Spike in failed drug tests

Andrew Board

A glut of methamphetamine in Nelson is showing, with a huge increase in the number of failed drug tests by workers. Figures released to Nelson Weekly from The Drug Detection Agency show that more people were caught with methamphetamine – otherwise known as P – in their system over the three months from July to September than in all of 2014. That spike has impacted on the general fail rates of drug tests that TDDA give to employees of various companies throughout Nelson and Tasman. In August this year, 8.2 per cent of people who took a drug test failed, compared to last year’s rate of 4.8 per cent. The national average last year was 6.1 per cent. TDDA says drug tests are

given either as part of a preemployment check, after an on-site accident or as part of a random screening. The majority of people failing for P were during a random test. Group general manager for TDDA, Glenn Dobson, says these stats show how important drug testing is for workplace safety. “It really isn’t about trying to catch people, rather it’s about ensuring everybody gets home safely to their families at the end of

Historic artefacts found at school Andrew Board

Auckland Point School’s historic playing field is proving a treasure trove for archaeologists, but somewhat frustrating for builders. Auckland Point School sits on land that was once used as a trading area for Maori and early European settlers. As a result, the school needs

to get permission to dig from all of the stakeholders, including six iwi, Wakatu Incorporation and Heritage New Zealand. The school is currently building a special access bathroom, improving the toilets of the pool area and building a perimeter fence, all of which needed a cultural impact assessment.

Principal Sonya Hockley says the work was supposed to be finished already, but the time delays due to the reports means it may be Christmas before the work is finished. “There has been challenges, because following a cultural impact assessment there is a 15 day stand down in

Sonya says there is still more digging to do as the fence posts go into the ground and when they plant some trees as part of the project. “This site is the most historically significant in Nelson for Maori and European settlement, so we feel very special and very honoured to care for it and we enjoy learning more about it.”

Police were called to escort a man from a Tasman District Council meeting on Thursday for disorderly behaviour after he ignored repeated requests from mayor Richard Kempthorne to sit down. Golden Bay resident Reg Turner was speaking in the public forum at the start of the meeting when he exceeded the three minute time limit allocated to public speakers. The mayor informed Reg that his allocated time was up and asked him to sit down but Reg refused, saying he only needed a short time

to finish his statement. After Reg ignored repeated requests to stop, Richard informed him that police would be called and adjourned the meeting while the police were summoned. Two police officers arrived about 15 minutes later and escorted Reg out of the council chamber after he had been issued with a trespass notice by council chief executive Lindsay McKenzie. Reg, who owns the Song of the Tui Lodge in Golden Bay, was speaking to council about their decision to stop him erecting a sign directing tourists to the lodge on the Mackay Pass

Rd. He told councillors he had driven six hours to speak at the public forum and that Richard was being unreasonable adhering to the three minute limit. Golden Bay councillor Martine Bouillir supported Reg’s stance, saying he should have been allowed to finish. “Reg came a long way to speak to council and enforcing the three minute time limit was being excessively bureaucratic” – she also says she asked the mayor before the meeting to give Reg a little longer to speak.

House deposit goes with job: Nelson law firm C & F Legal Limited are advertising two positions in their firm, they’re even throwing a house into the mix. The job offer includes a base salary of $90,000, bonuses, a phone, gym membership and carpark, but more notably, a $25,000 house deposit. The positions advertised on Seek are for a senior litigation lawyer and a senior property/commercial lawyer. Associate director Andrew Shaw says the house deposit offer is to encourage the applicants to put down roots in Nelson. “Essentially, we’re trying to find a candidate who is willing to commit to Nelson and the firm. “The response has been fantastic. We’ve had over 1000 views on the site since it launched on Monday,” says Andrew. There is no closing date for applications, but C & F Legal Ltd are expecting the successful candidate to start work in early January 2016.

Pat says it took her three days to create the letters but making them was not as hard as trying to attach them to the fence in the gale force winds. “We just enjoy a laugh and hopefully others will too. Some people might think it is silly, but beauty is in the eye of the beholder.” As to whether the yarn bombing is a once off, Pat says they’ll put something up this weekend in french knitting to mark the french conquest and they’ll definitely add more if the All Blacks get another win. “We might even do a Webb Ellis Cup if they win the Rugby World Cup.”

Businesses behind children’s hospital Body of fisherman found Andrew Board

Nurse Sue Smart had a long list of toys that needed to be bought for children at Nelson Hospital, and thanks to a donation from two local businesses she’s been able to throw the list away. Sue, the charge nurse manager of the paediatric ward at Nelson Hospital, says it’s important to have toys for the children to play with while in the hospital. It helps takes their mind off things, gives siblings something to do and can lift the spirits of those there for treatment. But the current toys were getting “tatty” and Sue says they could only buy new toys when they had raised enough money, as toys aren’t covered in the Nelson Marlborough District Health Board funding. One of the ways the nurses would raise money is by selling raffle tickets at the hospital. The money would be saved up and used to buy whatever needed replacing. It was while two nurses were doing this in their lunch break last month that Nelson Weekly publisher Steve Page came across them. He was there for a knee replacement and says he wanted to help. “I asked what they were raising

Nelson Weekly and Richmond Mall have donated $2000 for new toys in the children’s ward of Nelson Hospital. With the new toys are from left, Nelson Weekly publisher Steve Page, service manager for women, children and youth Jane Kinsey, charge nurse manager of paediatrics Sue Smart and Richmond Mall manager Belinda de Clercq. Photo: Andrew Board. money for and thought that’s pretty neat, because I wouldn’t give up my lunch hour. I thought if that’s what they’re doing then maybe we should do something too.” So Steve’s two newspapers – Nelson Weekly and Waimea Weekly – donated a $1000 Toyzone voucher to the children’s ward of the hospital and he then called his “partner in crime” Belinda de Clercq from Richmond Mall to jump on board as well.

Belinda agreed to add another $1000 of Richmond Mall vouchers “in a heartbeat”, giving Sue enough to make a serious dent in her wish list of toys. “I had a list and I’ve ticked off most of it. I was very happy, I was overwhelmed,” she says. Jane Kinsey is the service manager for women, children and youth at the hospital and says toys are often at the bottom of the pile when it comes to funding, but they’re an important part of the children’s

ward. “It’s essential to have these toys. If you liken it to an adult, could you cope without your phone, a book or a newspaper? You’d be bored within minutes.” Sue says the ward does get toys donated by members of the public but they are often of poor quality, not suitable for the ward [like soft toys] or not complete. “That’s why this donation is great because they’re vouchers, so I can go and buy what we need. We’ve been able to replenish our stocks, it’s been great.”

The body of a missing fisherman has been found inside the wreckage of FV Jubilee on the seabed. Police deployed a team of divers and a remote-operated vehicle to scour the “item of interest” found off the Canterbury coast. FV Jubilee has been missing since its crew sent out a distress signal after they were caught in a brutal storm more than a week ago, on October 18. Fishermen Jared Reese Husband, 47, of Timaru, Paul Russell Bennett, 35, of Motueka, and 55-year-old Terry Donald Booth, Nelson region, are presumed dead. Sergeant Phil Simmonds said the recovery team saw what is believed to be one deceased person inside the FV Jubilee during the ROV survey, but they would not speculate on which of the three crew it may be. He said police were in “close contact” with all three fishermen’s families. The death has been referred to the coroner. - NZME.

Doctors support warmer homes Warmer Healthier Homes scheme has already insulated 145 Nelson homes

Stoke GP Sally Harris wants to increase awareness of the Warmer Healthier Homes programme among doctors in Nelson and Tasman after seeing its benefits firsthand last winter. The programme started last year and aims to insulate the homes of low income families for free to help improve their health. It insulated 145 homes in the region last year with the majority of these being referred to the scheme by doctors and health professionals, and Sally says she is “a big fan of the project”. “I referred one of my patients to it before the start of last winter,” Sally, who works at Stoke Medical Centre, says. “She is a young mum with four young children and they were always coming to see me with recurring coughs and chest infections and asthma. “They are a motivated but low income couple and there’s no way they could afford to insulate their home so we referred her to Warmer Healthier Homes and now I never see them. I was amazed at the difference a warm, insulated home made to their health - it was quite dramatic.”

Simon Bloomberg Reporter

simon@waimeaweekly.co.nz

Now, Sally wants to promote the scheme among GPS, saying it is a great way for doctors to be proactive about improving their patients’ health. “The Warmer Healthier Homes people are doing a good job of promoting the scheme to home owners, but I think the message needs to get through to doctors as well,” she says. And Bill Dahlberg, who is a trustee of the Rata Foundation which initiated and helps fund the programme, agrees, saying health professionals “played a big part” in the success of first year of the scheme. He says 84 per cent of referrals came from GPs and clinicians and they need their support to target the right families for the second stage of the project. Bill says Rata is providing $150,000 for “stage two” of the scheme, with its partners Nelson City Council, providing $100,000 over three years, and the Nelson Marlborough District Health Board, providing $50,000.

Last year was the busiest year on record for the pools with warm weather seeing people flock to the pools. Dave says, with the summer forecast expected to be even warmer, they’re bracing for an even bigger season. “The pools just get more popular, it’s safe, clean and after a swim you can grab an ice cream or have a shower. It’s a great facility.” After opening this weekend the pools will stay open until midMarch next year.

Kate Russell North Nelson residents got to opportunity to have their voice heard at a council meeting in their neck of the woods last week. Nelson City Council’s works and infrastructure committee held their meeting at the Wakapuaka Hall on Thursday, with the public forum being open to all Nelsonians. Committee chairman Eric Davey, says that it’s good to bring meetings to different parts of Nelson once in a while, and it’s the first time he’s attended a meeting in Wakapuaka in 12 years. “It’s the ideal time for ratepayers to talk face to face with Councillors about the infrastructure issues that concern them,” he says. “By taking meetings out of Civic House we hope to encourage people who would not normally attend a Council meeting to take part in local government decision making.” The meeting was attended by local adults and children, with one resident expressing her concerns about the Lud Valley Rd in Hira becoming “too dangerous” for its users. She said she would like to see speed restrictions in place and improvements taken, including sealing a section of the road. She said there are around 150 houses on the road and, with big trucks using it too, children can find the road “intimidating.” Nearby neighbours also share her concerns. Councillor Matt Lawrey suggested that more signage on the road would be beneficial and Councillor Davey said they will look at ways they can make the road safer.

Founders brewery gets behind Movember Kate Russell The hairiest month of the year is almost upon us, and Nelsonians can expect to see some fine moustaches about town for this year’s Movember. Nelson businesses Founders Brewery and Stormy’s Man Cave Barber Shop are teaming up for the global campaign that raises funds and awareness for men’s health, and are holding a Magnum P.I-themed ‘mo party’ at the end of the month. Shawn Stormann from Stormy’s says this is the fourth year he’s been involved in the campaign and thought he’d approach Founders this year, who have also been involved in Movember in the past, to see if they wanted to run a joint event.

Caravan fire, Tuesday, October 20: An electrical issue is being investigated as the cause of the fatal caravan fire at Club Waimea caravan park on the night of Saturday, October 17. Brian Lewis Halvorsen, aged 64, died in the fire that ripped through his caravan. Munchkin, Tuesday, September 29: “Munchkin the cat, who was abandoned at Victory Square Vets, was recognised by a member of the public who rang to advise that he had been living under her house for around three months, so they assumed that the owner had moved away, abandoned Munchkin or not read the Nelson Weekly and assumed Munchkin had disappeared. For the past month, he has been enjoying life in the clinic and loves cruising around during closing hours. He is extremely affectionate and loves being pampered by the nurses. Unfortunately he is losing weight and we now think his time is coming sooner rather than later. As such, the best place for his ‘hospice’ type care is here, we’re going to look after him as his quality of life deteriorates,” said practice manager, Brendan Hickman. Munchkin has since been put to sleep, “It was very peaceful. He had a happy last month with us.” Rabbit Island calendar, Tuesday, October 13: Ali Slotemaker says the response after their article in Nelson Weekly on the Rabbit Island calendar has been “amazing.” The project has attracted over 120 photos, ranging from scenic images to casual shots of kids building sandcastles. “Our goal has always been to show the diversity of the island, and I think we are well on the way to achieving this. I have loved hearing the little stories that have been submitted with some of the entries. Rabbit Island is certainly a special place to many people and that is what we want to put in print. We have had some great winter photos submitted and are still taking entries for all seasons, up to the 30 October, 2015.

Opinion

Your Voice

Not junk art at all: I read with some disappointment the comments made by Morag (20 October 2015) describing the Anchor Stone outside TA445 as "junk art". In 2005, after much discussion, permission was given by Nelson City Council to the Iwi Komiti of Tasman Bays Heritage Trust to relocate the Anchor Stone which was under the Songer tree on Britannia Heights to outside the front door of the new museum. The story relayed at the time was that several NCC councillors from the 1970s, and Cr Keith Walker was one of the names mentioned, had the foresight to rescue the Anchor Stone from the area the proposed Maitai Dam would cover. I understood that it was a council engineer who assisted Cr Walker to have the rock relocated. The installation of the Anchor Stone was carried out with due ceremony in the weeks leading up to the opening. It received significant media attention at the time. It has served the building well in the past ten years, since it opened on Trafalgar Day 2005. While Morag may describe the cultural heritage of the tangata whenua of Te Tau Ihu as "junk art"; it is important that the cultural heritage, such as the Christopher Vine's Installation of Heritage Buildings; Jo Ogier and Robyn Hall's magnificent stained glass window; Sally Burton's pou; Jim Mackay's glass pou; Clem Mellish and Brian Flintoff 's Taonga puoro and the Anchor Stone, to name but a few, are all allowed to shine

in and around the Museum. Wayne P Marriott, CEO, Tasman Bays Heritage Trust 2001 - 2007

Three local swimming spots in country's top ten: Maitai is pretty good! Elizabeth Mead. You'd have to pay me to swim at Lake Rotoiti with all those eels! Christine Roberts. Looks like Lake Rotoroa jetty. They're very similar...Guess the best swimming holes would be Lee Valley and surrounds. Reenie McManus. Lights for Fiddle Lane: Could be made to look lovely. Joy Harris. Yes, much needed and will look lovely. Phillipa Charlton. If it will help keep the area safe, yes, lights would be great. Paulette Potter. Man kicked out of TDC meeting: The council need to pull their head in. That man travelled all that way to only be allowed to speak for three minutes, remember, us ratepayers are paying your wages so why could you not let that man have 10 minutes to speak. Av Nettleton.

Their actions defeat the purpose of their positions, to serve the public is why they're there. How utterly disrespectful, not just towards Mr Turner but every single one of us they represent (which they get paid to do). Maybe being on time for smoko is the new priority. Daniel Murphy. Over reaction by TDC. Should have invited him back to another meeting when they had more time. Simon Jones. This has been an ongoing "thing" for ages, let the man have his sign, or else take all the other advertising signs on the corner by Whites Bridge down. Dez Tinee. I'd arrest the council for calling me out on a non-job. Ngaire Piggott. I think it's ludicrous to waste the police time to trespass someone, rather than have some respect and let him finish when they had asked for extra time at the beginning of the meeting. Jules Ferguson. Poor form TDC.. An old man trying to have his say. He had travelled from Golden Bay, maybe some lenience on the time limit could have avoided this embarrassment and a complete waste of police time when they could be investigating real crime!

New Art Expo Nelson exhibitor, Roz Speirs, with some of her glass art at Saxton Stadium on Saturday. Photo: Jessie Johnston. “I’m really pleased with the turnout of Nelsonians, because Nelsonians go away at Labour Weekend, and also I’m really pleased with the quality of art, the quality of art this year [has been] unbelievable,” says Nic. Nelson artist Roz Speirs was exhibiting for the first time over the weekend after two years of learning, experimenting with and perfecting the craft of glass

art. “I’ve attended it on all the previous years so I knew that it was a really great opportunity to get my work exposed to a really large number of people,” says Roz. “It’s also really useful for me to be face to face with people looking at the work, so I can get some feedback and find out what people like.” After working with a number of different mediums, and never being satisfied with her

results, Roz finally settled on making art with glass. “I decided to try glass instead of traditional painting because it doesn’t have to look like anything, if I’m drawing a mug it has to look like a mug, but with glass I’m working with colour and texture and light so it’s a little bit more abstract.” She says the expo is a “fantastic opportunity” to display her work.

The quality of art at this year’s Art Expo Nelson has been “unbelievable” and the public seemed to agree. “This is the biggest I’ve seen it, last year we got rain and there were huge numbers of people, but this has already surpassed that. I’m the fire warden and have to keep hold of the numbers and the numbers are extraordinary,” says project manager, Nic Foster. From sculptures to pencil sketches, paintings and glass, around 170 local and visiting artisans put on a show of colour and creative talent for the public, who flocked in their thousands to Saxton Stadium to admire and buy their pieces. Nic says he created the event for two main reasons, firstly to provide artists with another outlet to sell their work and secondly to help reenergise the Top of the South art community after the 2011 Christchurch earthquakes, which destroyed 20 galleries, at least, where many Nelson artists had their work displayed.

Hall volunteer retires after 25 years Kate Russell

One of Enner Glynn Hall's most treasured volunteers has retired after more than two decades of service – but he says he'll still call it his “home away from home.” Keith Bell has been a volunteer and committee member at the much-loved hall for 25 years, doing everything from keeping it tidy to making sure windows and doors were shut at the end of the day. The hall is the heart of the community and is used by Scouts, Girl Guides, Enner Glynn School, and for private functions. It all started when Keith, who lives right next-door to the hall, got "quite chummy" with a builder who worked there on Sundays. “I started picking up rubbish and doing gardening and other bits and pieces, and it just developed from there,” he says. "I attended the AGM but didn't get on the committee the first time - but the second time I did," he says. Keith says he and his late wife Betty were “very involved” in keeping the hall running.

“I was just there to lend a hand – I would go and potter around and make sure everything was up and running and tidy,” he says. Keith and Betty also used to help with the cleaning and maintenance including getting up a very high ladder to change the light bulbs. "The cleaner was frightened of the ladder, so I did it, even though I was shaking like a leaf," he recalls. "It's such an asset to the community and I couldn’t afford to let it down," he says. “It has been a very big part of our lives, and I've enjoyed every moment of it. We've been very, very lucky." Keith says he would often get calls from people who had forgotten their keys, so he'd go next door to the hall and let them in, or they would collect the keys from his house. “I remember having to go up there few times to tell people to keep the noise down – 21st parties and that kind of thing,” he says. “I had to go up there in my pajamas and dressing down at one o'clock in the morning to shut the

Keith will be greatly missed at the hall, and committee treasurer Kate Scarlett says he has been “the most amazing guy” and

they are very sorry to lose him. Keith says that even though he's off the committee now, he'll still wander up and poke his nose around the building. “When I handed my notice in, they all said 'we accept it - but we don't accept it',” he jokes. “They say - 'when the AGM comes around in 12 months time you can come back

Tasman district mayor Richard Kempthorne and Gardens of the World owner Francis Day plant a rare Wollemi pine in the gardens last Friday. Photo: Simon Bloomberg.

Jurassic-era tree planted in Hope Simon Bloomberg One of the world’s oldest and rarest trees, which was planted in the Gardens of the World in Hope last week, is so valuable it was planted inside a speciallymade cage. The Wollemi Pine was thought to be extinct for two million years until it was discovered by David Noble in the Blue Mountains in Australia in 1994. It had only been found in fossils until David found a cluster of the unusual conifers in a rainforest gorge in the Wollemi National Park in Australia. Last Friday, Gardens of the World owner Francis Day and

Tasman district mayor Richard Kempthorne planted a Wollemi Pine sapling in the garden. The tree is so rare and valuable that nothing was left to chance, with Richard and Francis planting it inside a metal cage designed to protect the tree until it reaches about 2m in height. Francis says their gardener Jason Beattie suggested they should plant a Wollemi Pine to enhance the gardens’ already diverse range of trees. They had to wait for two years to get the tree which was propagated by Ambrosia Nursery in Christchurch - it is classified as endangered with less than 100 mature trees growing in the wild.

Francis says the discovery of the Wollemi Pine was the botanical equivalent of finding a small dinosaur surviving today. “It survived seven ice ages and was around in the age of the dinosaurs,” he says. “It’s a very, very old and rare species and cost a lot of money.” The first Wollemi Pine planted in New Zealand was planted in the Christchurch Botanic Gardens to celebrate the gardens’ 150th anniversary. The kauri is its closest living relative and it belongs to the ancient Araucariaceae family of coniferous trees that flourished in the Jurassic and Cretaceous eras.

X-it Ant - for exterior ant control

X-it Ant

™

Benefits of using X-It Ant:  Efficacy against all ant species in New Zealand including Argentine and Darwin Ants.  Can be used on all exterior surfaces including trees, lawns, concrete paths and the exterior of buildings.  Rainfast after 1 hour of sunlight.  Control of ants for months, depending on the surface treated.  Forms a non-repellent barrier that ensures uptake of chemical when walked on by ants.

www.keyindustries.co.nz

Recent ant observations in Nelson have revealed the presence of Argentine ants in large numbers in certain areas. With summer now past, it is time to start planning what methods to use to control argentine ants. In past years there was really only one option and that was to use bait. If not applied correctly, and if neighbours did not treat at the same time, then control was not of the expected levels for the price paid for the product. The last two seasons have seen the use of a now tried-and-proven method of getting long-term control of argentine ants for a reasonable outlay by the householder. The X-IT Ant™ programme relies on the use of at least two, possibly three, different products to achieve ant control. To get the best result from your X-It Ant application your sprayer must have no spray residue from the previous use of insecticides (e.g. Ripcord®Plus) Best results are achieved when a new sprayer is used and only X-IT Ant is used in it. X-It Ant works by being non-repellent to ants so that when they walk over the dried spray residue they pick up the insecticide on their feet and take it back to the nest where the ants preen each other, and thereby pass the insecticide onto other ants, including the queen. Ant colony control is achieved once the queens are dead. You must know where the ants are for successful treatment, so a full inspection of the

property is required, so check all these places: Sleepers, trees, curb and channelling, driveways, paths, gardens, compost heaps, all fences including the wire or boards, rails and posts, pergolas and plants growing on them.

Nayland College Theatre Sports team members, from left, Dustin Blazek, Stuart Lowe and Nico Hindmarsh, rehearse for the Guy Williams Homecoming Tour. Photo: Simon Bloomberg.

Students to open comedy show Theatre sports teams from Nayland College and Nelson College will get their big break when they take the stage as supporting comedy improv acts for the Guy Williams Homecoming Tour in Nelson this Friday. Guy, a former Nelson College student who stars on the Jono and Ben Show on TV3, is performing two shows, and Nayland College Theatre Sports team members Stuart Lowe, Dustin Blazek and Nico Hindmarsh say they can wait to be his supporting acts. "I watch him on Jono and Ben and he's really funny," Stuart says. "He's what I want to work towards - it would be amazing to be that funny." Nico says they are all a little nervous about the prospect of performing in the same show as Guy, in front of what is expected to be a big audience.

"We've done the theatre sports competition at the Theatre Royal and school plays, but this will be a lot bigger - we'll just have to focus on our performances and not the crowd." The two college theatre sports teams will perform at the All Ages Youth Show in the Johnny Cash Room at the Nelson Marlborough Institute of Technology starting at 7pm - the event is alcohol and drug-free. Guy's second performance will be an R18 show, hosted by the Free House in the Yurt. Tickets for both shows are available from Ticket Direct online or at the Theatre Royal Box Office. Tickets cost $10 plus booking fee for the Youth Show and $20 plus booking fee for the R18 Adults Only Show. Door sales may be available on the night.

Fiddle Lane should get lights by Christmas Kate Russell

Part of a proposed scheme to “light up” Bridge St has stalled, but councillors say the work should still be completed in time for Christmas. Nelson City Council has proposed to string up fairy lights over Fiddle Lane as part of the Bridge St improvement programme, which also includes under veranda lighting, planting, and enhancing street frontages. Design work for the cable-secured awnings and fairy lights is nearing completion, but the project still requires agreement from

the adjoining land owner to which the fittings will attach, which has delayed the project. The lights will be strung between two buildings, but one of the private property owners wants to discuss ‘air space rental.’ The Council has been working with Ron Taylor, Nelson branch president of the Hospitality Association, to liaise with the owner. Matt Lawrey, at last week’s Works and Infrastructure Committee meeting, said the delay is “disappointing” as the lights will really benefit the area. Alec Louverdis, group manager infrastructure at the council, then stated

Business group raises cash for hospice A local business networking group has raised $7000 for charity in one evening. BNI “Network @ 9” is made up of around two dozen businesspeople from around the district. They meet once a week at the Speight’s Ale House and decided to try and raise some money for the Nelson Tasman Hospice Trust by hosting a fundraising evening. The fundraiser “A Night at the Races” was held earlier this month and saw around 160 people raise a little over $7000 for the cause. One of the organisers, Mariana Phillips, says it was a huge night. “We raised money via a variety of things, ticket sales, sponsored tables and an auction, but the main thing was the horse racing.” For the races, organisers played DVDs of old races with punters able to make “bets” with donated prizes given to the winners. Mariana says a cheque will be donated to the hospice sometime this week.

Fiddle Lane, between Buxton car park and Bridge St. that he is “very hopeful” they will still have the lights up before Christmas, and is expecting approval within the next two

weeks. There are also plans to enhance the facades of upper Bridge St buildings, but owners of two of the buildings have stated they are not prepared to spend the money as they are unsure of the futures of the buildings. The council has approached both owners through Ron with the offer of the council undertaking some painting to their facades, and say that “early indications are positive.” There are also plans to revamp the planters on Bridge St, and, back in June, under veranda lighting was installed in the hospitality precinct with five extra LED lamps.

New machines for strongman comp As if lifting logs, pulling trucks and tossing tyres wasn't enough, this year's Vortex Spas Strongman Challenge looks set to be even tougher. Organiser Luke Slotemaker has brought in a few new additions to last year's successful event at the Nelson A&P Show, including a quad bike press, wheel deadlift and a crucifix hold. The crucifix hold is an endurance event where competitors have to hold out an axe in each hand. Whoever holds it up with straight arms the longest, wins. Luke says last year's event attracted a lot of interest from the public, so he wanted to up the ante this year. "I thought I'd like to do it again but step it up a notch. My focus is to get events that are spectacles, that are impressive, so I've done that." So far eight competitors from around the South Island have entered the strongman challenge, but Luke says entries are still Vortex Spas Strongman Challenge organiser Luke Slotemaker with open for the event on NoLaura Berger and Sarah Daly of C & F Legal, who are trying out the vember 21 and 22 at RichCrucifix Hold, which C & F Legal sponsors.

Rob Thompson was first introduced to volleyball when some fellow teachers at Nelson Intermediate School put together a social team – he spent the next 33 years introducing the sport to others. Rob has taught the game to thousands of kids over three decades and on Friday was presented with a distinguished service award from the Tasman Volleyball Association. He says receiving the award was a bit like listening to an episode of his own “This is Your Life” show. “It is a nice feeling to have introduced so many people to the sport. Currently we have about 80 kids playing, but over the years it would add up to be a lot, I suppose.” Waimea Intermediate’s Helen Weir was also presented with a distinguished service award last week, making around six recipients in Tasman – which includes Nelson, West Coast, Tasman and Marlborough – along with five life members. Tasman Volleyball’s Allan Brodie says Rob has put in a huge amount of effort for the sport. “Work like Rob’s is invaluable. Nelson Intermediate right now has seven teams playing on a Wednesday night at Saxton Stadium and that competition is why 10 to 15 years later Pat Shone, Jack Redpath and those boys are in the top team in the country and teams like Waimea College are national champions, because they started young and got some quality volleyball.” Rob says he’s seen some top players

Rob organises the volleyball part of the tournament each year and says it’s a mammoth task. “We often use as many as 20 courts and 50 teams take part in that. That’s 300 kids playing all at once.” Allan says Rob’s got the competition down to a fine art. “In his retirement, he’ll still have to come down and run that day because

no one else will know how to do it.” For the sport has also run in his family with his son Josh coaching the Nelson College for Girls A team, but Rob says his coaching career is coming to an end. “My days are probably numbered,” he says. “But there’s a good atmosphere here with the teams, there’s some really neat kids playing and their attitude is fantastic. They want to be there.” Allan hailed Rob’s efforts over the years and says the sport is in good health because of volunteers like Rob.

Saxton ballpark hosts softball tournament Nelson's Saxton ballpark played host to the annual Labour Weekend softball tournament, but once again the local teams found it tough going. Organiser Derryn French says eight teams took part in the tournament which wrapped up yesterday afternoon. Of those, two were from Nelson, the Stoke Eagles and United Titans. Derryn, who also plays for the Eagles, says it was a fun tournament. "It's always tough competition and we're struggling to get across the line against the tougher teams, but we're winning the games we should be. "Teams like to come here because of the great atmosphere and it's a good ballpark." Every team plays each other in a round robin competition before the top two teams meet in the final.

Pro cyclist ready for break at home

Nelson cyclist George Bennett is enjoying "relaxing and drinking beer and catching up with his family and mates", after another tough season on the pro tour that started and ended well but turned ugly in between. The 25-year-old Lotto NL Jumbo rider recorded his best results as a pro cyclist this season with a fourth placing on a stage in the Vuelta Espana and a top 10 finish in the Tour Down Under. But George also had to endure illness and injury and "the toughest two weeks of my career", after missing a start in the Giro Italia when drug tests showed he had low cortisol levels. "It started pretty good in January in the Tour Down Under when I got my first Pro Tour

points, but then I was sick for the first race in Europe and had the knee injury the next week," George says. "I got back on track before the Giro but had all the drama there with tests showing I had low cortisol levels. Then I had a few altitude camps and came away with a fourth and couple of top 15 places in the Vuelta (Espana). I also raced well in the Lombardi, so overall I feel I made a big step up this year." George attributes his improvement to the coaching staff on his new team, saying a change in diet and training has worked wonders. "They were very scientific in their approach and made some big changes to my nutrition and training. My role in the team also changed and I got a few chances myself - I was also

being used later in the races and not just getting bottled early. "I had a lot more responsibility but that made me press harder. I really enjoyed it." George is optimistic that he will continue to improve next season, especially if he can "figure out" what's causing a painful, reoccurring stitch that is making his life hell. "I had explorative surgery at the end of the season but they still don't know why it's happening. It comes on during high intensity riding and it can be so bad I get light-headed from the pain - it's frustrating, but when I figure it out I'll be a new rider." George will be in Nelson until January when he heads across the Tasman for the Tour Down Under.

When we were lucky enough lately to have some windless days, Nelson Dawnbreakers club members the McPherson family got out for their first fishing trip to break in the new boat. The McPherson's are an avid fishing family who have a lot of very successful results with their time on the water. This trip saw them head out west to Separation Point, at around 30 metres deep they set their drift back towards the main point. They were using small Red size 5 flasher rigs with a little squid and pilchard bait mix on some nice light gear. These rigs were very successful in targeting a nice mixed bag of blue cod, perch and some very nice size gurnard, which put up a great fight McPherson when using the light- cently. er gear. The young McPherson boys had a great time on this fishing trip with their mum and dad, and to top the trip off they got to see some seals

and a thresher shark as well. That's what it's all about in the Dawnbreakers club! Great fishing and Great family times. Can't wait to see the reports from the long weekend coming in, and hopefully the weather has settled. We will starting seeing some nice

family's day out on a new boat resized snapper pics coming in very soon, and as the water warms the kingfish will start moving back up the bay, as there are signs of a lot of bait fish already out there.
