Musical keepsake pulls on historic heart strings A violin once owned by a heroic woman who helped save five lives during the great Clermont Flood has returned home to Isaac. “Rose was very active in the church and charitable work and was organist at local Church’s and regularly requested for weddings, evidence suggesting she played for an incredible number of weddings.
The beautifully crafted Stainer violin is now a new addition to the Rose Harris Collection at Clermont Historical Museum. Judy Smith nee Rickertt was bequeathed the violin in 1988 when her late Uncle Harry Rickertt passed away.
“Mr Rickertt played Rose’ violin in Duck’s Orchestra, Clermont during the 1940s and 50s.
Isaac Regional Council Mayor Anne Baker said Rose Harris is a Clermont icon, a talented musician and believed to be Australia’s first female saddler.
“He was a firm believer that you had to play an instrument in his words - to keep it musically sweet.” The Rose Harris Collection consists of original photographs, memoirs, keepsakes and samples of her leatherwork.
“She learnt her skills under the strict tutelage of her father in his saddler business William T. Harris’ Saddlery on Drummond Street,” Mayor Baker said.
Rose’ story is featured in the Clermont Historical Centre’s Flood of Memories exhibition, which ends on December 23, 2017.
“On December 27, 1916 Rose earned hero status when she and her father saved five lives during the great Clermont flood. “They were both perched on the roof of the two-storey saddler’s shop watching people being swept past by raging flood waters. “At great personal risk she climbed back into the shop to grab halters and ropes, transformed them into lassoes and threw them to drowning men and women. “Several times, Rose bravely swam out to the victims to ensure their rescue. “The Saddlery business was destroyed in the flood, later to be rebuilt in Capella Street.”
Judith Smith, nee Rickertt, holds the Rose Harris violin.
Clermont Historical Museum Coordinator Deb Alvoen said Judy treasured Rose’s violin, she felt very strongly that it should be returned to the Clermont district where Rose was a much loved and treasured resident. “Thank you Judy for this prized possession, this is the treasure of the Rose Harris collection,” Ms Alvoen said.
The exhibition features local stories, photography and memorabilia from the 1916 Clermont Flood. The centre will be open for the start of the December school holidays. Visitors are welcome Wednesday to Saturday 9am to 3pm up until the closure on Christmas Eve. For more details on Clermont Historical Centre’s opening times please visit www.isaac.qld.gov.au or call Council’s Customer Service Centre available 24 hours a day seven days a week on 1300 ISAACS (1300 472 227).

Game-changing works for hardcourts begin A major lifestyle investment into Isaac's sporting precincts will hit overdrive as works on the $1.71 million program rolls out. Residents of Clermont, Dysart, Middlemount, Nebo and St Lawrence will see visible works within the fortnight. The Isaac Regional Hardcourt Renewal/Repair Program is funded under the 2016-17 Works for Queensland Program. Mayor Anne Baker said the shovel-ready project is a monumental game changer for sporting facilities in Isaac. “Council is excited to see this program come into fruition,” she said. “A total of 24 hardcourts across five towns will benefit from this funding. “Council aims to increase participation of sporting activities at these locations with the promotion of healthy and active lifestyles.”
The Isaac Regional Hardcourt Renewal/Repair Program includes: •
Clermont Sports Precinct’s six tennis courts, two basketball courts and three netball courts.
Deputy Premier and Minister for Infrastructure and Planning Jackie Trad said Works for Queensland is about helping regional councils deliver shovel-ready projects which support and create local jobs.
•
Dysart Town Centre Tennis Courts’ two tennis courts will be converted into car parks and the other two will undergo court surface rehabilitation and new court furniture.
“Right across the State, this program has helped create jobs in our regional areas, boosting local economies while delivering improvements to infrastructure for communities that need them,” Ms Trad said.
•
Dysart Centenary Park’s netball court 2 will have its court surface rehabilitated and court furniture repaired.
•
Middlemount Town Centre Courts’ two netball courts and two basketball courts.

Mayor Baker said the program will also deliver opportunities for local suppliers and contractors to participate in the works program. “Design work for court renewal has begun across all sites,” she said. “The work is planned to be completed by the end of November, weather permitting.”

Exhibition honours life and times of Aussie writer Artworks inspired by the life and times of a prolific Australian poet, critic and short-story writer will be exhibited at Moranbah's Coalface Art Gallery next week.
The 16th annual Bush Poet’s Smoko, to be staged at the Nebo Museum, will be held on Sunday, October 8. Isaac Regional Council Deputy Mayor Geoff Bethel, who will officially open the event, said bush poetry lovers and tellers of tall tales are set for a great day in Nebo. “It’s incredibly amazing how the spoken word in this digital age can continue to be so powerful,” the Division 8 Councillor said.
“In the early 1980s, a group of locals began the process of gathering relics from the past and put them together in a museum collection to celebrate the Shire's Centenary in 1983,” he said. “Originally situated in the old Nebo Police Station, today’s museum is a tribute and reminder of that effort and to the pioneers of the past.” Visiting poets and budding amateur poets are invited to share their poem with the audience.
“I’m so proud we can all get together again and celebrate the great Australian tradition of bush poetry.
Interested poets can RSVP by emailing Nebo.Museum@isaac.qld.gov.au or by calling 4950 5471.
“Nebo is a great place to spin a yarn.
Alternatively, on the day participants may register to perform by giving their details to a volunteer situated at Nebo Museum’s entrance.
“Writing is such a solitary art form and we are proud to be home to where these bush yarns come to life.” A program led by master of ceremonies Dan Lockyer will include members from Moranbah Arts who will recite poems and sing songs plus singer Kate Lockyer will entertain the crowd. The museum will be open to the public free of charge during the event. Cr Bethel said visitors will be able to view its collection of relics, photographs and local stories from Nebo’s diverse history.
The Bush Poet’s Smoko, to be held at Nebo Museum in Reynolds Street, will run from 9am to 1pm on Sunday, October 8. During the event, there will be food and drink available for purchase. For more information visit www.isaac.qld.gov.au, phone 1300 ISAACS (1300 472 227) or visit an Isaac Regional Council office. Isaac... helping to energise the world

Open gym is only available to Madabout Fitness clientele. CLASS DESCRIPTION Gut and Butt Blast Is a target class that focuses on strengthening and toning the nine core divisions of the abdominal plane, simultaneously blasting the three muscles of the buttocks, hamstrings and quadriceps. This will increase fat metabolism at rest and help slim and tone those problematic areas. Although not targeted, general whole body conditioning applies and while challenging, is more than suitable for any fitness level.
MetaPWR MetaPWR is a fast moving circuit, using moves that need strength, speed and power. All MetaPWR workouts use the entire body,involving your upper and lower body and core muscles. Muscle is metabolically active tissue, so the more muscles you work the more calories you burn. The more calories you burn, the more productive your workouts will be and the faster you will lose fat. Circuit training This is a form of body conditioning or resistance training using highintensity/low-intensity aerobic energy. It targets strength building and muscular endurance. An exercise ‘circuit’ is one completion of all prescribed exercises in the program. It is highly enjoyable and recommended to all levels of fitness. Lets lift This program has been designed to target the eight large muscle groups in a 45 minutes whole body workout. This is achieved through the use of barbell and dumbbell weights.
