Here is a video we took while visiting Tipplers last weekend.
It runs for around 2 minutes but please watch it until the end.

Hello concerned members of Division 3.
As most of you are aware I have spent many years working as a volunteer in our community.
I believe I have done everything possible from this position and as many of you have suggested it’s time to take the next step.
To fully serve the community I am running for the Division 3 Councillor position. This will allow me greater abilities to deliver what the community desperately needs.
The campaign will be hard fought and I have invested everything possible on behalf of my family.
If you are able to assist our campaign and get Division 3 up where it belongs, please donate via the following methods.
Together we can get there, Can’t we!?

Great to catch up with VMR Treasurer Jeff Lind and volunteer Julie-Anne Crossley at their Jacobs Well headquarters.
365 days a year and 24 hours a day a group of dedicated volunteers provide an invaluable service to boaties in need.
They receive very little assistance yet they are always there to help, even in the middle of the night.
On South Stradbroke Island, they have a first aid station and a base that badly needs support. It is hard to imagine that Gold Coast City Council cut their power off in 2012 without notice and then informed them that if they get any noise complaints from the use of a generator, that it would be considered a breach of their lease. This shows just how far out of touch the Gold Coast City Council is with the community. It is time for a change of culture.
They survive with one solar panel that keeps their radios going and provides a meager light in the night. They have not had air conditioning since 2012.
If I am successful in being elected (which I am working very hard at) then the VMR station near Tipplers in Division 3 will get the support it deserves.
We are very lucky to have people like this in our community. It makes me angry to hear reports like this so tomorrow, I will just have to get out of bed even earlier to chase those extra votes that might be needed to get across the line on election day.
