The scene following a nasty roll over on Tweed Valley Way

The Weekly attended the scene where paramedics stabilised one female patient, a Murwillumbah business woman, as police directed traffic around the accident.

Mr Carr said the cars involved including a Hyundai wagon, which rolled and an SUV. “One patient, a woman, was extricated from a vehicle by Fire and Rescue, a passing doctor and paramedics,” Mr Carr said.

“I believe the female patient was airlifted to hospital.”

Police said the 76-year-old woman remains is in a critical condition after the accident.

Police said it was about 12.10pm, when a Hyundai i30 and a Holden Captiva – both travelling south – collided.

“The Hyundai then crossed to the wrong side of the road and hit a signpost, before overturning,” Police said.

“A 76-year-old woman, from Tweed Heads, driving the Hyundai was taken to Gold Coast Hospital in a critical condition with severe head injuries.

“The female driver of the Holden and three passengers were not injured.

She has been taken to Murwillumbah Hospital for mandatory testing.”

Police said inquiries continue.

at the Murwillumbah Showground,” she said.

The Apex Club are working towards a return of the street parade in 2020.

Mrs Mudge said that due to public liability laws and insurance requirements livestock of any kind are not permitted in the street parade, as well as some other requirements and costs.

“There’s a lot of requirements under our public liability laws, which means we need to ensure the parade is free of any livestock and adheres to the new public parade laws,” she said.

Mrs Mudge said it was discouraging to see so many social media posts and even news stories talking about anti-terrorism laws, when this is only one small area of concern.

“You’ve read it in The Weekly, so it must be true, we are still running the Banana Festival this year and we’ve received a great response from willing volunteers,” she said.

A volunteer workshop will take place at the Murwillumbah Soccer Club tonight (Thursday, July 11) from 5.30pm.

Banana Festival not closing due to anti-terrorism laws

By Jonathon Howard TWEED VALLEY Banana Festival organisers have sought to reassure that the Banana Festival is still going ahead this year and is “not closing down due to anti-terrorism laws” as reported in the media.

In fact, dozens of willing volunteers have put their hands up to help run the Banana Festival on Saturday, August 31.

Apex Club of Murwillumbah, who hold the rights to the Banana Festival, hosted a special crisis meeting recently and have received a flood of local support.

The Apex Club members are now hoping to subdue online rumours that the festival is doomed.

“We had almost 30 people attend and offer to provide much-needed support to keep the Banana Festival alive,” Apex member and Banana Festival coordinator Carol Mudge said.

Mrs Mudge said the rumours that anti-terrorism laws had snuffed out one of Australia’s longest running regional festivals, were “somewhat exaggerated”.

“We want to put a stop to the rumours and reassure residents we’re working with authorities to ensure we run the Banana Festival in the best way possible this year

By Jonathon Howard LO C A L P O L I C E a n d r e s c u e services have been run off their feet with another rescue up Wollumbin Mount Warning on Wednesday, July 3, followed by a nasty car accident on Tweed Valley Way on Tuesday, July 9.

Tweed District Rescue Squad (TDRS) were called to assist in the rescue of a stricken hiker on Wollumbin Mount Warning, which follows the recent death of an 80-year-old woman on the mountain in late June.

TDRS President Drew Carr said the squad were activated at 3.37pm to a woman aged in her late 60s that may have broken her leg.

“The person was approximately 30 minutes from the car park up the track,” Mr Carr said.

“We dispatched crews, but fortunately by the time the crews were reaching the location the Westpac Helicopter had already lifted the patient to safety.

“We understand she had a broken leg.

“It was still slippery conditions and getting cold at that time of afternoon.”

The Rescue Squad were called to a two vehicle accident that occurred on Tweed Valley Way, South Murwillumbah, at about 12pm on Tuesday, July 9.

Mr Carr said investigations are ongoing, “however, it appears two vehicles have collided, and one appears to have rolled a number of times and landed back on its wheels”.

Take Back Tweed function

It will be interesting to see Take Back Tweed’s disclosure of political donations, in cash or kind, on the Electoral Commission’s website as he/they gear up for the 2020 Tweed Shire Council election.

The proposed do at Babalou, is far from elitist as has been suggested - the price for admission would barely cover the cost of the meal, drink and guest speakers. Hardly a fundraiser but an election function, nevertheless.

In a case of cash for comment, Alan Jones never comes cheap at an advertised $15,000 to $20,000 for an appearance, plus first-class extras.

A set menu meal at the venue itself will gobble up a fair proportion of the $120 admission price, and federal Liberal Party vice-president, Teena McQueen (whose recent appearance on Q&A was described as ‘the greatest televised train wreck of 2019’ (SMH, March 26)) comes along for the ride.

Perhaps Jones will regale the audience with details of the recent 2018 defamation case against him in which Justice Flanagan said Jones’ conduct was unjustified because of “the intrinsically vicious and spiteful wording used … [and] Mr Jones’ wilful blindness to the truth or falsity of the defamatory accusations”.

He and 2GB/4BC were ordered to pay a sum of around $3.75 million to the aggrieved parties.

And who needs the truth or scientific evidence anyway when you can explain away Australia’s climate change contribution with a bag of white rice on Sky’s ‘Jones+Co’.

With some of his favourite targets amongst the ‘Rainbow Four’ on council, it should be easy for him to reprise the excesses and the misogyny of the whole campaign against another female leader, Julia Gillard, during her time as PM. The one with the signs outside parliament house as Tony Abbott

spoke: ‘Ditch the Witch’ and ‘Bob Brown’s Bitch’- tasteful.

The one where he infamously quipped that her recently deceased father must have died of shame - charming; the one where he suggested she should be put into a chaff bag and taken far out to sea - delightful; the one where he said women are destroying the joint lovely. Guests are sure to be bathed in the bonhomie of the evening and the righteousness of their shared cause.

Unfortunately, Jones is not the messiah; he’s just a very cranky old man and this ‘Take Over Tweed’ political foray will leave a very bitter aftertaste in everyone’s mouth.

One also wonders if the proponent of this soiree will consider changing his spots - a professed Liberal in National Party territory is hardly likely to have a bright future in politics up here and he’s hardly likely to settle for a meagre $43,000 a year remuneration as mayor. We’ve seen it all before.

Save pound petition message

Firstly, I’d like to say a big thank you to the 1,229 people who signed the petitions, one online and one circulated in the community.

I started this petition only a month ago because I could not believe the Council intended on closing the pound to accommodate rubbish, without any plan to accommodate animals at the pound.

Clearly there are many in the community that are concerned as well, as there has been so many signatures in such a short amount of time and the petitions were only available in a handful of locations.

I only ran the petition for a short amount of time, as time is of the essence, the council intends on closing the pound in a couple of weeks.

No plan as to how dogs and cats will be housed has been released to the public, even though they have known about this for two years.

I tried and tried to get an answer from the mayor and councillors and I have been shocked and appalled that none of them have answered the community’s concern.

A council employee contacted me talking about the shire’s rubbish (which clearly comes before dogs and cats) but no one will answer my question regarding animal welfare.

I thought these people were employed by the community - such arrogance is something we should all consider next time we vote for our councillors.

I will now write to the Minister for Local Government with the petition,

in the hope she may be able to get an answer on our behalf.

My question remains: what is council doing about a pound when they close our pound?

Vicki Barnes, Tweed Shire

Please build the pound first

I think it is disgraceful that the Tweed Shire Council is closing the pound at Stotts Creek before building a new pound or finding a new site, to rehome these beautiful animals whom I might add are in my opinion man’s best friend.

These animals are already traumatised by being in this facility in the first place.

Please do not close the pound until another suitable pound is found for these animals.

Spend the money to build a new facility first before closing the current pound.

Elizabeth O’Sullivan, Tweed Shire

Council meeting shemozzle

Having attended council meetings for the last 20 years the antics of some councillors witnessed at last week’s (Thursday, July 4) meeting was one of the worst.

On display was the desperation exposed by the three Liberal/ National councillors that the legal advice regarding works undertaken on the Cudgen farmland is not released.

The Liberal councillor moved an amendment to defer his Notice of Rescission to the next meeting.

The amendment was lost on the casting vote of the mayor.

When the mayor attempted to then deal with the Notice of Rescission listed in the Business Papers before them, the senior Nationals councillor carried on a treat, stating that it could not be dealt with as it had not been moved and an alternate motion had been put up when in fact an amendment had been moved, voted on and recorded (witnessed in the gallery).

This councillor persisted in ove r r i d i n g t h e M a n ag e r o f Corporate Governance who advised procedure can deal with the Notice of Rescission.

The meeting came to a stop and they broke for dinner.

Following the dinner break as per the minutes, the Mayor moved the Notice of Rescission be dealt with as a Mayoral minute which was then lost on the casting vote of the Mayor.

Thus, the legal advice relevant to works undertaken on the Cudgen farmland prior to any approvals or rezoning is able to be viewed at Council offices.

There has been no legal privilege as there are no court proceedings and the legal advice has been provided to other parties.

This exercise of transparency is to remedy the misleading claims led by the Liberal councillor that the seeking of legal advice was a “cynical political stunt in advance of the election”.

Lindy Smith, Tweed Heads

Show me your credentials

I write regarding a previous letter ‘Beware the misinformed’ by Greg Reid (TVW, July 4) in which he wrote: beware the misinformed when criticising Dr Wes Allen’s comments about global warming made on June 27.

He said the heat continues to accumulate for decades when referring to the use of fossil fuels.

I believe qualified climatologists would question his assumption about ‘accumulation’.

Could we say the same thing about the sun’s radiation accumulating in the naturally made gases such as methane that is emitted from oceans and forests?

I would like to ask: what are Mr Reid’s academic credentials?

Warren James, Tweed Heads

The hallmark of science is scepticism, says Dr Allen

While arguing that only “a climate scientist” has “credibility”, Peter Leith pontificates on “academic verification” (TVW, June 27).

He spent “five minutes with Google” checking the messenger instead of the message on Google Scholar.

He would have found numerous academic papers on the impact of wind farms on bat and bird populations, some expressing grave concern over the future of endangered raptors (see https:// www.sciencedirect.com/science/ article/abs/pii/S0006320709003383 & https://www.sciencedirect. com/science/article/abs/pii/ S000632071400305X).

Tim Flannery was not a climate scientist but a mammologist when he wrote The Weather Makers, was awarded Australian of the Year in 2007 and made head of the Climate Commission in 2011.

Will Steffen, a key spokesman for that commission, was an industrial chemist.

F l a n n e r y ’s a l a r m i n g b o o k contained more than seventy factual errors plus numerous exaggerations, contradictions and misinterpretations, one cited paper clearly stating the exact opposite of his interpretation.

Cosmetic Tattooing

Change the way you feel about yourself. Gain confidence, Wake up ready everyday. The benefits are endless...

• Feathered Brows • Powdered Brows • Top Eyeliner

• Bottom Eyeliner • Lash Line Enhancements

After spending a year writing a 390-page critique, The Weather Makers Re-examined (Irenic Publications), I critiqued Slaying the Sky Dragon, a book denying any greenhouse effect, and found it to be even less scholarly.

Professor Will Happer, Chief Scientist at the White House, then asked me to prepare a White Paper on Climate Change and Health, which I presented at the Russell Senate Building in Washington DC last October.

Doctors are trained in evidencebased medicine, science and statistics. The hallmark of science is scepticism, especially of one’s own theory or hypothesis.

The hallmark of religion, on the other hand, is belief which, when challenged, seeks to discredit the challenger.

Dr D Weston Allen, Cudgen

Choice to climb Mt Warning

Regarding Bill Collin’s letter (TVW, July 4) ‘Nothing wrong with climbing Mt Warning’ - very well said Bill.

This amazing landmark along with numerous others in our beautiful country (namely Ayers Rock, Kings Canyon etc) are a natural phenomenon.

People have been climbing and enjoying (and also being rescued) from these amazing landmarks since long before the turn of the century and no race, religion or organisation should be given the right to put a stop to our enjoyment or personal activity.

These landmarks are not owned by anyone and we all have the right to continue to enjoy their beauty.

Lesley Watt, Banora Point

Wealth gap widening

In this country the wealth gap between the not so well off and the very well off is widening and has been doing so for years.

The new federal parliament, in its wisdom, has just decided to widen that gap still further by reducing the number of income tax brackets in the years ahead.

This will mean the very well off will pay much less tax than at present and there will be less revenue to spend on things that benefit the less well off.

This disparity between the poor and the rich creates a much less coherent and equitable society.

Two historic South Sea Islander walls earmarked for removal

By Jonathon Howard TWEED SHIRE South Sea Islander families have expressed grave concerns for two rock walls on the Tweed Valley Hospital site at Cudgen, which date back more than 170 years but have been earmarked for removal to make way for the hospital.

The removal of the rock walls were included in the initial plans for the hospital, one to make way for a public carpark and the other the main hospital building, but several residents told The Weekly they were only now realising the walls needed to be removed.

Health Infrastructure hosted a private onsite meeting at Cudgen on Friday, July 5, and Saturday, July 6, to give residents a greater understanding of the hospital plans and to work with families on the best way forward with the rock walls.

Many local South Sea Islanders attended the meetings including members of the Watego family, Togo family, Wogas family, Corowa family and many more.

Local resident Robyn Watego, of the South Sea Islanders Association, said there were concerns with the removal of rock walls three and four on the plans due to their significance.

“These walls have existed on the site for more than 170 years and as far as we know they are the oldest rock structures known to reside in the Northern Rivers,” she said.

“While there are some initial issues with removal of the walls

and redesigning of the rocks, there’s also some early concerns whether the walls should be removed at all.”

Ms Watego said one of the main concerns was knowing whether any human remains of South Sea Islanders are located under the walls, making them a potential burial site.

Health Infrastructure was questioned about the walls and in a statement to The Weekly said the Environmental Impact Statement for the Stage 1 State Significant Development application states there are five dry-stone walls located on the site believed to have been built circa 19th century by South Sea Islanders, when the site was part of a large sugar plantation.

“Although these dry-stone walls are not heritage listed, Health Infrastructure acknowledges their local significance and is committed to the preservation and enhancement of these culturally significant elements on the new Tweed Valley Hospital site,” a spokesperson for Health Infrastructure said.

Initial plans floated by Health Infrastructure and with some family members included using the stones to create a water fountain or feature at the hospital.

“Due to previous on-site land uses the walls, which are over 750-metres long in total, are generally in poor condition and in parts substantially degraded,” the Health Infrastructure spokesperson said.

“While the majority of the length of the walls can be retained in their current location, some are positioned within the footprint of the hospital infrastructure and will need to be relocated as part of the early works.

“Health Infrastructure has undertaken archival recording of the walls and is engaging with the South Sea Islander community on how the walls can be appropriately preserved and incorporated within the design of the site.

“Two community meetings were recently held on site (July 5 and July 6) and Health Infrastructure committed to undertaking no work on the walls until consultation has progressed further.”

The Health Infrastructure spokesperson said they are “committed to ongoing consultation with the South Sea Islander community and further community consultation meetings will be held”.

“Early works will be commencing on the site shortly, and the dry-stone walls will be fenced off and protected until an outcome has been reached,” the Health Infrastructure spokesperson said.

YOUR THOUGHTS: Do you believe the walls should be removed and the stones used on a structure, such as a water feature, on the hospital site? Or should they remain where they are? Send your thoughts and letters to editor@ theweekly.net.au

July 4 fireworks at Council meeting over legal advice New cancer support group

By Jo Kennett THERE WERE fiery scenes at the Tweed Shire Council meeting on Thursday, July 4, over the release of legal advice on preliminary earthworks undertaken at the Tweed Valley Hospital at Cudgen.

Councillors Chris Cherry, Ron Cooper and Mayor Katie Milne were ultimately successful in seeing that the legal advice be made available to the public.

The advice provided to Council by Senior Counsel Tim Robertson was that the earthworks were unlawful, which led council to file a complaint with the NSW Ombudsman.

In an attempt to block the release of the legal advice, Councillor Pryce Allsop moved an amendment to defer the rescission notice to the next meeting, supported by Councillors Warren Polglase and James Owen.

However, with Cr Reece Byrnes away due work commitments, the motion was lost on the casting vote of the mayor.

Lindy Smith, one of the attendees of the meeting, said when the mayor attempted to deal with the rescission notice “Cr Polglase carried on a real treat, stating that it could not be done as it had not been moved”.

“He overrode the Government and Public Officer who advised that the procedure was to deal with the Notice of Rescission,” she said (see Letters).

Mayor Milne used her powers to put forward a mayoral minute that the legal advice be available for viewing at Council offices.

The motion was passed with votes from Cr Cherry and Cr Cooper and the casting vote of the mayor ensuring the advice will be made public.

Mayor Milne’s motion also noted the Ombudsman’s investigation was confined “only to their conduct in relation to how Health Infrastructure’s advice had been obtained”.

Cr Polglase told the Weekly he did not want the information made available for public viewing because “Council has selectively decided to release one lot of legal advice on this issue”.

“My concern is you release none or you release it all,” he said.

“People can say why aren’t you releasing this information? What is Council hiding?

“The perception is there that if we won’t release advice on other issues, we are hiding something.

“You cannot be selective on what is released. It’s irresponsible.”

Cr Cherry said the advice Council received showed there was no approval in place for the preliminary earthworks.

“At the time they agreed to stop work for about three days while we tried to work it out,” she said.

“They said they were allowed to do the work and we said they weren’t. Our legal advice came back saying the works were unlawful.

“We gave them a copy of that advice and they said they had different legal advice and we disagree.

“We decided the wisest and cheapest action was to refer it to the Ombudsman.

“Unfortunately, he limited the scope of his investigation as to whether their advice was legally obtained.

“Basically, they have come back saying it’s a matter for the courts but in the meantime those works have been given approval retrospectively by the approval of the concept plan.

“That’s why in these circumstances I was happy to accept the advice but when

one of the councillors started lying and saying it was a witch hunt and we had gone after them for no reason, I decided it was best to release the advice.”

Cr Cherry said she didn’t agree with Cr Polglase that all the information should be released.

“This is just based on process and we have already lost legal privilege by handing the information over to Health Infrastructure,” she said.

“I believe that in this particular circumstance considering the huge public interest, people deserve to know what we based our decision to send it to the Ombudsman on.

“I accept the Ombudsman’s position, but I don’t accept other councillors spreading lies that there was no reason to do it.

“You have to wonder why Cr Owen and Cr Polgase were so desperate to not allow the public to see this.

“If this is part of Cr Owen’s Take the Tweed backwards campaign, I don’t want any part of it.”

Tweed Shire Council had lodged a complaint with the NSW Ombudsman regarding Health Infrastructure’s preliminary earthworks for the new hospital at Cudgen Road.

The Deputy NSW Ombudsman, Chris Wheeler, said in a letter to Council that Health Infrastructure was entitled to rely on the advice they received.

He found the evidence available to the inquiry did not show there was inappropriate conduct in relation to how Health Infrastructure obtained advice regarding the proposed hospital.

The advice is available for viewing at Twe e d S h i re C o u n c i l at t h e Murwillumbah office by appointment.

New Solar Panel Technology Increases Power Efficiency

By Jo Kennett A BOGANGAR resident is starting a new cancer support group with the first meeting kicking off on Thursday, August 1 at the Cabarita Beach Sports Club.

Tweed Coast Cancer Support Group will be run by Terry Cleal, who is the volunteer facilitator for the Tweed Cancer Support Group, with the help of Bogangar’s Wendy Shannon, an oncology nurse at The Tweed Hospital.

“I’m also a cancer patient - I’ve had two different types of breast cancer and at the moment I’m palliative, I’ve got metastatic bowel cancer,” Wendy said.

Wendy met Terry in his work at The Tweed Hospital as a volunteer with the Cancer Council and contacted him when she decided the Tweed Coast needed a cancer support group.

“There is a support group in Byron, Murwillumbah and Tweed but there wasn’t one on the Tweed Coast and we wanted to get a point of access here for people,” she said.

“We want to reach out not just to people that have had or have cancer but also to their family because it can be quite scary.

“We won’t offer medical advice, but we offer support and advice on the services that people can access.

“Each month we hope to get a guest speaker and the first speaker will be from the Cancer Council of NSW. “We also have a lawyer that is happy to do pro bono work for cancer patients, a clinical trials speaker, palliative care, a psychologist, it will just be a whole range of local speakers talking about what services are available to help them in the local community.

“It’s all confidential, people don’t have to discuss their situation, they can just listen.

“It’s just to offer people who may feel a bit isolated comfort and support, so we’d love to have people come along and join us at our inaugural meeting.”

The group’s first meeting is on Thursday, August 1 at Cabarita Beach Sports Club and the first Thursday of each month at 11am. $6.50 coffee and cake will be available.

For more information contact Terry on 0416 270 170 or Wendy’s number is 0416 435 577.

“It has been a year since you installed my solar system and I just want to tell you that it is working perfectly. I now have a $512 credit with my energy retailer and it has cut my power use to just 3.67 kWh per day. With the 20 cent Feed In Tariff I receive from power I don't use during the day, it has paid for all my night time power and covered the network supply charge. I estimate I have saved over $2,200 in the last year.” Bob from Goonellabah

Tweed Shire Council wishes to recognise the generations of the local Aboriginal people of the Bundjalung Nation who have lived in and derived their physical and spiritual needs from the forests, rivers, lakes and streams of this beautiful valley over many thousands of years as the traditional owners and custodians of these lands.

In brief ...

Muzzles off for pet greyhounds The legal requirement for pet greyhounds to be muzzled in public no longer applies for greyhounds registered on the NSW Pet Registry as of 1July 2019.

The change is part of the NSW Government’s commitment to improving living standards and rehoming rates for the breed and to help improve whole-of-life tracking of racing greyhounds.

Just like all breeds of dogs in NSW, greyhounds will still be required to be on a leash while in public at all times. In addition, a greyhound will still require a muzzle in an off-leash area if it has not undergone an approved retraining program.

For more information, see www.olg.nsw.gov.au/content/greyhound-muzzling

Parking arrangements will change at the Tweed Heads Civic Centre from Monday, 15 July during the construction of a $1.2 million upgrade.

Parking changes during civic centre upgrade The Tweed Heads Civic Centre is receiving a $1.2 million upgrade that includes an enhanced forecourt area with better accessibility, greater energy efficiency and new equipment for the auditorium, and a social enterprise café jointly funded by the Australian Government’s Building Better Regions Fund and Tweed Shire Council.

Parking arrangements will change at the civic centre from Monday, 15 July during the construction of the upgrade.

The Tweed Heads Library, auditorium and Council’s offices will remain open during the improvements.

The existing Council staff carpark on the hospital side of the Civic Centre will become a two-hour public parking zone, while the current public carpark in front of the library will become Council staff parking.

During construction, members of the public are encouraged to park at the rear of the library. These arrangements will be in place until construction finishes in December 2019.

Once complete, the construction project will provide an outdoor plaza with a direct pathway for easier access to the library and auditorium, contemporary landscaping, an improved drop off area, accessible parking, better lighting and a more accessible after hours library book return.

The social enterprise café will be established in the Council administration building to serve barista coffee, tea and snacks. Council will operate this service, which will provide training and employment opportunities for young and older people, people with disabilities and others who need support to enter the workforce.

The plaza between the administration and library/auditorium buildings will become a space for people to gather and relax with a coffee from the café.

Let’s celebrate Local Government Week Local Government Week (29 July – 4 August) celebrates the role that Tweed Shire Council plays in supporting the community to live and love the Tweed.

The theme for this year’s event is ‘Your Council’ which aims to move the conversation beyond only ‘roads, rates and rubbish’ and highlight how closely Council is involved in our community.

Among the more than 50 services that Council provides, it works for the community to deliver high quality infrastructure and services now

and for the future, protect and enhance the Tweed’s internationally significant environment and respond to the challenges of climate change, and make the Tweed an even better place to live, work and visit.

For more information on the week’s events, see next week’s Tweed Link or go to www.tweed.nsw.gov.au/LGWK

Come and dig in for National Tree Day The first event in Local Government Week in the Tweed is a National Tree Day at Chillingham on Sunday 28 July.

Over 1,000 native trees and shrubs will be planted to restore riparian vegetation along the Rous River. Planting holes will be pre-dug and staked.

The site is 200m past the Chillingham Community Centre (where public toliets are located). Parking is available on the open sports field and is accessible to people of all abilities.

Bring along your friends and family – and some morning tea to share. Tea, coffee, drinking water and snacks provided.

Please bring gloves, planting tools, a wheelbarrow or tub and mulch fork or shovel. Don’t forget a hat and be prepared for the weather conditions on the day.

For more information on this annual community event see www.treeday.planetark.org/site/10021737

Living and Loving the Tweed

Richmond Tweed Regional Library has reinstated its three-week loan period after trialling a two-week period since March.

The change is in response to feedback from the public. Patrons will still have the option to renew items twice, as long as no one else is waiting for the item. For more information, visit www.rtrl.nsw.gov.au

Coastal concrete path repairs Council will start work to repair a number of concrete sections along the Salt to Casuarina shared-user path next week (starts Monday 15 July).

About 30 sections of broken, rough or uneven concrete will be dug up and replaced. The path will remain open during the three weeks of work but pedestrians and cyclists will have to walk around the workzones, which will be behind barriers.

Can you build cat enclosures?

Council’s Love Cats Love Wildlife project promotes keeping cats safe at home which keeps wildlife safe too.

Outdoor ‘catios’ or cat enclosures are a great way to keep cats safe while still enjoying being outdoors. Council is seeking tradespersons who can potentially: build or supply cat enclosures; and offer plans, designs, installation and advice for cat lovers of the Tweed.

If you have appropriate building accreditations and licences and would like to be included on a list of providers, contact Education Project Officer Jude Mason on JMason@tweed.nsw.gov.au. This project has been assisted by the NSW Government through its Environmental Trust. For more information visit www.tweed.nsw.gov.au/LoveCatsLoveWildlife

Thanks for community input The community recently provided input into Council’s Community Development Strategy which saw over 400 people get involved across four focus groups, interviews, a Community Forum and a survey.

The top five responses to the question, “what is important in the community?” were: safe communities; health and wellbeing; education; employment; and youth support.

The top responses to a question around what makes a strong and vibrant community included: being ‘connected’ with opportunities for interactions; supportive and caring; inclusive; events and programs to bring people together; and safe.

This collaboration with the community will contribute to a Community Development Strategy that will guide Council’s approach to social priorities, community programs, facilities, networks and partnerships over the next four years.

Council’s Community Development Coordinator, Chantelle Howse said the Community Development Strategy will be informed by consultation with the community and key stakeholders and social research.

“This consultation has also considered community strengths, needs and the region’s social and geographic profile to help us to build safe, healthy and more inclusive communities in the Tweed,” she said.

An internal Council workshop was held this week to present key findings, discuss how Community Development impacts and aligns with the rest of Council and to identify opportunities and new initiatives for the future.

The Community Development Strategy is being drafted to present at a future Council meeting. It will then go on public exhibition with comments to be incorporated into a final strategy for Council consideration and adoption. For more information, visit www.yoursaytweed.com.au/communitydevelopment

Tapping into our expertise First aid for crashes Faced with a water crisis in Guyra, Armidale Regional Council turned to the Tweed last month to teach them how to run water audits and help residents and businesses use less.

Currently, water is being trucked into Guyra to keep the town running. If significant rain is not received soon, this time next year Armidale will also be in trouble.

To stave off the water crisis, Tweed Water Engineer Elizabeth Seidl spent three chilly days in New England teaching Armidale’s Tony Haydon and Sally Thorsteinsson how to conduct water audits.

The trio audited Guyra’s biggest business water users and checked the water meters of several residential properties with high consumption.

Elizabeth shared the Tweed’s experience in water saving initiatives, such as Tweed’s Top 20 and Top 100 programs and our Target 160L campaign which have driven demand down here by 22 per cent over the past seven years.

She also discussed the success of water efficiency programs, such as toilet and tap rebates, and the savings that could be available through water audits of Council facilities.

In the Tweed, a community Project Reference Group is continuing to review the Tweed’s water strategies to ensure a safe and secure water supply into the future. That PRG is due to report to Council early next year.

Sixty Tweed motorcyclists attended motorcycle first aid courses in Murwillumbah and Banora Point last month to brush up on the skills they need as first responders when a rider comes down.

The courses were provided by Council as part of the Local Government Road Safety Program and delivered by Pulsestart Training Solution.

The course content was skewed towards first aid in motorbike crash scenarios. Paramedic and former police officers trained the riders in how to minimise injury and save life at a crash scene.

They also showed them low-risk riding strategies, the importance of wearing the right protective clothing and how to remove the helmet of a crashed rider to enable CPR to be performed.

“This course proved very popular and we had a waiting list for both sessions so Council hopes to be able to run them again next year to help all Tweed motorcyclists survive the ride,” Council Road Safety Officer, Alana Brooks said.

Australian & Interstate IRB Championships Kingscliff (11–14 July) The IRB is the workhorse of surf lifesaving clubs. For four days, the best IRB crews from around Australia are coming to Kingscliff to contest the SLSA’s national & Interstate IRB Championships, hosted by Cudgen Headland SLSC. Racing starts from 11am on Thursday and 7.30am all other days. No road closures will take place, however it should be expected that there will be increased traffic flow along Marine Parade during hours of competition (6am–6pm). Parking will be left for local residents and business owners on the South side of Cudgen Headland SLSC.

Olive Cotton Award opens The 79 finalists selected in this year’s prestigious Olive Cotton Award for photographic portraiture provide a fascinating window into the lives of their subjects.

The artists are vying for a $20,000 prize for the overall winner, with Marian Drew announcing the winner at the opening function and awards night on Saturday, 13 July from 5pm.

All 79 finalists will be on exhibition at Tweed Regional Gallery until Sunday 22 September.

New outside school care now available

By Jonathon Howard MT ST PATRICK Primary School is pleased to announce an all new Outside School Hours Care Service for Murwillumbah and surrounds to meet the increasing demand for after-school care.

The Mt St Patrick Outside School Hours Care Centre (Mt St Patrick OSHC) is a collaborative partnership formed in 2018 between Sacred Heart Parish, Mt St Patrick Primary School and the Lismore Diocese Catholic Schools Office and is available to all primary school aged children. The goal of the partnership is to work together to ensure a safe and affordable OSHC was made available to Tweed Shire communities.

The service offers up to 40 places per day of after school care (3.15pm to 6pm) and vacation care 7am – 6pm, Monday to Friday. In the future, if there is demonstrated demand, there is the possibility the centre will open before school care.

The service is nationally approved and regulated through the NSW Department of Education and families eligible for the Australian Government Child Care Subsidy can reduce their fees.

Mt St Patrick OSHC Coordinator, Darlene Sayre, said it was realised early in 2018 that there was a need for such a service outreaching to the Murwillumbah community.

“Mt St Patrick OSHC is one of a small number of services available to support school-aged children for out of school hours in the local community,” she said.

“The goal of this service is to provide children with a play based, safe, recreation and leisure program for all primary school enrolled children, where

Two Active Kids vouchers

PARENTS OF each Tweed Shire school-enrolled child now has access to two $100 Active Kids vouchers.

Member for Tweed, Geoff Provest, said one of the most popular programs for kids and parents has just been doubled to help kids stay active all year long.

“We all know kids in Tweed want to play sport and keep active with their friends and now parents can encourage them even more with another voucher to help spread the costs associated with participation,” Mr Provest said.

Since the Active Kids program was launched in 2018, more than one million vouchers have been redeemed and more than $100 million saved by NSW families.

From January to June there was an overall increase of 13 per cent in the number of Active Kids vouchers created, including a 17 per cent rise in vouchers created for girls following an influx of registrations for dance, gymnastics, tennis and swimming Active Kids providers.

Parents of school-enrolled children can access a second $100 Active Kids voucher to use towards registration and membership fees for sport and active recreation each year.

For further information visit sport.nsw.gov.au/activekids or call 13 13 02.

Staff and children were having a great time at the new Outside School Hours Care Service this week with a range of crafting activities and much more

children can grow, form relationships, be enriched and have fun.

“Each day children engage in a wide variety of meaningful and interest-based experiences as part of our After School and Vacation Care programs. They are encouraged to participate in as many activities as possible.”

Mrs Sayre said the team were excited the service received a start-up grant from the NSW Government through the Before and After School Care Fund.

“This significantly supported the establishment of the service and meant that we were able to keep session fees as low as possible,” she said.

“Examples of the many activities on offer are sports, games, creative arts, music, cooking, movies, craft, sustainable gardening and so much more.

“In Vacation Care we also go on local excursions and invite entertainers

to share their skills and fun with the children as well as get involved in many in-centre activities.”

Mrs Sayre said starting the new service has also led to additional employment in the local community.

“We have a great team of permanent and casual educators who are very skilled and experienced in developing activities and working with children of primary school age,” she said.

Currently there are children from six local schools accessing after school care with children from an additional six schools accessing vacation care.

To find out more about the Mt St Patrick Outside School Hours Care Service please phone Darlene on 0474 827 651 or email the service at murp-oshc@lism.catholic. edu.au

Retiring radiographer John Brooks in his element. Inset is the opening of the facility

Stellar career comes to an end for John Brooks

By Jonathon Howard MURWILLUMBAH HOSPITAL chief radiographer John Brooks has been the face of the hospital’s x-ray department for the past 37 years and chances are he’s x-rayed almost every local in Murwillumbah.

But after a career spanning 42 years, including 37 in Murwillumbah Hospital, Mr Brooks has announced his retirement at the end of July.

Mr Brooks started as one of the original radiographers at the Westmead Hospital in Sydney after working at Bankstown Hospital for 18 months whilst Westmead Hospital was being completed Mr Brooks met with The Weekly recently to give readers an insight into the life behind the hospital’s “X-Ray Department” sign.

Mr Brooks is passionate about his work and believes a good radiographer starts with the fundamentals - even though there are more specialised areas these days such as CT and MRI. “I’ve seen the industry change a lot over the years,” he said.

“At Bankstown Hospital we would process theatre work by darkroom, developing by hand in tanks and in the department by darkroom, developing using an automatic film processor with photographic chemicals.

“Developing of film automatically by a film processor via a daylight system or darkroom facility was the method in use at Westmead and Murwillumbah up to fourteen years back when digital imaging was introduced.

“These days we use digital computer imaging and post processing to create our imaging and highlight pathology, which has sped up the process considerably.”

M r B ro o k s s a i d h e s t i l l b e l i e v e s understanding the traditional methods and knowledge of photographic aspects remains extremely important.

Mr Brooks spoke highly of former Murwillumbah Hospital radiographer Peter Dunne, of whom the medical imaging department is named in honour.

“I worked with Peter, it was a great experience and I had a lot of respect for him and he was very kind to me,” he said.

Mr Brooks said the Murwillumbah Hospital Medical Imaging Department has evolved a lot in the years he’s been working there.

“We had only one x-ray room when I started in 1982, then to three rooms including ultrasound in 1991,” he said.

“Nowadays we also have a CT scanner and an OPG dental unit.

“It certainly has grown and there’s been a lot of great memories here.

“With a busy department and having to be on call for emergencies every second day that we worked would not be possible unless you have other exceptional radiography and clerical staff and I wish to thank Mr John Weekes, Mark Callahan, and clerical staff Keryn Douglas, Linda Lowe and Kelly Lee.” Mr Brooks said he’s looking forward to travel plans in retirement including a trip to London.

“Our son’s is getting married in London, which should be great fun,” he said.

“We are also planning a road trip to the Southern Highlands at the end of the year.”

Anyone wanting to wish Mr Brooks well in retirement can visit him at the Murwillumbah District Hospital X-Ray Department until the end of the month.

TWEED POLICE have continued their efforts to stamp out crime across the Tweed and Byron shires under Operation Titan with more than 130 police actions in as little as two days across the policing district.

Tweed Byron Police District Chief Inspector Gary Cowan said in a media statement that the intent of the operation is to disrupt, prevent and respond to crime in areas identified through intelligence throughout the entire district.

Over two days (July 5 and 6) the following results were achieved including eight arrests through intel reporting, nine charges, three warrants executed, 167 random breath tests resulting in five low range and one high range

drink driving charge, as well as random drug tests resulting in one arrest.

The police efforts included 33 traffic infringement notices, 5 CPR checks, eight bail checks, 25 bus inspections, eight vehicle searches, 15 searches of people, five charges for possessing drugs, six penalty infringement notices, three charges for possessing a knife, one move on order and two occasions of gun safety inspections.

These figures were achieved despite heavy rain affecting both days. Further Titan Operations are planned for the police district.

POLICE BEAT Man arrested on drug charges at Hastings Point

By Jo Kennett TWEED POLICE have arrested a man on drug charges after stopping a car at Hastings Point on Saturday, July 6.

At around 10.30pm police said they stopped a car at the BP service station on Tweed Coast Road at Hastings Point.

Tweed Byron Police District Chief Inspector Luke Arthurs said police had cause to search the vehicle.

“It’s alleged police seized a number of prescription medications from that vehicle,” Insp Arthurs told The Weekly.

“Police located about 109 assorted prescription medication tablets in the vehicle.”

Madison Duff was celebrating a friend’s birthday at a party across the road from the service station.

“The police didn’t have their lights on until they pulled them over,” she told The Weekly.

“I think there was three police cars there, two undercover and one highway patrol.

“The undercover one got their first and then the other two arrived afterwards.

“The highway patrol had their lights on.”

Police dogs could be heard barking as police searched the vehicle.

“I think the dogs must have been searching for drugs,” Ms Duff said.

“The police looked like they had a couple of people there from the car they stopped.

“They got their around 10.30 and left around 11.20pm.”

An 18-year-old Farrants Hill man was arrested and charged with possessing a prohibited drug.

He was bailed to appear before Tweed District Court on August 5.

Man nabbed for cannabis and woman found drink driving TWEED POLICE have nabbed a 43-yearold with possessing cannabis after his vehicle was stopped on Kennedy Drive at Tweed Heads.

Police said a search of the man’s vehicle located a quantity of cannabis.

He was issued with a Court Attendance Notice to attend the Tweed Heads Local Court later in the month.

In a second, unrelated bust, Tweed Police have charged a 26-year-old woman with lowrange drink driving on Friday, July 5.

Police said they saw a vehicle driving along Marine Parade at Kingscliff around 10pm, stopped the female driver for a random breath test.

“This test proved positive,” police said.

“She was conveyed to the Kingscliff Police Station for a Breath Analysis Test.

“This test recorded a positive reading.”

She was issued with a Traffic Infringement Notice for the offence of Low Range PCA and her licence suspended for three months.

Local business helping Life Education to thrive HEALTHY HAROLD the giraffe is well known among children from the Tweed Shire as a regular feature in local schools, teaching students about the benefits of healthy lifestyles.

Each year around 4,400 students from 25 schools in the Tweed Shire and Northern Rivers area receive a visit from Healthy Harold and the Life Education van, largely thanks to the support of local unsung heroes.

For 15 years, Southern Cross Credit Union (SCCU) has helped keep Life Education’s wheels moving on the North Coast by donating about $100,000 to support local volunteers and educators to reach more children in the area.

Life Education NSW Acting CEO, Jim Chaplin, said assistance from local businesses, government and volunteers was vital to ensure that more children in the area could continue to benefit from Life Education’s health and safety lessons.

“Children today face big challenges,” Mr Chaplin said.

“One in four Australian children is overweight or obese, one in five young people experience bullying or cyberbullying and one

“Families need support to help tackle these challenges and empower their children to make safe and healthy choices.

“Thanks to the continued generosity of Southern Cross Credit Union and our dedicated local volunteers, over the past four years an extra 3,500 students have benefited from our lessons, which teach children about healthy eating, physical activity, cyber safety, respectful relationships, and drug and alcohol prevention.”

SCCU’s Community Sponsorship Specialist, Cassie Nicole, said guiding young people to make safer and healthier life choices was something she felt passionate about.

“Today’s children are tomorrow’s business leaders,” she said.

“It is imperative that they are given the best start in life to help shape our future community.

“We are delighted to continue to assist in encouraging the right healthy choices for local children by supporting the Life Education program.

Denture Clinic

Speak to the friendly staff at Bromley’s Denture Clinic for all your denture needs

The staff at Bromley’s Denture Clinic are ready to help with your denture needs

TWEED SHIRE and Coolangatta residents wanting to find out more about their dentures should plan a visit to our local experts at Bromley’s Denture Clinic.

Family owned and operated for more than 20 years, Bromley’s Denture Clinic is synonymous with denture care and quality in the Tweed Heads South area.

Whatever your requirements may be, they pride themselves in offering you a professional, affordable service in a comfortable, friendly environment.

The B romley ’s team are ex tremely experienced and will always greet you with a smile and strive for individual patient satisfaction.

With their onsite laboratory, you are guaranteed a denture that is Australian made, to Australian quality standards and

meets all Therapeutic Goods Australia (TGA) requirements.

According to Bromley’s Denture Clinic Dental Prosthetist, Penny Brady, there is a general misconception that just because a denture doesn’t hurt or fall out, that it fits - and this is simply not the case.

“It is the muscles of the mouth and face that have learnt to keep an old or ill-fitting denture in place, and over time, this can do a considerable amount of damage to the underlying structure – you,” she said.

“Ill-fitting dentures can cause many problems including tissue hyperplasia (excess tissue growth), loss of chewing ability due to loss of vertical dimension (distance between nose and chin) and denture breakage due the forces on the denture being distributed unevenly.”

Mrs Brady said there are some measures that you can take to increase the life of your denture, such as cleaning with soap instead of toothpaste, however, relining your denture is the best way to avoid long term damage.

“A denture reline is replacing the fitting surface of a denture to fit the shape of the gum now, as opposed to when the denture was first made or last relined,” she said.

“These procedures are done in house, so you’re only without your dentures for one day.”

Whether you are an experienced denture wearer, or are about to embark on your denture journey, with on-site parking and ground floor/wheelchair access, it’s easy to come and meet the friendly Bromley’s Denture Clinic team for a complimentary consultation and denture health check today.

FAQ: How long will the denture last?

Dentures may last 8-10 years with the proper care and maintenance. Cleaning with Prozcare Paste (or soap) will prevent abrading the dentures during cleaning and relining every two to three years will ensure the denture fits well, without doing any long term damage to your mouth and gums. If no maintenance is done on a denture, it will need to be replaced sooner.

FAQ: Why do dentures need to be replaced?

Sometimes maintenance isn’t enough, and even with relining, dentures need to be replaced as the supporting structure changes shape over time and the teeth wear which cannot be rectified by relining.

To find out more visit 54 Kirkwood Road, Tweed Heads South, or phone (07) 5523 2555.

Stotts Creek Resource Recovery Centre is more than just a tip

By Jonathon Howard THE STOTTS Creek Resource Recovery Centre is making the traditional dump a thing of the past by utilising new and innovative ways to deal with the Tweed Shire’s mounting waste.

The Weekly was recently invited to take a guided tour of the Recovery Centre on Friday, June 21, which included an insight into how our rubbish is sorted, recycled, reused or buried.

The tour was led by Tweed Shire Council’s Director of Sustainable Communities and Environment, Tracey Stinson, alongside Tweed Shire Council’s Resource Recovery Unit Coordinator, Rod Dawson.

Both Mr Dawson and Ms Stinson spoke highly of the Recovery Centre’s committed team, who they say have played a vital role in the shire’s current and future waste management in what has become a challenging time for NSW tips.

The old days of dumping anywhere and forgetting are long gone, with a new approach to waste that views waste as more of a resource or potential resource.

But challenges remain high in the waste industry with both Qld and NSW introducing and increasing dumping levies respectively, as well as a range of other areas to contend with including higher scrutiny within the regulatory framework, driven by increasing community expectations.

“The response from Council is to maintain ongoing strong communications with the regulators, EPA and the State Government to work collaboratively to resolve complex challenges and to establish new ways to manage waste more as a resource,” Ms Stinson said.

“The Resource Recovery team (formerly Council’s waste team) are working with the other divisions of Council to undertake trials for the use of processed materials in practical applications, and we continue to be actively involved at a regional and state level to understand regional opportunities.”

Council has capacity and is currently going through the required approval process for Stotts Creek to keep taking waste for another seven to ten years based on current levels.

Council also has long term plans for a new landfill at the adjacent Eviron Road site out to 40 years, with Stotts Creek intended to remain as a site for sorting and processing waste streams even after it is no longer used as a landfill.

Council has an aspirational goal of zero waste to landfill in the future which will place a much greater need

to sort and separate waste materials, and where necessary, to process these so they can be recirculated back into use.

Tweed Shire Councillors also carried a motion via a unanimous vote to progress with plans to demolish the current Stotts Creek Pound to make way for the site’s expansion, with a new pound expected to be built at 719 Eviron Road.

Council is making arrangements for a temporary pound facility in the interim. Some of the current site’s new advancements in waste management include the use of aquaponics as well as the recent announcement of organic processing and sorting of green waste, that’s helping create one of the greenest and leanest tips in the Northern Rivers.

The onsite aquaponics farm grows non-invasive grasses to plant on current and future garbage caps, which ensure a stable and rehabilitated site for the future.

There’s also processing of concrete waste which is ground down into a variety of grades for reuse in construction.

Then there’s the meticulous sifting through our green bin organic waste to extract out the contaminants such as plastic bags and general rubbish that have been creeping back into Tweed green bins lately. This requires staff to spread out all the green waste and for “pickers” to remove by hand all the contaminants to ensure the green waste can be converted into useful compost. This increases the costs of the service by around $250,000 per year. If everyone did the right thing and only put green garden waste and kitchen scraps in their green bins, Council could save this extra cost.

Eventually there’s the general waste (red bin) dumping, capping and replanting, which is where the Council waste team are proving to be most efficient. Council has planted over 19,000 native plants at the Stotts Creek site to revegetate and stabilise old capped landfill areas.

They have also planted a further 13,000 native plants to offset the area required for the future Eviron landfill operations.

But the waste management does not stop there, with additional areas to dump white goods and gas bottles/cylinders which are de-gassed and recycled onsite. as recovery (capture) from refrigerators and air conditioners prevent emissions of green house gas depleting materials going into the

atmosphere. The gas is then returned for reuse.

There’s also an oil drop-off point and sorting bins to dispose of fluorescent lights.

“The processing of all soil received at the site is reused in various rehabilitation works,” Ms Stinson said.

“The processing of self-hauled garden waste for reuse as soil amendment and mulch product.

“We combine some of this with the processed soil to improve the quality of that material as a planting medium used in our site rehab.

“Scrap metal is also extracted out of the wasteand sold for use by metal recyclers.”

The committed team have also achieved another major milestone in the past 12 months, as they take another step closer to the centre processing their own organics with a view to producing high quality compost for reuse as seen in Tweed Link (TVW June 27 edition).

“We are extremely proud of the work that’s been done to get the Stotts Creek Resource Recovery

Centre to where it is today,” Mr Dawson said.

“Gone are the days of just dumping your items in a landfill, with a lot of work done to ensure we are only burying the items that absolutely need to be landfilled.

“There have been some amazing innovations included in the revamped Recovery Centre structure which is helping us to create a greener and leaner centre.”

Upon completion it will be the largest organics processing facility in the Northern Rivers and will process nearly 1,800 tonnes a month of the Tweed’s food and garden waste, turning it into high quality compost for reuse.

The contents of residents’ green bins were previously processed outside the Tweed and this will add another reduced footprint to the council’s resume.

Environmentally sustainable design features coming to the Resource Centre include the new facility having a 99KW solar power system which is expected to offset

22 per cent of the facility’s power consumption.

Rainwater will be captured from the roof for use within the processing operations and all wastewater generated in the processing of organics will be recycled back though the facility.

Construction is expected to begin later this year, with the facility to be in operation by mid-2021.

Soilco Pty Ltd will operate the facility for a period of 10 years.

They will use ‘in vessel composting’ (processing inside a large concrete structure) which kills germs in food and garden waste into valuable compost for reuse within the Tweed.

Soilco has worked with both i n d u s t r y a n d g ov e r n m e n t , developing products that create recycled organics that are free from pathogens and weeds, and blended in an economically viable way.

The project was supported by the Environmental Trust as part of the NSW EPA’s Waste Less, Recycle More initiative, funded from the waste levy.

Plastics in the green bin costing ratepayers dearly

TWEED RESIDENTS dumping plastics into their green bins are costing ratepayers as much $250,000 per year in additional costs, as staff are tasked with the tough job of shifting through the green waste to remove plastics.

The exuberant costs were recently revealed during a site visit in which The Weekly was shown the green bin sorting areas.

The green bin system was introduced in July 2017, and while it has been embraced by many, Tweed Shire Council staff said they were

still finding issues with plastics being dumped in the green bins.

Council’s Director of Community and Natural Resources, Tracey Stinson, said the green bin system started extremely well in the Tweed after it was introduced in 2017, but has gone downhill.

“Contamination of our green bins has become more of a problem recently,” Mrs Stinson said.

“When we first introduced the green bins, we had one of the lowest contamination rates in the country, unfortunately we are now having to employ staff to pick through our

green bin waste to extract general rubbish, particularly plastic bags, before it can be processed.

“The cost of this is approximately an additional $250,000 per year to ratepayers.”

Council is now appealing to the public to ensure their green bins are free of plastics and other nonbiodegradable items.

YOUR THOUGHTS: Are you guilty of dropping plastic in the green bin? Or are you a meticulous rubbish sorter? The Weekly would like to hear your thoughts and letters to editor@theweekly.net.au

Local fishers label State Government's seafood fund a "publicity stunt"

By Jo Kennett S E A F O O D I N D U S T RY representatives have called on Tweed Shire seafood lovers to help save the NSW fishing industry by signing a freshly launched petition, after the opening of a seafood fund which many operators have labelled a “publicity stunt”.

The petition, via Change.org, is titled “Save our fishing Industry and the families whose lives depend on it” and is a call to action from a struggling and angry fishers operator base including across the Tweed Shire.

Tw e e d M P G e o ff P rov e s t announced on Thursday, June 20, that applications had opened for the Seafood Innovation Fund, which provides low interest loans to fishers and aquaculture farmers to “increase long-term productivity and sustainability”.

Kev Solway, who owns the Sundown Karina, which operated out of the Tweed Heads trawler wharf before the fishing reforms were introduced, said he felt confident the fund was “a publicity stunt”.

“They know the reform is a total failure and the industry is in far worse shape than it was pre-reform,” Mr Solway told The Weekly.

“The last thing that fishers who have had to borrow tens of thousands of dollars to stay in the industry need is more debt.

“I don’t know if it’s intentional, arrogance or stupidity but we are clearly seeing a pattern of industries failing after the government has implemented reform.”

Mr Solway said the Tweed Shire seafood industry was like the dairy industry.

“It takes a few years for the demise to really take hold and the government seem to be experts at blaming other factors,” he said.

“The only thing that can save the industry is an inquiry into fisheries management and we ask all local seafood lovers to sign the petition at Change.org, ‘Save our fishing Industry and the families whose lives depend on it’.”

Mr Solway told The Weekly he has given up fishing in NSW since the reforms.

“Some co-ops have nearly doubled their commissions (charged to fishermen) and the government has been giving co-ops free rent to try and help them survive but managers have stated that they probably will not,” he said.

In response, Mr Provest said he was more than willing to take local concerns to the Agriculture Minister Adam Marshall.

“I'm happy to have conversations with locals about the Seafood I n n ovat i o n F u n d a n d t h e i r individual concerns, which I'll take back to the Primary Industries Minister Adam Marshall,” he said.

Mr Provest said he had heard from local fishers several months ago, but has not received much feedback recently.

“I would also like to add that there was an offer to local fishers to have individual financial advisors made available to assess businesses,” he said.

“I still think further changes to the reforms could be necessary in areas to help local fishers.

Kevin Solway at Tweed Heads Wharf with his trawler. Inset is the petition page via Change.org

“I think it's unfair that if fishers log in their diaries that they're going to fish, but conditions did not permit the actual fishing to take place, they should not be penalised.”

Mr Provest wanted to emphasize that the reforms are designed for the future viability of the commercial and recreational fishing industries.

General Manager at Markwell’s Fisheries, Richard Brown, is urging seafood consumers to contact their local Mr Provest MP with their concerns.

“The only possible way the NSW Commercial Fishing Industry will survive this constant battering from governmental bureaucrats and lobby groups solely interested in their own agendas, is through the support of local seafood consumers,” Mr Brown said.

“It is imperative that you inform your local MP that you resent your access to your sustainably caught,

healthy local seafood being stolen from you.

“Remove politics from the field of food production and allow those who choose to work in this oftendangerous industry to continue doing their jobs, after all, an industry that feeds you is an industry worth fighting for.”

Mr Brown said the Seafood Innovation Fund was further evidence of the Wild Caught Fishers Coalition and the industry being “treated with disrespect and contempt following the NSW Government’s latest farcical attempt to restore an industry that they have openly destroyed through their disastrous reform program”.

“They have been complicit in destroying cottage industry fishing businesses throughout NSW, devastating the livelihoods of hard working, often generational fishing families, and reducing fresh local

seafood supplies to a trickle,” he said.

“To have the gall to ask those who remain in the industry to pay to fix the damage the Government and NSW Fisheries created is nothing but contemptuous and illustrates the lack of regard they have for the NSW Commercial Fishing industry and its participants.

“The fact that local MPs supported this initiative through their media releases indicate that they are ignorant of the damage that has been caused, or have no desire to see local commercial fishers continuing to supply local residents with the fresh nutritious seafood they’ve been used to receiving for decades.”

The fund was announced last year by then Minister for Primary Industries Niall Blair, who resigned following the election.

First Aid with Fay Gleave: Treating bites and stings Special guest speaker to visit Mountain View Retirement Village

FAY GLEAVE has held a First Aid Certificate for 62 years and worked as a trainer for 45, so you know her knowledge is rock solid.

The 2018 St John Ambulance Trainer of the Year believes we should all know the basics of how to save a life.

In the third part of a series on first aid, Fay gives advice on how to manage bites and stings.

Section A: Venomous bites and stings - snakes and sea snakes, funnel web spiders, mouse spiders, blue-ringed octopus, cone shellfish.

Section B: Land creatures – red back spider, bee, wasp or ant sting, tick bite, scorpion or centipede.

Section C: Sea and freshwater creatures – bluebottles, stone fish and bullrout stings, stingray, platypus and sea urchins.

Always follow DRABCD for any bites or stings - checking for danger, checking for a response, sending for help, checking airways aren’t obstructed, checking if the patient is breathing, commencing CPR if the patient isn’t breathing.

Section A: Stings and bites listed in Section A are life threatening and should be treated immediately.

1. Call 000.

2. Lay patient down and ask them not to move as the poison moves through the lymphatic system and any movement will help poison move to the bloodstream.

3. Do not wash or cut the bite but apply an elasticised bandage (10-15 centimetres wide) over the bite site as soon as

There are some bad stingers like the box jellyfish and some not so bad stingers like bees

possible. Apply a further elasticised bandage starting from fingers or toes moving upwards to the armpit or groin.

Apply bandage as tightly as possible and mark bite site and time of bite.

4. Immobilise the limb using splints or in the case of a leg bite can use the other leg as a splint. If no bandages are available use clothing or other material.

5. Stay with patient until medical aid arrives.

Section B: Stings and bites listed in Section B are treated using a cold pack.

1. Apply a cold pack to the bitten or stung area for 15 minutes and reapply if pain continues.

The cold pack should be changed when necessary to maintain level of coldness.

2. Seek medical if pain persists.

Section C: With this type of bite or sting use hot water.

1. Check the water to make sure it will not scald the patient.

2. Place the stung area in the hot water or if on the body place under a hot shower for 20 minutes. Do not burn the patient.

3. Remove after 20 minutes and then if pain persists repeat the treatment.

4. Seek medical aid if patient’s condition worsens.

5. In case of stingray, do not try and remove barb but treat as an embedded object 6. For suspected box jellyfish or Irukandji stings flood area with vinegar for at least 30 seconds do not use fresh water. Carefully remove stings. A cold pack can be used for pain relief only after the vinegar has been applied.

7. If symptoms are severe seek medical aid urgently.

NSW RETIREMENT Village Ambassador, Kathryn Greiner AO, will visit Mountain View Retirement Village to inform residents about changes to retirement village laws among other hot topics on Wednesday, July 17, from 2pm.

Ms Greiner was invited by the Mountain View Residents Association to attend as a special guest speaker and she brings considerable understanding of issues faced by those living in retirement villages, having led the inquiry into NSW Retirement Villages in 2017.

Ms Greiner will inform residents about changes to retirement village laws to improve protections for residents, listen to issues faced by residents and present these issues to the NSW Government.

She also intends to advocate for residents where appropriate, including representing the residents’ perspective, to create awareness and generate recommendations for further change.

In addition, she will monitor and report on continuing and emerging issues faced by the sector and read the Retirement Village Ambassador Program Terms of Reference.

As seating is limited, bookings are essential and can be made by phoning Mountain View office on (02) 6672 4800.

Bookings close at 12pm on Friday, July 12.

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

By Jonathon Howard OPAL AGED Care resident and longtime Murwillumbah local Isabel Lydia Ellen Feltham celebrated her 100th birthday surrounded by her family and friends on Monday, July 8.

Mrs Feltham has witnessed Australia and the world go through some extraordinary changes during her lifetime including being born at the end of World War I, World War II, the Vietnam War and the advent of globalisation.

She told The Weekly she’s unsure what allowed her to live to 100, but her love of singing and reading certainly contributed.

Mrs Feltham said she was surprised by the number of visitors she had for her special day.

“I knew there’d be a few people, but I didn’t know there would be that many,” she said.

Her daughter Joy contacted The Weekly to inform the community of her mother’s story and centenary day.

“I think some of the highlights of life for mum were her marriage and having children, of which she had three boys and myself,” she said.

Mrs Feltham was born and raised on a farm in Holbrook, NSW, where she recalls having a “huge amount of work to do on a daily basis”.

After her marriage, she moved to Sydney for a while but eventually moved back to Holbrook before making her final move to Murwillumbah 59 years ago.

“Mum lived a lot of her early life selfsufficient on a farm,” Joy said.

Isabel Lydia Ellen Feltham celebrated her 100th birthday this week

“She was also an avid volunteer for Meals on Wheels Murwillumbah and I believe she was one of the longest serving volunteers there.”

While she did not travel around the world, Mrs Feltham saw a lot of Australia and enjoyed a happy and healthy life in the Tweed Valley.

Never a smoker and only the occasional wine drinker, Mrs Feltham said she was “unsure” what the secret to a long life is, but it appears remaining active in the community and keeping an active mind have certainly helped her along the way.

Mrs Feltham received a letter from both the Governor General and Queen Elizabeth II.

Use the experts for your elbow concerns weakness in her hand, which was initially likely attributed to the fracture.

It was important to determine if a UNE was present (or if all of the symptoms were attributable to the fracture), whether the only site of injury was at the shoulder and whether surgery was likely to assist.

The practice Neurologist suspected that a UNE co-existed with her fracture, as the symptoms in her fourth and fifth fingers emerged only after her elbow was kept flexed in a sling and not after the original injury.

NCS testing was then conducted on her neighbouring nerves to rule out similar conditions. These results were normal, rather than supporting a UNE diagnosis.

To determine if the UNE was in her shoulder or elbow, NCS was then conducted on her ulnar nerve, moving from the wrist up towards her shoulder. Results were normal from her wrist up to her mid-forearm, with poor responses at her elbow, returning to normal towards her shoulder. This indicated a clear UNE. Further EMG was not required.

Surgery was recommended, which would likely see the patient recover in full.

ULNAR NEUROPATHY at the elbow (UNE), or Cubital Tunnel Syndrome, is the second most prevalent form of peripheral nerve entrapment (after median neuropathy at the wrist) and occurs when the ulnar nerve becomes compromised at the elbow.

There are several potential sites of entrapment along the ulnar nerve; however, it’s most vulnerable to compression at the elbow, where it travels through a narrow space with a lack of protective muscle.

Enlargements, tears, deformity or trauma to the elbow can all increase the nerve’s susceptibility to an UNE and/or dislocation.

UNE symptoms may include elbow pain (commonly with trauma) and an impaired sense of touch (often after prolonged/ awkward positioning, such as in a sling).

Conversely, there may be no pain at all.

If the UNE is severe, hand muscles can become weak and wasted.

Numbness or tingling sensations of the fourth and fifth fingers also support a diagnosis of UNE. Corbett Neurophysiology Services provides premium quality, bulk billed NCS and EMG testing, with no long waiting periods and has been servicing the local community for more than 20 years.

Results are immediately explained to you by the Neurologist and are sent to your referring doctor within 24 hours.

The practice recently tested a 71-year-old woman who presented with a fracture in eight places in her right shoulder, after a fall while gardening.

She presented with numbness in her fourth and fifth fingers - classic UNE symptoms - as well as a ‘trigger’ finger and general

By Jonathon Howard MURWILLUMBAH LOCAL Marie Rogers lives with several lung diseases and is eager to attend an upcoming Lung Foundation Australia seminar taking place at Tweed Heads Bowls Club on Wednesday, July 24.

Almost one in three Australians has a lung disease be it lung cancer, Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD), or Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis.

Despite the prevalence of lung disease, there is little investment in research to improve treatment, support, care and outcomes for those impacted.

The seminar will run from 10am to 12.30pm and will include Clinical Nurse Consultant Judy Murrells, as well as Senior Cardiorespiratory Physiotherapists Nicole Harley and Gemma Baxter, who will present airway clearance techniques that you can do at home to help you breathe easier every day.

Mrs Rogers said she was eager to find out more about the latest lung health advancements and treatments and she’s encouraging other residents with lung conditions to attend.

Mrs Rogers said she has lived with COPD for the past three years and has also been living with chronic asthma since she was young.

“To keep my condition at bay, I try to keep fit through walking and exercise classes,” she said.

“I also like to keep active even when I’m not feeling well, as I find my fitness can subside very quickly.”

Mrs Rogers said she also liked to remain educated about her condition to prevent any exacerbation of COPD.

“I believe it’s important to maintain your fitness as you lose it very quickly, but you can’t overdo it,” she said.

The Lung Foundation Australia event will present a range of information that Mrs Rogers feels could help improve her knowledge and in turn improve her situation.

“Knowledge is power when it comes to your health and I believe this is an extremely important event for anyone living with a lung condition,” she said.

“I’d encourage other locals to come along and find out more about their lung condition, which can be a huge help for your own situation or to understand a family member’s condition.”

Lung Foundation Australia’s Live Well, Breathe Better Education Seminar offers people living with a lung disease the opportunity to meet local experts and hear tips and advice to help you live well with your condition.

The cost of the seminar is $15 and to book please contact Lung Foundation Australia on 1800 654 301.

Tweed Shire not immune to Essential Energy job cuts Nominate BEATS People’s Choice

By Jonathon Howard ESSENTIAL ENERGY has confirmed it will begin job cuts in mid-August with the Tweed Shire not immune from the pool of 182 employees set to receive the bad news.

A company spokesperson said the energy giant could not rule out future job cuts as power pricing continues to drive the company’s structure.

There are currently 80 Essential Energy employees in the Tweed Shire and it was unknown at the time of print whether any locals will be impacted by the cuts.

“The exact locations and number of employees impacted will be determined through the consultation process,” an Essential Energy spokesperson said.

In a statement to The Weekly, an Essential Energy spokesperson said the company was committed to maintaining downward pressure on the network component of electricity pricing.

“The safety of our employees and the communities we serve will always be a fundamental priority as we undertake these changes to our business,” the spokesperson said.

“Over the next three to five years, Essential Energy will progress a series of programs and initiatives to deliver a better service at lower cost.

“As we drive efficiencies in our business, we will also be ensuring that we have the right size workforce across our service territory.”

The spokesperson said the changes will allow the company to continue to deliver the highest quality of service its customers “at a lower cost”.

“All employees affected by the changes will be fully supported through the transition,” the spokesperson said.

Meanwhile, power industry unions have reached an in principle agreement with Essential Energy in the Fair Work Commission that will ensure the company pauses job cuts until further information is provided to workers and additional consultation takes place.

The agreement means no jobs will be lost before mid-August, with unions given an opportunity to propose alternative cost saving measures and initiatives that could avert the need for redundancies.

State Member for Lismore Janelle Saffin said she was outraged by the job cuts.

“It is the height of hypocrisy for Nationals MPs like John Barilaro and Chris Gulaptis to claim they are fighting against Essential Energy’s regional job cuts,” she said.

Ms Saffin said the Nationals allowed Essential Energy to be corporatised “so they can bleat all they like but lost their say in the matter when they abandoned regional and rural New South Wales”.

“The Nationals’ excuse was that a Restart fund would be set up from the proceeds of the sale of poles and wires, and that regional and rural NSW would get 30 per cent of the proceeds annually,” Ms Saffin said.

“They never even delivered and failed regional and rural NSW. The Auditor General has showed year after year since 2011 that Restart has not met the Nationals’ 30 per cent target – it was 17 per cent last year.

“The Nationals lost three seats at the recent State election, which is why John Barilaro is now posturing that his hapless party is suddenly independent of the Liberals.”

Ms Saffin said she was saddened to hear of Essential Energy’s plan to sack more workers as it was a cruel

blow to them and their families and would make it harder on remaining workers maintaining or upgrading infrastructure.

“Essential Energy, which operates electricity poles and wires across 95 per cent of the state, has gutted more than 2,000 jobs from their ranks since 2015,” Ms Saffin said.

“It is hard enough to get permanent roles in the regions and while jobs have grown in the city it has been slow here.

“I shall fight tooth and nail with the Electrical Trades Union for affected workers but once a government asset is sold they can get away with sacking workers and providing less service – that will always be the result.

“It is the Nationals who have to be held to account; we know the Liberals will sell off the kitchen sink with over $70 billion worth of public assets already gone and more in the pipeline.”

By Megan Albany WITH THE nominations for the Business Excellence Awards Tweed Shire (BEATS) now closed, BEATS coorganiser and Mount Warning Tours owner Michael Simmons has spoken about the importance of the arts for the business community in the region.

BEATS will be hosting the Sponsors and Supporters Launch this Friday, July 12, at Bacaro in the M|Arts Precinct from 9.30am to 11am.

Mr Simmons said the choice of venue was a direct reflection of the excellence of arts businesses in the Tweed.

“We’ve chosen to have it at the Murwillumbah Arts Precinct after the success of the Murwillumbah Arts Trail,” Mr Simmons said.

“We’re having a fresh look at BEATS and the connection between the business and the arts community which is particularly strong in Murwillumbah.

“In this area we have a greater concentration of artists than any other area in Australia and you can see that in the number of arts-based businesses that have opened in Murwillumbah.

“One of the best visitor experiences in the Northern Rivers is the Tweed Regional Gallery and I really feel that has been the catalyst for why a lot of artists have come into the area and opened up shop so that is why we are trying to have a different look at the business excellence awards.”

Nominations for the awards closed on Monday, July 8, but Mr Simmons said he couldn’t comment on how many of the nominations were arts-based businesses.

“The entries are completed through the NSW chamber portal, so the local organising committee don’t actually see the entries which are judged independently by judges from Southern Cross University,” he said.

“It is important to have that separation because we think it is very important with any type of award that judging is done independently.”

Mr Simmons said there will be an announcement next week about how to vote for the BEATS People’s Choice Award which is sponsored by The Weekly and that tickets are now available for the August 3 Awards ceremony where winners will be announced.

Cattle producers asked to reassess for winter

The Condong Mill team are delighted to be named industry award finalists

Low GI sugar nominated for industry award

By Jonathon Howard A REVOLUTION in sugar production through Sunshine Sugar's Low GI sugar, which is produced at Condong Sugar Mill, is continuing to attract the attention of consumers as well as the food and beverage industry.

The latest highlight for this locally grown and produced sugar is the naming as a finalist in the coveted Food & Beverage Industry Awards 2019.

The Food & Beverage Industry Awards were established in 2004 to recognise and reward best practice and innovation in food and beverage manufacturing in Australia and New Zealand.

Sunshine Sugar CEO, Chris Connors, said the Low GI Sugar innovation is an important part of Sunshine Sugar’s business strategy.

“It not only provides a new product for us to market, but it provides choice for those customers looking for a healthier, all-natural ingredient option,” he said.

The Low GI Nucane sugar is a 100 per cent natural, low GI cane sugar that is more slowly digested, absorbed and metabolised, which results in a lower and slower rise in blood glucose.

Now in their 16th year, the Food & Beverage Industry Awards have become a pivotal event in the food and beverage industry's calendar, bringing manufacturers, large and small, together to celebrate some of the latest and greatest new product launches.

Sunshine Sugar's Low GI sugar has been named as a finalist in the Ingredient Innovation category. Winners will be announced at the Awards Gala Dinner which is being held on Thursday, July 18, at Doltone House, Pyrmont.

NORTH COAST Local Land Services is urging Tweed Shire beef producers to “seriously reassess” their current situation for the remaining winter months heading into spring.

North Coast Local Land Services said the effect of a dry summer and autumn has “left the majority of the region with much lower pasture, and water levels than usual”.

“Cattle are now heading into the hardest part of the year with minimal reserves,” the media statement said.

Senior Land Services Officer Nathan Jennings said despite decent falls around much of the north coast, we were yet to receive anything substantial.

“The high rainfall totals around have actually further reduced the quality of any remaining tropical pastures with some low-lying areas inundated,” he said.

“Any further rainfall in the next couple of months will have little effect on tropical pastures as growth will remain restricted by cold temperatures and short winter days.”

Mr Jennings said the stock feed market remains under pressure with demand often exceeding supply across the state, causing an impact on price.

“Many producers are already supplementary feeding,” he said.

“Winter and spring on the north coast are a tough time in an average year, so going in with short pastures, and limited water on the back of a dry year adds significant challenges.

“It's critical when you are doing the budgets you fully cost the long-term needs of your stock because there are no guarantee conditions are going to ease soon.

“Every enterprise is different, but a hope for the best approach could lead to disaster."

Mr Jennings is now urging producers to reassess cattle body condition, pasture and water availability, and most importantly their finances.

“For some, checking and adjusting the budget will help make some sound decisions very quickly,” he said.

“The class of cattle (dry, pregnant, or lactating) and their condition will influence the amount and quality of feed needed.

“Cattle in poor body condition can suffer cold stress if wet from rain or frost.

“Animals need more feed to maintain their body temperature in cold weather.

“I’m seeing a lot of breeding herds being fed hay or silage, yet the cows are continuing to lose weight because their energy demand still exceeds what is being provided, remember the quality of the feed (energy, protein and fibre) is more important than quantity alone.”

North Coast Local Land Services general manager, Louise Orr, said the local team are ready to help landholders make informed decisions.

“The Beef Cattle Health and Husbandry guide available from North Coast Local Land Services has a guide to body condition scoring beef cattle, as well as nutritional and water requirements to help producers in assessing and making decisions,” she said.

“Our sustainable agriculture team also produce a regular stockfeed update to help producers to make better-informed decisions.

“Regardless of your planned approach for the coming months take the time to check the potential impacts of your choices against your budget, then set a date to reassess, act and go again.”

Murwillumbah local receives top Vietnamese award Wallaby scared into surf

By Jonathon Howard MURWILLUMBAH LOCAL and outgoing Australian Ambassador to Vietnam, Craig Chittick OAM, has received a Friendship Order of the Vietnamese State at a ceremony in Hanoi on Wednesday, June 26.

Proud local father and avid reader of The Weekly, Ian Chittick told The Weekly about his son’s special award as well as some of his background.

“I’m told that the only other recipient of this honour is Dame Marie Bashir (former Governor General of NSW) and this honour will look good beside his existing OAM,” Ian said.

“Craig was born in Murwillumbah Hospital and raised in Murwillumbah in his early days, before graduating from Sydney University and joining the Department of Foreign Affairs in Canberra.”

Ian said Craig’s overseas service has included three years in the Australian Embassy in Jakarta, Indonesia, where he was awarded the Order of Australia Medal for his services during the Bali bombings.

“His next posting was three years as Australia’s Deputy High Commissioner to Malaysia in Kuala Lumpur,” he said.

“After this posting he was appointed as Australia’s Ambassador People Smuggling Issues assisting Scott Morrison stop the people smuggling boats.

“He is about to complete his threeyear posting in Vietnam.

“He has many family and friends who live in the Tweed Valley.”

Vietnamese Deputy Minister of Foreign Affairs, Nguyen Quoc Dung, praised Ambassador Chittick OAM on his active and significant contributions

Australian Ambassador to Vietnam, Craig Chittick OAM with Vietnamese Deputy Minister of Foreign Affairs Nguyen Quoc Dung. Inset is the Friendship Order medal

to developing the Vietnam-Australia relationship “in a more trust-worthy, practical and effective manner, especially the establishment of the bilateral strategic partnership in March 2018”.

He also acknowledged his efforts in organising many high-level visits and meetings between the two countries, as well as bilateral cooperation mechanisms at both central and grassroots levels.

“The diplomat has helped to step up cooperation in different spheres, especially national defence and security, trade, development

cooperation, education-training and people-to-people exchanges, as well as collaboration between the foreign ministries of the two countries,” Mr Nguyen said.

“For his part, the ambassador pledged that in any position, he will make greater efforts to contribute to enhancing the Australia-Vietnam strategic partnership.”

Ambassador Chittick was honoured to receive the prestigious Friendship Order, conferred by President Nguyen Phu Trong and presented by Vice Minister Nguyen Quoc Dung, at the Government Guest House.

A WALLABY believed to have been scared by a dog on the beach at Hastings Point, escaped into heavy surf on Saturday morning, July 6.

Locals who were on the beach at the time think the animal may have been on the dunes when it was frightened by the dog.

A woman who was walking on the south side of Hastings Point told The Weekly she saw a man playing with a dog that was barking and then saw the wallaby take off into the sea.

The woman said it appeared the man had the dog under control and doesn’t think it chased the wallaby but that the barking frightened the animal.

There was a heavy swell running and the tide was high and the woman said the wallaby made it about 50-metres out through the white water to the first set of heavily dumping breakers before being forced back to shore.

Once back on the beach the wallaby remained in the water, continuously being battered by waves, looking towards the dunes but afraid to leave the relative safety of the water.

As it sat and watched, a dog approached in the distance from the south, off-leash and running up the beach with its owners far behind.

Some walkers approached the frightened wallaby which suddenly fled down the beach in the direction of the other dog, which was running up into the dunes and some distance from its owners.

Fortunately, the wallaby turned and went up into the bushes before the dog saw it much to the relief of those watching on the beach.

According to Tweed Shire Council rules dogs are not allowed off-leash on some beaches, including south of Hastings Point headland and also in estuaries where many critically endangered and endangered species breed and live.

They are allowed to the high-water mark only and access to dune areas is prohibited.

A map of dog walking areas and leash-free beaches is available on the Tweed Shire Council website at https://www. tweed.nsw.gov.au/Dogs

Family returns 18 years after hair-raising birth Local Graeme Stevenson with acclaimed artist Michael Upton

Artist needs help to journey home

Tweed Heads Firefighter Greg Mackay with Jenny Noble, Faith Noble and Georgie Bowe with her two children. Inset was a photo taken by the family at the hospital.

“It felt a little out of the ordinary to be at a fire station, but in a situation like that we just needed to find somewhere safe.”

When asked why the family decided to stop at the fire station, Georgie said she noticed the uniforms.

“I just saw the uniforms and thought there’s a place to stop with help,” she said.

And she was right, with Greg kicking into action and offering his assistance immediately.

“The professionalism kicked in and while I had some basic medical

training, delivering a baby was beyond my skill set, but I would help in anyway possible,” he said.

“I think I helped where I could and fortunately there were no complications and Faith entered the world without any issues.”

Greg said he was delighted to see Faith again, who the firefighters named as an acronym for Fire Assisted Infant Tweed Heads (Faith).

“It’s great to finally meet Faith and the family and I was so happy to offer assistance to Jenny,” he said.

A SPEICAL fundraising event to assist well known artist Michael Upton to travel home as he battles cancer will take place at the Imperial Hotel on Friday, July 12, from 6pm.

The event will attempt to raise enough funds for Michael to travel home to Birmingham in England.

Close friend and Colour In Your Life curator Graeme Stevenson said he was saddened to hear his good friend Michael is battling stage four cancer.

“We’d love for as many people as possible to come together at the Imperial Hotel tomorrow (Friday, July 12) to support Michael’s flight home,” he said.

Mr Upton is a well-known wildlife artist who originally immigrated from Birmingham in England to Australia.

He has travelled extensively and has photographed and studied many endangered species throughout the world.

Mr Upton featured on the second series of Colour In Your Life.

By Jonathon Howard THE STORY of Tweed Heads Firefighter, Greg Mackay, who delivered a baby in the back of a car while parked at the Tweed Heads Fire Station is one that touched the hearts of many locals back in 2001.

Now, after almost 18 years, the family returned to the Tweed Heads Fire Station to meet with the man who helped deliver Faith Noble into the world.

The story started with mum Jenny being rushed to The Tweed Hospital on August 8, 2001, by her daughter Georgie Bowe, who was in a state of shock to say the least.

“It was such a hectic day,” Georgie said.

“We were rushing to the hospital and caught every red light.

“Mum just said it’s happening now, and we noticed the Tweed Heads Fire Station and some people in uniforms, so I turned in there and ran for help.”

Faith was Jenny’s third child, which made the situation slightly less stressful for firefighter Greg, who was pulled into a birthing assistants’ role.

“We pulled the car in and mum dropped her pants, just as her water broke,” Georgie said.

“I was in shock as mum was spread out in the back seat towards the road and the baby was on the way.”

Firefighters were on the phone to The Tweed Hospital with an ambulance on route, but baby Faith could not wait any longer.

Jenny said the family had little option but to find the nearest place to park.

“It was only a matter of minutes after my water broke that Faith was born and it was all over, must have taken about six minutes,” she said.

ONCE AGAIN the talk this morning reading this is about Origin 3 and who are the series winners.

It simply is a great time of year. I’m writing this Tuesday morning and I believe NSW will be victorious. I do hope Qld can win but my thoughts centre around a Sydney game, NSW in form, Qld without Ponga and a few changes and the time is right.

Pearce gets his opportunity and will be a real focus for NSW, he is in sublime touch in clubland and if he brings that to game 3 the demons might be gone.

Players will be required to back up this weekend and it will be interesting to see if some are rested or returned as some clubs have battled a bit through the Origin period.

The Storm sit six clear and will take a tonne of catching. The Sharks, Knights and Rabbits have struggled in the last month and will need to return to the winners circle quickly. The good thing about Origin is seeing the emergence of new young talent and Xavier Coates is one of these. From Seagulls 18’s as state and national champions, to Qld u/18’s Man of the match, to an international debut for PNG and then an NRL debut and magic try with his first touch, it has

been some six weeks for the young fella who has a bright future.

The vultures are circling at the Titans, yet they sit only two wins ahead of the powerhouse Broncos who snuck an unlikely victory with the baby broncos 2.0 on the weekend, it was more an example of the problems at Cronulla currently.

I had an extremely enjoyable week at Redcliffe for the Australian Carnival and was lucky enough to be involved with NSWCCC who were crowned National Champions after a tough final against NSW Combined Independent Schools who were playing in their first ever final.

There was some real quality young kids

and as you can imagine every NRL team scout was there looking for the next big thing.

Mustangs were brought back to earth against ladder leaders Ballina in the mud on Sunday and will need to regroup this week against a dangerous Northern United in Lismore on Saturday. The Stangs then host Cudgen in the local derby and charity round match and will be looking for two wins to cement a top two spot.

The Group 18 JRL u/14’s and 15’s squads have been selected and commence training next Wednesday at South Tweed at 6pm.

There is so much to celebrate, the end of the financial year, the beginning of a better financial year. Most of all skip the Christmas rush with your friends and celebrate before it all gets too crazy.

The Venue – Join us in Mavis’ Barn, all dressed up with Christmas party love The Music – ‘The Swamps’ Rockin Blues & Country with a twist

By Megan Albany AWARD-WINNING CHEF Ben Devlin has opened a new contemporary Australian restaurant, Pipit, in Pottsville, and it’s a dream come true.

Originally from Byron Bay, the chef returned to the Northern Rivers in 2015 as the executive chef at Paper Daisy in Cabarita before deciding to take the leap into setting up a restaurant of his own.

“Every great chef I have had the privilege to work alongside has been an owner as well and that has inspired me on my own journey,” he said.

Mr Devlin said he will be taking advantage of the local farmers and producers in the region for his seasonally-changing al-a-carte menu which will feature 12 dishes, with options of four or seven course set tasting menus.

Sommelier Matthew Love (ex- Tonka and Culter & Co) has joined forces with Mr Devlin to ensure the wine list stays focused on Australian and international wineries located close to coastlines where mineral content and

saline soils help varieties that pair well with the cuisine.

Having led previous restaurants to being recognised by two hats as well as prominent awards such as Regional Restaurant of the Year and listings in the top 50 restaurants in Australia, the chef is hoping to achieve the same recognition for excellence in his own establishment.

However despite his accolades for finedining, Mr Devlin said he is aiming for an ambience that reflects the coastal lifestyle and trades formalities for friendliness. “ My vision for Pipit is a feeling of happiness - a space that welcomes the people inside it, leading to more happiness and connections to our community,” Mr Devlin said.

As part of the Taste Tweed Festival that celebrates the local food scene from July 5 to 14, Pipit will be hosting a festival dinner on Thursday, July 11.

Tickets are $78 for a four course set menu or $128 including wine pairing and are available online via www.pipitrestaurant.com

Seeking refuge in art and poetry can’t always see this invisible cage that surrounds us.

“I am also sharing another poem which is very hope filled and is about how we need to stay beautiful amongst all the ugliness we see in the world and to spread beautiful wings.”

Apart from poetry, Ms Dawson said the Resistance exhibition will also feature art made by refugees and asylum seekers.

“There’s one video installation, there’s one interactive installation where people can get their photograph taken in front of a set of wings and there are linocuts and some representational paintings,” said Ms Dawson.

The Resistance exhibition runs from July 14 to 28, at the Garden Gallery at 8 Bagoo Ave Murwillumbah. For more information contact Karen on 0449 719 617.

Amy Hanson - Young Reader from Murwillumbah will be one of the local young people reading poetry by refugees.

How would the world be without the Beatles songs? Culturally, musically and emotionally poorer - I am sure that everyone who has ever heard any of the Beatles’ songs would agree.

Surely Danny Boyle, the visionary filmmaker behind Slumdog Millionaire, would agree as well.

Danny Boyle’s new film Yesterday combines the classic story of a frustrated dreamer with romantic complications, and the apocalyptic vision of a world without the magic of the Beatles songs. The protagonist is Jack, a Londoner of Indian ethnicity whose dreams of making it big in the music world are kept alive only by the devotion of his childhood friend Ellie, who volunteers as his manager. Jack is lost in his dreams and doesn’t realize that Ellie has been in love with him for years. Everything changes though when Jack has a road accident and when he recovers soon realizes that he is apparently the only person in the world who knows and remembers the Beatles and their songs…

Yesterday is obviously capitalizing on the popularity of the musical film genre at the moment. After the incredible success of Bohemian Rhapsody a string of feature films and documentaries about contemporary musical legends is being released with mixed results varying from mediocre to excellent.

Get ready to watch a few more before the end of the year.

There are many movies that use amnesia as a narrative gimmick, but normally it would be an individual having the problem, not the whole world..! After Jack’s realization that he can change history – his own first of all, and the history of popular music worldwide - situations ensue that vary from comical to sentimental to semi-tragic, but the tone is kept light throughout the film. Jack’s encounter with the cynicism of the music business is especially poignant and funny.

To capture the essence of the poet’s voices local Murwillumbah school children will be performing some of the works.

Sarah Temporal, who coordinates the monthly Poets Out Loud open mic night in Murwillumbah believes the young students are well placed to read the emotional works.

“It will be a very special reading because we are talking about people who have literally written their way out of incarceration and found a channel for their voices to be heard by a public who wouldn’t otherwise know what was happening to them,” Ms Dawson said.

“I know from working with young people that they often care deeply about these issues and, like the refugees, they often have voices that aren’t heard in the community.”

Sahar Salahshori was a child refugee who came to Australia from Iran when she was six years old. The thirty-sevenyear-old is the only poet who will be reading her own work on the night.

“I have some very specific memories from when I was a child of people’s homes and war sirens as we left in the middle of the Iranian war.

“I could feel the anxiety of the people, but I remember not really knowing what was going on.”

“One of the poems I will be reading is about how you can see the difference in people’s lives who have seen war and struggle and how when you look in peoples, eyes here that you can see a sort of innocence which is why they

By Megan Albany THE GARDEN Gallery in Murwillumbah will be presenting an evening of art and poetry written by refugee and asylum seeker artists on Saturday, July 13, at 6pm.

The reading, which celebrates the work of poets including those detained on Manus Island, is part of an exhibition called Resistance. Entry to the poetry reading is $10 including wine and nibbles with fifty percent of profits going towards the Uki Refugee Project.

“I wanted to do something to help the Uki Refugee Project so I contacted Writing Through Fences which is an organisation that’s been working with detainees with the specific intent of getting them to write poetry and publish it,” Garden Gallery Director Karen Dawson said.

“Two of the main poets whose work we are going to feature are now not in detention anymore and one of them is earning a living as a performance poet.

“One of them was on Manus Island for two years and the other woman was about 18 months on Christmas island.

“Most of the poetry is about their experience of going from their experience in detention to a more hopeful perspective on life.

“In the beginning we talk more about the despair and the sense of being overlooked then towards the end of the evening we’ll be looking more at the positive aspects of becoming assimilated.”

“When I started my career you were waiting to be talent scouted by an A&R person from a major record label, whereas a lot of artists now, including my oldest son and his band, have done all their recording at home because the industry has pressed reset on the way people make a living from music.”

As a father of four who has children starting to follow in his footsteps, Blundell said he is all too aware of the importance of surviving the music industry both financially and emotionally.

“I’ve dealt with a lot of young artists over the past ten years and I always tell them that survival is a huge part of the music industry.

“Years ago my father said to me that the life I had led as a child on the property hadn’t really prepared me for being on stage but I told him it couldn’t have been better because in the country you just have to accept it when it doesn’t rain and there is nothing you can do about it.

“So that’s what I say to young artists, that they have to put up with the fact that sometimes even if what they are producing is great work, that they can’t control it if their music doesn’t get attention.

“The only thing you can control is doing your best as there are so many things you have no control over.

“The most important thing in your life is having a stable emotional base and support from people that love you, that’s as important as anything you’ll do for your creativity.”

While Blundell is the hero for many aspiring country artists he said the highlights of his career have actually been the times when he has had the opportunity to meet heroes of his own.

“When I met Joni Mitchell at a cafe in Los Angeles it was the only time I was ever in my whole life rendered speechless.

“My other two highlights were supporting Kris Kristofferson on his Australian tour because he’s my idol as a writer and performing at Way Out West with Busby Marou as I’m an ardent Queenslander so that was a major career highlight.”

G IG GUIDE

By Megan Albany COUNTRY MUSIC star James Blundell has often been called the ‘real deal’ not only because of his talent but because he is one of the few country singers that actually continues to make a living off the land.

This week the multi-award winning artist, who will be performing a free ninety minute concert at Seagulls at Tweed Heads West on Saturday, July 13, took time to talk to The Weekly before heading off on his quad bike to muster cattle on his property in Stanthorpe, Queensland.

“I am living in two vastly different worlds,” Mr Blundell said.

“When you live on a property you get up at daylight and are in bed by 8.30 at night whereas when you hit the road you are often just getting on stage by 8.30, so I’m always trying to balance between a lifestyle that has huge physical activity and one which involves lots of sitting in the car on the road.”

The singer/songwriter who found mainstream success in 1992 with the single, Way Out West, said that balancing both worlds has helped him find inspiration to continue to write music after more than 30 years in the industry.

“While your hands are busy working your mind is often very active so most of the formative parts of my writing have been done while I am doing manual labour on the property.”

Blundell will be performing a showcase of over three decades of his music this Saturday and will be joined on stage by his 21-year-old son Briar, who is also a musician.

“When my oldest isn’t working with his band we are on tour together,” he said.

“This will be an intimate show and the beauty of it is that Briar has grown up with my entire repertoire from my first album in 1988 to my latest body of work that I am working on now.”

The legendary singer, who was the first inductee into the Country Music Channel Hall of Fame will also be joined at Seagulls by up and coming country artist, Chloe Styler, whose single, When Your Light Burns, was recently awarded the 2019 Tamworth Songwriters Association Award for Alternative Country Song of The Year.

Blundell said the young singer is one of a number of new country artists coming up through the ranks who are negotiating an industry that is vastly different from the one in which he started his career.

“I’m in my thirty second year of being a professional musician and it’s a really vastly different industry now.

“I have a lot of empathy for people who are just starting out.

Indulge in the best of the worst films at Trashfest 2019

By Megan Albany CULT FILM director Andrew Leavold has dug deep into the Trash Video vaults of his legendary Brisbane cult movie store to create a two hour mash-up of obscure international cinema.

Mr Leavold who ran Trash Video from 1995 to 2010 in West End, will be on hand to introduce Trashfest 2019 at the Regent Cinema this Sunday, July 14, at 4pm.

The festival will feature quirky clips from Bollywood and Nollywood (Nigerian DIY cinema) as well as vintage ads, trailers, brain-numbing Christian shorts, spookshow weirdies, a Filipino midget disco number and Turksploitation (Turkish Star Wars).

Other cult-worthy treasures unearthed by Mr Leavold will include the North Korean Godzilla, wrestling Mexican Mummies and of course plenty of atrociously dubbed kung fu.

The director, who has spent a lifetime obsessed by film and video, is best known for compiling and editing the cult documentary The Search for Weng Weng, which documents his personal quest to find the truth behind the James Bond midget superstar Weng Weng.

Mr Leavold, who has spent over thirty years looking for the best of the worst films ever made, will also be launching his latest

venture, Film Safari which offers film buffs the opportunity to join him on a tour of film locations in Spain and Mexico this October. Future Safaris are planned for Italy, Cambodia, Japan, West Africa, and the Philippines.

Tickets cost adult $15, concession $12.

Alpaca Show at Murwillumbah Showground a huge success despite rain

By Jonathon Howard ONE OF the most adorable creatures, the alpaca, was on centre stage for the Alpaca Show at the Murwillumbah Showground on Saturday, June 29.

Event organisers and participants from Lougueville Park Alpaca Stud Liz Cole and Rosemary Eva said there was a great variety of alpacas on show this year.

“Exhibitors came from South East Qld, Stanthorpe and from New England,” Liz said.

“We were pleased with the numbers despite the weather conditions.”

Liz said it was fortunate the Murwillumbah Showground has an undercover facility which allowed for the judging to continue unhindered.

“The quality was high this year and I believe it reached the same standard as those seen on the national stage,” she said.

Campbell family enjoyed the gentle nature of the alpacas

Featured Business

G’day, my name is Craig Byrnes. I am the owner operator of Casuarina Tree Solutions. I have worked in the arboriculture and tree industry for over 15 years.

Whilst most of my recent experience is cutting vegetation around power lines, I grew up in Burringbar on a family farm

AIR CONDITIONING

where I started using chainsaws as a teenager. I then worked in my parents’ nursery business where I developed an understanding and keen appreciation of all things that grow.

Six months ago I decided I didn’t want to work for a big company any longer and decided to embark on my own path,

starting Casuarina Tree Solutions. My goal is to provide a more professional, tailored service to customers that is a cut above the average tree lopper business in terms of service, cost and quality of work.

No job is too big or small for me. I have extensive experience in a variety of tree cutting jobs that are basic to the larger, more technical removals in difficult, hardto-reach places. I am attentive to detail, reliable, reasonably priced, tidy, and provide a timely service.

I love my work, the outdoors, and helping you achieve the aesthetic goals for your property. So, please contact me at any time on my mobile phone number 0408 344 412. I am more than happy to discuss your property’s needs and the solutions I can provide.

HOT WATER

Has Your Hot Water System Been Checked Lately?

Ever Heard of a Sacrificial Anode?

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.

FOR A LIMITED TIME we will check your anode in the Tweed & Gold Coast area FREE OF CHARGE.

“REMEMBER YOU CAN’T LOSE, NO ANODE REPLACEMENT NO CHARGE”

Colin James Leslight

SRI SULOCANA DEVI-DASI

Late of Murwillumbah.

Passed away peacefully on Saturday 6th July 2019.

Aged 80 Years.

Dearly loved Son of Cliff & Ettie (both dec’d).

Loved Father and Father-in-law of Chris & Belinda.

Devoted Poppy of Abigail and Daniel.

Cared for by Doreen Leslight.

Loved Brother of Brian (dec’d), Pamela (dec’d), Alan, John, Joan, and their extended families.

Family and Friends are warmly invited to attend Colin’s Requiem Mass to be held at the Sacred Heart Catholic Church, Murwillumbah, on Thursday 11th July 2019, at 10.00 am.

Ph: (02) 6672 2144 Murwillumbah

Sandra Janette Maloney 27/06/1950 – 06/07/2018 A saintly personality, who externally was as soft as a rose, gentle as a breeze, always very sweet and humility personified. Internally, she was a tiger, fiercely destroying illusion, relentlessly pursuing Spiritual Truth, Reality the Beautiful.

A beloved disciple of Srila B.R. Sridhar- Dev Goswami.

The example of her uncompromising mood of devotion and spiritual practice will be a lasting legacy for all who knew her. Such souls are very rare in this world. When will we get the opportunity to associate with such a personality again ?

JBAY UNDERWAY WELL THE perfection of Jeffreys Bay will be part of the stroppy to decide the 2019 Men’s and Women’s World Titles.

It is a tight race in both men and women, particularly now in the men’s, with John John Florence withdrawing with a knee injury, he did have a big lead, but now he has withdrawn for the rest of the season after a full knee reconstruction, the door has opened right up for the rest of the field.

Now, World No. 2 Kolohe Andino, No. 3 Filipe Toledo, and No. 4 Jordy Smith are all ready to capitalize on Florence’s absence to overtake the lead.

The Women’s 2019 World Title race is heating up with five events complete so far. Sally Fitzgibbons is the new Jeep Frontrunner for the women’s field with Carissa Moore in second and Stephanie Gilmore in third.

Gilmore is also the defending event Champion. Gilmore has yet to drop below the Final Series this season and will battle in the Supertubes lineup to

reclaim the Jeep Leader Jersey from Fitzgibbons.

“This is a really important stop for all of us on Tour,” said Gilmore. “This year we’ve had a different winner at every single stop, so this event is going to be crucial. Whoever can get their second win is really going to set the pace for the rest of the year and probably head off into the lead. This is going to be a tough event. I also think that now that the girls have had a little bit of experience from last year, the level will get better and the girls will be surfing the wave better. I know I have changed my equipment a little bit more, going off of my experience from last year. I am looking forward to it and hopefully, I can get the second win before anyone else does.”

Filpe Toledo has dominated the Corona Open J-Bay in recent years with back-to-back wins in 2017 and 2018. He is fresh off a win at the Oi Rio Pro, where he successfully defended his title in Brasil and will hope to do the same in South Africa. Only Michael Peterson, Mark Richards, Andy Irons, and Kelly Slater have defended a men’s

CT event title three years in a row, and Toledo hopes to pull off the feat by the event’s close.

All the action is underway, and South Africa has the perfect time slot for viewers in Australia, action starting around 3pm AEST, just right to get back from work and put the feet up and watch the surfing. On Wednesday night it was split screen for me between the surfing and State of origin, you have to multi-task!!

Occy’s a Wrap, Groms off to Lennox

With the Tweed Coast invasion of grommets from all over the country and the world is over for now with the Occy Grom wrapping up as this article goes to print, and now they will be down to Lennox for the Skullcandy grom.

A very prestigious event, and one that has been won by World Champions including Stephanie Gilmore. I will get you a wrap up of results from the local grommets next week.

Enjoy the surfing and a few fun little waves over the weekend.

Catch you the waves!!

Between the Flags

Cudgen Headland SLSC - Keith Kennedy

THE CLUB this week is hosting the largest IRB Championships that Australia has hosted to date.

Competitor entries closed at the end of June and numbered 850 and with a few late will probably go to 900 which are about 30 per cent more than achieved in 2014 and 2017 when held at Kingscliff.

The four days of racing commence today (Thursday, July 11) with the inter-state teams and the inter-club starts at about 11am and go through to Sunday.

One hundred officials and staff will oversee the competition which is programmed to start at 7.30am each day. Nine containers of Club IRBs and equipment arrived last Tuesday and approximately 140 boats will be in use in the competition. The minimum cost of an IRB and motor is $17,000 and the craft will be held in a compound on the southern end of the clubhouse. Extra parking is organised on the northern end of the Kingscliff Bowls Club.

The club has to provide the duty boats for judges and transporting

By Jo Kennett BALLINA SEAGULLS have stamped their authority on the NRRRL with a 44-6 victory over second placed Murwillumbah Mustangs on Sunday, July 7, in what could only be described as shockingly wet conditions.

“There was about two foot of mud on the field and it was quite dangerous to be honest - it will take months for that field to recover,” Captain Caleb Howell said.

“We couldn’t hold on to the ball.

“It was shocking, you couldn’t sidestep, and the ball would go flying out with any decent contact.

“They completed every set so full credit to them. They forced more errors and held on to the ball.

“They handled the conditions better than us and they deserved the win, that’s for sure.

“We are just going to wipe that one.

“We have Northern United at home next week - they have some pretty magical footy when they are on, so our goal will be to try to hold onto the ball, so they don’t get the opportunity to do those things.

The Mares went down 12-4 to Ballina, who now sit one spot above them at seventh on the ladder.

The Mustangs Under 18s were the only winners, taking out the Seagulls 16-13

grand final for us is what we’re looking for him to do, to bring that real impact,” Kite said.

“I was happy with the defence and the mindset, but we kept them in the game through dropping the ball too much and they were good enough to be there at the end.

“They played with plenty of passion.”

The Raiderettes toughed it out for an 8-4 win in the Ladies League Tag with assistant coach Paul O’Brien saying the girls played well.

“It was very hard because there was a lot of penalties going both ways, so it was pretty disjointed,” he said.

“It disrupted a lot of the play but in general they just played really well.

“The refs started cracking down on surrendering and I believe they are going to crack down in future games which reduces the fluidity of the game so it will be interesting.”

Raiders reserve grade won 32-0 while the Under 18s went down to the Seagulls 42-0.

The Raiders take on Evans Head at home next week.

by The Swamps and at 7.30pm by the Smashed Crabs. Sunday night is always a night out for the competitors.

The Kingscliff & District Chamber of Commerce affirm their support for the event which supports the social, sporting and

business interests of Kingscliff and surrounding areas. Along with the competitors, officials, managers, mechanics and supporters well over 1,000 people will be in the area for the best part of a week.

Surf conditions caused the postponement of the ALBERT IRB set down for Brunswick last weekend. Our beach has held up well compared to the Gold Coast.

The Kayak raffle and two minor prizes will be drawn at the Club on Saturday at 6.00pm. Tickets are $5 and are available at the bar.

This weekend the NSW Pool Rescue Titles will be held at Woy Woy on the Central Coast.

Mustangs mud bath, Hornets go down to Byron and Raiders win

Tweed Coast Raiders

The Raiders took the win 18-10 over Mullumbimby despite the Giants coming back hard at the end.

A minute’s applause was held in honour of Mullumbimby hooker Tim Watkins who died tragically on June 23.

The Raiders came out firing with Daniel ‘Rocket’ Ross throwing a dummy pass and going in for an easy try.

Jimmy Armstrong scored next for Raiders to take it to 12-0 at half time with two Brayden Evans conversions and excellent defence from the Tweed Coast boys.

Evans scored eight minutes into the second half with a great run through the centre and converted his own try to take it to 18-0.

With six minutes to go the Giants stepped on the afterburners and scored two tries in two minutes to finish down 18-10.

Raiders coach Brent Kite said it was good to get another win.

“It was good to have Cale (Rowston) back, he’s one of our leaders really, what he did in that

Cudgen Hornets

A depleted Cudgen first grade side went down to Byron Bay 5424 at Byron.

Hornets captain Jake Sands said they started really well despite having players out.

“We had our three main forwards out and went into the game with a lot of fresh faces from reserve grade,” he said.

“We were going good for the first half and we were only down 16-14 at half time.

“Then in the second half they got off to a really good start and got four tries within about 15 minutes and a field goal.

“Todd Carney was back from injury and they obviously lifted for him and he directed all the players and did a good job.

“We got a couple of tries in the end, but it was far too late.

“Liam Hodges made his firstgrade debut and he played well.

“Byron were just better on the day. Now we need to win every game.

“We must win this weekend.

Kyogle is one point below us.”

Cudgen Ladies had a great 16-4 win against last year’s runners up.

“We came out strong, we worked to our strengths,” Captain Letitia Kelly said.

“We got two tries in the first half, the first one was in the first four

minutes of the game - I think it was 10-0 at half time.

“Our defence was good - we know what we need to do in regard to attack but we really had to concentrate on our defence because when we do that things fall into place.

“We have Kyogle next week and we know regardless of where teams are on the ladder, we go out thinking like every team is the top team, we are not complacent.

“It’s at home so we are happy with that. It always works to our advantage.”

Play of the day goes to Hornet’s mother/daughter combo Shontelle and Breanna Raymond who were photographed sliding fast first through a big puddle to celebrate their victory over the Red Devils and the devilishly difficult conditions.

Hornets had a huge 52-0 win over Byron while the Under 18s still hold top spot on the ladder after their 30-0 victory.
