Budding entrepreneurs break into Cambridge market

By Sophie Iremonger A group of young, budding entrepreneurs are taking the business world by storm, going above and beyond what was required of them as part of the 2017 Young Enterprise Scheme to create their own real-world business, which is now serving

the Cambridge community.

Brock Dunn and McKenzie Clare say they’ve learned a lot over the past few months during the development of their new business, Eureka Zalamero Smoothies.

The year 13 business students were part of a group of five who developed the concept plan

for the 2017 Young Enterprise Scheme (YES), which won them a prestigious marketing award out of 28 schools.

In fact the word “yes” was something they’ve learned to say along the way, as it was saying “yes” and making the most of every opportunity which has enabled the savvy

students to get to where they are today.

“Ultimately it’s about relationships and networking,” says Brock Dunn, Operations Manager of the Zalamero business team.

“You’ve just got to take every opportunity that comes to you and run with it. You may not get

the sale but you will come away with a valuable industry contact, and advice.”

His colleague McKenzie Clare, CEO, adds, “We could know everything about our product and the market but if you don’t know anyone or have any contacts you won’t be able to get very far.”

You can see a sparkle in the eyes of these two young men as they explain their business journey so far and their goals for the future, whilst sitting in the sunshine outside Rouge Café in Cambridge.

“If we didn’t know Phil Mackay we probably wouldn’t be here now, and if we didn’t know Jan Bilton we probably wouldn’t have a product, so really we’ve learned that it’s all about talking to people.”

The Zalamero team originally met Phil Mackay, the owner of Rouge, during the business proposal round of YES 2017, where they presented their business case to a panel of

judges in a similar style to the TV show, Dragon’s Den. After they won the regional competition and went on to fully develop their product, they kept in touch with Phil and in recent weeks have begun stocking the new Zalamero “Berry Bezerk” smoothie at Rouge café.

They hope to introduce the bottled smoothie to other cafes and food industry businesses in the Waikato and Bay of Plenty, and in the coming months plan on developing their next flavour, the “Green Kiwi”.

Renowned Bite magazine and Cambridge News food writer Jan Bilton helped the team develop their three smoothie recipes, which also includes “Tropical Trivia”. The students had tried creating all sorts of different recipes of their own, but it was Jan who helped them to develop three different recipes for a delicious, healthy smoothie which is also dairy free and gluten free.

Organisers say it is the ideal opportunity for members of the public to put forward any questions they may have for the politicians and candidates who will be present.

Local MP Louise Upston will attend on behalf of the National Party, and Stu Husband will attend to represent New Zealand First, Winston Peters had been planned to attend on behalf of NZ First but had to cancel due to another commitment on his home turf. The local electorate candidate for the Labour party, Ala’ Al-Bustanji, will attend to represent his party, and Green Party Waikato candidate Phillipa Stevenson will also attend.

With this year’s election appearing to have a lot more attention and drive than in previous years, it certainly will be an exciting event for the people of Cambridge to enjoy.

The Cambridge Grey Power team encourage locals to head along.

Chamber urges council to carefully Local reporter first in Editor’s chair consider Easter Sunday decision

Cambridge Chamber of Commerce is urging Waipa District Council to carefully consider its final decision on Easter Sunday trading after a vote last week by the council’s Strategic Planning and Policy Committee favoured the status quo.

The Shop Trading Hours Amendment Act 2016 came into force in 2016 enabling councils to adopt policies to permit more shops to open for trade on Easter Sunday.

The decision from council last week means Waipa businesses will not be allowed to trade on Easter Sunday.

Decisions from other councils around the region has seen retailers being able to open in Waikato, Thames-Coromandel, Hauraki, Matamata-Piako, Otorohanga and Waitomo districts.

Tania Witheford, CEO Cambridge Chamber of Commerce, says the decision

removes what could be a significant opportunity to allow businesses to open legitimately.

“It’s about providing business with the choice and opportunity to trade. After all, it’s the businesses who are prepared to take all the risks and customers who choose when they will purchase products and services.

If people vote with their feet at Easter and stay away, then their point is made.”

Under current employment law, an employee can decline the opportunity to work and there can be no repercussions, she said. “If this is not working, then fix that issue, not the right to trade”, Witheford said.

Cambridge chamber’s survey of its business community members showed 59.6% in favour of allowing Easter Sunday trading.

“The chamber’s role is to provide the best platform for business and as such we are committed to delivering our

businesses with the choice to trade.

“There are already anomalies based on the type of business that may open on Easter Sunday, so why not take this opportunity to level the playing field?”

“People often complain when legislation gets in the way or there are too many compliance requirements and yet in this very instance we are seeking ‘nanny state’ direction to make what should be a business decision.”

Claire Castle, newly appointed editor of Cambridge News.

“It has a 30 day shelf life but it tastes like real, homemade fresh smoothie; it’s thick, it’s fruity, it’s not watered down, it’s a real, fresh, delicious smoothie. And that’s because of the packaging method.”

During the packaging process the finished smoothie is subjected to 87,000 PSI (pounds per square inch) – a mind boggling amount of high pressure packaging which basically explodes all the potential germs and kills any bad bacteria. “But at the same time it doesn’t affect the flavour, so it’s pretty unique,” says Brock.

“And the only preservative used is a natural preservative, called ascorbic acid which is vitamin C, so it’s an extra health benefit

too.”

The Zalamero team, which includes three other young entrepreneurs; Jethro Malcolm (Finances), Beatrice Judd (Marketing), and Yohani Simpkin (Communications) all year 13 students at Eureka’s Westmount School (Waikato Campus), near Tauwhare – hopes to get as many people possible tasting and talking about the new smoothie, which is aimed at the higher-end food market and would retail for around $7.

“Once you’ve tasted it for yourself and heard our story, we think most people would be willing to buy it,” says Brock.

“It’s just trying to convince the average person on the street to go in and try it and enjoy it.”

World Suicide Prevention Day response sparks Facebook ire A political stoush over suicide has brought Euthanasia-Free NZ out swinging.

By Viv Posselt National MP Simon O’Connor commented on Facebook over the weekend that Labour leader Jacinta Ardern was “concerned about youth suicide but happy to encourage the suicide of the elderly, disabled and sick”.

He posted his comments on Sunday evening – World Suicide Prevention Day – after media coverage of Ms Ardern’s emotional address to a rally outside Parliament marking the day.

Ms Ardern has in the past expressed support for ACT leader David Seymour’s End of Life Choice Bill, which would give people with a terminal illness or irreversible medical condition the option of requesting assisted dying.

Mr Seymour said while he didn’t doubt Ms Ardern’s sincerity around her response on Sunday, he considered her views to be ‘inconsistent’ and said, “she should also be sad about those who are old or depressed or disabled who are also looking to suicide”.

“The intention of taking one’s life is called suicide. There are some who say that there are legitimate opportunities where it should be allowed, and we call that euthanasia or physicianassisted dying. So no, it’s just an inconsistent approach.”

Mr O’Connor’s Facebook comments drew fire on social media, including from a number of MPs, but he has refused to back down, saying: “You cannot allow suicide for some and prevent it for others”.

Cambridge-based Renee Joubert, who is the

executive officer for Euthanasia-Free NZ – an organisation at odds with Mr Seymour’s End of Life Choice Bill – said Simon O’Connor was unfairly under fire for making the connection between suicide and ‘assisted dying’.

“Assisted suicide is by definition ‘receiving help to die by suicide’. Essentially, the only difference between suicide and assisted suicide is the number of people involved in bringing about the death,” she said.

Ms Joubert said her organisation received a constant stream of calls and emails from people wanting ‘assisted dying’ as an alternative means of suicide. Many were from people seeking to end their lives because of terminal illness, but in most instances, the underlying reasons for wanting to die were unlinked to physical suffering, but were based on emotional reasons.

“I am convinced that legal ‘assisted dying’ would put suicidal and depressed people at risk,” she said. “It is inconsistent and irresponsible to support suicide prevention as well as assisted dying.”

Ms Joubert also cited a recent New York High Court finding that assisted dying was the same as assisted suicide.

It found that suicide and assisted dying differed in method, but not necessarily in motivation. In both cases people end their life and choose how they die.

ACT leader David Seymour’s End of Life Choice Bill is due for debate in Parliament after the election.

Letter to the editor Thornton Rd roundabout

I wish to express a massive “thumbs down” in regards to the Thornton Rd/Robinson St roundabout construction.

The Waipa District Council with“great fanfare” announced in February the construction of this long overdue project. Signs were erected (still there) stating construction would commence March 27 and be completed May 31. Very little happened during this period, which included a large period of favourable weather, except for removing an adjoining fence and a little earthworks.

In early July, I wrote to Community Council seeking information as to why there was no activity by the contractors.

The reply was a delay due to “Spark” having to prepare a Health and Safety plan before they could transfer their cabling under the designated roundabout and it took them 6 weeks to organise that. I was assured the project would proceed quickly as it had been submitted and approved.

The question arises in my mind why weren’t the underground services established before commencement and in my view should have been an essential part of the planning process before approval/consent was given by council. I assume the following utilities/

Quilting exhibition has charity at heart

By Viv Posselt

Members of the Cambridge Patchwork Group have always had charitable leanings.

Their inclusion in last week’s 2017 Model Railway Exhibition hosted in the Cambridge Town Hall by the Greater Waikato Railway Modellers Exhibition gave one nod to that. The quilters paired up with model train buffs on that occasion to help fundraise for the Cambridge Brass Band’s visit to France to mark the late 2018 centennial of the liberation of Le

Quesnoy.

In yet another charitable move, the quilters used the same occasion to display and sell some of the 49 quilts they have made for youngsters who will attend the next Camp Quality event early next year.

Camp Quality New Zealand is a volunteer charitable trust that runs fun and inspirational camps for youngsters living with cancer. Specially-made Camp Quality quilts that didn’t sell at the model railway expo will now be available for purchase at next weekend’s Quilt Exhibition in St

Andrew’s parish hall.

“We have made one quilt for each child who will attend the camp,” said Cambridge Patchwork Group’s Lori Neels.

“We were advised there would be 49 youngsters aged from five to 17 years old. We were told how old they were, and how many girls as opposed to boys would be attending, and then made the quilts up to suit.”

Much of the cotton fabric used in making the quilts was donated, and the group plans to do it all again next year for more Camp Quality youngsters.

That labour of love is just one more demonstration of the group’s charitable heart. The Cambridge Patchwork Group has traditionally donated the

proceeds from its exhibitions to a charity of their choice, and this time around, Parkinson’s New Zealand will benefit for the first time.

The exhibition will be at St Andrew’s parish hall from 10am to 4pm on September 23 and 24.

The event will also feature a sales table, and a raffle.

Special Le Quesnoy Quilt to be on display at exhibition

By Viv Posselt Next weekend’s quilt exhibition in Cambridge acknowledges commemorations around World War One and gives special recognition to links with our French sister city, Le Quesnoy.

The biennial exhibition by the Cambridge Patchwork Group will be at the St Andrew’s parish hall next Saturday and Sunday, September 23 and 24.

A variety of works featuring poppies will be central to the theme of the event, with several

poppy-themed quilts on show.

At its heart will be a unique Le Quesnoy Quilt, sewn for the occasion by members of the Cambridge group and displayed with an explanatory story board.

Framed in red, the quilt features 22 black squares, each one bearing its creator’s version of the poppy and its meaning.

Some are fashioned to reference the loss of family members, others depict the role played by soldiers’ families. One shows the story of the New Zealand soldier who clambered over the walls of Le Quesnoy, marking the start of

the November 1917 liberation of the French town.

The task of joining all 22 squares together fell to Cambridge’s Rewa Douglas, who has belonged to the local group since she moved from Auckland to Cambridge four years ago.

Rewa also contributed four of the 22 squares on the completed quilt, including the central panel which features a fractured fleurde-lis in recognition of the tragic legacy of war.

Because the centennial of the liberation of Le Quesnoy falls in November 2018, the quilters

decided to devote part of the 2017 exhibition to recognising that event, Rewa said.

“The idea to make the 2017 exhibition focus on World War One, and to design and make a memorial Le Quesnoy quilt was first mooted with our group in about February this year.

Everyone came on board with it, and we’ve been making the squares since then.

“The only criteria each of our members was given is that it should reflect a poppy, and that their work had to fit within the circles on each of the black

squares.”

The end result offers a rich variety of images and textures around the theme.

Rewa has been liaising with NZ War Memorial Museum Trust

founder Herb Farrant, and said the intention was for the quilt to become part of the permanent display at the planned New Zealand Memorial Museum to be established in Le Quesnoy.

Cinderella & Rockerfella a hit with the audience Leamington School’s production of Cinderella & Rockerfella was a huge hit with audiences this and last week.

A reworking of the classic Cinderella fairytale, the panto-style musical by Mark and Helen Johnson featured a comical script, 10 songs and plenty of opportunity for audience participation.

Year 3 and 4 students performed last Thursday and Friday and year 5 and 6 students on Monday and Tuesday, at Cambridge High School.

“We chose to make two casts to give more children the opportunity to showcase their talents in the shows,” director Phillippa Ramsay said.

“We are really grateful to Cambridge High School for offering their venue to us; the children were very excited to be able to perform on a stage with lighting and sound, which made a huge difference.

“Teachers and students have been working really hard and we are really proud of what they have achieved. We have also had fantastic support from parents and junior team teachers.”

Key cast members included Cinderella (Hannah Bakie and Anna Crouchman), Rockerfella (Turongonui Chase and Lachie Peters), Buttons (Ben Ede and Kade Smith) and the ugly sisters (Eliza Hobby, Sylvie Keightley, Alana Cross and Felicity Watt).

Phillippa thanked Marg Lelieveld, Arie Paton, Christy Meads and Sarah Faville for the large part they played in helping with rehearsals.

Fairytale ending for gutsy Cinderella

By Steph Bell-Jenkins

Anna Crouchman performing Cinderella at Cambridge High School on September 8.

Lying in hospital after suffering agonising burns to her legs, Leamington Primary School student Anna Crouchman was devastated when doctors told her she wouldn’t be able to perform the lead role she had just secured in her school production, Cinderella & Rockerfella.

But it was a real life fairytale ending last week when the gutsy nine-year-old overcame the odds and made it to the stage – and the ball.

Anna suffered severe burns on August 4 when her hot water bottle burst in her bed and sprayed her with scalding liquid, as previously reported in Cambridge News.

She spent six nights in Waikato Hospital, where doctors told her she would need a skin graft operation that would have ruled her out of performing.

However she refused to discuss that possibility and continued to attend rehearsals just days after being released from hospital.

On the day she was due to have the surgery doctors said she had healed so well she didn’t need it and gave her the all clear to take part in the production.

“Performing as Cinderella was an experience I’ll never forget,” the year 4 student said.

“The show wouldn’t have meant as much as it did had my accident not happened, but I found out that if you believe, anything is possible.”

Throughout her ordeal Anna took inspiration from her favourite movie, Full Out, which tells the true story of American gymnast Ariana Berlin, whose Olympic aspirations were crushed after a near-fatal car crash.

Anna had already suffered two other serious injuries this year: a broken wrist and a chipped bone in her foot that left her in a moonboot.

Her parents David and Tracey said she had shown immense grit and positivity through it all.

“She’s bloody determined, this kid,” Tracey said.

“We said from the moment she was born that she was a bull in a china shop. Having seen Anna go through three traumatic accidents this year, that’s really shone through. She’s not going to be knocked down easily.”

Tracey said she cried “a few happy tears” watching Anna walk onstage last Thursday night in front of a large crowd at the Cambridge High School hall.

“As parents it evoked so many

feelings,” she said.

“Above all we were very proud and overjoyed. There was also a sense of relief that despite her unfortunate incident, Anna was determined and committed to fulfilling her assigned role of Cinderella and that is exactly what she did.

“Anna was in her ‘happy place’ on the stage and we were blown away with her overall performance.

We remain grateful for the ongoing support that Anna has received from the hospital staff, the teaching team at school and from all her amazing friends.”

Bridging the Waikato Initially a punt operated across the Waikato River but Cambridge citizens soon demanded a permanent bridge. In 1870 a site was chosen where the Fergusson Bridge is today. At the time the river was at a record low so it was not difficult to bore holes to insert foundation piles.

Sub-Inspector Newall and Sergeant Chitty of the Armed Constabulary supervised the job which was completed the following year.

During November 1874, the river rose eight metres within a few hours. The torrent lifted the timber bridge and swept it downstream to Hamilton, where it was rescued by the Armed Constabulary before it collided with the newly erected bridge at Ngaruawahia. Apparently a constable bravely swam to intercept the bridge and secure it by rope to the shore. As a result of Cambridge losing its bridge, the old punt was brought back into service.

During 1876 a Howe Truss Girder bridge was constructed on the same site. It was 45 metres long, 3.5 metres wide, 4 metres higher than the demolished bridge, and cost £2,345, the Government promising half. It became known as the Red Bridge, as it was painted with red leadoxide paint. The bridge was finally dismantled in 1909. The kauri piles that were driven into the banks were found in 1962 while constructing the Fergusson Bridge.

Cambridge’s Victoria Bridge, a high-level cantilever or steel arch bridge and a first for Australasia, was constructed in 1907. The bridge pieces, manufactured by the American Bridge Company of New York and shipped to Auckland as a kitset, were railed to Cambridge and Te Awamutu on each side of the river. The Governor, Lord Plunket, opened the bridge on 21 December 1907.

The bridge is 141m long including a 88m central arch and 5.2m wide. The decking was six inchthick heart totara which was tarred and coated with sand. The total steel weighed 330 tons, and about 20,000 rivets were driven by pneumatic hammers. The total cost was £14,305 4s 8d.

The first motor car to cross the bridge was driven

by Miss Jeffries, while the mayor, W.F. Buckland, Robert Fisher and John Ferguson shared the first horse and buggy.

The present-day Fergusson Bridge, named after Governor-General Sir Bernard Fergusson, was constructed on the exact site of the Red Bridge, opening in 1964.

Multi-faceted show draws in the crowds

By Viv Posselt

THE ‘YES’ STORY I set up Yes Mortgages in 2007, after starting in the Mortgage Industry in 2004 when my wife and I moved to Cambridge. We have brought up our 5 children here, who are aged from 5 years to 14 years old. It has been a privilege to work with hundreds of clients in Cambridge, the Waikato and beyond over the last 13 years.

I see every clients situation as being unique and personal to them. Every client is different and I will try and tailor their loan and what I can do for them, to suit their needs. I believe people should be treated the same, whether they are doing a $20,000 loan or a $1,020,000 loan.

As the Director of Yes Mortgages, the three key areas of my business are integrity, confidentiality and approachability.

As a client, you deserve to be treated with respect and to be able to trust your advisor. You share financial information with me that is private and this should be kept confidential.

You should be able to contact me when it suits you and have an advisor who is friendly and understanding. These are the things I will strive to do for you.

I am a Registered Financial Advisor and a member of the Professional Advisors Association.

I look forward to helping you with your mortgage needs in the future.

A common delight in small things, attention to detail, and toy trains - and perhaps even a degree of blustery weather – attracted hundreds to the Cambridge Town Hall last weekend.

The main event was the 2017 Model Railway Exhibition mounted by members of the Greater Waikato Railway Modellers, complete with a wide range of displays and a host of items for sale. Joining them was the Cambridge Brass Band, whose performances were aimed at helping raise funds for the band’s November 2018 trip to join in France’s commemorations of the liberation of Le Quesnoy. Proceeds from catering the weekend event also went into the band’s travel coffers.

Paul Murphy, who has links with both the brass band and the model railway crew, and whose wife Diane is a quilter, said thoughts were that well over 1000 visitors had come through the hall during weekend.

“We are thrilled at the response was most encouraging, especially the idea of having ‘boys’ and girls’ stuff’,” he said, “and the quilters Train driver Grant Alexander hosted a range of passengers on his train rides, including picked up five new members!”

EV racers all set to compete

By Sophie Iremonger

Two electric-cart building teams from Cambridge High School (CHS) are reasonably ready and rearing to go heading into the EVolocity Regional Finals in Tamahere this weekend.

Five CHS year 13 students have been working on their electricity-propelled projects since term two of this year, collaborating their ideas and honing in their skills to produce two 2-wheeled bikes powered by electric motors.

The regional final of the EVolocity competition takes place this Saturday at the Kartsport Track on Airport Road, where the CHS boys will compete against dozens of other projects from 13 schools.

All teams taking part in the competition were challenged to design and build their own electric cart or bike, equipped with an electric motor kit provided by EVolocity competition organisers.

Planning began at the start of the year, with construction commencing in term two.

The two CHS projects began to somewhat take shape in the weeks following, but trial and error learning curves meant that the bikes had to be taken

apart and reassembled several times before the completed projects were ready to race.

Final touches were being made this week.

“They’re students, and it is a big project, so they’ve got to make sure they have all their ducks in a row, and they’ve learned over time that if you don’t, things don’t go as planned,” explained Bruce Siriett, technology teacher at Cambridge High School and mentor to the two teams.

“I’ll let them know what will work and what won’t, and sometimes they’ll listen to me and sometimes they won’t!

But that’s part of the learning is solving problems, some of the teachers that do this competition can sometimes be quite controlling, but really, you learn better if you make stuff ups. I can tell them and tell them but until they experience it…if you make a mistake and you learn something from it, you’ll never forget it.”

Both CHS teams have each designed a bike.

“Jarred and I both agreed we wanted to make something with two wheels, because it had a lot less rules (for the competition) and it seemed fun to make, and faster to make,” said Leardt Erasmus, whose

partner Jarred Treymane was absent on the day of interview.

“We went for speed, we wanted it to be as light and as fast as we can, so hopefully we’ll do well in the drag race.”

The competition on Saturday will see teams compete across a range of categories, the most

“exciting” being the big drag race and street race. Other categories include “Economy Drive” (electricity usage), rolling resistance and “Show and Innovation”.

Both CHS teams hope to do well in the Show & Innovation division. The other CHS team, which includes Reuben Theron, Marvin Li, and Michael Arnott, believe they have a good chance in this category after crafting a beautifully vintagestyle bike.

“We decided we were going to do a two-wheeler, and while we were still designing it we got the idea of making it like a vintage-looking bike, so that’s why we have the (fake) gas tank underneath, for the look,” explained Reuben. “We wanted to make it look as vintage as possible.”

The boys had to learn how to shape and mould fibre glass to make the stylish casing. “It came

out a lot better than I thought it would,” said Reuben.

Both teams had a few hiccups, from incorrectly-placed wheel brackets to different sized sprockets, chains and other parts which didn’t match up, but with the help and guidance of their teacher, in the end their projects came together and were being finalized and finetuned in the days leading up to competition.

When asked whether they felt ready for race day, Reuben replied, “I suppose! Well I am, I don’t know about Marvin!”

“He is anyway,” Marvin added with a smile. Marvin, being the most light-weight member of the team, will race the bike on Saturday. In the other CHS team, Leardt will likely be the designated driver, or both he and Jared will have a race each if allowed.

“I reckon it’s pretty cool,” Leardt said of the near-

completed bike. “It’s our first time doing this, so I reckon, because of that, it came out pretty good.

“It has been a good chance to build up our common knowledge as well, like with a lot of the small things, you’d make a mistake, think ‘how do I do this’, and you’d learn from it.”

When asked how he thought the teams would get on at the race day on Saturday, Mr Surreitt was quite honest in saying, “I don’t know!” but had confidence in the boys’ projects and abilities as they head towards the big day.

Members of the public are welcome and encouraged to head along to the EVolocity Waikato regional final at Kartsport Hamilton, Airport Rd, Tamahere, from 9am to 3pm (free entry) this Saturday 16 September. More information is available at www.evolocity. co.nz.

Cambridge Community Board 25 years with Altrusa September update

By Mike Pettit, Chairperson, Cambridge Community Board

The Cambridge Community Board (CCB) have taken on a project to open up for viewing only, the old WW11 fuel bunker tunnel down at Lake Te Ko Utu. The project is coming along well with lighting, steel doors and the history of the bunker being researched at present. The history will be put up on perspex story boards when it is opened.

If you have historical knowledge, photos or stories, please make

contact with board member Julie Epps who is dealing with this side of the project. Phone 021 253 8283 or email djepps@ extra.co.nz.

The parking of trucks particularly around the town square area has increasingly become a problem.

Council have a parking study due for completion by December 1. In the meantime, we have asked for one warning notices to be placed on the offending trucks before a

sewer pipe station renewal, Thornton Road roundabout and a dedicated pressure water main from Leamington to Cambridge north to alleviate fluctuations in pressure.

Building consents were strong for July with 29 new house dwellings totalling $13.7 million, averaging $472,500 per dwelling. Other significant builds were in the retirement village area, at $3.4 million.

Total building consent work in Cambridge for July was $21.6 million, just over half the value for Waipa as a total. Our local economy across the district remains very buoyant.

Our CCB meetings take place on the first Wednesday of each month. It begins with a public forum at 6.00pm, where members of the public are able to come and speak.

We will listen and always do our best to assist.

To place an item on the formal agenda, please do so at least 10 days before the meeting, either by emailing myself on; mike. pettit@waipadc.govt.nz or our CCB secretary at Noelene.BarrAllwood@waipadc.govt.nz or contact any board member by visiting www.waipadc.govt.nz.

Cambridge daffodil champion of show A single-stem, white, geometric daffodil known as “Cosmic Ice”, grown by Ian Fisher and Rob Hill of Fisher Nurseries in Cambridge, won the top award at the North Island National Daffodil Show in Gisborne over the weekend.

The Fisher Nurseries team entered the first stage of the competition with 350 blooms.

1200 blooms in total were entered into the national event, including trumpets, large cups, small cups and doubles.

Although many entries appeared to share the same geometric perfection as the Cosmic Ice, judges examined the flowers closely for imperfections, and chose the “cosmic” daffodil as the winner of the “Champion Bloom” award.

“Raised in Nelson by John Hunter it was a lovely flower which we were very proud to have grown,” the Cambridge team said.

Entries into the competition this year pushed the boundaries of “daffodil-ness”, with bizarre features such as

the split-corona, the multiflowering reverse daffodil, and the cyclamineus with its blownback petals. But it was the single

stem, white, geometric bloom grown by the Cambridge team that took the top award of the day.

Kapa haka festival draws record numbers

By Sophie Iremonger

The beauty of Maori culture was showcased, celebrated and enjoyed immensely by the local community last week when Cambridge students of all ages took to the stage for the Combined Cambridge Schools Kapa Haka Festival.

The 4th annual event on Tuesday, September 5 saw kapa haka groups from nine different schools put on an electrifying performance for the public.

Cambridge High School Assistant Principal Marcel Kuijpers, one of the organisers of the event, said the standard of the performances on the night were extremely high. “Each and every student can be proud of the way they represented their schools,” said Mr Kuijpers.

“There was clearly a lot of effort that went into each performance so a huge thanks needs to go to all of the students, whanau, teachers and tutors involved for making it such a fantastic night.

“There is obviously a lot of talent in our

R 5 YEaAnship

Workm ntee Guara

community when it comes to kapa haka and the audience were certainly treated to an awesome spectacle.”

A bake sale on the night, as well as gold coin entry, made for a total number of $1250 being raised for Kids Can. “We would like to thank the public for coming in their hundreds to support the festival and for their generosity,” said Kuijpers.

Te Miro School performed in the festival for the first time this year, bringing the total number of schools taking part to a record of nine. These included Cambridge East Primary, Cambridge Primary, Leamington Primary, Tamahere School, Te Miro School, St Peter’s Catholic School, Cambridge Middle School, St Peter’s School and Cambridge High School.

“We will now look forward to seeing the same schools back in 2018 and any others who are keen to be a part of this great community event.”

FRIDAY SEPTEMBER 15, 2017

Tougher rules for freedom camping Taupo MP Louise Upston recently welcomed National’s proposal to introduce tougher rules for freedom camping to better protect public spaces and crack down on poor

Hon. Louise Upston

behaviour.

She said many New Zealanders and international visitors enjoy camping and make a large contribution to the county’s tourism industry, with freedom campers staying longer and spending more on average than other visitors.

“We want them to continue to enjoy what New Zealand has to offer and add to the $380 million a year they currently spend in our regions. However, they need to do so responsibly.

“That’s why we want to give councils and the Department of Conservation (DOC) help to penalise those who demonstrate poor or disrespectful behaviour.”

Ms Upston said National will restrict all non-self-contained

vehicles to areas that are within easy walking distance of toilet facilities – approximately 200 metres.

“Councils and DOC will be able to ban freedom camping from certain areas and issue instant fines to those who break the rules.

“If the fine can’t be paid on the spot, it will be assigned to the vehicle owner, including rental car companies.

“To make compliance easier, we will also create a new smartphone app to show exactly where people can and cannot camp.

“We will ensure consistent public signage across the country to make sure freedom campers know their rights and responsibilities.”

Ms Upston said while the wish was for visitors to enjoy their time here, that included

taking responsibility for their actions and doing their share to take care of the county.

“National will give greater powers to councils and DOC to enable and enforce this.”

$40,000 in funding available to creative community Waipa’s creative community is being encouraged to apply for more than $40,000 in funding ring-fenced to support arts events and projects in the district.

The funding is provided by Creative New Zealand via its Creative Communities Scheme and is given to the council to administer each year.

Last year recipients in Cambridge included the Cambridge Society of Arts, Cambridge Creative Fibre, St Peters Catholic School production, Armistice in Cambridge Dance and music performance, Royal Scottish Country Dance Society, Cambridge Autumn Festival and

Cambridge Community Arts Council.

Funding is open to projects that run between 1 November 2017 and 31 May 2018 and that fit at least one of the scheme’s three criteria; access and participation, diversity or young people.

Applications for funding are open now and close on 29 September. Grants are allocated by a committee including local community arts council members and people with arts experience.

Information on eligibility, along with application forms can be found at www. waipadc.govt.nz/creativecommunities.

Reds pick up fourth football title

By Josh Easby, Cambridge Football Club

Cambridge are the football champions of the Waikato/Bay of Plenty. With an emphatic 7-0 win against local rivals Te Awamutu, Cambridge secured the region’s 2017 Loaded WaiBOP Premiership title with a game to spare. The title is the fourth major success achieved by the club’s senior teams this season, as well as: Winning the 2017 WaiBOP Championship, the second highest level of the region’s sport behind the Premiership, winning of the 2017 Waikato

Women’s League, and retaining the WaiBOP Challenge Shield.

The club also has the opportunity to win the Soccer Shop Waikato Cup with its Waikato B team playing Otorohanga in the final on Saturday (September 16) after the match was postponed last weekend.

Cambridge’s Premiership win means the club now gets the chance to play Auckland club Beachlands-Maraetai in a two-legged play-off for a place in next year’s Northern League.

The club narrowly lost a similar play-off in 2015 after it last won

the WaiBOP Premiership, and the squad will be keen to make up for that disappointment.

Certainly, the Cambridge team showed its class at Te Awamutu’s Anchor Park, coasting to an easy victory in blustery conditions. The home side held Cambridge for 22 minutes before pressure got the better of them and Callum MacLeod found the net from a Daniel Clarkin cross.

Within six minutes, Cambridge had raced to a 3-0 lead with goals from Tom Woutersen in a goalmouth scramble and then skipper

fixture at Melville United next weekend.

With the WaiBOP Championship title already won, Cambridge’s second team almost spoiled its nine-match unbeaten run with a poor first half in their game at Te Awamutu, allowing the home side to race to a 3-0 half-time lead through Kieran Ashburner, Loui Ashburner and Jamie Bowen.

But Cambridge fought back with the wind at their backs to take a 3-3 draw thanks to goals from Dehein Hindley (47 mins),

James Cakebread (62 mins) and Zak Petropolous (87 mins). The side plays its last game of the season next Saturday, hosting Waikato Unicol.

Cambridge’s women’s first team have completed a successful season in which they won the Waikato League title and then finished third in the WaiBOP Premier League.

The finished their Premier League programme with a 3-2 come-from-behind win against Melville United’s Development squad in wet conditions at Cambridge.

His effort started a late rout of a tiring Te Awamutu side, with Josh Clarkin heading home in the 75th minute, Woutersen poaching a goal from close and Latham finishing the job with his second in the dying minutes.

The win extended Cambridge’s unbeaten run to 15 matches, with 43 points taken from a possible 45. The side plays its last Premiership

Scholarship recipient balances studies with more athletic wins

By Viv Posselt Cambridge athlete Emerson Deverell has just tucked another win under her belt.

This time, the 19-year-old Waikato University student notched up a win in the 2017 Athletics New Zealand National Road Championships in Christchurch on September

2, taking first place in the 5km race for U20 women in a time of 18:28.

Her entry into the national championships came hot on the heels of her participation in the World Mountain Running Championships, held in Premana, Italy, on July 30, where she placed 24th.

That event switches each year

Emerson Deverell taking time out during her gruelling schedule.

from an ascent only one year, to a combined ascent and descent the following year, she said, and can take in some pretty gruelling terrain. This year was an ascent and descent year, and Emerson was in the top 15 when she reached the top of the ascent, but had dropped to 24th by the time she finished the downhill segment.

“I far prefer going uphill – it’s quite rocky and technical going down,” she said. “I stayed in Italy for a few weeks before the race took place, training with New Zealander Jonathan Wyatt. He is a six-time world mountain running champion.

The town where he lives is about 1000m above sea level, about the same as the race itself … but he had me training at altitudes up to 2000m.”

Emerson’s athletic prowess covers a range of disciplines - cross country, road and track running and mountain running - and she enjoys the variety that offers. A member of the Hamilton City Hawks Athletics Club and coached by Cambridge’s Don Willoughby, Emerson trains throughout the

year, working towards different events as they come up. Her training for mountain running takes her to Maungatautari and Te Aroha, where she finds the demanding steep gradients and rough terrain that she needs.

Mountain running is one of the fastest growing disciplines in Europe, and to a lesser degree, in African countries, she said: “It’s really huge in Europe – it has nothing like that following here in New Zealand.”

Emerson’s mum Bridget has athletic chops of her own, which means the family has been on the vent circuit for years. The competitive bug bit Emerson in 2013, and took a firm hold after she won her first major track event, the 2013 New Zealand Secondary Schools Track Championships.

She went on to test her mettle in some major events, winning the national U20 road running title in 2015, and representing New Zealand in a cross-country championship event in Australia in the same year.

In 2016, Emerson placed clearly help; Emerson has no 28th in the USF World plans to give up one for the Schools Cross Country other.

Championships in Hungary, “Running is everything to and later that year came me. It takes me a lot of places 21st in the World Mountain I might otherwise never go Running Championships in to, provides me with great Bulgaria. In between those two opportunities that I’d probably events she competed in her never have otherwise.” first New Zealand Mountain Running Championships in Queenstown, and won in her age-group.

“I’d never done mountain running competitively before that.”

She enjoys the challenge of running the different events, and finds they cover the athletics year well.

A Sir Edmund Hillary Scholar, Emerson is now in her first year of a four-year business management degree majoring in economics and finance. It makes for a gruelling schedule, and one where she is expected to keep her academic grades high at the same time as maintain a rigorous training schedule for various events throughout the year.

Technology and a gritty Emerson in action during one approach to time management of her many events.

St Peter’s win 2017 National Co-ed Cup St Peter’s School, Cambridge 1st XV are the 2017 National Co - Educational School rugby champions, following a comprehensive win over 2016 Champs Feilding High School on Sunday. St Peter’s qualified as the Chiefs representatives in the top four co-ed schools nationally, having beaten Te Awamutu College, Hillcrest and Western Heights in the regional competition. Feilding represented the Hurricanes, St Andrew’s College was there for Southland and Rangitoto College for the Blues.

In the semi-finals on Friday last week, St Peter’s was up against St Andrew’s College. St Peter’s capitalised on a strong breeze during the first half.

Bodie Mechell scored two tries; the first swopping onto a loose ball and running 60 metres after a big tackle on a Southland attacking player from Peni Finau. Cameron Roigard superbly finished off four excellent team tries.

Playing into the wind in the second half, it was a matter of strong defensive efforts by St Peter’s. Lead by Ollie Norris, James Thompson, Devon Gregory and Captain Kaea Hongara, the Waikato boys held their own, restricting the South Island team to 15 points.

With a convincing 48-15 win over St Andrews, St Peter’s secured a place in the finals against Feilding.

The St Peter’s side put on a strong performance on Sunday, not conceding a single try to Feilding. Devin Gregory crossed the chalk first

for St Peter’s, after not being held in a tackle. Centre PJ Latu expanded the lead to 14-3, when he sprinted 65 metres following an offload from team mate Andrew Viane. Feilding was down 24-3 with 20 minutes to go when St Peter’s hooker Sean Chenery and lock

Peni Finau were sin binned in quick succession. Even reduced to 13 men, the St Peter’s defence and character stayed strong, holding a Feilding player up over the line.

Keeping the ball in tight and playing a smart clinical game, the St Peter’s team worked

their way into the Feilding half, putting themselves into position to pull off a long rolling maul designed by head Coach Sean Hohneck and finished by Sean Chenery.

Thanks to the dominance of forwards Andrew Viane (awarded man of the match),

Ollie Norris, James Thomson and Peni Finua, St Peter’s wore down the 2016 champions to win their first national rugby title and the NZ Barbarians trophy, with the final score 31-3.

St Peter’s U15 rugby team were runners-up in the Lindisfarne U15 tournament.

Couples’ chance to tap into local wedding network If you’re getting married in the Waikato in the near future, you could be forgiven for thinking you’d have to go out of town to meet all your wedding needs.

Luckily for you, a local collective of industry professionals have you covered.

Cambridge makeup artist Abbie Hartland is part of a local collective, dubbed Wed in Waikato, which is putting on a wedding fair, for locals by locals, in Hamilton on September 24.

Abbie says she loves working in the wedding industry and the entrepreneurial spirit of the five women behind One Wonderful Day. “Wed in Waikato came about because we all know that by working together, we’ll all be more successful. It’s about

collaboration and learning from one another,” she says.

“While other regional wedding fairs have more of a general offering, we’ve strived to serve a more focused and curated creme de la creme of local professionals.”

One Wonderful Day brings together wedding professionals from across the Waikato in one place - The Atrium at Wintec House - for one day, so you can meet and secure all you need to create your perfect Waikato wedding. Abbie says all the vendors were hand-picked to ensure they have the same positive approach that Wed in Waikato’s core team members pride themselves on.

“It’s really important to us, as professionals, that we’re adaptable and modern. We’re

open to new things and willing to try anything, so we’ve ensured our vendors all have the same attitude,” she says.

Among the stalls at One Wonderful Day there will be other Cambridge businesses Petal Passion, Adora Bridal Hair and Robyn Stinson Design.

Abbie says there will also be photo and video booth options and photographers with a more relaxed, documentarystyle approach, along with reimagined food solutions - from mobile catering vehicles to the very do it yourself-able concept of grazing platters.

“We already have a great network of high quality professionals in the local wedding industry, from Cambridge and beyond. So this

fair is about giving locals who One Wonderful Day is on See www.onewonderfulday. are planning their weddings the Sunday, September 24, at The co.nz for more.021 755 517 chance to tap into that.”

Living in the fast lane

By Judith Danks Naturopath

Increasingly families are not sitting down together for meals, and these meals are becoming more processed. This includes tinned, canned and packet food.

Even shopping becomes stressful as parents are aware that they should be buying wholesome, fresh food, but are choosing fast food instead.

Parents are exhausted so

reach for the 5minute frozen fries, and crumbed fish fingers.

This kind of meal is a no-brainer, its nutritional content is also similar to what it was packaged in.

The question is? Is fast food the real problem or is society just creating a need for it because we don’t have time to plan a wholesome meal.

What happened to the extra time that appliances such as

microwaves, and dishwashers, were supposed to have given us? Not to mention all the recycling that these fast foods create, and the obesity statistics.

There are many issues surrounding food and lifestyle, and many of them can be sorted out by just slowing down and making good wholesome food choices and taking time to enjoy a lovely meal with the one you love.

Huge variances in housing demand across country New property listings fall 17.5 per cent nationally The New Zealand housing market is showing significant regional variances in the lead up to the general election.

Nationally, there has been a fall in new listings, static asking prices and muted demand in

August.

“With inventory and demand both low, we are currently in a relatively stable price environment,” says realestate. co.nz spokesperson Vanessa Taylor.

Real time statistics from realestate.co.nz show that

Statistics from realestate. co.nz show that the number of new property listings in August fell 17.5 per cent nationally compared to the same month last year. All regions were impacted except for Hawkes Bay and the West Coast which

both increased.

Only 8,729 new listings were registered across the country during August.

The upper half of the North Island saw the most dramatic falls in new listings compared to the same period last year, with Auckland down 22.7 per cent, Waikato 23.2 per cent, Northland 24.0 per cent and Coromandel 37.6 per cent.

Waikato: “The Waikato region paints an interesting picture,” says Vanessa Taylor.

“The record average asking price of $552,707 is offset by a 23.2 per cent fall in the number of new property listings compared to the same period last year, so it could be assumed that asking prices may be impacted by supply and demand pressures,” she says.

However, interest in the region (as recorded by demand) is relatively low. The Waikato region is second to bottom (above Auckland) when it comes to interest from across the country (-18.61 per cent).

Asking prices fall in Auckland region as interest falters…

“The Auckland market appears to have lost its shine

when it comes to potential buyer interest and asking prices have fallen,” says Vanessa Taylor.

Property asking prices fell one per cent in August to $933,502 compared to July 2017. The last time average Auckland asking prices were at this level was September 2016 when it stood at $933,435.

In June 2017, there was an anomaly drop when we saw an influx of 800 apartments come onto the market, impacting on the overall average asking price.

Of the 19 regions, demand for Auckland property sat at -23.9 per cent, placing the country’s largest city at the bottom of the table.

The Auckland region also registered a 22.7 per cent fall in the number of new property listings compared to August 2016.

Asking prices are at “all-time highs” in five regions… In contrast to Auckland, asking prices in August were at all-time highs in five other regions across the country – namely Waikato, Wellington, Taranaki, Central Otago Lakes and the Wairarapa.

Celebrating success of women in construction

“In town on Wednesdays.”

“In town on Wednesdays.”

“In town on Wednesdays.”

Winners of the third annual Hays NAWIC Excellence Awards have been celebrated as “trailblazing role models for women in construction” during last week’s ceremony at the Aotea Centre in Auckland.

The awards honour the outstanding achievements women are making in New Zealand’s construction industry.

With 10 percent yearly growth rates predicted through to 2019 and 50 000 more construction workers required within the next five years, it makes sense to encourage more women to work in construction and to highlight career paths available in this exciting sector.

Verena Maeder from Solid Earth Ltd took out Tradeswoman of the Year for her cutting-edge approach to leading the only commercial earth building business in New Zealand.

As a 16-year-old exchange student, Swiss-born Verena visited a mud brick home in Nelson and it was “love at first sight” when she entered the house. After returning to Switzerland Verena studied architecture and building ecology before returning to New Zealand in 2002 to purchase a mud brick operation.

Verena has worked with the Ministry of Business, Innovation and Employment (MBIE) to

develop earth building standards, along with contributing to the development of an improved energy efficient load bearing mud brick.

Emily Sutton of City Care won the Apprentice and Student Award (trades) for her outstanding work as an apprentice digger operator.

When Emily joined City Care as a pre-apprentice she watched digger operators onsite and thought, “I want to do that”. She now operates diggers all over Christchurch and has achieved her dream. She is studying towards a Certificate in Civil Infrastructure Trades while volunteering as a firefighter in her free time.

Highly commended awards and special merit awards were awarded to the following finalists: Hayley Tribble (Tripro Ltd) – highly commended – Professional Woman of the Year (professional) Andrea Williamson (Fletcher Construction) – highly commended – Professional Woman of the Year (construction) Melvina Browne Uriarau (LiveWire Electrical) – highly commended – Tradeswoman of the Year Laisa Pickering (Electrix Ltd) – highly commended – Tradeswoman of the Year Esther Loh (Beca) – highly

Discover Morrinsville Exhibition this month at Wallace Gallery An exhibition on this month at the Wallace Gallery in Morrinsville provides an uncompromising look at the realities of life, of seeing self and seeing the world without filters.

Titled, “The Agenbite of Inwit”, the exhibition features stunning works by two New Zealand artists, Dale Copeland and Paul Hutchinson, and continues throughout this month until September 24.

Entry is free, and Cambridge locals are encouraged to pop over and enjoy the collection.

Hutchinson, a full-time artist for more than 40 years, notes, “While my work is always labelled ‘realism’ it is the dichotomy and dynamic between the physical paint and the depicted image that interests me most: before all else they are paintings.”

Dale Copeland’s work is described as bringing meticulous order to an assemblage; a collection of treasures which combine their lost histories to make a story of their own.

“Not an anecdotal story,” she explains, “but a song, a feeling, a descriptor of the pain and the glory of being human; the joy of being alive and the sombre reality of knowing your own mortality.”

The Wallace Gallery Morrinsville is a contemporary gallery located at 167 Thames Street, with four unique spaces that showcase New Zealand art and artists.

It holds the most comprehensive collection of contemporary New Zealand art in existence, with more than 5000 pieces valued at over $50 million, spanning over 50 years – an incredible accolade and a real

The project, dubbed, ““Herd of Cows - Morrsinsville Street Art” is aimed to showcase the history and heritage of Morrinsville, combining the strong dairying sector with the town’s growing art culture.

Behind each of the 42 cows is a sponsor, an artist, and a story. The full details behind each cow is available at www. herdofcowsmorrinsville.co.nz – where a map is listed, detailing the location of each cow.

“The “Herd of Cows?” project was born from a desire to put Paul Hutchinson's piece, 'Old Morrinsville on the map… We School Pens', is one of many are the ‘Cream of the Country’ on exhibition this month and the ‘Dairy Capital of the

World’ so now it’s time we showed the world. We also have the extraordinary Wallace Gallery. We are primarily a town supporting the agricultural industry with a growing arts culture,” explained one of the organisers behind the project.

“The ‘Herd of Cows?’ project was a way to combine the two staying relevant and building on our current assets.

“We are not famous for anything. We don’t fly the flag for anything famous or hang our hats on natural features, but we do have something to celebrate.

“Our dream was to put smiles on the faces of everyone who walk the streets of Morrinsville, soaking up the variety of quirky and colourful bovines, making our town proud of who we are and what we are all about.”

Organisers behind the project say they would like those visiting Morrinsville to try and find them all.

Those who think a company has gone above and beyond in meeting customer expectations

can nominate the business for the Customer Service Award.

Winners of the awards will be announced at the Business Night Out, to be held at the Silver Fern Farms Events Centre in Te Aroha on Thursday 12 October.

Keynote speaker will be Martin Snedden, former Black Cap and chief executive of NZ Cricket and Rugby World Cup 2011.

Last year, Matamata-Piako businesses gathered on 1 September to recognise the efforts and success of local businesses. Over 280 people from across the district attended the event.

The winners included…

The annual intermediate sports camp competition held at Totara Springs Christian Centre in Matamata from August 29 to September 1 saw a combined team from Miller Avenue and Hikutaia schools win the competition overall alongside Te Kowhai School.

There were eight schools involved in the annual competition, which saw year 7 and 8 students take part in 20 team sports over the week,

including netball, rugby, ripper rugby, touch rugby, hockey, volleyball, basketball, cross country, soccer and softball.

Students also took part in individual sports including archery, shooting, table tennis, pentanque, bowls, croquet and frisbee golf.

The overall winning team, led by Hikutaia School’s Olivia Robinson and Miller Avenue’s Phil Gurnick, finished up with nine trophies and were named

overall winners with Te Kowhai School.

Meanwhile, Paeroa Christian School students combined with Matamata Christian School and Hamilton Seventhday Adventist School for the competition, coming home in fourth place overall – the Matamata school’s best result so far after more than 10 years of being part of the annual camp.

The Matamata Bowling Club has pulled off an excellent group effort, working with the Rewa Bowling Club to gather funds to purchase a defibrillator.

Along with the help of a personal donation, the $4000 purchase will include training for the new defibrillator.

Ensuring Matamata Club has life-saving equipment on hand has been a group effort.

The Matamata Club, together with The Rewa Bowling Club, and a personal

donation has enabled Matamata Club, to purchase a defibrillator.

A defibrillator is a portable medical device that can automatically assess a patient’s heart rhythm.

It judges whether defibrillation is needed and, if required, administers an electric shock through the chest wall to heart.

Knowing how valuable it would be to the members of the bowling club, Rewa bowling member John Robb and his

wife Lorraine personally donated money towards the equipment. Their club also used funds from money it raised at the Community Opportunity Shop.

60 per cent of the Matamata Club’s membership is aged 60-plus, so having the equipment will certainly be handy.

Club members say it’s not just for the club, but for the community too. Will full training provided, there will usually be a club member on site who will know how to use it.

“We had known that a reappearance of obvious myrtle rust symptoms was likely in spring – so while this is disappointing, it’s not unexpected.”

The Ministry for Primary Industries (MPI) found traces of the fungus myrtle rust on two ramarama trees in Otorohanga last week.

It is the first new myrtle rust find of the spring and the first detection outside of the known established areas in Taranaki and Te Puke. The properties in which the infected trees reside both do not have any connection with nurseries or other infected properties in Taranaki. It would appear these infections have occurred by wind dispersal from Australia, like the infections in other regions.

Cambridge cars on show at Classic Car Parade

By Sophie Iremonger

The Hamilton Classic Car Parade held recently in the city’s CBD has a fantastic turnout of 160 cars and saw just under $1900 raised for the Waikato/Bay of Plenty Cancer Society.

Organised by the Cambridgebased Waikato Veteran and Vintage Car Club (WVVCC), in association with the Classics Museum, the event last weekend saw several Cambridge cars and dozens of Waikato vehicles take part, from early models of the first-ever automobiles through to

the later model muscle cars, and everything in between.

WVVCC member and Cambridge local Hugh McInally, one of the organisers of the event, thought it was a good turnout for the event’s first year, given the limited time they had had in getting the word out, and looked forward to putting on another parade next year.

“We did pretty well for our first year, the weather held out, which we had been a bit worried about, so it was very successful… everybody finished up at the Classics Museum and parked up

Theo de Leeuw's Model T.

outside, drivers got a free ticket into the museum, members of the public got to see the cars… it was good.”

The Classics Museum in Hamilton got involved in the event out of a twist of fate. The national body of the Veteran and Vintage Car Clubs of New Zealand had proposed that all clubs hold a display day for all of their club cars, all on the same day across the country, with all events raising funds for their respective regional branch of the Cancer Society.

“Then when it came to actually

organising it, we found that the Classics Museum had also mentioned a parade, so it was just a coincidence, we wanted a parade, they wanted a parade, so we combined our efforts,” explained Hugh.

The Hamilton City Council jumped on board and helped promote the event and manage parking, and the Hamilton Rotary Club helped to raise funds on the day.

Cambridge’s Theo De Leeuw was one of the Cambridge drivers taking part on the day, driving his 1912 Model T Tourer, restored by his father Theo in the 1970s.

“It was a great event, a good spread of vehicles, a good drive,

and good fun of course. The Model T Club (of New Zealand) had a good turn out with about 9 or 10 vehicles.”

Theo confirmed he’ll take part in the event next year, adding, “with the whole idea of Daffodil Day and raising money for cancer and so on, I think everybody’s got to support that in some way”.

Cambridge locals Steve Cochrane and Bob Pennycook also paraded their cars on the day, Steve’s 1947 Nash Ambassador, and Bob’s 1947 Packard. Both had their cars fully restored after purchasing them in the late 90s, Bob’s coming from Christchurch and Steve’s from Eureka, near Matangi. Stan Everson started

Steve Cochrane in the Nash.

the restorations around 2002, which eventually took 10 years to complete on a part time basis.

“He made a beautiful job of them, he was a top tradesman,” Bob said of the late Everson.

“We try to get into as many of those sorts of things as we can,” said Bob, regarding the Classic Car Parade. “It was really quite terrific and it had a good turn out too.

“They’re great old things… It’s nice to see them (vintage cars) back on the road.”

“I’d say well be taking part next year,” added Steve. “It was a really good event this year, and it’ll probably just grow from that I would think.”

(R16)

The new horror thriller ‘IT’ is based on the hugely popular Stephen King novel of the same name, which has been terrifying readers for decades. When children begin to disappear in the town of Derry, Maine, in a place known as 'The Barrens' a group of seven young kids are faced with their biggest fears when they square off against an evil clown named Pennywise whose history of murder and violence dates back for centuries. They are united by their horrifying and strange encounters with this nightmare and are determined to kill IT. IT is not just a horror story but an exploration of childhood, growing up, friendship and facing both real and supernatural fears and is a great story.

Nott since Muriel’s Wedding have marital concerns felt so amusingly raw and honest. A Date for Mad Mary is a charming coming-of-age story that is sparingly humorous, often melancholic, but always engaging.

Mary has just been released from prison, as her troubled background of drinking and goofing around resulted in six months’ jail time for a violent pub brawl. Alienated from her social circle, Mary accepts the maid-of-honour responsibility from her soon-to-be-wed best friend Charlene (Charleigh Bailey), but discovers it’s not so easy to find a date for the wedding. Her lack of focus and motivation to get her life back on track doesn’t help matters and cracks begin to appear in their friendship. When she strikes up a relationship with the wedding photographer Jess (Tara Lee), it awakens amorous sensibilities in her that she hadn’t previously considered.
