Hi Everyone...

This week I am going to do something a little different. Instead of sharing my observations of the state of the world – well, Glasshouse Country and Maleny - I am going to try to convince you to do something for me.

And no it hasn’t got anything to do with uploading your photo to FaceApp so that we can share what you will look like in 20 years on our Facebook page for everyone’s amusement, although I am sure some of our readers would enjoy that.

Basically, what I need is no more than 10 minutes of your time. Head to our website and complete an online survey that will give us an insight into your readership of GC&M News, your views on community newspapers and your online/social media approaches to staying informed about your local area.

For those of you who feel more comfortable filling in a paper copy of a survey, it will be printed in the next two editions of the newspaper - July 31 and August 7.

We really appreciate you completing the survey so we can ensure that GC&M News can continue to bring local news to you into the future in a way that works best for everyone.

See the survey ad on page 16.

Residents and visitors to the Glass House Mountains region may see an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) flying over pine plantations in local state forests this week.

The fixed-wing UAV, operated by locally based Ninox Robotics, has a 2.75m wingspan and looks like a small aeroplane. The UAV will capture high resolution aerial imagery of young plantations for HQPlantations.

Operating under a commercial UAV licence granted by CASA, the remotely piloted UAV will be flown near Landsborough, Beerwah, Glass House Mountains and Woodford Monday-Friday, July 22-26.

HQPlantations resource information manager Lee Stamm said the data obtained from the surveys would allow HQPlantations to optimise the management of the crop.

Previously the company purchased generic aerial survey photography from local government taken by light aircraft.

Introducing SHOCKWAVE Great for Achilles Pain and Heel Pain

“The precision gained from this new approach will influence nutrition management, weed control and other factors that improve growth,” Mr Stamm said.

To perform this work, the UAV will fly about 350m above the ground at speeds of around 70km per hour.

“Ninox Robotics systems are highly capable, quiet and safe tools for gathering aerial intelligence,” Mr Stamm said. To allay concerns, he said imagery would only be recorded over the plantation licence area and HQPlantations’ freehold property.

“People don’t need to be concerned if they see it flying overhead en route to the plantations as it will not be filming then,” he said.

Plantation health is important to the region as almost all the timber harvested locally is processed at the AKD sawmill in Caboolture and is used in local residential and commercial construction. All areas where trees are harvested are then replanted in a continuous cycle that makes wood the ultimate renewable.

Crime in our area

Did you know that the Mooloolah IGA was broken into two weeks ago, with the four brazen thieves getting away with cash, charity donations, cigarettes and soft drinks?

The same night a business in Landsborough was broken into with a safe ransacked and cash stolen.

Due to a recent increase in business break-ins, the Queensland Police Sunshine Coast district is reminding locals to keep business security in mind and have suggested some security tips.

• When locking up and leaving your business, be aware of your surroundings.

• Are there any suspicious vehicles in the area?

• Are there any people loitering around the shop or has anyone been doing so during business hours?

• Consider placing warning signs around your business to deter intruders such as ‘no cash kept on premises’.

• Ensure there is clear visibility inside and outside your business through the use of good lighting.

• If applicable, keep shrubs and trees trimmed to prevent concealment of the premises.

• Protect windows and doors by installing security screens.

• Consider using deadlocks and solid doors.

• Consider reinforcing glass doors with shatter resistant film.

• Consider installing a safe that is always locked and anchored to the floor and wall of the premises.

• Limit cash kept on premises.

• Install CCTV cameras.

Crime is often on people’s minds and to find out what is going on in your neighbourhood, you can access crime statistics through the Queensland Police’s Online Crime Map www.police.qld.gov.au/forms/CrimeStatsDesktop.asp.

We took a look at the map for the local readership area and for the past three months (April 18-July 18), there were 461 offences across our region (compared with 492 the previous three months).

Elimbah – two offences (two arson) Beerburrum – 21 offences (two arson, four assault, one drug offence, three good order offences, three other property damage, one other theft, six traffic and related offences, one unlawful use of motor vehicle) Glass House Mountains – 67 offences (one assault, four drug offences, one fraud, four good order offences, one miscellaneous offence, two other property damage, 36 other theft, five traffic and related offences, one trespassing and vagrancy, eight unlawful entry, three unlawful use of motor vehicle, one other offences against the person) Coochin Creek – 73 offences (one arson, two drug offences, one fraud, two good order offences, 60 other theft, five traffic and related offences, one unlawful entry, one unlawful use of motor vehicle) Beerwah – 113 offences (five assault, 14 drug offences, seven fraud, ten good order offences, four handling stolen goods, three liquor, one other offences against the person, four other property damage, 27 other theft, 20 traffic and related offences, two trespassing and vagrancy, eight unlawful entry, five unlawful use of motor vehicle, three Weapons Act offences) Peachester – nine offences (two drug offences, one other property damage, four traffic and related offences, one unlawful entry, one Weapons Act offence) Landsborough – 65 offences (one arson, five assault, 12 drug offences, one fraud, four good order offences, three handling stolen goods, two other property damage, 15 other theft, seven traffic and

Specialists to the (remote) rescue It won’t come as any surprise to locals in the Glass House Mountains that the Queensland Fire and Emergency Services (QFES) remote rescue technicians, who undertake rescues in isolated and mountainous locations across the state, have attended about 120 remote rescues locally in the past three years.

These include 60 rescues in 2017 and 49 in 2018, which was the highest number in the state and took place at popular tourist walking and hiking tracks at Mt Tibrogargan, Mt Ngungun and Mt Beerwah.

QFES undertook its first two remote rescue pilot courses in August and September 2016 with 11 technicians trained in the North Coast region and five in the Brisbane region.

Fire and Emergency Services Minister Craig Crawford said the technicians’ work was important as firefighters were called when there was no access to a casualty without specialist climbing and vertical rescue skills.

GERMANY DRAMA 101 mins M a ‘Kafkaesque Casablanca’

www.malenyfilmsociety.info

“Walkers, hikers and climbers who are underprepared or exceed their capability, people who are lost, ill or injured due to a fall are the people QFES remote rescue technicians are called to help,” Mr Crawford said.

The technicians conduct search and rescue operations and often need to rescue and carry patients on stretchers over long distances in bushland or steep inclines.

SES volunteers continue to provide vital support alongside technicians and can assist in performing these rescues.

QFES acting commissioner Mike Wassing said remote rescue technicians, while already highly trained, were continuously furthering their abilities through regular training in remote rescue techniques.

“If someone is trapped or stranded in difficult terrain, our technicians use their climbing and vertical rescue abilities to reach and rescue them safely,” Mr Wassing said.

“Their knowledge and vertical rescue skills, like abseiling and climbing, also means they can access people who may be stranded or trapped at a height or down an embankment.

“When technicians reach a person they can perform first aid and provide care if required, often in an isolated area, before they can be taken to safety.”

Mr Wassing said remote rescue technicians knew the ins and outs of common hiking, climbing and walking areas and encouraged people to know the basics before heading on an outdoor adventure.

Caring for the Hinterland community for over 20 yrs

Ngungun track closure extended

The current major upgrade by Queensland Parks and Wildlife Service (QPWS) of the Mt Ngungun summit track at Glass House Mountains has been extended.

“QFES has this great ability to rescue people but it is important people take every step possible to ensure they won’t need our help,” he said.

“Walkers, hikers and climbers should know the area they are planning to visit, understand how easy or difficult the terrain might be and always take the right equipment.”

Mr Wassing said it was most important that walkers, hikers and climbers evaluated their personal ability to undertake these activities before they started to ensure they did not become the person that needed rescuing from our mountain areas.

“Before leaving they should check the weather and remember not to enter steep terrain if it is wet or rain is forecast.

“They should also tell someone where they are going, how long they will be and stick to the planned route,” he said.

Photos courtesy of Queensland Fire and Emergency Services

Work on the upgrade started on April 8 this year with an initial projected completion date of July 27.

With much higher than average rainfall and prolonged wet weather through May and June, it is anticipated that the track will be closed until Saturday, August 31.

In order to complete the works as quickly as possible, visitor access will be restricted for the duration of the works. All tracks, firebreaks and entry points will be closed to public access during this time.

QPWS thanks visitors for their patience and apologises for any inconvenience. As an alternative, visitors are advised to use the extensive trail network at the nearby Tibrogargan section of the Glass House Mountains National Park.

Signs and barriers are in place at the car park on Fullertons Road. For your safety, please obey all signs and directions from authorised officers on site and do not enter closed areas.

Business News Bookshop organises author's visit

Rosetta Books in Maleny knows how many fans award-winning crime writer Michael Robotham has in Maleny so has organised a return visit on Saturday, August 17 at the Maleny Community Centre at 5pm for a 5.30pm start.

Michael will be interviewed by Sue Collaro and will discuss his writing career and his new book, ‘Good Girl Bad Girl’.

Before becoming a novelist, Michael was an investigative journalist.

His 2004 debut thriller, ‘The Suspect’, sold more than a million copies around the world.

It was the first of nine novels featuring clinical psychologist Joe O'Loughlin, who faces his own increasing battle with a debilitating disease. Michael’s latest book ‘Good Girl Bad Girl’ features a new main character, forensic psychologist Cyrus Haven.

Tickets to see Michael are $15 or $43 if you would like a copy of his new book included, and are available from Rosetta Books or online at www.trybooking.com and search for Michael Robotham in Maleny.

Stepping Out Podiatry will shock you

Stepping Out Podiatry is introducing shockwave technology to the hinterland. This technology has been around for a while but recent studies have concluded that its effectiveness is just over 80% for chronic injuries.

Business owner Carly O'Donoghue said she was investing in this technology for the hinterland community as there was strong evidence that by using shockwave the level of pain could be reduced for chronic injuries that do not respond to standard treatment.

“I am, as well as our clients who have already had this treatment, extremely happy with the outcomes,” Carly said.

Shockwave is a noninvasive treatment option for people who have so far not responded to any treatment. The machine creates a pulse wave that hyper-stimulates the tissues encouraging a positive response from the body to increase healing.

The best results so far have been with Achilles tendinopathy for areas between the bottom of the heel and up to the calf/knee, and heel pain symptoms (plantar fasciitis and arch pain).

If you know anyone with heel or calf pain make sure you let them know about this evidence-based treatment that works, which is now at Stepping Out Podiatry. Call 1300 881 082 to make an appointment.

An historic hit for 80 years in Glass House Ninety people from across the generations came together on Saturday, July 13 to celebrate the 80th anniversary of the building that is now home to the Glass House Mountains Neighbourhood Centre.

This historic milestone event gave the quaint building a new lease of life.

The hall was filled with people reconnecting and sharing stories of their times in the building.

Uncle Alan Parsons opened with a welcome to country and Neighbourhood Centre president Carolyn Roberts gave an historic account of the building over the past 80 years.

Cr Rick Baberowski gave Lisa Malcom, a speech of support, Natasha Odgers and calling buildings such Uncle Alan Parsons as this as “an anchor of communities”.

All sang happy birthday to the building when a big cake, generously donated by CJ’s Bakery, was cut and shared to mark the occasion.

Original member of the Neighbourhood Centre, Joan Young, did the honours of cutting the Joan Young cutting anniversary cake. cake A highlight of the event was the newly formed choir of the Neighbourhood Centre, who filled the width of the building with men and women singing their hearts out.

The choir wore blue ribbons to honour the original choir who sang in the building.

Photos, memorabilia and a memoir book were on display for guests to get a glimpse of the past occasions held in the building.

Many people reunited over Devonshire tea and scones and stayed on for the lunch stalls.

New ideas, continued passion for Seb Messina Seb Messina from Beerwah Picture Framing has just returned from holidaying overseas. In their travels, Seb and Mary visited and enjoyed art shops and galleries throughout Europe and the USA, photographing beautiful landscapes and old-world cityscapes along the way. As a framer and a photographer, Seb loves discovering new ideas and applying them to his work.

Memorabilia is a hot topic at Beerwah Picture Framing. It is worth mentioning that Seb loves framing football jerseys, sports shirts and the like. Memorabilia is usually framed in a deep frame or box frame for a football. Framed sports posters look great in the rumpus room with lots of wall space; photographs and plaques can also be included in the framing. An important point to consider when buying a poster, ensure that you purchase a quality product as there are a lot on the market that crease and don’t frame well.

Seb also advises it is best not to unpack your poster yourself as they are easily damaged and once creased cannot be reversed. Experienced at unpacking and repacking posters, Seb is more than happy to do this for you.

With over 25 years’ experience as a working professional photographer, Seb is equipped to carry out any photographic assignment that you may need fulfilled through his commercial photography business, Seb Messina Photographics. Seb is also fully licensed for drone photography.

Now back on the job, Seb is ready to take in his customer’s special photographs or paintings and turn them into beautiful art pieces that will excite their owner every time they see them.

Remember that it’s best to call and make an appointment with Seb as he does not wish to disappoint if unavailable.

Seb loves getting in front of his computer and restoring old photos that have been through the ravages of time. Seb is thrilled to see the result of his work, bringing back historical images and printing them on complimentary paper surfaces. It’s worth remembering that Seb can also apply the same technology to the restoration of damaged or faded water colours, paintings or drawings. Beerwah Picture Framing can also print quality enlargements from your own digital files on a selection of print media.

Chaplaincy - High school’s safe haven

Contributed by Rhona Pelluchon April was quite upset as she walked to school on a winter’s morning trying to make sense of what was happening with her family and friends.

Nothing made sense … she was even questioning the existence of her own life.

She felt that she had no one to turn to and then a friend suggested she should speak with the school chaplain about how she felt.

Her life changed that day after speaking with the chaplain. She felt that she had someone to turn to without being judged.

It was a safe haven for her in a moment of time when she needed to get some clarity and direction towards her adult life.

April’s situation is typical of what faces a number of students at our schools every day and Maleny High is no exception.

It’s comforting to know that a chaplain can be an important part of supporting students like April.

Micah Jones, our new Maleny State High School chaplain, has a background as a youth pastor in Brisbane along with extensive language teaching experience over many years in schools in Vietnam.

The hinterland community has demonstrated its support for chaplaincy in the past, reflecting the value placed on this service.

On Wednesday, July 31 a chappy vintage tea will be held at The Orangery Maleny to raise funds to support Micah in his role as chaplain at MSHS. Come along to meet and hear from our local chaplain while enjoying a decadent morning tea.

Tickets are $20 per person and can be purchased online via Facebook Maleny State High School Chaplaincy or at Maleny Optical, Nellies Hair Design, The Orangery and Maleny High School.

To find out more about chaplaincy or how to donate, phone Deb Stewart at Maleny High School on 5499 8111.

Maleny Youth Festival is back

The Maleny Flexi School, in partnership with Boab Dreaming Solutions and the Maleny Neighbourhood Centre, is keen to get local young people involved in the sixth annual Maleny Youth Festival planned for Friday, September 13.

The festival, which also marks the 20th anniversary of the Maleny Flexi School, will recognise students, staff and volunteers who have contributed to this learning community over the past two decades.

Boab Dreaming Solutions CEO Lyndal Regent said the theme the students had chosen this year was the Day of the Dead, which gives them the opportunity to come together and celebrate all that has gone before, all that is and all that will be.

“This year, we will have a fantastic line up of bands, live entertainment, workshops, fortune telling, stalls and food stands,” Lyndal said.

“We have invited Youth Support Services to come and be a part of the event to deepen their connection in the hinterland community.

“Last year we were humbled by the support from the community and their presence. This year we celebrate with students past and present, and call on the community to once again come and enjoy the day and help us make this our best event yet,” she said.

Keep watch on their social media platforms to stay informed of what is happening. On Instagram follow #malenyyouthfestival and #malenyspaces for updates and more.

The future of community newspapers

By Lea Parkes A couple of weeks ago in my column I talked about how different the world of community newspapers is these days compared to when we took over what was then Glasshouse Country News back in 2004.

At that time the newspaper was A4 size, we basically printed in black and white with full colour on the cover, and the centre pages were for Laurie Evans real estate. The newspaper was delivered tightly rolled in plastic and was thrown into people’s yards.

Just after we bought the business, we did a survey via the newspaper and by interviewing people at the Beerwah Marketplace to get as much feedback as possible about what readers liked/loved or, in some cases, loathed about the paper.

I am sure some readers from that time won’t be surprised to know that one of the biggest issues was not about the newspaper’s content but about how the paper was delivered!

Readers found it too hard to first get the plastic

November, 2004

off and then difficult to flatten out before you could even begin to read it.

It wasn’t too long before we introduced a raft of changes to the paper, including the newspaper being printed on newsprint in full colour. We also changed the delivery so that papers were inserted into loose bags for delivery, and we eventually transitioned to letterbox delivery for about 90% of our delivery area.

Over almost 15 years we have had many changes, not just to our delivery approach. We have continued to expand our delivery, change the content, evolve the format and generally try to keep up with what is happening in our industry.

Since 2011 we have been creating an online version of the newspaper and for the past few years we have also been uploading the paper via our Facebook page each week.

A couple of years ago the federal government announced the Regional and Small Publishers Innovation Fund, which offered a competitive grants program to support regional and small

November, 2010

publishers to transition to and compete more successfully in the evolving media environment.

We decided to apply for a grant to assist us in conducting research to get a better understanding of GC&M News readers’ attitudes, behaviours and expectations regarding accessing news about their local community into the future.

GC&M News was one of only two small Queensland community newspapers that successfully received grant funding, so we are keen to see it well used to help us make the best decisions for continuing to bring local news to you into the future, in a way that works best for everyone.

The survey has been designed to take around 10 minutes to complete. We genuinely appreciate you taking the time to share your views, and for those of you who don’t want to complete the survey online a hard copy will be printed in the July 31 and August 7 editions of GC&M News and we will pay for the cost of posting it back.

Good luck for those who complete the survey and enter the draw to win one of four iPads.

Are you diabetes aware?

Do you know the 4T early signs of type 1 diabetes? Did you know a risk check for type 2 diabetes only takes a minute? National Diabetes Week, held last week (July 14-20), highlighted awareness of the signs and symptoms to help early detection of the disease.

This year’s National Diabetes Week campaign slogan was ‘It’s about time’ (we all took the time to get tested), which focussed on raising awareness about the 4Ts that can indicate the early warning signs of type 1 diabetes - tired, thirsty, thinner and toilet - as well as reminding people to take the time to get checked for type 2 diabetes. Both types of diabetes are more common than people realise.

At Doctors at Landsborough, practice nurse Cathy Anderson is a highly qualified diabetic educator.

A registered nurse for over 30 years, Cathy has specialised in the area of chronic disease management and has completed her graduate

certificate in diabetes education and management. She has a special interest in assisting people with newly diagnosed type 2 diabetes so they can self-manage their condition. Cathy works closely with dietitians, GPs and endocrinologists to achieve optimal outcomes for people living with diabetes and is committed to helping people achieve good health and wellbeing.

Although people can develop type 2 diabetes at any age, the risk increases for those who are aged

over 40, are overweight or have a family history of type 2 diabetes.

The earlier people are diagnosed, the more time they have to live well and reduce their risk of complications.

Doctors at Landsborough offers the convenience of 100% bulk billing for general practice care, so with no out-of-pocket expenses for Medicare card holders, why not book in and take the time to get checked for diabetes. If you have any individual or family health concerns the team of health professionals - Dr John Dunlea (Dr John), Dr Louise Mitchell (Dr Louise), Dr Ayla Polat-Kaya (Dr Ayla) or Dr Brittany Weaver (Dr Brittany) - along with the medical support staff are here to help.

Community Groups Country music charity concert Contributed by Juanita Owen The Velvet Country Music Club of Caloundra is holding its seventh annual charity concert on Sunday, August 4 from 11.30am at the Uniting Church hall, 56 Queen Street, Caloundra.

We are having a guest artist, Rosanna Ruddick, a multi-award winning artist and a most sought after artist on the coast. She has just released her fifth CD, ‘Classis Country’. Rosanna has performed nationally and in New Zealand. She is always ready to help out with fundraisers when requested.

She has performed a number of concerts including for the Relay for Life Cancer Research, a charity close to her heart.

Everyone is invited to come along, have some fun, win some great raffle prizes and enjoy our walk up artists who perform with our very talented band for backing music.

Over the past six years we have been able to donate $32,000 to multiple charities, which includes Life Flight, Ronald McDonald and Dove Cottage.

This year we are donating once again to Dove Cottage Palliative Care Unit Caloundra.

Many people locally would have had some association with this facility. It provides care for end of life illness for both patient and family, and what a marvellous job they do.

On the day we will have multiple raffles, with a major prize being a three night P&O country cruise on the Pacific Explorer valued at $1400 donated by Linda Hicks Travel Managers, as well as a six-month membership for Curves at Caloundra valued at $683, an opal necklace valued $380 as well as vouchers for Bunnings, the Power Boat Club, Gingers Boutique and many more. Refreshments are available for lunch and afternoon tea at a reasonable cost.

Special thanks also to our major sponsor 104.9FM, who are a great radio station.

Glasshouse Country VIEW Club Contributed by Janet Kitchin Our lunch meeting this month was a time to catch up and also to discuss and vote on resolutions to help needy children and women throughout this country. These resolutions are put forward by VIEW clubs nationally and then put to the federal government to try to bring them into being.

Our next outing will be to Moffat Beach headland for whale watching on August 7. We will meet at Beerwah Library car park at 9am.

Please bring a seat, morning tea to share and binoculars.

Anyone interested in joining us would be most welcome. For more information about our club please speak to Trish on 5493 0026 or Janet on 0448 845 303.

VIEW clubs raise money for The Smith Family and Learning for Life Program at all their events.

Our club supports five Learning for Life students.

Many hands made swift work Contributed by Renate Ogilvie A large group of enthusiastic volunteers arrived at the Maleny Uniting Church on Saturday, July 13 for the Zonta Club of the Blackall Range’s annual birthing kit packing day.

The birthing kits are a collection of essential items to ensure the health and survival of mothers and their babies in developing countries.

18

The women attending shared stories with one recalling the story of a woman in Bhutan who had given birth in a field, only to continue her work with the newborn baby strapped to her back.

The volunteers pondered how fortunate we are in Australia to have proper medical support and they hoped to be able to continue this essential task for many years to come.

The group made swift work, with many volunteers having participated in the annual birthing kit assembly for several years.

After a tea break with delicious offerings and a welcome opportunity to sit in the warm sunshine outside, the kits were quickly finished and packed in large boxes ready to be shipped.

Turn your property ideas into a building reality Do you have an idea for a property design project but don’t know where to start? Are you thinking of selling or buying property or land, or have an investment property and would like to explore what additional options are available in terms of design, development or expansion? Tony Greaves from New Nest Building Design can offer a range of professional design, feasibility and building project guidance to help develop your ideas into a project reality.

Tony has extensive experience in the building industry and through his design and planning skills, development and project management experience, coupled with his personal experience of buying, selling and developing property, he can offer clients a seamless transition from the ideas stage through to building project fruition.

A key point of difference with the work that Tony does is that he is happy to provide an upfront indication of what fees and costs are involved in a design, planning and professional consultation.

This allows clients to realistically plan and budget for their project, which is always easier when they can see the professional costs involved.

“In the past I’ve always been frustrated when

New Nest BuildiNg

surfing the web for professionals and having no idea what their costs would be. Therefore one of the first things I’ve done with establishing New Nest Building Design is to provide an easily available predicted cost guide to relieve some of that frustration,” Tony explained.

“I’m not here to dictate what should be done in regards to a client’s project. My skills are to draw on my building industry and planning experience to help guide clients and assist developing ideas into a project reality.

“For those unfamiliar with the building, expansion or development process, it can be quite daunting and I look forward to working with clients to provide a smooth transition to ensure their building project ideas, no matter how big or small, become an easy to achieve reality.”

Some of the services that New Nest Building Design can provide include initial feasibility of the project; professional and informative services; and navigation through the various requirements of the building process. Preparation of plans and the ability to work within a client’s budget in relation to the project, as well as recommendation of other professionals to facilitate approval, ensure the highest standards are achieved with minimal stress for the client.

Work that can be achieved includes design and plan work for carports, decks, patios and pergolas, and alterations and additions to all types of existing houses. For those wishing to develop townhouses, New Nest Building Design can prepare sketch designs for a council prelodgement meeting, prepare plans for council DA (development approval) and prepare working drawings for building certification.

Other professional services include onsite meeting with client and or other professionals (eg, engineers, town planners, building certifiers, builders) and measuring up existing building structures.

Tony explained that for those wanting to consider the process or to make initial contact, it is really easy and straightforward. He suggests initially emailing through the site address, any additional information in regards to the property, including a brief outline of thoughts and ideas, and any questions regarding the property.

“Even if you’re not sure what you can do, that’s fine. Let me know any initial ideas or suggestions and I will get back to you with some relevant information,” Tony said.

“Also, if you are selling or buying a property, I may be able to help you in regards to the possible uses of your site (subject to council approval). I look forward to talking to you about your ideas and helping them become a reality.”

Rotary grants open for local community groups Eight local community organisations received a total of almost $7,500 last year as part of the inaugural Rotary Club of Glasshouse Mountains grants program.

The program was so well received and the results achieved so beneficial that Rotary decided to open the grants up again, according to club secretary Ian Hope.

“2018 was the first year we offered these grants. We were pleased that we were able to consider a diverse range of projects from many different organisations in Glasshouse Country,” Ian said.

“There were applications from a school P&C looking at managing bullying in the school to assisting the Peachester History Committee with enhancing their historical display facilities.

“Consequently, we were able to assist the successful organisations with their needs to improve our community.”

The 2018 recipients were the Believe subcommittee of the Landsborough State School P&C Association ($1,000); Mooloolah River Waterwatch and Landcare Inc ($800); Peachester History Committee Inc ($1,000); Beerwah Sportsground Management Committee Inc ($1,000); QCWA Inc Beerwah branch ($790); Landsborough Area Community Association Inc ($883.50); Landsborough School of Arts Memorial Hall Association Inc ($1,000); and Celebrate Glasshouse Country Inc ($1,000).

It’s time for not-for-profit groups in the postcode areas of 4517, 4518, 4519, 4550 and 4553 to apply for the $1,000 grants again.

There is a simple application form that can be accessed from the Rotary Club of Glasshouse Mountains (5348 9054 or info@glasshouserotary.com. au) or can be downloaded from the GC&M News website (www.gcnews.com.au/content/2209/RotaryGHMgrants.aspx).

Environment Local legends

The Boomerang Bags Beerwah group was excited to have a visit at the last working bee from journalist Katie Toney from Seven Local News, who was keen to hear all about the group and the ethos behind Boomerang Bags.

The Beerwah CWA ladies and other volunteers from the group were thrilled to be featured in the local legends segment.

The Beerwah CWA hosts monthly working bees for the Beerwah Boomerang Bags group and anyone interested in participating is invited to come along for a fun morning helping to stem the tide of single use plastic in the local community.

Sewing skills are not essential as there is cutting fabric and ironing to be done as part of the whole process.

The next working bee will be at the Beerwah CWA Hall in Simpson Street next Monday, July 29 from 10am-1pm. For enquires please call Anna on 0405 207 729.

With Charne Turner This week the typical sunny weather of July has made the rainforest reserve glow after the rain of the previous month.

Misty mornings and sparkling days have enticed the winter birds to warble and fantastic fungi to feature.

Mary Cairncross Scenic Reserve is a great place to visit any time. The dedicated Education Centre volunteers have been kept busy interpreting the sights and sounds of the forest for the many visitors over the school holidays.

Eight new volunteers were recently inducted and regular induction courses are run to meet the demand of staffing the Education Centre for eight hours a day, 363 days a year.

For the past three years, FMCA has awarded a scholarship to a student of the University of the Sunshine Coast in environmental research that will benefit the rainforest.

The 2019 winner of the scholarship is a Bachelor of Science (Honours) student, Dylan Westaway. His research focuses on the distribution of night birds namely the sooty, powerful and masked owls, and the marbled frogmouth. He is exploring the relationship between human land use and the presence/absence of these nocturnal predators within the Sunshine Coast and hinterland, including the Mary Cairncross Scenic Reserve. Dylan will present his findings to FMCA later in the year, which should be a hoot.

Anyone interested in joining FMCA the cost is just $10 per year and you can pick up a form at the Education Centre.

The next general meeting and AGM will be on October 19 at 10am at the centre.

The Friends of Mary Cairncross Association aims to protect and enhance the natural environment of the Mary Cairncross Scenic Reserve. To find out how to become involved check out www.friends-of-mary-cairncross.com.au or call 5435 0348.

Paint Place Beerwah gets a makeover!

As a long-time local and award-winning business, Paint Place Beerwah has stood the test of time. Owner Anthony Austin has a lifetime of experience in the paint industry and has been working towards the dream of opening a purpose built, stand-alone shop for many years. That dream has now become a reality with the grand opening of the new Paint Place store located at Shop 3, 28 Simpson Street, Beerwah - just a short walk down the footpath from his original store.

As a local, and especially as a local business owner, Anthony knows how important it is to provide services for residents of the area and for locals to support their local operators. Embracing the motto ‘Buy local - support local’, Anthony is pleased to be able to continue offering locals his expertise, now from a much bigger, brighter and more modern shopfront – still with the

convenience of parking out front.

Your local Paint Place is definitely a one-stop painting shop with the lot! With professional advice catering to all budgets, computer colour matching and a complete range of leading brand paints including industrial, automotive, decorative, textures, wood care and accessories, the team at Paint Place definitely knows paint.

Come along and help Anthony and the team celebrate their big new makeover at their grand opening celebrations this Saturday, July 27 from 8am, with free sausage sizzle, face painting and raffles to support local charity endED. Paint Place Beerwah is open Monday-Friday 7:30am-4:30pm and Saturdays 8am-12noon.

You can contact them on 5439 0999.

You Said It Glasshouse Country cricketing history GC&M News regularly features Flashback Friday on our Facebook page where we share past stories from our pages. However, we recently received this snippet from a local from before GC News’ time, when local news was reported by the Nambour Chronicle.

This article was from 50 years ago in August 1969 and highlights the merging of cricket teams from Landsborough and Beerwah, with the headline ‘Cricket teams combine' and formed the Southern Districts Cricket Club.

If anyone was involved with this meeting and can provide more details we would love to be able to share more of the story.

Landsborough rail/overpass upgrade

There has been a lot of speculation as to the plans TMR has regarding the Landsborough rail upgrade and the overpass. Attempts to meet with TMR representatives have been unsuccessful in the past. However, some members of Landsborough Area Community Association Inc, who were told they were directly impacted by the rail upgrade, had a meeting with the TMR recently and were told the following: • There is no set plan or place decided on for the overpass at this point. When there is, the Landsborough community will be notified and will have the opportunity to have input.

• There is $550 million committed to the project.

This will not cover everything. TMR will do as much as possible with the available $550 million.

• The funded project is for Beerburrum to Landsborough. Landsborough to Nambour will be done when more funding is available.

• The bend in the rail track near Morris House in Old Landsborough Road will not be removed.

• The Gympie Street North crossing is not included.

• The overpass is to avoid the previous (existing) Caloundra Street crossing.

• The first part of the work will start with the Beerburrum car park.

• The Y shaped train turnaround siding at Landsborough station (see image below) will be preserved due to its heritage listing but how this will be done is not yet worked out.

• The proposed car park on the eastern side of the town will have approximately 240 parks. This land will be needed for use during construction so the car park will not be done until the Y is relocated and the land is not needed for the construction process.

• Surveying has already started – TMR said this is to give them reference points.

• No date has yet been set for actual work to commence.

• Anyone wishing to speak with TMR can access the project people by email at B2N@tmr.qld.gov.au.

Where do our politicians come from?

We have a Prime Minister who gives money away to outside countries, willy-nilly, like Samoa where he recently visited and announced $250 million for them while Australia is in terrible trouble with no water. Our rivers, lakes and dams are empty.

Haven’t our politicians ever heard of a chap called Bradfield, a civil engineer who suggested a genuine fix back in the 1930s. He had a lot to do with a road and two bridges that are still standing and icons.

It has been said that the Ord River Scheme in Western Australia is able to supply the whole of Australia with water.

Monsoonal rains in the top of Queensland can be harvested and sent down to look after our western rivers via the Thomson River. It can, at the same time, get Lake Eyre back to capacity.

It is also known that even salt water taken out of the ocean will not only purify itself over a distance, it will also drop the salt and leave drinking water in its place.

Then there is the Water Minister, a bloke named David Littleproud. What qualifications does he possess?

This fella wants to fix the problem with the Murray-Darling basin but he needs to fix the top first to allow water to flow and actually get there.

Our local bloke, Andrew Wallace, knows about the water problems. He also knows and has heard of Mr Bradfield. How about stepping up to the plate, make this work, get Australia back on track.

We lived off the sheep’s back for years and, believe it or not, they are on the way back but they and the humans need water.

Think about Australia for a change, put us first.

MalenyWhat Realty her Sellers Say

Your first choice in Real Estate

Best real estate sales experience EVER! Jess took a fresh approach, more in line with my own beliefs and experience.

Long story short; within two weeks I had a contract, which was right on the button, to a buyer who was exactly who we chased and as it turned out, around $100,000 over the valuations of others.

Jess organised our signatures overseas and even paid for some mowing while we were away. Great fit. Great service.

I am totally over the moon.

Warren - Seller Maleny Stanley River Rd

Jess looked after us completely when selling the family home recently.

After each open home with potential buyers she communicated with us to secure the best possible outcome for everyone.

She was warm, patient and helpful with everything.

I would not hesitate in highly recommending her professionalism, care and the results she delivers.

Genevive - Seller Tamarind St

Because of Jess’ extensive real estate experience, local knowledge and contacts, I made one call telling her I wanted a sale but I didn’t want it on the market.

The same day Jess called me to say she had an interested buyer.

After a week a contract was signed for exactly the figure I wanted.

I recommend Jess because she doesn’t just ‘get it’, Jess ‘nails it’ – on all levels.

You couldn’t be in safer hands.

Vicki - Seller Cherry St

Jess did a fantastic job selling my house.

Not only did she achieve a MUCH better result than other agents said was possible, but she did so with such enthusiasm and outstanding professionalism.

She stayed in contact constantly throughout the sale and kept me up to date with everything.

I am blown away by Jess’s passion and determination and couldn’t recommend her more highly as an agent.

Thank you Jess and well done!

Nicholas - Seller Mountain View Rd

Jess is the top selling individual agent in Maleny – Greater Region* and after a record 6 months of sales, she urgently needs listings so make sure you call her today to discuss the market or arrange an obligation free appraisal. *Source realestate.com.au

From the churches Stopâ&#x20AC;Śstopâ&#x20AC;ŚSTOP! Crunch The car dented; the culprit drove off in a hurry.

The feeling of disgust was tangible in the air as the crowd of onlookers in the carpark made sure that someone took the number plate and would take it to the authorities.

It wasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t my car that got hit. It wasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t a car of a relative or even a friend. Yet I felt the surge of righteous anger rising in my chest as this person, this criminal, drove off leaving the damaged car and its owner in its dust.

Why is it that you and I are so fired up by wrongdoing?

Why is it that we all cry out for justice?

I believe itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s because God made us to reflect Him and He is just.

Psalm 7 says that the Judeo-Christian God â&#x20AC;&#x153;is a righteous judge, and a God who feels indignation every dayâ&#x20AC;?.

Just think about that for a second. This God feels that same anger that I felt against injustice. Every.

Single. Day. What does God do with that feeling? The Psalm continues: â&#x20AC;&#x153;If a man does not repent, God will whet The Anglican Parish of CALOUNDRA & GLASSHOUSE COUNTRY BEERWAH: Sunday 9am, Mary MacKillop Centre, 160 Peachester Rd MOOLOOLAH: Wednesday 9am, St Thomas, 31 Bray Rd

Isaiah Logan, Associate Pastor Glasshouse Country Baptist Church his sword; he has bent and readied his bowâ&#x20AC;?. Heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll kill him.

Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s full-on but thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s ultimately what we want when we cry out for justice. We want wrong doers to pay. We want things to be fair. And we want that because God wants that. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s only right.

Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s why so many people who donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t want to believe in God have embraced karma. It comes from our God-given desire for everyone to get what they deserve.

And God says everyone will get what they have earned in the end. That means that you donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t need to get even. You can forgive and let go because justice will be done.

But what about you? What have you earned?

Romans 6:23 says: â&#x20AC;&#x153;For the wages of sin is death, but the free gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lordâ&#x20AC;?.

Unlike karma, God gives you and me a way out.

Repentance. Turn away from sin and accept Godâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s gift of eternal life.

Clouds Vineyard Cafe a real delight

In recent ads GC&M News has run for the Clouds Vineyard Maleny Café at the Big Barrel, they promote all day breakfast, lunch, dine in, take away, beautiful gardens and easy parking.

Having visited quite a few times I can confirm that all of these things are absolutely true!

My favourite café items are all found on a breakfast menu, so my idea of heaven is somewhere that serves an all-day breakfast.

I recently enjoyed the eggs benedict (hold the hollandaise sauce), with warm smoked salmon and a side order of haloumi and it was totally delicious.

Brownie can confirm that the braised lamb is also a great choice for a lovely tasty warm lunch on one of these cold winter days without being too hearty.

Our mates who tried some of the other lunch menu options agreed that the unusual mix of flavours, textures and colours (I am pretty sure these are what the MasterChef judges talk about) all make some very satisfying choices as well.

I can’t say that I have ordered off the kids menu, but I have checked it out and there are some great choices for those 12 years and under, all priced up to $10.

Parking and access to the cafe is very easy.

The gardens surrounding the buildings are being lovingly tendered and are looking wonderful.

So I reckon they definitely have something that will impress everyone!

Hinterland Families School reviewed

YOU'RE NEVER FULLY DRESSED WITHOUT

A

Beerwah State High School was recently involved in a whole school review.

These reviews are undertaken every four years and are conducted by the Department of Education’s School Improvement Unit (SIU).

The review looks at the strategies and programs the school has in place and evaluates their value and effectiveness as well as providing the school with recommendations for the future.

Beerwah State High School’s senior captains Breanne Howden and James Poole, Peter Grant from the SIU (centre) and junior captains Tara Weston and Riley Ferguson

Getting their groove on

Contributed by Kate Burnett It’s no secret that movement is an important part of education. At Peachester State School we take movement seriously, allowing our students time to explore the beautiful bushland and gardens on the school grounds.

In term two we brought movement into our curriculum, partnering with Footsteps Dance Students dance performance Company, an age-based movement program designed to enhance social skills, confidence and creativity.

Each Monday for four consecutive weeks, our prep to year 6 students learned various individual and partnered dances, coordinating movements and finetuned their gross motor skills.

The final lesson ended with a special performance for parents where the children showcased their hip hop, funk and modern pop moves in front of their biggest fans.

A special thank you to Footsteps Dance Company who inspired and encouraged our students to give dancing a go, learn a new skill and have lots of fun.

In just one generation, the average Australian childhood has shifted from a largely outdoors, active, independent, social, community-oriented play to a mostly indoors, sedentary, technologically immersed, highly structured, fearful and riskaverse play space.

Nature Play Queensland has been established to provide opportunities for children to spend time in unstructured play outdoors.

The organisation has created ‘The Neighbourhood Play Project’, a documentary that explores the issue, looks at ways to help activate local communities and how to invite kids back out into the neighbourhood to play.

The documentary will be screened at Landsborough State School hall on Friday, August 2 at 3.30–6.30pm for interested community members.

Nature Play Queensland manager Hyahno Moser will attend the screening to share resources for activating our local neighbourhoods as play spaces and to answer any questions from parents.

The event is suitable for the whole family and there will be some organised activities for kids if they don't want to watch to film. Light refreshments will be available.

This is a free event but you need to register at www.eventbrite.com.au by searching for Neighbourhood Play Project. To find out more about the organisation go to www.natureplayqld.org.au or its Facebook page.

Best of all for parents, these wholesome food options are all included in the daily fees.

Centre coordinator Keosha Lougesen explained that as well as having a strong nutritional focus, the daily menu is also prepared to suit the specific developmental needs of each age group.

“For example, we offer organic baby cereal, fruit and puree on the nursery room menu while our older children love our selection of seasonal meals including finger food options,” Keosha said.

“We want the children to be excited about healthy food choices, so we change the menu weekly, offer a wide selection of colours and textures that look and taste appealing, all the while fuelling their bodies and minds”.

Believing that introducing nutritious meals at an early age will pave the road to a lifetime of healthy food choices, Glass House Early Education Centre follows the philosophy of parent company

Glasshouse Country & Maleny News

Queensland Childcare Services, which supports the idea that children develop their tastes and attitudes about food and nutrition in their early years.

All meals prepared by the Healthy Cooking Company contain minimal sodium and refined sugar and are made without the use of nuts and eggs to ensure the safety of children who experience severe allergic reactions (anaphylaxis) to these products. The food is preservative-free as well as being free from artificial colours and flavours. Meals catered by the Healthy Cooking Company are all planned and prepared by their qualified chefs and dietitian using locally sourced fruit and vegetables from local suppliers. All meals are based on a balanced wholefood diet.

Special dietary or cultural needs are catered for wherever possible and vegetarian, gluten-free and dairy-free alternatives are available. As well as providing meals for the children, centre families are also able to preorder take home family meals online – which has proven to be a popular option.

Glass House Early Education Centre coordinator Keosha says that the benefits of healthy food choices is always actively encouraged at the centre. Educators regularly discuss the importance of healthy eating with the older children and always look to incorporate educational opportunities to reinforce these values. Planting seeds and cooking activities that highlight the importance (and yummy taste) of wholesome food are always popular and many of the school ready room learning opportunities promote positive food choices.

The Healthy Cooking Company was originally established by the founders of Queensland Childcare Services to assist in developing positive eating habits in the children who attend their centres.

The centre is open from 6.30am-6.30pm.

For more details about availability or for other enquiries, please call 5438 7311. Drop ins at the centre, located at 2 Page Street Glass House Mountains, are welcome for families wanting to find out more. No appointment is necessary.

Living - Arts New faces on stage

Some talented young people will take to the stage in Maleny Players’ next production, a trio of diverse one-act plays.

Players president Rob Hobson said the group was delighted to have recruited several outstanding performers aged under 25, while also welcoming back a couple of performers who last acted in Maleny some years ago.

Under the general title Dubious Expectations, the three short plays deal in very different ways with the theme of frustrated or unrealistic ambition.

‘How He Lied to Her Husband’ is a witty comedy by George Bernard Shaw, in which a young man believes he has found true love with an older married woman. The other plays, both locally written, are set in the present day.

‘The Volunteer’ by Rob Hobson is a serious drama of marital tension progressively ratcheting up between a mismatched pair.

‘The Artist’ by Andrew Wallace is an irreverent look at a self-doubting young modern painter. As he tries to complete his first big commission a helpful friend proves to be anything but.

Dubious Expectations promises to be diverting live theatre entertainment with something for everyone. While aiming to maintain the standard of the Players’ successful production of ‘Travelling North’ in March, the problems of ageing now make way for an emphasis on the disillusion of middle age and follies of youth.

Movies

with Jan Flynn from Maleny Film Society

Transit

"Ports are places where stories are told," says a character in this film. In this case, the port is Marseille where refugees gather to show their transit papers that they hope will allow them to move on to safer countries.

The director and writer, Christian Petzold, has skillfully adapted the 1942 novel by Anna Seghers, which dealt with people fleeing fascism to secure freedom in another country. He has transposed the World War II situation to contemporary Europe where people are fleeing persecution under other regimes. In doing so, he has created a tense, multi-layered thriller that explores that most topical issue - the statelessness of displaced people.

Refugee Georg (Franz Rogowski) flees to Marseille where he assumes the identity of a writer who has committed suicide in Paris. Carrying the dead man's transit papers, essential for him to exit France, Georg finds himself in an impossible situation when he falls in love with Maria (Paula Beer), who is searching for her husband. And the missing husband is none other than the dead writer whose documents Georg has stolen.

A sense of confusion, menace and powerlessness pervades this story, underlined by the dehumanising conditions the refugees are forced to endure in their quest for future security.

Variously described by critics as ingenious and extraordinary, ‘Transit’ was selected in 2018 to compete at the Berlin International Film Festival. Timely, gripping and deeply affecting.

When: Saturday, July 27 Where: Maleny Community Centre, Maple St, Maleny Food and drinks: Dinner 6-7pm catered by Claude's Food. Tea/coffee and homemade slice stand, drinks available from the bar.

Health &Beauty Have you considered Myotherapy Fully accredited myotherapist Rebekah Fitzgerald specialises in the treatment of headaches, migraines and jaw dysfunction as well as neck and shoulder issues.

Conveniently located in Glass House, Bec is passionate about empowering her clients and helping them achieve their goals through resultsdriven treatment, education and exercise.

Clinically based, bridging the gap between remedial massage and physiotherapy, myotherapy encourages movement through exercise and soft-tissue manipulation – stimulating the body’s innate healing response.

Acupuncture

a personalised, holistic approach to achieving positive health outcomes via massage, dry needling, hot and cold stone therapy, cupping, stretching and exercise.

Bec says that while massage is great for recovery, relaxation and maintenance, myotherapy is great at problem-solving and finding a cure.

As myotherapy looks to all aspects of a person’s lifestyle from sleep patterns, to previous medical history, diet and emotional and physical stress, it can also be a valuable tool to assist with depression, anxiety, stress, fatigue and insomnia.

For more information and bookings please contact Bec at Rebekah Lee Remedial Therapy on 0413 924 300.

In the Garden This winter’s top indoor gardening trends

Nambour’s recent Queensland Garden Expo showcased some of the latest in gardening trends.

Talking with Narelle Van Reyk, from Scotts Osmocote, she pointed out that indoor gardening and indoor plants are red hot at the moment.

Narelle predicts this winter’s trends are for more creativity, balcony herb gardens and indoor feature plants.

Here are six indoor plant trends she suggested for this winter: Plants become centre stage: Plants are becoming more popular as a simple way to decorate your living space. Although potting your plant in concrete, glass and ceramic pots help create aesthetics, the look is due to the plant itself. Some of the most popular decorative indoor plants include Swiss cheese plant, devil’s ivy, bamboo and rattlesnake plants.

Indoor salad gardening: Aussies are known for loving homegrown and healthy food. Just because it is cold outside doesn’t mean that you can no longer grow salad produce. Greens such as sprouts and lettuce are great to grow indoors during the cooler months. They don’t take up much space and are a great addition to the kitchen shelves.

Desert-scaping: Locally, winter is generally our dry season. As such, Aussie Pinterest fanatics are creating feature pieces out of succulents and cacti that can withstand the drier conditions. Group your cacti and succulent collections together in a single pot to create a feature piece with various characteristics. Always remember to add a layer of gravel beneath the soil for optimal drainage.

Recyclable pots: As more of us join the fight to get rid of single use plastics, a growing trend is upcycling used containers and bottles to pot indoor plants. This is a great DIY project for a cold winter's day - perfect for families with children who need indoor entertainment.

Indoor herb gardens: The greatest myth in gardening is that you need a backyard when, in fact, the most productive herb gardens live on terrace balconies and window sills. This winter’s hottest herbs will be mint, rosemary, basil and thyme. They’ll also become a delicious addition to your winter recipes.

Importance of good potting mix: Plants rely on the nutrients within the pot you plant them in to flourish. To ensure your plants reach their full potential, use a good quality, premium potting mix. Search for a potting mix with the Australian Standard red tick, which ensures that the mix has been manufactured with quality ingredients to comply with Australian Standards.

Give your plants a shot of controlled release fertiliser to ensure they have all the nutrients they need to remain happy and healthy.

Tree mystery solved

Good news Brian … a number of local plant detectives called the office to tell you that your mystery flowering tree is called Elaeocarpus bancroftii (common name ebony heart, Johnstone River almond or Kuranda quandong).

It comes from Far North Queensland rainforests, growing from Cooktown to Tully. It’s a slow grower, so yours could be fairly old.

In the north it will produce fruits that are edible but this far south it seems to struggle to bear fruit at all.

Permaculture Maleny group up and running Contributed by Phillip Sinn Between 40 and 50 people attended the meeting to form the Permaculture Maleny group, ranging from inexperienced through to some long-term established and well-known permaculture practitioners.

The high level of interest in this area is not surprising considering the eco-minded Maleny community. Many expressed excitement and that the formation of such a group was long overdue.

There are a huge range of activities for the group to become involved in, including community gardening, Permablitzes, workshops and guest speakers on a huge range of topics and permaculture site visits.

At the second meeting, to be held at 7pm on Monday, August 5 at the Maleny Neighbourhood Centre (17 Bicentenary Lane), there will be a focus on arranging the first of many activities and also looking at how the group might become involved in community gardening.

Anyone with an interest in permaculture is welcome. There is a $2 charge to cover the hire of the meeting venue.

Contact Phillip on 0416 193 395 for further information or follow the Facebook page Permaculture Maleny.

Contributed by Pauline Fraley Witta Wagtails played well against Maleny Magics with some very close scores. The weather was glorious and the day enjoyable. However, the Magics were the winners on the day. Thank you to Gerry Gabriel, Jan Maguire, Cynthia Garvie and Sonia Douglas.

Whistlers played at Maroochydore against the Phoenix. It was a beautiful day, and nice and warm when we were on the court. We had very tight games on every set, with lots of deuces and also tie breakers. We had enough for the day by the end but it was a good start for the season.

Score was 46-21 games, 6-2 sets. Team was Paula Cudmore, Brenda Warner, Donna Kuskopf and Aki Lepper.

The Wildcats were at home to old friends Caloundra Skylarks with lots of laughter and yelling on both sides. Pauline Fraley, Stacey English, Jenie Riding and Sonia Douglas came out fighting and were the conquerors at the end.

The score was 7-1 sets; 46-30 games.

This Sunday is the Mary Valley Come and Play Tennis Day 10am–2pm at Witta Tennis Club.

Adult social tennis including round robin and fun games with a barbeque lunch and prizes to be won. Registration fee is $10 and registrations are essential via email to nick.todorov@tennis.com.au.

Contributed by Ken Barber On Saturday, July 13, Sarah Widin and Kath Smith played Don Helmrich and Howard Williams from Caloundra in the Bray Shield competition. In the singles Sarah lost to Don 12–23 while Kath went down to Howard 9–17. In the doubles we were beaten 11–18. Congratulations Caloundra on a good result. Well done Maleny for fighting hard.

Donna Manning and Vince Carbery took advantage of the beautiful weather on Sunday, July 14 to play a 14 point game. Donna came out ahead 8–4.

Ken Barker went to the Gold Coast and enjoyed the excellent hospitality and lawns of three clubs – Burleigh Heads Palm Beach, Coolangatta and Southport – to play in the open and second division events of their annual tournament.

Coaching for beginners and others is available on the picturesque lawns at the bottom of the Maleny Showgrounds from 8-10am on Saturdays.

Rhee TaeKwon-Do Maleny Contributed by Nathan Arrowsmith There will be a free open day on Monday, August 5 from 6pm at the Maleny High School (Waroo Hall). This is the perfect opportunity to try out a traditional martial art. This will be special class where you will have an opportunity to learn some basic self-defence techniques and enjoy demonstrations by experienced students.

Rhee Taekwon-Do teaches self-defence techniques for children and adults, as well as promoting positive values such as respect for teachers and parents, self-discipline and perseverance. It’s great fun and it's also great for fitness and general good health.

Maleny Bowls Club Contributed by Graeme Glover The Wednesday night competition started after a few washouts and some great games were played. The Amigoes showed good early form in their season starter. It could be their turn to take out the trophy. Holidays have meant some teams get into the competition using backups.

Well done to the team that travelled away to represent the club. Thanks Joe Walters, Ray Ellemor and Jim Wiedman. Visits like these with our fellow clubs are very important for our club and near neighbours who reciprocate each month.

Friday Scroungers saw some good form, with Denis Kyling amassing a score larger than one could count to. The handicapper will check out his form. Positive feedback on the new format is much appreciated as people adjust to use all their bowls skills on the rink every Friday afternoon at 2pm for 2.30pm.

Sunday fast bowls is proving popular. Come and try this new format – it is bowls as never before.

All welcome, new or old.

A reminder to folks to nominate for championship events as listed in organisers that Miles Allen emailed to all members.

Well done to all who played in the triple finals last weekend, with Ian Chatterton and Dave Burgess continuing their good form in these club events.

Monday was the MBC monthly pairs. Well done to all our visiting clubs for your contribution to a great day of bowls.

Just for Laughs Job experience comes in handy

On the day of my big job interview I woke up late.

Frantically I threw on a suit.

“Oh no!” I thought. “My tie!” My Dad was out of town and wasn’t there to help me, and for the life of me I didn’t know how to tie a tie! I grabbed a tie and ran out the door.

“Excuse me sir,” I said to the crossing guard, “I have an important job interview. Can you please help me tie this tie?”

Your Stars ARIES March 21 - April 20 Just watch out as conversations will tend to be highly emotional this week, and some of it will be angry or guarded! Just remember even in the midst of conflict a family discussion is really necessary so that some can put their needs on the table to be recognised. Put your shoulder to the wheel and over the weekend there are plenty of options.

TAURUS April 21 – May 21 This week you are now beginning to feel the solid energy behind the eclipses especially that last one on the 17th. That Capricorn eclipse means you are better off being content with what you have until the green light appears to make all the changes that come in unexpectedly on the back of Uranus. Classically it is expect the unexpected.

GEMINI May 22 - June 23 A discussion about your money supplies turns emotional mid-week and untangling some of it will take some skill. Just remember that the finish line is always crowned with glory, so don’t even think about giving up now! Venus enters warm, playful Leo, and that refers to what you need versus who you really are. Just adapt to circumstances.

CANCER June 24 - July 22 Put some financial decisions on hold as the eclipse patterns indicate that you feel like a slave with rocks in your baskets, which are slung over your shoulder. You may try to put plans you thought were safe but this week the unexpected may see you run into trouble with circumstances beyond your control. This is no time to live in dream worlds!

“Sure,” said the guard, “just lie down on this bench.”

Well if someone was going to help me I wasn’t going to ask any questions.

After he finished and the tie looked good I just had to ask why I had to lie down.

“Well, in my previous job I learned how to tie a tie on other people when they were lying down,” he replied.

“What was your previous job? I asked incredulously.

“I ran a morgue,” was the reply.

with Edgar J. Winter www.astroclairvoyant.com

LEO July 23 – August 22 Just do one step at a time and each morning the sun shines better and better as the Aphrodite planet Venus is in deluxe Leo sign, making you popular.

This means that the week is perfect for skin and beauty treatments, massages and makeovers. There are changes in investment plans and perhaps a few bumps attached to it now.

VIRGO August 23 – September 22 This is one of those weeks where only a few things seem to go right. Relationships with others can be tense as you may misread others signals. However, the weekend sees your social life signalling a shift for the better and by evening time you will want to withdraw to be with your partner in a quiet space. Unexpected benefits arrive for you.

LIBRA September 23 - October 22 This week you are challenged to tackle anything and see if you can launch into a new adventure with a lively optimistic companion. You are putting your best foot forward in an attitude that sheds good light on morning activities. Do not place any output of your labour around the lunchtime area, as this unfortunately turns out to be a downer.

SCORPIO October 23 - November 22 Adverse influences are still around over the weekend as the planet Venus moves into the sign of Leo, and so a partner may not live up to your expectations. In fact, there are people around who are at loose ends and you just do not want to be the organiser of events or situations that bore you to tears. An outing could turn out to be fun.

SAGITTARIUS November 23 – December 22 You are feeling strongly now about an emotional new start with a financial budget. Maybe if you reach for the Moon you will at least get into outer space! An adventure brings a grand pleasure and stirs the chance for you to win the heart of somebody nice. Venus, moving into Leo, indicates financial expenditure on a personal makeover.

CAPRICORN December 23 - January 19 There are windows of opportunity opening up for having satisfying, productive talks.

Even if the first one does not do very well, give it another try later. You may have reason to be delighted by financial developments. Excellent communications over the weekend and a focus on other people puts you face to face to trust your intuition.

AQUARIUS January 20 - February 19 There are soft pockets of warm, caring partnerships and the enthusiasm helps you launch a project. Genial weekend outings for brunch or afternoon tea sees you smiling and ready to welcome the planet Venus bringing you love and better financial values. You may find some more unexpected winnings on your lotto tickets now.

PISCES February 20 - March 20 Plenty of zip and energy is available this week, so there are good times to take bold action and go after what you want. Even if you are spending make sure there are practical considerations as there is no need to be extravagant. Developments at work should be in your favour. Remember over the weekend, don’t extend yourself!
