Caught by surprise By Mary Anne Gill
Four busloads of Australian tourists arrived in Cambridge on Sunday, but the town didn’t roll out the red carpet for the first overseas visitors in over two years because most residents were unaware they were coming. The New South Wales contingent included four under 14 hockey teams and their families who filled up Hidden Lake Hotel, The Podium and boarders’ rooms at St Peter’s School. After arriving from Matamata, where they visited Hobbiton, and before booking into their hotels, the four buses and their 200 plus occupants parked up outside the Town Hall where they could be seen eating takeaways
on the steps of the hall and the iSite. One parent spoken to by The News said she thought it was strange but understood New Zealand closed on Sunday afternoons. Also in town were their opponents and families from around New Zealand for the first Go Hockey Under 14 Anzac Challenge at the St Peter’s School Hockey Centre. They arrived the previous day. In all more than 500 people were attending the tournament. Go Hockey owner Brent Edwards admitted to The News he stuffed up by not letting the town’s information centre know they were coming. “We didn’t think about that,” he said. “But wait till you hear about our future plans. We’re coming back.”
The company intends running three tournaments in Cambridge next year with similar numbers for the first two and teams from Holland, Belgium South Africa and Australia for the third one, an international challenge tournament, in July. Deputy mayor and former Destination Cambridge manager Liz Stolwyk described the arrival of the first significant number of overseas tourists in two years as a “missed opportunity.” “What a shame, we would have put out the welcome mat, rolled out the red carpet. “This is a wake up call for us, we’ve got to get better.” Stolwyk now manages Mighty River Domain at Lake Karāpiro which hosts hundreds of events every year.

She maintains an events’ calendar which feeds into the Destination Cambridge one. That means retailers, businesses and accommodation outlets all know what events – and how many tourists – are due in town. Cambridge Chamber of Commerce chief executive Kelly Bouzaid said she would remind members of the importance of letting people know about events taking place in the district. “We can’t miss out on these opportunities,” she said. Edwards reassured The News he would tap into the Cambridge network for future tournaments and said local restaurants and eateries had benefited from the current tournament which ended yesterday.

Bex Fraser says “coming out” might be easier these days, but there’s still plenty of people who worry about reactions from family, friends or workmates. “I came out as bisexual and non-binary in the Waikato in my late twenties, and I live in Pirongia now, so I know what it’s like when you’re in a small town. Fraser says a free seven-week course, The Big Q’s examines some of those issues. “It’s for adults over 18 who are starting to question their gender or sexuality, because we know that can be a scary time for people. “It can feel like you stick out like a sore thumb when you’re the only Rainbow person you know living in an area. So a group like The Big Qs really does feel like family.” Fraser is a programme facilitator with rainbow organisation Hohou Te Rongo Kahukura. “We talk through the fears and joys of coming out and how to negotiate this with family and friends, and help people connect to others on similar journeys.” Fraser says the course, available through Hamilton’s Fraser High School, is a safe place to explore being gay, lesbian, bisexual or transgender, “or any other identities people might have”. The co-facilitators of the course, which is supported by the Tertiary Education Commission, are Caya Divakalala and ues Tim Bennett, also from Hohou Te Rongo Alys Antiq t & Fine Ar Kahukura. Enrolments have opened for the next programme starting in August. “I first identified as queer in the early

Hohou Te Rongo Kahukura will receive $24,750 towards investigating more about the elder abuse experienced in the Rainbow community through a national
survey and key interviews. They will work collaboratively with Rainbow Hub Waikato to understand the needs of these groups. The group was one of three in the Waikato among 11 across the country to be granted funds from a $250,000 Elder Abuse Prevention Fund last month. “This targeted funding is desperately needed. We have almost no information beyond the anecdotal, which suggests big gaps for us.” Sandra Dickson, Hohou Te Rongo Kahukura Project Manager, said. For more details go to teawamutunews.nz

Stop and think
We’ve definitely had some wintery weather this week. As a result, we’ve seen localised flooding and fallen trees due, so please continue to be vigilant when travelling. Weather conditions aren’t the only risk on the roads, however. This week we stopped a car that was completely missing a rear door handle and neither rear door could be opened from the outside - and the insides were broken. A rear window was also broken and covered in plastic. Not surprisingly, the car had not had a warrant of fitness since 2019. The unroadworthy condition of the car meant it was a huge safety risk to not only its own occupants (which included an unrestrained child), but also to any other vehicles on the road. It was promptly issued with a non-operate order until repairs are made and a current warrant obtained. It is important that any
vehicle is maintained to avoid vehicle breakdowns and failures that could cause a crash, or lessen protection provided to the occupants should they have one. We also continue to catch people driving in excess of the speed limit or with excess breath alcohol (drunk driving). Before you get behind the wheel, stop and think. Are you and the car in the best (legal) condition to be on the road? On another topic, this week while away, I had one of those takeaway issues where my pizza was delivered to a completely different house to that in which I was staying. A phone call to the company saw a replacement swiftly despatched with a side as compensation. Sometimes however, the purchases we make online aren’t so easily replaced and compensation is not forthcoming at all. Yes, I have written about online purchase and sale fraud prevention before. The number of
complaints that continue to come in across the district, suggest that another reminder is due. When buying a product from Facebook market place or other online avenue, always do your research. Google the company, read reviews and with Facebook marketplace, pay for higher value items upon collection, not before. Equally, when selling high value items, either require cash payment on pick up or wait until the funds are well and truly in your account before handing over the item. Don’t let a purchaser rush you. It is possible for fraudsters to forge screenshots of payment transfers when they haven’t really happened. Consider Trade Me over local buy and sell pages, as it offers more protection for both buyers and sellers. Until next time, enjoy your week. Deb

Briefs… Women in politics
Women contemplating standing in the Waipā District Council elections are being encouraged to meet to chat informally about women in politics, the opportunities and challenges. Organised by deputy mayor Liz Stolwyk, the event will be held in Cambridge on July 30 at 1pm. The objective is to get more women standing for local government. Nominations for the council open tomorrow.
Ben in finals
Cambridge tractor technician Ben McShane from Agrowquip has made the finals of the second annual John Deere awards. Judges said McShaxxqne’s understanding of modern tractor parts and services was second to none plus he has an appreciable knowledge of older models too. He was one of 100 nominated from across New Zealand and Australia. Winners will be announced at a special gala next month in Brisbane.

Hoardings have been removed from the Health Hub complex at the intersection of Victoria Road and Norfolk Drive in Cambridge to complete civil works on site, AHS Construction managing director Peter Davenport says. Several readers contacted us saying it appeared construction on the $150 million all-purpose medical facility had stopped but Davenport says site activity will “ramp up” in the next few weeks.

Cambridge bridge, what bridge?
By Mary Anne Gill
Transport minister Michael Wood says he has not been briefed about the possibility of a third bridge in Cambridge over the Waikato River. He was just as coy on the possibility of the Waikato Expressway continuing from Cambridge to Piarere anytime soon when The News spoke to him at the opening of the expressway’s 22km Hamilton section on Tuesday. Wood said he had not had anything formal about another bridge come through from the region but was sure “someone will be knocking at my door fairly soon”. Several Cambridge businesses, led by the Chamber of Commerce, have for years been pressuring Waipā District Council to build a third bridge. In 2018, consultants Beca prepared a report which showed traffic volumes in the town would not trigger the need for a new bridge until 2048. But last year the council decided to go ahead with preparing a business case to present to Waka Kotahi New Zealand Transport Agency. In the meanwhile, it is likely to be one of the key issues in the Waipā local body election campaign. Nominations for candidates open tomorrow (Friday). Waikato and Waipā mayors Allan Sanson and Jim Mylchreest used the Hamilton section opening as an opportunity to reinforce their views that extending the expressway to Piarere was a regional priority. “We’ve heard that from local government. It is something Waka Kotahi continue to work on with local government to build up the business case and look for sources of funding,” said Wood. “The funding is not available at the moment but as we talked about today, the nature of this project is it has been one we’ve done in stages.”

The project is estimated to cost more than $630 million but no money is available for detailed design and construction before 2027. In the meanwhile, the government is funding a safety upgrade at the SH1 and SH29 intersection at Piarere and has carried out safety upgrades on the road, including median barriers and associated turnaround facilities. Wood joined Māori King Tūheitia and 250 guests at the Hamilton section opening. King Tūheitia cut a ribbon using a set of sharp scissors used at every other section opening. Torrential rain throughout the ceremony made for difficult conditions but Wood said it did not dampen celebrations marking the end of the
biggest roading project in Waikato history. The new Hamilton section runs from Ngaruawahia to Tamahere and is the final section of the 102km SH1 four-laning between south of Auckland and Cambridge. Work on the earlier sections of the expressway began in the 1990s in Tamahere and Pokeno and continued with Ōhinewai and Mercer in the 2000s. In 2009 the remaining seven sections were funded for construction with Te Rapa (opened 2012), Ngāruawāhia (2013), Cambridge (2015), Rangiriri (2017), Longswamp (2020), Huntly (2020) and now Hamilton (2022).

Three Waters claim withdrawn By Mary Anne Gill
Waipā District Council has pulled a sentence from a Three Waters reform media release it sent out last week and admitted the sentence was wrong. The release claimed people who do not take part in a select committee process around reform will be “counted by the government as being in support of this plan.” The statement was published by NZME and other publications. After The News sent the quote to Local Government minister Nanaia Mahuta, a spokesperson for her said the support claim was erroneous “and does not reflect Parliamentary processes.” “That sentence was wrong,” Waipā Customer and Community
Services group manager Sally Sheedy subsequently admitted. The template release was prepared by Communities For Local Democracy, a lobby grouping of 31 councils and allowed councils to attribute generic copy to each councils’ mayor. Waipā is funding its $15,000 inclusion in the group from the Mayoral Discretionary Fund. Waipā’s communications staff last Thursday sent the release out and posted it on the council website quoting mayor Jim Mylchreest and included other comments from Manawatu mayor and lobby group chair Helen Worboys. It was she who said people who did not participate would be counted as in favour of Three Waters. The claim remains on the Manawatu

District Council and lobby group’s website but is now off Waipā’s. “We hadn’t picked up on that but now it has been drawn to our attention, we’ve removed this line from the news release,” said Sheedy. “We assume the material provided is correct but, in this instance, that sentence was wrong.” The News asked Sheedy whether the $15,000 approved from the mayor’s fund also included time spent by council officers on work for the lobby group. “No additional money has been spent on this campaign. Only minimal staff time has been spent - liaising with the mayor about the news release, posting on the website and to social media.” Submissions on the Water Services

Waipā mayor Jim Mylchreest said in the release the Waipā community held strong views on Three Waters and needed to share those thoughts. “…the wider Waipā community has indicated their strong opposition to the reforms in their current format so now’s the time to speak up and share their thoughts on that,” Mylchreest said. “We want our local voices heard in Wellington, so if you don’t want to see future water services that are all pay, no say, this is your opportunity to stand up and be counted.” A4 36mm

What a ride by Leo… By Steph Bell-Jenkins
It caused a serious ache in his “man bits”, but it was worth it. Leamington School student Leo Piper surprised his mum, his dad and himself on Friday, successfully completing a six-hour stationary bicycle ride to raise more than $3200 for the Cancer Society. The gutsy 10-year-old, who appeared in Cambridge News last month, devised the project with his mother Jude Fitness earlier this year. “We want to give people with cancer who have kind of just been forgotten through all the Covid stuff a big boost of support,” said Jude. Leo trained for several months to prepare for the ride but had never cycled more than three hours before attempting it. With his racing bike set up on a resistance trainer in a small room off the school hall, he cranked through hours of pain – particularly in his legs and groin – to finish in front of a whole school assembly, where he received a certificate for his efforts. “It was really, really hard, definitely,” he said. “Especially the last 15-20 minutes.” A steady stream of students, staff and teachers supported Leo throughout the day, giving him cheers and high-fives. “That made all the difference and gave him a huge boost,” Jude said. The year 6 student, who appreciated the support, enjoyed near celebrity status as a mufti day was held in his honour. “It’s the first time I’ve ever heard
people chanting my name and talking about me,” he said. “I was just walking back to class and they were talking about me, the whole school.” He clocked up 142 kilometres over the day. “I’m just super proud of him,” Jude said. “I cannot believe he’s done it really, that’s the bottom line. I thought four hours might be a good push. I thought he’d probably do it but I’m still secretly surprised. And he did it pretty comfortably.” Leo’s father, Derrick Piper, was also “super proud”. “When he first told me I sort of thought six hours might be a bit keen but he’s outdone that one,” he said. Leamington School principal Mike Malcolm said the level of support Leo had received from other students throughout his ride showed how much he was respected within the school. “I think what he did today is a reflection of his character and also the character of his mum because his mum’s always been a real giver in our community,” he said. “He’s learnt that from somewhere and it’s not hard to see where he’s learnt that from...he’s had a great role model.” Possibly a glutton for punishment, Leo played rugby the next day, helping his team beat Raglan, and raced in the Hawke’s Bay Cyclocross on Sunday, winning his event. “Thank you to everyone who came to see me and supported me,” he said.

Setting the day The weather that dumped heavy rain at the official opening of the Waikato Expressway Hamilton section on Tuesday appears to have delayed the public from using it. Around 250 hundred guests, including The News’ senior writer Mary Anne Gill, joined Māori King Tūheitia and Transport Minister Michael Wood to cut the ribbon on the biggest roading project in Waikato history. Running from Ngāruawāhia in the north to the existing Tamahere interchange south of Hamilton, the road connects Auckland to the agriculture and business centres of the Waikato and will improve productivity in the region, says Waka Kotahi. But clean ups around the region and completion of the Resolution Drive extension appears to have prevented the public from using the new 22kms from Tamahere through to north of Hampton Downs. It is expected to be opened by the weekend. The new 110km/h speed limit is now in place along much of the expressway but small sections at Tamahere and just south of Hampton Downs are being upgraded to 110 standard and they will remain under traffic management until spring, while the Ngāruawāhia section will not be 110km/h until remedial and safety improvements are done.
Express End of the road: No cars are allowed on the Hamilton section of the expressway yet. This is the northern end at Horsham Downs looking towards Ngāruawāhia.
Guests pictured after the opening – Back row, from left, mayors Jim Mylchreest, Allan Sanson and Paula Southgate, NZTA board member Victoria Carter, Waka Kotahi project managers Bruce Waugh and Jo Wilton, NZTA chief executive Nicole Rosie, MP Jamie Strange, NZTA board deputy chair Cassandra Crowley, MP David Bennett.

BUSINESS SHOWCASE
Good for the environment and good for your well-being, wholefood grocery store, Fill Good, is all about improving the health of its customers and cutting down on waste for the betterment of the planet. It was opened two years ago by Catlyn Calder, who wanted to make wholesome products available under the convenience of one roof.
Fill Good offers recipes and all the ingredients and nutritional goodies that go into them. The store strives to provide customers with their dietary and health necessities. “While we do our best to supply organic options, to make low waste shopping accessible to everyone, we also offer a range of non-organic options.”
The concept resonated with locals to such a degree that the store recently doubled its floor area by 55sqm to accommodate a wider range of products and stock organic fruit and vegetables. “We support local growers across Waipa and the greater Waikato as much as possible, and we are the only organic fruit and veggie retailer in the Waipa, as far as I’m aware,” says Catlyn.
Ethically minded Fill Good sources its organic products from reputable certified companies around the country and the world. Around 70 per cent of the entire stock comes from Kiwi growers and makers, but as New Zealand can’t grow everything, the store does source products from other parts of the world to meet customer needs.
Bulk shopping is popular and Fill Good has 130 bulk products in store. It’s an economical way to shop and allows customers to bring their own containers to cut down on packaging and plastics. The store makes it easy to fill your pantry with staples and you can buy as much or as little as you like.
The team goes out of it way to make shopping effortless and economical. Orders can be placed on online through the website, www.fillgood.co.nz and collected at customers’ convenience. A shipping option is also available.
“We have some great foodies in store who can offer advice, and we’re soon to introduce educational workshops and other innovations like tastings.”
Located at 29a Victoria Street, Good Fill is open 9.00am-5.00pm Monday-Friday and 9.00am-3.00pm on Saturdays.

Getting into election mode It is election year - of the local kind. Like it or not we will all be bombarded with pamphlets, emails, door knockers - all of them wannabees driven to be seen at the large table at the Town Hall - or its administrative equivalent. Over recent months we have been lucky to be able to watch Council proceedings on our home desk screens and what riveting stuff that was! Pardon the cynicism – I did it myself many years ago when elected for four three-year terms in Wellington. And used to watch with a mixture of horror and amusement as the jobfor-life local body manager would tie up newly elected entrants with jargon, obscurantism and general unhelpfulness. All beautifully masked with an overlay of ‘I know best’. I even recall in those far-off times being beseeched by the General Manager to read the antepenultimate paragraph in his wordy and meaningless report. And in those days a clause in the appropriate local body act absolutely reserved the right for continuity of employment. That said there is now - in most cases - a much more professional senior management in local body enclaves and I am heartened this week to read a report from the relatively new General Manager of the Hamilton City Council. That is a council, which over recent years, has spent too much time handwringing and attempting to rid itself of its pseudonym that reflects a relationship with bovine animals. But there is light on the horizon where the senior official at that council has been gutsy enough to basically state that it is time to cut out the chaff and get on with dealing with the wheat. Too many fingers in too many pies and pandering to impossible localised dreams And what he is really saying is that anyone who aspires to become elected needs to do their homework before they enter the large doors of the speak-fest auditorium. And here
By Peter Carr
I totally agree with him. Just three months out from the October election, there are (currently) two aspirants for the role of Mayor of Waipa. One a long-standing local body professional now also with three election terms under his belt and the other a younger barrister with a family that has a well-respected track record in the political spectrum. Both come from – or at least reside in - the western side of the electoral district. Both, I am sure, have much to offer. Both will have done their homework. I was disappointed the other day to hear a Cambridge worthy bemoaning the fact that there is not a residential entrant from ‘our’ side of Waipa. Well, that is because no-one of any real talent, depth of knowledge and wide-ranging experience appears capable of being recognised as suitable. And further, if it becomes a three horse (or heaven-forbid greater) race the election will be split and we will not get the leader we deserve. There is ample evidence over recent years of ‘western’ based mayors being even-handed in their geographical interests and input. Looming ahead is further local body reform. The last time this happened - 1989 - the district was split by small-minded parochialism as to choosing a name. So the chairman of the commission organising the re-shape layered us with the name of possibly the dirtiest looking river in the North Island. Time to think big people. Time to choose a leader who can appreciate the true meaning of governance, stand clear away from management and simply be a rational and clear-thinking leader devoid of the petty frivolities that too often invade the Council.

OBITUARY – Rev Canon ADRIAN GOVER: 14.01.1936 – 03.07.2022
A man of mana and aroha By Viv Posselt
The Rev Adrian Gover during one of the Anzac Day parades at which he officiated as Cambridge RSA pastor.
Rev Adrian Gover was last week described as a man who brought both ‘mana and aroha’ into the priesthood. Those words were expressed at Adrian’s funeral at St Andrew’s Church last Thursday. He had been associated with the Anglican Diocese of Waikato and Taranaki, and the Parish of Cambridge, since 2007, and was recognised as being an exceptional and transformative teacher. Educated at Remuera Primary School and Auckland Grammar, Adrian attained his teacher’s certificate through Auckland Teachers’ College, and a B.Sc, majoring in psychology through Auckland University. After working for the Department of Education Psychological Service in Hamilton, he did further graduate and postgraduate studies at Massey University in Palmerston North, graduating with a BA (double major) and an MA (Hons). Later, he completed further postgraduate studies at Waikato University. His doctoral thesis focused on the Autism Spectrum Disorder. Much of Adrian’s career was centred in the educational field. He amassed years as a teacher and school principal, covering positions at Raglan, Woodstock in Hamilton, Marco near Kohuratahi, Ohura, Woodville and Ashhurst before training as a resource teacher for the Resource Teachers: Learning and Behaviour (RTLB) Service and travelling widely in that role. His interest lay in working with children with a range of educational and behavioural difficulties, as well as their parents and teachers. He also provided counselling and clinical supervision to the then Child Youth and Family Services (now Oranga Tamariki), and Tautoko Services workers. His entry to the church came later, when he undertook theological studies through the Education for Ministry programme under the supervision of the
Waikato’s home of Audi Petrol, Diesel and Electric vehicle servicing. For a full run down on what we do, check out: www.ebbettaudi.co.nz/servicing/ Chat with the team for the best option. Talk to the team who love their Audi’s.

Bishop of Waiapu. Delivering a message on behalf of the Diocese of Waiapu last week was the former Vicar of St Andrew’s Church and now Anglican Bishop of Waiapu, Andrew Hedge. He said Adrian brought his many gifts and experiences into his working life with the church in southern Hawke’s Bay area. “His wisdom and passion for healing were appreciated by the community,” he said. “When he moved to Cambridge, I enjoyed getting to know him. We had a shared interest in motorcycles … we were the ‘priests on motorcycles’ who often took part in the annual motorcycle toy run. He was very encouraging of others, a priest of keen intellect and a man who gave thoughtful counsel.” Archbishop Sir David Moxon spoke as a friend and on behalf of Archbishop Philip Richardson. He described Adrian’s work with those on the autism spectrum as being ‘transformative’ and said he took the same passion and care, ‘mana and aroha’, into the priesthood. “Archbishop Philip would say of Adrian that he was a man of wisdom, compassion and vision. It is a beautiful combination and has made such a difference in the lives of many.” St Andrew’s vicar, Rev Jennie Savage, said Adrian had been a man who gave of his time, money and skills with compassion and generosity. His lengthy involvement with the St John ambulance service often saw him rush in to help those in need without a thought for any risk to himself. “He was very people-oriented, a good community member, a man who loved animals.” During the service, family friend Tiaki Tamihana, gave a karakia and performed a haka. Adrian had been the Cambridge RSA pastor for some years. Following the sounding of The Last Post at the end of the service, he was also farewelled by Cambridge RSA president Tony Hill.

Riding to Tel Aviv Fundraising is underway to help six Cambridge area cyclists who are off to Tel Aviv, Israel, next month for the Junior World Track Championships. The six – part of a New Zealand squad of 12 - include national and Oceania champions and national record holders. They are Jaxson Russell and Kyle Aitken (Cambridge High), Luke Blackwood, Lewis Johnston (St Peters), Oliver Watson-Palmer (St Peters leaver) and Liam Cavanagh (Waikato University). Most of the boys are juggling full time study with a demanding training schedule and often holding down a part-time job as well. The sprinters train three times a week in the gym and four times a week on the bike,
mostly at the Grassroots Trust Velodrome. The endurance riders typically spend less time in the gym, but ride on the road most days and do one session a week in the velodrome. It’s up to each rider to fund their attendance at the event, but the six have combined for a fundraising drive – looking for $16,500 for each rider. They will be out and about in the community selling raffle tickets this month and Matangi’s Bootleg Brewery will run tours as a fundraiser on July 28. A third training camp for the group will be held in Cambridge this month and the team heads to Israel on August 14. Watch for a detailed story on the squad in next week’s Cambridge News.

FAITH IN WAIPĀ
Leaving a legacy By Murray Smith, Senior Leader, Bridges Church
Back in 1956, Life Magazine’s cover story read “Missionaries’ Jungle Martyrdom.” Inside, diaries and photographs accompanied an article which captured worldwide attention. A group of missionary families had been undertaking risky work in the dense jungles of Ecuador. Isolated from the outside world, these young missionaries had dedicated themselves to Operation Auca. Their goal was to connect with the Auca people, also known as the Waodani, an indigenous tribe Life described as “stoneage.” Known for killing outsiders, the Waodani killed one another at the highest rate of any known group, said James Boster, a University of Connecticut anthropology professor. Before the missionaries came, they had dwindled to 600 and “were at the brink of cultural extinction,” he commented. Operation Auca had long term goals at heart; to reach the Auca and make an authentic connection. Through learning their language, understanding their culture, providing basic medical care they hoped to see the diminishing population rebound not only as internal warfare ended but also by providing basic medical and health care. While some anthropologists are hostile to the work of Christian missional effort - seeing it as cultural imperialism, these families intentionally sought to bring the most benevolent and caring face possible to these native people. A lengthy process of ‘introducing’ themselves to the Auca people seemed to go well. Flying over jungle clearings the five missionaries would wave and drop useful items and gifts to the people who, over time seemed to welcome the encounters with smiling faces and reciprocal waving.
Eventually they decided the time for visiting in person had come. Landing their small aircraft on a remote jungle river sandbar, the young missionaries disembarked. A few cautious Auca people approached. Then, without warning, native warriors with spears appeared out of the jungle. The missionaries carried guns but had agreed that if the Auca – known for their aggression– attacked, they would not defend themselves. And so it was these men lost their lives before they’d hardly had a chance to introduce themselves. It took a search party 48 hours by foot and canoe to reach the bodies of the young men, the oldest, aged 32. Jim Elliot, Nate Saint, Roger Youderian, Edward McCully and Pete Fleming. From water damaged camera film, photographs revealed some interaction had occurred with Auca people before the killings. I’ve often looked at a photo featured in that Life story. There, you see the five widows, three with babies, sitting around a table receiving news from the search party of their husbands’ deaths. The moment of grief, devastation, confusion, and shock upon learning that their husbands would not be coming back, exudes from the image. Was it a waste? Jim Elliott had an eternal perspective. He wrote prior to going to Ecuador these words…“he is no fool who gives what he cannot keep, to gain that which he cannot lose.” The next year, two of those widows, one Jim’s wife, responded to bloodshed with love as they walked uninvited into the killers’ village to live among the tribe that murdered their husbands. In countless ways their legacy lives on.

Waipā author fills a gap By Mary Anne Gill
Imagine living on a wild and windy bird sanctuary in New Zealand. Cambridge author Libby KirkbyMcLeod did too, so she wrote about it putting Eugene, his brother Miles
and his parents on the island for a (thus far) four-part book series. Called Eugene’s Island, the adventures start with the family arriving on the island on Eugene’s birthday and then in subsequent books welcoming their cousins, his pet dog Jupiter with his

grandmother and finally dealing with an accident in the ocean. Libby has drawn on her own childhood for inspiration. Her parents were missionaries in Nigeria when she was born and then spent time in Bolivia before returning to New Zealand when she was six. She went on to study communications at Auckland University of Technology (AUT) and did a Master of Creative Writing while working as a communications advisor at Franklin District Council. Five years ago, she began writing seriously penning a poetry collection, her first children’s book World Folk Tales and edited a collection of New Zealand short stories. Earlier this year the family adopted a greyhound called Diego, who raced as Go Diego before he was retired in June last year. Libby, husband Aidan and two children Elliot, 11, and Jeremy, 9, moved to Cambridge from Auckland two years ago to be close

to family in the Waikato. Book sellers told her there was a gap in the market for illustrated chapter books which appealed to independent readers aged from five to eight. So just over a year ago, she and her good friend illustrator Anna McKessar produced Eugene’s Island. In the first book, Eugene’s father gets a job on a remote and uninhabited New Zealand bird sanctuary and then follows the family through a series of challenges, some environmental. “They are unusual settings dealing with everyday issues,” said Libby, who publishes the books herself. The language used is from the basic sight word lists used in many New Zealand primary schools and can also be read aloud in the classroom or at home. The Cambridge connection with the children’s books might well have dipped under the radar until two months ago, when the children’s buyer at Paper Plus put
them in her window display. Libby plucked up the courage to tell the store she was the author. Here is your chance to win the four Eugene’s Island books signed by Libby Kirkby-McLeod. Tell us about your favourite bird and why? Email editor@goodlocal.nz by Monday 25 July.

Football deal announced Letters… Waikato football clubs Hamilton Wanderers and Cambridge have signed a Memorandum of Understanding to provide pathways to develop players. The two clubs already share a Director of Football in former All Whites coach and player Ricki Herbert, and many of their young players are also being coached by the Ricki Herbert Football Academy. Cambridge chair Greg Zeuren said the agreement formalises the close bond the clubs have been building over recent years. “The opportunities it will bring for both clubs’ youth players are outstanding,” he said. “The additional pathways opened through this partnership will allow our players the ability to play at the highest level of football available.” Wanderers chair Dave Douglas said the ability for a player to reach the highest domestic competitions without needing to move to a major metropolitan city was massive – “and even better is that this partnership
offers a pathway for all players, not just those that aspire to reach the highest levels of the games as there are different offerings at all levels for the junior/youth players.” Wanderers’ top men’s team compete in the Northern League and has played in the country’s top domestic competition, the National League. The club is well-placed to qualify for the next National League competition. Its top women’s team play in the Lotto NRFL Women’s Premier League and were runners-up in last season’s Kate Sheppard Cup, the top national cup competition for women’s football. Cambridge’s top men’s side play in the Lotto NRFL second division, while their senior women’s team competes in the Waikato Women’s first division. Both clubs have youth teams that participate in WaiBOP federation leagues. Herbert says: “This is a logical and exciting opportunity for the two clubs to determine what’s best for players at all levels,
helping them reach their potential by playing in the competitions that best suit them. “It also means both clubs and our academy can allocate the coaching resources to where they are most needed, and to support coaches as they work to improve their skills and knowledge.” Douglas said the clubs’ relationship with the RHFA was “one of the initial building blocks to starting the dialogue around working together and it gathered momentum from there. “Both clubs have been working on this partnership for a long time and to see it finally come to fruition is so exciting, as there some obvious similarities between how both clubs operate. “There are also some differences but these will be helpful too, as those differences will allow both clubs to learn from each other. “The opportunity to share resources, knowledge and offer a near complete footballing pathway for a young boy or girl is pretty special and we can’t wait to get things underway.”
Power issues
Since 2pm on Friday parts of the Whitehall community have endured over 49 hours of power cuts. Each power cut has been reported online via smart phone and has sat with “site investigation underway” and a shifting “time for restoration”. Apart from the emergency contact number, which is manned but only for reporting faults, there was no way to get a regular person to give any advise as to what was happening. The PowerCo 0800 called on Monday refused to recognise touchtone input and the company didn’t reply to email. Wet weather aside, the fault or faults started before the weekend and some form of direct communication would have been possible given the numerous service vehicles moving up and down the road. PowerCo enjoys a monopoly on these lines. It would be a step forward if there was at least an acknowledgment of the poor communication from PowerCo and some idea of what they will do to improve service to the customers. Grant Amos Whitehall
A spokesperson for Powerco responded: Powerco crews are out in force as high winds and heavy rain continue to cause widespread outages across its electricity network. We do our very best to prepare for weather events and respond quickly by having extra crews on the ground to make repairs and restore power to our customers. We encourage customers to visit the outage map on our website for current outage information including estimated restoration times, though for some outages a range of factors could push out timeframes. For example, sometimes crews need to remove branches and other debris before they can carry our repairs. When winds are high, it’s unsafe for crews to work at height using elevated work platforms and ladders so we’ll stand them down until conditions subside. For safety reasons, we may also stand down our crews at 9pm, except for those who will be on hand to respond to any emergencies during the night. We know it’s frustrating waiting to be reconnected and we would like to thank all our customers for their patience and understanding. (Letter and response abridged)

‘Fame’ at last for Hautapu beaten Gaye Bezzant Softball international Gaye Bezzant is to become the 41st inductee into Cambridge’s Sports Hall of Fame. The announcement was made this week – at the same time six inductees were announced for Te Awamutu’s hall of fame. They are father and son wrestlers Brian and Shane Stannett, equestrian cross-country course designer John Nicholson, champion axeman Jason Wynyard, composer Dr Michael Williams and author Heather Morris. When Bezzant is inducted into Cambridge’s Sports Walk of Fame later this year it will acknowledge a lifetime of sporting achievements. Cambridge’s Walk of Fame acknowledges achievements in everything from polo to ploughing, and it has not been added to since bronze plaques were unveiled in Duke St to acknowledge rowers
Eric Murray and Hamish Bond, BMX rider Sarah Walker, squash champion Joelle King and judoka and powerlifter Doug Mienie. Bezzant, who has spent all her life in the Cambridge area, was a New Zealand softball representative for a decade from 1955 and served as vice captain in the 1964-65 season. She also represented Waikato in softball, netball, basketball and golf and coached across a range of codes. “She was the ultimate all-rounder, talented across a range of codes,” Waipā mayor Jim Mylchreest said. He acknowledged the recognition was a long time coming “but Gaye will now rightly take her place alongside other Cambridge sporting giants.” “She has earned her place and I’m thrilled that her achievements will publicly celebrated and honoured in this way.”
Hautapu’s 2022 Waikato senior rugby campaign came to a semifinal conclusion in Hamilton on Saturday. The side was beaten by Old Boys 24-19, to set up an all Hamilton final against champions Fraser Tech, who shut out University 27-0.

Retirement village living Retirement villages offer a range of accommodation options, independent living, a continuum of care and community facilities. While a village situation may be a perfect solution for some, it’s not for everyone. If you’re considering moving into a retirement village, make sure it’s the right fit for you. Consider aspects like facilities and how they meet your needs now and in the future. Will you be able to continue to live there if your health or mobility declines?
Cost is a big factor. Consider entry and exit costs, and finances needed for ongoing expenses. It’s also important to fully understand and accept the legal framework, occupancy model and key consumer protections of living in a registered retirement village. Take time to read the documentation associated with buying into, living in, and leaving the village, including the disclosure statement and occupation right agreement. You may need the independent advice of a legal professional. Waipa has solicitors skilled in elder law and who are familiar with local retirement villages and have relationships with their managers. Visit different villages and find out about the lifestyles they offer, including housing options,
facilities, and services. Talk to the residents. They know better than anyone what life is like in the village they live in.

The four basic legal titles commonly used when buying into a retirement village include a licence to occupy, a unit title, cross lease, and lease for life. These agreements will generally
It’s a good idea to consult with family and friends before making your final decision. Most retirement villages require you to have a valid will and
powers of attorney in place before you can move in. Speak to your family lawyer. If you don’t have a solicitor, refer to the New Zealand Law Society database, or ask a local support agency like CAB or Age Concern.

BUSINESS SHOWCASE
Genuine care and compassion from Lewis Lawyers experienced team NAOMI LEE People rather than paper is Naomi Lee’s passion. A specialist in elder law, Naomi is an advocate for the rights of older people with expertise that enables her to help clients across a broad spectrum of legal needs. She assists in areas of estate planning and administration, occupation right agreements, wills, powers of attorney, residential care loans and subsidies and other various aspects that constitute elder law. Naomi also has expertise in residential conveyancing and provides advice and support to her clients through their property transactions. Her genuine care and compassion make clients feel at ease. She takes the time to get to know them and gain an understanding of their needs to offer the best possible advice and outcomes. “Working with clients at retirement age is an area I especially enjoy. And I get the perk of their amazing stories, which is all part of the job I love.” Naomi manages numerous situations where older people are moving into retirement villages. She understands how hard selling the family home and downsizing may be, and the health and family factors that can come into play. She helps clients to get their affairs in order by highlighting practical considerations to ensure everything is on par. This can range from helping with decisions as to methods of sale of their property, to discussing the process of settlement and what happens on the day to ease worry, as well as explaining the legal side of things in a language that is easily understood. “I explore the reasons behind their decisions, ensure my clients have done the right research, and make sure they are happy with their decisions before moving to the legal side of things. I assist with with the legal details that go into making a move and aim to make the process as seamless as possible.” She said villages in Cambridge are helpful and flexible,

Different prices and amenities target people from all walks of life and range from the more affordable end of the market to luxurious, high-end lifestyle offerings. As retirement villages vary in fee structures, social facilities, health care offerings and residents’ support, choosing the right one for current and future needs is important. “Needs vary,” says Lisa. “Some people want a community where they can socialise, and others prefer a quieter life. When guiding clients to make best decisions it is important to fully understand their needs and circumstances, and what flow on care they may require.” This is particularly important for those in dementia units. “I need to be the eyes and ears for that person. They have the right to be heard and protected at this vulnerable stage of their life.” Navigating your way around elder law is best left to a professional. Lisa has an indepth understanding of the law and its implications and is a passionate advocate for seniors. She also has her finger on the pulse of Cambridge’s retirement sector. “There are major plans to build more facilities, but there are delays in some build projects. Waiting lists are long and I advise people to look at different options and compare them. Given the current situation, it’s

WHAT IS ELDER LAW? Elder law is a specialist area that includes services such as wills and estates, enduring powers of attorney, both in relation to property, and to care and welfare, advice on residential property and retirement villages, and legal protections for older people. Lewis Lawyers help elderly people transition from their own home to residential rest home care and this can involve the process of selling a home and downsizing to smaller accommodation, all of which can be stressful for someone in advancing years. Things change as people age. An elder law solicitor can advise in all aspects of future planning and undertake a full review of your affairs to ensure you receive the right entitlements and care, and that your estate is managed according to your wishes.

Daniel Davies has been on the tools since he took on a building apprenticeship after leaving school.
NEW CAMBRIDGE SHOWHOME NOW OPEN www.davieshomes.co.nz
More than 25 years on, and his passion for the trade is stronger than ever. But it’s not just the nuts and bolts of building that appeal to him. Daniel has a flair for design and has been sketching house plans since the outset of his career. While his company does employ the crème-de-la crème of house designers, Daniel is very hands-on and has input into every design. It is part of his modus operandi. He’s a perfectionist. He loves to design and derives immense satisfaction from bringing his clients’ dreams to fruition. Each house Davies Homes builds is a genuine one-of-a-kind. There is no cookie cutter approach. Quality is the catchword. For over quarter of a century, the boutique building company has gone above and beyond to design and
build superior homes and their reputation is second to none. Seventy-five per cent of business comes from word of mouth. The team does it the ‘Davies Way’. They bring to life their clients’ vision and make the house building experience seamless and enjoyable. Customers can rest assured they’re in the best of hands. “Every site is unique,” says Daniel. “We design homes to optimise the attributes of the site and the sunlight.” Davies Homes has developed its own proven systems and processes to ensure every build goes perfectly to plan. All options are presented right from the start, and strong quality control carries through from beginning to end. The company draws on the very best problemsolving skills and cost-effective solutions, and clients can rest assured knowing that everything will go as promised. The company is selective about the number of homes it builds each year, and centres its energies exclusively on the Waipa region. Comprehensively covering the district, Davies Homes has a showhome in Cambridge and a design hub in Te Awamutu. The forward-thinking company is so well-organised and has developed such strong relationships with suppliers that it is unaffected by any supply issues. It’s business as usual for Master Builder Davies Homes Ltd.

New Cambridge Showhome Now Open The team at Davies Homes stake their reputation on every home they build. And if you want to see what they’re made of, visit their latest showhome at 35 Catalyst Avenue, Leamington. Full of the wow factor, the home sets the standard for modern and elegant builds. It is elaborately packaged and beautifully detailed, and at 369sqm, there is no shortage of space in the home. The interior is perfectly in tune with laidback yet luxurious living, and the tasteful, high-spec fit-out is par for the course for a Davies-built home. Grand schist feature walls and exposed structural steel blend seamlessly with warm cedar ceilings and American white oak timber flooring in a stunning symphony of textures, all brought together in utmost style and chic sophistication. The home’s generous footprint packs in four bedrooms, three bathrooms, two living areas, a games room, a parents’ nook, a kitchen and scullery and double and single garages. Everyone’s needs are catered for, and nothing is left to chance. It takes no effort to imagine luxuriating in a family home of this calibre and proudly showing it off to guests. The house is designed with entertaining in mind and has an
outdoor environment that refuses to be upstaged by the opulent interior. Rarely does a showhome boast a swimming pool, a firepit, eight separate decks and landscape artistry. Curves and stonework complement the intricate design of the home and greatly enhance the overall aesthetic. The team at Davies Homes are continuously raising the bar and are excited to showcase this
outstanding residence. You can back on them for producing a winner. The best way to experience their design skills, quality workmanship and attention to detail, is to see for yourself. One of the team will happily show you through 35 Catalyst Avenue and explain the features and thinking that were invested in creating this sensational home, which graces Leamington’s new Pukekura subdivision.

PROJECT MANAGEMENT
DESIGN HUB Could there be anything better than to live in a perfectly designed home? The team at Te Awamutu’s Davies Design Hub can do a lot of things for their clients. Each home has a language of its own, and the team goes to great lengths to design houses that reflect the style and wishes of their clients. The process starts by listening carefully to their clients and asking about their personal preferences and what they’d like to achieve in their dream home. They dispense professional advice, help clients visualise their concepts, present variations and budgets, and have numerous samples on show. The team know how design ideas work and have the expertise to orchestrate all the aspects that go into building a special home. They employ great design, excellent details, and specs to meet their clients’ dreams. Recently opened, Davies Design Hub is a onestop shop for prospective new homeowners. The state-of-the-art space brings together all products and options from the company’s high-quality suppliers. Aptly named, the hub is home to consultants, designers, and an administrative team, and regularly hosts their key supplier reps. With countless samples on display and cleverly designed meeting spaces, this collaborative space streamlines the design and build process, putting clients in direct contact with the people and products they need to create their dream home. The hub is another feather in Daniel Davies’ cap. The visionary company director is focused on delivering creative, allencompassing design solutions tailored to clients’ expectations. These expectations are often exceeded. Quality is everything when designing and building a home. The Design Hub is open during the company’s regular office hours, Monday-Thursday 8.00am-5.00pm and Friday from 8.00am-4.00pm at 141 George Street, Te Awamutu.
Many people are daunted by the thought of building a new home and making all the decisions that go into its creation. Davies Homes turn that thinking around by offering a streamlined design and build process. Nothing is too large or complicated for the team. They have huge experience to draw on, a passion for what they do, and love nothing better than seeing the whole process come to fruition. Their sound project management skills ensure everything goes as planned. Clients are assigned their client liaison manager who links them with the right people to help them choose their fixtures and fittings, carpets, and colours. Managing director, Daniel Davies, with the assistance of a project manager, personally oversees every build, ensuring the highest standards of construction are met. Communication is key. There are regular site visits and access to the company’s cloud-based project management tool that gives 24/7 real-time visibility of the construction process, allowing clients to track the exact progress of their home as it is being built. The company has a very holistic approach, selecting top-quality products, highly reliable tradespeople, and professional landscapers and interior designers to ensure the best turnkey outcome.

Healthy handfuls
‘Tiny but mighty, nuts and seeds deliver protein, fibre and a nutrient punch with every bite’ Havard Health. Nuts are actually the seeds of plants with most coming from trees. However, peanuts are the seeds of a legume. Sesame seeds have been cultivated for well over 5000 years. The tiny, oil-rich seeds grow in pods on the ‘Sesamum indicum’ plant. Sesame seeds may protect against heart disease, diabetes and arthritis. However, you need to eat significant amounts — a handful per day — to gain these health benefits. Pumpkin seeds—or pepitas—are flat and dark green with a chewy texture and a subtle sweet, nutty flavour. In Mexico, pepitas are often ground and used to thicken sauces. Eating only a small amount can provide you with a substantial quantity of healthy oils, magnesium and zinc. Contrary to popular belief, the macadamia is native to Queensland — not Hawaii — and was named after the Australian chemist who promoted its cultivation. High in the unsaturated ‘good oils’ and protein, they are also an excellent source of iron, calcium, phosphorus, vitamins B and E and fibre. Walnuts are one of the oldest sources of food known to man. They contain 52 to 70 per cent oil and more than 90 per cent of this is unsaturated. They’re also high in omega-3, protein, minerals and fibre and have been found to help reduce the risk of type-2 diabetes. WALNUT, GOAT’S CHEESE & PEAR BRUSCHETTA A simple and fabulous flavour bite for lunch. 1 small pear, thinly sliced lengthwise 2 tablespoons lemon juice 2-3 slices grain bread, lightly toasted selection of baby salad leaves 50g soft goat’s cheese, crumbled 1/4 cup chopped lightly toasted walnuts 1/4 cup microgreens freshly ground black pepper to taste Sprinkle the pear slices with lemon juice. Place the toast on

a serving platter or board. Top with the salad leaves, pear slices, goat’s cheese and walnuts. Garnish with microgreens and back pepper. Serves 2-3.
SESAME-CRUSTED CHICKEN 1 teaspoon brown sugar 2 teaspoons lemon juice 1 small egg, lightly beaten 1/4 cup each: sesame seeds, finely chopped parsley, long thread coconut 4 x 150g skinned and boned chicken breasts or 2 x 300g breasts, halved lengthwise 2 tablespoons rice bran oil Sauce: 1 tablespoon sesame oil 3 tablespoons each: lemon juice, light soy sauce Dissolve the brown sugar in the lemon juice. Add the egg, sesame seeds, parsley and coconut. Pat evenly over the top of the chicken. Chill for 1 hour to allow the coating to set. Preheat the oven to 200°C. Heat the oil in a frying pan. Pan-fry the chicken, crust-side down for about 5 minutes over medium-low heat, until the crust is golden. Place the chicken in a roasting pan, crust-side up. Bake for 8-10 minutes or until cooked. Combine the ingredients for the sauce and serve with the chicken. Serves 4.
PEPITA BARS 50g butter 1/2 cup raw sugar 4 tablespoons honey 150g pumpkin (pepita) seeds 1 breakfast (wheat) biscuit or similar, crushed 3/4 cup dried cranberries or raisins 1/2 cup each: rolled oats, self-raising flour Preheat the oven to 170°C. Lightly grease and line the sides and base of a 20cm cake pan with baking paper. Melt the butter, raw sugar and honey together in a saucepan on low heat. Stir until the sugar is dissolved. Cool slightly. Combine the remaining ingredients in a bowl. Add the butter mixture and stir until well mixed. Tip the mixture into the lined pan. With a rubber spatula, press the mixture down firmly and evenly. Bake for 25-30 minutes or until golden. Cool in the pan. Cut into bars. Store in the refrigerator or freezer. Makes 12 bars.

A winter must-have is always a pair of warm PJs, and like previous years, the local community and businesses have donated generously. A special thanks to Lime Group, Accounted4 Limited and Lewis Lawyers for having their entire offices support this worthy campaign.
453 TOTAL PAIRS OF PJS
