It is expected that this year’s weekend long event will involve more Australians than ever before, who will choose to reuse at over 15,000 garage sale events throughout Australia. Mayor Anne Baker said the events being hosted in communities in the Isaac region present a fun and social way for Council to encourage residents to recycle and reuse. “Reusing and recycling is good for the community and good for the planet too,” Mayor Baker said. Garage Sale Trail events across Isaac offer a unique opportunity for residents to clear out their pre-loved items, find treasure and have some fun. “It also provides a way meet your neighbours and connect with the community whilst decluttering and making a few extra dollars on your unwanted goods. “Council is really pleased to be involved in this great community initiative for the second year.”

PARTIAL TEMPORARY CLOSURE OF CENTENARY PARK, CLERMONT Isaac Regional Council advises that Centenary Park will be partially closed from:
Tuesday, October 9 Until further notice Part of the park is surrounded by temporary fencing to isolate a roost of up to 4,000 little red flying foxes that have recently arrived. The roost is away from residential backyards, in the trees on the south bank of Hoods Lagoon (corner of Capella and Lime streets).
Council will continue to monitor the flying fox roost and will provide the community with updates once a course of action is established. Earlier this year Council trimmed some trees in the park to try and discourage flying foxes from roosting in the area. We are currently reviewing whether this has had any effect on the current flying fox colony. We are also seeking feedback to help develop a Statement of Management Intent for managing flying foxes.

CR LYN’S COLUMN Well, last Friday the 5th October saw the residents have their last outing/drive/smoko from Monash Lodge. Monday saw the start of the move for some of the residents to their new home at Montcler - either to Blair Athol or Copperfield wing.
Summer has certainly hit with a sledge hammer hasn’t it. One thing about all this is that we don’t have to worry about having too many seasons. You have winter, then you have summer. Makes knowing what to wear so much easier now that it is summer. Dress for the heat I say and you just can’t go wrong. Poor old Axel is starting to feel it and he just loves having a swim in the laggy whenever he can. Can’t say I am impressed with the way he smells afterwards but that’s the beauty of having two showers at home. He has his bath in the one that I don’t use so that’s okay by me. I can’t prattle on too much this week or I won’t have enough room for Mr Bettridge’s poem or some photos. So until next time ... Lyn
Good bye Monash Lodge contributed by Bernie Bettridge Back about 1990 I was asked if I could write something for the opening of Monash Lodge. This was to be a home for the aged, a very welcome addition to our old town of Clermont. The old ones would be able to come here instead of going miles and miles away. The process was going to be over four days with the assistance of Mick Austen and the offer of his truck, however, the move ended up being done with the help from the Work Camp boys and Brent’s Rent truck in two very long days. Big, big thank you to everyone who assisted in any way. I think you could say that the residents are adjusting slowly to the change but it will take some time.
I said to my wife Jeanette, what do you write about a bloody brick building. Why not compare how some of the old pensioners lived, just an old hut made from scraps of iron and bag, to what they would have at Monash Lodge. So I came up with this poem.
Mr Bernie Bettridge one of our locals has written a poem about Monash Lodge which I was honoured to read out on our last Friday at the Lodge. I am including his poem in my column with Mr Bettridge’s approval. His words moved us all and made us think of past residents and loved ones who are no longer with us.
And an old man sitting by that fire with its billys and pots all black,
Yep, we have bats. So far council is isolating them in one area in the park by putting up the fence. As long as we can try and contain them to that area, then with any luck they will leave schools, other public places and your back yards alone. Here’s hoping anyway.
HOW CAN WE COMPARE I see a campfire burning bright outside an old tin shack
A folded bag on a rusty tin he uses for a seat. As he sits there by his lonely camp with his old dog by his feet, He thinks about tomorrow, what will his future be. No one to share his loneliness in these last years of his life, No family there to care for him no fond and loving wife. His home a humble humpy on the bank of Sandy Creek Built from scraps of iron and bag just a place to live and sleep. He had no modern comforts, no fridge or electric light, And some glowing coals in a blackened drum Warmed his camp on those winter nights.
And stored in kerosene tins in the shade of his old tin shack.
Well, Monash Lodge has done its job for about 30 years, but now it looks like her days are done, but I’m sure there will be some who will shed a tear as they see her doors close for the last time.
His corned meat hung in an old tin safe
FOR THE NEW BUILDING
And his butter wrapped in wet rag,
Old Monash Lodge you’ve done your job
And the welcome mat by his huts front door was a torn and tattered bag.
and I’ll say you have done it well.
Yes, I see that old man sitting there,
the tears begin to well,
His water carted in two small drums on a pole across his back
Watching the flames from a burning log And it’s then I think of the difference at Clermont’s Monash lodge. Yes, now we have this Monash Lodge where the old ones come to stay, Where they have each other’s company and are cared for night and day. Their meals set on a table for breakfast lunch and tea, And an air conditioned sitting room where to sit and watch TV.
And as I sit here now with pen in hand As I think of all the old ones who have passed through your tender care, From the staff and all those volunteers. Yes! There was always someone there, To pick up something you may have dropped Or to wheel you in your chair, To set you at the table for breakfast lunch and tea. Oh! Yes I’m sure old Monash Lodge You’ll live on in our memories.
Yes, those old ones live in comfort now with thanks to a gallant few, Those people who have worked so hard to make it all come true.

MONASH LODGE PRESIDENT’S REPORT 2017/2018 contributed by Christine Marteene Where has 2018 disappeared to? It seems not that long ago that we were completing the 201617 year and celebrating the success that is the new bus. We continue to struggle to get the committee together as regularly as we would like but we have managed to get together enough to maintain our role in Monash Lodge. In the coming year that role will undertake a significant change as the residents move from the existing building to the new facility at the hospital. We will move from a committee who has had to fund raise for maintenance and building expenses, to one who can concentrate on supplying a few luxury items to enhance our seniors lives as well as maintain the community bus. The new Monash Lodge at the hospital has come together relatively quickly and appears to be very nice building. The rooms are well fitted out and quite large laying to rest the fears of some that the residents might be having to downsize personal living space. From my point of view, I have found the building very big. I would like to take this chance to thank the committee, the hospital staff and the architects for their efforts in trying to reduce the residents’ levels of worry. This has been achieved by a pretty good level of allowed input from all parties and information sessions for the residents. Time will tell if we have been successful, but we have received some feedback already that most of the residents are happy with their new surrounds.
POSITIONS VACANT Link Mining Services are currently seeking experienced casual Equipment Operators for approximately 6 months’ work, working a Monday to Friday, day/afternoon shift roster, at the Blair Athol Coal Mine. Works commencing early December 2018. Requirements: • RII Competencies • Demonstrated experience operating heavy mobile equipment, ideally within a mining environment • Coal Board Medical, or willing to obtain • Standard 11
Please forward your resume to reception@linkmining.com.au or phone Sarah on 0484 292 638.
As those who still have some fears, move in and utilise the new building we can only hope that they come to see the benefits that it might offer. I hope for the future that the community is able to get the number of beds increased to cater for the people who don’t wish to leave the area. As I have stated previously, the role of the committee will now change. We have decisions to make about what that role will be and what the committee will look like in the coming years, how we interact with Queensland Health and what are the ownership guidelines for any equipment that we might raise funds for. We also say goodbye to the old Monash that has served us so well over the last 28 so years. It will be a decision for council and the community what they want to do with the building. Personally, I hope that it is able to be utilised in some way for the benefit of the town and area. To the committee, I would like to pass on my thanks for your time and support in what has been a trying year. I would like to thank Frances for her efforts in coming with me to the Chant meetings. To Chris, I would like to thank you for your support and dedication as the treasurer. Chris will be stepping down from this position as she moves on to a new part of her life. I wish her and Dan all the best for their next adventure. You will be sorely missed. I have enjoyed my time as president and take this opportunity to wish the new committee all the best for the coming year.

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.
LET’S 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. This class is suitable for all fitness levels. CIRCUIT TRAINING: this is a form of body conditioning or resistance training using high-intensity/low-intensity aerobic energy. It targets strength building and muscular endurance. An exercise ‘circuit’ is one completion of all prescribed exercises in the program.
