FORMER Dubbo Hospital chief executive officer of 18 years and Private Hospitals Association of NSW executive director, Brian Semmler, says changes in the hospital system in the past 60 years have done a disservice to rural and regional communities and given GPs no reason to relocate to places where they’re most needed. “Doctors have been driven out of a ridiculous system. The powers that be will argue, ‘Well, we can’t get GPs to go out to these places,’” Mr Semmler said. “Why can’t they get them? No job interest whatsoever. We all need satisfaction in our work, to use our skills that we were trained for. “They may have to introduce a system – a bit like education did – by saying, ‘Right, for the first three years, you’re going to go

out there. The system has paid a good percentage of your training, you repay the system, by going and working out there.’ They might want to stay,” he said. “How many times over the years have nurses come to the country, married someone and ended up staying here to start a family? “The powers that be might say you can’t tell people where to go, but you can – if that’s a condition they enter the university with, or that they come out of the university with,” Mr Semmler said. “It sounds dictatorial but we need a solution to this problem. We need to have politicians and bureaucrats with the intestinal fortitude to say, ‘This is it.’ “I think we have a wonderful system compared to other places, but we could do better.”

Dubbo Photo News December 17-23, 2020 MITCHELL RAY
BALLOONS SHINE RAY OF HOPE By JOHN RYAN WHEN Shellie Gray first saw the illness facing Mitchell Ray, she felt compelled to follow the story of then six-year-old and his family as they took every possible avenue in a bid to keep that little boy alive, and help him get well. So, when she heard he’d passed away surrounded, and loved, by his family, she wanted to do something to let them know their hometown was feeling a collective pain. Working in the office at Core Gas, she decided to ask people to make a donation for helium-filled balloons and fly them on their mailboxes as a sign they wanted to support the Ray family. “I wanted to raise $500 but Dubbo has supported this cause, so we’ve raised a lot more which is great,” Mrs Gray told Dubbo Photo News. They sure did – when the cash was banked it totalled $8057.55 and that’s not counting a donation of $5000 from her company headquarters – but more on that later. People making the donations told her they would get a lot of satisfaction from being able to do something so simple and yet which shows such strong support for a family which has suffered so much. “I think it touches everyone’s hearts so as people come in with their gold coins or a note, they feel like they’ve helped the family and flying the balloons shows the family that people are remembering Mitchell which is the most important part of this,” she said. “We’ve had a really, really great response from Core Gas (parent company) which is wonderful, the company has been very supportive, which is great. Territory manager Dave Rees

said the response to Shellie’s novel fundraising concept had been beyond overwhelming. “There’s not a day where someone hasn’t walked in here where I haven’t had a tear in my eye, from the little fellas walking in with their pocket money to people with 50s and 100s, dropping those donations in the box for this cause,” Mr Rees told Dubbo Photo News. “This support has touched my heart that people are so kind, we live in a great community, we live in a great town where if someone is knocked down people get there and help them, we help them back up and help them face what they have to.” Core Gas NSW regional manager Phillip Geier was in Dubbo to present a $5000 donation from the parent company to add to the total raised by the local crew – he said it’s great to work for a company where employees on the ground care, and where senior management is so quick to respond to such a worthy cause. “I couldn’t be prouder of the team here – they did it all, they
started it, they’ve done all the hard work, the marketing of it to get it out there, they’ve had enormous support from the media, and I couldn’t be prouder of what they’ve done,” Mr Geier said. “As a matter of course within the company, when something like this happens, we report it back and we got an immediate response from the Core Gas executive manager, Alan Watkins, and he came straight on board as a corporate contributor to this fundraiser, on top of what we’ve raised at a local level. “It ideally suited our operations we have here, we have the balloon gas in our gas products, we’ve got a shopfront so people could call in to a business that’s set up for customers, we had incredibly motivated staff so all we had to do was add balloons (note: local staff paid for all the balloons from their own pockets) and then the visual of the balloons being posted around town I’m sure has shown the Ray family and their friends there’s just so much community support behind them.”

By JOHN RYAN LOCAL school student Janaya Rose has won the 2020 Koori Interagency Network’s (DKIN) annual art competition. As the Dubbo College Senior Campus Dyiaamalang Cultural Captain, Janaya was already having an achievement-filled year so when the call came for local kids to create a uniform design that represented the Koori Interagency Network, but which was also designed to recognise and highlight the talents of Dubbo’s Aboriginal students, she was in. “I was keen to enter,� she said. “My artwork represents the community in Dubbo, coming together and being there for each other, I think that’s important.� The artwork submissions required a story to be told, one that represented first nation’s people coming together and the importance of community and communication. DKIN chairperson Dawn Towney said Janaya’s artwork incorporated all components of the brief and her winning piece will be showcased for years to come as the competition grows and continues annually. “Janaya’s winning artwork will be displayed on shirts worn by our Dubbo Koori Interagency Network
volunteers, with a competition being held each year to add to the design,� Ms Towney said. “We want to congratulate and thank Janaya for entering her artwork and look forward to presenting her with her very own shirt.� “Making a connection with our young people is important, and we’re honoured to be able to recognize their efforts.�. Dubbo College Senior Campus Aboriginal Education Officer Sue Sharp said she was impressed with Janaya’s achievements. “Firstly, and most importantly, congratulations to Janaya. She put in the effort to submit her artwork on time encompassing the requirements – she definitely earned this recognition,� Ms Sharp said. “Janaya represents her culture proudly in everything that she does, she’s a very talented young girl, she’s a great kid and it’s pleasing to see her efforts being rewarded,� she said. Janaya said her award was a pleasant surprise, and wonderful way to end the school year “I was surprised when Wanita and Dawn arrived at the school to make the presentation – I look forward to spending the voucher on something special for me and my family,� she said.
BROCKLEHURST is getting a new playground, with residents to vote on and decide the final design. Dubbo Regional Council (DRC) is contributing $27,000 to the project, on top of $80,000 gained through round three of the NSW Government’s Stronger Country Communities fund. DRC received nine designs from reputable, industry-based playground designers and suppliers, from which two were selected to progress through to the second stage – a community-based vote. The two options have been chosen based on their design, demonstrating high play value, durability, visual appeal, accessibility and compliance to set criteria and guidelines. The design that receives the majority of votes will be awarded the contract for the supply and installation of the playground. Votes can be made via a QR code on specially designed flyers, which are being delivered to residents of Brocklehurst village this week. Residents can also email DRC their votes, to council@dubbo. nsw.gov.au. The playground is planned to be installed by June 2021, at a location to be determined.

EDUCATION
Bindyi Club scholarships awarded By YVETTE AUBUSSON-FOLEY FOLLOWING a long line of tradition which dates back to the first high school in Dubbo, two Dubbo College Senior Campus students have been awarded The Bindyi Club education scholarships to support their tertiary studies. It’s a bright end to a challenging year for HSC students James Finch and Hannah Luffman. Graduating student James Finch received the Ruby Riach OAM Scholarship which is presented to a student leaving Year 12 to attend a tertiary institution. Jessica Schulte, Deputy Principal of Dubbo Senior Campus said that James boasted an array of qualities which saw him receive this prestigious award. “James has been a student of Dubbo College since Year 7, demonstrated outstanding academic excellence, has commendable attendance and has represented the College as a western area and Astley Cup athlete,” Miss Schulte said. Ruby Riach was a founding member of The Bindyi Club and served as president between 1995 – 2007. She had a distinguished career in education and has maintained her interest in education matters since her retirement. The Frank Heather Scholarship, given in memory of Frank Heather who was founder and the first secretary of The Bindyi Club, is awarded to a student planning to

study at Charles Sturt University, Dubbo Campus. Miss Schulte described this years’ recipient, Hannah Luffman as a “diligent and well-respected student who has excellent attendance and has represented Dubbo College in athletics at Astley Cup.” Dubbo College Principal Marisha Blanco said it was an honour and a joy to present such prestigious scholarships to our Dub-
bo College students and thanked The Bindyi Club for their ongoing support of Dubbo students. “It is one of the joys of my role as principal of Dubbo College Senior Campus to award worthy recipients, scholarships provided by The Bindyi Club. “These generous scholarships will assist in furthering the education of these students beyond Dubbo College, Miss Blanco said.
“We thank The Bindyi Club for its continued support of our student’s futures and wish both James and Hannah all the very best in their further studies” she said. The Bindyi Club is a club for ex-students of Dubbo High School and Dubbo College. The foundation was established to provide scholarships and prizes for eligible students.

DUBBO DAY AWARDS
Dubbo – special day, special people By YVETTE AUBUSSON-FOLEY THIS year’s Dubbo Day recipients were unveiled on December 15 and those who won awards were recognised for the significant and often incredible way they devote so much volunteer time towards making our city a better place for everyone. Dubbo Day marks the anniversary of Dubbo’s gazettal as a village on 23 November, 1849. Dubbo Regional Council (DRC) deputy mayor Stephen Lawrence said tying the awards to that place in time when Dubbo officially became a village is significant. “It’s important that we recognise the people who make our community a great place to live, and what better way to do that doing than at a special ceremony, in honour of the day Dubbo was officially gazetted,” he said. Every year a rich and diverse range of people are recognised and 2020 is no exception. Recipients included community members who work with young and disadvantaged kids, people who fundraise for international groups along with sporting committee volunteers and all things in between. This year’s Tony McGrane Award was presented to Rod Hannifey, who uses his personal career as a truck driver to advocate for improvements in road safety. Mr Hannifey has dedicated his life to the transport industry and has a particular focus on road safety. Whilst it’s common knowledge
Dubbo Day Tony McGrane Award recipient Rod Hannifey is one of Australia’s best known road safety advocates who has won a number of awards, including a Queensland Road Safety Award, the NatRoad Driver of the Year, the Australian Trucking Association National Professional Driver of the Year and the John Bond Safe Driver of the Year. PHOTO: DUBBO PHOTO NEWS/EMY LOU/FILE
that a truckie’s life consists of long hours, crucial deadlines and spending much time being away from your family, Rod Hannifey goes way above and beyond those mandatory sacrifices. He’s somehow managed to juggle those fulltime driving duties with organising or being in-
volved in countless road safety promotions and campaigns at local, state and national levels. He says he’s determined to foster a better understanding and relationship between trucks and cars on our roads. Mr Hannifey is a regular contributor to road safety inquiries,
he frequently makes submissions to governments of all levels on important transport issues and has made himself available to media across Australia to promote safe driving. The full story of this year’s Dubbo Day award recipients will be in next week’s Photo News.
Ag worth $100 billion THE Australian Parliament’s Agriculture and Water Resources Committee has published its report “Growing Australia: Inquiry into growing Australian agriculture to $100 billion by 2030”. The Committee’s inquiry considered how the Australian agriculture could reach the target set by the National Farmers’ Federation to grow the sector to a farmgate value of $100 billion by 2030. Committee Chair, Rick Wilson MP, described this target as ambitious but achievable and noted that “Australian producers have a strong track record of taking advantage of economic opportunities and delivering productivity growth over the long-term.” He said Australian farmers have consistently identified and embraced new technologies and techniques that can improve their businesses, with this innovative mindset making our producers well placed to benefit from the digital technologies that are rapidly becoming central to the process of farming. Mr Wilson also highlighted the importance of exports to the sector, stating there is perhaps no issue that will affect the trajectory of Australian agriculture more than our ability to expand and diversify our export markets. He also believes the quality of Australian produce is recognised globally, and that to take advantage of this reputation our nation must continually look for opportunities to expand into new markets, as well as seek productivity improvements that allow our producers to remain ahead of the game in competitive international markets. The report can be found at the inquiry website.
STUDY MEDICINE IN DUBBO THE University of Sydney, School of Rural Health (Dubbo / Orange) is excited to be launching the major building works for the new Doctor of Medicine program, set to commence in 2022. This is a great step forward when it comes to training medical practitioners in the bush, many of who it is hoped will end up practising in rural and regional areas.

DUBBO EISTEDDFOD
New guide on the region launched at Narromine Council
A fresh name and focus for local competition By LYDIA PEDRANA AFTER being cancelled in 2020 due to COVID-19, there is some good news for local performers with confirmation that the 2021 Dubbo eisteddfod will go ahead. The regarded competition, which attracts talented singers, dancers and actors from all over NSW, has also been renamed the Dubbo Eisteddfod for Performing Arts. On top of this, the City of Dubbo Eisteddfod Committee has onboarded the expertise of Dubbo-born theatre performer, Bethany Simons, to revamp the Speech and Drama Syllabus. Back in town due to the pandemic, Ms Simons consulted local teachers and artists regarding the revamp to ensure the new focus fostered creativity and art making, no just recitation. “There are lots of talented creatives in this city, so it was important to design a syllabus with inspiring criteria that encourages original content and young voices while also considering access, social relevance and audience entertainment value,” she told Dubbo Photo News. “I grew up doing the Eistedd-
fod circuit, but they’re not just for kids; eisteddfods are, by definition, competitive arts festivals. “I’d love to see locals of all ages entering and attending as audience members to support the arts in our region.” The syllabus overhaul will include new Speech and Drama sections, including Spoken Word, Local and First Nations poetry, Storytelling, Stand-Up Comedy, Theatre Making and the highly anticipated Lip-Sync Battle, which is sure to entertain. Additionally, the Dance syllabus will see the addition of new categories including Dance for people living with disability, and a Bedroom Dancing section – open to non-trained dancers who want to strut their stuff. While eisteddfod convenors, Barbara Redgrave and Judy Roots were disappointed the competition wasn’t able to go ahead this year, they believe next year’s extravaganza will be bigger and better than ever before. “The Dubbo Eisteddfod was to celebrate its 50th anniversary in 2020, so the hope is that this exciting revamp encourages increased entries for 2021 so that we can come back strong and con-

CANCER SUPPORT

IS YOUR CHILD READY FOR THE FUTURE?
CANASSIST president Fran Ellis has told Dubbo Photo News the crew was pleased they were able to celebrate their annual Christmas party on December 9. “It was a lovely evening held in a private garden and many of the members enjoyed the balmy evening on the lawn,” she said. “CanAssist, because of
COVID, has not had any fund raising this year, but did hold a raffle.” Maria Oates was very generous and donated a painting which was won by Shane Kilby, LoveMerino kicked in a beautiful scarf which was won by Jason Bates and a $100 dollar voucher to the wonderful Reflections Restaurant was won by Karen McMullan. CanAssist was able to help almost 100 of the
neediest cancer sufferers last financial year and look forward to the wonderful support Dubbo and surrounds give to their cause for the coming year of 2021. The group’s Annual Garden Day will be held on May 2, 2021 and the Golf Day sometime in August, with a Card Day later in the year. “Thank you, Dubbo, for supporting us with your generosity,” Fran Ellis said.
THE Welcome to the Orana Region booklet could be a handy tool to be used in conjunction with settlement services in the area according to Narromine Shire mayor Craig Davies. The publication offers insights into the region including education, employment, housing, medical and a section on each Local Government Area. The guide was launched at Narromine Shire Council. “I very much welcome this document known as the Welcome book,” Cr Davies said. “Narromine Shire has already taken preliminary steps to enter into an arrangement to commence an immigration program. Whilst it is very early days, the imperative of immigration grows daily for a shire hoping to expand significantly in the coming decades.” Cr Davies said we can no longer hope the city dwellers will leave the relative comfort of their coastal retreats to head west and take up the amazing jobs being created in rural and regional towns. “I look forward with much anticipation to the arrival of our first intake of immigrants and will welcome them with open arms knowing their lives will be changed and ours enhanced by their presence.”

SKIN CARE
Beauty is not just skin deep
By LYDIA PEDRANA
WHILE the beauty industry may cop some flak for its perceived materialism, the brains behind Dubbo’s The Skin Corrective Centre (TSCC) are trailblazing the extensive passion, education and innovation within the industry. Sisters Kim Scott and Heidi Nichols opened TSCC 11 years ago after relocating from Sydney to Dubbo, and they continue to lead the way by attracting highly trained medical professionals to their clinic and offering advanced dermal treatment. Mrs Scott and Mrs Nichols became invested in beauty therapy and cosmetic medicine after personally struggling with their own skin issues. “We both entered the aesthetics industry after personal quests to seek education and treatment for severe acne,” Mrs Scott told Dubbo Photo News. “This is where our passion grew, and we studied further to gain a deeper understanding of skin pathology and discovered what skin care ingredients evoke change and actually work, and
D re Di r cttor orss of o The hee Ski k n Correccti tive Centre, Heid He di Ni N ch c ol o s (lleeff t) t an nd d Kim Scott (rrig ghtt), ) say a their he ind he nd dustryy is constantlyy evo olvin lvving in ng and itt is important to o stay ah hea ead d off the curr ve, wh w ile st steering clear of fad of ds an a d tr t en e ds. PHO H TO: CO ONTRIBUTED
those that do not. “This left us both hungry for more study.” In 2002, Mrs Scott graduated with a Diploma of Beauty Therapy, closely followed by Heidi who finished in 2004. They went to work as educators teaching and training students in advanced paramedical skincare both in Australia and overseas. “As workplace trainers and assessors, we continued to educate those in our industry for a number of years with Sydney being our home base where we developed skills sets and underwent Dermal Therapies training in multiple modalities,” Mrs Scott said. “Working as business and brand development managers in Sydney and abroad taught us many things, most evident was the advancement in dermal therapies and our passion for offering comprehensive consultations and treatment programs for our patients.” Even after opening TSCC in 2008, the learning didn’t stop there. With five daughters between
them and a thriving business, the sisters are also studying a Bachelor of Health Science. In a noisy industry where trends and fashions come and go, it can be difficult to decipher which clinics are the real deal, and which exist just to make a quick buck. According to Mrs Scott and Mrs Nichols, what sets TSCC apart is its experienced staff. TSCC boasts nine aestheticians, four visiting physicians and a plastic surgeon. “We only employ dermal therapists and doctors with MBBS (Bachelor of Medicine, Bachelor of Surgery), who aim to provide educational and results orientated treatments for all patients, whilst maintaining a bespoke environment that clients come to expect when they enter to relax and have their skincare treatment,” Mrs Scott explained. With the new studies, therapies, products and unsolicited advice constantly being released, Mrs Scott said the industry is constantly evolving, meaning ongoing research and training is essential.
“Consumer behaviour and advancement in ‘basic beauty’ has and is still having a huge an impact on our industry,” she said. “I would liken our industry to IT, it changes every minute, every hour, with new clinical trials and medical papers being produced. “Social media also has a big impact, but Heidi and I have tried to really stay clear of fads and unethical treatments that tend to circulate.” In terms of what is highly sought-after at the moment, Mrs Scott said while more invasive therapies such as Botox are still popular, there has been a surge in non-invasive treatments too. “Heidi and I have introduced multiple modality paramedical facials which have taken professional results to a whole new level,” she explained. “I think people have discovered that nothing good happens overnight and it is best to plot a course for antiaging treatments and work at it both at home and in clinic. “There is still a market for injectables, and it is growing too as products improve and science and
art combine; it is quite incredible to see the transformations, but one thing we pride ourselves on is maintaining physician-only injectors, which means those seeking more advanced cosmetic medical procedures are always in safe and experienced hands.” For those considering a career in the industry, Mrs Scott said a genuine passion for skin and a motivation for patient care are non-negotiable, and they are traits that the two sister’s ooze in bucketloads. “The Skin Corrective Centre’s key business model is focused on health science, nutrition and general wellbeing, so it is critical those working in this capacity have comprehensive understanding of these elements,” she said. “It’s so rewarding to see patients gain confidence and happiness. “Skin diseases and disorders can be debilitating, but we now know how to help and treat these with proven success. “It actually makes me emotional just talking about it; it can truly change people’s lives.”

Arguably the sweetest job on earth By LYDIA PEDRANA DRIVING an ice cream van seems like the dream job, and according to Kath Spicer, affectionately known as Mrs Softy, it is. After leaving a gig in hospitality, Mrs Spicer entered the cleaning world before looking for something in 2019, a little more fulfilling. While she still dabbles as a cleaner, Mrs Spicer’s favourite part of the day is jumping into her custom-fit van, switching on the iconic Mr Whippy tune and watching salivating locals, both young and old, flock to her window. “It’s not even a job, it’s just fantastic,” she told Dubbo Photo News. “Every day is different, and I meet so many nice people and the kids are always very
excited to see me, in fact, most people are excited to see me, they are all smiling and happy.” Mrs Spicer tends to stick to her usual hotspots with the Dubbo Water Park being a favourite. On Sunday afternoons, she likes to pull up in the Eastridge area, indulging locals with an end-of-weekend treat. She can also be located on a fancy tracking App called Snack Track which will give users her exact location when she’s out and about. Pre-pandemic, one of Mrs Spicer’s favourite things to do was visit the elderly. “Before COVID I also used to go into some of the aged care facilities around Dubbo and the elderly would reminisce about their childhood
days.” She is also available for functions and events of any kind, even weddings. “Who would have thought, ice-cream at weddings,” she laughed. It may come as no surprise that the classic Choc Dip is the most popular item on the menu, closely followed by the Freckle Flake, which is vanilla soft serve coated in hundreds and thousands with a Flake poking out the side. And although she’s only been in the game since 2019, she’s nailed the perfect swirl. “I worked behind a bar for many years and it’s a lot different to pulling a beer, but it didn’t take too long to master,” she said. “I’ve had a couple fall in the chocolate when I first started, but I’ve mastered it now.”

IT’S great to see support given to community models that work and Buninyong School as Community Centre (SaCC) celebrated Christmas with their satisfied and content playgroup families on the evening December 10 at Elston park. Buninyong School as Community Centre local facilitator Lorna Brennan told Dubbo Photo News that dozens of families came along with their picnic blankets and dinner and enjoyed a wonderful evening sharing time with each other in a safely distanced way. “Everyone, including several other families who happened to be at the park already joined us for a massive Music and More session,” she said. “Then came the finale – the Dubbo Pipe Band marched into the park to entertain us all with lots of Christmas tunes, kids and adults alike were enchanted.” She said it was a very fitting way to mark the end of playgroup for 2020. If you’d like to learn more about kids having fun, playing games and forming friendships in 2021 you can search for Facebook for the Buninyong Public School-NSW DoE SaCC or contact Lorna Brennan on 0431719553.
SaCCs are a Families NSW initiative. SaCCs support families with young children from birth to 8 years with a particular focus on the years prior to school entry.

EMERGENCY REPORT NEWS OPINION AND ANALYSIS by JOHN RYAN
You know what? 2020 has been a horrible year for most people but one constant that’s always there is the ongoing work done by all our emergency services – volunteer, retained and full-time. The effort they all put in to make Australia a better place is amazing. A year ago, the nation was battling massive wildfires on a scale never before seen and that crisis dominated headlines for months. Now there’s a bit of positive payback with emergency services personnel in our region getting some well-deserved accolades. Let’s start off with a warm congratulations to the members of Narromine Shire Rural Fire Service Brigade who received their NSW Premier’s Citations, the award arriving just in time for the current fire season. And while we’re in Narromine, it’s great to see local MP Dugald Saunders spending time with the local NSW Fire and Rescue 401 crew to present them with a few pats on the back. Mr Saunders timed his visit well, arriving just as the station’s Christmas party got into full, COVID-safe, swing. The Dubbo MP presented the 401 crew with their Bushfire Citations, a certificate signed by Premier Gladys Berejiklian, and each firefighter was also presented with a medal and baseball cap. Mr Saunders then presented National Medals to 401 Retained

Firefighters Tony Coen and Lynden Davis. Santa Claus, looking official in his red and white uniform, visited the party and gave Mr Saunders a bag containing fire safety material, a ‘keep looking when cooking’ spoon, and a smoke alarm. Many former 401 Narromine Firefighters also attended the party, including former 401 Narromine Captain Robert Hawkins AFSM, former Deputy Captain Bob Treseder, and former Retained Firefighters Roger Blackman and Bob Davis.
401 Station fire captain Ewen Jones said everyone enjoyed a PowerPoint presentation which contained over 500 photos along with recent and vintage footage.
Major state DV award for Western Region cop DOMESTIC Violence is a massive issue in this region but with much of the drama occurring behind closed doors, it’s often unseen by people who aren’t affected by it.

Fine for refusal to serve assistance dog user TALK about a debate that ignited Dubbo’s social media. Here’s the bare bones of the story. A 75-year-old woman who wanted a feed at the Amaroo Hotel was refused service because she had an assistance dog with her, and she was requested to leave the premises. Police were told the woman was in line to order a meal from the bistro when she was approached by two staff members of the hotel and witnesses told officers the woman was questioned about the

IT’S A RECORD!
Patsy Forrester and Cr Ben Shields
Simone Williams from Brooklyn, New York, has officially broken the Guinness World Record for the largest afro (female). Her phenomenal afro is 20.5cm tall, 22.5cm wide, and 1.48 metres in circumference. Simone attempted this record because she always gets comments about her the size of her “voluminous natural afro”. She was also inspired by the previous record holder, Aevin Dugas (USA), who held the record for eight years.

NS FOR MITCHELL
By KEN SMITH IT’S difficult to remember a time when a young life has touched so many people in Dubbo and further afield. Here’s a snapshot of some Dubbo families and businesses who wanted Mitchell Ray’s family to know they wanted to share their overwhelming grief, and in some small way, help ease what has been such a horrible burden. Seven-year-old Mitchell died in Sydney on December 6 surrounded by his loving family, but the impact of his very short life saw his soul surrounded by thousands of people, many who didn’t know him or his family. This is their way to show they care.

Another question will cover how the on-going relationship with the local LHD will work, especially in relation to the detox beds. Registration for the event is encouraged.

ISSUE
When I do becomes I don’t After recently reverting to her maiden name, Wellington’s Lizzy George has spoken out publicly about women changing their name after marriage. She told NATALIE LEWIS her thoughts on social pressure, family tradition and post-nuptial expectations. “I CHANGED my name because in my opinion at that time, that was why people got married,” she said, explaining that when she wed in 2009, she was the first of her friends to walk down the aisle. “I was pregnant and looking back, I think I wanted us all to have the same name, because traditionally that was what you did.” At the time, Ms George happily changed her name without too much consideration and says she ‘didn’t know you didn’t have to change it’. “It didn't feel like social pressure, it just wasn’t in my mind to even consider not changing it. Subconsciously I thought it was the thing that everybody did when they got married because that was what society dictated. We eloped, so I didn’t have a big wedding or discussions with everyone leading up to it. I signed the papers and when I did, I changed my name. It seemed simple and the right thing to do.”
In hindsight, she ‘probably would’ve still changed it, because at that time in my life I wanted to have his name.’ “I wanted the same name as my kids. I thought that was what made us a family. That is what society had taught me, that when you get married the bride takes on the husband's name and when they become parents, the family all have the same surname.” Now going through divorce, Ms George described the paperwork as a mammoth task that will take a great deal of time to work through – changing superannuation, mortgage, car loan, driver’s licence, bank accounts, email addresses, passport, business card and utilities. “It wasn’t an easy decision to make, as my two sons obviously still have their father’s name, but it just didn’t feel like that was who I am anymore. I no longer identify
Name change options After marriage, people can legally take the surname of their spouse (either male or female) or hyphenate or merge their two names. Anyone can legally change their name if they are over 18, by providing certain details to the NSW Government and paying a fee. More information is available at https://www.nsw.gov.au/topics/ name-changes-and-corrections/ change-of-name
myself with that surname.” While she has spent most of her working life using her married name, Ms George knows that many people also recognise her maiden name as she grew up in Wellington. “Personally and professionally, the impact has been varied. I am only really starting to feel the impact now that I am changing it back to my maiden name,” she said. In the future, Ms George doesn’t think she will change her name again, even if she remarries. She wants to let people know that it is a choice, not a condition of getting married. “Having the ability to change your name to something you identify with is such an individual choice,” she said. “It’s often assumed that the woman will take the man’s name and it's something that I believe has become outdated. “I just don’t think it's highlighted enough that changing your name to your partner’s name when you get married is a choice, or maybe I just missed the memo or perhaps I am the outdated one and lots of people already know this fact.” Ms George believes that the legalisation of same sex marriage has done a lot to clarify this seemingly grey area of saying ‘I do’. “Perhaps the next generation are already much wiser than me and realise that your name is yours to decide what you want to do with it. I really hope that is the case. I don’t

have any problems with someone taking on their partner’s name, provided they identify with that name. I also have no issue with someone legally changing their name to whatever makes them happy. The fact we have a choice is a wonderful thing. “I’ve given it a lot of thought and should I marry in the future I will continue with my current name,
Nasty weather hits Wello too By COLIN ROUSE DURING last week’s storms, a mini tornado type storm ripped through Wellington on Monday evening causing a lot of damage.

my birth name. Changing my name and then changing it back has been a massive undertaking and I know deep down I will always identify the most with the name my parents gave me, Elizabeth Aimee George. “I was named after my grandmother and she was my favourite human in the world, so it’s really nice to go back to being her namesake.”

HEALTH
By YVETTE AUBUSSON-FOLEY
NSW medical staff say they are gagged by their employment contracts from speaking out about conditions in NSW hospitals which put patients and themselves at risk. A state parliamentary inquiry which closed to submissions on Sunday is tackling these concerns and was originally called for by NSW Labor after a death at Tenterfield Hospital was reportedly linked to a lack of clinical resources. Closer to home, Narromine Hospital’s alleged lack of services was in the spotlight on Sunday, December 6, through a segment on the Nine Network’s 60 Minutes program. This was followed in Dubbo and Wellington with a visit by the Shadow Minister for Rural Health Kate Washington who hosted two Rural and Regional Health Roundtables in each community. At the roundtables, lived experiences of the health system were shared with the Shadow Minister by paramedics, nurses, midwives, Indigenous health care givers and consumers of the health system. “We’ve got nurses that are stressed, feeling compromised, overwhelmed and they shouldn’t have to feel like that. They’re covering hospitals largely on their own, and there are so many services that are operating without doctors so the nurses and allied health, or the health workers, are all doing their best in an immensely under resourced system,” Mrs Washington told Dubbo Photo News. “There’s a lot of powerful, passionate people in the community that want to see change. That are recognising the system is already failing and that there’s a need to do so much more. “I have been hearing similar is-

sues in other areas, but I’ve got to say today’s were some of the most harrowing stories and deeply concerning,” she said. Shadow Health Minster Ryan Park said it’s important for health professionals and locals to share the harrowing incidents and failings of their local hospitals, ahead of public hearings next year. Former Dubbo Hospital chief executive officer of 18 years and Private Hospitals Association of NSW executive director Brian Semmler
says compared to 60 years ago, there is a total lack of medical and obstetrics services for rural NSW. “It’s so pertinent too, because of what happened to the lady at Gulgong Hospital, the lady dying. She may have died anyway, we don’t know that, but the family are never going to be convinced of that and what’s more, there should have been a doctor,” Mr Semmler told Dubbo Photo News. Dawn Trevitt, 66, died this year at Gulgong Hospital while being
treated via telehealth and while the hospital was without a physical doctor for four months. That any hospital could be without a physical doctor for four months has outraged Mr Semmler who started his career at Gulgong Hospital, saying so much has been lost in the 60 years since. “What are our politicians and bureaucrats doing about it. When I went to Gulgong in the middle of 1961, then as secretary, later as CEO, we had two very well qual-
ified, experienced medical practitioners’ resident in the town. They both had what we called in those days, honorary appointments at the hospital. They had the right to treat their private patients, and to offset that, they had to give a free service to public patients. “They both did a reasonable level of surgery. One anesthetised for the other and vice versa depending on who was doing the surgery. Obstetric services were readily available. People didn’t

house? have to go 300 kilometres away to have their babies. You could get all that in Gulgong, population 1500. “Another example. There was a medical practitioner by the name of Keith McLoughlin at Narromine. Keith was a GP surgeon. He would fly out to places like Cobar and Brewarrina, do surgery and have the local GP do the anaesthetics. “Ladies didn’t have to go 300 kilometres to have their babies. There was no disruption to their family unit, which they need around them. It’s just shocking today,” Mr Semmler said. He places at least some blame squarely on the shoulders of do-gooders. “The do-gooders, who have never been outside a metropolitan hospital or a university, all of a sudden decided it was dangerous for women to have babies in small hospitals. No justification. No statistics to show there were any issues, but they decided that,
so they wanted all those services brought into a main centre. “The same with surgery. They decided GPs could no longer do surgery at Dubbo Hospital. We introduced what was called a Classified Medical System, which means only surgeons could have an appointment at the hospital as surgeons and do surgery and only physicians – they couldn’t have a GP come any longer to the hospital – could have hospital appointments. You don’t have any GPs attending the public hospital anymore. They were shut out years ago.” There’s also no incentive for them to live in smaller communities, because of limits on the tasks they are permitted to do. “Why would a GP want to go to those places? If their basic training teaches them surgery as well as medicine, which it used to, now it’s specialised off into streams and these days, there’s a lot of medicine they wouldn’t even know when they come out
of university. In the past they had a whole range of skills. I don’t believe they have those anymore. “Why would they want to go to a small place, when all they are allowed to do, is stitch up a little cut in somebody’s hand or see them because they’ve got a cough or a cold, or something like that. There’s no work interest or value in being there. “Sixty-years ago, the value for doctors was they could do a whole range of things. They could treat their patients. They could put them into hospital. They could tend to them while they were there. They could do surgery, deliver babies etc. That’s a massive difference.” Mr Semmler says he has always resisted these changes. “I would suggest there is nothing yet anywhere to show that having all of obstetrics brought into Dubbo has saved any problems or done anything. The whole system needs turning upside down.

OPINION & ANALYSIS
THE TOONS’ VIEWS
Plea to deal with Wellington health crisis The Editor, If there had not been a doctor at the Wellington Hospital when I had three emergency trips, and instead had to be driven to Dubbo, I would not be here today to write this letter. I am sure this applies to others as well. There was an important meeting in Wellington on the evening of Tuesday, November 24, 2020. Dugald Saunders did not attend. Where was he? The Legislative Assembly was not sitting in Parliament. It was too late in the evening to make announcements and have photos taken. So what was the reason for his absence? Dugald Saunders is purported to have said “I’m confident there will be a positive outcome” at Wellington Hospital”. He goes on to say, “But I will continue to advocate for our region and I’m confident the plans in place for Wellington will see a positive outcome”. Tell us Dugald Saunders, what are the “plans”? There is no point “writing letters to the relevant Minister” as you are fond of doing, or “having a chat” to the relevant Minister. It is time for you to do what you were elected to do. You asked before, “Do you really and truly bang on the table and make demands of colleagues or focus on getting on and getting along?” And I say again, “Bang hard on that table Dugald Saunders and don’t worry about getting along with your colleagues.” Councillor Vicki Etheridge is advocating for Wellington. The silence from the two Wellington Councillors is deafening. Why? Kate Bailey, Ponto
The best way to allocate corporate donations The Editor, Following construction, Infigen Energy in an agreement with Wellington Council committed to contribute a minimum of $50,000 per annum to ‘community projects’ in Wellington and its surrounding villages which was to be administered by Council, and a further $17,000 per annum was to be available through applications made direct to Infigen Energy. Recently the media reported that $320,000pa was being sought by Dubbo Regional Council from
the developers of the proposed Uungala Windfarm, 12km from Wellington, and I was interested to know if my town would again receive appropriate benefit from this money. In reply to an email from me to the Council’s Chief Executive Officer Michael McMahon, he advised that there are four components to this contribution: 1. Council undertaking a range of strategic planning projects for our region. 2. Funding for strategic projects implemented by Council. 3. The Community Benefit Fund. 4. Road maintenance. Mr McMahon advised that the Community Benefit Fund component will be administered by Council’s solar and wind farm consultative committee and the funding from this component (whatever it may be) would cover the whole Dubbo Regional Council area. In the last published minutes I could find there was concern expressed by those present that Council did not have a representative on the referred to consultative committee. Wellington badly needs some real voices on Council, who are involved on these consultative committees, so that we don’t continue to end up with more correctional centres, solar farms, wind farms and ugly associated infrastructure, with no investment in essential support to maintain a safe, liveable, historically desirable community. Surely it is not unreasonable for me to interpret that a community benefit fund is for the purpose of benefitting a community impacted by such developments, and not to fund some distant unaffected project, remembering this was the basis of the original arrangement with Infigen Energy with our first wind farm. Roger Everett, Maryvale

everyone is flexible like a flag on the wind. You don’t need to be my age to remember that the government who made the amalgamation won partly because they promised that if they won the last election they will not do it forcibly. What was next was classic behaviour of people who conquered another territory. They got rid of leaders (elected mayors) and created new borders and new names, all to make people forget that there ever was another order. Some of them really learn something from the books of history. Jessica Gough is condemning people who don’t embrace what was enforced and she’s demanding that people forget. Of course, I don’t know the future. It is possible that new generations, for whom what is now was always, will be happy and not want changes, but there are some people who will not forget who they were. Ziggy Pierzchalski, Dubbo
The US election – some thoughts from afar The Editor, The Trump team continues to allege significant widespread fraud in the recent US Presiden-
tial election. There either was or there wasn’t. Many in the US are now alleging that several hostile nations had a vested interest in removing Trump, and that they interfered in the election. Once again, this was the case or it wasn’t. The US constitution has a clearly marked pathway to deal with all these questions, and the wheels are ticking over. Time will tell. While I watch this play out, I have been observing my own responses with interest. I found myself judging third world countries with low expectations. I expect rampant corruption ‘there’. But not ‘here’. Not in the ‘civilised west’. No – we are above that! Then I had to ponder what would be my response if it turns out that the election was stolen from Trump? What would this say about the media? Both here and there, the media have by and large refused to cover any of the emerging allegations. Also, if the Democrats and half the Republicans have been against Trump at this time, where are these politicians at? If fraud is being alleged, shouldn’t all politicians have an interest in finding the truth, one way or the other, especially about something so fundamental as a
presidential election? How will I come to terms with a realisation that many politicians in a first world nation could be so corrupt? And worse still, how could this corruption be covered up by much of the media? If Trump is wrong, then I needn’t have worried. But if he’s right, will I be able to humble myself and admit that, within our advanced society, rampant corruption may exist amongst our politicians, the media, etc? Will I be able to accept that some of those I have put my trust in have not been worthy of that trust? These allegations may prove to be false, and Biden will go on to become President. Or Trump may be confronting something very ugly in our advanced western world. It might be good for us all to consider this possibility. How would we respond? Being prepared, just in case, is always a good plan. Garry Tosh, Dubbo z Letters to the editor are best limited to no more than 250 words and may be edited for clarity, space or legal reasons.

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

ODDS, ENDS & INSPIRATION STRANGE BUT TRUE z Pine cones have genders. Male pine cones shed pollen and female pine cones make seeds. When the wind blows pollen into the female cones, the seeds become pollinated. z Cats are believed to be the only mammals that don’t taste sweetness. z The first-ever fashion magazine was sold in Germany in 1586. z Early cosmetic surgeons used a procedure known as paraffin wax rhinoplasty, in which they would inject hot liquid wax into a patient’s nose and mould it into the desired shape. Not only was this dangerous, but, no surprise, it really didn’t work. z Canada eats more macaroni and cheese than any other nation in the world.
z A French general, the Marquis de Lafayette, gave the sixth President of the United States, John Quincy Adams, a pet alligator. Adams not only kept it in a White House bathtub, but enjoyed showing it off to visitors. z There is a town in India called Santa Claus. z Ever wonder how the tradition of leaving hand and footprints in front of Grauman’s Chinese Theatre in Hollywood got started? By accident – when silent film actress Norma Talmadge stepped on wet cement. z Cellophane, invented in 1908, was originally intended to protect tablecloths from wine spills. z Those old witch potions aren’t quite as gross as you think: Eye of newt, toe of frog and wool of bat are actually archaic terms for mustard seed, buttercup and holly leaves.
NOW HERE’S A TIP z Inexpensive gift idea: On the front of an empty photo album or scrapbook, print out and arrange colour photos of your recipient in a collage. Glue the photos to the front of the album and cover with a decoupage glaze. Let dry and glaze again. You’ve just made a one-of-akind gift! z If you are a re-gifter, always document from whom and in what year you received a gift. Then re-gift it to someone who will have little to no contact with that person. For example, if Aunt Emily from out of town sends you a lovely soap basket that you would never use, you could re-gift it for your office party. z After-Christmas sales are a great time to buy not only gift wrap (look for solid colours that you can use all year long), holiday cards and decoration, but also next season’s
summer wear. Take advantage – especially if you have kids – and buy up. z “Recycle in the new year by using wrapping supplies to help store your holiday decorations. The cardboard tube from gift wrap can be cut into smaller pieces, which you can wrap strands of tree or house lights around. Boxes can be put to use to hold ornaments or other decorations, and ribbon and bows that are still in good condition can be tucked away for re-use next year.” – E.F. z “Resolutions are a great idea, and, like a lot of people, last year I resolved to exercise more often. I keep a stationary bike in my living room, and I use it while I watch my favourite programs on television. It has helped me lose 8 pounds, and I feel much better. This year, I am going to resolve to volunteer to help others.” – I.N.

Many of whom aren’t even members of any golf club, which goes to show how well unstructured events can work when people know they can come and go and not let anyone down if they can’t make it on the day. After eight rounds of the competition, the men's competition is averaging 37 male golfers each week, up from the 27 average from last year. Co-organiser Stephen McCarroll
said that the event was unusual in that players don't have to be a member of a golf club to compete. "We take all comers and have our own system of allocating handicaps to those who are not club members," Mr McCarroll said. "Just over half of our players don't belong to a golf club, and five of the winners in the first eight rounds this spring don't belong to a club. It has been really good for people who can't find the time to devote to club membership and regular competition play, but who still like to socialise and have a hit." Peter Payne co-organises the comp and he attributed the increase in numbers to the ending of the drought along with the on-
CONTRIBUTED
going sponsorship by Infigen Energy’s Bodangora Wind Farm. “As well as having daily prizes, there is an overall competition prize for both men and women based on the aggregate of a player’s best seven rounds,” Mr Payne said. "I think that this very social and
relaxed competition with good prizes provides a real pressure release valve for quite a few people who were doing it hard as a result of the drought at the end of last year, and now because of the COVID-19 impact.” Stephen McCarroll said fall-out
from the Coronavirus pandemic meant the club was unable to have a presentation night for the 2019/2020 winners. "Those who missed having their presentation night were Cameron Batho, who won the men's competition from Brad Taylor and Russell Gersbach, while in the women’s competition it was Gae Drew, Kim Gersbach and Kathy Martin who had a triple dead heat for first," he said. Both organisers said there’s still time for players to join this year’s competition, which runs through to April, and that anyone interested can contact Wellington Golf Club on 6845 2130.

“TC” will never be forgotten “In recognition of the late Tony Kelly’s long and illustrious contribution to the City of Dubbo and the Dubbo Community, we the undersigned respectfully request that Victoria Park Number One Oval be named Tony Kelly Oval in perpetuity, with appropriate signage being installed and a befitting naming ceremony be conducted.”
Dubbo has had among its citizenry many people who have contributed greatly to the creation of this amazing city. In my opinion, none more so than Anthony George Kelly PSM. – Ken Rogers
By GEOFF MANN THE above is the opening paragraph of a letter handed to Mayor Ben Shields. His response was gratifying and as expected. “I will prepare a Mayoral Minute for Monday’s meeting. Mr Kelly was General Manager when I started on Council. He mentored me through my initiation as a Councillor and his enormous legacy deserves to be recognised.” Tony Kelly, a larger than life character known and loved as “TC” – Top Cat – served the community of Dubbo and the region for 36 years up until his retirement in November 2004. As Town Clerk he navigated Dubbo Council through the amalgamation with Talbragar Shire which resulted in the creation of Dubbo City Council in 1993. After an exhaustive recruitment process, Tony was appointed General Manager of the new Dubbo City Council and under the new NSW Local Government Act, set about modernizing under a corporate structure. “Mr Kelly worked closely with staff and councillors to set the building blocks for the fastest growing city in regional NSW,” the letter signed by Roger Fletcher OAM, former Member for Dubbo and City Councillor Dawn Fardell, former Mayors Alan Smith and Matthew Dickerson, Dubbo Cricket Association President Jeff Shanks, businessman and former Chair of Regional Development Australia John Walkom, former Director of Parks and Landcare Services and now retired Director Corporate Development Ken Rogers and long-serving personal assistant to the GM, Charlene Bower. The co-signers acknowledged the tribute had been forwarded with the permission of Barb Kelly. In his Minute, mayor Ben Shields emphasised the precedents for honouring Mr Kelly. “Many citizens have been rightly memorialised over time in different ways. Tony McGrane Place, John McGrath Oval, Nita McGrath Netball Complex, Judy Jakins Drive, Bob Dowling Oval, Katrina Gibbs Oval, the Bruce Neads Grandstand at Apex Oval, John Gilbert Water Treatment Plant and the L.H. Ford Bridge are some examples. These have all been richly earned, and Tony Kelly PSM is deserving of similar public recognition. “TC” had an unwavering vision for Dubbo and his leadership and the relationships that he developed with different Mayors, Councillors and staff during his 29 years as Town Clerk and General Manager ensured that the interests of the Dubbo Community always came first. The letter and Mayoral Minute stated that Mr Kelly’s legacy is well documented in Council archives

and other records. “What is possibly not so well documented is TC’s love of sport and the way it unified communities.” In a testimony to the man everyone called “TC”, the motion to rename No 1 as “Tony Kelly Oval” was passed unanimously and without discussion. ••• KEN Rogers former Director of Parks and Landcare Services and now retired Director Corporate Development I am honored and privileged to have the opportunity to speak to you briefly today about a very special man and to acknowledge Barb Kelly, the very special lady who, always in the background, stood behind him. Tony Kelly served the community of Dubbo and region for 36 years up until his retirement in November 2004. As town clerk of the Council of Dubbo, he navigated Dubbo’s way through the amalgamation with Talbragar Shire resulting in the creation of Dubbo City. TC’s vision for the new city was encapsulated in the first structure plan for Dubbo. This set the foundations for growing the beautiful, prosperous and dynamic city we have today. In 1993 the new NSW Local Government Act was introduced and through due process Tony was appointed general manager of Dubbo City Council. The new Act presented an opportunity for him as General Manager to modernize the Council by introducing a corporate structure. This was the foundation on which Dubbo City Council was established as the fastest growing city in regional New South Wales. Tony’s unwavering vision for Dubbo and his leadership and the relationships that he had with the different mayors, councillors, and councils during his 29 years as town clerk and general manager ensured that the interests of the city and the Dubbo community always came first. Tony loved sport and the way it unified communities. He was a noted football player in the ‘Fishies’ team in his younger days. I believe that this is where he developed an appreciation for the importance and value of teams. He carried this value into his role as general manager of the Council. In those foundation building years, teamed up with mayors and business leaders including Tom Slattery, Tony McGrane, Roger Fletcher to ensure that the important infrastructure and services such as a se-
cure water supply, road network, waste management facilities, sporting fields, open space network and a university were put in place, supported by a zoning plan to ensure that the all important industry sector could grow and prosper without impacting on, or being threatened by the growth of the urban areas of the city. He did all this enthusiastically, professional but with little fuss or fanfare. TC never wavered in his vision for Dubbo. He was a no nonsense and pragmatic facilitator who enabled Dubbo to become what many regard as the most prosperous and liveable city in regional NSW. As testament to this, numerous delegations from NSW and interstate Councils visited Dubbo City Council during TC’s tenure “to see how it should be done.” TC, having himself come up through the ranks from an assistant clerk to GM, had a clear policy of developing his people so that they might also be promoted within the organization. They were his people; this his organization. Dubbo City Council his team was more like a family to TC. He had a genuine love of “his people”. I can personally vouch for this. When our first grandson, Tom was born 23 years ago, I naturally wanted to tell TC the good news. Immediately after work that same day, TC arranged for Tom Slattery, himself and me to meet at the Macquarie Club “to wet the boy’s head”. Al-
though he’d never smoked in his life TC arranged for three cigars to be delivered which we inhaled together in celebration! When I visited Tony at Orana Gardens just a couple of days before he died, one of the first things he asked was, “How’s Maree (my wife) and Tom?” Dubbo has had among its citizenry many people who have contributed greatly to the creation of this amazing city. In my opinion, none more so than Anthony George Kelly PSM. ••• JAYNE Bleechmore, friend and former work colleague “TC – Town Clerk – Top Cat! Two weeks ago “TC asked” me to say a few words today and I’m extremely honoured to do so. TC gave me my first job at council in early 1998. It was a surprise, given I wasn’t male, Catholic or played for CYMS! He was the best General Manager there ever was, without a doubt truly admired and respected by all of his staff and the wider community. Dubbo City Council was TC’s family. He genuinely believed that the staff therein was its most important asset. TC knew every staff member’s name and those of their family members and kept tabs on everyone’s wellbeing. If someone’s family had some sort of challenge, he’d make it his business to phone or visit them. If any of his staff found themselves facing challenging times, he stood by them throughout. There are plenty here today including me, who can attest to TC’s personal support. Tony led with immense integrity, honesty and decency; he was a caring boss; he was firm, fair and consistent. He appreciated those who did their job well but we all knew you only had three chances with TC! When displeased with you, he’d glare at you over the top of his glasses announce.... “now that’s one...” but rarely... “now that’s two”. It didn’t

happen often but when it did you knew you were in deep trouble. I fondly remember TC’s weekly debrief with Ken Rogers at 69 Church Street, opposite the Council Administration Building. TC would waltz in, sit down and immediately look for his coffee, made to precise exactness, as well as his six chocolate Monte biscuits. We ran low on those one week and he only got four chocolate Monte’s. The Manager glared at me over his glasses – “That’s one! “ TC was a regular at Dubbo City Bowling Club – ‘The Bowlo’ – before and after his retirement. He commanded the table where only a chosen few could sit. He called it his “Table of Knowledge”. To gain a seat at the TOK, candidates had to answer every question correctly from the Millionaire Hot Seat afternoon quiz show being beamed over the bar! I was delighted to make it to The Table on my first attempt but was peeved to learn I had been ceremoniously evicted because I missed three weeks in a row. Commitment was commitment after all and you only ever got three chances! TC loved to party with his staff and he was a regular (and honorary Life-Member) of the DCC Social Club. He encouraged staff to enjoy time-out and encouraged camaraderie between departments. He always allowed time to have some fun especially at Christmas and he attended almost every Christmas party even if he had to dress up in some wackythemed costume! Now most of you would know that TC was partial to a schooner of New – or two – with anyone! The wise ones amongst us soon learned, from experience, that one should never, ever, ever, enter into a shout with him. The consequences were always fine for TC; not so much for the lightweights among us! The female staff spoke of how TC loved to be part of the Council Girls Group and enjoyed sitting around the table with more than 20 of us together. We’d fetch and carry from the bar for him and before anyone could leave, he’d make us all join hands and lead us as he bellowed out his “Happy, Happy” song – much to the annoyance of other diners out for a quiet dinner! I’ll miss you Top Cat!

Red Ochre to be the highlight of Carnival of Cups
Converted try for Cale oval By GEOFF MANN CHAMPIONS like Ross McKinnon, Bob Weir, Arnold Gillespie, Leo Nosworthy, Ross Cale, David, “Cement” Gillespie, Pat and Mark Smith, Dennis Ritchie, Phil Phillips, all the Walsh boys, Steve Thompson, Josh Cale, Pat and Lachie McCutcheon as well as Wallaroo Bec Smythe have graced Cale Oval. They have thrilled the thousands upon thousands of spectators who’ve poured through the gates, seated on rugs, chairs, temporary grandstands, the backs of utes and trucks and in more recent years, red and white
benches under cover on the western side. That’s all about to change following the announcement of a state government grant to upgrade the facilities. A club house and much better viewing platform should once again fill the old ground as Jets, Gorillas and the Macquarie Emus – female and male – chase leather and enjoy their sport. “It’s a game-changer. A huge boost for all the dedicated sports-loving volunteers who give so generously to make sure we have community sport. Football, in particular has been a huge attraction over the

past 130 years or more as our proud town has battled droughts, floods and the challenges against teams from Dubbo, Parkes, Forbes, Wellington, Nyngan, Cobar, Orange, Mudgee and Bathurst,” Jets’ Publicity Officer Sally Everett beamed. “It’s only fitting we receive this funding after the many, many talented players we’ve nurtured and the thousands who have been
able to enjoy the opportunity to play with their mates.” Sally was most appreciative of the support given by the local member and Narromine Shire Council. “Dugald Saunders has been out here a few times to discuss our needs and we know he has taken our case to the Premier.” Work is expected to commence on the refurbishment of Cale Oval in the new year.
All sports will benefit from the refurbishment – Tennis, Netball and Basketball as well as junior and senior footy.
DUBBO Harness Racing Club (HRC) will celebrate arguably the most incredible season in its history tomorrow (December 19) night with the running of the Red Ochre, the richest race for Fillies and Mares. Racing Coordinator Craig Dumesney says it is the perfect way to get in the mood for Christmas. 'We've all missed the company of our racing friends. Even though we have had some patrons along to recent meetings this is the big one." There's lots of money and plenty of fine trophies on of-
fer in the spectacular nine race Carnival of Cups. "We've got the best horses from across the state competing for the Little Brown Jug, Golden Gig and the prestigious Red Ochre," Craig smiled. 'This is the one we've all been waiting for. Council, Harness Racing NSW and our local trainers and drivers have all pitched in to keep racing going through all the challenges so it will be good to have everyone trackside." The Dubbo HRC races again on Boxing Day.
Ducks went prawn hunting on Sunday THE veteran swimmers had a splash on Sunday morning then dashed off to dry their feathers and settle in for the annual presentation and Christmas party. As usual, el-Presidente Henry Willcockson and
his side-kick, “Cap’n” Dave Sparkes handed out raw prawns which were devoured with great vigour!
Jeffrey Dawe was a popular winner of several awards at the annual Ducks Presentation Lunch and Christmas Party at the RSL on Sunday. Next week Dubbo Photo News will have a few more photos
and all the winners from the Dubbo Veterans Swimming Club’s 60th year. Bridget Mann and Carol Wilcockson “just had to see what Jeffrey had won”!
Next week we will bring you all the winners after a year “with a difference”.

Remember the name: Maya Piras (gold medallist)
DUBBO College super sprinter Maya Piras leaped every hurdle on her way to the top of the podium, confirming the immense talent that has been nurtured under head coach Mark Penman. Dubbo athletics has seen many outstanding track athletes including Ros Poulton, Shem Holland and Olympian Melinda Gainsford but in Maya, there is a real possibility we could see another Maureen Caird, Jane Fleming, Debbie Flintoff-King or Sally Pearson. Maya claimed the mantle of NSW’s fastest 100 metres hurdler at the All Schools Carnival at the Olympic track in Homebush. Grace Peters threw a personal best 38.40m to win the 12yrs discus. She completed her set of coloured medals with a silver in javelin and bronze in shot put, all in PBs. Ella Penman showed why she is rated in the top mid-
dle-distance runners in the land, finishing second in both the 14yrs 800 and 1500 metre events. It comes on the back of an eye-catching cross country result earlier in this disrupted year. Thirteen-year-old Jakob Peterson brought home two bronze medals, from the 100m and long jump Determined 17-year-old Lockie Townsend was third in the 800m, clocking a time of 2.00.34. Other athletes to have obtained personal bests and top results include: Phoebie Ryan (13) – PBs 800m & 400m Mia Penman (13) – PBs 800 & 1500 Benray Ludick (13) – PB Discus James Cosier (14) – 5th 400m Ben Batten (15) – PB Discus Hamish Price (16) – PB 200m Millie Gooch (16) – PB 100m hurdles More local athletes will have
their chance to shine at a State Qualifying carnival at Barden Park in early Feb. This event allows U/9 – U/12 age groups – ‘Littles’, as they are being called – to test themselves with similar carnivals scheduled across all regions. The best athletes will be selected to participate at the NSW State Little Athletics Carnival at Homebush on Marsh 20-21st. Because of COVID restrictions the ‘Littles’ have been split from the ‘Youth’ (13-17s) to limit numbers and ensure social distancing. Dubbo Club member Sarah Ryan says that at this stage the ‘Youth’ age groups will nominate straight to State with qualifying times/distances. “We are still hoping to get a Carnival happening for them prior to State so they have some opportunities to get qualifiers. We are still awaiting advice on if or when this might occur.”
