While Italy and the United States battle for supremacy on the rugby field, its wines will go head-to-head off it, as part of a new event added to the Game On festival. The First Fifteen Wine Competition will pit the top aromatic wines from Italy and the United States against those from Nelson, with guest judges jetting in from the visiting nations. Nelson WineArt manager Gisela Purcell says the event is a fantastic opportunity to see just how Nelson wines compare to top wines from renowned wine-growing countries. The competition is the latest event to be added to the Game On festival, a Nelson City Council event that will see a number of events happening around the region, while the Rugby World Cup is played. Main attractions already on the festival calendar include a re-enactment of the first game of rugby played in New Zealand, between Nelson College and Nelson Rugby Club, Fanzones to watch the latter part of the tournament in the city centre and the Nelson Arts Festival. While wine judging is the most prestigious part of the competition it won’t be just the judges that get to taste the wine. A degustation dinner, tutored tasting of winning wines and a new release of Nelson wines will give Nelsonians, as well as tourists, an opportunity to taste the region’s top drops.
Fire message sinking in as call outs fall Andrew Board A big drop in the number of call outs for Nelson fire fighters is being put down to the safety message sinking in, says safety officer Rob Dalton. There were 640 call outs for the Nelson brigade in 2010, down 91 from the previous year and with figures pointing in the right direction Rob says he is pleased but is far from popping the champagne.

Rob says a big push towards more smoke alarms will hopefully drag the call outs down even further. “Years ago we used to say if you had one [smoke alarm] in the hallway that was great but now you should have about five.”

“Opera doesn’t do much for me. My wife has been and says it’s a great experience, but no, it’s not for me.”
“Yeah I’m going. I don’t know much about it, but I’ve seen the posters around, although I was driving at the time.”
“Yeah I’m going. I went to it last year and it was a lot of fun and we’re going to do it all again this year.”
“Hell yes! I’m working there. I think it’s a wonderful event for Nelson and Nelson should definitely get behind it.”
Performing arts centre back on agenda A decision on whether Nelson will get a Performing Arts Centre is set to start again this week. A report on a proposed Performing Arts Centre is due to be discussed at a Nelson City Council meeting this Thursday. It follows an intention from Councilors’ to include a proposal for a Rutherford Park Development in the Draft Annual Plan. The report outlines the process for the project, which includes a proposed Performing Arts/Conference Centre, and contains some estimated costs. Mayor Aldo Miccio says estimated capital costs for the whole project are currently at $58M, to be spread over the next four years. “But that also includes a significant redevelopment of the entire Rutherford Park complex which would include the proposed Trafalgar Centre northern-end upgrade, a conference facility, improve-
ments to the Maitai River Walkway, and a standalone performing arts venue. “There’s been so much time and effort spent on this issue over many years. We believe, as a council, it’s time to make a final decision either way. The feedback we receive from Nelson residents during the Annual Plan process will really help us to make the right decision for our community. I urge everyone to have their say and be part of the decision making process on this important issue when we release the draft Annual Plan for comment next month.” At the end of the process, in late June, council will decide whether or not to proceed with the proposed project. If council decides to go ahead at that point, detailed design work and the subsequent consent processes would come next with construction beginning in the 2012/13 financial year.

BEST BREW: Nelson barista Rie Oike was crowned top barista in the region at the annual Top of the South Barista Battle on Saturday. Photo: Phillip Rollo.
Nelson barista is coffee champ It’s official, Rie Oike makes the best coffee in town. She only entered for the experience, but the La Creperie barista is now the coffee queen of Nelson after being named the winner at the latest Top of the South Barista Battle. “Unbelievable. I mean, I still can’t believe it,” Rie says on her victory. A love for coffee was the reason she became a barista in the first place and it was that love which lured her to the competition at the Playhouse on Saturday, hoping to touch up on her on skills as well as see what her competitors could do. In the barista battle, contestants have 15 minutes to make four short blacks, four cappuccinos and four signature drinks for the sensory judges to taste. Rie’s signature drink included an asian

red bean, commonly used in asian desserts. The sweet berry was used in a paste. Sensory judge Hayden Thompson says Rie had a very good understanding of exactly what the judges were tasting. And knowing what the consumer wants is Rie’s secret to making the best coffee in Nelson. “You have to think about the customers. Because I love coffee too and I want to drink good coffee, so I keep trying to make the best coffee.” Along with a huge trophy, Rie gets free entry in to the national championship in Christchurch next month. She will use the next month perfecting her skills thanks to sponsors Pomeroy’s, who have covered the national entry fee. You can try the best coffees in Nelson at La Creperie on Halifax St.

Green thumb starting young Planting, growing, watering and even recording weather patterns – it’s all in a days work for some Nelson youngsters. Close to 20 children, aged 4 to 13, entered the Kid’s Home Garden Competition, organised by Waimarama Community Gardens and sponsored by Nelson City Council. The competition was established to encourage gardening children to care for a one metre plot and recored what they did and the results have been quite fascinating says organiser Biddy Myers. “Their diaries showed the whole journey from pre-
paring the soil, to sowing seeds, then watering and waiting, impatiently, for the plants to grow. There were a few plants that wouldn’t thrive despite their care, some that got eaten by other creatures, but mostly their efforts were triumphant and the rewards satisfying.” Of the five who were awarded “excellent” Flo Bailey, 5, took out the special award for her diary. The other four top gardeners were Josh Greer, Mitchell Andrews, both 9, Ben Willis and Reuben Grant, both 7. All the gardeners were presented with an award at the com-
munity gardens two weeks ago. Biddy says their gardening wasn’t just a passive experience. “They were the deciders of what to grow and in charge - definitely working on their project with their parents was a bonus for both parties.” The additional activities included writing a poem, recording the weather, making a portable growing box for the family that was moving house, setting up a waste watering system with purchases from the recycling centre, plus cooking and eating the vegetables that were grown.
GREEN GROWERS: Those that entered the Kid’s Home Garden Competition; Kirsteen O’Neill, Nina Grant, Charlie Cuff, Kaio Lart, Lara Edmonds, Jessie Workman, Matthew Edmonds, Mia Faulkner, Alice Sloane, Jack Thompson, Jazzy Cuff, Summer Thompson, Kamala Deva, Charlotte Batty, Josh Greer, Mitchell Andrews, Ben Willis, Reuben Grant and Flo Bailey.

BOBBER BIKE: Nelson’s Topper Gear spent a bit of quality time with his American Bobber as he rode in the annual Ride for Hope. The bike is the first to be built in Nelson and drew a bit of attention at the ride where over 200 riders helped raise money for the Richmond Mall foundation. More than $12,000 was raised.

Skate park Opera swings back in Trafalgar for last time? earmarked for Stoke After more than a decade of organising Opera in the Park, Pete Rainey still cannot say enough good things about it. “To get a full professional orchestra flown in with some great singers and to put on the kind of production we’ve put on, $15 a ticket is outstanding value. If we were a profit-making organisation it would probably be a $50 ticket, maybe more.” But, with Nelson City Council due to take a closer look at its summer events and without a major sponsor, this year’s Opera in the Park could be the last.

Stoke will soon have a skate park of its own, with Nelson City Council now investigating a potential site at Greenmedows. Responding to community requests, council says it is taking to the streets later this month, to gauge the community views on the proposed site. Planning Adviser Britta Hietz says the project is just starting and council has two major stages to work through with the community, starting with an agreed site selection and then on to designing the park. She says after looking for a suitable location in Stoke, the lawn area on Greenmeadow Reserve, in between the tennis court and Main Rd Stoke ended up heading the options. “It’s considered the most suitable site because of its high visibility, distance from residential neighbours and accessibility.” Council staff will be on hand at Strawbridge Square in Stoke between noon and 1.30pm Saturday 26 February and at McCashins Market between 3 and 4.30pm that afternoon. Council hope to build the park by 2012.

Port chief selected for shipping board Port Nelson Limited Chief Executive Martin Byrne has been appointed as the New Zealand director on the board of the International Association of Port and Harbours (IAPH). This appointment was made following the recent IAPH Asia Oceania Regional Forum and meeting in Auckland. Martin succeeds former Ports of Auckland CEO Jens Madsen in the position. The IAPH is a global alliance representing around 230 ports in 90 countries. Its membership collectively handles around 60 percent of the worlds sea-borne traffic and almost 80 percent of global container traffic. It is a non-profit-making and non-governmental organisation with headquarters in Tokyo. Martin says he looked forward to fulfilling the role, as the IAPH members worked together on a number of issues facing the maritime industry. “Initiatives IAPH is working on, such as the World Climate Initiative, are around encouraging ports to promote environmentally sensitive behaviour,” says Martin. “Any part that we can play in that process will be a positive one.” The board of directors’ responsibilities include consideration of policy matters for the association, the general supervision of the executive committee and the exchange and sharing of the latest information and trends of the world port and maritime industries. The appointment will be for two years through until mid 2013.

Hira school unveils new entrance Hira School officially opened its brand new mural – a project two years in the making. The mural covers 40 metres, the length of the front fence and provides an eye-catching entrance to the school. The mural was opened last Friday evening amongst parents, teachers, students and other guests and mixes themes that are important to the school, says its principal Tonnie Uiterwijk. “We wanted it to have something to do with nature and sustainability and the mural fits that.” The mural was designed and painted by a parent of the school, Hillary Johnstone, with ideas coming from staff and students. It features native plants, families, birds and,
of course, happy children. Hira School, north of Nelson, has 75 pupils on its roll. Tonnie says the final touches to the mural were finished off at the end of last year but the styled gate was the last project and that was finished this term. The official opening on Friday gave the school a chance to host a barbeque and pizza evening, with pizza’s made in its very own cob pizza oven, where new parents could get to know the other families and staff. Tonnie says he is thrilled with the mural. “The detail has blown me away, we wanted something that would blend in with the beautiful scenery we have here and this does it.”

Worldwide praise for Hyundai i45
It’s not just the motoring media lauding Hyundai’s i45 sedan – consumer groups praise the car too. “Right through 2010, the i45 received numerous awards and accolades from the international motoring media, leading online industry directories, design institutes, safety associations,” commented the Chief Operating Officer of Hyundai New Zealand, Tom Ruddenklau. “But of course the toughest of all critics are consumers, and they have repeatedly indicated high interest in the i45. For example, the car is placed in the top five most researched new models in the United States’ largest automotive vehicle valuation company, the respected Kelley Blue Book – and the list goes on with the i45 repeatedly recognised as class-leading,” says Mr Ruddenklau. Across numerous comparison tests the i45 delivered top results, with outright wins from Edmunds.com, Car & Driver Magazine, USA Today and Wheels Magazine, all rating the i45 as number one in its class for on-road performance and driver experience. Since a cornerstone of the Hyundai brand is ensuring industry-leading technology is affordable to everyone, it’s hardly The Hyundai i45 is getting plenty of praise. surprising that recognition has been received for affordability from leading publications; the US News, Sports Auto and TopSpeed magazines among others. Hyundai’s ‘fluidic sculpture’ design language expressed in the i45 was recognised with a prestigious Australian Design Award. Developed from the ground up and with meticulous attention to detail, the i45 has been praised by the Australian Institute of Design, which applauded the “considered approach to the professional design process”, and the “incorporation of innovation and environmentally-responsible decisions.” And the i45 has been recognised across the automotive segment, competing against all classes, to receive coveted Car of the Year titles from titles including Sports Auto, Gulf Auto and Detroit News. At this month’s Detroit International Motor Show, the i45 was recognised by Road & Travel Magazine as its 2011 International Car of the Year. With over 440,000 units sold globally in 2010, the i45 has not only been a gamechanging new model in the Hyundai line-up, but also one of the most successful new vehicles Hyundai has ever produced.

Are you fed up with blunt knives or scissors? Don’t put up with it any longer. Derek Forsyth can help. Derek has had experience sharpening tools in previous jobs (including farming and sheet metal work) and was keen to continue with it, so after seeking professional training from US master sharpener Jason Pintel of the Sungold Group, he decided to start up his own business. Dereks expertise means he can utilise Derek Forsyth whichever technique is most appropriate for a pacticular item and its use and says it will save you money too. “It’s more cost effective to maintain a few quality knives that will last than have a drawer full of blunt knives.” After sharpening your knives Derek will demonstrate a safe and easy method of honing them using a steel, to get the best from them between sharpens. Get Sharp will visit any home in Nelson or Richmond for a minimum charge of $30 which usually covers 4-6 knives depending on size and damage, or you can drop them into him at his home for a discounted price.

NBS finds last community hero
www.nelsonweekly.co.nz
Hardcore volunteer Aimee Groome has been selected as the sixth, and final, community hero, by NBS. Over the last three months, the Nelson Building Society, has been seeking nominations for its Community Hero Awards and last week found its final hero. Aimee works very closely with Refugee Services and is currently working with three different families from Nepal. In addition, Aimee volunteers three mornings a week at the Victory Community Centre plus mentors a Little Sister as part of the Big Brother/Big Sister programme. Aimee’s involvement with the refugee families has brought her into
contact with Child Youth and Family services, where she is now an approved caregiver. All of the winners and others nominated have made huge personal and financial sacrifices to better their community says NBS Nelson branch manager Peter Havill. “The concept behind the Community Hero Award is to recognise and reward volunteers who really make a difference in their community. We aim to put a large percentage of our profits back into the communities where we do business, so this promotion was an excellent fit for that goal.” Aimee won $1000 from NBS and some flowers.

• A successful Port Open Day last weekend was a highlight for Port Nelson. Many thanks to those who took the time to come and visit and donate to the Nelson Hospice. • The Navy ship HMNZS Taupo had a successful visit to the Port. Four container ships arrived to discharge and load, two car carriers, a tanker and a cement ship plus several large fishing vessels moving into or around the port created an active week. • Speed was the main issue again this week some boaties being spoken to. The behaviour of most people in boats was excellent for which we congratulate you. • It has also been great this week to be seen out and about on the water and get a friendly wave from others out there. It is great to see the number of people wearing their lifejackets and having appropriate safety equipment on board. • Safety: I recommend you place your cell phone in a sealable plastic bag if it’s to be your only form of communication they don’t work well when wet. • Don’t forget to replace your flares if they have expired. Long expired flares can be a greater danger than a device for assistance- They are also much less likely to work.

Thirty six SPCA centres across New Zealand threw open their doors on 12 and 13 February, a weekend filled with love, community spirit and hundreds of happy endings when the SPCA and Hill’s Pet Nutrition celebrated their annual Second Chance for Love adopt-a-thon nationwide. Hill’s Pet Nutrition is the exclusive feeding sponsor to the SPCA, providing premium nutrition for every animal in every SPCA centre as they await their special someone. This year’s adopt-a-thon was also the most successful to date, with more SPCA centres participating and more animals adopted than in previous years. “The Hill’s Second Chance for Love adopt-a-thon was a great success, with hundreds and hundreds of happy animals now in their ‘forever homes’ thanks to the event,” says Royal New Zealand SPCA National Fundraising and Sponsorship Manager, Cressida Evans. “We saw lost animals reunited with their owners, animals who had been with the SPCA for months finding their forever families, people falling in love with animals and animals falling in love with people everywhere. We had families adopt goats, guinea pigs, rabbits, sheep, chickens and even a budgie.”

People were still dancing away at 8pm in the evening and Victory community associate representative Andrea Barker says there was plenty of positive feedback regarding great crowd participation, superb music lineup and the toddler area was a hit for parents who could still watch the stage and well and truly feel a part of the day.

Local partnership brings teenagers to lawn bowls Twenty students with special needs will have the opportunity to get on the green and have a bowl next month, thanks to a local partnership. The Halberg Trust, along with supporters Westpac and Sport Tasman are hosting a have-a-go evening with the Stoke Bowling Club. It will give the 20 students, all from Nelson, a chance to learn the sport while paired up with a Westpac volunteer. Westpac Stoke manager Chris Martin says Westpac have long been a supporter of the Halberg Trust and he is excited to get involved in the evening. “A few years ago I helped out at the Special Olympics in Christchurch and it was just so humbling. I’m thrilled we could be a part of this event.” The Halberg Trust encourages people with disabilities to participate in sports, recreation and community events. Dave Tippitt, senior advisor for Sport Tasman, says the evening will be a lot of fun. “These sorts of events make a huge amount of difference to their lives, the smiles you see on their face just after and during the event is just fantastic.” Each of the volunteers, from Westpac and the Stoke Bowling Club, will undergo a training course to help them with the student they will be paired with. The have-a-go evening is being held at the Stoke Bowling Club on Tuesday 1 March.
Nelson shooter wins NZ title Bruce Harvey, of the Cable Bay Pistol Club, regained the New Zealand 3Gun open championship earlier this month. Bruce finished first in the rifle, second in the shotgun and fourth in the pistol, enough to give him the overall title in Otago. Club president Brian Bishop won the pistol section of the open class and finished fourth in that grade, but did enough to win the A-Grade. Nigel Rout, also of the Cable Bay club, finished sixth in the open section, but second to Brian in the A-Grade. Nelson’s Ross Sneddon won the D-Grade.

IN BRIEF CYCLING Nelson’s George Bennett demolished the race record at Saturday’s fourth Santa Cruz Coppermine Epic mountainbike race. George who recently turned professional, rode away from the rest of the field to win in an incredible 2hr 3min 15sec, smashing the previous course record by over six minutes. AThLETICS Alex Jordan continued his personal best breaking form running 46.87 seconds for the 400m at the Porrit Classic in Hamilton over the weekend. This impressive result came off the back of a third place at the Brisbane Track Classic, where Alex was only beaten by two Australian Commonwealth relay team-mates. Alex now holds the five fastest 400m times in New Zealand and the top seven for his age. He will be one of a number of Nelson athletes competing at the International Track Meet this weekend in Christchurch. hOCKEY The Rewa women’s masters hockey team took home the silver medal at the New Zealand Masters Games. It was a roller-coaster of emotions for the Nelson side, the only team from the South Island competing in the seven aside division, with early victories and late defeats leaving them unsure if they were still in medal contention. But the ladies pulled through with four wins out of six games. They were only one point away from taking gold but “could not believe it” when they got to bring medals back to Nelson. AThLETICS The Honest Lawyer 5km fun run, or walk, has been hitting Monaco over the past month and is proving to be a hit with locals. On Monday night over 40 runners and walkers took part. The event is around the Monaco Peninsula and return, and there is a heap of cool prizes. Entry is $5 at 5:30pm.

Touch finals something to dance about Michael Wells put in a clinical display as he steered Nelson College A to a well deserved victory over the more fancied Thompson Daly Fieldmarshalls in the final of the Nelson Bays Touch men’s open grade on Saturday. The Tasman Rugby Academy youngster, playing his last game in Nelson College colours, pulled the strings throughout the game and scored the decisive try with teams down to four players each in drop off, to clinch a 6-5 win. Joe Kirker opened the scoring for the Fieldmarshalls as the top qualifiers got off to the best possible start. But Nelson College hit back with three tries of their own, Reece Fuller picked up a double. A spirited comeback was on the cards, though, as Shaun Begg along with brothers Joe and Nathan Kirker fought back to level the scores. But Michael stole the show in the dying minutes of extra time to seal the win. Michael credited the success to the team’s fitness levels and the hard yards they put in during training. He says the victory was a fine way to end the season with the team who went through secondary school nationals and South Islands together. “We just didn’t stop working,” he says. Kens Chicks took out the women’s final and THC defeated the Licksed Lizards to win the mixed open division, as touch concluded in Tahunanui for the season all teams finished the evening with a prizegiving at the Turf Hotel.

It would be easy to judge Stoke Rugby Club’s success on back-to-back senior titles, but it goes much deeper than that. Stoke’s division 1 team won the Nelson Bays championships in 2009 and 2010 but it is this season that is shaping up to be even bigger for the Greenmedows-based club.
With more than 220 junior players and five senior teams entering this year’s competition, Stoke is one of the biggest rugby clubs in the region and that is the first big success for the club in 2011 – rugby’s biggest ever year. Now it’s up to the players to add to that success and bring back the silverware says club manager Jo MacLean.

“All our senior teams are competitive, the [senior] B’s have been amongst the best in the past few years and our women were really unlucky to lose last year’s final 3-0. So, fingers-crossed, we will win a few more trophies this season.” The division 1 team will have a few changes for the upcoming season through with a new coaching team and several new players. The core of the squad remains intact though and Jo says it will be another very competitive Stoke side ripping into the highest club competition in the region. The division 2 side, or senior Bs, has also managed to keep the majority of its young squad together and will benefit from traveling with the division 1 team for at least the first round of competition. The Stoke women’s side has been one of the best two teams in Nelson for the past five years. Each year Stoke and Waimea Old Boys battle it out and Stoke were unlucky last year to lose an agonizing final. It last held the title in 2008, beating Waimea in the final. But the most pleasing news from the senior club

Kaiteri gold for runners With Buller over and bodies well on the recovery, next goal for runners and walkers is Kaiteriteri Gold on Saturday March 20. More than 100 people have already signed up to be on the golden sands beach start line which bodes well for another record field to line up in either the half marathon or 10km options. The Half is challenging but still a quick enough course for Mike Moreu to run 1.12.09 for his course record in 2000 while Gillene Haldane posted a swift 1.25.16 eighteen years ago. Walkers have Michael Harte’s 1.57.32 and Gillian MacDougall’s 2.12.32 to chase. Entries close March 12th and are available online at www.nelsonevents.co.nz.

Greg Lautenslager has been the main man on the Nelson athletics scene for the past eight years and now his son is following closly in his footsteps. Greg’s wealth of experience, skill and character has helped train and develop some of the country’s top athletes. A big family man, Greg’s running nous is now catching on through the next generation with his son Craig, who is quickly becoming one of the rising stars on the local track scene and looks to follow the flame of his father’s running career. Craig, 17, has grown considerably over the past year both on and off the track and has used his 6ft 1 figure to power through his favoured 1500m and 3000m events. His highlight of the season came in the New Zealand M19 3000m final in Palmerston North. The former Garin College student clung to the leading pack throughout the race and a sprint finish saw him finish fourth place in 8min 49.30sec, a personal best by 15sec. The personal best and strong finish
were just rewards for an athlete who has patiently waited for his time at the top. Despite having the gene pool from both parents, Greg competed in the 5000m at the United States Olympic trials and Debbie represented New Zealand at the 1986 Commonwealth games, Craig originally was not in to running at all. “I didn’t encourage him to run as a child,” Greg says. “Everyone had their kids running around and racing. Our boys were out playing in the creek, and that was great.” Even when he decided to join Athletics Nelson, much to the delight of his father, it was still a patient process. “He used to be beat by girls his own age. He’s been very patient. Never discouraged about it. Because he knew the best times were in front of him.” But with the blood lines there, living with one of the best track and field coaches in the country, Craig’s time is now upon him. Described as a late developer, as soon as he reached puberty he has been footing it with the best in Nelson and now at a national level.
He puts a lot of his development down to his father. “He just has so much knowledge to offer. He’s quite inspiring. He’s really encouraging.” Greg will be taking athletes to California in late March, there Craig will compete against top high school opposition at the Arcadia Invitational with the end goal of being noticed by NCAA coaches. But Craig’s focus is first on the New Zealand Track and Field Championship where he will represent Tasman in the 1500m. Breaking four minutes and reaching the finals are his two goals. If he can reach the later, medals could become a reality. And there is no doubting that if Craig can medal, it will be of a more personal significance to his father’s tally of coaching athletes to 162 national medals. With younger brothers Jeff, 15, and Jared, 12, running faster times than Craig did at their age. The Lautenslager name will hold strong in Nelson for many years to come. But with 48 points in a single mini-ball game, Jeff could could be taking a different path.

His 84-run total, which included 15 boundaries, set up a strong total of 213/8 for Nayland who looked in control throughout. Bas Radclife-Holland was one of a number of players to pick up reasonable totals to help solidify a total that was easy to defend. In reply, Garin struggled to 82 runs before being all out.
