TWEED SHIRE Councillors will meet tonight, Thursday July 7, to determine whether to approve the modification and installation of two waterslides at North Star Holiday Resort and Caravan Park at Hastings Point. The application has drawn a wide range of objections from neighbouring residents, as well as praise from several visitors frequenting the park. One resident, who preferred not to be named, said she lives near the North Star Holiday Resort and has been attempting to prevent the waterslide redevelopment from going ahead. “It’s been nothing but a headache for neighbours of the holiday park and one such concern I have is with the constant noise,” she said. “I’m not trying to be a kill joy, but there’s times during summer when the noise goes into the night, with very little intervention from management.” The resident said she hoped the application was rejected, but understood the nature of the bustling coast. “The coast is now open game for development, I get that, I may not like it but it’s here,” she said. “My only hope is that we consider some of the residents who moved here to avoid a Gold Coast style lifestyle, instead seeking some peace and quiet.” Meanwhile, several visitors spoke to The Weekly at Hastings Point and said the slides could be a whole new draw card. “It’s a great idea,” said Jake Parker from Sydney. “I bring the kids up here for a summer holiday and we’re even more likely to visit if there’s a new water park for the kids.” The application for the redevelopment of a waterslide playground, means if approved the removal of two existing waterslides and their replacement with longer enclosed slides with inbuilt slow down lanes. According to Council documents, the proposed slides are larger in scale, with the overall development having a maximum height of 9.5metres based on the submitted plans. “A minor extension of the swimming pool is also

proposed,” the council documents read. “The new slides will require an additional 14m3 of water storage for operational requirements. This water will be held in storage tanks below the slow down lanes of each slide and this water volume will not be accessed by swimmers. “The total area covered by the proposal is approximately 160 square metres.” The application advises that three palm trees within the pool enclosure are to be removed to facilitate the provision of this development. The proposed developmental is solely for the use of persons residing at the park and their guests. The facility is not permitted to be open to the general public and use of the structure is between 7am and 8pm daily, as an ancillary use to the established caravan park. The site is irregular in shape, with an area of 9.962 hectares and is relatively level. This proposed development is to be located to the north-east of the site, in close proximity to Tweed Coast Road which borders the site at this point and the existing service station on site. Council’s electronic records for the subject site display an extensive development history with various applications relating to the existing North Star Holiday Resort and Caravan Park. This includes applications for development such as replacement of existing BBQ shelter, works to amenities buildings and the erection of an activities room. It is also noted that there is some development history related to the service station, also located on this site. The application has been recommended for conditional approval by Tweed Shire Council staff with Councillors set to determine the final ruling tonight. HAVE YOUR SAY: Do you think the North Star Caravan Park should be allowed to go ahead with their new waterslides?

Whose democracy is this? Mr Turnbull’s version of democracy is bewildering. We must have a plebiscite at a cost of $160million on same sex marriage which still may get defeated in the parliament as Liberals ‘consult with their electorates’. Mr Howard I recall, unilaterally committed us to a fifteen year war that is still costing us billions without even consulting the people or having a vote incorporating both houses of parliament. Which do you think is the more important, declaring war or same sex marriage? Ray Armstrong Tweed Heads

Welcome back Mayor Milne, we missed you How fantastic that our Mayor Katie Milne has returned to the helm. While she was away we have had three politically aligned Councillors Polglase, Byrne and Youngblutt making decisions for the whole Tweed Shire. These Councillors have been so obsessed with power that they have ridden rough shod over residents. They seem to have lost sight that they were elected by the people to work for the people not to favour developers or to force their wishes onto a community. Now Katie is back she may be able to undo some of the harm done to the community but I agree with her we desperately need some new fresh faces in Council. Councillors Polgalse and Youngblutt have been there too long and it’s the strong Murwillumbah based National Party voters who see them returned. Residents in Murwillumbah and surrounds need to think that the Tweed is no longer a sleepy country area and seriously have a look at what

Tweed Valley Weekly Locals Supporting Locals

new candidates have to offer and not vote along a political line. It might work for State and Federal elections but Councillors should be voted for on their views on local issues. Look after yourself Katie and I hope you will be running in the next Council election. Stephanie Deane, Tweed Heads

Mayor placing obstacles in the way of progress Wow the Mayor is back. Have we missed her? I look at the decision last Thursday in relation to the Lot 156 Hastings Point decision and am totally baffled as to why the Mayor would vote to continue with the legal battle knowing that there is very little likelihood of Council winning. Her decision will cost Council and the ratepayers of the Tweed for legal costs that could have been avoided. Is the Mayor prepared to pay for these legal costs herself? No of course not, but she is happy to continue to place obstacles in the way of progress and common sense. Phil Kelly, Kingscliff

The Jack Evans Boat Harbour is not for sale? The development of the Jack Evans Boat Harbour (JEBH) and in particular the application by AquaSplash to install a fun park there, was passed (providing a letter of support) at the Tweed Shire Council on April 21, 2016 by National Party Cr’s Polglase, Cr Byrne and Cr Youngblutt with absolutely no consultation with the local community. Does this sound like a democratic process? Democracy, by definition means government by the people and not by just three Councillors who are completely out of touch with what the community wants. These three councillors were made aware of the community concerns about this project by hundreds of letters and emails as well as a petition of several hundred affected residents and still chose to ignore the community concerns. Does this sound like a democratic process? These same three councillors managed to tag a condition to the letter of support requesting that “other commercial proponents “be allowed to submit tenders for the development of water based activities on the JEBH: again with no community consultation. This tender document was released by Council last week so in effect the

JEBH is now up for sale. Does this sound like a democratic process? In a real democracy, council would have informed the public of its intention to develop the JEBH and then consulted with all the stakeholders so that it was aware of all the issues and concerns of residents before offering it for sale to the highest bidder. One can only hope that at the Council election in September that enough people realise that the democratic process is more important than any individual’s agenda. Richard Mason, Tweed Heads (Chair of Save Jack Evans Boat Harbour)

Message from Family First The Greens and Labor will reintroduce the Safe Schools program, imposing it upon our children’s innocent minds. They will push greater gender confusion, and morale-sapping ‘diversity’ targets within our Defence Force, and remove religious exemption from our Christian social institutions, stopping them from employing staff that hold similar social moral values. Family First recognises the importance of the Judeo-Christian foundations. They have made us a prosperous, caring, and generous nation. Unfortunately, there are many groups out there, like The Greens, that rubbish and undermine our history, and attempt to rewrite our story erasing the great things we have done. The values and cultural foundations of this nation are under threat if The Greens and Greens-aligned parties hold the balance of power in the Senate after the coming election. Family First will standup for the values that have made this country great. Phil Jobe, Senate Candidate Family First

My theory “hear me out” “The hole in the ozone layer is ‘healing (Press, 1 July). Was creation of the hole in the Ozone layer above Antarctica the result of three Nuclear explosions (27 August, 30 August and 9 September 1958) where it is reported the US exploded nuclear bombs above the German section of Antarctica (neu-swarbenland). Was this a continuation of Operation HighJump planned in 1946 was carried out in 1947 where under Rear Admiral

William Byrd the US had a number of ships and an aircraft carrier offload tanks machinery and men in Antarctica backed by aircraft for an invasion of the German territory on 3 February 1947 due to heavy losses of a destroyer, aircraft and machinery, it was cancelled on March 4, 1947. Admiral Byrd was quoted as saying the Germans had flying discs that attacked them with light-rays they had no defence against. G J May, Forestdale

Bully landlord runs amok Standover bully landlord I’m not sure where I start this from, and also it hasn’t ended yet. I have been renting since 2011, a property in a housing commune along with many other residences of 50 homes or so. Before I moved in here the owner made me some conditional promises, he would connect my sewer himself, he would waive my power connection fee, he promised that he would also upgrade the TV antennas old out of date system, that his staff would perform regular upkeep, mowing, drainage, potholes, etc. He hasn’t done this and I have paid hundreds of dollars myself. I’ve discussed this with him and he said that he would deduct it from my rent and it would reflect on my rent receipts. He didn’t. So I simply deducted it myself and continued paying rent from that calculated date there-after. He then served me with an eviction notice for non-payment of rent which the court quashed. He has been on a mission to evict me ever since. He has even gone to such an extreme as to send some men down to my home and smash my property up with eg: bricks, iron bar, axe, etc.. They were charged and convicted by Police but he cowardly denied any knowledge of. He showed his remorse by serving me with yet another eviction notice. The court squashed it again but still he has served me with even a third one. He harasses and torments me on a nearly daily basis, and gets his new yes man do his dirty work for him. He has threatened me and has used the foulest of language in front of my children. I have sought legal advice and they define his crimes as “Housing Discrimination” and “Racial Vilification”. Other residents are too petrified to speak out and ones that have are

left homeless. My case continues in a few weeks time, I just thought that you may be interested in following mine and others story. Intimidating standover bullies and power abusers like these need to be stopped. George Thomas, Tweed

Thanks for the coverage Congratulations and thanks to the Tweed Valley Weekly on its election coverage. All candidates received evenhanded coverage for their policies and ideas, including photo opportunities, whether they had an advertising budget or not. Congratulations also to all candidates for the good-natured way in which they conducted the campaign, unlike what’s been reported in other electorates. Justine of course will be pleased with her win; her campaign featured some of the best newspaper ads I’ve seen her produce. However, I did detect some nervousness this time around. The Greens are rightfully ecstatic about raising their primary vote to 21 per cent, a remarkable result given almost zero advertising budget which raises the question for another day what do the Greens do with all their public election funding. Angela Pollard of the Animal Justice Party got her message out there and collected a respectable 3 per cent of the vote. One Nation’s Mr. Smith picked up 6 per cent of the vote; achieving electoral funding and greatly assisting his party achieve a Senate spot. Russell Kilarney put in his usual solid performance. I know Mathew Fraser will be disappointed but he presented himself very well and ran as he said a clean campaign. Events that transpired were largely out of his control, although the hospital and health were flagged by the local media as the big issues even before the campaign began and it would have been better Mathew if you had been strong on this front right from the start, next time the campaign should avoid “jobs and growth”, a very “worn out” political platform that few voters relate to in Richmond, or believe any politician can deliver. Hope you will try again Matthew. Terry Sharples, Tweed Heads 72372

Council addresses bridge concerns Dungay local calls forum to discuss development plans for future site

TWEED SHIRE Council has sought to reassure Kingscliff residents that police and ambulance vehicles are able to use the pedestrian bridge to cross Cudgen Creek in the event of an emergency. The council message follows the closure and redevelopment of Kingscliff Bridge, with no end date set and at a cost of almost $4 million. Council closed Sutherland Street/ Casuarina Way at the old timber bridge last Monday, June 27, putting in place detours via Tweed Coast Road and Cudgen Creek and adding a further 11 minutes to the trip from Marine Parade, Kingscliff, to Casuarina Way, Salt Village. Council said all emergency services providers have been given keys for the roadside reserve gate north of the pedestrian bridge to local ambulances to use in an emergency. Council also has put in place after-hours procedures to open the gate if needed. Senior Engineer Construction Nigel Dobson said he would like to reassure residents of the procedures needed for emergency service vehicles to cross Cudgen Creek using the pedestrian bridge. “However, travel routes to emergencies are a matter for them to decide at the time of the incident,” Mr Dobson said in the council’s Tweed Link newsletter. Work to demolish the old bridge will begin in the next few weeks to allow construction of a new concrete bridge, with wider traffic lanes and compliant traffic barriers, to be tied into the existing pedestrian bridge. Currently, contractors are using the old timber bridge deck as a temporary work platform to predrill the creek bed below at the central concrete pylon of the new bridge. Council said after the existing timber bridge was demolished a temporary bridge will be constructed of sufficient

strength to allow the heavy piling rig access to the centre pylon. In demolishing the old timber bridge, council will inspect all the timbers and keep any that are suitable to repair the remaining 33 timber bridges in the shire or for use as temporary bridges during other bridge construction works. Some of the old timbers will also be made available for use in a public art installation at Kingscliff following completion of the Kingscliff Foreshore Redevelopment project. “There may be a few timbers condemned and destroyed as they are not suitable for reuse,” Mr Dobson said. YOUR SAY: How will the Kingscliff Bridge affect you and your commute? Send your letters and thoughts to editor@ theweekly.net.au

THE POTENTIAL for a large scale development in the heart of Dungay has attracted a range of critics and supporters since the story appeared in The Weekly last week. The issue has raised such a debate that one Dungay resident has decided to host an open forum for locals to express their concerns and share knowledge. The Weekly spoke to Dungay local Adele Williams on Monday who has called for the forum to take place at the Red Rattler (385 Tomewin Road) tonight (Thursday) July 7 from 6pm. Mrs Williams’ property would be directly impacted by the yet to be submitted development application to Tweed Shire Council, which is earmarked for Sanderson Place near Tomewin Road. The development could include up to 170 relocatable homes, plus 15 cabins on a 76-acre lot. It should be noted that the final plans have not yet been submitted to Tweed Shire Council. Mrs Williams said she wanted to call the forum to give locals a chance to discuss the matter. “We feel it’s important to gather as a community and share our thoughts, without those seeking benefits from the development and before engaging with the developer any further,” she said. Mrs Williams said she loves the Dungay area and wants to see the best course of action possible, but she also stressed she was not against the idea of developing the site. “We hope the community can unite to determine the best course of action to preserve the unique beauty that is Dungay,” she said.

“I’m not against the idea of development in Dungay, but I believe any development should be in line with the current landscape, amenities and aesthetics of this unique region.” Among the biggest concerns from Dungay locals include water usage, solar panels installed and the impact to neighbouring properties. Meanwhile, The Weekly put several questions to Wollumbin Common Trust project director Neville Fredericks including specifics about lot sizing. 1. Could you please specify whether the developer would consider less homes? The project requires at least the planned number of sites to justify the quality and extent of the common facilities, including the provision of services 2. Would the developer consider larger lots for each home as crowding seems to be a big concern? Legislation permits allotment sizes below half of what is planned for this project. Regulations also permit the dwelling and garage to occupy two thirds of each site. In this project this figure will be less than 50 per cent, allowing each home to have quality private open space. Retiring seniors are looking to downsize and have less maintenance. There are extensive areas of common open space within the project. Lot frontages will be 13.5 metres wide and with a single garage only. 3. What flexibility do you have around the design? The company has adopted a plan after extensive work with industry leaders. This project is setting a high standard for a land lease community.

THE LEGAL LIGHT! Airport concerns for Comm Games Why Herbert Payne deserves a statue At this election we should be erecting a statue of Herbert Payne out of gratitude for his single great contribution to Australia – but very few of us know who he was, or what he did. Ninety two years ago Herbert Payne was a little known conservative grazier and Nationalist Party Senator from Tasmania. He was a quiet man, but without him a large proportion of Australian society wouldn’t have a voice in the nation. Until 1924 people didn’t have to vote. Australia had already pioneered several aspects of democracy including compulsory enrolment for voting in 1912, universal adult suffrage, the secret ballot and popularly elected upper houses. Payne was shocked at the low voter turnout in the 1922 election of just 59 per cent. He thought parliament had to represent all the people, not just those who bothered to vote. On a slow winter day in 1924, Senator Payne made one of his rare speeches as he introduced his private bill, the Commonwealth Electoral Bill. Payne explained it made voting compulsory, as voting was both a right and a duty for all Australians. His Bill was barely noticed, and slipped through parliament in just a few hours. Nobody voted against it. From then on voting was compulsory. Turnout at the 1925 election was 95 per cent. Since then voting turnout in Australia has been the highest in the world. If we weren’t forced to vote under threat of fines it’s likely Australia’s turnout would be in line with the US where just 55 per cent bothered to vote in 2012. Turnout has been as low as 49 per cent. This means the next US President will be elected by just 30 per cent of adult Americans. In the UK, just 66 per cent voted in 2015.

GOLD COAST Airport Chief Operating Officer Marion Charlton says the company is “concerned” whether it will be able to deliver its instrument landing system before the Commonwealth Games 2018. Mrs Charlton caught up with The Weekly on Tuesday for a questions and answer session following reports the airport was in a holding pattern on its ILS due to court proceedings. 1. Firstly, could you please outline some of the reasons the ILS is being delayed? The construction works on the ILS have not commenced due to the appeal lodged with AAT. As part of that appeal an application for a stay of works has been lodged by parties disputing the ILS approval. No stay of works has been granted and a further hearing on that point will be scheduled in July/August after submissions are received from the applicants by the AAT. As a show of good faith the Gold Coast Airport will not proceed with works while we await the outcome of the next hearing. 2. How long can the delays persist before the airport is hindered towards meeting the Commonwealth Games requirements? Gold Coast Airport is concerned that a stay of works will impact its ability to deliver the ILS in time for the Commonwealth Games. 3. What is the concern regarding the chemicals used on the property to fight fires? Per- and poly-fluorinated alkyl substances (PFASs), also known as known as per- and poly-fluorinated chemicals (PFCs), is a generic term used to describe a wide array of fluorinated substances including PFOS and PFOA. PFASs and their derivatives are man-made chemicals and have been used in a wide range of industrial processes and consumer products, including some types of fire-fighting foams including those historically used by Airservices Australia. PFASs have been present in a wide range of everyday household products – so most people have had a level of exposure to PFASs. While management of PFASs is an emerging issue and the science as to the risks posed by PFASs is not settled, research has found that PFASs do not readily break down and are highly persistent in the environment. Federal government agencies have historically used firefighting foams containing PFCs at airports around the country including Gold Coast. We are working with Airservices Australia to manage this issue. With regard to ILS project, any PFASs issues identified will be managed in line with federal government guidelines and will not change the need or the eventual installation of the ILS. 4. How is this being assessed and changed to ensure

minimal impact to the surrounding flora and fauna? Management of PFASs presence on airport is being undertaken carefully and in line with the Guideline for Environmental Management (GEM) issued by the Federal Department of Infrastructure and Regional Development. The GEM issued by the department is in line with the National Environment Protection Measure (NEPM). The NEPM is based on a risk-management approach to remediate, contain or minimise. 5. Further to this, in relation to carriers, could you please outline any new carriers or flights that have been added to the Gold Coast Airport? Hong Kong Airlines extended their charter service to a year round service between Gold Coast – Hong Kong and AirAsia X commenced daily services between Gold Coast and Auckland in March. 6. Are there any new destinations to be added in the coming months? Further to this, what is your current employee number and do you anticipate a need for more employees towards 2017? Nothing to confirm at this point regarding new destinations. Gold Coast Airport is one of the largest employers in the region. Gold Coast Airport and parent company Queensland Airports Limited directly employ 142 people. At current Airport patronage and activity levels, the operations of the Gold Coast Airport contribute almost $550 million to the regional economy, and support 4,489 full time equivalent jobs. Through facilitation of tourism, the Airport supports over 14,700 full time jobs, representing 6.8 per cent of employment in the region. Project LIFT is expected to create more than 230 full-time jobs during construction and 180 direct full-time workers for ongoing operations once construction is complete. It is anticipated during the next five years we will see an increase of the direct employment to 3,463 jobs, of which 3,108 are full-time. 7. When can residents expect to see works commence on both the ILS and future terminals? ILS will be dependent on stay application and appeal with the Administrative Appeals Tribunal. Project LIFT (redevelopment) early works are now underway with building construction anticipated to have commenced by end of August. 8. Has the court proceedings added additional pressure on the Gold Coast Airport operations? The impact to a delay in the installation of the ILS will be evident in weather conditions delivering poor visibility for pilots. The ILS is designed to minimise diversions to other ports such as Brisbane in these conditions.

Maurie Stack OAM, chairman of Stacks Law Firm, has seen the consequences for societies with low voter turnout. “People who don’t vote when it is optional tend to be the poor, the uneducated and socially disadvantaged,” Mr Stack said.

The wider Tweed area has long had a problem with skin cancers

THE WIDER Tweed area has long had a problem with skin cancers, due to the severe UV index and the outdoor lifestyle that we all enjoy. There have also been skin cancer clinics that have come and gone in the area for many years, offering varying degrees and levels of service. Dr Glen Parker Principal Doctor at the Tweed Skin Cancer Clinic, a Clinic which has been operating in Tweed Heads for close to 20 years, has noticed a worrying trend in the last year or two. We often see patients who have been to other clinics for a check, and come to our clinic because they are worried that they weren’t checked properly, or that the spots that they were worried about weren’t picked up. This has been a constant in our clinic since we opened. There are some cases of missed skin cancers and melanomas that have been extremely worrying. We have seen cancers that were treated incorrectly, time and time again, until they had grown to be very large. We have seen obvious melanomas that were missed, and required complicated surgery, or that were too far advanced where nothing could be done. This wasn’t just in the elderly age group, but in patients in their 40s and 50s as well. More recently Dr Parker has noticed another worrying trend. We now see patients who have recently been checked, and sometimes ten or more skin cancers have been missed at that check up altogether. These patients have been to see Doctors who work in skin cancer clinics that pop up alongside General Practices,

and they claim to be experts at finding and treating skin cancer and melanoma because they have done one or two or three GP skin cancer courses at the Skin Cancer College. These skin cancers are sometimes very large. It is very concerning that even with these courses under their belt, they can still miss so many, says Dr Parker. It just shows how difficult some of these skin cancers can be to find. Sometimes they are virtually invisible and yet still very large. One of the most difficult skills to obtain in this field is actually be able to find the skin cancers in the first place. It all depends who you received your training from. Dr Parker originally trained at the Sydney Melanoma Unit at RPA Hospital, with the worlds best skin cancer and melanoma specialists. He uses this expertise to train other Doctors at his clinic. This year I have seen patients who had been to one of these pop up clinics, and had received a treatment called photodynamic therapy or PDT. This was given to them as a first line treatment. It had been applied to half or all of their faces. This not only is the incorrect treatment for these patients needs, but very dangerous, with extreme side effects reported here and in the USA. But more worrying was that they were unknowingly applying this light treatment to a very aggressive type of Basal Cell Carcinoma on the patients face and neck. This had left scar tissue, and made it even more difficult to treat correctly. The doctors had not only missed the aggressive

and quite invisible skin cancers, but used the wrong treatment entirely. In the past there has been widespread incorrect use of this PDT treatment, where it was used primarily as a money maker for some clinics and not the right treatment for the patient. Dr Parker advises patients to be very wary when they are offered very expensive treatments, that aren’t the mainstay of skin cancer treatment. Unfortunately I hear horror stories like this every day, Dr Parker says. Myself and our resident Plastic Surgeon do very large skin grafts on many patients who have had this treatment, and this is not an acceptable outcome for patients who have these severe skin cancer problems. They have already been around the merry go round seeing one Doctor after the next and getting nowhere. This is the last thing they need. Our approach to skin cancer and melanoma is the same as it always has been. We aim to find every cancer at every check up, and treat them correctly the first time. We use many techniques that are not commonly used by GPs and skin cancer clinics. One such technique is cryosculpture. This is very different to the usual ‘freezing’ that most doctors do. It does not leave a white spot or halo ring, and it is very effective in clearing large areas of surface lesions with minimal downtime. It is also much less painful. Recently National pathology audit results show that the Tweed Skin Cancer Clinic is one of the best performing in the country. We find 2 to 3 times more skin cancers and melanomas than anywhere

else. But Dr Parker says that this wasn’t news to him and the Doctors at the clinic. We are reminded of this every day, when we see patients that come in frustrated that their skin problems don’t change year after year, even though they are having regular check ups. We find and treat their cancers, and get their skin back on track and back to normality. Skin cancer shouldn’t ruin or control your life. If you are suffering from severe skin cancer problems and you are not getting anywhere with your current treatment, we urge you to contact the clinic. We will provide you with a thorough and comprehensive check up and layout a plan that will result in a vast improvement of your skins condition. We also have the assistance of a visiting Plastic Surgeon who has great skill in dealing with very complex cases of skin cancer and melanoma. We are also the only clinic Nationally who offer bulk billing for every primary or specialist service we that offer.

Whale season kicks off with record Fur seal a hit with sightings expected for Tweed Coast local onlookers

HASTINGS POINT residents were surprised to see a male fur seal relaxing on the rocks and soaking up some rays last week. The fur seal perched himself on a rocky outcrop near Hastings Point, as onlookers took photos. The Weekly spoke with a marine biologist Dr Clive McMahon from the Sydney Institute of Marine Biologists, who said the visit was out of the ordinary for a fur seal but not extraordinary. “Yes this is most certainly a fur seal,” he said. “Great sighting for sure. They do visit from time to time and its not super uncommon to see them as far as Tweed Heads. This looks like a youngster and again he (it’s almost certainly a male – they tend to wander more than females, also size suggests it’s a male) might have just simply being following a food source up the coast.” YOUR SNAPS: Did you snap the friendly fur seal at Hastings Point, or maybe another animal? See your snaps in print. Send your picture(s) to editor@theweekly.net.au

WHALE WATCHING season is in full swing across the Tweed Coast and onlookers are in for a treat this year with whale numbers expected to be at a record high. Whale groups visiting include humpbacks and on the rear occasion orcas (killer whales) that migrate from the cold waters of the Antarctic up to the warmer waters of eastern Australia. The whales visit to give birth to their young and when their babies grow a bit, they go back to Antarctica where mating and feeding then takes place. According to Whale Watching Australia, Tweed Heads and Coolangatta are among the most popular sites in Australia for whale watching. “The whales that can be spotted during a whale watching trip in the area can vary,” a Whale Watching Australia spokesperson said. “These are found from June to October as they migrate. They are humpback whales for the most part and they are known for being very large.” The number of whales that can be spotted is normally

very large, but it depends heavily on the time of the season. People can find five to twenty whales in about three to eight pods during a typical day in August and September with the number slightly lower in other months. Most of these whales are humpbacks but there have been some other types of whales spotted throughout the year and even some cases where a number of dolphins can be spotted alongside these whales. The youngest whales tend to move around first. These are young whales that are a year or two old and are no longer with their mothers. The mothers with their young calves will come up next followed by the larger whales preparing to mate. The pregnant females that are going to give birth in the near future will be the last ones to follow in a group. This is a unique thing to find in Tweed Heads when spotting different whales in a larger pod. To find out more Tweed residents can book a tour with Coolangatta Whale Watch (07) 5599 4104.

Hare Krishna Farm to celebrate five decades Local health service Krishna Farm Community in Australia at Eungella will celebrate 50 years since the ancient mantra became established as a global movement.

The Hare Krishna farm, which is located at 525 Tyalgum Road, has invited the entire community to celebrate this momentous occasion on Sunday, July 10.

The event will include a magnificent chariot parade starting at 10.30am, stage show at 1pm and will conclude with a sumptuous feast at 3pm.

There will be many market stalls and kid’s activities including a jumping castle throughout the day. The Hare Krishna philosophy, was introduced to the western world on July 13, 1966, when the International Society for Krishna Consciousness (ISKCON) was incorporated in Manhattan, New York. Since that time the movement has gained followers across the world. Murwillumbah Doctor Kishori Dasi visited The Weekly on Monday and said the event was a big moment for the Hare Krishna Farm and the entire community. “Being the biggest Hare Krishna community in Australia, I think it’s a big event for Eungella,” Dr Dasi said. “We’d love to invite the entire community to come and enjoy the event.” To celebrate the 50th Anniversary, ISKCON centres worldwide are holding special events and have printed a commemorative magazine for international distribution. Some notable events to date include a visit by the UK

What is Hare Krishna?

It was 50 years ago this month that Founder AC Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupad formally registered his fledgling society that is now a flourishing world-wide movement with 650 temples, 54 schools, 65 farming communities and hundreds of thousands of members worldwide. The Hare Krishna mantra, also referred to reverentially as the Maha Mantra (“Great Mantra”), is a 16 word Vaishnava mantra which is mentioned in the Kali-Santarana Upanishad, and which from the 15th century rose to importance in the Bhakti movement following the teachings of Chaitanya Mahaprabhu. This Mantra is composed of three Sanskrit names of the Supreme Being; “Hare,” “Krishna,” and “Rama”.

Prime Minister to the London temple on July 11th 2016 to celebrate ISKCON’S golden jubilee. This London property was donated to ISKCON by well-wisher George Harrison from The Beatles. A huge event was also held at the Netaji stadium in Kolkata, India, attended by 25,000 people. In Australia, there have been many local events, some of which are a youth bus tour, an Open Day at the Eungella farm and a planned event at the prestigious Sydney Opera House on August 20th.

given nomination

A PROJECT to improve early detection of chronic kidney disease in Indigenous patients at Tweed Heads has been named a finalist in the North Coast Primary Health Care Excellence Awards hosted by North Coast Primary Health Network. The nomination was made in conjunction with National Aborigines and Islanders Day Observance Committee (NAIDOC) this week, which is an important time to celebrate the first people of Australia as well as tackling the widening gap that continues to grow between Indigenous and Non-Indigenous people. The Northern NSW LHD Renal Services/Bugalwena GP Early Detection of Chronic Kidney Disease in Aboriginal People has been nominated in the award category Reducing Inequity. The aim of the project is to improve early detection and management of Chronic Kidney Disease in the Community Controlled Aboriginal Health Care Setting. In Australia 18 per cent of Aboriginal people have indicators for chronic kidney disease (CKD) and early CKD is asymptomatic (Australian Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Health Survey 2014). The aim of the project was to improve identification and management of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander clients with early stage CKD. Integrating the expertise of the Northern NSW Local Health District CKD Nurse Practitioner (NNSW LHD CKD NP), Bugalwena General Practice Community Controlled Aboriginal Health Service (Bugalwena GP) staff’s knowledge of their clients and the development of algorithms in the electronic medical record (eMR) audit software provided by North Coast Medicare Local (NCML), a 1 day program was developed. Detection rates of CKD in the Aboriginal clients at the Bugalwena GP were increased five-fold. Prior to the project only 2 per cent of Bugalwena GP adult clients were identified as having CKD. Following the project this increased to 10.7 per cent.

NORTH COAST Local Land Services District Veterinarians have issued a reminder about the importance of monitoring cattle for Yersiniosis or Flood Mud Scours. With floods in recent weeks in parts of the Tweed, cattle producers are warned to watch for the deadly condition as it has the potential to cause significant losses in beef and dairy herds. Yersiniosis is a scouring condition usually seen in cattle grazing low lying or poorly drained pastures. It can also be seen when hay around self-feeders is walked into the mud. The condition is commonly seen after flooding (hence the name) and most cases are seen in winter.

Phil Kemsley, District Veterinarian for North Coast Local Land Services said “Flood Mud Scours is seen during the winter months, particularly after rain when mud is about and these conditions allow the soil born bacteria to proliferate and cause the disease. “The recent widespread floods and cold weather are typical triggers for Flood Mud Scour outbreaks.” Flood Mud Scours causes fever, watery diarrhoea and profound weight loss, typically in adult cattle. Some cattle are just found dead. Cattle producers should watch for these signs and contact their veterinarian immediately. For more information, contact your veterinarian.

Winter is here and many factors over the winter months can contribute to the increased susceptibility to colds and flus. Each one of us can actively participate in creating a stronger immune system and internal alkaline environment that can prevent germs from taking hold. The key to staying healthy is starting your immune defence at the earliest signs of feeling run down. Here are some naturopathic tips to avoid getting sick and for quicker recovery this winter: • Reduce stress. Make time to relax and recharge – take a 5-minute break to stand in the warm winter sun and get some fresh air and vitamin D. Take three deep breaths, think of 3 things you are grateful for and smile. • Increase your lymphatic circulation with daily exercise and fresh water intake. • Keep your kidneys warm and enjoy nourishing and warming foods for winter including lemon, lime, chili, garlic, turmeric, ginger, cinnamon, coconut milk, soups, curries, stews, seasonal fruits and vegetables, and herbal teas. • Boost your nutritional status – particularly vitamin D, vitamin C, and zinc. They all play important roles in regulating the immune system, enhancing the response to both bacterial and viral agents, reducing duration and severity of cold symptoms. Essential fatty acids are a natural anti-inflammatory. • What can probiotics do? Help maintain wellbeing and digestive function, reduce the side effects of anti-biotic therapy and yeast infections, protect against intestinal pathogens, enhance healthy immune function, reduce allergic symptoms, and more. • Herbal support - Andrographis can reduce symptoms and duration of colds and stimulate

Talking Local Politics with Michael McNamara

WHEN COMMUNITY members stand up to oppose unwelcome and inappropriate developments they are often castigated and mocked by those proposing or supporting those developments. On occasion they have even been described by sitting Councillors as “morons” or told to “get a job” even when they are 82 years old. They are often accused of being “NIMBYs” meaning not in my back yard. My response to that accusation during the anti-CSG campaign was not in any back yard. Community members expressing a strong view about specific developments in their community have sometimes been described as having vested interests. This is usually an attempt to muddy the waters and discredit these community members by those who really do have a vested interest. The only people, or organisations, that can correctly be described as having a vested interest are those who stand to make a financial gain from the proposal or are related to those who will make financial gain. People who live in an area and oppose its development should not be described as having a vested interest. Instead they have what should be described as a community interest. Some recent local examples include:

Tweed Valley Weekly Locals Supporting Locals

Damned if you do and dammed if you don’t Byrrill Creek Dam: Tweed Shire Council, as an organisation, might possibly be described as having a vested interest, since it owns the bulk of the land and would sell off the plantation timber it owns. Community members and organisations campaigning against a dam on Byrrill Creek could not. Coal Seam Gas: Dart Energy, who owned the licence over parts of the Tweed had a vested interest. Organisations and individuals campaigning against it, not so. Instrument Landing System (ILS) at Gold Coast Airport: The Airport owners have a vested interest but the locals campaigning against it don’t. In each of these instances community members and groups were armed with enough detailed scientific and other information that any fair minded person would have had to agree. Sadly, the politics of the situation often get in the way of the facts. Even with an immense bank of scientific data and overwhelming community opposition running in excess of 90%, the state government had to be dragged kicking and screaming to buy back the CSG licences in the Northern Rivers and some Councillors have, in recent years, opposed any and every resolution against CSG at Council meetings.

Even after an exhaustive (and exhausting) process of assessment of various water supply augmentation options in which the Community Working Group ranked building a dam on Byrrill Creek as the worst option of those available, some are still pushing for it. The ILS proposal is currently before the Administrative Appeals Tribunal, as locals continue to work to protect a world standard wetland and endangered species as well as their local communities. A common experience in the Tweed is that some Councillors seem more inclined to listen to the proponents (the vested interests) ahead of the community. One way to change this is to replace those Councillors. Another is to introduce transparency into the work of Councillors. These options are not mutually exclusive. There is no reason in the world why the diaries of Councillors, showing appointments, the people they meet and matters discussed could not be published for all residents to see. An electronic calendar, maintained and accessible on the Council website is one option. Many community members have taken advantage of Community Access to state their views to the Councillors about various issues and

development proposals. This is open and transparent. To sit through a Council meeting and, as happened a little while back, hear a Councillor say that they had also met privately with people who had a different view and that they deserved a hearing, without identifying them and the discussion, is very disappointing. When Councillors have private meetings as described above we don’t know who the individuals were, what they discussed, what they were pushing or what the Councillor might have said to them. Development is going to happen. In fact, in terms of sustaining the community, it is good that it does, but it needs to be consistent with community values and priorities to be the right fit. For development to complement community values and priorities there needs to be a change in approach that sees the community involved at the start, well ahead of individual developments, when strategic plans and such are on the drawing board. At the moment the community is often the last to be consulted and even then in a very tightly constrained timeframe. Council should involve the community openly and transparently at the start, not just being consulted but actively contributing to the development

of plans, strategies and policies. Council, when consulting about priorities and options needs to state the downside as well as the upside of a proposal. That way it would truly be the community that would set the scope, direction and pace of development rather than forever playing catch up. The best way to do that is to bring community members together in a focussed and supportive group endeavour rather than isolating them through one-to-one conversations in a shopfront or relying primarily on webbased contributions. We are a social animal and a recognition of that needs to be reflected in the consultation processes for them to be most effective in truly harvesting the views of the community. By involving the community early, in a real and effective way, Council could take a proactive role in supporting appropriate and diverse development that is consistent with community values. To get to this place we need a Council, and individual Councillors, committed to listening to the community first, rather than to the “men in shiny suits”. Until that happens there will continue to be contention rather than consensus in local politics in the Tweed.

Feeling Dizzy? YOU COULD HAVE A BALANCE OR VESTIBULAR DISORDER

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 ABOUT disorders.

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%. 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.

Taste of Kingscliff and Tweed Coast is a lifesaver for many local businesses Avoiding a Tax Office Audit Advertisement

I started working on the model over 5 years ago now and it is amazing to see how it has grown so quickly in 3 years. The feedback has been overwhelmingly positive and we do our best to ensure that we improve with each year. 4. What are some of the standouts for the event? Hard question to answer! There are so many fantastic and very different events. Our guest chefs are scooting here from Singapore and Hong Kong, and will feature cooking demonstrations during the Flight Centre Taster@Salt and also the Yum Cha in the Park. I am really looking forward to these. The Signature Dinner – Taste of Opera at The Lake Cabarita is also going to be an amazing event. There will be matching entertainment and menu! Should be an incredible night. 5. Could you give us any history of the event? Or why it was started? We are moving into our third year. The event was the brain child of Jayne Henry and designed to drive our local economy during the quietest time of our tourism year. July is when accommodation providers are at their lowest capacity and our local businesses are struggling. We also work with TAFE to develop student skills and create a live event hub in a learning situation. 6. Could we see more events like this in the Tweed’s future? There is always room for more events with a point of difference. The event space is a very competitive market however and to remain sustainable, an event model needs to have strong initiatives to inject dollars into the local economy and to create interest to visit our region during tourism downtime. Hosting events during our busy times will have no impact to direct visitor expenditure in our region.

Local teacher shares passion for France FRENCH BORN Isabelle Pilonchery, an accredited Alliance Française teacher, has been teaching her native language for 25 years and still loves to share her passion for the language and culture of France with others. Isabelle has teamed up with Deirdre Stewart, a Scot who has lived in Australia for over 30 years and has a deep love of the French language and culture. Deirdre will be involved in marketing, event planning and assisting Isabelle in teaching across a new set of classes the ladies are offering in French. The two met when Deirdre joined an advanced conversation group Isabelle was running and a firm friendship began. Day and evening classes are kept small (4 to 6) and held in a relaxed social setting in Kingscliff. Isabelle uses the immersion system where she speaks little English, which helps students to build vocabulary

and gain the tools to actively practice new words and sentences straight away! Absolute beginners find the small groups a comfortable, enjoyable environment for learning and building confidence. Advanced conversation classes build on existing language skills and refresh grammar. One-on-one classes are also available. To ensure that students are slotted into the right classes, Isabelle offers a free assessment, preferably face to face as this gives a better indication of their language ability. A free information night with refreshments will be held on Bastille Day, July 14. For more information call: Isabelle Pilonchery 0403 075 674

THE TASTE of Kingscliff and Tweed Coast is back for another big year starting from Friday, July 8, and running for 10 days. The event is one of the best and most unique food experiences along the amazing Tweed coast. This year’s program of events includes walk, cycle and food tours and talks, local and visiting chef demonstrations and signature dishes, a golf day, fashion and food show, cooking classes, beach barbecue and the two feature events: Flight Centre Taster@Salt and The Signature Dinner -Taste of Opera at The Lake Cabarita. The Weekly spoke with event organiser Jayne Henry who gave her insights into the event and how it helps boost tourism during a slower period. 1. Firstly, what’s the organising been like for the Taste of Kingscliff and Tweed Coast this year and what can locals and visitors expect? The organising for the event has been nearly a year in the making. It is a lot of time and effort to put together an extensive program such as this and to ensure that we involve as many local businesses as we can. Visitors can expect a fantastic 10 days of events all along our beautiful coastline including the 2 day tasting event at Salt Village this coming weekend Taster@Salt brought to you by Flight Centre. 2. What’s the planning like for an event such as this? Planning for this event is a year in the making and as you can imagine, takes a lot of time and effort. Local businesses are wonderful to work with and appreciate the involvement. Without the support of Tweed Shire Council and our corporate sponsors it wouldn’t be possible. 3. Who has inspired the event and what’s the feedback been like?

our daughter Paris in the Tweed store.” Lisa said Colin’s family was originally from Murwillumbah with relatives that are still a big part of the community today. “We decided to open the shop in Murwillumbah as we love the area there and the people and for the fact the area is growing we want to accommodate the people there,” she said.

your

Sonja Pfister-Skeen at P Smith & Son Real Estate is your Agent of the Week AFTER RELOCATING from the Gold Coast 19 years ago, I found Murwillumbah to be the perfect community to raise a family and develop my career in Real Estate. Initially working locally in the Hospitality Industry, I developed many lasting friendships and quickly established myself in the area. It was during this time I built the foundations for a successful transition into Real Estate with P Smith and Son in 2009. My passion for Real Estate is based on the belief that it’s not just about making sales, but forging solid relationships with my Vendors and achieving the best price and conditions for a smooth transaction. Selling your family home or investment property can be a stressful time therefore you want the agent who always has your best interest at heart. Sales across the board whether it be

residential or rural have been consistent in the region. We are seeing a shortage of properties coming on to the market with the demand strong forcing prices up. According to RP Data Core Logic the median house price in the 2484 postcode is $370,000. My expert & professional tips for selling on the Tweed are to not necessarily believe the agent who tells you the highest price, you want the best, fairest price in the current market. Over pricing causes damage to your property, creating longevity in the market raising questions from prospective purchasers. Finally, a first impression is a lasting impression. Contact me today to discuss your Real Estate needs. To arrange a meeting with Sonja visit P Smith & Son Real Estate at 85 Murwillumbah Street. Or phone (02) 6672 1007.

Big gains for Tweed real estate market CORELOGIC RELEASED their March quarter Pain and Gain report last week and it’s good news for the RichmondTweed area, with a significant decrease in the number of loss making sales. Pain and gain measures the profits and losses of sellers by comparing the most recent sale price to the previous sale price. It is generally believed that property will double in value over 10 years, however data from the report shows that it will take this long to start to make a gain in the regions. The combined regional markets recorded a 6.8 year average for homes resold at a loss over the

quarter compared to a 10.2 year average for homes sold at a gain and 18.1 years for homes sold for more than double their previous purchase price. CoreLogic research analyst Cameron Kusher said, “Property ownership, whether for investment or owner occupier purposes, should be seen as a long-term investment.” Capital city housing markets recorded a lower proportion of loss-making resales than regional areas of the country. Mr Kusher said, “The trends in regional areas are shifting with the proportion of loss-making resales trending lower in areas linked to tourism and lifestyle.

“On the other hand, housing markets linked to the resources sector are generally seeing an elevated level of loss-making resales after housing market conditions in many of these locations have posted a sharp correction.” The combined regional areas recorded $174.7 million in losses at an average of $60,689 compared to $2.7 billion in profit at an average of $140,992. The average losses were greater in the capital cities; however they also generally experienced much greater profits, more than double those in regional areas. The coastal markets have generally seen conditions

improve. Across the regions, the proportion of loss-making resales has been recorded at: 2.3 per cent in Illawarra, 2.3 per cent in Newcastle-Lake Macquarie, 7.7 per cent in Richmond-Tweed, 11.0 per cent in Mid-North Coast, 4.2 per cent in Geelong, 21.8 per cent in Bunbury, 22.8 per cent in Cairns, 12.9 per cent on the Gold Coast and 11.8 per cent on the Sunshine Coast. All of these regions are now showing a proportion of lossmaking resales which is lower than the recent peak. Bunbury and Cairns are the only regions where the proportion of loss-making resales is higher than it was 12 months ago.

The data shows that there has been a fairly sharp improvement in loss making resales over recent times in Richmond-Tweed, MidNorth Coast, Cairns, Gold Coast and Sunshine Coast. This is reflective of the returning value growth and overall improving housing market conditions in coastal lifestyle housing markets. The proportion of loss-making resales hasn’t been this low in many years across most of the regions detailed. With official interest rates having moved even lower and home value growth remaining steady a further decline in the proportion of loss-making resales over the coming quarters is expected.

March 2016 quarter highlights • 9.2% of homes resold recorded a gross loss on previous purchase price, up from 8.3% at the end of 2015 and also higher than the 8.8% recorded 12 months ago. • Total value of dwellings which resold at a loss over quarter was $362 million with an average loss of $66,073. • One third (31.9%) of homes resold for more than double their previous purchase price. • Total value of homes which resold at a profit, was recorded at $12.9 billion with the average gross profit recorded at $239,855. • 6.9% of capital city properties resold at a loss compared to 13.1% of regional properties. • 5.8% of capital city house resales and 9.4% of unit resales were at a price lower than the previous purchase price. • 11.2% of combined regional market houses and 19.2% of units resold for less than their previous purchase price. • Proportion of loss-making resales over March 2016 quarter across each capital city was recorded at: 2.1% in Sydney, 5.5% in Melbourne, 7.7% in Brisbane, 9.3% in Adelaide, 16.3% in Perth, 10.2% in Hobart, 21.1% in Darwin and 9.8% in Canberra.

They can install additional solar panels and battery storage now, to cover all of your daily energy use, slashing power charges.

Every cent of the Solar Bonus generated by your existing system is collected right up until the end of the scheme, when both system are combined. Your new hybrid solar system allows greater independence and typically pays for itself in 3-5 years. 888 Solar Tek tailor the new solar system around your existing equipment and provide 12 months free monitoring and support.

BOARD CHAIRMAN’S REPORT

Mantra Twin Towns Hotel and Apartments What a great sight it is to see the painting gantries swinging off the Resort balconies indicating the overdue painting is now underway with Higgins Painting Contractors making a major difference to the exterior building appearance. With all the initial pre-painting maintenance completed, the fresh look, when completed in late November or early December, will have a tremendous impact on the visual appearance. It will also add to the building’s value with costs shared between the Strata owners and Twin Towns lifting the life expectancy, rating and occupancy of this marvellous asset. The pedestrian bridge connecting Mantra Resort to Twin Towns is now around 18 years of age and certainly showing its age particularly from the effects of the salt air. This refurbishment is much more difficult than it would appear with road closures and gantries required for roof replacement and painting to do the work. This project planning is anticipated to be finalised in the next month or so with approvals required from Tweed Shire Council to close roads. Planning continues to completely refurbish rooms in the Twin Towns Hotel portion which is anticipated to take place in 2017/18 at an estimated cost of $7 million. Mantra have kept occupancy rates at an extremely high percentage since taking over management so it’s imperative to maintain the star rating to encourage visitations at the hotel which of course benefit Twin Towns Club and vice versa.

Festival of Light at Twin Towns We progress ever closer to expose the Light Show on the exterior of the main Twin Towns building. Meetings between Club management and Tweed Shire Council have taken place to explain how the building will look when completed after some last minute adjustments were incorporated into the end projection technology. Although expensive, as the best always is, the benefit of showing off the beauty of the Tweed on the outer shell of Twin Towns should encourage visitors and tourists to come to town to benefit the whole region. Once additional changes required to the development application are finalised the Light Show should create a tourist mecca by the end of this year. Sydney, Opera House, eat your heart out.

Important Upgrades at Twin Towns Voltage Optimisation Project: The second unit has been installed at a cost of $178,000 per unit. This will generate an anticipated return on investment over a maximum of four years, saving $74,000 per annum at current commercial electricity costs. We are looking to reinvest in cost savings for the future to benefit members. Voltage optimisers are essentially transformers used to deliver power at reduced voltage from the raw mains supply so with electricity costs expected to increase by 25% in the next twelve months or so, the savings by installing these two voltage optimisers are enormous. Dance Floor: The timber dance floor and surrounding areas were refurbished at a cost of $8,000, leaving an amazing polished timber

finish. The timing allowed a fabulous dance floor during the Cooly Rocks On festival in June for all our member dancers. Flame Kitchen: Next door, the Flame Kitchen has undergone a facelift certainly opening up the kitchen area for our sensational chefs to witness you enjoying their culinary delights but also allowing you to see the crew hard at work from outside. Keg Room Project: We can’t allow a ‘Club with no beer’ so due to an ageing cool room slowly dilapidating and losing the required minimum temperature, a new Cool Room/ Keg Room is being constructed at a cost of $785,000, including changes to the fire stairs to accommodate this new facility around the Loading Dock area. Works commenced in June with a three-month completion date so the beer will be cold for summer. Club Banora: A new replacement Chiller and Cooling Tower for Club Banora is now installed alongside the Tri-Generation Plant at a cost of $336,000. This new equipment will be far more efficient and cost effective with less water wastage and energy consumption. Its primary benefit is to ensure we have redundancy in the air-conditioning services to the Club for the next 25 years. With summer just around the corner, our members and patrons supporting Banora should be extremely comfortable in airconditioned surrounds. Restroom & Refurnishing: Final costing for the toilet refurbishment and the opening up and re-furnishing of the Tuscany room are approved so members should have seen work commencing late June in the bathrooms, with the transformation of the Tuscany Room into a new and improved Bistro operation also getting underway. These works will take a few months to complete after which time members will have the finest quality amenities and a new revitalised menu at the Slice and Fork Restaurant. Oasis Pools Complex: Bordering on thirty years old, Club Banora’s world class Oasis Pools swimming facility provides winter swimming in an eight lane pool at a temperature of 27 degrees. This fabulous temperature is a result of the Tri-Generation power plant installed at Banora some two years ago with the assistance of a government grant to benefit the Club and members. This amazing underutilised swim facility for members and the community with its ‘warmish’ swimming temperature can help keep your fitness levels up and weight down during winter months. Also during the winter months, the change room and ablution facilities are receiving a new paint job and general upgrade with a short closure from 4 July to allow for the completion of painting and some of the work for the ageing filtration plant. The hidden costs of maintaining Twin Towns Clubs and Resort to the standard members and community expect is never-ending with this short transparent presentation giving you some idea of where members’ money is spent. Good health and I look forward to catching up around our Clubs. Michael Fraser

Evelyn Hando cuts the cake to celebrate her 101st birthday.

Bridge still trumps Earlier this year, the Bridge Club celebrated their oldest member’s 101st birthday. Evelyn Hando has been a member of the Twin Towns Bridge Club for 18 years. At the Bridge Club AGM, our President John Verdickt was awarded Honorary Membership. John joined our Club in 1994 and has been on the Committee since 2006. This is John's tenth year as President - a record unlikely to be beaten. Under John's control and with the admirable support from his wife Lea, John guided the club during its transition from Club Banora to Juniors. Since that time the Club's financial position and membership has steadily improved. Our current membership is 155. Our table numbers vary from about 10 on a normal day up to 14 for competitions. In recommending John for honorary membership, our Vice-President Jan Haran said: “John works tirelessly for this club with a lot of help from his wife Lea. They continually go beyond what is expected - working day and night to solve problems - helping members with bridge and personal matters - visiting people in hospital and at home sick." The Birthday Congress was held in the Visions Room at Mantra Twin Towns for the first time. As with any change in venue there are always a few challenges. Some players still arrived at the previous venue at Club Banora. There was electrical or other interference with the Bridgemates so we resorted to the old and tested method of manual scoring and reporting. Our Director Alan Gibson took these challenges in his stride. The winners in Section A were Liz Jeffery, Howard Jeffery, Helen Tootell and Peter Tootell from Ballina. In Section B the winners were Graham Carson, Jim Roche, Linda Lennon and Christine Leivers from Twin Towns. In Section C the winners were a combination team with Jennifer Bavage and Maree Filippini from Redcliffe and Judith Smyth and Gail Perry from Twin Towns. The success of our Club is due in part to the strong support of the main club Twin Towns Clubs & Resorts and the generous sponsorship by Easton Funeral Service, Jennifer Meagher from North Estate Agents and our club members Brian Coleman and Marjorie Stubbs. We thank everyone who supports our Bridge Club. The Committee for 2016 is President John Verdickt, Vice-President Jan Haran, Secretary Tom Lyons, Treasurer Peter Walsh and committee members Lea Verdickt, Val Welland, Denis Magee and Ray Thorley.

CLUBNEWS www.twintowns.com.au Swindler Gold Medal winner James Squire Swindler Summer Ale, the only Australian brew to win gold at 2016 World Beer Cup, has landed at Twin Towns. The pale ale won the English-style summer ale category in the prestigious competition, considered the equivalent of the Olympics for beer. Some 111 Aussie brews vied for gongs but just two won podium places. About 1907 breweries from 55 countries entered the biennial competition staged recently in Philadelphia. World Beer Cup style guidelines describe the English-style summer ale category: “The overall impression is refreshing and thirst-quenching’’. Swindler pairs a malt base with an aromatic Calypso and Eldorado hops. The result boasts a light straw colour, billowy head and notes of pear and watermelon. It is best paired with hearty salads, BBQs and seafood. Swindler Summer Ale is one of two beverages selected as the Twin Towns members’ special for the months of July, August and September. Twin Towns, Club Banora and Twin Towns Juniors have fridge-loads of icy cold Swindler, available now for just $5. The other special is Jim Beam White and Cola stubbies at $7.50.

Rounding off the month on 30 July is popular Gold Coast quartet, Wally & The Gators, playing a string of best loved hits from the 50s, 60s and 70s, as well as popular songs from country, country-rock and blues. The bands kick off at 7.30pm so there’s time to enjoy an early dinner at Club Banora. Roast of the Day is the 2 for 1 special at Slice & Fork on Saturday nights so make a night of it with a hot roast dinner, then the show.

Oasis Pools temporary closure All pools at Oasis Pools at Club Banora will close for a fortnight from 4-18 July, taking advantage of the winter lull to bring workmen in to do cleaning, maintenance and repairs. The ladies change rooms will get a fresh coat of paint and new tiles will be laid in the men’s change rooms. Andrew Hunter from Oasis pools said work had been scheduled for a quiet time so it could be completed quickly, allowing regulars to return to lap training in the eight-lane 50m Olympic pool which is heated to a balmy 26 degrees through winter. Learn to swim and kids’ wading pools close for cleaning and maintenance every winter. Year round, Oasis Pools is home to diggers, masters, teen and junior swim teams, adult surf squads, triathlon and water polo training, aquatots, aqua aerobics and deep water running fitness classes. “The first time I saw this place I fell in love with it,” said

Andrew, who takes snaps of the pools at sunrise, sunset and big events like Christmas and New Year pool parties for the pool’s social media sites. Newcastle reared Andrew landed at Oasis Pools aged 33 via Sydney, Tamworth and Gladstone. He is now a 60-year-old husband, father of two and grandfather of three. “I started here with a coaching job. While I did that I worked in the club. Eventually, my wife and I took on the lease. We signed on to start on 1 January 2003. “I’ve seen kids learn to swim. Now they’re all grown up and bring kids of their own to swimming lessons. Or their parents come in with the grandkids,” said Andrew. Oasis Pools will resume regular opening times following the temporary closure. Monday to Thursday 5.30am to 6pm; Friday 5.30am to 5pm; Saturday, Sunday and public holidays 7am to 2pm.

CLUBNEWS www.twintowns.com.au Dami Im at Twin Towns Runner-up in the Eurovision Song contest in Stockholm and X-Factor’s 2013 winner, Dami Im, has set off on a national tour that will bring her to Twin Towns in November. Dami’s Twin Towns concert comes near the end of a 35-date tour that launched in Frankston, Victoria on 1 July and ends on 10 December in Perth. It has been a busy year for Dami, who recently released a new album Classic Carpenter, represented Australia at the 2016 Eurovision Song Contest and visited her sponsor child in Uganda to highlight the efforts of charity workers there. The Korean-born Australian singer, songwriter and multi-instrumentalist moved to Logan with her family aged nine. The new show features songs by Dami’s idol Karen Carpenter including There’s a Kind of Hush, Close to You and Rainy Days and Mondays, performed alongside her own hits Alive, Super Love, Gladiator and the Eurovision hit Sound of Silence.

The Lions Den at Twin Towns Gold Coast entertainer Daniel Mallari is delighted a new generation has discovered the joys of doo-wop. The blockbuster Pitch Perfect films and TV talent shows have introduced timeless classics or classic takes on contemporary hits to new audiences. “The truth is until you try it, you can’t really understand. It’s so much fun,” he said. Popera tenor Mr Mallari is one of a trio of Filipino Australians who perform as harmony act The Lions Den, coming to Twin Towns Showroom for a matinee show on Saturday 23 July.

The club and cruise ship favourites, who perform evergreen hits by boy bands and popular artists from the 1950s, 60s, 70s and beyond, may have just happened upon the perfect song list. An attempt some years ago to change the show’s running order ended with comments enough from loyal fans for the group to revert to the tried and true format. Now they add just one or two surprises each tour. Twin Towns’ audiences will be amongst the first to hear the band’s rendition of oldtime doo-wop hit Sh-boom, a 1954 hit for the Chords

which has had reggae and R&B makeovers and featured in films, TV shows and even a video game.

“It’s catchy, infectious. It’s about the goodness of life and dreams coming true,” Daniel said.

Mallari and bandmates rehearsed the song for months before they heard it performed by fellow Gold Coasters The Koi Boys on TV talent show The Voice and knew they were on a winner.

The Lions Den perform a daytime Saturday show on 23 July on which is sure to suit many more of their fans. Pre-booked tickets are $5 members and $10 for non-members. Tickets on the day of the show are $10 members, $15 nonmembers.

Judges Delta Goodrem and Jessie J danced in their chairs, audiences leapt to their feet and The Koi Boys went through to the next round. “It’s an old song, but if you haven’t heard it before it sounds like something new.

The daughter of the late Johnny O’Keefe and a popular singer and songwriter in her own right, Vicky looks forward to performing at Twin Towns with Digger before her home crowd. The pair will each perform solo sets and will use mid and end points in the show to come together to sing duets. Vicky’s latest album, 50

Diamonds, features songs penned over a lifetime. The album features the work of Vicky and her brother but most of the 13 songs were penned by the singer, songwriter, guitarist and pianist working her own. They include Because of You, inspired by the rockumentary Sugar Man about the elusive singer songwriter Rodriguez. Iconic rocker, Digger Revell, a contempory of JOK, got his break performing with the Denvermen, delivering three No 1 and 15 Top 10 hits on the Australian charts. He retains a loyal local

fanbase of rock, swing and country fans. His most recent show, during the Cooly Rocks On festival, was a sell out and had fans dancing in the aisles. Vicky O’Keefe and Digger Revell play Twin Towns Showroom on Friday 22 July at 11am. Pre-booked tickets $5 members and $10 for non-members. Tickets on the day of the show are $10 members, $15 non-members.

Add a two course dinner at Signatures for $35. See below for details.

Team up your Twin Towns day show experience with the $9.95 lunch special, available only to day show ticket holders and valid for the same day as the show.

Or have you been diagnosed with a new illness that you may be able to claim for. If you have been on a 100% disability pension, ask yourself has your condition or lifestyle changed since it was awarded.

We are only too happy to help our fellow Veterans. Hours Tuesday to Friday 9am -12 noon. Phone 07 5536 1164 or email us at admin@thc-rsl.org.au Jenny Sheehan Office Coordinator

MASTERS SWIMMING We cannot complain about our lovely sunny weather and the temperature of the pool has been most enjoyable. The Yamba carnival was held on the long weekend in June; it’s a great carnival and gives us an opportunity to enjoy the area. The results will be in the next issue. 750 swimmers from all over Australia competed in the National Swim Meet held at the Melbourne Sports and Aquatic Centre. Our three swimmers Di, Jenny and Paul all gained their personal best times. Well done, as the competition was extremely good. Once again, it was perfect weather for our ‘picnic social outing’ and those attending needed a medal when they completed climbing the hill on the point! Ding Dong

RUNNERS AND WALKERS Our annual Crams Farm run was a great success with over 30 participants. We bade a fond

farewell to long-time members Terry and Alison Cokeley who are off in their new motor home to travel around Australia. We wish them safe travels and we look forward to their safe return in three to six months. They will be missed by us all. We had our pizza lunch at Twin Towns (carb preloading) on 26 June and shared our training experiences in preparation for the Gold Coast Marathon on 2/3 July. Good luck to all. This year Runners and Walkers celebrate our 25th anniversary and we are planning a fun evening in September. Any past members who would like to come along to this event contact Tracy Mo 0414 590 940 or email enquiries@ttscrunnersandwalkers. org Also check out our website www.ttscrunnersandwalkers.org and like our Facebook page for news updates.

TENNIS A special thank you to Twin Town’s Management for all the improvements that are evident at the tennis courts. New fence wire is being installed and a wheelchair access pathway from the pool to the tennis courts has been completed. A social barefoot bowls day was held on 26 June at Club Banora. Thank you to the organisers. Perhaps there are some bowlers who may like to come over for a game of tennis? Soon everybody will be noticing the new smart looking blue shirts with navy trim worn by tennis members. Further orders may be taken later. Our Christmas in July will be celebrated on Friday 22 July in Signatures Restaurant at Mantra Twin Towns at 7pm. Looking forward to this social occasion and catching up over a sumptuous meal. Payment and names need to be given in advance. Kerry

GOLF Thank you to the Greens team for their timely and quality work in response to the damage caused to the course by the heavy June rain. The Committee has worked through all the issues raised by members at the March AGM and described action taken in recent newsletters that were provided on paper and on-line. Member input is always welcomed by the committee and new ideas and comments can be registered through our corporate email address golfcommittee@ twintowns.com.au Congratulations to our four pennant teams, two men and two ladies, for their competitiveness and particularly for the way they represented the Club.

Special welcome to our new members. Our numbers continue to grow, particularly the men’s membership. President Ken

MENS BOWLS The 2016 Club championships are almost finished and at the time of writing, the Vets singles and mixed pairs are still in progress.

Our sister club Aquaducks has folded and given their funds to our Diggers Swimming Club. To accommodate Aquaducks members now swimming with us, the winter swim format has been changed to include finals. As well as being registered with AIF Swimming, Diggers have also now affiliated with the Australian

Winter Swimming Association. “I’ll have what she’s having” is a famous movie quote, and what everyone was thinking when Jen Annett won all races on a recent Sunday. This entitled her to three frozen chooks, but she kindly gave two away to the runners up. It would be a good idea to ring to make sure the pool is open before going there in July, as the pool will be closed for up to a fortnight for change room refurbishment. The friendly Dolphins club have invited us to have an ocean swim with them on those Sundays. Bubbles

DIGGERS GOLF 8 May Single Stableford – Mother’s Day: Donor D Kammer; winner P Chong 19pts; runner-up D Kammer 22pts; Dave Kammer top scored unfortunately cannot win as trophy donor. Hard luck Dave and nice golf Paul to claim the win. 15 May Single Stableford vs Nerang RSL- 18 holes: Donor R Chong; winner R Walker 40pts; runner up H Boyle 38pts. Nice to see you back Ray playing good golf, like your handicap. 22 May Monthly Medal: Donor Social Club; winner F Caspers 38 net; runner-up C Harding 39pts. Well done Fred and a popular winner. A new shirt is coming your way. 29 May Single Stableford: Donor D Donaghy; winner G Veivers 19pts; runner-up R Chong 19c/b. Nice win Big Pres, keep up the good work.

SENIORS SOCIAL CLUB The next meeting will be on 18 July at 9.30am in Visions on the Mantra side of Twin Towns. Selling at the meeting will be tickets for 25 July Lismore day trip.

SNOOKER Hello all, another exciting month on the tables. Local club favourite Stan Hunter took out the Sponsored Sunday Event on the 29 May defeating Brian ‘Shake n Bake’ Green in a hard fought battle going right down to the wire. In the main competition were semi-finalists Peter Grunsell, Des Turner and Terry Malone defeating Kevin Brett in the repechage. Twin Towns visited Redcliffe this month for an interclub match, with Redcliffe defeating Twin Towns 19-13. Some quality snooker was on show at this great social day. Also, we have had a change of dates for the FNCSA doubles. The doubles has been changed

Ph: 07 5536 2277

to 4 September at Lismore. Good potting and we’ll see you at the tables. Luke ‘147’ Poile

FISHING CLUB Mild conditions outdoors and too much concentrated salt in the river led to a reduction in quality catches this round. Most club members pulled up with an empty bucket, while we wait for the inevitable deluge to flush the river system. The Twin Towns competition saw only two competitors to weigh in fish, Frank winning the points with a bag limit of quality bream and one nice flathead weighing in at 3.95kg. The next competition will be held on 16/17 July and weigh in is now at Twin Towns Juniors at 1pm sharp. Twin Towns Fishing Club is always looking for new members. Go to www.twintownsfishingclub. com or call club President Rod on 07 5524 1160 or Vice President Ferdi on 0414 812 907. Loretta

LADIES BOWLS Games Director Judy Johnson has been working very hard to get the competitions for 2016 all decided. The Open Singles for 2016 were won by Maud Tate, B Grade Singles won by Julie Johnson and the Novice Singles won by Susan Selby. The Club’s 32nd Birthday was held on 3 June. The ladies were lucky with the weather as bowls was played in the morning and it was raining when the ladies came in for lunch. Our guests for the day were President of the GCTDLBA Jill Buchan Jnr, President Helen Espe and Committee Member Heather Penrose. President Sheryl Braden welcomed all players and non-playing members and recognised all for the work they have performed for the Club in the past. District Pennant commences 8 July and continues until the end of September. Happy bowling. Hilary S Publicity Officer

GARDEN CLUB The June meeting saw Anton Vanderbyl of Mullumbimby display a large variety of vireya which is a tropical rhododendron. Anton explained how these gorgeous little shrubs don’t like to be waterlogged, but do like to be set in tea tree mulch. If you have heavy clay soil, instead of digging a hole you can create a mix of half tea tree mulch, half potting mix and make a mound to settle the plant. With total neglect these plants are very happy. For advice call Anton on 0439 721 847. Our club is grateful for speakers and enjoys the members’ flower displays. It’s a great opportunity to comfortably pick up information, get answers to your questions and enjoy morning tea. 12 July is a BBQ picnic day celebrating Christmas in July. Next meeting is on 5 July at 9.45am at Club Banora. For enquiries call Maria on 5524 8234 or see you there.

Lightning Bolt Convoy calls into Twin Towns Last month Twin Towns welcomed the Lightning Bolt Stand Tall Convoy as it made its first stop at Tweed Heads on an historic 12-day, 2,322km journey starting in Brisbane, travelling throughout New South Wales, Canberra and finally to the Melbourne MCG. Raising awareness about Post Traumatic Stress (PTS), the convoy comprised multiple representatives from the Emergency Services, as well as the Australian Defence Force, with ambassadors Greg Chappell and Greg Ritchie making guest appearances at venues along the way, including Twin Towns. The convoy held a number of community events in the towns visited, aimed at breaking down the existing stigma around mental health, and PTS in particular, by encouraging greater public awareness and most importantly, improved education. It also raised funds along the way, with money going toward PTS research, and treatment organisations across Australia.

Matthew congratulates Justine as Labor MP back to work IT’S THREE more years for Labor MP Justine Elliot who has been returned to the seat of Richmond and was quick to get back into work this week. Mrs Elliot spoke with The Weekly inside the winner’s circle at the Tweed River Jockey Club on Tuesday, July 7, surrounded by her supporters. “I would like to thank the residents of Richmond for re-electing me as your local MP. I’m honoured and humbled that you’ve placed your trust in me again,” she said. “I will continue to make sure that our region has a strong voice in our Federal Parliament and locally I will always stand up for you on the issues that are important to us. “To ensure we get our fair share from Canberra, I’m committed to continuing to work tirelessly on your behalf.” Mrs Elliot said her door was always open and said the vote was decided on protecting Medicare. “My door is always open to everyone throughout the electorate, no matter your politics,” she said. “I’ll always be working hard for you and I thank you for the opportunity to serve. “Every election is a challenge and this election was a referendum on Medicare. So many locals were concerned about Malcolm Turnbull and Nationals harsh cuts to Medicare. Locals understood that only Labor would save and protect Medicare.” Matthew Fraser spoke with The Weekly on Tuesday this week and said he was

humbled to received the highest primary vote. “I’m very proud of the positive campaign we took to the election and very humbled to receive the highest primary vote again,” he said. “More people voted for me than any other candidate and I thank the electorate for their continued support. “Unfortunately we could not beat the preference flow from the Greens which therefore returned Labor for a fifth term. “I spoke with Justine Elliot yesterday and congratulated her and her husband on their victory and wished them all the very best.” One of the biggest results from the Richmond electorate was the strong Greens results with Dawn Walker picking up 20.6 per cent of the primary vote (at the time of print). Mrs Elliot won 54.1 per cent of the twoparty preferred vote which was a swing of 2.6 per cent. The result is almost a mirror of the last election in 2013, with the same three main candidates in Mrs Elliot, Matthew Fraser (Nationals) and Dawn Walker (Greens). Results for the remaining three candidates were One Nation’s Neil Smith securing 6.07 per cent of the vote, the Animal Justice Party’s Angela Pollard picked up 3.05 per cent of the vote, while Russell Kilarney secured 1.45 per cent for the Christian Democrats. YOUR SAY: What message or questions would you like to ask the member for Richmond? Send you email questions or comments to editor@theweekly.net.au

Election comments in the Tweed media “Shame to see a 1st preference majority disappear to secondary choices, particularly as farmers are typically more green than people who live in the burbs. Again it looks like we will have an electorate in opposition and get nothing,” says Gregory Davies on The Weekly Facebook. “Well done Justine , you are out and about the electorate and have achieved heaps here for Richmond . The voters have once again spoken and thanks for your hard work ! So pleased for you,” Judy Polly Choat said via social media. “I didn’t vote for her neither nor Mathew but Justine does listen and does support community issues if you approach her. So may not be so bad. Honestly I can’t say I’ve seen him at any public rally like I have Justine and Dawn. We shall see,” Karen Louise Halliday said on social media. “I know first past the post has its problems but Fraser got 10 per cent more of the primary vote than her. How is that fair?” Kurtoso McOso said on social media. “We all know how the preferential voting system works. Everyone knew who they preferenced from 1-6. Using Mr Fraser’s example, of first past the post, we could conceivably have a person elected on 17 percent. Hardly representative of the electorate,” Merv Barr said on social media. “But these preferences are our preferences - the ones the voter selects. Without them we would have a system where there is only an option to vote for the big 2 parties, all other votes would be an absolute waste. I am glad my 2nd or 3rd choice would count if my 1st could not,” Cassie France said on social media “Go Green go!” Camile Lansom said on social media. “The people have spoken, deal with it,” James William Martin said on social media.

No puff for passage race

THE TWEED Valley Sailing Club held its third Tumbulgum Passage Race on Sunday, July 3. It was a beautiful warm winters day with a clear sky and glassy conditions. Sadly, there was no wind on the river and when the 24 entrants faced the start line there was little movement from the get go. Race organiser Kevin Bourke said the few little puffs that came along saw the fleet break into two groups as they drifted downriver with the outgoing tide. “A light north-easterly started blowing in after 12 as the

fleet sailed under the Tumbulgum bridge,” he said. “This wind stayed in and the winning boat was able to cross the line at Fingal Head after 4 and half hours of sailing. “A feature of the race this year were the 7 trailer sailers and keel boats which set off from below the Tumbulgum bridge.” Mr Bourke said line honours went to Michael Wilson sailing ‘Willarch’ a Laser in 4 hours 26 minutes. “Last boat home was Mark Reynolds in ‘Keenas’ a

Corsair in 6 hours 6 minutes,” he said. “Overall handicap winner was Glenn Williams from the Big River Sailing Club on an OK dinghy. “Class winners were Michael Wilson in the Laser class. Mike Robinson in the Impulse class and Monique Smith in the Corsair class. “In the cruising group the winner was Glenn Sight on his Southern Cross 23 Pelangi. “One unusual boat in this years race was a traditional timber boat sailed by John Richards from Uki.”

Tweed Creative Studios attracts Tweed Theatre Company Inc Brisbane entertainment agency presents Seven Little Australians “Their experience ranges from international tours, to working with pubs and clubs to utilise entertainment more effectively in their marketing campaigns, corporate to community events, web design and publicity campaigns.” Mrs Waters said the Pushworth team covers four different generations with each team member in their own right bringing a wealth of industry knowledge and experience. “Their artist roster has been home to Grammy, ARIA and APRA award winners for more than two decades,” she said. “As one of the most respected and longest run agencies in the country, Pushworth has played a fundamental role in Australian events and the careers of entertainers for over 26 years.” Tweed Creative Studios will hold a launch for Pushworth on Thursday, July 14 from 5-8pm. To find out more phone: (02) 6672 5556 or visit 1/19 Buchanan Street.

The Musical....

A

musical feature stage production created by Australian composer David Reeves based on Ethel Turner’s classic story “Seven Little Australians” premiered in 1988. Directed by Peter Gray with a cast of 30 local actors and singers plus a live orchestra. Ethel Turner’s classic tale has been taken to heart by young and old since 1894. It has been turned into film in 1939, a television series in 1973 and the stage musical in 1988. The book has been translated into nine languages and has never been out of publication in over a hundred years. Elegant and handsome but recently widowed Captain Woolcott (Peter Gray) struggles with himself and his once well ordered young family after remarrying a young bride (Kylie Stringfellow) fresh from a huge outback property and who quickly provides him with a seventh young mouth to feed. The Captain’s commanding officer (Doug Williams) thinks it best ff the Captain and his family take a new house well away from the barracks. This is a powerful love story between an inhibited father and a very uninhibited daughter, (Taylah McLennan) told through song and dance. It tells of the love that is not always easily expressed between a man and woman, a father and daughter, a fact that which is often so confused between the generations. Captain Woolcott was one such man and his journey and the journeys of the ones he loves so dearly are compellingly revealed in this musical stage production.

This is a story of yesterday and very much of today, with all its possibilities and dangers. “SEVEN LITTLE AUSTRALIANS” - The Musical, runs from July 15 to 31 at Tweed Heads Civic Centre Cnr. Brett & Wharf Sts. Friday & Saturday at 7-30pm BYO tables and Sunday Matinees at 2.00pm Theatre Seating.

Ball Series approaching final rounds

THERE ARE only three Balls left in 2016 including the Tyalgum Ball on July 16, Uki Ball on the July 23 and Chillingham on July 30. The final Ball is where we declare the title holders of the 2016 Tweed Ball Series and will take place be at the Murwillumbah Catholic Hall on August 6.

Gertrude Bell was a larger than life character. A remarkable woman, a feminist before her time, she was born at the end of the 1800s into a wealthy British family, majored in history and - because of her restless and fearless personality - ended up becoming an explorer, an archeologist, an adventurer, a diplomat and possibly a spy.

This is a busy finish to the Ball Series for our family friendly evening of social dancing. Tickets are available at the door and dancing starts at 8pm, supper is included and the evening finishes at midnight. All are welcome.

Veteran German film-maker Werner Herzog – of Fitzcarraldo fame - has made a movie about Gertrude, fictionalizing part of her life but mostly following the actual chronology of events. The film combines beautifully exotic locations and atmosphere that bring to mind the One Thousand and One Nights folk tales with a historical subtext that challenges our present understanding of that part of the world. Nicole Kidman stars in the protagonist’s role and James Franco as her passionate but unfortunately doomed love interest.

She spent her adult life in the Middle-East where she visited remote areas and made acquaintances with local tribes – achievements that would be almost impossible in today’s geopolitical situation. She is described as “one of the few representatives of His Majesty’s Government remembered by the Arabs with anything resembling affection”.

Big changes for Origin 3 NSW have made some changes! They had to, ‘if you do what you’ve always done – you’ll get what you’ve always got!’ Wayne Bennett (he knows a thing or two about coaching). I like Tedesco, he is in form and is super energetic and confident. Dugan if fit was a no brainer and great to see Wade Graham get a jersey after the false start fiasco game 2. I thought they would have found a place for Moylan and the three in the ‘development’ team Cartwright and the two Trbojevic’s are great additions. I do hope they reduce the price to make it a massive crowd and although he gets a bad wrap Gallen has been a stalwart for NSW and deserves a good send off and crowd to do so. Myles returns obviously for Qld, he

is a dead set Origin player. I reckon Manly should put his qld jumper underneath his Eagles one. Different player in the origin arena. Great to see Gavin Cooper get a start for the Maroons. He terrorised me one day at Redcliffe 2005 and I think that got him an NRL contract so I’m claiming to be part of his success. What a great story about Blake Austin and his Random Act of Kindness on Sunday on the way to the game against the Knights (and didn’t they get lucky). Was great to read his take on it also that it was the ‘right’ thing to do. If a lot more people did the ‘right’ thing and showed integrity, morals and values in their life the world would be a better place and Blake Austin is proving that, he is a pretty special footballer also.

The Broncos have conceded 88 points in two weeks and are in some real barney rubble. The mastercoach and his super star team will need to turn it around and very shortly. Melbourne and Cronulla are easily the two form teams of the competition at the moment and are streets ahead. The NRRRL competition continues to be close with the Mustangs having a good win against Casino on the weekend but will travel to Ballina Sunday to take on a desperate seagulls side who need a result to stay in touch on the back of three premierships in a row. The big spending Hornets sit on top and will be a force come the business end. See you at the footy.

TWEED RESIDENT Warren James said he has concerns for the sugar industry if a Green Party policy to tax sugar gains momentum with the major parites. Mr James wrote to The Weekly following the Federal Election this week and said greater sugar taxes would be “an attack on 40,000 regional jobs in Australia”. “Is this a policy over riding common sense,” he wrote. “The Australian sugar growers did it tough in the 1990’s with the issues related to tariffs and the deregulation of sugar prices. “Giving an advantage to overseas imports. I attended a Senate Inquiry in Brisbane where there was a panel of federal government Senators and an audience of about 100 people with representatives of various organisations including the sugar industry. “It must surely be a whacky Greens policy to lower the consumption of sugar by • Australian by raising 3 Separateconsumers Motors: Head lift, the cost with the imposition if a tax.

Why are we waiting? Road disruptions causing angst SEVERAL Tweed motorists have raised concerns over road disruptions and closures across the Shire, with several asking “why road maintenance is taking place at peak traffic hours”. Motorists using Tweed Valley Way were particularly disgruntled with one motorist contacting The Weekly to complain about the number of signs springing up everywhere. “I’m not complaining about improvements to Tweed Valley Way, but there’s that many signs saying 100 or 80 or even 60, then there’s signs with plastic bags over them and signs for the workmen and signs for the stop/go,” the resident of Tumbulgum, who preferred to remain anonymous, said. “I realise the world is safety crazy, but there’s also such a thing as over doing it on the road. And finally, what ever happened to night works – why do council workers have to work during peak hours (4pm6pm)?” Meanwhile, council has sought to ease concerns by publishing the latest road disruptions listed below: Road closure: Sutherland Street / Casuarina Way, Kingscliff. Road closed at Cudgen Creek to allow bridge demolition

clarity on the proposed tax. In a statement, Mrs Walker said the Greens have called for a blanket 20 per cent “sugar tax” on soft drinks to tackle obesity, a measure estimated to collect $500 million a year. “It would reduce the number of new type 2 diabetes cases by about 800 a year,” she said. “The World Health Organisation also advocates a sugar tax in its report Ending Childhood Obesity.” Mrs Walkers also provided some facts and figures on Australia’s sugar industry including 80 per cent of sugar produced in Australia is exported, of the 20 per cent that is used domestically only a small proportion is used for sugar sweetened drinks, the impact of the tax on sugary drinks will, by itself, have a modest impact on consumption and finally “The Greens believe that the health benefits for Australia are worth it” she said.

Featured Business

Hello my name is Fiona; I have been living in the beautiful Tweed Region with my husband and our 2 children for the last 20 years, and there is no place I’d rather be. Ever since I can remember I have been organised and tidy; a place for everything and everything in its place type of girl. I think my mother was a huge influence on me. She was an interior designer and a minimalist so I grew up in a home that was clutter free. Friends have always commented when visiting my home how nicely decorated and organized it looks and asked me how I manage it while being so busy. Talking to other mums, friends and family about our fast paced lives made me realize that so many want to simplify their lives and be more organised but they don’t know where and how to get started… thus the idea of ORGANISED LIVING came about. I want to help others make this transition easy. I’m passionate about family, community

and sustainability and I believe that Organised Living so much more than just organising your stuff, emptying your cupboards, or living in a smaller space. It’s about creating a life with room for what matters most; and that means something different for every individual. For my family it means more time to spend together enjoying what we love. We have less but we have more: more clarity, more space, more freedom and more happiness. ORGANISED LIVING is just starting out yet your feedback and support so far has been amazing. If you want to simplify your life or simply organize your home or office, then I may be able to assist you. Call me for a free consultation on 0466377669. You can also find my Ad in the Trades and Professional Services under De-cluttering Downsizing. Organised Living Phone or Text (Fiona) 0466 377 669 Email: pitambari@egmail.com

BOWLS NOTES ZONE ONE Pennant Play-Offs, conducted at various venues in the Clarence and Tweed Byron Districts at the end of June, proved to be quite successful for two of our very own district squads – Ocean Shores in Grade 1 and Pottsville in Grade 7. A high standard of bowls in all grades was witnessed by very appreciative spectators and players alike. Ocean Shores Grade 1 side Troy Makin (S), Reed Burgess, Lee Roberts, Christopher Mitchell, Graeme Condi (S), Jon Gray, Trevor Mitchell, Andrew Montgomery, Brendon Egan (S), Tom Mullen, Rick Barnes and Dale Magnussen, with Manager Samantha Curtis – were up against a well fancied crew from South Lismore in the final at beautiful downtown Bangalow. Makin’s team had their work cut out as they clashed with tough opposition, but picking up a big five on the last end secured victory with a narrow margin. South Lismore opened the card with five shots first up against Condi’s gang. At the completion of the

eleventh end Condi and Co. had snatched the lead, and holding on well, won their rink with a three shot surplus. Compared to the wins on the other two rinks Egan’s team had a “walk in the park” as they steamrolled through the oppositions lines, closing the game with a very solid margin. An absolutely brilliant result for the Ocean Shores lads who went into the final as the underdogs against South Lismore who were last year’s State Runners-Up. The Ocean Shores’ lads will now head off to Nelson Bay at the end of July for a tilt at the State title. Congratulations, fellas. Cabarita’s Grade 2 side – John Turner (S), Mark Howarde, Bob Gormly, Bernie Lamberton, David Crow (S), John Rae, Barry Poole, John Ritchie, Laurie Freeman (S), Barry Sheppard, Darren Black, Greg Goode and Manager Robert Watkins – surely found the final against Evans Head to be a hard day at the office. Evans Head, who lost out in 2015, and regressed down a grade, proved to be strong opposition this year after being

with Judy Tuckey undefeated in all district games - only losing 3 rinks all season. Whilst the Cabarita boys played well, they went down on two rinks with John Turner’s team being the only crew to keep the opposition at bay, taking their rink with a two shot margin. Grade 3 saw Condong defeat Lismore City but lose to Yamba – the Zone 1 winners. Cabarita’s Grade 4 had a good start in cleaning up Alstonville with a hefty margin but the tables turned when they met Iluka the overall winners in this grade. Ocean Shores Grade 5 side had a dismal run, being downed by both Iluka and Lismore Heights. Cudgen Leagues, last year’s Grade 7 Zone winners and placed third at State level, found the upgrade to the Sixes at Zone level hard going and were out played in all games. Pottsville’s Grade 7 side – Harry Ash (S), Ken Curry, Jimmy Banks, Allan Durrington, Garry Donnelly (S), Bob Shaw, Michael Coyte, Jason Mann, Warren Whitney (S), Alan Meighan, Dave Lee, Laurie Swift with Reserve

Gary Rowland and Manager John Buckley – after a narrow win at District level, faced off against Brooms Head and Lennox Head in a bid to gain a berth at State level. All teams performed extremely well with Ash’s team scoring a very solid win against Brooms Head followed by a comfy win over Lennox Head. Whitney’s team also won their games with shots to spare in their matches. Team Donnelly, while

LOTS OF the Tweed Coast grommets will be hitting the Lennox/Ballina area for the Skull Candy Ozgrom Open starting July 8th going through until the 13th. It is the 5th year for the event, and replaced Gromfest, and event won by Mick Fanning and Steph Gilmore when the were only youngsters. It has a great history, and like Occy’s Grom Comp, which wraps up today, the events attract a field of grommets from around Australia and the world and is seen as one of the first stepping stones to a professional career. Local surfers Alyssa Lock, Piper Harrison and Kiani Dobbyn have all had success on the girls side of the draw, and other local surfers to look out for will be Micah Margison (Son of Brendon “Margo” Margison), and Dane Pullinger (Son of Gold Coast legend surfer Ralph Pullinger). Both of these boys have inherited the surfing gene from their old man, and will be out to make a bit of history for themselves. Good luck to all the groms from the Tweed Coast giving it a crack!

“Think Finance, Think Frasers”

fighting on valiantly, was unlucky to go down in their clashes with the opposition. With two rink wins against Lennox Heads and Brooms Head, tallying up went down to margins to declare the Pottsville lads victorious by a mere two shots and a berth in the State Play-offs at month’s end. Way to go, Potty, well done. See you on the greens. Good bowling everyone.

THE WORLD’S best are at Jbay with the waiting period already underway as I write this column. The heat may have happened last night, but everyone is waiting for Mick Fanning’s heat, his first since the infamous shark incident last year. Last week there were reports Mick had tweaked his ankle and may not be able to surf, but from where I’m sitting I reckon he will go and surf and face the demons. He will be a hard man to beat out there even if not 100 per cent fit. Parko is fired up and has declared he wants to beat Mick at JBay, these two mates have a friendly rivalry going back only 20 years. A Parko/Mick final would be pretty special. Matt Wilkinson is primed and surfed really well at JBay last year, and is looking to extend his lead. John John Florence and Gabriel Medina are getting closer, and Wilko is keen to put some further distance between them. “It’s feeling pretty good to be the rankings leader and it’s a better pressure to be feeling than the pressure to requalify,” Wilkinson said. “I’ve been doing some QS events and to win in Newcastle was an amazing start to the year. It’s just got better and better from there -- now we’re halfway through the year and it’s still going great. It’s probably time that a goofyfooter won this event and I feel like my surfing really fits here.” Jack Freestone is in form as well, ripping in at Ballito Pro last weekend so it should be pretty exciting with a good forecast from Wednesday through to Sunday at least, Action starts about 3.30pm in the afternoon AEST, and wraps up before 12pm at night… Break out the coffee and sit up and watch some great surfing this weekend!!

Cudgen Headland SLSC – Keith Kennedy CONGRATULATIONS TO our young squad who have passed their bronze medallion and surf rescue certificate and thanks to Matt Bell for their instruction and examiners. Bronze to Will Fitzgibbons, Chantal Luxton, Chloe Quinn, Elise O’Callaghan, Grant Rogers, Anthea Warne and S.R.C. Brodie Copeland. The first of three camps to be held for the North Coast Academy of Sport Surf Life Saving Program is being held this week at Byron Bay/Lake Ainsworth. Only 20 juniors are selected to attend and Cudgen members are Sophie Watson, Hayley Smith, Sophie Boyd, Joshua Jones, Chantal Luxton and Anthea Warne. They will be instructed by 7 coaches including board and ski at Lake Ainsworth and pool at Byron Bay. Later camps will be held at Port Macquarie and Coffs Harbour. Olympic honours for a past junior member, Gabrielle Nance who last week was named in the Australian Women’s hockey squad for Rio. As a junior with us she had won N.S.W. State medals and teamed with Codie Klein. Funding promises for Salt, $1 million and Cudgen $18,000 for a new mobile patrol arena hang in the balance at the moment and are dependant on a coalition government returning to power in a possible hung parliament. For every dollar that is invested in Surf Life Saving in NSW there is a return of 46 dollars. That was just one of many findings a new report into the economic benefits of Surf Life Saving NSW has found. The report “The Value of Surf Life Saving NSW to the Community” examines the direct economic value of Surf Life Saving in NSW to the community and the benefit cost ratio. It is estimated that the combined economic benefits to the community as a result of drowning and injury prevention is worth 1.9 billion. Preliminary findings from the report were delivered to NSW Parliamentarians at a function hosted by the Hon. Melinda Pavey MP, Chair of the Parliamentary Friends of Surf Life Saving group in late 2015 with the final report published in time for the end of the 2015/16 summer. The ‘coldies’ at home in a non point score had a swim in flat surf conditions with placing’s going to Peter Patch, Jan Gielis and Garry Singleton. A few members were still in the tour of Vietnam and others at the Tweed Heads ‘Dolphins’ carnival. The nominated time swim from Rainbow Bay to Greenmount was won by Leanne Hastings of the Marlins from Mark O’Donohue of our Coldies and Sylvia Tate, Nerangatangs. The relay placegetters were Dolphins B, Marlins B and A with our coldies 5th. The usual happy hour and members draw on Thursday nights and entertainment from 4 pm Sunday by Averaged Joe.
