It doesn’t seem fair

Ronald McDonald House rules and fundraising concerns upset Mid Cantabrians Patricia McLaren is one of life’s good sorts. The Ashburton grandmother has proven that by raising $35,000 for Ronald McDonald House in Christchurch to help part fund accommodation for sick Ashburton kids and their families. Wrong. McLaren’s money doesn’t appear to have gone to Ashburton children or families because they’re no longer eligible to stay at the charity house.

Large turnout likely for reunion went to Ashburton College in a particular year. Some familiar names of students who’ve registered are John Hooper, Garry Hampton, Ray and Pam McCormick, Gavin Douglas, Marg and Bob Verrall, Alister Argyle and Ian Edward. Two former students, Belinda Cimino and Trudy Longson, now living in Australia, are keen to come if they can be included in an Australia/New Zealand bubble by May. The reunion will begin with a mix and mingle at the MSA on May 7, with several activities based at Ashburton College the following day. They include college tours, attending the First XV rugby game between Ashburton College and Marlborough Boys’ at midday, a briefing on the college rebuild project, official photographs in the afternoon, and a dinner with entertainment, speeches and guest speaker at night. A special feature will be the Memories Section during the evening. Falloon is offering each attendee the opportunity to provide the name of one or two people from the 1965-’75 era, now deceased. The names and details will be screened in a visual montage. “The reunion is for those who remember their school years with affection and would like to connect with classmates they’ve lost contact with,” Falloon said. “It’ll be a pleasant and memorable weekend. “We’re considering a further, similar style reunion within the next 10 years.”

Shirley Falloon is delighted with the response to the reunion celebrating Ashburton College’s First 10 Years. Falloon was hoping for a response of around 200 people to the May 7-8 event but now anticipates about 250 former students and staff will attend. With registrations closing on April 23, she has already received 185 expressions of interest from throughout New Zealand and even two from Australia. The reunion was launched early this year and after utilising the Ashburton Guardian, Facebook, and word of mouth, Falloon has been busy for weeks receiving calls, letters and emails and sending out registration forms. “We haven’t had a reunion of this kind for some time and the May 7-8 weekend will draw former students from Ashburton College, Ashburton High School and Ashburton Technical College,” she said. Falloon points out it isn’t limited to students and staff who attended college from 1965 to 1975, but is available to those who were students at either Ashburton High or Technical College prior to those dates. “If you’d like to come you’re very welcome. “We’d love to find out the oldest living student and encourage them to attend the reunion,” Falloon said. She is gratified that a number are arranging their own reunions of classmates who

NZTA reconsiders weigh station location By Jonathan Leask jonathan.l@theguardian.co.nz

A proposed heavy vehicle weigh station on State Highway 1 is still in the works, but the location is being reconsidered. NZTA announced in 2019 its plan to install a weigh right station just north of the Rakaia River Bridge on crown land between the bridge and the rail overbridge. That plan is now on hold.

Ashburton Mayor Neil Brown raised the issue at last week’s council meeting during a briefing on NZTA projects by NZTA upgrade programme team leader Mike Blyleven. Brown said he understood the project has been put on hold and NZTA was looking at another site and if there was any update. Blyleven said he did not have any update on the project other than the fact NZTA have had a rethink on the original site.

“They have taken a restock of their thinking around [the original site] and they are looking at alternative sites,” he said. The Rakaia site was chosen, NZTA said at the time, because it could not be avoided by truckies as there were no alternative routes. However, concerns were raised that it would create significant road safety issues. The Ashburton and Selwyn district councils both raised con-

cerns over the location and trucking industry representatives were against the location. Those concerns appear to have been heard with NZTA reconsidering where the proposed weigh station should now be located. An NZTA spokeswoman said that no decisions have been made at this stage. “Options for the weigh station will be reviewed over the next few months and in the meantime Waka Kotahi has been working

collaboratively with the Police to find a pragmatic, safe and workable solution for both northbound and southbound commercial operators. “Waka Kotahi wants the weigh station/s to be as safe as they can be, which may mean there is one for north travelling traffic and one for south, avoiding a need for traffic to turn right across the highway. “That is still being worked through.”

In brief

Charity’s distance rule penalises families By Maddison Gourlay maddison.g@theguardian.co.nz

An Ashburton grandmother is stunned to discover that the $35,000 she’s raised for Ronald McDonald House has never gone to local families. Patricia McLaren is one of many who frequently fundraise for Ronald McDonald House in Christchurch. Ronald McDonald House is a charity set-up that helps families away from home with a hospitalised child, providing free accommodation and support services. It relies heavily on the fundraising goodwill of people like McLaren, who spent six years diligently supporting the house, wrongly thinking those efforts would help Mid Cantabrians. “I’m very disappointed,’’ McLaren said. “Twelve years ago, my daughter-in-law could stay there and she lived in Tinwald. It’s not good to hear that wouldn’t be able to happen now.’’ The Ronald McDonald South Island website states only families that live 100km or more away, and who needed to travel so their child could receive treatment in Christchurch, were eligible to stay. McLaren was aware of others in Ashburton that had also been generous with their donations to Ronald McDonald House. She now wants that travel distance ruling changed to include all of Ashburton, which was about 83km from the hospital. “I think that perhaps if people live in the 100km radius it should go under review of hardship or go on a case-by-case basis,” McLaren said. Unfortunately, that eligibility distance from the hospital does not appear to be under review any time soon.

Haystack arson

Gemma Huggins and wee smiling Jasper are happy to be finally settling in at home. Ronald McDonald House South Island chief executive officer, Mandy Kennedy, certainly did not indicate a change to that criteria in a written response to Guardian questions. Kennedy explained that the distance criteria was only one of the conditions applied to families and that they were following the Ministry of Health’s national travel assistance programme rules. The Guardian simply wanted to know if that distance criteria would be reviewed, which is what Methven’s Gemma Huggins would also love to see happen.

After giving birth to her third child six weeks early in November and needing care in Christchurch Women’s NICU (Neonatal Intensive Care Unit), Huggins was not eligible to stay at the house because her family lived about 90km away, just short of the 100km eligibility radius. Attempts by her and social workers to get into Ronald McDonald House failed. Huggins’ situation was more complicated because she only had her learner’s driving licence. She moved between her mother’s house in Kaiapoi and her mother-in-law’s

in Redwood, with her husband and other children back in Methven. Staying in Redwood meant she had to take two buses to get to the hospital, with lots of walking, which was no easy task for someone who had undergone surgery after giving birth. “[I was] emotionally and mentally exhausted, I was buggered,’’ Huggins said, still frustrated at the Ronald McDonald House stance. “In the end, it was three weeks, but it was the longest three weeks. It sounds like a short amount of time, but it just took forever.’’

A haystack fire at a farm in Eiffelton is believed to have been deliberately lit. Ashburton Police are appealing for information from residents following Sunday’s blaze with a large and expensive clean-up job continuing. A stack of 1000 square bales valued at $40,000 was engulfed in flames at Longbeach Farm Estate in Eiffelton. Fire and Emergency and Police responded to the fire near the intersection of Lower Beach and Windermere Roads at 4.30am. Police are wanting to hear from anyone who might have information concerning suspicious people or vehicles in the area leading up to the fire.

Hinds crash Emergency services responded to the scene of a crash near Hinds at around 3.05pm on Saturday. Police were notified of a single vehicle accident on the Rangitata Highway and a police spokesman said there were no reported injuries following the incident. St John communications advisor Gerard Campbellsaid a patient was assessed and treated at the scene.

Record crowds at Methven show By Jonathan Leask jonathan.l@theguardian.co.nz

The Methven showgrounds were swelling with a record crowd at the 106th Methven A&P Show on Saturday. After missing out last year due to Covid-19, Methven certainly made up for it with vice-president Ben McIntosh estimating a record crowd of around 7000 packed into the showgrounds. “We don’t have the official gate taking yet, but it was an incredible turnout and just a good day all round,” he said. “There had to be around 7000 people at the showgrounds.” The public car park filled before midday and they had to then utilise the dog trial area. Once that filled up parking had to spill over into the Methven Domain – a first for the Methven Show, McIntosh said – at 2pm. “We couldn’t believe the gate takings.” Inside there was a constant wave of people circulating the show ring, with plenty to see and do. The inaugural Ute Muster and a vintage machinery auction have been credited with helping pull in a bigger crowd. McIntosh said there were other factors as well, with people just wanting to get out and about after Covid-19 with a lot of people coming from out of town, and the district, to spend a day at the show. “I just think a lot of people wanted to get and about, and the committee is pretty happy so many chose to come to the show.” The show also benefited from competition-starved entrants in several categories. “The wood chop would have had the biggest number of axe men we have had. “We had to get more chopping blocks in to cover it.” There were big numbers in the show ring, with a lot of extra entries following the cancellation of the Horse of the Year, the shearing shed was full and the young farmers competition were among the other crowd pleasers, McIntosh said, with standing room only in the wine and food area for most of the day. “There were also 10 traction engines which is a few more than normal, and more than 20 clydesdales, so it was a pretty impressive grand parade.” It all made for a big day at the Methven Show, and gives McIntosh the unenviable task of going bigger and better next year.

Crumpy ute steals the show A ute to rival that from the famous Barry Crump Toyota Hilux ads caught the eye of many at the inaugural Methven Ute Muster. Held as part of the Methven A&P Show, the muster attracted more than 100 entries and $5000 of sponsors’ prizes, ensuring it will now become a regular event. The 1994 Hilux, nicknamed “Crumpy” was entered by secondary school student Craig Glass. His parents Adam and Katherine Glass run a dairy farm near Methven but it was on another Glass property at Geraldine, where a staff member rolled the ute, that it obtained its asymmetrical appearance. While no longer roadworthy, Craig Glass has since modified it with “genuine Toyota parts”, including two planks of wood used as a makeshift driver’s side door, latched with a chain. The ute has also lost its deck, has no passenger seat, and has tyres of different widths. PHOTO HEATHER CHALMERS

A day for gifted students What the children think

By Malcolm Hopwood

MindPlus is the best day of the week for up to 60 Mid Canterbury students. The programme for gifted students who need further advancement and support in education has received $12,000 from Advance Ashburton in its latest funding round. The programme is hosted by the Ashburton Christian School and attended by students from 14 Mid Canterbury schools who spend one day a week in personal, talent and conceptual development. The programme, which costs $100 a day, is partly funded by the New Zealand Centre for Gifted Education, with financial support from the government, private businesses, charitable trusts and local and national groups. Despite that, there’s still a shortfall in funding and the Advance Ashburton grant will go towards families who could not otherwise afford the programme for their children. Ashburton Christian School principal, Tim Kuipers, said the programme “pushes their thinking in ways that advances their gifts”. “They feel they can be themselves in the classroom environment.” He explains the students, from years 3 to 8, are involved in personal development that helps

He regards MindPlus as so important that his school and others have taken some of the principles and applied them in their own regular classrooms. “I’m very thankful for the generous support from advance Ashburton,” Kuipers said.

They are: ■■ Ashburton Parents Centre ■■ Wellbeing Opuke ■■ Hospice Mid Canterbury ■■ MindPlus ■■ Ashburton Plunket Centre ■■ Rakaia Community Cupboard

■■ Friends of the Ashburton Hospital ■■ Road Safety Education ■■ Rural Drivers Licence Scheme ■■ Mid Canterbury Youth Charitable Trust.

Necklace scoops award By Adam Burns adam.b@theguardian.co.nz

A slice of Kiwi resourcefulness, delivered with a sense of humour. These were the footnotes of judges for the big award winner as the Ashburton Art Gallery hosted its fifth Zonta Awards evening. A record breaking number of entries were whittled down to 24 finalists for Friday’s event with Christchurch’s Jacquelyn Greenbank taking out the premier award. Her work As Good as Ten Mothers comprised of a necklace of 10 life-like garlic bulbs, carved from a wooden bowling ball and strung together with a harakeke tie. Greenbank was lost for words when toasting her win. “I’m speechless ... it was a pretty hard choice,” she said. The piece alluded to the superstition of wearing garlic around one’s neck to ward off disease. She was awarded a cash prize of $3500 and granted an opportunity to create a solo exhibition at the gallery next year. The other big winner on the night was 16-year-old Mia Heywood who won the Young Generation Award for her gothic-tinged photographic piece Memento. “It was so hard choosing what work I wanted to send in,” she said.

Call for Walnut Ave tenders It’s been years in the planning, but the deal to install traffic signals at the Walnut Avenue intersection with State Highway One is moving off the drawing board and onto the road. The NZ Transport Agency is calling tenders for the construction of lights at the intersections of Walnut Avenue with East Street and State Highway One, work that will be funded as part of the NZ Upgrade Programme. Ashburton is one of three Canterbury areas to benefit from the $34 million government cash injection and will effectively double dip, with funds also allocated to the Tinwald Corridor project. West Melton is the third area included in the fund. The Walnut Avenue intersections project includes replacement of existing roundabouts at the intersections of State Highway One and Walnut Avenue and Walnut Avenue and East Street. A new rail level crossing and improved pedestrian and cycling facilities will also be part of the work and the co-ordination of both sets of traffic signals with the railway barriers will make the intersection safer for all road and rail users. The Ashburton project is among a list of 20 that will part of the government’s NZ Upgrade Programme (NZUP) with Walnut Avenue the first in the South Island to get under way. Construction is expected to begin around June 2021 and will take about 18 months to complete.

Recycling’s ‘best month yet’ By Jonathan Leask jonathan.l@theguardian.co.nz

Mid Canterbury had its best month of recycling since the Ashburton District Council began auditing kerbside collections in August last year. Council infrastructure services group manager, Neil McCann, said the contamination rate for February was 2.4 per cent – “our best result yet and one of the best results in the country”. “While this number may fluctuate over the coming months, the council’s aim is to keep below five per cent,” McCann said. “[The council] is in a unique position of not having to send most of our recycling to landfill

because of excellent results we are seeing in contamination. “Council firmly believes, as has been experienced around the country, that best results are achieved by continuous auditing which the council will continue

to perform.” The number of properties on the watch list has also improved and levelled out, he said, as properties begin to adhere to best practices. In the latest figures, out of 11,250 properties there are 123 properties that have had their yellow bins removed and 15 that have had their bin returned after confiscation. If a bin is removed from a property, the resident has to contact the council to have it returned, and this will only be done after an education process had been undertaken. There are 278 properties on a second strike and 1341 on their first strike. The monitoring was intro-

duced after the changes in recycling collection, with only plastics numbered 1, 2, or 5 being accepted, and when a load of recycling is contaminated and rejected it costs ratepayers an additional $1000 to be redirected to landfill. “We have also seen improvements in the type of common contamination items. “Food and sanitary waste have now become rare occurrences. However, common items of contamination include soft plastics, lids, toys, clothing and electrical appliances,” McCann said Comparatively, the Christchurch City Council also had its best month in February but still had 11 per cent of its recycling sent to landfill – 25 loads out of 140.

Big dollars, big projects, even bigger plans By Sue Newman sue.n@theguardian.co.nz

Property owners might be forking out more than $40 million next year in rates, but it was the proposed expenditure of $5 million on water meters that had residents firing at the first community meeting on the Ashburton District’s long-term spending plan. Monday night’s meeting saw 20 members of the public turn out to listen to mayor Neil Brown and council staff talk through the draft long-term plan, explaining what would be spent, where and why. And while most of the expenditure was accepted, the need for water meters and the implication that the days of free use might be over, had some people worried. Brown, however, made it very clear at the outset that the current council did not intend to use those meters to charge consumers for the water they used. The meters were about identifying leaks in the system, he said. “We could be losing up to 50 per cent of our drinking water through leaks and by having water meters on every property we

Neil Brown will be able to detect any abnormal use and fix the leaks.” The council had two options around meter installation – spread the costs over three years or do it in one year. The other option would be the status quo. The use of meters to track ‘missing water’ was tested in Mayfield and a major leak was identified, When this was repaired, consumption in the village was significantly reduced. Other key projects included in the plan are extending the Ashburton north-west waste water service, work on the Ashburton relief sewer, the second Ashburton River bridge, improvements

at the Resource Recovery Park and the Ashburton Domain development plan. The council’s debt currently sits at $96 million and will peak at $166 million in 2026/2027, but with an upper limit of $233 million, this was still an acceptable debt level, business support group manager Paul Brake said. “Our debt levels are pretty conservative. Over 10 years, it’s quite sustainable and it comes down after years six and seven.” Over the next 10 years, rates will rise by an average of 4.3 per cent. Next year’s rise will be an average of 6.28 per cent across the district. The future of the district’s drinking water supplies are now in uncertain territoriy with the government’s Three Waters project now on the table. This could see the ownership, and management of the district’s drinking, waste and storm water move out of council hands into the hands of a large government funded entity. In terms of the first three years of the long-term plan, however, the council will continue in a business as usual mode with planned upgrades on its water infrastructure.

The long-term plan was a very strong statement that the Ashburton District was changing and growing and it was important the council planned in a way that would take advantage of that, Brown said. “But the plan is a bit like a household shopping list, you only include what you need. We think we have the balance right, but if there are things you want included or things you don’t think should be in there, let us know,” he said. The council had one of its largest ever capital works programmes over the next 10 years and there was also plenty coming at it from Wellington with the government giving it plenty to think about with climate change, three waters, the National Policy statement on freshwater and RMA reforms, Brown said. “In short, we have a lot of work to get through.” Community meetings will run over the next two weeks and submissions can be made during April. These will be heard on May 11 and 12. Councillors will then take these into account as they develop the final plan. This will be signed off by June 30.

Budding artists share skills A group of budding artists have shared their skills with the local community as they celebrated their first pop-up exhibition at the Ashburton Art Gallery recently. The young artists are part of the Takiwatanga Ashburton for Kids with Autism (T.A.K.A) group, which hosts a weekly ‘Artism’ class where tamariki can come together to korero and create. Celia Colcord, co-founder of T.A.K.A and team leader for Mana Ake – Stronger for Tomorrow, said the idea for a support group came about when she noticed several of the requests for support she received through Mana Ake were for children who were diagnosed with autism, or who were going through the diagnoses process. Autism spectrum disorder is a neuro-developmental condition that affects social and communication skills. The traits associated with autism span a wide spectrum and lead to a different way of seeing the world and interacting with others. “I set up an optional support group for parents of children with autism spectrum disorder and that developed into T.A.K.A, with the support of co-founder Marie Maeva,” Colcord said. “We noticed that a number of the children enjoyed art and from there a weekly art group, Artism, was established.” Doubling as an opportunity for social learning, friendship building and group support, Artism meets every Monday at the He Waka Tapu office in Ashburton. Children in the group range from five to 16 years old. “The meetings are a huge success because the children just understand and accept each other. While they’re focusing on art, we can also talk about friendships and provide some strategies around social interactions.” The exhibition, held on March 13-1, was a resounding success. “Everyone loved seeing their work in the gallery and there was a real sense of unity among the group,” Colcord said. This isn’t the first time the group has shared their creations with the world – last year they created a Christmas window display in Ashburton.

McAlwee qualifies for Young Farmer final Mid Canterbury assistant dairy manager Dale McAlwee has been crowned Aorangi FMG Young Farmer of the Year in his first attempt at the regional final in Methven. He now heads to the grand final in Christchurch in July to battle it out for the FMG Young Farmer of the Year national title. As a first-time competitor and member of the Pendarves club, McAlwee said there wasn’t any part of the day where he didn’t learn something new. McAlwee is an assistant manager at Singletree Dairies, a 2500 cow farm with 12 staff near Fairton. He said that he felt his job prepared him for a lot of what the competition threw at him, in particular his experience with the people and health and safety side of the competition. “Working on such a large operation has given me a good base of knowledge around everything, especially the people aspect of farming, which really helped me.” Now in his third season at Singletree, McAlwee aims to get into contract milking, then sharemilking with an eventual goal of farm ownership. He secured an early lead after the practical day, ending up 38 points ahead of runner-up, Jason Erasmus, of Cave, South Canterbury, at the conclusion of the quiz. In third place was Lachlan Angland, who works on an arable farm at Dorie. While McAlwee admitted his burger cooking in the head-to-head left something to be desired, he said he was pleased with his performance despite facing some challenges. “Boning out a shoulder without making a hash of it was probably the hardest part of the day. But I think being in the limelight was challenging as well, it’s not something I’m used to,” he said. McAlwee won three of the four pillars the contest was based around – innovation and technology, environment and food – while Angland won the people segment.

In brief Pool closure The paddling pool in the Ashburton Domain has been temporarily closed due to broken glass being found in and around the pool. The work being undertaken to clean up the glass is being carried out as regular maintenance by the council’s open spaces crew. While they have the pool drained, they will also take the opportunity to inspect seals to ensure additional maintenance is performed as needed. The pool is expected to open later this week, subject to seals checking out all good.

PHOTO SUPPLIED “I really enjoyed the WorkSafe module, there was a fair bit of technology involved and it was a module that really got me thinking,” McAlwee said. “I didn’t expect to win today, I came in with zero expectations, so I think I need to focus on relaxing a bit and getting as prepared as I can before the grand finals. I’ve got a good base of farming experience to fall back on,” he said. Runner-up, Jason Erasmus, of the Mackenzie club, was also a first-time regional finalist. Third placegetter Lachlan Angland said he was proud of fellow Pendarves Young Farmers club member, McAlwee for his win, and ‘stoked’ with placing third. “It was really exciting to see the Pendarves club perform so strongly this year. This is my first time at regionals. The breadth of knowledge you need for this competition is huge, so I think I could have studied harder, but all in all, the day was a success,” he said.

The eight regional finalists competed in eight modules and battled it out headto-head in two time and point races at the Methven A&P Showgrounds. The two head-to-heads involved making a tree guard, reassembling a chainsaw and cutting wood, lighting a fire and cooking a burger. A written exam, as well as the famous buzzer quiz also tested the regional finalists’ knowledge. The event was convened by Todd McConnell from Hinds Young Farmers’ Club. “We had an amazing team around us to put this event on. There are always challenges with running an event alongside the Methven A&P Show, but it was a fantastic opportunity to really raise the profile of the competition. We had a really good crowd of spectators,” McConnell said. The 53rd season of the contest was much awaited after the remainder of the 2020 contest season was cancelled amidst the Covid-19 lockdown last year.

Mount Hutt pair take out Teen Ag title A duo from Mount Hutt College have taken out the title for FMG Aorangi Junior Young Farmer of the Year 2021. Sophie Atkins and Eddie Millichamp topped the points table for the regional competition. The contest, for secondary school students in Teen Ag Clubs, was held at the Methven A&P Show, running alongside the Aorangi FMG Young Farmer of the Year regional finals. The duo was “pretty pleased” with their win, with their preparation work before the competition paying off. “It was a really enjoyable day, the modules were all really fun and educational. The coolest thing was learning what a capon is,” Eddie said. “We tried to prepare as much as we could. We looked at the tips and tricks we got and did a lot of research on different companies.

People who come across wandering dogs or witness dangerous canine behaviour in their neighbourhood are being urged to make the council’s Animal Control service their first port of call. The Ashburton District Council provides a 24 hour, seven day a week Animal Control service to respond to complaints right around the district, and all residents need to do to access the Jane Donaldson service is call the council on 03 307 7700. Council strategy and compliance group manager, Jane Donaldson said there has been a trend of residents using social media community pages to make complaints, but these are not the right channels to appropriately address animal control matters.

CBD upgrade The Ashburton District Council’s CBD streetscape contractor, Tru-Line Civil has finished installing underground drinking water pipes in the Burnett Street footpaths and will be working overnight on Wednesday to hook these up with the East Street ones at the intersection. A water shutdown is planned from 11pm until the early hours of Thursday. While the night work is under way, East Street will be temporarily closed to southbound traffic between Havelock and Tancred Streets from 7pm until 5am, as will Burnett Street from Cass Street right through to East Street. The East Street railway pedestrian crossing at the public toilets remains closed at this time while the new wooden deck and concrete ramp are constructed, but visitors can still access the West Street carpark from the Tancred Street crossing.

Peas for Africa

South Island Seed Dressing managing director Brent Clarke (far right) checks the final details before the first of 25 containers or 500 tonnes of Canterbury-grown peas head to Lyttelton port on the company’s container trucks destined for North Africa. The big export pea consignment was made up of 20,000 bags of garden type peas, equivalent to 25 container loads. These peas were all grown in Canterbury, then cleaned and treated by Ashburton-based South Island Seed Dressing. Clarke said this had become a regular market for New Zealand-grown peas and was a good rotational crop option for Canterbury’s arable farmers. Most of the peas will be for “fresh pick” markets in north Africa, Clarke said. PHOTO SUPPLIED

Long-time exhibitors were rewarded with wins for best meat and wool breed sheep at the weekend’s Methven A&P Show. Julian Chamberlain, of Alford Forest, who won champion meat breed ram with his south suffolk ram lamb, said he exhibited every year at the show. His family always exhibited south suffolk sheep and horses, he said. “My wife Lyn exhibits cobs and my daughter Emily rides in the hunter section.” The family have a small block at Alford Forest where they finish cattle and run their 40-yearold Capehorne south suffolk stud.

Two Great Reasons

His late wife Margaret had claimed them “and we went from there”. Methven A&P Show sheep convener Ben Streeter said fewer sheep entries were a reflection of land use change on the Mid Canterbury plains. “There are still sheep on the plains, but they are more trading stock, rather than for breeding. “It’s important to have sheep at the show and people like to look at them.” In a major fundraiser for the Methven A&P Association, 55 gift lambs and 40 gift calves donated by farmers were auctioned during Saturday’s show.

“My great grandfather bred shorthorn cattle and my father bred hereford cattle from the 1960s, so breeding stud stock is in the family.” The family previously used to have a larger farm in North Canterbury. Jim Stewart, of Rakaia, won champion wool breed sheep with his black and coloured ram. Breeding black and coloured sheep since 1965, he exhibited at the Methven show every year. “Before me, my father showed south suffolks and border leicesters.” The stud started when he bought a line of store lambs, of which five were coloured.

Groundswell meeting in Ashburton By Heather Chalmers heather.c@theguardian.co.nz

A farmer group formed to urge the government to take a more practical approach to freshwater rules is holding a meeting in Ashburton next month. Groundswell NZ grew out of a protest late last year when 120 tractors were driven down Gore’s main street in response to new freshwater regulations. Spokesman Laurie Paterson said that while Groundswell was founded by a group of Southland farmers, farmers across the country were affected by the rules, which came into force last September. It is holding a meeting at the Ashburton Trust Event Centre on Monday, April 12, starting at 7.30pm. Groundswell founders Paterson and Bryce McKenzie, who organised the Gore protest, will address the meeting. Speakers also include Jane Smith, a North Otago farmer, environmentalist and “advocate for common sense”. Jamie McFadden, of Hurunui, who leads the Rural Advocacy Network, will discuss the impli-

Environment Minister David Parker has recognised there are workability issues with the proposed freshwater regulations. cations of the biodiversity national policy statement. The network was started in 2017 by a group of North Canterbury farmers who felt that their voices were not being heard by regulators and compliance officials. Meetings are also planned in Amberley, Greymouth and Fox Glacier. A meeting at Waimumu, near Gore in February attracted 700

farmers. Groundswell has asked for the national policy statement for freshwater management to be rewritten based on science and best practice for each catchment and farm, rather than adopting a national blanket approach. “The government should be getting behind a more catchment and farm-based approach and making it work rather than trying to introduce an EU-type

regulatory regime that is taking money away that could be spent on improvements and biodiversity.” The pace and extent of change required by government regulations was putting a lot of pressure on farmers. Farmers were all environmentalists and wanted to improve water quality and their farms, Paterson said. Groundswell and Federated Farmers welcomed a government move to delay intensive winter grazing rules taking effect until May 1, 2022. “Environment Minister David Parker has recognised workability issues need to be sorted, and that extra time is vital to ensure we get this right,” federation water spokesman and Mid Canterbury farmer Chris Allen said. “This is not kicking for touch. The minister has accepted a commitment from regional councils and the farming sector to use this time to develop, test and deploy an intensive winter grazing module and practices that will ultimately be a part of a certified freshwater farm plan.” There was universal recognition that the Essential Freshwater national rules had a number

Dirty ute shines at show

The winner of best shepherd’s ute at the Methven Ute Muster was Quintin Pannett, who works on his family’s mixed sheep and cropping farm at Lauriston. The spotlights are used for rabbit shooting and checking sheep at night. Pannett said he didn’t do anything special before entering it. “I haven’t even cleaned it.” Held as part of the Methven A&P Show, the muster attracted more than 100 entries and $5000 of sponsors’ prizes, ensuring it will now become a regular event.

of unworkable parts. The parts that relate to the regulation of intensive winter grazing were one of the first ones to take effect and therefore needed urgent attention, Allen said. Ashburton District Mayor Neil Brown has met Agricultural Minister Damien O’Connor and Environment Minister David Parker to discuss the freshwater policy and its impact on the district. Parker recognised some of the policy was unworkable and said there would be some changes. The Ministry for the Environment will work with the council and regional council to find a way forward to continue the traction the district has already gained on the issues. A hui for all stakeholders was planned. “I see hope out there and that’s better than what we thought,” Brown said. An Ashburton District Council report conservatively estimated that collectively, farm profitability across the district will decline $57.9 million (or 83 per cent) per year, while farm expenditure within the district will also decline by $139.9m (or 23 per cent) as a result of the freshwater reforms.

Ashburton Guardian Wednesday, March 24, 2021

OUR VIEW

The Guardian – your community leader By Daryl Holden daryl.h@theguardian.co.nz

e promised to be a community leader – and not just report the news – and that’s why we will continue to offer so much more than any other media player in the district. No question. A striking example of that leadership position was captured in Saturday’s publication about the Guardian-inspired community call to arms to keep the much-loved Ashburton Parents’ Centre open. Our plea to help was answered in fine style by you, our loyal readers and supporters. But it only took place as it had to because the parents’ centre needed $1900 in a matter of days to stay afloat, to be able to keep running free antenatal and parenting classes as they’d been doing almost every day for 32 years. Without that cash, the non-profit organisation would have had to shut their doors possibly for good, thereby denying a crucial educational and support outlet for new and expectant parents that thousands of you would have leaned on and looked to. But, in less than a day, and after a rival publication had tried with little impact, more than double the funds needed were raised by a whole host of community supporters. Some were business owners. Others were individuals just wanting to help. Many preferred to donate under the guise of anonymity. The story wasn’t about them, some said, it was about a community pulling together because the Guardian had asked us to. Yes, we asked. And, yes, you responded in such a generous fashion. That revealed two things. Firstly, that Ashburton is every inch the caring, close knit community I had heard it was. And, secondly, that the Guardian is so much more than a newspaper or multi-media organisation that covers the news. Your response reminded us again that we have a significant community leadership role to play to make our town and district an even better place than it already clearly is. And that’s why we will always strive to do our best to focus on community involvement. Doing so, would continue to distinguish us from what others may call opposition publications. Importantly, it would also provide our special district the ultimate value and return. The resuscitated Ashburton Parents’ Centre would no doubt agree.

YOUR VIEW Ashburton District Plan consultation As a Methven ratepayer I became enraged when the council let it be known that their draft long term plan provides for a 14.88 per cent rates rise next year with nearly 28 per cent cumulative over the next three years. A public meeting in Methven was attended by nearly 100 inquisitive ratepayers and the mayor and council staff were kind enough to attend and to invite submissions to the plan which was then just a draft. On Wednesday I watched the council meeting online and developed a deep sympathy for the councillors, who had been

provided the draft they were expected to vote on 10 minutes before the meeting. They did well picking up some errors in detail but then voted to adopt the plan. The council asked what would happen if they did not adopt it, and were assured the council would be in trouble with central government and the audit office. Between a rock and a hard place. But it was okay as there is a public consultation planned with meetings throughout the district scheduled for this week. The council were told that the full plan would be available on the ADC website from Friday 19th and so the interested public would have time to review the plan, and that the full plan would be posted to all house-

holds prior to the meetings. Sadly the plan is not on the ADC website, there are numerous other documents there, many riddled with errors and idiocies, but no long-term plan. From the council’s own meeting notes the plan is based on some odd assumptions like; • Population growth will fall from a long term average of 2 per cent to 1 per cent, a shortfall of $6-700k/ year cumulative. • Falling heavy vehicle use of our roading network against historically rising usage. • Depreciation schedules well in excess of capital costs and maintenance requirements. I think the mayor should require the meetings be delayed until there is time for ratepayers

OPINION 13

A way forward on intensive winter grazing A

dvocacy on freshwater regulations, led by Federated Farmers Southland vice-president Bernadette Hunt and the Feds policy team, in collaboration with Team Ag and regional councils, has led to an outcome farmers can work with. Environment Minister David Parker and Agriculture Minister Damien O’Connor announced on March 17 that the new intensive winter grazing (IWG) rules would be parked until May next year while work is accelerated by the sector on an IWG module and improved practices that ultimately will be part of a certified freshwater farm plan (FFP). If we get this right, there’s the strong prospect that certified FFPs will replace the need for consents and that the government will drop impractical sowing dates and pugging rules from the NPS regulations. And from Minister O’Connor the next day, speaking by Zoom to the Beef + Lamb AGM in Invercargill, came recognition that changes are also needed in regard to low slope and the contentious maps. “Clearly [these will be] more than tweaks,” the minister said. Whilst it’s frustrating that we’ve endured months of angst, not to mention countless hours of work by farming sector and local

By William Beetham FROM THE FARM authority policy people, over regulations that as drafted were unworkable, it’s important we understand the pressures around environmental and animal welfare performance that are being placed on our farming businesses by market demands and the public. So, let’s look forward rather than back. The government is recognising it is the farmers themselves who will make a difference on the ground, and the outcomes all New Zealanders want will be achieved by working with farmers, and regional councils, on a catchment by catchment basis rather than foisting blanket rules on us. This is an exciting opportunity for our industry to meet our challenges head-on. Let’s embrace the fact that the world cannot get enough of the quality, sustainable food we produce, and New Zealanders recognise, support and even celebrate NZ farmers because of this. But we cannot drop the ball. No further degradation of waterways

remains a bottom line for this government and New Zealanders. Social media was alive after the minister’s announcement with environmentalists crying foul, one posting “Govt run by toothless ministers with the polluting industries’ best interests at heart”. The spotlight is firmly on all farmers to get winter grazing practices right; in our connected world all New Zealand will be watching. If we continue to have farmers not following best practice on winter grazing, then we will again face the reality of

unworkable regulations in 2022. Minister O’Connor also cautioned that adverse animal welfare outcomes – cows without a dry space to lie on – will be pursued “and there will be prosecutions”. Congratulations to the Southland Advisory Group. This collaborative work by representatives of Federated Farmers, DairyNZ, Beef + Lamb, Fish and Game, iwi and Environment Southland paved the way for this progress on IWG. Like He Waka Eke Noa, it shows that when given an opportunity to

deliver solutions that work both for farmers and the environment, we’ll continue to lead the way in sustainable quality food production that benefits all New Zealand.

Why eating everything is actually the healthiest diet

his is the story of a recovered dieter, who found her way out from the deep trap of fad diets and wellness lifestyles into trusting her body and finally claiming back long lost control around food. If it speaks to you, do not ignore it, it’s your body calling for help. When was the last time you felt really good and didn’t have to put any effort into “doing the right things”? Can’t even remember? I had a hard time remembering too. It felt like ages since I didn’t have to “watch” what or how much I ate. But there was a time when I could just eat what I wanted and feel good. It was before I got on the first diet. It’s so long that I barely remember the reason, but I guess, everyone was dieting back then and I wanted to be part of the “club”. To belong somewhere, to have something to talk about, to complain about and something that binds me together with my dieting friends. The first diet was easy, I dropped kilograms like a hot stone, but that’s when it all started. I loved that feeling, those compliments and how it made me feel. I was hooked.

By Vera Prazak

HOLISTICALLY SPEAKING

Jumping from one diet to another, eliminating one food group for a while and then another. It got so far that I didn’t even know what was good and bad anymore. Are we supposed to eat carbs or not? Is eating fat making us fat? Do I really need to eat only meat or is it better to be vegan? It soon became very overwhelming and hard to sustain. My weight was going up and down like a yo-yo and so was my mood. I was irritable, anxious, tired, overwhelmed and most of all confused. What the hell am I supposed to eat? What’s the “right thing” to do? I needed a change of cards. That’s when I discovered “the wellness diet” – you know the saying, this is not a diet it’s a lifestyle. Exactly that. So I jumped on board and started living my

paleo lifestyle. A few months into it I became a vegetarian lifestylist and so on . . . But no change, I still felt out of control around food, I still had the burning desire to eat “forbidden foods” and was finding myself secretly eating food that was not allowed. That’s when I saw the truth light. It wasn’t a lifestyle, it was just another diet just in a fancier package. But what else was I to do? I cannot just give up, I want to be healthy and live a long happy life. But I wasn’t happy dieting and everytime when I reached my goal it didn’t make me any happier either. I did feel a big relief that I did not have to diet again, but only up until I saw my weight on the scale going up again. One day, when I was searching between my “healthy lifestyle” articles I saw something called Intuitive Eating. My initial thought was: “Yeah, right. The hell I won’t just end up eating all the chocolate and chips if I allow myself to eat what I like.” But because I had a nutrition and scientific background and worked with thousands of clients on diets that made them only more miserable when they

stopped working, I had enough proof that diets do not work and wellness lifestyles are not sustainable. I did my research and it all started to click in like lost pieces of a puzzle. I could remember that before my dieting I ate whatever I liked but also that I ate pretty well and did not have any big problems with weight nor mood. So why did I start in the first place? Remember I wanted to belong to the club and thought I can benefit from losing 2kg of weight, so why not if it was meant to be so easy, and then I was hooked . . . Fast forward a year of my life, I gave myself unconditional permission to eat, I waved goodbye to the diets’ mentality and food police in my head and I started to eat everything. Yes, even gluten, meat, fat, butter, everything . . . I did not care if my weight would go up, I was really just tired of dieting and needed to find my way out. And I did. Soon I stopped craving food, I had more energy, my digestion had improved, my mood had stabilised and you know what? My weight is kind of the same, but I do not weigh myself anymore. It’s not important to me. I feel great and I have

more freedom in my life than I ever had before. It has been a few years now, when I can call myself an intuitive eater. So now I can finally bring this into my client practice and teach other women who are done with this way of living to become intuitive eaters, because there is more to life than food. Are you eager to know more and have a good sneak peek into Intuitive Eating? I am holding a free series of 10 days of Intuitive Eating in my FB group, you are welcome to join us and see if IE could be something you would like to give it a go. PS: Intuitive eating is not a diet or lifestyle, it’s a way of getting out of your head and getting back to your body. You have been born an intuitive eater, you just forgot all about it.

ARIES (Mar 21-Apr 19): New relationships have their own special magic, a spark that can largely be created by our fantasies of who we want people to be and who we want ourselves to be. TAURUS (Apr 20-May 20): Of all the notable sounds you’ll hear, the two you’ll enjoy most will be your name on the lips of a delightful someone and the distant low din of life, uninterrupted by anything that requires your attention. GEMINI (May 21-Jun 21): Wanting a particular outcome too badly makes you less aware of the nuances of timing. Help yourself play it cool by doing what it takes to return to a state of relaxed neutrality. CANCER (Jun 22-Jul 22): With sufficient evidence to make your point would the others concede without drama? As everyone has their own opinion about the evidence, the only way to reduce drama is to drop out of the fight. LEO (Jul 23-Aug 22): Items in your everyday life get out of control, seeming to have lives of their own or decaying in some way before your eyes. When the closet and the refrigerator are decluttered, so will be your mind. VIRGO (Aug 23-Sep 22): The easiest people to be around today will be neither related to you nor reminiscent of anyone from your original family. You’ll see another side of yourself because they do. LIBRA (Sep 23-Oct 23): The anchors of life are very useful and can keep you from drifting, emotionally or otherwise, to parts unknown. But you’re supposed to lower them when the ship is at rest, not en route. SCORPIO (Oct 24-Nov 21): With the internet alive and eager with information, you have to be judicious about what you ask. There are things you don’t want to know. Once you learn, you cannot unlearn, so go carefully. SAGITTARIUS (Nov 22-Dec 21): You like the look of the situation and now it’s time to do a deeper dive. Is there substance here to match? If there is, then you’ll know within 10 questions. CAPRICORN (Dec 22-Jan 19): You cannot develop and ignore yourself at the same time. You are a reliable entity who must be listened to, first by you. Put self-approval before validation from others then act on what you approve of. AQUARIUS (Jan 20-Feb 18): Certain individuals seem crystalised against the truths you hold dear. If it were not the case, you wouldn’t have nearly the drive to explore, practice and celebrate this important part of who you are. PISCES (Feb 19-Mar 20): You would rather listen than talk, but what’s out there to listen to today will either be too quiet to hear or, quite frankly, not worth listening to. Take this as an invitation. The world needs your contribution.

McLeod impresses It was only a fleeting foray onto the rugby paddock but there was plenty of positive word around regarding Dallas McLeod’s impact off the bench against the Blues for the Crusaders on Sunday afternoon. The former Mid Cantab gained around 15 minutes of game time in the Crusaders’ victory, and was busy on both defence and played a key role in a critical try which put the match beyond doubt late in the game.

Mountain to climb for AshColl By Matt Markham matt.m@theguardian.co.nz

The Ashburton College 1st XI sit in a precarious state as they prepare to head into the final day of their season in the Canterbury Youth 1st XI Championship against St Andrew’s College. A first innings lead to the Christchurch-based school saw Ashburton asked to bat again on the weekend, but with two men back in the shed already, the fight for even a draw is still a tall hurdle in front of them. Ashburton College won the toss and elected to bat to open the match on Saturday, and only a patient 36 from Angus Jemmett kept them right in the match

again. He and Sam Cuttle put in the early grind at the top of the innings to add 43 before Cuttle departed for 16, and a steady flow of wickets from there saw AshColl all out for 128.

Meanwhile, the Ashburton College Combined 2nd XI racked up a good win on the weekend when they beat the Selwyn District Lions. After being asked to bat first, the Ashburton side put together a tidy 175, with Sonny McMillan grabbing an excellent 56 while Eddie Galbraith (27) and Nick Stringer (26) also made valuable contributions. The side then turn around and rolled their rivals for 156, with Fletcher Hobbs doing the biggest damage, claiming 2/9 off his six overs. The side now has one more match ahead of them for this half of the season.

Allenton roar into final CRICKET

Six-wicket haul including hat-trick for Balkaran Singh By Matt Markham matt.m@theguardian.co.nz

Phase one complete – now it’s final time. And if there’s one thing in favour of Allenton going into this weekend’s Canterbury Country Senior Competition final, it’s momentum. Because they’ve got plenty of it. After at one point of the season looking dead and buried, the Allenton side has resurrected itself to become the team to beat this weekend when they take on Greendale at the Greendale Domain, following their 136-run drubbing of Sefton on Saturday afternoon in North Canterbury. Sefton should have been a tough challenge. They’d only lost one game since Christmas, admittedly against Allenton, and had been marked as the team to beat in the competition. But Allenton dismantled them, methodically. Captain Karmjeet Singh didn’t want to point the finger towards any one

particular moment or player who changed the course of the match, but if he had wanted to, there were plenty of options. It could have been the 58-run opening stand he and Harpreet Singh produced at the top of the innings, to set the tempo for massive first innings total his side set, or it might have been the 74 from Satveer Singh or the quickfire 42 from Manpreet Hakkla. It also could have been the bowling effort of Balkaran Singh, who used the consistency of the artificial wicket with sublime skill to take 6-22 off his almost seven overs including a hat-trick to round out the match. Instead, Singh deflected all his praise to the collective. “As a team, we had a plan and we went out and executed it very well,” he said. “It was a very strong per-

Match-ball for Balkaran Singh.

formance and one that just went to plan. “We wanted to win the toss first and set a big total and we did that, and from then the pressure was on them.” Allenton compiled 251 for nine from their 40 overs in the middle – a total that was always going to be tricky to chase down, even when taking into account the added pressure of knockout cricket. And if they were good with the bat, Allenton were excellent with the ball. Wickets flowed like champagne throughout the innings, with tidy spells from all of their bowlers, but it was Balkaran Singh who turned the match on its head. Introduced at the 10-over mark, he tore the Sefton line-up to bits on his way to taking six wickets in a man-of-the-match performance. With three wickets next to his name, Singh’s figures already looked excellent, but

he put the icing on the cake with a hattrick to remove the last three Sefton batsmen, in the 23rd over. “We celebrated the hat-trick but didn’t realise that there wasn’t another batsman to come out, so it wasn’t for a few minutes until we realised we’d won the game as well,” captain Singh said. The win sent a statement to rivals this week, Greendale, that this Allenton side means business, and if it is to be their last appearance in the Canterbury Country competition before a potential shift to South Canterbury next season, they’re out to end on a high note. “Everyone is very excited about the prospect of the final, and it looks like we will be able to retain most of the team from the weekend too, which is fantastic.” Allenton will travel to the Greendale Domain this weekend for the final. SCOREBOARD

Allenton 251/9 off 50 overs (Satveer Singh 74, Manpreet Hakkla 42, Karmjeet Singh 33) Sefton 115 all out after 23.4 overs (Balkaran Singh 6-22 incl. hat-trick, Satwant Singh 2-25).

Champion pairs found BOWLS

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

Allenton and the Ashburton MSA Bowling clubs were the big winners of Champion of Champions pairs play in Mid Canterbury bowls on the weekend. The two clubs each claimed two of the five titles up for grabs on the day, while host club Methven made sure they called on some local knowledge to pick up the other on what was huge day of bowls under the mountain. Methven picked up their success in the senior women’s title, courtesy of Pat McElwain and Di Callaghan, who won their way through the first two rounds before taking on Ashburton’s Heather Goodall and Diana King in the final, which they won 1915. Ashburton MSA won a straight final in the junior men’s division, with Shane Calder and Trevor Pearce taking on defending champions Wayne Lloyd and Dave McDonnell. The MSA pairing emerged on top after a gripping final to win

by just the one shot, 15-14. The MSA club picked up their second title for the day in the colts pairs, with Gus Hurrell and Russell Ward proving too good for their opposition. They recorded a massive win in the semi-final against Hampstead and then downed Allenton’s Greg Harrison and Lindsay Ford comfortably 20-10 in the final. Allenton, as they usually are, were a force to be reckoned with across all five divisions, and it was their senior men’s pairing of Rodney Greaney and Alex Crawford who led the way. Up against a tough line-up of players from around the district, they picked up wins against MSA and then Methven to book a spot in the final against the Hampstead pairing of Reg McGarry and Regan Broker. The Hampstead duo had downed Rakaia and then Hinds in the morning to work their way through, but were no match for the slick Allenton pair, who won 23-9. Allenton’s second success of the day came in a straight final

of the junior women’s title, with Donalda Watson and Pam Hastie proving a little too classy for Hampstead’s Emma Pritchard and Jaimee Carrodus. Meanwhile, Mid Canterbury locals, Sandra Keith and Annette Sargisson, claimed medals at the Bowls New Zealand National Inter Centre competition in Wellington on the weekend. Playing for Canterbury, the two Allenton Bowling Club members and their team-mates finished third overall at the competition, which pits the best players from each region against each other over an intense few day of bowls. Canterbury pegged themselves as the team to beat by waltzing through the qualifying stages of the tournament relatively unscathed, but things came undone against Dunedin in the semi-final. The event was won by Nelson, who incidentally had lost to Canterbury in the earlier stages of the tournament. Southland were crowned men’s champions after a dominant display of play across the weekend.

RUN AND WALK

Competitors chase Southerners on song their own clock By Matt Markham matt.m@theguardian.co.nz

A little slice of local knowledge went a long way at the Waireka Croquet Club on the weekend. Some of New Zealand’s elite golf croquet players rocked into town for the two-day South Island Golf Croquet Teams Championship held on Saturday and Sunday, but had to leave having bowed down to the locals with the South Canterbury Association claiming the title. Teams from Nelson, Canterbury, Otago, Southland and South Canterbury competed in the event, which began on Saturday with the singles play before doubles matches on Sunday to round things out. South Canterbury set the early pace, and at the completion of the first day of play led the competition by two points from nearest rival Canterbury, with Nelson, Southland and Otago locked in third position, six points off the pace.

That set up a big day on Sunday with everything still to play for and after four of the five rounds, the South Canterbury lead had shrunk to just one point over Canterbury, meaning the local side needed to win all their games in the final round to secure the title or see Canterbury lose two of their matches. South Canterbury were able to get one win from the final round which left things precariously balanced, but Canterbury also managed just the one victory which saw South Canterbury pick up first placing with 18 wins for the weekend ahead of Canterbury on 17. Southland and Otago finished third equal with nine wins, and Nelson was fifth with seven wins for their efforts over the weekend. The championship was hailed a success by organisers, with great spirit in all matches from all players, and spectators enjoyed the opportunity to watch the tactical skill of the best of the best in the South Island.

Some walked and others ran, but very few, if any, lived up to the name of the event held by Run and Walk Ashburton on Saturday in Argyle Park. In one of their first major events for the year, the group help their annual Turkey Trot – a fun, yet still somewhat serious, expedition in which athletes are challenged to estimate their own finished time before they even turn to face the start line. The 3km course, around the edges of Argyle Park, saw a good group of competitors taking part in either walking or running against their own clock, with a number of entries very close to their estimated time, seeing them pick up placings on the overall standings. In the walk, Lynda Bayne was first on estimate, just one second off her projected

time of 26 minutes and 40 seconds. Wendy Severins finished second, and third equal were Kelvin Leach and David Bayne. The overall race was won by Paul Severins, from Judith Crozier and Lori Rusbatch. In the run event, Chris Chalmers was the closest on estimate. His time of 13 minutes and 11 seconds was just four seconds off his estimated time of 13 minutes and 15 seconds. Mike O’Callaghan was second and Merv Gilbert was third. The overall race was taken out by Kalym Chalmers. Runners and walkers had the added challenge throughout the course of not being able to use watches or devices throughout the duration of the race, making some of the estimates even more impressive. The overall duties of timing were handled by Gordon Clinton and Richard Giller.

Up against a strong line-up in Babolat, Wilson started strong, winning two of the three doubles matches. Sam Cribb and Josh Gilbert beat Jayden Cromie and Phil Crozier, and Mai Lui and Ashton Cromie were too slick for Holly-Jayne Feutz and John Leslie, while for Babolat, Ollie Bubb and Lee Gilbert went to a tie-break to beat Peter Leonard and Gareth Evans. In the singles, Babolat managed to pick up the one and two singles courtesy of Bubb and Gilbert, but the rest was plain sailing for Wilson who won the other four matches to secure the over tie and claim the title.

Ashburton Electronic Organ And Keyboard Club

Janet played in to an almost full house. Very few empty seats. Bev welcomed one new member. Ian Smith and Margaret Drummond organised the evening’s programme, and they scooped up a fair bit of talent from our club. In spite of our signage, Bernard’s keyboard, which he played for the accordion group was the only keyboard used, as members when asked, got together and organised items in various groups with the result that we were entertained to a bright and varied selection of music and song. Audrey’s guys are a quartet at the moment and have lost a few of their past singers. She informed us that including herself, the group comprises of 420 years between them. So come on you guys out there get along. They gave us 4 lovely songs, and sang out. Setting the theme for St Patrick’s day on Wednesday 17th with one song “Stone outside Dan Murpy’s Door,” “Daisy a Day” another. Then Suzie Early boogied her way through so many songs, I couldn’t keep up. She led the way for the many music themes for the evening, with good old Irish songs scattered throughout. Her style is refreshingly different and goes down well. The accordion group is also low on numbers at the moment, but they also gave us some super medleys. Well done guys. All our groups meet regularly for practices, and many have a hand in more than one group. Then Jenny Soal and Ian Smith on ukuleles, sang and played their way through some popular songs. Jenny is a master at the tremelo on her ukulele. We hope she will come again. “Lace covered window” and “Maggi” were two songs. Karen and Irene on piano and accordion. Both decked out in green garb. Even Karen’s song folder was green. Now that’s true Irish flavour. Lovely item guys. Irene dug out some of the many Irish songs she has at her place. Bev S filled in with few jokes (Bev you are the limit. I’ll stick to spaghetti) Lorraine Boud with a lovely sing along. We all took a deep breathe as she fair rattles them out. One after the other no stopping about 30. It was lovely just sitting there listening to the audience qui-

would you chose for yourself and who would I want to be for a day. Some entertaining replies giving us all a good insight of the members’ personalities and dreams. After a short tea break we had great evaluations of tonight’s speeches and Memory Master Deirdre quizzing us on tonight’s speeches, making sure we were all listening. We had a guest, Elizabeth from Christchurch speak about an upcoming event she is organising, “Show don’t Tell” whereby she is looking for some speakers and helpers to showcase Toastmasters to an audience. This will be held on the 18th of April at the Riccarton Centre. The next meeting will be on the 24th of March 7.30pm, meetings are held fortnightly at the Doris Linton Lounge at RSA and guests are very welcome. For more information find us on Facebook.

Mid Canterbury Central Friendship Club

Wendy Millichamp from Lilyfields in Mount Somers was the guest speaker for the Ashburton Horticultural Society this month. etly singing along to each one. Robin’s group completed the evening with a super-dooper medley of songs that I believe came from the ukulele festival in Lauder, Central Otago earlier this year. There were ukuleles spoons (Margaret is great on the old dessert spoons, goodness knows how she’d go on the soup ladles) bongo drum, and a tambourine plus vocals. Medleys were certainly to the fore, and it was a bottomless pit for every performer. Well done everyone, and well done Ian and Margaret. The keyboards and organs had a break this time around which was quite a change. Thank you the kitchen kids for serving supper.

Ashburton Golf Club

The Stoddart bandwagon just keeps on rolling. This week they picked up the teams ambrose with an obscene score of 53, they again proved that they can carry anyone as dad Lindsey along with sons Dylan and Mitch took out Tom, the “weird kid who lives under the stairs” for an airing, and he really seemed to enjoy having a run in the open. There was a bit of controversy around the team in second place, Messers Jansen, Hopwood and Hunt unceremoniously dumped their long term team organiser and brought in local carpet bagger Richard Mc. The boys were totally stumped at the start, as nobody had paid the entry or got the score card or wiped their noses. Nobody listened to which hole they were starting on, so they just trundled aimlessly around the course, eventually starting on hole number 11, of all places. Young Perry really seemed to suffer in this unorganised chaos, as the poor bairn did not manage to get the ball past the ladies tees on the first 3 holes. In fact on number 12 the story is that he teed up a foot behind the tee blocks, took a big heave, dug out a massive divot and the divot knocked the ball off the tee and he didn’t even get past the mens tees, but with some dubious rule bending, and creative counting they managed to snaffle second place. Joking aside, Mr McKernan and the JAE services gang are a great sponsor of the club, if you need your carpets, curtains or furniture cleaned or one of the many other services they offer, just give them a shout. This weekend a bunch of Brandon boys and girls are heading over the river to play in the Tinwald 3500. This is always a wonderfully-run tournament, good course, great people and lots of fun. The Tinwald club deserves a full field and good weather after missing out last year due to lockdown. Good luck to all. The players staying at the Ashburton course will be taking part in one of Matt’s lovely Pro shop days, this time round the old faithful trainwreck stableford is on the cards, where all you points can come tumbling down with a bad hole late in your round. If you are not going over the bridge them come along and support our wonderful pro. Till next time good golfing.

Ashburton Horticultural Society

President Joy welcomed 11 members & 3 visitors to our March meeting. Our guest speaker was Wendy Millichamp from Lilyfields, Mount Somers. Wendy gave a very informative talk on her life from growing up in Christchurch, moving to Ashburton, meeting David and together purchasing Lilyfields from David’s parents in 1989. Lilyfields is a mail order business, with Oderings being one of their biggest sellers of lilies, as from March their tulip bulbs will be sold at all New World stores throughout the South Island. This year they opened Lilyfields to the public, with staggered planting they had 6 weeks of continue lily blooms for visitors to view. A lily takes 100 days from planting to flowering. Members were able to purchase paeony tubers and tulip bulbs. Great table show with 76 entries from 7 exhibitors, there was another very impressive display of dahlias of all colours, sizes and varieties. Table show results: Brian Glassey – 11 firsts, 4 seconds, 1 third, Graham Gunn – 6, 5, 1, John Hoogweg – 4, 1, 2, Joy Jaine – 3, 3, 2, Surrey Lamont – 3, 1, 0, Cyril Keen – 2, 0, 0, Pat Tarbotton – 1, 2, 2, Premier Award: Graham Gunn – 3 Dahlia Blooms – Taritahi Ruby, Raffle was won by Trevor Gamblin. Next meeting is on Friday April 16 at 1.30pm at Domain Pavilion, Walnut Ave, Guest Speaker to be arranged.

Ashburton Toastmasters

The Ashburton Toastmasters Club meeting on the 10th of March was led by with

Mariana as Toastmistress of the evening. The Grammarian Robin introduced the word of the evening, ‘Peerless’, which some speakers managed to incorporate it into their presentations. The Grammarian’s role is also to count the number of umms and comment on general grammar, his report at the end of the evening showed all speakers did very well. The first speaker of the evening was Coby with “You’re Ok”, an entertaining take on questioning why we worry about trivial things, why worry when we are such insignificant tiny part of the history of the earth’s existence. Her curiosity of our existence came from a night spent sleeping outdoors, but instead of sleeping she watched the stars. She spoke about some fabulous wine glasses which she decided to use every day and challenged us to take something out of our china cabinet and use every day as in a billion years time they will be gone anyway. Unfortunately our scheduled second speaker was absent and Deirdre gave us an excellent impromptu off-the-cuff speech following up on Coby’s theme. Like Coby, the best night of her life was spending a night outdoors, on a beach where her partner had built an outdoor bath. Table Topics was presented by Liz by way of a selection of fruit bursts with topics for the volunteers to speak up to a minute about. Questions answered were: your perfect day, where to go on a road trip, which reality tv show you wish to be in, 2 things to take to a deserted island, 2 favourite toys, beach or snow, which birthdate

Diana King flew the Ashburton Bowling Club flag on the weekend.

President Carl welcomed 60 members to his last meeting as President. There were 9 apologies for the meeting. The club stood as a sign of respect for the passing of Rex Whiting and Peter Weily who had passed away during the last month. Ian Smith introduced a new member, Ian Wright, and President Carl inducted him to the club. Roger Lake asked for names for the proposed visit to four venues in the Geraldine area on this coming Thursday. The regular meeting was adjourned, and the annual general meeting was opened. President Carl then read his report. Treasurer Bruce Welsh then presented the balance sheet for the past year. As the incoming president, Ken Borland, was away, his induction will take place and the new committee will be presented at next month’s meeting. The meeting then adjourned for morning tea. The main speakers were Kathy Harrington-Watt and Nils McFarlane who spoke about the refugees who are to be settled in Mid Canterbury. Kathy read a poem, called “Home”, written by a refugee, on the reason why you would leave your home. There are about 26 million refugees in the world and our government has agreed to take in 1500 of these this year but due to covid restrictions, this will be spread over a longer period. These refugees do not have a choice of countries to go to. The countries choose them. The first ones are in NZ now, (having been in quarantine for 2 weeks) and are at present being schooled in the ways of New Zealanders, e.g. our language, customs, etc. The aim is the get them settled and employed. Nils spoke about the skills these people may have and the need to getting them into the workforce. This will take time and they may take on volunteer work to gain confidence. After taking questions from the floor, they were thanked by Russell Small. The meeting was closed by President Carl with the singing of the national anthem.

Colin Horton made his first road cycling race in Ashburton a memorable one when he claimed victory in the Tinwald Tavern Mid Canterbury Championships, raced over 64km under handicap conditions around the Wakanui Beach block on Saturday. Horton and his co-markers hauled in the sole front marker inside the last 500 metres, to set themselves up for a winnertakes-all sprint. It was Horton who hit the line the strongest to claim the victory from a gallant Don Sutton, who secured the second place spoils and lifted the first local home trophy. Nigel Chatterton charged into third

place, backing up some great end of season form. Penny Costello claimed fourth place and the senior women’s time ribbon. Don Morrison and Nigel Leary rounded out the top six. Overall fastest time was recorded by Craig Domigan, riding the distance in a quick 87.22. Kristine Marriott finished her season off in style, taking the women’s fastest time honours, covering the course in 92.20. Maddi Lowry transferred her good recent track form to the road to secure the under 19 winner’s spoils. Rachel Reid will be happy with her busy season, taking the vet 1 women’s ribbon. Liz Wylie capped off her top season with

the vet 3 fastest time ribbon. The senior men’s fastest time ribbon went to Sam Clement-Stewart, with Timaru visitor Hamish McDonald securing vet 2 honours. Tony Ward added to his impressive collection of titles claiming the vet 3 fastest time spoils, with Brent Cowie producing a great ride to lift vet 4 honours. The juniors were also racing for Mid Canterbury titles, contested over the one lap 16km course. Back-marker Mitch Brookland put his recent hard work to good use, to ride through the field, finding the front late in the race to claim fastest time honours and lift the winner’s cup.

Brookland rode the distance in 24.35. Charlotte Neal recorded another top ride to take second place. Third place getter Zoe Spillane took the under 17 girls’ fastest time ribbon. Flynn Turnbull showed he will be one to watch in coming years, recording fourth place, and securing the under 15 boys’ time honours. Ryan Gallagher was in the thick of the finish to take fifth place. Penny Marriott fought right to the end to fill sixth place, and in doing so recorded the under 15 girls’ fastest time. Alan Johns wound the clock back to claim division 2 honours, with Janette Hooper and Kerry Clough filling the other two podium positions.
