A look back While many would no double love to forget the year we’ve just had, 2021 still held times to delight and surprise, as well as testing our resilience in ways that require more than just a nasal swab.

We ran the full range of weather from drought to flood, we celebrated great achievements and community events - and we took stock of what we really valued.

We take a look back in this edition at the high points and the challenges. Write to us and let us know what you remembered most.

Blow to region’s shows Rising rates of Omicron infection have caused upcoming agriculture shows to take drastic action, with at least one cancelled while others postpone.

The Stanthorpe Show, the first 2022 show in the state, announced

late last week that they would be postponing.

Other shows in the region have made announcements regarding their events too.

Covid case surge new cases on Tuesday 11 January.

With over 100,000 cases in the state, Health Minister Yvette D’Ath stated on Tuesday 11 January that they expected a large number of cases to be going unreported.

“We do expect that is an under-reporting,“ she said.

“There are many other people in the com-

munity who are showing symptoms who have not either registered their tests or have come forward for PCR tests at this stage.“ Over the weekend, the region’s numbers increased steadily, however, case numbers are expected to be higher across the state due to Rapid Antigen Test shortages, PCR testing wait times, and four testing centres being down

earlier in the week.

A Darling Downs Health (DDH) spokesperson stated that the symptoms for Covid-19 regardless of variant remain the same - fever, sore throat, runny nose, fatigue, vomiting or nausea, loss of smell and/or taste, cough, shortness of breath, headache and diarrhoea.

Change the date 2022 should be the last year Australia Day is celebrated on the 26th January. While politicians make a big deal of saying “sorry” to the aboriginal people, they really cry crocodile tears, because we continue to commemorate the 26th January, 1788 when the dispossession and slaughter of our first nation residents began.

No doubt our parliamentary leaders are

reluctant to take an honourable stand on this issue, fearing a loss of support at the ballot box of the many racist rednecks in the community.

Quite often we hear aboriginals should “get over it and move on” so too should we forget about celebrating on the 26th January but rather regard it as a day of shame.

I’m incredibly torn on how to approach reporting on Covid-19 at the moment.

On one hand, I don’t want to incite panic, I don’t want to be a fear-mongering journalist. But on the other hand, I’m frankly very scared. Members of my family have Covid now. One of them had asthma as a kid and picked up another member of my family from the airport, while wearing a mask, when they were already infected. The latter doesn’t even count as a close contact because they didn’t spend four hours together, so hasn’t been tested. Yes, they’re all vaccinated. Yes, their symptoms are mild and the likelihood of them getting extremely sick is low. But it’s still scary.

We are inevitably going to hit 300 cases (let’s be honest, it will be well over) tomorrow on Wednesday 12 January. And we know the numbers are much higher because of a RAT shortage and a frankly ridiculous reluctance from the government to do PCR testing on everyone who wants it.

I understand that the demand in a city like Brisbane is incredibly high and they’re trying to ensure they test the people who need it most. But frankly, I think they could do better in rural areas like the Southern Downs. We had an influx of people getting tested months ago and we dealt with it. To tell people that they don’t need to be tested is irresponsible in my opinion.

I also take issue with the lax approach I see some people in the region having towards Covid-19. I hear a lot of people saying that we’re all going to get it and that we should just “let it rip”. Frankly, I find that a very selfish view. There are so many people who would get very sick from Covid. Immunosuppressed people are everywhere. It feels incredibly ableist to assume everyone will be okay if they get Covid. We still don’t know what to expect in regards to long Covid. “Letting it rip” could mean we have a portion of our population dealing with chronic illness as a result.

I still remember the absolute terror I felt when we had hotspots a few months ago and I had to be tested. I was horrified that I might have given it to someone else. Yes, I might be OK if I get it. But someone else might not. It’s that, the not caring about other people, that frankly pisses me off about other people.

It’s the people wearing their masks under their noses.

It’s staff not enforcing the vaccine mandate.

It’s people not socially distancing.

They might not mean it this way, but to me they may as well be holding up a sign saying they don’t care about other people.

That’s what pisses me off.

We’re looking for a caring, energetic person to help us in our Dental Clinic.

Experience would be great, but if you’re keen to learn new skills, you are welcome to apply.

20 years in our service Former Southern Downs Mayor Peter Blundell passed away just before 3 am on 24 December after a very short battle with cancer.

His funeral was held in Stanthorpe on Wednesday 5 January.

He is survived by his wife Charlie, whom he married on 11 September last year.

He is also survived by his sons Peter and Harry, his daughter Nicola, his grandchildren, and his brother James.

We extend our deepest sympathies to the family.

He will be sadly missed by all who knew him

and by the residents of the Southern Downs, and there is no doubt the Stanthorpe Show will not be the same without his velvet voice over the loudspeaker.

Peter served on Stanthorpe Shire Council and Southern Downs Regional Council from 1997 to 2016, serving as Mayor in his final four years.

We will be including a full tribute to Peter in next week’s edition, and ask that anyone who wishes to have any words included please send them to newsdesk@warwickstanthorpetoday. com.au

Former SDRC Mayor Peter Blundell passed away on 24 December.

A name by any other name: District signs misspelt

By Emily-Rose Toohey Street signs throughout Stanthorpe have been misspelt, as brought up at the last council meeting of 2021.

Councillor Stephen Tancred noted in the meeting that Lock Street was spelt two different ways.

“It comes down to human error,” Cr Tancred said.

He said although these have been amended, the sign outside the library carpark still says ‘Locke’ instead of ‘Lock’.

Southern Downs Regional Council Mayor Vic Pennisi said having the correct signs is important.

“We’re very conscious of it and we try and sort that out where we can,” Cr Pennisi said.

Cr Tancred said there are other street signs in Stanthorpe with multiple spellings which will hopefully be corrected over the coming months.

He said that the correctly spelt ‘Pancor Road’ sign from the highway bypass has been removed, and only the main misspelt ‘Pancour Road’ sign remains.

Cr Tancred also said that the main ‘Gangemi Road’ sign is misspelt as ‘Gamgemi’.

Covid surges in the region

By Dominique Tassell In almost three weeks, Covid-19 cases in the Southern Downs region have risen to almost 300.

Cases were confirmed in the region prior to Christmas, with 16 cases documented in the region on 27 December.

At the time of print, there were 290 cases in the community. The state announced 20,566 new cases on Tuesday 11 January.

With over 100,000 cases in the state, Health Minister Yvette D’Ath stated on Tuesday 11 January that they expected a large number of cases to be going unreported.

“We do expect that is an under-reporting,” she said.

“There are many other people in the community who are showing symptoms who have not either registered their tests or have come forward for PCR tests at this stage.”

Over the weekend, the region’s numbers increased steadily, however, case numbers are expected to be higher across the state due to Rapid Antigen Test shortages, PCR testing wait times, and four testing centres being down earlier in the week.

A Darling Downs Health (DDH) spokesperson stated that the symptoms for Covid-19 regardless of variant remain the same – fever, sore throat, runny nose, fatigue, vomiting or nausea, loss of smell and/or taste, cough, shortness of breath, headache and diarrhoea.

For information on vaccination clinics on the Southern Downs, locals can visit www.qld. gov.au/health/covid19/vaccinelocations to see where they are able to get their vaccines.

The DDH spokesperson stated that locals can use a rapid antigen test (RAT) to check if they are likely to have Covid-19.

Rapid antigen tests can be completed by you at home and should give a result within 15-30 minutes.

They stated that rapid antigen test kits are available, if there is enough supply, at Queensland testing clinics for people who are eligible for a free RAT kit.

They highlighted that RAT kids can be purchased in retail shops and chemists, however we are experiencing a shortage in supply due to the sudden high demand for them.

They are expected to become more readily available in the next few weeks.

The DDH spokesperson stated that if your RAT returns a positive result, it is likely you have Covid-19. You do not need a PCR test to confirm a positive RAT result.

If your RAT returns a negative result, it is likely you do not have Covid-19 but you should continue to monitor your health for any Covid-19 symptoms.

If the result is inconclusive, repeat the test on a new kit.

Ms D’Ath announced earlier this month that people can call 134 268 or visit the Queensland Health website to catalogue positive rapid test results.

When asked why daily cases in the region have been low on certain days when they have been otherwise consistently higher, the DDH representative stated that “the statistics on

Dr Gerrard said having just six people on ventilators and 27 in ICU showed the vaccine was having an impact in preventing people getting seriously ill.

A mask mandate is still in place across the state. positive cases may go up and down across the state – there is no one reason for this”.

“We do know that the best way to protect yourself against Covid-19 is to maintain hand hygiene, social distancing, wearing a mask, and importantly, getting vaccinated.”

From 4 January, the wait time between second doses and booster shots was shortened to four months.

Chief Health Officer John Gerrard has previously stated that he credits our low hospitalisation rates to the vaccination for preventing serious symptoms.

However, on Tuesday 11 January he stated that the number of people in Queensland hospitals being treated for Covid-19 is “escalating fairly rapidly” and the number will grow to be “quite significant” in coming weeks.

It was previously speculated that the high numbers were a result of a hot spot on the Gold Coast, where vaccine levels remain low.

While hospitalisations have increased, the number of people requiring ventilators and in the ICU has remained low.

Dr Gerrard said having just six people on ventilators and 27 in ICU showed the vaccine

“To put that in context, I was in Tokyo at the beginning of the pandemic dealing with the Diamond Princess outbreak, where we had 700 people infected with Covid-19, of which over 30 were on ventilators and in intensive care units,” he said.

“Now in Queensland, we have well over 100,000 people that are infected, we have documented over 100,000 infections through testing, and we have just 27 people in intensive care units in Queensland at the moment.

“The lesson is the vaccines are working, they are specifically working on preventing people from getting critically ill and reducing hospital admissions.”

Children aged between five and 11 can now get vaccinated, with more than 6,500 children receiving a vaccine dose at state-run clinics on Monday 10 January Reportedly about 38,404 children are in the booking system.

Commonwealth as quickly as possible so that we can get all of these sites up and running and offering vaccinations,” Ms D’Ath said.

“I understand pharmacies and GPs are not taking bookings at the moment because they want to see those vaccines in their hands.

“That’s completely understandable, but we need the Commonwealth to get these vaccines as quickly as possible.”

A mask mandate is currently in place across the state.

The mandate includes shops, hospitals, aged care, public transport, rideshares, airports, cinemas, theatres, and hospitality staff.

Ms D’Ath has previously emphasised that it is more important than ever to get vaccinated.

“It’s about reducing the risk of those cases coming to your regional, remote towns,” Ms D’Ath said.

Ms D’Ath said individuals are not required to carry masks at all times but are strongly encouraged to do so.

“Mask wearing takes very little effort, but is a highly effective tool in our fight against Covid-19,” Ms D’Ath said.

Shows on the back foot

By Dominique Tassell Rising rates of Omicron infection have caused upcoming agriculture shows to take drastic action, with at least one cancelled while others postpone.

The Stanthorpe Show, the first 2022 show in the state, announced late last week that they would be postponing.

The Stanthorpe Agricultural Society posted to Facebook announcing the change.

Show President, Brett “Boaty” Boatfield, wrote that “this has not been an easy decision for me, and members of the general committee”.

He stated that a number of factors were considered when making the decision, the main one being the health and safety of the volunteers, exhibitors, stall holders and attendees.

He then stated that the financial implications were another major factor, and what may happen if the show was forced to cancel at the last minute.

“I must emphasise that we are just postponing the show,” Brett wrote in his statement.

“We are looking at all options that are available to us to continue this great tradition at a later date.”

He stated that while the Stanthorpe Show normally kicks off the show season, the event will be great no matter what time of the year it is held.

The show will discuss the options available to them with Queensland Chamber of Agricultural Shows, the Showmen’s Guild, sponsors, and other key stakeholders in relation to a suitable alternative date.

He confirmed that the Society will provide further advice about options and dates as the information becomes available.

“Let us get through this current change in the health of our state and come out the other side healthier and ready to party at the show.”

Next to announce action was the Allora Show, which sadly decided to cancel.

In a press release, The Management Committee of the Allora Show Society stated they have done “everything in its power, in the hope that the 2022 Allora Show would continue as it has done for the past 144 years”.

They stated that the community has been relatively lucky so far, remaining untouched by “the ‘beast’ that has been called ‘Covid’”.

The Show Society stated that after a number of Management Committee Meetings, and with recent developments and predictions in mind, it has been decided to cancel the 2022 Allora Show.

“This decision hasn’t been made lightly and is very disappointing for all the remarkable volunteers who have been working tirelessly to prepare the Showgrounds for its signature event.”

The release stated that the Committee feels an obligation to keep safe the volunteers who make the show possible.

“In light of the present outbreaks in our district, the number of cases increasing daily, and the peak of the current wave predicted to be at the time of the Show, it has been decided that

the risk to our Community was far too great to proceed.

“The impact of one positive case within a family would have serious implications for them, including possible health issues and disruption to work commitments.”

The Management Committee stated that the decision is a risk-based approach regarding an assessment of the effects of our community.

“Whilst it is acknowledged by authorities that Covid will continue to spread, the aim is to slow the spread to enable medical capabilities to manage along with minimising impact on local businesses.

“The Allora Show Society is not an authority to ‘challenge’ or try and ‘get around’

Queensland Health requirements; nor do we wish to impose those consequences on our community.

“The society is not in favour of providing a ‘super spreader’ event which may result in an amplified detrimental effect on our community whether it be by illness or requirements to isolate.

They stated that the Bull Ride will be postponed to a date later in the year, and the showgrounds are open for use and will welcome groups “who wish to hold practicable sized events during these times”.

The Killarney Show then announced on Monday 10 January that they would be postponing their show.

The committee stated online that “many

factors were considered when making this decision, first and foremost, our responsibility to the health and safety of our community, members, volunteers and supporters”.

“The management committee believe that, given the current situation, this is in the best interest of all.”

The committee stated that they have been extremely fortunate to have been able to hold the show for the last two years.

Given the society’s inability to hold regular events over the last two years, the committee stated the financial impacts of a last-minute cancellation would not be something the society could justify.

The committee is still planning to hold the show, which will be the 110th Killarney Show, later in the year when they have been advised by the Queensland Chamber of Agricultural Shows of a new date.

“Due to the uncertainty of the times this may not be known for a few weeks or even months,” the committee stated.

The committee thanked all the volunteers who have contributed to this year’s show, and their sponsors for their support.

“We look forward to celebrating our community, entrants and exhibits at our 110th Show.

“Until we see you again, please stay safe and healthy.”

At the time of print, the Clifton Show Society has not made any announcements regarding their show on 11-13 February.

The Warwick Rodeo & Show Society has also not made any announcements, though their show is scheduled for 18-20 March.

Southern Downs Regional Council confirmed that the public holidays for the shows will still go ahead.

Public holidays will be observed on 28 January for the postponed Stanthorpe Show, on 4 February for the cancelled Allora Show, and on 18 February for the postponed Killarney Show.

A Southern Downs Regional Council representative stated on Tuesday 11 January that they were currently reviewing the Great Australian Bites and Australia Day events and would make an announcement late in the week.

Apple and Grape Festival President, Russel Wantling, posted online stating that they had received an influx of calls asking about the state of the event.

He stated they appreciated all the phone calls of support and concern in relation to the festival “At this stage the Festival is all systems go.

We are still eight weeks out from the main weekend so we are hopeful time is on our side.”

Russell stated that “an event of this magnitude has a lot of moving parts and so many businesses and organisations involved, so the directors and myself will continue to work towards an outcome that is the best and safest scenario for all”.

He stated they will review the situation at the beginning of February and will keep everyone informed of any changes.

“Let’s stay positive and if we continue to work together I am sure we will make it through these trying times.”

Schools return delayed

By Emily-Rose Toohey Premier Annastacia Palaszczuk announced a two-week school start delay on Sunday afternoon.

The announcement followed Queensland recording 18 000 new Covid-19 cases the night prior.

The new start date for students is 7 February rather than 24 January.

However, Ms Palaszczuk said Year 11 and 12 students will start remote learning from 31 January.

“Schools will still be open for vulnerable children and children of essential workers,” Ms Palaszczuk said.

“This is going to be a tough time of year for a lot of people.”

She said Queensland is expected to reach its Omicron wave peak during the last week of January and the first week of February.

“Therefore, it is not desirable to have our children starting school during the peak of this wave – this is a necessary delay,” Ms Palaszczuk said.

“It allows more time for people to be vaccinated; please book your child to be vaccinated.”

Health Minister Yvette D’Ath said individuals should use the two-week delay to vaccinate the 5- to-11-year-old age group in particular, as this group only became eligible on 10 January.

“January and February are going to be tough months for Queensland,” Ms D’Ath said.

“Whether it’s your first or second jab, or your booster, do not delay – it’s the best way to protect yourself against COVID-19.”

Education Minister Grace Grace said students will not miss out on essential content due to the start of term delay.

“Teachers will review lesson plans to deliver the curriculum accordingly,” Ms Grace said.

Ms Palaszczuk said students below Year 11 will instead complete an extra week of school at the year’s end, finishing 16 December.

“I thank you for your patience and understanding,” she said.

Woolworths CEO Brad Banducci released a statement about the shortage.

Food flying off shelves

Food shortages as a result of the pandemic are affecting local stores, with some putting in place buying limits on food items.

Locals have reported finding it hard to buy items in-store, specifying difficulties buying meat and having large amounts of substitutions on online orders.

Brad Banducci, the CEO of Woolworths Group, released a statement about the shortage.

He stated that the shortage is due to the number of people in Woolworths’ supply chain who are in isolation, “from suppliers to truck drivers and distribution centre team members”.

This shortage is causing material delays to store deliveries, he said.

“To give you a sense of the magnitude of the challenge, we are experiencing Covid-driven absences of 20 per cent in our distribution centres and 10 per cent in our stores.”

Reportedly New South Wales is the most affected state in the country, although Mr Banducci stated “we are seeing impacts across the whole country, and it’s not yet clear how soon the system will come back into balance as we move through the Omicron wave”.

“We understand how frustrating it is when you can’t find the product you’re looking for

and, together with our suppliers and supply chain partners, we’re working hard to get all products back on shelf as quickly as we can (including Rapid Antigen Tests).”

Mr Banducci stated that Woolworths has enough stock in the system and a good supply of products in each category though people may not be able to find their favourite brand.

He stated it is helpful if customers can be flexible with the choices they make.

“We would of course also ask you to keep shopping as you normally would and to continue to show kindness to our teams,” he said.

He stated that when shopping online, Woolworths is automatically activating substitutions on all orders.

“We know this isn’t ideal, but it does mean there’s less chance of missing out on something you really need. We’ll revert to your preference as soon as possible.”

Mr Banducci stated that Woolworths will continue to keep learning and adapting as the pandemic continues, and will communicate any changes to customers as they arise.

Coles has imposed restrictions on food items, with customers now limited to two packs per customer of chicken breasts and chicken thighs - or six pieces from the deli.

Two-pack limits also apply to mince and sausages.

Upcoming 2022 projects

By Emily-Rose Toohey Southern Downs Regional Council have plans to undertake a plethora of projects in the region throughout 2022.

However, Southern Downs Regional Council Mayor Vic Pennisi said council’s first major priority is establishing a budget.

“January is the month where a lot of the groundwork really starts to be put together,” Cr Pennisi said.

“Focus will be on every department and

what they need for their department.”

He said there are some interesting projects in the pipeline, including the beginnings of extensions to the Stanthorpe Art Gallery and Library.

“That’s one big project that should materialise as we go through this year,” Cr Pennisi said.

He said another project includes potential funding for the saleyards.

“That’s a project that we will certainly be focusing on,” Cr Pennisi said.

“I would also expect that the drag strip will be finished soon and the first drag club meeting will happen out there for the quarter mile.

“I’d like to think we can also complete the pipeline to Morgan Park with effluent water and we can increase our footpaths around the place.”

Other items Cr Pennisi said needed addressing included evaluating how waste is being dealt with in the region through waste streams.

“We’ve also got a lot of road work that we need to bring to fruition,” he said.

“We need to finalise the claims through the Reconstruction Authority first.”

As of this stage, the final item Cr Pennisi said was in store for the year is Emu Swamp Dam. “Hopefully the impediments will vaporise somehow and we can get on with that project,” he said.

Nonetheless, Cr Pennisi said there is still plenty to do throughout the region.

Allora Heritage Weekend postponed due to Covid

By Dominique Tassell The Allora Heritage Weekend 2022 has been postponed.

The Allora Heritage Weekend is held annually at the Allora Showgrounds, showcasing machinery, trucks, cars and more from all over Australia.

The decision was made late last week after The Committee and Members met to discuss the Heritage Weekend.

Those present made a unanimous vote that, based on the current Covid-19 situation and the risk to volunteers, patrons and the wider community, that the weekend would be postponedto a later date.

The committee stated that they will advise the community of the new date after their next meeting on 16 February.

“We apologise for the late notice but be-

lieve it is in everyone’s best interests,” they stated.

The event was scheduled to take place on 22 and 23 January.

The decision was met with mixed reviews, with some people commenting that the pandemic will still be affecting the region later in the year and postponing the date will not combat this.

They stated that the decision was sad for those who had been working hard in the lead up to the event.

The Allora Heritage Weekend responded to these concerns, stating that they have a duty of care to their patrons and volunteers.

“This was not an easy decision to make on an event that has been going on for 29 years.”

Many other locals supported the decision, stating that it was sad but the right thing to do given the circumstances.

Apple and Grape royalty

By Emily-Rose Toohey Ballandean Estate Wines hosted the launch of a weekly podcast on Saturday exploring behind the scenes stories about Stanthorpe’s Apple and Grape festival.

At the event, Southern Downs Regional Council Mayor Vic Pennisi showcased 8mm film archival footage his father shot of the fashion regatta at Storm King Dam from 1955 and 1964.

Podcast producer Lou Bromley said the series, titled ‘Beyond the Crown’, will feature 10 episodes celebrating the festival’s past Queens, Princesses, and Young Ambassadors.

“Beyond the Crown is part-oral history, part-documentary and part-photographic,” Lou said.

She said that Stanthorpe has hosted Australia’s longest-running apple festival since its establishment in 1954.

10 TODAY Thursday, 13 January, 2022

“It finally evolved into the Apple and Grape Harvest Festival in 1966 and now draws over 60 000 people to Stanthorpe,” Lou said.

She said she was surprised to discover that the smallest apple growing district in Australia hosts the longest continuous running apple festival in the country.

“It’s a wonderful birthday surprise for Stanthorpe turning 150 in 2022,” Lou said.

She said episode one of the podcast is about Dorothy Papagallo, who was Miss Orchardist 1957 and one of the first Queens.

“Her family grew apples, stone fruit and vegetables in the Ballandean area, a property which now hosts Accommodation Creek Cottages and Granite Ridge Wines,” she said.

Episode 1, ‘Sputnik and the Festival Queen’ is available on Spotify and Apple Podcasts for listening and will be updated weekly until mid-March.

For the generations: ‘The Lost Daughter’ movie review

By Emily-Rose Toohey In the age of streaming services, the movie landscape has never looked so different.

Netflix is dominating our viewing and in recent years, the platform has tried to catch up with the big league studios and offer prestige programming.

Actress Maggie Gyllenhaal’s directorial debut, ‘The Lost Daughter’, is exactly what Netflix is looking for.

After premiering to positive reviews at Venice Film Festival last September, ‘The Lost Daughter’ finally made its Netflix debut on 31 December.

Quite honestly, it’s a great film.

It stars the always excellent Olivia Colman as a nearly 60-year-old woman who decides to vacation alone to Greece.

She becomes obsessed with a young mother (played by Dakota Johnson) and her daughter as she reflects upon the difficulties of her own motherhood experiences raising her children.

Jessie Buckley plays Colman’s younger self in a myriad of flashback sequences that are both affecting and sincere.

Before I continue, however, here’s a disclaimer: I am not a mother.

While the movie itself is undeniably emotional, this emotion may be felt particularly strongly by parents – especially mothers.

It offers a look into the struggles of loving your children and wishing for some time away from the sometimes chaotic world of motherhood the film depicts.

It’s a quiet movie that allows the audience to sit with its characters and feel their every 12 TODAY Thursday, 13 January, 2022

emotion deeply. It also asks for your empathy.

This is never more apparent than when it’s revealed that Colman’s character made a choice to temporarily leave her family life behind.

She is mingled with both debilitating regret and a longing for this same freedom

years later as she sits quietly on a beach.

It’s messy and it’s complicated, and it’s beautifully depicted onscreen.

It’s a testament to modern storytelling and the genius of female creatives both in front of and most importantly, behind the camera, that a movie like this was even made. Humans

are flawed beings and not everything is easy.

This film shows motherhood like it’s never been shown before and its truly fantastic.

But in all truth, the reality of the tale it tells is also extremely heartbreaking.

‘The Lost Daughter’ is available now on Netflix.

2021 Our Year in Review 202201102621_1-BL03-22

Water nowhere to be found Drought has affected many within our region, particularly growers.

Here’s a look back from January 2021 at the Palaszczuk Government’s funding for drought declared areas.

The Palaszczuk Government says it is supporting community groups, local councils, not-for-profit organisations and school P&Cs in Queensland’s drought-declared communities with $5 million in grant funding available under the latest round of the Community Drought Support Program.

Minister for Communities and Housing Leeanne Enoch said from “Winton to Warwick, 67 percent of Queensland is now drought-declared and the opening of the $5 million grant round will assist these impacted communities”.

“We know that Queenslanders living in the state’s 41 fully drought-declared and four partially drought-declared areas are doing it tough and will continue to need our support,” Ms Enoch said.

“The Community Drought Support Program grants form a part of the Palaszczuk Government’s drought funding package of more than $50 million in 2020-21.

“The program will help recipients deliver food, vouchers, care packages, school breakfasts, assistance with bill payments and boost social connectedness in their communities by hosting events and activities.

“Drought affects more than just the farmers and agri-businesses in these communities and the grants will extend support to non-farming small business operators including local tradespeople and retailers.”

In the previous round, 61 organisations shared in $5 million funding including recipients like the Charleville School of Distance Education P&C Association, the Tara and

District Family Support Committee and the Longreach, Inglewood and Monto Show Societies.

Treasurer and Operations Chair of WQDC Inc. Jenny Coombes said people who have received the Community Drought Funding have really appreciated it.

“After long years of drought, finances are always a struggle. Being able to use these funds to clear some accounts or make a purchase they have been putting off really lifts their spir-

its,” Ms Coombes said.

“I’d encourage organisations wanting to assist drought communities to apply for this funding as it becomes available.”

Minister Enoch encouraged eligible organisations, groups and local councils to apply for the Community Drought Support Program funding.

“Many communities are now recovering from not only the drought, but also the impacts of COVID-19 on local tourism and trade

in their towns.

“Just as we have supported Queenslanders through floods, cyclones and bushfires, the Palaszczuk Government will continue to support communities as they recover from devastating drought.”

Applications close on 15 February 2021. For more information about how the Queensland Government is assisting drought-affected communities, visit www.communities.qld.gov. au/funding.

2021 Our Year in Review 202201102621_1-BL03-22

Core location unchanged After months of speculation and uncertainty, it was decided that Stanthorpe’s ‘The Big Apple’ would not be relocating last year.

Here’s our original article from 3 March before the final verdict...

Southern Downs Regional Council (SDRC) will soon begin community consultation on plans to relocate one of the Granite Belt’s most iconic landmarks, the Big Apple.

Councillors unanimously voted to endorse public consultation and investigation into the potential relocation and refurbishment of the structure at last week’s ordinary meeting held 24 February, following requests from two Granite Belt businesses.

The decision comes as a shock to many members of the region, but perhaps to none more so than Vincenzo’s owner Jason Mattiazzi.

Jason said he and his family paid a total of approximately $20,000 for the Big Apple to be relocated to their property in the early 2000s under the premise Vincenzo’s would be its “forever home”.

“The Stanthorpe Shire Council told us back then, ‘if you want (the Big Apple), pay for the reinstallation’,” said Jason.

“I was actually the one who tightened the bolts on that post.”

Despite the promise of permanence by a previous council, Jason said the Mattiazzis have not been involved in any discussions with SDRC related to the potential relocation of the Big Apple.

“We think it’s very unprofessional that no one from Council has notified us of their plans,” he said.

“Shifting (the Big Apple) shouldn’t even be on the agenda.”

At this stage, two Granite Belt businesses have requested the Big Apple be moved to their individual properties – both of which are located on the New England Highway.

One of the businesses, located at Thulimbah, said in its request to Council that it would not be funding the costs of relocating, maintenance, engineering and insurance for the Big Apple and would instead seek assistance from Council to manage and support the relocation.

The other business, located between The Summit and Applethorpe, said it would refurbish the Big Apple at its own cost and would

‘The Big Apple’ at Stanthorpe. not require funding from Council.

Jason Mattiazzi of Vincenzo’s said he strongly objects to the proposed relocation of the Big Apple, calling discussions “a complete waste of time”.

“How do you think ratepayers are going to take to the idea they’ll have to help pay for the Big Apple to be moved across the road?” he asked.

“Council needs to think about the back pockets of the rate paying people, not just the back pockets of the applicant businesses.”

Jason said there are a number of reasons the structure should remain at its current site, including the fact it is a known tourist attraction and landmark.

“And it’s on all the maps… so there are all these added costs of relocation that have to be considered,” he said.

Jason said it is also important to remember the Big Apple does not just represent Stanthorpe, it represents all of the apple growers in the region and it should therefore be located where the apple farms are.

Councillor Stephen Tancred voiced similar concerns in last week’s ordinary meeting, referring to the structure’s established prominence in the region.

“The Big Apple is part of Stanthorpe’s DNA,” said Cr Tancred.

“If we can’t keep a lot of people happy, to keep it where it is is probably a good thing… especially because it’s already on a lot of maps and websites that tourist operators have put out for people to navigate their way around the region.”

Commitment to news that matters where you live In 2021, this publication made the change from the Southern Free Times to two separate mastheads: ‘Warwick Today’ and ‘Stanthorpe Today’.

Here’s a copy of the original announcement article from our 18 February edition...

From next Thursday, 25 February, the Southern Free Times will become two new mastheads – ‘Warwick Today’ and ‘Stanthorpe Today’ – in an exciting change which will further strengthen our commitment to covering the news that matters most to our readers.

‘Warwick Today’ and ‘Stanthorpe Today’ will present front page and page three stories specifically relating to each of our towns, while also covering topics in both editions of relevance both to Warwick and Stanthor14 TODAY Thursday, 13 January, 2022

pe but also our whole region, including our smaller communities in between and around those two centres.

What won’t change however is that both ‘Warwick Today’ and ‘Stanthorpe Today’ will be free on a Thursday, as the Southern Free Times is right now, and available from dozens of local outlets across our Southern Downs and Granite Belt communities – just grab a copy from wherever you usually pick up your ‘SFT’.

All in all, we’ll continue to have a combined readership audience of almost 20,000 people weekly, both in print and online – with our website becoming – WarwickStanthorpeToday.com.au The other thing that won’t change is our

focus on local news and events that matter most to our readers, but from next week you’ll also see some more exciting changes – more contributed material from talented writers across the region, more opinion and more photos of people ‘out and about’ enjoying all our wonderful region has to offer both the local and the visitor alike.

Star News Group Managing Director Paul Thomas said the Southern Free Times “has serviced the region for 20 years and is now the largest circulating publication in the area”.

“We have made many enhancements since July last year and this change is yet another improvement for the region to recognise the two distinct areas with different needs and desires”, Paul Thomas said.

Editor Jeremy Sollars said the new mastheads “mean readers will see a stronger focus on local news specifically relevant to the Warwick and Stanthorpe areas every week”.

“These publications will provide local readers with new sections, columns and information and will build on the numerous changes that have taken place with the Southern Free Times over recent months,” he said.

“What won’t change is our commitment to keep communities informed about the ‘hot topics’ driving debate and discussion in the region, as well as the stories behind the people, events and community groups which make the Southern Downs and Granite Belt great places to live.”

The Guide SEX & MUSIC: BLURRED GENDERS SBS Viceland, Friday, 9.20pm

Going places: Comedian Rosie Jones, right, and presenter Scarlett Moffatt hit the road in Trip Hazard.

You could say that sex and music go hand in hand – but that wasn’t always the case. Back in the ’50s, around 3% of pop songs mentioned sex.

Fast-forward to 2009 and 92% of songs were about the birds and the bees. This insightful series explores how pop music has influenced our sex lives and vice versa. Take a look at how performers such as David Bowie (pictured) and Mick Jagger, and their unique representations of gender, have influenced our appearances and attitudes.

WHY WOMEN KILL SBS Viceland, Saturday, 8.30pm

Don’t mistake this campy series as another true-crime documentary lifting the lid on murderous women.

The cheekily titled Why Women Kill is a gaudy and fun creation from Marc Cherry, the man behind the smash hit drama of the early 2000s, Desperate Housewives. Season two of the black comedy introduces a new cast and a striking 1940s setting, along with more swoon-worthy costumes. We meet Alma (Allison Tolman, Fargo, pictured) who dreams of filling a recently vacated seat in her local garden club.

PICK OF THE WEEK TRIP HAZARD: MY GREAT BRITISH ADVENTURE SBS Viceland, Monday, 8.30pm

Comedian Rosie Jones fronts this travel caper with an infectious grin. The refreshing series sees her take a celebrity pal with her in each episode exploring Britain, in her own words: “going to sh** places and making the most of it”. It’s a cheeky and uplifting journey, which is narrated by Olivia Colman, and sees Jones not only check out some rather beautiful locations, but parody the travel show genre with pretend “behind the scenes” scenes. In this doubleepisode premiere, the shenanigans kick off with Jones whisking presenter Scarlett Moffatt to the former home of William Wordsworth.

After the silly season of parties and junk food, many of us are craving some investigative journalism to bring us back to reality and, after more than 40 years of serving just that, 60 Minutes is a winner. In this week’s instalment, Sarah Abo (pictured) takes a look at the medical mystery of foreign accent syndrome. Tara Brown revisits the incredible story of Pasquale Buzzelli, the miracle man of 9/11, who survived after falling 18 floors as the towers collapsed.

2021 Our Year in Review 202201102621_1-BL03-22

Muscle, dust and drama Here’s our story from last year’s Warwick Rodeo and Gold Cup Campdraft...

This year’s Gold Cup Campdraft has well and truly kicked off, kicking up dust from early on Monday morning.

Campdrafting is a unique Australian sport involving a horse and rider working cattle.

Known by many as the “Melbourne Cup” of campdrafting, the Warwick Gold Cup attracts more riders and offers more prize money than any other campdraft in Australia.

Worth over $105,000 plus a Gold Cup and a trophy saddle, it is and has been for many years, regarded as the Australian Championship Campdraft.

The Canning Downs Campdraft also offers a significant prize worth $52,500 and its own trophy saddle as does Saturday’s $5,000 Stallion Campdraft.

Campdrafting competitions involve a rider on horseback guiding a beast from the “camp” or mob of cattle and through a course. This requires them to turn the beast two or three times to prove they have control.

Then, the rider has to guide the beast in a figure eight before guiding it through the gate.

This must all be completed in a short amount of time, around 40 seconds.

Events for juniors 8 years and under 13 years have one sound beast in the camp or yard at all times, while in other events the recommended minimum of stock in the camp is six.

Riders are judged on their cut out, horse work, and course. There’s a total of 100 up for grabs.

The cracking of a whip signals that a competitor has been disqualified, which usually occurs when a rider has lost control of their beast more than twice on the camp, lost control in the arena, or run the beast into the arena fence.

A “tail turn” executed by a horse in the opposite direction of the beast’s line of travel also incurs disqualification at any stage of the draft.

The sport requires consummate skill and horsemanship, and the skill in selecting a beast from the mob that will run well, but is not too fast for that particular horse.

Great prestige is bestowed on the winning horse and rider of the competition.

Dam from famine to feast Here’s some images of Leslie Dam hitting 100 per cent capacity last year alongside our original article from 9 December.

Leslie Dam hit 100 per cent last week after intense rain filled up the dam over 20 per cent within days.

While the flooding due to the rain was cause for concern, locals were all smiles about the full dam.

Locals gathered at the dam on Thursday afternoon, hoping to see the dam floodgates open once capacity was reached.

The water release was expected to happen around 6 pm, however did not occur until around 10 pm that night.

Throughout the rest of the week and over the weekend, locals flocked to the dam to see the historic levels, with the pipe open over the weekend to let water out after the gates were closed.

Tiny organism that turned the world on its head When reflecting on the past year, the Coronavirus pandemic sure comes to mind.

With our vaccination rates now climbing upwards, new government policies in place, and the emergence of more variants, it is hard to imagine a world before Covid-19.

Here’s one of our stories from September about the vaccination clinics in our region...

Recent vaccine clinics have seen almost 5000 locals get their jab in Warwick and Stanthorpe.

A Darling Downs Health (DDH) spokesperson thanked the people of the Southern Downs for their participation in last week’s Covid-19 vaccination clinic in Warwick.

The Warwick vaccine clinic, which ran from Tuesday 24 August to Saturday 28 August, provided more than 3400 people with their first doses of Pfizer vaccine.

There will be a follow-up clinic for dose two in three weeks’ time.

The Stanthorpe vaccine clinic, held from Tuesday 10 August to Friday 13 August, saw more than 1500 locals get their jab.

Clinics have also recently been held at Goondiwindi and Texas.

In total, Darling Downs Health has administered almost 50,000 doses of Covid-19 vaccines at clinics this year.

A Darling Downs Health spokesperson encouraged locals who are still looking to get their jab to inquiry at Baillie Henderson Hospital.

“Our clinic at the Baillie Henderson Hospital campus in Toowoomba provides vaccines from 8.30am to 4.00pm, Monday to Friday, and is consistently fully booked”.

DDH encourages anyone who wants to receive a COVID-19 vaccination to phone 134COVID or register online via www.vaccinebookings.health.qld.gov.au The Pfizer vaccine is currently available to 24 TODAY Thursday, 13 January, 2022

Warwick vaccine clinic. anyone aged 16-59 years old, however private clinics may be prioritising certain groups.

A new mass vaccination hub is set to open in Brisbane on September 8.

The new clinic, in Boondall on Brisbane’s north, will initially have 1500 bookings per day but will increase to 3000 a day.

Doses of the Moderna vaccine are expected to arrive by the end of September after it was approved by the Therapeutic Goods Administration (TGA) on Monday 9 August.

As of Monday 30 August, 27.22 per cent of the Australian population is fully vaccinated.

The Federal Government initially stated

they hoped to vaccinate 4 million people by March, with a final target of October.

Recent targets aim to have 80 per cent of Australia population, aged above 16, fully vaccinated by December.

Australia is ranked 35 out of 38 for vaccination rates in the OECD.

Rural Links This week on the farm

By Judy Barnet, Ag Columnist Christmas has come and gone and my week has passed by without anything exciting to report, which is not a bad thing at all for a change. I hope you all had a relaxed and enjoyable time. I have been winding down and recharging my batteries. I have now given myself until the New Year to wind back up and start organising my annual sheep auction, the Rare Breeds Trust auction, sheep for the Stanthorpe Show and some work for the Pig Breeders Association.

We enjoyed Christmas Day with friends from Golden Beach, near Caloundra. Bez and Stone arrived on Thursday bearing gifts of food to add to our already stuffed full fridges, including some absolutely delicious prawns and a turducken, just to name a few. For those of you who don’t know (I had to google it), a turducken is basically a three bird roast with a de-boned duck and chicken stuffed inside a de-boned turkey! It was delicious. The turducken was accompanied with roast potatoes, pumpkin, parsnip and home grown greens. Topped off with Pavlova, it was a magnificent meal.

After lunch I took a few photos of Stone who looked resplendent and won the best dressed outfit by a country mile! Stone tried his hand at fishing but nothing was biting.

However, I did discover that it was at least an environmentally way to get rid of the prawn heads, using them as bait. Particularly after last year’s disaster, putting them in the compost bin and then realising it was not such a good idea after a couple of days, especially with the bins being not far from the holiday cottage. Dora the Explorer also enjoyed Christmas as she got to hang out with us all day, although Smokey the cat wasn’t so impressed with Dora invading her home!

Bez and Stone had a great time and have organised to come back at Easter. Bez was browsing online and came across a seven man tent being given away. She took this as a sign it was meant to be and was thrilled when she picked up her freebie, ringing me and excitedly declaring they would be camping at ours this Easter! At the same time Stone, who is a master stonemason, is making plans to draw a mural on the wall of the holiday cottage. This came about after he showed me a picture of a mural he did of a huge turtle on a wall in Caloundra.

It was only a few months ago I saw a magnificent mural in Ems Cafe at Stanthorpe and at the time I thought how wonderful it would be to have a mural on the cottage, thinking it would just be a pipe dream!

Dear Richie, who can barely sit still for five minutes, decided that Boxing Day would be

Stone’s Art. a good day to chop down a couple of trees in the sheep yards where I had planned to make a loading ramp straight into the upstairs pens that house the sheep for shearing. Now, very close to the tree in the yards, there are the Rams and Ewes toilets complete with curved roofs. These were waiting to be transported to our camping and picnic area, “The view from the top.” In fact, I had asked Dear Richie several times if we could load them on the car trailer and take them up, however, there was always something more important to do. I previously had to block off the Ewes toilet after several piglets went exploring and fell down the hole!

Unfortunately, things didn’t go quite to plan and the picture here shows the result. I didn’t actually see it for several days as I was working and every day Dear Richie had kindly offered to feed and water the calves for me. Now I know why!

Until next week, stay safe everyone, I hope you enjoy these Christmas photos!

‘Exceptional’ bee season

By Emily-Rose Toohey The Southern Downs Amateur Beekeepers Association experienced an exceptional swarming season last year.

Amateur Beekeepers Association chairman John Craig said in his years of experience, he has never witnessed so many swarms

in the area.

“I was contacted about forty swarms – there’s been a lot more to do,” John said.

John has been a member of the association for over ten years and the chairman for three years.

He said swarm season last year began at the end of spring and the increased number of

swarms was due to the extra rain.

“If there are problems with bees around the area, we can help,” John said.

The Amateur Beekeepers Association meets on the third Monday evening of each month and also hosts a practical field day.

John said the meetings and field days are for both beekeepers and people wanting to

improve their beekeeping skills.

“Beginners of any age or level of experience are welcome to attend to get some practical experience,” he said.

“There’s certainly more to keeping bees than having a hive in the backyard.

“It takes a lot to care and look after hives – feeding well and breeding well.”

Effective: Olsens product of the month stock of the ravages of that insect in an economical, efficient and effective manner.

The mini cattle yards.

A model of generosity

By Judy Barnet, Ag Columnist It is not hard to imagine that an awful lot of work went into making this set of miniature cattle yards. Every gate is hinged with minuscule hinges that open and shut with a timber slide just as you would see in a real set of cattle yards.

I can’t trace the origin or maker of these yards however I can imagine they have brought children much joy and entertainment over the years. It gives me immense pleasure to let you know that these yards are now going to continue on that journey of giving someone joy and pleasure thanks to the Stanthorpe Men’s Shed who have helped with the restoration of the yards. The next step in this project will be auctioning the yards on AuctionsPlus and this will provide the Rare Breeds Trust of Australia with some funds to continue on with their Future Farm Genebank Programme. Here is the story of how this came to be.

I purchased this set of yards for the princely sum of $30 in July 2021 for the sole purpose of donating to the RBTA thinking it would be an ideal item to offer in the Trusts 2022 International Heritage Breeds Week Auction which raises funds for their Future Farms Genebank.

I was pleased as punch with my purchase and also felt pleased that something that had had so much work put into building them would continue to be of use hopefully for many years to come. The only problem being that the base of the yards was chipboard and in need of restoration, not a job that was really up my alley.

After a few months of wondering how I was going to get the yards restored, I happened to read an article about a local Men’s Shed and thought they would be the perfect people to do the job.

Enter Terry and a bit of a funny story. I called Terry and explained I had a set of miniature cattle yards that needed some restoration work and Terry replied no problems at all. We 28 TODAY Thursday, 13 January, 2022

arranged to meet that Friday Morning, Terry said he would make sure he was there to help unload them. Well, I had not quite explained myself properly as when I arrived at the Men’s Shed Terry was there to greet me along with several other men all ready to unload the yards! - They thought I was bringing a real set of yards but in miniature to hold miniature sheep, goats etc! Not such a big job as they had imagined! The men did an amazing job on restoring the yards for a small donation and I was very grateful indeed.

The yards will be auctioned on Auctionsplus May 15-21 to coincide with International Heritage Breeds Week. I am currently working on seeking donations for the auction which will be the RBTA’s second annual auction, the first being held last year. As the organiser of the auction, I have tended to focus on asking for donations from my contacts in the Southern Downs and Toowoomba areas but many donations last year were made from all parts of Australia, notably the Zoos from every state that came onboard. Our local Darling Downs Zoo pitched in with some passes to the Zoo. Other very generous local sponsors were Kent Saddlery and Riverina Stockfeeds. I donated a two-night stay in the Glenlyon Dam Holiday Cottage and will be doing the same again this year.

I would love to stock the yards with good quality cattle such as Schleich brand breeds which would add to its value, so if anyone has any spare cows, calves or bulls they would like to donate please do not hesitate to contact me.

This story truly is a good news recycle story that has benefited others in so many ways – it is providing two charity organisations with funds and a local club with a project. So next time you go to throw something out that could possibly be of use to someone else – think twice and donate it to reap the benefits of a better future for all Australians and the earth!

NEWS

U3A delays sign-on day With the outbreak of the Covid-19 Omicron variant currently impacting Queensland, the committee of Warwick U3A have reluctantly had to cancel their planned sign-on day set for 21 January at the Warwick RSL. “We have had to use an abundance of caution,” said Sandra Wilson, President. “U3A is an organisation aimed at active older people who might be vulnerable to this virus and we want to make it as safe as possible”.

The U3A term will still go ahead. Current members will soon be receiving the latest newsletter with membership application forms and outlines of all the courses/groups being offered this year. New members can check out the program on the website, where application forms are also available.

People can join U3A in one of two ways.

They can bring their application forms and payment to the U3A Tooth Street rooms on Thursday 20 January or Friday 21 January between 10 am and 3 pm.

Alternatively, they can post their forms with a cheque or direct deposit receipt. To enrol in a course, people must phone or email the course convenor direct – this cannot be done at the sign-on days.

“There will be some new groups this year” said Sally Edwards, Course coordinator. “We have line dancing and Scottish dancing for the first time. There is also a new gardening group, a new book group reading classic Australian novels, and a philosophy group reading Ekhardt Tolle.”

“Many of the old favourites return including Tai Chi, Mah Jong, bird watching, bushwalking and music groups.”

“U3A continues to be a wonderful resource for the older community, offering fun learning and social activities for those actively retired,” said Sandra Wilson.

Further information can be found on the website at u3awarwick.org.au or you can call Sandy Gordon on 0488 427 699.

The Merry Muster arrives On Saturday 4 December, a convoy of nine buses departed the Gold Coast and Brisbane with 500 city slickers on board headed for Queensland’s Scenic Rim and Granite Belt regions.

With pockets full of Christmas spending money, the guests spent up big with small’ bush businesses’ – contributing just under $157,000 to a region still recovering from heart-wrenching drought, the 2020 bushfires, Covid-19 and now flooding.

The Merry Muster, established in 2019, is about taking city folk and their Christmas shopping dollars out to regional areas to spend it, rather than here in the city at big shopping centres.

By spending it with small bush businesses doing it tough, guests can have a massive and direct impact on the livelihoods of families still in the long recovery from not only the drought but the flooding that occurred late last year or those affected by the bushfires that tore the country apart at the beginning of 2020.

Founder Kristin Bonner started The Merry Muster three years ago after watching the devastation of the drought in the media and feeling helpless to be of assistance.

She decided a girls Christmas shopping trip out West would at least redirect some city money out that way.

She put a call out on social media for some friends to join her in the car and within 24 hours, instead, had a full bus of 57 people, an event name, donations and sponsors.

And so The Merry Muster was born.

Kristin is passionate about finding ways for people to assist each other that isn’t simply about asking for money in this ‘donation tired’ society.

She believes people are inherently good and want to help and when you offer them a way to support others they take it.

Kristin said in 2020, they injected $117,500 into the Southern Downs with 350 people and seven buses. In 2021 they contributed $157,000 to the Scenic Rim and

Granite Belt regions by 500 people on nine buses.

“It’s always a completely joyous day as we get to meet and talk to so many small bush business owners and locals and show that we do care – we may be from the city but we care about our country cousins.”

The first stop on the 2021 itinerary was Summer Land Camels in the beautiful Scenic Rim, a picturesque camel farm and dairy which played host to a huge Christmas market filled with 100+ makers, bakers, creators, and growers from all over Queensland, organised in collaboration with Kerri Brennan from Buy From The Bush QLD. The market was purposely created to be open to the public to ensure the stallholders could benefit as financially as possible.

Here guests enjoyed a local produce morning tea, shopping, local entertainment and a delicious local produce lunch box that featured fresh produce from the camel farm and surrounding areas.

Back on the buses, the next stop was two hours southwest to the Granite Belt Christmas Farm.

Guests enjoyed a magnificent afternoon tea complete with a glass of bubbles, explored the farm’s huge onsite Christmas store and shopped up a storm at 35 local bush business market stalls organised by Buy From The Bush QLD. Late in the afternoon, a massive storm front rolled into the Granite Belt site where the market stalls were set up.

It literally picked up the stalls and all the goods and blew them away Instead of running to the buses many Merry Muster guests got out there in the rain, wind and lightning and helped rescue the stall owners by holding down marquees in gale force winds, packing stock or comforting distressed stallholders.

It shows that the heart of The Merry Muster guests extends further than just a will to support these bush businesses financially.

Garden Time

Beatrice Hawkins

Poinciana By the time you read this I will be home again after having a lovely trip over the mountains to see some family for the first time in many months.

The scenery on my drive was spectacular given the beautiful season we are enjoying with everything green and flourishing. Should have stopped and taken pictures as I saw some really lovely sights. Somehow they always seemed to be where it was not convenient or safe to pull over. One such sight was a herd of Limousin and Angus cattle in prime condition and up to their bellies in green feed.. what a sight!.. made this ex cattle producer’s heart sing! I must make more of an effort to stop and take the pictures.

As you all know I love trees and the poincianas are looking particularly pretty at the moment with the profusion of bright orange red flowers showing over the lovely bright green feathery leaves. This year I have noticed for the first time white petals in the centre of each flower looking for all the world like a white feather.

When I read about the tree I found that it is not uncommon for them to have this. The flower consists of 4 orange red large petals with a central “standard” with white or yellow colouring. As I haven’t spent a lot of time in areas where these wonderful trees grow, I hadn’t seen it before.. or perhaps I’ve never been around when the flowers were out like they are at present. Just now, many of the trees look as if they have small white birds dotted all over them.

Delonix regia is the botanical name and it is a legume, a part of the bean family. This is evident when the flowering tapers off and the long green beans set on the tree. These then turn brown and can be readily germinated to grow. The seeds can be poisonous to animals but are edible once boiled. The tree is native to Madagascar but is grown worldwide in suitable tropic to semi tropic climates for its wonderful flowers and fern like leaves. Not a good plant to grow to close to a house as it has a very invasive root system. I have seen them grown as a street tree and they provide wonderful shade but, given the nature of the root system, they are probably not a very good choice.

Another tree I have admired for years in coastal regions of N.S.W. is the African tulip tree and at present they are flowering well in many areas.

However, when I researched them, they also are a bother and apparently no longer allowed in Queensland. They are an environmental weed and spread easily by seed. They are very hardy and dry tolerant but prefer damp conditions and their roots will seek out moisture.

With the windblown seed settling in gullies and creeks, they really become a problem.

They are also a rapid grower and can reach to about 25 metres. They are hard to get rid of as they sucker prolifically when cut down if the stump is not poisoned or removed entirely. I have read of an instance where one tree was cut down and now there is almost a forest of suckers causing havoc to surrounding build-

ings, swimming pools, water systems and pathways with their extremely invasive roots.

They are listed in the top 100 world wide list of invasive trees! As is all this is not enough reason to get rid of them, they are toxic to native bees!

They are very attractive to the bees but tend to kill them very quickly with dead bees being found in the flowers. They are very attractive to birds and bats who seem to be their major pollinators.

Obviously from their name they are native to Nigeria and other West Africa countries where they grow in the tropical rainforest.

The botanical name is Spathodea campanulata and is reported to be used in the African areas as an anti convulsent and for the treatment of epilepsy, also for the treatment of kidney disease and as an antidote against animal poisons.

Given all that I have found about this beautiful tree I guess I am going to have to change my mind!

However, with research, I found an alternative in the fire wheel tree, stenocarpus sinuatus, an Australian native to rainforest areas from Nambucca in N.S.W. to the Atherton Tablelands, where it can grow to 30 metres tall. In a garden situation or street scape and in cooler climates, it is more likely to only reach 10 to 15metres. It has beautiful, bright red, wheel shaped flowers in late summer and glossy green leaves.

Another obvious choice for me would be any one of the wonderfully coloured flowering gums available as full size or dwarf varieties.

Perfect in many situations and with the dwarf variety used in the median strip on the New England Highway at Tamworth where they look terrific.

Casey O’Connor

Boland’s fairytale rise Here we are back again – 2022 well it is certainly beginning to feel like we are simply rewinding 2019 and 2021.

I hope our readers enjoyed a great Christmas and let’s hope 2022 turns the corner to something a little brighter very soon.

Of course, if you are a cricket fan the end of 2021 and the start of 2022 heralded something pretty special.

After the Aussie’s lost one of their main men, Hazelwood to that nasty little beast COVID a new face, Scott Boland emerged from the depths of Shield Cricket.

Where has this 32-year-old bowler been hiding everyone (especially the Poms) was asking after he decimated the English batting line up in a spell of 24 deliveries from which a legend was born and had the Poms on their knees.

If we fans thought it was surreal, imagine how Boland felt. Days before he had been preparing to have Christmas with his wife, kids and family only to receive a stunning call up from selectors.

Tossed the ball by Captain Pat there would not have been a person who could have imagined what was to follow.

Four overs.

One maiden.

Six wickets and Seven runs later it was just left for Cameron Green to mop up the final English wicket and the Ashes were done.

Six wickets for seven runs off four overs (insane numbers).

Simply remarkable and the stuff of fairytales.

Seriously you would be proud of those figures in a back yard match on Christmas Day – this was the MCG against the POMS and an Ashes series.

There was never a doubt who was going to be named man of the match and receive the Johnny Mullagh Medal struck to honour Australia’s first ever international touring team in 1867, an all-Indigenous side.

To add to the fairytale, Boland is just the second male Indigenous player to play Test Cricket for Australia. Jason Gillespie the only other.

It is only recently that Boland discovered his heritage and says he understand what it means to have an Indigenous cricketer starring on the international stage.

Boland was part an Indigenous team that toured England in 2018, celebrating the 150year anniversary of the first tour.

After receiving the commemorative medal crafted from an original belt buckle from the 1868 tour, the latest Aussie hero humbly said, “It’s something I’m very proud of now.”

Boland gave selectors little choice other than to pick him for Sydney where the fairytale continued. At one point he had figures of 2/0 from four overs and finished the game with 4/36.

In Sydney it was the turn of elegant batsman Usman Khawaja to have a moment in the spotlight with a century in each innings, joining the elite company of Ricky Ponting and Doug Walter as the only batsmen to have scored back-to-back centuries in tests at the SCG. A great effort after a long abscence from the test team.

The SCG Pink Test may have finished in a draw, but it was an enthralling contest and those who think Test cricket is dead and boring obviously didn’t watch cricket over the holiday break.

There is never such a thing as a dead rubber and the final Test which will be played at Blundstone Arena in Hobart will be far from it, if the fight that the Poms showed in Sydney is any indication.

Unfortunately, Scott Boland’s fairy godmother may have some work to do to get him on the park as he reportedly carried an injury though the final day’s play at the SCG and may not be fit for the final Test.

The Maryvale Australia Day Team are an institution at the Warwick Carnival and will be among a host of teams hoping the 2022 Carnival goes ahead.

Bring on Day One, Ball One on Friday.

There’s nothing like an Ashes series.

- Casey

if any decisions are made earlier.

Look for the full competition draw and further details in next week’s Spin.

MITCHELL SHIELD HEADACHES OF A DIFFERENT KIND BEFORE AUSTRALIA DAY CARNIVAL It is not unusual for headaches to be associated with the Australia Day cricket carnival in Warwick however they are usually of the selfinflicted variety following a good day’s play.

However, in 2022 the escalation of COVID cases across the Southern Downs and beyond is causing headaches of a very different variety for organisers of the iconic Cricket carnival.

Warwick Cricket Association President, Andrew Bryson confirmed earlier in the week that plans for the annual event are progressing along normal lines however organisers are carefully monitoring the rapidly changing health situation and will making adjustments where necessary.

The Warwick Australia day carnival continues to grow in popularity and 30 teams have registered for the 2022 event which will be played over two days.

Two new teams are set to join the competition this year. Scots College Past Students join the main competition while Greymare XI have nominated in the social competition.

Eighteen teams have nominated for the main competition and 12 teams will play in the social competition.

The major sponsor of the Carnival in 2022 is once again the Condamine Club and there is excellent prizemoney for the top teams in the competition. The winners will pocket $1000; second place $500 and third $250.

Teams from Warwick and Stanthorpe were in action on Sunday playing Mitchell Shield games.

At Slade Park, Warwick hosted Central Downs while Stanthorpe hosted Lockyer on the CF White Oval.

In Warwick, the visitors won the toss and sent the home side in to bat. Warwick made tough work of it early losing their top four batsmen Captain John Clearly steadied the ship scoring another half century before he was caught by the opposing captain James Sinclair for 52. Warwick were all out for 135 in the 40th over.

The score 7/115 midway through the 33rd over. Chaz Cheatley was the best of the visiting bowlers finishing with 3/20 including the important wicket of opener Mick Bourke (7).

In a thrilling finish Central chased down the required runs with a wicket to spare in the 45th over.

Central looked to be in trouble on a couple of occasions throughout the bat but managed to put together partnerships when it counted most. Rahul Suresh batted well for his 26 while down the order Mac Frizzell’s 22 was invaluable.

Warwick proved to be their own worst enemy with 38 extras giving the visitors a real leg up in the game. Steve Grogan bowled well for Warwick. He took four wickets from his 10 overs which included one maiden and conceded only 26 runs.

It was an exciting game that could have gone either way at any stage. Warwick put up a brave fight despite being down on troops due to Covid.

In Stanthorpe the home side sent Lockyer in to bat after winning the toss. The visitors were 4/38 after but s overs and looked to be in trouble. Captain Josh Raddatz batting in the middle order top scored with 28 as batting partners came and went with the bowlers clearly in control. Lockyer were dismissed for just 68 in the 27th over.

It was a good all-round bowling effort from the Stanthorpe bowlers however Lachie Pill was a standout finishing with 3/5 from five overs.

Stanthorpe were able to chase down the

required runs midway through the 13th over without the loss of a wicket.

Chris Perry (n/o 9) was content to watch from the other end as his opening partner Lachie Pill picked up where he left off with the ball scoring a fine half century and dominated the innings. His 50 not out coming off 43 deliveries and included four boundaries and two sixes and wrapped up a good weekend of cricket for the allrounder.

Stanthorpe sit at the top of the Mitchell Shield table with three rounds to play. On Sunday Warwick host Stanthorpe at Slade Oval and will be looking for their first win of the competition.

COMPREHENSIVE WINS AS CRICKET RETURNS Stanthorpe cricketers started off 2022 with two 40 over fixture games at the weekend. Souths and RSL went head to head at Sheehan Oval while on the CF White Wanderers played Valleys .

In the game on the CF White Turf, RSL won the toss and elected to bat. Opener Sam Scalia (1) was caught and bowled by Ned O’Reilly midway through the second over. With the score 1/5 it was not the start RSL were looking for. Despite losing a couple of wickets cheaply RSL posted a competitive total of 163.

Batting down the order Stephen Martin smacked 42 from 26 deliveries. Along with Martin, Matthew Rutley (35), Matt Paton (26) and Jye Wallis scored the bulk of the RSL runs.

Wickets were shared evenly among the Wanderers bowlers.

Wanderers run chase hit a hurdle early in the innings when both openers were dismissed cheaply. Filmer went for a duck after facing only eight deliveries and his opening partner Kye Rashleigh (3) was back in the clubhouse midway through the fourth over – the score 2/13 the clubhouse.

Barry Bulow and captain Brock Patti steadied the ship taking the score to 77 before Patti (27) was dismissed. Bulow and O’Reilly added only another three runs to the total before Bulow was bowled by Rutley. The score 4/87 in the 30th over and the batsmen were under pressure to score. Unfortunately, it was all downhill after Bulow’s dismissal. The remaining six batsman managing to add only another 11 runs. Wanderers were all out for 98 in the 36th over.

The Spin From page 33 The Valley’s bowlers had the upper hand throughout the game. Darcy Daddow had the Wanderers batsmen at sixes and sevens and finished with 4/3 from a three over spell that included one maiden. Sandro Stefanon also bowled economically picking up a pair and took two catches. Rutley was another who bowled well taking two wickets in a win for Valleys.

Souths took on RSL on Sheehan Oval and after winning the toss Souths sent RSL in.

It was a move that looked to have worked perfectly when RSL’s top three batsmen were dismissed cheaply. The score 3/33 after 12 overs.

With the fall of the important wicket of Sam Dowie (8) RSL captain Luke Brady joined his son Rohan at the wicket.

The pair combined well to take the score to 132 before Matt Burgess broke the partnership dismissing the Luke Brady for 42. It was Burgess’ third wicket having removed both openers earlier in the innings and there was more to come from the bowler. Just a few deliveries later he had the scalp of Rohan Brady out for 46.

RSL looked to be in a solid position at 5/133 in the 34th over with batting to come.

Burgess had five when he removed Becker for a duck only a couple of deliveries later with just one run added to the RSL total.

Tailenders Hines (7), Mackenzie (12) and Haynes did their best to add to the score and at the end of the 40 overs RSL had set Souths 161 runs to chase.

The standout performance from the South’s bowlers was undoubtedly Matt Burgess with his five-wicket haul.

Souths run chase got off to a flyer with an excellent opening stand of 86 between Sachepal Singh and Lachlan Pill before Singh was dismissed for 28 caught by Rohan Brady off a Nick Lawer delivery. Pill was giving the RSL bowlers plenty of headaches as he smacked them around the ground. There was a glimmer of hope for Valleys when Ben Staley (6) and Matt Burgess (0) had short stays at the wicket.

Danny Folkers joined Pill at the wicket with the score 3/93 in the 21st over. Pill continued to dominate the attack while Folkers added 25 from 55 balls.

South’s cruised to a comprehensive victory in the 35th over for the loss of only three wickets. Lachie Pill, the hero of the Souths innings.

In a fine batting display Pill remained 83 not out, off 90 deliveries in an innings that included six fours and seven sixes.

Nick Lawer (2) and Ryan Hines (1) were the only wicket takers for RSL .

It may have been only an afternoon of social bowls but there was no mucking about from the bowlers who all seemed to be in “game mode” after their break and games were tightly contested. There were some great bowls played and it seems no one has lost their touch over the break. Perhaps they were taking the opportunity to sharpen their tactics before the District Events and Carnivals get under way.

In the Two Bowl Triples game Rod Newlands, Michael Sweeney and Tony Schubert 18 scored a tight 18-16 win over opponents Carl Sutherland, Paul Zamprogno and Tyler Sweeney.

Casey O’Connor The recent rain certainly boosted the growth of grass around the course and greenkeeper Bill Pyne and his helpers are to be congratulated for getting the course in such great shape. There has been a lot of mowing going on as the fairways and surrounds slowly dry out.

There will be a few players hoping for better rounds after they holiday break. There is a time sheet on the board at the club for Saturday’s competition

MAINEY AND REDBACKS IN GREAT TOUCH

Warwick cricket fixtures sprang back to life last weekend with round 10 action.

The game between Redbacks and Wheatvale was played at Mayhew Oval.

Redbacks batted first and amassed an impressive 6/321 from their 40 overs. James Mainey scored his first century and notched up a personal best, top scoring with 112 not out. Steve Grogan (73) and Ryan Clarke (34) set a great platform with an excellent second wicket partnership before Grogan fell to Tom Doherty with the score 2/145 before Mainey plundered the attack. Thye Clarkson (24) and Jack Drewery (21) also added valuable runs while Mainey dominated.

Wheatvale had a mountain to climb chasing 321. Things did not begin well for their run chase when opener Lachie Boal was out for a duck. The score 1/0.

The game turned into the Doherty show when opener Riley was joined by Hayden.

The pair took the score to 40 before Hayden (20) was dismissed LBW to Clarkson. Only three more runs were added before Ryan (13) was out caught Clarkson off a ball from Hamilton. Tom Doherty made steady progress as batting partners came and went in quick succession. His was the last wicket to fall, caught and bowled Steve Grogan but not before he scored a well earned half century. Wheatvale all out in the 31st over for 135. Bowling honours shared between Matthew Hamilton and Riley Skerman who each took three wickets, but it was a very comfortable win to Redbacks. s

CROQUET PLAYERS HIT THE LAWN

VIC HILL COAST TO WIN

Members of the Warwick Croquet club were another group to return from their holiday break and enjoyed being back on the lawns playing the game they love.

Numbers for last Thursday’s Golf Croquet were quite good but are sure to grow over coming weeks.

Results of the games follow.

Lyn Treadwell and Sue Stanley Harris (7) v Helen Dooley and Julie Wilmotts (3) Marian Cirson and Meredith Thornton (7) v

Victoria Hill played Sovereign Animals at Slade Park on Saturday and got the points in a low scoring game.

Vic Hill won the toss and batted first. Opener Duff and Suresh put on 25 before Joe Wagner bowled Duff for 11. Tom Morris (18) and Rahul Suresh took the score to 67 before Suresh who top scored with 25 was dismissed. Middle order batsman Sandhu fell for 17 with the score at 5/105. The loss of his wicket triggered a batting collapse. Vic Hill were dismissed for 137 in

· ·

the 31st over. Harry Sipple, Marc Wagner and Baker each took two wickets for Sovereign.

In reply Sovereign were dismissed cheaply with only two batsmen, opener Mitch Hay (18) and Joe Wagner (11) making it to double figures.

Bowler Ahamed Muneer caused all sorts of problems for the Sovereign batsman taking five wickets while Sandhu bowled well to claim a pair as Sovereign crumbled to be all out for 69 in the 25th over.

A SPORTERS SUNDAY On Sunday Stanthorpe Sporters golf returned to the course for their weekly Sunday morning nine-hole event.

The first game of the New Year found with the group playing the back nine.

The mid-forties was a popular gross score for quite a few players, so the handicaps came into play.

In the end it was Angelo Maugeri who had the honour of scoring the first Sporters win in 2022 with a nett 23 after he nailed a few good putts. Runner up went with to a cut of the cards. John Rawlings edged out Dick Hilton who had to settle for the run down after both players returned nett 29.

Matt Waterworth had the best gross score of 40, a score that could easily have been lower had a couple of putts dropped instead of sitting on the edge of the cup.

There were two pin shots on offer but the only one claimed and that was at 12.

On Friday many will gather to farewell the man affectionately known by many as the “Roughest and Toughest,” Greg Howard.

Greg passed away quite suddenly after a long battle with cancer. His fight against the disease certainly was a tribute to that moniker he gave himself. Because it was certainly one tough battle and one which he handled well.

Not sure about the Roughest but I guess you could say Greg was a true diamond in the rough.

Greg was sport’s fan, a true Broncos believer and Maroon to the core. He was a solid Queenslander – if it was a Queensland side playing marbles, they had Greg’s undying support. Some of my keenest memories are of him as a cricket umpire and I certainly rate him. He took no prisoners out there in the middle and there was no arguing with Greg – Out was just that OUT. O your bike.

He was certainly an interesting character to meet up with at any watering hole after you had played a game of cricket in the hot sun, while he’d had a day socialising.

He was the mate everyone loved to socialise with.

Life was not always easy for Greg and wife Evelyn. Several years ago, they lost youngest son Clayton in a car accident, and it was a huge blow to them both and eldest son Grant.

So, on Friday after a graveside service in Stanthorpe Greg’s many mates and acquaintances will gather at O’Mara’s and recall their fondest memories of the “Roughest and Toughest.”

RIP Mate - Your Innings is done – well played.
