Lions roaring ahead

By Sophie Iremonger

The Cambridge Lions are full steam ahead under their new president Steph Dunsmore.

The third-year Lion started her role on July 1 as the organisation’s fifth female president, and as a slightly younger-than-average Lion at the age of 51.

It’s a good trend for the future of the organisation, with outgoing president Jim Goddin finishing his tenure at 42.

“I’m really looking forward to working with the group, because it’s a great group, and hopefully it will be another good year for us, because it’s a really busy club,” Steph said at Thursday’s Lions Shed open morning.

“We’re looking forward to a change with old and new, new ideas, encouraging new people to join, men, women, younger age.

We’re not fussy!”

The club has seen several younger people join in recent years, even a few teenagers and twenty-somethings. It’s the largest Lions branch in the country with 83 members, soon to be 89, but it still needs new blood to keep it that way – with most members being in their 60s and 70s.

“It’s nice to see somebody nice and young coming in,” Cambridge Lion Gayle Hart said of Steph’s induction as president.

Former president Betty Busst added, “It’s good because she’s bringing in new ideas and things to the club, which we need. It’s the younger generation, and you need different ideas, things go on.”

BACK TO SCHOOL SPECIAL

After New Zealand recorded one of the driest autumns on record, the winter season has made up for it generously.

The first week of July recorded the highest amount of rainfall so far this winter with 58mls recorded near Te Awamutu on July 4.

This week started off not much better with a stormy gale overnight on Monday.

Rainfall on Tuesday morning showed 15mls of rain had fallen over the 24 hour period, compared to 0.5 the week before.

After a week of scattered showers Met Service expects more rainfall, possibly thunderous at times, to continue tomorrow.

But next week is set to look much better with sunny skies forecast Sunday to Thursday and highs of 15 degrees.

With those clear skies comes colder temperatures overnight, though. After average nightly temperatures of 7 degrees this week, next week’s night time temperatures will average 3 degrees.

There is some hope, though, with only six more weeks until the first day of spring.

Fiesta fun A group of French students from Cambridge High School recently held a fundraiser for their upcoming trip to France in April 2020. This ‘Street Food Fiesta’ night had a bit of everything with a wide range of entertaining challenges and games that included hat making, cheese rolling and singing competitions. Wonderful raffles, prizes and stylish auctions were also included in between international themed dinner courses, with tasty creations from Italy, Asia, USA, and desserts from France and NZ. The event was a great success, raising over $4,000 towards next year’s trip. This could not have been possible without the generosity of Cambridge businesses, who kindly donated goods for the raffles. Special thanks to: Comins Pharmacy, Nouveau Hair Boutique, Mitre 10 Cambridge, Paper Plus Cambridge, Cambridge Fine Wines, Cambridge Repertory Society, Tivoli Theatre, Cambridge Mini Golf, Narelle Huggins Artist, Waikato Rugby Union, Pure Handmade, Made by Me, Wallflower Posters, Zen Medi Spa and Wellness, Leven, Amour de Pavot, Carmen Rautenbach, The Cambridge Picklery, The Good Home Project, Oderings and Hot Shots to Go. Your support was greatly appreciated and has helped the students get one step closer to a trip of a lifetime!

Has anyone else discovered that mail they

have posted hasn’t arrived at its destination?

A cheque sent to pay an account to a Hamilton business in March has never arrived. A birthday card sent to a family member in Auckland in May has never arrived. Both had the proper postage and had my return address on the back of the envelope. They haven’t arrived back. Now I am wondering if any of the bereavement cards sent in the last few months have ever arrived. Beside increasing the postage, Is this just another way for N.Z. Post to discourage us from sending mail?

Raewyn McMurray NZ Post responds: We are very sorry to read of Ms McMurray’s recent experiences. We work hard to deliver all letters quickly, safely, and correctly. While in the overwhelming majority of instances we do achieve this, due to the nature of logistics, on rare occasions, losses can occur.

We encourage all customers to ensure that they use a valid postal address, and also check the size of their letter to confirm the correct postage costs are applied. Both addressing requirements and postage costs can be verified using our website www.nzpost.co.nz.

If a letter does not arrive as expected, we would recommend that the sender contacts our National Contact Centre with as many posting details as possible to enable a search of our Returned Letters’ Office.

Any letter that cannot be delivered for any reason is forwarded to our Returned Letters Office where it is processed in accordance with the Postal Services Act.

Unit failure has ripple effect

By Sophie Iremonger

Waipa Networks has responded to an outpouring of complaints

by Cambridge residents last week whose hot water tanks were switched off between Saturday evening and early Monday morning, saying it will reimburse people who called in electricians or plumbers to fix the apparent incident.

Over 8,000 Cambridge area properties are connected to the powerline company’s substation ripple plant which switches their hot water off during peak usage times, for a reduced fee. Usually residents don’t notice because the heating system in their hot water tanks is switched back on before

the water cools down.

But on Saturday night a unit at the plant failed. Usually repairs can be made then-and-there with spare parts and technicians available on site, but after working through the night the problem couldn’t be fixed and a back-up full replacement unit was brought in from Auckland and installed by 1.30am Monday.

“The ripple plant is a reliable but complex piece of equipment,” said Waipa Networks CEO Adam Fletcher. “Failure of this nature is not common and our fault response staff worked tirelessly through the weekend to get this sorted for our customers.”

The Waipa Networks’ Facebook page received many angry comments from customers affected

Lions roaring head Continued from page 1

Betty was the first ever female member of the Cambridge Lions when she joined in 1999.

“It was 63 men and me,” she said, admitting it was quite daunting to walk into a room full of men.

“Some of them wanted me there and some didn’t!” she laughed. “I just quietly made my way in.”

Becoming the club’s first female president in 2002 was a push even further into unchartered territory, but one she was glad she did.

“We’ve got about 38 women members now, the highest number of female members ever,” she said.

She was proud to see Steph make it as female president number five, and with Jan Howie waiting in the wings to become number six next year. After Betty went Robyn Coutts as the second female president, Gayle Riddle third and Faye Gohns fourth.

Steph said Betty was a “star” and “paved the way” for women in the organisation. She wasn’t too concerned with being recognised for her new role, but instead pointed out what all the Lions are doing for Cambridge.

“I think people aren’t really aware of everything we do for the community,” she said. “We all dedicate an extraordinary amount of hours to the club, because we’re all volunteers.”

Through their fundraising work, which includes the Lions Shed op shop on Vogel St, the monthly Trash n Treasure Market and the Lions food caravan, each year the club puts about $160,000 back into the community, helping many dozens of Cambridge projects and people.

“Cambridge is a really generous community, and it’s because of that that we can do what we do,” said Steph. “But we’re actively looking for new members so we can continue that well into the future.”

She said she was humbled to be the club’s 58th president, and despite also being a full-time real estate agent, saw it as a good challenge for the year. “Like anything you just find the time, we all do, and just do what you can.”

by the outage and concerned about the lack of updates on its website.

“Our Network management system automatically provides website updates related to major power outages, but this was something that was not related to an actual loss of power so would not normally register,” Fletcher explained. “We were able to place Facebook posts with updates and limited information. People appreciated this but clearly there is an opportunity to improve our communications to customers.”

The company confirmed it will reimburse people who were unaware of the situation during the hot water outage and called in an electrician or plumber to try and fix the issue. “We ask that

people please get in touch if they have received bills as a result of the incident.”

Fletcher confirmed the company would be making investments to upgrade their outage notification and communication systems.

Ripple control systems have been in use in New Zealand since the 1960s. They’re generally unnoticed and are highly reliable in reducing peak demand on the network, which reduces the cost overall to customers. Ripple control times are in winter when most people are heating their homes, generally around 7am – 8.30am and 6pm – 8.30pm.

Waipa Networks said it had not received any calls from customers requesting removal of the ripple

relay on their hot water tank. “We hope that people recognise the benefit of remaining as it does make a significant difference to long term investment needs of the network.”

The flags flew on Bastille Day

Cambridge made a salute to Le Quesnoy on Sunday as residents celebrated the town’s French sister city connection with the annual Bastille Day celebrations.

French flags flew, French foods were enjoyed and French colours could be seen throughout the town as the Cambridge-Le Quesnoy Friendship Association hosted activities and encouraged shops to go French for the day.

“Some of Cambridge’s shops went all out French-for-theday and some for the whole week, dressing up their shops in the distinctive red, white and blue of France,” explained Julie Epps, an organiser and member of the sister city association. “It was a happy French vibe in Cambridge.”

The event coincided with the Cambridge Lions Trash ‘n’ Treasure market, where croissants were enjoyed, the local brass band played, and kids took part in a French quiz. Students from Cambridge Primary School presented a very informative Bastille Day information board to help visitors understand the event, and a life-size photo board of the last French royalty, King Louis XVI and Queen Marie Antoinette, provided a great photo opportunity amidst much amusement.

“Kids and adults had fun putting their heads in the photo board and having their photos taken as French royals.”

The top six winning entries of the Bastille Day colouring were also on display. These included the winners of the sixyears-old and under section – Monavale Maugham, Ariana Hurst and Nate, and winners of the seven to 12 years old competition – Jake Matetaka, Emma Ervine and Alexander.

Each won a PaperPlus voucher sponsored by Bayleys Cambridge.

Cambridge’s biggest French fans enjoyed a three-course progressive dinner that evening with 46 locals turning out to enjoy entrees at Alpha Street Kitchen, mains at Onyx and dessert and coffee at Absolute Coffee House.

“It was a unique evening enjoying a superb trio of Cambridge restaurants, beautifully prepared French dishes,

Group set to keep Cambridge beautiful

By Sophie Iremonger

The call is out for Cambridge residents who are passionate about their community.

With the aim of securing a place as New Zealand’s “Most Beautiful Town”, a Cambridge branch of Keep New Zealand Beautiful (KNZB) is being set up to help beautify the town and involve residents in enhancing community assets.

Having made runner up in 2017 and missing the shortlist for last year’s awards, Philip Coles from the Cambridge Community Board learned from the award organisers that in order to improve our entry, we need to ramp up community involvement in projects which help

to enhance the town and educate people in the process. A local branch of KNZB would help, too.

And so a branch is being set up to do just that, but it needs volunteers who are proud Cambridge residents to step up for the cause.

“The committee will work with local community groups like the Cambridge Tree Trust and the Cambridge Community Garden, as well as artists, students and anyone passionate about improving our town,” Coles explained.

“One of the big things why we haven’t really won the award is through education with the community, and community involvement. It’s not just having nice flowers and nice trees, it’s

lets give it a go.

“It’s about that real community involvement, over and above anything else that’s been done. … That’s all part of keeping New Zealand beautiful and improving our town.”

The group’s application process would be funded and supported by the Cambridge Community board.

Already some members of local organisations have expressed an interest in being part of the group, but the opportunity is open to all, including high school students, retirees, anyone passionate about enhancing Cambridge.

To find out more or to get involved, email philip.coles.nz@ gmail.com or phone 021 432 767.

Cambridge Community Board member Philip Coles is inviting locals to get involved in a “Keep Cambridge Beautiful” committee to help further beautify the town and enhance community assets.

Harry has X-linked agammaglobulinemia, which is an extremely rare genetic disorder that affects the body’s ability to fight infection.

Thankfully, the condition can be managed by an infusion of a plasma product called Evogam, which he will receive every week for the rest of his life.

Many Kiwis, like Harry, need regular infusions of plasma products to be able to live a normal life. Plasma is also known as ‘liquid gold’ and rightfully so, as it can be made into 12 different lifesaving products.

Plasma can be given at the Hamilton Donor Centre and requires some additional eligibility criteria to be met. Those interested in becoming a plasma donor can visit www.nzblood.co.nz or call 0800 448 325 for more information.

Asuka Burge from the New Zealand Blood Service said the organisation needs more people to start donating plasma.

community involvement in projects and volunteer work, and portraying that in our application.

“It does involve beautifying the town but also improving our community assets and making our public areas more beautiful or special by extracting talent from our community, like artists, gardeners, getting people to come out and express their talents.

“And kids too… we have a lot of things in town for adults, what other things can we do to involve children and entertain them. For years people have said there’s nothing in town for kids and that’s why they go off to the big cities. If we can work something out between us all, and put that to the community board for funding,

NZ Blood Service appealing to public for more donors The New Zealand Blood Service (NZBS) is appealing to residents in Cambridge and across the Waikato to sign up as plasma donors as the region faces a potential shortage over the coming year.

The organisation will need to collect 25 per cent more plasma in the Waikato within the next 12 months to meet increased demand, requiring 340 people to become new plasma donors and for existing plasma donors to increase the frequency of their donations.

“We’re confident the eligible Waikato residents will roll up their sleeves and donate,” said Asuka Burge, NZBS National Manager Marketing and Communications.

“Plasma products are being used to treat an increasing number of life-threatening conditions,

and with demand likely to continue to rise by seven per cent annually, we simply need more plasma donors across our major donor centres.

“The average plasma donor donates around six times a year; others give on a fortnightly basis and some have done so for many years.

“We’re incredibly grateful for our committed plasma donors but we realise they can’t do it alone. We need more people to start donating plasma so we can continue to help those in need.”

Plasma is used to treat people who have lost a lot of blood from trauma and who have severe bleeding during surgery. It can also form part of a lifesaving and regular treatment plan for many New Zealanders in need like five-year-old Harry McPhail.

Girls set to star on Clarence St stage

By Sophie Iremonger

The stage show hit The Lion King Jr may be done and dusted for Cambridge Middle School, but it’s just getting started at the Clarence St Theatre this weekend.

An all-youth cast from Cambridge, Hamilton and Morrinsville will star in the production by Tumeke Performing Arts Company, including Cambridge’s very own Olivia McFetridge starring as Nala and Saoirse Herewini as Sarafina.

It’s a bizzare case of de ja vu for Saoirse, a Year 8 student at Cambridge Middle School which did The Lion King Jr for their school production earlier this month.

“It’s two different takes on the same movie,” she said. “The (school version) was good. This one is beautiful.”

Having played the piano with the school band in the CMS production, Saoirse was excited to have a more hands-on role in the show performing this weekend at the Clarence St Theatre.

For Olivia McFetridge it’s her first time playing a lead role, and an exciting opportunity at that.

“I just thought I could do it this time,” she shrugged, having played smaller roles in Annie and Aladdin at the Riverlea Theatre. “It’s been really fun to be performing from that perspective. I haven’t really had any trouble with learning the

lines.”

The Year 9 Cambridge High School student is also playing a zebra, hyena and lioness in the first act of the show, and said working with the 22-person crew had been a big highlight.

Director Travis Maclennan said the young actors working on the show had all done an exceptional job.

“The kids have done a really good job of bringing to life on stage the characters that you already know from the movie – Timone actually sounds like Timone, Pumba is just like Pumba, they’re really cleaver.”

“We really like working with kids, they’re great, they’re like sponges and offer ideas and input which is quite cool.

“They just totally come alive on stage and show you a different side of themselves, and that’s what’s really cool about this programme and working with them, they’re developing confidence.”

He described the show as a condensed version of the Broadway musical, and said they jumped at the opportunity to bring it to the Hamilton stage when it became available at the end of last year.

“We were one of the lucky ones that was able to do it.

“It’s quite a quick show but a very good one, and you get so invested in the characters because you know the characters already.”

Olivia McFetridge and Saoirse Herewini will perform in The Lion King Jr at the Clarence St Theatre this weekend.

“It’s an amazing show,” Olivia added. “We’ve been working really hard to put it together.”

Both Olivia and Saoirse hoped to see Cambridge locals turn out to the show, which is on this Friday and Saturday only, playing at 2pm and 7pm both days. Tickets are available through Ticketek or at www.clarencesttheatre.co.nz/events.

Breast cancer support group welcomes newcomers Three Cambridge women are using their breast cancer journeys to bring support and reassurance to others. Ruth Crampton, Carillon Faery and Mandy Robinson have partnered with national charity Breast Cancer Support (BCS) to set up a support group for women diagnosed with breast cancer.

The group is now meeting every Friday at 10am at Absolute Coffee House with the aim of providing peer support from a positive, personal perspective of those who

have ‘been there too.’

“It’s about raising awareness, helping women and offering peer to peer support,” said Ruth. “No two people’s journey is the same.”

The group formed after Ruth, who had not long moved to Cambridge from Rotorua, was diagnosed with breast cancer and soon noticed there weren’t any support groups in town. Her determination to “do some good” led her to like-minded Carillon, who found it difficult to connect

with others in the community after her diagnosis.

She also soon found Mandy on Facebook. A keen blogger, Mandy had written about her journey and promoted the ‘check your boobs’ message online. They met up and soon decided to form Cambridge’s first breast cancer support group.

“The group is very much in the peer to peer support space,” said Ruth. “We will be there from day one, right through a woman’s journey.”

The group has since joined the Breast Cancer Support (BCS) nation-wide network of trained volunteers which provide peer support services to women and caregivers experiencing breast cancer.

BCS Chair Marion Barnett was happy to see Cambridge added to the organisation’s support network.

“Breast Cancer Support is like no other breast cancer charity,” she said. “We offer support and care

provided by trained volunteers who have gone through the same experience. We are here to let women know they are not alone – and that is a unique gift for someone diagnosed with breast cancer.”

The BCS charity offers one to one support on 0800 273 222. To find out more about the Cambridge support group call Ruth on 022 601 1099 or visit the group’s Facebook page.

Community House CCTV to keep bridge safe thanks its volunteers

By Sophie Iremonger

The band of volunteers who help Cambridge Community House (CCH) meet its commitment to people living here were thanked at a special morning tea earlier this month.

CCH general manager Harriet Dixon said there are 14 active volunteers fulfilling various roles at the organisation, “from gardening and DIY to doing the bookkeeping and accounts”.

“Our reception desk gets really busy …

Kay Hanna and Juliet Drage volunteer at the House weekly by running the reception and helping out with admin tasks,” she said. “The availability of second-hand school uniforms is

also managed by volunteers, with the washing and mending undertaken by long-term volunteer Ann Maclure.

“CCH simply couldn’t do all the great things they do for this community without the help and support we get from our volunteers.

We provide free social services for Cambridge and the surrounding areas, counselling and financial mentoring. The role of the volunteers enables us to use the donations we receive through fundraising to provide these muchneeded services.”

The CCH board of trustees – also volunteers – provided the food for the morning tea.

Cambridge Community House volunteers (from left) Laura Bax, Ann Maclure, Kay Hanna, Carillon Faery, Sandra Muirhead, Criss Strange, Colin Ripikoi, Juliet Drage, and Susan Murray.

Photographer named best in Australasia Jason Tregurtha is no average photographer, in fact he’s one of the best in Australasia according to judges at the Open2view International Bi-Annual Conference and Awards.

The Cambridge photographer, who has been photographing with Open2view for almost 12 years, was named New Zealand’s Photographer of the Year as well as number 1 on the Australasian top 20 list at the Open2view awards event held over June 28 and 29.

Tregurtha said he was rather surprised to learn he’d won.

“I knew I was in the running for New Zealand but had no idea I was ahead of our Aussie photographers!”

He was left speechless, he said, and proud to be outperforming cities from Cambridge’s smaller, rural-type community.

Waipa District Council is installing measures which could save ratepayers tens of thousands of dollars from oversized vehicles damaging the Victoria St bridge.

The organisation announced it is installing thirteen cameras across Cambridge and Te Awamutu next month, including seven in Cambridge, which will go live in September.

One camera will be installed near the Victoria Street bridge, and will link to an electronic sign board at the north side of the bridge to notify and redirect vehicles that are too large to cross.

Council’s transportation manager Bryan Hudson said oversized vehicles crossing the bridge had been an ongoing problem in Cambridge, made worse by online maps which direct drivers that way.

“Those who are unfamiliar with the town may not be aware of the restrictions on the bridge. Electronic signs that light up and flash are far more likely to grab peoples’ attention and alert them to these restrictions,” he said. “The board will also redirect them to a more suitable route.”

It could save tens of thousands in rate payer dollars after some instances in the past have required major repairs to the bridge.

The new camera will also mean Council can monitor and gather video evidence of drivers who frequently and deliberately ignore the legally posted weight and size limit.

A workstation to monitor all 13 cameras has been set up in the Te Awamutu Police station, and will be manned during the day and on certain nights by Comm Safe and volunteers. Those wanting to access recordings that could be related to crime should report to police, not Council, said Hudson.

“The cameras will also act as a deterrent for crime and gives us a means of identifying those committing crime when it does happen,” said Hudson.

In late April Council reported that the camera system would be installed over May and June, but had to reschedule the roll out, “to give ourselves some more time to seek approval from landowners and confirm connections to power,” Hudson said.

Total cost to purchase and install the cameras, as well as the VMS board for the Victoria St bridge, was $240,000. They will be installed by Datacom Ltd, and will cover several key intersections and main roads in both towns. Monitoring traffic movement, they’ll also be used to inform future decisions around roading infrastructure.

Locations of the new cameras in Cambridge include: • Victoria Street and Hamilton Road roundabout • Victoria Street and Queen Street roundabout • Victoria Street, Alpha Street and Lake Street roundabout • Victoria Street, Duke Street and Empire Street roundabout • Victoria Street and Wilson Street intersection • Victoria Street/Bridge and Pope Terrace roundabout • Shakespeare Street and Cook Street roundabout.

A new CCTV camera and electronic signage will be installed near the Victoria Street bridge next month to help prevent oversized vehicles damaging the bridge.

Ecostore refill stations a hit More than 150 people headed to Plastic Free July events hosted by Waipā District Council in Cambridge and Te Awamutu over the weekend, refilling their used containers for free with environmentally-friendly Ecostore handwash and dishwashing liquid.

It was all part of a collaborative effort between Council and Ecostore to encourage Waipā residents to reuse their containers before recycling them and promote participation in Plastic Free July.

Council Waste Minimisation Officer Sally Fraser said it was fantastic to see so many residents keen to embrace the reduce and reuse first, before recycling.

“The three R’s message is already well known and the team was thrilled to have so many great discussions about how people are already reusing containers in multiple ways.

Being able to partner with Ecostore on such a great initiative is a way of rewarding people who are looking to reduce their single use

plastic use.”

Discount stickers for further refills of Ecostore products were also given out at the stalls. Anyone with a sticker can head to Forage in Cambridge, as well as the Bin Inn and The Storeroom in Te Awamutu, for 10 per cent off refills until 31 December 2019.

Earlier this year Council entered into a new kerbside recycling contract, providing two new wheelie bins – one for glass and one for tins, cans, paper and plastics – to residents throughout the district. They came into effect on July 1, which led many resident to repurpose their old blue recycling crates, too.

Fraser said while Waipā had an excellent recycling service, it was still important for residents to reuse their containers first before they consider recycling as this will have the greatest impact on sustainability.

For more information on waste minimisation in Waipā and what you can do, head to waipadc.govt.nz/wasteminimisation.

Waipa District Council partnered with Ecostore for the free product giveaway.

Delicate glass piece installed in sculpture park tree

An award-winning glass sculpture depicting knitting has been successfully restored and re-hung in a tree at Waitakaruru Arboretum and Sculpture Park near Tauwhare.

Called Stick to your Knitting, the sculpture was made almost a decade ago by Cambridge-based glass artist Di Tocker for Re-Fraction, a glass sculpture show hosted at Waitakaruru Sculpture Park in 2010. The work won the Waikato Sculpture Trust’s Swarbrick Dixon Award for excellence in glass sculpture.

During that show, the piece was purchased by Gilli Sutton, who installed it in her Taupo garden. Before she died several years ago, Gilli bequeathed her outdoor sculpture collection, including Stick to your Knitting, back to Waitakaruru Sculpture Park, but before it could be moved, the delicate glass work was seriously damaged in a storm.

“The tree it was hanging in suffered storm damage,

leaving the sculpture with broken needles and the rest of it a tangled mess,” Di explained. “Essentially, it had to be made again from scratch. I had managed to save some of the beads, but the rest was a complete re-do.”

After many hours of painstaking work involving the rethreading of beads onto fishing line, then knitting it into shape using broomsticks, the job was finally completed and the sculpture installed at Whatakaruru Sculpture Park late last month.

“That in itself was quite a feat,” said Di. “The guys who hung it did an amazing job.”

The idea for the original Stick to your Knitting burst into Di’s head one night after she had been asked to make something different for the 2010 Re-Fraction show. “I literally work up suddenly one night with the sculpture fully-formed in my head. I don’t normally make outdoor sculptures.”

The woke was created from 12,000 glass beads and glass rods. Not being a knitter herself, Di enlisted the aid of her mum and expert knitter, Melanie Southworth, and together

The 17.5-hectare Waitakaruru Arboretum and Sculpture Park displays more than 100 sculptures and installations along its 2km nature trail, and attracts between 9000 and 10,000 visitors a year, many of them international. Owners John and Dorothy Wakeling have been developing it since purchasing the site in 1991. The first sculpture park event was held in 2003.

Dorothy said more than 30 pieces from the late Gilli Sutton’s outdoor collection were now at the park – among them, Di Tocker’s work, Stick to your Knitting. Installing that had been a job for the experts, Dorothy said: “The arborists we brought in to do it did a wonderful job. It went very well.”

The park is at 207 Scotsman Valley Road, and visits are by appointment. Either phone 07-824 0733 or email sculpturepark1@gmail.com.

Skilled arborists did a great job installing the glass sculpture up a tree at Waitakaruru Arboretum and Sculpture Park.

they worked out how they were going to develop the idea.

“We worked on it together, creating a large-looped stitch based on stocking stitch.”

The respected judge of that initial show, Elizabeth McClure, said of the piece: “I love the spider web references, love the qualities of the glass … I love the bit of sway in the wind, love the glistening in the sun, exactly like morning dew on a web.”

Melanie was involved again for the sculpture’s restoration, helping ‘knit’ up the rows of beads using broomsticks and then sliding the finished work onto glass needles.

Following their July meeting, the Cambridge Community Board (CCB) reported it would consult with the local Muslim community around the concept of planting a memorial tree near the Cambridge Town Hall and placing a plaque in remembrance of the Christchurch mosque shootings in March of this year. Flowers that were laid outside the town hall in the week following the attack have been turned to compost which is intended to be used on the newly-planted tree.

At their recent meeting the board also passed a resolution asking council to conduct a pedestrian safety review focussed around the Cambridge town centre.

The board has also recently made 15 submissions to Waipa District Council’s Annual Plan and has received

feedback from the public.

Requests included a cycle bridge connecting the Te Awa cycleway to the southern bank of the river, further parking provisions along Taylor Street as part of a parking strategy currently being developed, the restoration of Te Ko Utu lake with the commitment of a concept plan, additional pedestrian crossings on Duke and Wilson Streets and priority given to the roundabout outside St Peter’s School which currently has a detailed design underway.

Board chair Mike Pettit said last week he hoped local residents would consider nominating themselves for the board, with nominations opening today (Friday, July 19) and closing on August 16.

The Board is essentially an intermediary between the community and council, considering and relaying

public matters, preparing annual submissions and communicating with both the community and special interest groups such as the Sister City committees, the Growth Strategy committee, Reserve and Landscape committee and the Anzac and Armistice committees.

Most meetings tend to take place in the late afternoon with the board made up of five people from the Cambridge Ward, one from the Maungatautari Ward and two appointed councillors.

Current Board chairman Mike Pettit last week said he hopes to see a positive turnout of both nominees and voters, with approximately just 30 per cent of Waipa’s eligible voters having their say during the previous local body elections.

“It would be great to smash that percentage out of the

Mike Pettit

park,” he said.

Board meetings take place on the first Wednesday of each month starting with a public forum at 6pm where members of the public can come and speak. Items for the formal agenda must be given at least 10 days before the meeting by emailing the board’s secretary Keryn.

Cambridge bridge lead Waikato area pairs

The Waikato Area Pairs are reaching an exciting stage, with the penultimate round being played at Morrinsville last weekend.

Fifty-six players from bridge clubs across the Waikato competed for bragging rights and the five A points awarded for winning. Heading into the fifth of six tournament rounds was Herman Yuan from the Cambridge Bridge Club and his partner Yuzhong Chen of the Hamilton Bridge Club.

Cambridge Tree Trust

After the two gruelling play sessions Herman and Yuhzong led with an average of 124.55 per cent, closely followed by Anna Kalma, also from the Cambridge Bridge Club, and Noel Grigg in second place with 121.8 per cent.

The rest of the competitors are close behind and many still have a chance – it’s too close to call. Everything will be resolved in the final round at Hamilton on August 4.

Testing has shown totarol to be effective against nematodes, protozoans, insect larvae and a number of bacteria including Mycobacterium tuberculosis, and possibly MRSA.

Giant tree for Christmas

Plans are underway for a giant Christmas tree in Cambridge. Spearheaded by the Cambridge Community Board, the organisation has decided to go with a real-life tree for the project.

Board member Philip Coles said last week that the board was looking at using one of the fir trees on Victoria Square, opposite the town hall.

Board members are currently securing funding to purchase decorations and storage. They hope to get the Cambridge Volunteer Firebrigade on board to put up the decorations, and want to encourage local schools, groups and residents to get involved designing and creating decorations for the tree.

“It’s community involvement, bringing kids in with their creativity and getting people involved with designing decorations,” said Coles.

To find out more or to get involved in the project email the board’s secretary Keryn.

Thompson 6th after time trial Got a News Tip?

Reuben Thompson sits sixth overall in the UCI Ain Bugey Valromey Tour in France after placing third in the individual time trial on Sunday (NZ time) and second in the 107km peloton on Monday.

Thompson, a Cambridge-based cyclist originally from Queenstown, is competing with the national under-19 men’s team in their first tour of Europe, racing in two stage races and four one-day races in France.

He placed second behind Germany’s Georg Steinhauser in the peloton, which comprised of several category-one climbs.

NZ team mate Ari Scott (Nelson) was sixth in the final stage, with teammates Xander White (Cambridge), Barnaby Clegg-Shaw (Auckland) and Drew Christensen (Palmerston North) doing the heavy lifting in support of Thompson.

“The boys have settled well in just a few days before this tour and are acquitting themselves well. They are supporting Reuben who has ridden superbly. It is a massive experience for them to ride against some of the best young riders in the world and in this hotbed of cycling,” said the New Zealand under-19 cycling coach Marc Prutton, who was delighted with the team’s efforts after arriving just a few days before the start of the Tour.

It is the first time that the national under-19 men’s team has ventured to Europe, and is the brainchild of Prutton – a well-known Christchurch cyclist, endurance sport coach and now the NZ under-19 road coach.

They are taking on the daunting challenge of a European campaign, competing in two stage races and three one-day races.

“The pinnacle of road cycling is in Europe and this tour has already proven to be a fantastic experience for them travelling and living in a foreign cycling environment and experiencing racing against some incredibly strong competition,” Prutton said.

“They have come together really well in a short time and working so hard for each other.”

The team will now contest four one-day races in France before completing the three-week campaign with the twostage Tour of Trambouze.

Whitaker among those who have featured at every event this season, it gives them a distinct advantage in terms of the championship.

Reardon is favoured to take the main title when it all wraps up on Saturday afternoon, the 21-year-old currently enjoying a massive 23-point advantage over nearest challenger Taylor.

“The two courses this weekend will feature forestry and farm tracks, creek beds, swamp, old logging tram roads, stock and deer trails and should be both challenging and enjoyable for the riders,” said Motorcycling New Zealand enduro commissioner Justin Stevenson.

“The venue will have a bit of everything and there is lots of shingle on the course, so it probably won’t matter too much if it’s wet. There’s plenty of clay and mud too, so riders should not expect a nice, dry track.

“Friday will be a normal format enduro, but Saturday will be a sprint format, with longer terrain tests.”

All rounds count for the “overall” series winner, but only six of the seven rounds are to be counted for the various class titles.

Final throw of the dice for Enduro riders It is the final big gamble for enduro title hopefuls this weekend and the riders will even get two throws of the dice.

Likely winners revealed themselves after the fifth of seven rounds in this season’s Yamaha and Mitas Tyres-sponsored New Zealand Enduro Championships near Masterton last month, but it all now comes down to what happens at this weekend’s double-header, the final two rounds near Hokitika.

There is actually only a small element of luck involved in this sport, with rider skill and bike reliability the key factors in this most demanding of dirt bike codes, although inclement weather and diabolical terrain could certainly influence the outcome.

Racing is Friday and Saturday and the start location for both days is at Seaview Hall, Seaview. The main checkpoints and terrain test starts and finishes are at Kawhaka Station, 1616 Old Christchurch Road, and leading championship contenders such as Cambridge’s Beau Taylor, Whanganui’s Seth Reardon, Rotorua’s Bradley Lauder and Wainuiomata’s Jake Whitaker will each be hoping for a solid finish to the series.

There have been different winners at each of the five rounds thus far, but not all of these riders have contested every round and so, with Reardon, Taylor, Lauder and

A monthly gardening column, courtesy of Amber Garden Centre As the cool Winter makes itself felt in the garden, daffodils are popping up their heads – signs that spring is just around the corner.

Vegetables Prepare the garden by applying a dressing of lime to the soil and dig in green manure crops of mustard and lupin. Give them time to break down before planting begins. In late July, plant new crops of leafy vegetables – lettuce, cabbage, silverbeet, broccoli, spinach and kale.

Rotate plants – avoid growing the same plants in the same place.

Plants like peas and beans put nutrients into the soil, which will benefit leafy crops.

Potatoes Potatoes can be purchased and set out in trays to sprout in a light airy shed.

Try some early potatoes in a large bucket or pot on a sheltered sunny deck or glasshouse away from frost.

Tree pruning Pruning should be completed this month and followed up with liquid copper spray to control fungal disease. Conqueror Oil is used to get rid of any insects and eggs – this is a bio-certified organic spray.

Roses Prune roses at the end of July. Spray with copper to help seal cuts and combat infection. Apply sheep pellets and rose fertiliser and look forward to their first flowers.

Spring bulbs Fertilise as they flower to help with next season’s flower development.

Perennials Lift and divide old perennial clumps, replanting the outer young growth and discarding the old centre growth.

Ornamental trees Now is the time to plant new ornamental trees for shade or flower.

Cherries, Maples, Liquidambar, Cornus and Magnolia are all available at your local garden centre now.

Undefeated Hautapu into grand final It all comes down to this Saturday, when Hautapu’s Senior A team takes on Fraser Tech in the final round of the rugby season at Hamilton’s FMG stadium, 5pm kick off.

Their victory will mean the Hautapu team has remained undefeated in the Waikato Draught Premiership A competition. But first they’ll have to beat Fraser Tech, which beat Otorohanga quite comfortably in their semi-final on Saturday, 27 – 10.

But the Hautapu team made an emphatic victory of their own on Saturday, defeating Hamilton Marist 45 – 10 in their semi-final at Cambridge’s Memorial Park.

Marist had strengthened their

forward pack too, bringing in Samoan/Bristol number 8 Jack Lam, Chiefs middle rower James Tucker, and the evergreen former All Black Marty Holah (off the bench).

But the Hautapu players looked relaxed and confident as always, maintaining the attitude they’ve carried all season.

With constant pressure and domination of possession and territory, Hautapu were 13-3 after a try, conversion and two penalties by first-five Coby Milne.

After 30 minutes and a quick penalty tap, centre Brandon Mudzekenyedzi scored under the posts to lead 20-3.

Luke Jacobson, the first Cambridge born and bred player selected for an All Black squad in 17 years, is “super hungry” to earn his first test cap.

“It’s been a dream of mine since I was a little kid and it’s starting to come true being included in the squad, but now the next step’s to actually get out there and wear the black jersey,” he said.

“I’m just trying to put my best foot forward at training at the moment, trying to learn all the things and then hopefully get selected to run out there with all the boys, I think that’s when it will really set in.”

Luke returned from his first All Black training camp to play for Hautapu in the final round robin match of the Waikato club rugby competition.

“I’ve been lucky enough to come back and play these last three games for Hautapu which is awesome because this has been my club since high school,” said the 22-year-old, who has been away with the Chiefs most of this season.

“My old man played here and my brothers. It’s a great culture here, there’s awesome management and players and we all just love hanging around each other and playing footy together.”

the chase, Hautapu scoring four more counterattack tries by Kurt Heatherley, Kaea Hongara, Brandon Mudzekenyedzi and Paula Mahe.

Hautapu pushed out to a 45 – 3 lead before Marist made a late consolation try on the full time whistle, settling the score at 45 – 10.

It extended Hautapu’s winning run to 17 games for the season, with credit to halfback Jack Stratton and first-five Coby Milne for controlling

His tertiary studies at Wintec were cut short when he won a Chiefs contract and he made his Super rugby debut in 2018, playing 13 matches and going on to captain Waikato in last year’s Mitre 10 Cup. “He is a very physical defender, a good ball-carrier and not just as a carrier-passer, he’s got the ability to beat people, has the ability to offload in contact and can play multiple positions,” All Blacks head coach Steven Hansen said.

Luke said he was surprised when his name was read out in the All Blacks squad for the first two matches of the Investec Rugby Championships against Argentina and South Africa.

Able to play blind-side flanker, number eight and open-side flanker, he was one of eight loose forwards named in the 39-strong squad alongside Sam Cane, Vaea Fifita, Shannon Frizell, Dalton Papalii, Kieran Read, Ardie Savea and Matt Todd.

Luke’s father Chris, who played for King Country, believes his son’s versatility and attitude will be assets as he guns for his first All Blacks cap. “Every time he plays up a level he seems to step up another level and that’s one of his good attributes,” he said. “He knows how to step up for the occasion.”

Leamington on top as season draws to close

Leamington sits in third place on the table as it prepares for the semi-final round of its club rugby competition in Matamata tomorrow. The Senior A team looks poised for success after winning 29 – 8 against Eastern Suburbs at Flagstaff on Saturday.

Regan Eruiti was quick to score a try within the first 15 minutes, which he soon converted.

The Suburbs managed a penalty later in the half but Leamington maintained the lead 7 – 3 at half time. The second half opened up a bit more and Leamington took control with tries

by Josh Evans, Drew Bootten and a double for Daniel Thornton.

Suburbs forced a try late in the game but failed to make any serious gains on their competitors. Final score was 29 – 8. Te Mana Shortland was named player of the day after stepping up to first five, covering for an injury

to Jackson Neels.

The Leamington B team found themselves under the pump in their game against Suburbs on Saturday, with the competition trying their best to keep their semi final hopes alive, and failing.

Leamington won the game 27-22, but they were down 17 – 7 at half time with only a try by Piri Bennett and conversion by Andrew Brown. The team stepped up their tempo in the second half with tries by Sean Bolton, Paddy Cameron, James Dunn and a spectacular 80m dash to the try line by prop Craig Bolton to secure the win 27 – 22. Player of the day was Norm Takewae.

Both the A and B teams are now lined up for semi-finals in Matamata tomorrow.

The Leamington under 21 Regal Agriculture Colts team finished their last

round of the season with a thrilling battle against Hamilton Marist. The scores were tied at 24 all as the game drew to a close, but a penalty was awarded to Leamington for the last play of the game, with Robert Day slotting the kick from over 40m to win 27-24.

Try scorers were Caleb Sheehan, Connor Muir and Jarred Davey, and Brett Pyke Brett slotted two conversions.

The club’s under 85 players hosted their final game of the season on Saturday against the Varsity Stags. Leamington crossed the line first with second-five Nick Bolger opening the scoring. The Stags kept smashing away at the Leamington defence with the ball in hand before finally breaking through. But Nick Bolger managed to score his second try just before half time to secure the lead 12-7.

Having made several changes at the break, Leamington asserted their dominance with

four new forwards on the field. The backs displayed quick hands which put winger Jamie Campbell at the outside of his man on the 22. Campbell sped past three defenders to secure his third try of the season.

The Stags came back with a quick try of their own off the scrum. Leamington then emptied their bench with new locks Ethan Simpson and Shane Mitchell on the field making good distance and tackles all over the park.

Simpson crashed his way under the posts and Mitchell followed suit five minutes later to reward the effort. The Stags came back once again with an impressive try by their fullback within the final 10 minutes, but Leamington followed with a brilliant forward play by number 8 Lewis Meerkerk to set up Reid McBeth for the final try of the season.

Final score Leamington 38, Stags 17.

All Blacks legend Wayne “Buck” Shelford and his wife Jo will compete against Cambridge locals in a special fundraising golf tournament next weekend. The Pink and Blue Fundraiser at the Cambridge Golf Club on Sunday, July 28 will see four-person teams take part in an 18-hole ambrose golf tournament, raising funds for both the Breast Cancer and the Prostate Cancer foundations.

“I just want to put some fun into golf and spread the word that screening saves lives,” said organiser Sian Stevenson. “For me it’s personal, I want to give back and also raise awareness by speaking about screening and early detection, it saves life.”

Local businesses are supporting the event with auction items including tourist and accommodation getaways, a signed 2019 Chiefs jersey, an autographed book by

Michael Campbell, a cycling shirt signed by Eddie Dawkins and a number of autographed golf items from Ryan Fox. “We’re hoping to have a ‘challenge’ hole this year and will have archery out on the course, thanks to Archery Wars. It’s a good excuse for the men to dress up in Pink, optional of course. Anybody can enter – it’s a fun event.”

Participants are encouraged to dress in pink or blue on the day. Teams of four can enter, or individuals can enter to be put in a team. Entry is $50 per person. Sausage sizzles and a platter of food will be available for each team, and raffles and auctions, and possibly a Q&A session with Shelford, will be held inside the clubrooms afterwards. To find out more phone the Cambridge Golf Club on 07 827 6381.

Reds falter in race for football title

By Josh Easby

Cambridge travel to Auckland this weekend badly in need of a win to stay in touch with the leading bunch of titlechasers in football’s Northern League second division.The Reds will play on the artificial turf of Bill McKinlay Stadium against UniMount Bohemian Celtic, derived from one of the country’s most successful clubs, former national champions Mt Wellington.

Fourth-placed Cambridge need to find winning form after picking up only one competition point from their last three matches in the Lotto NRFL. The team were beaten 5-4 last weekend in an upset against old time rivals Ngongotaha who had lost their previous 15 fixtures. Games between

Cambridge reserves’ Dehein Hindley fires a shot through a crowded Ngongotaha defence.

the two WaiBOP rivals have always been competitive affairs – regardless of form going into them – and this derby was no different.

Cambridge went into the match missing forward Josh Clarkin (glandular fever) and Jack Portegys (ankle injury) but welcomed back midfielder Marcelo Sosa from suspension.

Ngongotaha got off to a flying start with Nathan Monne finding the net after six minutes. Fabian Munoz levelled for Cambridge five minutes later after clever work by Levi Clark. The visitors regained their lead straight from the kick off through captain Luke Barker. Cook Islands international Harlen Simiona extended Ngongotaha’s lead in the 33rd minute.

As the half drew to a close, Luke Stephenson continued his goalscoring run, tapping home a Clark cross to make it 3-2.

Again, Ngongotaha managed to score immediately after the restart, with Simiona grabbing his second.

Cambridge had the better of the second half in terms of possession and chances but Ngongotaha goalkeeper Andrew Gibbs made a couple of important stops and frustration started to set in for the Reds.

Stephenson scored his second goal on the hour to make it 4-3 to the visitors, and Cambridge threw players forward.

A critical play came three minutes from the end when referee Cameron DicksonHards ruled that Kieran Hills had brought down an attacker. Barker scored from the spot to make it 5-3.

Cambridge kept fighting and three minutes into added time, Sosa reduced the deficit but by then, the game was lost.

The result leaves Cambridge six points

Cambridge’s Jordy Silvester drives hard down the wing against Claudelands Rovers.

adrift of Claudelands Rovers in third, and eight points behind dual leaders Metro and Manurewa.

For Ngongotaha, the win gave the side their first win – in fact, their first competition point – of a difficult season at the foot of the second division table.

In the early game, goals in the first half were enough to get Cambridge’s reserves team all three competition points in their 2-0 win against Ngongotaha’s second string side.

Riley Higgs, playing high up the pitch, scored Cambridge’s opening goal on the half hour at John Kerkhof Park. As the clock ran down for half-time, Cambridge doubled their lead with a scrambled affair that was finally credited as an own goal by Ngongotaha’s Kerrigan Waller.

In the second spell, both teams had opportunities but Cambridge sensibly controlled play and possession to make sure of a deserved win.

Cambridge’s WaiBOP Championship side lost 6-3 at home to high-flying Claudelands Rovers, despite taking a 3-0 lead in the first half. Skipper Adam Brady opened the scoring while Jordy Silvester and Kurt von Keisenberg found the net in quick succession. But Rovers fought back to reduce the half-time deficit to 3-2.

The Hamilton side then took charge in the second half scoring four goals without return. The loss ended a five-match unbeaten run for Cambridge in the WaiBOP Championship.

In Waikato Division 3, Cambridge D1s lost 2-1 at Otorohanga after the teams were tied 1-1 at the break. Goalscorer for Cambridge was Miguel Peterle with his ninth goal of the season.

In Waikato Division 4, Cambridge D2s lost a scrappy game at Eastern City by a single goal. The game was locked up 0-0 until the second half when the Hamilton side found a winner.

It’s a sweet life

A love of bees has been a lifelong passion for Tim and Julie Hansen. Before opening their honey shop in Pirongia two years ago, the couple sold bulk drums of honey for 15 years.

The shop fills a niche market by supplying locals with an affordable pot of honey.

The couple work in complement, with Tim, a qualified bee-keeper, producing the honey and Julie describing her role as “doing everything else.” The Hansen name is synonymous with bees and has a long beekeeping history dating back to the 1860s when Tim’s great grandfather Johan Hansen emigrated from Denmark. From the early 1900s to 2012, Tim’s grandfather and father ran a beekeeping business in Orini.

Fast forward to present day Karamu where Tim and Julie run their Hansen Honey business in the foothills of Mt Pirongia. Their honey has true local flavour and each batch is different.

“We don’t blend our honey,” says Julie. “We use it as the bees give it to us. Our Mt Pirongia honey is a blend made by the bees themselves.

Having hives in various locations is not only good management practice, but it means the Hansens can offer different flavours depending on where their honey bees have buzzed. Valley flowers, Waikato farm flowers and bush clover ensure constant variety. Honey collected from the foothills of Mt Pirongia is likely to contain nectar from lowland pasture species such as clover, dandelion and blackberry, as well as forest species including rewarewa, kamahi and mahoe. Wild Coast kanuka honey is collected from remote locations on the West Coast.

The shop is open five a days a week, supplying Mt Pirongia Blend to the local market.

Other brands are also sold to provide customers with a variety of choice.

Over the years the Hansens have seen many changes in the industry. While bees have come under threat from disease, pesticides and intensification of land use, one thing hasn’t changed and that is Tim’s careful bee husbandry and protection. “He is very very conscious of bees’ requirements,” explains Julie.

Back of Mt Pirongia, owner Tim Hanson, Hanson’s Honey.

Funding available for ecological initiatives

Applications are now open to volunteer community based groups or individual landowners seeking funding for ecological initiatives. The Small Scale Community Initiatives Fund (SSCIF) supports groups and landowners undertaking restoration through animal and plant pest control. Up to $5,000 can be applied for per group or individual.

Applications are assessed by a panel skilled in the area of pest control and ecological restoration.

Grants are determined on how well they meet the funding criteria. These include environmental enhancement, project plans, viability, and

community participation and awareness.

The initiatives must directly promote, enhance or protect the Waikato region’s environment, with specific reference to ecological and/or biodiversity outcomes, says Andrew Thomas, Waikato Regional Council’s biodiversity officer.

Project plans must be well-developed and have measurable outcomes, a detailed budget and a map of the project location. The likelihood of the project’s success must be clearly shown and the goals shown to be economically achievable.

Projects ideally should involve neighbouring

land owners and/or the wider community in an effort to increase public awareness of biodiversity issues.

Funding covers the purchase of materials, such as traps, bait, bait stations or herbicide used

in pest animal or pest plant control, as well as professional contracted services up to $1,000.

Applications close at 5.00pm on Friday 26 July.

Application forms are on the Waikato Regional Council website: www.waikatoregion.govt.nz

Fieldays wrap

Over 180 volunteers, along with staff, sponsors, partners and 1067 exhibitors, contributed to the success of this year’s Fieldays, which showcased 1559 sites. The Fieldays Health and Wellbeing hub attracted some 25,000 people keen on having conversations around all aspects of physical, mental, emotional, spiritual, and social health and well-being.

Northland boy Lewis Nichols won the title of 2019 Fieldays Rural Catch impressing judges and sponsors with his skills in several of the challenges.

While he walked away with over $20,000 in prizes, his most

valued experience was the connections he made with the other contestants throughout the competition.

Over 860 senior students from 41 schools completed the programme within the careers and education hub. They were introduced to a plethora of careers on offer in the country’s thriving primary industry.

The Fieldays International Business Centre was also a hive of activity throughout the event. Almost 400 visitors from 31 countries registered their attendance. The conversations, connections and meetings that took place helped boost New

Zealand’s primary industry’s output and reputation both nationally and across the globe.

Fifty-four innovations were introduced into the market or developed further as part of the Fieldays Innovation Awards.

Some creative ideas focussed on strengthening the future of our primary industry. Winners included a platform that finds a solution to finding seasonal workers, a packing and delivery system for intramammary treatments and sealants, a fencepost made from 100 per cent recycled plastics and a water flow indicator.

Organic and visionary Century Farm awards

Ellen and Jesiah Alexander’s basic philosophy is to work with nature rather than against it.

The couple, who supply raw milk and organic products from their innovative store in Flume Road, Te Miro, believe health starts with the soil. “If we have a healthy, diverse and living soil, then our pasture will be the same. Our animals will also follow, and our own health too,” says Waikato boy Jesiah, who grew up in a farming family.

Ellen hails from Warkworth but spent her weekends on her grandfather’s Cambridge farm.

Both worked on her grandfather’s conventional Cambridge farm for several years before starting Alexander Organics. They had had no previous experience in organic farming and are in a continually learning process. “I think our experience with organics really started with the food we ate at home,” says Ellen. “Once we learned about some of the conventional practices around food we were putting into our bodies, it made us look at the way conventional dairy farms treat animals and how that ends up in our food system.”

The couple love the outdoor aspect of farming.

They have planted “heaps of trees” since settling on their farm three years ago, and plan to plant more each year for the foreseeable future. Trees serve multiple use on the farm, providing animal shelter, fodder and firewood.

Animal diversity is another focus. Chickens, ducks and cows yield products that can be sold in store.

Diversity extends to plants, as well. Rather than the normal ryegrass and clover mix, the Alexanders have intentionally planted countless herbs and grasses. “Each plant species has different length root systems which bring up different minerals for the soil biology and animals to benefit from,” explains Jesiah. Alexander Organics relies largely on word-of-mouth.

Customers love what they do. They appreciate the lengths the couple goes to in supplying them with raw milk and enjoy the health benefits derived from it. “It’s so encouraging for us

knowing that we aren’t just selling a product but are actually making a difference to people’s lives.”

There is also a big environmental win. To date, the business has saved well over 15,000 two-litre plastic milk bottles from being in the plastic waste system.

for Hannon family

The Hannons are synonymous with farming. The family’s original Tinopai farm on the outskirts of Cambridge was a Crown grant to Patrick Hannon in 1867. The next two generations were born on the property, which is now in the sixth generation of Hannon ownership. In 1912 a large holding of semi-hilly country at Te Miro was purchased and is used in conjunction with the Tinopai farm.

This picturesque block, with native bush, natural springs and spectacular views to Te Aroha and the Hauraki Plains, is home to Marcel and Sandra Hannon and their children Jared (13) and Sarah (11). Marcel is a plant operator for Fonterra in Morrinsville and Sandra manages the approximate 360ha farm, which comprises mainly Angus stock, sheep and dairy grazers. The couple are working hard to make it a more profitable enterprise.

“There’s plenty to do,” says Sandra, who is helped by jack-of-all-trades Marcel on his days off.

They live off-grid in a modern home that relies

PROFESSIONAL FARM SERVICES SERVICING THE WAIKATO FOR OVER 30 YEARS

Owl Farm enjoys good weather Sunny weather and fewer frosts than normal in early winter has resulted in good grass growth allowing for a lot less supplement to be required over winter so far for Owl Farms 420 head herd.

The Joint venture demonstration farm between founding partners STP and Lincoln University is managed by Tom Buckley.

Buckley says offering high fibre and bulky diet to the dry cows during calving in the form of summer made silage and hay has resulted in the cows being far more content and “it also keeps them warm and helps us to avoid cases of udder oedema especially in the heifers”.

largely on energy generated by wind turbines and the sun. In recognition of their longevity in farm ownership, Marcel and Sandra, as well as Marcel’s parents, Richard and Carol Hannon, were respectively awarded a 100 year and a 150 year Century Farm plaque. Century Farm awards celebrate generations on the land and recognise the early pioneers who cultivate and transformed the country’s untamed wild land into the rich agricultural industry that exists today.

Marcel says the land holds emotional ties. “We have significant ties to it and many sacrifices have been made to keep it in family ownership. It’s becoming increasingly hard to retain land close to Cambridge due to residential and commercial growth.”

Although their children love the land, it’s too early in their young lives to make major decisions on succession. The focus for now is on their education. Only time will tell.

With 1/3 of the herd already calved in the first 10 days of calving Owl Farm has already begun supplying milk. A great result from last year’s mating period. Replacement heifers are coming in at a good rate also which is great to see Buckley says.

The environmentally conscious Cambridge demonstration dairy farm is showing that emissions reduction and profitability are not mutually exclusive. A reduction in imported feed levels and a lowered stocking rate has reduced emissions. Nutrients leaching into waterways has also been reduced yet profitability is up.

Clearing the air on greenhouse gas emissions

Every sector of society needs to lift its game on cutting greenhouse gas emissions. New data from Statistics New Zealand makes it clear that there is joint responsibility. The country’s unusual emissions profile worldwide is due to the nation’s reliance on primary industries to earn a living globally. However, carbon dioxide from burning fossil fuels, not methane from animals, is the real climate change culprit, says Federated Farmers climate change spokesperson Andrew Hoggard. “Instead of expecting farmers to do all the heavy lifting, it’s time for every New Zealander to look at their lifestyles and choices, particularly in terms of transport.”

Stats NZ’s Environmental-economic accounts show that emissions from households, mainly from their transport use decisions, jumped 19.3 per cent in the decade to 2017, outstripping both growth in the population and emissions by industry.

The nation’s total emissions decreased by 0.9 per cent between 2007 and 2017, with greenhouse gases emitted by agriculture dropping at a rate of 0.1 per cent each year. These small reductions came during a decade when agriculture’s contribution to GDP grew at a rate of 1.8 per cent, indicating increased production efficiency.

Waitomo Farm Tours on top

Waitomo District is famed for its underground wonders but Allan Barclay has taken things above ground with his farm tours business. Based in Otorohanga, Waitomo Farm Tours was specifically developed to showcase the uniqueness of the land, provide opportunities to journey cross country into its interiors, give insight into the district’s heritage and introduce people to the operations of a working dairy farm.

Barclay is passionate about sharing the district’s wonders with the public. His family have farmed in the region for 90 years and still live in Pio Pio and Aria. “I’ve spent all my life outdoors,” says Barclay, whose career centred around marketing and servicing tractors. He is

hugely familiar with the area and has a deep admiration for it. Tour guide Fred Stott, whose family also has a proud local history, shares similar sentiments.

Waitomo Farm Tours uses specially designed Viking all-terrain vehicles to negotiate the spectacular high country contours.

The innovative seat layout allows five passengers and guide to comfortably enjoy the exciting ride. More conventional vans or buses are used for road travel.

Modern day sheep and beef farms, dairy farms, country gardens, a museum, and pioneer sawmilling with a village attached, are on the Waitomo Farm Tours menu. Educational farm tours for school groups of 5-10 students are also proving a hit. Farms visited are huge land holdings. The museum gives a snapshot into farming through the ages and houses, among many special items, the country’s first school bus.

Thanks to Barclay and his team, Waitomo’s underground treasures are now being complemented by back country beauty.

Cambridge Stud has acquired the southern breeding rights to world champion three year old Roaring Lion. The champion had an outstanding year in 2018 winning four Group 1 races, displaying great courage and tenacity to beat the best in Europe. The wins are all the more remarkable given that all were weight for age races against older horses, an elite achievement that earned him a Timeform rating of 130.

Chairman of Qatar Racing, Sheikh Fahad Al-Thani, and his brothers enjoyed their greatest days on the racecourse courtesy of Roaring Lion. “To own a horse like him is truly incredible and we believe he will prove a magnificent influence as a sire in both hemispheres.” The family expressed its delight in the support breeders have shown in Europe. “I feel confident Roaring Lion will be as popular in the Southern Hemisphere and look forward to seeing his first progeny both here and around the world.”

Add value to your home with a well cared for, great lawn!

Now you can enjoy a perfect lawn for less cost than you can do it yourself!

YOUNG AT HEART

FRIDAY JULY 19, 2019

Young at Heart

Social support for the elderly Old age comes with an increased risk of isolation. The emotional affect this has on the elderly can also impact on their physical and mental health.

Cambridge Resthaven and Age Concern are working collaboratively to address isolation in the Cambridge community.

General manager of Cambridge Resthaven, Rachel Jones, says isolation is on the rise in Cambridge. “Loneliness

is certainly an issue for the elderly.”

Social relationships are consistently associated with biomarkers of health.

Teaming up with Age Concern allows both organisations to share resources and join forces in providing a valuable service within the local community.

The initiative calls on volunteers to offer an hour of their time each week to visit an older person in their home.

A cheerful disposition and a willingness to have a chat and a cup of tea are the essential requirements. Volunteers must be over 18 years and have their own transport.

Information packs are provided and a

vetting process is a prerequisite.

Those interested in becoming a visiting volunteered can ring co-ordinator Lorraine Hargreaves at Cambridge Resthaven, phone 07 827 6097.

Balance healthy eating with physical activity. The two go hand in hand and help you to be a healthy older person.

It’s also important to maintain a healthy weight, and improve your balance and strength as this may lessen your chance of injury from slips and falls.

If you’re not used to physical activity, ease into it gradually. Start with a few minutes of activity, such as walking and gradually increase this over time.

Aim to be physically active at least 30 minutes every day. To make this more manageable, you can break it into three 10-minutes sessions.

Include strength exercises in your programme.

There is significant evidence to support the use of physical activity and exercise interventions in older adults as a means to reduce the risk of chronic disease, increase life expectancy, improve measures of physical health that combat

the effects of ageing and preserve functional capacity, which essentially is the ability to perform activities of daily living, such as cooking and cleaning.

The Waikato Strong & Stable programme is part of the nationwide Live Stronger for Longer initiative, which offers practical information and advice for older people and their supporters on how to minimise falls while living an active, independent life.

Any older adult can attend sessions.

No booking is required and numerous classes are held throughout the Waikato, including Cambridge and Te Awamutu.

Classes range between $2-$5 and are facilitated by trained leaders.

Doctors, nurses, pharmacists or other health professionals can refer seniors to the programme. Class information is posted on www.waikatodhb.health.nz/ your-health/wellbeing-in-the-waikato/ strength-and-balance-for-65-plus.

Keep moving

THERE’S SOMETHING VERY SPECIAL ABOUT CAMBRIDGE RESTHAVEN A community that has it all - a retirement village, resthome, continuing care and dementia care.

As Cambridge has grown, Cambridge Resthaven has grown too, putting resources every day back into the local community through... Meals on Wheels, Craft days, the Menzshed, Freedom Wheelers, Showtime Travel Connect and a home visiting service for the elderly.

Bupa St Kilda Retirement Village has 99 stylish yet warm villas, a community centre, wellness clinic, library and residents’ workshop that offer a superb balance of independence and social connection. Both elements play a significant role in overall health as people age. Maintaining independence while socialising and spending time with friends boosts quality of life and wellbeing.

The easy-care, double glazed villas, together with the secure village environment, are ideal for a lock-up and leave lifestyle. Residents can have peace of mind living, can come and go as they please, travel abroad and spend time away with family. Alternatively, there is

YOUNG AT HEART

plenty to keep them entertained and active within the retirement village itself.

Bupa St Kilda Retirement Village manager, Chris Thomas, says everyone appreciates the community atmosphere but says a resident can get involved as much or as little as they want.

“There is an active social calendar of activities but residents may choose to enjoy our spectacular community garden instead.”

The village is co-located with a care home next door which can provide the opportunity of a continuum of care for residents if needed.

Lindsay and Ash Oldershaw have lived at Bupa St Kilda Retirement Village since it opened. They were looking for a place

that enabled them to live close to family, yet still have their own independence.

“The environment is spacious and there is a great sense of community. I enjoy getting out in the garden and am also involved in volunteer work. There’s plenty

to do in the village and you can choose what suits. Residents are very generous with sharing their talents, and we have such a lot of talent here. You couldn’t get a better management team. It’s a very happy environment,” says Lindsay.

Pre-plan and pre-pay The best time to plan your funeral is before the event itself. Jim Goddin of Grinter’s Funeral Home is a big pre-planning advocate.

His advice is drawn from many years in the industry and seeing the advantages of planning ahead. “Major events like weddings and family holidays are usually carefully planned and not left to the last minute.

A funeral should be regarded in a similar light. It is the ultimate celebration of a loved one’s life.”

A funeral incurs a lot of decision making.

Making plans at the time of death can be fraught with emotion and the pain of grief.

Jim Goddin says loved ones can struggle to make decisions in a short timeframe. Family unity is also more likely to

maintained when funeral wishes are clearly laid out. “Having your affairs in order is a thoughtful and caring thing to do for your family. It eases the pressure on them at a stressful and emotional time, and ensures your personal wishes are fulfilled.”

Finances are another good reason for preplanning. An organised and pre-paid funeral can be an enormous relief for a family. It frees them from financial concern and any burden caused by having to pay at the time of the funeral. Two products in the market around funeral planning and payment include pre-paid funeral trusts and funeral insurance plans. Both need careful consideration. The staff at Grinter’s Funeral Home can guide people through these options

and all aspects of prearrangement.

Jim Goddin says Kiwis aren’t great at putting money away for a rainy day. He encourages a refocus on one of the most important things of life, a funeral. “Planning for a funeral is not often considered, yet it is an event we all face.”

Jim Goddin­, Funeral Director, Grinter’s Funeral Home

Have the talk of a lifetime Start the conversation and pre-plan for your funeral The death of someone close can bring great sadness, emotional turmoil and stress. Grieving families have a lot to deal with and organise, as well as many decisions to make.

Increasingly, people are planning their own funerals, mainly to lessen the responsibilities for the family at such a difficult time.

Pre-planning also makes your funeral preferences clear, including: • Your choice of funeral director • Your church affiliation • Your wishes as to burial or cremation and, in the case of the latter, the placement of your ashes • Your music choice, chosen hymns, reading, poems • The venue for your funeral service

• Details of a cemetery plot -already owned, or to be purchased • Details of organisations, professional societies, clubs, etc. which must be specifically notified of the funeral details.

• Specific wishes important to you.

Once you’ve made pre-arrangements, keep a copy of the plan and any pertinent paperwork in a safe place.

Also, inform a close friend or relative what arrangements have been made and where the information may be found.

If you’d like a copy of our Pre-Arrangement Form, get in touch on 07 827 6037 and we can make a time to go through everything with you (either at your place or ours).

Payments and grants to boost winter comfort

Executive office of Age Concern Hamilton, Brent Nielsen, says winter is a vulnerable time for the elderly.

“People in New Zealand die of the cold and old-related illnesses yet this can be prevented.” Cold and damp homes are linked to poor health.

Unheated, ill-ventilated houses are especially detrimental to the young, the sick and the old. Seniors with cardiovascular conditions may experience increased side effects in the cold. As lower temperatures and winds can reduce body heat, blood vessels tend to constrict, making it more difficult for oxygen to reach the entire body.

Yet limited finances often deter the elderly from using or turning up heat sources in winter when more energy is needed to warm up their homes and keep the cold away. Using more energy obviously impacts on power bills.

“The government’s winter energy payments are designed to help towards the cost of heating homes,” says Nielsen. Recipients of NZ Superannuation and Veteran’s Pension are eligible for support to the tune of $20.46 a week for a single person, or $31.82 a week for a couple. These non-taxable payments do not affect any other government payments, or income related rent.

The Winter Energy Payment is paid from 1 May to 1 October and is not available in a lump sum.

More information is available on the Work and Income website.

The EECA is also offering help via its Warmer Kiwi Homes grants. The grants

are earmarked for heaters and home insulation to make homes warmer, drier and healthier. The government’s fouryear programme covers two-thirds of the cost of an efficient wood burner, pellet burner or heat pump, as well as ceiling and underfloor insulation.

Grants are capped at $2,500.

Ceiling and underfloor insulation installed to EECA standard is a prerequisite to eligibility for a grant for a heater. This is due to the fact that insulation is the most important feature for a warm and healthy home.

To qualify for a grant you must own the home you live in, have a Community Services Card or live in an area identified as lower-income. Your home must have been built before 2008.

Unfortunately, it’s the elderly who are the most frequent targets of fraud scams. Fraudsters are adept at preying on them and especially target those who are lonely and/or willing to listen. “Seniors people are generally more trusting than younger people too,” says executive officer of Age Concern Hamilton, Brent Nielsen, “and susceptible to phone frauds.”

Scam perpetrators use different tactics to get the elderly to fall victim to their schemes. They can be friendly, sympathetic and willing to help in some cases, or use fear tactics in others.

In effort to reduce the problem,

employment situation that has a specific cease time, you don’t have to stop work. In fact, Kiwis may well be encouraged to keep on working. Given New Zealand’s ageing workforce and the decline in the number of young workers entering the labour market,

businesses face a looming skills shortage as baby boomers get set to retire.

There are growing calls for New Zealand to restructure the pension to cope with its greying population.

Experts predict that the baby boomers will double the over-65 population

during the next decade or so, from 600,000 in 2013 to 1.2 million. By 2065, the number of over-65s is projected to rise to 1.7 million.

What is deemed elderly has changed over generations.

Science has advanced, diseases that used to kill have dramatically decreased and lifestyles are changing.

As a result, people are living longer.

And longer lifespans raise the big question of how those extra years will be funded.

The current climate sees a growing number of pensioners struggling to live on NZ Super alone.

Hardship grants paid to over-65s have more than doubled in five years, a trend that is expected to worsen as more retirees leave work without owning their own home and need to pay rent from a pension not intended to cover it.

Meanwhile New Zealand’s mature employment rates are high, and rising. People are working longer either out of choice, necessity or fear.

Whatever the reason, older New Zealanders will be needed to fill jobs in areas of skill shortage.

demand for elderly housing

Two decades ago, more than 80 per cent of people aged 65-89 owned a home.

By 2013, that had dropped to 60 per cent, reports the Ageing Well National Science Challenge.

Investigators warn of a looming crisis in elderly housing. It is predicted that, under current policy, in 20 years’ time more than half of those over 65 will be renting.

The drop in mortgage-free home ownership augurs a very different future for many retirees in renting situations.

Living on a reduced and fixed income means they will be vulnerable to rent increases, tenancies being terminated, and landlord efficiency and cooperation.

Pensioners with mobility issues are often dependent on landlords for even the smallest maintenance and repair work.

Faced with an uncertain future enhances feelings of insecurity and can easily lead to health issues.

Experts at Ageing Well National Science Challenge say superannuation at current levels won’t be enough.

“It’s designed to give older people a good standard of living, but it assumes they’re not going to be paying mortgages and not going to be paying rent.”

Waipa District Council currently owns 130 pensioner housing units. The units are offered to retired persons over the age of 65 who comply with the council’s criteria for subsidised rent.

Eat well to stay well We all need to eat well at any stage of life, particularly as we age. Good nutrition is essential for good health. A healthy eating plan emphasises fruit, vegetables, whole grains and low-fat or fat-free dairy. It includes lean meat, poultry, fish, beans, eggs and nuts, and is low in saturated fats, trans fats, salt and added sugars.

Eating right doesn’t have to be complicated or expensive. Choose fresh, ripe varieties when they are in season and eat plenty of them. The recommended amount is at least five servings of vegetables and fruit each day, including at least three servings of vegetables. To get the best nutritional value from cooked vegetables, cook them quickly until they are just soft

enough to eat. Steaming or microwaving is best. Go easy on butter or margarine, fruit juice and dried fruit.

As appetites often get smaller as we age, it’s important to choose healthy food to get the best nutritional value.

Vegetables and fruit are emphasised as they provide carbohydrates (sugar and starch), fibre, vitamins and minerals, and are low in fat.

Lean meats, chicken, seafood, eggs, beans, peas and lentils, as well as nuts and seeds, provide protein, vitamins and minerals. Red meat, chicken and fish contain iron in a form that our bodies can easily absorb. Oily fish, such as salmon, tuna, sardines and mackerel, are good sources of omega 3, which may reduce risk of heart disease and stroke.

What is your retirement going to look like?

Gardening? Lots of travel? Having fun with family and friends?

Marshall rapt with first season Kyle Marshall is in for a promising career as a trainer if his first season is anything to go by.

The Cambridge horseman has recorded 13 wins and 15 placings from only 68 starts this season and he is eager to improve on that mark next term with an exciting, young team behind him.

“I have really enjoyed my first season of training. I have got a few horses around me at the moment, a few young ones, so I am really looking forward to next season, I should have a really good season.”

Marshall has experienced a number of great moments this season, but said securing his first training win with Alta Leonie at Alexandra Park in September was a highlight.

The daughter of Big Jim came to mean a lot to Marshall, with the five-yearold mare also securing his first Cups win as a trainer when victorious in the Otaki Cup (3000m) in February.

She later added the Stratford Cup (2600m) to his trophy cabinet, but was retired after her third-placing in the Hawera Cup (3150m) in April.

Another important moment for Marshall was finishing runner-up in the Gr.3 Northern Trotting Oaks (2200m) with Lady Be Good, who he is expecting to improve next season.

While Marshall has experienced a stellar first season in the training ranks, he has also achieved his best season in the cart in terms of prizemoney.

He has reined home 31 winners this term and earnt $322,427 in prizemoney, nearly $20,000 more than last season.

His latest victory was

behind the Dave and Clare McGowan-trained In My Shadow, who took out the S.O.T.B R50+ $25K Franklin Cup July 19 Mobile Pace (2200m) at Alexandra Park on Friday night last week.

Marshall is looking forward to next season and believes he has the arsenal to have a few runners compete in The Jewels at his home track in May. “I would just like to improve on this season,” he said. “I have got a few young ones coming through that I’d like to think I could get through to the Jewels.”

Warm and real. “A beautiful story turns into a lovely movie, or is it the other way around.” Allan. The character development is complex and layered; the relationships really develop over time. The film stars acclaimed British actor Brian Cox as Rory MacNeil, a rugged old Scotsman who reluctantly leaves his beloved isolated Hebridean island and travels to San Francisco to seek medical treatment. Moving in with his estranged son, Rory sees his life transformed through a newly found bond with his baby grandson.

It's a lovely warm romantic comedy-life drama gem with beautiful photography, that will make you leave the theatre smiling and wanting to spend more time with the people you love.

A story about life, love and loss on the Camino de Santiago. The inspirational journey of six antipodean pilgrims between the ages of 50 and 80 who embark on the historic 800 kilometre Spanish pilgrimage. In the face of overwhelming odds, through blisters, shin splints and heat, the Camino forces pilgrims to defy their age and physical ability, as they come to terms with recent loss. Both heart-breaking and inspirational, ‘Camino Skies’ is an uplifting story about everyday people doing the extraordinary. “Few people know how to take a walk. The qualifications are endurance, plain clothes, old shoes, an eye for nature, good humour, vast curiosity, good speech, good silence and nothing too much.”

It is violent, but you’ll love the plot and the actors. About mild mannered Uber driver named Stu, hence Stuber.

You won’t be able to stop laughing.

THU & FRI 10:35, 1:25, 5:05 & 7:50, SAT 11:45, 2:30, 5:15 & 8:00, SUN 10:10, 12:10, 2:55 & 5:40, TUE 5:05 & 7:40, WED 5:10 & 7:40 A total joy of a film. “Definitely a crowd pleaser… it just works. Green book is my favourite this year and there have been others I have liked a lot.

Off the cuff, I think I would say that this one could compare to Green Book, in its own right. Jack is very likeable, the cast is very good. Great songs.”
