Limit drop may cripple eel industry By Sophie Iremonger
Fisheries New Zealand launched a public consultation last month on catch limits for longfin freshwater eels in the North Island – proposing the option of sticking with the status quo, or reducing the limit by 15 percent, and by 32 percent for commercial catch. It all sounds well and good, but some eel fishermen believe lowering the limit could have serious ramifications for the industry, and that there’s nothing wrong with stock numbers. Fishery New Zealand (FNZ) has reported that “some longfin eel stocks, while stable, may not
be showing a clear increase in abundance,” said Inshore Fisheries Manager Steve Halley, adding that the current review is based on a 2017 scientific assessment of North Island eels by NIWA. FNZ also monitors the North Island eel fishery by reviewing the yearly recruitment of elvers at hydro dams throughout New Zealand, and by the CPUE (catch per unit effort) of each commercially fished area. Before opening the doors to public feedback, a preliminary consultation was held with tangata whenua and a number of relevant organisations, including the Eel Enhancement Company (EEC). “We’ve said we want the status

quo, we just want it to stay where it is, we certainly don’t want it cut, or increased,” explained Mike Holmes, Chairman of the EEC, a commercial eel fisherman and a Cambridge local. “We don’t have a stock problem, which would normally be why you would reduce the limit… we’re the first to ask for quota cuts if we need them.” In charge of the elver eel transfer at Karapiro dam, Mike confirmed that juvenile eel recruitment is better than ever, continuing its gradual increase in numbers. NIWA has been recording recruitment numbers at Karapiro and other locations around New Zealand for almost three decades, and there is clearly an improving trend in recruitment for both species. Mike explained that there are vast areas around the North Island where eel fishing is not allowed or not practiced, nor are there elver transfers, meaning those populations aren’t recorded. In the places where commercial eel fishing does take place, shortfin and longfin eels are often mixed together in the same habitats, meaning fishermen must release a large portion of their catch to comply with longfin eel limits. “Most of the local rivers have about a 50/50 mix of shortfin and longfin.

Cambridge newsroom update
New to Cambridge? Child starting school? Looking for a change of environment for your child?
This week I had my mains pipe to the road replaced, after my last mock bill came it at $345. The reality for me, as well as many other residents, is that now we are on a water meter the problem of leaking infrastructure on private property sits where it always should have – with the property owner. It was money I’d rather have spent on something else, and I can hand-on-heart say that if we weren’t being metered I probably would have put the repairs off. Hitting me in the pocket was realistically the only way to get me to sort it, and I’m sure I’m not alone in that. So that can only be good for the town’s overall water consumption as people start paying attention. In good news, however, I found out that if you have a water leak and get it fixed, you can send through two readings 24 hours apart, as well as written confirmation of the repairs, and council will work out a new daily average. You will then be charged for that instead of the megabucks you lost through the leak. Good result, and I for one am

relieved about that. Also this week, there’s news of a mobility scheme on the horizon for the town’s elderly, which should hopefully go some way towards getting some of them out and about and enjoying life without going bankrupt in the process. And Grey Power is also compiling a database of people willing to help seniors around the house or paying them a visit – which undoubtedly be a good remedy for some of the loneliness we know can set in during that stage of life. So, if you have some skills you could offer, or just a listening ear over a cuppa, do get in touch with Grey Power. This kind of initiative has huge benefits for both the volunteer and the recipient. Have a great week, everyone and keep warm out there!
Editor Once again as part of its 10-year planning process the Waipa District Council has decided its priorities lie with the likes of a Discovery Centre, a Sport and Recreation Centre, heritage sites, and cycleways instead of attending to its basic responsibilities such as the long overdue improvement of some inner-city streets in Cambridge. Successive requests have been made over the years to remedy the appalling state of the northern end of Hall St which remains after several decades with incomplete kerbing, unfinished seal, and in one section relying on 50 per cent sub base rock and gravel; a safety hazard to vehicles and cyclists alike and a perpetual eyesore to say the least. Council initially advised that this situation was to ensure the roots of the large plane trees were not compromised, until it conceded that this had not been the case for some time and it was simply a matter as to when funds could be allocated. The advice then received was that reconstruction of the street would be completed in 2018, which was subsequently modified to between 2018 and 2028. However, in its latest communication this week council advises that “this should not be expected in the next ten years”. Council’s staggering justification
for this is that there are numerous streets like Hall St and so it will not make fixing these streets a priority. In other words there are a lot of streets requiring upgrading so they are not going to do any of them. This is despite plans having been completed for Hall St now for many years and council’s own admission some years ago that “Hall Street is not to the standards of surrounding areas”. This recent exercise to review the 10-year plan yet again makes a farce of the public input process and the cost involved – paid by ratepayers I might add - and appears simply designed to gain endorsement of the major cost initiatives already decided, indicating again a lack of honest and open democracy in our local government.

A dead pukeko received an unexpected paint job last week, courtesy of council contractors. The bird was sprayed over on Peake Rd – assuming it wasn’t taken out by the road marking truck in the first place – painted with double white lines instead of the road. A council spokesperson said that road marking trucks have an airbrush just before the spray nozzle that removes most items and provides a clean service to paint on. “Yes, we would expect roadkill to be removed before painting, but the contractor relies on the air brush.” If the air brush fails to remove the item, the paint is still applied, the spokesperson explained. “Mistakes do happen, but not many. “ “To minimise inconvenience to the public, much of the work is done at night so visibility isn’t always great,” they concluded.

Mobility scheme coming By Viv Posselt
Steps are being taken to make life easier for Waipa’s seniors. Cambridge and Te Awamutu will soon see the introduction of the Total Mobility Scheme (TMS), a subsidised taxi service aimed at easing transportation issues for the elderly. At the same time, Cambridge Grey Power head Val Massey is compiling a database of people willing to help seniors by doing light tasks around their home, or by simply paying them a visit. The moves are geared to increase seniors’ participation in community life and reduce the negative effects of loneliness. The TMS has been operating in various parts of the country for several years. It is organised and funded through a partnership between the Ministry of Transport and participating regional and local councils and is intended to help those with mobility constraints to remain active within their communities. It is not intended as a substitute for other transport services already in existence. Joining Val Massey at a meeting in Cambridge on Monday were Waipa District councillors Liz Stolwyk and Hazel Barnes, who said moves to incorporate the scheme in Waipa had been approved by council a week earlier. “We’re now ready to let people know and get it going,” said Liz. All three women recently attended the National Age Friendly Communities Forum, held in Wellington by the Ministry of Social Development.
They heard what central and local government partnerships were doing to meet the needs of New Zealand’s growing number of seniors. “We are aware we have a changing population in Waipa,” said Liz. “We have a significant and growing percentage of aged people, many of whom live very isolated lives. It’s important for us all to find ways to meet their needs. We might be behind other centres in bringing the Total Mobility Scheme to Waipa, but we are fast-tracking it now.” Figures suggest that almost 15 per cent of the Waikato population is over 65, and it is thought there are close on 8000 over-65s living in Waipa. Liz said a large percentage of occupants in Waipa’s 126 pensioner houses live alone. Many don’t drive and face transport problems. Hazel Barnes, who also heads Te Awamutu Grey Power, initiated the adoption of TMS in the district. Both she and Liz had been considering ways to enhance an existing age-friendly policy within WDC and knew that loneliness was one of the greatest problems faced by seniors with mobility issues. “There are practical difficulties, of course, and many prefer not to ask for help to do their shopping, for example, or go to activities,” she said. “It means they just stay at home. The loneliness they experience as a result is a big issue; it brings all sorts of other health-related problems. The implementation of this scheme will give them an opportunity to get out much more.”
Bonjour Bastille Day It’s time for some midwinter French fun to celebrate our sister city connection with Le Quesnoy. Bonjour Bastille Day in Cambridge is coming up on Saturday, July 14. There's lots happening, so pop into town to see the shops go French for the day. Plus, it's school holidays so there will be free activities for the kids at the Cambridge Farmers’ Market from 10 - 12. And if it's French food you’re after, come to the French lunch at the Cambridge Primary School hall or do a crepe workshop.
Cambridge Grey Power head Val Massey, left, with Waipa District councillors Liz Stolwyk and Hazel Barnes, discussing the Total Mobility Scheme earlier this week. Those eligible will be given a chit which offers them a discounted rate when using participating taxis. The next stage is nutting out the details and identifying potential users. “There is a lot of information we still need, but we should be able to get going within a few weeks,” said Hazel. She said anyone wanting more information about the scheme could call her on 07-870 1924 or email her at edithhazelbarnes@gmail.com.
Bookings for lunch and crepe workshop to Julie at djepps@ xtra.co.nz or (07) 827 8013. There will be entertainment and raffles from the Cambridge Brass Band at some point during the lunch, with proceeds from the lunch and crepe workshops going to help the brass band participate at the Le Quesnoy centenary commemorations in November.

Closed for Good wants you Quickfire News As the BNZ gears up for its annual nationwide Closed for Good volunteer day on August 8, the call has gone out for Cambridge organisations to get involved. This year, staff will be out and about teaching the community how to be good with money, using specially designed interactive tools. Merryl Anderson, the BNZ store manager, has been working for the BNZ since 2002, volunteering since the start of Closed for Good nine years ago. “There are six of us volunteering from the Cambridge store as well as a few of our partners,” Meryl said. “This year, Closed for Good gives us a chance to give back to our community and our customers, and share our financial knowledge with children, teens and even seniors to help them improve their financial know-how. “We went to Hamilton last year, as there were no registrations within Cambridge. Please encourage any local organisations you know, that fit the criteria, to register online. We’d love to make a difference in our own backyard on August 8th!” she concluded. Visit www.closedforgood.org to find out more.
Strikewatch
A threatened strike by nurses this Thursday has been called off, however a strike is still on the cards for next Thursday, July 12. The Nurses’ Organisation has recommended members accept the latest offer from DHBs, which includes pay rises of 12.5 to 15.9 per cent, to be rolled out over 25 months. There has also been $38M in extra funding to address serious staff shortages. Nurses are voting on whether to accept the package, with voting closing next Tuesday. Meanwhile, the New Zealand Educational Institute (NZEI) which has about 27,000 primary school staff on their books has said the strike announced for the afternoon of August 15 may extend to a full day. The union had asked for a 16 per cent pay increase, spread over two years, and other measures to address staffing and workload issues. BNZ staff across New Zealand will be teaching people how to be good with money on August 8, with the help of interactive technology.
Community events boosted
Expressway priority for WRC
The 2018 update to the Waikato Regional Land Transport Plan 2015-2045, adopted by Waikato Regional Council (WRC) last week, will see the Waikato Expressway completed to Cambridge – the region’s long standing top transport priority. The plan forecasts spending of almost $5.7 billion over the next 10 years for transport projects in the Waikato region. Of this, $4.7 billion comes from the National Land Transport Programme and the remainder from rates. Waikato regional councillor and regional transport committee chair Hugh Vercoe said the number one priority in the plan is construction of the expressway from Cambridge to the Piarere State Highway 1/29 intersection. “Hopefully there’ll be funding made available for this in the near future, because it has significant national and regional safety and access benefits,” said Cr Vercoe. The plan’s review was overseen by the Waikato Regional Transport Committee, which comprises elected members from Waikato’s regional and local councils and representatives from the NZ Transport Agency and NZ Police.
A boost in funding for the Stragglers Rod and Kustom Car Show at Karapiro means the annual fundraising event will be able to do even more for chronically ill local children. Eleven community events in the Waipa have been named as the first recipients of a new Community Event Fund established by Waipa District Council. The $30,000 fund aims to support grass-roots events which help build and celebrate community pride and maximise the district’s public places, introduced in addition to the wellestablished District Promotion Fund which is aimed at events which drive economic activity. The top four events that won this week’s allocation round are all based in Cambridge – the Stragglers Rod and Kustom Car Show, Cambridge Autumn Festival, Cambridge Cycling Festival and Waipa Fun Run, which all received $3,000 each. “We are very grateful to the Waipa
District Council for their continued support,” said Stacey Ward, a member of the Cambridge Stragglers Rod & Kustom Club. “Our event continues to grow, and we want to ensure that we can host a family friendly event that is accessible to all with free rides, inflatables and entertainment for children. We work hard to raise as much as we can for a group of chronically ill local children and this grant will help significantly with that.” Many of the allocations announced this week were given to applicants that had missed out on District Promotion Fund support, which next year will have a separate application process. In total $20,000 was allocated from the Community Event Fund, with committee members still holding $10,000 for ad hoc (additional) community requests.

Boomerang bags back in spotlight By Claire Castle
Community-minded people up and down the country will be firing up their sewing machines on Saturday, taking part in the first national Boomerang Bag sewing bee. The Cambridge collective will be joining in, churning out reusable bags from 1.30pm until 5pm at the Cambridge Health and Community
Centre on Taylor St. Their target from organisers is 13 bags to ensure that 1,000 will be made across the country during the sewing bee – no trouble for the locals who normally make between 110 and 150 at their weekly Sunday sewing session. The dedicated Cambridge group has been producing Boomerang Bags since late last year, encouraging
people to take one or two per family to use as part of a drive to increase the use of reusable bags in preference to plastic ones. Since they started, the collective has made 2,920 reusable bags that quickly get snapped up from the three stands in Cambridge. The national sewing bee is part of Plastic Free July, an awareness month encouraging people to look at their

use of single-use plastics. It’s also a good time for anyone with more than a couple of the Boomerang Bags at home, for whatever reason, to give the spares a wash and re-hang them on one of the collective’s stands outside New World, Fresh Choice or Wholly Cow. Some of the bags have found their way to op shops, one of the organisers Sam Brydon said, adding that they would much rather any unwanted bags went back onto their stands for someone else to use. With each bag taking around 45 minutes to produce, the Cambridge group has spent an estimated 2190 hours making these bags to reduce the town’s plastic load. Which is more than 90 days. The group expects to crack the 3000 mark at the sewing bee this weekend, with special mention to Dot Harding who has made more than 600 and Gloria Scott who has cranked out more than 400 bags so far. What an amazing effort.
Despite being called Boomerang Bags, there is no expectation that they be returned to the stands, as long as each family only takes one or two.
Win this prize in Plastic Free July, thanks to Waipa District Council.
Catch limits consultation Continued from page 1 fin, it becomes unviable to just to take shortfin. It’s more work, because of the sorting required, but you can only take half the catch. So we’re left with half our pay packet, with even more work. It’s not profitable. And there’s an awful lot of country like that which is really limiting where we can go even now. All the evidence points to increasing the TACC (Total Annual Commercial Catch limit), to decrease would seem to be a purely political decision.” “Fishing at the end of the day is about providing food.

THANKS FOR BEING PART OF WAIPĀ’S STORY FOR THE NEXT 10 YEARS Thanks to your feedback, we have made some big decisions and confirmed our 10-Year Plan.
THE BIG DECISIONS ARE… Te Awamutu town centre development
Cambridge Town Hall
We will get going with our $4m plans to upgrade three key streets in Te Awamutu – Market St, Mahoe St and Churchill St – plus invest in a new public space to link them together.
We have committed $4.4m to undertake further earthquake strengthening of the Cambridge Town Hall as well as make some improvements to the facility.
Work on this has been brought forward to this year.
Planning will begin this year and we are looking to start any structural changes in 2022.
Waipā Discovery Centre In partnership with Iwi, Council have confirmed we will build a Waipā Discovery Centre. Located in Te Awamutu, this will be a space where our community and visitors can discover Waipā’s diverse and largely unknown social, cultural and natural history. We’re getting right into it with design beginning this year. All up we have budgeted $12.1m for the design and build of the centre, of this we are expecting $5.1m to come from external funding, leaving a Council contribution of $7m.
Plus… In response to your feedback, Council also added some additional projects to the budget. Some of these include: •
granting $800,000 to expand the Cambridge Museum
•
providing space for a pump track in Cambridge
•
$250,000 for new public toilets in Pirongia
•
$30,000 each (per year) for the Cambridge and Te Awamutu i-SITEs.
Our significant heritage sites We will be investing an additional $3.6m over the next 10 years of the Plan on our significant cultural and ecological sites – particularly our New Zealand Land Wars sites so they can become visitor attractions and boost our district’s economy. The investment will go towards boardwalks, interpretative signage, creating better entranceways and improving public facilities such as toilets and changing areas. We will also focus on providing digital journeys for locals and visitors that enable people to really experience everything these sites have to offer.
You can find out exactly what your rates are looking like over the next 10 years by usi ng our onli ne rates calculator at futurewai pa.co.nz
Ōhaupō Sport and Recreation Centre
Development contributions
We are keen to grant $500,000 towards a new sport and recreation centre at Ōhaupō. However, in response to community feedback, will do further investigation over the next year to determine what areas of the district should fund the centre. At this stage funding is available in the 2020/21 financial year but it could be brought forward if the project needs it.
Council doesn’t believe it is fair for ratepayers to cover the interest component of development loans and has decided that when infrastructure is loan-funded by Council, the developer should bear the cost of interest. This is forecast to save ratepayers $39m over the next 10 years.
rates Our average annual rates increase over 10 years is 1.46% (not including water charges).

Band fundraising ongoing By Viv Posselt
Last month’s concert at St Peter’s School added another $3000 to the Cambridge Brass Band’s fundraising efforts for its November visit to France. The Cambridge Brass Band is one of the oldest community bands in the country; the June 24 fundraiser was in support of its first overseas trip. Because of the sister-city relationship shared by Cambridge and Le Quesnoy, the band was invited to take part in the November commemorations of the liberation of the French town, just 10 days before the end of World War One. Around $75,000 is needed to take the band to France. Fundraising was given a solid start with a $15,000 donation from the New Zealand/France Friendship Fund, followed by $5000 from the Lions Club of Cambridge. Other fundraising initiatives are continuing – including at the weekly Cambridge Farmer’s Market
and the monthly Trash ‘n Treasure market. The band has also set up a Givealittle page, and is applying for grants. While in France, the band will not only participate in the November 4 commemoration of the liberation of Le Quesnoy, but they will also play at the opening of the New Zealand War Museum in the town, perform in public concerts with the local youth band, and visit schools and retirement facilities. Band spokesman, assistant musical director and principal cornet player Rob Hocking said the concert at St Peter’s had been particularly successful in PR terms. “It brought us to the attention of many people who may not have seen us in Cambridge. We are also looking at the possibility of holding a farewell fundraising concert in October, just prior to departing for France.” The $3000 from ticket sales for the
St Peter’s concert were boosted by an additional sum of about $1000 raised through raffles drawn at the event. First prize was the Poppies of Remembrance Quilt donated by Heather Clarke; second was firewood donated by Jointwood Products; third was six bottles of wine; fourth was handcrafted kitchen accessories made by band member Bernadette Winter; and there were three spot prizes. Next in terms of fundraising is the band’s involvement in “Bonjour Bastille Day”, the third event of its type in Cambridge. Organiser Julie Epps said the July 14 celebration marked Cambridge’s sister-city connection with Le Quesnoy, and would this year offer a combined lunch event with the Cambridge Brass Band, the proceeds of
which will go towards the band’s trip. Apero French Cuisine is set to cater the event and will also offer crepe workshops. Local markets and retail outlets have pledged additional French flair, and tickets for the lunch – to be held at Cambridge Primary School hall from 11.30am - are available from Julie Epps, either via her email (djepps@xtra.co.nz), or on 827 8013. The Cambridge Brass Band Quintet will also play at Hamilton Museum at 3pm on Bastille Day. The free event will feature a concert of French-themed music.

Piano pitstop spreads joy By Claire Castle
Every day, after school, we are treated to a piano recital in the Cambridge News office, courtesy of passing teenager Damien Enright. Rain or shine, the 13-year-old Cambridge High student stops by on the way home to play the public piano outside the Deli on the Corner, entertaining passers by with mostly original compositions. And it’s all in his head, with the piano maestro admitting that he can’t read music yet. That’s set to change, however, because after nine years of playing the piano by ear he has started taking lessons and will be studying music at school next term. “For eight years I was just playing by ear…I am terrible at reading music,” he explained. Damien just has a piano keyboard at home, so the public
piano provides a chance for him to hone his skills on the real deal. “It’s a good way of relaxing,” he said, adding that he takes his inspiration from the streets of Cambridge.
So, if you happen to be downtown after school, make sure you keep an ear out for Damien and his original music. And the Pirates of the Caribbean song, too.

Steady hand for Cambridge Lions By Claire Castle
The Lions Club of Cambridge has a new president, with Jim Goddin taking the reins from Allan Field at a changeover dinner at the Moxon Centre recently. “I’m sure I never agreed to it,” Jim laughed, adding that his aim for the club is to keep it ticking over. With 88 members and four more awaiting induction, the Cambridge Lions Club is the biggest in the country. Jim has been in the club for four years
- its youngest member when he was asked to be president. Jim will have plenty on his plate, with the Lions’ Shed alone contributing $200,000 to the community, plus the monthly Trash ‘n’ Treasure and food caravan, the club is a big part of the town. He has yet to decide on his project, an initiative budgeted for and decided by the president. The president is elected annually, and there were also other board changes at the dinner on June 23 (see below).

The team from Fonterra’s Hautapu site with the best site cup, awarded for sustainability.
Hautapu takes the cup It’s third time lucky for Fonterra’s Hautapu site, who have once again taken out the Sustainability Cup at the Co-op’s Best Site Cup Awards for making sustainability a part of everyday decision making. Fonterra’s Best Site Cup Awards have been running annually for the past 12 years, showcasing excellence in dairy manufacturing across a range of categories from safety to sustainability, people to productivity. Entries in the Sustainability Cup are judged on their water, energy and waste reduction initiatives, as well as their engagement with the community. Hautapu has a proud heritage in the category having won it more than any other site, recording three victories since the awards began. This year the judges were impressed with their commitment from all levels and departments to keep sustainability top of mind in all their decision making, and highlights include a nine per cent
reduction in the site’s energy use and seven per cent reduction in water use over the past 12 months. Site Services Manager Scott Stratton said the site’s vision played a big part in guiding the team to their win. “Our vision of ‘delivering together’ and taking a leap of faith to meet challenging targets is embedded within everything we do at mighty Hautapu. By also applying this to our sustainability approach, everyone at all levels has stepped up with many small ideas that led us taking out top honours,” he said. Established in 1886, Hautapu has been manufacturing dairy products for more than 120 years, processing 150 tanker loads of milk each day at peak. It’s the only Fonterra site to make organic cheese and lactoferrin – also known as pink gold – that’s highly sought after in Asia and used in products such as infant formula to health foods and yogurt.

Thefts leave New World best dressed sour taste Submitted by Cambridge police In the past six months, police have received around 400 theft reports nationwide involving either beehives or honey. This high volume of thefts is likely due to the value of honey, particularly Manuka honey, and in some parts of the country the thefts are likely an organised operation. Beehive and honey thefts are devastating to the owners and costly to the whole industry, with thefts on the increase and a total cost estimated to be in the millions. The public are encouraged to report any incidents of beehive theft and suspicious behaviour, such as vehicles carrying hives. Police ask that the public record details such as vehicle registration and description, the direction of travel and a description of the hives. Preventative action is also encouraged, such as keeping hives in a locked, fenced-off area or at least out of sight, and keeping serial numbers or other identification details.
WELDING & SUPPLIES
The competition was fierce; however, New World Cambridge were
reportedly “unmissable” as they represented Cambridge, displaying
their store pride and cheering on their competing colleagues.
The Cambridge New World team took out best dressed at the recent Foodstuffs North Island Checker of the Year competition.
Students’ fast-track to work
Engineering students who get work placement at a Cambridge company are pretty much assured of something else – a job.

Checkout operators from around the region competed at Foodstuffs North Island’s 70th annual Checker of the Year competition, with a record number going tillto-till for top honours. To celebrate the platinum jubilee of the competition, which was originally known as the ‘Listing and Adding Competition’ where operators added the prices of items manually, the theme of the event was ‘blast from the past’. New World Cambridge impressed the judges and claimed the top spot as the best dressed store, beating 12 other Waikato stores for the title.
At the award-winning website builder Rocketspark’s office in Alpha St, Cambridge, the staff all have one thing in common. They are all University of Waikato graduates. And the trend will continue, because the innovative company formed by graduates Richard King, Lee Reichardt, Jeremy Johnson and Grant Johnson has a policy of tapping into talent through the work placement programme offered at the University of Waikato. Rocketspark have traditionally taken a student from the programme for a work placement, then retained them by offering them continued employment after they complete their placement. Rocketspark is a platform that customers can use to design their own website or ecommerce store on. It also works with an army of graphic designers nationally and internationally who work with customers. Mead Blackmore is the latest student from Waikato to benefit from work experience at Rocketspark. The undergraduate, who is
studying a Bachelor of Engineering (Honours) majoring in software, has been with the company since last August. “He came onboard to do his summer work placement which has led on to continued casual employment with Rocketspark while he continues his studies,” Richard King explained. His current tasks include providing customer support and coding up
website designs for customers who purchase extra design packages. Mead, who grew up in Cambridge and has been a volunteer in the town’s Search and Rescue organisation, relishes the opportunity to work and study at the same time. “Here I am dealing with customers and work in a team – it’s a bit different from the study exercises where I am looking at one-time algorithms.”

Line dancers in the pink Karapiro team wins again By Marie Double, Waipa Wranglers Line Dancers Waipa Wranglers Line Dancers hosted about 100 keen dancers from around the North Island at their annual fundraising social on June 23, in aid of NZ Breast Cancer pink ribbon appeal. This year as well as the “pink” theme, we had a salute to the 100year anniversary of the Armistice, in memory of the brave men and women who fought in World War 1 and the families that kept the home fires burning here. The Great War Medley was choreographed by Waipa Wrangler members, who danced in 1918
uniforms and fashion of the era. It was danced to a medley of WW1 songs including Pack Up Your Troubles and Long Way to Tipperary and was well-received by our visitors. A gloomy winter day was brightened by dance, music and good fellowship, which is what line dancing is all about – so why not give it a try? Waipa Wranglers Line Dancers meet every Tuesday at Trinity Parish Church hall, corner Queen and Bryce Sts in Cambridge, beginners 12.30– 1.30pm, improvers upwards 1.30–3.30. For more information phone Marie on (07) 823 3428.

The annual interschool science and technology competition sees teams compete across a series of construction tasks, using a set list of equipment to meet each challenge and earn points. The Formidable Alliance were due to compete in the finals on Thursday this week.

Bridge team takes silver Community Trike update By Eunice Eccles, Cambridge Bridge Club ‘Congratulations’ to the Cambridge Club Bridge team, which came second overall in the Waikato Interclub Team Tournament. Competing in teams of four at Hamilton Bridge Club against nine other clubs from across Waikato with teams of junior, intermediate and open grade players - all team members proudly wore the Cambridge blue scarves made by Beth, working together to secure second place behind the Waikato Club, which took top honours. The two top teams in each section go forward to compete against the
Waikato Bays Clubs winners who compete in a separate tournament. It was the success of the juniors and intermediates that determined the overall placing. The juniors were the stars of the day, scoring big results in both morning and afternoon sessions, which left them second overall in the junior section. This means that a Cambridge junior team will be in the final which will take place in Cambridge next month. The intermediate and open teams played steadily and finished more in the middle of the pack, both coming in fourth, contributing to the overall results.

By Aaron Ure, Avantidrome Community Trikes (abridged) The first half of 2018 has certainly been an exciting one, with a whopping 547 rides completed by group and individual riders around the Waikato community. These riders clocked up 2077km from the trikes that have milometers attached. Our riders continue to push the boundaries of what they felt was possible for them six months ago and for some even a month ago. A highlight of the last few weeks was a visit from riders at Lauriston Park (pictured). Without hesitation they strutted their stuff, proving that retirement does not include withdrawal from life and its challenges. ‘Relentless’ is that word that comes to mind, that and ‘bushed’, after trying to keep up with them. This month we will be able to purchase a Hase recumbent foot
trike as part of our ongoing fleet upgrades and improvements thanks to the Cambridge Rotary Club. Their generous donation will give many riders with severe limitations the option to ride more often. In addition, we will also be loaned the following trikes: • An adult Hase Recumbent hand crank from Evan Clulee in Auckland • A side by side trike/cart from Adam at Outdoor Top Toys. A great multipurpose rider and passenger trike that will support non-riders to get a feel for the thrill of riding If you have not yet been on the trikes or would like another crack at it, just ring the office to book in on 07 8231421. If you would like to discuss options for one on one, group bookings or request someone to come and speak with your group, email trikes@avantidrome.nz.

Trikers proving their pedal power By Sophie Iremonger
A few local inspirational types are proving that almost anything is possible with the right attitude. Aaron Ure, Heather Brand, and Joseph Leet are raising the bar with what they can do – challenging themselves to take on the Hamilton Half Marathon on their trikes at the end of September. It’s the third time for Aaron, second time for Heather and first time for Joseph, with each setting a goal to improve their personal-bests and reach bigger milestones than they have before. All three locals, who are involved in the Avantidrome’s community trikes programme, have some sort of “limiting” condition, but are proving that the only limits are in the mind. “Our trikers all have made a choice that they are going to move beyond their disability, and make that effort,” said Aaron, who facilitates the trikes programme. “I’d love to get more people from the community involved, and they don’t have to have a disability… Once you start achieving something, even something small, it’s like, ‘oh, maybe I can go that little bit
further’.” “We’re trying to be inspirational for those with no excuses, we’ve got an excuse, but we get out!” Heather smiled. The trio, along with fellow Avantidrome triker and stroke survivor Colin Atkin, from Rotorua, are doing a special segment of the Hamilton Half Marathon where they can use their trikes, either across 5km, 10km or the full 21km half marathon. They would love to see more people push themselves and take on the challenge, whether using a mobility aid or their own two feet. Having practiced on the Avantidrome trikes for over a year now, Joseph Leet, who was born with cerebral palsy, is doing the event for the first time on his new trike donated recently by the Cambridge Lions. “Joseph’s balance and general fitness has improved a lot since he’s started using the trikes,” said Aaron. “When he first started coming he had a person on either side to help support him. Now he just doesn’t require anyone to support him… I thought he was going to do the five K, but he’s
enrolled for the ten K which is a big step up.” “I’m very excited about doing it and looking forward to doing it with Aaron and Heather,” said Jo. After doing 10km last year, Heather said completing the 21km this year would be a “big achievement” and would leave her “on top of the world”. After 12 years with Parkinson’s disease, Heather joined the community trikes programme a couple of years ago and has had massive improvement since.
“When I first started I couldn’t ride a bike at all, and Aaron turned me around,” she said. Aaron explained that after 30 years as a support caregiver, a few workplace accidents led to him needing a bit of support himself, about ten years ago. “I’m just thrilled to have the opportunity again,” he said of doing the 21km half marathon. “If I can beat my personal best that would be really good, but beyond that, to see more trikes involved in community activities, that would be the
icing on the cake for me.” All three are members of Achilles, an organisation dedicated to supporting people with disabilities into main stream sports competitions. The group exercises weekly in Hamilton and could soon be setting up a branch in Cambridge.

Know your local school principal Caring parents want to see their children thrive, be happy, achieve and develop into a well-rounded adult. Education has a big impact on how we perform in our late teens and adulthood. Choosing the right school for your child is important as it can make a big difference to their happiness, well-being, self-esteem and performance. Research shows that making a decision based solely on a school's academic achievements can be misleading. Parents should give base their decision on how well the school functions, particularly in terms of the
relationships a child is likely to build with friends and teachers. Confidence and self-worth grow from warm, secure relationships. A child will adjust to school life much easier if they feel safe and accepted. The emphasis a school places on values should also be taken into account. Values-based education creates a strong learning environment that enhances academic achievement and develops students' social and relationship skills that last throughout their lives. Try and get a feel for the school before you enrol your child. Talk to

Know your local school principal the principal and teachers, as well as the parents and children who attend the school. Are they happy? Do you sense a positive vibe? Is there friendly, open communication between teachers and students? Are they culturally respectful? How your child will get to and from school also has to be considered. Some country schools provide a bus service, so don't be too quick to dispel rural options. If you're in walking or cycling distance of the school, you'll want to ensure the route is safe. A school's pick-up and drop-off facilities are also important as traffic can become very
congested at the start and end of the school day. And check for any zoning restrictions. Other factors in your decision process may include the availability of before and after school care, school uniforms and school fees. If your child has special needs, then you'll want to know how best they'll be supported in the school environment. Ask around. School families develop networks. Attend open days or information evenings. Visit the school's website and while you're online also check the Education Review Office (ERO) report.

Cycling champs this weekend By Sophie Iremonger
Students from Wellington to Whangarei will gather in town this weekend for the North Island Secondary School Road and Track Cycling Champs. The roads of Roro-o-rangi will be teeming with cyclists throughout Saturday and Sunday, racing specialized courses along Maungatautari, Redoubt and Kairangi Rds. Track cycling will kick off on Sunday afternoon at the Avantidrome, carrying on through to Monday night. It’s free for spectators, so why not get out there and cheer on our local Cambridge High and St Peter’s School cyclists? It will be the last year that Ally Wollaston competes in schools’ cycling. The Year 13 St Peter’s student topped the tables at last year’s event, finishing first in the criterium for the second year in a row as well as coming second in the road race. “I want to win the criterium,” she smiled, “I don’t want to break the streak now!” After falling sick, Ally wasn’t able to show off her impressive skills on the track last year but she looks forward to demonstrating her pedal power this weekend. “My (plan of attack) would be to stay healthy
this year, because that didn’t happen last year,” she said. “Especially heading into the Junior Worlds training camp the day after the competition finishes.” Meanwhile Cambridge High School’s Mya Anderson, who cleaned up at last year’s North Island champs with wins across all her track races, as well as first place in the road race, is looking forward to adding the criterium title to her belt, having finished second last year. “I would really like to win the criterium since I’ve got second for the last two years,” the Year 11 student said. Just a month out from the competition, a rogue stick caused Mya to crash off her bike, spraining her wrist and thumb. It’s been a gentle balance between healing and training since then, transitioning back into somewhat-normal training over the past fortnight. “I’ve just gotten straight back into it, just for the North Islands,” she said. Despite the setback Mya plans to grab the top titles once again. “Competition’s going to be a bit harder this year, some girls have gotten really good,” she said. “Having my sister there competing will be quite cool too.”
In addition to going out with a victorious bang, Ally looks forward to watching and encouraging the younger St Peter’s riders as the school’s team captain. “It will be pretty cool to see the younger riders getting in amongst it, seeing them do well racing, watching
them learn, it’s pretty cool,” she said. Both the girls advised that cyclists this year should make sure they stay warm, “because it makes a huge difference if you’re cold when you’re riding,” said Ally. “I think the most important
thing for the new riders is to not take it too seriously, it’s a school event, it’s not the Olympics, it’s important to have fun and not psych yourself up too much.” “Just stay safe and have fun,” Mya added. “It’s all about learning.”
Cambridge’s student cyclists Ally Wollaston (left) and Mya Anderson (right) said the most important thing for those taking part in the NISS Cycling Champs was to have fun.

CHS lacrosse win by forfeit Cambridge High School took on Morrinsville College on Sunday, coming away with the win by forfeit. Despite the Morrinsville team showing up three short with only five players, they played on regardless, forfeiting the chance for victory and taking on two Cambridge High School players for the game. But really it was Anthony Warrington, who coaches both teams, who showed true dedication to the sport, turning up to watch the game just four days after an ACL operation – and spending the next 20 hours with his leg propped up in bed as a result. “I coach both teams, so I decided to step out and let the captains run the show for the sake of fairness and to give the teams a break from my nannying,” Warrington said. “In the first half of the game our
turncoat player Johannes Brown all too happily scored a hat trick against his own team, Cambridge, also securing himself a set of ten sprints at training next week. Our Cambridge lads, although on poor form, managed to score a couple back. “At the end of the day, with the game being a scrimmage, I wasn’t too bothered by the results. I’m happy that my junior players had more opportunity for game time and my older players had more opportunity to practice their leadership skills. We’re using this as an opportunity to learn more about what we need to practice over the school holidays before we come back for the second part of the season.” Player of the day was Johannes Brown. The next game is on Sunday, July 29, at the Inline Hockey Rink, Hamilton, against Player of the day went to Johannes Brown, pictured tackling in shirt number 5. Hamilton Boys, 4pm.

Cambridge-trained The Bostonian added a second Australian stakes race to his resume when he took out the Group Three Sunshine Coast Guineas (1600m) at the Sunshine Coast on Saturday. The Tony Pike-trained son of Jimmy Choux partnered with jockey Michael Cahill was the hot favourite and the faith of the punters was well placed when he won by three-quarters of a length, despite some setbacks that almost saw a premature return to New Zealand. “It has been well-documented, we scratched him a couple of times early because of wide barriers,” Pike said. “Then he got bitten by a green ant or spider.” “He is a pretty good horse with a bright future,” Cahill said. The three-year-old’s goal of the Queensland Guineas had to be put on hold when he became unwell. “We had to treat him and by the time he was ready to race the winter was pretty well over,” Pike said. Sydney or Melbourne spring carnivals are options for The Bostonian who showed he was up to the challenge with his mile win in the Sunshine Coast Guineas. “It is obviously a step up for the Sydney or Melbourne races,” Pike said. “We will work out where when the dust settles.” Pike had considered sending The Bostonian home when things seemed to go from bad to worse for the gelding. “But we had confidence in him.”

Iwan Dawes on the break for his runaway try
Two from two for Hautapu Submitted by Hautapu Sports Club Playing away at Collins Rd, Melville, this week in front of a very vocal home crowd, Hautapu were first to get points on the board with a penalty to Todd Doolan. Melville soon hit back with converted try scored out wide from a breakaway inside their own half. Melville followed this with a second try to their 2nd 5/8 under the posts off a set piece to take a good lead. Hautapu managed to claw one back late in the first spell, with a try to Mike Mayhew from a well-constructed lineout drive. The halftime score was 8-14 to the hosts. Hautapu opened the scoring early in the second spell to grab the lead, from
the restart play moved from one end to the other with neither team managing to gain any ascendancy in this bruising game. Hautapu repelled Melville a number of times close on their line, however Melville eventually crossed mid-way in the half to close the game up. Ciarahn Matoe kept Hautapu in the game, with a long-range penalty and a try to leave Hautapu with a slim 4-point lead. With time almost up, Ciarahn slotted another penalty to bring the final score to 28-21 in favour of Hautapu. Next week we are home for the last time in round robin play to Morrinsville sports who will be filled
with vigour after beating Hamilton Marist 13-12 this weekend. Premier Bs thump Melville The development lads got off to a flyer, with a good team effort seeing Josh Wood dive in by the post to start the scoring. This was quickly followed by Mitch Pettit having a sterling game from fullback, scoring the first of his 2 tries and earning him the Player of the Day award. At this stage Melville got their game plan into action and took it to the Hautapu Bs through the forwards and around the fringes. Our static defence allowed them easy yardage and conceded two tries. Both teams scored a penalty to go to the break 17 all. Stern words by the coaches sent the team out with a clear plan. After
conceding an early penalty, the forwards started to make headway with the defensive line moving up to shut down the opposition before the advantage line creating mistakes and turn over. The backs found the space to attack and that they did with five converted tries coming in the second half. Iwan Dawes had a runaway try of his own as well as a 100 per cent kicking game. Mitch Petitt’s 2nd try was sublime with a kick and retrieve down the side line. The final score was 52-25 – well done lads. Thanks to our sponsors and supporters who travelled to Melville. Next week we will be at home against Morrisville, see you there and come into the clubrooms and enjoy our hospitality.

Goal eases pressure on Reds By Josh Easby
While Uruguay were putting Portugal out of football’s World Cup in Russia, Cambridge’s fortunes in the Northern League were being boosted by their own Uruguayan hero. South American-born Marcelo Sosa, playing his first season for the Reds, scored a spectacular winning goal to give Cambridge a vital 1-0 victory against Onehunga Mangere United. When the Aucklanders failed to clear a corner in the 52nd minute of their match at John Kerkhof Park, 30-year-
old Sosa coolly volleyed his shot past OMU goalkeeper Hamish Connolly. The goal – and the Reds’ first clean sheet of the season – ensured a first win for Cambridge coach Paul Richardson who had endured five frustrating draws since taking charge in early May. For the opening 20 minutes, Cambridge exerted all the pressure and had the best of the chances. But it was Onehunga Mangere who almost scored first when they found the net in the 37th minute only to have it ruled offside. In the second half, both teams had
opportunities from set pieces, but Sosa’s goal proved to be the difference. The win lifts Cambridge into midtable and leaves Onehunga Mangere United flirting with the relegation zone. After the match, Cambridge coach Richardson named centre back Jack Portegys as the Player of the Day
while OMU’s coach Brian Turner chose goalkeeper Connolly as his side’s best performer. This Saturday, Cambridge head to Auckland for a mid-table clash with Metro FC and a win will lift the Reds above their opponents and into sixth spot on the 12-team table.
Club’s youngest coach wins volunteer award By Josh Easby
Hamish Durran-Wolff has learned at an early age the value of giving back to his community. The 11-year-old footballer is one of the youngest volunteers at Cambridge FC where he referees and coaches a 7th-grade team, Cambridge Argentina. He’s become one of the youngest qualified coaches in the region, having attained his Junior Level 1 coaching accreditation, and he’s been an enthusiastic attendee at monthly coaching development sessions run by former All Whites coach Ricki Herbert. “It all started when the Argentina
team didn’t have a coach at the start of the season, and my dad suggested I should give it a go,” Hamish says. Since then, he’s become a committed coach, earning praise from the parents of those he helps. On Sundays, he plays for the club’s U-12 boys team in the WaiBOP Federation Junior League. He’s one of more than 100 volunteers who collectively contribute more than 30,000 hours a year of unpaid work to keep Cambridge FC running all year. For his efforts, Hamish is the latest winner of the club’s Volunteer of the Week award. He receives a $50 voucher from club sponsor Onyx Cambridge.

FRIDAY JULY 6, 2018
Murray and Bond awarded 2018 Thomas Keller Medal Created in 1990, the Thomas Keller Medal celebrates athletes who have had an outstanding career in rowing. It honours those who have shown exemplary sportsmanship and technical mastery of the sport as well as having shown a legendary aspect both in and outside of their rowing career. Known as the most prestigious medal awarded in rowing, the 2018 Thomas Keller Medal was awarded to Eric Murray and Hamish Bond by the World Rowing Federation, FISA. These two very different athletes became tied together when they united in the men’s pair in 2009. They
then began an unprecedented 69-race winning streak. This streak included two Olympic gold medals (2012 and 2016) and eight world championships titles. They also claimed world best times in two boat classes, the men’s pair and men’s coxed pair. These times still stand today. The duo raced together at the 2008 Olympics in the men’s four and a seventh-place finish left them disappointed but brought them back on the road to pairs success. Medals will be awarded at the 2018 World Rowing Cup III in Lucerne, Switzerland on July 14 2018. During the award ceremony, an 18-carat gold
More Cambridge football results
Cambridge’s reserves, who won by default last weekend when OMU failed to field a team for their fixture, will play Metro in the early game this Saturday, seeking their eighth win in a row. In the Loaded WaiBOP Championship last weekend, Cambridge had a bye. Cambridge’s Waikato A team were chasing their fourth win in a row when they headed to Melville United’s Gower Park, but lost a close encounter 3-2. Peter Buesnel scored both Cambridge goals, one from the penalty spot. The Cambridge D2 team Northern United 2-1 in an upset win at John Kerkhof Park, a result that helps fellow club side D1s retain top spot in the division. Scorer of both goals for the D2s was Rob Dickson. The D1 team had a bye but go into the
quarter finals of the Waikato Plate this Saturday, hosting Te Aroha Cobras in a 2pm match. Cambridge’s women’s team moved into second place on the Waikato Women’s A League table with a 1-0 win at Claudelands Rovers’ Galloway Park. Scorer was Rachel Hill, with her 18th goal of the season. The Hill Homes Player of the Day was awarded jointly to Gemma Martin and Carey Ireland. The Cambridge women play in the quarter finals of the Waikato Women’s Cup on Sunday, hosting Tokoroa at John Kerkhof Park for an 11am game. In the WaiBOP Federation Junior League, Cambridge’s U-12 side went down 3-2 to Taupo at Crown Park after leading 1-0 at half-time. Both Cambridge goals were scored by Jamie Kenny.
medal will be bestowed to Eric and Hamish by Dominik Keller, the son of FISA’s former president Thomas Keller. “To be awarded the Thomas Keller Medal has shown that ‘The Kiwi Pair’ has extraordinarily contributed to the rowing world,” said Murray. “We set out to win an few races and compete against the world, and the byproduct of trying to be the best we could be consistently, has left a legacy which will be there forever. We’ve always been privileged to represent our country and the sport of rowing to the wider global community. We had utmost respect for our competitors and have enjoyed the
rivalries. It’s the greatest honor from the sport which has already given so much to us, and we thank the rowing world for this acknowledgment”. Hamish Bond, currently cycling in Wales, said, “Just being nominated for the highest honour the sport of rowing offers is pretty special. When you look at the list of previous winners, the potential to have your name up along such luminaries is more than I ever expected to achieve in the sport. Typically the award is given to individuals but given that my career has been intertwined with Eric’s, it’s an honour to win this award together.”
A bit nippy on it It was a freezing Saturday morning of sport last week, and with a blanket of fog covering the town’s fields and a frost underfoot. There were tears from some less enthusiastic participants, and plenty of numb extremities on the side lines. Georgia Davis was one of the young Cambridge sportspeople braving the cold for Saturday sport last week, turning out for the Cambridge U12 Panthers girls’ soccer team.

After a failed attempt to recover a stolen baby panda, police dog Max reluctantly teams up with a human FBI agent named Frank. A hot tip leads Max and Frank to Las Vegas for the world's most exclusive dog show. To find the panda, Max goes undercover as a contestant to get the lowdown from his fellow canines. With help from their new friends, the crime-fighting duo must now foil another kidnapping plot and rescue other valuable animals from a gang of greedy smugglers. It’s dog-gone good. (The censored cut version.)
Join our favourite monster family as they embark on a vacation on a luxury monster cruise ship so Drac can take a summer vacation from providing everyone else's vacation at the hotel. It’s smooth sailing for Drac’s Pack as the monsters indulge in all of the shipboard fun the cruise has to offer, from monster volleyball to exotic excursions, and catching up on their moon tans. But the dream vacation turns into a nightmare when Mavis realizes Drac has fallen for the mysterious captain of the ship, Ericka, who hides a dangerous secret that could destroy all of monster kind.
