Korns Bridge concerns from locals after chains installed

By Jo Kennett SEVERAL TWEED Shire residents have expressed concerns with the current and future use of Korns Bridge at Crystal Creek on Numinbah Road which is a vital connecting bridge to Tweed Valley communities. Several Crystal Creek residents raised concerns about the bridge both online and in letters to The Weekly calling for greater certainty around the structure’s future. But concerns have now reached an alltime high after the installation of chains on the bridge’s girders raised even more questions. A resident posted online earlier this month stating that locals live in hope of someday receiving a new bridge. “A few weeks ago some repairs were made once again to this supposedly heritage bridge and a new load limit of 18 tonnes was placed on it,” the resident, who preferred to remain anonymous, said. “Now the load limit has been increased to 27 tonnes because final repairs have been done. “A one lane with poor visibility, falling down bridge on a busy road, is a must for everyone who uses it. No word of a new bridge but the locals live in hope.” The load limit on Korns Crossing Bridge was reduced to 15 tonnes in late November, 2019, after an inspection detected damage to the support structure, according to a Transport for NSW spokesperson. “Temporary repair work was carried out, including the installation of chains, and the load limit was increased to 27 tonnes on December 6, 2019, following an assessment by structural engineers,” the spokesperson said.

and commenced an investigation into the incident under Strike Force Tancred. Tweed Police said following extensive inquiries, detectives and officers attached to Richmond Police District, with assistance from the NSW Police Dog Unit and Operations Support Group assisted in the investigation and eventual arrest. The man was taken to Tweed Heads Police Station and charged with murder, assault occasioning death and affray. He was refused bail to face Tweed Heads Local Court that day, Wednesday, January 8. Police said on Tuesday January 7, a 22-year-old male was also charged with assault occasioning actual bodily harm in company, affray and assault in relation to the incident.

Dogs driving me barking mad

What an absolute joke laws are for barking dogs in the Tweed Shire. Firstly, one dog barks most of the day and you get abused if you front the owner. Second dog barks all night, well up till 3am in the morning. Numerous letters and complaints to rangers and you are told at least two neighbours have to keep a diary for at least two weeks, writing down what time the dog barks, for how long it barks and for what reason it barked. So I have to sit outside house A and write down what time the dog barks, for how long it barks and for what reason it barked. And then I have to sit up all night and write down what time the dog barks, for how long it barks and for what reason it barked at house B. Well I suppose I’m awake till 3am anyhow, so I may as well do it. I’ve recorded the dogs barking and played it to the ranger, no, can’t do that, no proof, and it would not stand up as evidence in court. What? These are not isolated cases of barking dogs in the Tweed Shire and unless you are prepared to keep a diary and go to court, nothing can be done. Funny thing is that my neighbour and I are the only ones who hear them, no one else has made a complaint. So if you see me walking around with my eyes hanging out of my head, you know what I’ve been doing. So please dog owners, take responsibility for your dogs. I know dogs have to bark sometimes, but not to annoy the community. Eunice Higgins, Bray Park

Bushfire solutions needed

Since 1981 Australia has lost over 800 people to bushfire deaths and millions of animals. Such figures do not, however, account for other factors like smoke inhalation. The quality of air currently in our major cities of Sydney and Canberra is worse than Shanghai, China, at the moment.

Just before Christmas 2019, I flew into Sydney airport and couldn’t see anything but the white water of breaking waves on the shore, even at only 200 feet as the plane landed. At Parramatta some people were sensibly wearing face masks. My point being, a lot more people are likely to die from smoke inhalation than firefighters on the front line. Our government need to address the fact that Australia’s 2019/2020 bushfires have been caused from the drying out of our continent as a direct consequence of the everrising levels of greenhouse gases in our atmosphere and lack of rain, down on average by 40 per cent. The state of NSW had its driest year ever in 2019. Our government needs to address that fact that our domestic energy markets are broken in a way that costs lives by allowing fossil fuel power stations to sell the electricity they produce without being made to pay for the harm caused. Lastly, our government needs to address that fact that we export heaps of this atmospheric poison (coal) overseas. Last year we exported 208 millions tonnes of the stuff and pocketed 26 billion dollars. But the money won’t last much longer, because our major customer China is seeking new energy and heating sources (they’re not stupid). It’s mind boggling that Australia with all its natural advantages continues to mess up; when the obvious is the obvious? Please New Zealand, can we borrow your Prime Minister? Ours doesn’t work. Terry Sharples, Tweed Heads

I tried saving my waste

In response to Gayle Russell’s suggestion that we should save our toilet to use on the garden (TVW, Jan 9), I tried out her idea. It didn’t work; I couldn’t get the turd out the spout of the watering can. Malcolm Richards, Pottsville

Why no sign for Tweed River?

Unlike every river and every creek on the Sydney-Brisbane M1 Motorway, our Tweed River carries no sign bearing its name – neither north or southbound. Perhaps Tweed’s Aboriginals could right the blight akin to the southbound sign on Macleay River’s new monster bridge bypassing Kempsey reading: “Yapang gurraarrbang gayandugayigu” and which even bears the translation for the benefit of us illiterate as ‘very long track to the other side’. Ian Pratt, Bilinga

What about our furry friends?

As an animal advocate and activist I am expressing concern that the 2020-2024 Tweed Shire

Tweed Valley Weekly Locals Supporting Locals Council draft Community Strategy, currently on public exhibition, has neglected to include important reference to nonhuman animals in spite of Council claims that the strategy includes consideration of “all residents” including, the most vulnerable in the community. While I genuinely applaud Council’s approach to addressing the significant and important issues surrounding homelessness, climate change, health, wellbeing, inclusion, access, community consultation and engagement, and equity and fairness, these fundamental considerations should not exclude our animal friends. It is very disappointing that during a time of greatly heightened public concern and awareness about the welfare of all animals including the devastating death toll on our precious and unique wildlife, during these horrendous climate emergency and bushfire events, now modestly estimated to be 1 billion animals, Tweed Shire Council has not sought to broaden its own understanding and approach in this draft strategy to recognising how important animal welfare is to the community, and the undisputed links between animals, the environment and people. Council’s Community Advisory Committees each play a very important role in promoting inclusive decision making, however Council cannot credibly claim that it works collaboratively with all in the community to achieve this, given its recent refusal to establish an Animal Welfare Advisory Committee without even consulting the community. Wo r k i n g t o w a r d s b e t t e r community animal welfare outcomes is extremely important to many in the community, now more than ever, and Council needs to acknowledge this and facilitate a specialist committee to ensure this important subject matter is given equal and fair consideration to incorporate, engage and consult to ensure equal, fair and accessible decision making regarding all animals. Local government is the third tier of government and is intimately connected to community, how public money is spent and how the local community functions in line with a holistic approach to all of community needs, values and expectations. Any council strategy and associated plans and policies that are devoid of animal based considerations fails at the very outset in that it is excluding many vulnerable others in the community we co-exist and cohabitate with. I t ’s e a s y fo r c o u n c i l s a n d councillors to say ‘we care about

Cattle sharing a tasty piece of sugar cane. Photo by George Smith

animals and that animal welfare is a priority’. Such claims, however, need to be backed up with actions and results - doing, not just saying. Why is the Tweed region being denied an Animal Welfare Advisory Committee and which councillors and prospective 2020 councillor candidates are prepared to do more than make unfulfilled statements? Animals need actions, not mere words. I would encourage everyone in the community to have a say by 30 January to encourage Council to incorporate animal related issues into the draft strategy and establish a long overdue Tweed Shire Council Animal Welfare Advisory Committee. Lisa Ryan, Murwillumbah

Murwillumbah – thank you

Think I have found what my life’s been about Bout bloody time, I hear you shout. I’ve often buried my head in the sand For fear that nobody would understand Why books I read and movies I see, They give me hope and stability. I have led a solitary life When hubby died, I was no longer a wife A widow for life – now that was my choice My life in Australia – I can now rejoice Because I have found many a friend. Now the solely feeling has come to an end I’ve been called selfish, also unkind I am over the name-calling, pay it no mind The friendships that I have here found My happiness makes me smile and I can feel my heart pound. With every beat of my heart I can truly say If I can make one person – it just makes my day. So thanks to my friends in this not so small town I solemnly promise I won’t let you down.

We’ve laughed many times, and shared our sorrows I promise you this, we’ll share our tomorrows To all those I know in Murwillumbah This is the best town I have lived in by far By Carole, last name witheld, Murwillumbah

Please make it rain

Rainmaker rainmaker please make it rain On our dry grass and our parched terrain Let the clouds burst forth so the water can flow So plants, fruit and veggies bear fruit and grow We need it now, please answer our prayer We’ll be so grateful to feel the rain on our hair Let seeds sprout again not languish from heat Feel coolness and wet earth under our feet Quench our thirst, put out the fires The firies are exhausted,their family tires Let us feel raindrops fall on our heads The animals feel secure at night in their beds So the young and the old,have strength to pursue The play and the work we all need to do You ask what kind of rain you have in mind We’d like the refreshing, soft and gentle kind Rainmaker rainmaker please make it come down For man and for beast in bush and in town.

Teenager saves stricken swimmers in harrowing Wooyung rescue

By Jo Kennett A TEENAGE boy has saved the lives of four swimmers at Wooyung Beach on Thursday, January 9, in a harrowing rescue that’s made global headlines. Fourteen-year-old Clayton Schilg was holidaying at Wooyung Caravan Park with his family when he went to the beach with his friend Harry. His father, Barry Schilg, said Clayton, a member of Tweed Heads Coolangatta SLSC, saw a group of swimmers being swept in a current parallel to the beach and heard a cry for help. “There was an old board someone had put in the tree; it had saved another guy on the beach a couple of weeks earlier and Clay ran and grabbed it and paddled out,” Mr Schilg said. “He came across the first two people and they were okay, then he paddled to the next group of about four swimmers.” One of the swimmers grabbed Clayton and pushed him under but he shook him off and pushed the board at him. “One of them, Ben Jeffrey, was in a bad way; he was going under,” Mr Schilg said. “Clay got Ben on the surfboard and had two other campers on either side and then he had Ben’s brother hanging on to his waist. “He was trying to paddle and kick and hang on to Ben.” Clayton told The Weekly it was hard trying to get the four men in with the six foot shortboard.

“The board was really weighed down, it was pretty small,” he said. “I tried to sit on the top of the wave so I could glide in but it took about 15 minutes, but once I got past the dumpers I could catch the waves quite easily. “They were were exhausted and saying thank you, thank you, thank you.” Clayton, Harry and another man carried Mr Jeffrey up the beach and put him in a recovery position. “A nurse turned up and checked him and asked me questions,” Clayton said. “Ben wasn’t responding. “He said his name and then stopped responding.” Clayton’s mother Leanne Schilg said someone had called 000 and people were trying to explain where they were. “Someone handed me the phone and they asked if I was at Pottsville and I said, no we’re at Wooyung,” Mrs Schilg said. “I spelt out where we were. Then someone got the flag number (the beach access track marker) and told them but the lady didn’t know what they were talking about. “Then the nurse took the phone because his eyes were starting to roll back in his head. “His girlfriend Christine (Campbell) was grabbing my arm, panicking; I have bruises from her, she was beside herself and his brother was there holding his hand. “The nurse asked if someone could get oxygen, she said, “he needs oxygen and he needs it now”.

Locals gathered around stricken swimmer Ben Jeffrey at Wooyung following a harrowing rescue by Clayton Schilg (inset)

“His colour was changing and his breathing was really shallow.” Police were first on the scene before ambulance officers arrived and administered oxygen, stabilising Mr Jeffrey before taking him to hospital. Although many on the beach felt the ambulance took too long to arrive, NSW Ambulances confirmed that the first ambulance came from Pottsville and took 18 minutes, as it was responding to another callout at the time. Mr Schilg confirmed that 000 wasn’t called until the group was on the beach and that lifesavers arrived at the same time as the ambulance.

A spokesperson from NSW Ambulance said they, like the 000 responder, didn’t know anything about the beach access track number markers. Christine Campbell told The Weekly that her boyfriend was still in The Tweed Hospital. “He had kidney problems they think from swallowing salt water, although there could be some underlying problem we didn’t know about,” she said. “We have been in and out of hospital.

“Clayton is the bravest young man I have ever encountered. We owe him everything. “People had their clothes sucked off in the current; one boy came in completely naked but Clayton just paddled straight out. “Leanne was fantastic too, she was constantly reassuring me, saying, he is breathing, he is going to be okay.” Ms Campbell said Ben wanted to meet Clayton once he gets out of hospital. The President of SLS NSW also phoned Clayton to congratulate him.

THE LEGAL LIGHT! Can I inherit if I cover up a murder from which I benefit? You’d think the law was clear – a person convicted of murdering someone can’t inherit from their victim’s estate. But Joshua Crowther, accredited specialist in wills and estates at Stacks Law Firm, says under section 11 of the NSW Forfeiture Act, the Supreme Court can decide whether a person who murders someone, but is found not guilty by reason of mental illness can benefit financially from the crime. “One such case involved a man who murdered his parents, who had left him $1 million in their wills. He was found not guilty by reason of mental illness, and the court ruled he shouldn’t get the entire $1 million,” Mr Crowther said. “However, the Supreme Court said $120,000 from the estate should go to his legal bills, and $100,000 should be kept in trust for his needs in detention and to help him when he is released.” The NSW government is reviewing the wording of such cases, so that it makes clear the person is guilty of committing the crime, but because of mental illness can’t be held criminally responsible. But what if a person didn’t actually commit the murder, but tried to cover up for the killer? This was at issue in a case in Western Australia where a woman was found guilty of being an accessory after the fact to her mother’s murder. It was the notorious “body where a dead woman was suitcase found in the Swan out to be Annabelle Chen, dollar estate.

in a suitcase” murder, found squeezed into a River. The body turned who had a multimillion

The dead woman’s former husband Ah Ping Ban was found guilty and sentenced to 20 years’ jail. The daughter Tiffany Wan was found to have helped her father cover up the crime by lying to police. She was sentenced to four years and ten months. At issue was whether she could inherit her mother’s multimillion dollar estate. “There is a legal question as to whether the forfeiture rule should apply to her, as she was convicted of being an accessory to the murder,” Mr Crowther said.

The clean-up on the Pacific Highway took time following a major accident on Friday, January 10.

Multiple accidents on Pacific Highway

By Jo Kennett EMERGENCY SERVICES workers were kept busy with three accidents involving six vehicles on the Pacific Highway at Chinderah, bringing traffic to a standstill on Friday, January 10. Police and emergency services were initially called to the Pacific Highway near the Chinderah Road on-ramp where a B-Double had collided with a median divider northbound, blocking two lanes of the freeway. Fire and Rescue NSW Banora Point arrived on the scene first to find not only the crashed B-Double, but a multiple vehicle pile-up in the southbound lane opposite. Northbound traffic came to a halt as two lanes of the Pacific Highway northbound and the Chinderah Road on-ramp were closed while emergency services worked to clear the spill. Hazmat specialists were called in from Tweed Heads Fire Station while Banora

Point firefighters got to work creating dams with absorbent materials to contain a diesel spill from the truck crash. Tweed Police Acting Inspector Julie Lindsay said it took significant resources to control traffic and clean up the diesel spill. “The truck driver ruptured his fuel tank,” Insp Lindsay said. “700 litres of diesel were released in the accident, so it was quite oily on the road, but the truck driver was fine.” Deputy Captain at Banora Point Fire Station, Jamie Bowe, said there were four cars involved in the pile-up opposite the truck crash in the southbound lanes. “The concrete barrier from the truck crash blew debris on to the southbound lane and a vehicle heading southbound has struck the debris resulting in the pileup,” Mr Bowe told The Weekly. “One driver reported having minor injuries and the ambulance attended. “I’m not sure if he went to hospital though.”

The NSW Forfeiture Act 1995 applies to homicides and also “aiding, counselling or procuring such a homicide”. Similar laws apply in Western Australia.

Mr Bowe said that once Fire and Rescue Banora Point rendered the pileup safe, they were called to an accident about 500 metres up in the northbound lane. “A car had lost control and hit the lefthand side barrier resulting in their oil decanted from the vehicle, resulting in a spill that we then cleaned up to render the area safe. “The operation took about four hours. “We were called just before 6am and the incident wasn’t resolved until about 10am and there was obviously traffic was backlogged for a while. “It’s really important for people to slow down when passing stationary emergency vehicles. “Some people were going past a bit too fast and it’s just not safe for our firefighters. “We also saw a few people pulling out their phones filming. That’s just not okay.”

PTY LTD

“But in this case, Wan was found guilty of covering up the crime after it was committed, not of aiding her father to commit the murder. Sure, the law says you should not benefit from a crime, but courts can find there are exceptions, especially when the law isn’t clear.”

POLICE BEAT

Drink driver loses licence

TWO MEN have been arrested in separate drink-driving incidents, one at Kingscliff and the other at Tweed Heads, with one driver having his licence suspended. The Tweed Heads arrest took place around 4pm on Wednesday, January 1, when police pulled over the driver of a Holden Commodore for a random breath test in Lloyd Street. The driver returned a positive result and was arrested and taken to Tweed Heads Police Station for further breath analysis. He was subsequently charged with midrange drink-driving and his driver’s licence was suspended. He is due to appear at Tweed Heads Local Court on Tuesday, January 28. In the Kingscliff incident a man was arrested for low-range drink-driving at Kingscliff on Friday, January 10. Police said that at about 10.40pm officers stopped a Toyota Camry on Blue Jay Circuit for a random breath test, which returned a positive result. He was arrested and taken to Kingscliff Police Station for a breath analysis and was charged with low range drink driving.

Assault charges after attempted theft

A MAN is up on a number of charges including assault following an incident at a shop in Tweed Heads South on January 7. Police said it was around 1.20pm when a 45-year-old man entered a shop on Greenway

Cyclist arrested for drugs

TWEED POLICE have arrested a man on a pushbike and charged him with possessing drugs and housebreaking implements in the early hours of Sunday, January 12. Police said that at about 1am police were patrolling Boyd Street, Tweed Heads, when they spoke to a man riding a pushbike without a helmet. The man was carrying a tool holster with a pair of pliers and police asked him if he was in possession of anything illegal. The man admitted he was carrying cannabis, which he gave to the police officers. He also gave police a screwdriver which was in his pocket. He was arrested and taken to Tweed Heads Police Station where his bag was searched. It contained a number of tools which police allege were housebreaking implements. The 36-year-old man was charged with possession of a prohibited drug and possession of housebreaking implements. He is due to appear at Tweed Heads Local Court on Monday, February 3.

September 2011: Normally, the freshwater canals behind Pottsville Waters are full as water continually flows in from the Pottsville Wetland. This area provides important koala habitat.

December 2019: The freshwater canals behind Pottsville Waters are drying as water has stopped flowing in from the Pottsville Wetland. The wetland is now dry.

Watch out for Tweed’s koalas this summer Most of the Tweed is still categorised as suffering from intense drought and koala habitats remain extremely dry and are at high risk of bushfire. Forested wetlands on the Tweed Coast floodplain that are normally very wet are now dry, including the Pottsville Wetland. Recent devastating bushfires have resulted in significant declines to many koala populations throughout NSW and because of this, it is even more important to protect the Tweed’s koala populations. Here’s some things you can do to help protect the Tweed’s koalas. • Report a fire immediately by calling triple zero (000). The quicker the Rural Fire Service can respond, the better chance they have at

being able to contain the fire. • Report any suspicious behaviour or suspected arson to Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000. Bush fire arson is dangerous. It can destroy lives, properties and have long-term effects on the environment, including koalas. • Report any sick, injured or orphaned koalas to Friends of Koala 24-hour hotline on (02) 6622 1233 or find out more information or report koala sightings at www.tweed.nsw.gov.au/koalas You can also donate to Tweed Valley Wildlife Carers – one of the organisations in Council’s annual Mayoral Christmas Appeal (running until the end of January 2020) – at tvwc.org.au

Contractors will be monitoring sewage flows Council contractors last week began monitoring the flow of sewage within the Kingscliff, Hastings Point and Pottsville sewerage systems to help plan for future repairs and improvements. Contractors from ADS Environmental Services are inserting flow and level sensor monitoring equipment in sewer manholes and pipes at various locations to determine the capacity and performance of the systems. During the study, which will continue through to April, they will need to visit each testing site at least three times to insert, monitor and recalibrate equipment if necessary.

Sewage flow and rainfall data collected, together with hydraulic modelling, will be used to help plan rehabilitation and improvement works. The contractors will be working near, and at times within, private property to access manholes and pipes. When they need to enter a private yard, they will contact the residents in advance. At no time will they need access to any house or building. There will be no disruptions to the sewerage system during the monitoring period. Anyone wanting more information can contact Council Engineer Simone Gillespie on (02) 6670 2400.

Level 3 and 4 water restrictions coming Tweed residents are urged to re-focus on saving water after the holidays as we are not on target to achieve the savings we need to ensure our drinking water supply lasts as long as possible. Council’s Manager Water and Wastewater Anthony Burnham said up to Christmas the community responded well to Level 2 water restrictions (and Level 4 in Tyalgum) but since then consumption has been rising again. “We are not on target to achieve our savings under Level 2 restrictions and are due to move to Level 3 restrictions on Monday 3 February and then Level 4 restrictions by Friday 28 February if we don’t get significant rain in the catchment within three weeks,” Mr Burnham said. At the rate of decline of the dam supply, the Level 3 trigger of 65 per cent capacity will be reached in about two weeks’ time as Clarrie Hall Dam continues to fall nearly two per cent a week. “The fact our water supply is reducing rapidly and we are not saving what we need to under Level 2 restrictions strongly demonstrates the very serious situation we face,” he said. “We all need to save more water now, knowing tougher restrictions are just around the corner.” Mr Burnham said while Council would continue its education campaign on water restrictions, it also would be ramping up compliance and enforcement actions as we move rapidly towards tougher restrictions. “If anyone breaches water restrictions, they can expect a polite

Work is underway on a $1.3 million refurbishment of parts of the Murwillumbah Civic Centre Auditorium, thanks to funding from the NSW Government's Regional Cultural Fund. The auditorium will be closed from January to May 2020 while these works are carried out. During this time there will be some parking and traffic changes around the Murwillumbah Civic and Cultural Centre and access to the Canvas and Kettle room and vehicle entry ramp will be closed from January to April 2020, including the disabled parking bays. Alternate options for accessibility have been provided and a disabled car park has been established near the base of the disabled pedestrian ramp in the bus parking area. The pedestrian ramp to access the Murwillumbah Civic Centre administration office will remain open. The auditorium was built in 1974 and upgrades will bring it up to modern standards for accessibility, energy efficiency and functionality. Once completed, the upgraded facility will create modern, attractive and functional cultural spaces for current and future generations of residents and visitors to enjoy.

notice in their letterbox once. Any further breaches, they can expect a fine of $220 every time,” he said. Bureau of Meteorology figures have confirmed 2019 the driest year on record at Bray Park, with only 716.7mm of rain recorded, less than half the average of 1571mm. In 2002 when the Tweed last went to Level 4 water restrictions, the annual rainfall was higher at 767.5mm for the year. Since records began there have only been five other years when the recorded rainfall at Bray Park dipped below 1000mm: 2002 – 767.5mm; 1986 – 846mm; 1915 – 863mm; 1902 – 742.6mm; and, 1885 – 754mm. The bureau has also confirmed that soil moisture levels are very low (heading towards the one percentile), suggesting that any rain received will be taken up by the soil and result in little to no run-off to replenish the water supply. What is needed is significant steady rain. However, the outlook is poor, with the bureau forecasting a 35 to 40 per cent chance of receiving median rainfall or above from February to March – and only a 50 per cent chance of getting just 70 per cent of that amount. On the temperature front, the bureau forecasts an 80 per cent chance of higher than median temperatures. “These statistics and forecasts are evidence that the Tweed is in the grips of a prolonged and serious drought,” Mr Burnham said.

Youth Council delivers Council thanks members of the 2019 Youth Council, which was made up of 17 motivated students from seven high schools across the Tweed. The Youth Council is an advisory committee established to respond to issues relevant to young people aged 12 to 24 years and provide an opportunity for Council to develop better relations with Tweed’s young people. Youth Council member, Jazmine Cooke from Tweed River High School made some great headway this year on environmental initiatives, including a successful nomination to YMCA NSW Youth Parliament where she worked on a bill to ban single use plastics that went on to be adopted. She also developed an environmental project in partnership with Tweed Heads South Primary School and spoke about environmental initiatives at last year’s World Environment Day event. The young people demonstrated a genuine concern for their community, the environment and the impacts of climate change and appreciated learning about Council’s role in this and its future plans. Council’s Director Sustainable Communities and Environment Tracey Stinson and Senior Program Leader – Waterways,Tom Alletson presented the draft Climate Change policy to Youth Council members recently and young people have been encouraged to provide feedback on the policy.

Vandal-proof dispenser trial A request from Kingscliff businesses for hygiene facilities to be provided in Rowan Robinson Park has led to a 12-month trial of vandal-proof soap dispensers. The dispensers have been installed in public toilets at Jack Evans Boat Harbour at Tweed Heads, Murwillumbah’s Knox Park and Rowan Robinson Park in Kingscliff. Acting Manager, Parks and Active Communities Murray Smith said Council spends more than $100,000 annually on park facilities which are often the target of vandalism. “We hope this trial will assist in reducing what we spend on replacing and repairing Council assets that have been vandalised,” Mr Smith said. Council estimates that the number of people accessing Council parks over the summer holiday period doubles. “Our aim is to provide readily available and reliable hygiene facilities during this period of increased visitation. We will be monitoring how the new vandal-proof soap dispensers perform during this period of increased use, and over the 12-month trial period.” The 12-month trial began last month. You can report non-urgent acts of vandalism to Council assets by visiting www.tweed.nsw.gov.au/ReportAProblem. For urgent issues, call Council on (02) 6670 2400.

Local News 11

Concerns over Tumbulgum development proposal The application was submitted by ACL Investment Trust to Tweed Shire Council on Friday, September 20, and is managed by Millner Properties Group. Both families agree the development was “not in keeping with the residential nature of Tumbulgum”. “We have a range of concerns from flooding and sewage management, which is onsite according to the plans,” she said. Community feedback on the development is open until Friday, January 17, and both families are encouraging residents to have their say on the development. Mrs Webster also took issue with the proposed operating hours of 7am to 10pm, seven days a week. “We are concerned about the impact this will have on noise levels for our quiet community, also the impact of home valuation having this at our back door,” Mrs Webster told The Weekly. “The road design will impact on an already busy road that claims victims on a regular basis on Tweed Valley Way.” The Weekly took the residents’ concerns to Millner Property Group for comment and was provided a comprehensive response. Among the first issues raised was concerns the sewerage system could be too close to neighbouring homes and create a hazard during a flood. A Millner Property Group spokesperson said the sewerage system location is the highest natural point of the site and allows the structures themselves to be separated from residents.

The spokesperson stressed the planned sewerage system is a “commercial grade and high-quality system that has been designed by local industry professionals and specialists HMC”. “This system is completely closed and treats effluent to meet all Australian Standards for dispersing treated water over the (mainly) citrus tree area (which is raised to ensure it is impacted by flood),” the spokesperson said. “Water is dispersed through underground piping (drip irrigation) so there is no build-up of treated water or spraying of water above ground. “The underground system ensures no impact regarding air odour or quality is associated.” Further to this concern, Millner Property’s spokesperson said the sewage system is a “closed system” and will be regularly maintained to ensure it functions properly. “In any flood event it will not leak as the treatment tank of the system is designed to be submerged without leaking or fault, while the “application area” is flood free (ie; it will be raised above the one in 100 year flood level),” the spokesperson said. “The “workers cottage – stage 2” as shown on the plans, will be connected to Council reticulated sewer separately.” Residents also raised concerns the property could impact the quiet amenity of their homes and wider Tumbulgum community. However, the Millner Property Group spokesperson said the site would actually provide a pedestrian connection to the heart of the village

Several Tumbulgum families are concerned a proposed development could change the quiet village and rural lifestyles.

and contain vehicle movements to the site. “Pedestrian connections provide opportunity for patrons to walk into the heart of the village and also experience the Tumbulgum Pub, House of Gabriel and the conservation architecture that Tumbulgum is currently renowned for,” the spokesperson said. “The site access is from Riverside Drive only and ensures vehicle movements and vehicle impact is contained within the site and not through the low-density residential areas adjoining. “The proposal confines vehicle access to Riverside Drive to ensure vehicle movements on local streets are minimised and ensure no adverse amenity impacts to the broader village road network.” Millner Property wanted to emphasise that the site coverage of the built form (sheds) is “very minimal” at 3.5 per cent of the total site. Concerns were also raised around the proposed operating hours from 7am to 10pm, seven days per week. “The proposed operating hours for the site consider the wide range of

uses and operations envisioned,” the Millner Property spokesperson said. “Although some uses may only operate standard business hours, other operators (such as the café/ restaurant) have expressed their support to be able to operate longer hours. “These hours cover the standards agricultural, café/restaurant and ancillary operations while not limiting the flexibility and range of uses, particularly at different times of the year such as through daylight savings when there is still daylight after 9pm and operations may want to utilise the scenic setting.” In closing, Millner Property wanted to emphasise that the development application has been designed to; “integrate with the Tumbulgum Village”. “We are not seeking to do anything other than what is allowed uses under the zoning for this site,” the spokesperson said. “We are not doing anything unconventional or controversial in terms of allowed uses and zoning. “We have worked hard to provide a great community and visitor destination and to mitigate against the site’s major constraints.”

By Jonathon Howard SEVERAL TUMBULGUM families are vowing to fight a proposed development on vacant land at the corner of Riverside Drive and Tweed Valley Way (northern end), which they say could impact the quiet charm of Tumbulgum through increased traffic, event noise as well as flooding concerns. The concerns have been raised as the deadline for community comment on the 2.96-hectare development application, at Lot 100 Riverside Drive, closes on Friday, January 17. Tumbulgum residents Chantel and Martin Webster, Hannah Taylor and Tim Rushton met with The Weekly recently at their homes on Bawden Drive to discuss their concerns (pictured). M r s Ta y l o r h a s l i v e d i n Tumbulgum for the past five years and has spent two years in their current family home adjacent to the proposed development. Mrs Webster has also spent the past two years in Bawden Drive and many years in Tumbulgum and is Chantel’s neighbour. “The first I heard about the property development was that it would be only approved by council for one house,” Hannah said. The application outlines a twostage development of several structures under the title of “The Junxion” and includes a restaurant/ café, rural industry, industrial retail outlet, garden centre and plant nursery. Stage two of the total $600,000 project includes the construction of a raised house on the site.

“Also we are now using a range of new technologies making it quicker and easier to detect non-compliance than ever before – satellite imagery, drones, and ultra-sonar devices to measure dam size,” he said. “Don’t wait until NRAR visits you – act now to make sure you know the rules and conditions on your approvals and licences, and ensure you are complying with them.” “Officers will check how water users monitor their water take, that any cease-to-pump conditions are being complied with, and approvals are current,” Mr Abood said. “This will help prevent future noncompliance by ensuring water users are aware of their obligations and comply with them.” NRAR will continue to engage with the industry and community throughout this campaign. NRAR’s investigators and compliance officers travel all over the state’s 58 water sharing plan areas, inspecting properties and assessing compliance with water users’ licences and the Water Management Act 2000.

Water inspectors to visit North Coast

By Jonathon Howard THE NATURAL Resources Access Regulator (NRAR) has launched a campaign to inspect water pumps this week visiting farms and businesses across the North Coast during January and February. NRAR’s compliance officers are undertaking proactive inspections focusing on cease-topump conditions – on holders of approvals and water access licences which have been triggered by low flows in watercourses, expired approvals and horticulture operations. Director Regional Water Regulation (East) Gregory Abood said the Northern Rivers is a high priority area for NRAR, and officers are targeting potentially unauthorised water extraction in 12 local council areas in the region. “In the current extreme drought and bushfire conditions, ensuring fair sharing of available resources is more critical than ever,” Mr Abood said. He said NRAR selects sites for inspection based on compliance history, local knowledge, satellite imagery and water account records.

“I don’t dispute climate change, the climate has always been changing, but I agree there’s increasing carbon in the atmosphere that needs to be addressed. “The Tweed Shire’s biggest asset is its water, which will be in high demand in the next 20 to 30 years. “I believe this is a problem we’re going to have, not a problem we currently have.” Mr Hawken said the Tweed’s available water supply at Clarrie Hall Dam will come under greater demand from a growing population locally and from South East Queensland. “Forward planning needs to be done at local and state levels to address shortages in water,” he said. Finally, Mr Hawken said he believes the raising of Clarrie Hall Dam is a good idea, but he emphasised the need to explore Byrrill Creek Dam. “The Clarrie Hall Dam has a small catchment area and I believe the raising of this dam is a band aid fix when compared to the catchment potential of Byrrill Creek Dam, which is like comparing a carport roof catching water to entire house roof,” he said. “I think the second dam is something we need to explore and soon.” YOUR THOUGHTS: Do you believe the Tweed Shire needs a second dam at Byrrill Creek, or do you believe the raising of Clarrie Hall Dam should address the need for more water?

By Jonathon Howard INCREASINGLY DRY conditions continue to grip the Tweed Shire and Northern NSW with farmers bracing for another tough year ahead and mounting fears the Tweed’s water supply could soon become hot property. The Weekly spoke with Tweed Canegrowers’ Association President Robert Hawken recently to find out more about the challenges facing local farmers and the future of water usage. Mr Hawken said the Tweed Shire’s biggest asset is its water supply and he’s concerned Tweed’s water could end up in high demand in the coming decades. The Tweed Valley received around 12mm of rain from Sunday, January 12, but not enough to help the Clarrie Hall Dam which is now hovering around 68.8 per cent capacity at the time of print. Rain is forecast for this week but is unlikley to break the drought. Mr Hawken said the amount of water needed for cane farmers was beginning to ease in January and once established the cane’s reliance on Council water should reduce. “In a months’ time the need for water from cane farmers will decrease significantly as the cane establishes itself,” he said. “Once the cane grows to around a metre, it will shade the ground and assist in retaining the soil moisture.” Mr Hawken said canegrowers were still using Tweed Shire Council water, but the amounts were small when compared to individual ratepayer usage. “The showers around Christmas and more recently were welcomed,” Mr Hawken said. “But a lot more is still needed to break the drought and top up the dam.” Mr Hawken said although the cane farming industry was resilient and could withstand some tough drought conditions, he remains concerned for the distant future. “I think climate change, if we accept it, is going to produce greater extremes,” he said.

Exclusive: Your 2020 guide to Tweed Shire real estate

By Jonathon Howard THE TWEED Shire real estate market is likely to continue to run hot in 2020 with a range of attractive prices across the Tweed Valley while several Tweed Coast suburbs continue to grow at rapid rate. Banora Point was the strongest performing suburb for units with 6.6 per cent growth in the past year, while units in the coastal suburbs of Casuarina, Pottsville, Bogangar and Kingscliff all experienced an easing over the past 12 months. Kingscliff houses remain the strongest growth market across the Tweed with a whopping 14.6 per cent growth in the past 12 months and shows little signs of easing. House price growth was also seen at Tweed Heads South (5.1 per cent), Bilambil Heights (4.3 per cent) and Casuarina (3.9 per cent). Now is an ideal time for first-home buyers to purchase a home in the Tweed Valley, with Uki, Murwillumbah, Nunderi and Terranora all experiencing a reduction in the median price during the past 12 months. First-home buyers looking to take advantage of the Federal Government’s First Home Loan Deposit Scheme will not have many options as the scheme is capped at $450,000 in NSW regional areas but will open the door to unit options. The government scheme guarantees first-home buyers with a deposit as low as a five per cent without having to pay lender’s mortgage insurance. A total of 3,000 first-home buyers out of 10,000 have already registered for the scheme in 2020. The Weekly has again contacted some of the Tweed’s best local real

estate agents to provide readers with a valuable insight into the Tweed Shire real estate market including tips to sell and their outlook for 2020. F i r s t N at i o n a l Re a l E s t at e Murwillumbah Estate Agent Anne Besgrove said the Tweed Shire is a unique location and therefore the real estate market has remained solid. “Buyers come from all regions to our lovely valley,” she said. “Prices for properties in our local valley have remained constant and not dropped unlike major cities such as Sydney. “Our valley is the valley of contrasts having a range of homes from new builds to Queenslanders and original homes. “The surrounding villages of Uki, Stokers Siding, Nobbys Creek, Burringbar, Tyalgum, Chillingham and Crystal Creek to name a few - offer beautiful lifestyle acreage properties for those looking to have a horse, an orchard and vegie garden, livestock or self-sufficient lifestyles and incomes.” Ms Besgrove is a rural specialist having owned and run cattle farms on the Tweed for the past 30 years. She said choosing your real estate agent is the first and most important step in selling. “It’s vital that you can place trust in your real estate agent to work in your best interests and not just to get a quick sale,” she said. “I pride myself in being honest and working hard for both my sellers and buyers and as a result a lot of my business is referral based.” Ms Besgrove said she was “very positive” about the outlook for real estate in 2020 in the Tweed Valley.

“We live in a beautiful part of the world, it’s no wonder people want to live here,” she said. “I’ve been employed by First National Murwillumhah for the last 10 years, offering a lot of experience and knowledge in the marketplace, if you would like a free appraisal or looking to sell your home please contact me for further assistance.” Elders Tweed Valley Principal Craig Dudgeon said the previous quarter was as expected with the traditional “selling season” experiencing lots of activity and great results achieved. “Prices held firm due to the shortage of stock,” Mr Dudgeon said. “Lots of purchasers have been pushed out of other areas such as Byron Shire, making the move further north. “Mullumbimby, Ocean Shores and Brunswick Heads residents are a large percentage of purchasers currently in the Tweed Shire.” Mr Dudgeon said horse and lifestyle properties were the number one most sought after properties, but all properties were in high demand leading up to Christmas. “Investors and first-home buyers are back in force and that $450,000 to $500,000 bracket has loads of competition,” he said. “Anything along the Tweed Coast is performing well with results at record levels.” Mr Dudgeon said his top tip for sellers is “present your property for sale”. “Go that extra mile to get your property looking its best, you don’t need to go spending heaps of money,” he said.

Climate Crisis!

advertisement

Your House is on FIRE!

For years we have ignored the warnings of science telling us that global warming caused by human activity is the largest pending threat to civilisation, the environment and ultimately life on Earth. Lack of action or political will to arrest this pending catastrophe has resulted in the arrival of irreversible tipping points in our climate system. What is a tipping point? Imagine your mate forgot to put the handbrake on in his car and it starts to roll very slowly down the driveway. No worries, he can walk over and jump in and stop it any time. However he waits to see if it will stop by itself, because gravity is not real, just a theory made up by greenies. Eventually it picks up speed on the steep part of the driveway. Suddenly you know he cannot run fast enough to stop his car and it rolls into the path of a truck and explodes into flames. The tipping point became inevitable the moment your mate could no longer stop the car. Yet there was a time lapse between this realisation and when it hit the truck.

Exclusive: Your 2020 guide to Tweed Shire real estate “An abundance of buyers and limited stock, although we do believe that buyers should have a bit more to choose from. We do expect it to still be a seller’s market.” P Smith & Son Real Estate Principal Paul Leslight and Sales Agent Sonja Pfister-Skeen said the current Murwillumbah and surrounding markets “remain strong”. “This is a ref lection of a combination of contributing factors such as supply and demand along with record breaking low interest rates, with talk of further cuts,” Mr Leslight said. “The investors we are seeing; both mum and dads along with commercial grade investors, know that they will gain a higher percentage return in bricks and mortar than funds being held in banks. “Borrowing is cheaper in the residential sector – lowest interest rates in history combining with incredibly high rental demand and excellent returns.” Ms Pfister-Skeen said the median rental return for a four-bedroom home in Murwillumbah is $520 per week and three-bedroom homes are returning around $450 per week. “Rental returns on units in the area range from $350 per week to $400 per week for two and three bedrooms consecutively.” Mr Leslight said buyers are coming from all parts of the country with budgets ranging from $350,000 up to $1,000,000. “A l t h o u g h w e a r e i n a n environment of dealing with climate change and drought crisis, the

Tweed has received a hard knock, however, in comparison to other areas the blow has not been quite as devastating and has not had an impact on the 2484 property prices,” he said. “Rural lending is tough; for larger land holdings up to and over 150 acres some banks are asking for a 40 to 50 per cent deposit. “Vacant rural lending is even harder. In saying that, we are still getting asking price or very close to it within one to two weeks of the commencement of market campaigns. “Furthermore, buyer confidence is strong as the December / Christmas period was the busiest we have seen in 10 years.” Ms Pfister-Skeen said the hot tips for 2020 is for sellers to remember that “a first impression is a lasting impression”. She also emphasised a realistic price point. “Gone are the days of over-pricing; you want the best price along with

the best terms and conditions of sale and choosing the best agent. This is a huge commitment,” she said. “I believe that the market will continue to stay strong until the end of the financial year; then slightly taper off. This of course is governed by the world and local economy. “I think it’s time that we should all be grateful that we have the opportunity to live in undoubtedly the best part of the world. Where else can you live that offers the best beaches in one direction and lush, protected rainforest in the other. The 2484 region can only be described as God’s country.” Raine & Horne Murwillumbah Licencee Jason Dittmar said the fourth quarter of 2019 experienced strong growth in the property market which was a continuation of the upsurge the market experienced following the Federal election. “Strengthening sales through auction results from Sydney have resulted in a competitive environment where buyers are not

“If you’re thinking of selling in 2020 start now doing the things you know you’ve talked about but haven’t quite got around to. It will make the difference.” Mr Dudgeon said his outlook for 2020 is “very positive”. “If you have been lucky enough to own property in this beautiful region you can understand why everyone wants to live here,” he said. “Limited listings and continued interest will keep our investments performing well. “I get asked a lot “when is the best time of year to sell”, looks like 2020 is also proving to be a great time.” DJ Stringer Principal David Stringer said the Tweed Shire has remained relatively unchanged over from the previous quarter and remains a strong market for investment and lifestyle. “Buyers are gravitating towards homes under $600K and acreage property up to $1.25 million, investors are still in the market looking for duplexes and units around $450K,” Mr Stringer said. Mr Stringer said anyone looking to sell in 2020 needs to pay attention to the exterior. “Prepare you property well, declutter, pay special attention to the exterior of the property as that is the window to your home and appoint the best agent that has extensive experience and can relate to all demographics of buyers,” he said. Mr Stringer’s outlook for 2020 is likely to be a “stellar” year for the Tweed. “The market in 2020 is likely to continue its stellar form from 2019,” he said.

Tweed Shire Councillors eager to gain votes in election year By Jonathon Howard CAMPAIGNING FOR the 2020 Tweed Shire Council elections are expected to get underway in the coming months with The Weekly getting in early to find out more about our incumbent candidates in part two of our Q&A with current councillors continuing this week. Last Thursday, January 9, edition, The Weekly spoke with Mayor Katie Milne, Cr Ron Cooper and Cr Reece Byrnes with the remaining four councillors giving their views this week. The Weekly put several questions to current councillors to determine their intentions to run this year and to find out their campaign commitments and hopes for Tweed in 2020. Cr James Owen said he will nominate with the NSW Liberal Party for endorsement to run in this year’s Tweed Shire Council election on Saturday, September 12.

Cr James Owen

Cr Owen said some of his hopes for the Tweed Shire in 2020 include maintaining hope for rain and working alongside fellow councillors for the betterment of the shire and reducing the “control of the Green/ Labor block”.

Cr Owen listed his hopes for the Tweed Shire below and his plans to achieve those hopes. “Rain – not much I can do about it but let’s hope we get rain soon – it’ll come,” he said. “Drought contingency – ensure we have contingencies in place to minimise the adverse impacts and inconvenience to the community if it doesn’t rain and we run out of water. “This includes ensuring that a larger link to the Gold Coast’s water supply is built as soon as possible. “Continue to work to ensure Tweed’s medium and long-term water supply is assured by ensuring the work to raise the wall of Clarrie Hall Dam continues unabated and looking at long term solutions including the potential of building a second dam at Byrrill Creek. “To be able to work alongside fellow councillors for the betterment of the shire and to reduce the control of the current Green/Labor block to ensure Council focuses on, and dedicates our budget and resources, to core business including water and wastewater, roads, rubbish and recycling, parks and recreation, events, libraries and business growth and development. “Support and advocate for Tweed businesses - particularly small and medium sized family businesses – to help them grow and prosper. See significant growth in our tourism industry. “I’ll continue to work with my state and federal colleagues to ensure Tweed gets its fair share of investment and support from the NSW and Federal Governments. “I’ve recently been appointed to NSW Liberal Party Rural and

Regional Committee which will give me increased opportunity to advocate for our region. “This includes working to ensure that the NSW Government commits to making Tweed the location for a Special Activation Precinct – a thriving business hub that will provide jobs through state government investment and support. “Continue to support local business where possible – the backbone of our community. “Cast your democratic vote in September 2020 for who you think is best placed to lead Tweed to a prosperous, healthy and thriving future.” Councillor Pryce Allsop said he’s eager to run in the 2020 council elections and feels there’s “many community concerns that require work”.

Cr Pryce Allsop

“I’d like to wish to all members of the community a very happy New Year,” he said. “It’s without doubt we all wanting to wish the best to fellow Aussies battling the current fires and battling through drought conditions.” Cr Allsop said among his priorities is representing rural landowners who he said are awaiting assistance in

resolving issues they have had with the Draft Rural Land Strategy (RLS). “Many landowners are determined to see changes in the formation of the Draft RLS and I would like to support these efforts for greater outcomes and solutions,” he said. Cr Allsop said he was also eager to steer away from political rivalries. “I have had the fortune of reading the other councillor’s messages to the public and whilst I respect their perceptions, I believe we need a less political approach for better local outcomes,” he said. “Playing political games might buy political favours down the track, I don’t believe it to be the best way to provide good outcome for our Tweeds communities. “I plan to be a voice of reason and provide debate and argument, contribute to create sound and rational decision making. “Whilst as councillors we represent all Tweed’s residents, we need to look long and hard at our vision and planning. “Businesses in Tweed need to be supported and it is an essential ingredient for a councillor to cares about Tweed’s economic growth and creation of opportunities.” Cr Allsop said Tweed’s rural landowners have big issues with policy that surrounds the removal of camphor laurel. “The Tweed’s waterways are being damaged and continue to be impacted by the effects of camphor laurel trees,” he said. “The rivers, streams and natural wildlife are being impacted by this introduced species of tree

and current policy is allowing the proliferation of this noxious weed.” Cr Allsop also referred to Cr Cooper’s concerns around high rises. “I respect the feelings of the community regarding high rise, but Tweed Shire Council was not proposing high rise,” Cr Allsop said. “Council planning staff recommended a height limit of 13.6 metres prior to Cr Cooper’s amendments to the Kingscliff locality plan, limiting heights to 11.6 metres. “I personally support Council’s original height limits as I believe that 13.6 meters would allow for slightly greater density and would better suit our ageing population’s needs, looking at the current demographics. “Four storeys would likely result in more buildings having elevators and allowing our aged locals to have greater accessibility to more real estate products.” Cr Allsop said he has a desire to “curb the current council’s hefty legal spending”. “But this won’t be easily fixed unfortunately, we spend a lot of time and money fighting ill-fated cases in the Land and Environment Court,” he said. “The next election will show or confirm our community’s feeling about this current council.” Cr Allsop extended a “thank you” to Tweed Shire Council staff for their hard work in winning many grants. He’s also eager to commence the development of Tweed’s rail trail from Murwillumbah to Crabbes Creek. (Continues page 20)

Tweed Valley Weekly Locals Supporting Locals

Tweed Shire Councillors eager to gain votes in election year (continued) COUNCILLOR CHRIS Cherry said she’s eager for re-election in September 2020 and has a range of areas she’s focusing.

Cr Chris Cherry

“For 2020, I am looking forward to moving the Draft Rural Land Strategy forward so the great actions that have been set in motion can finally come to fruition and we can support a thriving agritourism focus in the shire,” she said. “I think our community really values buying local and we have so many good agricultural start-ups and established businesses that can provide that product that we need to foster through the strategy actions.” Cr Cherry said she is concerned about proposed changes to the flight paths for Gold Coast Airport. “I will fight strongly to protect the rights of residents to have the noise levels in and around their homes minimised,” she said. “I am attending a workshop on this early in the year.” She also remains concerned about the PFAS contamination issues for

groundwater around the airport within Tweed. “This is a concern and I will be following up on the testing of these resources so that those living next to the airport can have confidence to use their bores,” she said. “The bushfires have shown us how vulnerable we are and I would like Council to work with the Rural Fire Service (RFS) to help educate people about how we can best prepare our homes, particularly those in rural areas, for the bushfire threat of the future. “The drought obviously impacts on each and every one of us and so I will be supporting the fullsteam ahead approach by Council to the raising of Clarrie Hall Dam, which will triple our water holding capacity.” Cr Cherry said another thing Council is implementing is a link through to South-East Queensland water. “This will remove our single water source vulnerabilities and provide a two-way connection to work more collaboratively with Gold Coast Council,” she said. “To have the Council surveys come back showing 87 per cent of residents are satisfied with Council’s actions was heartening in 2019, but I will in no way take that as a sign to sit back. “We all just need to be the best that we can be because we are all in this together.” Last, but not least, is long-time local and current councillor Warren Polglase who said he’s putting his

name forward again after 24 years as a local councillor. Cr Polglase said he believes the Tweed Shire needs to focus on drawing investment and investors to the Tweed Shire.

Cr Warren Polglase

All seven Tweed Shire Councillors are eager to run in 2020

“We are seeing major wholesalers and retailers such as Lawrence & Hanson has recently left the Tweed and Harris Scarfe are wrapping up soon at Tweed City,” he said. “When you see major retailers leaving the Tweed, we need to be asking what we’re doing to attract and keep this sort of investment. “That something that all goes back to the majority of councillor’s decisions.” Cr Polglase also highlighted council’s legal bills for court cases, which he said were costing ratepayers one million dollars per year for the past three years. “With both wins and loses - but this has to stop,” he said. “Investors look closely at these figures and it frightens them away

and I believe there needs to be a major change in that area.” Cr Polglase also highlighted the Tweed Shire’s economic growth rate has slumped to one per cent and had fallen from three per cent in early 2000. “I’m eager to see Tweed’s growth return and with it positive investment to keep the shire strong,” he said. Cr Polglase said he does not believe local ratepayers will support major party campaigning in local government. “ I h av e a l w ay s r e m a i n e d independent despite making it well-known that I’m a Nationals Party member, I’m not running as a Nationals member I’m independent,” he said. “ M y wh o l e fo c u s i n l o c a l government has been about jobs

and growth for the Tweed Shire, something I believe is lacking and the Tweed is missing out.” Cr Polglase said he is also concerned by the future of Tweed’s water security and will push hard to get the Clarrie Hall Dam redevelopment up as soon as possible. “We have the same capacity in the dam as we had in 2002, but there are now 40,000 more people in the Tweed relying on the dam’s water,” he said. “Water security will be under stress all the time and water is the Tweed’s driver for economic growth.” Cr Polglase said he had a successful career in local government and he’s looking forward to continuing.

SET NO LIMITS Celebrating Seniors

Warning over bushfire appeal scams

Daphne still loving life at 104 years old By Jonathon Howard BOLTON CLARKE Darlington, Banora Point, resident Daphne Woods (pictured above) was keeping a close eye on the summer tennis as she celebrated her 104th birthday on Wednesday, January 8. The keen tennis player and fan was born in Katoomba, NSW, to Alexander and Augusta Walker in 1916 on the day the last British troops evacuated Gallipoli during World War I. She had twin sisters, Violet and Thelma Jane who have passed away.

The family moved frequently as Alexander was a train driver. Daphne attended primary school in Bathurst before completing her schooling at Homebush Girls High School. Later, she worked as a machinist in a Sydney clothing factory, marrying husband Oliver Woods in the years immediately following World War II. She retired at 61 and pursued tennis, gardening and socialising with friends. The Weekly visited Daphne following her birthday for a chat and photoshoot. “I’ve had a great life,” she said.

“I’ve always kept to the idea of not having anything in excess, but I have enjoyed a drink in my life.” Mrs Woods also says enjoying life and ensuring you always have a smile helps aid in a lengthy life. “You have to see the bright side of life,” she said. Daphne has lived at Darlington for the past 10 years and these days enjoys reading with her friend Nona and watching activities around the community. She celebrated her birthday with her niece and nephew and friends at a special morning tea event.

NSW POLICE have warned the public and especially seniors to be on the alert for scam bushfire fundraising appeals. A police spokesperson said scammers are pretending to be well-known charities, creating their own charity names, and impersonating people negatively impacted by the bushfires. “Scammers are cold-calling, direct messaging and creating fake websites and pages on social media to raise funds,” the spokesperson said in a media release. “Do not donate via fundraising pages on platforms that do not verify the legitimacy of the fundraiser or that do not guarantee your money will be returned if the page is determined to be fraudulent. “Be careful about crowdfunding requests as these may be fake and also come from scammers. Check the terms and conditions of funding platforms and ensure you are dealing with official organisations. If you are unsure, make your donation to an established charity instead. “If you are donating to an established charity or not-forprofit organisation, ensure it is registered and that you are on its official website by searching the Australia Charities and Not-for-profits Commission Charity Register. “If you think you have paid money to a scammer, please contact your bank immediately.” According to Scamwatch, there have been several types of scams spring up in response to the bushfires which include: • Calls and text messages impersonating businesses or government organisations seeking ‘donations’ that they will be sending on to well-known charities. • Business email compromise scams where the scammer impersonates a high level employee in a business claiming the business will be making a donation. • Individuals on social media and crowdfunding sites claiming to be fundraising where it is dubious that the money raised will actually be donated. • Impersonation of real charities via calls, text, and even in person through door to door charity appeals. • Individuals claiming to be relatives of those affected by the bushfires seeking donations. People can make a report on the Scamwatch website or find more information about where to get help or call 1300 795 995 to report these scams.

Nutritious meals for older Australians

There is no question that, regardless of their condition, most of our elderly citizens would like to remain living in their own home and put off the dreaded move to a “nursing home” for as long as they possibly can. While the majority will strive to maintain their independence, many seniors will require a certain level of assistance to allow them to stay safe and healthy in their homes. Aged care workers, as well as family carers, play an incredibly important role in helping their clients or loved ones with any number of tasks related to daily living. From domestic cleaning, to helping with showering and getting dressed, or, administering medication – carers play an integral part in ensuring that the elderly are able to remain living independently in their own homes for longer. But providing care to this age group is no mean feat, especially for their loved ones who may have taken it on as a full time job. It can come with a lot of responsibilities and considerations – including proper meal management to ensure the senior has a wholesome and nutritious diet.

Malnutrition, due to a lack of eating healthy and well-balanced meals each day, commonly leads to a rapid decline in health in older Australians.

HEALTHY EATING MADE EASY

For optimal health and wellbeing, especially in people aged over 65, foods high in protein, energy, and nutritional value are of great importance. Many carers are turning to Gourmet Meals home delivery for the ideal solution. Gourmet Meals offers a varied menu filled with great tasting meals that are nutritionally balanced, individually portioned, and, easy to prepare, eliminating the need for shopping, cooking and cleaning up. Our meals do not contain any added preservatives, artificial flavours and colours, and are 100% gluten free. Seniors can now stay at home where they want to be, and, with the care they need and access to wholesome and healthy meals delivered right to their doorstep, their independence is secured for longer. Check out our menu today to discover the wide range of meals on offer.

Today is the oldest you’ve ever been and the youngest you’ll ever be again

First Aid with Fay Gleave: Diabetic and asthma emergencies

Diabetic emergency

Diabetes is caused by a disorder of the pancreas. The pancreas produces insulin to convert sugar into energy. In diabetes the insulin production and function are impaired. A person suffering from diabetes is either Type 1 or Type 2. Type 1 sufferers need insulin to survive Type 2 need dietary control medication and may also need insulin. We have two types of diabetic emergencies: very low blood sugar (hypoglycaemia or ‘hypo’) or very high blood sugar (hyperglycaemia). The one we are most likely to come across to assist is hypoglycaemia which can progress quickly.

Signs and symptoms of Hypoglycaemia

Hunger, feeling tired and unwell, sweating, shaking, faintness, irritable. This may progress to slurred speech, confusion, loss of consciousness and seizures Diabetics having a hypo have often been thought to be drunk.

Treatment

Help the patient to sit or lie in a position of comfort. Reassure them. Give the patient sugar such as soft drinks, fruit juice, honey or jellybeans. Continue giving sugar every 15 minutes until patient recovers. Then give something to eat like a sandwich, fresh or dried fruit, biscuits and cheese. If no improvement or patient becomes unconscious call triple zero (000) and place patient in recovery position. Stay with the patient. Hyperglycaemia develops more slowly and can make a person ill over a few days or weeks.

Signs and symptoms of hyperglycaemia

Excessive thirst, tiredness, hot and dry skin, smell of acetone on breath.

Treatment

If patient has their medication, ask them if they need help to administer it. Only help if requested. Encourage patient to drink water and seek medical help if symptoms worsen. If unsure whether the patient has low or high blood sugar, give them a drink containing sugar as giving any form of sugar

can save a patient’s life if the blood sugar is low and won’t cause undue harm if the blood sugar is high.

Asthma

Asthma can occur anytime in a person’s life. Some people have asthma as children and are on an Asthma Plan to help them, but others may not develop asthma until later in life. An asthma emergency is potentially lifethreatening.

Triggers

Exercise, respiratory infections, allergies such as (pollen-food) change in weather, anxiety, dust and smoke. Symptoms are a soft to a loud wheeze; not always present, persistent cough and difficulty in breathing, pale and sweating, blue around the lips. A patient suffering from asthma can breathe air in but has difficulty in exhaling. The air passages of the lungs go into spasm and become narrower. Excess mucus and swelling are produced, causing the person to have difficulty breathing.

Treatment

Get the patient to sit down in a comfortable position usually sitting upright, ensure they have plenty of fresh air and undo any tight clothing. If over breathing help them to slow down their breathing by being calm and reassuring If requested help them to follow their asthma plan by following the 4:4:4 plan

Shake the puffer, use spacer if available Give four puffs one at a time and after each puff the patient will take four breaths before administering the next puff until the four puffs have been given. Waits four minutes. If no improvement, give another four puffs. If still no improvement call triple 000 and keep giving four puffs every four minutes until ambulance arrives. If patient does not have their inhaler with them use another person’s inhaler or one from a first aid kit to assist patient in a severe asthma attack. This can be a life-threatening situation so get help quickly.

Our residents and volunteers at McKenzie want to help in any way they can, so they have teamed up with a WIRES donation initiative. WIRES has been rescuing and caring for wildlife for over 30 years and is the largest wildlife rescue organisation in Australia. There have unfortunately been many orphaned Joeys that have come into care due to the fires. The WIRES carers are always in need of suitable pouches, (preferably hand knit so they are breathable) so that the Joeys can be kept warm and quiet. So, along with many of our other homes, Heritage Lodge have started furiously knitting mittens for Koalas, and pouches with sewn cotton or flannelette

“McKenzie Resident, Iris” inserts for orphaned Joeys. We are boxing these up to send to the WIRES organisation, so that they can continue to care for our native wildlife. If you would like to get involved, you can download the factsheet from wires.org.au.

New change rooms at Rabjones Oval

Tina Spence and her daughters Shannon, Alana and Kendyl who are also nurses.

Daughters follow in nursing veteran’s footsteps TWEED HEADS resident Tina Spence started nursing training more than 40 years ago and she still turns up to work with a smile on her face and no regrets about her choice of profession. Now a Clinical Nurse Specialist at The Tweed Hospital Paediatric Ward, Tina has worked at Tweed for more than 32 years, almost since the very first day the new ward was opened in 1987. Tina’s story is one of many nursing and midwifery stories the Northern NSW Local Health District will be sharing throughout 2020 as they celebrate the World Health Organization’s International Year of the Nurse and Midwife. “I am very lucky to work on a ward I love and enjoy, and I have great colleagues who I can also call my friends,” Tina said. Tina says her nursing story became even more special when all three of her daughters followed her in her footsteps, all taking up nursing and even going on to work at The Tweed Hospital. “To say I am proud is an understatement,” she said. “To think myself and my three daughters have all been employed at The Tweed Hospital is such a great accomplishment.”

Tina admits when she was first offered a job in the Paediatric Ward it was intimidating, having never worked with so many children. Thanks to the supportive environment, Tina excelled in her position and went on to complete a Graduate Certificate in Paediatrics, among other qualifications. She now specialises in the field and has also run several rural paediatric seminars. “I think you’ve just got to give things a go, that’s how I found what I loved doing,” Tina said. “I have been on the same ward for more than 30 years with not a single day of regret.” Tina’s daughter Kendyl has also found the same satisfaction following in her mother’s footsteps. “I already love being a nurse and will be incredibly lucky to find a specialty that I love as much as my mum loves Paediatrics,” Kendyl said. Daughter Alana also fondly recalls her time at The Tweed Hospital. “My favourite working memory is at The Tweed Hospital, working at the same time as my mum, and being recognised as her daughter by all the staff we had grown up around,” Alana said.

By Jonathon Howard MURWILLUMBAH SPORTING clubs including the Murwillumbah Vulcans Junior AFL Club have welcomed the return of new change rooms and storage facility at Rabjones Oval at Elizabeth Street recently. The previous change rooms were burned to the ground by alleged arsonists in June 2017 and left sporting clubs short of valuable facilities. Tweed Shire Council was quick to set up two demountable dongas to serve as temporary change rooms for the sporting clubs as the new facility was constructed. Tweed Shire Council Sports Fields Officer, Gary Bryant, and Council’s Acting Manager for Parks and Active Communities, Murray Smith, attended The Weekly’s photoshoot and said the new facility was a great move. “Construction started mid last year and cost $350,000,” Mr Smith said.

“The original timber building burnt down in 2017 due to alleged arson. “The club was without a change room for several years, but we had some interim change blocks dongas setup.” Vulcans Secretary Tania Macdonald, Vulcans Presdient Mick Cummins and Vulcans Treasurer Lynnette Kee said the new change rooms were already a huge boost the respective local clubs. “It means a vast improvement on what we had and it’s great for the kids and for additional storage,” Mr Cummins said. Mrs Macdonald said the Vulcans club is trying to build for 2020 with kids invited to register with the Vulcans to play AFL now. “Sign on will be Saturday, February 8, and Sunday, February 16,” she said. “We are hosting our sign up on Saturday, February 8, at the Murwillumbah Services Club and on February 16 at Rabjones Oval, check The Weekly for more information. “Our Auskick program is also starting off in March.”

Vulcans AFL Juniors and Vulcans Committee Members are delighted with the new facilities

Mums launch secondhand uniform website By Jonathon Howard A PAIR of local mums have put their heads together to develop an innovative and affordable way to help struggling families to save on school uniform costs. Like many Tweed Shire mothers, Ginny and Jane are working mums that are often spending a lot of their hard-earned cash on their kid’s school uniforms, sports uniforms and equipment, musical instruments, dance wear and the list goes on. Ginny’s said she had a size 11 boys blazer, still in perfect condition, that she paid $250 for and wanted some money back. “I listed it on online via Gumtree and Facebook without any success,” she said. “A school uniform shop wanted to give me a $50 credit to spend in the shop, which was nice, but I really wanted the $50 to spend on other things.” This is where Jane comes in, being the self-confessed ideas person that’s motivated to connect local families, schools and businesses. “Ginny and I needed somewhere to sell secondhand school uniforms,” Jane said. Ginny’s response was “Jane you are a genius and School Uniform Trading was born”. The pair have since launched a website, schooluniformtrading.com.au, where parents can list specific uniforms and convert them into cash. “ We k n ow p a r e n t s a r e bu s y, hardworking and want more money in their wallet, this is why we are here to help,” Jane said. “We’re not trying to take business away from local businesses, which we support, we’re just trying to make some

Jane and Ginny are local mums determined to help struggling families cope with school uniform costs by converting old items to cash

of those uniform costs more affordable for parents who are struggling at the moment.” The pair said the response from the public had already been “overwhelming”. “It’s been amazing the need out there,” Ginny said. “There’s a lot of parents that could do with the extra money and they’re jumping at the chance to list their school clothing.”

The website charges a $5 per year membership fee which then allows users to post as many items as they like. “It’s been a great success so far with dozens of items already listed and more on the way,” Jane said. “We really hope this will compliment some families’ budgets and allow them to spend more in other Tweed Shire businesses.” To find out more please visit: schooluniformtrading.com.au

Justine MP calls for climate talk MEMBER FOR Richmond Justine Elliot has welcomed the Prime Minister Scott Morrison’s funding announcements to assist in the bushfire recovery, but she’s also calling for more engaged conversation on climate change. Mrs Elliot described the unfolding bushfire crisis as a “national emergency” which she says requires a national response. “It is tragic that so many lives and properties have been lost,” she said. “Our thanks go to the firefighters who are doing everything they can to protect their fellow Australians. “The government must treat the bushfire crisis as a national public health emergency and develop a comprehensive response to meet the physical and mental health needs of victims.” Mrs Elliot said Labor have called on the Prime Minister to take a serious approach towards climate change. “The Prime Minster should meet with retired fire chiefs who are concerned about climate change,” she said. “We’re also calling on the Morrison Government to convene a COAG (Council of Australian Governments) meeting to develop a comprehensive national response to meet the physical and mental health needs of victims, begin a National Ecological Audit to urgently identify the losses and address the mass destruction to wildlife populations and habitat, and start work now on a national plan to provide financial support for volunteer firefighters.” Mrs Elliot welcomed the $76 million for mental health support to fire victims and those impacted by the recent and current bushfires but remains concerned that some victims are being denied relief payments by Centrelink. “People forced to leave their homes to flee bushfires should not be given the run around by Centrelink,” she said. “The government must fix this issue and ensure Australians who are eligible for these payments receive them.” Another area welcomed by Mrs Elliot was the $60 million to local councils. “We welcome this announcement. It’s important that this money is made immediately available to help local communities recover,” she said. “Local councils are best placed to respond to the immediate needs of their communities and to support local contractors and local businesses. “More funding than this will be required and it’s important the government sits down and listens to local councils to make sure they get the resources they need to rebuild their communities.”

Local legends heart-warming bushfire response Koala deaths prompt appeal

By Jo Kennett TWEED LOCALS have responded with incredible generosity to the bushfire emergency, holding fundraisers for bushfire victims and firefighters. Tweed Coast Raiders secretary Trudy Jameson was part of the fundraiser started by Shell Chinderah Bay owners Paula and Tony Nash and has been working flat out on a massive garage sale and fundraiser at the Raiders Club, which was held on Saturday, January 11, and raised around $5,000. Trudy said it was a “massive group” effort, with volunteers working for a week to prepare for the sale and around 500 happy customers getting a bootload of great bargains on the day. “Everyone has rallied behind this cause and we couldn’t be prouder,” she said. Salty Girls Surf School held fundraising surf lessons on the same day, raising $1,000 cash. “It was amazing that a tribe of women came together to support this,” Salty Girls owner Belen Kimble Fuller said. “We donated vouchers for a sevenweek women’s clinic, and One Sixteenth jewellery, In2Surf Surf School, Modem and DHD Surfboard all donated to the Commons fundraising raffles. “It resonates deeply for me because my father was a fireman and my brother is a captain in a fire brigade in California and I know the risks they take and the impact it has on a personal level.” Jordan O’Brien from Tucker told The Weekly that $33,415 was raised at The Commons Casuarina fundraiser. “It was a group effort with all the businesses at The Commons, organised by Tiffany Cooper at Nikkou,” Mr O’Brien said. “The money was raised through donations and we had a big fundraiser

Fun at the Salty Girls surf school fundraiser. Inset is former Titans star Michael Gordon manning the barbecue at the Raiders fundraiser

Saturday afternoon with raffles and a barbecue with beer donated by Balter. “We charged $5 a beer. The Crafty Cow donated all their profits and they had kegs donated. “There was a ton of people, the place was packed; it felt like a festival. “We had Bronte Eve and her band, and they were awesome. All the meat was donated by Matty at the Meat Merchants as Casuarina. “The funds are going to the NSW RFS, Wires and the Red Cross. “We were ecstatic. There was the best vibe there. “It was awesome we got the turn out. It just made it feel like a great community to live in.”

Christie Bavage, the daughter of Mark and Judy Eglington from Cudgen Rural Fire Brigade, is also donating 100 per cent of the profits from her Dented Diva made-to-order earrings to communities hardest hit this fire season. “Working alongside my father and mother and members of the local brigade, we will drive to the affected areas where our local crews fought tirelessly last year and physically hand over all profits made to as many individuals and families as we possibly can,” Christie said. “We aim to raise $6,000 to help over 100 families and individuals in the Richmond Valley/Northern NSW region.”

By Jonathon Howard THE DEATHS of two koalas on Tweed Coast Road in the past two months has prompted a desperate appeal from members of Team Koala calling on residents to “slow down” and be mindful of struggling wildlife. Team Koala President Jenny Hayes visited The Weekly with tears in her eyes last week hoping to get the word out about the recent road deaths. “As we’ve seen down south, a lot of the stronghold of koala forests are gone. That means the Tweed Valley and Tweed Coast koala populations are now more crucial than ever. However, they’re still struggling with cars which are killing our local koalas on a regular basis,” she said. Ms Hayes said the first koala strike occurred on Tweed Coast Road between Celerywood Drive and Barclay Drive at Casuarina on November 21, 2019. The second koala strike by a vehicle occurred on Christmas Eve (December 24, 2019) further south on Tweed Coast Road. “It is unfortunate that it takes a disaster of such great proportions for the public to understand the threat of koala extinction is so real,” Ms Hayes said. “It cannot be ignored or have its priority reduced, to lose potentially 2,000 Koalas on the North Coast is shocking. “In our region we have a dwindling population of Tweed Coast koalas, Team Koala is always working towards protecting the remaining colonies.” Ms Hayes said the outpouring of support from the community to aid koalas is “heartwarming, but the reality of the decimation of coastal koalas and their habitat is catastrophic”. “There are many ways to help the koalas in our region and elsewhere. Here on the Tweed, Team Koala works all year round at many levels to ensure their continuation in the wild, whereas the fires were unforeseen, other threats can be prevented,” she said. “We also understand the importance of koala safety on roads within our region in particular Clothiers Creek Road and Tweed Coast Road where many koalas have recently died from vehicle strikes. Where we can’t prevent bushfires we can only be reactive, with road safety we are very proactive. “We have produced a Road Safety for Koalas 2020 Calendar which highlights artwork from many local school children, these can be purchased from Team Koala stand at Tweed City or either Kingscliff, Cabarita or Casuarina shops.”

Expect plenty of honesty but no politics at new comedy tour By Megan Albany DESPITE HAVING the first three shows of his comedy tour at Narooma, Batemans Bay and Ulladulla cancelled because of the fires on the South Coast, Jimeoin recently told The Weekly he’s still hoping to give people a good laugh when he performs his new show, Ramble On, at the Twin Towns Services Club on Saturday, January 18 at 9pm. “The first three shows were cancelled because of you know what,” he said. “As if things weren’t bad enough and then I had to pull out; I’m sure they’re devastated that I’m not coming,” he said wryly. While obviously concerned about the suffering caused by the fires Jimeoin said the point of his show is to give people a laugh and a rest from serious news during serious times. “It’s really a flippant show, I try not to get onto heavy subject matters because with the rolling coverage of the fires, the last thing people want is more of that, so I avoid it,” he said. “I don’t talk about pollies or Trump or ScoMo either, I wouldn’t do it socially and I don’t find it in

any way comical so why would I do it on stage? “I tend to joke more about my own shortcomings which there are plenty of, so I never run out of material,” he laughed. Jimeoin said as a comedian the best tool in his toolbox has always been brutal honesty. “Honesty is fantastic, sometimes you don’t need a joke, you just need to be honest,” he said. “We’re all living this life on Facebook and pretending that everything’s wonderful, where in reality we’re all just trying to make ends meet or keep our relationships together.” Even though he has had a hugely successful career, Jimeoin admits that doing stand-up for a living was not originally part of his plan. “Someone else put my name down one night at a pub and so I got up to tell a few jokes but then I got interested in it and I suppose I studied it, I wasn’t going to uni but I was studying it,” he said. “I was watching other comedians and thinking, I like this or I really don’t like that.” His new show focuses on the comedian’s personal, idiosyncratic

observations of everyday suburban life in Australia. “I’m looking for people to find the child in themselves again because the point is there is no point a lot of the time,” he laughed. While his career has led to regular performances on Australian and UK television as well as at leading international comedy festivals, Jimeoin said he doesn’t have a focus on goals or achievements. “I haven’t got a bucket list, I’ve got a f*ck it list,” he laughs. “That’s a list of things that I’m not going to do any more, such as social occasions you can’t be bothered with or repeating the same old experiences.” One thing he is however looking forward to is his performance at Tweed Heads, especially because it’s a border town. “I grew up on a border that they took a lot more serious than they do here,” he said in reference to his Northern Irish heritage. “Considering where I grew up, not talking about politics in my show must be conspiciuous by its absence.” Tickets are $44.

PORTRAIT OF A LADY ON FIRE It is comforting to be able to report two weeks in a row on great films about women made by women, as they are still quite rare - although this should not be the case anymore in our time and age…

The obstacles that women throughout history have had to overcome to become artists and more generally to have freedom of choice in life have been great and many, and this is one crucial theme at the core of the brilliant film Portrait of a Lady on Fire by the French filmmaker Celine Sciamma, recently released nationwide after a string of acclaimed participations in various film festivals - including the Byron Bay Film Festival where some readers may already have seen it.

Mt Warning Shadows by Barb Suttie will be auctioned at a fundraiser

“They represent everything I value in a person in terms of courage and selflessness,” she said. As an artist, she said she is also inspired by the natural beauty of Mt Warning which is the subject of her soon to be auctioned painting. “I love the afternoon and the mystery of the evening, the drama of the shadows - the unknown,” she said. “I adore how the lighting and changing smells as the day moves from day to night.

“I believe this is my tranquility, a magical spotlight to dwell in.” ‘Mt Warning Shadows will be auctioned at the exhibition but for those who can’t attend in person, phone bidding is welcome up until the close of business on Wednesday, January 15. To register a phone bid email art@ artpostuki.com putting ‘Phone Bidding Enquiry’ in the subject line. For more information visit www. suttieart.com or www.artpostuki.com

Celebrate Australia Day with RFS fundraiser at Condong Bowling Club By Jonathon Howard TWEED SHIRE residents are invited to a special Rural Fire Service fundraising event at the Condong Bowling Club on Australia Day, January 26. The event was launched in conjunction with bowling clubs The Condong Galahs, Condong Cane Toads, Condong Women’s Bowling Club and Condong Men’s Bowling Clubs, who are eager to raise as much money as possible to aid hardworking local firefighters. Condong Bowls Club manager Kerry Campbell said she wanted to encourage locals to get behind the event and enjoy Australia Day at Condong. “We have all seen the devastation these fires continue to wreak across the country,” she said. “But we can all do something to help, by supporting our local Rural Fire Service firefighters and getting behind fundraising efforts.”

The special Australia Day fundraiser will include an all-day sausage sizzle, all-day barefoot bowls, two sessions of competitive bowls – 9am for 9.30am with the Condong Canetoads and 12.30pm for 1pm with club bowlers. But the fun doesn’t stop there, with an allday DJ on the green entertaining visitors as well as a jumping castle and face painting for the Kids “Please come along and join us for a short time, or a long time on the day to assist in raising much-needed funds for the RFS,” Mrs Campbell said. “All monies raised on the day will go to the Rural Fire Service to assist these brave volunteers to continue their great work in safeguarding our community.” For more information about the Condong Bowling Club please phone: (02) 6672 2238 or visit the club at Lot 1, McLeod Street, Condong.

The story is somewhat simple: at the end of the 18th century on an isolated island in Brittany a female painter is hired to paint the wedding portrait of a young woman betrothed to an Italian nobleman. The woman is to be married instead of her sister who has died, but she – who was planning to become a nun - is still reluctant to accept the situation and has refused to sit for a portrait. So her mother hires a female painter as a companion for her daughter, so that the painter can observe the young woman, memorize her features and paint her portrait secretly. But the relationship between the two women changes in a matter of days: from wary companions to objects of each other’s gaze, developing a magnetic attraction for each other that culminates in a passionate love affair. But even in the most intimate scenes the emphasis is not on the physical side of their relationship, as if the filmmaker has chosen to look past the superficial in an attempt to capture deeper emotions, because the two women have reached a level of intimacy where they can see each other for who they truly are. And we partake of their beauty and composure and ultimately their pain.

GRAND PRIZE

$1800 83860

By Megan Albany LANDSCAPE ARTIST Barb Suttie is once again putting her art where her heart is by donating her artwork, ‘Mt Warning Shadows to support the work of the NSW Rural Fire Service. The painting will be part of a fundraising mini-auction on Thursday, January 16, at 6.30pm at Art Post Uki, as part of the Eye See I See exhibition by award winning photographer, filmmaker, painter, and clothing designer, Lyn Hope. Ms Suttie, who previously donated sale proceeds from her Art Post solo exhibition to the Uki Fire Brigade, said her experience with fires as a child is part of her motivation to help out in whatever way she can. “As a child growing up in Eltham I remember experiencing the devastation of fire,” Ms Suttie said. “During my childhood I remember the community pulling together. “The positive from devastation like this is there is a great hope in humanity at the ground level. “I believe devastation can bring out the best in people. “Perhaps Australia has been chosen to be the poster child to show resilience to the world and we need to change our priorities towards what is really important and how we treat the planet.” Ms Suttie said she continues to be inspired by the dedication of our volunteer firefighters.

Living and breathing her art By Jo Kennett DESPITE YEARS of illness, Murwillumbah-based artist Robyn Elizabeth has returned to her art practice to present her first solo exhibition Inhale, Exhale, Release, alongside Lismorebased artist Haley Calderon, at Gallery DownTown from Friday January 17 to March 7. “When I first got sick in 2015 I was in a lot of pain and I didn’t know what was wrong with me, I couldn’t even hold a toothbrush let alone a paint brush,” Ms Elizabeth said. “It took two years to get back on my feet as when you have chemo you lose all your creativity because you can’t focus on anything. “A lot of my illness involved me just sitting in a chair unable to do much else. “I started to paint again last year after I went to the gallery and saw a self portrait by Julie Fragar. “I took that as a bit of a sign that I needed to do something again because she was my first year painting teacher and when she first saw my work she said to me, ‘I don’t need to teach you how to paint, you already know.’ “To hear that from someone of her status made me quite chuffed, so seeing her portrait made me realise I’d come through this and I had to paint again,” she said. “It was a very slow process and you’ll see in the exhibition that the works are quite small and my paintings started out as quite dark and then towards the end they started to get lighter and brighter.” For this exhibition, Ms Elizabeth has created a body of work in oil and acrylic using elements of line form and colour.

“I’ve always been a mixed media artist, I used to do charcoal and pencils but at the moment I have peripheral neuropathy which has meant that above my knees to my feet are numb all the time and my hands struggle so I find brush work is much easier which is why I am using paint,” she said. “For me, having an exhibition is a bit like giving your soul, it’s a bit daunting for me because you are exposing yourself and all your inner thoughts. “I paint abstractly and I don’t title my work because I like people to look at it and make their own interpretations. “It’s surprising what people say and the different things that people see.” Due to their extensive support during her illness, Ms Elizabeth is donating all profits from the sale of artwork from Inhale, Exhale, Release, to the Leukaemia Foundation. “Everything goes to the Leukaemia Foundation so I’m hoping to be able to give something back to them for all their support. “For anyone who is going through the same thing, I am also hoping my art will help them see that you can get through this, it is a huge struggle, but you can do it. “I’m a strong believer in art, I definitely think it’s helped me get better.” Gallery DownTown is an annexe of the Tweed Regional Gallery located in the M|Arts Precinct, upstairs at 1 Brisbane Street, Murwillumbah.

Murwillumbah Community Centre Coordinator Amanda Lyndh and Indigenous Programs Coordinator Lara Bennett are hoping for a big turnout at the garage sale on this Saturday

Gigantic garage sale for bushfire victims By Jonathon Howard A FLOOD of donations to the Murwillumbah Community Centre to aid bushfire victims across NSW have led the centre to launch a gigantic garage sale on Saturday, January 18. Community Services Coordinator Amanda Lindh said the garage sale would take place from 8am to 2pm and includes a variety of donated secondhand and new items. “Due to being overwhelmed with physical donations, the bushfire recovery team has stopped taking donated items due to having no storage or distribution points and are asking instead for fuel and food gift cards or cash,” Mrs Lindh said. “In response to this and because our community is so giving the Murwillumbah

Community Centre will be holding a garage sale bushfire fundraiser on Saturday, January 18, from 8am to 2pm to raise money to purchase gift cards for fire victims and communities.” Mrs Lindh said she felt this would be a great way for those that would like to contribute but might not have the funds spare to do so. “If you have any items to donate, please drop them off at the Community Centre,” she said. “All proceeds will be going directly to fire victims with no red tape or administration costs. “Looking for donations of clothing, books, toys and small household items.” To find out more or to donate please phone the Murwillumbah Community Centre on (02) 6672 3003.

By Jonathon Howard M O U N T WA R N I N G To u r s continues to establish itself as a leading tourism operator across the Northern Rivers with the recent arrival of the company’s latest tour boat, Dream Catcher, that’s set to take the Tweed River by storm. Valued at $350,000, Dream Catcher sailed into the Tweed past Duranbah from Burleigh Heads on Saturday, January 11, bringing with it a new way to discover, celebrate and experience the Tweed. Mount Warning Tours owner Michael Simmons said the success of Spirit of Wollumbin and desire for more corporate events and private charters on the river was a driver behind the purchase. “This is a huge step up for Mount Warning Tours,” he said.

By Jonathon Howard THE BIG-HEARTED team at the Tweed Palliative Secondhand Store will host a special fundraising event at the store on Friday, January 17, from 8am. Tweed Palliative Support President Meredith Dennis OAM said the team would be donating the entire day’s takings to support Koalas in Care and Murwillumbah Rural Fire Brigade. “We are hoping for a big turnout of locals and visitors to provide a big cash boost to two worthy local and wildlife causes,” she said. “The need is extremely high and like many businesses and community organisations we want to help in any way possible. “That means cash through donations and purchases either big or small.” Mrs Dennis said the target was around $5,000 and the day will include a cake stall and sausage sizzle. “We really want to encourage everyone to get behind this fundraiser and give our locals and wildlife a boost,” she said. Please note cash purchases only, eftpos is not available. To find out more about the fundraiser visit 5 Queen Street or phone: 0417 060 085.

Meeting Point Counselling Going through some personal challenges? Or just needing help to find your next move? Andy Travis first got interested in counselling when he was 17 and his mother became a Lifeline Counsellor. As an adult, Andy’s personal journey to wellness has included meditation, 12 step addiction recovery, and men’s work. Along with being a great listener and supporting you to make your own decisions, Andy’s qualified in Transpersonal Counselling. Transpersonal means beyond the ordinary sense of self. It’s about helping to you access inner resources that may not be available to you in your ordinary waking

state. For example, if you wish, Andy could guide you through meditation, simple therapeutic hypnosis, or techniques to tune in to your body’s wisdom.

Has Your Hot Water System Been Checked Lately? Ever Heard of a Sacrificial Anode?

2 handy locations - Murwillumbah/Tweed Heads - 38 yrs.exp

A sacrificial anode is a vital part of your water system, and having it inspected can be the difference between an efficiently working system and a costly replacement. Manufacturers recommend that you maintain the anode in your system in order to prevent damage from rust + corrosion. THE ANODE IN YOUR SYSTEM SHOULD NEVER BE ALLOWED TO CORRODE AWAY, WHATEVER TYPE OR BRAND OF SYSTEM YOU HAVE SOLAR, ELECTRIC, GAS OR HEAT PUMPS

Between the Flags ENTRIES FOR the NSW Country Titles and nominations for officials close this weekend. Our Club will again host the carnival over two days on February 1 and . We expect entries will be down on last year’s total of 1400 due to the bushfires, particularly from the South Coast and Far South Coast, (sixteen clubs) many of which have been active and affected by the emergency. Last Sunday the Club had a training session using four of our IRBs in the Water Safety Pilot Programme, where experienced drivers and crew are required to work in the surf zone during the carnival. T h e C l u b ’s a n nu a l m a j o r fundraiser, the car competition, will be drawn on Australia Day, January 26. There are 800 tickets at $50 each with a $15,000 first prize towards a car of choice, a five-night getaway at Paradise Resort, valued at $1,000 for second, and a $500 Rebel Sport voucher third. Tickets are available at the Surf Club and members. Ticket holders are invited to the BBQ and refreshment at the drawing, which is proudly supported

The first to receive it was a group of eleven members in the 1936-37 season. At the present time there are 102 of the Life Members alive. SLS Australia have now given each recipient a number indicating their order of election. Current and past members of Cudgen Headland listed are: Percy Stephens, No. 54, 1952/3; Arther Castleman, No. 68, 1955/6; Keith Kennedy, No. 241, 2004/5; Peter Connell, No. 275, 2016/17; and Paul Kenny, No. 286, 2018/19. The RLSSA Australian Pool Lifesaving Championships were held from January 11 to 13 at the HBF Stadium, Perth with 17-yearold Joseph Warne competing in the U19 age group. He was second in the U19 individual pointscore and results included: 1st Line throw; 2nd Super Lifesaver; 1st SERC (capt) and 2nd CPR. The CPR competition involves a competitor running through the core elements of DRSABCD, patient assessment and performing five cycles of 30 compressions followed

by two breaths on a manikin which assesses compression depth, rate, number of compressions per cycle, ventilation volume and rate. A score for compressions and ventilation is provided from a SimPad linked to the manikin which are added to the patient assessment scores. The SERC (Simulated Emergency Response Competition) tests the initiative, judgement, knowledge and ability of four lifesavers who apply their lifesaving skills to an unknown simulated emergency situation whilst working by as a team. Points are awarded for each teams’ rescue skills in and out of the water, as well as their emergency first aid and casualty care, all within a two minute time limit. A list of members who have to collect medals won at the 2019 Country Championships is posted on the competition notice board. This Sunday Juniors will conduct their Club Championships in all ages.

Holding Shot with Judy Tuckey WELCOME BACK to bowls for 2020. Best wishes for a great year on the greens to all our bowlers. By now most clubs will have resumed their activities following the festive break. Programmes for both the men and women certainly indicate a full-on schedule of exciting tournaments this year. Once again TBDWBA will be hosting the State Pennant Finals, on the calendar for September, at Cabarita, Cudgen Leagues, Kingscliff and Pottsville.

RNSWBA, in conjunction with Bowls Far North Coast Zone One, will be conducting a Club Coach’s course at Ballina from February 10-11. The course is run from 9am to 5pm over the two days and nomination forms are available on www.bowlsnsw.com.au. Members interested, either gender, should not miss this opportunity for training and accreditation. The “silly” season, Pennant, commences in March for both genders with the men kicking off on March 7.

State finals host clubs have been appointed with Grade 1 to be conducted at Forster; Grade 2 – Parkes and Parkes Railways; Grade 3 – NBC Sports and Toongabbie; Grade 4 – Yamba and Maclean; Grade 5 – St. George Basin and Nowra; Grade 6 – Maitland City and Lorn Park with Warilla and TBC hosting the Grade 7 lads. Women’s Pennant should prove interesting in 2020 as this is the first year that the ladies, themselves, have actually been graded. WBNSW has already sent out the players’ gradings to their respective clubs and with a few alterations to teams following

appeals, hopefully, the competition will run smoothly. Whilst not a lot of competitive action on the greens at present, the first comp out of the box this year is the District Men’s Triples commencing this Sunday, January 19. Opens at Pottsville and Reserve and Seniors at Condong. All finals to be conducted at Pottsville. Byron Bay will be holding their Australia Day Pairs on Monday, January 27. Single and team entries accepted. Register 10am, play 10.30am. Entries close Friday, January 24. See you on the greens. Good bowling everyone.

ETHAN EWING has taken out the 2020 Single Fin Classic last weekend, narrowly defeating 2019 Champion Joel Parkinson in the final. A crowd of around 4,000 people watched the final go down, on a great day of surfing. It was a quiet start on Saturday, with almost flat conditions, followed by onshore North-easterly wind blowing up a bit of wind swell in the afternoon. It was a busy day on the point on Saturday, despite the average surf, but a big storm and southerly change on Saturday night ensured some fun waves for finals day on Sunday. Ewing was surfing a board his father bought him as a Christmas present, and he also obtained dispensation from the WSL to surf in the event. He was surfing a late 1970’s Geoff Darby, surfing the board like it had never been surfed before, getting a 10 point ride in his quarter-final, and really looking the goods heading towards the final. Joel Parkinson was looking strong, as was Burleigh ripper Liam O’Brien and his mate Maddy Job, other surfers included former WCT surfer Mitch Crews, Indonesian surfer Oney Anwar, Luke Egan, former World Tour surfer, Brad Gerlach, and soul surfer Luke Hynd. The surf improved as the event headed to the final. First up was the legends Heritage Heat, with Occy grabbing the win from Brad Gerlach, and Luke Egan. The Juniors and the women were ripping in as well. Parko’s Nephew, Ty Richardson, won the Juniors on a 1970’s Free Flight shaped by Phil Myers back in

the day, the board four times the age of the surfer on it. In the Women’s Division, Dimity Stoyle not only won the Women’s division, but took out the most stylish surfer of the event, surfing in a “Flared” wetsuit, surfing with style straight out of the 1970’s. Big wave charger Felicity Palmateer placed 2nd, with Pascha Luc-Light grabbing 3rd place. Then it was the Men’s Open Final. Burleigh surfer, and crowd favourite, Liam O’Brien started with the lead early, with Joel Parkinson hot on his tail. Oney Anwar started well, but then Ethan Ewing grabbed his first wave which he smashed, with that wave the best of the final. Oney Awar found a few waves, Parko came back again, before Ethan Ewing sealed the deal with his second good wave. From the beach it seemed close, but Ewing always looked the goods after that second wave. Ethan Ewing got the win and was stoked, and agreed with Parko and almost everyone else that this is the best event of the year. Parko was second, Anwar 3rd, O’Brien 4th, Luke Hynd 5th, and Mitch Crews in 6th. Ewing won an Ian Byrne shaped single fin, with an awesome spray by Willy Nichols. Once again an awesome event with thousands on Burleigh Point watching the action, despite inclement weather conditions. Next year should be bigger and better.

Hydralyte Pro Junior Series kick off this weekend

The 2020 World Surf League (WSL) Pro Junior Tour is set to kick off on the

Gold Coast this weekend at the first leg of the Hydralyte Sports Surf Series presented by Hyundai. The long-range surf forecast shows a 3-4ft easterly swell heading to the Gold Coast in time for the event, along with northeasterly winds. Some of the country’s best surfers will be competing to gain valuable series points which go toward their series rankings before the event heads to Narrabeen (NSW) in April, followed by Bells Beach (VIC) in September. There is a host of local talent having a crack at this one including Fingal surfer, and under 14 Australian Champion, Dane Henry, just fresh off a great performance at the Woolworths Surfer Gloms mid last week. 2019 men’s event champion Xavier Huxtable from Jan Juc, Victoria is back defending his title on the Gold Coast this weekend. He will have plenty of talent from all over the country to compete against “Last year’s event was awesome,” said Huxtable. “We had some really great waves and I was stoked to get the win. The Pro Junior events are kind of a stepping-stone to the qualifying series - the surfers in the Pro Junior events are definitely on another level. I’m stoked to be heading to the Goldie again, I haven’t been for a while - it looks like we should have some waves.” Guys and girls will be competing, and the 3 event series which will go towards qualifying to the World Junior Titles. Venue of choice will be Duranbah, but with northerlies predicted organisers can use the best waves from the Spit to Duranbah. Catch You in The Waves.

Panthers get the win, Laycock stars for Pottsville Around the Wicket with Jo Kennett

ROUND THREE of the T20 LJ Hooker League on Saturday, January 11, saw Murwillumbah travel to Ballina to take on Tintenbar-East Ballina. Tintenbar batted first, with Blake Burns taking 3/32, Declan Brooks 2/38 and Brent McCloy taking 2/41.Tintenbar finished the 19 overs with 170 runs. In reply the Panthers struggled couldn’t quite catch Tintenbar, with Vinnie Quiqley top scoring on 29 and Brent McCloy not out on 24 for a total of 7/125. Next up the Panthers took on Alstonville with Murwillumbah batting first. Rob Watt opened with 34 but it was a hefty 93 not out from James Agius that gave the Panthers a great start, with the team losing only four wickets for a total of 171 at the end of the 20 overs. Alstonville went into bat, but the openers only managed five runs between them thanks to some great bowling from Kyle Leighton and Blake Burns. Alstonville’s third man to the crease managed a half ton before being taken down by Brent McCloy, who was instrumental in the win, taking 4/24, while Rob Watts took 2/18. That saw Alstonville all out for 143 after 16 overs, a great effort from the Panthers which saw them slide up into sixth position on the T20 ladder. Cudgen played Lismore Workers at Lismore, with Lismore batting first and making 7/134. James Julius took 3/15 and Conor McDowell took 2/15 with Pat Rosser and Damien King getting a wicket each. Cudgen overtook Lismore with only four balls left, with Connor Ziebell top scoring on 54 not out. Cudgen had Lennox Head next, with Lennox batting first and scoring 7/209, thanks largely to 124 runs from Moyle. Tim Spencer, Conor McDowell and James Julius took two wickets each while Alec Williams was the man in the field, taking two catches. In reply Williams opened with 99, bowled by party pooper Hooper and caught by Moyle.

McDowell scored 42 runs as Cudgen fell just short, at 5/202 at the end of the 20 overs. Pottsville captain Jayden Hoare said the first game against Marist Bros went well. “We got 159 and won by about 16 runs. We restricted them to 143. “I got 60, Joe Allan got 26 and Jamie Tripp got 20 not out. “Tait Burns took 3/21 and Ryan McCloy got 3/26. Sabah Syed got 2/26. “The second game against Casino was a wash out. We got 170 runs off our 20 overs and we had them at 2/6 off 2.1 overs. “We went off for lightning and bad light and then it started raining so that was all we could get in. “It was disappointing because we got their gun batsmen, Charles Mitchell, out early and it would have been good to get the win, but a draw doesn’t leave us in a bad place. “If we get one win this weekend, we will finish in the top spot going into the finals.”

Coastal League

Round 10 of second grade saw Cudgen take on Pottsville at Kingscliff, with the hosts sending Potty into bat first. Oscar Van Megchelen opened well, scoring 44 before being taken down with an LBW by Terry Wilson. Chris Moase took out the Pelicans number two and three batsmen with only three runs between them. Then Adam Laycock came galloping to the rescue to save the day for the Pelicans, winning the Dally M of cricket, the Pelican of the Week in the process, with a brilliant 141 runs not out to see Potttsville finish the 40 overs at 4/245. Cudgen went into bat and started out well enough, with Harry Bassingthwaighte getting 30 runs and Kyle Lohman scoring his half ton, bowled by John Ainsworth at 59 runs. It was the collapse of the middle order that put Pottsville in a winning position, with Cudgen unable to match the Pelicans batting prowess. Lucas Buckman was the best of the Potty bowlers at 2/24. Cudgen finished at 7/197.

A blast from the Tweed Cricket past

Terranora played Byron at Brunswick Heads with Byron first to the crease. A good combined effort from the Byron batsmen saw them lose only four wickets for 205 runs at the end of the 40 overs. Ian Rowlings was the best of the Terranora bowlers, taking 2/37 with Aiden Colivas taken one as well. Terranora put in a good effort with the bat, but it was the Byron Bay bowlers - especially Shouldice with 5/ 39 - that kept the runs down, with Peter Hall top scoring on 30. Terranora went down at 10/167. Murwillumbah played Tintenbar East Ballina at home, going in to bat first. The Panthers scored 144 runs, up against some brutal bowling from Barnwell who took 5/40 with no batting breakdown available. Tintenbar overtook the Panthers at 147 with the loss of only three wickets to give the visitors the win. The Thirstiers played Ballina at Bilambil, with the Bears up first. It was a good combined effort that saw the Bears wrap the 40 overs at 4/282, with Zac Jones, the mysterious M Togo (I’d pay good money if someone could let me know what the M stands for) and Dale Fielder taken two wickets each. The Thirstiers went in to bat, with opener Michael Strange scoring a very respectable 77, Scott Bruce scoring his half ton and the whole team putting in a great effort

to take the win in what must have been a thriller, at 8/283 with three balls to spare.

Thirsty Thirds

In Round 11 of third grade, Pottsville played the Schooners at Tweed South with Potty opening the batting. The Pelicans showed why they are on top of the ladder with the top five batsmen in for a combined 249, with four scoring their half tons and retiring (Koralage, Lamb, France and Pryke) and Troy Singh just missing his half century, bowled at 43. In reply the Schooners only managed 154 runs, with no batting breakdown available. Brendham Downham took 3/20, Johnathan Regan took 2/25 and Steve Allan took 2/28 to give Potty an easy victory. The Cudgen Stingers took on the Paper Wasps with the Stingers first to the crease. Harry Hall opened with a halfton, retiring at 67 runs, with Jacob Hall next best on 42 for a combined 6/188 at the end of 27 overs. Gary Hall and Dave Patterson took two wickets each for the Wasps. The Wasps went into the chase with the top order putting the runs on the board. Daley Clarke scored 51 not out, James Adams got his half century, 50 not out and Josh King scored 46 not out with the Wasps overtaking the Stingers at 1/191.

The Murwillumbah Cubs played the Cudgen Hornets at Cudgen with the visitors up first to the crease. Opener Marc Portus top scored for the Cubs on 39, with Fisher next best on 37 with the Cubs all out for 146. In reply the Hornets overtook the Cubs at 161 runs with the loss of only three wickets, from Miller, Stewart and Riley. Cabarita played the Murwillumbah Cougars at Black Rocks. The Cougars took the win but that’s all I can tell you as they were obviously too busy having fun to put in their score sheet. The picture of South Arm Burringbar Cricket team was provided by Murwillumbah Cricket Club’s Dave Reading: “Plenty of characters, staunch club men and some serious cricketers amongst this group,” Dave said. “In the middle front row is John Rabjones at the time Secretary of the Club. “John was arguably one of the finest batsmen the Tweed has produced captaining NSW country in an era when cricket was extremely strong. “When his playing days were over John channelled his relentless love of the game into umpiring and administration. “Sometime in the late 70s early 80s the main cricket oval in Murwillumbah was named in his honour. A fitting legacy to a man who put so much into the game.”

Volunteers wanted for Kingscliff ’s Cocky Classic By Jo Kennett THE MUCH-LOVED Cocky Classic is on again at Kingscliff this Saturday, January 18. The Disabled Surfers Association is organising the event and is looking for volunteers to help take the disabled community into the surf for a safe water experience. “It takes many volunteers for this to become a reality and we need water people to help make this happen,” a spokesperson from the organisation said. “It’s only for a few hours, 9am to 1pm and we supply rash vests, sun lotion, water and lunch to all who attend and give a helping hand. “Our annual Cocky Classic is usually a great day out.

“Be prepared to enjoy yourself and join a team to put “smiles on the dials” of all who attend. “Hope to see you on the day. It starts at 9am, so just roll up and sign on, we will also provide training. “We welcome the disabled community to come along at 10am for the surfing experience, followed by lunch and a presentation.” Last year the feel-good event, which commemorates Kingscliff local Peter ‘Cocky’ Stannard, “one of the best fundraisers who did so much for the Disabled Surfers,” attracted 95 volunteers and 40 participants and carers. Volunteers and participants are invited to meet at the Lions Park near the Coastguard Tower, beside Cudgen Creek. For all enquiries email: dianasgarden@ hotmail.com or phone: 0404 482 492.
