Percy’s set alight! Thirty-four-year-old Dean Vaughan appeared in Queanbeyan Local Court on Friday, charged with malicious damage, break, enter and steal, stealing a motor vehicle and three police pursuits. Vaughan, a resident of the Cooma COSP centre, was arrested in Cooma at 7.15am on Thursday after breaking into the rear of Percy’s Newsagency and setting the shop alight. He was refused bail and will reappear in Queanbeyan Court on June 24. The fire began just before 5am at Percy’s Newsagency, on the corner of Sharp and Vale Streets in Cooma. Two people in an adjacent apartment had to be evacuated due to smoke but were later allowed to return. It took five fire crews about 20 to 30 minutes to bring the fire under control.

floor were encouraged. Ms Monroe reminded everyone that submissions to the review close on June 28 and encouraged those with comments to submit them. She said the panel’s review of local government was now at stage three. Community members who spoke included Richard Wallace, Geoff Bowland, Brad Yelds, John Coles, Bill Smith, Bob Coles, Peter Beer, Robyn Guthrie, John Cahill, Craig Mitchell, Don McDonald, Matt Sullivan, Peter Smith, Martin Hughes and Rogan Corbett. There was support for the idea of amalgamating CoomaMonaro, Snowy River and Bombala Shires from some speakers, although Bombala councillor Brad Yelds said Bombala was ‘dead against’ joining those two councils. He said Bombala would rather be with Bega. Ms Monroe’s presentation talked about creating county councils, which would have representation

from existing councils, such as the mayors. The county councils roles would be to develop policy for regional development, not implement those policies. There was concern from most speakers that this would just create another tier of government. She also said councils with less than 5000 would revert to ‘local boards’, which would give local representation, but not at the same level as local government has at resent. Several speakers said boundary adjustments were need between Cooma and Snowy River Shires, as some properties were within sight of Cooma, but bound by planning and other rules from Snowy River. Snowy River Shire mayor John Cahill said his shore was penalised because 3500 ratepayers were made to pay for services to accommodate 35,000 people, through visitation to the area. He said his council was unable to rate national parks, despite

those parks making millions of dollars in revenue through tourism. There was concern that any council amalgamation would seriously affect employees, with employment numbers dropping. Ms Monroe said legislation provided a three-year guaranteed for employees affected by amalgamations. Former Snowy River Shire Mayor, Richard Wallace, said he had once been against amalgamation, but now thought it was the best way forward for the region. Cooma-Monaro Shire councillor Craig Mitchell asked how Ms Monroe thought ‘bigger is better”. “Usually, better gets bigger by itself” he said. CMSC Director of Environmental Services, Peter Smith, told the meeting the best thing the panel could do would be to cut the red tape which is hampering local government at present. A forum for councillors and senior staff was held at Berridale on Thursday.

St Pats excursion bumps into Sunrise

St Patricks School Year 10 students on their annual Sydney trip last week had an unexpected surprise when they bumped into the Sunrise TV crew. During an unplanned diversion down Martin Place on Wednesday morning after a photo opportunity in Hyde Park, the group noticed Samantha Armytage interviewing a few State of Origin fans outside the Sunrise studio. Samantha attended St Patrick’s many years ago when her family managed Bolaro Station at Adaminaby. A quick chat with her old Geography teacher, St Pat’s Principal Phil Stubbs, resulted in the Year 10 group being invited to be the background smiling faces for the closing minutes of the show along with some questions from Sunrise host, David Koch, about what sort of student Samantha was at St Pat’s. The show’s stars, ‘Kochie’, Samantha and Natalie Barr, invited all the students for a photo shoot and warmly engaged them in conversation and gave out lots of autographed photos. What an experience!

Change for children of Uganda Sue and Michael Sell (pictured) together with the pastor of the Mountain Life Church, Jacy, leave for Uganda on June 26. This will be their second trip, having gone in 2010. The Sell’s have a working relationship with an orphanage known as “Jordan House operation Uganda� in the slums of Kampala at which they are volunteering to do some building work. In 2010, Sue and Michael, together with Heather Hunter, her son Simon, and Jacy, renovated the children’s bathrooms. To do the work, they raised the funds for the materials, namely tiles, paint, glue , with the very generous support of Jindabyne locals. Earlier this year, the orphanage asked for the children’s bedroom/dormitories to have the ceilings lined and the floors tiled. Currently the ceilings consist of a tin roof, and the floor beaten earth and or broken concrete. To carry out this work, the Sells needed to raise $8000 for the materials. They had already covered their own airfares, accommodation and all expenses. So on Saturday evening, June 1, Michael and Sue held a fund raising evening in support of the project at Horizons Bar and Bistro in Jindabyne , when guests were entertained by talented music students from Snowy Mountains Grammar and the Beautiful Imperfection vocalists. More than 140 guests generously bid during a silent auction of products kindly donated by a

number of local businesses. During the evening Michael Sell spoke of the hardship experienced in the slums of Kampala

where he met a kind grandmother caring for nine grand children whose parents had died of AIDS, plus two abandoned children, in a room measuring 4 x 4 metres – a generosity which he compared with the millions given away by Bill Gates who lives in the comfort of his American home. Should you wish to make a donation towards the Uganda Trip held under the auspices of the Mountain Life Church, and be a ‘partner’ in the team in making a difference in one or many children’s lives in Uganda, please contact Michael at michael-sell@bigpond.com. Cash donations are tax deductable. The trip’s progress can be followed on Facebook at Uganda Trip Mountainlife.

You’re a good man, Charlie Brown ‘You’re A Good Man, Charlie Brown’ is an uplifting, fun-filled theatrical production that brings the beloved ‘Peanuts’ comics to life on stage, and in song! The lights are set, the floorboards polished; the ‘Peanuts’ gang are returning to the stage in a revised musical comedy unlike any other. This June 22 and 23, the University of Technology ‘Backstage’ Theatre Society is bringing ‘You’re A Good Man, Charlie Brown’ to the Cooma Little Theatre after their successful run at the Lend Lease@ Darling Quarter Theatre in Sydney. The reputation of the Peanuts comic strip precedes itself. Translated into 21 languages, to a readership of 355 million in 75 countries, the tale of Snoopy and the gang has become a staple part of childhoods around the world. A tale of hope and perseverance, Charlie Brown’s story is often referred to as “the great American un-success story�. Whilst the protagonist has a penchant for self-doubt, an inability to play baseball or even fly a kite, he never gives up. Director Alexander Burge, a born and raised Cooma local, has brought the stories of these precocious children to life in an adaptation of the 1967 musical written by Clarke Gesner. “I grew up in Numeralla and spent most of my childhood and teenage years involved in productions at the Cooma Little Theatre. Needless to say when the opportunity arose to bring Charlie and the gang on tour to perform in my hometown, I immediately jumped at it.�

With a certain poetic licence, Burge has adapted the cast from an original six members to 15. Whilst the script stays true to Gesner’s work, the personalities of the ‘Peanuts’ characters have been resurrected, with Peppermint Patty, Pig Pen and even Woodstock all sure to make their debut. “The script was originally written for a much smaller cast of six but I didn’t like the idea of splitting-up the beloved Peanuts crew and depriving the audience of seeing them all “playing� together live on stage. I believe this adds a new, more elaborate and interactive dynamic to wonderful and brilliantly childish production.� The wit and humour of Charles M Schulz is sure to leave you breathless with laughter, while the catchy tunes of this Broadway musical will put a spring in your step and a song in your heart for days afterwards. Take a walk down memory-lane and reconnect with your inner-child. This production is an absolute must-see for young and old. Join Charlie, Snoopy and their friends for a night of kite flying, baseball, Beethoven and fun. Event Details: What: You’re A Good Man, Charlie Brown When: Saturday June 22, 1.30pm and 7.30pm Friday June 23, 1.30pm Where: Cooma Little Theatre, Uran Street, Cooma 2630 Cost: $15 Student/ Concession, $20 Adult Cost: $15 Student/Concession, $20 Adult Tickets can be purchased at the

Cooma Visitors Centre or at the door.

Member for Monaro, John Barilaro, last week presented a $50,000 cheque to The Hub for new toilet and laundry facilities. Work to upgrade Cooma’s Youth Hub will start soon thanks to a helping hand from the NSW Government, the Member for Monaro John Barilaro announced last week. Funding of $50,000 will be provided under the NSW Government’s Community Building Partnership program. “The funding will be used for a total upgrade of the current toilet facilities; including three new toilets, a disability toilet, space for

a baby change table, shower and change area and a laundry space,� said Mr Barilaro. “The facility is a popular spot for youth in the Cooma area, so it’s important that community assets such as this can be maintained for the use of future generations.� As well as a meeting place for young people, the Hub provides important information and referral services for clients. “Up to 50 people access the Cooma Youth Hub each week for support and assistance,� said Mr Barilaro. “A young person’s parent group, a local disability service and regular school programs are also run from the centre.� More than 1235 community projects throughout the state will receive as a part of $90 million allocated to the program over four years. The Monaro Electorate will share in $200,000 to fund a number of community projects. “There was strong competition for the available funds and a high level of interest from the community with almost 2,500 applications received across the state in total, “said Mr Barilaro. “Local construction jobs and businesses will benefit from the activity as this community infrastructure is upgraded. “The NSW Government is getting on with the job of rebuilding the state by delivering the largest state infrastructure agenda in Australian history – worth some $61.8 billion over the next four years. “I look forward to seeing the benefits to our communities as projects are undertaken and more importantly put into use across the Monaro.�

From page 1 The Captain of the Cooma Fire Brigade Chris Reeks says there was considerable damage to the rear of the business. “There’s quite a bit of mess,� he said. “The area is full of magazines, paper, art supplies and went up very quickly.� Captain Reeks says there is also damage to the ceiling of the building and computer equipment. Leo Percy claims that the cost of the damage is going to be huge. Not only is there extensive damage to computer equipment, stock and to the ceiling but there is smoke damage to most of the shop as well. Percy’s has been serving the local Cooma community for 47 years and has been in Leo’s family for two generations. “We’re flabbergasted. It’s very hard to replace 47 years,� said Mr Percy.

As part of the State Government’s review of the 152 Councils in NSW, the Minister for Local Government has appointed the Local Government Acts Taskforce (The TaskForce) to re-write the Local Government Act 1993. This review is currently being conducted in conjunction with and in context of a number of other significant reviews. One of these involves the recently published White Paper by the Independent Local Government Review Panel for public consultation, titled “Future Directions - Twenty Essential Steps for NSW Local Government.� The Taskforce is also proposing to develop a flexible, principles-based legislative framework, that where possible, avoids excessive prescription, is written in plain language, reduces red tape and is formatted in a logical and easy to use streamlined manner. The Taskforce has consulted widely and has produced an 84 page discussion paper titled “A New Local Government Act for NSW� for community comments on its findings, options and proposals for the principles of the new legislation. This discussion paper is designed to provoke thought and discussion on how the legislation and regulatory regime can be best designed to provide an optimum framework for long term sustainable local government in New South Wales. The discussion paper is available from the Taskforce webpage via www.dlg.nsw.gov.au. In general terms, the discussion paper explores several areas of reform, within an integrated planning and reporting framework, which enables councils to more easily fulfill their leadership role and deliver infrastructure services and regulation based on community priorities. Council is working closely with the government reviews and looks forward to these challenges that assist governance issues and streamlines legislative requirements. These reform protocols involve, amongst other issues, staffing appointments and management, council operations, Tribunals and Commissions, Public land management, Capital expenditure framework and use of technology. Submissions are now invited from the public in response to the Taskforce’s discussion paper “A New Local Government Act for NSW.� Details of how to make a submission are included in the discussion paper on the Taskforce Web site. Submissions will close on Friday 28 June 2013.

Our ‘caring community’ the

postman calls

Some people are trying to excite and confuse the poor old Postman. Every day, the email inbox contains at least one ‘ticket to riches’, sent by unknown persons. This one was a little gem: “Hello beneficiray, I am Helen Uba, and I am informing you that your total fund $5.5million has been converted into ATM master card, base on my agreement with ATM director that your card will only be activated with $60. Your parcel code number (gl-1416). “I have finally registered your ATM master card with DHL courier company this morning after the agreement to pay you via debit card which will allow you withdrawal from any automated teller machine around you. As we agreed, and the delivery will take off immediately you made contact with them based on my agreement with DHL director Dr.David Tanko, Contact them with your delivery information as follow Your Name_______________ Your Home Address_______ Your Id Copy____________ Your County___________ Your Age/Sex_____________ Direct Phone Number____ Your Occupation______ Your amount credited in the card is $5.5million best regards, Mrs Helen Uba”. (sic) Gee, I don’t know – do you think I should? There’s also a Mr Paul who emails regularly with news about an inheritance – he’s from Belfast and the amount is 3,6000,000 English pounds. At least Mr Paul doesn’t ask for the information above. It would be interesting to know how many people, if any at all, respond to these emails and what the repercussions are. The Postman is pretty confident they would not include gaining any money, quite probably the opposite. Well, the snow might have been missing, but the official ski season opening went ahead last weekend. What a pity all that white stuff disappeared the week before. And what a pity the rain that washed it away didn’t make it as far as the Monaro. It’s as dry as here now and not looking good for spring. Time to brush up the rain dance technique, me thinks.

Editor, Aren’t we lucky to live in an area that boasts that its is a ‘caring community’. Sadly this doesn’t ring true. Recently we have had an outstanding example of CoomaMonaro Shires’ level of ‘caring’ for our community – in that two water bills and the rates were all expected to be paid within six weeks and at exactly the same time as the energy bill arrives. The council notices (bills) all have threatening overtones – that there is a ‘daily interest charge on overdue amounts owing and “ - “please note: the instalment amount and due date on this notice are a statutory requirement. They do not constitute an extension or deferment to pay outstanding and/or overdue rates”. Last week South Gippsland Council set a wonderful example of how any ratepayer that is finding it hard to pay can go to the council financial advisor and work out a progress payment plane even a waiver. This is advertised and will undoubtedly mean their monies will

be forthcoming without court cases or even stressed ratepayers. Our ‘caring council’ say that they had a new computer system which prevented the water meter reading December being sent out until just before the next and latest water bill, to be paid within a week of the rates; no mention of an apology, accepting responsibility explanation or plan to alleviate financial stress. Any farmer, pensioner, ratepayer, etc, that cannot pay all this money all at once will eventually become someone in need of charity, etc. Cutting back of food, heating, lighting, medications, will inevitably cause hardship and illness requiring help, homecare, meals-on-wheels, hospitalisation, a downward slide. All preventable if ‘caring concern’ held out a reconciliatory compassionate alternative to their stressful, threatening and unhelpful current attitude… wouldn’t that be pleasant? Three cheers for a ‘caring council’. Hazel McKenzie-Kay Cooma

Congrats to MHS Editor, Congratulations to the outstanding efforts put in by the staff, students and friends of Monaro High School. Last week’s three performances of “Singing in the Rain” was a complete sell out for good reason. Each performance was most entertaining and professional and gave us all a moment of reflection. It seems like just yesterday that we were all comforting these same little children at pre-school who now stand proudly on the stage and belt out a classic song! Friends and families of all those involved can be so proud of what our local, public high school has achieved. Moving our own children from a

private school to Monaro High was initially an anxious decision. It is with great pride that we can eat our own words! Our personal experience of devoted and personal instruction to our two children in private education has been more than carried over at Monaro High School. As parents we are continually overwhelmed with the personal dedication of the teachers and staff. Well done Monaro High and thank you again to those staff and friends that made it such a fantastic show. Penney and Nick Tonini Cooma

Business calls for NSW budget to support jobs

GREAT INTEREST RATES ON CARS FOR INDIVIDUALS & BUSINESSES Don’t waste your valuable time dealing with the banks, call us today and we will do all the work for you! Call Tony Rayner 0418 625 312 Melody Carne 0409 781 662 Maxine Linnane 0422 225 162

NSW’s peak business organisation, the NSW Business Chamber, has outlined a five point plan of action for the upcoming NSW Budget to support jobs and grow the economy. 1. Abolish remaining IGA taxes to reduce the cost of buying and selling small businesses; 2. Increase payroll tax threshold to encourage small businesses to employ more staff; 3. Provide a tax rebate to business in cross-border regions to help them compete with Queensland and Victorian-based businesses; 4. Contribute to a trial of a small business credit guarantee scheme to help business secure finance needed to expand; and 5. Explore co-operation between OSR and ATO to reduce red tape and costs.

“The NSW Business Chamber is proposing some modest reforms that are affordable and that use existing pools of funding to support our goals of helping business through this difficult transition in the national economy and keeping Australians in jobs,” said Stephen Cartwright, CEO of the NSW Business Chamber. Abolish remaining IGA taxes “The NSW Government deferred the abolition of the Intergovernmental Agreement taxes (GST agreement) to fund its sign up to the Federal Government’s education reform package. “These are some of the state’s most inefficient taxes which Victoria and Queensland have already abolished. Their continued deferral adds further costs by denying businesses a level playing field with other states. “The NSW Government needs to honour its promise to the business community by abolishing these taxes.

Increase payroll tax threshold “Payroll tax is a tax on jobs. It unfairly falls on businesses that are labour intensive and does not change to reflect the economic health of the business, unlike company tax. “The NSW Business Chamber is proposing that the NSW Government divert the remaining funds in its payroll tax rebate scheme, which has had less than a 50% uptake, and use these surplus funds to increase the payroll tax threshold. “Keeping as many businesses as possible out of the payroll tax trap is a positive step towards keeping employment steady.

The Child Care Rebate is NOT income tested

Provide a tax rebate to business in crossborder regions “NSW businesses along the Victorian and Queensland borders find themselves at a competitive disadvantage. “If the NSW Government can’t make NSW’s tax system more competitive with other states then an alternative option is to provide a tax rebate for businesses along the border to reflect the lower taxes their cross-border competition are benefiting from. “The NSW Business Chamber proposes that the NSW Government’s undersubscribed Regional Relocation Grants Scheme could provide the funding for a tax rebate for border businesses. Contribute to a trial of a small business credit guarantee scheme “Many businesses are struggling to get credit from financial institutions. That is a bad outcome if we want to grow the economy and create more jobs. “The NSW Business Chamber is proposing that the NSW Government, together with the Federal Government, co-fund a trial of a credit guarantee, similar to that operating in the United Kingdom, to help more NSW businesses secure finance. “In the UK, the government guarantees the losses of lenders up to 75% of the principal on loans up to a maximum of £250,000 in exchange for charging a fee to the borrower. An evaluation of the scheme has shown a net economic benefit to the UK economy – for every £1 contributed; there is a £1.05 return to the economy.

The Australian Government offers two types of financial assistance for child care: the Child Care Benefit and the Child Care Rebate.

The Child Care Rebate is not income tested.

It pays up to 50% of your out-of-pocket costs. Up to $7,500 per child, per year.

The Rebate helps to cover the costs of approved child care, including out of school hours care.

If you use approved child care for work, study or training, you may be eligible.

Explore co-operation between OSR and ATO “The NSW Business Chamber has long advocated the benefits of the OSR and ATO pooling their resources and creating one collection point for taxation. “Businesses currently deal with different rules and definitions and a multitude of red tape and compliance requirements when paying federal and state taxes. A central collection agency with single definitions would save businesses precious time and reduce compliance costs.”

Changes at Community Development Workshop Cooma CWA At the June meeting of Cooma CWA, it was resolved that due to unforeseen circumstances, the annual curry luncheon would be postponed from Friday June 8 to Friday September 13. A number of members are on the sick list and some have injuries. They are all wished a speedy return to good health. A further reminder of the Handicraft and Cultural Day at Bredbo on Tuesday June 18, beginning at 10am. Also, the FACTS day at the Cooma Ex-Services Club on Monday, June 24, from 9am. This day is to give members an idea of the procedures of CWA meetings.

Meetings changed

As from July, the meeting schedule for Cooma CWA will be changed. Instead of friendship hour, the business meeting will begin at 11am. This will allow the members to have a free afternoon. The next meeting of the Cooma branch will be held on Monday, July 8, at the Cooma Country Club. All interested ladies are most welcome to attend.

In conjunction with community members and services across the three shires, ADHC (Ageing, Disability and Home Care) held an Asset Based Community Development workshop at the Cooma Multi-Function Centre last Wednesday. The workshop identified the resources within the community to help better support each other. This was a great opportunity to build on the strengths within the community and find new and innovative ways to work together.

The workshop was open to agencies, community groups and volunteers across the Monaro. That was across all sectors such as; older people, youth, children & families, health, employment, education, housing, disability, transport, volunteering, arts, sports, hobbies, community, charities, The Workshop was facilitated by Dee Brooks, a passionate

and highly energetic trainer, keynote speaker and event facilitator who currently works with the Family Action Centre (FAC) based at the University of Newcastle.

Snowy Scheme modernisation In 2006 Snowy Hydro embarked on a substantial modernisation program to maximise the value of the Snowy Scheme hydro-generation assets. The program was to deliver engineering solutions, which underpin our trading strategies and increase our flexibility in responding to future market needs. In 2012, a major milestone of the Scheme Modernisation Project was reached with the completion of the Tumut 3 Power Station upgrade. Snowy Hydro has completed the upgrade of all six generating units at Tumut 3. The generating capacity of the station has been increased from 1500 megawatts (MW) to 1650MW, but can deliver up to 1800MW under ideal conditions. This 20% increase was achieved by installing a new turbine runner on each unit. The new runners not only provide an additional 50MW capability, but also a 3% increase in efficiency, meaning more power output for the same water flow achieved by using sophisticated computerised fluid dynamics and modelling by Toshiba in Japan. However, the 20% increase in generation capacity (or output), was not possible without new digital control systems that have replaced the electro-mechanical components. The new system collects large amounts of precise data involving flows, pressures, temperatures and electrical quantities which is analysed to ensure maximum efficiency and reliability is achieved. The modernisation of Tumut 3 Power Station has cost just over $80 million for the replacement of the turbine runners and control systems as well as the refurbishment of the electrical and mechanical components. Planning for this work commenced over 11 years ago and the successful implementation has been the result of a highly competent Snowy Hydro employees and contractors working together safely and productively. We particularly appreciate the many local businesses that have been involved in the project. New turbine runners and controls have been installed at Guthega Power Station at the headwaters of the Snowy River. Modernisation work has also commenced at Murray 1 Power Station near Khancoban late in 2012 and will continue until 2024. The Modernisation of Tumut 1 and Tumut 2 Power Stations near Cabramurra commences in 2014.

Amateur hunting in national parks THE LATEST raises concerns Wednesday June 12, 2013

Ranger LINE - UP... Go Further ALL FOR IMMEDIATE DELIVERY

XLT DOUBLE CAB 3.2 Lt, 4WD, Manual

SAVE

$$$$ Lisa Ashurst Last year, State Parliament passed legislation which will allow licensed amateur hunters to shoot in a number of NSW national parks and reserves and, according to the Game Council NSW, approximately 400 declared state forests and crown lands will grant volunteer shooters access under the Game Councils hunting licence system. The deal was initially struck on 27 June 2012 when the NSW Government agreed to the bill as part of a deal with the Shooters and Fishers Party, who agreed to support the sale of the state’s electricity generators in exchange for hunting rights. Shooters MP, Mister Robert Brown, claimed at the time that the use of volunteers in the culling of feral animals in state forests had been effective in the past and believed it should also work in the parks, but opponents of the bill share a strong belief that the deal struck with the Shooters and Fishers Party is more about facilitating the sport of hunting on public land and has nothing whatsoever to do with conservation, claiming that no scientific evidence exists to support the notion that recreational hunting actively reduces the population of pest species. Supporters of the bill however believe a regulated hunting system, like that under the Game Council NSW which requires hunters to be trained and accredited to hunt within strict limitations, is necessary and will curb indiscriminate hunting in parks and reserves. As of March this year, several national parks and reserves have been flagged for trials of the volunteer pest animal control program, with the Game and Feral Animal Control Amendment Act 2012 placing the Minister for Environment and Heritage in charge of deciding where recreational hunting will be allowed, however the parks will not be closed while hunters are in the area which raises concerns in the community regarding public safety. Parks in the Snowy and South Coast region under consideration for the program include Kosciuszko National Park (excluding the ski fields) and the South East Forest National Park. The Government intends to support the legislation, which will allow volunteer pest control (shooting) to take place in declared areas of the national parks which have been identified as having a feral animal problem, but the Minister for the Environment will determine when, where and how volunteer pest control is to be conducted and states that it will not be permitted in declared wilderness or World Heritage regions or in or near metropolitan areas. Hunters will be required to hold a restricted licence from the Game Council

but to get it they will need to undergo training and abide by a strict Code of Conduct. The Minister also said that areas are to be based on public safety and the rights of other users. The National Parks Association, which opposes the bill, has expressed grave concerns regarding hunting in parks and reserves, fearing the initial areas identified for hunting to be just the beginning and expressed further concerns that it will expand into additional parks. The Association also believes that giving free reign to amateurs to hunt feral animals in national parks presents an enormous concern regarding animal welfare as well as a safety risk to park staff and visitors should amateur hunters get it wrong. In June 2012, NSW park rangers went so far as to take industrial action via work bans in an effort to force the Government to put an end to recreational hunting in national parks, with park staff being asked to refuse to supply information to the Government and to avoid involvement with licensed shooters. Several community groups also oppose the bill and have been working towards having the unpopular legislation repealed, citing an incident which occurred on ANZAC Day this year in the Alpine National Park, near Licola in Victoria, as supporting their concerns. The incident involved the report of a deer hunter narrowly missing another hunter which lead to police urging hunters to be a lot more diligent in identifying targets before firing. There are also major concerns regarding the safety of native animals which many fear will fall victim to indiscriminate hunters and while heavy fines will be imposed on any hunter who kills a native animal, there are questions as to how it would be policed. Further concerns regarding the mix of hunters and park visitors, especially in remote parks, raises questions on issues of general supervision and policing. Many people believe that current feral management programs are more effective and expressed concerns that the public will feel threatened by hunting activities in national parks, however the Game Council NSW believe that training and licensing of hunters accredited to hunt in the parks will be effective in controlling feral animals. The National Parks and Wildlife Service apparently spends around 15 percent of its resources on managing feral animals and weed control and volunteer shooting is not exactly new, being already allowed in Victoria, South Australia and in New Zealand.

Cooma Crew return home -Kathy Manthey The last week went by very quickly. We rode from Port Lincoln to Lyndoch in the Barossa for our final rest day. Some riders spent their day off visiting Birdwood National Motor Museum, others went on a winery tour and some visited Maggie Beers for a cooking demonstration and lunch. We stayed at Lyndoch Hill the home of Chateau Barossa and an amazing antique collection. We then headed around Adelaide to Mt Gambier and then along The Great Ocean Road. Unfortunately we struck our first rain of the ride which made the sightseeing a little less pleasant. Out ride through Melbourne was through very heavy rain and we were all relieved to arrive in Lakes Entrance to get dry. A scenic day along the south coast to Batemans Bay for our final night together. Some of the riders who had participated in the 2010 ride had come to join us. It was quite nostalgic.

Sarah Engledow is to be congratulated on creating a fabulous multi-faceted portrait of Hilda Rix Nicholas. The familiarity of the landscapes and characters presented make this a must see exhibition for the local Bombala/Delegate people. The exhibition will be at the National Portrait Gallery until August 2013. Article courtesy of the Delegate Doings.

Tony is worried. His wife, Anna, isn't coping with their newborn. Anna had wanted a child so badly and, when Jack was born, they were both so happy. They'd come home from the hospital a family. Was it really only six weeks ago? But Anna hasn't been herself since. One moment she's crying, the next she seems almost too positive. It must be normal with a baby, Tony thought; she's just adjusting. He had been busy at work. It would sort itself out. But now Anna and Jack are missing. And Tony realises that something is really wrong... What happens to this family will break your heart and leave you breathless.

We all know that Australia is an enormous country, but to have seen so much in such a short time is difficult to describe. Emotions were strong as we crossed the finish line with TV cameras filming and a sizeable group cheering us in.

TIPS FOR REDUCING WOODSMOKE THIS WINTER • When lighting a cold heater, use plenty of dry kindling to establish a good fire quickly. • Use several small logs rather than one large one and stack them loosely so air can circulate. • Keep the flame lively and bright. (Wood will smoke when you first light it) • Open the air controls fully for 5 minutes before

and 15-20 minutes after reloading your heater • Check the chimney regularly to see how well your fire is burning. • If there is smoke coming from the chimney open the air supply to your fire. • Clean or have your chimney cleaned every year to prevent creosote build-up.

There is no doubt Property is the Answer, most people who have Financial Freedom or at least are comfortable with Financial Independence got there from property, they may have had a business or a job to create cash flow, but they invested in growth assets to create their financial position today. The good news is YOU can too! Why? You can do it yourself and you may do o.k. over time, but like many you may invest in headaches, stress and money pits. But if you empower yourself to make rational decisions with the know-how, you will avoid the traps and mistakes other DIY investors make. Over the past 5 years in business in no doubt the toughest time in decades to run a business we have developed a tried, tested and proven formula that gives our clients the empowerment to make these rational decisions to assure their own success. I am going to share with you briefly now the 7 Steps to Wealth with Certainty program. Step 1- Education – our clients receive this with an on-line video series, in a 1 on 1, Webinar, or an Information Night. (We will be running an information night in Cooma in a few weeks, we’ll keep you posted). Education does give you the power, you are informed and you can act when ready. Step 2- Personal Prosperity Plan – What is your Time Line, when would you like to retire or at least have the choice, and what is your personal, wants, needs and goals short term and long term. This is not buy 3 houses in 7 years for example it’s what these houses will bring you. For example, Short Term - pay off your family home put your kids in the best schools, Long Term Retire at 55 and be able to travel when you want to and do what you want when you want comfortably, or it may be more outrageous like own properties in Ski Resorts and on the Beach and drive a flash car or have the big fishing boat you have always wanted. It is all about you and what you want, as everyone is different, but if you know what you want you will stay on track to get it and property is the vehicle that will get you there. Once you know this you have the first phase of your personal strategy, or as we call it your Personal Prosperity Plan. During Step 2 we will answer all your questions and provide personal education, again everyone is has different knowledge. But it is extremely important you get the 7 Critical Elements to successful Property Investments and how to eliminate risk. You can do it and gain maximum returns I will continue on next week with step 3,4,5,6,and 7.

Last Tuesday the Member for Monaro John Barilaro presented the Raglan Gallery board with a $3000 cheque courtesy of the NSW Premier Barry O’Farrell. “After the break in, in October last year I presented the gallery with a personal cheque for $1000 after $700 was stolen,” said Mr Barilaro. “I encouraged the gallery to apply for funding to improve the security at the premises and the request was granted. “The gallery, which showcases e unique work of artists in the the onaro, is housed within the oldest Monaro, maining building in Cooma, dating remaining ack some 150 years. back “I’m pleased the Premier saw fit to upport this important community support sset.” asset.”

Amateur hunting in parks Continued from Page 13

Proudly 100% locally owned newspaper The Monaro Post and Members of Tourism Snowy Mountains.

In NSW there are 234 national parks, 418 nature reserves and 147 state conservation areas and out of these, 34 national parks, 31 nature reserves and 14 state conservation areas have been chosen to allow conservation shooting, which already takes place in most national parks in NSW, including the Royal National Park as it is one of a number of measures used by park staff and contractors to control pest animals. Volunteer shooters however will not be permitted into the Royal National Park under the new program. Under the program, amateur hunters will be required to register their hunts and be approved

prior to proceeding as well as having to report their results in order to gain future hunting approval. It has also been stated that the areas within the parks where hunting is approved will be restricted and the number of hunters in any given area will be limited. Responsible shooters and those in support of the program believe it will help to stamp out illegal hunting but communities in general are not happy at the prospect and surveys show a high percentage of NSW residents do not support amateur hunting in the states national parks and reserves, believing it will only encourage undesirable elements, be detrimental to recreational park users and pose a very real threat to native animal populations.

NSW Farmers welcomes Coles’ decision to distance itself from extremist group NSW Farmers has welcomed the announcement by Coles that Animals Australia charity bags will be withdrawn from sale. The association’s President Fiona Simson said many farmers across NSW had contacted us about their concern that a major supermarket was helping a radical animal rights and activist group to raise funds. Animals Australia is a pro vegan group but its activities affect Australian farming families and Australian jobs. Ms Simson said: “We represent thousands of grassroots farmers across the state, the vast majority of ingent whom are already meeting stringent d who national welfare standards and recognise that safe food means healthy and happy animals.” “Many farmers supply Coless and his is other supermarkets and this why so many of our farmers have ons. spoken out against Coles’ actions. ming “We have 44,000 farming ods families in NSW whose livelihoods mers depend upon consumers purchasing the produce they work hard to grow. “NSW Farmers understandss why umers Coles wants to give consumers choice and we support the consumers right to choose.. But

unfortunately groups like Animals Australia are only interested in limiting that choice and that is something we farmers cannot support.” Ms Simson said the association and individual farmers in NSW work with credible bodies such as the RSPCA to ensure farmers continue to meet stringent animal welfare standards. “I commend the lead that National Farmers’ Federation took on this important national issue and all the farmers and agvocates who got behind farming groups like ours on this issue. It is impressive what our industry can achieve when we are united,” she said.

Abattoir surveillance finds liver fluke in local sheep Abattoir surveillance in some small abattoirs in NSW and the major ones in Victoria has uncovered an alarming rate of lines of sheep from this authority infected with liver fluke. This discovery is surprising considering the high level of liver fluke control in the district’s cattle. It would appear that the wet weather has done more than simply raise the barber pole worm threat. An adult sheep needs only a single liver fluke to cause it to lose weight. Prime lambs with one or more liver flukes cannot reach their full potential in live weight. Quite often, if they have untreated liver fluke they may die from the

burden. The indirect fluke life cycle in sheep is identical to that in cattle. So the strategic cattle control measures should work well in sheep. Fluke should be kept in grazier’s minds especially when the season starts to dry out. When this happens the sheep will chase the green pick and often this is found in contour banks and seepage lines. If the ewe has a lamb at foot then both animals are in danger of picking up liver fluke. Such an event occurred near Queanbeyan in 2001 where quite a few weaners died after being taught by their mothers to eat the green pick on the contour banks. Similar feeding could be happening now. The choice of drenches for fluke is starting

to shrink. Resistance to triclabendazole in liver fluke is spreading in the Cooma area and is starting to move outside into Bombala and Braidwood. All being well you should drench for fluke a couple of weeks after the frosts have started. When the frosts arrive the liver fluke snail burrows into the mud to hibernate and no new liver fluke larvae are released into the environment. You should use your best fluke drench because you do not want your sheep to enter winter with a fluke burden. Next drench your sheep for liver fluke around New Year to clean up the parasite burden acquired during springtime. It is recommended not to use your best drench at this time.

If you haven’t drenched for liver fluke yet you should do it now. For further advice please contact your local LHPA office Cooma 64521122, Bombala 64583055, Bega 64921283 and Braidwood 48422536.

Dung beetles set for release CSIRO scientists are in the process of breeding two species of dung beetles for an initial release in September 2014 - the first time a species will be introduced to Australian pastures in more than 20 years. Their names may be bigger than their bodies but the onthophagus vacca and bubas bubalus beetles were specially chosen for their voracious appetite and spring activity, according to Meat and Livestock Australia project manager Cameron Allan. MLA is funding the project as a long-term strategy to improve pasture productivity. Allan said different species of dung beetles were active at different times of the year but southern Australia currently lacked a species that was active in late winter and early spring.

“Producers in this region are missing out on the benefits of dung beetles at a time when pastures are actively growing and at risk of restriction by dung pats,� he said. “When established, these two species will provide a broader suite of dung beetles for Australian producers and will play a role in healthier soils by breaking down dung to release nutrients during the growing season.� CSIRO scientist Jane Wright said the introduced dung beetles were being processed in CSIRO’s Canberra quarantine facilities to avoid the importation of exotic pests and diseases. “Researchers placed the first round of dung beetle eggs (from adults imported in May 2012) into 5717 hand-rolled dung balls

and will repeat the process for the second importation this May,� she said. “Over the past year, nearly two tonnes of dung have been consumed by dung beetles in the laboratory during the process of rearing the first generation of Aussie-born beetles, synchronising both species to the southern hemisphere season and feeding new adult beetles. “Next year, we will need at least five tonnes to feed our growing lab colonies.� Climate models will be used to identify five initial release sites across Victoria, South Australia and southwest Western Australia.

Schute Bell wool report The smallest national offering in 12 months combined with a depreciating Aussie dollar resulted in the market bouncing back after last week’s decline. Sydney selling over only one day this week was strong but it was the Southern region hopefully setting the tone for next week. Selling in isolation on Thursday the Melbourne market continued to strengthen with Merino Fleece wool closing up to 30 cents dearer for the week. 22,895 bales were sold for the week with a miserly passed in rate of 2.9%. Major buyers included Qld Cotton, Lempriere and Techwool. The smallish national offerings are set to continue until the end of the season topping out at around 35,000 bales in the last week of June. AWTA test data released on Monday has the Australian wool clip up 2.9% compared to last season but there was a large drop of 9% in the amount of wool tested in May re-enforcing the current small offerings scenario. The Eastern Market Indicator has now risen 8% since its recent low in early May. Not surprisingly the Aussie dollar has fallen by the same amount against the US over this time frame. Meaning the wool market in unchanged in US dollars.

This week’s sales 33,365 bales are expected to be on offer nationally with 10,335 in Sydney. Schute Bell, Wool Auctions, Goddard and Monaro Wool are selling on Thursday 13th June.

Wage increase impact on farming The Fair Work Commission has granted a $15.80 per week pay rise to 1.5 million low-paid workers, sparking fierce debate among Australian industry groups. In a submission to the Fair Work Commission in March, the National Farmers Federation called for a $9 per week increase, including the superannuation levy increase of $1.50. While the lobby group was pleased with the outcome, it said there was a fine line between balancing the needs of employees against the rising costs to agriculture employers. NFF chief executive officer Matt Linnegar said although the minimum wage increase was higher than NFF had

proposed, the result was still a better outcome for Australian farmers than the union demand of a $30 per week increase. “In our submission we stressed to the commission the need to maintain balance between the needs of workers and the ability of small businesses, including farmers, to absorb higher wage costs at a time when they are already battling tough drought conditions and an even tougher economic climate,” he said. The decision, handed down on Monday, is lower than the increase in 2012, largely as a result of lower economic growth nationally, a tight federal budget and the pending rise in superannuation. Linnegar said with farmers across Australia struggling to maintain their financial stability in the face of continued dry weather conditions and other challenges, the increase to the national minimum wage had the potential to create a further cost burden to the agriculture industry. “If Australian agriculture is to remain competitive internationally, we have to limit the already rising costs of doing business,” he said. However, he acknowledged the importance of providing a wage incentive that would encourage more Australians into work in the agricultural sector. “Our sector is facing a long-term skilled labour shortage and so any move that helps us attract and retain our valuable labour base is crucial,” he said. The National Retail Association also holds concerns over the national wage rise. NRA CEO Trevor Evans said while

people outside the business environment would no doubt argue 2.6% was not a major cost impost, it was in reality the latest in a long line of extra costs burdens, including higher energy prices, the carbon tax, award modernisation and spiralling insurance premiums. “Furthermore, this will not be the only increase in wages this year, with other increases occurring due to the transition to the modern awards and the government increasing the superannuation levy,” he said. “For some it will mean reducing staff numbers or cutting hours simply to make ends meet. “For other businesses, after all the hits to retailing in recent years, it may be the final blow that forces owners to close the doors.”

Cooma Reserves 26 all draw with Bega After a five week break between games days, the Cooma Reserves travelled to Bega for what was and always is a tough day out against the Roosters. As expected after a few weeks off, the team started a bit rusty, with some basic handling errors and probably fair to say, not quite as focused as expected. Luckily, it did not take too long for the guys to click into gear and find their feet, as the Roosters came out blazing with their typical rough house tactics, seemily looking to knock heads off, rather than playing football. Thanks to some rugged defence in the middle of the park, by the likes of Daryl Baines, Jason Brazalitis, Scott Lloyd and Jono Clarke the stallions pack started to regain the dominance, which helped the team settle and get back into a more productive structure. The reserves side was boosted by the return from injury of Jono Clarke in the forwards and the very elusive Tim Williams at fullback. The experience of these two added great value to the team all day, with this pair setting up

the first try of the match, with a great burst by Jono up the middle of the ruck, followed by a great offload to Tim Williams in support to score under the post. A very settled and reliable kicking game by five – eight Mitch Hynes, was a key factor to the Stallions structure on the day, continually turning the Big Bega pack around. Mitch followed his good all-round game up with some great pressure goal kicking to keep Cooma in the game at crucial stages. With a couple of good tries to Scott Lloyd, Jason Brazalitis and Tim Williams the Cooma boys put themselves in with a great chance of coming away with the victory. It came down to the final minutes of the game where, Bega had a good run of possession and field position to put Cooma to the sword as the Stallions tried to protect a 4 point lead. On the final play of the day the Bega managed a try right on the siren to level the scores. With a conversion kick, about 20 metres out and 20 from the post, fortunately for Cooma the ball hit the post and was waved away to leave the scores locked

at 26 -26. After a good tussle all day some may say a fair result, but the players seen it more as the one that got away. With a couple of tough matches coming up against Eden, Moruya and Tathra let’s all make the effort to get to training. We need to work on our structure, fitness and discipline, which I think will put us in good stead for the upcoming matches and the rest of the year. I think all players will agree, these areas all need some work, as I’m sure we all have learnt something from the weekend. All should be proud of your efforts on the day. Best for the Stallions Tim Williams 3 pts, Daryl Baines 2 pts, Scott Lloyd and Keith Robinson 1pt. Players player went to Daryl Baines in his first game back, with his dominance in both attack and defence. A good effort by all the players, A special thanks to the, managers, strapping staff, water runners and the

couple of juniors for backing up on the bench, appreciate you all giving up your day to travel away with us. Also good to see alot of the Cooma locals in the crowd, always good to have our supporters at the game,

Fillies win tough battle with Bega The Cooma Fillies defeated the Bega Chicks on Sunday in their closest game of the season, 16-4. In spiteful conditions, the Fillies had their defence and patience tested when they took on the girls from the lower side of the Brown Mountain. Running into the sun in the first half, the Fillies came out firing. Kirrily Carberry took the first hit of the game, setting the tone for what would be a competitive battle between the two clubs, and after a solid opening attacking set, the Fillies found themselves in good field position. Early mistakes from Bega allowed the girls to attack the line early and with a perfectly weighted grubber from Alicia Bolton, Georgie Clarke planted the ball down over the line out wide to collect the first try. This spurred the Fillies on and despite rough play from the Bega side, the Fillies, through the attack of Patrice Ingram, Kristy Nichols and Anna Steel, kept the ball rolling. Jade Lee caused headaches for the Bega defenders, shimmying through the

line to score under the posts, and with the conversion from Bolton, took the score to 10-0. Abby Schofield was punishing in defence and positioned herself masterfully for kicks close to the line while Maree Ingram answered the hits that were put on her with a dominant attacking game. A line break from Monique Ingram continued to propel the Fillies forward in attack and following this, Jade Lee sidestepped past fullback Joccoaa Rogers to score again under the posts and extending the lead to 16-0. Bega began the second half strongly but with the added pressure of needing three converted tries to get on top, were unable to cross, giving away a penalty in attack in their first set of the game. Bolton and Maree Ingram continued to steer the team around the park and the Fillies played it safe, completing their sets and working as a team. Brianna von der Burg broke the line out wide and flirted with the sideline before being caught by defenders, while Cassie Pinner worked hard in attack. Meg Bracher was controversially denied a try in the corner to extend the lead

further, and mid way through the second half, the Fillies were still looking dominant. Tracy Frazer defended with all her might and Teresa Dunn continued to provide good support in attack and defence to all her teammates, assisted by Patrice Ingram who followed the play and refused to let Bega through. Alana Nichols held her ground in defence and ran strongly all game, but it was the Fillies’ teamwork that gave them control in attack and defence. With minutes remaining, Bega crossed close to the posts through five-eighth Kezie Apps, but were unable to convert. At full time the battered Fillies team ran out victorious, 164. Tension was high during the game and Bega’s frustration resulted in mistakes early in the tackle count but the girls from Cooma kept their wits about them and answered on the scoreboard, with their strongest performance of the year. Points this week went to Patrice Ingram (3), Abby Schofield (2) and Meg Bracher and Kirrily Carberry (1). Players’ Player was awarded to Jade Lee for her masterful attack and dignity during the course of the

day. Next S u n d a y the Fillies take on the Eden Tigerettes for the Women in League round, which should be another great day of football at the Cooma Showground. Cooma Fillies 16 (J. Lee, 2, G. Clarke; A. Bolton 2/3) def. Bega Chicks 4 (K. Apps; J. Rogers 0/1)

Regional netball carnival

Stallions’ Firsts fighting 28-26 win

On, Sunday June 2, Cooma’s Under 13’s and Under 15’s Netball Representatives travelled to Bega, to compete in their Rep Carnival. Both teams were up against other teams from the Eurobodalla, Merimbula and Bega Shires. The day started off wet with girls finding it hard to keep there feet on the ground, but with the wind, the courts soon dried out. The carnival consisted of many rounds with games been broken up into eight minute halves with a one minute turn around. Both teams under the guidance of their coaches Lara and Brooke, worked really hard on the day. They continued to maximise their use of the court, and many of the games went goal

The Stallions travelled to Bega to take on the roosters who are presently sitting on top of the table. A tough encounter was expected and the game did not disappoint. After a period of softening up the Stallions were first to score through a try to Jake Schofield in the corner this was converted by Zach Smith and after 15 minutes Cooma were in front 6 nil. The Stallions look to be in charge at present and they could have quite easily gone ahead 12 nil but a spilled ball under the posts made for a turning point in the game. Bega recovered from this and got their second wind and in the space of 10 minutes scored three tries including one off a blatant knock on to lead 16 – 6. The Stallions did hit back right on half time through a try to Mitch Clarke off a clever Zach Smith kick. The half time score was Bega 16 – Stallions 12. The first 10 minutes in the second half was all Bega as they scored a couple of easy tries to kick ahead 26-12. With 20 minutes remaining a big turning point in the game came for an intercept from Jake Schofield. Bega were well on attack and the final pass was intercepted by Jake who had to run 90ms to score and get the Stallions back in the game. With 15 minutes to go

for goal. The girls found this carnival to be really enjoyable, as they continued to push themselves against the opposition, their passing skills meet the mark, and their goal conversion rate was higher than that of the previous carnival. The 15’s Division, sweating out for second place for the day, only to lose it on a count back. B o t h teams would like to thank their dedicated parents for providing transport and the cheering squad on the side lines. Both teams have a couple of weeks break, before they head to Arawang in the ACT for their next carnival on Sunday June 23. Pictured, Cooma under 13s Jacinta Clark and Sophie Litchfield in defence.

James Boller strolled over next to the post and with the conversion the game was in the balance with Bega leading 26-22. However the Stallions would not lie down and Stallion young gun Jack Williams steamrolled and skipped over three Bega defenders top score levelling the game with the conversion to come. Zach was cool under pressure and converted the try giving the boys the lead 28 – 26 with six minutes on the clock. Bega had a chance to level the game with a penalty attempt from 30ms out and next to the post, but the pressure was too much and the attempt was waved away. The Stallions were able to hang on for the final two minutes and came away with a season defining victory over the table leaders. In a great team effort all played well with the best and fairest points going 3 points Sam Dowsett, 2 points Todd Williams and 1 point was shared between James Boller and Jake Schofield. Players player went to James Boller. The guys are on a roll at present and face Eden at home this Sunday in all four grades with the first game kicking of at 10:30. We hope to see a good crowd there to cheer on the Stallions and Fillies and make money for breast cancer and the McGrath Foundation. LTPM/11/00292 LTPM/13/00425

Cooma Fillies pull on their pink socks for McGrath Foundation The Cooma Fillies are pulling on their pink socks and getting ready for their home game this weekend against Eden where they will be raising money for the McGrath Foundation. Pull On Your Socks is the McGrath Foundation’s grassroots rugby league fundraising initiative, which allows footy clubs across the country to share in the excitement of the 2012 Harvey Norman Women In League Round (22 – 25 June) by purchasing McGrath Foundation Pink Footy Socks and fundraising for the McGrath Foundation. All funds raised will help the McGrath Foundation place McGrath Breast Care Nurses in communities right across Australia and increase breast awareness in young women. This Sunday June 16 Cooma Fillies will be playing a home game against Eden in all four grades. All ladies who attend the game will make a donation to the McGrath foundation instead of paying entry fees. The club is also donating $10 for every Fillies try scored and extra if it comes from a set play. Not only that but the club will also be raffling a hamper on the day full of lovely ladies products donated by Your House, they will have donation tins set up around the showground on the day and they are holding a pink themed high tea for all the ladies attending the game. Local Breast Cancer survivor Liza Dyball and McGrath foundation Nurse Bronnie Taylor are on board and are both very excited about the day. “They’re a fantastic bunch of people and it’s a fantastic cause, hopefully the community will support it,” said Bronnie Taylor. Team organiser Alicia Bolton is encouraging everyone to come along on the day, bring a friend and make a donation. “It’s just a great opportunity to celebrate the work that all our local ladies do for the club including the players.

Michelago sports clubhouse James takes top spot in zone team extension

Sports enthusiasts in Michelago are soon to enjoy the benefits of a new clubhouse thanks to a NSW Government’s Community Building Partnership grant, the Member for Monaro John Barilaro said. The $30,000 grant will be used to extend and renovate the existing building. “I am always delighted to be able to help with the improvement and upgrade of sporting facilities in Monaro,” said Mr Barilaro. “I personally have a strong background in local sports and I understand how much of an impact these groups can have on bringing communities together. “I’m more than pleased that the NSW Government has seen fit to financially support this community building project.” Sports clubs have a history of bringing communities together in a healthy and family friendly environment. More than 1235 community projects throughout the state will receive funding

as a part of $90 million allocated to the program over four years. The Monaro Electorate will share in $200,000 to fund a number of community projects. “There has been strong competition for the available funds and a high level of interest from the community with almost 2,500 applications received across the state in total,” said Mr Barilaro. “Local construction jobs and businesses will benefit from the activity as this community infrastructure is upgraded. “The NSW Government is getting on with the job of rebuilding the state by delivering the largest state infrastructure agenda in Australian history – worth some $61.8 billion over the next four years. “I look forward to seeing the benefits to our communities as projects are undertaken and more importantly put into use across the Monaro.”

At 19 years old you would assume working 65 hours a week at two different businesses is enough but not for James Ewart who is also working hard to become Cooma’s next gold medallist in clay target shooting. His win in the southern region shoot last weekend has given him top spot in the zone team. Earlier this year James proved himself in his chosen discipline Double Trap when he won the Australian Junior Commonwealth Title at the Australian International Sports Shooting Nationals in Brisbane as well as being placed third overall in Australia in the Australian Youth Nationals for Shooting in Sydney. Last month James took up an even greater challenge when he decided to compete in the Australian Shooting Cup at the West Australian Gun Club in Perth. James competed in an open competition and was amongst some of the best shooters in Australia, including Olympic Gold Medalists Russell Mark, Suzy Balogh, Michael Diamond and Laetisha Scanlan. James didn’t win but came eighth in Double Trap out of 20 people and came 15th in trench shooting out of about 60 people, a very good effort for a 19 year old shooter from Peak View, Jerangle. On the two days leading up to the event James had the chance to practice in Sydney and in Perth and he says that he practiced very well but wasn’t able to keep his rhythm in the competition. “I didn’t win but I definitely won in terms of learning. It’s very hard to stay in your own rhythm and keep your head clear when you’re standing next to gold medallists like Russell Mark who shoot so much quicker,”

he said. “I also met up with Suzy Balogh, who’s a trap shooting gold medallist originally from Queanbeyan. Our family has known her for a while and she wants to train me at the end of the year.” James has been shooting since he was twelve and began shooting in the discipline of down the line (DTL) and field and game. “In down the line I tried double rise, which is quite similar to double trap, and I realised I was good at it. From there I tried Double Trap and won the Juniors in Sydney the first time I competed in it in 2011,” James explained. Because Cooma doesn’t have the facilities for Double Trap shooting, James has to travel to either Canberra or Sydney to train. Because of the expense and the travel time this means James only gets to train a maximum of twice a month. “A lot of it is in your mind, when I’m not physically training I try to mentally prepare myself. It’s all in your head, if you don’t have a clear mind when you’re aiming at a target you have no chance of hitting it,” James explained. From here on James will continue to train and compete when he can. In August he will be travelling to Sydney to compete in the Australian Shooting Grand Prix. James would like to thank his employers, Bracher Timbers and the Alpine Hotel for making it possible for him to compete, by so generously giving him time off. He would also like to give a huge thanks to Nicki Tonini of Cooma Crash Repairs who kindly sponsored James by providing his return airfare to Perth.

Our shooters right on target Two of the Monaro’s local shooters have excelled at their chosen sport in recent weeks. Both Mark Corbett (top left) and James Ewart are presently at the top of their game. Berridale shooter Mark Corbett has won the National Skeet Handicap

Championships at Wagga last month. Mark has been shooting for most of his life, but took up American skeet shooting more seriously about six years ago. He shoots at the Berridale Gun Club, but also has to travel to Canberra or Wollongong for competition. Mark has also competed at shoots in

Melbourne and Tasmania. He practices weekly and his two children have also taken up the sport. His recent win in Wagga involved 150 shots, over eight different stations, with 25 shots per round. James Ewart won the overall opens gold medal at the Southern Zone shoot last
