Wow, wow, wow!
I believe the first text I sent to Victoria and the team after hearing Cassowary Coast Life had officially been given the green light was simply: “yayayayayayyaya!” A very professional response for someone who uses words for a living, I know.
If we haven’t met yet, I’m Chelsea! I grew up in Ayr and have been writing for Life Publishing Group for almost three years, helping tell the stories that make regional communities such special places to live.
Growing up in the Burdekin, the Cassowary Coast was a regular feature of family road trips, especially during the school holidays, and I can still vividly remember stopping at the Cardwell Foreshore to stretch our legs, walk the dogs and grab a bite to eat before continuing on our way.
These days my travels look a little different- I’m currently working remotely from Latin America - but I still feel as connected to the Cassowary
Coast as ever.
Cassowary Coast Life is very much powered by local knowledge, thanks to Victoria Velton, our dedicated on-theground journalist who lives and works in the region. Victoria is always out and about attending events, meeting locals and uncovering the stories that matter most to the community, and it’s fair to say we’ve both been buzzing with excitement to see Cassowary Coast Life finally hit the streets.
Victoria and I would love to hear your stories, whatever they are – maybe a community event or local achievement, a fundraising effort, or simply someone doing something wonderful.
If you have a story idea, a tipoff, or just want to say g’day, please don’t hesitate to send me an email at chelsea@lifepublishinggroup.com.
We can’t wait to continue getting to know the region and sharing your stories.

BAGS OF KINDNESS FOR LOCAL PETS IN NEED
Cassowary Coast Paws and Claws Inc has thanked the community for helping make the SavourLife Pet Adoption Day a huge success, with local generosity translating into much-needed support for animals in care.
The volunteer-run not-forprofit animal shelter joined Pets Domain Innisfail on 30th May for the special event, bringing together pet lovers and supporters of animal welfare.
A big thank you goes to everyone who purchased a bag of SavourLife pet food on the day. For every bag purchased, SavourLife donated an additional bag of food, helping double the impact of the community’s support.
The shelter also extended its gratitude to Pets Domain Inn-
isfail for hosting the event and welcoming the organisation into the store, as well as SavourLife for its generous contribution of dog and cat food.
These donations will help provide essential supplies for animals awaiting their forever homes and support the ongoing work of Cassowary Coast Paws and Claws Inc.
As a volunteer-run organisation, the shelter relies heavily on the kindness and generosity of the local community to continue caring for animals in need.
The team said they were incredibly grateful for everyone who attended, donated and helped support the cause, proving that small acts of kindness can make a big difference for local pets.

Local Athlete Set To Defend World CrossFit Title
For most of his life, Dylan Crema from Tully has faced challenges that many people could never imagine. Born with Velo-Cardio-Facial Syndrome (VCFS), a genetic condition caused by a missing piece of chromosome 22q11.2, Dylan has lived with a range of associated health issues, including intellectual disability, low muscle tone, heart complications, and other medical conditions.
Despite these challenges, Dylan was always treated the same as his three siblings. His family encouraged him to live life to the fullest and pursue his goals like any other young person.
Everything changed during the COVID-19 pandemic when Dylan discovered CrossFit. With the support of his carer and coach Tracee Tozer, he committed himself to improving his health and fitness. Through hard work, determination, and countless hours of training, Dylan lost an incredible 35 kilograms and continued to grow stronger and fitter.
After entering a few local competitions, Dylan quickly realised he had a natural talent for the sport. Success at local events inspired him to aim higher, and before long he was competing on the international stage.
Now 26 years old, Dylan is the reigning Adaptive CrossFit World Champion in his division. Last year, he travelled to Las Vegas, where he competed against some of the world’s best adaptive athletes and claimed the world
title.
This year, Dylan has once again proved he belongs among the elite. After completing the online qualification process for the Adaptive CrossFit Games, he currently sits ranked number one in the world in his division. His next challenge will take him to San Jose, California, where he will defend his world title against 10 of the best adaptive athletes from across the globe.
Before heading to the United States, Dylan added another major achievement to his growing list of accomplishments. He recently competed at the Torian Pro, Australia’s premier CrossFit competition, where he won his division against some of Australia’s top adaptive athletes in the intellectual impairment category.
Dylan’s story is one of resilience, determination, and perseverance. From overcoming significant health challenges to becoming a world champion, he has shown that with support, dedication, and belief in yourself, anything is possible.
As he prepares to defend his world title in San Jose, Dylan carries not only the hopes of his family and supporters but also serves as an inspiration to people living with disabilities everywhere. Regardless of the outcome, Dylan Crema has already proven that champions are defined not by the obstacles they face, but by the courage they show in overcoming them.

CELEBRATING THE FIRST WEEK OF CASSOWARY COAST LIFE
The Heaviest Insect In Australia Was Only Recently Discovered Nearby
In 2025, scientists announced the discovery of Acrophylla alta, a giant stick insect from the Wet Tropics of North Queensland. Measuring up to 40 centimetres long and weighing around 44 grams, it may be Australia’s heaviest insect. Researchers believe it remained undiscovered because it lives high in remote rainforest canopies.
It’s a reminder that even today, North Queensland’s rainforests are still revealing secrets. Universities and wildlife documentaries often find themselves beneath the ancient trees learning, discovering, and documenting many reclusive and widely unknown species. Curious? Take a walk on the wild side: cassowarycoasttourism.com.au
We were thrilled to see locals picking up a copy of our first edition of Cassowary Life. Pictured are our very first readers – two lovely gentlemen from the men’s shed in Tully Thanks for the warm welcome, Cassowary Coast!

Wifi Program Sparks Connection Through Cassowary Coast Libraries
Residents of Kurrimine Beach and Tully Heads are now benefiting from improved digital access following the successful rollout of free community WiFi through Cassowary Coast Library & Museum Services. At Kurrimine, Mayor Millwood and Councillor Trudy Tschui were both in attendance of the rollout announcement, and at Tully Heads Councillor Chis Littlemore and Mayor Millwood where in attendance.
Funded through the Digital Starter Grant Program, part of State Library of Queensland’s Regional Digital Development project, the initiative has delivered free community WiFi at both community halls while expanding access to library services, technology support and digital learning opportunities in two of the region’s coastal communities.
The project was celebrated through Community WiFi Launch and Library Outreach Days held at Kurrimine Beach Progress Hall and Tully Heads Community Hall, where local residents gathered to explore the new service, connect with library staff and learn more about the wide range of digital resources available through the library.
Families enjoyed Cassowary Kids early literacy sessions, while community members took advantage of one-on-one technology assistance, support accessing online Council services and demonstrations of free eBooks, audiobooks, online learning platforms and other digital resources available through the library.
The initiative was developed in response to the connectivity and access challenges often experienced in smaller coastal and regional communities,
where reliable internet access and digital support services can be more difficult to access.
Importantly, the project delivers much more than internet connectivity. Funding has also enabled the creation of a roaming digital outreach kit, allowing Cassowary Coast Library & Museum Services staff to deliver technology programs, digital literacy assistance and library outreach activities beyond traditional library buildings.
The mobile technology will support ongoing outreach in communities with limited connectivity or reduced access to services, including Jumbun and other locations across the Cassowary Coast.
As more everyday services move online, digital inclusion has become increasingly important for community participation. Accessing government services, completing online forms, applying for jobs, communicating with family and friends, managing personal affairs and pursuing lifelong learning all rely on confidence with technology and reliable internet access.
The project aims to improve both access and confidence by providing residents with practical support close to home. Through free community WiFi, local technology assistance and regular outreach visits, community members are empowered to develop digital skills in a welcoming and supportive environment.
The launch events also marked the beginning of ongoing monthly outreach visits to both Kurrimine Beach and Tully Heads. These regular sessions will continue to provide technology support, digital literacy assistance, access to library resources, help navigating online services and opportunities for community connection. The success of the initiative demonstrates the value of targeted investment in regional communities and highlights the important role libraries play in fostering digital inclusion. By combining infrastructure, outreach and personalised support, the project creates lasting benefits that extend well beyond the installation of WiFi equipment.
Cassowary Coast Library & Museum Ser-
vices would like to thank State Library of Queensland for its support through the Digital Starter Grant Program and looks forward to continuing to build digitally connected, informed and resilient communities across the Cassowary Coast.
This new service has been made possible through the Digital Starter Grant Program, part of State Library of Queensland’s Regional Digital Development project, supported by the Department of Customer Services, Open Data and Small and Family Business.

Silver Ball Makes A Comeback
After a seven-year hiatus, the Silver Ball returned over the weekend, welcoming 240 guests and raising more than $20,000 for brain cancer research at its sold-out event.
Held at the Shire Hall in Innisfail, the masquerade-themed evening saw guests arrive in elegant masks, creating a fun, mysterious and sophisticated atmosphere for the
night’s festivities.
Organiser Rachel Accatino said she was overwhelmed by the level of community support, particularly amid ongoing costof-living pressures.
“There was such amazing support from the community. I’m speechless. It was such an incredible evening – thank you to
everyone who came along and made it so special,” she said.
Rachel lost her own father to brain cancer in 2017. The event was originally established in his honour, but he sadly passed away shortly before the inaugural ball.
The Silver Ball continued in 2018 and 2019 before the COVID-19 pandemic brought it to a halt in 2020.
“People kept asking us to bring it back,” Rachel said.
“One guy said he’d been waiting seven years for it to return!”
Rachel said the event holds a special place in the hearts of many local families affected by brain cancer.
She recalled one family who recently lost their father to the disease just one month after his diagnosis. The family purchased two tables for the event in support of the cause.
Raffles were held in the lead-up to the evening, while guests also bid on auction items and silent auction prizes throughout the night.
Although final figures are still being calculated, organisers have already confirmed the event raised at least $20,000.
Funds will be donated directly to the Mark Hughes Foundation, which supports research aimed at finding a cure for brain cancer.
“There is treatment, but there is no cure,” Rachel said.
Following this year’s successful return, organisers hope to establish the Silver Ball as a biennial event.
Rachel extended her gratitude to everyone who attended, the local businesses that donated prizes, Roscoe’s Catering and local band Beerbody for helping make the evening such a success.
On Wednesday 22nd July 2026, Tully State
School is holding
Open Night for parents, students and members of
community. The purpose of the night is for our school community to engage with our staff to explore subject options and pathway opportunities from Year 7 through to Year 12 and beyond.

The tuckshop will be open to purchase dinner, snacks and drinks.
In addition to our open classrooms, the following presentations will be conducted on the night in the MPC:

From The Rainforest To The Reef Katie Louise Bigg Transforms Rockingham Walls
Katie Louise Bigg has once again left her artistic mark on the region, unveiling a stunning series of largescale realism murals at Cardwell’s Rockingham Aged Care Centre.
Inspired by the region’s natural beauty, residents and staff worked closely to develop the theme of the artwork, which complements the facility’s residential wings while celebrating the diverse landscapes of North Queensland. Spanning from rainforest to reef, the murals feature an array of iconic local flora and fauna, including cassowaries, flying foxes and wompoo fruit-doves, alongside recognisable landmarks such as the Cardwell Spa Pools and Murray Falls.
Ms Bigg said she was overjoyed when she was commissioned to create the artwork, describing the opportunity to paint within an aged care facility as rewarding in many ways.
“It was so meaningful and special to paint at the Rockingham Aged Care Centre,” she said.
“The residents would walk by each day giving me encouragement, sit and watch me paint, or chat with me about their life experiences for hours. They really loved watching the works come to life, and I loved the whole experience. It was awesome to see them uplifted by the murals in
their environment.”
Beyond creating the artwork itself, Ms Bigg said one of the most memorable parts of the project was the relationships she formed with residents along the way.
She particularly recalled a friendship that developed with one gentleman who visited her each day while she worked.
“We spoke for hours about different moments in his life,” Ms Bigg said.
“He said his late wife was an artist and he showed me some of her work. He gave me lots of encouragement, and we shared plenty of laughs. He was also very impressed with the murals and loved watching them come together.”
Having brought colour to communities across the region for years, Ms Bigg has become known for her highly realistic murals and their emotional resonance; a painting style she says has always come naturally to her.
“I tend to lean towards highly saturated and high contract colours as with each piece I try to replicate the liveliness of the reference image I’m painting as best as I can,” she explained.
“When people see my murals, my intention is for them to experience love and
second vaccinations, vet check, microchipping, up to date parasite preventatives and desexing (desexing to be carried out when the kitten is 6 months old).
Interested in meeting Sir Phillip? Please get in touch to arrange a meet and greet. Call: 0428 807 461 or come out to the Cassowary Coast Paws & Claws Refuge during open hours Monday, Wednesday and Friday 10am - 12 noon and 3pm - 5pm, also Saturday 10am – 1pm.

wonder at looking at creativity, and what art can do. I want them to feel happy and inspired.”
With plans to continue exhibiting her talents across North Queensland, Ms Bigg cannot wait to commission her next piece to once again, share her love for art and storytelling with more regional communities.
“Projects I’m most passionate about are people and places that uplift the community, make people happy, and make wall spaces and environments look better,” she said.
“To reflect what people are proud about and love into a giant artwork, that makes me happy!”

Pasifika Celebration Brings Culture, Community & Colour To Innisfail
The Cassowary Coast Pasifika Celebration was held at Warrina Lakes in Innisfail on Saturday 20th June, bringing together Pacific Island communities and visitors for a full day of cultural performances, traditional food, market stalls and community activities.
Following a highly successful debut in 2025, which attracted close to 2,000 attendees, this year’s event once again show-
cased the cultural richness of the region and was warmly received by the community.
The community-led celebration was supported by the Queensland Government’s Celebrating Multicultural Queensland Events program and continued its focus on recognising and sharing the cultures, traditions and contributions of Pacific Island communities across the Cassowary
Coast, including participants in the Pacific Australia Labour Mobility (PALM) scheme. The event also honoured the region’s South Sea Islander community, acknowledging their long-standing cultural and historical contribution to the district.
Cassowary Coast Regional Council Mayor Teresa Millwood said the celebration played an important role in recognising the region’s diversity and shared history.
“The Pasifika celebration is a wonderful opportunity to honour the contributions of Pacific Island communities who have chosen to call the Cassowary Coast home, as well as those who support our industries through temporary work visas,” she said.
“It is also a chance to reflect on the strong heritage of South Sea Islanders who have shaped our region’s history and culture.”
Senator for Queensland, Nita Green, described the Pasifika Celebration as a fantastic celebration of culture and a great opportunity to connect with the community. Photo source: Facebook
A Fair Feed For A Fair Price At Mrs B’s Cafe
With 38 years of cooking experience under her belt, Mrs B is no stranger to the food scene. For the owner of Mrs B’s Cafe, the philosophy behind her business is encapsulated in a long-held belief that good food must be served at a good price.
“With my cafe, my food, I give a fair feed for a fair price, and that’s what I’ve always said.” said Mrs B.
“We’re here for longevity, not just as a fad. And that’s the only way you can do it.”
Judging by the delighted customers chatting merrily around their tables, it is a formula that works. The menu offers a generous mix of classic favourites, from eggs benedict and hearty big breakfasts to classic burgers and an inviting display cabinet. Among the most popular treats are the cakes and fresh peach blossoms, which are sourced from a local baker.
“We partner with a local lady so that we actually get fresh cheesecake, peach blossoms, which really walk out the door,” Mrs B says.
The pink treats are a distinct North Queensland delicacy, often causing a bit of confusion for visitors from down South.
“A lot of people from the South just don’t know what a peach blossom is,” she laughs.
“You’ll have to come into the café to find out!”
Beyond the daytime trade, the cafe extends its hours later in the week to capture the popular twilight crowd, transforming into a bustling hub for end-of-week takeaways and relaxed family dinners.
“I stay open Thursday and Friday night to cater for fish and chips, so we’ve started to put meal deals on our menu in the afternoons,” Mrs B says.
These evening sessions have fast become a local ritual, offering perfectly battered or grilled fish alongside classic hot chips, making it the ideal effortless option for busy families heading into the weekend.
True to her regional focus, she sources her fresh produce directly from the community, purchasing meat from the
local butchers, fresh local fish, milk from the local milk provider, and groceries from the IGA. This dedication to the region extends beyond the plate, turning the dining space into a hub for community talent.
“We support local artists and local product,” Mrs B says, “At the moment, we’re showcasing sugar cane syrup and we’ve also got a local lady that makes jewellery that we sell.”
“We’re about being local, supportive, and promoting local products.”
Ultimately, Mrs B’s Cafe is designed as a welcoming environment where patrons are encouraged to slow down, catch up, and stay as long as they like.
“We want people to be able to come in, sit down, and stay for as long as they like,” shared Mrs B says.
“That’s what we encourage. We don’t want you to have a coffee and make you go, so if you like your table, you’ve got it.”
Coupled with incredibly reasonable coffee prices, the cafe remains a steadfast, welcoming staple of Tully hospitality.

Coastal Recovery Enters Next Phase Across Cassowary Coast
Coastal recovery efforts are continuing across the Cassowary Coast, with revegetation works now underway at Cardwell, South Mission Beach and Wongaling Beach following the completion of sand nourishment projects earlier this year.
Cassowary Coast Regional Council announced the next stage of recovery will involve planting coastal vines, selected shade trees and undertaking vegetation management to help strengthen and protect local shorelines.
The plants, grown by Council in partnership with C4 – Community for Coastal and Cassowary Conservation, will play a key role in stabilising dunes, reducing erosion, supporting wildlife habitats and helping beaches recover more quickly from future weather events.
The works have been welcomed by some community members, with one resident describing the project as a “great initiative to replant the foreshore with natives” and noting that native coastal species could help reduce erosion during future cyclones and severe weather events.
Council has reminded residents to remove any personal items from foreshore areas to allow the works to be completed safely and efficiently.
The recovery program is being delivered with assistance from the Australian and Queensland Governments through the Disaster Recovery Funding Arrangements.
Planned Hazard Reduction Burn To Take Place At Dallachy Aerodrome
Aplanned hazard reduction burn will be carried out at Dallachy Aerodrome in Cardwell from 23rd June, weather permitting, as part of ongoing fire management efforts across the Cassowary Coast.
The operation is being undertaken by Cassowary Coast Regional Council in partnership with Girringun Aboriginal Corporation and the Queensland Fire Department (Rural Fire Service).
The planned burn aims to restore grassland and maintain healthy habitat, reduce bushfire risk to the aerodrome and surrounding infrastructure, and create a mosaic of burnt and unburnt areas to support both environmental and fire management outcomes.
Residents in Cardwell, Kennedy Valley and surrounding areas may notice smoke during the operation, with visibility potentially affected along the Bruce Highway. Motorists are advised to drive with caution if smoke is present.
Authorities are advising residents to keep windows and doors closed during periods of smoke and to ensure those with respiratory conditions have necessary medication on hand. The public is also reminded not to enter closed areas while operations are underway.
For updates on planned burns across Queensland, visit www.fire.qld.gov.au/ prepare/bushfire/permit-to-burn-map.
Cassowary Coast Expands Access to Dog Off-Leash Areas Across the Region
Dog owners across the Cassowary Coast have a range of designated off-leash areas available to exercise and socialise their pets, with Council highlighting the importance of responsible use to keep both animals and the community safe.
Cassowary Coast Regional Council has established off-leash spaces in Cardwell, Tully Heads, Tully, South Mission Beach, Wongaling Beach, Mission Beach, Kurrimine Beach, Innisfail and Cowley Beach, providing residents and visitors with accessible locations to let their dogs roam under full control.
The designated areas, including popular spots such as Coral Sea Park in Cardwell, Wildsoet Park in Tully, and Wrights Park in Innisfail, are designed to support healthy lifestyles for pets and owners while also helping reduce conflict in sensitive environmental and wildlife areas.
Council notes that dog offleash areas are an important community asset, offering opportunities for physical activity, social interaction and improved wellbeing when used responsibly.
Dog owners are reminded that even
in off-leash areas, animals must remain under control and respond to commands such as recall. Owners are also required to ensure dogs are not causing a nuisance to others, and that all waste is collected and disposed of appropriately.
Additional responsibilities include ensuring dogs are registered with Council, regularly wormed and kept up to date with vaccinations.
Council encourages residents to follow the Cassowary Coast Good Dog Owners Guide to help maintain safe, enjoyable and well-managed spaces for all users.
For more information or enquiries, residents can contact Cassowary Coast Regional Council on 1300 763 903 or via enquiries@cassowarycoast.qld.gov.au.
