er story is that of resilience and personal tragedy.

Though, throughout her struggles of mental illness, her talent as an artist was uncovered. (Liz drew and painted as a little girl, before her mental illness diagnosis) Liz’s recollection of her life found us with the help of the Orange O’Brien Centre.

“Art has helped me to leave a world I wasn’t able to deal with and enter a world that I could be extremely proud of,” explained Liz. “It’s brought me such satisfaction and some accolades that no-one can take away from me, I would like other mental health consumers to be able to feel that way too.”

Liz was one of 12 children in her family. At just eight years old, Liz witnessed her Father’s fatal heart attack, which then led to her developing schizophrenia. “I didn’t understand what was going on, but I remember clear as a bell, a male’s voice, I would scream and run, I’d tell him to be quiet and to leave me alone.”

“Back in those days Mum would say, ‘Don’t tell anyone about this or they’ll lock you up’, there wasn’t the same understanding about mental illness – it was you just shouldn’t act, ‘crazy.’”

“I suffered with schizophrenia for as long as I can remember and over the years, I just beat it down somehow,” said Liz. “When something like that is happening to you, it’s real, and it’s hard to understand why other people weren’t

supplies – even at Discount Dave’s - so I used to make my own paints out of mud.”

After also enduring a childhood filled with domestic violence, Liz moved to stay with one of her sisters in Blayney.

Liz approached Jen Coleman of the O’Brien Centre just before the COVID shutdown. “It was my desire to teach anybody anything I could, so it became a saviour for them too, and normalises mental illness, removing that stigma. It’s time to make mental illness ‘normal’.”

Liz added, “Domestic violence in those days was a bit like mental health – you just kept quiet about it. The trauma that I dealt with you don’t get over, you just learn to live with it.”

Now that the O’Brien Centre is open again, so is Liz’s art class.

“People would find it hard to believe my story and that’s why I haven’t told it a lot. For a long time, I was on my own raising my children until it became too much.

When my kids were teenagers, I came into Orange one day and I think I went to Cadia House for help. I pulled up outside and I was walking back and forth, back and forth – for nearly two hours. I just couldn’t go in. Eventually one of the ladies who worked there came out and said to me, “Are you ready yet?” and for me to put my hand up for help was a big thing.

“Cadia House was absolutely a turning point for me.”

It was then that Liz discovered that art wasn’t just ‘art’ to her. “I was thinking a few years back, I was painting a lot, and I thought to myself, ‘this has saved me’.

“Art has always been something I have done as far back as I can remember, I really can’t remember a day when it wasn’t in my life”.

“Especially after Dad died, I had a favourite hill, I would climb it and stare into space for hours.

I’d look out at the mountains and work out how to draw them. But it was expensive to buy art

...I’ve had the privilege to teach the unteachable and reach the unreachable and I’ve done it through art...

“The staff here have treated me really wonderfully and have made me feel very important. I’m not there to make myself important but I want to help participants, lift them up, and stop them feeling like they have to walk around with their heads down. The more I’ve learnt about it the more I respect myself for coming out the other end of what I have gone through.”

Liz added, “In the future, I’d like to challenge mental health labels. If someone goes to hospital with a broken leg, people don’t say, ‘Hey, that person has a broken leg” for the rest of their life.

I have a saying “I’ve had the privilege to teach the unteachable and reach the unreachable and I’ve done it through art”.

“I also work with anyone who is interested in learning about art through my studio in Carcoar.

Art is what I am about, and I’d love anyone who wants to, to contact me.”

Poll – a taste for change, or is it more of the same?

With Orange, Blayney and Cabonne joining the rest of NSW in holding Local Government elections this Saturday, the wait is finally over for a poll that was originally set down for September last year.

Debate has been spirited and mostly above-board, though some of the social media commentary – particularly directed towards one mayoral candidate – can only be described as excessive and out-of-order.

With the State just starting to come out of its two-year COVID-19 restrictions, there seems an appetite for change in the community and, with only half the current councillors running again, the next Orange Council will certainly have a new look.

It is also a far more varied group running this time showing the greater diversity of the Colour City with lots of successful women, at least one indigenous candidate, and some from non-English speaking backgrounds, on the ballot.

Political parties are taking a back seat with only the Greens and Shooters, Fishers and Farmers running party tickets, perhaps indicating a back-to-community feel that has become prevalent since the first pandemic lockdowns last February.

But whether these still-unforeseen changes will be reflected in the Council vote, only Saturday night will tell.

My guess is that we’re going to be seeing a lot of fresh new faces in the next Orange City Council, though many of the current councillors running have been the more highprofile and pro-active of the last Council cohort.

Out of these, Jason Hamling, Jeff Whitton, Kevin Duffy and Tony Mileto are also in the running for the mayoral robes in the direct election of the next mayor.

Local voters agreed to this change in 2013 with the 2017 election seeing long-time Councillor Reg Kidd becoming the first direct-elected mayor.

One wonders if ratepayers, if polled now, would go back to the old model of the mayor being annually elected by the councillors compared to the current model.

Probably not, most Colour City residents seem to like the idea of a mayor who is, in some ways, above the political fray of the Council.

Oh, and remember that you have to vote, it is compulsory in all Federal, State and Local Government elections in NSW – one of the few things I’d change about our political system.

That people – often young, apolitical or simply too busy to take notice – are forced to pick sides in a process in which they have little interest is, in my opinion, a denial of democratic free will.

In the end, choosing not to vote is a political statement in itself, and one to which we should all be entitled.

If that leads to a situation where only 30 or 40 per cent of the adult population actually take the time and effort to vote, then so be it.

These will at least be the people who have a genuine interest in the outcome.

What better way to improve the quality of our candidates offering a genuine choice of policies, personalities and principles, than to make our pollies really work for our vote!

Diana’s launch explores landscape through both poetry and pictures

Local au thor Diana B ell Brook s’ first work , t h e well-kno wn child ren’s book, “Th e Rebels of Journey’s End.”

Launch of local writer Diana Bell Brooks’ most recent book this evening draws on a lifetime of creative energy

Bookings are still available to attend the Thursday, December 2 event at Orange City Library after a full booking list led to the event being moved to a larger room.

“After University — where I studied English literature, history and psychology — I did teach, quite often migrants and also adult creative writing,” she explained.

The anthology of poems, “Ten Fabled Landscapes” is Diana’s second book of poetry.

Her latest work, however, shows that she still has that creative urge. In “Ten Fabled Landscapes,” Diana explores the changing nature of place from a range of perspectives.

However, these works are not Diana’s first brush with literary fame. She also published a well-known novel as a child author all the way back in 1966.

“I wrote a children’s’ book, years’ ago, as a child myself. It was called ‘The Rebels of Journey’s End’ — an animal story,” she recalls.

The picture book, still available in print, covers: “the story of how a cat, a mouse, a chipmunk, and a little girl named Donna, come together in a deserted house to fight the leader of the mouse underworld.”

“I was actually the youngest writer ever to be published by Puffin Books in Australia,” Diana recalls proudly.

“A landscape is a dynamic background to people’s lives. ‘Landscape’ is a loosely-used term in this book of poetry and photographs, but the quotation expresses my attraction for setting my poems in them,” Diana said.

The book has also proved to be a personal experiment for Diana as she matches almost every poem in the book with striking images of the landscape theme of the text.

From the familiar, such as Orange’s Cook Park begonia house, to the wild – a Blue Mountains cliff face and the sandy surrounds of Lake Mungo — the distinctive elements of each landscape are examined in both words and images.

“The book has also proved to be a personal experiment for me, I interfaced almost every poem with black and white images.”

Like most artists, she defies easy categorisation but describes her style as “lyric, narrative, contemporary,”.

Some of these were part of the original inspiration for the writing of the poem facing them on the pages, she added.

Her taste in poetry is of a similar vein, she added: “I love (Australian poet) Bruce Dawe, WB Yeats, TS Elliott… TS Elliott especially,” she enthused.

“I was taking photos of these landscapes… some are mine and some are from other people in Orange… and the poetry seemed to come out of that, they seemed to go together…

“My hope is, whatever the verses and the setting, they extend each other in a complementary way. Some of them were part of the original inspiration for the writing of the poem next to it.

“Some are my photos; others are from different photographers. Using black and white was a choice I made for several reasons.

“No-one normally puts photos together with poems… I only used black-and-white because that worked,” she added.

“I wrote most of the poems a while ago — I write two or three a year — and only just put them together.”

Diana is part of the Colour City Creatives collective of artists, painters, and craftspeople based out of the old railworker accommodation block in the south Orange “fork” for the Indian Pacific. “I’m their ‘resident poet,’ I used to have a studio there,” she added.

Those with a passion for both the Australian landscape and local poetry, are invited to Diana’s book launch for her poetry and photographs being held in Orange City Library this Thursday, December 2 from 5.30–7pm.

Those wishing to attend, must book their place at www.eventbrite.com.au/ or call Orange City Library on 6393 8132.

Charlie’s lockdown tale of GOOD VERSUS NOT-SO-GOOD! — DAVID DIXON —

T

Young Charlie Pyle has the key to the lockdown!

he literary local seven-yearold recently published a story on the pandemic as part of a collection of children’s writings on the subject called, “Who Has The Key to Lockdown?”

The Orange Christian School pupil earlier this year answered a call from Saci Books in Sydney, a small publishing start-up dedicated to offering children a creative voice that they wouldn’t otherwise have.

His story, “Bug Guys versus COVID Bugs”, is a classic tale of good-versus-not-so-good, Charlie explains.

“Well, it’s all about the bugs. The good bugs are trying to defeat the bag bugs… I’ve got a couple of copies,” he added proudly of his first book.

Father Stuart explains that the compilation is designed to examine how children themselves reacted to the past two extraordinary years of first, the pandemic, then quarantine, stay-at-home-orders, and lockdowns.

“It includes the work of a number of young authors… its aim is to explore children’s experiences during lockdown, most are either stories, poems, or accounts on what’s it like,” Stuart explained.

Many of the works are revelatory in explaining how young people reacted to our most unusual of times.

“It depended on their age (some of the authors are teenagers), but, generally, everything that was normal changed, and they kept hearing the same thing ‘that this is due to COVID,’ whether it was trying to go to Sydney, or whatever,” Stuart said.

The book is a compilation of short stories, poems, a speech and even some colouring activities written and illustrated by the young authors and illustrators between the ages of six and 17.

Charlie’s story was selected out of dozens for the competition run by the publishers in March and April this year with many entries coming from the hardest-hit State, Victoria.

Nurse Linda Carnovale

will be in the Salon 12th & 13th November

“It was an online competition and they received almost 100 submissions, Charlie’s was selected as one of about 20,” Stuart said.

Publisher and founder of Saci Books, Maíra Metelo said that the stories have an important role to play in revealing how the pandemic has affected our youngest citizens.

“Children and teenagers need a channel to express themselves, particularly the feelings they cannot comprehend yet and I believe that art, particularly writing, helps them process these strong feelings.

“It’s part of the development of emotional intelligence. In addition, we are entertained and touched by their work, and we get a glimpse of their world,” she said.

Despite his tender years, Charlie’s proud Dad was not at all surprised to see his son’s enthusiasm for the competition with his fine, first-up effort.

The book launched online recently and is locally available at Collins Booksellers in Summer Street, something of a “lifelong”

A health worker himself, Stuart searches to find, between he and his wife Katie, where Charlie inherited his love of literature.

“He’s got a grandfather that self-publishes family history books, so there is that,” Stuart said.

Charlie, in his potted profile for the anthology, however, has no doubts as to his passion.

“The thing I love to do most is read, write stories and play with my sisters. I don’t have a favourite author because there are too many good authors to choose from!

“When I write, I am inspired by the people around me, the things I see or feel, and sometimes by the things I read about. My dream is to one day be an author and see the books I have written in a real bookshop!”

Encore show after “best exhibition ever” for Artwork Orange group

L

The “back to local” movement of the past two years has been good news for some sections of the Orange art scene.

ockdown – far from destroying demand – has proven a boon for one local art group, at least.

Artwork Orange, which represents new and emerging painters in the Colour City, recently had their best-ever exhibition and sale, co-founder Jennifer Lacey said proudly.

In fact, the local painters sold so many works at the CWA Hall in Byng Street, they’re holding another exhibition just in time for Christmas.

“This was our best exhibition ever, we sold plenty of stuff. There’s only so much money to go around at the best of times, and people simply aren’t traveling or going overseas at the moment,” Jennifer said excitedly.

“People have got nothing else to spend their money on, so they’re buying artworks.

“I also think it’s a measure of how strong the local art scene is in general,” she added.

Artwork Orange is a collaboration established by Robin Marshall and Jennifer, two local art-lovers who set out to create a space to showcase the beautiful works of local artists and artisans.

Embracing various forms of art including 2D and 3D, both have a passion for sharing the amazing creativity and talent of local artists.

Helping teach others the skills to be competent artists, Jennifer was one of the artists who enjoyed a very profitable show at the Robertson Park showing.

“I’m an art teacher by trade and I do it now as a hobby,” she said.

“We had about 30 artists at the exhibition, and I sold seven works myself,” Jennifer said.

The exhibition is being followed by a similar event running next weekend, Saturday and Sunday, December 11-12, at the same venue, but she believes that the group has not squeezed the lemon dry when it comes to sales of their works.

“We tend to find that we have a different demographic each time, it’s not the same people coming back,” she added.

Jennifer revealed that the purpose of these “occasional exhibitions” is to provide a forum for artists in Orange and surrounding areas to exhibit their work to a wide audience, normally unavailable to them.

“Our artists routinely sell pieces to visitors from interstate and other regional areas. It also provides an opportunity for artists to

evaluate their own work in a non-exclusive environment alongside that of their peers.

“We’ve been showings works online, but now we’re back doing these events for local artists,” she said.

The exhibition included wooden and metal sculpture, contemporary glass, digital images, mixed media, paintings and drawings by artists who range from university graduates to enthusiastic amateurs.

She said that the current Orange City Council had been especially supportive of their work and had been a major supporter of their recent shows.

“I’m a local election candidate who is particularly interested in the importance of good design as a vehicle for improving the environment, quality of life and problem solving,” Jennifer explained.

Entry to all visitors is free for the exhibition.

Celebrate Orange 360 Festival program at a glance Thursday 9 December • Spiegeltent Ticketed Shows • Blayney Twilight Shopping

Friday 10 December

Get ready to celebrate this December!

— MELISE DAVIS —

From Thursday December 9 – 12, Orange 360 will be hosting a ‘Celebrate Orange360 Festival’.

A great way to celebrate our ‘reopening’ of the region as well as our local talent and producers that make our region so special, Celebrate Orange360 is a three-day festival jam packed with events for the whole family to enjoy.

“Orange is open for business!” stated Orange360 General Manager, Caddie Marshall. “We’ve missed our visitors and we’re thrilled to welcome them back to celebrate the reopening of our region in such a big way. Celebrate Orange360 will mark the start of the festive season and be a showcase of local talent and producers.

“We’re inviting our locals and visitors to head to Roberston Park and enjoy a weekend of fun and Christmas cheer, we’ve included events for all ages to enjoy so that there really is something for everyone to celebrate!” said Caddie.

The Orange Wine Festival Night Market and Wine Show Tasting are the perfect events to sample local cool-climate wines, while a Spiegeltent in Robertson Park hosts a program of ticketed events including live musical performances, comedy acts, death defying stunts and so much more. But wait, there’s more.. McNamara Street will come to life with live acts and a pop-up bar, on Friday December 10.

Featured Spiegeltent events include: ‘The Pitts Family Circus,’ bringing family acrobatics, juggling, hand balancing and jokes. ‘The Space Cowboy’ will have you on the edge of your seat with sword swallowing, knife throwing, escapology, chainsaw juggling, whip cracking, mind reading, mentalism and spoon bending. The after dark skew of the ‘KISS BANG Kabaret’ brings comedy, circus, variety,

and cabaret like you have never seen before!

Caddie continued, “With a selection of wine and food available from out the front of Speigeltent, we think this is a fun way to spend Saturday afternoon with the family and do a little bit of Christmas shopping in Summer Street and the surrounding centres,” said Caddie, “There will also be plenty on offer for Christmas in the Villages with a late-night shopping event in Blayney and Millthorpe.”

“The Christmas highlight will of course be the fra-lah-lahing of the Orange City Council Christmas Carols on Saturday December 11, in Orange’s North Court, this will bring some holiday cheer to town. Awaken on Sunday and be welcomed back to Robertson Park for Sunday Sparkling Brunch and Christmas Artisan Markets, an ideal spot to sample and purchase local produce – once again, just in time for Christmas!”

Mayor, Reg Kidd added, “Carols by Candlelight is one of the most popular events on Council’s calendar and I’m glad we are able to put them on this year. Our council staff have also been busy putting Christmas decorations up around the CBD, with the hugely popular Robertson Park bauble also set to make a return. It really adds to the Christmas cheer and gives people something to smile about after a very tough couple of years.

“I encourage everyone to come into the city centre and join in the celebrations, spend time in the city centre supporting our local businesses and boosting our economy this Christmas. I will be there, will you?”

Time to nominate your unsung Australia Day heroes Do you know someone who has done plenty, year-in, year-out, for those less fortunate than themselves in the Colour City?

But with six separate categories of awards, he said that there is a prize for a range of community-minded groups and individuals.

That’s the type of person that Australia Day Committee Member, Councillor Scott Munro, would like to see nominated for next year’s Australia Day awards.

“We have all sorts of different awards, philanthropy, community, think about someone who’s worthy being an Australia Day award winner,” Cr Munro said.

Orange is looking to a return to full Australia Day celebrations next January without any COVID-19 restrictions, Cr Munro added.

Orange Mayor Cr Reg Kidd agreed, saying that: “Orange is a wonderfully giving community. There are hundreds of unsung heroes in our city whose commitment and dedication makes a significant, positive difference to someone else’s life.

“There were some restrictions this year, but I’m pretty positive that, with the high local vaccination rates, we can return to a full and unrestricted event.”

Nominations will only be accepted until close of business on Wednesday, December 15 – so now’s the time to think about who your local “unsung hero” is.

“We all know someone who goes the extra mile, who gives up their time for the good of others and they deserve to be recognised.”

The six award categories are:

“Beverly Rankin, who does wonderful things working with (local charity) Fusion, giving up her weekends to help others, was last year’s citizen of the year,” Cr Munro said.

• The Citizen of the Year Award recognises an individual who has achieved something extraordinary, is an inspirational role model to others or who has made a sustained outstanding contribution to the local community.

“That’s the type of person you should be thinking about, someone who helps others without thinking of self-publicity or promotion,” he added.

• Young Citizen of the Year Award recognises an individual under 25 years of age who has achieved something extraordinary, is an inspirational role model to others or who

has made a sustained outstanding contribution to the local community.

• Community Group of the Year Award recognises a group which has made a valuable contribution to the Orange community throughout the year.

• Community Event of the Year Award recognises an event that has made a valuable contribution to the community. This will be determined both in relation to the quality of the event and the scope of impact on the local government area.

• Local Legend Award recognises a person who has moulded the Orange local community with outstanding, illustrious or renowned achievement.

• Business Philanthropy Award recognises a business that seeks to promote the welfare of others, especially by the generous donation of money or services to the community and good causes.

Nomination forms are at www.orange.nsw.gov.au/ australiaday or the front counter at Orange Civic Centre building in Byng Street.

Winners will be announced at Australia Day celebrations in Cook Park on Wednesday, January 26, 2022.

THIS WEEK’S ORANGE ART SOCIETY’S (OAS) FEATURE ARTISTS INCLUDE JOHN DOUGLAS, PETER DOUGLAS AND KELVIN HINES. John M Douglas John began working life as a draftsman working in both pencil and ink, but after a life of other technically related occupations, John only began drawing artistically in earnest after retirement and moving to Orange.

John has continued working in pencil and ink, and after joining the Orange Art Society, he began

14 DECEMBER 2 — 8, 2021

exploring other achromatic mediums including, water soluble pencil and brush and ink. The Orange Art Society classes have given John plenty of inspiration to excel and motivation to extend his repertoire.

Peter Douglas As a child Peter loved to draw in pencils, charcoal and ink. As life usually does – ‘Life got in the way’, so art was put aside, however upon retiring, Peter decided to get in touch with his creative side again, and to explore painting. Peter found watercolours as a good start and now acrylics are his favourite medium. Lately Peter has been exploring and enjoying abstracts.

Kelvin Hines Kevin’s love of art flourished from his school days when he attended De La Salle College. His inspirations came from different artist’s including, Maurits Cornellis Escher and he has a real passion for pencil drawings.

His work has won numerous awards and his pieces have featured in various local exhibitions.

Kelvin is currently being kept busy with commissioned requests for his unusual and unique style of art.

Now semi-retired from his own company, and raising three children, Kelvin now has more time to focus on his passion.

The Orange Art Society are celebrating the opening of “The Three Amigos” Feature Artist Exhibition, and you are invited! From 2pm on Sunday December 5. The OAS also have a new exhibition inside the gallery – if the flags are out , head on in and enjoy.

DISASTER ASSISTANCE FOR CABONNE AND BLAYNEY AFTER SEVERE WEATHER AND FLOODING The worst in nature always brings out the best in people!

Arrangements (DRFA), the assistance available may include:

I would like to thank all the SES volunteers, emergency service personnel and residents who rolled up their sleeves to sandbag businesses and homes in several towns these last few days. We saw some fantastic displays of community spirit.

• Help for people whose homes or belongings have been damaged (eligibility criteria apply)

With rain gauges across the region charting record levels, the water has wreaked havoc on local infrastructure, homes, businesses and crops, with the Cabonne and Blayney Shires bearing the brunt of the wild weather.

Given the scale of the emergency, the Australian Government has extended disaster assistance to help these residents, primary producers, small businesses and charities recover from recent severe weather events. Blayney Shire Council and Cabonne Council will also receive funding to cover the costs of cleaning up and restoring damaged essential public assets.

Jointly funded by the Commonwealth-State Disaster Recovery Funding

• Support for affected local councils to help with the costs of cleaning up and restoring damaged essential public assets • Concessional interest rate loans for small businesses, primary producers and non-profit organisations • Freight subsidies for primary producers, and • Grants for eligible non-profit organisations.

For information on personal hardship assistance, contact Service NSW on 13 77 88. To apply for a concessional loan or grant, contact the NSW Rural Assistance Authority on 1800 678 593 or visit www.raa.nsw.gov. au. Information on disaster assistance can be found on the Australian Government’s Disaster Assist website at www.disasterassist.gov.au

My fight for an Australian Government inquiry into dwindling banking services in regional areas steps up this month, with Orange set to host the newly established Regional Banking Taskforce on 8 December. It is the sole NSW location selected to host the face-to-face meetings. A number of Central West bank customers, representatives of community groups and organisations, as well as local councillors will have the opportunity to tell Taskforce members about the detrimental impacts branch closures and service hour reductions are having on them.

In addition, submissions can be made to the Taskforce by emailing regionalbanking@treasury.gov.au or by mail to: Secretariat, Regional Banking Taskforce, Financial System Division, The Treasury, Langton Crescent, Parkes ACT 2600 by 18 December.

HAVE YOUR SAY - GREAT WESTERN HIGHWAY UPGRADE We all rely on the Great Western Highway - as it links the Central West and Sydney. That is why community members are invited to have their say on the environmental assessment and concept design of the transformative highway upgrade.

Made possible with a $2 billion commitment from the Australian Government, the upgrade will help transform the section of road between Little Hartley and Lithgow into a smoother, safer passageway for motorists.

It’s really important that the community has input into the project, so I strongly encourage anyone with an opinion to have their say.

The Review of Environmental Factors (REF) and concept

design will be on display until Wednesday 22 December.

The community can review the REF online at www.nswroads.work/ gwhwestconsult, or at Lithgow City Council Administration Centre and Lithgow Library Learning Centre. Due to the volume of design material, the REF for the Katoomba to Blackheath section of works will be displayed in early 2022.

A community information session will be held online on Saturday 11 December. Face-to-face sessions will be held in Lithgow on Saturday 4 December and on Tuesday 7 December in Hartley.

You can also book a phone consultation on 1800 953 777.

Submissions can be made until midnight on 22 December 2021 via: - The online portal at: www.nswroads.work/gwhwestconsult - Email to: gwhd@transport.nsw.gov.au - Post to: GWH Upgrade Program, PO Box 334, Parkes NSW 2870.

Submissions will be reviewed prior to a comprehensive report being released and the REF being finalised.

VETERAN SURF PROJECT - CAMARADERIE THAT SAVES LIVES It was such a great experience to get out in the water with professional surfer Rusty Moran and the crew from the Veteran Surf Project at Gerroa recently.

This program can be literally life changing and saving for some of those who participate. It brings veterans together, gets them talking, gets them active and gives them something to look forward to each week. It is a truly remarkable program that’s having real impacts for local veterans.

Thanks to those who came along and shared their very personal stories of their service, their struggles, and how the program has helped them. The weather wasn’t great and the surf wasn’t the best, but everyone left with a smile on their face. Legendary US surfer Mike Doyle used to say, “The best surfer out there is the one having the most fun.” It certainly was a fun day!

With an election around the corner, the scare campaigns have started again. Who could forget Mediscare - the false scare campaign about the privatisation of Medicare.

The Australian Government has no plan to force Age Pensioners onto the Cashless Debit Card. We have never had such a plan and we never will. We understand senior Australians have worked hard to help build the Australia we live in today.

The Cashless Debit Card doesn’t even operate in NSW. Don’t believe the scare campaigns!

Garden advice for the big wet WHEN IT COMES TO YOUR GARDEN — IT NEVER RAINS, IT POURS.

With our weather forecast for the coming summer now officially a wet and mild La Nina phase — it’s time to consider some commonsense rules for protecting your garden from the humid climate curses of collar rot, blackspot, and powdery mildew.

While drought-proofing, water retention, and use of covers to protect plants and gardens from the sun, have been the theme for most of the past two decades in the Colour City, horticulturist Mary Ann Mein from Thomsons Garden Centre, says the keen home-gardener should be aware that over-wet gardens can create their own problems.

Orange in particular is prone to a range of wet-weather conditions due to the specific heavy nature of local soils, she added.

“Basically, because a lot of our soils are heavy clay soils, they expand when wet, these heavy soils hold the water for a long time, and that can cause problems for your plants,” she said.

“Because it’s milder, wetter weather, fungal spores spread. You have problems like leaf blights, powdery mildew, black-spot, and root-rot,” she added.

heavily, and don’t put the mulch right-up against the plant’s trunk, you’ll get collar rot,” she added of popular mulches like sugarcane and pine-bark.

The current weather cycle, however, is the perfect time to look to planting new plants, trees and shrubs, Mary Ann said.

Your lawn is another part of the garden where best-practice changes from the hot, dry summers of recent years to the current wet and mild season.

“Because of a milder season, it’s a good season for planting. With cooler weather, there is less stress on the plant when you are planting it out, but don’t plant in the rain, wait until the rain stops,” she added.

“Make sure to compost and use seasoned, aged manure that are well-rotted… all that we buy in is aged and you can plant straight-in,” Mary Ann added.

She said that there are other good gardening tips to ensure that the wet weather doesn’t get your garden down.

“Plant in raised beds, this helps drainage and increase soil mass with organic matter and manure, this will help any water that is there, to run away.

“While you let the grass grow in hot seasons to protect it from burning-off, now you want to keep on top of it, so it doesn’t go yellow underneath.

Busy time in the garden trade, Ailisch Seedsman at Thomson’s Garden Centre.

“If you have a heavy, clay soil, then use of gypsum can be beneficial as well.”

She added that the ways of establishing and protecting your plants in the dry, are different than in the wet.

“The only other thing is, don’t mulch

HOW TO VOTE FOR

“For lawn areas that are prone to staying wet and are not drying-up sufficiently, apply a gypsum and fork the soil to aerate it,” she advised.

Mary Ann added that the advice that you get from your local nursery will serve you well in deciding on the plants, shrubs, and tress that are suitable for your location.

“It’s best to do some research and ask your local nursery person, that’s the best place to go to get advice,” she concluded.

The Rain is Coming to Orange — MELISE DAVIS —

Central Coast trio “Little Quirks” – sisters Abbey and Mia, along with their cousin Jaymi – are making their way to Orange for their first dedicated tour in more than 18 months.

December 10 at Orange Bloomfield Hall, a venue that has developed a reputation for quality live shows and building up a strong following with consistent touring and shows over the last seven years.

Their tour is kicking off just four days after drummer Mia finishes her final year school exams.

Little Quirks have been making high energy folk/ pop tunes since 2015 and are eager to share their music with the Central West.

Little Quirks have rocked the stage at both private venues and music festivals. They’ve even shared the stage with artists including The Teskey Brothers, The Preatures, Ruby Fields, Tim Rogers and Alex the Astronaut.

The LQ band is passionate about performing live, and it’s something they have sorely missed in recent times.

Little Quirks will release a fourth EP in 2022, their first for ABC Music, featuring last year’s folk/pop singles “Florence’s Town” and “Someone to Hold”.

Vocalist and guitarist Abbey Toole said, “We are over the moon to be getting back on the road. After a year of ups and downs, a whole lot of waiting and eating way too many cookies, we are so excited to be playing these shows.”

Their 2018 single “Crumbled” has been a runaway favourite on Spotify with over three million streams, and they have amassed a loyal following for their powerful and distinctive DIY videos on YouTube, including an impressive version of ABBA’s “SOS” – you have to check that out.

‘The Rain is Coming Tour’ will hit Orange on

So, what are you waiting for? You won’t want to miss an evening with Little Quirks. Tickets can be found at www.littlequirksband.com

YOUR LOCAL Funding boost to improve Clergate Road

COUNCIL AT WORK

Nominate a local unsung hero for the 2022 Orange Australia Day awards Australia Day is fast approaching and nominations have opened for the 2022 Orange Australia Day 2022 Awards.

“Orange is a wonderfully giving community.

There are hundreds of unsung heroes in our city whose commitment and dedication makes a significant, positive difference to someone else’s life,” he said.

“We all know someone who goes the extra mile, who gives up their time for the good of others and they deserve to be recognised.”

UPGRADE: Orange Mayor Cr Reg Kidd & NSW Upper House MP Sam Farraway visit the site of the Clergate Road upgrade.

Orange roads are set to benefit from local infrastructure improvements, thanks to the NSW Government’s $75 million Resources for Regions Round 8 program.

Upper House MP Sam Farraway announced $1,335,356 for Clergate Road upgrades, which will deliver stage 2 of the project.

“The upgrade of Clergate Road will include widening from Ralston Drive to Industry Drive, creating a much more efficient freight route for the industrial estate,” Sam Farraway said.

“Clergate Road is an important link to both a growing industrial estate including the giant new Storco project, and a new residential subdivision to the north. This is a critical piece of infrastructure for the growing industrial estate with works set to begin in the New Year.”

Orange City Council Mayor Cr Reg Kidd welcomed the news of the $1.3 million upgrades of Clergate Road.

“This used to be a narrow rural lane, that’s now a key piece of infrastructure through a growing industrial estate. Locals will be delighted that the next stage of the road is about to be upgraded,” Cr Reg Kidd said.

• The Citizen of the Year Award recognises an individual who has achieved something extraordinary, is an inspirational role model to others or who has made a sustained outstanding contribution to the local community.

• The Young Citizen of the Year Award recognises an individual under 25 years of age who has achieved something extraordinary, is an inspirational role model to others or who has made a sustained outstanding contribution to the local community.

• The Community Group of the Year Award recognises a group who has made a valuable contribution to the Orange community throughout the year.

• The Community Event of the Year Award recognises an event that has made a valuable contribution to the community. This

will be determined both in relation to the quality of the event and the scope of impact on the local government area.

• The Local Legend Award recognises a person who has moulded the Orange local community with outstanding, illustrious or renowned achievement.

• The Business Philanthropy Award recognises a business that seeks to promote the welfare of others, especially by the generous donation of money or services to the community and good causes.

Nomination forms can be found on Council’s website or at the front counter at the Civic Centre building in Byng Street.

Nominations will be accepted until close of business on Wednesday 15 December.

The winners will be announced at Australia Day celebrations in Cook Park on Wednesday 26 January, 2022.

FAQs: Q: Does the taxi rank on Lords Place extend further along the street after 6pm?

A: Yes. The taxi rank on Lords Place does double in size between 6pm – 6am.

Drivers are urged to check the parking signage and make sure they don’t park in that zone after 6pm so the taxi drivers can operate to the zone’s full potential and in a safe manner.

Mayor calls on Orange residents to ‘stay the course’ in their COVID response Orange Mayor Reg Kidd is calling on the Orange community to respond to the latest surge in local COVID cases.

“As well as widening the road and upgrading the surface, this project will involve relocating a gas main that’s currently in the road shoulder.

By the time we finish there’ll also be the kind of street lights and kerb and guttering that the community expects from a road of this standard.”

The call came after the Western NSW Local Health District (WNSWLHD) confirmed that Orange had more than 30 COVID-19 cases identified over the last two weeks.

WNSWLHD Executive Director, Adrian Fahy urged everyone in the community to be vigilant.

The Resources for Regions program is part of the $2 billion Regional Growth Fund, designed to support growing regional centres, activate local economies and improve services and community infrastructure for regional communities.

Orange Mayor Cr Reg Kidd believes Orange residents are well-placed to keep up their efforts.

“We’re among the state’s top regional cities when it comes to vaccination rates. That’s a great start but we need to stay the course.”

“As a nation we’re now in this in-between stage where we’re still sorting through how children can be vaccinated. That means, for their sake, we all need to stick with the simple steps that got us this far: using the hand-sanitiser, QR codes check-ins, wearing a mask when we’re required to, getting tested when we feel symptoms coming on.”

“For the families of these thirty cases, especially for the children, we could all do more.”

CADIA PROVIDES OVER $2 MILLION TO THE LOCAL COMMUNITY

Newcrest Mining’s Cadia Valley Operations (Cadia) has provided over $2 million in support and assistance to the local community through its Community Investment Program in the 2021 financial year according to the company’s annual financial report released recently.

Last year, in response to the COVID-19 pandemic, Newcrest launched its Community Support Fund to provide financial assistance to communities that were affected by the challenges associated with COVID-19.

Cadia General Manager, Aaron Brannigan said that through the Newcrest Community Support Fund, Cadia has been able to inject over $600,000 to support the local community through what has been a challenging time.

“Cadia is proud to have supported the local community through a number of initiatives over the past financial year. The Fundraising Beyond the Curve Program helped kick start charities, not-for-profit organisations and associations whose fundraising events were

Orange Aboriginal Medical Service.

Cadia donated a second Portacount® machine to help protect local healthcare workers hampered by COVID-19, while the donation of laptops to local public schools assisted in their remote learning programs.”

The Newcrest Community Support Fund also helped sporting organisations get back on the field with 100 hand sanitiser bollards installed at sporting and outdoor recreational areas, established a partnership with Gotcha4Life to tackle mental health fitness in the Central West, purchased a second Portacount® machine for patient transport across Greater Western Health Service and provided cold storage to the

Cadia’s Community Partnership Program continued its long standing support for local community groups and organisations, with over $600,000 in donations. Major donations were provided to Orange Local Aboriginal Land Council ($66,000), Orange Open Air Cinemas ($55,044), equipment for Orange Health Services ($51,000), and the Grassland Society of NSW research project ($38,950).

“Cadia is committed to being part of the local community and our Community Partnership Program provides a valuable contribution to numerous projects across Blayney, Cabonne and Orange.”

and their spouses make in the community by providing a donation of $250 to the community organisation where they volunteered their time.

The areas receiving most support from Cadia’s Community Partnership Program were Indigenous programs (15%), tourism (15%), health (14%) and COVID-19 recovery (13%).

Cadia’s $2 million investment for the 2021 financial year also included funding towards local roads, support to the Cadia community through the Cadia District Enhancement Project, community contributions and scholarship support.

A full copy of Cadia’s Community Investment Report is available on Cadia’s website.

“The program ranges from supporting large scale projects for agriculture, health, Indigenous programs and tourism through to support for schools, charities and the disadvantaged sector,” Aaron said.

Over $16,000 was distributed through Cadia’s Good Onya program which recognises the contribution that employees

Important things to be aware of when purchasing a property This is Part One of a two part article.

1. What is a section 66W certificate?

Ordinarily as a purchaser you are entitled to a five business day cooling off period after exchange has taken place.

In this period, if you decide to pull out your deposit will be returned to you less 0.25% of the purchase price.

However, some vendors will request that you waive that cooling off period. If you agree to this, you will instruct your solicitor or conveyancer to sign the section 66W certificate – then the contract becomes binding on exchange.

2. What is exchange?

An exchange is a swap (a physical exchange) of the two identical contracts – one signed by the vendor and the other signed by the purchaser. This becomes the contract date which is inserted on the front page of your contract for sale. Exchange is also known as the date you are ‘locked in’ to the purchase. And very importantly, the countdown to settlement begins from this date.

3. What is settlement?

Settlement is the date the property becomes yours! In summary, you (or your bank) hand over the purchase money to the vendor and in return, the vendor gives you the title deed and transfer so the property can be registered in your name. Once the settlement has taken place, the real estate agent will give you the keys to the house.

4. Is a building and pest report important?

Yes! The reason they must be done before exchange is because there is a clause in contracts which says the purchaser accepts the property in its current condition and state of repair. Basically it is too late for you to change your mind after exchange or settlement if the house isn’t in the condition you originally thought it was. A pest and building report will address certain issues so you can make an informed decision as to whether you proceed or perhaps negotiate the purchase price. Pest and building inspectors see things in a house that you often can’t or won’t see when you do your own inspections.

Mental Health REMINDER

While I’ve spoken a lot about men’s mental health in recent times due to the fact that more men die from taking their own lives, it’s really important that I address some facts about women’s mental health, too.

Many are not aware that anxiety and depression is actually higher in females than it is in men according to data from the Australian Bureau of Statistics. This is nothing new, it’s a long term trend.

The impact of mental illness among our young people is also highly concerning, and it’s critical that intervention and support is provided

Voluntary Assisted

Dying Bill

Last week I delivered my contribution to the debate on the Voluntary Assisted Dying Bill 2021.

While I know the majority of people within the Orange electorate support this Bill, I also know that some people do not, and I respect and have considered your opinions.

Ultimately, I believe that while the value of human life should be preserved, those who are in intolerable pain have a right to die with dignity, with their loved ones around them.

I thank everyone who contacted my office to express their views.

on a timely basis.

Mental health issues affect everyone, and particularly after the isolation caused by the Coronavirus, now more than ever we need to be keeping an eye on our friends, family and colleagues. A simple check in, or a catch up over a cup of coffee, is a small gesture that can start some very important conversations that can change lives.

Remember that if you did not receive a copy of my Mental Health Toolkit which provides key mental health contacts throughout the electorate, please don’t hesitate to contact my office.

Glenn’s Push from the Bush I’ve previously mentioned Glenn Atkinson’s impressive plan to walk from Orange Health Service to Royal Hospital for Women Randwick, a distance of approximately 270kms, to raise funds for specialised neo-natal equipment.

But did you know, that thanks your support, Glenn has already raised $103,000 towards his $130,000 goal? This funding will enable Royal Women’s Hospital to receive a humidicrib, and for Orange Health Service to receive a resuscitation cot and a ‘Baby Leo’ Humidicrib (said to be the “next best thing to the womb”).

Glenn has an Ambrose golf day coming up on the 3rd of December which will help raise a fair bit more! A big thank you to everyone who’s gotten on board, and all the best to Glenn on his walk. Check out Glenn’s Facebook page at ‘Glenn’s Push from the Bush’.

Forbes Update After a big sitting week in parliament I managed to get to Forbes last week to check out first-hand the impact of the floods on both the town and local farmers.

In the last 10 years Forbes has been subject to four flood events in 2010, 2012, 2016 and now 2021.

Each flood is always slightly different and this one is no exception. It was slower moving, perhaps due to such significant cropping it had to get through, and went over some country that wasn’t impacted in previous floods.

best crops and vegetables in the world so it was so disheartening to listen to farmers talk of the financial losses they will incur by this latest flood.

All agree that something must be done.

The raising of the Wyangala Dam Wall, promised by this government before the 2019 state election, must proceed for flood mitigation and future water security of the valley.

Many who were looking at bumper harvests this season have now been either wiped-out or considerably downgraded. The Forbes district and the fertile Lachlan Valley grows some of the

Something I hear on a fairly regular basis from constitutes in our regional area, particularly from farmers, is the issue of daylight saving time. It has now been well over a decade since the daylight saving period was extended by six weeks, which was supposed to be a temporary measure but has remained. I informed the speaker that the view of most people in our regional community is that this is too long.

I believe, and I think the general community of regional New South Wales would agree, that it should be shortened, either by four weeks or returned to the original period of two months. The length of daylight saving could be reduced by two weeks either side of the current period. During the daylight saving period, children get up in the dark and travel to school in the dark, more accidents occur as a result not only because it is dark but also because wildlife is around in the early morning such as kangaroos. Furthermore, farmers who may have hired shearers have issues because the shearers cannot start shearing until it is light enough to get into the sheds.

My colleague, the member for Murray Helen Dalton, joined the debate and provided further insight as a farmer herself into the impacts daylight savings on her operations. As she pointed out, “If city folk like daylight savings, they can get up an hour earlier and go and do their stuff.

Daylight savings is based around recreation, not around work. Let’s face it: Farmers keep the State going.”

“In times of uncertainty lets control what we can, lets more than ever, support and shop local.”

This is the sentence that first meets your gaze upon the ‘Orange Supporting Orange’ Instagram page. A page that was set up just last week by Emily Mitchell.

With over 400 followers the page features local Orange businesses and initiatives making it easier to find out how to support the community in a time where we all need a little support.

“I initially created the account because I saw how well businesses were adapting to these ever-changing times and I wanted to support them.” Emily explained, “I thought by pulling together all the information of who was offering what in one place it might make it easier for our community to support them.”

I didn’t know what to expect but I love that it has grown so quickly because it shows

how supportive our community is which isn’t a surprise. This community has always been a generous one looking out for each other and I love being a part of that.”

Emily continued, “Every day the situation is changing and we can only take it day by day but having access to our favourite shops via delivery or pickup definitely helps keep things somewhat normal.”

With many appreciative messages from battling businesses Emily said she hopes the Instagram account helps in boosting sales and most importantly know that the Orange community is behind them throughout this time. What an absolute legend you are Emily, well done.

During Christmas I hang around the house 24 names of Jesus. I have a son who has multiple nicknames but the names I have hanging are not like those. They are not plays on the name his parents gave him or tongue-in-cheek labels that refer to some ‘in’ joke.

The names above my fireplace are a mix of titles and words used to describe Jesus Christ, the one whose birth is at the heart of Christmas and they are full of meaning.

Here are just a few of them and where they can be found in the pages of the Bible: Son of God – Luke 1:35; Light of the World – John 8:12; Immanuel (God is with Us) – Isaiah 7:14 and Matthew 1:23; Prince of Peace – Isaiah 9:6; The Way – John 14:6; Good Shepherd – John 10:11; and Saviour – Luke 2:11.

These are names that point to who Jesus is and why he was born some 2000 years ago. Think about them. He came as a gift to humanity from the God who seeks relationship with us.

The best gift for your best friend!

Summer’s here! The Festive season and holidays are just around the corner - its a lovely time of year.

Our furry friends have been wonderful companions through the uncertainties of 2021. You can show your pets how much you love them in return, by making sure they’re as happy and healthy as can be.

Vaccinations to protect from disease, regular dental checkups and protection from parasites - these are all gifts your pet will thank you for!

Just one bite from an infected mosquito can infect your dog with Heartworm. This parasite used to be restricted to warmer parts of the country, but new research has shown Heartworm is in Central West NSW too. Heartworm is spread by mozzies and is found in wild dogs and fox populations, so our rural working dogs are particularly at risk. Your dog can be protected from Heartworm with a convenient annual injection or with monthly tablets or chews. But its dangerous to start your dog on Heartworm prevention without having them tested for the parasite first. This month, your dog’s Heartworm test (worth over $100) will be FREE when he or she starts on annual Heartworm protection injections.

Cracked stained teeth? Smelly dog breath? There are well known links between poor dental hygiene and bad health in our pets, but they can’t tell us when they’re suffering. Regular dental checkups are vital for the overall health of pets and to protect them from the pain of bad teeth. In December, your cat, dog or rabbit can have a FREE dental check up, plus $50 off any dental treatment.

Worms and fleas love the summer months and they love pets too! Fleas cause skin and health problems to our pets and can spread into our homes. Worms damage the

C health of cats and dogs, causing loss of weight, diarrhoea, loss of energy and anaemia, and can affect humans too.

M This month your pet receives a FREE flea and worm Y treatment when they visit us for a vaccination.

CM Why are vaccinations so important? Orange is a “hotspot” for a horrible doggy disease called Parvovirus,MY which causes severe haemorrhagic gastroenteritis. It’s highly CY contagious, and can be picked up from the ground or CMY even carried on your clothes! Puppies are very vulnerable, K needing intensive care in hospital if they’re going to have a chance of recovery. A simple injection will protect your dog, so puppies should have a series of injections starting when they are 6-8 weeks old. Your precious new pup isn’t fully protected from Parvovirus until after their third needle, so no outside walks or playing with unvaccinated dogs until after that time. After the initial course to protect against Parvovirus and other diseases like canine cough and distemper, your dog will return for an annual checkup and vaccinations, tailored to their needs.

Cats need an annual injection to protect them from CatFlu, feline enteritis, and if your cat goes outside, Feline AIDS. Remember that if your cat or dog is going to a boarding kennels this summer, you will be asked to show an up to date vaccination certificate, or he or she might be turned away. We will send you convenient reminders when it’s time for vaccinations, flea or worm treatments.

Dr Judith and the team want to thank all our clients for their support during a challenging year. We hope that you and your pets enjoy a very special Christmas together – best wishes from all of us at Mulberry Lane Vet Hospital!

PaulTIERNEY 23 X 3 X 52, JACQUI AND THE BATMAN Imagine for a minute we had a Caped Crusader in our midst (we do).

For more than 12 years I’ve had the pleasure of a waffle each week in this wonderful magazine. I wrote the first column in this space on August 27, 2009, and today marks the penning of the 600th column. Writing is both a privilege and an indulgence, and I’m hoping that you’ve enjoyed at least a few of them over the journey.

No writers block yet, so hopefully plenty more to come.

Here are some ‘600’ facts and stats for you...

1. The Australian cricket team has scored a total of more than 600 runs in an innings in 34 different test matches, let’s hope they do it again on a few occasions over this summer as we take on the Poms for the Ashes. We’ll need to have a few big wins to silence the Barmy Army.

2. W ritten as a product of its Prime Factors, 600 equals 23 x 3 x 52, hence the title of this piece.

3. As a lucky number, 600 represents a sign of balance, family, good company, love and romance.

4. I t is also an ‘abundant’ number – meaning the sum of all its divisors/factors is greater than itself, and a ‘pronic’ number – the product of two consecutive numbers – 24 x 25, it’s

got a lot going for it... you might not think this important, but legendary modern Aussie mathematicians like Adam Spencer and Eddie Woo (and me) certainly go crazy for those kind of facts.

Anyway, just like Lord Voldemort was called ‘he who must not be named’, I’m not wasting the words in my 600th column on negativity, corona, facemasks, double-vaxxing or lockdown woes.

I really look forward to a little bit of a Jacqui Lambie-type attitude this time around – pulling no punches, working selflessly (the opposite of which is/was, well...), speaking your mind with no thoughts of saying the right thing because of an upcoming election or party lines. You may not agree with everything Jacqui says, but crikey, you’ve got to admire her style.

You’ve no doubt seen the ridiculous numbers of posters adorning the fences of voting centres, as well as pickets in front yards around the town.

The other thing we could do with is a Batman in our city.

Every time a car or house gets broken into, every time someone litters, every time somebody walks their dog in a ‘no dogs’ zone, every time somebody starts a fight late on Saturday night, every time the fireworks go off (yes, you know why that mostly happens) – the caped crusader is on the scene to set things right.

Like many, I went in early and pre-polled. Difficult and important choices to make with my vote. To the guy who was yelling the name of his party ‘at’ me as I walked in the door... sorry bud, you sealed the deal on me not voting for your crew. I wonder how many other people you did this to and it changed their vote?

Or... maybe we could ALL be Batman, see it as the dawn of a new era, being a little more accommodating to our fellow people.

Once voting is done and dusted, we’ll have new council members and a new mayor. Good luck to you, a few big years ahead. It’s a bit of a ‘dawn of a new era’ type-thing, and I hope you’re ready, because I reckon the people of Orange WILL be keeping you accountable.

We’re very good, but we could be sensational – between the new council and all of us, we’ve got three years to do it.

But it is topical to make mention of the upcoming local elections. These elections are a vital part of our democratic process, ensuring councils across the State are kept accountable to their communities, and give us the chance to help shape the future of our region.

TRADES AND SERVICE BUSINESS PROFILE

QUALITY THE KEY TO SLINCO’S “POSITIVE” POWDER COATING When you’re a professional dealing with other professionals, you want to provide the best service and products possible.

That’s why Glen Attenborough from Slinco Powder Coating puts quality as his number one priority.

of the process is the applicator Stephen Neubauer who is a two-decade veteran of the industry.

Powder-coating essentially involves the use of positively-charged tinting products and paints to provide the best and most-durable finish possible for metal surfaces.

“He’s been doing it for more than 20 years, and he really knows his stuff,” Glen said.

“Essentially, it’s a positive electrical charge at the gun, almost like a spray gun but with both power and air – the gun charges the powder with a positive charge, and this aids adherence to the surface,” Glen explains.

“We can do anything that’s of metal fabrication; utes, trays, trucks, balustrades, whatever.”

While Glen runs the front office, the master

“A lot of clients, they know Steve’s work and they appreciate that. A lot of people, they say, ‘I’ll go to him, I know that quality is very important.’”

The supply chain issues and international trade lockdowns of the past two years have also seen a re-emphasis on quality over cost for many locals, Glen added.

“It hasn’t been this good in a while. What the lockdowns have meant is that there’s now a massive shortage in supply, so people are

turning back to Australia for their materials and trades,” he said.

This has now become the key to any business where much of your customer base are other professional tradespeople wanting the job done right.

“In terms of our processes, quality-control is essential. You see so much stuff from overseas and it’s not long before, say, the paint starts to flake off - it’s simply not made for the long-term.”

Rather than a single-stage process to get the job done quickly and easily, Slinco relies on a best-practice multi-stage process to ensure the best results every time, whether it’s for outdoor garden wrought-iron

furniture, boat trailers, or chrome car wheels.

“With our processes, we sand-blast everything, we then apply a powder-zinc primer which means that anything that you get done by us will last a lot longer,” he added.

“We refuse to cut corners. If someone says, ‘Don’t worry about the primer,’ we just refuse to do it,” Glen added.

“We also have a range of other services available such as sandblasting, CNC Plasma Cutting, 3-D printing, glass frosting, and more,” Glen said.

“Our workshop is at 16 Edward Street, we are behind Fletcher Insulation, if you want to come and see us,” Glen concluded.

Just over 100 acres of beautiful North-Easterly red basalt country, "Beri" has a long list of features that need to be seen to be appreciated.

Starting at the 10 year old brick home that features all the comforts we have grown accustomed to, surrounded by lush lawns and gardens plus spacious formal living area in addition to beautiful enclosed and open-air casual entertaining areas overlooking the farm, "Beri" has it all.

The workshop and machinery shed is just about everyone's dream set-up. With two hi-lift roller doors, full concrete floor throughout, LED hi-bay lights plus an adjoining lock-up room and bathroom and kitchenette, this is the perfect doghouse that any bloke would love to be banished to.

A new bore, multiple rainwater tanks, 1 dam plus frontage to the permanent, spring-fed Weandre Creek all combined provide a bulletproof water supply for man & beast alike.

Sub-divided into four main paddocks all with thick stands of endemic phalaris and sub-clover, 120 cross-bred ewes and lambs are currently lost in the masses of feed on offer.

At least 60% of the property would be considered easy cultivation or hay country where you could mow easily without smashing machinery to pieces.

open forum

And the last word goes to...

“Orange City Life” wants to thank all the great contributors to our Council Game and Open Forum pages that we’ve run over the past few months.

Open Forum has been a way to offer our valued readers the same chance to comment on matters leading up to Saturday’s Council elections that we gave to the Council candidates via the Council Game.

The strong support for both sections have revealed the passion and the interest in the future of our fair city that we at “Orange City Life” share.

The Council Game has now concluded, however

OCLife is keen to know if our readers would like to see Open Forum continue. Over the past few months, some readers have used this forum to share their views on many other topics, not just local council elections.

With that in mind, letters on any topic to our Open Forum are invited – please remember the rules!

Readers are also most welcome to provide their views, concerns and interests on the Colour City in our “Thumbs Up/Down” column.

Oh, and all the best for candidates facing the voters in Saturday’s poll!

Saying, is one thing; doing it, is another!

None of the candidates for the next Council election have explained how they are going to do; what they have said they are going to do! How are you going to improve health, business, tourism, and more?

How are you going to improve business turnover; how are you going to improve the environmental architecture of the town? How are you going to improve the water resources? The job of mayor is not part-time.

Nothing has been said about diagonal pedestrian crossings or a joint-venture between Council and property-owners to paint the town’s CBD in heritage colours to improve business. These are proven strategies in other towns.

If bureaucrats in the public service are taking forever to make decisions, when are councillors going to make decisions?

Nobody can tell me how they are going to fix the problems. All politicians across the three tiers of government throw money at the product of the cause.

Who is going to fix the problem of governments awarding the tender to the lowest bid?

When are engineers going to be on site 24/7 checking that the roads meet specifications?

We have seen the Forest Road works lift at the first downpour of rain. Roads in cul-de-sacs in Orange have completely lifted and never been repaired. The list goes on.

Too many executives having too many meetings with no decisions made with not enough coal-face workers with the right to make decisions at the coal-face.

If you are 55-years-old, you have a leadership role because your creativity is at its highest.

Otherwise, you are at the coal face leading a team of trainees. The young want to learn from the older workers.

There is a group of young mechanics in Orange who do a magnificent professional job but, at times, I require an older, experienced mechanic to sort mechanical problems out.

So, I gather, we will again elect people who want to 48 DECEMBER 2 — 8, 2021

argue all night what should be recorded in the Council minutes?

In the meantime, we will have to wait for the long grass to be mowed next to Orchard Grove Road.

Children walking to school can encounter more plentiful and bigger snakes on their way to school these days as snakes do inhabit suburbia.

I don’t know who to vote for — “None of the above” should be my democratic right!

Ian Donald, Spring Hill

Vote for those candidates with our welfare in mind The impending Council elections and the ‘Council Game’ has this important message: how much do we actually know about the candidates, or even know about the current councillors seeking re-election?

The answer for many is, not much at all; just increasingly-frequent ‘photo ops’ and more recycling of meaningless policies promised last election and not delivered, added to the new commitments from new candidates which, hopefully, will be delivered.

I have some knowledge of current councillors from meetings, seeing their behaviour, and from print media. This inspires a ‘not again’ opinion, with Tony Mileto as an exception.

I do have first-hand knowledge of the revised Orange Residents and Ratepayers Association candidates. That is, all these are intelligent, focused, caring and honest people with the welfare, conduct and efficiency of the Council for all residents foremost in mind.

Other than this group, my voting intentions include Tony Mileto and Jeff Naughton, this leaves three more to choose from a large number, these will be chosen by pamphlets and media articles with the future of Orange firmly at the top of the list.

This is where the ‘Council Game’ has been useful as aspiring candidates’ opinions, ambitions, and policies were all shown so as to help residents decide who to support.

Hopefully, Orange Residents and Ratepayers Association will be among those chosen.

Garry Kind

Are “God” and “Christianity” forgotten by the Candidates?

Are there any locals standing for Council who are motivated by God’s heart, rather than their own ego?

I’m not interested in what religion they are, but aren’t there any God-people left in this town? Why does it feel like ‘God’ and ‘Christianity’ have become taboo words?

As I said, it makes no difference to me what religion a person is, but I do look for Godly qualities of Love and Goodness in the visions of those individuals who are putting themselves forward to lead our community.

I have been relying on the ‘Council Game’ and community social media to get an understanding of what motivates these future representatives of Orange.

Here we are, in the last few days leading up to a very important election, and now that we are seeing the full list of candidates, I’m thinking, ‘Who are some of these people?’

I haven’t seen anything from them anywhere outlining what their goals and ideas are. It’s just the same few who keep us informed of their vision for Orange. A vision I would like to see being based on some basic Godly qualities.

These qualities, unfortunately, are not reflected in some of the candidates’ submissions to the ‘Council Game’ or on community social media sites!

If the thread of negative and unkind comments constantly made by some individuals carries through to a new Council, we will see a divided and inharmonious Council that will find it difficult to function.

Our apolog ies

Diversity on Council Last Saturday’s CWD contained an item in which our Mayor suggested that the number of councillors in Orange could be reduced from 12 to nine.

I won’t comment on the merits of the proposal but, when asked about it, Councillor Stephen Nugent mentioned that such a move risked reducing the diversity of our Council.

Cr Kidd pointed out that anyone can nominate, people can only vote for those who nominate, and that the majority of females didn’t vote for a female. I would certainly like to comment on these points.

It’s true that almost anyone is eligible to stand for election, but that doesn’t mean they can do so. It’s quite an expensive proposition, and you need a certain level of confidence and support to do it. On this basis, it’s just not an option for many people.

It is true that people can only vote for those who nominate – no problems with that statement. The ‘women don’t vote for women’ comment is very strange. Firstly, diversity is about more than men and women – it covers a huge range of factors.

Secondly, of course women (or men) don’t vote for a female candidate just because of her gender, and they definitely shouldn’t do so. If a person is a quality candidate, they should be considered on that basis.

If it also happens that they have a diverse characteristic, then that’s a bonus.

They can offer insights into areas that people without that experience or trait can’t possibly have. Surely that can only be beneficial.

I’m not a fan of quotas and I find tokenistic box-ticking exercises incredibly irritating, but it would be nice if it were easier for a more diverse range of candidates to stand for election.

Frances Kinghorne

Thanks for Council Game My sincere thanks to ‘Orange City Life’ for having this opportunity for candidates to talk about themselves and why they feel they should be on Council.

I have not missed an issue and commented on all manner of things which are recorded on the Refresh Orange Facebook page. I thought I should give an overall summary of why I ask for your vote for Orange City Council.

My name is Steve Peterson. I’m 36 years old and have been a doctor for 11 years, husband for nine, father for seven, and quadriplegic for three. These experiences have taught me many lessons which I hope to bring to council to provide a fresh perspective.

I have lived in Orange since 2014. It’s my wife’s hometown, we have two boys aged five and seven and live on a cattle farm.

open forum – It’s time to have your say

I work as a virtual doctor for small emergency departments in regional NSW. I am also the doctor at the local drug and alcohol detox and rehab. I am on the clinical governance committee with Live Better and teach GP trainees and medical students.

Three years ago, I was hit by car whilst riding my bicycle to work at the Orange emergency department and became quadriplegic.

I still work and volunteer in a variety of fundraising roles with spinal research and local sporting groups.

Everyone on my ticket are young people with schoolaged children, motivated to make this city the best it can be and would be grateful for your vote in Group D. Steve Peterson

A case for supporting visual arts in Orange Few would argue against the role of Council in providing and maintaining sporting facilities. Orange is well-equipped in a range of sports, boasting sophisticated venues for locals and visitors.

Despite the quality of our sporting facilities, it would be unacceptable to expect them to be reserved only for the professional athlete and that amateurs be obliged to find their own premises.

Instead, the inclusiveness and value of sport is recognised in the community and social sporting competitions are welcome to use the facilities.

This, however, is not the case with respect to the visual arts. Orange is fortunate to have an impressive regional gallery and several private galleries, each of which show high-quality work of, at least, regional significance.

Local artists in Orange, with some occasional exceptions, do not have access to facilities in a similar manner by which sports people have access to theirs.

As an election candidate for the Orange Residents and Ratepayers Association group and who also has formal Visual Arts training, I can recognise some inequity in this.

Of course, Council cannot be expected to fund every hobby and interest in the community, however, I would argue that the case for the visual arts is reasonably compelling.

While sport is a unifying, community-building feature of towns and regional centres, the visual arts also serve a similar cohesive purpose.

This is clearly recognised by the current Council, and Mayor Reg Kidd in particular, and is reflected in recent public art proposals.

Further afield, the ‘decorated silos’ movement, hay bales, mailboxes and the ubiquitous ‘big things’ have been seen as unifying a community by expressing something unique about it in visual form.

Visual arts projects have the potential to be tourist

attractions generating considerable income, can serve a diversionary purpose for disengaged and at-risk youth, provide skills and knowledge to the general public, be used as Art Therapy in aged care and psychiatric facilities, and satisfy the human urge to create.

The spin-offs of a greater knowledge of art and design can be reflected in town planning, domestic architecture and gardens (private and public).

I would suggest that a centre of the size and importance of Orange should be a leader in the provision of visual arts opportunities. At present, several incorporated bodies, in particular the Orange Art Society and the Colour City Creatives, do their best to promote the visual arts in premises that are simply not fit for this purpose and are badly ill-equipped.

The problem of exhibition opportunities has become evident to me as two of us and some interested helpers have founded a business that holds occasional pop-up exhibitions of the work of local artists.

Our clients have an opportunity to exhibit and sell their work. However, we only have the capacity to provide the service on an intermittent basis. More is needed.

This has been suggested before, but it is time to emphasise the cultural as well as sporting identity of Orange.

This would involve the construction of a purposebuilt Visual Arts Centre with retail, gallery, café, studio space for rent and workshop areas for ceramics, fibre arts, sculpture, photography, as well as painting and drawing.

This, of course, would be a resource for the regions as well as Orange and it would be expected to generate at least part of its own income through catering, sales, classes and studio rental.

This is a proposal for a visionary Council. I do hope that the incoming Council has the vision of the outgoing Council.

THUMBS UP to the chefs at Lord On Anson. We were there on Saturday, November 13, and the food was great with an excellent atmosphere.

THUMBS UP to Dr Frances Gearon, and also Shannon, Rob, Simone, Sue, and all the nursing and kitchen staff at Dudley Private Hospital for the amazing and thoughtful care of my mother recently. I could not thank them enough for their kindness, sensitivity, and the thorough way they attended to her needs and made great practical arrangements for her when she went home. Thank-you so much!

THUMBS UP to James at Macquarie Alarms for his prompt and professional support on Wednesday, November 10. We so appreciate his efficiency and thoughtful response.

THUMBS UP to Diesel & Blue Doggie Daycare for making my baby boy feel like his normal tidy self. Beautiful job and clip!

THUMBS UP to Kinks Hair and Beauty for another awesome haircut. Legends!

THUMBS UP to Bob Holland for speaking out against those listening to and believing in the character assassinations that are only made via social media gossip.

The time is long-overdue that we treated people as we find them, NOT as others would have you believe! If you don’t know someone who is the subject of the gossip, then you should reserve any judgement!

THUMBS UP and welcome back to James Blacker and his musical organ from the residents of Calare Aged Care. His selection of music is appreciated, and we so look forward to seeing him each month.

THUMBS UP to Chris at Services NSW who spent considerable time trying to sort out our COVID Vaccination Certificates. Your persistence, patience and good humour deserves to be recognised.

SHOW US YOUR THUMBS!—SMS: 0459 022 084 STANDARD SMS RATES APPLY // EMAIL: RECEPTION@OCLIFE.COM.AU // FACEBOOK: INBOX ‘ORANGE CITY LIFE’

THUMBS UP to Courtney from Belle Real Estate for finding my wife and I temporary accommodation at short notice. An absolute life-saver!

THUMBS UP to the guys at Woodward Butchery for being fair and understanding.

THUMBS UP to the person in Algona Crescent who helped out other neighbours with their gravel. Thank-you.

THUMBS DOWN to Council for not taking the street-sweeper down Algona Crescent when they were cleaning other streets in the area.

THUMBS DOWN to the person who ‘keyed’ my car in Byng Street. You obviously don’t care about people’s personal property. Remember, karma bites!

THUMBS UP to Dave from NRMA Roadside Assistance for replacing my flat battery with a smile.

THUMBS UP to the ladies at the Girl Guides Voting Booth recently who provided me with coffee and biscuits while waiting for my car to be fixed.

THUMBS UP to the relaxation of the COVID-19 rules that now allow nonvaxxed local Year 12 students – many of whom are from special needs and religious minority backgrounds – to attend their Year 12 graduation and presentation nights. After 13 years of school, they all deserve this chance.

THUMBS DOWN. I’m loath to bash Orange City Council, mainly because they do, at times, cop unnecessary criticism, but this borders on the ridiculous! The proposed resurfacing of “Conrod Straight” or, should I say, Moulder Street between Clinton and Hill Streets, is at the moment, unnecessary.

Seriously, parts of Dalton, Anson, and Presley Streets (not to mention many others) are in far worse condition.

Whatever the cost of resurfacing Moulder Street is, it should be redirected to more urgent areas.

THUMBS UP to Mike who did an awesome job building a fence for me.

THUMBS UP to all the people on their way to vote who offered me assistance. I am grateful to live in Orange!

THUMBS DOWN to wet mail. When it is raining, could the mail deliverers push the mail right into the mail slot – instead of letting a part hang out – which gets wet and makes the whole letter soggy?

THUMBS UP to the ladies in the paediatric clinic at the Orange Health Service.

Your compassion and care went above and beyond. The hospital is lucky to have you.

THUMBS UP/ THUMBS DOWN Unable to decide just yet. Looking forward to seeing how our new mayor and Orange City Council will communicate with our community. Please take the time to research all candidates for the up-coming elections before voting. We need a new, open and transparent group of councillor to move forward together.

THE THUMBS REPRESENT THOUGHTS AND OPINIONS OF READERS AND DO NOT NECESSARILY REFLECT THOSE OF ORANGE CITY LIFE STAFF. EVERY CARE IS TAKEN NOT TO PUBLISH THUMBS THAT ARE CONSIDERED DEROGATORY OR DEFAMATORY IN NATURE . PLEASE NOTE THAT THUMBS MAY BE EDITED FOR CLARITY, SPACE OR LEGAL REASONS.
