T

his week I have been the victim of the old saying "be careful of what you wish for". Just a couple of weeks ago I was lamenting how all things must be right in the world as I hadn’t received a single letter before our deadline.

So, not surprisingly, this week we have received an unprecedented numbers of letters – which means that, so as not to upset any of our enthusiastic letter writers, I have had to hold over quite a few until the next edition on April 26.

This conundrum has got me thinking – what else I could make happen with just a few well-chosen words?

Well, most weeks I do actually have the same wish and that is for you, our lovely readers, to consider spending your money in our local businesses before you venture further afield.

When we support local business there is much benefit for our local community and we all win. So, here’s to all of us having a lovely Easter and not just loving where we live, but showing that love through shopping local.

Local News Riding for refugees

Hinterland Accounting Services Phone 5439 0188

By Lea Parkes

Recently GC&M News have shared stories of some enthusiastic locals who are participating in some important fundraising initiatives that definitely involve an element of physical challenge.

Firstly there's Neil Collie running 250km in the Simpson Desert (raising money for Diabetes), and then there’s Margot Menkens and three friends completing the Kokoda Challenge (raising funds for the Kokoda Youth Foundation).

Well, this week’s story is about Beerwah local Lynda Utting who next month will be heading off to Lebanon where she will ride 120km in one day through the Lebanese desert to raise awareness and funds for the Syrian refugees.

While Lynda was researching about the event she was amazed to learn just how many Syrian refugees have been taken in by Lebanon and that there were Refugee Camps located within 20km of the borders between the two countries.

Lynda is participating in The Muskathlon, an endurance event where participants choose between running a marathon, walking 63km or cycling 120km.

As Lynda was already a bike rider she has chosen the cycle option, and had planned to hire a mountain bike when she arrived in Lebanon. She said she was stoked that when she contacted the company and explained what she was doing, they offered the use of the bike for three days free of charge.

Lynda is really looking forward to being able to assist with the monthly distribution of essential needs to one of the camps when she is there and, through the assistance of an interpreter, she will have the opportunity to talk to refugees.

Lynda has already raised nearly $6,500 of her total fundraising target and, on Tuesday April 18, she will be hosting a fundraising morning tea from 10.00am at the Felton's Hideway, 125 Storrs Road, Peachester, where she will be doing a presentation about her journey.

If you would like to attend please RSVP to Heather on 0411 218 321. There is also a free bus that will be leaving from Beerwah Baptist Church that will be able to transport you to the event.

Witta local celebrates his 100th birthday By Sonia Clark There must be something to be said for a life on the land as Witta local Edward (Eddie) Heinrich Oehmichen gets set to mark his 100th birthday on April 26.

Born in Brisbane in 1917 to Willy Oehmichen and Bertha (nee Bertha Katrina Finger), Eddie grew up to spend his entire life around the Witta area.

Eddie’s father moved to Australia in the late 1800s and settled in Witta in what was then known as Teutoburgh.

Eddie was the third child of Willy and Bertha and had four siblings; Ella, Freda, Minnie and Bernie.

The family grew up on Witta Road and the children attended the local school – though due to injuries sustained in a boiling water accident as a young child, Eddie only attended school for a couple of years.

At the time of the accident, doctors feared that Eddie would not survive the night and yet happily now he is about to celebrate his 100th birthday!

Growing up into a dairy farming family, as a child Eddie would help hand-milk the cows and walk them to their day paddock on the way to school.

In the afternoons he would leave school early to bring them home to be milked.

From a young age, Eddie had plans to buy his own piece of land and from the age of 11, when he was paid two shillings, sixpence by his father for a week’s work, he saved his money and picked up other local jobs in the area. By the age of 21 he had saved 300 pounds for a deposit on his first block of land.

Eddie Oehmichen on his farm at Witta Eddie would occasionally attend local dances borrowing his family’s Ford A Model car. A strict condition was that if he wasn’t back home in time for the morning milking he wouldn’t be allowed to use it ever again!

At 21, Eddie started up his own dairy farm on Tesch Road and a house (which he still lives in today) was moved by bullock teams onto the property.

Over the years the dairy business expanded and Eddie and his brother Bernie (the Oehmichen brothers) purchased over 660 acres and held around 12 land titles between them.

Eddie continued to milk cows himself until his early 90s. He never married and jokes that that has been his secret to a long life! People wanting to wish Eddie a happy birthday are invited to drop in to his home at 87 Tesch Road on Wednesday April 26.

Time to show your support for chaplaincy By Lea Parkes School Chaplains play an important role in our school systems and each year there is plenty of fundraising required to pay their wages.

The next big event for Glasshouse Country is the Glasshouse District Chaplaincy Dinner to be held on Friday May 19 at the Beerwah Community Hall. The dinner will contribute to fundraising required to fund the chaplains’ roles at Beerburrum, Glass House Mountains, Beerwah and Landsborough Primary Schools, plus the Beerwah High School.

The evening’s program will include a three course meal, live entertainment and special guest speakers from the local schools who will share some of the students’ stories.

Our local school chaplains are an integral part of the support team for many local kids. I was recently speaking to Beerwah High Chaplain Mike Turner and he explained the range of issues and challenges he supports student through, including bullying, grief and loss, anxiety, family problems, low self-esteem, and anger. Being a teenager can be a difficult time for many young people and knowing that they can chat and share their concerns with someone outside of their family and friends can be a real lifeline.

School chaplains also provide support to staff and student families.

State school chaplains have limited funding from the State Government. The rest of their wages is provided by donations and fundraising events. So let’s support our chaplains so they can be available to support our local kids.

If you are interested in attending the dinner, tickets are $50.00 each and can be booked by contacting Coralie Lillecrapp via email: clill16@eq.edu.au.

Or, if you would be interested in coming on board as a sponsor for the evening or in making a donation, please contact Coralie, or one of the local chaplains who can be contacted through their schools.

Take back the power on energy bills State Member for Caloundra Mark McArdle has encouraged residents to be careful when looking at discount deals on their power bills, saying that we need to be certain that the deal that looks good suits us best.

It comes as a number of recently published reports have pointed the finger at retailers as being the main culprit behind electricity bill price shock.

“While the reports look at offers by retailers, it is a very complicated industry and we need to be careful to what we sign up for. In fact, the Federal Government recently announced an investigation into retail electricity prices,” Mr McArdle said.

“It’s no wonder people are throwing up their hands without getting the best deal. There are so many retailers providing plans but not enough transparency about the terms.

“A report by the Grattan Institute of 13 March highlights many of the problems consumers are facing. One is that people are simply not aware that they have the right to choose who they buy their power from.

“But the confusion runs deeper than just selecting a retailer, as electricity prices are often far more complex than the pricing structure in most other industries.

Mr McArdle outlined the following issues as ones people should be considering with regard to discount offers: 1. Retailers may offer a percentage discount, not a dollar amount.

The question is, a discount from what?

2. Retailers who offer big discounts may set high electricity rates from which the discount is taken.

3. The discount may not be off the whole bill, but only off a part of the bill.

4. Discounts may be for a limited time only and tend to be conditional on paying on time with penalties applying for not meeting the deadline.

5. At the end of the discount period you could be put onto a new tariff as selected by the retailer and this could be similar to the highest standing offer.

“Though energy companies are running a business, it is completely within your right to ask them ‘what is the best possible deal you can offer?’” Mr McArdle said.

“It is a case that retailers should be beaten down on deals by threatening that you will walk away from them.

“It is important to remember that as the consumer you hold the ‘power’ here but it is vital that we better arm ourselves with the knowledge of the fine print and limitation of discounts.”

Mr McArdle said there are a number of useful articles available online to help assist in understanding the options, and he provided the following examples: https://grattan.edu. au/wp-content/uploads/2017/03/Price-shockis-the-retail-market-failing-consumers.pdf and www.seniorsnews.com.au/news/howto-cut-your-power-bill-right-now-by-at-least2/3154794/#more-replies.

Business Local News News

Locals raise over $1,200 in two hours!

By Sonia Clark In a fantastic show of community spirit, local businesses and the Hinterland community threw their support behind a local ‘World’s Greatest Shave’ event at All in One Fitness at Beerwah, raising an incredible $1,200 in two hours.

On Saturday April 1, three local mums (our cover stars from GC&M March 22 edition) were joined by another school mum friend and a passerby who jumped on board on the day to “brave the shave” at the fundraiser, held in the fitness centre’s car park.

Over 100 people turned up to show their support and the morning raised funds through raffles, spin classes in the car park, a sausage sizzle and activities such as a jumping castle, hair colouring and face painting which proved especially popular with the kids.

Over 20 local businesses generously contributed to the raffle and the crowds swelled in the build-up to the main event – the head shaving of the five participating ladies. With lots of cheering from the crowd, the ladies opted for different “buzz cuts numbers”, with main organiser Kat Thompson braving a “number 2” cut, while one of the other mums went practically bald with a ‘number 0’.

“It was actually very liberating!” said Kat. “I’d been growing my hair for nearly eight years so it was a bit emotional, but it was at n sig De ist Hair Reece from Reece's Art so much easier having te Siegle-Glover, Kat Landsborough with Ka it done together.” an on and Cat Ry Thompson, Sarah Johnst

Uptown vibe alive in Beerwah

Business owners at the ‘uptown’ end of Beerwah are energised about the revitalisation around the Tower Green business hub.

The considerable Sunshine Coast Council investment into the precinct, and the diverse businesses that are now located in the area, mark an exciting new direction and appeal for locals and visiting customers.

Edge Salon Beerwah owners Jenna and Alan said that Uptown business owners, Steve Moo n, Taz having recently joined the Calandruccio, Gary Gray, Alan Ven n and beautiful uptown Beerwah Jenna Crane businesses on Simpson Street, they are really excited to be moving forward together.

“It’s so important to support each other in business, so please, take the time, make the change and explore what we have on offer,” Alan said.

Local coffee merchant Steve Moon from Vianta said the diversity of businesses, especially in this area of Simpson Street, lends itself to a very appealing uptown vibe.

“Along with the popular Tower Green area, this part of town is evolving into a welcome oasis for all,” Steve said.

Owner of All in One Fitness, Taz Calandruccio, agreed that the new businesses and the renovation of Aldi, along with the calibre of the existing establishments, is drawing more foot traffic to the area. He said that the fine base of services offered are working well together, complemented by the strong working relationship of the local businesses.

Gary Gray, owner of Studio Ink, said, “Over the last few years we’ve seen incredible growth in Beerwah, from the recent artwork to the overall streetscape appeal. Come and visit this end of town – it’s become alive again!”

Celebrating a milestone

Small Business Awards launched

Ashley and Casandra are really proud of their family owned and operated local business in Landsborough

Tight knit communities, like those in the Glass House electorate, survive on the back of small business, which is why local Member of Parliament Andrew Powell has launched his second annual Glass House Small Business Awards – aka the "Glassys".

These awards, to be held during Queensland Small Business Week in May, will have a strong focus on boosting the profile of the many small businesses that operate within the Glass House electorate.

“In Glass House we are fortunate to have over 20 unique townships and each one of these has a varying amount of small family-owned businesses that survive solely on the support of their local community," Andrew said.

“Because I understand how tough they do it, I initially created these awards as a way to publicly recognise their service and give them some much-needed promotion.

"These awards will highlight what they are doing best and will remind our larger community that shopping local will stimulate economic growth and local employment opportunities. The awards also acknowledge employees who offer exceptional service.

“The 2017 Glass House Small Business Awards will be slightly different this year in that there will not be a separate nomination and voting period.

Last year there was an overwhelming number of nominations for many businesses, which therefore were transferred to votes, so this year we are going straight to the voting.

The Grigor family, who own and operate the Landsborough IGA, will this year celebrate 10 years as part of the IGA retail group.

Ashley and Casandra Grigor first began their journey as IGA Retailers in 2007 when they purchased Wondai IGA, three hours north-west of Brisbane.

As first time retailers they had a lot to learn about the industry and, after three years where they gained plenty of industry experience and training, they sold the business and relocated back to the Hinterland.

Since purchasing the IGA store at Landsborough in 2010 they have worked hard to get to know the locals and create a store that has a friendly, warm and inviting atmosphere that people enjoy shopping in.

Regular customers will be aware of the continual transformations that have occurred at the Landsborough IGA store in the past five years; however an even bigger and better one will occur once the Deli expansion is finished in the middle of this year.

Shiralee Cooper (Montville), Karen Shaw (Maleny), Jenny McCafferty (Palmwoods Community and Business Association) and Vicki Wood (Caboolture) with Andrew Powell "Up until May 5, you can go to my website www.andrewpowell.com.au and cast your vote."

Andrew will again have the assistance of a panel of Chamber of Commerce and Business Association representatives within the electorate to determine the award winners.

Awards will be the same as last year for businesses and employees – the Bronze Glassy will be chosen by Andrew and the panel as a peer recognition award, the Silver Glassy for the most votes received, and the coveted Gold Glassy selected from the nominated Bronze and Silver category winners.

Winners will be chosen from the six main business districts which include Caboolture, the D’Aguilar (Woodford and Wamuran) region, Glass House, Maleny, Montville and Palmwoods.

Australia Zoo is currently playing host to eight beautiful koalas and two cheeky dingoes, helping out their friends at ‘Wild Life’ on Hamilton Island.

The koalas and a pair of dingoes – siblings Dekota and Doza – are taking a short vacation south while their home is rebuilt on the island, following the extensive damage to the wildlife park caused by tropical cyclone Debbie.

Just like Australia Zoo, Wild Life’s top priority is the safety and happiness of their animals and therefore they were well-prepared before cyclone Debbie.

However the bad weather has caused damage to infrastructure that will take significant time to repair, meaning the fluffy visitors will be taking some time to relax further south while Queenslanders up north work to get back on their feet.

Rob Hall, General Manager of Wild Life Hamilton Island, said, “The Regional Zoo community

Photography by Ben Beaden, Australia Zoo support has been fabulous and we are extremely grateful to Australia Zoo in particular for reaching out the way they have to take care of some of our animals while we rebuild exhibits and stabilise essential life support elements. Our sincere thanks also go to Hamilton Island Enterprises for their outstanding support and care of the island community as a whole during and following Cyclone Debbie.”

Australia Zoo owner Terri Irwin said, “We're so incredibly happy to be able to offer our support to our friends on Hamilton Island. Cyclone Debbie damaged and destroyed eucalyptus trees required to feed their koalas, so we will be hosting eight koalas until they are able to return.”

Cover to be a winner While there is plenty of work currently going into putting this year’s Apex Business Directory together, there is one important element that is yet to be decided.

That is, the image that will appear on the front cover. Well, it isn’t a total mystery as the work will be that of the winner of the Obi Youth Award as part of the inaugural Obi Art Awards. Lynda Simpson,

Arts Director of the Obi Art Project, said this represented an amazing opportunity for children aged from 11 to 19 years of age.

“Previously the Apex Directory featured the winners of the St George Art Prize, so it's a great honour for Apex to have chosen to sponsor the $1,500 Obi Youth Award,” she said.

Entries close on April 30.

To find out more about the awards, head along to their website www.obiartprize.com.

Dons their bonnets PUBLIC NOTICE

Community Wild Dog Baiting Program April-May 2017

Sunshine Coast Council in partnership with Biosecurity Queensland is supporting a community based coordinated Wild Dog Baiting Program. Failure to control wild dogs can result in livestock losses, attacks on domestic pets and the loss of native fauna.

Landholders have a legislative responsibility to control declared pests on their land and participation in this program is an effective way to help meet this responsibility.

Contributed by Janet Kitchin Our outing this month was an Easter Bonnet fun morning at Trish Watts' home. We all made an Easter bonnet to take along and there was a competition for best hat, along with trivia and memory games. Trish put on a lovely morning tea and we all had a good time. Our next lunch meeting will incorporate our zone conference and will take place at Glass House Sports Club on April 19. Our club raises money for the Smith Family and the Learning for Life program in all their activities. Any ladies who are interested in coming along to one of our functions or who would like to join our club are most welcome.

For further information please contact either Lynda on 5494 7875 or Maree on 5494 6956.

Coochin Creek Bushland

Contributed by Gordon Reddeck Our group will be having their next working bee on Tuesday April 18 starting at 7.00am and ending around 10.30am.

During the last working bee we targeted a patch of weed called Glycine which is highly invasive and capable of smothering ground vegetation and bushland trees. We plan to continue that task and hopefully fully clear that patch during this session.

If there is time to spare there are lots of other tasks that can be done, like lifting small trees that have been pushed over by the wind after Cyclone Debbie, clearing rubbish in the reserve, etc.

Anybody wishing to learn more about weed identification and removal, and bushland preservation is welcome to join us. This work is done in collaboration with the Sunshine Coast Council as part of their Community Nature Conservation Program.

All equipment required is supplied and tea is also provided. Wear good sun protective clothing and footwear suitable for hiking in the bush.

We meet at the Caralan Park Gate. Take Roberts Road and about 300m from the Resource and Recovery Centre turn into Caralan Way. Thirty metres further, turn right into Emma Place.

Leanda Talks - Kids, Nutrition & Sugar What we need to consider?

Nearly every day children have slightly different nutritional needs. Once a child has experienced a variety of foods, their bodies and taste buds will go to the foods that may provide the specific nutrients that are on ynt We Leanda required for their current Naturopath ND and development.

Yoga Teacher Children can go days eating the same food. Remembering up to the age of seven a child's taste buds are discovering and becoming familiar with food, so it is important to stay consistent and determined with any fussy eaters in this time as they can and will become familiar with eating more good nutritious food over the time of their development.

If your children are having good nutrition, no need to worry about them eating the same thing every day in their lunchbox. The fact that the lunchbox is empty at the end of the day is a winner.

I’m yet to meet a child without a sweet tooth, but are your kids consuming an unhealthy amount of sugar?

There are two main types of sugar, “Free Sugars” and “Natural Sugars”.

Free sugars include sugars found in biscuits, some breakfast cereals, pasta sauces, cakes, chocolates, sweets, fizzy drinks and commercial fruit juice. These foods are all considered high

RRP $31.45

Special

in sugar and we need to be very mindful of how much we are consuming. This type of sugar can be addictive as the ‘enough’ off button in the brain is not able to switch off.

One single can of fizzy drink contains approximately nine teaspoons of free sugar. This is over a child's whole recommended daily intake of sugar. This amount of sugar can lead to major health concerns including weight and behavioural issues when not addressed.

Natural sugars are found in fruits, whole grains and dairy.

These sugars are the ones that we can safely consume for general nutrient intake.

Freshly made fruit juices provide the natural sweetness that children love, as fructose (fruit sugar) is converted into glucose. Over 90% of all glucose is used by the nervous system and for brain activity.

So how much sugar is appropriate for our children per day?

• 4 - 6 years 19 g = 5 teaspoons • 7-10 years 24g = 6 teaspoons • 11 years + 30g = 7 teaspoons Start to look at your food labels.

4g of sugar = 1 teaspoon Tips: • Use a blackboard or whiteboard in the kitchen to show different meal ideas and get the children in the kitchen helping with cooking.

• Always keep a fruit bowl filled with seasonal fruit in eyes view.

• For the fussy eater - be consistent with introducing vegetables. Keep only up to 3 varieties on the plate and have them separate.

FREE FROM, gluten, dairy, nuts, sugar Ingredients • 8 medjool dates - deseeded • 1 cup of mixed sunflower and pumpkin seeds • ½ cup cocoa powder • ½ cup coconut • 2 tbs coconut oil Method • Blend all ingredients in food processor until well combined.

• Refrigerate for 1 hour.

• Use clean wet hands to roll into balls.

• Coat in coconut.

• Keep in fridge. Can store in freezer for up to 3mths.

Repeat every night.

• Give your children a head start every day with a fresh juice made from seasonal fruits.

• Use natural sweeteners like: fresh fruit, maple syrup, coconut sugar, stevia, fresh dates, raw honey and rice malt syrup.

Groundbreaking domestic violence law reforms

Maleny Halfpipe renewal

At the Listening Posts that I held in January in Maleny and Glass House, local people told me loud and clear that they were unhappy with the internet access available to us. Good internet access is essential for people who want to study, work from home, or run a small business. For all of us, it is an important source of information and entertainment as well as a communications lifeline. Local people here deserve good internet access, so we need to get the National Broadband Network delivered as soon as we can. You may know that the Glasshouse Country Chamber are asking for feedback on your internet access so that they can pass it on to me.

I’d also love to hear from you directly about your experiences. The more local stories I have, the better I can fight for our area. Please contact me on andrew.wallace.mp@aph.gov.au or phone my office.

I am working hard on this with the Federal Minister for Communications, Senator Fifield, and the Minister for Regional Development, Fiona Nash.

I have had meetings with all the people who make decisions about NBN locally, and I have pushed hard to get what we need. I am cautiously optimistic that we will get a good result for local people soon, so watch this space!

During the last sitting week of Parliament groundbreaking Domestic Violence reforms were passed due to the LNP’s Private Member’s Bill.

Key reforms which were passed in the Bail (Domestic Violence) and Another Act Amendment Bill 2017 included: • Reversing the presumption for bail in domestic violence-related crimes such as assault, grievous bodily harm, deprivation of liberty, strangulation and kidnapping.

• DV Alert system to notify victims and families when someone with a DVO is being considered for parole, even if the reason they are in prison is not related to domestic violence.

• Introducing urgent appeal rights to the bail application process, meaning bail decisions will be stayed for up to three business days and referred to a higher court for urgent review.

• Allowing GPS trackers to be fitted to an alleged offender as a bail condition by the court to ensure that victims of crime are better protected throughout the trial process, which can be lengthy.

The Bill also sought to introduce a DV Alert system to ensure victims and families are notified when someone charged with domestic violence crimes is being considered for or has been granted bail.

Unfortunately, Labor Members voted against this provision so it did not pass.

I am pleased to advise the renewal project for the Maleny Halfpipe is now complete. The fence was due to be removed last week, ensuring the paint had fully hardened following the recent wet weather.

Queenslanders are a resilient lot and we are used to experiencing more than our fair share of natural disasters each and every year and Cyclone Debbie was no exception. Not only did she cause considerable damage in the north crossing the coast, she then continued to track south leaving further destruction and flooding in her wake. In my capacity as Shadow Minister for Local Government, Transport and Main Roads, I recently travelled to many regions that were affected, including Airlie Beach and Mackay and then south to Logan, Beaudesert and the Gold Coast. Restoring essential services, clearing debris and reopening roads are critical to communities getting back on their feet and I applaud the coordinated work of the councils and other support services to provide such swift responses. The Australian Government has activated the Natural Disaster Relief and Recovery Arrangements (NDRRA) which will help individuals with emergency needs as well as assisting local and state government in restoring damaged public infrastructure.

I encourage you to take a look at the draft Parking Management Plan and draft Local Area Parking Plans and provide feedback by May 5. Council is actively listening to community concerns about current parking management issues, which has led to the development of these draft plans. You can view the drafts on council’s website or at various locations including the Maleny library.

Help for small businesses

We have 40,000 great small businesses on the Coast. I have visited many of them locally, like Glasshouse Country Auto Body Repairs and Glasshouse Country Meats. Many are run by local families who are doing it tough, and many are important community facilities. Where would we be without them? Last week the Federal Parliament passed the Government’s Enterprise Tax Plan, which gives small and medium size businesses a tax cut from July. The local owners I have spoken to plan to use the extra money to give their staff more hours or hire a new person, or to buy new equipment so they can offer new or better services.

Some are going to get solar panels to reduce their environmental impact. I’m proud to have been part of delivering that, because it will make a big difference to keeping our small businesses open, and making sure there are jobs for people in Glass House, Beerwah and Maleny.

Help with childcare

I have four daughters, so I know how much work kids can be and how hard it is to get access to good childcare. We have some great value providers here but the costs can still mount up. The Government made big changes to childcare this month.

The $7,500 cap on government subsidies has been scrapped for all families earning less than $185,000, so that you don’t run out of money midyear. This is great news for families in our region who want to get back to work or studying. Contact my office to find out more.

Feeding the hungry masses With Spencer and Karen Shaw It’s that time of year when the temperatures start to drop and our native wildlife need to start eating their fill to keep warm and hopefully put on a bit of fat to keep them going through the cooler months.

In our last chat, we discussed the beautiful Banksias, Grevilleas and other native Proteaceae which provide great nectar sources for all Rainbow Lorikeets, Honey Eaters (and Noisy Mynahs!). But many of the native birds of the hinterland and coast are fruit eaters and it’s great to plant food supplies for them too.

The Mutton Wood – Myrsine variabilis – has an unflattering name, but is a beautiful glossy foliaged large shrub that produces masses of purple fruit in spring. Native Elderberry – Sambucus australasica – is a fast growing shrub that produces masses of small yellow fruit in autumn.

Velvet Leaf – Callicarpa pedunculata – is an outstanding shrub that is also fruiting at the moment with masses of purple fruit good for all the small birds too. If you’d like Brown Cuckoo Doves then plant Bleeding Heart – Homalanthus populifolius. The small Psychotria shrubs – Psychotria loniceroides and Psychotria daphnoides – are also great fruiters at this time of year and small shrubs.

As always in South East Queensland with our amazing biodiversity, this is only the tip of the iceberg. Plant fruiting shrubs, trees and vines and keep the birds and other wildlife fed and warm.

Environment Australasian Bat Night As the old theme for Batman used to say – same bat time, same bat station. Well, that is if Mary Cairncross Scenic Reserve could be called a ‘bat station’, as once again there will be a full night of ‘batty’ fun for the family on Saturday April 22 from 4.00pm-8.00pm.

The evening is a great opportunity to learn about our ecosystem superheroes – flying foxes and microbats.

At this family-friendly event there will be a presentation by local bat ecologist and author Les Hall, as well as a talk by Lyndon Davies (Gubbi Gubbi) on the importance of bats to local indigenous culture.

Bring a blanket, torch, and a picnic dinner and relax under the stars while watching the local flying fox colony fly out of the reserve.

For the kids there will be a story reading by Warambi author and Sunshine Coast local Aleesha Darlison, along with a Wildcall native wildlife display, a ‘Bat Cave’ for kids’ activities and an Outdoor Cinema will feature Stellaluna, a film about a baby fruit bat struggling to find her true family.

Make sure the kids come dressed up in their favourite batty costume, and there will be prizes for best dressed.

There will be a coffee van and barbeque food to purchase on the night. The event is free to attend, however you need to register your attendance on Sunshine Coast Council’s website. if you need assistance or additional information please contact council on 5475 7272.

Environmental Education Expo As part of this year’s Earth Week celebration the Sunshine Coast Environmental Education Expo will be held at the Rainforest Discovery Centre, at Mary Cairncross Scenic Reserve, on Friday April 21 from 8.30am to 4.00pm.

The program highlights will be a presentation and half day workshop with Pat Armstrong with a focus on developing young environmental leaders.

There will also be a program presentation on the Sunshine Coast Council Kids in Action Program, along with a tour of the new Rainforest Discovery Centre, plus local environment education exhibitors.

For members of the Australian Association for Environmental Education attendance is free, and for non-members it is $25.00. For registration, sponsorship or exhibitor enquiries please contact Mandy Botterell on 0416 294 357 or email mandy.botterell@envirocom.com.au.

Friends of Mary Cairncross Association Easter

with Sue Tanner Easter is always a busy time at the reserve. The school holidays see a big increase in visitor numbers, so the new facilities will certainly be getting a work out and the volunteers will be very busy.

There are so many interesting things to do and see in the Discovery Centre before or after your forest walk. Unfortunately the café is not yet open but the picnic/barbeque areas are looking lush and green.

The Friends are looking forward to the fitting out of the retail section of the new centre. We are planning some interesting new stock so that visitors can buy a souvenir of their trip. A wonderful new edition to our products will be another book of beautiful art works and information about the rainforest being put together by Dr Les Hall. All the stunning art work has been done by local artists, and the book features birds, animals, trees, fungi and so much more, including detailed information about them all, some of which are very rare and surprising. We are very excited about this book and hope to launch it before Christmas – watch this space.

The Friends next meeting will be on Saturday April 22 upstairs in the meeting room.

A safe and happy Easter break to everyone.

The Friends of Mary Cairncross Association aims to protect and enhance the natural environment of the Mary Cairncross Scenic Reserve.

Adani Mine makes no sense

Greg Newton (GC&M News April 5) calls for us to support the Adani Mine. But the Adani Coal Mine makes zero economic sense.

The project is known to have break even costs around $100.00 per tonne. Yet thermal coal is currently averaging $40.00 on its way to the $30s as global oversupply refuses to rationalise quickly.

Moreover, there are numerous Australian projects that operate far more cheaply than Adani so they will have to shut to accommodate it, delivering a truly backwards blow to thermal coal revenues and productivity.

Thermal coal is in massive global oversupply. The Adani mine will only collapse its price all the faster, closing more efficient mines in NSW. It will never be built without corporate welfare to support it, and it will trigger just as many job losses from more efficient mines in NSW. To say nothing of the dying Great Barrier Reef, bleached two years in a row now for the first time ever, due to global warming caused by coal-sourced emissions. The Adani mine will only make the reef's death more certain and rapid.

Gerry Muller Maleny

Re: Adani Mine

There was so much misinformation in Mr Newton’s brief letter about Adani last week that it would take more than my allotted 300 words to correct it all.

Suffice to say, however, that the number of jobs associated with Adani’s Carmichael mine is only 1400, not the oft-quoted figure of many times that.

This pathetic number (1400) needs to be compared with the 67,000 tourism jobs associated with the Great Barrier Reef that will be lost should the mine go ahead and the carbon trapped in the coal be released into our atmosphere.

If the argument was just about economics this fact alone would be enough to put an immediate stop to the proposal. But it’s not the economic good of Australia that is under question, it’s the assets of some very big miners and energy suppliers. These assets are threatened by the changes we will have to make over the next couple of decades as we move to a more locally distributed energy supply. Never mind that we simply must make these changes if we’re going to survive, these exceedingly wealthy individuals, who have far too much influence over Australian politics, stand to lose and are prepared to do anything to hold onto their power.

With Central Queensland farmers more than outraged that Adani has been given carte blanche for artesian water (355 billion litres over the life of the mine) it’s also deeply surprising that a National Party stalwart like Mr Newton isn’t getting behind the farmers and condemning the whole thing.

Perhaps he, like many others, doesn’t realise that this whole business with Adani is a vast bait and switch tactic of the most cynical kind: Labor doesn’t want to give Adani one billion to help build their railway line to transport the coal. The money isn’t for Adani at all, it’s so that once Adani has copped all the flak and is up and running, Rinehart, Palmer et al, can get their coal out without having to build any infrastructure.

The old rule still holds true: follow the money.

Steven Lang Maleny

Re: Adani Mine

The Queensland Government estimated the life span of the mine to be between 25 and 60 years.

Adani predicts the first stage of construction will provide around 500 positions, mainly for planners and engineers. Once operational, it is estimated the mine will provide 2,500 to 3,000 full-time jobs.

In 2015, Adani Consultant Dr Jerome Fahrer told www.gcnews.com.au

the Land Court in Brisbane the mine would actually create fewer jobs, a net figure of 1,464. Are there any guarantees these jobs will not go to 457 visa holders?

Adani Mining chief executive Jeyakumar Janakaraj has faced scrutiny for failing to disclose that a company he ran in Africa was guilty of serious environmental breaches, despite being asked to do so in a letter from the Federal Environment Department.

Environmental opposition to the project is primarily on the ground emissions from coal fuels climate change, which threatens the Great Barrier Reef and the tourism industry and land and water surrounding the area.

Fishermen from India say Adani destroyed tidal mangroves.

"The Adani project is harming us. Their coal dust and stream discharge are harming us," Mr Mohammad said, "There are no fish in the sea. All living creatures are dead."

The Australian Government will contribute over one billion dollars to the project.

The taxpayer dollars could be better spent helping the community, in particular our senior citizens, our homeless and our needy.

50,000 tiny homes could be built for our homeless at a cost of $20,000 each. Money could be given to our community legal centres. Money could be spent on creating jobs in renewable energy. Infrastructure in Queensland is sadly lacking. There are any number of areas where this $1.1 billion could be sensibility used.

Adani is a disaster for the Reef and tourist industry, our water and our land and future generations. We must get ethics and integrity back into the political arena.

Sue Weber Greens candidate for Tibrogargan

Re: Adani Mine

Greg Newton (GC&M News April 5) claims that the Adani will spend $21 billion and create 10,000 jobs at its proposed mine.

Firstly, at a Queensland Land Court hearing last year, Adani’s lawyers admitted that the number of jobs created would be about 1400. Re finance, Indian and Australian media have been reporting for some time that Adani has money problems.

Most banks have walked away from the Queensland project and Adani are seeking $1 billion of our taxpayer funds before they commit to the project.

All mining activities in Australia represent only 8% of the national workforce so it doesn’t create many jobs in our economy. Open cut mining is highly automated now with driverless trucks and other machinery being remotely controlled from an office in a city far from the mine.

Most importantly, coal mines are now regarded by banks and other investors as ‘stranded assets’ which

You Said It will have little future value due to technological developments such as renewable energy. Some local businesses in the region of the proposed mine may receive some financial benefit but large numbers of people are unlikely to gain ongoing employment.

Ratings stupidity

It never ceases to amuse me when disaster strikes in Queensland, such as Tropical Cyclone Debbie, that we have the Premier, The Commissioner of Police, relative mayors and heads of the various services who attend along with their staff and volunteers.

They broadcast to everyone to stay indoors after making their properties safe or evacuate and then we get the idiots from our morning television shows who cannot get to the affected area quickly enough.

Ratings is apparently what it is all about. Not only do we see the so called heads, we also see their staff out in the 200-plus kilometre an hour winds hanging onto posts, etc, and placing their lives in actual danger.

Not only do they appear to be able to do this without one police officer stepping in and arresting same, where the bloody hell is their ‘occupational health and safety mob’ – don’t they have a duty of care?

Trees, power lines, corrugated iron roofs don't give warning, they are airborne and the rate of travel does not allow one time to escape or get out of the way. I could be wrong, but I have never seen a runner yet who can travel that fast on his or her feet.

What these idiots do is place the Emergency Services Volunteers lives in danger. Why? Because they are the ones who have to go and save them.

Surely Queensland has laws in place whereby these people can be managed, controlled or arrested if everything else fails. If not, then it is about time there were laws or constraints issued.

Maybe our local member can start, by standing up and being heard on the issue.

News Newsininbrief brief Burning program begins HQPlantations have commenced prescribed burning of pine plantations in the general areas of Beerburrum, Elimbah, Beerwah, Glass House, Landsborough, Toorbul, Woodford and Bribie Island. The burns are part of an ongoing campaign to protect adjacent communities and the plantation assets from potential wildfires and arson activity.

HQPlantations Beerburrum Operations Manager, Barry Darko, said recent rain and the beginning of cooler temperatures and lighter winds have allowed HQPlantations to commence the prescribed burning program.

“Annual summer growth of underbrush requires that we undertake prescribed burning to reduce the risk of wildfires in the hotter months when fires would burn more intensely,” Mr Darko said.

HQPlantations burning program will continue through to the end of July, with April and May being the peak of the burn period. The timing and frequency of prescribed burns is dependent on weather conditions, and whilst every attempt is made to minimise smoke inconvenience to residents and motorists, it is dependent on these favourable weather conditions.

A copy of the areas planned for burning can be viewed at HQPlantations website: www.hqplantations.com.au.

All prescribed burns are posted to the QFES Facebook page on the day of the burn.

Barking dog seminar back by popular demand The recent Park the Bark barking dog seminar run by Sunshine Coast Council was so successful, another one is being planned for June.

Attended by more than 50 local dog owners, they (and their neighbours) will soon be enjoying more peace and quiet thanks to the seminar hosted by renowned animal behaviourist Dr Cam Day. The free educational seminar, held on March 2, covered real examples of barking dog cases, a look at which dogs bark the most, a key to solve barking behaviour, solutions for “when I am home” barking, and solutions for “when I am away” barking.

Community Programs Portfolio Councillor Jenny McKay said, “If you missed out the first time, don’t worry, council will be hosting another Park the Bark seminar in June.

“Thanks to the wonderful feedback we received and requests from residents who were unable to make it to the first seminar, we are organising another one,” Cr McKay said.

Register your interest for the next seminar by emailing animals@sunshinecoast.qld.gov.au or calling 5475 7272.

Council will be in touch in the near future to confirm the date, time and location for the June seminar.

Easter Sunrise Service

For the first time, the Range Christian Leaders Network have organised a special Ecumenical Easter Sunrise Service to be held in Maleny on Sunday April 16 from 6.00am.

The service will include Scripture readings by Rev Adam Gallagher from the Maleny Baptist Church, with Phill Tucker giving the music for this Holy day.

Pastor of the Maleny Presbyterian Church, Scott Kroeger, said this one hour service is timed to reflect St Mark's scripture regarding the Resurrection: “...very early on the first day of the week, just after sunrise, they were on their way to the tomb…”.

“This is a special community event and everyone is invited to join with each other in commemorating and celebrating this most important day in the Christian Calendar, the rising of Jesus Christ from the dead,” Pastor Scott said.

The service will take place on the vacant land at 40-42 Maple Street, the space between Maleny Realty and the laneway beside Peace of Green, and those attending should bring along chairs and blankets.

If it is raining, plans are in place for indoor shelter.

At the conclusion of the service people are encouraged to get their morning coffee and breakfast from one of Maleny's coffee shops that are open for business.

Crack open the truth about Easter

Easter is a wonderful time of year. We celebrate it in many and varied ways. It has become a time to get away with family for a super long weekend and catch up on other things. But when was the last time you cracked open the truth about Easter?

Easter is a time to reflect, not on our advancement or our busyness, but on what God has done for each of us through Jesus Christ. Easter isn't a long weekend or a holiday, it is reference to a symbolic historical event.

This event isn't just for Christians but for all humanity. Witnesses who saw the crucifixion of Jesus uttered these words: “Surely this is the Son of God.” As Jesus hung upon the cross, He stood in the gap between us and God where our own sin created a great divide. Because of

Christ’s sacrifice we now have forgiveness for our sins and can therefore, once again, be as close to God as we choose.

When we crack open the truth about Easter we begin to realise we are loved by God, forgiven by His grace and that every person can receive His gift of eternal life.

The Bible says if you believe in your heart God raised Christ from the dead and confess with your mouth that Jesus is Lord, then you shall be saved. Easter is a time to reflect on who God is and the incredible plan He has for each of our lives.

As you get about and do what you need to do this Easter, take some time to reflect on this truth.

God bless you!

Kids’ hub at Wood Expo

The Maleny Wood Expo, together with Queensland Water and Land Carers (QWaLC), will this year introduce the Junior Landcare Paddock: a hub for kids’ workshops and activities.

The idea is to offer a hands-on, experiential ‘village’, inspiring young people to work with their hands to enhance their appreciation of the natural world.

The workshops and activities will offer opportunities for participants to develop practical, creative skills and learn about working with natural materials.

Kids of all ages can learn from experienced woodcrafters and use real tools to make a Mother’s Day present, a Funky Gourd Bird, and much more!

They can try their hand at furniture making at the Cool Stool School, make toys, or create bush critters. There’ll be face painting, jewellery making, weed weaving and a lot of hands-on, away-from-screens, creative fun.

The Blackall Range Woodcrafters Guild and Maleny Men’s Shed will help junior Wood Expo attendees to make a Mother’s Day gift. Members of both organisations have been working hard to come up with ideas that are easy and relatively quick.

There will be templates of numerous items ready for all the finishing touches – gluing, clamping, knocking in dowel, sanding and varnishing.

Funky Gourd Birds There will even be some simple projects for the very little people under the age of five.

The young woodworkers can choose to make a little boat (for those under 5), a cheese or cutting board, a key holder in the shape of an animal, toast tongs or a plant holder.

There’ll also be a small workshop station, looked after by Gregory’s Machinery, that will offer young people the chance to make jigsaws and a selection of little native animals.

The Mother’s Day workshop tent will be available to children from 10.00am to 2.00pm (no bookings required) and it is completely free for all participants, no matter which activity they choose to engage in.

The Witches

Learn, play, discover & enjoy!

The next feature will appear in the May 10 edition.

Call 5438 7445 to book your space.

Brave boys and girls are in for a wicked and wonderful time with the bubbling concoction, 'The Witches', based on David Wood’s adaptation of the Roald Dahl classic, performing at The Events Centre, Caloundra on Thursday May 25 at 10.00am.

When one little boy unwittingly stumbles into the annual meeting of witches, he hears their nasty plan to get rid of all the children in the world – by turning them into mice!

It’s going to take smarts and sneakiness to stop them and not get squished in the process.

Think you can outwit a witch and outrun a mouse? Then grab a seat in the front row for 'The Witches', bursting onto the stage as a mindboggling and madcap one-man show.

Brave boys and girls, rat-racers and retirees are in for a wicked and wonderful time. Lucas Jervies directs this bubbling concoction, with one actor running amok in a virtuosic physical performance.

Recommended for ages six and over, tickets are $20.00 or for groups of 10+ $17.00. For bookings call 5491 4240 or visit www.theeventscentre.com.au.

Good Health Living with the seasons Contributed by Kaz from Soulqi Hi, it’s autumn and here at SoulQi Acupuncture & Massage we regularly encounter dry coughs, dry skin and constipation. It’s also a time of year when asthma, hot flushes and insomnia gets worse. But there’s good news! We can help guide you through this change of season with acupuncture, dietetics and supplements.

Autumn is the season of reflection and time to organise for winter, which means preventive medicine for our immune system. This time of year reflects the metal element in TCM and the lung and large intestines can, as we all know, come under attack with the change of weather. It’s also a time to let go emotionally, which can have a huge impact on our health.

So, instead of dealing with colds, flus and viral infections including sinus, let us help you with a plan of increased immunity with this change of season.

Call us today to find out more, or read our blog on our website to find out more.

Foot pain - let’s get to the bottom of it

With Dr Braxton Turnage, DC At Adjust to Life Chiropractic, our mission is simple.

We aim to help you and your family feel great again and enjoy a better quality of life!

Today’s lifestyle puts a tremendous amount of strain on our spines. Poor posture from computers and mobile phones, repetitive stress from working, and excessive sitting all are part of daily life. It’s no wonder why so many people regularly visit a chiropractor to regain and maintain their spinal health!

For people who don’t see a chiropractor, many are unaware that chiropractic care not only corrects spinal pain and problems, but it also can have a big impact on other areas of your health - sciatica, headaches, muscle weakness, hip and knee pain, and the list goes on and on.

Your spine is the connection between your brain and the rest of your body, and truly is your lifeline! You only get one spine...let Adjust to Life Chiropractic help you take care of it!

Contributed by Jane Stanley Many people suffer from a range of foot and ankle disorders that can cause pain, reduce mobility, inhibit exercise or sports participation and may predispose you to injury.

Podiatrists are trained to assess biomechanical alignment and foot posture problems that cause pain or disability. Podiatrists assess and treat foot and ankle pain, including pain from arthritis, heel pain and general sore feet. Podiatrists are also great at keeping your feet in general good health by removing painful corns and calluses which stop you moving the way you would like.

There are many options for treating foot pain and the first step is to get a clear diagnosis and work with your podiatrist on a treatment plan to get up and moving again and pain free.

Jane Stanley is an experienced podiatrist and credentialed diabetes educator who can assist you reduce pain and function better. Jane provides services to children and adults and is available each week from her clinic in Maleny.

Julieta is a tough drama Julieta, the 20th film production by celebrated Spanish director Pedro Almodovar, will be screened by the Maleny Film Society on Saturday April 22 in the Maleny Community Centre. It’s 99 minutes long, classified M, and the director describes it as “tough drama with a hint of mystery”.

Based on three stories entitled ‘Runaway’ by Nobel Prize-winning author Alice Munro, the film describes how a middle-aged woman living in Madrid comes to terms with her 12-year estrangement from her daughter who has been sighted by a friend at Lake Como.

Emotional relationships are explored backwards and forwards through time and exotic locations, tracking Julieta’s adventurous youth as a travelling classics teacher, her love for handsome fisherman Xoan, her mourning – then the unfathomable abyss between herself and her daughter, which demands to be bridged.

Almodovar casts Emma Suarez as the middle-aged Emma with her own independent lifestyle and Dario Grandinetti as the man in her life. Adriana Ugarte appears as the young Julieta. The director’s cinematograhic art seamlessly blends the two in a strong drama, accompanied by haunting music from composer Alberto Iglesias.

Doors open at 6.00pm for catered dinner catered by Wild Rocket, with drinks bar. Screening is at 7.15pm. Pre-bookings by members on-line or via the Maleny information Centre. General public tickets will be available at the door. Check the website www.malenyfilmsociety.info.

Don’t forget to feed your plants Well, we sure got some well needed rain. And hasn’t the garden responded well to a good deep watering?

But did you know that the excess rain means that your soil will have lost some of the soluble nutrients which those bursting-with-life plants will now be craving?

Unless you have well cared for soil, containing lots of organic matter, composted organic matter and manures and high natural mineral content, you’ll need to replace some of those washed out nutrients.

The quickest way is to apply a balance complete fertiliser – either as a watered in soluble solution or as slow release pellets or a standard granular fertiliser.

Take care if using a watered in soluble fertiliser as too much could damage the leaves of the plants or cause ‘plasmolysis’ of the roots. This is where water is drawn out of the plant roots because the soil moisture has a higher concentration of salts (from the fertiliser) than the plant has in the sap in the roots.

You will then see your plants wilting like they are thirsty, even though you’ve not long watered them with the liquid fertiliser.

Another way is to top up your mulch with animal manures, lucerne hay, crushed rock minerals and a dusting of dolomite and potash. As this breaks down, it will both feed the soil organisms and provide nutrients to your plants.

Contributed by Patricia Bradford Most of the last meeting was taken up with discussing plans for Friendship Day and our 40th birthday celebrations in July.

Our sympathies go to Nessie Pratten and her family for the sad news of the loss of her grandson Cory Pratten recently.

Results of the competition lunch for February: Triple tie first - Margaret Ferris, Pam Innes and Patricia Bradford 14 points, Second: Margaret Wallace, 8 points.

After lunch some members visited the garden of Margaret Ferris. Margaret couldn’t tell us how many potted plants she has in the shade houses and scattered around under the trees in the garden. There were a lot of other interesting plants throughout the garden grown mainly for flowers and foliage that Margaret uses for her floral art.

Thank you, Margaret, for showing us your garden.

Next meeting is at the Peachester Hall on Thursday April 20, 9.30am.

Visitors and new members always welcome. For more information phone 5496 9169.

W Water Proofing

The Australia National Wake Board Competition was held last weekend at Bayside Wake Park at Logan.

Many entrants came from across the country, including Landsborough local Bentley Bland, aged 7, who is in Year 2 at Landsborough State School.

Bentley made the finals of the 11yrs and Under, just missing out on a podium position.

He has only been wakeboarding for 18 months as a member at Bli Bli Wake Park, so no doubt this will be only the first of many stories about Bentley to come.

San grading

Contributed by Cameron Taylor San Taekwondo held its Term 1 grading at its full time Beerwah centre last Friday night.

Gradings are held every term and are a chance for students to progress in rank. All students are required to demonstrate basic drills and poomsae (defined patterns of defense-and-attack motions) as well as show good manners and martial arts spirit.

The higher belts are also required to do full contact sparring, break timber and demonstrate skill in defences from different grabs and strikes.

San gradings are conducted with a maximum of three students grading at one time to ensure everyone is assessed individually and accurately, and students all receive a marked criteria sheet and individual feedback. San also recently updated its grading requirements to keep increasing the standard of the club. Testing can be hard and students do occasionally fail, but students get to feel a real sense of achievement when receiving a new belt.

Friday saw 48 students attend grading from the Kenilworth, Beerwah and Maleny clubs.

Notably, Aaron Lerch successfully graded for and achieved his 1st Dan (first degree black belt), which has been the result of 5 years of training. The Best Grading award for the White and Yellow Belt grading was awarded to Myles Owen, and for the Blue, Red and Black Belt grading, it was won by Aaron Lerch.

San Taekwondo has beginner classes starting now in Beerwah, Maleny and Kenilworth. Visit www. santkd.com or call 0437 571 540 to find out more.

Witta Tennis

Contributed by Pauline Fraley A tight but enjoyable match saw Witta Wompoos go down to the Gympie Silver team by 7 sets to 5. We played on the Maleny grass courts as our alternative 'home'. The courts were good and the clubhouse more than adequate. Annette made an impressive return to tennis winning all her sets. Stacey played as our other lady and put in a more than competent performance.

The men on the day were Ernie, Haydyn, Andrew and Denis. A promising performance all round.

From time to time, it’s great to take the time to realise how good things are. Wonderful tennis setting, great friends, sun shining and the Wikings were Wictorious.

Nambour Nigglers travelled to Witta and despite the score line the games were close, thoroughly enjoyable and we are looking forward to our return match.

Wikings up by 12 sets. Thanks to the team, Glenno, No John, Mikey, No knees John, Maree and Paulina.

Social tennis: Monday 8.00am and Saturday 1.00pm, all welcome. Court bookings, 0437 295 501 or www.wittatennis.com.au.

Maleny Bowls Club

Contributed by Ian Hansen The first round of the Singles Championships, both Ladies and Men, were played last Saturday. In the Ladies, Jane Burgess defeated Carol Cook and Kay Gesch accounted for Relma Godfrey. Men: Allan Cook won against Doug McGufficke, but the score, 25 shots to 10, didn’t reflect the closeness of the match. I marked this match and on at least four occasions Allan extricated himself from two or three shots down with his last bowl, otherwise the result would have been much closer. Peter Duffy beat Dave Austin, Graeme Glover defeated Joe Walters and, in the closest result of the round, Brett Gillis beat Jim King 25 shots to 22. Congratulations to the winners, commiserations to the losers and many thanks to the Markers. Tuesday’s winners with two wins +13 were Graeme Glover and Marie Anderson.

The jackpot wasn’t won when negative 12 was drawn from the barrel. Wednesday evening’s first round of the Twilight Challenge resulted in victories for the following teams: Mobile Kingdom, Could Nots, Sunstone, Outlaws, Amigos and Ben Bryce.

The lucky draw winners were: Lead - Ray Pantlin, Second - Dennis Kyling, and Skip - Alan Loynes. The Touchers went to Gary Darcy, Heather Loynes and Toni Walters. Jim Davidson was the lucky Money Board winner. On Friday, four rinks of Scroungers were played and the winners on their respective rinks were: Rob Norris, Scott Alexander, John Long and Allan Cook. None of the Sponsors’ Prize winners were present to claim their prizes and Derek Wilson was the lucky Money Board winner. This week there was Jackpot Pairs/Triples Tuesday, the Twilight Challenge Wednesday evening and Scroungers Friday. There will also be some Championship Matches played on Saturday or perhaps during the week. www.gcnews.com.au

Submitted by Brenda Briese They say, be careful what you wish for. Well we certainly got more than we bargained for when the rain came. But it was wonderful. The course is now looking beautifully green. And the dams are all full.

Our greens staff are very happy. And it's nice to have some cooler weather.

March 29: We had a Stroke competition with a small field of 13 players. Winner was Ruth Machen nett 74, R/up Cathy Stone 76 ocb. NTPs (2) and (18) Sue Woolway, (5) Vanessa Aland, (16) Lesley Eggleston. BRD went to 76.

Thursday, April 6 was a little bit too wet to play!! Since the rain, conditions have been rather challenging which is reflected in the scores.

Saturday April 1 was Monthly Medal with 18 players. Winner was Fay Barry 72 nett, R/up Karen Gannon 74 nett, Gross Winner Tam Reid 80. NTPs (2) Lesley Eggleston, (5) and (16) Tam Reid, (18) Dell Machen. Putting, Fay Barry. BRD went to 80.

Thursday April 6 was Monthly Medal. We had a few heavy showers but had a small field of 33 players.

Division 1: Winner Andrea Campbell 78 nett, R/up Cindy Godfrey 79 nett, Gross Winner Sonia Kenway 91. NTPs (2) Sue Williamson, (18) Sonia Kenway.

BRD to 82 nett. Division 2: Winner Val Turner 77 nett, R/up Lorraine Dillon 80 nett. Division 3: Winner Gloria White 81 nett, R/up Ruth Parish 82 nett. Gross winner Bridget John 115. BRD to 83.

Look forward to seeing you on the fairways.

Glasshouse Bowls Club

Contributed by David Hayes Wednesday, April 5 - Ladies A Singles final: Di Hume def Rae Farrell 25-11. Rae put up a great fight but in the end Di ran her down for a great win. Well done to both ladies. Social Bowls: Noelle Dean, Jenny Hobson and Ron Rix def Graham Meyers, Marilyn Podmore and John Annakin 18-10. Noelene Annakin, Margaret Beasley and Warren Blackbourne def Russell Walmsley, Lyn Griffiths and Ron Wilson 19-16.

Marilyn Boulton and Dennis Hume def Maz Idle and Rhyliss Aitken 20-5. All social games finished early due to the rain. Thursday, April 6: Winners of the day were Greg Sauer and Brian Saunders with 2 wins + a 18 margin. R/Up with a margin of + 11 in the second game were John Annakin and Graham Nicholson.

Lucky draw went to Lindsay Henderson and Col Allen.

An expression of interest sheet is up in office shed for Men's Pennants for 2017. We are after more players.

This year our Club is in Division 1 and 4. Monday Monthly Jackpot Open Triples will be back on April 24. Cost will be $15.00 per person for two games of 15 ends with lunch included. Please arrive 10.00am for a 10.30am start. Last year was very successful, so I hope we get the numbers again. Jackpot will start at $100.00. Men’s B grade singles is open and will close Thursday, April 20. Grab your nomination form from the club now. Men’s Pairs draw has been done and can be seen at the club. Round 1 and 2 is Saturday April 22. I think this will be one of the best pair competitions we have had in years with 16 teams competing to be number one for 2017. Every Sunday our club runs bowls coaching from 10.30am to noon.

This morning is open to everyone who wants to come along for a bowl, either for fun or to improve their game. There will be no coaching Easter Sunday.

The Range Croquet Club

Contributed by Neil Lovett During the past week Nick Cram, Ken Barker and Vince Carbery played in the Sunshine Coast Regional Tournament, which was hosted by Headland/ Buderim. Wednesday started very wet but we made it through the day. Originally each participant was to play six games, but as play was cancelled on Thursday the draw was re-scheduled and we ended up doing battle in four games. Ted Singleton, Caloundra, won Block A with Bribie Island's Ken Wallman coming in second. Block B had Helen Matchett of Caloundra the winner, with Maleny's Nick Cram runner-up. Noel Stoddard of Nambour and Headland/Buderim's Garry Shaw filled the first two places in Block C. On Sunday, four players from Nambour and four from Caloundra joined our contingent of Donna Manning, Kath Smith, Val Carbery and Vince at the Nambour Croquet Club for a relaxing, friendly day of social croquet. The common bond which drew these people together was that they have all been playing croquet for more than twenty years. Nambour's Muriel Peters stood out with fifty years of playing this wonderful sport.

On Sunday at our own lawns, under a welcoming sky, Frances Harper nosed out Nick 8-7 and Ken won 13-7 against Sarah Widin.

Wednesday brought the second round of the Lochwood Shield in Pennants, with our team journeying to Coolum. Results (with our players named first) were Ken 14 Peter Sorensen 6, Donna 22 Patricia Smith 26 and Donna and Ken 10 Patricia and Peter 15. Coolum won 2-1, but with our previous 3-0 victory, we are still well placed on the ladder.

At home on Thursday Frances beat Helen Andrews and John Crofts 8-5 while Val continued coaching Yve Johnson and Carol Clark.

Our lawns are in the Maleny Showgrounds on Stanley River Road. For information about joining, coaching, hiring or hours of play, ring Vince Carbery on 5494 2193 or Priscilla Vickers on 5494 3555.

He showed up at the zoo and they weren't there!

He headed back into his truck and started driving around the town, looking for any sign of the penguins, the man, or his car.

While driving past a movie theatre, the truck driver spotted the guy walking out with the ten penguins.

The truck driver yelled, "What are you doing? You were supposed to take them to the zoo!"

The man replied, "I did and then I had some extra money so I took them to go see a movie."

Contributed by Kevin Speirs, Elimbah

Your Stars with Edgar J. Winter - www.astroclairvoyant.com LEO July 23 - August 22 An Aries Full Moon brings opportunities to break new ground, meet new people and learn new things. All it takes for you Leos is a willingness to step out of your old safe, familiar routines.

Some people arouse jealousy or other difficult feelings. As sensitivities are at a peak, couch your remarks in careful terms. Be patient.

VIRGO August 23 - September 22 This emotional and dynamic Full Moon is into your financial axis. For now there is a major urgent moment in your life with the theme of money. Take care of all necessities, such as food and clothing, but avoid spending on wasteful items. Mid-week, take some time to break out your old unconventional side.

LIBRA September 23 - October 22 This wonderful Full Moon creates a desire for more freedom and space. Whether you and a partner need to go off on your own, or the two of you want a break from routine, there is a restless need for a change. If there is a reluctance to give, share, or commit, then such feelings need to be understood and respected.

SCORPIO October 23 - November 22 The emotional energies of this Full Moon points to your psychological need to discuss something very frankly with a close friend. The Moon, moving into your sign, is not in a happy state until you find the peace you are looking for. This is all tied up perhaps with a grudge, and you may need to release some steam.

10

14

SAGITTARIUS November 23 - December 22 The world of new possibilities becomes available to you under a Full Moon, with the emphasis on socializing in new group events. There are changes that should be welcome and positive.

The best advice you can have is to avoid looking at current problems through the lens of wounding by past experiences. Retrograde planets require medical visits.

CAPRICORN December 23 - January 19 There is a powerful search light in your business sector and the recent 12 months of your work, and any renovations of your home, cumulating into a major crisis, requiring you to take care of immediate urgencies. This relates to the planet Saturn in reverse motion for the next five months. It’s time for a major health review.

AQUARIUS January 20 - February 19 As Mercury goes retrograde for the next three weeks, you may have to revisit past decisions, especially concerning expenditures around your home. Be flexible, don’t make permanent changes. There is a chance to go on a trip that turns out to be a lucky experience. This is because the Full Moon week favours your routine and decisions.

PISCES February 20 - March 20 The emotional energy coming in from the Libran Full Moon and then into the Scorpio sign hits all your receptors, so it may not be all sweet and sugary right away, but warm tones and lucky breaks may occur over the weekend. A project keeps you busy and once it is done there is a warm hug waiting for you! Something surprising arrives!

Week beginning 12/04/17 ARIES March 21 - April 20 The Full Moon lends a breath of fresh air and excitement inspiring new starts and a chance to break new ground. You get what you want by bringing practical skills to bear on achieving goals. Those same goals must be daring and enterprising. Seek new experiences by the weekend as you will be meeting new people.

TAURUS April 21 - May 21 This week the Full Moon stresses the theme between you spending time alone and needing to be active at work. It’s important to look at your health as Saturn is going retrograde for five months. Expect to pay lots of attention to your skin, bones and teeth. The weekend sees the Moon giving you something jolting!

GEMINI May 22 - June 21 The week ahead, under this Full Moon influence, marks an emotional period for your personal and social life. Unplanned changes prove to be very positive. Be careful when you ask anyone for help as you risk getting pulled into their problems. Avoid making tactless remarks, which you are prone to do, especially under moon shadows.

CANCER June 22 - July 22 The Full Moon this week comes across the area of your chart which involves either your career or your home. Perhaps tension arises in these areas as you find it hard to balance emotional opposites. Be ready to handle unusual affairs of other people which can be unnerving, however you will be pleased somebody really cares for you.

Need a hand?

A man was driving and saw a truck stalled on the side of the highway that had ten penguins standing next to it. The man pulled over and asked the truck driver if he needed any help.

The truck driver replied, "If you can take these penguins to the zoo while I wait for RACQ that will be great!"

The man agreed and the penguins hopped into the back of his car. Two hours later, the trucker was back on the road again and decided to check on the penguins.

YOU COULD WIN! APRIL 12 2017

DENTAL EXCEL - caring for the Hinterland community for over 19 yrs Meet Dr David Marley David Marley from Dental Excel is about to celebrate 20 years of living the dream in the Sunshine Coast hinterland, after he and his family moved over from the UK. David owned a successful family and cosmetic dental practice in Birmingham for many years, before falling in love with Australia.

Moving to the Hinterland, David bought his first dental practice in Beerwah and Marley Dental (now Dental Excel) expanded to five clinics.

David has over 43 years of extensive experience and has developed a great interest in restorative dentistry and full mouth rehabilitation as well as great belief in the benefits of

cosmetic dentistry.

“I always believe that a healthy mouth and an attractive smile are a great asset which should be nurtured and valued. Healthy teeth are acknowledged to have a great part to play in supporting good general health,” says David.

David has always been a passionate believer in that although dentistry may not be cheap – it is important that it is sound value for money, which offers patients the confidence that they are receiving a high standard of professional and ethical care and receiving the treatment appropriate to them.

David still keeps up to date with new innovations in his field such as his experience with surgical implants. He enjoys sharing this professional knowledge with his patients to assist improving quality of life for all.

DENTAL EXCEL IMPLANT CENTRE Dental Implants are available for all types of cases, where there is suitable bone. Ranging from replacement of a single missing tooth with an implant and crown, to replacement of conventional full dentures with fixed appliances such as All-on-4, or All-on-6 type restorations...and all in between.

Dr Finbarr O’Sullivan and Dr David Marley work exclusively with MIS Implants and the MIS Implant Centre in Melbourne and the great majority of implants are placed using the MIS M-GUIDE which is computer generated and enables very precise and atraumatic implant placement.

Dental Excel is investing in the latest technology to enable the treatment to be completed in the shortest time compatible with a successful outcome.

If you are contemplating implants or fixed dentures please book a free comprehensive consultation to ascertain your suitability for implant treatment and a no obligation quotation.
