Uber to expand across NSW

RIDE-SHARING service Uber announced this week it plans to “turn on the Uber app” across all of NSW by April. The American-based company said in a statement it had brought forward its plans to bring Uber to regional NSW “to bring domestic and international tourism to the regions”. “Our own data shows domestic and international tourists love Uber. In fact overseas visitors from more than 80 countries regularly use the Uber app to get around Australia – both in cities and further afield,” the statement said. Uber claims the move will help local businesses because tourists would find it easier to visit restaurants, wineries and pubs across regional areas. z What do you think about the Uber move?

VOLUNTEERING

Dubbo army to help rebuild after bushﬁre By JOHN RYAN A SMALL army of Dubbo volunteers is gearing up to build fences in the fire-stricken Adelong district. The Dunns Road fire burnt more than 180,000 hectares, surrounded the town of Batlow, and launched ember attacks on nearby Adelong and Tumut. Fence repair organisation BlazeAid set up a camp in Adelong on January 16 and put out a call for help, and in true Aussie style, a group of volunteers from Dubbo has put their collective hands up to go and assist with the recovery process. Group coordinator Greg O’Brien told Dubbo Photo News that towards the end of March a procession of caravans and camper trailers from Dubbo will wend its way to the BlazeAid Camp at the Adelong Showgrounds. He said the volunteer group is made up of 19 fencers – 18 men plus one lady – and 11 more women who’ll help out in the kitchen or wherever they can in the recovery efforts. Calling themselves the Horizons Volunteer Group, the members candidly admit they’re no spring chickens, with the majority coming from Dubbo’s Horizons Retirement Village. “Many of our group previously helped with the Dunedoo BlazeAid recovery after the Sir Ivan fire in 2017, so we know what we are in for,” Mr O’Brien

said. “When we helped at Dunedoo we weren’t just rebuilding fences, but helping rebuild lives.” The group has pledged to work for an 11-day stretch with many camping in their own caravans and camper trailers, others will bunk at the Royal Hotel or local caravan park. “It will mean early starts each day,” Mr O’Brien said. “While at basecamp the Dubbo crew will be included in a team

that will gather each day for breakfast followed by a mandatory morning muster with instructions for where they will be working that day. “Meals will be provided with help from local community groups,” he said. It’s not just the generosity of the fencing volunteers, Mr O’Brien said local businesses and individuals have been incredibly forthcoming with support. “Langleys have generously do-

nated a bus and the group has to supply drivers and fuel,” Mr O’Brien said. “We are most grateful for the support we have received so far but more is needed in order to achieve all we hope to do. He said sponsors so far included Christie & Hood, Macquarie Club, West Dubbo Rotary Club, Horizons Village Men’s Shed, Horizons Village Social Club, Orana Couriers, and Anne and Andrew Perry.

THREE KIND MICE There are over 29 million pets in Australia, according to the RSPCA, and not surprisingly dogs and cats are the most common. But it looks like young Dubbo bloke Patrick Daly is happy to think outside the animal square when it comes to deciding on a pet, choosing to hang out with his three kind mice instead. The white one with red eyes is ‘Jack’, the white one with black eyes is ‘Zena’, and the two-colour mouse is ‘Climee’. The RSCPA says about 61 per cent of households in Australia own pets, and pet owners are happy to explain why they love having an animal companion. The organisation surveyed Aussies who named their top four beneﬁts of pet ownership as: love, affection and companionship; life being better in general with a pet; the happiness, joy, pleasure and fun a pet brings; and that a pet improves mental health and wellbeing. Australian households spent over $13 billion on pet services and products in 2019. Dog owners spent the most, with an estimated average of $1627 spent per animal each year. We reckon Patrick’s three kind mice would be a lot easier on the wallet! We did ask Patrick what he would choose if he was allowed to have another pet. “A penguin,” he replied.

ISSUE

Dubbo drug court campaign continues By LYDIA PEDRANA MEMBER for Dubbo Dugald Saunders has continued his campaign for a drug court in Dubbo. The push comes after the Special Commission of Inquiry into the Drug Ice report recommended the state government expand the Drug Court of NSW to “priority regional areas”. The Drug Court of NSW is a specialist court that deals with criminal offences in which the defendant has an addiction to illicit substances. Currently, the Drug Court of NSW sits in three locations – Parramatta, Toronto and Sydney – and it takes referrals from cer-

tain Local and District Courts of offenders who are dependent on drugs and eligible for a Drug Court program. After the report was made public last Thursday, Mr Saunders wrote to senior NSW Government ministers advocating for the funding of Dubbo drug court to be included in the next budget. “Discussions have been continuing in relation to the drug court issue, with a more detailed Government response still some time away, just due to the amount of work required to go through each of the 109 recommendations in detail,” Mr Saunders told Dubbo Photo News. “While recommendation 14 in

the report outlines the need for expansion of the Drug Court program, it doesn’t mention locations, which is why I got on the front foot and made representations to the Premier, Treasurer, Attorney General and Health Minister on the day the report was released.” Dubbo Regional Council (DRC) deputy mayor Stephen Lawrence supports Mr Saunders’ push for a drug court in the region but believes a rehabilitation centre should also be prioritised. “I fully support his (Mr Saunders’) approach to the ministers and I fully support that happening. It’s important, of course, to realise that an essential part of a

drug court is a residential rehabilitation and detoxification centre, because generally a person starts the drug court program often with a stint in residential rehabilitation and/or detoxification,” Mr Lawrence said. “That centre is an essential piece of infrastructure that we need in order to have a drug court, so I’m very much hoping that in the coming months Dugald makes an announcement that the state government will fund the rehab detox centre and the drug court.” A long-time supporter of fixing the region’s ice problem, Mr Lawrence said it was now up to the NSW Government to play their

part. “It’s important to note that the Dubbo Regional Council has made an offer of land for a residential rehabilitation centre to be built on, and the federal government, just after the state election last year, committed $3 million to the construction of the centre – and the last of that money is due to come to Dubbo Regional Council in May this year,” he said. “So we’re in a position where local and federal government are playing their role; we’ve got land, we’ve got money for a capital build and what we need now is for the state government to play it’s part by way of agreeing to recurrent funding to the centre.”

NEW HEALTH

EMERGENCY REPORT

Turning to nature for holistic wellbeing

Local mum and qualiﬁed horticulturalist, Rachel Wrigley, took control of her anxiety after she found the side effects of medication greater than the symptoms. PHOTO: DUBBO PHOTO NEWS/EMY LOU

By LYDIA PEDRANA CLEAN eating, going green, selfcare and mindfulness capture the zeitgeist of the health and wellness movement which has risen in popularity over the past few years. People are ditching fast foods for kale salads, soft drink for green juices, a cappuccino for a turmeric latte, morning madness for morning meditation, and conventional medicine for alternative therapies. According to the Global Wellness Institute, the wellness economy is worth $US4.5 trillion. Demographer and social researcher Mark McCrindle believes growth in the wellness space is a result of people taking back control of their own health and wellbeing. “Australians have moved from a focus on illness to wellness, so from fixing up the issues to preventions, and not only that but taking charge of their own health rather than outsourcing it to medical professionals,” he told Dubbo Photo News “There’s been a big shift to-

wards integrating wellness into our lifestyle, rather than having to make wholesale changes, so just things that are simple like substitutions; instead of buying this, I’ll buy a more functional version that is going to help me or serve my wellness, and we don’t go to just the accredited professionals or specialists anymore; people feel more empowered in their own journey.” Local mum and qualified horticulturalist, Rachel Wrigley, took control of her anxiety after she found the side effects of medication greater than the symptoms. Finding that essential oils and getting out in the garden were a better aid for her own anxiousness, Mrs Wrigley is now studying horticultural therapy. According to Therapeutic Horticulture Australia (THA), Therapeutic Horticulture (TH) is a process in which plants and gardening activities are used to improve the body, mind and spirit of people of all ages, backgrounds and abilities. THA also cites the therapy as being used in hospitals, rehabilitation centres, disability services

and aged care facilities. In fact, a recent Japanese study published in the HortTechnology journal revealed the stress-reducing effect of workers gazing intentionally at a plant on their desk for a few minutes. The results showed that many of the workers State-Trait Anxiety Inventory index (STAI) decreased, and 27 per cent of the employees saw a decrease in their resting heart rate. Mrs Wrigley said TH activities involve anything associated with horticulture including general gardening, pressing flowers, making kokedamas, creating mandalas, or simply taking a walk around the Botanic Gardens. “I’ve basically got an urban nursery here in my backyard. I’ve got my own greenhouses, so I propagate my own plants. I was then using the plants myself for my own wellbeing and then a lot of my friends started adapting to it as well,” she said. “It (horticultural therapy) can be for personal development, so for people that might suffer from anxiety or depression, but you

can create activities for a whole realm of people including school aged children, people that are in the juvenile justice system, people who have been in rehabilitation centres, also for the elderly, aged care facilities, there’s a whole spectrum.” Once she finishes her course, Mrs Wrigley plans to run workshops throughout the Central West, arming communities with an additional tool for improving physical, mental and social health. “I just think people are delving back into older style methods I think a lot of people are getting back to personal growth as opposed to just going and asking for prescriptions,” she said. “Everyone has just sort of gone back to the green side of things and everyone loves plants, so the more we can encourage people to get back outside and get that exercise and clear fresh air and Vitamin D, the better everyone is.” z If you are interested in horticultural therapy, contact Rachel Wrigley from Malabar Botanical on 0419 129 516 or malabarbotanical@gmail.com.

Cash register and cigarettes stolen during ram-raid POLICE were appealing for help from the public on Tuesday following an alleged ram-raid at a supermarket on Tamworth Street on Sunday (March 1). Police say that at about 10pm a white Subaru Impreza was stolen from a premises on Douglas Mawson Drive. That vehicle was returned to the premises soon after with significant damage, and a white Toyota Hilux was stolen. “About 11.45pm the stolen Hilux smashed through the front doors of a supermarket on Tamworth Street, Dubbo,” police said in a statement. “While the driver stayed with the car, three people were seen to get out and run into the store where they stole a cash register and a large amount of cigarettes. They all fled the scene prior to the arrival of police.” Police are appealing for anyone with information to contact Dubbo Police Station or Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000.

Inspector Daniel Skelly asked for information from the public about the alleged ram-raid at a Tamworth Street supermarket on Sunday night.

Police charge three men over stolen property DETECTIVES have charged three men – aged 44, 56 and 38 – after seizing large amounts of allegedly stolen property across the region. Officers executed search warrants at four properties in Dubbo, Trangie, Narromine and Wongarbon between Tuesday and Friday last week. Police say they seized a large amount of property, believed to be stolen, including power tools, a generator, a compressor, a quadbike, a car trailer, two air conditioning units, a diesel engine and a caravan.

Maas Group a step local closer to Aust stock exchange listing By JOHN RYAN A CROWD of over 350 attended the very successful charity lunch and soft launch of the soon-to-be publicly listed Maas Group Holdings (ASX code MGH) at Dubbo RSL on Friday, February 28. Martin Cook has been involved with the Men of League Foundation since it kicked off, taking up the reigns as the inaugural CEO. Since he moved back to Dubbo, he’s worked tirelessly on local fundraising events and said the soft launch of the IPO of Maas Group Holdings being rolled into a charity event was a great way for companies to do business. “It was a fantastic afternoon celebrating the success of MAAS Group and the exciting opportunity for locals to be able to be part of the continuing success by buying shares in the upcoming IPO,” Mr Cook said. “It was great to hear Wes Maas’ story and how his business has grown from a loan he took out to buy a bobcat in 2002 to what it is today, providing over

500 jobs. “It’s amazing how Wes has created this great team around him that starts with his wife Emma, his left and right hand men are his best mates from high school – Damien Porter and Dominic Wilson – and he has recently brought in JLE Electrical, his brother-in-law Josh Large’s business,” he said. Mr Cook said the generosity shown by those in attendance was fantastic, with approximately $40,000 raised from the live and silent auctions for two great local charities, Give Me Five For Kids and the Pink Angels, as well as St Johns and Dubbo CYMS. “Wes generously donated a large bulk of the auction items up for grabs and Jess Brewer and Nick Sykes from Dubbo CYMS did a wonderful job to ensure the day was such a fantastic success.” Mr Cook interviewed special guest Wayne Bennett as part of the proceedings and said it was an eye-opener for the crowd. “Wayne Bennett’s private persona on

camera is so different to the inspirational man who gave insight into what has made him the greatest coach of all time,” Mr Cook said. “We heard stories about his playing days that saw him represent Australia and Queensland and how he has remained so successful in the cutthroat world for rugby league, coaching for 45 years – an outstanding achievement. “Wayne explained how he manages different personalities into a successful team. He says there are essentially four character types that he titles ‘Feelers’, ‘Thinkers, ‘Enforcers’ and ‘Mozzies’.” Wes Maas credits Wayne for helping him with staff management. “After seeing Wayne at a luncheon in Newcastle in 2012, Wes has implemented Wayne’s theories on psychology into his human resources strategy,” Mr Cook said. Comedian Vince Sorrenti “did a great job as MC, keeping the crowd of over 350 entertained”, Mr Cook added. The IPO is set for June.

ster, New zoo cafe to open by Ea bers m should help boost visitor nu

By LYDIA PEDRANA In a week that the head of Tourism Australia revealed international tourist bookings in Australia have decreased 35 per cent since December, residents in the Dubbo region are being encouraged to help make up for the shortfall by visiting local tourist attractions such as Taronga Western Plains Zoo. Tourism Australia’s managing director Phillipa Harrison told a conference in Melbourne that coronavirus was going to have a bigger impact than drought and bushﬁre “by far”, The Melbourne Age reported. Member for Dubbo Dugald Saunders has urged locals not to take Taronga Western Plains Zoo (TWPZ) for granted. Mr Saunders said there’s no

IMAGE: TWPZ better time to enjoy the iconic attractions we have in our own backyard, particularly with Coronavirus threatening international travel. “Taronga Western Plains Zoo is the biggest tourist attraction we have in the region, and it is no secret that drought and bushﬁres have impacted on visitation, particularly over the summer holiday period,” he told Dubbo Photo News. “But we’ve seen the success of campaigns like ‘Buy Regional’ and ‘Buy From The Bush’, and I continue to push our entire region as a fantastic domestic tourist destination every single chance I get.

“There’s also more we can do as locals. I think sometimes, because we have some awesome destinations on our doorstep, we take them for granted.” Mr Saunders also revealed that the zoo’s new Waterhole Café and water play area, funded by the NSW Government and Taronga Conversation Society Australia, will be open in time for Easter. The $10.2 million redevelopment of the current kiosk located halfway around the zoo circuit will be transformed into a 150seat alfresco dining café and an overwater deck where guests can dine with the meerkats and star

tortoise. There will also be an African themed water play area for children featuring hippo and elephant sculptures and automated jets and misting systems. Mr Saunders also promised the State Government would continue to show its support for the zoo, hinting at an investment announcement later in the year. “The NSW Government is a major supporter of Taronga Western Plains Zoo through the ongoing investment of millions of dollars on the overall ‘visitor experience’, and I am hopeful there will be more good news coming in this year’s NSW State Budget.”

Petition calls for Councillor to resign over ‘racist’ email By LYDIA PEDRANA A PETITION calling for Kevin Parker to resign from his role at Dubbo Regional Council (DRC) has emerged after the National Party councillor sent a racist ‘joke’ from his Bank of Queensland (BOQ) email account which contained derogatory comments about Indigenous Australians. Australia’s National Indigenous Television network (NITV) first reported on the email last Wednesday night. Mr Parker was then suspended from his job as a BOQ branch manager last Thursday. He was also being investigated for breaching the council code of conduct. A petition page on change.org was started by the Stop The River Street Bridge coalition, calling for Cr Parker’s resignation from Council, and had 483 signatures at the time of writing. Cr Parker and the ‘Stop The River Street Bridge’ group have been at odds for some time – he has publicly stated his support for the new bridge project. Tubba-gah (Maing) elder Coral Peckham signed the petition citing she felt “overwhelmed” and “hurt” by the contents of Mr Parker’s email which replaced the names of Snow White’s seven dwarves with offensive stereotypes about Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples. “You’ve got to understand that Aboriginal people have had racist comments forever, but it’s still alive well and good in our community. It disappoints me that all the good work that’s been done within our community, and with Council, that that man was amongst the community and he should be exposed and made resign from his

position,” Mrs Peckham told Dubbo Photo News. “The thing that concerned me most was some of the youth that are doing really wonderful work within our community, how they must be feeling with something like that. “I’m feeling for the youth, I’m feeling for our elders, and I’m disgusted... and that’s why I signed it (the petition).” Deputy mayor Stephen Lawrence said he was “appalled” by the email and has announced he will put forward a motion at the March 23 Council meeting highlighting the lack of Aboriginal council representation and electoral participation. “The electoral commission has recognised through research that Aboriginal people are enrolled to vote at a disproportionately low level,” Mr Lawrence said. “This is something that I think needs to be dealt with, and in the aftermath of this unpleasant and unfortunate scandal involving Kevin Parker, I think it would be appropriate if Council responds in a practical and a useful way (by saying) ‘we will respond to this by doing everything that we can do to make sure Aboriginal people are participating in the electoral system’.” From the outset, Mayor Ben Shields made it clear that Mr Parker’s email “in no way aligns with the values of myself or Dubbo Regional Council”. Asked whether Mr Parker would be sacked from Council, Cr Shields said: “Independent reviewers will determine what happens with the Code of Conduct.” Mr Parker was contacted by Dubbo Photo News on Tuesday for a response, but was unable to comment while BOQ investigations were underway.

ADVERTORIAL

Well-travelled chiropractor settles in Dubbo Dr Dominic Cumming is th the newest face at Carter Chiropractic. He joins the clinic having completed a Master’s degree in Chiropractic Studies at Macquarie University in Sydney. Choosing a tree change in his professional career is all thanks to advice the Central Coast native received from his parents. “My dad did a similar thing when he started out in his career and moved to Coonamble. He loved the experience, so he recommended I do the same,” Dominic said. Dominic is no stranger to visiting new places, with a long list of overseas adventures including to the USA for a soccer sports scholarship and Japan to work in a clinic as a massage therapist. “My uncle who is a chiropractor was involved in the foundation of Hands on Health in Australia, and I recently came back from a couple of weeks in India volunteering in a Hands on India Chiropractic Clinic there,” he said. Dominic worked in impoverished village communities assisting with the treatment of a variety of conditions. “Many people had old injuries that had never been treated before. There were a lot of people with neck issues from carrying heavy loads on their heads. “What struck me though was how everyone just smiled the whole time. They were happy. It affirmed for me that less can be more in life.” These personal experiences have already demonstrated the broader benefits of chiropractic in promoting health and well-being which motivates and inspires Dominic to be the best he can be as a chiropractor caring for the community. He’s keen to meet the Dubbo community and is particularly interested in helping others to get moving – especially after an injury – whether they’re office workers, manual labourers, retirees or athletes. Raised to enjoy an outdoor lifestyle rich in sports, he’s leading by example and has already signed up to play in Dubbo’s Ultimate Frisbee comp.

ANIMAL CARE

What to do with injured wildlife By LYDIA PEDRANA THIS Bearded Dragon is just one of the 600 injured wildlife cases presented to the Taronga Western Plains Zoo’s Wildlife Hospital in the past year. With many of these animals found by members of the community, it is important people understand how best to handle vulnerable animals, should they find themselves in such a situation. TWPZ vet nurse Jo Milgate said the zoo’s wildlife hospital accepts all injured wildlife including mammals, marsupials, reptiles and birds. In fact, many are brought to the zoo hospital from areas across NSW and referred from other veterinary hospitals. “Native animals can be left at the ticketing desk at the zoo between 9am and 4pm, outside of these hours it is best to contact WIRES,” she said. “If it is safe to do so, contain it This bearded dragon is in the caring arms of Vet Nurse Jo Milgate.

Dry conditions take toll on koalas, too THE bearded dragon in our main story is one of many animals being cared for at the Taronga Western Plains Zoo Wildlife Hospital. The zoo revealed last week that the ongoing drought is also continuing to impact the region’s koala population. Since November 2019, its Wildlife Hospital has administered veterinary treatment to 22 koalas. The main health issues affecting the species include starvation, dehydration, heat stress, and chlamydia, which spreads fast among koala populations.

What to do if you find injured wildlife: 1. If safe, contain the animal in a covered box and leave in a dark, quiet place while waiting for a rescuer or transporting to a licensed wildlife rehabilitator or vet 2. Between 9am and 4pm, take the animal to the zoo ticketing desk 3. After hours, contact WIRES 4. Do not attempt to handle bats, adult kangaroos or venomous reptiles

“The number of koalas we are seeing at present is unprecedented. We have seen more koalas through our Wildlife Service in the past three months than we would normally see in a year,” said senior veterinarian, Dr Benn Bryant, pictured above giving a drink of water to a koala. Koalas rely on the fresh tips or new growth of eucalypt leaves and because there has been little rainfall recently, the animals are travelling further looking for food sources.

GLOBAL MOVEMENT

Make the change you want to see This month's Film and Food Night will feature “Inhabit: A Permaculture Perspective” and will be held on Saturday, March 21, from 6pm at the Salvation Army Hall in Gipps St. Permaculture is a means of production using the patterns and features observed in natural ecosystems. Coincidentally, the Transition movement global founder was a permaculture teacher.

By NATALIE LEWIS AS Transition Dubbo moves into its second year in the city, founder Peter Duggan is hopeful that it is bringing positive change. Globally, the movement dedicated to rebuilding the planet started in the town of Totnes, UK in 2006. Mr Duggan said there are now thousands of Transition groups around the world and their focus is on leading a more sustainable, eco-friendly lifestyle. “All the groups have very different intentions and they do different things,” Mr Duggan told Dubbo Photo News. He was part of Transition Bondi and moved to Dubbo five years ago. “I decided to start it myself and launched it at the Sustainability Expo in September.” To get the ball rolling, Mr Duggan has hosted food and film nights, visits to community gardens, a bike tour of shops which supply local produce, and composting workshops. “Locally, it is just trying to help industry and the community towards a more sustainable way of life.” So far, there has been strong interest in the concept and Mr Duggan said it’s a good way to meet new people and do something positive for the planet. “It’s just so important. It’s about awareness, having a chat with someone, skilling people up. “In society, everyone is start-

But the more confident you are the more you can rely less on supermarkets, and start growing vegetables and swap them in the community rather than relying on shopping centres where the food comes from all over the world.

“You are eating food from a few streets away, reducing food miles.” Mr Duggan believes that ‘business as usual is creating problems’. “It’s about people doing things at the local level. Being the change you want to be in the world.” Mr Duggan said it might seem like your action is a drop in the ocean but groups like this make sense in regional towns.

“It’s about making new habits and forming relationships with people. Over time you will have a better relationship with the earth and with your community. We all want to do our bit but we really want for someone to help us make the transition. z For more information visit transitionnetwork.org, and locally look for transitiondubbo on social media.

Greyhound community shrugs off canine coronavirus outbreak Dubbo club president says he has “no concerns” about the virus reaching Dubbo By LYDIA PEDRANA GREYHOUND racing in Dubbo will continue as normal despite an outbreak of the canine coronavirus. The illness has caused a greyhound kennel in Geelong to close down and there are two confirmed cases in the NSW Northern Rivers region. As a result, Greyhound Racing Victoria has called for all greyhounds arriving into Victoria to be isolated to prevent further spread. But president of the Dubbo Greyhound Racing Club, Shayne Stiff, said he has “no concerns” about the virus reaching Dubbo and local races will go ahead as planned. “Everyone is overreacting because of the human

one, but it’s been around in dogs for 30 or 40 years, it’s not a new strain, it’s nothing real bad, it’s just a virus that comes around and it’s back around again,” he told Dubbo Photo News. “It is nothing to panic about, it is nothing to get overreactive about, it doesn’t hurt the dogs, it doesn’t kill the dogs, as long as they are treated with the right antibiotics.” According to the Greyhound Welfare and Integrity Commission (GWIC), canine coronaviruses are commonly found in dogs and are in no way related to the current coronavirus COVID-19 which is causing respiratory illness in humans around the world. While it is highly contagious, the virus can spread rapidly between greyhounds though direct

contact with faeces or contaminated material. Unlike COVID-19, canine coronavirus causes gastroenteritis, or inflammation of the stomach and intestines. Symptoms can include the loss of appetite, diarrhoea, vomiting, lack of energy and possible high temperatures. The illness can last between two to 14 days, but often resolves within three days. GWIC chief veterinarian officer, Dr Michelle Ledger, said they are monitoring the situation closely. “The Commission is appealing to all greyhound trainers to be vigilant in monitoring the health of their greyhounds, especially following racing in the Northern Rivers and in Queensland,” Dr Ledg-

er said. “Continue to isolate any infected and in-contact greyhounds for 10 to 14 days and scratch these greyhounds from any trials or races.” For greyhounds participating in races, the GWIC advises the practice of good hygiene methods including disinfection of all trailers and transport, boots, bedding, muzzles, leads and other equipment that may pose a risk of infection to other greyhounds. Local veterinarian Dr Ross Pedrana reminded dog owners that the canine coronavirus isn’t something to panic about, and that there is a vaccine to protect against it. “We generally use it (the vaccine) as our normal protocol for the ma-

jority of the vaccinations for dogs that are going to be cohabiting or out with other dogs in a more free-ranging situation, like greyhounds, pound pups, farm dogs and dogs that are going to be out and about,” he said. “For the ones that are just going to be kept in a backyard, it’s not that critical because it’s probably not going to come into contact with a lot of other dogs.” Dr Pedrana said the only way to confirm canine coronavirus is through laboratory testing, and treatment would include “intravenous fluid therapy and good nursing, just like any other gastroenteritis”.

Local organisations encouraged to apply for NAIDOC Week grants

Veteran Narromine ﬁreys’ poignant catch-up for an old mate By JOHN RYAN FORMER Narromine Firefighters with a combined total of 111 years of service to Fire and Rescue NSW met up for morning tea at Narromine Hospital last week. Sadly, a few days later, the colleague they organised the catch-up for passed away. Former Narromine firefighter Dennis Jolliffe, who gave 22 years of service, had been a patient in Narromine Hospital, and so some of his former colleagues decided it would be nice for the former fire-fighters to meet up for a cuppa. Those colleagues included former Narromine Fire Brigade Captain Robert Hawkins

AFSM, who served for 40 years, and former deputy captain Bob Treseder, who is the longest-serving ever Narromine Fire Brigade member with 47 years’ service. Current captain Ewen Jones drove the Narromine Fire Brigade fire truck to the hospital so the former fireys, including Mr Jolliffe, could check it out. All those involved were saddened to hear of Mr Jolliffe’s death a few days later. This is such an important part of what local communities are meant to be all about, and what a great gesture it was for Mr Jolliffe.

March 5-11, 2020 Dubbo Photo News IN BRIEF

Is the motorcyclist our most economically valuable regional road tourist? LAST year’s inaugural Dubbo Motor Bike Rally was an incredible success that took the city by storm. At the height of the worst drought in memory, more than 1500 motorcycle enthusiasts converged on Dubbo from across the state and beyond to inject a much needed and large amount of cash into local businesses. That’s without mentioning the towns along the way where petrol, food, coffee and accommodation were purchased. The rally organising committee, headed up by former police superintendent Stan Single, is convinced this event can grow to become one of the highlights of the local calendar. He spoke to Dubbo Photo News about the importance of encouraging tourism to the area. OPINION by STAN SINGLE PRESIDENT, DUBBO MOTOR BIKE RALLY INC. WHILE the promotion of the economic value of road tourists in caravans, motorhomes and family cars is pursued by many regional centres, the motorcycling tourist is generally not. The recent RMS vehicle census reveals that motorbike registrations in Australia is burgeoning towards one million. Over the past 20 years, in NSW alone, bike ownership has substantially increased from 87,201 in 2000 to 229,078 in 2019 – in excess of a 150 per cent increase. Bike registrations include both male and female riders, with 50 per cent of owners over 40 years of age. Compare that to caravans, campers and mobile homes fitted with long-range fuel tanks allowing several hundred-kilometre range before refill, the motorcyclists on a common touring bike or cruiser have a fuel range of 200 to 300 kilometres. This means it is mandatory to stop more frequently than other vehicles to re-fuel. The travelling portable home can carry days or even weeks of stored food, both refrigerated perishable and non-perishable.

Gig State project promises faster, more reliable internet DUBBO will be one of seven regional communities to benefit from the NSW Government’s $100 million Gig State project. Businesses and communities in Dubbo, Wagga Wagga, Parkes, a corridor west to Cobar, as well as a fibre solution for residents in Sutton, Bywong and Wamboin will see new tnetwork infrastructure and increased internet capacity promising a faster and more reliable service to the regions. “With technology a central part of our everyday lives, this represents an incredible opportunity and will help to boost growth and business opportunities for Dubbo and communities across the region,” Member for Dubbo Dugald Saunders said. The Gig State project and Regional Digital Connectivity program is part of the $4.2 billion Snowy Hydro Legacy Fund

These homes are equipped with a bed, toilet, shower, modern kitchen and a TV, and with their independent electrical technology have no need to pay for a commercial camping site. Alternatively, a motorbike rider only carries what can fit on the bike. This includes essentials such as wet weather kit, toiletries and minimal clothing. In the majority, they will arrive at a pre-determined destination and into pre-booked accommodation, then relax enjoying the camaraderie over a few refreshments, dinner and more refreshments. Next morning, it’s breakfast, buy a T-shirt, fuel up and hit the

road again. Regardless of the length of the ride or the destination, it’s all about the ride. Generally, it is not uncommon for planned road trips to consist of groups of between two and 20 bike riders or even more. The essential breaks for motorbike riders on these trips are for coffee, lunch and fuel, and often just to give your seat a rest. Generally, on a 500-kilometre trip, riders may stop at least three times during the trip, spending money at each stop. At the end of the day, with accommodation, fuel, food and drink, the average daily expenditure per rider is generally around $300. This financial benefit was evident for Dubbo as a result of the 2019 Inaugural Dubbo Motor Bike Rally held Saturday May 11, 2019. Over 1500 motorbikes arrived in Dubbo from Australia wide, including Victoria, South Australia and Queensland, some arriving in town on Thursday and departing on Monday. The business economy in Dubbo alone saw an increased injection of $784,000 in electronic transactions over this weekend. Cash transactions have not been formally measured. How many other regional

towns benefited over and above their normal trade with these riders taking their mandatory breaks whilst travelling both to and from the Dubbo Rally? On May 2, 2020, and building on the success of 2019, the second annual Dubbo Motor Bike Rally is gaining momentum with solid indications there will be a greater patronage. This year, in the aftermath of the disastrous bushfires, riders attending the Dubbo Rally, particularly from anywhere along the east coast from southern Queensland to Victoria, will unavoidably pass through bushfire-ravaged communities and, in any other direction, drought-affected communities. Therefore, as I have described above, it can be guaranteed they will take their mandatory stops in these struggling communities spending money. Multiply these mandatory stops by several hundred bikes and you will have a very healthy boost to the visitor economies. Motorcyclists are unique in that they must stop regularly, sharing their travel expenditure more frequently than other road users to a greater number of communities. In this regard, motorcyclists are our most economically valuable regional road tourists.

THE Outback Car Trek which supports the Royal Flying Doctor Service will launch its 31st trek at Bondi on Wednesday, March 11. A display of trek cars will be positioned at the Bondi Pavilion. The 2020 trek will travel through Cobar and other points in remote NSW and Queensland. Trekkers and RFDS staff will come together to raise awareness of the disadvantages that people living in rural and remote Australia face when trying to access simple medical treatment and to celebrate what the RFDS is doing to bridge the gap. The Outback Trek is an event for older 2WD cars, and all of the cars are specially prepared to cope with the fun of outback and remote dirt road driving. Entries are still open.

In Corrective Services you have to be ﬁrm but fair, officer says By JOHN RYAN DONNA DAVY is a well-known face around the Dubbo Courthouse, and it’s no wonder given she’s been in the job for more than three decades. Female corrective officers made up just a small percentage of the industry when she joined up 32 years ago, and she’s seen big changes in the system since she first started. She told Dubbo Photo News a lively sense of humour has played a big part in her success over the years, joining Corrective Services on October 3, 1988. “My initial training was conducted at Bathurst Jail and consisted of 12 weeks, I was one of 15 in the class, four of us were female,” Ms Davy said. “As of today only four of the class remains serving – two females and two males. “On completion of training I was assigned to Kirkconnell Afforestation Camp, which is located at Sunny Corner between Bathurst and Lithgow,” she said. Lithgow Jail had yet to be built but it was in the pipeline, eventually opening in 1990. In 1991 she transferred to Sydney to take up a position at John Morony Correctional Centre. “It was the only jail on site but that has since changed with a female centre Dillwynia and Outer Metropolitan Multi-Purpose Correctional Centre (OMMPCC),” she said. “In July 1995 I won a position as a First Class Correctional Officer for the new Court Escort Security Unit (CESU) at the Dubbo Police cells,” Ms Davy explained, and she’s now been part of that team for 25 years. It was 1995 when Corrective Services embraced a new beginning of escorting prisoners to courts and correctional centres to free-up police to get them back on the beat. In many cases, two police and a vehicle could be tied up all day transporting a prisoner from Walgett to Dubbo Court, which placed a huge strain on limited country police resources. Ms Davy said her first encounter with Dubbo police was when Sergeant John Wright greeted her with the comment “thank God you guys are here”. “Dubbo Police welcomed us with open arms – our two blues have been a team ever since,” Ms Davy said. “It was a great feeling knowing we could assist by

getting police back on the beat. “Dubbo is a hub and a major drop point for custodies from surrounding out-stations,” she said. Her unit covers the central west as far as Broken Hill, Bourke and Walgett as well as the Dubbo city area. The unit’s initial staffing com-

plement was nine correctional officers but due to the workload and areas now covered, that’s grown to a staffing level of 22, which includes the Aboriginal Community Liaison Officer (ACLO). Ms Davy says her ethos at work is to be compassionate, but not an easy target or soft touch – and

that’s a difficult line to tread. “I believe in this line of work, you have to be firm but fair – an old cliché that I was taught at training school which I still practice to this day,” Ms Davy said. “You have to be security conscious and assertive at all times, there is no time for complacency.” She said there are a lot more females in this line of work today than ever before, and that the industry has changed from being a male-dominated workplace. “Back then it was tough to get approval as a female but if you did your job properly, listened and learned, you were OK. I have seen some crazy and funny things over the years,” Ms Davy said. “I have had the opportunity to work alongside some wonderful officers who were not only colleagues but amazing friends. I am a Senior Correctional Officer, I value my staff, and to me they are a part of my family. “A lot have retired, some have since passed on, but it is these people who have

made my years at Corrective Services well worthwhile. The most difficult thing to endure is losing one of your own.” Over the years she’s also taken up opportunities to work in other locations such as Bathurst CESU and Sentence Administration at both Lithgow and Wellington. She also helped recruit for the department in Far Western NSW which she said she enjoyed immensely, and recently had the opportunity go further afield, working on an international prisoner transfer. “You’re always learning and things change so it’s never boring and you don’t know what’s going to happen from one second to another,” Ms Davy said. “Dubbo CESU was important in 1995 and is still to this day – we’re as busy as the first day on duty, the only real change is having a correctional centre closer for drop-offs and pick-ups. “My advice to anyone who is thinking of becoming a correctional officer is to have good communication skills, be resilient and have a good sense of humour – that keeps you sane,” she said.

MATT Rendell has been building street machines for years, but his current build attracted plenty of excitement when it was trailered in to the recent Stand With Australia car show that was raising money for local Rural Fire Service brigades and animals affected by the bushfires across the state. His veteran English Ford Zephyr looks like nothing that ever rolled off a factory floor, anywhere in the world, and he couldn’t be happier. “I wanted to go with something that’s a mix of the European and American styles, particularly with the copper. You’ll notice a lot of copper and brass, it’s got a bit of a steampunk feel but also a bit of rockabilly hotrod feel,” Mr Rendell told Dubbo Photo News. “For years I’ve built a tonne of XY Falcons and been into the glossy, quick cars, and I just really wanted to do something different with the steampunk look and reintroduce the old hotrod style. “I’ve got a purple GT Falcon over the other side of the show – this one is getting so much interest and it’s cost us far less than that one’s worth,” he said. Spectators were crowding around the car, keen to discuss how such a radical looking unit came about.

Darren Rowley said he was super impressed. “She’s a weapon! It’d be awesome to see it drive, a bit of imagination’s gone into that build, for sure,” Mr Rowley said. His mate Lachlan Anning agreed, liking in particular the vintage 1960s dragster pushbike in matching colours strapped to the Zephyr’s roof rack. “It’s a nice look, it’s something different, the bike on the roof rack’s nice, I’d heard about the old banana seat bikes so it’s different to see one,” Mr Anning said. Eighteen months ago Matt was heavily involved in raising $75,000 for the Feed a Farmer’s Family campaign and says he feels he always has to do his part when it comes to assisting people in strife. “I found out the guys were running this appeal and I thought I’ll have to help, I’m always going to back that sort of thing,” Mr Rendell said. “Always jump on board... and help people who are doing good things. I think it’s really important to back these people running community events and fundraisers and the. “For anyone feeling creative, let it all come out and build a car like this, just do it, it doesn’t have to have a fancy paint job these days,” he said.

DROUGHT RELIEF

35,000 relief reasons to celebrate By YVETTE AUBUSSON-FOLEY FARMERS in the Dubbo region will benefit from a generous $35,000 donation collected from hungry and thirsty members and guests who’ve been eating out at the Dubbo RSL Memorial Club throughout December and January. One dollar from every main meal at the Sunset Bistro, or glass of Ironjack beer, purchased between December 1, 2019, and January 31, 2020, were dropped into the Club’s drought relief kitty. Rural Finance Counselling Service Central West and Clubs NSW Litres for the Land will receive and distribute the funds to benefit those in need. “The recent rain doesn’t make an awful lot of difference to a farmer who sold all his stock and can’t take advantage of the grass that growing. There’ll be no income,” Rural Financial Counselling Service Central West CEO Jeff Caldbeck said. “It’s just the same as the crop farmer who hasn’t had a crop in three or four years and can’t buy seed because they’re already maxed out at the bank. “We tend to give vouchers so they can buy local and get

what they need. It will go to bills, food and fuel, that sort of thing,” he said. Dubbo RSL Memorial Club set a goal to raise funds for drought relief assistance, achieving the outstanding amount with help from members and guests. Dubbo RSL Memorial Club general manager Gus Lico says the result reinforces their strength and support within

the community, and thanks everyone who supported the project – in particular business partner Lion Nathan. z Dubbo RSL Memorial Day is presenting a dinner on Saturday, March 7, to mark International Women’s Day with all proﬁts from the raffle and ticket sales going to the Rural Finance Counselling Service Central West to support ladies on the land. Tickets available from 123tix.

Lion Beer Australia sales executive Craig Willocks and Dubbo RSL Club Sunset Bistro chef Lorisha Keen hand over a drought relief cheque for $20,000 to Jeff Caldbeck, CEO of Rural Financial Counselling Service Central West, which will share a total of $35,000 raised with Clubs NSW’s Litres for the Land program.

NEWS OPINION AND ANALYSIS by JOHN RYAN

Help request after car torched TASH Willmott is hoping locals can help her or police with any information as to who torched her car in Mansour Street late last Friday night, February 28. So far she’s heard two males and a car could have been involved in the arson attack, which happened between the hours of 8.30 and 10.30pm. People work hard to get a car and then look after it, so it sucks when your daily transport is wantonly destroyed by people who just don’t seem to care.

Fodder theft arrest I’M a big fan of the resources being put into rural crime across the state and believe having dedicated police just on this job has been a tremendous boost for regional communities and farmers. And it’s given a shot in the arm to local cops who can now gain confidence that these more isolated and complex investigations can be brought to a successful conclusion by teamwork, cooperation and information-sharing across far flung police districts. The latest victory is close to home, with a 29-year-old Gilgandra man charged with fodder-related theft valued at approximately $3000. In early July 2019 police attached to Murrumbidgee Police District received a report relating to the theft of 41 bales of rice straw. Arrangements were made for the 29-year-old to collect the bales of straw from a Leeton property, and deliver them to a Deer Vale address west of Dorrigo in the Coffs-Clarence Police District. The accused allegedly travelled to the Leeton address on May 30 in a Freightliner Argosy Prime Mover towing a flat deck semi-trailer and collected the fodder. Police will allege that the rice straw was collected by the man and he never delivered it to the Deer Vale address. On June 28 last year the Freightliner Agrosy Prime Mover was repossessed west of Warwick in Queensland for matters not related to this police investigation. Over the following months significant investigations took place which resulted in the man being charged on February 21 by of-

ficers attached to Gilgandra Police Station. The accused is set to appear at Griffith Local Court on April 15 after being charged with Larceny as a Bailee. The straw has not been located. If you have any information about rural crimes please contact your local police or Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000.

Western fatality A MAN has died following a single-vehicle crash on The Bogan Way near Albert in the early hours of Saturday morning, February 29. On arrival NSW Ambulance paramedics located the body of a man near the Toyota Landcruiser – officers from Central West Police District attended the scene and an investigation was commenced. Initial inquiries indicate the 29-year-old man was ejected from the vehicle when it left the roadway, collided with an embankment and rolled a number of times between 1.30am and 3.30am. Detectives are investigating the circumstances surrounding the crash and are appealing for motorists who were travelling on The Bogan Way on that morning and saw the white Landcruiser to contact police.

Investigators call for help NSW Police are seeking the identity of a female named Dianne or Dianna who had a 21st birthday party in Dubbo on April 22-23 back in 1994. Officers are also seeking the names of any person who completed the 1574 Certificate in Rural Operations at TAFE NSW Dubbo in 1993/1994. Police are asking people to as-

sist by sharing the Facebook post about this matter on the Orana Mid-Western Police District page to help ensure it reaches as many people as possible across the state and beyond. If anyone has information, please contact the Crime Co-ordinator at Dubbo Police on 6883 1599 or contact Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000. Information can also be provided confidentially via the Crime Stoppers online reporting page at nsw.crimestoppers.com.au.

Car park fall leads to fatal results POLICE are appealing for information or dashcam vision after a man died following a fall in a Mudgee carpark last week. About 10am on Wednesday, February 26, an 80-year-old man tripped over an unknown object in a shopping centre carpark on Mudgee’s Church Street, suffering an injury to his head and shoulder. He was taken to Mudgee District Hospital before being airlifted to Royal Prince Alfred Hospital, where he later died. Officers from Orana-Mid Western Police District were notified and commenced an investigation. Anyone who may have been in the carpark before 10am on Wednesday and has information is urged to contact Mudgee Police Station on 02 6372 8599 or Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000.

Warranted woman POLICE are appealing for public assistance to locate a woman wanted by virtue of an outstanding warrant for fraud offences in the Central West. 44-year-old Rebecca Layton is

JASON Lane is another person police are looking for by virtue of an outstanding warrant for fraud offences in the Central West. The 46-year-old is described as having Caucasian appearance, about 180cm tall with a thin build, brown hair with a beard and blue eyes. He is known to frequent Dubbo and the greater western Sydney area. Anyone who sees Jason Lane is advised not to approach him but to contact Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000.

Threatening behaviour POLICE are investigating after two men threatened a woman in her Parkes home on February 26. Police say a 29-year-old woman woke about 3.20am to find two men in her house on Ebelina Crescent. The woman told police the men threatened her and demanded property and cash. The two alleged perpetrators left the house with several items and met a third man in the driveway. A passer-by saw the three men leaving the premises and gave chase but they fled in a light-coloured sedan. The woman was not injured. Officers from Central West Police District attended and have commenced an investigation. The men were described only as having dark hair, a thin build and at the time they were wearing long-sleeved tops and long pants. As inquiries continue, any witnesses or any motorists who may have been in the area and have CCTV or dashcam vision, are urged to come forward.

Cops injured during arrest THREE police officers have been injured during the arrest of two men at Lake Cargelligo. Following inquiries, officers from Central West Police District attended a home in Lorne Street on February 26 looking for a bloke

with outstanding warrants. Police will allege the man attempted to avoid arrest, climbing through a back window and running through the backyards of nearby properties. Officers were involved in a struggle with the 46-year-old man when it’s alleged a group of men intervened. During the incident, three officers suffered minor injuries including bruising and muscle strains. The 46-year-old man was arrested and taken to Lake Cargelligo Police Station where he was charged with resist or hinder police officer in the execution of duty, three counts of enter enclosed land not prescribed premises without law, and three outstanding warrants. He was refused bail to face Parkes Local Court. A 37-year-old man was also arrested and charged with resist or hinder police officer in the execution of duty. He was granted bail to face Lake Cargelligo Local Court on April 8.

Dangerous rider arrested and charged MUDGEE Police were patrolling Gladstone Street about 2.20pm on February 25 when they attempted to stop a male riding a blue coloured motorcycle for a breath test. Instead of pulling over, police allege the rider accelerated away before crossing onto the incorrect side of the road, mounting the gutter and riding through a pedestrian walkway. Police caught up with the motorbike in Denison Street at which point he rode into Menchin Street and then across the sports oval and into Lang Street. Police immediately went to a house in Lang Street and arrested a 22-year-old Mudgee man in the backyard. He was taken to Mudgee Police Station where it was discovered the man was disqualified from driving and the motorcycle was unregistered. He was charged with Driving in a Manner Dangerous, Police Pursuit, Use Unregistered and Uninsured Vehicle, Drive During Disqualification Period and Fail to Stop When Signalled. The man was given strict bail conditions to appear at Mudgee Local Court on March 18. z Send your news tips to john.ryan@panscott.com.au or 0429 452 245 txt is best

AUTHOR

Family tree inspires writer’s latest work When Nicole Alexander’s first book was a bestseller, it paved the way for her success as an author. She released her tenth novel The Cedar Tree this week, and told NATALIE LEWIS about how closely entwined her writing career is with her own family history. NICOLE Alexander worked in fashion and finance before making the transition into professional writing. At the time, she wrote newspaper, genealogy and travel articles, poetry and short stories. “I started writing in my spare time in my early 20s and completed my first full length contemporary fiction manuscript in my mid-20s, which I subsequently binned,” she says matter of factly. After returning to her rural roots in north-west NSW in the late 1990s, she knuckled down to what would become her debut novel, The Bark Cutters. Ms Alexander had previously struggled to find the time and space to write. But in the beautiful surroundings of her beloved bush, creativity blossomed. The release of that book and its subsequent success became the foundation of a writing career which has now included international publishing, industry awards and a strong fan base. “I was very fortunate with The Bark Cutters,” Ms Alexander explained. “The novel became a bestseller, was shortlisted for an Australian book industry award and subsequently went to auction in Germany where two publishing houses vied for the rights to translate the work. “That success gave me a glimpse of what might be possible and gave me the confidence to pursue writing as a career,” she told Dubbo Photo News. Confidence is everything in the highly competitive world of book publishing but determination is also a key factor. Most days for Ms Alexander are spent either researching, writing or promoting her latest work. “If I’m in the research, pre-writing stage, there will be months when I’m working on the story outline and reading resource material,” she said.

Nicole Alexander says each of her books contains a snippet of her own family history. She now lives in the Moree-Boomi area of northern NSW. PHOTO: SUPPLIED

“I probably won’t use half the information. However, a firm basis helps to ensure authenticity and create a strong sense of place in the story. “Once I’m in the writing phase I begin around 8.30am and go through until 3.30-4 in the afternoon.” Ms Alexander aims to write 2000 words per day. “I may well be doing some extra research as well during this period and this is usually when I do my field trips to the areas where the novel will be set.” It’s been 10 years since The Bark Cutters was released and The Cedar Tree is Ms Alexander’s tenth book. In that time, her life has changed significantly. “My day job has changed a lot. We downsized our rural holdings in 2016 and I’ve since moved into Moree and commute out to the property at Boomi when needed. “On the writing side, my books have been top 10 bestsellers,

Nicole Alexander’s top reads: z Ernest Hemingway z Judy Nunn z The Shiralee by D’Arcy Niland z Lonesome Dove by Larry McMurtry

published internationally and have been translated for publication in Germany, Russia and the Ukraine.” Each and every book contains a snippet of Ms Alexander’s own family history. “This could be a story that has been passed down through the generations, an actual past event or information I’ve gleaned from old paddock books, catalogues or magazines.” The new work is an interaction of generations and includes immigrants from Ireland and Italy interwoven with stories of government land redistribution.

“My paternal great-grandfather was originally from Northern Ireland and was one of the first settlers to take up land in southern NSW along the Murray River under the 1861 Robertson Land Act, before moving north. His story reminded me of the great journeys people took to start new lives, and of the subsequent upheavals in NSW when the government began to break the hold that squatters held over large tracts of land and open it up for selection and sale.” Ms Alexander describes The Cedar Tree as “a novel of love, adventure and betrayal”. It spans two centuries and is set against the backdrop of the cedar-cutting era, Catholic versus ced Protestant disputes, the sugar cane and sheep industries, World War II and the introducW tion of the Robertson Land Act. t “When I began crafting it, I wanted to explore the idea of w what it means to be free; inw dividually, as a community, d a society and ultimately, as a country. How far an individual c is i willing to go to obtain their liberty, is matched only by the l cost associated with gaining c that freedom. And then there is t the t very real question of what happens afterwards. Being able h to forgive lies at the heart of the novel.” Shaped by the love of her rural surroundings, Ms Alexander says that Mother Nature provides plenty of inspiration. She also loves the work of other Australian authors and writers who work with a sense of authenticity. “The space. The light. The sky. Our land is a living breathing entity and mother to us all. It may only be the backdrop to a story but it’s the tapestry the narrative unfolds upon, and so it’s important that the land is included as a character in its own right. “Those of us who live in regional, rural and remote Australia are moulded by our environment and I think an authentic strong sense of place is essential when you’re writing stories set in Australia.” In conversation with Nicole Alexander Meet the author! Nicole Alexander will be the special guest of Dubbo library from 6pm on Tuesday, March 24. This is free event with light refreshments provided but bookings are essential by calling 6801 4510. Books will be available for purchase and signing.

IN BRIEF

Kerbside recycling score: Victoria $96.5 million, NSW... $0 LOCAL Government NSW (LGNSW) has warned the NSW government that it must act if we are to maintain and improve kerbside recycling options and drive down the amount of waste going to landfill. Victoria acknowledged the importance of investing more into recycling and the domestic recycling market by announcing a $96.5 million package last week to help support its state’s waste industry. LGNSW, with the support of NSW councils, is calling on the NSW Government to Save Our Recycling by reinvesting the Waste Levy to allow councils to develop regional waste plans and deliver priority infrastructure, increase procurement of recycled goods made with domestic content, deliver state-wide education campaigns to promote waste avoidance and recycling, and introduce producer responsibility schemes for problematic materials.

IT’S A RECORD! A group of professional paratroopers from Venezuela and Ecuador has broken the Guinness World Record for the most crossings of the Equator during a parachute jump by a team. On board a Cessna 206 aircraft, the paratroopers were taken to 12,000 feet, exactly on the Equator line. The paratroopers made the jump consecutively, and after just 20 minutes in the air they managed to do an incredible 12 crossings.

FOR the third year running, CWA Wongarbon Branch will host their annual major fundraiser presenting a collection of historical gowns, in partnership with the Cavalcade of History and Fashion. The Cavalcade is a volunteer organisation which collects and maintains examples of historical clothes, shoes and accessories from Australiaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s past, and documents their owners. â&#x20AC;&#x153;They archive the clothes and find out the story behind the garment, about the lady who wore it and where she might have worn it.

FEAR of speaking out against gender-biased behaviours in the workplace runs deep for many working women, even high achievers like 2019 NSW Businesswoman of the Year Leanne Heywood. Mrs Heywood is a powerhouse, sitting on four boards, including three Australian listed companies, one of which is in the ASX200. The seniority of her roles has not quarantined her from gender bias but has given her the confidence to speak out. It took 12 years after she formally complained about an incident of sexual harassment to her then employer, Rio Tinto, that, having seen no evidence of a resolution, she initiated a conversation in the public sphere. “It was a tough call on my behalf to speak out against Rio Tinto. I’d read an article by Virginia Trioli that talked about people not speaking out about sexual harassment and it just triggered me to speak up,” Mrs Heywood told Dubbo Photo News. “I’ve spent my life thinking, ‘I can’t speak out, it will ruin my career.’ Now as a senior leader, the time has come to open the debate.” Mrs Heywood can cite many examples of where she felt her gender has resulted in her being treated differently to her male counterparts.

“I have, however, never let this get in the way of my career. My favourite quote on this subject is from Shirley Chisolm, the First African American Woman elected to the US Congress, who said, ‘If they don’t give you a seat at the table, bring a folding chair.’ “I’m a big believer in backing yourself and showing up with conviction.” Throughout her career in mining and later running companies, there has often been evidence of unconscious bias. “It’s the kind of behaviour that’s ingrained in our society through hundreds of years of conditioning which people are not aware of. It can include selecting men over women for an interview or promoting men over women, despite identical qualifications and experience. A

study completed by Harvard University identified that men who report to men are promoted more quickly than their counterpart women, despite their being no difference in performance. “What changed for me is that the more seniority I achieved, the more concerned I became, and the more leverage I now have to do something about it. I have spent much of my career to date in mining where gender-biased behaviours were prevalent. “For example, when I left my first senior role, a male colleague gave me a farewell gift of rubber gloves and some dishwashing liquid and told me to get back in the kitchen where I belonged. “He thought it was a joke, but it was not appropriate. Thirty years down the track

10 things Leanne Heywood recommends, to strive for gender equity in your workplace: 1. Ensure your physical work- 8.

things are much better in mining but when I stepped out of that industry into other industries, I discovered that many of the same issues are prevalent elsewhere. In some cases, it is worse,” she said. Change is in the wind as ASX200 boards are encouraged by the Australian Institute of Company Directors to increase the numbers of women to a minimum target of 30 per cent. “It’s interesting that now boards are targeting more women, some men are complaining that ‘it’s too hard to get a board role, if you’re a man you haven’t got a chance’. “I look at it this way. For my whole working life, I’ve competed with 90 per cent men for every job I’ve taken on and men are now competing with 50 per cent women. It seems fair to me.” Of concern to Mrs Heywood is the current pace of change which suggests it will take some 277 years to achieve true gender equity. “That is a horrifying statistic. If we assume that working harder at it will definitely bring results, then why don’t we work ten times as hard and achieve true gender equity in 28 years, within my granddaughters working life!” she said. z Leanne Heywood will be one of the special guest speakers at the “International Women’s Day – Supporting our Ladies on the Land” fundraiser being held in the Dubbo RSL Memorial Club Auditorium this Saturday, March 7.

L.H. Ford Bridge to close for works MOTORISTS using L.H. Bridge have experienced closures on Tuesday and Wednesday, March 4 and 5, with a further three days ahead of planned overnight closures. Ongoing works on Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday, March 9, 10 and 11, will block through traffic between 8pm and 6am. The closures are needed for the continuing strengthening work increasing the Bridge’s heavy vehicle rating to allow B-Doubles and road trains travel along Cobra Street and enter the CBD, expected with the opening of the Inland Rail and Parkes Hub. Works also include the raising of the bridge to connect the new piers to the existing bridge and grouting key components which will require full bridge closures to minimise traffic disruptions. During the night bridge closures, detours will be in place across the Emilie Serisier Bridge. Motorists should plan their trip, allow extra travel time and follow the direction of traffic control and signs, including reduced speed limits.

GOLDEN HIGHWAY PUBLIC ART BRIGHTENS UP MACQUARIE HOME STAY A mural designed and painted by local artists Jack Randell, John Murray, Lewis Burns, Gill Pedrana, Pietro Dudek and Locky Naef is the largest public art project installed in a Dubbo streetscape. “The brief for the Macquarie Home Stay mural was to create a design that is emblematic of the whole region,

from the mountains to the plains. That vision includes our characteristic humour, traditions, vitality and thoughtfulness as expressed by the cohort of invited artists,” Mr Randell said. The site is being painted along the perimeter of Macquarie Home Stay, providing a noise barrier, security and privacy for future stages of the facility.

It measures 100 metres long by 2.4 metres high. This mammoth work will be on both sides of the fence, one side visible from Cobbora Road, the other side will be visible from inside Macquarie Home Stay. This amazing project was commenced late last month and, weather permitting, will be completed by this

Friday, March 6. “Art Club Dub is also facilitating short workshops at the mural site for local youth, with a number of organisations opting in,” Mr Randell said. Pictured at the mural site this week are, back, Blake Browning, front, Gillian Pedrana, Jack Randall, Locky Naef. PHOTO: DUBBO PHOTO NEWS/KEN SMITH

Kids having a ‘wheely’ good time HAVING surgery isn’t necessarily at the top of a kid’s favourite thing to do, but sometimes it’s necessary. Dubbo Private Hospital has added a little distraction for the mini patients who come through their doors. “There were no tears and all smiles as two pint-sized patients tested out the new company car in the theatres at Dubbo Private Hospital recently,” Dubbo Private Hospital spokesperson Emma Monseure said. “Dubbo Private purchased the mini Range Rover at the beginning of the year to help enhance patient experience, and to help reduce the fear and anxiety typically associated with a hospital visit. “By the look of these smiles, we think it’s a winner!” she said.

COUNCIL WATCH Solar and wind farm committee created COUNCILLORS Anne Jones and John Ryan have been appointed to the newly created Dubbo Regional Council (DRC) Solar and Wind Farm Consultative Committee. The committee will replace two Community Benefit Fund committees which previously dealt separately with wind farms and solar farms. DRC also recently determined councillor representatives for four existing advisory panels for airports, disability inclusion, social justice, street trees, and solar and wind farms. Councillors on the Dubbo Regional Council Airports panel are Vicky Etheridge, Dane Gumley Stephen Lawrence, Greg Mohr and John Ryan; on the Disability Inclusion advisory panel are Jane Diffey and Vicky Etheridge; and on the Social Justice advisory panel are Vicky Etheridge, John Ryan, Stephen Lawrence and Anne Jones. Cr John Ryan has been appointed to the Street Tree advisory Panel.

Cultural Plan feedback asks for support of local artists COMMUNITY consultation held in December 2019 about the Regional Cultural Program and Action Plan that is currently under consideration at Council has revealed a desire from the arts community for a Council policy which prioritises support of local creative practitioners. There has been a call for recognition from Council of the professionalism and skills already present within the community, and demonstrated signs that those skills are valued. Stakeholders and community submissions encouraged the sharing and promotion of local cultural products outside the LGA (local government area) and access to funding and grant opportunities with cultural outcomes. Submissions also asked that culture be used as a selling point for the region, that locals have access and equity in creating and sharing their work, and that a cultural identity be sought. A councillor workshop will be held to review the Draft Cultural Plan.

OPINION & ANALYSIS

LETTERS & FEEDBACK

THE TOONS’ VIEWS

We need our leaders to ensure water security The Editor, Dubbo Regional Council (DRC) is about to slug ratepayers $5 million for smart water meters to make it easier for them to further punish the city’s avid gardeners. In my opinion, the high-handed policing actions of DRC come after it failed to (do everything it should to) maintain a secure water supply for its communities through this prolonged drought. The mayor and CEO won’t accept responsibly for the city’s lack of water, content as they are to lay the blame entirely at feet of WaterNSW. Our civic leaders contend they have no say on how Burrendong Dam is managed, and there was no way they could prevent the releases from the dam over the past three years that have left all downstream communities high and dry. Well, given that we live in an historically drought-prone area, why has it not been DRC’s practice to monitor the dam level and officially request WaterNSW not make any further irrigation or environmental releases once the level gets below 33 per cent. It would appear our civic leaders are content to let WaterNSW create a totally avoidable situation that causes serious economic harm and mental anguish to town residents and business people. The mowers have cranked up again after some good rain through February, but I wonder how many small businesspeople have seriously struggled or gone bust during these water restrictions. And I wonder what the impact has been on Council’s budget with the massive decrease in water

rate revenue this summer. DRC says it’s not responsible for the town’s water security, yet it continuously promotes our region as a great place for city slickers to move to. Our local MP Dugald Saunders has been spruiking Dubbo is going to grow to 60,000 by 2050. Where is the water coming from for that many people if they can’t provide enough for those already here? Well the answer is, there is enough water. There’s heaps of it when the dam is full, and it will fill again, regardless of one DRC director’s prediction that we’ll have to get used to the dam not always being full. The dam will fill again, we’ve just got to get policy in place to prevent it being drained so low again. Mr Saunders and the DRC need to lobby WaterNSW to implement a policy that limits irrigation and environmental releases below the 33 per cent storage level. In my opinion, the explanation as to why we don’t have this policy in place now is due to the political leveraging of the irrigators and the environmentalists. We need a fair and reasonable agreement between all stakeholders in the lower Burrendong region. We need leaders to step up and make this happen. Mr Saunders has seen the light on the Drug Court and now he needs to step up and ensure the city’s water security into the future. The DRC elections are coming up in September. It’s imperative that all residents seriously consider who they vote for. We need people in there with the vision to make this region grow and

thrive and we can’t do that without water. Steve Hodder, Dubbo

Let’s tidy up our highways into Dubbo too The Editor, I enjoyed the articles on cleaning up at South Campus and near the Macquarie River in last week’s Dubbo Photo News. Dubbo Regional Council should consider cleaning up the highways leading into Dubbo, too. There is an accumulation of rubbish beside these roads. In the past Dubbo was a Tidy Town. People walked beside the highways collecting rubbish. Chris Owens, Dubbo

Male privilege continues to rear his ugly head Greg Smart ❚ OPINION MALE privilege took two forms recently that bears discussion. Students of the elite Catholic all boys school, St Kevin’s College in Melbourne, were filmed late last year performing loud and offensive sexist chants on a tram by a member of the public. The chants which denigrated women to the level of a male sexual conquest were sung loud and proud by the Year 10 and 11 boys whilst wearing their school uniforms. By entering the public domain, the video gave us an insight into the entrenched misogyny that exists in the elitist male-centric environment of the school. These sexist chants were not made up on the tram, but rather passed down from one student cohort to the next. When the video of the incident hit social and mainstream media, the school was forced to go into damage control, with the headmaster Stephen F. Russell declaring the behaviour will not go unchallenged and the matter will be investigated in “both a disciplinary and pastoral manner”. The behaviour of those 16 and 17-year-old boys can’t be written

off as ‘boys being boys’. It points to an intrenched attitude towards women as second class citizens, which is revealed in the treatment and disrespect towards female teachers and peers, as found by the Four Corners report recently. This attitude has avoided correction in their school, and one presumes the home environment. So, whilst St Kevin’s declares on its website “we aim to be a welcoming and hospitable community that will provide strong witness to gospel values”, behind the marketing fluff the reality is women are welcome only if they are the plaything of men, and gospel values are meaningless when machismo needs to be publicly displayed. And given the subrogation of women by the tenets of monotheism (e.g. the anathema against birth control, and lumping women in with cattle as neighbours’ possessions not to be coveted), how would the application of gospel values regarding the treatment of women be of any instruction to these boys? As for the parental influence, do parents send their boys to this school because of religious devotion, or the societal advantage these ‘elite’ type of school’s pander to provide? The answer is obvious, and suggests sexist behaviours are ignored because of the status attendance brings and the vast amount of money changing hands. Moral superiority claimed by di-

no-one can. The horrible outcome of this act was spread across social and mainstream media. An understandable public outpouring of grief was mirrored by political leaders, and questions were asked about how this horrendous act could happen. But few made comment that these types of acts happen all the time. In Australia, at least 50 women die per year at the hands of their male partner, but it takes a death of a child in a macabre or heinous nature to make the media and politicians notice. Behind closed doors 50 women are murdered annually by their partner or former partner, usually following extended emotional, physical and financial abuse, and controlling behaviour. Often witnessed by their children, inflicting lasting emotional trauma with socio-economic impacts, this behaviour isn’t deemed newsworthy, nor attracts political platitudes. After her death, it came to light that Clarke and her children had suffered these abuses during her marriage. ` Ultimately, despite the Ultimately, despite the intervenintervention of her family tion of her family and their emoand their emotional, tional, financial and physical supfinancial and physical port, Hannah Clarke could not support, Hannah Clarke escape the fatal wrath of a concould not escape the fatal trolling man. This loss was an affront to his image of manhood, as wrath of a controlling man... a projected to his real and online world. Hannah Clarke and her

vine revelation, coupled with deep pockets and male egos, is not a recipe for sexual equality. The death of Hannah Clarke and her children in February at the hands of her estranged husband had much to do with male ego and privilege. Rowan Baxter had a history of inflicting domestic abuse, having threatened to kill his previous partner and their child if they left him. After his marriage to Hannah Clarke broke down in 2019, he allegedly attempted to kidnap their eldest daughter and had a domestic violence order taken out against him. They reached a mediated agreement about his access to their children, but he was charged in early February for breaching the order. On February 19, Baxter took the heinous step of committing familicide by burning his family to death; his fragile male ego decided that if he can’t have his family,

children paid the ultimate price for this perceived damage to his self-image. What formed this image of his manhood? Was it the need to fit into the Aussie ‘good bloke’ image? Was it his background in the hypermasculine world of rugby league or the gymnasium he ran with Baxter? All of the above, and probably more. Despite him being known to the police and the courts, Hannah Clarke could not find a place of safety from a man with a penchant for manipulation and abuse. In the aftermath of their deaths, political leaders offered platitudes but nothing of substance. That the Federal Government has been defunding front line domestic violence support services (but greatly increased funding to schools of the likes of St Kevin’s) since coming to power should alert us to their true feelings on protecting women. Senator Pauline Hanson declared ‘these things happen’ when asked about the murder of Baxter and her children – blaming the victim for the inability of Baxter to control his wounded male privilege. We all agree these things shouldn’t happen, but they will continue to happen until men accept that the equality of women does not come at their expense. z Greg Smart lives and works in Dubbo, and is a keen observer of current affairs.

After ﬁnding out a friend was being bullied at school, nineyear-olds Grace McLean, Arkie Wriggley and Trish Gonzales teamed together to show support by holding a cupcake stall out the front of Grace’s home. With the help of her parents, they made brownies, blondies and cupcakes and decorated them with their favourite lollies to sell to cars driving past. The schoolgirls were blown away by the support of the community and that even those without a sweet tooth donated. Grace McLean told Dubbo Photo News “some people stopped, and they just gave us money, they didn’t even buy anything!” The girls sold out and raised $113 which they will be donating to the Kids Helpline.

The boys were not lucky enough to see the team win their 11th straight match to Newcastle Jets (2-1) but met Jacob post game. “He signed a soccer ball for them and was very pleased they’d gone down to see him play. It was only the third full game for Jacob and he’s only been playing with Perth Glory for about six months,” Bill Williamson said. Jacob’s mum Lisa Tratt was also there with the Dubbo contingent to see Jacob in action.

DARK EMU

By Bruce Pascoe. Winner of a number of awards, Pascoe puts forward a compelling argument for the reconsideration of the hunter-gatherer label for pre-colonial Aboriginal peoples. The evidence insists that across the continent, they were using domesticated plants, sowing, harvesting, irrigating and storing. One of our best-selling titles – particularly to farmers.

By Bruce Pascoe. The author uses the diaries of early explorers and colonists to show us the Australia where Aboriginal people did build houses, did build dams and wells, and productively, did farm the land. And this edition is readily accessible to younger readers.

BHUTAN TO INDIA

By William Stanford. Bill and Janice Stanford travelled to Bhutan and northern India in 2018. They had been in the area in 1973 and went back having considered that it was the most fascinating country on the planet.

By Greg Sheridan. The Judeo-Christian tradition has created and underpinned the moral and legal fabric of Western civilization for more than 2,000 years - now we’ve reached a point in Australia and other parts of the West where Christianity has become a minority faith rather than a mainstream belief. It’s a situation both for Christians and our wider society, where moral certainties that were the foundation of our institutions and laws are no longer held by the majority. This book shows why Christianity is so vital for our personal and social well-being. #32601 Pb JUST $29.95

9 REASONS TO SHOP AT YOUR LOCAL BOOKSTORE

Books have a real eﬀect on the lives of people, and whether those of us who are readers or otherwise, the minds of those who read can inﬂuence those who do not. Authors Scott Christianson and Colin Salter have written “100 Books That Changed the World” and as we read through it, it becomes obvious that the selection from over 3,000 years has been a comfort, inspiring and educational.

My own thoughts are that I am still in business today, motivated 50 years ago by reading “Psycho-Cybernetics” by Mazwell Maltz, a narrative that encourages one to set a target, and the mind works to achieve that, even though unforeseen circumstances can impact on achieving the goal. In the early 1990s we decided to add second-hand books to our range of titles. A customer who knew that I had worked periodically in the USA suggested that I should go and view Powell’s Books in Portland, Oregon. This was co-incidental as the company I was with in those farm machinery days had their registered office in Portland. I spent three days in their bookstore, discussing the strategies with Michael Powell who is the same age as me. His daughter is now CEO of the business – a third generation being involved. The following detail on “9 Reasons to shop at Your Local Bookstore” came from them recently. Oh, the things you’ll find! A good local bookstore will shelve all the current best sellers and popular standards, but it will also be full of off-the-beaten-path recommendations from the bookselling staff. At any Indie bookstore you’ll find at least one member of staff who shares your passion for poetry, history or children’s books or local guides, and whose absolute favourite activity is filling your arms with heartfelt staff picks. Bookstores are happy places. Let’s be honest: no one gets into bookselling to make a cool million. So Indie booksellers (and bookstore owners) sell books because they enjoy doing so, and because they’re passionate readers with a deep faith in the value of free speech and the written word. This helps make local bookstores cheerful places, alive with comeradery, a shared sense of purpose, and a lot of English majors trying to out-pun each other. Money, honey. Buying books at your local bookstore helps keep your money circulating within your neighbourhood economy. Unlike some international retailers, local businesses, both big and small, pay into state and local taxes that support public infrastructure programs. A book might seem like a small purchase, but whenever you buy locally, you’re sustaining your community. It feels so good. You know the pride you take in good deeds like composting or assorting your recycling or limiting your kid’s screen time? The same warm feeling of doing the right thing for yourself and others applies to shopping locally. Everyone is welcome. No Matter your ethnicity, religion, gender orientation, age, education level economic status, or political affiliation, you will be treated with respect and kindness. Regional Treasures. Neighbourhood bookstores often highlight the work of regional authors and small presses with special displays and events. Perusing a local bookstore can give you a clear sense of the town or neighbourhood you’re in, and the regions predominant interests and concerns. Third place is first place. Local bookstores provide an important social environment sometimes referred to as the “third place.” Not home and not work or

school, third places are critical arenas for relationship building, exchanging ideas, or just relaxing. The defining element of a third place is that it is both of its community and responsive to it, as a hub for book clubs. Story-times, author talks – your bookstore exists for you, and owes its continued existence to your patronage. An ambivert’s paradise. Bookstores are the perfect place to go when you don’t want to be alone, but you don’t want to talk to anyone. You can thumb through pages, eavesdrop on interesting conversations, or just be quiet alongside your book-loving kin. That book smell Are you a new book smell person (crispy, inky); or maybe you prefer the heady aroma of old paperbacks (almonds and vanilla flowers)? Either way walking into your neighbourhood bookstore is likely to fill your senses with that brilliant cocktail of new and crumbling paper that digital devices just can’t duplicate. Powells Books of Portland have been selling books since 1971 rising to become the largest bookstore in the world, through their effort, commitment and strategies of dealing with a changing world. About ten years ago our senior staff member Rae Craft and her husband visited Powells, and Michael Powell spent the day showing them through his many departments and discussing strategies. Such a business model plus the ongoing support from our regional communities has meant that we can continue to be of service. Books influence us all, either we read them or those who don’t are influenced by those who do. “100 Books That Changed the World” is a chronological survey of the world’s most influential books. Many books have become classics, must-reads or overnight publishing sensations, but how many of them can genuinely claim to have changed the way we think? In his book Christianson brings together an exceptional collection of truly ground-breaking books – from the scriptures that founded religions, to scientific treatises that challenged beliefs, to novels that kick-started literary genres. From the earliest illustrated manuscripts to the age of e-book, they include:• Iliad & the Odyssey (750BC) • Gutenburg Bible (1450s) • The Qur’an (AD 609-632) • One the Revolutions of Heavenly Spheres (1543) • Shakespeare’s First Folio (1623) • Philosopae Naturalis Principa Mathematica (1687) • Samuel Johnson’s Dictionary (1755) • Wealth of Nations (1766) • The Vindication of Women’s Rights (1792) • The Communist Manifesto ((1848) • Roget’s Thesaurus (1852) • On the Origin of the Species (1859) • The Interpretation of Dreams (1899) • Lady Chatterley’s Lover (1928) • The Diary of a Young Girl (1947) • Quotations of Chairman Mao Tse-tung (1964) • A Brief History of Time (1988) And on our bookshelves we have those that are available from publishers today. A good example of how our customers interact with us, giving me a gift in 2017 of two framed quotes from a station owner on the Darling River south of Bourke. One quote is the definition “What is a Good Bookseller?” The other states “Warning – Rare Book Pox – Highly Contagious – there is no known cure!” And these still hang from our wall as a reminder of the interaction we share with so many folk in the west. All of us at the Book Connection are vitally involved with our books and our customers, a wonderful combination of intellect and social interaction with our visitors.

Helping with the platypus survey

By COLIN ROUSE

Pictured are some of the volunteers gathered for breakfast after early morning stake-outs along the Macquarie River to try and spot the iconic but shy national icon.

By Yvette Aubusson-Foley It must be a lot of kidsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; dreams to find a ticket to NASA Space Camp under their Christmas tree, but for brothers Finn and Noah Randell, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a moment that actually happened â&#x20AC;&#x201C; and one theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll never forget. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We were opening Christmas presents on the floor and the last present was this small envelope, so we opened it and found weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d been chosen for NASA Space Camp. The house was a bit loud for a couple of minutes,â&#x20AC;? Noah said. Both are students at the Central West Leadership Academy and both were successful in their application for grants from the Supporting Young Scientists Program 2019/20 and sponsorship funding from the office of the NSW Chief Scientist. They each receive $5000 in grant funding to support their attendance at the 2020 One Giant Leap NASA Space Camp in the USA later in the year. After finishing school, Finn is keen to get his PhD in Mathematics and work in astrophysics while his brother Noah wants to do coding. Both got a tip from the NSW Chief Scientist during a coding program in Sydney that they needed extension opportunities in physics to achieve their goals. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s likely NASA Space Camp will tick all the right boxes, offering a focus on astrophysics, aeronautics, astronaut training and problem solving. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d like to have long and interesting talks with some NASA people,â&#x20AC;? Finn said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;At NASA, Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m

hoping, number one, I get some science into it, and number two, I learn some good things about life from these NASA scientists.â&#x20AC;? One day Finn would like to work for NASA but on Earth, not on Mars. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d be working for the mission to go to Mars.â&#x20AC;? Noah would like to be a programmer and canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t wait for the chance to see how NASA programs its rockets. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I can actually get a chance to see what the science behind the trajectory of the rocket was, and how much fuel is needed, and how do they know how much fuel is needed for the distance, and how long it will take,â&#x20AC;? he said. At the Academy, these kinds of opportunities are not uncommon. â&#x20AC;&#x153;A part of what we really try to do for kids is to give them real world learning and extension opportunities as they arise and connect people with opportunities to learn from leaders in their field,â&#x20AC;? School Principal and the boysâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; mother Mandi Randell said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;What is important for kids, especially regional kids, is to have exposure not only to whatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s going on in their regional world, but state-wide, nationwide and internationally, so weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re really excited to be able to find this opportunity thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s at a literal world class calibre to develop our kids who are interested in this particular aspect of learning,â&#x20AC;? she said. Mrs Randell also acknowledged the â&#x20AC;&#x153;importance and generosity of the Office of the Chief

Scientist and Engineer of NSW in supporting

high achievement and extension in STEMâ&#x20AC;?. ! " # !

Before and After at Bourke, one year apart Long-time Dubbo resident Steve Hodder has written to the Editor for today’s paper urging that more needs to be done to ensure water security in our part of the state. Steve took these photos a year apart, showing the dramatic change for the better at Bourke Weir following good rains over the past month. Referring to the photos taken

in February 2019 (top), Steve explained, “The river had not been ﬂowing over the weir for some months at that stage, and the town was on Level 4 water restrictions. “The river is the main source of potable water for the town. They do have bores for desperate times but the bulk of their water is from the river,” he said.

Bird life at Bourke Weir: While at Bourke last week, Mr Hodder was relieved for that local community to see water ﬂowing in the Darling River, and an adundance of bird life. “There were pelicans everywhere. It was beautiful,” Steve commented.

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.

Eagles, birdies and kangaroos highlight Swedish golfer’s win Swedish lady with nerves of ice! NSW Open winner Julia Engstrom

By GEOFF MANN Photos by MEL POCKNALL JULIE Engstrom will forever remember her stunning last round at the 2020 NSW Womens Open played at Dubbo Golf Club. It was laden with thrilling birdies, an eagle and an ice-cool last hole showdown with overnight leader Manon De Roey from Belgium. The svelte player with a silken swing achieved a morale-boosting win worth plenty of dollars however it was another priceless opportunity that she will share with her friends and family in the European summer. “Kangaroos!”

The simple dream of seeing big hoppers in their native habitat became an absolutely pulsating reality when Julia and the 150-plus visitors arrived in the capital of the west. “They were our biggest fans, lining the fairways and even sitting up around the greens. Unbelievable!” she said De Roey held a five stroke lead on Sunday but a nervous finish including a bogie on the last chewed into it allowing the brilliant Swede to seize the Cup on the 18th. Engstrom won with 14 under par, two strokes ahead of De Mikey with another Swede, Camilla Kenarth a further strike back in third.

During this time our funds have helped individuals like Ryan Medley, the late Chris Thompson’s family, and Kara Toomey, as well as the Dubbo Stampede, St Johns JRL, Men of League and many other charities and appeals,” Bryan added.

By GEOFF MANN SUNDAY was billed as a Come and Try Day to encourage newcomers to the age old sport of Dragon Boating. The Dubbo club, known as the Outback Dragons, launched two new training boats as part of the gala event. “It’s an ancient tradition to Awaken the Dragon in new boats by painting red eyes on it’s face. I guess it’s the Western custom of breaking a bottle of wine against the hull,” club president Graeme Board explained. “We have a heap of fun training on the Macquarie and these boats will improve our capacity to cater for more paddlers,” Graeme added. Long serving Dragons and a few new faces were joined in the boats by Deputy Premier John Barilaro and local Member for Dubbo Dugald Saunders. “We appreciate the funds granted to us by the NSW government. They recognise the contribution a sporting club like the Outback Dragons makes to Dubbo city and surrounding communities,” Graeme said. More info on Dubbo’s Dragon Boats are online.

Tim back where it “almost” all began By GEOFF MANN TEN years ago Dubbo all-rounder Tim Armstrong had the cricketing world at his feet. He was a star with bat and ball at RSL Colts, Western Zone junior representative level, CHS as well as NSW 17s. Such was the young player’s talent he was chosen in the Australian Under-19s team for the 2010 World Cup. Mitchell Marsh was the skipper, Josh Hazelwood and Mitchell Starc shared the ball alongside future internationals Adam Zampa and Kane Richardson. In fact there was plenty of discussion as to whether Marsh and Hazelwood, who had already played first class cricket with Western Australia and NSW respectively, were eligible. Head coach Greg Chappell was brought in to make a decision. Australia downed a Pakistan team stacked with future Test and One Day stars including Ahmed Shehzad, Babar Azam, Hammad Azam and Raza Hazan. England boasted the likes of current captain Joe Root, Ben Stokes, James Vince and Jos Buttler who all featured in last year’s Ashes. Other current internationals included Abul Hasan and Sabbir Rahman (Bangladesh), Kithuruwan Vithanage and Dhanushka Gunathilleke (Sri Lanka), Manddep Singh, Mayank Agarwal, K.L. Rahul, Sandeep Sharma and Jaydev Unadkat (India) as well as Jermaine Blackwood, Kragg Brathwaite, Shane Dowrich and Jason Holder from the West Indies. Tim had the world at his feet after topping the batting tally for Australia with 240 at an average of 48. He earned a rookie contract with NSW for one season then played a handful of matches for WA and the Perth Scorchers before an indiscretion under coach Justin Langer curtailed his blossoming career. Tim headed to England for a number of years and is now back where his Sydney career began, playing alongside State captain Peter Nevill. He’s had a reasonably successful season averaging above 40 in all forms of Premier Cricket, highlighted by 123 in the one-day series.

PAINTBALL

Eskimo Brothers Australian Paintball champs A TEAM of Dubbo blokes has made national headlines following their win in the Australian Pro Paintball championships. Eskimo Brothers Pro Team made up of Jamie Angus (Dubbo), Nathan Jones (formerly Tamworth now based in Sydney), Nathan McDonnell (Queensland), Nick Bancroft (Qld), Timmy Colgan (Western Australia), Damien Sin (WA) and Chad George (USA) outmanoeuvred opposition “forces” to colour their world gold! The Eskimo Brothers Paintball Club defines its purpose and an Eskimo Brother or Sister. “When two players acknowledge having played on the same paintball team and remain on good terms, the players are bonded because they have shared the same igloo (field) at one time or another,” the club states online. “This can lead to perks by making the information known to other players who you can network with you – your Eskimo family tree.” Here’s an example from the club’s online forum. Player 1: “I really want to play super 7’s round 2 but my main team is

not playing. I wonder what my Eskimo Brothers are doing?” Player 2: “Sweet, we should reach out on the Eskimo Brothers Family Tree on the EBPBDB and throw together a team” Male 1: “... awesome idea! Let’s get our Eskimo Brothers together and have a bit of fun at that event. Best thing is, we already all have jerseys.” It goes on to praise founder Jamie Angus: “That bloke’s a legend for thinking of it!” The Eskimo Brothers was established out of Dubbo in 2016 and now run 11 teams across four divisions of Australia’s Biggest Paintball Tournament, the Australian Super 7’s. There are two Eskimo Pro Teams, three Semi Pro Teams, five Amateur Teams and one Novice Team making it the biggest group in Australia and fields more than any other club at a single event in the world. In round one in February, the Eskimos Pros took 1st and 2nd, the Semi Pro team won, while the Amateur and Novices both finished third. Jamie Angus says this was the Eskimo Brothers’ first Pro Win, having

previously won Semi Pros at other Super 7’s events. “The fact that the club has grown so quickly and achieved 1st and 2nd places less than four years since entering one team in 2016 is an impressive feat.” The Eskimo Nation has a multicultural mix with players from players from NSW, QLD, WA as well as Chad George and Tim Montressor from the USA. “Tim plays professionally for Tampa Bay Damage and Chad plays professionally for Houston Heat, the current world champions,” Angus said. “We also have a number of Dubbo players across other divisions including the Eskimo Sisters Dubbo Action Sports Amateur team led by Amy Shephard.” The club is set to grow to 13 teams for Round 2 of the Super 7’s with two new Novice teams entering the event under the Eskimo banner, mentored by more experienced players within the club.

A Dubbo Photo News link to the Coonamble Gold Cup By GEOFF MANN

FOLLOWING our story on some famous Coonamble Race Club history (“Coonamble Gold Cup history underscores Country Qualifier”, Dubbo Photo News, February 27) and the Country Championships Qualifier coming up on Sunday, March 15, Dubbo Photo News’s advertising guru Frances Rowley unlocked her treasure box of memories.

“A bit of trivia,” Frances told me. “My mum owned Travel On who you wrote about last week. “I have the Coonamble Gold Cup photo of Mum, Dad, jockey George Podmore and trainer Theo Green. “Travel On was Mum’s best horse. She bought it at the healing sales, which prompted comments from the racing-mad Stutt brothers John and Bill.

“John asked Mum why she would buy a horse with no breeding, a Roman nose and a bit off sway back. The rest is history,” Frances added. “We have always kept in touch with the Stutts who often stayed with us at Mendooran. The kids would always say when they saw Mum’s racing photos, ‘Gee Dad, Mrs Rowley has had a lot more wins than you!’” she laughed!

GOLF

Bec’s ﬁnal ﬂing on Pro golf circuit By GEOFF MANN REBECCA Artis was a Flood when she found golf in Coonabarabran. Her father, the local baker, has always been keen on the white ball game and encouraged Bec and her four brothers to pull out some clubs and play with him on the local course. From her early rounds and during lessons with the Coona pro it was obvious Bec had talent. Indeed she was a prodigious all round sport who excelled in the pool, on the track and cross country and the courts where she played various ball games. Turn the clock forward to senior high school years when Bec left St Lawrence’s Catholic School

to study HSC at Coonabarabran High and the 18-hole game had emerged as Bec’s first choice. “Our Principal Mick McIntyre was a huge support, encouraging me to study through a Pathways program. He was a tremendous support, always keeping me motivated and focused even when some of the teachers found it hard to comprehend that sport was a legitimate career path,” Bec told me on the eve of her first pro tournament since she called time in her 12-year career playing all around the world. Bec was indentured in the Gold Coast and represented Australia in plenty of overseas Development Tours before gaining her European Card at her first attempt.

Twelve years later and with wins in the Swedish and Scottish Opens, the Coonabarabran girl came back to the bush. “My husband had caddied for me my whole career but we’re both country people – Jeff grew up in Tamworth – so coming home to the northwest was always on our mind. Now we’re managing a refurbished pub in Narrabri and loving it,” she said. Bec’s goals were simple when she arrived in Dubbo for the elite NSW Open. “Dust off the clubs, have some fun with the girls and be a part of history at the first full professional tournament in Dubbo!” Bec was a bit rusty on day one, carding five over, but two succes-

sive even par rounds ensured she was there on the last day. Despite dropping another three shots on Sunday, the country golfer with magic hands was happy with her game. “When I was playing up till Easter last year, I would hit hundreds of balls each day, was constantly tuning up my pitching and

putting, and would play at least one full round to familiarise myself with the course. This week I turned up with clubs that have been in the shed for 12 months and had some fun in the Pro-Am then played 72 holes.”

Bec, thanks for making the effort and adding colour and prestige to Dubbo’s inaugural NSW Open!
