SEPTEMBER 2016 PAGE 8 A COMMUNITY BUILDING PROJECT OPINION PIECE MICHAEL WEEKES SAYS Where is the water? In January 2009 “The McNamara Water Plan: Securing our water future” was published by then member for Hervey Bay Andrew McNamara.

We can see little has been done since 2009 about the whole region’s need for water. No Plans. The plans for growing Hervey Bay continue while the danger of running out water in dry conditions is ignored. What about the need to secure and expand irrigation access for farmers?

SEPTEMBER 2016 PAGE 10 A COMMUNITY BUILDING PROJECT Miva Branch QCWA: QCWA Miva Branch has been rather slack when it comes to entering State Competitions this year but the news of a “Bush Poetry Recitation Competi- tion” and “Poetry Composition Con- test” being added to our Contests was greeted with great interest. Two of our members have been elected to positions on the Gympie & South Burnett Division Executive. Katrina van den Brenk has found her- self not only taking on the positions of DVConnect, and Public Speaking & Essay Convenor, but now has an extra role in the new position of Mar- keting & Publicity Officer on the Di- vision Executive - just as she thought things would be quieter as she finish- es her term as Division Secretary. Bev Schloss has been re-elected as Zone 3 Vice President Two motions were passed on to Divi- sion recently for discussion at a State level: one regarding the use of Per- sonal Locator Beacons by rural and other workers in remote areas; and the other a recommendation re. Pub- licity Officers on QCWA Region and State Conference committees. The branch has made donations to the Membership Support Fund at State Office, and to the Fundraiser appeal. Events coming up include Miva’s Spring Fair on 8th October (see flyer) and making slices and cakes for the Munna Creek Music festival.
