Learn from our history By JOHN RYAN DUBBO photographer Merv Bishop took one of the nation’s unforgettable images when he snapped prime minister Gough Whitlam pouring sand from his hand into the hand of Vincent Lingiari. The photograph was captured nine years after Lingiari led more than 200 Aboriginal stockmen and their families in a walk-off from Wave Hill Station in protest against their British masters. Now there’s a new Dubbo connection to Wave Hill and its history 50 years on, with three Dubbo men – all Indigenous – following in the footsteps of that trek.

COUNCIL WATCH By YVETTE AUBUSSON-FOLEY A PROPOSED 62 per cent rise to the NSW Electoral Commission’s fee to run Dubbo’s local government election next year has the hallmarks of something the cat dragged in. Dubbo Regional Council (DRC) Mayor Ben Shields, who is also a Local Government NSW Regional/Rural board director, agrees the recommendation being made by the Independent Pricing and Regulatory Tribunal (IPART) is all ‘a bit yuck’. “I am firmly opposed to any increase in the cost of holding Council elections and

that is why, as a member of LG NSW board, we have lobbied against the proposal.” Cr Shields quoted from the Terms of Reference for the IPART review which said in part, “The purpose of IPART’s review is to ensure a robust methodology for determining costs is applied, in order to minimise the financial burden on councils and ratepayers and ensure local government elections are conducted efficiently and cost effectively.” But, he added, “Despite this, the review has proposed a system that doesn’t meet requirements of the terms of reference because it would result in higher costs for councils and ratepayers.”

August 8-14, 2019 Dubbo Photo News FROM THE EDITOR
What’s new in your local paper YOU’LL see some changes and improvements to Dubbo Photo News today. Our Weekender section becomes “News Extra”, still bringing you the longer and more detailed stories that are too rarely seen in regional media in 2019. This week, for example, we have extended coverage of the life-changing journey by three Dubbo men to Wave Hill Station in the NT, where Vincent Lingiari led a mass walk-off and protest in the 1960s. “7 Days” has changed. We originally started this page nine years ago in Weekender as a wrap-up and analysis of the week’s news, however this whole paper has been doing that more and more in recent years, so the need for a dedicated page has decreased. Also, because writer John Ryan is also a serving councillor and so needs to be careful to avoid any conflict between that and his role as our journalist, the ‘7 Days’ page hasn’t been able to fully cover ALL the local stories of the week. John will continue to write a weekly opinion column. Council Watch will more and more be merged into the early news section of Dubbo Photo News from this week. Our cover story, for example, is part of this week’s Council coverage. I’m proud of this locally-owned, independent newspaper. We’re always looking at ways to improve what we do to best serve our readers. – Tim Pankhurst, Editor.
NARROMINE
Is time up for historical museum? By YVETTE AUBUSSON-FOLEY AN invaluable snapshot of Narromine’s past is in doubt as Narromine Historical Museum caretakers Joy Gillespie and Ruth Carney admit they need more volunteers to help keep the facility running. Housed in the town’s historic 1898 court house and leased from Narromine Council, most items have been donated by local families and their stories extensively researched and recorded by Narromine historian, Norma Meadley. For example, Narromine townspeople donated the highest amount of money in Australia per size per capita towards the World War I effort and were recognised by the Government who awarded pennants to the town which are housed in the museum. Aboriginal artefacts make up a significant part of the collection and tell meaningful stories of Narromine’s Aboriginal history preand post-settlement. Long-time Central Australian desert resident Kerz Lake happened to be passing through Narromine recently. “I was coming through from the desert and found the stuff that’s in here has huge cultural significance. It’s amazing, particularly for a little town like this and it’s on the highway so it’s the perfect spot. It’s got so much potential and worth. To find out it might not continue is terrible,” Ms Lake said. The museum perfectly aligns
with Narromine Council’s vision of a town which provides opportunities for all its members and values the diversity of people, ideas, perspectives and experiences. The building however does not have a toilet which is inadequate for elderly visitors and air conditioning was only installed after Orana Arts procured a grant for the museum to purchase a system. Both Joy Gillespie and Ruth Carney are still shaken by a June 30 break-in which caused extensive damage to the historic front doors. “We’re elderly and we don’t have the manpower. Our husbands are elderly too. If we want something moved or done, we’ve got no-one to come in and do that sort of thing and we can’t rely on Council,” Mrs Gillespie said. “Joy and I opened this up in 2012 and we’ve had a great time, but we have really run our course. If no-one steps in... look at this stuff... what are we going to do with it?” Mrs Carney questioned. “We’re hoping that we can see the museum keep going. We started off with about 22 volunteers and gradually that’s fallen off and now it’s down to two people all the time,” Mrs Gillespie said. z You can help the Narromine Historical Museum by volunteering your time, helping to source Narromine Historical Museum volunteers Joy Gillespie and Ruth Carney, with grants, offering your manpower supporter Kerz Lake, are keen to see the museum continue.

Bishop salutes MPs against Abortion Bill
Lyndon Phipps Lyndon recently returned from walking the 1000-kilometre Camino de Santiago through Spain. He explains what inspired him to take on such a big physical and mental challenge. Camino de Santiago is a pilgrimage. I did the Francés which starts in St. Jean Pied de Port which is on the French side of the Pyrenees and you walk all the way across the top of Northern Spain to Santiago de Compostela, and I then did another Camino from Santiago to a place called Morchia which I walked backwards. To prepare, I did lots of reading and trawling the internet to read stories from people who have talked about it and done it before. I watched YouTube videos on how to pack, there’s heaps of information and forums online. I talked to people who have done it, especially for the emotional and spiritual side of the journey. Five years ago, was (my wife Kerrie and my) 20th wedding anniversary and we were staying at a friend’s place and watched a DVD called ‘The Way’. It was my first encounter with the Comino, which means “the way”, and I thought “that would be cool to do one day”, but I didn’t do anything about it. A couple of months later I thought “no I really need to go” to clear my head, find myself and work out who I really am. So, five years later I was in Spain in a really small town in an albergo that wasn’t even listed on the recommended albergos to stay at and there was no Wi-Fi and nobody with English-speaking background. I couldn’t even call my wife. But it was good fun! The walk is officially 731km, but I did all the side trails and I walked all the way through the coast, so with all the extra bits I would have done over 1000km – which took 44 days. The challenges included what to keep and what things to leave behind! I went with my son’s sleeping bag, but that was 1.35kg I did not want to keep carrying. I didn’t really feel like there were any great challenges, but I suppose there were days it was hard going because you couldn’t get accommodation anywhere and you had to keep walking. Getting over the first two days of the pyrenes was hard. I practised walking but nothing in the Warrumbungles or anywhere else in Australia could prepare me for the pyrenes. It was amazingly beautiful (with) incredible views! It was like walking through a fairy tale! I was born in Australia and English is my native tongue. (During the walk) I’d often sit down and have seven or eight people at a table for dinner, and most of them could speak English as their second language, but if they didn’t there was often someone who could translate. There were two nights where English was the
By LYDIA PEDRANA THE decision over whether to decriminalise abortion in NSW may be voted on today after weeks of political, medical and religious debate. This week has seen hours of heated discussions and angry protests inside and outside State Parliament over whether a law, introduced almost 120 years ago, should be amended to classify pregnancy termination as a medical procedure rather than criminal act. The change would bring NSW into line with other states. Among those opposing the amendment is Catholic Diocese of Bathurst Bishop, Michael McKenna, who said he “salutes” the Members of Parliament who are resisting the change. In a statement received by Dubbo Photo News, Bishop McKenna argued that “someone is forgotten”. “That is the human being: unborn, but human, who has no rights when her or his life or death is being decided,” part of the statement read. “Also forgotten are those medical professionals who would conscientiously op-

It was an unusual experience being in that uncomfortable situation where they had to take themselves out of the conversation to translate for me. Being married to Kerrie, life is an adventure, but I just did an adventure on my own and she encouraged me to do that. She’s always out there and she’s a bit of an inspiration. It was time for me to get out and do something. The Camino de Santiago is an experience of a lifetime. If you want to meet the world but you don’t want to travel it,
pose such procedures, from whom the law could withdraw protection.” Pro-choice and pro-life campaigners have clashed in Sydney streets as every politician who wanted a say on the matter was given 30 minutes to convey their argument to the lower house. An amendment to the Bill, which currently defines abortion as a criminal offence with a penalty of up to 10 years’ imprisonment, would legally allow pregnancy terminations up to 22 weeks. Termination later into the pregnancy would also be allowed with permission of two doctors. Health minister Brad Hazzard is one of 15 co-sponsors from across the political spectrum. The Australian Medical Association also backs the amendment, but not everyone is on the same page. Mr Hazzard urged his colleagues to “right a wrong” by supporting abortion decriminalisation in NSW – the only state in Australia where it is still illegal. In 2017, there was an attempt to decriminalise abortion in NSW, but the bill failed in the Upper House.

COMPUTER SAFETY
TRIVIA TEST
Renewed warning: be wary of scams By NATALIE HOLMES WITH computer scams becoming increasingly more convincing and elaborate, Dubbo IT store owner Nasser Sedghi has urged the public to be extra-vigilant in their online activity. Mr Sedghi recently posted this note about the issue: “We urge our customers to take extra care in responding to any phone or email contact in relation to their computers and IT equipment. “If you have any issues with your computers, the most effective and reliable way is to call local computer and IT support for your business and/or home office.” He told Dubbo Photo News that many of his customers had experienced issues in their communications. “Almost every week, we get customers who come in with their computer,” he said. “They get a phone call or email (claiming to be) from Microsoft or Telstra saying they are in IT and that its related to their computer.” This contact is quite often fraudulent, even though the other party is very convincing. “They are extremely expert in luring people into that conversation,” Mr Sedghi said. He explained that these scammers are very good at gauging different types of people and will target anyone who is vulnerable. “They pose in such a way that the listener believes they have a

problem,” he said. “Once the listener is connected, the scammer can use remote access software to navigate the computer system.” Then they are able to seize the system and access important files, often telling the victim that payment is required to fix the computer. If this happens, Mr Sedghi said to report the incident to police and cancel all credit cards.
“The next stage where we give advice to the customer is to check their systems to ensure that the remote access system is blocked, making sure there is no remaining point of connection,” he said. Mr Sedghi said that consumers need to remain very alert to these kinds of scams to avoid “falling into the trap”. “Scammers are getting more expertise and sophisticated, it’s
very hard. Unfortunately, there are lots and lots of pitfalls. “My advice is not to take strange phone calls or emails, if it appears strange, delete it, don’t open it. Carefully note who they are from and what they are for. “There will be some point in the communication where it smells – discontinue, get professional advice and regular IT checks.”

COUNCIL WATCH
Ratepayers to pay for local elections Continued from page 1
DRC Councillor David Grant agrees it’s ratepayers who will feel the brunt of this decision, if passed. “Ultimately the money has to come from somewhere and once again it will be ratepayers’ money going to funding this. I am unsure whether the community will get their say, but as community representatives we need to ensure we speak up,” Cr Grant said. A fee hike will also introduce a gap between the cost for city and country voters, meaning small rural councils would pay an average of $14.37 per elector, while large metropolitan councils would only pay $9.54. “As a democratic society we have to have these elections. We are being slugged for a process that we have to do, no ifs or buts. Once again, the regional or country voters/citizens are being hit with exorbitant costs for a process which, once again, we have
to do,” Cr Grant said. Cr Shields views the IPART report as punishment for councils and ratepayers in regional areas. “Everyone has the right to a fair and properly-managed democratic process, and this is another example of cost shifting that will affect regional councils particularly hard if IPART doesn’t change its findings when it presents the final report to the NSW Government at the end of August,” Cr Shields said. There are, however, options including outsourcing our elections. Since 2011, contracting the NSWEC has been optional, which opens up the opportunity for private providers such as TrueVote to administer LGA elections, or alternatively they can also be run in-house. A council can administer their own elections which places the responsibility to guarantee a valid election result squarely in the lap of a general manager, or in Dubbo’s case, the CEO Michael

McMahon. “It is true the council would not need to use the NSW Electoral Commission, but the democratic process is something that has to be taken very seriously and it is critical that an election is delivered without issue,” Cr Shields said. “It will cost Council more money to conduct an election, effec-
Dubbo Riverside Markets cease operations AFTER a 38-year run, the Dubbo Riverside Markets have ceased operation. The decision was announced this week by the President and Committee of the Dubbo Show Society which runs the markets. “Thank you to everyone that supported the markets for the past 38 years. Your support is greatly appreciated,” the state-
ment said. The markets have provided extra funding for the Dubbo Show Society to help stage the Annual Show each year. “The Dubbo Show Society will have a couple of markets later this year. The first one will be with the National Shearing Competition and the second one will be announced very shortly.”
tively costing ratepayers more. In practical terms, it means Council faces higher costs next year to conduct the election, and this has an impact on the overall Council budget. Ultimately it is ratepayers who are impacted.” Cr Shields’ preference is to stay with the NSW Electoral Commission (NSWEC) and hopes if the more expensive model is implemented that the NSW Government would step in and aide councils. “I feel the NSW Electoral Commission has the experience and track record that makes it very difficult to consider a third-party provider. Only a small number of councils have chosen to use anyone else since the regulations were changed to allow it in 2011, and a lot who chose another provider in the 2012 elections returned to the NSWEC in 2016-17.”
Grants open for not-forprofits NOT-FOR-PROFITS are invited to apply for Dubbo Regional Council grants to help grow their organisation’s delivery of services or events. To be successful, applicants must meet criteria based on merit and benefits to the community and be based in Dubbo Regional Council Local Government area or deliver a service or activity in Local Government area. Mayor of the Dubbo Region, Ben Shields, said previous recipients included charitable, health, animal wellbeing, and environmental organisations, as well as special interest groups. Applications close 5pm, Friday, August 30.

COMMUNITY INVOLVED
Many reins, but not enough rain for riding school By LYDIA PEDRANA MIXING her passion for animals with her career in family and community services, Sandra McBride has the best of both worlds when it comes to running Outback Pony Rides, but the long dry conditions out west are taking their toll. Having moved to Dubbo from the Hawkesbury three and half years ago in search of more space and fresh air, Mrs McBride’s family business has thrived. “We get so much really positive feedback from both visitors to Dubbo and locals, so the community have been really supportive,” Mrs McBride told Dubbo Photo News. “And because we are an outdoor recreational facility, we help get kids outdoors and away from computer screens and games and things like that.” But there’s a lot more to Outback Pony Rides than leading a child around on the back of a cute equine. The business hosts children’s birthday parties, runs educational riding programs, has local disability services visit weekly and takes their two therapy horses, Bubba and Beauty, to visit the elderly at nursing homes. “We visit a lot of elderly people who might have come off farms where horses were a big part of their life and they might not have the opportunity to see or pat one again, so we take them inside some of the local nursing homes from time to time and they are absolutely fantastic and really good therapy ponies,” Mrs McBride said. “It’s one of my favourite things to do.” But like many people in the area, the lack of rain has hit Mrs McBride and her pony riding business hard. “The drought is taking its toll on us,” she said. “There is no feed and we are
really struggling gling in that regard to o continue the services vices that we are providing within hin the communinity. Everything ng we are earn-ing is go-ing on feed d and feed iss becoming quite scarce,, so that’s onee of the biggest est challenges.” When the drought does break though, h, Mrs McBride has as big plans for Outback k Pony Rides. As well as updating their facilities, ilities, they hope to offerr additional services. “I’d run a program working with h victims of domestic violence lence around confidence building courses with h the ponies – that’s something mething I’d really love to o do in the future,” Mrss McBride said. “We would ld also really love to add trail riding to the business at some ome stage. We have quite a unique ue property and it’s very scenic and we get asked a lot if we offerr trail rides.” As well ass horses, Outback Pony Rides iss also home to baby farm animalss which the public can pet and feed.

“The college produces fine young graduates who work towards a positive future and contribute generously to the community. “Our involvement this year in the launch of Education Week is a testament to the success of our school, our students and our staff.” Special guests included State Premier Gladys Berejiklian at the Sydney school, and Minister for Education Sarah Mitchell at the Dubbo school. The theme for this year’s Education Week is “Every Student, Every Voice”, with the launch incorporating a song from Hillston Central School Year 10 student Jorja Dalton and an address from Tumut High School Year 12 student Samantha Barton.

Dubbo chosen for trial Dementia Care program
BY NATALIE HOLMES A HOT meal, some friendly chatter and the chance for people to know they are not alone in the world. That’s what Dubbo Community Kitchen offers those in need. Providing a two-course dinner every Friday, the evening is all about giving support. “It’s open to anyone that wants to come,” confirmed Dubbo Community Kitchen coordinator Megan Rootes. “Anyone who comes is welcomed and respected.” Mrs Rootes said the weekly gathering is all about socialising and being part of something in the community. “It’s called Community Kitchen because we wanted it to belong to the community. “They come because they are lonely. We have some homeless people but mostly they will be unemployed. Some have said that it’s a night out. A lot of it is to do with socialising.” The kitchen is run by four teams of volunteers who each give their time once a month to

each week with the crew serving hearty winter food such as casseroles. “We try to give them protein and vegetables, there’s a lot of rice and pasta, we aim to offer a nutritious meal.” The kitchen is run under the umbrella of Emmanuel Care, so it’s a Christian-based initiative. “We have a faith and we say a prayer before we start,” Mrs Rootes explained. Dubbo Community Kitchen is now in its 15th year and has touched a lot of lives during that time. “It’s my tenth year as a volunteer,” Mrs Rootes said. “It’s on a Friday night, you go down and you come home energised. It’s just a time of giving and speaking to people you don’t otherwise get to meet.” z Dubbo Community Kitchen is held from 5.30pm to 7.30pm on Fridays at the Holy Trinity Hall, Wingewarra St. Some transport arrangements available.

“This is probably going to be the biggest thing I’ve done so far,” Kennedy said. “I think it’s very important to give people, who don’t have the opportunities like people in the big cities do, the chance to showcase their work and give them a shot,” she added. “There’s a lot of talent out here in the country.” Im has spent the last 10 months preparing her tour, which includes her new emotional single, Crying Underwater. The 30-yearold Korean-born Australian recently revealed the heartbreak behind her latest track which is about losing a friend to suicide. Since the song was released, Im has been overwhelmed with people who have experienced similar situations and she hopes she continues to inspire people to speak out. “For me, as a songwriter, it can feel at times very vulnerable and really scary to open up about things that I feel and things I’ve experienced, but I think that’s also one of the biggest joys that I get to share my story and something that I’ve gone through. “People listen to it and go, ‘Wow, that’s what I’m going through, that’s my story.’ I’ve heard that a lot from people who have heard the song,” she said. “I think that’s exactly why I need to share my stories more, it helps connect people’s experiences together.” zDami Im and special guest Tameka Kennedy

Gilgandra Council not bowing to State’s emergency levy plan Joins Dubbo to express “uproar” over cost during current drought COUNCIL WATCH By YVETTE AUBUSSON-FOLEY GILGANDRA Council has rejected the State Government’s plan to send them a bill for $19 million – and by default, their ratepayers – to fund the emergency services levy contribution. The levy means Gilgandra now pays close to $50,000 – a 25 per cent increase from 2018-19. They motioned the state government should fund the first 12 months of the levy due to the short notice received in May, and to redesign the scheme to en-
sure it was fairer for councils and communities. Dubbo Regional Council called for the same in May this year. “Dubbo Regional Council’s annual fee for 2019-20 is $1.2 million. This is an increase of $198,137 on the previous 12 months and this has the potential to impact on Council’s ability to deliver other projects,” Mayor Ben Shields told Dubbo Photo News. “Council is still very committed to ensuring the NSW Government acknowledges the impost and funds the levy for 2019-20 themselves, but if that doesn’t occur, Council will review its budget and
find a way to accommodate this shocking cost ourselves,” he said. The increase itself isn’t altogether a surprise. Legislation for the levy passed in November 2018 and the state government deferred collection of the levy in July 2017. At that time, Dubbo Regional Council interim administrator Michael Kneipp said Council was prepared to collect the levy for the NSW Government. “It’s important to note that that the NSW Government has said it is willing to take the time to get this levy right and make it fair for everyone,” he also said at that time.
The legislation states the NSW Government had until April 30 to announce its intention, but regional councils aren’t “buying” it, with notice reaching them on May 4. Councils across NSW and their associations have expressed widespread concern and “uproar” over the cost, and timing, given current drought conditions. The Emergency Services Levy will fund Workers Compensation benefits, new vehicles, new equipment and operational costs of the NSW Rural Fire Service and Fire and Rescue NSW, resulting in a $160 million increase in funding from July 1, 2019.
young people is providing opportunities for them to express themselves, meet new people and try new things, all in a safe, confidential, judgement free space,” she told Dubbo Photo News. “We try to offer a broad range of activities to suit many young people’s interests and needs to help them explore the young person they wish to become.” Aware that Headspace is framed as a mental health facility, Ms Mines said they are exploring ways to remove that stereotype. “Some young people may associate stigma with accessing the groups in the same building where people seek help, but we find that more often than not, once people walk through those front doors and see the warm, friendly, welcoming environment we offer, they are extremely excited to be involved and are soon telling their friends all about it,” she said. “We are currently looking at engaging with a videographer who might be able to help us highlight the environment we offer and the awesome vibe young people get from the groups, so this should help break down those barriers as well.” The best place for parents and young people to find out about our groups and keep up with what we are doing is on Headspace’s Facebook or Instagram pages (@headspace Dubbo) or they can call into the centre on any day and check them out for themselves. They don’t need to be a client of Headspace to attend, they just need an interest in whatever the group is about and a curiosity to learn something new and meet new people.
IN BRIEF
ESNAMHDS: What it means for mental health EVEN Superheroes Need A Mental Health Day Sometimes – or ESNAMHDS for short – is a free community event scheduled for Saturday, October 19, in Dubbo’s Victoria Park. The event has been created by Lorna Brennan from Buninyong Schools as Communities. The idea came from realising Mental Health Month in October has such a huge emphasis on adolescents and adults and not much for early childhood. ESNAMHDS is in the planning stages, with many services in the Dubbo area collaborating to ensure the children and parents attending have an eventful day. The aim is to bring a mental health awareness to parents for themselves and their young children.

WORKING IN EDUCATION
Principal’s rewarding career “Every day is different” Warren Melville says his job as a school principal is rewarding, and that today’s students give him hope that our future is in good hands. PHOTO: DUBBO PHOTO NEWS/EMY LOU PHOTOGRAPHY
By NATALIE HOLMES WHEN he was at university, Warren Melville thought he would become a geologist. Fortunately for the staff and students of Dubbo Christian School, he was swayed in a different direction. “I wanted a job that aligned with my Christian faith, would work with people and make a difference in children’s lives,” he explained. Now 10 years into his role as school principal, Mr Melville said it was a good choice. During the past decade, he said the work has
not changed too much. “There’s a bit more paperwork to do and society has changed a little but essentially it is the same job as it was 10 years ago.” Mr Melville’s daily tasks include responding to mail and emails, leading the school’s teaching and learning environment, guiding the staff in their duties and setting the future direction of the school. “I enjoy building relationships with the students, being out and about, and connecting with parents and the community,” he told Dubbo Photo News. Mr Melville said the profession-
al qualification for this position is a teaching degree. “These days, further qualifications in leadership or education are helpful and one day may be required,” he explained. While some might say that working with teenagers can be a difficult or dangerous occupation, Mr Melville said that’s not the case. “I find students to be warm, caring, willing to serve and they give me hope that our future is in good hands,” he said. Mr Melville said he doesn’t receive much community feedback
about his role. “I take that to mean that I am simply brilliant!” he laughed. “Not really, it’s a tricky job sometimes and I don’t always get it right as a principal, despite desperately wanting to.” The job does have its ups and downs, particularly when members of the school community are struggling. “It can be tough walking alongside families through difficult circumstances that happen from time to time, but it’s a privilege to be able to do this,” he said. “Sometimes I get nice feed-
back about various things, usually positive things happening in our school, and it does encourage me.” Mr Melville said that something most people don’t know about being a school principal is that they don’t get to take leave during school holidays. “I think a lot of people would wonder why anyone wants to be in this job, but I love it. Yes, there are some long days, but when I’m with the staff and students, it is so rewarding. It’s a great job, every day is different! “I honestly wouldn’t do anything else.”
ZOO CAREER
Animal work is not always predictable
Nicole Pryor has chosen zookeeping as her career. PHOTO: DUBBO PHOTO NEWS/KEN SMITH
By NATALIE HOLMES BEING up close and personal with Dubbo’s wild animals is all in a day’s work for Nicole Pryor, who has chosen zookeeping as her career. She has worked at Taronga Western Plains Zoo (TWPZ) for the past two and a half years and keeps a close eye on the animal population as part of her daily duties. “The start to my day usually involves checking on all the animals and feeding them breakfast,” Ms Pryor explained. “Next is the fun part, cleaning and picking up poo!” Ms Pryor said there is no typical day at work when you are a zookeeper. “Animals aren’t always predictable so there is always something different happening. It’s a really fun and rewarding place to work.” It was a Year 10 work placement that cemented Ms Pryor’s future, leading her to further study in the field.
“I fell in love working with animals at my local zoo. As soon as I finished Year 12, I started volunteering there. A year later, I decided to do my Certificate III in Captive Animal Management here at TWPZ,” she told Dubbo Photo News. Ms Pryor described some of her experiences working at the local zoo and the exciting times that go with it. “The White Rhino is my favourite animal. But then again maybe I am biased. Coming to work every day and seeing baby giraffe is pretty cool too!” When Ms Pryor isn’t working, she enjoys playing the guitar and music. “I also love travelling and have recently been to South Africa on safari and hiked some of the Great Walks in New Zealand.” She’s also a proud member of the Taronga team. “It’s a workplace that I can be proud to be a part of,” she said.

Dubbo men travel north to learn from history By JOHN RYAN WHEN three Dubbo blokes set off for the Northern Territory a few weeks back, they had no idea the trip was about to change their lives. Shannon Button, Justin Adams and Ricky Weatherall were hard at work when Fletcher International Export’s CEO, Melissa Fletcher, said she needed to see them. Mr Adams said it was a conversation he’ll now never forget. “Melissa’s actually on the board of the Australian Rural Leadership Foundation and she asked if we’d like to be a part of a program called Milparinga – it’s based on Aboriginal leaders and training within the community and we got asked if we’d like to be a part of it,” Mr Adams said. The guys all jumped at the chance. “The company flew us to Darwin to do the leadership course. Once we arrived we sat down for the first day and did some class work based on leadership, personalities and how you deal with stressful situations being Aboriginal leaders. (We also went through) some of the challenges that Aboriginal people still face in this day and age and how best to deal with them,” Mr Adams told Dubbo Photo News. “There were 21 of us selected from all over Australia to do this program, from the Torres Strait Islands, from Tasmania, Western Australia, from
all walks of life, ranging from ages of 21 up to 68 – a big variety of people.” The cohort then travelled to Wave Hill Station, site of a famous walk-off by more than 200 Aboriginal people in August 1966 – only 50 years ago – because British pastoral company Vestey’s was treating them like modern-day slaves, refusing to pay money for the work they did, and only providing food for the stockmen and their families. Ricky Weatherall said the experience has forever changed his outlook on life. “It’s given me a bit of fire in the belly to come back and realise I can do more. It’s just opened my eyes up to different things that I should be looking out for, it makes me want to do a bit more in the community, for the young people, ask questions to see how people are going, things like that,” Mr Weatherall said. “’You can never do too much’ is the way I like to look at it, but there is heaps to be done and there is only so much you can do, and I’m interested to see what I can come up with and how we as a group out here at Fletchers can do better.” Shannon Button said that, as an Indigenous man, he’s upset stories like the Wave Hill Walk-Off aren’t taught as mainstream history in Australian schools. “It was a great experience to go up to Darwin. I’ve never been up there

before. It was unreal to go and do that Wave Hill walk-off... at Kalkaringi, and meet all the locals – I didn’t know about the Wave Hill story until I looked it up on YouTube before we went,” Mr Button said. Melissa Fletcher said it’s imperative the company looks at instilling respect in everything they do, and she couldn’t be more impressed when it comes to the young leaders already working in the business, and
how important they are to help mentor some of the community’s most vulnerable people who get jobs at the plant. “At the end of the day, I couldn’t be prouder of these three fine young men because they’re already leaders. I wanted them to go on this course to see for themselves how far they’ve already come, but also to open them up to what else is available in the wider community,” Ms Fletcher said.

A pig called Helga ďŹ nds her place in former city slicker’s heart By YVETTE AUBUSSON-FOLEY
SUCCESSFUL author and vineyard and boutique accommodation owner, Todd Alexander, was in Dubbo last week to promote his latest title, “Thirty Thousand Bottles of Wine and a Pig Called Helga.� The memoir tells of his tree change experiences moving from a corporate job at eBay to farm 100 acres in the Hunter Valley. “We arrived on 100 acres with a pair of garden shears and an Aldi electric mower and thought we would go great guns,� he told Dubbo Photo News. “Seriously, how hard could farming possibly be. It wasn’t part of the plan but there were twelveand-a-half thousand grapevines on the property and a thousand olive trees, but we fell in love with the property because it reminded us of Maggie Beer’s. We just thought ‘we could do farming’,� Mr Alexander said. The idea of a country lifestyle struck a chord with him and his partner when visiting Mag-
gie Beer’s Farm Shop in South Australia. “Imagine if I could have sat down with her for about an hour or so, it would have scared the daylights out of me, and I probably wouldn’t have done it.� If he hadn’t, however, Mr Alexander would never have discovered his fondness for pigs which led to his meeting Helga. “Helga’s now two and I’d estimate she’s about 120 kilos. She’s really tender and sweet. She was the first farm animal I raised by hand. They’re really smart and when you look into a pig’s eyes you can see that. “She came into our life and this is where this book came from. I’d written novels before and I started posting photos of Helga on social media, and a couple of people in publishing said ‘she’s amazing’. Complete strangers were asking for more videos and it grew from there. “When they realised Helga was one small part of a much bigger tree change story and all of our stupid mistakes, it snowballed

from there.� Currently on tour in regional areas to promote his new book, he’s finding it resonates with country readers. “It’s been really rewarding. What’s interesting about talking to a country audience versus a city audience about this book, is there’s a lot of in jokes that country people really get,� Mr Alexander said. “They’ve experienced people coming from the city thinking they know everything. It’s always
that steep learning curve. ‘How hard can it be?’ Those famous last words! ‘Thirty Thousand Bottles of Wine and a Pig Called Helga’ has spent 14 weeks in the Top 10 bestselling biographies chart and is available from The Book Connection on Macquarie Street. Mr Alexander is also the author of novels “Tom Houghton: A Novel� and “Pictures of Us�, plus seven non-fiction titles about online selling inspired by his past life working for eBay.

As recruiters, Spinifex consultants conduct hundreds of interviews and some of our top tips are as follows: • Be prepared – research the company and job as much as you can. If you know who is conducting the interview, look them up on LinkedIn or the company webpage. Knowledge is power and will KHOS \RX IHHO PRUH FRQĆ“GHQW LI QRWKLQJ HOVH • Dress for success – First impressions are critical. A suit is recommended if you have one or at least smart professional, but don’t be afraid to ask the person setting up the interview about appropriate attire. Some companies are very strict about footwear and clothing on their sites (for safety reasons). Interviews are often conducted by people who may be quite conservative so today is not the day for expressing your individuality or sex appeal! Keep bare skin to a minimum, ensure hands, nails and hair are clean, and wear low-key jewellery and make up. • Interviews are often conducted in small, airless rooms. Pay attention to your personal hygiene, your breath and the amount of perfume/aftershave you are wearing. If you smoke, try to avoid having one just before you go in so that the smell doesn’t cling too much. Disastrous if your interviewer is a non-smoker. • Your interview can start from the time you leave your car in the carpark to the time you leave the site, with everybody you meet evaluating you as a potential new hire. Receptionists are often carefully disguised spies – consider them part of the process.

DUBBO Regional Theatre and Convention Centre (DRTCC) has been nominated for the prestigious Drover Awards for Performing Arts Centre of the Year. The award recognises the achievements of an outstanding presenting organisation and will be given to the presenter who provides consistently outstanding production, marketing and management services. In addition, this presenter will have achieved exceptional success in audience development and community engagement. DRTCC will compete with The Art House Wyong, Merrigong Theatre Company and Queens Park Theatre as finalists in the highly coveted award.
IT’S A RECORD! A 17-tonne truck has been lifted into the air, attached to a crane using only glue. DELO, which manufactures industrial adhesives in Germany, set a new Guinness World Record for the heaviest weight lifted with glue (non-commercially available) at a hefty 17.20 tonnes on July 12. Glue was applied to a small aluminium cylinder (the size of a soft drink can) on a crane which then lifted the truck one metre into the air. The entire weight was suspended for one hour.
TURN OFF YOUR MOBILE PHONE or better still leave it in the car. Watch your body language during the interview. Sit forward, do not fold your arms in front of you, maintain eye contact and look interested. If you need to try too hard to look interested, this may not be the job for you! • Don’t be afraid of silence. If you need time to think, take it, or ask the interviewer to repeat or clarify the question. • Google standard interview questions and do some reading and preparation of answers. Behavioural interviewing techniques are extremely common these days but can be easy to prepare for as they usually align to requirements of the job. So if the job is asking for attention to detail or great team work, it’s smart to expect a behavioural question along those lines.

Drought forces wildlife to flood town By LYDIA PEDRANA

DON’T be alarmed if there’s a kangaroo in your neighbourhood. Wildlife experts say native animals are being spotted in unlikely locations as a result of the prolonged drought. A spokesperson from Taronga Western Plains Zoo, which runs the Taronga Wildlife Hospital, said the dry spell has left little food and water for native fauna, so many species are creeping into suburban areas in search of nourishment. “It is most likely people are seeing wildlife, mainly macropods such as kangaroos and wallabies, in the outskirts and residential areas. Because of the severe drought conditions, animals are feeling a bit pushed for food and water,” the zoo spokesperson told Dubbo Photo News. The dry conditions and lack of sustenance also mean wildlife shelters are being flooded with dehydrated and compromised animals. WIRES volunteer, Di Kirkland, who mainly deals with
macropods, said the mammals are being forced to eat things they wouldn’t normally, like dry grass, weeds, bark and trees, because there’s no green pasture within reach and they don’t have the energy to jump over fences to search further for it. “(Joeys) are all coming in compromised because the mothers aren’t getting the nourishment that they are used too, and they aren’t passing it onto the joeys, meaning the joeys are coming in underweight for their age and a lot of them are dehydrated,” she said. “When we get them in, we have a pretty rough guide of what we can feed them, but at the moment because their little tummies have shrunk, we can’t do that, we have to build them up.” Our feathered friends are also feeling the pinch with many birds either fleeing the area or being left for dead. Member of the Dubbo Field Naturalist and Conservation Society, Tim Hosking, said it’s
www.dubborsl.com.au | PH (02) 6882 4411
been difficult to find many of the birds that would usually be found in the area. “It is pretty easy to see woodland birds are suffering because they rely on insects for food, but the landscape is so dry, so a lot of them have to leave the area or just perish due to the lack of food supplies,” he said. Water birds, on the other hand, have the advantage of being nomadic in nature and are making use of any body of water they can find, including
LIKE US
Dubbo’s sewage works and the Japanese gardens. “Pelicans, just like all water birds, are nomads and they’ll go where they find food, so when places like the river and some of the other artificial storages are drying down, they’ll need to find alternative sources,” Mr Hosking told Dubbo Photo News. “It doesn’t’ surprise me to see birds like pelicans doing things out of the ordinary because it’s a very out of the ordinary drought.”

Work commenced in early July and is expected to be completed within four to six

weeks, weather permitting. “A sealed road will mean residents can enjoy reduced dust levels and improved conditions,” Cr Shields said. The Village Street Sealing Program, which is now in its fourth year, has focused on upgrading roads in Eumungerie, Brocklehurst, Ballimore and Wongarbon. “This was a great initiative of Cr Greg Mohr to assist the residents of these villages and has proved to be a major success,” Cr Shields said.

Horses and riders ready to show their skills at Geurie
Wujiang sister city students arrive in Dubbo
By JOHN RYAN COUNTRY communities are remaining incredibly resilient during the current drought, even though there’s no end in sight. Nyngan’s Ag Expo was a great success last weekend despite some local properties having received less than 40 millimetres of rain this year, and that’s on top of the past two years being well under average rainfall as well. Now it’s Geurie’s turn to put on a show and organisers setting up for this weekend’s Team Penning and Arena Sorting events at the town’s Trust Grounds (Showground) are hoping people can flock from places like Dubbo to support their communities. Jenny Tracy is with the Central West Working
Horse Association which puts on the event and says it’s a great effort by the family that supplies the cattle for the event to continue their support during such a devastating drought. “We are extremely lucky that Steve and Amity Chase from Waitara Angus stud at Trangie are able to supply us with top quality Angus yearlings for us to use at our event,” Mrs Tracy said. “Unfortunately because of the drought this may be our last event until conditions improve – this mongrel drought is affecting so many people. “Our events provide a weekend of fun and laughter, something our farmers aren’t having much of these days,” she said. Incredibly, Waitara is having its annual bull sale on August 9 which means
the Chases must be working around the clock, both to keep their own enterprise ticking over and to support a community event more than an hour away at the same time. “It makes us even more grateful for their support as this is the busiest weekend of the year, yet they still make sure we have our cattle,” Mrs Tracey said.
“We are also lucky enough to have the support of local businesses like Holcim, Sweetpro, Chandler Stock Feed, Sara Jane Fine Foods, Marsh Carney, Dubbo Pet & Stockfeed, Horseland, Don Crosby Vet and Wilson Transport.” Great to see so many sponsors stay loyal even when it must be difficult to do so.
Steve and Amity Chase, with Toby, Fergus, Harry and Patrick, are from Waitara Angus. They’re generously supplying stock for the Team Penning and Arena Sorting events at Geurie’s Trust Grounds (the Showground) this weekend, August 10-11.
DUBBO Regional Council mayor Ben Shields will welcome students from Wujiang, China, one of Dubbo’s sister cities, at an afternoon tea on Tuesday, August 13. Students and host families will enjoy a week of cultural exchange including tours of Dubbo and Wellington key sites. They’ll visit Burrendong Sport and Recreation, Taronga Western Plains Zoo where they will have a close encounter with a koala, and Wellington Caves. The stuMeeting a Koala during dents will also the 2014 sister city visit attend an aboriginal culture and art workshop at the Western Plains Cultural Centre with local indigenous artist Alesha Lonsdale. They’ll see and learn about aboriginal artefacts and paint a boomerang to take back to China. The Billy O Bush Retreat at Wongarbon will provide a casual bush and bonfire experience. The students will also attend school while in Dubbo. Dubbo has three sister cities including Minokamo, Japan and Newcastle, NSW.

Now is the Time to Live Your Best Life in Retirement With the uncertainty surrounding the Federal Election behind us and the Coalition back in office, now is the perfect time to make the move and secure your retirement future.
“Quite often the family home has become too big, the yards and gardens are increasingly more difficult to maintain, and the house is more challenging to clean,” Managing Director, Mark Bindon says.
When it comes to retiring, you want to enjoy life, not take on more added stress. This is why Oak Tree’s Dubbo Retirement Village cares about making your move easy and being there every step of the way. Making the move to live with Oak Tree Retirement Villages leaves you with more time to enjoy your brand-new home, make new friends, and manage your financial future.
“We want our residents to be able to transition to a brand new and more manageable style of home, leaving them with more time to enjoy life and the things that matter – family and friends.”
Boasting a ‘worry free’ living model, residents can enjoy peace of mind every step of the way, with Oak Tree supporting you throughout the whole process from selling your old property to settling into your new home in the Village. Oak Tree helps residents gain more from their retirement, with affordable two and three-bedroom homes located within a smaller boutique-sized community. Purpose-designed for seniors wanting to remain living independently and with like-minded neighbours, the gated community in Yarrawonga Estate, offers a complete lifestyle experience with maintenance-free living, peace of mind, security, and a sense of belonging. “We find that many residents choose to move into an Oak Tree Retirement Village because they’re looking for a lower maintenance and stress-free lifestyle without compromising their quality of living.
Mr Bindon says being part of a community also makes it easier to meet new friends, discover new hobbies and finally be free to do the things you want to do. “Our Village Community Centre is a perfect space to catch up with your friends, challenge your neighbour to a game of chess or bridge, have a swim, bowl or just take a relaxing walk,” he says. Residents can also enjoy reduced living expenses, with each villa independently metered and built to include solar panels with battery storage, helping to reduce energy costs into the future. Oak Tree also offers affordable weekly service fees, which cover all maintenance and repairs, to assist seniors with budget planning and provide financial security. It’s time to stop thinking about ‘when’ and start living your new, best life today. Don’t hesitate. It’s time. Take that first step towards your new life at Oak Tree Retirement Village Dubbo by calling 1300 367 155 or visiting oaktreegroup.com.au

IN the 1960s you were meant to tie a flower in your hair if you were travelling to San Francisco, but next year that will hold true for anyone travelling to DubVegas. The 2020 Kombi Rally will be staged in Dubbo and there’ll be plenty of peace, love and kool vans Komvoying around the city, according to organiser Deb Tate who says the club ethos is “We came for the Kombi’s, stayed for the people”. “The founding group got together 11 years ago in Canberra for a social weekend. It was enjoyed so much that they decided to do it again, and the annual event called BusStop was born,” Mrs Tate told Dubbo Photo News. This event is held every Easter at various locations around the country, alternating each year between the coast and inland Australia.
This year the klub ventured to Mallacoota, a small seaside town on the Victorian coast, with members travelling from the Queensland hinterland, Victoria, South Australia and Tasmania, as well as the place in central NSW including Geurie. “When considering the 2020 inland venue we thought a central area would give an opportunity for those who don’t have more time than the long weekend to be able to travel and participate,” Mrs Tate said. “With our regional areas doing it tough with the drought, we looked for somewhere we could help in a small way, to inject some dollars into the community, while enjoying the town. “For some folks this is their only event they can make all year, and once you’ve been to one BusStop, the Bug gets you and planning for the following year begins,” she
said. There’s a Kombi Club of Australia forum and website which is run by moderators and membership is free. The group has members from all walks of life including teachers, police, farmers, retirees and young families. “We even have a couple who met at a BusStop. They married a few years later and came to BusStop before leaving for their honeymoon,” Mrs Tate said. The next time that couple returned to a BusStop they had their baby with them. “Our oldest members are in their 80s and one gent travels on his own from Griffith every year. “Dubbo was scouted and the folks so friendly we decided to make it our destination, plus it is a beautiful place to visit and our group has grown with whole families coming along for the weekend,” she said.
Tractor Trek on behalf of Little Wings will be supplying the Meet and Greet Barbecue as people arrive on the Friday night, and on the Saturday Westview Drive-In is allowing a group photo shoot before the Kombis Komvoy drives via Darling Street to the Botanical Gardens. A fancy dress gala dinner will be staged at Dubbo RSL and a local fire brigade will cater the farewell on the Sunday night. Sunday is the club’s traditional chillin’-out day, but in the afternoon at around 2.30 there’ll be Kombi Races on the basketball court at the Dubbo City Caravan Park. “Yes, (we race) toy Kombis. It’s an absolute hoot, and I hear there will be folks dressing up in race gear,” Mrs Tate laughed. “We’re a friendly bunch and are more than happy to chat with the locals if you see us around town.”

tion to detail. “What was good about it, I thought, was the boys all arranged to get together on the Saturday, unknown to their parents, and they went and bought the closest new clothes to the ones they are wearing in the original photo,” he said. “They then went down to Burren-
dong with their father... I wasn’t there, but I can imagine their father would have had the original photo in one hand and his camera in the other and saying ‘no, move it this way, move your arm there’! “If you look closely, they’ve got their arms and hands almost in exactly the same spot.”

NEWS OPINION AND ANALYSIS by JOHN RYAN
House fire proves value of smoke alarms THANK heavens for working smoke alarms. Last week’s Wellington house fire, which saw a family lose everything, could have been far worse, according to local firies. Dubbo Photo News was told that it was the fact the home was equipped with working smoke alarms that raised the alert and enabled the occupants to escape the blaze. The fire was not suspicious.
Motorbike fatality A 24-YEAR-OLD Dubbo man was killed after a motorbike crash early Saturday morning, August 3. At about 5am, police were travelling along Cobbora Road just out the front of Dubbo Hospital and came upon the scene. Police believe the motorcycle left the road and crashed into a fence and the rider died at the scene. He’s yet to be formally identified. A crime scene was established and an investigation into the circumstances surrounding the crash has commenced. A report will be prepared for the Coroner.
Dubbo Fire and Rescue at Championships WELL done to the firies from Dubbo 280 Station who travelled to the south coast last weekend to compete at the NSW Firefighter Championships against teams from across the state, coming in fourth place which is a pretty amazing effort considering the quality of the opposition. Brett Smyth, Scott Drady, Nicole Johansen, Dominic Zumbo and Ben Moore, you ought to be congratulated for the effort you put in. Firefighting is such a team effort and it’s these extra yards that our local firies go to which make them so effective when it comes to saving lives and property when they answer a call to the real thing – well done.

Congrats to Tom Peet, it’s great to see this sort of innovative thinking.
Narromine cop bite A NARROMINE police sergeant was treated at hospital after allegedly being bitten on the hand. Police said the assault happened when two officers from Orana Mid-Western Police District attended a house on Second Avenue, Narromine, on Tuesday last week (July 30), following a concern for welfare report.

Funding on offer to build Stronger Communities CREATING social benefits for communities is the driving aim of Round 5 of the Stronger Communities Programme which has allocated $150,000 to the Parkes Electorate. Member for Parkes Mark Coulton said up to 20 local community infrastructure projects will receive grants ranging from $2500 to $20,000. “These grants will fund the sort of vital infrastructure projects that bring people together, while creating vibrant and viable communities,” Mr Coulton said. Projects that were previously successful include an upgrade of the showground pavilion at Baradine, new furniture for the Curban Community Hall, and roof repairs for the Croppa Creek Bowling Club.

Thanks to over 120 people attending and making donations, Mrs Stageman was able to hand over two cheques of $775 each to the Pink Angels and Make A Wish Foundation Dubbo Volunteer Branch. Caterer for the event, Food At Yours’ Caitlyn Amor, also donated proceeds, adding $50 to each charity. “It was fantastic. I’ve been asked by other venues to consider doing something similar with them,” Mrs Stageman said.

“Donations like this are used to give care, help and support to local breast cancer patients in our region which is serviced by breast care nurses who go out as far as Bourke, Lightning Ridge, Coonabarabran, and everything in between,” Pink Angel’s volunteer Margo Green told Dubbo Photo News. While receiving treatment in Sydney, Mrs Stageman often saw children getting chemo too, and so decided Make A Wish Foundation also needs help. “Make A Wish brings hope, strength and joy to children with serious illness by granting them wishes. Sometimes the children are still in hospital, so just the thought of planning the wish is enough to get them through the next session of chemo or needles,” Make A Wish Dubbo Volunteer Branch spokesperson Karen McMullen said.
IMAGINE a book club with 197,000 members! It would make for a very crowded lounge room, unless you belong to the Better Reading Book Club which was broadcast live online from Dubbo last Wednesday. The club was founded by Cheryl Akle who was manager of the former Australian government program ‘Get Reading’, and now runs ‘Better Reading’ which recommends books as well as hosting a monthly live book club for audiences anywhere. “Most of our audience comes from country Australia. They’re often people who can’t find other people to have a book club with or they can’t leave their home for some reason. “We reach about 732,000
people through the period of a month, but we also have a weekly newsletter and a podcast,” Mrs Akle told Dubbo Photo News. Presenting her July book club broadcast from The Book Connection on Macquarie Street, with visiting author Todd Alexander, the half-hour informal chat allowed viewers to have their questions answered on the spot. “I’m constantly surprised by people who make personal comments, thanking me by name for example. People have a personal connection,” she said. The book club’s popularity puts to bed early fears with the advent of the internet that ‘the book’ was dead. “A lot of our audience are aspiring writers too. On Thursday last week we launched a podcast series
called ‘On Writing’. We’ve been trending on iTunes, and we’re sitting right next to the New York Times,” Mrs Akle said. Over 3000 viewers tuned into the 30-minute Dubbo broadcast.

NEWS EXTRA Life-changing journey to Wave Hill Station
OPINION, ANALYSIS, FEATURES, DEPTH.
Three Dubbo men, all employed at Fletcher’s in Dubbo, have returned from an emotional journey to the site of the 1966 walk-off from Wave Hill Station in the Northern Territory. Some say the story of that place should be front and centre in our school history books, but it’s also a place where life lessons can be learned, JOHN RYAN reports. DUBBO photographer Merv Bishop took one of the nation’s unforgettable images when he snapped prime minister Gough Whitlam pouring sand from his hand into the hand of Vincent Lingiari. The photograph was captured nine years after Lingiari led more than 200 Aboriginal stockmen and their families in a walk-off from Wave Hill Station to protest against their British masters who had them working as virtual slaves, getting rations instead of being paid wages. Now there’s a new Dubbo connection to Wave Hill and its history 50 years on, with three supervisors at Fletcher International, all Indigenous, following in the footsteps of that trek into the wilderness to learn not only about the resilience of that group of Aboriginal people, but also to find out about themselves. Melissa Fletcher, CEO of Fletcher International Exports, is a board member with the Australian Rural Leadership Foundation which aims to develop leaders for rural, regional and remote Australia “I’m very passionate about the Foundation. It really looks after regional and remote areas and promotes leaders,” Ms Fletcher told Dubbo Photo News. She says Australia depends heavily on regional and remote areas for its exports, agriculture and manufacturing, so it’s vital that new generations of leaders are nurtured in these regional areas. The Australian Rural Leadership Foundation provides a “real opportunity for our people to go to these courses and to develop our leaders”, Ms Fletcher said, adding that she hopes her staff then get the opportunity to do the same major course that she completed. “Our mentors in this business, that is our supervisors and trainers, don’t understand on a day to day basis how they’re already leaders, how they’re already helping our people within our community. It’s not just a job for them because they also invest their own time,” she said. Ms Fletcher is immensely proud of those leaders who are already underpinning much of Dubbo’s social fabric by helping out, lifting up and mentoring many people in the business who haven’t had opportunities
Australia. It brought together people from all walks of life, ranging from ages 21 to 68. “The company flew us to Darwin to do the leadership course. Once we arrived we sat down for the first day and we did some class work based on leadership, based on personalities and how you deal with stressful situations being Aboriginal leaders; some of the challenges that Aboriginal people still face in this day and age and how best to deal with them,” Mr Adams said. On the second day they had a nine-hour bus trip to Kalkaringi and straight into a debrief before meeting the local Aboriginal elders including Vincent Lingiari’s brother-in-law Jimmy, now in his 80s, who was part of the walk off at Wave Hill in 1966. “We went up to the top of Wave Hill where they lived in humpies and sheds – the Aboriginals had lived on one side of the creek and the white stockman lived on the other side of the creek,” Mr Adams learned. “The Aboriginals weren’t allowed to cross the creek at all unless given permission, they had no access to water or toilets. The white stockmen had running water, pumps, pipes, (but the Aboriginals) had to collect water with buckets and drums,” Mr Adams said. “This whole walk-off was based on Vincent not receiving the same amount of pay as what the white stockmen were getting. “He’d run into an Aboriginal union bloke in Western Australia who got into Vincent’s JUSTIN Adams says the trip ear and said it wasn’t fair, and was a whirlwind, both physical- that he had rights.

These are day to day things that are taken for granted by most people. “I’ve got a number of people in our staff who give personal driving lessons, they pick up and drop off others for work, they ring people up, they give out their numbers to take personal calls and just listen to people,” she said, describing the workplace as “our own little community” and one which she wants to see having more and more positive impact on the wider community in Dubbo and the Orana region. “At the end of the day, I couldn’t be prouder of these three fine young men because they’re already leaders. I wanted them to go on this course to see for themselves how far they’ve already come, but also to open them up to what else is available in the wider community. “I think sometimes we get too big in our heads with numbers and percentages and images and statistics. What I try to look at in this workplace is what we can possibly do or say, that one word, that might just change one person’s life. “It could be a kind word, or it could be a shoulder to cry on.

until the first stop where they’d dug for water for a few hours and couldn’t find any, so straight on for another eight kilometres to the Victoria River where the workers camped for the first two years. “There was another tribe 10 kilometres away and they invited Vincent and the 220-odd workers up to their camp because there was more access to water, and they stayed there until Gough Whitlam became prime minister and bought Wave Hill from Lord Vestey – and to this day Aboriginal people run the station,� Mr Adams said. Shannon Button said during the walk he couldn’t help thinking about his young children, and the courage it would have taken for parents to bundle up their families and live off the land for eight years, just seeking fair wages for a day’s work. “I was just thinking what they went through, there were young kids there as well doing that walk – I’ve got three kids, I was imagining how courageous this walk was,� Mr Button said, noting how privileged he felt to be part of the experience 50 years after the event. “I’m honoured the Fletcher family sent me up to the Northern Territory, I want to do a lot more for the Fletchers now, it’s going to make me a better leader at work, in my community and at home,� he said. Ricky Weatherall said it’s incredible these events in Indigenous history – in Australian history – aren’t more widely taught. “A lot of these stories are unknown and that’s pretty sad because they’re such great stories. A lot of Aboriginal people could benefit by hearing them and maybe implementing some of the stuff into their own lives,� Mr Weatherall said. “I’ve grown a lot as a person and as a leader from all these opportunities that have come up. I usually don’t worry about them but I’m trying to get myself out of my comfort zone and become a better person, a better leader and develop myself. “It was a great honour to go up there and I’m so privileged I got to be a part of it,� he said. He believes the trip has changed the way he’ll look at everything in his life, and after seeing living conditions of Aboriginal people in the Northern Territory he’s more determined than ever to help peo-

ple in Dubbo achieve the most they can from life. “It’s given me a bit of fire in the belly to come back and realise I can do more, it’s just opened my eyes up to different things that I should be looking out for. It makes me want to do a bit more in the community, for the young people, ask questions to see how people are going, things like that,� Mr Weatherall said, pointing out the trip has given him new insights so he can new see, far more clearly, how you can assist others. “Yeah, it does open your eyes up. A lot of people get caught up in their own life and what’s going on at home and don’t really realise the wider view of the community and what struggles other people are going through. The experience has given Mr Weatherall a unique insight that “makes you want to try harder and make that little bit more of an effort to help others�. “‘You can never do too much’ is the way I like to look at it,� he said.
I found out the photographer was a Dubbo fella, it felt like we were in the right place and everything that we were doing was for a reason. “It makes me realise how lucky we are to be living now rather than back then, and how tough they had it, the tough situation they were in – it makes me realise how amazing my life is,� he said. Shannon Button agrees that he needs to help locals make the most of the opportunities on offer. “It was an eye-opener (up in the Northern Territory) when we went down the street for a walk and saw all the Indigenous people sitting around asking for money and
LIKE the other boys, Mr Weatherall was amazed to find out that the bloke who took that famous photo of Vincent Lingiari and Gough Whitlam is also a Dubbo boy. “That was the first I’d heard of the whole story,� Mr Weatherall said. “When I saw that photo I thought what a great moment in the story of Aboriginal peo- The headstone of Vincent Lingiari inple, but there’s not much being cludes his words: “We want to live on told about it.

just real poor looking. It made me sad seeing them like that. There should be someone there trying to get them up – they’re sleeping in the parks as well,� Mr Button said. “It had a lot of impact on me because they’re really struggling up there. “We’ve got it pretty good down here.� Justin Adams agrees wholeheartedly and says the trip provided a pivotal life-changing experience for him. “To be a leader I think you need to be content within yourself, you need to know yourself first, and I learnt a lot about myself when I was away in the NT. I’m going to ask more questions as to why things go wrong, why people are in the situations they are in, and then do our best to help them because that gap is still there – there’s still that gap of disadvantage that Aboriginal people face,� Mr Adams said. “We can’t as Aboriginal people keep blaming the government, we can’t keep blaming each other, we can’t keep blaming white people, we’ve got to do something and it’s up to us, and that’s where Melissa and Roger Fletcher have come on board and said we’ve got to play our part in the community. “Melissa’s insight and direction is inspirational and it rubs off on us, and Roger’s the same. It’s the best business and the best company not only in Australia but in the world – they’re on the ground, they’re on the floor, they’re not in offices in Sydney somewhere getting on the phone ringing us,
SO many highlights and insights from the trip can’t be documented in these pages because of space limitations but a few moments stood out for the guys – getting welcomed by river water being poured on their heads, being together so they can share the experience into the future, and writing a song. “One of our challenges was to write a song about our experiences on Wave Hill and we did it as a group. That night we invited the local tribe to our campsite for tea and cooked a big stew and they brought all their families and kids, and then we actually sang it to them to thank them. “We’d never written a song in our lives. We based the song on Vincent and the journey of endurance of his people,� Mr Adams said. “I felt proud singing the song, it was a really good feeling to see the smiles on the local Aboriginal peoples’ faces.� The boys were also confronted with a darker underside to the public story, with the tribe that looked after the workers now claiming their leader Sonny should have received much of the public credit for the epic adventure. “There’s actually two sides to this story. Sonny was Vincent’s best mate for 40 years and currently the two tribes are at loggerheads over this story,� Mr Adams explained. There’s the story that’s been played out in the media, but then there’s another side to the story as well. “That tribe is saying that Sonny was the one that inspired Vincent to walk off, that Sonny was the backbone that fed Vincent’s tribe, that Sonny was the one that set them up, so he should be the one that’s recognised through Australia,� he said. “They only live eight kilometres apart, but the relationship is on thin ice. “We went out to meet Sonny’s family and part of our leadership role was for us to learn that there’s always two sides to the story, and that we must get both sides to the story and then make our own minds up, and also to try and bring everyone together and unite them as one. “Whilst everyone’s fighting amongst themselves for the scraps, and until Aboriginal people can unite as one, we won’t succeed,� he said. „

NEWS EXTRA There’s a strong case for allowing medical cannabis OPINION & NEWS ANALYSIS
John Ryan ❚ OPINION & ANALYSIS Send your news tips to john.ryan@panscott.com.au or 0429 452 245 txt is best CHANNEL 7 has hit a nerve this week. I was getting plenty of messages and texts on Sunday night to make sure I watched the Sunday Night program where celebrity chef Pete Evans did a yarn on medicinal cannabis. Incredibly, on the same night, Channel 9’s 60 minutes reported on Olivia Newton-Johns’ husband growing cannabis in their backyard for medicinal purposes. I’ve spoken to many people over the years who’ve had incredibly positive results from using cannabis for medical and mental health purposes, and also other industrial hemp products such as CBD (Cannabidiol, which is a non-intoxicating compound that can be derived from hemp and marijuana*). People with depression have told me the pharmaceutical drugs they get prescribed have often made them want to harm themselves – in many cases the highpriced cure seems to be worse than the original health problem. Another mate has replaced a
massive daily dose of prescription drugs with a few puffs of a hemp CBD spray. I’ve followed the debate on social media and contacted many people who’ve claimed that the hemp plant in whatever variety has eased their Post Traumatic Stress Syndrome, people like former police or veterans who went to war and came back shattered from those experiences. And what are our governments doing? Going slow on allowing people to grow and process these natural plants, but allowing some companies to grow their own plants under unnatural conditions and whack in additives to sell at obscenely high prices. I sure can’t see how someone who’s been unable to work because of chronic pain or mental health issues would be able to pay $800 to $3500 a month for medicine they can grow better in their backyards for free. Where’s the justice in that? The ideologues who oppose this haven’t been the people suffering; they’re not the people who have children suffering indescribable pain as their condition worsens each week. Sunday Night interviewed a bloke called Gary Christian who was put up on the program as a specialist researcher for Drug Free Australia, and I’m annoyed
he couldn’t be bothered answering the few questions I sent him: 1) On what scientific basis can you support your claim that any claimed benefits from medicinal cannabis are all in the mind, a placebo effect in other words? 2) How many of the people who’ve claimed medicinal cannabis has cured them, or offered them immense relief from pain and suffering, have you interviewed as part of your research for the organisation Drug Free Australia? 3) Do you support all the legalised pharmaceutical drugs in Australia, even the ones which have horrendous side-effects? 4) If you do support these pharmaceutical drugs, how do you reconcile that with working for an organisation called Drug Free Australia? 5) Do you concede that you’ve interpreted information from studies of Portugal’s drug laws quite differently from many other researchers? Australia is swimming in drugs that are considered legal by governments and the law enforcement agencies they instruct, and it’s debatable whether alcohol causes more trouble than the negative side-effects from prescription drugs such as opioids, because problems with these legal pharmaceuticals often fly under radar and are difficult to collate
in any meaningful way. In a paper he wrote discussing Portugal decriminalising drugs, Gary Christian stated: “Something was driving down use in Portugal before they decriminalised. And yet it is decriminalisation which is continually given the credit. Something else was already in play, but I have no clue what it was.” That’s a highly placed influential researcher who admits he hasn’t a clue about what drove down drug use in Portugal since decriminalisation, but is adamant the factor wasn’t the decriminalisation itself. I know I’ve cherry-picked a quote here and it’s not contextualised, but in my view, at any level, these sorts of statements don’t pass any pub test. On a regional level, our farmers and local processing industries could make plenty of hay out of cannabis and hemp once seed varieties, processing plants and supply chains have been sorted. Canada legalised cannabis last year, the first developed nation to do so, and there are predictions it could grow into a $5 billion industry. We’d probably save $5 billion just in jail and police costs by not having pot smokers and smalltime dealers incarcerated, and all the social problems locking these people up has created.

COMMENT BY JOHN RYAN
ANNUAL SHOWS
Top junior judges on show By JOHN RYAN VEGIES, chooks and wool were amongst the smorgasboard of goods up for assessment by some of the state's top junior judges last weekend. An array of primary produce was set up at Dubbo's showground as valuable training to help the NSW reps get fully prepared for the upcoming national finals to be held at Perth Royal from the end of the month. The Perth Show will see nine National Young Judges competitions held including the inaugural Alpaca Young Judge, with the competitions covering all aspects of modern farming with Beef Parading, Beef Cattle, Merino Sheep, Merino Fleece, Meat Breeds Sheep, Dairy Parading, Dairy Cattle, Poultry and Alpaca. They're open to competitors between the ages of 15 and 25. To be eligible to represent NSW in a National Young Judges competition the entrants must qualify at a group final regionally, then win their State Final at Sydney Royal Easter Show. Dubbo beef parader Sam Parish said the weekend was a vital final preparation to take on the best from across the nation. He was selected from
Unfortunately, hemp has a few minor players against it, such as the oil, pharmaceutical, timber and chemical industries to name a few, and these are big donators to political parties across the western world, where a $1 million donation could protect billions in corporate profits. At the moment, with major corporates getting a big slice of the medical cannabis pie, you have to wonder how our lawmakers can sleep by handing this natural drug over to big pharma for profits. There should be a law against that.

110 in his competition at Sydney Royal. An early starter, he's been interested in show cattle since he was five years old and has been part of the successful St Johns College team which regularly scoops up awards across the eastern states. "I grew up with both my parents interested in the beef industry, and so many cattle shows are held in Dubbo so I learnt a lot running around all of them," he said. Mr Parish said the shows are a good bonding experience too. “Even though we're in different categories, we'll be lifelong friends, and already
we've said we'll all support each other at the different events. "The bond that agricultural kids have is tremendous, we have the ability to form close friendships in very short periods of time and we're all looking forward to giving back to the industry and the ASC (Agricultural Societies Council) when we're older." ASC of NSW president Tim Capp believes the ag industry is such an incredible fellowship, and is pleased their collective attitude is to continue in the industry and support the organisations around it which do so much work
in their communities and across the state. "The Show offers a bit of an out for not only farmers but for country people who are all so reliant on the industry and all suffering from the drought," Mr Capp said. "You can get away from business, you can get away from the farm for the day or a couple of days and go to your local show. "The show is probably still one of the biggest events in country calendars for that particular town and that particular area, so it gives people something else to do, something else to think about, whinge about the weather and talk about being one day closer to rain," he said. NSW has representation in all nine competitions plus the National Rural Ambassador Award, with a good chance of taking home the hotly contested Patrick Keast Shield Award for the jurisdiction with the most points. The Agricultural Societies Council of NSW has been operating since 1929 as the parent body of the 195 agricultural show societies in NSW. Its primary role is to support the local show societies and to promote and protect the pastoral, agricultural, horticultural and industrial resources of Australia.
You can help Wellington Arts WELLINGTON ARTS is a stand-out when it comes to local community organisations, running on less than the smell of an oily rag and doing great things. Like other not-for-profits that don’t have any regular income stream, this crew is constantly trying to source income through all available funding streams and grant opportunities, without targeting our local businesses which are struggling in the current drought. President Lisa Thomas (pictured) is pleased that during the past 12 months Wellington Arts has delivered multiple and varied events and activities for our community. “We wish to provide this resource of connecting community through the arts well into the future for Wellington and the region,” Mrs Thomas said. “We have a strength in numbers and if all our community groups continue to deliver quality social events and support each other we will demonstrate we are a community to be reckoned with, whether it be through entertainment, sport, cultural, business acumen or the arts. “It is time we shed the negative perceptions, concentrate on the things that we do well as a community, and encourage tourism opportunities, trade and business opportunities and embrace our varied and expanding cultural heritages and influences – let’s bring positive engagement, inter-
est and respect back to our community,” she said. Here’s how you can help – if you’re a local business, agency or organisation, draft up a general letter of support recognising Wellington Arts as a community contributor. These letters will be utilised to support future funding applications as Wellington Arts demonstrates its viability and capacity within the community. “Your consideration for providing a supporting letter will be greatly appreciated, and this support will allow us to continue bringing some joy to the community through change of attitudes and creativity,” Mrs Thomas said. For a small amount of time spent, this could really make a difference to Wello and it’s something Dubbo organisations should consider supporting as well.

Instagram says its decision to hide the number of likes a photo receives has been done as a means of caring for its users’ mental health, but experts are sceptical.
By LYDIA PEDRANA OPINIONS are still divided over Instagram’s decision to hide the number of likes a photo or post receives on the platform, with some users in full support of the move and others begging for the metrics to be reinstated. The hidden likes trial is now in place in six countries and, according to Instagram, it was introduced as means of caring for user’s mental health. “We are rethinking the whole experience of Instagram to address issues around wellbeing and to ensure the Instagram community has a positive experience on our platform,” the company said in a statement. While some are mourning the loss of public approval metrics, mental health experts genuinely feel it’s a positive step for the wellbeing of young minds. Respected adolescent psychologist Michael Carr-Gregg said any step taken to protect mental health must be embraced. “Every young person is looking for units of recognition, every young person is trying to figure out who they are and get positive attention, and clearly social media isn’t ideal, so they (Instagram) are hoping they can get people to focus less on the Likes and more on telling their story – and from a psychological point of view, that

is sensational,” he told Dubbo Photo News. “I do think they need to do more, but this is a start, which is good because when it comes to social media, you expect companies to be interested in the profits of their shareholders, not the health and wellbeing of young people, so any move in that direction is to be welcomed.” Psychologist and director of Macquarie Health Collective in Dubbo, Tanya Forster, echoed Mr Carr-Gregg’s sentiment, but said the problem lies much deeper than simply likes. “We have to remember that people can still view how many likes they receive on images through their own profiles, so irrespective of whether they can see how many likes other people receive, there is still a good chance they will de-

rive some of their own sense of self-worth from the likes they receive individually,” she said. “In addition to this, the social media world continues to allow people to create a false sense of their picture perfect lives, and for as long as that is the world our youth are comparing themselves to, it is difficult to teach them body love, acceptance, or to love themselves just the way they are.” Meanwhile, others are calling Instagram’s bluff on their mental health reasoning, instead believ-

Goldsmith, who runs multiple Instagram business accounts for clients, thinks the mental health angle is a phony and that Facebook and Instagram are simply “scaling up their payment model”. “I actually think the move is quite superficial because as soon as you click on ‘others’ you can see how many have liked it anyway,”
Ms Goldsmith said. “Certainly, Facebook has been under a lot of pressure in terms of mental health and the role of social media in the sense of well-being, and I guess they’re tackling it on a number of fronts, but I don’t see anything substantial in it at this point in time. “You have to be fairly cynical when it comes to social media and forcing a spend now because they are all pretty much doing that...

Skilled migrant appeals for fair chance at jobs The Editor, I greatly enjoyed reading the story “Skilled migrants a boon for regional workforce”, [Dubbo Photo News, cover story, July 25]. I would like to share a bit more on this topic. On behalf of the skilled migrants in the Orana Region, I would like to thank the Australian Government and the Orana RDA for giving us the opportunity to live and work in this beautiful country, especially to live and work in the Orana region, a region that is rapidly developing and a region that has spectacular natural beauty. Most importantly, I would like to thank the Australian Government and the Orana RDA for recognising us as skilled migrants, although unfortunately many employers in the region are still not comfortable hiring us. Despite the fact that many of us have high qualifications and several years of work experience, many employers have rejected us on the basis that we do not have ‘local experience’. Even though I have a Master of Science degree in Civil Engineering from Texas A&M University and a Bachelor of Science degree in Civil Engineering from Virginia Tech, and have experience of working at the Texas A&M University library, my application for ‘Library Assistant’ at the Dubbo Regional Library was rejected.

As published in the Dubbo Photo News article, research has shown that “skilled migration is critical in delivering benefits to the local economy and workforce”. I can assure you that, if skilled migrants are able to work in their field of expertise and are given the chance to exercise their full potential, then the local economy will become more vibrant than ever. Therefore, it is my sincere request to prospective employers, please give us a chance as we all have one goal – to work for a better and brighter Australia’. Ridwan Quaium, Dubbo
More information on that ‘friendly feathered fellow’ The Editor A great photo of an Azure Kingfisher captured by Ken Smith in last week’s Dubbo Photo News, with its distinctive long pointed beak, rufous (reddish-brown) breast, and short tail. It’s smaller (17-19cm) than the more common Sacred Kingfisher (20-23cm) and typically perches in shade, low over water. It’s a fact that we can see some species here, such as the Azure Kingfisher, which don’t live in many other regions of Australia. Previously listed as a ‘rare resident’, since around 2007 it’s been noted as being resident along the Macquarie around Dubbo. With the approach of spring and seasonally-migrant birds arriving, with some birds already nesting, it’s worth having or borrowing a Field Guide to Australian Birds – amazingly, about 936 species are recorded in the 2017 Guide, by Menkhorst et al. Combine that with the bird list in Plants and Animals of the Dubbo Region (2nd ed 2016) published by Dubbo Field Naturalist and Conservation
Society (DFNCS), and you can narrow that down to the approximately 265 species recorded for our area. This is an invaluable 222-page book full of colour photos, available from our Visitor Information Centre or local bookstore. DFNCS members are always happy to hear about or identify bird sightings via contact@dubbofieldnats.org.au, especially as the prolonged drought has pushed some species outside their usual range. Elsie Howe, Dubbo, DFNCS member since it began in 1977 Editor’s note: Looking very closely at Ken’s photo published in Paparazzi last week, for the few seconds this Azure Kingfisher stopped for a photo, it appeared to have its foot tangled in some green plastic string. Ken assures us this little bird flew away untangled and unharmed. A lot of attention is paid to the harm done to wildlife by plastic in our oceans, but as Ken’s photo shows, plastics and rubbish are a potential hazard to our western wildlife too.
Thanks to Dubbo Field Naturalist and Conservation Society member Elsie Howe for identifying this bird featured in last week’s Dubbo Photo News as an Azure Kingfisher.
Redemption story: That didn’t take long did it? ❚ OPINION EIGHTEEN months have not quite passed since the event described at the time as the “darkest day in Australian cricket” occurred – the captain and vice-captain of the Australian cricket team bringing the hallowed institution of cricket into disrepute by sanctioning cheating during a match in South Africa. Scarcely moments after the scandal broke, whilst Cricket Australia management were lamenting the damage to their media rights, the media were calling for the protagonists to be given space and a chance of redemption. Not quite 18 months on, redemption has arrived! Due to their performance against the traditional English foe, Steve Smith and David Warner have been welcomed back into the arms of the ador-
from the English crowd. While, realistically, being ordered to cheat by superiors is a less despicable act, the guilt by association is real. Of course, none of this matters to the media and the fans. The media needs something to write about, and Cricket Australia has money to make. The current silence on the cheating has been deafening. As I predicted when the cheating scandal first broke, when it came time for the rehabilitation of these two cheaters, the PR firms swung into overdrive. The media pushed the redemption stories, so Smith and Warner could return to the team with the sympathy of Australian fans behind them. Winning on the sports field means forgiveness, regardless of the circumstances. Unless you are Adam Goodes. As I also wrote at the time of the ball tampering scandal, Adam Goodes was not afforded the same media and public treatment as the cricketing cheats. The contrast could not have
been starker, or a greater indictment on the Australian public. Goodes did not initiate the egregious act directed at him, but when he called out the perpetrator, he become the subject of media and public vilification – tormented to the point of retiring from his sport because he dared to call out blatant ingrained racism. Watching the documentary “The Final Quarter” and seeing the outright racism of many media pundits, who claimed their criticism of Goodes to be nothing to do with race, was mind-blowing. In many cases it was the same media as are now pushing the Smith/Warner redemption, that so ferociously and enthusiastically harassed Goodes into early retirement. There is no better example of how redemption is given to the unworthy, while the worthiest are treated with ingrained prejudice. z Greg Smart lives and works in Dubbo, and is keen observer of current affairs.

ing public, because Ashes victory is apparently the ultimate sporting prize. Certainly, a prize worthy enough to bury the heinous crime of sports cheating as a distant memory for ‘good men who made a mistake’. The reporting of Smith’s performance in particular has been nothing but reverential, landing between cementing his status as amongst cricket’s great names (according to the ABC) and the closest thing to Don Bradman in the modern game (according to the Sydney Morning Herald). David Warner was shown in news coverage joking with the English crowd, pulling his pocket linings inside out with a wry smile whilst the crowd jeered. Let’s not forget this was the ‘leadership group’ that wilfully and deliberately sanctioned the cheating, instructing a junior team member to covertly tamper with the ball so the Australian team’s victory chances were enhanced. The junior team member in question, Cameron Bancroft, received boos and cries of ‘cheat’

Contributed by MARGARET LYNCH (PUBLICITY OFFICER) ORANA Physical Culture launched into the 2019 competition season attending an interclub at the Callaghan College Waratah Technology Campus in Newcastle. The Speers Point Physie club hosted the event with the program listing 11 other clubs challenging for placings. The Newcastle zone has a strong presence in this sport and, as expected, the standard of performance was high. A large contingent of fam-
ily, friends and spectators travelled to the interclub along with 42 Orana participants who watched and/ or competed in a full day of Physie. The club gratefully receives sponsorship from the Peppercorn Childcare Centre which provided a bus to and from this event, and Tommy Cattell volunteering as the driver for the weekend. Up against some of the best clubs in the state, Orana Physie fared well gathering 16 placings across the various groupings.

WELLINGTON NEWS FABULOUS FELINE
Clever “Cat” the one-eyed cat, kills a dirty rat, at the ripe old age of 26 By COLIN ROUSE AFTER 26 years in the same job, many people would be thinking about a career change or retirement – particularly when part of the job involves catching rats. But there’s one helper at a Wellington store that doesn’t look like putting her paws up any time soon. Back in 1993, a client dropped off a kitten to Michael White, the proprietor of Michael White & Co in Wellington, after they had heard about the sad passing of the previous shop cat – and 26 years later, “Cat” the cat is still going strong as the resident shop cat. Cat has a snuggly, blanket-filled basket in the store and also loves to spend her days lying in the sun. When Cat was much younger, a cruel little boy was setting a house fire nearby and poked out one of poor Cat’s eyes with a burning stick, but this disability has never stopped Cat being a fine mouser.
Only last week, Michael came to work to find Cat squawking proudly over a headless rat that had dared to enter her shop. Not bad going at 26 years old. In human years, according to popular belief, she would be 182. The clients who visit the store love to see Cat, and she likes to sit on the counter and meet and greet the customers. She has been known to climb into customers’ cars and help herself to any tasty treats left inside the vehicle, especially if fish and chips were involved. They were obviously left for her on the seat of the car. Why else would the window be open? These days, because of her age, she eats mostly soft tinned cat food, but her food of choice used to be Friskies dry food. She loved them so much that whenever Michael tried to feed her other brands, she would go to a shop pallet, rip open a bag of Friskies and help herself. Oh well, a lady wants what a lady wants.

fraction of America’s. There hasn’t been a mass shooting in Australia since Port Arthur but in the 18 years leading up to it there were 12 others. The Shooters Party tried to undermine the National Firearms Agreement by seeking to pass laws in the New South Wales Parliament which would introduce “personal and property protection in the home” as a reason to own a gun. The provision is similar to the US Second Amendment and ^V\SK LZZLU[PHSS` HSSV^ HU`VUL PU 5:> [V V^U H ÄYLHYT PM [OL` state that the reason is personal and property protection.

Critters keeping warm: Peter Woodward was at the zoo on one of our colder winter days and captured this cute bunch of fur. Looks like at least three of these cute critters were bundled up and keeping each other warm.
Sign of love? A Paparazzi correspondent spotted this lock attached to the fencing on the western side of the L.H. Ford Bridge and, being a bit of a romantic, wondered if someone was trying to get a Dubbo version of the famous “love locks” of Italy going. In Florence, for example, thousands of love padlocks are attached to various bridges by couples wanting to show their love. Although, the idea is not without its drawbacks – once the number of love locks at Florence’s Ponte Vecchio bridge reached 5500, the city council had to remove them because of concerns over the sheer weight of the locks, and that they obstructed views.
Tomato triplet: Thanks to DPN reader Kate for sharing this photo of an odd-shaped tomato she found ready to pick from her grandma’s garden. Apparently, it tasted three times as good!

PUZZLE EXTRA GO FIGURE
PETS on PARADE
Helga the German Shepherd Firstly, are you from Germany? Neine, mein Mensch. I’m from Wellington. Well, I was actually born in Dubbo, but my humans brought me to Wellington where I live with my daughter April, two cats and chickens. Oh well, I’m not sure what happened to the chickens... (Looks guilty) Ah... what’s Mensch? Can we print that here? It means ‘my human’. Phew, thanks Frauline. (Growls, jokingly... I think) Nice teeth, do you floss? As a matter of fact, I do... on chicken legs. Moving along... we hear you’re a mother? Humans think they’re hard done by only giving birth to one! I had nine of them... Autsch! (Means ouch) I thought you were an Aussie? I am but I learnt a little from the previous German Shepherd ‘Sheba’ who lived here. She taught me everything I know before she
sadly passed away... (Starts to get teary) Oh, please don’t do that... here, have a Schmacko! Oh, thank you, they’re my favourite! How did you know? I heard that’s not the only thing you love. You’re a very spoilt puppy? Yes, I only eat chicken legs and kangaroo meat. My human also leaves a little ice cream in the bowl too. So, what do you and April get up to? You know, sleep, walk, eat, swim, trips in the back of the new car... oh, and chasing the cats! The poor cats! Oh... they ask for it. You should see the way Bub looks at me. I’m only protecting April! Do you like swimming in the river? I love it! There is nothing better, well, maybe Cheese Twisties, but I could swim all day. It’s been a pleasure talking to you Helga. Do you have anything else to add? Yes, an old German proverb. My mother used to say it: “Everything has an end, only a sausage has two.” – Interview by Yvette Aubusson-Foley.
If you’re a local pet and would like to be featured here, get your owner to contact Dubbo Photo News on 6885 4433 or email contact details to feedback@dubbophotonews.com.au

The idea of Go Figure is to arrive at the figures given at the bottom and right-hand columns of the diagram by following the arithmetic signs in the order they are given (that is, from left to right and top to bottom). Use only the numbers below the diagram to complete its blank squares and use each of the nine numbers only once.
Place a number in the empty boxes in such a way that each row across, each column down and each small 9-box square contains all of the numbers from one to nine.

ODDS, ENDS & INSPIRATION STRANGE BUT TRUE
z French playwright Louis Verneuil once said: “The prime purpose of eloquence is to keep other people from talking.” z The year 1828 was a sad one for winemakers. For unknown reasons, 80 per cent of the bottles of Champagne bottled that year exploded. z There is a law on the books in Maine that prohibits having your shoes untied in public. I assume that one is not much enforced. z In 2002, in an effort to be more environmentally friendly, Ireland decided to try to reduce the use of plastic grocery bags by levying a 15-cent tax on each one. It worked, too – use of the bags dropped by 95 per cent. z Sir Christopher Wren, who designed the famous London land-
mark St. Paul’s Cathedral, was an astronomer, not an architect. His other achievements included developing a method for calculating eclipses and devising a way to measure the rings of Saturn. z Tony Curtis, who co-starred with Marilyn Monroe in the famous film “Some Like It Hot”, once said that kissing Ms Monroe was “like kissing Hitler”. Makes you wonder how he knew what kissing Hitler was like. z If you’re like the average bearded man, your facial hair grows at a rate of about 15cm every year. z In the Scandinavian country of Norway you can find 1800 lakes that contain no fish whatsoever. z Do you want an excuse to use the number six sextillion, five hundred eighty-eight quintillion? Ask someone if they want to know how much the Earth weighs.
NOW HERE’S A TIP z Yet another use for a microfibre cloth: Keep one in your vehicle to dust the dashboard or remove smudges from your windshield. z Bring a binder clip and a zip-top plastic bag with you on a flight, and you can put your phone in the bag and clip it up on the seat in front of you for easy viewing. A gallon-size bag, two binder clips and a small bungee work for a tablet. z “Our family loves to make our own pizza, and we purchase dough from a pizza shop. On pizza nights, I pick up the dough first thing on the way home from work and let it sit in a bowl in the car while I pick up the kids and drive home. We live in the city and it takes about 45 minutes, so it’s risen nicely while we’ve been on the go.” – E.F.
z If you have stainless steel appliances, you might want to try a simple furniture polish to get those surfaces shiny and smudge free. You can use most any commercial spray-on polish, applied with a clean, lint-free rag. z Peg racks mounted low on the wall near an entranceway can make a great shoe rack. Hang shoes from pegs by the heel. It’s a great way to keep your daily walkers up off the floor! z “Plastic containers with a serving spout can be used for more than fruit juice and sweet tea! Mine fit a full bag of flour or sugar, and if I open a hole in the bag right where the spout is, I can pour what I need out without even removing the top. Admittedly, it works better for sugar than for flour, but it still makes baking goods easy to store.” – T.
...inspiring locals!

National medals for more Dubbo swimmers TEN-YEAR-OLD swimmer Sophie McAnaney featured on the Sports back page of Dubbo Photo News on July 18. This impressive all-rounder along with Maddie Marks from Warren were in serious training for the All Schools Nationals in Melbourne. Both were hard at work in the RSL Indoor pool when we reported her story. Both came home smiling! Sophie, the athletic gymnast who likes hockey and netball as well as lapping up and down the pool had every reason to smile, according to Dubbo Swimtech coach Cath Osborne. “Sophie swam amazingly. She did a six second personal best time in the 100m breaststroke, made the finals and finished fourth in a time of 1:31.12. She followed this up with another personal best in the 50m breaststroke, made the final and finished with another fourth placing. Her time was 40.73 secs.” Sophie was selected to swim the breaststroke in the 10 Years and Under Mixed Gender medley relay. “Her team finished third so Sophie’s enthusiasm and dedication to improving her style and speed earned her a richly-deserved Australian All Schools bronze

13 years and over – to encourage swimmers to stay in the sport longer and have goals – so for her age, she is doing a sensational job.” Maddie Marks travels in from Warren each week to get in the extra pool time. Her parents are more than happy to provide the transport, given her mentor, Rob-
ert “Whiskey” Andriske, drives from Coonamble to tune up his protege. Maddie’s swims in the 12 years events netted bronze in individual medley, fourth in the 100 metres butterfly and sixth in the 200m freestyle. More success built on hard work and determination!
INDOOR CRICKET
RUGBY UNION
Western Stars out-batted by Raptors DUBBO’S Western Stars pulled up one win short in the National Indoor Cricket League finals at Newcastle on the weekend. The Stars were NSW Country champions 10 out of the last 12 years, but with a competition realignment this year, competed against Metro teams McArthur Raptors and the Castle Hill Cougars. In Sunday’s three team playoffs, the Stars downed Castle Hill 119-43 in the preliminary final and faced the No.1 team from MacArthur for the right to represent NSW at the Nationals. The dream of another berth against the best teams in Australia evaporated in the face of a strong performance by the Raptors who set a target of 109. The Stars could manage only 43 in reply, run making difficult in the face of a near perfect bowling display. Stars skipper Steve Skinner was awarded the NICL Player of the Tournament following another year of excellence. Dubbo heads off to the Country finals at Maitland this weekend where they are expected to face another stern test in the Western Stars men’s Indoor Cricket team.

Carney brings Nyngan with Tiger juice in the tank! By GEOFF MANN Photos by MEL POCKNALL CELEBRATED local Justin Carney brought years of experience in the NRL and Premier Leagues and helped fuel the Tigers at Apex Oval on Sunday. Forty years after the western club won a Group 15 title and 30 since they stole one in Group 14, the gold and blacks are on the path towards their first Group 11 first grade premiership. They defeated co-leaders
Wellington a fortnight ago and on Sunday disposed of nominal minor premiers, CYMS. It was the manner of the Tigers’ second half mauling of the normally impregnable green line of defence that had spectators talking after the match, and Nyngan stalwarts beginning to dream. Wellington, CYMS, Parkes and defending premier Forbes will all have something to say about that, but it certainly sets up a spectacular finals series.

Dubbo Turf Club ready to host richest Gold Cup Day By GEOFF MANN DUBBO Turf Club’s progressive committee with the assistance of the AJC and Racing NSW are preparing for the biggest payday ever for owners, trainers and jockeys. The Gold Cup is set for Sunday, September 15, and Club Manager Vince Gordon cannot wait. “This is a Showcase status meeting with a total of $420,000 in prizemoney on the day.

Beau Robinson ❚ OPINION BEN Daley was one of the greats. Great bloke, great team man and great leader. The guy gave it his everything, in every gym session, every cardio session, field session and especially his dedication and his application to his rehab, a somewhat constant for a bloke who had 12 surgeries, and an incident in the gym where he almost scalped himself. Dales was 100 per cent when on the training paddock, especially in opposed and contact sessions. Unlike some others though, this intensity was matched when he took the field during the games. He was one who was never willing to back down, irrespective of who he came up against, and never shirked rolling up the sleeves when the going got tough, willing to take on more than his fair share and help you out should the situation call for it. I recall watching a game last year where he gave a quick short pass just before the line to allow the now ball carrier to get a oneon-one opportunity and make it easier to get over the gain line. He actually did this on several occasions.

ensure it is a success. “In addition to the $100,000 Dubbo City Toyota Gold Cup, we have some other high stakes races, including: $50,000 Picnic Champions Series Final, $50,000 open sprint, $50,000 Country Magic, two $40,000 races and three $30,000 races. Vince added with plenty of enthusiasm, “Two races on the day
will be for country-only trained horses plus the Picnic Series final which is a real boost for those who invest their time and talent into regional NSW clubs.” The Gold Cup Calcutta, which is now in its third year, will be held at the Western Star Hotel on Saturday evening, September 14, from 6pm. “We will also have a number of race day marquees including the Dubbo City Toyota Marquee,
the Ray White Rural Picnic Marquee, The Fashions Deck and the Parade Ring lawn area, and there are openings for others who may be interested in joining us for a fabulous social and sporting event,” Vince added. Keep your eyes glued to Dubbo Photo News in the build-up to the big day out as we profile some of the trainers, jockers and other racing characters ahead of the Cup
Dubbo to host NSW Junior 7-a-Side Championships CLUB Dubbo is proud to host this year’s NSW Junior 7-a-Side Championships on August 17 & 18. Over 120 junior bowlers from across the state will be in attendance, and it is the fourth time this prestigious event will be held west of the mountains. Also in attendance will be parents and supporters, state and zone officials, as well as many local fans, keen to see the state’s best junior bowlers in action. Although it usually takes four greens to run these championships, the size of the Club Dubbo greens is such that there will be no issue in catering for the 24 rinks needed. Head greenkeeper, Darren Connolly, along with his hard-working staff, have the greens and surrounds looking a treat, and they are sure to please the young bowlers over the weekend of competition. There are 16 teams competing from all over the state, with each team comprising a singles player, and a pairs and a fours team. Dubbo is part of the Zone 4 area and they will be fielding three teams, due to the lack of participation of one other zone. The Zone 4 sides are: Zone 4 Green: Singles- Lachlan Thompson (Gulgong). Pairs- James Robinson (West Dubbo), Jordon Thompson (Gulgong) Fours- Dorian Abel (West Dubbo), Cooper McMullen (Dubbo Macquarie), Tom Rich (Mudgee), Tom Bowman (Coonabarabran), Manager (Glenn Morrison) Zone 4 Grey: Singles- Tom Ashley (Trangie), Pairs- Shelby Powell (Nyngan), Reiss Robinson (Orange Country Club) Fours- Harley Sharpe (Molong), Brody Carter (Cudal), Ryan Drew (Bathurst) Justin Walsh (West Dubbo) Manager Steve Robinson (West Dubbo) Plus there will be a few juniors helping out the other Zones: Cooper Dart (West Dubbo), Zac Miller (West Dubbo), Adam Ball (West Dubbo), Sam Rich (Mudgee), Sam Bowman (Coonabarabran).

he wanted not only what was best for the team, but what was best for the team’s performance. Because he was so honest and genuine and respected everyone around him, his opinion was not only valued, but often sought out. This was particularly the case when looking for an insight or perspective on what may have been holding the team or squad back, and how that could be improved. Right up until the straw that broke the camel’s back with his final injury, he was always looking to get better. For me, Ben Daley was the ultimate team man, selfless and willing to help or assist anyone to improve their game – even those who were in competition for his position. He put the team first, even if it was to the detriment of his own career. The fact that he has managed to keep going after 12 surgeries is a true testament to his character, and the resilience and perseverance he has shown has been unmatched by anyone during my rugby career.

Ducks on different ponds WHILE half a dozen intrepid souls braved the cooler waters of Austinmer on the south coast, 15 Ducks plunged into the warm waters of the home pond at the RSL Aquatic Centre last weekend. Publicity Officer Judy Walsh says the new format is proving popular. “We now have five races each week plus some finals and our members are loving it! “There’s certainly not much recovery time between events so it’s a pretty fair bet we’ll all be very fit before too long,” she laughed. Judy reports the pool will be open as normal this Sunday, August 11, and so the club will be doing their regular Sunday swim there. Mark Scullard once again showed his class with a good win in the JP Upholstery August Trophy race. “A big thanks to JP for his continued support of the Ducks. We would welcome our French polisher back in the water again,” Judy challenged. The Ducks were saddened to hear of the passing of Pam Spalding during the week. “Pam was the loving wife of Angus Spalding who passed away in 2017.
