By YVETTE AUBUSSON-FOLEY SIXTY per cent of Indigenous youth identified as ‘at risk’ of entering the criminal justice system in Dubbo aren’t waking up in Juvenile Justice Centre beds today, and thanks to that statistic alone, likely never will. The significant reduction in charges against Aboriginal youth in Dubbo – realised in just 12 months – is thanks to the innovative Project Walwaay program backed by District Commander Superintendent Peter McKenna and supported by the PCYC, a small army of very committed police, volunteers, organisations like Mission Australia, and the broader community. It was a proud moment then, on Tuesday this week, for Supt McKenna to confirm Project Walwaay’s unprecedented success, which is turning heads at the highest levels, prompting NSW Minister for Police and Emergency Services David Elliott to visit the city this week in acknowledgement of Project Walwaay’s far reaching

time, the police might drive past a group of youth and get the bird, now the kids are waving to them to say hello. At the heart of the program’s success is the PCYC. “The PCYC as a facility is very important. It’s the Police Citizen’s Youth Club, so let’s go back to what that was all about, and that’s the police and the youth working together,” Mr Fuller said. Bringing substantial change in just 12 months is a positive for the whole community, Supt McKenna added. “When I took over as the Commander, I had to look at the place with fresh eyes, and when I saw the massive over-representation of Aboriginal youth in our criminal justice system – in Dubbo – I knew we had to do something about it. “I realised that as police commander, the buck stops with me. So, I had to try something different because what we were doing wasn’t working – and different has now worked.” Project Walwaay commenced on July 29, 2019.

By YVETTE AUBUSSON-FOLEY “AT the end of the day it’s about the safety of the kids – your kids – and other vulnerable people, like grandparents and younger siblings,” Dubbo Regional Council parking officer Cushla Flynn said. “The safety signs and rules are there to protect people. I could never face knowing a child was hurt because someone chose to ignore the safety signs. There’s really no excuse to do the wrong thing. It’s about keeping everyone safe,” she said. Motorists parking illegally in car spaces near schools will be the focus of routine enforcement of school drop-off zones across the local government area.

Manager Environmental Compliance Michael Jarman says DRC staff will be working to ensure drivers are being considerate of signage and NSW road rules. “It’s really important that drivers remain vigilant when in these school zones, as we care about keeping our streets safe, and being considerate of nearby residents and buses. “We ask that drivers don’t double park and consider parking away from the school gates and walk the short distance to meet their children,” said Mr Jarman. School drop-off zones are child safety danger zones, and Council will be ramping up enforcement for drivers who flout the road rules. There are various signs

in school zones which need to be obeyed. These include ‘No parking’ dictating that you must not stop for more than two minutes and remain in, or within, three metres of the vehicle. A breach incurs a $194 fine and two demerit points. Hours of operation may apply to some signs; this means restrictions apply for those times only. Mobility Parking Permit holders are allowed to park for up to five minutes in a No Parking area. No stopping/no stand-

ing signs mean you must not stop your vehicle at any point on the road or kerb, unless there is a medical or other emergency, in the area in the direction of the arrow. This incurs a $349 penalty and two demerit points. Sometimes a no stopping area is indicated by a solid yellow edge line.

ELVIS has not only left the building, he’s been postponed thanks to the COVID-19 pandemic. The Parkes Elvis Festival, which attracts plenty of visitors from Dubbo and Wellington each year, has been postponed from January next year and is now scheduled to run from March 10-14, 2021. Parkes mayor Ken Keith said the date change will give the town seven months until the start of the Festival and he’s hopeful it will be able to proceed. “However, the health and safety of the community will come first in the final decision of the Festival proceeding,” Cr Keith said. Festival Director Cathy Treasure said the organisers chose to announce the date change now to allow stakeholders to make alternate plans for January and to allow the committee time to reschedule artists and all the support services. “We would love the Festival to proceed but are being cautiously optimistic,” she said. “The ticket launch date will be moved to November 16 in line with the new Festival dates. No ticket sales will be made before we are 100 per cent sure we are safe to proceed,” she said. The final decision on the Festival proceeding in March will be made by September 28, after evaluating the most upto-date health advice and community and business sentiment.

Wanted: volunteers for UPA executive By JOHN RYAN WELL know local volunteer Tod O’Dea is asking suitable qualified residents to put up their hands to help out vital local services. He’s executive chairperson on the United Protestant Association (UPA) Western Region Executive – which oversees the well-known residential aged care facility Bracken House in Dubbo and says the organisation is chasing people with diverse skillsets. The Executive is part of a state-wide, non-profit organisation that also operates a Demen-

tia Specific Care Unit and Oxley Retirement Village in Dubbo, a Residential Aged Care facility at Yeoval, and home care services throughout the region with the role of overseeing and supporting the operational arm of UPA Western Region. Pastoral Care Minister Wendy Herd is currently the sole female on the executive. “The Regional Executive vacancies are an important opportunity to correct the Committee’s gender imbalance and for younger people to broaden their experience while playing an important role in the delivery of aged care services to our

region,’’ Mr O’Dea told Dubbo Photo News. “UPA appreciates that balancing out the Executive with more diverse representation will bring different experiences, perspectives and connections to the regional operations. Having more perspectives at the table can bring new approaches to the decision-making process, add depth to the existing skills and ideas, and help us connect with a broader range of stakeholders.’’ Mr O’Dea said the role includes attending monthly meetings via zoom and/or in person, and to oversee and make high-level decisions relating to

the operations of UPA Western Region in terms of clinical governance, Work Health & Safety, budgets, and compliance. The other executive members are Gilgandra’s Roger Hazlett, Scott Sullivan from Cumnock and Yeoval farmers Rex Morris (Vice President), Greg Johnson and David Lowe (who will retire in coming months after many years’ service). If you are interested in joining the UPA Western Region Executive, please contact Todd O’Dea on 0447 865 661, UPA Western Region Manager Elaine Baillie on 0427 844 604 or Rex Morris on 0407 069 022.

Tod O’Dea is calling on locals with board governance and general life skills to think about putting themselves forward as a member of UPA’s Western Region Executive. PHOTO: DUBBO PHOTO NEWS

Old Dubbo Gaol Redevelopment plans unveiled

We’re extending ﬁnancial support A SOD turning ceremony was held this week to mark the beginning of the Old Dubbo Gaol’s stage one redevelopment. New works will be carried out by local business, Omni Building Group, and take approximately 16 weeks to complete. New interactive displays will be incorporated into the facility bringing the Gaol’s history and stories to life. Over 50,000 people visit the Old Dubbo

Gaol annually and it’s provided 3000 students from across four states with educational opportunities every year. The redevelopment prompted an official “pardon” for the animatronic and mannequin prisoners. Pictured is Dubbo mayor Ben Shields and Member for Dubbo Dugald Saunders turning the sod on redevelopments for Old Dubbo Gaol.

The Australian Government is extending JobKeeper until 28 March 2021 and the temporary Coronavirus Supplement for those on income support until 31 December 2020, after which income support will continue.

Farmers support involvement in alternative protein markets NSW Farmers’ Agricultural Science committee chair, David Mailler, has said the burgeoning alternative protein sector should be underpinned by Australian research and development. “Both traditional and alternative protein products need to be responsive to consumer preferences regarding transparency and sustainability, and we need to compare like with like when talking about sustainability claims,” he said, calling for more government support for onshore manufacturing projects. Most plant-based protein products are currently imported. “If we really want to reap the benefits from this emerging industry, we need the policy settings and investment to ensure our grain and horticulture producers can access local processing,” Mr Maillard said.

It’s to be the essence of Club Local, a variety night of entertainment at the Dubbo Regional Theatre convention centre on Saturday, August 22.

Entertainers include the Tin Roof Big Band, Michelle O’Callaghan, Craig Thompson as MC, Cassie and Joel Tongue from Fantasy DanceSport, plus Miss Lee Burlesque as hostess ensuring people adhere to the 1.5 metre rule. “It will be a glittering, cabaret setting, true Gatsby-style celebrating the exceptional local talent that our region has to offer. We do hope you will join us to support local profession-

al artists that have been Dubbo-based for several months due to C-19 and are enthusiastic to entertain you,” DRTCC manager Linda Christof said. “Secure a table of 8 to be your own ‘bubble’ or alternatively box office staff will help with safe seating requirements for smaller bookings. DRTCC has hosted 18 events including business meetings, band rehearsals, film festivals, community events and a dance course since reopening on July 1. August 22 was originally hosting variety entertainers, Club Soda, but with the rapidly changing COVID-19 situation in Victoria and now Sydney, the producers and DRTCC have rescheduled the show to 2021. Club Local is supported by DRTCC’s Top Hat theatre sponsors, David Payne Constructions, O’Brien Electrical, Astley’s Plumbing and Hardware.

WATER WORRIES

Year 7 to 10 science writing competition on for Science Week

Weir wall wars By JOHN RYAN MONTHS of angst and bitterness have been provoked in some sections of the community over the proposed Gin Gin Weir replacement, which many opponents claim will be a dam rather than a replacement regulator. Now WaterNSW has begun to outline its plans to replace the existing, century-old Gin Gin Weir with what they say will be a 21st Century, more environmentally suitable solution to managing the lower parts of the Macquarie River. To explain its plan, two virtual information sessions for community members were held last week, and two are slated for next week. WaterNSW described the existing structure as a rigid concrete wall built in the early 1900s which is severely damaged and does not meet contemporary en-

The existing Gin Gin Weir (left) and an artistâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s impression of the proposed replacement structure.

vironmental requirements associated with allowing fish to migrate and mimicking natural flow variability. It claims the need to replace the old weir with a modern version to meet long term needs in the valley is critical, given the recent drought and predicated climate change risks that threaten the resilience of the environment and other customers in the valley who rely on the river. WaterNSW Assets executive manager Ronan Magaharan said replacing the existing weir with a fit-for-purpose design will benefit all water users. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Some of the information circulating about this proposed replacement weir overlooks the fact that there is already a significant barrier in the river at Gin Gin, dating back to the earliest part of the previous century, which needs replacing,â&#x20AC;? Mr Magaharan said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;In contrast the proposed re-

placement weir is a modern, gated structure, designed to benefit all customers, including the environment,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The gates can be lifted so tributary flows and floods can pass through, or lowered to temporarily store water for delayed delivery and even maintain natural river flows several metres lower than the existing weir if needed. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Additionally, the structure will have the ability to let fish migrate upstream and downstream in that stretch of river for the first time in over a century.â&#x20AC;? He said the operational variability of the gates mean small volumes can be held and then released at Gin Gin to the far reaches of the river system without that water always having to travel the huge distance from the Burrendong Dam, as is currently the only option. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The saving is that less water evaporates over the shorter jour-

ney from Gin Gin, rather than making its way down the river from the other side of Wellington,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;This upgraded infrastructure helps WaterNSW regulate the river for the long-term benefit of all users and must comply with the strict environmental regulations that oversee its operating conditions, and the legislated NSW Government water sharing plans which ensure equity and fairness among competing interests.â&#x20AC;? Because of current COVID-19 social distancing restrictions, the two remaining information sessions will be run as virtual meetings and will be held on: z Wednesday, September 2, from 6pm to 7pm z Thursday, September 3, from 12noon to 1pm To join one of these sessions, join the online community at facebook.com/groups/MRRRS www.waternsw.com.au/mrrrs

Service NSW to issue Ag permits for Victorian workers NSW Farmers has welcomed a new Agriculture Permit system for farmers and agricultural workers from Victoria, with individuals now able to access a Highly Specialised Critical Services (Agriculture) Permit if they are moving and working anywhere within 100km of the New South Wales/ Victorian border. The new permits will be available via the Service NSW website. â&#x20AC;&#x153;With a bumper grain harvest looming in the northern NSW, similar steps must be made urgently to allow the movement of workers, contractors and machinery across the Queensland border,â&#x20AC;? NSW Farmers president James Jackson said.

Blood donations urgently needed

Lifeblood Dubbo Donor Centre manager Deb Garden appeals to residents of Dubbo to donate a little bit of time, blood or plasma and help save lives. PHOTO: DUBBO PHOTO NEWS/EMY LOU

AUSTRALIAN Red Cross Lifeblood needs 10,383 additional people to give blood and plasma over the next two weeks to prevent a potential shortage in blood and plasma stocks. Appointment numbers are down, and all blood and plasma types are needed to make sure stocks remain at a healthy level. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Over the past three months, we have seen the number of people cancelling or not turning up for their appointments increase nationally by around

5000,â&#x20AC;? Lifeblood chief executive Shelly Park said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;And looking ahead, we can see a drop in the appointment numbers over coming weeks â&#x20AC;&#x201C; thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s why weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re asking new and existing donors to step up and fill those 10,000 appointments to ensure there is a sufficient supply of blood and plasma.â&#x20AC;? Blood and plasma donation is essential and allowed. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Donating blood and plasma is classed as essential care giving and we have worked with all state and territory

governments to make sure donors can keep their appointments, even in lockdown.â&#x20AC;? Lifeblood donor centres are safe to visit, with strict social distancing, cleaning and donor eligibility measures in place. Only healthy people are eligible to give blood and we have introduced even more stringent wellness checks prior to appointments, including temperature checking.

ter simulation training systems, some of which has been adopted by the US Army, US Navy, US Air Force and the US Marine Corp. Now based between Lennox Head and the Gold Coast, Mr Ryan said he was â&#x20AC;&#x153;delightedâ&#x20AC;? to take out the prestigious award. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s recognition of many years of hard work, persistence and a

yearning desire to continue innovating and disrupting traditional training markets,â&#x20AC;? he told Dubbo Photo News. Using the power of virtual reality and mix reality technologies, Ryan Aerospaceâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s products aim to train helicopter and jet fighter pilots more safely and at a much lower cost.

Last year, the US Army purchased 32 helicopter simulators from Ryan Aerospace for a training experiment. According to US Army Fort Rucker, Major Chris McFarland, those who used the simulators out-performed peers who trained in real helicopters during aircraft check rides.

BreastScreen checks are COVID safe BreastScreen NSW staff decked out in personal protective gear as they implement COVID safe measures and encourage regular checks.

By LYDIA PEDRANA

WOMEN are being urged not to delay their regular breast screening appointments. During the pandemic, local BreastScreen NSW services have noticed a small decline in attendance, hence reassuring the community they are taking all necessary steps to ensure a COVID safe environment. Meg O’Brien, manager for BreastScreen NSW Greater Western, said a free, 20-minute appointment could be the difference between life and death. “The facts are that one in seven women in NSW will develop breast cancer,” she told Dubbo Photo News. “Some clients are understandably concerned about COVID however we would like to encourage all women, particularly those women over 50 years that they do not delay getting a screen as cancer is not going to wait until COVID is over and it does not discriminate.” Ms O’Brien said a mammogram, or x-ray of the breast, is the most effective way to find breast cancer early, even before any symptoms are noticed. These scans can find very small cancers even down to the size of a grain of rice which is before they can be seen or felt by you or your doctor. “Early detection means more treatment options and a better

chance of survival,” she explained. “When breast cancer is picked up early, most women will recover and can quickly get back to normal life.” Prioritising the health and safety of the community, all Breast-

Screen clients are pre-screened over the phone to exclude anyone with flu-like signs or symptoms attending the service. Upon arrival, all clients, visitors and staff are temperature checked and required to wear a mask.

Additionally, BreastScreen NSW are limiting the number of people in waiting rooms, clinics and mobile screening vans, they are practising social distancing, offering hand sanitiser, and all equipment and high-touch surfaces are

AUSTRALIAN scientists are using alpacas in the battle against COVID-19, with the animals’ unique immune system proving key to potential COVID breakthroughs. Researchers from the Australian Nuclear Science and Technology Organisation (ANSTO) and the Walter and Eliza Hall Institute (WEHI) are researching alpaca antibodies in the hope of creating COVID-fighting therapies. WEHI is immunising alpacas

with the virus that causes COVID-19, the spike protein from SARS-CoV-2, and have isolated and screened nanobodies for their ability to stop the spike protein to infect human cells. ANSTO is using protein crystallography which can see the structure of delicate and complex biological molecules down to the level of individual atoms, to understand how our body’s immune system can fight infection by the SARS-CoV-2 virus.

thoroughly cleaned after each appointment. BreastScreen NSW commences screening on women from 40 years onwards, and send a reminder letter to women aged between 50 to 74 every two years, unless there is significant family history in which case screening occurs each year. Along with regular screening, Ms O’Brien encouraged all women to get to know their bodies. “Please become familiar with your body and get to know what your breasts look and feel like,” she said. “Note any changes however slight they may appear, then don’t delay and go to your GP for a consultation; these changes might be changes to the skin, discharge from the nipple or changes to the size and shape of your nipple or breast. “These changes may not be breast cancer, but you need to see your GP to rule it out, and of course, have your regular mammogram as well.” To book a BreastScreen NSW appointment, which is completely free, including paperwork, call 13 20 50, visit breastscreen.nsw.gov. au or pop into the Dubbo clinic on Myall Street.

ECONOMIC STIMULUS

Gazza ﬁring on eight cylinders By JOHN RYAN

GRAEME Gadsby has run Gazza’s Auto Car Sales and Trailer Hire for years and says it’s been a struggle at times selling cars at the lower-priced end of the market, where many people who are looking for cheaper cars are often those who have the least capacity to buy, register and maintain a vehicle. Now, he says, the commonwealth’s multi-billion-dollar stimulus package, criticised by some, has been a major boost for the small-end of town. “The stimulus has really helped my business, it’s improved out of sight,” Mr Gadsby told Dubbo Photo News, he says it’s put weekly disposable income in the hands of many people who have never had that sort of liquidity before. “It’s extra money that they’ve got to spend and they’re spending it on cars, many of them. “I’ve now got to buy cars out of Dubbo, like from Sydney, Newcastle and Canberra to keep up with demand because I’m selling cars before I can even get them in the yard.” That means Mr Gadsby has had to employ more workers to keep the supply chain of used cars moving. He says a lot of people may wonder how the stimulus is helping keep the wheels of the economy turning, and believes by targeting people on benefits, it ensures that injected money gets put straight back into local areas. “My business has always just

ticked along, I’d probably average one or two car sales a month and I’m now up to probably 10 cars a month,” he said, pointing out there’ll always be a strong demand for cars at the lower end of the market. “There always will be,” he said. “I can help them out, you know, even though the cars are sold without warranty, if people need parts, well I’ve got those parts be-

cause I’ll go and buy two or three cars and make one good car out of them and then I’ve got the parts left over to be able to help them out, and I can do the work because I’m a licensed repairer, so I can use those parts and fix the cars as well.” He says corporatised car wrecking yards owned by big business aren’t interested in helping out the car owners at the lower end of the

scale and says its vital small family wreckers can be kept alive in all regional and rural towns and cities. “It is really important because even if I don’t have the bit I need I can go to the other local wreckers and dismantlers and get what I need but nine times out of 10 I’ll go and buy a whole car just to get probably one or two parts that I need,” Mr Gadsby said.

“When the big guys come in, prices go through the roof, it’s like any industry, it’s important there are locally-owned family style businesses to keep prices affordable – every small town should have at least one car wrecking yard or auto parts or salvage yard, whatever you want to call them, I reckon there needs to be at least one in each town.”

Dubbo sparks easier days By JOHN RYAN

Shawn Townsend said the only regret he has about moving his family from Sydney to Dubbo is that he didn’t do it 10 years earlier. PHOTO: DUBBO PHOTO NEWS/EMY LOU

SHAWN Townsend always has a smile on his face while he’s working and it’s not just because he’s an easy-going tradie, he loves living and working in Dubbo. An electrician with JLE, he specialises in working on the maintenance contracts the company has with organisations and businesses around the city. “I mainly just do a whole heap of maintenance for the company, lots of little jobs around town, I poke around doing all those little jobs,” Mr Townsend told Dubbo Works. He’s surprised that Dubbo has shown itself, so far at least, to be so resistant to the economic downturns so many other parts of the world, and Australia, have experienced during the COVID pandemic. “I think so – the first two weeks in March we were still busy enough but after that it’s been full steam ahead, even weekends now are busy around town with everything, you drive past the junior soccer fields, rugby league and rugby union, they’re all chock-ablock so things have gone back to a bit of normality even though some people

are still suffering,” he said. He pulled up stumps in Sydney to move his family to Dubbo years ago and says it’s a wonder more people aren’t looking to do the same, and believes the current pandemic may well be a motivator for metro dwellers to look at making that tree change to smaller centres where things feel safer. “People with young families should be looking at living out here, Dubbo’s got pretty much everything you need and people looking to set themselves up, it’s a great opportunity,” he said, “You know every second person out here, you just feel more comfortable, the kids feel comfortable, you can buy a house here for the price of a unit in Sydney. “100 per cent, me and my wife made the move 15 years ago, we were living in Sydney and I loved it down there then but as soon as we moved I wished we’d have moved 10 years before, the kids love it and if we say we’ll move back to the coast they all say ‘no’, there are so many opportunities out here with everything. “You want to go and ride a motorbike, you only have to go five minutes out of town, you want to go fishing,

it’s only a few minutes to the river, you want a great meal somewhere, we’ve got all the facilities, it’s unbelievable for a small country town.” Mr Townsend said most workers in Sydney face long commutes morning and evening, and he believes that is no way to live your life. “If you’ve got 10 hours of work in a day down in Sydney, it’ll probably end up being a 13 hour day by the time you’ve driven your car or got on public transport to where you want to go, done your work and then have to get home again, it just makes for a long, long, long drawn-out day, it wouldn’t work for me,” he said. “Peak hour has now extended from Friday afternoon to 3pm on Saturday afternoon with the amount of people on the roads Saturday morning trying to get somewhere, whereas in Dubbo from one end of town to the other it’s only about 10 minutes – and that’s on a bad day. “I reckon most people don’t understand it work-wise, that what job they do in Sydney they can do out here for roughly the same dollars but everything else out here is easier and cheaper.”

What is the future of working from home By LYDIA PEDRANA AS tech giant Atlassian recently announced employees could work remotely beyond COVID-19, it begged the question, will everyone be working from home forever? While recruitment experts donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t believe a purely remote working model is â&#x20AC;&#x153;desirable,â&#x20AC;? they do predict workplaces will be far more flexible in the future. Local recruitment executive, Melinda Barton, from Spinifex Recruitment doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t believe the idea of never returning to the office is realistic. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I think going forward, it is going to be about a lot more about choice and flexibility

and I believe that there will certainly be a greater mix of work from home and office,â&#x20AC;? she told Dubbo Photo News. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The unfortunate thing is that not all jobs are suitable for remote work; indications are that only about 30 per cent of jobs can be done from home and are often jobs that are done by people with higher education or skill levels, so that does create a new divide.â&#x20AC;? Ms Barton also highlighted the pros and cons of working from home. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Although working from home means no commute, flexible work times, feeling safe and wearing your ugg boots all day, there are also challenges,â&#x20AC;? she explained.

â&#x20AC;&#x153;If you have kids, it can be difficult to juggle, you might not have the space for a home office, there is a loss of creativity and collaboration and the removal of the 9 to 5 worktime constraints, which is a huge negative for people who struggle to clock off.â&#x20AC;? Dubbo grain trader Angus Groves admits he is struggling to be productive from his dining room table and is actively looking for a space to co-work. â&#x20AC;&#x153;At first, the idea of working from home sounded pretty appealing, but the novelty was quick to wear off and now, I find Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m really missing that team environment where you can collaborate and brainstorm.â&#x20AC;?

WHAT KIDS SAY

The Regent is king By JOHN RYAN THE future for one of the region’s most important bird species has received a boost with the Regent Honeyeater conservation breeding program welcoming an additional two pairs of adult birds from Taronga Zoo in June 2020. Dubbo’s zoo is now home to 12 Regent Honeyeaters in a behind-the-scenes breeding facility. Regent Honeyeater keeper Kara Stevens said staff have high hopes as the breeding season gets underway, with all the birds settling into their new home.

“We have already seen the two new pairs initiating nesting which is really positive to see,” she said. “All of the birds are now paired off and we are hopeful that at least four pairs will produce young in this our first breeding season for this species.” Regent Honeyeater breeding season is from July through to January and the species can have up to three clutches throughout the breeding season, with generally two successful chicks per clutch being the norm. “We already have a couple of birds

incubating eggs on nests, so we are patiently waiting to see the outcome from these,” she said. “So far we have seen some form of breeding behaviour from all six pairs, which is a really positive sign so early on in the breeding season.” Regent Honeyeaters make cup shaped nests in the fork of trees, generally using dried grasses, casuarina needles and spider web to hold the nest together, with zookeepers daily collecting spider web for the

birds. Male Regent Honeyeaters will generally choose the nesting site, while females are the ones who incubate the eggs, and males will help to feed the chicks once they hatch. Mum and dad birds visit the nestlings up to 40 times an hour to feed them until they are juveniles, at which point they will separate from their parents and crèche together. Taronga Western Plains Zoo’s Regent Honeyeater conservation breeding program is part of the NSW Government Saving Our Species program, and the birds are also one of Taronga’s Legacy Species, which means there’s a commitment for the next decade to conserve them (one of 10 species) and focusing the organisation’s efforts on ensuring their survival.

Science called on to solve Australia’s most urgent issues AUSTRALIA’S national science agency, the CSIRO, is marking the anniversary of its first mission 100 years ago to save agriculture by eliminating Prickly Pear. It’s committing $100 million annually to build long term resilience for Australia. New missions include increasing the country’s resilience and preparedness against pandemics, mitigate the impact of dis-

asters: drought, bushfires and floods, create a hydrogen industry to generate a new clean energy export industry, accelerate the transition to agile manufacturing for higher revenue and sovereign supply, create a national climate capability to navigate climate change uncertainty, use technology to navigate Australia’s transition to net zero emissions, safeguard the health

of waterways by monitoring the quality of water resources from space. “Great science starts with a vision, but vision alone is insufficient. The vision has to be backed by real commitment. That’s what the CSIRO missions are all about, and I hope their rallying call is heard far and wide,” Australia’s chief scientist Dr Alan Finkel said.

Transforming your home with recycled materials Not only is Nathan Budworth the much-loved handyman at Kintyre Living, he is a highly talented artist who uses recycled materials to create unique and visually eye-catching sculptures plus, believe it or not, replica swords. Nathan started crafting steel and other metals in 2014 and since then has developed everything from large ornaments for gardens to useful items for business, including hand crafted pizza cutters. His work is an integral part of the landscape and interiors at Kintyre Living in Dubbo which gives a special rustic appeal to the environment. “I have always had an interest in metal work,” Nathan said. “I get great satisfaction from finding old steel on farms and people’s garages that provide inspiration for my creations. It is amazing to see these taking pride of place in locations like Kintyre, where residents, their families and visitors can appreciate the craft that is a disappearing art in Australia.” It’s true, one person’s trash is another’s treasure, which can be

seen with the incredible sculptures scattered around the gardens and community spaces in the Village Clubhouse and Kintyre Lodge Aged Care Facility. The creations are one of a kind and bring spaces to life with the visual interest they create and the appreciation of the hours of craftsmanship that goes into each piece. “One of the most favourite things I have ever been asked to create is a full outdoor setting which included, two glass topped tables, two Eskies and a Webber barbecue I built for a bloke, all out of old beer kegs he had. “It took me weeks to find the right materials and hours to hand make it. I hope it takes pride of place in their home,” he said. “My favourite piece within the village has to be the fountain, Shaz and I built.” Shaz, is Nathan’s partner Sharon Roff. Nathan is one of the many talented artists in the Dubbo region who can not only fix a leaking tap but can turn rusted iron into something that takes pride of place in people’s collections.

Flights continue for essential travellers only

Link Airways, formerly Fly Corporate, is offering ﬂights between Brisbane and Melbourne in line with all government tiers’ COVID protocols, and for essential travel only. PHOTO: CONTRIBUTED.

By YVETTE AUBUSSON-FOLEY DESPITE border closures between Queensland and Victoria for NSW, flights from Dubbo to Brisbane and Melbourne are operating, but travel must be essential. Link Airways, which is the new brand for the regional airline formerly known as Fly Corporate, is operating flights on Monday, Tuesday, Thursday and Friday. The Federal Government’s Regional Airline Network Support (RANS) program allows provision of a minimum weekly schedule to all communities it serviced prior to

the COVID-19 pandemic. “We are pleased that regional Australia can retain these vital flights. This program provides critical connectivity for essential travellers/freight and we look forward to further increasing the frequency of flights in due course,” Link Airways CEO Andrew Major said. “Passengers wishing to travel need to be considered ‘essential’ and require a valid exemption. If you are specifically wanting to enter NSW from Victoria you must request, and receive approval, for a NSW point of entry other than at Sydney Airport.” Flights are also governed

by the extent of the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic and associated State border restrictions. The airline has established extensive protocols to help ensure the safety of customers, the communities being serviced and associated staff, with all passengers being subject to temperature testing at check-in and compulsory wearing of face masks, which are being supplied free of charge. Flights for Brisbane depart Dubbo on Tuesday and Friday, and to Melbourne on Monday and Thursday. On the airline’s recent name change Mr Major said

Staying connected in your senior years Retirement is a time of great change, and while most people look forward to these years as a time to start living life to the full, many seniors find it can be increasingly isolating. Family members are busy with their own lives, we lose the daily interaction with work colleagues, social engagement opportunities diminish, and we can start losing our loved ones. But at Oak Tree, the community nature of our retirement villages can help you foster that crucial connection and greatly enhance your quality of life, whether you’re single or partnered into your later years. The importance of companionship Social connection is known to have a wide variety of physical and mental benefits. While interactions help keep our bodies active, equally important is the role it plays in keeping our brains active. Engaging with our peers can help reduce the risk of heart disease, dementia and Alzheimer’s to name a few. At a time in your life where there are fewer things you have to do, social engagements provide a sense of purpose, and help stave off feelings of isolation, emptiness and depression. Another benefit of social connection is the sense of security it provides, particularly in your senior years, knowing that help is at hand should anything happen to you. “David and I moved into our villa as Covid-19 began. We didn’t feel isolated at all. We were told of all restrictions in our weekly news, and kept up to date at all times. We are very happy and feel safe. The bonus of a smaller village helped a lot with good management support.”

Oak Tree keeps you connected At Oak Tree, we don’t just build villages, we build communities. While making new friends might seem daunting, here you’ll be surrounded by like-minded people who are all at the same stage of life. You’ll have facilities and activities that make the process of creating a new social circle easier. Be as social as you like and enrich your retirement doing more of the things you love. All the while, you’ll have an active village manager to foster that community atmosphere and always be on-hand for help and maintenance around your home. “Some of the positives of living in an Oak Tree Retirement Village while in lockdown was that we could make sure everyone was okay. We could still borrow from the library in a safe way (Joanne our Village Manager could drop off books at our front door). Another positive was that we were kept updated on everything via the village newsletter. I found that very helpful.” With a network of new and old friends, Oak Tree will help you stay active and connected in your senior years, and give you peace of mind knowing that a caring neighbour or helping hand is never far away.

EMERGENCY REPORT

The Dubbo Photo News column dedicated to the hard work of our emergency services personnel. on August 13, detectives attended a home on Garnet Street, Dubbo and spoke with two men, aged 22 and 30, before issuing them with court attendance notices for drive recklessly/furiously or speed/ manner dangerous and organise/ promote race between vehicles. They were also issued traffic infringement notices for exceed speed >45km/h, and their licences were suspended. The men will appear before Dubbo Local Court on Wednesday, September 30.

COVID PIN NEWS OPINION AND ANALYSIS by JOHN RYAN

Phone booth vandals I HATE the fact we need CCTV cameras everywhere, but if they pinpoint the perpetrators of mindless vandalism – like the idiot or plural idiots who smashed a Macquarie Street phone booth’s glass to smithereens – then bring Big Brother on. See the photo above. The people who need phone booths are generally some of society’s most vulnerable so there’s a double whammy there. Idiots.

Operation Stock Check THE rise of the Rural Crime Prevention Team has to be the success story state-wide when it comes to the NSW cops. Two-and-a-half years ago most rural crime such as stock theft, and stealing fuel wasn’t even being reported, much less solved. Because farmers thought nothing like that ever gets solved, they didn’t bother reporting the crimes – a vicious circle of frustration and despair on both sides. Since the formation of dedicated rural police, the number of headline arrests for rural stealing, trespassing and illegal hunting has soared – and it’s only because the state government and police commissioner have put money where their mouths are and properly resourced these rural cops. The more runs they get on the board, the more farmers and local country communities engage with police and provide timely information, which becomes intel the police can use. Police minister David Elliot visited Dubbo earlier this week to thank and acknowledge the hard,

foundational work done by all concerned. Dubbo-based State Rural Crime coordinator, Detective Inspector Cameron Whiteside, said it was thanks to the allocation of resources to have dedicated rural police across the state that had made a massive impact. “The support from NSW Police and the government for resources into rural crime is unprecedented,” Det Insp Whiteside told Dubbo Photo News. “Livestock theft is the most significant form of rural crime in NSW and Operation Stock Check, which launched two weeks ago, is a high-visibility proactive operation that is designed to interrupt the theft of stock, and prevent it

in the first place. “It’s also about increasing our capability by educating our uniformed police and our 17,000-strong police force that stock theft will not be tolerated.” Det Insp Whiteside said it was important to give all police the confidence to pull over any vehicle transporting or suspected of transporting livestock, at any time of day or night. He said while some large numbers of stolen stock have been transported by large trucks, there were also plenty of smaller vehicles carrying thieved goats, cattle and sheep around NSW. “If you see a horse float on a country road at 2 o’clock in the morning, get the rego number and

call your local police. If we hear of suspicious activity in a timely manner we can often solve crimes there and then,” he said. “This operation is aimed squarely at the criminals who prey upon the rural community. It’s not aimed at farmers and livestock carriers who are doing the right thing, but we urge carriers and farmers to make sure that their paperwork is in order and their animals are fit to load so if they do get pulled over by the police it will be a simple check of your documentation.” Hats off to the boys and girls in blue for the work they’re doing to arrest these leeches of crooks who’ve been flogging stuff from farms and villages for decades and getting away with it.

POLICE have charged two men and a 20-year-old woman remains in a critical condition following a serious motorcycle crash near Yeoval. About 2pm on August 11, emergency services responded to reports of a serious motorcycle crash on the Renshaw McGuire Way, approximately 10km from the town. Police were told two men and a woman, each riding motorcycles, were travelling from Parkes to Dubbo when the woman lost control on a bend and crashed into Armco railing. She was treated by paramedics before being airlifted to Liverpool Hospital. Police began investigations and,

ON August 14, a 57-year-old man attended Bourke Hospital with possible COVID-19 symptoms and was tested for the virus before being directed to self-isolate at home. About 3.30pm on August 18, the man was located at a friend’s house and further police inquiries revealed the man had attended a local shop the same morning. He was issued with a $1000 penalty infringement notice (PIN) for failing to comply with noticed direction.

New cops FOUR newly minted probationary constables have been stationed in Dubbo after their COVID-private graduation ceremony at Goulburn Police Academy last week. Aside from the four to be stationed in Dubbo, other officers will be based at Warren, Gilgandra and Coonamble. Minister for Police and Emergency Services David Elliott was on hand in Dubbo to welcome the new police on their first day on the beat. He congratulated the new officers on their dedication and hard work as they embarked on their chosen career in policing. “Our recruits from Class 342 come at an important time for the state of NSW. I wish them well as they embark on their chosen career,” Mr Elliott said. District Commander, Superintendent Peter McKenna, welcomed the new recruits. “It’s really exciting to have seven new officers on the front line,” Supt McKenna said. “They will be embarking upon a very challenging but exciting journey and I look forward to watching them establish themselves as dedicated police officers.” z Send your news tips to john.ryan@panscott.com.au or 0429 452 245 txt is best

The end of our Freedom By JOHN RYAN

DUBBO Photo News’ Facebook page was inundated with comments when we broke the news last Friday that Dubbo’s Freedom outlet was closing after 27 years in the city. Many people were sad to see the outlet shut its doors and many more wished owner Chris Nugent the best in her retirement. She said the years of drought massively impacted retail sales and just when things were coming good, the Coronavirus pandemic struck a bitter blow to any future certainty for the business. “It’s sad, I’ve been in tears, specially telling all

my staff, who are great,” Chris told Dubbo Photo News, saying it’s difficult to make any sort of business decisions when it’s impossible to know what the future’s going to hold. “It’s never been like this before – it’s all just changed this year and you just think, is this going to be sustainable, is it not, will we lock-down again, the uncertainty takes it out of you.” The closing down sale starts this weekend with everything in-store a minimum of 25 per cent off and some things will be up to 60 per cent off. Clients currently waiting on furniture won’t be affected by the planned closure.

Become a StrokeSafe speaker and help save a life THE number of people living with the effects of stroke in the federal electorate of Parkes is projected as 6239 by 2050, almost double compared to 2014 figures (3627). In 2017 the 252 strokes recorded in the electorate was higher than both the state and national averages. According to the Stroke Foundation, regional Australians are also 19 per cent more likely to have a stroke than their city counterparts. Stroke Foundation is seeking StrokeSafe speakers in Dubbo to help raise awareness of the F.A.S.T. (Face. Arms. Speech. Time.) signs of stroke. StrokeSafe speakers present talks to workplaces and community groups, sharing potentially life-saving information about how to recognise and prevent stroke. National Stroke Week falls between August 31 to September 6.

Freedom owner Chris Nugent said the stress of being in retail with the ongoing drought was bad enough, but that the uncertainty around a COVID-19 future had brought thoughts of retirement to the fore.

‘Soul Socks’ for men’s mental health By YVETTE AUBUSSON-FOLEY

Dr Katie Bourke lost her brother and is now a Movember Ambassador, raising funds for improving men’s mental health outcomes using her own initiative called Soul Socks. PHOTO: CONTRIBUTED

THEY say Movember is about changing the face of men’s health and though it’s only August, it’s never too early to start planning your intent to put your best face forward and help tackle the ongoing need to improve men’s mental health. Movember is a leading global men’s health charity raising funds all year round for research and support programs to enable men to live happier, healthier and longer lives, by supporting projects focussed on prostate cancer, testicular cancer and suicide prevention. One initiative raising funds was started by Movember Ambassador and psychiatrist Dr Katie Bourke who created Soul Socks in tribute to her brother Andy. One hundred per cent of

the money raised from Soul Sock sales is donated to Movember. Along with many of her professional peers, Dr Bourke is increasingly concerned about the impact the coronavirus pandemic is having on people’s mental health. “The pandemic is collectively changing our world view on what is important to us. Small things we previously took for granted, like giving a loved one a hug, are now on hold. But staying socially connected despite being physically apart is more important than ever,” Katie said. Movember figures reveal over half of Australian men say no one has asked them if they are okay during the pandemic and almost a third surveyed had not checked in with friends or family to find out how they were doing during the crisis.

“Soul Socks’ is about having fun, supporting a good cause and connecting with those who may be having a tough time. The socks can be an icebreaker to honest conversations. And gifting socks is a great way to let someone know you are thinking about them,” Dr Bourke explained. “There is another advantage of gifting socks, too. Research suggests giving to others, a term known as prosocial spending, may even improve one’s own well-being!” Movember’s Global Director for Mental Health and Suicide Prevention Brendan Maher said funds raised will be directly channelled into programs aimed at improving men’s mental health outcomes.

The multi-record holder recently completed an impressive title for most football touches with the feet on a treadmill in one minute with a total of 170. The movement is quite difficult in the freestyle world, as it requires the athlete to keep track of the ball while also moving swiftly on the treadmill. Laura ﬁrst got her start in football at the age of 10 and quickly improved her skills to become record worthy.

Chasing rare Wellington plant By JOHN RYAN ZIERIA obcordate is described as being a beautiful plant but it exists in only two locations; around Wellington is one of them. Locals are being urged to be ready to report any sightings of this threatened species, with Senior Threatened Species Officer at the Department of Planning, Industry and the Environment (DPIE) Darren Shelly saying itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s been hit hard by the drought, with less than 200 plants estimated to still be in the wild. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We think there might be more un-discovered

populations of this Zieria on private properties between Wellington and Bathurst and we are asking for the local communityâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s help in reporting sightings of this rare plant,â&#x20AC;? Mr Shelley said. The Zieria obcordata is a small shrub, typically 10 to 40cm high and can be identified by its dark green leaves composed of three wedge-shaped leaflets and its flowers, complete with four very small pale pink petals that fade rapidly to white. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The plant usually flowers between August and October and grows on rocky hillsides or crevic-

es between granite boulders, often in lines running downslope,â&#x20AC;? Mr Shelly said. Local residents have already proven instrumental in ensuring the existing populations survived the recent drought and the plantâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s other threats which include grazing by deer, goats and wallabies. Some members of the community have been volunteering for several years with the NSW Governmentâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Saving our Species program to save the Zieria obcordata.

Wellington’s grand masterplan By NATALIE LEWIS TWO years after deciding to create a masterplan for Wellington’s Town Centre, Dubbo Regional Council (DRC) has plans to put it on public display. Council has prepared the draft Wellington Town Centre Plan with the key aims of ‘addressing the growing number of vacancies and low levels of activation within the town centre,’ referring to the many empty shopfronts spread along the main street. The draft plan splits the CBD into three distinct precincts: a local village, a tourism village and an enterprise village and has also divided community consultation into stages which include specialist input from retail economics, traffic engineering, landscape architecture and heritage. But for long-term Wellington resident and former business owner Marie Hoffman, the plan lacks real substance. “I would like to see Wellington’s Town Centre plan,” Mrs Hoffman told Dubbo Photo News. “All I can see is Dubbo, a few mentions of outer towns, maps etc.” In her report to Council, Senior Growth Planner Carmel O’Connor describes the plan as a key action of Council’s Community Strategic Plan 2040. Its aim is to address the town’s demise and to provide a framework which encourages investment and supports revitalisation. “Over recent years, the Wellington Town Centre has experienced a significant decline in retail activity, which is currently reflected in a 27 per cent vacancy rate of shop fronts at ground floor level,” the report states. “This vacancy rate in turn contributes to a lack of activity in the centre and has flow-on effects for the entire centre. “A Plan is required to identify the current opportunities in the Wellington Town Centre, the issues generating vacancies and preventing activation and the actions that could be adopted to counteract the situation.” However, after viewing the plan, Mrs Hoffman was not convinced of its viability.

“We have been through this so many times,” she said. “It all sounds great at the time, then there either is not enough money to complete it, or a change of Council, State or Federal Government and everything is put on hold and forgotten.” The draft plan was prepared using specialist input and community consultation including face to face interviews (prior to COVID-19 restrictions), selected group discussions, online feedback and written invitations to retailers. It outlines issues such as shop vacancies, site contamination and accessibility and suggests improvements such as street tree entry, parking and pedestrian zones along with a focus on preserving heritage, promoting tourism and encouraging future festivals and events. According to the plan, Council is to investigate: z Traffic calming measures and intersection treatments z Planning controls and land uses z Public domain and street beautification works z Tourism activities and opportunities

z Town Entrance Statements including signage z The relationship with Cameron Park, Pioneer Park and the Town Centre z Heritage and the importance of heritage conservation “Many good things have happened in Wellington, but without consultation or thought to the present and future population of the town,” Mrs Hoffman said. “Anyway, ‘they’ will do what ‘they’ think is right.” At its July Ordinary meeting, Council recommended to place the Wellington Town Centre Plan on public display in the Dubbo and Wellington Visitor Information Centres, Civic Administration Buildings and Macquarie Regional Library for a period of two months. Part of that reckoning was also to identify and invite interested community stakeholder groups to make a submission in respect of the draft plan. What do you think of the Wellington Town Centre Plan?

Visitors to be Well informed By YVETTE AUBUSSON-FOLEY WELLINGTONâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;S newly relocated Visitor Information Centre has been officially opened and Dubbo Regional Council (DRC) mayor Ben Shields says the project was not just important for the town, but also exciting. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The new centre provides an improved visitor experience with enhanced retail space, devoted to promoting the tourism attractions in Wellington and the wider Dubbo Region," Cr Shields said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Wellington has so much to offer our tourists, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s important to create a visitor information centre that is prominent and easy to access. We hope this centre will encourage those who are stopping in the region to stay an extra night or two which will help boost the local economy.â&#x20AC;?

The new centre is located adjacent to Cameron Park and the Wellington Aquatic Leisure Centre and showcases the well-known tourism attractions such as Wellington Caves, Lake Burrendong, Mount Arthur Ranges and lesser known attractions such as Fern Gully at the Burrendong Arboretum. Thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s also plenty of information about Wellingtonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s rich heritage. The visitor information centre also boasts a large range of local artisan food produce from across the region and DRC is encouraging locals and visitors alike to head in and shop the homegrown produce. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The support of the local community will make all the difference to our local producers, we encourage the community to head in and buy the great variety of local products,â&#x20AC;? Cr Shields said.

From centre stage to behind the scenes By LYDIA PEDRANA RESPECTED Dubbo dancer and performer, Joseph Simons, has launched his own production company alongside his husband, Adam Gardnir. Since their quaint garden wedding at Mr Simons’ family home in Dubbo last year, the pair have been planning to join creative forces, and with COVID-19 wiping out all scheduled work, now was the right time. Admitting the pair took a moment to grieve their lost work and the wider impact the pandemic has had on the arts; Mr Simons quickly saw the silver lining. “Altitude Theatre has come out of a desire to run a theatre company aware of the times we are living in,” he told Dubbo Photo

News. “Yes, our industry has had a drastic shock to the system this year, but on the other side it’s also a chance to be fresh, innovative and nimble with our theatre-making.” Based in Brisbane, Altitude Theatre’s first production will be Mel Brooks’ famous musical, The Producers, scheduled to open late January. Mr Simons is slated to direct and choreograph the show, while Mr Gardnir will be the producer. They chose The Producers as their debut show so they can offer audiences a brief escape from reality. The award-winning musical was playing on Broadway in 2001 when 9/11 occurred in New York and was one of the first produc-

tions to re-open on September 13 with audiences flocking to the theatre for some light, comic relief. “The Producers is the perfect ‘recovery musical’,” Mr Simons said. “As USA was grieving 9/11 in 2001, it was The Producers that got the public laughing again. “I can’t think of a better musical to cheer us all up.” Mr Simons cut his artistic teeth at the country’s oldest and longest running dance school, Dubbo Ballet Studio, before attending the esteemed Western Australia Academy of Performing Arts (WAAPA) upon graduation. He went on to tour extensively throughout Asia, United States of America and United Kingdom with almost every major ballet,

physical theatre and contemporary dance company in Australia. Prior to the pandemic, Mr Simons worked as a director, choreographer and educator at Queensland University of Technology (QUT), Queensland Conservatorium, Griffith University and Queensland College of Dance. Mr Gardnir, who has designed sets and costumes for major Australian musicals, opera and ballet, most recently worked as a producer for Brisbane Powerhouse and Queensland Performing Arts Centre. Should COVID-19 not have thrown a curveball, right now Mr Simons would be choreographing a production of Mama Mia for the Star Casino on the Gold Coast which has now been delayed by 12 months.

Luckily, his sessional university lecturing has been able to continue, albeit virtually. Together, Mr Simons and Mr Gardnir hope to produce quality, locally made theatre for Aussie audiences while supporting homegrown talent. “It’s no secret that 2020 has been harsh and difficult times for the Arts industry, but we are keen at Altitude Theatre to create opportunities for artists to get back on stage and for audiences to come back to the theatre and laugh,” Mr Simons said. As well as major music theatre productions, Altitude Theatre plans to host a series of industry forums and masterclasses for performers and arts workers. Let’s hope Mr Simons brings a few shows back home!

NEWS EXTRA TRIBUTE FORMER Dubbo boy Graham Green is a Canberra-based aviation consultant focussing on training processes, safety systems and accident investigation methodologies. He regularly presents at conferences and conducts training programs related to training and safety management. His dad Ralph, a local bush pilot, recently died. Graham shared his story of growing up under his dadâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s wings and how those formative childhood and teenage years inspired him to take his own, independent leap, into the wild blue yonder. â&#x20AC;˘â&#x20AC;˘â&#x20AC;˘ HOW do you remember a bush pilot? Simple really, you hire an old plane and spread the ashes over the countryside he adored in a manner that he wouldâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve wanted. Ralph Green was a pilot from another era. He learnt to fly in a Tiger Moth at a time when flying was cheap and the actual process of learning to fly was less demanding and was not under the bureaucratic restrictions that are in place today. He was a long-term member of the original Dubbo Aero Club and also had memberships in similar clubs across the surrounding region. This was before the present club and during a time when club houses were either tin shacks or a fibro sheds in some remote corner of a landing field. No air-conditioned club buildings in those days â&#x20AC;&#x201C; just a simple shed adorned with creased aeronautical maps, faded pictures of aircraft and filled with most-

Remembering a pilot from a bygone era ly males chatting about all things flying while emptying the dented esky from the corner. This was the social life of a bush pilot. Ralphâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s weekends were not spent in front of the TV â&#x20AC;&#x201C; nor at the pub, but instead, in the air, and if that was not practical due to weather or other reasons, then he would be socialising at the aero club. I have fond memories being a young child and growing up in this environment. The local airport was my playground and the frequent trips in the air were all met with open eyes and sheer excitement. Flight plans were logged via paper at the local Air Traffic Control (ATC) tower and each flight meant we had to personally go up the tower and lodge the paperwork. No iPads or electronic mapping devices in those days â&#x20AC;&#x201C; instead, dad had to carry huge charts and maps around with him in a dedicated flight bag. Each map was covered in protective contact and had remnants of many pencil lines depicting previous flights. This was all part of the fun being the young child of an aviator. I remember one flight when Dad had to ferry a plane from Bankstown back to Dubbo. He tasked me with following the flight on a huge map and reporting to him the

co-ordinates every time we passed over a landmark. This was how I spent my weekends â&#x20AC;&#x201C; I grew up sitting in the co-pilot seat, reading maps and knowing the phonetic alphabet while my friends were playing football. Other flights consisted of trips to outback NSW. Buzzing the dirt field before landing in order to get that vital visual of any potential hazards, and of course clearing the dirt strip of any possible wildlife. These so-called landing fields were in the middle of nowhere and no cars or hangars or even telephones were in place. To communicate our presence, we were required to do a low-level pass over someoneâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s house before landing at the isolated strip. This low-level pass was how it was done â&#x20AC;&#x201C; to tell the occupants to come and pick us up at the so-called landing strip. Simple days and easy days. No fancy radar, no electronic devices, no glass (touch-screen) cockpits and an old plane that could land anywhere. Dad continued to fly and kept his license active well into his 80s. The medicals always proved to be problematic but he passed them â&#x20AC;&#x201C; however he did enter each medical with utterances that the process is all wrong and not needed. The same words were used when

Ralph Green in his bush â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;officeâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; ďŹ&#x201A;ying over the western country he loved so much. PHOTO: CONTRIBUTED.

referring to constant ASIC renewals, ever changing regulations, and of course, the complex bureaucratic process. He knew he was fit enough to fly and no-one was going to tell him what to do. To him old pilots gave up when they felt like it â&#x20AC;&#x201C; not when some government process told them they couldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t fly anymore. His final days were spent in the backyard looking up at the sky and wondering where each plane was headed to. The family home was under many international flight paths and the advent of FlightRadar24 was heaven sent to him. He could hear the planes landing and taking off at the local airport and he was quick to say what type of aircraft was making the noise. My last conversation with him, only a matter of hours before he died, was related to an aircraft accident I was currently researching. Knowing that his offspring had followed him into the industry made him feel very proud. The generosity and camaraderie of the Dubbo based flying school Thomas Aviation assisted the fam-

ily in taking Dad for his final flight (coincidentally, Thomas Aviation are now using the very same hangar that Noel Howe was using in the 1970s for Dubbo Flying School â&#x20AC;&#x201C; a place where Dad would hang out and also hire many aircraft from). It was the perfect winterâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s flying day â&#x20AC;&#x201C; no wind, sunny and clear skies all around. We did request the use of a Tiger Moth to carry Dadâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s ashes to the heavenly skies but government bureaucracy stood in the way â&#x20AC;&#x201C; something Dad wouldâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve sworn about. However, with a quick call around, we were able to locate a simple Cessna 172 to take Dad, as a passenger, to his final destination. Our flight over Central NSW bought back many memories of earlier and easier times and it felt that this flight just had to happen â&#x20AC;&#x201C; that is, scattering his ashes in a good, reliable and simple aircraft over an area that he so often flew. As we banked over a favourite rural location, I carefully opened the window, put the funnel outside, pulled the plug out and released the ashes. So long Dad.

THE TOONS’ VIEWS

Weir campaign being funded locally The Editor, I’m writing to inform the readers of your paper that, contrary to recent opinion expressed in your Feedback and Letters section [Dubbo Photo News, August 13, 2020] the advertising campaign by Healthy Rivers Dubbo against the proposed Gin Gin re-regulating weir is being run by a number of dedicated local people who have contributed much of their own time and money, and not by Sydneysiders attempting to tell those of us in the region how to live our lives. The Nature Conservation Council authorised the ad for us, but they did not initiate or fund it. We are local people passionate about maintaining the natural flows in the river to ensure water continues to be available for native fish, wildlife and downstream communities – and not to be restricted by a 14 metre high structure with 10 metre high gates for the financial benefit of a few. If anyone in the community has questions about the campaign that they would like clarity about, we are easy to contact online. Peter Duggan, Healthy Rivers Dubbo

Face mask madness overtakes toilet paper madness The Editor, The suggestion to make masks and sell them for Dubbo Can Assist seemed innocent enough. Dusty sewing machines were brought out of cupboards, by rusty workers. Cutters, snippers, ironers and sewers all worked tirelessly in a couple of hastily set up work rooms. The Outback Dragon boaters came on board, and the COVID-19 decommissioned Zoo volunteers hopped in to help. First the elastic ran out, then the black fabric. Who would have en-

visaged that! After three weeks of sewing, extensive orders and much chat and laughter, Can Assist volunteers have passed the baton to others to continue to mask our community and keep us all safe. Many thanks to all who provided assistance, materials and by purchasing the masks. For us slightly senior volunteers, who have practiced all health safety measures and lockdowns meticulously, this exercise has allowed us to enjoy the camaraderie with our peers. At a time when we were unable to raise funds, in the normal ways, to help our local cancer patients, we have boosted our coffers. Many, many thanks. Prue Thompson, Dubbo

Support reminder for Vietnam Veterans’ Day The Editor, Each year on August 18 – Vietnam Veterans’ Day and the anniversary of the Battle of Long Tan – Australians pause to reflect on the service and sacrifice of those who served during the Vietnam War. This week, as we commemorate the service and sacrifice of those who served and died in Vietnam, it is important to acknowledge that many Vietnam veterans were deeply affected by their service. Vietnam veterans were instrumental in establishing the Vietnam Veterans’ Counselling Service, now known as Open Arms. This service has been providing mental health and support services for Australian veterans and their families every year since 1982 and is their enduring legacy. All Vietnam veterans can be proud that Open Arms supported more than 30,000 veterans and their family members last year and that it has made a life-changing difference to countless veter-

ans and their families, and I know it will continue to do so into the future. Lest we forget. Darren Chester, Minister for Veterans’ Affairs, Minister for Defence Personnel

Freedom to speak, readers react WHEN Dubbo Photo News broke the news online last Friday that the Freedom Dubbo store was closing down, our readers reacted by paying tribute to this long-serving locally-owned business. After almost 30 years in business in the city, owner Chris Nugent said the years of drought had massively impacted retail sales, and just when things were coming good, the Coronavirus pandemic struck a bitter blow to any future certainty for the business. See our story on page 20. Here’s some of your comments. Crystal: So sorry to hear that Chris. So many businesses are needlessly, devastatingly affected by this. Sue Hood: All the best Chris. You

are doing the right thing for you. Take care and all the best for the future. Thank you for being such a good business and looking after the people of Dubbo. Cathy: Sad to hear another Dubbo retail store closing. Thank you for your service to Dubbo and surrounding areas. Manda: So sorry to hear your news Chris. We wish you and your staff the very best. Julie: Tough decision Chris... I loved going into your beautiful store and experiencing the designer rooms. All the best for your retirement. You should be proud of a job VERY well done. Natalie: Thank you Freedom for your many years of service and quality items. You will be missed, however best wishes Chris for what is ahead of you. Jillian Kilby: Chris, I’m so sorry. You’ve been an absolute hero securing stock for The Dubbo Clock Tower and The Exchange with all the complication of going back to a big corporate for stock. Chris runs a business, not an outlet of Freedom. There’s a big difference

and I believe people forget Chris is one of us small business owners that is really impacted by the challenges of drought and COVID. Congrats on making a big decision and the right decision. Maureen: After so many fabulous years. I remember when you first opened Chris. Always such fabulous service and have loved shopping at Freedom over the years. You will be greatly missed. Thank you. Sue: You have had a fantastic business Chris...you should be very proud! Jenny: We will miss you, so much of your lovely furniture fills our home, just won’t be the same, all the best for the future. ••• z HAVE YOUR SAY: feedback@ dubbophotonews.com.au or 89 Wingewarra St, Dubbo 2830.

which has challenged governments, of both complexions, more than any other. It is a question that rests most squarely in the face of this generation of Australians. History, I believe, has chosen this generation at this time to motivate all its intellectual and emotional weight in the answering of this question. It is the question of reconciliation, the final and most profound step which must be taken in the formation of our nation. Much has been said and written about the Black Lives Matter protests that erupted across the United States, a movement which found its way to our shores as though Australia stood as the 51st US state. It is this fact, along with the

seemingly hollow virtue of it all, that most alienates me – as a young indigenous Australian – from such a movement. The long and arduous story of struggle faced by Indigenous Australians like my grandmother is real. However, it is totally unique and unlike the struggles of any other Indigenous peoples, and so anything less than tailored and equally unique responses and conversation is an insult to that struggle. It is equally true that the struggle of African Americans is unique to their nation and its history, so perhaps Black Lives Matter is the tailored and unique response required in the American context. Though I do not believe that to be true in this our Australian con-

text. In fact I think there is something deeply two dimensional implied by the importation of such a moment. That because Black Lives Matter is seeking equality for people of colour, that it can be applied as an effective tool in any context in

` We must all understand that our shared history on this land has its dark chapters, and that although no one alive today participated in the atrocities of the past, we must each carry the burden of that history... a

which people of colour exist. No Australian, Indigenous or not, of reasonable mind would disagree that Indigenous Australians face great disadvantage, equally that the question of our national identity is an ever-weeping wound. The task therefore seems to be for us to reach a consensus on the methods which are used to extinguish disadvantage and the symbols, ceremonies and celebrations that will close that weeping wound. Furthermore, the foundation upon which such a consensus must be reached is surely understanding and connection. Understanding that our shared history on this land has its dark chapters, and that although no one alive today participated in the atrocities of the past, we must each carry the burden of that history. Connection through the sharing of the richness of language, ceremony and celebration that the long story of this land offers us all. It is in so many ways about shared ownership and celebration of the entirety of the timeline pre-

1788 through to this very day. It was through Black Lives Matter that the call came for the destruction of monuments and statues across Australia, something which we seemed to inherit once again as the 51st state – a deeply regressive thought which seeks not connection and understanding, but promotes division and galvanises it. In contrast, the bellow for change could have come in the form of a call to erect statues of great Indigenous figures such as Pemulwuy or Oodgeroo Noonuccal. Until we are prepared to allow our histories to mingle to see that our nation is richer for the story of our whole history – with all its triumph and tragedy – only then will we truly be on the path to peace. I believe most deeply that history has chosen this generation – my generation of Australians – to seek a resolution to the question of reconciliation. Though does this generation have the tolerance and good grace to see a resolution come?

Looking at the photos of how happy these gifts are making Mitchell really made my day.

THIRTY-TWO Emmanuel Care Centre (ECC) volunteers and staff attended the luncheon this week at Lazy River acknowledging the great support of Lazy River through COVID 19. Volunteers were updated on the organisations and individuals that ECC supports including the Wilberforce Foundation, Young Life and Compassion. Organisers of the luncheon told Dubbo Photo News it was a time of reconnecting and celebrating the continuation of the opportunity shop and welfare support through these changing times. And what a great setting Lazy River was on the day.

Thumbs Up to the SES who helped me clear an orange tree in my backyard that was almost out of the ground. Thank you so much! The help was very much appreciated.

Thumbs Up to the Macquarie Club for the nice new fence they have along the front of their facility, however instead of painting it black, I think it would have looked much better in a nice dark green.

Thumbs Down to people who purchase homes in lovely green, leafy areas in our city and shortly after moving in, cut down their trees. Perhaps our council could reintroduce their former rules regarding the removal of trees. At the moment the only rule seems to be “If it’s not on the footpath, go for your life and cut it down”.

Thumbs Up to Shannon Hart from Arbortec Tree Service for helping out the people at the mosque after that giant tree blew down in the storm last week, wrecking a car and blocking the car park entrance and trapping so many people. It’s great to see not everyone is only ever thinking of the almighty dollar.

Jane Taylor (ECC Op Shop Manager), Don Toews (Wilberforce Foundation) and Megan Rootes (EEC manager)

Di Baker and Marilyn Tuckey

Thumbs Up to local superintendent Peter McKenna and all the other police and volunteers involved in Project Walwaay for all the har work they’ve put in over so much time. Investing in our youth, especially those from the most underprivileged backgrounds, will return so much to the community. Hopefully all levels of government will now understand this simple truth and properly value and resource these homegrown grassroots initiatives.

Thumbs Down to Mayor Cr Davies comments. WELL SAID! I applaud your reply. I have a high regard for the Dubbo Photo News, keep up the great work to you and everyone involved!

Thumbs Up to Chris and the office lady at A1 Tree Service for their prompt, efficient and friendly service. Highly recommendable.

Thumbs Up to Roxy at the NSW IPTAAS Office for her professional and friendly face to face help. Older people really appreciate her for being caring and understanding and being able to speak to and see a real live person.

Thumbs Up to the sports section in Dubbo Photo News, the photos are a delight to look at every week and the content in the articles, well, you won’t get that anywhere else.

Karen Kneale has a sharp eye when it comes to identifying and photography the simple beauty of nature and in the past week or so, she’s been having a ‘natural’ field day. “I love this section in the paper. I love the flower on Patterson curse, I know it’s a weed, but still pretty. “The Jonquil flower in my garden says winter is here and the winter sunsets bring such peace in Dubbo.”

The Friends of the Dubbo Regional Botanic Gardens have gifted our city these fantastic stone sculptures. You can ﬁnd and enjoy these sculptures in the biodiversity section of the botanic gardens behind the Shoyoen Japanese Gardens PHOTOS: DUBBO PHOTO NEWS/KEN SMITH

The sun may be shining at the moment, but some forecasters are predicting plenty of rain for the remainder of the year with some speculation we could see floods in this region. Any flooding in North Dubbo could highlight whether the state government decision to spend $150 million taxpayer dollars on the controversial River Street Bridge was a good idea, or not. If the approaches to the bridge are inundated after a major rain event, as appears to be the case from aerial photographs taken during the 2010 Dubbo floods, the pressure will be on state MP Dugald Saunders to have another look at the project.

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.

By GEOFF MANN WITH apologies to the greatest singer/songwriter pianist, I can almost hear our local footballers humming the tune as they run onto No 1 Oval. A brilliant new surface underscored by a modern sand and gravel herringbone drainage system means the days of sideline to sideline sludge are over! In 1970 the Forbes Magpies upset CYMS in a Group XI grand final, aptly tagged “Mudbath”; four years later the New Zealand All Blacks rated conditions worse than anything they had encountered in Auckland and 20 years ago Brett Chippendale went tip-toeing through the mud to find a rare solid piece of turf from

which he launched a wobbly but match-winning field goal as Macquarie sank Narromine. Back in the 1940s John Meredith was snapped leading his CYMS mates off the pitch after a sodden – but “enjoyable” – clash. Players recall being unable to see, others the fun of sliding free across the barren pitch when the rains tumbled. In 1995 the Kangaroos won four premierships in Bathurst after sloshing through what I described on radio as a “muddy morass” at home in the final. Somehow the high-stepping Roos were able to overcome Orange City Lions in conditions more commonly associated with the apple city at the foot of Mt Canobolas. The old ground named in hon-

our of an ancient Queen has struggled over the years to cater on a regular basis for union and league, seniors as well as juniors, plenty of “big” games and the odd soccer challenge and the cricket pitch has taken a hammering. In the past twenty years Apex Oval has allowed the codes to split their events but once the Roos return, they will appreciate a much more salubrious stadium. No 1 Oval is a tribute to the local Cricket and AFL Associations and the Dubbo Rugby Club, which has called it “home” for 121 years. They have worked closely with a dedicated, professional team from Council in the meticulous design. Wes Giddings, Ben Pilon and before them Murray Wood, deserve an enormous vote of thanks

from all of us for their diligence and personal attention to detail. We are incredibly proud of their efforts under sometimes trying circumstances and should take great pride in what they have achieved. A new facility on the western side will welcome visitors and complement the Roos’ clubhouse. It will enable comfort and all-weather protection for fans as well as a perfect venue for sponsor days and events like charity and Ladies Days. Substantial funds from the NSW Government and Dubbo Regional Council have ensured Dubbo has a facility to match anything in the state and should ensure higher level competitions will be drawn to our city.

WHILE I was chasing some photos for our No 1 Oval makeover, I spoke to former Macquarie hooker Chris Delaney. The cheeky No 9 scored a try in the Raiders famous 19-18 win against Narromine and remembers the slime. “It took weeks to get off my body,” he laughed, while admitting that by the time he had finally found a shower there had been a few days of celebrations “and I may not have been too particular in scrubbing up straight after the game”! Chris also spoke of the “other side” of No 1. “If you played after rain and the sun had dried out the pitch, it became rock hard and there were grooves and ridges that ripped your skin. I remember one day we were playing Westside. Warwick Rapley – God rest his soul – and I decided at the pub on Fri night that we’d have ‘stand up tackles’ if we met on the flint-like surface. We forgot to tell Jason Hill”! Both ended up bloodied and bruised. “No one told me,” Jason smirked!

Parkes v Narromine Rugby Red Cross Charity Shield Contributed by ALLAN RYAN THE Red Cross Charity Shield Match is played at the first game of the season at Narromine, against the Parkes Boars. The two teams have a history of close games and on two occasions one each for the competition grand final. This year Parkes got out to a large lead and were well in front at half time, but as always Narromine never say die and well outscored Parkes in the second half. Parkes held out a strong finishing Narromine to win 25 to 19. As always, the real winner of the day was the Narromine Red Cross who came away with the gate takings for the day.

RUGBY UNION

Roos fans breathed a sigh of relief By GEOFF MANN Photos by MEL POCKNALL WHEN the referee blew time on Saturday afternoon’s Central West clash, hundreds of Dubbo Kangaroo’s fans let out a collective breath. After fighting back with a converted try to lead Forbes Platypii by two points with less than a minute on the clock, a Roo’s forward knocked on from the kick-off and when a teammate was caught offside the visitors had a chance to win with a penalty. The grandstand was silent, the heavy rain that had burst from the sky minutes earlier had receded and all eyes were on Forbes fullback Dan Higgins. When his kick with a slippery ball skewed to the left there was an audible gasp from the Bruce Neads Stand. It topped off a successful day for

the home club after with an easy win in Colts – their first for the season – and a tough struggle in Seconds the Firsts were expected to down the winless Platypii. That changed in the opening 10 minutes when Forbes steamrolled their way over out wide and then hugely impressive No 8 Matt Coles stole a ball on halfway and the visitors galloped away for a 14-nil lead. “Too many mistakes, too many hurried passes” was the general opinion from the stands but the late try by prop forward cum centre Johnny Mafiti, his third for the day, brought smiles to the Ladies Day crowd. Until... The Kangaroos travel to Bathurst this weekend determined to hold onto the Ken Laird Cup before home games against Orange City and Emus then a bye and a return trip to Forbes in the last round.

Fishies fall short against hungry Wolves By GEOFF MANN Photos by MEL POCKNALL

CYMS second-half fightback locked the scores at 18-all but back-to-back penalties took the Wolves from their own end of the field and they pounced on the hapless Fishies to clinch a memorable match 24-18.

Result: Glebe Burwood Wolves 24 (Sitiveni Moceidreke, Lorenzo Mulitalo, Thomas Hazelton, John Olive, Matt Stimson tries; Sitiveni Moceidreke 2 goals) Dubbo CYMS 18 (Joshua Toole, Jyie Chapman, Jack Quinn tries; Bayden Searle 3 goals) Right and below: Jack Quinn's experience at Penrith Panthers has been a bonus for CYMS.

AFL Juniors host Bushrangers By YVETTE AUBUSSON-FOLEY Photos contributed by KATIE HAVERCROFT

DUBBO Demons have withstood the threat of â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Rona and continue to improve the skills of all their juniors. Under sunny Sunday skies the club hosted Bathurst teams in Under 14s and 16s. The Demons 12s have already tasted success and the 14s are not too far off according to Dubbo Junior AFL president Merinda Roll. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Our Under 14s are still trying to find their game plan but get out there each week and work on improving themselves,â&#x20AC;? she told Dubbo Photo News. â&#x20AC;&#x153;This season like all, we encourage player participation. Our main focus is to improve our skills and have fun. If we win then that is a bonus. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We have a great family orientated culture within the Dubbo Junior AFL Club and its always a lot of fun each week for us as parents watching our players improving and finding their positions on the field.â&#x20AC;? She said the Demons are hopeful of fielding an U17 team in 2021 with the entire club working hard on recruitment across all ages. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We really want to showcase our talented and passionate players out to the community of Dubbo and beyond, and promote AFL to girls and boys,â&#x20AC;? she said.

Merinda drives from the other side of Narromine to participate and sees the Demons are a community sporting club building strength in numbers every year, feeling fortunate to be participating in a condensed 2020 season thanks to dedicated and hardworking volunteers, AFL NSW/ACT and Dubbo Regional Council for all the work that has been done with establishing and adhering to all the Covid-19 guidelines and protocols. The Demons always acknowledge their sponsors which include W&M Roll Agricultural Contracting and Engineering, David Payne Constructions, Dubbo Truck Cranes, Silkman Hockey Lawyers, Blueâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Meats Butchery and Ryan and Rankmore Accounting. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re all wonderful and we have three further major sponsors lining up for next season,â&#x20AC;? she said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Their support is most encouraging. We are thrilled with local businesses getting on board in backing us. â&#x20AC;&#x153;This tells me we are doing a great job within our community. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Once we renovate the new clubhouse it will provide a home for us to gather surrounded by all things footy. Having change rooms for the female players excites us so very much, so look out next season when AFL Dubbo celebrates its 40th year in the league,â&#x20AC;? Merinda said.

Tony Mann wins Western Vets golf title By GEOFF MANN NO, not giving myself a pat on the back... the only commonality between your correspondent and the WDVGA winner is the surname. Tony Mann from Narromine plays off plus five; my handicap is me. Tony, no relation, emerged from a field of 65 to add the Western Districtâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s individual trophy to the NSW 4-Ball title he won last year. Playing on home sand against golfers from the 13 Western Districtâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s clubs, Tony carded a two under par 68, six strokes clear of club mate Greg Barling. According to event coordinator Norm Lewis, so many players were

keen to be â&#x20AC;&#x153;un-COVIDEDâ&#x20AC;? the handicap section was divided into two divisions. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Division 1 winner was Steve Squires of Narromine with a 67 nett, one shot ahead of Chris Peter while Division 2 went to Will Brown from Cobar who carded the best score of the day, a six under par, nett 64! Allen Kelly from Dubbo finished runner-up with 72 on a countback from Dubbo Vets, Col Parkes and Keith Prendergast.â&#x20AC;? The Ladiesâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; 18-hole handicap was won by Vicki Gainsford (nett 75) from Trundleâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Suellen Taylor (77). Narromine Veterans Club President, Bruce Mitchell and match

committee members Ashley Bullock and Chris Harding filled in for Club Secretary Norm Lewis who was absent due to illness. In a light-hearted jibe, Norm says it took two men to do his job, but he was very grateful for the reports of another smoothly-run event.

Life of great service. DURING the presentation of trophies at the Western Districts event, WDVGA President Mal Mallison bestowed Life Membership on retiring secretary Geoff Smith in recognition of his many years of dedication to the sport. Malâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s after match tribute to the

Trangie golfer was warmly welcomed by all the players and members of the club in attendance. Mal also congratulated Narromine on conducting a highly successful tournament and paid special mention of the volunteer outdoor staff who had the course in top shape. Organisers also praised the ladies who had a busy time taking nominations and attending to the scores and results. The Narromine Veterans Club is one of the most highly regarded in the bush. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Last week the NSW governing body asked us to continue holding the state titles for another three

years,â&#x20AC;? a delighted Norm Lewis proclaimed. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The 2020 NSW Mens Sandgreen 4 Ball Championships has been a feature over the past five years. Next month plus three more years will take us within a pitching wedge of a decade of excellence and we are mighty proud to be afforded this honour,â&#x20AC;? Norm glowed on behalf of his Narromine â&#x20AC;&#x153;teamâ&#x20AC;?. Nominations for the NSWVGA State Championship to be held on 12th and 13th September close on Tuesday 1st Sep.

Marge hangs up her reins after 16 years By GEOFF MANN WHEN the mobile arms swing back to release the horses on Sunday, Marge Bradley will be enjoying her afternoon “doing other things”. After answering an ad for an Administration Officer just over 16 years ago, the now septuagenarian found herself immersed in a sport she knew little about. However Marge leaves the Dubbo Harness Racing Club (DHRC) with an intimate knowledge of the sport, a detailed insight into the running of a modern facility and a group of new friends. “Sixteen years ago the Harness Racing Secretary was required to fulfil an extensive role and at the time Dubbo conducted many more race meetings than we do today. Secretaries were required to ‘do the lot’ and Marge adapted extremely to her role and over the years she put together some outstanding race meetings,” President Len Edwards said. Marge agreed with him about the way things have changed in recent years. “When I started I had to accept nominations, allocate horses across the races, set the program, fill any gaps in the fields, liaise with sponsors, layout the race books, arrange advertising and make sure the finished document was printed,” Marge remembered. “It was quite a challenge at first but Chris Edwards who I took over from was a great help. He knew the job inside out but when he was appointed to the HRNSW Board he had to relinquish the Secretary’s job. I am forever grateful for his handover and ongoing support.” Marge says Harness Racing New South Wales took on a more active

role in Administration duties in the past few years. Len Edwards takes up the story. “This was aimed at relieving the workload of country clubs but when the local Secretary’s work-load was reduced and continued to be reduced, the DHRC was given no choice but to make changes.” Marge agreed it gave her the perfect opportunity to retire. “It’s funny, you know, I worked with Country Energy for 16 years before I stopped to care for my mum. I think that time span must be made for me,” she laughed. “Now I’m looking forward to 16 years – at least – of retirement; of not having to be somewhere

at a given time. From here on I’m constrained only by the virus but when I do get away, the time is mine. There’ll be no rushing back to arrange the next race meeting,” Marge said with excitement in her voice. Reflecting on her time with DHRC, Marge spoke if some particularly rewarding achievements. “The Red Ochre Mares Classic put DHRC in the spotlight. Our committees over the years led by fine harness racing lovers like Lester Coffee, John Whyte, Chris Edwards, David Wrigley, Jeff Costello and most recently, Lenny, had the vision and made it a reality. Last year, with the support of HRNSW we ran the first

2020 Mulvey and Astley Cups cancelled By JOHN RYAN THE Astley Cup sports competition was first held between the region’s high schools in 1923. In a devastating blow to students across the region, the 2020 Astley Cup has been called off. On Tuesday (August 18) the principals of Dubbo College, Orange High School and Bathurst’s Denison College released a joint statement announcing the cancellation of the 98th event. “The principals acknowledged that the safety of students and staff was of paramount concern, while they understood that the cancellation could cause some distress within their school communities,” the statement said. “The Astley Cup and Mulvey Cup is a longstanding tradition between the schools and they are now setting their

sights on the 99th Astley Cup scheduled for Term 2, 2021, and the 100th anniversary celebrations a year later. “This is the fourth time in the 98-year history of the interschool challenge that organisers have needed to cancel. The other cancellations included 1931 (The Great Depression) and 1940 (World War II).” Principals Marisha Blanco (Dubbo), Chad Bliss (Orange) and Ken Barwick (Bathurst) said in their statement that, on behalf of their entire school communities, “We unreservedly apologise for the distress this decision may have on your children or your families. It is a situation we just could not avoid.” Despite the recent COVID-19 spikes in Victoria and hotspots in Sydney which have seen community transmission of Coronavirus on the rise, many locals hoped that

events such as this in the bush would be spared cancellation. There was plenty of angst on social media as the news quickly spread across the city. “Noooo, this is so sad,” one comment read. “Heartbreaking,” went another. “Really disappointing for everyone, particularly the Year 12s and those Year 12s that have come up through the junior campuses looking forward to this great event,” one said. Another said, “An absolutely devastating result for the Year 12 students of all the schools. I sympathise with them all – it was such a highlight of our last year of high school.” And there was also the cynical, pointing out the inconsistencies in many of the government measures ostensibly aimed at keeping the community safe: “Tradition suffers. But the horse races can still go ahead.”

$50,000 race, a Group 3 event. The red dresses and ties signified a magnificent achievement for the club.” Mark pointed to the inaugural Carnival of Cups as a pivotal moment. “We worked hard to prepare a submission and when HRNSW announced we were one of only four clubs across the state to be granted the rights to host it just fired everyone up. It’s now a major draw card with top prize money and tremendous Cup fields across the entire program.” Marge also pointed to the camaraderie in the sport. “We’ve had a few lows but so many highs and through every challenge the fighting spirit of country people has shone through. We overcame the loss of

racing through equine flu. We’ve bonded together in some terrible droughts. We’ve celebrated each other’s successes and grieved at losses of family and friends.” Perhaps the best example of a community pulling together has come in the past few years. “The Gilgandra Gold Cup and Windmill have drawn people together. Graham and Judi Phipps, the Crenaune family, David Batten and others just wanted to bring everyone in before Christmas to celebrate the year and say thanks to those who have taken care of them at the hospital and in various service and charity groups. That’s what has made this a pleasure, much more than a job”. Thanks for the memories Marge. Now go and enjoy your golden years.

Nicole shaves to within three hundredths of her time ONE of the Dubbo Ducks’ most competitive competitors, Nicole Johnstone, went within 0.03 of her nominated time to claim the 25m freestyle on Sunday. The generous club and community contributor was smiling all day after her “near perfect” lap. Nic’s performance was the highlight but according to Judy Walsh, “there were plenty of other close times posted over the four events. “Nic took the honours but Greg Salmon was only 0.8 off his designated time!” Judy said it was also good to have one of the swimmers who started young back on deck. “Lucy Taylor took a break from her nursing and studying duties to win the Breaststroke Relay with Greg Jankowski. She also backed up as starter when Brian Schloeffel was in the water. Schloe was in fact standing in for our usual chief starter, John Wherritt, who has unfortunately had some forced rest and recreation. We’re all looking forward to having Wherro back in the pond. “Another highlight was having four of our younger ducklings splashing up

CYMS showed they can hold their own against their city counterparts despite going down 24-18 against Glebe-Burwood on Sunday. Inexperience probably led to a couple of lapses that halted a magnificent comeback but the gutsy Fishies lost nothing with their courageous display. The green and whites punched well above their weight to come within a converted try of upsetting their much heavier opponents.
