S tage One of the Desert Trade Training Centre (DESTTC) was handed to the Roxby
Downs Area School last Friday with local woodwork classes to fi re up in the new facilities in week two of Term 2.
The $1.95 million development took more than three years to get off the ground, but with the support of BHP Billiton was fi nally approved for funding by the Department of Edu-cation, Employment and Workplace Relations in 2013.
According to Project key stake-holder liaison Tony Holden, the Stage One handover – a brand new woodworks area – will facilitate a couple hundred students a week – in
between four and fi ve classes a day.“What this (the new space) does, is
it allows us to give kids an introduc-tion into basic woodwork and car-pentry and lead them into the senior school into courses like building and construction, civic construction, and those sorts of areas,” Mr Holden told Th e Monitor last week.
“(There’s) a lot more room and it’s a lot safer, the machines are a lot more spread out – a lot more oper-ating room, plus as you can see it’s a modern facility and up to date tech-nology, so it’s a huge improvement.”
A state of the art dust extraction unit will keep the air in the facility clean, and numerous skylights light up the area.
“Th e capacity to remove dust and
keep the area clean in here is greatly improved to what it used to be. It’s very bright in here – the skylights and that all adds to it for sure,” Mr Holden said.
Th e area also has the scope to in-clude electronic data projectors in the space – enabling classes to be taught theory lessons in the area – as well as practical.
The space within the existing TAFE building that was previous-ly used for woodworks is currently being transformed into an area for electro-technology, and will be hand-ed over with the rest of the project by the end of June.
“We’re really excited about it can’t wait to get in here and our techy (teacher Norm Evans) is very keen
to be moving in!” Mr Holden said.Roxby Downs Area School Princi-
pal Steve Bennett said a lot of hard work had gone into the project.
“It’s now getting to the point where the building is literally going to be accessible for kids next term,” he said.

S tudents from Mrs Sally Cormack’s Year 1/2 class vis-
ited the Pie R Squared bakery last Friday as a special end of term Easter treat.
The students were greeted by Lauren and Matt O’Loughin, whose son is also in Mrs Cor-mack’s class. Th ey spoke about the wonders of the bakery – and children decorated their very on hot cross buns and ate them after they were cooked in an industrial sized oven.
Mrs Cormack said she enjoyed involving her class in the community – helping students rec-ognise the people and businesses they so often see down the street.
“We are excited to have the kids from the Area School here with us,” Lauren added.
“They enjoyed deco-rating and eating their own hot cross buns for Easter!”
Th e Monitor would like to wish all of our readers a Happy and Safe Easter this weekend.
Stage one completed!

Roxby Downs and Olympic Dam expe-rienced a blanket power outage last Th ursday with no supply from 10am until
full restoration at 2pm.
Transmission provider Electranet said on Friday they were aware of the outage, and were conducting an investigation as to the cause.
“We really just haven’t got enough information on it and obviously we’d tell our customers fi rst once we get the information.
“It’s just too early in the investigation stage,” a company representative said.
Backup generators kept some areas at the Olym-pic Dam mine site and businesses in town such as BP alive, but many locals had to shut up shop for the duration of the outage.
Th e Roxby Tavern saw the outage as ample op-portunity to off er locals a free sausage sizzle and still (relatively) cold beer.
Roxby Council also advised residents to turn off all electrical appliances at the wall to avoid power spikes and surges. BY MILLIE THOMAS
Local police are asking the public to remove or rectify unregistered or un-roadworthy vehicles from the road or road related areas.
Senior Sergeant Terry Boylan said with residents from every state working in Roxby – often vehicle owners miss seeing letters sent home reminding them to re-register their vehicles.
“Roxby Downs police are concerned about what appears to be unregistered vehicles or un-roadworthy vehicles that appear to be left standing left parked on roads or road related areas and we ask people to either move them or register them or rectify them,” Snr Sgt Terry Boylan told Th e Monitor last week.
Applications for smart phones are available to re-mind vehicle owners to re-register their vehicles be-fore they expire.

One of Roxby Downs’ most abundant verte-brae – the Trilling Frog
has been surfacing in the muddy desert playground in the last week – in huge numbers.
Th e Trilling Frog, Neobatra-chus centralis, normally surface after a large amount of rain in
the desert – so after last week’s 30 odd millimetress of rain-fall it’s not surprising the little critters poked their heads out of the sand.
Th e Trilling Frog grows up to approximately fi ve centimetres long, and typically lives up to 90 centimetres under the ground, according to an Arid Recovery study.
“They protect themselves from dehydration by secreting a substance from their pores
whi ch builds a protective co-coon around their bodies,” an Arid Recovery spokesperson said.
Th e frogs can survive under-ground for years before surfac-ing with the rain.
Possibly surviving for years like this underground, the Trill-ing Frogs will surface with rain.
“Once on the surface they can commonly be found on the edges of clay pans and gilgais, calling out with a trilling noise
to their friends,” the Arid Re-covery spokesperson said.
Acclimatised to typically dry desert conditions, the Trilling Frogs breed quickly – tak-ing advantage of being above ground in normally short peri-ods of wet weather.
As the water begins to dry up, the frogs will once again bury themselves within the soil, pos-sibly waiting years before the next rains come again.

One pathway that has been identified of particular benefi t to the children learning woodworks in the area is a ‘Doorways to
Construction’ course – a more hands on approach to introducing woodworks.
Mr Bennett acknowledged the hard work of Mr Holden, and contribution of BHP Billiton.
“Just (like) to acknowledge the hard work that Tony Holden has put in to manage this. I’m the new site leader so I’ve been able to come here and I guess ad-dress other issues knowing that this is being managed by Tony,” he said.
“I guess the other thing is to acknowledge the enor-mous contribution that BHP (sic) have made to get this place running. Th ey’ve contributed a lot of money to the program and initially when this was put up for feasibility; it was because they came on board that the project really got off the ground.
“If they hadn’t been prepared to put money and resources into this – it may not have gone ahead, so I think we need to acknowledge they’ve had a major role and we really appreciate it too.”
Olympic Dam Asset President Darryl Cuzzubbo recognised the importance of the Trade Training Cen-tre and the range of diff erent options it provides for local students.
“It’s great to see this project developing and pro-viding a safer and better environment for students to learn key trade skills, and explore pathways that are interesting, relevant and engaging,” he said.
“We are pleased to have this opportunity to par-ticipate and make a diff erence to the education op-portunities that are available at Roxby Downs. We’re looking forward to the completion of the project later this year and are confi dent that the facility will provide a range of benefi ts to our students, our community and our region more broadly.” BY MILLIE THOMAS

Police at Roxby Downs are urging their local community to notify police when incidents occur in the region in order to ensure eff ec-
tive investigation of potentially criminal behaviour.
While Facebook is an important engagement tool for communities, it is also an unregulated environ-ment which can lead to the sharing of incorrect, un-truthful, unhelpful or even hurtful information.
From time to time police are notifi ed of social media sites that contain material which talks about criminal off ences, or a community member being the victim of a criminal off ence.
Th is does not constitute the reporting of an off ence to police.
“We would urge anyone who is the victim of a crim-inal off ence to report the mater to police immediately so that offi cers can investigate and identify off enders in a timely manner,” said Senior Sergeant Terry Boylan, the offi cer in charge of Roxby Downs Police Station.

The Department of Defence is currently working to secure a twice weekly visiting health
service – to take place of the current hospital, which is set to be closed at the end of this month.
An article printed in the Gibber Gab-ber recently said, “We are pursuing op-tions for the continuation of a medical facility based on the current arrange-ments of a visiting doctor attending two days a week. Th e service will be available to any person who attends for an appointment.”
The service will not be exclusive to defence personnel, and while ne-gotiations continue to secure the twice-weekly doctor, it is anticipated it will be fi nalised in time for the closure of the hospital.
“Consideration is being given to op-
tions for the location of the facility,” the Gibber Gabber article stated. “Th e use of rooms within the Community Cen-tre are being explored as the favourite location. “Design and funding options are being reviewed with the intention of establishing the new facility as soon as possible. However the service will continue in the Woomera Hospital in the short term until a more suitable fa-cility is operational.”
Th e full ambulance service will con-tinue with delivery of cases to the Rox-by Downs or Port Augusta Hospital as needed.
Upon completion of service negotia-tions and selection of facility locations, the public will be notifi ed through the Gibber Gabber.
Queries are to be directed to Base Support and Strategic Operations Man-ager, Phil Chandler, via email to [email protected] or by phone on (08) 7383 4334.
The crew at the Pink Roadhouse at Oodnadatta found some interesting ways to amuse themselves in the recent
wet weather.
Local Hayley Nunn said the area received 30 millimetres of rain in three days – causing all roads to be closed.
Th e rain fell mainly on Monday, April 7 and closed the main road. Th e Coober Pedy road was briefl y opened in the afternoon but was closed again just a few hours later.
Four cars of travellers were stranded for the week, and were still awaiting travel advice last Friday.
Hayley said the crew got a bit bored, with no customers coming along the track.
Owner Neville Jacob spent his time refu-elling his son’s rain worthy vehicle – a pink canoe – and tying an infl atable raft to the roof of the resident pink Volvo. Th e car doesn’t go – but the thought was there.
Hayley and her family live at nearby Macum-
ba Station about 40 kilometres North East of Oodnadatta. She said the rains were welcome at the 11,000 square kilometre property which usually experiences the wet earlier in the year.
“It’s actually late,” Hayley said.“Normally we have it by January, February
and we thought our chances were over.”“We thought we’re not going to get anything
… we are in for the long haul with the drought, but then it rained.
“It’s not drought breaking but it’s a start.”
The sky opened up right across the Far North with Coober Pedy receiving heavy falls reportedly reaching 115 millimetres in one day, according the ABC Online.
Residents were caught in the deluge with several dug-outs flooded and some above ground homes and businesses also aff ected.
According the Weather Bureau Roxby Downs recorded 20 millimetres last Wednes-day, and a further 10.8 millimetres on Th urs-day.

More people than e v e r b e f o r e are receiving
chemotherapy in the country, with treatment numbers at Country Health SA sites increas-ing across the state.
Health Minister Jack Snelling said there had been a 46 per cent in-crease in the number of chemotherapy treat-ments provided at our chemotherapy units in 2013 (3138) when com-pared to 2012 (2150).
“Undergoing cancer treatment is challenging enough without having to travel for hours to
receive treatment,” Mr Snelling said.
“Through establish-ing new chemotherapy units and enhancing some existing units in country South Australia, more country residents are now able to receive treatment close to home.
“In the past 12 months we ’ve op ene d ne w chemotherapy units in Clare, Victor Harbor, Naracoorte, Wallaroo, Murray Bridge, Port Au-gusta, Mount Barker and Gawler.
“We’ve also enhanced existing services in Kan-garoo Island, Ceduna and
Port Pirie. “The new chemo-
therapy unit in Berri at the Riverland Regional Hospital opened this week and new units in Mt Gambier and Port Lincoln are being built as part of wider hospital redevelopments.
“Construction of the $69 million Regional Cancer Centre in Why-alla, the largest single investment in regional health in South Austral-ia, was also completed in September 2013.”
Regional Development Minister Geoff Brock said this had helped make what is a diffi cult and stressful time easier for country patients and their families.
“We are continuing to see the number of peo-ple treated locally in ru-ral areas increase and we expect this upward trend to continue as patients become more aware of their local chemotherapy services,” Mr Brock said.
“It has been wonderful to see these units come to fruition and truly make a diff erence to the lives of country South Australians.”
“There have been significant increases in chemotherapy treat-ments at Mt Gambier and Whyalla, with 316 chemotherapy treat-ments already occurring at those two sites alone during January and Feb-ruary 2014.
Chemo numbers up in country areas
E lle Yeates from Roxby Downs has seen how valuable a local ambu-lance service is. Now a volunteer
ambulance offi cer herself, she’s encour-aging others to join her.
“Th ey should give it a go,” she said. “It’s probably easier than they think it will be.”
Th is 27-year-old administrative worker has had to dial triple-zero a few times in her life, and she has always been impressed by the ambulance personnel. So it was natural for her to want to give back by becoming a volunteer ambulance offi cer.
“It was because I’ve seen the great work the ambulance service does in the commu-nity and how it impacts people’s lives,” said Ms Yeates.
“I wanted to be part of helping people. It’s a good feeling doing something for someone.”
Volunteering on the ambulance was also an ideal way to meet new people when she moved to Roxby Downs with her partner (a mine worker) a couple of years ago.
“It’s a good social outlet.”Th e remoteness of Roxby Downs is also
what drives her to volunteer for her local ambulance service.
“Especially where we are, in the middle of nowhere, you do rely on having people close by to get to you quickly in an emer-gency. It’s defi nitely important.”
Initially worried she might fi nd the train-ing too challenging, she’s really surprised herself by the skills she has learned and how she can make a big diff erence in an emergency.
“I learned that I should have a lot more confi dence in myself!” she said. “I was con-cerned I couldn’t do it when I started. But
it’s lots of common sense.”Relating to patients who are being trans-
ferred by ambulance to the Royal Flying Doctor Service airstrip was also very re-warding, she said.
“I like doing airport transfers, especially when the patient is alert and you can talk to them.”
Ms Yeates said more volunteer ambu-lance offi cers were needed and encouraged people to fi nd out more and consider ap-plying.
“If they’ve been thinking about it, just give it a go. You never know until you try something!”
SA Ambulance Service is seeking local people to volunteer at Roxby Downs, Mar-la and Coober Pedy. Call 1800 655 306 or visit saambulance.com.au for more infor-mation.

Ever wondered who changes tyres in Roxby Downs? Or perhaps where the best place to eat is on the weekend?
Th e third installation of Th e Monitor’s A Guide to Living in Roxby Downs is aiming once again to give those visiting or living in Roxby Downs exactly those answers.
Created by the team at Th e Monitor – most of whom who have lived locally for up to 10 years – Th e Guide has now become a staple for many individuals, organ-isations and businesses, and a ‘go to’ point to get those essential Roxby contacts.
To be distributed in June this year with every door-to-door edition of Th e Monitor, at the Visitor Informa-tion Centre, Library, Council, RoxFM radio Station and at each of the BHP Billiton Accommodation Villages.
Th e Guide will also form a part of a welcome kit for new residents.
“Th e Guide will initially be distributed with Th e Mon-itor in June 2014 and will have a two year shelf life,” Managing Editor Gail Heritage said.
“It’s a publication that has become the essential part-ner to any individual, family, organisation or business in the town and is an essential resource for locals.”
Th e Monitor Sales Manager Jody Gow Smith said they have used the most up to date information.
“We wanted to be able to supply residents with an up to date business and services guide,” Jody said.
“Support for the guide has streamed through from local businesses to major international contractors – and is really the go-to booklet for locals.
“Th e Monitor uses the latest information to make sure the public can get through to their intended des-tination.”
In a change from previous years, a full copy of the publication will also be available online with a link from Th e Monitor website, and an online A-Z business directory will also be accessible through a link on the website.

D edicated volunteers the Doran family – Christine, Shaun, Leroy and Jayme – have been awarded with the inaugural RoxFM
Perpetual Volunteer of the Year award at their farewell recently.
Th e family, who are relocating to Queensland, have dedicated at least 10 hours a week to the station over the past four years – including radio shows, voice overs, and general helping out.
RoxFM Station Manager Teresa Malcolm said the decision to award the trophy to the Dorans came by a unanimous board decision.
“Th e Doran’s have had the most amazing impact on this radio station – and it’s not been just one member – it’s been the whole family,” Teresa told Th e Monitor last week.
“Shaun – his laughter, voice overs and work with Jayme is just amazing.
“Leroy and Julian (Tregenza – previous Station Manager) are the whole reason I got so involved in the station in the fi rst place. Th eir passion, driv e and attitude that nothing is too hard – it’s just beautiful.”
Leroy said the award ‘wasn’t expected’ and mum Christine said it was a ‘huge honour’.
“What an honour it is to receive an award for vol-unteering – our experience volunteering for RoxFM has given us so much more than we feel we’ve given them,” Christine said recently.
“Th e amazing people that we’ve met, everyone’s so supportive and community radio has really provided us with amazing opportunities.”
“It’s been a blast presenting at RoxFM for four years and living in Roxby for 14 years – it’s been great! A big thank you to Teresa, JT and Kristina for everything they did,” Leroy added.
“(I’ll miss) everything – it’s been a blast. I’ve come in every week to play the latest hits – down to what mum listens to!”

Unconfi rmed sighting of TaranisS atellite imagery of the Woomera Airfi eld
has revealed what Open Source IMINT has suggested could be evidence of the
BAE System’s unmanned aircraft, Taranis being stored locally.
Open Source IMINT said although the im-agery is of relatively low resolution, “measure-ments using Google Earth suggest a wingspan of around nine meters, matching public infor-mation.
“Unfortunately, an accurate measurement of the fuselage is practically impossible with the current imagery quality, especially since the nose appears to be fi tted with a communications array or a pilot tube with AOA indicators, according to handhelds,” the article stated.
When contacted by Th e Monitor, the Austral-ian Defence Force said it was not appropriate to answer questions about the Taranis UCAV.
UK based BAE Systems also declined to con-fi rm or deny the Taranis’ location, stating, “due to ongoing security restrictions, we are still not able to confi rm the location of the trials, their duration or whether or not they have conclud-ed.” BY MILLIE THOMAS

It was the last episode of Tunes in the Dunes last week. Roxby and RoxFM won’t be
the same without the Doran Family, Bon Voyage. Roxby’s loss is Queensland’s gain!
Boo Hoo in the BushIn The Monitor’s editorial on April 10 it
mentioned that the Cultural and Leisure Precinct redevelopment plan were
given in the annual budget and that this was open for public comment last
May. Could The Monitor please expand on this? What details were released and how was the public consultation period
advertised? I have had a look at the budget document and cannot fi nd any
details on the project or any money in the budget for it. Have I missed something?
Please ExplainEditor’s Note: The reference referred to
Council’s Annual Business Plan and Budget being released in May 2013, and should not have implied the actual plans were put up for public submission at that time.
It was meant to only point to the fact the project formed part of that budget,
and to lead readers to the submitted story on Page 11 on the Roxby Council
Page. We will try to clarify further, Please Explain, and thanks for your interest.

Mechanical adviser/sweeper is shared by Jason Kelly and Rick Johnson and other committee members include Chance Owens, Glen Crowhurst, Si-mon Darling, Cheree McDonald.
“It is the largest committee we have had so far which is fantastic,” Mrs Seck-er told Th e Monitor.
The committee have wasted no time getting the word out to the Rox-by Downs community, with their fi rst public appearance being a stall at the upcoming RSPCA fundraiser – held at the bowling club on Sunday May 4.
“We will have more information available and an ‘expressions of inter-est’ form for people to be able to reg-ister their interest to put a team into this year’s event. We are also opening it up for sponsors for the event including ‘Major’ and will be there from 11am-3pm,” Mrs Secker said.
F ar North Police are investigating the theft of a large quantity of opals during a break-in at Coober Pedy on Th ursday night.
Between 8pm on Th ursday, April 10 and 6.30am the following morning, thieves broke into the Comfort Inn Experience Motel at Coober Pedy and stole opal jewellery and merchandise, including the valuable 120 million-year-old ‘Desert Sea Collection’ of opalised fossil sea shells.
Th e thieves are believed to have taken advantage during recent fl ooding. Th e pieces would normally be put in the safe overnight.
Coober Pedy CIB detectives, Port Augusta Crime Scene examiners and Far North Police are conducting the ongoing investigation.
Anyone with information about the break-in or who becomes aware of someone in possession of or trying to sell the opals is urged to contact local police or Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000. You can remain anonymous.
D espite attracting more interest, the 2014 Relay for Life committee is still searching for more vol-
unteers to fi ll positions for this year’s fundraising event.
After holding it’s second committee meeting last Monday, the R4L committee attracted fi ve more members – Secretary Tobi Jane Spanos, Logistics Coordinator Anthony Alcock, Volunteer Coordinator, Marketing and Media Coordinator Millie Th omas and Team Development Coordi-nator Mel Egginton to join Chairperson Neil Pfeiff er.
However, positions are still open within the committee for the biannual event – to be held on Saturday and Sunday, Novem-ber 1 and 2 this year.
Mr Pfeiff er explained coordinators for mission delivery, catering, sponsorship, ceremonies, survivor and entertainment and activities still needed to be fi lled.
“So some of those roles can sort of be combined but if we can get people for
each role, many hands make light work,” Mr Pfeiff er told Th e Monitor last week.
“It would just be great to see more peo-ple at the next meeting.”
Th e R4L committee will also establish a Facebook page, in hopes to eff ectively keep the community informed and help promote event and team fundraising.
“If a team is having a fundraising event or having a fundraiser, we’ll put the infor-mation up on that so it spreads the word to help the teams themselves and also the relay itself,” Mr Pfeiff er said.
“We spoke about it at the meeting; and Facebook is very strong in the communi-ty with the social pages and the groups, so we fi gured that was probably a pretty good method up here.”
Th e next committee meeting will be held on Wednesday, May 7 at 7pm at the Roxby Downs Community Club.

FOOTY FEVER 2014FOOTY FEVER 2014
2014 is shaping up to be a big season of footy for the Far North Football
League (FNFL), starting on the Saturday night of the ANZAC Day long weekend with a grand fi nal rematch between Roxby Districts and Hornridge.
Both teams are looking strong in the pre-season, so the game is sure to be a thriller to start the season off with.
Th ere have been a number of changes too, with an improved yellow card/red card system, and a fi fth spot on the bench specially reserved for a jun-ior. Th is is great news for the
juniors, as they get fi ve extra chances to play A grade footy each week which they didn’t have before.
We’re trialling playing two extra games in Coober Pedy this year, with Andamooka and Olympic Dam travelling twice to Coober Pedy. Th is will be great for the town, and will be capped off with an Indige-nous round in Round 11. Th is is also the inaugural year of the Barry Mitchell Award, which will be given at the end of the season to the club that best typ-ifi es playing in the spirit of the game with fairness and respect
to the umpires, as well as con-tributing to the FNFL and local community.
And we can’t forget about the Miners Cup being played against Broken Hill on the June long weekend. It’s the fi rst time it’s going to be played at Ade-laide Oval, so we’re very keen to win this one on the big stage. I’m very confident our boys won’t let us down. In the end though the footy is nothing without the crowd, so everyone get out to the games and sup-port your teams as much as you can, and let’s make this season a winner.

WRITTEN BY MILLIE THOMAS
R eturning coach Carmelo Crisa said the Coober Pedy Saints will give the upcoming Far North
Football League season their best shot but their success – is up to the players.
Carmelo first coached the Saints in 2010 for two and a half years, and after taking some time off has returned – to fi nish what he started.
“I guess I still hold some passion there for the club and the spot was available,” Carmelo, who has been involved with the club for seven years, told Th e Monitor last week.
Th e team has picked up a couple of re-cruits from new entrants to town, and lost a couple of players – but the basis of the team remains largely unchanged from its 2010 team.
“So overall the team is pretty well the same as when I was coaching – the players that were under my tutorial back then are back again – no more surprises on the recruiting side,” Carmelo said.
“We’ve lost a couple obviously, but they’re easily replaceable.”
Returning to old coaching methods and boosting fi tness will be the Saints’ strengths, but the ever prevalent problem of getting players to games is a resounding threat to the team’s game.
“(Our challenges will be) getting the players on the pitch and hoping that those players that have committed to playing this year will commit right through,” Car-melo said.
“In the past we’ve had issues with play-ers putting their hands up but not rocking up to games, but the advantage we have this years from previous years is we have
six home games, which is a bonus.”Th e two additional home games will
help alleviate fi nancial pressure on both the team, and players, Carmelo said.
He is hoping for strong community sup-port for the games.
“We start off with a home game, so we hope we can get a good turn out from the local supporters and can start the season off with a bang.
“It will be good to have the smell of grass again and get the competitive spirit back up – and also challenge the umpires as I normally do!” he laughed.
“We’ll defi nitely try and put up a good fi ght this season – how far we get only the players will determine that. If they stick to the training regime and stick to the game plan, hopefully we’ll get into the fi nals.”
Saints s uccess up to players
The Andamooka Football Club – the Roos – have a lot of ground to make
up this year, after some disap-pointing results in their 2013 season.
Th e Roos won only four games all year, one against the Roxby Districts Miners in Round One by 31 points, and the other three against Coober Pedy – by mar-gins spanning from one point in Round Seven to 162 in Round 12.
Th e team had eight loses, plus one loss against the Hornridge Magpies in the Semi Final by 83 points. Th eir largest margin of loss was against the Miners in Round 11 by 136 points.
Coach Woody Turner has this year been replaced by clubman Craig Wyatt – who has coached the Roos previously in 2010 and 2011, as well as coaching the league side – The Wedgies in 2012.
2011 saw the Wyatt led Roos fi nish second in the premiership against the Olympic Dam Devils, (16.16-112 to 6.8 – 44) and 2010 saw them place a close third – missing out on playing the grand fi nal by only fi ve points to the Devils (9.11 – 65 to 8.12 – 60).

WRITTEN BY MILLIE THOMAS
The memory of local legend Andrew ‘Harry’ Harrison has washed over the Roxby Downs community recently, with a plethora of tributes following his
passing earlier this year.
Over $15,000 was raised for the family of late local man Andrew ‘Harry’ Harrison at an event held at the Club re-cently.
Th e event for ‘Team Harrison’ was organised by friends of Harry, Amanda Hudson, Leah Mattner and Mel Egginton, and featured an auction and fundraising games – based around an Adelaide Crows and Sydney Swans (Harry’s fa-vourite team) match on television.
Co-organiser Leah said the over 200 person event was a success.
“(It was) really, really great, we were really happy as a whole how it all went,” she told Th e Monitor earlier this week. “It went smoothly, the number of people we had there was awesome. We had more than we thought would turn up and everybody had a really great day, and we’ve had some great feedback from it.”
Leah explained it wasn’t only about raising money for the family, but also providing a chance for closure for some of Harry’s mates.
“It’s not just about raising the money from it, but giving the chance to people to remember Harry, and for those who didn’t get a chance to go to the funeral, so it was a bit of a closure for some people I think,” she said.
Th e highest bid items were a Port Power Guernsey – which sold for $800, and a watch – which was bought and donated back to the auction and bought again – with the total amount paid for it $900.
Attendees wore red and white (Sydney Swans team col-ours) in honour of Harry.
“I think he would have been really humbled by the whole thing and touched,” Leah said. “It’s the kind of thing I think he would have really enjoyed to have been part of and obvi-ously with the Swans winning – he would have wanted that!”
She thanked all those who came on the day, donated and supported the event.

NEWS IN BRIEFNEWS IN BRIEF
The Linking Roxby redevelopment is certainly the centre of many conversations around town at the
moment.
We understand some people may not have had the opportunity to consider the positive points of the development and the benefi ts it brings to the community.
Today as we type this article the com-munity has been subjected to unplanned power outages.
Th is thankfully has not had the im-pact of the much longer power outage in December, but it does highlight our
remoteness and therefore the need to be self-suffi cient and resilient during unex-pected events.
One of the Linking Roxby project fea-tures, is the installation of a generator to power the cultural and leisure centres and provide a safe haven in hot or wet weather for our residents and visitors during power outages.
Th e library and recreation services, like the pools, in the complex will be able to keep operating, providing a refuge from the extremes in weather conditions we can experience - which is good for our community and visitors alike.
The Roxby Water and Roxby Power bills have been issued and payment is due
Friday, May 16, 2014.
Financial aid is available to those experiencing financial difficulty. For information on Government concessions and free fi nancial counselling ser-vices, visit the Government of South Australia’s website, www.sa.gov.au.
Roxby Council encourages all customers to contact them im-mediately on (08) 8671 0010 if they are under fi nancial stress.
A replacement television tower for Roxby Downs is getting closer. The
restoration designs for the replacement tower are cur-rently being done.
Residents are asked to please direct any queries about the current televi-
sion reception to Imparja on 8590 1411.

The Arts and Culture Forum has some fantastic shows lined up for Roxby in 2014. Th e fi rst of many
is a Co-Opera event called Madama Butterfl y.
Every year the Co-Opera visit Roxby with a great show and theme that always brings the town alive. Local singers and musicians will be co-operating with the visiting stars in the opera event which will be held on Saturday, May 10 at 7pm in the Roxby Downs Auditorium.
Madama Butterfl y has remained one of the world’s most loved operas. Based on a short story by John Luther Long the story, purported to be true, is of a young geisha girl who marries an American Naval Officer and is then forsaken by her husband for a preferable bride from his own country. Th e voluptuousness of
Puccini’s music transports the listener to realms of unsurpassed vocal and harmon-ic splendour, bringing to life the optimism of Butterfl y’s love for Pinkerton and then tenderly, anxiously, turning the emotional tide at the end.
Th e Co-opera’s production will be fi lled with beauty and sorrow along with Japa-nese Kabuki theatre, making innovative use of masks, puppets, exotic costumes and stylised general technique to em-phasize the ethnic qualities fundamental to the opera. Th e performances will be sung in the original Italian with English subtitles.
Tickets are available now, prices are - Adults $30, Under 18yrs $10. Pop in to the Visitor Information Centre or call Cherie on 8671 0500, you don’t want to miss this one!
Holidays are something to look forward to. Many Roxby residents travel by
car long distances for family getaways or to visit relatives and friends. Unfortunately this time of year is also one of the worst for car crash fatalities.
Easter time last year in South Australia there was particularly high numbers of these terrible accidents.
Th e message of driving safely and taking extra care during the holiday periods is not a new one. For many decades road safety or-ganisations have campaigned to increase awareness of this issue in the community. Th e image above is of an Australian-wide road safe-ty campaign from 70 years ago. While the car depicted would now be considered a vintage col-lectable as is the poster itself, the message is just as relevant.
From Roxby Road Safe, drive safely this Easter, for the sake of yourself and your loved ones and enjoy the holiday period.
70 year old message still relevant

A regional match between Football Federation South Australia teams – the Comets and Birkalla – will
stimulate more avenues for junior sports in Roxby Downs.
‘Alive and Kicking’ to be held on Saturday, May 17, will feature as one of three rounds in an inaugural regional competition – with the other two rounds to be held in Mount Gambier and Whyalla.
Junior sports – not only junior soccer, is said to be the winner out of the three year regional agreement, with the soccer spectac-ular on May 17 acting as a catalyst for clubs, off ering them the opportunity to showcase through stalls at the event.
Direct benefi ts to junior soccer also means the Leisure Centre sport will be linked to the Comets and Birkalla as a zoned club – providing pathways for budding Beckhams.
“Th e kids actually get to see what it’s like to play at that level and second, these guys that have locked in for three years have become our sister clubs – which could be avenues for sending our kids over there to try out with those teams,” explained junior
soccer coach, Tony D’Arrigo.Tony has been running the junior soccer
program for the past two years – and cur-rently coaches approximately 40 children between four and 16. He said the opportu-nity will also show the children professional competition – and give them a level playing fi eld with more metropolitan clubs.
“Th ey might leave here tomorrow to Ad-elaide or Sydney or Brisbane and be able to
just slot into a club,” Tony explained. “For me that’s really exciting for the kids, and something that’s never been in Roxby.”
Th e Roxby Downs junior soccer program will also now be included in the state jun-ior soccer federation, giving them access to clinics and promotions.
“It will be a stepping stone for our kids. Th at’s what this regional round will do for the kids in Roxby,” Tony said.
Alive and kicking to stimulate youthLEFT: Mikey D’Arrigo makes a strong pass at junior soccer in Roxby Downs recently.The Roxby Downs junior soccer program is now involved in the state junior soccer
federation which in turn may lead to major pathways for Roxby children in sports.

WRITTEN BYMILLIE THOMAS
Roxby Downs locals can often present with a wide range of hobbies and interests. One would think, however,
that it would be unlikely to come across a show-skier in the middle of the desert.
As in a pyramid forming, all smiling, all performing show skier. But, international show-skier Anthony Howie begs to diff er.
While Anthony doesn’t have his home base in Roxby Downs anymore, he lived in Roxby Downs between 1996 and 2005 – even spend-ing a stint as the Far North Football League’s (then known as the Woomera and Districts Football League) President, and winning the Mail Medal in 2003.
During his time spent living in Roxby, (he has come back recently on a fl y-in fl y-out ba-sis), Anthony skied only four times a year – defi nitely not enough to suffi ciently support his extravagant habit.
However, he did get to have a go on Lake
Mary while it was full… “I went out with Ross Orr, and I dropped into Bunnings on the way back and grabbed a plank of wood – and I skied on that!”
Anthony jumped on the skis from the age of four, and by 16 he was competing in barefoot skiing tournaments, ski and relay racing.
It was after years of competing and perform-ing at Riverland CFS Fun Days, the Patawalon-ga River Milk carton Regatta, the Torrens and the Port rivers – plus a stint of ski instructing in Queensland, that Anthony gave skiing a break to focus on his career.
“I would have been 16 to 21 in that peri-od and it was a blast!” he told Th e Monitor recently.
After leaving Roxby Downs and minimalist skiing in 2005 – Anthony ventured to WA… where the water called him back once again.
He joined a barefoot skiing club in Perth and eventually Show Ski WA.
“Even then show skiing in Australia, there was not a lot happening, but what it’s done in the past four years is incredible,” Anthony said
“I guess what I do as far as show skiing, and the reason I came to show skiing is because it’s a team sport, whereas barefooting is very individual – you train very hard and then you compete against your friends’ circle.”
Anthony went on to explain that all show skiers have to look after each other – in order to construct, two, three, four and even fi ve tier high human pyramids.
Th e show skiers build their human forma-tions and are taken through a water course – which is how they accrue their points against other teams. Th e competition has taken An-thony all around the world – including Singa-pore, China and America.
“(I went to) Singapore again three years ago for the Formula 1 race boats half time enter-tainment. I was dressed up and skiing around Singapore with an EH Holden steering wheel!” he laughed.
“Show-skiing is all about your show pass,” Anthony explained. “So you’ve got a course where you’ve got to perform your tricks.
“(Once you fi nish) you come up the beach
with your smiles, waving. It is spot on – you’re judged on your skiing, your skill levels, and the fl ow. A lot of our girls are dancers or gymnas-tics – because it’s a show – makeup, the whole works and jerks!”
Anthony often takes on a more comedic approach with one of his characters being a clown!
Anthony was part of the inaugural Austral-ian national championship winning team in 2011, and the Australian team in the fi rst ever World Championships in America in 2012.
Next up is the Tri Nations competition in China at the end of May.
“China are trying to develop their skiers, so they bring over their competition. So they bring over America and Australia to come over and compete against them,” he explained.
Anthony will be the only South Australian representative in the 32 skier team heading over.
He will then form part of the team heading to the World Championships in Wisconsin, USA mid-September.
