The death of a motorcyclist Scott Rose (inset) at the intersection of Tweed Valley Way and Riverside Drive has prompted calls to increase safety at the intersection.

Brisbane Airport as he was preparing to board a flight to Hong Kong. NSW Police successfully applied for the extradition of the man back to NSW, where he was expected to face a range of charges including failing to stop at the scene, negligent driving occasioning death, dangerous driving, failing to give way, driving while his license was cancelled and refusing to disclose his identity. Tweed Police said Belcher was also charged with an outstanding warrant. Belcher was expected to front Tweed Heads Court on Wednesday, September 4, after he was refused bail. The motorcycle rider killed at the scene is believed to be 39-year-old Gold Coast Scott Rose. Meanwhile, The Weekly has since received several calls and online comments following the accident with many residents calling on authorities to address the “dangerous intersection” as a matter of urgency. “For at least the past seven years, maybe more, Tumbulgum community

have been begging for a reduced speed limit at the two intersections, north and south, into the village,” one comment said. “How many more people have to die before their cries are heard. “During this time we’ve seen the speed limit reduced to 80 at Chinderah because of a new service station. Where is the humanity?” Another comment said a Tumbulgum family were fearful of using the intersection. “Me and my whole family drive out of this intersection every day and it scares the hell out of me,” the comment said. “I’m always on extra high alert at this intersection. The cars come so fast. “Please someone do something about this.” Tweed Shire Council had installed a traffic dividing safety fence at Tumbulgum following a head-on crash in 2017, but residents remain concerned about the two intersections entering and exiting from Tweed Valley Way to Tumbulgum.

Council taking action on Bray Park Weir weeds

By Jo Kennett TWEED SHIRE Council says the Bray Park Weir will be flushed to remove an accumulation of weeds that have concerned some locals. The possibility of an algae bloom was put to bed by a council spokesperson who said they had taken some of the blocks off the weir on Tuesday, September 3, “to coincide with a moderate increase in release from the dam to try and flush some of the salvinia and azolla weed that has accumulated”. “The weeds are not affecting the town water supply but are unsightly,” the spokesperson said. “We are taking the opportunity to flush out what we can over the coming 10-12 hours of higher flow before we turn the flow out of the dam back off.”

Local Steven Gibbs recently photographed the Bray Park Weir on both sides (inset).

The blocks were installed as part of the Bray Park Weir Tidal Protection Program, implemented after the weir overtopped during very high tides in August 2017. “There is a continuing risk that Bray Park Weir, which supplies raw water for the Tweed Shire, may be overtopped by tidal saltwater during high tide and sea

level anomaly events for the foreseeable future,” the Council website says. “Council monitors this risk and acts to protect the weir when necessary by installing concrete blocks to narrow the weir and temporarily raise the water level in the weir pool. “The blocks are removed when the risk has passed.”

By Jonathon Howard A DISLODGED number plate may have been the key item that helped police identify and arrest 52-year-old Graham Belcher, who was allegedly behind the hit and run at Tumbulgum on Monday, September 2, that’s sent shock waves through the Northern Rivers. Tweed residents have since expressed their horror and concern highlighting what many are calling a “dangerous intersection”, with renewed calls to address the safety of the Riverside Drive and Tweed Valley Way intersection at Tumbulgum. Two motorcycle riders are believed to have collided with a 2019 blue Hyundai i30 that allegedly failed to give way at the intersection around 2.30pm. It is believed the motorcyclists were travelling north and the Hyundai has allegedly failed to giveway from Riverside Drive turning south onto Tweed Valley Way. The first motorcyclist is believed to have clipped the front of the car dislodging the vehicle’s number plate and the second rider has collided with the car, killing the rider. The first motorcyclist was taken to The Tweed Hospital, where is being treated for injuries. Meanwhile, the driver of the Hyundai, a 52-year-old British national, fled the scene of the accident and has later attempted to catch a flight back to England via Hong Kong at Brisbane International Airport. The man’s vehicle, which was a rental car, was found at Terranora on Tuesday, September 3, and police have seized the vehicle for examination. Police said a joint operation between Qld and NSW police as well as Border Force stopped the man at about 2am at

As soon as I saw smoke rising from Terragon I knew the fire was in our area and was ready to go when the pagers sounded. This was on Thursday, August 22. The fire escalated very quickly into a major incident and volunteer firefighters from many stations arrived with their trucks to help control the fire which was raging on many fronts. The changeover from day to night crews saw fresh volunteers take over. Many had come straight from work. As many of you will know, Kyogle Road was entirely closed at times due to smoke and danger from falling trees. Police escorted cars through in groups to ease the backlog. A major assault was undertaken on Thursday afternoon with the assistance of two helicopters water bombing the hot spots and a specially fitted out Boeing 737 plane which joined two small fixed-wing aircraft in the attack on the fire. The 737 Boeing plane used at the Terragon fire is a recent acquisition of the Rural Fire Service to use in situations like the Terragon fire. During the course of the week, I was twice able to take a flight in the helicopter to survey the fire front to see where the hot spots were. This was invaluable reconnaissance. RFS officer Mat Inwood and the Fire Investigation Officer were also on board and surveyed the situation. A bulldozer blazed a firebreak track on the southern slopes of Mt Misery. The helicopters continued dropping water until Monday. Several houses on the ridges were saved due to burning fire breaks around them. Huge trees on fire were dropping everywhere. Unfortunately one house was destroyed even though a break had been burned around it earlier. The fire appeared to be under control on Wednesday, August 28, due to the continued diligence of all the volunteers and a shower of rain. The fire burned down to the

I don’t support Tiny Homes

Tweed Shire Council has decided to get involved in the Tiny Homes Project and has allocated $100,000 to engage consultants to assist with the project. What a waste of ratepayers money. I p r e f a c e my r e m a r k s o n having been involved in caravan parks, management rights and manufactured home parks over a period of 30 years and I understand the plight of people as I have assisted many into accommodation which was affordable to them and they felt included into a community environment where they felt safe and comfortable. Normally when we look at a venture such as this, a desktop analysis is the first step of assessment which includes a business and management plan - in other words do the figures stack up and deliver achievable outcomes? It has been suggested by Cr Cooper that Tweed Shire Council fund the project and manage it. We would be looking at an additional one million dollars to come from within

Council’s existing budget before one sod of dirt is turned including DA approvals, rezoning approvals, construction drawings and architect drawings. If Council goes down this path the function of our core business which is roads, rates, rubbish, sports fields, potholes and parks will be severely affected as funds have to come from somewhere. I have done my own desktop study and Council will be required to seek funding of at least twenty million dollars plus. Do ratepayers of the Tweed want Council to pursue this Tiny Homes Project which is way outside Council’s capacity and ability to manage such a project. This is a responsibility of a state and federal government and free enterprise should be the carriage of such projects. I do not support Council being involved in this project at all. Warren Polglase OAM JP, Tweed Shire Councillor

What’s with the town clock?

Does anyone know who is responsible for ensuring that Murwillumbah’s town clock shows the correct time? For months the clock has been showing the wrong time and a such a clock is as useless as a two-bob watch. C h r i s t i a a n G o u d k a m p, Murwillumbah

High cost of returning trains

I refer to the recent letter Loss of a Great Asset, by Chris Lazenby (TVW, August 29). My research shows that when the XPT service was cancelled in 2004, by the Carr Labor government, the train was carrying only 400 passengers per week. The State Rail Authority was losing in excess of $8 million dollars per day, totalling $2.9 billion per year. This is a staggering sum. You could build six new hospitals or a dozen schools today with that sort of money. According to an article in the Northern Star, dated May 2017, the O’Farrell government commissioned a study to restore the line in 2013 The cost to bring this line to modern and safe standards was $900 million. Costs today to run a 100 seat service is approximately $8000 for a 30km trip. This is $80 per seat, if it runs at capacity. It is quite obvious that a business case to return the train does not stack up. The economies of scale

simply do not exist. If we brought the population of the Gold Coast south to Northern NSW then this may present a viable case to reopen the service. The new light rail in Sydney is a financial debacle with costs now double the estimated $1.5 billion dollars. The so-called solar train is a privately funded tourist novelty and the idea that it will be able to run a full-time commuter service is a fairy tale. Until such times that a rail service of some description is required, then at least with the Rail Trail, the route is preserved. If we turn our backs on the Rail Trail in the vain hope of catching a train to Byron to go to the beach or the markets, the corridor will fall further into disrepair and it may be lost forever. The issue of the rail corridor should be for preservation and the Rail Trail offers just that. Look at the long-term and the fact the corridor is preserved gives us the option to one day have a rail service returned when we can afford it. Bill Larkin, Murwillumbah

Ripping up rail nonsensical

Chris Lazenby is right (TVW, August 29), the cessation of rail services on the Casino to Murwillumbah rail line was a massive injustice committed against the Northern Rivers community. With over five million tourists this is the third most visited region in Australia after Sydney and Melbourne but we don’t have a train service. Spending untold millions of taxpayers money to destroy the line, which is valued at over $4 billion, to build a bike track, is compounding that injustice. Traffic coming over the border from Queensland has doubled in the last ten years and the projections are it will keep doubling, contributing massive amounts of carbon to the climate crisis. Our state politicians and Tweed councillors obviously have little concern for the survival of the planet or the transport needs of locals. They prefer to waste money on gimmicks for a few fit tourists. They ignore over 20,000 people who have signed petitions and at t e n d e d r a l l i e s s i n c e 2 0 0 3 demanding a train service from Casino to Murwillumbah, and for the rail connection be built to Coolangatta. We know it cost $1.6 million to repair three kilometers of line for the Byron Zero Emissions Solar train, not the $6 million per kilometer local National Party politicians have claimed. Byron Shire Council’s Arcadis Rail Study of the line has shown around thirty kilometers of line could be repaired for between $30 million and $64 million, or

between $1 million to $2 million per kilometer, depending what type of train service is provided. What’s even more disturbing is, once the legislation which protects the line is removed to allow the Rail Trail to be built, the valuable rail land can be sold off at any time. Time to stop wasting untold millions of taxpayers’ money ripping up a valuable rail line for a bike track (which could be built alongside the line for far less) for a few cyclists, and spend it instead getting the trains running for locals and over five million tourists who come by road get them onto trains and reduce our emissions at the same time. Louise Doran, Ocean Shores

Bureaucracy killing small towns

Years ago, one of the insurance company’s moves was to take away the pony club from the Banana Festival parade because a horse may bolt. I don’t know whether one did, I certainly haven’t heard of any. Now we may be faced by terrorists? How many small country towns are there in Australia? Are we being culturally destroyed by bureaucratic nonsense? What are the odds of such terrorism? I am prepared to take the risk for the sake of community. So sad where society is heading, communication by phone, not by heart. Greg Church, Nobbys Creek

Disappointed by report

I was really disappointed to see that you printed Cape Byron Power as a “local, family-run business” when they are in fact nothing even remotely close to that. I quote from this article by the ABC in November 2013, just after the plant was bought out of receivership: “Swiss-based company Capital Dynamics has purchased two of the country’s major renewable energy assets for an undisclosed sum”. “The managing director of Capital Dynamics’ Clean Energy Infrastructure team, David Scaysbrook, says they’ve had their eye on the plants for a year. “We have a history of taking over broken assets... we’ve done similar things in the UK in gas, coal and methane assets,” he said. “We are operational experts and we think we can add something to the resuscitation of the business.” Capital Dynamics is looking at operating the plants in the cane crush off season with other sources of biomass to fuel the plants and generate power.” Shaunti Kiehl, Byron Bay Please note the views on the letters page are that of the letter writer and not of the Tweed Valley Weekly.

Thanks from Kunghur Brigade

edge of the Clarrie Hall Dam on the eastern side and to Kyogle Road on the western side. During an incident like this there are many people to thank. Firstly I’d like to thank all the Kunghur crew who put their lives on hold, like all firies, to help control this fire. Also I must thank all the brigades from the Tweed Shire (9) and those from Byron Bay, Federal, Lennox Head, Main Arm, Mullumbimby, Newrybar, Wilsons Creek and Wardell who rallied to help over the week. The camaraderie was outstanding and we will help them when the call goes out. We couldn’t have survived without the organisational skills of Millie and Andrew and the auxiliary who kept the volunteers fed for the duration from the RFS catering trailer. They supplied hot breakfasts at the early morning changeover as well as lunch and dinner. Thanks also to the Dittmar family from the Mt Burrell Store, Louise at the Uki Pie Shop, Jon and Sharon at Sphinx Rock Café and Tracey for your donations of food and support. As you can see, we received tremendous support from many brigades and the community and we truly appreciate their support. I invite the community to join the Kunghur Brigade at our Open Day at the Kunghur Fire Shed on Sunday, September 15, between 10am and 3pm. Free sausage sizzle and face painting. Look over the trucks and talk about your Fire Plan to protect your property. Ron Duckworth, Captain of the Kunghur Rural Fire Brigade

Local fisherman calls out “ridiculous” reforms By Jo Kennett A TWEED professional fisherman has lashed out at the State Government fishing reforms, the last of which recently came into effect, labelling them “ridiculous”. Troy Jones has been ocean trap and line fishing for 25 years and his handcaught product is in demand with top local chefs. However, Mr Jones said it is hardly worth going to work since the reforms came into effect. “The quota allocation is so ridiculous compared to the recreational laws, that potentially allow recreational anglers to catch my entire annual quota each day, every day, and I’ve forked out $35,000 just for that endorsement,” he told The Weekly. “Even in my line fishing area, offshore trap and line, I hold three separate endorsements and each of those was reformed in a different way. “If I sold the quotas I was allocated, it would just pay for my yearly fees on the licence, but I had to pay $35,000 for the endorsement and then there are all the other expenses like the boat, fuel and gear to go and catch the fish. “An amateur fishing boat, with four people on board, could go out in one day and catch my entire year’s allocated quota.” Mr Jones said amateur fishermen were allowed to catch five deep water fish in one day. “They could go out easily and catch 200kg of blue-eye trevalla and stay within their limit and I have 220kg

allocated for the entire year with that species,” he said. “I have an 86kg quota of bass groper and I’ve caught one bass groper that weighs 80kg. “The bass groper average is 30kg. When I’m fishing I have no way of identifying what I’m targeting until I pull it up so once I get 30kg of the target I pretty well have to cease fishing but all these fish - the trevalla and the bass groper all live together so how do I know what I’m pulling up?” M r Jo n e s s a i d o n o n e o f t h e endorsements he was allocated quota based on his catch history. “That wasn’t good in some areas as I only fish part-time because I have a family to support and the fishing income is not enough for that,” he said. “The worst thing is that the reform h a s n’t b e n e f i t e d f i s h i n g s t o c k sustainability at all. “They have crucified local fishermen, run them out of business and created great hardship for those that have elected to stay and try to keep afloat and all for nothing. “Local retailers cannot access the product their customers want unless they import it, which no one wants to do as it is usually imported from unmanaged fisheries where disease is not controlled. That disease can destroy Australian fisheries.” Mr Jones compared the situation with NSW fishermen to NSW farmers and water allocations. “People that aren’t farming buy licences for water the way people bought shares that aren’t fishing and completely

Troy Jones says new fishing quotas are hurting professional fisherman

distorted the market and profited hugely from it,” he said. “A lot of share barons have worked themselves into committees and positions of authority. “In Qld and NSW there are a handful of big players making all the money while everyone else is going broke and getting out of the business, much the same as with the farmers and the water market that they opened up to anyone.” Tweed fishing representatives have previously warned that the reforms introduced by the NSW government had resulted in a loss of local product and many fishermen being forced out of business, while doing nothing to boost sustainability.

Fisheries won’t tolerate abuse and concealing illegal catch By Jo Kennett THE NSW Department of Primary Industries (NSWDPI) Director of Fisheries Compliance, Patrick Tully, said the department “will not hesitate to take people who threaten or abuse fisheries officers to court”. The warning follows a number of convictions of fishers “who have been unhappy after being caught doing the wrong thing around NSW”. One of the instances involved a Tweed Heads seafood shop manager “who verbally abused a fisheries officer at the premises”. The manager was convicted at Tweed Heads Local Court earlier this month for abusing the officer and failing to provide information, and was fined and ordered to pay the department’s professional costs totalling $7,080. “Trying to conceal illegal catch is pointless as fisheries officers have wide-ranging powers of search and seizure and they are very skilled at finding illegal catch,” Mr Tully said. The case is one of several involving commercial and recreational fishers. A NSW south coast commercial abalone diver was convicted and fined $4,000 at Bega Local Court this month for contravening his commercial fishing endorsement. “In another matter, a Sydney man was found in possession of 11 prohibited size Yellowtail Kingfish in an esky on the shoreline of Botany Bay,” Mr Tully said. “He was charged with exceeding the bag limit and possessing prohibited size fish. “The man was convicted of both offences and fined $4,400 in Sutherland Local Court recently and ordered to pay the department’s professional costs of $1,510.” Another man was fined $2,500 in Manly Local Court after fisheries officers found 25 prohibited sized Yellowtail Kingfish in waters offshore from Sydney Heads on Christmas Eve 2018. “The Court prohibited the man from engaging in all fishing activities for six months,” Mr Tully said. “If the man is found fishing in those six months a term of imprisonment would likely apply. The man was also required to pay the department’s professional cost of $1,210.”

By Jo Kennett QUEENSLAND POLICE are seeking assistance from the public in locating a man who may be in northern NSW and is wanted for questioning over a record drug seizure. Queensland Police are seeking the public’s assistance to help locate a man they believe may be able to assist with their investigation following the seizure of 766kg of MDMA powder in early August. Qld Police issued a bulletin stating Benjamin David Englefield (pictured) may be travelling in a grey VW Amarok with NSW registration DYL O6U (pictured below) and may be headed towards or currently in the Northern NSW area. The bust was the third largest ecstasy haul in Australian history with Qld Police saying the $90 million-dollar haul disrupted an international drug ring. The raid extended to New Zealand where $200 million of ice was seized in Auckland. Two UK citizens were

charged in New Zealand and two UK citizens were charged in relation to the bust in Qld. A Logan man was also charged over the drug haul, with raids from Qld to Ballina and Lennox Head, where a woman was arrested and charged in relation to $108,000 seized in the raids. Qld Police said the raid was the largest haul of MDMA in Qld’s history and the purest MDMA powder ever recorded by Queensland Health analysts. Police said at the time, the MDMA would have been cut down to make anywhere up to 12 million tablets with a conservative street value of $90 million. A number of vehicles, cash and other drugs were also seized during the raids. Crime agents in the UK worked with Australian and New Zealand police to disrupt the syndicate’s Pacific region operation. Anyone with information is asked to contact Policelink on 131 444 or Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000.

TWEED POLICE have worked with Qld Police to apprehend a 22-year-old man in a stolen vehicle after he failed to stop in the Southern Gold Coast and fled across the border to Northern NSW only to turn back to Qld. Police said it was 10.10pm on Friday, August 30, when the the Pacific Highway chase began. “At this time, the accused was being tracked by Qld Polair as he headed south from Queensland towards NSW. A short time later, police observed the vehicle crossing the border into NSW,” police said. A fully marked police vehicle pulled in behind the suspect vehicle with lights and warning devices in an attempt to stop the vehicle, but the driver was having none of it and continued travelling south, increasing his speed to 160km per hour in a 100km zone. A NSW unmarked police vehicle took up position behind the first police vehicle at this point and the vehicle continued south for several kilometres, failing to stop and weaving in and out of traffic before braking extremely harshly and crossing over the grassy area in between the north and south lanes of the highway. The suspect performed a U-turn in front of oncoming northbound traffic and then began travelling north on the highway. “The unmarked police vehicle took over the pursuit and with all lights and warning devices activated, continued to attempt to stop the vehicle,” police said.

“The accused increased his speed to approximately 160kph to 170kph in the signposted 100km zone and continued north. The pursuit was terminated as the accused crossed the border back into Queensland.” A short time later, the accused entered the Jellurgal Aboriginal Cultural Centre car park at Tallebudgera, where Qld Police were able to stop and arrest him. “The accused was arrested, and it was confirmed he had five outstanding warrants from Queensland and one from Western Australia,” police said. “The male was charged by Queensland Police for all related offences involving the stolen motor vehicle and police pursuit offences.”

Arrest over energy drink theft TWEED POLICE have charged a 36-year-old Banora Point man with a range of crimes including theft and resisting police on Friday, August 30. The man was alleged to have entered Coles Banora Point where a staff member said he stole two cans of Red Bull from the shelf. “The accused walked out the front door without making an attempt to pay for the items,” police said. “The witness, who is a store manager, is aware of the male due to several previous incidents. She was also aware that the male was issued a barring notice and was not allowed inside the store.” Police later attended the man’s home to speak with him where he became argumentative and demanded they give him tickets for the offences he committed.

“Police advised the male he would be charged, and bail conditions would be placed upon him to regulate his behaviour,” police said. But the situation only got worse for the man, who resisted police and was required to be handcuffed before being taken to Tweed Heads Police Station for charging. He is scheduled to appear before the Tweed Heads Local Court on Monday, September 23.

Man threatens hospital staff

TWEED POLICE have issued a firm statement that anti-social behaviour will not be tolerated at local hospitals following a nasty incident between a man and The Tweed Hospital staff on Thursday, August 29. It was about 8.34pm when Tweed Police were called to The Tweed Hospital after a man became aggressive towards staff. “The male was demanding a bed for the evening, however did not require any medical treatment,” police said. “Police attended and issued the male a move on direction not to be within The Tweed Hospital area for a period of six hours.” Police said they will “not tolerate any violent or aggressive behaviour towards our medical staff” at any of our hospitals in the Tweed-Byron District. “Police will take swift action against persons who think it is okay to threaten staff in our hospitals. They are there to provide an invaluable service to our community and deserve to do so in a safe environment,” police said.

2019 Community Building Partnership Program The Community Building Partnership Program awards grants for infrastructure projects that deliver positive social, environmental and recreational outcomes, while promoting community participation, inclusion and cohesion. This year, the Community Building Partnership program unlocks $27.9 million for community infrastructure projects across New South Wales with $300,000 allocated to each electorate. The program has awarded more than $300 million in funding to 13,800 community projects since it started in 2009. Applications are open from Monday September 2 and close at 5 pm, Friday September 27 2019. I urge our four local councils in the Lismore Electorate, as well as incorporated not-for-profit organisations such as charities, Parent and Citizens Associations and sporting, social or environmental groups to apply for a share of this funding. If your organisation or club needs extra funding for community infrastructure, such as playgrounds, accessible features, equipment or refurbishment, I encourage you to apply. Take the time to prepare your application so that your group puts forward a comprehensive submission to give you a good chance of success. Applicants should read the program guidelines to ensure their club or organisation and proposed project are eligible. For more information about the NSW Government’s 2019 Community Building Partnership Program, visit: www.nsw.gov.au/cbp Please do not hesitate to contact my office on (02) 6621 3624 for more information or to discuss your project. I look forward to working with you to make Tenterfield, Kyogle, Lismore, Murwillumbah, parts of Tweed Valley and local villages an even better place to live.

In brief ... Bus stop survey Do you catch a bus in the Tweed? If so, Council wants to know what you think about our bus stops and has published a short survey at www.yoursaytweed.com.au/ tweed-shire-bus-stop-survey to get your feedback. Council is responsible for bus stop infrastructure in the shire, while Transport NSW and bus companies are responsible for where and how often buses travel. Council can apply for government funding to improve its bus stops and is asking bus users to help identify and prioritise improvements needed across the shire. Anyone who wants to tell Council about a bus stop but does not have computer access can write to Bus Stop Survey, Tweed Shire Council, PO Box 816, Murwillumbah NSW 2484. The survey closes on Wednesday 16 October.

Charging in the right direction One of our local Pottsville koalas captured on the move between trees through our remote camera monitoring program.

Spotlight on some of our threatened species As part of National Threatened Species Day on Saturday 7 September, we are highlighting five species across the Tweed that need our attention.

Koalas

The Tweed Coast koala population is one of three endangered populations of koala in NSW. As part of Council’s commitment to protect these threatened species, more than 25,000 koala food trees have been planted since 2015. Spring is when koalas are on the move and mums have their joeys. Help protect them by keeping dogs on leads, drive with care and report sightings at www.tweed.nsw.gov.au/koalas

Albert’s lyrebird

Did you know there are lyrebirds in the Tweed? Despite being recognised as vulnerable to extinction, very little is known about Albert’s lyrebird in the Tweed region. Council has received funding through the NSW Saving our Species Program to increase lyrebird habitat, reduce threats to their survival and increase our knowledge of the population through surveys and citizen science.

Beach stone-curlews

Spring (and love) is in the air and our resident pair of beach stonecurlews from Hastings Point are getting ready to breed again. Their chick from the last breeding season is almost fully grown and still ‘at home’ with mum and dad. Council and volunteers are working on a plan to keep them safe for the upcoming season. Dogs are not permitted at the mouth of Cudgera Creek, Hastings Point, which should help these birds survive. There are plenty of places to walk your dog, see www.tweed.nsw.gov.au/WalkMyDog

Glossy black-cockatoos and Bush stone-curlews

Council has been awarded a grant by the NSW Environmental Trust to work on a project to conserve glossy black-cockatoo and bush stone-curlew populations. This project will focus conservation efforts on the Tweed Coast by managing known key threats, including habitat loss and disturbance, and predation (seeking out eggs and nests) and disturbance by domestic pets and feral animals. Visit www.tweed.nsw.gov.au/ CurlewCockatooConservation

Electric vehicles are emerging as an important way of reducing greenhouse gas emissions from transport fuels. Council has dedicated a parking space with access to a 10 amp ‘trickle’ charge at the Murwillumbah Civic Centre to encourage staff to consider an electric car. There are also power outlets at the South Murwillumbah depot for staff use. Council’s Program Leader – Sustainability Debbie Firestone said it’s a step in the right direction. “Council is trying to lead by example in the sustainability space and we hope this move encourages staff to consider purchasing an electric car as their next vehicle,” Ms Firestone said. Council’s Operations Coordinator – Plant and Materials Justen Oliver said Council is looking at ways to sustainably manage fleet assets by reducing costs and emissions while still meeting operational needs. “We are very impressed with the technological advances in EVs and optimistic that with further research, we could incorporate them into our light fleet and reduce our carbon footprint,” said Mr Oliver.

Tell us what you want at Fingal Foreshore Park Council is improving the quality of our parks and playgrounds across the Tweed. Thanks to a $107,000 grant from the NSW Government’s Everyone Can Play Program, the Fingal Foreshore Park at Fingal Head is set for an upgrade. Council will match this funding and partner with the local community to create a recreational space that is more inclusive for everyone. The final design of the new playspace will be determined by the outcome of community engagement activities and a Cultural Heritage Assessment of the area. The assessment will improve the understanding, identification and assessment of Aboriginal cultural heritage values within the site.

You’re invited to a Family Fun Day in the park on Saturday 14 September from 10am to 12pm to discuss your ideas and designs for the park, including the choice of play equipment. While you are there, you can also cast your vote on a community vision for the future of Fingal Head.

Upgrades for Murwillumbah to support business community

Construction of a new roof at Murwillumbah’s Cattle Saleyards is part of recent improvements to community infrastructure in Murwillumbah to support economic growth.

As part of Council’s ongoing investment in infrastructure to support economic growth, there have been improvements to some key community assets in Murwillumbah which will extend their life. The projects include: • a $120,000 upgrade to the Cattle Saleyards to support the farming industry • a $20,000 engineering project to support the Murwillumbah CCTV system to help prevent crime • draining profiling funded by the Drainage Union at the Murwillumbah Airfield to reduce flood damage. At the Cattle Saleyards, the original roof had rusted through and the yards were at risk of being shut. The new roof has thermal insulation and additional cross bracing. A new galvanised steel structure has replaced the old public, wooden grandstand which had rotted. The saleyards are leased long-term and these improvements have not been paid for by Tweed ratepayers.

Flood model on show South Murwillumbah residents and businesses are invited to the Canvas and Kettle Meeting Room at the Murwillumbah Civic Centre on Thursday 12 September 2019 from 4.30-6.30pm to learn some critically important lessons about flooding in the area. Council staff and flood simulation experts will host the drop-in session to help the community unpack the Draft South Murwillumbah Floodplain Risk Management Study and Plan, which is on exhibition for comment. At the drop-in session, consultant David Tetley from Catchment Simulations Solutions will present modelling of South Murwillumbah under flood conditions. “This flood modelling graphically illustrates the risk of flooding in South Murwillumbah, which every resident and business located in that area needs to be aware of and prepared for,” Manager Roads and Stormwater Danny Rose said. Representatives from the State Emergency Service will attend to provide advice on how to prepare for a flood. Feedback on the draft study can be made in writing to the General Manager, Tweed Shire Council, PO Box 816, Murwillumbah NSW 2484, online at www.yoursaytweed.com.au/FloodplainStudy or by email to tsc@tweed.nsw.gov.au by 2 October 2019.

After three years’ of research, planning and consultation, the Tweed River Estuary Management Plan is ready for comments from the public. The plan will set the focus for management of the Tweed River for 10 years, from 2020 – 2030. Council’s Waterways Program Leader Tom Alletson said the scenic waterway and its picturesque surrounds are used extensively for recreational and tourism activities and are extremely important to the local community. “Maintaining the environmental health of the river is essential to sustain its beneficial uses by the community. It can be difficult to find this balance, particularly in the face of population growth and rising sea levels,” he said. Mr Alletson said the plan proposes 90 separate actions that address threats to the estuary. “We are seeking feedback on how the plan could be improved to better manage the Tweed River, now and into the future,” he said. The plan is on public exhibition from 2 September to 31 October 2019. Two ‘community conversation’ sessions will be held on Thursday 19 September at 6pm at the Tweed Heads Civic and Cultural Centre and Wednesday 25 September at 6pm at the Murwillumbah Civic and Cultural Centre.

Doubt over future of Speed on Tweed

Teachers including head of mathematics Stephen Wemm, head teacher of humanities for LEAP Kylie Lenhardt and Deputy Principal Luke Bristow

Teachers breaking down walls

By Jonathon Howard MURWILLUMBAH HIGH School teachers have been literally breaking down walls in classrooms to create more inclusive learning environments with outstanding educational results that have even earnt the school a distinguished award. The results have been so strong through the school’s Learning through Engagement, Agency and Passion (LEAP) program, that the school received the prestigious Secretary’s School Achievement Award in Sydney on Tuesday, August 27. The award recognises NSW Public Schools that have successfully created a sustainable learning environment through a project such as this one. Head teacher of humanities for program LEAP, Kylie Lenhardt, said the program has been so successful that more classroom walls are expected to come down in future. “In 2017 we took a risk by changing the structures and pedagogy for our year seven classes,” Mrs Lenhardt said.

“We have now implemented the program into year eight, with the intension to go all the way through senior years.” Deputy Principal Luke Bristow said the program had been a success by breaking down the pre-existing learning processes. “We’re in teams now with a co-teaching format and having their content delivered by more than one teacher, and we’re getting results,” he said. “LEAP is the collaboration across the units to teach students how to learn.” Mrs Lenhardt said students were responding well to an active learning environment. “It’s been very well received and it means we could adopt the model in other senior year levels and continue the program,” she said. Schools receiving the award must have demonstrated significant improvement in learning outcomes and opportunities, excellence in student learning, maximising learning opportunities for all students as well as community leadership.

By Jonathon Howard THE FESTIVAL of Speed on Tweed is hanging on by a thread with the current committee deciding to cancel the long running raffle campaign and refund ticket holders this week, due to insufficient ticket sales and local community division over the running of the event. There are now renewed fears from the public that time is running out for the September 2020 event deadline. The committee is now fast tracking its annual general meeting (AGM) to Thursday, September 19, to determine the next step forward “The Speed on Tweed Committee has decided to cancel the raffle, refund all the ticket holders and call an Annual General Meeting (AGM) to decide if there is any future in trying to revive one of the Tweed’s most iconic events, with a new management committee,” a statement from the committee said. “Now is the time for community members and businesses in Murwillumbah to get behind the Speed on Tweed revival by supporting the election of a new management committee at the AGM. “Now is also the time for the community to unite behind the event, so it has a real chance to become a reality for 2020 and beyond. “Read the Tweed Valley Weekly next edition for all the details on the AGM, further details

on the raffle refund process, and how to support the event in the future.” The meeting is set to take place at Caldera Wildscapes Gallery above the Court House Hotel, to determine the composition of a new management committee, and to investigate how to take the event beyond planning and into an implementation phase with a new skills-based leadership team in place. While the committee has acknowledged there’s still “plenty of hurdles to overcome” each member has also expressed a passion to see the event return. Ideas have since been swirling around ways to cover the high costs associated with hosting and running the event and the committee says it remains committed to returning the Festival of Speed on Tweed to Murwillumbah. Sponsors have already also expressed a desire to see the event run, but the committee has admitted there’s some focus lacking in who’s leading the event with the 12-month countdown now on. “While a substantial amount of support has already been committed from local businesses, with several offering up large cash sponsorship packages, there’s growing concerns that the event could still be well short of the expected costs,” a committee spokesman said.

Disappointment over changes to Rural Land Strategy and said it should not be worded so as to have pre-determined outcomes, “yet the reference to 10-hectare minimum for secondary dwellings and 40-hectare minimum for dual occupancy detached dwellings sets a pre-determined outcome”. “After several public forums involving hundreds of community and rural sector members, the majority of people attending wanted Council to allow dual occupancy detached for all RU1 and RU2 holdings and yet Council is refusing their request,” Mr Simmons said. “TRSA and the community are requesting that Council gives the rural sector parity with the other five shires, which is not provided for in the Draft RLS - Ballina, Lismore and Tenterfield have no minimum lot size for dual occupancy detached and Byron plus Kyogle have a minimum lot size of 4,000 square metres.” Mr Simmons said the TRSA will appeal the motion with the Minister for Planning, if the motion is carried. “Given the lack of consultation and the Council resolution of March 21 not being followed through, TRSA believe that there are more than adequate grounds to appeal to the Minister for Planning to reject the policy should it be adopted at the Council meeting,” he said. “TRSA hopes that we can all work together to achieve a positive outcome for both the community and the rural land holders who are the ones that are most affected by the Rural Land Strategy.” The TRSA had also compiled a list of policies and action for

integration, which went further by calling for the amendment to read “regardless of lot size” instead of being limited to lot sizes that are 10 hectares and above. The Draft RLS has been recently updated and now includes the provision for detached dual occupancy on properties equal or greater than 40 hectares in areas zoned RU1 and RU2. The document also proposes to permit with consent secondary dwellings on properties equal or greater than 10 hectares in the RU1 and RU2 zones. The return of the detached dwelling amendment comes after years of discussion and debate around the Draft RLS with several associations. The landholder groups had battled to have the amendments reincluded and therefore fall in line with surrounding councils, where detached dwellings are permitted with conditions on RU1 and RU2zoned land. Many farmers had raised the need to include the amendments as a matter of urgency to allow families to live on the land longer and to create alternative revenue streams. Councillor Reece Byrnes told The Weekly he was eager to discuss the latest motion with fellow Councillors before making a decision. “I think any idea that supports farmers and their homes is a good one and the inclusion of the detached amendments is also in line with other councils,” he said. Mayor Katie Milne had removed the amendments and faced criticism after she expressed fears the strategy

could be used to drive a fresh wave of short-term holiday letting. The Weekly attempted to contact Mayor Milne for comment, but was unable to receive comment prior to the print deadline. Councillor Ron Cooper said many Tweed farmers are under financial stress. “Many traditional rural businesses are no longer profitable,” he said. “The maintenance of their properties has become a problem as they exercise their right to age in place. “These farmers need alternative revenue sources. “The easy option is to allow the land to be carved up as rural subdivisions. “That would forever wreck its future as efficient, productive land. “It would also degrade the rural character of the Tweed and would place our unique natural environment under pressure.” Cr Cooper said the current role for Council is to reach a compromise that will generate revenue for rural landholders and preserve the land’s productive capacity. “Relaxing secondary dwelling controls is a move in the right direction,” he said. “Council should also consider an information program on the tourism potential of rural land. “Farm-stays and cabins are a permissible development.” Cr Cooper said the Tweed is less vulnerable to drought than many other agricultural areas in Australia. “Climate change will disrupt food production world-wide,” he said.

“The Tweed will be more secure by maintaining a local food-producing capacity. “This is an inter-generational responsibility.” S e v e r a l g ro u p s h av e b e e n campaigning for the inclusion of the detached dwelling option, which many landholders believe will “allow families to age in place and/or provide essential resource for property maintenance”. T h e g ro u p s h ave t o l d T h e Weekly they had given “careful consideration” to create a longterm thriving shire with “multiple flow on benefits from these policies for the Tweed economy, villages, schools, rural communities, small business start-ups, housing, jobs, agritourism, agri-food and rural tourism accommodation”. The TRSA is also calling for existing areas within the RU1 zone with a current minimum lot size of 10 hectares are not changed to 40 hectares MLS and an independent study and review of the relevance of the 40 hectare minimum lot size on all other RU1 and RU2 land in the Tweed. YOUR THOUGHTS: Do you believe councillors should delay the Draft RLS until a broad section of the community can review the draft strategy? Or do you believe the amendments go far enough?

By Jonathon Howard MEMBERS OF the Tweed Rural Sustainability Alliance (TRSA) representing dozens of local landholders and other stakeholders have expressed their disappointment with the latest amendments to the Draft Rural Land Strategy (RLS), which is set to be voted on by Tweed Shire Councillors during tonight’s Council meeting (Thursday, September 5). TRSA president Michael Simmons is now calling on Councillors to vote against the latest Draft Rural Land Strategy “until the March 21 Tweed Shire Council resolution has been ratified in full”. Mr Simmons said the TRSA wants councillors to reject the current motion until “all points are resolved”, and he highlighted that during council’s March 21, resolution states that a project reference group from a broad section of the community be formed to review the draft strategy. “This has not occurred,” Mr Simmons said. “Council’s March 21 resolution also states that the process of review should be assisted by an independent facilitator, this has also not occurred as the independent facilitator assisted with a closed in-house council workshop with members of the community only getting approximately one hour with Council and the facilitator to view the decisions already made.” Mr Simmons said the TRSA also took issue with the latest Draft RLS

Mary Grant releases an injured seagull at Hastings Point and wildlife rescuers are searching for an injured pelican (inset)

Warning after spate of seabird injuries By Jo Kennett WILDLIFE RESCUE volunteers are struggling to rescue a number of birds caught in fishing tackle and are appealing to the public to take more precautions to prevent injuries. Mary Grant is a volunteer with Tweed Valley Wildlife Carers and Australian Seabird Rescue and has spent several days searching for a pelican wrapped in fishing line with hooks embedded in its feet, after a failed attempt to catch it at Hastings Point. “I caught this pelican two weeks ago in Pottsville estuary with fishing line wrapped around him, he has a number on his wing from last time,” Ms Grant said. “I caught him by hand and took him to Currumbin Wildlife Hospital to have an x-ray to make sure there were no fishing hooks internally. “They removed the tackle and I gave him an antibiotic and I released him in Pottsville. I wrote the release number on his wing.” Ms Grant said the pelican was swimming around “but the trouble with these younger birds is that they really enjoy getting fish from fishermen, whether it’s bait or whatever, they go up to the fishermen and ask for fish but they have no knowledge of fishing tackle, lines, casting out or hooks.” “This bird has an orange buoy on the fishing line and looks as if it’s swam through an area where someone has left a line out with a float on it,” she said. “Obviously it’s been looking for food and it’s swam through and the line has become entangled around his wings, his legs and he’s got hooks in his webbed feet. “He’s not in a very good way at the moment; he can hop around on one foot, but I don’t know whether he can fly.” A Pottsville man tried to help capture the pelican when it moved onto a sand bank on the west side of the bridge, but the attempt was unsuccessful. The injured bird has since disappeared.

Ms Grant said she comes down most days from her home in Tweed Heads South to search for, rescue and release injured birds along the Tweed Coast. “Hastings Point and Pottsville are hot spots because we have tourist parks and lots of tourists don’t understand the risks to the birds,” she said. “We’ve got an osprey up there (in the nest on Hastings Point bridge) with a line-entangled left foot. It’s all bunched up and it’s swollen. “We are unable to catch it and I think it has a chick in the nest. “I had another pelican here last week with a hook through its gular pouch, (the skin under its beak) but the bird has taken off and I can’t find him. “Now we have this little fellow and it’s his second hook in two weeks. This is a lot more severe than the first one. He’s got to be caught but it’s a waiting game now.” Ms Grant is asking the public to take care in local waterways. “Please collect plastic bags, bait bags, any discarded bags which are often ingested and kills turtles and birds,” she said. “Please don’t cast anywhere near foraging birds. Statistics indicate 90 per cent of all hookings are from people castings lines out. Wait until birds disperse as they aren’t aware of the danger. “Please collect and cut up discarded fishing line, put it in a bag and then in the bin. “Please don’t leave lines out with no one there to stop a bird being caught up or injured which can happen very quickly.” Fishing over rocks in estuaries can also endanger seabirds when fishing tackle snags and breaks off, with fishing over sand a better way to keep birds safe. If anyone sees any injured wildlife, or the pelican with a small orange buoy on his leg (please do not approach), contact Tweed Valley Wildlife Carers (TVWC) on 02 66724789. If you can’t contact TVWC, contact Australian Seabird Rescue (02 66862852). Currumbin Wildlife Hospital (07 5534 0813) also has contact details for TVWC.

Legacy Week launches with public appeal By Jonathon Howard TWEED RESIDENTS, dignitaries, war veterans and war widows gathered for the start of Legacy Week with a special service and lunch at the Murwillumbah Services Club on Monday, September 2. The event included a remembrance service and wreath laying by veterans, Member for Richmond Justine Elliot and Member for Lismore Janelle Saffin, as well as a prayer and performances from local students with around 80 people attending. For the families of those who are serving or have served in Australia’s defence force, it can be extremely difficult to cope with the injury or death of a loved one. Fortunately, big-hearted organisations such as Legacy are often the first there to help families pick up the pieces while supporting them into the future. Residents are asked to help Legacy to continue this vital work by donating to Legacy, purchasing a Legacy Week item or getting involved with their Legacy branch. Murwillumbah currently has 70 war widows in Legacy, all of whom have experienced the deep loss of a loved one during or after war. The Weekly spoke with two war widows, Sandra Jones and Beryl Lawther at the lunch, who have been supported by Legacy. Mrs Jones said she and her husband Peter had both enlisted in the Australian Air Force in the late 1960s. “Peter was flying bombers and he was also one of the first pilots in the famous Roulettes, which are the Royal Australian Air Force’s aerobatic display team,” she said. Mrs Jones said Peter passed away in 2018 from pancreatic cancer.

Veterans, dignitaries and residents gathered for the start of Legacy Week on Monday

“We had a lot of amazing times and memories together,” she said. “It was a great adventure and we saw a lot of the world.” Mrs Lawther was married to a seasoned solider, Eric (Butch) Lawther, who was so eager to join the war effort during World War II, he attempted to enlist at the age of 14. “He was very eager,” she said. “But his mother found out about it and pulled him out until he was old enough.” Sure enough, Butch was back to enlist at 17 and would spend the war fighting on the ground across Papua New Guinea. But one war was not enough for Butch, who would again enlist in the Korean War. “He made it through the Korean War as well,” Mrs Lawther said.

“He passed away in 2011 and I joined Legacy soon after.” Mrs Elliot said she wanted to encourage everyone in the Tweed Shire to support Legacy Week. “Legacy is a remarkable organisation that provides support to veterans’ families for those who have died or with health issues,” she said. “It’s so important that we recognise the sacrifice and service of our veterans and Legacy Week is a way we can all do that.” Member for Lismore Janelle Saffin said she wanted to acknowledge the “wonderful work” of Legacy. “I’d like to encourage residents to support the wonderful work of our Legacy associations,” she said.

Road repairs Overall Drive

TWEED SHIRE Council will begin a month of extensive roadworks to repair Overall Drive at South Pottsville and surrounding streets starting on Monday, September 16. Council’s Manager Roads and Stormwater Danny Rose said the works can now proceed following successful negotiations for the temporary relocation of a resident with serious health concerns. “To take full advantage of the relocation window, Council has brought forward a number of future planned works in South Pottsville for completion at the same time, provided the weather and resources allow,” he said. Mr Rose said roadwork crews are rostered on seven days a week from 7am to 5pm for the entire month. “This does not mean all sites will be occupied all the time but rather that one or more sites could be occupied at any time,” he said. The works include the removal and replacement of three mature trees along Overall Drive to allow heavy machinery access and due to root damage to infrastructure as well as: • The stabilisation and resealing of Overall Drive, from Charles Street to Buckingham Drive. • Asphalt reseal of two sections of Overall Drive, between Victoria Avenue and Edinburgh Court. • Bitumen resealing of Tweed Coast Road from the Mooball Creek bridge to Black Rocks bridge. • Asphalt rejuvenation of Mckenzie Avenue, Warne, O’Reilly, Miller and Kippax places, Taylor Drive and Trumper Place. There will be significant traffic disruption on Overall Drive for the entire month as stabilisation works to repair soft spots in the road will take two to three weeks to complete with several ‘curing’ periods in between. “The Pottsville community has been very patient over the past few years waiting for these much-needed roadworks to be undertaken, particularly on Overall Drive,” Mr Rose said. “While we’ll do what we can to limit the impact of these roadworks on the community, there is going to be significant disruption and inconvenience during this month.” “But, with good weather and understanding residents and motorists, we will get it done and not have to return to the area for many years to come.” The roadworks are expected to be completed by Sunday, October 13, 2019.

Laser therapy the most effective treatment

One of the biggest problems with the condition is negative self image, especially in our warm climate where toe nails are often on display. Traditional treatments such as topical and oral antifungals have been largely unsatisfactory due to low to moderate success rates and potentially serious side effects.

Kingscliff podiatry also treats all other conditions of the foot and use the latest technology to get the best results for our patients. These treatments include Laser therapy for soft tissue injuries such as Achilles Tendonitis, and 3D digitally scanned custom orthotics. We also supply orthotic friendly sandals and shoes as well as hyper – rockered shoes which act as a splint for many injuries.

Laser therapy (1064 nm) has been fully tested by medical research teams and it is considered safe, well tolerated by patients and very effective in promoting the growth of clear nails in patients with fungal nail disease. Research has shown that 3 Laser treatments can achieve an 81% rate of total resolution

If you think you may have fungal nail disease and would like to know more about Laser therapy, or are interested in any of the other services we provide have a look at our website w w w. kingscliffpodiatry.com.au or give us a call : 02 6674 2933 to book an initial appointment for diagnosis.

Fungi are all around us and given the right conditions i.e. warmth, moisture, low light levels, and a food source, they can multiply and flourish. Fungal infection of the nail plate and bed is more likely if the nails have been damaged by toe stubbing or ill fitting footwear. of the condition. Patients should see a significant improvement 12 weeks after initial treatment and the number of Laser treatments required will vary with the severity of the fungal infection.

Mr Canning, who has been involved with the music industry for more than 20 years working with such high profile acts as Missy Higgins and the Audreys, said he has been personally witnessed the effects of suicide within the industry. “The music industry can be really challenging for people in terms of mental health and wellbeing,” he said. “It’s such an issue for everyone but particularly in our industry where people can lose families, money and everything if they are in it for long enough. “I have had a few friends connected with the indsutry take their lives so I think it is really appropriate to use music to try and do something about it and help people.” The record label, which unlike many record labels is principally a philanthropic organisation, aims to address some of these challenges and to support its artists to become the best they can be. “We started up this year and we are funded and supported by Lindisfarne Anglican Grammar School and the whole premise of the label is to develop young artists and people who are interested in all aspects of the music industry,” Mr Canning said. “We have so far produced an album by two young exceptional singer/songwriters, Lindsay Nolan and Chelsea Valarie, but we have also been involved in community causes such as the anti-bullying day, R U OK and the recent Dungarimba Wandarahn installation by Craig Walsh that was inspired by Bundjalung Elder Aunty Irene Harrington. “The main goal of Germinate is giving back through music and we want to set up our artists to succeed and so they have a real understanding of the industry.” For information on the community choir event visit http://www.germinaterecords.com/ event/r-u-ok-event/ For information on how else you can get involved in R U OK Day visit www.ruok. org.au For support at any time of day or night, call Lifeline on 13 11 14.

Big-hearted local offers care packs to teens

Laser therapy is the latest and most effective treatment available for the treatment of fung al nail disease and is now available at Kingscliff Podiatry. We now treat fingernails as well as toenails.

Fungal nail disease can cause the nail plate to thicken and detach from the nail bed causing discolouration of the nail to white, yellow, brown or even black in colour.

By Megan Albany TWEED LOCALS are being asked to sing out three words that can help make a difference: "are you okay", as part of the national R U OK day, to help raise awareness around suicide prevention. As part of the campaign, which aims to bring people together to contribute to the national dialogue around this important mental health issue, locals are being asked to join a community choir event on Wednesday, September 11, from 6pm until 8pm at the M|Arts precinct. The choir, an initiative of Terranora independent record label Germinate Records, will be led by Vicky Jacobs from Melbourne’s highly successful Glee Club choir, and is open to the whole of the community, including those who consider themselves to be nonsingers. “It doesn’t matter if you’ve never sung before,” Director of Germinate Records, Brett Canning said. “You don’t even have to sing at all if you don’t want to, you can show up and show your support just by being there. “It will be a great fun singalong and we will be singing Don’t Dream It’s Over. “One of the label’s artists Lindsay Nolan will be singing the lead part and the rest of the community will be singing arranged and orchestrated vocal parts around her. “We feel really strongly about opening the discourse on mental health and wellbeing through this event.” With the latest research from the Australian Bureau of Statistics showing a 9.1 per cent increase in suicides since 2016, Mr Canning said it is important for the community to come together around this issue which most strongly impacts youth and was the leading cause of death among people aged 15 to 44 years. “It’s all about creating meaningful connections,” Mr Canning said. “We want to create a community culture that inspires and empowers individuals of all ages and all backgrounds to look out for each other, trust the signs, and feel that it is okay to speak up when they need to.”

By Megan Albany AFTER ONLY recently recovering from debilitating depression which started at the tender age of 13, teenager Trixie Meeves (pictured) turned her focus to helping others. The year ten student teamed up with Murwillumbah charity, It Takes a Town, to try to make a difference to young people suffering mental health issues. Now, at only 15 years of age she spends much of her spare time putting together CareKits for other teenagers suffering from depression and anxiety. “We have higher rates of mental health illnesses in areas like the Tweed than there has ever been before,” said Ms Meeves “I myself have been through it first hand, as have a lot of my close family and friends, so it’s an issue I hold very close to my heart. “When I made the CareKits I had in mind what I would have wanted someone to give me when I was in a low. “Each kit contains self care products and brochures and information so it’s a little beacon of light or hope for them. “It includes donated face masks, candles, socks, meditation tapes, an Epic Skate voucher, a massage ball, magazines, sunflower seed and tea, as tea is always good.” So far Ms Meeves has completed 40 kits with two different kits for boys and girls. “The first set of boxes was funded primarily by Carmen Stewart from It Takes a Town,” she said. “She teamed up with me and helped us to get the funding and donations. “Eventually we are hoping to put these in all the schools throughout the Tweed Shire and to also get other teenagers involved as our catch phrase is the kits are made by teenagers for teenagers. “I wanted other young people to get involved as I’ve always found that helping others when I don’t feel great makes me feel a lot better

about myself which is why I kick started this program. When I was down I had a very strong support network but not all people have that so the kit is to help remind young people they are not alone, and something like this little box might just give them that little bit of hope. “We are going into schools and talking to the counsellors and giving them the boxes and then they will distribute them to children and teens that they think need it.” Ms Meeves hopes her CareKits will give people the opportunity to take initiatives such as the national R U OK suicide awareness day on Thursday, September 12, one step further. “R U OK day is about educating people about mental illness but this box goes one step further as it’s about following up with people continually,” she said. “The message I would like to tell teens is hang in there, you are not alone, there are people here to help you.” In order to continue helping people and to reach her goal of distributing CareKits to every school in the Tweed, Ms Meeves is asking businesses and individuals to help with donations and time. Donations can be dropped off at Chozen in Murwillumbah. For more information visit the It Takes a Town Instagram page or call 0439 130 858. For support at any time of day or night, call Lifeline on 13 11 14.

TAFE students land dream animal lovers’ job By Jo Kennett FOUR KINGSCLIFF TAFE NSW graduates have landed their dream jobs working alongside koalas, meerkats, seals and bears at Currumbin Wildlife Sanctuary. TAFE NSW Kingscliff students studying a Certificate III in Captive Animals put their skills to the test with a weekly practical lesson at the sanctuary as part of their 12-month course. Paige Garton, Melissa Kooy, Melanie Halcoop and Megan Allen were all offered employment with the iconic Queensland sanctuary after graduating. Paige Garton has a position working as an Animal Trainer and Show Presenter and said she loves it. “I am 100 per cent working in my dream job. It’s the role I fantasised about when I was a kid,” Paige said. “I work with parrots, raptors, possums, rats, snakes and lizards. I do three to four animal shows on any given day.” Paige said her experience with TAFE NSW was “amazing”. “From day one when we met our teachers, who had a wealth of industry experience, we knew we were very lucky,” she said. “I was able to get hands-on experience through TAFE NSW which is vital when working towards a career with animals. “When I found out that Currumbin Wildlife Sanctuary had offered me the job I was in complete disbelief. “I’ve had the amazing experience of being able to train and learn through TAFE NSW at Currumbin with the animals and now I have been offered a job because of that training.” Currumbin Wildlife Sanctuary, General Manager of Human Resources and Volunteer Programs, Jane Jamieson said

Whales heading south with calves

people. “The program that TAFE NSW has with Currumbin Wildlife Sanctuary allowed me to explore a range of jobs in the animal care industry,” Megan said. “That’s how I discovered that I really enjoy sharing my love of animals with other people.” According to research by Seek, demand for Zookeepers will increase by 12.7 per cent over the next five years within NSW and Qld. The job satisfaction rate has been recorded by real Zookeepers as 100 per cent.

Right to farm legislation

They may have changed the brand name but the TW Realty Murwillumbah team are still offering the same great local service with Mark Chappell, Tina Evans and Wally Trankle

Local agency rebrands to TW Realty Murwillumbah By Jonathon Howard TWEED SHIRE residents would have noticed some recent changes at the former Professionals Murwillumbah real estate business, which has now rebranded as TW Realty Murwillumbah. After being dedicated Professionals for the past six years, Tina Evans and Wally Trankle have applied the finishing touches to the rebrand as an all new independent boutique real estate agency. Offering more than 60 years of combined local knowledge, Wally, Tina and Mark Chappell have an exceptional understanding of how people buy, sell and rent properties across the Northern Rivers. Wally and Tina told The Weekly that there was the desire to adopt a more personalised business model as opposed to being members of a large group, “which was popular in past years”. The real estate industry has undergone rapid change over the years with

advancements in technology, increased competition, outsourcing and digital disruption. “With continual industry reforms and the provision of superior levels of service, our focus is to restore consumer confidence in the real estate industry,” Wally said. T h e t e a m h ave b e e n wo rk i n g harmoniously together for the past four years. “Mark has enjoyed a career in sales for the past 25 years and within this time has enjoyed three years with Stockland being instrumental in establishing the Hundred Hills Estate in Murwillumbah,” Wally said. Wally and Tina were members of the Professionals Group for the past six years and prior to that enjoyed a short stint with a change in vocation in North Qld. Wally said he thoroughly enjoyed “Receipt & Dispatch” guiding planes in once landed at Whitsunday Airport and Tina was taking care of the body

corporate maintenance management for the common property at an 80-unit complex. Prior to this, Wally and Tina were proprietors of their first real estate business in Murwillumbah, as franchisee of a large well-known group from 2008 to 2011. “Our objective as an independent agency is to provide better value to our clients and customers,” Wally said. “Without the huge costs associated with brand names, we are able to offer greater promotion of seller’s properties through local media and the internet. “This combined with our passion to deliver exceptional customer service, we envisage maintaining a long and happy relationship with our clients and customers.” To find out more about TW Realty please phone: (02) 6672 7555 or visit the newly signed office at 7/47-59 Murwillumbah Street, Murwillumbah.

THE NSW State Government has recently introduced legislation to recognise a farmer’s right to farm. Mr Provest said the Right to Farm Bill was an election commitment by the NSW Liberals & Nationals and recognised for the very first time a farmer’s inherent right to farm, shielding them from nuisance claims. The Bill also introduces the toughest penalties in Australia for farm trespass, including up to three years jail and fines of up to $22,000. Currently there is no jail time for trespass. The proposed legislation also introduces new offences and aggravating factors for activities such as trespassing as a group, damaging property and releasing livestock. “The NSW Liberals & Nationals Government is committed to supporting our hard-working farmers and their families and it’s imperative we implement these additional measures,” Mr Provest said. “This important piece of legislation will create a clear deterrent to any would-be vigilantes considering unlawfully trespassing on farming properties as well as providing safeguards against nonsense nuisance claims.” Deputy Premier and Leader of the NSW Nationals John Barilaro said the Bill would help address the recent rise in farm invasions. “If you invade a farm in NSW you’ll face the toughest penalties in the nation and three years potential jail time,” Mr Barilaro said. Minister for Agriculture and Western NSW Adam Marshall said the Bill included new offences that exist in no other State or Territory. “Here in NSW, we back our farmers 100 per cent so it makes sense we have the toughest penalties for those who decide to wreak havoc on our primary producers,” Mr Marshall said. “This legislation will also go further by for the first time recognising a farmer’s inherent right to farm and providing protections for those facing costly legal action for simply going about their business. “If you’re farming legally and have done so for many years, you’re not going to cop a nuisance claim and potential legal action just because some folks from the city moved next door and decided they didn’t like the sound of your dairy cows.” The Bill comes on top of regulatory changes recently introduced under the Biosecurity Act 2015, which impose further offences and large financial penalties for farm trespass that breaches on-farm biosecurity plans.

“We’re selling raffle tickets on the night,” she said. Crystal Creek Public School has a rich history in the Tweed Valley having opened in 1895 after a lot of lobbying from local families. The school has played a huge role in becoming a community asset with a range of events and activities hosted by the school.

The school is also celebrating 125 years in 2020. This event is an alcohol and smoke free evening and children will need to be accompanied by an adult or carer. To find out more about Crystal Creek Public School, or to make a donation, please contact the school on (02) 6679 1223.

By Jonathon Howard MURWILLUMBAH FISHOS will host its final raffle at the Courthouse Hotel on Friday, September 13, with tickets going on sale from 5.30pm. The club had a longstanding history across the Tweed Shire ,having first formed in 1973, but had recently experienced a lack of fishing members resulting in the club’s closure. Murwillumbah Fishos President Barry King said although the club had received a lot of support from residents, members and businesses - “most members were not interested in fishing”. “We found the membership for fishing side of the club was getting very low, so we decided to close the club in June,” he said. “We still have some funds that were raised through our regular raffles and we’re planning on a final raffle to raise as much as we can for Wedgetail (Tweed Palliative Support).” Mr King said while it was sad to see the end of the club following decades of engagement and recreational fishing – “there simply was not enough interest”. “It’s such a shame as this was a great way to raise funds for local initiatives including Tweed Palliative Support,” he said. Mr King said he wanted to give a big “thank you” and acknowledgement to the hard work carried out by Mark Browning, who he said played a vital role in organising the raffles as well as the Fishos club. Mr King said he was hoping for a strong turnout at the final raffle with old and new members encouraged to attend. “We do feel there’s an opening for someone to run a regular raffle campaign to support local charities,” he said. Mr King said the group ran three raffles every month on Fridays, with only one Friday per month off. “We’re really hoping someone will take the reins and host their own raffles,” he said. Anyone wanting to find out more about the regular raffles is encouraged to contact Mr King on 0409 779 332 or the Court House Hotel on (02) 6672 1044.

By Jonathon Howard STUDENTS AND staff from Crystal Creek Public School are gearing up for the school’s first big outdoor movie night and they need the community to get behind the event on Friday, September 13. The school is calling on the community to join in the fun to help raise vital funds to assist in purchasing school equipment for the small school with a big heart. The school of 80 students, from kindergarten to year six, is inviting parents, fellow students and community members to enjoy the screening of Ralph Breaks the Internet (PG) from 6pm. Crystal Creek Public School P&C President Donna Bodley said the school’s first movie night was a chance to raise vital funds for the school and to bring the community together. “We are hoping for a lot of local and the wider community support to fundraise for school’s equipment including iPads for every student and new lunch tables,” Mrs Bodley said. “The students will also be selling raffle tickets on the day, with all our prizes donated from local businesses.” The Weekly visited the school on Monday, September 9, to find out more about the little school with a big heart and to meet with the school’s captains and vice captains. School captain Ruby Wright said she was excited about the event. “We would love for everyone to come down and support the school and enjoy our movie night,” she said. Fellow school captain Bree Hodges said the school was hoping for a big turnout.

Latest Spring bridal fashion

FOR THE more adventurous bride, there was a range of daring styles on the runway at Spring Bridal Week, held in New York earlier this year. Brides that dare to be different can chose from a variety of silhouettes including jumpsuits, short hemlines, puff sleeves, bridal trains and even wedding shorts. Renaissance style gowns featured heavily during Bridal Week, with several designers including Monique Lhuillier, Vera Wang and Alexander Grecco featuring this season’s trend of puff sleeves. The 70s is a big trend this season and this was seen on the bridal runway with Studio 54 inspired jumpsuits, and sleek satin gowns from Oscar de la Renta, Theia and Viktor & Rolf. The bridal train is a great trend for those brides that want to standout without going overboard or to really pack a punch, trains were combined with wedding shorts as seen at Mira Zwillinger’s runway show or a jumpsuit or short hemline by Oscar de la Renta.

Introducing the

Spirit of the Tweed Mr Simmons said he is delighted to announce the latest addition to the company fleet, which is fulfilling some Gold Coast charters, before arriving in the Tweed. “The latest vessel can accommodate up to 100 people in complete comfort to cruise down the Tweed River in style,” he said. “The new boat is a shallow draft trimaran and is going to be our new dedicated boat for the inbound market, corporate events, weddings and other group functions.

AFTER THE successful launch of the Spirit of Wollumbin Boat Tours in 2016, Mount Warning Tours continues to go from strength to strength and is now among the leading visitor experience operators in the Northern Rivers. Mount Warning Tours has always had a focus on the development of responsible and sustainable visitor experiences that blend local Tweed produce, environmental education, history and much more into a narrative of the Tweed. Passionate local owner and operator Michael Simmons has spent the past four years developing his business into a multi-faceted tourism business that’s flexible to the needs of locals and visitors. He’s also determined to continue growing the business and offering as many unique and exciting experiences possible. “We have grown the business into the go to operation for tourism packages in the Tweed Hinterland and working alongside other local operators through the Tweed Experiences Network has also strengthened the business and its commitment to all things local in the Tweed,” he said. Mr Simmons is preparing to launch his latest vessel onto the Tweed River under the soon to be renamed banner Spirit of the Tweed.

“ The Spirit of Wollumbin, our first flagship vessel, will still be available at a new Tweed Valley location, where we are planning regular tours while the Spirit of the Tweed will become our new Tweed River cruising boat and events vessel” Mr Simmons said he has been overwhelmed by the support for Mount Warning Tours, which began at its retail shopfront in South Murwillumbah. “It’s grown a lot in the past three years, and I’d like to thank everyone in the community who have experienced one of our tours and keep coming back,” he said. “We continue to find ways to capture the tourism market and present the incredible natural beauty that the Tweed Shire has to offer and with the Spirit of the Tweed, we’re hoping to continue that outstanding experience sought by visitors and locals alike.” Mr Simmons said the new Spirit of the Tweed is slightly bigger than the previous boat and offers complete touring comfort for guests. “It’s a great new addition,” he said. “It’s going to change the way we view and experience the river, just like the Spirit of Wollumbin did when it was unveiled at Tumbulgum in 2016. Mr Simmons said “Watch this space for some new expansion plans on the Tweed River in the near future”

Help support our nesting shorebirds to fend off extension

By Jo Kennett IT’S SHOREBIRD nesting season and the NSW Parks and Wildlife Service is asking the public to take greater care when using local beaches. The Tweed Coast is home to five beach-nesting species - the Australian Pied Oystercatcher, the Little Tern, the Sooty Oystercatcher, the Red-capped Plover and the Beach Stone-curlew. All our local birds are now close to extinction due to disturbances from watercraft, humans and their pets. Last year, with the help and hard work of Tweed Shire Council staff, Birdlife Northern Rivers, the National Parks and Wildlife Service and passionate locals, a Beach Stone-Curlew chick was successfully hatched in a busy public park at Hastings Point. With only nine mating pairs in NSW at the time it was a rare occurrence for the critically endangered species that drew bird experts from around Australia. Last spring three endangered Pied Oystercatcher chicks also hatched, two in the estuary at Hastings Point and another in the Tweed Broadwater, another important area for these birds. Cudgera Creek Estuary at Hastings Point is home to several species of beach-nesting birds and the estuary and beaches provide habitat for migratory shorebirds like the Eastern Curlew that come

from as far as Siberia and stop to rest and replenish their fat reserves for the trip home. If these birds are disturbed by animals or humans, they take flight, using critical stored fat reserves that might be the difference between them making that long migration home. According to Linda Brannian from Birdlife Australia Northern River, Hastings Point locals report seeing Pied Oystercatchers courting, “so the season has begun”. “Tweed Shire has updated maps for beach goers to help them choose the correct beach location for their dogs https://www.tweed. nsw.gov.au/WalkMyDog,” Ms Brannian said. “Expect new signs and a dedicated coastal ranger.” According to the NSW National Parks and Wildlife Service (NPWS) beach-nesting birds such as Beach Stone-curlews and Pied Oystercatchers are very vulnerable “to the effects of human pressures in and around their habitat, such as human activity on beaches; and also the threat that comes from domestic animals, such as dogs and cats; as well as predatory birds, foxes, reptiles; and even 4WDs at our beaches.” The NPWS advises there are a number of simple, but effective things people can do to help beach-nesting bird survival during the nesting season which runs from August to the end of summer:

CRAVING ALL

1. Learn to identify beach-nesting birds. If you are seeing them during the warmer months, it is likely that they are nesting nearby. 2. Read the signage as you enter the beach. These will tell you if there are birds nesting on your beach and how best to share the beach with them. 3. Give the birds some space. If you see the nesting birds, move away quickly. Staying at least 100 metres clear of a signed or fenced area where birds are nesting gives them a much greater chance of hatching and raising their chicks. 4. Beach-nesting birds’ nest on the dunes and the soft sand. Keep near the water’s edge if you are

t r e a G

jogging, walking, or cycling along the beach. 5. Keep your dog on the lead at all times and respect the boundaries in off-leash areas. Keep dogs right away from fenced-off nesting areas. Avoid taking dogs onto islands and remote beaches. 6. Collect and appropriately disposing of plastics like unused plastic bags, fishing line, fishing lures, plastic bottles and bottle caps. According to the Tweed Shire Council website beach-nesting birds see people and pets as threats to their nests and chicks and react defensively when you get too close. “If you remain too close to beach-nesting birds, they may try

driving you away by calling out loudly to get your attention and leading you away or pretending to have a broken wing to lure your attention away from a nest. “When adult birds are actively defending in these ways, they can’t protect eggs and chicks from the hot sun or other predators. “If beach-nesting birds alert you that you are too close, move away. When the adult stays off the eggs for more than 30 minutes, the embryo in the egg dies. If you see birds nesting on the beach and there is no signage or fencing protecting them from disturbance, please notify Tweed Shire Council on (02) 6670 2400 or 1300 292 872.

Mustangs to take on Ballina in NRRRL grand final showdown

By Jo Kennett FOUR TWEED teams have made different grades of the NRRRL grand final to be played this Sunday, September 8, at Ballina. The Mustangs powered through their first-grade semi-final against Casino to book a berth against Ballina. In reserve grade Tweed Coast Raiders play Casino after the Mustangs suffered a shock loss to the Cougars. Cudgen beat Casino to make the Under 18s grand final and the Tweed Coast Raiderettes easily took down Casino to get a chance to lift that trophy from Marist Brothers.

First grade report

THE MUSTANGS took on Casino at Murwillumbah on Sunday, September 1, and coach Nathan Jordan would have been stoked with his team’s 26-10 win, with Casino in front for much of the hard-fought battle. With great defence from both sides it was 20 minutes in before Casino broke through the Mustangs line, grinding it out to hold a 6-0 lead at half time. Casino scored early in the second half to take a 10-0 lead before a Bailey Crompton try put Mustangs on the board with 25 minutes to go. With the score locked at 10-10 after an Ethan Kane equaliser and 20 minutes to go, Casino coach/ captain Roy Bell was sent off for a late, high tackle and the whole show fell apart.

With ten to go the Mustangs got in front 16-10 for the first time off a Toby McIntosh try. Then Adam Walker sealed the deal with two tries in ten minutes taking it to 2610 and sending the boys straight to the grand final for the first time since their 2016 premiership. Coach Nathan Jordan said “it wasn’t pretty in places but a win’s a win”. “We have a few injuries out of the game on Sunday so we will reset on Tuesday and do a fair bit of work and see how they are,” Jordan said. “We have called in some of the reserve grade boys to attend training and will know more by Thursday on who will be in. “We have had three hard games, so they are pretty battered and bruised. Ballina are a very good team, but anything can happen on the day. “We have the NRRRL presentation and our club won NRRRL 2019 Club Champions and Liam Cusack got top try scorer. It’s a busy week but we will be ready for Ballina on Sunday.”

Ladies League Tag report

THE TWEED Coast Raiderettes have had a great season and the semi-final against Casino proved once again that minor premiers Marist Brothers will have their work cut out for them. Coach Trudi Carter has built the Raiderettes on their defence and it has worked, with the girls only conceding nine tries in their last 16 games and holding their opposition to nil in nine of those. Carter said they were up 12-0 at half time.

“With 10 minutes to go until half time we got a penalty goal and then two quick tries,” Carter said. “I told them to dig deep and defend as we could see Casino getting frustrated; one of their players was sin binned. “In the second half we just concentrated on defence and kept kicking up our end and they were tired.” The girls put on a clinic to win 32-0 and a spot in the big game against Marist Brothers. Chantel Thompson scored two tries and said, “every single person played their absolute guts out”. That’s what it takes to make it, so well done to the girls. Unfortunately, their celebration was short-lived. As they lined up to shake hands at the end of the game, one of the Casino players landed two punches on one of the Raiderettes girls, her only crime celebrating the Raiderettes tries as she faced her own supporters. The Tweed girls rushed to her defence. It was an ugly end to a great victory and in my books was unacceptable. The next day the player said she was feeling battered and bruised. For an innocent woman to be attacked like that is really traumatic and just not on. It’s a sad blight on a great game and Casino need to learn from this type of thing and see it never happens again.

Reserve grade report

MURWILLUMBAH WERE favourites going in against Casino at home, having sat on top of the ladder for the second half of their season while Casino languished outside the top five

The Mustangs celebrate their semi-finals win over Casino

before making a late run to qualify for the prelims. Murwillumbah had been laying down some massive numbers - 96 points in a recent game - and were looking unbeatable but Casino surprised everyone, leading 1412 going into half time, before grinding it out for a 26-24 win. It was a bitter pill for the Mustangs reggies to swallow but what a great year they have had, and you can guarantee they will be out to get in the big game next year. Casino will now meet Tweed Coast Raiders in the reserve grade final.

Under 18s report

IN THE Under 18s semi-final Cudgen were favourites going in, having finished the season in second spot to Byron Bay’s fifth place. They were the last Cudgen team standing and that was all the motivation they needed to secure a

grand final berth with a dominant 24-4 victory over the Devils. They are up against Ballina in the big game so good luck boys. Grand final schedule Grand final game start times with presentations between each grade: LLT: Marist Brothers v Tweed Coast Raiders kick off 9.45amplayers on field 9.40 for coin toss 18s: Ballina v Cudgen kick off 11.15am - players on field at 11.10am for coin toss Reserve grade: Tweed Coast v Casino, kick off 12.45pm, players on field 12.40pm for coin toss First Grade: Ballina v Murwillumbah, kick off 2.45pm players on field at 2.35pm for coin toss and National Anthem. Entry $12, under 16s free. It is going to be a brilliant day so join us at Ballina this Sunday and support our amazing Tweed teams who have busted their guts to make it to the big game. Grand final games are all on Sunday, September 8, at Kingsford Smith Park Ballina

Feeling Dizzy?

Tweed River Estuary Management Plan

You could have a balance or ves�bular disorder

The Tweed River Estuary Management Plan will provide recommendations for the future management of the Tweed River for 10 years, from 2020 to 2030.

BALANCE is easily taken for granted. However when the fragile ves�bular organs of the inner ear and brain are damaged by illness or injury, anyone can lose their ability to balance.

T

o achieve good physical balance, we rely on our brain, eyes, innerear, and musculoskeletal system to work in harmony.

Balance disorders are typically under diagnosed and undertreated. More than 1/3 of adults aged 40 years and older experience vestibular dysfunction at some point in their lives. Common symptoms of vestibular disorders include vertigo and dizziness. Vertigo is a spinning or whirling sensation, or an illusion of the self or world moving. Dizziness is a lightheaded, floating or rocking sensation. Poor balance, nausea, visual disturbances, headache, hearing loss, tinnitus, and pain or fullness in the ears can accompany vestibular disorders.

Council is seeking feedback on the plan, including suggestions of how the plan could be amended to improve management of the Tweed River, now and into the future.

Public exhibition The plan will be on public exhibition from 2 September to 31 October 2019. The community is invited to a ‘community conversation’ session to discuss the plan and river management. • Thursday 19 September, 6–8pm South Sea Islander Room, Tweed Heads Civic and Cultural Centre Cnr Brett St and Wharf St, Tweed Heads NSW 2485 • Wednesday 25 September, 6–8pm Canvas and Kettle Room, Murwillumbah Civic and Cultural Centre 10–14 Tumbulgum Road, Murwillumbah NSW 2484 These sessions will include a presentation, group discussion and Q & A session.

HOW CAN YOUR OSTEOPATH HELP? There are many causes of dizziness or vertigo. But most types of vestibular disorders can be diagnosed by means of a thorough medical history and clinical examination. The most common type of vertigo is Benign Paroxysmal Positional Vertigo (BPPV), and once diagnosed is easily treated with repositioning manoeuvres, with a success rate of 90%. (Silva, 2014). Another type of vertigo encountered is Cervicogenic Vertigo, which is due to a dysfunction in the neck. Again once diagnosed, it can be easily treated with Osteopathic intervention. Your Osteopath can diagnose most of the common types of vestibular disorders and can either treat the condition or refer on for further diagnosis and treatment. Dr Rudi Gerhardt B.Sc., D.O.

Off the beaten track in Azerbaijan JourknCoendyon s with Nic

SOMETIMES THE best way to see a country’s culture is to leave the city and visit a small village. We did this as part of our trip to Azerbaijan back in June this year. Our first stop after leaving Baku, the capital of Azerbaijan, was a family’s house in a small village called Shamakhi. We walked through the plain-looking two metre tall solid metal gate and into a beautiful courtyard where the family had some chickens running around and a lovely garden. This particular family still makes their own yogurt the traditional way. We sampled some plain yogurt before being treated to two local dishes - a cooked soup with yogurt, egg and coriander, and a cold drink with yogurt, water, dill and diced cucumber. Both were surprisingly delicious. We then changed to a smaller bus just before reaching some very narrow roads and arrived at a little place called Lahij (pronounced luggage). Lahij was a quaint little mountain village with cobblestone streets barely wide enough to fit a car down. Many of the people there were traditional craftsman blacksmiths, leather workers and weavers. Stores also sold spices and the traditional woolly Papakha hat. We immediately got the feeling this village had changed little over the years. We stayed with a local family who served up tea on arrival. Along with the tea, they served a snack - made from cherries and a lot like jam, except

this was not put on bread, this was eaten straight from small bowls with teaspoons. Definitely one for those with a sweet tooth. Dinner that night was at a local house owned by the maths teacher at the high school and his wife. His wife was an amazing cook. An ensemble of traditional dishes were served faster than we could eat them and we quickly ran out of space on our table. Freshly baked bread, chicken stew, various cheeses and the scrumptious Azeri version of dolmades. The teacher told us about his son who had been to university and was currently working as an engineer in Turkey. He hoped that one day his son would return to the village where he was saving him a plot of land to farm goats. On the final day, we crossed a suspension bridge - it was the quickest way to another small village. I had my reservations about it as I’m not great

with heights at the best of times and it took a while for me to talk myself into it. Things were made worse by the driver who thought it might be funny to stand in the middle of the bridge and rock it from side to side while everyone was trying to cross. Just frightening for me. For more information on this or to join me on my Indian adventure, please call me on 0422 930 458 or email nick@ journeyswithnick.com.

THE TWEED region has a rich and diverse calendar of events right throughout the year that celebrate our love of where we live, the seasons, our beautiful outdoors, music, food, sports and so much more. As locals, events ensure there is always something for us to do, and they also attract visitors from far and wide to feel part of the festivities. Importantly, our fantastic events reflect a strong community passion to work together to showcase our diverse region and people. In August this year we have had a great number of impactful events bringing visitors to the Tweed with notables including the SAE Group Australian Surf Championships, the AirAsia Juraki Surf Invitational, the Tour de Tweed cycling race and the Kingscliff Beach Bowls Club’s State Pennants, which itself brought approximately 600 bowlers to the area. The O’Heart Festival, hosted in Tyalgum, has been another recent event that is of enormous benefit to the region, including the attracting of State Government support. As we know, Tyalgum is a town that has events in its DNA and community spirit as well. It was incredibly sad to learn that, following the heights of the O’Heart Festival, fires had impacted the town directly. Assistance is possible via a GoFundMe page (Tyalgum Shops Fire Recovery) and Tweed Tourism Co (TTC) encourages our tourism industry to offer whatever support they can to help the affected businesses, which continue to operate remotely from the Marketta Gardens behind Flutterbies from Friday to Monday. One great way to do this is by getting along to the town’s next event, the longrunning Tyalgum Music Festival, held from Spetember 6 to 8. The event attracts some of Australia’s finest professional and emerging classical musicians to perform in the historic community hall. Also coming up in the hinterland is the Tweed Regional Gallery’s Annual Community Picnic & Artist Paint Out on September 15. It’s set to be a relaxed afternoon gathering with live music, art activities for kids and artists at work in the fresh air overlooking the stunning Tweed countryside. Exploring our hinterland events and villages will soon be given a boost with an upcoming TTC hinterland trails initiative, inviting visitors to take some time on their next Tweed region holiday to discover our country towns, landscapes, businesses and communities. We’ll be sharing details of this soon, via our industry newsletter and you can learn the latest about this project and other tourism initiatives by subscribing to ‘TTCnews’ via info@thetweed.com.au.

TWEED VALLEY BANANA FESTIVAL 2019 Thousands enjoy 2019 Banana Festival

AN ESTIMATED 2,500 p e o p l e h av e f l o c k e d to the Murwillumbah Showground to enjoy the historic 2019 Tweed Valley Banana Festival, which was presented by the Apex Club of Murwillumbah. The event has received some outstanding feedback despite a smaller than average Banana Festival Parade. But what the parade lacked the festival made up for with free carnival rides, music by Mangrove Jack Band the special Banana Queen

crowning ceremony and so much more. The 2019 Tweed Valley Banana Festival Queen is Kirralee Skennar. Miss Tweed Valley went to Kate Woodham, Miss Personality was awarded to Layla Dodds, the 2019 Banana King went to Subway Murwillumbah business owner Daniel Wise, the Teen Queen went to Jorja Smith, Senior Princess went to Hannah Watson, the Junior Princess crown went to Alyvia Rosser and the 2019 Prince went to Lewis Dodds.

The best dressed business window award went to The Austral Café, who like many local businesses embraced the spirit of the event. Apex will also be handing the festival over to a new committee during their annual general meeting on October 10 at the Murwillumbah Services Club from 6.30pm. Anyone wanting to take part in planning, staging and presenting the Banana Festival in 2020 is encourage to attend as all relevant board positions will be made available.

an awesome day of footy to finalise the year and then all roads lead to Ballina (again!) for the NRRRL Grand Finals on Sunday. Fair play to Ballina who have hosted six of the last seven and it’s a credit to their consistency. The Mustangs will get a chance to atone for the loss two weeks ago but Ballina will go in heavy favourites. Tweed Coast will be hard to beat in Reserve Grade although the classy Casino outfit could cause them some trouble. Ballina and Cudgen will fight it out in the 18’s and this will be a really close game. The two best teams by a long way in the Ladies League Tag in Marist Brothers and Tweed Coast will kick off what should be a great day of footy. See you at the Footy in Ballina. Quinny

the five games they scored more tries than their opponents in in 2019. It was a great turn out for Gallen on the weekend who has been a true warrior for the Sharks over an extended period of time. I’m looking forward to watch Adam O’Brien in action in 2020 for Newcastle. He is the next best coach in the NRL and has plied his trade with the two best teams, he is ready. The talk this week has heavily surrounded Paul McGregor at the Dragons and if he will remain at the helm in 2020, I’m not so sure he will considering the fade out again this year with the side he has. The local junior Grand Finals will be on at Tweed Coast Raiders Saturday which will be

THE FINAL round of the NRL is upon us and what an intriguing weekend it will be. All eyes and probably plenty of bums on seats will be at Leichardt Oval on Sunday with the Tigers taking on the Sharks with the winner gaining the last semi final spot and the loser kicking off Mad Monday. They could both sneak in if the Broncos get beat and the teams have a 90 minute draw but i’m thinking the Broncos will beat the Dogs and the last game of the season will be a beauty. I can’t see anyone outside the top 4 winning this year. The loss of Turbo Tom will make it very difficult for Manly to go deep and the top four sides just seem much more composed and clinical at this time of year. Interesting article on NRL.com this week about how the Sharks could have been top 4 if they had a goal kicker like Luke Covell playing for them. The ‘Cooler’ was one of the best in the business and finished his career with 1000 plus points, over a 150 NRL games and a test for New Zealand - and my goodness he could kick goals. I can honestly say I’ve never seen someone strike a ball so cleanly as Cov and his ability to turn four into six could have helped the Sharks win

By Megan Albany FOR A little village, the residents of Uki will tell you, the town packs a punch and to prove it they will once again be running the three-day Ukitopia festival. The festival, which this year will feature its own foodie fest, kicks off at 10am on Friday September 13, with an exhibition featuring over sixty local artists, followed by an opening night party from 6pm until 9pm in the Uki Hall featuring Nick Clow, Bernie Spiller and the Aetaomah Steiner School children’s choir. “The aim of our village celebration, which has been going for 11 years, is to come together as a community to enjoy festivities and to showcase our local talent,” Ukitopia Event Coordinator, Lisa Young said. “This year there is a focus on art, music and food and it will also feature the inaugural Uki food festival. “We wanted to focus on all things creative and we have so many creative foodies in this area. “Kerry Turner who has headed Tweed Foodie Fest for years is now bringing food fest to the village and there will also be a licensed bar in the village green.” On Saturday there will be a free yoga class at 8am after which kids will be entertained from 9am until 12pm. “The main focus for the kids is the magic theatre and imaginarium playground which will have very theatrical and creative workshops,” Mrs Young said.

“There will also be clay play with local potter Madeleine Murray as well as pony and unicorn rides from Little Pony Tales.” From 10am until 12pm on Saturday locals and visitors will be able to strut their stuff on the village stage in Uki’s Got Talent, after which eight local bands will take to the stage until 8pm entertaining crowds with a variety of jazz, blues, rock and acoustic music. On Saturday night, anyone with a sweet tooth will be able to indulge in the Uki Cafe dessert bar which will feature artwork by photographer Paula Peach. Uki locals will still be able to enjoy the regular Saturday Farmers Market which will be incorporated into the festival, as well as the Sunday Buttery Market. Ukitopia will wind-down with your choice of the Chillarium Laneway Party from 3pm until 5pm or an after party at the Mt Warning Hotel followed by the grand opening of the Silver Mill jewellery and art space upstairs in the Uki Buttery.

AN ELEPHANT SITTING STILL

Anna is a graduate of the Queensland Conservatorium of Music and has performed widely including as a member of the trio ensemble, Carisma, recording several CDs for the ABC. After interval, the orchestra will perform Respighi’s “Ancient Airs and Dances”, Suite 3. Though composed in 1934, Respighi has based the suite on Renaissance lute songs and pieces and a Baroque guitar piece. Piazzolla’s Fuga y Misterio will bring the concert to a close. The concerts are at 2.30pm at the Presbyterian Church 83 Nerang St Tamborine Mountain on Sunday, September 15, and at 2.30pm at St Peter’s Anglican Church 34 Main St, Southport. Tickets Trybooking on the GCCO website.

China is constantly at the front and center of the world’s attention now, and everything that comes from there, including cinema, is invested with political significance. Probably the clearest example of this in recent times is An Elephant Sitting Still, a movie that has generated a lot of discussion. Hailed by critics worldwide as a masterpiece of political cinema, An Elephant Sitting Still is the directorial debut of Hu Bo, a young writer who soon after completing the movie in 2017 tragically took his own life. He was only 29 years old. The story revolves around four troubled individuals living in a decrepit industrial town in northern China, where abuse, violence and shameless pursuit of self-interest dominate. Wei Bu is a schoolboy on the run after pushing his bullying schoolmate Yu Shuai down the stairs; Yu Shuai’s older brother Yu Cheng feels responsible for the suicide of a friend; Wei Bu’s classmate Huang Ling has run away from home and fallen in love with one of her teachers; Wang Jin is an older man whose daughter and son-in-law want to abandon him in a nursing home. While only occasionally crossing paths over the course of the film, the four all become obsessed with the idea of going to Manzhouli, a town rumored to have an elephant in the zoo that simply sits and ignores the world. The metaphor becomes progressively clear with each instance of cruelty, violence, and callousness that the four protagonists experience: it must be wonderful to be unbothered by the narrowness of existence and to be ignorant of your own damnation… Hu Bo was a student of the Hungarian director Béla Tarr and adapted his teacher’s elaborately staged long takes to create a world where despair is the prevalent mood. It is a very different image to that of a country mostly depicted in the media as confident and strong. In Australia the film has premiered at the Melbourne and Sydney film festivals and is now receiving a very limited release, with our town one of the few places where the film is going to get a screening.

By Megan Albany THE GOLD Coast Chamber Orchestra will once again take advantage of the impressive acoustics of St Peter’s Anglican Church in Southport as they prepare for their final concert in the 2019 series. The program combine works from the Baroque, Classical, Romantic, Twentieth Century and Contemporary periods and the 22 piece professional standard community ensemble will feature a variety of string orchestral works with several talented soloists, including pianist, organist and Musical Director of St Peter’s Anglican Church, Luke Sharp. “It’s a fantastic opportunity to perform in such a great venue with such a great orchestra,” said Mr Sharp. “The church dates back to the late 1800s but it was restored around the mid 1900s and the pipe organ was recently restored based on the original pipe organ but with greater capabilities. “We’ve got a very varied program with a bit of Bach, a bit of Mozart and Respighi, so I think it will be very accessible and beautiful listening for the audience.” The orchestra will open the concert with Mozart’s “Eine Kleine Nacht Musik”,followed by Bach’s equally popular Concerto for Piano and Strings in D minor with Mr Sharp as soloist.

TWEED REGIONAL Gallery Director Susi Muddiman is a self-confessed romantic who is set to put her love of love on show as curator of the gallery’s latest exhibition which is simply titled “Love” which will runs from Friday, September 6, to Sunday, November 17. “I don’t have any love in my life at the moment but I am still a bit of a romantic so you could consider the show a little bit self indulgent, as it is about all types of love,” Ms Muddiman said. “I’m really interested in how artists have explored all sorts of love whether that’s romantic, platonic, erotic, selfless love, lost love or even unrequited love and grief. “As I started to explore this theme I was really quite taken aback by the lack of artwork around that over the top, somersaulting, romantic side of love. “When I think about love and art, I go straight to France and the impressionists and courtly love or English romantic painters but on a contemporary angle it was quite illuminating to see there wasn’t much around. “A lot of the artists who are in love said they were inspired by the idea of this exhibition because it made them aware they were taking their own love for granted so after I heard that I thought to myself my work here is done,” she laughed. Over 30 contemporary Australian artists will be responding to the theme of love with new and existing works including Ben Quilty, Danie Mellor, Euan Macleod, Fiona Lowry, Guy Maestri, Joanna Braithwaite, Joshua Yeldham, Lucas Grogan, Maria Kontis, Michael Cook, Michael Zavros, Patricia Piccinini and Victoria Reichelt.

“There’s everything in there from swans who mate for life, to interpretations of love through embroidery as well as some hilarious modern messages with twists on social media and how easily things can be misinterpreted. “Michael Zavros often uses his children as his muses, so in this exhibition he has used his eldeset daughter Phoebe and is playing on the Greek Narcissus myth of seeing himself in his child, so Phoebe is wearing designer sunglasses and Michael is reflected in the lens. “Ben Quilty has included a couple of self portraits made at a time when he’d had major surgery and couldn’t paint, so he did what he could with one hand out of a love for the practice he was pining for.” However for those who are hoping to find love in the gallery, you may have to line-up behind the curator herself who admits she is still looking for love. “Wouldn’t it be a terrific story if I found love at the Love exhibition?” she said. “I do have a golden rule of no artists, other gallery directors are ok, but no artists.” Ms Muddiman did however promise The Weekly an exclusive interview if she was swept off her feet. “If I find someone it will be in the local papers, don’t you worry,” she laughed. The exhibition opens with the ‘Heart on Your Sleeve’ party on Friday, September 6, from 5pm to 8pm. As part of the love-in, the Friends of the Gallery will screen Baz Luhrmann’s classic film Strictly Ballroom at the Regent Cinema, Murwillumbah. Tickets are available online via: https:// trybooking.com/BEIRT

Outstanding talent for Music Fest “Tibetan classical music uses numercial notation so it’s a system of writing down the main pitch in a melody using numbers and there are no notes on the stave,” she said. “The notation is just a basic reminder of the melody as it’s an oral tradition so Tibetan classical musicians can remember things like a five day opera by memory and have this incredible capacity for remembering huge volumes of music. “Most of the time in western classical music we have the music with us. “Without the music you have to rely on listening and I think you tend to embody the music on a deeper level when you don’t have the music in front of you. “It’s also easier to communicate with your colleagues when you are not reading. “There is a beautiful, richly diverse musical tradition that comes out of Tibet and I find it endlessly fascinating and something I still have to learn a lot about.” Tickets cost $50 adults, $40 concession and $15 children and full time students.

AWARD WINNING cellist Katherine Philp grew up in Murwillumbah and is excited to be heading back to the Tweed for a performance with Tibetan Singer and Instrumentalist Tenzin Choegyal at the Tyalgum Music Festival this Saturday, September 7, from 7pm. “It’s really exciting to be coming back, as Northern NSW has this amazing culture of art and music so I’m really looking forward to it,” Ms Philps said. “Tenzin and I met through a mutual friend, he was looking for a cello player, so I joined in with a jam session and we’ve been friends and collaborators ever since. “I was then able to study at the Tibetan Institute of Performing Arts in Dharamsala, where I not only learned about Tibetan classical music but also about the situation for the refugee community who do a lot of cultural preservation work with their music, art, dance and cultural practices.” Despite being a classically trained cellist, Ms Philp said studying Tibetan classical music was a steep learning curve.

Feline fun at Cat Championships SOME OF the finest felines in Northern NSW and Southern Qld converged on the South Tweed Sports Club for the Championship Feline Show on Saturday, August 24. The popular feline show attracted more than 80 exhibits and included some of the rarest and cutest cats in the world. It was a tough ask for judges who assessed each cat for their characteristics, fur condition, overall look and feel as well as temperament. Tweed Shire Friends of the Pound volunteers had some deserving adoptees on display and available on the day. There were also displays with responsible pet ownership information run by Friends of the Pound. The event ran from 10am to 4pm. To f i n d m o re information please phone: (02) 6679 5401.

Tweed Valley Wildlife Carers reunite chick By Rachael Lebeter SPRING IS in the air and with the unseasonably warm weather, Tweed Valley Wildlife Carers (TVWC) is receiving many calls about baby birds. A young noisy miner (native) was recently found by residents on a busy road dangerously close to motorists. The residents sprang into action and rescued the bird from danger and then contacted TVWC. The TVWC carer who looked after the young miner said the people who found the bird were lovely. “It was boxed up with a soft towel, so warm and cosy. They had done a fantastic job,” the carer said. After a night in care, the young miner was reunited with its parents. It is a common myth that birds will reject their young if the chicks have been handled by humans. This is not the case. Often, parent birds will still recognise their chicks even after the young birds have spent multiple days in care. The TVWC member who reunited the noisy miners said as soon as the parents heard the baby, they started swooping me. “They were feeding it within five minutes of me putting it back in the tree,” the carer said. TVWC Bird Coordinator, Michelle Phillips, said the best place for young birds is with their parents. “We aim to rescue, rehabilitate and release. We can raise birds in care, but it takes a lot of resources,” she said. “Chicks require regular feeding and for small birds, like swallows, they may need to be fed as often as every 15 minutes.” The work doesn’t end when the bird has grown large enough to feed itself. Carers also have to teach the bird survival skills and introduce it to its native food, involving hours of foraging for blossoms, native fruits or insects. Michelle said if there is any possibility of a reunite, we will try. “It is a much better option for the birds,” she said. Baby birds can be found on the ground for several reasons.

Tweed Valley Weekly Locals Supporting Locals

Often, they accidentally fall out of the nest. They may also be fledglings, which are young birds just learning how to fly. If you find a baby bird that has feathers, leave it where it is unless it is obviously ill, injured or in danger. Observe the chick to see if its parents are still feeding it and call the TVWC 24-hour Hotline on (02) 66 724 789 for advice. Chicks that are being cared for by their parents may still need human assistance. The ground isn’t always a safe place and they may need help to move out of danger. The young miner on the road needed to be saved from being run over. If you can reach the nest, you may be able to put the chick back. If the nest is too high or unsafe, you can make a nest for the chick. Many birds are reunited each year in nests made of baskets or even ice cream containers with holes in the bottom and some nesting material. These make-shift nests should be placed safely in a tree with the chick inside and observed to ensure the parent birds are still attending. Fledglings are usually big enough to perch on a safe branch. Chicks without feathers are far more vulnerable than those with feathers. If you find a chick without feathers and there are no parents present, it needs to be picked up and kept warm. Call the Hotline on (02) 66 724 789 to find out if the chick can be safely reunited or needs to go into care.

Community Building Partnership Program open M E M B E R F O R Tw e e d Geoff Provest has announced applications are now open for the 2019 Community Building Partnership Program, unlocking $27.9 million for community infrastructure projects across NSW. Mr Provest said $300,000 is available for projects in each NSW electorate and is urging council and not-for-profit groups to apply for the funds they need to deliver projects with social, environmental and recreational outcomes. “Local sports clubs, charities, schools and museums are just some

of the groups that benefit from this program,” Mr Provest said. “If your organisation or club needs extra funding for infrastructure, such as playgrounds, accessible features, equipment or refurbishment, then I’d strongly encourage you to apply.” Applications are open from Monday, September 2, and close at 5pm, on Friday, September 27. Applicants must read the guidelines to ensure their club or organisation and proposed project are eligible. For more information visit: thewww.nsw.gov.au/cbp

Apply now for Community Road Safety Grants TWEED SHIRE community groups can now apply for up to $30,000 in Community Road Safety Grants to help drive down the State’s road toll Member for Tweed Geoff Provest said. Mr Provest said the Community Road Safety Grants program was a welcome boost for locally run campaigns. “The NSW Government is committed to driving the road toll toward zero, with motorists and riders playing an important role,” Mr Provest said. “We know one in three Australian drivers are more likely to undertake risky behaviour on rural roads because they believe they’re either less likely to get caught or perceive there to be fewer dangers. “The reality is regional NSW makes up just one-third of the population, however two-thirds of all fatalities occur on regional roads. “The Community Road Safety

Grants Program aims to support community groups to work within their local communities on initiatives to keep everyone safe on the road and I encourage community groups in the Tweed to get involved. “Local people know local issues. This program aims to bring people with a passion and commitment for road safety together and support their ideas to ultimately lower the NSW road toll.” Parliamentary Secretary for Regional Roads and Infrastructure Chris Gulaptis said road safety was everyone’s responsibility. “Two categories of grants are available: one for smaller projects with up to $5,000 available for each idea and another for more substantial projects, worth up to $30,000,” Mr Gulaptis said. Applications can be submitted until Sunday, September 15. More information can be found atwww. roadsafety.transport.nsw.gov.au/ aboutthecentre/communitygrants

I’m Free Don’t grieve for me, for now I’m free. I’m following the path God has laid, you see. I took His hand when I heard His call. I turned my back and left it all. I could not stay another day,

To laugh, to love, to work or play. Tasks left undone must stay that way, I found the peace at the close of day. If my parting has left a void, Then fi ll it with remembered joys.

A friendship shared, a laugh, a kiss, yes, these things I too will miss.

Good friends, good times, a loved one’s touch.

Be not burdened with times of sorrow. I wish you the sunshine of tomorrow. My life’s been full, I savored much,

Don’t lengthen it now with undue grief. Lift up your hearts, and peace to thee. God wanted me now, He set me free

Holding Shotwith Judy Tuckey to the next level. Clarence River District’s Yamba club was the selected neutral host club for the Region 1 final between Mid North Coast’s South West Rocks and Tweed Byron’s Condong ladies. Whilst the Condong team held their own for the first half of the game with a slender margin, their opposition then lifted to execute a breakaway, hold on well and claim their spot in the State finals later this year. September sure is going to be a full on month for bowlers. State Championships for the women are currently underway this week at South Tamworth with Pottsville

THE RECENT District Week-end Pennant play-offs for a berth at the Region 1 finals evolved into a great tussle between Cabarita Gold and Condong’s Crushettes. Condong ladies took the lead early but were overtaken by Cabarita on the 12th end. Later, after 15 ends of play in this 18 end event, the scorecard revealed the Crushettes to be 6 shots in the ‘red’. However, a valiant fight back resulted in the team collecting the shots required to bring about a draw to force an extra end. In a super extra end, the Condong team held on well to claim victory and go forward

and Kingscliff members contesting the Senior Fours, Open Pairs and Senior Pairs. Kris Lehfeldt and Marie Comerford will be contesting the Mixed Pairs on Saturday. State Men’s championships are on the calendar to follow on commencing 20th September – also at South Tamworth. Locally, the women’s Annual Inter District Challenge between Mid North Coast, Clarence River, Northern Rivers and tweed Byron District is scheduled to be conducted at Condong 19-20 September, and, Condong Men will be conducting their sponsored Open 2 Bowl Triples Carnival the following day, Saturday 21 September, with very attractive prize money on offer. See you on the greens. Good bowling everyone.

THE KIRRA Junior Teams Challenge has been getting bigger every year, and the Kirra Surfriders are keen to make it as big as the adult teams challenge which has been running for more than three decades. This year along with the Junior Challenge, the ladies team challenge will be its own separate event held over one day. The event runs from Friday, September 20 until the Sunday, with teams coming from as far south as Torquay, Victoria, to as far north as Noosa, Qld. It’s great to see the effort put in by the Kirra Surfriders Club, the oldest board riders club in Australia, tops to see them giving back to the sport putting on great events like this one. Also watch out for the Kingscliff and Cabarita teams, who have some great junior talent and will be a threat to the Queensland and Sydney Teams.

FROM THE SCARIEST WAVE RIDDEN BY MAN TO WAVE NOT SO SCAREY MADE BY MAN

If you hear screams coming from houses mid-morning last week, it wasn’t trouble it was everyone cheering on Owen Wright as he won the WSL event in Tahiti. Wright was superb

throughout the event, but Gabriel Medina was also looking the goods. It was great to see Wright grab his first win at Teaupoo, and now he sits in 8th place in the rankings, the highest placed Australian, and the only Aussie in the top 10. Julian Wilson and Ryan Callinan are the next Aussies both placed at 11th on the rankings behind Kelly Slater. Filipe Toledo holds the leaders yellow jersey, despite a poor showing in Tahiti. Followed by Jordy Smith, Kolohe Andino, and Gabriel Medina, the Freshwater Pro will be one event Toledo will need to make a winner if he wants a world title. From what I can see, he would not want to be relying on a result at the Pipeline Masters to get a world title. His performances at the Box in Western Australia and Tahiti shows his weakness in solid conditions. The surfers behind him, Medina in particular, has shown he has what it takes in any kind of surf. It is a pivotal event for the women as well, Stephanie Gilmore now back in 3rd place behind Sally Fitzgibbon in 2nd and Carissa Moore holding the leaders jersey. It is close and with Gilmore being the defending champion, it will be time for her to make a move towards that 8th World Title. The Freshwater Pro will be what

people call “the future” of surfing, wave pools in stadiums, something that was designed and predicted by the great Peter Drouyn back in the early 1980’s. The new wave pool in Yepoon is now looking the goods, with waves with 8 foot faces being produced by the “plunger”. I will be going to Agnes Waters for a surfing event at the end of the month, I would love to go for a little detour to go for a wave! I will let you know if I do. I wish!

Cudgen Headland SLSC - Keith Kennedy

AFTER MONTHS of speculation, Surf Life Saving Australia has finally confirmed that Iron X is not the future of the Professional Iron Man Series. A part win is how the Surf Life Saving community is describing the decision to rule out Iron X replacing the professional NutriGrain Series. The Iron X will still be held at Mooloolaba on January 27 but will not be part of the elite NutriGrain Series. It will include a stand-up paddle course and beach obstacle course. The Coolangatta Gold in

October will be included in the Nutri-Grain point score and the Gold winner will pocket $18,000 and the Iron X $25,000. The Club was well represented at the NSW Awards of Excellence last Saturday night in Sydney. Kaitlan Smith, who is the Manta Rays Captain that won the Club and FNC Branch Patrol Captain, won the State Patrol Captain and will go on to the National Award judging in November to be held on the Gold Coast. As a Nipper in the 2008-09 season she won the Branch and State Nipper of the Year. Club of the Year went to Umina,

which is on the Central Coast. The Coldies swim was in 18 degrees water last Sunday and was followed by a Father’s Day barbecue. Nearest to nominated time were Amanda Clarke (16), Ethan Alcorn (24) and Sam Patterson (35). This Saturday morning at 10.30am at the Kingscliff Community Hall, David Rae will launch his book, “The Concise Guide to Tweed History, The Tweed Coast and Hinterland”. Our Club has been able to assist with its own history “85 year” book providing Surf Life Saving and local history. Qualification round for the Nutri-Grain Iron Man and Woman series will be held next Saturday/Sunday at Coolum, Qld. Last week’s trivia: Hector Smith

Fun for all at Dragon Boats Bridge to Bridge race

by Linda Cash A FLOTILLA of dragon boats and their crews will hit the water at Murwillumbah this weekend when Mt Warning Dragon Boat Club holds its annual Bridge to Bridge event on Saturday, followed by a “Corporate Challenge” and a 200-metre sporting club racing on Sunday. Mt Warning Dragon Boat Club President Bruce Waight said the annual Bridge to Bridge 10km endurance event, which begins at the Riverview Hotel on Saturday at 1pm, has attracted crews from as far north as Maroochydoore and as far south as Grafton to compete for the coveted trophy. “The teams will race under the Murwillumbah bridge and the Condong bridge, providing spectacular viewing points from either of the bridges or Budd Park,” Bruce said. “The Riverview Hotel have generously sponsored our event this year and have also provided us with a $50 dinner voucher which will be raffled off on Saturday. “We encourage everyone to come along and enjoy the dragon boat spectacular from

At the helm

with Alison Blatcher

THE RACE day morning saw a chilly start and the Condong Sugar Mill chimney showed there was a good breeze but this was all set to change. The crowd started to roll up at Clarrie Purnell Park before 7am and the catering team kept the sailors well fed and ready for what started to look like a marathon race. The TVSC Safety boat crew - Reg Court, Garry Bargh and Richard Roberts had an early start at Fingal, launching the RIBS and heading off upstream to Condong. Roland Schwertner and Rick from Richmond River SC arrived early too, and the Murwillumbah Rowing club boat was also ready to go. We welcomed visitors from Oxley SC, Brisbane Sailing Squadron, RQYS (Manly) and the largest contingent from TSS (The Southport School) bringing 6 Pacers. All 27 boats were on the water, the starters at the ready and the breeze died to nothing. So, as the start horn sounded a burst of laughter went around the boats as they sat in the water not moving. This soon changed and the

the delightful Bistro deck of the Riverview Hotel, and stay to celebrate or commiserate with the teams as they come off the water.” On Sunday the dragon boat spectacular continues with Murwillumbah Rowing Club hosting the Corporate Challenge. This year the event has attracted teams from Lismore, Nimbin, Kingscliff, and the Murwillumbah and Pottsville Men’s Shed who have affectionately named themselves The Men’s Shed Toolies. The Mt Warning Dragon Boat Club and their sister club, Dragons Abreast Mount Warning, invite everyone to the delightful grassed lawns of the Murwillumbah Rowing Club to enjoy the racing. There will also be a BBQ, coffee and cake, and other delicious food available for purchase. Anne Bowden, President of Dragons Abreast Mount Warning invited the public to “come along and watch the spectacle as our community teams, with little or no paddling experience, compete against each other in what will be a fantastic fun-filled day, showcasing our sport, friendship, and team building in our community.”

Following the Corporate Challenge, sporting crews from NSW and QLD dragon boat clubs will compete in 200-metre sprint

races starting at 9am. Come along and join in the fun on our beautiful Tweed River.

An eventful day at Sailing Club’s 6th Tweed River Marathon

fleet moved off with the wind behind them, brightly coloured spinnakers were hauled up and they disappeared around the bend towards Tumbulgum. Three classes of boat were well represented this year – the 3 handed Corsairs (8 boats), 2 handed Pacers (6) and singlehanded Impulses (5). There were also 4 Lasers. In the Corsairs Alison Blatcher, skippering 683 Fairlight with crew Karen Vidler and Imogen Potts had an impressive lead for nearly half of the race but a couple of lulls in wind and river currents spinning them in a full circle at one point saw them start to lose the lead. Corsair 490 Keenas (Mark Reynolds, Marg Walgers and Craig Foley) crept up and flew past through the Stotts Island narrows never to be caught again. In the very last stretch of the race at Chinderah Corsair 396 Nimbus (Scott Jones and daughter Caitlyn) also overtook Fairlight and they fought to the finish line ending just 6 seconds in front of the early leader. The Pacers sailing without spinnakers were the slowest boats in the fleet but were still only a minute behind the last Corsair at the finish line. After 3 and a half hours of

sailing, 3 of the 6 Pacers still managed to finish only 1 second apart. Xavier Doer and Keely Whitaker from TSS took out 1st with TVSC members Igor Prado and junior Kynan Luecher, sailing a Pacer for the first time, coming in 2nd followed by TSS crew Monet Mooney and Jess Sabin. TVSC juniors Isaac Poulsen with Layla Scholz also sailed a Pacer for the first time. This was Isaac’s first time skippering in the Tumbulgum race – he was up with the 1st placed Pacer for much of the race and so should be very pleased. An unusual boat sailed by Mark Harper, a Devoti D zero, led the fleet for most of the way. Laser sailor John Pring on “Fig Jam” put in a heroic effort to keep up with him and hung on to be second across the line just over 3 hours after the start. The Lasers and the Impulses played cat and mouse all the way to the finish line – all of them excellent and very experienced sailors so after John crossed the next 3 were only seconds apart – Peter Fell (Impulse Mr Plow) then Mike Robinson (Impulse Plymouth) and TVSC’s Kate Yeomans (Laser Radial Bluey). TVSC’s Adam Hurt from Fingal took the 3rd place in the Impulses

Pacers at the line for a close finish

on Rosie, by far the oldest Impulse in the fleet. Commendations also go to the Dads celebrating early for Fathers Day. Jan Trueman and daughter Ruby from Chillingham sailing their Tasar for the very first time; Matthew Plummer and son Finley sailed one of TSS’s Pacers and David Robinson with son Hugh sailed their NS14. It was a cold race after the Tasar and the Pacer both went for a swim but they made it to the finish line and Ruby, Finley and Hugh will have many stories to tell their friends at school. Once the finish times were adjusted for the different boat speeds Peter Fell from Oxley SC

in Brisbane came out this year’s Tumbulgum Passage Champion and took home a voucher for a Husk Distillery Tour for two. Other great prizes donated by local businesses included Red Box Gym and Gold Coast Yoga monthly passes, vouchers for Cubby Bakehouse, Tyalgum Gelato, Watersports Guru and Tweed River seafoods so everyone went home happy. If you would like to be part of this great event next year – come and join us for the start of our summer season. Get involved in sailing or as part of our enthusiastic support team – we’d love to have you on board. www.tvsc.com.au
