driven decision to secure the future of the Northern Rivers, now and for generations to come.”

Tweed Water Alliance spokesperson Trevor White said the alliance would welcome any review into the extraction of water.

“But given the community concern of the water extraction and traffic concerns, we believe that the time is right for the minister to issue a directive to Tweed Shire Council to fast track the removal of permissibility of water mining from the Local Environment Plan,” Mr White said.

Minister Blair said the independent review will determine what impact the bottled water industry may have on groundwater supplies.

“I have asked the Chief Scientist & Engineer to investigate the sustainability of groundwater extraction in the Northern Rivers for bottling purposes,” he said.

“Water is a finite resource and we are completing this review to make sure that water remains available into the future in the Northern Rivers catchment for all purposes including stock and domestic users and for groundwater dependent ecosystems.”

The Chief Scientist & Engineer is expected to provide his initial report by early February 2019, with a final report to be published in mid-2019.

Councillors vote to ban water extraction but need approval

Councillors voted at their Thursday, November 15, meeting to submit a new application to the Department of Planning and Environment to remove a clause from the LEP that permits water extraction for commercial bottling.

The motion was proposed by Mayor Katie Milne and Cr Ron Cooper who said the clause should be removed due to concerns over the sustainability of the activity, safety and amenity concerns, wear and tear on unsuitable rural roads, and the high level of opposition in the community.

The motion called for the application to be progressed as a “matter of the highest priority” and requested support for urgent action on this planning proposal

from the NSW Minister for Planning Anthony Roberts, the Minister for Regional Water Niall Blair, and local State members.

Mayor Milne, Cr Cooper, Cr Chris Cherry and Cr Reece Byrnes all voted to remove the clause, Cr Warren Polglase and Cr Pryce Allsop voted against the motion, while Cr James Owen was away at a conference.

Council had previously applied to the Department of Planning and Environment to remove the clause from the LEP but were told there was insufficient information and Councillors voted at their July meeting not to pursue the change.

The DPE have asked Council to provide evidence that water extraction will have adverse impacts.

Tweed groundwater poorly studied, says Council report

A report by Council officers into groundwater extraction in the Tweed has found shire’s groundwater is poorly studied.

The report says according to the North Coast Fractured Rock Aquifer Water Sharing Plan (WSP) there is no data on recharge rates and a default figure of six per cent is used.

There is no data on local aquifers and instead the WSP uses an extraction limit for the entire area based on flow rates in the Tweed River.

The only data available on local impacts are pumping studies commissioned by water extraction applicants and a review of the Rowlands Creek pumping study

by Professor Peter Cook.

Council officers said because there is limited data, Council can not be satisfied that commercial water extraction won’t affect local ecosystems that are dependent on groundwater.

“Council’s position is that there is not enough information available to prove commercial water extraction is sustainable particularly at the local scale,” the report reads.

“The onus must be on the State Government to prove sustainability rather than Council to prove that it is unsustainable.”

By Jonathon Howard MINISTER FOR Regional Water Niall Blair has announced the launch of an independent review into the impacts of the bottled water industry on groundwater sources across the Northern Rivers.

T h e a n n o u n c e m e n t fo l l ow s a motion by Tweed Shire Councillors on Thursday, November 15, to apply to the Department of Planning and Environment to remove water extraction for the purposes of bottling from the Local Environment Plan (LEP).

Mr Blair was joined by Member for Lismore Thomas George and Nationals Candidate for Lismore Austin Curtin who both welcomed the announcement on Tuesday, November 20.

Although the total budget for the review is yet to be announced, a media statement said the NSW Chief Scientist & Engineer will provide advice on sustainable groundwater extraction limits in the Northern Rivers and whether the current or proposed groundwater monitoring bores are sufficient.

Mr George said he hopes the review will result in more accurate water measuring. “ I wo u l d h o p e t h at t h e re a re mechanisms in place to allow a measured approach to future water extraction,” he said.

The Weekly contacted the Department of Industry to question whether Tweed Shire bores are fitted with gauges to monitor the amounts of water being extracted.

The Department of Industry was unable to respond prior to the print deadline, however The Weekly found via their website, there are zero metered bores in the Tweed Shire and no monitoring bores.

Mr George said the independent review was not about stopping groundwater extraction.

“This review is not about stopping groundwater extraction, which we know is very important to landholders who rely on groundwater for stock and domestic purposes,” Mr George said.

“I asked Minister Blair to commission the review so that we have a better understanding of what groundwater extraction for water bottling means for the long-term viability of the water table.”

Mr Curtin said the review is an i m p o r t a n t m ove t o e n s u re t h e Government and the community are presented with the hard facts.

“I have met with various residents and community groups, including the Tweed Water Alliance, who have raised concerns over the impact this industry is having on our important water resources,” Mr Curtin said.

“This independent review will ensure that we are in a position to make a data-

Yes to Christmas decorations

Yes, we would definitely like to see a return to Christmas decorations across the Tweed Shire this year.

Please don’t let the ‘politically correct’ boffins spoil it for others - please think of all the ratepayers, not the naysayers.

Whatever your beliefs please think of the ‘spirit’ of Christmas and that a Christmas tree speaks a thousand words.

What about one in Knox Park?

Where all driver or walkers by can see it?

Marilyn Gough, Murwillumbah

Triple yes to xmas decorations

Would I like to see a return of Christmas decorations across the Tweed Shire this year? Yes, yes and yes.

Such a special time of the year, and looked forward to by so many, old and young.

Please do not allow our time honoured traditions to be swept away.

Many thanks for the opportunity to state my views.

Margaret Crittenden, Tweed Shire Dear Matthew, as you are now (unopposed) the major (opposition) political party candidate for Richmond 2019 federal election (third time around) may I suggest a refresher course.

Firstly, don’t whine about the fact that twice before you received more primary votes than Justine.

The federal voting system is preferential.

If you don’t like the rules, don’t play.

Secondly, come to grips with the fact that Justine as the sitting member has (way) more taxpayer funded resources than you.

Thirdly, stop grandstanding to your supporters who are going to vote for you anyway.

The battle is to persuade people who are sitting on the fence “the mushy middle”; tell them why they should vote for you.

Residents of this region, I ask you, why oh why have the Libs/Nats wasted $3 billion on a 12 kilometre light rail in Sydney when they are proposing to rip up our beautiful train tracks and have the ridiculous rail trail.

The whole of this area could be opened up to tourism with a proper train.

I am extremely suspicious about this project and we all should be.

If the Labor Party proposed reopening the train line they would win every seat on the North Coast.

Remember, once we lose those tracks, that’s it, gone forever.

Love the paper, but stay local

I’d love to write a letter in response to the nonsense in Peter Anderson’s and Clive Richards’ letters (TVW, November 8) but I think it would be just as inappropriate as theirs were.

The TVW is a great source of local news and information, which you can’t get from the national press, nor even in anything like that detail from ABC radio.

There are plenty of local issues and matters that should be, and are, dealt with very well by your paper.

Peter Anderson’s letter would, I am sure, be welcomed by any of Rupert Murdoch’s publications, but had nothing whatever to do with any local issues; if the far right of the Liberal Party want to promote their views they should pay for an advertisement.

Please leave such letters out and let’s stick to local issues.

Michael Bailey, Uki

Hospital preempting process

Firstly, I have the utmost respect for our doctors, nurses and staff of our Tweed Hospital who provide exceptional and vital services to our community.

Unfortunately the Tweed region’s health services needs have been long neglected by the government.

The growth of our region and the capacity issues of our Tweed Hospital have been on the table since 2011.

The endorsed Tweed Heads Hospital Redevelopment Master Plan (THHRMP) along with the detailed $211.6m budget for the three-stage project was submitted to the government in 2014.

This included expansion to the intensive care unit, emergency department, oncology services, maternity wards and mental health services.

Stage 1 was to be completed 2017.

It was to the credit of the TDN and their great ‘Heal our Hospital’ campaign that secured a small portion of the much needed funds ($48m) prior to the 2015 election to commence the redevelopment.

After years of community consultation the development and adoption of key future planning instruments, policies and strategies for our shire included Tweed Heads as a regional city and city hub for regional services and growth precinct for health services, and along with the THHRMP which was still in train March 2017.

Alarmingly, four days after the release of the EIS for early works was released, pre-emptive works have commenced on the site with no independent review or consideration of the social, economic and environmental impacts, nor any approval process.

The Tweed has been subject to a number of major projects over the years and I have never had the misfortune to be witness to the absurd speed and total lack of transparency for such a matter of critical importance to our shire and its future on so many fronts.

Lindy Smith, Tweed Heads

Can’t stop progress I’m affraid

I’d like to congratulate Ian Robinson on his marvellously nuanced, well reasoned and inciteful letter last week (Paradise slowly slipping away 15/11/18).

Probably one of the best I’ve read in The Weekly and certainly the most sensible appraisal I’ve seen on this issue to date, and “No” we’re not dating.

I think the sentiments expressed therein are likely shared by most of the silent majority who recognise that the area has been earmarked for significant urban development by the State government and indeed approvals (of a sort) are already in place for the Leda and Gales developments.

This is not being driven primarily by the profit incentive, but by the imperative that people need somewhere to live.

And, just like us, most people prefer to live near the coast.

It goes without saying that the village nature of the area will evolve over time into a more urban setting

with an energy and opportunities not currently available.

The ” Relocate” people are on the money, once the hospital is built there will be applications made for re-zoning of further farmland.

This will more than likely come from other farmers keen to cash in on the opportunity to leave the industry with a healthy bank balance.

With the current atmospherics, you’re not likely to find any farmers who’ll admit to this. I’ve known a lot of farmers.

Notwithstanding the foregoing there will be farmers, like the Paddons, who have farmed for generations and have great affinity with the land.

There’s nothing you can say to them...they’ll know when it’s time.

There’s been an incredible amount of emotion displayed over the loss/ potential loss of this farmland which on, one level I understand, but on another, leaves me perplexed.

I suppose my main reason for writing this is to highlight the fact that while the supreme court may have granted the acquisition of the Kingsclff hospital site and prelims commenced, there is still a possibility that the whole thing could be canned with a change of state government next March.

Were this to happen and we find ourselves contemplating the Kings Forest site or redevelopment of the existing hospital site, we’re in for a long, long cold winter in the subtropics.

That leaves the redevelopment option. How anyone can suggest this and keep a straight face really impresses me. What I’m saying here is it would be a good idea if the “silent majority” unsheathed their biros, dusted off their keyboards and left the politicians in no doubt that we want our hospital in Kingscliff and we just don’t want to be buggered around any more...Just Build It. Barry Holly, Murwillumbah

I vote for elections every year

We should have an election every year. That’s right every year.

The reason being that it’s the only time that our elected representatives actually bother to listen to community concerns.

The recent bipartisan statements from the Nats and Labor regarding water mining is the perfect example.

Community anger exploded with the blockading of illegally operated water trucks in Uki recently.

With the State election imminent the pollies have realised they will have to do something about the community (voters) outrage.

I wrote to Austin Curtin concerning this issue several months ago and

after three emails and several weeks later received a reply that stated “as long as it’s legal I have no problem with it at all”.

Fast forward a few weeks and revelations about a 100-million litre extraction proposed in his own area, and the blockade in Uki, and he suddenly has grave concerns about the practice and ‘if’ elected will ask for an independent inquiry that will take into consideration the community views.

Likewise Labor. The backflip by Cr Byrnes (Labor) on this issue just in time to approve an application for mining by a Labor Party elder statesman caused outrage and widespread accusations of a conflict of interest.

This has led to a collapse in the Labor vote in the area.

Recognising this they need to do something. Hence their new found support for an independent inquiry ‘if’ Craig Elliot and Janelle Saffin get elected.

These strong beliefs of supporting the communities wishes will no doubt result in a complete ban on new mining applications to the Councils in the Northern Rivers area until this issue has been evaluated sometime in the future.

Hopefully Councils will change their LEP as well and ban the practice altogether.

Something that was thwarted by Cr Byrnes earlier this year.

So can we look forward to seeing this motion being put forward jointly by Cr Byrnes (Labor) and Cr Polglase (Nationals) at the next Council Meeting?

After all it’s the wish of the people, and they are the people that vote.

Voters? Oh yes we need them every three years don’t we?

As for the voting intentions of the outraged community?

They are not as stupid as the Politicians think.

Too little too late!

What do you think?

Gwyn Hooper, Uki

Threat of apathy is greater

I had to laugh when Scott Morrison said Islamic radicalism is the greatest threat to Australia.

It’s a threat for certain but the greatest threat is apathy.

We no longer ride on the sheep’s back, and the great Aussie saying “she’ll be right” is simply not true, she ain’t right, and while we allow politicians of all flavours free reign with no redress except a fat pension it’s not going to change.

Fishermen say reforms threatening local fisheries and seafood supply

By Jo Kennett TWEED FISHERMEN say fishing reforms recently introduced by the NSW Government have left them fighting for survival after an increase in imports and farmed seafood, and a loss of fresh local product.

The fishermen say the increase in imports brings the danger of diseases such as white-spot, which has devastated prawn fisheries in South-East Qld. The reforms, which have forced fishermen to spend tens of thousands of dollars buying more shares just to remain at the level, or in many cases, below the level they currently fish at, have also led to an increased reliance on what the fishermen call a “failed aquaculture industry” in Australia “with devastating environmental impacts”.

Beach haul and river meshing fishermen Ben Markwell recently featured in a segment about mullet in Food Safari Water with Maeve O’Meara and chef Giovanni Pilu.

“They do their research and Giovanni said that the good thing was there is such a massive number of mullet that it is proven to be one of the most sustainable industries,” he said.

“Maeve compared it to the Running of the Bulls.

“There is no evidence that any of the species we are fishing are under threat.”

25 years ago Mr Markwell purchased shares which allowed him to fish 260 days a year.

“I work 120 days a year on average but last year I went from being

allowed to fish 260 days to 53, but I need at least 100 days to be viable.”

Mr Markwell said that members of a fisheries department advisory committee “bought and stockpiled dormant shares” at low prices with inside knowledge and “waited for the panic to set in when the reforms came in and we all had to buy new shares”.

“ICAC investigated it but no one was charged - but for us to have knowledge of it here shows how blatant it was,” he said.

“Nearly every working fisherman that relies on fishing for his income had to buy more shares from blokes who have never worked - they’re laughing all the way to the bank.

“A lot of people just threw their hands up and said, I’m out.”

Mr Markwell said he spoke to NSW Minister for Primary Industries, Niall Blair, prior to the reforms and was told he wouldn’t have to “dip into his pocket” and pay extra but it has cost him over $30,000 so far.

“They said they were doing it to make things more viable and sustainable but it has only made things harder and less viable there hasn’t been one aspect of the reform that has benefited us, the fish ecosystems or the consumers,” he said.

“There are only about ten people in the industry who had purchased a lot of shares that pushed for the reform but 95 per cent of the state, the proper, working fishermen rejected the reforms but they pushed it through anyway.”

Mr Markwell described aquaculture as “dangerous”.

Fisherman Clint Higgins, Ben Markwell and Troy Jones

“It destroys the environment, takes away indigenous life forms and turns it into a desert,” he said.

“People think someone with a net is raping the environment and they go and buy salmon and it’s all farmed and devastating the environment as we’ve seen in Tasmania but also with farmed prawns and white spot in Queensland.”

Mr Markwell usually supplies Scales Seafood but with reduced quotas the business is having to source product elsewhere.

“We need product from local fishermen so we can provide the local people fresh seafood but the reforms have made it a lot harder to get that product,” Scales Seafood co-owner Mick Woolway told The Weekly.

“We try not to buy imported product because our local seafood

is so much better than any imported product and better for you.”

Clint Higgins is a fourth-generation fisherman and has a licence and shares for mud crabbing, nets, river and beach fishing. He told The Weekly he paid an extra $10,500 for shares last year.

“I could have bought more shares but it would have cost me an extra $80,000 and more quota doesn’t mean you will get more crabs and they can come and change the whole system anytime,” he said.

“The new quota system means that we can never have a good year to make up for the bad years because once we reach our new reduced quotas, we have to stop fishing.”

Mr Higgins said the reforms would increase imports.

“85 per cent of the seafood consumed in NSW is imported

and we have to sit our seafood in a cabinet next to seafood from countries with no management, no regulation and no food safety,” Mr Higgins said.

“We’d be happy to compete against managed, sustainable fisheries but we compete against Asian countries that poach our fisheries and destroy their own fish populations.

“They wiped out the whole east coast blue pilchard fishery in 15 years with Indonesian imports they were feeding them to tuna in fish farms.”

Mr Higgins said the NSW Department of Fisheries was one of the most expensive to run in the country with the least number of fishers with only about 800 commercial fishers left across all sectors.

THE LEGAL LIGHT! Fishermen say reforms threatening industry

The office Christmas party has more dangers than a minefield. A few too many celebratory drinks and regular inhibitions fly out the window, and some of us - even supposedly respectable political leaders – do things which we would normally never do.

Parties with co-workers form the backdrop to many a disgrace and embarrassment, romantic indiscretion, inappropriate contact and karaoke disaster. These days, with everyone armed with camera phones and videos being instantly transferred to social media, the Christmas party can be the most dangerous time of year.

Workplace law expert Nathan Luke of Stacks Law Firm says everyone – employee and employer alike – should remember that the rules applying to behaviour in the workplace also apply to work functions.

“All the laws that apply in the workplace related to sexual harassment, bullying, abuse, discrimination, unwelcome touching or over-familiarity, suggestive comments and off-colour jokes that humiliate or embarrass work colleagues also apply at the Christmas party,” Mr Luke said.

“Courts have even supported the sacking of employees who breached workplace rules long after the office Christmas party was over, but where staff members had continued celebrating in other venues or even hotel rooms.”

Mr Luke said employers have a duty of care to their workers at the party and need to take steps before, during and after the office party to ensure workplace rules of behaviour are known by all staff, as well as taking necessary action to avoid potential problems.

By Jonathon Howard FEDERAL MEMBER for Richmond Justine Elliot has outlined three reasons why Nationals candidate Matthew Fraser “does not deserve your vote” at the next Federal Election expected to take place in May 2019.

Mrs Elliot’s views come as several residents have also questioned Mr

“Set reasonable limits on the supply of alcohol, provide non-alcoholic alternatives and serve food.

“It’s best to appoint a senior person who does not drink that night to supervise alcohol consumption and the safety of everyone there. Be alert for vulnerable staff, provide a safe venue and help people home with a taxi voucher.

Mr Luke says if unacceptable behaviour arises at the party it’s important to take prompt action. Don’t wait months to start an inquiry because delays can jeopardise procedural fairness.

“Interview those involved. Take notes. Put the allegations to those concerned. Again, take notes.

Make a decision and put your reasoning in writing.

This will be crucial in any future legal action for unfair dismissal.”

Fraser’s successful nomination by the National Party.

Mr Fraser was the only Nationals candidate for the seat.

First and foremost, Mrs Elliot referred to Mr Fraser’s recent comments via social media in which he referred to residents protesting against the site selection of the new hospital as “the great unwashed”.

“Matthew Fraser is unfit for public office after calling members of our community “the great unwashed” in a video that he posted on Facebook on October 5, this year,” Mrs Elliot said.

“This disrespectful and arrogant attack on our community is unforgivable.”

The video was posted online in response to a peaceful protest outside State Member for Tweed Geoff Provest’s office.

The protest attracted about 100 residents who were demanding the proposed Tweed Valley Hospital be shifted from Cudgen State Significant Farmland to an alternative site.

“Matthew Fraser wants to cut Age Pensions,” Mrs Elliot said as her second reason not to vote for Mr Fraser.

“The harsh age pension cuts in the Abbott 2014 Budget, were praised as “especially necessary” by Matthew Fraser

because he thinks pensions paid to the aged are, in his words, “unsustainable”.”

Mrs Elliot said Matthew Fraser also wants to cut penalty rates.

“Matthew Fraser wants to slash the penalty rates of hard-working locals,” she said.

“If Matthew Fraser gets his way then thousands of locals working in jobs that rely on penalty rates will have their takehome pay slashed.”

Local resident Judy Murray of Round Mountain also expressed her concern with the National Party’s selection process.

“The selection of Matthew Fraser as the candidate for the National Party is shameful how anyone can take this party seriously is beyond me,” Mrs Murray said.

“A man who sneaks around taking videos of a cross section of the community who are only showing concern for the loss of farmland and then shows such disrespect by calling them the “great unwashed” has no place in our parliament.

“If this is the best that the National Party has to offer, then they are in dire straits.”

- to make it not a family-owned but a corporate model,’ he said.

“They want a couple of corporate operations to own everything in the state because it makes it easier for them.

“Chefs and home cooks everywhere value good quality and sustainable seafood and that will be gone because we’re the ones supplying it and we’re dying a slow death. For us to survive and continue supplying fresh local seafood we need the support of the public.”

A report by the CSIRO has just been released on the bottom trawling footprint of Australian fisheries on Australia’s seabed habitats. Although some regions are more impacted than others, the report found that less than 3.5 per cent of the Australian seabed was affected by trawling in recent years, among the lowest trawling footprints recorded worldwide.

“Ensure workplace rules on harassment and behaviour are up to date and understood by all staff before the office party,” Mr Luke said.

“Beware of taking what you think is friendly flirting too far. Don’t ask questions of co-workers that are too personal. No inappropriate touching. Sexual harassment rules apply at the party just as much as in the office.”

“If there was something like restocking or research about how much product there is that actually benefited the industry that might be different but there isn’t,” he said.

“The manner in which the DPI has managed the reform has left the majority of industry staggered by their ineptitude, and by how completely unfair and nontransparent this process has been.

“No one has said that if we keep fishing the way we are there will be nothing left in ten years because if that was the case we would be happy to adapt changes to keep the fishing ecosystems healthy. If this was about sustainability, we’d be 100 per cent on board with them.”

Mr Jones said Fisheries NSW seemed intent on getting rid of family-run fishing businesses.

“It’s not based on depleting stocks, it’s about depleting fishermen - we’ve already gone from 4,000 to 800 in NSW

Continued from page 5 Troy Jones has been ocean trap and line fishing part-time for 25 years and his high-quality hand-caught product is in demand with restaurateurs such as Peter Burr from award-winning Potager.

“These reforms are taking the public’s access to seafood away and increasing the price with no real benefit towards sustainability and the future of fishing ecosystems,” Mr Jones said.

“We aren’t stupid, we know we have to look after our resources but the recent reforms have been a complete failure.

“It’s cost us a lot of money to retain what we already had and all it’s done is reduced the public’s ability to access quality seafood, endangered Australian fisheries through increased imports and disease and increased our reliance on a failing aquaculture industry.”

Mr Jones said that the reforms had no benefits.

Council finances get the OK

Financial statements for 2017/18 show Council remains in a satisfactory financial position. The statements were presented to the public at the Council meeting last Thursday.

The focus of Council’s Long-term Financial Plan is on funding transport, drainage, water and sewer infrastructure.

Cabarita car park temporary closure

Council will close Norries Headland car park at Cabarita at 4am on Wednesday 28 November so the area can be sealed.

Rangers will be on site to ensure no vehicles are parked overnight at the car park leading up to the closure.

Traffic control will be on site from 4am on the day of the closure, weather permitting, to stop vehicles entering the car park.

The resealing work will be completed in one day, weather permitting. An electronic message board will be posted ahead of the closure.

Win a three-night stay at one of these beachside cabins by completing the Open Space survey.

Have your say and win a 3-night stay Residents who tell Council what they think about its plans for parks and open spaces stand a chance of winning a three-night stay at Kingscliff North Holiday Park.

The Draft Open Space Strategy sets out a decade-long plan to improve our parks, sports fields, natural areas, playgrounds and other open spaces. Manager Recreation Services Stewart Brawley said the feedback will be used to roll out 10 years’ worth of projects across the Tweed.

“Council has proposed more than 200 projects across the Tweed, including off-leash dog areas, bushland regeneration, shared pathways, skate parks, accessibility upgrades and community gardens.

“The survey is vital to help us better understand what the community wants and how to prioritise the projects,” Mr Brawley said.

People can complete the survey online or attend one of Council’s Community Conversation events to provide their feedback in person.

Ten events already have been held across the Tweed, with five to go.

To have your say online, visit the Open Space Strategy page at www.yoursaytweed.com.au/openspace. The online survey closes on 16 December 2018.

Everyone who participates in the survey has the opportunity to enter a draw for a chance to win a three-night stay for a family of five in a Dreamtime Cabin at Kingscliff North Holiday Park, valued at $560.

The upcoming Community Conversations include Crabbes Creek, Pottsville, Casuarina, Kingscliff and Bilambil. To view dates, times and venues, visit www.yoursaytweed.com.au/openspace

Cultural heritage plan praised Council’s Aboriginal Cultural Heritage Management Plan has won a planning excellence award.

Jointly developed with the Council’s Aboriginal Advisory Committee, the Plan provides a better understanding of occurrences of cultural heritage in the Tweed. Other key aspects include consultation with the Aboriginal community and providing tools to landowners so they can better understand their legal obligations.

Motion to prohibit water extraction supported

The stage 1 upgrade of Lions Park in Kingscliff includes new seating, landscaping, pathways, turf and trees.

Lions Park reopened after stage 1 upgrade Stage 1 of the Lions Park upgrade in Kingscliff is now open to the public. The works so far include new seating, landscaping, pathways, turf and trees. The second stage consists of new shelters, which will be completed next month.

Aboriginal cultural items were identified during the works and Council is in the process of completing an Aboriginal Cultural

Heritage Assessment (ACHA). The plan is then to complete the final parts of the upgrade next year once the ACHA, alongside any requirements, has been completed.

It is expected that there will be very little disruption to the public over the Christmas break with most of the park open for use and no loss of car park space or beach access.

Living and Loving the Tweed

At the Council meeting last Thursday a motion was carried to remove clause 7.15 of the Tweed Local Environment Plan, which would prohibit water extraction for commercial water-bottling facilities.

The motion stated that this was because ‘of the precautionary principle in regard to the long-term sustainability of this activity, safety and amenity concerns, wear and tear on rural roads, and the high level of opposition in the community’. The motion was carried four votes to two, with one councillor absent.

For the change to be confirmed, Council will need to provide justification to NSW Department for Planning and Environment that water extraction in the Tweed is unsustainable.

Motions also were carried confirming Council’s opposition to the site selected for the relocation of Tweed Heads Hospital as well as calling for an urgent parliamentary inquiry into the proposed Tweed Valley Hospital; and to organise a workshop for all landowners adjacent to the proposed Northern Rivers Rail Trail to advise on progress and hear any concerns.

Under traffic control – expect short delays

Rail Trail Project Director Iain Lonsdale provides context around the proposed rail trail for representatives from 19 construction and consultancy companies interested in tendering for the project.

Companies show interest in rail trail build Nineteen construction and consultancy companies and one vegetation management company last week attended a Council workshop to learn more about the proposed first stage of the Northern Rivers Rail Trail from Murwillumbah to Crabbes Creek.

At the workshop, Council released a short video, Experience Our Heritage, showcasing the route and scenery along the way. Watch it at www.yoursaytweed.com.au/RailTrail/videos The workshop provided context around the proposed rail trail, plus highlighted some of the design and construction challenges presented by the current poor condition of the rail corridor.

Council has called for Expressions of Interest to design and construct the rail trail, with proposals for both on-rail and off-rail formations invited.

The construction companies now have until 12 December to respond to the Expression of Interest, which is designed to assess design and construction capability and experience, including workplace health and safety and environmental management credentials.

Around February 2019, three to four companies will be shortlisted to work closely with Council to tender for the Design and Construct contract for the rail trail. That contract will be awarded around May next year, with construction to start about June 2019

for completion by September 2020.

“We were very pleased with the diversity and depth of construction expertise that today’s workshop attracted, with obvious rail bridge and civil engineering expertise in the room,” Rail Trail Project Director Iain Lonsdale said.

“The questions from the floor demonstrated a keen desire of prospective tenderers to understand the detailed design and construction challenges of the project, explore on-rail and off-rail formation opportunities and to manage community expectations and adjacent landowner needs throughout.”

Prospective tenderers got a bird’s eye view of the condition of the corridor via video detailing the major design and construction challenges, such as: difficult topography; significant grades; flood-prone land; landslips and scours; numerous creek crossings; historic bridges with spans missing; and, overgrown vegetation.

The Northern Rivers Rail Trail, stage 1 from Murwillumbah to Crabbes Creek, is fully funded by the federal and state governments and supported by Tweed Shire Council.

The $13 million trail is being built to provide business and growth opportunities in the Tweed villages and economic and social benefits for the community.

New police planned for Tweed Shire

THE TWEED Shire is likely to benefit from additional police on the beat after the NSW Government announced a total of 1,500 new officers will be added to the NSW Police Force.

Member for Tweed Geoff Provest has welcomed the announcement which he said is the biggest increase in NSW for the past 30 years.

“The 1,500 extra police will benefit every single community across NSW including Tweed, thanks to a record investment of $583 million by the Liberals & Nationals Government,” Mr Provest said.

“The NSW Government has already delivered more than 1,000 new police since we were elected, and these 1,500 new recruits will put more police where they are needed

– out on the frontline, tackling crime across the state.”

Mr Provest said NSW has some of the lowest crime rates in 20 years, and with this boost to police numbers our men and women in blue will be able to meet future crime challenges.

Mr Provest was contacted to confirm specific numbers that may be appointed to the Tweed, but he was unavailable prior to the print deadline.

However, The Weekly understands that the Tweed/Byron District Command is likely to receive a Child Protection Officer and Elder Abuse Prevention Officer.

Minister for Police Troy Grant said protecting some of the most vulnerable members of our community, our children and the elderly, is undoubtedly one of the most important roles that NSW Police perform.

“To ensure police have greater capability to keep a watchful eye on known offenders against children, and ensure our elderly are better protected from abuse, all 58 Police commands across NSW will receive a Child Protection Officer and Elder Abuse Prevention Officer,” said Mr Grant.

NSW Commissioner of Police Mick Fuller said this commitment to the New South Wales Police Force is historic.

“I am very excited at the opportunities we’ll now have to enhance our capability,” Commissioner Fuller said.

“We have re-engineered the organisation to ensure our structure has us well placed to prevent, disrupt and respond to crime throughout the community.

“Now we can also grow the Force to boost our efforts even further.”

Premier Gladys Berejiklian said the safety and security of NSW communities is the Government’s highest priority.

“NSW Police Commissioner Mick Fuller has provided the Government with a resourcing blueprint for the NSW Police Force that focuses on proactive and high visibility policing,” Ms Berejiklian said. “ T h e N S W L i b e r a l s & N at i o n a l s Government’s careful economic management is enabling us to make record investments in our frontline services. These 1,500 new police are another example of our hard work paying off for the community.”

President of the Police Association of NSW Tony King said this investment in police numbers will undoubtedly help ease the burden and strain on current officers.

Driver disqualified until 2054 charged over pursuit A 27-YEAR-OLD Tweed Heads man, who was disqualified from driving until 2054, has been charged with multiple offences, including police pursuits, after being arrested at South Murwillumbah on Sunday, November 18.

Tweed Police said the District Target Action Group, along with the Dog Squad, attended a home on Railway Street at about 3.30am.

“Officers attended the house searching for a man who was wanted over an alleged pursuit in Tweed Heads in September,” Police said.

“A 27-year-old man was found inside the home hiding in a closet.”

Police said the man was arrested and taken to Tweed Heads Police Station where he was charged with two outstanding arrests warrants and two counts of police pursuit.

The man, already disqualified until 2054, was also charged with two counts of driving whilst disqualified and two counts of common assault.

The man was refused bail and had been scheduled to appear at Tweed Heads Bail Court on Sunday, November 18.

Search of Urilup Road home finds drugs and weapons TWEED POLICE have raided a property on Urliup Road where officers uncovered a range of prohibited drugs on Thursday, November 15.

Police said it was about 8.30am when officers used a search warrant at an undisclosed Urilup Road address.

“During the search Police located drugs believed to be methylamphetamine, MDMA, cannabis leaf and a cannabis plant,” Police said.

“Police also found a can of pepper spray and a taser.”

A 33-year-old female from Urilup was issued with a Court Attendance Notice for drug and prohibited weapons offences.

She was expected to appear at the Tweed Heads Local Court on a date yet to be fixed.

Exclusive hospital report

The Tweed Hospital will close

The EIS clearly states that all services currently located at The Tweed Hospital will be relocated to the Cudgen site and the current hospital site will be available for redevelopment.

A Social and Economic Impact Assessment (SEIA) prepared by SGS Economics and Planning found the relocation of The Tweed Hospital will have economic impacts on the Tweed Heads city centre in the short-term but found overall the majority of impacts are likely to be positive.

The report lists improved health services, improved safety from flooding, increased employment during construction and

Local News 13

improved self-sufficiency among the positive impacts.

Construction impacts, loss of agricultural land and reduced economic function of the Tweed Town Centre were listed as negative impacts that were rated as moderate.

“These impacts are more likely to be felt by the elderly, infirm and those who do not have access to private vehicle or can easily utilise public transport,” the SEIA reads.

“While data regarding why people have chosen to reside in Tweed Heads is not available, there may be members of the community who have located in the town centre due to the access it provides to the hospital and outpatient services.

“These are the people most likely to be adversely affected by the hospital’s relocation to Kingscliff.”

The report also reveals The Tweed Clinical Education and Research Institute, Ambulance Station, Breast Screen Services, Oral Health and Community Health Centre will not be relocated to the new hospital and it is recommended these services are delivered in, or collocated with, a community health facility located in or close to the Tweed Heads Town Centre.

The report also recommends improving public transport access between Tweed Heads and the new facility at Kingscliff.

The relocation of the hospital will have a short-term economic impact on Tweed Heads businesses, such as those providing short term accommodation, food and hospitality services as well as retailers close to the current hospital site, according to the economic assessment.

“So it is logical that the relocation of the hospital away from this area will have a negative impact on trading levels and perceptions of centre vitality – at least in the short term,” the SEIA reads.

The report also notes that the Department of Planning and Environment and Tweed

THE WEEKLY has sorted through hundreds of pages of the Tweed Valley Hospital Environmental Impact Statement (EIS) for this week’s edition, to provide readers with a valuable insight into the specifics of the major project.

The Tweed Valley Hospital is the largest investment in the Tweed Shire’s history and despite continued debate around the location of the hospital, the community is in agreement that a new hospital is needed.

The Weekly has broken down the report into several headings which includes a brief outline of the report.

The EIS outlines Health Infrastructure’s reasons for choosing the greenfield site at 771 Cudgen Road which include projected population growth on the Tweed Coast; demographic trends that show an ageing population, lower life expectancies and poorer health outcomes; a goal to be selfsufficient and reduce cross-border cross overs; to implement new models of care and to eliminate the constraints of The Tweed Hospital site which is located at the northern end of the shire and inaccessible to residents south of the river during a major flood.

Tweed Valley Weekly Locals Supporting Locals

Exclusive hospital report: everything you need to

Council are in the process of developing a Regional City Action Plan for Tweed, which will provide the opportunity to develop a future vision for The Tweed Hospital site.

“That said, the relocation of the hospital frees up a significant parcel of land for alternative uses to populate in the mediumto-long term,” the SEIA reads.

“In property development terms, the existing site is well positioned near the Tweed River and possesses relatively strong levels of amenity.

“It could be occupied by other strategically important uses that serve the local and regional population.”

Redevelopment too costly

Health Infrastructure had investigated the option of redeveloping The Tweed Hospital (TTH), including the purchase of nearby land, and said although it was a feasible option, the funds required would be “significant” and would “detract from expenditure on necessary clinical services”.

“All studies have identified that any redevelopment at TTH would result in significant capital cost due to the complex logistics required to maintain a safe and operating hospital facility through the works, as well as purchase of adjacent land,” the SEIA reads.

Future of Murwillumbah Hospital

According to the SEIA “there is no net increase in beds or services at the Murwillumbah Hospital currently planned as part of this project” and it will “retain its current role”.

Stage one works

Health Infrastructure has applied to extend construction hours to meet the 2022 construction deadline for the Tweed Valley Hospital.

The site will be operational from 7am to 6pm on weekdays and Health Infrastructure have

applied to extend the Saturday completion time from 8am to 1pm to the later 4pm.

Health Infrastructure have modified stage one early works to include the construction of three sediment basins to protect the lowlying rainforest area to the north of the site.

The stage one works which also include vegetation clearing, piling, retaining walls and connection of services, and are likely to take 10 months to complete.

The sloping site requires 139,812 cubic metres to be cut and 118,653 cubic metres of this will be used to fill the site. An Environmental Protection Licence (EPL) will likely be required because of the high volume being processed.

More than 1000 staff needed

The EIS estimates the new hospital will initially have 430 beds and 1053 full-time equivalent staff.

The staffing will increase by an estimated 20 per cent to 2026/27, and then increase by an estimated 1.1 per cent per year to 2031/32.

The EIS states that further details of staffing will be developed.

Paid parking planned

According to the EIS, the development will “incorporate in the order of 700 car parking spaces across four car parking areas” with two staff car parks and two public car parks that are expected to be “on surface” parking.

The EIS does note that further studies and community consultation will be undertaken in relation to parking as part of the Stage 2 application and a Car Park Project Working Group will be formed which will include members of Community Reference Panel.

“Hence parking numbers are not included for endorsement as part of this EIS,” the EIS reads.

“A car parking management plan will detail any parking fees which will follow a typical tariff system as used across NSW.

“It is expected that management of car parking will be similar to the system used at the Lismore Base Hospital Uralba Street carpark (as outlined in the Traffic Impact Assessment), which includes: boom gate access, structured fee for various time periods, multiple payment methods, operation 24 hours a day, seven days a week and concession parking for eligible visitors.”

Lismore Base Hospital’s multi-storey carpark is operated by independent operator Care Park, who have free parking for the first 15 minutes, $3 for the first hour, $6 for two to three hours and a maximum daily charge of $8.

Road upgrades required

The Traffic Impact Assessment found an additional 5,078 vehicles will be on the roads each day once the hospital is constructed.

The assessment found all intersections will cope with the increased demand, apart from the Tweed Coast Road and Cudgen Road intersection, which will operate outside of an “acceptable performance limit” by completion of the hospital in 2023.

The EIS proposes upgrading the intersection including a 100m southbound left turning lane on Tweed Coast Road and lengthening departure lanes.

Health Infrastructure said they will work with Tweed Shire Council and RMS on the planning and delivery of the Cudgen Road/ Tweed Coast Road intersection capacity upgrades and how these works will interface with Tweed Shire Council’s planned four-lane upgrade of Tweed Coast Road from the Pacific Highway to Cudgen Road.

Residents to lose views

A Draft Visual Impact Assessment found that several residents to the east of the hospital site will lose their view of Mount Warning.

The most affected area is the west-facing and elevated residential areas, “with some

residences likely to lose distant views of Mount Warning”.

However, the report concludes that despite some reduction in visual quality for these viewpoints, all view frames would still maintain a “reasonable visual amenity standard”.

Minimising cross-border flows

The social impact assessment raised concerns with the ability of the Gold Coast health service to continue to treat the thousands of Northern NSW residents seeking specialist care in Queensland.

The report notes that in 2010/11, approximately 5,400 residents of the Northern NSW catchment accessed inpatient care in Queensland including Interventional Cardiology via a contract with John Flynn Private Hospital and Radiation Oncology via Gold Coast University Hospital.

“Although close by for patients, the John Flynn Hospital will only be able to support patients requiring Interventional Cardiology from the Northern NSW catchment until 2018-19 when it is anticipated that Gold Coast University Hospital will be at full capacity serving the local South East Queensland and Gold Coast public demand,” the report reads.

“It has been assessed that by 2020, the Gold Coast Health University will be unable to deliver high volume Radiation Oncology services to the residents of Northern NSW, rather will only have the capacity to deliver quaternary level services.

“There is therefore a known risk that health services in Queensland will fail to provide services for the Northern NSW catchment.

“The Northern NSW Government cannot actively manage this risk as they cannot influence investment decisions of the Queensland Government.”

The Weekly sought to clarify whether Queensland Health would continue to provide specialist care to Northern NSW residents. ©2018/321

Loss of farmland

While the farming future of the Cudgen plateau remains heavily debated, an Agricultural Impact Assessment found minimal impacts.

The assessment said the removal of State Significant Farmland (SSF) would be “unlikely to have a significant impact on agricultural productivity especially given it contains partly sloping land which is not ideal for agricultural production and a rocky sub soil which would result in yields of sweet potatoes being lower than average”.

The assessment also downplayed fears the rezoning of the land would open the Cudgen plateau for development.

“As the Project is for a public purpose/ infrastructure it is not considered that the Project would set a precedent which could allow further urban development to occur on SSF,” the report reads.

“Therefore, it is unlikely that the Project would result in any increase in the value of agricultural land or reduce investment in agriculture in the region.”

To reduce conflict with nearby farms a Land Use Conflict Risk Assessment recommended a series of measures, including vegetated buffers to provide an effective safeguard to spray drift.

To offset the loss of farmland the agricultural assessment states that the Department of Premier and Cabinet are currently pursuing a collaborative opportunity to support the agricultural industry in the region.

The report states this could include improved utilisation of agricultural land, including that which has not been farmed for some time.

Cudgen farmer James Paddon has responded to the farming report and highlighted the lucrative nature of the region’s agricultural sector.

The Relocate Team are urging members of the public to have their say on the Tweed Valley Hospital development before the closing date on Thursday, November 29.

“Many people in the area have an opinion about the proposed location of the Tweed Valley Hospital at Cudgen,” the Relocate Team spokeswoman Hayley Paddon said.

“Fortunately, we live in a democratic society and now community members can finally have their say about whether they feel the development of the hospital should occur on the State Significant Farmlands.

“The Department of Planning & Environment is asking for your opinions about two important changes: “1. The State Significant Development Application (SSD) – this is the plan to build a hospital at Kingscliff including the impacts of the hospital on Kingscliff and the Tweed according to Health Infrastructure. You can comment on such issues as traffic and visual impact, social and economic impact, agricultural impact and all environmental impacts in their Environmental Impact Statement (EIS).

“2. The Proposed State Environmental Planning Policy (SEPP) the Health Infrastructure proposal would remove the agricultural zoning of the land and remove building height restrictions.”

“Our main points are the demographic of Cudgen farmers being so young and that is because the industry is so lucrative due to the year round ability to produce high value crops,” he said.

“NSW DPI has been working on rural land use conflict of late and in the latest report most conflict arises from new residents or enterprises entering rural areas and most of these conflicts once investigated have found the farmers were not in breach of the law.

“So we have a booming farming industry that requires every spare acre for expansion not to loose valuable ground and be hindered by most likely regular complaints when the farmer is doing no wrong.

“The NSW DPI employed Dr Andy Goodall, University of Technology Sydney to conduct surveys of local councils throughout NSW on rural land use conflict to compile reports for their Right to Farm programme 2015 and on going to date. Tweed Shire Council was included in these surveys.

“One of their conclusions was that the most effective way to prevent rural land conflict was in the planning stage hence development applications.”

Chief Executive of the Northern NSW Local Health District (NNSWLHD) Wayne Jones said they have an excellent working relationship with Gold Coast University Hospital (GCUH).

“Radiation therapy is currently provided to residents in Northern NSW through GCUH, John Flynn Private Hospital and Lismore Base Hospital,” he said.

“These arrangements will continue until the new Tweed Valley Hospital commences providing radiation therapy services.

“Consistent with the Medicare principles set out on the National Health Reform Agreement, treatment cannot be refused to Medicare eligible patients due to their state of residence.”

The social impact assessment also noted in 2010/11 9,880 residents of Queensland accessed inpatient care in the Northern NSW catchment.

Mr Jones said the NNSWLHD will “continue to treat Queensland residents where it is clinically appropriate, and NSW residents will continue to be treated by Gold Coast University Hospital (GCUH) where clinically appropriate”.

By Jo Kennett SURF LIFESAVING and Tweed Shire Council representatives were at Dreamtime Beach at Fingal Head with Tweed MP Geoff Provest on Friday, November 16 for the launch of the first permanent Emergency Response Beacon (ERB) after a string of drownings in the area.

Funded by the NSW Government, the ERB provides direct communication with the Surf Life Saving State Operations Centre in Sydney, solar panels for power, and a camera that can be activated in emergencies, all aimed at shortening response times to emergencies.

Surf Life Saving NSW Chief Operations Officer Mr Phil Ayres said the camera could be switched on and pan up and down the beach to identify where a person is in distress.

‘You press the button in an emergency and between 7am and 7pm in summer it goes directly to our State Operations Centre at Belrose and then they can activate lifeguards to bring in a jetski or other resources and they can communicate with the jet ski operator and tell them where the person is,” Mr Ayres told The Weekly.

“After those hours it diverts to 000 and then that goes back to Belrose and we can activate the cameras; we can do it offsite as well.

“Noosa and Caloundra have these with portable trailers, but this is better because it’s permanent and doesn’t need batteries charged each day.”

Mr Ayres said the remoteness made surveillance of many beaches a problem.

“Look at this beach, it’s beautiful but it’s not patrolled and that’s something we have to deal with because of the extent of our coastline,” he said.

“This equipment doesn’t make the beach safer it just assists in rescues.

“We have the angel rings here but this is all only for emergency situations - people can walk three minutes north and swim at the patrolled beach or go to Kingscliff instead where there are lifeguards.”

Mr Provest, who advocated for funding to reduce fatalities at the beach, said they had also installed an emergency defibrillator on the side of the surf club.

“SLS NSW ran free information sessions so the locals know what to do in an emergency and a number of locals have signed up to do an advanced resuscitation which hopefully will encourage them to join the Fingal Rovers, even if they are from another area, as numbers are low,” Mr Provest said.

“These are community assets so we are looking for the community to take ownership of these assets and look after them.

“We had cameras on the Tweed Bar and Cudgen Creek and within a week they were vandalised but this camera is not on until we switch it on - it is purely for emergencies.”

Northern NSW Lifeguard Coordinator Scott McCartney said it was a great initiative.

“Obviously over the last five years we had a lot of major incidents at Dreamtime Beach it’s not a patrolled beach so having eyes on the beach in an emergency will give us a chance to coordinate a response and get here in time,” he said.

“We also want people to know that in an emergency they shouldn’t put their lives at risk."

Mr McCartney said the popularity of the beach after it featured on social media as the third best beach in Australia had brought more visitors who were unaware of the dangerous rips and undercurrents.

“Any beach called Dreamtime will attract a lot of people,” he said.

“The reason this beach is so dangerous is any southerly swell usually misses Kingscliff, which has a lot of reefs, and comes straight into here so it’s always a lot bigger here and we have a really strong sweep south to north and once it comes into the rocks it goes straight out to sea.

“The waves push people into the headland and there are a lot of underwater caves and as soon as they go under they get stuck - getting smashed into rocks is bad enough and leg ropes can get caught on rocks too.”

Mr McCartney said that people swept out in a rip panic and lose energy.

“That is the real threat but getting smashed into rocks makes it much more difficult,” he said.

“It’s an extremely dangerous area and very difficult for us to get in to rescue someone.

“Even on small days like today you can see the rip just past those people and for people that aren’t trained if they jump in there they are pushed straight out.”

Mr McCartney said it was a lovely beach but people needed to swim at the patrolled beach.

“I’d encourage people to come here but it’s just a short walk over the headland where there are patrols weekends and holidays but if they aren’t keen on that they are better off making the effort to go to Kingscliff which is patrolled seven months of the year.

Look out for turtles as nesting season begins OSTEOPATHY

By Jo Kennett TWEED RESIDENTS are being asked to contact the Tweed office of the National Parks and Wildlife Service (NPWS) if they see turtle tracks, hatchlings and dead or injured turtles as marine turtle nesting season begins.

NSW is home to five of the world’s seven species of marine turtles, all of which are threatened species and includes loggerhead and green turtles which nest on Tweed beaches.

Last year ten turtle nests were found between Tweed Heads and Coffs Harbour.

NPWS Ranger Keely Markovina said in a media release that it is important to protect marine turtles as nesting season begins “when they are very vulnerable and should not be disturbed”.

“Female turtles come out of the water between dusk and dawn to lay their eggs," she said.

"The next morning, you can see the tracks they left as they crawled up the beach to search for a good spot to create a nest.

“The turtle digs a large body pit with her front flippers and then switches to using her back flippers, which act like hands, to scoop out sand to create a deep egg chamber.

“She lays an average of around 100 eggs into the chamber, which resemble ping pong balls, before covering them with sand and returning to the ocean.”

Ms Markovina said that after eight to 15 weeks of incubation, the hatchlings climb out of the nest over a few days before making a dash for the ocean to avoid predators.

“Only about one in 1,000 survive to adulthood under natural conditions, and even less in places that have extra pressures caused by humans,” she said.

“Marine turtles face many threats, including beach erosion, artificial lighting and climate change and these issues could also affect nesting patterns.

“We believe NSW beaches will become increasingly important for turtle nesting if

Miss Markovina said the temperature of the sand inside the turtle’s nest has an impact on the incubation time and the gender of hatchlings with hotter temperatures producing more females.

Endangered eggs lost Community rocked by shocking baby death at Hastings Point NSW POLICE detectives were expected to travel to Queensland on Wednesday, November 21, to seek the extradition of a 47-year-old man as part of the investigation into the death of a nine-month-old girl.

By Jo Kennett TWO EGGS being incubated by a pair of endangered pied oystercatchers at Hastings Point have disappeared from the nest and are believed to be dead, after complaints about the number of dogs in the dog exclusion zone threatening them and a beach stone-curlew nest nearby.

The Weekly was sent sixteen photos of different dogs inside the dog exclusion zone taken before Tweed Shire Council Rangers stepped up patrols around the estuary in a bid to save the egg of the pair of critically-endangered beach stonecurlews nesting in the creekside park.

Council had enclosed both nests with a fence, however it was still possible for dogs roaming free in the dog exclusion zone to access the pied oystercatcher nest on the beach.

Birdlife Northern Rivers spokesperson Linda Brannian said one of the eggs was rolled out of the nest and was consequently abandoned by the parents and then the second one disappeared.

“It looks like it’s sad news for the oystercatcher pair that we have been watching at Hastings,” Ms Brannian said.

“The number of dogs inside the dog exclusion zone is a real issue - they can flush the birds off the nest and then they aren’t there to protect the eggs and a predator can take the egg, or else the dogs can eat or crush the egg.

“It’s great that the rangers are stepping up patrols and everyone loves the signs on the foreshore but we do need signs on the headland side of the estuary as well.”

Ms Brannian received an email on November 16 from Graham Hodgkinson who discovered the pied oystercatcher nest, saying that there were no eggs left.

“I’d ask the public to be more mindful of the category of the beach you are taking your dogs to,” she said.

“Never let your dog go into the dunes - keep it close to the waterline and don’t allow it to run through the dunes and chase birds and wildlife.

“Pied oystercatchers are endangered - they need the beach to breed and to rear their young and that’s why it’s so important to respect the dog exclusion zones and keep these birds reproducing.”

Mr Hodgkinson said he found a set of dog tracks inside the roped off area around the pied oystercatcher nest after the nest had been abandoned but wasn’t sure if dogs had destroyed the eggs.

“I’ve been concerned about the disregard of some people to the Council signs outlining the dog exclusion zone on the estuary,” he said.

“Especially lately at the very mouth of the river when owners let dogs roam freely and there is so much happening with nesting birds including pied oystercatchers, masked lapwings and the crested terns that congregate on the sands at the mouth of the river.

“I can understand that families love to have their dogs with them at the beach, and the dogs obviously love to be there, but if they can be educated to understand the importance of allowing the shorebirds to breed or prepare for long flights, particularly in that dog exclusion zone, a lot will have been achieved”.

Another resident asked people to avoid the inside of the estuary near the creek mouth early in the morning when the endangered curlews and pied oystercatchers are feeding.

“If people could just give them some space rather than just running through there that would really help these species to survive,” he said.

THE CHRISTMAS Spirit will come alive this Saturday, November 24, for the highly anticipated annual Sacred Heart Church Christmas Carnival and Nativity Tableau.

An invitation is extended by Parish Priest Father Anthony Lemon to the local community to come along and enjoy this iconic family evening which for many heralds the start of the Christmas season.

The event, staged each year by the Catholic Church Murwillumbah and its Parish Schools, has become an iconic district favourite in the 57 years since it started in 1961.

The carnival will be held in the Mt St Patrick School grounds inside the Gilbey Multipurpose Centre from 7.30pm.

The site offers free parking on the playing fields accessed from Mooball Street.

Rain, hail or shine the fete stalls will open at 4pm, with all stalls under cover in the ground-level basement of the Gilbey Multipurpose Centre, which can be accessed from Queensland Road as well as Mooball Street.

CHRISTMAS GIFT and donation appeals are springing up across the Tweed Shire this week with the South Tweed Sports Club once again appealing to the community to help make it a special time for those families doing it tough this Christmas.

South Tweed Sports Club is supporting The Smith Family’s Toy & Book Appeal this year which is your opportunity to help bring a smile to a disadvantaged child’s face this festive season.

“Sadly, thousands of Australian children will go without a gift this holiday season, simply because their families can’t afford it,” South Tweed Sports Club spokesperson Heidi Sutton said.

“The Smith Family has a long and proud association with Christmas.

“In 1922, five businessmen were surprised to discover a significant level of poverty on their doorstep.

“They decided to take gifts to a local orphanage on Christmas Eve and were heartened by the joy it brought to the children there.

“When the matron asked who they could thank, the first man replied “Smith.” She then asked “What about the others?” and they replied “Smith. We’re all Smiths. We’re The Smith Family”. And the rest, as they say, is history.”

Throughout the year, with the support of generous supporters from Tweed residents, The Smith Family is able to improve educational opportunities for disadvantaged children, but every Christmas we revisit our heritage and provide toys and books to children who might otherwise miss out on a gift on Christmas morning.

Donations of toys and books are made by our wonderful supporters all around the country.

“In addition, the Smith Family purchase toys and books using funds donated to the Toy & Book Appeal,” the spokesperson said.

“Volunteers then sort, pack and deliver the gifts to disadvantaged families all over Australia, ready for Christmas morning.

“It’s only Christmas when we share it.”

The best of Fiji is a land of infectious smiles from the locals and pristine natural surroundings. For a mere speck on the map, Fiji packs a punch when it comes to things to do and see.

Generally you will fly into the main airport of Nadi (pronounced Nandi), with the town a central hub for the main island of Viti Levu. From here your options are endless of how to discover Fiji and her islands.

While there are many resorts on the main island, with the main concentration around the Coral Coast, the true beauty of Fiji comes from her outer islands.

Regular boat transfers leave from Port Denarau, about 40 minutes’ drive from Nadi Airport and travel to the islands.

The first group of islands you will reach are the Manamuca Group. Heading north from here you come across the pristine white shored islands of the Yasawa Group.

Wherever you choose to stay in Fiji, you will find an abundance of things to see and do and experiences to be had. Swap your “hello” for “bula”, your “thank you” for “vinaka” and drop the pace back a few gears and you are ready to holiday in Fiji.

21

Fiji

Here are the top five must do things in Fiji.

1. Snorkelling and Diving

the street along the foreshore and soak up the atmosphere of a Fiji that is captured in time.

Get under the water in Fiji and you will discover a whole new world. Snorkelling and diving in Fiji is incredible, with warm clear water, great visibility and a myriad of colourful fish and coral. Many places you can snorkel straight from the beach, however if you want to venture deeper, there are many great diving opportunities and companies that can help you get there.

2. Fijian Cooking School You’re going to enjoy the local cuisine so why not learn to make it yourself and bring back a lasting souvenir. Based at Denarau, Flavours of Fiji Cooking School offers a half day class to learn just what goes into your Fijian meals, and the best part, you get to eat what you cook. It is a fantastic opportunity to really immerse yourself into the Fijian way of life. Kids are more than welcome to attend.

3. Historical delights There is so much history packed into this tiny Pacific nation.

Make your way across to Ovalau Island to the town of Levuka.

This was formerly the Capital of Fiji and holds so much old world charm. Here you will find the oldest hotel in Fiji and possibly the Pacific, the Royal Hotel. Spend the time wandering

4. School and Village visit What a better way to experience the Fijian culture than to visit a local village and school. Here you have the opportunity to see the everyday life of the Fijians, and learn more about the culture and heritage. The children at the schools will be more than happy to show you around and find it just as entertaining to learn from you and your country. Try and take some small educational gifts to the children as mostly their supplies are limited.

5. Absorb the atmosphere Why do anything at all when you can just lay out your towel, kick back and soak up the sunshine to the sound of blue waters lapping and pristine white sand beaches. After all, it is Fiji and well known for its “Fiji Time”. So take your watch off, switch off the mobile phone and kick off your shoes. Enjoy the ultimate in relaxation with nothing but time to chill out, breathe the fresh air and feel the sand between your toes.

The team at Helloworld are here to help every step of the way, so if you have any questions about exploring Fiji, contact them on 1300 737 544. If you pop into the store, do note that Helloworld Main St Murwillumbah is now open Saturdays 9am -12pm.

Court House Hotel’s big donation as drought worsens HIV testing encouraged

By Jo Kennett THE OWNERS of the Court House Hotel in Murwillumbah have provided a big boost to the Murwillumbah District Supporting Aussie Farmers, presenting them with a $3,000 cheque towards drought relief.

Tracy Law, who coordinates Murwillumbah District Supporting Aussie Farmers with Donna Needham, said they had recently run out of desperately needed funds and the money would go towards their Christmas Hay Run to Bonshaw NSW on December 1.

“This will buy a truckload of hay and two pallets of calf feed so it’s a huge help,” she said.

“Farmers are so disheartened by the government’s lack of help and it gives them such a boost knowing people actually care what happens to them.

“We are still looking for more funding - we know people have given already but this drought is different to any drought before, it’s worse and it’s just getting worse all the time and at the end of the day it’s going to affect us all.”

Co-owner of the Court House Hotel Luana Dunbar said that the owners try to help out the local community where they can and had run raffles, Parma for a Farmer and the fishing club had also donated money from their raffles.

“When we saw what was happening with the drought and what Tracy, Tim and everyone was doing we decided to help out,” she said.

“What they have been doing is absolutely brilliant, the amount of effort they have put in and 100 per cent of it goes to the people that need it.

Court House Hotel owners with the Murwillumbah drought relief team

“After Christmas we will look at doing more fundraising for drought relief and though we will miss this hay run as we have Foodie Fest on, we are hoping to go out with the next run in the new year.”

The Christmas Hay Run will be truck driver Tim Newell’s seventh trip carting hay and other supplies in a donated O’Connors truck to different areas in need.

“It rains here but they’re not getting it out there,” Tim told The Weekly.

“I took a load out to Mingoola a few weeks back and they had a little bit of rain and there was some green grass shooting.

“Then I went back two weeks later it was like rock - there hadn’t been any more rain and it was all dead again.”

Tracy said they were also collecting donations at the Roundabout Takeaway for Christmas hampers including IGA vouchers, good quality toys, something for teenage boys and girls and something nice for mums and dads, all wrapped and labelled (for example boy aged 7 - 9).

“We started this whole thing when I heard about the statistics of farm suicides and I was so horrified so I was just trying to raise awareness,” she said.

“We started by donating $3 a coffee at the Roundabout Takeaway and so far we have raised $19,000 which has been matched by Coles Murwillumbah.

“We’ll keep going as long as the drought does because these farming families need our help and support more than ever.”

WITH ALMOST half of all people diagnosed with HIV in the late stage of infection, NSW Health is marking HIV Awareness Week by urging those at risk to be regularly tested.

During HIV Awareness Week (23-30 November) and in the lead up to World AIDS Day on December 1, NSW Health is reminding people to test for HIV with various high quality HIV testing options now available.

In 2018-19, NSW Health is investing $21.9 million in services to strengthen HIV testing, treatment and prevention.

Northern NSW Local Health District Manager of HIV and Related Programs, Jenny Heslop said NSW is on track to achieve its goal of virtually eliminating HIV transmission by 2020, with a 23 per cent drop in the number of new diagnoses in NSW. “We want to see this downward trend continue and urge anyone at risk of HIV to ensure they are regularly tested,” Ms Heslop said.

“Once a person is diagnosed, they can start treatment early, improve their health and prevent the virus from being passed on to others.”

From January to September 2018, 191 NSW residents presented with a newly diagnosed HIV infection compared with 249 during the same periods in 2013-2017, according to the NSW HIV Data Report.

This reduction is due to more people seeking early testing and treatment, as well as the introduction of pre-exposure prophylaxis for HIV (PrEP),” Ms Heslop said.

PrEP, the use of medications to prevent HIV in those at risk, is also used traditionally to treat the infection. It is available on the Pharmaceutical Benefits Scheme.

The highly successful NSW Health EPIC-NSW trial made PrEP available to 9,414 people at risk of HIV from March 1, 2016 to April 30, 2018.

The data also shows from January to September 2018 there were 42 per cent fewer Australian-born men having sex with men diagnosed with early stage HIV infection, compared to the same period over the past five years.

“HIV in overseas-born men who have sex with men as well as heterosexual men, is often diagnosed late, which can lead to avoidable HIV-related illness,” said Ms Heslop. For information on HIV testing, visit www.health.nsw.gov.au/ hiv-test

Golfing fun in memory of Katie Bain-Low Tyalgum Hall funding

By Jo Kennett THE KATIE Bain-Lowe Memorial Golf Challenge was held on Sunday, November 11, at Murwillumbah Golf Club, attracting a field of 166 players who enjoyed a great day in honour of a much-loved local and raised more than $18,000 for Camp Quality.

Katie passed away in 2016 and her father Alan Lowe has spent much of the last year organising the annual event.

“It was a Shotgun start Ambrose with teams of four and it was a day full of fun and laughter,” Alan said.

“It was about raising awareness of bowel cancer which Katie passed away from it was about remembering Katie.

“It also helped Camp Quality to raise much-needed funds for kids living with cancer and their families and it was a chance to bring the community together celebrating life in honour of Katie.”

Alan said that Rotary put on a sausage sizzle for the event.

“We had novelty holes, like teeing off with a cricket bat or a baseball bat and shooting down the fairway with a sling shot,” he said.

“There was teeing off a tyre tube where players stood on a tyre tube and teed off.”

Alan said the “whole vibe was awesome”.

“Everyone was so friendly and everyone was just there to have fun,” he said.

“We just made sure everyone was having fun and enjoying it.

“Friends of Katie’s told us that this was their favourite day of the year.”

Alan’s brother passed away from cancer in 2012 and he said Katie wanted to do something to help.

“She joined Camp Quality and became a fundraiser,” he said.

Katie's grandfather, uncle, mother, auntie and cousin

“Then they asked if she wanted to be a companion on the camp for kids - they take the siblings of the sick kids as well.

“Unfortunately after three years of looking after them she got bowel cancer.”

Alan said there was a Camp Quality charity golf day in Coffs Harbour that folded so Rachel Hardie decided to bring it up to Murwillumbah.

“Rachel and Katie started it and then after Katie passed away we wanted to continue the day,” he said.

The group has raised a total of $51,000 for Camp Quality in the three years the event has run in Katie’s honour and the event will be held again on November 17 next year.

“Everyone was so positive and said what a wonderful day it was and they are all coming back next year,” Alan said.

“The event wouldn’t happen if it wasn’t for the help of Rachel and Andrew Hardie and all the Camp Quality volunteers.”

Alan said that people were really open to helping raise money, they just need an avenue.

“I just try to make sure everyone is having a great time because that’s what helps my wife Dianna and I,” Alan said.

“It gives us a great deal of satisfaction that Katie is still weaving her magic.”

FEDERAL MEMBER for Richmond Justine Elliot recently announced the Tyalgum Community Hall Association will receive $7,230 in federal funding to refurbish the main hall and stage floors under the Stronger Communities Programme.

“I congratulate Tyalgum Community Hall Association on this important project,” she said.

“They will match the federal funding of $7,230 bringing the total value of the project to $14,465, which will go towards restoring, enhancing and protecting the Tyalgum Hall floor.”

The Tyalgum Hall is a landmark building in the region and a significant facility for the small community.

The Stronger Communities Programme funding will go towards restoring and polishing the hall’s floorboards to enhance and protect the heritage building.

“Something as simple as a well-maintained hall brings so much life to a regional community,” Mrs Elliot said.

“The people of Tyalgum have poured all their love into this hall, and I want to ensure this community can cherish the hall for generations to come.

“That is why I am proud to deliver this funding, to ensure the historical significance and community value of the Tyalgum Hall is restored and can be enjoyed by future generations.

“Our local Stronger Communities Programme delivers funding across the Richmond electorate for small capital grants supporting projects that will contribute to the vibrancy and viability of our region.

“I’ll always fight to get our fair share from Canberra.

“This funding is part of the more than $2 billion that I’ve delivered for local roads, schools, health and community resources.”

Donations to the student’s efforts can be made by contacting St Joseph’s on (02) 6672 1867.

Next on the St Joseph’s fun list is the pantomime Snow White, but not as you know it.

St Joseph’s has also been the talk of the town for its’ Theatre Company Pantomime.

Written and directed by Michele Lourie with Art Direction and Costumes by Kathy Egan, this year’s show promises hilarity, music, dancing and more than a few twists.

“It’s Snow White, but not as you know her, with a crocodile, horse and snake making an appearance,” St Joseph’s principal Jason Clarke said.

“As with all Pantomimes, cheering, calling out, singing along, dancing along and even ‘booing’ the baddies, are all encouraged.”

There will be a prize for the best dressed, so encourage your children and grandchildren to have fun with their outfit on the night.

Adult tickets are $10 and children under 12 are free making it an enjoyable and affordable evening out.

Tickets can be purchased from St Joseph’s or at the door on the night and a canteen will operate for half time goodies.

Snow White – The Pantomime will take place at The Gilbey Centre at Mt St Patrick College on Tuesday, November 27 at 6pm.

The event is proudly sponsored by Murwillumbah First National real estate consultant Kristie Hoffman.

THE SCHOOL fun is about to kick into overdrive at St Joseph’s Primary School, South Murwillumbah, as students and staff are preparing to end the year with a range of exciting activities.

First up is the messy fun of the school Colour Burst event, which will put the students to the test while they’re covered in coloured powder.

St Joseph’s is already well known for using technology to advance student learning across all curriculum areas under the guidance of teacher Kate Keogh.

Students explore apps, coding and 3D printing in their daily classes, preparing them to be 21st century learners.

Mrs Keogh also runs a Coding Club on a Thursday after school, for students who want to extend their knowledge in this area.

On Friday, December 14, students will participate in a Colour Fun Run, completing an obstacle course whilst having coloured powder thrown at them.

Kristie Hoffman, from First National Real Estate, has sponsored the non-toxic colourful powder that will be used on the day.

Kristie believes in the importance of supporting her local community and loves the idea that students will be fundraising to buy the school a class set of “Spheros”.

A “Sphero” is a tennis ball sized robot connected to a mobile device.

It can move at a speed of up to 7km per hour in any direction, spin, flip and change colour.

Students use code to direct the movement of the “Sphero” and develop the attributes

THE TWEED Shire has welcomed returned serviceman and Invictus athlete Peter Rudland, who has recently settled in the area and become a member of the Tweed Heads & Coolangatta RSL Sub-Branch.

Mr Rudland attended the Twin Towns Services Club Swimming Club Adult Interzone Diggers Carnival on Saturday, November 17.

The swimming carnival featured clubs from the Australian Imperial Force (AIF) swimming groups, which includes clubs from all over Northern NSW and Southern Qld. Twin Towns Swimming Club president Brent Anderson said it was a tough competition.

“After 48 rounds, it was Southport that emerged the winner followed by Twin Towns Club,” he said.

Mr Anderson said it was a great pleasure to host Mr Rudland at the event.

Now a qualified counsellor specialising in post-traumatic stress, Mr Rudland and his family relocated to Terranora from Western Australia earlier this year.

The 2017 Invictus Games Co-Captain and cycling gold medallist took part in the 2018 Invictus Games in Sydney in late October, alongside more than 500 competitors from 17 nations.

Mr Rudland told The Weekly that he’s enjoying Tweed life and loves the area.

“I was previously familiar with the Tweed as I was based near here,” he said.

Mr Rudland joined the Army in 1989 and was discharged late in 2016.

He served in Cambodia in 1993, East Timor in 2001 and 2006, Iraq in 1997 and 2003, and Afghanistan in 2010.

The cyclist and wheelchair rugby competitor suffered serious spinal and leg injuries in a Black Hawk helicopter crash in Afghanistan in 2010 and says sport had played an important role in his rehabilitation.

“Sport gives me something to work towards and reminds me that no matter how bad things get, there is always somebody worse off,” he said.

Get Motoring 27

Fuel prices forcing Tweed motorists into Queensland TWEED SHIRE residents concerned with fuel prices are being encouraged to shop around and do their research as motorists’ resort to crossing the border into Queensland to fill up and save more than 20 cents per litre.

The Weekly found one of the biggest differences in fuel prices was next to the border at Tweed Heads on Monday, November 19 (10am).

Coles Express Tweed Heads was charging around 153.4c per litre (E10).

However, less than two kilometres away in Queensland near the Gold Coast Airport an independent service station, Freedom Fuel, was charging 122.9c per litre (E10) (see picture).

Banora Point resident Lance Munday wrote to The Weekly this week expressing his concerns with the high fuel prices and asking for an explanation.

“Can someone please explain why fuel prices on the Tweed and at Banora are 20 cents a litre dearer than on the Gold Coast?” he said.

The Weekly put his concerns to the NRMA and included questions around the barrel price and where Tweed’s fuel is sourced.

NRMA spokesperson Rebecca Page said service stations across the Northern Rivers were “not doing anything wrong” and were

within their rights to set the litre price of fuel at the bowser.

“However, we encourage motorists to shop around and use information such as phone applications to find the most competitive prices on fuel each day,” she said.

“Do your research and if you know you’re travelling that day, or going to Qld, remember to check the NRMA Fuel app and find the best prices before you fill up.”

Mrs Page said Sydney had experienced a fuel price drop last week – “which could soon translate to price reductions across the Tweed Shire”.

“Certain movements in the market, including the strengthening Aussie dollar and increased supply, means reductions should be on the way,” she said.

Mrs Page said the Tweed Shire’s fuel was dispatched from Brisbane and she suggested contacting the RACQ for further comment.

RACQ media spokesperson Kirsty Clinton said retailers in Northern NSW and in areas such as Tweed Heads, Banora Point and Chinderah generally follow the Gold Coast price cycle.

“But with lower levels of competition in these areas, it often means some outlets charge higher prices than others,” she said.

“In recent months, the price of unleaded on the Gold Coast has been among the cheapest in the

state, sparking some competition among local retailers.

“There have been times when parts of Northern NSW have been cheaper than the Gold Coast, but it’s not typically the case.

“We urge motorists to check out the RACQ Fair Fuel price for their area and buy at or below this price – sometimes it may mean a short trip over the border.

“We are currently in the cheap phase of the fuel cycle so we’re urging motorists to buy fuel now.”

Page MP Kevin Hogan told ABC North Coast that he will demand an explanation of petrol prices in rural and regional areas when compared to city prices.

He’s calling for a royal commission into the alleged misuse of market

power by Australian supermarkets and petrol retailers.

“I want to see petrol prices in the country be the same as they are in the city,” he told the ABC. YOUR THOUGHTS: Do you travel more than 20 minutes to fill up? Where do you find the cheapest petrol? Send us your thoughts and letters to editor@theweekly.net.au

Stacks welcomes personal injury specialist HIGHLY EXPERIENCED personal injury specialist lawyer Chris Clarke has joined Tweed Heads Stacks Law Firm and will be working out of Murwillumbah.

With 24 years’ experience behind him, Mr Clarke’s excellence in the field was acknowledged 14 years ago when the NSW Law Society awarded him the hard-earned title of accredited specialist in personal injury.

Mr Clarke, 49, started his career as a trainee police officer intending to become a police prosecutor. That brought him firsthand experience of the dangers faced by police and the impact on their lives of injuries – both physical and psychological.

“I met so many police officers who were suffering long-term health problems from injuries received while protecting the community,” Mr Clarke said.

“The impact doesn’t end when bones mend or wounds heal. There is long term impact with serious physical disabilities and psychological wounds.

I became determined to do what I could to help these brave people get proper compensation so they could get on with their lives.”

As a lawyer specialising in personal injury Mr Clarke uses all his skills to get the best possible outcome for his clients.

“I meet people in terrible situations and your heart goes out to them,” he said.

One was a 11-year-old boy who lost his leg after being run over by a truck on a pedestrian crossing. Insurance companies mounted huge efforts not to pay the poor lad proper compensation, but I was glad to have won him a

Government provides certainty for clubs THE NSW Minister for Veteran Affairs David Elliott visited Kingscliff with Tweed MP Geoff Provest to sign a Memorandum of Understanding with General Manager of Kingscliff Beach Bowls Club Phil Kelly on Friday, November 19.

The new four-year agreement has been signed by the Premier, the Deputy Premier and the Minister for Racing, and Clubs NSW, and applies to the period following the 2019 election.

“The Memorandum of Understanding covers a wide range of issues important to the Government, to clubs and to the community, including delivery of workplace skills training, job creation, emergency support and responsible gambling,” Minister Elliot said.

“The commitment to enhanced responsible gambling initiatives includes the introduction of more effective exclusion schemes as well as enhanced staff training.”

Mr Provest said the memorandum provided certainty to clubs.

“It gives them certainty in their taxation regime and enables them to approach financial institutions for loans etc where, if there’s any uncertainty then they are stifled for financing projects,” he said.

“Our clubs are very important here. They are the first place people go to in a natural disaster, they’re the first people to put their hands in their pockets when people are doing it tough in our communities and they back a lot of sports and entertainment and they’re a great place for people to get a job in their local town.

“I think it’s great because now clubs have certainty.”

proper payment to enable him to get on with his life.”

Mr Clarke still helps a lot of injured police with compensation, but also nurses, ambulance officers, firefighters and workers.

“I am glad I had that experience as a police trainee as it helps with the detective work tracking down witnesses, statements, and reconstructing the scene of the accident.”

Originally from Coffs Harbour, Mr Clarke has spent his life on the NSW north coast and Gold Coast. He’s a

keen surfer, likes playing guitar and spending time with his daughter and family.

Tweed Heads office manager, Bruce Charge, welcomed Mr Clarke to Stacks Law Firm.

“Chris will be a huge asset to the law firm and we look forward to working with him in the years to come,” Mr Charge said.

The Drover Ron passes after years in the saddle

Sunday Touch football raffle

EXPERIENCED DROVER and Murwillumbah local Ronald Kingsley Hopf passed away recently after decades of sharing his skills breaking horses and moving stock from the Tweed Valley to Byron Bay. The following information was compiled by the Hopf family in honour of their father’s memory and lifelong commitment to the Tweed Shire.

Ron was born on the March 17, 1921, in Kyogle and was the youngest of 10 children to parents Ellen Mary Payne and Charles Hopf.

At the young age of just 14, Ron broke in his first horse which was a skill that would serve him well in the years to come.

Working with Bill Flick, Ron had his first droving experience, moving stock from Murwillumbah to Byron Bay, a trip that would take three days.

From an early age Ron was a skilled horseman who was capable of breaking and training horses and brumbies, working with his well-trained dogs to drove and muster cattle.

He started work droving for the Byron Bay Meatworks, a job he held for 27 years.

He worked away from home frequently and was renowned for the stories and

A SPECIAL raffle and fundraising event in support of the Murwillumbah Touch Football Association will take place at the Brother’s Leagues Club on Sunday, November 25, from 2pm.

Members, visitors and the general public are invited to show their support for this local club who will also give a donation to Wedgetail Retreat.

The event will raffle off an outstanding piece of artwork by Daniel Evans and a Gray-Nicolls cricket bat signed by David Warner, as well a range of other prizes valued at $5000.

Murwillumbah Touch Football president Lionel Alexander said raffle tickets would also be available for sale prior to the 2pm deadline.

“A donation will also be made to Wedgetail Retreat on the day,” he said.

Mr Alexander said the club was also seeking more touch football players for the upcoming season.

“We’ve got some good numbers but we’re always seeking men and women aged 35 and up as well as juniors,” he said.

“Anyone wishing to donate any prizes on the day can drop them off at the club.”

For further inquiries please phone Lionel on: 0432 667 438 The Brothers Leagues Club is located at the end of Frances Street in Murwillumbah West.

tales he would later tell about this time in his life.

In the early 1960s, Ron and his wife Fay purchased a house in Rous Street and moved in with their six children this would remain their family home until 2017.

In March 1965, Ron, Fay and the three youngest children moved from Murwillumbah to Standby Station, Kentucky, where Ron had secured employment as the head stockman.

Ron and Fay remained on Standby Station until Ron retired, returning to Murwillumbah in the late 1970s.

Ron and Fay once again lived at 15 Rous Street, and Ron worked locally with Jock Murname breaking in horses as well as drenching, shoeing and providing old time remedies and care to local animals.

Ron was well known for his skill at working his dogs with a group of ducks on the soccer park near their house.

He won many trophies with his dogs in working dog trials around the area.

As Fay’s health deteriorated, Ron remained by her side, dedicated to caring for her in their home.

Sadly, in late 2013, Fay was hospitalised and then moved to a nursing home at Pottsville.

After 68 years of marriage, this separation was heart breaking, with Ron visiting the nursing home regularly.

On May 26, 2015, Ron and Fay celebrated their 70th wedding anniversary with family, proudly receiving messages from the Queen and parliamentary dignitaries.

In 2017, Ron moved into Heritage Lodge, where he was once again able to live with Fay and the house at Rous Street was sold.

Ron was able to enjoy day trips and rekindle old friendships during this time with other Lodge residents. Fay’s health continued to decline, and she passed away on November 9, 2017.

After Fay’s death, Ron’s mateship grew with fellow residents and he was popular with the nursing staff, renowned for his old-time yarns and stories.

He remained lively and sociable, enjoying visits from family and friends and it was only during the last month that he declined, passing away peacefully on October 2, 2018.

Ron is survived by by his six children and their families: Robyn, Gary, Trevyn, Grame, Gayle and Rick.

Local couple celebrates 70 years MOUNTAIN VIEW couple Jim and Audrey Murray are celebrating 70 years of happy marriage on Monday, November 26, and have shared some of their secrets to marriage success.

The Weekly visited the couple at their Mountain View apartment to talk about what makes a happy marriage and to also discover more about Jim’s World War II experience in a B24 bomber.

Audrey, 90, and Jim 92, met in Newcastle and were married in 1948 after Jim was discharged from the Royal Australian Airforce.

The couple have seen a lot of Australia together and were previously living at Bribie Island, before making the shift to Mountain View 13 years ago.

“We love it here, it’s been a great place to settle and we’re closer to family,” Audrey said.

The couple reflected on seven decades of marriage and said two things were extremely important in order to stay together.

“Manners and love,” Audrey said.

“You need to express lots of love and maintain your manners around your partner and you’ll stay together.”

The couple had two sons and a daughter and now have great grandchildren.

Jim also has some amazing stories and photos from his time as a ball gunner in a B24 Liberator Heavy Bomber during World War II. “It was known affectionately as the flying “boxcar”, it truly lived up to its name with a crew of eleven, a bomb load of 3600 kilos and a range of 3,400km,” he said.

Aveo Mountain View celebrates 30 years MORE THAN 150 senior residents at Aveo Mountain View retirement community Murwillumbah came together recently in celebration of the community’s 30th anniversary.

It was 30 years ago this month that Aveo Mountain View community opened its doors.

Original residents, Joyce Harnett, Peter Izon and Margaret Dobbie were in attendance at the celebrations and were invited to cut the birthday cake.

Guests enjoyed the delicious seafood buffet and champagne followed by cake and treats for dessert.

Austin Curtin, the Nationals candidate for the seat of Lismore, joined the celebrations with Aveo Executive staff and gave a speech about the lovely close-knit community.

Many wonderful stories were shared from the early days of the community while guests were entertained by a local band, The Innkeepers, with Iris folk music and lots of dancing.

Several Mountain View residents reflected on the anniversary with some fond memories.

“I have had some very happy memories over the last 28 years, recently sharing my 70th Wedding Anniversary with my husband Bill in the Aveo Mountain View serviced apartments dining room,” Margaret Dobbie said.

“I put a deposit down 30 years ago and still love living in my Aveo Mountain View unit.

My husband and I needed to downsize so I picked out my favourite unit here and moved in later that year,” Joyce Harnett said.

“I has a wonderful day celebrating and have never seen so many people in the community centre before.

“I’ve made a lot of friends here that I never would have met if I did not move in all those years ago.”

Peter Izon said he has lived in the village for 28 years and has been “really happy”.

“I enjoy being able to lock up my unit and leave while away travelling because I know my friends in the village would look after it for me,” he said.

“I love it here and am have a great time with friends, new and old.”

Poet launches new book at Regent Cinema

FILMS th Mia wi

BOY ERASED

For people like us living in Australia in this time and age especially after the giant steps made in the last few years by society and law in terms of acceptance of homosexuality - it may seem absurd that young men would be sent to re-education camps to treat them for this.

But it happens..! Boy Erased is a film directed by Joel Edgerton and based on the 2016 memoir by the same title written by Garrard Conley, recounting his childhood in a fundamentalist Arkansas family that enrolled him in conversion therapy.

Matt Hetherington will launch his new poetry book at the Regent this Sunday.

“It’s truly one of the most radiant parts of Australia, I reckon. The name of my book, The Love of the Sun, is a reflection of that and there are a few poems inspired by the area, including one on the recent huge flood, when I was living in Uki. “I think the highest art gives people joy and I don’t know if I’ve done a lot of that but it’s the ultimate - you want to inspire people to become more authentically themselves.”

Matt said he wanted to support the Regent Cinema because it was “a big part of the value of the area”.

“It’s a wonderful place to have events and they seem to be happening there more and more,” he said.

“Murwillumbah has a lot of potential and is really starting to thrive with all sorts of amazing artistic culture.

“I’m looking forward very much to seeing more people who are interested in literature and live music in this town.”

Matt’s book, The Love of the Sun, will be available for $12.95 on the day. This free event starts at 2pm at the Regent Cinema on Sunday November 25. https://recentworkpress.com/

The only child of a car salesman and soon-to-be Baptist pastor, Conley was “terrified and conflicted about his sexuality”. At nineteen, while in college, he was outed as gay to his parents and given the choice of being disowned or being subjected to gay conversion therapy that promised to cure his homosexuality.

Conley was enrolled in a ‘Love in Action’ program, and recounts the harm he was subjected to there in the name of curing his sexuality.

Apparently in the USA 700,000 thousand people have been subjected to such treatment, and it is still happening. But who benefits from gay conversion therapy? Do the parents, who send their queer and questioning kids to be “cured” of their same-sex attractions? Do the young people who are brainwashed into denying the urges they are told are sinful?

Does God? No, only the charlatans who run such camps seem to thrive, while everyone else winds up hating themselves..!

Boy Erased stars Lucas Hedges, Nicole Kidman, Russell Crowe, and Troye Sivan in compelling performances, with the story told in non-linear style, intercutting the protagonist’s experiences at the conversion center with the experiences in high school and college that led him to be sent there by his parents.

MURWILLUMBAH-BASED writer, DJ, and teacher Matt Hetherington will launch his latest collection of poetry at the Regent Cinema this Sunday afternoon, November 25, with help from poet Benjamin Wild and musician Andy Jans-Brown.

“These two guys are both lovely human beings and really talented artists, so it’s fantastic I can share their artistry with everyone and launch a book as well,” Matt said.

“It’s my fifth book but each time it’s a great thrill – it’s just about the best part of being a writer.

“A launch is such a celebration of all the work that’s gone into the writing of the book which may otherwise not be celebrated publicly.”

Matt grew up in Canberra and lived for twenty years in Melbourne, as well as residing briefly in Brisbane and Sydney, before moving to the Tweed Valley a little over two years ago.

“One of the themes of the book is escaping Melbourne and the joy of that and coming to this place because I love it so much and I love the sun,” he said.

“I felt like I’d come home - I feel it about northern NSW but especially Murwillumbah. When I come to the cane fields at Condong I feel like I’m home.”

Matt said that most people who live here know how special the area is.

“For me, it’s the perfect blend of artiness, industry, phenomenal local produce, and a landscape that radiates a unique sort of peacefulness,” he said.

Caldera Wildscapes open day CELEBRATING its first anniversary since relocating from the flood-stricken Murwillumbah Visitors Centre at Budd Park, the Caldera Wildscapes Gallery is hosting an open day on Saturday, December 1.

Having now been established for just 12 months above the Court House Hotel at 60 Murwillumbah Street, the gallery is conveniently located in the middle of town with access to the upstairs spaces immediately next to the hotel's main entrance.

The gallery and working artists space will be open from 9am till 4pm for visitors and locals to experience some of the shires most dedicated and passionate artists depicting the natural world.

Members of the Caldera Wildscapes Art Group will demonstrate painting techniques and share their secrets on how they create superb artworks which showcase the flora, fauna and landscapes of the Tweed region. Visitors of all ages will also be encouraged to make their own personalised Christmas cards.

"Since the Courthouse Hotel so generously offered this space to us over 12 months ago, we have been able to not only house the mighty Green Cauldron Panorama painting but also establish a venue for a number of up-and-coming local artists," gallery co-ordinator Andy Reimanis said.

“These brilliant local artists deserve support and acknowledgement.

“Amanda Burns in particular, one of the resident artists in the gallery over the last few months, has been amazingly creative considering its only her first year as a visual artist.”

Established in 2008, the original Caldera Art Gallery was housed in the former visitors centre in Budd Park.

“Unfortunately, this building was badly flood affected and we had to move on, along with the 20-metre-long Ppanorama painting which was relatively undamaged,” Andy said.

“During our open day, I will also be giving regular talks on how the panorama was created and saved from the March 2017 floods.”

Caldera Wildscapes has recently published three new books: Wollumbin Mt Warning, The Tweed River (Part 1 Mountains to Murwillumbah), and The Spectacular Tweed with copies available at the gallery (as well as copies of the first book The Tweed).

“We are also particularly proud of our new Caldera Wildscapes 2019 Calendar, range of Christmas cards, and many other gift ideas which have an empathy with the Tweed and its superb flora and fauna.”

Friday 30th Nov

THE REGENT Cinema in Murwillumbah will host the outstanding Australian film Jirga on Thursday, November 29, with a special guest visit from the director.

Jirga is Australia’s official submission for the Best Foreign Language Film at the Oscars in 2019.

The film tells the extraordinary and extremely dangerous story of a former Australian soldier who travels to Afghanistan to seek forgiveness.

Three years after an Australian army helicopter raid on a small village led to the killing of an unarmed man, former Australian soldier Mike (Sam Smith) returns to Afghanistan to find the victim’s family.

Doggedly, he sets off on a perilous journey over a terrain where both the Taliban and ISIS are active.

Mike is determined to make amends and so puts his life in the hands of the Jirga – the village justice system.

Murwillumbah will be honoured to have the film’s director/writer Benjamin Gilmour along in person to introduce the film.

Written and directed by Mr Gilmour, produced by John Maynard and starring Sam Smith, the film has already received a range of high praise.

“We are thrilled about the honour of representing Australia,” Mr Gilmour said.

Jirga will screen at the Regent next week

“For us it’s the recognition of what Jirga has to say and the fruits of human crosscultural collaboration.

“Being selected for the Oscars is also about the company our film is in.

“I hope Jirga will now reach a much bigger audience.”

Mr Maynard said he could not be happier with the result.

“Following the Cinefest Oz Best Film Prize and the film’s international premiere at Toronto, I could not be happier to see this film receive this new international honour.”

Jirga will be screened at the Regent Cinema on Thursday November 29, at 6pm.

Candidate slams “Sydney-centric” funding

THE LIVING Valley is this week looking at one of the most debated native Australian birds, the Australian white ibis, which has been written by Banora Point Primary School students Mia Lord and Dhelila Ratcliffe.

While not everyone considers the ibis to be their favourite bird, having taken on names such as “bin chickens” or “tip turkeys” since the 1970s, the ibis is a native species and like all natives plays a vital role in the Tweed Shire’s ecosystem.

Ibis do not live in dry habitats because in order to breed they need to be near a body of water.

Swamps, lagoons, floodplains and grasslands are the areas where they used to live but now, they mostly live in urban areas.

Historically it was extremely rare to find the ibis near urban areas because they had not adapted to these areas.

Ibis group together and make their nests, often sharing it with the strawnecked ibis.

Even when they have found a mate, they will still group together, most likely to protect the eggs and offspring from attacks.

Because of how adaptable the ibis is, it is not in any danger of losing its habitat.

The Australian white ibis eats a variety of food from small frogs, fish, earthworms, snakes, mice and carrion, with their favourite foods being crabs and mussels.

They use their long, curved bill to probe in the mud for their prey and swallow them whole.

When eating mussels, the bird will repeatedly smash its outside shell until it opens.

If the ibis somehow runs out of food in their ecosystem, the flock will fly together to another area in search of food.

Other birds will often follow the ibis to eat anything it disrupts or drops. A large percentage of the ibis’ diet consists of human waste.

The breeding of the Australian white ibis is very interesting. The only

The Australia White Ibis is an Aussie icon and also known as a “bin chicken”.

difference in the north and south of Australia is the months in which they breed.

In the north, they will breed in the autumn months whereas in the south they will breed in spring.

To attract a female, a group male ranging from 3-4 years old, will band together and show off, usually dancing.

Females will fly over and pick the male with whom she wishes to bare her offspring.

Once the two have bonded, they will fly to a low swampy area and build a nest of leaves, sticks, mud and twigs.

The eggs are a light grey colour and approximately 44-65 mm in diameter.

Females will usually lay 9-12 eggs.

Incubation will last 21-23 days and during that time, the mother will stay and protect the eggs but occasionally the father will take over and guard the nest.

When chicks are born, they are featherless and helpless unable to fly or hunt yet.

After about 40-60 days, the chicks will leave the nest.

In Tweed Heads and other urban areas, the main threat to the ibis are stray animals.

Ibis eggs and offspring are often the target of predators.

To prevent these attacks, both parents will stay at the nest but when food is needed, the male will go and hunt while the female protects the nest.

The Australian white ibis only has one native predator, the Saltwater Crocodile however since they live in salt water, it is rare for them to catch an ibis.

STATE LABOR candidate for the seat of Lismore Janelle Saffin believes regional areas such as Northern NSW continue to be “ripped off” by the Berejiklian Government through the Restart NSW Program.

Mrs Saffin said the program was failing to meet the requirement for 30 percent of infrastructure spending going to regional NSW. She described the loss as a devastating blow for regional NSW, who have “again been neglected by the Sydney-centric Liberal-National Government”.

“This is clear evidence that the Liberal-National Government have the wrong priorities,” Ms Saffin said.

“That money would have made a significant contribution to school, hospital and infrastructure funding in regional NSW. “This Government is underfunding regional infrastructure.

“They are spending billions of dollars on stadiums in Sydney and yet again those of us in the regions are neglected.

“Sydney stadiums and doubtful road and light-rail construction in Sydney always come first and the Nationals do nothing to stop it.”

Mrs Saffin said regions and, in particular, Northern NSW have been “robbed of its rightful share of State money”.

“Thirty percent of the population live in regional NSW and it is outrageous that year after year we have to put up with dreams of aggrandisement for Sydney at our expense,” she said.

“We are not asking much – just to be treated fairly.

“In fact, the Liberal-National Government have underspent in regional NSW for four years running.”

Mrs Saffin provided a graph indicating the expenditure in percentages for the Restart NSW program which in 201718 equated to17 per cent and was previously 25 per cent in 2014-15.

The failure to meet the 30 percent Restart NSW target was revealed in a recent Auditor-General’s report on the 2017-18 State Finances.

“NSW Labor leader Michael Daley used his first Question Time to bring the Premier to task for ripping off regional NSW by failing to meet the 30 percent requirement for Restart NSW infrastructure spending to go to regional NSW,” she said.

“NSW Labor believes that money would have made a significant contribution to school, hospital and infrastructure funding in our Lismore Electorate.

“This Coalition Government does not deliver for Regional NSW. “That is why I am standing as a Candidate at the next State elections in four months’ time.”

There are just four of our French Mastiff x pups left - all females. They are delightful dogs, very easy going but obviously lively pups who have some basic obedience training which will need to be continued. If you can give a puppy a permanent, loving home please contact Pam on 0421017461. Visit friendsofthepound.com to view other dogs and cats looking for a home.

FEATURED BUSINESS

Hi, My name is Bernard Grant.

Some of you may recognise me from my 10 years of service with a long established locally owned family business selling pumps, fencing equipment & other rural products.

What you may not know is that I have now started my own business “Grant’s mobile Shearing” and with an extensive background & experience in the agricultural industry (Having grown up on the family farm in central west NSW, then going onto manage a sheep station & moving into irrigation sales/servicing) I am best suited to assist with all your

rural property needs.

Having started my business approx 3 year ago doing some sheep shearing on weekends (hence the name: Grant’s Mobile Shearing), I could see an increasing need to branch out and offer other services.

These include rural fencing (star picket, electric fencing, round yards, post & rail), Stock water design and installation, Irrigation systems, Concrete tank repairs and liners, Pump sales & repairs.

General small farm maintenance services also included. I pride myself on offering a professional, reliable

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.

THE ANODE IN YOUR SYSTEM SHOULD NEVER BE ALLOWED TO CORRODE AWAY, WHATEVER TYPE OR BRAND OF SYSTEM YOU HAVE SOLAR, ELECTRIC, GAS OR HEAT PUMPS Cutaway section of a typical electric hot water heater

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

It can cost more than $200 for a skip!

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

Fully Insured – 6 Months Warranty

Comes with a 5 year warranty ~ Make your Hot Water System last for 30 years!

Holding with Shot Judy Tuckey THE TBDWBA Champion of Club Champions Championship resulted in a grand day of top quality bowls on display as the District’s eight Club’s Singles champions descended on the greens at Cudgen Leagues to do battle.

Round One saw Byron Bay’s Judy Wright facing off against Cudgen Leagues’ Elizabeth Fleming. Wright led for the first 5 ends with Flaming taking over and holding a narrow lead for the next 8 ends. Wright came to the fore again and holding the lead, closed the game with a narrow margin. The June Foran (Cabarita) Vs. Carolyn Caine (Condong) clash resulted in a tough day at the office for Caine. In a tough encounter, Foran was able to eliminate Caine and take the game with a comfy margin.

The Coral Nathan (Pottsville) Vs. Kerry Dexter (Brunswick Heads) game proved to be a tough spar for Dexter as Nathan dominated throughout to close the game with a handy surplus. Ocean Shores’ Barbara Sprengel progressed straight through to the semis due to a forfeit from Kingscliff’s Jan Mitchell, thus having to face off against Judy Wright in her first

TVSC competes on the mighty Clarence – record Corsair numbers LAST WEEKEND nearly 40 TVSC members, friends and family headed south to Big River SC’s Bridge to Breakers Regatta at Harwood on the Clarence.

The 10 TVSC boats, including 7 three handed Corsairs, competed in the marathon race on Saturday starting in a moderate breeze and sunny blue skies. An hour later, up the other end of the course, the tide was raging and the swell and wind gusts had picked up.

One of TVSC’s best sailors, Peter Skinner from Terranora on Corsair Epic went for a couple of swims with his crew Mark Storrier and Greg Martin from Uki – they were up and sailing again quickly though. Greg was completely new to the sport of dinghy sailing and loved his wild adventure as did wife Christine and son Konnor also sailing on Corsairs.

As they came to the finish line 3 hours later, the sky had turned a threatening black and thunder rumbled close by. Most of the boats made it to the finish as the rain started to pelt down but two of the TVSC Corsairs, Adrift and Nimbus, had to pull in to the safety of the bank and were welcomed by local prawn fishermen to shelter in their shed until the storm passed… stories of eating freshly cooked prawns and sipping champagne may have been scurrilous rumour.

TVSC Commodore Bill Fenelon, with junior crew Kynan Luescher from Fingal

and Konnor Wheeler from Uki on Corsair 199 Minnow, were the first Corsair to cross the line in the marathon race. Corsair Swell Lady still managed to finish, and in 2nd place, despite their jib sail ripping off the wire. Deborah Flannery was the hero of the day fixing the sail as they continued to race!

Sunday saw clear skies again and racing started early getting two short sprints in before lunch and finishing up the regatta with another longer race in the afternoon.

TVSC’s Dave Chester on Hobie 16 Sledder flew round the multihulls course beating everyone home on Saturday and did well against the Nacra’s on Sunday too until a freak wind shift stole his lead and left him in last place on the final race. He still took 2nd place in the multihulls.

Monique Smith won 1st place in the Corsair Class on Swell Lady with Matt Andrews and Deb Flannery with Bill Fenelon’s Minnow coming 2nd. Peter Skinner, Mark and Greg on Corsair Epic took a hard earned 3rd prize – well done everyone.

As always, the weekend provided many stories to entertain us all at the evenings BBQ and memories to last as we look forward to the next Big River regatta next March.

Nothing beats a weekend of camping and sailing adventures with friends to clear the cobwebs before we hit the silly season. The kids had a ball too – lots of space to run around together when they weren’t sailing. It

At the helm

with Alison Blatcher

was too hard to leave for some of us so we stayed an extra night but it still felt like the weekend was over in a flash. Come and join us for the next one!

If you’re the kind of person who likes to pitch in we’d love to see you. Come and have a go at sailing or safety boat driving, timekeeping, restoring and repairing boats and trailers or putting together fabulous

post sailing spreads of food... there is always something creative to do. TVSC sails next Sunday from Fingal – fun sail down to the Chinderah Tavern for lunch and back again.

Start approx. 10.30am. Email tvscmail@ gmail.com or call 0434 982 922 for more info. Next racing at Fingal on Sunday Dec 2 – Sprint Series first race starts 1pm. www.tvsc.com.au

PARKO THE KingofCooly

looking for another

TRIPLE CROWN

2012 WORLD Champion Joel Parkinson was a vision of classic power surfing at the Hawaiian Pro and has won the event for the second time in his professional career.

He is now the front runner for the 36th Annual Vans Triple Crown of Surfing title after besting a dynamic final field that included Brazillian Mateus Herdy who earned runner up, Kiwi and occasional Gold Coast resident Ricardo Christie finished third and another Brazilian Deivid Silva who ended in fourth.

Parkinson will compete next at the Vans World Cup, at Sunset Beach, the final WSL QS 10,000 event of 2018, in his hunt for a fourth Triple Crown after he won the series three consecutive times in 2008, ‘09 and ‘10.

“Oh man, I’m just shocked, I just started to feel it, I feel like I want to surf another heat,” said Parkinson atop the awards stage. “I actually really enjoyed the event, that’s probably been the key for me at this stage of my career, to enjoy it.

That was enjoyable. I’ll miss moments like that but I’m glad they’re coming to an end.”

I talked to Parko last week, and he was pumped and ready to give it a real red hot go, to finish his stellar career with a bang. He is looking forward to hanging up the singlet, except for in January when he will be competing in the Burleigh Boardriders Single Fin Classic, on the 5th & 6th of January, and his mates Shane Dorian and Taj Burrow will be in the field as well.

The Triple Crown is judged on the surfers results in the three big Hawaiian events, Haleiwa, Sunset, and Pipeline.

Parko has won the most Triple Crowns of any Australian, and since it started 1983 he is the only Aussie to win it more

Tapped in to the waves

With Terry Tappa’ Teece

than once. Gary Elkerton, Tom Carrol, Bede Durbidge, and Julian Wilson are the only others to win it. At present Parko has three victories equalled by John John Florence, his good mate Andy Irons has four, along with Derek Ho. But I thgink it would be hard for anyone to catch Hawaiian enforcer, Sunny Garcia, who has won six! Kelly Slater has won only two, but be sure he will make some massive announcement when Joel wins the Triple Crown to rain on his parade – he has a habit of that.

What is sure is that Joel Parkinson is one of the greatest surfers of all time. He may have won only one title in 2012, but he is a stylish surfer who performs the same in 2 foot as he does in 20 foot. Power, style, and grace. I am pretty proud to have watched his whole career and been on the microphone for some of his victories. Go Parko – bring the Triple Crown home!!

And it’s On!

The next round of the Triple Crown, The World Cup of Surfing, at Sunset Beach, and the Women’s world title showdown on Maui starts next Sunday November 25, but will be on your screens here from 3am on Monday November 26. The waiting periods are the same, and guaranteed if the girls are surfing Honolua Bay, then Sunset Beach will be massive.

In the 2018 World Title Race, only Stephanie Gilmore and American Lakey Peterson are mathematically in contention to win the prestigious World Championship and await the Beachwaver Maui Pro. The World Title scenarios going into the Beachwaver Maui Pro are as follows:

- Gilmore will win the World Title with a 3rd or better at the Beachwaver Maui Pro. - If Gilmore finishes 5th or worse, Peterson must win the event to force a surf-off* for the World Title - *In the event of a tie for any World Title at the end of the Surfing Season, the tied Surfer will have a “surf-off” during the final Event, which will have the format determined by the Commissioner’s Office.

Stephanie from my local sources has been training the house down, is focused and ready to take it down. She is the best female surfer of all time and deserves that 7th World Title. Go Steph!!
