in Murwillumbah has been accepted from Essentially East Coast Inc,” he said. “All announcements will be issued by that group.” Several other non-for-profit organisations had expressed an interest in taking over the iconic festival including Murwillumbah APEX and the Murwillumbah Show Society, although whether they had applied to take the festival over is unknown. Mr Hallworth had previously expressed some of the challenges faced in hosting the festival under the Murwillumbah Central Rotary Club’s banner. “In the mid-2000s our Rotary club was asked by the festival committee to assist with a serious problem when they were not able to find an insurance company willing to offer suitable cover,” Mr Hallworth said. “We agreed to cover the festival under the Rotary insurance policy, the requirements by our insurance company being that the event could not be a separate incorporated body, but a project of the club. “Had we not been able to make these arrangements the Banana Festival would have ceased to exist at that time.” However, Mr Hallworth said the recent change came when Tweed Shire Council altered their policy for supporting festivals which resulted in a “significant reduction when we had asked for a significant increase” to festival funds. “In addition, we were informed that future support will be subject to the festival being altered to meet modern expectations in its program and events, and meeting the many safety and other regulations such as garbage, traffic control and crowd control,” Mr Hallworth said. “Hard to do on a limited budget with volunteer personnel. The writing was on the wall, change or fail. Either find more sponsors or in a short time the Festival would be losing money, not meeting legal requirements, and in great trouble. “We needed to put the festival on a more professional basis and to do that needs more sponsorship.” The club had enlisted the services of Ms Unwin to undertake a sponsorship drive, which she said led to suggestions the festival should be named Harvest Festival. YOUR THOUGHTS: Do you believe the Banana Festival could do with a makeover? What are some ideas you would like to see the festival incorporate in the future? Send your thoughts and letters to editor@theweekly.net.au or by post to 1/12 Queen Street Murwillumbah.

THE BANANA Festival has been cancelled for 2017 with plans to bring it back in 2018 in what could signal a revitalisation of one of Australia’s longest running community festivals. The festival has been passed over to Eventzbiz owner Jennifer Unwin by the Murwillumbah Central Rotary Club recently. The handover follows debate about the title and structure of the festival that was made public early in 2017 on social media and sparked widespread debate. Ms Unwin formed a not-for-profit group under the title Essentially East Coast Inc in early April 2017, and was approved to take over the festival recently. Ms Unwin spoke to The Weekly on Monday and said she wanted to emphasise a need to honour the festival’s past, but she did not feel “the timing of the festival this year was right”. “I have taken over the festival and I think the history is important,” she said. “I do not think after everything that’s happened we can go ahead with the festival this year, but there are plans for the future. “Due to the Tweed floods, it’s made hosting the festival difficult to organise this year.” Ms Unwin said she would not reveal whether the Banana Festival name or format would remain, but she acknowledged the need to include the history of the festival and the importance of the Banana Queen titles. “We had committed to the Harvest Festival, but at the same time we wanted to acknowledge the past and we’re looking at incorporating the name ‘Banana Festival’ some way – but we’re only in the planning stages at this stage.” Ms Unwin said she would not comment on any further planning of the festival at this time. The future of the festival was in doubt prior to the floods, following a vote from the Rotary Club of Murwillumbah Central to “cease all involvement with the Banana Festival” after ten years and after disagreements with the festival volunteer committee. Murwillumbah Central Rotary Club Assistant Governor Denis Hallworth told The Weekly that he did not know whether any festival will be held this year. “An expression of interest to manage and develop a festival

Thanks to our SES heroes

This is in response to the recent article about the SES men and women who worked tirelessly during the March floods. This is my story, I was away when our town was hit by the floodwaters not experienced before. My family were at home on that fateful night. My son and his two children and his daughter’s partner where there when Matthew had a heart attack. Our SES people risked their lives in an attempt to get my family out of danger. Unfortunately it was too late for Matthew. My gratitude cannot be expressed enough. These people are our Murwillumbah heroes. Support them when you can. God bless them all. Di Cot, Murwillumbah Our only daughter Leanne lives in Railway Street, South Murwillumbah and was rescued from her flooded house in the early hours of Friday, March 31. We live in South Australia and from this distance can only be horrified at the devastation and loss of life due to the most extensive flooding in the Tweed Shire’s history. We express our deep and sincere appreciation to all those in your community who stepped forward to assist those who have lost so much and are in dire need. Our daughter has been able to give us details of her rescue and the traumatic days and nights which followed. She has described to us the wonderful and sustaining help and moral support given so freely by so many members of the community of Murwillumbah. Some weeks have now passed and it is evident that the recovery process has begun and we anticipate that over time life will return to some degree of normalcy for the people in all those areas so badly affected by this disaster. Our heartfelt thanks also go to Leanne’s work colleagues, and

Empty buildings could house our homeless

In response to your article on page 12 of your paper issued on 4/5/17, I would like the State Government to utilise its own empty buildings for short-term crisis accommodation (eg TAFE building in Murwillumbah, old hospital buildings in Mullumbimby and Byron Bay) I know they’re in Byron Shire, but surely close enough to help people from Murwillumbah. There are quite possibly other publicly-owned buildings in the Tweed Shire that could be used for hostel-style accommodation. It’s wrong to let people live in tents while a large, sound building containing separate rooms and with connected essential services stands empty. I would also like to see a policy introduced that prohibits

residential buildings to stand empty for long periods of time. Home ownership needs to be considered a privilege and not a right and if a house is able to provide safe accommodation then the government should require it to be occupied. I’m fully aware that such a policy is not only radical, it would require a great deal of careful drafting, but this is my “creative suggestion” to point three of Carmen Stewart’s aim for the rally she organised in Murwillumbah. Jennifer Everingham, Certified Practising Conveyancer

Bring back radio for emergency updates

Re radio emergency updates, of course radio should be used. We don’t have to pay Telstra (or whoever) $70 a month for that, and coverage would be far more reliable. Julie Snow, Murwillumbah

More information needed during flood

I agree wholeheartedly with Pat McDonald in regards to flood warnings relayed via the radio. Local people from the three arms of the river; Chillingham, Tyalgum and Uki checked the river heights hourly and reported to 2MW. Bill Diamond, Stan Hitchens and others I’m sure would relay river heights and projected heights downstream from these areas. Sure radios were all we had for mass communication in those days but remember power outages in critical areas without power Where is the internet? Radios with battery backup were reliable. As soon as people in all areas knew the river heights they all went into action to minimise loss of their possessions. We now have community radio and I feel sure that if approached would assist . Allana Brims, Murwillumbah

Radio communication essential during disasters

I believe a dedicated radio broadcasting service should be used to give vital weather and river information during flooding or natural disasters. I say this as the old 2MW-SES collaboration was amazing in the ‘old floods’. I especially remember it in the ‘74 flood, everyone in the valley who had a radio knew simultaneously, and without effort what was happening. Also, if the power went out, the battery-powered radio could still be used. Today if the power goes out, or if the internet server /wifi has problems which could be highly likely, especially when the less reliable NBN comes in, social

The extra bin being proposed by Tweed Shire Council is imposing plastic waste (the bin) on the public at the cost of education and movement to real recycling. It would be cheaper to supply each household with loppers and explain that palm fronds can be cut into 15cm pieces for mulch on the gardens. The Council letter from Rod Dawson (Weekly 4/5/17) says there will be an increase in waste charges for those who do not have a green bin and a reduction for those who do have a green bin. This is encouragement of waste. Council needs to organise for the encouragement of green waste remaining on urban blocks particularly in light of the unsustainability of western agriculture. The unsustainability on agriculture requires that more householders garden. These gardeners cannot afford to lose organic matter offsite and also have reduced ability to pay bin costs. Centralised control of household green “waste” is not movement towards sustainability. It is continuation of technological twitching when the side effects of technologies are likely creating a dead planet. Geoff Dawe, Uki

When will Cr James Owen, Carolyn Byrne, James Cooper and others learn that five into three won’t go. Their continued attempts to force Tweed Shire Council to review the Kingscliff Draft Locality Plan to allow five-storey buildings fly in the face of Council’s vote to retain a three-storey limit, a petition signed by more than 14 thousand people and the fact that Cr Ron Cooper overwhelmingly won the Kingscliff and Cudgen vote in the last Council election on the three-storey platform. Ms Byrne and James Cooper complain that there’s been too little community consultation. In fact, Council won an award for its consultation process on the Plan while Ms Byrne was still a councillor. Cr Owen has tried and failed to force another Council vote on the issue. What will he do now? Appeal to his Liberal Party masters in Sydney to have the Draft Plan refused at a departmental level. I t wo u l d b e a c o u r ag e o u s government which went against the people of Kingscliff and the Tweed Coast with Tweed now a precariously marginal seat.

Since Pryce Allsop was elected as a Councillor he has disappointed the electorate in many ways as he continues to renege on his original promise to support and protect the environment and encourage ecotourism. As a part of his ‘development at any cost’ faction he has voted for the demise of the coastal koalas, in favor of commercial water mining, supported the unsustainable overdevelopment of the Gold Coast airport and even supported raising the building height limits to high rise on the Tweed Coast. We request that he does at least one good thing for the environment and raise a Council motion to urge the NSW Government to introduce legislation to ban single use plastic bags and encourage local retailers to voluntarily reduce and ultimately ban single use plastic bags. Australians use about 3.9 billion single use plastic bags a year. As consumers and voters we all have great power to influence business practices, government policies and ultimately the health of our environment. Andrew Bennett Murwillumbah

media communication will be compromised. Also the valley has internet communication blackspots, even in areas of Bray Park and Golden Links. With radio communication, people could anticipate for their local area, plan and therefore help others, people knew the ‘hots spots’ for necessary action or to offer help. During the ‘old floods’ the radio became an instant ‘community connector’ as people rang (on landline) 2MW requesting help to lift fridges, assistance with evacuation, etc and community members nearby could offer immediate assistance. This is especially helpful as the current SES members are stretched with SES membership now smaller than former times. The radio offers the community a more reliable, far-reaching information/connection vehicle. Possibly, Council could pay/ give donations to the existing local 101.3 FM community radio station to be ‘taken over’ during times of emergency. By all means use both social media and a dedicated radio station, however a dedicated radio service should be mandatory, it would reach more people ‘hands free’, in a more reliable mode, be more accessible to a broader cross-section of the community (ie via car radios, and for people without access to internet), and will not be affected by future NBN developments.

A big thank you all the way from South Australia

The short answer to the question “should Wedgetail be given an extra boost”of course they should. My wife passed away at Wedgetail last November and the care she received was above and beyond anything we expected, you would not find anywhere a more dedicated team of nurses and volunteer carers. I have written twice to minister Brad Hazzard on behalf of Tweed Palliative Care and surprisingly no reply. I also wrote to Geoff Provest and no surprise I did receive a prompt reply agreeing with my sentiments and explaining the reasons the government was unable to support both Tweed Palliative Care and The Silver Chain organisation, this is a situation that must be rectified. Meredith Dennis is without question the most dedicated, compassionate person I have ever met and also the most organised in what she and her volunteers achieve 24/7 on a shoestring budget of donations and the Murwillumbah op shop. Tweed has an ageing population and the need for Meredith and her crew to continue their work should be paramount in the eyes of NSW Health. I will continue to write to the health minister and I urge anybody with a heart also write to Minister Hazzard, you may very well need help one day and it will be a bloody shame if they are not there, think about it, please!

Friends of the Pound seeking new location FRIENDS OF the Pound (Tweed) Inc are in a desperate search for new premises after its previous location at Petbarn Tweed Heads came to an end recently due to renovations. Friends of the Pound President Sonia Trichter said the group had to leave the site to accommodate a Green Cross Vet Surgery being implemented at the Petbarn store. “They had looked after us for so long rent free, which was excellent,” Mrs Trichter said. Although established to service the Tweed Shire, Friends of the Pound has been forced to look across the border in Queensland for accommodation. They are now temporarily located at the Pines Shopping Centre in Elanora. Mrs Trichter said the facility was a lot smaller leaving no room to accommodate the Friends of the Pound volunteers and information booth. The volunteers are now looking desperately for a new location in the Tweed Shire with future plans to build their own dedicated site. “We want a commercial property in the Tweed Shire with a facility that can be seen and has foot traffic,” she said. “We have been in the Pet store prior and now for 16 years, it is sad, but it is time Friends of the Pound stood on their own feet and found permanent accommodation back in Tweed. Can anyone help?” Mrs Trichter said the accommodation required easy access for potential customers for a retail-style space, instead of relying solely on donations. “We are thinking of reinventing ourselves and going into the second-hand retail goods market along with our dogs and cats, they will be the drawcard,” she said. “FoP are looking either to lease at a very reasonable price or maybe buy but again the price will determine what we do. “We are open to offers, but zoning could be an issue and FoP will need to discuss this with the Tweed Shire Council. “Petbarn are one of our partners and we do have a contract to supply cats to three Petbarn stores this is a very successful outcome for our cats as many have found homes through this initiative, but Friends of the Pound do need a head office somewhere in the Tweed Shire that will suit our needs and ambitions and somewhere to call our own.” Friends of the Pound are only a phone call away for your next cat or dog by phoning (07) 5524 8590 or email info@ friendsofthepound.com

Rabbit virus getting results AN IMPRESSIVE 42 per cent average reduction in wild rabbit numbers has been seen at sites where the new Korean strain of the rabbit haemorrhagic disease virus, RHDV1 K5, was released according to NSW Department of Primary Industries (DPI) researchers. NSW DPI scientist and research director for the Invasive Animals Cooperative Research Centre, John Tracey, said RHDV1 K5 has been confirmed to control rabbits across Australia following national release of the virus in the first week of March. “Laboratory tests showed 66 per cent of all samples collected from dead rabbits had the K5 strain, including samples from NSW, Victoria, ACT, Queensland, South Australia and Western Australia,” Dr Tracey said. “An additional 37 per cent of samples were confirmed to have other RHDV strains. “Samples and reports, recorded in RabbitScan, www. rabbitscan.org.au and via the free smartphone app are helping us monitor and track the virus. “With early confirmation that RHDV1 K5 has already spread from at least one release site, we expect the virus to spread further, especially in the cooler, wetter areas of the country. “The real benefits will be realised in the long-term as the virus continues to spread. “We’re keeping an eye on how it travels with the help from the community, who are continuing to lead rabbit management on the ground.” NSW DPI has encouraged land managers to report and record rabbit numbers, activity, warrens, damage and control activities in their local area though RabbitScan. When users report dead animals in the RabbitScan app or online, biosecurity officers are alerted and arrange a disease sampling kit to be mailed out to the report author. Kits include instructions on how to take and send samples to be tested for disease. The free app can be downloaded through the iTunes and Google Play stores by searching for ‘Rabbit Scan’. There’s more good news from the rollout of RHDV K5, with more pet and domestic rabbits than ever vaccinated and protected against rabbit viruses, and for endangered native species and agriculture, which benefit from reductions in wild rabbit populations.

THE LEGAL LIGHT! Tree law puts neighbour disputes in the shade

One of the most common problems between neighbours is trees. Overhanging branches, roots invading under the fence line damaging drains, buildings and driveways, foliage blocking views and the sun… these gripes have led to more anger and frustration between neighbours than anything else.

Arson possible at old Aquatic Club Tweed Heads

TWEED FIREFIGHTERS were called to a building fire on Monday, May 8, at the corner of Dry Dock Road and Fraser Drive at around 5.30pm. Tweed Heads Firefighters and Banora Point Firefighters were called to the blaze and upon arrival said large amounts of smoke was bellowing from the abandoned building which was formerly the old Aquatic Club. Firefighters first on scene gained access to the property through locked gates before crews attempted to locate the source of the fire in the large space. The first crews in were supported by a secondary crew wearing breathing apparatus who entered to assist. Hazmat crews also arrived and the incident controller tasked them to begin ventilating the structure.

Tweed Heads Firefighters said the seat of the fire was found by crews using a thermal imaging camera (TIC) and the fire was attacked and eventually extinguished. “While ventilation continued, the internal crews conducted a secondary search to ensure that nobody was inside, fortunately there were no persons inside,” Tweed Heads 468 crews said. “The Incident Controller declared the incident complete after about two hours.” While the cause of the fire is yet to be determined Tweed Heads Police are appealing for witnesses or anyone that may have seen people coming or going from the old Aquatic Club to contact Crime Stoppers 1800 333 000 or Tweed Heads Police Station on (07) 5536 0999.

Anneka Frayne, solicitor with Stacks Law Firm, invites you to meet the aptly named Trees (Disputes Between Neighbours) Act 2006 (NSW) – and its 2010 amendments - set up to “provide a simple, inexpensive and accessible process for resolving neighbour disputes about trees” in the Land and Environment Court – at least that is what the government tells you. “In reality the procedure for dealing with a tree under the Trees Act is more complicated than the politicians who made the law would have you believe,” Ms Frayne said.

“The Act prohibits pruning or removal of some trees unless certain conditions apply. It even contains deﬁnitions of what constitutes a tree or a hedge. What you think is a tree might not be a tree under the law.” Seeking to take action against a tree can involve all sorts of interested parties - the person on whose land it grows, tenants, the local council, the Heritage Council, expert arborists, and of course their legal representatives. The Trees Act also requires determinations of whether an offending tree is on private or council land, and importantly, whether the tree is the true guilty party causing damage – or being likely to cause damage if it gets any bigger. The tree-owning neighbour has a right to apply to the court to save the tree and challenge claims of damage by the neighbour. A premature action in court where a tree has not caused any damage or blocked views yet, but might do so in future, could be dismissed. “The important thing is to know exactly where you stand under the law – or where your tree stands under the law – before you get involved in any court action. “It is far better to resolve neighbour disputes by mediation before it gets to court, but it is vital to know your legal rights before you walk into that discussion.

Application for sand quarry extraction increase

THE TWEED Sand Quarry has submitted an application to the Department of Planning and Environment (DPE) to increase its annual rate of sand extraction at the Tweed Sand Quarry site from 150,000 cubic metres to 265,000 cubic metres. The application also includes a proposed increase to truck movements to and from the site to accommodate the proposed increased extraction amounts. The DPE has asked Tweed Sand Quarry to provide more information on their Environmental Impact Statement before the application is assessed. In late July 2016, Tweed Sand Quarry was issued a $15,000 fine by the DPE for extracting more material than is allowed in their approval conditions. Tweed Sand Quarry notified the Department about exceeding the approved sand extraction limits of 150,000 cubic metres during the 2015/16 financial year. A spokesperson for DPE said last year that the company cooperated with the investigation but must pay a $15,000 penalty. “Approved extraction limits are designed to manage the environmental impacts of the quarry such as traffic and truck movements,” a spokesperson said. “The company admitted to the breach and explained the increase in extraction was due to higher market demand for

Heightened fears for whooping cough numbers

Solar Bonus Ends This Year! Are You Ready Yet?

Are you one of the smart people in the Northern Rivers who are benefiting from the 60 cent per kWh export paid to them under the NSW Solar Bonus Scheme? Payments under this plan expired at the end of 2016, leaving solar owners with 4 - 6 cents for each kWh exported after then. 20,000 homes in the Northern Rivers will have to install new meters just to be able to use the power they now export entirely to the grid. 888 Solar Tek, your local hybrid and off-grid solar experts, have developed a smart migration plan, which will eliminate 80% or more of your ongoing power charges. They can install additional solar panels and battery storage now, to cover all of your daily energy use, slashing power charges.

Every cent of the Solar Bonus generated by your existing system is collected right up until the end of the scheme, when both system are combined. Your new hybrid solar system allows greater independence and typically pays for itself in 3-5 years. 888 Solar Tek tailor the new solar system around your existing equipment and provide 12 months free monitoring and support. If you have very low electricity usage you may choose to go off the grid altogether to eliminate fixed supply charges that make up most of your bill. 888 Solar Tek have new technologies that can operate both on and off the grid. This makes staged transition to energy self-sufficiency cost effective and avoids costly equipment change-over.

Take Back Your Power!

24 Hr Solar Power - Batteries Included!

Why pay for electricity when it is cheaper to make your own? Selling your solar power for 4 - 6 cents per kWh sucks! Beat the network by generating and storing your own power.

coverage rates will experience higher rates of infection as there are relatively more people in those communities who are susceptible to infection, which results in more people who can become infected when exposed to the bacteria and transmit the bacteria to other susceptible people in those communities.” Meanwhile, Mr Secord said the spike in whooping cough (Pertussis) cases on the North Coast puts pressure on the “Berejiklian Government to reverse its opposition to tough vaccination laws before Parliament”. “Yesterday (May 4), the State Berejiklian Government said it was opposing Labor’s tough laws – which banned the creation of so-called vaccination-free child care centres and tough penalties for principals or operators who enrolled unvaccinated children in their centres,” Mr Secord said in a media statement. Mr Secord called on the NSW Health Minister Brad Hazzard to reverse his opposition to Public Health Amendment (Vaccination of Children Attending Child Care Facilities) Bill 2017 which is currently at the debate stage. Last week, the Government formally indicated that it was voting against the laws. “However, the State Greens announced that they would be supporting Labor’s legislation,” he said. “This week, the Northern NSW Local Health District confirmed that there had been 79 cases in April 2017 compared to 77 in April 2016; eight in April 2015; three in April 2014 and four cases in April 2013.” Mr Secord said vaccination rates on the North Coast had slipped to dangerously low levels and we were seeing the “spread of preventable diseases like whooping cough”.

WHOOPING COUGH numbers are increasing across the Northern Rivers in 2017 at alarming rates as health districts continue to encourage vaccination especially for infant-age children. Shadow Health Minister Walt Secord described the whooping cough rates as “frightening” after 79 cases of the disease were reported to the Northern Rivers health districts in April this year. Mr Secord also highlighted that NSW had 383 cases in April 2017 – “but a fifth of all cases were on the North Coast,” he said. “In the last week alone (to May 5), there have been 37 confirmed cases on the North Coast – double the previous week.” To find out more about the locations and threat of whooping cough, The Weekly put several questions to Northern NSW Local Health District (NNSW LHD) Director Public Health Paul Corben. Mr Corben said that as at Friday, May 5, every local government area within Northern NSW has had one or more cases reported to the Public Health Unit since the beginning of 2017,” he said. “In the past four weeks, most cases reported in Northern NSW Local Health District have been residents of the Ballina and Byron local government areas, and most of those cases have been amongst primary school-aged children.” Mr Corben said the bacteria that cause whooping cough circulates in communities almost all the time, and the immunity gained from vaccination or from having the disease diminishes over time. “Therefore, all areas are vulnerable to whooping cough, and people of any age may acquire the disease,” he said. “The most vulnerable people in the communities are babies who are too young to have completed their primary course of vaccinations (less than 12 months of age), and those who have never been vaccinated. “The most effective way to protect newborn infants from whooping cough is by vaccinating the mother during pregnancy, preferably at 28 weeks. “NSW Health supplies free whooping cough vaccine for pregnant women, available through GPs, Aboriginal Medical Services and antenatal clinics in public hospitals. “Whooping cough vaccination is valuable in preventing severe infection in infants and toddlers, and if unvaccinated children are infected they are at high risk of severe disease. “Communities with lower vaccination

THE DEPARTMENT of Primary Industries Water (DPI Water) has announced the release of additional groundwater allocations in 42 groundwater sources across NSW, including the North Coast Volcanics Groundwater Source with 1,300 megalitres available and the TweedBrunswick Coastal Sands Groundwater Source with 1,900 megalitres available. As interest in water extraction operations continue to increase, the water allocation bidding is expected to be strong with a minimum bid of $500 per megalitre. Most water sources in NSW are fully committed and water can only be obtained through the water trading market. In water sources with unassigned water however, a controlled allocation order under the Water Management Act 2000 can make new water access licences available. DPI Water Deputy Director General Gavin Hanlon said this process creates exciting new opportunities in those areas where water is being released to the market. “The first tender process for this unassigned groundwater commences on 8 May 2017, and spans a range of groundwater sources across the State, including some coastal areas covered by recently made water sharing plans,” Mr Hanlon said.

“Releasing this unassigned groundwater through a tender process will enable its productive use, promote business opportunities and job creation, as well as helping to achieve economic growth particularly in regional NSW. “This is a unique opportunity to secure new or additional water and supports DPI’s commitment to boosting growth in the primary industries sector. People who want to register an interest in purchasing a licence must do so by Tuesday 6 June 2017.” A new Strategy for the Controlled Allocation of Groundwater has also been developed. This strategy guides the release of water so that licences are only being made available in groundwater sources that are not fully committed. This controlled allocation will run for over three years where after the first registration of interest period, further registrations will be opened annually for any water still available. Registrations of interest are open from Monday, May 8 and close on Tuesday, June 6. Successful participants can choose to either apply for their aquifer access licence immediately, or enter a contract to defer their licence application for up to three years.

Heavy rain puts dampener on raceday meet

TWEED VALLEY Jockey Club got off to a great start for its first race meet since the Tweed floods on Monday, May 8, only to be abandoned after race two due to unforecast rain that led to deteriorating track conditions. Punters were eager to get back into local racing with a large turnout and several local owners including Matthew Dunn and Gold Coast runners converging on the Tweed track. Racing reporters for Sky Racing said the track had been looking “perfect” in dry conditions, however, increased rain of about two inches on the day led to soggy patches on the track and eventually the event was abandoned. General Manager Brian Charman said he was still amazed the track and club were able to turn it around after only five weeks since the track was under more than six foot of water. “It was disappointing to abandon the race meet, especially after the forecast had said

we would be clear,” he said. “There was a lot of assessments of the track made, but I think the racing stewards made the right call on the day especially after more than two inches fell.” The club was supported by several group bookings including Twin Towns Services Club staff, who enjoyed the day regardless of the horse racing under a dedicated marquee. Mr Charman said the club had bounced back from the Tweed disaster and his focus wan now on Super Sundays in June with the next meet on Sunday, June 4. He said the Super Sundays in June sees the Jockey Club host two events in June, with a few new additions the racing scene. “We’re going to be hosting our first markets as part of the race meet, as well as our dedicated children’s play area and of course plenty of local racing,” he said. Bookings have been running hot for June 4, with most places filling fast. To find out more about group bookings contact the Tweed River Jockey Club on (02) 6672 3672 or email tweedrjc@bigpond.net.au

Water Under the Fridge Concert a success A FABULOUS night was had by more than 300 supporters, artists and volunteers at the Water Under the Fridge Tweed Flood Appeal Variety Concert at the Murwillumbah Civic Centre on Wednesday, May 3. An estimated $15,000 was raised from ticket sales, refreshments, auctions and raffles, with the proceeds to go to the Tweed Mayor’s Flood Appeal. A star-studded musical lineup wowed the crowd, including the Round Mountain Girls, Brother Norton, Opera Gold Coast, Simone Nicole, Mohini Cox and Phil Eizenberg, Jerome Williams, Lissy Stanton and Raku O’Gaia.

Southside butchery on verge of bankruptcy after insurance denied SOUTHERN CROSS Organic Butchery at Prospero Street is unlikely to re-open following the Tweed disaster that struck on March 31, after the iconic South Murwillumbah business had its insurance claim denied last week. The insurance knock-back means owner Alfred Smith and his wife Christina Lee Weiner are unable to re-open after more than 11 years of hard work and dedication to the community. Christina posted her thoughts via a message on social media with an image that reads: “Until we meet again”. “NRMA have rejected our claim based on the hydrology report stating it was a flood event that inundated our premises we didn’t have “flood” cover on our policy,” she posted online. “We would like to thank you all so very much for following our journey and supporting both with your kind words and also donations. “We have no idea where to now, and are completely at a loss, 11 years of blood sweat and tears just gone, with nothing to show. We are gutted.” Speaking with The Weekly Christina said the family, which includes two young children (pictured), was now at a crossroads with Alfred already looking for work to support his young family. The debt has skyrocketed to around $200,000 with the family facing an uncertain future. “It’s something we poured our heart and soul into over more than a decade,” she said. “We’re devastated by the lack of support from our insurance company and had thought we would have been covered.” Christina said she had held on to hopes their insurance would come to their aid but as with many other claimants having flood coverage appears to have been a deciding factor. “We’re still in a deep hole to our stock suppliers, who are calling in the debts and threatening legal action,” she said. The family was now considering their options including bankruptcy. A GoFundMe account has been established to assist the family, although the figures so far have only equated to a fraction of what’s needed to get back on track. Several other South Murwillumbah businesses remain closed including Beaurepaires and several other local businesses also awaiting insurance claims.

Meanwhile, The Weekly put several questions to NRMA Insurance in regards to claim made by Southern Cross Organic Butchery, including whether the family had any support from the insurer and what options the family have to appeal the decision. The Weekly contacted the media department for IAG, which is the parent company for NRMA Insurance. A spokesperson for IAG expressed their thoughts for the community. “Our thoughts are with all the communities that have been impacted by Tropical Cyclone Debbie,” the statement reads. “Our first priority has been the safety of our customers, and we’re doing all we can to help those impacted get back on their feet as quickly as possible. “We have received 7,427 claims following Cyclone Debbie, including 372 motor vehicle claims. 1,752 of our claims are in NSW, including: -228 in Lismore; -149 in Murwillumbah; -107 in South Lismore; -65 in Mullumbimby; -51 in Chinderah; -42 in South Murwillumbah; -40 in Condong; -38 in Tumbulgum; and -31 in Burringbar. “We take great care to review the individual circumstances of a customer’s claim to ensure we make a fair and appropriate decision that reflects the insurance policy someone has taken out. “Following a major weather event, such as Tropical Cyclone Debbie, we will see a wide range of damage that has occurred for a variety of reasons. “Some of this damage will have been caused by heavy rain and strong winds, some will be from flooding and there will be properties that have been impacted by both. “All our policies cover storm damage but not all cover for flood. “There is a small percentage of claims received for properties inundated where the customer has chosen to opt out or not to cover their property for flood. “For those customers, we may need to call on independent expert hydrologists to help us determine the cause or causes of damage to an individual customer’s property. “Where a customer’s policy does not cover for flood, the hydrologist’s report will help determine whether the storm

or rainwater cover in the customer’s policy could be applied. “A hydrology report examines a number of factors, including the topography and drainage of the site, how high the property is, its proximity to a water course such as a creek or river, as well as the rainfalls recorded and the events in the area on that day. “These reports look at individual factors so it’s not possible to use the findings of reports from other properties to determine absolute coverage for another customer’s claim, as the impact of water can vary from property to property. “This is why it is important to examine the cause of damage on a case by case basis.” The IAG spokesperson said the company understood it was a “stressful and distressing time for the affected communities and we’re working as quickly as possible to process our claims.” “We also offer counselling to help support our customers during this difficult time,” the statement reads. The company spokesperson said customers can dispute claims with their insurer followed by the Ombudsman. “When a decision on a claim is finalised, customers have the option to have it reviewed through our internal dispute resolution process,” the statement reads. “They can also choose to take their case to the Financial Ombudsman Service (FOS). “Flood is complex with no easy solutions. We regularly meet with communities and stakeholders from all levels of government to find a long-term sustainable solution to flood risk and we have been calling on the Commonwealth Government to provide greater mitigation to help protect communities from natural disasters.”

Kingscliff to host Australian Rescue Boat battle KINGSCLIFF BEACH has been named the host of the Australian Inflatable Rescue Boat Championships in mid-July this year, attracting clubs from across the country to compete in one of the most effective rescue assets available in the water safety industry, the Inflatable Rescue Boat (IRB). Club crews consisting of a driver, crewperson and patient do battle in the 25-horse power, outboard engine powered inflatable rubber boats across a number of events including single rescue, mass rescue, teams race, tube rescue race and others. The announcement is a big win for Kingscliff with more than 750 competitors expected to converge on the Tweed Coast to do battle over three days from July 13-16 and of course support local businesses. Cudgen Headland Surf Life Saving Club President Adam Mills said he was delighted with the news of Kingscliff being named host of the iconic Australian event. “Thursday (July 13) will be the check-

in day for equipment and teams, ensuring everyone’s equipment is equally matched, like the Formula One,” Mr Mills said. “The Friday will be State vs State and Saturday will be the club’s competition. “This is a huge win for Kingscliff and the coast with hundreds of event competitors, families, support crews and visitors descending on the shire during winter.” Normally contested between 200-230 crews, the three-day event delivered over a Friday to Sunday format includes Interstate IRB competition where each SLSA affiliated state association competes as a team for overall state IRB supremacy followed by the club competition. Maintaining their perfect record since the inception of the Interstate event, the eighth consecutive win, are the Queensland team who swept all before them to reclaim their title in 2016. Queensland finished the event with 51 points, while NSW finished in second on 39 points and South Australia taking third

The Weekly owner and editor Jonathon Howard said support from the community and a recent surge in reader interest from Kingscliff, as well as support from local businesses, had prompted the move. “Kingscliff residents are proud locals who have strong opinions about the future of the coast and the Tweed Shire,” he said. “I want to thank our clients and readers for their support in coming back to Kingscliff, they are apart of the foundation that keeps local independent newspapers alive. I welcome your feedback and you can write and let me know where you think The Weekly should deliver every Thursday (editor@theweekly.net.au) thank you.”

place on 32 points. Known as one of the best spectator sports in surf lifesaving, the team sport will not fail to impress Kingscliff and Tweed crowds for the National Championship finals. The last time the event took place in was in 2014, in perfect conditions with around 4-5 foot of swell. Mr Mills said he’s hoping the swell will put on another show for onlookers. “It’s an amazing sport to watch,” he said. “And last time it was in Kingscliff, there was a bit of swell which made it look even more exciting.” A moderate shore dump and rising swells ensured that every crew put all their lifesaving skills into action. “The IRB Championships are unique as they are not only a competition that puts our surf lifesavers into simulated rescue conditions; but they are also the only surf lifesaving sport that utilises a power craft rescue device” Shane Knight, SLSA’s National Sports Manager said.

Itinerary for local film shoot announced THE ITINERARY for an upcoming film production

taking place in Murwillumbah has been released this week, with dozens of extras already expressing their interest to help bring the apocalyptic film to life and more are needed. Known as Occupation, the film is being produced by Gold Coast production company Spark Films who are spending more than seven days filming in Murwillumbah. The company has secured several key locations with hundreds of extras needed to help make an apocalyptic invasion scene at the Murwillumbah Showgrounds come to life. Occupation is the film’s title and while the script is under tight wraps, what we do know is a massive ground invasion takes place and the story is told from the perspective of a group of small town folk. The group band together for survival and the chance to strike back at the mystery invaders.

The Occupation team (pictured) has scouted four locations which are now confirmed in Murwillumbah including the Condong Sugar Mill, the Sugar Beat Café and Restaurant, Taylors Corner Service Station and Murwillumbah Showground. Itinerary below: 1. Condong Sugar Mill filming May 17 to May 19 2. Sugar Beat Café and Restaurant May 22 3. Taylors Corner Service Station May 22 4.

Relief Centre to close soon

AFTER ALMOST six weeks of providing much-needed support to flood-affected residents, the Hutchinson’s Relief Centre in Murwillumbah has announced its last day is on Friday, May 19. The team of volunteers are calling on stricken residents to get down to the centre and secure some items for their recovery. Tonnes of clothing and furniture has been donated from across the shire, with hardworking volunteers putting in a massive effort to sort and distribute the items to those in need. Although a lot of items have been collected by local families, volunteer delivery driver John Davis said there was still a need for white goods and furniture. “We are no longer taking any more donations of clothes, linen and fabric items,” he said. Further to Mr Davis’ comments, there are still high demand for furniture such as wardrobes, clothes hanging racks, chest of drawers, cots, pantry shelving and cupboards, bedside tables, vacuum cleaners, desk, fridge freezers and washing machines. The centre is making way for a new art gallery, that’s scheduled to open soon. The relief centre is operating on Wednesdays and Saturday s from 9am to 2pm.

Woman charged with fraud

TWEED POLICE have charged following investigations into the alleged fraud of a business in Murwillumbah. Detectives from Tweed Heads Local Area Command began investigations after receiving reports that a former employee of a local business, who has not been named, had allegedly defrauded the company of funds, estimated to be in excess of $130,000. Poilce said in a media statement that inquiries established that the woman had allegedly defrauded the business since December 2009, before she was dismissed in March 2017. About 11am on Tuesday, May 9, investigators attended a home in Bray Park and executed a search warrant. Officers seized documentation and electronic devices which will be forensically examined. A 40-year-old woman was arrested at the scene. She was taken to Tweed Heads Police Station and charged with seven counts of steal property as clerk / servant. The woman was granted strict conditional bail to appear at Murwillumbah Local Court on Tuesday, May 23. Police said further charges were expected.

Living Life To The Full New greenhouse business opens at Burringbar AFTER THREE years of painstaking planning and hard work, Pocket Herbs & Produce originally from Byron Shire has opened its new greenhouse facility in Burringbar recently. Having out grown the original farm at Middle Pocket in Byron Shire, the business has hopped over the border to Tweed Shire to be a little nearer to their transport company, based in Murwillumbah, Shoobridge Transport. CEO Iain Reynolds said the company grows crops in a controlled environment greenhouse using sustainable agricultural practices. “These practices involve soil-less growing techniques and the collection and re-use of rainwater; no fungicides, or chemical pesticides are used in growing the products,” he said. “The team at Pocket Herbs are dedicated to growing the best product on the market and we are extremely proud to have reached this milestone in the company’s history.” Microgreens and baby leaf herbs are simply young seedlings of greens or herbs that are intensely flavoured, tender and beautiful. They are typically harvested after 7-21 days, though small in size, micro greens are packed full of flavour and nutrients and look great. Microgreens and baby leaf herbs are delicious and ideal for enhancing salads, sandwiches, main dishes, and soups or as a garnish Started in 2008, Pocket Herbs grows 46 different microgreens and baby leaf herbs which are supplied to the food service industry including restaurants, cafes, cruise ships and a range of other customers up and down the east coast from southern NSW through to Darwin and all points between; with the main customers being in Sydney and Brisbane Markets. The business has grown from just three employees to 25 during this time and has plans to expand its product range now that it has the space to do so.

Mr Reynolds said Pocket Herbs’ range of microgreens are also extremely nutritious, and are one of the most concentrated natural sources of vitamins, minerals, enzymes, trace elements, amino-acids and proteins on Earth. “Microgreens have been found to contain higher levels of concentrated active compounds than those found in mature plants or seeds,” he said. “These tiny baby plants provide a convenient and concentrated means for absorbing the active compounds when eaten or made into a health drink, as is commonly done with wheatgrass.” Iain goes on to say “Our micro greens typically provide the following nutrients: Vitamins A, B, C, E and K, Calcium, Chlorophyll, Iron, Lecithin, Magnesium, Pantothenic Acid (Vitamin B5), Phosphorus, Potassium, Amino Acids, Trace Elements, Antioxidants and Proteins. As you can see Microgreens are extremely nutritious and healthy.” The company also has a new website at: www.pocketherbs. com.au If you would like more information about product lines or to find out about the new installation, email sales@ pocketherbs.com.au or visit the website.

Kingscliff Podiatry offers the latest in 3D foot scanning K I N G S C L I F F PODIATRY now has the latest 3D Foot scanning technology for custom orthotic manufacture. 3D Laser scanning technology has taken a huge forward stride in the past 6 months with the introduction of mini scanners which clip onto an Ipad and utilise the camera to comprehensively measure foot shape in seconds. The scan is then used by a high powered computer programme to design the orthotic shape according to the Podiatrists prescription. The orthotic is then cut out of the highest quality materials by a computer controlled router in a local laboratory and hand finished. The result is a pair of custom orthotics made to the best industry standards available which will last many years. Kingscliff Podiatry can assess your foot biomechanics to check for any abnormalities which may contribute to any symptoms you may have. Any Biomechanical

abnormalities can be addressed with custom orthotic therapy which translates to pain relief. Hyper - rockered shoes are another tool in the Podiatrists tool box for treating certain biomechanical issues. Patients that can particularly benefit from this technical shoe design include individuals suffering from painful fixed or partially fixed big toes after surgery or from severe osteo arthritis, Ankle pain, bunion pain, midfoot osteo arthritis, Achilles Tendonitis, Plantar fasciitis, and lower back pain. The shoe works by having an enhanced curve in the forefoot which starts further towards the heel than in a standard shoe, and is deliberately stiffened. This means the big toe and ankle don’t need to bend as much as in normal gait and therefore have far less force placed upon them during walking which translates to less pain. For more information on all Foot pain give us a call on 02 6674 2933 or check our website www. kingscliffpodiatry.com.au

Mr. Property Services’ goal is to provide “a home for every budget” Mr. Property Services was established in 2008 to offer a professional and dedicated service at reasonable rates to the 'Buyers' and 'Sellers' of manufactured homes located in Lifestyle Villages and Residential Parks in the Tweed Valley and the southern tip of the Queensland Gold Coast. New Laws commenced on the 1st November 2015 The Law applying to homeowners in Caravan Parks, Residential Parks and Manufactured Home Estates has changed effective from the 1/11/2015. The Residential (Land Lease) Communities Act 2013 has replaced the Residential Parks Act 1998. One of the signiﬁcant changes that the Residential Land Lease Communities Act 2013 has introduced concerns the “Sale of homes” and “For Sale” signage. “For Sale” signage? A home owner in a Residential Park / Lifestyle Village is entitled to display a “For Sale” sign in or on the home. The Residential Land Lease Communities Act 2013 provides for community rules to be put in place about the use, enjoyment, control and management of the community. However, a community rule is of no effect if it is inconsistent with the Act or any other Act or law. Further, the operator of a community must not cause or permit any interference with, or any attempt to interfere with: a) A home owner’s right to display a “For Sale” sign in or on the home. b) Unreasonably restricting prospective home owners from inspecting the home or any common area of the community.

New Therapy For Parkinson’s Disease Revolutionary program offers new hope A RADICAL way of treating Parkinson’s disease symptoms is getting results at Active Life Physiotherapy at South Tweed with Physiotherapists saying it offers “hope after diagnosis”. The program called PD Warrior (www.pdwarrior.com) is an exercise philosophy designed by leading Specialist Neurological Physio Melissa McConaghy in Sydney and has been proven to be effective in helping slow the progression of Parkinson’s Disease. Bringing together the latest evidence with the experience and success of training thousands of people, PD Warrior proves that exercise is medicine. What makes PD Warrior so effective, is its proactive approach to exercise and improving quality of life and it is a program unlike any other available. Parkinson’s Disease is a progressive neurological condition that affects people from all walks of life. It is quite common, with approximately 80,000 Australians, including over 17,000 Queenslanders living with Parkinson’s. The average age of diagnosis is 65 years, however younger people can be diagnosed with Parkinson’s too. Symptoms

can range from tremor, slowness or loss of mobility to some cognitive deficits. Physiotherapist Matthew Gray is excited to be running the program. He states that while there is still no cure available for Parkinson’s, the program is aimed to slow the effects of the disease and most participants experience significant improvement in their symptoms: “We’re trying to tap into the brains natural ability to rewire itself. The program is far more than just exercise, focusing on helping participants to feel empowered and get back in the drivers seat as well as helping them to join up with a community of people who are like minded and proactive”.

accosted in the toilets at Knox Park. “He used some of the kicking techniques taught by me and was able to escape without injury or harm.” Phil said Hapkido teaches discipline, control of emotions, and gives high-level skills to protect them and others in adverse situations with road-tested defence techniques. “You start Hapkido at any age with a white belt (beginner level) and progress through belt gradings to black belt level (1st dan),” he said. “Generally, it takes about four years to achieve black belt level. “Hapkido techniques are complex and enjoyable to learn. There is a huge body of work to discover and keep you interested your entire life.” The history of Hapkido in Korea goes back nearly two thousand years. It was originally only taught to the aristocracy and the “men of letters”, until around 1960 when it came into prominence again and began to be taught to the general public. It is the preferred defence technique of Korea’s special forces Hapkido is one of Korea’s national arts and is not practised as a sport. “It is not aggressive. You can see Hapkido in action in many movies and television series,” Phil said. To find out more about the youthful and spiritual benefits of Hapkido contact Phil at Tweed Valley Hapkido on 0408 700 285.

Bulk Buying Solar Power – Beware

We recommend getting a second quote; the ‘bulk buy’ gives a portrayal that you are getting a good deal. If you would like a second quote please contact SAE Group on 1300 182 050 or go to www.saegroup.com.au.

We are available for a free consultation to give you the confidence in making the right decision on your solar purchase or battery installation.

High Electricity Bills? Everyone will start seeing their electricity bills coming in and there

are going to be some people suffering from shock. The high electricity bills are a result of air-conditioners over the summer season or the 60 cent feed-in tariff finishing in December for solarsystem owners. The good news is that you can reduce your electricity by installing a solar system or even help the battery revolution by installing batteries on your house.

For the solar owners who were on the 60 cent feed-in tariff, it is important to get an energy-efficiency consultant to assess your existing system and advise the best way to get your bill down. There are still generous rebates available that discounts the cost of your solar systems and these are also available for households that already have an existing solar system and are looking to increase the size of their system.

THE NSW Labor Party is demanding the Berejiklian Government upgrade its risk approach in response to the catastrophic threats posed by White Spot Disease to the NSW prawn and shellfish industry. The Western Australian Government has already put in place a “no tolerance” approach to the outbreak of White Spot Disease in Queensland, to safeguard their lobster industry.NSW, despite its proximity to southern Queensland has however retained a “low-risk” approach. In Parliament, Labor challenged the Minister for Primary Industries, Niall Blair, to adopt the Western Australian Government’s approach to the growing risk that the disease would head south into NSW waters. The Minister refused to consider upgrading the State’s defences against the outbreak of the disease in NSW. Recently, an international expert in White Spot Disease said all stops were needed to protect Australian prawns from White Spot Disease (ABC, Qld Country Hour, March 24, 2017). The outbreak of the disease in Queensland is the largest biosecurity outbreak to hit Australia's aquaculture industry and jeopardises the future of Australia's $80 million prawn farming sector. According to the DPI there is no evidence of White Spot Disease in NSW prawn farms or in wild caught prawns Shadow Minister for Primary Industries Mick Veitch said that whilst White Spot Disease did not affect humans, it was devastating for prawn stock and other shellfish. He said The Western Australian Government has rightfully taken a “no tolerance” approach to protect their valuable shellfish industry. “I am concerned the Berejiklian Government is more concerned with budgetary factors rather than the real risk White Spot Disease represents to the NSW industry," he said. “NSW is at the frontline of potential spread of the disease, yet the Berejiklian Government is happy to maintain a low risk approach. “We need to take a zero tolerance approach to stop the spread of this disease and its potential to destroy our prawn and shellfish industry.”

MURWILLUMBAH HAPKIDO instructor and 4th dan Phil Eizenberg has revealed how learning martial arts can inspire and empower the spirit while keeping you looking youthful and energised. Fit and young for his age Phil, 67, is a well-known Hapkido instructor who said the benefits of training and learning a martial art were unlimited. “It keeps me feeling and acting young,” he said. “I can do this because I started Hapkido training at age 35 and have continued ever since.” Phil explained that Hapkido is a Korean Royal martial art that incorporates meditation, gentle tai chi-style exercisers, stretching and practical self-defence. “It combines the use of weapons with hand and foot techniques,” he said. Phil said he’s inspired by Hapkido’s ability to develop the human spirit at both a conscious and subconscious level. “It develops courage and empowers the individual with skills from concepts that have been taught for many, many years.” Phil (pictured below) also used an example of how Hapkido helped save one young student. “A general example of how the techniques work is shown in the development of many of my students whose parents contact me and tell me how their children always remember their training with me,” he said. “This training has developed their individual character, given them confidence and self-esteem and kept them safe. “A specific example: One of my young students was

Artwork by Pillip Hay on Exhibit, welded sculptures reﬂecting 35 years in the Blue Mountains and paintings inspired by our rainforests

In the New Zen Garden there will be relaxing music played by Adarsha and Melanie every Sunday morning to enjoy while eating breakfast.

Adarsha took up the Koto in 2002 although her first Koto was a gift from her father in Japan in 1997. She studied this ancient instrument under the guidance of her master Satsuki Odamura from the Sawaii international School, Japan. Adarsha has performed at various concerts including the opera House, Woodford Folk Festival and Multi-Cultural events.

Melanie started Learning the Shakuhachi flute 8 years ago when pregnant with her first son. It sparked an interest in her, she felt playing this flute gave her a different path to approach with her strong mediation practice. Playing the Shakuhachi brings the many voices of nature to life in a different form. Some pieces are serenely meditative and picturesque, others are powerful and dynamic.

The consequences of climate change and community spirit

Satie and Karnshina moved into a prominent building on Tweed Valley Way, known for decade’s as the “Duck In”. With a new look, this site changed to a creative concept they called The “Tea Inn”. After a successful two months serving beautiful and lovingly made food, the ﬂoods came and caused havoc. The community spirit and support was amazing and they now are expanding with a large new space for a Zen garden with Japanese live relaxing music every Sunday morning and a gallery area for talented artist Phillip Hay. His work includes welded metal sculptures and recent oil paintings which are inspired by our local rainforests.

To help people to find their ‘Shine’. It seems with the recent flooding in our shire, these ladies of the light are ready to spread their own brand of quirky love and salvation. “A bold, colourful and dynamic performance The Shine Show includes storytelling, song, dance and film. You will leave feeling uplifted and shining from the

inside out.” Also on the program for the night will be “Sponsor’s Private Selection” Awards. This provides the opportunity for our Gold Sponsors to present an award to the artist of their choosing.

Two films that deal with historical events are coming to town, but they look at history in very different ways. Denial is a drama that accurately depicts the British libel suit that in 1996 saw American historian Deborah Lipstadt and her publisher, Penguin Books, being brought to court by David Irving, the British historian who Lipstadt had accused of being a Holocaust denier. Irving claimed that there never were gas chambers at Auschwitz, that Hitler had no plans to decimate European Jewry, that the photographs of Holocaust victims taken by Allied soldiers in 1945 only proved that those soldiers, and not the German leadership, were responsible for the killings. But while in the US the ultimate defense against libel is the truth - and the truth was most definitely on Lispstadt’s side - according to British law the burden of proof is on the defendant, and therefore Lipstadt had to demonstrate that what she wrote about Irving in her 1993 book, “Denying the Holocaust,” was valid. Their Finest is instead a charming comedy about a British Ministry of Information film team making a morale-boosting film about the Dunkirk evacuation during the Battle of Britain and the London Blitz. It features a brave proto-feminist heroine, a jaded love interest, an ensemble of distinguished English character actors, and an adorable dog. The depiction of wartime London strikes a believable balance between grit and rose-tinted nostalgia. And even when it takes a turn for the tragic, “Their Finest” never loses its typically English sense of good humor.

THE FIFTH annual Heart of the Caldera Wellness Festival will take place on Sunday, May 21, from 9am3pm. Bigger than ever, this year’s stalls will span from the Tyalgum Hall and grounds, and treatment booths, readings and therapists will be in the market grounds of Celestial Dew Guesthouse and The Wellbeing Centre. The Wellness Festival celebrates and promotes all things associated with natural healing, and wellbeing for body, mind, spirit and the planet. Event organiser Treni Trovato said this year’s festival would have a focus on renewal and nourishment. “As the Tweed village of Tyalgum prepares to go off the grid, residents want to spread the message on alternate energy, wellbeing and spiritual growth as well as bringing Tyalgums only Wellness Festival in the Heart of the Caldera,” she said. “The festival will bring all health and wellbeing practitioners and businesss together for your renewal. “There wil be Astrology, Reflexology, Better Earthing Products, vegan and vegetarian foods and Bush Flower Essenences, and spices, wellbeing products and info stalls, mediums, chiropractic, sound healing from 1pm to 3pm hosted by Shivalah Dharma Timeles Transcendence Presence Emotion and Sound Healing.” After three years the Wellness Festival has established a strong name amongst the festival calender with the event attracting people from across NSW, and Southern

Fair Dinkum

The footy on rep weekend was great and then we get these four pelicans getting caught with cocaine. I just can’t comprehend it. Australia were awesome in the first 40 minutes against a disappointing NZ. I thought the team the kiwis picked would be right in that contest but Australia are lengths clear at the moment. The pacific islands game was brilliant. The passion they showed and comradery was first class. The Jillaroos were dominant as were the junior kiwis and someone forgot to tell the players of City Country that it wasn’t an Origin trial as they played the last fixture with so much purpose. But then we listen to the news, see a feed on Fox, have a link shared on Facebook and Bromwich, Proctor, Kenny-Dowell and Keogh (the CEO

Tweed Valley Weekly Locals Supporting Locals

of the premiers) have all been caught using/with an illicit banned substance that is the root of a lot of problems for young people predominantly males in society today. These guys are pillars of our game, role models to so many and at the end of the day husbands and DADS! Would not have been a fun conversation explaining their actions and consequences to their children and wives and unfortunately mates who probably condone it and are involved also. The penalties have been harsh but fair – Keogh has voluntarily (as he should) stood down from CEO of Sharks, Kenny-Dowell is fighting his case but it’s cost him $1.2 million at the Knights as rebuilding their club a player caught doing this is not who you want and Proctor and Bromwich will miss a World Cup that NZ cannot

win now without them. The only ounce of credit I will give Proctor and Bromwich is that they admitted it and copped the penalties. They should consider themselves lucky in that the police caught them and not ASADA as Wendell Sailor got two years for his indiscretion. Throw into the mix Cocaine Cassie in Colombia and it’s an epidemic that is getting worse and worse. We have all done stupid things after a few too many reindeers but you are responsible for your own actions, even more so when you are a father, role model, club/country captain or boss of the greatest game. We (as a game) have a problem – no two ways about it and it needs fixing. This ‘integrity unit’ we hear so much about need to get serious about things. See you at the footy.

We need an urgent and ongoing solution to the loss of our affordable accommodation in Murwillumbah. “If we purely add the accommodation lost via rentals and the caravan parks, we can conservatively estimate that there are around 150 people in need of urgent accommodation resulting from the flood (not to mention the huge number of people already on the waiting list via homelessness services). “We must supplement the handful of head loss properties that are to be made available via government funding.” Mrs Stewart said an offer has been made to the State Government to lease flood-free land that has sewerage and electricity connected on the edge of the Industrial Estate,” she said. “It would be perfect for this type (yurts or cabins see below) of accommodation. This offer of land has been passed on to the District Director of FACS and Thomas George.” The rally was attended by local Member for Richmond Justine Elliot as well as Mayor Katie Milne, Councillor Pryce Allsop and several other local dignitaries.

the community, we know people want to remain in the communities they love,” Minister Goward said. Up to a further $10 million has been allocated to increase social and affordable housing supply in Northern NSW over the next three years. Meanwhile, local inventor and builder Brain Forbes is offering his own solution to the housing crisis with an ingenious building technique that draws on the ancient yurt design to create stunning and versatile new homes. Mr Forbes visited The Weekly on Tuesday to discuss his Split Lift Model E Yurt (see below), which starts at around $35,000 and come with expandable options to three rooms and can be assembled in a weekend. A passionate and innovative thinker, Mr Forbes said it was about time governments and politicians took notice of new and affordable housing models that can be easily built and at a fraction of the cost. “These structures use biomimicry, which means the same as mother nature and are shaped like a flower or citrus fruit,” he said. Mr Forbes was featured on ABC New Inventors and has already completed several luxury models on the Gold Coast as well as small getaway-style designs. The materials are ecofriendly and made from non-toxic materials and the build time are usually hours not weeks or months. “The designs are expandable and can be built a slice at a time,” he said. “Leonardo Da Vinci said “simplicity is the ultimate in sophistication” and I think we need to adopt this idea to refine and yet still remain sophisticated to supply the number of homes needed while remaining both versatile and affordable.” To find out more about Mr Forbes Model E Yurts contact 0415 638 380 or email usefulyurts@yahoo.com.au

THE TWEED housing affordability crisis continues to weigh heavily on the hearts and minds of residents, as homeless number continue to rise across the Shire as flood victims and those struggling in a tough rental market make a united call for greater government assistance. While their demands may have been somewhat met with Minister for Social Housing Pru Goward, alongside Member for Tweed Geoff Provest, announcing a $12 million increase to Northern Rivers social housing this week. However, many local residents including It Takes A Town coordinator Carmen Stewart, who fears the funding announcement falls “far short of resolving the future issues”. As rental prices continue to climb alongside house prices, several residents have been crying out for affordable housing options including those left destitute by the Tweed floods. More than 60 people who attended a housing rally in Murwillumbah on Saturday, May 6, were united in their call for more social and affordable accommodation. Mrs Stewart told the crowd that another 15 sites at two Chinderah caravan parks had been closed due to flood damage, and the people living there were evicted. Mrs Stewart recently featured on ABC’s 7.30, in which she emphasised the need for future housing solutions on the Tweed. She said the NSW Government had committed to an “additional $2 million to support local services to “head lease” properties which will enable an additional 30 properties to be leased over the next three years.” “These properties are to be leased across Northern NSW,” she said. “As we wait to hear what the government’s commitment is to the leasing of properties in and around Murwillumbah, we can assume that it will be as low as 10 properties available for rent via head leasing over the next three years. “This is a welcome contribution, but it won’t meet the need. “We lost 25 real estate managed rental properties, as well as an unknown number of private rentals and owner-occupied homes - all destroyed by the flood. “Ten extra rentals via head lease won’t come close to covering this impact.” Mrs Stewart said 70 people were displaced from the Greenhills Caravan Park which is unlikely to reopen after insurance claims were rejected late last week. “Additionally, 15 sites were closed at the Chinderah Caravan Park and the Retirement Village last week,” she

Interesting Facts

-The Apollo astronauts confirmed that you can’t see the Great Wall of China from the Moon. In fact, all you can see from the Moon is the white and blue marble of Earth. -One of the most common misconceptions about Darwin’s theory of evolution by natural selection is that Darwin claimed we evolved from chimpanzees. Darwin never actually said this, nor will any respectable biologist. This myth was actually spread by religious zealots during the 19th century in order to try and discredit Darwin and promote anti-evolutionism among the religious. Humans and chimpanzees are actually cousins (we share about 94% of our DNA with them) and both evolved from a common ancestor around 7 million years ago. -1 year does not necessarily 7 dog years. While true in some cases, it does not apply to everyone because it very much depends on the size and breed of the dog.

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 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!

HOCKEY with Richard Phillip

SEVERAL LOCAL hockey players have been named in the Queensland Blades (mens) and Queensland Scorchers (womens) squads which will compete at the 2017 Australian Hockey League (AHL) in Perth in September and October. Andrew Butterini, Oliver Crane (Casuarina), Dylan Wotherspoon (Murwillumbah) and Blake Wotherspoon (Murwillumbah) have been selected for the Queensland Blades squad which will play against teams from Australia’s seven other states and territories from September 28th – October 8th, in Perth. Madison Fitzpatrick (Cabarita Beach) and Savannah Fitzpatrick (Cabarita Beach) were named in the Scorchers Squad. Meanwhile Tweed local Emily Hetherington has been named as a member of the 2017 State Women’s Country Team. The hockey product was announced as part of the 2017 State Country Team at the conclusion of the annual Poligras Super League championships, held last weekend on Saturday 29th April – Monday 1st May. “Fierce, Fast and Furious”, the Poligras Super League sees 100 of the State’s best male and female players competing for their zones as

opposed to their traditional association teams, showcasing Queensland’s best available hockey talent in the strongest standard of competition. The State Teams will now begin preparations to compete at the 2017 Australian Country Championship that take place in Townsville from Friday 11th - Saturday 19th August. Men’s Results Kingscliff hosted a grass game against the Waratah Bobcats last weekend. You have to be reminded that these men have never played on natural grass before as all first grade games are played on international artificial turf where the ball moves smoothly at over 100km per hour. To play on grass where the ball is much slower is a bit like watching a soccer game very slow. The bounce of the ball was something both teams struggled with as the game tended to get bogged down in the midfield with multiple ball turnovers. Both teams soon realised this and took their time to work the ball up the field and aim for short corners. Kerin Walker of the Waratahs who scored the only goal off a short corner to give them the win 1-0. The other game between Murwillumbah and Casuarina saw a 2-1 win to Casuarina. Murwillumbah were the first to score with a

Between the Flags Cudgen Headland SLSC – Keith Kennedy LAST WEEKEND nine of our under 15 and under 17 members

attended the Far North Coast Branch Development Leadership camp at Fingal Rovers Surf Club.

The course commenced on Friday night and went through to Sunday lunch time. Fingal was also the venue on Sunday morning for the first ‘ALBERT’ (Australian Life Boat Emergency Rescue Training) with FNC Branch IRB drivers and crew persons which brings together members from Yamba to Fingal. It is also an exercise to requalify drivers and crew for the coming season and those who wish to contest the Australian Titles on our beach in mid July. Pool rescue training also commenced for our squad last Saturday morning and has attracted several new members for the Branch Championships at Lismore on June 4. A good roll up of ‘Coldies’ members for their first point score swim on Sunday. Nearest to nominated time 1st. Steve Wilson, 2nd Tony Luxton, equal 3rd Mia Taylor and Mick Player.

goal to Michael Hall and Casuarina equalising shortly after. The second half saw the game go from end to end. Murwillumbah was at a disadvantage only having 12 players and with one injured left them with no reserves late in the half which took a toll as Casuarina came home stronger to register a win. Women’s Results Over in Ballina the Casuarina women’s team had a big win over Ballina 4-0 with goals to Sarah Perieira (2) , Georgina Munroe and Tara Fitzpatrick. Casuarina had the best of possession which showed in the scoreline and their defence lead by keeper Zoe Smith pleased their coach Sharon Buchannan, a four-time Olympian. Murwillumbah broke Lismore’s 16 game winning streak with a well deserved 2-0 win. Goals went to Sam Iwanuscha and Melissa Johnston but their best player went to Broadie Palmer. The Waratah Falcons had an easy win over East Lismore 5-0. East Lismore’s goal keeper played outstanding despite plenty of work but could not stop two short corners to Stacy Butters, a stroke to Amy Paron and goals to Chloe Saddler and Emily Hetherington. The other game in Murwillumbah was between the Mullumbimby Suns and Northern Star who drew 1-1.

to undertake the Shire’s beach lifeguard services at 10 locations. ALS has submitted the summer report for 2016-2017. The following extract provides the main patrol season statistics. “Due to the good conditions, lifeguards were only required to undertake 35 rescues despite an increase of over 31,000 additional beach visitors when compared to the same period last season,” the report reads. “Of the 35 rescues, 14 of them were conducted at Kingscliff and Kingscliff North Beaches and is an increase of two rescues when compared to the summer period last season. “Attendance across the Tweed Shire beaches were similar to last year across most of the patrolled locations with the exception of Duranbah and the Kingscliff beaches which saw a combined increase of 16,680 beach visitors. “Lifeguards also performed 9,481 preventative actions and 281 first aid cases during the summer patrol period which is up from the 7,301 preventative actions that lifeguards made during the summer period last season and double the amount of first aid cases lifeguards responded to last summer.” Season Highlights Beach Visitation: 15,679 people were recorded visiting Tweed Shire Council patrolled beaches, the highest number at Duranbah Beach (33,058). Prevention: 9.481 preventative actions. Rescues Performed: 35 rescues First Aid: 281 first aid treatments. Law Enforcement: 195 law enforcement actions Public Relations: 14,905 cases of providing information and advice to the public.

POLICE BEAT Police appeal after man approaches three children at Tweed Heads SEVERAL CHILDREN are believed to have been approached by a suspicious man at Tweed Heads last week prompting local police to appeal for public assistance. Tweed Police said they would like to speak to a man described as being aged in his 60s, of medium build, with a grey beard (two to three days growth), and grey curly, shoulder-length hair. Police said a 10-year-old boy was approached by the man on Tuesday, May 2 between 8am and 8.15am at Ourimbah Road, Tweed Heads. “The man was rummaging through council waste, with his car engine running, and the passenger door open,” police said in a media statement. “The man gestured to the boy to approach him. As the bus arrived, the man returned to his car and drove away.” The second incident occurred between 8am and 8.20am on Wednesday, May 3 where an 11-year-old girl was approached at the same location. “She saw a man going through the junk pile, with his car engine running, and the front passenger door open,” Police said. “The man started walking beside her. As the bus arrived, she ran to board it.” The third incident occurred shortly after when a 10-year-old boy was approached “He saw a man putting something in the passenger side of his car,” Police said. “Both the passenger and driver’s doors were open, with the engine running. The man gestured to the boy to approach him, to which he declined, and walked away.” The man was last seen wearing a red baseball cap, light yellow button up shirt, blue denim jeans with a brown belt. Police have been told the man smelt of alcohol and cigarettes. The man was possibly driving a black BMW sedan with partial

registration number V**879 with a dent and scratch on the front passenger door. Police are urging anyone with information in relation to this incident to call Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000 or use the Crime Stoppers online reporting page: https://nsw.crimestoppers.com.au/

21-year-old busted over dirty drug operation A 21-YEAR-OLD Tweed Heads man was busted last week over what police allege to be a dirty drug operation with more than 300 pills seized. Police said at about 1.30pm on Thursday, May 4, they executed a search warrant at a home in Stuart Street, Tweed Heads. During the search police allegedly located more than 300 pills, methamphetamine, prescription medication, cannabis and drug paraphernalia and chemicals allegedly used to manufacture prohibited drugs. The man was arrested, and when searched, police allegedly located more cannabis and methamphetamine. The man was taken to Tweed Heads Police Station where was charged with numerous drug offences including possessing a prohibited drug and supplying a prohibited drug. Detective Chief Inspector Brendon Cullen, from Tweed Heads Local Area Command says yesterday’s discovery is a timely reminder of the risks people take when ingesting prohibited drugs. “Every time you consume illicit drugs, you are putting your life at risk as there is no quality control,” he said in a statement to the media. “These drugs have been outlawed for a reason – they are very dangerous. The criminals who supply illicit drugs don’t care about your health; they only care about making money. “Anyone who is considering taking illicit drugs should stop to consider the possible consequences and not do it. It’s a gamble with your life that’s just not worth taking.” The man was refused bail and appeared in Tweed Heads Local Court on Friday May, 5.

Bowls Notes THE TWEED Byron District Women’s Bowls Association Fours Championships, conducted at the Cudgen Leagues Bowls Club revealed unexpected surprises as several top teams were dispensed with in the early rounds and top quality bowling from all competitors made for great entertainment across the greens. Semi-final One in the Open Fours between Jenny Lofts (Skip), Kerry Dexter, Sherril Pearce and Rosa Kinnear (Brunswick Heads) and Maryann Sweetnam (Skip), Tina DeBelle, Elayne Foster and Barbara O’Reilly (Condong) was a tough battle. The Condong girls took the lead early, 7-2 up on seven ends, before Lofts and Co settled and began a catch up to be on 12-12 by the 15th end. Again, Sweetnam’s team surged ahead to take control. However, a resurgence from team Lofts brought the score to 15-15 with one end to go. Collecting two shots on the last end, the Brunswick girls claimed victory and a spot in the final. Semi-final Two between Pat Moore (Skip), Karen Cranwell, Lynn Ross and Pauline Ciercan (Cabarita) and Sue Reid (Skip), Kerry Leslie, Joan Hanson and Jenny White (Kingscliff) was another close encounter. The Kingscliff girls held the lead for the first seven ends with Cabarita then taking over

with Judy Tuckey

on the eighth and, holding the Kingscliff team at bay, closed the game with a minimal margin. The final of the Open Fours between the Cabarita and Brunswick Heads teams was indeed a nail biting experience for everyone with the scoreboard not revealing just how excellent the ladies were performing. Team Moore held a slender lead to the half way mark when Lofts’ team picked up a 5 on the twelfth end to nudge in front, hold on, and then break away to close the game and claim victory with a comfy margin. Semi-final One in the Senior Fours was between Sandra Akers (Skip), Di James, Marie Drewett, and Di Jones (Kingscliff) and Joy Lake (Skip), Valerie Dudley, Lois McLeod and Faye Turner (Cabarita). Team Lake wasted no time in getting down to business and had the Kingscliff girls on the back foot all the way. Scoring relentlessly, and limiting the Kingscliff team to claiming only seven ends throughout the game, claimed victory with a solid margin. Semi-final Two was a tough encounter between June Munn (Skip), Rita Butler, Laurel Poole and Joan Griffiths (Kingscliff) and Margaret Enright (Skip), Joy Marie Quirk, Margaret Hosie and Johnnie Busch (Ocean Shores). Team Enright was in control up to the sixteenth end. However, team Munn picked

Jenny Lofts (Skip), Kerry Dexter, Sherril Pearce, Rosa Kinnear

up a 5 on the 17th end and in a tight finishing 4 ends, were able to hold on and take the game with a narrow margin. The final in this principle between Team Lake and Team Munn was a very one sided affair. Lake’s team, still fired up and displaying impressive bowling forte, once again being relentless as they plundered shot after shot, claimed victory and the title with a solid margin. A very special event is on the cards for

Sunday, May 21. The Cabarita Beach Bowls Club will hold a Benefit and Fundraising Day for the Condong Bowls Club. Whilst the Condong clubhouse and greens are now open and operating, there are still absolutely heaps of minor repairs and more that need to be attended to.

THE FIRST EVENT of the prestigious Queensland Championship Circuit will kick off on the Gold Coast this Saturday the 13th of May at the 2017 QCC Alley Classic at Currumbin Alley. The event will see the best open men’s surfers do battle for a much sought after Queensland Title, prize money and a highly valued wild card position in the World Championship Tour’s 2018 Quiksilver Pro trials at Snapper Rocks. Preparations are well underway for the first of three events in the series. A long range forecast shows a large easterly swell arriving on Tuesday that will stick around until the end of the week to provide excellent conditions in the 2-3ft (1-1.5m) range that are well suited to Currumbin Alley. Organizers are now very confident that the series will be off to a great start for 2017. The series will draw competitors from right across Queensland and Northern NSW, including the best up and comers as well as the most experienced seasoned locals. The event has a impressive list of former winners including Joel Parkinson and Adriano Desousa who both won the event at 16 years of age, in fact Parkinson has won the event before it was on the QCC program. But the most impressive thing will be surfing the Alley, pumping with on four people in the water. The star-studded line up of contenders for this weekend’s event will also include QS surfer and Gold Coast local Nick Vasicek (Coolangatta, QLD). Vasicek is in form at the moment with a quarterfinal finish at a recent World Surf League (WSL) Qualifying Series event in Bali last month.

Zahli Takes Subway Series!!

Zahli Kelly has broke all records to be the youngest ever to win a junior series, after topping the Women’s Rankings at the end of the season. The 13-year-old came from behind to overcome Alyssa Lock who was eliminated in the Quarterfinals. The eventual event winner Macy Callaghan ousted Kelly in equal 3rd but it was a good enough result to see her climb too first on the ratings giving her a spot in Kiama next January for her first ever WJC. “I’m super happy with this result, it was cool to surf against Macy,” Kelly said. “It would have been nice to make the final but to win the JQS is amazing. I definitely didn’t expect to take it out this year. I’m really excited to head to the WJC, I never thought it would be something I’d achieve this year.” Zahli along with Alyssa Lock will lead the charge for the group of four men and two women from their region to head to the World Junior Championship with the rest of the Qualifiers to be officially announced in the weeks to come.

Kingscliff and Dbah Boardriders Off to Sydney To Compete in Salior Jerry Tag Team Final

Australia’s best Boardriding Clubs will face off at North Narrabeen Beach, Sydney this weekend in the Sailor Jerry Surftag Australian Championships. Twenty-four Men’s teams and Ten Women’s teams will be striving for an Australian Title as well as a slice of the $42,000 prize money on offer. The Men’s Champions will pocket $10,000 with the Women’s Champions receiving $5,000, which is the richest

prize purse in surfing history for a Women’s team event. D’Bah Boardriders will go into the event as the No.1 seeds in the Women’s Division and will be looking to secure their third straight Australian Title. D’Bah’s Freya Prumm scored her first perfect ten-point ride at the QLD Sailor Jerry Surftag Qualifier last month and is excited to be apart of a team going for it’s third straight victory. “I feel like we will be the team to beat and it’s a pleasure to be apart of such a great event supporting Grass Roots and Women’s surfing”, said Prumm. “With the richest prize purse for a female teams event on offer the competition is guaranteed to be fierce, let’s hope for cranking waves.” Kingscliff Boardriders, Snapper Rocks Surfriders, and Duranbah Men’s team will also be heading south looking to take down the National Title.

Casuarina celebrates first home ground win Hornets dominate Mustangs in tough match By Brian Laybutt THE NEWLY formed Casuarina Beach Rugby Club last week celebrated their first ever win and this week they followed it up with a thrilling win at home. Casuarina played a revamped Southern Cross University team, who had recently notched up some very impressive performances and a recent big win against last year’s grand finalist Byron Bay. Casuarina coming of a win against Bangalow, were expecting a fast open game which is a characteristic trade mark of the students. Casuarina started the game strongly with an early try to breakaway Jack Jones which gave the home team an early 7 nil lead. This was quickly reigned back in as Uni responded immediately with a dazzling try from fullback and NSW country representative Dean Wilson. In what was clearly going to be a tight match the half time score saw the home team leading 13 to 10. Uni continued to throw the ball out wide to their fleet footed backs who made probing runs which really troubled the Casuarina team. Casuarina responded by trying to control the ball within the forwards which resulted in directed phase plays which was rewarded by a well deserved try to prop Timoci Rokosuka. The Uni boys continued to probe the Casuarina line crossing it four times, however their discipline in and around the rucks kept Casuarina in the match as Webb Lillis kept slotting goals. Casuarina looked to have the game all but won leading 23-20, but a scintillating back line play saw Uni score out wide in the last two minutes of the game to take the lead 25 to 23. With only two minutes remaining all seemed lost for the Casuarina boys, but with their never say die approach they were able to regather the ball from the kick off

MURWILLUMBAH VULCANS AFL Under 10 Coach Stephen

The new team of the tens fought a tough fight against a very silky smooth Byron Bay outfit. . It was fantastic to see our new comers of Billi and Jed charging around chasing the ball with vigour. Congratulations to Billi for shaking off a big hit and soldiering on. Great effort. The field was spread out early with Addis and Ben doing plenty of tackles especially on the bigger kids. Tylenah and Dougal played an exceptional game in the midfield chasing down almost everything. Oscar and Taylor proved their worth taking a couple of spectacular marks in the back line stopping sure goals. Sean and Kaydon played well in the forwards taking some goods balls cleared from the centres. Overall a Huge effort for a group with many playing AFL for their first year.

Under 16 Coach Dave

The great bunch of Vulcan 16s have finally made the big time thanks to an amazing merger with the Tweed Coast Tigers! The awesome combination of highly skilled, fit players, sharp and focused coaching and support staff saw us rock the Cats to the basement with spirited, disciplined and well linked up play. Although the boys had only linked up for match-time you would never have known it as they pulled off a comprehensive demo job on the highly fancied Cats at Round Mountain on 30

and retain it. Once again the students poor discipline around the ruck resulted in a final penalty. With zero time on the clock it was all in the hands of young goal kicker Web Lillis. Web was faced with a 45 metre kick, 20 metres off centre. In a calm, collected manner he struck the ball sweetly which saw it sail through the posts. As it crossed the bar the Casuarina players and supporters went up as one, for what was an extremely exciting finish to the game. Best for Casuarina were full back Webb Lillis, hard working back rower Jack Pick, hooker and Captain Dan Heritage. Next week the Casuarina boys take on defending Champions Wollongbar away, then followed by a home game against Casino on May 20, kick off at 3.30pm Come along and support your local rugby team.

April. They excelled in their second game together. The high energy performance from our boys at the start was simply irresistible with the Cats trying everything they could to hold us out. Sorry Cats! Our combined squad maintained the red hot play and rage to ram home an amazing and well deserved 60+ points victory! There were a few comments out there today like what do farm boys know about AFL? Our efforts show we know a lot going by the scoreboard. Bests: Connor McDowell, Dane Peterson, Blaine Thomas, Charlie Trevaskis, Hayden Marks. Zane Zuschke’s game was the best I have seen him play. Well done Zane. The list goes on! Every boy has a role and executed their positions very well! We couldn’t be prouder! Well done to all the coaching staff and parents that have helped get us on the park every week! Our next game is Sunday 14/05/2017 against Coolangatta at home 2.30 start. This will be a real grudge match that the boys are looking forward to.

IT WAS hard fought battle between fierce rivals the Cudgen Hornets and the Murwillumbah Mustangs on Sunday, May 7, at the Ned Byrne Oval. Cudgen came out strong with a home ground advantage and maintained a heavy defensive lineup against a tough Murwillumbah side. Tensions were running high on the field with several scuffles breaking out in the second half and two players sinbinned for 10 minutes following an altercation. Play resumed but another nasty tackle left one Mustang player with a suspected concussion, which resulted in suspended play as an ambulance was called to assist. Although shaken the Mustangs player was able to make it to his feet and was taken

AFL TALENT PROGRAM

AFL talent shone brightly in Murwillumbah once again with the stunning local efforts in a small group of Northern Rivers boys representing North Zone at the NSW U15s trials in Sydney last Wednesday. Murwillumbah Vulcans were well represented with locals Nic Ratliff, Jed Foggo and Connor Foreman Keenan. The boys were just great, playing with pride and great skill! Nic miraculously recovered from a serious training injury to attend and didn’t disappoint. Connor and Jed turned on the silky skills and hallmark, tough and determined play, to impress the selectors. Even though the two are actually U14s, they shone bright, to make the next State age group with just scintillating play! Next step for the two proud Vulcans, is the NSW zone challenge in Albury, in June. We wish our stars all the best and just know they will perform with the best stuff, that makes our great Club so Proud! Go Boys.... Go!!!!

away by ambulance before play resumed with Cudgen’s defence too strong. Cudgen dominated with a decisive 30 to 10 win over the Mustangs. Meanwhile, Tweed Coast Raiders have smashed the first five rounds of the NRRRL footy season maintaining the top spot on the ladder again this week after another dominating win against Byron. The Raiders had the home ground advantage at the Les Burger Field on Sunday, May 7, downing Byron 40 to 0.
