Another wet week in Clermont has some farmers and graziers smiling from ear to ear. Like I said its the talking topic of the town. Some are boasting how much they got and the sight of some folks trying to outdo each other is great. Some have still missed out and lets all pray that everybody gets something.
Low level flooding on some of the roads in the area has been a danger to some drivers. If it is flooded, forget it. I know some people go through it all the time but it is what is under the water that matters. The ramifications and consequences can be devastating from loss of vehicle, life and also insurance companies not paying for losses. So if flooded, FORGET IT.
On the crime front a utility in the hospital carpark was damaged by having the back window broken during the night. The damage was reported to hospital staff but nobody was seen in the vicinity of the vehicle so if anyone has any information about this offence please call crimestoppers 1800 333 000 or the station on 4983 4400. This follows another window being smashed on a vehicle in French Street a fortnight before. I don’t need to tell everyone how much this crime costs so any information would be appreciated. Some items that went missing from the Toll Depot in town have been located in Emerald at a suspects residence. Information was provided to the victim who then alerted Emerald Police where the items have been recovered. A young woman is helping police with the investigation now.
The news on traffic enforcement is also good with no drink drivers detected so far this year in Clermont. With four courtesy buses in town its good to see patrons utilising them instead of risking running the gauntlet. Remember there is no excuse if you get caught, it is your fault. Some people still insist its the police officers fault when they loose their licence and job. Think again!!
Weapons Audits are continuing across the area with the latest round almost completed. If you do get contacted by police it is a simple process of us inspecting your gun safe where the guns are kept to ensure compliance with legislation. This is good for everyone so guns do not get stolen. Every day weapons are reported stolen in Queensland and we all know where they will end up, in the hands of criminals who can’t obtain them legally! If you are purchasing new weapons Graeme Gordon at Jimbaroo Downs does brokering firearms transactions so see him only if you live within 100 kilometres of that property. You can broker at the Police Station but try Graeme first. Please everyone keep vigilant and don’t let those licences expire, check the dates and renew as soon as possible.
Same with drivers licences, check the dates and make sure you check your most recent licence. Had a very embarrassed and apologetic lady come into the station the other day to say she was over a year out of date. When I checked she was fine. She had forgotten she had renewed her licence and was looking at the old one, not the new one. She then complained of getting older and walked out. A short time later she came back in again as her car keys were still sitting on the counter, older age again apparently!
With the kids back at school now parents can take a sigh of relief but please be vigilant on the trips to and from school. Practice good road rules and watch the kids on bicycles and when they are walking. By nature kids are a wandering group and sometimes easily distracted.
That’s it for this week but everyone keep smiling and enjoy the rain, not the muggy weather.
Bye for nowThe Sarge.

I, Stephen Masters would like to thank all the people of Clermont and surrounding areas who have brought their vehicle’s to me to fix over the last 35 years. Time has come for me to hang up the spanners and to start a new career, as Highland Motors is now closing because of the downturn of the economy. I have loved all the years doing mechanical work and also doing call outs for RACQ, where I have meet a lot of people and made a lot of great friends. Big thanks goes out to Luke and Peta for being great business partners for the last 6 years and I wish them all the best for their future careers. Thanks also to all the staff we have had over the years. All the best to the new people that take on the RACQ break-down service. Yours faithfully, SJ Masters

Public Notice
A group of residents from Monash Lodge visited the Clermont Library last week. Those who are regular borrowers loved being able to visit the library and choose their own books.
Library staff usually choose the books for these patrons and they are collected by a Lodge volunteer to deliver them to Monash Lodge.
The residents also enjoyed a singalong to ‘If You’re Happy and You Know It’.
As the bus had to make 2 trips to ferry the residents the last group also settled back and happily listed to me reading them a picture book.
The ‘ressies’ enjoyed the visit and Clermont Library staff are hoping that this can become a monthly event for the Monash Lodge residents.
