Roadside rubbish dump disgusts The cost of disposing household waste in Nelson could be behind a mounting “fly-tip” at the top of the Whangamoas, says one resident who is dismayed at the amount of rubbish being dumped there. Nelson man James McKeown spotted the dumping ground on the crest of the Whangamoas by

State Highway 6 two months ago, after stopping for a breather on his motorbike. He says he wouldn’t have come across it if he hadn’t helped a fellow motorcyclist who had hit a crash barrier and landed in a “whole lot of rubbish”. James says he was “shocked” to see gutted pigs and skins, old

“The smell was so bad, and there were Weka foraging around in the rubbish,” he says. “It just seems to be an ongoing thing.” The area with rubbish stretches around 30 metres along the cliff edge and can be seen at least 20 metres down the cliff. Trees and scrubs block the view

fridges, car parts, tyres and old carpet, as well as house-hold rubbish bags and green waste by the state highway, which is the responsibility of the NZ Transport Agency to keep free of rubbish.

past that. James believes the fly-tip has been spurred by expensive dump fees and that, while most people dispose of their rubbish lawfully, refuse station fees can be a financial disincentive for some Nelson residents.

“I don’t mind getting hit in the face, but I don’t want to lose, that’s what makes me most nervous.” An honest assessment from restaurant owner Harry Morris as he was one of 20 people announced to compete in the Fight 4 Victory III.

Most of the 20 still looked more like lovers than fighters, but come November 5 they will fight for their own motivation and a good cause. The third edition of the Fight 4 Victory was launched on Friday night with fighters introduced at a gala night at Bowater Hyundai in front of Victory Boxing ambassadors Monty Betham and Nathan

Fa’avae. Some couldn’t help but smile when asked to square up for the promotional photos, others hugged each other and a rare few even tried to talk a little trash. For Harry, it was more about making the most of the present and his overall fitness journey. He says, at 51, he’s in the best shape of his

life and he’d pondered getting involved in the event while beginning his fitness journey during Fight 4 Victory 2. “I joined the gym 18 months ago and they were taking names for the event and I thought it would be something worth getting into.

“I have used it and personally found it too expensive. It would be good if they lowered the price for lowincome families.”

“My husband has used it and he was shocked at the cost. It doesn’t encourage people to dump their rubbish wisely.”

“I’m originally from Switzerland and it is much more expensive over there, so I find the cost reasonable here.”

“I haven’t used it but my husband has. I think the cost just goes up like everything else does.”

Costs range from $20 to take a car boot-sized load of general refuse to Nelson City Council’s transfer station on Vivian Place in Tahunanui, to $80 for 1.5 – 2.0m3 of waste and $40.00 per m3 thereafter. You’ll pay half the cost for green waste, and if you want to get rid of a car tyre, it’ll cost you $7.00. The transfer station charges, which are reviewed annually, have risen between $5.00 and $15.00 since 2010, depending on how much waste you have, but green waste charges remain the same. James believes that fly-tipping becomes a “habit” for those who can’t afford the growing dump fees, and asks why Nelson City Council haven’t put more money into this area so that people don’t have to dump elsewhere.

son Weekly that they have crews regularly clearing rubbish on the Whangamoas on State Highway 6 and respond quickly if they are informed of rubbish being dumped. However, he says priority is given to the rubbish visible from the road. “Given the length of the state highways and the remoteness of some areas, it is difficult to put in place measures to prevent people dumping rubbish at the side of the road,” he says. “Anyone who is aware of people dumping rubbish on or near state highways can report it to the NZ Transport Agency on 0800 44 44 49 or their local council. Where there are particular problem areas for rubbish dumping, the Transport Agency can work with the other agencies and local councils to trace people responsible.”

Nelson news website passes million hits A website dedicated to Nelson news passed its millionth milestone last week. nelsonlive.co.nz – owned by the same locally-owned media company as Nelson Weekly and Waimea Weekly – was launched 15 months ago to give Nelsonians up-to-date news and information throughout the week. Since its launch, nelsonlive.co.nz has continued to build momentum and last Friday passed one million hits. The website now attracts an average of 5500 hits a day. nelsonlive.co.nz has a team of six journalists writing news, taking

photos and filming video for the site, but also encourages members of the public to phone in with news tips, photos and information. The driving force behind the site, reporter Brittany Spencer, says passing a million hits was a big buzz for her. “It was really exciting. We get a lot of hits now and I’ve certainly noticed an increase in traffic a lot over the past six months.” Editor Andrew Board says the site is evolving all the time. “It was interesting for us as newspaper publishers to fully embrace this style of story-telling and we’re al-

If you have been thinking of giving that city parking warden a piece of your mind, you had better smile for the camera. A body camera trial is being rolled out for Nelson parking wardens as well as animal control officers this week, following 27 incidents of “serious abuse” from members of the public in the last year. As well as staff being subjected to threats and verbal abuse, there have been nine cases where officers have been physically assaulted. The one-month trial started yesterday and Nelson City Council, in partnership with its regulatory contractor Environmental Inspections Ltd, is hopeful the body cameras will defuse aggressive situations and provide accurate information about what happened and who was involved. Nelson City Council group manager strategy and environment, Clare Barton, says that officer health and safety is “paramount”. “Council hopes that introducing body cameras will help to defuse

Social Bubs proving very social Simon Bloomberg

A new parents group, formed to help Nelson mums and dads with young children connect and create lasting relationships, has taken off after 80 mums attended the group's first outing earlier this year. Social Bubs was set up by two young mothers, Rachel Eggers and Catherine Jopson, who were finding it difficult to meet other young parents after moving to Nelson. The group held its first meeting at Founders Park on Mother's Day weekend and Rachel says they were

overwhelmed by the number of parents who attended. "I've moved back to Nelson after living in Brisbane for six years and was finding it hard to connect with other young mothers," Rachel says. "Catherine was in a similar situation, moving to Nelson with her husband who had come from here, so we decided to set up Social Bubs. "We had a Mums Meet Mums function at Founders and 80 mums turned up, so obviously there was a need. There are a lot of young mums returning to Nelson or moving here from bigger cities

and Social Bubs helps them meet other mums. "We also held a Dads Day Out at Founders Brewery on the same day and about 30 dads turned up. They were only allowed one drink though because they had to look after the babies." Rachel says Social Bubs organises an activity every fortnight and last Friday they were invited to the Richmond Aquatic Centre for a free infants swimming lesson. Young parents can find out more about Social Bubs on their Facebook page or by emailing socialbubsnz@gmail.com

son’s Katie Gilsenan, who was amongst those enjoying Light Nelson on Sunday night. “We just think it’s wonderful and to see all these people coming out. It’s just wonderful to see Nelson people come out for the arts. I don’t know where to begin and where to stop with it really, we just raved about it when we got home.” Mandy Chignell believes the show could be the next Wearable Arts. “Because it’s just so spectacular." Light Nelson will run for the final time from 5:30pm until 9:30pm tonight [Tuesday].

Southbound (heading to Richmond) traffic on Waimea Road will detour via Rutherford and Van Diemen Streets. Please take extra care. Delays are likely at peak times so please use another route if you can. Choosing to cycle or catch the NBus will help reduce congestion on the road. Access for residents and businesses on the closed section of Waimea Road will be maintained. This detour is essential to complete a crucial stormwater upgrade. Thank you for your patience and understanding while we work to complete this project safely and quickly.

Urban to open Snaparock

SNAPAROCK WINNERS: Nelson band Urban, from left; Richard Bradley, Betsy Hill, Mat Charles, David Turnhout and Nao Uda. The band received over a quarter of the total votes in an online competition to open Snaparock, which is part of September’s Snapafest festival in Nelson. The competition was run through www. nelsonlive.co.nz. Photo: Kate Russell.

Kate Russell The votes are in, and local band Urban have won a spot to play alongside an impressive line-up of Aussie rockers at Snaparock, which is coming to the Trafalgar Centre in September. Urban were just one of 12 bands that entered the competition, with the public casting over 700 votes last month. The top three acts Urban, Bryce Wastney and Cover Me - were then put to Graham “Buzz” Bidstrup, drummer from Sydney super-group The Dynosaurs, who chose the overall winner. Speaking to the Nelson Weekly, Buzz said it was a “hard choice” picking a winner. “All three acts had something special about them, but in the end I went for Urban as they would most likely bring a younger demographic to the concert and, as locals, they will have some good support from their fans,” he said. “All artists were right up there as far as talent and professional attitude are concerned, and it was great to hear the diversity in the music of each of these artists.” Urban bass guitarist Mat Charles says playing at Snaparock is a “huge opportunity” for the band. “I’m happy that the work we put in with our fan base, in terms of getting votes, translated into winning the gig,” he says. “For me, it’s another important step as we continue to grow our fan base locally and further afield.” Guitarist David Turnhout says it also means a lot that they got the tick of approval from Buzz. “We have had so much support, especially for this competition as well as our debut album, and it’s greatly appreciated.” Snaparock will take to the Trafalgar Centre stage on Friday, 16 September, in a concert which features legendary Aussie acts Mental as Anything, The Dynosaurs, Angry Anderson and The Narcs. The concert is part of the two-day Snapafest, which continues at Founders Park on Saturday, 17 September, with local seafood cuisine on offer. For tickets to Snaparock, head to www.ticketek.co.nz/snapfest. A member from the voting public is still into win a doublepass, and will be announced next week.

Is Quarantine Rd Nelson's prettiest roundabout? Roundabouts should be practical, not pretty. I am amazed that palm trees have come from Hamilton at such great expense and that art works will be installed there. Those using the roundabout want a clear view of other roundabout users and don’t want to be distracted by art or have their view blocked by trees. Rosemary Venner. It looks waaaay nicer than it did. Nita Hippolite. Pretty but..... can people use it correctly! Stay in their own lanes, enter the correct lane, stay in their lane and exit from the correct lane! I doubt it. Vicki Charles. Who cares what it looks like as long as its functional, money would be better spent else where. Christine Roberts. Once they put some arrows on the road so people in the third lane going onto the motorway don't cut into the lanes heading into town. This is definitely better than the old one, it's like they knew what they were doing at the design stage. Now fix the Pascoe St onto Quarantine Rd intersection, two lanes onto Quarantine is best, one to Nayland and the other to the Nelson/ motorway roundabout. Rayon Mackenzie.

Opinion

I hope the new roundabout at Quarantine Rd doesn't end up like the Saxton one, covered in plants so that you can't see what is coming and the edges built up just high enough so you can't see cars indicators 'til the last minute. I would settle for a safe roundabout rather than a pretty one. Graeme O'Brien. ATM pulled out of Tahuna Dr: Excellent vision from the banksters with the beach front and camping ground nearby. Another winning formula. Lance Farrell. Just another step towards cashless society. Bill Sullivan. Put a Bitcoin ATM there instead. Brad Kay. OK, so the Aussie bank is out, why not approach a NZ one? Kiwi or TSB might come to the party. Lena Harrison. Dumb. But guess they know how much it is used or not. Angela Hellewell. Tahunanui beach is by far the biggest asset Nelson has. It's the place we tell our friends about and tourists travel to Nelson just to go to the beach. I hope another bank takes up the spot and we start thinking differently about the benefit Tahunanui beach is to

times alone because that's kind of boring." Riley Kirkwood, 10, says "sometimes you have fights with your friends and you just don't want to hang out with them at that time, so you can find someone else. You could use the buddy seat to chill out and have a break from your friends." Teacher and member of the Health Promoting Schools group, Jane Tambisari, says the seats are "all about inclusion" and helping create supportive environment at the school. "We'll put one in the junior school and one in the senior school for next term. The peer mediators and other pupils will be able to help the vulnerable kids and invite them to play and make friends." Kaye says the Menzshed and Halswell Timber have also joined forces to make a Buddy Seat for Stoke School. Kaye says Stoke School had already installed a Buddy Seat last year and it had been "so successful they wanted another one". Any primary schools interested installing a Buddy Seat at their school can email Kaye at kaye.latham@ dia.govt.nz

THERE’S A NEW LEADER IN THE WIRELESS MULTI-ROOM MARKET

A new community and business initiative to help lonely and isolated pupils make new buddies is being offered to primary schools around Nelson and Tasman, after being rolled out at Tahunanui School last week. Tahunanui School received two Buddy Seats on Thursday after the school parent Joy Shackleton initiated the project at a Health Promoting Schools group meeting. A member of the group, Kaye Latham, subsequently approached the Waimea Menzshed to build the seats from materials donated by Halswell Timber, Guthrie Bowron Nelson and Dulux, and they will be installed in the playground next term. Kaye, who is a community advisor for the Department of Internal Affairs, says Buddy Seats have been used successfully in schools around the country. If a pupil feels isolated, they sit in the seat to encourage their schoolmates to invite them to join in their playtime activities, she says. Senior pupils from Tahunanui School's peer mediation group, who play-acted a typical Buddy Seat scenario at assembly on Thursday, agree it's a great concept. "I think the buddy seats are a good idea for children who are sad and don't have friends," Maddie Hay, 9, says. "You don't want to spend lunch-

Hana ready to hip hop in Vegas Simon Bloomberg

All the hard work and training has paid off for Nelson dancer Hana Morris, after she was selected to compete at the World Hip Hop championships in the US next month. Hana, who started competitive hip-hop dancing at the Mad Beat Studio in Richmond seven years ago, will travel to Las Vegas for the August 8 to 13 champs with the Wellington-based mega crew, The Capital. The 18-year-old Nelson College for Girls graduate joined the 25-dancer crew when she moved to Wellington this year to study psychology at Victoria University. It won't be the first time Hana has competed internationally after dancing in a Mad Beat crew that finished fifth at the Hip Hop Unite in Holland in 2012 and second at the World of Dance in Hawaii in 2013. That crew also reached the semi-finals of the popular television show New Zea-

land's Got Talent. However, Hana says the world champs will be a big step up, with over 3000 dancers from 50 countries entering the event. All mega crews will complete a three-and-a-half to four minute routine with the top 20 advancing to the semi-finals and then the top six progressing through to the final. "I'm really excited about it," Hana says. "I've always wanted to do this competition because it's like the Olympic Games of hip hop." Mad Beat teacher Gemma Lang says Hana's selection is well deserved and "a reflection of how hard she has worked." "I saw her dancing about seven years ago and invited her to join one of our crews. I could see that she was talented but she has also trained and worked really hard to get where she is." Although Hana is dancing in Wellington this year, she still returns to Nelson

Gemma says that's been beneficial to the studio because it exposes their dancers to new ideas and styles. "The dance company she's with is one of the oldest

hip hop companies in New Zealand, so they are very good," Gemma says. "They have a lot of choreographers and teachers and get exposed to a lot of different styles, and she brings those ideas back here which is good for our

young dancers.' As well as training every day leading up to the world champs, Hana has also been busy fund-raising to help cover the cost of her travel and accommodation. She has performed in fund-raising shows in Wel-

lington, "spent four days standing outside a supermarket in Stoke selling raffles", and has been taking dance workshops at Mad Beat - she has also set up a givealittle page at www. givealittle.co.nz/cause/help hanagettoworlds.

Ce l e b r a t ing o n e ye a r in business It’s been one very successful year in business for Prestige Euro Works thanks to owner James Martyn’s expert knowledge on European cars. James initially worked for a garage in Christchurch that specialised in repairs and maintenance on European brands and saw that a number of the cars were being sent from Nelson. After visiting the area a few times, James decided to open his own business on Gladstone Rd and provide repair and maintenance

services to local European car owners. James chose to specialise in the field of European cars because of the more complicated mechanics they incorporate. No matter how well a car is manufactured, there are always things that can break down but when repairs are required for a European car, it can sometimes be a nightmare to repair them. From day one James began building the loyal client base he enjoys today, providing an honest job and communicating

A shout-out for sewing machines from the Tahunanui Community Centre has led to a “phenomenal” response, allowing the centre to grow its sewing classes. The call out was made a few weeks after a sewing course for beginners was established by Margie Norriss-Brown and Katie Hughes at the centre. The demand for the course made the classes difficult to run on one or two machines, so Margie approached Nelson Weekly to see if it could put the word out for some unused sewing machines. The response, she says, was “incredible”. “We got so many. I couldn’t believe it and it was not just sewing machines either, we got an over locker, cotton, scissors, ironing boards and materials. We were delighted.” Jacqui Irwin, of the Tahunanui Community Centre, says some of the machines were of top quality, meaning the sewing classes will have enough machines to cope with their “steady demand”. “We had a phenomenal response, we thought if we got half a dozen it would be enough, but we got a lot more

It’s really exciting and it’s enabled us to use just the very best of those machines and allowed us to loan others out to families who don’t have a sewing machine.” She says among the people who donated were people whose eyesight or hand mobility had deteriorated. “One man, who had recently become widowed, donated his late wife’s machine and he got a real buzz out of knowing that it was something that was going to be well used.”

The sewing courses, which teach people the basics of sewing so they can repair and alter clothes, is now held twice every Tuesday and experienced sewers have come forward offering to mentor. “It’s such a heart-warming thing to be able to put the word out and have people respond,” says Jacquie. The Sew it Up classes are held twice every Tuesday. For more information, contact the Tahunanui Community Centre on 548 6036.

Students get taste of tradie life Locally Owned and Operated

Brittany Spencer

Forty students from around the region donned high visibility vests and hard hats for last Thursday’s Big Construction Tour. The annual tour is organised by the Building and Construction Industry Training Organisation (BCITO) and gets students out on construction sites to experience ‘a day in the life of a tradie’. Students from Nelson, Nayland, Garin and Waimea Colleges joined Tapawera Area School, Rai Valley and Nelson Girls in clambering on a bus and touring Viridian Glass, The Sellers Room, Carter’s Frame & Truss and Olive Estate Lifestyle Village. BCITO skills broker Amanda Williams says giving the students an insight into different trades is really great. “They’re all really engaging and some of them will walk away thinking ‘I can do that’. “They’re also understanding that there are

Nelson Girls student Madeline Brits can handle a drill and says she’s really enjoyed all the activities and getting a taste test of the different trades. “I want to be a builder so it’s been great to have the opportunity to go around a whole lot of the trades. “I’ve never done joinery or any of these things before, but it’s all really cool,” she says. The Sellers Room owner Margarette Sellers says it's really fun taking the students around the workshop and showing them what joinery is all about. “Like most trades, joinery is a bit of a dying art so it’s been awesome showing them what we do in the workshop and on our computers and seeing them get excited about it,” she says. The Big Construction Tour is a nationwide event that, this year, got 1000 handpicked secondary school students on site and experiencing 15 different trades.

Don's five decades on the bowling greens Jacob Page

Don Carter’s willingness to lend a hand with the Stoke Bowling Club greens in 1966 has led to a passion for the club’s greens that remains just as strong 50 years later. “In all those years I’ve never woken up and thought ‘I have to go sort those bloody greens down at Stoke’, I just love it and I’ll keep doing it for as long as my health allows me.” The former orchardist started playing bowls thanks to an annual fruit growers tournament at Mapua – from then on, he was hooked. Don joined the club in 1960/61 as a player and it was his former boss, who was helping with the greens, that asked him to lend a hand just five years later. “My first job was to sieve soil and the next year I started to put on fertiliser, and in those days you had to put everything on by hand rather than the machinery we have today.” Don took over the role in the late 1960's as a volunteer and started receiving payment for his work a few years later. “I used to be a fruit and berry grower even when I was doing this voluntarily, and even when I began to get paid I kept doing

Yes,

with the job,” he says. “There are no distractions first thing in the morning, no one to talk too. “What I’ve always loved about doing the greens is that you can see something for

your work. “Once the greens have been cut, you can look at them and go ‘by jeez, that was worth the effort’. “It is hard to satisfy all bowlers, some of them think the greens don’t play as well as they were expecting, but in my experience those are often the bowlers that come up on the losing end which is just human nature. Currently, Don is re-sewing the green which bares his name, in the hopes it will be ready for December. Ron stopped playing bowls a decade ago having won 16 centre titles, played at multiple national championships and even finishing fourth at the national singles one year. “I fell in love with the game and I’ve had a few people mention over the years that Don Carter prepares the greens to suit his own game,” he laughs. “If only I knew how to do that, I just try to produce a consistent green. “Looking back I think I spent too much time playing it with a young family at home, but that’s what happened.” Don says the great people at the club have ensured he still enjoys the role. “I’ve never thought about retirement. “My motto is work longer, live longer.”

Waimea College Special Education Reunion Wednesday 3 August, 10.30am - 1.00pm. Phone Sarah on 544 6099 #850 Waimea College’s Special Education Department continues to be a central part of the school, with staff having worked alongside over 700 students, their families and whanau since 1989 when the department’s doors first opened. Now, 27 years later, Waimea College’s Special Education team are keen to catch up with all ex students and their families with a special reunion morning tea. Sarah Kennedy has been working at the Special Education Department for 26 years and looks back to the beginning of its formation. In 1989 the Education Act changed al-

lowing students with special learning requirements to choose which school they studied at, rather than being allocated to attend a local special school. Waimea College started their Special Education Department in that year with nine students, one teacher and one teacher aide in the middle of C block. Our foundation pupils enjoyed joining their peers for physical education, Lake Rotoiti Lodge Year 9 camps, materials technology classes and spending break times around the college grounds, they also worked hard on

Over the next 27 years the department roll grew from nine to 42 and the college built four more teaching spaces, one of which is designed especially for students with Autistic Spectrum learning profiles. Today we have 36 students, six teachers and 11 teacher aides who work both full and part time. It has also been extremely rewarding to see our graduates living their lives all over Nelson and beyond. Chris is now living in a flat and working while he continues his passion for painting and for weight lifting in the National Special Olympics competitions. Kelly was our first student to go flatting with two of her friends, receiving a bit of help to do the cooking and other household management tasks. Two other friends, Ashleigh and Sonia are flatting together and go to NMIT part time. Flatting isn’t always easy, sometimes the week’s ice cream gets eaten all in one go and someone has their music too loud but with a guiding hand, these problems are always able to be sorted. Lisa, Amy, Troy and Natasha live in a house with fabulous care workers and spend their week days with their friends at Pinnacle House following their special interests. Maddie lives in her flat, goes to the gym every day and has her own business which involves the careful scanning of old photos to digitally preserve them, she also has some support for her cooking and household chores and Ben, who lives in a flat attached to his parents’ house, has continued with his screen printing business. The idea to host a Special Education depart-

ment reunion is down to staff member Alleigh Browning’s after she realised that since 1999, we haven’t had a chance to meet up with our graduates and their families and share their news. The event will provide an opportunity for graduates to take a tour of Waimea College and see all the changes, followed by a presentation from two of the department’s past students, who will talk briefly about what they are up to. To bring the day to a close, there will be an opportunity to catch up with long lost friends and have some photos taken. The Waimea College Special Education Reunion will be held on Wednesday, August 3, from 10:30am until 1pm, in the Waimea College Hall. Tickets can be picked up and purchased from the Waimea College Finance office on the day, which includes a goody bag, a morning tea, and when you buy a ticket you will receive a voluntary information sheet asking for contact details so staff

7 Gladstone Road, Richmond • www.npd.co.nz Waimea Motors has a long history in the Richmond community, meeting local’s fuel needs with a friendly face and a central location. Recently the service station underwent a

major facelift to create a much more modern-looking shop and forecourt, as well as changing fuel providers from Mobil to Nelson Petroleum Distributors, NPD. The one thing owners Barry and Cindy

Milne want people to know though, is that they’re still operating independently and are now back up-and-running after their six week closure for the upgrade work to take place.

After making the decision to move from Mobil to NPD, the change came into effect from January 1 this year and with it has come some great fuel-saving benefits for locals.

03 547 4666 www.coman.co.nz Proud to be associated with Waimea Motors NPD Waimea Motors has seen a major redevelopment including a spacious forecourt that allows drivers easier access and a new canopy stretching across the forecourt to the shop, meaning dry heads when fuelling up on rainy days.

“Our change in fuel suppliers has allowed us to do this redevelopment and provided some great offers to our customers, particularly the SuperGold card which gives people over 65 a 15 cent discount,” says Barry. Local shoppers can also get in on some amazing savings, with NPD Waimea Motors accepting all supermarket dockets and offering 12 cents off each time. Whether they’re from New World, Pak n Save, Countdown or any other supermarket, everyone is welcome to bring their fuel docket to the service station to claim this 12 cent discount, upgraded from the four to eight cents offered on most existing discount coupons. The fact Nelson Petroleum is a local supplier was also a driving factor in Barry and Cindy’s decision to switch. “Over the last few years NPD has been able to compete with the other four major companies. They are doing very well throughout the South Island with a lot of new sites, so it seemed like a great opportunity to be part of it,” says Barry. With their new partnership offering so many great advantages to drivers, why wouldn’t you want to fuel up at the Gladstone Rd service station, especially when it’s recent redevelopment

Nelson's fishing fleet to be blessed with fireworks

7 Gladstone Road, Richmond • www.npd.co.nz

Brittany Spencer

Fireworks will take to the sky and fishing boats will take to the sea, at this weekend’s Blessing of the Fishing Fleet. This is the 16th year the blessing has been held following the tragic loss of over 20 fishermen to the ocean in 1996. On Friday night, fireworks will stream across the sky from 6.30pm, with viewing from the waterfront and the port hills. The Motueka Brass Band will playing on Saturday from noon at the Seafarers’ Memorial, while the fishing boats line up along Wakefield Quay. The blessing ceremony and procession will begin at 12.30pm. Seafarers’ Memorial Trust spokesman Mike Smith says it’s an event that has won a place on the Nelson calendar and in people’s hearts. The friendly NPD team is from left, Tony “Blessings like this have been held in ports Page, Viv McGuckin, Taylor Milne, Daniel around the world for centuries, but this Nelson Belfield and Graham Shaw. event is unique in New Zealand,” he says. “It’s a 1961 when it was located where Dick Smith colourful ceremony in a beautiful location, and is Electronics Richmond is now. truly valued by families who have lost members 1985 they built a new| service station on PO Box 37346,InChristchurch 8245 112 Wrights Rd, Addington at sea as a way to remember them, when often Y: CJ Industries Ltd ATTN: Bruce RE: W&W Construction Feature their current location and -inBP 1989Richmond Barry and there is no grave to visit.ISSUE: BS3_2016 Art Dept: 03 983 5502 | Email: art@waterfordpress.co.nz Cindy took over the day-to-day running and “Nelson is Australasia's biggest fishing port by ownership of the business.

It’s been over a year since The New Gate Company 2007 Ltd shifted from Pascoe St to Echodale Pl and the business is thriving in their new location. Glen and Julie Berkett took over The New Gate Company in 2007, taking what had been a staff of two and growing it into a team of six dedicated professionals who have helped the business earn a glowing reputation both locally and beyond the region. Once of the main benefits of their new workshop and office is that it’s hard to miss.

Sitting proudly on the corner of Echodale Pl and Fayette Lane, the building offers easy access for customers and is right in the middle of the industrial business hub. While Glen and Julie have a huge customer base of their own, their new position has also meant new business relationships with surrounding company’s.

them," Dean says. "Goal scoring has been an issue for us and on another day the score would have been three or four nil." He says Jarron Steffens had his best game of the season and he wasn't alone in a strong team performance. Stoke coach Len Paris was at a loss to describe his team's dip in performance. "After last week you think everything is humming and then we have a result like that. It was a very even game but we didn't create enough chances to score." In the other men's match, Tasman United eased past Division two's Waimai United 4-0. Tasman coach Tim Kerr was pleased with the structure and shape his team kept, while

Federal’s first division one men's hockey victory of the season, at Saxton Turf on Saturday, may not have surprised them but you'd be forgiven if their opponents Stoke were surprised by the 1-0 result. Stoke had knocked over previously unbeaten Aotea Kiwi 7-1 just a week earlier but a Ryan Gerrish goal just before halftime proved enough to give Federal the win. Federal coach Dean Machen says his team deserved the win, having created a few clear goal scoring chances that should have extended the margin. "I thought we had it all over

Waimai United coach Brendon Burnett was pleased his team kept the match competitive given the youthful look of the team in 2016. In women's action at Saxton Turf, a goal in each half was enough to see Tasman ease past Beawai, 2-0. The match between Federal and Aotea Kiwi was cancelled as Federal had a number of players away for the under-18 tournament. Federal Titans men's team got the points for their game after Aotea Kiwi defaulted. There is no women's hockey this weekend due to school holidays and the various tournaments going on around the country, but the men will be in action.

Waimai United will face Stoke on Turf 1 at 12.30pm; Tasman will battle Federal Titans on the same turf at 2pm and Federal will face Waimai United 2 straight after at 3.30pm. The Nelson region has players competing for Tasman in the under-18 women's association tournament in Timaru this week as well as players representing Capital in the National Under-18 hockey tournament in Palmerston North. Olympics-bound Black Stick Kelsey Smith will be back in Nelson next Tuesday for a coaching clinic with young players, before she and fellow former Waimea College pupil Anita McLaren [formally Punt] complete their buildup for Rio next month.

A relieved Nelson College first XV captain William Havili realised his team was close to losing the Moascar Cup to St Thomas’ of Canterbury. His injury time penalty kick salvaged the game 27-25. It was the fourth game for the school in 10 days and William says they felt the energy drain during the game. "We made a lot of mistakes and kept them in it by not doing the basics." For the early and middle stages of the game it was William's boot that kept the game close. While Nelson College trailed 17-16 at halftime, they looked more dangerous in Nelson College captain the backs. William Havili slotted William's a game winning penalty goal kicking for a 27-25 win over St deserted him Thomas’. Photo: Evan in the middle Barnes/Shuttersport. stages. He missed three penalties in a row and St Thomas' confidence grew. "My timing was off and I was getting up too early for the kicks,” he says. Trailing by a point and with time up on the clock, the host's marched their way into the opposition 22 and eventually earned a penalty for offside right in front of the posts. St Thomas', to their credit, made no protest, and their chance at history vanished at the last possible moment.

netball’s next generation starts SporTS busy tournament period for nelson

CyCling: Nelson cyclist George Bennett will compete in the road race at the Rio Olympics. The 26-year-old, who is currently competing in the Tour de France, looks set to enjoy the mountainous Rio course which should suit his style of racing.

Nelson’s Saxton Stadium is hosting the next generation of Silver Ferns this week as the New Zealand Under-19 Netball Championships kick into action. More than 500 people are expected to converge on the event which began yesterday. Tasman is one of 18 teams competing, with the final to be played on Thursday at 3pm. All of Saxton Stadium’s five courts will be in action across four days. Nelson Netball Centre manager Chelsea Routhan says it is a chance for netball fans in the region, as well as young, aspiring players, to get a glimpse of New Zealand’s best emerging netball talent. Tasman find themselves in a challenging pool alongside Hutt Valley, Hamilton City, Pukekohe and Waitakere City. Tasman coach Robyn Leonard said the team was aiming to earn a couple of pool victories and finish mid-pack. “This is a tough age-group for us as a number of our players leave the region to

Rugby: Former Nelson College rugby player Mitchell Hunt debuted for the Crusaders in their 85-26 romp over the Melbourne Rebels on Saturday night. The 21-year-old, who is set to return to Tasman for the provincial rugby competition later this year, came off the bench as coach Todd Blackadder gave all his reserves a run.

Photo: Jacob Page. continue study.” Robyn says, defensively her team is strong, with Holly Chandler patrolling the defensive circle. With a lack of shooting depth, Tasman has called in South Canterbury’s Amber Horne to bolster the attackend. Tasman lost their first match on Monday to Waitakere 51-12. The school holidays will be a busy period for age group

tournaments in the region, with Nelson also hosting the New Zealand Basketball Under-19 tournament next week and the secondary school tournament week fast approaching at the end of next month. Sport Tasman chief executive Nigel Muir says tournaments like this can easily generate millions of dollars for the Nelson community. “Each player often brings

one to two extra people with them, whether that’s parents or grandparents,” he says. “They all need to eat, stay somewhere and do other activities to fill in their days here.” Nigel says, with nine out of 10 people involved in some sort of active pursuit and one in three volunteering their time to help with a sport or activity, sport is a big part of the Nelson economy.

Football: Suburbs Seals have a chance to wrap up the Nelson Bays division one football crown on Wednesday night against Richmond. Seals beat Wakefield 2-1 to continue their strong run, while their only challengers, Marlborough Mariners, beat Nelson Suburbs 2-1 to at least keep the pressure on. Richmond’s late season frustration continued with a 1-1 draw with Tahuna and Nelson College beat FC Nelson 3-0. Football: A Ryan Stewart goal was enough to see Nelson Suburbs past FC Twenty11 1-0 in their Mainland Premier League encounter. The Tasman United women lost 3-2 to Coastal Spirit. netball: Prices Pharmacy, Jacks OPD, Richmond Glass and Stoke NBS predictably won their opening games of the second round of Nelson Premier Netball last Thursday. The competition will return after the school holidays, on July 28. CRoquet: A successful open day was held on Sunday at the Nelson Hinemoa Croquet Club,with 10 new faces joining and enjoying the sport of croquet. A repeat will be held today at 1pm.

Lock’s long limbs leads to crucial try Jacob Page Sports Editor

Waimea Old Boys lock Lee McBrydie found the perfect time to score his first try of the season. The ranging lock probably wasn’t on the top of the list to be chasing a chip kick from his first five eights Luca Roden, but he got his legs pumping and grounded it deep in the ‘in goal.’ It proved to be the turning point

in Waimea Old Boys winning 22-18 and booking their spot in the semifinals of the Nelson Bays division one rugby competition. Lee’s second half effort came after a rough first half. A stray knee in a ruck had opened up a cut above his left eye. It made him look like a wounded boxer rather than a rugby player. “I’ve been chasing the ball all season so I was happy to get one. “I was thinking to myself that I had to keep running and try to watch the ball and hope for a good bounce.” The referee discussed the decision with his assistant in front of numerous WOB supporters and eventually agreed it was a try. “I was certain I got there first,” Lee says. “I saw it hit the ground with my hand so I was 100 per cent certain.” It opened up a 22-11 lead early in the second half and, despite a late try to Stoke winger Chris Little which set up a grandstand finish, the visitors held on. “The guys showed plenty of heart,” Lee says. “We have had a lot of injuries and there are

Jacob Page Max Darling and Tyler Marsh are two of the most promising players in Nelson basketball, but have had different paths to their success. Tyler, from Waimea College, is the youngest person to play in the National Basketball League, when he got court time for the Nelson Giants last year at the age of 14. It wasn't until Max was 12 that he even picked up a basketball. His mum convinced him to try out for the Tasman under-13 boys team. Just a few short years later, the Nelson College pupil has played for New Zealand at under-17 level in Australia and he was named tournament MVP. Not bad for someone who's barely picked up a basketball before trialling for an age group team. Tyler says he got into the game at age nine when his cousin and former Otago Nuggets basketballer

Ethan Carruthers gave him a basketball. The duo will be key components of Tasman's national under-17 campaign this week on the North Shore. Both have played together in Tasman teams, with current Giants captain Sam Dempster as their coach for a few years. With Max standing 6ft 4 and Tyler 6ft 3, they offer the size Tasman teams traditionally lack. Max says he knows he has to perform and believes he will. "There's expectation on me and that brings pressure, but I think I play my best like that." Tyler will play an important leadership role. "We know we can win the tournament," he says. "We just have to play with confidence and everyone has to step up." Both say they'd love to play in the NBA but believed getting paid to play the game was a big enough aspiration for now.
