Call for volunteers VOLUNTEERS are the lifeblood of our community, but they’re often hard to come by. If you’re interested in giving some of your time to help out, the advice seems to be consistent across the board jjust go for it! Turn to pages 2 and 3 to read about some of the volunteers in our community.

counting. “There’s two ways to look at it,� Ms Lublink said. “Of course, it’s the money itself because all the milk and everything, there’s no government funding whatsoever so this money is really really good. “On the other hand, for us to know that the local community actually appreciates what we’re doing - it’s a big thing. “Lots of times we go out in the bush and we have to go after people that deliberately shoot our wildlife. A lot of people have no respect for Australian wildlife, we see it almost every single day. So to know that there’s people out there that care, for us it makes it all worth it.� Both Mr Hayward and Ms Lublink are hoping this initial donation will start a snowball effect and encourage others to donate. They say that now is especially crucial for people to give, as the wildlife are suffering due to the heat and an increase in illegal shooting. “It’s very hard for the animals at the moment,� Ms Lublink said. “The weather is not helping, we desperately need rain.� “We’ve found so many dead animals and people know that shooting Australian wildlife is illegal, and there’s still a lot going on. “Any money we could get at the moment is a big help.�

KANGALOOLA Wildlife Sanctuary is $1000 richer thanks to Gary Hayward of The Buddha Shop, who hopes his donation will start a trend. “This is brilliant, someone’s out there trying to save our creatures,� he said. “We donated that $1000 to kick-start and we’re hoping that other people think ‘well if they can do it, we should be able to raise a little bit of money as well’.� Mr Hayward sees first-hand the devastation caused by motor vehicles in particular, living at Yackandandah and driving to work every day, and has nothing but praise for the sanctuary that saves hundreds of animals every year. “Glenda has been an angel to wildlife all of her life,� he said. “We knew when driving into town every day how many animals were being killed, and a lot of them are babies. “So we really need help to buy medicines and formulas for these little creatures. “There’s not many people who have the time to do it, but Glenda and her volunteers from all over the world do - but they need money to help fund it.� Kangaloola is run by Glenda Elliot and her volunteers. One volunteer Wyanda Lublink came to the sanctuary as a ‘WOOFER’ (Willing Workers on Organic Farms), and ended up staying for three years - and

Editorial Call for volunteers YOU will notice that this week’s paper features several stories asking for volunteers and assistance from the public. We have the ladies from Kangaloola Wildlife Sanctuary who need financial assistance to continue their invaluable work with our wildlife. Heather Watts is looking for people to “walk for Kelsey� in a bid to aid research into ovarian cancer. The Red Cross is asking for people to put up their hands and become drivers for the patient transport service. Albury Wodonga Palliative Care is asking for people to come forward and volunteer a few hours a week to support those in palliative care and their families. And the Wodonga Raiders are asking businesses to come forward and donate what they can to make their first Pink Stumps Day a success. It seems that volunteers and those who donate time, money and product are one and the same. All crucial to a high-functioning community and all seeking others to do the very same. We never know when tragedy, illness and death will touch us and those we love, and when it does, these organisations become invaluable to us. So why not give back now? Even if you are lucky enough to have your health and that of your family, there is someone out there not so lucky - a brother, sister, partner, mother or friend of someone. Look forward to the future, plan for the future. Not just for people who may be strangers now, but for the security of your own future and that of your children. And don’t forget about our beautiful, unique wildlife.

A DAUNTING and scary reality for many people on the Border is trying to get to the hospital for surgery when you’re frail, alone and can’t drive. Thankfully, Red Cross volunteers provide the answer - safe, reliable, worry-free transport for those who have no other options - but more volunteers are desperately needed. Gwen Blazely has been a volunteer with the service for the past eight years. Ms Blazely said she had volunteered with the service for so long because she found it rewarding helping people in need. “There are a lot of vulnerable people out there who need help - it’s nice to be there for them,� she said. “We need about eight more drivers - we actually drive about 9000 kilometres in a month!� The Red Cross Patient Transport service con-

sists of one car shared between 13 drivers, who assist over 30 socially isolated, older people to get to their essential medical appointments every month. “The drivers get to know the clients, they chat and listen to their stories,� Ms Blazely said. “They’re so dedicated the drivers, and they enjoy it so much they call me when they finish a trip and ask when they can do another one.� Volunteer drivers choose whether they want to do long trips to Melbourne or local trips and nominate days that they are available. “It’s very flexible,� Ms Blazely said. “We have a great team and all work well together.� Full training and support is provided. To learn more about the Red Cross Patient Transport service contact Red Cross on 8346 8341.

Wishing and hoping

Call for volunteers By KRYSTEN MANUEL MERCY Health Albury Palliative Care is looking for generous volunteers from all walks of life to assist with their holistic support service, and comfort those who have been diagnosed with a non-curative, lifelimiting illness. These patients require physical, social, emotional and spiritual care from an integrated team of professional palliative care workers, as fear and anxiety surrounding their life is sometimes too much to bear alone. Palliative care empowers people with information and education that allow patients to decide the supports that best suit their individual and unique needs. Volunteer support workers are crucial to the care of patients because of their own personal skills such as understanding, acceptance, respect and maturity, and this is how they will be chosen. Each volunteer will give up to four hours a week, with each placement uniquely matched with the patient. “When a patient is registered, their first communication is with a nurse and then the palliative care support co-ordinator follows up with each member of the family to look at support and what they may need in their changed circumstances,” Albury Wodonga Palliative Care support co-ordinator, Louisa Thompson said. “They are matched by checking out their likes, dislikes and needs - it’s a personality match.” Mercy Health Albury Palliative Care will be conducting interviews for volunteer support workers to join its team late February. Successful applicants would then participate in a training program which would commence early March, two days a week over three weeks. “We have long serving volunteers of over 20 years, they love it and we offer a lot of support for them in turn,” Ms Thompson said. For further inquiries please contact support co-ordinator, Louisa Thompson on 6042 1458.

Christine Way says volunteering for the Make-A-Wish Foundation is very rewarding.

By TREVOR JACKSON AFTER 24 years volunteering for the Make-A-Wish Foundation, Border volunteer Christine Way hasn’t lost any of her passion. The foundation offers children with life-threatening illness a wish and it’s up to volunteers in the area to make it happen. And Christine has certainly played her part, having been involved in around 100 wishes from close to 150 in the region. Christine said one of the most memorable wishes she’d been involved in was for a young girl who wanted to be princess for a day. “I think that wish was so memorable because there were so many people join together to make it happen,” she said. The wish involved many people

in the community, from making her dress, putting on a concert and the mayor welcoming her as she arrived in a horse and cart and walked down a red carpet to her princess party. Christine said helping out with such wishes was very satisfying. “It’s just seeing that you can make a difference for a child,” she said. “It might only be for week or a month but you can bring a smile to their face. When they’ve been in hospital for treatment for a long time it’s good to see them smile.” “And the parents are always very grateful. I remember one wish family we sent to the theme parks on the Gold Coast and it rained all week. They couldn’t go to the theme parks but they said it was the best time. They got to spend quality time together as a family.”

But the foundation is struggling for volunteers in the Albury Wodonga area and is currently looking to attract more people to help. “We need some new volunteers here, some new blood with new ideas for fund-raising,” Christine said. “I urge people to just try to commit to even an hour a week - sometimes it’s not even that. We might hold a sausage sizzle or something like that and we need people to help out.

“I’d say just get involved where they can. It’s certainly worthwhile.” The Albury Wodonga volunteer branch of Make-A-Wish is urgently seeking volunteers to join and help and will be holding an information session on Wednesday 27 February, 7pm at The Commercial Club, Albury. Those interested in attending the information night can contact Jacqui Webster on 03 9426 0777 or via email at j.webster@makeawish.org.au.

Organ donation let’s talk about it By KRYSTEN MANUEL

THE Beechworth Secondary College is putting up their hand to promote the importance of organ and tissue donation for Donate Life Week. The week spans from 24 February to 2 March, and is focusing on asking and knowing your loved ones’ wishes in regards to donation. “One person’s organs can help 10 people, and I think there’s too many organs being burnt or going into the ground, and it would be nice if people knew about it,” organiser Josie Cornish said. “The people to target are the younger ones, that way you’re getting it out to the parents and the relatives. “They don’t understand that they can make the decision themselves and discuss it with their families and let them know their wishes. “Australia is a country where a family can over-rule someone who has signed up for organ and tissue donation. It’s happened a couple of times this year.” Ms Cornish holds organ donation close to her heart, as she has a friend on dialysis who is waiting indefinitely for a kidney. “It’s hard. People are dying while they wait for organ

and tissue, organs mainly,” she said. On 27 February, Beechworth Secondary College will be welcoming keynote speakers and police band, Code One. The senior students will be in attendance with special guests from the Lions Club of Beechworth, Mrs Lesley Smart (president) Mr Graeme Smart (secretary) and Ms Christine Luckman (treasurer). The President of the Rotary Club of Beechworth, Ms Kathryn Chivers will also be in attendance. Graeme Smart is another individual who truly knows the importance of organ donation, having recently accepted an eye. “My right eye was very blurry and I’ve always had a lot of trouble with that eye,” he said. “I can see the telly, read the phone book, drive and everything. “It’s a big improvement really. “I think organ donors are marvellous, I think there should be more of them. “A lot of people would have been in a lot of trouble without them and I feel as though everyone should donate.”

Graeme Smart is back at bowls and better than ever thanks to the generosity of an organ donor.

Water warning ALBURY residents are being advised not to swim in any of the water bodies around Horseshoe Lagoon, West Albury, and to keep pets out of the waterways after blue-green algae blooms were detected in one of the treatment ponds. The algae is contained to treatment pond two, but Albury council is advising residents to keep out of all waterways around the pond as a precaution. The algae has been caused by continuous hot weather combined with maintenance works at the nearby treatment plant. The works have reduced water flows through the lagoon system and increased nutrient levels in the treated wastewater being discharged by the plant. The algae has depleted oxygen levels in the water, resulting in the loss of up to 1,000 European Carp. Blue-green algae can produce toxins that can potentially pose a health risk to animals and humans. AlburyCity Group Leader of Water and Waste Water Colin Johnson said while the area wasn’t known as a swimming area, residents walking their dogs might throw a stick in the water for their dog to fetch which could potentially cause health issues for the pet. “The lagoons do not usually have bluegreen algae, although it can be a seasonal occurrence in most aquatic systems, including streams, lakes, estuaries and the sea,” Mr Johnson said. “It can be caused by a number of factors including nutrient levels, low inflows, low storage volumes and warm weather conditions.” Following the completion of maintenance work, flows from the Kremur Street treatment plant will return to their normal levels. Council will continue monitoring the situation. The algae will dissipate naturally when cooler temperatures arrive and flows from the treatment works are back to normal.

Heather Watts is hoping to see a big crowd at the Walk for Ovarian Cancer this Saturday at Sumsion Gardens.

Banner nets cash By TREVOR JACKSON

YOU may have noticed a banner draped across Wodonga council flag poles outside the Gateway Island cultural precinct on the causeway. And you’re not the only one. Various business and other groups have also noticed the banner, and reached deep into their pockets as a result. The banner indicates this year’s Walk for Ovarian Cancer, set to take place Saturday night at Sumsion Gardens. Heather Watts organised the event originally after losing her daughter Kelsey to ovarian cancer. Now in its second year, Heather said the response from the community had been overwhelming. The walk is designed ultimately to raise funds for research into ovarian cancer, but

Heather said it would be a great night for families to head down to Sumsion Gardens and take a walk around the area - A Walk with Kelsey. Plenty of entertainment will be provided with bands, choirs and food. “We also have Sparky the clown coming down and donating his balloons and time for the kids,” Heather said. “We have stalls operating including jewellery, jams and preserves. We have a sausage sizzle, drinks and ice creams as well as remembrance balloons and battery-powered candles. “We have a pretty full night planned and it’s important to note it’s a remembrance night for anyone affected by cancer, not just ovarian cancer.” Heather said one of the main objectives when she first began the walk was for much

of the money raised to stay here in the local area, with the remaining funds going to research nationally. One woman in Australia dies from ovarian cancer every 10 hours. Heather is determined to continue to raise awareness in the community and ultimately drive change through funding research. “Half the money raised will stay here on the Border for the benefit of local women,” Heather said. “The other half will go to the Ovarian Cancer Research Foundation in Melbourne for research so we can change that dreadful statistic.” The Walk for Ovarian Cancer begins at 6pm near the memorial rose garden in Sumsion Gardens, Wodonga. All are welcome and encouraged to attend.

and blood sugar levels will all be checked, and a confidential assessment provided. The tests will be carried out by a registered nurse from the Victor Chang Cardiac Research Institute, with results provided immediately. Simply drop into the branch early to avoid missing out. For any further inquiries drop into the Albury branch at 495-499 Dean Street and speak to Pamela McGrath. The tests will take place on 6-8 March, between 9am and 4.45pm.

Border gets active WODONGA City Council will benefit from a VicHealth and Sport and Recreation Victoria program designed to inspire residents to get more physical activity into their day. Wodonga will receive $488,000 funding over three years to get more people more active more often. The program is particularly targeted at children, families, older people and volunteers. Wodonga Mayor Mark Byatt said research showed one in four adults in Wodonga did not get enough exercise. “Be Active will increase opportunities for participation in physical activity across all areas of our community,” he said. “The program will work with the community by cel-

ebrating what is currently happening around physical activity, adding value to existing programs, activities and services by connecting community groups, addressing any gaps and making use of opportunities.” Be Active’s actions include a focus on planning, contributing to a more co-ordinated workforce, strengthening partnerships and being innovative. Be Active supports the work of Healthy Together Wodonga in making healthy choices easier choices. The first step for council will be to use the VicHealth Physical Activity Framework to strengthen its Municipal Public Health and Well-being Plan.

Round-up and read! BORDER residents will have the opportunity to help place $1 million worth of books into the hands of kids who really need them with Dymocks’ Round Up Campaign. Australia’s leading bookseller, is encouraging customers to round-up the value of their purchases to the nearest dollar to help raise funds for Dymocks Children’s Charities (DCC) literacy support projects. In the latest Progress in International Reading Literacy Study1, Australia ranked 27th out of 48 countries in reading ability. This was behind every other English-speaking country that participated, including the United States, England and Ireland. Alarmingly, the research also revealed that approximately one quarter of Australian students did not meet the minimal acceptable standard of proficiency across both literacy tests. Scientist and author, Dr Karl Kruszelnicki has teamed up with Dymocks to highlight the importance of children reading as a life skill, and is encouraging Dymocks Albury customers to support the cause through the Round Up campaign. “When you read, you hear the voice of another person,” Dr Karl said. “They might still be alive on the other side of the world, or they might have died 1,000 years ago. But one thing is for sure - when you read, you let the light shine into your brain. “Reading can make you free of what is holding you back. Reading is the bridge that can take you from disease to health, from poverty to wealth and from sadness to happiness.” Dymocks Albury franchisee Judith Doughty, explains that reading is an essential tool for life. “Unfortunately not all Australian

David Lewis of Dymocks Albury invites everyone to round-up for reading. children have access to quality books,” she said. “Dymocks Children’s Charities has developed literacy support programs that put quality books into the hands of kids who really need them across the country including NSW. These programs encourage primary students to cultivate a love for books and reading every day, which is so important for future success. “According to investigation carried out by DCC, the single most important factor in changing a child’s reading behaviour is to ensure they have access to quality books which are relevant. “It’s worrying to consider that many kids around Australia have never owned a new book.” All funds raised through the Round Up campaign in NSW will go directly towards DCC literacy projects and purchasing quality new books for children in NSW. Dymocks’ latest Children’s Reading Guide, as well as the option to Round Up is available to Dymocks Albury customers and in all 74 Dymocks stores across the country.

By TREVOR JACKSON RESIDENTS of Whenby Grange stage three in Wodonga can now enjoy super-fast internet connections with the National Broadband Network going live this week. The new subdivision is the first area of Wodonga to have the connection up and running and can expect dizzying speeds up to 100 megabytes per second, dependant on plans chosen. Residents will be able to choose between Telstra and Activ8 initially with more service providers expected to join in the coming weeks. As an example, a movie download that may have taken hours should be completed in just minutes. Wodonga residents in some areas would well understand the frustration of the internet system in the city with many complaining about slow speeds, often due to distance from the exchange, even in many of the newer subdivisions. The NBN should in theory alleviate the problem, again depending on which plan is chosen. Maria Shaddock, marketing and sales manager for Whenby Grange land developer Nordcon Land said they were excited about the service going live. She said many people looking to build a new home in Wodonga were already asking about the availability of the NBN. “In this IT age, for some buyers it could be the difference between buying at Whenby Grange stage three or somewhere that doesn’t have NBN,” she said. “It’s a big attraction for a lot of people. We’ve been waiting for this for quite a while.”

Plan for protection By MARA PATTISON-SOWDEN

Township Protection Plans are available for residents, specific to their areas and needs. Picture: MARA PATTISON-SOWDEN

The fi firre’s miles away.

TOWNSHIP Protection Plans are available throughout the state. The TPPs are community guides that contain township specific information, such as local risks, bushfire planning and preparation advice for both people and properties, community maps and key contacts for emergencies. Some areas are extreme bushfire risk and have no designated Neighbourhood Safer Place - Place of Last Resort, so residents should have a plan for when the Fire Danger Rating is severe, extreme or code red. CFA Community Safety manager Ray Fritz said TPPs were a valuable tool for planning for bushfires, and knowing what to do if one occurs. “The plans are the result of consultation with communities, local CFA brigades and local councils,” Mr Fritz said. “Communities have identified specific local risks, unique to them, which have been highlighted and addressed in the plan.

“Residents and visitors can use the TPP to ensure they prepared in the event of a fire.” The 2012/13 fire season has already seen a higher than usual grassfire risk with large fuel loads a result of strong growth after a wet winter and spring. As those fuel loads dry out, the fire risk will be high and the risk of bushfire remains high. The CFA urges residents to use the information to make important decisions about bushfire risk. Actions may include: - Remembering to leave early on a code red day; - Preparing properties for the upcoming bushfire season; - Developing a bushfire survival plan and discussing it with family and friends; - Be aware of the Fire Danger Ratings in the local area. It is important that residents keep their TPP in a safe place and use it this bushfire season.

It could be here in minutes.

If you’re in two minds, leave early. The best way to prepare for this fire season is to stay informed and plan to leave early, before you see smoke or fire. Don’t wait and hope for the best. Plan to leave early: ü Talk to everyone you live with so you all know when you’re going to leave and where you’re going to go if a fire starts. ü Pack a relocation kit with important documents and essential items. ü Use more than one source of information for warnings. Get the most up to date information through the CFA website, the FireReady app, CFA’s social media channels such as Facebook and Twitter, local radio or the Victorian Bushfire Information Line on 1800 240 667.

Plan to leave early visit cfa.vic.gov.au or call 1800 240 667

The CFA recommends residents attend Fire Ready meetings to learn more about their TPPs.

10 ways to keep your pooch busy By KRYSTEN MANUEL

instead opt for bones made from synthetic materials, which are better for their teeth. Treasure hunts - hiding small amounts of food around the garden is a fun way to keep your dog entertained throughout the day. Morning walks - a morning walk before work can assist your dog to burn excess energy, helping them to feel more settled during the day. Evening games - Taking time to play some games with your dog at night gives them something to look forward to at the end of the day. Food distributors - there are a variety of creative food distributors on the market, which require dogs to chew through bags or solve a puzzle to access their food. As your dog will need to play with the dispenser to reach their food, it may hold their attention for longer than other toys. Dog day care - the occasional trip to dog day care can be a great way to break up your dog’s week. Do your research when choosing a dog day care centre to ensure they have good facilities and will pay your dog regular attention. Dog walkers - if you don’t have time to walk your dog, or are away from home, engaging a dog walking service is a good way to ensure your dog stays in its regular exercise routine. Play dates - organising a play date provides an opportunity for your dog to socialise with others. If possible alternate play dates on days one of you is not at work to share the workload. Training - undertaking some training with your dog is not just an avenue for improving behaviour, but also an excellent way to keep them active and entertained.

Frypans and dogs don’t mix BEFORE you rush out and buy that next batch of pet meat, frozen vegetables and rice or pasta and then head home to cook up a gastronomical delight for Rover, think about this - who cooked his dinner before we came along? This is why your dog should be eating raw food. A mix of raw meaty bones and muscle meat should account for the largest part of any raw food diet and can range from 60 - 75 per cent of the entire diet. It’s important to have a good mix of meat and bones as opposed to just meat or just bones. This will not only keep Rover busy, but will also keep his teeth clean. Raw, meaty bones are rich in calcium, glucosamine, chondroitin, essential fatty acids, amino acids, Vitamins A, D, E and K, and when Rover chews a bone his body releases serotonin, which makes him feel good. Another important point is to always choose size appropriate bones - the bigger the dog, the bigger the bone, and never feed dogs cooked bones of any type. The second biggest portion of a raw food diet will consist of fruits and vegetables and is best served minced or chopped before combining with raw meat. Green leafy vegetables aid digestion, and the fibre found in these can also help your dog with its bowel movements. Fruits such as apples, bananas, pears, watermelon and oranges can be added due to their vitamin content. Many berries are anti-oxidants that can help your dog fight against free radicals and aging. Finally, the smallest portion of the diet will belong to offal and other foods or supplements that contain needed vitamins and minerals. Coconut oil is another valuable addition as it com1063821-JJ8-13

FOR those who live with the pitter-patter of tiny paws, you know that having a dog can sometimes be akin to having children - you have to keep them occupied or trouble can quickly and easily brew. And as the holiday period has come to an end and we are all back at work and school, our four-legged friends are also looking forward to the next holidays when they have someone to play with again. Many dog owners overlook the need for their dog to receive regular stimulation, and forget that keeping busy is extremely important in a dog’s mental and physical well-being. In the same way that humans need to be entertained, dogs need to be kept active and challenged or they will quickly become bored. In many cases this can lead to inappropriate behaviour, with some dogs resorting to barking, scratching and destroying objects as a source of stimulation and to attract attention. While pet owners can’t spend every day with their dogs, there are some simple measures you can take to ease the stress and boredom of your best friend. Toys - having a collection of fun toys and games is a great way to keep your dog occupied while you are away. There are always new toys coming on the market and owners should look to rotate toys on different days to keep dogs entertained. Chewing bones- in addition to helping dogs to keep busy, a chewing bone can also provide dental benefits by helping to control plaque. Owners should avoid giving their dogs leftover bones from roasts and

EXERCISING for pregnant ladies is extremely important and provides many physical, emotional and social benefits to an expecting mother - especially yoga. Fit, healthy mothers-to-be can expect to have more energy, stronger back muscles to help manage back pain and strain as their belly grows, improved posture, weight control, stress relief, improved sleep, faster recuperation after labour, faster return to pre-pregnancy fitness, a healthy weight and increased ability to cope with the physical demands of motherhood. That is more than enough inspiration to get moving - now, where do you start? It is always best to see your general practitioner before going ahead with exercise, as individual cases can differ in quantity and type. If you have been given the all-clear to exercise, it is recommended that you: Engage in at least 30 minutes of moderate intensity physical activity (according to the Perceived Exertion Scale) on most, if not all, days of the week. Do no more than three sessions per week of vigorous exercise by the third trimester. Let your body be your guide - you know you’re at a good intensity when you can talk normally and not become exhausted too quickly. Be guided by your doctor, physiotherapist or health care professional. Some activities that are fantastic for pregnant women include walking, swimming, cycling, yoga, stretching, dancing, pilates and any pregnancy exercise classes. Strength training and running are also recommended but only for women who have been engaging in this activity prior to pregnancy. For those of you who have always loved a good workout, it is important to know that there are some things you should not do when pregnant. Always be guided by your doctor or physiotherapist, but general rules include: Avoid raising your body temperature too high for example, don’t soak in hot spas or exercise to the point of heavy sweating, and reduce your level of exercise on hot or humid days. Don’t exercise to the point of exhaustion. If weight training, choose low weights and medium to high repetitions - avoid lifting heavy weights altogether. Don’t exercise if you are ill or feverish. If you don’t feel like exercising on a particular day - then don’t! It is important to listen to your body to avoid unnecessarily depleting your energy reserves. To be a little more specific, pregnant women need to avoid sports and activities with increased risk of falling, including: Contact sports or activities that carry a risk of

Competition sports - depending on the stage of pregnancy, the level of competition and your level of fitness. After about the fourth month of pregnancy, exercises that involve lying on your back - the weight of the baby can slow the return of blood to the heart. Try to modify these exercises by lying on the side. In the later stages of pregnancy, activities that involve jumping, frequent changes of direction and excessive stretching, such as gymnastics. Yoga is an activity that focuses on holistic health - physical, mental, emotional, social and spiritual health, and is offered here on the Border in classes specific to pregnant ladies. Sarah Heywood of Her and Them Yoga believes in balancing the “yin and yang” of hard work and relaxation in yoga, and provides classes suitable for pregnancy and motherhood. “We do have specific areas we work in a prenatal class,” she said. “An everyday yoga class is intense cardio workouts, strength and also stretching, but when you come to a pre-natal class, it’s designed to be completely safe for you an your baby. “We really focus on strengthening parts of us that will help during the birthing process if you’re having a natural birth, strengthening parts of us so that we have an easy recovery for birth and are also able to lug around a baby and then a toddler.” Ms Heywood is also a massage therapist and specialises in pregnancy massage, although her work is centred around yoga at the moment. “Just the same as yoga, you need a specialist, and there are some great providers around Albury,” she said.

Raw snapshot of life By KRYSTEN MANUEL

XXX

IN ANTICIPATION of the arrival of Adam Brand and Beccy Cole in their “I Was Here” tour, NEWSWEEKLY met one of the biggest stars in Australian country music to mull over the finer points of sharing the stage and the maze of emotions that is the life of a performer. Adam Brand has sold over half a million CDs and DVDs over the course of his career, and earned three platinum and five gold albums, but still has time to praise our humble Kinross Woolshed. “The Kinross is one of the best gigs in Australia!” he said. “It has so much atmosphere - when the crowd gets there, they’re pumped. The place just promotes a party atmosphere.” Brand will be in Thurgoona next weekend alongside Beccy Cole, Travis Collins and Matt Cornell on the last leg of their tour around Australia. And the question begs to be asked how is it sharing the spotlight? Does the on-stage banter and friendliness carry on backstage? “Bec and I have been touring together for years,” Brand said. “Earlier on in our career we toured together so we know each other quite well. “It’s really easy, there’s no egos, no problems, none of that rubbish going on, everyone in the band gets on great. “We have Travis Collins on the road as well who is absolutely killin’ it and a new guy called Matty Cornell, so we all have our partner shows and then we finish with a bang. “This line-up we’ve got now is one of the best line-ups I’ve ever toured with.”

As colourful as the cast of this tour, Brand’s music is set to wow crowds yet again, with that exciting mixture of songs that get you screaming and up on your feet one moment and as emotional as a lonesome cowboy the next. “I think what happens with me and my music is that it’s like a snapshot of my life,” Brand said. “If you think about your life, even just a week - man, even sometimes just a day we go through all these different emotions. So all of my albums are made up of songs that reflect the ups and downs, the rollercoaster, the left and right of life. “It’s always been like that and I don’t think that will ever change for me because it’s something that’s close to my heart, to be honest about my life. “Sometimes I stand on the bar, punch my fist in the air and go crazy, and sometimes I sit in the corner and lose it.” That said, one has to wonder how this international country music star winds down after pouring out his heart and soul on stage. A few beers? A party? Cigarettes and whiskey? “I’m pretty knackered, I’m pretty buggered by the end of the show - I don’t leave anything in the reserve tank,” he said. “So I kinda like to just go back to my room and have a cuppa tea and a Monte Carlo biscuit.” And it’s disclosures like this that remind us again that the stars on stage still live under the same sky we all do! The “I Was Here” tour comes to the Kinross Woolshed on 23 February. Call 6043 1155 for detail or visit www. kinrosswoolshed.com.au for tickets.

Patrons at Tastes of Rutherglen are up for a treat this year at the 25th Anniversary of the weekend.

Great tastes milestone By KRYSTEN MANUEL

TASTES of Rutherglen is celebrating its 25th anniversary this year, and is bigger and better than ever, with 19 of all of your favourite local wineries involved. “It’s a celebration of the wonderful local produce and the amazing wine that comes from the Rutherglen region,” the festival’s executive officer of wine makers of Rutherglen, Judy PanmerDoyle said. “It has become a favourite and each

year, although we attract a number of new people, we also have people that return each year.” Ms PanmerDoyle said the best way for visitors to enjoy the weekend was to use the shuttle to enjoy the wine, entrees and activities to their full potential. And don’t forget your “tastes pack”. “You purchase a taste pack in order to enjoy the festival,” she said. “Your taste pack has two tickets which are redeemable for an entree-sized meal and a glass of wine, or an activity,

which is a master class or a chocolate and wine lesson. “The pack also has an official wine glass in it and it is $50. “This year we’ve produced a commemorative recipe booklet with recipes that all of our wineries have served at some point in time in the last 25 years, and a matching wine - a lovely little souvenir, and we all love to cook!” For more information on Tastes of Rutherglen, visit www.rutherglenvic. com.

Haven where the heart is By KRYSTEN MANUEL MOVIE: Safe Haven DURATION: 115 minutes YET again, I am strongly at odds with the critics, who label the film as “hallmark romance”, “dull” and warn us not to “put our Valentine through this.” Although it is a little predictable, any movie featuring a shirtless Josh Duhamel is OK by me - and the storyline was decent too. The plot follows the journey of a scared young woman, Katie Feldman,

who runs away from a crazy, alcoholic, violent ex-husband, and finds herself in a sleepy town by the sea. As she tries to live a life at the same time as keep a low profile, Katie finds herself falling in love with Alex (Duhamel), a store owner, father of two and widower. Katie’s past catches up with her in an extraordinary, fiery showdown, but their love is still intact when the sun rises, although the store isn’t. When leaving the theatre I noticed

most people were still seated, wiping the mascara from their cheeks, as the ending is not only a clever twist, but a real tear-jerker. Based on a book written by Nicholas Sparks (writer of The Notebook and Dear John,) this film is yet another healthy bonus for Kleenex, who must attribute most of their profit to Sparks, with his clever plots and patient character development. Screw the critics! This is one for the romantics at heart.

Bright future beckons WAGGA ROAD has been a major commercial hub in the Albury region for many years. The combination of large commercial sites and a diverse range of businesses has ensured its longevity both before and since the construction of the Hume Freeway bypass. And if Albury Northside Chamber of Commerce has any say in it, the area will continue to forge ahead with future planning and new developments changing the shape of the street. Chair of the chamber Phil Clements says there’s plenty of confidence in the area, both from the Chamber and the existing businesses. “The businesses there are there for the long run, and obviously doing well,” he says. “The new developments that are happening in the area are going to inject a degree of positivity there as well. The prospects for the region generally are very bright. “I think Wagga Road is going to be a significant player in a commercial sense going forward.” Right: Northside Chamber of Commerce members are keen to promote the positives of Wagga Road to business owners. From left, Greg Wood (director), Carrick Gill-Vallance (member services officer) Phil Clements (chair) and Andrea Grimmond (director).

Precinct offers room to grow BEAUTIFICATION, streetscape works, improved parking and freeway signage are all suggestions being thrown around in relation to Wagga Road moving forward. Meetings between Albury Northside Chamber of Commerce, business owners and Albury council groups are taking place and seem set to take advantage of the growth areas in the Albury region. Ideally situated between Albury CBD and Thurgoona, Wagga Road is enjoying a growing clientele who look to the street’s unique businesses and ease of access. Chair of the chamber of commerce Phil Clements says there’s a certain vibrancy in the street that the chamber is keen to see continue. “There have been issues around Wagga Road for quite some time that we’ve discussed at monthly chamber meetings,” Mr Clements said. “We decided Wagga Road was worthy of a bit of special attention. The meetings have generated a lot of discussion, a lot of ideas and covered everything from the aesthetics through to the general business climate we’re experiencing at the moment.” Mr Clements said Lavington was regarded as the demographic centre of Albury and the anticipated growth in the Thurgoona/Wirlinga area made Wagga Road the ideal place to do business. “It’s going to be a pretty happening area in the future,” he said. “Just in terms of its ideal location for through traffic, I think it’s going to be very well-placed and it will become a quite significant business hub. It is a major thoroughfare and when you look at the volume of traffic going through there, it is very busy.

“If you’re a new business looking for somewhere to go and need a bit of room to move, room to grow, there aren’t many places you can go - Wagga Road is a good choice.” Mr Clements said far from attempting to create another Dean Street, Wagga Road provided to the opportunity to create its own identity, with the diverse range of businesses attracting a unique set of consumers. “I think the types of businesses that are out that way are quite different,” he said. “They are businesses which are more expansive in terms of the amount of area they need to set up, whether car yards, caravan sales or shed builders. “There are also the businesses that have been established on Wagga Road for many years and continue to do well,” he said. “Then of course there are the other supporttype services which will continue to happen as a natural course of everything else going on.” Mr Clements said future redevelopment of the Wagga Road precinct would take into account old plans, new ideas and further consultation between all stakeholders. He said other recent developments such as The Doctors stood to have a large impact on the future growth of the region. “We can’t underestimate the impact of those sorts of developments and how that will be a draw-card for other businesses to come out and establish in that precinct,” he said. And Mr Clements said while there were always improvements that could be made, there were many positives for people to look at Wagga Road as a vibrant place to do business now and into the future.

Phil Clements says Wagga Road is a great place to do business.

Tales of early days AS you can see, Wagga Road has changed dramatically over the years. The businesses, the layout and the road itself, have all come a long way. One resident who has lived in Lavington his whole life, and has some extraordinary memories of Wagga Road, is Dr Arthur Frauenfelder, of Melrose Veterinary Clinic. “I’ve grown up in Lavington and seen it just grow out of sight,� Dr Frauenfelder said. “My family originally came from here, my parents married post-war in Melbourne. Dad had grown up out at Tabletop and he came back when I was four.� Dr Frauenfelder grew up at the top end of Kaitlers Road and remembers Wagga Road with clarity. “Where the hardware store was, there was a building supply shop that was going strong 50 years ago. It was known as Lavington Building Supplies, and there has always been a car yard opposite there,� he said. “Smart Cakes built on Wagga Road decades ago, the original family are still running that. “The petrol station was there forever and between the corner where the petrol station was and the next building, there was a roadhouse for semi-trailers. “There was a post office where Rivers are, and right on the corner was a car yard that used to regularly change hands,� he said.

NEED A SHED? Here’s why you should call us

Sheds

“The post office was a converted house that was then built into a corner store, then the post office moved across to the plaza, that corner became a lost leader and then Rivers came.� Dr Fraunfelder also remembers the Riverina’s very first motel. “The very first motel in the Riverina used to be called the Jasper, which is the one on the right hand side as you go up the rise,� he said. “It was ran by a bloke called Jasper. The front units are original, but the inside has been fitted out and there are newer units up the back.� Wagga Road is also known for its car yards, and Dr Frauenfelder’s memory not only spans through businesses and people, but pets too. “There were two guard dogs there that we used to treat, we opened in ’76, so it was still there then, and one of the guys was on holidays overseas and the other guy was sick and in Howlong,� he said. “They were the two that ran the yards and put the dogs away, ready for the salesman. “The salesman rang me and said ‘we can’t get the dogs into the run and the other guy is sick.’ So I said, ‘the only way you’re going to get them in is to send a car to Howlong, pick this guy up.’ “So - sick as a dog - they picked him up, walk into the yard, put the dogs in the pen and they drove him home.�

Homes&Property �� Albury Wodonga

Stylish rural retreat This stunning lifestyle property awaits you at Yackandandah.

By TREVOR JACKSON LIFESTYLE properties are highly sought after but few have the impact of this architecturallydesigned Yackandandah offering. Set on eight stunning acres just three minutes’ drive from the town centre of Yackandandah, everything is in place to ensure a living experience like no other. Sealed-road access, school bus-stops for both Wodonga and Beechworth close by, clean, fresh bore water and captivating views to Mount Buffalo and the surrounding mountains from most rooms of the home combine to create your own personal nirvana with convenience and style - and all just a short 20-minute drive to Wodonga. Entering the property through the agapanthuslined circular drive offers a glimpse of what’s to

come, with expansive grounds and mature trees providing the perfect haven to escape from the stresses of the working week. The stylish entry reveals large rustic-look tiles which feature throughout the living area. One end of the home offers the perfect parent’s retreat with large master bedroom and stunning views to the mountains. An expansive walkin robe provides ample storage for his and hers while the spacious ensuite includes twin basins and a toilet. Adjacent French doors lead into a large office, with enough room to be possibly used as a nursery for the latest edition to the growing family. A generous formal lounge room completes this end of the home, with windows front and back, creating the perfect space to entertain friends in

style and privacy. The remaining two bedrooms, in keeping with the theme of the home, are of ample proportions, with mirrored built-in robes. The main bathroom is again spacious and tasteful with a separate toilet adjacent. And not to forget those mundane but necessary chores, the laundry includes ample cupboard space and a large built-in linen press. Of course a property of this stature would not be complete with an impressive living area and in this respect this home shines. The expansive open-plan area provides a beautiful outlook from every point, including a large flat-glass window to provide unencumbered views across the mountains. The kitchen is itself a show-piece, and will be the pride of the budding chef while entertaining guests. It includes extensive cupboard space, a large, deep pantry and an L-shaped island bench. A double electric oven, electric cook-top and stainless steel dishwasher ensure the necessary tasks are completed with ease. The dining area adds a further touch of class with cathedral ceiling and windows to suit, offering an unparalleled dining experience. Stepping outside reveals a back yard like no other. Firstly a spacious undercover alfresco area provides the perfect spot for outdoor dining, with a pitched roof, ceiling fans and mature mop-top trees offering a cool retreat in the warmer months.

2

An extra covered area is provided at the end of the home, the perfect spot to relax and unwind in a spa while taking in the beautiful vista. Established gardens surround the home and extend to a large orchard, including peach, nectarine, almond, olive, cherry and quince trees. And there’s no problems keeping them growing, with abundant water available from the 22,000 litre-per-day bore capacity. The bore also provides fresh water for the home, tested and safe for consumption. The main ‘house yard’ is expansive and includes shady areas for relaxing on lazy weekends. A large horse paddock with yards is included, with a shelter shed towards the front of the property. Electric fencing surrounds the property. A double garage with remote-controlled door provides storage for the family vehicles while a 6x6 metre carport, attached to another 6x6 metre shed allows easy covered storage for the caravan and boat plus a space for the handyman to retreat. Other features of the home include LED lighting, gas heating with continuous temperature controlled gas hot water, evaporative cooling, full insulation in ceiling and walls and an automatic watering system. If it’s a lifestyle property you’re after with room to move, then look no further. Properties of this stature are hard to come by and this magnificent example will surely not be on the market for long.

Albury Wodonga

No-gloss service a winner By TREVOR JACKSON

CLOSE to two decades in the real estate industry has led Nigel Horne to where he currently sits - as principal of Hutton Real Estate. Nigel took over the reins after Barry Hutton, founder of the business, retired in December last year and is more than happy to continue to build on the reputation forged by the pair with clients in both Albury and Wodonga. Having been a partner in the business since 2009, Nigel was very familiar with the style of agency Barry was building. He says his small team offers a personalised serviced that clients appreciate, proven by the return custom they receive. “A lot of people think you have to be the biggest to do a good job,� Nigel said. “We actually punch well above our weight and I think it comes down to doing it right and being able to relate to people. “I have clients who I have been dealing with my entire time in real estate. I’ve been managing properties for them the whole time. They wouldn’t go anywhere else because they receive the service and the communication they want with us.� But Nigel says their tenants are treated with equal respect. “I have people who have rented with me for many years,� he said. “They’ve started with me in a one bedroom flat, they’ve expanded their family and moved in

a two bedroom unit and once they’ve had children, they have moved up again. “Plus it’s exciting when an ex-tenant comes back and wants me to manage their home for them. “I have people who have rented with me, bought a house off me, I’ve managed their house when they have moved on and then eventually sold it for them.� The team at Hutton Real Estate consists of Nigel and property managers Elaine Jones and Ashleigh Ferguson. And Nigel is in no doubt the success of the business is also due to his staff. “Elaine has been with us for three and half years and this is Ashleigh’s second stint with us,� Nigel said. “Our success is a pat on the back for the girls. The clients tell me they’re easy to talk to and are a wealth of knowledge.� But Nigel also noted Ashleigh would soon be taking maternity leave and he will be looking for another staff member to replace her. And he’ll be looking for someone to fit into the mould of business. “There’s no gloss or fairy-floss here,� he said. “We don’t give the big corporate spiel.� “At the end of the day people want to know what you can do for them, how well you can do it and how much it’s going to cost. “It is a more personal approach here.�

Raiders in the pink

Clubs of all ages across the country will be hard at it on Pink Stumps Day. Insert: McGrath Foundation symbols will be showing up all through Australia in the coming weeks.

By KRYSTEN MANUEL THE Wodonga Raiders Cricket Club will be hosting a Pink Stumps Day at Birallee Park on Saturday 2 March and are looking for support from businesses and individuals. So far, the club has organised a first grade match on Saturday between the Wodonga and Howlong cricket clubs, food, drink, an auction for a variety of memorabilia and an afternoon tea. The sponsors’ day will also coincide with Pink Stumps in a bid to get as much support as possible. The Howlong Cricket Club has also organised a Pink Stumps second grade match the following day at their home ground and will be playing the Raiders. “We want to raise as much money

as we can,” Raiders president, Andrew Mann said. “We have organised some memorabilia so we can have an auction on the day. “We have a couple of signed cricket bats from Cricket Victoria with the Bushrangers’ signatures, each player will sign their pink hat and we’ll auction that off too, and we’ve had Merv Hughes sign some hats and pink balls. “We are also throwing the doors open to the public for an afternoon tea.” Mr Mann said the Raiders are excited to raise money for such a worthy cause that touches everyone in some way. “Earlier this season we had our coach’s mother pass away suddenly

from cancer,” he said. “The Raiders have got involved because cancer in general is going to touch every individual at some stage. “People always know someone who has been affected by it.” Mr Mann said they were still looking for businesses to come forward and contribute in any way they could, as well as individuals who could help by simply coming on the day or purchasing a ticket to the afternoon tea. The club is aiming to raise between $3,000 and $5,000 and is looking to make it an annual event. The match will start at 1pm at Birallee Park on 2 March. For more details or to purchase a ticket to the afternoon tea, call Andrew on 0423 001 124.

Jones shakes out By TREVOR JACKSON

BRAD Jones may be playing down his team’s successful shake-down at Eastern Creek on the weekend, but he certainly seems quietly pleased with the effort. The test day was the first with all four manufacturers, Holden, Ford, Nissan and Mercedes on track together in the new cars and showed many teams still have a bit of work to do ahead of the Clipsal 500 season opener in Adelaide beginning on 28 February. But while many teams were battling with the Car of the Future format, the Border team produced the goods, setting fastest time on soft tyres with Jason Bright and fastest time on hard tyres with Fabian Coulthard. “Fabian was two-tenths quicker than Craig Lowndes on hard tyres, Brighty did the fastest lap on soft tyres and Fabian finished second on soft tyres,” Jones said. “But there’s still a long way to go. It’s the very first hit-out of the year, everyone is shaking all the problems out of the cars, trying different set-ups and working through test programs. “In this instance, one swallow certainly doesn’t make a summer, but I think it’s a good spot to start. “I’d much rather be first and sec-

ond than 18th and 19th.” With Clipsal fast approaching Jones said there was a lot of work to do, including ensuring the reliability of the cars and keeping on the pace. “In this sport, people catch up quickly, but I’m not too worried about that,” he said. “I’m sure Triple Eight will go back to the drawing board and bounce out at Adelaide being very fast but for us the trick is now getting reliability into the cars. No-one has completed a long run with one of these cars. It’s fantastic we’re fast, but we also need to be reliable to get a result at Clipsal. “We’ll be on our way over there in less than a week so it’s important to go over the cars comprehensively and find any potential problems.” Jones says he’s excited about the new era in the sport and is expecting good support from fans. “It’s a very exciting time for V8 Supercars with a whole new car, new manufacturers and lots exciting stuff going on,” he said. “I think the fans will accept it - it’s good to have a couple of other manufacturers involved. “The Nissan is surprisingly fast and the Benz sounds amazing. “I think it’s great for the sport.”

Brad Jones is excited about the future of V8 Supercars and his team’s successful test at Sydney on the weekend.

Grand old Granya Grind

Jess Laws with her swag of gold medals from the Victorian Track Masters in Melbourne.

By TREVOR JACKSON

Medal detector By TREVOR JACKSON FIVE times World Masters champion, Jess Laws has just returned victorious from the Victorian Masters Track Championships held at Darebin velodrome in Melbourne on the weekend. The Border cyclist managed a impressive haul of four gold medals and an Australian record - the perfect start to a huge year of cycling. Her record came in the flying 200 event while she gained gold medals for the 500-metre time trial, the 2000-metre pursuit, the sprint event which included the flying 200 as a heat and the five-kilometre scratch race. Laws said she was pleased with her success and felt she still had room for improvement. An injury over Christmas hampered her preparation and some technical mistakes during the races meant she could have returned even faster times. “I’ve only been back training for around five weeks so I’m not really in ideal form,” she said. “Over Christmas I suffered an upper-back injury and couldn’t use my arms properly. I was going to compete in the Victorian Christmas carnivals which would have been the ideal preparation. “I won the time trial but it wasn’t as fast as I wanted to go. All the little technical things count

- I hadn’t done any start-training out of the gates, my upper-body strength wasn’t what it should be, my gearing was a little too big, so we know I can improve on that.” Breaking the Australian record for the flying 200 metres again could have been faster according to Laws, placing her in an ideal position for the year ahead. “When I set the record for the flying 200 my gear was a little too big again and I didn’t really get on top of it,” she said. “I was really rapt I broke the record and we know I have about an extra three-tenths of a second in me. I still think I have more in me for the pursuit as well, so that’s a real positive.” And Laws will need every second she can get as she approaches the Australian championships in April, followed by the UCI World Masters Track Championships at Manchester in October. Being the last year in her current age category, 35-39 years, she’s even more driven to taste victory. “I’m hoping to improve on all my times at the Australian championships,” she said. “If I do that, it should put me in medal contention. Because I’ve already won five world masters titles, my goal is obviously to win at Manchester so it’s going to be a big year.”

WOMEN’S national cycling will be a highlight at this Saturday’s Lake Hume Challenge with the Bicycle Superstore women’s national road team in town. Border cyclist Lisa Barry has become an integral part of the team as has Benalla cyclist, and Albury Wodonga Mountain Bikers member Felicity Wardlaw. Both women will be on hand with the rest of the team and will be joining the fund-raising event in the 130-kilometre Granya Grind. Those taking the long route on the day will be able to ride along with the national team and get advice on various aspects of the sport from the professional riders. And later that day there will be a Q&A back at the Lavington Bicycle Superstore with the team, their podiatrist, bike fitter, a representative from bike supplier Lapierre and various others involved with the team. Anyone interested will be able to mingle with the team and ask any questions relating to women’s professional road cycling. Lavington store owner and Director Sportif for the team, Grant Norton said it was a great opportunity for local riders to gain first-hand knowledge of the sport. “There’ll be plenty of people to talk to for those who want to go up that extra level into a national team,” Mr Norton explained.

“There are a lot of women who race regionally and they just don’t know how to jump up to those pro-ranks. “Women’s cycling in Albury has just gone crazy. We have so many women coming in to the store now who are starting out and they just want to put their foot in the door, to see what it’s all about. “I think it’s very important to have a national team here to talk about it.” Mr Norton said it was also important for local cyclists to understand the sacrifices many women make to follow their passion, and this was the ideal opportunity to hear that first hand. “A lot of the women travel every weekend or second weekend nationally, so they’re away from their partners and family,” he said. “They all work full time so they have to juggle their training, sometimes up to 20 hours a week. When you put that on top of a 40-hour work load, it’s a big commitment.” Anyone interested in meeting the team can simply participate in the event on Saturday or head down the Bicycle Superstore in Lavington between 4-6pm. Those wanting further details on the Lake Hume Challenge, including the Granya Grind, a 100-kilometre Tallangatta ride and the 40 kilometre Weir Wall Waddle can contact Reg Hinton on 0487 431 228.
