It was one of the biggest crowds ever at the Methven Rodeo on Sunday. Methven is one of the largest rodeos in New Zealand with crowds annually estimated to climb over 6000. Secretary Rosa Dekker said the big numbers had been pushed along by a good number of entries and perfect weather. Crowd behaviour had been fantastic, there had been no stock injuries, while human injuries were confined to a popped shoulder in the barrel racing and a ripped toenail in the bull fighter clowns. When it came to the most dangerous event of the day, the open bull riding, the bulls came out on top. “The bulls were the winners of the weekend, the bulls beat the cowboys,” she said. Only one competitor, Merv Church (Junior), had managed to stay on the bull for eight seconds, which is required for a qualified ride. He was the only competitor from the weekend at both Winchester and Methven to have had a qualified ride. “I sort of expected myself to stay on for eight seconds because the day before (at Winchester) I bucked off, so it’s not very likely to buck off two in a row,” the 25-yearold cowboy from Rerewhakaaitu said. A break in all the action at the rodeo saw a fleece weight-guessing competition and auction, which raised almost $10,000 for the McLeod family. There were 111 entries in the barrel racing, the highest ever at Methven. Committee member Gemma Oliver said barrel racing was growing in popularity as rodeo organisers nationwide made it more accessible, holding more training days and jackpot events. “People are getting a taste for it

the Blue and Brown Pubs on Sunday. “I think it was the biggest one we have certainly had for quite a few years that I remember,” den Baars said.

The success of the event for Methven was testimony to the hard work of the rodeo committee, which ensured a well-run event and then put the proceeds back into the community, she

Local Liam Hofsteede produced solid results at Sunday’s Methven Rodeo.

said. Meanwhile, evidence of the great crowd behaviour, police said they had no incidents of significance to report from the weekend. However, scammers tried to take

advantage of the huge interest in the event and put up a “Stream Methven Rodeo” link to try and get people to divulge their credit card details, forcing the rodeo committee to post a warning on its Facebook page.

Courage is needed to ride any bucking horse, but when the only support you have is less than 15cm of overall contact, the bravery indicator is well-and-truly in the red. Talented local cowboy Liam Hofsteede, competed in Sunday’s rodeo, earning himself a very respectable second place for his efforts. His ride at Winchester the day before didn’t go as well as he ‘touched out’ meaning his free hand touched either the horse or part of his body, earning him an instant disqualification. “I don’t let bad rides worry me, I learn from them, but once I am back on a bucking horse again, I don’t let anything get to me.” Hofsteede has been riding horses since he was eight and took up bare back bronc riding five years ago.

His mum Linda gets excited and a bit nervous before he rides, but has confidence in his abilities. He knows what he is doing, she said. “He takes it seriously and he is very fit. This is his sport really.” The 24-year-old said a good ride on the day depends on having your rigging set up correctly. The rigging, described as a suitcase type handle which is placed on the horse’s withers and secured by a cinch, is all the cowboy has to hold onto with one hand. “I put specially treated pine sap on the handle. The friction makes it sticky and easier to hold on to, but when I dismount, it also makes it easier to slide my hand out.” Getting off is the most dangerous part of the ride. “We spend a lot of time training how to get off the right side, get it wrong and you can be in all kinds of trouble.” Dismounting on the left can lead to a cowboy getting “hung up” which is when their hand is

folded over the handle and they cannot get it free, this triggers the specialist pick-up riders to come and help. In preparation for each event, Hofsteede’s shopping list includes metres and metres of strapping tape, to stop his elbow from hyper flexing, and lots of talcum powder, also applied to his rigging and glove for grip. “I have had many a strange look at the supermarket checkout when I put down 20 rolls of tape and lots of baby powder.” He said trying to explain his odd purchases only leads to further confusion, so he pretends not to notice the sideways glances and heads for the door. Currently Hofsteede is a stock manager at a North Canterbury station. He did have his eyes set on the overseas rodeo circuit, but with overseas travel dates uncertain at the moment, the young rider is happy to stay here and add other rodeo disciplines to his repertoire.

THE PLAINS WEEKEND SPECIAL

There was no better place to be on the weekend that the Plains Museum Railway Complex. The hugely popular location hosted an open day on Saturday and the crowds flocked in to check out what was on offer.

White-faced heron in need of campaign manager By Susan Sandys susan.s@theguardian.co.nz

White-faced herons are tall and elegant birds with striking blue-grey plumage. PHOTO CRAIG MCKENZIE

Tall and elegant, they can be seen stalking their prey in damp pastures and water races of Mid Canterbury. The white-faced heron is admired by farmers, photographers and bird lovers alike. But the heron has nonetheless emerged as one of the orphans in this year’s Bird of the Year competition, left wanting for a campaign manager. Spokesperson Laura Keown said of the almost 80 birds in the competition, which begins on November 2, about 20 still did not have campaign managers. These birds were at a distinct disadvantage when it came to being able to attract votes from the public. “A bird has never won without a strong campaign manager getting onto social media and advocating strongly, posting silly photos,” Keown said. She said any Mid Cantabrians who wanted to become the campaign manager for the white-faced

heron, or any other Mid Canterbury birds, to get in touch at k.serpes@ forestandbird.org.nz To find out which birds do not have campaign managers, people need to go to the Bird of the Year website. Other Mid Canterbury birds which do not have campaign managers include the banded dotterel, which nests on braided river beds, the welcome swallow, which nests in barns and stables, and the pukeko. Those which do have campaign managers include the fantail, bellbird, harrier, paradise shelduck, black-billed gull and royal spoonbill. Campaign managers for the latter, Abigail Robinson and Olivia Adams, said they were excited to be backing the bird that was wily enough to evolve a utensil on its face. “They will never be caught unprepared when all the spoons are dirty in the office lunch room. That’s the kind of Kiwi ingenuity we support.” Last year’s Bird of the Year winner was the yellow-eyed penguin.

Adding nostalgic charm to MoPar run Mid Canterbury played host to ‘MoPar in the South’ annual car rally in the weekend. The South Island based club added a certain amount of nostalgic charm to the district as 108 Chrysler vehicles, set off around the district. Invercargill’s Sean O’Neill said the weekend was a great opportunity for like-minded car owners to get together. “We have had a lot of laughs over the weekend.” Drew Webber, also from Invercargill, said it was like stepping back 30 or 40 years, to how things used to be, he said. “So far I am spending more on beer than petrol,” quipped Webber. O’Neill said the cars are a spectacular sight when they rumble down the road together. “Down by Geraldine a farmer on his quad bike stopped in his paddock and filmed us on his phone. Others bring their kids out to wave and watch us. It’s a great thing to be part of,” he said. Both Webber and O’Neill agree the cars may be getting older, but their popularity is growing. “We have more and more people come along each year,” said O’Neill. MoPar is short for motor parts and was originally coined in the parts and service division of the Chrysler group. Included under the MoPar umbrella are the likes of Dodge Challengers, Chrysler Valliants, Jeeps and Plymouths.

Former local killed in long weekend crash By Matt Markham matt.m@theguardian.co.nz

A former Mid Canterbury man has been named as one of seven people killed on roads across New Zealand over the long weekend. Julian Yates, who grew up in the Methven area, where his father developed Pudding Hill Lodge at the foot of Mt Hutt was killed when a trailer loaded with glass panels detached from a van and smashed into his vehicle on the Weka Pass Road in Hurunui, North Canterbury on Friday. The 52-year-old was reportedly travelling to see his mother when the accident happened. While no longer living in Mid Canterbury, Yates will have been known to many locals through his work as a cruise-boat captain in Akaroa. He worked for Black Cat Cruises, one of the main tourism operators in the Akaroa area. He was described by his son, Rhodry Yates in an interview with Stuff as a “man of the sea”. “He was a man of radiance and compassion and he was a big joker. He influenced a lot of people in so many positive ways. To me, he was more than just my dad, he was my best friend and number one companion in life,” he said in the interview. Black Cat Cruises confirmed this week that some of their trips from Akaroa would be affected following the accident as the team took time to celebrate Yates’ life. Yates was one of seven people killed on New Zealand roads over the long weekend – although his death isn’t officially counted in the long weekend road toll which began on Friday evening. His accident on Friday, around lunch time was followed by a motorcyclist being killed in an accident in Upper Hutt on Friday evening. Then, on Saturday, a 36-year-old died in a crash near Gisborne. In Tekapo on Saturday, a 42-year-old from Auckland was killed when his car collided with another on the southern side of the tourist location. It is understood cellphone use and speed were factors in the accident. A pedestrian died later in the day following a crash in Whanganui and then on Monday, a seventh fatality was confirmed by police following a crash in Horowhenua late on Sunday night.

Driven by adrenalin, determination By Heather Mackenzie heather.m@theguardian.co.nz

Former Mid Cantabrian, Heather Tucker didn’t get much sleep on election night, but she wouldn’t have had it any other way. It wasn’t the election results or a good party that kept the 61-year-old awake, Tucker (nee Hewson) spent 24 hours walking a gruelling 122.68 kms around her local area Ohope Beach, just out of Whakatane, raising money for the Neurological Foundation. Putting her achievement in perspective she walked slightly further than from Ashburton to Waimate, or more impressively, completed three full marathons back to back. “I think I was driven by adrenalin and an absolute determination to achieve my goal.” Originally Tucker was going to take part in the official Ultra 24 challenge in Nelson at the start of the month, but when Covid-19 caused it to be pushed to 2021 Tucker decided the cause was too important to her, so she mapped out her own 10.5km circuit and left her driveway at 8am on Saturday, characteristic smile on her face. Tucker, who originally hails from Anama, said she found walking through the night easier than she thought it would be as she had a different friend walking beside her for a 2 to 2.5 hour stretch.

“I assumed I would be far too weary to carry out a conversation with them, but [I] never stopped chatting, which made the time seem to go by quite quickly.” At the end of a two hour stretch Tucker would stop for no longer than 15 minutes for a cuppa, some creamed rice and a change of shoes and then she would be off again, with a different companion in tow. Her planned walk nearly came unstuck when an errant beach going dog bowled her over. She said she felt a hard knock on her leg and before she knew it she was flat on the ground, water bottle in the small of her back. “After this happened I found the hills a bit harder as my back was hurting from the fall, so the last few stretches were mainly on the flat.” Tucker is delighted with her accomplishment and the $3683 she has raised so far. “I feel proud to have done something significant in memory of special family members we have lost.” Tucker knows a bit about loss. When she was five her father died of a cerebral haemorrhage at age 48, then 10 years ago her brother Rex was diagnosed with brain cancer and some years before that her brother Stuart was killed in a fire. If losing her dad and two brothers wasn’t bad enough, Tucker herself needed the foundation’s help when she suffered a stroke at age 28.

A squash injury left her with a sore neck for a few days. Finally getting fed up with the discomfort she headed off to see her GP, who carried out a manipulation on her neck. However, this didn’t help at all. “The pain only increased, and one day I awoke from a brief nap unable to control any parts of my body and with guttural sounds coming out of my mouth when I tried to talk. It was discovered that the manipulation had caused a dissection in my vertebral artery resulting in a stroke.” Tucker is not ready to hang up her walking shoes just yet. In March next year she has her name down for the Nelson Ultra 24. That Ultra 24 has an elevation of 485m per loop. So, by the time Tucker has completed 10 loops of the track she would have climbed a total elevation of 15,912ft, considerably higher than Mt Cook, she said. Jacquelynne Lennard, marketing and engagement specialist for the Neurological Foundation of New Zealand said the foundation has been funding life-changing research since 1971. Lennard pointed out that recent advancements have led to successful treatment options for conditions where previously no treatment existed. “We’re proud that the work we fund saves lives and gives many people the opportunity for a greater quality of living.

Gruelling journey recounted Scott Donaldson was the first person to make it kayaking solo from Australia to New Zealand, and spoke to farmers at the Ashburton Trust Event Centre. By Susan Sandys susan.s@theguardian.co.nz

Scott Donaldson regaled Mid Canterbury farmers with a tall tale on Friday night, and every bit of it was true. The former Commonwealth Games triathlete and security company operator, who grew up on a North Island farm, was the first person to successfully kayak solo from Australia to New Zealand.

He was the guest speaker at Talley’s annual function to celebrate its growers at the Ashburton Trust Event Centre. Donaldson’s journey in 2018 took 61 days, where he paddled for up to 16 hours each day. Some days the sea was too rough for paddling, while on the worst days currents and wind would drive him backwards. He had four years earlier abandoned a previous attempt after his kayak sustained a broken rudder just 80 kilometres

from the New Zealand coast, following 84 days at sea. Donaldson told the farmers that as gruelling as the journey was, there was never a time he felt like giving up, and most of the time he was having the time of his life. “Whenever I am paddling I am happy,” he said. He never cursed the weather, considering it was what it was, even in the case of a six-day storm. This forced him to stop paddling and shelter inside the

cabin of his kayak, which he said was like being in a coffin. During this time he forced himself to throw out his goal-setting process, and sometimes even go into a meditative state to clear his mind completely. Night time was the hardest, as after lying on his back all day he would then have to try and sleep. “I did everything I could to fill my thoughts with a huge variety of constructive and positive things in order to engage myself so completely that I didn’t think

about the possible consequences of the storm,” he said. “I knew that if I let even one negative thought creep into my brain, it could significantly reduce my capacity to deal with the conditions I was in.” The farmers attending the function on Friday night not only got to hear all about Donaldson’s journey, they also were able to see his kayak, which he brought along with him and had installed it in the foyer for viewing.

OUR VIEW

The onset of the ripple effect By Matt Markham matt.m@theguardian.co.nz

E

veryone now and then you need a stark reminder that life is still pretty tough out there for a lot of people. It’s great that the South Island is still extending its no community transmission sequence and the chance of anything major happening in our part of New Zealand seem, touch wood, slim. We’re slowly returning to the stable sort of life that we were used to back when we didn’t even know what Covid-19 was. But that doesn’t mean we aren’t impacted by the pitfalls of a global pandemic and the financial impacts that a country-wide lockdown had on New Zealand. We’ve often talked about what the ripple effect might look like and it seems as though now we’re starting to get a glimpse. Because while we are stepping back out and attending events again, hugging our nearest and dearest when we meet them in the street and just generally trying to get back on with life, some of our more wellknown and familiar faces are facing some tougher times. There’s been plenty of word around at the moment about the struggle it has been for many retailers to get stock into their stores at the moment and with one of the busiest shopping times of the year just around the corner, there’s beads of sweat starting to form on their collective brow. Sure, we might be out there and ready to spend a bit of money, but we need our stores to be able to have access to stock so we actually have something to buy in the first place and at the moment, in some corners, it’s looking pretty grim. And that’s tough and an often-undiscussed dilemma, especially by those in a position to perhaps try and make a difference. We’re too caught up in the moment and what we can see right in front of us, but always – right from the very outset – some of the biggest challenges we will face from Covid-19 were those that we couldn’t see. The unpredictable and the destroying. Concerningly, there seems to be more and more of it raising its head as the weeks go on. So keep an eye out, while you may have had a great day out living your best life – someone you know very well might be sitting in their office at work, wondering just what to do next.

Employment Exchange on again N

ext week, there is a great opportunity at the Ashburton Club & MSA for people looking to take the next step in their career or to expand their business, but you’ll need to register to attend by this Friday, October 30. The free Ashburton Employment Exchange is a training and networking event specially designed for both jobseekers and employers, and it’ll be getting under way on Wednesday, November 4 at 9am sharp. When the first Employment Exchange ran last year, it was tremendously successful. Feedback from attendees described an event that gave them practical advice and insights, opened their eyes to opportunities and brought them face to face with the very people who wanted to work for them or who were looking for job candidates with their particular attitude or skill sets. Importantly, a number of jobs were secured from the Exchange because of the connections made and information about both candidates and opportunities that were shared. This year’s event is built on these same principles, so if you’re a local employer or someone who is perhaps faced with changing career paths, don’t miss out on the Ashburton Employment Exchange. For jobseekers, you’ll be provided useful advice on how

to successfully transition to a different career path, learn about the range of training courses that can improve your prospects, and you’ll hear from a panel of local employers on the things they look for in job applications. If you’re an employer, you’ll be taken through the variety of support initiatives that are available, hear about professional services to help navigate the post-covid world, and gain insights into what to expect from the current employment market and how to uncover opportunities. After everyone has had their training, the two groups will get together over morning tea, and this is your chance to put those learnings into practice and make a worthwhile connection with an employer or jobseeker. Guest speakers will include Ministry of Social Development, Zest People, Canterbury Employers’ Chamber of Commerce and representatives from local businesses. As you can tell from the programme above, the Exchange is completely unlike any career expo you might be familiar

The year 2020 literally started off with a cough and a roar, and many New Zealanders have felt pummelled around ever since. We have seen a significant impact on our economy, our employment, and our overall wellbeing, with some experts predicting worse is yet to come. The next decade will require careful policy, spending and revenue recalibrations to recover and move forward. Whereas our immediate response to Covid-19 required some short-term, urgent action, the new government has a little

A comprehensive overhaul of the cumbersome, complex, and costly Resource Management Act is critically overdue, and looks to finally be about to happen. more time to make its decisions. Ministers need to take that time to listen, particularly to those directly impacted, and to take on board the facts, evidence, and science before them, even if it is not necessarily saying what they want to hear. There is no use having laws or regulations that sound good in theory, but either do not work in practice, or can only work with disproportionate and unnecessarily high costs and resourcing. There must be an end to the raft of government working groups stacked with people hand-selected by Ministers to reinforce their views. A diversity of views is needed, particularly from those on the

ground who understand the topic. We need quality lawmaking that is workable, practical, and importantly, affordable. It needs to be backed up by objective science, and the costs of making it work need to stack up against any likely benefits. In respect to farming, there is a way to get win/wins for both the environment and our primary sector producers. It does not need to be one at the price of the other. Representatives of the last government recognised that changes would need to be made to the unworkable components of the new national freshwater regulations. We will be push-

ing for a broader review of the regulations to determine what changes are needed. More broadly, a comprehensive overhaul of the cumbersome, complex, and costly Resource Management Act is critically overdue, and looks to finally be about to happen. In our view, some of the core principles of the Act remain sound, and both the ‘effects-based’ ethos, and the requirement to balance environmental, economic, social, and cultural wellbeings, should remain. Finding the right balance may not be easy, but it lays the critical foundation for sensible decision-making into the future. The government needs to get

on top of the endless stream of national regulations it’s been rolling out and piling onto local government to implement (and pay for). Too often these regulations are at cross-purposes with each other. For instance, one regulation might require farmers to fence off waterways, yet another might prevent the earthworks or vegetation clearance necessary to do so. Similarly, local councils might be required to upgrade their water infrastructure, yet national freshwater regulations might make this so burdensome and costly, that it becomes impossible. Although the government has a renewed mandate, and an enthusiasm to lay the path for this next term, we urge calm, clear, constructive, considered, and inclusive decision-making and reform. That is what we seek for this parliamentary term, and we look forward to working with government to continue making gains for our environment, economy, and wellbeing.

Improving yields through attraction Fairton farmer David Ward says native plantings have encouraged beneficial insects on his farm reducing the need for crop sprays and assisting with pollination of crops. PHOTO SUPPLIED

By Heather Chalmers heather.c@theguardian.co.nz

Native plantings not only look good, they can also improve crop yields by attracting a wider range of crop pollinators and beneficial insects, a Fairton biodiversity field day was told. Plant and Food Research scientist Dr Brad Howlett, who leads a team on beneficial diversity, said one of its aims was to identify insects that provided beneficial services giving economic value to crops. On the Canterbury Plains less than 0.5 per cent of remnant native vegetation remained. In intensive cropping systems, both here and globally, farmers relied on managed hives of honey bees for pollination. In Canterbury, honey bees were required to pollinate carrot, onion, white clover, radish and various brassica crops. “But when you just rely on honey bees

you can end up with pollination deficits, particularly with carrots and sometimes white clover, even when using the recommended hive numbers.” Instead, global studies showed that maximum pollination would only be achieved through the combined use of wild insects and honey bees, Howlett told the field day organised by Kanuka Mid Canterbury Regeneration Trust. This was because honey bees weren’t the best pollinators in all circumstances. Honey bees like sunny, warm conditions to forage, whereas other insects are active in cooler conditions. Native bees also had a different flight movement which was particularly effective in white clover crops, Howlett said. Studies showed that 30 per cent of native bees could be crop pollinators, “but numbers of wild bees are variable so we can’t rely on them at the moment”. To encourage native bees, landowners were encouraged to protect or establish

native vegetation, plant herbaceous strips of wild flowers and look after bee nesting sites. Insects like hoverflies had a dual role, pollinating as well as controlling pests in crops. Researchers had also looked at individual native plants to identify what insects they served and whether they were useful in a planting. The cabbage tree was an excellent example of one plant that could support a whole range of crop pollinating insects for pak choi, radish, white clover, carrot and onion crops. Cabbage trees also had no interaction with pest species. Carmichaelia Australis (native broom) supported a valuable insect for white clover. In contrast, exotic plants such as pine shelterbelts had a greater association with pest species than native plants. Native plants were an option for farmers on unproductive parts of their farm, Howlett said. Questions still to be answered by researchers included how far a native planting can influence crop pollination and the best composition of plants to optimise beneficial insect biodiversity. John Evans said that on his former coastal farm at Dorie, native and exotic plantings had been grown to encourage beneficial insects and bees. Although the plantings only covered 2ha of the farm in total, it had made a beneficial difference. Greater numbers of beneficial insects meant they were able to reduce their spraying programme and only spray to target a particular pest, rather than using

a broad-spectrum insecticide, Evans said. Fairton farmer David Ward said it was not just honey bees but other diverse pollinators living in treelines and native plantings that improved pollination rates and crop yields, if encouraged through the use of integrated pest management. These other pollinators were estimated to be responsible for almost 20 per cent of carrot seed crop pollination. “On the cold days, when bees aren’t going, you’ve got something else active in your crop.” While the normal rule of thumb for radish crops was two hives a hectare, he only used one as insurance. “They spread further and faster than you think. If you don’t knock them out with sprays they will travel 400m to 800m. “If they have a habitat they can live in, when the time is right they flick the switch and multiply,” Ward said. In 2013, under the guidance of Tai Tapu native plant nurseryman and consultant Stephen Brailsford, Ward had 1.5 kilometres of natives planted in a 3m strip along one road boundary and through the middle of the farm. Kanuka Trust chairwoman Jane Riach said its vision was to protect and regenerate biodiverse ecosystems in Mid Canterbury through education and collaboration. “One of Kanuka’s goals is planting for purpose, with the aim of enhancing biodiversity and improving the environment through planting. When we at Kanuka talk about the environment, we consider not only the obvious – land, water, air, flora and fauna – but also the individuals involved, the community, the culture and the economy,” Riach said.

Dairying short hundreds of staff

The dairy industry still has about 800 vacancies, despite a big nationwide push to attract New Zealanders to the industry.

The dairy industry says despite a big push to try and attract locals, it is still hundreds of staff short this season. Dairy NZ chief executive Tim Mackle said there were about 800 vacancies farmers were still looking to fill. The busy calving period had been challenging and exhausting for those who were unable to plug gaps, he said. Mackle said a government-backed GoDairy course launched in May to attract and upskill locals did help, but like many in the primary sector, it had not seen as much demand for work as was expected. “GoDairy was designed during the first Covid-19 lockdown in April when unemployment was expected to reach upwards of 9 per cent, if not higher, by late 2020.

“In practice, while there have been job losses, unemployment has not yet reached those expected highs due to the Government’s wage subsidy and other policies,” he said. Covid-19 had shone a light on the importance of migrant workers to primary production right across the board and that was something industry leaders needed to take a good look at, he said. Chief executive of the Primary Industry Capability Alliance, Michelle Glogau, said since 2014 it had been working to attract people to the food and fibre sectors. Glogau said this included working with schools to educate young people about the

wide range of job opportunities available and targeting career changers, who often had transferable skills. “We are making progress ... the workforce is growing, but probably not as quickly as we would like, it’s just that ongoing challenge to attract those people into our sector with those specialised skills.” She said one silver lining to come out of Covid-19 was that it had raised the profile of the primary industries, which had been less disrupted than many other sectors by Covid-19. “It’s actually made people probably see the opportunity in the sector.” About three months ago the Ministry for Primary Industries

launched a campaign trying to attract thousands of New Zealanders to fill the gaps in the primary sector created by Covid-19 border restrictions. This is expected to run for four years. MPI’s skills and performance director Cheyne Gillooly said while it was early days for the campaign, there had been positive signs. “We’re seeing a lot of New Zealanders come on to the Opportunity Grows Here site, so I think we’ve had upwards of 170,000 people visit the site already and we’ve had quite a few people sign up for the training programmes and starting to explore what their career options in the sector may look like.” – RNZ

Perfect day out for Green 400th training success, two impressive winners

By Matt Markham matt.m@theguardian.co.nz

Ray Green’s always been a fan of Ashburton – and it’s a love affair that grew even stronger on Monday. The North Island horseman not only notched up his 400th training success with his winning double, but sounded some hefty alarm bells in the direction of the heavy-hitters of Cup Week with his brace of victories. The most important came in the Ashburton Flying Stakes when Copy That delivered a brilliant performance to win the Ashburton Flying Stakes where he beat Cup heavyweights, Self Assured and Spankem. The other came earlier in the day when the diminutive American Dealer emerged on top of a red-hot three-year-old field in the Sires Stakes heat in the hands of David Butcher. “It’s been a pretty good day,” the quietly spoken horseman said. “I came down thinking I had two good chances, but to see them both deliver like that is really pleasing as we start to look towards Cup Week.” Much had been said about the clash between Copy That and the All Stars pair in the Flying Stakes – their first for the season – but when Blair Orange found the front at the winning post with a lap to run and then dashed home in some incredible sectionals, there was no hope for anyone else. “He’s done that very easily and

ASHBURTON

Chris Johnson – back in the saddle at Ashburton tomorrow.

Johnson set to return By Matt Markham matt.m@theguardian.co.nz

One week after it was revealed he was fighting to save his career, champion New Zealand jockey Chris Johnson is set to make a return to the saddle at Ashburton tomorrow – with an all-time New Zealand record just eight wins away. Johnson’s latest scandal began when he failed a breathalyser test after riding in the first race at Riccarton on September 12. He returned a blood alcohol rate of 133mcg/l, being above the allowed level for jockeys when riding of 100mcg. This is different to the legal limit for a driver of a motor vehicle at 250mcg. Johnson quickly admitted the test and was suspended until October 16 and fined $1000. However two weeks ago, the legendary hoop – who has a cultlike following across New Zealand – received correspondence from New Zealand Thoroughbred Racing that his licence was under review by their licensing panel, and that despite his sus-

pension ending that weekend he wouldn’t be able to ride again until the panel was satisfied that his riding “does not pose an elevated risk of harm to yourself, or others’’. The letter drew wide criticism of NZTR and its decision, with many calling it a continued witch hunt against Johnson who has fallen foul of racing authorities throughout his career. But NZTR stood staunch on their decision with chief executive Bernard Saundry saying that they want to work with Johnson as his welfare and that of his fellow jockeys and horses was paramount. Johnson is understood to have sought legal advice on the matter and visited a specialist in the field of alcohol dependency recently to obtain an assessment, and late last week it was confirmed he was cleared to return to riding with this week’s Ashburton meeting his first official day back in the saddle. Johnson will start the meeting on 2443 career riding wins in New Zealand, just eight-short of the record set by David Walsh.

CRICKET

Allenton produce demolition job By Matt Markham matt.m@theguardian.co.nz

A demolition job with the ball by two Allenton bowlers set the tone for an outstanding victory against Weedons in the Canterbury Country competition on Saturday at the Ashburton Domain. An almost 10-over spell from opening bowlers, Manpreet Hakkla and Harmandeep Sandhu, was all Allenton required to roll Weedons for just 39 runs as they romped to a 260-run victory. Spurred on by their second-round victory a week earlier, Allenton were in the box seat from the outset, after winning the toss and choosing to wield the willow for the opening innings of the match.

Tech Stags fall to third straight defeat A 63-run opening partnership between Karmjeet Singh (52) and Satveer Singh (23) put them on the front foot, before a middle order stand of 83 between Singh and Gurtej Singh (55) kicked them on either further. But they weren’t finished. An unbeaten 75 from Satwant Singh, who hit 11 fours and one six in his 65-ball innings, saw the hosts push through to an impressive 299 for nine at the end of their forty overs in the middle. Weedons were left with an almighty task to get any points from the match, and it was going to take something remarkable for them to even get close – but few

could have predicted just how tough it would be. Allenton’s opening bowlers, Manpreet Hakkla and Harmandeep Sandhu, tore the Weedons batting line-up apart in just 9.4 overs with the visitors dismissed for just 39 runs. Sandhu was particularly damaging, claiming 6-16 off his 4.4 overs while Hakkla claimed 3-23 off his five. The win puts Allenton in a great spot to push forward for the rest of the season, although they’ll have to wait a little bit longer to get back on the pitch with the bye falling their way this weekend. Meanwhile, over on the Ashburton Domain Oval, the day wasn’t quite as joyful for the Tech Stags, who crumbled to their third consecutive defeat, at the hands of the table-topping Pleasant Point, losing by 138 runs. Pleasant Point won the toss and chose to bat first, and put together a solid show at the top of the innings with a 101-run opening stand before their first wicket fell in the 17th over of the inning. They ended their 50 overs with 272 runs for six wickets on the board, and the locals were facing a big uphill battle to get their first success of the season. Alex Veint was the pick of the Tech bowlers, picking up 3-50 off his nine overs.

In reply, Tech made a solid enough start. Jason Morrison’s innings high 36 set a good foundation. When Matthew Tait (24) fell eight overs later the rot started and Tech quickly found themselves all out in the 31st over for 134. Tech’s focus will now turn towards their clash with Timaru, who like the Stags are yet to get a win on the board for the season, giving the Mid Canterbury side a golden opportunity to get their season under way properly.

RUGBY LEAGUE

Visitors prevail in AC event Aoraki fall at final hurdle

By Adam Burns adam.b@theguardian.co.nz

The out-of-towners made the early gains during the inter-regional croquet at the weekend. The Waireka club hosted the four-day Association Croquet Handicap Tournament which began on Saturday in Ashburton. The tourney attracted players from Christchurch, Timaru and Oamaru alongside the hometown favourites. The event was split into two sections of seven and eight respectively. Although the handicap doubles were still to be settled before going to print, it was Oamaru’s Derek Atkinson who landed the initial breakthrough, clinching the HC singles event. The Awamoa Gardens club member, who is on a 12 handicap, was previously successful at the corresponding event last year and secured top billing in the first block. South Cantabrian Graeme Simpson, of the Aorangi club, won the second block but had to settle for second place. Event organiser Raylene Phillips said the locals also performed well across the weekend. “Everyone won some and lost some and had a very nice time,” she said. “The weather was very kind on Saturday and Sunday. “It got a bit grumpy on yesterday (Monday) and a bit grumpy today but we can’t complain.”

The Aoraki Eels proved no match for a rampant Otago outfit as the southerners clinched the South Island Men’s Championship series over Labour Weekend. The host team fell to a 38-6 defeat in Sunday’s decider at Timaru’s Alpine Energy Stadium, after winning two of their three round robin encounters earlier in the two-day tournament. The Eels, who featured a sprinkling of Mid Canterbury representatives, began their campaign strongly on the Saturday with a hard fought 24-18 win over Southland. Later in the day they succumbed to a narrow 24-20 defeat to Otago. In other opening day results, Otago hammered West Coast 42-18, before Southland also got in on the act, belting the Coasters 44-0. Aoraki then booked a final meeting with Otago courtesy of a 24-4 win over West Coast on Sunday. Otago finished the round robin unbeaten following a 35-12 win over Southland that same morning. It was not to be however for the Eels, who were outgunned in the tournament finale. The weekend finished on a high for a handful of the Eels who were selected for the Southern Zone Scorpions, set to face a New Zealand Universities rugby league selection in Christchurch next month. Three of the Ashburton Barbarians who played at the weekend including Ioelu Leo, Isireli Masiwini and Tololima Savaiinae are set to line up for the Southern team.

Softball stalemate

By Adam Burns adam.b@theguardian.co.nz

It was a tough grind in senior mixed softball for two of the Mid Canterbury teams. The local competition moved into its second week of fixtures on Saturday after the season

was set off seven days prior. The Fairfield Ratbags drew with the Panthers 2-2 in a low scoring scrap on the diamond. That was not the case in the other two showdowns at Argyle Park. It was a day of mixed fortunes for the Hampstead club as the Phoenix knocked over

the Demon Rebels 13-6. The Hampstead Heat could not replicate their fellow club members, falling to a 14-11 defeat to the Fairfield Ragamuffins. Earlier, junior T ball and softball grades were again a popular family melting pot as the season begins to heat up.

Proceedings resume on Saturday with the Ragamuffins taking on the Panthers. The defending champion Heat outfit will be looking to bounce back against the Demons, followed by the Ratbags and the Phoenix rounding out the weekend of senior softball action.

Sunlit Stableford GOLF

The Tinwald Golf Club hosted an American Stableford round amid splendid conditions on Saturday. Club members Percy Kelsall (58) and Struan Scott (56) were the best of the low handicap contingent. Cameron Miller (56), Kevin Bishop (55) and Brian Rouse (53) also enjoyed strong rounds in the 13-18 bracket. Clarrie Whiting (59) and Arthur Pawsey (58) led the way in the 19-plus ranks. Emily Wilson (68) and Sally Lane (70) were the top two in the stroke event. Securing nearest to the pin breakthroughs were Brent Smith (#2). Brian Rouse (#6), Dave Rush (#12) and Isaac Preece (#16). Preece also was third best in the twos behind Tetua Tuakeu and Robin Simms. Andrew Barrie (left) gets swinging at Tinwald on Saturday, while Gary Lee (right) is all concentration as he looks to secure a short-ish putt.

Wylie scores superior win

CYCLING

Liz Wylie’s first major hit-out of the season came up trumps at the weekend. The cycling ace rode to victory in Tinwald Cycling Club’s, NBS Ashburton, 47km handicap event around the Graham’s Road block on Sunday. Riding off the front mark, Wylie (right) and her co-marker calculated their effort right to the second, getting to the finish line with metres to spare from the chasing group, who had put in a valiant effort in the home strait to haul them in. Helen Bancroft continued her good start to the season with a second-place finish. Rachel Reid charged into third place, producing a strong ride, followed by Lucy Kirwan in fourth spot, just reward for a committed display. Scratch marker Steve Hands secured the fastest time honours, riding the course in 69

Ashburton Electronic And Keyboard Club

A night with a great program organised by the Keyboard group. Play in was by Margaret Twamley on the piano. She played many old favourites some of which were in Medley form. Her modern piano style [modern in my time] provided very clear melody and accurate vamping accompaniment. First up was the whole Keybooard group consisting of Janet, Michael, Rose, Barbara, and Iris who all played a medley including ‘I Don’t See Me’ and ‘Strangers in the Night’ followed by ‘Moments to Remember’. Michael was the next performer, this time on the Organ donated by the family of Neville Mackay. He played ‘Heart’ using a series of Theatre organ presets with a great 6th chord finish, followed by ‘Venus’ where he used rhythm and percussion additions. Next was ‘In a Little Spanish Town’ emphasising Flute sounds with a Theatre Organ preset. ‘The Nun’s Chorus’ followed utilising the Pipe organ family of presets imitating smooth pipe organ flue sounds. Then as a finale the Theatre organ again with ‘Don’t Bring Lulu’. In between each piece played Michael was able to explain some of the workings and settings of the complicated organ controls. Great work Michael!

Next Barbara played a couple of selections of dance band songs beginning with a very delicate Waltz. Shirley then entertained us on her accordion playing ‘Til we meet again’, ‘Fields of Athenry’, ’China Town’ and a medley of ‘Anchors Away’, Iv’e got sixpence’ and Beautiful Isle’. The Keyboard group then got together again to give us three more songs. Their second item, also a medley, had ‘Me and My Girl’, ‘Birth Blues’ and ‘You are My World’. Iris followed the group with a couple of songs. Paul Simon’s ‘Sound of Silence’ was played first, then a surprise additional instrument when she played her new Ukulele Bass for ‘Lay down Beside Me’ A delightful piano selection then was played by Rose. ‘Someday’ and ‘Zing, went the Strings of my Heart’ Janet was then ready to play her keyboard ‘Before the next teardrop falls’ and ‘ I’m Gonna lay right down and write myself a letter’. Michael took the stage next to play his keyboard as a solo. From the movie “Old Yeller” he gave us his adaption of the theme followed by ‘Personality’ in a Boogie-Woodie style. The keyboard group assembled again to end the night’s program with three more songs. They played a combination of three more songs as a medley. We heard ‘ Ev’rybody In’, Whatever it takes’ and ‘Welcome, Once more’. The whole program was a feast of different sounds from mostly eletrontic instruments giving a well rounded variety of songs and styles. Thanks must go to all of the night’s performers and don’t forget to congratulate those players when you next meet up with them. Great work by players of the extra instruments also must be recognised. Wonderful entertainment . . . all of you.

Ashburton Golf Club

The first short week of spring is upon us, and of course it caught me totally unprepared. I was away from the course for the long weekend, and as of writing this I have no idea who won what over the weekend , so, sorry but the column may be a bit light on fact, but when has that ever stopped me. News I did receive was a hole in one by one of Ashburton’s favourite sons Hamish Niles. Now as I said I was not there but the story I got, is that Mish striped his driver to cover the 139-metre distance of the 14th hole, some may say Hamish? Driver? 139 metres? Really? I must say I was shocked myself until I heard he had a howling nor’wester behind him. Well done big fella. This Saturday, attention goes back onto the RMF Silva Cup with the final qualifying round in the Fourball best ball pairs game. The best score of the day will see both players pick up 12 points so it could well be a big moving day on the league table. After the scores are added to the table, a top 30, and ties, “cut” will be made. Then only these players can score points in the next round. We then re allocate points with 30 points going to the league leader, 29 for second, right down to 1 point for 30th and ties. We will look at the first Finals game in next week’s column. Next week’s column will be written “on the road” as its time again for Hoppy’s tour. Eight Jolly Boys led by the big fella are heading down to Queenstown for 7 days of golf and debauchery. We have a new tourist this year with Brendon Davidson coming along to give the tour a touch respectability, I reckon that will last till we reach Hinds. Anyway, I am sure we will uphold the great name of Ashburton across the central Otago region, and we will have plenty of stories to tell upon our return and some that we will certainly keep on tour. Good golfing.

Ashburton Inner Wheel

Annie Bonifant proved to be an excellent speaker with so much knowledge of all areas of her position in the cancer society, outlining points that many of our ladies were usure of, or unaware of. With a power point she shared so much information with us. There are 80 volunteers in Mid Canterbury helping in so many ways including health promotion, sun smart, smoke and vape free, eating well and driving service. As well they have an advocacy service, welfare, emotional support, practical support and the on going fundraising like Daffodil day and many other ways of sponsorship. This was

A selection from the Ashburton Woodworkers club. a speaker well worth listening to. Ashburton Inner Wheel Ladies have been thanked for the large amount of goodies collected for Kits for Kindy which have been sent to Vanuatu. Each month at our meetings we have a box for donating to Look Good Feel Better with all spare coins mounting up. As Inner Wheel ladies no longer require to be connected to Rotary any lady now is welcome to join Inner Wheel.

Ashburton Woodworkers

Dave Strong welcomed guest demonstrator Adriaan Slooten from the Timaru Woodworkers Club along with the 20 club members. Show and Tell: Geoff Brown: mulberry bowl. Dave Strong: a D spade handle. Roger Scammell: two jewellery boxes, one with inlaid sections. Kevin Challis: bowl, ash table. Chris Thompson: two examples of a Lionel Jeffcote items to be re-furbished. Adriaan Slooten: several examples of a wavy vase, egg cups. Wim Melchers: a completed laburnum bowl with mushrooms. Adriaan Slooten then demonstrated how he creates egg cups, vases with a wavy line at some point in a block of wood. He cut a curve in a block of wood then a thin section of contrasting wood on the band saw. Placing a moist paper towel this thin section was placed in the microwave for approximately 20 seconds so that it’s more flexible then glued between these two blocks and clamped tight, overnight. For the purpose of the demo he had another on hand which he proceeded to place one end in a chuck and turn as normal. Using a gouge with a steep bevel he hollowed one end with the aid of a small cardboard template until the correct shape was created. Having the measurements of a previous egg cup he transferred those onto this example and proceeded to chisel away the unnecessary wood. To get the desired diameter callipers were used, as shown in the photo below. A simple method to create interest and wonder. Wonder, how would you do that to achieve a container like that? Thanks Adriaan, a simple solution for an effective look.

Lions Club Of Ashburton

A hive of activity at Lions of Ashburton charity golf tournament.

President Roger Paterson presided over a good attendance for our club’s annual Quiz night. Special guest was Sir Richard Hadlee, who joined us for tea at our usual venue Hotel Ashburton.

Bruce Ferriman reported on the upcoming Golf Tournament. Lists circulated included Club visits, Guess Who’s Coming to Dinner, Playhouse Raffle and the use of the Club’s Food Trailer being hired on Saturday 7 No-

Coming from India, he took great interest in his two other iconic Kiwis Sir Edmund Hilary and Rachel Hunter! The Quiz, organised by Colin Morgan proved very successful with Club members and Sir Richard Hadlee really enjoying the relaxed atmosphere and fun component. The Big Smoke Rural Folk sub-committee met for a preliminary meeting regarding next year’s event. The Social Committee are organising a social gathering at the Hot Rod Club on Sunday 1 November. The Big Ticket on the agenda for this month was the Club’s Annual Golf Tournament. The day began with a well-supported breakfast emceed very capably by Matt Markham. Sir Richard Hadlee’s address was tremendous in terms of content and amusing anecdotes surrounding the game of cricket and players especially at International level. Two signed cricket bats were auctioned at the breakfast and made a very good profit. Following the breakfast Sir Richard was taken to the Ashburton Aviation Museum and received a personalised tour by Museum stalwart Warren Jemmett and Owen Moore before Sir Richard played in the Golf Tournament itself. The Golf Tournament consisted of approximately 130 players got underway ay 11am with the rain ‘holding off’. Organisers John Richards, George Brown, and Bruce Ferriman, along with a good backup committee, were delighted with the way the day went. The beneficiaries, The Chris Ruth Trust, The Mountain Bike Park, and the Ashburton Lions Club Charitable Trust would each benefit approximately $5000. Players came from all over Canterbury to participate in the tournament which was won by Emily Wilson on 45 Stableford points, with Murray Wackrow and Sam Luscombe second equal on 39 points. Richard Hadlee teamed up with John Richards, tournament sponsors Darryl Philips from Darryl Philips Motors and Peter Lund of Midland Seeds.

Mid Canterbury Central Friendship Club

President Carl Ruddenklau welcomed a roomful of members to the October meeting, including 3 visitors. The mini speaker this morning was Doug Collie who talked about his life so far. Doug has a twin brother, an older brother and a younger sister and were all bought up on the family farm at Dacre. He played rugby and tennis at school and still enjoys playing tennis. His first job was with J. E. Watson and he went on to become a stock agent for 10 years. He met his future wife Cathie, in 1972 on a blind date and were married in 1974. (The added attraction was her 1967 VW car, and both loved cheese rolls and whitebait). In 1976 they went on an Asian overland bus trip with his cousin and wife taking in Kathmandu, the Khyber Pass, Cashmere, Gallipoli, Russia and Scandinavia. In 1987 they went to London working for a cleaning company and earning good money, tax free. While there they bought a campervan and travelled extensively, eventually coming home via the USA. In 1979 they settled down in Southland with Doug doing shift work at the Tiwai Smelter and Cathy starting a family. In 1990 he took voluntary redundancy after buying a 264 acre farm at Dacre which he improved before selling it in 2002 and moved to Ashburton. Here he found work on various farms. In 2004 he changed direction and sold insurance in the district. Doug’s mother is 96 and is in care in Invercargill and they enjoy catching up with their 3 sons and 8 grandchildren at their holiday home in Kurow. Our main speaker was Glen Vallander who was introduced by President Carl. Glen’s background is secondary school teaching which showed out when talking to our group. His passion is geology which was the subject this morning and concentrated on the area of the Banks Peninsula. His talk was supported by a series of slides showing the location which also included the fault lines of the area. A few of the many interesting statements: The alpine fault moves about every 320 years. The Darfield earthquake started 10 kms below. Aftershocks felt up to 10 years later. Rocks at Mt Somers match those at Banks Peninsula and are 95-100 years old. Banks Peninsula ended its erupting cycle 11 million years ago but still has many hot springs. Lytlelton volcano was a series of craters. Lyttelton Harbour is 8.1 million years old. Timaru and Geraldine basalt is 2.5 years old. Our club secretary Clayton Howard thanked Glen for his most interesting presentation.

ARIES (Mar 21-Apr 19): Right now, you’re building. This isn’t the easy part. Get into the mindset that you’re going to hack away at it until you figure out what you’re doing. Later, you’ll be proud. TAURUS (Apr 20-May 20): You’re making a difference in the life of another. Their gratitude is nice but optional, and in no way connected to the reward, which you’re still unaware of. In time, you will know precisely what it is. GEMINI (May 21-Jun 21): Duties land on the most dutiful. If they are landing on no one right now, a situation will form that serves as a clarion call. The dutiful will soon rise up. CANCER (Jun 22-Jul 22): You can give all the options, but you can’t control what other people will choose. As the saying goes, “There’s no accounting for taste.” There is, however, learning of taste, and it will be a curve indeed. LEO (Jul 23-Aug 22): “If you would be a real seeker after truth, it is necessary that at least once in your life you doubt, as far as possible, all things.” – Rene Descartes. Now, how far is possible for you? VIRGO (Aug 23-Sep 22): You might be aware that there is, as there always was, this ringing out of your heart – a beacon calling all who can get the signal and even those who can only feel the bounce. LIBRA (Sep 23-Oct 23): Your team is large in number and strong in stature, diverse in nature and geographically extensive. And yet, you get the feeling that there are more of them than you. More creative thinking is called for. SCORPIO (Oct 24-Nov 21): Generally speaking, it’s bad for the mind to follow any instructions too closely. And if there’s such a thing as a recipe for good relationships, follow it loosely and recklessly. SAGITTARIUS (Nov 22-Dec 21): Ask for what you need; reward what you get; promote the loyal; ban the disloyal. These are the workings of power on every level, from the kindergarten playground to the high-tower capitals. CAPRICORN (Dec 22-Jan 19): The authority lays down dogma. It is their job to make it seem like this thing they are saying or doing is incontrovertibly true. It is your job to assure that this is not so. AQUARIUS (Jan 20-Feb 18): Deja vu? You’ve seen this one before. The faces may be different, but the situation is the same. Knowing what you know, you can change the outcome if you like. PISCES (Feb 19-Mar 20): When it comes to humans, neutrality is a myth. A neutral eye, opinion or party is nowhere to be found. There are only more or less biased people to seek feedback from. Proceed advisedly.

Young stars shine

Tyler Leonard had a successful weekend at the Ashburton Trust Junior Open.

PHOTO ADAM BURNS 251020-AB-1196

By Adam Burns adam.b@theguardian.co.nz

Home court advantage came to fruition for the Mid Canterbury young guns during the first major tournament over the long weekend The locals did the business at the Ashburton Trust Junior Open, which began on Saturday, with a handful of the district’s promi-

nent juniors finishing on the podium. More than 100 players were on display for the three-day tourney which was greeted with scorching conditions on the opening day. Tyler Leonard, who is largely seen as the one who may take up the mantle from the departed Diego Quispe-Kim, stormed his way to dual trophies in both the under-16/18s singles and doubles events.

Coming in as top seed, Leonard did not drop a set en route to his singles win, courtesy of victories over Jackson Wright (6-0, 6-0), Ben Sinclair (6-2, 6-0) and second seed Luca Landells (6-2, 6-2) in the finals. Thirteen-year-old Jake Parsons continued his ascent, clinching the under-14 boys singles before he and Drew Gilbert finished as runners-up in the doubles. The pair went down to a fellow

local in the decider as Ollie Bubb took out the under-14s boys doubles alongside Ryan Watt 6-1, 6-1. Bubb also finished on the podium in the singles with a third place finish. It did not stop there, as Josh Gilbert secured the under-12s singles title with Ashton Cromie finishing in third spot. Holly-Jayne Feutz also got on the act, with third place finishes in both the under-14 girls sin-

gles and the doubles with Angel Spooner. “We also had a great showing from many other Ace players who are improving at rapid pace so well done to all players,” Mid Canterbury Tennis head coach Jack Tiller said. “As a coach it is great to see all the players’ hard work paying off on the court. “It was a pleasure to watch them all play.”
