Here we go again

Social distancing has made an immediate return to supermarkets and the region faces up to the prospect of another extended battle with Covid-19 speading in the community.

Despite pleas not to panic buy after Auckland moved to Level 3 and the rest of the country to Level 2, queues at Waipā supermarkets stretched 100 metres from their doors yesterday.

Under Alert Level 2 guidelines, contact tracing, physical distancing and limits on the number of people allowed into buildings

must be in place at all businesses and public facilities.

Cambridge farmer Gary Blackburn, queuing at Cambridge New World, applauded the return to Level 2, saying it was right to go early.

Nearby at Countdown Jagter Singh was less convinced, citing the low number of cases which had prompted the move.

Connie Rakena was out mid-morning doing her supermarket shop, saying she knew it would get busier later in the day.

She said she “had a feeling” the country would reintroduce restrictions to fight the disease.

The Government moved swiftly after announcing Covid-19 had been diagnosed in four members of an Auckland family of six and appeared to be the result of community transmission.

One, a man in his 50s, works at a facility in South Auckland that has links to Auckland airport. Another had visited a tourist centres in Rotorua.

There were long queues outside Cambridge supermarkets yesterday.

The levels will be reviewed at midnight tomorrow.

Restrictions are in place at all Waipā District Council facilities, but essential services and work continues as normal. Rubbish collection services, although privately managed in Waipā, are essential and will continue to operate.

Front counter services at council’s Cambridge and Te Awamutu officer will remain open with a limit on the number of people allowed into the building.

Let’s make the decision

The recent Cambridge News article ‘Bridge the Gap’ was very pertinent and timely .

Our Cambridge community is frequently reminded about the number of new houses coming on stream and the budgets for the upgrades of infrastructure work. But let’s talk traffic .

The increase in the number of cars from this population growth, considering on average 1-2 cars for every new home, will in a short space of time bring more congestion to the Cambridge shopping precinct.

While the traffic volume is increasing the flow across town from east to west has no other options apart from using Victoria St for the high-level bridge or the Victoria, Albert and Cook St route for the low-level bridge.

From west it uses Pope, Cook, then Albert to Victoria Streets.

A more direct route to bypass the main street would involve a new bridge in a new location , as suggested in Bridge the Gap. Heavy logging trucks with trailers, Fonterra milk tankers and trucks with loaded semitrailers all use the low-level bridge west through Leamington or from Victoria St and Albert St. On any one day, these numbers are very significant many of these trucks are

Facilities including libraries, museums, playgrounds, skateparks, toilets, BMX tracks and boat ramps will also remain open to the public with restrictions.

Waipā mayor Jim Mylchreest said moving back to Alert Level 2 restrictions was necessary for the safety of all residents.

He encouraged all residents to download and use the NZ COVID Tracer app to enable effective contact tracing.

“I also strongly encourage residents to download council’s Antenno app which will reduce the need to come into council offices for things like paying rates.”

Retail NZ says the three-day lockdown could be catastrophic for businesses recovering from the impact of the initial Covid-19 outbreak. Under Level 3, businesses must close their doors to customers, but can still sell online.

The emergence of new cases came after more than 100 days without a positive test was celebrated this week. But it was not unexpected – director general of health Ashley Bloomfield has consistently talked of the possibiity of a second wave of Covid.

A total of 22 people died with Covid in New Zealand folowing the original outbreak. A total of 188 cases were reported in the Waikato district, 187 of those people recovered.

making multiple trips , increasing the traffic volumes which then cause congestion.

A decision on the new river crossing cannot come soon enough considering planning required and the funding issues.

The Pukerimu Lane location suggested in the ‘Bridge the Gap’ article makes a lot of sense and these planning investigations should be commissioned now. The other reason for urgency is Council are developing plans for new housing developments and new roading within the Leamington, Cambridge Rd and Lamb St area known as Cell C4 . It is destined to become residential within two years.

A new town entrance to Cambridge from the west is being proposed on the junction of Lamb and Kaipaki Rd. The draft roading design released at this junction raises practical concerns requiring further consideration on how these roads will

cope with the traffic flows from these new residential zones .

This further adds to the urgency of planning the third bridge and Geoff Maunsell its defined location.

Integrated planning with a long-term vision will give certainty to the community and how it in turn can plan.

The big picture planning gives the best outcomes with staged deliveries saving taxpayers money and minimising the need to rebuild or make changes to planning done with little or no forward thinking.

On the beat Sniffing out criminals

with Senior Constable DEB THURGOOD

The team had a great win last Friday when three juveniles were caught mid-burglary by rural property owners in Ōhaupō. A sterling effort from farmers and police saw all three arrested and some property recovered. One youth had headed down the road away from his mates. A police dog was able to backtrack from him, straight to the location of the burglary, confirming his involvement.

She also highlighted to her handler that the offender had been down in a ditch.

A bag belonging to the youth and containing stolen ammunition and hunting knives was found partially submerged in the drain. This goes to show that the best chance of catching offenders is at the time of the crime and reinforces the need to be alert, observant and alert police to anything suspicious. We appreciate all the effort that went into this arrest.

My talk last week was to the Cambridge Catholic Women’s League. It was lovely to be invited to their meeting and they had some good questions that I thought were worth sharing. The first was around how and when to report a crime to police. I’ve covered this off here before, but I can never say it enough. Dial 111 for offending in progress (for example, assault/burglary in progress or dangerous driving continuing) or 105 for offending that has already happened (you return home and your fence has been damaged in your absence). You can also go to 105.police.govt.nz and make an online report. Dial *555 for inconsiderate driving. If in doubt call. What may seem unimportant to

you, could be a vital piece in our puzzle.

The Cambridge police station also has a public counter which is open from 8am to 4pm Monday to Friday (if you require specific advice or documents certified for example). Occasionally it may be closed within those times due to operational requirements, in which case there is an intercom to the right of the entry which will put you through to our communications centre.

A follow-up question was how long does it take for police to respond to your call? This will vary depending on what it is you are reporting, the relative seriousness/priority of your incident in relation to other jobs we have on the go and the proximity of a police patrol to your location. We always respond as quickly as possible, with first priority given to jobs where there is serious harm happening or likely to happen to people or property.

What is on the protective vest that police wear? I carry many things on my vest (“BAS”) and duty belt. These include my officer safety alarm, torch, police radio, OC (pepper) spray, taser, extendable baton, handcuffs (plus handcuff key) and my notebook and pens. These are all essential tools which enable me to do my job safely and effectively.

If you have any queries, concerns or information on suspicious activity in your area, you can email me on CambridgeCommunityLiaison@police.govt.nz .

Briefs…

Seymour in Waipā

ACT leader David Seymour will speak at a public meeting at the Te Awa Lifecare village today at 11am. His National opposite Judith Collins was in the Taupō electorate this week on the campaign trail – though the party’s communication wing did not alert the News to the fact.

Communities grow

While major media comanies struggle with their print products, the New Zealand Community Newspaper Association – of which both the Cambridge News and Te Awamtu News are members - continues to grow.

Among six new members of the association are Waikato Business News and The Valley Profile (Thames).

Roundabout open

The new Hamlin Rd roundabout, overlooked by the Cambridge Avantidrome, is about to enter its fourth stage – which will see it open to vehicles. Stakeholders and contractors were invited today to “walk the roundabout”.

Funding confirmed

Associate Minister of Transport Julie Anne Genter has announced the Te Awa River ride between Cambridge and Hamilton will get funding from the $220 million nationwide cycleways investment as one of the shovel ready projects.

Out with the coal

Fonterra’s Te Awamutu plant is set to switch from coal to wood pellet energy when an $11 million power source project is completed later this month. The change over is slated for September 1.

Covid cancellation

The 75th Anniversary of Victory over Japan (VJ) Day ceremonies scheduled for Saturday at the Cambridge Cenotaph and Te Awamutu’s Sunken Cross Memorial have been cancelled following the government announcement of Alert Level Two.

New station – but hours the same

By Jeremy Smith

A proposed new police base in Cambridge will not be manned around the clock.

The station could be the first in the Waikato built under a partnership agreement signed between New Zealand Police and Tainui Group Holdings last week.

Construction of the 416 square metre building at the site of an old police house at the corner of Victoria and Fort streets could start next March and be finished by February 2022.

The News could not ascertain the projected cost for the proposed new police station as this issue went to print.

Under the proposal, Tainui Group Holdings would build and own the building and the whenua, while police will invest in specific tenant fitout. Information about the project appears on the TGH website, but it did not respond to an email from the News The station in Cambridge would initially be leased to police for 20 years and could accommodate up to 18 police officers.

Commissioner of Police Andrew Coster said in a statement the

partnership was “an important milestone in Police’s effort to deliver on the organisation’s objectives under Te Huringa o Te Tai strategy, specifically to improve outcomes for Maaori, including through partnerships with Iwi.” Parekawhia McLean, Chair of Te Whakakitenga o Waikato, the Waikato-Tainui parliament welcomed the move.

She said the partnership reflects the strong relationship between the Crown and Waikato-Tainui under Te Tiriti o Waitangi and will support the Police goals as set out in their strategy, Te Huringa o Te Tai. In Cambridge, up until 2016, the current Dick St station was staffed 24 hours a day, seven days a week.

But the News can confirm that under Waikato police’s current policy, the proposed new station would not be.

In 2018, a near $300 million budget increase paved the way for an eventual expansion of the country’s police force by 1800 officers – 127 of those being added to the Waikato.

Two of those were in Cambridge.

Western Waikato acting area commander Inspector David Raffan told the News that increase had brought with it a “revised

approach”.

“The previous population-based target of having 95 percent of New Zealanders living within 25km of a 24-hour-a-day, seven-day-a-week police base was removed.

“Police instead adopted a demand-based approach to regional deployment to best keep our provincial communities safe.”

He said this gave officers “more flexibility to deploy staff in a way that ensures officers are working when and where they are needed most, based on demand.

Inspector Raffan said police do provide a 24-hour-a-day, seven daya-week service to the public across

New Zealand, and Cambridge has a 24-hour response capacity on Friday and Saturday nights.

“New Zealand police are committed to increasing police numbers, expanding our presence and visibility, and improving policing services to our regional communities,” he said.

The proposed design for the new Cambridge station is based on a waka ama, a double-hulled canoe, and will incorporate elements reflecting the environment and community, including visual elements of significance to WaikatoTainui and use of the region’s Hinuera stonework.

Rubbish row: no more trash talk

By Jeremy Smith

The company which picks up rubbish from the home of a Cambridge accountant last week accused of fly tipping says “due process” was followed in the collection of his rubbish.

Rollo Webb was accused of illegal rubbish dumping by Karapiro resident Ian Hayton in a post on the Cambridge Grapevine Facebook page.

Mr Webb uses Waste Management, which collects a bin from his home.

It has since emerged the dumping site is one used by residents as a rural rubbish collection point, and the two men at the centre of last week’s row are now declining to say anything more.

The post, which featured Mr Webb’s address, was removed a short time later – and moderator Sue Collier then issued apology on the page which has about 17,500 followers.

Mr Hayton told the News that about 30 bags were left in a spot near the intersection of the State Highway 1 and Hydro Rd on Tuesday last week.

Staff at Waipā District Council are investigating the dumping.

The situation between Mr Webb and Mr Hayton remains unresolved – both told the News this week they had no further comment to make.

Waste Management’s Lower North Island

general manager David Howie told the News he did not believe Mr Webb’s rubbish could have been intercepted between collection and disposal.

Residential waste collected from the Cambridge area was taken directly to the Lincoln St refuse transfer station in Hamilton, he said.

Waipā District Council compliance manager Karl Tutty said two factors were at play, and a distinction had to be made between rural rubbish collection points and fly tipping.

He said rural rubbish collection points are used by residents living in rural locations whose rubbish is not collected from outside their homes.

“Each week, they leave their rubbish bags for pick-up by their waste service provider on the day of collection.

“These are unofficial collection points which have been established by residents, not Council, nor are they Council collection points.

“Fly tipping, or illegal dumping on the other hand, is rubbish that has been left at these drop off points, or any other places, either not in bags or not on collection day.

“The issue with bags being dropped off outside of rubbish collection day is that they often become torn causing litter to spread or attract vermin.”

Mr Tutty said the spot in question last week near the intersection of the State Highway 1 and

Hydro Rd – was regularly used as one such rural collection point.

“However, it is also a location where we routinely see illegal rubbish dumping.”

Council “does not currently have an official position on rural rubbish collection points”, Rollo Webb Mr Tutty said “At present, our approach is that any rubbish left here on non-rubbish collection days is considered illegal dumping which is what we are trying to target.”

A workshop examining the rural rubbish collection points is to be held

by Council’s Strategic Planning and Policy Committee next month.

It will then be decided how the sites are to be managed.

In the 2019-20 financial year the council received 241 complaints of dumping.

Two $400 infringement notices were issued.

Grape expectations

The 2020 Blue Ruru Pinot Gris has a secondary link.

Secondary school, to be accurate – the grapes for the wine are grown at St Peter’s Cambridge.

The bottling of this year’s vintage, in partnership with Volcanic Hills Winery in Rotorua, marks four years of passion and community involvement to produce what’s described as a “delightfully light Rose and refreshing Pinot Gris”.

The journey began in 2015 when a student

who was keen to study viticulture asked the head of agricultural and horticultural science Mike Kilgour: “why haven’t we got grapes growing here?”

Mr Kilgour took the concept to principal Dale Burden, and the project was born with vines donated by the Thorp family from Sunrise Nurseries in Gisborne, and input and guidance from Charlie and Debbie Johnson.

Choosing the varieties to grow was key, as the

Student Tayla McDonald has worked on the school’s grape growing exercise.

Waikato is not traditionally a grape growing region.

After the school settled on Cabernet Franc, Pinotage for the reds and Chardonnay and Pinot Gris for the whites, 40 of each variety were planted on site at St Peter’s School behind the school’s playing fields.

Students from across the curriculum and year groups have been involved in bringing this wine to reality.

Year 9 and 10 ag-hort science students have pruned the vines, chemistry students have monitored pH and acid levels to determine the best time to pick and science classes used a refractometer to measure the sugar content in the grapes.

Design students developed the name, label and style of the Blue Ruru bottle label. Ruru is the native owl – the morepork – and nods to the St Peter’s Owl and the higher wisdom, learning and inner knowing it proudly represents.

Students and staff volunteered to harvest the 2020 crop, collectively handpicking 1.5 tonnes of grapes on a clear March morning.

The bounty was delivered within two hours to Volcanic Hills Winery at the base of Mt Ngongotaha in Rotorua.

There, winemaker Brent

School principal Dale Burden and students check out the vines.

Park set about producing the blends over the next four months.

With the very limited quantities produced, those actually enjoying a glass will be few.

“Being able to deliver an authentic learning experience for our students, from the planting of the vines through to the harvest and production, is an opportunity we are excited to offer our students,” Mr Burden said.

Year 10 Ag/Hort students, from left, Jasper Mclennan, Scott Assen, Luka Drnasin and Abbie Collins prune the vines.

Raising a glass to class

Prioritising is the thing…

WE THRIVE ON BEING DIFFERENT

As what appears to be a regular weekly writing gig for this august media organ I am driven to cast my mind back a large number of years even before my more youthful times.

Then, a young man born in Lancashire emerged from Cambridge University with an honours degree in English. The only thing, as a Yorkshireman, that I hold against him is that he was born on the wrong side of the Pennines – the string of hills that divides those two industrious counties.

Post his academic period he wrote for that fine newspaper The Manchester Guardian but prior to that he gained a Harkness scholarship to Harvard and Yale where he indulged his acting and musical skills. For a number of years after returning to the UK he wrote a weekly letter directed for readership in the USA wherein he described life in his home country. All this before I was born.

At the time of the Pearl Harbour raid he had just returned to the United States and had been sworn in as a US citizen and about that time reversed his London to US journals to enlighten those in his original domicile with his weekly views on life in America. For the next 58 years Alistair Cooke presented his highly renowned radio broadcast, Letter from America. This was avidly listened to in pre-TV times by a large number of people as they emerged from war-ravaged and coupon-restricted Britain where information about life in ‘the promised land’ could be avidly devoured.

I was, in my formative (at least teenage) years such a follower of his weekly items which, if I recall correctly, were heard on Saturday evenings. He later indulged in the use of television as a medium of explaining his views on life in Uncle Sam’s country.

The reason that I raise the issue of this fine journalist is that he started to become depended upon by a large number of followers for whom a weekly 15-minute news snippet was a highlight of the week. He had a wonderful voice well suited to listeners – a gravelly tone, slow and concise in his presentation. Oh that we lack such journalistic giants today.

Writing for a (relatively) small town weekly journal using Opinion as the right of entry brings with is an expectation from readers that there should be a certain gravitas in the writings – an aura that Cooke most certainly portrayed. Recently I was challenged by a Cambridge News reader that my previous week’s production was not hard-hitting enough! I had not realised that we were at war.

From which, dear readers, you will deduce that my key and expected subject – those of more elderly years – have not given me sufficient excitement to write about them this week. So I decided to salute someone who was most certainly capable of reaching out to young and old alike with a spread and depth of prose that was exciting, meaningful and entirely acceptable. Without the seeming necessity of being seen as hard hitting.

I salute the grand man – who departed this life 16 years ago. There are few like him who can obtain and maintain a wealth of loyal followers and still not either bore them nor insult their intelligence.

So where should we park the bus?

By Jeremy Smith

The discussions won’t stop here – and neither should tour buses.

That was the message from the Cambridge Community Board to Waipā District Council transportation manager Bryan Hudson and Destination Cambridge chair Philip Coles at the board’s August meeting last week.

The pair tabled a proposed location for tour buses to park in town while dropping off passengers to explore Cambridge on day trips, but the board rejected it.

While he didn’t have exact numbers, Mr Coles – in his role as Destination Cambridge chair – told the board that preCovid-19 a high number of tour buses regularly visited town.

He suggested each bus – if it seated 40 or 50 passengers and was full – could potentially boost the Cambridge economy by up to $5000 during a four-hour stay.

In anticipation of the number of buses increasing post Covid-19, Mr Coles and Mr Hudson proposed removing five public on-street car parks on Lake St near the Queen St intersection and, in their place, putting two new bus stops.

“It’s in a user-friendly location, easily accessible from either north or south and it’s visible and close to the i-SITE and the super loo.”

Board members did not think the site was the best option.

“We’ve already had these discussions a number of years ago,” Cambridge ward Council representative Grahame Webber said.

“And at time it was my understanding the board decided a location on Queen St near the Victoria St round about and close to Victoria Square was better suited.”

He said the board was not consulted about the newly proposed Lake St site.

“I did feel sorry for some of the newer board members – how are they meant to make an informed decision when they weren’t kept I the loop?”

Mr Webber believed tour bus traffic often increased in town around the time of December’s annual Christmas Festival.

Mr Coles confirmed Mr Hudson now planned to meet with board members to discuss the two locations.

Tennis club eyes new court

By Viv Posselt

A $100,000-plus upgrade of tennis courts in Cambridge is about to be step closer.

A post-Covid-19 resurgence of activity at Cambridge Racquets Club (CRC) in Thornton Rd is centred on attract fundraising support for the replacement of the club’s astro turf and boost youth membership.

An Open Day on September 12 will see the club open from 11am to 4pm, offering all comers an opportunity to size up the club and enjoy a casual hit around. Spare racquets will be available for those without their own. Details on the day are at www.crc.org.nz.

On the following Saturday – September 18 – the club will host a fundraising Casino Night intended to help them reach the projected $110,000 needed to upgrade the astro turf courts.

Richard Hill, chairman of the tennis side of the club’s operation, said the existing turf courts were 12 years old, with the most frequently used now showing signs of damage.

“We’ve been fundraising for two years and have $25,000 at this stage,” he said. “Grants are proving harder to come by since Covid-19, so we’re pushing hard to raise the outstanding amount via other means.”

The Casino Night will offer tables, an auction and raffles. Richard said the $30 ticket cost will provide punters with ‘$1 million’ worth of play money to kick things off. “They’ll be wealthy – at least for the first few minutes.”

Cambridge Racquets Club is one of just two professionally managed clubs in the region; the other is in Hamilton.

Cambridge Racquets Club leaders Richard Hill, Linda Webster and Wayne Peterson overlooking the astro turf courts that need replacing.

Club manager Wayne Peterson said Cambridge’s ability to retain a friendly ‘country vibe’ while offering a varied range of organised programmes for its 400 members was key to attracting people from further afield. “We offer more programmes than many other clubs … at the same time we focus on keeping much of it social. People can choose to step up if they want to take their game further.”

Club programmes include Rock Up sessions, men and women’s leagues, mixed doubles, club mornings on Wednesdays, rotating interclub games and club day on Sundays. Juniors from the age of five to 17 are catered for through a range of coaching sessions, with Hot Shots junior tennis being played on Saturdays.

Members of all ages and families play year-round, with court bookings

often done through the online Pay2Play system which has been in situ for two years.

Much of the focus for families and young players is enjoyment, and the team is keen to build on its current youth membership of around 50.

Wayne described tennis as a ‘foundational sport’, saying that young people who master tennis are better able to master many other games in the future.

Club president Linda Webster said the club offered something for everyone keen on the sport. “The flexibility of the programmes means it also suits people who might want to consider returning to the game after a time away from it.”

Those keen to secure tickets for the Casino Night, or offer other support, can to contact Wayne Peterson via email at manager@crc.org.nz.

Council goes ‘local’

Cambridge based Waipa Civil has won a $2 million contract to install pipes to service new subdivisions I the town.

The contract will see water and wastewater pipes installed to enable new subdivisions to be built in Cambridge’s northwest.

Waipa Civil, established in 2012, is regarded by the Waipā District Council as an experienced contractor with a wealth of local knowledge.

“Waipa Civil have proven experience in infrastructure installations over many years in the district. We received nine tender applications for the new subdivision pipelines, and I’m pleased to see a local firm ticked all the right boxes,” council’s service delivery group manager, Dawn Inglis said.

“Cambridge’s population is set to grow by 14,000 people by 2050 and it is the epicentre for growth in Waipā. Our challenge is to make sure new subdivisions connect seamlessly with established areas, so we can maintain the essence of what makes Cambridge such a special town to belong to.”

“We’ve been talking about these new growth areas in north west Cambridge for many years so it’s exciting to see the first physical works get underway.”

The new subdivisions, known as C1, C2 and C3, are to be built in the greenfields area opposite Te Awa Lifecare village. Once completed, they will accommodate up to 2,500 homes, a 1000 pupil primary school, and a large supermarket.

Falcons fight back When Robert Lichtwark and Terry Talbot were tending a sick cow on the edge of Robert’s avocado orchard in Maungatautari last week, they heard a harsh screeching.

Robert found two karearea – the native falcon - on the ground with talons interlocked.

He also spotted a third falcon on a branch watching the two below. As he got closer to the pair on the ground, one flew off with the watching bird, leaving the other on the ground exhausted.

Rob went up to the bird and carefully picked it up. It seemed injured, so he put it a carry cage and delivered it to Cambridge Vets. They examined the Falcon and held it overnight but, sadly, the bird did not survive.

“When something like this happens you realise that the numbers of these precious birds must be on the increase. We often see or hear one flying through – offering its signatory keck keck kecking call, on its way,” Rob said.

“I see the remnants of their kills on the orchard floor often – a round circle of feathers.

Robert Lichtwark, left, and Terry Talbot with the injured karearea.

But to see three of them all together was extraordinary.”

Rob is a founding volunteer of the Maungatautari Scenic Reserve. He said it is marvellous to see work that has gone into the project paying off – and visits from falcons at his orchard, a short distance from the reserve, is a bonus.

NO PLANET B

Food farms: good for the planet?

By Peter Matthews

Let’s peer into the future for a moment, but before we do, let’s look at some recent events.

Over the past few years there have been a few stories in the news about houses in certain parts of the developed world selling for ridiculously low prices, and I have just seen another one today.

In some cases the local authority will practically give you a house if you agree to spend a certain amount of money doing it up - and then undertake to live in it for a certain period of time. Of course the problem is that the newly welcomed residents then have to find gainful employment in their new, often a bit isolated, community. But it’s the lack of economic activity, and therefore employment, which has caused the situation in the first place.

There have been stories in the news about food technology, and how food may very well be ‘grown’ in factories to an almost limitless array of specifications. Management will be able to dial up a run of steak, or flour, or milk to name but a few of the coming possibilities.

It has also been suggested that the bones of some of these factories may already be in existence, in the forms of breweries, dairy factories, and the like.

This is because the technologies which will be used to produce food in the not too distant future, ie: micro-fermentation, are similar to what is already done in these existing factories.

Given that the raw material for these processes will be water, microbes, and pretty much any green matter or vegetation, it would make a lot of sense

to build these places close to the centres of population. And guess what? That is where they already are.

Of course we will always grow food crops and vegetables, but it makes sense to do that close to the cities too - not so far to transport the product.

Depopulation has been an issue for rural and isolated communities since the industrial revolution, and if what I’ve outlined here is anywhere near what eventually happens, it’s not going to stop any time soon.

In fact I would suggest that as food production becomes centred around areas of concentrated population, there will be less and less reason, apart from recreation, conservation, and education for people to live in or even visit isolated rural areas.

This could be great news for the planet. It would allow for re-wilding of the landscape on a level hitherto not even considered. The environment will eventually heal itself with or without any further input from humans, but imagine what a utopia we could create for the human race and all the species if only we were willing to read the signs which are writ across the landscape even as we drive through it and fly over it.

Well that was a bit extreme wasn’t it?

Was it a glimpse into the future or was I dreaming? Time will tell.

Friends to mark half century

By Viv Posselt

The call is out for anyone with links to the founding of Friends of Resthaven 50 years ago to unite for a celebratory morning tea later this month.

The 50th anniversary celebration will be held at Cambridge Resthaven’s Vogel St Quiet Room from on August 26. The occasion is being organised by Friends of Resthaven secretary and chairman respectively, Alison Hucke and Philip Coles, and because they are expecting a full house, they want RSVPs before August 21.

“Several Resthaven residents whose parents were involved from the start will be there, and we want others who were involved in its beginnings to join us,” said Alison.

The celebration will include the raffle of a doll’s house, made by Resthaven resident Alan Luxton. Funds raised will go towards the

purchase of another laptop to for Resthaven’s hospital wing residents.

A birthday cake will be cut by Resthaven’s oldest resident, 104-year-old Millie McComb, and Iris Thomas, who is one of the earliest Friends of Resthaven treasurers.

The 50th anniversary occasion will also see the official presentation to

Cambridge Resthaven of the Cubro Hoist, also known as the Ergolet Overhead Lifting System – equipment that has been at the heart of Friends of Resthaven fundraising efforts for the past couple of years. The $10,000 system was installed at Resthaven in March, making it easier and safer to move residents and reducing the risk of strain and injury to carers.

Philip said Cambridge Resthaven was the first retirement village build in Cambridge, and Friends of Resthaven helped raised funds to build the complex.

“It was built with the community in mind, and the wider community got right behind it,” he said.

“The ground was broken in 1972, two years after the community started fundraising for it… a number of organisations in town held several fundraisers each. We will be sending out invitations to all those community groups, businesses, service organisations and the like.”

Once the complex was built, the Friends of Resthaven focus switched to fundraising for extras for the residents, items such as Christmas gifts and craft room materials.

Group members make and distribute birthday and other occasion cards to residents.

By the numbers

By Jeremy Smith

Visitor spend in Waipā during June fell 25 percent compared to the same time last year, a Hamilton & Waikato Tourism report has revealed.

In the document provided to the News, the regional tourism organisation’s chief executive Jason Dawson said the drop was almost solely due to the Covid-19-induced absence of a physical Mystery Creekbased Fieldays event.

The Southern hemisphere’s largest agricultural gathering, which Mr Dawson labelled the Waikato region’s largest “anchor event”, generated $549m in sales for New Zealand firms in 2019.

A roughly $183 million slice of that pie went back into the Waikato economy - with about 130,000 visitors recorded in 2019.

Last week it was reported that about 90,000 visitors stopped by the replacement Fieldays’ online offering.

Elsewhere in the report, Mr Dawson said there were positive signs post lockdown.

“Over the past few weeks, accommodation, retail, hospitality, tourism operators, transport providers and event venues are all benefiting from an influx of domestic visitors,” he said.

Waipā’s May tourism spend was only four percent down when compared to the same month last year – recording $173 million.

Meanwhile, a recently published Data Ventures report commissioned

by Tourism New Zealand stated

Waikato had the second-highest level of domestic visitors during the July school holidays.

According to the report, Waikato achieved 19 percent growth in domestic visitor numbers during the July 2020 school holidays, compared to July 2019.

An average of 55,140 domestic travellers visited during the 2020 July holidays, compared to 46,350 visitors this time last year.

Only Auckland attracted more, with 79,160 domestic visitors.

“We’re working hard to attract domestic visitors back to the region post-Covid, by targeting the leisure, business and events market in key ‘drive and fly’ markets,” Mr Dawson said.

“We know there is more pain to come for tourism, with no international travellers returning to New Zealand for the foreseeable future.”

Waikato is the typically country’s fifth largest region for visitor spend - up to January visitor spend was annually injecting $1.58b into the regional economy.

Mr Dawson said 2.5 million New Zealanders live within a three-hour radius of Waikato.

“We are a significant domestic drive market for the central and upper North Island.”

Historically, nearly three-quarters of visitors to the Waikato are domestic.

“Our geographic location has been a key advantage for us as a region pre-Covid and even more so in

today’s market,” Mr Dawson said.

He added Waipā and Waikato residents responded well to the RTO’s Mighty Local campaign, urging residents to shop and support local. Other initiatives have been implemented as intra-regional travel restrictions have been lifted.

“During a crisis is always a good time to innovate and continue to undertake research and development.

“The findings of this research have enabled us to more effectively plan and execute our restart and recovery strategy.

“We identified early on that restarting both business events and major gatherings would play a key role in leading the social and economic recovery of our visitor economy.”

Culinary Cambridge, being held next month, was an example of that, Mr Dawson said.

DID YOU KNOW

Monavale Blueberries’ Orchard Shop is based at Café Irresistiblue?

Close on 450 items made or donated by members of Cambridge Operation Cover-Up (OCU) were packed away in a frenzy of activity on Friday and will soon be on their way to orphanages and other underprivileged people living in Eastern Europe.

Hundreds of blankets, knitted clothing, soft toys, hygiene and stationery items were packed up last Friday, the day after OCU held its annual display at Cambridge’s Baptist Church auditorium. The soft goods, piles of blanket and knitted clothes, were squashed into bales using an old wool press, making them easier to fit into a container for shipping to Europe by the international charity, Mission Without Borders.

Cambridge’s link with the charity began in 2001. Local knitters now join hundreds of others nationwide to fill two 40-foot containers annually with goods intended for orphanages in Moldova, Romania, Ukraine, Bulgaria, Albania and Croatia.

This year the eam made 165 single bed-sized blankets, six smaller blankets, two larger sized blankets made in heavier wool, 84 pairs of slippers/socks, 60 sets comprising hats, scarves and mittens or gloves, 62 jumpers, and a number of smaller items.

Reds set to take on former champs

Cambridge’s Reds take on one of New Zealand’s most successful football clubs this Saturday when UniMount Bohemians visit John Kerkhof Park.

The Bohemians are an amalgamation of Auckland clubs including five-time national champion and seven-time Chatham Cup winners Mount Wellington.

The Reds need to beat the Aucklanders to pull clear of the bottom group of teams in Northern League’s second division.

Based on latest results, there could be a swag of goals when the teams meet at 3pm on Saturday.

Cambridge’s run of tight results continued last weekend when the Reds were shaded 3-2 at Franklin United.

The loss was Cambridge’s fifth in which the margin was a solitary goal this season.

Franklin charged to a 2-0 lead with a double from Jake McCoy (22’ and 37’).

As half-time approached, Cambridge’s Tom Woutersen created a chance for Dylan Blair who clawed back a goal for the Reds, sending the sides into the break 2-1.

The Reds recovery continued when Josh Nooijen found a 52ndminute equaliser to make it 2-2.

Franklin restored their lead through Kartik Kumar (67’) and the Aucklanders almost added a fourth when Matt Lieshout struck a penalty off the post.

In the early game, Cambridge’s

Cambridge’s Jordan Silvester prepares to go past the last Old Blues defender and score during the 2-2 WaiBop championship draw in Cambridge.

reserves almost upset title-chasing Franklin United but were forced to share the points when they conceded in the last minute to draw 3-3.

The youthful Cambridge side took the lead in the 15th minute through James Greentree.

Michael De Ponte levelled for Franklin and the sides turned around at 1-1.

Early in the second half, Lars Hansen scored his first goal for Cambridge.

Cambridge extended their lead to 3-1 when Prashneel Roy put through his own goal (64’).

That ignited Franklin’s fightback and Marc Lindsay scored with 10 minutes left. Cambridge tried to hold their lead but in the final minute, substitute Preston Peters equalised.

In the WaiBOP Championship, Cambridge registered their fourth draw in their last six outings in a 2-2 stalemate with Tauranga Old Blues at John Kerkhof Park.

The home side led early when Jordan Silvester slipped his marker and rounded both their ‘keeper and last defender for a tap in.

In the 12th minute, Cambridge lost possession in the middle of the pitch, allowing Old Blues forward Horacio Erices to bend a shot from long range into the top of the goal.

Jake Lind put Cambridge ahead after 35’ and the teams turned round at 2-1.

Old Blues levelled through Mauro Romero (47’). Player of the

Day was Shaun Richardson.

In Waikato Division Two, a subpar first half by Cambridge proved costly and Claudelands Rovers took a 1-0 lead into half-time. Cambridge then found the form that had taken them to second place in the competition and Mason Woodall’s goal kept the side in contention.

However, a second goal helped Rovers hang on for their win. Player of the Day was Zak Petropoulos.

In Waikato Division Five, Cambridge D2s produced one of the competition’s upsets when they beat league leaders Tokoroa 3-1 at Strathmore Park.

Left-winger Chris Dodds had a day to remember, scoring all three Cambridge goals and returning with the Player of the Day award.

Cambridge D1s drew 1-1 with West Hamilton United. Cambridge conceded a bizarre own goal, sending the teams into half-time with West Ham leading 1-0.

Cambridge equalised through a Scott Jenkins penalty.

Cambridge continue to press for title honours in the Waikato Women’s second division after beating Huntly Thistle 5-1. Scorers were Astrid Howarth (3), Marie O’Neill and Steph Upton.

In the WaiBOP Federation Y-League, Cambridge U-14 boys beat Melville United U-16 girls 6-1.

In the J-League, Cambridge U-12s drew 2-2 with Northern United.

Scorers for Cambridge were Jaxson Makgill and Regen Grey.

Success for Cambridge in Lacrosse League Cambridge High Premier Boys chalked up their second consecutive win at the weekend in the Waikato High Lacrosse League against last year’s winners, Te Awamutu College.

Cambridge had pulled away early in the match and was 9-1 up at half time and went on to win 10-8. Alistair Hearmon and Blake Anderson were key players in the offence, either putting away the goals themselves or assisting each other to score.

Te Awamutu rallied to dominate the scoring in the second half, netting seven goals in quick succession.

Cambridge coach Betrand Salmi said he side played well in the first half “then got a bit complacent in the second”.

It’s good to come out of those games still on top… they still managed to hold on to the victory.”

Te Awamutu coach Will Chisholm said his side stayed focused on structures and recognised “that we can’t just run the ball the whole time”.

In the Girls High League, Cambridge also notched up their third consecutive win against Sacred Heart Girls, 14-5. Next weekend, they

meet Te Awamutu College in what promises to be a key match for the season.

Cambridge High’s winning streak continued in the Girls A Division where their A team beat Hillcrest High 12-4 and in the B Division, where the Gold won against Hamilton Girls High and the Navy team won against Te Awamutu College.

Flavours Sold on Sides

THURSDAY AUGUST 13, 2020

with Jan Bilton

Plant-based diets are all the rage and health professionals are urging us to eat more vegetables. ‘Swap out most of the meat for more veg.’

This makes sense when animal protein is so expensive although for many people meat and three veg is more important than five veg. But with two vegetarians in the family to cater for, I cook extra plant-based protein side dishes when they visit.

Some simple options include: baked stuffed potatoes; pasta with five veg; hot pumpkin, onion, corn and spinach salad; vegetable stew; and stir-fries. Just ensure there is some protein included such as beans, peas, lentils, nuts, egg or cheese. This provides a balanced diet for those non meat eaters.

Cheese sauce is good old-fashioned protein and great poured over a mix of broccoli, cauli and kale. Stir-fried rice with veg and cashew nuts, risotto with cheese, or Spanish rice with julienned veg and chopped egg are three rice delights with appeal.

A stew or casserole is also a wonderful way to consume more vegetables.

Dice them or grate them and simmer in a good vegetable stock with herbs and canned beans — super to serve with grills or roasts — or as a main.

SPINACH AND RICOTTA BAKE Delicious as a side or a main. Great with grills.

400g trimmed spinach leaves 1 large shallot, diced 25g butter 2 cloves garlic, crushed 500g ricotta cheese 3 large eggs, beaten salt and pepper to taste Steam or microwave the spinach until limp. Cool a little then squeeze out the moisture. Chop.

Preheat the oven to 180°C. Lightly butter a 21cm round baking dish.

Meanwhile, sauté the shallot in the butter until softened.

Oven Pumpkin Risotto

Spinach and Ricotta Bake

Stir in the garlic. Place in a large bowl with the spinach and ricotta. Mix until well combined. Stir in the eggs. Season.

Tip into the baking dish. Bake for about 40 minutes, until just set. Serves 6-8 as a side dish or 4 as a main.

OVEN PUMPKIN RISOTTO Any leftovers can be formed into patties and fried or used for arancini (rice balls stuffed with cheese).

500g pumpkin 25g butter 1 onion, diced 2 cloves garlic, crushed 2 tablespoons chopped sage leaves 1 1/2 cups Arborio rice 1/4 cup white wine 4 cups vegetable stock Topping: 2 tablespoons butter, chopped 1/4 cup grated parmesan cheese Preheat the oven to 180°C. Peel and seed the pumpkin. Cut into 2cm cubes.

Heat the butter in an oven-proof frying pan. Sauté the onion until softened then stir in the garlic and sage. Cook for 1 minute. Add the rice and stir to coat in the butter. Pour in the wine, stirring until evaporated.

Meanwhile, bring the stock to the boil. Gradually stir into the rice mixture. Stir in the pumpkin. Cover and cook in the oven for 25 minutes until the rice is just cooked. Top with the

butter and parmesan. Stir in just before serving. Serves 8 as a side dish or 4-5 as a main.

POPULAR POTATO CASSEROLE Can be reheated. If serving as a main, add a crisp salad as an accompaniment.

1kg mashing potatoes 1 cup mayonnaise 1/2 cup sour cream 1/4 cup milk 2 eggs, lightly beaten 2 teaspoons Dijon mustard freshly ground salt and pepper to taste 2 tablespoons chopped parsley Topping:1/2 cup each finely grated tasty cheddar cheese 1/4 cup finely grated parmesan cheese Preheat the oven to 180°C. Lightly grease a six-cup baking dish.

Peel and chop the potatoes. Boil or steam until tender. Drain and mash until smooth. Place in a food processor (or use a stick blender) and add the mayo, sour cream, milk, eggs, and mustard. Season. Process until smooth. Stir in the parsley.

Spoon into the baking dish. Sprinkle with the cheese. Bake for 40 minutes or until golden. Serves 6 as a side dish.

Harrison off to a winning start

Cambridge junior driver Alicia Harrison began her season in winning fashion when reining home the Steve and Amanda Telfertrained Mimi E Coco to win over 1700m at Alexandra Park last week.

The daughter of multiple Group One winner Molly Darling took some solid workout form into her fresh-up assignment and her connections were confident with her chances from the ace draw.

“She is a very smart horse and did it pretty easy,” Harrison said.

“She was going really well and had a bit of fitness under her belt. She came up with the right draw to make it really hard for the others to catch her.

“She is pretty smartly bred and the Telfers were pretty confident she could win the race.”

Harrison has been receiving plenty of support from Stonewall Stud of late and she said she was delighted to record their second win of the night.

“I was really happy to kick the season off well for Stonewall Stud,” she said.

“They have been brilliant in helping me out.

It is really good to have them along with Arna (Donnelly, employer) behind me heading into the season.

“With a couple of big teams behind me hopefully I can pick up a few wins.”

Harrison has recently returned from the New Zealand Junior Drivers Championship

held in Christchurch late last month where she finished third after winning the final heat of the competition behind Prince Teka.

“It was great to come third because I had a bit of bad luck through the series with a couple of scratchings and one didn’t really want to pace,” Harrison said.

“It was really nice to pick up that last win and finish third overall.

“It was a very tight series, so it just showed what a good bunch of young drivers there were.

It came down to the wire.”

With one win on the board already this season, Harrison is hoping to quickly add to that tally as she would dearly love to take out the North Island junior driver premiership this term.

“The aim is to win this season’s North Island junior driver premiership, so hopefully I can just stay ahead of them now that I have got one,” she said.

While focusing the majority of her efforts on her driving, Harrison is also hoping to get on the winner’s board this year as a trainer.

She took out her trainer’s license at the start of the season to train her three-year-old filly Shirley Bassey, however, it will be a few months before she is seen on the track.

“She has just gone out this week for a month, so she will be a while away from being seen at the trials,” Harrison said. – Cambridge Raceway Cambridge junior driver Alicia Harrison.
