🛑𝗡𝗲𝘄 𝘀𝗶𝗴𝗻𝗮𝗴𝗲 𝘀𝗵𝗼𝘄𝘀 𝗱𝗼𝗴𝘀 𝗻𝗼𝘁 𝗮𝗹𝗹𝗼𝘄𝗲𝗱 𝗮𝗹𝗼𝗻𝗴 𝗯𝗲𝗮𝗰𝗵 𝗶𝗻 𝗖𝗼𝗼𝗹𝘂𝗺 𝘄𝗵𝗲𝗿𝗲 𝘀𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗮𝗿𝘁𝗶𝘀𝘁 𝗰𝗼𝗺𝗽𝗹𝗲𝘁𝗲𝘀 𝗵𝗶𝘀 𝘄𝗼𝗿𝗸The new Sunshine Coast Council dog laws which came into effect from Friday July 3 have now thrown the work of a popular sand artist into question.For the past two years Owen Cavanagh who is known as the 'Rakey Master ' has been down at the beach on dawn creating sand murals on the southern part of Coolum Beach - often many times in one week and always with his trusty best mate, 'Max' the blue staffy by his side - securely on leash. Owen uses that particular site as people can easily see his work from the many vantages from the Coolum Boardwalk which is directly above. The new dog laws and new signage show that dogs are now banned from beach access 81 (where the Coolum Boardwalk starts) to beach access 82 (First Bay) and the new rules have taken many by surprise. Owen said this not only affected him but many others who walk the entire length of the beach up to where the rocks start. "Unless you see that sign, people won't know that dogs are now banned."Max goes everywhere with me and I didn't realise these new rules would ban dogs from this part of the beach."What do you think?

This morning our time Spain defeated Argentina 1-0 and won the World Cup. “It's 1.30am and the celebrations don't look like they are going to end anytime soon,” Angie said. Max has been living in Spain for four years now after moving there as a young teenager and taking up a position in a Spanish Football Academy. Many young promising Australian football players have to move overseas to follow their dreams due to pathways being limited here. “Last season Max played for AD Merida which was his first contract with a professional club.”Mum Angie and Dad Andrew have both spent a lot of time in Spain supporting their son and watching his football career come to fruition.
