Excitement Builds as the 1770 Art Show Fast Approaches on 22 May

As the 1770 Art Show fast approaches, artists and locals alike are gearing up for a vibrant event. Springs Road will be alive on opening night, Thursday 22 May at 6:30 pm. The Quilters’ Exhibition opening is between 5:30 pm and 6:30 pm.

Full details: 1770arts.com.au A limited number of tickets are still available from the Bendigo Bank and the Information Centre. Secure yours early.

1770 Arts exhibition dates: 23 May to 31 May, and 9 am–1 pm on 1 June.

Our small-town art show is about more than just a place to showcase creativity—it is a community landmark.

The Art Show has woven itself into the fabric of the community, fostering connections and celebrating locals.

At the 1770 Art Show, we’ve seen firsthand how creativity can act as a bridge, connecting people. Opening night is a welcoming and relaxed space where locals gather, chatter, and talk about the creative works on display.

Our Discovery Coast region has many unique stories and perspectives that are celebrated through the Art Show. It spotlights local artists and

quilters, offering them a platform to share their talents with the community while putting its artistic and creative elements on show in the best possible way.

The 1770 Arts exhibition, the cultural heart of our area, has a simple goal: celebrate local creativity, bring people together, and make art visible to everyone. It is a great part of our history. It preserves and celebrates that history by telling the stories of our people, places, and the things we do and have done for decades.

Letter To The Editor - Jeffery Court Changes

I write on behalf of the Jeffery Court Action Group (JCAG) to make the wider Agnes Water community aware of serious concerns about a recently proposed change to Agnes Street that would result in all vehicles going to the main beach having to exit by going around Jeffery Court.

This change — which turns Agnes Street into a one-way street at the beach end — was not part of the court approved traffic design for the Agnes Street car park. It was not part of any community consultation process and contradicts Council’s own expert traffic evidence presented at Court that underpinned approval of the development.

Council’s expert traffic engineer's evidence noted that Jeffery Court is already highly congested and not wide enough to safely accommodate additional vehicle and pedestrian 6 | THE COASTAL RAG

interactions when cars are parked on the street. Furthermore it confirmed that one of the benefits of the new Agnes Street car park was to decrease traffic circulated around Jeffery Court.

The redirection not only contradicts what the community was led to expect, but has been proposed by Council post-approval, without community consultation or transparency.

The Jeffery Court Action Group contacted the Agnes Water Police who have confirmed in writing that there have been no recorded traffic incidents along Agnes Street. This raises the question: what risk is the proposed change trying to solve?

We have written to Council raising the above concerns and to stop the proposed one-way trafic change. They acknowledged the correspondence but after nearly one month no reply has

been received despite constant follow up.

This is not about opposing development as the Agnes Street car park is necessary — it’s about ensuring that planning decisions are sensible, transparent and reflect what was approved, in this case by Court.

Council’s proposal to force all cars visiting Agnes Water main beach to circulate around Jeffery Court in order to exit lacks common sense, transparency and will create a problem that currently doesn’t exist.

Sincerely - Ben Dunlop On behalf of the Jeffery Court Action Group Gladstone Regional Council responded to Jeffery Court Action Group’s 23 April letter on 8 May and intend to meet with them in the near future.

Owner and operator Neil Mergard shares with us that this milestone is something he is truly proud of, “When my Dad suggested in 1994 that we go to inspect an ex-military vessel that he found in the Trade-a-Boat magazine, I can tell you, I was excited to check it out. Yet I could never have imagined exactly what it has evolved into – this is literally my dream job, every day is different and exciting, and I really am so grateful.”

“We live in this amazing community, with spectacular nature all around us, so our LARC team have the opportunity to share and educate tens of thousands of guests onboard our

“Being in the Eco Tourism Australia Hall of Fame, we highlight all aspects of the environment during our commentary and love it when we see the difference this makes,” Neil said.

& the BUSTARD

In 1770, when James Cook and his crew first landed on these shores, they did what most 18th-century explorers did—shot the first thing they saw and ate it. That unlucky creature was a Bustard, and it was apparently so tasty that they named Bustard Bay after it.

Fast-forward 250 years, and the Australian Bustard (Ardeotis australis) is now listed as a vulnerable species in Queensland and endangered in New South Wales and faces ongoing threats from displacement.

Below - Double Larcs out at 1770.

Standing over a metre tall, these ground-dwelling birds strut about like they own the place. And in a way, they do! Their lineage stretches back tens of thousands of years, and they feature in the Dreaming stories of many First Nations peoples. They’re an enduring part of the story of this place from ancient songlines to colonial landings; the Bustard has stood witness.

Scan the QR Code for more information and to hear their booming mating call

According to local birder, Stephen Goldsworthy, they can be spotted around the Baffle Creek Bridge on Fingerboard Road, and out toward Mt Maria and Miriam Vale. In fact, Bustards can be found across Queensland on grassy plains and cattle-grazing pastures.

They can be quite hard to spot because they’re masters of camouflage and usually silent.

But if you hear one, you’ll never forget their booming roar, which sounds more like a lion’s roar than a bird. Scan the QR code to learn more and hear it.

As we gear up for this year’s 1770 Festival, keep your eyes and ears open. The Bustard is still very much a part of this place. If you see or hear one share it via “Agnes Water & 1770 Birders” Facebook group.

Crazy Stylez Riding Brings Freestyle Energy to the 1770 Festival Prepare to be amazed as Crazy Stylez Riding brings their high-energy Flatland BMX demonstrations and interactive workshops to the 1770 Festival this May!

Festivalgoers can catch the live demos on Saturday, 24 May 2025, and then jump on a bike themselves during Sunday’s all-day workshops on 25 May. Whether you’re a first-timer or an aspiring pro, this is your chance to learn the tricks of the trade from one of the best.

The workshop is completely free, open all day, and suitable for all ages and skill levels—no bookings required, just walk in and ride!

Crazy Stylez Riding is a Flatland BMX coaching program based right here in Agnes Water, created by longtime rider and coach Lee Kirkman, in partnership with Stylez Surf School.

While the vision and passion behind Crazy Stylez Riding is deeply personal to Lee, it proudly falls under the broader Stylez culture—a shared commitment to creativity, individuality, and lifestyle sports.

Flatland BMX is a freestyle discipline performed on flat ground, often described as “breakdancing on a bike”. It blends balance, flow, and bike control to create a unique and expressive riding style. For Lee, it’s more than a sport—it’s a form of selfexpression.

With over 30 years of competitive freestyle experience, Lee is driven by the freedom Flatland offers. “Everyone rides differently,” he says. “That’s what I love—freestyle means it’s yours.”

Now, through Crazy Stylez Riding, Lee invites everyone—young or old, beginner or advanced—to explore this exciting sport in a fun and welcoming environment.

So, come down to the 1770 Festival, watch Lee and the crew in action on Saturday, and get ready to ride like a pro on Sunday!

Bundaberg and Burnett Celebrate Investments in Community Groups • 20 local organisations will share over $533,000 in Grants

Burnett’s share of more than $16 million in grants as part of the recordsetting round.

• $16 million shared across QLD as part of the record-setting round.

• More than 2000 applications were received across the State.

20 local community organisations will share over $533,000 in the latest Gambling Community Benefit Fund (GCBF) round.

The Crisafulli Government has announced Bundaberg and the

Across Queensland, almost 630 community groups have been awarded grants of up to $35,000, to support a wide range of projects and initiatives.

The latest round delivers a welcome boost to the region, with funding helping to upgrade local facilities, support grassroots sporting clubs and provide essential services.

MIRIAM VALE SOLAR FARM AND BATTERY ENERGY STORAGE SYSTEM

Community Partnership Program Have your say …

More than 2000 applications were received across the State, which was the largest number in the program’s 31-year history.

Recipients across Bundaberg and the Burnett will share over $533,000 in funding, including $34,000 for Camp Gregory Veteran's Retreat, $32,010 for Red Collar Rescue, $28,291 for the Royal Flying Doctor Service Bundaberg Base and $35,000 for YMCA Bundaberg.

Local MP Stephen Bennett said the grants would help community organisations at a time when budgets have been stretched by cost-of-living increases.

“This program empowers local heroes across our region, and helps their organisations grow and thrive,” he said.

“Red Collar rescue will finally be able to purchase a tractor which will bring a welcome relief for the shelter."

“It’s been a challenging few weeks for Nerida and her team and I couldn’t be more thrilled to see the funds go towards such a deserving organisation."

“While here at the Y (YMCA Bundaberg), their tired courts will be undergoing a $35,000 upgrade to provide a safe and structured environment for our community."

“Agnes Water Surf Life Saving will purchase a trailer while the Queensland Country Women’s Associations in Childers and Miriam Vale will both be undertaking facility upgrades with $18,000 and $26,000 grants coming their way."

“These groups and clubs make up the fabric of our communities; it’s no stretch to say we’d be lost without them."

“I’m encouraging other local organisations to start preparing for the upcoming Super Round that opens in June and closes July 18.”

Private Energy Partners (PEP) is proposing to build a Solar Farm and Battery Energy Storage System (BESS) near Miriam Vale. As part of our planning, we are seeking ways to make tangible, long-lasting contributions to the local community through a Community Partnership Program. We will allocate $200,000 to the program annually.

Attorney-General and Minister for Justice and Minister for Integrity Deb Frecklington said the record-breaking interest in the latest round of the Gambling Community Benefit Fund demonstrated its importance to local communities.

“These grants are a huge benefit across Queensland’s towns, rural centres and cities, and they can be a lifeline for organisations that are doing it tough,” the Attorney-General said.

“You only need to look at the list of recipients in Round 122 to see the difference these grants make to the people and places that make our State strong.”

CEO of YMCA Bundaberg Greg McMahon said the courts will become a hub for sporting activities and social engagement, keeping young people of all ages connected to the community.

“The funds will mean that the court facility, originally built in 1973, will see a resurface and installation of shade sails to ensure the site remains accessible to all members of the community, from children and teens to adults and seniors,” said Mr McMahon.

“The enhanced court facility will continue to serve as a shared use venue for these groups and others, fostering social connections and a sense of belonging.

“At the heart of the Bundaberg region, the Y is committed to building a healthier, more inclusive, and connected community.”

Following the impacts of recent natural disasters, the upcoming GCBF Super Round (Round 124) has been rescheduled to ensure impacted organisations have the time and capacity to apply for funding.

Round 124 of the GCBF, offering grants of up to $100,000, will open 9 June and close 18 July 2025.

The simple fact is that you cannot rely on renewable energy alone. If Australia continues to go down the road of 82 per cent renewable energy by 2030 and achieving net zero emissions by 2050, I fear a repeat of the mass power outages that we have seen recently in Spain and Portugal which are countries that are both heavily reliant on renewable energy.

To kick the idea of nuclear power into the long grass for future Australians is an absolute tragedy. Nuclear power just like coal is among the most safe and reliable energy sources in the world. Nuclear energy is something Australia needs to consider for the future of business and industry in Australia.

There are many countries around the world increasing their nuclear capacity ISSUE 1268 |

GALA OPENING NIGHT

Captures the Heart of Agnes I’m sitting here dreaming on Agnes point.

I’m sitting here oh she makes me feel so doit.

The hills are green and oh so me.

The coral sea looks so clean.

But I know she can be real mean. To all extremes.

I’m sitting here thinking about what life brings.

I’m sitting here thinking about all those things.

I don't mind if you’re not like me.

But are you blind or can't you see.

The whole world is just one scene.

But it's to all extremes.

What you see is what you get.

Its not over until it's over yet.

Whats it takes for us to realise.

That what you see will disappear before our eyes.

I’m sitting here living and loving with Agnes.

I’m sitting here loving life all around us.

Once a beauty she will always be.

You found a friend she comforts me.

She’ll know what the future sees.

EXHIBITION OPENING TIMES Friday 23rd May - Saturday 31st May 9am - 4pm Sunday 1st June 9am - 12pm Agnes Water Community Centre & Hall

To all extremes. I wonder do we understand.

To share this beauty with our fellow [hu]man.

Aussies best kept secret is at hand.

Just ask Bruce... He’s one who’ll understand.
