COUNCILLOR DAVE LAW VISITS MAPLETON

The Mapleton and District Community Association (MADCA) hosted a morning for members of the Mapleton and District community to get together at the Mapleton Bowls Club to set some strategic directions for the next 5 or so years.
The workshop, facilitated by Bea Rogan of the Coalition of Community Boards, worked with the 46 members of the community to explore the future across the 5 important dimensions of community engagement, economic development, environment, infrastructure and planning, as well as the social and cultural dimension.
The community worked in groups and then prioritised the suggestions thus forming the beginning of a strategic plan for Mapleton and District. The information will also be very useful when our community makes submissions to the Sunshine Coast Regional Council’s review of the Blackall Range Local Area Plan in 2022.
The community valued the uniqueness of Mapleton and any future changes to the infrastructure need to recognise the village ambience.
Above: Suggestions made during the morning displayed for comment.

Cattle Egret Cattle Egrets are usually seen stalking about in pasture, accompanying cattle to snap up insects as they are disturbed by the beasts.
They follow other grazing animals, including sheep, horses, goats, alpacas, and in zoos, elephants.
Small, compact white heron with relatively short yellow bill. More frequently recorded in dry habitats than other egrets; rarely gets its feet wet. Cattle egrets breeding colonies are often shared with other species of waterbirds, especially herons, ibis and other egrets.
A relatively small snowy white egret, the Cattle egret is distinguished during breeding season by its orange crown, neck and breast, with similarly tinted long loose neck plumes. Top image. Lower image—non breeding.
Banksia ericifolia x spinulosa 'Giant Candles'
The massive flower spikes up to 40cm long are the outstanding feature of this hybrid. It can grow to around 5 metres if left unpruned.
A very adaptable plant that makes a fantastic medium sized screen as well as a great cut flower.
Birds are attracted to the nectar rich flowers, which are long lasting both on the plant and as cut flowers.
Flowers best in full sun, prefers well drained soils.
Growing successfully on the grey soils of Mapleton.

Edgar Allan Poe (1809 –1849) was an
American writer, poet, editor, and literary
critic. 'Popular works include the
poems “To Helen” (1831), “The
Raven” (1845), and “Annabel Lee” (1849);
the short stories of wickedness and crime
“The Tell-Tale Heart” (1843) and “The Cask

Andrew Barton "Banjo" Paterson (1864 –1941) was an Australian bush poet, journalist and author. He wrote many ballads and poems about Australian life, focusing particularly on the rural and outback areas, including the district around Binalong, New South Wales, where he spent much of his childhood. Paterson's more notable poems include "Clancy of the Overflow" (1889), "The Man from Snowy River" (1890).
There are five books in the Mapleton Community Library collection.

An exciting new programme is being rolled out by the Department of
Tourism, Innovation and Sport with co-investment from Health and Well-
being Queensland and we need your help to spread the good news!
The objective of ActiveKIT is to support innovative solutions within the
Active Industry to increase physical activity opportunities for target co-
horts and contribute to the Industry’s capability and resilience.
ActiveKIT is our new $4.34 million program that will see us work with
startups or SMEs, in addition to traditional industry stakeholders, to trial
and implement innovative products or services targeting two key chal-
lenges:
Challenge 1: Increase physical activity participation of Queens-landers who are insufficiently active; or Challenge 2: Strengthen the capability of organisations within the Active Industry including financial health and workforce capability. Funding of up to $200,000 is available through the program. Innovative solutions can include digital engagement strategies, reducing and minimising operating costs or diversifying revenue streams. We have included a Stakeholder Kit for you to promote ActiveKIT to your networks. In it you will find background information, key dates and social media content to help get the word out. Applicants are invited to present their innovative solutions to the chal-lenges via an online application. Applications will open on Monday 22 March 2021 and close on Monday 19 April 2021. For more information on ActiveKIT, including the program guidelines vis-it https://www.dtis.qld.gov.au/activekit. From the team @ Sport and Recreation Department of Tourism, Innovation and Sport
