The Whitsunday community has once again rallied to help a family in desperate need following the news last week that 40-year-old father Joel Pringle disappeared without a trace from a residence in Cannonvale last Monday.

Every emergency service from the Queensland Police to local SES volunteers have been following every lead in a constant search to find Joel. A Facebook page has also been at the heart of operations with both friends and strangers within the community offering to help by walking bush tracks, checking remote locations and using drones to scan from the skies.

Family appeal for everyone to look for Joel’s ute

Grave Concerns For Missing Man

Concerns for the welfare of Joel Pringle are leading to despair following a 10-day search desperately looking for any sign of the much-loved family man who disappeared from Cannonvale last Monday.

Police have reported that Joel Pringle was last seen around 3pm on Monday, August 19, at Airlie Beach Lagoon.

He was driving a white Holden Crewman ute with metal tray, QLD registration 403KA2.

Neither Joel nor his vehicle have been since despite a massive ground and air search from Emergency Services and a sea of dedicated volunteers who have offered their support.

No cash has been withdrawn from Joel’s bank account since his disappearance and the last ‘ping’ on Joel’s phone was at 6am near the Conway Range the day after he disappeared.

Queensland Police Services (QPS) has confirmed that Joel’s boat is not missing which has led most search efforts to be confined to land.

A search through video footage has also added to the belief that Joel has not left the region and remains within the Whitsundays.

This information has led to concerted search efforts along remote bush tracks and mountain-biking trails that Joel and his partner Eve Houghton used to frequent.

This includes the Conway Trail, Repulse Creek Camp and Whitsundays Great Walk. Also areas such a Cape Gloucester and surrounds.

Other efforts have been focused on the area around Bloomsbury, Midge Point and Laguna Quays where Joel spent some of his childhood as he had recently been searching the area on maps for an unknown reason.

Another possibility suggested by well-meaning people as a possible theory was that Joel could have driven his car off the boat ramp and into the Proserpine River.

If this was the case, it could explain why there is no trace of the vehicle or Joel.

Queensland Police, local SES volunteers and countless community members who reside in the search areas have been scouring dense bushland constantly for the past 10 days.

Thermal drones have also been used to penetrate the heavy forest cover, hoping to find him alive if he had walked into a remote area and suffered from an injury that prevented him from returning.

All these avenues, however, had (at the time of printing this Wednesday afternoon) not led to the discovery of either Joel or his ute.

Natalie Stockdale, the mother of Joel’s partner, reported on Wednesday morning this week that they are not giving up hope and are still continuing to search areas every day.

Joel disappeared just two days before his 40th birthday and is the proud father of a 16-month-old baby he shares with Eve Houghton.

The young family had also been planning to pick up a new puppy in the coming weeks, something Joel is said to have been very excited about.

Natalie said that Joel is known for his outgoing, super friendly and sociable personality. He has a great sense of humour and is both smart and witty. He is also creative and loved drawing and his design work.

“People are drawn to him, he has a clever way with words and a great sense of humour,” she shared.

Joel’s disappearance is considered out of character and his family hold hope that he may be found alive.

They are also extremely grateful for all the support offered by the community.

“On behalf of Eve and her family, I'd like to thank the whole community for its support,” expressed Natalie.

“The ground Police, Water Police, SES, Council, volunteer searchers, individuals and businesses kindly offering their skills and services to help us find Joel.

“We are humbled by your love and support.”

I am excited to take my turn in the hot seat this week and it’s wonderful to say hello to you all!

For those that haven’t met me yet, my name is Daniel and I have been a cadet journalist at Whitsunday Life Newspaper for almost six months now.

I can’t believe how quick the time has flown by!

I am loving the role, but I have to admit, I do get home-sick from time to time, especially when I watched my home-town rugby team win the Grand Final last weekend (Go Brighton!)

But more than that, it is of course connection to family I miss most. That’s one of the reasons I have been particularly impacted (as I am sure many of you have) by the devastating news that a young Whitsunday father has gone missing.

At the time of writing this Editor’s note, Joel Pringle is still missing and everyone here at the Whitsunday Life team, are praying he is found soon.

After moving to this region almost six months ago I have always been blown away by the love this community offer to anyone who needs it, and the outpouring of support for Joel and his family has been incredible to witness.

From people using drones to fly over bushland to individuals spending hours walking along remote tracks – the community effort is real.

Seeing this strong connection we all have here in the Whitsundays makes me proud to call this region home and it is a great place to begin my professional career.

I am looking forward to showing my good friend Liam around this week when he arrives for a visit and I also look forward to welcoming my sister and her partner up shortly afterwards.

If you see us around make sure you say hi!

One person has died after a cabin caught alight on Star Drive in Sugarloaf on Wednesday 21st August.
The fatal fire is said to have started just after 7pm when emergency services were called due to reports of a “large blaze.”
Upon arrival at the scene emergency services stated that the “cabin was located fully engulfed.”
Despite all efforts, a person in the property at the time died at the scene.
Nearby residents were evacuated as a precaution; however, no one else was physically injured.
Investigations into the fire's cause are still underway, with the property remaining a crime scene as officers work to identify the occupant.

Seven-year-old wildlife advocate Theo Imhoff is making a difference through his work with Fauna Rescue Whitsundays, a non-profit voluntary group that rehabilitates sick, injured, and orphaned native wildlife.
Registered carer for Fauna Rescue Whitsundays, Erica Imhoff, and her son Theo, who recently returned to the region, wanted to contribute to the well-being of local wildlife.
Since joining Fauna Rescue Whitsundays, Theo has helped care for native animals such as possums, Melomys, bandicoots to name a few, and helps with feeding and holding the animals for warmth.
“If we're not holding the animals, we have to prepare a heat pad for them or a hot water bottle, but Theo would just prefer to hold them and keep them on him while he's on the sofa, or even while doing homework,” Erica explained.
Erica mentioned how Theo has also been into school to show the rescued animals to his year 2 classmates:
“Theo enjoys sharing how we can help our native animals and how important they are to the ecosystem.”
Theo recently received a Certificate of Recognition for being a ‘Wildlife Warrior’ from his school and both Fauna Rescue Whitsundays and his parents are extremely proud of his involvement.
“He's such a caring, sensitive soul, and, yeah, we're so proud of that,” Erica added.
Theo feels upset whenever he hears negativity about native animals, particularly when people refer to possums as pests and struggles to understand why others don't share his love for these animals.
“He cares so deeply for the animals and understands their place in in our community, and that they were here long before us,” Erica stated.
Great job, Theo! We can't wait to see you following in David Attenborough's footsteps!

Over 100 people attended the Thanks Doc event which was held in Bowen last Saturday and dedicated to showing gratitude towards local doctors, giving them recognition they truly deserve.

Seven doctors were recognised on the night and awarded with a bottle of locally produced Agave spirit to celebrate the long-anticipated moment.

Stephen Darwin chaired the evening and began by commending the local doctors.

“The medical profession is one where no matter what you do, you effect people’s lives in some way, which in turn creates an enormous responsibility that is probably very much underrated,” he said.

“I come from the newspaper industry, and like most other professions if we made a blunder we could apologise, replace, or rebuild, but in your profession those options don’t exist which make you the extra special people you are.

“All I can say is the Bowen community is very lucky to have had such a great group of doctors who have always remained loyal to their patients and more so to our whole community making Bowen a great place to live, work and play.

“To our doctors here tonight and the families of those who aren’t, we hope that by the end of tonight you all leave with a feeling that all your efforts haven’t gone unnoticed and you know this community feel blessed and honoured to have been served by such dedicated professionals as yourselves.”

Rotary Club of Bowen Club President Helen Woodhouse said it was a wonderful evening.

“It was really great to see the acknowledgement of the hard work that those doctors have done over the years,” said Helen.

Federal Member for Dawson Andrew Willcox MP was also in attendance and he gave a heart-warming speech commending the local Doctors, many of whom he said had looked after him and his family over the course of their lives.

A new expanded seagrass nursery
has been unveiled in Airlie Beach
which will support the enhancement
of degraded seagrass meadows,
helping to build their resilience against the
increasing impacts of climate change.
CMERC Director, Professor Emma Jackson,
said the new expanded nursery, which
is part of the Coastal Marine Ecosystem
Research Centre, would play a crucial role
in seagrass restoration in the region.
“Seeds collected from nurseries are used
to re-seed damaged or fragmented meadows,
helping to improve their overall condition
and resilience,” Professor Jackson
explained.
“This upscaled initiative which is hosted
by the Coral Sea Marina Resort in Airlie
Beach builds upon the success of the pilot
nursery, which demonstrated outstanding
seagrass growth and serves as a model for
other areas,” she said.
“The new nursery is three times larger
than the pilot nursery and will enhance
our capacity for seagrass restoration, but
also have more accessibility for local community,
schools and tourists to visit and
learn about this important habitat.”
The project is working with Traditional
Owners as custodians of Land and Sea
Country to deliver restoration activities
and build capacity. As part of the project,
CQUniversity has employed two local Traditional
Owners to maintain the nursery
and safeguard the seagrass.
“This collaboration underscores our commitment
to integrating traditional knowledge
with scientific practices. Community
members can also volunteer to help collect
seagrass flowers, with multiple events held
each year.”
The nursery is part of the Great Barrier
Reef Foundation’s Reef Islands Initiative
Whitsunday Seagrass restoration Project
and is a partnership with the Great Barrier
Reef Foundation, CQUniversity, Reef
Catchments, the Coral Sea Marina Resort
and Ngaro and Gia Traditional Owners.
Great Barrier Reef Foundation’s Reef Islands
Initiative Senior Program Manager
Clarissa Elakis said the importance of seagrass
to the Great Barrier Reef could not
be overstated.
“The Pioneer Bay seagrass meadows are
an important nursery and food source
for endangered species like the turtle and
dugong and help filter pollutants like fine
sediment and nutrients from the water.
But they also have another critical job –
mitigating climate change by storing carbon.
“However, as the climate continues to
change, the Reef ’s seagrass meadows are
struggling to recover from increasingly
severe and frequent cyclones like Cyclone
Ului and Cyclone Debbie which severely
impacted the region’s seagrass meadows in
2010 and 2017.
“The new expanded seagrass nursery will
give local seagrass meadows an additional
boost toward recovery.”
Professor Jackson said the increasing impact
of climate change and water quality
had been felt by seagrass meadows worldwide.
“Initiatives such as this play an important
role in building the health and resilience
of these important marine environments.”
The Reef Islands Initiative is supported by
funding from Lendlease, the Australian
Government’s Reef Trust, the Queensland
Government and the Fitzgerald Family
Foundation, and locally coordinated by
Reef Catchments.

A recent article published by Whitsunday Life Newspaper and written by the Proserpine Museum set in motion a remarkable story of connection.

It revealed that a current Proserpine Hospital obstetrician is in-fact the grand-daughter of the first baby born at the facility 100 years ago.

The connection only became apparent when Dr Kyren (Ky) Baxendell was reading the article about the history of maternity care in the Proserpine region and noticed the maternity ward’s official opening date of 12 July 1924.

This was just one day prior to the birth of her maternal grandmother Joyce Alice Nicholas.

“My grandmother was always super proud of being born at Proserpine Hospital on 13 July 1924,” Ky said.

“She loved the fact that I was working here and said ‘you just wouldn’t believe it Ky, I was born there and now you are delivering babies there’. She just loved that.

“Now I really understand why as not everyone was born in a hospital in those days; most births were attended by untrained midwives at home.”

The first hospital maternity ward was an extension of the original Proserpine Hospital built in 1911 on the riverbank opposite the Junior Sporting Complex on Crystalbrook Road.

Ky’s beloved grandmother Joyce Bagley (nee Nicholas) sadly died in Brisbane in May this year, just two months shy of her 100th birthday.

“We combined Joyce’s 100th birthday celebration and her funeral on her actual birthday on 13 July,” added Ky.

“She had already received her letter from the King prior to passing away two months before her birthday.”

“Whenever patients come into the hospital who are around that vintage I often tell them my grandmother was born here and tell them her name.

“They often don’t remember her, but then remember her playing at the dances or remember her brother Fred Nicholas who lived in Proserpine all his life.”

Although moving to the Whitsundays in 2019, Ky feels very connected to the Proserpine community.

“From a rural doctor perspective, it’s a great hospital in that it’s a non-specialist hospital and I’m a GP obstetrician. It also has a very high birth rate at more than 300 births per year,” she said.

“I was already familiar with the Whitsunday area, we loved the coast and I knew rural doctor jobs here didn’t come up very often.

“I’m not local, but kind of, sort of am really,” she said.

“My family is local and I’m incredibly proud to be delivering babies here where my own grandmother was born.”

In 2023/24, a total of 353,552 people visited our aquatic facilities. Whitsunday Regional Council proudly provides the Airlie Beach Lagoon, three swimming pools and water parks across Proserpine, Bowen, and Collinsville, all free to use. These facilities offer a fantastic, cost-free way to enjoy the water, keep cool, and stay active!

‍

From floods to bushfires to storms and cyclones, the tropical Whitsunday region faces many extremes, so it is good news that Council has expanded our flood camera network with three new cameras in Bowen, enhancing the region’s capacity to monitor and respond to potential flood events.
 
These new installations at Queens Road, Inverdon Road and Soldiers Road will be crucial in providing real-time updates to residents and emergency services, bolstering the community’s safety and preparedness.
 
Our network of flood cameras is strategically located in high-risk areas across the Whitsunday region and will capture images that are refreshed approximately every 15 minutes.
 
The Flood Camera project began as a joint initiative under the Queensland Reconstruction Authority’s Flood Warning Infrastructure Network (FWIN), funded by the Australian and Queensland Governments, and supported by Council.
 
Since its inception, Council has committed to extending this vital network, with these three new cameras representing the latest effort to improve our flood response capabilities.
 
The new installations are a Council-led initiative, designed by our IT department, and were completed at a total cost of approximately $50,000.
 
This innovative, in-house solution builds on the successful trial of the first Council-designed system at Kelsey Creek, providing a more cost-effective alternative to the larger systems installed under the FWINP, which typically cost around $60,000 each.
 
Our growing network of flood cameras is a crucial tool for the community, helping residents and visitors make informed decisions during the wet season.
 
It’s important to remember that any flooded road can be deadly, and the condition of the road surface underneath remains unknown until the waters recede.
 
Regardless of the size of your vehicle, flood waters are dangerous for all. Always have a Plan B and equip yourself with multiple alternative routes to stay safe. Remember, once you enter flood water, you give up control of your vehicle—if it’s flooded, forget it!
 
For the latest road closures and road condition information, we encourage everyone to check Council’s Disaster Dashboard.
 
I’d like to thank the IT team for their hard work on this project and for their ongoing efforts in expanding the flood camera network that ensures the safety and well-being of all residents and visitors to our region during the wet season.

In July, Tourism and Events Queensland kicked off a campaign called ‘Great Things Are Happening Here’, which aims to shine a spotlight on the heroes of the Great Barrier Reef.

The campaign will be run nationwide to share the stories of tourism operators’ incredible conversation initiatives across TV, YouTube, social media and through print partnerships.

The campaign will tell these stories and spread the word that one of the best things that we can do for the reef is to see it, love it and protect it. 

In support of this campaign, Tourism Whitsunday have recently been gathering information from local tourism businesses that are undertaking inspiring projects to create a meaningful difference in the health of the reef to ensure its conservation for future generations.

Some of the conservation projects include coral nurturing programs, marine debris clean-up initiatives, Crown of Thorn control projects, seagrass restoration projects and much more. All of which is happening right here on our doorstep. 

If you want to make a difference and support the health and conservation of the reef, one of the best (and most fun) ways to do this is to support the tourism operators that undertake this work, so they can continue to grow these projects and make a difference.

Have a read about some of the conservation work that is happening, look for an Eco Certification qualification and book a trip!

Stuart and Nicole Morris, the managers of Azure Sea Whitsunday Resort, have been named ‘Resident Managers of the Year, Short Stay’ 2024 at the Australian Resident Managers Association (ARAMA) Awards. This distinguished award highlights their exceptional management of one of Australia’s top holiday resorts.
Stuart and Nicole had only been managing the resort for one and a half years after relocating to the region from the Gold Coast, where they operated a business at Pacific Fair as Retailers in paramedical aesthetics and skin care. When they arrived at the resort there were a lot of maintenance issues to address – the two swimming pools were falling apart, and there were glass shards that had to be picked out.
“We conducted a refurbishment of 255,000 litre pools and a spa in six weeks, (according to trades who completed the work) it should take three months!” Stuart stated.
Despite the initial setbacks, Stuart and Nicole managed to maintain strong performance by offering a reduced accommodation rate due to the absence of a pool over that period.
This is just a small example of the quick-thinking and business acumen which has led them to receiving the recognition among their peers at the prestigious awards.
Stuart and Nicole stated that what sets them apart from the rest is that they are, “conscientious individuals,” with a “desire to make a difference.”
The judges of the award stated that whilst it was very difficult to select a winner out of the exceptional candidates, this year's winners (Stuart and Nicole) tick all the boxes.
“They have greatly improved the resort’s facilities from personal efforts, won the appreciation and respect of unit owners... particularly the (Body Corporate) committee members, (and) been integral to the body corporate management.”
“They are a great example of what fresh talent and hard work can produce in this industry.”
Thanks to the vision and expertise of Stuart and Nicole, Azure Sea Whitsunday Resort has blossomed into a beautiful retreat set amidst the lush rainforest of Airlie Beach.
The 30 fully equipped apartments offer breathtaking, panoramic views of the Coral Sea and Hayman Island, providing an unparalleled escape into paradise.
The resort has lift access, secure undercover parking, unlimited Wi-Fi, and a new infinity-edge waterfall swimming pool. Azure is also just a short stroll from the beach, main street shopping and an array of fantastic restaurants.
The dedicated onsite management team is committed to creating a warm and welcoming community experience for all of Azure’s guests.
Nicole mentioned that the resort’s welcome letter features the phrase, "There are no strangers, only friends you haven't met yet,” capturing the warm and inviting atmosphere the resort aims to provide.
Azure Sea is excited to extend a warm invitation to all future guests for an unforgettable stay. You won't want to miss out on the recently refurbished infinity pools, breathtaking views, and enhanced landscapes. The resort's award-winning hosts, Stuart and Nicole, can't wait to welcome you. Check out https://www.azureseawhitsunday.com/ for more information on how to book your stay at Azure Sea Whitsunday Resort.

Stuart and Nicole Morris stand proud with their award
