The baked potato had all the ingredients Matilda loves including beef Bolognese, cheese, slaw, sour cream & corn chips. Sharon, from Studio E’lan, is also donating her time to perform the all important haircut, with Matilda now scrolling through the internet for stylish short hairdos – the first time in her short life she has not had long hair. Testament to Matilda’s dedication to the cause, many of her friends think she is mad to cut off her hair but will cheer her on from the sidelines.

focus

For almost a decade Rod Bax called the Limestone Coast home. As an art teacher at Naracoorte High School, Rod developed a lifelong connection to the region and it also saw him develop a passion for the natural world in his art. “The South East period established a devotion to the recording of the natural world and developed a sense of awareness for preservation and conservation of the natural environment and places like Bool Lagoon have been an inspiration since the late 70s,” Rod said. “We had two more children in that time and that cemented a sense of belonging to the area.”

It is Rod’s friendship with Judy Murdoch, who was Naracoorte High School’s deputy principal at the time of Rod’s teaching tenure, that has seen Rod called on for this and previous community art projects. “She has asked me on a number of occasions to assist in some artistic manner with projects at the Sheep’s Back Museum,” Rod said. With community art, both in Naracoorte and other communities in South Australia, being a strong focus of Rod’s artistic career. “We had a

“…places like Bool Lagoon have been an inspiration since the late 70s… mural group in Naracoorte which I coordinated in the 70s and 80s, most of which have been removed or the building demolished. I also have been involved in community art activity at the Marion Railway station both the old and the newly completed one.” This latest mural is part of an ongoing project at the museum, with fellow grant recipient Wayan Dudug having also been part of the revamped children’s section of the museum.

“Judy (Murdoch) was keen to have a more artistic approach to the area and so she asked me to design something and we have been working on it for 18 months,” Rod said. “I have called on other artists to be involved in the project.” That sees Adelaide based artist David Archer producing an interactive exhibit in his humorous and witty answer in what may look like something from Penny Arcade. David

“…I started taking what I did more seriously and started to have regular exhibitions…” is a maker of ingenious automata, animatronics and devices of all kinds. His career spans more than 25 years from childhood inventor, boilermaker, welder, ceramic and visual artist. Annabel Hume has also been integral to the project, working with local high school and primary students to produce a collection of bird species in paper mache and Wayan (Dudug) has produced three beautiful sculptures at the entrance of the children’s museum, as well as running workshops at the high school to produce more than 20 small relief carvings of marine fossils that will form another part of the exhibit. And while Rod has been flat strap coordinating this mammoth project, he also has the verandah floor mural on his to-do list. “It is to give a sense of fun to the learning situation,” Rod said. “The mural will depict local species, local history and identify some of the museum collection. It is great that we have had this support from the council in supporting this wonderful community asset.” The building that houses the children’s museum was once the Kybybolite tennis clubrooms and

“…the notion of art and being creative was always encouraged…”

reinventing the space has been a labour of love for a loyal band of volunteers, who has assisted in the reflooring, painting and fitting out of the space. “There is still a lot of work to do and funds to raise to enable an interactive hands-on museum experience,” Rod said. “We hope to purchase a digital interactive table to encourage a developing database of the current collection and encourage students to participate and contribute with digital game , information and research topics that can be accessed online, as well as hands on in the museum.” A digital projector is also on the wish list. And Rod has also tapped into the talents of old scholars to enhance the project. “I have encouraged a local who is currently working as an animator and illustrator to produce some interesting animations to enhance our bird species exhibit with animated images,” he said. And his plans for the children’s museum don’t stop there. CONT. OPP. PAGE

FROM OPP. PAGE “We plan to alternate exhibits on a thematic basis and will continue to try and involve the schools as much as we can to encourage a sense of awareness and the importance of preserving local history within our student community,” Rod said. “The paper mache birds and the fossil sculptures are a good beginning.” Wayan’s Community Art Fund grant, also for $5000, will see him produce a significant hand-carved sculpture depicting marine fossils of the Limestone Coast using stone from a local quarry for display in the town centre, providing a link to encourage visitors to head to the museum to see more of Wayan’s work and that of the students with whom he worked. Needless to say, little did Rod know when he arrived in Naracoorte in 1978 as a fresh faced art teacher that he would still be contributing to the community some four decades on, having also spent nine years at Adelaide’s St Peter’s College and 20 years at Westminster School, retiring from teaching in 1996. “I was always happy with the idea that I could balance a teaching career and still maintain a presence in the art world,” Rod said. “Since retirement I have probably worked more on my painting in the past four years than I did in the previous 10 and so this is encouraging as I don’t miss teaching one bit and think more and more of how I might solve another artistic problem. Retirement has given more time to travel and even then it’s more about collecting ideas for painting.” For Rod, art has been a part of his world since he weas very young – it was as if he was destined to pick up a paintbrush. “We always had paintings at home,” Rod said. “My grandmother was quite an accomplished artist, creating impressionistic, romantic works, probably from home tutors

and my mother was a creative sort - dressmaking, flower arranging, anything crafty. I was quite ill as a child and missed a lot of schooling and so I made puppets, drew a lot, mainly fantasy battles and copied images from ten shilling art books of the Great Masters and those Walter Foster How To Draw books that my mother had purchased. Basically the notion of art and being creative was always encouraged.”

While teaching gave Rod a steady income, it also gave him a chance to emulate his early mentors, who fostered his love of art during his schooling years. “I had some great art teachers as a student at Brighton High school,” Rod said. They included Trevor Clare, who was a great practitioner, Brian Lees, who became a principal education officer in the department, Lee Zueff, who had a great design sense and Joan Brown, who was a compassionate creative thinker. “I found out years later from her (Joan Brown’s) son, after her death, that she had been following my journey and I was sorry that I had never tried to thank her for what she had done for me,” Rod said. He was also grateful for the insight on assessment provided by Lee Zueff. “She confided in me one time about a result for a design project that although I failed it was still the best work produced,” Rod said. “She said don’t worry about the grade it is just

“...I was sorry that I had never tried to thank her for what she had done for me...”

“He used to come down and stay at Naracoorte and showed me a way of seeing the landscape,” Rod said. “His images of Bool Lagoon and his approach to teaching art with the importance of knowing your medium mixed with an emotional and expressive connection to the subject have stayed with me.” As has the work of 19th century French artist Edgar Degas – the most influential of the many artist whose work Rod (pictured above) has always admired.

the assessment criteria - keep doing what you are doing.” And he did, graduating from the SA School of Art, entering art competitions and eventually showing his work at the late Barry Newton’s Gallery – the scene of his real positive response to his work. “I started taking what I did more seriously and started to have regular exhibitions,” he said. Tom Gleghorn was another strong influence on Rod’s development, as an artist and teacher.

n o ti ti e p m co g n ci n da in w Lobster steals the sho There wasn’t the razzle dazzle of sequins, feathers and high heels. There was no eye watering fundraising target by the stars or crowds admiring, laughing at and cheering their favourite star on. There was no tango, hip hop and Cha Cha to master but there was dancing and a Judge’s Award and People’s Choice Award saw the seven entrants in Streaming with the Stars, the online replacement for the major Stand Like Stone Foundation fundraiser Swinging With the Stars, honoured for taking the time to learn the jive and post a video online. The entrants danced with kids, partners, animals and in one instance a lobster – all in the name of having fun and ensuring the spirit of the popular event, that was first held in 2008, lived on. Two of the 2020 entrants were actually set to be part of the 2020 gala event at The Barn, with both Caroline Barr, who performed with her cat, and Randall Jones, who donned a tutu for his jive entry, keen to see the event continue in whatever form possible. Former entrants also brushed off their dancing skills with 2012 star Donna Jaeschke and 2018 star Steve Duldig entering the revamped 2020 competition. Donna using the region’s iconic pine forests as her backdrop, performing with sister Ashlea Edwards, while Steve’s kids Pacey and

Edie doubled as his dancing partners. Lauren Fox also enlisted her son Hugo to put together her jive – Lauren being a veteran of the Swinging with the Stars competition as one of the ‘professional’ dance partners over the years.

“...to be honest being a mayor the past few months has been some hard yards and it was great to do something for the community that was just about having a good time and a laugh...” Alison Nunan Stand Like Stone Foundation CEO Anne Kerr and her husband Pete got into the spirit, while Robe Mayor Alison Nunan, who was hoping her local government colleagues from across the region might also take up the challenge, added to her degree of difficulty by jiving on a pontoon, where ending up in the drink was an ever present danger. Spoiler alert – she didn’t.

The awards presentation was held on Saturday night, live streamed by Interact Limestone Coast with two of the three judges, Liz Rymill and Ben Hood, running through the seven entries. Hype Dance’s Kim Cella, who has been the teacher and choreographer for the past few Swinging with the Stars events, was the third judge, having already put together a video for the community to work through and learn the jive themselves. “This time every year we’d be gearing up to head out to The Barn,” Ben said, as both he and Liz reminisced about their experience, learning the moves, forging friendships with the other contestants and stepping outside their comfort zone for a wonderful cause. In the end, it was the Robe Mayor who took out the People’s Choice Award, securing almost half the 300-plus votes cast for the award. “For me, it was a bit of fun,” Alison Nunan said. “To be honest being a mayor the past few months has been some hard yards and it was great to do something for the community that was just about having a good time and a laugh. Stand Like Stone Foundation

“...we did try really hard to get the steps right and then we were just crossing our ﬁngers...” Randall Jones

“...to raise money for that I am happy to go and make a fool of myself..” Randall Jones is such a great organisation and do so much good work in the community through their grants and I figured it would give people a giggle and wouldn’t kill me.” The Judge’s Award went to Port MacDonnell’s Randall Jones, who is now hopeful of competing in 2021 for the mirror ball trophy and also, more importantly to raise as much money as possible for the foundation. “The main aim for me was just to keep the event going, to keep the whole thing alive even though it stopped for this year” Randall said. Finding a volunteer from within the family was tough, with Randall’s two oldest daughters not too keen to be part of their dad’s performance. “Luckily the youngest one is dancing all the time and she was happy to help.” Randall was quietly confident his online routine had got the basics of the jive right but certainly couldn’t have predicted his Judge’s Award victory. “We did try really hard to get the steps right and then we were just crossing our fingers,” he said. “It was

all a bit of fun and now I can look to step it up for 2021. I just want to carry on the good work of people like Grant Fensom, who have raised money for the Steve Noble Sub Fund. “To raise money for that I am happy to go and make a fool of myself.” Above (top) - Robe Mayor Alison Nunan in action.

Border opening a godsend for tourism operators The June Long Weekend was the first time many South Australians had left their homes, hit the road and looked to visit other parts of the State, after weeks of being basically on house arrest, and the signs were good. Last Friday’s announcement that South Australia would lift its border restrictions on July 20 will only add to the cautious optimism of tourism operators, recreation vehicle industry operators and small businesses in regional towns that feed off the tourism dollar. Anecdotally, the Limestone Coast enjoyed increased visitor numbers, with cellar doors at socially distanced capacity most of the weekend, and cafes and restaurants also enjoying strong patronage, from locals and visitors alike. Given no interstate visitors could make the trek, in a region that is reliant on tourism traffic from Victoria, the signs were good without being outstanding. The Mount Gambier Visitor Centre helped out more than 200 visitors, evenly split between locals looking

to visit an untapped treasure in this region and visitors from both Adelaide and regional SA. Robe also enjoyed a tourism boost, after spending Easter and other peak times in recent weeks basically closed for business. “It was a relief to see visitors out and about,” Robe Mayor Alison said. “You could see the difference in the faces of the locals who need these visitors to keep their businesses going.” The seaside town was not at full capacity but was up 45 per cent from the same weekend in 2019, showing people want to get out and about and explore the State. “It was just good to see the town busy,” Mayor Nunan said. “And people were really happy with how everyone behaved and how they respected the current protocols, people definitely have their heads around what they have to do.” The return of Victorian visitors, many of whom own holiday homes in Robe, after July 20 should also boost

the tourism reliant town. “Tourism is in Robe’s DNA and when people couldn’t come to visit, the town did feel a bit down in the mouth,” Mayor Nunan said, “It is not just about the economics, it is like we need to see visitors coming here and enjoying themselves.” With overseas holidays off the radar for the foreseeable future, people heading off in recreational vehicles also looks set to rise and Jayco Mount Gambier’s Peter Pignotti (pictured right) said speaking to dealers around Australia, it does look like the caravanning and camping sector could be set to gradually bounce back. “March and April were really quiet for us and that’s supposed to be our busy time,” Peter said. “We are now going into June which is our quiet time but we have had people coming and looking at vans and it does look like it might be starting to pick up and starting to look positive.” The boost in numbers has come significantly from first time buyers,

which is good news for the industry going forward, as more and more people discover the fun of caravanning and camping for weekend getaways or longer holidays. Peter was also sweating on the opening of the borders, with important industry expos and shows in Victoria a key part of his business model, with Jayco Mount Gambier also having a strong Victorian based clientele. Peter also said it was somewhat of an unknown to see how quickly people renewed their usual travel

behaviour. “We do have to be aware that people might take a while to feel comfortable to travel but the signs are certainly more positive than they were a few weeks ago.”

Libraries welcome back face to face service The joy of browsing for your next read as returned as the Glenelg Libraries reopened the doors this week. From Monday, library branches in Casterton, Heywood and Portland are open for the public after 13 weeks of temporary closure. In line with Victorian State Government advice, branches will operate with strict hygiene and social distancing requirements which include: • A maximum of 20 people allowed in a Library branch at any one time; • Visits restricted to one hour maximum; • Use of hand sanitiser upon entry; • Maintaining a minimum 1.5m physical distance from other people and staff at all times; • Visitors will be required to provide their name and phone number for possible contact tracing; • Limitations on the number of public computers available for use; • Public computer access restricted to a 30 minute maximum, per person, per day. Library and information services manager Yvette Parker thanked members for their patience and cooperation throughout the temporary

closure period. “We thank all of our loyal members for their understanding over the past three months,” she said.”The closure period has not been easy for our community, which has reinforced how much of a vital role our libraries play. To ensure our library branches remain safe for all users, we have implemented a number of protocols such as limiting the number of visitors and the duration of visit, ensuring sanitisation upon entry and exit and the quarantining of returned items for at least 72 hours. “We urge anyone experiencing symptoms fever, cough, shortness of breath, sore throat or loss of smell to please avoiding isiting our library branches where possible. To minimise the time visitors spend in branches, we also encourage members to utilise the Click and Collect system and reserve

Australian and international video artists are invited to apply for a chance to win a grand prize of $3000 cash. Presented by The Riddoch and Main Corner Complex, the International Limestone Coast Video Art Festival is a biennial event that aims to celebrate the creation of video art and places emphasis on innovative and ground breaking artworks. Following on from the successful inaugural festival held in 2018, the 2020 event is set to be held from November 6 to December 6 with the theme ‘video art during and after the pandemic’. "We invite Australian and international video artists to send us video works that convey how

the global COVID-19 pandemic is affecting their lives and practice," Riddoch Art Gallery director Melentie Pandilovski said. “With many artists around the planet in lock-down or quarantine, facing the physical, psychological, and emotional effects they are undoubtedly coming up with creative solutions to the concerns and challenges caused by the COVID-19, we therefore invite you to share your video art stories to address these issues. “Many of these stories will be addressing various anxieties, worries, and economic strains, however there are also optimistic stories, filled with humour, contemplation, solidarity, community mindfulness, compassion, and cheerfulness.” Submission entry is free, and may include one work per artist or group of artists. Submitted works can be up to eight minutes long and must be produced after January 1 this year. Entries are open now and close on August 1. The festival program will include an exhibition, conference, screenings, and workshops. “We anticipate the festival will become a truly shared artistic space and international story-telling of solidarity and community wellbeing,” Dr Pandilovski said.

Bringing some colour to the community

Lemon coconut slice

In times like these, we could all use a little brightening, something that reflects our come-together community spirit and makes us smile and that’s just what some of the gang at Grange Residential Care Service have done. Muriel Bailey, Dot Williams and Ada Robinson (all pictured) along with fellow artists Emma Hunt, Di Ryan, Marlene Clayton and Margory Meyer shared their colourful masterpieces with us. Karen McKenzie Art created this great, all ages activity to the Greater Hamilton community throughout the challenging isolation period. Check out Karen’s facebook page for more inspiring fun, colouring activities.

1/4 cup flaked coconut, toasted FILLING 2/3 cup fresh lemon juice 1/2 cup raw caster sugar 5 tablespoons custard powder 4 eggs 800ml light coconut cream 1 tablespoon finely grated lemon rind

Method Preheat the oven 180C/160C fan forced. Grease the base and sides of a shallow 20 x 30cm slab pan. Line with baking paper, allowing it to extend over the 2 long sides. Place the flour, seeds and desiccated coconut in a food processor. Process until almost finely ground. Add the sugar, coconut oil, eggs, vanilla extract and baking powder. Process, scraping down the side occassionally, until the mixture sticks together. Use the back of a wet spoon to press the mixture evenly into the prepared pan. Prick the base with a fork. Bake for 10-15 minutes or until golden. Remove from the oven and set aside to cool. For the filling, whisk the lemon juice, sugar and custard powder in a saucepan over low heat until smooth. Whisk in eggs, coconut cream and lemon rind until smooth. Continue whisking over medium-low heat until the mixture just comes to the boil and thickens. Pour the mixture over the base, spreading evenly. Place in the fridge to chill overnight. Remove the slice from the pan. Top with lemon slices, if you like. Cut into 20 pieces and scatter with toasted coconut.

Youth driver program back on the road The District Council of Grant’s popular Youth on Wheels is headed back to the road after a short term hiatus of the program as a result of recent restrictions. New participants are encouraged to apply for the program so the roster can be fully utilised and the car can be busily out and about on the road helping young people obtain their driving hours. To protect both participants and volunteers, a ‘return to operations’ plan has been put in place, which includes hygiene and cleaning protocols as well as contact tracing mechanisms. Funded and managed by the District Council of Grant, Youth on Wheels started its journey as Geared 2 Drive in 2013. Over the past seven years it has grown to become a standalone youth driver mentor program, tailored specifically for youth living in the District Council of Grant or City of Mount Gambier areas. Councils acknowledges the ongoing support of Barry Maney Ford throughout the tenure of the program. Early this year, the South East Unique and Classic Car Club saw synergies between the club’s values and community spirit and the Youth on Wheels program and subsequently

Small business write-off set to continue The Federal Government continues to back small business with the announcement that it will extend the $150,000 instant asset write-off for six months to December 31. Local businesses with annual turnover of less than $500 million will be able to take advantage of this extended timeframe to invest in assets to support their business as the economy reopens and coronavirus health restrictions

continue to be eased. These measures will support over 3.5 million businesses nationally, employing more than 9.7 million employees. They are designed to support businesses sticking with investment they had planned, and encourage business to bring investment forward to support economic growth over the near term. The instant asset write-off also helps to improve cash flow for

businesses by bringing forward tax deductions for eligible expenditure. The threshold applies on a per asset basis, so eligible businesses can immediately write-off multiple assets provided each costs less than $150,000. Member for Barker Tony Pasin (pictured) said the extension was great news for local businesses, giving them additional time to acquire and install assets, as they will now

have until the end of the year. “Assets can be new or second hand and could include for example a truck for a delivery business or a tractor for a farming business,” Mr Pasin said. “Hardworking Australian businesses can rest assured that the Federal Government will do all that is necessary to support them to bounce back stronger and get to the other side of this crisis. Local business are the lifeblood of our economy and I

want to do everything I can to assist them through this difficult time.”

NEW > BEAUTIFUL LIGHT-FILLED FAMILY SIZED HOME

This solid stone home is ¾ renovated and is now ready for someone to have a bit of fun to finish it off! The property is conveniently located just a short walk to schools and the Grantville Court Shopping Centre. Inside the home offers a lovely kitchen with electric cooking, timber benchtops and pantry whilst the open plan lounge/dining space is complete with brand new flooring, gas heating and ceiling fan. The three bedrooms have all recently had new carpet, new blinds and new light fittings installed. The almost completely renovated bathroom has new tiles, new tap fittings, new bath and is now just in need of a new vanity and some finishing off and you will have a lovely new room. The separate laundry has been recently upgraded, whilst the w/c just needs a new toilet to be installed, and you’ll be “good to go”. A great sized block, the current shed could do with some TLC, or you have heaps of space to install the shed of your dreams (STCA).

Sitting on an elevated allotment is this beautifully presented brick & tile home. The open plan lounge and dining area create a large family space, complete with s/c air con and heating. The galley-style kitchen offers electric cooking, a recently updated oven/griller & dishwasher whilst also looking over the rear undercover patio area. If three large bedrooms (which all include BIR’s) are not quite enough, then you will also find the additional room you’re after in the retreat separate to the main house, which also can be utilised as a fourth bedroom with it’s own ensuite. This well-maintained home is complete with a fully renovated bathroom in modern and neutral tones, with a separate bath and shower, plus a laundry with external access. In the private and secure backyard, you’ll find the undercover pergola equipped with zip-track blinds, plus additional space for storage in the garden shed and studio.

I’ve picked up this week that I have a bit too much time on my hands. I’m basing this on the things I’m occupying my time, and particularly my mind, with. Let me explain it to you. Let me start by saying I like Tim Tams. They are a timeless Australian classic. I’m not trying to pick a fight with the Tim Tam people because I certainly don’t want to get put on the banned list. But there’s always been something that bothers me about them. There are eleven in a packet! Outrageous, right?! What do you mean you don’t see the problem? Let me explain. Eleven is a prime number. I said a prime number. I bet you wish you’d listened in Year 6 Maths now. A prime number is a number that is only divisible by itself and one. The only numbers that divide into eleven are itself (eleven –

keep up) and one. That means it’s a prime number. The number twelve is divisible by itself (12), one, two, three, four, and six. That means it’s not prime. The problem with there being a prime number of Tim Tams is that you’re often sharing a packet with other people. Unless there are eleven of you and you each have one Tim Tam, someone is going to get more of the Tim Tams. If there are four people, three people get three Tim Tams, and one poor person only gets two. Someone leaves the Tim Tam party feeling jipped. If there are five people, four get two Tim Tams, and one person eats three and has their four mates bitching about them until the next time they share a pack of Tim Tams. It’s not much better if you expand it to two packets of Tim Tams. While twenty two is not a prime number (read the explanation above if you’ve already forgotten), it doesn’t really help unless there are eleven people getting two Tim Tams each. When was the last time you had a gathering of eleven people (several months ago if you’ve been following the rules, I’d hope.) If Arnotts had have originally made Tim Tams in packets of 12, they really could have improved this situation

considerably. Twelve people? One each. Six people? Two each. Four people? Three each. Three people? Four each. Two people? Those lucky buggers get six each. To be honest that might be overdoing things a little bit. But there is a good chance you’re going to be able to ensure everyone gets the same number of Tim Tams. So that’s all bothered me enough. I’ve had minor problems with some of the weird Tim Tam flavours over the years, but there have been enough good ones that I’m willing to overlook the bad ones. This week I picked up a pack of delicious sounding Gisborne Orange and Dark Chocolate Tim Tams. I’m a fan of the combination of chocolate and orange. To be honest, any fruit is only worth eating in combination with chocolate. It wasn’t until after getting my Tim Tams home that I noticed an announcement on the packaging of there being nine biscuits in the packet. Nine!? While numerically this is better as it’s not a prime number and can be conveniently divided evenly between three people, nine Tim Tams isn’t great value for money for the two dollars fifty I paid. I could have gotten eleven traditional Tim Tams for the same money! The orange choc Tim Tams were delicious but the realisation that I really should have been getting another two biscuits left a nasty taste in my mouth. A little search on the Arnotts website revealed that you’ve got to have a close look at the packaging to see what you’re getting. Original and Dark Chocolate Tim Tams come with eleven biscuits, whereas White, Double Coat, Choc Mint, Chewy Caramel, Pickles and Icecream and the fancy new Crafted Collection (the aforementioned Gisborne Choc Orange, Murray River Salted Caramel and Sunshine Coast Strawberries and Cream) all have nine biscuits per packet. But Arnotts have one more insult to throw at us.This is the sort of time I have on my hands.The classic Tim Tams weigh in at 18.3 grams per biscuit. The new Crafted Collection are only 17.8 grams per biscuit! I can’t believe it either! So even if there were eleven in a packet, we’d all still be getting short-changed 5.5 grams of Tim Tam across the packet. Surely the consumer watchdog people should be all over this one, right? If you’re struggling to work out whether this is this is my usual article with a weak premise or a Maths lesson, you should exxxxxxxxmail me at robbietansel@gmail.com and we’ll try to work it out together.

Autocare Mount Gambier has onsite a mainline AWD Dynamometer. We believe the dyno is an essential tool when vehicle remapping. We can measure force, moment of force (torque), or power, plus other engine vitals. A vehicle is driven onto the dyno via ramps & strapped down. It is then driven on the dyno, allowing us to replicate road driving conditions at different speeds, RPMs, elevations & loads. The dyno’s computer will then record all the vitals such as power & torque, plus other important engine readings like air & fuel mixtures & turbo boost pressure, as the vehicle is run on the dyno. It is an important piece to the puzzle when it comes to tuning a vehicle properly.

Million dollar makeover for tourist park Tatiara District Council took over the management of the Bordertown Caravan Park in March this year and the facility is now set for a $1.4million dollar makeover. A $700,000 Federal Government grant as part of the Building Better Regions Fund was announced earlier this month, with the council set to foot the rest of the bill for the much needed redevelopment. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Accommodation infrastructure at the park has become quite dated over the years and many of the existing cabins no longer meet todayâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s visitor standards â&#x20AC;&#x153;Tatiara District Council CEO Anne Champness said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The grant will help us transform the park with new, comfortable and attractive visitor accommodation. We will remove outdated cabins and concrete huts and replace them with eight modern cabins in landscaped settings.â&#x20AC;? Council was hopeful the revamp of the tourism facility would boost the regionâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s bottom line. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The improved visitor accommodation will help maximise the parkâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s potential to attract visitors to the Tatiara and keep them for a little longer,â&#x20AC;? Ms Champness said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The project will provide economic benefit to the district during construction but also from increased visitation and visitor spend upon its completion.â&#x20AC;? Crunching the numbers is always somewhat of an unknown but based on traditional economic impact modelling, the $1.4million dollar injection of funds could generate 17 full time equivalent jobs during construction and a further eight as part of the ongoing operation of the holiday park. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We expect that there will be significant opportunity for local businesses and contractors to be involved throughout all aspects of the project,â&#x20AC;? Ms Champness said, as council looks to follow the usual strict tender process. With visitation around regional Australia being pushed by the powers-that-be across all levels of government, the overhaul of the Bordertown Caravan Park could not be better timed for the Tatiara community. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The project aims to position the Bordertown Caravan Park as an attractive stop-over point for people travelling between Melbourne and Adelaide,â&#x20AC;? Ms Champness said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It will create modern and comfortable accommodation options that meet the changing demands and expectations of the self-drive visitor sector. New cabins, with different occupancy options and including an all-abilities-access option, will increase overall park capacity and visitor overnight stays, attract new visitors and grow awareness of the Tatiara as a visitor destination. This in turn will see increased spend in our towns, district and the Limestone Coast region.â&#x20AC;? And the overhaul of the accommodation will also have a much needed spin-off outside of peak tourism times. â&#x20AC;&#x153;While primarily visitor accommodation, the cabins also provide back-up to help ease our housing challenge,â&#x20AC;? Ms Champness said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The Tatiara is a prosperous and innovative district, boasting a diverse agricultural base and strong businesses and industry, but our housing stock

has not kept pace with our growing economy and labour needs, and we are experiencing shortages in rental accommodation. The new cabins can provide an alternative, short-term option for new residents to our district while they find their future home.â&#x20AC;? Member for Barker Tony Pasin was thrilled to be able to announce the latest windfall for the Tatiara region. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The development of the Bordertown Caravan Park will provide substantial economic and community benefit, integral to the future sustainability of the township,â&#x20AC;? Mr Pasin said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s projects like this that will transform communities and help ensure our productive and vibrant region remains strong, resilient and prosperous in the long term. In addition to the jobs created during construction and operation, the development will seek to deliver an increase in the number of visitor nights and expenditure in Bordertown and the region and improve the districtâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s capacity to host and attract events.â&#x20AC;?

s a e s h g i h e h t n o loving life

It was in 2017 that Courtney Jolley started living her dream – working on a cruise ship – and she couldn’t be happier, having just returned from an eight month stint on Royal Caribbean Cruise’s second largest ship – the Quantum class Ovation of the Seas. Courtney’s inaugural stint with Royal Caribbean saw her cruising around Cuba, the Bahamas, Mexico and Brazil. On her latest adventure, she not only got to play tourist in Canada, Alaska, Hawaii, New Zealand and even Australia, she was working with a bigger cast. “It was great to meet new people,” Courtney said. Having been part of a 10 person cast in her previous gigs, her latest cruise was her part of a 22 strong cast. “Everything was bigger, the ship was bigger, the cast was bigger, the rehearsal period was longer and there was more material ad choreography to learn,” she said. It also saw Courtney secure understudy duties, both the dance position and the vocalist position, for the main role in the ship’s musical and when the lead hurt her back and

“...it puts the biggest smile on their faces because they love it so much…” was sidelined before the ship had even set sail, Courtney got her chance to headline a performance. “I had a few days to make sure I had completely learned the role,” Courtney said. “The first time I performed it was in front of the production casting director at the Royal Caribbean Studios in Miami.” Courtney enjoyed being part of The Beautiful Dream production – the ship’s main musical production – which centred on a man, with two children, who is visited by his departed soulmate in a very special dream. She returns to help him rediscover his passion for life and his will to love again. This is the biggest adventure of his life, the confrontation of his secret fears and the dream of his eventual awakening. “It was beautiful story of hope and I loved getting the opportunity to play the character of Mother,” Courtney said.

Then there was the Vegas-style show – Live Love Legs - a collection of incredible aerial acrobatics, nextgen choreography and superb vocal performances that come straight from the Broadway stage. “It was a real showgirl theatre show with lots of bling and feathers,” Courtney said. “You certainly work your butt off not just to be fit but to make sure you are in good shape because you are not wearing much. What we did wear was beautiful and it was by the same designer who used to do the Victoria’s Secret wings.” There is also a welcome aboard show and farewell show for the cast to create. Courtney also loves the on board dance lessons conducted by the cast’s dancers. “…you certainly work your butt oﬀ not just to be ﬁt but to make sure you are in good shape because you are not wearing much…”

“We teach the Cha Cha and jive and the older passengers, in particular, love it,” Courtney said. “It puts the biggest smile on their faces because they love it so much.” Courtney boarded the ship in Canada where the cast went through handover. “We were shown the ropes and then we were off,” Courtney said. There was a learning curve for the new cast, with more sets and props and a moving stage to contend with the cast spending a week getting their ducks in a row. Courtney knows just how lucky she is, not just to be working in a career she loves but also seeing the world. “I have always lived by the saying if you are doing something you love you will never work a day in your life,” Courtney said. “When we were in Alaska and sailing around the glaciers and getting off the ship and going to hikes and whale watching and the stunning scenery, you just know how lucky you are.” From Alaska, the ship headed to Vancouver and then headed for Hawaii, with Courtney visiting many of the main islands. Then came another cruise highlight for the 21 year old dancer, who celebrated her 21st on board the ship. “Sailing into Sydney Harbour and seeing the bridge was amazing, really special,” Courtney said, as she savoured being a tourist in what equates to her own backyard. New Zealand and the South Pacific Islands were next on the cruise itinerary before the cruise was cut a little short – Courtney one of the lucky cruise ship workers who managed to port in her own country and get home before the real extent of the coronavirus shutdown took hold, unlike fellow former local dancers Michaela Pace and Jayden Prelc. “We got back the night before they closed the borders,” Courtney said. “I was so lucky – not only that I got off but that it was basically at the end of

“…I can’t imagine ever getting tired of life on the cruise ships…”

my contract as well.” So after mum Mandy picked her up to bring her back to Mount Gambier, the duo self isolated for 14 days and then everything was back to normal. With so much uncertainty surrounding international travel and the cruise ship industry, Courtney’s immediate plans will see her return to Adelaide once dance classes resume in full force. “I have made so many great connections in Adelaide and I’m looking forward to getting back into teaching,” Courtney said. “I teach at a couple of schools, including working at MJ Dance with Matt Cram.” Courtney has also assisted with local MJ Dance Studio classes while she has been home. She is set to branch out, though, and is in the throes of securing her Pilates qualifications and will work at CYFitness, in Norwood, through connections she has made over her dancing journey, with owners Angela and Cyriaque, who have a strong history in dance, as well as fitness and Pilates. While Courtney is still committed to pursuing life as a cruise ship performer, she does have a real passion for teaching and has her sights set on opening her own studio one day. “I can’t imagine ever getting tired of life on the cruise ships,” Courtney said. “So at the moment I will stay on my toes, keep fit, keep taking dance classes online and then see what happens. Everything is up in the air and I have to take it day by day.” From left - Courtney Jolley ready to play the lead in the cruise ship’s musical The Beautiful Dream; Courtney in action on stage; Courtney dressed as Ariana Grande for her on board 21st birthday celebrations & Courtney the tourist.

Creating stunning entrance ways, interpretative signage, foreshore redevelopment, playground upgrades and community facility makeovers are all on the agenda of Limestone Coast councils following welcome windfalls from the newly established Local Road and Community Infrastructure Program and the fast tracking of the latest round of Financial Assistance Grants, to help stimulate local economic growth. The seven Limestone Coast councils earned a share of almost $3,500,000 from the new stimulus program, with an additional just over $8million in the fast tracked Financial Assistance Grants. Robe Mayor Alison Nunan echoed the sentiments of most local government officials when musing how to spend the much needed cash injection. “We’ve got a list as long as your arm,” Mayor Nunan said. One of the earmarked projects will see Robe inundated with signage – not just creating significant entrance signage and landscaping, which has been on the wishlist for many years, but also wayfinding signage to make Robe an even easier seaside getaway to navigate. “We have wanted to work on signage around the town, not just pointing out where anything of significance is but also telling the stories of landmarks and areas along our coastline,” Mayor Nunan said. Robe has also never really had stand out entrance ways and signposting the popular tourist destination is another high ranking project to be funded. That certainly looks to take up at least $100,000 of the $191,000 allocated as part of the Local Road and Community Infrastructure Program, with plenty of community consultation on the way to ascertain other worthy projects to be funded. “We thought we should get a couple of these bigger projects out of the way and then look at what’s left,” Mayor Nunan said. The Robe Foreshore (main photo) is also in the council’s sights with the extension of both the pathway and lighting to run all the way to the new ramp. Wattle Range Council also had plenty of projects on the books just waiting for a cash injection, according to Wattle Range Council director engineering services Peter Halton and in good news for a number of community

NO FUN RUN FOR 2020

projects, the recommendations were all ticked off the council at last week’s meeting, with council also making contributions over and above the Federal funding to get as much bang for their buck as possible. With just over $600,000 added to the coffers by the new grants program, Wattle Range Council is set to undertake a much needed redevelopment of the Susan Wilson Memorial Playground in Beachport. Two local road upgrades are also in council’s sights with Millicent’s Lossie Lane and the Mt Burr Service Road, while Penola will see both it’s north and south entrance points spruced up with entrance signage and landscaping, ensuring travellers are still directed to the town’s main street since the completion of the bypass project. The Beachport Bowling Club (above inset) is also set for a clubroom redevelopment in a bid to generate more income for the club. “We want to be able to encourage more business opportunities for them,” Mr Halton said. “These programs are about more than just building infrastructure but it needs to benefit the community and local business. We definitely hope this will stimulate the economy and

wherever possible we will be looking to local contractors.” Naracoorte Lucindale Council CEO Trevor Smart said the council would be working through the best options for spending the $573,718 funding pool from the Local Road and Community Infrastructure Program. “It can be spent on a range of projects – but cannot be on any programs or projects that are already within our draft 2020/21 Budget,” Mr Smart said, with all councils having to spend their latest stimulus funding by the end of June next year. “We haven’t determined what our projects are at this stage and council will consider a range of road and/or community infrastructure projects later this month.” The City of Mount Gambier was also working through its options, as was the Tatiara District Council, Kingston District Council and Grant District Council.

The OneFortyOne Plantations Blue Lake Fun Run celebrated its 10th anniversary last year but the 11th running of the popular community event will not be run until 2021 after organisers made the tough decision to call off this year’s event, scheduled for later this year. Spokesperson Trevor Williams said it was a tough but necesary call before too much time, effort and expense went into 2020 planning. “It is definitely a bit of a shame,“ he said. “But it was the most resonsible thing to do.” Running an event that traditionally atttacts around 1000 participants was going to be tough to run under new social distancing protocols and in the end, planning for a bigger and better 2021 Blue Lake Fun Run was the most prudent call. “We were also not comfortable hitting up local businesses, who have always been so generous with donations and prizes, given how tough everyone has been doing it,” Mr Williams said.

LOCAL SPORT The Kowree Naracoorte Tatiara Football League has made the tough call to abandon its 2020 season with the netball association expected to follow suit at a meeting on Monday night. In good news for junior development in the region, the league has plans to create a junior competition with the junior football officials meeting this week, with high hopes KanivaLeeor will be part of the revamped junior fixture once border restrictions are lifted on July 20. Border closures, player payments and uncertainty about crowd numbers were key factors in the vote to put things off until 2021. League president Peter McLellan said there were certainly mixed feelings in the room at last week’s meeting, with Kaniva-Leeor officials joining the discussion via Zoom, but in the end, it was a majority decision, made with heavy hearts. With the South Australian Government setting spectator numbers at 500 as of July 3, that number was still well below typical attendances for KNTFL fixtures, which normally sit around the 800 mark, so combining the issues with

KNTFL RELUCTANTLY CALLS IT QUITS FOR 2020

June 17 1631 - Mumtaz Mahal dies during childbirth. Her husband, Mughal emperor Shah Jahan I, then spends more than 20 years building her tomb, the Taj Mahal (pictured). 1943 - The man who gave us Could It Be Magic, Mandy, I Write the Songs, Can’t Smile Without You and Copacabana was born - the great Barry Manilow. 1962 – Jack Nicklaus wins his first major title - the US Open.

crowd numbers, players that could not cross the border to play for their selected club until at least July 20, the lack of match payments and the social distancing protocols needing to be overseen by hard working volunteers, both on and off the field, made for a situation that ended up being deemed unviable.

SOCCER LOOKS SET TO RETURN The Limestone Coast Football Association has taken another step closer to setting a 2020 season fixture in stone. The association board is now toying with a July 19 or July 26 start, depending on the final number of clubs involved in the 2020 season. If Portland is part of the competition and a bye is required, the Victorian based club will have an opening round bye, taking into account the opening of the SA borders on July 20. If there is an even number of clubs, the season will start on July 26.
