Miserable year for sufferers as normal medications fail

By BLAIR THOMSON CASES of hay fever and asthma have sky-rocketed on the Border. Local emergency departments have seen a substantial increase in people needing treatment for asthma and pharmacies are selling out of hay fever medication. Dr Bruce Graham from the school of biomedical sciences at CSU in Wagga said pollen counts were the highest he had seen since starting the job in 2008. “It’s the highest I’ve seen it in years,” he said.

“When the thunderstorms come through it picks up all the grains which explode and release granules that can be breathed right into the lungs, causing asthma. “There’s certainly an issue in Wagga where we collect the pollen counts and you can be pretty sure it will be high in Albury because it has similar weather patterns.” Albury Terry White Chemists owner Jim Cominos has seen a huge spike in people needing hay fever medication. “It’s one of the worst areas na-

tionwide for hay fever sufferers,” he said. “Every year I find people that move to Albury Wodonga and the wider area that have never suffered from hay fever and from October, leading up to Christmas, suddenly they feel miserable. “We’re in a rural area surrounded by land and a lot of Paterson’s Curse and a lot of grasses, and once that dries out those pollens really play havoc.” According to Mr Cominos, many people have found the hay

fever harder to get rid of this year. “What I’ve found this year is that anti-histamines are not helping people, they’re not strong enough on their own,” he said. “People might sometimes need extra products to be able to control their symptoms, whereas in past years an antihistamine would usually control the problem on its own. “The other thing you find is that you’re selling out of products because your selling patterns change. “Products get cleared out in a few days.”

NewsWeekly spoke to several pharmacies reporting a similar scenario. “It’s the busiest we’ve had it for several years,” Mr Cominos said. Director of the Public Health Unit of Greater Southern Area Health Tracey Oakman said there had been a “significant increase” in people attending local hospitals with asthma symptoms. “I think the import thing is that people carry their asthma medication over the next couple of days,” she said.

EMERGENCY: Kevin Dodds at a simulated bushfire emergency. Picture: BLAIR THOMSON. By BLAIR THOMSON POLICE and other emergency service personnel joined together to battle a raging inferno this week. Thankfully, the fire was part of a simulated training exercise aimed at improving the way local services respond to emergency situations. Representatives from the police, fire departments, ambulance service and other groups had to work together in response to the bushfire emergency under Operation Remus. Program co-ordinator Inspector Kevin Dodds said the skills learnt on the day would be vital to combating a real emergency. “It’s very important that they work together,” Insp Dodds said. “It helps to ensure there’s good cohesion, good communication and good decision making. “By preparing yourself a number of times in how you would respond to an emergency, people become more comfortable in actually performing that role.” While the various groups regularly con-

duct their own training, responding to the simulated scenario has its own benefits. “It has that element of realism and puts them to that higher standard of training,” Insp Dodds said. “They do practise quite well and it gives them the assurance that they’re doing it right. “This program took nine months to write, it has a lot of video and maps and interactivity between the syndicates. “It’s a simulated exercise rather than a desktop exercise.” The training comes as the Border braces for a high bushfire danger period with grass and other plant material highly built up in the region. “It’s timely,” Insp Dodds said. “This can ensure that if an emergency does occur in NSW they’ll be better equipped to deal with it. “This is the first time the training exercise has come to Albury following a visit to Wagga last year.” The program used a hi-tech video and computing system designed for use at the Sydney Olympics and counter terrorism.

NWEDITORIAL

The ‘Border’s own’ ailment causes chaos NEWS that medical practitioners and pharmacists are being run off their feet by people seeking relief from the symptons of hay fever will come as no surprise to literally thousands of Border residents. For the past month or so life has been almost a living hell for those who are regular hay fever sufferers. For some reason the good rains of winter and early spring have made the Border hay fever central. In some ways this is nothing new. For years people who have moved to this district from areas where hay fever hardly exists, have found they have a whole new health issue from September to late December. For most, the rapid improvement in the efficiency of hay fever relief medication has allowed sufferers to go about their normal activities with a minimum of inconvenience. But this year has been something different. Streaming eyes and noses have been a normal part of the lives of sufferers. And medication, that in the past has worked well, has been almost useless. The storms of this week will no doubt make a difference as pollens and seeds, especially from rye grass, have been knocked to the ground. In the meantime, we can only hope life is not too unpleasant for sufferers.

Fine dining on high SHARING: Di Mant will share her project in Wodonga with groups in New Zealand.

Neighbourhood house spreads word to Kiwis BIRALLEE Neighbourhood House will share the knowledge it has gained from its Our Table To Yours/Our Garden To Yours projects in New Zealand this month. People can check out the house’s Facebook page (facebook.com/Birhouse) to keep up-to-date with its trip from November 12 to 19. You can also like the page to see what courses are available. The projects combined deliver around 120 freshly cooked meals to those in the community who need assistance including people who are unwell, palliative care, Ronald McDonald’s Family Room, churches and disadvantaged people. The service is free and completely run by volunteers who have varied roles from helping to keep the vegetable garden going through to delivering the meals. Birallee Neighbourhood House co-ordinator Di Mant and treasurer Sue Slater will head to Gisborne, New Zealand together to share the project. The pair is paying for their own travel costs for the trip, which shows how dedicated the committee is at Birallee Neighbourhood House. “We will be giving a series of papers and talks on our projects,” Ms Mant said. “The trip was organised by a senior social worker at the Gisborne Hospital. “We will present to the hospital board, indigenous groups and other interested groups.”

NICE VIEW: Brendon Cooper at Azotea, which will open next Friday. Picture: BLAIR THOMSON. By BLAIR THOMSON A NEW fine dining restaurant will open 14m above Dean Street next Friday (November 18). Azotea, which means “roof terrace” in Spanish, is the final stage of a $3m renovation at the Albion that was conceived almost five years ago. Albion co-owner Brendon Cooper said there had already been a lot of interest in the restaurant. “We’re really happy with the way it’s turned out,” he said. “There’s already a few nights that are booked out which is nice.” The restaurant will serve meals ranging from $32 to $42 and have a wide ranging tapas menu.

“It’s based on the whole experience of coming up and having a meal and having a drink,” Mr Cooper said. “There are a lot of choices … you could have a six course meal up here our just end up having tapas. “But it is geared more towards food than coming up and just having a drink.” Mr Cooper is hopeful the restaurant can weather the tough economic conditions putting the pressure on businesses. “It’s always going to play on your mind,” he said. “The economic times are a lot different now than when we first started this venture the best part of 4½ years ago. “We were sort of locked into

it, we had our finances locked in back then. “We’ve had to do a few things differently based on where the economy was at, but our theory is that if we can get through the next couple of years, things should only get easier.” Azotea, which features 360 degree views taking in the monument and mountains, will be open from 5pm from Wednesday to Saturday and from 9am on Sunday through to a late lunch. “There’s probably been about 10 new staff that we’ve hired specifically for this,” Mr Cooper said. “It’s good to have a few Al-

bury people involved in it who’s whole lives are food and their whole aim is to sort of make it as good a food experience as they could come up with. “We’ve spent the last few weeks fine tuning everything and making a few changes and we’re really happy with where we’re at.” Mr Cooper said strict planning regulations and fire proofing the building had made the project quite difficult. Other renovations at the Albion included the downstairs area and upgrading the second level for live music and functions.

Tough times claim well-known Border pet store

FINALE: Jugularity will wind up the 2011 Cafe Culture Series.

‘Jugs’ to wind up successful culture series

By BLAIR THOMSON DEAN Street pet store K9Catfish will close for business tomorrow after more than 20 years in operation. The family-owned store has struggled to stay profitable in a tough economic climate, forcing the business to close, according to owner Dr Arthur Frauenfelder. “It’s a sad day,” he said. “Nobody wants to admit de-

feat, but that’s the way it is. “The main thing is that we’re making sure that the staff are looked after. “All of the staff are sad to see the store go but they realise that despite their efforts and the promotions we’ve had, it’s good business to close down now before it gets worse.” All five staff employed at the store have found new jobs. Dr Fraunfelder had spent the

tinue at a loss.” The store has held a sale since announcing the closure, with hundreds of customers snapping up remaining stock. Dr Frauenfelder expects to shut K9-Catfish tomorrow and sell the store fittings. “We wanted to give our loyal customers a chance to come in and clear the store out by selling everything at 50 per cent off.” Fish are the only pets left.

The last event of the Café Culture Series 2011 features the four piece band “Jugularity” also known as “the Jugs”. The band has been performing nationally and internationally for over 23 years and features Bruce Stephens, Gavan McCarthy, Ernie Gruner and Peter Vadiveloo. They play an energetic mix of folk, jazz, blues, lounge, rap and gypsy music in comedy-cabaret style. They can be serious, silly, romantic, rousing or funny. The roaming Casanova approach of the lead singer ensures that the audience is involved throughout the show. Wielding their guitar, double bass, violin, harmonica, kazoo and percussion instruments as well as their combined voices, Jugularity create a light hearted, celebratory atmosphere synonymous with jug band music and a fitting end to a diversely rich year of live shows. The Café Culture Series is delivered by Just Shows to Go and tours throughout Regional Victoria. The program for 2012 will be announced during interval at the performance. The show is presented by Arts Wodonga and is supported by the Victorian Government through Arts Victoria and the Community Support Fund. The event will be held at Arts Space Wodonga on Sunday, November 20, at 5pm. Bookings at Arts Space Wodonga – phone 6022 9600. Tickets will be available at the door if not sold out.

Iconic restuarant to have ‘exciting new future’

Fonzies fades into history

| localnews

Cup day holiday review BUSINESS owners are being asked their opinion on the half day holiday granted for the Albury Gold Cup. Due to changes to the NSW Public Holiday legislation, Albury Council is required to nominate whether to retain the Albury Gold Cup as a half day public holiday or as a local event day. The decision relates to the nature of the holiday, not whether it continues. The council has asked Albury Northside Chamber of commerce to canvas its members for their views on this issue. Further information can be found on the website – www.alburynorthside.com.au/chamberactivities/ Albury Gold Cup Carnival. The chamber will be taking feedback from its members until Wednesday, November 16, by phoning 6023 0100 or by email to manager@ alburynorthside.com.au The matter will also be on the agenda for discussion at the Albury monthly meeting on Tuesday, November 15.

By BLAIR THOMSON DEAN Street restaurant Fonzies has been sold. The American diner-themed business, which featured a range of memorabilia including a statue of Elvis Presley, shut this week and has had its windows blacked out. It will be stripped and re-opened as a new restaurant. Owner Ben Sudano said an “exciting” new food outlet would be opening in the building. “They’re doing something new and exciting in there, something which Albury’s never seen before,” he said. “The owners don’t want me to say what it is at the moment, but there’s going to be a different theme, it’s all going to change.” Mr Sudano had run Fonzies, which was formerly a Lebanese cafe, for three years. “I built it myself,” he said. “I had a dream one night and I woke up and I built it and Fonzies is laid out exactly as it was in my dream. “Nobody there knew me as Ben, they all knew me as Fonzy. “We appreciate all the customers and we want to thank them for their custom over the years.” Mr Sudano said he would help set up the new restaurant with its new owners, who have moved to the area from interstate. “The theme will no longer be rock and roll,” Mr Sudano said. “It’s going to be something a bit different.”

Know rights,schoolies warned Indian Tandoori Restaurant

WARNING: Greg Aplin has advice for schoolies.

GRADUATING students heading to 2011 schoolies celebrations should scrub up on their consumer rights and take some basic but important precautions when planning their activities, according to Greg Aplin. The member for Albury said schoolies can easily end up as out-of-pocket consumers if they fail to do their research and neglect the fine print when purchasing goods and services. “For many young people this will be their first experience looking after a holiday budget and paying their way,” he said. Young and inexperienced consumers need to be aware of their rights and responsibilities, particularly when it comes to booking travel and accommodation.”

New South Wales Schoolies runs from November 26 to December 11. More than 70,000 NSW Year 12 students will graduate this year and many are expected to converge on popular locations including Byron Bay, the NSW south coast, the Queensland Sunshine and Gold Coasts, Fiji, Bali and Vanuatu. Mr Aplin advised students booking accommodation with friends to be sure to ask how many are allowed to stay in the room as failure to do so can leave you far from home without a roof over your head. With so many young people together in one place, scammers and con artists see the youngsters as the perfect prey for their illegal activities.

CSU joins study of Koori education Exploring the experiences of how Aboriginal children in urban areas move into school is the focus of a major research project that includes two senior education researchers at Charles Sturt University. Professors Sue Dockett and Bob Perry from the Murray School of Education at CSU in Albury-Wodonga will take part in $360,000 research funded by the Australian Research Council over three years. Starting in 2012, the project will follow the progress of Aboriginal children to the end of Year 2, in their communities in south-western Sydney, through the eyes of family, community and educators and the children themselves. Titled â&#x20AC;&#x153;An ecological study of school transition and the early years of school for Aboriginal children in an urban communityâ&#x20AC;?, the project builds on the earlier Gudaga study that tracked the health, development and service use of 125 Aboriginal children from birth to five years of age in the same location as the new project. â&#x20AC;&#x153;These detailed data provide a unique opportunity to consider

the complex individual and community factors that contribute to positive outcomes for Aboriginal children in their early school years,â&#x20AC;? Prof Dockett said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The project aims to follow this group of children into the early years of their schooling, exploring their transition into school and mapping their achievements in light of previously measured indicators of their earlier growth and development. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We seek to document and analyse what constitutes a successful transition for an Aboriginal child living in an urban area. â&#x20AC;&#x153;This will help educators and policy makers create tailored programs for these children and their families.â&#x20AC;? The research is supported by state and local Aboriginal community health and education organisations, and will influence education policies and practices for Aboriginal children, their families and communities. Â The research team is led by Associate Prof Lynn Kemp and includes other researchers from the University of NSW. The project is due to be completed by the end of 2014.

Travelling minister back â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;homeâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; for seminar

VISIT: Ray Cowling and his wife Helena at the Albury Convention Centre on Sunday.

RAY Cowling last spent time in Albury-Wodonga almost 70 years ago â&#x20AC;&#x201C; and he has fond memories of his early schooling at the Albury Primary School. Ray, who left the area in 1944 as a young man, has spent the last 44 years as a travelling minister. He returned last weekend as a speaker for a seminar attended by over 700 delegates from the Riverina and Border areas. Jehovahâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Witnesses have up-

wards of 150 seminars throughout Australia each year. The seminar this past weekend lasted two days, covering a range of religious topics. The theme chosen for this current series was â&#x20AC;&#x153;Let Godâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Name Be Sanctified.â&#x20AC;? The sequence of lectures, illustrated parts and discussions concluded on Sunday with a talk given by Mr Cowling on the gatheringâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s theme.

Wodonga is leading way in recycling initiatives

AS part of national recycling week Wodonga Council and Planet Ark are targeting car batteries, electronic waste and office paper. They say many householders and businesses are unsure of how to dispose of these materials. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We are good recyclers of newspapers, aluminium cans and milk and juice cartons, however, what to do with e-waste is still the biggest problem facing Australian households and businesses,â&#x20AC;? says Planet Arkâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s manager of recycling programs Janet Sparrow.

â&#x20AC;&#x153;Our two recycling information services receive hundreds of thousands of enquiries a year with the largest group being about e-waste.â&#x20AC;? Wodonga residents can find local recycling options on the Wodonga Council page of Planet Arkâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s RecyclingNearYou.com.au website â&#x20AC;&#x201C; a service which provides reuse, recycling and safe disposal information for more than 32 different materials.

re-use, and saves tonnes of material each year from ending up in landfill. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Wodonga is very lucky to have a diversion facility in the city,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Items taken to the station are sorted and then sent on to recycle or re-use, or sold in the shop onsite. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Wodonga Council is also a proud supporter of the Halve Waste campaign that aims to reduce the amount of rubbish being taken to the Albury landfill site.â&#x20AC;?

Printer cartridges, mobile phones and batteries are three of the most common forms of electronic waste and there are effective programs to deal with them. The Cartridges 4 Planet Ark and MobileMuster programs both run through all Officeworks stores and participating Australian Post outlets. Cartridges and mobiles are recycled to high environmental standards. Children can get involved by doing the â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Recycle Right Quizâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; at

RecyclingWeek.PlanetArk.org/ Quiz Planet Ark founded national recycling week as a community education campaign in 1996, with the aim of bringing a national focus to recycling and minimising waste at home, at work and in the community.

Family still looking for Ned’s plot

Jazz night to aid Asher THE Jazz Basement will be the venue for a night to support young Asher Hayne on Saturday. Asher is in the Royal Children’s Hospital in Melbourne recovering from a 12½-hour operation to remove a brain tumour. He is expected to stay in hospital for a further eight months undergoing chemotherapy. Parents Ian and Amy are staying in Ronald McDonald House to be with their son. Mum Amy is a well respected singer and member of the Border musical scene and is a member of the Peter Massey Quintet and has also sung with Hidden Agenda. Both bands will play at the Jazz Basement on Saturday night. The music will start at 8pm with the bar open from 7.30pm. Entry is $20 and $15 concession with all proceeds going to the Hayne family.

RESTING PLACE: Leigh Olver says the family is yet to decide where the final resting place for Ned Kelly will be located. Picture: BLAIR THOMSON.

By BLAIR THOMSON THE remains of outlaw bushranger Ned Kelly are likely to return to the North East. Victorian Attorney-General Robert Clark this week agreed to hand Kelly’s bones, minus his missing skull, to his descendants, who will select a suitable resting place for them. Kelly’s great great nephew Leigh Olver, who’s DNA was recently used to identify the remains, told NewsWeekly it was an “important step” for the family. “It’s been a great decision made to hand the remains back to the family,” he said. “It’s a logical conclusion to have him rest in peace in a place that’s very appropriate and dignified for him and something he would have wanted. “It appears at this point in time that the bones will end up in the North East but nothing is set in concrete yet. “But the general family consensus is that that general area is an appropriate place for him.” Mr Olver said some relatives thought Greta Cemetary was a suitable spot. “Ned’s mother’s buried there and Jim Kelly and a few other descendants,” he said. “A lot of them are kept in un-



marked graves and kept quiet. “I know there are a lot of people that want to have a public ceremony and that will be our next issue to deal with.” Representatives from each branch of Ned’s siblings will decide on the resting place, whether he has a marked or unmarked grave and what the public’s involvement will be. “I think the public in general will be interested in getting involved in some way,” he said. “He’s waited 131 years to this point to find a resting place so it’s not that urgent to have him buried this weekend. “There’s a lot to consider and it’s an ongoing saga.” Wangaratta mayor and Kelly descendant Anthony Griffith was also keen to point out a decision on a resting place was yet to be made. “In all likelihood it will be in the weeks and probably months before he is buried,” he said. “It’s a bit unprecedented to have such an old body returned and there’s a few legalities that we have to go through.” The old Beechworth jail was raised as a final resting place but Mr Olver had previously said it probably wasn’t suitable.

Student’s outward bound course means week with ...

No creature comforts Seventy two Albury High School students have returned from a seven day wilderness adventure with valuable life lessons about perseverance and leadership as part of a continuing program with Outward Bound Australia. The Year 8 students left their mobiles, iPods, makeup and other creature comforts back at home in Albury. They then put their resilience to the test with a range of physical, social and mental challenges aimed to take them out of their comfort zones in the bush surroundings of ACT’s Namadgi National Park. The course offers a personal challenge to the students of their perceived limits and encourages them to push against the easy way out through challenges such as abseiling, rock-climbing, hiking and learning how to become self-sufficient. The concept of leadership was also introduced to the Year 8s through navigation challenges where the students take turns navigating teams through the national park. Student Darcy Larkin said the course has been a life changing experience. “Outward Bound has helped me become more independent, fitter and healthier,” she said. “Everyone was so supportive and we made a great team.” Michael Heran, another student who participated in the

Community groups benefit from field days Education, early childhood services, sporting clubs and community groups were beneficiaries of almost $250,000 from this year’s Henty Machinery Field Days. Field Days chairman Ross Edwards said by providing essential services to the running of the three day event in September, a variety of community groups benefit. “We rely on community groups at the field days for tasks such as organising car parking, running the visitor gates, catering, cleaning amenities, operating the bar, keeping the rubbish away … the list goes on,” Mr Edwards said. “And we think this helps create the unique friendly atmosphere at Henty.” Among the groups to benefit are Henty Early Childhood Association; Culcairn, Osborne, Mangoplah and Henty football clubs; Henty Park Tennis Club; Culcairn Swimming Pool Committee; Holbrook and Henty Rotary clubs; Yerong Creek and Henty CWA; Henty Catering Association; Henty Public School P&C Association; Yerong Creek Public School P&C Association; St Paul’s Primary School; St Joseph’s Primary School; St Patrick’s Primary School; Pleasant Hills Public School P&C Association and Walbundrie community groups. Alison Campbell, president of the Henty Catering Association which runs three food outlets, said the money raised in those sheds in 2011 was divided amongst the Henty Public School P&C Association, the Henty Medical Centre Committee and Billabong High School P&C Association. The 2012 event is the 50th anniversary of the field days.

Part-time job can save tax If you are of age pension age and receive a pension you will be able to earn up to $250 from employment each fortnight and it won’t be included in your income. If your employment income is less than the $250 work bonus per fortnight, then the difference between this income and the $250 will be added to your work bonus balance. If you are not working, the entire $250 is added to your balance. Your work bonus balance starts from scratch on July 1, 2011 and can accumulate to a maximum amount of $6500.

It can be used to discount employment income above $250 in future fortnights. The work bonus calculation is in addition to the income free area. The work bonus is an incentive for age pensioners to remain in the workforce. The change to the work bonus is designed to let you use up to the maximum discount of $6500 even if you only work occasionally. Once you have a work bonus balance, you can work for short periods with little or no effect on your pension. If you receive a transitional rate of pension, Centrelink will continue to com-

pare your rate (which has no work bonus) with the rate introduced in September 2009 (which includes the work bonus).

Opposition accusations of age discrimination and got rid of all super contribution age limits, but forgot to apply this to salary sacrificing and putting your after-tax savings into super to a maximum of $150,000 a year,” Mr Versteege said. “While the mature age employment effect of these changes is laudable, people over 75 are also concerned about putting their life savings into super where the investment return is not taxed. “CPSA calls on the Government to extend the abolition of the age limit to all super contributions,” Mr Versteege said.

Is there a super windfall for you? MILLIONS of dollars in unclaimed super have been reported by Australian super funds. Is some of it yours? Many people lose track of their super over the years, particularly as they change jobs and addresses. Super savings become “unclaimed” once a fund has not received contributions from the member for at least two years, and five years have passed since that member was successfully contacted. Searching for unclaimed amounts is as simple as calling 13 3865. You can also log on to the Tax Office web site www.ato.gov.au

Despite efforts to abolish the age limit of 75 for super contributions, the changes only apply to compulsory employer contributions, according to the Combined Pensiors and Superannuants Association. Association policy co-ordinator Paul Versteege said that from July 1, 2013, the employee age of 70 at which employers no longer have to pay the super guarantee will be abolished. Initially, the age would merely be increased to 75, but the Government changed its mind. “It seems the Government responded to

Team effort a win for aged care services PROUD: Residents of Kensington Gardens took pride in showing off their village to visitors.

Residents show off village THE facilities of Kensington Gardens were open for public inspection at a highly successful open day. Visitors were greeted by a resident from Kensington Gardens and handed over a bag with more information about the village as well as some extra free goodies. Residents accompanied visitors, showing them around the club house area, and answered questions and importantly gave a first hand account of life in the village. Visitors also enjoyed a free sausage sizzle and people enjoyed a coffee, tea or a drink from the bar area, to give them the opportunity to experience the way the existing residents enjoy life. A bus service was provided to drive visi-

WODONGA Council’s aged care team in partnership with Wodonga TAFE’s aged care team recently took out the LGPro Aged and Disability Services Award in the Award for Outstanding Team Contribution. The state award is a culmination of the council’s and TAFE’s work during the past five years. Wodonga Council’s manager community support and aged care Debbie MacKinlay said the partnership has focussed on the idea of incorporating Certificate III Aged Care and Certificate III Home and Community Care students into the Planned Activity Group and Home and Community Care as part of their learning around maintaining the psycho-social wellbeing of older people. “This is a terrific example of two wellknown organisations working together to increase client-care and help educate aged care professionals,” she said. “The aged care team as well as many clients have enjoyed working with the TAFE students and will continue to do so into the future.” Wodonga TAFE’s manager community services and health, Jenny Gordon, is thrilled with the success of the program.

“This award celebrates a unique and sustainable partnership between Wodonga TAFE and Wodonga Council, which has mutual benefits for staff, students, and service recipients. It is certainly a win-win situation for all,” she said. The activities currently in place between the council’s aged care team and Wodonga TAFE include: • Undertaking the community care component of placement within the Home and Community Care team at Wodonga Council. These placements have led to a greater knowledge of and experience in the provision of HACC services in a practical sense’ • A greater awareness of HACC services in the community through class presentations by community carers and staff from the council’s aged care team; • Planning, resourcing and delivering activities through The Willows, a Planned Activity Group which provides meaningful programs for frail aged people and adults with disabilities living in the community; and • Undertaking interviews on behalf of Wodonga Council evaluating consumer satisfaction with HACC. This has led to improvement of services.

Kensington Gardens is a leading lifestyle estate that offers affordable and independent luxury living to the over 50’s. Surround yourself with like minded people, fantastic facilities and a great range of houses to choose from...an unbeatable combination.

“It’s the ideal place to live, come and see for yourself.”

lIVINGnOW PLANTS THAT MAKE A

STATEMENT

lants that make a statement, either as a result of clipping or have a naturally striking form, have a place in every garden, no matter what sort of style or design the gardener has adopted. They can enhance either a formal or informal design by adding constructional elements to the garden planting. The trick is to use them sparingly. Stand-out, or architectural plants, which create highlights in your garden, can be used in every way, maybe to lift an otherwise dull border with their form or interesting foliage. The shape alone might transform part of your garden, adding height and helping create the framework. They can certainly be planted to act as an individual feature plant, or else as an exclamation mark at the end of a bed, at your entrance, at the top or bottom of steps, or even to introduce a new part of the garden. Architectural plants always have a distinct, strong form and this is as important as colour. Their foliage is usually attractive as well, either its shape or the colour. Flowers are often a bonus. Plants which are evergreen with strong structure can form the backbone of your design because they are always there. This can be particularly

important in a cottage garden in which many plants only flower once a year, and others are deciduous. A good idea when choosing an architectural plant for a particular spot in your garden, is to look at a black and white garden photo in which the plant features, so you can see how its form adds to the photo. You are not distracted by flowers and colour. Plants with good form stand out. Architectural plants can be perennials, shrubs or trees. Many of them come originally from drier climatic regions which is good for us! Think of many of the succulents like yuccas and agaves. Their colour, the shape of their leaves as well as the texture of the foliage allow the plants to make a statement. Among the most often used architectural plants today are the ornamental grasses because they are softer than so many plants. Not only do they have a defined shape, but they cause plants nearby to stand out. They can be used as a uniform border too. Slender conifers are also used regularly to make a statement, especially in creating an avenue and guiding the eye towards something the gardener wants seen. Good examples are Juniperus

scopulorum “Skyrocket”, and where a tree is required, the Italian cypress, Cupressus sempervirens. Hedges can be an architectural feature in any garden. They can divide the garden into rooms or else create the boundary. Hedges can be formal or informal, high or low, dense or allowing a glimpse into a new area, depending which plant is chosen. Box (Buxus sempervirens) of course is one of the most popular hedging plants. It can be clipped into any shape, or to whatever height is needed. Rosemary and lavender are two popular choices for hedging too. They offer the added benefits of flowers and fragrance, especially when they are freshly clipped. For a taller hedge, yews are the traditional plant used, but they are very well known as being very slow growers. Other conifers, such as Port Jackson pine or Leighton’s Green cypress, are being chosen instead. Whatever the statement you want to make in the garden, and whatever size you imagine it being, there will be a suitable plant. Make sure it will be happy in the conditions which you have to offer or it will look neither healthy and happy, nor make a statement.

Garden tasks: ✓ Marigolds are a great annual

to plant. They are so bright and cheerful, enjoy our summer heat, and also have insect-repelling qualities, so if planted near fruit and vegetables they can help preserve your products.

✓ Tomatoes will be healthier if dusted

regularly with some product like Yates Tomato and Vegetable Dust, which has both disease and insect control.

✓ Some roses, like the rambling roses

(e.g. the Banksias) only flower in the spring. Prune them after flowering finishes, and then feed them with something like Dynamic Lifter Advance for Roses.

✓ It is a good time to feed lawns

BARB LOWERY

ASPARAGUS ANTIPASTO (Serves 4) 2 bunches green asparagus spears, trimmed 4 roma tomatoes, diced ½ cup fresh corn kernels, uncooked 12 black olives 1 tblspn chopped parsley or chives 2 tblspns extra Virgin Olive Oil 1 tblspn lemon juice 1 small clove garlic, crushed salt and freshly ground black pepper 200g haloumi cheese, cut into 5mm slices olive oil 4 slices prosciutto lemon, for garnish Plunge asparagus into a large pan of boiling water and cook for 1-2 minutes. Drain and refresh spears under cold water. Drain again and pat dry with paper towel. In a medium bowl combine

the tomatoes, corn, olives and herbs. Add the olive oil, lemon juice and garlic. Season with salt and pepper and toss gently. Heat a spoonful of olive oil in a frying pan and cook haloumi for 1-2 minutes turning once until golden brown on both sides. Arrange asparagus on a serving platter and spoon tomato mixture over. Add haloumi, prosciutto and lemon and serve with crusty bread.

Paul’s Wine Pick Asparagus has a love affair with Sauvignon Blanc – they are as well matched as Mickey and Minnie Mouse. If you like lots of tropical fruit, buy a New Zealand “Savvy”. But for a few extra dollars, grab a Sancerre or Pouilly Fume from the Loire Valley (France). The combination will be hard to beat.

hether it’s green, purple or white, now is the time to enjoy freshly cut Aussie asparagus. It’s a unique, versatile and nutritious vegetable and is a good source of folate, vitamins A,C and E, and dietary fibre.

ASPARAGUS - NOW AN EVERYDAY VEGETABLE

As recently as the early 2000s Australians considered fresh asparagus a “gourmet” vegetable and delicacy to be eaten on special occasions. Today supplies are generous so it’s become an everyday vegetable. Use this healthy ingredient in canapés, soups, entrees, salads, mains and quick snacks. I’ve even tasted a sensational, silky white asparagus mousse filling in a tart.

EASY COOKING METHODS

To stir-fry – cut green spears into 2cm diagonal pieces. Heat a wok and add peanut or vegetable oil. Add asparagus, finely sliced mushrooms, garlic, fresh ginger and shallots. Stir-fry for two minutes, or until crisptender. Add a splash of oyster

sauce and a little water and toss until asparagus is slightly glazed. To barbecue, grill or roast – drizzle green asparagus spears with olive oil (add crushed garlic if you like) Sprinkle with sea salt and freshly ground black pepper. Throw on the barbie or grill or roast spears at 200 C, turning occasionally until asparagus browns and is just tender. To microwave – put one bunch of green asparagus in a clean plastic freezer bag. Add 2-3 teaspoons extra virgin olive oil and ground pepper. Tie the bag very loosely. Microwave on high for two minutes or until asparagus is just tender. To serve, cut bag open onto a plate, taking care as the bag will release steam when opened. Sprinkle with sea salt. To serve asparagus cold for salads, cook trimmed green spears in boiling water until crisp-tender and drain. Then ‘refresh’ by plunging spears into iced water for two minutes only. Drain again and pat dry on paper towels. Cover and refrigerate. Do this a day ahead so you are ready to whip up a salad in no time.

“PENNIES” FROM HEAVEN – THE ICONIC WINES OF PENFOLDS

with

hen Dr Christopher Penfold purchased the Magill Estate in 1844, he would have never envisaged the footprint he would leave on the Australian wine trade. A century later, Penfolds became the “play thing” of the big corporates including Adelaide’s Steamship Company and then Southcorp (now part of Treasury Wine Estates). Although Penfolds focused on fortified wines in the first half of the last century, the 60s and 70s saw a dramatic shift to red wine production and a flirtation with premium white varieties in the 90s. I think I have more Penfolds reds in my cellar than any other maker, and I believe no other company has had a greater influence on wine drinkers in the past several decades.

The Stand-Out

Grange Hermitage is Australia’s number one red wine, and justifiably so. Mostly, it seems indestructible in the bottle and rarely does it disappoint. At a recent luncheon, I enjoyed a “flight” of four vintages of Grange, the star of which was a 1962 that was not only living, but still had years of life left.

The Special Bins

Max Schubert, the “inventor” of Grange, kept his early winemaking experiment secret from the Penfolds directors. In like fashion, other leg-

endary winemakers at Penfolds have since the 60s produced extremely small batches of handcrafted reds, using premium fruit from selected vineyards. Most of these wines were off the average drinker’s “radar”, as they were rarely seen in bottle shops and only occasionally in the auction scene. The 1962 Bin 60A Coonawarra Cabernet/ Barossa Shiraz is said to be one of the greatest Australian wines ever made. At our special lunch, my generous friends produced four of these Special Bin wines, from 1980 through to 1990. Each was remarkably fresh and complex, and all were wonderful expressions of the loving care of the original winemakers.

The Whites

Readers of this column will know that I encourage drinking of Aussie Chardonnay within five years of vintage, and for the better ones, certainly within 10 years. In the 90s, Penfolds threw a squillion dollars at white winemaking, in an attempt to “break into” this obvious gap in their product lineup. No expense was spared and the iconic “Yattarna” was born to parents of perfect fruit and expensive oak. It started life at a 100 bucks and even at that previously unheard of level, I suspect the Penfolds bean counters were wailing and gnashing their teeth at the cost of production. But the Penny whites have really never got off the ground. Sure,

they were yummy drops but Penfolds red wine fans did not quite “get it”. Nonetheless, our recent luncheon enjoyed a “flight” of four Chardy’s (two Special Bins and two Yattarna’s), which were lovely to see. The 1994 and 1995 were, predictably, a little “tired” but the 2000 and 2004 were remarkably fresh. The bottom line? The rule hasn’t changed – buy Oz Chardonnays by all means, but drink them within 10 years.

The Curiosities

My generous lunch companions managed to source two “sparkling” reds from the Penfolds museum stock (1961 and 1971). The bubbles had long gone but the base wine on the 1961 was incredibly fresh – an extraordinary experiment by Penfolds which, regrettably, they did not continue. My own contribution to lunch was a 1967 “Sauternes” – one of only two sweet Special Bins made in my lifetime. In brilliant condition it made a lovely foil to the savoury duck liver pate that accompanied. Alas, that was my only bottle – never to be seen again.

The Grand Finale

As if this sea of riches was not enough, my luncheon friends topped off the day with a 1945 “Grandfather” Tawny Port, and a 1964 Vintage Port – what a finale!

The Statistics

For the mathematically minded, the average age of the 21 luncheon bottles was 30 years, and the cumulative age 660 years! I shudder to think what the auction value of these Penfolds icons would have been but it was well into the thousands of dollars – I hasten to add that my friends did not pay that sort of money – in my case, the sweet wine was a gift and many of the other wines had been purchased years ago for much more reasonable amounts. That said, the unbridled generosity of my friends continues to be a humbling experience. Their philosophy? Forget the auction price – what greater pleasure than to share their special drops with 10 likeminded wine lovers. The memory of the experience will last a lot longer than a cheque in the bank.

And the food?

Great wine demands great food – “La Maison” on the Causeway provided seven courses that were beautifully matched to each wine “flight” – special mention should be made of the Moreton Bay Bug tortellini, and the “Duo of Lamb” which were stand out dishes – ask genial host Wassim (aka “Rocky”) Saliba to persuade his talented chef Stacey to put them on for you one day – you won’t be disappointed. Next week: Wine humour – some cartoons quips and quotes for your amusement.

REFORMED: Cold Chisel will play on the Border next Friday.

Chisel to belt out iconic numbers

By BLAIR THOMSON MORE than 12,000 people are set to pack into Gateway Lakes next Friday to watch reformed iconic rock act Cold Chisel blast out their hits. Headed by legendary front man Jimmy Barnes, the band has been performing to packed audiences across the nation as part of the Light the Nitro tour. Guitarist Ian Moss told NewsWeekly the band members felt there was still plenty to be achieved in Cold Chisel. “It’s the feeling of there being unfinished business and knowing that after all these years the band still has a lot to give,” he said. “We got back together for a oneoff show in 2009 and it felt so good and went so well that we thought we might as well keep doing it. “We’ve been nicely surprised by the response to it. “The tickets went on sale in July and Acer Arena was sold out in 20 minutes and Rod Laver Arena sold out in 30 minutes.” Formed in Adelaide in 1973 under the name Orange, Cold Chisel gained a reputation for hard hitting

live performances at pubs throughout Australia. Songs like Khe Sahn, Choir Girl and Flame Trees gathered the band a huge following, led by Barnes’ powerful voice. Despite their huge success, tensions simmered between band members and they called it quits in 1983. But according to Moss, things are now running smoothly. “We’re all pretty upbeat about the whole thing,” he said. “It feels fantastic, back with the old gang and out with the boys. “Everyone’s getting on really well, everyone’s playing great and playing great consistently. “It just fits like an old glove, as they say ... I can only think of one thing that might beat doing this,” he added with a laugh. Moss said the band had now reformed for good with a new album due in April and future tours in the pipeline. “We’re not going to sacrifice solo careers completely but if we can have our cake and eat it too, that will be good,” he said. “We’ve got a brand new album

which we play two songs from on the tour, and the whole idea of that is to propel us along.” While there’s one noticeable absence in the band’s line up – drummer Steve Prestwich died from a brain tumour operation earlier this year – he still features in the show. “It’s not really sad; we’re trying to make it a celebratory occasion and not a mournful occasion,” Moss said. “We try to keep it a bit of a surprise really, but he’s definitely a feature of the show.” Huge video screens will display the band’s Wodonga gig with a “massive” visual and audio show planned. “The band knows how to rock and ultimately it’s just enjoyable,” Moss said. “We’ve got songs that we never get sick of playing and songs that people never get sick of hearing. “We put a lot of work into it to make sure that we get it right.” Additional tickets have been added to the Gateway Lakes gig which is close to sold out.

TIME is currency in Andrew Niccol’s new film. It’s an intriguing idea. Rather than pay money for, say, a bus fare, people instead pay two hours of their time. Make a phone call and it will cost a minute, and a nice meal might cost a day or two. People age normally until 25, at which point they’re given a year to live as shown by a glowing green clock on their left arm. They must work in order to recharge their time. Hence the rich can live for cen-

turies while working class ghetto dwellers are constantly at risk of running out of time and dying. Set in a bleak, dystopian future with a strong tinge of George Orwell’s 1984, this sci-fi action film stars Justin Timberlake as Will Salas, an ordinary man thrust into an extraordinary situation when he inherits a century from a suicidal man. While that time is priceless, it makes him a marked man with gangs of time thieves constantly looking to twist people’s arms and suck the time out of them. As Will uses his new wealth to travel through the time zones that separate the rich from the poor, he soon learns that the world is un-

equal and a conspiracy to segregate society is at hand. The system is in fact rotten to the core. For a few men to be immortal, many must die. While the film is reasonably light-on in terms of futuristic gadgets, the hi-tech cars (which sound like they have electric V8 motors) and scenery are both fascinating. Gone are any artistic elements in buildings, instead replaced with huge, intimidating and utilitarian structures. It’s one of the most unique releases of the year and an interesting film from start to finish.

Border builders lead the way TWO Border companies have featured in the major housing industry awards. Flair Cabinets of Wodonga and Davis Sanders Homes were recognised for their outstanding work at the HIA-CSR Victorian Housing and Kitchen and Bathroom Awards at Crown Towers before a crowd of hundreds of industry leaders. Flair Cabinets was named as the winner of the best renovated kitchen up to $25,000. Davis Sanders homes also took out the commercial special purpose housing award for work at the Ronald McDonald family room at the Wodonga Hospital. F & J Sanders Builders won the house of the year award. Judged by industry professionals, the awards acknowledge the talent of designers, builders and building companies who plan and construct quality new housing and apartments, renovations and outdoor projects. The house of the year was described as offering the ultimate in energy efficiency and luxury. The Ronald McDonald family room was designed and constructed by Davis Sanders Homes at a cost of $548,000 and is attached to the Maternity Unit of Wodonga Hospital. This purpose built home away from home was designed to allow two families living in close proximity, private spaces, communal spaces, separate outdoor spaces and above all, the creature comforts of home while caring for their sick newborns in the Neonatal Intensive Care. The house is accessed via a

Bedrooms include their own ensuites plus a large disabled shower and toilet. The colour scheme has been professionally co-ordinated with the furniture and appliances in mind by the Davis Sanders Colour Consultant. The judges noted that the care and attention to detail throughout

reflects the pride and love infused throughout the whole project. “Due to the work being extensively donated, the trades have taken great pride in their work and the finish is exceptional,” they said. The Ronald McDonald Family Room has been funded via a grant from Ronald McDonald House Charities and major fund raising within the Albury Wodonga community over the past 2 years. The fund raising team still has $50,000

to raise to completely pay off the debt for this fabulous community resource that Albury Wodonga should be very proud of. Donations can be made by calling Laurel Butler on 0407 232 565 or Maree Cables on 0417 055 893. As winners of this Special Purpose Housing Award, this project now goes on to compete as a finalist against Special Purpose Housing winners across Australia at the 2012 Awards in Cairns next May.

HIA Victorian Executive Director Gil King congratulated the winners. “In a year where building activity in Victoria has come “off the boil”, it’s wonderful to see that our builders are maintaining the very high standards we have come to expect.” Mr King said. “Victorian builders are first class in the design, workmanship and quality of new homes and renovations.”

All it needs is your family

HE perfect opportunity awaits the new owners of this week’s featured property to simply move in and enjoy a well maintained and comfortable family home. Originally built as a display home this three bedroom plus study home has style in abundance in a package ideal for family living or entertaining in a relaxing, peaceful part of town. An interesting design makes use of cathedral ceilings with timber panelling and exposed beams throughout the sunken living areas. The large light-filled dining and kitchen areas are sure to please with electric cooking, dishwasher and ample space to cater for the largest family gathering. And the party can quite easily spill out on

the rear al-fresco deck via either the dining room or the spacious lounge room. The main bedroom includes an en-suite and built in robes while the remaining two bedrooms are both spacious and make use of a beautiful bathroom with separate toilet. The study has been opened up to allow easy entry and ample light, ideal for the high tech student or maybe an avid sewer. A double garage, itself making use of cathedral ceilings is large enough to house the family car or two, or maybe a small campervan or boat. The grounds are well established with a fernery down one side and high fences to ensure privacy. Recent painting and new floor coverings has kept the home in beautiful condition.

Flying visit snares mini-triathlon COMPETITIVE: The Swamp Donkeys will be looking to take their third title in as many years when they take on all-comers in this year’s Twin Cities Seniors Basketball Classic. Picture: TREVOR JACKSON

Classic brings carnival feel to Jackson stadium A CARNIVAL atmosphere will return to the Lauren Jackson Sports Centre and Scots School courts this weekend with the 28th consecutive running of the Twin Cities Senior Basketball Classic. Around 70 senior men’s and women’s teams are expected to participate in the annual carnival across eight grades with $5000 in prize money up for grabs. Eleven teams will contest the A grade men’s and women’s competition with A reserve, B, C and Masters Men’s grades also on the card. Teams from Albury and Wodonga will take the courts against rivals from Sydney, Wollongong, Canberra, Melbourne and country and regional Victoria. Event organiser, Paul Gooding said the competition originally began back in the old tin shed at the showgrounds that was once Albury’s basketball stadium before moving to the current location. He said after a period of absence on the calendar the carnival returned in the early 80s and has been running consistently since, attracting many of the same players year in year out ensuring the continued success of the annual event. “It’s interesting to note if you went through the people who organise the teams I know 75-80 percent of them by name,” he said. “They’ve been coming for up to 14 years in some instances so you know that you’ve got about 50 teams before you kick it off.” Gooding said this year promised to be very competitive. He said the men’s A grade winners from the last two years, the Swamp Donkeys would be looking to take yet another title but would be facing some stiff competition from Melbourne. “There’s a team in there called NTM from Melbourne this year and they’ve got Cam Rigby playing,” Gooding said. “He’s a pretty powerful SEABL player and has played NBL as well and he’s got three of his team mates with him, so they’d be pretty close to the favourites.”

Bandits name new coaches

THE Border’s Bandits have announced incoming coaches for the 2012 season. Brad Chalmers will be taking over the job of the men’s team from Ian Gallaway. Chalmers was a long term fixture in the team playing more than 250 games for the club. The Lady Bandits will be headed by Tammy Goyne. Goyne played for the Border team last season and is currently coaching the Lady Gators in the Victorian Country Basketball League. Goyne attended the university of Tulsa in the US and played for Dandenong in the WNBL. Both coaches will be under pressure to turn around a rather lacklustre few years, the only real highlight in recent times when the Lady Bandits made their first ever play-off series in 2009 under the tutelage of Kennedy Kereama.

CONTROL: Scott Schilg managed victory with a strong bike leg to set up the final section of the race. Picture: TREVOR JACKSON

FORMER Border traithlete, Scott Schilg has taken out the first of the Albury Wodonga triathlon club’s mini-triathlons for the season at Allans Flat on Sunday. Schilg finished with close to a 2½ minute gap over nearest rival, Chris Moscher with Stuart White coming home in third. First woman home was Albury’s Heidi Poole followed by Angela Sandral and Sharnie McCooke. Schilg took control in the bike leg and powered on to take out the event by a comfortable margin. Currently living in Launceston, Schilg was back on the Border to visit family and compete in a half iron man at Shepparton this weekend. He said the mini triathlon was the ideal lead up to that event on a course he enjoyed and in perfect weather conditions. “It’s a nice little course and the weather couldn’t be better with no wind,” Schilg said. “There’s good competition as

well … they kept pushing me the whole way.” Schilg said it also gave him the opportunity to test out his new bike before the Shepparton event with all looking good for his next challenge. Poole managed a strong effort to take the women’s section, crossing the line in eighth place overall. Poole said she begins training this week for an event in March and Sunday’s event was a good indication of where she was at as far as fitness was concerned. She said she was pleased with the result being her first hit-out for the season. “It’s a tough, undulating course on the bike and even though it’s short it’s hard,” she said. “I actually find these short courses quite challenging because your heart rate is racing at the threshold all the time. “It hurt but I was really happy with my time. It was pretty close to my best time.”

Wolves blitz opponents

Juniors to the fore

WODONGA Wolves have taken a stunning come-from-behind win with a final quarter 30 point blitz to defeat Maryborough Blazers 77-71 in a tough road trip on Saturday night. And the Lady Wolves have continued their undefeated start to the season with a solid 80-58 win over the Lady Blazers. The men were jumped by the home side from the outset with the Blazers taking control early. Poor ball rotation in attack saw easy turnovers putting the Blazers in the fast break scenario but they could only managed a four point lead at the first break. The second term saw much of the same with the Wolves unable to close the gap despite big efforts from Dylan Webb and Heath Ohlin and went to the long break trailing by six. The home side opened the gap further in the third and with a 15 point lead half way through the term looked like cruising to victory but a determined Wolves closed the gap to eight before a buzzer-beating triple from Blazers’ Matt Johnson opened it to 11 at the final break. Coach, Mick Merrilees felt his boys had the momentum in the final half of the third term despite the margin and desperation soon turned to inspiration as the Border boys ran home. With Webb covered inside Joldy Bradley stepped up to knock down some easy baskets. Ohlin took care of the Blazers’ danger man, Johnson limiting him to a solitary field goal and saw the visitors go on to a 30-13 final term and take the points. Merrilees praised his team’s effort in a win he referred to as a “get out of jail free card”. “We were out-played for three quarters but it shows the character and calibre of the players we have in the group,” he said.

ALBURY Wodonga Triathlon Club members, Alessia Orla and Kirsty Deacon have taken victory in race one of the Triathlon Victoria State Series at Brighton beach, Melbourne. Six AWTC members travelled to Melbourne to contest round one of the series consisting of a 500m swim, 20km bike ride and 5km run. In the category places AWTC members collected two gold medals, one bronze and three top 10 places. Orla took gold in the open elite female division as did Deacon in the 14-15 years female, just four minutes behind Orla and the first junior home. Thomas Noble managed bronze in the 14-15 male mini triathlon, Alexander Holbrook finished fifth in the 16-19 male, Caleb Noble finished eighth in the junior elite male and Harrison Rees finished ninth in the junior elite male. Coach of AWTC, Fabrizio Andreoni said the result was very pleasing and reflected on the quality and attitude of the young athletes in the club. “We put in a lot of effort coaching and providing sessions for juniors,” he said. “But the other good point is the attitude they have in terms of training and commitment, this showed with the result on the weekend. “Now we have a very good group of people that want to do it. “They want to perform at the best of their ability and it’s good to see the best of their ability now is at state standard.” Orla, from Torino, Italy and a recent addition to the club, had previously trained with Andreoni in Italy and came to Australia for her ‘winter’ training sessions. Andreoni said it was good to have Orla training and competing as a member of AWTC with her experience and ability invaluable to the juniors in the club.

Makos pepper the goals OLIVIA Bahr has managed a seven goal bag to help her team, Makos to a dominant 15-1 victory over Albury Wodonga in the under 14 girls water polo competition on the weekend. Ashleigh Gould managed five and Claudia McCulloch chimed in with three to ensure Makos were never troubled throughout the game. Northside Stingrays also managed a strong victory with their 10-1 result over Pool Pirates Bones. Scores were spread evenly across the board for Stingrays while Cassandra Gibbs was the sole contributor for Bones. And Pool Pirates Skulls took a 7-2 victory over Albury Tigers, Hollie Wornes top scoring with three goals. The 14 boys saw some more dominant results with Stingrays overcoming Bones 9-4 in the closest result while Tigers Yellow notched up a big 13-2 win over Skulls and Tigers Black just as impressive with a 12-3 victory over Wodonga.

The girls again showed the way to the net in the under 16 division. Merry Buckmaster was impressive with five goals in Northside Stingers 12-4 win over Pool Pirates. Chelsea Lacey also contributed for the victors with three goals as did Sharlet Medcraft for Pirates. Alhana Hofer chipped in with four goals for Sharks in their 14-1 win over Northside Rays while Alex Cox and Jessie Rand both contributed three in Tigers Black’s 15-3 win over Tigers Yellow. For the boys four goals from Skulls’ Nicholas Hynes wasn’t enough to take victory over Tigers Yellow with the latter prevailing in a tough 8-5 result. James Mitchelhill top scored for the victors with three. Tigers Black won 9-2 over Bones on the back of a four goal bag from Thomas Duck and Sharks took a 14-5 win over Makos with Jack Hunter contributing four goals for the victors.

Capital comeback Plenty at stake as Canberra pair meet at Jackson stadium

WNBL: Carrie Graf will bring Australia’s elite women’s basketball competition to the Border next weekend at the Lauren Jackson Sports Centre. Picture: TREVOR JACKSON

WNBL is about to hit town again and will this year take a new twist, being the first top level basketball game played since the re-naming of the Lauren Jackson Sports Centre. Canberra is looking to expand its fan base into regional NSW and last year trialled the idea of using Albury as a fixture on its home and away roster. Stadium manager, Michael Stanton told NewsWeekly that last year’s inaugural match attracted about 750800 people for Canberra’s top of the table clash with Bendigo and this year’s clash with the AIS should be no less popular. A three-year deal between AlburyCity and Basketball ACT has ensured the short term future of the now annual fixture. Another interesting feature of the night will be the pitting of Australian Opals and Capitals coach Carri Graf against her Opals assistant, AIS coach Phil Brown which has been dubbed a “local derby with a difference”. Graf offered a little more insight into the importance of the game. “This time it’s the first time we play in the newly named Lauren Jackson Stadium,” Graf said. “I think from a Canberra Capitals and Albury basketball perspective, and for basketball in Australia that’s a big event. “Canberra is the only team that Lauren’s played for in the WNBL, other than the AIS obviously where most of our elite juniors play, and it’s probably the club that she’s going to retire with. “So I think it’s really a unique opportunity for our club to play in Albury and the Lauren Jackson stadium for the first time … it’s Canberra ver-

sus the AIS, the two teams that she’s played for.” Graf said she had a healthy respect for her Opals assistant stating he was one the biggest influences on junior elite athletes in recent times. But she said once they took the floor on opposing sides they were there to do a job and for Graf that meant looking to take a victory. “When he’s coaching the AIS and I’m coaching the Capitals, we’re about trying to get a win and we never take the AIS lightly, they’ve really pushed a lot of teams this year,” Graf said. “Our win-loss hasn’t been great to date, we’re finding our feet in a somewhat new group but when we come to Albury it’s about making sure we come out and play hard and go after the win.” Graf said fans on the Border could expect a high quality game of basketball with several players sure to provide plenty of action. “The AIS have got some wonderful young athletes,” she said. “They’ve got some great size and they’re playing some really good hoop this year. “Obviously (for Canberra) Jess Bibby is someone who is always exciting to watch play, she’s a hell of a three point shooter, Marianna Tolo as a post player going up against some of the young posts, Nicole Hunt as an emerging talent point guard … hopefully what you’ll see is a great game of up-tempo women’s basketball.” Tickets prices for the game start at $20 for adults, $13 for concession holders, $10 for children under 16 and $50 for family passes which include two adults and two children.

YOUR BEST BODY FREE! 12 WEEK CHALLENGE

WEEK TEN BRING A FRIEND AND SHARE THE FUN

The not so great weather over the last few weeks has kept a few people away from our weekly group sessions. However along with the return of the wonderful weather it was great to see the return of some familiar faces. This weekend we held a “Bring a

Friend” day. We invited the Your Best Body Challengers to bring along family and friends so that they could experience first hand the group fitness sessions that have been helping participants get fitter and healthier over the past couple of months. All participants took part in a simple session of sprinting, squats and star jumps. Although we say

simple, that doesn’t mean it didn’t get the heart going. An effective workout never needs to be difficult or complicated. It should be something that is able to be completed by people at any level, increasing intensity or adapting as needed. The clock is ticking down on the Your Best Body Albury Wodonga Challenge with only two more group ses-
