The Bugle 30 January 2016
A fortnightly celebration of people and places on the Upper South Coast of NSW
Serving the communities of Kiama, Gerringong, Jamberoo, Kiama Downs, Minnamurra and Gerroa and now at www.thebugleonline.com
Concert for Kiama: come and be counted Community concert to show depth of support for keeping Kiama independent As the process of deciding whether Kiama Council will be able to stay independent grinds on, the Keep Kiama Council Local Committee has organised a protest rally at a time to suit the whole community. Some of the area’s leading performers including bands John Littrich and the Water Runner, No Such Thing and The Kiama Pipe Band, singers Penny Hartgerink and Sean Emmett, and comedian Dave Evans have volunteered their services
for the Concert for Kiama. The concert format will alternate live performances with information about the consequences for the residents of Kiama, Kiama Downs, Gerringong, Jamberoo and Minnamurra if the NSW Government proceeds with its proposal to force Kiama Municipal Council to merge with the City of Shoalhaven. “We have already had one community meeting attended by well over 1000 concerned residents,” says
Committee spokesman Nick Hartgerink said. “But we wanted to do something different at a more familyfriendly hour, when families with young children could come out and join in. “We encourage everyone to come along, have a picnic in the park, be entertained and also be informed about just what we stand to lose as a community if this forced merger goes ahead. “Kiama Council has been a great supporter of cultural events over many years
Bollywood comes to Kiama Bemused residents of Kiama have been caught up in the phenomena that is Bollywood, as a Mumbai-based crew came to the area to film The Return of Sardaar Ji, the sequel to a hit movie. Locations have included the Honey Farm, Ocean Groove in Terralong St, Jamberoo Pub and Terragong House. Locals have been engaged as extras, sometimes when just passing by. The Bugle’s photographer, David Finlay, went to take pictures at Terragong and ended up as an extra - playing a press photographer! Our former Crossword compiler, Margot Law, spent two days on set as a farmer attending a lavish party to show off the Rococo Walker poses for a selfie with a delicious crops grown with the help of a Continued p 4 Bollywood cast member

Chris, baby Ellis and Julia O’Hara will be attending the concert. “We have dealt with Council on issues that were important to us and they listened,” says Julia. “Our voices just wouldn’t be heard in a much bigger council area. I’ve lived here all my life and want to make sure we don’t lose the level of services that we are used to getting, and the opportunity to have a say.”
and we risk losing that in a forced merger. We thought a concert in Hindmarsh Park would be a way of demonstrating the great things we have in this community and what is at risk. “We have local artists who have performed at Kiama’s iconic annual music festivals that Council supports, the Kiama Jazz Festival and Folk By The Sea, as well as circus entertainer Dave Evans who, with his wife Tamara, puts on the annual KISS Arts Festival.” John Littrich and the Water Runners will be performing a special song they have written to highlight community concerns
about the NSW Government proposal. Speakers will address different aspects of the forced merger, providing information on how people can make submissions to the Government expressing their opposition to its plans. “We’ll be inviting Premier Mike Baird and Member for Kiama Gareth Ward, and hope they will come and hear the voice of the community,” says Nick. “It’s going to be a lot of fun, but with a serious edge.” Details: Sunday 31 January, Hindmarsh Park, 4-7pm
Latest detail on Council’s ‘fitness’ Council’s February meeting has been brought forward to Tuesday 2 February, so resolutions can be made before the Public Hearings on the proposed merger with Shoalhaven Council. The business papers for the meeting are now available at kiama.nsw.gov.au They include a copy of the consultant’s report on Council’s Fit for the Future status. The Council meeting can be watched live on its website, from 5pm.

Another treat for classical music lovers The Chamber Philharmonia Cologne has once again included Kiama in its tour itinerary and is coming back to town with a powerful new program featuring works by Vivaldi, Pachelbel and Paganini. ‘Classical music the world over’ is the motto of this German group, sponsored by Mercedes Benz. Luckily for us they are happy to play in a village church or the Sydney Opera House. “They speak so highly of the acoustics and the general ambience in Kiama’s Christ Church,” says Dennis Koks. “Our little white church on the point is a perfect setting for their music, so they keep coming back.” The musicians in the Philharmonia
want to inspire as many people as possible across all generations to enjoy classical music. They give around 300 concerts each year around the globe.

Shoalhaven formally opposes merger ‘in current form’ A special meeting of Shoalhaven City Council has resolved to opposed its forced merger with Kiama Municipal Council. In her Mayoral Minute for the meeting, Joanna Gash said, “My view is this merger proposal, presented in its current form, contains several anomalies, statement of financial processes and rating proposals that could well jeopardise Shoalhaven City's capability to grow and retain its Fit for the Future status. “The merger proposal does not address complex planning, rating, administrative and infra-
structure issues arising form the different sewer and water supply arrangements in the two.” She went on to say, “In my opinion, therefore, the current merger model is unworkable as no long term benefits have been explained.” The meeting decided that in the event of a merger proceeding, Council would be in favour of four wards and twelve councillors, plus directly elected Mayor (continuing the current arrangement). Shoalhaven City Council has a population of 100,000 spread through 49 villages and towns.
Figures put together by Shoalhaven Council show the difference in size of the LGAs and the amount dedicated to various cultural services in both areas: Shoalhaven Kiama Population 97,694 21,047 No. of capita/ouncillors 7,515 2,339 Population Density: capita/sq km 21.4 81.7 No. of public halls No. of public libraries Recreation & Culture Expenditure/capita Library budget/capita

Gareth Ward: Get involved in the process The Member for Kiama, Gareth Ward, says he is working behind the scenes to present the best case he can against the amalgamation. “I have said right from the beginning that I believe our communities are very, very different,” he says. “I encourage people to get involved in the process by registering to speak to the Delegate at the public hearings. Keep to the ten heads of consideration that exist in the Local Government Act so that the Delegate will consider your submissions. {Eds note: listed in last edition} “We need to give the Delegate the evidence in a methodical, rational and sensible way. We need to do everything we can to present the most cogent sensible case.” Having met the Delegate, Greg Wright, Mr Ward believes he is approaching this in a very professional manner - an impression also taken away by Kiama councillors after their meeting with him.
How to have your say The Delegate will hold a Public Inquiry into the merger proposal at two sessions in Kiama on Weds 3 February. You need to register if you wish to speak at one of the sessions or even just to attend the sessions to hear what others say. Call 1300 813020 to register or do so online go to www.councilboundaryreview. nsw.gov.au Written submissions The closing date is 5pm Sunday 28 February
Blue Haven is more than a business Mayor Brian Petschler has met with residents of Blue Haven Retirement Village to address their concerns over the proposed merger. At a meeting attended by 150 people, Cr Petschler assured residents their legal rights would be protected if any merger went ahead. He also assured residents that the Council was pushing ahead with its plans to redevelop the Kiama Hospital site into the Centre of Excellence in Aged Care, which would see the nursing home relocated. Secretary of the Blue Haven Retirement Village Residents’ Committee, John Hetherington said Blue Haven residents had some
concerns with the amalgamation. “Over the years the current Council has shown a very caring attitude to all residents of Kiama not just Blue Haven. “Residents here have a close relationship with the managers of the complex and the councillors. “They fear that relationship would be diminished if we merged into a much larger body.” Cr Petschler said “Blue Haven is an important asset
Johnny Warren Cup celebrates the love of football Jamberoo will be overrun with 780 soccer players and their supporters next weekend, as they gather together to celebrate the spirit of the game, personified in the late Johnny Warren. “Teams keep coming back, as it is a very special event where you get to remember Johnny’s contribution to the game and catch up with your mates,” says organiser Jamie Warren. “There is no prize money, no organised entertainment but great fun. Three teams from Sydney’s Brazilian community bring an extra carnival flavour to the gathering.” It starts at 8.30pm on Friday 5 February, and the finals are at 5pm on Saturday. Go along and feel the love.

on our balance sheet. It doesn’t cost ratepayers a cent. We have run this as an independent business without affecting ratepayers and we think we have been very successful at it. “But more importantly we are dealing with people lives. Blue Haven is not an asset like a water supply or a grader. We want to make sure residents lives continue in the way to which they have come accustomed.” Shoalhaven does not operate aged care services.
Survey results loud and clear Kiama Council commissioned IRIS Research to survey residents to get an independent gauge of the community’s attitude to the proposed merger. Five hundred and four residents were interviewed by telephone, producing the following results: • The Kiama community overwhelmingly (92%) rejected the proposal to amalgamate Kiama with the Shoalhaven, across both sex and age groups. • When residents were prompted further, 9 in 10 (89%) residents prefer Council to remain an independent council, believing (87%) Kiama Council best understands and represents their community interests. • More than 9 in 10 (93%) residents don’t believe amalgamation will benefit the local community. • Consistently across the four questions residents have strongly rejected the idea of amalgamation in general, and amalgamation with Shoalhaven City Council specifically. A sample this size has an error rate of just +/-2.2%.
Bollywood comes to Kiama fabulous Indian fertiliser. One of the owners of Terragong, Simon Milner says they had fun, “We had sports cars, machine guns, Mr Whippy vans, people on horses and someone being pushed out of a window. “I can’t wait to see what the movie is like.” They filmed at Terragong for four days, and are still in the area at the time this goes to print. Kiama’s brush with fame continues with the news that a segment of Germany’s Next Top Model, complete with Heidi Klum, has recently been filmed at Bombo Headlands. Left: Director Rohit Jugraj

New novel from Peter McAra Foxground’s Peter McAra doesn’t fit the stereotype of a romance novelist, but eight years after he quit his job teaching marketing at Wollongong Uni to write fiction full-time, he’s just had his sixth novel launched. The latest in his series of Australian historical romances, commissioned and published by global publisher Harlequin, Lessons in Loving is set in the New England Ranges. It follows the struggles of a young governess to teach her handsome but near-illiterate employer, a wealthy young land baron, the basics of literacy so he can woo his heartthrob, a fetching young English gentlewoman who’s rejected him because of his lack of ‘culture’. His first published novel, The Vintner’s Letters, soon hit the best-seller lists with great reviews, and is now in its third edition. Details: Available on-line as an ebook from leading online book shops

Kiama welcomes its new citizens Six women were officially welcomed into our community at a nationalisation ceremony on Australia Day, three from England (Jo Price, and Clair and Lily Simpson), and one each from Scotland (Eileen Gallagher), the United States (Sarah Brown) and South Africa (Catherine Davina). Some had migrated here with their families, while others had married Australians. The touching ceremony began with a Welcome to Country by Gerry Moore, whose mother came from Kiama. He explained the tradition of the Welcome and said that he chooses to be involved with Aust-

ralia Day, rather than see it as a day of protest, because he believes we can remember the wrongs of the past but still move forward as a community. The Australia Day Ad-
dress was given by local optometrist Susan AngNgo. She told the moving story of her family’s refugee experience. It gives an insight into what it’s like to grow up as the child of refugees,
and how she has been taught to give back to the community. The ceremony ended, new and old citizens tucked into a spread of lamingtons, scones and sandwiches. Bonza!
Gerroa’s Catherine Davina is now as Australian as her husband and son.

Over 200 people packed the Leagues Club auditorium for a fun filled trivia marathon to raise funds for Adam Regal. Just over $15,000 was raised on the night. Unlike other fundraisers which have been for medical research into Motor Neurone Disease, this one was to help the Regals themselves. The organisers want to give a huge thank you to the Leagues Club, major prize donor: the Kiama Golf Club, and the many other sponsors that gave vouchers, prizes and cash donations. Mark Redding's table was victorious, with Linda Long's table picking up the lucky draw barbie pack. A huge thanks to the Blowies and Blowettes (from Kiama Rugby Club) who toiled all night. The biggest thanks go out to all of the trivia buffs who dug deep during the evening and to our wonderful communities for their generosity.
Despite a wet start, the Kiama Show was a great success. The winner of this year’s Kiama Showgirl is Lucy Marsden, shown here with the other entrants Amelia Murphy and Courtney Soper. Lucy will now proceed to the zone, and then possibly state, judging.

Greetings from the Australian War Memorial in Canberra. Australia in the Great War is the new permanent exhibition at the AWM covering Australia's ANZAC involvement in the First World War through all the major battles. Entering into the exhibition you cannot help being overwhelmed with the quality of military items and personal effects on display. The letters home, bullet dented helmets and photos from the front line really bring home the reality of life on the battlefront. For anyone wanting to educate themselves on the ANZACs, this is the place to visit. The battlefront dioramas are incredibly lifelike and give an amazing 3D overview of

Green Day Out in Gerringong Preparations are well under way for Gerringong Golf Club’s major fundraising and charity golf day, The Green Day Out. As the club is a voluntary run, not-for-profit organisation, without poker machines or a large membership to fund course improvements, it relies heavily on fundraising and community support. “This event provides funds to assist in keeping Gerringong Golf Club one of the most beautiful courses on the coast and wholly owned by the members,” says Wendy Cutting. “Any donations of items for prizes, raffle or auction are most welcome.” This year, a portion of monies raised will also be donated to The Gerringong Committee of The Children’s Medical Research Institute. Since 1959, the committee has fundraised close to $1.9 million to assist in medical research into many children’s diseases and cancers. A three person Ambrose tournament (open to all players, with or without a handicap) will be played on
each major conflicts. Having read books on Gallipoli it was interesting to see a 3D depiction bringing it all together. I was impressed with the easy-to-use touch screens at each display window that allow you to select a particular item and have all its relevant information pop up on the screen (they've thought of everything with a large print option and alternative langu-ages available). I cannot stress enough how interesting and thought-provoking my wander through the Australian War Memorial has been... And as its free entry, and so close to home, I might come back for another look around! Ursula, Kiama Downs
