By Andrew VIVIAN NSW PREMIER Chris Minns, Environment Minister Penny Sharpe, and Agriculture and Regional NSW Minister Tara Moriarty announced the establishment of three advisory panels to provide input to the creation of the Great Koala National Park (GKNP). Before addressing media representatives at Bongil Bongil National Park, they were given a briefing from Dr Adam Roff, one of the senior research scientists with the Department of Planning and Environment, about how sophisticated drones are being used to monitor koalas in forests. The koala-seeking drones have been used in more than 800 surveys covering more than 50,000 hectares in NSW and have been a huge success.

Concerns over mining exploration in the Nambucca Valley By Ned COWIE COMMUNITY group ‘Lock the Nambucca Valley’ (LNV) has expressed concerns about an exploration licence issued to mineral exploration company ‘Summit Minerals’ allowing them to explore for minerals, including antimony, in the Nambucca and Macleay Valleys. LNV claims that landholders in the area are currently being served with Land Access Agreements as the company seeks to expand its exploration efforts. The prospect of antimony mining in the region has prompted LNV to express their concerns. LNV successfully opposed antimony mining exploration in the Nambucca Valley in 2012 and hopes to do so again. LNV has extended its support to landowners whose properties may be targeted for mining exploration. They are urging affected parties not to sign any agreements or documents related to exploration without first consulting with their group to understand their rights. To inform and engage the community, LNV has organised a public meeting at the Macksville Ex-Services Club Auditorium on Tuesday,

heavy rain, which could affect farming, fishing, and the oyster industry, forest destruction required for access, potential damage to private property, and roads, among other issues. LNV is also offering Lock The Gate signs for purchase and display to further raise awareness and opposition to the exploration and potential mining operations.

November 14 at 5:30 pm, where all concerned individuals are welcome to attend. The group's primary concerns revolve around the potential impact of mining exploration on the region. LNV say their concerns include the utilisation of local water resources, the risk of potentially toxic river pollution following

LNV's Marion Syratt told News Of The Area, “We hope that as many concerned locals and other community groups will come to Tuesday’s meeting so we can really get people informed.” LVN expects Summit Minerals to be represented at the meeting. News Of The Area has contacted Summit Minerals for comment. For more information and support, interested parties can contact LNV at dugblackwell@gmail.com.

Irate community members announce meeting to discuss blueberry farming rules in the Nambucca Valley FROM Page 1 2023 to discuss several new intensive farming operations in the Nambucca Valley. “Blueberry farming can be very destructive to the surrounding waterways and the local environment, but it is not well policed by the EPA or the Council,” Lucy Shepherd, a local resident and one of the organisers of the upcoming meeting told News Of The Area. “It’s up to members of the public to come forward and voice their concerns,” she said. “That’s what this meeting is about; to get the public informed and enlist support. “Cashed up buyers from other regions, like Coffs Harbour and Bellingen, where the Council is making it harder to farm blueberries, are making their way into the Valley where land is cheaper and the Council rules on intensive agriculture are less restrictive,” Ms Shepherd said. Rachel Mackenzie from Berries Australia told News of the Area, “There is a perception that blueberry farming is unsustainable, but it is a legitimate agricultural enterprise. “We don’t support any

growers not complying with the rules. “Blueberry farming contributes around $400 million per year to the local economy in the Coffs region and employs many seasonal and non-seasonal workers bringing benefits to the local economy,” she emphasised. Recently in the Coffs Harbour region a community action group managed to draw attention to water quality in Hearnes Lake where high levels of dangerous chemicals were discovered and blueberry farms were implicated. An EPA spokesperson was not available for comment. However, according to information supplied to News Of The Area, between 2021 and 2023, the EPA inspected 40 horticulture operations in the Woolgoolga area. This led to 21 investigations resulting in operators being issued a total of fifteen penalty notices, seven official cautions, eight formal warnings and fourteen advisory letters for a range of water pollution and pesticide offences. “As a result of this the majority of these farms have now installed wastewater

capture and irrigation systems, upgraded or installed new pesticides storage enclosures, and engaged in better waste management practices on farm,” Rachel Mackenzie said. One other consequence of the actions of community groups in the Coffs region has been the tightening of regulations on blueberry farmers by the City of Coffs Harbour (Council) and a

Help support farmers affected by bushfires NSW FARMERS has activated its natural disaster fund to accept cash donations to support farmers in Northern NSW affected by the recent bushfires. This Bushfire Appeal has been established under the NSW Farmers Natural Disaster Relief Fund, a registered charity that supports farmers in NSW affected by bushfires and floods. NSW Farmers CEO Annabel Johnson said recent bushfires in NSW had severely impacted communities already battling drought-like conditions, with pasture burnt and expensive repair bills on the way. “These fires have had a terrible impact on communities who faced the ferocity of Black Summer just four years ago,” Ms Johnson said. To find out more and to make a donation head to www.nswfarmers.org.au/ndrf.

Farmers affected by the bushfires can report stock losses and infrastructure damage, and request animal assessment or emergency fodder or water for stock, by calling the Agricultural and Animal Services Hotline on 1800 814 647. People without phone access can send a direct message via the NSW DPI Facebook page.

answered. Mr Walsh hopes the report will be ready for Council’s next meeting. The community meeting is open to all and plans to discuss issues pertinent to intensive agriculture in the area, such as pesticide and fertiliser run-off, water consumption and land usage. It will be held at the Macksville Ex-Services Club at 6pm on 22 November 2023.

Premier and Ministers visit Coffs Harbour FROM Page 1

Dr Roff said it has dramatically increased the efficiency of locating koalas. He and his team have developed a drone-pilot training program and 45 ecologists are now qualified to use the technology. Artificial intelligence engineers have also helped train the drones to distinguish between the heat signal of a koala and ground species such as wombats. The Premier and Ministers faced the media to announce the establishment of panels - representing the views of industry, the community and Aboriginal groups - that will give feedback on the process of assessing land for inclusion in the national park as well as information on economic, social, ecological and cultural matters. “The Industry, Community and Aboriginal Advisory Panels will ensure we consult with all stakeholders, to create a park that will both protect our native animals and create job, tourism and other economic opportunities on the Mid North Coast of NSW,” Premier Minns said.

Minister Moriarty said the NSW Government was working hard “to deliver our commitment to establish the Great Koala National Park and a sustainable timber industry for mid and northern NSW”. Minister Sharpe discussed the importance of protecting koalas and acknowledged the work of National Parks and Wildlife Service staff in caring for native animals. The Government has classified ‘koala hubs’ as areas where there is strong evidence of multigenerational, high-density populations and says they account for 42 percent of recorded koala sightings in state forests in the assessment area since 2000. It said timber harvesting operations have stopped in 106 koala hubs within the areas being assessed for inclusion in the park. Minister Sharpe said consultation is planned to take about twelve months involving an economic assessment, that includes carbon, and that scientific and cultural considerations are also essential when creating a national park. “We’ve been waiting a very long time to even

consider a koala national park and we want to do it right,” Sharpe said, reaffirming that determining factors include existing timber contracts and protecting jobs. “If I could do it tomorrow I would,” Minister Sharpe said.

Festival calls for end to native logging By Andrew VIVIAN

DESPITE thunderstorms, hundreds of people crammed into a giant marquee in Nambucca Heads for the Maagunda Muruygu Festival for Forests on Saturday, November 4. Attendees came to celebrate forests and call for an end to native forest logging in NSW. One of the organisers, City of Coffs Harbour councillor Jonathan Cassell, crowdfunded nearly $10,000 to cover the costs of the festival. “I’m doing this because people want to see our forests protected

and I’m using free events like this to keep the community informed,” he said. Mr Cassell said the idea began with an invitation from Gumbaynggirr Elder Uncle Micklo Jarrett to hold an event on Gumbaynggirr land. He said entertainers came from Byron, the Central Coast and Sydney, along with emerging Coffs Coast band Blind Pretty, and the organisers only had to cover their costs. Well-known environmentalist and former politician Bob Brown received a huge ovation when he q Former politician and environmentalist Bob Brown addresses the crowd. Photo: Chris Hewgill.

said he would return to the upper Kalang River if logging proceeds there in the coming months. Dr Brown told the crowd, “Don’t get depressed, get active!”, urging them to peacefully protest in defence of the forests, koalas, greater gliders and the myriad of birds to be found. “We are charged with saving what’s left of the wild forests for future generations as well as other species that have a right to exist on this planet,” he said. Dr Brown condemned the State Government for committing to

a Great Koala National Park before this year’s election but allowing logging to continue in the proposed park precinct. He said that while Premier Chris Minns had been in Coffs Harbour the day before the festival to announce consultations, forests were still being logged despite 80 percent of Labor voters wanting it halted. Uncle Micklo Jarrett welcomed the throng to Gumbaynggirr country and then entertained the crowd with songs celebrating the forests in the Gumbaynggirr language. Greens MLA Sue Higginson assured the crowd that native forest logging will be halted but the timing depended on the rising public campaign.

q Hundreds braved the rain to celebrate forests. Photo: Chris Hewgill.

She said that logging of the public forests in NSW had been subsidised by more than $20 million of taxpayers’ money in the last two years. Jenny Weber, of the Bob Brown Foundation, which organised the festival, said, “Bob Brown and I visited the stunning Upper Kalang forests yesterday with ecologist Mark Graham. “It is a global shame that logging roads are still being built into koala habitat and the proposed logging should be permanently banned. “Rallying with the people who want protection for the mid-north coast NSW native forests will keep happening until native forest logging is ended.”

MANY locals and visitors celebrated the traditional Aussie day of the Melbourne Cup by dressing in their finest, including fascinators and selfdecorated hats, to have lunch and entertainment in Macksville and Nambucca Heads hotels. Guests at the Macksville Ex-Services Club enjoyed live music, prizes for best dressed, cup sweeps, raffles, lunch specials and champagne. Some guests had come from as far away as Sydney and others had been friends for many years, the Melbourne Cup being a yearly opportunity to gather again. One group of three women - Margaret, Ros and Irene told News Of The Area of their volunteer work together with the Nambucca Valley Cancer Support Group where they are fundraisers and supply all types of products to locals in need suffering from cancer. Over at the Macksville Hotel a fashion parade raised money for Shore Track and guests gathered to celebrate the day in style. Among them were the team from Nambucca Valley Property, as well as other corporate and friendship groups.

Sports program recognised as best in the nation By Mick BIRTLES

NAMBUCCA Valley Radio 105.9 FM (2NVR) has been honoured with the coveted Troy Garner Award for Excellence in Sports Programming by the Community Broadcasting Association of Australia (CBAA). This national award recognises the exceptional sports programming presented by That's a Wrap, a popular show on the station. That's a Wrap airs every Sunday from 2:00 pm to 5:00 pm and offers a diverse blend of local, national, and international sports content. The program features weekly interviews with local sporting figures and, during the winter months, live broadcasts of Group 2 rugby league games. The show is brought to life by a dedicated team of Donna Collins, Les McMahon, Nigel Wilbow, and Gary Biden. "We are thrilled to win this award as 'That's a Wrap' fulfils a dream for our team,” Donna Collins told News Of The Area. “We are all passionate about sports and have the privilege of discussing sports every week,

including interviewing some of the biggest names in the field." While the team had been nominated for the award in the past, this year marks their first win. The award ceremony took place in Adelaide on 4 November where Nambucca Valley Radio was proudly represented by 2NVR personality Ceri Wrobel. This year, Nambucca Valley Radio 105.9 FM (2NVR) made a mark in multiple categories. Besides the Troy Garner Award for Excellence in Sports Programming, they were finalists in the Best Special Event Category for their broadcast of the station’s 30th Birthday Bash, which went live to air from the Bowraville Theatre last year. Additionally, 2NVR was also a finalist in the Outstanding Small Station Award, a title they have previously secured. Nambucca Valley Radio's latest accolade underscores their commitment to delivering exceptional sports programming and maintaining a strong presence in the community broadcasting landscape.

Koala Park advocates devastated by Minister pulling out of meeting By Andrew VIVIAN

ENVIRONMENT advocates from the Coffs Coast and beyond were left disappointed and angry last week

when Environment Minister Penny Sharpe cancelled a meeting with them at the last minute. Key stakeholders of and voluntary advocates for the Great

Koala National Park (GKNP) had been invited to an afternoon meeting, on Friday November 3, with the Minister, while she was visiting Coffs Harbour.

About 20 people accepted the invitation and attended the Coffs Harbour Community Village, ready to begin the meeting at the scheduled time of 4:30pm.

Upon arrival they were told that Ms Sharpe would not be attending because a group of people, including Knitting Nannas with protest signs, and media, was waiting at the entrance to the Community Village. Some attendees had driven from as far as an hour and a half (each way) to engage with the Minister because of their concern for native animals and their habitats. They were bitterly disappointed and mystified at Ms Sharpe’s nonattendance at a meeting that they understood was organised on her behalf. Ms Sharpe’s office declined to comment on the meeting cancellation, but attendees were contacted on Saturday by the Minister’s office with the offer of a Zoom meeting on Tuesday evening. While a number stated that this was not ideal, most accepted. A participant told News Of The Area, “The meeting was very respectful and everyone at the meeting was looking forward to finding solutions.” The participant said the Minister was responsive to an invitation to visit some of the logging sites, and, while there was no promise of immediate action and there were concerns over logging continuing, the feeling in the meeting was generally positive.

Byron Jonny walks for Cancer Council By Andrea FERRARI

FROM the beaches of his hometown of Byron to the Nambucca Valley coastline, Jonathan Woods is making his way to Sydney on a 900 kilometre (km) trek fuelled by a mission to raise $5,000 for the Cancer Council. He’s chosen a coastal route and is traversing beaches he describes as “undiscovered gems”. News Of The Area chatted with Jonathan as he passed through Nambucca Heads on his way south to Sydney. On a high having raised just over $2,500, he’s hopeful of reaching his target and is loving the joys of the journey the trek is providing as he navigates the changeable weather. “The rain has been lovely and cool to walk in but has been problematic for sleeping. “Fortunately, people have been very kind and helped by giving me a dry place to sleep and a place to dry out my swag and mattress. “I’m making pretty good progress and am on schedule to reach Sydney on time. “The fundraising has been steady but has slowed a little in the past couple of days.”

It is all a journey of discovery for the 60-year-old Byron Shire Council staff member as he steps out solo every day on to another seaside or headland hike. “Our family has been impacted by cancer; family members and friends,” he said. “I like that Cancer Council keeps it local and has a broadbrush approach across all forms of cancer and funds can be distributed where the greatest needs are.” Jonathan is tackling the kilometres in an unusual style that allows him total independence. “For each leg I drive to where I want to end up that day, walk back to a starting point around ten km back and then retrace my steps to the car. “That way I only need to carry the food and drinks to sustain my walk, and my overnight camping gear can stay in the car,” he said. Along with five litres of water, protein bars, fruit and vegetables and sunscreen he carries a small inflatable raft in case he hits a creek at high ride and needs to paddle over, but the tent and his kit are car-bound until it’s time to rest for the night. So far his day walks have been uneventful, but continually provide

a connection with nature in all its beauty from dawn ‘til dusk. However, dumped plastic abounds along some stretches of the coast. “I pick up plastic along the way – there’s lots washed up onto the beaches and in creeks, and I add it to the piles I have found which have been created by others for the local councils to pick up.” He is enjoying the journey,

focusing on the beautiful sights he sees every day and is looking forward to finishing his journey on Tuesday 5 December when he plans to reach Sydney, where he will celebrate with family and friends. With around one in two Australians diagnosed with cancer in their lifetime, Jonathan is asking the local community to support his Big Walk to Sydney.

Boating season begins with record number of rescue missions q The nine Mid North Coast units made 27 search and rescue missions in October.

MARINE Rescue NSW volunteers across the state were involved in a record 386 search and rescue missions in October, making it the Service’s busiest ever start to a boating season, which runs from 1 October to 25 April. The previous busiest October for Marine Rescue NSW was in 2020 when crews completed 376 missions. The nine Mid North Coast units made 27 search and rescue missions in October. Marine Rescue NSW Commissioner Alex Barrell said just over a quarter of responses last month were for emergency situations. “During October, our volunteers responded to 101 emergencies including seven

THERE is something satisfying about listening to your favourite band or artist and smugly saying to friends, “I saw these guys play when they were just starting out.” On Friday 17 November you will have a chance to catch a local band that is clearly going places when Blind Pretty play live and free at the Tewinga Studios of Nambucca Valley Radio, 2NVR. The Mid North Coast’s indie/ alternative rock outfit Blind Pretty will be performing live to air and in front of a studio audience as a part of 2NVR’s Studio 3 Live Series.

Toormina. Launching onto the live music scene with a critically acclaimed performance at this year's Macksville Laneway Festival, the uber talented crew have been turning heads with tracks such as Hold me Down and Getting Better showing that they are just as at home in the studio as they are on the stage. Their sound is in the ballpark of Spacey Jane, Steve Lacy or Sam Fender but for older music lovers, think of a mellower and somehow tighter version of The Cars. “Nambucca Valley Radio invites you to be part of their live audience when they present Blind Pretty live and free,” a 2NVR spokesperson said. The performance is open to the public free of charge at the Tewinga Studios of 2NVR and will begin at 6:00pm on Friday 17 November 2023 and will go through until 8:00pm. 2NVR also invites you to bring along your own drinks and nibbles to the event. Should you be unable to come along, the performance will be broadcast live on 105.9FM and streamed via www.2nvr.org.au

MAYDAY calls, almost a dozen medical emergencies, capsized vessels and search and rescue missions for missing people,” Commissioner Barrell said. 57 percent of calls for assistance received by Marine Rescue NSW volunteers in October were for mechanical or fuel issues. “We are pleading with boaters to make sure that their vessel is in good working order before heading out, please carry enough fuel with some in reserve and make sure everyone on board is wearing a lifejacket,” Commissioner Barrell said. 818 people were safely returned to shore by Marine Rescue NSW volunteers across the state last month. Marine Rescue NSW volunteers managed 16,074 radio calls through local unit bases.

School community comes together for Spring Fair

Colourful undercover fun.

By Jen HETHERINGTON EVEN with the threat of wild spring weather, the Scotts Head Public School (SHPS) Spring Fair, held on the Friday evening of 27 October, was a resounding success. Many dozens of families and visitors came along to enjoy a variety of well-planned fundraising activities which were facilitated by a purchased token system. Activities included face painting, balloon twisting, fairy floss, treasure jar stall, plant and succulent stall, book stall, rock wall slide, jumping castle and giant bubble blowing on the field in between rain squalls. Under cover, a variety of food was on offer, with the stalwart Rural Fire Service BBQ, and the always delightful Indonesian cuisine that the school is famous for, as well as live entertainment to accompany the casual meal. Yarrahapinni CWA was also in attendance offering lots of baked goods, and all the profits were donated back to the school.

“A giant thanks to the wonderful integrated whole school drumming percussion and dancing performance for the grand finale, and all the mouthwatering food options made and served with love by our students, staff and parent/community helpers,” SHPS Principal Annie Balfour was thrilled to report. The weather didn't stop all the planned action from going ahead which made for a feast for all the senses.

AFTER experiencing devastating floods over the past few years, Macksville Country Club was successful in applying for grant funding for remediation and improvements to the golf course to offset future flood events. “The golf course was flood affected for most of 2021/2022 with play impacted on these holes for this amount of time,” said Desma Hughes, Director, Macksville Country Club. “There have been times where play has not been able to occur and other times play has been hampered by poor quality landings, making it difficult to hit off and continue play.” Macksville Country Club were successful in applying for funding

through the NSW Department of Sport’s Essential Community Sports Assets Program, securing $273,000 to lift flood affected tees and greens. “The works includes drainage to assist in future weather events to provide additional assistance to enable play to occur as soon as possible after these times,” Desma said. “Drainage works will also assist in reducing the amount of chemical and sprays required on course to deter mould and weeds that like moist conditions for growing.” The works have now been concluded, with assistance from ShoreTrack, a charity based in Macksville supporting disengaged

and vulnerable young people. “Macksville Country Club welcomed the assistance of ShoreTrack young people who provided assistance in laying turf on the site of the new works alongside the earthworks construction company who were successful in tendering to undertake the job. “These works will assist the club’s long term strategy in increasing participation rates especially in times of adverse events and provide social inclusion opportunities for community and guests.” With work now complete, the improvements will be opened at 9am on 17 November 2023.

DEAR Jasminda,

Traps concerning commercial leases JOHN operates an earthmoving business. He enters-into a lease of an industrial warehouse to store the earthmoving equipment. Several years pass and when John wishes to relocate, a dispute arises with the landlord. The landlord claims that John had not complied with the “permitted use” of the premises, that he had breached the “make good” provisions of the lease and that the landlord had suffered damages due to the consequential delay in reletting the premises. The landlord claims that the concrete slab needed to be replaced and the total damages claimed exceeds $500,000. Although the lease permitted John to store some earthmoving equipment on the premises, the landlord claimed that this did not include some of the particularly heavy machinery that was kept on the premises. The landlord claims that as a result of the heavy machinery, John’s use of the premises required repairs that did not arise from “fair wear and tear”. The landlord therefore claims that it was John’s responsibility to replace large sections of the concrete slab. In Supreme Court proceedings, the Judge rules that John’s use of the premises was in fact a “permitted use” and accordingly, the condition of the premises at the end of the lease, was in fact in good repair given the condition of the premises at the commencement of the lease, subject to “fair wear and tear”. The Judge also states that the landlord had not taken reasonable steps to “mitigate damages” by not promptly rectifying the concrete slab nor accepting offers from prospective tenants to lease the premises. This case demonstrates the importance of clearly defining “permitted use” clauses when entering-into a lease, the value of carefully considering clauses relating to damage caused by permitted use and the significance of the proper drafting of “make good clauses” which identify the difference between the tenant’s particular use of the premises and general wear and tear.

Climate scientists raise alarm over ocean warming A NEW report by the Climate Council on ocean warming has been released, warning that Australian ocean’s are in crisis as “extreme heat punishes marine life and raises the spectre of irreversible changes with profound consequences for all life on our planet”. The Climate Council’s Code Blue: Oceans in Crisis report reveals the immense amount of climate-change induced heat currently being absorbed by the world’s oceans is equivalent to boiling the Sydney Harbour every eight minutes. Key findings include that the rate of ocean warming has more than doubled since the mid 1990s and that global sea levels have risen 20cm since the start of the 20th century, with the rate of rise accelerating. In addition, the Climate Council ran a highly targeted survey of 30 leading ocean scientists across five continents. All (100 percent) were ‘extremely’ or ‘very’ concerned about climate-driven changes to the world’s oceans. Half (53 percent) said these changes were outpacing scientific predictions. Overwhelmingly, these scientists agreed ‘rapidly phasing out fossil fuels’ is the single most important action governments could take to address ocean warming. Report author and the Climate Council’s Research Director Dr Simon Bradshaw said, “The science can’t be any clearer: our oceans are in deep trouble. “Today the ocean is absorbing excess heat energy that’s equivalent to five Hiroshima bomb explosions every second, or enough to boil Sydney Harbour

Now every meal is a discussion about proteins and calories and frankly the conversation has become as bland as the meal variations. Julie W. Dear Julie, It makes sense that your husband has become far more attuned to the family's eating habits. He is no doubt following his doctor's orders. There is, however, a serious impediment to witty and fruitful dinner conversation when the hot topics are gut health, functional health analysis and tomorrow's smoothie bowl. Most of us are obsessed about the impact on our iconic Great Barrier Reef, the scientific community is also extremely concerned about the Great Southern Reef. “With forecasts of unprecedented and 'off the charts' marine heat this summer, these critical marine ecosystems face risk of utter devastation. “We’re observing the transformation of the oceans in real time, as marine species move to survive. In Australia, at least 200 marine species have shifted since 2003, with the vast majority headed south. “As waters warm further south, many will have nowhere left to go. “While climate change has already caused extensive change to our oceans - and we’ll continue to see devastating impacts for decades - stronger action by governments to reign in fossil fuels right now can limit future harms and ensure more species and ecosystems are given a fighting chance. “Scientists agree: the single most important action we can take now is to leave fossil fuels in the

The Code Blue report also raises concerns for the future of surfing, claiming sea level rise and changing wind and swell patterns threaten to undermine treasured surf spots around the country, disrupting one of Australia’s most iconic pastimes. Pro-surfer Adrian ‘Ace’ Buchan, Surfing Australia Deputy Chairman, has joined the Climate Council’s call to declare a Code Blue emergency, adding, “Surfers have a deep and spiritual connection to the ocean and we are deeply concerned about the devastating impact the climate crisis is having on our big blue playground. “Erosion is threatening our most iconic surfing spots. “Our water is being polluted from flood runoff and dangerous jellyfish moving south. Loss of coral reefs and impacts on sandbars, is not just altering where and how waves break, but is also having devastating impacts on marine life.

NVG Group calls for stories NEXT year, NVC Group will be celebrating 50 years of care in the local area and are calling for story and photograph submissions from the community. “As part of our celebrations, we are looking for stories and photos – whether you were involved in fundraising fetes and selling raffle tickets for Autumn Lodge or the Riverside Gardens and Autumn Lodge auxiliaries, are past or present NVC staff, residents at our aged care facilities or students who have studied at our college… we’d love to hear from you,” said Janine Reed, NVC Group Chairman. As the organisation begins preparations for the 50th anniversary celebrations, a range of interesting historical newspaper clippings have been unearthed from the archives. “For example, one year a couple of elephants from a circus were shown at the Macksville Showground to raise funds for our notfor-profit community organisation,” NVC Group Communication Officer Jacqueline Mohr said. “There have been countless students graduate from our colleges, girl guides and scouts singing Christmas

carols, diamond wedding anniversaries and even christenings at our aged care facilities. “It would be lovely to see some more photos and display them as part of the celebrations. “Another interesting thing from looking at old newspaper articles is we’ve discovered Autumn Lodge's official opening happened this week, in November, 1978.” At the opening, the then President of the Nambucca Shire Council, Cr George Hicks said, "Autumn Lodge has been the most comprehensive project ever undertaken in the shire. “Almost everyone in the community, through service clubs and other organisations or as individuals has been involved in this project." Mrs Reed said she would love to see the community get involved in celebrating this milestone. “NVC Group has been built from the kindness and generosity of our community and volunteers who have worked alongside our dedicated staff for generations.” It was a group of dedicated community members who saw that an aged care facility was

needed in our community. In the early 1970s, if you were in need of age care services in the Nambucca Valley, you would have been forced to leave the area. Dedicated to the cause, the community members worked diligently and tirelessly, leaving an amazing legacy. From a mere 32 hostel rooms, this local charity has grown and now provides quality homes and home care for hundreds of our elderly. This group formed a committee and started

fundraising. From this, Autumn Lodge Nursing Home was created in 1974 and has now grown and evolved into NVC Group. NVC is still a not-for-profit, with a committed voluntary Board. Over the years, all profits earnt have been invested back into the organisation to care for our community and to expand and maintain the facilities. “Our first Community Committee is this week. “We’ve got volunteers

who contacted us recently. “We hope that by expanding our coverage to include new areas and environments we can improve the diversity of species we find as well as increase our participant numbers for the event,” he said. Over four full days, from Friday 24 November until Monday 27 November, the idea is to find, photograph and upload sightings of plants and wildlife from the local area using the iNaturalist app. Organiser Nick, a schoolteacher and life-long local resident of the Coffs Harbour district, said, “I have a fair amount of experience using the iNaturalist platform and hope to encourage other locals to engage with their natural environments and take a closer look at what is around them, sometimes literally in their backyards.” It's easy to join in, says Nick. “All you need to do to be involved is create a free

iNaturalist account via the website or the app. “You then take photos of any living things during the event and upload them to the platform.” This can be done using the app on a phone which automatically adds the time and place of the sighting, or you can use cameras and upload photos via the website. “The app/website has software in place that even makes suggestions about what you've seen when you upload, to help you make an initial ID,” said Nick. Once uploaded, your sighting can be viewed by the iNaturalist community, made up of amateur naturalists and experts alike, both local and international. The community will help to identify what you have seen. Questions and learning are encouraged. “We are lucky to live in a highly biodiverse area of Australia with a huge range of different environments to

explore,” Nick said. “Sub-tropical and temperate rainforests, coral reef, sandy and rocky shorelines, saltmarsh and estuaries, wet and dry forest, heathland and many more variations of all of these. “It's a great opportunity for families with kids or people of any age really, that have a particular or general interest in our local wildlife, to get outside and explore, enjoy and learn.” Last year the Coffs region came fifth for the overall number of species sighted and sixth for the number

of observations uploaded out of the 216 participating regions across the Southern hemisphere. “Not bad,” said Nick. “We are hoping to increase the participant numbers this year.” To find out more and sign up, visit www.facebook.com/ coffsbioblitz To participate go to the iNaturalist homepage and create an account, which is free.

Cricket season affected by rain again By Aiden BURGESS JUST one week after the first washed out matches of the season, Coffs Harbour District Cricket Association’s first grade competition has been plagued by rain again. Wet weather affected the competition again with two Round 4 matches abandoned. Sawtell managed to have a victory before the downpour, beating the Nana Glen Lizards by three wickets at

In Saturday's stroke event sponsored by Steve Riddell's Callisto Computing the Medal was won by Ross Donnelly and the Spoon (best gross score) by Allan Clarke.

WELL, we got what we wished for – rain! Thankfully, we completed the week’s events without drama, but Sunday’s Mixed event was a washout – a small price to pay, I guess! Just watch the grass grow from now on! This week’s featured sponsor was “Infill House & Land” – thank you. Tuesday’s “Island Challenge” Medley Stroke continues to grow in popularity, with over 50 players competing for great prizes on offer thanks to the event sponsor, Toyota Genuine Service. Stephen Rix (18) from Horizons and Rick Heywood (11) both had 65 net, Stephen winning the c/b. Stephen Carr was best Gross 72. The best Lady player was Denise Paluch (17) net 71.

“We are trying to connect with disadvantaged youth in our community, giving them a strong foundation by guiding, mentoring and supporting them. “Giving back to the community and ensuring the next generation of young women have opportunities to lead a positive, happy and healthy lifestyle is so important to me. “The idea for the club was born in my lounge room at home, and I couldn’t be prouder of the way it has evolved over the past year.” Kinkii Netball player Tamryn Donovan said her time with the team has been positive. “My favourite experience with Kinkii Netball so far is definitely staying as a group in Newcastle and competing against other Indigenous teams from all over NSW,” Tamryn said. “It has been really good to see all the talent that Indigenous kids have. “Being able to all play together is something that

I haven’t experienced in Saturday netball. “My coaches have taught me a lot about netball through training and drills. “They really inspire me, especially watching them out on court.” Greater Bank Mid North Coast Regional Sales Manager, Jennifer Smith, said community sport has many benefits. “Netball is great fun so it’s wonderful to see young girls being given the chance to get involved in local sport,” Jennifer said. “Netball helps build on important qualities to carry through life such as problem-solving skills, the ability to work well within a team as well as wonderful social benefits.” Mikaela said the Greater Bank’s Mid North Coast Community Funding will go towards supporting players and their families. “We are extremely grateful to Greater Bank for this funding which will go

towards accommodation for our players at the NSW Koori Netball knockouts next year,” Mikaela said. “In the future we would like

to develop a scholarship program for one or two Indigenous players each year to give back to our community and ensure

registration is accessible. “This really is just the beginning for Kinkii Netball.”

Kinkii Netball building a community on the courts FROM Page 24 Coffs Harbour and Kempsey, Kinkii Netball is striving to ensure young women of the area are given opportunities that may otherwise be out of reach due to location or cultural biases. Founded in 2022 in memory of local father, uncle and friend, Robert ‘Massy’ Smith, Kinkii Netball hit the ground running, quickly filling their first team within an hour, and they achieved great success at the team’s first carnival. The club has continued to gain in popularity, with four teams signed on to play this season. Co-founder of Kinkii Netball, Mikaela Donovan, said it has been a pleasure to see the club grow. “Our club is proudly made up of approximately 80 percent local Indigenous girls and women, and we have become so much more than just a club, we are now a community,” Mikaela said.

PET OF THE MONTH

Following the March 2021, February 2022 and June 2022 severe storms and flooding, the Nambucca Valley Local Government Area (LGA) received Natural Disaster Declarations resulting in the State and Commonwealth providing funding support to help with the cost of cleaning up and restoring damaged road and essential public assets.

www.nambucca.nsw.gov.au

The majority of Council’s road network has been impacted to some extent, which has resulted in an unprecedented amount of repairs to undertake. Council is aware there are numerous potholes, corrugations and gravel loss on some roads.

Proudly brought to you by News Of The Area and Nambucca Valley Council

• Council has recorded 67 significant landslip events that will require remediation through the LGA, with an estimated repair cost in the order of $40million and further information is available on landslip damages via an interactive map located on Council’s website by following the Disaster Recovery link. • Since the March 2021 flooding, the damage bill to date has been in excess of $4.4million predominately directed toward our emergency relief works on the road network. These works are still on-going.

Sprocket:

Council’s flood recovery program is a multi-faceted process involving the co-ordination of a number of specialised consultants, contractors, scarce materials and receiving funding approval. Council has its own teams and contractors engaged to undertake repairs to urban and rural sealed road network as well as the unsealed road network prioritising high speed roads, higher use roads and bus routes. Should you know of a road that is in poor or unsafe condition please call Council on (02) 6568 2555 and report it.

BEACH HOUSE HUNTERS

NBN, 7.30pm

Host Shelley Craft (pictured) is a stalwart from The Block, but thankfully this series isn’t awash with multimilliondollar priced homes. This easygoing series – boosted by Shelley’s sunny personality – is about the simple goal of ﬁnding beach abode. Bereft of product placement and featuring a mix of homehunters with diverse budgets, it’s an entertaining slice of Australia’s diverse coastal housing stock. Tonight, picturesque Yamba on NSW’s North Coast is the ﬁrst destination, followed by the holiday hotspot of North Stradbroke Island.

He’s the consummate action hero: a muscled, street savvy lieutenant of the Los Angeles’ special weapons and a tactics team with a thirst for dangerous situations and a drive to help those in need. Shemar Moore (pictured, Criminal Minds) is the brawn and soul of this crime procedural as Daniel “Hondo” Harrelson. So when the series was abruptly cancelled after season six and Moore called the decision a “mistake”, it’s understandable TV execs revoked their call… No one messes with Hondo. In tonight’s double episode, a home invasion aﬀects a famous gridiron player. Later, the team races to prevent a hostage situation from escalating on live TV. It’s reliably adrenaline-soaked popcorn fare.

ARIA AWARDS

NBN, 7.30pm

Whether you’re a loyal music fan or could quietly beneﬁt from a brush-up on who’s making waves in the exciting realm of Australian music, tonight is the night to settle in for the spectacle of the ARIA Awards. Music journalist Brooke Boney and comedian Tommy Little (both pictured) host this annual musical extravaganza, which shines a light on the year’s most popular artists and songs. Prepare to boogie and belt out a tune from the couch; the guests’ creative, fashionforward outﬁts promise to strike a chord, too. Live from Sydney’s Hordern Pavilion, the nominees for Best Solo Artist include Budjerah, Dan Sultan, G Flip, Jen Cloher, Kylie Minogue and Meg Mac. 1011
