SPIRIT OF ORANGE FEBRUARY 17-23, 2022

All aboard!

There were plenty of smiles and a real picnic atmosphere in Matthews Park on Saturday afternoon for the return of the much-loved miniature railway’s public running day. The magnificent model steam engines were kept busy for hours carrying hundreds of children (and the young at heart) around the Orange Society of Model Engineers 5-inch gauge track.

It’s been another big week in Orange with lots going over the weekend in particular.

The Gnoo Blas Class Car Bike and Truck Show continues to attract a large crowd to the old Gnoo Blas Motor Racing Circuit and organisers tell me they have had great feedback from visitors over the weekend. It’s an event that really has the potential to grow and draw visitors to the region.

The Banjo Paterson Australian Bush Poetry is also in full swing. Even with the reduced program due to COVID, the festival events have been successful and we can look forward to 2023 when Orange will host the National Bush Poetry Performing Championships.

There are more Banjo-related events being held this weekend including Sunday's Rotary Market Day and a screening of the Australian cinema classic, The Man from Snowy River, which is of course based on the muchloved Paterson poem. The screening takes place in Robertson Park tomorrow night, but be sure to visit the Orange360 website for details on the remaining festival program.

briefly STADIUM APPROVAL ENDS TWO-YEAR BATTLE TO SAVE BLOOMFIELD TREES

Nurses rally seeking ratios for hospitals About 150 local nurses took part in a stop-work march around Robertson Park this week, rallying for better conditions and nurse-patient ratios in hospitals across the State.

With signs reading: “Ratios — It’s a Matter of Life or Death” and “Nurses Deserve a Better Deal”; they are seeking guaranteed nurse-patient ratios of one nurse for every three patients in emergency departments, and

one nurse to four patients in other wards, throughout NSW public hospitals.

The strike was declared illegal at the last minute by the Industrial Relations Commission with attempts by the State Government to dissuade the nurses from taking action obviously not convincing enough for many of the participants.

LORDS PLACE WORK WAITS FOR NO-ONE Roadworks wait for no man (or car) in the Colour City.

Contract road-crews hired to bitumen part of the roadside as part of the Lords Place refurbishment were recently left to deal with one parked car that had not been moved by its owner, despite inquiries with local businesses.

Undeterred, the contractors put four sets of dolly wheels under the vehicle’s front-and-rear tyres and then moved it out of the way, only just missing another parked in the process, with the vehicle eventually facing nose-in after the forced move so the roadworks could continue.

FEBRUARY 17-24, 2022

Two-year battle by environmental groups to stop construction of the proposed sports precinct at south Orange now seem doomed with recent approval for the first stage of the project.

Only a last-minute rescission motion that would need the signatures of at least three current councillors could now stop construction of the $25 million sports complex at Bloomfield from going ahead.

This follows a recent decision by the Western Regional Planning Panel to give planning approval for the proposed $25 million sports precinct alongside Sir Jack Brabham Park.

Orange Mayor and long-time project supporter, Councillor Jason Hamling was pleased that the green light has been given for the start of the project, which is being largely funded by the NSW Government.

“This is a huge project with major benefits for the community of Orange and the wider region,” Cr Hamling said.

“This is great news for the Orange community, and I’m delighted we’ve reached another milestone.

“There are further planning approvals still to be assessed when it comes to the details of the stadium design and plans for the athletics track, but this is the important milestone. The panel has approved the overall concept of a sports precinct in a parklands setting.”

Newly-elected Independent Councillor, Melanie McDonell, however, is the only councillor so far to commit to seeking a delay to the project until other sites for the sports precinct are reviewed.

Both Greens Councillor David Mallard, and independent, Steve Peterson, said that the horse has bolted on stopping the development, which will see the removal of hundreds of more mature trees at the natural vegetation area that has already seen hundreds of trees felled from already.

In submissions to the panel, medical staff from the nearby Bloomfield Health Precinct expressed concerns regarding traffic and access in emergencies if the 8500-capacity stadium is built on the decommissioned Ex-Services Golf Club site.

with DAVID DIXON

Slowly-deflating balloon of the “population explosion” Anyone else remember those dystopian science fiction films of the 1970s, Zero Population Growth, Soylent Green (“Soylent Green is people”), and Logan’s Run, where overcrowded societies adopted drastic measures — banning babies, anthropophagy, and limiting life-spans — to save the world from destruction?

My Ride - Shane Reddan

Well, the population time-bomb that was going to lead to — famine! wars! and a shortage of beer at Christmastime(!) — have now proven to be a bit of a fizzer.

I’ve had this 1960 pontiac Laurentian for about five or six years now.

I saw one similar at Eastern Creek and thought, I'd have to have one of those! But it probably took two years to find one.

Baby boomers going to school in the 1960s and 1970s might also recall being endlessly lectured to by social science teachers about the population explosion that was the global warming of those times — an existential threat to our survival that required urgent, direct, drastic, action, whether people liked it or not.

I like the lines of it and that it's something unique. You don't see too many of them as there weren't that many made. There might not be more than 20 in the entire country, I wouldn't think, they are that rare.

These were assembled in Australia, so they're right-hand drive in the factory, but they are an American car basically.

It gets along really well, it's very nice to drive, like floating on a lounge chair, just really smooth.

Groups like the World Bank and International Monetary Fund — led by super-serious Ivy-League wonks like Robert McNamara (fresh from sending-off tens of thousands of young Americans to the Vietnam War) — strong-armed Third World countries into introducing forced-sterilisation programs to “save” us from the population bomb.

Racist fears of western societies being “overwhelmed” by black and brown hordes necessitated action that meant that, well, if a few eggs were cracked, how else do you make an omelette?

Serious policy papers opposed foreign aid to African and Asian countries, as this would only encourage people to have families,

increasing the “problem”.

However, recent revelations that China last year had a drop in its number of citizens for the first time in decades, is another pin-prick in the slowly-deflating balloon of this “crisis”.

China of course, fully bought into this population bomb myth and introduced the “one-child policy” in 1979 to curb its burgeoning masses.

Eventually lifting the policy in 2015, a little too late, it proved to be a bomb, but one of demographic decline.

China now has an ageing workforce, millions of young men who will never find a mate as parents preferred male heirs, and a spoilt generation of “Little Emperors” quite happy to stay single and remain the continuing apple of their parents’ devoted eyes.

Of course, we now know that the best way to reduce population pressures on developing countries, is to lift their living standards. Once families start being rescued by economic development from the crushing poverty of slums and rural subsistence, they have less children as they no longer need them as a form of pension support as they get older.

Dozens of countries now have declining populations including Russia, Japan, Italy, Spain, and Poland where low birth rates have now seen governments introduce family-friendly policies to encourage women to have more babies.

While demographers are loathe to ever admit they are wrong, even they are now saying that the world’s population will level-off far lower and faster than they ever imagined.

Orange could have one of the State’s premier motor sport facilities; if plans for Orange’s old harness racing track come to fruition.

Moto GP plan a perfect welcome to Colour City

T

The Colour City could have one of the State’s premier motor sport facilities welcoming visitors to its eastern entrance; if plans for taking-on Orange’s old harness racing track on the Bathurst Road come to fruition. he alternative is just another new housing estate like so many other regional centres, Chip Howitt from Canobolas Motorcycle Club believes.

Books, he says, might not be judged by their covers, but country towns certainly are.

“First impressions matter, does Orange want a world-class motor racing facility as you enter town, or another housing estate?” Chip said.

The Club recently made a submission to Orange’s Draft Local Housing Strategy calling for the old harness racing club to be redeveloped into the “Orange International Moto Park”.

“The submission came from our petition calling for the track to be dedicated to motor sports,” Chip, part of a multi-club taskforce looking at the issue, said.

“Our city needs to protect all its existing recreational and sporting assets. The opposition to the new Sports Precinct and the Canobolas Mountain Bike trails highlights this,” his submission stated.

“The successful example of the Orange Kart Club operating at this site for over the past 50 years, points to a compatible if not comparable form of motorsport being successful in bringing similar benefits to the City.”

Refurbishment of the largely-derelict site would be a win all-round for the Colour City and its sports facilities, Chip believes, something that is long overdue.

“Council’s own consultants highlighted a number of issues affecting the trotting track for use under the housing strategy; it was listed as one of the ‘late-stage greenfields sites’,” Chip said.

“The report listed what was required in terms of visual abatement, water supply, proximity to the highway, being on the edge of town,” he said.

The Draft Strategy lists a number of constraints on the site for housing including: •h igh construction difficulties making the site unsuitable for servicing by existing infrastructure due to its elevation with a new sewer-pump station required; • s tormwater that would be required to

FEBRUARY 17-24, 2022

be detained on-site; • r equirement for a visual buffer to Orange crematorium and a visual and acoustic buffer to the Mitchell Highway • t he site’s location within the drinkingwater catchment, water-harvesting, and stormwater catchments.

Chip said that, Council’s aesthetic new welcome to town at the intersection of the northern distributor and highway, shows the importance of making a good first impression to vehicle traffic entering our eastern edge.

Recent funding for resurfacing the adjacent go-kart track shows the potential future of the area for all motosports, he added.

He said that the largely alreadydeveloped areas of the old harness racing track would make an ideal venue for a range of motor sport facilities.

“There’s potential for a go-kart track, what’s knowns as a ‘long-track’; with a very small deviation, we can have a dirt track, we can have speedway, junior and senior, and enduro grass track but, the big one for the kiddies and families is mini-khana,” he said.

With the COVID lockdowns showing the importance of a healthy lifestyle to our wellbeing, getting kids into sport early is vital, Chip said, with mini-khana the best way to introduce motor sports at an early age.

“Young children can come along with their families and learn about the sport, it’s about skill rather than speed,” he said.

He said that an offer from the State’s biggest mini-bike club at Blacktown to hold events at the track would be the perfect way for the facility to get maximum use.

“They’ve expressed an interest in coming up and running an event for us as a way to get a toehold; we’d provide the track, and they’d provide the officials and expertise to show us how to run such events,” he said.

He said that, if established, the park could become the Orange home for a range of motor sports and a genuine asset to the community.

“In our letter we describe it as a motor sport park, we could even host events for classic cars and classic bikes, everything to do with motor sports,” Chip said excitedly.

Charity golf day supp ng

OUR LOCAL PALLIATIVE CARE - JONATHAN ROE What began as a group of friends having a drink and a round of golf in memory of a lost mate; has quickly grown to become one of the premier events on the Central West golfing calendar.

The 18-hole two-person Ambrose tournament has $5000 worth of prizes up for grabs, novelty events (including “hitting a portaloo”), as well as the amazing opportunity to win a Ford Mustang!

The Al Gordon Memorial Golf Day, scheduled for Friday, March 11 is a now-annual fundraising tournament, held to honour the memory of keen local golfer, Al Gordon, who lost his battle with cancer six years ago.

“This year we are giving away a chance to win a Ford Mustang for a hole-in-one — that's a pretty unique thing out here!” said Michael.

Beginning in 2020 (and postponed due to COVID in 2021) the charity golf day has received overwhelming support from the community.

“That first one was something just to gauge the support behind it, but the community really rallied, and we had just shy of 120-people playing in it, which is basically a full tournament, so that was great,” said event coorganiser Michael Paddison.

“This is now the second year, officially, and we are now what we believe to be one of the premier tournaments in the Central West.”

And the response from local businesses willing to sponsor the event has also been nothing short of amazing, he said.

McGrath Real Estate, the Robin Hood Hotel, Orange Mitre 10, Canobolas Auto One, Connaughton Landscape solutions, Kiteley’s Roofing World, Choices Flooring, Empire Strength Co., and FC Concrete have all thrown their support behind the fundraiser.

“They’re the guys that have really got behind this and pushed it and drove it for us. They've either sponsored holes or donated money directly to the cause and it wouldn't be as big without them,” said Michael.

The entire proceeds from the Al Gordon Memorial Golf Day will be donated to Orange Palliative Care Services, a cause that has a special meaning for Al Gordon’s family.

“The work the palliative care team do is unbelievable,” said Al’s son, Brett.

“It takes a special kind of person to do that and, what they did for Dad and myself and my family, was unbelievable. We obviously went through a hard time, but they made it that little bit easier to get through it.”

While the money they raise is going to a serious cause, the golf day is about having a good time with friends, said Brett.

“Dad was always up for a laugh and a joke, and so it’s about having a good, fun day.

Getting together and remembering my Dad and raising what money we can for the amazing work of the palliative care team,” Brett said.

Registrations for the Al Gordon Memorial Golf Day can be made by calling the Wenty Pro Shop on 63614571.

...as president of the Gnoo Blas Classic Car Club where Denis’s real passion lay...

Ink in his blood, Denis was AN OLD-STYLE NEWSPAPERMAN - DAVID DIXON -

“They don’t put up statues of journalists, do they?” British Prime Minister, Boris Johnston, famously said on leaving the profession for politics.

If they did, however, they might create one to Orange institution and all-round Aussie larrikin, Denis Gregory.

But as the Gnoo Blas Classic Car, Bike and Truck Show held recently in Denis’s honour, and for whom he was the brainchild and organiser for years testifies, he was much more than just a journalist.

Denis was an old-style newspaperman who, as they used to say, had ink in his veins, actually starting as a printer at the Central Western Daily until a cadetship for journalism became available.

I first came upon Dennis by repute. He had recently left the Central Western Daily upon an ownership change when the new proprietor — a driven, prickly character named John Amarti — told him he was adding two or three days of general reporting to his fine work on his beloved weekly that he had run for years.

“You can go and get stuffed!” Denis told me later with a laugh, was his response, before walking out the door and becoming western NSW correspondent for a major Sunday paper at a time when newspapers still had a touch (believe it or not) of glamour and status.

He travelled the back-roads of western NSW for years as a not-so-young man, providing first-rate copy and pics for the country insert of the Sun-Herald for whom I was also a halfdecade contributor.

Scooping all the well-placed and highlypaid city correspondents for the torch route of the Sydney Olympics through rural Australia was one of his most famous successes.

column while still a printer at the Central Western Daily.

Not afraid to go out on his own, for five years in the late 1960s and early 1970s he was editor of the Orange News Pictorial, which he founded, and which was eventually sold to the then Central Western Daily owners, Western Newspapers Pty Ltd.

He also authored, along with friend and distinguished local photographer, Alf Manciagli, a series of coffee-table books varying from beautiful country homes of Australia and people and places in the Central Tablelands.

After his fall-out with Amarti, Dennis left Western Newspapers to write country stories for the Sydney Morning Herald and magazines including the Woman's Weekly, Country Style, and Australasian Post, and then became the country correspondent for the Sun-Herald for 12 years until 2000.

Journalists can be a prickly bunch, often acting with suspicion and resentment towards each other, fearful of being scooped, of having their boss call them in and point to a competitor’s work and asking: “why didn’t you have this?”

Never nasty and always honest, his work over the years was recognised with a number of State and national awards for writing and an Order of Australia Medal for his services to country journalism.

But Denis was always the most amenable and friendly of writers at those media events where members of our trade are broughttogether, often acting like unwilling members of a cult religion that are secretly ashamed of each other.

But Dennis always responded to any meeting with me regardless of the occasion, with a hearty “G’day mate, how are ya?” before he would openly discuss with candour his latest story and what he was up to.

He loved the game of journalism, of finding out everything he could for his readers, never concealing facts or relevant information as many do, in their efforts to remain in the good books of those in authority.

But it was as president of the Gnoo Blas Classic Car Club where Denis’s real passion lay. His first writing was a weekly motoring

...Never nasty and always honest, his work over the years was recognised with a number of State and national awards for writing...

While he had been responsible for organising Orange's two-day enduros for the motorcycle club, in later years would be best known as the president of the Gnoo Blas Classic Car Club — a true passion project for the one-time racing car driver.

The recent event at Brabham saw the “Denis Gregory trophy” presented as a perpetual award for “Car of the Show” in recognition of his work for the club and the sport.

He continued to write his weekly topical column of events around the district, called “Stop Press” for the Central Western Daily until shortly before his death and was even filing reports from his hospital bed.

Small trains, BIG fun in Matthews Park

There were plenty of smiling faces to be seen in Matthews Park on Saturday afternoon with the return of the Orange Society of Model Engineers’ public running day.

Like so many public activities, COVID restrictions have meant the Society has been unable to offer rides on the miniature railway for the past two years.

But on Saturday there was a real buzz to be felt in Matthews Park, with families spreading out picnic blankets and enjoying the mild late-summer afternoon, while children and the young at heart queued at the platform to board one of the Society’s impressive replica steam trains.

3:37 PM

“This is our first real day back,” said founding member, Barry Potter. “We did run one last month, but it was very quiet, so this is our first really busy day back again, which is really good to see.”

Money raised from the public running day’s go into the club's coffers to pay for insurance and maintenance of the 5-inch gauge track running through the park.

“Everybody enjoys it,” said Barry. “It has been a good thing for the public and then we get to enjoy the track and play “real trains” when the people aren't here!”

It was an old-style political rally not seen in the Colour City for years that saw environmentalist Kate Hook launch her independent candidacy for Calare in the upcoming Federal election.

B

anners, colour-coordinated t-shirts, and effusive speakers thrilled the 100-strong crowd as the candidate said that it was time for a new way of

holding the seat off the major parties over three elections.

At her launch in warm sunshine at Robertson Park with the slogan, “We can do better” Ms Hook sought to channel the achievements of long-time independent, former Prime TV News Chief, Peter Andren, who held the seat for more than a decade until his death in 2007.

Buoyed by the endorsements and crowd energy, Ms Hook told her backers: “It means a lot to get your support… This is an opportunity to make a real community candidacy.”

doing politics.

With the backing of Deputy Mayor of Orange, Councillor Gerald Power; Cr Melanie McDonell (who’s mum read out the sick councillor’s message of support); businessman Rob Campbell, and with at least one other Orange councillor in attendance, Ms Hook has also called on advice from veterans of Andren’s successful campaigns in wresting and

"The platform is, ‘we can do better’ and yes, we can. Kate will listen and touch the grassroots and build a movement for change and, as Melanie said, ‘we can do this’," Cr Power said.

"I am a mum of four kids who lives near Orange and was born and raised in a regional community and lived in this region for 18 years.

and people feel disconnected. I will be free to stand up and get things done,’’ Ms Hook told her supporters.

She criticised business as usual and said that now was the time to look to a better way of representing our communities in Canberra.

“Politics is not fit for purpose for getting things done, politics is not a game, and many people feel a sense of disconnect,” she added.

She said that the views and hopes of rural communities are: “too often lost in the party room,” something which Andren was able to circumvent as an independent.

"I genuinely want people to be heard in Canberra and people throughout the electorate are saying politics is not about them and not fit for purpose.’’

“Peter certainly set an example of being responsible to voters, the overwhelming theme is that we don’t feel represented… but you’ll be heard, because I’ll be listening,” she said.

‘’Things are not getting done and the community are not being represented

Up against Minister for Veterans' Affairs and Minister for Defence Personnel,

Andrew Gee, who has held the seat since 2016 and who previously held the State seat of Orange from 2011–2016, she isn’t under-estimating the task ahead.

“It’s going to be tough… I actually spent lots of the past 12 months trying to convince other people to run.

“But let’s have fun, who said politics has to be boring? We can do better, we have a choice,” she concluded.

Calare covers an area encompassing the Central Tablelands from Lithgow in the east, Oberon in in the south, Eugowra in the west, and Gulgong in the north.

Part of the Banjo Paterson Australian Poetry Festival, the Brekky and Poetry on the Pavers was extended to four days this year, so if you are reading this early on Thursday (the breakfast runs from 7.30am-9.30am), there’s still an opportunity to drop by and grab a bacon and egg roll and enjoy some entertainment on your way to work.

FEDERAL MEMBER FOR CALARE REMEMBERING OUR NASHOS - NATIONAL SERVICEMEN’S DAY

RUNS ON THE BOARD FOR ORANGE

On Sunday 13 February, we honoured and remembered our National Servicemen at the last major Nashos parade and service to be held in our region. It was with sadness that we marked the end of an era that started two decades ago.

As our Nashos grow older, and our commemorations change, the duty and responsibility to honour and remember them falls to younger generations.

√ $2 billion for Great Western Highway upgrade

Between 1951 and 1959, 227,000 Australians completed training. Between 1964 and 1972, 63,000 were called up to serve. 19,500 served in Borneo and Vietnam. Over 1200 were wounded in Vietnam and 200 lost their lives in that conflict.

√ $29.8 million for the Dixons Long Point Crossing development √ $22 million for the CSU medical school

I am very proud to serve as patron of the Mid State Sub Branch of the National Servicemen’s Association of Australia. My Uncle Geoff is one of the more than 15,000 Australians who proudly served as Nashos in Vietnam.

√ Federal Regional Investment Corporation established and based in Orange

We were joined on Sunday by the Mayor of Bathurst Robert Taylor and our special guest speaker was Lt Colonel Hary McKay MC - a Nasho with a long and distinguished military career.

√ $10.7 million for the Southern Feeder Road project

The story of Australia’s Nashos is that of service above self, and service to country. When Australia called them, they answered. Our nation will never forget our Nashos. We will always be grateful their service and sacrifice and everything they have done for Australia. Lest We Forget.

√ Dept of Infrastructure branch moved to Orange √ $2 million for the Forest Road Bridge duplication √ $900,000 for Orange Anglican Grammar School √ $14.7 million for Mission Australia’s Benjamin Short Grove Aged Care facility √ $100,000 for new stadium seating at Wade Park √ $3 million for a second radiotherapy unit at Orange Health Service √ $10 million for the Orange Conservatorium & Planetarium √ $1.42 million for an upgrade of Clergate Road √ 24 hour rescue helicopter service for Orange and region

BRIAN BENNETT PAVILION I had the honour of officially opening the Brian Bennett Pavilion in Newbridge on the weekend.

The pavilion was named after WW2 veteran and local legend Brian ‘Pete’ Bennett, who passed away in 2018. I’m told Brian was a salt of the earth chap, who was so humble he would’ve been bowled over on learning a building had been named after him!

The pavilion was transformed into a wonderful community space thanks to a $180,518 grant through the Australian Government’s Drought Communities Program Extension.

NEW WHEELS FOR ROTARY!

Planting trees for the Queen’s Jubilee

I am thrilled that the Australian Government was able to provide the Rotary Club of OrangeDaybreak with a $10,000 grant under the Stronger Communities Program to purchase a truck.

To celebrate the Diamond Jubilee of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II, I am pleased to invite eligible groups in Calare to contact my office about grants for tree planting projects.

The new vehicle will be used to help smaller towns go out and fundraise. A lot of the regions smaller towns don’t have the infrastructure or equipment to set up for a fundraising event so they can now use the truck to take that equipment.

It’s a great chance to commemorate while improving our local environment.

The truck was collected on Friday and used to bring items to the Orange Farmers Market on Saturday morning. It was great to see it already hard at work!

Pictured: Andrew with Charlie Fisher, Sue Moffatt and Bruce Smith from the Rotary Club of Orange Daybreak in the new truck

√ $14 million for highway upgrades between Lithgow and Orange

JOBS BOOM! The unemployment rate for Orange sits at 2.5% which is incredible! The national rate is 4.2% - the lowest since 2018. Compared to 2013, there are now 1.7 million more Australians in work, including an additional one million women.

√ $1.25 million for new contemporary and flexible learning spaces at St Mary’s Catholic School

MOLONG WATER TANK ARTWORK - A WONDERFUL ASSET

√ $1.2 million for CCTV in Orange, Bathurst and Wellington √ $1.9 million for The Orchard crisis accommodation centre

For more information, please contact my office on (02) 6361 7138 or via email: andrew.gee.mp@aph.gov.au

If you’ve travelled into Molong from Orange recently, you'd know there's an amazing new water tank artwork welcoming people to the town!

I congratulate Grow Molong on getting the job done!

It’s wonderful that local artists Michael Crook and Ricky Ah-See have worked together on this project turning an old water tank into a beautiful and creative gateway to Molong. The artwork was made possible thanks to a $60,000 Australian Government grant under the Tackling Tough Times Together Program.

CUDAL SHOW AFTER NEW BLOOD AHEAD OF SEPTEMBER EVENT

More than rides and sideshow alley, crochet, crafts, and sponge cakes in the Pavilion, the local country show is a true celebration of community.

The small community of Cudal is already looking ahead to its Show Day on the second Sunday in September and is after a few new faces to join the organising committee.

“It is a true country show,” Cudal Show Committee President, Chris Solomon explained.

“It’s not just a show for the sake of a show, but it’s a great community function, which people look forward to coming to. There are people who don't see each other from one year's end to the other, and they look forward to coming to the show to reacquaint themselves with their old mates. They come in, and they can have a yarn, have a chat, and socialise.

“Someone said to me, just recently, that without the show, they wouldn't see those people that don't live immediately around in this area.”

COVID-restrictions on public gatherings have obviously played havoc with event planning over the past two years, but Chris is keen to get the Cudal show going again. He’s putting the call out looking for people to join their committee or lend a hand in whatever way they can.

The JAM Orange crew: Lisa, Rod, Mark, Rob, Sue, Doug, Rob, and Paul

A Berry Good Jam!

“Whatever people feel comfortable doing,” said Chris. “We're just looking for a bit of new blood, for younger members, and younger people interested in being part of it.”

Chris said they are open to any new ideas and already he is proposing to make the show a bit more of a community market day.

A “berry good” time was had by all at the Huntley Berry Farm this month with JAM Orange putting on a fun, family-friendly afternoon musical entertainment.

“We are looking for anyone who can bring new ideas and enthusiasm,” he said.

The Cudal Show Committee meets at 7pm on the fourth Monday of the month at the Cudal Bowling Club.

Anyone interested can call Chris on 0418 960 086.

Gnoo Blas bound for bigger things - WORDS BY JONATHAN ROE, PHOTOS BY CEC TILBURG The Gnoo Blas Classic Car, Bike, and Truck Show, already known and one of the best in regional NSW, is only going to get bigger, says acting club president, Wayne Swadling.

On Saturday, about 600 vintage cars, trucks and motorcycles filled the northern corner of Jack Brabham Oval in what was one of the biggest events ever for the Gnoo Blas Classic Car Club.

“I reckon we got more cars there than 2020, it was a huge day,” said Wayne.

“We were just getting that many comments from people saying, ‘what a great event’ and that they are definitely coming back next year and going to bringout friends with them.

Noah & Lisa Clarke, Graham & Fran Bradley & Elliot Clarke

“We had people from Bowral, Newcastle, Sydney, Canberra, and people from even Melbourne, come up for the show too.”

This year saw the inaugural presentation of a perpetual trophy, named for the late Denis Gregory, who was the driving force behind establishing a classic car show in Orange.

The Car of the Show trophy was presented to Peter Cotterill of Mudgee for his 1960 Borgward Isabella Coupe.

Given the feedback he’s received, Wayne believes the Gnoo Blas Classic Car, Bike, and Truck Show has the potential to double in size.

“Hopefully, in the next couple of years, we'll get it to over a thousand cars. It is just getting that good reputation. It's something that’s going to get bigger and better every year,” he concluded.

PaulTIERNEY LUCY, PART II I don’t think it’s my ‘job’ to have a whinge, when there’s so much good news around The original column I sent in for publishing this week, will never see the light of day. It was full of whinges and whines – about all the rubbish sitting piled outside people’s homes, about potholes, about burnt-out cars, about burglaries. You get the gist. I emailed it in, thought about it overnight, re-read it, dumped it. Half the town is whining about the issues mentioned. I’ll leave it.

Fun column time! It’s less than three weeks until the Orange Running Festival. Massive event, lots of people registered, and if you’re up early driving to work and have a keen eye, you may have noticed lots more runners out on the roads and footpaths as they busily up their training in prep (or panic) before the upcoming races. On the looong jog home after “Parkrun” on Saturday, déjà vu whacked me on the back of the head. I rounded the corner on my home stretch and, in the distance, I could see two smiley- faces sitting behind their plant stand again. It was Lucy and her little sister (“Wingman”), hoping to raise some more funds.

You might recall almost a year ago I published a column here called ‘Lucy The Dancer’. In early 2021, Lucy and Wingman (and her family) were raising funds by selling plants and knick-knacks. I was really taken by their enthusiasm, genuine love, and positivity for what they were doing. Lucy was going away on the dancing adventure trip of a lifetime, but needed to raise her own funds to join the tour. I engaged in quite a long chat with them (just as Dad was bringing out some raisin toast for them), bought a few things, including some lovely cacti, flicked them a tip, and moved on – best thing to happen to me that week.

Cut to 2022, as I got within earshot of the plant stall, I overheard Lucy say to Wingman, “I told you it was Paul …” These two lovely young ladies are now a year older and wiser, with even nicer plants and, if possible, even bigger smiles. As I chatted to them (sorry ladies, I was dripping sweat and stinky), I learned that sadly, like many other events, Lucy’s dance adventure was postponed due to the pandemic – put on hold until later in 2022. Dad brought out a fried egg on toast this time. I apologised to the girls that I didn’t have a cent on me but, after a shower, I’d come back with some cash.

I dropped back at noon, to find they’d packed up. I knocked on the door and they led me out the back to their stash of plants where both Lucy and Wingman, full of confidence and pottedplant knowledge that would have made Costa Georgiadis proud, showed me their wares. After quite a few minutes of a botany lesson, I settled on two beautiful succulent specimens known as Aeoniums (tree houseleeks), one red, one green. I’m making a commitment to nurture them well.

I understand that Lucy and her support team have already raised over $300 this time around. Touch wood, there’ll be nothing to get in the way of the dancing tour this year, and after the heartbreak of 2021, Lucy will be more talented, stronger, and more appreciative of the opportunities afforded her.

Good on you Lucy. Good on you Wingman. My latest visit to your house put my priorities back in check. How can I prattle on about negative things when the good stuff should be the fuel that gets us through the week? Even if you don’t get the gold medal at the Dance Spectacular, you’ve already won.

The goodenough parent with Emily Thompson Homework was sent home today. Homework.

Ugh. If we ever needed proof that teachers secretly hate parents, here it is.

After walking in the door (which was then left open, clearly to let the poor flies in), shoes are kicked towards a wall in a flurry, bags are thrown in the hall for us to trip over later, and the children’s blank stares the only answer to my questions about where their drink bottles are — then the “second week back” negotiations began.

We never did homework with our eldest, because, like all first children she was raised with advice from parenting books. We chose not to follow the school’s paper booklets and instead spent our endless spare time on fun learning-at-home activities like nature walks, cooking meals from scratch and expensive lessons. She raised baby chickens, grew zucchini and turned it into lasagne, and learned Japanese, violin, flute, and gymnastics.

Now, I don’t like to use the word “neglect”, but the perfect parent you are with your first child doesn’t last with subsequent children.

Your blog titled “The Perfect Parent” is renamed “The Great Parent” before you admit you’re just too tired to care and settle on “The good-enough parent”. This translates to all aspects of parenting. First, you grow your own organic vegetables, then you buy organic vegetables, then you buy two vegetables and three frozen pizzas then, eventually it’s Froot Loops for dinner, everyone is dirty, and you just don’t care anymore.

So you do the set homework because you’re no longer capable of going the extra mile.

However, after two years of learning-fromhome “fun”, homework has a kind of PTSD

feel for parents and kids alike. I’m starting to suspect Miss 7 is enacting her revenge by deliberately torturing me and is enjoying it thoroughly.

This week’s focus was “or” words, and writing a sentence using one of them. Her first attempt was: “My mum turned forty-one.

She’s really old.” After pointing out that 41 isn’t actually old, and her asking, “If fortyone isn’t old, why do you groan when you stand up now? Are your knees old at least?”

I immediately imposed a lifetime ban on creative writing activities involving my age. I still haven’t recovered from last year’s “Life in the olden days — a story of my Mum and Dad when they were seven”.

I left her to it and turned my attention to Miss 13 who is in high school now. She seems to only receive assignments the night before they are due, so I encouraged her to start any assignments now. Anyone with teenagers will have already spotted where I ruined that conversation. Teenager-less parents; here’s a quick heads-up for you: You’re an idiot, and your teen always knows better than you.

Please don’t ruin their afternoon of screentime while glaring at family members by offering suggestions. You know nothing.

Back to Miss 7, who seems to have finished, and she proudly presents her homework, excitedly telling me she’s included a simile in her sentence as well! My heart swells with pride before I pick up the page and read: “My mum’s farts roll like a thunderstorm.”

I congratulate her on her simile and remind myself to pay more attention to homework as it’s being written in the future.

LIFEandTIMES with ANGUS GIBB Morning Coffee: I love my morning coffee. In fact, I could definitely say that I need my morning coffee. I love the ritual of warming up the machine, grinding the beans, and being overwhelmed with the smell of freshlyground beans.

I love setting the timer to make sure I get the right amount of coffee extracted in the shot. I love steaming the milk to the right temperature and consistency so that I can sit down at the table and enjoy a nice cup of coffee.

It is wonderful when you get it right. You smell the aromas and, taking that first sip, you are filled with a sense of joy. I love sitting there with my cup of coffee and whatever book I am currently reading

(The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King at the moment – but that’s for a future column).

“Hi” to your favourite barista. Whatever your morning coffee ritual is, you know it when it doesn’t happen.

is never giving up, and it lasts forever.

It is this love that enables the sun to rise each day.

No matter how weary I may be feeling as I get up out of bed. No matter what the night before held. No matter what lies ahead of me in the coming day, I can count on my morning coffee to set me up for the day.

For me, this understanding of God works far deeper in me than even the best cup of coffee, because I know that it is always there and it is not dependent on me.

It is a great moment in my day. We are all creatures of habit. We love the little rituals we go through during our day.

You know the feeling of missing that morning hit of caffeine to the system.

As I think about my morning coffee, I am reminded of something that the Bible says about the start of a new day.

In Lamentations 3:23-24 it says this: “The steadfast love of the Lord never ceases; his mercies never come to an end; they are new every morning; great is your faithfulness.”

Maybe, like me, the ritual of the morning coffee is something special to you too.

You look forward to that first sip. Maybe for you, that morning coffee happens at your local café, and you look forward to that moment every morning when you say

This is a beautiful promise that God has made. That every day is a new day. That no matter what has happened during the night or on the previous day, a new day is a new beginning. The reason for this is because of God’s steadfast love. This love

But the sun has still risen. God is still the constant and ever-present help. So I can enjoy my morning coffee and rest in knowing his love and faithfulness. Maybe this is something you might like to ponder as you enjoy your morning coffee today.

FEBRUARY 17-24, 2022

Great escape to Eleni’s OPERA HOUSE DEBUT - DAVID DIXON -

Looking to get-out from under lockdown and enjoy a bit of classic drama in the Harbour City?

W

ell then, why not go see local girl Eleni Cassimatis starring in a Sydney Opera House production of Hamlet starting early next month.

While rehearsals for the former KinrossWolaroi student have been going swimmingly; COVID-19 is still the shadow that hangs over all our lives.

With understudies not an Australian tradition for most theatre productions, everyone is keeping their fingers crossed that COVID-19 test results results keep coming-up negative so the show can finally go ahead.

“It’s been wonderful, a bit of a dream really, everyone is so grounded and incredibly talented,” she enthused about the Bell Shakespeare production starting on March 4.

“I think everyone thinks about it; the way things have been for the past two years, I had a friend in another show that had to quarantine for a week after testing positive,” Eleni said.

“Thankfully though we haven’t had any COVID cases, though we are testing three times a week; I personally, have been limiting my movements outside of rehearsals to avoid exposure.”

“I know a couple of large musicals that had to cancel performances. The fear is there, and the uncertainty is there,” she added.

Performing, Eleni says, seemed always in her blood: “I don’t ever remember telling my parents that I wanted to be an actor, they kind of knew that’s what I wanted to do,” she explains.

“I did all the musicals at school, and I also used to put on little shows at home with my sister…but both my parents tell me I got it from them,” she laughs.

With Hamlet, she’s in the unique position of having seen the current production performed live but, which due to lockdown, has now led to her being cast as “the Player Queen” in this “play within a play”.

“The play was meant to happen in 2020 and I actually saw it at the (Sydney) Opera

our pre-2020 lives again.

House… I was just blown-away, but the schedule was for it to run in 2020, then 2021, and now 2022, and this led to a couple of casting changes, including for my part,” she said.

With the official opening on March 9, she is looking forward to seeing a number of familiar faces from the Colour City in the crowd.

“They are going to be there! Quite a few people I know are going. A couple of friends, family friends, best friends from high school, and people that I grew up with,” Eleni said excitedly.

In the 1960s Danish setting for this production of Hamlet, she will also be touring to the Melbourne Arts Centre and Canberra Theatre Centre, if locals want to wait until the production is a little closer to home.

Eleni said everyone is looking forward to the ending of all restrictions to do with the pandemic when we can get back to

FEBRUARY 17-24, 2022

“It’d be so lucky to get past this, everything that you plan, you worry that an outbreak will see it put on hold; it’s caused so much turmoil for the arts,” she added.

With everyone affected by the pandemic that effectively stalled all live performances in Australia, Eleni determined to remain busy by keeping her craft-up via new technologies.

Local girl, Eleni Cassimatis is starring as the “Player Queen” next month in Shakespeare’s “Hamlet” at the Sydney Opera House.

“During lockdown we were getting on Zoom and reading Shakespeare plays together… I tried always to keep active and passionate about my work,” she said.

With the show already put-off on at least three occasions from its initial 2020 run, the constant daily coronavirus case numbers, restrictions, and rules around its control, has created a resilience in the theatre community, she believes.

“I think it absolutely has created a resilience; being in the rehearsal room, you just try and soak it up and enjoy every moment, it’s a heightened appreciation of the craft, but it’s across society, all occupations,” she said.

“We’ve all gone through this difficulty, now we’re on the point where there’s this groundswell, where things are starting to get better,” she said.

For locals looking to get out from under our two-year COVID blues, seeing Shakespeare’s classic play of betrayal, murder, obsession, and revenge, could just be the perfect tonic.

“I think it will be wonderful,” Eleni concluded.

When Vanessa was 15, she accidentally stumbled from an overcrowded platform and into the path of an oncoming train. She lost her left leg above the knee and right leg through the knee, and sustained head and back injuries and multiple broken bones.

She added that, while the rights and expectations for women have improved dramatically over recent decades, the Day still carries an important message.

Vanessa spent the next six months in hospital, and by the time she was discharged, her muscles had wasted away, and she weighed just 45 kg. Few would have guessed that, just a couple of years later, she would be competing on the world stage.

Green and environmentally-keen — Cr Mel McDonell is not for turning Keen environmentalist and newly-elected independent Orange City Councillor, Melanie McDonell, is not for turning.

The former head of the Greens ticket is one of few Orange City Councillors who is prepared to put the recently-approved first stage of the $25-million sports stadium precinct at Bloomfield on hold until the new Council reviews alternative sites for the facility.

Getting the decision done right is more important to getting it done quickly, she believes, arguing that putting an 8500-capacity sports stadium on a oneway-in, one-way-out, country road to a growing health precinct, is fraught with peril.

Employed at the Health Precinct, she doesn’t believe assurances from Council that traffic jams during major sporting events will not endanger access to the hospital for patients and staff.

“I really want to have a look at it again — aside from the trees, as someone who drives there regularly, it doesn’t cope with current levels of use. There is no way, with thousands of extra cars, that it will be able to cope.

“We’ve got specialists who, even now,

Newly-elected independent Orange City Councillor, Melanie McDonell is one of few Orange City Councillors prepared to put the recently-approved first stage of the $25-million sports stadium precinct at Bloomfield on-hold. most of last year, Mel admits she wasn’t totally flabbergasted at her election win, saying that new blood is a wonderful thing for the Colour City.

complain about the traffic and getting to emergencies, how’s it going to be with a full stadium crowd emptying onto those streets in south Orange?” the private practice nurse asked.

“I wasn’t surprised as such, I was cautiously optimistic, a lot of people were giving me congratulations before the election, but I didn’t want to get too far in front of myself,” Cr McDonell said.

She said that Council should again look at the North Orange site purchased by a previous council for that very use, but where natural-occurring asbestos is often cited as an issue.

“I’m so impressed at the new-look Council, I did a little ‘happy dance’ when I saw that Gerald (Power) and Frances (Kinghorne) got in as well.

“I don’t understand the change of location and why they moved it from there, this was the site they surveyed, zoned, changed its land use, sure it’s got naturally-occurring asbestos, but why were ratepayers’ funds put into the block of land if they know it was unsuitable?” she asked.

“I think this will make for a lot more respectful debate than in the last Chamber; a more respectful and collaborative approach.”

Believing that the days of party politicians ruling our lives are coming to an end, she was set to speak at independent environmental candidate Kate Hook's recent launch of her candidacy for Calare, until a long-running illness kept her away.

“Besides, the advice for naturallyoccurring asbestos, is the best way to deal with it, is to cap it with a sporting field.”

With a high-profile campaign; an articulate persona; a lot of new ideas; and her own giant utility advertising board on the back of a small utility truck during

“Independents are not controlled by

the party membership; I was actually going to speak at Kate’s launch, but my Mum read my speech.”

She believes that the new Council should have a more community-friendly emphasis with an all-weather playground top of her list.

“We need more of a ‘family focus’, not just a ‘sports family focus’. We need an all-weather adventure playground, somewhere in the middle of winter where kids can go on slides and the like.”

Cr McDonell would also like to see better footpaths and an electricitypowered, publicly-owned bus fleet to reduce locals’ reliance on the motor-car to get where they need to go.

“It’s a two-pronged approach that makes us less reliant on our cars… the only other thing is I want the new conservatorium of music and the planetarium to be built as soon-as possible. I’m a big muso… I played the bassoon as a kid. I think it will be great, so exciting,” she concluded.

This has resulted in a qualified buyer looking for a four-bedroom, two bathroom Federation home with high ceilings, storage and a private yard.

It has been more than two years since the Orange Symphony Orchestra (OSO) has given a public performance, with plans in 2020 and 2021 repeatedly being disrupted by the pandemic.

“Going back through the records and August 2019 was the last proper concert we put on,” said orchestral manager David Shaw.

“For this project, we actually started rehearsing in March last year and then it was scheduled for September… So we've had a long lead up for this one, but we're finally getting there!”

Country sensation Clancy on the make at local event

Clancy’s star is on the rise

D

espite two difficult years of lockdowns, cancelled gigs, venue restriction and more, local country music sensation, Clancy Pye has emerged more disciplined, determined, and ready to take her music career to the next level.

When the postponed Tamworth Country Music Festival finally gets underway in April, 29-year-old Clancy will take to the stage with nine other talented emerging artists all vying for one of the biggest prizes in Australian country music.

For more than 40 years, the prestigious Toyota Star Maker talent quest has been changing the lives of young musicians.

It has launched the careers of Country superstars such as Lee Kernagan, Keith Urban, Beccy Cole, and has made household names of many others.

Born into a musical family, Clancy first picked-up a guitar when she was just six and has been performing and writing music ever since. Her brother, Mickey Pye, won the Toyota Star Maker competition in 2015, and Clancy will be hoping to follow in his footsteps at the rescheduled Grand Final night on Tuesday, April 19.

“I thought I'd throw my hat in the ring

excited to release music and build my audience a little bit further.”

again,” said Clancy, who was also one of the 10 finalists in the 2020 Star Maker competition.

“It is just a real shame that, unfortunately, they had to postpone the Tamworth Country Music Festival a week out from when it was to go ahead… I definitely feel for the organisers having to reschedule everything but, at least it is postponed and not cancelled, so I'm looking forward to April now.”

Even with all that has (and has not) happened to the live music scene over the past two years, Clancy has been far from idle. During 2020, she released her debut self-titled EP along with two singles and accompanying music videos.

She has also been pushing herself as a musician and songwriter by taking up a self-imposed challenge to write a new song every single week.

“Since January 2020, I've written about 120 songs actually, so while it has been a challenging time for all musos, I've tried to keep pretty productive through that period,” said Clancy.

“Trying to stay disciplined and trying to produce at least a song a week — I think after a period of time, you kind of start to spark extra inspiration from doing it so frequently. So that has been a good thing to come out of COVID, I would say. I just feel like I'm at a point now, where I'm

In the lead up to the Grand Final event in Tamworth on April 19, the ten Star Maker finalists will each be performing a free pop-up concert at their hometown Toyota dealerships.

FOR OUR OWN POP-UP CONCERT, YOU CAN CATCH CLANCY PYE LIVE AT ORANGE TOYOTA AT 5PM ON FRIDAY, MARCH 4.

“I've not played a car yard, so this is going to be quite a unique experience,” said Clancy.

“Toyota have sponsored the Star Maker competition for a very long time now, and they are huge supporters of country music in Australia in general.

“And it is really nice that we have the opportunity to play the pop-up gigs in the lead-up to the festival and for local fans to come along for a bit of a unique gig — and to be able to play our own songs as well! It should be a fun afternoon.”

Fans who attend the free pop-up concert will also have a chance to win a Tamworth Country Music Festival experience prize.

There will be special QR codes at each pop-up concert and, anyone who enters, will go into the draw to win two tickets to the Country Club at the Toyota Star Maker Grand Final, as well as two tickets to the Golden Guitar Awards, to Lee Kernaghan’s show, plus accommodation.

ORANGE ALL STARS TOUCH FOOTIE TEAMS providing positive life-experiences

A

positive and inspiring youth program is currently running as part of this season’s Orange Touch Football

social competition.

The All Stars teams are part of a youth program being run by Jeff Mullins (Youth Liaison Officer) and Dylan Wright (Aboriginal Community Liaison Officer); both from the NSW Police Force. Former professional footballer and current Principal of Canobolas High School, Brett Blaker, is also supporting and playing in the men’s Orange All Stars side.

The youth touch football program is being funded by the Aboriginal Strategic Direction and, those in the know, say that it has so far proved to be an enormous success. Both of the sides mainly comprise teenagers of varying ages with Jeff recently explaining to Orange City Life how

this social and enjoyable sport enriches offfield experiences for the players.

The Orange All-Stars play in the Men’s Division 3 comp and are currently in a four-way tussle for the top of the ladder, highlighting how competitive this side is in only its first year of touch football.

“This youth touch football program teaches the players how to build resilience, and it also gives them responsibilities. But, most of all, the program creates pathways to opportunities for employment or further education through building responsibilities and playing as a team,” Jeff said.

Dylan added that the enacting of this youth program in the context of a touch football competition had created a positive outcome for the community.

“It’s a good opportunity for the players to get within the community and enjoy quality time playing this fun sport; the program touches base with our youth, and it also helps build rapport with the players/ families,” he explained.

The program’s mixed touch football side, the Orange All Stars Mixed, plays in the Mixed Division 8 competition on Tuesdays with the men's team running around on Thursday evenings.

Team-member (and Molong Bulls player), Lachie Elphick, talked about the positive experiences he’s had with the touch footie team and the benefits of the set-up.

...This youth touch football program teaches the players how to build resilience, and it also gives them responsibilities...

“We have a team with a good group of players and this has built many great friendships,” he said.

“Our side has improved and come a long way since the beginning of the season.

Participating in this team is a great way to connect with the community, and it can also be very rewarding for showing signs of good sportsmanship,” Lachie stated.

All those spoken to said that this positive youth program opens doors and creates rewarding life experiences for the players of the mixed and men’s Orange All Stars teams.

the top five sides might have worked in Central’s favour.

Cavaliers 6/93 defeated Bathurst City 9/92

Sharp bowling from several players and neat batting from Cameron Roberts (67 not out) helped Centrals claim the vital victory, notching up 24 points on the table. Centrals remain in eighth place, only three points behind Bathurst City.

Competition leaders Cavaliers flexed their muscles against Bathurst City recently through their batting with some fast and intelligent bowling from the undefeated Cavaliers also putting a dent in Bathurst City’s chances in this game.

The Cavaliers were just too strong for Bathurst City, beating the visitors by 77 runs in the end. Another strong display from the competition favourites leaves them at the summit of the BOIDC, 14 points ahead of second-placed St Pat’s Old Boys.

In the main event, the Opens’ Vipers struggled to contain the offensive pressure from their Bathurst rivals. As a result, the Vipers went into the break 22-4 down, needing a complete turnaround in the second half.

Cavaliers 8/201 defeated Bathurst City 124 Despite suffering their eighth loss of the season, CYMS still put on a courageous display against one of the competition’s top guns. The Orange side travelled to Bathurst to take on secondplaced St Pat’s Old Boys.

While the Orange side scored more points in the second half, Panorama Platypi was able to break-through the opposition defence multiple times and close out the game 40-16. It wasn’t the start to the season the Vipers had anticipated.

Nevertheless, it was still great to see a strong crowd turnout.

Both sides were vulnerable at times, making cheap errors when batting. However, St Pat’s Old Boys possessed more firepower when it came to scoring fours and came out on top.

St Pat’s Old Boys 5/257 defeated CYMS 6/208

Bonnor Cup: Cavaliers book their place in the semi-finals

In the top-four clash between Rugby Union and Orange City at George Park, both sides were aiming for the win to cement their status in the competition's top five. It was a tense game that required some individual brilliance to make a difference.

The final game of Pool B in the Royal Hotel Bonnor Cup took place last Friday evening at Wade Park. While St Pat’s Old Boys, Orange City, and Rugby Union have already secured their positions in the semi-finals, the last semi-final place was up-forgrabs in the Cavaliers-Bathurst City game.

Some electrifying and crisp batting by Jameel Qureshi (61 not out) turned the game on its head, with the star batsman scoring five fours and two sixes. Jameel’s brother, Yousuf Qureshi, also displayed some incredible bowling. Yousuf notched an impressive 6/20 (eight overs), helping the Bathurst side claim victory against a formidable Orange City outfit.

With high stakes on the line, this game promised to be a delicately-poised battle. The Cavaliers-Bathurst City contest lived up to the hype with the Orange side coming-out on top of the fight with Cavaliers edging-out their opponents which saw them secure a topplace finish in Pool B and book their place in the semi-finals.

Basketball action There was plenty of basketball excitement and tension in last Thursday’s round 10 of the Boys High School Division 2. Team Spartans had the bye in this round.

The first game of the evening featured the table-topping Hawks against Kinross Heat.

The Hawks had slightly-more offensive power from the threepoint line, despite Kinross Heat's brave fight against the leaders.

As a result, the Hawks beat Kinross Heat 32-20.

In the 6pm game, sixthplaced Kinross Wizards took on a strong third-placed OAGS Orange. OAGS Orange was more clinical going forward, boasting more efficiency in their shooting game. Kinross Wizards eventually lost the game, 25-40.

The 7:40pm game saw lastplaced Kinross Spurs take on second-placed Fire Hawks. An in-form Fire Hawks cruised to a dominant 44-7 victory, proving why they were heavy favourites for this clash.

Two Orange locals make the Junior Wallabies squad

JAMEEL QURESHI: Central West’s star cricketer

From a cricket-orientated family, Jameel Qureshi is one of three talented brothers with Jameel recently captaining Western Zone in the McDonald's NSW Country Championships at Shoalhaven. The Central West’s star cricketer based at Blayney, has had a busy schedule so far with representative tournaments this season. With the finals coming up, it looks like Jameel’s cricket timetable will be even more hectic towards the season’s end.

Orange City Life recently caught-up with Jameel to talk about Western’s overall performance at the NSW Country

There was some significant news in the recent Junior Wallabies squad selection.

Andrew Romano and Fritz Jahnke-Tavana, both former Orange City players, made the current Junior Wallabies squad.

The rising rugby union stars are making a name for themselves in this highlyprestigious representative team with Andrew Romano plying his trade in Western Australia with Western Force’s Fortescue Academy. Fritz Jahnke-Tavana plays with the NSW Waratahs academy.

Championships; how he ranks Central West cricket compared to other NSW areas; and his ambitions in this season’s first-grade BOIDC (Bathurst Orange Inter-District Cricket) competition.

According to the veteran local cricketer, this current Western Zone squad is one of the most talented he has ever seen. Western’s Southern Pool had them placed alongside Greater Illawarra, Riverina, and ACT Southern Districts, in the NSW Country Championships.

“After returning to the Western Zone three years ago, this was one of the strongest sides I’ve seen. In my opinion, I think we were one of the more talented squads at this year’s NSW Country Championships,” Jameel said.

Despite Western going into the NSW Country Championships with many skilled players from the Central West, the team however was still predominantly young with players lacking concentration at times, especially when the wickets dictated the momentum in some games. Some of the squad's lack of carnival experience surfaced in the most challenging games against Greater Illawarra and the ACT Southern Districts.

“Western was probably the most talented on paper in our group, but we just didn’t execute at times. However, this was a valuable experience to build on, especially for our young players.

We also come from a large pool, so you’re talking about players from Dubbo through to the Blue Mountains. Our squad doesn’t get to spend much time training in comparison to an ACT or Newcastle side,” Jameel stated.

There may have been no Final for Western, but Jameel said that playing cricket at a higher level and testing himself against some of the State’s talented youth, was a career highlight.

The skilled local batsman was also recently selected for the Central West Wranglers squad in the Plan B Regional Bash Finals at the SCG. But Jameel’s main focus this season is

Jameel Qureshi recently captained Western Zone in the McDonald's NSW Country Championships at Shoalhaven, however, his cricket timetable will be even more hectic towards the season’s end. still doing well in the challenging BOIDC competition. The Bathurst Rugby Union star has been a problematic batsman for numerous Orange cricket sides in the past, with his powerful and clever shots causing numerous headaches for the opposition. However, with Jameel’s club narrowly missing out on the 2021 Grand Final, he has now set his eyes on this season’s elusive BOIDC silverware.

“I would love to win the joint BOIDC competition, but it’s difficult when Orange has many good sides. When I played in Sydney during the earlier stages of my cricket career, Bathurst and Orange had their respective competitions. And with the BathurstOrange competition returning in the last couple of years, it would be something pretty special to win one of these,” said Jameel.

For one of the Central West’s most respected and talented cricketers playing in many representative tournaments, Jameel has never been more determined to claim the BOIDC trophy. While Jameel’s Rugby Union currently sits firmly in the topfour, the seasoned cricketer still sees Orange’s undefeated Cavaliers as the competition’s biggest threat.

Interestingly enough, Rugby Union hasn’t faced the Cavaliers this season due to the wet weather postponement back in round three. It will be fascinating to see if Jameel Qureshi and his Rugby Union teammates can handle the mighty Cavaliers in round 13, February 26

Golden Eagle Classic Pairs starts Tuesday The 53rd Golden Eagle Classic Open Pairs tournament is set to get underway on Tuesday, February 22, with bowlers eager to take to the greens after COVID cancelled the competition in 2021.

Sixty-eight bowlers will contest the four-day event, hosted by Orange City Bowling Club, each looking to win a share of the $16,000 prize pool and hold aloft the metre-high, cast bronze eagle trophy that gives the tournament its name.

COVID restrictions forced organisers to cancel the event last year, which was only the second time the tournament had not been held in its 50-plus year history.

BARRACKER THE

Why we know more about Tom Brady than the NFL? Recent playing of American Football’s 56th (or the Roman “LVI”, as the Americans like to say) Superbowl and the retirement of National Football League legend Tom Brady, again highlights Australian’s complex relationship with the game.

Brady can rightly claim to be one of the greatest, if not the very best, quarterback in US football history.

Twenty-two years at the top, seven titles, and an uncanny ability to take teams that have languished for years and turn them around with his unerring passing ability and unflappable calm in all situations.

Like many a champion though, there was a dark-side to his competitiveness.

He was banned for four matches after the 2014 “deflategate” scandal when it was found that his team, the New England Patriots, was providing him with footballs at a lower air-pressure than his opponents, thereby offering him better grip and throwing ability.

While the game— “Gridiron” as Australians used to call it due to the horizontal lines across the field appearing in the shape of an oldfashioned cooking utensil — has always had a high media profile in Australia, few people actually watch it.

Their annual grand final “The Superbowl” — one of the world’ great sporting spectacles — gets almost as much publicity here as our own major sports events. However most Aussie sports fans prefer to see the edited highlights, which can easily be summarised in a three or four-minute news item, than having to watch the actual 60-minutes of play stretchedout out by quarter breaks, stoppages, and time-outs, to sometimes four excruciating hours of television.

American writer, Hunter S Thompson, who wrote extensively about the game in the 1970s, believed that its displacing of baseball as America’s national sport was almost totally explained by its suitability as a television spectacle, rather than the intrinsic excitement of the game itself.

Which might be why it has never

made major sporting inroads into other sports-mad countries like Australia and Britain. While the American sports of basketball, softball and, to a lesser extent, baseball, all have loyal and growing player numbers and fans in Australia, attempts to implant American football have never really succeeded.

Part of the reason is that, simply, the game can be deathly dull, and even worse live than on television.

A number of years’ ago, two US college football teams visited Bathurst for an exhibition game. In sub-zero temperatures in the middle of July, hundreds of locals sat freezing in the grandstands as the two coaches unbelievably spent most of the game arguing with the referees about rule interpretations.

The two most memorable events of the night were, firstly, watching every single American player, coach, water-boy, and cheer-squad member standing bolt-upright, hand on heart, in military precision as the American national anthem was played by the local brass band.

The other stand-out was witnessing an incredible human pyramid slowlyformed by the cheer boys and girls — both teams were from the “heartland” with the squads very conservativelyattired — Americans are generally a far more modest and self-effacing people than they appear on television.

Historical note: Like rugby league, American football originated from the world’s first hand-ball game, rugby union. While rugby league solved the issue of excessive player numbers by removing two members from each team, American football took a more-radical approach, reducing player numbers by eight and introducing the forward pass.

Their famous helmets are actually derived from the headgear still worn by many rugby (and, occasionally) league players, with early exponents of the US game sometimes known as “Leatherheads”.

THUMBS UP to the gentleman in Aldi today, who kindly added $5 to my small amount of cash when my card unexpectedly declined. It was much appreciated.

THUMBS UP to the guy who was directing traffic at the lights on the corner of Forest Road and Huntley Road recently when the traffic lights were down.

Great Job! THUMBS DOWN It is good to see that there is wheelchair parking at Orange City Centre.

However, recently I was getting a walker out of the back of my vehicle and another car was reversing out at the same time. I was about to close up the back of my ute, when the front lefthand side of their car ran into the side of my leg (which is being treated for ulcers).

The driver did not even apologise or ask if I was okay, then just drove off. Maybe they should get tested for their licence again!

THUMBS DOWN to the person who wasn’t wearing a mask that walked into the Village Coffee Shop bringing takeaway food from another shop. They then sat down and ate it there. They did buy a cold drink, though.

Still, how rude!

THUMBS DOWN to all the television programs about war. How can we build and maintain peace; if we’re not seeing it?

THUMBS DOWN to all the drivers that are not watching the road when they approach the Lords Place pedestrian crossing coming off Robertson Park. It has been there for months now, and there have been many nearmisses by cars screeching to a halt, seemingly because they have not seen it or not realised there are people crossing there. I don't know how this problem can be rectified, but the Council needs to take a good look at the situation, before someone gets hurt or, even worse, killed.

THUMBS UP On the

THUMBS UP to the

mid-afternoon of Thursday, February 3, after parking my car on the northern side of Warrendine Street near Wade Park Tennis Courts, I fell down onto the bitumen after tripping on yellow stands that were holding a parking advisory sign and then couldn’t get up by myself as I am over 80-yearsold. A middle-aged lady driving along Warrendine Street stopped her car and got out, helped me stand up onto my feet and checked that I was okay. I would sincerely like to thank her and also a young chap who was playing tennis next door who witnessed the incident and also offered to help.

Village Coffee Shop for great coffee and food and the friendly staff that always greet you upon arrival.

THUMBS UP to the man who waved down traffic on the road near Euchareena, as he proceeded to try and move a stubborn echidna from the centre of the road. It was only following some gentle coaxing with his boot, that the animal finally gave up its protest and wandered off into the paddock.

THUMBS DOWN to the lady in the ute on the afternoon of Friday, February 4, who left her dog on the back of her metaltray ute in the sun, while she trotted off to get ice-cream for more than half-an-hour.

She then proceeded to sit in her ute for a further 15 minutes, while the poor dog suffered! Either, don't bring your dog with you or take it with you to get ice-cream.

Then it can sit in the shade and not burn its paws on hot metal! Use some common sense.

THUMBS UP to the man I saw holding the lift doors open at the Central Square Shopping Centre on Thursday, February 10 to allow a less-mobile older lady to make her way to the lift. It was good to see a young man thinking of the older generation and being courteous in this way. Good on you, son!

THUMBS UP to the local schools being able to finally get back to what they do best, teaching our kids without the constant interruptions, lockdowns, and restrictions caused by COVID-19.

THUMBS UP to Tony Flowers and his crew for doing an amazing job with our driveway. It looks fantastic! A big thank you to Orange Mini-Mix, too.

THUMBS UP to Mark and all the staff at Domino’s for supplying free pizzas to Calare Nursing Home for all the staff for lunch on Thursday, February 3. It was much appreciated.

THUMBS UP to the staff at McCarthy’s Pharmacy.

They are always helpful and very kind. You are doing a great job. Keep it up!

THUMBS UP to Dr King and all the nurses, who looked after me during a procedure I had recently at Orange Health Services.

Thank you so much for taking such good care of me.
