Five-storey complex for Tahuna Tahunanui’s proposed Ocean Lodge development, to boost Nelson’s beachside suburb with a retail centre, restaurants and both residential and holiday apartments, could be approved within a few months. But the proposal is a shift from the larger scale supermarket complex that had earlier been discussed. Wakatu Incorporation has owned the site bordering Nelson’s Beach Rd and Muritai St for 20 years, with an intention to develop it for the last ten. They are now seeking approval to increase the number of storeys of the 39-unit apartment block from four to five, which also includes a ground-level car park. Iain Sheves, general manager of property for Wakatu Incorporation, presented indicative designs at a Nelson City Council meeting on Thursday, and said the final height will not exceed

16m, with no increase in the gazetted maximum height, which is currently 20m. He said that building the additional storey to the apartment block will give the project a “much better chance of going ahead” and leaving it as it is would result in marginal financial performance, design compromise or the build not proceeding. Iain said that while the design process is ongoing, they are aiming to provide

corporate so many different ideas from different people,” says Tasman Youth Council’s Taylah Shuker. “This is such a learning experience for us, holding an event this massive. I think we’ll use a lot of these concepts and ideas, and just improve it and keep making it bigger and better.” Around 400 people took part in Colour Craze, with the event successfully raising $3115. The profits from Colour Craze will be going towards the Nelson Multicultural Society.

Iain says the consent will be lodged before September 1 and, if the consent is approved, then plans would need to be finalised, followed by a tender process before work could begin on the property. The resource consent process for a special housing area can take between 20 and 70 days, depending on the type of application.

Turbulence has hit a second new-comer into the Nelson airline market less than a year after launching. Last year Kiwi Regional Airlines, Originair and Jetstar all announced they would start flying to Nelson, joining Air New Zealand, Sounds Air and Air2There. But not even 12 months after the first of the three started flying, one has been grounded due to licencing issues and the other has been sold with the new owner not continuing the Nelson routes. On Friday, Kiwi Regional Airlines announced its sole aeroplane was to be sold to Air Chathams. In a statement it said the new owner would not continue with its current routes, including to and from Nelson and that the sale would be completed on July 30. Kiwi Regional Airlines offered flights from Nelson to Dunedin, Hamilton and Tauranga. All passengers that have booked flights after that date will have their airfares re-

ART GROUP EXHIBITION: Francie Heathfield with her textured art on exhibition at the Art Group Nelson Winter Exhibition on the weekend. Just under 50 local artists filled the Stoke Memorial Hall with around 300 pieces for the weekend-long Art Group Nelson Winter Exhibition. Art Group Nelson president Lyn Broughton says the exhibition was just brilliant. “It was a great opportunity for members to bring the art they do as a hobby out of the woodwork and into an exhibition. We had plenty of sales and the most expensive piece ‘Endangered Beauty’, a beautiful coloured pencil tiger by Bernd Huff, was the first to sell. A lady walked right in, fell in love with it and said, ‘I’ll have it’.” Photo: Brittany Spencer.

Mayoral candidate Pete Rainey’s call for a referendum on the controversial Southern Link has been put to bed, with Nelson City Councillors voting against it at Thursday’s ordinary council meeting. It was very much a one-sided debate, with councillors voting 10 votes to two, with the absence of Cr Luke Acland. Not surprisingly, Pete Rainey was one of the two saying yes, along with Cr Matt Lawrey. Rainey put the call out for a referendum last month, which was pinned to be a simple ‘yes or no’ poll to be included with the postal vote in the upcoming October election, with an estimated cost of $20,000 to conduct. Rainey said back then that “there is no question that Nelson has a traffic congestion problem”, and he wanted to get a clear view from the people of the city on where they stand. He said a referendum “would be the most cost-effective way to make it happen”. Cr Eric Davy was the first to give the referendum the thumbs down, saying a poll at this time “would be based on emotion” and “Nelson isn’t

No decision on Victory liquor site Kate Russell

The future of Victory’s ex liquor store site is still up in the air, with the new owner still looking for “appropriate tenants” for the site. The store is just one in a block of shops located on the corner of St Vincent

St and Toi Toi St that were sold to a Wellington investor last month, and includes a new pie and coffee shop ‘Swish’, a laundromat, a tattoo parlour and the Food for Families kitchen. The controversial liquor store shut its doors for good in September last year, after its application for a liquor licence

was withdrawn by the owners due to heavy opposition to the store from the Victory community. The new owner says they are currently working with the existing tenant, but have someone interested in taking over the lease and are working through some “parking issues” with Nelson City Council.

MAPUA PROTEST: Already the scene of anger after council’s overspend on the Shed 4 development, Mapua Wharf has once again caused controversy with the construction of a fence. The barrier, which is also being built by Tasman District council, is located between their commercial Shed 4 complex and a rival neighbouring cafe which was opened by Adele Caleaux, formerly of Hamish’s. A protest against the fence was held on Sunday, attracting around 100 members of the public including residents, Mapua wharf shop owners and Tasman District mayoral candidate Kit Maling. “There’s no need for the fence, the community has said we don’t want it,” says protest organiser, Roger Griffiths. “[Council] are elected to serve the public and I think they just get sidetracked. Labelled ‘unnecessary’ and a form of ‘bullying’ by protestors, shop owner Charisse Papworth says the fence blocks her business and others from visitors, potentially affecting their sales.

For the love of Greyhounds

Jessie Johnston

Greyhound owners all around the world took time to celebrate their dogs last Sunday during the Global Greyhound Walk, including the Nelson branch of Greyhounds as Pets. Greyhounds as Pets New Zealand (GAP) is a charitable organisation, established by Greyhound Racing New Zealand in order to find homes for retired racing greyhounds.

Elise Walton is the area coordinator for Greyhounds as Pets New Zealand and organised last Sunday's walk along the Railway Reserve to recognise the annual event. Around 15 dogs and their owners took part, the theme for their walk being 'Mad Hatters and their dogs.' Once a greyhound has left its racing career, it’s up to the Greyhounds as Pets organisation to help them find a new home where they will become a much loved pet. The adoption process in-

cludes an application to be submitted by the prospective owners, followed by a home visit by one of GAP's volunteers, before people are matched with their ideal companion. For those who have adopted a greyhound, the Nelson branch meets once a month for a group walk. Anyone interested in adopting a greyhound is welcome to email Elise at elisewgap@ gmail.com for more information on the organisation.

"We interviewed a lot of graduates at the time we took on Lal and his qualifications and attitude put him ahead of the rest," Andy says. "He was someone we couldn't afford not to employ." Downer New Zealand won the Hirepool Supreme Award at Friday's awards, for the Rocks Rd Cliff Stabilisation contract. Downer had already won the ASB Bank Limited Health and Safety Award for the Rocks Rd Stabilisation contract which judges said had perfect health and safety practises on what was potentially an ex-

tremely hazardous site. Downer's Mike Riley says the contract was "technically very demanding", with staff working on a steep cliff above the busiest road in Nelson. Mike says their staff and key contractor, Ground, also had to work closely with residents because they needed access through their properties to complete the contract. "We had to put in a lot of rock anchors and reinforcing mesh on that cliff, and then spray concrete on to it and still keep the road open. We didn't have one health and safety or traffic issue, which is amazing."

Nelson's Lal Cinzah has come a long way since he arrived in this country as a 14-year-old refugee from Myanmar in 2006. Lal was quick to embrace his new country, overcoming the "big challenge" of learning English to excel in his studies at Nelson College. He graduated from college in 2010 and subsequently became the first Chin refugee to gain an engineering degree from Canterbury University in 2014. On Friday, Lal added to his growing list of achievements by winning the Humes Young Achievers Award at the Civil Contractors NZ Nelson-Marlborough Branch Awards held at the Annesbrook Church. "It was a big challenge coming to a new country with a new culture and language and even food," Lal says. "But I was quite young so that helped me adapt and I made lots of good friends at school." Lal says he has always been interested in engineering because it's a practical profession that's all about solving problems. He joined Fulton Hogan in 2014 after completing 400 hours of practical work there in his third year as a student. "Working at Fulton Hogan has been really good as a graduate because they give me lots of opportunities to get experience. Engineering has lots of challenges and I really like the challenges." Fulton Hogan's regional manager Andy Allen says Lal's is "a good young guy and

"We also had to be respectful of everyone's properties. When you move into a street to do a job, you are moving into someone else's community - it's not your street, it's where these people live and you have to respect them." Downer also won Land Dimensions Ltd Projects Valued $750,000 to $1.5million for their Borck Creek Poutama Drain Upgrade. That contract was joint-winner of the ASB Bank Limited Health and Safety Award. The Hynds Projects Valued over $1.5million was won by Higgins Contractors Nelson for the State Highway 1 Dashwood Overbridge Realignment, while Mike Edridge Contracting won the Cable Price Projects Valued $200,000 to $750,000 for the Constellation Brands Erina Downs Irrigation Reservoir contract. Bryant Earthworks Ltd (Grovetown Gabion Works) and Fulton Hogan (Spooners Tunnel Approaches and Cycle Trail) were joint-winners of the Crowe Horwath Projects Valued $50,000 to $200,000. The Edridge Crushing and Screening for Projects Valued $0 to $50,000 Award was won by Mike Edridge Contracting for the Speeds Road Bridge contract. The Bank of New Zealand Judges Special Recognition Awards went to Donaldson Civil for the Seaton Valley Stream Widening and Bryant Earthworks for their role in the emergency support to Marlborough Kaikoura Rural Fire Authority during a busy fire season.

Salisbury School set to close

An announcement that Salisbury School is proposed to close at the end of this year has left staff, students and the public wanting to save the school - again. Salisbury School Board of Trustees chair John Kane says education minister Hekia Parata has wanted to close the school since 2012. “So the news is not surprising, however, it is none the less devastating.” The planned closure in 2012 was abandoned when the board of trustees won a court case against its closure. Since then rolls numbers have dropped significantly. Currently there are just nine students at the school. John says the dramatic enrolment decrease is a result of the Ministry’s Intensive Wrap-around Service which has been in control and managing down the school’s enrolments since 2012. “From a school averaging 80 students in the years leading up to 2012 to just nine this year shows the sinking lid effect of the IWS. “Parents tell us they were not even offered Salisbury when applying for the IWS, and they had to go to extreme lengths to be allowed to choose Salisbury,” says John. Former staff and students have come out in support of the school. The proposed date for the school’s closure is January 27 next year.

MARCH FOR ORLANDO: Roux Phoenix (centre), led Saturday’s March for Orlando, carrying a sign of remembrance and defiance of the Orlando night club shootings. On Saturday morning, a group of over 60 people led by Q Youth donned the colours of the rainbow and marched for Orlando. The group took off from the Nelson I-site, stopping traffic and turning heads as they walked to the top of Trafalgar St. At the top, marchers paused for a minute's silence before listening to a poem and laying down flowers and flags in remembrance of the victims. To see a video of the March for Orlando, go to www.nelsonlive. co.nz. Photo: Brittany Spencer.

MATARIKI CELEBRATIONS: Victory’s Mary Herron, 5, says she loved the interactive neon zone at the Victory Community Centre Matariki celebrations on Wednesday. The Victory Matariki celebrations are a popular annual event, this year was the biggest yet. Photo: Brittany Spencer.

Lights go out on ‘biggest and brightest’ Lantern Parade The Railway Reserve was lit up with LEDs, neon and home-made lanterns last Wednesday night for the Matariki Lantern Parade. Over a thousand people met at the Victory Community Centre to celebrate the Māori new year with a parade, performances and a hangi. However, the parade was darkened after a number of spot lights and props were nabbed during the celebrations. “The hours, goodwill and expense our dedicated outdoor crews put into this event is obviously hard for a select few in our community to appreciate,” says event manager Nicola Baré. “Please, when you are out and about this weekend and come across a wandering jellyfish, wooden Matariki stars, colour changing garden lights or commercial spot lights, please drop them into the centre next week. Without it, Matariki 2017 will be very dark.” Despite the thefts, Nicola says the celebrations were amazing. “It was definitely the biggest and brightest Matariki night yet, I’ve heard nothing but good things from the community and everyone had a good night.” The twisty twins, community groups and several other acts lit up the Railway Reserve parade for locals who showed up in force to enjoy the entertainment, lights, neon zone and traditional kai. While the annual lantern parade was a major draw card, Nicola says the hangi, was by far, one of the crowd favourites. “We managed to feed record numbers with the hangi, we served out around a thousand plates and had a lot of people coming just for the hangi.”

[Kiwi Regional Airlines] was the WORST airline experience I have ever had. Still over $1200 out-of-pocket. Staff were lovely, management were sods. Their plane broke down on the tarmac in Dunedin and, after five hours wait, they said '"go home and come back tomorrow". Not so easy for those who live in Nelson or Hamilton. They stonewalled everybody, refusing any and all assistance and have continued a policy of 'dodge and spin' ever since. Abigail Packer.

I was a Salisbury School student in 1996. I really thrived at the school, learnt how to look after myself and learnt what it was like to be out in the community doing work experience, getting ready to go out into the work force.

Local joiner wins on the national stage

Brittany Spencer

From apprentice joiner, to foreman, to national award winner. Howie Weeden has had a busy time of it lately. The Orange Joinery apprentice, and now foreman, Howie took out the best fitment category on May 28. What clinched his win was an under-stair shelving display unit he’d made and entered in the Nelson Marlborough Master Joiners Apprentice Awards. The multi piece unit had lighting, eight compartments and a trap door, and had to combat everything from access to bowed flooring and stairs. “I won my category in the regional round and, without me knowing, Phil Thompson [of Laminex Nelson] entered me in the national competition and next thing you know I get a call saying, ‘you’re headed to Queenstown’. I even had to go out and buy a suit and tie.” Nelson Pine Industries sponsored Howie a night’s accommodation and travel to and from the three-day conference and awards, but Howie was also sponsored by his work and the local master joiners who funded him to stay for the

Howie says he didn’t quite believe he’d won at first. “There were about 200 people there but all us Nelson guys were together at one table, and as soon as they announced my name everyone was cheering and the table went crazy.” As for what’s next, he says he’s happy to keep doing what he’s doing. Howie began joinery fresh out of Nayland College four years ago and has been with Orange Joinery the whole time. “It’s pretty rewarding,” says Howie. “They’ll give you a basic drawing and say ‘make it’, so you’ll go away and make it,

but then you get to stand back and see it once it’s done and that feels so rewarding, then the client comes along and gets really excited, that’s what does it for me.” Howie makes everything from stairs, windows, kitchens, display units, fitments and even small chopping boards. His boss, Orange Joinery manager John Andrew, says he couldn’t be prouder and loves having Howie on the team. “He’s a good young man and I’m very proud of him but I don’t want to say that too much in case he gets a big head, but no, he did great, hence why he’s our foreman now.”

Early in June Specialist Vein Health, or SVH, upped sticks and moved clinics to Rutherford Healthcare in the city. “JK Wicks has held clinics at the Richmond centre for three years or more but we all decided it was time to move to be more accessible for our patients and located with the other specialists in town,” says Richard Evans, vein and artery specialist.

Natureland opens Tight-knit group forms at library new aviaries

Photo: Brittany Spencer. “The main reasons behind doing this programme is connecting people with a shared interest, producing something for the babies in our community, teaching people a new skill, showcasing the knitting books and magazines that the library has on offer and also highlight-

ing the role of the library as the sitting room of the community,” she says. While some of the ladies have knitted since the neighbours taught them as young girls, others have never picked up a pair of needle before but are just keen to do some good.

.CO.NZ

Locals can now get up close and personal with native kaka after Natureland officially opened up their Conservation Corner yesterday. The breed-for-release area has been under construction for six months and in the pipeline since Natureland trustees Mike Rutledge and Meg Selby “first walked in the door”. “Since we took over, this is something we’ve been really passionate about making happen, so it really is exciting,” says Mike. “What we’re trying to do here is engage as many people as possible with some of the fantastic conservation work that is going on in the back blocks of the Abel Tasman, Nelson Lakes and a lot of other places.” Mike says its great to finally be able to show visitors their new birds and breeding programme. “We want to show off the work of

other conservation projects and show how all these pieces connect together around bio diversity in the region, it is really exciting and something we’re stoked to be a part of.” The Conservation Corner has four aviaries and a brooding centre, the area is currently home to three South Island kaka and 12 yellowcrowned kakariki, but the flock will only get bigger. “This facility allows us to do everything from the incubation of eggs right through to flight prepping and fully-fledged birds ready to be released into the wild.” Natureland are working with Project Janszoon, the Department of Conservation and the Brook Waimarama Sanctuary. “We’re using the expertise of Natureland to provide environments that are going to be really conducive to breeding and be able to turn out birds that are really well prepared to go out and survive in the wild.”

Knitters of Nelson got together for a bit of a knit and a natter on World Knit in Public Day on Saturday. The Elma Turner Library opened its doors to knitters for the day and will continue to do so each week as part of a new inlibrary knitting for charity club. The club will meet every Thursday from 10am to knit for charity and already they have 16 pure-wool peggy squares ready to be made into blankets for the families from the Nelson Plunket. For those who can’t make the club, wool and needles will be put out in the library during the week so people can pop in and do a row or two, and then others can carry it on. Organiser Viv Rounce says she was inspired by a Whanganui Library who were doing a similar thing and wanted to see the same tight-knit charitable group in Nelson.

The idea of working for nothing may seem strange, but that is exactly what thousands of New Zealanders do every day of the week by giving up their free time to be volunteers. “About one in three people in New Zealand is a volunteer, which is one of the highest in the world and supports the claim that New Zealanders are some of the most generous people around,” says Volunteer Nelson’s assistant manager, Gordon Oldfield. This number reflects those people regularly undertaking a specific task within an organisation, but if less formal volunteering was included in which volunteers did a street collection or assisted in an event, the num-

ber would be even higher. “Volunteers can be found in just about every sector including health and social services, emergency services, environmental services, conservation and community sports, says Volunteer Nelson manager, Katy Steel. “We would not recognise our community without volunteers.” The range of volunteering opportunities in the Nelson Tasman region is enormous and the core business of Volunteer Nelson is to refer people who have registered with the agency to organisations that need volunteers. Recently, a new online volunteering referral system has been added to the Volunteer Nelson

his reason that Voluneer Nelson has expanded nto other community rientated support acvities such as the New Comers Network. Voluneer Nelson also hosts the Community News and Views on its website and llows community organations to post notices at o charge. Volunteer Nelon organises Community nd Whanau meetings, an pen forum for members f the public, representaves of community oranisations, Nelson City ouncillors and council taff to meet, network and sten to presentations of sues affecting the community.

But perhaps the most important way that Volunteer Nelson supports the community is by holding low cost workshops that are aimed at improving the effectiveness of community organisations. These workshops cover areas such as governance, financial management, and using social media. In October last year Volunteer Nelson organised a national speaking tour for Rob Jackson who is a consultant to a number of large not-for-profit organizations in the UK. The subject of his presentation was engaging volunteers in the 21st century and was well received by

attendees. National Volunteer Week will run from June 19 to 26 this year and traditionally Volunteer Nelson holds an event to recognise and celebrate volunteering in the region. This year, a graduation celebration will be held at the Nelson Fire Station to complete the Youth in Emergency Services project. Seventeen youth between the ages of 16 and 18 years have participated in the project, which was held for the first time in Nelson. Emergency services in New Zealand are volunteer-involving organisations with some services

being entirely dependent on them. Youth in Emergency Services began in February this year and ends on Thursday 23 June. Its purpose was to introduce youth to the emergency services in two phases. The first included theoretical presentations by each service, followed by a practical session on the weekend. The second phase required the young volunteers to select a service and participate in its activities. The graduation celebration will be attended by Hon. Dr Nick Smith, Mayor Rachel Reece (NCC), Mayor Richard Kempthorne (TDC) and Kevin Grimwood of the

Ministry of Youth Development. The Youth in Emergency Services forms part of Volunteer Nelson’s youth volunteering programme, an initiative to develop youth volunteering in the region. So, would you consider working for nothing? Volunteers will tell you that you get so much out of it, that it connects you to your community and it helps you learn more about yourself.

Burning for heat, not smoke however, your chimney smokes for As the weather gets colder, make sure you are using your woodburner efficiently. This will save you money and help keep the air clear for your family, friends and neighbours. Some smoke is allowed when starting your fire, and when you refuel. If,

more than 5-10 minutes at start up, and a further five minutes per hour when refuelling, you aren’t maximising the heat from the wood – in fact your hard-earned money is going up in smoke! A smoky chimney is usually caused by:

• Using wet or damp wood • A dirty flue • Closing the air control (damper) too soon after putting on a new piece of wood • “Banking” the fire up with wood then damping it down before going out for the day or to bed at night. As well as wasting expensive fuel, inefficient burning increases the risk of emissions exceeding acceptable levels and causes health issues for you, your family and your neigh-

To make sure you are saving money and keeping our air clear, simply check how long the chimney smokes when you light your fire – if it is more than 10 minutes, we recommend that you: • Check your firewood is dry and stacked properly • Check that your chimney is clean • Don’t fill the burner up with wood and then damp it down • Go to nelson.govt.nz and

“man’s best friend” dog training, awareness and safety Every dog has the ability to be “man’s best friend” when they receive the right training and the same level of love and affection that they bestow upon us. Todd Field, veterinarian at Hali-

and for years and years the focus has been on the breed being the main way we can prevent them.

Dog registrations closing soon: A reminder 2016 / 2017 dog registrations are due by 30 June. This year’s tag is blue. To register your dog you can either: • bring your registration form into our Customer Services Centre • complete the registration form online and send it to us (nelson.govt.nz – search “Dog registration”) and then make a payment online (search “Online payment” – use your dog owner number as a reference). We will send you out a new tag. A big “Thank You“ to all our dog owners who have already registered their dogs for this year – remember; it is a requirement of the Dog Control Act 1996 that all dogs are registered at three months of age.

Halifax Vet Centre was the first clinic in New Zealand to run puppy classes, starting over 20 years ago after they saw it happening in America. “The biggest thing we can do is early training and early socialisation,” says Todd. “Puppies have a huge socialisation period until about 16 weeks of age. In that first eight weeks, they really need to be with the breeder where they’re exposed to the other puppies, mum can teach them about interaction with other dogs, hopefully they meet children and loud noises in that household, then once they have that base work we get them and really have to work at that socialisation with other dogs [in puppy school], so by 16 weeks

of age they've done a big portion of their learning about the world. If you just chuck them in a cage and forget about them, those dogs are more likely to have serious behavioural issues long term.” As well as providing socialisation and obedience training, puppy school also offers Halifax the chance to educate owners on what Nelson City Council expects from them, including microchipping, the importance of desexing and vaccinations, as well as making sure owners are using effective positive reinforcement to train their pet, rather than “those things that we used to thing were right such as hitting dogs, it doesn’t work,” says Todd. “In a lot of those dog bite statistics, we've let those dogs down, rather than those dogs being inherently nasty.”

Dogs that are not registered by 31 July will incur a 50% penalty fee on top of the registration fee.

“man’s best friend” dog training, awareness and safety And when it comes to the euthanasia of dogs with behavioural issues, Todd says it’s a horrible part of the job, but fortunately, it doesn’t happen often as many dogs have the potential to have their behaviour corrected. While training and socialisation are both key to being a responsible owner, it’s also important for people to identify whether they have the time and resources to take care of a dog. “People underestimate the costs and the amount of time that you need to spend on a dog. We certainly don't recommend that people who are out at work all day take puppies, because they just need too much training. People also need to make a plan for unexpected veterinary costs,” says SPCA inspector, Nicola Blasdale. When people choose to adopt from the SPCA, they get the opportunity to have the dog

live with them for two weeks on a trial period. “During that time we supply all the food and medications that the dog might need and it’s a really good opportunity to see whether the dog fits into your lifestyle,” says Nicola. There are a number of reasons why dogs are given up to SPCA, but between the period of April 1, 2015 and March 31, 2016 Nelson SPCA took in 304 dogs, 134 of them puppies, including full litters. Nicola says the Nelson SPCA is very approachable and they would rather people came to them for help with food, instead of dumping young puppies anonymously when

they should still be with their mother. SPCA also runs two charity shops that people can support with donations or through purchases, and have a Facebook page where they post appeals for certain items such as blankets and towels, stray animals, and animals up for adoption. While there is a lot of responsibility involved in owning a dog, their companionship is a wonderful reward for the time and effort you put into their care and training.

Father and son pair up for leg of Monaco marathon

Jacob Page

Wil Thornalley ran his first half marathon as part of a two man team at just 12-years-old. Wil wanted to run the leg alongside his Dad, Brett, who had also completed his first marathon at the same age. “I really enjoyed it,” Wil says. “It was what I expected it to be and to do it with Dad was great.” Brett says his son proved to be the one setting the pace out on the course. “I hadn’t done a half marathon for five or six years but thought this was the perfect opportunity. “He (Wil) certainly kept me motivated and I was proud to be able to do it with him and experience it, as not every father gets

Gasping for air, hands on knees and struggling for that first spoken sentence were all common sights at the finish line of the Monaco mid-winter marathon on Sunday. Those first time finishers barely had the energy to bow their heads to receive their medal, their knees wobbly and an exhausted handshake of accomplishment often came next. While winner Aditya KesarcodWatson completed the 42.2km run from Monaco to Rabbit Island and back in 2 hours and 39 minutes, for others it was more of a personal journey.

that opportunity.” Richmond’s Greg Delaney was one of 24 people to complete his first marathon on the day. An experienced trail runner, he admitted to going “to a deep, dark place” late in the event. “To be honest, there was a few times where I thought about giving up,” Greg says. “Your body tells you that you can’t do it. “It feels great to finish but I don’t think I’ll be walking properly for a couple of weeks." More than 200 competitors took part in the event which raised several thousand dollars for the Mental Health Foundation of New Zealand and the Great Taste Trail.

It may be winter but that probably won’t stop families throwing togs and towels in a bag and heading to the Richmond Aquatic Centre, especially now that the wave pool is up and running again. After five weeks of maintenance the pool is once again full of water and at a beautiful 29 degrees celsius, you can leave winter behind when you step through the door. After signs of cracking appeared in one of the walls inside the wave pool, it was decided to bring forward some of the scheduled maintenance. “If we have to drain the pool we need to ensure we get as much as we can done within that period, because it’s a very popular pool. At the end of they day we didn’t want to close it but it needed to be done and now it is,” says facility manager Vaughan Hope. As well as fixing the wall, the wave pool has had the expansion joints on the bottom replaced, maintenance performed on the wave generator, the pools pumps were serviced, a regular task made much easier when the pool is out of operation, a massive deep clean of the pool bottom was completed and the safety poles around the outside of the pool

many other user groups get enjoyment out of the facility. The wave pool is used by aqua joggers, kayakers who teach water safety, as well as training for those going out on commercial boats as it can simulate the rougher water conditions. “As soon as kids and parents heard the wave pool was reopening, they just went crazy and we’ve had so many people in there since, we’ve got a lot of feedback. We knew within the facility it was a great feature pool and we knew how many people used it but it’s not until the pools not operating that you really start to see how popular it is,” says Vaughan. The Richmond Aquatic Centre is unique within the region as it can cater to everyone at the same time, from six month old babies doing mother and baby water sessions, to seniors maintaining an active lifestyle. As well as the wave pool, the centre features a number of other pools including spas and a lane pool, a fitness centre, a swim school, after school care program, a holiday program and a café.

Waimea surge past Prices late Jacob Page

Waimea refused to accept the sporting script handed to them and came from behind late in the fourth quarter to beat Prices 26-24 in their senior 2 netball encounter. Prices held the lead almost exclusively at Saxton Stadium, until four minutes to go. Waimea were more composed with the game on the line, they treasured posses-

was lacking the accuracy. Waimea goal defence Louise Walker and wing defence Neve McKenzie were dynamic in picking off loose passes from Prices. However, they were matched by the Prices defensive duo of goal keep Rachel Portoreous and goal defence Kimberley Binns. Prices led by four goals after the first quarter but that advantaged was trimmed back to 12-12 at halftime.

Several times it looked like Prices would build on their slender advantage, but each time a poor pass or welltimed intercept thwarted their efforts. Both defences could be satisfied with their work, but it was the feeding into the attacking third and shooting circle for both teams which

Prices controlled the third quarter but that didn't translate into a winning advantage on the scoreboard. Their two goal advantage at the final break was eventually erased. Waimea held their nerve to hang on to a two goal advantage. While Prices had a couple of late chances to draw level, they botched the opportunities and Waimea were left visibly thrilled to have held on for the win.

Life is brighter since Marjorie moved into her spacious serviced apartment at Summerset in the Sun. Marjorie has always lived an active life with family, golf, bowls and floral art to name a few of her passions. Yet living in the family home was beginning to feel a little quiet. “My son Graeme was concerned I was rattling around on my own, even though he’d visit nearly every day. One day he said ‘Just come down and see the village for yourself.’ And I thought well, I have got nothing to lose.” Since moving into her serviced apartment you’ll find Marjorie zipping around to catch up with friends, taking part in the many activities on offer or reading The Press in the sunny library. Her son still comes in to catch up over coffee every day, and the grandkids love visiting and playing in the pool.

One of Nelson and Tasman cycling’s longest-serving officials is getting off his bike after more than a quarter of a century of helping organise, marshal and promote races around the region. Malcolm Saunders will be stepping down from the Tasman Wheelers committee at the club’s annual general meeting on Thursday, after 24 years as president. It will mark the end of an era for the club which has grown from around 30 riders to 240 during Malcolm’s presidency, to become one of the biggest and most successful clubs in the country. “The club is in very good heart and has an exciting future with a lot of things to look forward to,” Malcolm says. “We also have a good team coming in with Christine [van Hoppe] as president, so it’s a good time to step aside.” Malcolm, who cycled “competitively as a youngster in Christchurch”, became involved with Tasman Wheelers soon after it was formed in 1987, taking over from founding president Dave Glover in 1993. Malcolm says cyclists around the region owe a big debt to the “bunch of guys who wanted road racing around Nelson and Tasman” and had the

Winning the Moascar Cup is one thing, but keeping it will require the same steely resolve the Nelson College First XV showed in their 18-3 win over Timaru Boys’ High School on Saturday. The Moascar Cup is essentially the Ranfurly Shield of New Zealand secondary school rugby and has been around since the 1920s. It is the first time Nelson College has held, or even challenged for, the Cup, with team manager Peter Grigg saying while it’s a once in a lifetime feeling to win it, keeping it will be the bigger challenge. “You speak to players who held the Ranfurly Shield and they say you go out there each weekend and try to win it all over again. “That will be our attitude. The guys know they achieved

Captain Willy Havilli led the way for the visitors as he scored 13 points, including a crucial individual try in the second half which gave Nelson College a game-defining buffer on the scoreboard. “Willy controlled us around the park really well and led from the front.”

An early try from winger Archie Smith set Nelson College on their way and, while they only led 8-3 at halftime, 10 more points from Havili and impenetrable Nelson defence meant the Moascar Cup was on its way to its third new home in as many weeks. TBHS had beaten St Andrews to earn it for the first time the previous weekend and, ironically, it would be the Christchurch school that will travel to Nelson College on Saturday to try to win it back.

Locals make NZ Gridiron team Simon bloomberg

You could excuse Shane Tinetti and Jono Entwhistle for feeling like the odd couple at training at Jubilee Park over the last few months. While Waimea Old Boys rugby players have been scrumming, kicking and passing (backwards) at training, on the cold winter nights, Shane and Jono have been practising their snapping, sacking and rushing as they prepare for the biggest games of their careers. That's because the two Nelson Honeybadgers players have been selected for two national American football teams to play internationals later this year. Shane and Jono have been named in the national flag, or touch, team to play in the world champs in the Bahamas in September, while Jono will also play for the Steelblacks against American Samoa in the full contact version of the game in Auckland next month. They have been training together "in a corner at Jubilee Park" to prepare for the games, in between trips to Auckland to join their team-mates at national training camps. "We train at Jubilee Park because it has lights and the Waimea Old Boys guys are

good enough to let us have a corner of the park to do our own thing," Shane says. "We've also been going up to Auckland every second or third weekend to train, so it's been a big commitment." Shane, who plays defensive back, says it's a huge honour to be named in national teams and he's hoping that their selection

will help lift the profile of American football in Nelson. The Nelson Honeybadgers have about 30 players at present and play in a 10-a-side flag competition at Tahunanui from October to December. "We've had an American football competition going for about a year in Nelson so it's still new," Shane says. "We have a real mix

of guys - rugby players, hockey player and football players - and try and play in the summer so we don't clash with rugby and league. "It's just flag at the moment because you can have guys and girls and a mix of ages playing, which helps get more people involved. It also costs around $500 to gear guys up for contact so it's easier to start with flag, but once we get up and running we'll look at a tackle team.” Jono, who plays quarter back, says he has been playing for more than a decade and has had a few injuries in his time. “My very first [tackle] game, my very first snap five years ago in Wellington, I got my ankle broken after I was sacked. “Then, a few years later, I was playing in Hawaii for the Southern Cross All Stars, which was a mix of Australia and New Zealand, and eight plays in I got carried off the field after my running back missed a block and I got lit up.” Jono says he likes the sport because of how specialised it is. “Different body shapes and sizes have different positions and it’s a chess match of a game. The complexities are really intriguing. It’s an unselfish sport.” The Steelblacks game against American Samoa will be played at Auckland on July 16.
