THE TANKS ARE COMING
By Claire Castle
This week I nearly made a citizen’s arrest, when I saw a woman take an outrageously large pile of books out of the book exchange and make off up Empire St. I abandoned my coffee and took off in hot pursuit, almost breaking into a run at one point, and asked her what she thought she was doing pillaging all the books. Turns out she was Sue Milner, curator of the book exchange (sorry, Sue). The pile of books was textbooks and books that were, for want of a better word, knackered. We had a good chat – glad I didn’t tackle her – and she would like to request that people please not put textbooks into the phone box. You probably didn’t read them while you were studying, and nobody is interested in reading them now. Likewise, dog-eared, mangled tomes with pages falling out, or magazines (except National Geographic). Also, please refrain from setting the phone box on fire (see the fire callouts). The book exchange was a passion of the late Richard Wright, who had a marvellous send off in Karapiro on Monday. I can safely say I have never before attended a memorial service where the Ying Tong Song was played. And I’m still laughing about the joke ad he placed in the paper for the naked tree climbers’ AGM, telling members to check their dates. He was truly one-of-a-kind, and we have the obituary on page 13. Have a great week, everyone. Claire Castle, editor

Judy Lyon Ban them, I feel sorry for the people that get hurt, especially the kids. Organised events are all right but I think the private sale should be banned.
In the early hours of Tuesday morning, both the Spark and Vodafone shops on Victoria St were targeted by thieves who smashed through their frontages to gain access. The Spark store was hit first, with video footage showing two intruders smashing their way inside with a rock around 4am, with one waiting outside as a lookout, store manager Amylee McDonnell said. Once inside, they bashed a large hole in a bolted door and went into the back office. Amylee said once the thieves had gained access to the back room they were unable to open a barred and padlocked cupboard that houses the new phones. The shop’s alarm failed to go off despite being set, and Amylee said an immediate investigation by the security company has been launched, and security has been beefed up to prevent a repeat of the situation. The first employees knew of the damage, she said, was when a passing
courier alerted one of her staff to the smashed window. After being unsuccessful at the Spark store, it appears the would-be thieves went over the road and smashed through Vodafone’s front window. This time, Vodafone’s alarm sounded, and security arrived at the scene to secure the premises, and when Vodafone staff arrived security personnel went over the road to guard the exposed Spark store. Early media reports said Spark had suffered more stock loss than Vodafone, which Amylee said was
incorrect. “We didn’t lose anything, and Vodafone only lost one phone,” she said. Vodafone sustained more damage however, as their front window was smashed. Spark only had to replace a glass door and connecting door into the back office. Police said that a car stolen from Vogel Street was linked to the raids, and that their enquiries are ongoing. They ask that anyone with information contacts the Cambridge Police station or call Crimestoppers on 0800 555 111 to make an anonymous report.
The Vodafone shop sustained greater damage in the attack, with their whole front window taken out.
Guy Fawkes went off with a bang on the weekend. We hit the street this week to see what the people think about the use of fireworks.
Tony Maddocks My concern is more for animals during Guy Fawkes, and people still aren’t getting the message as to the dangers that fireworks can create for children.
SEE PAGE 6
Shivneet Nand I love fireworks, they can be dangerous but a lot of things are dangerous. I think people should just be careful, and have responsible adult supervision.
Kim Prichard I love the public fireworks events. I don’t support when people use fireworks privately on other nights of the week, it keeps kids awake, stresses animals. But the public weekend events are great.
Alie Churchill It’s not so great for parents with young kids getting woken up, but they may enjoy it when they’re older. Other than that it’s fine, I don’t have a problem with it, it’s only a few nights a year.

‘Weather is rubbish’ – science By Steph Bell-Jenkins
Cambridge people have good reason to be fed up with the rain, with 2017 shaping up to be one of the wettest years on record. Waikato Regional Council water science team leader Bevan Jenkins said Ruakura was the closest long-term rainfall monitoring station to Cambridge and gave a representative picture of the weather here. “Rainfall at Ruakura for 2017 until the end of October was 1366mm, which means rainfall is already well ahead of the 1170mm annual average – and there are still two months left in the year,” he said. “If we got average rainfall in November and December, 2017 would end up being the fourth wettest year since records began at Ruakura in 1907.” A professional Cambridge counsellor, who was happy to speak anonymously, said the incessant rain was “definitely affecting people”.
“Clients are commenting on how sick they are of the rain,” she said. “And when there’s not a lot of sunshine and people aren’t getting outside as much they’re not getting as much vitamin D so that affects their health. I think people are more housebound – particularly elderly people who don’t want to be out battling the elements – and if they do go out it’s more of a hassle
because it’s wet. “Some people are starting to move into the lower end of depression and that’s affecting their families and rippling out into work situations.” She said the impact on farmers had been particularly noticeable. Roto-o-Rangi dairy farmer Marc Gascoigne, who has recently become a facilitator for the Rural Support Trust, said
constant rain through winter and spring had been “horrible” for farmers. “The rain was just relentless and there was never more than a few dry days to let the ground recover,” he said. Mr Gascoigne encouraged farmers to seek help from the Rural Support Trust if they needed it. Visit www.rural-support. org.nz or call 0800 787 254.
Rain getting you down?
Progress to Health’s Waikato team, which supports individuals with mental health needs, has the following advice: • Have an activity that is for inside only, like watching your favourite movie or cooking a delicious meal. • Make sure you have as much light as possible. Have the curtains open and the lights on. • Take any chance to get outside into the fresh air when it stops raining, even if it’s only for two minutes. If there’s any sunshine take the opportunity to be in it because even the smallest amount will make a difference.
Poolwatch
A resolution is in sight that might finally see the opening of the Cambridge pool. Having given up hope of the water table dropping, GoWaipa called in the BCD Group, who installed the Piezometers to see if there was any way the pool could be drained safely with the water table at its current level. After soil samples were taken, the all-clear was given to drain and clean the pool. It was cleaned on Tuesday and GoWaipa CEO Matt Horne said he was cautiously optimistic that the pool would be up and running in the very near future. Once the pool has been filled again on Friday, electricians will test the plant, making sure both the pump and the heating are operational after six months of disuse. If the pump and elements are working, it will then be a question of testing samples from the pool to ensure it is safe to swim in. While there is no set date for re-opening, all going well the pool should be open for swimmers soon. We will keep you updated, alternatively you can check out the GoWaipa website or Facebook page. Labour Day’s St Andrew’s Church fair was another victim of one of the soggiest years on record.
Nearly there for Anna
The finish line is in sight for Cambridge’s Anna Saxton, as she enters the final week of a singing competition in Los Angeles. If successful, Anna will come out ahead of 15 other singers to secure a recording contract with Universal Music. Proud mother Denise and Anna’s aunty Marie are flying over for the finale, to be held at the Belasco Theatre in LA, the venue of American Idol, next Wednesday. Along with the competition is the added pressure of a film crew, following contestants’ every move for a reality TV show. Having the chance to rub shoulders with the who’s who of the music industry will no doubt change the course of Anna’s life, and regardless of what happens this will be an experience she will never forget.

FRIDAY NOVEMBER 10, 2017
5km paint spill marks road Waipa District Council has decided not to clean up a five-kilometre paint spill stretching the entire length of Shakespeare St because it would cost tens of thousands of dollars. The spill happened around lunchtime on Friday when two distinct trails of white, water-based paint leaked onto the road from a private trailer owner by a painter-decorator. “It was completely unintentional,” said Waipa District Council contracts engineer Jason O’Dea. The driver of the trailer contacted council as soon as he realised what had happened and offered to do whatever he could to help. “He was mortified and did the right thing.” The council assessed the spill on Friday and decided not to clean it up because it would have cost “tens of thousands of dollars”. “The paint spill covered an area of about five kilometres, traversing a number of intersections,” Mr O’Dea said. “To clean that up, we would have been required to bring in extensive traffic control, closing lanes in sections at a time. And ideally, we
would have needed to do that on a Friday afternoon, potentially causing huge traffic disruption to Cambridge at extremely short notice. “We were also concerned that using high-pressure blasting to clean up the paint would have damaged the road surface, creating further problems.” The council reassessed the situation on Monday morning, trial cleaning a small section of the road, but stuck with its original decision to let the paint wear off over time. “It’s not ideal, but on balance we don’t believe this unintentional spill warrants spending tens of thousands of dollars on something that will eventually disappear,” Mr O’Dea said. “We’re trying to be pragmatic and sensible and we think this is the right approach. Further, we wouldn’t want to discourage anyone else from reporting an incident if it was perceived they would be landed with excessive costs as a result of being honest and forthcoming.” He said there was no environmental impact from the spill, as the road was warm and dry on Friday and the paint dried in less than an hour.
Boomerang Bags on way After great success with their fruit and vegetable bags, Plastic Bag Free Cambridge have their eye on creating a Boomerang Bag initiative in the town. The group aims to have 50 tote bags ready for the start of December, strategically placed to allow shoppers to borrow them to do their shopping and then return them later, hence the name. The bags will be made from clean, recycled material, without corporate or inappropriate logos. The only logo the bags will be sporting is a Boomerang Bags Cambridge one, screen printed and sewn onto the bags. The group is calling for volunteers to help sew the bags, and is also seeking donations of
fabric, sheets and clothing. And if you are not keen on sewing, you can still help out by cutting fabric and handles to make bag kits that can be sewn up. They also need people to turn handles, cut squares, screen print, iron and thread drawstrings. Plastic Bag Free Cambridge founder Sam Brydon said she expects that some of the bags will not ‘boomerang’ back to the depositories, however the scheme has been highly successful in other towns despite the natural attrition that will occur. Check out Plastic Bag Free Cambridge’s Facebook page to see how you can get involved.

YES for smoothie creators By Sophie Iremonger
It’s been a year of growth for the Zalamero Eureka Smoothies team, blooming from an initial concept in the classroom to a full-blown bottled smoothie business now stocking stores and cafes, and an enterprise award under their belt. And, in recent weeks, the team
had to redesign some aspects of their branding due to a minor legal dispute – although they can’t talk about that. The group of Year 13 students from Eureka’s Westmount School, near Matangi, entered this year’s WaikatoKing Country Young Enterprise Scheme (YES) – an experiential business
programme which supports students to set up and operate their own business. Running throughout the year with Dragon’sDen like events, it all wrapped up with the Waikato-King Country YES Annual Awards night – held last week – where the Zalamero team took home the Supreme
Regional Award out of more than 200 senior students. In addition to representing the region at the National Awards in Wellington in December, they won the Excellence in Communications Award and were each granted $1000 Massey University scholarships and $350 cash. “We’ve worked hard this year to get to this point, so it was great to get the reward, but it’s about the journey too, we’ve had
some pretty big things we’ve had to overcome,” said McKenzie Clare, Zalamero CEO. The “Berry Berzerk” Zalamero Eureka Smoothies were already sold at Rouge Cafe Cambridge and are now stocked at The Olde Creamery Café, in Kaipaki, and Farro Fresh supermarkets in Auckland. They plan to work with Foodstuffs in the new year to get the drink on local
supermarket shelves. The Zalamero team, which also includes Yohani Simpkin, Jethro Malcolm and Beatrice Judd, recommend that students thinking about trying the Young Enterprise Scheme just “go for it”. “Make the most of it, you can do any amount of theory or study, but to actually run a business in real life, you’ll probably learn more from that than anything else.”

Moxon Centre blessed
Just before sunrise recently, a group of dignitaries, guests and future residents gathered for the blessing of the new Moxon Centre behind St Andrew’s church. Following a karakia,
two clergy walked each of the three floors in the centre during the ceremony, blessing each room with holy water and a special prayer to match the function of each space. The $14 million facility
will provide independent living apartments as well as rest-home and hospital-level care. There are 11 independent living apartments on the top floor, with the middle floor comprising of two clusters of 12 residents, each with a single room and ensuite. The bottom floor includes communal living spaces, a hair salon, an industrial kitchen and dining room. Former Archbishop of New Zealand, Sir David Moxon, for whom the building was named, was one of the clergy undertaking the blessing. He likened the facility to a little seed, planted in the ground with branches that can become home to many birds. “A large tree where people can come and nest and stay and enjoy life’s last quarter,” Sir David said. The centre is ideally placed to allow residents to interact with the town and the sacred space of St Andrew’s, he added. Board Chair of the not-for-profit Selwyn Trust, Dr Kay Hawk, said it was the unlikely
that the trust will build something on this scale again. Now a registered Community House Provider in Auckland, the Selwyn Trust has taken responsibility for more than 1400 social houses for older people in that region, she said. They have also partnered with an Australian company to launch Inviga, a system where the elderly are connected with health care professionals and support through ‘tele-healthcare’. Basic medical tests, such as diabetes and blood pressure checks, can be done at home, with the results transmitted to a nurse who will check on the patient every day. “It means they can stay in their own home for longer,” Dr Hawk said. It will also enable the trust to care for more people, because not having to purchase land gives them greater flexibility, she added. “We’re changing,” she said, with a smile. The Moxon Centre will have its official opening on December 1.
Student wins at Arias St Peter’s School Year 12 student Victoria Hos has won several awards at one of Australasia’s most prestigious singing competitions. Victoria, 17, won the 16-18 age group overall at the New Zealand Aria Singing Awards in Rotorua, and placed 1st in the Folk/ Traditional section. She also placed 2nd for Own Selection, and 2nd for Sacred/Oratorio. It was her first time competing against other people from all over the North Island. She says a lot of extra had to be put in before the event, especially for her German and Latin pieces. “I find it easier to sing than speak, and it’s pretty easy once you know the main sounds for each language,” she said. Many previous winners have forged careers in the opera world in New Zealand and overseas. Victoria now sings in the New Zealand Secondary School Choir, and is also heavily involved as a singer and instrumentalist in the St Peter’s Performing Arts Programme. Her Grade 8 voice exam is

Festive acts of kindness By Steph Bell-Jenkins
Children can have creative fun while spreading Christmas cheer this December thanks to local organisation Act of Kindness (AOK). Launched by Cambridge mother Rebecca Broadbent in June, the service connects Waipa people with family-friendly volunteer work. Rebecca is looking
for 60 children to make 120 Christmas cards for children who will be spending some of the festive season in Waikato Hospital, and for young people being supported by Women’s Refuge. “We’re aiming to brighten their day and let them know we’re thinking of them,” she said. “We also hope that it will raise awareness among our kids that Christmas can look
very different for lots of people.” Two card-making sessions – 10am-11am and 11am-12pm – will run on Saturday, December 2 at the Cambridge Scout Hall at 1 Maclean St. “It should be super fun and festive and everyone is welcome, you just need to register for the event,” Rebecca said. “Spaces are limited so get in quickly.” Rebecca is grateful to the Cambridge Warehouse for generously

donating card-making supplies, including 600 coloured pens and pencils. Meanwhile, AOK’s first volunteer event is set to run tomorrow at Little Waipa Reserve, where 10 families will be helping Waikato River Trails clear weeds to beautify a local wetland. AOK also launched a “cot refresh” project on October 31, allowing families to pick up a wooden doll’s cot, give it a new coat of paint, add blankets and perhaps a soft toy or two, and deliver it back to a local foster family for distribution to Waikato children in need. Thirty families are now registered with AOK and Rebecca is always keen to hear from new volunteers. “Once you’re registered we tell you about our upcoming projects, you choose whether it’s a good fit for your family,” she said. “We’re also keen to hear from families who have a particular volunteer

Thumbs up for Lifeskills It’s a Kaivolution
Continued from page 1 By Steph Bell-Jenkins
Cambridge Lifeskills manager Sandy Wesford puts her hand over her heart in a gesture of genuine appreciation as she talks about a recent donation of $87.20 to her organisation. The money came from two budding Cambridge Middle School businesswomen, Taryn Cockerton (12) and Kayley Smith (11), who spent last term learning entrepreneurial skills with their Room 12 classmates. The students applied their newfound knowledge to a class gala, where their
chocolate toss game raised the most money. “And they decided that they wanted the money to go to Cambridge Lifeskills because they knew of people who had been helped by the service and they wanted to pay forward the money so that other kids might have the same opportunity,” Sandy said. Celebrating its 25th birthday this year, Cambridge Lifeskills offers free counselling services to local children aged 5-15 and their families, and is funded entirely by grants and donations. “I said to the girls how amazing it was and how it was probably the thing that
had meant the most to me in the whole term, because what we’re attempting to do at Cambridge Lifeskills is to let kids know we’re here, and that it’s okay to ask for help,” Sandy said, adding that their awareness of the organisation, and their desire to help others, was “heartwarming” evidence of a recent community awareness shift. “Having the community get on board and take some ownership, even in small ways like this, is so encouraging, because small ways lead to bigger ways,” she said. “It was just really exciting to know these girls were thinking that way.”
The call is out for businesses in Cambridge to join the Kaivolution initiative, distributing food from their shops and eateries that isn’t good enough to sell but is still good enough to eat, giving it to people in need. Every day, significant amounts of food is being needlessly wasted and could be collected and redistributed to community organisations. That’s where Kaivolution comes in. Since its launch in 2014, the initiative has redistributed more than 325,000kg of food to the Waikato community.

Beware of scammers, police urge Supplied by Cambridge Police Police receive reports every day from people who have been scammed, or who are reporting an online scam they’ve seen. People think that it’s only the naive who are affected by scams. That’s untrue and it shows in the scam loss numbers. Online scams can be sophisticated and well planned. Police receive scam reports from people of all ages and backgrounds. Unfortunately, due to the nature of these scams it is often very difficult, and at times impossible, to track down the people responsible. The best protection is to be aware of common online scams and to educate others. There are many other types of scams out there such as Government grant scams, PC tech scams, email phishing
scams, fake invoice scams, romance scams, Facebook trading scams, investment scams, webcam blackmail and sextortion just to name a few. If you want more information on what these scams involve, please visit www.netsafe.org.nz. Thing to remember: 1. Anything to do with Western Union or Moneygram is likely to be a scam. Scammers frequently use these companies because money is transferred instantly and is untraceable. 2. Legitimate companies (Microsoft, NZ Government, banks etc) will NOT call you directly to say you have a problem with your computer or offer you a refund. Hang up the phone and call the company back using their main number (not the number given by the
scammer) to make enquires. 3. Scammers can obtain personal information about you to make them seem more believable and often use scare tactics (e.g. you will be deported or arrested) to make you act quickly. Report any scams to Police or NETSAFE PHONE: 0508 NETSAFE (0508 638 723) EMAIL: help@netsafe.org.nz ONLINE FORM: www.netsafe.org.nz/report For more information on scams please visit the Netsafe website: www.netsafe.org.nz.

What are some kinds of managed funds?
Medical: 37
KiwiSaver
Accidents: 8
Unit Trust
Superannuation Funds
What are the benefits of using a managed fund? - You can purchase more investments (a little bit of each one), giving you diversification. - Can access a broad range of investments - Can make regular investments
How does your money increase in value? Invest $1,000 Get 1,000 units at $1.00 each (unit price)
As the value of the underlying investments changes, the unit price will change based on those values. This includes changes in the investment value as well as any income from the investments. If the investments increase in value, this could go up to $1.10 – a 10% increase in value. But the investments could fall in value – to $0.90 – a 10% fall in value. You should be able to see your unit price easily on the fund manager’s website, and with modern fund managers, you should be able to log in and see the value of your investments. It is important to understand what you are investing in and the risk of those investments.
What are the fees?
The fund manager is paid a fee for making investment decisions and administration. If you have an adviser, they might be paid a ‘trail commission’ (0.10% - 0.50%) out of the fund managers fees. There might be a buy/sell margin that is paid when shares or bonds are purchased (this is less common today). There might be a performance fee, paid to the investment manager if the performance is higher than a pre-set level. Some old fashioned funds might have entry and/or exit fees. (Moneyworks doesn’t use these investments with our clients).
How do you get your money out?
You advise the fund manager that you want to withdraw your money. It is generally available within a few working days (unless it is in KiwiSaver).

Community Board update
A mighty Totara has fallen. I am referring to the recent passing of previous Cambridge Community Board member, Richard Wright who served on the Board between 2007 and 2016. Richard was an absolute stalwart of Cambridge and speaking to people, also the other communities Richard, Margaret and their children lived in. Some of the many ways Richard was involved and helped people in Cambridge were through his involvement in the following organisations and committees. Cambridge Chamber of Commerce, Retail Committee, I-Site, Cambridge Safer Community Charitable Trust, Cambridge Tree Trust, Cambridge Social Services Committee, Cambridge Landscape Reserve Committee, Cambridge Waste Water Treatment Plant Advisory Board, Le Quesnoy Sister City Committee, ANZAC and Armistice Day Committees, part of the 2010 Rowing World Cup organising, and many people will vouch, so much more. A selfless man who always did the right thing at the right time for the right reason. Rest in peace, Richard, as our thoughts and prayers are also with the Wright family, kia kaha ngā whānau. This Sunday, 12th November at 9.45am on the Town Hall Piazza, we welcome you to come and commemorate Armistice Day being held on Remembrance Sunday. It is a time not to remember a single campaign, but all campaigns through both world wars and conflicts since, where New Zealand

Farewell to Richard ‘Rick’ Wright
The hallmark of a good send-off is that those attending leave knowing the departed individual with renewed understanding and delight. By Viv Posselt
That would have been the case in spades for the hundreds of people who packed into Lake Karapiro’s Don Rowlands Centre on Monday to farewell Richard Wright.

Fantastic night of fireworks
The Mighty River Domain played host to around five thousand people on Saturday as families gathered at Lake Karapiro for a night of Guy Fawkes celebrations. It was another ripper turn out this year for the Cambridge Real Estate Family Fireworks event, where a massive professional pyrotechnics display lit up the lake. Organisers were nervous as torrential rain poured down throughout the day on Saturday, but a clearing in the sky around 4pm made way for a beautiful night of fireworks, accompanied by a raft of family entertainment, including rock climbing walls, bouncy castles, face painting and all sorts of delicious foods.“It was an absolutely brilliant night with a fantastic turn out, especially considering the weather earlier in the day,” said the Fireworks Coordinators Paula and Hannah, from the Cambridge East School
PTA. “The Fireworks display was even better than last year. We had great support from the 17 community groups involved in the event.” Though the final count is not yet available, the event raised a sizeable number of proceeds to go towards the development of outdoor facilities at Cambridge East School.

BMXer back from the States By Sophie Iremonger
A Cambridge BMXer raising in the ranks of the professional scene has just touched down in New Zealand after a whirlwind trip in the United States. It was Josh de Reus’ fourth trip to America with Premium BMX, a fully paid-for working holiday where the trickster pulls of stunts and street riding for the brand’s promotional videos. During the latest trip, this time to San Francisco, Josh signed up with a more prestigious branch of the company, Haro BMX, and got a new bike in the process. “I’m pretty lucky really, I never thought I would be able to go and travel around the world doing this,” said Josh.
It wasn’t exactly a cruisy trip for the 24-year-old, day-in day-out de Reus was out with a cameraman filming his best stunts and tricks at spots throughout the Bay area – including the infamous UC Berkley campus – jumping stairs, grinding handrails, pulling off tricks, and thankfully without sustaining any injuries in the process. “It was just work the whole time really, like literally wake up, get in the car, and the filmer had already planned all the spots we were going to,” Josh explained. “It was pretty fun, pretty tiring as well, just riding every day and trying to film the best stuff you can do.” When he first arrived for the ten-day trip, the air was still smoky from recent fires in the area.
“It was pretty lucky that we actually the most important thing. It’s just a were able to do anything with all good time at the end of the day.” those fires… I’m not sure how close we actually got but when we first got there we couldn’t see anything, it was smoked out in one area because another fire had just started… it was pretty hectic,” Josh said. Whilst he enjoyed filming for the first time with prestigious cameraman Christian Rigal, Josh was happy to come home on Thursday last week. “I always look forward to coming home, we have nicer food here,” he laughed. For now, de Reus will continue street riding and filming stunts to create content for the BMX brand, and in February he’ll be heading back over to the States once again. With so many young BMX riders in Cambridge, for those hoping to get into professional street stunt work, de Reus advised, “If you really want to make something of it, just ride your bike a lot and have fun, and see where it goes… I got lucky, I just rode every day. Josh de Reus is back in town. “You’ve got to just make it fun, that’s

Shoulder Pain PHYSIOTHERAPIST MHSC (Hons), BPHTY, PGDIP (Sports Medicine)
Craig Newlands, Director Shoulder pain is a common and disabling complaint. Around 70% of people experience shoulder pain at some stage in their lifetime. The prevalence of shoulder pain increases as we age with approximately one in three adults over 65 years of age currently having shoulder pain. Recovery from this can be slow and recurrence of symptoms is frequent. The most common cause of shoulder pain is rotator cuff related pain. Research has shown that a graduated exercise programme for most problems of the rotator cuff is as effective as surgery and a fraction of the cost. A physiotherapy led exercise programme is as effective as surgery for sub acromial impingement syndrome at 1,2,4 and 5-year follow-ups. Exercise significantly reduces the need for surgery (up to 80%) in this condition. There are many different types of exercise programmes. Your Physiotherapist at Body Performance Clinic can help you find one that is appropriate for you. On average rehabilitation programmes will take 12 weeks, although some people take a little longer and others respond more quickly. The majority of people manage very well with a carefully constructed exercise programme, however for those not coping with the pain there are additional treatments such as medications or injections. Your Physiotherapist can work with your doctor if these are required. Come and see us at Body Performance Clinic for an assessment and exercise programme if you are experiencing shoulder pain.

Young Cambridge footballers, Max Kelk and Luke O’Brien returned home last Monday undefeated from their recent tour to Australia. The boys, team-mates in this year’s 11th grade Demons team at Cambridge Football Club, were selected from their attendance at the Ricki Herbert Football Academy in Cambridge. They played along-side boys from Ricki’s other academies in Auckland, Taupo and Tauranga. Max and Luke met most of their team mates for the first time at the departure lounge at Auckland airport. The team gelled together well and played quality football, out-classing many big city clubs whilst forming new friendships along the way. They even beat the Victorian state age champions Fawkner 5-1 in an evening game after having trained at
and toured the facilities of A-League team Melbourne City! The boys played two friendlies in Melbourne before heading to regional Shepparton, for the AFS International tournament. The U11 age group had by far the biggest number of teams and the tournament, now in its 10th year, is the largest junior football tournament in Victoria. In sunny temperatures reaching 28 degrees over the weekend, the players had to be mindful of sunscreen and to stay hydrated. The Ricki Herbert Football Academy team won all its pool games and averted a penalty shoot-out in the semis - scoring in the final seconds of an extended injury time. The final, played against Victorian side Sydenham was won 1-0 and ecstatic celebrations by coaches, parents and players Luke O’Brien (left) and Max Kelk (right). ensued.
Third place for Nick Ross in BNT V8s opener Cambridge driver Nick Ross (pictured bottom right) has come away from the opening round of the BNT V8s sitting third in the championship in what was a very trying weekend for all competitors with wet weather lashing the circuit for most of the event. Ross qualified his Total Lubricants Nissan Altima in position three for race one and pole position for race two. The opening race of the weekend saw Ross go on to finish third before a disappointing 17th place in race two due to an electronic throttle issue that the car developed while he was leading. Recovering from the
frustrating earlier finish, Ross went on to claim second place in the final race. “We were happy with the weekend, the weather and track conditions on Saturday were horrendous, we were all lucky to get through unscathed,” said Ross. “A little bit gutted that in the second race the electronic throttle decided to give up while we were leading the race. The engine was running, I just had no power to accelerate. We came into the pits and the team did their magic and fixed it and we were off again.” “The pace of the car is awesome, that one little gremlin was annoying,
but overall there were plenty of positives for the weekend, and I’m happy to be sitting in third place in the championship as we head to Taupo for round two.”

Junior flying champion Cambridge’s Zac Williams has taken out Waikato Aviation’s Junior Champion title for 2017. Competing at Waikato Aviation’s Aviators’ Club’s annual flying competition, Williams gained six first places over two days of contests to land the Foote Cup. Designed to replicate actual flying situations,
the competition tests pilots’ specific skills through circuits, landings, flying with, and without, instruments and simulated forced landings without engine power. Circuits require precise landing skills as pilots attempt to land on a target within a grid. Williams grew up in Auckland and would
spend weekends watching the planes land at Auckland airport with his grandmother. It sparked his interest in flying. “Humans weren’t made to fly so it’s a massive thrill to be up in the air,” said Williams. Williams is a member of the Vantage Windows and Doors National Sprint Cycling Team and
Cambridge pairs snooker tournament
has been flight training part time with Waikato Aviation since 2015. He recently gained his Private Pilot Licence. “There will come a time when professional cycling is not an option and that is when my flying career will kick in,” said Williams. “In the meantime, I will keep cycling and in my spare time work to-wards my Commercial Pilot Licence.” Williams is currently doing night flying training.

Making models is a feature. If you have never made a plastic model before, you can buy and make one for just $3 (which
is about 20% of the full price) under the tutelage of expert model makers. You can also ‘drive’ a Radio Control tank in a miniature World War Two town. There are 20 such activities for kids of all ages, 12 of which are free and the rest ranging from $1 to $5 for the Airsoft guns. Kids of all ages are welcome to have a go, the trench battle proving very popular with surprisingly large ‘kids’ in previous years. Once seven of the 20 activities have been completed, attendees can go to the Info Desk and receive a bade of their choice, from a tank badge, Navy badge or Corporal stripes.

Remembering Cambrai On display and moving under their own power will be two World War Two tanks, the American made Stuart, and the British Valentine. Accompanying them will be the very large and impressive 1960s made British Abbot Self Propelled Gun. This caries a 105mm gun, that is able to shoot over 17 kilometres. These tanks are still in service today with the Indian Army. To keep it balanced, there is a German armoured car, the Sd.kfz.222, which sports a 20mm cannon. These were used on all fronts throughout the Second World War and frequently encountered by kiwi troops. On the Allied side, you will be able to see a Stag Hound Armoured Car. This is the 100th Anniversary of the Battle of Cambrai, fought in November 1917. It was a landmark battle in that it involved over 500 tanks for the first time. This commemoration is the reason for the focus on tanks this year at Armistice in Cambridge.

Cambridge sailor joins Spithill By Sophie Iremonger
It was a race to remember for Cambridge sailor Micah Wilkinson at the 2017 Coastal Classic yacht race, winning the event as part of the Frank Racing team and racing alongside sailing legend Jimmy Spithill. Aiming to put together an elite racing crew, having won the event for 7 of the last 8 years, Simon Hull of Frank Racing
invited the Team Oracle USA skipper to join their boat this year, and invited Wilkinson along in the process. He’d met Wilkinson earlier this year when the 21-year-old finished second in the Youth America’s Cup. “I got to know Simon Hull during that time, and he invited me on board for the Coastal Classic,” explained Wilkinson, who will be doing a few more races with Hull this season.
The Frank Racing team on their way to winning the Coastal Classic
“And he somehow manged to convince Jimmy to come sailing as well, it was awesome.” Spithill was the boat’s tactician for the race while Wilkinson was the bowman, and Hull the skipper. “It was my first proper race on a big boat like that, there was 8 people on board, so it was a pretty steep learning curve,” said Wilkinson. Racing from Auckland to the Bay of Islands, a steady breeze
had carried the Frank Racing crew for the first 100 nautical miles of the race, until they hit a notorious dead-wind zone just off Cape Brett. The chances of the team beating the race record of 5 hours 13 minutes set by Frank Racing in 2015 was slipping away. Then, Wilkinson and Spithill detected a small amount of wind, and turned the boat in a jibe manoeuvre to help catch the breeze. They soon picked up speed and drifted their way into Russell and crossed the finish line with a time of 6 hours, 4 minutes and 44 seconds. “We kind of both spotted it (the breeze), mostly Jimmy, I can’t take too much credit for it,” a modest Micah explained. “(Spithill) is just so level headed, he’s done so much sailing that nothing seems to bother him at all. The biggest learning for me watching him was that nothing phases him, he doesn’t rush into anything, he doesn’t make decisions based on emotions, he’s very factual and level headed… He’s an awesome guy. “It was really cool to be invited to take part, I’d like to say a huge thank you to Simon Hull and the Frank Racing team for the opportunity… I’d love to do it again and make it two for two next year.”

Floating in a float pod
I must say I was excited to get this opportunity to try Loulous’ new float pod – I’m always keen to try new things and getting some time to myself for an hour was the icing on the cake. First you shower and then hop into the aptlynamed Dream Pod.
Coloured LED lights inside the pod give it a beautiful ambiance and when you turn the main light out it feels like you’re in another world. There are 5ookg of Epsom salts dissolved into 1000 litres of tepid water, making it more buoyant than the Dead
Sea. The sensation itself was not exactly like floating on water – more like what it must feel like to be weightless in space. I was in two minds about shutting the lid or not – either is fine, and apparently some people don’t shut it because they don’t fancy it. There’s no
catch on the lid, though, and it’s easy to open, so after a bit of to-ing and fro-ing I opted to close it. You can turn the LED lights off, but I left them on because it was a bit confronting with the lid shut and the lights off. What I noticed is all the areas where I hold onto tension, such as my shoulders, and I was able to feel that tension releasing in the pod. It seemed to be over in a flash, because I had fallen
asleep, but I woke up feeling very relaxed and calm. An unexpected bonus was that I noticed vastly improved sleep over the next few nights, no doubt a side-effect of the magnesium from the Epsom salts being absorbed through my skin. And after I hopped out and showered and changed, I walked through to the hair salon and had my hair blow waved. Pretty much heaven, and I felt like a
million bucks at the end of it (a nice change from the $6.50 I felt when I went in). The verdict: You need three sessions to really get the full benefits from floating, Loulous’ owner Angelique Gellert said, and I think she’s right. By the third time you will be straight into it and probably won’t spend time swooshing your hair backwards and forwards pretending to be a mermaid. I would definitely go again. Claire Castle

Discover Morrinsville …just 29 mins from Cambridge
Lasers and fireworks light up the sky over Morrinsville More than 5000 people turned out at the Morrinsville Recreation Ground on Saturday for the much-anticipated Diprose Miller Fireworks Extravaganza event, happy it would go ahead as planned after the day’s wet weather had threatened cancellation. Morrinsville Promotion Manager Cathy Balvert had received around 200 phone calls on Saturday and many Facebook messages
from concerned families wondering whether it would go ahead. And go ahead it did. At 4pm the weather cleared and the gates opened around 5.30pm to many families with children and picnics in tow. This year it wasn’t the usual fireworks show, this one incorporated a laser light show amidst the crackling colours in the night sky. In addition to the Karapiro fireworks event, this “Extravaganza” was one of the few fireworks displays left in the region, and possibly the only one that included a laser light component.
Operated by Ben Lawrence from Soulstorm Lasers, the light show and the fireworks display (run by Van Tiel Pyrotechnics) were choreographed to music and incorporated smoke to help reflect the lasers. Musical entertainers on the night included Captain Jelly, Flames of Plenty, Freelunch Stilt Walkers and bands, Sonder and the Tim Armstrong Band. Soulstorm Lasers will be returning to the event next year. Photo by Marcel Thiele

QUALIFIED ARBORIST CREW:
Submitted by the Cambridge Bridge Club The clubroom at Cambridge had a happy buzz as players from across Waikato assembled to take part in the Babich pairs tournament. This annual national event sponsored by Babich wines is played simultaneously in over fifty clubs across New Zealand raising funds for New Zealand Bridge Foundation The evening started light-heartedly with pizza and wine being enjoyed by many of the participants. The players then settled down to a serious, but enjoyable evening competing against the rest of the country. The evening ended with a Cambridge junior pair, Calum and Eunice playing North South, winning the local heat with a score of 65.62 per cent. Lynette Morgan and Ian Bond open players from Matamata took the top East West place with 63.60 per cent, closely followed by Cambridge pairs Kate McFadyen and Gwen Lobb, Clare Coles and Kevin Whyte. The most interesting aspect of the Babich Pairs is being able to compare your results to everyone playing the same boards across New Zealand. In the National placings, against 1018 pairs, Kate and Gwen took top EW honours coming in at 24th place, closely followed by Clare and Kevin in 39th place. Calum and Eunice remained the top NS pair coming in 71st.

Supplied by Cambridge Golf Club We held a Christmas Tournament on Sunday, for which the weather gods obliged. Sixty-two players teed off, half being from other clubs. Hitomi Tamura from Riverside played well in the conditions to score 72 off the stick, she was 9 shots better than the next player, Jill Morgan from Cambridge. Other local players to feature were Sian Stevenson, Nancy Masters, Leigh Needham, Marilyn Harrison, Shelley Scrafton, Liz Skiffington, Elizabeth Wallace, Valerie Smith, all scoring below or to their handicap. The fun continued afterwards when we held a “shootout” on the 18th green. 8 players were drawn to participate. Throwing their ball over their shoulder backwards to decide the order of putting, Nancy Masters was the furthermost from the pin, so she had to putt first. From the back of the green, a masterful downhill putt fell into the hole. So, then everyone else had to try and get their putts in. Nobody succeeded, so Nancy won $100. Another playoff resulted in Leslea Haggie slotting a long putt and being proclaimed runner-up. Last Wednesday, the annual shootout resulted in Lesley Wilkinson and Leslea McGovern being the successful winners on the day Saturday players still have their strokeplay competition to play and Wednesday players will be deciding which Christmas Tournaments to participate in.
Men’s golf report
Supplied by Cambridge Golf Club A large field of 47 Vet golfers enjoyed perfect conditions for playing golf on Tuesday October 31. The standout player of the day was Mick Callender who blitzed the field, with a brilliant score of 49 stableford points. In doing so, he won the “Wilkinson Challenge” by scoring 2 points or better on every hole. Other players to score well were Geoff Walker and Kevin Turnbull, both scoring 42 points, John Francis with 41 points and Bill Brocklebank, Peter Beetham and John Nesbit all scoring 40 stableford points. Linley Wallace was the best Lady scoring 42 points, well clear of Valerie Smith, Ann Thompson and Mary Hughes. There were two players who scored twos Karen Bodle and Bruce Moncur both on “Lands End”. The longest putt on the 18th was won by Brian Cooper and Linley Wallace added to her prizes for the day, by playing the perfect 3 shots on the 9th fairway to hole- out.

The 111 Report Continued from page 10 Sunday November 5 Four young boys were seen around the back of Leamington Medical Centre on Sunday afternoon. One of the boys was seen throwing a lit firework inside the premises. There was minimal damage inside the medical centre. The young boy was arrested by Police for wilful damage. Monday November 6 At 7am a victim left her vehicle running outside Hautapu Country Store in Tamahere while she ran inside to purchase some items. Whilst inside an unknown male has stolen the vehicle (just prior to this incident the male had crashed another vehicle nearby he had stolen on 04/11 from Pak N Save in Hamilton using the same motive). This vehicle was then involved in a Police pursuit on SH1 with the offending vehicle refusing to stop and attempting to ram the Police car. The stolen vehicle was located at an address in Rotorua and Police dogs tracked the offender who was hiding inside a wardrobe. A house truck was wilfully damaged by having eggs thrown at it whilst parked at Bobs Landing on Tirau Road. A dark vehicle, possibly green similar to an old Nissan Patrol was seen speeding away. Tuesday November 7 A vehicle was stolen from Vogel Street and used to commit two commercial burglaries at Spark and Vodafone on Victoria Street around 4am. Police are currently investigating these incidents. If anyone saw anything suspicious or has any information please contact Cambridge Police.

“Only the Brave” is based on a true story which is an emotional rollercoaster. In 2007 Arizona, Eric Marsh of the Prescott Fire Department is frustrated trying to fight forest fires. His operational suggestions are overruled from distant ‘Hotshot’ front-line crews, with bad results for his area. Marsh gets approval from the Mayor to organise a certified municipal Hotshot crew of their own, an unprecedented event. March needs new recruits to undergo the rigorous training and testing for this most dangerous fire-fighting duty. His new crew, including young wastrel, Brendan McDonough, meets the challenge and is hailed as the Granite Mountain Hotshots. All the men are changed by their experiences and the camaraderie forged in the fires. They are really put to the test in 2013 with the Yarnell Hill fire, which was the deadliest incident of any kind for U.S. firefighters since the September 11, 2001, attacks. It demanded effort and sacrifice that no-one could ignore.
