NATIONAL CARER’S WEEK

TIME TO CARE

By YVETTE AUBUSSON-FOLEY BILL Bladwell is the loving husband of Sue, and since her diagnosis of Alzheimer’s in 2011, he has been by her side, tirelessly supporting her in seeking treatments and therapy and prolonging her independence for as long as possible.

Sue knows nothing can be done to reverse her condition and as it progresses her reliance on Bill’s care will only increase, but their lived experience is something they both want to share – to eradicate stigma around her diagnosis and by default address this year’s National Carer’s Week theme: Making Caring Visible.

There are 904,400 carers in NSW and 2.6 million Australia-wide providing $17 billion per annum in support for their loved ones.

What carers provide and sacrifice, just might be the real definition of ‘superhero’.

‘Counsellors in schools’ election promise unfulfilled NSW LABOR is calling on the state government to address the chronic shortage of counsellors in schools across the state.

“The Government promised every public high school in NSW would have one full-time counsellor or psychologist and one student support officer as an election commitment but has failed to deliver,” Shadow Minister for Education Prue Car said.

Government data obtained by NSW Labor shows 84 per cent of schools do not have full-time counsellor despite the pledge being made more than a year ago.

RIVER STREET BRIDGE

Divisive bridge budget blows out

By LYDIA PEDRANA THE cost-controversial River Street Bridge has blown out to a whopping $220.2 million.

The increased budget comes as Federal Government announced it would pledge $176.2 million towards the project, while the State Government has decreased its initial investment of $140 million, to $44 million, in an 80/20 split.

According to Federal Member for Parkes Mark Coulton, the additional money will be put towards a new 2.3-kilometre link road between Thompson and Bourke Streets, as well as covering associated intersection upgrades.

Meanwhile, a press release from Mr Saunders’ office blamed further scoping and community consultation for the increased spend.

In making the announced, Mr Coulton reiterated the promise that the new bridge will help ease Dubbo’s congestion, maintain reliable access in the event of a flood and provide additional local employment opportunities.

“I’m very pleased this Government is investing in high-priority infrastructure projects in Dubbo that will ensure people in our community get home sooner and safer, while also delivering more jobs locally,” he said.

“The benefits of the project will include improved road safety, improved efficiency, better connectivity for our local road

networks and improved freight productivity.”

Member for the Dubbo Electorate Dugald Saunders “welcomed” news of the Federal Government’s investment, describing the project as an “immense benefit to the city.

“I have maintained all along that the bridge will be a game changer for Dubbo, not only on a day-to-day basis but particularly in the event of a flood when it will provide another high-level crossing of the Macquarie River for local traffic,” Mr Saunders said.

But not everyone is upbeat about the increased cost of the 545-metre bridge.

Deputy Mayor of Dubbo Ste-

phen Lawrence has slammed the increased cost of the project as “typical” of the National party, and “all about industry and vested interest, at the expense of local communities.

“The final price tag for the short-sighted River Street Bridge project is extraordinary and yet it will do nothing to ease traffic congestion in Dubbo, because it won’t get the Newell out of the centre of town,” he told Dubbo Photo News.

Like many who are in opposition to the River Street project, Mr Lawrence believes a bypass at the existing Troy Bridge would better benefit the growing city.

“What is really needed is to have a high-level crossing at Troy connecting to a bypass road, a low-level south bridge and then a lower level bridge in between town and Troy down the track,” he said.

“The overall price tag might be a bit more, though even that is debatable, but it would set us up for generations when it comes to traffic management.

“This half-baked approach to accommodating the freight industry when it comes to infrequent flooding does nothing for Dubbo and the people know it.”

Former truck driver and road expert, John Morris, questioned what the extra money will be used for.

“When they announced it back in 2017, it was $140 million and

that was the whole project, finished,” he said.

“All those intersections, the Thompson Street intersection and the Bourke Street intersection (upgrades) were all on the original plan.”

Mr Morris also believes easing west Dubbo’s congestion with a south bridge should be prioritised over the River Street Bridge project.

“It (west Dubbo traffic) is going to be a bigger bottleneck in the short term than the next flood problem,” Mr Morris said.

“Realistically, unless there is a major climate event of major flooding, I don’t think we will see the Macquarie River flood here again because the guys that handle the flood mitigation at Burrendong, they learned their lesson on the last flood in 2010, they actually let the water go 48 hours too late, if they had let it go a little bit earlier, we wouldn’t have had the 2010 flood.

“Realistically, day to day, every day of the year, we need the trucks out of West Dubbo.”

The new Federal funding is part of the Australian Government’s $2.7 billion investment into NSW transport infrastructure to boost the economy, make roads safer and create new jobs as part of the COVID-19 recovery plan.

Construction of the River Street Bridge is due to commence in 2022, with 2025 earmarked as the year it will open to traffic.

ISSUE

Mixed feelings over gas field approval

By LYDIA PEDRANA UNSURPRISINGLY, reactions to the approval of the $3.6 billion Narrabri Gas Project by the NSW Independent Planning Commission (IPC) have been mixed.

While some are slamming the decision as a “total disillusionment,” others have welcomed the news.

The controversial Santos project, which has the potential to allegedly supply enough natural gas for half of NSW, got the green light from the NSW IPC last week, subject to 134 stringent conditions.

The Country Women’s Association (CWA) of NSW, who have strongly opposed the project from the get-go, said the approv-

al “doesn’t stack up,” and is concerned that the conditions won’t be adhered to.

“If a project needs this many conditions, it’s an indication that they need to go back to the drawing board,” CWA of NSW CEO Danica Leys said.

“We’re concerned that compliance on conditions is severely lacking in any case.

“These companies get the green light and off they go, there’s no looping back to ensure all of these conditions are upheld into the future.

“Rural communities once again are left with the impacts.”

CWA of NSW are also worried about the lack of assurance on en-

vironmental, groundwater and farming impacts.

Meanwhile, local non-for-profit, member-driven group, Narrabri Industrial Network Inc (NIN), has “warmly welcomed” the approval of the project, believing it will be a key feature in aiding Australia’s economic recovery out of COVID-19 by offering 100 per cent domestic energy supply, creating opportunities for local manufacturing, jobs, regional diversification and legacy projects.

“The meticulous efforts by Santos and extensive State approval process has determined that the project is capable of development without harm to the environment or water table with conditions,”

NIN president Justin Smith said.

“Manufacturing, Technology and Infrastructure will be integral part of regional economic recovery from COVID-19, drought and bushfire.

“This project provides multiple prospects for these industries to flourish.”

Santos now needs a series of other approvals, including a rubber stamp from the Federal Minister for the Environment under the Environment Protection and Biodiversity Conservation (EPBC) Act. The project will see 850 wells spread over 1,000 hectares of the Pilliga State Forest, producing up to 200 terajoules of energy a day, for around 20 years.

Danica Leys from CWA of NSW has actively campaigned against the project, describing the approval as “a significant concern”. PHOTO: CONTRIBUTED

TRIVIA TEST

Wearable works of local art

By YVETTE AUBUSSON-FOLEY

DUBBO-BASED artist Maria Oates may never have thought to wear one of her paintings, but thanks to a chance encounter with Australian designer Michelle Barry, strangers will soon be doing exactly that, right around the country.

“When Michelle first contacted me, I just thought she wanted to buy one of my paintings, not create a collection with them!” Mrs Oates told Dubbo Photo News.

On September 18, Jade Boutique, Dubbo, revealed pieces from the collection for the very first time and the original artworks, “Entwined” and “Yellow Umbrella”, are also on display.

Ms Barry has long supplied M.A. Dainty to Jade Boutique, owned by local businesswoman, Dorla Gray.

It was this connection that made her notice Maria on Instagram.

“Maria’s Instagram page is called “oatesindubvegas”. It stood out to me because Maria’s from Dubbo, and I’ve known Dorla for years, so I had a look.

“I thought this is just what I’m looking for and that we needed to do something exciting and I looked at her art and thought this is fantastic.

“I contacted Maria straight away on Instagram and asked for her number so I could give her a call. I’ve never done that before.

I said, I’ve looked at your art and it’s absolutely beautiful and I was wondering whether you’d be interested, and she was terribly excited and away we went,” Ms Barry said.

“Michelle has been very supportive of us especially during the drought, always asking what she can do,” Ms Gray said. “Michelle’s very generous.

“When Michelle came across Maria on Instagram, she was so excited. Because Michelle’s in Melbourne, everything’s flat and awful, so it’s really good,” Ms Gray said.

Ms Barry says part of the joy of everything that’s happened, is giving someone else joy.

“I feel very honoured for Maria to have allowed me to do this as a collaboration. I’ve also kept her in the loop with everything we’ve been making, having sneak peeks

“It would be devastating if somebody took your work and did something that was not what you loved, you know. It’s just been a joy and she’s such a beautiful lady.

“I’m a country girl, so for me to give the opportunity for others to

see her art – because it is beautiful – and I think artists are so special and often they don’t get a run. If it gives her more opportunity, that gives me more pleasure,” she said.

Australian fashion label M.A. Dainty was founded by Ms Barry in 2011 and is named after her Great Aunt, Maud Alice Dainty, a woman of the world who docu-

mented her travels, shopping adventures and photographs in daily journals and now fill the head office, the home of the M.A.Dainty label, in Melbourne.

From the sale of scarves in the Maria Oates inspired M.A.Dainty collection Jade Boutique will be donating proceeds toward supporting the PCYC’s youth outreach program.

FOLLOWING the success of a trial between Dubbo Regional Council (DRC), Ballina Shire Council, and Fly Pelican, the popular Dubbo-Ballina flight route will be extended until January 31, 2021, with additional flights also added to the schedule.

Fly Pelican will operate a Tuesday service from October 20, leaving Dubbo at 8:40am and returning from Ballina at 12:30pm.

“With the weather getting warmer, now is the perfect time to visit,” Ballina Shire Council Mayor David Wright said.

“We urge visitors to get in quick though, as the Northern Rivers region is bound to be popular this summer, as more of NSW decides to holiday at home this year.”

NATIONAL CARER’S WEEK

Popular water scheme extended

Ask for help!

By YVETTE AUBUSSON-FOLEY BRIAN Nicholls didn’t notice how caring for his lovely wife Kath was impacting his own health – until he asked for help.

“I’ve been doing this now for eight years with no support. I’m old school so it’s my responsibility to look after my wife. I can do it, I’m a man, I can work 16-hour days and still look after my wife, because that’s just the old country attitude,” Mr Nicholls told Dubbo Photo News.

“Children help but I’m there, I’m on the battlefield all the time.”

Kath lives with bipolar depression and years of medication have affected her physically, resulting in mobility issues as well.

“She needs help with tying her shoes because she can’t bend over. She doesn’t go shopping. I do the washing and the cleaning.

She washes the dishes but she has to sit down if she gets tired.

Because of the medication she’s on, that’s already done a lot of damage.

“It does impact your life. I got to the stage where I was the same as her. I didn’t want to go out, because it just wasn’t worth making her go out, making her do things.

It was seven days a week just me and Kath and the dog,” he said.

“But you don’t realise. Like, if you’re sick, you just struggle through. You don’t go to the doc-

tor, and you don’t get checked out.

“Twelve months ago we joined Central West Car Cruiser’s Club they go out every now and then, so I take her out and try to get her interacting with them. They’ve been talking to her and this helps,” he said.

In the last six months the couple have taken three more significant steps towards supporting Kath’s recovery.

“Kath’s getting an NDIS payment now, and we get a cleaner in now to clean the house so I can sort of focus on what I have to do for her and then go to work, so my stress is less.

After Kath had a fall while Brian was at work, and she lay on the floor for seven hours unable to reach the phone they invested in a smart watch.

“She’s got a smart watch now.

It’s connected to the internet, and she can push a button to message me and let me know if she’s on the floor if I’m out. If it seems urgent enough we can ring ‘triple zero’ but she can also call on the watch.”

There is another person helping them both who Mr Nicholls describes as a “Godsend”.

“Reenie at the Compass Centre.

Kath can come to Compass three days for four hours and I can go to work knowing she’s okay and being looked after. Just getting away from the home and doing

MORE livestock producers in the Federal Parkes electorate will have access to practical support to help them cope with drought, with the Australian Government committing another $50 million for the popular On-farm Emergency Water Infrastructure Rebate Scheme.

The rebate pays up to 25 per cent of eligible infrastructure costs, capped at $25,000, and can be used by livestock producers to drill new bores, desilt dams and install pipes, tanks and troughs.

“It is a practical program which incentivises investment in onfarm water infrastructure projects, and this top-up means more livestock producers in my electorate can benefit,” Federal Member for Parkes Mark Coulton said.

something different helps a lot with your mental wellbeing.

“After getting all this help, with Reenie at Compass Centre and NDIS, it’s taken that stress off me.

I didn’t realise how much better and easier things can be, with a

little bit of help. It’s just taken the burden off me.”

Brian’s message to other men in particular, but to any carer trying to go it alone: “Get out and get help. Change. Change your attitude. Getting help, helps.”

IN BRIEF

Easing of rural and regional restrictions backed by councils

By YVETTE AUBUSSON-FOLEY IT sounds too good to be true, but the Newcastle Permanent Charitable Foundation is actually giving away dollars. Local charities are being encouraged by foundation chair Jennifer Leslie to apply for grant funding especially if you have projects addressing key areas of health, young people and social disadvantage.

“I encourage Central West charities to put forward their grassroots projects that address important local issues. This year we have improved our application portal and website which now includes a more efficient expression of interest process and improved guidance materials so charities can continue to focus on their important work in the community.

“Since 2003 the Charitable Foundation has approved over $22 million in funding to almost 500 community projects and initiatives, all in regional NSW. Each successful project is selected for its ability to make a meaningful

difference to the lives of people and build healthy, safe and resilient local communities.

“We’re looking forward to continuing our work with Central West charities as together we can improve social and well-being outcomes for community members in need,” Ms Leslie said.

In the Central West, the Charitable Foundation has previously funded $35,000 to SHINE for Kids Cooperative Ltd for their “Storytime in Wellington” program, keeping kids connected during COVID-19, $73,000 to LeaderLife to purchase a vehicle and equipment for their Soil 2 Soul program

and $60,000 to Veritas House for their Transitional Housing for Homeless Youth program.

“We’re looking to fund projects that use innovative solutions, but also deliver a local approach to addressing important community issues, including those arising due to the social and economic effects of COVID-19.

“Our vision is to support projects that help to rewrite the future for people who are in need in our regional communities,” Ms Leslie said.

The Charitable Foundation provides approximately $750,000 to fund projects and initiatives

across regional New South Wales twice a year.

To be eligible a group must be endorsed by the Australian Taxation Office as a Type 1 Deductible Gift Recipient and hold Tax Concession Charity status, be registered with the Australian Charities and Not For-Profit Commission, and be a not-for-profit organisation which is charitable at law, and a legal entity such as an incorporated association of corporation. Groups are encouraged to review the guidance information available at www.charitablefoundation.com.au.

Applications close October 22.

SEVERAL councils have thrown their support behind NSW Labor’s calls for the government to consider easing COVID-19 restrictions in rural and regional NSW. Shadow Minister for Local Government, Greg Warren, said it didn’t make sense for pubs, club and restaurants in Cooma, Cessnock or Coraki to be subject to the same restrictions as those in Castle Hill, Carlingford or Clovelly.

“Applying a bit of common sense regarding the easing of restrictions would make an enormous difference to rural and regional areas throughout NSW,” he said.

“Placing restrictions on communities that have remained largely isolated from the virus seems counterproductive and unnecessary.”

Johno and the blind chick

Two-time Paralympian, Grand Prix-level dressage rider and local author, Sue-Ellen Lovett has turned moments of her extraordinary life into her first book, called “Johno and the Blind Chick”. PHOTO: CONTRIBUTED

By YVETTE AUBUSSON-FOLEY TWO-TIME Paralympian, Grand Prix-level dressage rider and local author, Sue-Ellen Lovett has turned moments of her extraordinary life into her first book, called “Johno and the Blind Chick”.

Telling the story about how a real-life soul match – her beloved horse Johno – helped her overcome the trials and tribulations of being blind, the story begins

in her childhood when aged 12, she learnt she had inherited retinitis pigmentosa from her mother and was given a full prognosis from her specialist that she would lose her vision completely – and all the abilities that usually go with it.

What the specialist didn’t know then, is the stuff Sue-Ellen is made of or that she would one day be ranked fourth in the world and a member of the Bronze Med-

al Team at the Grand Prix-level dressage World Championships in Denmark.

She has dozens of awards and has competed against able-bodied riders at the highest level of international competition.

She has undertaken 10 long distance rides covering over 16,000 kilometres and raised more than $3.2million for various charities.

“Johno and the Blind Chick” gives readers a unique insight

into the remarkable journey of her beautiful horse and his oncein-a-lifetime rider, from the moment they met.

“This book will make you feel inspired, driven and hopeful that for every horse out there, there is one person to make them feel no longer just another in the crowd.

A book full of laughter, tears and magic,” two time Olympian and Australian Equestrian rider Lyndal Oatley said.

Cotton business fined for unlawful drawing of water from Macquarie THE Land and Environment Court (LEC) has fined a Moree company $252,000 for allegedly pumping water from the Macquarie River via an unlawful, 2-kilometre-long, 30-metre-wide channel built in 2015.

In a case brought by the Natural Resources Access Regulator (NRAR), the company was convicted of constructing and using a channel to convey water without approval, a breach of section 91B(1) of the Water Management Act 2000.

“In times of scarce supply every drop counts, and we will continue to take strong regulatory action when required to deliver effective, transparent and accountable enforcement of our water laws,” NRAR’s chief regulatory officer Grant Barnes said.

In his judgement, LEC Honourable Justice Tim Moore noted that where a substantial, cotton-growing enterprise has constructed unlawful works as part of its business activities, a strong deterrence message must be sent to all water users.

The company will also be required to publish a public notice outlining the judgement in both The Land and the Moree Champion.

ATA ramps up rural and regional Country Chapter in Dubbo THE Australian Taxpayers’ Alliance, the nation’s largest grassroots advocacy group representing taxpayers, has announced they are ramping up their Country Chapter.

The ATA’s Country Chapter led by Mick Etheridge in Dubbo, NSW focuses on bringing the same principles we fight for at the ATA to rural and regional Australia including lowering taxes, reducing burdensome regulation, and ending government waste.

“We value the hard work put in by Mick Etheridge and others in our Country Chapter. Australia needs people on the ground advocating for the issues most impacting their communities,” said ATA policy director Emilie Dye. “So many government abuses happen on the local and city levels.”

“Country folk are often ignored in favour of feel-good policies coming out of Australia’s cities. What sounds good in pa-

per sitting on a Sydney-based bureaucrat’s desk doesn’t necessarily work on the ground in Dubbo or in other regional towns.”

“Right now, Dubbo is dealing with government waste at its worst. The government is spending $195 million in taxpayer dollars to build a bridge the people living in the community don’t want.”

“Nearly 10,000 residents of a town with a population of only 38,000 have signed a petition objecting to the bridge. And yet the

government still isn’t listening.”

“Country people want more of a say in their government. They don’t need cookie-cutter infrastructure projects, subsidises, or handouts. They need the government to take a step back and give them the freedom they need to grow their own communities.”

“The ATA is pushing for a more efficient, effective, transparent, and accountable government both locally and federally.

Policies should represent the interests of the people.”

CEF STUDENT IMPACT REPORT 2020:

Growth in the face of adversity Country Education Foundation of Australia (CEF) CEO Juliet Petersen is all smiles at the news $1,755,640 has been awarded to rural students this year in support of their education. PHOTO: CONTRIBUTED

THE annual Country Education Foundation of Australia (CEF) Student Impact Report shows 650 youth from the rural and regional communities in the CEF footprint have received financial grants to access post school education and training. $1,755,640 has been awarded to students for educational items such as textbooks, laptops, uniforms and associated travel.

The 27-year-old national education charity has made contributions to improving pathways, outcomes and opportunities for young rural and regional Australians through the distribution of $12,693,534 and 6000-plus individual grants and scholarships.

CEF also supports and mentors grant recipients throughout their studies. For most of the students, it is about knowing their community is behind them.

CEF CEO, Juliet Petersen explains, “From every dollar raised at a community fundraiser to the crucial relationships with philanthropists and universities, we are confident that all the funds raised are going where they are needed most. With every dollar invested in the work of CEF, a social return of $4.99 is generated.”

We’re extending the JobKeeper Payment until 28 March 2021.

The Australian Government is extending the temporary JobKeeper Payment to the end of March 2021. From 28 September, businesses must meet the turnover test and submit their declarations by the 14th of each month.

There will be two new payment rates – one for those who work more than 20 hours per week in the relevant period, and another for those who work less. The employee eligibility date has also changed to 1 July, meaning some businesses could claim for more staff.

It’s part of our plan to keep business in business, and Australians in jobs.

NATIONAL CARER’S WEEK

The ‘C’ Word

By BRIANA BLACKETT MY mother was the first person to ever call me the C word. Here’s why she wasn’t the last.

It’s a day I’ll never forget. It started off in the usual way, taking my 6-year-old to school then heading to the café with my 4-year-old. I wasn’t just a self-declared yummy mummy hanging out with her adorable son. I was on a serious mission. Our café ritual was an important part of Master Four’s therapy. It was a chance to learn how to sit still in a restaurant, how to handle the noisy chaos of people coming and going, and the pressure of performing on cue – that is, placing an order. We came to this particular café once a week. Over time, the chef got to know us, or at least, our regular order. One day, during his break, we started chatting. We talked about the nice weather. How it was particularly busy for a Tuesday. He asked if I was a local. He asked if I was a “housewife”.

“No,” I said automatically, “I’m a jour...”.

And then I stopped. I was going to tell him I was a journalist.

Because that’s what I’d been telling people for almost 20 years. I was all ready to explain to him that I lived overseas and worked on foreign news. I could have told him anything he wanted to know about Somalia. Or why the Indian Chinese border is a place to watch. I could have given him a different perspective on Iran. And worried to him about Yemen. But I stopped myself. I realised that, for the better part of a year, I hadn’t actually reported on any of these things. I hadn’t even stepped foot inside a newsroom.

Instead, I had quit my job to look after my kids who both have autism.

So, I corrected myself. “Yes”, I said, “I am a housewife”.

For some reason this really bothered me so, when I got home, I called my mum.

“I’m a housewife!” I exclaimed.

“No, you’re not,” she replied, “you’re a carer”.

I didn’t quite know what that was, but I argued with her anyway. I wasn’t a carer. Just a mum helping her children. This was a

temporary situation...until I get my kids sorted...right?

Many carers don’t realise straight away that they are indeed carers. When life throws them a curve ball, they instinctively step up to catch it. Then, eventually, they step back from regular life. They stop going out so much. They stop going out at all. They stop going for promotions at work. They stop going to work altogether. Sometimes, as in my case, the transition is so gradual they don’t even realise it’s happening. Until one day, you’re sitting in a café and someone asks if you’re a housewife.

This gradual loss of identity is one of the most difficult, and loneliest, parts of being a carer.

Where we were once valued as productive members of society, we are now just a parent, partner, sibling or child. We aren’t seen as contributors despite the fact that our unpaid labour saves the economy more than $77 billion a year.

My dad once told me how frustrated he sometimes feels when his well-meaning friends don’t quite get it. Despite knowing I

have two children with complex needs, they regularly ask if I’ve “found a job yet”. He says he’s at the point where he doesn’t know what to say any more. There was a time I would have felt the same

LIFE Education’s Healthy Harold, the loveable giraffe known to generations of Dubbo locals from their school days, is calling for residents in Dubbo to look out for kid’s eye health in light of World Sight Day, October 8.

Partnering with leading eye care retailer OPSM kids and parents are encouraged to consider the importance of early and regular eye health checks for kids to curb the increasing issue of Myopia (short-sightedness).

There are a number of signs to look out for in your child including distance vision becoming blurred, moving closer to the TV, reduced performance at school, complaints of headaches, tired and squinting eyes.

“We’re very excited to be partnering with OPSM to help raise awareness of the importance of looking after your eyesight, especially when screen time has become such a big issue in today’s society. And Healthy Harold, our mascot, will help us encourage Dubbo kids to look after their eye health,” Life Education CEO Kellie Sloane said.

There have been more than 300 different Kit Kat flavours in Japan, including soy sauce, “European cheese” and wasabi. Some of them are limited or regional editions.

Because the chocolate bar’s name coincidentally sounds like the Japanese expression “Kitto Katsu”, which translates to “You will surely win”, it is a popular good-luck gift for students ahead of their university exams.

MOBILE SUCCESS

Mechanical doctor

DUBBO PHOTO NEWS

AT just 22 Jack Ramon has already been running his own business fixing heavy trucks for almost three years.

He started his trade at just 16 and developed plenty of loyal followers as he progressed through his apprenticeship on Kenworth Trucks in Dubbo.

“I went straight out of Year 10 at Gilgandra High School into the apprenticeship, I knew what I wanted to do when I was younger, I always knew I wanted to be a mechanic so when I got the opportunity to go ahead with it I just took it and ran with it,” Mr Ramon told Dubbo Photo News.

He said as a kid he was always mucking around with engines and playing around with stuff on the family farm “I actually wanted to be a plant mechanic, but I got the truck apprenticeship and since then I’ve worked on all aspects of cars and heavy machinery, agricultural equipment and I’ve found I prefer the trucks, so it worked out well.”

As a young bloke starting out on his own business he said he’s had to learn not just how to fix trucks, but also how to get clients, organise and book in jobs, source spare parts, ensure he has up-to-date diagnostic equipment for the latest model trucks, set up insurances, fill out regulatory paperwork and chase people up to pay their bills.

It’s a daunting array of skills he’s had to learn in a short period of time, and he said the pressure can be overwhelming.

“It can get on top of you sometimes but as you grow and get busier that other side of the job gets busier as well so you’ve kinda’ got to keep up with it and get a bit of a system going.”

He said that background training to show apprentices how to run their own businesses wasn’t covered during the TAFE component of his course and says you have to learn everything on the run.

“I think there should be some help in there,

yeah, I think a lot of younger people out there are wanting to go out on their own but just don’t really know how to go about it, how to get started, I think they do need to teach more of that sort of thing, for sure,” he said.

Working at Kenworth its important to take pride in your work so when you do go out on your own you already have a good reputation.

And he likes the challenge of rolling up to a highway breakdown and knowing the onus is on him to the big rig up and running “In the transport industry everybody’s always in a hurry, everybody needs to be there yesterday so you have to be pretty efficient to get people moving and going, but it can be daunting.

“Sometimes people will ring you and you’ve got a fair idea of what the problem will be before you get there, but you’ve still got to go through the steps to get to the end result.”

On starting his own business, Mr Ramon said it’s a matter of taking one step and then another.

“You’ve got to start small and work your way up, you’ll get yourself caught out if you don’t, if you second guess, you’ve always got to go through the steps and process to work it out,” he said, believing there’s no substitute for hard work.

“My mates think I’m mad sometimes, the hours that I do – yesterday I started at 7am and didn’t get home until 11pm, you do big hours some days.

“I think you don’t get anywhere unless you put in the hours, you can only get so much done in eight hours.”

He says he always seem to be booked out at least a week in front so he knows what he’s doing in advance, but obviously things can change so he’ll make up time on urgent jobs by working on the weekend or work after hours.

“I recommend any young people to have a go if that’s what you think you’d like to do – just start small and bite off too much at once get the confidence and experience, that’s the key.”

MENTAL HEALTH MONTH

Mental health initiatives for small business

By YVETTE AUBUSSON-FOLEY

BEYOND Blue is receiving praise for its initiative to support the mental health of small business owners.

A free online training course to help small business advisers provide mental health support to small business owners impacted by the COVID crisis, was launched by Beyond Blue on October 1, at the start of Mental Health Month.

“Given small business loans are often secured against the family home, the stakes are incredibly high and that is understandably taking a huge toll on small business owners’ mental health,” Australian Small Business and Family Enterprise Ombudsman Kate Carnell said.

“Beyond Blue is responding to the needs of small businesses, by providing evidence-based training to trusted advisers – who small business owners often turn to in times of crisis.

“Equally small business advisers are in a good position to notice if their client is

struggling to cope,” said.

A local supporter of agribusiness families, who often work from home alone, and are exposed to the impact of adversity more than most, is Rural Adversity Mental Health Program, Western NSW coordinator Camilla Herbig.

She says mental health is something we all have, just like physical health.

“I believe we all have the opportunity and the right to be happy and lead fulfilling lives and enjoy helping people build skills to cope with adversity and be well.

“My role is to educate and inform people about mental health and illness and connect them to the supports they need.

This covers a range of mental health problems as well as other life challenges such as financial concerns, relationship problems, grief, workplace wellbeing and more.

The Rural Adversity Mental Health Program (RAMHP) covers all of rural NSW. “My region spans from Dubbo to the Queensland border, assisting anyone in

the western region to learn about mental health and the skills and supports available to them. Our website has some fabulous information and resources available as well as details for our Coordinators – www.ramhp.com.au When asked if you could improve mental health services in this region, Ms Herbig suggested two areas to be worked on.

“One, develop skills and confidence in all community members to be well and start conversations to support others; and two, build a sustainable local workforce. We need more people from our region training in health and medical roles who want to work in our region long term.

“We all have a story. Some people may have experienced more challenges than others, but what is important is what we learn and how we grow from these.

I have learnt how crucial it is to listen and support others rather than trying to solve their problems, plus taking time out for me. Self-care is not selfish,” she said.

Go green for young workers

By YVETTE AUBUSSON-FOLEY AT the tail end of years of drought, COVID-19, job insecurity and talk of the country’s first recession in 30 years, 2020 remains a challenge for young workers.

If they’re trying to manage a mental health issue or condition too, support by way of destigmatising mental health goes along way.

“If I could improve mental health services in this region, I’d suggest more early intervention and education for young people to assist in de-stigmatising mental health,” Headspace Dubbo community and youth engagement coordinator Amy Mines said.

“Mental health is a continuum, just like physical health – we all have or know someone who has periods of physical and mental health wellness as well as physical and mental health

illness.

“I’d like to see further education around mental health and support for those supporting young people such as their family, teachers and sporting coaches,” she said.

Specifically assisting young people aged 12 to 25 years, and their family and friends, they can also host Headspace events or activities within a business or organisation.

“We know that one in three young people will experience mental ill health for the first time between the age of 12 to 25 years – so when they do, we want to be the ones who have their back,” Ms Mines said.

“Working with youth we see lots of mental health issues as it is such a tricky time in their lives to navigate from relationships (family, friends, romantic), identity and sexuality, stress of school, work and study, bullying on and offline, intense

emotions, family breakdowns, self-harming, drug and alcohol abuse, suicidality and grief and loss.”

To raise awareness that help is at hand, Headspace is inviting Dubbo businesses to jump on board with Headspace Day, Wednesday, October 12.

“This year we’re asking schools and businesses to join us in celebrating Headspace Day by hosting an event. It can be a morning tea, you can wear green, slime a teacher – the opportunities are endless,” Ms Mines said.

While fundraising for the centre is welcome, the team will be paying it forward by directing money raised back into the school, business or community group who raised it.

“We’ll be using money raised to host Headspace events or activities within the organisation that donated it. That way we can create free tailored events to

promote mental health awareness,” Ms Mines said.

To register your event, visit the Headspace Dubbo Facebook page and follow the sign-up instructions, and the team will be in touch.

All Headspace staff have lived experience as well as specialised training in working with young people and their families to assist them all through their adolescent development.

“Mental health matters, just as much as your physical health – don’t ignore those small signs, speak to someone early on, get support, there is plenty out there, the sooner you talk to someone the easier things will become and you won’t have to struggle as much.

Headspace Dubbo is operated by lead agency Marathon Health and supported by funding from Western NSW Primary Health Network through the Australian Government’s PHN Program.

HISTORY

Telling the Railway Institute’s tales

By YVETTE AUBUSSON-FOLEY

THE Railway Institute Hall was once a beating heart of Dubbo’s social events, dances, community group meetings, community festivities and wedding receptions, including that of Jack McCauley and Pamela Stoddard in 1954.

Teasing a thread of the hall’s history with a photo of the reception, and posted on the Dubbo Memories Facebook page, Mr McCauley’s son, Steve Hodder, has prompted a welling of interest and he’s keen to hear more stories but especially to see more photographs of this important and historic building.

“Not enough of Dubbo’s significant buildings are preserved in pictures, and often they’re knocked down without any sort of consideration for their heritage,” Mr Hodder said.

Sadly, the hall was demolished in 1987 without fanfare and its significance to the lives of Dubbo’s history, not preserved.

“I don’t really know what I’m going to do with the information at this stage,” he told Dubbo Photo News.

Mr Hodder is working on a

book about Tracker Riley but he’s also interested in preserving the history of the Railway Institute Hall by collecting images and recollections.

Suzanne Duffy, former Dubbo ballet teacher and one-time student of the Joyce Schneider School of Ballet (which called the Railway Institute Hall home), remembers the stinking hot summers dancing in the hall without air-conditioning and getting splinters from the floorboards.

If you have photographs of the Railway Institute Hall inside or out, please contact Mr Hodder on 0419620758 or email him at s.hodder@bigpond.net.au. If you have access to Facebook, please visit the Dubbo Memories page, and join the conversation.

you’ll try to clearly identify your next steps. If you want your future to meet your expectations, you need to make a plan.

AQUARIUS: You’ll spend a lot of time reflecting on your environment and eventually make significant changes to your surroundings. You’ll need to assess your priorities and determine what’s best for you.

Mitchell Ray heads to DubVegas for the long weekend DUBBO’S bravest little boy, Mitchell Ray, took some wellearned time out of the hospital, heading home to Dubbo over the long weekend.

He dropped in on his Great Nan Carol, cousins, aunties and uncles in Grenfell where he was also picked up in “Optimus Prime”, a huge truck arranged especially by local, Tim Dunn.

Back in Dubbo, Mitchell was able to go home for the first time since January, where he was lucky enough to enjoy a soft serve ice-cream from the Mrs Whippy van.

A safer place to live and a great

Catch ups with family and friends and finding time for a Harley ride too, Mitchell is headed back to Sydney where he had an appointment with an oncology clinic early this week.

“We’ve had a wonderful, busy, time away. We’re so sorry that we’ve missed so many people that we would love to see in both towns, but we will keep coming back. While Mitch is so well, we want to keep exposing him to awesome experiences as well as family and friends,” Mitchell’s mum Erin said.

Gifted a turtle over the weekend, Mitchell christened him “Mr Turtle”.

Wazza’s boots are made for walkin’

By JOHN RYAN WAZZA’S walking around Australia for Beyond Blue and aims to cover about 40,000 kilometres in the three years of his odyssey.

The purpose of the trek is to raise awareness about the issue of mental health.

Dubbo Photo News caught up with Wazza near the zoo and he had some company – he said people who hear about his journey often walk with him part of the way, an Aussie version of Forrest Gump.

“Last year I walked from Tamworth to Adelaide and back for Beyond Blue, I went through Dubbo and had a beer with your mayor at the Castlereagh Hotel,“ he told Photo News “It was 4000 kilometres and I raised $5000.

“It’s a good news story for people suffering mental illness during this time to show hope – I also suffer illness which is why I’m doing this journey again but longer.”

Wazza is paying for the expenses on the trip from his own pocket and he pushes his gear in a specially built pram.

He’s only a week or two into the three-year trip and has already survived one emu attack.

Good luck mate.

anything.

That’s the heartbreak currently facing the Smith family in Wellington, so now Homicide Squad detectives are re-appealing for public help to solve this mystifying case.

Here’s a recap.

On April 27 this year police were called to Wellington Base Hospital after a man presented with a gunshot wound to his abdomen.

Despite the efforts of hospital staff, the man was unable to be revived.

The man was formally identified as 48-year-old Wellington resident, Frank Smith.

Homicide Squad Commander, Detective Superintendent Danny Doherty, said police are re-appealing to the community for information as inquiries into Frank’s murder continue.

“Over the past five months,

Homicide police busy WELLINGTON has been a hotspot for Homicide detectives in recent months, now a seventh person has been charged for the slaying of a Bandidos boss on January 14 at a property on Catombal Road, Eurimbla, about 50km south of Wellington.

Police responded to reports a man had been shot, locating the body of 60-year-old Bandidos OMCG Central West Chapter president, Shane De Britt, who had suffered a gunshot wound to the head.

The Homicide Squad commenced an investigation into the circumstances surrounding the man’s death under Strike Force Kerrison and so far detectives have arrested five men – aged 58, 39, 38, 37 and 22 – and a 34-yearold woman.

All six were charged over their alleged roles in the shooting murder and remain before the courts.

Following further investigations, a 39-year-old man was arrested at Orange about 2.45pm on September 30. He was taken to Orange Police Station and charged with murder and participate criminal group contribute criminal activity.

Investigations under Strike Force Kerrison are continuing.

Donato fights for police pay FORMER police officer and deputy leader of the Shooters Fishers and Farmers Party, Phil Donato MP, has thrown his support behind the NSW Police Association’s “Worth More Than Zero” anti-pay freeze campaign.

Left: Retained firefighter Penford Feo accepted the Excellence in Community Engagement Award from FRNSW assistant commissioner Rob McNeil.

“As a former police officer, I know just how demanding police work actually is,” Mr Donato said.

“Police face relentless adversity from every angle, and danger is ever present. When cops put on their uniform and say goodbye to their family as they head out the door to work their shift, they don’t know if they’ll come home scathed by injury, or if they’ll even return home at all.

“Police are relied upon to protect our community, twenty-four-seven, but over time our police become battle-scarred, both physically and psychologically. Police, and their families, suffer a personal cost, but the Government clearly place no value on that,” he said.

Mr Donato also said it added insult to injury when Premier Gladys Berejiklian oversaw some significant pay rises for government bureaucrats and senior executives.

“A self-induced paper cut is as dangerous an injury a bureaucrat or executive will realistically face, yet they’re given substantial pay rises in addition to their already handsome salaries,” Mr Donato said.

Police Association president Tony King said NSW police officers carry an incredible load each year but claims 2020 has seen an increase by as much as 30 per cent through the demands of work related to COVID-19.

“We started 2020 with the understanding that a pay rise limited to 2.5 per cent would roll over from July 1, in tandem with our new industrial Award which has now expired,” Mr King said.

“The pig-headed imposition of a pay freeze has been an insult to our members and is the reason we are running a Worth More Than Zero campaign. The continuous flood of praise for the work that’s being done by NSW Police are just empty words if they aren’t being backed up with action.

“Police in Queensland and Victoria have not been treated with such disregard,” Mr King said. z Send your news tips to john.ryan@panscott.com.au or 0429 452 245 txt is best

CRIME

IN BRIEF

Local crime rates show room for improvement

Tips on managing mice in crops

By LYDIA PEDRANA DOMESTIC violence related assault and drug possession or use remain a concern within the Dubbo council region, according to the latest NSW Bureau of Crime Statistics and Research (BOCSAR) data.

Shockingly, the average fiveyear trend reveals domestic violence related assault cases in the area are up 12.5 per cent on average each year.

The actual number of domestic violence related assault cases did dip slightly to 662 in the 12 months from July 2019 to June 2020, compared to 674 cases in the previous 12 months.

For comparison, this is a dramatic increase from the 413 cases reported between July 2015 and June 2016.

Meanwhile, the five-year average annual increase of the possession or use of cannabis and amphetamines has increased 11.7 per cent and 13.3 per cent respectively.

Fraud has also jumped 15.4 per cent in the five years to June 2020.

In better news, dwelling break and enter cases have decrease by an average of 9.2 per cent over the past five years.

Orana Midwestern Police District’s Acting Commander, Superintendent Paul Stephens. PHOTO: DUBBO PHOTO NEWS

Orana Midwestern Police District’s Acting Commander, Superintendent Paul Stephens, said the command’s pre-emptive approach to crime is behind the rise in reported criminal cases.

“Generally, across the board our reactivity, so reacting to police reports and things like that, is being outweighed by our proactive approach,” he told Dubbo Photo News.

“As far as the domestic violence side of it, we do Apprehended Violence Order (AVO) compliance checks where we actively go out and check to ensure compliance with the existing conditions that are there and engage with both sides of it, both those who are down as the defendant in the orders and the persons in need of protection.

“In being proactive, the persons

in need of protection are being shown that we are listening and we want to make sure everything is alright which is making them more comfortable with their reporting processes and that, and it’s also the case that we are very proactive in the case of domestic violence matters anyway and part of that is making sure that we proactively investigate.”

Increased presence and activity within the local community is also part of the command’s tactic.

“We are getting out there, we are engaging with the community, and I don’t mean just the bad members of the community, we are engaging with the whole community and as a result of that, we are getting some positive results,” Acting Supt. Stephens said.

“At times, whilst you’re engaging with them you might identify who they are and there might be justifications for doing searches or things like that in which cases then yes, being out there and engaging is going to result in an increase in that area, but also proactive operations like Strike Force Pinnacle that ran in Wellington, gives us intelligence into the operations and means and ends and patterns and locations, and we then use and develop that intelligence to help us work smarter.”

By LYDIA PEDRANA MICE have been causing damage to local sheds and houses, according to Central West Local Land Services (LLS).

They have also warned that they may be causing havoc to crop, causing harm to grain heads, digging up sown seeds and eating germinating crops.

LLS suggests farms get a read on mice numbers by putting out monitoring cards which can be made from 10mm grid paper.

Cut 10cm by 10cm squares and soak or spray the paper in canola oil.

Place 10 cards 10 metres apart in the crop, using fencing wire to hold them down.

Put the cards out late afternoon and collection early in the morning.

If 10 to 15 per cent or more of the card is taken, there may be enough mice to cause a problem and baiting may need to be considered.

Rural practitioners key to fixing healthcare system

By LYDIA PEDRANA COUNTRY practitioners must be directly involved in the inquiry into the NSW hospital system, according to the Rural Doctors Association of Australia (RDAA).

The organisation also believes the probe should focus on improving rural hospital infrastructure, the need to recruit more rural generalist doctors and implementing the same standard of robust clinical governance across all NSW hospitals, no matter the location.

RDAA President Dr John Hall urged the government to work closely with clinicians who have long-term experience on the ground, rather than relying on the opinions of their city counterparts who are far removed from the happenings inside rural and regional hospitals.

“We are deeply concerned that the inquiry will rely on advice

from city-based sub-specialists who may never have worked in rural settings and have no practical knowledge about the challenge of providing rural health

care,” Dr Hall said.

“It must be led by clinicians who have extensive experience in delivering services in to rural and remote communities, as they are the only ones who have a real understanding of the needs and limitations of rural hospitals.”

A NSW parliamentary inquiry into the state of healthcare in regional and rural areas was announced last month following a series of damning media reports about the poor standard of care patients received in country hospitals, including Dubbo Hospital.

The probe is set to examine access to services, recruitment challenges, wait times, patient outcomes and experiences, and the quality of care provided.

Although stories of adverse patient outcomes triggered the inquiry, Dr Hall said this is not the “norm” in the rural health system.

“Multiple studies have shown that rural hospitals are some

of the safest settings to receive care, and while adverse outcomes should be an important part of the inquiry, they must not be the only element,” he said.

“Good clinical governance at all hospitals – and better investment in rural hospital infrastructure and the rural health workforce – are the big-ticket items that will drive the best possible outcomes for rural NSW patients.”

Additionally, Dr Hall said doctors in rural NSW hospitals should be genuinely supported and trusted to have influence over management decisions including the services offered with a hospital, the clinical processes and systems followed, and the recruitment and retention of clinical staff.

“At the moment, this is rarely, if ever, the case.”

Submissions from the community and stakeholders can be made to the inquiry committee until December 13, 2020.

DUBBO TOURISM

Dubbo reaps regional travel rewards

By LYDIA PEDRANA VISITORS flocked to the Dubbo region over the October long weekend and local tourism operators have revelled in the welcome momentum.

A standout attraction was the Old Dubbo Gaol (ODG) which welcomed a total of 2,086 people across Saturday, Sunday and Monday.

ODG manager Julie Webster said they saw 797 visitors on just one day.

“Old Dubbo Gaol was excited to open the doors in our partly rejuvenated Gaol to the busy holiday crowds,” she told Dubbo Photo News.

“So much positivity around with perfect weather and happy smiling faces truly enjoying the region.”

The Royal Flying Doctors Service Visitor Experience had 1,204 enjoy its offering over the three days, helping the facility hit it’s 20,000th visitor on Tuesday after less than 10 months in operation.

RFDS director of tourism John Larkin was thrilled with the influx of visitors, particularly after a forced shutdown due to COVID-19 earlier in the year.

“After being closed for two and a half months, we’ve come back with a wet sail, tourism out here generally speaking has been fantastic,” he said.

“We’ve enjoyed great support from travellers and the touring

public.”

Mr Larkin said aside from locals, most patrons had travelled from Sydney, the Central Coast, Newcastle and the Hunter Valley.

Meanwhile, newly reopened Westview Drive-in welcomed 2149 people through its gates over the three days (1006 from out of town), with two events completely sold out.

The Dubbo Regional Council’s Chalk Walk initiative was also a hit with families admiring Zac Craig and Anton Pulvirentiu’s 3D chalk art which was featured at different locations around town.

Unsurprisingly, Taronga Western Plains Zoo’s (TWPZ) accommodation has been fully booked the whole school holidays, and numbers were up over the long

weekend too.

“We had a very positive result over the October long weekend with visitation consistently high across the three days,” said TWPZ director Steve Hinks.

“The warm weather saw lots of guests exploring the Zoo by bike and also taking advantage of the water play area at the new Waterhole precinct.”

Records broken as Dubbo Region is booked out for holidays

DUBBO Regional Council’s (DRC) reported during the first week of school holidays, the Old Dubbo Gaol recorded its second-highest number of visitors in a single day, with nearly 700 people coming through the gates on the third day of school holidays.

More than 600 people were visiting the facility every day, making it the busiest school holiday period on record. Staff are now preparing for an even busier long weekend.

Dubbo Regional Council’s (DRC’s) Visitor Information Centre was also inundated with requests and calls from visitors looking for accommodation, when everything was seemingly booked out.

Mayor of the Dubbo Region, Councillor Ben Shields, has welcomed the news that so many people chose the region to holiday, and says even if people have missed out in Dubbo, there are surrounding towns and villages that can help out.

“While we have been able to help some people find a room or campsite in Dubbo or Wellington, our Visitor Information Centre has had to send some people to Peak Hill, Narromine, and Gilgandra to stay, because everything else is full!”

Councillor Shields said.

IN BRIEF

Local farmer selected for one-onone mentor program

By LYDIA PEDRANA YOUNG Narromine farmer, Billy Browning, has been handpicked to take part in an individual coaching program, run by the NSW Department of Primary Industries (DPI).

The 10-month Young Farmer Business Program provides oneon-one business coaching with professional business coach, Richard Groom, to help individuals expand their business aspirations and reach their goals.

Mr Browning, who runs his family’s irrigated, broad acre cropping farm just outside of Narromine, said he hopes the coaching program helps him grow as an individual while propelling the business forward.

“As a business, we want to make sure we are heading in the right direction, we want to be challenged and asked the questions we sometimes forget or are scared to ask ourselves,” Mr Browning said.

CULTURE ON THE MAP

New tool for discovering art and culture

By LYDIA PEDRANA A SET of interactive, online maps that pinpoints arts and cultural experiences in the Central West launched this week, but Dubbo’s creative offerings are not included.

Designed to help people explore their own backyard, there are 400-plus gems featured on the maps including public art, museums, craft shops, galleries, heritage sites, trails and artist studios.

Housed online at www.centralnsw.com, users can search the curated list of sites by category or location.

Arts OutWest communications officer, Maryanne Jacques, explained why the $20,000 initiative only covers the Bathurst, Blayney, Cabonne, Cowra, Forbes, Lachlan, Lithgow, Oberon, Orange, Parkes and Weddin council regions.

“At this stage the Culture Maps project covers the 11 Council areas serviced by Arts OutWest, the Central NSW Joint Organisation of Councils and Regional Development Australia (RDA) Central West,” she told Dubbo Photo News.

“It has been an excellent collaboration between these peak bod-

ies supported by and the tourism teams at each local council in that network.

“We do think it’s an excellent resource that could be replicated in other parts of the state.”

Alicia Rodriguez Leggett, executive director of Orana Arts, the Dubbo equivalent of Arts OutWest, said they would require significant support to create a similar concept for the Dubbo region.

“These tourist directories do require considerable resources to remain relevant and unless it has a broader partnership as the Central NSW presents, then it’s beyond the capability of Orana Arts to maintain it,” Ms Rodriguez Leggett explained.

“As far as I know Dubbo Regional Council is not a member of any joint organisation which would be the starting point for an initiative such as this.”

Meanwhile, RDA Orana said they would “definitely” back the creation of an interactive arts and culture map for Dubbo and its surrounds.

“Supporting the creation of a cultural map of the Orana region is definitely something that we

would love to be part of as a supporter of Orana Arts,” RDA Orana director of regional development Megan Dixon said.

“There is a rich cultural heritage in this area and some amazing artisans, and this would provide a fabulous platform to showcase these endeavours.”

And while it may not be a fancy map at this stage, Orana Arts is close to revealing a series of new initiatives to support local arts

and artists.

“Orana Arts is working to fill the gaps in the creative sector across the region and further afield within regional NSW, with some exciting projects that will allow artists to tap into new markets and opportunities,” she said.

“We are in the final stages to present real pathways for a diverse cross-section of regional creative artists to achieve a career in the arts.”

SAFETY IMPROVEMENTS FUNDING

Boothenba Road gets greenlight for upgrade

By LYDIA PEDRANA BOOTHENBA Road will receive a “much-needed” $2 million boost to improve its safety and efficiency.

The upgrade will focus on the intersection near Dubbo Regional Livestock Markets, improving truck access to the facility, as well as widening and realigning the road to make it better suited for heavy vehicles.

In making the announcement this week, Federal Member for Parkes Mark Coulton said the funds will help fast-track the high-priority infrastructure project.

“Upgrading this key intersection will generate eco-

nomic benefits through productivity gains for heavy vehicles accessing the livestock markets. It will also offer safety benefits through the realignment and widening of this intersection and road corridor,” he said.

“Every single local job we support in this region by investing in infrastructure projects means safer journeys, reliable work on the books for local construction businesses and more cash flowing through local communities.”

With construction slated to begin early next year, the Boothenba Road facelift will be funded under Round 7 of the Heavy Vehicle Safety and Productive Program.

Trust the process

By NATALIE LEWIS IN just 17 months, Wellington’s Jackie Tierney has progressed from amateur artist to a shared space where she is selling her prints and paintings.

The local mum started art classes in Dubbo during 2019 and became enthralled by the creative process.

“I had four weeks off work at WACHS and bought a canvas to do a collage,” she explained.

Mrs Tierney started experimenting with colour and hasn’t looked back. She mainly uses acrylics but has also sampled working with inks.

“I’ve just fallen in love with it,” she said. “I was going twice a week to classes. Then we had to close down due to COVID-19. But I’ve met some beautiful people along the way.”

If anyone had told her that she’d be creating artworks to give to friends and selling pictures to happy customers, Mrs Tierney would never have believed it.

“I’ve always had a creative streak for home wares and things like that.

“But I still have trouble calling myself an artist. I still have a lot more to learn and more confidence to glean. I just love the finished result.”

The recipients of Mrs Tierney’s paintings obviously agree. She was commissioned by local business owner Fiona Adams to create artworks for the Grand Hotel and received the People’s Choice Fine Arts prize at the Wellington Art and Sculpture exhibition for her work Dudley and Maisie.

Mrs Tierney has also created a painting of Flinders St Railway

Station for her son Jaydam living in London and another for her son Darcy for his 21st birthday which features a Kombi van.

She describes the feeling of creating something special for her children as ‘my biggest thrill.’

“I’m absolutely loving it,” Mrs Tierney said. I love the process.

It’s just mind-blowing.”

Her husband Andrew is her biggest fan and critic.

“He tells me how it is,” Mrs Tierney laughs. “And the kids – they love it.”

Mrs Tierney has now joined a creative collective in a pop-up shop called Creative Fusion in Dubbo. Situated in Talbragar St, the shop will be open on weekends until Christmas.

The idea was the brainchild of Mrs Tierney’s art teacher and mentor Laura Dunkley and features the work of 20 artisans from across the region.

“There is a lot of good artists there so it’s very exciting,” Mrs Jackie Tierney doing what she loves, painting. PHOTO: CONTRIBUTED Tierney said.

“The pop-up shop was Laura’s brainstorm to get it off the ground. She is a very good artist and she’s been involved in art since she was small. She’s taught me everything that I know. And she’s got that drive to get it going.”

To promote her work, Mrs Tierney has started social media pages in the name of Artistic Press and is working on a website in the future. She has no desire to stop creating art and is looking forward to more creative exploration.

“While I’m enjoying what I’m doing, I’ll keep going. My mantra is trust the process.

“If I can go home and paint, I will.”

The pictures created for her sons Jaydam and Darcy: Flinders St Railway Station and Ultimate Dream.

Communities receive grant funding

By NATALIE LEWIS AFTER raising more than $1 million for drought-affected farmers in the past two years, the Geurie Lions Club has been rewarded for its efforts with a grant from the Federal Government.

The $4500 funding was provided as part of the Federal Government’s Volunteer Grants Program and will be used to replace the kitchen cupboards in their catering van. “It’s the first step in trying to bring our catering van up to scratch,� Geurie Lion Anne Jones said. “It allows us to continue to fundraise for any future disasters that may affect our communities.�

The van has been used for many events over the years, and most recently to provide meals for farmers and families who have suffered from the impacts of drought and bushfires. “Our Lions District 201N4 Drought Relief Project has helped local families and others across the state, including in communities such as Coonabarabran, Warren, Narromine, Parkes, Bogan Gate, Wellington, Dubbo, Cobar and Nyngan,� Ms Jones said.

Calare MP Andrew Gee congratulated members of the Geurie Lions Club for their ongoing hard work in the community. “The Geurie Lions Club have done an enormous

amount for the local community over the years,� he said. “This funding is crucial to enabling the local Lions members to continue their vital work in our communities. “They are a shining example of the tremendous impact our volunteer organisations can have on getting communities through tough times.�

Mr Gee described Ms Jones as a local legend. “She has been the driving force behind the Lions District 201N4 Drought Relief Project. Since July 2018, this project has provided $1,075,359 worth of donated goods which supported 1917 families and 5734 community members.�

The Volunteer Grants program aims to support the

efforts of volunteers and encourage and increase participation in volunteering.

The grants provide small amounts of money that organisations and community groups can use to help their volunteers.

While he was in the area, Mr Gee also announced $6000 for the Gollan Public Hall as part of Round 5 of the Stronger Communities Program, making it more accessible and functional.

The funding has gone towards the installation of concrete pathways to allow wheelchair access, upgrades to the outdoor concrete entertaining area and towards weather-proofing a container that has been used as the hall’s storage shed.

QUOTA

End of an era

By NATALIE LEWIS THERE’S a sense of camaraderie among the members of the Quota Club of Wellington that’s hard to find elsewhere in modern society.

As the ladies look over a collection of scrapbooks containing yellowed news clippings and faded photographs, the room fills with their chatter and laughter reflecting on 69 years of the club’s presence in the town.

Sadly, the service club has now officially disbanded as a result of the dissolution of Quota International on September 30.

Despite the permanency of that closure, nothing can change their tightknit fellowship that will live on through regular social gatherings.

“We are still going to have social meetings, morning tea or lunch every fortnight,” member Marj Coon explains.

“It will keep the momentum going.”

The non-profit charitable organisation originally began in the United States but has had a meaningful place in Wellington’s history.

“Quota was started by Wanda Frey Joiner in Buffalo, New York after the first world war,” longterm member Margherita Reinhard said.

In Australia, it is believed that Quota started in Sydney between 1930 and 1933 and was established locally in 1951 to assist the community. The first Wellington president was Bonnie Bruderlin.

“There were a lot of war widows and children that needed help, so the founder decided to form a group and help them,” Mrs Reinhard said.

In the beginning, there were quite a lot of regulations and membership was strictly for women. This was relaxed in later years allowing men to join.

Mrs Reinhard pointed out that at that time, women had to be in business, and they contributed their own money in the organisation’s initial stages.

Classifications for membership

included automotive, education, health and retail.

“When I joined the club, you had to be nominated and you had to make sure you had a classification,” she said.

“There were 20 charter members which included the hospital matron, the school headmistress, representatives of the automotive industry, bookshop owners, the newspaper office, bakery and corner shop. If you had a shop, you were entitled to be a member.

“You could only have two of each classification and if you missed four meetings, you were out.”

Wellington Quota was part of the 26th District in those days, which changed to Region 12.

Meetings were held in the Golden Key and Bills Cafe.

Mrs Reinhard said a lot of the clubs had already folded prior to the international dissolution.

“They were no longer viable,” she said.

“A lot of the members I first joined with are no longer around.”

On September 22, Mrs Reinhard marked 60 years of membership and says her enjoyment came from ‘friendships and doing charitable works.’

She recalls being involved in many events over the years and was club president in 1974 to 75.

“Our largest membership was 23,” she said.

“When I was president, you couldn’t spend money on administration. All the service dollars had

DUBBO PHOTO NEWS/COLIN ROUSE

to go back to the community.”

Talk turns to skits, concerts, fashion parades and Christmas stalls all held to raise money for the community with a strong emphasis on enhancing education and benefiting those who were disadvantaged.

“We were busy girls,” Mrs Reinhard said.

“We did a variety of things,” treasurer Margaret Grasnick adds.

She was president four times and has also held the position of Lieutenant Governor.

For Mrs Grasnick, being part of Quota inspired personal growth and she has remained a member for 28 years.

“The fellowship and the experience inspired my confidence,” she said.

“And what I have valued is the friendship.”

Other Wellington Lieutenant Governors (later known as a Regional Director) were Louie Masters and Jeune Gersbach.

As the chapter closes, this small group will have fond recollections

How Quota International of Wellington has helped the town:  helping mothers, children and the elderly  Initiated Meals on Wheels  helping people with hearing difficulties  International student sponsorship including the first female doctor in India  annual art exhibition  purchased a television for Hermitage Hill when it was an aged care facility  International Women’s Day concert featuring local artists with proceeds to the Orana Support Service

of all that Quota has achieved in Wellington and an era that has ended in terms of service to the community.

“There’s a certain satisfaction about achieving something and helping raise money for the local community,” secretary Leonie Parker Lee said.

“It was about doing something worthwhile,” president Frances Cookson said.

“It’s a real community thing.

Boys in the bush

Nathan Riley (pictured right) says teaching young Koori boys about culture and self-respect is incredibly rewarding, and the proper way to create community harmony and wellbeing. PHOTO: CONTRIBUTED

By JOHN RYAN

THOUSANDS of cars drive past I-CAN Growing Futures Nursery on Cobra Street every day but very few people understand the magic that’s happening inside the fence, according to Nathan Riley.

Nathan heads up the mentoring arm run by Pathways Together Aboriginal Corporation and he says communities can only be strengthened, law and order, drug and alcohol issues averted, by working with young boys to build resilience while they’re still young.

This holidays, 10 of the program’s Year 5/6 boys headed bush to the camp at Balladoran and spent some time out in the shearing sheds, before heading out in the national parks around the district, visiting a number of significant sites and listening and learning from Uncle Ralph Naden over two days.

“The boys cooked up a storm over the two days and one of the highlights for everyone was camping out under the stars,” Mr Riley told Dubbo Photo News.

During the school term he’s kept busy, heavily mentoring 26 students.

“I’m pretty much on the ground

five days a week up at Dubbo South Primary School running our program where I work with 26 Koori kids, we’ve got 13 in Years 3/4 and 13 in Years 5/6.”

While the school pays for the time Nathan spends up there, the I-CAN nursery funds everything else as a not-for-profit.

The holiday camps and everything they do for the kids out of school time, the cultural excursions, the overnight camps, is thanks to the nursery income, and Nathan Riley said it’s worth every cent.

“It empowers them – nowadays a lot of kids don’t get shown and don’t get taught simple things likes going out in the bush, how to track an animal or how to identify scar trees or grinding grooves or different artefacts,” he said.

“I’m not a cultural expert but I like to spend time with older people, with the Elders and just pick up little things along the way and that’s why on all these excursions and camps I like to go to places like Balladoran and be out there and watch my little boys learn from Uncle Ralph, but also I’m learning as well.

“For them, you can see, they know that’s a part of their identity and it’s something that they now

know and they can take back, so they go home and they’re telling their nans and pops, aunties and uncles, mums and dads, and tell their little brothers and sisters what they’ve been out doing.”

He said he’s lucky to have had outdoor and cultural experiences from his dad, Rob, who he describes as a strong, proud Aboriginal person, and says he’s shared that with him in different ways, which makes him want to help these students in the same way.

“I feel like to me these boys are just like my own brothers, I spend so much time with them and I want them to be around good people like my old man, like Uncle Ralph, different people that I trust and work with in the community,” he said.

“When they’re out bush, they’re switched on, best kids, well-mannered, so much respect obviously for the land, I think it’s just something that empowers them and it’s something that they can identify with, their identities as Aboriginal people.”

Mr Riley is critical of the overthought, over-bureaucratised short-termism, so prevalent when it comes to government departments and the programs okayed by well-paid professionals from

capital cities who’ve rarely, if ever, worked at the coal face.

He said it’s important to break the cycle of negativity for kids from disadvantaged backgrounds when they’re young, to show them there’s a positivity to life and sort things out before they need to go to rehab or before they come up against the criminal justice system.

“It’s like all these different things the governments do is putting a band-aid on problems they can see, chuck this program in, use this band-aid, but why not prevent those problems in the first place,” Mr Riley said.

“For these little fellas to have a taste of what it’s like to be running around healthy and happy out in the bush – when you go out there you leave your problems back in town so they get a little taste.

“I don’t think I do anything pretty amazing but I do show up, I’m there all the time for them and I think for them to experience that,

they get to know I’m there to listen to them and engage with them so they know there’s someone who really cares for them, so they have a sense there’s someone they can rely on.

He said many people end up turning to alcohol and drugs not because they want to party, but because they want to submerge their consciousness and escape the despair that is their daily reality.

“If these boys have that person they can rely on and speak about their problems with, it’s critical.

“I always tell the boys, our number one job, whether we’re in school or out in the bush, is to look after one another, so if they’ve got that as young fellas where they can open up to each other and know that they can rely on other people and not have to carry all their own problems, I think it gives them a better shot at working through all the different things we have to work through as we get older.”

WATER WOES

Water waves of silence

By YVETTE AUBUSSON-FOLEY NSW WATER minister Melinda Pavey has spent plenty of time criticising everyone but her own party in recent months over state water allocation and shortages issues, but now she’s been asked questions, she’s laying low.

After widespread claims the Nationals have failed when it comes to water security and transparency of allocations and transfers, Dubbo Photo News put the following questions to her: 1) Greens MLC Kate Faehrmann has called on you as water minister to direct irrigators holding large amounts of overland flow water in their dams, which would otherwise have run into the rivers, to put that water back into the river systems – how do you respond?

2) Is it the right of the people in NSW to have public ownership of this water which would have naturally flowed into the river systems, or should this water be the private property of large farmers and corporate farming interests?

3) How humiliating was it to have the upper house disallow your floodplain strategy?

At the time of going to print, minister Pavey had not replied to our questions.

Greens MLC Kate Faehrmann called on minister Pavey to direct irrigators holding back massive amounts of water in private storag-

es as a result of the floods in February, in the northern part of the Murray-Darling Basin (MDB) to send enough downstream to restore water to Lake Menindee and the Lower Darling.

Ms Faehrmann says Lake Menindee is an essential nursery for native fish like the golden perch and plays a vital role for the ecosystem of the entire basin, while the Baarkindji people’s identity and culture comes from the Baaka-River itself.

“Without water in our rivers and wetlands not only fish die, our communities and cultural heritage dies too,” Ms Faehrmann said.

“In one week, we’ve seen the Menindee Lakes Savings Project and the legalisation of floodplain harvesting taken off the table. I know this will bring great joy to the people of Menindee and the Lower Darling – the so-called ‘Water Savings Project’ was the Government's next step in its plan to maintain over-extractions in the Northern Basin, including through legalising current levels of floodplain take.

“The NSW Parliament sent a strong message this week to the water minister to restore water to the lower Darling-Baaka River and Lake Menindee. It’s clear that aside from a select few up north, the people of NSW desperately want this too and won’t stop campaigning until it’s done.”

Melinda Pavey is also under fire from a damning Auditor-General’s report that the state opposition claims exposed years of inaction, broken promises and mismanagement on water policy which resulted in drought-stricken towns almost running out of water.

Shadow Minister for Water Clayton Barr said the report found the Department of Planning, Industry and Environment has not effectively supported or overseen town water infrastructure planning in regional NSW since at least 2014 and that the state government lacked a strategic, evidence-based approach to target investments in town water infrastructure “This Government has put new roads, tunnels and stadiums in Sydney ahead of the needs of rural and regional NSW. It failed to take action on important commitments it made on water supply and the impact on communities has been absolutely devastating,” Mr Barr said.

“Dozens of communities were on the brink of running out of water. Even larger regional cities like Tamworth, Armidale, Dubbo and Bathurst came perilously close to a ‘day zero’ in which they would have been unable to supply water to their communities and may have eventually required evacuation.

“We can’t let this happen again.

Just because rain has arrived in some parts of the state doesn’t

mean the problem is solved. The Government needs to be proactive, not reactive when it comes to water security.”

Now the state government is calling on the community to have a say on the first Regional Water Strategy for the Macquarie-Castlereagh region.

Dubbo MP Dugald Saunders said this consultation period is an opportunity for residents, farmers, businesses and councils to have their say on how water is managed across the two regions in the future to improve water security, resilience and reliability.

“This strategy is about ensuring water security for the region over the next 20 to 40 years to support our local economy, communities and environment and who better to help us refine this than the people who live and work here,” he said.

Mr Saunders stuck to the Nationals’ position that recent water shortages were due to the long-running drought rather than the mismanagement and over-allocation of scarce water resources.

“The Macquarie-Castlereagh region has always had a variable climate but is especially vulnerable to drought,” Mr Saunders said.

“The ongoing dry periods since 2000 have placed great stress on river habitats and ecosystems in many parts of the Macquarie-Castlereagh valley and on our towns and farmers.”

A live webinar will take place on Wednesday, October 14, from 10am to 12noon.

OPINION & ANALYSIS

THE TOONS’ VIEWS

New laws needed for tobacco control, Cancer Council says The Editor, You may have seen the release of new research from Cancer Council NSW and the University of Sydney revealing the covert tobacco industry marketing tactics, exposed by former employees of big tobacco companies. We want to protect communities across NSW by explaining what this means and what we hope to see change.

Our research exposes the variety of marketing strategies that tobacco companies are continuing to use in Australia, despite tobacco advertising restrictions. They’re incentivising retailers with cash payments and taking staff on all-expenses-paid international trips, including to sports events such as the World Cup, all to drive tobacco sales.

It probably comes as no surprise that direct advertising of tobacco to consumers has long been banned, however we’ve seen from this study that tobacco companies are spending their marketing budget on retailers now that they are the only remaining avenue to reach consumers directly.

With a recent spike in people seeking information and support to quit smoking during the COVID-19 pandemic, we want to ensure that people attempting to quit aren’t being undermined by these covert tobacco company marketing tactics. That’s why we are calling for Australian laws to be strengthened to stop all marketing of tobacco products and to prevent tobacco companies from using these tactics.

Australia is considered to be a glob-

al leader in tobacco control, and we want to assure our communities that we will continue to do everything we can to prevent the 5300 deaths and 46,000 hospitalisations every year in NSW. For advice or support on how to quit smoking call the Quitline on 13 78 48.

Judgement day: This American election matters Greg Smart ❚ OPINION THE American election next month matters not only to Americans, but to the rest of the world as well. It will determine how we view America and how influential they will be for generations to come.

America has taken the concept of Manifest Destiny – a mid-19th Century imperialist belief the United States was destined to expand its dominion across North America spreading democracy and capitalism – to market itself as the paragon of democracy and freedom to the point of being the self-ascribed leader of the Free World.

How the mighty has fallen.

Riven by social inequality and systemic racism, poisoned by religious bigotry and crony capitalism, America self-harmed its way into abrogating its position as leader of the free world.

Then Donald Trump ran for the Presidency.

Ever the grifter, Trump’s candidacy for President was a PR stunt framing him as an outsider who

would shake up Washington and ‘drain the swamp’.

But Trump was the swamp. For decades, the American media fawned over Trump, stroked his ego and inflated his self-image to the point he and the gullible public believed he was the pinnacle of the American Dream.

The notion of Trump in the White House helped an ailing media sell column inches and caused social media to melt down. His ‘base’ of disaffected working class voters was sucked in by his claims he was one of them who had their best interests at heart.

Trump’s behaviour during the 2016 election campaign should have disqualified him from high office. Yet the misogyny, xenophobia, lying and mockery of the disabled was not enough to stifle the naked ambition of both the Republican Party and Trump’s base in the hyper-partisan post-Manifest Destiny Land of the Free.

When these behaviours were used to install Trump in the White House, there was no reason to believe that Trump’s first term in office would be anything other than a chaotic and narcissistic series of PR stunts, with assaults on truth, decency and statesmanship.

There was certainly no reason to

believe Trump had any capacity to deal with a global pandemic.

He failed to take the COVID-19 virus seriously and downplayed its effects at every opportunity.

His vainglorious urge to project a tough guy image led him to ignore scientific advice, even as the death toll passed 100,000. America’s dysfunctional for-profit health system strained under the weight of a highly virulent virus, White House chaos and attacks on ‘socialised medicine’.

Trump continued to downplay the threat of COVID-19; even when the death toll passed 200,000, he was still denigrating mask wearing, spruiking discredited experimental treatments and holding campaign rallies which ignored social distancing protocols. And playing golf every other day.

The death of Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsberg received

Trump’s full attention, however.

Her death gave Trump and the Republicans the chance to appoint a conservative judge to the Supreme Court. They took the chance with relish, jettisoning the tradition of not making such appointments in the lead up to an election – a ‘tradition’ the Republicans invented in the final year of Obama’s presidency.

The garden party to nominate replacement Supreme Court Justice Amy Coney Barrett now appears to be a virus super spreading event.

Republican luminaries mingled mask free, shook hands, hugged and kissed the virus amongst the Trump devotees. Trump was likely already infected prior to this event, yet this was no impediment to the stage-managed conservative lovefest going ahead.

Given their reckless disregard for the severity of COVID-19, it should come as no surprise that Trump and his inner circle tested positive for the virus. The calls for Americans to be sympathetic and send ‘thoughts and prayers’ must be seen in the context of a sociopath who only cares for himself.

Ordinary Americans do not get to receive the best no-expensespared medical treatment in a private suite. Those of us with family

in America ponder every day the threat to their health exacerbated by an incompetent President.

And for Trump to take joy rides in a presidential motorcade around the hospital in a desperate ‘Dear Leader’ PR stunt really shows the distain with which he treats the office.

Americans must wake up to the real Trump; his only interest is self-interest.

Through Trump’s own actions, he has cemented the image of his presidency as one rife with corruption, cronyism and nepotism. His toxic divisiveness and outright lies have nurtured a truth-free zone; the consequence being a White House with zero credibility.

This is where America finds itself in the lead up to what could be classed as the most important election ever.

November 3 is judgement day.

It will test the common sense and decency of Americans, to stand up and reject the spin of a President who is unfit for office.

The world will rightly judge America on the outcome of the election, and waits to see if America can halt its self-destruction. z Greg Smart lives and works in Dubbo, and is a keen observer of current affairs.

DUBBO Regional Council (DRC) has taken a top honour after being awarded Skillset’s 2020 Large Host of the Year, in recognition for the work done by Council in hosting apprentices and trainees.

“Our apprentices and trainees can be found in a number of our business areas working in a number of professional areas, such as: horticulture (parks and gardens, and sports turf management), early childhood education and care, automotive, and civil construction,” DRC’s chief executive officer Michael McMahon said.

DRC currently hosts 19 apprentices and trainees across a number of business areas within Council.

Council is also always delighted to hear about the success stories of those who undertook their apprenticeships and traineeships with DRC and is even more delighted if those individuals gain fulltime employment with Council.

One recent Skillset graduate, Izaiah Richards, applied for a full-time position with DRC’s Fleet and Depot Services. After successfully going through the merit-based process, Izaiah won the position with the qualified mechanic now working at DRC’s Hawthorn Street Depot.

“Council’s nationally play a significant role in the training and development of young people and those undertaking training in the trades,” said Mr McMahon.

It’s amazing how the little things can brighten up the pervading gloom of 2020.

Dani is our very clever designer at Dubbo Photo News and it seems her mum is just as clever at designing happy, and tasty, cupcakes.

Thanks Dani’s mum, it was the best thing to happen in the office this past week.

In fact the only happier moment in recent days was the Brisbane Broncos winning a well-deserved and much-delayed wooden spoon.

Below: Peter Woodward is always on the lookout for seasonal Paparazzi photos and he took this great shot of a blooming Hippeastrum in his front yard last week.

“It’s the first time it has flowered for a couple of years,” he told Paparazzi – great to see spring springing great things after years of drought.

Above: Karen Kneale took advantage of some great spring weather to drive a friend up to scone rock, one of the outstanding natural landmarks on the Newell Highway between Dubbo and Tomingley.

“Beautiful day with a beautiful view,” she said.

Bek lost her heart when Jamie lobbed

By GEOFF MANN

Social media was the game-breaker for Bek Mann.

“Dad, I’ll never meet someone to grow old with like you and mum.

“Yes you will. He’s out there just waiting to be found.”

The one time my tip came true.

Bek was smitten from the first time she met Jamie Lobb. Their relationship flourished over the next six and a half years and on Friday, September 25, Bek and Jamie exchanged their vows of marriage at St Brigids.

The happy couple overcame the challenges of COVID to include nephews Lachie and Eddie Mann and her brother Joe and sister-in-law Victoria via live stream. Lachie carried the ring on a special cushion along a special turf “aisle” in the local park.

The ceremony was conducted

by Fr Paul Devitt who Bek had promised “would marry her one day”.

Mrs Lobb returned to her work as a speech pathologist in the Intensive Care Unit at Royal North Shore; Jamie, from the Central Coast, back to his work as an Environmental Engineer in the city.

After a week at Byron Bay the newlyweds lobbed home to Waverton.

WORDS OF WISDOM • with Doug Mckay Interview by SOPHIA ROUSE Is age just a number? It’s an annoyance. I try not to think about age too much but it’s important to have things that you’re interested in doing. You have to have some reason to get up in the morning. I retired five years ago for about a month or so and hated it because I wasn’t doing anything except going to the shops or the post office and there was nothing to look forward to.

I have lots of things to do. I work two days a week as a solicitor, I have a part time statutory position as Chairman of the Cobar Water Board, I’m also involved with the National Party on the Parkes Electorate Council and I belong to the Car Club in Dubbo and Trangie.

I play a bit of golf and I have a lot of friends here.

What did you get up to growing up?

We grew up on a property between Warren and Trangie. We lived in a nice place on the creek and they were the good years when the creeks were always full. Basically, we had to amuse ourselves because we didn’t go to town very often. We did what was known as Correspondence School now called Distance Education.

We had a few governesses but not for very long so my mother decided she would teach us, which she did very well. We had a very remote up bringing.

I never sat in front of a black board until I went away to school. It was a bit hard going to boarding school. It was a major adjustment. I was only 10 when I went away. I started at a little prep school called All Hallows in Bathurst that was run by nuns who I didn’t like.

They weren’t abusive but I just didn’t get on with them. After that I went away to Sydney to Riverview and that was good, the longer I was there the more I enjoyed it. You were old enough

to join the rowing club and they were good times. I met a lot of city boys that some are still my friends today.

After school I got a Commonwealth Scholarship which would have sent me to University and paid for all tuition, but my parents were old fashioned and believed there was only one way of life and that was to stay on the property.

I always had an interest in Law. Thirteen years after leaving school, I was married and had two children and I decided I would go and study law. We moved to Sydney and between my wife Fitz and I we had five jobs. I worked for a law firm in the city, I studied at night, she worked for a real estate agent, she ran the rental books on the weekend, I had a rubbish carting business on the weekend and she was a permanent baby sitter for a lady, so we were pretty busy.

Then we came back to Warren and I was a lawyer there for 40 years. We had Lovett and Green Solicitors and also had a branch office in Bourke for 27 years which was very interesting.

Our office in Bourke was next to the doctor’s office and our doors were identical. A mother and daughter walked in one day, and the mum said, “we’ve come about the accident, show him!”

So, the daughter took her jeans down and I didn’t know what to do and then all of a sudden, the look of realisation came over the mother’s face and she said, “you are the doctor aren’t you?!”

I used to do a lot of court work originally, legal aid work in Warren, Nyngan, Cobar Bourke and Brewarrina which meant a lot of travelling. I also used to work as an independent children’s representative for DOCs. Because it was a long way away, I then got a pilot licence. I had a plane at home, and I used to fly out to Bourke so that was another interest

for a few years.

I also acted for the major irrigation schemes in the Macquarie Valley on the modernisation programs that they did over the last 15 years. That was a major part of my practise.

My wife always maintained that you had to have good holiday if you were to work efficiently. She made sure that I took time off from work. She would say “come on, you’ve got to put a pencil line through your diary for two weeks” and then we would decide where we’d go.

For many years we’ve always had really good holidays until COVID-19 came along. We’ve managed to go to Europe or Asia at least once a year. We’re hoping that the travel restrictions are relaxed so we can go somewhere again!

What was the naughtiest thing you did in your teens or childhood?

I didn’t do anything terribly naughty actually! I can remember I use to shoot birds, but I shot a Lousy Jack one day and I looked at him and thought, “that was a very stupid thing to do”. He didn’t deserve that; he wasn’t doing any harm. So, I lost interest in shooting after that. I did a lot of silly things with cars when I got older.

What is your proudest accomplishment? I have three nice children that all have ten fingers and ten toes and six grandchildren that are the same! I’m proud of the fact that I got myself a law degree. That involved a lot of persistence because at that time I was working on the land and the only way which

I could study was I’d get the notes for the coming semester and all my text books and I would try and summarise the essential points to learn. I reduced them to notes and then put them on a portable tape recorder. I used to do a lot of tractor driving, 12-hour shifts and 10 of those hours I would have the recorder going. If we were doing stock work, I would put the tape recorder in my saddle bag. For a long time, my bedside alarm clock was set on 4:01am because it was between 4am and 7am I could concentrate without interruption.

I’ve had quite a varied life. I’ve experienced the horsing world, the car world, the aeroplane world the legal world, lots of different worlds which makes life much more interesting.

History repeating

By KEN SMITH TURNING 50 and one of only a few left in Australia, Dubbo Westview Drive In hosted the “Running on Empty” festival over the October long weekend and Dubbo Photo News captured some of the classics that made the journey to be part of the fun.

“Cinema Treasures” tells of the history.

The Westview Drive-In opened 8th October 1970 at the corner of Mitchell Highway and Westview Street. The opening film was Clint Eastwood in “Kelly’s Heroes”, with the drive-in able to accom-

modate 550 cars. The Westview Drive-In closed in June 1984, but continued as a summer only operation until 1987.

In January 2017 work began restoring the Westview Drive-In by the Dubbo City Youth Council to re-open it on the 7-9th April 2017 as part of the National Youth Week Program.

Dubbo Westview Drive in continues to entertain, with the warmer months presenting many opportunities to “go to the drive in”.

For the latest event information, please follow Dubbo Westview Drive in on Facebook.

SUDOKU EXTRA

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.

HARNESS RACING

Patrons back on track!

By GEOFF MANN Photos by MEL POCKNALL “IT was a perfect day for racing,” was how a smiling Graham Phipps described Sunday’s long weekend meeting.

“Patrons were allowed back on course for the first time in many months, so the bush telegraph was humming!”

Graham said about 60 harness racing fans complied with strict COVID protocols to enjoy their first ‘hit’ after a very long absence.

Locals were rewarded with Dubbo trainers leading home three winners.

“Our favourite butcher, Bluey Young prepared Reeceeharlow for driver Amy Rees, Michael Carroll had Our Von (Nathan Townsend) while the evergreen Lex Bramble harnessed up I’m Alrite who was driven to perfection by Brett Hutchings,” Graham said.

The Dubbo Harness Club’s next meeting will be the Gilgandra Cup and Windmill meeting on the 1st November.

“We plan to have the canteen and bar in operation under strict COVID protocols,” Graham assured.

“The Gilgandra fans love this special day and we’re expecting another fun-filled family event.”

By GEOFF MANN A BLISTERING start and dominant showing in the first 20 minutes from Westside Panthers FC (WPFC) helped them to another premiership.

The Panthers followed up a must-win last game of the regular season, to make the grand final.

“Big game experience was always on our side, as this was our third successive year playing finals football,” coach Luke Cameron explained.

“2020 marked back-to-back grand final victories for us. We’re ecstatic!

“The players, their parents and I are very happy with the whole season, despite it being a bit shorter than normal.”

Luke says the grand final was almost perfect.

“We came into the Under 17’s competition as a bit of a dark horse. We were in the top three all season with only a point between us. We dropped a game to RSL Jaguars midway and that was a bit of a wake-up call for the boys,” Luke said.

“To the lads’ credit, they responded positively the next time we faced them (RSL) and then our 7-1 win in the last round was the perfect spur going into the decider.”

Luke says all four grand finals this team has played have been against South Dubbo Wanderers.

“There is a little bit of crosstown rivalry between the two clubs. This year we had two draws against SDW Glory. The first game of the season was 1-1 and the second time we faced them, a few weeks ago, it was 2-2. This meant

In the U15 decider MUFC coached by Daniel Gilholme came back from 3-1 down in the second half against Westdside Panthers FC sending the game

into golden goal extra time. The side showed great determination by competing strongly in each vital challenge and came away with the win when James Cosier took possession just outside the 18 yard box to slot the game winning goal in the top right corner of the goal. Rueben Ross was named player of the final.

RUGBY LEAGUE

Panthers and Swans to fight out traditional Castlereagh Cup decider

By GEOFF MANN Photos by STEPHAN BASHAM GILGANDRA goes into their fifth straight grand final after a tough encounter against Coonamble while Dunedoo is looking for the Swans first title since 2014.

The Panthers edged out this Saturday’s visitors by a point in the second last round and are well aware of the firepower of the boys from Dunedoo.

Unheralded at the start of the season, the Swans have grown in confidence throughout and backed up an 18 point win against Cobar at home in the last round with a similarly impressive scoreline in last week’s semi at Cobar.

The long weekend has given all players the chance to recover for what is expected to be another brilliant season-ender.

Gilgandra won the League Cup in 2001, 2011, 2013 and three-peated between 201618. Their streak included a sensational come from behind win over Gulgong Terriers in 2018 before going down to the revitalised Coonabarabran Unicorns last year.

Dunedoo will look to former captain-coach Tom Yeo and his big match experience to calm the nerves of a young breed of Swans while the Panthers stocks have grown with the arrival of Western Rams captain Alex Ronayne. Yeo led the Swans to their second-ever premiership six years ago and the town is still celebrating their first win since 1967 so expect bumper-to-bumper traffic – appropriately socially distanced, of course, between the town with Winx and Hughie Bowman on Windmill city on Saturday.

Ronayne, the versatile former Bourke and Dubbo CYMS powerhouse has combined well with the Panther pups and will play a crucial role alongside multi-premiership winners Ash Hazelton, Jamie Towney and clever half Luke Ritchie.

The day kicks off with League Tag between reigning premiers Baradine Magpies and the fleet-footed Dunedoo

Swanettes and will be followed by a rematch between last year’s Youth League opponents, Cobar and Coonamble. The Roosters have been in exquisite touch but the excitement they attracted on grand final day in 2019 is something the Bears are keen to replicate.

The grand finals will be covered on 98.9 WARFM, Gilgandra and live streamed via the NSWRL website.

Panthers and Swans thrilled the Gilgandra crowd in their round match last month. A timely field goal just at half-time proved the game breaker.

Ducks flocked to the pond on the long weekend

By GEOFF MANN AS temperatures soared so did the Dubbo Ducks Vets right into the RSl Pool.

Dick Smith, Josh Bird, Robert Dickerson and John Pike were back where they belong, swimming laps and congregating on the deck – socially distanced, of course – in a return to the golden days.

CYMS winger and national swimming champion Jack Allen dived in for his first swim with the Ducks in time to see another of his Fishie’s clubmates, Tom Gray, claim the

October Monthly Medal after shaving.07 of his heat time to win the 50 metres freestyle.

Billy Greenwood also had a couple of good wins, taking out the 25 metre Backstroke and the 2 x 25 metre Breaststroke Brace Relay with Norm Bahr.

“Bill is making an impressive comeback after a few weeks in dry dock,” according to Publicity Officer Judy Walsh.

Judy says the best part of the day came in the butterfly challenge.

“There are many styles and our Ducks showed they’re

much better crawlers than fluent dolphin-like creatures in the water,” Judy laughed.

“It's always a great source of amusement, recommended to make everyone laugh. The final was a close finish between our determined veterans David Sparkes and Tony Wall.”

This Sunday’s Tom Flynn Iron Man Trophy will be rerun after a ‘timing malfunction’ last month.

Judy says the Ducks send their best wishes to the club’s resident timekeeper, Neil Cullen.

Club Dubbo Triples tournament

By GEOFF MANN OVER 40 bowlers embraced the inviting spring weather for the annual West Dubbo Triples.

It was a fantastic result ‘for the ages’ according to Bowls Manager Anthony Brown.

“The ladies’ team of Rhonda Yearby, Kath Ashby and Nancy Phillips, with their combined age of 218 years, once again highlighted that in anything is possible in this great game,” he smiled approvingly.

“This golden trio outstayed all opposition to win the event with five wins and a margin 15 shot and 37 ends The group survived a very close countback on ends after a gruelling seven games of singles, pairs and triples where each player engaged in each discipline and against different

opponents.”

According to those involved the organisers led by Club Dubbo Bowls’ Manager, Anthony Brown, did a great job.

Ant had great assistance from Club Dubbo staff – caterers, bar and greenkeepers while Ladies’ President, Ros Gilholme, did a marvellous job keeping the master board up to date.
