was not initially included in a list of community forums being held across regional South Australia. “There was never a fixed list for these meetings and we are consult-

ing widely as we see fit,” Mr Robinson said. “We recognise the importance of the Riverland and that’s why we’re coming.” Mr Robinson said the Riverland is “one of South Australia’s key regions” and believes it is important the community is able to provide input into the rebranding of the state. “It is very important that our

brand reflects the real South Australia and the only way we can do that is by talking to people on the ground and finding out from them what it is that is important and unique about South Australia that we want to project to the world,” he said. “We want to get input into the branding process from the Riverland.”

EDITORIAL by

Late decision to visit region MEMBERS of the Economic Devlopment Board are in the Riverland today to hold a forum on rebranding South Australia. The Riverland appeared to be a late inclusion to a regional community forum list, which of course, had names like Barossa and Clare Valley penned in without hesitation. It seems ironic however, that we find out the board is holding a forum in the Riverland just days after Premier Jay Weatherill was in town. He was asked about why the Riverland had missed out on hosting a forum considering it is a key fruit growing area for the state. The Premier was just as confused as the rest of the community to be told there was no meeting planned. So whatever happened, it is good that the region is getting a chance to have its say on the rebranding of South Australia, albeit by invitation only. If anything, the Riverland needs to be rebranded itself and maybe those in attendance at today’s meeting in Berri can take some pointers about the State Government’s approach.

Race for Futures Funding THE race is on for access to the final $10.1 million of the $20 million Riverland Sustainable Futures Fund. Eighteen expressions of interest seeking a total of around $16.5 million were invited to lodge a full application, with $10.1 million remaining in the fund. “Applications are undergoing a careful assessment process by a panel which includes PIRSA and independent advice,” Regional Development Minister Gail Gago said. “Following this assessment, which may require applicants to provide additional information or answer specific queries, PIRSA will make recommendations for my consideration in the coming months regarding each application. “It’s expected that applicants will be advised of the result of their application in the fourth quarter of 2012.”

Whitelion runs a number of programs in the Riverland including the Waikerie Independent Learning Centre and provides an Indigenous parenting program.

Those who apply to the full application stage are not guaranteed access to the fund, according to Minister Gago. “Should the fund not be fully committed following the assessment process, a second round of EOI’s will be called,” she said. “I am advised that PIRSA contacted all unsuccessful appli-

cants during the EOI phase and provided them contact details should they wish to discuss their application.” For the financial years of 2010-11 and 2011-12 there were 37 applications lodged to the fund with 19 approved totalling $9.87 million, creating over 120 full time jobs and generating a total investment of approximately $20.4 million.

THE Riverland Sikh community has condemned the actions of the gunman who shot dead seven people in a Sikh temple in America earlier this month. Riverland Sikh community member and Secretary of the Punjabi Cultural Association of South Australia Harvin-

der Singh said local groups based in Renmark and Glossop have met to discuss the incident. “We condemn those actions as a Riverland Sikh community,” Mr Singh said. “Just to clarify our religion, it is totally different from any other religion and is not connected to anyone.

“In everyday prayer we pray for every human being on Earth. “Any violent action, there is no place for that in our society.” Mr Singh said the local Sikh community gathered following news of the shootings and were saddened to hear of the incident.

hard work and that is assessing more of those applications than she needs. “They’ve missed their opportunity and now with the process being closed off, to me it is just narrow minded and lacks vision for the region. “Having submissions closed off early has disadvantaged some that potentially could have a credible business plan that could benefit the region.” However, Minister Gago said the closing date for applications was clearly advertised on PIRSA’s website as April 30. “Having a cut off date enabled all applications to be assessed at the same time on a competitive basis, rather than when they are received,” she said. “This method of assessment was chosen to capture the best ideas for sustainable development in the Riverland for support under the Riverland Sustainable Futures Fund.”

Region’s fluctuating petrol prices A DIFFERENCE in petrol prices of up to 13 cents per litre between Riverland towns has prompted a warning from the Royal Automobile Association (RAA). As of yesterday, unleaded prices in Loxton had risen up to $1.45, with Waikerie in a similar price bracket, despite Berri and Renmark fuel prices remaining in the early $1.30 range. During last week, selected petrol stations dropped and rose prices by more than 10 cents per litre. RAA senior policy analyst Chris West warned local petrol providers not to pass on the crude oil price rise too quickly. “Loxton retailers need to be careful that they don’t pass on costs too quickly,� he said. “There is a legitimate price increase flowing through but you are not going to attract customers if all of a sudden you spike your price. “If anything it is going to deter people from considering you as an option and they need to take that into account.

“Loxton is a bit ahead of the curve, it is quite evident that retailers have passed on a bit too much cost.� In an unusual trend, petrol stations located close to each other in Riverland towns have also had up to seven cents a litre the difference this week.

Loxton retailers need to be careful they don’t pass on costs too quickly.

Mr West said Renmark has attracted attention from motoring groups across the state for its consistently low prices, currently the lowest in regional South Australia. “For Renmark, they’ve had a pretty lean margin for the past four weeks and it has got our at-

tention and it has got attention from other motoring clubs interstate to say ‘well there are some very good prices going on, we want to know what’s going on in Renmark?’� Mr West said. “Competition is certainly there, it’s the best price in South Australia.� One reason why petrol prices may be cheaper in some towns is an attempt to attract people instore, according to Mr West. “Really the only valid reason for people to be selling prices at such low margins is because they are probably trying to attract you instore with some other buy,� he said. “They make very little margin on fuel, their margin comes from you buying something instore. “What we would be concerned about is if it happened for extended or long periods of time where it forces one of those retailers out of town and therefore harms competition and that means prices are not as competitive going forward.� With petrol prices expected

Hotel rebuild dependent on funding THE size of the Waikerie Hotel Motel rebuild is dependent on funding from the $20 million Riverland Sustainable Futures Fund. Waikerie Hotel Motel Board chairman Graeme Thompson has revealed the future plans of the site, which was severely impacted by fire last year, will be reliant on the funding. “We are purely waiting for an announcement from the Riverland Futures Fund to see how much money we get from them to decide

October.� If the hotel’s application is unsuccessful, Mr Thompson said plans for the rebuild will need to be closely looked at. “We won’t build quite as much, that’s all,� he said.

Currently the hotel board is in negotiations over a potential sale of the Waikerie Golf Club, which it currently owns. “The prospective purchaser is negotiating with council at the moment to see whether they are prepared to deal with him to handle the release program which is there with water,� Mr Thompson said. “Given the fact that our primary business is the hotel and we have to rebuild it, it (the golf club for sale) is a good thing.�

River flows almost six times above normal winter average RIVER Murray flows into South Australia are almost six times higher than regular flow rates at this time of the year, according to the Department of Environment, Water and Natural Resources. Department resource and environmental manager Richard Brown said currently river flows are at about 40,000 megalitres per day.

“Ample flows this time of year would be 6000 to 7000 megalitres per day and that would be considered quite reasonable but it is up about five or six times that,� Mr Brown told the Riverland Weekly. “There is plenty of water about and there is no big flood, no big inundation, it’s just a big steady lump of regional rainfall. “In South Australia

we’ve had some desperate years of drought and whatever, but at the moment, it’s certainly turning the tide. “It’s not going to fix those allocation issues but it’s certainly given the river system a good drink.� Mr Brown said flows are expected to stay between 30,000 and 40,000 megalitres per day for the next two to three weeks.

RENMARK West citrus grower Humphrey Howie knows his future in the industry involves thinking outside of the square. Since 1905, Mr Howie’s family have grown fruit in the Riverland but it was not until 1994 that Mr Howie decided to begin converting citrus trees from traditional management to organic management on his family property. While still facing a number of challenges, being able to pack his own fruit and control a different market sector have been advantages of growing organic fruit. Currently his Renmark West property still has around 15 acres of the 50 acre fruit trees with traditionally managed citrus varieties, while the rest is organic. “Before we were just growers, now we are growers, packers and marketers,” he said. “We have more control over when and where we sell our fruit, we’re not reliant on other people to sell our fruit for us. “Just having that other market and being able to pack our own fruit has made a big difference. “By the time you’d already picked half of your crop, you didn’t know what you are going to get

whereas we tend to pick fruit as it is required, so if there are no markets we don’t pick the fruit. “It just seemed incredibly interesting to try and do things differently.” On top of the organic approach, Mr Howie has also put native trees in between citrus plantings and implemented ways to improve soil health. “Climate change for me is very real and so adding life and carbon into our farm property is one of our aims,” he said. “You can actually have different layers of canopies of various trees and I thought that would fit in a citrus orchard. “Some of our fruit does get sunburn, so I thought perhaps it was something that could shade the fruit.” It was a trial and error situation for Mr Howie, who originally planted a New South Wales species of acacia between the citrus trees, only for it to have too little of a life span. “So I thought what’s something that doesn’t use quite as much water and is a bit more local and I thought about the river cooba, which is the local species that grows along the

river,” he said. “Maybe one day it might be a good source of timber because it has been used in furniture.” Currently Mr Howie has up to three acres with trees between the citrus and is seeing the benefits of extra bird life to keep away pests, benefits to the moisture and minerals in the soil, the trees are water and salinity tolerant and it gives the farm a generally aesthetic look. There is also more potential benefits from planting between fruit trees, according to Mr Howie. “Recently we had a group of Iraqi water officials visit and speaking to them, they said in Iraq where it gets hotter than it does here, they actually use date palms planted amongst the citrus, so you’ve actually got two crops coming from the same bit of land,” he said. “If you’ve got a couple of different incomes from that same patch of land, then if there is a downturn in one crop, the other crop will hopefully buffer it a little bit, so you’ve actually got diversity of income as well.” Mr Howie will be a guest speaker at today’s Carbon Farming Initiative information forum at the Loxton Community Hotel Motel.

Kids tooth decay inevitable? A LOCAL dentist is warning parents to rethink their attitudes towards oral hygiene habits with an increase in tooth decay rates in primary school aged children. Berri based dentist Dr Dimitra Vrastaminos said she has seen a rise in tooth decay in children in recent years. New research undertaken by the Australian Dental Association shows South Australian parents are increasingly accepting their children will get tooth decay. In fact, the research found 60 per cent of parents accept their children will get tooth decay at some point in their lifetime with 35 per cent reporting their child only brushes their teeth

once a day. “Compared to when I started 25 years ago there is a lot more decay in kids these days than there used to be,” Dr Vrastaminos said. “It’s on the increase.” Dr Vrastaminos said parents should not accept tooth decay in their children and instead put measures in place to prevent it. “People think it is am inevitable disease that you are just going to get but it is preventable,” she said. “There is a lot more foods now that are low fat but they are just charging it up with sugar, so parents need to be looking at the sugar content because a lot of those foods they are putting in lunch boxes have got a really high

sugar content.” Supervising children brushing their teeth twice a day is important for parents, according to Dr Vrastaminos. “If they are little, they should be helping or supervising their brushing because kids can’t brush properly,” she said. “They need to make sure they are taking them for a check by the time they are two-years-old and they should be attending a dentist. “If they’ve got a healthy diet, good oral hygiene and regular dental care, tooth decay is preventable and it basically diet related in most cases, so it’s not acceptable for parents to think their kids will get decay.”

Tourism grant for villas

A LUXURY accommodation project in Paringa has been given another funding injection through a federal government tourism grant. Locally owned Emaroo Cottages decided to expand its luxury, eco-tourism holiday home business into the region following a $650,000 grant through the Riverland Sustainable Futures Fund in May. The business has now also received an extra $110,000 through the T-QUAL tourism grants towards its three self contained wellness retreat villas to be built overlooking the river in Paringa. Emaroo Cottages owner Rick Edmonds said the newly announced funding will go towards making the villas as eco-friendly as possible. “It’s going to add more eco features where we are going to be doing double glazing glass, some special motorised blinds, special landscape and that sort of thing to make it even more eco-friendly than what we first intended,� he said.

■LUXURY: An artist’s impression of the new villas to be constructed at Paringa, which has received an extra $110,000 boost. “We believe there is a market out there where people are looking for that eco-friendly. “They still want that luxury and that’s what we’ve got but they like to know that we’ve got the latest equipment using the least power.� With work expected to start on the three villas within four to six weeks, Mr Edmonds said he is

looking forward to seeing the designs come to life. He is confident the villas will attract a new clientele to the Riverland. “We are heading for the top end of the market, well above $600 (per night) so it is going to be high end,� Mr Edmonds said. “Each retreat will have its own swimming pool, spa, sauna

and really, what we are trying to do is to get people to come to the Riverland and really chill out or relax. “It’s going to become an icon similar to Southern Ocean Lodge in Kangaroo Island. “We are under no illusions on how hard it is to get people to travel from Adelaide or Melbourne to come to the Riverland, it is not going to be easy but we believe if we’ve got the right retreat that it’s going to cause its own positive flow of information and people will come.� Mr Edmonds said when completed in July 2013, the total project cost is expected to exceed $1.5 million. “It is going to be something positive for the Riverland for a change and I think that’s the most significant thing we hope to get out of this for the region,� he said. The Riverland project was the only one in the region to receive a slice of the $6.7 million T-QUAL grants allocated across Australia.

Identifying our lost war veterans A PROJECT helping identify war veterans across Renmark, Paringa and Lyrup may lead to the establishment of headstones on the district’s many unmarked graves. A combined community effort has helped to track down and identify almost 500 war veterans, many buried in unmarked graves, across Renmark, Paringa and Lyrup. Supported by a grant from the ANZAC Day Commemoration Council to recognise the war service of the deceased, the Renmark Paringa Council will officially unveil new signage at three of its cemeteries next Thursday. The signage installed at the Renmark Old, Renmark, Paringa and Lyrup cemeteries will include historic information and details of burials. More than 470 of the 4600 war veterans buried in the district’s cemeteries have been identified. Renmark RSL historian David Coombs said being involved in the project has been very rewarding. “I’ve been researching soldiers from Renmark for about 15 years, trying to identify the names on the honour rolls of the Renmark Institute,� he said. “Through that I’ve got to know a lot of the people that lived in Renmark in the old days, learnt a lot about the history of Renmark, the people that lived here, the names, the families and by looking at the names on this database from the council, I could just pick them up.� The project, which involved the

Renmark Girl Guides, is a recognition for the war veterans they would otherwise not receive, according to Mr Coombs. “A lot of graves are unmarked because the family don’t live here anymore or they moved on and these people are unknown, there is no headstone to say who they are,� Mr Coombs said. “Something like the old cemetery at Renmark where a lot of our old history is, there are so many unmarked graves in there. “Now that we’ve identified them it might be another project to put on a headstone or a name and they can now get recognised on these plaques.� Renmark Paringa Council corporate and community services director

■GRAVES: A project has helped identify almost 500 war veterans at the Renmark, Paringa and Lyrup cemeteries. Nathan Haynes said employees, Mr Coombs, Vietnam veteran and graphic artist Tony Hersey and the Renmark Girl Guides were all involved in the project. “There has been significant work from the staff here involved with the project right from the start to ensure all the names we have on file are correct before putting the signage up,� he said. The official opening of the signage will take place on August 23 at 9.30am at the Lyrup Cemetery, 10.15am at the Paringa Cemetery and 11am at the Renmark Cemetery.

Held at Bruce Oval, 84 cars from across the Riverland, Barossa, Mildura and Adelaide entered the popular event, which raised almost $5000 for the Barmera Primary School. Event organiser Graham Matthews said it was pleasing to see car enthusiasts and families embrace All Cars Day. “Everybody who took part was pretty impressed with the whole day,” he said. Mr Matthews said he received positive feedback from entrants and spectators. “The spectators were blown away,” he said. “One of the guys that came up from Adelaide with a blue Mustang, he thought it was awesome, so he has got half a dozen mates who want to come next year.” One of the highlights of the day was the box car drag races involving local children, according to Mr Matthews.

Renmark roadworks compelete A $5.46 million project to upgrade intersections on Renmark Avenue is now complete, providing safer and more efficient driving for Riverlanders. Senator for South Australia Anne McEwen, representing Federal Minister for Infrastructure and Transport Anthony Albanese at the opening ceremony last week, said the intersection upgrades had been carried out to reduce delays, enable greater capacity and address the adverse crash history on Renmark Avenue. “We expect that by 2030 around 14,000 vehicles will travel Renmark Avenue daily, in-

VERYBODY loves a delicious vanilla slice. To commemorate this year’s Great Australian Vanilla Slice Triumph, now being held in Merbein on Saturday, the Riverland Weekly is holding its very own day paying tribute to the popular sweet. Four participating bakeries, the Country Bakehouse in Loxton, Renmark Patisserie, Pieman’s Kitchen, Renmark and the Berri Patisserie, will be offering vanilla slice deals for tomorrow only. Riverland bakeries are renowned for making a delicious vanilla slice and tomorrow will be your chance to get a taste of our favourite treat. Country Bakehouse owner Tim Vivian is encouraging people to come and try its unique vanilla slice. “The vanilla slice is a stalwart in the bakery and it’s a bit of favourite of a lot of customers,” he said. “We always like our scones and our donuts and our vanilla slice.

“For the people that come in early, they’ll be able to get one of the vanilla slices that we’ve prepped for the competition, otherwise they can just buy our delicious normal everyday vanilla slice. “We will make a couple of trays of competition standard vanilla slice which is just slightly varied to what our customers are used to.” Mr Vivian said the key to a good vanilla slice is having really nice vanilla custard that is smooth to eat. The Country Bakehouse will this year be entering the Great Australia Vanilla Slice Triumph and hopes a South Australian bakery can be a winner. Another Riverland famous vanilla slice can be found at the Berri Patisserie. Baker John Stone travelled to Italy to learn how to make custard and returned with the most delicious vanilla slice recipe. “It’s a homemade, old fashioned style recipe,” Berri Patisserie owner Mary Lailey said.

“We know it is the best one and it is made with love and care. “We get good feedback from people because we sell a lot every day.” At Renmark Patisserie, there is something special about its vanilla slice with two options available for customers. The old fashioned and very popular vanilla slice has a scrumptious shortbread base, while the second option is made using puff pastry with a creamier consistency in the custard. Both of the sweets are available tomorrow for a special deal not to be missed. “The vanilla slice is very popular here and we are always getting good feedback from it,” Renmark Patisserie owner Sally Komar said. The Patisserie is entering the annual Great Australian Vanilla Slice Triumph and is hopeful of competing strong. The vanilla slice deal is also available at Pieman’s Kitchen in Renmark for tomorrow only.

BERRI BARMERA LAP & RIVERLAND WEST LANDCARE UPDATE

FEATURE

From your Project Managers Hello and welcome to our August Update.

I

T HAS been that time of year where end of financial year commitments, project reporting requirements and the like have been keeping us desk bound more than the we would like. However, it’s been great getting out and seeing the excellent recruitment of Black Box and Red Gum trees around the wetlands. It has also been a special treat to see young Darter’s and Cormorants in their nests at Brenda Park Our feature this month is full of opportunities for you to get out and about with us during Spring, and with flows still above average, the wetlands should be full of life and water. So take these opportunities with us to get out of the dull routines and enjoy some of the best of what the Riverland has to offer. It’s great to see our local school students actively involved in the environment and there are a couple of great articles about some local projects they are currently involved in. This is, of course, just a snapshot and there is lots more happening. If you would like to include what your school has been involved in, just let us know and we will do the rest. The Riverland Field Days are just around the corner and we will once again be camped in the Natural Resources Management tent. This year we are in a new location, in Third Avenue at sites 309-313, so drop in and say hello. We would love to see you. Till N Nex extt Ti T me ‘Til Next Time

2012 BBLAP Wetland Tour

750 trees planted at Martins Bend ON Friday, July 27, students and community members gathered at Martins Bend to plant 750 native plants over two acres as part of the Schools Tree Day. Students from Berri Primary School, Our Lady of the River Catholic School and the Riverland Christian School along with members of The Berri Lions Club, Big River Toyota, Berri Barmera Council, the Metropolitan fire Service and Berri Barmera Local Action Planning attended the event. Flora species planted included River Red Gum (Eucalyptus camaldulensis), Black Box (Eucalyptus largiflorens),

Dryland Tea Tree (Melaleuca lancelota) and River Cooba (Acacia Stenopyhylla). The event was run in conjunction with Trees for Towns, an initiative of Trees for Life. Berri Barmera LAP Project Officer Kathryn McKinnon led the students on a nature walk around Martins Bend Wetland. Kathryn spoke of the importance of flora and fauna diversity and the crucial role that wetlands play in the ecosystem. Planting native vegetation has multiple benefits for the environment including habitat for animals, preven-

tion of soil erosion, increased biodiversity and combating climate change. Native plants provide further benefits to people because they are aesthetically pleasing and provide fresh, clean air and shade. The day was a great success and enjoyed by all, despite the drizzly weather. Students are encouraged to take their families and friends to the site on Martins Bend Drive and continue to watch the trees grow for years to come. Well done and a big thank you to everyone involved!

Revegetation Projects BERRI Barmera LAP has provided over 1500 native plants to local landholders and schools in the Berri Barmera region for revegetation projects. Nine diverse projects have been undertaken over the winter months on properties in and around Berri, Winkie, Loveday, Monash and Barmera. In addition, over 200 native plants were distributed to local primary schools and kindergartens to support awareness of Schools Trees Day on the July 27. Students from Barmera, Monash and Loveday Primary Schools, as well as Monash and Barmera Kindergartens were involved in these projects. The BBLAP Committee is currently undertaking a review of the revegetation program and would like to seek feedback on the success (or otherwise) of past revegetation projects. If BBLAP has supported a revegetation project on your property in the past and would like to provide input, please contact Kathryn McKinnon. Following on from a number of requests, we have purchased a bulk order of tree guards and stakes. These are available from BBLAP for

a subsidised cost of 30cents per unit (guard and three stakes) Finally, if you are interested in undertaking revegetation activities on your property next year, please get in touch with us soon so we can begin planning our propagation activities for spring and early summer. For information relating to any of the above, contact Kathryn McKinnon on 8582 2183.

■ NATIVE PLANTS: A revegetation project on Matthew Gordon’s property at Winkie.

Farmers take a crop walk ON A cold windy day in July, around 30 farmers and industry partners attended the Lowbank Agricultural Bureau’s crop walk at Tim Paschke’s property. This is the site of the Caring for our Country funded project “improving the uptake of low disturbance sowing techniques in vulnerable regions”. The basis of the trial is to compare disc seeding against knife point seeding where factors such as seed counts, planting depth, emergence, tiller counts and yield will be measured. On the day the trial commenced, over $4 million worth of machinery was on site to sow the 65 hectare demonstration site. Landline were present on the day and their footage of this momentous event can be viewed at www.abc.net.au/landline/content/2012/ s3511972.htm or like us on Facebook at www. facebook.com/RiverlandWestLandcare to view the machines in action. ■ NUMBERS: Physically counting wheat plants emerging in one square metre.

Looking at local natives

THE Berri Barmera Local Action Planning Committee will be hosting its annual wetland tour on Sunday, October 14. Based on feedback from tours over the past couple of years, the 2012 event will focus primarily on one wetland, which is likely to be the Loveday Wetland Complex. This may be changed to Overland Corner if river levels are too high to enable access to the Loveday Wetlands. Participants will be taken on a guided walk of the wetland and be provided with information relating to flora and fauna, water regimes and management techniques, impacts of the drought and how wetlands are recovering with the higher flows over the past two years. We will co-ordinate bus transport to and from Berri and afternoon tea and dinner will be provided. It is intended to run the tour mid to late afternoon when hopefully bird life will be at is most prevalent. To register, please contact Paul or Kathryn at the BBLAP office on 8582 2183 or email kathryn@bblap.org.au

THIS month we feature the Showy Daisy-Bush (Olearia pimeleoides). Showy Daisy-bush is a compact, often rounded shrub that grows to about a metre high. The grey leaves are covered with short woolly hairs and the branches have a cotton appearance. Masses of white flowers with yellow centres appear on the plants in late winter to early spring. It can be seen growing in bushland and on road reserves. Often people ask “what is that white flower?” when it is seen on road reserves. During good seasons the foliage can be almost totally hidden by the flowers. The plants are very drought tolerant as the covering of hairs helps to prevent moisture loss. If you see a plant covered with masses of white flowers on the side of the road it may be “that white flower” Showy Daisy-Bush.

Working with the community to support the local environment

Martins Bend community meeting a success

Upcoming Events Overland Corner Wetland Monitoring Saturday 1st September 9:30am at OC Regulator Contact: Paul Stribley Phone 8582 2182

THE BBLAP Committee hosted a successful meeting on June 19 to bring together community members and representatives from various organisations who have an interest in the ongoing management of the Martins Bend wetland. Participants discussed the work BBLAP and Berri Lions Club have undertaken in the past 12 months, wetland monitoring, planned works for Martins Bend and brought a wide range of other ideas

which also may be considered in the future. In terms of what is planned in the near future, Greg Perry from the Berri Barmera Council presented the council’s stormwater project, which will increase the area and volume of stormwater retention at Martins Bend and allow for stormwater re-use on council reserves. There may also be opportunities to utilise excess stormwater for wetland management.

Paul Stribley from BBLAP discussed LAP plans to decommission a couple of small wetland structures which are inhibiting flow along the walking trail and develop plans and begin construction of sections of boardwalk. The long-term plan is to have the Alan Thurmer Recreation Trail accessible up to flows around 50,000 Megalitres per day. The meeting concluded with agreement to develop a Martins Bend Management

Committee, thus enabling representatives from all stakeholder groups to keep abreast of each others activities in a more formal manner than the ad-hoc approach that has occurred up until now. The BBLAP Committee will take responsibility for coordinating this group and anyone with an interest in being involved who was not at the first meeting is encouraged to contact Paul Stribley on 8582 2183 or email paul@bblap.org.au

Winkie students breakthrough fisheries project WINKIE Primary School is always looking for new ways to extend the children’s learning. By combining learning with the local waterways ,a native fish project has become a great way to improve student engagement and learning. With support from the Murray-Darling Basin Natural Resources Management Board (MDBNRM), Department of Environment, Water and Natural Resources (DEWNR), Berri to Barmera Local Action Planning (BBLAP), Primary Industries and Regions South Australia (PIRSA) Fisheries and Aquaculture, Fishcare volunteers, Murray Darling Basin Authorities Native Fish Strategy (MDBA NFS) and Hook Line and Sinker, the upper primary school students from Winkie Primary headed to Katarapko to participate in a local fisheries project, as part of the Katfish Reach demonstration project. On the day students collected fish species from DEWNR research nets and fished using recreational fishing rods and lines. All fish that were caught were categorised into alien and native fish and were measured and identified for future analysis. The data was used within a maths lesson at the school to be graphed

and discussed. This data will form part of an ongoing study to understand local native fish numbers and the impacts of alien fish and other threats in the waterways near Winkie Primary school. It is expected that the children will collect data from a site within Katarapko four times a year and while this is the start of the project, the school aims for the project to continue for many years. The project has significant benefits for the school and local environment and may help in developing projects to protect native fish with the Katfish Reach project. The MDBNRM, DEWNR, BBLAP, PIRSA Fisheries and Aquaculture, MDBA NFS are keen to get schools involved in monitoring fish numbers and Winkie primary school is leading the way by being the first school in South Australia to participate in this project. The school also aims to share the data collected with the wider community giving children the opportunity to work regularly with local media. For more information, contact Paul Haenen at Winkie Primary School on 8583 2285.

Offering stalls featuring options for printing, cakes, hair, beauty, photography, venue, music, gowns and

cars, the Renmark Club Bridal Expo will have all you need to organise a great wedding. Renmark Club functions manager Lyn Wilksch said there is something for anyone who is coming to the Riverland and wants to know what is available to hold a wedding. “The fact is we have a lot of destination people come here and they want to use local people and I know there

are people coming up from Adelaide to this exhibition hopefully to book people who are exhibiting at the expo,” Mrs Wilksch said. “It’s one-stop shopping for their wedding.” During the expo, one of the highlights will be a fashion parade of wedding gowns. The Renmark Club Bridal Expo is being held on August 26 from 11am until 3pm.

Sarah Lehmann and James Kloeden, of Loxton. Groom’s parents: David and Lucy Kloeden, of Moorook. Bride’s parents: Bernie and Kay Lehmann, of Peebinga. The wedding party: Brett White (Best Man), Ben Hoffmann and Justin Montgomery. Melanie Lehmann (Maid of honour), Jayne Singh and Meggie Murdoch. Number of guests: 170 Ceremony location: In the gorgeous garden at Akuna Station, Waikerie. Reception location: In a marquee on the riverfront at Akuna Station. Favourite moments: The entire day! We loved seeing our hard work finally come together. Challenges: Balancing full time work and planning a wedding. Unique aspect: I suppose the one thing that

did surprise our guests was our arrival. The boys came on a golf buggy and the girls were in a cart that was towed by a white tractor and driven by the father of the bride, Bernie Lehmann. We also had Anthony Lehmann (Lehmo) MC our big day. He is a talented comedian who did a fantastic job at entertaining guests at our reception. Wedding song: I can’t really remember! We must have had bigger things to focus on, like not tripping down the aisle and remembering our vows. Honeymoon: We went to Denarau Island in Fiji the week after our wedding. It was the perfect honeymoon because the culture is very relaxed and care-free. We did nothing but sleep, eat and laze in the sun. Tips for future brides: Try not to get caught up in all the wedding hype and feel pressured into having what others expect or have previously done. Do it your own way. Tips for future grooms: Hold on for the ride boys. It will be over soon enough.

appointments as most of our bridal party live in Adelaide.

Reception location: The Loxton Hotel.

Unique aspect: We had a photobooth which was so much fun and an absolute hit with the guests, young and old. It was great for the guests to take a print-out home that night. We also had a surprise guest on the day, which was my grandfather from Italy, which made the day even more special.

The wedding party: Maria Ferrone (Maid of Honour), Andrew Baker (Best Man), Isabella Ferrone, Shelley Knowling, Daniella Barone, Michael Seekamp, Domenico Ferrone, Antonio Carmine Ferrone, Alexia and Leon Piscitelli (flower girl and pageboy).

Favourite moments: Seeing Dwayne at the ceremony. We were lucky with the weather, the sun peaked through at the ceremony and it was beautiful. Just having all of our family around us, sharing in our special day. The bridal party photos were fun and Dwayne’s speech was funny and very sweet.

Number of guests: 115.

Challenges: Co-ordinating dress fittings and

Wedding song: Elvis Pressley – Can’t Help Falling In Love Honeymoon: The Grampians and The

During the planning stages, keep reminding yourself that the day is about you and your husband and you should include things that reflect your personalities and try not to be influenced by others Tips for future grooms: Show an interest. Don’t be scared to have your opinion and talk about it with your partner as some of the great ideas from our wedding came from Dwayne.

Tori Jachmann and Saxton Brown, of Berri Bride’s Parents: Phil and Carlene Jachmann, of Loxton. Groom’s Parents: Terry and Jacqui Brown, of Berri. Wedding location: Both the ceremony and reception were held at the garden of the Groom’s parent’s house, which is located on the banks of the Murray River at Martins Bend, Berri. Number of guests: 125 Bridesmaids: Narelle Sarakinis (Bride’s sister) Renae Simmons (Bride’s sister) Regan Smith and Donna Manuel. Groomsmen: Nicholas Brown (Groom’s brother) and James Moldovan. Challenges: Just a little one...the bride’s wedding ring fell in the river during the ceremony. After an awkward couple of seconds the bride’s sister lent us her wedding band and we continued on with the ceremony. We took that little challenge in our stride and we can honestly say that it didn’t ruin our special day. Luckily the SA police diving unit found the diamond wedding band two weeks later.

Favourite Moments: Arriving at the ceremony and finally getting to see one another and all our wonderful family and friends. Brett McPherson (guitarist/friend) getting up and singing a song that he wrote about us. Receiving our beautiful wedding photos back from Karen Jericho and getting to relive the day all over again. Unique Aspects: We had an uneven number of groomsmen and bridesmaids. Comfortable footwear was worn by the bridal party on the day. The guys wore black thongs while the girls wore flat strappy sandals. We chose to have a cocktail style reception where Salt and Pepper catered. This allowed us and our guests to mingle more freely. We also decided not to have a cake, instead cupcakes were brought out for dessert later on in the night along with the lolly bar. At the time of our wedding we were building our house and the decision to go there and have photos taken in our half constructed house was the best thing we did. The photos turned out great and it will be a great reminder in years to come.

Honeymoon: Port Douglas and Cairns Tips for brides: Remember to plan the day around yourselves, after all the day is all about the bride and groom. Try and be as organised as possible in the days leading up to your big day, don’t be afraid to ask others for help (even the groom). By being organised you will feel more relaxed on the day. To us, one of the most important things was to make sure we chose an experienced photographer who we felt comfortable with and who we had trust in to capture the emotions of our special day. Our photographer Karen Jericho was fantastic, she certainly delivered far beyond our expectations and we were extremely happy with our photos. Tips for Grooms: Constantly keep checking on the bride to see what she has planned and booked. They think they know everything and that us men are useless when it comes to planning a wedding but sometimes we can be of some help.

OME through and see the attention to detail that has been taken in creating this beautiful home and garden. Through great vision, the owners have blended this home amongst beautifully landscaped gardens, hidden away from all of the hustle and bustle. The home has been designed with an open living floor plan that comprises four bedrooms - two and three with built-in robes and the master bedroom with a walkin robe and large ensuite. The attractive and spacious kitchen has all stainless steel appliances, tiled splash-

back, a large island preparation bench and plenty of cupboard and bench space. Gas heating and ducted cooling will take care of all of your heating and cooling needs. Outdoor entertaining will be a delight under the 12m x 6m Colorbond gable roof pergola, with roller shutters for comfort all year round. For the home handyman the four bay 12m x 6m Colorbond shed offers the perfect place for all the home projects plus there is a double carport under the main roof.

ARE you looking to save money off your quarterly electricity bill? Through Todd Harris Electrical, the business offers the sale and installation of solar panels, guaranteed to cut your electricity costs in the short and long term. For the past two decades, Todd Harris Electrical has offered commercial, industrial and residential electrical needs. Owner Todd Harris said many Riverlanders are concerned about rising utility bills. “People that use a lot of power want to reduce their usage,� he said. “I’ve noticed over the past two weeks I’ve had phone calls from people who received their power bill and noticed how much it has risen. “By installing solar panels, the cost point of bills will reduce.� Todd Harris Electrical can provide advice and answer any questions on solar panel installation and the benefits to help you make a decision. Offering free quotes on-site or over the phone across the Riverland and Mallee, Todd said once a deposit to install solar

panels is paid, they are generally installed within two to three weeks. Dealing directly with a local installer is also a bonus, according to Todd. “The person that comes around is me, I’m the one that is going to install the panels,� he said. It is not only domestic homes that are installing solar panels but commercial businesses are also cutting back on power costs. “We’ve installed solar panels on butcher shops, a builder’s shed and a manufacturing facility,� Todd said. “With the solar panels installed, I’ve had feedback to tell me that bills dropped from $700

Armchair Experts

RIVERLAND INDEPENDENTS - ROUND EIGHTEEN MATCH OF THE ROUND BSR is expected to be close to full strength with Craig Lindner and Steven Bajszi returning. The Swans are likely to include Mick Miller, Wade Simpson, Brad Barton and Wayne Priest. However, coach Arrod Westley said he may rest sore players including Chris Gardner, Andrew Lloyd and Nick Dillon if required. The battle of the mi field could be the deciding factor in this match with Lloyd, Tristan Jackson and Jesse Watson against Dale Payne, Troy Cowland and Dave Waechter.

Paringa v BSR IT could not have been scripted any better for Paringa and Blanchetown Swan Reach with the final home and away game determining who will win the minor premiership. The Redbacks have been on top of the ladder for most of the season and they are confident of finishing first. On the other hand, Paringa seems unfazed by the need to win a minor premiership with the focus on finals.

THE OTHER GAMES

The BSR defence will need to watch Gardner, who has been playing in the forward pocket due to injury, booting five goals against Ramco on the weekend. Kyle Coleman has been solid in defence and may match up on Dean Hill. On a number of occasions this season, BSR has played the loose man in defence and it will be interesting to see if the same tactic is employed against Paringa. BSR coach Peter Zadow said it will put the club’s strongest team on the ground this weekend.

“It gives you a lot of confidence if you can stay top and finish minor premiers,� he said. Paringa coach Arrod Westley said he wants to win but his main focus is not the minor premiership. “We want the big one,� he said. “We’ll just get a bit of a look at them and see how they line-up. “Our midfield on the weekend was awesome, our fitness really stood out.� In what will be a very highly entertaining match, Paringa should win by two goals.

THE OTHER GAMES round. Considering the Roosters recent form, a win for Cobdogla is a huge ask. The Eagles are hopeful of including Dillon Clarke and Adam Barnett in this weekend’s team. After losing to Paringa last round, Ramco will be hoping to bounce back. Containing league leading goalkicker Max Baddack will be a major

Cobdogla v Ramco AT the start of the season, many people involved in local football did not expect Cobdogla to be playing for a top four position. However, blooding a number of juniors has paid off and the Eagles have the chance to finish fourth with a win over Ramco this

challenge for Cobdogla with Barnett or potentially Josh Watkins to matchup on him. The Cobdogla defence led by Deane Mitchell, Mitch Winen, Craig Aitken and Luke Wegener will be tested. Daniel Donnely has been playing forward for Ramco, alongside Scott Marr and Cameron Hawke. Jamie O’Callaghan is again a key player in the

ruck and will provide first use of the football to his midfielders. Cobdogla coach Brad Gillespie said it will be hard to match up on Ramco’s talls but he has belief in his team. “It’s probably going to come down to the mentality of the younger ones who stepped up this year,� he said. Ramco should end the Eagles finals chances with a 10 goal victory.

East Murray v Lyrup

Brown’s Well v Wunkar

LYRUP is currently less than two per cent away from fourth position on the ladder but a win against East Murray would just about guarantee it a spot in the finals. It will not be an easy task at East Murray with the Tigers coming off a win. If Brown’s Well loses to Wunkar and East Murray beats Lyrup, the Tigers can finish in sixth position. The Lions only led MoorookKingston by six points at three quarter time last round but went on to win by 83 points. Kenny Karpany junior was outstanding in his senior debut, along with Adrian Abdulla junior, who kicked five goals. The Lyrup defence will need to watch Jason Berger, who has kicked 43 goals this season, including seven majors last round.Chris Rudiger and Benjamin Whitehead have had plenty of the football in recent weeks and East Murray needs them to play well if it is going to have any chance of a win. This match is a must win for Lyrup but East Murray will make it as difficult as possible.

AFTER a very up and down season, Brown’s Well will be hoping to finish on a high note against Wunkar. At one stage the Bombers were tagged as finals contenders but they were unable to match it with the top three teams in the final rounds. Wunkar has been able to notch up three wins and will already be looking to rebuild on the young talent it currently has for next season. The Bombers are hopeful of regaining the services of Mark Tootell and Nigel Hampel this round. Wunkar’s defence will have its hands full trying to contain James Fiegert and Geordie Franks up forward. At the other end, Bryce Victor may take in-form veteran Shane Schulz, while Jordan Hentschke and Ian Worsfold will be watched. Pat Flavel and Troy Braun have been outstanding in the middle for Brown’s Well and may play on Dan Evans and Kyle Worsfold. Brown’s Well coach Lance Degenhardt said a win is essential. “We’ve got to have players who have total commitment because we want to beat Wunkar,� he said. The Bombers should finish off the season with a three goal win.

MALLEE FOOTBALL LEAGUE FIRST SEMI-FINAL

Lameroo v Murrayville ! ! $ !&

$

! 8 $

LAMEROO finished four wins ahead of Murrayville but that means nothing going into this weekend’s first semi-final at Peake. The Hawks have been clinical against the Bulldogs in the three encounters this season, winning all of them. With Trent Sporn (55 goals) and Daniel Fry (72 goals) firing up forward for Murrayville, it could be anyone’s game.

At the other end, Lameroo also has plenty of goalkicking power with Shane Agelis (55 goals) and Ricky Hunter (42 goals) part of a potent attack, which also has plenty of speed. Matt and Josh Ridgway are also reliable around the goals. The Hawks will be hoping to cover Sporn and Fry with defenders Billy McNeilly and Vaughan Noonan. Again the battle of the midfields will be crucial Shaun Walker, Hayden Thorpe, Andrew Purchase, Danny Steer, Jarred Ker-

ber and Travis Hancock up against Murrayville’s Michael Worsman, Nick Rees and Thomas Bailey. Todd Jones and Kym Benham should produce a pivotal and potentially game defining ruck contest. Bulldog defenders Jesse Vass and Nick Noblett are likely to match up on Agelis and Hunter. This is a huge opportunity for Lameroo to advance through to the preliminary finals but only if it can stop Sporn and Fry in a shoot-out.

BDT has had an even list of contributors this season and for that reason may not produce a Mail Medalist.

IT seems likely that Karoonda could feature heavily in this year’s medal

count with midfielder Ben Quinn having an oustanding season. He has previously won a Mail Medal in the River Murray Football League. 2011 medalist Corey Knight has been consistent again and could poll well. Other players to poll consistently should be Zakk Bullard and Jarred Graetz.

Lameroo FORMER Mail Medal winner Andrew Purchase may be Lameroo’s leader and should poll well early. Shane Agelis booted 55 goals and his skills may see him gain some votes. A dark horse would have to be Hayden Thorpe, who plays hard at the football.

Murrayville PLAYING coach Michael Worsman is one of the favourites for this year’s medal. Only his win/loss record may let him down. Nick Rees has also been consistent and should poll early, while Trent Sporn and Daniel Fry are likely to attract votes.

Peake LACHLAN Wilson and Rick Berling are Peake’s two medal hopes but a lack of wins may see those players overlooked for three vote games.

Pinnaroo DESPITE Pinnaroo finishing bottom, Tyron Bennetts should poll consitently. Alex Keough may be in the mix despite injuries.

On THE mark

RIVERLAND FOOTBALL LEAGUE - ROUND FIFTEEN ,/

MATCH OF THE ROUND

Berri v Renmark THE last time Berri and Renmark met, the result was a draw which reignited the Rovers’ season. After unexpectedly losing to Loxton in the round leading up to the draw, Renmark appeared to have lost confidence in itself. Now, the Rovers are aiming for three consecutive wins with another victory cementing a finals position. Berri is coming off the back of a fighting victory over Loxton North and will be hoping to demonstrate why it is outright third. The Demons are hopeful key midfielder Adam Beauchamp, defender Steven Raeder, Daniel Wilson and Mitch Blackie will all return to the team. The depth of Berri may again be stretched with Brad Dolling and Martin Barber to be tested tonight with doubts over their fitness.

News is through that Darren Marner will not play again this season and will be out of action for three months. For Renmark, the team is almost back to full strength with Steven Pitt to slot back in this round. Berri coach Alby Brand said the team cannot look too far ahead, instead giving players time to return to form after injury. “We’ve got to try and settle our side,” he said. “Because of the disruptive nature of injuries, we are just getting guys back now.” Players like Jamie Mi burn and Nathan Geyer are examples of the challenges Berri has faced with injury with the pair missing a combined total of 12 weeks. Renmark has also had its injury concerns but has really found the right structure with Ben Wagnitz leading the way up forward. Michael Voigt or Kym Sampson should get the job on Wagnitz. Peter Safralidis has

been in some of the best form or his career in the latter half of the season through the midfield and it should be an intense battle for possessions with Matt Camplin. Livewire forward David Hankin is a worry for every defence but Jaryd Rowe has done the job successfully on him in past encounters between these two teams. Brand said the team must improve on its goalkicking conversion. “If our forwards are up and going then we can finish off the good work from the midfield,” he said. Renmark coach Brett Blackwell said the prospect of his team’s top four finish is exciting. “We’re not in territory we are used to,” he said. “We’ve been going really well with forward entries and kicking goals.” A win for Renmark will just about seal a finals position but Berri will be hungry to continue on from last round’s form and should be victorious by four goals at home.

Loxton v Waikerie

AN injury ravaged Loxton may be forced to call on its junior stocks to fill an A grade team this weekend. In a sight you rarely see on the football field, Loxton were reduced to just 16 fit players on the weekend against Renmark. With Pat Portolesi already ruled out for the rest of the season, Raph Liddle is also unlikely to return this year. Jesse Smith, Jamahl Liddle, Brett Manuel, Jarred Collinson, Rhett Colls and Mitch Fazekas all pulled up sore and will require tests at training tonight before being given the green light to play. Waikerie is also battling its own injury problems but should welcome back two important players in Craig Underwood and Jim Thomson. Daniel Smith will be unavailable due to work and ruckman Craig Miller should overcome an ankle injury to play.

? Did you know..?

The Magpies have been dealt a blow with news on Andrew Bachmann’s injury. “It looks like he’s going to be out longer than we thought,” Waikerie cocoach Craig Griffiths said. Jackson Sutton has also had a knee operation following cartilage damage and in the best case scenario could return before the grand final. The Magpies still have a strong midfield with Damian Stevens, Tim Bevan and Michael Bratton likely to face Bryce Freundt, Leigh Kruger and Nick Uren. Steven Braun could match-up on Jamahl Liddle if he plays. Griffiths said the team must prepare for finals. “We’re not going to get too concerned about the loss (to Barmera-Monash),” he said. Loxton coach Mick Zerna said the Tigers will put a young team on the field. “You don’t want to get blown out of the water,” he said. Waikerie to win by 12 goals.

WAIKERIE legend Mark Ricciuto was named in the South Australian Hall of Fame last week. RACHAEL Sporn will be the guest speaker at the Mallee Mail Medal on Sunday.

FORMER Waikerie player Brad Helbig has returned to AFL level at Richmond after missing a number of weeks. Let’s hope he finishes off the season well.

GOOD to see Dan Proud back on the field after an injury ridden season.

Dream debut for 14-year-old IT was a moment to remember for 14-year-old Kenny Karpany junior on Saturday when he played alongside his father against MoorookKingston. The youngster played three matches for the day after fronting up for Berri juniors

in the morning and then for Lyrup in the colts and A grade. In the seniors he booted six goals in a best on ground performance.

THE OTHER GAMES

Barmera-Monash v Loxton North BARMERA-MONASH knows Loxton North will be desperate to attack the football this round in need of a win. The reigning premier has found itself in an uncomfortable fifth position needing at least a win against the top two teams to make the cut. The Roos are coming off an impressive top of the table clash victory over Waikerie and will be hoping to continue their strong record at home this season. Prolific wingman Michael Smart could potentially be rested due to soreness, while Brett McPherson may be a chance to take his place this round. Loxton North is likely to have a relatively unchanged line-up after Ryan Gray played on the weekend despite injury concerns. After missing a majority of the season, best and fairest midfielder Dan Proud

may return this round after playing in the B grade and performing well on the weekend with two goals. One of the most promising signs for Barmera-Monash is Murray Middleton’s return to form. Anton Cook, Josh Voigt and the quick footed Ben Walter are potential matchups for Middleton, pictured. Both teams enjoy running and carrying the football with Ryan Proud and Jack Selfe and Jamie Ferguson and Ryan Burns likely to run side-by-side. Cook started forward last round and may also do the same this week. Barmera-Monash coach Lyndon Burns said the win against Waikerie was pleasing considering the two teams will meet in the second semi-final. “We had a good look at them and threw some of our players around to different spots,” he said. “We probably could have won by a bit more.”

The Roos have now officially claimed the minor premiership. “It’s good for the club, it’s good for the boys and with their work rate they deserve it,” Burns said. “Loxton North’s season is on the line and we know they are going to come out fired up.” Loxton North coach Craig Wooldridge said it has been an unlucky season with his team losing seven games by less than four goals. “I’m still playing to win, you just never know,” he said. “It’s been the same all year we haven’t been able to lift it up a gear.” The Roos will continue their almost faultless season with a six goal victory.

RFL B GRADE WITH just two rounds to go, Loxton North, Berri and Loxton are all locked on four wins each. Berri has a chance to jump into the top four against Renmark. However, the Rovers have been playing well in recent weeks beating Loxton by 149 points last round. Led by Kaine Aston and Denny Murphy, Renmark should get over Berri easily despite the

efforts of midfielder David Centofanti and big man Dan Reynolds. Barmera-Monash can consolidate the double chance with a victory over Loxton North. With Brad Walter and Jake Tapper elevated to the A grade, the Panther depth has been tested in recent weeks. Veteran Steven Inglis will need to be at his best and ably supported in defence by Michael Trezise but they will not overcome

the Roos with James Coats and Ben Harrington playing well. Waikerie is likely to finish the season unbeaten and will easily account for Loxton. Tyson Sutton, Mitchell Noble and Cameron Wells were all good for the Magpies last round, while Loxton’s Rory Kloester and Grant Dahlitz have stood up. The Magpies should enjoy a 100 plus point win on their home turf.

CHARLIE’S SPORTS GOSS WITH GRAHAM CHARLTON

Nailbiting loss for Superdogs ■ THE RIVERLAND Superdogs were gallant in defeat against River Murray at a dry and hard Murray Bridge Imperials oval last Sunday. Missing a number of its top players, the depleted Riverland team went down by only two points 8-4 (52) to 8-2 (50) with poor forward work in the first half probably costing it an outstanding victory. Launching countless attacks, players like Ken Karpany, Shane Healy and Darren Tieste got sore necks watching the ball sail back over their heads from the rebounding home team defence. Injuries to a couple of Superdogs did not help the case either as they were left without an interchange bench. Tieste was one of those injured, not with a neck problem but with a torn thigh. Such is the dedication of the former coach that he hobbled from the oval at his quickest for the season to obtain treatment from the trainers, although some of his unsympathetic teammates suggested he was thirsty. Coach Healy made some inspirational moves at the long break including Rick Frahn to the midfield and Sam Ingerson to a wing. But despite a much improved second half the odds were too great and a brave effort just failed in a hectic finish. Shaun Harris was superb in ruck, Peter Aston and Lance Gum rebounded strongly from defence and Ingerson, Frahn, Karpany and, until injuried, Tieste all gave their utmost. The Superdogs should be back to near full strength for the next game at Lyrup on Sunday, August 26, the Club’s Family Day.

Swinstead leads qualifiers ■ WILL SWINSTEAD was the first to advance through to the quarter finals during the 2012 Barmera Golf Club Championships qualifying rounds on the weekend. He finished with a gross score of 161 in the A grade, ahead of Kevin Martin on 162, Andrew Ivanovic on 166 and Luke Hampshire on 168. In the B grade qualifying rounds, Ian Gillespie topped the division with a gross score of 183, Neville McPherson finished on 156 ahead of Glen Millard on 155. Mohinder Uhbey was first in C grade with a gross score of 151, ahead of Robert Minns on 152 and Bill Allen on 155. The best score over the two days was by Kevin Martin in the A grade with a net score of 81 on both Saturday and Sunday off a 10 handicap, giving him a net score of 142 in total. The quarter finals will be played this Saturday with semi-finals on Sunday to decide the finalists for the following weekend. At Waikerie, Jan Pearson won a Thursday event with 106/73, while Kath Watkins scored a hole-in-one on the 13th.

Young cricketer shines ■ PROMISING young WaikerieRamco cricketer Ben Schiller has been included in an under 19 squad chosen by the Jason Gillespie Academy in Adelaide that will undertake a tour of England in July next year. The right arm medium pace bowler has been travelling to the city for training sessions since he was nominated for an intake at the academy by respected player-coach Andrew Duffield. Duffield, an experienced campaigner with a playing career that included a long period with the Glenelg District Club before he moved to live in Waikerie, has ex-

tended on his coaching involvement at both the Gillespie and Darren Lehmann Academies and travels to Adelaide each weekend for session sessions.

portunity for the 15 strong squad to develop their game. “Ben Schiller has seized his opportunity with both hands and has worked hard to gain a spot in the group. “He has impressed a num-

ber of good judges with his pace bowling and he handles a bat pretty well too.” Being in the city each weekend to work at the academies last season, Duffield was also snapped up by the East Torrens Cricket Club to play in its lower grades and to take a role in developing the club’s younger players. He will continue in that capacity in 2012-13 and Ben Schiller will also join the club. “Ben will probably start in grade three,” Duffield said, “but I will not be surprised to see him work himself into a higher level as the season unfolds.”

Waikerie stakes claim for men’s A grade title ■ THE face of Riverland hockey is changing as the finals near. Probably the most definite issue is that a powerful and even Waikerie team has staked a legitimate claim to favouritism for the men’s A grade title. Also in that competition, Renmark is making inroads into reigning premier Loxton’s ranking of second fancy. Mind you, Loxton are one team that is obviously having trouble accumulating its number one combination consistently. In the women’s A grade, Renmark continues to loom as a huge threat to 2011 premier Loxton, while a rejuvenated Berri has slipped ahead of Waikerie. The Waikerie men’s team was awesome last weekend in defeating Berri 11-1. Scott Moldovan scored first for Berri but from there the top side was so even in its demolition job that the best player spot on the results sheet understandably said “all played well”. But Jason Redemski with four goals, Lachlan Seabrook with three goals and Brenton Kroehn all deserved special mentions. For Berri, consistent trio Moldovan, Alex Arnold and Dylan Couzner were best on field. In the other men’s game, Renmark, with coach Brett Stokes back and in form with two goals, led Loxton 3-0 at half time but from then on Loxton fought back to end at 3-2. Martin Tucker and Aden Shaw also played well for Renmark, while Michael Hopper who scored both goals, Luke McDonough and Daniel Schubert dug deep for Loxton.

It is now found that a third Loxton player in Sean Burgess has also been asked to ‘train on’ after his impressive performances for South Australia at the titles and is also a chance for the trip to Fiji.

■ CHASE: Young Berri and Waikerie players vye for the ball during the A grade women’s clash. Photos: GRANT SCHWARTZKOPFF The Berri versus Waikerie women’s clash was a real arm wrestle with Berri up 1-0 at half time and 2-0 by the end of the match. Jen Kiel and goalkeeper Sara Oldfield continued to defend splendidly for Berri and Emma Burge and Ada Walladge were all prominent. Waikerie, off the boil after some mid season promise, was best served by Zoe Liebich, Carlye Waye and Janine Frost. The Renmark and Loxton clash was simply a typical Renmark and Loxton clash with no quarter asked or given and the

final result being 2-2. Loxton with Pauline Hennig, Louise Smith and Eloise Hampel having good games held the early advantage with Renmark playing catch up hockey. But catch up it did thanks largely to the efforts of Tegan Moldovan and Sally and Alison Giles. In other hockey news, not only has Berri and Riverland stalwart, both on and off the field of play, Raelene Trimper reached a milestone birthday wise in recent times she also played her 650th game last weekend in the B grade against Waikerie.

Renmark and Barmera draw, while Berri trounces Loxton in Riverland soccer ■ IN ROUND 14 of Riverland soccer on Sunday, second placed Barmera United (25 points) drew with third ranked Renmark Olympic (17 points) three goals apiece. Kosta Zois again led the Barmera goal scorers with two, while best players named were George Vlassopoulos and Daniel Kegal. Yianni Sialas and Lenny Gadaleta were outstanding for Renmark. In the other game, Berri River Rangers were ruthless against Loxton United even though it has the premiership well and truly in its keeping. Chris Miller (four goals) and Marcus Drogemuller and Ty-

son Schrapel, each with three goals, along with Edmond Grosser dominated for Berri, while for Loxton’s Geordie Franks was the standout. In the women’s open competition goals were at a premium. Renmark led strongly by Angela Pavlomanolakos and Tina Makris were prominent in defeating Barmera (Olivia Hambi, Christina Vithoulkas) 1-0, while it was a 0-0 draw between Berri (Rebecca Ward, Marnie Stewart) and Loxton (Libby Tuhoro, Haylee Symens). The closest match in the junior grades was a draw between Berri and Renmark Two in the under 14s, 2-2.

■ RENMARK looks well on course for back-to-back A1 grade netball premierships after defeating traditional rival Loxton comfortably last Friday night 55-32. After receiving a jolt at the hands of Berri in the last round of matches, Renmark has returned to form in style in recent weeks and boasts contributors to an exceptional team game all over the court. Kerri Turk and Anita Modlinski in particular have been in rare form. In the last of the minor round games tomorrow night Renmark runs into Berri again. There are many in netball circles who consider this could be a preview of this season’s grand final. Berri are coming off a 54-28 win over Loxton North and in its recent outings has had Kimberley Wade, Tori Brown, Nicole Hall and Carolyn Martin promi-

nent in an even team. Meanwhile, Loxton has a bye this week and after continuing to fall short of top side Renmark by a considerable margin during 2012, it is debatable whether taking a break entering the finals is a good or bad situation. But we can be sure of one thing that it will not forego its seemingly permanent grand final berth without a fight. Jackie Dahlitz, Hollie Buick and Eve Will have been performing consistently and we recall 2010 when the club gambled and took risks of missing the pennant decider by withholding an amended game plan. Of course the ploy worked perfectly but on this season’s form it is doubtful if anything like that plan will reappear. Tomorrow night’s other game sees Barmera return after a bye to meet Loxton North. North’s best last week were

Huge prize money up for grabs during November’s Murray Man Triathlon ■ TEN thousand dollars in prize money has been confirmed for the Open category of the 2012 Berri Resort Hotel Murray Man – Australian Age Group Long Course Triathlon Championships to be held at Barmera’s Lake Bonney on Sunday, November 4. First place for both men and women will receive $1800, second will get $1300 and third $800. During the event, the Berri Hotel will also host a pasta night and training forum on Saturday, November 3. A selected panel of speakers has been invited to be interviewed in an ‘on the couch’ forum titled ‘Triathlon Training

– Busting the Myths’. Topics to be covered include training, nutrition and race day tips. Seats will be limited at 250 people with the cost at $20 per head. The evening will contain the first of two race briefings with the second to be held on Sunday morning at 7.30am. Bookings for the function can be made at www.murrayman.com.au/page2/pasta-night&-training-forum/ On Saturday afternoon an enticer short course triathlon and other activities will take place at the Lake. Details and registration are available at www.murrayman.

com.au/page2/berri-barmeracome-n-tri/ Sunday’s main event involves a two kilometre swim, 80km bike ride and 20km run. Organisers have again invited locals to volunteer for this first class event to assist in a variety of capacities. Full briefings are available and volunteers will receive total support in the festival like atmosphere. It is a great way for people to learn new skills, participate in an exciting event, watch the athletes perform close up, be part of a diverse team and at the same time, contribute to the community. An application form appears at the Murray Man website.

Jordan Jachmann and coach Kylie Wooldridge, who will be anxious to see her young side finish its season on a high note. Barmera on the other hand will be striving to get back to the form it displayed in accounting for Berri recently in preparation for next week’s knockout semi-final. The availability of Cobie Drogemuller following an injury a fortnight ago is crucial to Barmera’s major round future. Taking a closer look at the Renmark versus Berri clash, the approach of the two teams will be interesting. Renmark will be keen to reverse the upset loss at the hands of its opponent when they last met, while Berri will be striving to maintain some psychological high ground against a probable opponent in the next few weeks. Meanwhile in the Independent competition, East Murray defeated Wunkar by eight goals

in A grade netball last Saturday, 38-30. Emily Zadow and Amber Dorward were named best for East Murray and Jo Hansen and Wendy Owen were the top players for Wunkar. In other matches, Jo Schmidt and Shailey Coleman showed the way for Blanchetown Swan Reach in a 50-29 win over Brown’s Well, who were best served by Gabriella Oxborrow and Stephanie Charles, while Ramco (Sharna Linke, Jacqui Wood) defeated Paringa (Terry Murphy, Taylee Healy) 43-26. B grade games were won by East Murray (Mikayla Curtis, Monique Sullivan) over Wunkar (Chelsea Bruce, Kym Petherick) 61-13, Ramco (Jessica Walding, Jessica Trebilock) against Paringa (Chloe Shorrock, Teresa Rover) 30-22 and BSR (Lucinda Mallet, Abey Davies) over Brown’s Well (Danielle Nitschke, Chantelle Voigt) 41-25.

Nickolai continues good shooting form in top conditions ■ IDEAL conditions and good standard targets at the Nickolai Engineering 50 Target Sporting Clays Championships at the Loxton Field and Game Range last Sunday presented a perfect situation for Kevin Nickolai to continue his good form. The Loxton member won the A grade competition in the graded handicap event ahead of club mate Ray Pash, 58/50 to 52/50. Nickolai scored 23 from 25 in the first round and then a perfect 25/25 in the next. He has a handicap

of five targets per round compared with Pash who has six. In the B grade Eric (Gundy) Schmaal, 57/50, won from fellow Loxton shooter Rick Gibbs, 56/50 and locals also finished top two in the C grade with new member Bryce Eagle 61/50 ahead of Dave Farr, 53/50. A second event for the day the Loxton Irrigation Centre 25 Target Double Barrel saw a shoot off required in A grade between Schmaal, Nickolai and Pash after all shot 24/25.

A miss on his 22nd target eliminated Pash but with Schmaal and Nickolai both on 25/25 an extended shoot off was needed. After a short break and a restock of ammunition, Nickolai was the next to miss at the 27th target with Schmaal taking the win with 51/52. Farr, 22/25, won the B grade ahead of Renmark-Berri’s Clint Tippet 15/25 and after another shoot off, Jeremy Pippos (Loxton) 24/28 finished ahead of Eagle, 23/28, in the C grade.

Trimper shows that age is no barrier in local hockey ■ From Page 32 “In those days it wasn’t a female sport really, everyone had to play basketball and I didn’t really like it,” Trimper said. While Trimper enjoyed playing, she got her first taste of coaching in 1976 and also became involved in umpiring. “I think I am really lucky because I can see both sides of the game because I know what it’s like to be an umpire and I know what it’s like to be a player and I know what it’s like to be a coach,” she said. Over the years Trimper has played and coached across all levels of Riverland hockey winning up to 20 premierships, although she admits she has lost count. “You’d think I’d be a better player after that many games,” she laughed. “As a player, I’ve never considered myself to be a hugely talented player I just run around and help the team out as much as I can.” One of the more memorable premierships was last year’s B grade title, where Trimper played alongside sister Kris Weir. There have been many highlights across her 650 games but Trimper is more thankful for what the game has taught others

■ FLASHBACK: Rae Trimper hits the ball during the 1991 grand final at Renmark. and the knowledge she has been able to pass on. “I was delighted to coach young girls who went on to play state,” she said. “Some of those young girls, they coach our club teams and I would help them and so it developed them as players by coaching the teams. “There has been huge changes, many positive which is fantastic and it’s wonderful to have youngsters like Karri McMahon who is coming back here to our club and sharing all the wonderful coaching and knowledge she has from very humble beginnings.” Being involved in the education sector as principal of Loveday Primary School, Trimper has also been heavily involved in SAPSASA, where she has been

awarded life membership. “I don’t even think about my age until sometimes I see that it’s a 12-year-old I have to run against,” Trimper said. “I play against the kids I coach at SAPSASA, we have for years. “I remember one year, our B grade women’s team, I was 45 and the next oldest player was 15.” During her career, Trimper has also been able to play alongside her daughter Jodie with her son Simon also heavily involved in the local hockey scene at one stage. On top of her 650 games, what Trimper has given back to Riverland hockey is remarkable in itself and she is still currently Glassey Park Management Committee treasurer, Riverland Hockey treasurer and a Berri Hockey Club Committee member. She is a life member of the Berri Hockey Club, the Riverland Hockey Association and Hockey SA, as well as winning a Steve McFarlane contribution to sport in 1991. “There are a lot of people out there who do lots of

work and it is a bonus when you get appreciated for what you do,” Trimper said. “To me, I believe sport is healthy and you can’t have a sporting group without administration. “If you are going to have a complaint about something, do something about it and get in there.”

■ FUTURE: Riverlanders James Smith, Kira McMahon and Braden Casey recently represented South Australia in hockey. RIVERLAND junior hockey players James Smith, Kira McMahon and Braden Casey recently competed a national primary school hockey tournament. Smith, of Waikerie, who was also captain of the team and Casey, of Renmark were selected in the under 12 boys state primary school team, while McMahon, Berri played in the girls state team. Whilst the boys finished sixth and the girls came seventh, both teams were very competitive and improved significantly during the tournament. “The players will take a lot out of this tournament and have developed significantly as players,” A Riverland Hockey Association spokesperson said. “They will now be able to take what they have learnt from the tournament and assist players in their clubs to develop.”

RAE’S 650 GAMES

And counting... By BRAD PERRY RAE Trimper has proven that when it comes to playing a sport you love, age is no barrier. The Berri hockey player recently turned 60 years of age and along with that honour, also notched up her 650th game in the local competition. The remarkable feat was achieved over 45 years after Trimper started playing hockey for Renmark High School at the age of 15. It is Riverland hockey’s camaraderie and mateship that has kept Trimper involved over so many years and she has no intention of slowing down. “You are only as old as you feel and sometimes I feel like I’m 21,” she laughed. “I’ll keep playing

One round to go, Cobdogla and Lyrup battle for last finals position

for as long as I can run around.” Trimper began playing hockey at school but as soon as she was finished, it was time to head off to teacher’s college to pursue a career. “I wanted to play in Adelaide for Wattle Park Teachers’ College but I didn’t have a car and it was too hard to get around to the games so I ended up playing for Renmark,” she said. At the age of 21, Trimper married her husband Neville and moved to Berri where she swapped the Renmark colours for the red and blue. Trimper recalls that when she first began playing hockey, it was not the most popular sport for females. ■ Continued Page 31

Little Bottle Big Results Sold in over 30 countries around the world, TwinN is a reliable, cost effective selection of high yielding nitrogen fixing microbes for use as a soil improver in all crops, leguminous and non-leguminous. TwinN operates by converting atmospheric nitrogen into a plant available form. In effect, TwinN microbes function like millions of tiny nitrogen fertiliser factories to provide nitrogen in a readily available form directly to the plant tissues and root zone. Micro-organisms like TwinN are easy to apply and have proven to dramatically reduce synthetic nitrogen applications during a crop cycle. These organisms deliver a steady supply of nitrogen to crops, converting atmospheric N2 into useable plant forms, particularly ammonium, which helps to improve yields in lieu of excessive vegetative growth. Reductions of more than 50% synthetic N can be made with improved results for stronger, healthier and more resilient crops. Another plus for the use of these nitrogen-fixing microbes is the dramatic reduction in the carbon footprint, which may be of benefit to growers in the near future with a carbon trading scheme on the horizon.

AVAILABLE NOW AT BIO-TECH ORGANICS

TwinN is designed for use in combination with conventional cropping practices where it enables large reductions in the need for chemical nitrogen fertilisers. It is also used in fully organic cropping systems where it has proven to be an effective source of nitrogen. The spiraling costs of urea and other chemical nitrogen sources is placing increasing pressures on profitability and TwinN has proven effective in reducing, or eliminating, the needs for these fertilisers in a wide variety of cropping systems. TwinN will greatly reduce the cost of supplying nitrogen to your crops. Replacing nitrogen fertilisers with TwinN results in an enriched soil microbe population, better nutrient availability and will rebuild your general soil health and associated crop vigour.
