HISTORICAL: AT THE BUTCHERS

A TALE OF TWO BUTCHER SHOPS

The research into the history of butcher shops in Kenilworth has included assistance from so many people for which the writer is most grateful. As in the past the staff at the Heritage Library have proved invaluable in validating the facts recorded from the memories of people who lived in the area in past years.

Some of the gaps in the history of the Kenilworth Butchery have been found by extensive searching the digitised newspaper records on Trove. It was reported on page three of the Nambour Chronicle July 17, 1925 that Mr Fritz intended to

open a butcher shop in Kenilworth. Mr. P. Heenan of Conondale purchased the business as reported in the Nambour Chronicle, published on page 7 of the 21 November, 1930 issue. The next owner recorded in the newspaper articles appears to be Mr. G.H. Rackemann in February, 1934 (Nambour Chronicle 3 June 1932, page 5). From the Kenilworth Provisional School roles it has been determined that Rodney Tirrell, Son of William (Bill) Tirrell, (butcher) was enrolled in November 1939 when Mr. Smith (Bill Tirrell’s father-inlaw) took over the business working with Bill as the slaughterman. The slaughter yards were in the land to the west of the school grounds and the cheese factory. In May, 1954 the council Health Inspector recommended that the council object to the renewal of the licence because it was too close to town where the cheese factory was situated and the applicant was given 12 months to find a new site (Nambour Chronicle 7.5.1954, page 7). The Nambour Licensing

Court approved the renewal in June, 1954 (Nambour Chronicle 18.6.1954, page 7).

On January 19, 1962 Nambour Chronicle (page 3) reported that the business had been leased by W. Tirrell to W.E. Pearson of Eumundi. The lease changed hands in 1964 to E. Ridgers. The freehold of the “top” butcher shop was sold to H.J and H.F. Gray in 1966 (personal communication William Gray). At this point in time the shop was managed by Melvin (Boy) Burnett. The Gray family sold to Wayne and Lyle Paulger in March, 1987 (personal communication Wayne Paulger). Ownership passed to A and C Barrow in January, 1991 and then to T. Hennigan before being sold to D. & M Smith in 1993 after which Ralph Wells became Kenilworth butcher in 2000. Bradley McKillop was next to don the apron in 2004 (personal communication Bradley McKillop). Unfortunately the butcher shop closed in 2010.

The story of the “bottom” butcher will have to wait until the September issue –the word count has been used!

WORDS FROM WADE: THE CHIEF CHOOKIE ORGANISER

The 2025 Kenilworth Chook Chase Was a great success, with no major injuries, not even an Ambulance ride for the event!

The event this year was way more hectic (For me at least) and we could not have done it without the help of everyone involved!

Everyone is important, so the thanks I give are in no particular order.

Danny Marrs, and Dave Mcottor, the novice track area and access to the forestry for open loop, BIG THANKS!

The Chookie Sweep track set up crew, we can't do it without you!

The Chookie Sweep crew, both novice and Open track, thank you for hanging around for the Sunday mudfest, awesome job as it was very busy!

Ben Paulger, Diggerjob, has gone beyond and above this year, with many days needed for track repairs in Marrs paddock .

Also very important is the nomination office crew, another busy year, with most merchandise sold out, and all tickets sold out!

Big thanks go out the Kenilworth School P&C, the poor crew was flat out all weekend, with many of the same faces over all days seen in the kitchen, JOB WELL DONE, love your work!

Thanks to The Mary Valley Voice for helping with the raffle tickets, another time consuming job!

Many thanks also go out to QLD Plantations for working with us to organize a safe and responsible event.

We would also like to thank the Kenilworth show grounds, cleaners of the grounds and toilets, Kenilworth Rural Supplies, and the Saulis Groupe Paramedics, as well as QLD Police for their help and services.

We would also like to thank The Kenilworth Community, and anyone that we forgot to thank, for hosting us for the weekend.

There are many cogs in the wheel of the Chook Chase, and everyone working together for a single goal makes it a pleasure.

We are already working on next year, see you then!

FEEL GOOD NEWS STORIES...

DOLLY FROM THE DAIRY

Have you been to the Kenilworth Dairies, formerly known by locals as the Kenilworth Cheese Factory, lately to purchase a delicious product or enjoy a meal with friends and family? If you have, you may have noticed that an iconic member of the facility disappeared for a few weeks recently and has now returned after a transformative face lift.

“Dolly from the dairy”, as she’s been named by Shirley Moreland, has a long history with our town, community events and the Kenilworth Dairies. Most of us don’t know the story behind her, so Shirley has written a short history to inform us.

Some years ago, as part of a publicity and promotion campaign, the Leukaemia Foundation distributed some life-sized fibreglass cows to various places to be painted. The campaign was very successful and when it ended the cows were sold. Kenilworth Arts Council, with financial assistance from President Shirley Moreland, bought a cow from Kilcoy for $2000 in about the year 2000.

When the Kenilworth Food Fest was held, the decorated cow and children from a local dairying family posed for the front cover of the Mary Valley Voice. If you go to the ISSUU.com web page and look at past issues, you will see the photos from 2010 until 2016.

When the Food Fest ended, KAC decided to give the cow to Kenilworth Dairies to put on display. She has resided there since 2017, wearing a plain coat and decorated by staff for events during the year.

Local Kenilworth SCC teacher and artist Theresa Lyndon volunteered to design the artwork and paint Dolly, on behalf of the Kenilworth Arts Council. Important and endangered local wildlife and the Mary River were depicted over Dolly, as well as the Dairies logo. She was given some beautiful dairy cow features and now sits proudly for all to enjoy when they visit the Kenilworth Dairies.

The cow became part of the Kenilworth ArtsFest and was either dressed up with beads, scarves and flowers or painted by KAC members and Kenilworth children. One year the children painted their hands on the cow and another time, KAC members drew cartoon character outlines for the children to colour.

VARIETY QUEENSLAND’S ANNUAL FUNDRAISER – THE VARIETY BASH – TOOK OFF FROM ST GEORGE ON 3 AUGUST

2025 marks the 50th anniversary of Variety – the Children’s Charity in Australia. Over the past 50 years Variety has distributed over $700 million in grants to support Australian children who are sick, disadvantaged or living with a disability.

The highlight of this anniversary was the staging the first ‘National’ Variety Bash in 10 years, where every Variety route will meet

Can you spot the 5 local icons displayed proudly on Dolly?

in Adelaide to acknowledge the collective achievement. Around 2000 people attended this event.

Variety Queensland was from St George to Adelaide via Brewarrina, White Cliffs and Wentworth. The return trip home will took the Bashers from Adelaide to Port Macquarie via Nhill, Deniliquin, Parkes and Tamworth.

The Variety Bash is unique in that it both raises funds for kids in need and distributes grants along the way. To see, meet and hear the stories of those Variety has helped along the way doesn't often leave too many dry eyes in the house.

It is more than a drive through the outback, but a celebration of community spirit and our shared commitment to support those Aussie kids who need us most.

Last year Mark’s team - Kenilworth Country Cabin’s car 911 raised $30 000 for kids in need and won ‘Best Presented Vehicle!!’

In 2025 they raised an amazing $36 000 for kids in need landing them in the Top 10 Fundraisers pool. Mark said that they were greatly supported in their Mega Raffle and with donations by many local Kenilworth and Mary Valley businesses, everyone's efforts are hugely appreciated.

Watch this space to see if the Kenilworth Country Cabin's 'Top Gun' Fireman hit the Variety Bash road again in 2026!

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR

SLENDER GRAPE VS BALLOON VINE

In our local bushland, two climbing plants often get confused: the native slender grape (Cayratia clematidea) and the invasive balloon vine (Cardiospermum grandiflorum). While they may look similar at a glance, their impact on the environment is very different. Learn to spot the difference so you can protect our waterways and bushland!

The native slender grape has bright green leaves divided into five leaflets, berries that are small and dark, and tiny, greenish-white flowers. It plays a valuable role in local ecosystems, providing food for birds and insects like the currawong and the painted moth.

Meanwhile, the invasive balloon vine has three-lobed compound leaves, balloon-like seed pods, and white flowers with four petals. It spreads rapidly and can overwhelm native vegetation. Correct identification helps protect our bushland from invasive threats.

If you find balloon vine on your property, you can remove it by cutting it at the base and digging out the roots. For more identification and control information for balloon vine, scan the QR code.

CR DAVID LAW DIVISION 10 – SUNSHINE COAST COUNCIL

Renewing our parks: I'd like to share with you what’s been happening close to home, as Council continues to maintain and renew our parks and gardens to ensure vibrant, welcoming spaces year-round. Across our region, we look after nearly 1200 parks and more than 1450 hectares of open space – that’s a lot of grass, trees, playgrounds and picnic spots! The commitment of our Parks and Gardens team to keeping our parks green, clean and inviting is evident in every corner of Division 10. In the 2025–26 Budget we’re investing in park renewals that bring fresh energy and improved amenities to our neighbourhoods. In Kenilworth Town Park, we’re giving the whole area a refresh with a new playground, fencing, picnic tables and a spruced-up barbecue. It’s all about creating spaces where families and visitors feel welcome and relaxed. Improving our amenities: We’re also improving amenities in parks like North Arm Park, Arthur Roberts Park in Kureelpa, Mapleton Lilyponds Park, Bonney Park in Kidaman Creek and the Nambour Showgrounds – so you’ll notice cleaner, more comfortable facilities when you visit over the coming year

Major Grants funding - apply now: Council’s next round of Major Grants funding for local, not-for-profits, is now open for applications. I hope many of our Division 10 community groups will give it a go. You can apply for up to $15,000 in all program categories with up to $30,000 available for infrastructure projects. Please reach out to Council’s Grants team about your community event, activity or project, for guidance on how to submit a strong application. Find more information on Council’s website grants page. Applications close August 25. Please contact me with any questions or comments at email: david.law@sunshinecoast.qld.gov.au and follow my Facebook page for regular updates: @DavidLawDivision10.

CR WINSTON JOHNSTON DIVISION 5 - SC COUNCIL

Bushfire season here: Sunshine Coast’s dry season starts in August, which means it’s that time of year again - Bushfire Season. It may have been a relatively wet winter, but it only takes a week of warm weather for the ground to dry out and a bushfire to become a serious threat. I urge hinterland residents to prepare their properties by; mowing lawns regularly, clearing gutters, trim low-lying tree branches, and check your emergency kit and household plan are up to date. Also familiarise yourself with the Get Ready Queensland website and Council’s Disaster Hub - so when a fire happens you know how to react.

Fence installation: I am pleased to announce that the site works to renew the fence at McCarthys Lookout Park in Maleny are underway and should take about three weeks to complete (weather permitting). The work will include erosion control, tree protection, removal of existing timber barrier edge, then installation of new timber barrier fence.

Nature art prize for students: The Wild HeART Student Art Prize is now open for entries from five to 18-year-olds. Encouraging entrants to explore local environments and create an original artwork, finalists will feature in an exhibition at the Maroochy Regional Bushland Botanic Garden, Tanawah. Search “wildheart” at botanic-garden. sunshinecoast.qld.gov.au for details. Entries close October 5.

Citizen panel lottery: Council is seeking more input from our community by establishing a Citizens’ Panel: a group of people from across the region selected by lottery to make sure all perspectives are heard on key issues. If you receive a panel invitation, I hope you’ll step up to help represent the views of our division 5 community and register your interest by August 17.

A CELEBRATION OF ALL THINGS SCOTTISH - 30 AUGUST, 2025

You may have enjoyed the traditional Scottish meal of “Haggis”, perfect for Hogmanay celebrations, first footing or a Burns Night dinner on January 25th when it is brought to the table with a tune on the bagpipes and an “Address to a Haggis” –the poem by Robert Burns, recited before it’s served. Another staple is “Neeps and Tatties” made from stewed mince and potatoes, usually washed down with a good whisky. A dessert may be “Cranachan”, a traditional pudding originally made during August’s harvest month when raspberries are available. Sometimes made with “Crowdie” a cream cheese, or a mixture of double cream, whisky, honey, fresh raspberries and toasted oatmeal, soaked overnight in a little drop of whisky. Exported all over the world, Shortbread is popular when offered with tea. Dating back to the 1500’s, it is said to have been favoured by Mary Queen of Scots

I hope all is well with you and your families. Hasn't it been cold here in the valley (finally) so I am glad it is a short season. The MVV volunteers worked at the Chook Chase for 2 days, what a great event with good community support and a great attraction for the town. Last month I also attended the Queensland Garden Show on behalf of MVV News Association with a VIP Pass to attend the Opening Ceremony. What an attraction for the area with over 350 exhibitors. I needed more than a day as had husband in tow and that did not work so well!

MARY VALLEY NEWS AND NOTICES

VALE JEAN BEAUSANG 30/071942 –03/07/2025

Daphne ‘Jean’ Beausang was born ½ an hour before her twin sister in Brisbane on July 30th 1942. They were the 3rd and 4th of 6 children born to Stan and Phyllis Rossow. Her father worked different jobs, from truck driving to dairy farming, which meant the family moved around a lot.

At 9 years old, Jean had a serious fall from off the stairs at their home in Toogoolawah. Her elbow was smashed so badly that they talked of amputation. They managed to save her arm, but she spent 4 months in a Brisbane hospital, only seeing her mother once a week, and had constant pain in that arm every day for the rest of her life.

and was always there to lend a hand or a shoulder to lean on. Although she suffered from constant pain in her arm, and later in life other serious health issues, she never complained and carried on with her usual smile, strength and dignity. She was born to be a grandmother and was very proud of her 11 grandchildren, their partners and her 12 greatgrandchildren.

On Thursday, 3rd July 2025, Jean passed away with her family by her side. To them she was the epitome of love, family and strength and she will be forever missed.

At 13, Jean went to work in leather factory making belts. She also worked in a cannery, measured flour and sugar at Barry and Roberts, had seasonal work at Arnott’s Biscuit factory and worked on dairy farms at Witta.

When she was 18 she married Conondale farmer Alan Beausang. They lived and worked on his family farm, raising their 5 children, [Lena, Lin, Stan, Karen and Tracey], until moving to Kenilworth in 1980. Jean kept the home fires burning while Alan did fencing and other odd jobs. They also owned and ran the Kenilworth News agency for a number of years.

Alan was actively involved in the Conondale and Kenilworth community, and Jean was his behind the scenes support. They were delighted when, in 2016, they were named as Kenilworth’s Living Treasures. Alan passed away in 2020 after 60 wonderful years of marriage.

Jean was a gentle, loving and caring lady who loved music and the simple things in life. She hated to see anyone in pain or in trouble

Jean’s family would like to thank the St Luke’s congregation and Rev Kaye Pitman for allowing Jean’s funeral service to be held there, conducting the service, and the warmth and support they offered. Special thanks to Peter Hennessy and Pierre for all of their help. Jean’s family are also very grateful to the Kenilworth Bowling club for providing a place to share memories, and for generously providing catering. Finally they would like to thank the community for the love and support they have received.
