Crime gangs at it again across Tweed Coast Ch Insp Cullen said the proliferation of online sales sites made it much easier to sell stolen goods. “It’s possible to sell tools through pawn shops but there are a myriad of avenues to sell goods online,� he said. “That makes it difficult to track but I’d encourage people to check pawn shops and watch online sites as well. “The greater message is to lock cars, garages and not to leave items of value in cars because it’s just too easy for the criminals to get hold of.� Police put out the following request: “If any residents in the area that have CCTV footage that may assist police in their investigation please contact Tweed Heads Police Station on 07 5506 9499,� police said. “If you are a victim of crime and the offence has just occurred or you have disturbed the offenders please call 000 or the police station direct on 07 55069499 so that police can respond immediately. “If you have discovered the offence a few hours later and no further evidence is available to the police than the correct reporting process is to contact the Police Assistance Line on 131444. “Please preserve the crime scene (House/car/garage) by not touching any areas that have been disturbed by the offenders until advised by the police. “Please cancel or suspend all credit/ key cards immediately to stop the thieves from using them for fraud offences via pay wave/tap and go systems. “Please lock your cars and homes as these offenders are taking advantage of cars and homes that are primarily unlocked or open. “Please do not leave your valuables in your car such as wallets, phones, ipads, laptops, cash, prescription glasses, car keys, house keys, tools, portable speakers, cds etc. “Police are continuing to investigate these matters with the assistance of Queensland Police, local residents and businesses in the area.� If anyone has any further information please contact Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000.

“He’s gone straight out and realised the car has been ransacked and a gas gun and a laser had both been taken - they are about $2,000 to replace. “They were on the back seat of the car, a Hilti GX120 Gas Gun in a large red Hilti box and a Dewalt Green Beam Laser in a black and yellow box both marked all over with the MG initials and a phone number.� Mrs Hansen said she called the police who initially weren’t going to come for fingerprints. “My husband insisted they send someone out to do the fingerprinting. He said even if they didn’t get something this time you might get them next time,� she said. “My husband had to go out and buy another laser and another gas gun. “There was another young gun just starting out and they took all his tools too and they just get away with it.� Mrs Hansen said the police officer who attended the scene said to check Coolangatta pawn shops. “When the car door was open my husband thought he must have forgot to lock them but the fingerprint guy said they had technology that sophisticated they can unlock a car without a key,� she said. “That’s frightening that they can just do that.� Mrs Hansen said she still had hopes the tools would be recovered. “I counted from my own posts well over 500 shares which shows the reach social media has which gives me hope that these tools will be uncovered at some stage.� She estimated from what she had heard via social media that over $10,000 worth of tools were stolen from at least four locations. The crime spree is the first major one this year after a number of similar cases last year. Ch Insp Cullen said that fingerprints were taken where there was a scene that was suitable for processing. “There can be reasons why a place isn’t suitable and there are individual differences,� he told The Weekly.

By Jo Kennett POLICE HAVE once again warned residents to lock up after a crime spree on the Tweed Coast on Sunday, March 24. Tweed Police reported that between 1am and 6am on Sunday, March 24, there were multiple offences committed in the area including multiple motor vehicles stolen, 21 stealing offences, three break and enters at Kingscliff and Casuarina. Two of the stolen vehicles and have been recovered in the Kingscliff/ Chinderah area. There are still two stolen Audi motor vehicles missing, a 2018 white Audi Q2 sedan registration DTQ42L and a grey 2016 Audi A3 sedan registration DHR27E Tweed Byron Police District Detective Chief Inspector Brendon Cullen said there were “a couple of leads that we are looking at that were derived from some of the property that was stolen, tracing the property�. “Generally there was a lot of things stolen and cars broken into and property wasn’t secured,� Ch Insp Cullen said. “There were credit cards, phones, licences and these things are so easy to steal if they are left there.� There were car break-ins reported in Central Park Lane, Laceflower Parade, Casuarina Way, Vulcan Street, Hungerford Lane and Pheeny Lane. There was one case of fraud with a credit card stolen from a car in Kingscliff later used at a service station in Ashmore. A Kingscliff carpenter had about $4,000 worth of Makita tools stolen from a vehicle in Ozone Street. A Kingscliff resident had thousands of dollars of tools stolen from his utility in Eddy Avenue, North Kingscliff. His wife, Rebecca Hansen said that her husband woke up at around 7am on Sunday morning and noticed the rear passenger door on his vehicle, a 4WD Ford Ranger utility, was open. “We normally park it in the driveway but we are doing renovations and it was parked across the road,� she said.

Rural Land Strategy comments

I consider myself an authority on farming practices within the Burringbar valley, having lived and travelled the valley for 44 years. My property at the end of the valley, nine kilometres from the village of Burringbar, was purchased by my family in September 1974, on which to grow and produce avocados. The property was purchased on the advice of the Department of Agriculture and knowing that the neighbouring property had an established avocado orchard planted in the 1960s under the supervision of the Department of Agriculture. To all potential, budding avocado growers at the time, the advice was to plant on well-drained soils, on slopes or hills with red to chocolate basalt soils. By the mid-90s to the year 2000 there were eight established commercial avocado orchards along Geles Road, Upper Burringbar. Tree numbers varied from 100 to 1,000. A further five orchards were established in the lower valley. Of the 14 I know of, there is only one fully commercial grower and one small grower relying on other income. Commercial avocado production like most horticultural tree crops have become broad acre pursuits of flat country, with large tree numbers and operations highly mechanised to maximise returns. Avocado orchards no longer in existence in Burringbar have gone back to weeds and forest including camphor laurel, lantana and exotic weeds. Much of the banana industry in the valley has suffered the same demise, along with competition from North Queensland were bananas are grown on flat terrain. I’ve seen the establishment and eventual death and disappearance of passionfruit, kiwi fruit, stone fruit, and tomatoes. I n re c e n t t i m e s, o n e l a rg e passionfruit planting has been

established, I believe at considerable expense on portions of what I consider marginal land. Of the 30-40 dairy farms that had existed before my time, one has been rejuvenated and is also value adding with cheese products. If it’s considered that a part of the Rural Land Strategy is to encourage “sustainable agriculture”, then it would be good to know just what forms would be encouraged for the Burringbar valley and where would that advice come from. I suggest that intensive land use be encouraged on smaller suitable areas of up to 10 hectares, many pursuits would be on less than this. Land not suitable for the above due to soils, topography etc should be considered as land/property to come under the 10 hectare rule, where portions can be subdivided, enabling a dwelling entitlement. I feel it’s important that it’s made public in the Rural Land Strategy, figures obtained from the Buerau of Agricultural Statistics the value of agricultural production over each decade from 1970 to now in the Burringbar valley. Phil Connor, Upper Burringbar

Goodbye to Kingscliff

Vale Kingscliff. Would Geoff Provest please turn out the lights when the last sane person has left. Jeremy Cornford, Kingscliff

Response from Doctor Allen

A “worried” Glenda Kamenos couldn’t get her facts quite correct regarding the Daly Inquiry into the 2004 Tweed Shire Council elections (TVW Letters, 21/3/19). I was neither a member of nor beholden to any political party. Anne Davies from the Sydney Morning Herald phoned me during prepoling and asked who was funding my campaign. I said I preferred not to be compromised by knowing the names of donors and referred her to Graham Staerk at Tweed Directions. He was honest with her and it made the Tweed Daily News headlines prior to the election. The Labor Minister for Local Government, Tony Kelly, called that Inquiry because a vindictive Councillor, disgruntled over losing his Mayoral position, presented purported evidence of corruption. No corruption or illegality was found by Maurice Daly or by ICAC or the Supreme Court which critiqued the Daly Inquiry. But an Inquiry was all the Minister needed to dismiss all Councillors and appoint that former Mayor as administrator. Ironically, it was Tony Kelly himself that ICAC found guilty of corruption in 2011.

Pushing paranoia over Cudgen developers, Labor and the Greens turned the election into a referendum on the hospital site; only Labor’s favoured a developer. The whole Tweed community has now decided that it wants the Tweed Valley Hospital built at Cudgen as soon as possible. All Tweed Councillors need to accept that verdict and get right behind this important project. We should all be worried if they don’t. Dr D Weston Allen, Cudgen

Red hospital-site soil wanted

Just an idea, can a large proportion of the red top soil at the hospital site be available for the Tweed community? Most people who own a house have room for a small raised garden bed in their yard. Most unit complexes will have a bit of space for a common area garden bed. A cubic metre of Cudgen soil will mean that the hospital site soil will keep producing food for locals for generations. Hundreds, possibly thousands of Tweed locals could benefit in this in soil transfer from a farm and the beating heart (soil) of that block of land will continue to provide food for a long time to come. A vegetable garden on part of the roof of the hospital will also be a great use of the top soil. Just open up the site for a weekend or two and let people bring their trailers and the government provide a bobcat and operator. It would barely cost the government a $1,000 but the value in people’s yards will always be there. Nathan Jones, Tweed

A business as usual election

I am so appalled and disappointed that the people of NSW voted for business as usual for the next four years. They voted for corporate dollars that have led to corruption, a continuing degradation of o u r e nv i ro n m e n t i n c l u d i n g mismanagement of our waterways and massive fish kills, destruction of our forests and koala habitat and worst of all, no movement on Climate Change nor support for Renewable energy. It was time for a real change and to move forward to a more sustainable future for this state for our selves, our children and grandchildren. What a waste and what a shame! Joanna Gardner, Uki

Intolerance to cyclists

With reference to Bill Buckley’s article ‘Cyclists could use some road sense on our roads’ – Tweed Valley Weekly (Thursday, March 21) I wish to make the following observations. This is typical bile from an obvious hater of cyclists. Bill you are a

manifestation of the intolerance, rudeness and impatience of modern day society. I digress, but even in the Sunday Telegraph (March 24) there is a full page article on how female surfers are being harassed by impatient and rude male surfboard riders. Once again, intolerance reigning supreme. Bill Buckley states that he lives at Crystal Creek, so I will ask how many times has he been caught behind slow moving tractors, garbage trucks, water tankers, etc? Bill, are you impatient with them? I would suggest not. Far easier to pick on vulnerable cyclists, who are slow moving, dressed in lycra and shock horror have the audacity to ride on taxpayer funded roads. I would remind Bill, cyclists have the right to use the roads like anyone else. I live in the area and I have never had your perceived problems with cyclists. Further, I find it impossible to believe that you were held up behind cyclists for more than 15 minutes. I would suggest a gross exaggeration from a very impatient individual. John Hurst, Kynnumboon

Former bowls club an eyesore

The whole issue of the Murwillumbah Bowls club has been an embarrassment to all involved. It should be tagged as civil neglect. The area since the bowls club ceased operations has been a slight on the community. A few years ago a number of people such as myself, experienced in youth and sports coaching and administration for many years suggested that a sports academy would be ideal in that location. It was suggested an upgrade of existing facilities to cater for 30 athletes, bunk accommodation, classroom, catering, adjacent to an indoor multi-purpose centre that could cater for additional sports, basketball for example would enhance the whole precinct. With such a large area possibly two bowling greens could be rejuvenated to cater for more senior activity. The centre could become a true community centre, with all sports coming together for the benefit of mainly the youth of the community but drawing senior participation as well. The corporate sector as usual has rated its ugly head. I would suggest that truly community minded individuals “lean on” our council and political representatives to assist in a matter which is in the “ cultural” not business interests of our community. Keith Wyatt, Murwillumbah

Please use the site Woolies

Definitely would like to see the site used for a Woolworths or Aldi store. Coles have a monopoly on shoppers in the Murwillumbah area and it’s now time to bring in another player. Trying to find parking now at Coles is so frustrating. Lining up to pay for groceries is a nightmare as Coles has obviously cut staff hours. So time for some competition! IGA are too expensive so either Woolworths or Aldi would make a killing in Murwillumbah! Carol Martin, Murwillumbah

Get on with redeveloping

In regards to the now defunct bowls club, in its current form and ownership it’s improbable to exist as a recreational facility. Please just get on with building a Woolworths supermarket and put some much needed competition into the town. And while you’re at it put an extension out the back of Coles Sunnyside and implement Aldi. Take a look at Casino, they have all three majors and the same size town as Murwillumbah. Come on council, get proactive and stop stalling. Robert King, Murwillumbah

Knock it down and start fresh

Woolworths supermarket or recreational? Anything is better than what is currently there. At this point the space is being used as a recreational space for drug users and a place for homeless people to sleep . The council need to take some responsibility and make the owners knock the bowls club building down until something is decided with the land. It’s not like the building is going to be renovated. The fires and vandalism will then cease. Simple . Joanna Raimund, Murwillumbah

Keep the site recreational

In relation to the bowls club site, I think it should remain recreational. The whole Knox Park precinct was a great idea all those years ago when it was put in place and now with its upgrades has been embraced by families in the area We don’t need another supermarket as what is the difference between Coles and Woolies and we have the other great alternative IGA Another supermarket would just be sharing customers and wouldn’t bring new customers into the town Judi Finnemore Murwillumbah Please note the views on the letters page are that of the letter writer and not of the Tweed Valley Weekly.

Call for unity on hospital site at Cudgen following election results democratic opportunity to speak,” she said. “Speak they did, loud and clear.” Ms Hockings said that although only the voters knew their reasons for doing so, every polling booth in Tweed had Tweed MP Geoff Provest topping the polls for first preferences. “An achievement no-one thought possible, including those supporting the Tweed Valley Hospital at Cudgen,” she said. “The results demonstrate the majority of Tweed want the hospital to be built without delay.” Ms Hockings said it had been a “tense 11 months for many in our community”. “There has been misinformation, political games, bullying and division, false accusations and passionate pleas, from both sides of the community debate,” she said.

“Accusations of corruption, brown paper bag deals and vested interest have been rife. “Even now some are still calling for a corruption enquiry. “It is time to lay down the batons and unite so we can heal as a community and positively contribute to the development.” Ms Hockings said over the next three years there are many more milestones to achieve, regulatory hurdles to jump, details to be finalised and election promises to be delivered. “There are also opportunities for community input still ahead,” she said. “Places on the Community Reference Panel and/or Project User Groups remain open to applications f ro m i n t e re s t e d c o m mu n i t y members.” Ms Hockings said by working together the Tweed Shire can “ensure our needs and desires for our hospital are achieved”. “The chance to provide input into the largest public health infrastructure investment for Tweed/ Byron is once in a lifetime,” she said. “The electorate has spoken. “Debate about the site is over. “ Tw e e d Va l l e y H o s p i t a l development continues as planned, at 771 Cudgen Road, Cudgen. Let’s move forward as a community and be involved.”

Read Relocate’s response

Penny Hockings with her family

Meanwhile, Relocate Team leader Hayley Paddon said it was a sad time for the future of Cudgen farmlands and the village of Kingscliff.

“The LNP has changed its unique character and the lives of residents forever,” she said. “There will be no going back now. “The election results do not change the fact there are still no approvals for the project. “We are also still waiting for the Department of Planning (DoPE) to be forthcoming with the report on rezoning, that outlines how the Minister came to the decision to override the land’s state significant status, which thus far they have failed to provide, despite the rezoning happening on February 22. “Our community will also be watching closely to see that Geoff Provest and this LNP government honour their ‘iron clad’ guarantees that they will not rezone and allow any more land to be developed and there will be no more loss of State Significant Farmland on the Cudgen Plateau.”

Read the Mayor’s response

Mayor Katie Milne said the development at Cudgen does not have full approval and said the “fight remains to save surrounding farmland from development”. Mayor Milne emphasised that she was concerned about the buffer areas and the future of State Significant Farmland following the election. “The pressure is now on the adjacent land,” she said. “The community won’t let the remaining State Significant Land around the hospital go without a fight. “If developers think they can build on the surrounding land at the Tweed they have another thing coming.”

Hayley and Jim Paddon

Mayor Milne said it was important to have health services at Tweed Heads. “I don’t think people opposed to the hospital site at Cudgen plateau will ever embrace the fact that there’s a hospital going there,” she said. “A s p a r t o f t h e p l a n n i n g process, they still need to meet the requirements around environmental impact study and outlining why there are no other alternative sites. “We need to keep this in context that almost half the Tweed electorate voted against Mr Provest.” “We’re only talking about a slim margin not a landslide victory.” YOUR THOUGHTS: Do you believe there should be unity around the Cudgen hospital development? Or does the fight to save surrounding farmland continue? Send your thoughts and letters to editor@ theweekly.net.au

By Jonathon Howard TWEED VALLEY Hospital Community Group member Penny Hockings is calling for bitter rivals battling over the Cudgen plateau to “lay down the batons and unite” following a reelected Nationals Member for Tweed Geoff Provest. But Mayor Katie Milne and Relocate Team leader Hayley Paddon said the fight remains to save surrounding State Significant Farmland as well as scrutinising further development applications at the Cudgen hospital site. Ms Hockings has come under criticism for supporting the Tweed Valley Hospital site at Cudgen telling The Weekly in a letter to the editor that it’s affected both her mental health and family life. “The ‘referendum on the hospital’ provided the silent majority, that many said didn’t exist, the

but told The Weekly that she’s also keeping an open mind. “One of the most difficult things to cope with is the focus on housing, rather than farming,” she said. “The focus was supposed to be around farming and supporting farming, not supporting housing.” Mayor Milne acknowledged that many farmers are extremely busy people and the document was lengthy and time consuming to digest. “To address this concern, we’re going to simplify and make the document layout a path to inform people,” she said. “There’s farmers on both side of the debate around the secondary dwellings, with some farmers in support and some farmers against. “I don’t want to pre-empt any reference group and I hope these groups will give each side a view of the strategy. “I am open to ideas from both sides and I’m willing to dive deeper into the issue.” Mayor Milne said she was open to what Tweed landholders have to say. “But I remain concerned about opening housing on rural land that was meant to be for farming,” she said. “Housing in my mind is where we have urban areas and rural lands are for farming. “That my primary consideration, but I’m open to suggestions and my mind is not made up.” The second point in the Mayor’s motion will call for expressions of interest for a project reference group from a “broad section of community stakeholders” to review the draft strategy and to also include the Department of Primary Industries, councillors, and Council staff from relevant areas of planning, sustainable agriculture, natural resource management and the communications unit. “The process of review should be assisted by an independent facilitator to ensure that the information is presented clearly and concisely in plain English and feedback is captured,” the motion reads. “The strategy should articulate opportunities for the current community of rural landholders as well as a vision for farming and rural land management into the future. “The Department of Primary Industries be requested to provide advice on the short, medium and long term (50+ years) challenges and opportunities for agriculture in the Tweed in regard to Climate Change.”

Tweed landholder and member of the Combined Tweed Rural Industries Association Neil Baker said the motion was carried with a unanimous vote and has been met with positive feedback from landholders. “I believe the suspension of the Draft Rural Land Strategy acknowledges the lack of effective communication with the farmers,” Mr Baker said in a statement to The Weekly. “This will now enable all farmers and rural landowners to be informed and provide their collective input. “Many farmers and rural landowners will also be completely unaware of the A19 – Biodiversity and Habitat Management Policy and Aboriginal Heritage Strategies from Council which are now in operation and impacts our land. “We maintain, as with the RLS now, that there has not been an effective communication process in place.” Mr Baker questioned how there can be effective consultation when the key stakeholder group is not aware or informed of the proposal. “I would also differ with the Mayor’s view that this has become a housing debate,” he said. “Even if a landholder has this option for secondary dwellings, many landholders won’t take up the option.” Mr Baker said the Draft RLS is a document that recognises and facilitates the resourcing needs of Tweed and its economic and environmental sustainability into the future. “It needs to seriously consider the key stakeholder group whose future viabilty will be affected,” he said. “We look forward to the round table discussion organised by the Business Chamber and continuing the recent productive discussions with all councillors.” YOUR THOUGHTS: Did you know about the Draft Rural Land Strategy?

Discretionary trusts have long been a means by which generations of Australians and businesses, particularly farmers, have achieved the objectives of asset protection, estate planning and tax benefits. Business lawyer Tony Mitchell of Stacks Law Firm warns that as baby-boomers approach their twilight years, it would be wise to consider what is involved in transferring control of discretionary trusts to the next generation. A discretionary trust is controlled by a person – the trustee – who has the power to choose the amount of money that will be paid to each beneficiary of the trust, signs documents on behalf of the trust and has a duty to act in the best interests of the beneficiaries. Many people might have heard of family trusts. They are a discretionary trust that is set up to hold a family’s assets, or to conduct a family business through a trust. “Transferring control of a discretionary trust is a crucial decision for the continued wellbeing of the family finances and to pass on assets that have been built up over a lifetime, even generations,” Mr Mitchell said. Issues that need careful consideration in transferring control include the following. • The retiring controllers maintaining some degree of control of the discretionary trust. • Where the retiring controllers will continue to derive income from the discretionary trust, ensuring that they are protected from the incoming controllers “going rogue” and excluding them from distributions. • Protecting the assets of the discretionary trust should an incoming controller suffer a relationship breakdown, a mental disability or a gambling addiction. • Achieving equity and fairness among not only the incoming controllers, but among all those who have a legitimate expectation of deriving benefit from the trust, such as those children and grandchildren of the retiring controllers who will not be the incoming controllers. • Ensuring that the change in control does not trigger an unintended adverse liability for capital gains tax or stamp duty. • Ensuring that unpaid present entitlements to which the retiring controllers are entitled are appropriately dealt with, without impacting on the financial stability of the discretionary trust. Mr Mitchell said transferring control of a trust can be complex, with legal technicalities that need to be made watertight for the security of beneficiaries. “Every trust is different and updating them needs to be done carefully, taking new circumstances of families into consideration. “It is very important that legal and financial advice from appropriately experienced practitioners be obtained by anyone who may be considering making this transition,” Mr Mitchell said.

By Jonathon Howard TWEED SHIRE Councillors have voted to suspend the highly debated Draft Rural Land Strategy (Draft RLS) to enable it to be “reviewed and represented with plain English and after a more inclusive stakeholder engagement”. A round table event will be convened by the Murwillumbah & District Business Chamber (MDBC) on Friday, April 5, at the Tumbulgum Community Hall from 1pm to 4pm. MDBC director Michael Simmons said Tweed Shire Councillors, state and federal members and representatives from a variety of groups including Tweed Tourism Company, Tweed Experiences Network, Destination Tweed, NSW Farmers, Combined Tweed Rural Industries Association, Northern Rivers Food, Regionality, Rotary and others have been invited to participate in the event.” “The RLS round table will be a focussed discussion aimed at providing clear recommendations to Tweed Shire Council, and is designed to complement TSC’s decision to seek broad community consultation on the strategy and its implications for the Tweed for the future,” Mr Simmons said. “The round table will be facilitated by Lt Col (rtd) David Gower Freeman, Barrister at Law, fourth Generation Farmer and Organic Farmer from Tomewin, Currumbin Valley. “The MDBC believes that it is vital that all those involved in rural industries in the Tweed, are consulted on a Rural Land Strategy that will have long-term implications for economic development, environmental sustainability and regional economic sustainability for the future.” The Draft RLS has come under intense criticism from Tweed landholders and several Councillors after Mayor Katie Milne raised a motion to remove several items pertaining to secondary dwellings. The Draft RLS amendments could rule out secondary dwellings on rural lots (RU1 and RU2) greater than 10 hectares as well as raising the minimum lot size of RU1 zones from 10 hectares to 40 hectares. The motion to suspend the Draft RLS was raised by Mayor Milne during councillor’s monthly meeting on Thursday, March 1, with five major points highlighted. Mayor Milne said it was important that the viability of farmlands is maintained

All farmers and land managers in the Tweed are requested to complete a short survey to help develop a new skills program.

New survey harvests local knowledge Tweed Shire Council is working with Southern Cross University to help Tweed’s farmers develop new skills through a project funded by the NSW Environmental Trust. The ‘Small Farms Big Changes’ project aims to deliver a series of eight workshops and field days to fill knowledge gaps and assist local farmers maintain and enhance farm health, as well as seek ideas on the best strategies to address environmental challenges. Southern Cross University has developed a survey in consultation with a focus group of local farmers to better understand how farmers like to learn and to determine their most essential training needs. Program Leader – Sustainable Agriculture Eli Szandala said Council

wants to ensure that the educational program delivered over the next 18 months provides relevant and practical advice. “We encourage all farmers and land managers to help us develop the program by completing this short survey,” Mr Szandala said.

Mosquito numbers on the rise after recent rain Recent rain and higher than usual tides across the Tweed have created ideal conditions for mosquito breeding.

Mosquito control – ground treatment being undertaken by Council staff.

Council’s Pest Management Supervisor, Brian Falkner, said it was a timely reminder for residents to tip out any containers holding water on their property to try to help prevent mosquito breeding. “We are currently carrying out aerial and ground treatments to try to control mosquito numbers but it’s also important for residents to reduce the impact around their homes given the potential risk of serious mosquito-borne viruses,” Mr Falkner said. What you can do: • keep your yard well-maintained, mow lawns regularly, and limit areas of dense vegetation • ensure you cover all windows, doors, chimneys, vents and other entrances with insect screens that are in good condition • clean up your yard and remove all water holding containers or rubbish and keep house gutters clean and properly aligned • empty and refill pet water bowls and bird baths at least weekly • ensure all openings to water tanks and septic tanks are screened securely • place sand or fine gravel in pot plant trays, or flush them out weekly • keep ornamental ponds stocked with native fish species that will feed on larvae.

The progress of Council’s draft Rural Land Strategy Review has been suspended to enable a more detailed process of stakeholder engagement and independent review, following a decision at last Thursday’s Council Meeting. “Resolved that: 1. The development of the draft Strategy be suspended for a period to enable it to be reviewed and represented with plain English and after a more inclusive stakeholder engagement. 2. Expressions of Interest are called for a project reference group from a broad section of community stakeholders to review the draft strategy and to also include the Department of Primary Industries, Councillors, and Council staff from relevant areas of planning, sustainable agriculture, natural resource management and the communications unit. 3. The process of review should be assisted by an independent facilitator to ensure that the information is presented clearly and concisely in plain English and feedback is captured. 4. The strategy should articulate opportunities for the current community of rural land holders as well as a vision for farming and rural land management into the future. 5. The Department of Primary Industries be requested to provide advice on the short, medium and long term (50+ years) challenges and opportunities for agriculture in the Tweed in regard to climate change.” To view the resolution visit the Minutes of the 21 March 2019 Council Meeting at www.tweed.nsw.gov.au/CouncilMeetings

New group tapping into water knowledge

Next stop rail trail group Council is calling on landowners adjoining the rail corridor to join a Landowners Sharing Group to assist the Rail Trail Project team identify and resolve landowner concerns as the project progresses. Last week, 35 landowners attended the first of a series of conversations about the rail trail where they were invited to voice their concerns to both councillors and the project team. Rail Trail Project Director Iain Lonsdale said Council was delivering the significant regional recreation and tourist product for the Northern Rivers region with funding support from both the state and federal governments. “While we do not have all the answers to the specific questions landowners have, we accept that their concerns around their properties, businesses and lifestyles are legitimate and we are keen to work with them to safeguard their interests,” Mr Lonsdale said. The Landowners Sharing Group will work collaboratively to identify solutions to issues such as fencing, trespass and weed management. Council has shortlisted four companies (with two in reserve) to proceed to tender for the design and construct contract for the rail trail. “It’s important that these companies are aware of individual landowner concerns so they can incorporate and cost solutions in the detailed design of the rail trail where possible,” he said. Landowners adjoining the rail corridor are invited to join the Landowners Sharing Group by emailing RailTrail@tweed.nsw.gov.au or phoning the Rail Trail hotline on 1800 826 267. The Rail Trail Project is on track for construction to start around July this year. Members of the community are invited to leave their feedback and questions about the rail trail at www.yoursaytweed.com.au/RailTrail

Much ado about poo We all know it’s important to pick up after your dog when enjoying a walk. It’s equally important to pick up after your horse. Horse droppings on footpaths and public reserves are becoming an increasing nuisance on footpaths and public reserves. There is no legislation or enforcement powers covering horse dung, as unlike dog poo, horse dung from a healthy horse presents no risk to human health. Council’s Director Planning and Regulation Vince Connell said horse riders were encouraged to clean up after their animals when using public spaces. “Many people get great pleasure from taking their horses out for some exercise and a ride,” Mr Connell said. “However horses on local reserves and along footpaths can leave behind a mess, so we’re encouraging people pick up after their horses, just like dogs. “It’s important as our local reserves and public spaces are for the whole community to enjoy and we’re urging horse riders to be considerate of other residents,” he said.

Melanie Moss will use her grant through the Innovative Solutions Grant Fund to establishing a hardstand area with shelter, fencing and drainage works, designed to protect the land and the health of her horses.

Funding for innovative ideas A clever horse management system designed to increase horse wellbeing while reducing impacts on the environment is the first project to receive funding through Council’s new Innovative Solutions Grant Fund. The Innovative Solutions Grant Fund encourages and supports individuals, organisations and community groups to develop new, creative and innovative solutions for a range of current sustainability challenges facing the Tweed. Melanie Moss from Stokers Siding received grant funding to adopt the ‘Equicentral System’, which links paddocks to a communal surfaced yard area. The project involves establishing a hardstand area with shelter, fencing and drainage works. Council is contributing almost $4,000 to the project through the Sustainable Agriculture Small Grants Program, in partnership with the Innovative Solutions Grant Fund, with the majority of works (more than $15,000 in cash and in-kind) to be funded by the landowner. Council’s Program Leader – Sustainable Agriculture Eli Szandala said it was a sustainable system that saves time, money and effort and increases the health of horses and pasture. Innovation Fund grants are available in the following categories: • Water Demand Management – total amount available $15,000 • Waste Management – total amount available a $15,000 • Sustainable Agriculture – total amount available $10,000 • Wastewater Management – total amount available $10,000 • River Health – total amount available $5,000 • Biodiversity – total amount available $5,000 Each program area has maximum amounts available per project. Applications can be made at any time and are assessed four times a year.

A community group has begun to review the work Council has been doing to ensure a safe and secure water supply for the future. The Water Strategies Review Project Reference Group was reformed from the membership of a community group which assisted Council to identify a preferred option for the augmentation of Council’s water supply in 2009. They have come together again to review our water strategies and the work Council has done in: • saving water (demand management) • managing drought, and • raising the wall of Clarrie Hall Dam (water augmentation). The group will look at the big picture of water and review all the relevant reports and decisions made relating to water security. They will also identify any issues that merit further investigation. Once the group has identified what needs to be looked at again or, possibly looked at for the first time, an independent consultant will be engaged to do that work. By early next year, the group will provide Council with an opinion on the existing strategies and make recommendations for any changes they consider may ensure the security of our water supply. To join the discussions, visit the water strategies project page at www.yoursaytweed.com.au

Geoff Provest MP gains fourth term By Jo Kennett THE NATIONAL Party’s Geoff Provest has been returned for his fourth term as the NSW Member for Tweed following a closely fought battle against Labor candidate Craig Elliot. Mr Provest, who was first elected in 2007 under a NSW Labor government, said his victory had been “a big team effort”. “You’re the candidate but you can’t do it on your own and I was supported by both young and old,” he said. “I want to thank my volunteers sincerely that stood out in the blazing sun all day during the very arduous two weeks of pre-polling. “To be a candidate is a gruelling exercise - you have moments of elation and disappointment and I pay tribute to all the other candidates including Labor. “You don’t understand until you do it, you get praise, you fight off criticism, you get abuse, you have to put up with false and misleading statements, but ultimately I had faith in the people of the Tweed. “I’m very humbled by it and I feel it’s a real honour to serve the people of the Tweed for the next four years.” Mr Provest said he was very excited for the future of the Tweed. “I think the hospital became the number one issue,” he said. “If you look at the results at Kingscliff and both booths won - they were clear and decisive about wanting the hospital there.” “We just have to deliver on our commitments now. As I’ve said during the campaign, politics isn’t real but what is real is the people and the issues.” Labor candidate Craig Elliot said the National Party had “very deep pockets’

Geoff Provest MP with some of his local fans celebrating the win

and had outspent them on television and other advertising. “That’s life - at the end of the day there were five people on the lower ballot and only one person can win,” Mr Elliot said. “I’ve always been pretty positive about everything I do - the ups and downs - and that’s politics. “I congratulate Geoff on winning and I’d like to acknowledge the work of all the candidates. “When you’re putting yourself up for public office it takes a lot of work and all the candidates were out there every day putting forward their policy agendas.” Mr Elliot said there were a lot of positives to take out of the election. “I congratulate the work of all the volunteers for all the parties but also right across the community, the whole community was very engaged,” he said. “I had some fantastic people helping me from the Labor Party. “It’s disappointing we didn’t get there this time but I’d like to thank all the people that voted for me. “I’m very, very proud of everyone who helped me on the campaign and it was a great privilege to be a Labor candidate.”

Mr Elliot said we are lucky to live in a country where everyone has their say. “People have made their decision and we should all be very encouraged that we have robust election campaigns and people turn up and can vote in safety,” he said. “For all the robustness of political life and for all the differences at the end of the day we still conduct ourselves in a reasonable, responsible way. “We embrace the diversity but we all turn up and vote without some of the conflicts we see in other countries. We are a good democracy.” Mr Elliot was senior policy advisor to the Qld Police Minister until 12 months ago. “I left that job to campaign full time so now I will just have a chat to Justine and the kids and see what we decide to do. “We have a federal election in two months and for now I will be there every day working with Justine to make sure we get a federal government elected in Canberra.”

Police find naked man on back seat after low speed chase

By Jonathon Howard A BIZARRE police pursuit took place at Tweed Heads on Wednesday, March 20, with a man found completely naked on the backseat of a four-wheel-drive. Tweed Police said it was around 6.22am when they were searching for offenders who had reportedly fled a home in a blue/grey coloured four-wheel-drive vehicle following an alleged break and enter when two minutes later they spotted a blue/grey Hyundai Santa Fe travelling east on Kennedy Drive, Tweed Heads. Police followed the vehicle, which initially had its headlights off, as it travelled onto the southbound Pacific Highway on-ramp.

“When it merged onto the highway it was travelling at a speed of approximately 70km per hour in the signposted 100km per hour speed zone,” police said. “As the vehicle approached the Kirkwood Road off-ramp police activated the warning devices on the police vehicle. “The vehicle failed to stop as directed and continued south on the Pacific Highway at a reduced speed of 50km per hour with the hazard lights activated. “Police followed the vehicle as it exited the highway at the Minjungbal Drive off-ramp and commenced to travel in a northerly direction on Minjungbal Drive at a speed of 40km

per hour in the signposted 60km per hour speed zone. “The vehicle continued north on Minjungbal Drive in the centre lane of three and made a harsh left hand turn from that lane into Machinery Drive. “The vehicle travelled west on Machinery Drive, travelling in a right turn only lane as it approached the intersection of Amber Road. The vehicle did not turn right as required but continued west. “The vehicle continued onto Greenway Drive where it straddled the broken centre lines near Traders Way before travelling on double unbroken centre lines near Enterprise Avenue. “At the intersection of Doyle Drive the vehicle made a harsh left hand

turn into Doyle Drive where it entered the car park of a private school. “The vehicle finally came to a stop in the car park and the driver, was removed from the vehicle and secured in handcuffs.” Police said they located another male, “completely naked”, in the back seat of the vehicle. “This person was laying across the back seat and not wearing a seatbelt,” police said. “The driver was arrested and taken to hospital for a blood and urine test. “ H e ha s be e n c ha rg e d w i th possessing a prohibited weapon, refusing to obey direction, negligent driving and aggravated break and enter and will appear at Tweed Heads Local court on May 13.”

Urliup Road residents allege unauthorised works at luxury forest retreat By Megan Albany A GROUP of Urliup Road residents are voicing strong concerns with what they allege to be “unauthorised works” at 1110 Urliup Road, which is a luxury forest eco-retreat. In a statement to The Weekly, the residents claim the owners of the property, Regal Retreats Pty Ltd, have been clearing parts of the property since purchasing it in November 2015 and residents believe Tweed Shire Council has “failed to act despite numerous complaints”. “It is highly likely they have already cleared enough of the property and if they now lodged a development application it would be passed after many years of clearing and disturbing koala habitats,” the residents’ letter to The Weekly said. The residents said they have been disturbed by the constant noise of machinery since the new owners purchased the property to operate the luxury eco-retreat. Residents claim the owners have also completed alleged unauthorised roadworks on the property. They claim there has been two years of uninterrupted work on the property with excavators and tree lopping and that the owners had advised Council they were grading existing roads. Residents claim the roadworks are far more extensive and note that the original development application (DA) plans show only one road up to the main residence, which branched off to a carpark for the cottages. Residents also claimed that renovations to the existing buildings,

to allow an increase in guests, were in breach of the existing DA. In a letter to Council, residents stated that the original cabins were all the same size, approximately 35 square metres excluding a small verandah and catered for a maximum of two guests. “The works being done to the cabins/villas is not just cosmetic work, it is renovations and extensive additions to the existing cabins,” the letter reads. The letter went on to state that no kitchens or laundries had been drawn by Ian Webb Design on the original Council approved floor plans of 1998. “All villas now advertise on the website that they have kitchens. But no kitchen is drawn on the Council approved plans,” the letter reads. “This is unauthorised building work.” The residents went on to allege that the villas have been extended to up to double the size of what has been previously approved. “Since the last Council inspection (1110 Urliup Road) March 2016 the following unauthorised works now include Mountain View Cabin has doubled to 70 square metres doubling the number of guests, Fountain View Cabin has increased to 51 square metres doubling the number of guests, Waterfall Villa has increased to 31 square metres,” the letter said. “We are very concerned that the owner will continue to do further building and construction works on the property, clear more bushland, construct more roads, build more villas and structures for

entertainment and acquire more accommodation in other forms such as caravans.” A representative for Regal Retreats Pty Ltd said the claims were “untrue” and that the company was not operating outside of the law and that they were committed to maintaining the natural beauty of their property. “The property was purchased because of its unique beauty and pristine areas of forest, but areas of it were unfortunately quite rundown,” a statement from the property owner’s solicitor reads. “Since the purchase by Regal Retreats Pty Ltd, extensive works have been undertaken by the owner, such as regeneration of degraded areas of land, maintenance of existing fire and access trails around the property for bushfire management, removal of weed infestations, improvement to sedimentation and erosion control, and internal improvements to the cabin and house.” The owner’s solicitor said that all works were approved by Council and that while they had renovated the existing buildings they had “not extended them”. “The owner has not increased the size of the three existing cabins, but has renovated the interiors and ensured the roofing is compliant with bushfire legislation,” she said. Regal Retreats Pty Ltd asserted that the addition of kitchenettes was legal under the legislation governing their DA. “The plans submitted for the original DA were concerned with

the dimensions, footings, building material, etc for the cabins. “The plans do not provide detail for the internal layout, plumbing and drainage, etc. “Separate plumbing and drainage approvals were required and obtained. “I think at best they (the kitchens) could be described as kitchenettes in the cabins, however, regardless of their inclusion and size, this is allowable under the legislation in respect of tourist accommodation. “The cabins are let out for holiday accommodation, as is authorised under the development approval for the property.” The solicitor went on to contend that improvements made to the existing house were completed to ensure that it was compliant with bushfire legislation and that any tree felling that had taken place was done with consent and undertaken for safety and bushfire management reasons. The owner’s solicitor said that Tweed Shire Council and the Department of Environment and Heritage had “cleared them of any wrongdoing, after inspecting the property as a consequence of complaints about broadscale clearing”. “Those investigations were closed because the complaints were unfounded,” the statement read. I n r e g a r d s t o ro a dwo r k s, the solicitor claimed that no unauthorised roadworks have been undertaken. “Machinery and vehicles complained of, have been engaged for sedimentation and erosion

control works on the property which were approved by the council,” the solicitor’s statement read. “Some further sealing of the main driveway, which is currently a bitumen driveway, will occur to correct potholes caused by weather events. “No further sealing of any access tracks or fire trails will occur.” In at statement to The Weekly, Regal Retreats Pty Ltd stated they would continue to work with Council to provide access for any necessary inspections. “The Department of Environment and Heritage has recently received a further complaint about ‘broadscale clearing’ on the property, and has been invited by the owner to inspect the property next week,” the statement read. “The Council has carried out more than six inspections over the last two years, most recently in the beginning of March 2019, because of complaints received about the property. “The property owner has not been prosecuted for any of the works undertaken on the property. “ T h e wo rk s h ave a l l b e e n authorised.” Council’s Manager Development Assessment Lindsay McGavin told The Weekly that investigations are being undertaken at the site “which has involved recent inspections by our officers, and correspondence between Council’s solicitors and the owner’s solicitors”. “As the investigation is ongoing it would not be appropriate to comment further at this stage,” Mr McGavin said.

2019 Charity Cup presentation celebrates By Jo Kennett THERE WERE inspiring stories, laughter and tears at the presentation for the 2019 Charity Cup, held at Cabarita Beach Sports Club on Monday, March 18. The presentation followed the Charity Cup Touch Football Competition, named the Tweed Shire Community Event of the Year and held at Les Burger Field Cabarita on February 2, which attracted 300 competitors and raised over $62,000 to go towards local families and organisations in need of support. According to one of the organisers, Mike Ashburn, the event started as a fundraiser for a friend who was battling illness seven years ago and has since raised over $200,000. “It’s not really about the money, it’s more about getting the community together and supporting each other,” Mike said. “When people are going through tough times it really helps to sit and listen to other people’s stories. “They realise they’re not alone. There is a whole community who cares about them and wants to support them.” Mike thanked the community for donating “their time, money and services to support the event”. “There were over 120 businesses that supported it and without them this whole event wouldn’t be possible so a massive thanks to them all for putting so much back into the community. “It’s a real privilege for the organisers to be able to be part of something that brings the community together.” Recipients of the event included Cabarita Youth Service, the Tweed Coast Raiders, Wedgetail, Kamilaroi Equestrian Centre and families who are facing challenges with health and disabilities, all of them getting up to

2019 Charity Cup organisers (back row) with recipients (front rows)

share their often shocking and heart-breaking stories. Karen Foran from not-for-profit organisation Kamilaroi Equestrian Centre, whose profoundly disabled daughter Alice nearly lost her life last year after five months in intensive care, said they had been “knocked around a bit over Christmas but thanks to the support of the community we have come out the other side”. “The organisers are just amazing and the community is really united in helping people who have suffered all sorts of unfortunate events,” she said.

“They have been there for us through thick and thin. “When we’re feeling down and out you see the most amazing people in the community and it makes you feel like you’re on top of the world with the most incredible support. “It’s highly emotional for me tonight listening to everyone’s stories and seeing the community coming together helping people and having that empathy with people who have these problems.” Murwillumbah’s Blake Colleton, a former professional motocross racer who became

a paraplegic after a race fall, said it was an “awesome organisation”. “The Charity Cup is a great fun day - what they do for everyone is just amazing,” 22-yearold Blake told The Weekly. “It helps out so many people and it keeps growing and growing and they keep helping more and more people,” “It’s amazing and I’d love to be able to help people out like that too by showing them that it’s about staying positive and looking ahead all the time, never looking backwards.” Blake said that he would use the Charity Cup money to go ‘sit-skiing’.

community strength

“I missed out last year when my mum (who was recently diagnosed with cancer) was going through chemotherapy and radiation. “It’s been hard on the family - she’s been there for me when I first injured myself and I wanted to be there for her.” There were pleas to give blood and Gary Ambrose spoke of how hard their journey to try to save daughter Caitlin had been and how amazed and grateful they were for the fundraising efforts of the whole community. Anna Bourne, whose tireless work for the Tweed Coast Raiders Junior Rugby League won her Volunteer of the Year at the Gold Coast Titans Community Awards, spoke of son Angus’ kidney failure. “We’re hopeful he will go in for a transplant soon (father Steve is the donor). “It’s the worst thing when your kids are sick and you can’t fix it.” Margaret Ford also spoke about their excitement at having a new home which includes an independent living unit for son Sam, much of it built from community donations from Sam’s Coming Home walk last year and help from the Charity Cup. Emily Greig spoke of their journey with son Cooper’s cerebral palsy - he had to be tube fed for his first years of life. “He’s now eating and drinking orally,” she said to rapturous applause. “He’s moving in leaps and bounds - he wants to be like every other five-year-old. “Last year we got him an iPad with the Charity Cup money so he can communicate now and we’ve learned that you’re a real smartarse,” Emily said to Cooper as the crowd erupted in laughter.

Simon Tate, whose brother James died suddenly in 2017, a knockout as MC, picked that theme up and ran with it for the night. He kept the laughter flowing in between the tears with a well-timed mix of black comedy about the challenges people were facing and politically incorrect banter including something about Oscar Pistorious, a dunny and a gun for 78-year-old amputee Ken Godkin who lost his leg after being scratched by a crab pot and being infected by Vibrio vulnificus bacteria. Mr Tate talked about his own depression after the loss of his brother and how hard it was to get up in the morning and keep going but how precious life is – saying at the end of the day love is the only thing that really matters and encouraging everyone to “hug the people you love and tell them that you love them”. Several of the organisers are Tweed Coast Raiders and Leanne Sharp, daughter of Les Burger, who built Les Burger Fields at Cabarita with the help of his children and the community, was there on the night. “I’ve known the boys (the organisers) since they were babies and my dad would be so happy to see this and so would mum if they were still with us,” she told The Weekly. “It’s amazing that they’ve come back to the club and all given their time to such a wonderful event. “Dad would be up there clapping his hands if he could have seen this, he would just love it. “The fact that the boys are here and they’re giving back to the community, he would just be overjoyed.” Kamilaroi Equestrian Centre has been struggling with the drought and is looking for volunteers to help out.

Basil needs help following nasty accident

By Jo Kennett

By Jo Kennett A FUNDRAISING page has been set up for a Cabarita family after their dog escaped its enclosure and was hit by a car at Norries Headland on Sunday, March 24. Basil, the black Labrador, is owned by Pieta Devine a single mother with two young children who runs a dog grooming business. Cabarita resident and all-round good guy Brad Evans took Basil to the Animal Emergency Centre at Varsity Lakes where he was diagnosed with a broken femur and four other fractures in the same leg, broken ribs (7-13) as well as cuts and bruising. Basil was transferred to an orthopaedic surgeon at Carrara where Pieta was told he needed surgery on his leg costing $5,500 on top of the initial fee of $1,600 - a total of $7,100. However, the surgeon couldn’t operate until the total amount was paid up front. A crowdfunding page has been started by Pieta’s friend, Jodie Perkinson, to help pay for the surgery, without which his leg will have to be amputated. “Basil is four years old and well known for loving food, stealing people’s breakfast at the local coffee shop - he stole three muffins in one go one day,” Pieta told The Weekly. “He loves to chase the bush turkeys and we have a cat called Sunny and those two just love each other. “We walk some friend’s dogs, so Basil has a gang he hangs out with. He’s so loyal, he is

always looking after the kids when we go to the beach and they are in the surf.” Pieta said she picked Basil up from the hospital on Tuesday morning. “They were going to do the operation at Carrara if I paid straight away but I don’t have that money,” she said. “Now we have a vet at Currumbin Fair Veterinary Clinic who is going to do the operation and he is confident that Basil will make a good recovery. “He’s a big boy and won’t go so well when he’s older if we have to amputate it because we can’t afford the fee. “We can pay the vet at Currumbin back and so he will have it tomorrow or the next day depending on when they can get the screws and plates. Pieta said the community had been “awesome”. “I cried at the reception desk at the Carrara hospital when I told them about the GoFundMe being set up and the receptionist cried as well and the vet said he’d been up at night thinking of other options for Basil but he couldn’t do anything about the up-front payment policy,” she said. “I can’t believe my old landlord came and gave me $100 - a lot of people have been offering their support and it’s really heartfelt. “It’s so nice for my kids to see the community reaching out and being so caring and supportive.” To help pay for Basil’s operation go to: https://tinyurl.com/y477qt9v

Solar Cuts Local Club’s Power Use in Half

advertisement

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

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

Volunteers needed to assist with Synergy Group’s outstanding efforts

By Jonathon Howard WHILE FINDING employment can be a difficult task when entering the workforce, spare a thought for those living with a disability who find it near impossible to get their foot in the door and to feel valued in the workplace. Fortunately, companies such as Synergy Group based at Tweed Heads South are providing an innovative platform for those living with a disability to join a committed team and feel valued. The Weekly editor Jonathon Howard recently took a tour of Synergy Group factory at 6 Parkside Drive where more than 50 employees have developed lasting relationships

in a dynamic working environment that values individual efforts and recognises them as a team. Synergy Group’s warehouse is a hive of activity with staff busy receiving new stock and the packing departments hard at work packing thousands of units per day. Synergy Group is part of Challenge Tweed Incorporated an Australian Disability Enterprise (ADE) and is supported by the National Disability Insurance Scheme (NDIS). The group provides residents with a disability the opportunity to create a fulfilling employment career in manufacturing and processing. There are several rooms spread through the warehouse with packing of products and receiving new stock taking place all day.

Loving their work at Synergy Group

The employees are a delight welcoming new people into the team and eager to talk about their experiences at Synergy Group through the friendships and positive working environment. The Weekly met with Synergy Group acting general manager Sarah Green who speaks highly of the group’s employees and sees a bright future ahead for the company. “Synergy Group prides itself on the quality service we provide to all in involved,” she said. “We offer adults with a lifelong disability employment opportunities and provide ongoing support, training and career development. Ms Green said the team get to work with exciting companies that require manual labour skills to develop their products which are sold around the nation and some are also exported. The Weekly met with several employees including Tabatha Sercombe who has worked for Synergy Group for the past 11 years. Tabatha said she loves working in the Synergy Group environment and has learnt a lot during the past decade. “It’s a great environment to work, it’s like a family network,” she said. Tabatha said the team enjoy regular visits from school students, who are often on placement or gaining work experience. Ms Green said students visit to gain vital work experience under the school’s special needs units and they will soon be taking TAFE student placements.

Some of the Synergy Group team members working the production line

“We aim to create a pathway to employment for these students as there are not many employment options for them in the community,” she said. “Our TAFE Students are also starting up with our first student joining us in the next few weeks.” A fully accredited trainer, Synergy Group also provide a platform for support workers to gain valuable work experience and pathways to employment. Ms Green said the area in need of addressing at Synergy Group was for more volunteers to assist in training and support roles. “We already have such a great team of volunteers who support our dedicated employees,” she said. “But we’re always appealing for more local volunteers to assist in support roles and help our employees to find their feet.”

If you would like to give back to the community and have a few hours free every week, Synergy Group would love to hear from you. To find out more contact Synergy Group on (07) 5523 4579 or visit their warehouse at 4/6 Parkside Drive, Tweed Heads South.

By Megan Albany NORCO CO-OPERATIVE Limited Director Greg McNamara has welcomed Aldi and Coles joining Woolworths in providing relief to dairy farmers with a temporary pricing increase but told The Weekly that a permanent increase and genuine reforms were still necessary. “It’s good news, it’s fantastic, however everyone assumes that the increase is across the board but it doesn’t cover every product,” Mr McNamara said. “The price has only increased on two and three litre milk products, but one litre and flavoured milk isn’t changing.” With the price increase only currently set to affect fresh milk, Mr McNamara said the whole range of dairy products needed to be included in price adjustments if there was to be real show of support for the struggling dairy industry. “It will be interesting if this flows right through the dairy cabinet like it needs to,” Mr McNamara said. “Fresh milk only accounts for between 25 and 28 percent of the industry as only 2.5 billion litres is consumed in the fresh milk format, but the industry has 8 to 8.5 billion litres of dairy in powders and cheese and other products.” Mr McNamara said despite the limitations to the price increase, the feeling on the ground was cautiously optimistic. “Our farmers are certainly now reasonably optimistic as before this there was a particular psyche which was affected by the dollar a litre price not changing for eight years, so for that change to occur and for the industry to recognise that a price adjustment was needed has been really good news. “We know the weather cycles have also improved dramatically and with more rain forecast in the next week we could see some

real benefits if these prices stick into the next financial year.” Despite the optimism, Mr McNamara warned that the supermarket pricing increases were only temporary, and that work was still needed to ensure genuine reforms for a sustainable dairy industry. “The thing everyone needs to be aware of is that this is just an interim price adjustment, Woolworths have promised the increase until the end of June and for Coles and Aldi this is an interim measure,” he said. “We need to get this as a permanent move in the market. “To be in line with regulations we will need to set our milk price for the next financial year before the first of June and so the industry will need to negotiate prices with the retailers between now and the end of May.” While the increase has broken the drought of milk price increases, Mr McNamara said it was important that any reforms were ongoing and incremental to protect against any future price stagnation. “The reform we are looking for is sustainable milk prices with increases from time to time to meet cost increases at farm levels,” he said. “At 65 to 70 cents a litre we are moving towards a sustainable industry but we need

President of the Tweed District Rescue Squad (TDRS) Drew Carr told The Weekly he did not see the patient because she was winched out before he got near her. "Which was greatly appreciated due to the hot and humid conditions, but the reports from other walkers was that she was in a lot of pain,” he said. “We had about seven crew up to the scene, she was above heli point four and her friends got her there but by the time we got to heli point one which is 1.3km we got the news that she had been lifted out. “We’re pretty happy that we haven't had too many rescues and we are happy that the community and visitors seem to be taking all the precautions necessary for the trek up.”

LOCAL RESCUE services were called into action following a fall near the top of Wollumbin Mount Warning at about 10am on Sunday, March 24. Tweed District Rescue Squad said a female hiker had sustained an ankle injury whilst hiking the mountain. “Crews started the trek up with our rickshaw frame and a stokes litter for the extrication,” a statement from the Rescue Squad said. “Fortunately, whilst in the early stages of the ascent, NSW Ambulance had approved extrication of the patient via the Westpac Life Saver Rescue Helicopter.” Rescue Squad members said the patient was reportedly near the helipoint four platform. “Had crews been required to carry off the patient it would have needed up to 30 personnel to successfully complete the rescue,” the Rescue Squad said. Also on attendance were officers from TweedByron Police District, NSW Ambulance paramedics and the Westpac Life Saver Rescue Helicopter.

Tweed flood recovery strong

After school care brings smile to kids

By Megan Albany WHILE FOR many working parents, putting their kids into Out of School Hours care (OOSH) is a necessity for their employment, for some disadvantaged families it can also provide a way for their kids to get welcome time out from stressful situations. Tweed Shire Vacation Care Director, Claire Ashton has been in the sector for thirteen years and told The Weekly that OOSH is now an integral part of supporting families under pressure. “In our service in particular we are getting a lot more families from disadvantaged and domestic violence backgrounds as we get funding to have these families attend. “Out of school care is very important considering some of the things these families go through. “It’s nice for the children to come here and to just be able to be a child, regardless of what’s going on at home they can enjoy what’s being offered here. “We’re also here for the families as well and we can be an extra ear to listen to them. “It helps families knowing their children are safe and having fun.” Ms Ashton said the centre will be celebrating its 35th anniversary later this year and that having experienced staff on board enabled the centre to cater for children from diverse backgrounds. “Over time we can see changes in the children,” she said. “Kids from a domestic violence background can be quite angry or very quiet and it takes time for them to settle in but then you can see them come out of their shells and start having fun and it’s really good to see a child being a child. “We’ve got experienced staff here, so we are quite used to dealing with families and children from different backgrounds and with additional needs.”

For some children, their time at the centre has been so rewarding that they have come back to the centre as adults. “We now have two staff that were originally enrolled as children at the centre and they ended up working here,” Ms Ashton said. “They see what it’s like to be in the centre from both sides now and they will sometimes say I used to do that and now I’m actually working here.” These school holidays Tweed Shire Vacation Care will be offering a range of vacation care activities ranging from a Fly-A-Kite day to traditional Indigenous games. “We also have an AFL sports clinic, hip hop dancing, tennis coaching, a day at Movie World and we’ve got an ocean stars marine interactive education day where the kids get to touch live starfish,” she said. With school holidays fast approaching Ms Ashton said many working parents were now starting to book into the centre which looks after around 50 children during the holidays. “We have children who just come in casual but we also have our regular customers and they sometimes all go to different schools so they really look forward to meeting up with their vacation care friends in the holidays.” For more infor mation or to book i n f o r v a c a t i o n c a r e v i s i t w w w. tweedshirevacationcare.com

“We now have implemented flood procedures and early warning procedures, which we used recently during the early warnings for cyclone Omar.” Tweed Shire Council faced a mountain of work to overcome the impact to local roads, crossings and council infrastructure. But Council has recovered after two years and the final project at Byrill Creek Bridge is set to be complete in the coming weeks. Mayor Katie Milne said some members of the community have bounced back really well and some are still recovering. “It’s important to remember that people are still suffering from that event,” she said. “We are trying to prepare for those sorts of floods in the future.” Mayor Milne said she was interested in posting new flood markets around the shire. “I am interested in raising a motion to have flood markers around the shire to indict the flood levels,” she said. “Council has been doing a lot of work preparing to handle a future flood event. “We will be in a much better place to respond to future floods. “We also need to acknowledge those people still dealing with the mental health impacts of the flood and recognise the healing process.” Murwillumbah & District Business Chamber president Karissa Ball said the chamber recognises the local Tweed Valley people and the organisations that contributed so much to the community-led recovery. “The community spirit and the hard work by so many, in the aftermath of the flood will never be forgotten,” she said. “The mud army was inspirational in taking charge of the recovery right from the very first hours it was possible. “We recognise the role of all the local organisations that provided leadership in so many aspects of the recovery, and we are grateful to Tweed Shire Councillors and council staff, and local contractors.”

By Jonathon Howard IT HAS been two years this Sunday, March 31, since the devastating impact of the 2017 Tweed flood. A flood that few thought possible rose in a matter of hours after more than 700mm of rain fall over the catchment in less than 24 hours and the result left many families and businesses reeling. But Tweed Shire residents have shown their strength and resilience as many businesses have now recovered. The Weekly spoke with two local businesses heavily impacted by the flood including Shoobridge Transport and O’Connors Carrying Service in the South Murwillumbah industrial estate. Both companies have bounced back from the headache and heartache of the flood, but they will never forget with new flood plans in place. Shoobridge Transport owner Peter Shoobridge said it has been a challenge for the business during the past two years. “But the business has recovered well, and we’ve experienced some steady growth,” he said. “We are grateful to have experienced that growth which has helped see us through the cost of the flood.” Mr Shoobridge said the company has also implemented a new flood mitigation plan and evacuation plan. “We have also implemented some mitigation and moved some sensitive equipment as well as a flood action plan,” he said. “All in all it’s been a positive recovery for the business.” O’Connors Carrying Service owner Paul O’Connor said although he’s still fighting with his insurance company, the company has bounced back. “We’re business as usual today and we’ve continued to experience some steady growth,” he said.

too. Why are their eggs so great? As Fabian and Jodie said “the hen’s days are jam-packed pecking, scratching and creating wonderful dirt day spas, in shady hide-aways. They also love selecting from a fresh smorgasbord of bugs, insects and pastures, as they move around daily. In addition, we serve up a nutritionally balanced soy free mash daily and provide a constant source of fresh water to ensure the optimum health and happiness for our hens.” This week we are welcoming our week four pop-up stall White Wallaby Farm located at Limpinwood. Bron and David Hancox are bringing products that are based on their vast and expanding range of culinary herbs. These are grown using an integrated approach and include dried herbs in herbal salts and peppers, infused vinegars and a range of culinary herb blends. Coming soon – New season pecan nuts from Tweed River Pecans. Kaye and David and all pecan farmers are patiently watching the new seasons nuts as they ripen. When the husks split open like this (see the photo and visit our website and Facebook page for more details) the pecans are mature and ready to drop.

Volunteers needed to join Wedgetail team

By Jonathon Howard TWEED PALLIATIVE Support (TPS) and Wedgetail Retreat are calling for new volunteers during its annual intake with 20 big-hearted locals needed to assist in a rewarding and fulfilling environment. Tweed Shire locals are encouraged to apply now with full-time training provided over nine weeks every Tuesday starting from April 9 to June 18 (9.30am to 3pm). Long-time volunteer Autumn Camidge said she would encourage anyone interested in contributing to their community in a unique and rewarding way to call TPS office and apply for the training program. “Places are limited so please apply now,” she said. A long-term Tweed Palliative Support volunteer and since the early beginnings of TPS, Autumn has been responsible for recruiting and training new volunteers. “The commitment and compassion of our volunteers has always inspired me and my life continues to be enriched and enlivened by my involvement with TPS team,” she said. “Being part of TPS is a great opportunity to give back and yet all volunteers say that they actually get back more than they give.” Autumn said volunteer carers play a vital role in keeping Wedgetail Retreat’s doors open. “We need several volunteers every day to help the nurses care for Wedgetail guests as well as volunteers to support our clients out in the community,” she said. “ N ew vo l u n t e e r s c a n b e c o m e ambassadors for palliative care by raising awareness in our community

though being involved in TPS projects and fundraising events. “Just feeling more inclined and comfortable to have conversations with friends and family about living and dying is a great outcome from the training program.” Fellow volunteer Rhona has assisted TPS for the past 17 years and has met many fabulous people along the way. “I have also spent many years as a volunteer in the TPS office and as a member of the management committee,” she said. “Presently my role is keeping our beautiful Wedgetail Hospice sparkling clean as well as helping with caring for our guests. “It is a privilege to help people when they are vulnerable. “My training helped me understand what palliative care was all about and it was a great experience.” Another volunteer Inga said she enjoys the flexibility of the volunteer role and being valued as a team member.

“I volunteer one morning every week and find that working at Wedgetail I meet beautiful people and have the privilege of helping them at their most vulnerable time,” she said. “It is almost one year since I completed the TPS training and I did enjoy that training where I met the nicest people and could reconnect with my experience of ages ago. “I had not thought about many of the issues that we discussed for a very long time. I did think the training was very professional yet friendly.” Mukti has been a volunteer carer for several years said she feels very privileged to be preparing delicious food for Wedgetail guests. “The warm smells of good food floating through the house is an important part of the home atmosphere at the hospice,” she said. “I love working here with the nurses and fellow volunteers, it’s a great team.” To find out more, or to book your place, please phone the Tweed Palliative Support team on (02) 6672 8459.

Health One model possible for The Tweed Hospital By Jonathon Howard NORTHERN NSW Local Health District is assessing options for future health services at Tweed Heads once the Tweed Valley Hospital opens. The HealthOne model, which is currently being used at Pottsville, is one model being proposed which outlines the integration of community health, general practice services and oral health in one facility. However, under the HealthOne model there is no emergency department and there would be less specialist services than the current Tweed Hospital. Speculation about the future of The Tweed Hospital has continued since the announcement of the Cudgen plateau as the preferred site for the new Tweed Valley Hospital, with many Tweed Heads residents concerned around what health services they may lose. Member for Tweed Geoff Provest has previously told The Weekly that he is hopeful the emergency department at The Tweed Hospital will remain in place. However, there has been no determination on the future of the site of the ageing hospital, which is relied on by many Tweed Heads residents for both emergencies and treatment. NNSWLHD Chief Executive Wayne Jones told The Weekly that planning is underway to determine the range of health services which will continue to be provided in Tweed Heads after the new $534 million Tweed Valley hospital opens. “We are focussed on working closely with health providers and partners to develop the right mix of health services that will support ongoing patient needs in the Tweed Heads area,” he said. “A HealthOne model is among the options being considered to deliver a range of community health and other outreach services to the community in Tweed Heads and the surrounding areas.”

You could have a balance or ves�bular disorder Congratulations to Dr Braga, this month marks her one year anniversary here at King Street Dental! We are very glad to have you on our team!! Your service to the community has been commendable as you have always kept patient satisfaction as your priority! You always make us smile with your good vibes. You truly are an asset to our team!

BALANCE is easily taken for granted. However when the fragile ves�bular organs of the inner ear and brain are damaged by illness or injury, anyone can lose their ability to balance.

T

o achieve good physical balance, we rely on our brain, eyes, innerear, and musculoskeletal system to work in harmony.

Balance disorders are typically under diagnosed and undertreated. More than 1/3 of adults aged 40 years and older experience vestibular dysfunction at some point in their lives. Common symptoms of vestibular disorders include vertigo and dizziness. Vertigo is a spinning or whirling sensation, or an illusion of the self or world moving. Dizziness is a lightheaded, floating or rocking sensation. Poor balance, nausea, visual disturbances, headache, hearing loss, tinnitus, and pain or fullness in the ears can accompany vestibular disorders.

HOW CAN YOUR OSTEOPATH HELP? There are many causes of dizziness or vertigo. But most types of vestibular disorders can be diagnosed by means of a thorough medical history and clinical examination. The most common type of vertigo is Benign Paroxysmal Positional Vertigo (BPPV), and once diagnosed is easily treated with repositioning manoeuvres, with a success rate of 90%. (Silva, 2014). Another type of vertigo encountered is Cervicogenic Vertigo, which is due to a dysfunction in the neck. Again once diagnosed, it can be easily treated with Osteopathic intervention. Your Osteopath can diagnose most of the common types of vestibular disorders and can either treat the condition or refer on for further diagnosis and treatment. Dr Rudi Gerhardt B.Sc., D.O.

Daylight saving could drop a month By Jonathon Howard TWEED SHIRE clocks are set to be wound back an hour for the end of daylight saving on Sunday, April 7, at 3am, with re-elected Member for Tweed Geoff Provest saying he’s still adamant that daylight saving time needs to end a month earlier. The Weekly has received several letters and calls in relation to daylight saving “running too long” with several residents highlighting it could “easily end a month earlier”. Mr Provest shares these views and raised a private members bill in early 2017 calling for daylight saving to end earlier - but said he could not find the numbers to support his bill. “Unfortunately, when I raised the bill, I did not receive enough support from both my party and the opposition to put it to a vote,” he said. “However, I still believe strongly that daylight saving drags on a month too long, especially for places such as the Tweed which is a twin city at the border.” Mr Provest said he was again contemplating raising the bill for a vote but remains concerned about finding support. Crystal Creek resident Michael Sharpe wrote to The Weekly with several questions and calls to reduce the length of daylightsavings. “How many people are thrilled to have daylight saving end?” he said. “Everyone I think this year, especially after long hot day, many sleep deprived, cranky, mums and dads, friends and workers. “The scheme may be ideal for the UK or ever European countries, where days are short and cold is severe, but Australia? “Please can anyone in authority answer these simple questions: Who wants six months of daylight savings? Who asked the people, did they want six months of daylight saving? Why do we need to wander around

in the dark of a morning to go to work, kids to school? “Why does a very hot Australia need daylight savings, with its heat and long days of sunshine? Why are we being treated like the cold European countries? Why does it only seem to benefit the commercial world? “If daylight savings is needed, not just wanted for commercial greed, three months, please?” Daylight saving was permanently introduced in NSW following a referendum held in May 1976. Voters in NSW decided to adopt daylight saving between the last Sunday in October and the first Sunday in March. This time period has been extended on several occasions by the NSW Parliament and currently applies between the first Sunday in October and the first Sunday in April – an extra two months to that originally accepted by NSW residents. YOUR THOUGHTS: Do you believe we could do without the final month of daylight savings? Or do you believe it should remain as it is? Send your thoughts and letters to editor@theweekly.net.au

Mr Provest is keen to wind back daylight saving

Blossom is in the main image and is the older of the three with Bear and Flora huddled (inset)

Three possums spared a grim fate By Rachael Lebeter Meet these three baby ringtail cuties, possums or joeys, Blossom, Flora and Bear. They are healthy and growing, thanks to the work of locals and Tweed Valley Wildlife Carers (TVWC). All three of these joeys were orphaned, but fast-acting residents noted that something was wrong and called the TVWC’s Animal Rescue Hotline. Blossom was found alone, on the ground. Poor Flora was trying to climb a horse’s leg, so can probably count herself lucky that she wasn’t stepped on. Bear’s story is the most tragic – he was found on the ground and a dead adult ringtail was found at a neighbouring house. Unlike the larger brush-tailed possums, adult ringtails are only 30-35 cm long. They are small enough that even the adults are preyed on by cats and dogs, making it important to keep pets inside at night. Bear, Blossom and Flora all came into care weighing less than 100 grams. At this size, the joeys would have just begun to emerge from their mothers’ pouches. They require four feeds of special marsupial milk per day and lots of care from a very dedicated, sleep-deprived, TVWC carer.

Because animals in care become lonely and ringtail possums live in groups, we were lucky that the three joeys could be bonded. Bear and Flora have been together since their first week in care and are inseparable. Blossom is slightly older and a later addition to the drey (possum nest) but she gets on just fine. In fact, Blossom is big enough that Bear sometimes tries to ride on her back, as if she were his mother. Bear, Blossom and Flora now weigh around 180 grams and have two feeds of milk per day and eat lots of native leaves. Ringtail possums are actually related to koalas and have a similar diet. They eat mainly eucalypt as well as other native species such as lilly pilly, acacia and callistemon. Ringtails are quiet night guests and rarely raid fruit trees or eat garden plants. Blossom, Bear and Flora will stay in care until they reach about 600 grams and are big enough to be released into the wild. They are lucky because they will be released together, in a family group. This helps them survive and reduces stress. Watch this space to find out how Bear, Blossom and Flora go in the coming months. Remember if you find a stricken animal please call TVWC on: (02) 6672 4789.

You can make a big difference to your skin by making some small changes to your diet. For example, many of us still don’t drink enough water and this can cause skin to become dry and flaky. Drinking 2 litres of filtered water per day (8 x 250ml glasses) is an essential way to protect your skin from succumbing to autumn dullness.

If you aren’t already taking an organic food supplement, autumn is a great time to begin. superfood gives your immune system a much-needed pre-winter boost, it also works wonders to hydrate, smooth and protect your skin

Newly elected MP Janelle Saffin wins Lismore seat after closely fought battle Lismore and the first Labor MP for Lismore in more than 50 years. “I am pleased to have both mantles but even more pleased to be, simply, your State MP,” she said. “It is an honour to represent one’s own community and that is what Murwillumbah and the Tweed Valley are to me now. “I got to know so many people during the campaign and to see many great things happening and will get to know even more now. “I shall represent all as strongly as I can, to be able to deliver the services and other things that we all need. “I made commitments during the election as did the Nationals who with the Liberals have formed the NSW Government. “I shall write to the respective Ministers and remind them of their commitments to our community and advocate the delivery of them. “I shall of course advocate the commitments I made as well, as they reflect the community’s priorities. “I shall hold the government to account to deliver for us.” It was a hard-fought defeat for Lismore farmer and Nationals candidate Austin Curtin said he was disappointed with the result but happy with the support he has received. “Firstly, I want to offer my congratulations to Janelle Saffin, who looks set to become the next Member for Lismore,” he told The Weekly. “While this isn’t the outcome we wanted, or the one we worked so hard for, we have to respect

the decision of the voters of our electorate. “I want to thank everyone who voted for me, for The Nationals and for our vision for this region. “I am proud of the campaign we ran, and I want to thank the 250 local volunteers we had on the ground on Saturday and throughout the campaign. “I am extremely proud to have been part of the state-wide campaign to ensure The Nationals can continue to deliver for the people of rural and regional NSW, and I’m excited by what the next four years will hold.” Mr Curtin said he was particularly proud to have been able to assist in securing vital flood mitigation funding for Lismore and said he will continue to “fight for this, and other important local projects”. “I remain committed to the values I shared with the people throughout this campaign: stronger families make stronger communities and a stronger region,” he said. “I want to offer my special thanks to my family, who put up with me running around like a headless chook sometimes, all the long hours and meetings and phone conferences and travel here, there and everywhere. “Our families go through this campaign with us, and I’m so thankful to have had their loving support. “While we may not have won this seat, I want to make it clear that the National Party in this area is stronger than ever before.”

Lismore MP Janelle Saffin around the start of her campaign in November 2018 with former Prime Minister Kevin Rudd

“Nearly forty per cent of people voted number one for Austin or The Nationals, showing his advocacy and the party’s brand in the Northern Rivers is strong; I thank you for that show of support. “My disappointment of course is the Lismore Electorate now does not have a strong voice around the Government table. “Since the Liberals and Nationals were elected into Government in 2011 that voice has certainly been reflective in what has been achieved and delivered.” “I finally want to congratulate the Labor Party and Janelle Saffin on winning the seat.”

Retired MP for Lismore Thomas George heaped praise on Mr Curtin. “It’s been an honour and a privilege to have represented the Lismore Electorate for the past twenty years, not only as the Member but as Deputy Speaker,” Mr George said. “I want to take this opportunity to thank those who over the years have supported my family and I, The Nationals and the NSW Government. “At this time, I struggle to find the words which truly express my gratitude and appreciation of Austin Curtin and his wife Bronwyn and family, for their tireless contribution over such a long campaign.

By Jonathon Howard THERE WERE congratulations all round for the newly elected State Member for Lismore Janelle Saffin, who is also Lismore’s first female MP. Mrs Saffin told The Weekly that she had received a telephone call from Nationals candidate Austin Curtin on Tuesday, March 20, congratulating her on becoming the Member for Lismore. “Austin was gracious, as was I in return,” she said. “I know how tough elections are and how much effort the candidates, our families and our supporters put into the campaigns - elections are not for the faint hearted.” Ms Saffin said the burning question she’s being asked is “how difficult will it be for you being in the opposition?” “I said there would be challenges but no more than retiring member Thomas George faced when he was our MP and in opposition for twelve years,” she said. “People have asked me what I shall do first. “My response has been to say lots of thank you messages and to be present in all areas this week, and thereafter, with Murwillumbah on Friday, March 29. “I want to meet as many local organisations as I can and visit local small business people starting in the CBD. “I do not have access to an office as yet, but I shall work on that over the next few weeks.” Ms Saffin is the first woman to represent the people of the

at the Footy with Quinny PARRAMATTA WON only six games last year and have notched two impressive victories from two starts already in 2019. Big Fergy is on fire on the wing and King Gutho is going great for the Eels. Tougher game this week against a Luke Keary led Roosters will give the lads from the west a real tough game. Keary put on a first half masterclass in the wet against the Eagles on the weekend. He played tough, smart and executed fantastically. It was a real top level performance and set up the victory for them. Speaking of quality performances Robbie Farah is defying father time and is playing beautiful footy. He leads the Dally M’s early with two Man of the Match performances, maybe I should come out of retirement again if he can play that good at that age! Farah is steering a clinical ship at the Tigers at the moment that has the Michael Maguire blueprint of footy all over it. Tough through the middle, simple shifts and high completion rates with a rock solid defensive system. I gave the Dragons a wrap at the start of the year but they are gone early. Widdop slates the coach publicly in the press conference, they make five changes to get one bloke on the field and their two best forwards at out indefinitely. The Broncos looked great last year on the back of Tevita Pangai Jr he was unstoppable. It was a super performance, will be interesting to see if he turns out in Blue this year. Tonga is close to NSW i’m sure. I hope he does, I would love to see him in the Origin arena as he is born for it.

Wins for all the local NRRRL teams on the weekend with Raiders towelling Northern United, Cudgen defeating Marist (called the game off early due to the heat) and Murwillumbah sneaking home against Evans down there. A big congratulations to all involved at the Colts last week hosting the Conaghan Shield. A massive day on what was an extremely hot weekend and was great to see all the young budding stars getting stuck into it. Cudgen host the International 9’s this weekend for 13’s 16’s in what should be another great day of footy before the season kicks off. Good luck to the Northern Rivers Titans u/16’s this weekend as they head to Foster to take on Penrith in the semi final of the Andrew Johns Cup. See you at the footy, Quinny

Thousands attend Colts Club ground for John Conaghan Memorial Shield

Tweed Heads Seagulls Junior Rugby League

MORE THAN 3,500 people converged on the Murwillumbah Colts Club grounds at the Brother’s Leagues Club for a day of exciting junior footy on Saturday, March 23. Colts Club president Daniel Gray said there was a total of 110 junior rugby league games played with 82 teams from across under 6s to under 12s. “It was a very successful day from all our volunteers and helpers,” he said. “A big thank you to Tweed Shire Council for allowing us to use the carpark, which solved the problems of congested roads from previous years. “We had previous issues with cars being parked around the surrounding streets, but thanks to Council we had a ten-acre space to use as a car park to assist on the day.” Mr Gray said Tugun took out the John Conaghan Memorial Shield which has been running for almost 40 years in Murwillumbah every year. “The event was attended by Brad, Terry and Danny Conaghan, who selected man of the matches for the 10s, 11s and 12s grand final,” he said. “It was an extremely hot day, but clear conditions made for great football. “We’re now just looking for more kids to come and sign on to play rugby league in a great family friendly environment. “Our official launch of the Colts season is on Friday, April 5, at Brother’s Leagues Club with all supporters and sponsors welcome. We will also be unveiling to 2019 gear. “Lions Club of Murwillumbah will also be donating a cheque for $2,000 to go towards underprivileged youth of the Tweed.” To find out more, including to sign up for footy this year, please phone Mr Gray on: 0418 751 765.

Shanrong teaching Chinese script at Harmony Day

Harmony Day a success

IT WAS a sea of colour at Harmony Day celebrations at Kingscliff TAFE, with performers from across the globe turning out in traditional dress on Saturday, March 23. Harmony Day was run by the Tweed Multicultural Group, in conjunction with Safer Communities Alliance Inc and Kingscliff Farmers Market and organiser Kristie Hedley said they had a great turn out. “It was busy, being a polling booth,” she said. “It was our second year partnering with the markets and we knew that combo worked really well. “Aunty Jacky from the Aboriginal Land Council did a welcome to country and Happy Africa Art, a band from Mullumbimby, played all morning and created a really nice chilled vibe. “We had kids’ activities from Hoopla circus and Karma Kids around a Harmony Day theme.” There was food from around the world and cultural dance performances. “One of my lovely Chinese students from TAFE did a dance from her region, the Xinjiang Uygur in the north west of China near Turkistan and Pakistan,” Ms Hedley said. “We had Pacifika Breeze - the local South Sea Island group - with the Togo family. “We had Hawaiian performances of Hula, a big Samoan group with males and females of all ages down to young babies dressed in traditional costumes and that was fantastic - the performance was really vocal and entertaining.” After each group performed they went into the Language and Craft Lab where they had activities to teach children and parents. “That was really successful and the Samoan group Aiga made lolly necklaces with leaves interwoven with lollies,” Ms Hedley said. “My Chinese student Shanrong taught how to write Chinese script. The kids loved that. “The Hawaiian lady taught some traditional language but she’s studying Auslan at Tafe so she also taught them some basic greetings and phrases in sign language.” Ms Hedley said they had really good feedback about the day. “Families in particular really loved their kids being exposed to all these different cultural experiences and said they wished there was more of it,” she said. “It’s all about celebrating our differences and given what’s happening recently to our brothers and sisters in New Zealand we felt it was very timely to have this conversation now and just reaffirm that we are a multicultural country and we need to respect each other and love each other.”

Plant spirit medicine

KINESIOLOGY ENCOMPASSES holistic health disciplines which use the gentle art of muscle monitoring to access information about a person’s well-being.

Kinesiology uses muscle testing to access and gain information to help your body, mind and spirit to restore balance in your life

Originating in the 1970s, Kinesiology combines Western techniques and Eastern wisdom to promote physical, emotional, mental and spiritual health. Kinesiology identifies the elements which inhibit the body’s natural internal energies and access the life enhancing potential within the individual.” 81637

She intuitively knows just how to tune in to the individuals’ process and support them in their gentle breakthrough. The presentation and implementation of the Breathwork information was impeccable. The support and guidance was 100%. I would recommend this course to absolutely anyone who is serious about releasing trauma on a cellular level and

The material was presented in a professional and well thought out manner. The structure provided a container for the students to feel safe to unravel and work through suppressed life and birth trauma. Cacey’s knowledge and her obvious embodiment of that knowledge is a

powerful catalyst for healing and release.

Kinesiology balances the body on many levels. Its effective results come from the

way it works with the body’s innate healing intelligence to restore balance and health to neurological and physiological function. Through this modality, profound changes may be experienced emotionally, mentally and physically, thereby increasing a person’s health and wellbeing. The real goal of any Kinesiology ‘balance’ is to identify the bottom-line cause of any imbalance and then resolve it. It may be nutritional, emotional, structural, psychological, energetic or even spiritual - something as simple as an ‘attitude’, or a forgotten memory.

HEALING THROUGH Colour and Nature is available for all ages of people at Healing Art Gallery in Kingscliff. Colour is a form of a light vibration which we can take in through the eyes and absorb through the skin. Most of the works on show tap into chi energy, connecting to tiny power points that have been channelled from a higher source into a form of magnetic healing. Every individual colour flow resonates and responds with the chakra system. In eastern philosophy every energy wheel connects to the glands and the organs that are found within the body of mankind. If there is a blockage, an imbalance or a stressed chakra - usually a physical ailment can be diagnosed. The chakras connect also to the mental, emotional, spiritual and lastly physical plane of the body. How does this work? On observation by viewing any of the art works, you will be attracted by the subconscious mind, as this sits outside of the body which does not interact with the ego. You will be drawn to the colours that the body needs for healing. For example;

If you have been run down in energy, brighter hues of colour may inspire you for a top up, as these are high in frequency that will make you feel alive! If you have been stressed, then calming colours will help to create a relaxing and a conducive healing environment to unwind the mind. Bright colours will make you feel happy, warm, uplifted and cheery as the laws of light are higher in frequency. Darker shades of colour can make you feel suppressed, cold, pessimistic, glum, moody and distant, as the metaphysical light laws are lower in vibration which have no healing qualities that can support the body system. As an earth being, we need the whole spectrum of the rainbow light to maintain harmony, inner wellness and balance. Come to see for yourself as an experiment, you may get a surprise with a magical feeling!

The Aries Star Sign

March 21 to April 19

Element – Fire As the first sign in the zodiac, the presence of Aries always marks the beginning of something energetic and turbulent. Belonging to the element of fire, Aries is one of the most active zodiac signs. It is in their nature to take action, sometimes before they think about it well. They can be reckless and determined and let nothing stand in their way once they have made up their mind on achieving something important to them. They’ve got heaps of physical energy and are very competitive. They have to come first in everything. If they don’t, they’ll let you know what a bad loser they are. Never tell an Aries they’re wrong either. They become dangerous. They make fantastic

mates, great leaders and good politicians. Energetic and cheerful at work, an Aries has everyone wanting to be involved in their ideas. They are willing to make huge financial sacrifices for their families and they can put up with relatives living with them as long as this leaves them free to do their own thing. They possess youthful strength and energy, regardless of their age and quickly perform any given tasks. The strengths of an Aries are being courageous, determined, confident, enthusiastic, optimistic, honest and passionate. Their weaknesses are sometimes being impatient, moody, short-tempered, impulsive and aggressive.

By Megan Albany AFTER WINNING the Byron All Shorts Audience Award for Best Short Film, Burringbar resident Krista Werner’s short film was recently featured as part of the National Tour of Flickerfest. The film was chosen from over 2,700 entries before being included in Australia’s leading Academy Accredited and BAFTA recognised short film festival. The first-time filmmaker’s film, Foil Man, was part of the festival’s Best of Australian Shorts programme. Ms Werner, whose film chronicles the story of an alien who arrives in the Northern Rivers, said she was delighted to be included in the prestigious festival. “It was a huge surprise, and I was happy just for my film to get into the festival and I certainly wasn’t expecting to win an award,” she said. “At the premier everyone was laughing in all the right spots and I was getting a lot of great comments including that the cinematography was beautiful.” The film was inspired by the Tweed region and shot in and around Burringbar and Murwillumbah. “I love Mt Warning, it’s so beautiful and special and the rainforest here in Burringbar is really beautiful, so it was our magical landscape that really inspired me to make my film.” The film features not only local landscapes but was also produced with the help of Tweed actors and crew. “It was a full collaboration with the local community and everyone from the sound technicians and musicians through to the

actors were local apart from the actor who played the alien who was from Melbourne.” Ms Werner said despite this being her first attempt at film making, that she enjoyed learning all aspects of the art form. “I’ve always been immersed in the arts doing something creative including oil painting and photography, so my film was an extension of that,” she said. “I wrote the script, did the cinematography, worked as the director and producer and then did the rough draft and initial cut. “I had someone that did the sound and music for me as well as help with the finer editing.” Like most independent short films, Foil Man was shot on a self-funded shoestring budget. “I believe in doing what you love and putting everything into your passion so I funded the film with my credit card - it was extremely low budget,” she laughed. “Getting Foil Man into a festival like Flickerfest and then getting an award for it makes me feel like I’ve already been paid back for my time and everything I put into it.” Flickerfest’s Short Laughs Comedy programme also featured a Northern Rivers filmmaker in Dolls, a comedy short where a group of dolls initiate an emotional break-up in an attempt to escape a toxic relationship.

Richard Williams – Timpanist

or this concer t we highlight the role of Richard Williams, one of the core musicians in the Northern Rivers Symphony Orchestra who has been performing in our percussion section for over a decade. The veteran timpanist is also a committee member and stage manager – he is always there to perform the arduous task of setting up the stage before every concert and packing up afterwards. Here, we ask Richard to tell us a little bit about himself:

as their principal timpanist under the late conductor, Colin Harper, until his death in 2004. I moved to Tweed Heads and was invited to play solo timpani for the Northern Rivers Symphony Orchestra under its founder, Barry Singh, in a rehearsal for a Gala concert. Barry was happy with my playing and offered me the position as solo timpanist for the NRSO. I have been playing in the NRSO for some 15 years now and still am enjoying doing so even at my age of 72. Music keeps me young!

1) How did you decide to become a timpani player? At age 13 my mother took me to an orchestral concert of The St Louis Symphony Orchestra. I was immediately fascinated with the percussion players, especially the timpani player. The timpanist was considered the solo position in the orchestra and I soon found out why. The timpanist plays similar notes as the trumpet and string bass players, and is very dominant in a lot of classical pieces of music by all the great composers. I got private lessons from the late great Rholand Koloff who was the solo timpanist for the New York Philharmonic for over 30 years. I still watch him on YouTube playing in Fanfare for the Common Man by Aaron Copeland with the New York Philharmonic conducted by James Levine. It is well worth the watching of as he was considered one of the greatest. 2) When did you arrive in the Tweed region and how did you find the NRSO? I had been performing with Queensland Pops Orchestra in Brisbane for 23 years

3) Tell us about one of your favourite classical pieces that you like to perform and why is it special? My favourite classical pieces are the symphonies of Gustav Mahler as they use a lot of percussion, especially the timpani with all of its potential nuances. The first piece of music I ever performed as principal timpanist was with the California Youth Symphony Orchestra, playing Hec tor Berlioz’s Symphonie Fantastique at the War Memorial Opera House of San Francisco when I was just 16 years of age. The interesting thing is that Berlioz used the timpani to portray the sounds of thunder for the storm scene in his symphony. The same sounds are required for the upcoming NRSO concert in Beethoven’s “Pastoral Symphony”, in which I will play the timpani thunder sounds during a storm scene in the 3rd movement. The upcoming NRSO concert PASTORAL INTERLUDE will be performed on Sunday 7th April, 2.30pm at the Tweed Heads Civic Centre conducted by Dr Warwick Potter.

Of course we also do a couple of waltzes and a fox trot. “Some more complicated but most are easy enough for beginners to have a go.” The Tweed Ball Series takes place over nine halls throughout the season with the

We also have male competitors, so Damian Dundon is our current Senior Beau and we have tiny tot, junior and senior categories as well.” The next dances in the series will take place on April 14 at Bilambil Hall and April 21 at Tumbulgum Hall at 8pm with tickets available at the door.

Last year’s documentary Mountain described in a poetic and philosophical way the obsession that some humans have in climbing heights. In Free Solo this obsession is narrowed down to an individual, Alex Honnold, a young man with a specific dream; climbing without a rope the one kilometre high mountain El Capitan in Yosemite National Park. The audience will feel almost as one with him while watching the documentary, made with cutting edge technology – including drones, remoteoperated rigs etc – that effectively strap audiences together with Alex as he claws his way up the perpendicular face of the mountain with nothing to protect him in case of a fall. Free climbing, or “Soloing”, is an extreme sport not for the faint hearted, and El Capitan is the most difficult mountain wall to climb, featuring some particular spots where the climber has to almost jump from one location to another. El Capitan has already claimed the lives of several climbers who have attempted to conquer it. The documentary’s purpose is to not only show the audience what Alex does, but also why he does it, the environment he comes from and the anguish mixed with support that he manages to cause and get from his family and friends. Even the filmmakers themselves – a husband and wife team who become friends with Alex in the process of preparing the documentary – are portrayed agonizing on whether they may end up filming the death of their friend rather than his triumph. Get ready to be on the edge of your seat throughout the screening of this remarkable film…!

By Megan Albany FOR THE PAST 48 years Tweed locals have been putting on their dancing shoes to take part in social dancing in the Tweed’s many community halls. Tweed Combined Country Halls Association Inc Secretary and Public Officer Robyn Lemaire told The Weekly she has firsthand experience of the social benefits of the Tweed Ball Series. “I myself met my husband at the Chillingham Ball in 1998,” Ms Lemaire said. “I was going outside for a break and he was sitting by the door as I came back in. “We sat and spoke for a while and then had a dance together on the dance floor.” Ms Lemaire said that while there was no guarantee of finding romance let alone a husband, the social dancing tradition was still a great way of bringing the community and families together. “It’s a great social event with a delicious supper and live music and it keeps you relatively fit while being social at the same time,” she said. Ms Lemaire said for many families it was also an opportunity to spend time together away from screens in an environment that caters for all ages. “I have a teenage son who’s been going since he was a baby, he took a couple of years out in early high school but he’s come back to it and has even brought friends along, so he really enjoys it,” she said “I love dancing with my kids as I was taken to Scottish social dances from the

MAT19 pianist giving to the community By Megan Albany CLASSICAL PIANIST and composer Nuwanda Coleridge’s original cinematic improvisations have not only earned him critical acclaim but have touched audiences in a very practical way. The contemporary musician, whose style has been compared to Phillip Glass and Michael Nyman, has played his baroque inspired piano compositions in a broad range of venues including art house concert settings as well as touring nursing homes throughout the Northern Rivers and has recently been named as a headline performer in the upcoming MAT19 festival. Mr Coleridge said the cinematic influence in his work makes classical piano much more accessible and popular among nonclassical audiences. “I perform original, classically based contemporary piano, similar in style to the theme song of the piano with that deeply emotional, cinematic style with an emphasis on improvising,” Mr Coleridge said. “Cinematic style music is quite popular as people get exposed to it a lot in the movies so when they listen to it in a concert setting, it has quite an impact.” While some people think of classical music as an elite art form, Mr Coleridge has taken his unique style out of concert halls and into the community where he has a particular passion for performing for older people. “The first nursing home I went into was when I was twelve and I saw they had a piano and I asked if I could play it as I wanted something to do,” he said. Since then Mr Coleridge has performed in over 27 nursing homes throughout the state. “It keeps you really in touch with the vulnerable nature of people and everyone benefits from it including the staff, the residents,” he said. “For a lot of them music was the focal point of their life, as when they were young they didn’t have a TV, they had a piano. “It gets some of them out of their rooms and brings them out of seclusion. “I was playing one day and a resident came out and one of the managers said that they hadn’t been out of their room for a long time.” The talented pianist is also in the process of developing scholarships for piano tuition for children who would otherwise be unable to have lessons.

“We’ve given away one scholarship but we are needing more support to expand the scholarship program, it’s at the very early stages but we are looking forward to that developing so we can give away more scholarships.” Mr Coleridge said it was his own experience growing up which made him want to give back to children who have a passion for the piano. “I moved around a lot because I was a Barnardos kid and I was adopted out quite young,” he said. “I find music really healing and I think it’s just really mysterious in the way it works on the nervous system and its just something that has been very healing for me.” Mr Coleridge will be returning to the Murwillumbah Arts Trail music program this year having previously performed in the MArts precinct in 2018. “It was a lovely experience, as a performer there are often little niche moments that touch particular people that can make the experience really beautiful,” he said. “Last year I had someone come up to me and tell me she hadn’t been able to listen to music since her mum died and after hearing my performance at MArts she said she wanted all my music on USB so she could listen to it. “When I started performing I was just intuitively playing, I wasn’t trying to be anyone so I don’t have a clue why I get the touching responses I get, but I think there’s something else at work which is just the magic of music.” Mr Coleridge will be performing at MAT19 in the Murwillumbah Civic and Cultural Centre on Sunday, May 19, from 11am - 12pm. For tickets visit https://www. murwillumbahartstrail.com.au/eventbriteevent/sunday-concert-all-day-ticket/ His show Piano In The Deep featuring new compositions will take place at Byron Theatre this Saturday, March 30.

Featured Business

At Clear Minds Natural Therapy clients can resolve their unwanted negative feelings, unwanted responses or negative behavioural problems that haven’t been responding to willpower or regular psychological techniques and mainstream approaches. Most emotional and mental health approaches do not address the subconscious emotional pathways and responses. The simple reason being is they don’t know how, it’s not part of their training. Private Subconscious-mind Healing – (P.S.H.) is specifically designed to help you do just that. P.S.H. links you to resolve at the source of your problems, not merely treating the symptoms. There is no need for retelling or analysing your story or problems at session. Seemingly men find this a huge benefit. Perhaps the path back to mental and emotional health is in giving yourself

AIR CONDITIONING

the opportunity to resolve issues at the subconscious level. What we create within, we can resolve within. Everyone makes changes and heals in their own time and in their own way. Common problems or symptoms assisted include - anxiety, depression, anger, migraines, stress, addictions, poor sleep, PTSD, Chronic pain, Over/Under weight and much more. P.S.H. therapy is different. It is a completely natural & gentle effective therapy. Typically, only 1-3 sessions are required, usually a week apart for 60-90 Mins each session. Lasting changes & healing continues after formal therapy. For appointments or further information please call Sara Sullivan, Therapist Ph: 0423 830 920 www.clearmindsnaturaltherapy.com.au Registered & Qualified Member of A.S.T.A. www.psh.org.au

HOT WATER

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

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

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

“REMEMBER YOU CAN’T LOSE, NO ANODE REPLACEMENT NO CHARGE” Comes with a 5 year warranty ~ Make your Hot Water System last for 30 years!

At the helm

with Bill Fenelon

LAST SUNDAY the sailing club conducted its last race for the summer season with 14 boats competed and, fortunately, the breeze picked up and it turned into a pleasant afternoon on the river. Fastest boat was visitor Jason Purcell, from Big River Sailing Club, sailing a high-tech Carbon Fibre single-handed RS Aero, one minute back 2nd finisher, NS14 “Zazen 2” (Adam Hurt and Tom Busbridge). The ultra-light weight RS Aero was always going to be hard to beat in the light wind conditions. Third finisher, one minute back, was Laser “Siesta” (Gary McCrohan) who got in only 5 seconds ahead of Laser “Bluey” (Kate Yeomans). Five Single Handers competed in their Yardstick based championship series. 1st Finisher was Siesta, Second Bluey, 3rd Impulse “Woodcraft” (Matt Andrews) and 4th “Flying Dragon” (Monique

Between the Flags

Cudgen Headland SLSC - Keith Kennedy

THREE OF our members contested the Shannon Eckstein Iron competition at Northcliffe last Saturday. The -15 yr. was contested over three rounds with points from round one and two to determine the finalists. Lily O’Sullivan in the final was placed second in a tight finish. In the -17 yr. men Joseph Warne finished in 11th place and Luke Chaffer 9t. in the Open Men’s final, after three rounds. The Australian Titles will commence this weekend with the

Smith). The big event today was the final heat of the 4-race, NS14 Class Championship series. This is a scratch series for 14ft two handed boats. Getting the bullet today in a sparse field of only 3 boats was Fingal Team Adam Hurt and Tom Busbridge in their new boat, “Zazen 2” getting home 6 minutes ahead of 2nd placed Impulsive Max (Robert Preston & Rachael O’Hara). The NS14 fleet was decimated two months ago after two top boats were severely damaged by waves created by wake surfing boats and these two boats have been unable to return to compete this season. One of these was last years Champion NS14 Tornado. As usual the three handed 16 foot spinnaker Corsair Class raced for the summer point score in strong numbers. Four boats competed with first home being “Keenas” (Mark Reynolds & all female ring in crew, Marg Walgers & Deb Flannery) while one minute behind was “Minnow” sailing four handed (Bill Fenelon, Laura Leimola, Kynan Luescher & Taj Krasna).

-14 and -15 yr. Youth Titles to be held at North Burleigh. Cudgen will be represented by five competitors in each division. Our -14 yr. competitors from last year who won 5 gold, 1 silver and 3 bronze move up to 15 yr. They are Lily O’Sullivan who won three gold, Olissa Onley two gold and Stirling Crawford two bronze. The Carnival which has attracted 7,000 entries moves to Broadbeach for the Masters on Monday – Tuesday and resumes on Thursday – Sunday with the Open Competition. The Club has twelve nominated in the Masters and four in the Open, nine in the -19 yr and 7 in the -17 yr Our -19 yr girls will defend their rescue tube –rescue title won at Perth last year. Our N.S.W. Board Riding title holders, Sofie Boyd and Kai Onley will contest the -17 yr and -19 yr.

Meanwhile Tweed Sailors are preparing for State Championships at other clubs. Dave Chester and Deb Flannery competed with 13 Hobie 16’s, raced on Waterloo Bay from Manly boat harbour in a trial race for the state championships. After a 2-race series, Dave and Deb scored a respectable 4th place. Meanwhile Robert Preston with crew Miles will be competing in the next Heron class Australian Championship. The sailing club would like to extend they’re thanks to the NSW Maritime Authorities “Boating Safety Officer” who patrolled the Fingal Reach on Sunday. Using a Jet Ski, the Officer was un-noticed and kept the river safe for sailing and passive river users. Next Sunday at Fingal there will be social sailing and Juniors sailing, but no racing now till the Winter series starts in May. Anybody wishing to get involved in Sailing on the Tweed should contact Club Commodore, Bill Fenelon on 0411 123 4052, or Google “Tweed Valley sailing club”

The FNC Branch meeting last week made the decision to cancel this season Branch Titles set down for April 14, previously set down at Ballina and not held due to cyclone ‘Omar’ and a member drowned. The decision was based on school holiday starting, lifeguard duties and the heavy State and Australian Carnivals competition. This Sunday morning the Club will provide the water safety for 1,200 competitors in the Kingscliff Tri-athlon. Patrols: Sat. 30.3 AM Crabs – Greg Wood (c) PM Barracudas – Sue Eke (c) Sun 31.2.

Holding Shot TRIAL GAMES for the Zone One Over 60s side to contest the State Inter-Zone Championship 14-16 May at Charlestown, in the Lake Macquarie precinct, were conducted at Ballina B.C. last week. With over 50 nominations received, the numbers were reduced to 32 contenders from the Northern Rivers, Clarence River and Tweed Byron Districts, following preliminary selections, to trial for the final squad to be announced. Tweed Byron District was well represented at the trials with 15 top bowlers in the mix. A side of sixteen players has been selected for trial matches against

with Judy Tuckey

Zones 9, 11 and 13 at the Black Paddle competition set down for May 1 - 2 at Park Beach where, and when, final teams will be announced at the completion of that tournament. Following selections at Ballina by Barry Sheppard, Brian Moore and Don Madden, Bulla Burton, Maurie Penfold, Terry Lee, Phil Bennett and Steve Massey have been selected in the side with Ken Coyte being named as the Reserve and Laurie Freeman as a shadow player. Best wishes go to the lads for every success at Park Beach and Charlestown. Zone One selectors would like to advise that all players who nominated for the Over 60s State Inter Zone trials, selected or not, are eligible to nominate for the

Open Inter Zone Championship scheduled for September. Cudgen Leagues Women’s Fours Championship final with Fiona McKenny, Joy Ashford, Lorna Arnott and Liz Fleming (S) challenging Jan Gillie, Lyn Pickett, Rosalie Lowe and Bev Hall (S) was certainly a close encounter for the first 15 ends. As the battle of the best raged it appeared the game could go either way with the score board revealing equal scores throughout those ends. However, team Fleming upped the ante to collect multiples on the next five ends and closed the game with a substantial margin to claim victory. See you in the greens. Good bowling everyone.

Perrow for Byron Bay, with Stuart Kennedy and Adam Melling for Lennox/Ballina (Le Ba). There are at least a dozen or more WCT veterans expected to turn out for their clubs, plus some of the hottest up and coming talent in Australia. The event is highly regarded across the country, and last year’s champions North Narrabeen will be back to reclaim the title after winning it for the first time after 35 years competing in the event. With their young gun Jordy Lawler winning the Vissla Pro in Manly, the Narrabeen Pirates will be pumped for two in a row. The event is a unique coming together of surfing culture, and to support this there will be a welcome to country ceremony hosted by the Yugambeh Aboriginal Dancers, who regularly perform at Currumbin Sanctuary. Indigenous members of all the other clubs competing will also be invited to join in. The event will also be looking to “tread lightly” on the beach, with SAE Group powering the event with their mobile solar generator. Along with the clubs leaving the beach clean and pristine, they will also have various food vendors with vegan options. There are always many unique stories with the event, and the Kirra Surfriders have given a free entry to AVS (Australia Veteran Surfers) Boardriders. They are a group of returned military servicemen and women, who have bonded together and use surfing to cope with the after affects of the trauma of combat. They are not out to win, but compete and be part of the fun and action of the long weekend. Competition with commence from 8am Friday March 29, wrapping up with the final heat around 2pm SundayMarch 31. With 36 teams on the beach, the colour and atmosphere is unique with all the teams showing their club colours and spirit for all to see. All teams are looking to lift the trophy “The Kirra Eagle” up on Sunday, a very heavy bronze copy of the eagle atop Kirra Point. Preferred venues are Duranbah Beach and most of all Kirra Point, and early predictions have a small chance of the event to be held on the host clubs home break. The Kirra crew are also looking for some help with tents and equipment, with low-life thieves stealing their club trailer this week, which had all their tents and contest gear in it. Last seen being towed by a stolen white ute, the white trailer (box in shape) has had the Kirra stickers removed.

Keep an eye out for it and any help or updates contact Robby Totten on 0408 693 459 or rgtdesigns@bigpond.com.

WSL IS BACK!!! Well it is back on from Wednesday with Snapper Rocks again to host the first WSL events of the season, the Men’s Quiksilver Pro, and the Women’s Boost Mobile Pro. It looks like they may have scored looking at the forecast, with South East winds and a long period east to southeast swell predicted for the first days of the waiting period. The circus has started turning up in town, but no waves at Snapper at present, so a lot of the Pro’s have been warming up on the Tweed Coast. Tuesday will see the action starting with the trials for the remaining wildcards for the men and women, and that will be well worth going down to check out, lots of local talent fighting it out for one spot in the event for both the men and the women. The big question will still be the bank at Snapper. Oma took its toll and rumour has it that only 2 weeks ago a depth sounder was used and it was 50 feet deep in front of the rock. That’s a lot of sand to fill. I’m thinking the pumps will be running day and night to get a bank there, and hopefully not extend and fill in the storm bank.

Kanga, PT, Rabbit At Surf World Surf Museum Well surf fans, next Thursday night (April 4) will be your chance to get up close and personal with some of the legends of surfing. Surfworld will be hosting the Gold Coast book launch of bigwave champion Ian ‘Kanga’ Cairns’ biography with writer Wayne Murphy - The Trials and Triumphs of Ian Cairns: Stories of Professional Surfing Ian Cairns. Ian will be joined by fellow giants of Professional Surfing Peter Townend and Wayne” Rabbit” Bartholomew - these all time legends dubbed ‘the holy trinity’ for their significant contributions to the formation of pro surfing - will be back together on the Gold Coast for the first time in modern history with live music from Morning of the Earth original sountrack Terry Hannigan. This is an historical surf event not to be missed! Tickets $10 available from Eventbrite Doors open 6pm Food trucks + Cold drinks available. I reckon that one is a must to put in your calendar.

Tweed teams triumph in NRRRL season opener

By Jo Kennett THE THREE Tweed teams dominated their NRRRL season opening clashes and showed they may be the teams to watch this year. The hot conditions proved testing for all the players. The weekend kicked off on Saturday at Cabarita with a win for the Tweed Coast Raiders in a fairly brutal clash against Northern United with the 64-0 scoreline not painting the whole picture. “Both teams were a bit rusty being the first game of the season and it was really hot,” Raiders assistant coach Mike Ashburn said. “We got a few good calls early which gave us some momentum but the score doesn’t reflect how hard a game it was. “It was really physical. We ran away with it in the end but up until about half time it was a tough battle.” In a real blow to the team, last year’s co-captain Drew Lanston broke his fibula, dislocated his ankle and snapped a ligament in a tackle early on in the game that might see him out for the season. Lanston’s brother Daniel ‘Rocket’ Ross got fired up and scored three tries in retaliation, afterwards saying he hoped

Lanston would be back soon. “One of the other players said he heard the crack. Drew’s leadership lifts the team - he’s a tough soldier so we’ll see how he goes,” he said. “He’ll obviously still get down here and lead us from off the field. “We’ve got a few good utility players - Brendan Matthews slotted in well keeping the same shape and talking a lot. “We got a lot of speed out wide in Dom Murray and Cody Hart - if they find half a gap they are lightning and go straight through. “It was Harrison Bell’s first grade debut and he got two tries (and man of the match) and was good in defence too so well done to him.” Dan Willoughby said that it was a tough game but they had the week off and would regroup. “Full credit to the boys. It was a good effort with everyone rotating after losing Drew Lanston. “We had a good off-season so everyone has been ripping in and putting in for each other.” In the Ladies League Tag the Raiderettes won 24-6 in what coach Trudy Carter described as a tough game. “We had three players out sick and we started strongly but had a shaky second half,” she said. “Brooke Sattler ran 90 metres to score a great try and Lani Fitzimmons did a good dummy

Raiders ran away with a 64-0 win against Northern United

run to score as well. “Our new members have been doing extra training and I was really proud of the way they gelled. “When Northern United field their full side they will be a force to be reckoned with. “I was happy with our exiting and we’re going to improve on running our channels.” Northern United didn’t have an Under 18s side and the Raiders Reserve Grade won 34-4.

Murwillumbah Mustangs win

On Sunday March 24 Murwillumbah travelled to Evans Head to take on the Bombers. Nathan Jordan said it was an extremely hot day to start the 2019 season with the temperature reaching 35 degrees at kickoff time.

“After getting out to a 12-2 lead midway through the first half, injuries, fatigue and some inconsistent decisions allowed Evans back into the game and they took the lead early in the second half. “To our boys credit we fought back to grind out a 26-22 win both sides played a very physical style of game and full credit to Evans who pushed us all the way in front of their very vocal home crowd. “Our best were Travis Barry, big country Crompton Syd Biltoff and Joe Besgrove who played the entire 80 minutes in the middle.” In the Ladies League Tag the Mares got off to a shaky start according to coach Nick Forrester

and were unlucky to go down 6-4 despite playing some exciting footy in the second half. The Mustangs Under 18s had a great 36-4 win over the Bombers. The Mustangs Reserve Grade beat the Bombers 40-6.

Cudgen Hornets win

Cudgen took on Marist Brothers at Crozier Oval, Lismore with an impressive 46 - 20 victory. We will have a more comprehensive report for the next match. Marist Brothers showed their colours winning the Ladies League Tag 50-4 against the Cudgen rookies. Cudgen Reserve Grade went down 28-16. Cudgen Under 18s lost 28-16.

Cudgen blast their way into grand final and it’s Schooners all round in third grade By Jo Kennett THE CUDGEN Hornets weren’t taking any chances in the semi-final of the Two Day LJ Hooker League against Casino, blasting their way into a grand final berth with a batting display that should have Lennox Head worried. On Saturday March 23 in day one opener Caleb Ziebell fell just short of the ton with 94 runs partnering with Pat Rosser who scored 55, before Alec Williams pretty well sealed the deal with 114 runs. There were some good scores put up by the other batsmen in support before Connor Ziebell got to the crease. He hit a very quick 44 off 26 balls - including three sixes before getting out and the Hornets declaring. Knowing they couldn’t get the runs, Casino were going for a draw which saw Cudgen putting in another great bowling display to stave them off. Captain Jamie Wilson said it was a tough game. “We had a hard-fought win in 37 degree heat at Casino,” Wilson said. “The first day we managed to pile

on a few runs to make 403 with the loss of eight wickets. “On the second day they didn’t try to go for the win, they just tried to bat the day out.” James Julius once again stepped up in the bowling, taking 3/31 while Caleb Ziebell took 3/22, brother Connor took 2/27 and Tim Spencer and Anthony Kershler took a wicket each. Harry Gray was a standout in fielding, taking four catches. “Casino batted for 77 overs for 189 runs so their efforts were to no avail,” Wilson said. “We were really confident and waited all day and got the victory so it was a really good effort from everyone. Wilson said he was happy with how the team was shaping up going in to next week’s grand final at Lennox Head against the team who have led the competition all season. “Lennox are undefeated so it will take a bigger effort to knock them over but we are quietly confident that we can beat them,” Wilson said. “Generally it’s a good match and it’s a good batting wicket so a lot of runs is the key to victory. “We are taking a couple of bus

loads down so hopefully we will have plenty of supporters and it should be a great game.” Good luck to our boys representing God’s own country and we hope to see you back at home for the celebration afterwards. The rematch of last year’s grand final Cudgen versus Pottsville was sadly not to be with the Potty boys going down to Lennox Head in controversial circumstances despite getting off to a good start. That was largely due to some great bowling from the ever reliable Ryan McCloy, who took 4/47 over 13 overs, well backed by Tait Burns who took 2/47 and Jayden Hoare who took 1/13 over three overs. Bennett, Wirth and Thoms took a wicket each while Ollie Bone and Adam Rogers took two catches each. Club vice president Jamie Bennett said the team did well the first day. “We bowled well and had them at 6/80. That was at lunch on the first day,” Bennett said. “We bowled them out for 230 and we were 2/100 and then we resumed on the Sunday and lost a few early wickets and we just didn’t quite get there. “Tait Burns scored 57 and Jamie

Terranora was the last Tweed team standing in the Coastal League and trying to book themselves a grand final berth with a win against Lennox Head but despite beating them convincingly the week before, Lennox came out on top. Lennox sent Terranora in to bat but some good bowling from the southerners saw Terranora all out for 166 after the 40 overs with no batting breakdown available. Lennox went in to bat and their opener Bruce Young put the nail in Terranora’s coffin by scoring 84 not out. Their next best batsmen scored 51 not out to see them reach

The Thirstier Schooners were always going to be the ones to beat after putting in a solid performance all season and so it proved. The Murwillumbah Bobcats won the toss and elected to bat but they were all out for 174 with no batting breakdown available because it probably didn’t seem to matter in the end. Allan McKay put in some great bowling for the Schooners, taking 3/18 over five overs to set the Schooners up for the win with Rede Irwin taking 2/19 and Slockee, Osborne and Humphreys taking a wicket each. In reply it was Andrew McKay who led the boys to victory with Shae Piatek, both retiring on 53 runs not out. Dale Buckpitt retired with 24 runs to see the Schooners take the championship 4/184. Congratulations to the Schooners on a great season and also to the Bobcats on making it to the big day and putting up a good fight.

By Jo Kennett THE CASUARINA Beach Barbarians have a massive day planned this weekend for the opening match of the 2019 season. The Barbarians will take on Grafton who are fielding their first team in the competition at Casuarina Rugby Field on Saturday March 30. Casuarina have had a positive start to the season by winning the Rugby 10s carnival at Evans Head

and a good win in a trial match against the Gold Coast Team – the Bond Pirates. Coaches Mick Hall and Nathan Croft have a much younger looking squad this year and are looking at playing a wider, more expensive game this year. Grafton have returned to the Far North Coast competition moving from the Mid North Competition where they proved to be a very formidable club. Saturday’s game should be a solid hit out with both clubs having high

aspirations and certainly eyeing off a top four finish come end of season. The first grade game kicks off at 3.15 p.m. with 2nd grade kicking off at 1.30. In conjunction with the Men’s opening games of the Season the Women’s Rugby 7s will also commence. Two Women’s 7s games are scheduled for the afternoon - the first at 1.15p.m. and the second at 3.00p.m. Mike Elliston, Casuarina’s newly appointed Women’s Coordinator

is confident that the girls will put on a great display of 7s and is promoting an exciting and open fixture. Any girls/women wishing to join the fun and play Rugby 7s contact Mike through our web page too him on Saturday. The day kicks off with a U/17 match at 12 noon - Juniors Club launch, jumping castles and all the fun that goes with a day of Rugby. Come along and support local Rugby.

Tripp got 43. “There was a bit of a middle order collapse but we recovered and got close. “The last partnership was good with Tripp and Ryan McCloy. “There was a bit of controversy with McCloy getting out so that wasn’t a great way to end but it was a good competitive contest. “We’ll back next year ready to make amends and get ourselves into the final to redeem ourselves.” Congratulations to Pottsville on a great year.

Coastal League
