyogle Cockatoos as scrumhalf Matthew Folkers took on the line himself early in the second half to score out wide in front of the club house.

Winger Joshua Harman converted the try and shortly after cross the line to collect the Bananas last try of the game, running 50 meters after a magnificent pop pass by Fullback, and player of the match, Will Warren.

The Kyogle Cockatoos managed to fight their way out of a tight situation moving the ball around the park, drawing in the bananas defence to score out wide in the dying minutes of the game. Bananas took the win 27-5.

Best on field for the Gentlemen of Murwillumbah ‘ Bananas’ were, Front rower Timothy Berry who was a wrecking ball in attack close to the line.

Fullback Will Warren took command of the backs and ran the Kyogle forwards around the park time and time again, and Front rower Matthew Hughes who also caused much havoc up front. The Gentlemen have several weeks of away games starting this week when they travel away to Yamba to play a revitalised and much stronger Yamba Buccaneers, who have recently beaten last year’s premiers Iluka.

The Bananas are ready for a very close game far from home, and look to overcome Yamba for a second time this season.
