THEY don�t always shoot the messenger.
   Freelance journalist John Rumney is living proof of that.
   John received a certificate of appreciation from Russell Island Dolphins Cricket Club at its first annual presentation day.
   The club recognised �his continual work in promoting our club in the media�.
Career details and current projects
Where the reports appeared
MOST of John�s reports on and pictures of the Dolphins appeared in the Rural Press publications,
Redland Times, Bayside Bulletin and Southern Bay News, to which he has been a contributing writer for several years.
   The veteran news hound moved to Russell Island in 2003 to set up a writing and editing agency.

Island communuity grows
�THE southern Moreton Bay islands make a good base to service the south-east Queensland boom region,� John said.
   �Only a few years ago this island cluster on the doorstep of an Australian capital city was a backwater.
   �It is fantastic to watch the growth of the community. Now we have not only a host of new services and residents with a big range of interests but also a cricket club, affiliated with the sport�s governing bodies.
   �That is a great thing for the island community.
   �When reporting sport in my past lives I always kept in mind that a sport event lasts only a few hours but a club or individual�s sporting associations run 24/7.
   �The Dolphins have quickly become entrenched in the community and I am happy to help.�
