Great PeopleMany options. Only one choice.

P arvovirus has taken the life of one local dog with two more

cases reported in Roxby Downs in the past couple of weeks.

The virus is highly con-tagious and Roxby Council has urged owners of dogs showing signs of the disease to keep them out of contact with other dogs, and take them straight to the vet.

“I have been here for nine years and I haven’t seen any case in that time,” Roxby Council’s Municipal Works Manager Peter Keller told The Monitor last week fol-lowing the outbreak.

“This is just a timely re-minder to make sure you keep up with your pet’s vac-cinations.

“Th is kind of thing is al-ways a concern in this town, with the people and animals

that are always coming and going.”

Symptoms of the parvovi-rus include bloody diarrhoea, fever, lethargy (lack of ener-gy), loss of appetite, malaise, rapid weight loss and vom-iting.

Th is serious virus is espe-cially dangerous to dogs six to 20 weeks old, and is par-ticularly fatal amongst Do-bermans and Rottweilers.

If the virus is detected ear-ly enough, fl uids, antibiotics and the care of a nurse might be enough to save the animal.

It is recommended that dogs are vaccinated at least once a year, to prevent the spread of these kinds of dis-eases .

“Th ere is no need to panic,” Mr Keller said.

“Just if your dog hasn’t been immunised, go and get it immunised.”

The Roxby Downs Stories Project was announced as one of three winners in the Heritage and

Culture Category at the KESAB Sustainable Community Awards last week.

Th e amazing local history project was showcased as part of last year’s 25th an-niversary celebrations , and included in-terviews with locals, photographs, video’s and the collection and collation of historic memorabilia.

Th e project was completed with the help of a dedicated committee of volun-teers who have now been recognised for their eff orts.

Roxby Downs Stories Project commit-tee member Michelle Hales, who accept-ed the award at a ceremony in Adelaide last week, said last year’s celebrations were an important historic milestone for Roxby Downs.

She said during the planning for the 25th anniversary celebrations last year, it had quickly become apparent the town had very little information documented to

record the pioneering spirit, adversity and resilience of the town’s past and present residents.

“It was time to start seriously thinking about our history because where we have come from helps shape who we are today and our future,” Ms Hales said.

Ms Hales said the award recognised the hard work of the Roxby Downs Stories Project Committee, and the long hours, passion, and enthusiasm it took to help preserve, protect and maintain the town’s cultural heritage.

“Even though Roxby Downs is only 25 years old we are living our cultural herit-age,” Ms Hales said.

“We felt we needed to start this process now because all the stories will be lost when people move away,” she said.

The Kesab Sustainable Community Awards – formerly known as the Tidy Towns awards, is now in its 36th year and remains a focus for hundreds of commu-nities to work together to showcase their town, community and region.

Over 150 category entries in 2014 showcased hundreds of thousands of vol-

unteer hours and eff ort, valued at over $20 million going towards environmental sustainability, action and improvement in the community.

Meningie was named the Overall Win-ner of this year’s awards.

Ms Hales said the local award win wasn’t the end of the success story – Rox-by’s story continued to unfold.

“Th e Stories Project hasn’t ended. It really is just the beginning.”

The Fire Danger Season for the North West pastoral dis-trict begins this Saturday,

November 1, but the CFS has already been busy with fi ve call outs in the past fortnight.

Roxby Downs CFS Brigade Of-fi cer Brett Atkins said the brigade had responded to a rescue, two

fi re alarms, the fi re at the Roxby Downs Area School and TAFE and a road crash incident.

“Th e Roxby Downs Brigade is trained to fight structure fires, HAZMAT (chemical spills), road crash rescue, bushfi res, and fl ood-ing (in conjunction with SES),” Mr Atkins said.

Th e Roxby Downs CFS Brigade is coming off a busy fi re danger season last year, having been called out to more than 3000 man hours.

“We had a rather busy fi re dan-ger season (last season). We sent fi re fi ghters south on numerous occasions to assist with campaign fi res,” Mr Atkins said.

“Roxby Downs’ Brigade contrib-uted 420 man hours to a fi re near Kimba, and our largest commit-ment of 2500 plus hours to the fi re at Bangor, near Port Pirie.”

Mr Atkins said nature was the most common cause of a fi re and there were a few things people could do to help prevent them.

“To prevent fi res people at this particular time of the year should check gas cylinders for damage or leaks, check the hose and fi ttings on your barbecue,” he said.

“Clear the area around your property of high grasses and weeds.”

Th e fi re danger season remains unchanged from last season and will run from November 1 until March 31, 2015.

There are currently 33 CFS volunteers as part of the Roxby

Downs Brigade but Mr Atkins said the group was always looking for more.

Not only do the CFS need vol-unteers to put out fi res, but also to man jobs such as radio oper-ators.

For anyone interested in joining, training sessions are held weekly at the CFS headquarters and there will be an open day, to tie in with Bushfi re Action W eek, this Th urs-day from 8:30am – 4pm.

A circuit activity, put together with toy gym equipment, as well as swimming classes and a netball competition on Wednesday mornings have also been introduced along with Traffi c

Time with an aim to freshen things up and attract more people.

“We are trying to change it up, get the par-ent involved and get the kids more active,” Nippy Gym Coordinator Regina Qualmann said.

“It has brought a few people back and I have also seen some new faces.

“Th ere are a some new faces in town at the moment so hopefully by introducing things

like swimming school and netball we can at-tract them.”

Mrs Qualmann said the children were really enjoying the new activities, especially the cir-cuit and Traffi c Time.

“We trialled it (Traffi c Time) last week and it was really popular,” Mrs Qualmann said.

“Th ey get given a little drivers licence and take it in turns of also being the police.

“Th ey all love being the police: with the hat, the vest and the whistle.

“It is also teaching them at the same time. “Th e circuit is also really popular, the kids

always look forward to that.”Last Th ursday Mrs Qualmann and fellow

runner of the Nippy Gym program Beck Cooke had 68 children attend the morning across both session enjoying the chance to take part in Traffi c Time, the circuit and the kindy gym equipment.

Mrs Qualmann said the introduction of new activities had made for a busy term.

Roxby Downs Kindergarten teacher Tanya Parker has been named the 2014

School/Preschool Support staff member of the Year at the SA Public Teaching Awards held in Adelaide recently.

The humble educator said she was overwhelmed when an-nounced as the recipient of the award.

“I did not expect to win the award,” Mrs Parker said.

“It was a little intimidating being surrounded by all those wonderful educators.”

Kindergarten director Adam Christie said Mrs Parker thorough-ly deserved the award.

“I am stoked and just so happy,” Mr Christie said.

“Th is achievement just demon-strates the constant hard work Tanya puts into her role every day.”

Mrs Parker said the award wasn’t just about her. It was a team eff ort, and this award was thanks to all of the staff at the kindergarten.

“It is a team award, I wouldn’t have got it without them – every-one works so hard,” she said.

Amanda Blair was the guest speaker on the night and her mes-sage was while everyone was not a winner these awards were all about raising the profi le of education.

Mr Christie agreed and said Mrs Parker winning this award showed there were good education centres outside the city.

“It doesn’t matter where you are you can always get a good educa-tion for your child,” he said.

The award was not the only thing Mrs Parker picked up on the award night held at the National Wine Centre in Adelaide.

She said she and Mr Christie also picked up some new ideas from other educators from around the state.

“It was a fantastic night, it was

great to talk to a lot of diff erent educators and toss ideas around,” Mrs Parker said.

“It was a really great professional learning experience.

“We have even organised for some of the people we met to come up to visit because there are a lot of people that don’t know about Roxby Downs and especially the fact we have a great kindergarten.”

Mrs Parker also received a pro-fessional development grant which gives her the opportunity to per-sonally choose something that will assist her in her role at the kinder-garten.

But she is still unsure at this point as to what she is going to spend it on, but she hopes to in-volve the whole team.

She has been overwhelmed with the response from the community since she has returned with com-plete strangers walking up to her in the street and passing on their congratulations.

Local Country Fire Service (CFS) fi re fi ghters will receive compensation if they are diag-nosed with certain type of cancers after the

State Government reached an agreement last week.

Th e agreed terms will see current and future vol-unteers receive compensation similar to that of the Metropolitan Fire Service (MFS).

“I think it is really pleasing the Government has recognised the South Australian CFS and all the work they do to protect their communities,” CFS Region 4 Regional Commander Bluey Devine told Th e Monitor.

“It is very pleasing that every CFS volunteer will now be protected.”

Th e new scheme will provide likely legislation cov-erage for operational CFS volunteers registered as active members from July 1, 2013 onwards.

Th is will remain in place for 10 years after a CFS volunteer ceases operational activity.

Th e incident threshold will also be removed, mean-ing CFS volunteers will no longer be required to at-

tend 175 incidents over a fi ve year period to qualify.Th e battle for compensation for CFS workers has

been raging for two years with the Greens pushing to get similar allowances to that of the MFS who already receive compensation if they are diagnosed with par-ticular types of cancer.

Greens spokesperson Tammy Franks MC said she was excited the State Government had agreed to these terms and CFS volunteers would receive the compen-sation they deserved.

“Today (Monday, October 20) we celebrate a victory for CFS volunteers who put their lives on the line for our state should they contract one of the 12 scheduled fi refi ghting related cancers,” she said.

“Th is victory is due to the tireless eff orts of the CFS Volunteers Association as well as individuals such as Neal Smith, a former CFS fi refi ghter from Volunteer Firefi ghters and Cancer Risk Group and Firefi ghter Cancer Foundation Australia.”

Th e Roxby Downs CFS unit currently has 44 mem-bers, including cadets, while Andamooka has 25.

Two Coober Pedy arts projects will share in $40,000 worth of grants as part of this year’s

Regional Arts Fund Grants.

Minister for the Arts, Senator the Hon George Brandis QC, has an-nounced that $159,986 from the Aus-tralian Government’s Regional Arts Fund will support 15 new projects across regional South Australia.

Ananguku Arts and Culture Ab-original Corporation will be given $20,000 to enable senior artists from the Hermannsburg School of Painting to mentor local Indigenous artists in a two week landscape painting work-shop culminating in an exhibition pre-sented by Ananguku Arts.

The Coober Pedy Multicultural Community Forum Incorporated will also be awarded $20,000 toward the “Songbird the Magpie” project which will see residents help create an infl at-able magpie.

Both projects will be completed as part of Coober Pedy’s centenary cele-brations in 2015.

Th e Coober Pedy grants are part of nearly $160,000 awarded to various groups across the State.

Th e successful projects, which com-mence after January 1, 2015, cover a wide range of arts practices from per-formance arts, dance, mosaics, pub-lic art, photography, as well as pro-fessional development opportunities for artists.

“Th e Australian Government’s Au-gust 2014 Regional Arts Fund has ensured that many talented region-al South Australians are now able to build on their artistic ambitions and establish themselves as working art-ists. Th ese grants not only benefi t the artist but give them the chance to en-

rich the cultural and artistic aspects of their communities,” Country Arts SA Chief Executive Offi cer, Mr Steve Saff ell said.

Th e applications received were pre-dominantly from the outer regions and remote regions of regional South Australia, with seven applications re-ceived from fi rst-time applicants.

Four of the projects provide men-toring opportunities for up skilling regional artists. Six projects target young people as the main benefi ciar-ies.

Th e Regional Arts Fund is an Aus-tralian Government program that supports sustainable cultural develop-ment in communities across regional and remote Australia.

Th e funding is targeted at activi-ties that will have long term cultural, economic and social benefi ts for in-dividuals and communities through the development of partnerships and cultural networks, by providing art-ists with professional development and employment opportunities, and by supporting arts and community de-velopment projects that provide local communities with the opportunity to participate in, and access cultural activities.

Th e Regional Arts Fund has an em-phasis on youth, disadvantaged, re-mote and Indigenous communities. Country Arts SA delivers the program in South Australia on behalf of the Australian Government.

Th e next funding round closes on March 15, 2015 for projects that com-mence after July 1, 2015. More infor-mation about the Regional Arts Fund is available from Country Arts SA on 08 8444 0400 or visit www.countr-yarts.org.au.

Applications for the 2015 round of the Country Health SA scholarship

program have opened.

Country Health SA Director of Workforce Patrick Smith said the scholarships support the studies of country students who have chosen to work in health related fi elds in regional areas.

“The undergraduate schol-arships aim to assist regional communities by encouraging more country students to con-sider pursuing health careers in regional South Australia,” Mr Smith said.

“Undergraduate scholarships are off ered to full time students who are currently studying or about to start an undergrad-uate degree at university in a fi eld where there is an identifi ed workforce need.

“After graduation, recipients are required to work in a coun-try health service for a term equal to the duration of the scholarship funding awarded.

“Our experience is that once graduates have had the oppor-tunity to work in our coun-try health services, they often choose to stay on.

“It can also be a wonderful way to support people from country areas who want to re-turn to their home towns fol-lowing city-based tertiary study.

“In 2014 undergraduate scholarships were awarded to fi fteen students from regional SA, as well as eight postgraduate scholarships for ongoing coun-try-based health employees.

“Health Advisory Councils were invited to provide local knowledge to the selection panel to help in the decision making process and HACs will be hold-ing presentation ceremonies in

their regions to honour students who have been successful.

“We are seeing more people choosing Country Health SA as an employer of choice and these scholarships are another way that we are attracting people to live and work in the country.”

Applications for the 2015 scholarship intake opened on-October 2011, 14 and will close on November 21, with anyone interested encouraged to apply.

Former Neighbours star Geoff Paine will be bringing his new stage show Unpack Th is!

To Roxby Downs on Wednesday, November 12.

Mr Paine said working on a stage show was a lot diff erent to working on television but he enjoyed them both equally.

“A TV show takes so long to come together ... going through the whole script and getting that delayed re-sponse, whereas on stage you get in-stant feedback,” he said.

“You also don’t have as broader au-dience watching a stage show which I like.

“But sometimes it helps, doing a television show, if you don’t do some-thing right you can always do a take two, which is a good thing.”

Th is will be Mr Paine’s fi rst visit to Roxby and he said he was looking for-ward to exploring the town as well as some of the other rural town he will be visiting along the shows tour.

He described the show as entertain-ing and funny as it pokes fun at a past experience of his.

“It is just really a few men telling stories with a funny side,” he said.

“It is moving but it is high comedy – engaging, enjoyable and light.

“Th e audience is made to feel a part of the workshop.”

Th e story looks at Mr Paine’s ex-perience having to go through Anger Management workshops and his ex-periences he had while there.

“It does show how stupid I felt and people come up to me after the show and say “the same thing has happened to me” or “I know how you feel”,” Mr Paine said.

Th e show will be held on Wednes-day, November 12 at 7:30pm in the Roxby Cultural Centre.

Tickets are on s ale now at the Visi-tor Information Centre for $25 or $22 each if you book in groups of six or more.

A fter months of planning and fundraising Relay for Life is fi nally here.

Relay for Life will be held this Saturday at the Roxby Downs School Oval with the Opening Cere-mony kicking off proceedings at 2pm.

“We are very excited. It is good to see all the plan-ning we have done come together,” Roxby Downs Re-lay for Life Committee Chairperson Neil Pfeiff er said.

“All the teams have done really well with their fund-raising and there are still some fundraising money coming in and some donations from businesses.”

So far 11 teams have entered and will take part in the 19 hour relay but there is still time to enter a team or be a part of another team.

Mr Pfeiff er encouraged anyone in the community not taking part to come down and take part in the opening ceremony or the candle lighting ceremony

that will take place at dusk to remember all those who have lost their battle with cancer.

Prizes will be awarded to the team that has raised the most funds and the team that has the best camp.

Talent shows and games will be run throughout the night as well as a raffl e.

Funds raised from the event will contribute to Can-cer Council SA’s research, prevention and support services.

#R4Lroxbydowns will be the offi cial hashtag of the night with people encouraged to take pictures and use the hashtag to make it easier for people to fi nd the Relay for Life photos.

“Hashtags are a great way to link the memories and experiences of all sorts of diff erent people that will be engaged in Relay this year,” Relay for Life Roxby Downs Media Liaison Millie Th omas said.

“Th e fact that relayers from all over the world can share in our little piece of the pie is really exciting.”

Hashtags can be used with photos or videos on Instagram, Facebook or Twitter.

Relay the message – it’s here!

Survivors and Carers walked the fi rst lap for Relay for Life before everyone joined at the event in 2012.

Support for Not for Profi ts

Dear Sir/Madam,I am writing on behalf of Community

Council for Australia – which advocates for 600,000 not-for-profi ts and charities across Australian communities.

Without doubt not-for-profi ts in your com-munity are a critical part of the local economy and I specifi cally write to thank and congrat-ulate your not-for-profi ts for their amazing and tireless work. We need to be hearing more about the great work so many of these organisations do around Australia.

Many readers may not be aware Australia’s not-for-profi t sector has become a huge force to be reckoned with. It deserves more help and support.

Our not-for-profit sector now employs eight per cent of Australia’s entire workforce. It is nearly twice as big as Australia’s agricul-ture industry. It contributes an incredible $54.8 billion to the nation’s GDP. 36 per cent of our adult population – 5.6 million people volunteer in the sector.

We need more “new money” in the sec-tor. We need more people giving the sector a helping hand.

Not-for-profi t groups also need to recog-nise that they do have real economic power. It is estimated the charity sector now has over $175 billion in assets.

One good example of how this economic power can be used is Community 21, a group of 20 charities that recognised they all used banks, all had some assets and wanted their assets used to support communities rather than just making money for business.

Th rough Community Sector Banking they now not only do their banking through their own banking service, but use their assets to support other not-for-profi ts. Some of the not-for-profi ts that are a driving force behind Community 21 include Oxfam, Jobs Austral-ia, Scope, ACOSS and Ozchild. As Commu-nity Sector Banking has shown, working to-gether we can create new opportunities for our sector.

Not-for-profi ts ought to have a bigger say in their future. Th ey build communities and make local economies stronger.

Th ey are not driven by “the bottom line”. Th ey are driven by passion and purpose. We salute that and thank your not-for-profi ts for their powerful work.

Yours sincerely,David Crosbie,

Chief Executive Offi cer,Community Council for Australia.

News in briefNews in briefSkin cancer rate concerns

for rural workers Skin cancer tests conducted on workers

in rural and remote areas of Australia show those employed in the mining, utilities and local council sectors have melanoma rates up to 42 times higher than the national in-cidence.

Tests conducted by the organisation Skin Patrol, show that in the past 24 months:

• 36 of the more than 2500 local council workers tested had melanoma, a rate of 1.5 per cent which is 42 times higher than the national incidence (.036 per cent)

• 102 of more than 11,000 mining sector workers had melanomas, a rate of .85 per cent, 23 times higher than the national in-cidence

• 38 of more than 4000 utilities workers had melanoma, a rate 24 times higher than the national incidence.

Industry experts also found that one in every 22 local council and mining workers had some form of skin cancer, while one in every 28 workers in the utilities sectors were aff ected.

Snapper closure starts November 1

Fishers are reminded the statewide clo-sure for Snapper fi shing in South Australia will begin at midday on Saturday, November 1 2014.

Th e closure will run from 12 noon on Sat-urday, November 1 through to 12 noon on Monday, December 15 for all fi shing sectors. All fi shers are prohibited from targeting and taking snapper during this period.

Th e annual closure is an important fi sher-ies management measure in place to protect South Australian Snapper stocks during a critical reproductive period.

In recent years, stock assessments for

Snapper have shown that the level of fi shing pressure in Spencer Gulf is too high, with the stock classifi ed as ‘transitional depleting’.

While Snapper stocks in Gulf St Vincent are classifi ed as ‘sustainable’, ongoing man-agement is required to ensure the long term health of the fi shery.

PIRSA Director of Fisheries and Aqua-culture Policy, Sean Sloan, said the annual closure was vital to protect the State’s Snap-per fi shery.

“Snapper is a South Australian species prized by all fishing sectors and brings economic, social and tourism benefi ts to a number of coastal fi shing communities,” said Mr Sloan.

“The annual closure was extended by 15 days in 2013 to increase protection for spawning aggregations from disturbance caused by fi shing.

“Th e closure extension commenced for the commercial industry in 2012 and for recreational and charter boat fi shers in 2013.

E ver heard of a Ka Huna massage? No? Well Daisy at Roxby Downs Massage Th erapy off ers that plus

many more types of massages.

Having studied, and worked in Bris-bane for four years Ms Woodhouse de-cided to move closer to her family last February and bring her massaging ex-pertise with her.

“I like it better here, I know more peo-ple and I feel safer letting people into my house,” Ms Woodhouse said.

“It (running her own business) is awe-some, I love it.

“Th ere is a little extra washing up and behind the scenes stuff but it (the job) is really good.”

Not only does Ms Woodhouse off er Ka Huna massages, which for those of you wondering is a fl owing; whole body massage that involves long strokes and massaging to the beat of music, she also off ers remedial, deep tissue, relaxation,

hot stone and Th ai massage. While she enjoys all of them her fa-

vourite is the Ka Huna and she is also excited about adding another type of therapy to her repertoire in the coming weeks.

“I am just about to fi nish a course in dry needling so I will be able to off er that in a few weeks,” Ms Woodhouse said.

Ms Woodhouse said she is always looking at ways to expand and add to her already long list of massage therapies.

“I am liking how things are going,” she said.

“I want to do a lot more courses though, gain some more knowledge.

“Like there are seven levels of the Ka Huna and I am signed up to do level three in December.

“I will be adding dry needling to my services in a few weeks so I just want to keep expanding.”

Most of the courses that she partakes in are away from Roxby Downs but her

fl exible hours, due to running her own business, allow her to attend all these courses.

To make things even more exciting she loves travelling and got the chance to go to Th ailand recently for fi ve weeks for a Th ai massage course.

Ms Woodhouse said she has her reg-ular customers but said there was also a constant fl ow of new ones as well.

Roxby Downs Massage Therapy is open from 9am – 8:30pm Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays while she is also available for Ka Huna massages from 1pm – 8pm Tuesdays and Th ursdays.

Health fund rebate, HICAPS and EFT-POS are accepted and gift vouchers can also be purchased.

For more information, or to make a booking contact Daisy on 0481 286 789 or visit www.roxbydownsmassagether-apy.com.

F rom what started off as a simple home based business the Yor Health

range that is being sold by Fiona Hooper with the help of Elyshiah McCarthy has grown signifi cantly in the last few months.

The original plan was to sell digestive supplements to compliment her Osteopathy practice whilst on maternity leave.

“I originally started selling the supplements to patients in January and then a few months later Elyshiah jumped

on board and we decided we wanted to participate in the company’s 8 week challenge so we thought we’d ask friends to join us,” Mrs Hooper said.

Mrs Hooper and Ms Mc-Carthy said the program is not just about weight loss, it’s about health and fi tness and not doing it alone - it is as much about meeting new people and surrounding your-self with likeminded people.

“We have just fi nished our fi rst round and were blown away by the results,” Mrs Hooper said.

“Not only was there weight loss, we were also seeing improvements in digestive health and overall wellbeing.

“Some had noticed signif-icant improvements in their refl ux, bloating and energy levels.

“People were sleeping bet-ter and fi nding even their hair, skin and nails were healthier.”

“Numbers have jumped from 8 participants to over 50 in the second round and we now have a great team of reps too.”

A support group has been formed to allow everyone in the challenge to offer each other nutritional and fi tness tips.

Ms McCarthy said people posted in the group if they were going for a run and others would go with them

or send them a message of support.

“Th e support good is good, there is no way some of the people involved would have done it (the challenge) if it wasn’t for the group encour-aging each other,” she said.

“It is for all ages and fi tness levels, male and female.

“Th ere were 30 people that turned out to the fi tness test last week and everyone was doing it together having a chat about ways they want to im-prove, the vibe was perfect.”

The challenge simply in-volves enrolling as a Yor Health customer, purchasing the supplements and entering online.

Th e fi tness testing and fi t-ness/running groups are com-plementary and are an essen-tial component to the holistic approach to optimal health.

Th e Yor Health range of-fers probiotics, digestive en-zymes, supergreens, muscle repair capsules, fi bre, natural energy drink, multivitamins, a super slim product and protein powder/meal replace-ment.

Th e company believes that nothing beats eating raw, organic foods however with the majority of food today is processed, over cooked and

lacking the same nutritional value we once had years ago.

Th ese supplements bridge that gap to help us eff ective-ly breakdown our foods and absorb what nutrients we can and supplement what we are not able to ascertain from our food. You are not what you eat but what you absorb!

If you would like to know more information about the Yor Health product range or are interested in the challenge please call or message Fiona on 0419 020 664 or email [email protected].

Why not try a Ka Huna!?

Enjoying the Andamooka

Markets were...


The fi rst Andamooka Markets in a number of years has been labelled an “absolute

success” by the Andamooka Entertainment Committee.

It is estimated more than 150 people attended the markets to see the 25 stalls on display with the town hall being a hive of activity.

“Despite the heat we had a good turn out,” Entertainment Commit-tee Secretary Kym Rowett said.

“Th e air conditioner was on, the splash pad was open and there were kids running around everywhere- it was great.”

Miss Rowett said all the feedback they received from the stall hold-ers had also been positive and they were already looking to their next

market day, which is likely to be ear-ly December, and possibly to more market days next year.

“Absolutely (I could see the mar-ket days continuing next year), but I don’t think they would be every month,” Miss Rowett said.

“It is a small town and we don’t want to exhaust all our options.

“We might have them quarterly or bi-monthly but we have a com-mittee meeting on Th ursday so we will go through it then.”

Th e time of the event will be un-der review, with some feedback re-ceived about the markets being held during the hottest part of the day.

Miss Rowett said the committee will review the time, and that the initial timeslot was chosen so the markets would not clash with the opening hours of the Andamooka Op Shop.

While all the money from the

stalls went to the stallholders, the stallholder cost of $5 will be put in a kitty and used for community projects.

Miss Rowett said a proposed list of projects included funding Anda-mooka reunion celebrations next year, or putting money towards holding an Easter or Christmas show next year.

Th ose ideas were yet to be de-cided.

Miss Rowett said the day was made possible thanks to her fellow committee members: Lauren Black-more (chairperson), Anne Legg (Treasurer), Ashleigh Legg, Bec Hanold, Renee Smirnios and Adele Smirnios (committee members).

“A huge thanks also to all the stall holders and everyone that came out,” Miss Rowett said.

“W e will definitely be doing it again.”

Andamooka will hold an All Souls Day event at the Andamooka Cemetery this

Sunday (November 2) to remember all those lost.

You don’t need to go to pay respect to a relative or a friend, anyone is welcome to come along to pay their

respects, light a candle and share a drink and a chat with others.

Th e event, which has been running for 15 years, begins at dusk, around 8pm, with people encouraged to bring a chair and a drin k and help light candles to remember those souls who have been lost.

SERVICE SAWASTE MANAGEMENTCOUNCIL OFFICE LIBRARY

Roxby Downs could possibly welcome up to 90 babies this year, but with all these

bundles of joy come other bun-dles of a diff erent kind. Bundles of nappies.

Every child wearing disposable nappies will contribute one to two tonnes of waste to landfill over their lifetime, and those disposable nappies are thought to take around 500 years to break down.

Nappy ChoicesTh ere are many forms of nappies

available on the market however

the most popular option remains the disposable nappy.

While there are some benefi ts to using disposables, unfortunately the environmental impact is indis-putable – and long running.

• It takes as much energy to pro-duce one disposable as it does to wash one cloth nappy 200 times.

• It takes twice the amount of water to produce one disposable nappy than is used to wash one modern cloth nappy for a year.

• It takes a full cup of crude oil to make the plastic for each dis-posable nappy.

An alternative option to using disposable nappies is modern cloth nappies, which parents are embracing for their cost eff ective-ness as well as their reduced envi-ronmental impact.

Roxby Council is taking it one step further by off ering a free start-er kit of cloth nappies to all babies born in 2014 to local families.

To claim your starter kit, simply bring in your proof of address and written evidence of the birth of your baby to Roxby Council where one of our customer service staff will be pleased to assist.

Anyone aged 12 – 18 years living, working or studying in Roxby Downs is invited to take part in the annual Roxby Downs Youth Survey and have a say on the

important issues for young people today.

Th e survey has been conducted annually by Roxby Council since 2012 and aims to identify both the values and concerns of young people. Th e results have gone on to inform the agenda of Council and community organisations such as the Roxby Downs Community Board.

In 2014 the survey focuses on exploring what young people in our community value, their issues of concern, where they turn to for support, their engagement in community activities, sources of support and their aspirations for the future.

Th e annual Roxby Downs Youth Survey closes on Friday, November 28, 2014.

To fi nd out more, or take part, visit the Roxby Downs web-site at www.roxbydowns.com.

Where to look for possible leaks

That leak may not be as small as you

think, see below to fi nd out how big it is!

Taps and sinks

Kitchen

Bathroom

Laundry

Aroundthe House

Garden

Dripping taps and damaged seals around taps and sinks. A tap that drips approximately two times per second can waste over 25 litres a day.

Water pooling under the dishwasher and fridge (if it is connected to the plumbing). Warped or discoloured cupboards, benchtops or walls.

Toilet cistern continually running - a leaking toilet is the most common leak and can waste up to 260 litres a day. Check by putting food colouring in the cistern. If the colour shows in your toilet bowl without fl ushing, you’ve got a leak.

Cracked, frayed, bulging or wet hoses connecting to the washing machine. Water pooling under the washing machine or laundry tub.

Damp, warped or discoloured walls or fl oorboards. Damp carpets or drips on the side of the hot water system.

Wet patches or areas of grass that are greener than expected. Damp and unstable brick paving or concrete. Outdoor garden taps/hoses, garden reticulation (including sprinklers).

N ational Recycling Week is fast approaching, and to celebrate the Roxby Downs Environment Forum

will be hosting a Clothing Swap at the St. Barbara’s Country Fair on Friday, November 14 from 5pm to 9pm.

Th is event is an opportunity for the women of Roxby Downs to spruce up their wardrobe without breaking the budget.

Whilst purchasing new clothing can be ex-citing and rewarding, the manufacture of new clothing is quite costly to the environment, and a large amount of energy and water is used in the production and transport of new clothing.

Th e amount of resources used can be alarm-ing, with approximately 6000 litres of water and 37.7 kilograms of carbon dioxide required to manufacture just one pair of new jeans!

Exchanging items of clothing during the Clothing Swap will give participants an op-portunity to obtain new clothing for next to nothing, while also helping the environment by using less resources and promote the ben-efi ts of recycling.

Quality items of clothing can be left at drop off boxes at the Roxby Council foyer or the St. Barbara’s School front offi ce from Monday, October 27. A token can be collected for each item of clothing placed in the drop off box.

Th e tokens are then exchanged for new items of clothing at the Clothing Swap event. It is asked that participants contribute a gold coin donation on the night, with all proceeds going to the St. Barbara’s Parents and Friends Committee. For more information please con-tact [email protected].

The Business Forum Executive Steering C o m m i t t e e i s

Andamo oka 10/67 ( Wildman 11, B oul-ton 3/8, Black 2/11, Nelson 2/9) defeated by Roxy Rogues 3/71 (Fisher 34*, Mill 20, Bowden 1/11, Beenham 1/19, Muthukumarana 1/21)

F riday night saw Andamooka take on the Roxby Rogues with the winner to register their fi rst win for the season.

Andamooka skipper James Beenham had the fi rst win for the night winning the toss and electing to bat.

Th e Rogues tight bowling and the inexperience of An-damooka resulted in a low score for the boys in blue, all out for 67 in the 25th over.

Top scorer for Andamooka was Wildman with 11 equal with the extras bowled by the Rogues.

Boulton, Black and Nelson were the pick of the bowlers for Rogues taking three, two and two wickets respectively.

Th e Rogues used eight bowlers with only one of them going for more than 10 runs.

In reply Rogues made light work of the chase passing the score just the three wickets down and in the 16th over.

Fisher top batted through the innings and fi nished on 34 not out and also received support from Mill (20) who fell just before the Rogues passed the score.

Th e three wickets were all shared by the Rogues bowl-ers with Bowden, Beenham and Muthukumara taking a wicket a piece.

Hornridge 7/90 (Rynne 42, Hand 2/10, Langdon 2/13) defeated by Olympic Dam 3/93 (Hand 47*, Hill 21*, Denbesten 3/14)

Saturday night saw the fi rst T20 game of the season with the only two undefeated teams, Olympic Dam and Hornridge, facing off .

Hornridge captain Cam Denbesten won the toss and elected to bat fi rst.

Runs proved hard to come by all throughout Horn-ridge’s innings with tight bowling from all the Olympic Dam bowlers starting from the fi rst over, which was a maiden.

Wickets also fell at regular intervals throughout the innings as Hornridge’s unbeaten run looked to be under threat.

Middle order batsman Rynne put up some resistance with some big hitting to register 42 but he struggled to fi nd the support he needed to help his team post a big score.

Wally Hand and Jacob Langdon were the pick of the bowlers for Olympic Dam taking two wickets each.

Hornridge fi nished their 20 over 7/90 with Olympic Dam needing 91 runs to win.

Hand (47 not out) led the way from the outset with some lusty hitting seeing his team to a comfortable victory in the 15th over only three wickets down.

But it was not all smooth sailing for OD with Hornridge skipper and opening bowler Denbesten rolling through the top order to record fi gures of 3/14 and leaving OD 3/38 at one stage.

But with Hand settled at the crease and being joined by Brendan Hill (21 not out) the two steadied the innings and saw their team across the line and continue their unbeaten run this season.
