Farewell, our Queen

Queen Elizabeth II: 1926-2022

Locals lined the foreshore to get a glimpse of Queen Elizabeth II, Prince Philip and Princess Anne when they visited on April 22, 1970.

Jenny Creek and Margaret Rootsey presented a key to Her Majesty at the opening of James Cook Museum.

The Queen comes to Cooktown:

J

UST 450 people lived in Cooktown when Queen Elizabeth II sailed in on April 22, 1970.

It was actually quicker for Her Majesty to travel by sea than road back then, such was the state of the road.

Accompanied by His Royal Highness, the late Prince Philip, and their daughter Princess Anne, there was a buzz in the air when the Brittania appeared in the Endeavour River.

The Royal Family even brought their own Rolls Royce, which was hoisted off the vessel and used to transport the Queen to different parts of Cooktown.

Officially there to open the James Cook Museum and unveil a plaque and rock at the site where the Endeavour was brought in for repairs in 1770, the Queen was reportedly delighted with being able to attend a small town and immerse herself with local culture.

Jenny Creek now lives in Coen but can still remember her brush with royalty.

“I went to Cooktown school and they were going around the classroom saying the Queen’s coming to visit Cooktown,” she said.

“They were saying we need

some girls to present the key (to the front door of the newly refurbished James Cook Museum) and flowers to the Queen.

“A lot of girls put their hands up and I was chosen. We always talk about this.

“My niece put a photo of myself and Margaret (Rootsey, one of the other four girls, now deceased) on Facebook, saying this looks like you, is this you? It gave me goosebumps.”

Ms Creek said a lot of preparation went into the visit.

“We had to do training, get our outfit all fitted, pink little dress

and pink stockings,” she told Cape York Weekly.

“We had to train how to walk with books on our heads and curtsy.

“Every afternoon after school we went out and tried our dresses and kept practising our walk.

“I was just excited, I wasn’t nervous. I was excited really to meet the Queen. (Prince Philip) was there but we didn’t meet him, it was the Queen we focused on.”

Irene Bowyer (nee Doughboy) also had a royal interaction.

“I’d just turned 12 about five days before. I think they picked me because old Granddad Doughboy

was the King from Wujal and they sat right next to the stage, all done up in their glad rags,” she said.

As reported by Australian Associated Press at the time: “Queen Elizabeth met another monarch – Mr George Doughboy, the ‘king’ of the Bloomfield District aboriginals. Mr Doughboy, a small man wearing a brass plate inscribed with his rank around his neck, is believed to be about 100 years old.”

Granddaughter Irene recalled: “Everyone had to dress up with the hats and gloves.

“Me and Yvonne Palmer were the girls that welcomed them (the royals) to Cooktown. I gave flowers and had to do the curtsy, while Yvonne gave flowers to Princess Anne, who was behind the Queen.

“We were the first ones to meet them at the Queen’s steps. They asked us a few questions, asked about our age, if we liked school.

“I was such a shy kid, it was so scary. We had training for weeks before.

“I didn’t even hang around town (after meeting the Queen), I lived out of town past the racecourse, I got on my pushbike and rode straight home.

“I just remember she looked very pretty; as a kid I was thinking she looked really beautiful.”

Lyn Potter, a former nurse, took photographs of the Queen during her visit to Cooktown.

“I wasn’t part of organising it but I made dresses for the four girls who presented flowers to the Queen,” she said from Cairns.

“Two of the girls had pink and two had aqua. The girls in pink presented flowers to her at the museum and the other two at the wharf when she arrived.

“We all pitched in. A Royal tour was something we’d never had before and we had to get it right. “(The Queen) was only there for a few hours. She arrived and had the welcome down at the waterfront.

“She was lovely. She reminded me of my mother. She had a lovely, friendly face.

“I didn’t get a photo with her because I was never in the right place. My husband at the time did.

“He was in a line of sailors shaking hands along with his brother.

“My children love that photo.

“Over the years, I’ve collected pictures of the Queen. I’ve watched her grow up.”

Cooktown’s population swelled as a result of the Royal visit, with many locals now saying it helped restore town pride and build a resurgance in local commerce, leading to future growth.

locals look back on HRM’s visit THE WAY IT WAS WHILE Cooktown’s population had stagnated, visitors came from far and wide for the visit.

The Cairns Post said: “Roads from Cairns to Cooktown for the Royal visit next week are now restored and in as good a condition as they have been for the past 15 years, the administrator of the Cook Shire (Mr G. D. Gallop) said.

“There should be no difficulty driving to Cooktown within the next few days provided due caution is exercised at gully crossings,” Mr Gallop said.

Cooktown, which once boasted a population of 30,000 in the gold rush and more than 30 hotels, had to bring in reinforcements for the swell in visitors, who came from across the Peninsula to see the Queen.

Thirty tents and 100 beds were sent by the army to Cooktown to cater for any overflow from hotels and caravan parks.

Mr Gallop said the crowd should show their appreciation.

“Considering the fact that the Royal family has seen fit to honour such as sparsely populated area at a small sea-side town because of its connotations surely marks this

The Queen, who had just turned 44, made the effort to say hello to all members of the re-enactment party.

visit to Cooktown as one of the most important events of the Royal tour,” he said.

ISLANDERS POPULAR THE reporting of the Queen’s visit was brutal from the wire service.

Under the headline “Wild war dance upsets aboriginals Royal

plans”, AAP reported: “The display by the Torres Strait Islanders overshadowed a re-enactment of the landing of Captain Cook 200 years ago, and upset plans for a party of local aboriginals to wave spears and boomerangs at Cook’s landing party.

The Torres Strait Island performers stole the show, according to media reports at the time.

“Organisers blamed the presence of 40 husky islanders for the failure of 15 aboriginals to appear for the pageant.

“Only five were at the shore when the landing was staged.

“The islanders, wearing Emu and Cockatoo feather headdress

and war paint, danced in a symbolic battle between New Guinea hillmen and Torres Strait Islanders.

“George Blanco, of Murray Island, played the islanders’ leader, Beizan, and Kala Waia of Saibai Island, played Kuian Wakemab, the New Guinea leader.”

A NEW ERA CURRENT Cook Shire mayor Peter Scott wasn’t living at Cooktown in 1970 but said the Queen’s visit was still fondly remembered.

“People still come up to me and share their memories of that day,” he said on Friday.

“It brought a lot of joy to a lot of people when she visited.”

The mayor said her passing would be felt for a long time.

“She was a bit of glue, not just for the British but for the whole Commonwealth,” he said.

“A lot of people looked to her for solidarity and continuity. She was solid as a rock in her manner, her approach and leadership.”

Cr Scott said he believed the Queen’s passing would start a new referendum movement to make Australia a republic.

“I think we’ll see that bob up.”

The late Prince Philip and Queen Elizabeth II were regular visitors to Australia. Twenty years ago, they were introduced to Warren Entsch, who was wearing a Cooktown-made tropical shirt.

How a Cooktown seamstress put together an unforgettable outfit

K

ATHY Stapley will never forget her tropical formal wear that left the late Queen Elizabeth in stitches.

In 2002, the former Cooktown seamstress was honoured to attend an event in Cairns for the Royal Flying Doctor’s Service with Her Majesty in attendance.

Member for Leichhardt Warren Entsch was also invited and soon requested Mrs Stapley tailor him a shirt for the occasion.

“I remember the conversation went something along the lines of ‘Kath, I’m going to meet the Queen. We need to show her and the Duke what we’re really like up here’,” Mrs Stapley said.

Despite the dress code being strictly formal, Mr Entsch’s sartorial specifications left Mrs Stapley worried.

“It had to be tropical, bright, colourful and cheerful,” she said.

“To be honest, I was a bit frightened I’d get locked up and taken away for being disrespectful.

“But then I thought, Warren’s the one who was going to be wearing it, not me.”

Mr Entsch meanwhile, determined to make an impression, was entirely unfazed.

“I had been pushing tropical shirt Fridays pretty hard back then,” the MP recalled.

Warren Entsch loves a loud shirt.

“So I had a reputation to uphold.”

In keeping with the dress code, the self-confessed “fabric hoarder” fashioned a bright yellow formal shirt featuring multi-coloured macaws and tropical foliage.

“I wasn’t given much notice,” Mrs Stapley said.

“Shirts are quite fiddly. You’ve got buttonholes and the collar.

“It’s a very labour intensive job but I got it done with a few days to spare.

“I’d made Warren a few shirts by then and thankfully, there was a shop in Cairns that had really special prints that I’d buy with colourful crocodiles and things like that.”

Mr Entsch said the shirt made quite the impression with Prince Phillip, who reportedly chortled

upon seeing it. “Everyone else was sweating in their tuxedos inside an RFDS hangar,” he said.

“A few dignitaries turned their noses at it but I think they loved it.”

The Member for Leichhardt even passed on “his personal tailor’s details” in case the Queen wanted to buy her husband something similar.

Mrs Stapley said she never heard from the royal family but is tickled to know she custom made a garment worn in the Queen’s honour.

“Sewing was really just a hobby,” she said.

“But I was born in England, so I am a royalist at heart.

“Seeing her in person, I was astonished by how pretty she was.

Even as an older woman, she was very beautiful.”

Mr Entsch said Queen Elizabeth left a remarkable legacy.

“She was absolutely delightful,” he said. “She was everything that people say she is. She was gracious and she was good humoured.

“You got a sense of how special she was being around her. She spent more than 70 years in service of the Commonwealth.

“It’s sad but an opportunity to celebrate a life very well lived.”

THREE ROAD FATALITIES IN SEVEN DAYS

Cape’s worst week

By SAMUEL DAVIS

AUTHORITIES are issuing a desperate plea to motorists on Cape York roads to drive safely following three deadly crashes and multiple serious accidents this month.

Two separate vehicle rollovers near Lakeland and Rossville proved fatal last week.

It comes after a Wujal Wujal man died on Homerule Road after a vehicle veered into Wallaby Creek on Friday, September 2.

With school holidays approaching, Weipa-based Senior Sergeant Warren Flegg said the rising road toll was alarming.

“It’s certainly not acceptable,” he said.

“Road deaths can happen any-

where. People need to start to take responsibility for their driving.

“Enough is enough.”

More than 200 people have died on Queensland roads this year with fears the state will reach its worst record in more than a decade.

Remarkably, the number could have been even higher after a man and woman were lucky to walk away alive after a van rolled over on Shiptons Flat Road at Helenvale on September 6.

Police lament shocking period on region’s roads From – Page 1 Cooktown officer in charge John McArthur said it was a lucky escape for the pair.

“The driver took evasive action to avoid an oncoming vehicle which had allegedly partially crossed onto the incorrect side of the road,” Senior Sergeant McArthur said.

“The van then partially rolled off the embankment, struck a large tree, and was then held up by vegetation.”

Senior Sergeant Flegg said witnessing the grief and sorrow families suffer following an accident was heartbreaking, no matter how long you’ve served.

“From a first responder point of view it’s something that we deal with much more than the general public,” he said.

“If you’re a police officer for 20 years, let’s say you witness two crashes a year.

“That’s potentially 40 fatalities you’ll have seen. Then there are the nurses, doctors and physios that have to help and support those that are injured.”

“It’s hard, especially when it involves young people,” Senior Sergeant Flegg said.

“Maybe you can’t contribute to society after the accident, earn an income or raise a family.

“It can ruin people’s lives.”

Later this year, the Weipa officer in charge will address Western Cape College students about potential dangers on Cape York roads.

“We have a mock traffic crash

and then talk to students about why an accident might occur,” he said.

“The feedback we’re getting is that maybe Year 10 and 11 students who are just learning to drive should be a part of it too so that they understand the impact of drugs and alcohol.”

Driving to conditions, particularly during the wet season, was critical.

“We’re already starting to see some early rain so there are a lot of elements at play.”

“We’re coming up to school holidays which will be a busy time, too.”

FATAL FIVE QUEENSLAND Police say five behaviours contribute most significantly to deaths and serious injuries on our roads.  Speeding  Driving under the influence of substances (drugs/alcohol)  Not wearing a seatbelt  Driving while fatigued  Driving while distracted (including mobile devices)

MAYORS, councillors, CEOs and staff from the region’s councils will gather in Weipa, Mapoon and Napranum over the next three days for a series of events and meetings.

Members of the Torres and Cape Indigenous Councils Alliance (TCICA) are flying in from all corners of the Far North for the quarterly conference, which will involve on-site tours to the Aboriginal communities of Mapoon and Napranum.

On Wednesday, the TCICA

representatives will attend the opening of the Mapoon hydropanel project and tour the town, with a focus on the new facilities.

The councils will then sit down after lunch to discuss key issues, including issues with the latest Census data, sly grog in

communities and financial sustainability.

On Thursday, the contingent will visit Napranum to inspect some of the new projects and initiatives in the community.

The councils will then return to Weipa for another meeting, including video link-ups to a number of government representatives.

TCICA executive officer Melinda Eades said she was expecting a productive couple of days in the region.

“There is a lot of value in showing off our communities

to other councils in the region so they can see what is working elsewhere,” she said.

“We’ve got councils coming from across the whole Cape and the Torres Strait.

“The on-the-ground meetings have been popular in other parts of the region and we’ve made sure we’ve allowed time to sit down and discuss some of the major issues facing our councils.

“We’d like to thank the Mapoon and Napranum Aboriginal Shire Councils, as well as the Weipa Town Authority, for being such welcoming hosts.”

Lakeland kids clean up Cooktown beach

COOKTOWN’S Walker Bay beach is cleaner than ever after a clean-up organised by the Lakeland State School.

The idea came after teacher Jeanette King visited Bathurst Heads and was horrified at all the plastic on the remote beach.

“I spoke to our students and asked them what they thought we could do about it, and they already knew of a few groups we could email,” Ms King said.

The contacts proved use-

ful and resulted in a successful beach clean-up, with four huge bags of rubbish removed.

Ms King said lessons the students were learning at school were having flow-on effect.

“One student whose dad smokes has a butt bin at home and she won’t let him put his butts anywhere else,” she said.

“I’ve been really impressed, they have all taken it on as something that they are going to change in their lives.”

ScoMo sledged over secret ministries A QUEENSLAND politician has called on former Prime Minister Scott Morrison to explain his “bizarre” role in Cape York’s long lockdowns.

The PM was secretly appointed to administer the Department of Health on March 14, 2020 despite Greg Hunt already assuming the role.

Less than two weeks later, the Cape was virtually closed off with movement strictly limited to essential travel.

Queensland Health Minister Yvette D’Ath said community leaders deserved to know who was in charge at the time.

“Mayors have a right to ask those questions,” she said.

“I’ll leave it to the LNP to explain their decisions.

“I’m proud of what we did to keep people safe and that included working closely with our mayors in remote Indigenous communities.

“But I will never get my head

around why Scott Morrison kept secret ministry (portfolios).

“It’s completely unheard of in this country and bizarre. “(Lockdowns) kept our Indigenous communities safe but that vaccine was supposed to roll out and be led by the federal government and they completely failed.

“It was up to us to have to step in and perform that role.”

Kowanyama Aboriginal Shire Council mayor Robbie Sands said recently the sense of isola-

tion took a toll on his community’s mental health.

“Back in 2020 as a newly elected mayor the Biosecurity Act was needed because COVID was an unknown (threat),” Cr Sands said.

“But as time went on, voices in the community became louder to lift the biosecurity zone.

“We were seeing other areas where it was business as usual.

“That time period caused a lot of stress for our people.”

Deadly vehicles to drive better Cape York health

By SAMUEL DAVIS

COLOURFUL troopies patrolling Cape York will encourage more conversations about health and wellbeing in remote Indigenous communities, Queensland Ambulance Service says.

The health provider unveiled two new vehicles bound for Cooktown and Kowanyama this week, featuring art created by designer Keisha Thomason in collaboration with QAS staff.

The Caring for our mob together work will feature in QAS’s offices, documents, ambulances and uniforms as part of its commitment to health equity for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples.

Mindy Thomas, senior adviser for QAS’s Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander cultural safety unit, said the artwork will also help break down barriers for patients.

“We want to make sure people feel a connection to us,” the proud Birri Gubba and Gungalu woman said.

“Historically as a government agency we have not had the best relationship with our Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander patients.

“This is a way for us to try and improve that relationship so that uncles, aunties and ‘cuzzies’ feel they can talk to us in a safe space about their issues.

NEWS IN BRIEF Public holiday for Queen AUSTRALIANS will get a one-off public holiday on the national day of mourning for Queen Elizabeth II later this month.

Prime Minister Anthony Albanese said Thursday, September 22 would be a holiday to coincide with a memorial service for the Queen.

“It will be a one-off national public holiday to allow people to pay their respects for the passing of Queen Elizabeth,” Mr Albanese said.

The Prime Minister and GovernorGeneral will travel to London for the Queen’s funeral, with the memorial to be held upon their return.

Mr Albanese said he had written to advise state and territory leaders of the holiday.

Emergency landing A PILOT has managed to glide into Cooktown Airport safely after reporting engine failure 30km out of town.

The single engine turbo-prop plane, owned by Cenderawasih Air, was en-route to Papua New Guinea via Horn Island about 11am on Monday, September 5 when it began experiencing engine failure.

Police, QFES and ambulance personnel rushed to what could have potentially been a serious plane crash, however the pilot managed to land safely.

The commercial flight was believed to have two pilots, but was not carrying any passengers at the time.

Ferry closure THE Jardine River Ferry will be closed all day for urgent repairs on Tuesday and Thursday this week.

Northern Peninsula Area Regional Council says the ferry will operate its normal hours for the rest of the week.

Aurukun road tender Mindy Thomas and long-time Yarrabah paramedic Claine Underwood stand next to the QAS’s new-look vehicles.

“Health is a very private thing, so if we can start to break down those barriers people can start to talk to us about things that are happening at home. This starts the conversation.”

The initiative is an important step towards reconciliation.

“We shouldn’t be shy about bringing Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander storytelling together with what we do every day,” Health Minister Yvette D’Ath said

“That is what cultural awareness and cultural safety is all about.

“We need to make sure that it’s part of our patient-centred care.”

Ms Thomas, who works as an emergency medical dispatch officer, said working in the health sector can be a rewarding experience for First Nations peoples.

“I never saw Indigenous paramedics or firefighters as a kid,” she said.

“We had a Police Liaison Officer but I didn’t want to do that.

“But right now, there are so many options for people to help our communities and this is an opportunity to encourage that.

“The more Indigenous employees we have within communities the better our service delivery will be.”

The QAS’s freshly painted vehicles will be seen at major events across the Cape in the coming weeks.

A COOKTOWN company has been awarded a sealing project on the Aurukun Access Road, which will complete the bitumen from the community to the Peninsula Developmental Road.

FNQ Civil was handed the tender at last week’s Cook Shire Council meeting.

“The road provides critical access for the Aurukun community and local stations to the PDR,” mayor Peter Scott said.

“With the impending wet season, the completion of these works will also help improve all-weather access.”

Works are anticipated to commence at the end of this month and should be finished by December, weather permitting.

Not only have Traditional Owners been handed back more than 360,000 hectares of land, but they’ll also get to manage it in partnership with Queensland Parks and Wildlife Service officers.

Jardine no more – National Park

By SAMUEL DAVIS

Environment Minister Meaghan Scanlon said many community members had waited generations to have their land back.

THE legacy of one of Cape York’s most controversial figures is being revisited following a major land handback to traditional owners.

Premier Annastacia Palaszcuk returned more than 362,000 hectares to the Gudang/Yadhaykenu, Atambaya and Angkamuthi (Seven Rivers) peoples at Injinoo last week.

As part of the agreement, Jardine River National Park has been renamed Apudthama National Park and will be managed by native title holders in partnership with the Queensland government.

The brutal history of the Jardine settlers, who served as police magistrates, farmers and administrators in the region, makes for uncomfortable reading.

In 1864, Frank along with his younger brother, Alexander, drove 250 cattle from Rockhampton to the Cape’s tip, killing Aboriginal people on their 10-month journey.

“These people were seen as colonial heroes by European Australians at the time,” James Cook University historian Claire Brennan told Cape York Weekly.

“They’re described as gallant in writings and praised for the way they behaved.

renamed after major handback “The view of them is righteous and yet we see them as violent men forcing their way through now.

“The brothers aren’t inquisitive scientific explorers. They’re settling cattle and they’re doing it because they see money in it.”

The name change reflects changing attitudes towards colonial settlers across the globe, Dr Brennan said.

“This is part of a broader move to deal with the colonial movement and assess it from the present,” she said.

“We’ve seen the ‘statue wars’ deal with explorers and colonial administrators who are linked

to atrocities in the past. In 2020, Western Australia renamed the King Leopold Ranges to Wunaamin Miliwundi.

Wymarra said changing the park’s name to Apudthama (which means “everybody”) was an important step forward.

“It’s been great to be able to have the opportunity to revive our dreaming again and for who we are, our identity,” Mr Wymarra told media at the handback.

“Who we are has been lost for many decades. Definitely it will be a brighter future for our kids, our grandkids and great grandkids.”

Environment Minister Meaghan Scanlon said many community members had waited generations to have their land back.

“This is about land justice,”

Minister Scanlon said last week.

“It’s about supporting the ambitions and aspirations of First Nations communities.

The land will be granted to the Ipima Ikaya Aboriginal Corporation RNTBC and the Atambaya Aboriginal Corporation on behalf of the Traditional Owners.

Also included in the handback is Denham Group National Park, part of Heathlands Reserve and Jardine River Reserve; and two offshore islands.

Seven-day trading soon for Woolies WEIPA’S Woolworths supermarket will almost certainly be able to trade on Sundays from October next year after changes were made to state legislation last month.

While Woolworths’ head office will still have to apply to trade on Sundays in the Cape community, it appears to be a formality due to the nature of the shift-working town and the growing tourist trade.

For locals in Weipa craving an extra day of trading, there is still another 13 months to wait, but there is some good news in the short term.

Woolworths has been approved to trade on public holidays, which will prevent lengthy closures around Christmas and Easter.

Weipa store manager Katie Farrell said locals would soon see the changes.

“The application of review of Queensland trading laws for Woolworths’ six day per week traders has been approved by parliament, allowing us to trade on public holidays.

“Woolies Weipa will now trade

9am till 6pm on all public holidays excluding Christmas day, Labour Day, Anzac Day and Good Friday, in line with all other stores in the state.

“We will now be open on the public holiday on October 3 from 9am till 6pm.”

Not everyone is in favour of the changes, though.

Katter’s Australian Party has spoken out against the changes, claiming it has an impact on independent grocers.

“These smaller retailers simply cannot compete with the big fish – across the board, whether it’s buying powers, staff wages, advertising, they are undercut at every turn,” KAP’s Robbie Katter said.

“The debate of this issue is often incorrectly summed up as one of ‘what’s more convenient?’, but it is about so much more than that in the long run.

“It is about who we want to ultimately control our retail sector and it’s about which businesses give back to our communities and are therefore more important.”

Minister delivers for Kowy kids QUEENSLAND’S Police Minister has delivered a special gift to children in Cape York.

Following the state government’s community cabinet held on Thursday Island last week, Mark Ryan flew to Kowanyama to meet with mayor Robbie Sands.

During his stay, the community’s ministerial champion stopped

by Kowanyama State School with clothes courtesy of Uniforms 4 Kids for students.

“These items are made from donated uniforms of frontline first re-

sponders and emergency services officers and are always a great hit with the kids,” the MP said.

Mr Ryan also visited the community police station and discussed regional challenges with authorities.

“Historian Vivian Sinnamon has also set up an impressive native police display in the station,” he said.

“The display forms part of one of Australia’s most extraordinary collections of historical artefacts – all located in Kowanyama.”

Since becoming the remote Indigenous community’s ministerial champion, Mr Ryan has regularly visited Kowanyama.

“Council is doing a good job in the community and I was pleased to hear about the progress of a number of local initiatives,” he said.

Uniforms 4 Kids has donated more than 30,000 children’s clothing items since its inception.

Butler: Don’t be a Rick, see a doc

By SARAH MARTIN

RICK Butler has a stern message to others – don’t ignore your health.

The 62-year-old Cooktown man survived a heart attack after ignoring symptoms for a month, driving himself 20km to hospital and waiting overnight to be flown to Cairns for life-saving surgery.

Mr Butler said he was now on the road to recovery and never wanted to put himself or his loved ones in that situation.

“All because I chose to ignore the very obvious signs of a heart attack,” he said.

“Don’t ignore or deny the warning signs as it could be the last thing you do. Never be too proud to ask for help.”

Mr Butler’s symptoms began after a head cold in late July and initially he put them down to the cold not clearing up.

“I fatigued much quicker than usual, and my workmates kept asking if I was OK, but their concern made me feel old and useless so I told them I was OK and that I felt great,” he said.

“I told my wife Hazel a couple of times that my chest felt tight, but I self-diagnosed it as being part of the cold.”

Mrs Butler said she urged her husband to seek medical attention.

He then began experiencing sharp chest pains after heavy lifting, but decided it was the cold moving to his chest, or a pulled muscle.

Butler can’t wait to get back out on the Cooktown golf course.

Rick and Hazel Butler can smile now after Rick had a near-miss from ignoring his heart attack symptoms.

“This continued for most of August and I knew something wasn’t right but I stubbornly ignored it,” he said.

“Three weeks later I had pain shooting up my left arm, my chest was getting tighter and tighter, I had to rest in between jobs, and all my colleagues were urging me to go to hospital and get checked out, but each and every time I fobbed it off, telling them I was OK – I was in full denial.”

Mr Butler told himself the excruciating chest pain keeping him awake at night was indigestion, chomped down some heavy duty painkillers and kept on showing up for work.

“Deep down I knew it was not that, but something worse, but I didn’t want to believe it,” he said.

On September 25, he went to bed with mild chest pains peppered with the odd sharp pain.

By midnight the pain was “eight out of 10” and Mr Butler woke up his wife and told her they needed to go to hospital.

“We live 22km from town and rather than call an ambulance I drove myself to hospital,” he said.

“On the way, and in severe pain, we ended up behind, of all vehicles, an ambulance – but still, rather than toot the horn and get them to pull over and help me, I told Hazel I wished they’d hurry up!”

Mr Butler said his response upon arriving at hospital and being told he was in the middle of a heart attack was, “Yep, I thought so,” but up until that moment he really hadn’t allowed himself to think it could be one.

“I didn’t believe it until they told me at the hospital. Before that, it was excuse after excuse for it to be anything else.”

Mr Butler said the “angels” at the Cooktown Hospital were amazing in their care and concern for him, and told him he needed to get to Cairns pronto, but that wasn’t to eventuate for another five hours.

“It was too windy for the chop-

per to land, and the fixed wing Flying Doctors were up the Cape for multiple emergencies that night,” he said.

“Once at Cairns Base Hospital it all went according to plan, a stent was put in my clogged up artery and I was sent off to the cardiac recovery ward.”

Following his life-saving surgery, Mr Butler said he had turned over a new leaf and was determined to improve his health.

He was also a new supporter of the Far North Queensland Hospital Foundation, whose annual Cairns to Cooktown charity bike ride, the Cardiac Challenge, raises funds for the Cairns Base Hospital’s cardiac unit.

“I absolutely will be supporting them, they all rock,” he said.

The Cardiac Challenge riders will arrive in Cooktown next Monday, September 19.

Premier makes Cooktown detour

By MATT NICHOLLS

The Premier meets Cook Shire staff members Shane Gibson, Sha-Lane Gibson, Sarah Frew, Linda McNab and Ivan Hegamaea.

AFTER spending several days in the Torres Strait for Community Cabinet, Premier Annastacia Palaszczuk made an impromptu visit to Cooktown last week.

With Minister for Children and Youth Justice Leanne Linard in tow, the Premier met with Cook Shire Council staff and elected representatives, before dropping in on the Cooktown State School.

“It was a just a spur of the moment-type thing,” mayor Peter Scott said on Friday.

“One of her principal advisers used to be up here a long time ago and I think the Premier said that they should drop in and visit.”

Cr Scott said the council was keen to discuss some key issues in the region, including the push for a new Cooktown Hospital.

“It was a good meeting and we were able to discuss a few things,” he said.

“We really wanted to push our support for the hospital development because we know it’s basically been given the nod.

“The Premier said the full business case had yet to come to the government but they were expecting it soon.

“I think once it comes through it’ll get the approval from cabinet.”

Cr Scott said last week’s tragic incidents on regional roads proved the need for an upgraded hospital.

“Every time the helicopter lands here to transport a patient it costs $35,000 and it came here four times last week,” he said.

The mayor said the council also raised ideas to celebrate the 150th anniversary of Maytown next year.

“It was a productive visit and the highlight was seeing the kids at the state school,” Cr Scott said.

“Their faces lit up and the Premier was able to read a book for the Grade 3 class.

“She had limited time here and I would have loved to taken her to Endeavour Christian College and Holy Spirit because they are also doing great things, but it was such an honour to have her drop in and hear from us.”

Feral animals in for a rude shock

By MATT NICHOLLS

A NEW-LOOK Weipa Pig Hunt has locals excited with a record number of teams ready to take part in this weekend’s event.

And it’s not just the pigs that should be concerned.

“You wouldn’t want to be a feral animal in the Cape this weekend,” said Weipa Pig Hunt president Rodney “Redman” Brett.

“Pigs, feral cats and cane toads – they are all in our sights.”

The feral cat category was introduced last year with a mystery weight winner, but this year there will be prizes for the most feral cats, as well as heaviest.

It’s the same for the cane toads, although that category is for the young ones.

“We introduced the Toadbusters for the kids aged 13 and under because we felt the kids were coming down but couldn’t get involved,” Redman said.

“They come up with their own team name and when they register we give them a sheet and teach them how to kill the toads properly.

“We even have a fun category of best dressed toad for those who are really keen.”

Regular attendees at the Weipa Pig Hunt weigh-in should avoid turning up at the golf club this year as the September event has been shifted to the car park of the Albatross Bay Resort.

“I think there’s a lot of renewed

Charlotte and Demi were keen participants in the 2021 Weipa Pig Hunt and it looks like plenty are like-minded with 62 teams registered for this weekend.

interest this year with a change of venue and it not being so close to the Weipa Fishing Classic,” Redman said on Sunday.

“The fishing comp was back in its usual spot this year and that gives us a bit of clean air.

“We’ve got a record number of

teams with 62 registered, but they are all pairs. We did open it up for teams of three but most hunt in pairs.”

The weigh-in at the Alby will be from 2.30pm on Saturday, with hunters expected to be in line by 5pm to be eligible.

Once the pigs and cats are weighed in, it’ll be time for the cane toads.

“Then we’ll get into the Alby and do presentations, starting with the toads and then the main stuff,” Redman said.

“Tim at the Alby has been super

supportive and organised a band and we have comedian Michael Crawford coming up to MC, which will make it super professional.”

Redman said hunters had been warned about trespassing on land without permission and starting fires, which is not allowed.

THE search for Cape York’s mysterious freshwater sawfish starts in the region’s roadhouses and outback pubs.

Far from the shallow waters where they forage for food, display cases are mounted on walls featuring the curious creatures’ famous long rostrums and information about the species.

The exhibits serve as an important conversation-starter.

“We put the displays up because we want people in the pub talking about them,” Sharks and Rays Australia’s Dr Barbara Wueringer said.

“You can’t look after them if you don’t know that they exist.

We need to bring these animals back into our memory.”

Dr Weuringer has recently finished scouring creeks and estuaries in western Cape York searching for more sawfish.

Together with Indigenous rangers, SARA’s principal scientist spent two weeks on the Mitchell River hoping to find a “hot spot”.

“The sampling spots are determined by previous sawfish captures,” Dr Wueringer said.

“In Kowanyama there are a few areas we’ve been sampling over the years.

“We also collect environmental DNA (eDNA). So, we filter the water and that water may have DNA traces of sawfish.”

Last year’s survey of the area was cause for concern.

No freshwater sawfish were encountered but positive eDNA was detected at upstream sampling sites.

Dr Weuringer said population sizes should be growing.

“I think what we’re seeing in Queensland is not the natural state,” she said.

“But we’re still trying to figure out where those hot spots are because the animals are so rare.

“We know in the Fitzroy River in Western Australia where

Sharks and Rays Australia’s Dr Barbara Wueringer is conducting sawfish surveys in western Cape York.

protection (measures) of sawfish have been implemented over the last 15 years, there are large numbers in those systems.”

Reporting a sawfish sighting is crucial to research, Dr Wueringer said.

“Many people’s reaction when I talk to them is, ‘Oh yeah we used to see them but they’re gone’,” she said.

“But I think once you start talking to people about sawfish they may start seeing them again. This is a global hotspot.

“A lot of areas where there has been a lot of habitat development and fishing pressure is where the animals have disappeared.

“So we need to know about them and be thinking about them.”

Sawfish surveys are funded by the Queensland government and the Great Barrier Reef Foundation.

Sawfish numbers are still low in the Cape.

A Queensland government review of the Far North’s regional plan will take a look at Cairns and the surrounding region. Major infrastructure projects will be thrusted into the spotlight, including the much maligned Daintree River ferry, which has divided opinions in the Douglas Shire Council.

Far North to be put in spotlight FAR North Queensland’s regional plan will soon be updated, followed by Cape York and all other regional plans over the next three years.

Deputy Premier and Minister for Planning Steven Miles said it was important to update the strategic plans.

“Regional plans set the long-term direction for how our regions will grow and respond to change over time,” Mr Miles said.

“They advance diverse regional economies and support a broad range of industries, including manufacturing and knowledgebased industries creating new jobs in our regions.

“They also help plan for the right infrastructure to cater for the population growth, including housing supply, schools and roads.”

Mr Miles said much had happened since the Far North Queensland Regional Plan 2009-2031 was implemented.

“Our successful health response to the pandemic and great lifestyle has seen Far North Queensland become an even more attractive place to live, work and raise a family,” he said.

“Population forecasts from 2009 are outdated. In the 2006 census 122,731 lived in the greater Cairns region. That grew to 253,748 at the 2021 census.

“Updating the regional plan to reflect the latest forecasts is crucial to provide the basis for identifying improved opportunities for economic development and liveability across the Far North.

“This informs important levers such as the planning and delivery of infrastructure and services, and connections across council areas.”

Member for Barron River Craig Crawford said the state government had listened to local governments, stakeholders and the community.

“Mayors, councils and councillors, as

well as various advocacy bodies in Far North Queensland have requested a review of the regional plan as a priority,” he said.

“We have listened to those requests and are moving forward for the benefit of Far North Queensland communities.

“Through a new Far North Queensland Regional Plan, we will be able to address issues that are specific to the region.

“By involving the councils, community and industry in updating the plan, we will be bringing the Far North closer together for a brighter and more sustainable future.”

Douglas Shire mayor Michael Kerr welcomed the review.

“Our region has gone through enormous change since the current plan was implemented 13 years ago,” he said.

“Reviewing and updating the regional plan is vitally important for the local councils and our communities as we plan for future growth.

“The Far North is no longer a well-kept secret and, as we see more people from throughout Queensland, interstate and overseas wanting to call the region home, we need to make sure we are well prepared to cater for them in terms of infrastructure and employment opportunities.”

In Far North Queensland, the updated plan will be developed in conjunction with the Far North Queensland regional infrastructure plan, that will be underpinned by a regional economic strategy to consider and prioritise significant infrastructure needs.

Mr Miles said regional infrastructure plans reflected a place-based approach to better align regional infrastructure with regional priorities, recognising the important role infrastructure plays in catalysing regional economic recovery, resilience, growth and liveability.

“This is about getting it right now to ensure that a liveable and prosperous regional future is secured for generations to come.”

Cooktown teen sings at cricket

Ganga Giri is one of the headline acts at this year’s Wallaby Creek Festival and it’s become a favourite of the renowned didgeridoo performer.

Ganga Giri keen to return to Wallaby Creek Festival

By SARAH MARTIN

GLASTONBURY, Burning Man and Woodford have nothing on the special vibes of Wallaby Creek Festival, according to international didgeridoo and dance music phenomenon Ganga Giri, who is one of the headline acts at the event.

The quietly-spoken musician credits his success to energy, his mum, and a dream as a kid.

“I used to drive the teachers batty at school, always drumming on things, full of energy, so they spoke to mum and she borrowed a drum kit from friends,” Giri said.

“I loved it so much, she got a second job so she could buy me a drum kit and paid for lessons, and I really took to it – my mum is an amazing person.”

His passion for the didgeridoo started with a dream of himself

playing the ancient instrument as a youngster, which he revealed to a neighbour, who leant him hers.

“It was like the dream came back to me when I closed my eyes, and I taught myself how to play in a very short time,” Giri said.

Despite touring all over the world as a solo artist and with his band, Giri said Wallaby Creek was special.

“It’s one of those festivals

where you can wander around and meet people and get involved and be part of it,” he said.

“You can feel the community spirit, I love it, I’ve been there a couple of times before and I really like the nice family friendly vibe.”

The festival runs from September 23 to 25, with three stages of live music, as well as workshops, circus, dance, street theatre, and croc-free swimming.

TEEN Cape York songstress Amber Farnan wowed the crowd and thousands watching on TV after singing Australia’s national anthem to open Australia’s ODI cricket match against New Zealand last week.

The 19-year-old singer-songwriter, who lived in Cooktown from the age of four and is now based in Cairns, said she was shocked when asked to perform at the match at Cazaly’s Stadium in Cairns last week.

“This would have to be the largest audience I have performed to,” she said.

“It was surreal to be representing the country, and also scary. There was an immense amount of pressure to do a good job knowing that thousands of people were watching.”

Ms Farnan has been performing solo for the past few years, with her EP launched in early September. She has also performed with her siblings in their band Legends of Perhaps for the past seven years.

“We formed the band to enter Cooktown’s Got Talent competition,” she said.

Unsurprisingly, the talented trio of older sister Holly, Amber and twin brother Jake won the talent competition.

Refurbished hall ready to host festival COOKTOWN’S refurbished Shire Hall will come to life with the smell of popcorn and the glow of the silver screen for the first time in decades, with four films on show over five days as part of the Sydney Festival Roadshow.

Presented by Australian Theatre Live and Cook Shire Council, the films bring four of the best live theatre productions from the 2022 Sydney Festival, all recorded live, to town.

The films kick off at 7pm this Friday, September 16, with the Italian Baroque with Circa, a rollicking ride through Italy’s multilayered past with new daring choreography from Circa’s acrobats.

On Saturday a 2pm movie matinee will feature Prehistoric Picnic, followed by The Pulse.

Prehistoric Picnic will take viewers back 65 million years with towering three-metre tall thunderbirds, against the spectacular backdrop of the Sydney Royal Botanic

Gardens. The Pulse is a physical theatre treat, featuring 24 bodies and 26 voices.

Sunday’s offerings are Prehistoric Picnic at 2pm and Stay at 6pm.

Stay is part-concert, part-story, part-ceremony and tells the story of two skeletons emerging from the dried-up creek bed of a remote Queensland farm, and the intertwined fates of three women thousands of kilometres apart.

Repeats will be shown on the Monday and Tuesday.

Cinema-style snacks and refreshments will be on sale by local community groups at the screenings, so bring along your bean bags, cushions or camp chairs and enjoy the movies in Cooktown.

Tickets are free for under 5s or cost $10 for children up to 16.

Adults are $15 or you can buy a $50 family pass.

Stock squad chasing unlawful cattle kills THE Mareeba Major and Organised Crime Squad Rural (MOCS Rural) is appealing for community assistance in relation to the unlawful killing of livestock in Weipa and Aurukun.

Police have received several reports this year from station owners in relation to alleged offenders entering their properties or cattle located on the side of the roadways that have been unlawfully killed and butchered.

Police are reminding the community that, even if unbranded, cleanskin cattle are still subject to ownership and cannot be killed or taken without permission or authority.

If you witness the unlawful killing of livestock or receive information in relation to these matters, please contact Crime Stoppers or police.

“We encourage rural communities to remain vigilant, including regularly inspecting firearms and ensuring they are secured, reporting any suspicious behaviour or stock theft and consider developing strategies to deter offending, including signage and the use of farm cameras,” a police spokesperson said.

To report stolen livestock, contact Policelink and your report will be passed on to district MOCS officers.

Bryan Fertil with his bike at the Tip of Cape York after cycling all the way from Cairns just months after learning to ride.

Frenchman learns to ride, then cycles all the way to Cape York A FRENCHMAN’S outback odyssey has seen him cycle a remarkable 1100 kilometres from Cairns to the tip of Cape York in search of tropical adventures.

Bryan Fertil had never ridden a bike until two months ago.

Nonetheless, the backpacker decided to embark on the journey to Pajinka after failing to find a fourwheel drive to get him there.

“I’m just a normal guy. I have average fitness. I’ve never really done this sort of thing,” the 30-year-old said.

“If I had a four-wheel drive maybe I wouldn’t have probably done this. But it was a hell of an adventure.”

Setting out with nothing but food, water, clothes and a small tent, the journey took two weeks.

The long dirt stretches along the Peninsula Developmental Road were the hardest.

“I did 90 kilometres on the final day to get to the tip,” he said.

“It’s more mental than physical.

“You just have to keep going. I was totally by myself but I knew

there were roadhouses and people on the road.

“I met a lot of people, particularly after Coen.

“People would stop and talk to me on the road.

“They were curious and that gave me more motivation.”

Mr Fertil, who’s spent much of the last three years fruit picking, is hoping to get a lift back to Cairns before planning his next adventure.

“I don’t know if it will be on a push bike but I loved it,” he said.

Oliver Hanson and Ryan McDonald go toe-to-toe in the ring at After Dark in Cairns.

Mixed results for Full Boar fighters COOKTOWN fighter Oliver Hanson had a tough night in the ring on Saturday after he was stopped by a spinning back elbow knockout late in the final minutes of a fiveround muaythai battle.

The sold-out crowd at After Dark show in Cairns nearly lifted the roof off the venue as hometown favourite Ryan McDonald and Hanson went toe-to-toe.

“That was probably the best muaythai fight I’ve seen between two Far North fighters,” said Full Boar Gym coach Vince Parkes.

“Oliver has put everything into muaythai for the past seven years, and his speed, power and technique are amazing.”

As a result of the win, McDonald claimed a WMO professional title.

Hanson’s brother Chris Obodin also had a hard-fought loss against Tristan Picton.

There were some positive results, with Full Boar’s Sam Kenny victorious against Sebastian Maric, while Mariah Bowen won against Tammy Meers.

A huge contingent of Cooktown and Far North supporters filled the venue in support of the local team, with many turning out to watch former Full Boar fighter Jack McInnes have his retirement fight.

McInnes, now head coach at Rippers Gym in Hervey Bay, showed the crowd the skills gathered across his 60-fight career with a technical and powerful knockout win over Cairns’ Michael Sariman to take out the WMO professional heavyweight title.

– Story by Sarah Martin

Former Cooktown fighter Jack McIness (centre) had Full Boar’s Vince Parkes and Clayton Cook in his corner for his retirement fight in Cairns on Saturday. Parkes was his former coach, while Cook, also a former Cooktown product, is now a coach in Innisfail.

Cowboys just one victory away from NRL grand final NORTH Queensland hero Valentine Holmes believes Saturday night’s epic 93rd minute defeat of Cronulla proves the Cowboys are on track to complete the biggest turnaround in NRL history with a premiership win.

Holmes converted a Jason Taumalolo try 15 seconds before full time to send the qualifying final into extra time and then kicked a

43-metre field goal to snatch a 3230 victory against his former club.

The victory puts the Cowboys within one win of an unlikely grand final appearance after finishing 15th last season, and Holmes insists they can now go all the way.

“I know it is only the first week of the finals but that match was the definition of almost a grand final game,” Holmes said.

SPORT IN BRIEF Honours to Flegg WEIPA Police’s officer in charge might have to book himself with burglary after he took out the weekend’s Carpentaria Cup. Warren Flegg was in sizzling form with a handicap that’s probably just a bit too generous for a man of his ability.

Over the two days, he had nett 72 and nett 70 to be the overall winner with a score of 142, six clear of Jamie Hutton.

For winning, Flegg secures his name on the honour board at the Carpentaria Golf Club.

Grant Jamieson was the overnight leader after a nett 67 on Saturday, but didn’t back up on Sunday.

Nearest to pins on Saturday went to Flegg on 7 and Michael Newman on 18. On Sunday, Clinton Wonfor was closest on 9 and Newman picked up another on 15.

Hutton was Sunday’s overall winner with a nett 67 after an impressive gross 74.

“A big thanks to Carpentaria Contracting for their sponsorship of the event and to the players who battled it out in the heat,” the club captain said.

“It had literally everything – it was very physical from the kick off, it had good tries, good players, it was very scrappy, very good defensively, with big shots and it came down to golden point.

“I have never been a part of a group, and a coaching staff, that have been able to turn around a team like that.

“I think we had five or six guys

play Origin this year and that comes from what we started in preseason and how well we trained, and how we have played for each other.”

The Cowboys have a week off before hosting the winner of the Eels and Raiders semi-final.

Parramatta and Canberra play on Friday night and the Cowboys game will be the following Friday.

Toomey coming back to Australia for team event

Warren’s Wednesday, too IT was a massive week for Flegg. He won the mixed foursomes the Saturday prior and then backed it at the Wednesday Wackers with 44 off the stick for a nett 33.5.

Mick Foy was the unlucky runner-up with the same gross score, but had to give away 1.5 strokes to Flegg.

Mick Cerneka had the nearest to pin on the 18th, while none of the players could find the green on 15.

Brett Humphries claimed the Bradman’s in a field of 15.

Tia-Clair Toomey gets a kiss from her Weipa parents Debbie and Brendan after winning the CrossFit Games.

PROVIDING she can overcome a back injury, Weipa’s own Tia-Clair Toomey is preparing to compete in Australia in November.

Speaking to her supporters on a social media video, the CrossFit champion revealed she was almost a withdrawal from the 2022 Games, which she won for the sixth time.

“Leading into the Games I actually had a really bad back injury, and so it has really been just about managing that, and not to go into too much depth about it, but it was giving me quite a lot of feedback and it was affecting my training in the lead-up,” Toomey said.

“It was a huge relief to be able to actually compete and get through the Games.”

With her family visiting from Australia, Toomey took an entire month off training and is only now getting back into the gym, albeit slowly.

While it still isn’t clear whethToomey will compete again as an individual, she is hoping to rehabilitate her back in time to compete at the Down Under Championship this November in Wollongong.

If she’s fit, she will compete in the team division with Brooke Wells and Ellie Turner.

There is still speculation she will retire from the sport next year.
