Mark & Di still smiling in a crisis

EDITORIAL

Time to share just the facts AS at the deadline for Dubbo Photo News yesterday, there were NO confirmed cases of COVID-19 in Dubbo, nor anywhere else in the western region covered by the Western NSW Local Health District. We know that because the Western NSW Local Health District’s Dubbo-based spokesperson told this newspaper directly. This fact flies in the face of some of the rumours going around town, one as recently as Monday, that Dubbo “already had three cases”. Most of us are now realising the rush on toilet paper was madness, and mostly a result of wrong information that was spread on social media and elsewhere online. People mouthing off before getting the facts caused a panic. So let’s now also think before we speak about the current COVID-19 situation. Don’t spread rumours, and be sure of your facts before you speak and share. Here’s a tip. The internet is wrong – a lot. Facebook and social media are wrong – a lot. So in times of crisis like these, it’s important to get your information from reputable sources. If someone or social media tells you something that doesn’t sound right, check the facts before getting concerned and before spreading that misinformation. It isn’t helpful, and in some cases the wrong information can be downright dangerous. Look at the drizzling that Gunnedahborn model Miranda Kerr got a few days ago when she shared – to her 12 million followers – a ridiculous suggestion from a non-expert claiming a particular juice had the necessary healing powers. That’s 12 million people who were fed the wrong information. Fortunately, many of her followers called her out on the error. We all need to know the correct facts about what to do, what not to do, and how to minimise the chances of the virus spreading to our loved ones, ourselves, and the wider community. Australian government websites such as health.gov.au and health.nsw. gov.au are doing a good job keeping us up to date with facts. Looking after our health is one of the main reasons we have governments, so it’s good to see they’re doing their job. Also doing their job well are local journalists like the ones who work for this newspaper. Our job is to fact check and report as accurately as we possibly can. Where necessary, journalists also question governments to make sure they’re doing their jobs, or where we feel the public isn’t getting the full story. So you should also feel confident turning to your local newspaper or radio station for reliable information. Let’s stay strong, stay healthy, and do what we need to maintain the great sense of community that Dubbo has always enjoyed.

Mark and Di Hawke still managed a smile, despite the cancellation of the Melbourne Grand Prix making their tickets worthless – and costing them thousands of dollars.

STAY POSITIVE IN TOUGH TIMES By JOHN RYAN

DI and Mark Hawke are a case study of how COVID-19 has affected a local couple in both the short and long term. Recently retired after long stints at the former Telecom and then Country Energy, they decided to take a trip down south. “We were sitting home in Dubbo and Diane said to me there’s a Holland Food festival in Melbourne. I’ve always wanted to go and since we recently retired, I said ‘why not’,” Mr Hawke told Dubbo Photo News. They packed up the car and headed to Melbourne with a view to go to the food festival. “A mate of mine from Geelong offered us a caravan free of charge to have a couple of

weeks at Ocean Grove. That’s a very affordable holiday, we were thinking, with maybe a chance to see the Great Ocean Road.” The couple was sitting in their motel room in Dandenong and Mark realised the Formula One Grand Prix was on the next weekend. “We thought it would be mad not to go. That obviously meant we had to move to the heart of Melbourne which was a lot more expensive but it was a lifetime opportunity, so I booked a motel room at the Grand Chancellor in Melbourne. It wasn’t really in our budget but we were already here,” Mr Hawke said. The room was around $1100 and then they looked to fill the week in Melbourne.

That week was taken up by the Old Melbourne Gaol, a river cruise, shopping and food. “On the Friday, two days before the F1 Grand Prix, the Victorian government and the F1 committee dropped a bomb shell and cancelled the race. “We were very angry because I believe they could’ve cancelled it a week out and, on my estimate, it would’ve saved us $2500. “We weren’t the only ones that are very aggravated at this decision. I’m talking thousands of people, because I believe they just waited for everyone to get to Melbourne for economic benefit to Victoria,” Mr Hawke said. They tried to book out early, but the story was there was no refund.

“This added to our woes with a huge financial loss over the stock market crash, having my super in high-growth. Luckily, I was able to stem the flow by contacting my superannuation and moving it to cash,” Mr Hawke said. “I’m a realist and hoping they find a cure for this terrible virus, where I will promptly move my superannuation back to high-growth and hopefully we can regain our losses, as that’s the way the market works. “We must stay positive in these times because, at the end of the day, it’s out of your control,” he said. The couple are now down at Ocean Grove and looking forward to the Great Ocean Road and beyond and trying to stay out of harm’s way.

HELPING KIDS

Motorcycles taking to the road for Dice Run By JOHN RYAN LEVERAGING their love of motorbikes to help out sick kids is a no-brainer, according to Central West Riders Social Motorcycle Club (SMC) president Darrel Harvey. The club is saddling up for a Dice Ride this Saturday, March 21, kicking off from Robertson’s Motorcycles at 7.30am with a barbecue and coffee van. There will be a $20 registration fee and the first dice roll before leaving at 9am for Yeoval and all money raised will go to help sick kids at Dubbo Hospital. “Helping the children’s ward out gives us a chance to go for a ride and we help the communities that we pass through because we stop and have a coffee or a drink. “We’re going through three drought-affected communities in the ride so there’s a chance to kick a few dollars into their economies,” Mr Harvey told Dubbo Photo News. “We’re going down to Yeoval first, from Dubbo, then to Molong then back up through Euchareena, stopping at Mumbil and then back to Wongarbon for a bit of a party.” There’ll be a dice roll at each rest stop and, after the riders roll into the Wongarbon Hotel, that final roll will signal the start of the festivities including a bike show and shine, charity auction and live music courtesy of The JJs. The riders are hoping plenty of people turn up to kick things

along, there’ll be play equipment for the kids and meals are available in the dining room. Darrel Harvey said it’s great to ride on trips with mates and get that wind in your hair, but the rides are made even better when you know it’s all for a great cause. “Just to be able to hand a cheque over to the kids’ ward, or a child who has cancer or even recently we ran a fundraiser for a friend who fell off his motorbike and it

helped him out when things were very difficult for him financially,” Mr Harvey said. People can help by donating, or they can just attend Wongarbon Hotel after 3pm on Saturday, he added. Wayne Collins is on the organising committee for the ride. A keen motorcyclist, he says it’s a real joy when people can combine their passion with doing good works in the community for

sick kids. “It’s a great charity event and a great show of fellowship amongst motorcycling enthusiasts and a good thing for the children’s wing of the local hospital. 100 per cent of all donations go to the children’s wing,” Mr Collins said. “Not only do you enjoy the pastime of riding which gets you away from the daily grind, but we can also bring about some benefit to the children.”

WORLD’S GREATEST SHAVE INSPIRES YOUNG SUPERHEROES By EMY LOU HARRIS IN front of a packed-out assembly hall of kids and teachers at Dubbo South Public school last Friday, March 13, two very brave young girls did something that most of us would never dare to do. They became superheroes and shaved their hair off for the Leukaemia Foundation to speed up blood cancer research. Australia is working hard to raise $16.5 million in order to achieve the Foundation’s exciting goal of zero lives lost to blood cancer by 2035. Taylah-Jayne Mackie, 11, was inspired by people she has known in her family and friendship groups who have been affected by blood cancer. She says that she chose to do this because she “wants to make a difference”. Tylah-Jean Honeysett, who is only 6 years old, said she decided to join the World’s Greatest Shave only a day before the

event. “I want to help blood cancer people who are sick,” she told Dubbo Photo News. Taylah-Jayne admitted she was scared to have her hair shaved because she has been growing her hair for such a long time. But young Tylah-Jean said she wasn’t scared at all because she has watched her mum’s hair come back from chemo and has wanted to shave her head ever since. She proudly said, “I’m helping mum too and now I’m helping lots of people!” Both girls said they would do it all over again if their hair was long enough “because they are helping so many people”. Tylah-Jean’s mum added that when she was sick, Tylah liked getting help from people so now she wants to do things to help other people. At last count, the two girls had raised a combined $740 online and had not yet counted their cash donations raised at school.

COVID-19 curtain closes on events By YVETTE AUBUSSON-FOLEY

Essential services remain unchanged

IN response to COVID-19’s impact on events, organisers in the Dubbo Regional Council area are being encouraged to postpone rather than cancel. “It is a constantly changing environment,” Council’s regional events manager Kim Hague said during a media conference on Tuesday. Mark Vincent, Choir of Man, Mirusia A Salute to the Seekers, and the Dubbo Eisteddfod are among a swathe of events upon which the COVID-19 curtain has fallen. Mrs Hague advised ticket holders to watch out for communications soon around future options for their purchases.

“It should be noted that Ian Moss and Sleeping Beauty have confirmed to us they will be proceeding as their numbers are below the 500-capacity limit, in line with Government instructions,” she said. Regional events in Dubbo and Wellington not proceeding with their current dates include Under the Western Skies, Running on Empty at the Westview Drivein, the Titan Macquarie Mud Run, Wellington Rotary Markets, Red Hot Summer Tour, ORISCON Cross Cultural Festival, the Dubbo Motorbike Rally, Dubbo Annual Show, Opera at Dundullimal, and the Dubbo Masters Athletics Carnival.

COUNCIL WATCH

“It’s worth noting the Wellington Boot racing carnival will be proceeding but without public access, purely for key personal, jockeys and trainers,” she said. Council’s essential services are yet to be interrupted. “There is rubbish being collected, the water and sewerage treatment facilities are functioning. Services are being provided. Council’s public customer experience centres are open. We’d like to say it’s business as normal, but it’s not business as normal because we are not working in normal times or conditions,” DRC media and communications manager Andrew Parsons said. Council has increased a hygiene

regime at council facilities, including access to sanitiser, an increased cleaning regime and, as per recommendations by National and State health bodies, social distancing where possible. “We recommend the community follow those guidelines when you’re out and about, particularly interacting with our staff or facilities, such as suppressing and covering their coughs, washing their hands regularly and if they feel sick, stay home,” Mr Parsons said. In the event council must scale back or close their facilities, the community will be alerted as soon as possible. “We are aware what we do has

an effect on how the community operates,” Mr Parsons said. “Like every other big organisation in the country, we’re having to move our business model to match the speed and effect this pandemic has.” Those effects can be behavioural, as the toilet paper panic buy indicated. Those left without toilet paper (thanks to those currently hoarding) need to also note, only toilet paper should enter their toilet. “The sewer system, like any eco system, is delicate. The last thing we need is another issue created by creative use of all things not toilet paper that cause a problem to our sewer system. It’s not helpful to human health and certainly not helpful to the way we’re doing business,” Mr Parsons said.

COVID-19 SHOPPING FRENZY

Small business leads the way amid chaos By LYDIA PEDRANA AMID the coronavirus panic and hysteria, one small, independent business in south-west Melbourne has been praised for their “thoughtful”, “kind”, “wonderful” initiative aimed at ensuring the community’s most vulnerable are looked after. On Sunday evening, management at the Pier Street IGA announced they would open their doors one hour earlier than normal exclusively for senior and disability card holders so they can purchase goods without distress. It came in response to “unprecedented consumer purchases” during the unfolding COVID-19 situation with the store saying they wanted to ensure everyone has the ability to purchase essential items at this difficult time. Within hours, the post went viral attracting tens of thousands of comments, ‘Likes’ and ‘Shares’, and the following morning, supermarket giant Woolworths announced they would follow suit. On Monday afternoon, Coles also jumped on the bandwagon. Pier Street IGA store manager Jhae Jones said they had no idea their move would attract such a widespread, positive response. “We are just trying to help our little community here,” she told Dubbo Photo News on Monday. “But the word has got out so I think tomorrow might be a crazy day to be totally honest.” Ms Jones said it was the store’s owner, Hitesh Palta, who came

up with the idea and it will be in place until at least April 6. While carers will also be allowed to shop with eligible individuals during these hours, people are not able to shop on behalf of another or use another person’s accreditation. Limitations on bulk purchases will also continue to ensure the rest of the community can still access essentials too. As for Woolworths, a dedicated shopping hour for those with relevant government-issued concession cards has been running from 7am to 8am since Tuesday this week. At time of writing,

this arrangement was in place until Friday, to be reviewed by management. From Thursday, Woolies will also offer care packages to society’s most vulnerable which can be collected at any time from customer service desks. Ashcroft’s IGA in Tamworth Street said they are focused on replenishing stock levels but would consider a similar concept should they feel it was required. In last’s weeks Dubbo Photo News, owner Ben Ashcroft said they were only out of toilet paper, but this week, it appears people are preparing to bunker down.

“Anything that can be frozen or stored is starting to go, we don’t have or are very low on paper towel, baby wipes, rice, pasta, tissues and tinned veg,” he said. When Dubbo Photo News spoke with Mr Ashcroft on Monday he was expecting two full trucks of grocery supplies later that day and he expected his store “should be back on top of it” by that night.

Dubbo Photo News contacted Woolworths to ask whether their dedicated shopping hour for the disabled and elderly was inspired by Pier Street IGA’s move, but no response was received before deadline.

COVID-19 & SPORT

Grassroots football suspended until April 14 By YVETTE AUBUSSON-FOLEY AS of Tuesday morning this week, Dubbo and Districts Football Association had been planning for the 2020 season to proceed as per a directive by their governing body, Football Federation of Australia. However at 5 o’clock the same day, that all changed with a statement from the FFA which advised sanctioned grassroots football competitions and asso-

ciated training would be suspended for the next four weeks. Such is the fluidity and knock-on effects of COVID-19 on sporting events. The decision will take effect from 12am on Wednesday, March 18, and be in effect until Tuesday, April 14. The announcement impacts the sport’s 2500 players in Dubbo, Wellington and Narromine. The decision comes as the latest in a series of measures being intro-

duced by the FFA to combat the ongoing spread of COVID-19 following the announcement of its COVID-19 Guidelines on Monday, and places the concerns, health and wellbeing of the Australian football and wider community as the highest priority. FFA Chief Executive Officer James Johnson explained that while disappointing, reducing community gatherings would help slow the spread of the virus and

that this was the driving factor in the decision. “Our decision today follows extensive discussions with all of Australia’s nine State and Territory Member Federations, taking into consideration the latest feedback from all levels of the football community,” Mr Johnson said. “We are also taking into consideration the ongoing response by both the broader international and Australian communities which is evolving almost on an hourly basis now,”

Mr Johnson said. Up until the moment the FFA announcement was made, Dubbo and Districts Football Association secretary manager Jim Auld said the local organisation was in the process of devising a strategy to deal with the COVID-19 threat while still being able to run a competition, but that’s all out the window now. FFA will continue to communicate new developments in the lead-up to Tuesday, April 14.

ONE of Australia’s first intergenerational learning centres is inviting expressions of interest from people interested in pursuing a career or enrolling their child at the centre. Once completed, Maranatha Gunyah will be the first purpose-built facility in Australia to introduce the shared model, with the childcare centre being constructed alongside Maranatha House aged care in Wellington. “The continued development of our existing aged care facility and expansion into intergenerational learning is the result of consultations undertaken with the local and wider community,” Intergenerational Care committee chairman Terry Frost said. “Providers of aged care housing can be an ideal platform for high quality intergenerational programming. When housing communities develop long-term partnerships with local educational institutions, it expands social engagement and future opportunities. “It will offer the best of both worlds. It’s a ground-breaking project on many levels,” he said. Jointly funded by Maranatha and the Federal Government’s Building Better Regions program, the 650m2 childcare centre plan features 57 places and four rooms with additional play and sleeping space for 14 people. It will also have the capacity to provide 24hour care in the future. For more information contact Maranatha House on 6845 3088.

EXCLUSION MAN GOES VIRAL By JOHN RYAN The Coronavirus threat has created an eerie feel in Australia as the serious nature of the crisis hit home this past week. But amidst the doom and gloom, one local bloke decided his workmates needed a bit of a laugh to lighten things up. “Exclusion Man” doesn’t want to be identiﬁed but he says he made the suit up on the spur of the moment and can’t believe the video posted to the Dubbo Photo News Facebook page had gone viral. “People need to have something to laugh about,” he said. He said so many people are worried about their aged or sick friends and relatives, or how their shares or superannuation has taken a hammering, that he felt he needed to do something to show that good old fashioned Aussie humour is alive and well. “I’ve always been a bit of a larrikin,” he said.

CORONAVIRUS IMPACT

Melanoma March goes ‘virtual’ instead By YVETTE AUBUSSON-FOLEY ORGANISERS and participants of Dubbo’s Melanoma March that was scheduled for this Saturday, March 21, are disappointed the physical event has been cancelled due to COVID-19 but have raised significant awareness and funds over the last several months. “Of course, we’re disappointed. It was going to be Dubbo’s inaugural event and we’ve put a lot of time and effort into preparing for it, but we’ve done all the preparation now and our numbers have grown, so look out 2021!” Melanoma March Dubbo committee member Donna Falconer said. “We absolutely understand why we have to (cancel the event), but we’ve still raised money and awareness through the ‘Game On Mole’ night and raffles,” she said. Dubbo-ites still wishing to engage with the Melanoma March campaign can join in a virtual event on Sunday, March 29, following the Melanoma Institute Australia’s announcement all marches nationwide would be cancelled. “This decision has not been

made lightly, however protecting the health of our dedicated community members and their families who run and attend these events, many of whom are cancer patients, is paramount,” CEO Matthew Browne said. “My sincere apologies and thanks particularly to our volunteer committees who work tirelessly to put on their local Melanoma March events every year.” Long-time Melanoma March supporter, Dubbo man Paul Reid, and his family will gather as planned to remember Mr Reid’s son, Tim, who died of melanoma aged 29. Melanoma is the most common cancer affecting young Australians aged 15 to 39. “The whole family goes to an annual check-up at the Melanoma Institute in Sydney. That’s a religious thing for us now,” Mr Reid said. “The Institute suggests if you’ve got something that looks a bit suspect, take a photo and remind yourself to take another one in five weeks or two months’ time, and see it if has changed. Always get anything you’re not sure about checked out,” he said. z To ﬁnd out how to donate or for more info on the virtual Melanoma March happening Sunday, March 29, Dubbo father Paul Reid lost his son to melanoma.

Second skills survey starts RDA Orana (RDAO) has begun its second skills survey in the region this week in the lead-up to the annual Orana@Work summit.

Vandals destroy young river trees By LYDIA PEDRANA VANDALS are believed to be responsible for the destruction of sapling gum trees near Devil’s Hole Reserve. Dubbo Regional Council discovered the damage last week and reminded the community that they report all vandalism at community reserves and facilities to police. A DRC spokesperson also confirmed there is a reward offered to those who report such crimes. “Council offers a reward of up to $2500 for information leading up to the conviction of any person who has committed wilful damage or theft of council property,” a council spokesperson said. While they are unsure of how the damage occurred, the DRC said it looks as if a 4WD vehicle may have been driven through the trees. Dubbo Photo News reader Linda Swain, who walks in the area with her husband and dogs each day, noticed the trees had been flattened late last month. “It’s very upsetting, you know, it’s just so pointless,” Mrs Swain said. “I remember when they put those little plants in, and we’ve been watching them grow.” Mrs Swain’s husband even propped one tree up to save it, but three days later it had been knocked down again. “I’m not sure what can be done about this destruction,” she said. “Whoever is doing it seems intent on killing the trees.” DRC said they are currently work-

Pensioners to benefit from one-off $750 stimulus payment

PENSIONERS, social security, veteran and other income support recipients and eligible concession card holders will benefit from a one-off $750 stimulus payment under the Federal Government’s first economic stimulus package. From March 31 to the end of April, payments will be made on a progressive basis, will be tax free and won’t count as income for Social Security, Farm Household Allowance or Veteran payments. If a person qualifies for the oneoff payment in multiple ways, they will only receive one payment.

Local events postponed in response to Coronavirus

ing on new plans for the area. “Council is currently developing new maintenance and biodiversity plans for the management of Dubbo’s riverside reserves and the use of trees as both natural and physi-

cal barriers to limit vehicle access,” a statement read. “Replacement trees will be considered in developing those plans and any planting will only occur when drought conditions have eased.”

Relief for Indigenous students Wesley House Players’ latest production “Pretext” stars Camilla Ward as Lucy, Vicki Bedingﬁeld as Cathy, Deborah Beasley as Soﬁe, and Phoebe Maroulis as Anne. PHOTO: DUBBO PHOTO NEWS/EMY LOU

By NATALIE LEWIS IF the rehearsal is anything to go by, Wesley House Players’ latest offering Pretext is set to be hilarious! Described by director Erifili Davis as ‘Sex in the City in the suburbs’, the production features Dubbo ladies Camilla Ward as Lucy, Vicki Bedingfield as Cathy, Deborah Beasley as Sofie and Phoebe Maroulis as Anne, with Daryl Rodda as the stage manager. The group has been rehearsing for the one-hour show twice a week for the past two months after auditions were held in January. “We have a wonderful cast of four women, many of whom are back on stage for the first time in years,” Mrs Davis said. Expressing the major shortage of men in community theatre,

We asked the cast why they became involved in Pretext... Deborah Beasley – I thought it was great that it was an all-female production. Phoebe Maroulis – I set a 2020 goal to do more creative stuff and to have a reason to catch up with cool people. It’s a way of meeting new people and being social. It’s really interesting to see the response from my workmates. It’s made them more aware of what I do in my spare time. Camilla Ward – Just to have a bit of me time in a different context. I’ve done producing and directing but I

Mrs Davis said she chose Pretext partly for its female cast. “I wanted to do a play that was a predominantly female cast because most plays have mainly males but our players are mostly women,” she explained.

haven’t trod the boards for a long time. I thought it was time I practice what I preach. It (the play) is a lot of fun for people, especially people who remember B-52s and Slippery Nipples. Community theatre is a really fun context to have a laugh. Vicki Bedingﬁeld – I got to a stage where my kids are older and I wanted to do something for me. The play looked amazing and was an opportunity to work with Eriﬁli. I’m really excited to be a part of it.

Mrs Davis, who is also president of the Wesley House Players, said Pretext is “an Australian comedy about love and dating that follows a group of three 40-something female friends as they come up with a scheme to attract young men”.

“I was trawling through AustralianPlays.org and found this by Virginia Proud. It’s about older women behaving badly, it’s funny, they are breaking the rules but the characters are very relatable. “I think we are them, or we know them or we are familiar with the circumstances.” Mrs Davis said the cast have really formed a bond since they started working together. “I’m really excited, these ladies are awesome. You’d think they were friends for life. “This show is contemporary and zany, and their friendships are stronger than anything else, even attractive young men...” Mrs Davis said it would be the first of three Wesley House shows to be performed this year. z Pretext will run on March 27, April 3 and 4 from 7.30pm at Wesley Hall, tickets available from 123tix.com.

INDIGENOUS students locked out of higher education because they can’t afford the costs of living in Sydney may find some relief in the next few years. Australia’s first university residential college for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander students is a step closer, thanks to a $1 million City of Sydney grant to the University of Technology Sydney (UTS), with the money set to go towards a 250-bed residential college. The college will have Indigenous identity and culture at its core, and include arts and community spaces; as well as scholarships to meet accommodation costs for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander students. UTS Vice-Chancellor Professor Attila Brungs said the future college will benefit communities across Australia. “The UTS Indigenous Residential College is a transformative, strengths-based initiative that will both inspire more indigenous people to enter higher education and, importantly, celebrate the richness of indigenous heritage and culture and help forge a more inclusive society,” Professor Brungs said.

ART AND CIRCUS TEACHER

IN BRIEF

Making a difference through creative education By NATALIE LEWIS EVERY day is a surprise for Jemima Hall who juggles her role as the Creative and Performing Arts Coordinator at Dubbo College Delroy Campus with being Artistic Director of Circus West. “I currently teach Stage 4 Visual Arts and Stage 5 Performing Arts and Circus,” she explained. This includes ceramics, painting, drawing, Photoshop and circus skills. “Circus is exotic, mystic, exciting and dangerous – however we manage it through structured programs and well-managed risk.” Ms Hall is also qualified to teach Drama, Photography and Digital Media and holds a Bachelor of Education (Secondary: Humanities and Social Sciences) and Bachelor of Arts from the University of Sydney. It was a passion for the arts and social justice that inspired her to follow this path. “I wish to support students at a time of tremendous growth and encourage them to find meaning in their learning by offering new perspectives through the arts,” she told Dubbo Photo News. “It was my experience as an arts education student that gave me new perspectives to empathetically engage with the wider world.” Ms Hall encourages students to explore topics such as culture, identity, time, politics, gender and equality in a nurturing environment. “I am extremely passionate about the power of arts education as my subjects are naturally inclusive since they are activity-based, and support students at their own performance level.” Describing what she loves about her role, Ms Hall said every day is a surprise, and there is always a positive focus. “Teaching is extremely rewarding, seeing students develop and challenge themselves. You don’t always know what you are going to get. Teaching is all about human relationships and growth.

Some days can be challenging but as my best friend’s father once said to me, ‘Tough times don’t last, but tough people do.’” Ms Hall has been in Dubbo since last year after teaching at Marrickville High School for three-and-a-half years. “I moved to Dubbo because my husband got work at the Aboriginal Legal Service and we agreed it would be a rewarding experience to teach in a regional community. “I have absolutely no regrets about moving to Dubbo. The students, the community, my peers and my friends have all welcomed and supported me like I couldn’t believe. I feel very privileged to be able to work with students from primary school levels at Circus West, through to high school at Delroy Campus.” Her role has also led to student collaborations with Dubbo Regional Council and regional artists such as Jack Randell and John Murray working on creative projects at the Dubbo Aquatic and Leisure Centre and Macquarie Home Stay. “I feel incredibly supported and connected within the Central West community. I have also had

the opportunity to work with other circus artists from the state at feature events like Schools Spectacular as well as many other opportunities across the college.” Ms Hall was recently rewarded for her efforts with the Outstanding Beginning Teacher Award which is given by the Professional Teachers’ Council of NSW to recognise the outstanding contribution made by an individual committee member with five years or less teaching experience. “It was extremely unexpected, I am very humbled by the award.” She was nominated by the Visual Art and Design Educators Association (VADEA) for the work she has done over the past three years as a Mentoring/Early Career Support Project Officer. In this capacity, she runs professional learning days for visual art, visual design and photography teachers. “The Visual Arts and Design Educators Association has always supported me throughout my career. They offer professional development for Creative Arts teachers across the state. My role as the mentoring/Early Career Support Project Officer has al-

lowed me to support other beginning teachers during their teaching journey. “I have hosted professional development days, run workshops, provided resources and helped organise the annual conferences for Visual Art and Design Teachers across the state. “This role allows me to network with other professionals, collaborate and develop programs with experts across the field, and explore new pedagogy within our schools. “VADEA is an exceptional teachers’ support group, and I am honoured to have had the privilege of Early Career mentor for three years in a row. In my new role I will endeavour to keep the metropolitan and regional connection strong.” Ms Hall said there is definitely room for more teachers in the Dubbo region and she hopes to continue inspiring others through creative education. “I think that creativity in education is often undervalued. I wish to share my knowledge within school communities to foster creative attitudes and make a difference.”

Macquarie River to operate without review for up to 17 years INDEPENDENT NSW MP Justin Field has revealed through documents provided under freedom of information laws that water sharing plans in some of the state’s most contentious river systems will be significantly amended without a legally required review by the Natural Resources Commission (NRC). This is despite a legal requirement under the Water Management Act 2000 for the NRC to review each water sharing plan within five years of its cease date (water sharing plans have a 10-year duration) and report on whether it has delivered its environmental, economic and social objectives. Evidence given in a NSW Parliament Budget Estimates hearing last week revealed the decision was an “administrative choice” and within NSW Water Minister Melinda Pavey’s discretion to review water sharing plans earlier. When asked to commit to the current NRC review timeline, Minister Pavey refused, responding instead that she will keep an “open mind to community concerns”. “Independent oversight and transparency in water decisions is critical to rebuilding trust in water planning in NSW. The process being taken by the NSW Nationals will only serve to further erode trust while protecting those who benefit from the status quo,” Mr Field said.

JEWELLER

A golden opportunity

By NATALIE LEWIS AS a child, Stuart Gould often went to jewellery stores with his mother but it was a chance encounter that ultimately led to his future employment. “Mum started collecting brooches so she used to be in and out of jewellery stores with me trailing along,” he said. Years later, he was buying a gift when the chance to pursue a sparkling career fell in his lap. “It was curiosity that initially intrigued me,” he said. “I was buying my girlfriend (now wife) a birthday present and I’d just finished school. I wasn’t going in a particular direction and it was an opportunity.” Practical training proved to be the best beginning to Mr Gould’s career as a jewellery craftsman. He started an informal four year apprenticeship in jewellery making in 2005, studying under the now retired Craig Carolan, a fourth generation jeweller. “Craig was the master, and I learnt the majority of things from him but you do form your own techniques. You form a certain way of doing things, once you’ve got an idea of something, you create your own style.” Mr Gould began by cleaning jewellery and worked his way up in the business. “From there I started creating sterling silver pieces. I now work in gold, silver, platinum. I have also done diamond grading

certification.” Two years ago, he became the business owner. “Craig wanted to retire and I’m very happy doing this,” he said. “I never thought I’d be the business owner... In 2010, there was talk of succession and Craig offered me the opportunity. Then I was one year out of my apprenticeship.” Mr Gould’s role running the business has many different angles. “In my position, you are overseeing everything – customers, design, stock levels, manufacture, watch repairs, administration. You also have to keep an eye on precious metal prices. “There’s different aspects of the job. Stone setting, engraving, they are all trades which have their own techniques.” He says a jeweller needs many qualities including patience and precision. “Having a good eye for detail, the ability to reverse engineer pieces as a lot of this job is repairs, not just manufacturing. “Being able to work out an efficient way of restoring something at a good price. It takes a fair percentage of time but you do get great job satisfaction. “Being able to make something from scratch and being able to communicate your ideas. You can just create something, but to create something to last a lifetime is what we like to achieve. “It helps to have an artistic

flair especially for the design aspects. You have to be relatively intelligent. “Perfection is important, little details will make or break a job. That’s what Craig instilled in me.” No two days are the same for Mr Gould and he works long hours. “There’s always something different. It can be stressful but you are always doing the best job. It’s not just to do a good job. “That’s essentially why I do it – for the job satisfaction of creating. You’re not just creating an everyday thing. You are creating something that will continue to be special. “Dates like Christmas, weddings and engagements are busy. You get to sit with people. A lot of people want that bespoke piece but most people also don’t know how complex it is to create a custom-made piece of jewellery. You do get them to see what they like the look of and find what’s unique. “You also need to keep an eye on what’s in vogue. At the moment, it’s very delicate jewellery, traditional, rose gold is still popular.” Risks of the role include working with strong chemicals and metal at high temperatures. Although it is a small industry, there are employment opportunities and Mr Gould currently has vacancies in his Dubbo-based store. Choosing his favourite piece is tricky but he admires jewellery that is well-crafted. Since that

first gift, he has crafted other jewellery for his wife including her engagement and wedding rings. “There are so many things I admire for different reasons,” he said. “I admire things that have been well-designed. I look at the way it’s been created and how they have done it. I love art deco. You

can take it so many different ways, it has a nice look.” Mr Gould said many people don’t realise what goes on behind the scenes in a jewellery store. “There’s a lot of history in jewellery, it’s not just a stone in a piece of metal. It’s a particular design and creation and there’s so much to it.”

Started work at 15, now time to retire By JOHN RYAN REG Langman has been at Fletcher’s 30 years and worked at the old council abattoir for eight years prior to that – this week the 64-year-old worked his last shift at the plant. He said after so long working at constant manual labour, which he loved, it was time to call it a day. “I started work at the old council abattoir at 15 and there’s been some big changes. Just the way you do your sheep, it’s a lot faster now, there’s a lot more sterilisation and stuff compared to the old days,” Mr Langman told Dubbo Photo News. “I’m going to miss all my good mates bigtime, yeah, you make a lot of friends here. I’ve been here for 30 years and made lifelong friends, a lot of people have left and I’m still friends with all those people. “It’s a good occupation, good money, it’s great and I’ve loved it – or I wouldn’t have been here for 30 years!” he said.

THE roses amongst the thorns at Sunday’s Dubbo Black Dog One Day event, three ladies from Warren, Narromine and Dubbo were adamant that events like this to promote the awareness and discussion of men’s mental health issues were vital for social cohesion. Narromine’s Christine Anning was on the ride for a very close personal reason. “Events like this are very much needed, yes, a wonderful thing to do, it’s amazing, every organisation should be doing something like this,” Mrs Anning said. Her Warren mate Tracy Stephens agreed, saying there were many interrelated reasons she was keen to join the ride. “Friends, bike riding, I work in the medical sector as well and men’s mental health is a huge issue and everyone needs to be aware of it and appreciate it and joining groups like this to let everyone know that there’s always somebody there to have a yarn to, it’s so important,” Mrs Stephens said. She’s seen first-hand the negative effects on many men who work in isolation in an agricultural community, often having a job where they’re not working with any other people on a regular basis. The dangers of that isolation have

been recognised and brought to the fore in recent years, thanks to organisations such as the Black Dog Institute and the annual ride. “Absolutely, the awareness has raised in the last 10 years and it’s good that the issue is in the open, that it’s not a taboo subject anymore,” she said. “It’s not something where a lot of blokes think they have to stay at home or that they have to go and sit in the shed by themselves and thinking I won’t talk to anybody, those barriers are really starting to come down which is fabulous.” Dubbo’s Kerrie Murphy agrees, and said too many tragic events have hit far too close to home for her, far too many times. “We’ve lost a couple of good mates to suicide over the last couple of years and also personal issues within our close circle with people dealing with mental health,” Mrs Murphy said. “I think there’s not more issues around male mental health now than there were before, we’re just more aware of it, which is great.” She scanned the crowd with the belief that many of those present had also been affected by tragedy, with those ripples spreading out to negatively impact entire communities. “I think bike riding is a great platform as well because it is something that people enjoy doing anyway and

to use that to facilitate awareness of something that is just so serious, I think is brilliant, absolutely brilliant,” Mrs Murphy said.

Tamworth riders join locals

BLACK DOG RIDERS: Jeff Creamer and Jay Nash

By JOHN RYAN

SUPPORT: Christine Anning, Tracy Stephens, Kerrie Murphy

AFTER finishing their own Black Dog One Day Ride, 20 Tamworth riders stayed in the saddle and made the trek to Dubbo to join in Sunday's event. Former local Jay Nash said the passion for the cause was very strong amongst riders. "We've come across from Tamworth yesterday, we had our Tamworth Black Dog Ride the day before so we came across to meet up with the Dubbo Black Dog Ride, 20 of us," Mr Nash said. "Mate it's great, I've been doing it for three years now and just starting the conversation can help stop people doing tragic things. "People come up to us when we're stopped and want to have a chat, the Black Dog ride really does get people to start talking about something that's such a serious problem worldwide," he said.

Skywriters Project inland anthology book launch Dubbo

Making business ownership easier for Indigenous Australians

LOCAL writers Val Clark, Natalie Holmes and Robert Salt have had their work included in an anthology of stories called “Dark Sky Dreamings”, a collection of inspiring prose and poetry by regional and Australian writers responding to the big sky and wide landscapes of Australia’s Inland Astro-Trail. The book will be launched by publisher Dr David Reiter and anthology editor Merrill Findlay at the Macquarie Regional Library on Saturday, March 28, at 4pm. The launch is free, however bookings are required. Call 6801 4510. Dark Sky Dreaming is a project of the Big Skies Collaboration which creatively celebrates people’s connections with the cosmos in south-eastern Australia’s rural inland.

THE Federal Indigenous Affairs Committee has launched a five-minute survey seeking feedback on ways to make employment and business ownership easier to access for Indigenous Australians. This survey forms part of the committee’s current Inquiry into Pathways and Participation Opportunities for Indigenous Australians in Employment and Business. “A focus of this inquiry is removing barriers, and what better way to start than by removing barriers to participating in the inquiry?” committee chair Julian Leeser said. The Committee plans to announce hearings around regional Australia in the coming weeks as part of the inquiry.

By JOHN RYAN THANKFULLY, the fire emergency sweeping across the eastern states has eased after substantial rain. And while frontline firefighters and other emergency services personnel received plenty of public recognition for their efforts, staff from other agencies deployed across the ravaged areas also provided much-needed relief for hard hit communities. Dubbo Sheriff’s officers who were involved with Operation RFS Assist were deployed across Mudgee,

Moruya, Cooma and Bega Fire Control Centres and worked at a variety of jobs including logistics, finance, communications and operations. Acting Chief Superintendent Daniel Gordon, Acting Regional Commander South West Command of the NSW Sheriff’s Office told Dubbo Photo News he’s proud of his staff for stepping up and moving at short notice to areas that needed all sorts of assistance. “Operation RFS Assist was the Sheriff’s Office operation to provide assistance to the Rural Fire Service where it

was needed most in Incident Management Teams (IMTs) across the state,” Mr Gordon explained. “With more than 89 Sheriff’s Officers and Court Officers being deployed statewide, they collectively provided over 12,600 hours of support to the RFS – this was a massive achievement for a small organisation like ours.” Sheriffs and Court Officers from all over the state have a diverse range of backgrounds and skills, with Mr Gordon praising their willingness to step forward to help commu-

nities near and far. “Our Officers from Dubbo were no exception,” Mr Gordon said. “They are community-minded, putting their hands up straight away to help, whether it was as part of Operation RFS Assist or as local volunteers in their RFS brigades. “It is fantastic to see,” he said. Dubbo Sheriffs who deployed to firegrounds included Pagan Hockley, Mark Johnson, Tracy Hawke, Sharon Dykes and Ann Mastellotto.

NSW Government’s Stronger Country Communities Fund will pay for $250,000 upgrades to playgrounds in Trangie and Tomingley. “Communities in our electorate have been doing it tough through the drought, so it is important that we support them by providing the infrastructure that is needed to keep them thriving,” Member for the Dubbo Electorate Dugald Saunders said. “Playground facilities are important for all towns, but particularly those along major highways where the regular use by local residents is complemented by passing motorists who may be encouraged to stop, rest and spend a bit of time in the town,” he said.

STEPPING ON PROGRAM This program is a unique, research based andproven guide to improve overall health, wellbeing and physical strength whilst creating new social connections and companionship.

The aim of the program is to reduce falls, increase conﬁdence and give people the tools to remain active, safe and independent within their community. The program has a range of guest speakers who may include: occupational therapists, pharmacists, transport and safety presenters. The program runs one day per week over 7 weeks.

EMERGENCY REPORT

Skipping bale: Two round bales that fell from a truck last Saturday night.

NEWS OPINION AND ANALYSIS by JOHN RYAN

Bale out A LOCAL driver had the fright of his life after two round hay bales fell from a truck with one bale narrowly missing his car about 9:30pm last Saturday night. The load spilled while the truck was navigating the Wheelers Lane/ Myall Street roundabout.

Drone dramas I’VE been hearing reports about crooks using drones to case rural properties in the Dubbo area but it’s difficult to pin these anecdotes down because the drones are quiet, elusive, quick moving and difficult if not impossible to trace because they can be remotely controlled from kilometres away. Now Hume police have received reports of drones flying low over rural properties in the around Gundaroo and Gunning and they’re looking into various matters which may be related to the drone activity. The next question to be asked is what happens if a farmers manages to shoot a drone down, especially if it’s being used for a legitimate purpose. This issue will work itself into a real can of worms into the future.

Yeoval aggravated break and enter POLICE are asking the public for information to help them solve an aggravated break-in at Yeoval. In the early hours of March 13 police allege three people armed with crowbars and an axe entered a licensed club on Bathurst Street where

they attempted to smash open an ATM. The trio fled the location in a red/ maroon hatchback car with a small amount of coins from a vending machine. Detectives attached to Orana Mid-Western Police District attended and commenced an investigation. 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.

Obley Road crash LAST Friday, March 13, just before noon, emergency services rushed to a crash on Obley Road which was reported as involving multiple vehicles and which had caused multiple injuries. On arrival at the scene seven kilometres south of Dubbo rescue workers found five occupants in multiple vehicles who had suffered non life-threatening injuries. The victims, three adult and two children, were treated by paramedics before being transported to Dubbo Hospital.

Child abuse charges POLICE have charged a 30-year-old man following an investigation into the alleged sexual assault of a young girl in Condobolin. Last month detectives from the Child Abuse and Sex Crimes Squad commenced an investigation following reports a young girl had been sexually assaulted by a man who was known to her and following extensive investigations they arrested the alleged offender last Wednesday, March 11.

He was taken to Condobolin Police Station and charged with sexual intercourse with child underage of 10 years (DV). The Child Abuse and Sex Crimes Squad is comprised of detectives who are specially trained to investigate matters against children and adults, including sexual assault, serious physical abuse, and extreme cases of neglect.

Line dancers firie donation NARROMINE’S famous USMC Line Dancing Ladies have donated $200 to Narromine Fire Brigade. USMC Line Dancing Ladies presented the cheque to Captain Ewen Jones at Narromine Fire Station when the town’s Retained Firefighters had assembled for drill, the local firies resplendent in their new Fire + Rescue NSW Duty Wear. “The new duty wear is a much darker colour, better quality, and has the new Fire + Rescue NSW logo on both the shirts and pants, it’s very light and comfortable,” Cpt Jones said. “The USMC Line Dancing Ladies have been donating around $100 each year for the past 10 years or so and these donations allow us to purchase many important items and pieces of equipment that are not included in our station budget. “Some of the important items and equipment we have been able to purchase include the community safety message board at the front of Narromine Fire Station, a positive pressure ventilation fan and a metal detector to name but a few,” he said. Cpt Jones said the Brigade was fortunate to receive regular donations from Narromine Men’s Shed, Rotary, Lions, and the Muyigalang Ladies.

Pedestrian compliance

care@dubbodental.com.au • www.dubbodental.com.au

POLICE are concerned about the number of recent fatalities involving pedestrians on the state’s roads. Assistant Commissioner Michael Corboy commands Traffic and Highway Patrol and says the need to consider pedestrian safety has never been greater. “With the pedestrian road toll at 16, 10 more than this time last year, all road users need to be aware of the risks on our roads. “This is a call for all drivers, riders, cyclists, and even pedestrians, to make sure that they are doing all that they can to ensure the safety of themselves, and other road users,” he said.

“Those in vehicles, or on cycles or bikes need to keep a careful look out for pedestrians and give them plenty of time to cross the road, particularly around school zones. We know that young children can be unpredictable, and we all need to ensure we are doing all we can to keep them and others safe,” he said. He’s also calling on pedestrians to consider their own safety by crossing at designated traffic-controlled points, not be distracted by portable devices and keep a proper lookout for other road users. In the last 12 months 56 pedestrians have lost their lives on NSW roads. “All road users need to know the risks and do all they can to keep others safe right across the New South Wales road network,” Mr Corboy said. To optimise safety, police urge pedestrians to: z Always use pedestrian crossings; z Never assume that an approaching vehicle can see you, or will stop for you – wait until all vehicles have stopped before you cross; z At intersections, check for turning vehicles before you leave the kerb, and while you are crossing the road; z Avoid crossing between parked cars or at the front or back of buses; z Wear bright, light coloured clothing at night or in reduced visibility conditions; z Avoid using a mobile phone or portable media player (so you can hear vehicles and concentrate on crossing the road).

Driver fatigue targeted A LANDMARK study analysing truck driver performance behind the wheel has provided a worldfirst window into fatigue and distraction among truck drivers and will enable driver-monitoring technology to detect and alert both fatigue and distraction with greater precision. Researchers from Monash University’s Accident Research Centre (MUARC) in partnership with Seeing Machines, Ron Finemore Transport and Volvo Trucks Australia, tested fatigue prevention and driver-monitoring technology in working fleet trucks on the road, and in a new purpose-built truck simulator based at MUARC to measure truck driver performance. With the direct input of Ron Finemore Transport, the team fitted 10 fleet trucks with the technology and monitored drivers for nine months. More than 100 drivers en-

rolled in the study collectively making 22,000 trips across more than 1.5 million kilometres resulting in the largest and most comprehensive study of its kind in the world. In this study, Seeing Machines’ automotive grade technology was used alongside Guardian, to study driver behaviour and the team was able to accurately detect the drivers’ level of fatigue well before a safety critical event like a microsleep occurred. They also tested distraction monitoring in real-time – and the technology can now detect where the driver is looking, in a never done before breakthrough innovation. The team also created a comprehensive distraction warning system for drivers. Associate Professor and MUARC associate director Michael Fitzharris said it’s the first time this type of technology has been tested in a fleet of trucks going about their normal business operations. “Because of this, drowsiness and distraction can be detected earlier and with incredibly high accuracy,” Professor Fitzharris said. “Driver monitoring systems of this type and sophistication will have significant road safety benefits, not just for trucks but for future passenger vehicles.” Ron Finemore Transport managing director Mark Parry said the company was extremely proud to have been part of a project that addresses a critical need to develop validated solutions to better manage truck driver behaviour and safety. “This technology is central to Ron Finemore’s approach to safety,” Mr Parry said. “The company places the highest priority on safety and this technology gives us the tools to ensure our drivers are operating safely and efficiently. “By allowing researchers to work with our truck drivers directly, they now have a detailed understanding of their tasks, needs, and driving environments,” he said.

Static RBT stopped THIS isn’t a green light for people to drive while under the influence of alcohol or illicit drugs, but NSW police have suspended static Random Breath Testing as one social distancing strategy. Patrol cars will still conduct tests on an as-needed basis, but it shows just how seriously authorities are beginning to take the ongoing COVID-19 crisis. z Send your news tips to john.ryan@panscott.com.au or 0429 452 245 txt is best

HELPING KIDS COPE

Talking to kids about COVID-19 By LYDIA PEDRANA CHILDREN and young people are not immune to the stress caused by the unfolding COVID-19 crisis according to psychology and mental health experts. As the situation continues to dominate media headlines, social media feeds and everyday conversations, parents are being reminded on how best to approach the topic with their kids. Psychologist and director of Macquarie Health Collective (MHC) Dubbo, Tanya Forster, said times like this can be â&#x20AC;&#x153;scary and confusingâ&#x20AC;? for children. She also understands itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s difficult for parents to feel at ease when there is danger around them. Mrs Forster suggests asking children open questions about what they have heard, then listening to your child while being honest in a child-friendly way, demonstrating how they can protect themselves and their friends, offering reassurance and finding time to do fun things as strategies to help kids cope with the heightened level of stress within the community. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Invite your child to talk about the issue, find out how much they already know and follow their lead,â&#x20AC;? she told Dubbo Photo News. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Most importantly, donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t minimise or avoid their concerns; be sure to acknowledge their feelings and sure them that itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s natural to feel scared about these things.â&#x20AC;? When talking about the COVID-19 outbreak, Mrs Forster is an advocate for truth and appropriate language. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Children have a right to truthful information about whatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s going on in the world, but adults also have a responsibility to keep them safe from distress,â&#x20AC;? she said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Try to use age appropriate language, watch their reactions, and be sensitive to their level of anxiety.â&#x20AC;? Mrs Forster also highlighted that children may find it difficult to distinguish between the scenes they see on television and what is happening in their own personal reality and as a result, feel as if they are in imminent danger. Their feelings can be managed by maintaining a level of normality throughout this period and of-

IN BRIEF

Electric vehicle fast charging now in Coona THE NRMA has expanded its network of electric vehicle fast charging stations in its Centenary year with the installation of a charger at Coonabarabran, launched on Monday, March 9. The fast charger will allow most EV motorists to fully charge their cars in about 30 minutes. Standard public EV chargers take between three and six hours, and traditional power outlets can take more than 12 hours. The charger is located at the Visitor Information Centre Car Park on the Newell Highway and is the stateâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s 29th NRMA electric vehicle fast charging station.

Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s suggested that parents and carers ask children open questions about what they have heard about coronavirus, then listen to your child while being honest in a child-friendly way.

fering reassurance. â&#x20AC;&#x153;You can help your children cope with the stress by making opportunities for them to play and relax, when possible,â&#x20AC;? Mrs Forster said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Keep regular routines and schedules as much as possible, especially before they go to sleep, or help create new ones in a new environment. â&#x20AC;&#x153;If you are experiencing an outbreak in your area, remind your children that they are not likely to catch the disease, that most people who do have coronavirus donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t get very sick, and that lots of adults are working hard to keep your family safe.â&#x20AC;? Finally, Mrs Forster advised parents and carers to finish conversations with care, knowing that a child is not left in a state of distress. â&#x20AC;&#x153;As your conversation wraps up, try to gauge their level of anxiety by watching their body language, considering whether theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re using their usual tone of voice and watching their breathing,â&#x20AC;? she said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Remind your children that they can have other difficult con-

Fun activities may help MRS FORSTERâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;S list of fun activities that may help if children are feeling worried: z Turn off the news z Do some exercise like go for a walk or a bike ride z Do some mindfulness (you could use the Smiling Mind App) z Write in your journal z Clean your room z Listen to music z Listen to a podcast z Read a book z Watch a fun movie with the family z Play a board game z If you are worried, talk to someone about how you are feeling. Headspace has also released an information guide for young people affected by stress related to the novel coronavirus. The guide reminds young people that feeling overwhelmed at the moment is completely normal and while staying up to date with what is happening is helpful, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s

also okay to switch off from the 2-hour media cycle if it is getting too much. The material also reassures youth that feelings of denial, anger, frustration, confusion, fear, anxiety and sadness are all common. Additionally, Headspace suggests young people do things that make them feel physically and emotionally safe, engage in activities from promote and sense of calm and feeling grounded, maintain a healthy mind and if it all gets too much, talk to a trusted adult.

Car convoy to inject funds into regions

Cale Oval, Narromine earmarked for $309,478 in upgrades

By LYDIA PEDRANA AROUND 200 people are preparing to pack into 90 old two-wheeldrive cars for a week-long trek from Wagga Wagga to Wamuran to raise funds for the Royal Flying Doctor’s Service. The annual Outback Car Trek, now in its 31st year, has raised more than $30 million for the iconic charity which not only performs outback emergency retrievals, but also delivers vital primary healthcare to every corner of Australia. The Trek is also expected to bring a welcome boost to regional economies, including Dubbo, with trekkers spending around $575,000 in previous years. Last week a few of the colourful cars gathered at Bondi Beach to raise awareness of the medical disadvantages faced by those living in rural and remote Australia including distance, cost and transport availability. Organiser Bill Patrick hoped that city people understood the importance of bridging the gap to ensure all Australians had access to simple medical treatment. “The RFDS is always there for regional and remote communities in their time of need, and it’s important that people in metro areas support that work,” he said. For perspective, the life expectancy for residents in regional towns in two years lower than those in the city. Furthermore, hospital admis-

sion rates due to diabetes are four times the urban admission rate, the rural death rates are double the urban rate due to injury, triple due to road accidents and double due to falls in the aged. Rural and regional residents also have a lower chance of surviving cancer and are more likely

to die by suicide. Setting off on May 30 from Wagga, the convoy will pass through Lake Cargelligo, Cobar, Dubbo, Gunnedah, Kingaroy and end up in Wamuran on June 6. Mike Wheatley has been on every trek since its inception in 1990 and said he “wouldn’t miss

it for the world”. “People living in the outback just don’t have the same opportunities and access to healthcare as we do here in the city,” Mr Wheatley said. “The RFDS is working to bring equality to the bush. It’s important we support them as best we can.”

MEMBER for Dubbo Dugald Saunders met with Narromine Shire Council mayor Craig Davies and staff at Cale Oval recently to announce the oval’s upgrade funding. Included in the upgrades will be a multipurpose court, outdoor exercise station, concrete path connections, a new netball club amenities building and outdoor furniture. “This funding will allow the complex to expand from its current usage, largely centred around football codes, and cater for a larger cross section of the Narromine community,” Dundas Park’s playground will also receive $250,000 for an upgrade to include accessible and engaging options for families. The government says $100 million has been distributed across regional NSW, with regional communities set to benefit from over 550 new projects.

Support for moratorium on Santos’ Narrabri Gas Project DEVELOPING clear rules for accessing farmers’ land and developing a system to consult with communities are two of 14 recommendations by the NSW Chief Scientist found to have been overlooked by the Santos Narrabri Gas Project. Independent NSW MP Justin Field has been quick to call on fellow NSW MPs to back a legislated moratorium on coal seam gas after confirmation the NSW Planning Minister Rob Stokes had moved to refer the controversial Project to the State’s Independent Planning Commission. “The Government has had five years to fix this and they’ve failed. It’s time for the Parliament to act and I’ll be pushing for the Coal Seam Gas Moratorium Bill to be debated in the March sitting of Parliament to press pause on this industry,” Mr Field said. NSW Country Women’s Association has also called on the NSW Government to take steps to end the Narrabri Gas Project.

SOME businesses are moving rapidly to keep the tills ticking over as the fear factor from the Coronavirus pandemic hits home locally. Domino’s Pizza reacted quickly, with Dubbo customers able to order and pay for a pizza online or over the phone and have it delivered without having to make any close contact with the delivery driver. Domino’s shift runner Kevin Moda said it’s a great initiative. “It’s a contactless delivery, so the delivery is made without any physical contact with the customer so they just take the pizza with them and put it on the ground on top of an empty pizza box, so the actual pizza doesn’t touch the floor,” Mr Moda told Dubbo Photo News. “They leave the pizza there and then give a call to the customer to let them know their pizza is there and they move a few metres away from the pizza and that’s how it works.” Mr Moda says customers are responding positively to

the new mode of delivery. “We’re getting more and more contactless deliveries and it’s important that businesses can identify customer concerns and react by changing up to innovative methods, and quickly,” Mr Moda said. “It really is more comfort-

able for the people that want takeaway food and don’t want to have near contact. “It’s good for our business and it’s good for the drivers because they don’t have to be in contact with as many people,” he said. He believes it’s just com-

mon sense to be able to minimise risks as a business and potentially help slow down the spread of the disease. “All businesses should do whatever they can to minimise these risks, they need to go above and beyond,” he said.

TOURISM TURMOIL

Kombi Rainbow still hoping to go ahead By JOHN RYAN ORGANISERS of smaller events such as the Kombi Kruise scheduled for Dubbo during Easter are hoping the Coronavirus lockdown doesn’t prevent them from going ahead. The Kombi Club of Australia’s Deb Maxwell says the fact it’s run in the open air, which allows for plenty of social distancing, will make it a far lower-risk activity. “At this time we are still coming to Dubbo at Easter unless Dubbo decides to go into lockdown,” Mrs Maxwell told Dubbo Photo News. The club has changed its parading route around Dubbo for the signature

Kombi Kruise on Easter Saturday. The morning will start with the traditional group photo shoot which will be staged at the Westview Drive In. “Then we will drive from there along the Newell Highway/Victo-

ria St, left at Macquarie St, right into Talbragar St, right into Darling, left into Wingewarra continuing onto Wheelers Lane, left at Wellington Rd and left into Windsor Rd finishing at the Botanical Gardens where the Kombis will park up,” Mrs Maxwell said.

learn who and what is important to you, and you learn that, even though they are family, maybe they are not the best people to have around you. “I’m pretty lucky myself, I have a fiancé and her family loves me as well and they’re very cool about it,” he said. Mr Brown found his strength through seeking support at youth mental health organisation, Headspace Dubbo. Headspace provided counselling and helped Mr Brown connect with likeminded individuals. “I was a very, very sick young man about four years ago and I actually went through Headspace and so I know all about how much they do for the community and how much they help and what they offer to sort of get better,” he said. “I can tell you now from where I was four years ago to now, it’s a drastic change, but a good one.” Now, he is using his negative experience as stimulus to help others by spearheading Headspace Dubbo’s latest initiative. “We’re about to start Rainbow Connection, it’s little group we are putting together for over 18s in the LGBTIQA+ community here in Dubbo,” Mr Brown explained. “We’re putting the group together because we think there’s a lack of support for people over 18 to be able to spend time together and get to know each other.

“Basically what it is, I’m jumping in the ring because I’ve been through a bit of those kind of issues in the community and it’s just for us to all get together and make friends, make connections, give support from people who really understand what is going on and always make sure everyone always has someone to be able to fall back on.” Proving that education is key, Mr Brown acknowledged that the attitude among the wider community towards LGBTIQA+ people had improved in the last few years. “I moved here in 2016 and from when I moved here to now in 2020, the acceptance of people is just so much better,” he said. “Now when I talk to people (about being transgender), or I say it to them, instead of jumping straight to the conclusion, they’re actually more interested in asking questions and learning so then if they have someone in a similar situation, they then have the knowledge to pass it on. “Most people, they don’t care who, what, where or how, they just want people to be happy.” He also offered some advice to young people in the LGBTIQA+ community who are facing adversity. “Don’t be afraid to reach out,” he said. “Don’t be afraid to find somebody to help, because the help is there and there are so many people willing to help.”

WATER MANAGEMENT

NSF restrictions may ease

in creeks and gullies, raise water levels and rehydrate floodplains and underground aquifers. In Australia, over-grazing and land clearing have caused landscapes to dehydrate, creating eroded and degraded watercourses, and an increased susceptibility to drought and bushfires. To repair these watercourses, the Mulloon Institute facilitates the construction of leaky weirs and related landscape rehydration works such as embankment restoration and watercourse plantings. Currently it takes months or years to get approval for a single leaky weir which means submissions from each landowner to multiple departments along with and costly expert reports. Mr Nairn says the time and costs of complying with the necessary

approvals and reporting requirements can be three to four times higher than the cost of building the landscape rehydration works themselves. “With drought still crippling some areas of rural NSW, some severely impacted by the recent bushfires, and some dealing with flooding rains, never has effective water management been so crucial for our agricultural industry and sustainable environmental management. “For farmers and graziers, landscape rehydration is a scientifically backed drought-proofing method of improving conditions on their properties and, importantly, allowing for returns to be generated in periods of severe drought, as we’ve recently seen,” Mr Nairn said.

The Mulloon Institute is keen to see improved biodiversity, water quality and supply and believes its NSF landscape rehydration structures fulfil these mandates. “We’d like to see the legislation adjusted to recognise the value of these works and allow compliant projects to proceed with necessary certification attained later,” Mr Nairn said. “Landscape rehydration initiatives leave us with landscapes better equipped to withstand drought, less susceptible to bushfires, and more environmentally sound. “To achieve these benefits, we believe facilitating landscape rehydration works through legislative reform should be a key priority of the NSW Government,” he said.

Luncheon & Fashion Parade

AFTER decades of making it almost impossible for landholders to rehydrate their properties, the Mulloon Institute could be creating a major breakthrough to allow farmers to slow down the water in their creeks to ensure it stays in the landscape. The NSW Government will actively consider amending water and planning legislation to facilitate the construction of more landscape rehydration works across the State for catchment-scale landscape repair, drought and bushfire prevention, according to Mulloon Institute chairman Gary Nairn. “We are delighted to have received commitments from Ministers Stokes and Pavey to actively consider implementation of the amendments we are proposing,” Mr Nairn said. “We would like to see a situation where, as long as the works comply with NSW codes, our farmers can just get out there, build these structures and repair their land.” Mulloon has created a broad scale Natural Sequence Farm-

ing (NSF) project across multiple properties and thousands of hectares at Bungendore, near the ACT. Representatives met with NSW Planning Minister Rob Stokes and NSW Water Minister Melinda Pavey recently to discuss adjustments to the current compliance processes hindering farmers from building much needed landscape rehydration structures. “Landscape rehydration structures work to re-establish Australia’s natural wetlands, chains of ponds and swampy meadows and the resultant rehydrated landscapes significantly increase resilience to drought and decrease susceptibility to bushfire,” he said. Former federal cabinet minister Nairn said the Institute’s proposed amendments would make leaky weirs and related rehydration works ‘exempt’ or ‘complying’ developments, which in turn would expedite the establishment of landscape rehydration works while meeting necessary regulations. The most commonly used land rehydration structures are ‘leaky weirs’, engineered natural structures that slow the flow of water

THE TOONS’ VIEWS

Need more balanced, equitable water sharing The Editor, Dubbo Regional Council (DRC) apparently issued a media release on Wednesday, March 4, to promote a public meeting scheduled for 9am to 10.30am on Tuesday, March 10, to brief the public on DRC and Water NSW’s ongoing drought measures. I heard the mayor on a radio news bulletin later in the day stating the meeting was called to address comments in the local print media that in his view were “nonsense”. To council’s credit, the meeting was made available online, where it can be accessed by the public at any time, but the timing of the face to face meeting (wouldn’t have allowed many interested people to attend). It was later reported that about 40 people were in attendance, the majority of which I suspect were staffers. No one was allowed to HAVE YOUR SAY: feedback@dubbophotonews.com.au or 89 Wingewarra St, Dubbo 2830. Letters to the editor are best limited to no more than 250 words and may be edited for clarity, space or legal reasons.

question the speakers during their presentations, a clear indication they didn’t want to be challenged publicly for their management of Burrendong Dam during the past three years of drought. The promos for each speaker highlighted their academic credentials and long-time public service. DRC CEO Michael McMahon laid total blame for our water crisis on the drought, completely avoiding the fact that Burrendong was full three years ago. Water NSW systems operations manager Adrian Langdon also blamed all of Dubbo’s water woes on the drought, but did reveal where most of the water from Burrendong went. A pie chart Mr Langdon displayed showed the Dam was full in 2016-17. Since then, eight per cent went in river flows, six per cent went in General Security (GS) environmental flows, 38 per cent went as flood water on the flood plain, 18 per cent went to GS irrigation, four per cent went as Environmental Water Allowances, two per cent went as Critical Needs delivery and 20 per cent went as ‘other flows to the Marshes’, Mr Langdon’s figures totalled

96 per cent. The other four per cent was unaccounted for. Based on those figures, 78 per cent of the water from Burrendong over the past three years has gone to the environment. The irrigators, i.e. food and fibre producers, got 18 per cent and the towns got what was left or thereabouts as no one seems to know where the other four per cent went. In my view, this drought man-

agement briefing from all these big wigs appeared to be just a massive butt covering exercise. Not one of the people who spoke at the meeting mentioned a word about retaining an adequate supply in the Dam in future to prevent the water restrictions debacle we are now experiencing. At the DRC elections in September, we need to get people in there who will stand up and demand

the NSW Government secures our water supply for the future and doesn’t allow the green dictatorship to hold sway as it does at present. We need a more balanced and equitable share across all sectors of the community if we are to have sustainable and healthy advancement into the future. Steve Hodder, Dubbo

A sneeze in China has Australians doomed John Ryan ❚ OPINION AUSTRALIA’S supply chains have proven to be as fragile as a house of cards the past couple of weeks, with panic-buying of toilet paper sparking public brawls and calls for calm across the nation. It’s driven home the fact that people have come a long way from the self-sufficiency of just a few generations ago, when a large percentage of the population had vegetable gardens, chooks and maybe a lamb or goat to mow the lawns for the milking cow. Now, with the population used to shopping 24/7, Australians have become used to buying food and supplies as needed. It’s also hitting home that there are so many items we no longer make in this country, such as glass. One builder told me this week that he won’t be able to build houses without windows, which are mostly made in China. Already he’s finding it difficult to get a range of products including the roller slides for kitchen drawers, an innocuous but critical part of homes. Until the Great Toilet Paper Stampede of 2020, most Australians wouldn’t have believed how fine a line our society daily steps between abundance and anarchy. Australia imports about 90 per cent of all refined fuel product from overseas and has, by many estimates, less than a month’s reserves and without diesel the national transport task would grind to a halt in far less time than that. With almost everyone in Aus-

tralia relying on the ‘justin-time’ inventory systems for food, fuel, clothing and almost everything else, the financial and social impacts will make the current shortages look like the good old days. Very few businesses will be spared a massive economic hit – already many gatherings including local events such as the Titan Mud Run, Dubbo Motorbike Rally and Classic Cars and Coffee have been called off or at the least, postponed. Martial arts, childcare centres and day care, service club meetings and functions, Eisteddfods, dance studios, basketball, netball, work travel in the public and private sectors (international and domestic) and all other sporting competitions, even down to the local Amnesty branch meetings, are either under threat or postponed until the crisis passes, and that means locals jobs and a breakdown in community participation. At our deadline time cinemas, schools, theatres and nursing homes were facing an uncertain 2020. Supermarkets have seen massive spikes in demand as have chemists and health food shops with people trying to build up their immune systems. Dubbo has seen an explosion in people stocking up on all sorts of vitamins and health foods in a bid to boost immune systems. Chemist Warehouse’s Albert Ly says many people are taking more notice of their health as the international crisis unfolds.

“We have seen a surge of customers coming in the pharmacy to request immune-defence products and they include supplements containing Vitamin C, olive leaf, garlic, Echinacea, zinc, Androgra-

` With almost everyone in Australia relying on the ‘just-in-time’ inventory systems for food, fuel, clothing and almost everything else, the financial and social impacts will make the current shortages look like the good old days... a

phis and many more,” Mr Ly said. “These vitamins supplement a healthy diet and lifestyle to improve one’s immune system to better combat and protect the body from cold and flu symptoms.” He said the business stocks many of the bestknown brands and people are keen to find their favourite labels. The most serious issue is facing Australia is human health. Dubbo Photo News put some questions to local MP Dugald Saunders after being told some disquieting information from wellplaced people in the health department that Dubbo Hospital is so short of gowns and masks that staff are wearing the same equipment all day with risks of cross contamination, supplies of these items were being stored under lock and key. Mr Saunders said he’s spoken to senior staff within the Dubbo Health Service and there is no shortage of supplies at Dubbo Hospital. He didn’t comment on the question of whether the health department is gearing up for a potential 5000 hospitalisations in Dubbo, but the predictions of people who’ll need hospital beds across the nation are mind-boggling. Meantime, as reported in to-

day’s Dubbo Photo News, Mark Hawke is one bloke who’s felt the immediate and future shocks from the disruption to events and stock markets. Recently retired, “Hawkey” is currently in Melbourne with two tickets to a non-existent Formula 1 Grand Prix and 10 days at an expensive hotel he no longer needs. Adding to that short-term pain, he said the stock market crash has wiped tens of thousands from his superannuation. He’s still smiling and says you have to remain positive while the world seems to be going to hell in a handbasket. As shortages of all manner of goods worsens, maybe the world can take a lesson from Cuba. While global supply chains control the way business is done, and profits are made across most of the planet, the tiny island nation of Cuba has spent the past few decades moving to small organic farms and local supply chains. Now they have all the basic necessities of life when anything goes awry in the global system of supply. In World War II many countries encouraged citizens to start Victory Garden so people and communities could feed themselves by developing localised food security. Maybe as a nation we need to rethink the way we do business. And design a new normal for our society, one that isn’t so interconnected that a sneeze in China spells doom in Australia. z Note: John Ryan is also a councillor on Dubbo Regional Council.

Your Country Your Voice Last week, the Australian Government announced a $17.62 billion stimulus package which is focussed on minimising worker lay-offs and keeping local people in jobs by helping businesses stay afloat. There's been a need to find the balance between giving the economy a boost without sending us into a debt sprial. More support will be needed before we are through this. Below is a brief summary on how the package might help you. FOR SMALL TO MEDIUM SIZED BUSINESSES Instant asset write off: â&#x20AC;˘ The instant asset write off for businesses will be increased from $30,000 to $150,000. This allows assets to be written-off for taxation purposes in the year they are purchased instead of over several years, providing an immediate tax benefit. â&#x20AC;˘

An additional 50% depreciation acceleration for businesses with a turnover of less than $500 million. CASH PAYMENTS â&#x20AC;˘ â&#x20AC;˘

One-off tax-free payments of $750 will be made for aged pensioners and social security recipients.

SMALL TO MEDIUM SIZED BUSINESSES THAT EMPLOY STAFF Cash-flow assistance: â&#x20AC;˘ Cash boosts of between $2,000 and $25,000 for small and medium sized businesses that employ staff. â&#x20AC;˘

ASSISTANCE FOR SEVERELY-AFFECTED REGIONS â&#x20AC;˘

â&#x20AC;˘

Payments will be made into existing accounts from 31st March, 2020.

50% wage subsidies for small businesses (with less than 20 staff ) that employ apprentices.

A regional community support fund of $1 billion has been set up to support regions and communities most affected by the coronavirus.

This includes communities heavily reliant on industries such as tourism, agriculture and education.

DEEMING RATES LOWERED FOR PENSIONERS â&#x20AC;˘

The deeming rates for pensioners have been lowered meaning more money in the pockets of retirees.

The Fairbridge Childrenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Park officially opened on Sunday on the Mitchell Highway near Molong. The park recognises all the children that passed through the Fairbridge Farm over the years. The children came to Australia as child migrants from Britain. Some knew the families they were leaving behind, some werenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t aware of them. The story of child migration to Australia is a story of good intentions that all too often had devastating consequences. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a story close to the heart of my family. My grandmother was one of the â&#x20AC;&#x153;Lost Children of the Empireâ&#x20AC;? â&#x20AC;&#x201C; sent from England as a young girl through the Barnardos organisation after her mother passed away after giving birth. Until the records were opened up in the 1980â&#x20AC;&#x2122;s my grandmother had no idea of the large family she had back in England. She got to visit them before she passed away. Except to her small circle of â&#x20AC;&#x153;Barnardo Girlsâ&#x20AC;?, she never spoke of her experiences. I asked my Mum about this once. She said it wasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t spoken about because my grandmother felt that there was a stigma. That somehow being sent away as a child migrant or her familyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s past meant that there was something wrong with her. That she wasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t good enough. My grandmother was an amazing woman and we are of course immensely proud of the odds she overcame and all that she achieved in her long and productive life. But it highlights the deep impact child migration had on kids and the lies they were often told about their families. The Fairbridge children should be proud of all they have achieved and their contribution to our country. This park recognises their journey, their experiences (some positive, some shocking) and this significant contribution. The Federal Government is putting in $150,000 for the associated war memorial that commemorates the 90 Fairbridigians who served their county in the armed services.

The coronavirus outbreak is obviously very concerning, but Australians have always been very resilient, and getting through tough times is something weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re used to doing. Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll get through this as well, I can promise you that. The key is not to panic and calmly work through the local issues as they arise. Our health authorities can assist in keeping everyone calm by being open and transparent on local coronavirus cases. The three cases that came to light in Orange last week were confirmed on Tuesday, but the health authorities didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t make this known until Friday after my office (and probably others as well) started seeking confirmation of rumours sweeping the city. I should point out that last weekâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s cases did not go through the Orange Health Service (hospital) and it was not up to the hospital to make a public statement on it. It was up to the NSW Government. Our health authorities are going to be greatly tested over the coming weeks and months and we need to support their efforts. I certainly do. Everyoneâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s doing their best but my friendly and constructive request of the NSW health authorities is that they help stop rumours and panic by providing open, transparent and timely information on local coronavirus cases. Please just give us the facts. We can handle it!

They were in awe of the many ways Mother Nature was bouncing back, repairing what fire had damaged. These are some of his photos.

West Dubbo waterfall: Steve and Kathleen were out for a walk in the rain about 3pm on Saturday, March 14. Steve explained: “We happened to pass along the riverbank opposite the Baird Street stormwater outlet and caught a rare glimpse of the West Dubbo Waterfall.” Nice to see!

Signs of life: It what seems like another sign that the recent rain is helping our part of the world recover, Dubbo Photo News readers Susie and Dave Wade took these photos of what they assume are burrowing frog tadpoles out at Beni State Conservation area on Sunday. “We were very surprised to see them. My ﬁve-year-old daughter has never seen tadpoles before,” the Wades added.

The idea of Go Figure is to arrive at the ﬁgures given at the bottom and right-hand columns of the diagram by following the arithmetic signs in the order they are given (that is, from left to right and top to bottom). Use only the numbers below the diagram to complete its blank squares and use each of the nine numbers only once.

Place a number in the empty boxes in such a way that each row across, each column down and each small 9-box square contains all of the numbers from one to nine.

ODDS, ENDS & INSPIRATION STRANGE BUT TRUE

z In the mood for a looong vacation? Consider the planet Uranus. Its summer lasts 21 Earth years. z It takes 2650 litres of water to make a cotton shirt. To put that in perspective, the amount of water needed to make a T-shirt is enough for one person to stay hydrated for 900 days, while the amount necessary to create a pair of jeans is equivalent to hosing down your lawn for nine hours straight. z The official colour of the San Francisco’s famous Golden Gate Bridge is “International Orange”. z Speaking of that delightful hue, Alexander the Great washed his hair in saffron to keep it shiny and orange. z The world’s least-common surnames include Sallow, Miracle and Relish, while extinct sur-

names include Bread, Spinster and Bythesea (By the sea). z Your navel contains thousands of bacteria that form an ecosystem the size of an entire rainforest. z Ever wondered about those ridges along the edges of some coins? They were the brainchild of Sir Isaac Newton, who while warden of the Royal Mint in 1696 used the reeded edges to help combat theft and counterfeiters. z After the hip-hop duo OutKast coined the phrase “shake it like a Polaroid picture” in their hit song “Hey Ya!” Polaroid released this statement: “Shaking or waving can actually damage the image.” z Just like ﬁngerprints, no two tongue prints are alike. z Thought for the Day: “I don’t need a friend who changes when I change and who nods when I nod;

my shadow does that much better.” – Plutarch

NOW HERE’S A TIP z Most people wash their sheets, and some people fluff and air out their pillow. But how many properly clean their mattress? Vacuum the mattress surface at least every three months. Sprinkle with baking soda to absorb any odours. z “I use my panini press to make hash browns because I like them nice and crispy on both sides. It works out great!” – L.R. z If you’re adding fruit to muffins or quick breads, just make sure you toss them in flour first. It will keep them from sinking to the bottom, distributing them more evenly throughout the bread. z Need more storage in a small bathroom? Try installing a shelf

over the door. It’s an out of the way area where you can store items you don’t need daily, but do need accessible. z Use a serrated knife to cut the dome tops off of cake layers, then put them in the freezer for 30 minutes. It will make it easier to frost, and you’ll get less crumbs that come up. z “I often get up during the night to take medicine to help me sleep better. It’s hard to see and line up the marks to open the container. So I got a permanent black marker and highlighted them (I even made them larger). Now it’s easy to line them up in the dark.” – D.E. z You can use a light mist of 1/4 vinegar and 3/4 water to polish chrome bath and kitchen ﬁxtures. Spray and buff smudges away. z Send your tips to now-heresa-tip@dubbophotonews.com.au

DUBBO REGIONAL CYCLING FACILITY

Dubbo Regional Cycling Facility is now open!

By YVETTE AUBUSSON-FOLEY IT’S been a week since the Dubbo Regional Cycling Facility was officiated with a plaque unveiling on site at a formal gathering which included Dubbo Regional Council councillors and staff, Dubbo MP Dugald Saunders, Cycling NSW CEO Graham Seers and Cycling Australia’s UCI International Commissaire Peter Tomlinson, Dubbo Cycle Club members and the general community. UCI (Union Cycliste Internationale) is the world governing body of cycling. Mr Tomlinson told Dubbo Photo News he was very satisfied with the end result and able to check off his list of essential requirements to ensure the track was safe and to the highest standards. For Cycling NSW CEO Graham Seers, a former Australian Olympic cyclist, it was his second official visit to the facility in under a month, having already attended the 2020 NSW U9-U13 Junior Track Championships held there in early February. The Dubbo Cycle Club is of great significance to Cycling NSW as Dubbo riders have been selected to represent NSW at the 2020 Cycling Australia Junior Track National Championships in Brisbane on March 18 to 22. They are Kurt Eather (Elite Men – Endurance), Haylee Fuller (U19 Women – Endurance), Dylan Eather (U19 Men – Endurance), Daniel Barber (U19 Men – Sprint), Zara Fuller (U17 Women) and Isabelle

Russell (U15 Women). Dubbo Cycle Club coach Vaughn Eather has also been named a coach for the NSW junior squad. 2019 NSW U17 Cyclist of the Year Danny Barber, Dubbo’s Young Sportsperson of the Year and also multiple national road cycling champion Haylee Fuller, Isabelle Russell and Zara Fuller all gave demonstration rides during the official opening ceremony. Member for the Dubbo Electorate Dugald Saunders paid tribute to the Dubbo Cycle Club’s president Mathew Gilbert, and the club’s committee, who worked closely with Dubbo Regional Council to ensure the track was to a high standard. “The Dubbo Regional Cycling facility is a massive investment for the future of the sport in our region with state-of-the-art facilities for our local cyclists and showcasing facilities that Cycling Australia says are worthy of hosting many major state and national championships. “The NSW Government is proud to have invested almost $4.3 million into this project, which gives Dubbo Cycle Club a facility befitting its standing within the cycling community,” Mr Saunders said. He also hinted at the facility’s future growth. “I think there will be more investment into the facility in the future,” Mr Saunders said. Cr Shields praised the quality of the facility as one the city can be

proud of in keeping with the city’s image of offering the best possible opportunities. The new cycling facility was jointly funded by the NSW Government and Dubbo Regional Council. To date the Dubbo Cycle Club has produced world champions and national track and road stars over the past century and was

last year named the winner of Cycling Australia’s Australian Club Premiership. Dubbo’s most famous cycling name Bob Spears trained on the original Victoria Park track before winning the world sprint championship in the 1920s and claiming a string of European victories. Dubbo’s new state-of-art cycling facility includes a 400-metre oval

and circuit track, 1000-metre criterium track, clubhouse and building facilities, storage areas, access roads, car parking and lighting. “This complex will work in well with the planned sports hub, to be located on land at Charles Sturt University, which the NSW Government has funded through $23.3 million of direct and indirect grants,” Mr Saunders said.

Contributed by ALAN NELSON DUBBO RSL Indoor Bowls Club held their Open Pairs Championships on Sunday, March 8. Winners on the day were Sue Green and Alan Nelson whilst runners up were Peter Leslie and Sue Staines. All matches were keenly contested and thanks go to all players who

made the event a resounding success. Anyone interested in coming along to try their hand at social indoor bowls should call the Secretary Margaret Chaseling on 6885 5899 for further information on dates and times. The club is able to supply all equipment unless you prefer to play with your own.

Dubbo RSL Indoor Bowling Club will be holding an afternoon introductory session for prospective new players on the afternoon of Tuesday, March 24. The session commences at 3pm in the RSL Auditorium and is a chance for people to come along and ﬁnd out if indoor bowling is for them. It is reasonably gentle exercise and is great for those who might ﬁnd more energetic sports a bit beyond them. Despite this, it is like any other sport in that it offers a challenge to become competent and consistent. The introductory session will be run by experienced bowlers who will be able to show newcomers how to play. You will only need to show up as all equipment is provided and there is no charge. – Alan Nelson

THE unfolding COVID-19 situation isn’t just impacting sport on a national level, but also at grassroots. Several budding athletes from Dubbo were left disappointed after qualifying for the NSW Little Athletics Championships last week, only to have the event cancelled at the eleventh hour. Many of the 37 kids who had qualified had travelled to Sydney for the competition before the coronavirus outbreak forced organisers to call it off. Michelle Gooch, a member of the Dubbo Athletics Club committee and mother to promising athlete Millie, had arrived in Parramatta when they heard the news. Mrs Gooch said her daughter, who is a sprinter, hurdler, long jumper and high jumper, had missed last year’s event due to injury, so was disappointed to find out the competition wouldn’t go ahead. “She said she had her headspace right to compete, she was ready to have a crack at it,” Mrs Gooch said. “She missed State last year because she had a ruptured her ACL, so she was all ready to have a good, hard crack at it

this year, and when we got down there she just looked and went, ‘What? So, I’m not running tomorrow?’ and I said, ‘Yes darl, you’re not running tomorrow.’” This year was also the first time that both senior male and female relay teams from the Dubbo club had made it to State, which according to Mrs Gooch “isn’t normal”. She also explained that State carnivals give Dubbo athletes an opportunity to compete against their top rivals. “The competition that we get at region obviously isn’t as strong as we get at state, so some of the kids aren’t pushed as hard as they could be to know if they can run faster,” she said. “The State-based carnival is their pinnacle to see if they can actually do some good PBs and test themselves out.” A handful of Dubbo Athletics junior club members, including Millie, qualified for the Athletics Australia Championships which were scheduled for next weekend, but this event has also been cancelled. “I guess it’s now down to school-based athletics,” she said. “But depending on whether coronavirus is letting us do school-based activities come the end of May, it could start to interfere with the school carnivals as well.”
