CCIN Editor’s Column Sari Hyytinen THe gradual loss of assets and livelihoods in Australia is a threat from without and within, and something needs to happen – sooner, rather than later.

We have been too apathetic for too long and haven’t learnt important lessons from two things: world war history (that has been well documented) and what is already happen-

ing in other western countries that have attempted to support other cultures. These things appear to be happening because our contemporary western values promote politically correct (PC) culture and social change in Australia instead of realising that Australia can’t afford the current changes that are being implemented.

By prioritising the helping of other cultures we are continuing to place our country – that is already in debt – further into debt. It doesn’t matter which external culture, country or group we prioritise.

I have a social work degree and I have worked with Aged Care, Disability, Youth Homelessness, CSS and been in a referral program from CSS, so I have assisted people from various cultures and various walks of life with various needs. I am

well aware that regardless of how many friends I have from a particular culture or group I will never understand what they have been or are going through. My perspective has nothing to do with hating people from different cultures and their backgrounds.

My perspective has everything to do with wanting the Australian people to realise that we are soon not going to have anything left for our children to inherit. Having an opinion is good, but the polarised mentality of the Australian people that you see now on both on social media and in

the community at large is only good if it results in a social movement that starts protecting our own country and culture.

We need to protect our access to food, shelter and water.

By keeping farmers from making enough money to even cover their costs of production, we have lost a generation of farmers whose families have sold their land mostly to foreign buyers and corporations.

For a long time Australia has been (and still is) selling the best of our farmers’ produce overseas and bringing in imports that are grown without the rules and regulations faced

So now ask yourself “Who benefits if Australia can’t look after its own citizens?” Also, ask yourself how you are protecting the next generation if you’re voting for one of the major parties that are doing nothing to protect Australia from the invasion that has been happening now for a long time. Please stand up and fight.

Art Deco Weekend

jazzes up the Cassowary Coast Continued from PG1

In Innisfail, festivities kicked off on Saturday night with a Jazz and Champagne Soiree at the Queens Hotel. Cassowary Coast Councillor Ben Heath said Chris Lloyds’ tunes had Soiree-goers on their feet for most the night.

“The food, the music, the atmosphere – exceptional would be an understatement!” said Cr Heath.

“Everyone who attended came dressed up in 1920s attire which really added to the ambience and ultimately a great night out in Innisfail.”

On Sunday the crowd was taken on a journey back in time on the Historical Walk and Talk.

“From the jazz band playing tunes on the balcony of the Shire Hall, vintage cars on display on Rankin Street, to our walk around town boasting the historical stories behind our buildings, it seemed everyone had a great day,” said Val Robertson from the Innisfail and District Historical Society.

Councillor Heath said for events like this to succeed and continue to grow into the future it is important the local community gets behind it first.

“The success of the weekend really showed how this could be the start of something new in bringing people from afar with such a positive and vibrant group of people supporting our events,” said Cr Heath.

“We have the art deco facades and there’s a huge tourism market for that so it’s about time we tap into something that we already have here and make this the beginning of a world-class event in our region.

“Next year we are hoping for more businesses around our region to jump on board and drive this event to make our whole region come to life on the Art Deco Weekend, which in turn will really give a boost to our local economy.”

This event was funded by the Australian Government’s Building Better Regions Fund.

At the ‘Breakfast on Butler’ in Tully this weekend, in addition to enjoying breakfast and jazz, visitors and locals can tour Tully’s main street to learn the history of the Dorothy Jones Library on 34 Bryant Street, the former plaza Theatre on 72 Butler Street, Hotel Tully on 5 Butler Street and more. The morning presents a unique opportunity to see and learn the history of the town and will help the community to rediscover the beauty of the buildings from that era.

The Art Deco buildings in both Innisfail and Tully stand testament to communities rising from the devastation wrought by the killer cyclone of 1918 that destroyed the majority of timber buildings in the town centres. The lightweight, pre-cyclone buildings were replaced by the solid stucco, concrete, smooth-faced stone, and terracotta architecture of the 1920s Art Deco style to withstand the tropical storms of North Queensland.

These historical buildings have now stood for almost a century and have weathered many a storm over the years. With the success of this first Art Deco weekend, they also bear promise of helping the region to continue to grow and strengthen well into the future.

Breakfast on Butler Venue: Violet Smith Park, Tully Time: 8.00am (Breakfast by the Flame Tree Coffee Lounge) (Vintage Car Display) 9.30am (Art Deco & Historical Guided Walk) Hosted by the Tully & District Chamber of Commerce.

Silkwood QCWA funds diabetes research

LAST Friday, branch President of Silkwood QCWA Jean Rosendahl presented a cheque for $1,236 to Julie O’Donovan from Diabetes Queensland. The sum was raised by the Silkwood ladies with a patchwork quilt sewn for the charity raffle.

Each year the QCWA selects a subject for its State Health

Awareness Programme from nominations sent in by members. This year, members of QCWA branches are learning about diabetes and raising money for diabetes research.

The lucky winner of the raffle was Jane Waddell of El Arish.

Top children’s choir in Innisfail today THE outstanding musicianship of national choir Gondwana Voices will be heard on the Cassowary Coast with a free performance at the Innisfail Shire Hall today, October 11, from 1pm by a national children’s choir for treble singers being led by renowned conductor Mark O’Leary and pianist is Susanne Powell.

They will perform contemporary choral music such as Kenneth Lampl’s touching Lie Light Dear Heart and a Finnish folk song How Lonely is Your Shore.

Executive Director of Gondwana Choirs Bernie Heard said the visit is part of a Queensland regional tour that also takes in Rockhampton, Mackay, Townsville and Cairns.

“It is a showcase for the joy of singing and an inspiration for youngsters,” said Ms Heard.

“A highlight of this tour is the opportunity for local children to hear our renowned Gondwana Voices choir in con-

“We are just delighted to bring our young singers to Innisfail with a purpose to share the love of singing, perform new repertoire, and show what can be achieved when young voices are nurtured and given the

chance to shine.”

Doors open at 12.30pm for a 1.00pm start. Entry is free.

The tour started on October 5 and concludes on 13 October and is supported by Rio Tinto (Principal Partner sponsor of the Gondwana Indigenous Chil-

dren’s Choir), the Queensland Government Department of Premier and Cabinet, and the Queensland Government’s Regional Arts Development Fund, through the Cassowary Coast Regional Council.

Getting Oily with essential oils clinic SARI HYYTINEN LAST Saturday 17 people came to the Uniting Church hall in Tully to participate in YL (Young Living) UNITES – Rally/Wellness Expo.

“A big thank you to Mark Dewar for hiring out the Tully Uniting Church to us for our YL UNITES – Rally/Wellness Expo,” said Trudy Horniblow, an Independent distributor and the team leader for the distributors who came to help out on the day.

The participants enjoyed listening to Trudy speak and ex-

plained how the members had wanted to join a group that is ecofriendly and helping countries that are less fortunate.

“The guests enjoyed an oily-inspired afternoon tea, Free Itovi Scans, NingXia Shots at the NingXia Bar and a Free lucky door raffle,” said Trudy.

The winner of the raffle to help raise funds for the needy was Betty Colombini.

For those who missed the event last Saturday but would like to attend, it is also happening at 5.30pm this afternoon at the Bookshop.

Container refund scheme to launch

Jean Rosendahl, president of Silkwood QCWA, presented a cheque for diabetes research to Julie O’Donovan from Diabetes Queensland.

Kurrimine Beach Market

THE Kurrimine Beach Progress Association is holding its last Market for the year this Sunday.

It is an Early Christmas Market, only 10 weeks to Christmas and there are free Christmas Super Giveaways with a weekend at Paradise Palms, a family trip to a Cairns reef, a 1-hour horse ride for 2 people at Kurrimine Beach, and a $100 gift voucher from Avanti Bike shop in Cairns as the major draws.

Just be there and write your name and phone number on the form provided to go into the Lucky Draws; one entry per person. You must be present

to collect these major prizes, which are drawn between 9.30 and 11am.

There are also vouchers from the Progress Association, Kurrimine Beach Motel, TomKat Linefish, K B Holiday Park, and Mission Beach Resort to be won.

There is a sausage sizzle and Devonshire morning tea all morning, pony rides for the kids, cake stall, fresh fish, plants raffles, a 100 board and more.

Come on down for a fun morning at Kurrimine Beach this Sunday.

FROM November 1, there will be two refund points across the Cassowary Coast where you can collect 10 cents for each empty drink container you return.

The introduction of the statewide container refund scheme will give people an incentive to collect and return containers for recycling, in exchange for a 10 cent refund payment.

This Queensland Government initiative is being run by not-for-profit group Container Exchange (CoEx) and funded by charging beverage manufacturers 10.2 cents (adjusted quarterly) for each container they produce.

Cassowary Coast Councillor Jeff Baines said it will help to encourage recycling while also reducing the amount of plastic we see in the environment.

“It’s really important that we as a community recognise the impact our rubbish has on our attractive natural assets, including the Great Barrier Reef,” said Cr Baines.

“Despite the fact they can be

Page 4 Cassowary Coast Independent News, Thursday, October 11, 2018

easily recycled, it’s appalling that statistics show nearly three billion containers are used by Queenslanders each year and they are the second most commonly littered item in our environment.”

Cassowary Cost residents will be able to return eligible containers via the container refund point at: - MAMS Group depot; 5 Dickson Rd, Innisfail; Monday to Friday 10.00am to 2.00pm, Saturday 8.00am to 12 Noon - Tully Showgrounds – Mobile Unit, Monday; 10.00am to 4.00pm, Saturday; 10.00am to 2.00pm Queensland is the fifth state or territory to adopt a container deposit scheme, behind South Australia, the Northern Territory, New South Wales and the ACT. MAMS, who are facilitating the container refund scheme on the Cassowary Coast, will be hosting an information session this week to ensure community groups know how they can benefit from the scheme.

“This is a super easy way to turn your recycle containers into real cash!” said Cr Baines.

“It will be great to see our local schools, sporting and community groups using this scheme to benefit their fundraising efforts.”

A MAMS information session will be held today, Thursday October 11, from 4pm to 7pm to ensure community groups are up to speed on the scheme.

Under the scheme, only empty eligible drink containers with an approved refund mark can be returned to a container refund point for a 10 cent refund.

“Most drink containers between 150ml and 3 litres will be eligible for a refund under the scheme,” said Cr Baines.

“Some drink containers will be exempt, such as containers for plain milk, wine and pure juice. This is because the focus of the scheme is on awayfrom-home drink containers which are the most commonly littered.”

The public will be able to start getting a 10 cent refund for eligible containers from 1 November, 2018.

To learn more about Queensland’s Container Refund Scheme, please go to the Queensland government’s website via https://www.qld.gov.au/ environment/pollution/management/waste/container-refund.

What can you get refunds for?

You can get refunds for most aluminium, steel, glass, plastic and paperboard containers between 150ml and 3 litres.

But some containers are ineligible, including: - milk containers - wine and spirits bottles - large containers (1L or more) for flavoured milk, juice, cask wine or cask water - cordial or vegetable juice containers - wine sachets above 250mL - health tonics - all containers smaller than 150ml or larger than 3 litres

Classic cars to tour the Cassowary Coast CLASSIC cars will take to the roads later this month as part of the inaugural Tour de Cassowary.

Hosted by the Cassowary Coast Regional Council (CCRC) and Far North Queensland Restorers Club, those with cars and bikes over thirty years old will tour along the scenic routes of Kurrimine Beach, Mission Beach, Silkwood, Mena Creek and through to Innisfail while dabbling in local tastes along the way.

Restorers Club member Allan Blair said the tour was an informal event for classic car and bike enthusiasts to meet each other and show their vehicles to

the public.

“It’s a really great way for likeminded people to get together and showcase their cars to the community,” said Mr Blair.

“The event is not limited to one make or type of a classic car - we are hoping a variety of British, American, European and Japanese vehicles will attend.

“There will be observation runs in the stages and one will be a time trial where you estimate your time for the stage.”

The Tour de Cassowary will run in three stages, kicking off from Rankin Street in Innisfail at 8.00am on Sunday 21 Octo-

ber.

“The cars will be at Kurrimine Beach between 9.30am to 10.30 am, Mission Beach from 12.00pm until 2.00pm, regrouping in front of Castaways Resort before they start the run through Silkwood to Mena Creek,” said Mr Blair.

“We will return to Innisfail where you can see the cars at the Anzac Park finish after 4.00pm.

“We really are hoping we can get a lot of support for this inaugural Tour de Cassowary so we can make it a regular two day event in the future.”

LETTER TO THE EDITOR Thank yOu TO COwley fire fighTers I would just like to say a big thank you to all the volunteers and urbans who came to our aid when a wildfire broke out and swept around and across the ridge at Cowley Beach.

The volunteers and urbans from Cowley Beach, El Arish, Mission Beach, Innisfail and Silkwood Hotel plus emergency response teams all put in a huge effort over four days working day and

night to contain the fire.

At times the fire was out of control because of the dry conditions and strong winds which kept changing direction.

Two ladies supplied and made food for the day and night crews who were understandably tired and hungry.

Dave from Spotless (contractors to the Army base) was a great support and gave access to the trucks for water

in this emergency situation while Jeff and Rita kept up vigilant monitoring and assisted throughout the long sleepless nights.

It is very uplifting and we on the hill are extremely grateful to this great band of people who kept our houses safe.

Cassowary Coast Cub Scouts travel to Maryborough Cuboree TARA WEBSTER IN the first week of holidays a handful of Mission Beach Cub Scouts jumped on one of several buses full of boys and girls aged nine to ten that travelled all the way from Cairns to Maryborough to take part in the 2018 “Going Troppo” Queensland Cuboree held in the Maryborough Showgrounds from September 23-28.

Cub Scouts from Innisfail, Mission Beach, the

Tablelands, Cairns area, Ingham, Townsville and Charters Towers joined hundreds of others from Queensland, Victoria and the Australian Capital Territory to partake in six days and five nights of skill testing and fellowship in the great outdoors.

Cuborees are held every second year and are a unique opportunity for Cub Scouts to interact with Cubs from Queensland and other states in a fun and safe learning

environment. Over 900 Cubs, Scouts, Leaders and Supporters were split into Villages with names that reflected the area and the overall theme of “Going Troppo.”

Activities were divided into four bases that focussed on Australian history, challenges and games that tested participants’ teamwork and initiative, with whale watching trips to Hervey Bay a highlight.

Mission Beach Cub

Scout Leader Cate Delaney said, “The Cubs have a week of fun but also learn communication skills, teamwork and working together, with an emphasis on participating in different groups and taking part in activities they may not get to do normally such as rock wall climbing.”

Children are not allowed to bring any technology: phones, ipods, radios, and electronic games banned, giving

them an opportunity to participate fully in an outdoor environment without unnecessary distractions.

Mission Beach Cub Scout Lucas said, “I wasn’t really homesick, I learned to keep my belongings tidy so that I didn’t lose anything, and I really liked the activities, especially seeing the whales.”

The next Queensland Cuboree is planned for 2020 again in Maryborough.

Interested children are encouraged to come and have a look at what their local Scouts group is doing and can join any time of the year.

Focus on Bulbophyllums at Tully & District Orchid Society meeting FOR 13 years, the Tully Support Centre (TSC) Emergency Relief Pantry has been providing locally sourced, non-perishable food items at no cost to vulnerable families in our community. During that time we have responded to over 15,000 requests for food and financial assistance.

We neeD yOur HelP This program relies on fund raising and donations to continue to provide this assistance. The TSC is proud to announce a partnership with Teitzel’s Supa IGA Tully to place a donation trolley near the checkouts.

This partnership will enable community members to purchase an extra item in their weekly shopping, to be placed in the trolley to be distributed to local families in need. Tin food, rice, pasta, cereal, long life milk, etc. It all helps.

MOre THan juST FOOD HanD OuTS The TSC Emergency Relief program is more than just handouts, it is a hand up.

In addition to providing food assistance the TSC works with community members to address financial issues, establish realistic budgets, and make referrals to further supports for issues that are negatively impacting on their lives.

In doing so the program seeks to build the capacity of the individual to better cope with issues in their lives and reduce the need for future financial assistance.

Teitzel’s Supa IGA Tully supports a lot of fundraising and donation initiatives in our community and I would

like to thank them for their support in making this possible.

MenTal HealTH Week The TSC is also proud to support the Queensland Ambulance Services Community BBQ and Mental Health expo this Saturday, October 13, from 10am-12pm at the Lion’s Park Tully.

Mental Health week 2018 runs from the 9th to the 15th of October. Mental Health Week is a national awareness event held every year to coincide with World Mental Health Day, which is held annually on October 10. Mental Health Week aims to raise awareness of the importance of good mental health and emotional wellbeing in the wider community.

There will be a free BBQ, face painting, Lara the Clown, and Mental Health supports.

The Tully Support Centre is funded by the Queensland Government through the Department of Communities and services communities throughout the Cassowary Coast.

The Tully Support Centre is located at 54 Bryant Street in Tully, opening hours Monday, Tuesday and Thursday from 9am to 1pm & 2pm to 4pm; Wednesday 9am to 1pm & 2pm to 6pm.

ALLAN Hughes, Life Member and winner of 37 National and State Awards led the Tully and District Orchid Society monthly meeting with his orchid blooms on Saturday and educated club members on the back ground of various Bulbophyllum forms.

He brought a range of varieties, some of which were in flower. The Bulbophyllum Phalaenopsis was a particular stand-out, with its leaves drooping down like large tongues from its 30cm shallow pot. The leaves of mature Bulbophyllum plants can reach more than a metre in length. They produce a cluster of flowers on top which

are dark red, and the odour from these flowers smells like rotting flesh. It is not unusual to see these mature plants selling at prices up to $250 each.

Their thin to leathery leaves are folded lengthwise. When flowering, many Bulbophyllum species have the typical odour of rotting carcasses, nevertheless there are many species with a mild and pleasant floral fragrance.

Bulbophyllum is the largest genus in the orchid family Orchidaceae. With more than 2,800 species recorded for this genus, it is one of the largest genera of flowering plants

The fabulous and bizarre species that comprise this large genus have been the focus of orchid collectors for over a century. The plants require high humidity combined with good air movement and most of them are ever-blooming, flowering continuously throughout the year.

They grow best at moderate light levels, but do not like deep shade. They can grow continuously year-round with no apparent dormancy period if they are kept in warm, moist, humid tropical conditions and are moderate feeders in cultivation.

These plants generally produce very fine roots which are

easily damaged. The plants react poorly to disturbance of their roots and the potting medium should remain moist at all times as most will not thrive unless they receive suitable air movement.

They are considered moderate to difficult to cultivate.

The Cassowary Coast region is ideally suited for these plants and are easy to maintain once a good environment is established.

The above points may be the reason why local hobbyists avoid or have very few of these marvellous plants in their collection.

Life member Allan Hughes gave a detailed presentation to members of Tully and District Orchid Society.

A Bulbophyllum-Elizabeth-AnnBuckleberry Orchid was one of the focus flowers at the Tully and District Orchid Society monthly meeting on Saturday.

Tully Horticultural and Garden Club Inc meeting THE Tully Horticultural and Garden Club Inc will hold its next meeting at the home of Gid and Margaret Fontana at 88 Gullotta Road Walter Lever Estate via Silkwood on Saturday, October 13, commencing at 1.30 pm.

Please remember to bring your own cup, a chair and a plate to share if possible. There will be a plant swap following the general meeting as well as giveaways of cuttings from members’ gardens.

Please leave the drop-off and pick-up area free for use by members who require that facility. Any plants and flowers

for Show and Tell and Question Time are very much appreciated.

To travel to this location, head north on the Bruce Highway to the Silkwood turnoff and follow the Silkwood Road to the end T-intersection. Turn right at the intersection and, following this road, keeping an eye out for the sign to turn right into Gullotta Road to No 88.

The Club extends an invitation to all members and visitors to take this opportunity to view this lovely garden and surrounds and we look forward to seeing you there.

with Katriina Hyytinen Hello

Brolga

ME and the kids had an awesome holiday in the red centre of our amazing country.

We travelled 6100+ km and took lots of pictures and saw Winton, Boulia, Mt Isa, Alice Springs, Uluru and lots of country in between.

Our home away from home was a motorhome,

Page 8 Cassowary Coast Independent News, Thursday, October 11, 2018

which was our home on four wheels. It’s easy camping made for lazy campers like us. Try it: you might love it like we did.

We saw these majestic Brolgas in Boulia and Galahs in Alice Springs. Galahs exist in most parts of Australia, and Brolgas (105-134 cm tall)are all over QLD and the northern side of Northern

Territory and North NSW, and some even in Victoria.

How was your holiday?

Any pics to share?

Remember to Stop, Look, and Listen. You never know who might walk past your life.

Blessings to you all.

Love, Katriina

report crime to police not social media

SENIOR CONSTABLE ALEDA DAY

combination people would put together, it is becoming more popular to report many pieces of information online, to community pages and groups.

If a social media post about crime goes up online, we are finding a number of people are responding about similar issues, and a lot of it is not being reported to police, making it harder for officers to solve crime.

I know people want to get the message out to their neighbours and their wider community about suspicious behaviour,

AS THE popularity of social media increases, some are beginning to use it as a way to report crime to the wider community. However, not all who post crime stories online are reporting it to the police as well.

It is always disappointing to hear people say that their house got broken into a week ago but they didn’t call police.

While reporting crime on social media is not normally a

theft or burglaries, but we do ask for victims of crime to report it to police first so they can be sure to assist with the problem and provide advice on things like preserving any potential evidence.

For crimes that are occurring and other emergencies, people should call Triple Zero (000). Crimes that are no longer occurring and non-emergency matters should be reported to Policelink on 131 444.

POLICE joined Premier Annastacia Palaszczuk to launch a new campaign as part of an Ice Strategy in Queensland. There are two targets of the campaign: cutting supply and treating those who need help.

The Premier said police efforts will be matched with a new Ice Help campaign to treat those addicted to the drug.

“We often hear of people being lost to Ice, that there is no remedy or return from this drug,” the Premier said.

“We want all Queenslanders to know it is possible to recover and lead a productive life.”

The campaign features six former addicts and their families who tell their stories not just of how they fell into the grip of the drug but how they got out if it. A helpline 1800 177 833 and new 24/7 Ice Help website give more support.

CCIN has a NEW APP

Police Minister Mark Ryan said specialist police are already hitting drug labs and dealer networks.

“The drug and serious crime group alone charged 2161 offenders with 7013 offences in the past financial year,” the minister said.

In 2017-18: - 139 drug labs were busted - 47 kgs of Ice seized - And 957 search warrants for ice and organised crime focused on regional investigations Police Commissioner Ian Stewart issued a blunt warning to those making and trafficking ice.

“We will maintain the heat,” the Commissioner said.

“If you are involved in producing and dealing in drugs, particularly ice, be warned: police will get you sooner rather than later.”

“There is no one-size-fits all answer to Ice,” the Minister said.

“Treatment is just as important as stopping supplies.”

Minister for Child Safety Di Farmer said almost one in three children who come into the care of the Department of Child Safety had a parent who had used methamphetamine (mainly ice) in the year prior to the child going into care.

“This is a complex problem,” the Minister said.

Mamu Health Service helps fight cancer with Footy Colours Day MARIA GIRGENTI STAFF from Mamu Heath Service in Innisfail, Tully, Babinda and Ravenshoe showed their sporting allegiances at work recently when they pulled on their favourite jerseys for Footy Colours Day and raised almost $300 to support children with cancer.

Fight Cancer Foundation and Footy Colours Day helps young learners continue with their education while they receive treatment for cancer. Every year, Fight Cancer Foundation calls on all Australians to unite in the fight against cancer by wearing with pride their NRL, AFL, Union or A-League team colours

for one day in September.

Fight Cancer Foundation is a national charity dedicated to providing care, treatment and support for cancer patients and their families, as well as funding vital research into cancer treatment and cures.

Footy Colours Day is a great way to bring community together as beyond the colour, fun, excitement, the day supports a very important cause.

All funds raised from the event helps Fight Cancer Foundation’s education support programs to provide dedicated teachers who each support up to 26 learners aged between three and 18 years through their fight against cancer.

More than 800 Australian children and young people are diagnosed with cancer every year, while another 5,600 will continue with their treatment.

On average, these kids will miss out on more than six months of school which makes it difficult to keep up with their class mates.

These programs help these kids to continue with their education, stay in touch with their school and peers, as well as stay at the same educational level as they transition back to their regular school routine once their treatment is completed.

Wearable Art Exhibition raises over $1,500 for medical services MARIA GIRGENTI AROUND 150 people were treated to a fashion show with a difference with a range of exquisite and artistic fashion pieces showcased recently at the Johnstone Shire Hall. More than $1,500 was raised for The Royal Flying Doctor Service and Prince Charles Hospital Foundation “The Common Good” in the event that focuses on raising awareness for these services and the importance of organ donation.

The ‘Out There Wearable Art’ was a collaborative exhibition by local designers Charissa Simpson, heart transplant recipient, and Lynette Duke and Marianne Coady featuring pieces ranging from daily wear to fantastical couture creations.

Eileen Bedford, mother of organ donor Stephanie, told the emotional story of her 24 year old daughter Stephanie who suffered severe injuries in a car accident six years ago. The family was faced with the heartbreaking decision of turning off her life support, but becuase her daughter had signed up for organ donation, four people were given a second chance at life as recipients of her organs, for which she has received letters of thanks.

“I met Charissa while I was working at Innisfail Community Support Centre during Cyclone Yasi and did a story regarding her being a heart transplant recipient in the ‘Talkabout’ news-

letter. When eventually I did get to meet Charissa’s mother, Lynette Duke, I was really touched when she told me she had kept the article I wrote close to her which helped her through the difficult time during Charissa’s heart transplant,” said Mrs Bedford.

Mrs Bedford also highlighted the great work done by The Royal Flying Doctor with transporting patients in emergency situations at no cost, while the Prince Charles Hospital is Australia’s leading cardiac unit which has been internationally recognised for its ground-breaking heart and lung transplants and triple organ transplants.

“Although no bids were received in the silent auction for the green and gold autumn gold ball gown featuring 1,000 Swarovski crystals, it will be sent to Prince Charles Hospital Foundation to be raffled off before their next annual ball,” Ms Simspon said.

A sterling silver and blue topaz necklace valued between $350 to $400, designed and handcrafted by Peter Smith and sponsored by North Brisbane Lapidary Club, was one of five gifted to Prince Charles Hospital and sold at silent auction on the day.

Miss Simpson said the amount raised is more than likely to increase as late donations are still being received.

“There are some people coming to try on some of my dresses in the next week which

for the biennial show, which is planned to open to members of the public by application only, as well as working with indigenous ladies from Weipa to

behind the scenes and on the day to make the event a success along with the support of the Cassowary Coast Regional Council.

Talented local designers and seamstresses Lynette Duke, Marianne Coady and Charissa Simpson received resounding applause for their efforts from the appreciative audience.

COMMUNITY NEWS

Soup kitchen an 18-year labour of love for Joyce and Richie Hodgson MARIA GIRGENTI FOR 18 years, two dedicated locals, Joyce and Richard Hodgson, have worked behind the scenes running the Basement Soup Kitchen in Innisfail and providing an essential service to the needy in the community.

The kitchen is run under the banner of Global Care and Harvest Church, which is a member of the International Network of Churches (INC), and operates on Mondays from 6:00pm to 8:00pm.

Patrons are served a hearty hot soup, bread donated by Coles and Brumby’s, followed by home-made dessert, tea and coffee.

Mrs Hodgson said she’s always had a passion for cooking, even having dreams about making soup as a child.

In 2000, Pastor Santo Gullo approached Joyce and asked her if she’d like to start up a soup kitchen.

The kitchen had humble beginnings when it started with

Joyce cooking food at home.

Over the years it has undergone many changes, from cooking meals in Dom Magnanini’s commercial kitchen, to a burner donated by the church, to an old commercial stove donated by Innisfail Senior Citizens, to the facilities of today.

In the last two years, the kitchen has been upgraded with a commercial stove purchased through a grant, fitted out with stainless steel which was self-funded with assistance from the church, plumbing and new dishwasher. The place is now air conditioned and much equipment, including crockery and cutlery and furniture, has been donated by locals and businesses.

On the first night there were 35 people, but at different times the numbers swell to 120, with over 200 people being fed at any one time, with the essential service being utilised by locals, backpackers and overseas workers.

Mrs Hodgson said, “The

journey has been amazing. I’ve met some great people along the way.”

Until three years ago, her husband Ritchie was still helping out in the kitchen, which he really enjoyed as he has a real gift with connecting with people.

“The kitchen has been a combined effort of the community, church, and volunteers who all work together, which enables us to continually provide this essential community service.”

“We’ve never been stuck for volunteers and when serving up to 220 people, miraculously we have never run out of food.”

The kitchen is a real bedrock of help for people in need and a great place for teaching people how to care for others. Not only does it provide basic food, but swags and blankets are also handed out to homeless people living on the streets.

Mrs Hodgson said over the years, she has taken lots of backpackers under her wing

and helped them out.

“I was touched one day when one day a couple of guys came to the kitchen for the sole purpose of donating money as they told me how the kitchen had fed them when they were not working and out on the streets.”

A class of 20 Year 12 students from Good Counsel College who are completing a Certificate III in Christian Ministry and Theology have recently been taking turns and doing

volunteer work once a week at the soup kitchen as part of their assessment. VET teacher Gabrielle Doolan said the nationally accredited VET course provides learning theology through hands-on and practical activities relevant to real life situations.

On Wednesdays afternoons from 2:00pm, food parcels are handed out to the needy at the Harvest Church, Mourilyan Road.

Donations of items such as cereals, pasta, rice, baked beans, UHT milk, pasta sauces and long-life items are always welcome.

Every Wednesday, the Sanctuary is held at the Basement from 9:00am to 2:00pm which is a social gathering for ladies only and provides a relaxing time of craft and personal pampering with morning tea and lunch provided.

Joyce Hodgson (fifth from left) with Year 12 students from Good Counsel College, Rylee Wallace, Kaelan Jenkins and Bethany Laksa, and volunteers Rob Farmer, Lynn Palmer, Manjid Mann, Tony Daley and Lorraine Dowley prepare for another night of providing sustenance to those in the community who need it the most.

Perfect weather for Innisfail & District Model Aero Club event MARIA GIRGENTI A GROUP of around 20 enthusiastic model aero pilots from Innisfail, Cairns, Townsville and Sarina had picture perfect weather conditions when they recently took part in the twoday Fun Fly at the Innisfail and District Model Aero Club at Sharpe Park, Mena Creek.

The day started with a pilot briefing followed by general flying, carrier landings and a demonstration during lunch.

After lunch was Old Timer (TEXACO), Most Spins, RC/ Bowling, Limbo (Electric) and general flying to round off the day’s activities.

On the second day after the pilot briefing was Limbo (Fuel), Lift, Loop and Land, Glider competition, and then lunch and presentations.

The club thanks everyone who attended this year’s Fun Fly event and helped make it a huge success. A club spokesperson said it was great to have visitors from so many clubs.

The club also extends a special thanks to all the IDMAC club members for putting in a great effort and helping out with anything that needed to be done and all the ladies who ran the kitchen.

The Innisfail District Model Aero Club, which has operated at Sharpe Park, Mena Creek since 1979, currently has around 15 members and is always looking for new people to come along and join.

The club caters for all aero modelling and has instructors to teach people of all ages how to fly with safety rules set by CASA. The club is part of the MAAA and over 400 clubs in Australia.

Further information and events can be found on the Innisfail & District Model Aero Club Facebook page.

Depending on weather, club members are at Sharpe Park most Sundays from 8:00am to 9:00am until around 1:00pm and all are welcome to come and watch and learn about the

art of flying model aeroplanes.

Results were as follows: Carrier Landing 1st Chris Morris, 2nd- Alex Torrisi, 3rd- Brad Granger Lift, Loop and Land 1st Alex Torrisi, 2nd Chris Morris, 3rd Anthony Macri Limbo Electric 1st Brad Granger, 2nd Anthony Macri, 3rd Alex Torrisi Limbo Fuel 1st Alex Torrisi, 2nd Mark Weightman,3rd Neville Parchert Bowling 1st Sam Torrisi, 2nd Clint Healy, 3rd Andrew Ryder Old Timer (Texaco) 1st Sam Torrisi, 2nd Alex Torrisi, 3rd Andrew Ryder Glider 1st Alex Torrisi, 2nd Chris Morris, 3rd Mark Weightman Most Spins 1st Alex Torrisi, 2nd Chris Morris, 3rd Dennis Bassett Best Demonstration Alex Torrisi

Safer Bruce on the way

A THREE-YEAR roadworks project has started on the Bruce Highway which will reduce travel times and improve safety.

The $104.1 million, jointly-funded Cairns Southern Access Corridor, Stage 4, Kate to Aumuller streets project aims to improve safety and ease of access for heavy vehicles, visitors and local motorists.

Federal Member for Leichhardt Warren Entsch said the project would increase produc-

tivity by helping to improve the efficiency of traffic flows on the southern approach to Cairns.

“This project really will be of long-term benefit to Far North Queensland’s regional economy —particularly the freight and tourism industries,” Mr Entsch said.

“Once finished, residents and businesses will notice an immediate improvement in traffic flows along the 2.6 kilometre stretch of the highway.”

State Member for Cairns Michael Healy said, “Works are to be completed in late 2021, weather permitting, and we urge motorists to obey warning signs, slow down, keep an eye out for changed conditions and to follow the directions of traffic controllers during the works.”

The project is jointly funded by the Australian ($83.3 million) and Queensland ($20.8 million) governments.

Stroke recovery research boost

STROKE Foundation has welcomed the Federal Government’s $1 million dollar research boost to support new, innovative and cutting edge treatment options to aid stroke recovery.

The Return to Life, Return to Work research package has the potential to provide new medicines to working-age Australians impacted by stroke.

Stroke Foundation Chief Executive Officer Sharon McGowan applauded the Federal Government for investing the future of Australia’s younger stroke survivors.

“Around 142,500 Australian stroke survivors are of working age. International evidence shows incidence of stroke among young people is increasing, so we must do more to ensure tailored services and supports are available,” Ms McGowan said.

“Stroke strikes the brain and can leave a lasting impact on in-

dependence, family life, finances and careers – particularly for those in their 20s to 50s.

“While advancements in acute stroke treatment mean more Australians are surviving than ever before, recovery can be a long and challenging journey physically, cognitively and mentally.

“This funding package has the potential to provide breakthrough treatments to those suffering from the impact of stroke allowing them to optimise their recovery and return to the things in life which fulfill them most,” she said.

The Return to Life, Return to Work research package has been funded by the Federal Government through the Medical Research Future Fund.

Funding will be provided over three years. The research package includes Australia’s first multicentered clinical trial of Perispinal Entanercept in chronic stroke.

This funding builds on the $1.5 million announced by Minister for Health the Hon Greg Hunt in August to allow the Stroke Foundation and Cochrane Australia to provide health professionals with the latest clinical guidelines and real-time research findings, to give stroke patients the best chance for survival.

Stroke Facts - One stroke every nine minutes in Australia.

- Estimated 142,500 (30 percent of 475,000) Australian stroke survivors of working age.

- 20 strokes a day impacting Australians of working-age.

- International evidence indicates stroke among younger people is on the increase in large part due to lifestyle factors.

- More than $972 million in lost earnings caused by reduced unemployment due to stroke in working age Australians.

Time to prepare for FNQ storm season THE state government has been Member for Cook Cynthia Ready Queensland activities encouraging Far North Queensland residents to prepare for storm season with this week’s Get Ready Queensland Week.

Minister Cameron Dick said communities from Burke to the Cassowary Coast and up to the Torres Strait should be prepared for the coming storm season.

“Get Ready Queensland Week is about everyone in the community doing their part to ensure their families, neighbours and communities are ready and resilient as can be,” Mr Dick said.

Lui said several activities and initiatives were being rolled out across the Far North region as part of the 2018-19 Get Ready Queensland program.

“While there is a big focus on preparing for the upcoming storm season, Get Ready Queensland is a year-round, all-hazards, resilience building initiative to prepare for whatever the weather throws at us, regardless of the time of year,” Ms Lui said.

Far North Queensland councils have planned a range of Get

AGRICULTURAL Industry Development and Fisheries Minister Mark Furner has laid bare his ambitions to make Queensland the aquaculture capital of the world.

Mr Furner used today’s visit to the JCU aquaculture research lab in Townsville to begin his campaign to entice further aquaculture investment in North Queensland.

“Queensland stands at the foot of a mountain of potential growth in the aquaculture industry,” Mr Furner said.

“We have never been better placed to capitalise on the decades of world-class research by

the Department of Fisheries and institutions like JCU. “And with markets in Asia hungry for high quality Australian seafood products, now is the time to strike.”

Globally, aquaculture is growing faster than any other agricultural sector.

In 2013, for the first time, global aquaculture production exceeded that of beef and this trend in global growth is continuing.

Mr Furner said since he became Agriculture Minister in December last year, the untapped potential for seafood enterprises to energise regional

and initiatives in 2018-19, and the Cassowary Coast Regional Council is presenting to community groups, schools and market days to help residents prepare for disasters.

Get Ready Queensland has provided $2 million in state funding to help local governments improve their communities’ resilience.

Get Ready Week continues to October 14. For more information about preparing your home, business, car and pets, visit www.getready.qld.gov.au

Katter demands extended time, scope for banking commission KAP Leader and Federal Member for Kennedy Bob Katter says there are “burning issues”, including the need for a reconstruction board, that aren’t being tackled by the Banking Royal Commission and he has again called for the scope and duration of the inquiry to be extended. Mr Katter was the first Member of Parliament to call for a Royal Commission into the banks, in 2015.

Mr Katter has long been concerned about the Commission’s watered down terms of reference and said it might end up being a “toothless pussycat.”

He said, “There are matters not being addressed and the current inquiry does not allow for any of these matters to be addressed. They’re going to point out the problems but they

have absolutely not the remotest understanding of how you address these problems.

“There are no recommendations and no ability to make recommendations. The people that know what needs to be done don’t get a chance to talk and I won’t hesitate to bloody volunteer my services.”

Mr Katter’s comments follow the release of the Commission’s scathing interim report that found a culture of greed in the financial sector. This is not news to Mr Katter who has worked to help victims of unethical banking practices for years.

In June, Mr Katter travelled to the farm finance hearings in Brisbane with 30 enraged farmers and he told the media, “We are now playing rugby league

$1.95m funding boost for best-practice produce in Reef catchments

A best-practice management program developed to help horticulture growers in Great Barrier Reef catchment areas minimise run-offs and maximise profits is being backed with a $1.95 million investment from the state government.

Growcom, Queensland horticulture’s peak body, will work with the Department of Environment and Science to deliver Hort360GBR Best Management Practice Program, a tailored initiative to help growers from Cape York to the Burnett-Mary better manage nutrient, pesticide, sediment and water impacts on the Reef.

Minister for the Great Barrier Reef Leeanne Enoch said the program will provide support through extension, communication, engagement and marketing, and aligns with other education and extension programs in Reef catchments.

“Queensland fruit and vegetables are second to none, but to produce the best, you need to be the best,” Ms Enoch said.

“That’s why the government is supporting growers with this best practice program, so they can bolster their productivity,

profitability, and ensure better environmental outcomes for our waterways and the Reef.”

“We’ve now invested more than $20 million in Reef catchments for various industry-led BMPs, including grazing, cane, banana and grains.

“Protecting the Reef is one of our government’s key Advancing Queensland priorities, and we’ll continue to work with the horticulture industry to follow the success of the program and better understand the industry’s needs.”

Growcom identified through existing Hort360 BMP data that extension, training and technical support could reduce risks and optimise positive outcomes in relation to water quality in the Great Barrier Reef.

This program will also lead to the development of a Reef certification scheme, enabling growers to be recognised as Hort360GBR custodians.

Growcom CEO David Thomson said natural resource management is an important issue for horticulture growers, with much of Queensland’s fruit, vegetable and nut production close to sensitive environ-

QLD to be world aquaculture leader communities had stood out.

“I have travelled extensively around the state, covering more than 40,000km, and met with farmers of all types,” he said.

“What really stuck with me was the ability for a range of investors, from family operations to multinational companies,” “I met a farmer south of Mackay who took out two fields of cane and replaced it with a dam full of barramundi and was sending tonnes of fish to the Sydney Markets every month.

“In the coming months I will be engaging with private companies and encouraging them to invest in Queensland aquacul-

without a referee and the people of Australia are disgusted.

“These are people (the farmers) that have been on the land for generations and generations – they are not out for a big quid – they have fought a thousand elements and survived – but they can’t survive with the cards that have been dealt to them. We hope this Commission gives us the leverage we need to get a restoration of the reconstruction bank – to keep the other banks honest. “ Mr Katter is not giving up on his steadfast campaign to get decent banking services, and he has introduced legislation to break up the banks (separate commercial banks from investment banking).

ture projects.

“If opportunities like this are harnessed and built upon, there will be a direct injection of jobs into local communities.”

Townsville MP Scott Stewart said North Queensland was primed to take advantage of the aquaculture boom.

“The North Queensland seafood production industry can lead the way on this initiative,” Mr Stewart said.

“Already we have seen successful investment in the region, but given the capacity the industry has for growth, I want to see more.

“This has the power to bring

more jobs to Townsville and provide a real injection to our economy.”

Mr Furner said the government had taken the first step in paving the way for increased aquaculture investment.

“We have established the Aquaculture Industry Development Network which will facilitate private sector interactions with government about aquaculture development.

“I want to see potential proponents getting clear access to government to align our priorities toward a clear goal.

The forecast gross value of production of Queensland aq-

ments such as the Great Barrier Reef.

“Using Growcom’s Hort360 software, the Hort360GBR program will assist growers to identify both risks and opportunities for their business,” Mr Thomson said.

“Growers will be able to develop action plans, supported by information, technical support and extension activities, that address agricultural run-off from farmland entering waterways.”

“Hort360 was created to help growers adopt best management practice. It is a computer-based risk assessment tool designed to give growers a 360-degree view of their farm business to manage risks and increase productivity and profitability.

“We are pleased the Palaszczuk Government is taking a holistic approach to the BMP concept and look forward to a continued successful working relationship.”

Hort360GBR BMP started in Reef catchments in August 2018 and will be funded until June 2022.

uaculture for 2017-18 was $125 million, an increase of 4.4% from 2016-17 production.

More than 500 people are directly employed by the industry in Queensland.

But Mr Furner said the future of aquaculture was not just in seafood farming.

“There are a multitude of applications for products to be borne out of aquaculture and related development.

“The gains from this innovation will drive better outcomes for environmental sustainability, regional development and the Great Barrier Reef.”

AROUND THE SCHOOLS

Digital young gun inspires business students at Good Counsel College BUSINESS students from Good Counsel College were recently inspired by a visit and presentation from young entrepreneur, innovator and educator, Scott Millar from BOP Industries.

Millar, from Brisbane, is the founder and CEO of BOP Industries which started as a simple keyring project and has now grown into one of Australia’s leading holographic projections

companies which provides personal and professional hologram displays for a range of different purposes and projects.

Millar, named an Advance Queensland Community Digital Champion last year, also shares his passion and encourages others to get involved in science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM) through his STEM-maker workshops.

Relief Business teacher, Mrs

Ourania Conomos, and 21 Year 9 and 10 Business students attended Mr Millar’s informative presentation.

As part of their Year 9 studies and under the guidance of their Business Teacher, Mrs Snodgrass, students were required to carry out a business venture of their own, and this is exactly where Scott Millar started, having carried out a business venture with his product, Hashtag

Scott Millar from BOP Industries discusses ideas with Good Counsel College students, Keira Senn and Anna-Louise Celledoni.

Keyrings, as part of his Year 9 business assignment.

In 2016, at the age of 15, he launched BOP Industries, and the students heard firsthand how he started and learnt essential tips on how to brand, market and design a product.

The presentation was also interactive and gave students time to create a product and think about how they would design, market and brand the

product, as well as who their target market would be.

The students proposed several innovative ideas within a short space of time, including pens that contained whiteout, to pens that lit up and even spectacles students could wear that would help them work out maths problems.

Feedback from the students was very positive and said they were grateful for the opportuni-

ty to listen to Mr Millar.

Good Counsel College would like to thank the Department of State Development, Manufacturing, Infrastructure and Planning and THESpace Cairns for supporting Mr Millar’s visit, as well as the Business Liaison Association for their commitment and the organising of the visit.

Scott Millar brainstorms ideas with Year 9 Good Counsel College students, Jeremy Baldi, Amber Potts and Karla Calleja.

Flying Fish Point State School celebrates diversity with World Expo Day

MARIA GIRGENTI

CLASSROOMS at Flying Fish Point State School were recently transformed and came alive with colour, music and dancing at their annual World Expo Day, which transported students to eight countries, included a variety of activities and provided a unique learning experience and appreciation of many different customs and traditions.

Students and staff dressed in the national dress of many different countries, received ‘passports’ and went on a leisurely trip of a lifetime without leaving the country as classrooms were transformed and decorated to represent the countries of China, Italy, Belgium, Indonesia, Laos, Fiji, Columbia and Aboriginal land and Torres Strait Islands.

Students sampled a feast of Chinese beef followed by jasmine tea and almond biscuits in China, created dragon-shaped fans and learned to write their names in Chinese characters.

Belgium showcased a café with waffles, ice cream and chocolate, chocolate fountains with fruit, marshmallows, waffles and ice cream.

In Colombia students enjoyed rice pudding, lime, coconut and sugar drink, coffee, took part in salsa dancing and learned about the wing span of the Condor and Andean animals in Colombia. In Laos, they learned about languages, ate duck lav and sticky rice, watched a video of the country and wore Laotian clothes and scarves.

Fiji demonstrated the husking and scraping of coconuts,

and students ate roasted coconut and enjoyed a Fijian dish of marinated fish with coconut milk.

In Italy, students made pasta necklaces, ate spaghetti and Italian Savoiardi biscuits used in tiramisu and listened to tradition Italian music.

Throwing boomerangs and spears, playing didgeridoos and clap sticks, boomerang painting and traditional artefacts were activities of the First Australians. gWhile in Indonesia, they ate miegoreng, learned about Ganesh, the elephant God of Balinese Hindus and how elephants are revered, and also had a go at stilt walking which is popular with children in the villages.

Student families brought a shared plate for morning tea and everyone enjoyed an international feast prepared, cooked and funded by the P and C Association.

The Parade of Nations kicked off the event and the multicultural celebration culminated in a gala culture concert in the afternoon which featured students, other schools and members of the local community.

Brendan Rexter and Topu Kennington from Tait’s Family Martial Arts performed a martial arts demonstration to represent South Korea.

Event organiser Mrs Stasia Abraham said the event was a huge success with parents, staff and their partners working hard behind the scenes and volunteering on the day, and planning is already underway for next year’s event.

A diverse range of countries, nationalities and cultures were celebrated at Flying Fish Point State School as students, staff, parents and members of the local community dressed up at their annual World Expo Day held recently.

Tara Clowes served up spaghetti and had a great learning display to celebrate the many cultural aspects identify the country of Italy.

Manasa Vakasogo with his Mum, Arieta and younger sibling, Tevita proudly flew the flag for their Fijian heritage.

BMP program delivers sweet future sustainably grown export sugar,” Mr Galligan said.

Smartcane BMP is helping CANEGROWERS build vital partnerships in the international sugar market because the program recognises and supports growers working towards environmental sustainability.

“Customers from food manufacturers to refiners are now recognising Smartcane BMP as a standard they can trust as they meet market expectations for sustainably produced food,” Mr Galligan said.

“Through the support of the government, the program is also securing the future of the vibrant regional communities that rely on the sugarcane industry.”

CANEGROWERS congratulates each and every one of the growers behind the 328 farm busi-

nesses that have achieved accreditation via an independent audit in the core modules of the program.

“Accredited growers are managing 77,497 hectares of cane crops, much of it in the Wet Tropics areas directly adjacent to the Great Barrier Reef,” Mr Galligan said.

“I encourage all of the other growers who are currently working towards that goal to be proud of what they’ve already achieved and to make positive and ambitious plans for the future of their farm and industry.

“This welcome funding from the Queensland Government will ensure the Smartcane BMP regional resources being managed by CANEGROWERS – staff and expertise – are available to all growers.”

CANEGROWERS has welcomed the commitment of the Queensland Government to the future of the sugarcane industry and the Great Barrier Reef through its support of the best management practice program, Smartcane BMP. “The signing of a new four-year agreement between industry and government is a positive and exciting development,” said CANEGROWERS CEO Dan Galligan. “We are great believers in partnerships as the best way to achieve multiple goals.

“Smartcane BMP and the farmers managing the 70% of the state’s cane area who are involved in the program are building pride and confidence in the sugarcane industry, meeting community environmental expectations and creating a vital market edge for Queensland’s

toon, for example – the ratoons get a bit patchy as some stools are damaged by certain pests or diseases and fail to ratoon properly. Cane grubs and Pachymetra are two culprits that can affect the ratoons and, of course, RSD which – if present – gets worse as the ratoons get older, hence its name “ratoon stunting disease.”

Once ratoons get too old, they are sprayed out and the crop cycle starts again with a fallow period.

RURAL REPORT

Herbert growers and millers head south for learning IT IS well known that sugarcane growers and millers enjoy looking over the other side of the fence to see how they can improve things on their own turf.

Thanks to an initiative

by Sugar Research Australia (SRA) and Wilmar Sugar, this ‘looking over the fence’ has taken a step further for a group of growers and millers from the Herbert region, with the group looking much further afield than their own district.

The group has just travelled from the Herbert region in North Queensland to Rocky Point near the Gold Coast and Childers in the Southern Re-

gion. The aim of the trip was to learn from millers, growers and harvesting contractors in these southern parts of the industry and discover how they are adopting practices that are helping them to optimise harvesting efficiency.

The trip was jointly funded through an SRA Travel and Learning Award and Wilmar Sugar.

Herbert Regional Operations Manager for Wilmar Sugar, Mr Adam Douglas, said that the group was returning to the Herbert armed with more information about the impact of cane loss and extraneous matter on a farm’s bottom line.

“Our objective was to meet and collaborate with Rocky Point and Childers growers who have changed the harvesting practice,” Mr Douglas said.

“It has been an opportunity to learn about the potential to increase profitability by reducing cane loss and extraneous matter levels.”

SRA Adoption Officer for Harvesting, Phil Patane, said that the trip was a chance to visit during the harvest season, which put everything into context for making best harvest practices work.

“Through research and demonstration trials, we know that there is potential to im-

gage with their peers in the southern region.

“We are all operating in one Australian industry, but also across a vast geographic distance, so this trip was a rare and valuable opportunity for the millers and growers from the Herbert.

“This was a chance for them to ask questions and consider how their own operation compares.”

Ingham grower Paul Marbelli said he had not had the chance to visit the Rocky Point and Childers regions before, so this was a unique opportunity.

“The trip has been interesting to see how other districts

are doing things,” Mr Marbelli said. “We can’t compare everything between regions, as there are unique conditions down here, but it has been interesting to learn how these farmers and contractors are dealing with their situations.”

This work adds to existing industry engagement on harvesting efficiency through a project through the Rural R&D for Profit program funded by the Australian Government Department of Agriculture and Water Resources, SRA, and the Queensland Government.

prove harvesting efficiency and therefore put more revenue into the value chain,” Mr Patane said.

“From trial results in 2017, it was identified that the industry could potentially obtain a 5.5 percent increase in harvested tonnes with no cane land increase and a $74 million increase in shared industry revenue if operating at best practice recommendations for harvesting.

“However, we also know that optimising harvesting is complex and a range of factors have to be considered. This is why it is so valuable for the group from the Herbert to en-

CR I C KE T WITH

Shane Muriata AS the sun starts to heat up in Nth Qld, so the cricket starts to make its way back into the minds of all cricket lovers.

With the approach of this summer, a new era of cricket has started in the Cassowary Coast as Mission Beach, Innisfail and Tully join to form a formidable partnership to take the game of cricket to the next level of dominance. After speaking with 3rd grade skipper and local cricket legend Jake Robertson, it’s clear to me that together we can really give this comp a shake in 1st, 2nd and

3rd grade.

“It’s an unlikely, but necessary alliance. Alone, we might go ok, but together, I think the Cassowary Coast will be a force to be reckoned with. I cannot wait until we really get into the swing of things,” said Jake Robertson/.

Listening to Jake speak about the game of cricket really makes you love the game even more. The format will be a little different, but no one will miss out on having a decent game of cricket this summer.

“On any given weekend, the Cassowary Coast combined side will have games at either Mission Beach, Innisfail Tafe Grounds or Mickey Miller Oval. No one really misses out,” beamed Jake.

“We will embrace it to make the game better.”

So, as the weeks move along, we will release a draw of sorts for all cricket lovers in the CC to attend at least a few matches this season. In a time when we have to work together to better the game, my hat’s off to Innisfail, Mission Beach and Tully Cricket for allowing our game to thrive.

Bring out the beach towels, BBQs and Shane Warne flippers, ‘cause the Cassowary Coast is about to turn up the cricket for an absolute scorcher of a cricket season.

Tully Touch trifecta in Townsville NQ Championships TULLY Junior Touch Football players put in a strong performance at this year’s NQ Junior Championships in Townsville over the long weekend. 85 children, along with their families, from Tully Junior Touch played the 3-day NQ Touch Football Championships and achieving outstanding results against teams from Mackay to Cairns.

in the semi-finals on Monday.

The 11 y.o. Girls, 12 y.o. Girls and 12 y.o. Boys teams progressed through to their respective Grand-Finals. The 11 y.o.

The club extends many

thanks to accompanying referees, coaches, managers and Junior Co-ordinator Maria Crema.

A club spokesperson said, “This has been a fantastic achievement for Tully Junior Touch and we look forward to future player development opportunities. Touch Football is an exciting game and we are always welcoming new players.

Call down to the Tully Showgrounds on a Wednesday afternoon to check out the action and see if you would like to join this exciting sport.”

Rookies2Reds rugby union holiday clinic in Innisfail MARIA GIRGENTI AN enthusiastic group of children recently took part in a Rookies2Red one-day tackle clinic at Goondi Sports Complex which was run by Russell Todd from Queensland Reds assisted by Chris Lowrey from Innisfail and District Vikings Rugby Union club who runs the juniors.

Rookies2 Reds one-day tackle clinic is designed to give boys and girls aged 5-12 an introduction to the best practice of tackling, which willallow rookies to progress to full contact rugby with confidence and correct technique.

The popular junior rugby program, Rookies2Reds, gives primary school-aged boys and girls the chance to emulate their Queensland Reds heroes while developing their rugby skills.

Russell Todd, FNQ Development Officer from Queens-

land Reds, said he covers a huge area from Tully to Cape York.

“It has been quite some time since a school holiday clinic has been held in Innisfail. The clinic was also run in Port Douglas and focused on promoting fitness and participation in the sport,” Russell Todd said.

“Rugby union is gaining popularity in the region, especially since the Australian women’s sevens won gold at Rio in 2016 and silver in this year’s Commonwealth Games on the Gold Coast, which is very encouraging considering it is an area dominated by rugby league.”

Recently, the FNQ Primary School Rugby Sevens competition was held in Cairns, and St John’s Silkwood U10 boys’ team won while Good Counsel Primary School lost to Holy Cross in the final.

Innisfail and District Vi-

kings Club junior teams train during the week in Innisfail and play every Friday night at Jones Park in Cairns.

Rookies2Reds is a Queensland Rugby Union introductory rugby program that gives Queensland kids the opportunity to progress from being a Rookie to a Red and connects participants with local junior rugby clubs and Rookies2Reds centres.

The program teaches boys and girls aged between 2 and 11 the basics of rugby. The children also learn about the benefits of a healthy and active lifestyle, which is promoted throughout the sessions, along with rugby’s key values of teamwork, fairness and respect.

The participation fee included professional coaching and a Rookies2Reds pack which included a drawstring bag, flat brim hat, rugby ball, ball pump and lanyard.

Cassowary Coast Cyclones 1st Grade Cricket team at Miller oval in Tully T20 vs Atherton at Miller Oval, Tully ATHERTON 130 all out (Shera Brar 3/20, Daniel Kempnich 3/14) defeated Cassowary Coast 76 all out (Vicky Kumar 22).

A disappointing batting performance after a great fielding display kept the current premiers to a gettable total.

After getting off to a strong start, Atherton was reined in by some great catching and fielding with Kai Henderson the standout. Unfortunately, the Cyclones couldn’t get going in their batting innings, and lost wickets at crucial times to fall well short of the total in the end.

T20 vs Rovers at Miller Oval, Tully Cassowary Coast 5/177 (Vicky Kumar 62, Jasran Kalkat 27, Shera Brar 36*) defeated Rovers 9/134 (Stirling McAvoy 3/32, Daniel Kempnich 3/22).

A complete reversal of the first match’s batting performance which saw the Cyclones pile on their biggest total of the T20 season, with master blaster knocks all through the order, led at the top by Kumar and closed out by the blistering Brar. Tight bowling early in the innings set Rovers down the path to fall short, and despite some late big hitting, that turned out to be the case. It was a passionate match in which the Cyclones let their game do the talking to keep themselves in the top four of the T20 competition. This weekend they have to start one-day fixtures when they play against United in Cairns on Saturday.

Cassowary Coast Cyclones Cricket B Grade T20 vs Norths Cricket Cairns at Innisfail TAFE Cassowary Coast Cyclones 5/111 (Michael Singh 29 runs, Narry Brar 29 runs) defeated by Norths 4/112 in 19 overs (Goldy Singh 1/6, Pavneet Sin-

gh 1/11) After a slow start with the bat, Michael Singh and Michael Zammit (19 runs) started to increase the scoring rate.

But it wasn’t until Narry Brar and Cameron Jordan (17 runs) came to the crease that the runs started to flow freely for the Cyclones.

The game followed the same pattern during the Norths innings, with Goldy Singh and Deepa Brar keeping the visiting batsmen in check. Although bowling was tight, the Cyclones failed to take enough top order wickets and the total of 111 runs was run down in the 19th over.

Many thanks to Norths for making the trip down to Innisfail where the game hung in the balance until the end, and was played in great spirits.

The Cyclones are at home this Sunday at Miller Oval, Tully where they will play host to Mulgrave Punjabi in the first of the 40-over games. The game starts at 12:30pm.

Bowls This Week Tully BoWls CluB This week it has been relatively quiet on the Tully Bowls Club front compared to previous weeks.

Wednesday Social was attended by six bowlers only.

The winners were Ray Wicks, John Taylor and Ray Downing.

Tully ladies Betty Cochrane, Clair Bourke, Avis Ray, Joyce Nash and Merrin McEvoy travelled to Gordonvale to integrate into a F.N.Q. side to challenge the Cairns District Bowls Association team. A challenging day saw 3 games of 14 ends played.

Cairns District took out the honours.

On Thursday in rounds of the Men’s Singles Championships, Ian Fisher25 defeated Ray Wicks 12 over 26 ends.

Rod Bradley 25 defeated Gordon Williams 18 over 28 ends.

What’s noted is the number of ends to come to the final result (first to 25 points).

In the Sunday Social sixteen bowlers enjoyed an afternoon of competitive bowls in the warming conditions. Winners were Ray Wicks and Val Zamora taking out a Tigers Leagues Club voucher.

Sunday afternoon was also the stage for a round of the Men’s Doubles championships. John Brown and Aussie Redgate 18 defeated Ian Fisher and John Evans 14 in an entertaining game. The challenging play and result of this game was a showpiece of the standard this year.

The new green is shaping up to expectations due to the efforts of our ground staff. A good shower of rain is all that is needed.

Keep on bowling. innisfail BoWls CluB On Thursday we had 28 players on the green. The winners were T. Burns, M. Achello, J. Messina, B. Smith.

Saturday had a very good roll up of 20 who enjoyed a game of pairs. Bragging rights went to L. Fedalto and G. Steve.

On Sunday a happy busload paid a social visit to Gordonvale for social bowls. As usual Gordonvale club members were excellent hosts so the afternoon was enjoyed by all.

Don’t forget to check the board for competition games.

Graham would like them played as soon as possible as Xmas is just around the corner and he is struggling to get the competitions completed prior to presentation night.

New Fisheries Act may shut down commercial fishers without compensation SUSAN FAIRBAIRN COMMERCIAL fishers at Cardwell have petitioned the State government to reconsider payment of compensation if a fishery is shut down in the event of an urgent declaration under proposed changes to the Fisheries Act 1994 through the Fisheries (Sustainable Fisheries Strategy) Amendment Bill 2018.

“One of the changes being made will replace emergency fisheries declarations with urgent declarations,” said a spokesperson from the Department of Agriculture and Fisheries (DAF).

The Fisheries Act currently allows the Chief

Executive to make an emergency fisheries declaration in cases where urgent action is needed to meet a “significant” threat to fisheries resources or fish habitat or to deal with another emergency.

There is no compensation payable for an emergency declaration or an urgent declaration because the restrictions imposed will only apply for a limited time being a maximum of three months said the DAF spokesperson.

Mrs Jensen, whose husband is one of the owners of Coral Coast Seafoods, the business that initiated the petition, says that she is not against these emergency or urgent

declarations and believes they are for the good of the fisheries, as they protect conservational species, but she says if her business had to shut down for three months there may not be any recovery from that.

The DAF spokesperson also said that where an area was closed due to a declaration, “There are authorising declarations proposed under the Bill, to provide the option to authorise fishers to temporarily access areas outside a fishery’s normal area of operation.”

Such relaxations are intended to help offset the impacts of a natural disaster, an accident or where an urgent declaration has

been made.

Mrs Jensen says, “We made an application under these authorising declarations after Cyclone Yasi to undertaking crabbing in the yellow zones, but they told us it was too hard to get it through.”

She says that she thinks that the department wants to be more responsive and hopes this is the case, but she still maintains that a lack of compensation will hurt her business and many other Queensland commercial fishers.

A petition has been submitted to State Government sponsored by member for Hinchinbrook Nick Dametto. If you wish to sign the e-petition it can be found at

Locals shine at Innisfail Junior Age Tennis Championships

THE inaugural Barrier Reef Slam was held recently at Innisfail District Tennis Association courts in the categories of Innisfail Age, Cairns Age and Cairns Open.

Despite inclement weather in July forcing the postponement of the Innisfail Age competition, negotiations with Tennis Australia resulted in the granting of a new tournament date later in the year as this tournament draws Australian Junior Ranking points.

The Innisfail Junior Age Championships was hailed a successful event, with over 80 players contesting 127 matches across 22 events. Despite being reduced to a twoday event, players showed incredible tenacity, talent, sportsmanship and resil-

ience on the tennis court.

In Under 10s Girls’ Green Ball Final, Natalie Wolff from Tully faced an in-form Tora-Lyn Namok from Cairns (who is aptly named the ‘Green Ball Rising Talent’) after winning all her Far North Queensland Junior Development Series (JDS) tournaments. In the final, both players rallied from the baseline but it was Namok who broke serve and took the match 9-7.

The Under 12s Girls singles once again ignited fierce rivalry between two Baseline champions, Logan Lizzio and Juliet Santitto. Lizzio got the jump on Santitto early taking the first set 6-4; however, Santitto bounced back to take the second set 6-2.

It was a nail biting match with a tie-breaker that

went Lizzio’s way 10-7.

Lizzio then teamed up with her squad member Genevieve Lindsay in Under 12s Girls doubles and won the event defeating Santitto and her Cairns buddy, Giselle Kawane in a 7-5, 7-6 final.

Harry Hawkins from Mission Beach once again showed he is a talent to be reckoned with beating his training buddy from Baseline Tennis, Chris Finitsis in the final of the Under 16s Boys Singles event 7-5, 6-2.

Another outstanding result was Billy Haoda of Cairns who beat the No 1 seed Jayden Pham from Brisbane in the semi-finals of Under 12 s Boys Singles 3-6, 7-6, 12-10 (tiebreaker) before succumbing to the eventual champion, Taichi Sato of

Cairns Edge Hill Tennis Club.

Everyone at the club echoed the sentiments of tournament director and club’s head coach Wayne Fielder who said, “It was an awesome weekend of tennis from players and their families who travelled from as far south as Brisbane.”

“The Innisfail District Tennis Club and its fantastic team of volunteers worked tirelessly in the lead-up to the tournament and in the canteen with special mention to Margaret Tinney and Kathy Martin.

“Club chairperson Leon Awee and vicechair Michael Ernst were amazing in ensuring the matches ran smoothly and demonstrated sportsmanship by filling in the roles

Tully Rugby League celebrated in style

SHANE MURIATA

TULLY Rugby League celebrated the 2018 season in style last Friday night, with Northern Pride head coach Ty Williams on hand to help recognise our players and staff. President Anthony Emmi was rapt with the night’s proceedings, so much so that he said the usual MC for the night has been replaced by an electronic voice. With that being said, the turnout was nothing short of unbelievable for our great little club, with over 200 people walking into the multipurpose centre enjoying a night out.

19s coach Aponia Savage spoke highly of the younger players coming through the ranks and assured us that we are in good hands over the next few years. Former Red Wiggles and part time legendary player Steven Barrett was happy with how the season went. His speech delivery proved a hit with many players, so it looks like he will be doing the circuit soon. I have to say Barrett has come a long way from a player to a coach. His voice sounds loyal, he addresses players like a mentor and has the love for the jersey and game to make a good run at being a bonafide coach. It’s probably a man crush thing if anything, but I like the guy and think he has a very good road ahead if he chooses to stay on as a coach.

Well done Steven Barrett, hopefully we have you for a few more years yet.

Then we had the A grade side, who made the GF only a week ago. Tongy spoke of great things to come and promised we will be back to challenge once again for the title that eluded us in 2018. Current Mr Universe and Arnold Swazzeneger’s nephew Shane Cliff was deserving of the prestigious Player of the Year award, as he had an outstanding season.

Well, what a night of footy the old Tully Showground turned on last Saturday night when Nth Qld Samoa took on the mighty Azzuris of the North. Both sides were stacked with local talent that ensured this game wasn’t a friendly, and boy, didn’t they deliver! Tully Tiger president and former WBO heavy weight champion of the world Anthony Emmi was stoked that we put on a spectacle as good as this.

“We weren’t sure if we could pull it off. Then all of a sudden, over 500 people turned up and left satisfied that a great afternoon had just taken place, Anthony Emmi said.

“The masters and the Aron Ketchell-led U15s just added more hype to the main game. We have locked this game in for the next few years, with hopefully next year a few NRL players can participate.”

The Tully Tigers were well represented in the game on both sides, with Simone Boscollo, Colin Wilkie, Jonty Ivey, Matthew Musa and legendary cane farmer Cameron Vecchio all having a great night in the Italian jersey.

On the other side and not to be out done, the Uso’s from the north were as stacked, with skipper Matt Laumea looking more at home on the hallowed turf that is the Tully Showground. Other players to play for Samoa included Fabian Tauli, Marcus Nona, Jordan Ketchell, and Danny Afungia and coached by our very own Aron Tongy. For Fabian Tauli, it was a good game to finish an already big season.

He said, “That was something I tell ya. We had players who represented their grandfathers out there tonight.

To see some of them come in and embrace what we have, and to do the pre-game Haka with such intensity, I am so proud of them.”

The game was close for a very long time, with Samoa skipping away with the game. Them, all of sudden, the Azzuris came back. The final score 28-24 could have been anything, with Italy missing a few conversions.

Thank you to all the officials, both referees, admin and coaching staff that made this possible. Next year will be bigger, can’t wait.
