Champion combo us this year was too tempting to pass up. Plus, he was Shane’s number one choice to share his Red Bull Holden Racing Team Commodore. We try to give our drivers what they ask for.”

After a stellar first year with the team, van Gisbergen is looking to continue his momentum into 2017, already with his eyes fixed on bringing home the PIRTEK Enduro Cup for the second year in a row with Campbell by his side.

“Last year you could see that in every race Matt was fast and consistent, and that’s what you want,” van Gisbergen said.

“The enduros pretty much set up the championship. To have someone who is fast and doesn’t make mistakes is a no-brainer, especially when so many points are riding on it.”

Ahead of his Supercars codriving duties, Campbell has been busy preparing for his first season competing in the Porsche SuperCup in Europe.

“It’s been quite a busy offseason readying myself for my first season racing outside Australia, keeping up my training for a big year ahead.”

Campbell will co-drive van Gisbergen’s Holden Commodore VF at the Sandown 500, Bathurst 1000 and Gold Coast 600 for 2017.

Matt Campbell's motor racing career continues to go from strength to strength as he does his home town of Warwick proud.

12337221-DJ03-17

The Red Bull Holden Racing Team is excited to welcome Warwick’s Matt Campbell to join Shane van Gisbergen as co-driver in the No.97 Holden Commodore VF for 2017.

The current Carrera Cup champion made his Supercars debut last year at the three endurance events and impressed the field. Now teaming up with reigning Supercars champion van Gisbergen, he will be taking on the PIRTEK Enduro Cup with the six-time Bathurst 1000-winning outfit.

“I am so excited and grateful for this opportunity with the championship-winning team,” Matt said.

“There is no doubt that it is going to be a big year, but after my debut in Supercars last year I do feel that I was able to gain the experience for what is required of me in this position. To be able to drive with the 2016 champ is pretty awesome.“ Red Bull Holden Racing Team managing director Roland Dane reckons the 21-yearold ticks all the boxes when it comes to co-driving with van Gisbergen.

“We’ve been watching Matt for a while now and have been super impressed by his speed and maturity driving a range of different cars,“ Dane said.

“The chance to have such a great young talent driving with

Social media headache for council?

Casey’s tips

By Jeremy Sollars Along with allegations of bullying of staff, the Free Times has learned the council enforces strict rules on the use of social media - and its reach on public commentary extends beyond its own workforce.

It is understood that the council’s chief executive officer David Keenan has at times responded by email to comments made by non-council staff - residents and ratepayers - on social media, which the council has perceived as negative.

A range of members on the Facebook page ‘SDRC - Public Forum For Any Concerns’ have reported direct contact from the CEO after posting their views on council activity and of having been effectively told to “tone it down”.

Likewise, a former media identity in the region - now working elsewhere - has also commented on the site that while covering SDRC issues they regularly received emails from the CEO insisting coverage be wound back, saying they felt they were being “bullied and intimidated into silence”.

As far as staff commenting in public forums, the council enforces a strict policy on staff talking to the media and also utilising social media, with warnings over use of the latter, such as Facebook, extending to “spouses and close relatives”.

Section 5.1.2 of the council’s Media Relations Policy states “Public comment by staff: Council staff should only make public comment in relation to council matters where they have been expressly authorised to do so, by the CEO and their director in accordance with section 5.1 of this policy.

“Council staff, their spouses and close relatives, should refrain from providing personal public comment on council operations, policy or de-

cisions, including on social media channels such as Facebook, YouTube, Twitter, Instagram, LinkedIn, and other forums including blogs, video/ photo posting sites, forums and online chat services, in accordance with council’s Code of Conduct Policy and the Media Relations Policy.”

But that section appears to be at odds with the council’s staff Code of Conduct, which states: “The rights of employees to free

speech are acknowledged. Where you feel the need to speak out in public on a political or social matter, it should be made clear that they are your personal views being expressed and that these do not represent the views of the council.

“The comments should not lead to a breach of confidentiality. This clause also applies to employees using social media including social networks, blogs, video/photo posting

sites, forums and online chat services.

“Examples of Social Media include Facebook, YouTube and Twitter. Council recognises that employees may wish to use social media in a personal capacity, however they should be aware they are personally responsible for content they publish on any form of social media, and should take measures to ensure their personal comments cannot be mistaken for the official view of council.”

5.1.2 Standards of Conduct - Behaviour towards each other: Employees should treat other employees with respect, honesty, courtesy, fairness, and sensitivity, regardless of their employment status within the council. This includes being tolerant of, and not dismissing the views held by others which may be different from the employee’s own view. Council values diversity, and expects all its employees, contractors, volunteers or those in work experience placements to accommodate and respect different opinions and perspectives, and to manage interpersonal disagreements by rational debate. You must not behave towards any other person in a way that could be perceived as intimidating, overbearing or bullying, or that may constitute unwelcome conduct of a sexual nature.

Effective teamwork is an essential part of a productive workplace culture. Each team member needs to work co-operatively with fellow staff and actively and willingly take part in team activities such as meetings and training. Discrimination and Harassment: Council is committed to creating and maintaining a workplace free from discrimination and harassment. Employees must not discriminate against, harass (including sexual, racial and ageist), bully, insult, intimidate or mistreat customers, employees or members of the public.

‘Bully’ claims hit council

By Jeremy Sollars

Where is the duty of care?

Other staff members and their partners have said bullying and frequent written warnings from management are “tearing families apart”.

Several were reluctant to speak publicly - even on condition of anonymity - for fear they would later be identified and subjected to disciplinary action, or sacked.

The recurring comment is that “staff at all levels are fearful of speaking out”.

One employee of more than 20 years standing said while he had not personally been subjected to intimidation he felt morale had plummeted in recent years, particularly since the amalgamation of the Warwick and Stanthorpe shires in 2008.

He said he knew of colleagues who had asked to be trained for higher roles and had been refused for no clear reason, while others in similar roles had been advanced, and of other staff who appeared to have been targeted for making complaints about lack of maintenance on council plant and equipment.

“Some of them just get treated like a doormat,” he told the Free Times.

“There have been quite a number (of staff) who’ve gone on stress leave - the attitude of some of the managers and supervisors I would definitely say has contributed to that.

“Some of them are very angry and I don’t blame them.

“I know a couple of blokes who have left, walked away from council, and are now working elsewhere and they’re happy as Larry.

“Since amalgamation there has been tension upstairs in senior management - the boys in the rank and file are the ones who cop it.

“I believe the hierarchy are putting a wedge between the Warwick and Stanthorpe staff - they need to be reined in.

“And there is just an overall ‘them and us’ attitude between senior management and rank and file staff - I would agree there is intimidation.

“There is a lot of stress - at the end of the day what we all want to do is go to work and come home and unwind.

“Stress from work carries into your home life.”

The same employee also said a number of staff who had taken stress leave - officially recorded as sick leave - had been grilled by management about how long they’d been off work, instead of being offered support and professional counselling.

He also said when staff came back from stress leave they were usually placed on “light duties” as a way of council avoiding potential compensation claims.

Another worker simply said - “Morale is s--t”.

“Blokes come to work and they just don’t want to be there,” he said.

Council’s response The Free Times forwarded a series of questions to Mayor Tracy Dobie asking how many staff had resigned and had taken stress leave in the last two years, how many had been offered counselling and other treatment for stress-related illnesses and if she and the CEO were concerned about the allegations of a culture of bullying and intimidation within the council.

We received a statement in response from the CEO, Mr Keenan, which is printed here in full: “As with any large organisation there may be individuals whose expectations may not be met,” the statement read.

$19.95/kg

David Keenan “Council provides an environment where employees are treated fairly and equitably. Any formal complaints regarding bullying and intimidation are taken seriously by council and investigated accordingly.

“All resignations received from staff since 1 January 2015 have been voluntary.

“Any type of leave taken by staff or applications for workers’ compensation submitted are confidential in nature and details cannot be disclosed.

“In relation to any disciplinary action, it is council practice to consistently offer the Employee Assistance Program which involves the provision of confidential counselling services.

“If you or someone you know is in an emergency, or at immediate risk of self-harm, council encourages you to contact suicide and crisis support organisations such as BeyondBlue 1300 224 636 or Lifeline 13 11 14.”

“I have been verbally abused and sworn at by supervisors in front of other staff - it’s a multitude of things but a lot of it is just the way they speak to you.

“If they don’t like someone it’s basically, ‘Get out of my f----n’ way’.

“The system is creating angst and division among the blokes on the ground, there is so much favouritism that goes on and people are being set up to fail.”

The partner of another current worker said her husband had worked for another regional council in Queensland before moving to Warwick and said the difference was stark.

“It was like a family at (name of council withheld) - if anyone had a problem everyone would help out,” she said.

“The managers would say hello to you in the street and people were happy to do extra in their jobs.

“But it’s different here - staff get brought in and sworn at over the on-call roster and what hours they’ve done.

“People are quitting because they’re sick from stress - I think a lot of it is to do with cost-cutting on services to save money.

“There is a big fear factor - people are threatened they will lose their job if they make trouble or claim certain allowances.

“It makes me feel sick to see my husband coming home looking tired and exhausted all the time - he is covered in a rash from stress - and the kids are always asking why.”

The Free Times has been told other staff felt they had been targeted over logging complaints about plant and machinery maintenance - even after being encouraged by the council’s chief executive officer David Keenan to send ‘Postcards to the CEO’ advising of breakdowns and the like, so that he could personally intervene.

Union membership within council ranks is understood to have increased in recent years, but some staff haven’t joined the relevant union - the Australian Workers’ Union - again for fear of being targeted.

Administration Assistant

12336788-HM03-17

Southern Downs Regional Council employees and their family members - have spoken out about what they claim is a culture of “bullying and intimidation” by management within the council, one of the region’s largest employers.

The Free Times has spoken with a range of sources whose identities we have chosen to protect - in some cases due to fears of retribution for current council employees - who have gone as far as to claim that the stress and depression being experienced by some staff has led to mental breakdowns and even fears of self-harm and suicide on the part of their loved ones.

As one source put it simply - “Someone is going to end up in a box”.

The Free Times has been told of long-standing and mature male council employees coming home after receiving disciplinary and other warnings and “bursting into tears”, along with experiencing emotional withdrawal from their partners and their children.

Others have said they have been so fearful of making even minor errors in the course of their duties that co-workers have offered to do their work for them out of concern for their mental well-being - and have spoken of seeing colleagues “visibly shaking” while on the job.

The allegations come primarily from staff employed in ‘frontline’ operational areas of the council but the Free Times understands morale is also low among administrative staff and lower levels of management.

The partner of one worker said her husband arrived home recently after a work incident with a disciplinary notice for an absence the day after a serious bullying incident to which he was subjected.

“He walked through the door and tossed the notice down to me and proceeded out to the shed,” she said.

“I went out there and here he is, sitting on the floor next to the car with his arms around his knees, just bawling.

“I told the kids to go out there and give him a hug - I was in tears myself wondering what was going on inside his head, what he might think of doing to himself.

“I’ve heard him talking in his sleep about work, and he’s even said to me a few times, “What do I have to do to get someone to listen?

Top myself?”.’

The Free Times has been told former staff members who quit the council due to ongoing mental health issues caused by management practices had experienced “meltdowns in public” while at work.

Some current and former employees have anxiety issues even driving into the town hall car park, with some sources saying employees often refer to the main council building in Warwick as “The White House”.

But perhaps the most telling of all are the words of the young child of a current council employee who recently penned a letter - not yet sent - to council management, without any prompting from her parents, pleading with them to address the work culture.

“I am sick of my dad coming home stressed and depressed because of work. Please, take notice of how much stress you have caused my family,” the child wrote.

“At my school we learn about integrity and nurturing. I feel these are things you do not represent ... ”

As a result of community concerns raised in Stanthorpe over the condition of public parkland left following the weekend of 7 January, local police conducted a number of targeted foot patrols of the main creek-side park areas off Wolfram Street and beside the Information Centre. In all, four tickets were issued to several persons for the offence of consuming liquor in a public place and a quantity of alcohol was destroyed. The tickets will cost each recipient $121. Police will continue to monitor the situation and take enforcement action where necessary and appropriate, to ensure the safety and enjoyment of the park area by all community members, their families and visitors to the area.

Meeting on camping

12336750-CG03-17

Dalveen residents are being urged to attend a meeting at the Dalveen Sports Club tonight at 7.30pm, to discuss a council proposal to allow paid camping in Jim Mitchell Park.

The council has committed to undertaking community consultation on the proposal but is yet to release details of how and when this will occur.

Inquiries to Dalveen Sports Club president Phil Zikan on 0438 410 124.

Residents in the vicinity of a proposed $40 million wind farm in the Dalveen and Pozieres districts on the Granite Belt are determined to fight the project right to the bitter end.

As reported in the Free Times in December Brisbane-based wind farm proponent Tim Lucas finally got the all-clear on the project from the Southern Downs Regional Council in late November after nearly three years of haggling over council conditions and objections from locals.

The previous Southern Downs Regional Council originally refused the plan but Mr Lucas appealed and has now accepted renegotiated council conditions to allow his plan to proceed.

Mr Lucas has down-sized the wind farm - to be built on land at Rabbit Fence Road - from eight to six turbines and the project would require a three kilometre section of new 33 KV powerline from the wind farm to the main Ergon powerline into Stanthorpe.

Mr Lucas conceded last year he is still seeking funding for the project and has no formal finalised agreement in place to supply power from the wind farm to Ergon Energy.

But while the plan may be very much in the pipedream category right now, local residents are not taking anything for granted.

Their primary objection is that fact that there are some 40 residences within a two kilometre radius of each of the six planned turbines, which are expected to be 80 metres high with each requiring the equivalent of two Olympic swimming pools of concrete as foundations, with turbine blades typically measuring 50 metres or more in length.

The blades and other components would be manufactured overseas.

The wind farm would also have a solar panel installation and up to six back-up diesel generators.

The residents are concerned about noise and the visual blight on the picturesque region, along with property devaluation and what they say is the impossibility of the developer physically transporting the massive components to the site for construction, given the inadequate road net-

On Wednesday afternoon, 11 January, Stanthorpe police were called to attend an incident at a Manning Street residence. It will be alleged that shortly after 2pm, a 23-year-old male resident of the address was seriously assaulted by two other men while in the yard of the residence.

In brief Tougher stance on trouble

“It will help offset the emission of greenhouse gases from traditional coal fired power stations,” Cr Dobie said.

“It also sends a message to investors that the Southern Downs is open for business and we are keen to attract investment in major projects in our region that offer positive outcomes for jobs, for the environment, for the community and businesses, and for allied industries like tourism.”

Council believes the project will create up to 30 jobs and says construction would be expected

to take around six months and could be completed by the end of 2017.

Mr Lucas told the Free Times last year that while there’s “not a conga line” of financial backers lining up to help him fund the $40 million project he’s confident work will start by mid2017.

Mr Lucas - who lives at Rochedale in Brisbane’s south and runs a plumbing supply business based in Sydney - first announced his plans in early 2013, at a time when Ergon Energy was looking at duplicating its existing 110KV line from Warwick to Stanthorpe to boost Stanthorpe’s short and long-term power demand.

He claims his wind farm could generate

around 7.5 megawatts daily to help feed Stanthorpe, claiming the town’s current daily demand is 12Mw. Wind farm turbines typically stand between 60 and 120 metres in height and have been opposed in other parts of Australia due to concerns primarily over noise.

Mr Lucas would not reveal to the Free Times how much of the $40 million required for his wind farm had already raised, saying it was “commercially sensitive”.

He said at that time discussions with Ergon Energy had begun but were “not well advanced” at the present time.

Solar farm planned for block near town

By Jeremy Sollars Renewable energy projects seem to be the flavour of the month on the Southern Downs and Granite Belt.

The Southern Downs Regional Council has received an application for a solar farm on a block of land owned by William Dwan on the Cunningham Highway just out of town near the Caltex roadhouse.

The applicant is Gold Coast-based firm Zero Development Projects, headed up by business

identity Ahmed El Safty, well-known on the coast for developing the Burleigh Beach Pavilion and its controversial rooftop bar in the late 2000s, with the property having been in the hands of receivers since 2012.

Also associated with the solar farm project is Craig Kenway, another Gold Coast identity with a long association with the Warwick area.

Mr Kenway first came to prominence locally in 2007 when he was investigated for alleged illegal tree-clearing by the NSW Department of Primary Industries on one of his properties on Vine-

gar Hill Road, just over the border from Killarney at New Koreelah.

Mr Kenway’s firm Scenic Rim Holdings also owned properties at Yangan, Freestone and Gladfield which in 2009 were placed on the market by receivers McGrath Nicol after action instituted by Elders Rural Bank, along with Scenic Rim Holdings property at Kooralbyn in the Gold Coast hinterland.

The solar farm plan is to construct nearly 50,000 solar panels over 12 stages on the 30-hectare site over three years.

A Fitzroy Street business owner fed up with juveniles causing trouble around his premises has called for a tougher stance on poor youth behaviour.

The owner, who declined to be identified, called police late on Monday 16 January, after a group of young teens once again congregated outside his business, having done so a number of times in recent weeks.

The group has been repeatedly annoying customers, throwing glass bottles at the venue’s windows, spitting on the pavement and harassing staff, to the point where the business owner took matters into his own hands shortly after 5pm on Monday.

He and a member of the public physically detained one particularly mouthy member of the group - who had just thrown a glass bottle at a window - until police arrived, saying it was “time for these kids to pull their heads in”.

A Warwick police spokesman said police had been called to a business at the corner of Palmerin and Fitzroy streets around 5pm.

“A number of parents were called in as the incident involved several juveniles,” the spokesman said.

“Police took details of those involved and we will pursue any complaint accordingly.”

He said no charges had been laid as yet over the incident but said investigations were “ongoing”.

Glassing assault case A woman charged over a glassing incident at the Warwick RSL, appeared in the Warwick Magistrates’ Court on Wednesday 11 January.

Natasha Stephanie-Lee Slatter, 22, has been charged with unlawful wounding following an incident police allege took place in an outdoor smoking area of the Warwick RSL at around 12.15am on Sunday 8 January.

Police allege Slatter attacked another female patron with a glass after a verbal altercation.

The alleged victim, aged in her 40s, required stitches after receiving a large cut to her face.

Slatter is due to appear again in the Warwick Magistrates’ Court on Monday 6 March.

LNP nominations are closed

By Jeremy Sollars Southern Downs Deputy Mayor Jo McNally and her colleague Councillor Cameron Gow have both nominated for the LNP candidacy for Southern Downs at the next State Election, party sources have said.

Nominations for the LNP candidacy closed on Monday, 15 January, following the announcement late last year by veteran Southern Downs MP Lawrence Springborg that he would retire from state politics at the next election.

The next State Election is due in January 2018 but it is widely thought ALP Premer Annastacia Palaszczuk will call an early election,

Editorial

Some real issues for council staff

possibly in February.

Also understood to have put their hands up for pre-selection as the LNP candidate for Southern Downs are Goondiwindi councillor Rob McKenzie, along with at least two other local LNP members.

The LNP refused to release the full list of candidates to the Free Times this week, with State Director Lincoln Folo saying party members “who have submitted a nomination are prohibited from publicly speaking about their nomination without the express permission of the Party President or State Director”.

Mr Folo said the LNP would name its successful candidate “as soon as we can”.

It is understood that LNP members wishing to nominate are required to pay a non-refundable fee of close to $2000, as well as be subjected to an extensive “vetting” process, including an examination of their financial affairs.

Hotly rumoured to be running as the One Nation candidate for Southern Downs is former deputy mayor Ross Bartley.

Mr Bartley was unavailable for comment at the time of printing of this week’s Free Times, but he has previously laughed off suggestions of a career in state politics when asked by us.

One Nation’s media spokesman Sean Bell did not return several calls from the Free Times this week asking

if they had selected a candidate.

The ALP and The Greens are yet to announce candidates for Southern Downs.

the convenience of all concerned for both cattle and sheep producers and all other personnel involved in the cattle and sheep industries.

I have used this facility since day one and I also have a son who uses the same facility and we are both satisfied in every way. I have never heard any complaints about the saleyards.

The saleyards in question have recently undergone extensive and expensive upgrades to bring it up to the required standards for national accreditation.

Why do we need a new facility as stated by the new Saleyards Advisory Committee, which they have estimated to cost $15 million so that we will be able to handle 2500 head of cattle?

In the recent drought our yards handled 2400-plus head of cattle on more than one occasion. I am sure if the need arises to handle goats as has been suggested by our worthy advisory committee (it will be done) $15 million to handle 100 extra head of cattle and maybe a handful of goats, to my way of thinking it is ludicrous

to even suggest the demolition of the present saleyards, which is a firstclass facility.

As for the question of future development, the yards have at their disposal the paddocks to the north side of the yards. Plenty of room there for future development, goat and pig pens.

Let us not forget that all the users of the yard have paid for the upgrading of the municipal yards by way of yard levies etc since its inception.

The municipal yards as they are now are open to all stock producers and their agents. The suggestion that private entries take over the running of the saleyards is also of major concern.

This could be to a monopoly dictating who could or could not sell stock through the saleyards, also who could or could not transport stock to or from the said yards.

Agents, stock transport owners, stock producers with their own stock transport could be disadvantaged by such a monopoly.

It should be remembered that past

councils, Glengallan, Rosenthal, Allora and Warwick City Councils, provided a large input into the original structure of the municipal saleyards foundation for the common good of their ratepayers and stock producers in area and also outside surrounds etc.

A much wider public discussion about the suggestion of the so-called new Saleyards Advisory Committee and the committee’s proposal to “Knock it down” and rebuild on the suggested 80 acres should take place before any action to sell or demolish takes place.

I would like to take the opportunity to thank the editor Mr Jeremy Sollars of the Free Times, our local news publication, for his report of this very important proposal.

It would appear that no other newspaper felt that such an article, with such widespread ramifications to our stock producers and their agents etc, was worth the printed word.

N.P. McConville, Swan Creek.

By Jeremy Sollars

Jo McNally.

Letters Don’t knock it With reference to your report dated 22 December 2016, 'Saleyards committee says knock it down’.

I write to you as a very concerned cattle producer and ratepayer of the Southern Downs Regional Council.

The report I refer to appeared on pages 1 and 3 of that edition. I must say the approach taken by the new Saleyards Advisory Committee fills me with alarm to say the least.

To knock down a perfectly good working facility that any council would be proud to own, one that has in May 2016 received national accreditation and must therefore be considered to be in first-class condition and of a very high standard, so why knock it down and replace it with a new facility which will cost a huge sum of money ($15 million is the committee’s estimate), for the proposed 80-acre block and new structure.

The location of our municipal saleyards could not be better-placed for

Having spoken with a large number of separate sources in relation to the state of staff morale at the Southern Downs Regional Council, I am satisfied the problem is not confined to a disgruntled and isolated minority.

Work-related stress from a management culture of intimidation is common across both public and private sector organisations in today’s workplaces.

The costs are enormous - to the mental health of employees and their families and the cost of absences from work.

I have found it most distressing to speak with some of the sources involved in today’s coverage, especially when there is talk of self-harm and suicide.

I have had partners in tears in front of me - there have been a number of very close calls involving council staff members pushed right to the edge, and who almost didn’t come home in one particularly upsetting instance.

In the past these kinds of workplace issues have been treated with indifference by the community as a whole, particularly when it comes to the potential for selfharm. We are slowly breaking down the barriers around mental health - including depression, anxiety and post-traumatic stress disorder - and we need to keep this public conversation going.

From where I sit, our council management needs a huge re-boot on staff relations. Obviously there is a drive to save money given the council’s current financial position, but need it come at the cost of the mental well-being of staff?

The council is losing good workers because of the management culture, and the staff who are still there - and their partners and children - are suffering big time.

Missing sign of the times Arts Scene with Sue Keong Following the mysterious disappearance of the Warwick Artists’ Group Art Studio number 21 sign in 2016, WAG are offering a special rate for twenty-first painted signs for 21st birthday parties or 21 house numbers, other numbers by request.

Shirley Monaghan, Warwick Artists’ Life Member, smiled as she said - “The exact date when the sign went missing is unknown but we thought rather than worry about its loss, we should look at it as an opportunity to fill an obvious gap in the twenty-first sign market.“ Contact Sue 0402 460 919 if you would like your painted sign.

‘Tribute in stone’ International and local sculptors paid tribute to Society of Sculptors Queensland past president Graig Medson at Beaudesert recently. Craig sadly took his own life before he was able to be one of the five sculptors for the Wyaralong sculpture

symposium of last year. This design was supposed to be made by Craig at the 2014 symposium.

Called the Sunday Ride, Paul Stumkat, Luke Zwolesman, Silvio Apponyi, Thomas Reifferschied and Birgit Grapiten have each been working together on a sandstone component of what is a giant stone bike. Each sculptor has added their own subtle artistic component to the project.

Craig’s widow, Fiona Medson, has been directing.

The sculpture has been installed at Wyaralong dam. The project was organised by BADCAP - Beaudesert and District Community Arts Projects - a non-profit organisation of enthusiastic locals keen on seeing art in their shire.

Wyaralong dam has many mountain bike tracks to ride on, so grab your bike and come out for a ride.

We all have good days and bad days.

Then there are those days when something isn’t quite right, you’ve got something on your mind, or things just seem too much.

Whatever it may be, sharing the load with someone else can really help. So no matter who you are, or how you’re feeling, you can talk it through.

Aerial bait is an issue

Unusual case of hendra virus EQUINE Veterinarians Australia (EVA) says the latest hendra virus case near Casino, which resulted in the death of a horse just before Christmas, reveals unusual signs and aspects of the disease.

The Casino property has been quarantined since the death of the horse on Friday 23 December.

The horse was being treated by a vet before its death and samples were then sent to the NSW Department of Primary Industries for testing.

The lab then confirmed the hendra virus.

Those who handled the horse are being monitored by NSW Health.

It is understood the horse had been in a paddock with regular flying fox activity.

It was the first case of hendra virus in NSW in 2016.

EVA spokesman Dr Ben Poole said the case made dealing with hendra even

more complicated and concerning.

“The facts of the case would suggest the horse may have initially received a low infectious dose of the virus that eventually led to the horse succumbing to the disease, after an unusually protracted illness,” Dr Poole said.

“What’s different about this case is that the horse initially tested negative for hendra virus after losing weight for two weeks and presenting with a sore mouth.

“It was given medication and the horse started recuperating while in quarantine on the farm.

“A week later the horse deteriorated rapidly and died a few days later. A nasal swab taken from the carcass a week after the horse died returned a positive test for hendra virus. Further testing of tissue samples indicated that the horse had mounted an immune response to the virus.”

Dr Poole said this demonstrated the

difficulty of making an initial diagnosis of hendra virus infection, and highlighted the risk that hendra virus posed to anyone including horse owners, vets and those who came into contact with horses displaying vague signs of illness.

“That’s why vaccination of horses against hendra virus is important for managing the risks involved with the disease,” he said.

“The summer timing of this case in the Northern Rivers is unusual and is probably due to food shortages and environmental stress on the bats in the area - so it’s really important to be vigilant all year round.”

Horse owners should contact their local veterinarian for more information about the hendra virus vaccination.

SOUTHERN Downs Regional Council and landholders have enjoyed successful wild dog control and subsequent reduction in wild dog impacts in much of the region, but serious impacts are still being felt in others, such as the Main Range area.

This was highlighted over the Christmas/New Year period with North Branch Maryvale landholder Bob King losing three calves to wild dogs.

Mr King witnessed five wild dogs attacking one of his calves in the middle of the day and lost two others.

“I couldn’t believe it when I saw five wild dogs on one calf in the middle of the day.

“We have lost calves before which I’ve put down to mismothering and other causes, but I now believe wild dogs may be responsible for more losses than I’d realised.

“It was certainly a big wake-up call to me and my neighbours and we are desperately keen to bring the problem under control.

“No one can afford to keep losing cattle at today’s prices, not to mention the anguish of wondering what you might find in the paddock each day,” he said.

Council has recognised the Main Range area as a strategic wild dog breeding and dispersal source.

Just prior to Christmas, landholders in the Goomburra, North Branch, Maryvale and Freestone localities were invited to participate in Council’s upcoming aerial 1080 program, planned for April 2017.

Southern Downs Manager Environmental Services, Tim O’Brien said Council’s Invasive Pests Strategic Plan 2016-2020 requires landholders in relevant areas to actively participate in best practice wild dog control.

“For most, that means participation in Council-run coordinated 1080 ground baiting programs.

“For those landholders in identified strategic habitat and dispersal areas that are inaccessible by ground, it means participation in Council’s aerial baiting program,” Mr O’Brien said.

Council has been fortunate to secure funding to deliver strategic aerial baiting of inaccessible wild dog habitat, predominantly in the traprock sheep and wool growing region, over the past two years.

This program has been very successful in reducing wild dog impacts on sheep and has had added benefits to native wildlife.

Craig Magnussen, Council Pest Management Officer, highlighted that prior to the introduction of aerial baiting, landholders in the Goldfields locality were typically losing 200 - 300 sheep per year to wild dogs.

“Losses are now negligible. We have a series of remote cameras es-

tablished at strategic locations to alert us to when dispersing wild dogs from further afield may be moving into previously baited country.

“Excitingly, we have seen a marked increase in the number and variety of native wildlife captured on camera in these areas, such as quolls, koalas, scrub turkeys and lyrebirds.

“We believe this shows that aerial baiting is also beneficial to wildlife by removing introduced predators such as wild dogs, foxes and cats,” Mr Magnussen said.

Council’s Pest Management Officer James Eastwell was enthusiastic about the prospect of bringing aerial baiting to the Main Range area.

“Council is encouraging participation from all landholders, regardless of whether they run stock or not.

“Some landholders may not be aware they have wild dogs living on or travelling through their land, but all have a responsibility to undertake control.

“Aerial baiting is all about putting baits in the areas where wild dogs are likely to encounter them and with so much habitat in this area, we need to be comprehensive,” said Mr Eastwell.

Funding for the Southern Downs Regional Council Queensland Feral Pest Initiative project is provided through the Queensland Government to support the growth of a productive and prosperous food and fibre sector in Queensland. Funding has also been provided through the Australian Government Agricultural Competitiveness White Paper, the Australian Government’s plan for stronger farmers and a stronger economy.

The project is being delivered in partnership with Goondiwindi Regional Council, Granite Borders Landcare Committee and Biosecurity Queensland.

Not a lot of rain in sight HEATWAVES, but some rain due in February - TERRY WEST shares his weather outlook for the next few weeks ...

A few storms moved through during last week, bringing muchneeded rain to the land. There is a chance of patchy storms in the next few days then the patterns dry off to hot and dry conditions.

This month is looking dry and hot once again with only a few rain days on the horizon.

The ENSO - El Nino-Southern Oscillation - remains neutral this month with only a slight leaning toward La Nina near the Dateline.

This means SEQ will see limited rainfall and warmer conditions throughout the month of January and into February.

The Southern Annular Mode or SAM - is still on a northerly

shift, meaning westerly winds and high pressure systems will dominate the northern parts of the country, leading to fine and hot days.

Another model, the hemispheric long wave pattern, is used to determine the effects on our weather of upper troughs near Australia.

Recently, the long-wave pattern has remained stable with six main troughs being the most significant.

Southern and eastern Australia should see some cold front events bringing widespread rain about 2 February to 6 February, 9 February to 13 February and 14 February to 18 February, with rain events from the north around 21 January to 25 January and 18 February to 22 February.

What’s On

Casey’s tips

Come on Aussies, come on Southern Downs Regional Council is inviting everyone to show their ‘Aussie’ pride and join in the Australia Day celebrations at Glengallan Homestead and Heritage Centre next Thursday January 26.

Southern Downs Mayor Tracy Dobie said Australia Day is the perfect opportunity to have a family day out and celebrate everything that is great about Australia.

“Australia Day at Glengallan is all about family friendly fun with lots of activities on offer.

“It’s also a significant opportunity to pay tribute to our local heroes with the Australia Day Awards and to welcome new Australians at our citizenship ceremony and I’m very much looking forward to being a part of this important civic event on Australia Day. “Australia Day celebrations are a much anticipated highlight for the community and many locals return every year.

“So I would encourage you to mark the date on your calendar, come along and bring your chair and picnic blanket and join in what is sure to be a crackin’ good old Aussie day!” she said.

The Glengallan Australia Day Committee has put together a great program of family friendly activities, so there will be a hive of activity starting from 8am and continuing on through to the afternoon.

The historic Glengallan Homestead

and Heritage Centre will open to the public from 8am with markets in the gardens together with Australia Day favourites and good old Aussie entertainment.

There will be plenty to keep the kids entertained with a jumping castle, bungee run, face painting and animal nursery.

The official proceedings will start at 10am including the citizenship ceremony, Australia Day messages and the

northern region Australia Day awards ceremony.

The mayor also highlighted that Council had taken on board feedback from the community about difficulties some residents faced in getting out to Glengallan, and consequently will be providing a free shuttle bus this year to Glengallan Homestead.

“The free shuttle bus will depart from the Warwick Library at 8am and again at 9am to transport people to

Glengallan for the Australia Day celebrations.

“Bookings are essential, so I would urge anyone interested in using the shuttle bus service to reserve their seat as soon as possible,” she said.

To reserve your seat on the bus, contact the Warwick Visitor Information Centre on 4661 3122, email warwick.vic@sdrc.qld.gov.au or book online at www.warwicktickets.com.au.

The mayor also noted that other smaller communities across the region would be celebrating Australia Day in their own way and she encouraged residents to support and participate in these local events.

For more information about Australia Day celebrations visit Council’s website or contact Council on 1300 MY SDRC (1300 697 372).

Stanthorpe will celebrate Australia Day at Weeroona Park and the Stanthorpe Australia Day Committee has put together a great program of familyfriendly activities, so there will be a hive of activity starting as early as 6.30am and continuing on through to 8pm.

The day will kick off bright and early at 6.30am with the Southern Downs Tri Club’s popular family triathlon, and the first battle off the blocks at 7am.

“The triathlon is a great opportunity for all ages to have a go as there are two courses including one for juniors under 12,” said Mayor Tracy Dobie.

The open tri course comprises 400m swim, 10km cycle and 3.5km run.

The junior (under 12) tri

course comprises 100m swim, 4km cycle and 1km run.

Entry forms are available from the Stanthorpe Pool, Council’s Community contact centres in Stanthorpe and Warwick, and from Redback Cycles and Creed and Lang in Warwick.

The Mercantile Relay at noon will see many family rivals being joined by groups of friends and community teams to contest the Camille Cantrell Cup. All ages can contest the relay with handicapping making the relay very interesting to watch, with no one being able to predict a winner. This event is all about swimming consistent times over the number of laps needed to eliminate the other teams.

The Stanthorpe Pool will have free entry from 2pm and this coincides with the start of the main celebratory activities and entertainment in Weeroona Park.

The formal part of the day will start at 3.45pm and includes flag raising, a citizenship ceremony, Australia Day messages and the southern region Australia Day awards ceremony.

The good old favourites of billy boiling, chainsaw races and woodchops will be joined

by Kent Saddlery’s whip cracking and some face painting and art and craft activities for kids.

The park will have refreshments and food available and celebrations will continue on into the evening with live entertainment from our talented locals and band Speak Easy.

first-home buyer grant - would help stimulate real estate sales and give a much-needed boost to the local economies.”

By extending the Great Start

Grant to include established homes in regional Queensland it could also improve the success of the grant.

“The grant is struggling to gain traction in regional and central Queensland because buyers do not wish to build and the cost of building can be higher than buying an established home,” Ms Mercorella said.

“From 2012 to April 2016 only 4505 grants were accessed throughout regional Queensland - which is just 1100 grants a year compared to the 12,944 grants that have assisted first-home buyers in south-east Queensland.”

The REIQ together with Queensland’s regional mayors urges Mr Pitt to extend the grant, which would help more people in regional Queensland by bringing buyers to the vast market of established homes.

“These markets don’t need more homes built,” Ms Mercorella said.

“They need buyers for the oversupply of established homes,” she said.

“It is within Mr Pitt’s power to bring those buyers to the market and help regional Queensland whether this continuing economic downturn,” she said.

THE Real Estate Institute of Queensland (REIQ) is leading a united, state-wide push from regional local governments, urging State Treasurer Curtis Pitt to expand the first-home buyer grant in regional Queensland to include established homes to help regional markets recover.

REIQ CEO Antonia Mercorella sent a letter, signed by 11 regional mayors, including the mayors of some of the largest and hardesthit towns of Mackay, Townsville, Rockhampton and Gladstone, as well as all 12 leaders of the Far North Queensland Regional Organisation of Councils, to Treasurer Curtis Pitt urging him to expand the grant.

“The economy in regional and central Queensland has drastically slowed due to the mining downturn and the property market, which is directly tied to jobs, has also slumped,” Ms Mercorella said.

“Some areas, such as North Mackay, South Mackay, Bucasia and Black’s Beach, have lost almost 30 per cent from the value of their homes over the past five years and they desperately need help arresting this continued decline,” she said.

LEO—July 23-August 22 Saving is the current byword. With ingenuity, you can save a signiicant sum. A colleague or neighbour may appear aloof earlier in the week.

VIRGO—August 23-September 22 Healthwise, be sure to question instructions that are not clear. The accent is on quality over quantity, especially if shopping for antiques or hobby related items.

LIBRA—September 23-October 22 Relatives turn to you with their aches and pains, and patience is the keyword. Pets igure in the picture - perhaps you are asked to ind them a home.

12336055-DJ03-17

SAGITTARIUS—November 22-December 22 You can be drawn into the inner circle at work or in a community group. News from faraway is encouraging, but have all the details before drawing to conclusions or making arrangements.

PISCES—February 20-March 20 The week includes a blend of intrigue, glamour and local travel.

Thursday and Friday are outstanding for concluding projects. Earlier in the week emphasizes reconciliations and conferences.

BIRTHDAY THIS WEEK You have a way with words and your wit wins you admirers from all walks of life. Your year ahead inds you mingling with a more intellectual crowd. Being more outspoken and determined could lead to a career advancement.

The New Year promises to be a fulfilling one for the gardener Free Times columnist BEATRICE HAWKINS gets into 2017 in the carnation spirit...

Happy New Year! Now I know we are well into January 2017 but as this is the first column for the year I thought it an appropriate way to begin and I hope it will be good to us all with good seasons and good health.

Also “Happy Birthday” to all born in January. Your birth flower is the beautiful carnation with the meaning of love, fascination and distinction but almost every colour has its own unique meaning in the language of flowers. White carnations, pure love and good luck; light red, admiration; deep red, deep love and affection; purple, capriciousness; yellow, disappointment and dejection; striped carnation, regret and refusal, and lastly pink, believed to be the original colour and by some to have appeared as a result of Mary’s tears at Jesus crucifixion, has the meaning of a mother’s undying love.

Gentlemen, it is also the flower to give on a first wedding anniversary.. something to remember!!

I love carnations and although I have never grown them, they were a favourite of my mother and I used to buy them for her whenever I had been away ... in those days I had no idea of their significance.

They are a native of Eurasia and have been grown commercially in Australia since 1954 and although there are over 300 varieties there are

potted up and planted out in spring into a good garden soil. They are also grown successfully from seed and plants purchased in punnets.

As a child I remember carnations being a favourite flower to grow in new gardens near new cement paths, so I assume they like a bit of lime in the soil. At that time there were plenty of new homes in our area in the post war building boom so there were many new gardens that always included the beautiful “peace” rose and carnations.

They like an occasional feed of quality low nitrogen fertiliser, good drainage and not too much water as this will cause the leaves to yellow.

With care some varieties will flower happily from spring right through until autumn.

During our spring garden competition in October 2016, I saw an amazing border of pink dianthus stretching for many metres around a garden. All these plants had all been divided over a period of three years from one plant. It just goes to show

only 50-60 commercially grown.

One of the spectacular new varieties that can be seen in florists is “green trick dianthus barbatus” with golf ball sized flowers of brilliant green and was novelty flower of the year at the World Flower Show in Holland in 2008.

Carnations fall into three main categories; annuals, border and perpetual flowering. They are often referred to by their botanical name “dianthus” a combination of two Greek words giving them the meaning of “flowers of God’.

Some of them are nicely clove scented and they come as a large single flower per stem or sprays of large flowers per stem and dwarf sprays with several small flowers per stem and grow from ground cover all the way up to about 50cm.

They are a perfect cut flower as they are one of the longest lasting when cut, up to three weeks in a vase.

They are easily grown from cuttings taken in late summer or autumn from non-flowering stems,

that gardening does not have to be an expensive pastime. Congratulations to the gardener for her green fingers and perseverance!

Some trivia for fun: *The earliest gardens were purely practical and used for growing food and medicinal herbs. Decorative gardens began to appear about 1500 B.C. We have all heard of the famed “Hanging Gardens of Babylon”. *In Rome in A.D. 30, under the orders from Emperor Tiberius, the first known green houses were built as he wanted to be able to eat a cucumber each day! The first green house in North America is purported to have been built by Andrew Fanueil in Boston in 1737. *According to Sir Francis Bacon “gardens are the purest form of human pleasures”!

I am inclined to agree. A sign in mine where I sit to enjoy my early morning cuppa says: “time spent in my garden starts the day of right”.

Local Sport Casey’s tips

�� Connecting people with the sport they love.

Rugby league musical chairs The

spin With Casey O’Connor email: wickets-stpe@bigpond.com

After a great Christmas and New Year break, everyone including the Spin team is back for another big year of sport following our preferred teams locally, nationally and internationally.

Already it is shaping as a great year. Locally our cricketers are working towards the back end of the season and wins and losses are now beginning to take on real significance. At the same time there is plenty happening on the local rugby league front with changes in playing and coaching personnel in all our local competitions as the swings and roundabouts start to play out. Already we have seen some unexpected defections and some surprise appointments. On the NRL front after a quiet holiday season bad news is again taking the headlines as teams return to full training and prepare for the Auckland Nines. Some interesting developments set to play out in that arena in coming weeks.

If you are a cricket tragic or just an occasional fan, you have been spoiled for choice in the past weeks. The Test series saw Australia redeem themselves with the emergence of some fine new players. The ODI series has been somewhat less convincing and perhaps injuries and changes to the team line-up will again shake up some of the under-performing players. The BBL has been a revelation in popularity and entertainment and goes from strength to strength. Despite the naysayers, it is providing a stepping stone for players to bigger and brighter things. Former Warwick player, Mark Steketee has been prominent in the Brisbane Heats successes. Also great to see the Women’s BBL Series getting some wellearned coverage.

Of course now we are well into the thwack of the Australian Open, and I think all Australians are hoping we can be talking about the talent of our top ranked players not their behaviours for a change. Meanwhile, in the opening games of the tournament there appears to be a group of very talented Aussie youngsters coming through the ranks who will soon be nipping at their heels.

And, of course, there are the outright champions to just sit back and admire.

Holidays what holidays - Bali, Lennox Heads, Adelaide, the Gabba what of these names you mention - now mere distant memories. Isn’t it great to be back in the harness for another year that is sure to throw up plenty of surprises?

- Casey BIG SEASON ON HORIZON FOR WOLVES Registrations for the Warwick District Football Association’s 2017 season are now open - and can be done online for greater convenience.

New club president Karen Welsh said the ‘Wolves’ were looking forward to another successful season in 2017 and encouraged last year’s players to sign up again and for those keen to try football out for the first time to have a go.

“In the 2016 season, the Warwick Wolves had 530 junior and senior playing members and fielded four teams in Toowoomba football - under 18 colts, two men’s teams and a ladies’ team," Karen said.

“The colts and ladies both made the grand finals.

“Football is now Australia’s largest club-based participation sport for adults and children.

“We welcome new junior and senior players and would love to see more new faces this year - we have a great atmosphere at our Saturday club competition at Queens Park and at carnivals around the south-west region.”

Age groups in 2017 are Cubs (under 5), under 6s, under 7s, under 8/9s, under 10/11s, under 12/13s, under 14-17s, Colts (under 18s) and Senior Men and Senior Women (18+).

The club will hold a registration information day on Saturday February 11 at Rose City Shop-

Jordan Lanza was one of the lynchpins of the Stanthorpe Mitchell Shield win on Sunday. pingworld, and a second one on Saturday February 18 at the clubhouse at Queens Park. Keep an eye out for details of times on the Warwick District Football Association Facebook page.

Registrations for 2017 close on 12 March so get in quick. The easiest way to register to play football in 2017 is to complete it online at www. myfootballclub.com.au GOFLERS BUSY OVER BREAK While many of us have been enjoying a holiday break, it’s been a very busy time for Stanthorpe golfers.

There was little time to recover from the excesses of Christmas -The annual Boxing Day Classic once again proved its popularity and a capacity field hit the greens and fairways in the event which is sponsored by Mick Hancock, Tony Herman and Wes Smith. The Classic was won by the Len Leigh, Matt Leigh and W. Ward who finished just half a shot in advance of Hannah and Rob Reeves and Keith Allen.

The final round of the year saw Tom and Tric Fittock combine to win the last medley stableford on the course for 2016.

The Darling Downs District Vets visited on the New Year’s Day holiday and were joined by a large contingent of local players. Mark Baker and Darryl Boekholt flew the local flag and picked up second place in their division.

The first event on the New Year list the January Monthly Medal and putting competition also doubled as the first round for the Foundation Cup. The event was sponsored by the RSL Vets Playing Group. Players also played for a new memorial trophy in recognition of the late David Townsend and his involvement with the club.

In a very competitive field, it was Mark Baker who took out the event, scoring nett 67 and declared the winner after a countback. Baker is one of the improving players in the club and has been making steady progress on his game each week and is reaping the rewards. Hannah Reeves won the ladies event with a nett par round of 73 playing off her handicap of two. The two winners will be the first to have their names inscribed on the newly minted Memorial Trophy. Winners of the Best gross were Matt Waterworth and Hannah Reeves.

Last weekend, Wes Smith won the single stroke, the second round of the Foundation Cup, with a nett 66. His score on the front nine of 41 was bettered on the back nine coming in at one under par 35.

Greg Fraser, the early club house leader with nett 68 was relegated to second spot.

Helen Jones (nett 74) finished one shot ahead of runner up, Nikki Waterworth, to take out the Ladies event.

This Saturday, a single stroke event sponsored by club member Alex Vale has been scheduled, and it is also the final round of the Foundation Cup. It is the best two of three rounds in the Foundation Cup, and with no clear leader emerging after rounds one and two the event is wide open. There is a time sheet on the board at the club house and tee off is from 11.30am.

A reminder that a Two Ball Ambrose will be played on Australia Day. The event is open to members and social players. A handicap in not required. You must register by 8.30am with play getting underway at 9am with a shot gun start.

Young Stanthorpe bowler Harry Williams in action in the Davis Shield game on Sheehan Oval.

No doubt there will be plenty of appropriate Australia Day attire to celebrate the occasion.

FIRING ON ALL CYCLINDERS The sporting Shooters in Inglewood are back firing on all cylinders following their holiday break.

The club held a variety of shoots earlier in the month. On the program were Single Action and Benchrest Rimfire. In between Richard White of Omanama tossed in a military pistol match.

Glen Holmes proved to be on target in the Single Action. He defeated Iain Bowen and Carolina Anderssen.

Peter Russell did best in the Benchrest. Filling the placings were Ross Jackson and Richard White.

In the junior division, Blain Hafemeister out pointed Will Dudgeon.

The impromptu Military Pistol match was won by Tom Donald, defeating Monica White and Iain Bowen.

This weekend there will be plenty of action on the range with Pistol competitions Saturday afternoon and Sunday morning. Both Action and Military pistol events are on the agenda.

Rimfire class, revolver class, military centrefire class.

The club is planning a Colonial Style Shoot on the Australia Day weekend - muzzle loading rifles and revolvers to the fore.

McMILLAN OPENS YEAR WITH WIN The January Monthly Medal and Putting competition kicked off the New Year for the Wallangarra Golf Members. Tasting success was B. McMillan who defeated Steve Hampstead.

Last week the club held a single stableford competition open to members and non-members.

J. Purcell defeated J. Green in the event with Hampstead filling third place.

Only two pin shots went off and they were taken by Peter Butler on the third and Steve Hampstead who had a bit of luck from the trees at the ninth. Hampstead also snared the birdies nest and Purcel also grabbed the chook after it took 15 redraws to get a winner.

A reminder to all members that a General meeting will be held on 28 January at 10am prior to the start of play.

This week the competition is Two Ball Ambrose in an event sponsored by the Wallangarra Store, so grab your partner and enjoy a day on the course. Tee off is from 11am -11.30am (Qld time).

SPORTERS ARE BACK Sporters opened their 2017 season with a big roll up for their first game of the year, and Marg Locke claimed bragging rights as the first winner of the year. Runner-up was Terry Byrnes. Mark Lynam and Dick Hilton finished in the rundowns while Paul Byrnes had the Best Gross.

Another good field turned out last weekend, and Terry Byrnes improved from the opening week to win the day. Paul Byrnes filled the runners-up spot. The run-downs went to Matt Waterworth and Mark Lynam. Waterworth had the Best Gross and grabbed the Pro Pin. Aaron Simmers claimed the Pin Shot at the third. Scooting off with early meat trays were Mark Lynam and Paul Byrnes.

With everyone back into stride and the holidays a mere memory tee off is at the normal time of 7.30 - 8.30am this Sunday.

Toowoomba Davis Shield player Aidan Watterson served up plenty of headaches for the Stanthorpe side in Sunday's game.

The talented batsman finally dismissed for 112. The Toowoomba side went on to win the Rep match.

Luke Brady drives a ball during his innings in the Mitchell Shield game.

AUSTRALIA DAY TRIATHALON Organisers are busy taking nominations for the fifth Australia Day Triathlon in Stanthorpe. The event will be held on Australia Day morning and is an event for everyone.

The event includes a pool swim, bike ride through some of the streets of Stanthorpe and finish with a run through Gleeson Park.

Local Sport TANNY CLASSIC A WINNER Friday night bowls is proving popular at the Tannymorel Club and last saw round one of the Tanny Classic Six week challenge decided.

It is hoped the concept will attract both current and non-bowlers. Under the concept, players receive one point for attending, three points for members of the winning team each week and two points for members of the runner’s-up team.

Points accumulate over the six Friday nights with a total prize pool of $1000 up for grabs. Names must be in by 6pm for a 6.30pm roll up.

Night one proved a hit with plenty of nonbowlers joining the regulars on the green for an entertaining evening.

Mavis Lauradon, Richy Tartan Sandy Wallace and Pete Gynther were narrowly defeated by Leonie Richard Pete Brosnan Brian Walsh and Mick O’Leary (15-14).

Vic Nelson Veronica Banditt and Burt Burmester played a 14-all draw in their game against Jim Lamb, Myrtle Wagner and Aaron McKinney.

Trev Fordyce, Sue Butz and Toucha Tuck had a 13-7 win over Geoff Davis, Geoff Farmer and Johno Johnson.

Jean Lambert, Matty Shepherd Grumpy and Jimbo had a comfortable16-9 win over Wayne Petersen, Maria McDonald, Jean Calam and Tadpole Banditt.

The evening winners were Venus Smith, Marg Thompson and Thommo who posted a 29 -12 win over Jan Walsham, Lorna T and Ant Butz. Taking the runners-up spot were team headed by Jean Lambert.

There was talk of a protest over the age appropriateness of one player while Lorna T was said to be heartbroken at the performance of her team blaming Butzy who she was heard to say was “hopeless” There was equal amounts of skiting and finger pointing going on following the game and something about Thommo’s wonderful body - what was that about you have to wonder. Someone due for a visit to the optometrist perhaps?

If you couldn’t play last Friday you could still join the fun and frivolity this week and have a hand in carving up the $1000 prizemoney. The club invites you to Get your name in, play bowls and stay on for a great meal and OOD. SCHOOLING IN LEAGUE Warwick teenager Brendan Hoffman has secured a partial contract with West Tigers and will complete Years 11 and 12 in that well known Rugby League nursery Keebra Park Sate High School.

Hoffman has been accepted into the Rugby League Excellence Program.

It is great recognition and a life changing opportunity for the talented teen who has had a successful representative career with the South West Mustangs and Warwick Chargers.

The Eastern Suburbs junior will be not only hoping to improve his playing under the guidance of the some top coaching staff at Keebra Park but will also be living every young footballer's dream studying League as a school subject. His studies will hopefully reward him with a Cert III in Rugby League coaching.

Hoffman is not only a promising league players but is also a talented all round sportsman with success in athletics and swimming.

MIXED REP SUCCESS FOR STANTHORPE Rep cricket tossed up a mixed bag for Stanthorpe cricketers last weekend, with both Mitchell and Davis Shield teams playing at home. The Mitchell Sheild side was in action on the CF White turf playing Central Downs and hoping to secure a spot in the final.

The Davis Shield side taking on Toowoomba on Sheehan Oval.

Stanthorpe fielded a strong Mitchell Shield side and took first use of the CF White wicket.

Things did not play out exactly to plan when opener and captain Ben Staley was dismissed for a golden duck however another solid batting performance from Jordan Lanza helped keep the Stanthorpe innings on track. Lanza was the best

of the Stanthorpe batsmen before he was dismissed for 41. Chris Williams (31) and Alaistair Middleton (22) also played a significant role setting Central Downs a decent but gettable target.

When Stanthorpe took to the field the opening bowling partnership of Jordan Lanza and experienced Ross Lupton applied plenty of pressure.

The pair took seven wickets between them never giving their opponents a sniff, and Central Downs were dismissed cheaply for just 57.

It was a top class team performance from Stanthorpe, and with several Mitchell Shield players unavailble it was left to some of the regular Davis Shield players to fill the gap.

The win puts Stanthorpe into the Mitchell Shield final for the third year in a row. Club president and senior Luke Brady and captain Ben Staley were both impressed with the comprehensive win. This side looks to be one of the strongest in recent years, but they will face a tough ask in the final when they face Lockyer in the final with Lockyer winning the right to host the game.

While it was all smiles on the CF White with several Davis Shield players playing up in the Mitchell Shield, things were not as bright on Sheehan Oval.

Batting first the young Toowoomba side looked all class as they amassed a total of 321. Aidan Watterson played an extremely good knock before he was dismissed for 112 late in the innings.

The Stanthorpe side had no answers to the bowling onslaught of the visitors and were dismissed for 65. Make no mistake there are some quality players in the Toowoomba line-up. It was however disappointing to hear that once again officials found it difficult to get players to commit to Rep cricket a situation I like many find hard to fathom.

BIG MARN BACK Warwick and District Junior Rugby League are set to host a Sportsman Dinner on Saturday 25 February with guest speaker the indomitable Big Marn - Darryl Broham. Brohman is no stranger to the district. He and the Continous Call team did a live broadcast from Charlie Andrews Oval Killarney in 2012 during the Round Robin curtain-raiser to the BRL season. Few who were on hand will forget the arrival of him and Blocker Roach in the district chauffered in their very own Wickham’s semi - trailers. He was back in 2015 with the Footy show.

While Brohman has forged a great media career it cannot be forgotten that he was an outstanding football career playing Origin for the Maroons. He was unlucky to be ruled out of selection for an Australian jersey after he was sidelined with a broken jaw in a controversial tackle

by Les Boyd. The Big Marn is sure to have plenty of stories to divulge and this is an event not to be missed for League lovers.

Tickets for the dinner are sure to be in demand as Brohman will be a great drawcard and will go on sale at the Warwick RSL from around 25 January. Tickets are $60 per head and the evening will include an informal dinner with finger food for all tables . There will be something for everyone with raffles and auctions throughout the night.

Proceeds of the evening will benefit the nine junior rugby league clubs across the district.

Diery and P. Dipplesman. The jackpot did not go off.

This coming Saturday there will be mixed social bowls on offer again. Ring the club on 4661 9050 or call in between noon and 12.30pm to nominate to play. Games start at 1pm. There will be prizes on offer and the jackpot will stand at $60 + $1 per

Saturday player. Visitors, men or ladies, will be very welcome.

On Thursday 26 January will be our first Red Rooster mixed triples day for the year. Come and celebrate Australia Day with a game of bowls! Phone the club of 4661 9050 between 11am and noon if you would like a game. Play starts at 12.30pm.

The Warwick District Football Association - the Warwick Wolves - have opened online registrations for the 2017 season. To register online visit www.myfootballclub.com.au and for more season information visit www.warwickwolves.com.au.

While Hoffman is hoping to improve his overall game and secure an NRL contract in the future, his ambition not surprisingly is to follows in the footsteps of other successful footballers from the region and one day don the Maroon Jersey for his state according to his mum Wendy Hoffman.

MENTORING ROLE Jordan Atkins is another former local junior who forged a successful NRL career playing with the Gold Coast Titans and Parramatta Eels and went on to play for the London Broncos. Atkins, whose career was plagued by injury, is now retired from the playing arena. Has combined the experience gained as an elite player with his degree in education in the next phase of his career. He is currently the Well Being and Education manager for the Cronulla Sharks. This mentoring is a role that many would say holds more responsibility than any winger ever had to shoulder.
