Festival finale

The final weekend of Jumpers and Jazz in July had quite a bit of wind, but also a lot of smiles.

Festival-goers danced to jazz in the streets, and attendees enjoyed the suitcase rummage, Celebration of Local Flavours, and more.

A speed of doubt changes at Palmerin Street were “just ridiculous”, especially given the town was hosting its biggest festival of the year – Jumpers and Jazz in July – when the changes occurred.

Mr Cantrill said he thought SDRC would have had to consult the community before replacing the shared zone signs with 40 kilometres per hour speed signs.

An SDRC spokeswoman said the changes were made in response to community concerns.

The council stated the changes were made because the shared zone signage was “not in keeping with the true meaning of a shared zone”.

“Shared zones are traditionally a roadway

that is largely dedicated to no traffic with the exception being delivery vans and emergency vehicles,” the statement read.

The decision to has since faced both praise and criticism online from Southern Downs residents.

Figures indicate Warwick residents are nearly 30 per cent more likely to die of bowel cancer than the average Australian.

The shocking statistic, revealed by the Australian Cancer Atlas, has prompted Southern Downs Regional Council and the Queensland Rotary Bowelscan Committee to begin a week-long bowel cancer awareness campaign.

During #GetYourBumIntoGearWarwick Week – Monday 19 July to Saturday 31 July – Rotary is aiming to raise awareness of bowel cancer and its symptoms, and to encourage people over the age of 50 to use the free government test kits and help prevent early onset bowel cancers.

Spokeswoman for the Queensland Rotary Bowelscan Committee Mal Padgett said many people thought bowel cancer was “just an old person’s disease”, but 10 per cent of people diagnosed with it were under 50 years old.

“That is around 1550 Australians annually or 30 young people a week (who) are told, ‘you have bowel cancer’,” Ms Padgett said.

“On our recent tour through Queensland, the people we met in Warwick were visibly shocked when they heard that high bowel cancer statistic for their town.”

Ms Padgett said many Warwick locals expressed they would like to reduce the statistic, and #GetYourBumIntoGearWarwick provides that opportunity.

Southern Downs Mayor Vic Pennisi said it was important to normalise the disease and speak openly about the affordable and easilyavailable screening tests.

“A small investment in your health today could be saving your life tomorrow,” Cr Pennisi said.

“It is important to get screened and I am

From now until 31 July, find five powerful stories of young Queenslanders who contracted early onset bowel cancer – and information about purchasing testing kits online – at #BowelscanQLD on social media.

Around 15,500 people contract bowel cancer each year. The disease is 98 per cent curable if discovered early, which only 50 per cent of cases are.

If found at stage four, the five-year survival rate of the person with the disease drops to 16 per cent.

Purchase a bowel cancer test kit online from Rotary at www.bowelscanqueensland.org.au/ bowelscan-kit or from your local pharmacy.

Hi there, my name’s Dominique but everyone calls me Mini.

Jess and I will both be writing the Editor’s Desk from now on.

I couldn’t have asked for a better way to celebrate the one month anniversary of my big move to Warwick than by enjoying the final weekend of Jumpers and Jazz.

A highlight of the festival for me was definitely WIRAC’s Jazzercise, and I’m so excited to see it again next year.

I’m also a sucker for a good country scone and a heritage listed building, so the Abbey Boutique Hotel’s morning tea and tour was also a highlight.

This was also Jess’s first Jumpers and Jazz, and it was so fun to be able to experience that for the first time together. I’m insanely jealous of some of Jess’s finds at the suitcase rummage, and we got to take our friends and family together to the Killarney Bonfire Night.

Mostly, it was great to see everyone in town come together, and I’m grateful for the privilege of living in a place with such a wonderful community.

P.S. I’m also pleased to report that since my first introductory article, I’ve acquired an actual bed and quite a selection of secondhand furniture including that highly sought-after couch.

I even have a TV, which at $40 on marketplace might be my prized possession purely for the thriftiness of it.

Creating the correct care

By Jess Baker In a first, Churches of Christ has partnered with disability service provider Focused on Care to transition NDIS clients out of aged care and into shared living accommodation.

The organisations signed a 10-year licencing agreement that would allow Focused on Care to transform 64 rooms at Churches of Christ’s Warwick campus into new homes for its clients.

Focused on Care director Gavin Dunlop said the partnership would give many NDIS clients an opportunity to move away from the traditional residential aged care experience and develop their independent living skills.

“There are currently over 600 Queenslanders with a disability living in settings that are not ideally suited to their needs, including hospitals and aged care services, because accommodation that meets not just their physical, but their social and location needs, is unavailable,” Mr Dunlop said.

“The best outcome of the partnership is we are able to support people under the age of 65 to live with peers in appropriate surrounds and a familiar environment, and for some back in the community they’re originally from.

“From here, they’ll be supported by the Focused on Care team to build independent living skills, which may see them one day moving into their own home in the community.”

Mr Dunlop said some people under the age of 65 – some as young as 30 years old – had been living in residential aged care for more than a decade.

“So being able to live in an environment

Focused on Care Director Gavin Dunlop and Churches of Christ CEO Gary Edwards signed the partnership agreement on Friday 23 July.

Picture: JESS BAKER familiar to them with peers is a great opportunity. We’re very excited about that.”

Churches of Christ director of seniors living Richard de Haast said Focused on Care clients

would have their own section of Warwick’s aged care facility.

“When we built Warwick Aged Care Service, it was designed to serve the Southern

Downs region well into the future,” Mr de Haast said.

“While there is not currently the demand for residential aged care to fill the whole service, we are excited to welcome residents who will gain so much from being there.”

Mr de Haast said the Focused on Care residents would have access to many of the “lifestyle activities” Warwick Aged Care Service residents have access to, including an “innovative gym” that was designed for individuals with mobility and strength limitations.

The partnership agreement came after the 2021 Royal Commission into Aged Care Quality and Safety, which reaffirmed the Australian government’s commitment to ensure no person under the age of 65 lives in residential aged care from 2025.

Mr de Haast said it was great to have made headway in achieving that goal.

“Everybody knows … that younger people will be moving out of aged care by 2025, but nobody’s got a plan. This is a plan,” he said.

“We’re hoping that we’ll be able to break ground but also show people what is possible, because therein lies the excitement …”

Churches of Christ in Queensland CEO Gary Edwards said the agreement was “ground breaking” and a “truly creative and collaborative approach” to meeting unmet needs for NDIS clients. “(We’re) really looking forward to … working together as a team to be a really truly intergenerational, interdisciplinary combined campus,” Mr Edwards said.

The Focused on Care clients are expected to move to Warwick’s Churches of Christ campus at Dragon Street in September this year.

Speed zone of contention “We thank the community for their feedback on this matter and for assisting (the) council to reach the best outcome for the Warwick CBD.” The decision to has since faced both praise and criticism online from Southern Downs residents.

When shared to the Warwick Today Stanthorpe Today Facebook page, some readers questioned whether the red painted crossing zones near the roundabouts on Palmerin Street would continue to be treated as zebra crossings.

Southern Downs Councillor Andrew Gale responded to a comment by Lionel Scicluna, saying they were purely for “visibility”.

“Same as the treatment on the road at the start of school zones and changes in speed zone,” Cr Gale wrote.

“I admit it’s confusing. Hence why I have campaigned alongside the community and worked in council to bring these changes about.”

A council spokeswoman said the painted red crossings were part of Warwick’s original streetscape and they did not have the same legal traffic requirements on cars and pedestrians as zebra crossings.

“Implementing a zebra crossing requires a detailed engineering analysis which (SDRC) will be undertaking,” she said.

“It is not practical to speculate what changes will happen with these crossings until the assessment is finalised.

“Until then, the crossings will not be defined as a zebra crossing but more so an identified point at which pedestrians can be expected to cross.”

The spokeswoman also said traffic lights at the corner of Palmerin and Grafton streets would soon be upgraded to newer LED lights, with works expected to be completed on 1 August and 8 August.

By Jess Baker Warwick’s main street has been stripped of its shared zone status and is now a 40 kilometres per hour zone.

Southern Downs Regional Council announced the change on Wednesday 21 July, the day after the new signage was installed.

Local residents have expressed concerns with the decision and the council’s seemingly little consultation with those who will be impacted.

Warwick resident Terry Cantrill said the changes at Palmerin Street were “just ridiculous”, especially given the town was hosting its biggest festival of the year – Jumpers and Jazz in July – when the changes occurred.

“I wonder who will be the first little child to get run over when a speeding car comes and they’re crossing at a point where there is an opening at the strip in the middle (of the road) that allows people to cross,” Mr Cantrill said.

“I just think it’s ridiculous.”

Mr Cantrill said he thought SDRC would have had to consult the community before replacing the shared zone signs with 40 kilometres per hour speed signs.

An SDRC spokeswoman said the changes were made in response to community concerns.

“Following safety concerns raised by the community, (the) council discussed this issue with the Traffic Advisory Committee and presented proposed changes to the shared zone along Palmerin Street,” the spokeswoman said.

“Following this, the proposed changes were submitted to the Speed Management Committee, a subgroup of (the Traffic Advisory Committee).

“No objections were received by all members of (the Speed Management Committee) representing council, Queensland Police, and two representatives from Transport and Main Roads.”

New 40 kilometres per hour regulatory speed signs were installed in Warwick’s CBD on Tuesday 20 July.

Picture: JESS BAKER In a statement released on Wednesday 21 July, the council stated the changes were made because the shared zone signage was “not in keeping with the true meaning of a shared zone”.

“Shared zones are traditionally a roadway that is largely dedicated to no traffic with the exception being delivery vans and emergency vehicles,” the statement read. “(The) council subsequently reviewed the shared zone signage located in Palmerin Street including the current shared zone signage visible between Fitzroy and Percy streets and a decision was reached that regulatory speed signs indicating a 40 kilometres per hour zone consistent with school zones and other high

pedestrian use areas in the region will be installed.”

The council stated “due process” was followed and approval to implement the changes was obtained from the Speed Management Committee.

An SDRC spokeswoman said the use of 40 kilometres per hour signage across high pedestrian zones was standard in all major cities and would improve safety for all road users.

“The new 40 kilometres per hour traffic rule is similar to that used by our neighbouring city council Toowoomba in its CBD, and by being consistent with other regions, (SDRC) hopes to ensure that the new traffic rule is top of mind for all road users,” she said.

Check-in concerns: ‘We’re trying to do the right thing’ While some Warwick businesses are putting in place measures to make checking in more accessible to everyone, some locals believe the system should change to cater to everyone in the community.

A staff member at Olsens Produce says they’re trying to make the check in process as accessible as possible for everyone.

“We have three phones that we let people use.

“That’s all we use them for.”

NAB on Palmerin Street have the options of writing down visitors’ details if they are unable to sign in online.

A staff member says they write everything down on a sign in sheet then log the details manually themselves.

They keep the information confidential by

writing the information themselves so visitors can’t see previous sign in information.

Initially, they kept the sign in sheet at the door but “quickly realised that wouldn’t work”.

Leanne from Curves says the easiest solution for their business was buying a tablet to put out the front.

“I just went and got a little android tablet and I’ve put that on the table so anyone who forget their phone or doesn’t have one can use it.”

“It’s easy and it‘s combatted the problem.

“It’s cost me $100 or something and it’s easy.”

Leanne says the tablet “is the easiest thing under the sun” and that if businesses want to find other ways to sign people in they can.

“If you’re keen enough to make it work you can do it.

“You have to be prepared to put measures in place.

“We have to work with it to make us all safe.

Other businesses, including Woolworths and AMPOL, are also taking measures to make checking in more accessible to everyone in the community.

An elderly local had a negative experience with the system in Rose City Shopping Centre.

She wanted to manually sign in as they do not own a smart phone, and were told they had to travel to the manager’s office in order to do so.

“Keep in mind these are little old ladies with canes and walking frames.”

Upon entering Big W, she was told to once more check in using the app.

In order to manually sign in, she had to

She says “management isn’t doing the right thing”.

The local believes stores should have someone at the entrance to sign people in manually.

When she asked management why this wasn’t the case, she says they told her they don’t have the manpower.

She thinks the store could have an iPad at the front for those without smart phones to log into the app on, or have a card that everyone carries similar to how the clubs in Brisbane worked.

The local says she wants to be able to sign in, but doesn’t like that she had to spend money to do so.

“You shouldn’t have to buy a phone.

“We’re trying to do the right thing but they’re making it a bit difficult.”

Fines over border pass

By Dominique Tassell

Councillor queries open letter policy

By Jess Baker A Southern Downs councillor has raised concerns with letter etiquette within the council, claiming she found correspondence addressed to her already opened by someone else.

Councillor Cynthia McDonald asked Southern Downs Regional Council Chief Executive Officer Dave Burges about the “new procedure” during an information session at Warwick on Wednesday 21 July.

Mr Burges said any mail sent to the council was considered council business and had to be recorded.

Cr McDonald said she had never had her mail opened by anybody but herself and suggested the council consider updating its policies.

A SDRC spokeswoman said the council has not formal policy that dictates the mail-opening practice.

“The normal practice is that mail not marked as Private and Confidential will be opened to assess whether or not it forms part of (the) council’s general business,” the spokeswoman said.

“If so, then it will be registered and sent

‘Informal’ policy dictates mail addressed to Southern Downs councillors can be opened and filed by SDRC before it reaches them. onto the relevant councillor for their attention.

If not part of (the) council’s general business, then the correspondence will be sent to the relevant councillor for their information.”

Councillor Sheryl Windle said she could not remember a time mail addressed to her at the council had been opened by someone else, but she did not have an issue with the practice.

“I’ve never had a letter come to me to (the) council that couldn’t be shared with the group,” Cr Windle said.

“I don’t think I’ve ever had anything opened though.”

On the contrary, Mayor Vic Pennisi said his mail sent to the council had always been opened by others.

“My understanding is if they’re writing to us as a councillor, that’s something we record,” Cr Pennisi said.

He also reminded councillors that every email they sent and received was in the council’s system and able to be tracked.

“I personally believe the operational side of (the) council should respond to emails,” he said.

Councillor Andrew Gale said he considered the practice consistent with that of other large organisations.

Councillor Ross Bartley asked CEO Dave Burges if letters sent to councillors’ private homes that included information related to council happenings had to be brought into the council to be filed.

“Yes, it is official council business,” Mr Burges responded.

He said even invitations sent to councillors were considered council business and had to be registered with SDRC.

Police have issued a 43-year-old man with four infringements following a heavy vehicle traffic stop at Wallangarra.

The incident occurred at 11:30am on 21 July.

After the driver was asked to produce documentation, he allegedly produced two passes which were invalid.

After police confirmed they were invalid, the driver allegedly became abusive, striking parts of his truck with his fists.

When the intercepting officer advised the driver that he would be turned around to New South Wales, the driver allegedly ignored three requests to produce his driver’s license.

It is alleged that when the driver saw an infringement notice being issued, he performed a u-turn though one was not permitted in the road conditions.

It is further alleged that this almost resulted in the vehicle hitting the intercepting officer and did result in the vehicle leaving black tyre tracks while driving away at speed.

The truck was followed to a service station in New South Wales where he was again spoken to by police however it is alleged he refused to get out of the cab and began throwing items out of the driver’s seat window.

Police managed to negotiate with the driver, and explained his border pass requirements and helped him complete a new pass.

He has been issued with one Fail to Comply – Covid-19 Border Direction, and three traffic infringement notices for failing to produce a driver’s license, failing to wear a seat belt and conducting a u-turn over a single or double white line.

Investigations are still ongoing, though a staff member said they expected that charges will be pressed as the investigation progresses.

APPLE AND GRAPE FESTIVAL WarwickStanthorpeToday.com.au

Laura continues tradition Laura Robertson is set to continue a long-held tradition as she flies the flag for Ballandean in the 2022 Apple and Grape Harvest Young Ambassador competition.

Sponsored by the Ballandean Hall and Sports Committee, Ballandean local Laura is well aware she is helping to continue the decades-long association between the area and the festival.

“I am very proud to be representing Ballandean. It’s a huge role to take on,” Laura said.

“I’m looking forward to getting out and learning about the Stanthorpe region and having fun while doing it.”

Ballandean Hall and Sports Committee president Jason Nash said after a break from festival fundraising in 2020, the committee was excited to be supporting a “born and bred” Ballandean resident in the Young Ambassador competition.

“The Ballandean Hall has had a Young Ambassador or Miss Southern Belle for as long as the festival has been on,” Mr Nash said.

“Ballandean is a very tight community and we wanted to continue with the tradition, especially since it’s harder and harder to get Young Ambassadors interested.”

As well as being the centre of the wine industry, Ballandean is renowned for memorable grand parade entries (including the Fruitisforus dinosaur which still stands opposite the Ballandean Hall) and Mr Nash hinted that there are plenty of ideas for their float in Stanthorpe’s 150th year.

“At this stage there are lots of ideas going around and there are some big ideas in the mix,” he said.

Mr Nash applauded the Apple and Grape

Let the tradition continue. From left, Ballandean Hall committee president Jason Nash, secretary Megan Walker and Ballandean Young Ambassador Laura Robertson.

Harvest Festival Committee’s plans for the 2022 Festival, and especially the moves to involve the Young Ambassadors in the running of the event.

“The Young Ambassadors are the people who will keep the festival going in the future,” he said.

Festival president Russell Wantling said to see the importance of the Young Ambassador/ Festival Queen program had played in the Ballandean community, there was no need to look further than the Ballandean Hall.

“The walls are adorned with photographs of Ambassadors/Queens and their amazing floats from the very beginning of the Apple and Grape as the Apple Blossom Festival,” he said.

“So to have the community of Ballandean again rise to the challenge and keep the tradition alive is something that is very special.”

Mr Wantling said having a Ballandean girl represent her own community this year was terrific.

At 18 years of age, Laura may be one of the youngest ambassadors, but her knowledge of her region is second to none, he said.

“I am so thrilled to hear some of Laura’s ideas and can’t wait to see what she gains from being an Ambassador.”

Laura said she joined the Young Ambassador program to help the community, promote the region, and learn new life skills.

“Being a Young Ambassador will help me with public speaking, and I will meet so many people,” she said.

Laura and her committee are already planning fundraisers including selling a dozen Ballandean Estate wines and a weekend getaway.

Festival volunteer Jordan ready to step into spotlight Young Ambassador entrant Jordan Cassidy is looking forward to experiencing the Apple and Grape 2022 Festival in a different role, after working behind the scenes of the Apple and Grape Harvest Festival for many years.

Jordan has been a festival volunteer for many years, alongside her grandmother Annette Brown, the festival’s volunteer co-ordinator, and grandfather Bill, the grand parade marshal.

“I’ve been running back and forth with the parade, helping Annette with volunteers all over the place, and one year I rode in the car with [Better Homes and Garden chef] Fast Ed,” Jordan said.

“I’ve wanted to be a Young Ambassador since I was 16 and when the chance came along, I thought ‘why not?’

“I want to give back to the community and hold fun events to raise money for the Apple and Grape.”

Jordan is also looking forward to working with her sponsor, the Granite Belt Growers’ Association (GBBA), to highlight the expanding range of fruit and vegetables grown in the region.

GBGA president, Angus Ferrier, said the grower group was happy to support an enthusiastic and energetic Young Ambassador such as Jordan.

“The GBGA is always keen to promote the role that the Granite Belt plays as a major supplier of fruit and vegetables for Australian consumers,” he said.

GBGA was formed in late 2018 and now represents almost 60 growers, industry participants, suppliers, and service providers.

“The Granite Belt is a critical summercrop producing region for Australia, including leafy vegetables and fruits, and an emerging berry producing hub, on top of the biggest industry in the area, which is of course apples,” Mr Ferrier said.

“I think people have under-estimated the size of the industry here and the important role we play in summer production.”

Mr Ferrier said one of the reasons the GBGA was happy to support Jordan in the Young Ambassador competition is because the Apple and Grape Harvest Festival is a primary-industry focussed event.

“A lot of Jordan’s events will include promotion of local produce and we see that as a great part of the work that we do,” he said.

Apple and Grape Harvest Festival president, Russell Wantling, said that celebrating the region’s horticultural industry was a the heart of the festival.

“For that to be recognised by the Granite Belt Growers Group by agreeing to be a sponsor of a young ambassador just ticks every box,” he said.

“Angus and his group are doing such amazing work for our region and we are so pleased to be able to help showcase their work.

“After the worst drought in living history, it is so important to remind our visitors the amazing produce that this region delivers.”

Mr Wantling said Jordan’s passion for the Apple and Grape Harvest Festival was undeniable.

“Volunteering with her grandparents from a young age, she saw how important the festival is to this region and her desire to help in a new arena is commendable.”

Member for Southern Downs, James Lister (left), said he was “just over the moon” to see his “mentor and friend” Lawrence Springborg (right) elected as QLNP Party President.

Springborg to lead party

By Dominique Tassell Councillor The Honourable Lawrence Springborg, AO has been elected as President of the Queensland Liberal National Party.

He was elected at the state conference, held in Brisbane at the Convention Centre on 23 July.

Mr Springborg was the first ever leader of the joint Liberal National Party when the parties merged in 2008, and is currently the Mayor of Goondiwindi.

He returned to the LNP leadership in 2015,

but was ousted in a leadership spill and retired from state politics in 2016.

He told the ABC he was “very, very privileged to have been elected the president of the Liberal National Party of Queensland“.

Member for Southern Downs, James Lister, said he was “just over the moon” to see his “mentor and friend” elected as QLNP Party President.

“It’s a tremendous boost for our party to have Lawrence to unify and energise us.”

“Lawrence was elected by an overwhelming flood of grassroots LNP member support, from

all over Queensland, because he is person of outstanding experience and integrity.

“Lawrence is the real deal. He’s the founding father of the Liberal National Party in Queensland and he’ll do a terrific job.

“Lawrence and our Parliamentary LNP Leader David Crisafulli will be a great team as we work hard to offer the policies and leadership that Queenslanders are looking for.”

Other people in the running for presidency included acting QLD LNP president, Cynthia Hardy, who withdrew from the running before voting commenced.

Also in the running was Tim Wright, who was previously involved with the Queensland Young LNP. The rest of the top positions in the party were elected, with Amanda Cooper elected vice-president of the party and Natalie Marr elected as regional vice-president.

Also on Friday 23 July at the conference, the party voted to abolish the president’s committee, which was comprised of executives and held enormous power.

Reportedly less than 20 members of the party voted not to abolish the committee.

New Hall lease approved

By Dominique Tassell Southern Downs Regional Council has approved a new 10-year lease for Greymare Hall.

The Greymare Hall Committee Incorporated (GHC) have held tenure with council for the past 10 years over the whole of the reserve at Mountain Maid Road, Greymare.

The trustee lease recently expired on 30 April 2021.

Council received correspondence from the GHC requesting to renew the lease for a further ten years, and approved it at the 14 July Council Meeting.

The GHC have improved the grounds by way of a new synthetic pitch and netted practice wicket on a full size oval, using the assistance of successful grant applications.

The improvements to the grounds allow them to host events.

The new lease provides council with revenue by way of an annual lease fee of $223.74 for community and sporting organisations.

Councillor Cynthia McDonald spoke up in the meeting to endorse local community halls.

“These are well-utilised assets within our community,“ she said.

“Greymare being one that is frequented, I would say to you probably by 20-30 people per month except for the winter months when they have their local gatherings.“ “No different to Freestone, Juneby, and the many other halls that we have around the region.

“They are well looked after facilities, council has made some very very positive contributions with grants over the last months and

years sorry, to assist those various halls.

“And with Covid-19, I think it’s very important that communities have a chance to actually congregate in those smaller groups and these facilities provide that.”

Councillor Marco Gliori spoke up in support of Councillor Sheryl Windle for the work she does with local halls, saying when at community halls he often receives positive feedback regarding her work.

“The last four years they keep mentioning (Councillor Sheryl Windle’s) name.”

“I said can I help you with this funding, and they say Councillor Windle has already sent that through.

“Well done in the communities, good on you.”

Councillor Windle said she enjoys that part of her role, and really enjoys spending time with the communities.

Regarding Greymare Hall, she said “with Greymare it’s not just their hall”.

“These grounds that they want the lease over is a very important component to them, they’re very strong in their sport particularly with their cricket out there.”

“And it’s very well supported.

“So it’ll be good to see the lease secured for them again and they’ve got bigger plans to utilise those grounds a lot more in the future so well done to them.”

The motion to renew the lease was moved

by Councillor McDonald and seconded by Councillor Windle.

Cr. Cynthia McDonald spoke out in support of community halls during the council meeting.

Pratten shed fire leaves no one injured

Masons made their way from near and far for the occasion.

Masons unite for Installation meeting

By Stig Hokanson Stanthorpe Freemasons held their Installation meeting Saturday, 24 July.

The Stanthorpe Masonic Centre in Farley Street is the second oldest building in town.

Visitors from Warwick, Texas, Killarney joined with a large contingent of Masons from Brisbane and Gold Coast.

The well attended banquet, following the Installation meeting, was held at the Stanthorpe RSL. Stanthorpe Lodge No 22 Secretary, Justin Liddy arranged a most pleasant visit to Amiens Legacy Centre the following day attended by all visitors from the previous evening’s event.

A chilly day with gusty winds could not

dampen the enthusiasm of the many visitors who enjoyed morning tea followed by a hearty BBQ lunch.

Masonic lodges in Brisbane and Redland Bay area participated in the “Water-forStanthorpe” project some time ago and were pleased to note the town’s recovery from bushfires and crippling drought.

A shed fire in Pratten on 22 July left no one injured but did result in damage.

Emergency services were called to the scene of the shed fire on Old Thanes Creek Road just after 7:30pm.

Queensland Ambulance Services report that “no patients required assessment”, however paramedics remained on standby.

Queensland Fire and Emergency Services reported that two fire and rescue crews and one rural fire crew were called to the scene.

Both Clifton and Warwick fire crews were involved, with Station 21 on Canning Street in Warwick reporting to the scene.

The fire at the three by three metre shed was reportedly out by 8:50pm, with QAS remaining on the scene until just before 10pm, when they left it in the hands of the Rural Fire Crew.

Property network looks set to expand into local region

By Jess Baker CEO of the First National Real Estate network Ray Ellis arrived in Warwick on Monday 26 July with some exciting news.

First National could soon be expanding to Stanthorpe, Killarney and Allora.

With more than 300 offices in Australia, New Zealand, and Vanuatu – including one in Warwick’s Palmerin Street – what began as a regionally-based brand in 1981 has grown to be much more.

Ray said Australians’ passion for property, particularly rural property, had grown exponentially in the past year, with the allure of big cities diluted by Covid-19.

“Covid convinced people of the value of their home,” Ray said.

He said the pandemic had driven Australians away from buying shares and toward more “lifestyle decisions” like buying property.

“Certainty was taken away from us so we retreated to what we know,” he said.

“And what we know is real estate. To buy shares, for average Australians, is too much of a risk.”

Locally, First National already has offices in Toowoomba, Goondiwindi and Brisbane.

But Ray said there was room for more offices in the Southern Downs.

With First National this year celebrating its 40th birthday, Ray said the network was also actively looking to recruit younger people.

Just last month, 26-year-old Warwick local Tori DeMamiel purchased First National

Warwick – taking over from former owner Darryl Evans.

Tori said she had a lot of support around her in taking the leap and she was excited to increase the network’s digital marketing strategy and reach.

“Now that I’m working for myself, I can push for more ideas,” Tori said.

Ray said while foot traffic was important, social media had become crucial to the success and growth of First National, and was second nature to Tori and other young hires.

Spotlight on black spots

By Dominique Tassell Warwick Streets were in the spotlight for Black Spot applications at the 14 July Southern Downs Regional Council meeting.

Horsman Road, Glen Road and Willi Street, Albert Street and Dragon Street, Ann Street and Glen Road, and Mary Street were all submitted for funding through the Australian Government’s Black Spot program.

Other roads included Denham Street in Stanthorpe, Whiskey Gully Road and Yellowbox Road in Stanthorpe, Corundum Street and Marsh Street in Stanthorpe, Freestone Creek Road in Freestone, Paynes Road in Freestone, McMasters Road in Upper Freestone, Hendon Deuchar Road in Deuchar, Maryvale Road in Maryvale, Willow Street and Acacia Street in Killarney, and Old Stanthorpe

Road in Cherry Gully.

Of the projects, only two are ‘reactive’, meaning they are in response to recent crashes. Horsman Road in Warwick and Denham Street in Stanthorpe are the ‘reactive’ projects including in the submission.

The Warwick streets in the submission will require an estimated $416,000 of funding, while Stanthorpe streets will require an estimated $172,000 in funding.

Freestone streets have been submitted for the largest amount of funding, with an estimated cost $988,000 listed in the submission.

The one Deuchar street in the submission, Henson Deuchar Rod, is estimated to cost $20,000 for repairs.

The Maryvale streets listed I. The submission are estimated to cost $246,000 in repairs.

Acacia Street in Killarney is estimated to require $85,000 to repair.

Old Stanthorpe Road in Cherry Gully is estimated to cost $40,000 in funding.

In total, the submission is for $1,967,000 in Black Spot funding for Southern Downs roads.

Proposed funding for Horsman Road will be used to install signs and line markings at the Rose Street, Peters Street, and Glennie Street intersections.

Glen Road and Willi Street will see the Y intersection replaced with a T intersection, and have a new stormwater pipe, line marking, and signage installed.

The funding for Albert Street and Dragon Street will be used to install a median island on the Albert Street leg of the intersection, to in-

stall kerb extensions and ramps, and to install signs and line markings.

Ann Street and Glen Road will have new signs and line markings installed at the intersection.

Mary Street will be changed to a one-way street, and will have new signs and line markings installed.

While this funding would come from the Federal Government, Council will have to pay for anything exceeding the estimated amount, and will have to pay for maintenance works in future for these roads.

The submission for funding was made in consultation with community, as SDRC invited the community earlier this year to submit dangerous roads and intersections for consideration.

Think health during August

By Dominique Tassell The Darling Downs Health mobile women’s health clinic schedule for August is now available.

The nurses are now on the road, travelling to rural locations to provide free and confidential health clinics.

The DDH mobile women’s health nurses, Barbara Milne, Kathy Anning, and Marcia Hunt, offer a range of services including cervical screening tests, breast awareness, sexual health testing, and advice for issues such as continence, menopause, family planning, contraception, and general wellbeing.

Ms Barbara Milne, who travels west from Dalby, to Taroom in the north, and to Texas in the south, said women are often prioritising the health of others resulting in their own health being sidelined.

“It’s really important for the women in our communities to prioritise their health and wellbeing, and make time for regular checkups and tests,” Ms Milne said.

Ms Kathy Anning, who covers the southeast region, said the mobile women’s health clinics are an easy, fuss-free way to ensure health tests are up-to-date.

“Our clinics are a great opportunity for women to seek help for anything that is concerning them,” Ms Anning said.

In 2017 changes were made to the cervical screening program, with women now needing a cervical screening test every five years instead of a pap test every two years.

Ms Marcia Hunt, who covers the north east region, said it’s important to get cervical screening tests when they are due, as they are the best protection against cervical cancer.

“While the test is every five years, we really encourage women to book into our clinics if they have any concerns, or if something doesn’t feel right,” Ms Hunt said.

Carbal Medical Services Registered Nurse

Mobile women’s health nurses Kathy Anning, Barbara Milne, and Marcia Hunt.

Deborah Dixon said that “it’s very important for women to get regular screening done because early detection is very important”.

She said things can be more effectively treated if detected early, but it’s also important for women to know about their own bodies and understand them so they can manage their health.

Border slams shut to NSW

By Dominique Tassell From 1am on 23 July, the Queensland border closed to residents of New South Wales.

Acting Premier Steven Miles confirmed the change at a morning press conference on 22 July.

Masks will be required until at least 29 July in 11 council areas in and around South East Queensland.

Other restrictions have eased, such as the amount of people allowed to gather in homes.

You can now have 100 people gathered in homes, up from the previous 30.

There are now no limits on gatherings held outside.

Restrictions have lifted for hospitals and aged care facilities, and hospitality venues are now permitted to have one patron per 2 square metres.

Wedding restrictions have lifted from 100 people to 200 people, and dancing is now allowed with a one person per 2 square metres.

Funeral allowances have doubled from 100 to 200.

Mr Miles stated that “In order to be able to ease these restrictions, we need to close the border to the rest of New South Wales“.

“That will mirror the arrangements cur-

Check points have been installed at key locations.

Mr Miles said this “will allow people to move around those communities for essential reasons, all the things that you would expect

like to go to school to go to work, for healthcare or to care for others”.

He announced the border zone does not include Coffs Harbour and stated this is due to there being “risks” there.

New South Wales will remain a declared hotspot for four weeks, with a review possible depending on how the outbreak progresses.

Queensland’s Chief Health Officer Jeannette Young also addressed the media, stating the border closure is necessary due to cases in New South Wales being detected in locations outside the areas currently in lock down.

“It is really starting to escalate,“ she said.

“It is important that we increase the restrictions on New South Wales.“ Ms Young stated that mask wearing was a key factor in limiting transmission in Queensland.

“I am positive the reason we have not had community spread recently is because people have been genuinely wearing their masks,“ she said.

Stanthorpe Police said it was all hands on deck at the station after the announcement.

At the time of print Queensland has confirmed 1,770 cases and 7 deaths overall throughout the pandemic.

The state currently has 26 active cases and has conducted over 3 million tests.

Man in hospital after falling 20m near Killarney A 53-year-old man was airlifted to Princess Alexandra Hospital this morning in a serious condition, following a crash on Spring Creek Road near Queen Mary Falls.

Warwick Ambulance Officer in Charge Wayne Kirk said the man was turning a corner on his motorcycle at around 11.15am

when he veered off the road and over an embankment.

Emergency services arrived at the scene after the man was discovered by a passer-by.

Mr Kirk said it was a “difficult excretion”, as QFES and the Warwick QAS lifted the man 20 metres back up the embankment.

The motorcyclist is said to have sustained lower back, hip, pelvic and possible abdominal injuries.

Mr Kirk advised drivers and motorcyclists to be careful on the road near Killarney.

“It’s a very nice drive, especially if you’re on a motorbike, but I think you just need to

be mindful that there’s lots of bends, lots of curves,” Mr Kirk said.

“So while you’re enjoying the ride you just need to go slowly through there because it is quite tricky and there’s also lots of vehicles coming the other way.”

Get in on Leyburn action The best way to experience the excitement and beauty of the Historic Leyburn Sprints is being there.

The round-the-houses Sprints on Queensland’s southern Darling Downs will be staged on 21-22 August, celebrating the 25th running since its founding in 1996 and 72 years since the little bush town hosted the 1949 Australian Grand Prix.

With more than 200 cars of all types and vintages competing one-at-a-time against the clock on a one-kilometre closed-street course around the township the noise and smell encapsulates the excitement.

We have four double weekend passes to give away to lucky readers so they can get close to the action.

Entries close at noon, Friday 13 August.

To enter simply go to: https://warwickstanthorpetoday.com.au/competitions and click on Historic Leyburn Sprints.

219 cars to return to Sprints Defending champion Dean Amos will head a huge field of 219 entries for the 25th Historic Leyburn Sprints next month.

The entry list includes 58 different makes of racing, sports and touring cars, ranging in vintage from 1925 to 2019 and each competition for honours on 21 and 22 August.

The weekend is set to feature non-stop grassroots motorsport, classic car and caravan displays, appearances by the Leyburn Legends drivers, markets and a host of other familyoriented attractions.

Sprints President Tricia Chant said thousands of spectators and competitors were “hungry” to return again to Queensland’s Motor Sport Event of the Year.

“It’s a great weekend of inexpensive family entertainment in a friendly country atmosphere and this year the array of cars is simply amazing,” Tricia said.

Tricia said there would also be plenty of non-racing attractions, including around 120 cars and bikes in Sunday’s Shannons Show ‘n’ Shine and more than 30 vintage vans and matching tow vehicles on display.

Justin McCarthy’s 1925 Austin 7 Sports Special.

Dean Amos, who recently won his third Queensland Hillclimb Championship, will return to the Sprints with his British Gould GR55B V8 single-seater.

“We’ve made some changes to the car’s chassis and braking since the last Sprints in 2019 and some more recent events and we’re starting to get a handle on it,” Dean said.

“The current record from 2019 is 39.97 seconds and I’m hoping to go quicker this time, into the 38s.

“It’s great to be going back to the Sprints. I love the event and missed it when it had to be cancelled because of Covid last year.”

Adult ticket prices remain unchanged at $20 for Saturday or Sunday or $30 for the weekend. Children under the age of 14 enter free and street parking is free.

Pictures: TRAPNELL CREATIONS The competition will begin at 8am on both days.

Sprints to kick off ‘horsepower’ month August is set to be a big month for the Southern Downs, with the Historic Leyburn Sprints the first of many major events in the region.

Running between 20 and 22 August at Morgan Park, the IOR Rosebowl Polocrosse Carnival might be the pick of the region’s horse fans.

On 14 August, those more rodeo-inclined can experience all the thrills and spills of arena horsepower at the Killarney Rodeo.

Later in the month, and also in Killarney, is the annual Waddle, Saddle and Pedal on 28 August.

Southern Downs Mayor Vic Pennisi said the month-long program was a major highlight of

the region’s events calendar.

“Southern Downs Horsepower Month is a new initiative to help promote all of our exciting horsepower-related events happening across the region,” Cr Pennisi said.

“Warwick has always been known as the horsepower capital of Australia so it’s wonderful that we continue to attract significant events to the whole region, as well as our locals also hosting some huge events.

“From Morgan Park Raceway to polocrosse, rodeo, drags and more, the Southern Downs offers plenty of horsepower action and I encourage all of our residents and visitors to share in the atmosphere this August.

A good yarn for the ages

By Jess Baker Former Warwick Art Gallery director Audrey Hoffmann understands how visual art can unite a community.

In fact, it was the premise of her proposal for the first ever Jumpers and Jazz in July festival in 2004. “(At) the time that this streetscape was developed, there was a big argument in the community about deciduous trees versus evergreen trees,” Audrey said.

“The community was divided, the business people were divided, and it caused a bit of unhappiness.

“I thought we could pull this community together by doing something and so I knitted a jumper for a tree in my garden, photographed it, and I presented a case to the council.”

Audrey said she remembered marching in to speak with representatives of the former Warwick Shire Council, throwing a bundle of yarn on to the table, and requesting the council facilitate a public art exhibition on Palmerin Street.

The council agreed.

Audrey could not have known 17 years ago what the festival would one day become, but she said she always knew it had the potential to be big.

“I could see it would grow but I couldn’t be confident because it depended on council support and on community getting involved,” she said.

“It evolved and it’s done really well.”

Audrey retired from the Warwick Art Gallery shortly after the first Jumpers and Jazz in July festival, moving to Brisbane to begin the next chapter of her life.

After 16 years at a Brisbane retirement village, her love for art and community had not dimmed whatsoever.

“I’ve curated exhibitions. I love curatorial work,” Audrey said.

“That’s a spinoff from the gallery management. That love of visual arts … you don’t lose that.”

Audrey said she thought the original intent of Jumpers and Jazz in July had absolutely been achieved, as the festival helped to overcome “polarisation” in the Warwick community.

“It certainly stopped all that angst about deciduous versus evergreens,” she said.

On Sunday 25 July, the final day of this year’s Jumpers and Jazz in July, Audrey said she had noticed a large number of seniors, carers, and “tiny tots” had come together for the festival.

It was exactly this togetherness Audrey had hoped the festival would achieve, all those years ago.

Jumpers and Jazz in July founder and former Warwick Art Gallery director Audrey Hoffmann and her once gallery assistant Terri Welles were “a force to be reckoned with”.

Jumpers and Jazz successfully signs off until next year

By Jess Baker Saturday 24 July marked the beginning of the end of Warwick’s 2021 Jumpers and Jazz in July festival.

Thousands of people descended on Palmerin Street over the weekend for an all-day suitcase rummage, a Celebration of Local Flavours, and Warwick Potters’ craft markets, amongst many other events.

Sunday was slightly windier than Saturday, and saw some stallholders chasing after their goods, but Jumpers and Jazz in July organisers said the festival finale was a success and was sure to have brought a “great boost“ to the Southern Downs.

Check out our pics from the weekend!

Chris and Sharon Whyte were among many who braved the cool elements to tuck into an ice cream.

Historic Abbey opens its doors for a guided tour

By Dominique Tassell The Abbey Boutique Hotel welcomed almost 50 guests on Sunday 25 July for a morning tea of scones and a cuppa followed by a guided tour of the heritagelisted hotel. The tour featured a bar where mother superior’s office used to be, which anyone who went to Catholic school was sure to enjoy, and other details of the hotel’s history including its time as a short-lived university. See photos of the Abbey from the day…

The Abbey was added to the Queensland Heritage Register on 21 October 1992.

The Abbey features stained glass windows imported from Germany.

Brisbane architects, Simkin and Ibler, were responsible for the design.

The Abbey dates back to 1891.

BEAUTY AND THE GEEK NINE, 7pm

SUNDAY

SILVER LININGS PLAYBOOK 10 BOLD, 11.20pm

Pat (Bradley Cooper, left) is down on his luck to say the least. After spending time in a mental health facility, he’s living back with his parents (Jacki Weaver and Robert De Niro) and trying to get his life back on track. When he meets the equally messed up Tiffany (Oscar-winner Jennifer Lawrence), his clear plan to win back his wife gets complicated. To say this film is a mere romantic comedy is to do it a great disservice. It is sweet, yes, but also heartbreaking and with bitingly funny scenes.

TUESDAY

THE CHEAP SEATS TEN, 9pm

Comedians Melanie Bracewell and Tim McDonald, two of the cheekiest and cleverest panellists on Have You Been Paying Attention?, are breaking out on their own in this new comic current affairs offering. Produced by Working Dog, the team behind HYBPA? as well as The Panel, Frontline, Utopia and Thank God You’re Here, The Cheap Seats boasts a very promising pedigree. Taking a look back on the week in news – from major stories, entertainment and sport to viral videos, notso-major but amusing stories and anything to do with cats – Bracewell and McDonald promise to leave you in stitches with their unique view of the world.

FRIDAY

THE WRESTLER ABC TV PLUS, 8.30pm

Requiem for a Dream helmer Darren Aronofsky teams up with Mickey Rourke (above) for this highly acclaimed story of a washed-up wrestling star unable let go of the only thing he was ever any good at. Rourke is near flawless in his Golden Globe-winning turn as Randy “The Ram” Robinson. With his glory days long behind him, The Ram is barely scraping out a living working small shows and performing in dangerous matches for the bloodthirsty extreme-wrestling crowd.

Aronofsky presents an honest portrayal of an industry in which people will go to extreme lengths for a shot at fame and fortune, often with complete disregard for the damage they are doing to their bodies, lives and loved ones. A must-watch for any wrestling fan, past or present.

They say that it’s what’s on the inside that counts, and the surprisingly strong connections between the geeky guys and gorgeous gals on this Lego Mastersmeets-Love Island reality series really have proven that. But let’s be honest, all viewers really want to see is what potential lurks behind the geeks’ Star Wars T-shirts and overgrown beards. As such, Nine have cleverly stretched the series’ makeovers over three Sunday night specials.

Tonight, the pairs take on a public challenge, providing the half-time entertainment at the footy, before host Sophie Monk reintroduces the remaining fellas to reveal their jaw-dropping physical transformations.

Rural Links A taste of local flavours

By Helen Lewis, Ag Columnist As we enjoy one of the wettest winters for quite some time, we can start to think about what we do with this soil moisture.

Even if spring and summer are below average, we are still going to grow grass.

With our holistic planned grazing we are wanting to give the winter standing feed a graze so the growing points are exposed so as the daily temperatures increase and soil temperature increases, the sun can trigger growth.

When soil temperature gets back up to 12 degrees the summer grasses start to grow again.

By opening up the grasses, we will maximise sunlight capture and provide the roots with energy through photosynthesis to grow more feed in summer.

In summer, it is very important to monitor the rate of the growth of your grass. This practice indicates your recovery period for your grasses, so you minimise overgrazing and maximise grass growth in summer.

If you are interested, you can do this by making a netting (small enough netting/mesh so a mouth can’t get in) cage tall enough so livestock can’t reach the plant inside the cage, and square or round to fit over a decent sample of plants the animals would eat (one metre by one metre).

Put the cage over plants that animals would eat and near other plants they will eat, put your animals in that paddock, for your planned number of days.

When you move the animals make a note of the date, monitor the plants outside the cage, and see how many days it takes for the plants outside the cage to be the same volume as the plants inside the cage.

The number of days is your recovery period.

It will determine how fast or slowly you should be moving your animals. For example: the faster the growth 20 to 30 days recovery move quickly, 50-60 days recovery move slower.

Holistic Planned Grazing is all about increasing soil carbon.

An increase of one per cent organic matter (about 0.5 per cent increase in carbon) can result in the soil being able to hold over 150,000 extra litres of water per hectare. That is a huge amount!

If you want to make the most of your soil moisture by tweaking your Grazing Management, join us on 7 and 8 August at Picots Farm Woolshed for a Holistic Planned Grazing workshop.

Celebrating local flavours The Jumpers and Jazz Celebration of Local Flavours was a great success, giving local farmers who direct market their produce a chance to promote what they do and creating a real vibe that the Southern Downs is a food and wine/ beer region worth visiting and supporting.

The Southern Downs Food Map was very popular with people seeking it out. Developed in 2019 with a Landcare community project grant, and now under the auspice of Southern Downs Regional Council, as one of the farmers on the Food Map I want to promote it far and wide at www.southerndownsfoodmap.com.au.

We need to keep the momentum and update the food map with any new local farmers selling direct to customers, any food business using over 50 per cent in Southern Downs-grown fruit and food, and any cafe that offers meals that are direct from farmers in the region.

Those who want to be included should email: edu@sdrc.qld.gov.au.

If you are a local looking for local food, many of the farmers have an ordering system and subscription models you can join.

We want you to be able access our amazing

local food direct from the farmer, with most of the food chemical free. Watch this space in the coming weeks as we develop a community platform for local food orders.

Keep an eye on Facebook Picots Farm for an update next week.

Also on the weekend, The Breen Family at Echo Valley Farm Goomburra hosted an Agroecology workshop.

Agroecology is all about improving the landscape, the lives of farmers and the longterm prosperity by developing community with farmers.

This gathering of farmers who are wanting to collaborate and help each other improve their land, and grow their businesses, by sharing ideas, tips and tricks. Such positive uplifting discussions.

One topic was all about scale. The old mantra is you have to get big or get out.

Or what about a network of lots of smaller farms working together and collaborating with freight, equipment, buying group, sharing business information to make it easier for newcomers, helping every farm business become the best they can be without the overheads.

This collaboration model is developing in

our region already and it will be exciting to see where it takes our regenerative farming community. We can collaborate, rather than compete.

Surprise for Glen

By Rotary Club Of The Granite Belt Recently, past president Don Gaske of the Rotary Club of The Granite Belt presented Paul Harris Fellow (PHF) recognition to Dudley Abraham and Rodney Abraham of Granite Belt Fruit Freighters in recognition of their assistance during the club’s Water for the West project.

However, at the time there was a third member of the family missing. Glen Abraham who was on holidays with his family.

Last Friday, Rotarians met at the Granite Belt Fruit Freighters office.

In what was almost a clandestine operation, the group was there to recognise the third member of the Abraham family.

Glen Abraham was stunned to find the visit was more than just a few drinks and nibbles to extend the club’s gratitude to the family and their staff as Mr Gaske announced Glen Abraham was being recognised as a Paul Harris Fellow.

After the official presentation which was far less low key than usually reserved for such an occasion, Glen said as the announcement was made he was at a loss to understand why he had been singled out.

With close members of the family sworn to secrecy, he had no idea what had already transpired.

The newest PHF recipient in the Abraham family said he was humbled and honoured to receive such recognition.

He also admitted that it sat much easier with him when he realised, he completed the Abraham PHF trifecta.

He did say: “I don’t know that I deserve this.

I really didn’t do too much.” According to Rotary sources that was quite some understatement.

Members of the Rotary Club of The Granite Belt believe the Abraham trio are worthy recipients of the PHF honour, not only for their commitment and assistance to the Water for the West project but also for their unsung involvement and support of many other events and charities in the district.

In presenting these PHF awards the Rotary Club will donate US$1000 (per PHF) to the Rotary Foundation.

These funds will assist the foundation with their many humanitarian endeavours worldwide.

Meanwhile, Glen Abraham is out to get to

the bottom of exactly which members of his family blindsided him last Friday while his mother Joyce was delighted that she could finally share the news with family and friends.

The Grainshed Machinery Group would like to thank the Australian government and Southern Downs Regional Council for the assistance of a grant to lay a concrete slab for a storage shed at our site on Shelley Road at Freestone, through the Community Drought program for not-for-profit groups.

The Grainshed is a group of people with a keen interest in our past farming methods.

There is a gathering on the first Saturday of each month to see old machinery in action and fellowship with our members.

We regret we were unable to operate on 17 July in conjunction with the Freestone community hall event as our area was under water.

We look forward to seeing you at our next event, subject to weather conditions.

Thank you everyone.

Toasty evening spent at Killarney bonfire Thousands of people arrived at Killarney on the evening of Saturday 18 July, hoping to ward off the cold with fires and food.

The Killarney Bonfire Night was a huge – albeit muddy – success, as kids marvelled at the flaming gallon drums and adults enjoyed

delicious mulled wine.

Check out these pics shared to social media from the fabulous evening.

The event featured 44 flaming gallon drums in the shape of giant dragons, ships, and fiery devils. Picture: @SHAMSULKAZI ON INSTAGRAM

the Council and the governments to finance their enterprise.

I find it strange that only certain businesses get these monies from our representatives. The local retailers don’t get it. Nor do the tradies, the small farmers or the accommodation businesses.

So, the Council budget, ratepayers money, is going to increase the discount to urban developers and give a few million dollars and Stanthorpe water to a private dam company.

I find it strange that we have cuts to staffing in the Council and bleating about having to have a tight budget yet our Councillors say we have enough money to give to private enterprise businesses.

I find it strange ….

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR WarwickStanthorpeToday.com.au

Thoughts on dam It is great to see local issues on a public venue like the papers we now enjoy in our district good old fashioned social media.

Amanda Harrold has bought up some interesting points from the view of the chamber of commerce. She is frustrated by negativity, because people don’t agree with her plans.

I am sorry it must be difficult living in a democracy, her idea of the trickle down effect from irrigators has been well tested.

Most folk are aware it means nothing a red herring no less. It’s very true that agriculture is a major factor in our community, but that does not mean big irrigation is.

As an opponent of the costly white elephant Emu Swamp Dam, I often think of the money squandered on this project for a few

had been spent on other projects for our district.

Stanthorpe like Katoomba is perfectly placed weather-wise national park-wise, (and) tourism-wise both domestic and international.

Really who is Growcom a community based and oriented organisation?

Emu Swamp Dam is a dud it’s time to look out for our community instead of of small group of irrigators.

Fix Stanthorpe water by making sure it is not wasted. Many folk are sick of the genetic fallacies, red herrings, the ad hominem fallacies abusive, tu quoque, circumstantial and guilt by association arguments presented by the Emu swamp dam brigade.

Time to look out for the broader community. Not just the myopic view of a few irrigators.

Public monies for private enterprise I find it strange that members of our community think they have the right for their businesses to be financed by ratepayers and taxpayers.

I find it strange because it is argued that private enterprise is more efficient than government enterprise, that small government is best and taxes should be lowered.

Yet, these businesses are not efficient enough. If they were efficient, they would not need ratepayers and taxpayers money from

Art part of region’s fabric

By Kaz Thorpe, Arts Writer Textiles hold a common place in our lives – from the clothes we wear to the functional items we use in our homes.

Humanity has had an enduring relationship with textiles from the discovery of flax fibres more than 34,000 years ago. Textile art generally refers to textile-based objects that have no intended use.

Textiles have often been diminished as woman’s craft, but contemporary artists are merging tradition and innovation to elevate the status of textile art in Australia and overseas.

Did you know our own town of Warwick and the Darling Downs is a creative hub for textile art? Currently, at the Warwick Art Gallery, the Darling Downs Textile Artists Group is exhibiting their “Musicale”.

The nostalgic exhibition has been inspired by the Pianola and its paper rolls which bought music into the homes of families in the last centuries.

Members of the group have used the playfulness of music, in conjunction with paper music rolls, fibres and mixed media approaches to present their interpretations of the theme.

Works in this enjoyable display range from wall hangings, wearable art to sculptures. The exhibition skilfully articulates the versatility of fibre as an art medium.

The exhibition begn last week and runs until 21 August.

Another group of artists that push textiles to the limit and beyond is the Warwick Textile Creatives, who are part of the Warwick Artists Group in Willi St, Warwick.

Lead by the hugely talented, hyper-enthusiastic and Warwick’s whirlpool of energy, Dorothy Devine, the group supports each other well beyond the fabric and “brings the collective brain together”.

Dorothy believes “we are all born creative

Plantagenet by Dorothy Devine. but often that creativity is knocked out of us by criticism”.

“We regain creativity when there is no fear of censure,” she said.

Members said they love the visual, tactile, colourful, textural, movement, dimensionality and patterned nature of fabrics as an art form.

Members are regular recyclers, upcyclers and re-purposers.

When I interviewed the group, they stated that “they each use their own techniques, but are not governed by those techniques”. They are certainly not textile purists!

The Warwick Textile Creatives is holding an exhibition at the Stanthorpe Gallery from 5 August to 19 September 2021.

The exhibition, “Falling with Wings”, which is based on a Sufi poem, articulates that one only unfolds one’s true potential when all concerns about self-image are released.

The latest contribution from Rose City Writers, this week from ROSEMARY EASTON...

‘Murtrie’ Maureen stood at the window watching the rain. She had woken during the night to flashes of lightning and rumbling thunder.

The sound of rain on the roof was very welcome after years of crippling drought. Jack came through the back door, dripping wet, with a smile from ear to ear.

“One hundred millimetres and it’s still teeming. The beginning of the end!” He grabbed Maureen and danced around the kitchen.

Two sleepy faces appeared at the door, the twins, Marcus and Matilda. “What’s that noise? We are scared,” they sobbed.

“It’s okay, children. It’s rain, glorious rain.

Come and watch it falling. Look at the puddles. No playing outside today.” Two solemn little faces peered through the windowpane.

They were fascinated.

The rain continued for two more days, raising the total fall to four hundred millimetres until finally clearing to the east. Dams were full. Tanks were overflowing. Roads were temporarily closed. The tired, haggard faces of the community showed joy again after the years of worry. Their spirits were raised.

“We can plant crops again,” said Jack, “and begin looking for new stock if we can afford them.”

“We can earn income and pay off some of our debts. The future looks bright,” added Maureen.

DATE OCTOBER 2020 Crops had been planted and yields were high. It had been a difficult time as covid 19 had disrupted the normal routine. Lock downs limited the workforce in the farming, mechanical repairs, delivery of seed and fertiliser sectors. Schools were closed and home schooling became the norm. Social interaction was limited.

After the initial joy of the drought breaking, hard work and long hours had taken its toll on the community. Jack, and others like him, were worn out keeping things in order.

28 TODAY Thursday, 29 July, 2021

While cropping was successful, it was difficult to procure stock.

Maureen was stressed, helping where possible on the farm, maintaining a vegetable garden, introducing Marcus and Matilda to home schooling and keeping in touch with her parents who lived interstate and not coping with their lock downs.

She started a local on-line support service and listened to harrowing tales from desperate families She directed callers to support services. She wrote letters to MPs, government health departments, charities, philanthropists, newspaper and media outlets. She told of the plight of the community. Being a woman with great organisational skills, she outlined ways to help Murtrie: Travelling and regular health services Referral to specialists.

Educational support for children who had missed basic learning.

Repairing and supplying sporting facilities.

Renovating vacant houses to become social hubs.

Set up training facilities for Counsellors, administrators and maintenance workers.

She wrote with enthusiasm but had little faith in any action. Jack and the community applauded her efforts.

DATE JANUARY 2021 Letters arrived. Most were negative responses. Some listed Maureen’s projects below other schemes which were deemed a priority. One letter was positive. It was from a firm called Easilife Ltd, principal Matthew Fitzgibbons. To partially quote from it: Maureen, we understand your plight. I would like to visit Murtrie with a team of specialists in engineering, health services and town planners to find a way forward for you and your community.

Please arrange a meeting as soon as possible so we can start the ball rolling.......

Maureen organised a meeting at the local

· · · · · ·

hall for the following Monday, inviting community leaders and like-minded locals.

A plane landed at a local airstrip and the guests ferried to the local hall. The groups mingled and introduced themselves. A reporter and photographer moved around interviewing and photographing people.

Some of the group requested transport to drive around the area to familiarise themselves with the situation. Jack volunteered.

Matthew Fitzgibbons introduced himself and outlined the goals of his organisation, TO SOLVE PROBLEMS WITH QUICK AND PRACTICAL ACTION He addressed the health service problems that were being experienced, outlining a plan to convert a large vacant building into a medical facility housing one permanent GP, two nurses, teleconferencing facilities with rooms available for visiting specialists, physiotherapists and dentists who would be rostered on a six -week rotational plan. He had priced these services and his company would finance the project. A major concern was the need for psychologists and counsellors and he could promise access to these to begin immediately in temporary accommodation, remaining in the area for one month, and then making arrangements for permanent visits.

For educational support, he had talked with the Retired Teachers Association and former teachers would become grey nomads and supply tutoring and assisting at the local schools. There would be no costs involved and enough retirees to have a continuous rotation for six months.

Landscapers and sport management teams would be made available to renovate all sporting facilities. The NRL and AFL had agreed to sponsor this.

Four vacant houses would be renovated as meeting hubs, one for women, one for men, one for children and teenagers and another for community events. Easilife Ltd would fi-

nance this too.

A Training Centre and gymnasium would be built and manned for training personnel as Life- Line Counsellors, administrators, maintenance workers, landscapers, computer operators and meeting area for farmers and agronomists to share the latest farming methods. This was one area that the government would fund.

The media would be blitzed to encourage active unemployed, recently retired, gap year students, former farmers to donate a month or two of work assistance to help farmers.

There was wild applause from the audience. The town council had an emergency meeting and agreed to all the propositions, signing pre-prepared forms required for immediate action. Easilife had certainly done its homework.

Matthew asked Maureen if she could accommodate him for the night when the team flew back to Sydney.

Maureen was overcome with the whole situation as she and Jack drove Matthew to their home. “How can we thank you?” they said.

“It’s a long story. I had been searching Ancestry.com when your letter arrived. I had been adopted by the Fitzgibbon family when I was six months old. My mother died recently, and I went through her papers. My birth mother’ name was Peters.”

“I am Maureen Peters, now Evans. My mother is alive and well and I have a brother and two sisters. Is this just a coincidence?”

“Yes and no! But that information is exactly what I found on Ancestry.com. I couldn’t believe that a letter was sent to me by my half-sister. I have had a successful and lucky life and I am so happy that I can reach out and render valuable assistance.”

Maureen fainted into her brother’s arms, came to, reached for the mobile and called their mother.

Queensland Premier Annastacia Palaszczuk visited town last week to announce a significant investment in “drought-proofing” Warwick and Stanthorpe.

Early works on the proposed Toowoomba to Warwick pipeline will commence shortly and the state government will begin building the project’s business case, which should identify the most appropriate means of transporting water to Stanthorpe.

The partner of a Brisbane man reported missing in Girraween National Park on the last weekend in March has expressed her gratitude for the “efforts and compassion” of local Granite Belt emergency services personnel and volunteers who conducted search efforts for Manfred Luck, with the search having been scaled back after a week of “massive effort”, local police said.

Mr Luck, 71, has been described as a “fit and experienced” hiker - who loved Girraween above all other National Parts.

COMMUNITY FOCUS WarwickStanthorpeToday.com.au

Local writer and journalist – and songwriter and musician – BOB WILSON shares his latest ‘Observations’ column.

Lasagne and lockdown So what does the New South Wales Covid lockdown mean for restaurants and cafes, some of which may have been planning for National Lasagne Day (29 July)?

Greater Sydney and surrounds and the whole of Victoria have been declared Covid red zones, with active cases multiplying rapidly.

A broad swathe of restrictions aimed at bringing the outbreak under control mean that in the NSW Red Zone areas’ thousands of pubs, clubs, restaurants and cafes are very much in a holding pattern. There’s no end in sight to the lockdown ending. So they will have their hands full paying the bills, never mind planning for a special foodie day.

If you had never heard of it, National Lasagne Day is a US celebration, a nod to the 5.5 million Italian migrants who found their way to the Big Apple and other American cities since the 1800s. Currently there are 2.2 million Italians living in the US, the majority in New York. So it is not difficult to find Italian restaurants or cafes, most of which are likely to have lasagne on the menu. And who hasn’t eaten the rich creamy dish with its layers of pasta sheets, interwoven with tomatoes, cheese, vegetables and meat sauce?

When we go out to eat, I am known for being unadventurous. If it’s not fish and chips it will be lasagne – ask anyone.

Which reminds me of the time in a Dublin pub when I decided I’d ordered haddock and chips one too many times.

“What does the lasagne come with?” I asked the waitress.

“Oh, the lasagne?” she said with a Dubliner’s lilt. “That’ll be coming with rice and chips and salad…but we haven’t got any.”

The website www.nationalday.com observes that lasagne first showed up in Naples, Italy during the Middle Ages. The dish made its way to America with the first Italian immigrants in the 19th century. An article in La Gazetta Italiano clears up a few myths about Italian food in the US. For example, only one third of food sold in the US as ‘Italian’ is imported from Italy.The remainder have Italian names, but are not the real deal.

My Dad (the baker) scoffed at Italian food such as pizzas. When the grandkids were planning to phone up and order pizzas he would claim (with a guttural Scots Och), that he could make a family sized pizza with meat toppings for about $2.

“What! $24 for a slice of bread in a cardboard box? Awa ye go.”

I might be recklessly paraphrasing the longdeparted baker, but he is right to observe that Italian food is, in the main, highly profitable.

Of course, it depends on the reliability of suppliers, staff and other small business variables, not the least of which is rent. For even small shops in Sydney suburban high streets,

Bob Wilson loves his lasagne. rent is undoubtedly the single biggest expense.

So you have to feel sorry for bars, restaurants and cafes adversely affected by the current lockdowns in Greater Sydney and Victoria.

The one advantage is that Italian food is favoured by those who order takeaway foods. In 2019-2020, one pizza company alone (Dominos), sold 105.6m pizzas, through 833 stores in Australia and New Zealand.

As numerous articles in magazines such as Fortune have observed, the home delivered food business boomed during Covid in 2020. https://fortune.com/2020/08/12/coronavirus-food-trends-takeout-delivery-pizza-dominos-covid/ I was musing about this and that while waiting for our meals to arrive at the Yangan Hotel, a local watering hole outside Warwick.

We shared the dining room with two other groups at separate tables. No one wore masks and (gasp) I broke tradition and ordered rissoles.

Queensland has been handling the Covid cases it does have - about a tenth of what NSW is dealing with - in a responsible manner. So not surprisingly, we no longer have to wear masks when going out, although I notice some people still do. We are (still) in the lucky coun-

try part of the country with the Jumpers and Jazz festival pumping from the 15th to the 25th of July and all eateries open for sit-down catering.

In NSW, the lockdown rules are detailed and unambiguous for the food and drink hospitality industry; you can open, but only to sell takeaways or deliveries. But as Restaurant and Catering Association chief executive Wes Lambert told news.com.au, not all businesses can switch to takeaway and delivery service. He said small businesses were the most vulnerable to the lockdown, with some 93 per cent of food service industry businesses turning over less than $38,500 a week.

The Australian Retailers Association urged consumers to keep their essential shopping to a minimum. The ARA said in a press release that while retail stores were open, shoppers should take up digital options like click and collect.

“Every dollar you spend keeps someone in a job. It doesn’t matter if that purchase is made in a store or over the internet,” chief executive Paul Zhara said.

Back in Queensland, which, on 17 July, closed the border to all of Victoria and to the New South Wales hotspots, it’s business more

or less as usual. The South-East coastal economies got an unexpected boost with the National Rugby League (NRL) deciding to move nine Sydney-based and three other regional teams to Queensland.

This decision will deliver a big pay day to the hand-picked accommodation outlets which become the teams’ bases for four weeks and maybe longer.

Hopefully players, staff and families will weigh in and support small business while they are here. Can you imagine South East Queensland’s Italian eateries and their couriers coping with 500-plus takeaway delivery orders for lasagne on July 29?

Importantly, National Lasagne Day is the day before we set off (with masks) to Suncorp Stadium for the Broncos’ clash with the Queensland Cowboys. So they’ll all have 24 hours to sleep off that big dose of carbohydrates (assuming it comes with rice, chips and salad).

Or they (the Broncos) could be like jockeys trying to make a lightweight ride and pick away at a green salad.

Yep, that’ll happen.

The latest from Warwick Bridge Club...

By Neil Bonnell, Warwick Bridge Club The leaders at the halfway point in the Handicap Pairs Championship are Leanne Munson and Havah Nielsen, followed by Noela Collins and Mavis Simpson.

One of Leanne and Havah’s best scores came on Board 4 on Monday last week when they settled on a contract of 1NT by Leanne (East).

The best way to play a no-trump contract is to count the number of certain tricks and if it comes to less than you need, identify the suit where extra tricks can be made.

Concentrate on that suit first, even if you must lose a trick or two in order to win two or three with the other cards left in that suit.

Leanne received the lead of the six of hearts, a good start by Jill Smith (South). It would be normal for declarer to wait until the third round of hearts to play the Ace. Declarer will have counted four clubs and the Ace of hearts as five certain tricks, so at 30 TODAY Thursday, 29 July, 2021

Noela Collins, Nea McGinness and Barbara Reid enjoy a chat during smoko. least two more tricks are needed.

Diamonds is the only suit where extra tricks can be made, so a low diamond is played from dummy (West).

If North plays the Ace, the defence is over,

so the ten will appear and be covered by East’s King or Queen.

Declarer now knows that North and South have only three diamonds between them and that the best outcome would be for the Ace

now to be on its own. The eight of diamonds is played to the Ace and North cannot immediately reach South’s winning heart. North might cash the Ace of spades, but has to return the lead to East on the next trick.

East’s winning diamond is played and dummy is entered via the carefully preserved Jack of clubs. Two winning diamonds can be played, followed by three top clubs.

No other East/West could do better than plus 120 for 1NT making eight tricks.

Results: Monday, 19/07/21 (5-table Handicap Pairs):N/S N. Collins M. Simpson (102,9) 1; J. Rose P. Campbell (102.1) 2; T. Hinde J. Mobbs (100.1) 3. E/W L. Munson H. Nielsen (110.7) 1; B. Reid D. Moran (99.29) 2; W. Milne J. Sipple (90.5) 3.

Trucking on after 50 years

By Lucian & Deanna Giles-Duffy Despite the many challenges of farming, one reliable constant in orchardist Dennis Angelino’s life has been his well-loved ACCO truck.

This July marks 50 years since Dennis acquired his red butterbox truck, and with over one and a half million miles on the clock, the intrepid Thulimbah farmer’s dedication to its service and operation prove that there are many more to go.

Bought from Bellingham’s of Warwick in late 1970 for a substantial sum of $8000, the International C1800 Series ACCO truck was a welcome addition to the orchard operations at the time.

Warwick local Bev Matheson created its van compartment which was more suited to transporting fruit long distances, and it’s served its purpose well.

When Dennis set out on 19th July 1971, it was just the beginning of 21 years distributing apples and pears to the far reaches of north Queensland.

Twice each month, he would travel the Queensland coast north to Townsville, stopping at major centres along the way.

From 1991 to 2006, Dennis broadened his delivery area to include the western Queensland towns of Roma, Dysart, Moranbah, and Emerald.

Meanwhile continuing his ‘milk run’ along the coast as far as Bowen, with regular customers to supply at Bundaberg, Rockhampton, Mackay, and numerous smaller towns in between.

Dennis recalls travelling north on the horror Rockhampton to Marlborough stretch one Saturday evening when half the oil leaked out of the gearbox back to the diff.

He realised something was amiss when he couldn’t easily change gears, but unaware of the extent of the issue at the time, he persevered true to usual form, and took 7 hours to travel 170 miles.

Taking extra care to change gears, and keep the revs consistent, he navigated the Sarina Range and made it to Mackay the following morning.

Here his friend Ross Torrisi directed him to the local garage where he’s sons Mario and Ross could help. Much to their surprise, the gearbox fell out completely!

With the end of the main gearbox broken off, Dennis describes their mechanical skills as ‘number one’ as they set to work installing a new gear box shaft which allowed him to get back on the road again.

It’s really a wonder that in these early days traversing the busy coastal run, that this butterbox truck never met with calamity.

There was however one time Dennis encountered a drug-driver while crossing an old bridge over Gravely Creek.

As it swerved into his path, he took the left wheels of the trusty ACCO onto the edge of the structure and avoided a catastrophic outcome for all involved.

When the local police officer attended the incident scene, he commended Dennis’ driving ability and flawless knowledge of his truck.

To keep pace with the harvest and fruit delivery, maintaining his truck in good working order has required the assistance of several skilled mechanics over the years.

One of these being the Toowoomba mechanic workshop ‘Guilfoyle Inglis’, where foreman Norm Harrold (who passed away in late 2005) became an admirer of the ACCO. On one return trip from Mt Osso, the truck travelled 800 miles with the engine running on five cylinders and arrived at the workshop to Norm’s exclamation, “You always want to do the impossible Dennis!”

It was in 1980, almost ten years after its maiden voyage north that, Guilfoyle Inglis mechanic Charlie Searchfield was tasked with replacing the original Perkins engine.

Completing the work to a commendable standard, the only difference with the new engine was the injector pump Norm had expertly modified at the throttle linkage.

This was the last of the main repairs by Norm and his team before he retired to care for his family.

When Charlie started his own Toowoomba business, Road Transport Specialists in 1989, he continued to service the ACCO. It was under his direction in 1996 that the kingpins were replaced, wheel bearings re-

The next year the truck’s right hand rear wheel cylinders were replaced, but it wasn’t until 2004 that a leak in the fuel tank needed attention.

Charlie’s final service in 2006 saw him servicing the injectors, along with the replacement of a sliding sleeve and two speed plate on the differential.

Remarkably the bearings were like new and were not replaced. Charlie is still impressed that in 38 years no work has ever been done on the transmission.

Inevitably each visit to Charlie and his team included a box of apples to share around and some entertaining stories from Dennis’s travels in the ACCO. Charlie believes that to have so little repairs over such a long period is a testament to Dennis’ careful driving ability as ‘a true gentleman owner driver’.

In recent years, Dennis has adapted his fruit run to reduce his time on the road, and he focusses his time supplying locals in the Darling Downs, and as far as Nanango and Tansy.

The familiar rumble of the ACCO truck as it delivers his produce is a welcome sound for all his happy customers and it is clear to see the satisfaction he has at the wheel of this steady and reliable machine.

Cattarin’s Mechanical Repairs in nearby Stanthorpe, have been servicing the truck since 2009, beginning with new hone cylinders and the fitting of replacement pistons and rings.

At the next service, new con-rod bearings, injector nozzles and lift pump were fitted.

By 2016, a full engine rebuild was in order, along with several major works. These included the repair of the injector pump, dipper switch wiring, and replacement of the twospeed differential motor.

Surprisingly, the (No.3) Eaton differential was like brand new.

In addition, the fuel pipes were manufactured and fitted, and the team undertook routine repairs on the alternator, starter and glow plug wiring, brake vacuum hose, and most importantly, a new horn was fitted!

While the International ACCO remains essential to his livelihood, Dennis is keen to pay

tribute to the good work of each of the mechanics who have had a role in its longevity and thank them for their efforts.

It’s outstanding that despite clocking up 3.8 million kilometres over the last 50 years, this Butterbox International ACCO has never had a major breakdown.

Mechanics who have worked on the vehicle are consistently impressed by its excellent condition.

Notably, the brake linings at the rear are 44 years old; and the 32-year-old clutch plate only had to be replaced due to cracks around the springs in the centre.

Similarly, the gear box, (with original end bearings) has been described as ‘unbelievably tidy, with mechanics claiming that they can’t feel any friction in the tail shaft.

The attention and care Dennis has shown to his truck is second to none, and this is confirmed in the comments of admiration that come from the mechanics who have worked on the truck over the years.

Current mechanic John Cattarin is confident when he says, “the truck will do another 30 years of work without any trouble”.

Focus On WARWICK COWBOYS All grades win at home

By Candyce Grew and Jess Baker Windy, freezing conditions at Father Ranger Oval on Sunday saw all three Warwick Cowboys sides triumph against the Pittsworth Danes.

On a soggy field, Warwick Cowboys A Grade coach Matt Grew said his team had another “tough win”, beating Pittsworth 3026.

“We got out to an early lead, but through fundamental errors, we let Pittsworth back into the game,” Grew said.

“We then had to try hard to get the momentum back to come away with the win.”

Grew said he was “really pleased” with the first 25 minutes of the game.

“We had a high completion rate and led 18 nil before we slipped back into old habits,” he said.

“Kieran Fender had his best game of the season, showing some real aggression with his defence and Dylan Galloway was again good out wide in the centres, bagging himself a double.

“Co-captain Sam Broomball had another captain’s knock, earning himself the Ranbuild Warwick / Dominos Best Forward for the day and young winger Jake Speed was awarded Best Back for his efforts.

“Kieran Fender also received the Players’ Player award.”

The Warwick Cowboys Reggies side also had a spectacular win against the Danes, 46-14.

With only a month until finals and seven teams in contention for the top five, coach Aaron McVeigh said a win against the Danes was vital for their aspirations in the back end of the season.

“Early on it was evident that the conditions were going to play a major part in the game, with Pittsworth kicking two 40/20s shortly after we’d crossed for our first try,” McVeigh said.

“They were able to make the most of these opportunities as well as a try from a clever chip and chase to really gain the ascendancy midway through the first half.

“A couple of unforced errors from the Danes late in the first half allowed us the opportunity to head into half time with a lead which we were able to make the most of.

McVeigh said they went into the second half “well aware” that if they could control the ball and play simple football, they would use the conditions to lean the game into their favour.

“This is exactly what we were able to accomplish, running in five unanswered tries to finish 46-14 winners,” he said.

Captain Morgan Taylor earned the Ranbuild Warwick / Dominos Best Forward honours, and the Best Back and Players’ Player award went to Jordyn Hogden.

The Warwick Cowboys Under 18s also defeated the Danes 28-14.

Under 18s manager Joe McIvor said it was a good defensive game, with Jack McMeniman and Jacob Duff the standout players.

“It was a tight game. We were sixth on

the ladder and they were one behind us, so it was tight the whole game really,“ McIvor said.

McIvor said he was confident the Under 18s would win their final three games and make it to the finals.

The Warwick Cowboys will play the Newtown Lions this Sunday at Father Ranger Oval, with Reserve Grade playing at 1pm, A Grade from 2.30pm, and Women from 4pm.

Garden Time

GARDENING

Beatrice Hawkins

Obedient in name only When I have been reading about plants I came across one called “Obedient Plant”! Of course this really piqued my interest.

Anything that is going to be “obedient” must be a blessing in the garden!

Botanically it is Physostegia Virginiana and comes in a colour range of white through pink to pale mauve and flowers from summer through autumn.

It is native to North America and found from eastern Canada to northern Mexico.

It is a member of the mint family so I wondered about the “obedient” title as I have never yet met a type of mint that could be called obedient!

Generally they run rampant and need to be planted in a pot to contain them and stop them taking over an area.

So more reading and research was done and I found that the “obedient” title comes from the ability that the individual flowers have of being turned to face wherever you want them and then remaining that way.

This makes them ideal for floristry work and great fun for children to play with.

It likes full sun, fertile soil and consistent moisture. I was right in the fact that, like most mints, it can become a problem with its ability to spread by both underground runners and seeds.

In fact it is suggested that to control it, it would be wise to plant it in less than ideal soil or in a container with the bottom cut out

The obedient plant. and then put into the ground. Constant dead heading is also recommended to prevent spreading by seed.

Apparently it will grow even in clay soils.

So maybe if you have an area that gets full sun, is constantly moist and you need something to provide colour in summer and autumn, and don’t mind if it takes over, the obedient plant might be an option. However, despite its name, don’t expect it to do as it is told!

The recent welcome rain has things looking green and pleasant in the area and my lawn is going well. The only down side to this is the proliferation of weeds coming up.

Milk thistle is my main problem along with marshmallow. The latter I have managed to pull up as with some of the thistles but it looks

like I might have to resort to chemical eradication with some camber or at least a “feed and weed” type of spray.

I have always had marshmallow where ever I have lived, but until recently had not realised it was toxic to animals.

It always came up in sheep yards, but as we didn’t often hold sheep in the yards for any length of time, it never caused a problem.

My wonderful and very practically knowledgeable, father in law always maintained that if you pulled and hung a plant in stone fruit trees it would deter “curly leaf”.

I have certainly done this over the years and found that it worked.

Many years ago I purchased a lovely and unusual hippeastrum. It had green, red and white striped flowers and I couldn’t resist!

At the time I was living temporarily in an apartment and had nowhere to grow it. So I gave it to a family member to plant and it flourished to an extent that it became a problem for this neatness freak and he pulled them all out and took them to the tip! Horrors!

However, at the very successful Horticultural Society’s Garden Extravaganza held in St Mary’s Hall last week, I saw it and once again couldn’t resist.

It will go into my garden this time, among the common red ones that flourish there and I look forward to seeing its contrasting blooms.

Other plants I have in the garden that are doing very well are day lilies and I will defi-

nitely get some more. They seem to be so hardy and forgiving of soil types and neglect and come in such an array of spectacularly coloured and frilled blooms, that I will find it hard to pick a favourite to buy and plant.

My space is limited so unfortunately I can’t indulge myself and buy a number.

The plants of the big frilly red poppies that flourish each year from seeds that my granddaughter sent me years ago, have not disappointed and once again have self seeded and are growing nicely.

I have sprinkled some of the pink ones a reader gave me and also some for “black” and white flowering varieties that I bought, so I hope to have a colourful display in early spring.

One of the delights of these poppies is that they are very attractive to bees.

It’s not unusual to see many bees in each flower in the morning that they open. I have often counted up to 12 at a time in a single bloom.

I see many catchy quotes on the internet but the one that caught my eye this week and resonated in this crazy pandemic situation is a definite truism.

We are all aware of the proven mental health benefits of growing things and being able to look at green so: “Gardening is cheaper than therapy and you get Tomatoes”!

SPORT WarwickStanthorpeToday.com.au

The Spin Olympics bring some joy I’m finding it hard to decided whether the Tokyo Olympics are as really as good as I think or whether I am just so jaded after watching rugby league that I am lapping up whatever else is on offer and at the world class level.

Every four years or five in this case Sport’s fans like me find themselves drawn to obscure sports that we would not otherwise consider.

Afterall who normally watches Badminton, (how good was the Aussie who just slipped off to the side of the court and grabbed a replacement racquet after breaking a string mid set), Hand Ball, Table Tennis, Canoeing and Rhythmic Gymnastics to name just a few. I must admit though I have a soft spot for the Gymnastics after working at the Gymnastics stadium during the 2018 Comm Games. And who knew that Skateboarding was such a great spectator sport though it’s a sport you announce your retirement from in your early 20’s. Not a sport that lends itself to longevity.

Perhaps the problem is we do not have enough exposure to sports other than those in the mainstream.

Of course, the swimming has been sensational.

The Hockey, Football and Surfing also exciting and even the Tennis, despite Ash Barty’s early exit in the singles.

What makes these Olympics so special, I believe, is the many back stories to the athletes.

The journey and sacrifices so many have made.

Things like the swimmer whose Dad hooked up the hose to the house hot water to add warm water to their pool so he could train during lockdown without becoming an ice cube. Pleased I am not getting that electricity bill.

Then of course, the story behind Arianne Titmus and her family making the move from Tasmania to Queensland so she could chase her dream and then watch the dreams materialise.

Now that’s special.

Those are the things that give you goose bumps and make the Olympics special. So often so much is sacrificed by not just the athlete but their entire family unit.

I hope some of our self-entitled rugby league players are paying attention. We can but only hope.

Now, what’s on next. I could get used to this.

LADIES BRAVE THE CHILL On very chilly day, the Warwick ladies golfers were on the course on Wednesday 21 July playing a single stableford sponsored by one of their great supporters Warwick Sandstone.

Ten players braved the conditions and handling the conditions and course, best was Maria Carey. She showed the remainder of the field a clean set of heels returning an excellent score of 42 points.

Lynette McKillop was the runner up with the next best score - 32 points. Not satisfied with streeting the field, Maria also won the pro pin on the seventh with a great shot - only 610mm to the hole. Featuring in the run down were Helen Olsen, Diane Johnston and Yvonne Pinington (31), Judy Stiff (29), Dian Macdonald (28), Jill Barnes (27), Melanie McLennan (25) and Vicki Bennett (24).

Saturday the ladies celebrated Jumpers and Jazz with a single Stableford – the trophy for the day in keeping with Jumpers and Jazz was a knitted beanie donated by the Warwick Spinners and Weavers group.

Unfortunately, the cold and windy conditions contributed to a small field of only seven.

It was Jill Barnes who played best returning a winning score of 31 points and I am sure she was able to put that beanie to good use fairly 36 TODAY Thursday, 29 July, 2021

There were three gobbles recorded - Molly Scotney on the first and both Helen Olsen and Jill Barnes at the 16th. The rundown went the way of Mary Young (30), Janine Stewart (29), Danielle Seibel (28), Helen Olsen (27) and Molly Scotney 22.

This week the semi-finals and final of the Single Handicap Matchplay comepitition will be decided. Good luck to the ladies involved Molly Scotney, Yvonne Pinington, Trish Roberts and Mary Young. Hopefully the golfing gods smile on you and the conditions are a little more favourable.

TURKEY TRIPLES AT ICY SUMMIT It was monthly Turkey Triples at the Summit Bowls club on Tuesday, 21 July and bowlers could have been forgiven for thinking they had been transported to a Summit somewhere in the Alps such were the wind and freezing conditions.

Players were pretty keen to escape to the comfort of the clubhouse for the presentations. Of the 14 teams who braved the testing conditions it was Elana Scott, Dale Callaghan and Peter Collis who handled things best winning with two wins plus 28.

The Summit team of Adrian Jackson, Jamie Zamprogno and Tony Schubert were runners up also with two wins but plus 26.

The opening round of the Summit Men’s Club Triples were played on Saturday morning.

In Game One Cliff Jones, Peter Ayerst and Eliseo Zamprogno had a comfortable win against Phil Davis, Rod Newlands and Frank Taylor. Final score 21-11.

In Game Two, Adrian Jackson, Carl Sutherland and Jamie Zamprogno defeated Keith Mungall, Alex Mattiazzi and Michael Sweeney 20 -13.

Ray Spiller, Paul Zamprogno and Tony Schubert drew the bye.

Eddie Zanatta, Brian Wilmot and Tyler Sweeney also had a bye as their opponents withdrew from the competition due to unforeseen circumstances.

The Semi-Finals continued on Saturday afternoon.

In the first Semi Eddie Zanatta, Brian Wilmot and Tyler Sweeney played Cliff Jones, Peter Ayerst and Eliseo Zamprogno.

Sweeney’s team got off to a great start and controlled the game and at the ninth end held a 13 -4 lead.

Eliseo’s team staged a fightback and by the 19th end the scores were locked at 19-all. They were able to take a two shot lead into the final

In the final end Sweeny’s team played some great bowls when it mattered most scoring a three to win the first Semi-Final - 22 shots to 21 but not before Eliseo almost snatched the game with his last bowl. His shot narrowly missing.

The second Semi between Ray Spiller, Paul Zamprogno and Tony Schubert playing Adrian Jackson, Carl Sutherland and Jamie Zamprogno was also a great game. Jamie’s team took the upper hand in the early stages and after six ends held a 7-3 lead.

After 10 ends they had settled into the game and retained an 11-7 lead.

Their experienced opponents led by Tony Schubert hit their straps in the back end of the game playing consistent bowls and at the completion of 15 ends had taken a 16-13 lead.

Schubert’s team held their form for the remainder of the game taking out the second semi-final, 20-17.

The final between the teams of Eddie Zanatta, Brian Wilmot and Tyler Sweeney and Ray Spiller, Paul Zamprogno and Tony Schubert was set down to be decided on Sunday. The excessive winds on Sunday forced the postponement of the game and it will now be played on Saturday with the game commencing at 1pm.

On Saturday, the Summit Club will be represented by Frank Taylor (Singles), Keith Mungall, Rod Newlands, Adrian Jackson, and Jamie Zamprogno (Fours) in the QLD Group Three Zone Playoffs at Inglewood Bowls Club.

MAX’S DAY IN EVERYWAY

Warwick Cowboys centre Joe Fuimaono caused the Pittsworth Danes plenty of headaches in their clash on Sunday at Fr Ranger Oval Picture: SUPPLIED their ongoing support of the club.

HOWLING WINDS FOR WARWICK SPORTERS Warwick Sporters were faced with howling westerly winds last Wednesday for the Hawker Road Function centre trophy round. Only 38 brave or slightly crazy souls faced the starter including two visitors probably blown in from Pittsworth GC. Trevor was especially recognisable in his Ronald McDonald trousers.

On a day where in addition to the wind the course was still showing the effects of the recent rain, Terry Bennett who has been out of the winners list for a while strangely found the conditions to his liking. Bennett returned 38 points for the round and them rolled Doug Rickert (38) in a countback to claim victory.

The shortened ball rundown saw balls to Bryan Slattery 37, and Danny Lyons, Clive Pulley, Daffy Hynes and visitor Trevor all returned 36 points.

NTP’s went the way of Trevor from Pittsworth on the fifth, his mate Bill also from Pittsworth collected on the seventh and 16th.

At the Pro pin on the 11th balls were collected by the Loin King (3) and Eddy Raets (2) and at the 13th by Scott McLennan (3) and Chainsaw Al (2).

On Wednesday Sporters play for the Warwick Hotel Trophy (look for results in the next edition). A reminder that the following Wednesday is the annual QPS Legacy Charity Day. This popular and long running charity day is mainly organised by Sporters member Sgt Shane Reid. There is a time sheet in the Pro Shop for this event so be sure to get your name in asap.

And finally, the origin of the Sporters golfing thought for the day probably has a bit to do with last week’s conditions. “It’s hard to look cool in winter and stay warm when you’re a golfer in Warwick.”

THREE BOWL PAIRS FILL GREEN Thursday the Warwick East Bowls Club green was full as bowlers played in the club’s monthly three-bowl pairs day. At the end of play the winners were Geoff Creighton and Grumpy Carson. The runners-up were Peter Collis and Margaret Wright.

The finals of the ladies’ self-selected pairs competition were held on Saturday. Shirley Alcock and Jackie Richie proved too good for Margaret Wright and Lynn Collie. The final score 35-10.

The finalists in the men’s self-selected triples competition were also on the green. Peter Dipplesman, Johnno Johnson and Sid Morris defeated Rob Alcock, Paul Beaman and Steve Ford 24-18.

For those not involved in the comepitition finals there was mixed social bowls. The equal

Stanthorpe golfers played an individual stableford event last Saturday and the day belonged to Max Hunter. Not only did Max sponsor the event, but he also returned the best score of the day. A round of 40 points. As Max was the sponsor, he excused himself from the prize winners list allowing Rino Piovesan who returned the next best score of 37 points to collect the winner’s trophy. The ever consistent Scott Constable (36 points) was the runner up.

Members thank max for supplying the prizes and for opting out of the winner’s list. Well done.

Lisa Stuart claimed another win when she finished on point ahead of Annelle Batterham.

The points scored will apparently remain confidential as the ladies find the wet course very difficult at present with next to no run at all.

Men’s pin shots went the way of Aaron Simmers at three, Len Leigh at 12 and Darryl Boekholt collected at 17.

The ladies’ pins went to Marie Cook at three, Annelle Batterham at 12 and Kay Webb at 17. Pro-pins were won by Barry Jones at 5/14 and Keith Jones at 9/18. The birdies nest once again went unclaimed.

On Saturday golfers play the end of month medley 4BBB stableford sponsored by Stephen Short and the team at 4 Water Supplies.

Play gets underway with with a shot gun start at noon. Please register at least 20 mins before to give the starter time to allocate tees. There is a time sheet on the board at the club and there are already quite a few names on the time sheet.

COWBOYS ON TRACK The Warwick Cowboys remain on track for a spot in the TRL finals following a gutsy win over the Pittsworth Danes on Sunday at Fr Ranger Oval. The cowboys wingers Tyrelle Ross and Jake Speed have been in great touch and got the team off to a flyer.

Ross put first points on the board after just seven minutes and Speed scored the next two tries as the Cowboys opened up an 18-nil lead after 20 minutes.

The Danes hit back and with some possession going their way posted their first points when Mitch Carpenter scored.

A try to Dane fullback Chris Woodbridge went unconverted at half time the score was 18-8.failed The cowboys drew first blood in the second half with a Dylan Galloway try.

After kicking three from three in the first half the Cowboys failed to convert. Shortly after brent Hearne crossed for Pittsworth and with the conversion by O’Sullivan it was 22-14 with 20 minutes remaining and while it was cool on the sidelines this game was heating up.

As the game shifted from end to end back to back tries from the Danes put hem within two points of the home side.

The Cowboys dug deep and tries to Harry Sullivan and another to Dylan Galloway gave the cowboys a 30-20 lead. The Danes threw everything at the Cowboys and with four minutes on the clock were rewarded when brent Hearne scored and is try was converted by O’Sullivan to take the score to 30-26. In a nail biting end to the end to the game the Cowboys held on to their lead to grab the important two points.

Sam Broomhall earned the club award for best forward after a top class performance and Jake Speed was named Best back. Keiran Fender also had a great game for the cowboys and Harry Sullivan was able to take momentum out of the opposition at key moments in the game.

Fender earned three Webcke Price Medal

points; Mitchell Carpenter (Pittsworth) two points and Dylan Galloway one point.

Warwick 30 (Dylan Galloway 2, Jake Speed 2, Tyrelle Ross, Harry Sullivan tries Matt Marshall 3 goals) Pittsworth 26 ( Brent Hearne 2, Mitchell Carpenter, Jackson Griffiths, Chris Woodbridge tries his O’Sullivan 3 goals).

With four rounds remaining until the finals the Cowboys are back at Fr Ranger Oval on Sunday afternoon hosting Newtown. They will be looking to atone for their shock loss to the Lions in round 10.

The Cowboys completed a clean sweep with wins in the minor grades.

The Under 18’s defeated Pittsworth 28 – 14 win and the Reserve Grade had a comfortable 46-14 win.

The Warwick ladies side won on forfeit.

QUIET WEEK It has been a relatively quiet week on the Warwick Bowls Club green due to the weather.

The final of the Self Selected Triples however did go ahead. Craig Thurgate (sub for Percy Cutmore), Richard Tartan and Tim Gallagher played Phil Wagner, Russell Bean and John Ruhle in a very close game. By he 12th end both teams had at some point held the lead.

Gallagher team managed a lead of one or two points and by the 20th end the score was 1613 in their favour but the game still very much in he balance. Gallagher’s team held five shots on the 21st end and won the final 21-13. Congratulations both teams.

Members are reminded that nominations for the Self Selected Fours are now open.

Brothers simply had no answers, as the Warriors ran in a procession of tries – 18 in all at Glenholme Park.

Wattles showed no mercy in what was a relentless, and polished display from the get-go.

Wattles raced out to a 30-nil lead before brother managed to get on the board when Sam Betros scored.

There would be no miracle comebacks from Brothers as Wattles extended their lead to 44-4 at half time.

It was more of the same after the break with Wattles players queuing up to score. Matt Christensen bagged five tries while matt Duggan’s individual tally was tally 32 points. He scored a try and kicked 14 conversions.

This was a polished performance from Wattles.

SPORTERS DEAL WITH UNWELCOME WESTERLIES Sunday Sporters have certainly had a tough time of it recently facing rain, frost fog and last weekend very cold and gusty westerly winds greeted players. Everyone was well rugged up for Sunday morning competition, with the back nine in play for last week.

There were a few of the regular faces missing as players teed off. Perhaps they were home feeding the wood fires.

Chris Binge shrugged off the conditions to return the not the best nett score of 25 for the day the day, but also the best gross of 43 for the round to claim the daily double. Word has it that Ray Thorn has turned to Mr Google to get his game in shape and the plan worked as he collected runner up prize with a nett 26 score.

Gregg Steele, who was visiting found the course to his liking and featured taking the run down prize with nett 29. Two pin shots were on offer, both going to good shots in Probably a good thing that there was no encouragement award as there would have had to be a four way cut to find the wind with many finding the conditions quite challenging (at least that was their excuse.)

This week Sporters return to the front nine and will be keenly checking the forecast hoping the weather gurus have it right and there are only light winds after last week.

Everyone is invited to join the Sporters crew for nine holes and tee off is at the normal time of 7.30 to 8am. Of course, that is always dependant on the weather conditions in winter.

GREMLINS LADIES BRING HOME SILVERWARE The Stanthorpe Gremlins club collected their first piece of silverware in the inaugural season of the Border Rivers Rugby League comepitition when the Ladies upset warm favourites Tenterfield in the grand final of the Ladies League tag competition last Saturday.

There was a good deal of uncertainty surrounding the grand final games to be played in Tenterfield as borders closed and COVID restrictions came back into play. Confirmation the games would be allowed to go ahead was only received on Thursday however spectators were confined to coaching staff and managers.

The Stanthorpe ladies trained well in the lead up to the game after defeating Inglewood 28-8 to book their place in the GF. The team were unfazed by the uncertainty surrounding the game and played well to overcome the previously unbeaten Tenterfield girls 16-14 in a tight game.

The lead changing several times during the game, as both teams crossed for three tries, but the difference came down to successful conversions with Stanthorpe converting two tries and the Tigers just one in an exciting grand final.

TIGERS PREMIERS IN THRILLING GF The Tenterfield Tigers led by captain Brendan Minns secured the first Premiership in the newly minted Border Rivers League competition last Saturday.

A home grand final at Rugby League Park in Tenterfield would normally draw a crowd from both but due to COVID restrictions numbers were reduced and the Roosters supporters were confined to trainers managers and officials. The Tigers went into the game with a 3-1 winning record over the Roosters during the fixtures.

The Roosters were confident following their solid 26-10 win over the Cowboys C Grade side in the Preliminary final.

This was always going to be a tough final.

Both sides had several chances in the first half but in the greasy conditions the attacking raids were brought undone by handling errors as play see sawed from end to end without points being scored. With less than two minutes on the clock before the half time break, the Tigers made a break down field and a pass from the Tenterfield second rower to Brendan Minns found its mark. Minns tipped the ball on to Cassidy Thrift who planted the ball un-

As the half time hooter sounded Tyler Sargeant converted the try to take a 6-nil lead into the break.

Only nine minutes into the second half play was delayed when Inglewood player Charlie Deroux was injured in an awkward tackle.

There was a great deal of concern for the injured player and the clock stopped as an ambulance was called.

It was a blow to the Roosters who had already lost Tim Brennan with a ligament injury suffered in the first half.

When play resumed the second half looked much like the fist with scoring opportunities stymied by poor ball control and turn overs.

With 20 to go in the game the Tigers Brendan Blaker scored in the corner and a beautiful kick from Sargeant gave the Tigers a 12-0 lead.

The Tigers defended their lead until the roosters cracked the defence with five minutes remaining in the game. Mitch Stafford converted and with only five minutes on the clock it was a grandstand finish. The score 12-6 and the Roosters had momentum. The Tigers lost possession close to their line and the roosters Kane Elder scored with under two minutes remaining. Roosters kicker Mitch Stafford had the chance to equalise, but his kick hit the upright and as the hooter sounded the Tigers celebrated a 12-10 win in a nail biter. Tyler Sargeant was named player of the final.
