Volunteers relied on to continue Berri mental health service after State Government funding cuts

FEARS have been raised over the future of a Berri mental health service following State Government funding cuts, meaning the program is now relying on volunteers. One Voice Network, which is the overarching association of Berri based Rainbow Connection, has been without funding since March. Rainbow Connection is a regular

Terry Udy said the group, which has centres across South Australia, was previously told by Country Health SA that it would not allow the organisation to “fall over”. However, Mr Udy now has grave concerns about its future without any funding for positions. “We will lose these programs,” he said.

“One of the country centres on the Yorke Peninsula has already closed and another one is still running but they’ve pulled out of the One Voice Network and they are trying to go on their own to get money to pay for co-ordinators. “There are some passionate people at Rainbow Connection in Berri wanting to keep it going but

they’re volunteers and eventually a volunteer gets tired.” Mr Udy said more pressure will be put onto local health services if funding cannot be obtained for a co-ordinator position for Rainbow Connection. n Continued Page 2

More petrol competition SOME years ago when I moved to the Riverland, I remember petrol prices plummeting in Renmark. It was unusual to say the least, with other Riverland towns still a significant amount dearer. What created that situation was competition. One service station dropped their petrol prices and the others were forced to follow suit. I heard of people driving from Loxton to Renmark just to take advantage of the savings and there were line-ups interrupting traffic. Driving through Adelaide, you quickly work out that you need to fill up with petrol during the week before the price rises on the weekends. Living in the city you get into a habit of going out to fill up your car on a particular day. In the Riverland there is no such thing. You can drive past the same service station each day without any real change to petrol prices. Often different local towns have varying prices but are you willing to make the drive to save two cents per litre? I’d like to see an independent service station drop their prices and just watch, the motorists will flock.

A BERRI couple have created a track in the heart of Berri as an alternative to dangerously walking along the 80 kilometre per hour Riverview Drive. Steve Rodley and his wife Vi discovered a series of short tracks made by native animals in an area close to the often busy Riverview Drive in Berri. Created through areas of high animal traffic, the pair have made a 1.5 kilometre walk they have named the Kangaroo Track. Mr Rodley said not only is the track a safe alternative to walking on the road but it is a tranquil experience where you can witness nature at its best. “It makes a really nice walking track and a good one to bring the kids through or even walk your dog through rather than walk on the 80 kilometre road,” he said. “A lot of people, here it is right under their nose and they didn’t even really know it existed “It is actually quite beautiful.” The track is currently flagged starting at Riverview Drive, opposite Crowhurst’s Mart and finishes at the creek crossing on Martin

■ WILDLIFE: Berri man Steve Rodley surrounded by the wonders of nature at the newly created Kangaroo Track. Bend Drive. There are a number of tree and plant species along the track, as well as the opportunity to see different types of birds, kangaroos, possums, water rats, fish, snakes, lizards, frogs and even echidnas. Mr Rodley said the track also links up to the newly named Allan Thurmer Recreational Trail. He said the track could be the start of creating a walking area linking up Riverland towns. “The big picture of all of

this is I’d like to see a walk not unlike the Heysen Trail in a sense, linking all the Rivelrand towns together,” Mr Rodley said. “If it is promoted correctly, it could be a drawcard for the whole region.” With the road not far from Kangaroo Track, Mr Rodley said the area is very quiet. “It’s just really peaceful and the bird life is unbelievable, there are birds you wouldn’t know were here,” he said.

■ From Page 1 “It will just mean there will be more people becoming unwell quicker and possibly more hospital admissions,” he said. One Voice Network was originally formed by volunteers to obtain funding for co-ordinator roles in Mental Health Activity and Resource Centres across South Australia. After two years, funding agreements were put into place by Country Health SA to place a part-time co-ordinator in each centre for two and a half years. In the second year of the agreement, Mr Udy said One Voice Network began working with Country Health SA to secure further funding and spent many months developing a business case only for funding to cease without any consultation. “The centres are now struggling on with voluntary coordinators,” he said. “If they are allowed to fail, many people suffering from mental health issues will have nowhere to go and will be thrust back upon their local mental health services, ambulance and police for assistance.” Currently One Voice Network has an online petition with over 125 signatures, including from a number of Riverlanders. “Every time a person signs the online petition an email goes to the Premier, the Minister of Health and the CEO of Country Health SA to let them know that people are interested,” Mr Udy said. “I wrote to the Treasurer and I said it costs over $1000 per day to have somebody in hospital and he’s only got to get a couple of people in there for a few months and the money that we wanted to run for over 100 people across the state is gone just on a few people being in hospital, it’s pretty short sighted.” To sign the petition visit www.change.org/ petitions/premier-reinstate-the-funding-toone-voice-network

Riverlanders encouraged to walk for a good cause STAFF at the Berri Salvation Army store have organised a riverfront walk this Sunday to raise money for children in need. The national Salvos Stores initiative aims to raise $30,000 for the International Programme for the Street Kids of Indonesia. Berri Salvos Store manager Helen Adamczyk said the local organisation decided to host

Walk for a Cause. “We’ve decided to come up with the idea of walking for a cause, so just going for a community walk encouraging people to bring their families and their friends,” she said. “This is really just about having fun whilst it’s raising money for a good cause,” Already the local store has raised $1800 and hopes to im-

prove on that figure. The walk will take place this Sunday with registration at 1.45pm for a 2pm start at the Uniting Church Hall on Denny Street in Berri. There will be a choice of two distances, five kilometres and two and a half kilometres, with the event costing $5 to participate and children under 16 free.

Interest in Bowling facility A NUMBER of businesses have expressed interest in purchasing the former premises of Berri Bowland. Receiver Martin Lewis said commercial real estate agent CBRE has commenced marketing for the property and so far there has been positive feedback. “Even before it hit the market we’ve already had a number of good expressions of interest from a lot of groups and bowling operators,” Mr Lewis said. “We’ve shown a couple (of interested parties) through already.

“So we are quite hopeful that we will get a sale.” Berri Bowland went into liquidation earlier this year with the Federal Court appointing BRI Ferrier as liquidators in Februray and Sou South Australian director

up by a creditor owed a substantial amount of money, so it took application in the Federal Court and just obtained an order and the court appointed me as official liquidator,” Mr Rudaks said.

Even before it hit the market we’ve already had a number of good expressions of interest. Maris Rudaks was appointed to oversee the situation. He was unable to sell the business titled Berri Bowland. “Obviously it was wound

“We took control for a period of time trying to find a purchaser but the bank decided it wanted to take over that process itself.”

On June 9, Mr Lewis, who is a partner at Ferrier Hodgson, was appointed as receiver. “The purpose of the receivership is to maximise the return to the appointer so this will be a fairly robust marketing process and the market value will be determined by the bids that are forthcoming from that process,” Mr Lewis said. “The appointer, the bank, will be paid in reduction of its debt from the proceeds that we recover from the sale of the asset.” Expressions of interest for the sale close on August 2.

Council to speed up riverfront project IN an effort to speed up the Berri riverfront development, initially proposed in 2006, Berri Barmera Council is likely to fund the move of the bowling club at more than $1.8 million and recover the expenditure from the sale of the land. Council plans to develop on the land currently used for bowling greens and sporting fields near the Berri riverfront for residential and tourism purposes. As part of the project, clubrooms at Glassey Park will be extended to allow for bowls, hockey, softball, baseball and soccer use and two artificial bowling greens will be constructed at a

cost of around $1.8 million. “We are trying to lobby the Premier and Minister Paul Caica for the council to finance the move of the bowling club and recovering those funds from the State Government for the sale of the blocks in an effort to speed it up,” Berri Barmera Council chief executive officer David Beaton said. “It is a project we’ve had going for several years and it’s a commitment that council wants to make sure can happen as soon as possible.” Mr Beaton said tenders have been chosen for the work on the clubrooms and new

Hayden Stoeckel Swimming Pool to stay, consultant to be hired to assess problems THE Berri Barmera Council has committed to the long term future of the Hayden Stoeckel Swimming Pool with advice being sought on immediate works required. At a special council meeting on Tuesday night, it was reiterated that council is committed to the pool remaining functional in Berri and a long term solution will be required rather than quick fixes. Berri Barmera Council chief

executive officer David Beaton said there is a lack of definitive quality information regarding the nature of problems and issues at the pool, solutions to these problems and programming of upgrades to the facility. “What they are trying to do is find a program of works that will make sure the swimming pool is a facility for the longer term,” he said. “We are going to get some expert advice as to what might be

critical, what might be cosmetic and what might need to be done now and what can be done over a period of time.” Mr Beaton said council will now hire a consultant to undertake a detailed analysis of the swimming pool infrastructure to develop a rehabilitation and long term asset management plan. Council is also expected to work closely with the Berri Swimming Club and may

seek new management for the summer period. “We’d be keen for the swimming pool to operate as well over summer when it is forecast to be warm but we just have to work through the issues to get that to happen,” Mr Beaton said. A $2 million application to build a new swimming pool in Berri was denied through the Regional Development Australia Fund recently.

Berri Barmera seniors to lose Christmas parties but gain waste levy rebate SENIORS in the Berri Barmera Council area may be forced to give up annual council funded Christmas parties with the $11,000 savings used to fund a new waste collection rebate. Berri Barmera Council is proposing money be saved by no longer hosting the senior parties with savings to go towards a $20 pensioner rebate for the waste levy to be introduced in January, 2013.

“It may and well be ongoing but we will just have to wait and see what we do over the ensuing years but it’s realising it (the waste levy) is a large cost,” Council chief executive officer David Beaton said. “To save some money they are looking at cutting out the senior citizens’ parties they have in Berri and Barmera. “They will save $11,000 there, so that can help fund part

of the $20,000 to give the pensioners the rebate. “It will be proposed that it will be an automatic rebate so people don’t have to apply for it.” During the review of the 2012-13 annual business plan before adoption, it is being proposed that a commercial fee for businesses to fund the Destination Riverland contribution no longer apply.

“They have gone through the budget and identified more savings and they will use that to pay for the Destination Riverland amount for this year,” Mr Beaton said. Budgets for the Berri and Barmera town beautification committees may also be halved from $20,000 to $10,000 and council may also not fund the Riverland Multicultural Festival in the next financial year.

Competition needed for diesel THE RAA is urging Riverland motorists to reward retailers offering the biggest savings in a bid to drive down the price of diesel. Local petrol outlets are refusing to budge on diesel prices despite the wholesale price dropping by 16 cents in recent months. RAA senior policy analyst Chris West said there is concern that diesel prices have remained stagnant in the organisation’s two monitoring centres in Renmark and Loxton. “Petrol wholesale price fell 24 cents and diesel fell about 16,” he said. “Loxton hasn’t seen any change at all and Renmark dropped a little bit but has returned to 150.9 and it has been that level for four weeks. “The feedback we are getting from our members in those centres

is what’s going on with diesel?” Mr West said the a lack of competition may be to blame for the stagnant price. “You’ve got to give retailers an incentive to drop their price, so whenever you see someone lower than everybody else in town, you need to go to them,” he said. “If it is a big oil major or even a supermarket and there is an independent close by offering an equivalent price, shop at the independent. “It’s about creating that competition because at some stage the big retailer, whether they be a supermarket or an oil major, will have to turn around and give you a better price and that creates competition. “It’s tit-for-tat between retailers to get your business.

“To get that type of behaviour in country areas, you’ve got to reward the retailer offering the best price.” While Adelaide motorists have been enjoying unleaded prices of below $1.20 per litre, Mr West said those prices are unlikely to be seen in the country areas. He said with the drop in wholesale price, there should be further reduction in fuel prices to the mid $1.30 per litre. “Renmark has been an odd case and the reason is we were critical of it earlier this year because their prices were not in line with everybody elses and then suddenly they dropped,” Mr West said. “So what I am suggesting is the Renmark motorists got access to the 24 cent saving due to local competition probably three weeks before everybody else.”

Average prices at the pump:

Unleaded Daily average price Loxton -140.8 Renmark - 138.1

Diesel Daily average price Loxton - 151.9 Renmark - 150.9

Weekly average price Loxton - 140.3 Renmark - 138.1

Golf club turns down proposal WAIKERIE Golf Club members have told the Waikerie Hotel Motel Board it is not in a financial position to reclaim ownership of the course. At a meeting on Monday night, the golf club committee reviewed four recommendations put forward by the hotel board. “We viewed the options that the hotel had put to the golf club and basically the golf club aren’t in a financial position to be able to take it back, so the hotel will remain the owners,” secretary Sonya Tscharke said. “We’ve recommended to the board that they actually send a letter out to all the members giving more information on the structure moving forward in terms of how they see the hotel operating. “The golf members offered to run the golf competition and they will do that on a volunteer basis.” A proposal by the hotel to raise fees at the club was met with some concern, according to Mrs Tscharke. “They have not quite doubled, so it was a big jump from what the members were expecting and there was concern about that,” she said.

Murraylands residents’ $46 million in lost super annuation ALARMING figures released by Westpac this month show that more than $46 million in superannuation is currently lost in the Murraylands area. Westpac Riverland chief executive officer Lee-Anne Lodge said the total of lost super in the Murraylands area equates to an average of over $2500 per person. “It is just increasing and that’s why we are trying to jump on it as much as we can,” she said. “This is our community, these are our people, I’m a local born and bred person and we don’t want anyone to be missing out on any hard earned money.” The figures come after the Federal Government recently discovered that that the amount of lost super across Australia currently sits at $17.4 billion. Ms Lodge said in the Murraylands area, the super may have become lost during the transition between jobs. “I think really around here we’ve just got such a high job change,” she said. “I think that has got a lot to do with it.” Lost super is money that can be put towards retirement savings, according to Ms Lodge. “Obviously we all need a lot of money when we want to retire,” she said. “For retiring we are looking at approximately $600,000 to $700,000, so every little bit counts.”

Tips to Find your Lost Super • To search for your lost super, visit your local Westpac branch with your Tax File Number, super account member statement and bank account details. • Consider consolidating your accounts. • Make a list of all the jobs you’ve had over the past 10 years and find out where your super went for each one. • When finding lost super, get in touch with the super fund to update personal details and consider consolidating your super accounts, which may reduce recurring or duplicate fees.

Salvation Army in Renmark moving to Berri

■ HELPING: The Salvation Army Envoy Kevin van Amstel outside the Renmark premises this week. Photo: BRAD PERRY

Search for new home AFTER 122 years in the Riverland town, the Salvation Army will move its Renmark services to Berri as part of a planned amalgamation at the end of the year. Currently the organisation is searching across Berri for a new home to co-ordinate its Renmark services. Salvation Army communications and fundraising secretary Rod Reeve emphasised that the move is not about making financial savings but instead described it as “logical”. “All of our social service programs are centred in Berri now and we are simply moving the Renmark facility, which is the church, from Renmark to amalgamate it to bring it in with Berri so we are centralised,” he said. “We think, certainly from a posi-

tive point of view, by bringing all of these Salvation Army activities together that will be better from an overall management point of view, certainly from the delivery of our services. “I would anticipate that potentially there may be some cost savings but that is certainly not a priority in this instance. “We are hoping that it will actually strengthen what happens in Berri which then may have a positive impact on service delivery for those in Renmark who would need our assistance.” Mr Reeve said investigations are currently taking place to find a facility to co-ordinate the additional services in Berri.

“We do have premises for the social programs as it currently stands but we are hoping to find suitable premises where we can co-ordinate everything together and that is being investigated at the moment,” he said. “I would think at this point of time it would be an existing building and that will be determined in due course. “In an ideal world, if we could find somewhere we could go straight into at that time it would be the way we would want to do it because we want to make it as easy transition as possible.” An anniversary to celebrate 122 years of the Salvation Army in Renmark is being planned for September 29.

Hotel to benefit from tavern closure FUNDS from the sale of Renmark’s Tower Tavern will be put towards upgrades at the Renmark Hotel. The Jane Eliza Estate restaurant has experienced difficulty in trading over the past two years and it is now likely the property will go up for auction, following the recent sale of 28 poker machines. The Renmark Hotel Motel Board manages the tavern and chairman Randell McClure said the decision was made to sell the poker machines to take advantage of a Federal Government program. “We had the opportunity to trade or participate in the last poker machine trade and we adopted a realistic reserve on the entitlements and we were fortunate enough to sell them,” he said. Mr McClure said proceeds from the poker machines’ sale will go towards upgrades at the hotel. “We plan to use funds to retired debt and do some work around the Renmark Hotel,” he said. “We are putting in a new lift and we are going to upgrade the current poker room and freshen up the bistro.”

Car takes wrong turn...into the marina IT is an unusual sight to see a car being pulled from the River Murray but that was what a group of onlookers witnessed in Berri on Tuesday. After taking a wrong turn at the Berri Marina on Tuesday night, a Mount Gambier woman and her passenger found her Nissan Pulsar quickly filling with water. The pair were able to escape through the windows but the car went completely under water, apart from a small section of the roof which was visible. Berri Riverside Caravan Park resident manager Kay

Kubenk said two soaking wet people required help. “We had a call at the front door of the caravan park about 11.30pm and these two people were standing there completely drenched and a bit upset,” she said. “The marina at night is very dark, so they just mistook the boat ramp for being the road. “I think they took the wrong turn in there.” The water logged car was pulled from the bottom of the Berri Marina, just off the boat ramp on Tuesday. Berri Barmera Council

■ Renmark’s Tower Tavern. The future of the Towern Tavern still remains unclear and Mr McClure said the business will continue trading for about another three weeks. “What becomes with the tavern itself is in the hands of some advisers,” he said. “It’s (the Tower Tavern) in need of some work. “We may subdivide and go to auction.” Permanent and casual staff will be relocated as part of the process and Mr McClure said there will be no redundancies. “It may be unfortunate that Renmark will have one less venue but there are probably enough poker machines in the Rivelrand itself, so we don’t think we are doing the pokie players a disservice,” he said.

No response to business plan

Mallee council cuts industrial development to reduce debt

Five per cent rate rise ■ STREET: The completion of landscaping in the main street of Karoonda has been included in the local council’s 2012-13 business plan. KAROONDA East Murray Council did not receive a single response from the public about its 2012-13 annual business plan with rates rising by four per cent. However, the response, or lack of, was not unusual, according to Karoonda East Murray Council chief executive officer Peter Smithson. “Unfortunately we didn’t get any response but that’s (consultation) what we are required to do,” he said. “The only time we usually get some responses is if there is something a bit contentious there and that doesn’t happen very often. “I haven’t had anyone come up to me and say anything one way or the other.” The business plan was adopted by council last month and Mr Smithson said capital works were kept to a minimum in an attempt to keep the burden on ratepayers down. “We’d previously done a major trim in terms of our budget, so we are hoping to get some more funding for the continuation of sealing the road from Perponda through to Bow Hill,” he said. “There was some resealing works that we are looking at, of the major capital items there is a replacement of a construction grader which is around $300,000 and we are looking at some landscaping in the main street of Karoonda to finish off what we have started. “We’ve always been conservative and our increases are usually just a little bit more than CPI.”

A TWELVE lot industrial development in Pinnaroo has been cut as part of the Southern Mallee District Council’s 2012-13 draft annual business plan with a five per cent general rate increase being proposed. In a bid to reduce any further debt, Pinnaroo’s proposed industrial development has been deferred and no other major capital works, with exception to a $1 million wastewater upgrade in Lameroo, are expected to occur this financial year. Southern Mallee District Council chief executive officer Rod Ralph said the rate rise is on target with other councils in the Riverland and Mallee. “We think we’ve been able to bring about a budget that is probably not too far from most other councils given they’re projecting somewhat higher at this stage,” Mr Ralph said. “I think it is going to be one, for the majority, that people will be fairly happy with what is being proposed. “We believe we are going to potentially...be facing a situation where we will be applying much closer to the local government actual cost of CPI, which is low four per cent. “In regards to our overall expenses, we have not taken on any new capital infrastructure projects that aren’t part of our business.” Council is also proposing

■ BUSINESS PLAN: Outgoing Southern Mallee District Council chief executive officer Rod Ralph believes the majority of the community will be happy with the fiver per cent rate rise being proposed in the 2012-13 annual business plan. to increase the annual service charge by 10 per cent to fund loan repayments from Pinnaroo’s new community wastewater system. “Unfortunately as a council cost for both of our two major towns, within about a three year period total upgrades are required and naturally enough, they’ve come in at over $1 million each and of course, they have to be paid for,” Mr Ralph said. “The rate rises for the waste

water charges relate only to those who are connected to the town wastewater management scheme.” Mr Ralph said plans for Pinnaroo’s industrial development have been “shelved” due to it not being viable. “That’s been identified in our draft annual business plan as something which we just can’t afford to proceed with,” he said. “There is no real demand

for it from developers or new businesses, so we don’t to intend to incur an expense we can’t justify.”

There is no real demand for it. We don’t intend to incur an expense we can’t justify.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR Miffed over another cat disappearance A FEW weeks ago I purchased a “replacement� kitten for the cat that I had lost. I bought her from the Berri Vet Clinic Cat/Kitten Adoption Program and she was desexed, microchipped and healthy as I am a responsible cat owner and love my pets dearly. She too disappeared last Friday. And in search of her, I discovered that our neighbour on the next block has had four cats/kittens go missing in as many months. What’s going on? I was heartbroken to lose one cat but now my kitten too! If someone was a vendetta against cats or takes them to steal their coats, think about the owners who are left in despair and wondering whether their beloved feline family members are alive, suffering, mutilated or dead. I just pray that my cats, and others that are also missing, are at peace. But more than anything, I just want them back. Tahnia Brown, Renmark North.

Why and how do pets become lost? FIRSTLY, when one loses a pet is can be quite heartbreaking but one must question why and how did the pet become lost? I have two border collies and I have gone to great expense to make sure they do not leave my property, outside of special fencing and training, I have to register my pets and I also have microchipping done as an extra precaution. It was nice to see that one own-

er had their cat microchipped but went on to say that they let them outside to run free. This is where I have a problem. Why don’t you build a cattery which is attached to your house, or look on the internet to see how you can make your backyard secure to keep your cat in? Why is it that cat owners and some dog owners have the ‘let them run free’ mentality? This will always lead to grief not only for the owners but also for people who don’t have pets (as the one lady who said about cats making a ruckus and sleeping in her shadehouse). Please show responsibility when you own a pet and do the right thing by them and your neighbors and your heartache won’t be so bad. Gavin Abraham, Blanchetown.

Not the first time Berri has two surgeons I WOULD like to correct your article (Riverland Regional Hospital recruits second surgeon, June 28) about the Riverland Hospital and that it is the first time two surgeons have worked side by side at the hospital. We had two previous surgeons in Dr John Nettlefold and Dr Arnold Seglenieks who worked together for many years at the Berri Hospital. Perhaps Mr Joyner of Country Health SA gave you the wrong information. Marg Jennings, Berri.

Questions over 3.9 per cent rate rise WELL, IT’S that time of year again

when our local councils leak out specific details of what rate increases we can expect over and above last year in percentage and dollar terms (or do they?). I have been listening to the radio and reading the local papers and from that one would glean that rates will only increase by 3.9 per cent (double CPI) in the Berri Barmera Council area and curiously the fee for parking in a tram lane or a tram track – neither of which exist in Berri or Barmera – will rise by 3 per cent to $232. Being a founding committee member of the Berri Barmera Ratepayers Association, it has always been my charter to see that all council information is delivered to the public in a clear and transperant manner, so the young and elderly alike can see at a glance what increases will be incurred over and above the previous year. One would think that was not too much to ask, surely, as I always thought our local council was there to serve the people. Berri Barmera Council will be introducing, at some point throughout the year, a three bin collection and disposal system for town residents of $195 and a two bin collection system for rural residents of $165 for a full year of service and pro rata for part of. The bin collection fee will no longer come under rates but will now appear as a service fee (like sewage charges) on our rates notices, leaving the increases to rates at only 3.9 per cent. Surprise, surprise. Listed are four different capital value (CV) residential ratings so readers will see at a glance the percentage increase over and above last year’s bottom line, including the three bin disposal system for town residents for a full year of operation.

Along with total dollar increases to the bottom line, which includes a $48 increase to sewage, rates are now up to $665 per year. $120,000 CV = + 33 per cent ($267.36) $150,000 CV = + 27 per cent ($273.45) $250,000 CV = + 17.74 per cent ($293.75) $350,000 CV = + 13.72 per cent ($314.05) As you can see, the increases are quite alarming and I strongly believe the general public have well and truly hit the wall as far as absorbing any more increases to their bottom line. Councils should get back to providing the basic services, being roads, footpaths, sewage and waste management. Everything else needs to be closely looked at, with more ‘user pays’ to fit in these large ticket items. The last time I did a rate comparison of my rates with a property of the same capital valuation as mine in Renmark Paringa, I found I was paying over 100 per cent more. So my conclusion is that Berri Barmera Council has plenty of room to move to reduce their rates and lessen the impact of their proposal to ratepayers. David Moritz, Berri.

No reward for recycling I CAN only whole heartily agree with Stephen Lynch about the three R’s in dealing with our waste/recycling. The only way council deals with this are the rates to go up for ratepayers.

My bin goes out twice a year at the most and has always been the case. So far I have not come across a suggestion or an announcement that there is a reward for this. This problem will only grow to be bigger and bigger and the cost will just keep going up and up. Stephen also comes up with a list of solutions that are all possible and available in our area, which will, in the end, pay for itself. Cost doesn’t come in to this as we are the custodians of this earth. And all citizens will have a chance to learn the value of ‘keeping Australia beautiful’ and healthier. Corry Spronk, Barmera.

Lend a hand THE Lameroo Regional Community School is located over 100 kilometres from the nearest Woolworths or Coles. As such, it is a little hard to pop into these stores and receive points for the Learn and Earn Program (run by Woolworths) or the Sports in Schools Program (run by Coles). We are asking you, the reader, for assistance. If you shop at Coles or Woolies and have tokens given to you and you don’t have a school to support, why not support us. We would be very grateful if you could post your dockets to us at 1 Bews Terrace, Lameroo, SA 5302. These dockets will help our country school purchase learning aids and sporting equipment; things all schools can put to good use. We hope that you all can dig deep and lend a hand to a country school. Kurt Miegel, Lameroo Regional Community School.

Maintaining your garden

transformation

MAINTAINING the home garden in winter is vital, according to a local business. Renmark based Tubs Landscaping Supplies owner ‘Tub’ Martin said many people leave gardens to their own devices during the colder months. “In winter people let weeds grow but if they sprayed them every few weeks, there is a lot less work to do in the long run,� he said. Mr Martin said July is an ideal time to prune roses and spray for black spots. With more than 16 years of experience in garden maintenance, Tubs Landscaping Supplies can provide a number of services including commercial and domestic lawn mowing, yard clean-ups, weeding, trimming, pruning and general garden work. The business also offers landscaping and can provide landscaping supplies and delivery across the Riverland. If your garden is in need of maintenance or a makeover, call Tubs Landscaping Supplies today on 0438 374 655.

Plant placing is everything THE harsh climate of the Riverland with its soaring summer heat makes the Riverland a challenging area for gardeners. However kevin and Jacinta at Lotsa Pots have 45 years of experience between them growing plants successfully in the Riverland. Kevin said the secret to growing plants in the region is to have a well planned garden placing the right plants in the right spot to create a garden with lasting results. Kevin also added that selecting acclimatised plants is very important for the Successful Riverland gardener. Kevin and Jacinta delight in transfoming backyards and are passionate about making beautiful gardens both achievable and more affordable for all.

GARDENING WITH Andrew Walladge

Is it really worth growing fruit trees? A FRIEND recently asked me the question, is it really worth growing fruit trees considering the rising cost of water and all the associated bother with pruning, fertiliser, pest control and then keeping off birds and the like from eating your harvest? My answer in hindsight was probably a little flippant; Why wouldn’t you? Let me explain. If you are in the habit of buying all your food needs in one place and don’t necessarily have the time to consider how far it has come, how it is grown or even how it is treated between the grower and you, you may not be interested. If you are interested in what you feed yourself, your family and friends, you probably are already (or are about to) grow at least some of your food. My “why wouldn’t you� question is more an incredulous “why wouldn’t you want to experience the sheer joy of picking fruit and vegetables and eating them when they are so fresh they are still growing instead of in the process of decay?� The taste should be enough to convince anybody. Moving around the garden

and eating whatever is in season and ripe is just simply the best. The passing of another year is marked by what’s to eat in the garden. For me right now, it’s the apples (Lady William in my case), mandarins and oranges with a child or two in tow looking for pre peeled delights. With pruning not long finished, my mind wanders to a summer day and that first taste of apricots and all my other favourite stone fruits. The thought of eating stuff that has travelled the world and seen the inside of however many warehouses and trucks just does nothing for me. Now is the time to plant bare rooted (without pot or potting soil) deciduous fruit trees, so get digging in preparation. You may wonder why it is an Australian plant enthusiast like me is passionate about fruit. Well, it is quite simple really; with a low maintenance garden dominated by Australian plants I have plenty of time to put into productive fruit trees to provide the most delicious food that my children also enjoy eating. My catchcry to “what can I eat� is “go outside and pick something!�

Reducing electricity costs nance issue as well.� By having an energy efficient home, you could be making major savings when it comes to electricity. Beech Electrical can travel to your door and assess the efficiency of your home. “We get phone calls from time to time where people ask us, ‘I’ve got an electricity bill for $600, why is it so high?’� Mr Beech said. “We offer customers the service where we can go out and have a look at what equipment they’ve got and see if we can help them to reduce some of their electricity accounts.�

Heating and cooling

â– BUSINESS: Beech Electrical is based in Berri with a friendly team to help you with any enquiries.

R

IVERLAND homes will be put under continuing pressure with the rise in electricity prices but there are several ways to reduce your utility bills. Berri based Beech Electrical can offer advice and services to help you make savings on your electricity usage.

Lighting The type of lighting used in your home can make a significant difference to your power bill.

Beech Electrical director Rob Beech said people can save thousands of dollars in the long term by installing energy saving down lights. “A conventional light draws 50 watts of power, whereas an equivalent LED downlight will give you the same lighting level but only draw on nine watts, so there is a fair saving,� he said. “The other advantage is that for a conventional downlight globe, about the best you can get is 6000 hours but with an LED light, they are suggesting you get up to 50,000 hours, so you’ve got that mainte-

Mr Beech said there are a number of other ways to help reduce your power bills, including being smart with your heating during winter. “Instead of setting your airconditioner or heater at 23 degrees, bring it down to 20 degrees and put on some warmer clothes and you’ll find that there will be some savings in that,� he said. “We suggest keeping a diary for the time the airconditioner is used so that you can keep track of the power being used.�

in rooms not being used will also be beneficial towards savings on electricity bills, according to Mr Beech. “In the past people would turn the light on and forget about turning it off, whereas now you go into a room, your turn it on and when you come out of the room, you turn it off,� he said. “They are not that power consuming but if you’ve got half a dozen lights on and they are staying on for five or six hours it all starts to add up. “If you are not using your flat screen televisions or DVD players, turn them off at the power point.� Installing sensor lighting indoors and outdoors could also have a positive impact towards energy efficiency. “If you’ve got external lights, rather than turning them on when you go out because you want to have that light on when you come home, put a scanner on it so that when you go out it

turns on and you can see your way to your car and when you come home it turns on, so you can see your way back into the house,� Mr Beech said. It is not just domestic electricity bills which are rising but commercial businesses are also effected. Mr Beech said replacing old fluro lights is one way for a business to reduce energy contributions. At Beech Electrical, the friendly team can offer advice on how to make your home more energy efficient as well as many other services including installing safety switches, smoke alarms, home automation, tagging and testing and the installation of security cameras. “The suggestions we’ve made in this column are designed to try and help reduce your electricity account,� Mr Beech said. So to help reduce your power bill, contact Beech Electrical today on 8582 2900.

Musical Society to perform Grease THE Riverland Musical Society’s 2012 production of Grease begins on Saturday. All performances will take place at Renmark’s Chaffey Theatre due to ongoing refurbishments at the society’s normal venue of the Bonney Theatre, Barmera. The popular musical will run over two weekends at the Chaffey Theatre with peformances on Saturday at 2pm and 8pm, Sunday at 2pm and the following Saturday at 8pm and Sunday at 2pm. Grease director Mark

Skewes said the Bonney Theatre is well known as the musical society’s “home base” but is looking forward to this year’s production in Renmark. The Berri Barmera Council project at the Bonney Theatre is expected to result in an improved theatre entrance, including better toilet facilities and more space for patrons when arriving for performances. The works should be completed later this year. “It is where people would normally expect to come and see our productions,” he said.

OCATED in Paringa only five kilometres from Renmark, this lovely home is conveniently located within walking distance of the heart of the Paringa town centre and is sure to tick all the boxes for all ages. Inside the home you will find many upgraded features which are a credit to the current owners. Preparing meals for the family will be a delight in the recently renovated kitchen which boasts plenty of cupboards and bench space. Four excellent sized bedrooms all have plush carpet underfoot, ceiling fans and window furnishings. Outside the home you can enjoy the peaceful views of the Paringa wetlands all year round right from the comfort of your rear verandah. The great electricity savings offered by the solar panel system is another added benefit. The shedding will be great for the home handyman with a 20’ x 20’ shed with solid footings and power all ready to go and the fully fenced yard allows kids and pets to play safe all year round.

Internment camp interest continues to grow

IT is now just over 12 months since the Barmera National Trust celebrated 70 years since the first arrival of internees at Camp 9 at Loveday during the early stages of S K TO U World War II. 3PEA BOUT A The members thought TODAY TMENT INVES N SOLAR that we were kept busy makNS O RETUR OWER ing preparations for this ocP cassion but is the response we "#3% &$) 0OWERING THE 2IVERLAND SINCE have had through feedback and donations of historical interest to help open our ever growing museum that has kept us even busier. To follow up on the celebrations was the showing of a segment on Channel Seven’s SA Life programme about the Loveday Internment Camp. This also brought in much more information and donations of artifacts of great interest to add to our collection to be displayed in the BL SR 043370 museum for all to see. Since then we had the misfortune of having the roof blown off the building. Luckily there was no damage to our collection of memorabilia.

REPORT BY

MAX SCHOLZ these documents have never been printed anywhere else because the original owners have stated that this is the very first time that they have shared any of this material. I have been given the right to copy these items for our museum display. Since last year I have been fortunate to have been able to make contact with members of families who stayed with us near camp 14CD during those war years. These people I had not seen since 1946 and they also shared articles relating to the camp.

There is one thing Th that I would like to see and that is more local people becoming involved. d..

Reuniting the long lost freindship is a bonus for me. I have received a large number of letters from people who have a story to tell about the camp. One such story is from the wife of a soldier who was chosen to measure the length of the attempted escape tunnel at Camp 10. He had to take a rope with him so that they could measure its length after completing the crawl to the end of the tunnel. I also have a copy of his discharge papers. I have had the pleasure of showing this wonderful part of the camp history to some organisations locally. There has also been an ever increasing interest from schools to obtain informatoin from our branch. We had a man and his two daughters from Tasmania come to visit. Ernst is a German man of 97 years of age and was interned in Sydney and taken to Camp 10 at Loveday.

The bulk of those at that time in Camp 10 were one eyed Nazi supporters, which Ernst was not. There was ill feeling between those Nazis and other Germans and because of this disharmony, these few men were transferred to Camp 14A, where they stayed until their final release. Ernst and his daughters were very impressed with what we, at the National Trust, had to show them. Since their return to Tasmania, we have received copies of Ernst’s documents of internment, his health records and his final release papers. This trip was one of the final places Ernst wanted to visit to show his two girls, where he spent the war years I spoke to a Barmera Primary School class who have now done a project on the Loveday Internment Camp. I have also had requests from other places about children wanting information about the camps to do a project at their school. Students have been taken out to the old camp area to give them an idea of the size of the camps and then on to the Cobdogla Irrigation and Steam Museum. To finish off the tour, the students are shown my private collection of letters and other items of interest. I will maintain my collection while I am still here but it will eventually go to our local National Trust for safe keeping. There is one thing that I would like to see and that is more local people becoming involved in preserving a valuable part of history. New members of the National Trust would be more than welcome to join us as we try and promote our district. The younger generation is now becoming more interested in our history since the 1900s. On behalf of the Barmera National Trust, we would like to thank the Riverland Weekly for the support in our quest to promote a small part of our local history. We need to encourage more tourists to come to the Riverland so we can show what we have on offer for them.

RIVERLAND INDEPENDENTS - ROUND TWELVE THE OTHER GAMES

MATCH OF THE ROUND

Ramco v Lyrup AFTER proving a point with an upset thrashing of undefeated BSR last round, Ramco will be looking to put a dent in Lyrup’s finals chances. The Roosters are starting to build some important momentum and while a top two finish still seems unlikely at this stage, anything could happen. Hit hard with injury, Lyrup is still battling but realistically needs to beat either Ramco or BSR in the next two rounds to guarantee itself a finals berth. It is expected that Ramco will go unchanged into this match, while in a

big blow, Lyrup will be without Jason Marr for two matches as he is away. Bradley Healy and Allan Penola will also return for the Lions, while Ken Karpany is likely to play despite being sore. At centre half forward Max Baddack has been a defender’s nightmare booting 21 goals in the past two outings. Lyrup may need to sacrifice parttime ruckman Tom Smith to spoil another Baddack bag of goals. The loss of Marr in the midfield will certainly be felt, with Simon Sumner needing to fill the hole against the likes of Daniel Donnelly and Marcus Mcgrath. Ramco coach Andrew Bevan said

last round’s win against top team BSR shows what his team is capable of. “We were just first to the ball all day,” he said. “It won’t change our position on the ladder but psychologically when it comes finals time, the win is huge.” Lyrup coach Shane Healy said “it is not going to be easy” with low player availability. “We are really struggling for numbers,” he said. It is a big game for the Lions, who will be hoping to maintain their percentage. Given Ramco’s previous performances, the Roosters should be convincing winners over Lyrup by more than 10 goals.

BLANC BLANCHETOWN Swan Reach coach Peter Zadow was bitterly disappointed about the way his team performed during its 90 point loss to Ramco on the weekend, which saw it relinquish first position on the ladder. From all accounts, the Bulldogs are still struggling for consistent numbers. Dale Payne was missing from BSR’s shock loss on the weekend with back troubles and should return this round, although he is likely to be rested if it is still an issue. Jamie Tanner is another inclusion and Greg Sobey may play, while Sam Sobey has injured his knee. The BSR defence is certainly vulnerable lacking talls and could be exploited by Wunkar with quick footed Ian Worsfold and strong marking Lincoln Evans up forward. Zadow said his team needs to respond to last weekend’s loss very quickly. “It is important the boys get back into winning and regaining that confidence,” he said. BSR will show why it is the team to beat in this competition with a thumping victory over Wunkar.

THE OTHER GAMES

Cobdogla v MoorookKingston PERCENTAGE may be the difference between finishing in and out of the top four and Cobdogla will be hoping for a huge win against an undermanned Moorook-Kingston. It was a forgettable day for the Warriors against Brown’s Well, with just 16 players on the field after losing Michael Svendsen to what appears to be a season ending knee injury. The Eagles are a genuine chance for a finals position after a mighty win over Wunkar and are unlikely to

be tested this round. Experienced forward Troy Dawson should be back for Cobdogla, along with defender Mitch Winen, while the Warriors are hoping to include Matt Raison, Ash Boatswain, Mark Plew, Ben Nispel and Daniel Clarke in this weekend’s team. Key midfielder Kenny Wright is in doubt with injury. The Warriors have worked hard with Joe Abdulla in defence, Brett Smith in ruck and Matt Cooper in the midfield. Dylan Clarke and Aaron Thompson have been stand-outs for Cobdogla. Moorook-Kingston coach Cecil Rigney said he is hopeful he can put a team together but admits the situ-

ation will be reviewed tonight. “The guys that are going out there are giving it a red hot crack,” Rigney said. “But the commitment is not there from some of these blokes. “We’ve got to really consider whether we want to go through the same situation as we did on Saturday.” Cobdogla coach Brad Gillespie said his team can sense a potential finals finish. “I think there is a little bit of belief that we are now a chance to finish in the top four,” he said. There is no doubt that Cobdogla will win this game by 100 plus points but let’s hope the Warriors can get a team together.

PARINGA remains unfazed by the need to finish minor premiers, despite again rising to the top of the competition on the weekend. The Tigers are coming off the bye but have had another season of inconsistent performances. There has been a lot of reliance on Chris Rudiger and Kenneth Dixon, while East Murray would be hoping Zak Schubert can return to form following injury. Paringa is likely to welcome back Nick Carr but will be without Wade Simpson. With injuries to key forwards, Swans coach Arrod Westley decided to make some changes last round with Mick Miller moving forward to boot five goals. He is likely to lineup in the same position again this round. Westley said the Swans are aiming to finish in the top two but he is not concerned if they do not finish minor premiers. “We can’t afford to drop anymore games though,” he said. Adding home ground advantage to the equation, Paringa will have no problems accounting for East Murray.

MALLEE FOOTBALL LEAGUE MATCH OF THE ROUND

Lameroo v Murrayville MURRAYVILLE is starting to build and a win against Lameroo would be a likely ticket into the finals. Lameroo were disappointing in a loss to lowly Peake but should return to form this round. The Hawks will be sweating on the outcome of a tribunal hearing for Vaughan Noonan.

Peake v BDT EVERY player, official and supporter of Mallee football would have been shocked with Border Downs Tintinara losing last round. Only time will tell whether the Crows are still vulnerable? Peake produced a surprise win over Lameroo to keep it in the finals hunt. The introduction of former AFL footballer Salim Hassan has certainly added

What is most encouraging is that coach Shaun Walker is returning to his best. However, he may duel with the tireless Michael Worsman and Andrew Purchase and Todd Jones should be another intersting tussle. The Hawks need more goals from scoring opportunities with Josh Ridgway and Ricky Hunter the most likely forwards.

Murrayville has a very potent attack with Trent Sporn and Daniel Fry booting 18 goals between them last round. James Lange is also dangerous. Realistically Lameroo should win this contest but Murrayville is probably the better team form wise at the moment. We are tipping the Bulldogs to cause an upset in a close match.

GAME TWO some depth for Peake, while Travis Carling and Rick Berling have worked hard in the midfield. Caine Lynn booted seven goals for the Saints last round and has had support from Jeff Lines and Trent Wingard. Lee Slape is likely to get the job on Lynn, which should be a big test for the Peake forward. Bennett Pickering is likely to match up on Kevin Kock. There are some injury

concerns for BDT with Josh Keller, Josh Richardson, Mark Vandeleur and Jarred Brock all in doubt for this clash. However, Patrick Barrett and Chris Gregory will return for the Crows. There is still plenty of strength there for BDT but the loss of key players may make this game closer than expected. Despite injury concerns, it is still hard to tip against the mighty powerhouse that is BDT.

missed, while it is unknown when Anthony Lippis will return from injury. Chad Nickolls has been reliable in the ruck and will compete against the experience of Lucas Neumann and Josh Rudiger this round. Tyron Bennetts has been one of the recruits of the season but will face strict opposition from Ben Quinn, Zakk Bullard and Corey Knight in the middle. Karoonda defender

Daniel Thiele may match up on Leith Dabinett which should be a big challenge for the Pinnaroo forward. The Magpies will welcome back Luke Hocking and Shane Harte this round in a major boost. Boasting the second best defence and attack in the competition, Karoonda should easily account for Pinnaroo which is ranked last in both attack and defence.

BOTH teams recorded important wins last round and each will be hoping to make it two victories in a row. Waikerie really showed why it is one of the flag favourites with a spirited team effort to defeat the previously undefeated Barmera-Monash. On the other hand, Loxton has been improving each week and earned a deserved victory over Renmark. The Tigers may be strengthened by the return of a number of players including Pat Portolesi who has been having back problems, Wade Pritchard, Bryn Zerna, Jacob Harris and Mitch Fazekas. Waikerie will include Craig Underwood and Jim Thomson in the team, while big man Craig Miller and Shayne Stevens are outs. For Loxton, players like Josh Norman,

Michael Kirk, Jarrod Milich, Jarrad Collinson and Craig Fisher in the ruck, have found form. Jamahl Liddle will continue to be a problem for defences across the league but will have a tough challenge against Steven Braun. Waikerie relies on its small forwards such as Tim Bevan to deliver a winning score. Loxton coach Mick Zerna said he is pleased with his team’s continual improvement. “All the senior blokes are standing up and doing their bit,� he said. “We certainy won’t give Waikerie a start like we did last time.� Magpie co-coach Craig Griffiths said beating the Roos last round was satisfying. “We were very happy with the way we finished the game,� he said. Waikerie is the form team of the competition and may give Loxton a football lesson if the Tigers are not switched on.

All of the Riverland and Mallee football news, views and rumours IT was certainly a round of upsets last weekend with the top team in the Riverland, Independent and Mallee competitions all losing. We would like to know the last time that happened all in the one round. BAD news for Renmark’s Trevor Thorpe and Berri’s Kirk Harwood who will miss the rest of the season through injury. Renmark coach Brett Blackwell said Thorpe’s injury was one of the worst he has seen. RUMOUR is that Chris Bonney will return this weekend to play for BarmeraMonash. BROWN’S Well will unfortunately lose big man Matt Ham-

have proven that experience counts for Loxton. Jacob Harris may also get an A grade call up after his recent good form. Waikerie should beat Loxton by 100 plus points. A win for Renmark against bottom placed Berri is likely to advance it into third position. The Rovers have been exceptional in recent weeks after a slow start to the season with big man James Bentley, Denny Murphy and Nick Milich solid

a really good test, according to Loxton North coach Craig Wooldridge. “It’s probably not the best time to get them after a loss but we will be going in confident,� he said. “On the weekend (against Berri) we showed what we can do moving forward.� Barmera-Monash should return to its winning ways with a six goal victory.

RFL B GRADE WAIKERIE still leads the charge for this year’s premiership after beating second ranked Barmera-Monash by 34 points last round. Up against Loxton, it is unlikely the Magpies will have any trouble. Competition leading goalkicker Steve Hefford has shaken most defences, while Steve Leibich and Rob Smyth have been good. Defender Mal Hahn and coach Russ Charles

BERRI’S Martin Barber returned from a lengthy stint on the sidelines last round for a run in the B grade. While pulling up sore, from all accounts he is just about ready to slot back into the A grade after he booted four goals.

WITH what is being described as Loxton North’s most settled team for the season so far, the Panthers will fancy themselves a chance to knock off highly placed Barmera-Monash. Loxton North proved that it is still a force to be reckoned with after a 41 point win over Berri on the weekend, while Barmera-Monash was surprised by a determined Waikerie. Both teams have strong midfields with Ryan Proud, Jamie Ferguson and Tim Arnold all having consistent seasons, while Dillon Millard, Jake Smith and Sam Elliott have put in a number of good performances. Corey Hanna is unavailable and will be missing from this weekend’s team for Barmera-Monash, while Brodie Jennings returns. There is also speculation that Chris Bonney may lineup for the Roos this round.

For Loxton North, defender Jeremy Vowles will be back into the team. There are some exciting potential match-ups this weekend, with Ryan Proud and Dillon Millard to duel in the middle, captain Josh Nelson against the experience of Michael Smart and Murray Middleton battling against underrated defender Anton Cook. Barmera-Monash coach Lyndon Burns said last round’s loss was a result of a really off day. “Don’t take anything away from Waikerie, they were really switched on,� he said. “The one positive we took from it was that we had 12 players down on form. “I don’t think that will happen again this year.� He said the Roos will be wanting to return to their best this weekend. “We really should come out and respond,� Burns said. “Loxton North are the premiers of last year so we’ve got to give them our full respect.� This match should be

THERE is no doubt that Renmark is desperate for a win. Up against Berri, who has been struck by injuries, the Rovers may have a chance. However, Renmark has also been impacted by injury with captain Trevor Thorpe seriously injuring his thumb in an incident being described as “gruesome�. He is likely to face surgery this week and will not take any further part this season. Renmark lost to bottom placed Loxton last round, while Berri went down to Loxton North at home. Reece Glazbrook should come into the Rovers’ team for Thorpe with Ben Wagnitz and James Bentley, who have been playing reserves, to be considered for selection. Aaron Camplin will also require a fitness test to regain his place. For Berri, the injury list is mounting with Steven Raeder and Daniel Haines out of the team with big news that Kirk Harwood will miss the remainder of the season requiring surgery. However, the Demons have got some inclusions with Andrew Hume, Lachlan Jennings, Jamie Milburn and

potentially Martin Barber likely to return. Aaron Gepp, who has been one of the recruits of the year in the RFL, will have a very important contest with Nathan Farr in ruck, while Adam Bryant and Adam Beauchamp will be looking for centre clearances. Watch out for Steven Pitt, who has been playing through the midfield and Craig Seekamp is always dangerous for the Rovers, as is David Hankin for the Demons. Renmark coach Brett Blackwell said last weekend’s loss to Loxton was “pretty hard to swallow�. “We are playing good catch up footy but that doesn’t win you games,� he said. “We need to hit them hard with everything we’ve got. “It’s a do or die game for us.� Bad kicking is the problem area for the Demons, according to coach Alby Brand. “When we were playing good footy early, it was through our running game,� he said. Brand said injuries to key personnel are almost impossible to cover and therefore juniors have been given experience at the top level. It is hard to see Berri losing another match to a team below it, especially when it still has plenty of talent on the field. Berri should beat Renmark by four goals.

CHARLIE’S SPORTS GOSS WITH GRAHAM CHARLTON

Local golfers part of victorious Mount Lofty team

■ “WE ARE now playing against the big boys next year. “Travelling to play with Mount Lofty for six seasons has paid off”. Those were the words of Loxton golfer Ramon Thorne (pictured) earlier this week after he had been a member of the victorious Mount Lofty team that defeated West Lakes 4.5 to 2.5 in the final of the state A2 Pennant competition last Sunday. Ramon has been joined at the city club by another Loxton member Kym Rivett this year for the first time and both players won their matches in Sunday’s contest. The victory elevates Mount Lofty to top level in the Simpson Cup in 2013. “Both Kym and I intend to return for next season,” Ramon said.

Schubert duo impress at volleyball championships ■ LOXTON brother and sister Zachery and Simone Schubert have just returned from representing state teams in the under 19 Australian Volleyball Championships in Melbourne and added medals to their luggage for the journey home. Simone captained the girls team to a win over Victoria in the final to claim gold medals, while Zachery was a member of the boys side that defeated Western Australia for bronze. Both results reversed the outcome of matches against the same opponents on the previous day. In fact, the girls team had lost its first game of the tournament against the Victorians.

Picking a winning horse is not rocket science ■ I HAVE said previously that I have never been a student of the thoroughbred industry despite having a long, enjoyable involvement with some local syndicates racing horses. I punt rarely and when I do, it is never scientific but most likely omen based. Perhaps I have been influenced by a work mate in Adelaide in 1974. We travelled the metropolitan area together most days and my colleague, who was very much a once a year punter with absolutely no regular interest in the ‘neddies’, became annoyingly adamant that the Think Big liquor advertising campaign that saturated the city’s signage was there to tell us something. I did not see it that way but he did and cleaned up big time on the Melbourne Cup. Lately there have been suggestions closer to home that picking a winner does not have to come from rocket science. It seems a couple of racing ‘tragics’ whose opinions are respected because of their studies on breeding, trainers, jockeys, weights, distances, tracks, conditions, starts, and a host of other factors, were reportedly well and truly upstaged by a lady in their company while having a punt recently. I understand the woman involved is also not a student of the game but that it was she that turned a number of small gold coin investments into a very tidy sum by putting her faith in any horse where its name, or that of its jockey, contained the letter ‘z’. Now that makes perfect sense to me.

Barmera’s Gai Barrett was the nett winner with 111.5.

on hole six and long drives belonged to Anne Greenfield on hole nine and Chris Fridd on hole 14. In local competitions at Waikerie during last week, Sid Copeland won a stableford on a count back from Vince King with both on 39 points, while Kym Hudson won Saturday’s division one stroke competition with a score of 84/66. Also on Saturday at Berri, Peter Fisher took out a stableford with 41 points, followed by Mark Evans and Rob Chabrel with 37 and Mark Wundenberg with 36. Craig Clarke finished square and Danny Halupka completed the course one under in a par event on Sunday.

Riverland players in state academy team ■ MURRAY Academy under 13, under 15 and under 17 netball teams finished in fourth, fifth and sixth positions respectively in the 2012 Regional Academy Carnival in Adelaide held last Wednesday and Thursday. The under 13 team won three games against Spencer, Lower North and Eyre and drew two matches against Mount Lofty and Southern before going down to Northern in a semi-final by three goals. Renmark’s Emma-May Ellis was named in the competition’s top ten players announced after the tournament. In under 15s, Murray had two players, Loxton North’s Marlee George and Renmark’s Sophie Croft, named in the state academy team for the age group after winning two and drawing one game in the six match round robin competition. Another promising Loxton North A1 player, Erika Sporn, also made the combined side after the under 17s won three matches. The fact that the local zone’s under 17 team finished in sixth position is a reflection of the exceptional talent that exists in junior ranks across country South Australia as many of our girls are already playing at top senior level in their own associations.

It has been pointed out that many of the Murray players were at the lower end of their age divisions this year, so it will be interesting to see the results in 2013 if these girls return for another carnival. Meanwhile, the Riverland competitions recommence this weekend after a week’s break and the A1 matches, Renmark at home to Berri and Loxton North against Barmera at the Loxton Stadium, appear to pose two crucial questions. One, is third placed Berri going to be a genuine threat to Renmark and Loxton come finals time and two, which team out of Loxton North and Barmera will make the major round? The table at present reads a sizzling hot premiership favourite Renmark undefeated on 14 points, Loxton on 12, Berri on 8, Barmera on 2 and Loxton North yet to register a point. We have said it repeatedly, new look Renmark’s seemingly endless array of talent ensures business as usual but as the season has unfolded, Tegan Moldovan, Tori Brown, Nicole Hall, Taylee Howard, Ellee Eleftheriadis and company have done enough to indicate that better things may be to come for Berri. With only one complete round of matches remaining in

the minor round after this week, the result of the game at Barmera is crucial. The home side will start favourites on the recent good form of Sheri Beech, Cobie Drogemuller and Alice Kelsh but the Loxton North juniors like Erika Sporn, Marlee George and Tara Learhinan will make it a real contest. Last Saturday’s play in the Independent competition saw Blanchetown Swan Reach defeat Ramco in both grades. Ashleigh Stapleton and Kellie Zadow starred for the A grade in a narrow 45-42 victory, while the B grade won 41-31 with its best players being Lucinda Mallett and Katelyn Giles. For Ramco, Mel Bristoe and Karen Linke were best in the A grade and Jessica Trebilcock and Lisa Norman best in the B grade. In another B grade clash, Cobdogla (Amelia Dyer, Hayley Kreuger) defeated Wunkar (Jo Schultz, Miriam Harris) 29-20. ■ RISING TALENT: Loxton North’s Marlee George has been in good form which was rewarded with a place in the state academy team.

Paddlers enjoy another successful marathon in the Riverland ■ OF THE many major events that come to our region to utilise our splendid climate, river and facilities, the one that really does seem to slip under the radar is the Riverland Paddling Marathon that is held here over the June long weekend. Around 180 craft, including canoes, kayaks, surf skis and outriggers, were in the Riverland for the Marathon Canoe Club of SA’s ‘five in one’ event earlier this month. The weekend included the Murray 200, which is a 208 kilometre three day paddle from Berri to Morgan, a relay over the same course, a Murray 100 involving 93 kilometres over some sections of the long event, a Mini Marathon which is 11 or 12 kilometres on any day and a Single Day Paddle on Sunday, which is 26 kilometres from Devlins Pound to Waikerie. Participation between male and female is around 50/50 with the youngest to take part in 2012 being 12 years of age and the oldest being 73. Recreation classes were also run in conjunction with competitive classes. The paddling weekend that has

■ WORKING HARD: Participants took part in the Riverland Paddling Marathon held in the region last month. been held in our region for 25 consecutive years now, is billed as one of Australia’s premier events of its type and the Murray 200 our state’s leading long distance canoe marathon. I can recall the first year of the then titled Murray/200/100 Relay in 1988. It came about through the efforts of legendary paraplegic paddler Ron Bath and I seem to remember interviewing him on a Saturday morning sports radio program. FORTY six paddlers in 32 boats took part.

For Bath the new event would have been like a training paddle as he had already completed the length of the Mississippi. Some of the big names in canoeing have returned time and again for this event, including Victorian Bill Robinson who has completed the Murray 200 for 20 consecutive years. Robinson would not have much trouble with the Riverland event as in 2001, aged 61, he rowed the 2000 kilometre length of the River Murray in five weeks.

“However, with a Half Murray Man being held also, probably 400 will compete overall.” Bartlett emphasised that the Barmera event would be all about age group competitors with the elite athletes involved in their own open competitions around the country. Barmera’s full Murray Man includes a two kilometre swim, 80 kilometre bike ride and 20 kilometre run. And it is not just about Sunday, as on Saturday, the weekend gets underway with a host of activities that locals can join in, with an emphasis on ‘come and try’.

â– RISING STARS: Riverland junior soccer talent will be on show in Mount Gambier in August.

■THE Riverland Soccer Association has applied to hold the 2013 State Country Junior Championships with the new Bruce Oval complex at Barmera a likely venue. President Bill Bucon said “we have done our homework and have most of the arrangements in place ready to go, so we are keen to stage it here�. “Port Pirie has also expressed interest in holding it as well.� Meanwhile, Riverland teams will attend the 2012 tournament on August 18

At interassociation level negotiations are still continuing regarding the Tri State Challenge that was to be held between Riverland, Sunraysia and Broken Hill on Sunday, July 22. In turn, the other two associations advised that date was unsuitable but Bill said “we have pencilled in playing Sunraysia at Loxton on September 23 but now that things have changed we will get back to Broken Hill again to see whether they are interested too�.

The Sunday before that, September 16, the Top Four Interstate Cup between the top sides in the Riverland and Sunraysia will be played in Mildura. In the local competition, matches are at Berri on Sunday with the Berri versus Barmera clash in senior men crucial to either sealing the premiership for Rangers or keeping Barmera’s slender hopes of retaining its title alive. In the other game a back to form Renmark Olympic takes on Loxton United.

Crucial hockey matches as finals approach ■HOCKEY teams will resume 2012 activities at Glassey Park this weekend with the A grade seeing Berri taking on Loxton on Friday night and on Saturday, Renmark playing Waikerie. In their last outings, both Berri A grade teams in mens and womens showed further improvement with spirited performances against Renmark. Scott Moldovan, Ash Roberts, Tony Halupka and Anthony Segui in the men’s team and Jen Kiel, Kris Weir, Kira McMahon, Emma Gould, and Ada Walladge in the

women’s are all playing well in their club’s rebuild season. But they face an extremely tough task tomorrow night as Loxton’s two reigning champion teams were superb a fortnight ago in the face of a definite challenge from Waikerie. Not always at full strength, the Loxton men had goalkeeper Daniel Schubert, Steve Trezise, Ty Othams, Sean Burgess and Nathan Fielke at their best, while the women boast enormous depth in Billie-Jo Hammerstein, Steph Baird, Eloise Hampel, Tara

Allister and company. Renmark would be pleased that both A grade teams were back in the winner’s circle last time. Callum Benda, Brett Stokes, Danial Shawyer, Shaun Crouch and Danielle Weeks, Ally Palat, Sally Giles and Juliet Mallinson are as good as they come. But on Saturday they face Waikerie teams that will be determined to put the performances against Loxton behind them. The Waikerie men are also at full strength when their Adelaide

based players are available but a large pool of talent including Brenton Kroehn, Michael Camilleri, Shaun Pick, Jason Redemski and Caleb Catford, has seen them mentioned freely in discussions on pennant favourites. The Waikerie women also boast some consistent performers in Kristen Pick, Carlye Waye, goal scorer Amelia Harkness, Janine Frost and Zoe Liebich. Saturday’s matches should be close with the results perhaps a guide to the chances of the two clubs come finals time.

Entries for eightball tournament already exceeding 300 ■WITH entries already exceeding 300, tournament director of the annual Berri Resort Hotel Open Eightball Singles Championship Neil Lemmey considers that the number of players at this year’s event on July 20 to 22, will exceed the 2011 figure of 357 and could possibly edge towards 400. This is the 25th anniversary of the event considered the biggest and richest of its type in South Australia and Lemmey has added a few new features to the format that he has developed over all of those years for the milestone occasion. On Friday night, the normal two invitation and two restricted knockout events will be followed by 36 eight player mini competitions with starting times of 10pm and midnight. All of those events will be held at the Berri Resort Hotel but on Saturday that will not be the only venue used as with the number of games to be played, the Berri, Cobdogla, Lyrup, Mo-

nash, Renmark and Barmera Hellenic clubs will also be part of the action. On Saturday night at the Berri Resort Hotel, it is expected that as many as 16 previous winners of the open will be acknowledged at a special ceremony. Then on Sunday, all finals are at the hotel. Excellent viewing areas are provided to watch some of Australia’s outstanding eightballers chase a share of the prize money.

LOSING the Wimbledon boys’ singles final to Canadian Filip Peliwo has not deterred Riverland tennis sensation Luke Saville. After showing compsure in the first game, Saville was unable to match the speed and verocity of Peliwo on the grass court going down 7-5, 6-4. In the first set Savile led 5-2 before Peliwo won the next five games and never looked back. Despite the loss, Saville is looking to the bigger picture. “It wasn’t to be today,� Saville wrote on his Facebook fan page. “I played a well below par match today, however, I will give full credit to my oppo-

Nickolai stands out at shoot ■TARGETS at last Sunday’s Loxton Field and Game 75 Target Sporting Clays Championship demanded concentration by the 37 shooters involved from the first target to the last. Competitors came from as far away as Adelaide but although he only won the A grade by one target from Adelaide’s John Monaghan, Loxton’s Kevin Nickolai stood out from the rest in a seemingly casual display that blitzed the competition. Nickolai was all class with his silky smooth skills seeing him destroy all but 10 targets on the course for a win with the top score of the day, 65/75. Posting 22/25 in the opening round, Nickolai increased the pressure on his opponents with a perfect 25/25 in round two and brought it home with 18/25. In the AA grade, Renmark-Berri pair Tony Trevorrow, 57/75, and Haydn Brown, 50/75, dominated, while in the lower grades several lead changes during the day kept everyone guessing as to which shooter would be in front when the final shot was fired. Rod Saligari (Adelaide) won C grade with 56/75, ahead of Rick Gibbs (Loxton) 49/75. Jo Brown (Renmark-Berri), 45/75, took out the C grade from Adelaide’s Bryant Stokes, 49/85.

first five rounds. “Today didnt work out well, however, it was still a decent effort to make the final. “It’s now time to put juniors behind me and start working on the career that really counts, my men’s career.� Saville is expected to return home to the Riverland for a week before heading to China to compete in two challenger events. He said there is plenty of hard work ahead of him to convert his number one junior ranking into a high standing men’s rank. “Hopefully by the time the 2013 Australian Open is around, my ranking will be good enough to get me direct into the main draw,� he said.

Barmera’s triathlon now national event

SAVILLE’S GREATER GOAL

By GRAHAM CHARLTON AFTER several weeks of negotiations with Triathlon Australia, the 2012 Murray Man event to be held at Barmera’s Lake Bonney in November has been upgraded. Adelaide Triathlon Club president Andrew Bartlett said the Murray Man event will be the National Age Group Long Course Triathlon Championships. Bartlett explained that the Barmera event will be part of an eight race series being held across Australia. “The age group winners at Barmera will be the Australian Champions,” he said. “It is to be a one off championship race. “On the other hand, competitions in the eight

event series will accumulate points towards selection in the Australian team to compete in the world titles in France next year. “An added attraction for the Murray Man is that being the championship event, it will offer double points.” Almost 140 triathletes took part in the inaugural Murray Man in 2011 but anticipating a significant increase in registrations this year, organisers initially capped entries at 300. “The national body wanted this lifted to 400,” Bartlett said. “We felt that was too many to handle so we agreed on a 350 compromise. ■ Continued Page 26
