COUNCIL WATCH

Mayor faces misconduct allegation

By YVETTE AUBUSSON-FOLEY SEVEN Dubbo Regional councillors yesterday called upon members of the community who feel they have had inappropriate interactions with the mayor, or any other councillor, to come forward and contact council as soon as possible.

The latest development came two days after mayor Ben Shields was accused publicly of misconduct by his deputy Stephen Lawrence and Cr John Ryan in an interview on ABC Radio.

The seven councillors yesterday signed a joint media release which dot-pointed their main concerns.

They called for any member of the public who may have had inappropriate interactions with the mayor to come forward. “This could be through code of conduct processes, our internal ombudsman, or through councillors or senior staff,” the statement said.

“Members of the community who come forward will be respected and supported,” it continued.

The group of seven jointly called upon Cr Shields to resign as mayor and as a councillor.

SOME kids across our region are eagerly awaiting a visit this weekend from the Easter Bunny while others are expecting a drop-in from the newer, Australian interpretation – the Easter Bilby.

Either way, brother and sister Bayne Jackson, 7, and Adaline Jackson, 3, hope their pet rabbit “Snowy” might put a good word in with the deliverer of Easter treats!

VOTER POLL

GOLDEN GATE OR RIVER PUNT?

By APRIL WONN ONGOING controversy surrounding the River Street Bridge project has seen a claimed backdown from the NSW government, which now intends to give Dubbo residents the choice between two new options for a third river crossing in the city’s CBD. DubVegas MP Colonel Google Sanders said he

favours a Golden Gate-style bridge which would allow residents to cross from the Westview Drive-In straight to Bunnings in Blue Ridge without having to drive through Regand Park, or indeed, anywhere else in the city.

“I reckon it’d be just awesome for y’all if you could drive straight over the city and of course we’d have freeway off-ramps to get you to the pokies at every pub and club along the way,”

Colonel Sanders told Dubbo Photo News.

“At an easy $10,000 toll for a one-way trip we’d not only pay the bridge off before 2085, but we’d also finance a fourth football stadium in Sydney.”

On the second option, a river punt to ferry cars and passengers across the mighty Macquarie, he was almost as enthusiastic.

“One great advantage of a Huckleberry Finn-

style punt is that it doesn’t matter how high the river floods, the ferry would always be on top of the water, unless it sank, which is always a possibility with these dangerous April 1 tidal currents in the Macquarie,” he said.

APRIL FOOL’S DAY

Punting on the Golden Gate

By JOHN RYAN SCOTT BARBER made the tree change from Sydney five years ago, before the COVID-19 pandemic made that idea of going so far bush fashionable.

“I just wanted to quieten things down, take a step back, do my work, but I was just getting too busy and not enjoying things, so here I am,” Mr Barber told Dubbo Photo News.

“I wanted to come back here to Dubbo. Mum and Dad were brought up here and I thought I’ll be the first one to come back and see what they were all talking about.”

His hobbies are a great combination. He’s a keen photographer and then he uses his skills on the

computer to Photoshop them.

When he saw a recent post on the Dubbo Photo News facebook page regarding one of the weather channels erroneously posting that Dubbo faced a “severe weather warning for damaging surf”, Mr Barber couldn’t resist photoshopping the well-known South Dubbo Weir with a giant wave, complete with surfer, about to crash down on the fishway.

“As soon as I saw it, I thought, I can do something with this and send it in and hopefully it’ll get a good laugh.” We published that photo last week.

That led Dubbo Photo News to ask Mr Barber if he could help us out with an April Fool’s Day prank and he couldn’t have been more enthusiastic.

“Especially nowadays when everything’s just so down and out, I think the time’s come to just have a laugh. Don’t take things so seriously and start enjoying life – you’re not getting stuck into anybody, it’s just a good laugh,” he said.

He said he’s a firm believer in the importance of humour and the fact that it can connect people who have no other common interests or viewpoints.

“Something funny can really lighten the general mood,” he said.

“You could be absolutely down, looking at your computer or flipping the pages on the newspaper and see something that just makes you laugh, and it really takes your mind off things. I think it’s a great idea.”

Scott Barber has a talent for extreme photoshopping and says he enjoys using his skills to make people laugh. PHOTO: DUBBO PHOTO NEWS

He also believes proper and respectful public debate has deteriorated in recent years.

“Everyone seems to be yes or no, or why are they doing this. What about a ‘what if’, or geez, wouldn’t that be funny to see a giant bridge

there, having the Golden Gate Bridge or a car-carrying punt in Dubbo, it’d be so funny,” he said.

“Don’t take things so seriously, enjoy yourself and maybe don’t take things quite the way they look.”

The Bell has tolled

TRIVIA TEST 1 2 3

By JOHN RYAN BARWON MP Roy Butler has slammed the state government after the Bells Line of Road – one of the two transport links across the Blue Mountains for western travellers – was closed after recent heavy rains.

He said that means all the Sydney traffic from out west will be forced onto the already crowded Great Western Highway, causing major delays right across the mountains.

“In 2007 The Nationals made a pre-election promise to build a Bells Line Expressway, citing this project was well overdue and that is was nation-building infrastructure which was key to economic growth of the Central West,” Mr Butler told Dubbo Photo News.

“In spite of being elected to Government in 2011, the National Liberal Government are still dragging their feet on building a Bells Line Expressway.

“It beggars belief that one of the two roads providing access to Sydney from the west is so unstable that it’s frequently closed to traffic. The Government has spent millions on the Bells Line including $8.4 million in the 2017 budget for upgrades and safety improvements.”

He said it’s unacceptable that the National Liberal Government has made promise after promise regarding the Bells Line Expressway and failed to deliver.

VACCINE CALL These photographs from the state government show some of the extreme damage along the Bells Line of Road.

“They’ve been in Government since 2011, over a decade, and yet we’re still sitting at the start of planning,” he said.

“They’ve managed to trump up the money for a second Sydney Harbour tunnel which shows they’re willing to spend the big bucks when it comes to infrastructure in the city; I say ‘trump up the funding and get to building the long-promised expressway’,” Mr Butler said.

“An Expressway will reduce congestion and provider safer,

more efficient and reliable journeys across the Blue Mountains to the west of the State.

“Safe and efficient road connections between Western Sydney and western NSW will be the catalyst for major development of the two areas and provide opportunities to the regions.”

Dubbo MP Dugald Saunders said he supports the work being done by the Coalition Government to duplicate the Great Western Highway.

“Improving access to our part

of the world for people travelling from Sydney is vital, as is allowing a smoother and safer trip for regional residents who are visiting Sydney,” Mr Saunders said.

“Anyone who has travelled along the Great Western Highway or the Bells Line is aware that there are improvements that can be made.

“There is a timeline in place for the project and it is part of the government’s plans going forward to make the project a reality,” Mr Saunders said.

Corruption watchdog’s leash tightened

Wello urged to get New Year ideas in

Don’t let kids miss free dental care

THE state’s corruption watchdog has been put on a much shorter leash thanks to budget cuts according to the Public Service Association (PSA), which says the ICAC (Independent Commission Against Corruption) should be able to focus on investigations rather than trying to find annual budget savings.

PSA general secretary Stewart Little said budgetary pressure means the ICAC is “hamstrung in its ability to sniff out corruption or run multiple investigations”.

“In 2021, the fearless investigator is being asked to find $3.4 million in savings for the next four years,” he said.

This comes after the ICAC was forced to find $4.7 million in savings in 2019/20, and $2.9 million in 2018/2019.

“Funding independence removes any threat of pressure from those ICAC is investigating,” he said.

GET your thinking caps on, Wellington locals!

Ideas are now being sought as to how your town will ring in the new year, with Dubbo Regional Council inviting individuals and organisations to put forward their thoughts on creating a New Year’s Eve event for Wellington.

New Year’s celebrations in Dubbo have been such a success that residents in Wellington had started asking for something similar in their community, according to Mayor Ben Shields.

Expressions of Interest for a New Year’s Eve event in Wellington close on Friday, April 16, and can be made by completing the form available from both the Dubbo and Wellington Council administration buildings, as well as the library and Visitor Information Centre in Wellington.

WITH data showing that more than 25 per cent of young children in NSW have untreated tooth decay, parents in Dubbo and across the region are urged to access Medicare-funded dental care for their youngsters.

The Australian Dental Association says untreated tooth decay can have serious and lasting impact on health and quality of life, and yet parents still aren’t accessing the dental services available to them.

The Child Dental Benefits Schedule provides $1000 worth of dental treatment for eligible children aged 2-17, but “hundreds of thousands” of NSW children, some of whom live in Dubbo and the region, are unnecessarily missing out on dental health care.

New jab won’t replace ‘flu shot: get both, start now AS the first of Dubbo’s residents start receiving the COVID vaccination, we’re being warned that it will not protect against the ‘flu – meaning we need to get both, with those slated for the later phases of the COVID vaccine later urged to consider getting their flu shot now.

Health experts are warning that the COVID-19 vaccine is no defence against influenza, but research shows more than a third of Australians aged 18-49 aren’t planning to get the flu shot this year.

This is despite the fact that it kills hundreds of people each year in a year in this country.

Experts urge those in the later phases of the COVID-19 rollout to consider getting the ‘flu vaccination now.

Anyone who needs further information on either the COVID-19 or influenza vaccines to contact their own health professional or pharmacist.

COUNCIL WATCH

Shields rejects misconduct claim From page 1

In addition to deputy mayor Cr Lawrence and Cr Ryan who spoke out on Monday, the others who joined the call yesterday were Councillors Jane Diffey, Anne Jones, Kevin Parker, David Grant and Vicki Etheridge.

At a media conference on Tuesday, Cr Shields had described the initial accusations by Councillors Lawrence and Ryan as “bizarre beyond belief”.

Cr Shields said he was “disappointed” to learn via the media of Crs Lawrence and Ryan’s intentions to call for his resignation.

“In the three and a half years I have been mayor of the Dubbo region I have always had my door open to all councillors if they wished to discuss things. In fact, I believe I’ve run the most cohesive council in living memory, effectively, of councillors working together.

“I still encourage those councillors to actually come discuss with me before running off to the media, with these concerns.”

Cr Lawrence and Cr Ryan say they did meet with Cr Shields on Monday to discuss their allegations of a breach of code of conduct regarding Cr Shields’ association with developers at the former RAAF Base site development.

“They certainly made allegations that I’m pushing development through too quickly without community consultation. Well, there’s always going to be com-

munity consultation, in fact the development applications have not even been approved, so this idea that I have pushed development through too quickly when we haven’t even done the approval yet, it is bizarre to say the least.

“In regard to Regand Park, may I point out that the very councillor who moved the final motion on Regand Park, and got his will through, was one of the councillors who is calling for my resignation. That is bizarre beyond belief.”

Doubts about his relationship with developers were dismissed

by Cr Shields.

“I will support any developers who’ve got a proposal for Dubbo.

A proposal is just that, it shows a level of economic surety that this place is going ahead. Now whether that development actually gets ticked off because of planning rules and regulations, well that’s another thing.

“There’s still a chance that the Bunnings Development or even the Regand Park idea will not go ahead, because it won’t reach planning guidelines, but it will be remiss of me as the Mayor not to welcome companies who are prepared to spend millions of dollars in Dubbo. “That is an economic guidepost saying that we are doing well in business.”

Cr Shields said the allegations are a political game.

“We are coming into a council election, there’s no doubt about that. I say to the people of Dub-

Mayor Ben Shields firmly rejected allegations against him during a media call at the Old Dubbo Gaol on Tuesday. PHOTO: DUBBO PHOTO NEWS

bo, if you want to go back to the old ways, where development was stifled, there was a club of people just seemingly blocking things for the sake of it, where bureaucracy was holding up everything, you vote for the Labor Party. You vote for the Australian Labor Party who will hold Dubbo back.

“But if you are keen to see Dubbo progress and see these great things happening, like the proof is in the pudding, you support the existing council leadership under my leadership. “This is absolute nonsense that is going on.”

Responding to Cr Shields’ suggestion that the week’s events were a political stunt, Cr Lawrence told Dubbo Photo News nine of the councillors on Dubbo Regional Council are focussed on

community and policy.

“One is absolutely fixated on political games and feeding his insatiable ego. That is Ben Shields.

For too long this community has been subject to his games, manipulation and intimidation. We are calling him. It ends in 2021.”

Cr Ryan also rejected allegations of a political stunt.

“This is not a political stunt.

Neither Cr Lawrence nor I have any ambition to be mayor. This is all about being a fit and proper person to lead the city,” Cr Ryan said.

“I swore an oath when I became a councillor. These actions I’ve taken in recent days have been extremely difficult, but no matter how difficult I will always put the residents of Dubbo first over my own comfort. The fact the elections are coming up in September means nothing to me.”

Member for Dubbo Dugald Saunders told Dubbo Photo News he would not be drawn into commenting on the issue.

“This is a matter for Dubbo Regional Council to resolve,” he said.

Dubbo Photo News also contacted Local Government NSW president Linda Scott for comment. Cr Lawrence is vice president of the LGNSW board, and Cr Shields is a director.

Disclosure: John Ryan is a member of Dubbo Photo News’ staff, but is quoted in this article in his capacity as a councillor with Dubbo Regional Council.

Dubbo schools part of feminine hygiene trial

DUBBO students will be among those to take part in a pilot program to provide free feminine hygiene products in NSW high schools with the trial being rolled out in 30 public secondary schools.

The trial will see dispensers filled with sanitary products including tampons and pads installed at schools in western Sydney and here in Dubbo for two terms ahead of a planned wider rollout across the state.

NSW Education Minister Sarah Mitchell said the proposed program aims to ensure that no female student feels unable to “fully participate in all aspects of school life because they do not have access to menstrual hygiene products”.

Foodbank delivers fresh produce to help locals in need

By JOHN RYAN

WHEN Foodbank’s giant purple trucked rolled into Dubbo it was warmly received and, according to NSW Agencies team leader Adam Loftus, that’s no surprise.

“It’s been identified by a recent government committee into fresh produce pricing and availability that... it’s really more difficult and expensive to get fresh produce in regional areas, so we help out when we can,” Mr Loftus told Dubbo Photo News.

“We’re doing a fresh produce pop-up, it’s part of Foodbank’s initiative to get more fresh produce to regional areas and over the last 12 months we’ve provided half a million meals to the Central West and this is all part of that.

The pop-up was run locally by Connecting Community Services and CEO Michelle Redden was all smiles during the visit which saw a large

number of locals take advantage of the assistance.

“Just how many people came today is indicative of how much their need is and how much this sort of help is appreciated from the community.

“We’re seeing an increase, particularly after COVID and with Jobkeeper now no longer (available), there’s an increase in people requiring everyday help, such as with food,” she said, pointing out Foodbank is a great organisation to be able to partner with.

“They’re wonderful, they’re amazing to work with, and they’re easy to work with.”

She said Foodbank is very generous and operates with an aim to make sure all donations received from farmers and different organisations are distributed to those who need it.

“It’s amazing the amount of people that they help everywhere,” she added.

Sale-o, sale-o: Dubbo landmark up for grabs THERE’S quite a bit of movement at the station when it comes to Dubbo’s CBD at the moment.

Hot on the heels of the announcement that Westpac will relocate from its well-known premises on the corner of Macquarie and Church Streets comes the listing for sale of another iconic main street building.

Perched on the corner diagonally opposite Westpac is 116-120 Macquarie Street, a nineteenth century landmark which has been put up for sale with local real estate agency Raine and Horne.

According to the listing blurb, the building “contributes significantly to Dubbo’s character and aesthetic while also providing historic value as an outstanding survivor of the 1890s”.

For sale at a shade under $3million, the building houses ten separate tenancies ranging in nature from food and beverage to retail and office space.

Michelle Redden and Adam Loftus believe so many people who are struggling financially desperately need assistance to access fresh, wholesome food.

GRIM DISCOVERY

The great Dubbo Museum Heist

By YVETTE AUBUSSON-FOLEY

A MYSTERIOUS package was delivered to Dubbo Photo News containing a confession to a theft, a detailed description of how it was carried out and the item in question: an antique Chinese 19th century opium pipe.

The typed confession explains how the person in possession of the “antique silver opium pipe for the past 45 years wanted it returned to the Dubbo Museum at the Western Plains Cultural Centre. The pipe was taken from a glass display cabinet in the former Dubbo Museum in Macquarie Street in the winter of 1976.”

The anonymous person said they smoked marijuana and had a collection of exotic pipes, deciding at the time this would be a welcome addition.

“The heist took place mid-morning mid-week, a commonly quiet time in the museum. There was no other visitor there at the time,” writes the redeemed thief.

“The person entered the museum, paid the admission price, chatted briefly with the attendant and started a leisurely stroll around the exhibits. The cabinet containing the pipe was located about 10 to 15 metres from the front door in the same hallway as the attendant’s office.

“The person examined the cabinet and found the timber-framed glass door was not locked with a key but was fastened with several screws around its perimeter. The person then devised a plan for removing and concealing the pipe to extricate it from the premises.

“A ratchet screwdriver was obtained for the purpose of quickly removing the screws from the cabinet door. An equal number of screws were obtained and the heads sawn off, A small tube of wood glue was obtained for the purpose of gluing the door shut after the pipe was removed.”

The elaborate plan was a success and with the help of a tartan lumberjack coat, “fashionable at the time”, the pipe was hidden inside the lining where the thief also had hidden the tools needed to commit their crime.

“After a bit of time perusing the exhibits, the person approached the pipe cabinet. The attendant was in her office going about her business. The coast was clear, the ratchet screwdriver went to work, screws removed, door opened, pipe and inscription card placed in coat lining, screw heads and glue removed

from coat, a trail of glue run around the inside of the door frame, door pushed closed, screw heads glued in, job done, time taken – less than a minute.

“The person then continued to have a good look around the Museum for another 20 to 30 minutes, casually admiring all the exhibits. On the way out the door the person thanked the attendant and complimented her on the quality of items on display, then promptly disappeared.”

Cool as a cucumber, theft complete.

The person alleges the disappearance of the pipe was discovered some years later when museum staff had to open the cabinet and found it secured with screw heads and glue.

“The discovery was reported in the local media at the time,” the thief wrote.

Inquest hears tragic details of Dubbo deaths A CONTINUING inquest into the 2015 deaths of a mother and son in Dubbo has heard the 74-yearold woman checked herself out of hospital against doctors’ advice months earlier.

According to reports in national mainstream media, the two bodies were severely decomposed when they were found in a Dubbo home on March 9, 2015, making the identification of an exact cause or date of death impossible, however the rate of decomposition was equal for both bodies, suggesting they died around the same time, likely a week or more previous to the discovery.

The inquest has heard that the pair had no close relatives, and that the son, who was his mother’s primary carer had found it a “challenging task” because of her high needs.

A post mortem showed no sign of trauma or indication of suicide on either body.

The mother had been hospitalised in June 2015 but checked herself out against medical advice a month later.

An article appearing in The West Australian this week reports the inquest heard the woman was severely underweight, incontinent and had bedsores. Despite being unable to care for herself, and doctors’ concerns about neglect, the hospital deemed she had the capacity to decide to check herself out.

For the last few months of their lives, nobody checked on the pair despite serious concerns for the woman’s welfare. A nurse visited the house in September 2015 but was refused entry by the son.

The inquest continues and according to reports will examine “who, if anyone, is responsible for the care of older people where they are found to have capacity to make decisions” but where serious safety concerns still exist. The public guardian was appointed the mother’s custodian for three months, but did not ever make contact.

The two cannot be named for legal reasons.

DINE AND DISCOVER

TRY A TRIKE

Peter Judd is full of praise for the Dine and Discover vouchers and he’s hoping plenty of people will use them to take a ride on his tricked-up trike.

By JOHN RYAN

PETER Judd has operated Trike Adventures for 13 years and has welcomed the four Dine and Discover vouchers, worth $100 in total, which will be available for all NSW residents above the age of 18.

“We’re part of the Discover NSW so anyone who has a Discover voucher they can use it with Trike Adventures,” Mr Judd told Dubbo Photo News.

The vouchers have been funded by the state government “We’re very pleased that small businesses like ours can be cov-

ered under this initiative and we’re hoping that with the holidays coming up that people will use the vouchers to help the economy of NSW.” Mr Judd said the Covid period was incredibly tough on micro tourism businesses such as his and this was a great initiative to help boost the economy.

“We closed down – there were no two ways about it, we had to close down. There was no interaction at all and it’s only in the last six months that it’s very slowly picking up and it could be another 18 months to two years before it gets back to what it was because

there are still a lot of people hurting out there,” he said.

“You’ve just got to grin and bear it because if you don’t get out there and do the work, the work isn’t going to come to you, you’ve got to go out and chase the work.”

He’s encouraging people to utilise both the Dine and Discover vouchers and really put some thought into the best way they can help other locals who’ve been so hard hit.

“Absolutely, and don’t forget, you’ve got $50 to spend on dining, don’t forget you’ve also got $50 to spend on Discovery as

well, so give the tourism operators like us, Readings Cinemas and some of the other places around town your support, they need it,” he said, pointing out just how much his clients enjoy tasting the wind in their faces on the back of his VW-powered trike.

“It’s the closest thing you’ll ever get to motorcycling without being on a motorcycle and people say ‘wow’ after they’ve had a ride.”

A DUBBO primary school is among those across the state to have exceeded enrolment caps while local public secondary schools’ new student numbers are significantly lower than the government-set limit.

An analysis conducted by the Sydney Morning Herald found that in 2020, local primary school Dubbo Public pushed past the threshold to the tune of 18.7 per cent, with 521 enrolments despite a cap of 439.

However, Dubbo high schools’ new student numbers remained well below the line. Dubbo College Senior Campus’ cap for 2020 was set at 1024, but the school attracted only 557 new students, or 45.6 per cent under the limit, while Delroy and South Campuses also came in under the cap.

Introduced in 2019, the enrolment caps are designed to limit out-of-area enrolments and guard against schools “poaching” desirable students from other public schools as well as aiming to reverse the trend towards under-enrolment at less popular schools.

The limits mean public schools are not supposed to accept enrolments of students from outside their area if numbers are already at or near the cap.

A Department of Education spokesman told the Sydney Morning Herald that the enrolment cap is a guide for principals rather than a specific limit on out-of-area enrolments.

The state Opposition’s spokesperson on education Prue Car said the caps had reduced parents’ options without addressing overcrowding issues, however Education Minister Sarah Mitchell is quoted as saying her government was making “incredible and historic progress” and that in the past two years, more than 30 new and upgraded schools had been delivered.

Angelo Gavrielatos, president of the NSW Teachers Federation, is quoted as saying he was not confident in the government’s ability accommodate an extra 200,000 public school students over the next 20 years.

REAL ESTATE

HAPPY BIRTHDAY

Claims landlords are struggling

By JOHN RYAN THROUGHOUT the pandemic, landlords have provided support for tenants unable to pay rent according to Real Estate Institute of NSW (REINSW) CEO Tim McKibbin who believes that despite the NSW Government again claiming it is supporting tenants and landlords, the COVID Recovery Bill instead leaves both hanging out to dry.

“Today in Dubbo, our REINSW representative met with Minister Anderson along with other local real estate industry stakeholders to brief the Minister on the local mar-

ket conditions and challenges,” Mr McKibbin said.

“It’s disingenuous for the Minster to claim, as he did in Budget Estimates last week, that the NSW Government is supporting tenants when in reality, it is landlords who have been forced to bear the financial brunt of no rental income. Most of these people are mum and dad investors who rely on their investment to pay for their living expenses or service their mortgage.

“To date, exactly zero has been provided to landlords whose rental income has diminished as a result of COVID-19, yet at the same time the NSW Government pocket-

ed more from the real estate industry in the form of stamp duty than any other January and February on record,” he says.

REINSW said when minister Anderson was asked why NSW was not providing financial support as other states are, he replied: “We did not think that it was appropriate, and the numbers did not stack up in terms of supporting landlords at that time. We thought the balance was right where we needed it to be.”

The Institute says Office of State Revenue figures show the NSW Government is collecting record revenue from the real estate industry.

REINSW CEO Tim McKibbin says the industry will keep pushing the state government for a fair go for landlords and tenants.

AFTER 25 years, the band De Ja Vu reunite this Saturday afternoon, April 3, at the Amaroo Hotel. Rhythm guitarist and vocalist Mark Byrne pursued a medical career and is travelling from the Gold Coast. Drummer Kane McLennan travelled the world on cruise ships playing in bands. Bass player and vocalist Pete Gilchrist moved to Newcastle pursuing a music career and has recently moved back.

Pete Riley, lead guitar and vocals is hugely admired in Dubbo for his musical talents. They were together only for a few

years but toured all over NSW and the pinnacle was winning the NSW Battle of the Bands in 1997 in Tamworth. Dr Mark Byrne has organised the get together to celebrate his 50th birthday. Unfortunately, John Feros who replaced Kane on the drum kit passed away a few years ago. “It could possibly be an emotional reminiscent reunion Pete Gilchrist told Dubbo Photo News. “We had a great time travelling around the central west gigging. We were like brothers.” For more information ring the Amaroo Hotel.

Boutique estate’s next stage

By JOHN RYAN

THE directors of a local land development company are concerned a headline in another media outlet last week has given potential buyers the wrong impression.

Macquarie View Partners Pty Ltd managing director Brett Anderson says the entity is a company which was formed specifically for the purpose of purchasing the undeveloped part of the Macquarie View Estate from its former owners who decided to wind up their entity as a means to pay out funds to their shareholders, some of whom are quite elderly.

Mr Anderson told Dubbo Photo News any headline which mentions “liquidation” can cause concern, particularly if there’s an internet paywall which prevents non-subscribers from then clarifying things by reading the full article.

“The purchase was settled in December, and work commenced immediately thereafter with a local development team, as the beautiful rainfall for our region has allowed,” Mr Anderson said.

He said Macquarie View Estate had been fully planned by the original owners and the new company has set a goal of continuing to build on that with ongoing beautification, landscaping, and optimising city and zoo cycleway access.

“Macquarie View Estate has committed to completing the work in accordance with the orig-

Egg-xellent Easter for Narromine youth FINDING things to occupy the kids during school holidays is always a challenge, but Narromine parents will be pleased to hear their local council will be running a range of activities thanks to funding from the NSW government.

As part of the Easter Break program, which Member for Dubbo Dugald Saunders says builds on other successful holiday break initiatives, Narromine Shire Council is eligible for funding of up to $5000 to run new or enhanced youth activities, services and programs.

The aim is to provide regional youth with opportunities to socialise and learn new skills. During a recent visit, Minister for Regional Youth Bronnie Taylor spruiked the program saying regional youth in communities hard hit by drought and Covid-19 needed “something to really look forward to”.

PLUMBING TRADE

“Pistol” Pete’s a gun on the pipes

By JEN COWLEY IT seems strangely unprofessional to address the subject of an interview as “Pistol Pete” but this friendly tradie doesn’t see it that way: “Well, that’s what’s on my truck,” laughs Peter Edwards.

“Pistol” it is then, and when it comes to plying the plumbing, the man’s a gun.

Dubbo born-and-bred, he’s been in the game for 30 years, having started as an 18-year-old at the urging of his father who wouldn’t let him leave school unless he had a “proper” job.

“I’m grateful to him for that. It’s been a good industry and it’s given me a good life – I work to live, not live to work, but I do enjoy it.”

Over three decades there have obviously been some changes, mostly in terms of the technology and the evolution of the tools of the trade, and Pete says these days he’s able to work smarter not harder.

“Things like having crimp tools instead of having to weld things, that’s made life a lot easier,” he explains, but the evolution of an easier way has a downside.

“As a result, some of the young blokes in the trade now probably don’t know how to weld, and I think that’s a shame.”

One thing that’s unlikely to change any time soon is the less pleasant side of plumbing, which doesn’t necessarily need greater explanation but is an occupational hazard of the job. So what’s the worst thing he’s ever had to do?

“Grease trap chokes,” Pete says without hesitation. “They’re the worst.”

Why’s that?

“Oh, the smell! When you pull that great greasy lump out... ugh,

“Pistol Pete” Edwards has been a plumber for 30 years and says that while he works to live rather than the other way around, it’s a job – and a life – he enjoys.

it’s rank. The stink stays with you for days, no matter what you do.”

Worse than blocked drains?

“By a country mile. Sewers don’t bother me – I’ve got used to sticking my arm down people’s drains – I don’t even think about it now after all these years.”

Not everyone has Pete’s castiron stomach, it seems, and he regales me with stories of mates in the trade who dry retch every time they have to go drain diving. He laughs heartily but I can’t help feeling sympathy for his

colleagues.

“Yeah, I’m pretty tough,” he grins Pistol Pete has had the good fortune over the years to have been taught well by some of the best in the trade.

“I’ve done all the necessary qualifications of course, but after 30 years, a lot of it is based on experience. I’ve had great mentors over the years,” he says, adding that in the past, he has paid it forward by helping to guide and train young people entering the trade

CHILDREN’S AUTHOR

Children’s author Felicity Newton and her dog Daisy with the car from “Are we there yet, Grandma?” PHOTO: DUBBO

Leaving a legacy

By NATALIE LEWIS DUBBO grandmother Felicity Newton spends her days as a school laboratory assistant and her spare time writing children’s books.

What started as a commitment to her three grandchildren has quickly become her very own enterprise, which includes soft toys, greeting cards, a calendar and a third book in the works.

“My company is called Three Little Siblings Co and my website is about to launch,” she explains.

Mrs Newton wrote her first book Are we there yet, Grandma? in 2019 after going on a road trip with her grand-daughter Ivie.

“I was inspired coming back to Dubbo from Long Jetty. We hadn’t

even hit the first roundabout and she was asking ‘are we there yet?’

By the time we got to Merriwa, I had a book written in my head.

After putting pen to paper and completing the book, Mrs Newton found illustrator Jailyn Webb through the school where she works and used Xlibris to publish the book.

Thanks to the support of friends and family and local shop The Book Connection, Are we there yet, Grandma? has sold well.

“Everyone has helped me selling them and I’ve had to reorder it three times. That’s 150 copies.”

Mrs Newton’s second book When Grandma comes to visit was dedicated to grandson Tarj and was published in 2020. It was illustrated by Mrs Newton’s niece

as apprentices.

Things have changed on the trades landscape in recent times, though.

“Back in my day there were only four or five companies with 20 blokes working for them. “Now it’s the other way around – there are 40-odd outfits with bugger all blokes working for them.

“That’s certainly changed the dynamic of the industry, but there’s no doubt that we’re all busy all the time so there’s still plenty of work to go around.”

Going into a trade is something Pete says he would highly recommend for any young person.

“Even if you don’t end up doing the trade for the rest of your life, it’s a set of skills you’ll always have.

“We’re also seeing women coming through in the trades now, which is a great thing. We don’t see it so much in plumbing here in this region, but women are really taking on other trades and I think that’s a great thing for the sector.”

Pete’s advice to anyone wanting to get into a trade like plumbing is to look at the TAFE options on offer and try to get a job in the industry “so you can work as you learn”.

“Ask around – there are some good plumbing businesses in town, but try to learn all aspects of the trade. The problem is that a lot of businesses now specialise in only one part of the trade, like roofing or whatever, so when an apprentice finishes all he or she knows how to do is roofing.

“That’s one of the things I like about this job, the fact that I get to do all sorts of jobs in plumbing and gas-fitting right across the spectrum. Every day is different and I really like that variety.”

I can’t let our conversation end without asking how he came by his nickname, other than its obvious alliterative allure. ““Pistol” is from my basketball days,” he explains, and when I comment that he doesn’t look like a stock-standard basketballer, he grins and says, “Yeah, I get that a bit, but I was a very good threepoint shooter – played for the (Dubbo) Rams here when I was 15, played for NSW and all that.

Back in the day.”

Kate Newton.

Her third book Grandma on Duty is in the pipeline for her third grandchild Nylah and will be released later this year.

“It’s an expensive hobby,” she said. “Authors are always broke.”

On a more serious note, Mrs Newton described her writing as ‘leaving a legacy for my

grandchildren.’

“It’s a lot to do with cherishing moments, cherishing your time with them. I’m just blessed that I work at a school and can have more time with them during the school holidays.”

To promote her books, Mrs Newton has attended story times in Dubbo, Narromine, Coona-

barabran, Coolah and Dunedoo, where she grew up.

“I gave a reading to the kids there, they really enjoyed it and asked lots of questions. That was a real highlight.”

While becoming a published author has been a learning curve, Mrs Newton is grateful for the support of others.

“Everyone’s been very supportive. My husband is my number one supporter, he’s my roadie, along with friends and my mum.”

Community feedback has been very positive, which is equally inspiring for the budding author.

“I’ve had some lovely feedback,” she said. “It’s a little bit surreal.

I’ve surprised myself. I’m one of those people that just do it. And if I can write, then anyone can.”

Life is a state of mind

By JOHN RYAN MARK Toomey turns 62 next month and since being a little kid playing with his mates down at the river he’s spent most of those years outdoors and wouldn’t have it any other way.

The lifelong gardener, he currently tends the magnificent gardens at Dubbo’s Holy Spirit but is thinking of retiring to easier pastures in the next few years.

“I was born in Dubbo but I ended up moving to Wellington and I grew up in a little place called Nanima Reserve which is just a couple of miles out of town. I grew up there and was always down at the river. We had vegie gardens, tomatoes and everything growing down there and that’s where I started to really like gardening,” he told Dubbo Photo News.

He’s seen the world change with many kids now glued to their dig-

ital screens and says he wished all children had the chance to grow up with a river on one side and hills to run around in on the other, with opportunities of full time outdoor fun with their friends.

“Today it’s all computers and phones and they sit around and don’t even go outside. Well back in those days we were brought up where all we did was swim, run and play. We had nothing, you know, but it was the best life you could ever have, we had nothing but we had everything.

“Family and friends were the best thing you could have. We used to run around to get some rabbits and fish to eat. It’s all changed but I used to love it when I was a young kid, what we did down there.

“From day one I knew I was a man for the outdoors and I worked on a little preschool down at Nanima with Herby Riley and I thought I loved being outdoors and garden-

ing was for me, really.”

Mr Toomey says he loves the satisfaction of looking back at his handiwork at the end of the day and feeling a buzz to see that he’s made a positive physical impact on the natural world.

“When you look back on your work it just changes your life, you know – it wasn’t there, then you put it there. The greatest gift you can give is to plant a tree you’ll never yourself see grow to its full height, but your grandkids will,” he said.

“I won’t be around to see the big Jacarandas I put in around the back of Holy Spirit here but my grandkids will see them and they’ll know that Pop grew them.”

He revels in the Holy Spirit staff, residents, their families and visitors who say how nice the place looks.

I can attest to that – my father spent the last year of his life being cared for at Holy Spirit and the

beautiful gardens surrounding the buildings brought the outdoors inside, it’s an incredibly positive and calming place.

“I’m so happy, I reckon I’ve probably got another few years of work in me and I can say I’ve put my heart and soul into what I’ve done. I look back at the places I’ve worked at and I feel proud.

He worked as a gardener with St Mary’s nursing home, then at Orana Heights Public School followed by a stint at the former Dubbo

TARONGA WESTERN PLAINS ZOO

Mud running rhino

By JOHN RYAN WHILE the humans large and small were wallowing in the Maas Macquarie Titan Mud Run, the city’s newest Black Rhino was mud bathing in a more private setting.

The female rhino bub is now one month old and has been named Sabi Star (pronounced Sarbi Star) by zoo-keepers.

The name belongs to a beautiful, rare and much-loved flower found in Zimbabwe.

The Sabi Star only flowers during harsh dry periods which keepers

felt signified the struggle for life all livings things face in the wild.

Mum Bakhita and the calf enjoyed a wallow in the mud before playfully running through puddles in their behind-the-scenes paddock.

“We all felt the name was so fitting and given the calf’s confident and curious personality, she will no doubt be a star ambassador for her species,” said Black Rhino keeper Jake Williams “Sabi Star is progressing really well and now weighs over 80kgs.

She is putting on approximately one kilogram a day.”

Budding young pollies urged to get with the program

Burrendong camp a family affair for girls and dads

ARE you a young person in Dubbo or from the region, who wants to make a difference in the political arena? We have some great news for you! The NSW Youth Parliament applications have been extended until the close of business this week, so you’d better get your skates on, but you still have a chance to be a real agent of change by putting your hand up.

The deadline has been extended until tomorrow (Friday 26) for the youth empowerment program, which brings young people in years 10-12 together to learn and connect through parliamentary education, community engagement, confidence building and teamwork. If successful, you’ll be joining a residential week-long camp from 3-10 July.

To find out more, visit the Youth Parliament website, or contact the office of your local state member.

A NEW program aimed at giving young girls the confidence and skills to play sport is being rolled out in Dubbo and the region through a partnership between the state government and the University of Newcastle.

The Daughters and Dads Active and Empowered Weekender program features a weekend of fun, practical educational activities for girls and their dads at Lake Burrendong’s Sport and Recreation Centre.

Member for Dubbo Dugald Saunders said the program is designed to ensure sport is fun and urged local families to take advantage of the opportunity.

Mr Saunders said that when dads get involved “it helps improve sport skills, confidence and self-esteem” as well as strengthening that special bond. The weekend program involves a two-night stay at Burrendong with traditional camp adventure activities.

Accommodation, activities and meals are included.

EMERGENCY REPORT NEWS OPINION AND ANALYSIS

by JOHN RYAN

Narromine smoke alarms for hearing impaired A GREAT effort from the Narromine firies – we brought you the story a couple of weeks ago how the local brigade had identified the need for smoke alarms for people with hearing impairments and how they sourced donations.

Now the last two in that batch have been installed and that means all those Narromine residents are that much safer.

Great initiatives from Station 401.

Icy cash POLICE arrested a 20-year-old man near the intersection of Macquarie and Wingewarra Streets following a short foot pursuit on March 24.

Officers will allege the man discarded about 6g of methyl-amphetamine (ice) in a car park on Holls Lane during the incident.

A short time later, detectives executed a search warrant at a motel room and during the search a further 3.5 grams of methyl-amphetamine (ice) and drug paraphernalia was located.

Officers also located more than $20,000 cash, which was subsequently seized.

The man was taken to Dubbo Police Station and charged with supply prohibited drug (indictable quantity) and knowingly deal with proceeds of crime.

He was refused bail and appeared at Dubbo Local Court on March 25 where he was granted strict conditional bail to reappear at the same court on Thursday, May 20.

ditional bail to appear before Cobar Local Court on April 24.

Dunedoo drink driver with bub LOCAL police say that at about 10.30pm on March 27 they stopped a Holden Commodore station wagon on Yarrow Street

at Dunedoo for the purpose of a random breath test. They subjected the 35-year-old male driver to a roadside breath test, which returned a positive result.

Police will allege a 17-week-old baby was observed to be unrestrained in a baby capsule in the rear seat.

The man was arrested and tak-

en to Dunedoo Police Station for a breath analysis, which returned an alleged reading of 0.178.

He was issued with a court attendance notice for high-range PCA and drive with child under six months not restrained and his license was suspended.

The man is due to face Dunedoo Local Court on April 9.

Assault charges ON March 29, a 36-year-old man attended Cobar Police Station to report an alleged assault, telling police he’d been punched in the face and body multiple times by another man outside a business on Marshall Street by a man who then fled the scene.

Paramedics treated the man at the police station for serious facial injuries before he was transported to Cobar Hospital in a stable condition.

Following inquiries police attended a licensed premise and arrested a 33-year-old man who was charged with assault with intent to cause grievous bodily harm.

The man was granted strict con-

Mudgee drug charges continue A FOURTH person has been charged following an investigation into the supply of prohibited drugs between Sydney and Mudgee. Following extensive inquiries, strike force investigators executed three search warrants at Mudgee and Rouse Hill earlier this month.

Two men, aged 31 and 36, and a 21-year-old woman were arrested and charged with drug-related offences. All three remain before the courts.

Following further inquiries, strike force investigators arrested a 33-year-old man at Mudgee Police Station on March 25 and charged him with take part in the supply of prohibited drugs.

Snr Const Paice ensured the students knew how to keep safe online and were also aware of the consequences of bullying and making threats online.

Junior students were educated on keeping safe in school and in the community as well as advised about safe places and people who they can approach with concerns.

Senior Constable Paice also introduced a new resource to students – a QR code which can be easily scanned to report online abuse.

“It’s important to engage all students to make them aware of their rights and responsibilities,” Snr Const Paice said.

“Young people are using social media platforms and are not often aware of the consequences of their actions.

“Education is key in helping young people make the right choices.”

BANK CLOSURES

Dubbo Westpac on the move as others shut

THE future of one of Dubbo’s most iconic CBD buildings is up in the air following a recent decision by Westpac Group to “co-locate” its local branch to the St George Bank premises further down the city’s main street.

The move comes as part of an announcement by the major banking group that 48 of its branches around the nation will be shut down, while others will be amalgamated.

As reported by a number of national media outlets, the closures will impact the jobs and livelihoods of some 165 staff across the national branch network.

While the process of redeployment is proposed by Westpac, the Finance Sector Union (FSU) of Australia said last week that “redundancies are also likely in many locations”. National secretary of the FSU Julia Angrisano took aim at the “big four” bank for “deserting its customers”, saying that the shutdown of branches will particularly disadvantage older customers.

Lithgow’s Westpac branch is also being co-located, while Orange and Bathurst’s branches remain unaffected for now.

The building in which Dubbo’s Westpac bank is currently housed has long been a landmark in its CBD location on the corner of Macquarie and Church Streets, so Dubbo Photo News will be keeping an ear out for news of the next chapter in the building’s history.

ARTS FUNDING

IN BRIEF

Funding boost for youth arts programs

By YVETTE AUBUSSON-FOLEY THE NSW Minister for the Arts Don Harwin announced in Dubbo on Tuesday that Dubbo Regional Council would receive $89,000 every year for the next three years.

“Today I’m announcing the result of a local councils project funding round which is open to all councils in NSW,” Mr Harwin said.

“It’s there for the NSW Gov-

ernment to recognise excellence amongst the arts and cultural activities in local councils. There will be 17 councils recognised across the state, sharing in about $1.4 million in funding and Dubbo Regional Council will be one of them.”

Dubbo will receive $89,500 per year for the next three years to support cultural activities for children and young people including Black Box Creatives and Mini Makers at the Western Plains Cul-

tural Centre.

“I think this is fantastic that the program has been put forward and they certainly deserve to be recognised. There’s no better investment that a council can make than in fostering a love of arts and culture amongst children and young people.

“I know this will be valued by the community and it’s why the NSW government program exists so that we can have this kind of cultural excellence in the regions

and around the state. We believe every community deserves its fair share of the arts and culture funding,” Mr Harwin said.

The 17 funded projects are expected to generate more than $10.4 million in direct economic value across NSW in goods, services and jobs. It is estimated these projects will reach an audience above 958,000 people, involving over 5300 artists.

Teachers walk off the job over state government’s staffing policy THE trend for teachers to walk off the job citing concerns over staff shortages has expanded from Walgett to other parts of the state.

NSW Teachers Federation members at Darlington Point Public School near Griffith last week walked off the job over the state government’s failure to properly staff schools in rural and regional areas.

NSW Teachers Federation Deputy President Henry Rajendra said the school is constantly struggling to attract and retain teachers to fill vacancies.

“Over the past decade the NSW Government and Department have weakened previously successful processes that ensured adequate staffing of all schools across the state,” he said.

“The Education Department has known of the dire teacher shortage for some time but failed to address the problem. It is grossly unfair for students, and in many cases, those with the most complex learning needs.”

VOLUNTEER OF THE MONTH

YOUNG VOLUNTEERS WITH RUNS ON THE BOARD Emily Atlee, Amelia Orth and Charlotte Wallace are proof you’re never too young to volunteer your time to help grow a community sport and make a difference to the lives of other people.

The teenagers are involved in the local Master Blaster cricket program for girls which has just completed its second season.

Volunteer Master Blaster coordinator Lisa Hunt said during the first year of the program in 2020, she noticed her helpers Emily and Charlotte, were like “magnets” to the little girls enrolled in the program.

“It’s really cute to see but we noticed that was most important. You’d see them during the netball season running up to Emily and Charlotte as well, so they really looked up to these girls as their role models.”

Emily and Charlotte play weekend cricked in the RSL Colts mixed team and have done so for several years.

Volunteering to support the Master Blaster program and introduce girls as young as seven to the sport of cricket has been a great experience for the trio.

Emily, 17, said she is very passionate about cricket.

“I have brothers who play, and I played three

years ago for three years, and now have taken on the volunteering.

“I feel like we’re closer to the age of the girls participating in the program, so they can relate and understand on our level.”

There are 75 players participating in the sixweek comp, but more are always welcome.

“I’ve been playing for about five or six years, so I just grew up with the cricket community and volunteering in Master Blaster was a natural fit. I know a lot of people involved,” 16-year-old Amelia said.

“We help umpire matches and help the little kids learn play the game of cricket and help them have fun.”

To maintain the engagement and keep fun levels high, the program is run a lot like backyard cricket.

“We crank up the music and the girls can do cartwheels and dance in the field,” Mrs Hunt said.

“It’s really fun coming down here. All the girls really love coming down here and playing and dancing, and it’s great to see how many girls actually join in.”

Without volunteers the grass roots program would not survive. Mrs Hunt hopes there will be enough players to form a proper

Former Dubbo woman and now Sydney 6ers player Emma Hughes also drops in on the program volunteering her time as a mentor for younger players to look up too.

“They think she’s pretty awesome. She’s a role model because she’s on the television.

All the older girls definitely make an impact.”

Twenty-seven-year-old, Sydney woman, Hannah moved to Dubbo last year, bringing experience playing grade cricket in an all-girls competition in Sydney with her.

“There’s a vision, if we can keep it going. We’ll start it

again next season in the start of Term 4. We’ll stick with the little girls Master Blasters, and feed through to a comp with the hard ball and the pads. That’s our aim to get to a proper competition, like the boys do,” Mrs Hunt said.

Through the mentorship of young volunteers like Emily, Amelia and Charlotte, and a local commitment to growing the game, the 2020/21 season saw a program start for High School aged girls along with a girls only team formed at a local club with some of the girls who first gave cricket a go in the program during the 2019/20 season.

Collaboration brings Wiradjuri garden to life DUBBO residents and visitors from around the region will soon be able to enjoy the beauty of a new public space while also paying tribute to our First Nations traditional owners, with a culturally significant garden underway within the botanic gardens.

A partnership between Dubbo Regional Council and the state government will see the transformation of a parcel of land in Elizabeth Park to establish a unique area that will add an important perspective to the precinct.

The Wiradjuri Garden will feature a range of native plants, sandstone yarning circles, sheltered areas for gathering, a fire pit and a rainbow serpent focal piece created entirely of native plants.

A competitive tender process saw local business Dubbo Landscaping awarded the job of delivering the project, on which it will work with Indigenous community

groups LeaderLife and Indig Connect.

More than ten Aboriginal people have contributed on site, undertaking activities including major earthworks, top dressing, turf laying, planting, edging and paving.

Three Aboriginal workers will partake in maintenance for the next 12 months, and two of the workers have commenced their Certificate III Horticulture course.

Council’s community consultation and a collaborative approach are important elements of the new garden project, according to Director of Liveability, Skye Price, who said the outcome of a local contractor working with local Aboriginal enterprises will be “a true representation of culture, community and collaboration”.

The project will cost approximately $1.2 million and, weather permitting, is scheduled to The new Wiradjuri Garden, which will be part of the already popular Elizabeth Park in East be completed by May this Dubbo, has seen a collaborative effort between a local contractor and community groups.

Gill and Ash put your family first in their business Dubbo Friends Auto Care owners Gill and Ash both have young families, so they genuinely appreciate the importance of a properly serviced car for running kids around town, but even more so, when planning to take them on a family roadtrip like over the Easter school holidays starting next week.

Dubbo Friends Auto Care on McKenzie Street can help as they offer a full range of professional car repair and maintenance services.

“It’s for peace of mind. There is always a lot of traffic on the roads at Easter time and when it comes to the safety of your kids you can’t compromise. Family, always comes first,” Gill said.

Gill says they treat every vehicle like it belongs to a good friend because of their shared belief in what they do today affecting their tomorrow – and the tomorrow of their customers.

Gill and Ash have a hefty 16 years of experience between them in the auto repair industry, spent mostly in Melbourne, Victoria, working for leading brands and dealerships.

After moving to Dubbo however, Gill immediately saw the potential for raising his young family here.

“It took me just one month to fall in love with Dubbo. Melbourne is good, but like any big city you have to travel one hour to get anywhere. In Dubbo it’s five minutes

to everywhere and I like having the extra hours in the day to spend with my family.

I’m not going back to Melbourne, I love Dubbo now,” says the dad of a beautiful 14-month-old daughter.

“I like Melbourne but it’s better to live here.

It’s a great place to raise kids,” Ash said.

And play cricket!

Both are regular faces on the cricket pitches of Dubbo too, and are currently members of one of the city’s top teams, South Dubbo United.

Off the pitch though, the types of services Gill and Ash offer in the spacious workshop include brake pad and fluid levels check, vehicle diagnostics, transmission, maintenance, tyre rotation including tyre tread level checks, logbook servicing, all types of mechanical service and pink slips.

You can stay in touch with the business through their Facebook page, by phone or on email.

Walk-ins are welcome, but to secure a booking, please call 02 5806 0360.

“If we are free, we’re happy to do the work on the spot. If a customer is happy to wait here, they can wait in the office or we’ll arrange transport for them to their work or home,” Ash said.

Courtesy is a big part of Gill and Ash’s approach to business, and they look forward to welcoming you to their Dubbo Friends Auto Care family.

MURRAY-DARLING INQUIRY

Basin water market probe results final PEOPLE across the region who are interested in water issues will be eager to read the contents of the final report from The Australian Competition and Consumer Commission’s (ACCC) inquiry into the Murray Darling Basin Water Markets which was released last week.

In 2019, the federal government commissioned the public inquiry, asking the consumer watchdog to recommend options to enhance markets for tradeable water rights, including options to enhance their operations, transparency, regulation, competitiveness and efficiency. The report, which makes 29 recommendations, looked at the governance, architecture and operation of the basin’s water markets.

A statement released by the government says the recommendations are wide ranging and with around 90 per cent involving coordination with Basin states, it will require unified action from all levels of governments to consider and implement the recommendations.

By YVETTE AUBUSSON-FOLEY INTERACTIVE media displays and upgrades to the Old Dubbo Gaol’s exhibition space to expand displays of the extensive collection of historical items were officially launched on Tuesday.

NSW Minister for the Arts Don Harwin was in attendance to help open the latest upgrades, which have been jointly funded by Dubbo Regional Council and the Create NSW’s Regional Cultural Fund.

“The Old Dubbo Gaol refurbishment project has been designed to create an improved visitor experience with enhancements to the State Heritage listed buildings, including the replacement and refurbishment of a large majority of the exhibitions,” Dubbo Regional mayor Cr Ben Shields said.

“Many of these exhibitions required replacement as they haven’t been replaced for more than 20 years,” he added.

The upgrades also include enhancements to displays and the use of more modern tech-

nology to tell the stories of the lives of the gaol’s inmates.

The total project cost is $1.39 million, with $809,725 funded by DRC and a further $600,000 from the NSW Government’s Regional Cultural Fund.

“The Old Dubbo Gaol is one of the most culturally significant heritage sites in regional NSW,” said Mr Harwin, who helped unveil the latest upgrades.

“Listed on the State Heritage Register, it holds artefacts of national significance within its collection of more than 600 items, and I am delighted this project has been supported through the NSW Government’s Regional Cultural Fund,” he said.

Some of those artefacts include the largest collection of hangman ropes in Australia, and the original hangman’s gallows.

The upgrades will preserve these historically significant items, with new display cabinets allowing even more artefacts to be displayed to the public.

By NATALIE LEWIS IT’S a case of better late than never for members of Wellington VIEW Club who are preparing to celebrate their 50th anniversary in their 51st year.

“It was meant to be our 50th celebration last year but we couldn’t have it then,” secretary Kerry Baird explains.

Like many 2020 events, COVID-19 was the cause of the cancellation.

“It had quite an effect on everyone.”

Members have not let the delay affect them too much and have invited national VIEW president Anne-Louise O’Connor as their guest of honour for the upcoming event.

“Five of our founding members will also be there,” Ms Baird said.

Her own mother Muriel Baird was the organisation’s inaugural president, but sadly passed away earlier this year. Many of the members have been involved for several years and have forged close ties with one another.

“Ladies that have been there for a long time develop a strong bond with each other. Most are drawn by the friendship, fellowship and philanthropy.”

Ms Baird said the club’s focus is the Voice, Interests and Education of Women (VIEW).

“We raise funds to send to The Smith Family to educate disadvantaged Australian children to help them and their families,” she said.

“That’s our main aim. The money is used to pay for school uniforms, books and other essentials.”

Think: About your choices. Call Gambling Help 1800 6343 636.

Ms Baird believes that it’s important to keep funds local.

“We hear of people supporting overseas students but there are children in need in Australia too.

The Smith Family has strict protocols that the money is spent on the child which is a blessing. It gives them an opportunity that they wouldn’t have had normally.”

Ms Baird said Wellington VIEW Club is a small group but they enjoy their monthly meetings.

“It’s a friendly atmosphere. We have a monthly lunch, raffle and

door entry and people support it well.

“There’s fellowship, raising funds for a good cause and we are also enjoying ourselves – going out for a nice meal and conversation, and helping to support students.”

The VIEW Clubs of Australia Wellington Club’s 50th birthday celebrations will be held at the Wellington Soldiers’ Memorial Club at 11.30am on April 20. New members are welcome.

WHEN Sophia Rouse and Henry Redden were married in Wellington, nature favoured their outdoor ceremony by conveniently raining in adjoining paddocks and leaving the bride, groom and guests untouched.

The very happy couple then honeymooned on Daydream Island and despite massive rains along the east coast, they enjoyed unabated sunshine while they were away.

May it always be so.

BUSH TO BODY BUILDER

How heart break inspired a man from Narromine to transform his life

By LYDIA PEDRANA AS a young boy born and bred in Narromine, Ben Handsaker, now more affectionately known as AbStacker, was an active kid.

He began soccer at age four, took swimming, running and motocross lessons and played competitive sports at a regional and state level.

After completing his high school years as a boarder at St Joseph’s College in Sydney, Mr Handsaker studied Commerce at the University of Sydney.

By now, his passion for sports and fitness had dwindled as his love for a good social life took precedence.

In fact, he described himself as becoming “an overweight Aussie party guy with a carefree attitude.”

That was until an episode of heartbreak hit.

“I had my eye on a girl at university who had all the guys after her, because she was smoking hot, a real stunner,” Mr Handsaker, now 33, recalled.

“We had a couple of brief chats and I thought she might have liked me for my personality, so one night at the university bar, after a couple of drinks, I worked up the courage to ask her out on a date.

“Little did I know that all my university mates, and the whole bar, were watching with great anticipation.

“We got chatting and five minutes into the conversation I mumbled, ‘umm, would you like to go out for lunch or a movie, on a date sometime?’

“She stared at me, shocked beyond belief, then she hit me with, ‘I would never date a useless, fat sh*t like you!’”

Hoping to be swallowed by the ground beneath him, Mr Handsaker was overcome with sheer embarrassment as his peers all watched on.

“I started to sweat, then my heart broke right there on the spot,” he said.

“I felt helpless and ashamed.”

This was more than just an unfortunate teenage rejection encounter for Mr Handsaker.

Instead, it was a major life turning point.

Now admitting that it was the wakeup call he needed, the very next day he joined the local gym and began training.

“I wanted to prove to her wrong and to make sure that no one would ever speak to me like that again,” he said.

“I was able to start changing my life and turning it around in a matter of years.

“I went from a guy who was called a ‘useless, fat sh*t’ to recently being crowned one of Australia’s top fitness models.”

Today, Mr Handsaker is the polar opposite to the chubby, carefree, Commerce student in the university bar.

 Focus on the journey not the destination. Who you become by achieving the goal is more important than achieving the goal itself.... 

He is now the head personal trainer at Bondi’s popular Beachfit gym, a motivational speaker, award-winning fitness model, Australian Musclemania champion, ultramarathoner and author of three best-selling fitness e-books.

In 2013, he took out the title for Make Fitness Model Champion in both Australia and Asia Pacific, in 2014 he won the top prize in the Men’s Physique and Overall sections at the Australian Musclemania Championships and was awarded the first ever Australian model pro card, and in 2018, he was crowned the World Beauty Fitness Fashion model champion.

Meanwhile, he has modelled for top brands including Nike, Aussie Bum, Men’s Health and Under Armour, appeared in more than 50 fitness magazines around the world and been the cover boy of four.

Last year, Mr Handsaker ran

three marathons and two ultramarat hons and raised $70,000 for the Mov e m b e r men’s health initiative.

A staple (and unmistakeable) figure around Bondi Beach, Mr Handsaker is often spotted training on the esplanade or at the outdoor beach gym.

In fact, it was there that he earned his iconic nickname, Abstacker.

“It came from the infamous bodybuilder and social media sensation, Zyzz,” Mr Handsaker explained.

“I was training with my shirt off on

Bondi beach and Zyzz came up to me and said, ‘wow, your abs are stacker... Abs-Stacker!’ and from there, it stuck.”

He has now created his own brand around the AbStacker title and uses it as his stage name when competing.

With a strong focus on mindset, Mr Handsaker lives by the motto: win the morning, win the day.

His philosophy is centred around persistence and consistency.

“Habits are what shape our lives,” he said.

“Form good habits which are hard to do, and you will have a beautiful life.

“More importantly, you need to do the work on the days you don’t feel like it.

“Focus on the journey not the destination.

“Who you become by achieving the goal is more important than achieving the goal itself.”

And while those sentiments are inspiring, the fitness fanatic said his transformation from “fatness to fitness” hasn’t all been smooth sailing, confessing that he has been plagued by demons along the way.

“It was not some fairy tale, it was real life, which has its ups and downs, smiles and frowns,” he admitted.

“Many people have seen my rise from fat to fitness model champion from the outside, but they didn’t see what happened on the inside.

“I nearly didn’t make it; I went down the wrong road for a while.

“I had to battle with my addictive personality and sel f- dest r uc t ive party lifestyle.

“Worst of all I had to crawl out of a deep dark hole of depression, but thankfully, I was able to

beat it.”

Today, the Abstacker continues to do eight weight training sessions per week, mixing in strength, conditioning and body building.

He also runs and swims once a week and is currently training to run four back-to-back marathons in 24 hours.

Also, on his to-do list is to positively impact one million people.

He plans to do this through his new website, an upcoming iPhone App, his personal training work, speaking gigs, competitions and social media.

Often asked for advice on how to get into shape, Mr Handsaker’s advice is simple: “please just start.

“Start with the simple and easy wins,” he said.

“This might be cutting out soft drinks and reducing alcohol, then get moving more, start adding in 10,000 steps per day or going for a 30-minute walk.

“I would also recommend going to bed earlier and waking 30 minutes earlier than you normally do and use these 30 minutes to do some form of exercise to start the day.

“Once you start the day with exercise you will have more energy and you will win in the morning “Win the morning, win the day.”

Now, you might be wondering whether he ever saw that girl who incidentally sent him on a life-changing journey again?

Indeed, he did.

“It was a beautiful Australian summer day, and I was at an outdoor music festival, my shirt was off, and I was in very good shape with a six pack,” Mr Handsaker recalled.

“I was wearing sunglasses and just standing with a few mates, waiting for the next music act when a girl turned to me and said, ‘I think you’re hot, can I get a photo?’

“I looked around and realised who it was, but she didn’t recognize me.

“I slowly pulled down the sunglasses and said, ‘Remember me?’

“Her face was priceless, she looked like she’d seen a ghost.

“Calmly I said, ‘Thank you for changing my life,’ then I shook her hand and proudly walked away with the biggest smile on my face.”

Having forgiven that girl a long time ago, Mr Handsaker believes that one heartbreaking encounter taught him a valuable lesson he will stand by for life.

“We all come across people in our lives that will abuse us, hate us, hurt us or even disappoint us,” he said.

“Never regret meeting a single person in your journey.

“If they weren’t part of your destination, they were part of the way to get there.”

THE TOONS’ VIEWS

Timber shortage a complicated problem The Editor, I would like to comment on the article “Timber Troubles” in March 25-31, 2021 Dubbo Photo News.

The article contains some considerable exaggerations and suggestions of things that Could’ happen to the building industry. For example, (former NSW Premier) Bob Carr is not solely responsible for the decline in some forestry towns. It is more complicated than that.

Whether taking timber from the Goonoo and Pilliga is manageable is debateable. There are environmental consequences to threatened species that rely on these forests like the Mallee Fowl, Glossy-black Cockatoo and woodland birds such as the Speckled Warbler. They need trees other than pines.

The milling industry at Baradine showed that demands were too high and smaller and smaller trees were being harvested to meet quotas.

Some pine goes into products other than planks or frames for houses. It is chipped, used in composites or paper products, or oils.

Only the last product is available

in Dubbo.

It is the less common cypress that is white-ant resistant.

The slow growth of the forests makes the claim by Mr Kilby of sustainable forestry at the rate that he suggests somewhat impossible.

Chris Owens, Dubbo

Singer sings praise for The Salvos Dear Editor, I have had the absolute pleasure of working with The Salvation Army for the past few years. I have been lucky enough to visit many communities across Australia with The Salvos, all of which were incredibly special and memorable.

As another Australian summer has passed, and after seeing the bushfires in my hometown of Perth recently, I wanted to share my experiences from last year with The Salvos, a story which came full circle.

2020 started with the devastating black summer bushfires. Hard working Aussies who had spent their lives dedicated to their homes and land, saw them destroyed by the disaster. In late January 2020, I joined the Salvos with a special

mission to visit and help some of the communities that were fire-ravaged. Experiencing this impact first-hand was incredibly confronting and heart-breaking.

The wider community of Batemans Bay so graciously allowed The Salvos and I into their town to see and hear about the devastating impact the disaster had on them. Although I had seen the news coverage, nothing came

close to the real thing.

Whilst speaking to these strong people, I was reminded of how resilient and selfless Australian people are.

I will never forget the conversation I had with a man who was experiencing the mental health impacts of the traumatic fires. He said he feared he would never be able to enjoy a sunset or sunrise again. Within seconds, a mem-

ber of The Salvos team took him aside to listen to his story and give him some words of encouragement; something so simple yet so powerful.

The incredible people of The Salvation Army dedicate their lives to making people feel safe and heard.

Technology, big projects on Narromine’s horizon Cr Craig Davies ❚ OPINION NARROMINE Shire is on the cusp of a significant growth trajectory. Very few houses are available for sale and the rental market has tightened up over recent months.

Our jobless rate is still very low, and the signs are there for considerable growth in the coming years.

Narromine Council has prepared as well as possible and in terms of our actions and understanding we are well in front of the curve.

Our focus on development and investment in the shire has brought about many enquiries and the activity is becoming frenetic.

Many people will remember the announcement in July of the likelihood of a Vertical Take Off and Landing (VTOL) vehicle being tested and further developed in Narromine. It is our understanding that could well take place this month with AMSL poised to take the next step and bring the project to reality.

Designed specifically for Medi-vac operations the vehicle will be able to fly quickly to emergency sites for patients to receive treatment hours in advance of current operations. The next vehicles will be for transport and will have the ability to travel at 300km/h with six passengers on board.

It is this level of technology that will be a big part of the future of Narromine Shire.

Along with the medivac vehicle, discussion has also taken place with Korean interests to base a drone in Narromine for Geological Survey work. This 11-metre-long vehicle will house technology be-

Last month, Dubbo Photo News ran a large feature showcasing many of the gems and opportunities Narromine has to offer and there are plenty of them. This week Narromine mayor Cr Craig Davies gives us a glimpse into the strategic future direction of the shire.

It can then project its results onto a screen in four dimensions to allow geologists to determine the existence of minerals and/or water. We are very hopeful of the discussions with our Korean friends recommencing immediately COVID is beaten and inbound flights resume.

The shire has taken numerous other enquiries for blocks at the aviation precinct where these industries will be housed, and they all bring a level of technology previously not seen in rural regions of

Siding Road, the existing Sydney rail line, the Mitchell Highway and the Macquarie River.

It is one of the largest projects on the Inland Rail and will become a feature of the Shire into the future.

Council has a strong focus on developing a significant freight hub attached to the Inland Rail. It will have connectivity to the NSW country network giving the shire rail access to places as far away as Perth and Darwin.

Trains loaded in Trangie can move significant loads to Brisbane or Melbourne along with all sites attached to Inland Rail and the three NSW ports.

Our strategic location and coming logistics operations will open up opportunities that will transform the shire in the coming decades.

Along with all the investment opportunities occurring across the shire, our blocks at Sky Park have finally been gazetted, opening up the remaining 20 blocks on the aerodrome for sale.

These blocks are all between 1600-2800 square metres and are zoned to allow hangars in the back yard with direct access to a taxiway and onto the runway.

Already 43 homes have been built on this unique site giving aviation enthusiasts the ability to house their own aircraft in the backyard and fly as it suits them.

The blocks will sell like hot cakes at between $102,000 to $170,000 each with most around $120,000.

It truly is an incredibly exciting time to be the mayor of the Narromine Shire and play a part in the direction we are moving. It’s also a great time to invest in the shire as our reputation grows daily.

Cord Blood Research is the National Project of Inner Wheel Australia with members over the years having raised $3million for research into conditions such as leukaemia, cystic fibrosis, heart disease, stroke and other autoimmune diseases.

If readers would like to contribute, they can still do so by either walking or donating, information on how to do this is available through the Inner Wheel Australia National Project website and follow the prompts to the walk.

The Young Generation Inner Wheel Group would like to thank everyone who supported the walk. If you would like to join or find out more about the group contact 041700156 for further information.

MEMBERS of the Inner Wheel Club of Dubbo and others had a fun morning when they joined together with the Young Generation Inner Wheel Group for Sean’s Two for Ten walk. Named in honour of a young man who, as a two-year-old, was the recipient of cord blood treatment for a rare genetic disorder, Sean’s Two for Ten walk saw a nationwide event for which people walked two kilometres with a friend for a $10 donation. The aim was to raise $30,000, with proceeds from the event helping researchers develop cures for various cancers and immunological diseases.

Locally 20 Inner Wheelers joined the walk, only to discover that two kilometres actually felt more like four, according to our sources! However, everyone made the finish line then enjoyed

Mansion in the sky OUR spider friends have been building some spectacular mansions, over Summer and now into the cooler months. They are easy to spot on early morning walks, as Dubbo Photo News Sports guru, Geoff Mann discovered.

Better to find and admire them with your eyes in the day, then with your unsuspecting face in the dark of night!

Stormy skies: Local snapper Steve Cowley captured the turbulent skies above Dubbo late last Thursday afternoon as a massive storm cloud rolled in across the city to dump up to 30 millimetres of rain into the gauges.

Women’s Assembly “chooses to challenge” AFTER a hectic series of events across the city to mark International Women’s Day (IWD), the team at Dubbo’s unique social impact organisation The Exchange rounded out the week with a special Women’s Assembly for a day’s exploration of this year’s IWD theme, Choose to Challenge.

The program comprised a jam-packed smorgasbord of presentations, panels and open forums aimed at inspiring and empowering women from across a wide demographic, with a special guest line-up of local women each of whom had a unique perspec-

tive and story to share.

Panellists included a number of well-known local female founders and community leaders, and special keynote speaker was journalist and author Georgie Dent whose honest and open discussion of her journey to mental ill-health and back captivated and deeply moved her audience.

The spirited question and answer session and networking continued as the day wrapped up with drinks in the stunning surrounds of The Exchange’s reception and co-working space, sponsored and served

by The Commercial Hotel.

Jillian Kilby facilitated a discussion with Local Leaders panellists Lucy Samuels, Lucy Taylor, Jane Diffey and Joh Leader

Who’s who at the Zoo Ball: Funds raised for local wildlife hospital AFTER initially being derailed by a global pandemic, the long anticipated and much planned inaugural Taronga Western Plains Zoo (TWPZ) Ball finally went ahead earlier this month in the heart of the zoo at the recently opened Waterhole Café precinct, and it seems the wait was worth it with the night raising $180,000 to help staff and equip the zoo’s new wildlife hospital.

Guests from across the region and the state gathered under perfect warm western skies to not only ‘frock up’ and come together for the first time in far too long thanks to Covid-19 restrictions, but to hear more and learn

about the extraordinary wildlife conservation efforts and programs being undertaken right here in the heart of western NSW. World-renowned didgeridoo master Lewis Burns and fellow Wiradjuri elder Aunty Di McNaboe moved many in the crowd to tears with their emotive welcome to country, accompanied by a troupe of traditional dancers who treated the crowd of 170 people to a celebration of Indigenous culture.

Entertained by oneman band Pete Riley, guests dug deep to support the wildlife hospital after hearing from Taronga’s CEO, Cameron Kerr, Taronga Western

Left: Accomplished local musician Pete Riley was in fine form as he entertained guests throughout the evening.

Plains Zoo’s director Steve Hinks and senior TWPZ vet, Benn Bryant, about the vital role the new hospital will play in supporting, caring for and saving wildlife both here and around the planet.

The organising committee, chaired by Jen Cowley and consisting of locals Fiona Nash, Matt Wright, John Walkom and Steve Hinks, was thrilled with the evening and its outcome, and said while the money raised is most welcome and will be vital to the running of the hospital, the evening was also about education and engaging the community and its leaders with the zoo’s wildlife conservation efforts

Right: Accomplished local artist Laura Holland-Dunkley’s portrait of the late, great Lazarus – which she painted throughout the night – was auctioned in support of the wildlife hospital.

Big crowd makes tracks to The ‘Tree with Rotary AFTER twice being postponed due to the pandemic, the Rotary Club of Dubbo Macquarie’s long anticipated Tracks @ The Tree live music muster finally went ahead earlier this month at the Armatree Hotel.

Nearly 300 people made tracks to hear tracks from 11-time Golden Guitar winner Felicity Urquhart, supported by fellow golden guitarist Brad Butcher and popular local muso Brad Haling.

Rounding out the night and getting the crowd on

its feet for a last hurrah before the return train to Dubbo left the Armatree station was Johnny Cash tribute artist Daniel Thompson.

Despite nature throwing the whole gamut of weather conditions at the day – including a dust storm and a rain scud – the crowd’s enthusiasm never wavered, and the Rotarians were able to raise an impressive $18,000 to support the work the club does in supporting regional communities.

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.

HOCKEY

Masters in the Bush a great success Far left: Tracey Hardie-Jones playing what seems to be water polo with a stick

By GEOFF MANN Photos by MEL POCKNALL DUBBO Hockey Club attracted players from all over the State for the inaugural Women’s Masters in late March.

Organising committee member Tracey Hardie-Jones says the teams included many Australian and NSW players over the three days.

“It was such a relief after Covid and bad weather to get the event happening and was such a success we plan to make this an annual fixture. We’ve already had teams booking in for our second Masters” Tracey smiled.

“Our focus is on growing the sport and to achieve that we need a second turf so this tournament has gone a long way to showing council the drawing power of hockey,” she added.

A highlight of the weekend carnival was the Dash for Cash.

“It was a lot of fun! Gabbie Welham from Sydney was the outright winner.”

Tracey described The Masters in the Bush as “a huge success for the newly elected Dubbo Hockey Board”.

“We received very positive feedback from our visitors as well as the local community. Those who travelled to Dubbo commented favourably on our country hospitality,” she said.”

Dubbo’s teams played solidly with the Division 2 side beaten in the semi-finals.

CRICKET

11 “Whitneys” for Colts quartet!

By GEOFF MANN Photos by MEL POCKNALL “RYANO”, “Coxy” and “Morto” joined Wes Giddings as eleven-time winners of the Dubbo First Grade Whitney Cup trophy last Saturday.

Jason Aryan, Brad Cox and Chris Morton have all captained RSL Colts to premierships in their colourful careers while Wes moved to Second Grade Pennington Cup to play with his son Cooper this season.

The trio claimed another night cricket-Whitney Cup double with an easy win over defending premiers CYMS at No 1 Oval.

The red and whites continued their season long form with a comprehensive 7-wicket win over the Cougars. Colts captain Marty Jeffrey played a match-winning hand, unbeaten on 59 when his team passed CYMS total of 9/126.

Jeffrey’s innings was built on a flying start by Josh Smith (21 from 20) and Mitch Bower (16).

It backed up Grand Finals specialist Ben Taylor’s 4/23 as the Cougars collapsed after a promising start when Ben Strachan (43) and Tom Coady (33) had shared a 48 run stand for the first wicket.

In Second Grade, minor premiers Souths decimated Newtown for just 78. Dharmendra Mepani tore through the Newtown batting lineup to claim 5/25.

Macquarie came from third to upset Newtown. After ripping the Ti-

21 Ducks for Championship laps By “QUACKER” DESPITE swimming extraordinarily well, Lilah Naden broke her time in the final of the 25metre Freestyle and opened the door for Glen Smith.

“Lilah has had the handicapper busy in the past few weeks and he was sharpening his pencil again the morning,” Judy Walsh told Photo News.

“The two Bibs”, Robert Dickerson and Rob Rich also cashed in on a fast-flowing pair to take the honours in the Breast/ Breast Brace Relay. Max Naden

and Ron Everett were looking to go back-to-back but were “just a bit too keen”!

“Last week they stopped the clock on zero but on Sunday the adrenalin kicked in,” she laughed!

Unfortunately for Rob, being in the lane next to six-yearold Mia Uebergang in the final of the 25 metre Backstroke proved catastrophic. The veteran Duck’s pride kicked in as he tried to outswim her and he broke his time! Mia was all smiles when she was told that she had won (Ed: and so was

her nan, Judy).

“Mia has been swimming with the RSL Community Swimming Club this season under the guidance of Jocelyn Beazley and Lyn Moses who both do an excellent job with all the kids,” Judy commented.

The Ducks will not be having a "structured " swim on Easter Sunday, however there will be a few paddlers at the pool for a casual dip before the new season commences on April 11.

2021/22 will start with the Blues Meats Monthly Trophy race.

DESPITE the disappointments of last year, Dubbo Touch has celebrated the return to Open competitions with 57 teams competing over eight grades in the Mixed and 25 teams across five in the Men’s.

The sport has had an amazing evolution since the barefoot and cotton t-shirt clashes, complete with kicking when teams blew out the cobwebs on Sunday mornings in 1975.

One of the most pleasing developments has been the development of referees and match officials across Mille Wright and Angus Rose Krystal Laughton Harley Pearse all ages. Some play the game, others retain their interest post-playing while there are some who just enjoy being involved despite having never played.

While only a small number will be heading off to the Nationals in two weeks, Mark and Sarah had encouraging words for all those

who participated.

“For some it was their first State titles so the experience will be invaluable as their careers progress.”

Dubbo Speedway drivers best in two states

By GEOFF MANN

Matt Vicary and Chris Blyton drove down for their first foray into Victorian speedway and came home triumphant! PHOTO: SUPPLIED

CHRIS Blyton crossed the border to Mildura and “stole” the Victorian Production Sedans title just two weeks after fellow club member Wayde Burgers had broken through for his first NSW Fender Bender championship win at Gunnedah.

Chris is a second generation racer and race-car builder who relished the opportunity to cross the mighty Murray and lap some of Australia's best drivers Sat night.

The 33-year-old mechanic’s long haul south paid off at Timmis Park Speedway when he held off Queensland’s Joel Berkley and Stephen Laidlaw from the home state to lift the prestigious trophy.

After a pitched battle on a moisture laden track where the lead changed several times, the last several laps were frantic. Doc Bailey and Horsham’s Steve Ellis dropped out after a spectacular crash on lap 15. More drivers ended their challenge early as they tried desperate-

ly to position themselves in winning lines but it was the boy from up north who prevailed.

Chris told Dubbo Photo News he’d never been to Victoria and almost didn’t make it to the Mildura race meet.

“It was a last minute decision to go down there, I’m so busy at work and have too many jobs to do,” he said, ”I’ve got five speedway cars to do before June 30.

“I always like doing a few big shows every year and because of COVID-19 we missed a lot of our races last year.”

Mr Blyton spoke about the race at the presentation.

“I looked at the track from the start and I knew that the pole line would work for me. My car worked great down there. I’d say it was the best it has ever felt.”

He says it was a thrill to win.

“It hasn’t really sunk in! I decided to go down because I’d never been to Victoria and the Mildura track was one of three tracks where

I’ve always wanted to drive. Now I’ll look to take my car and title to the Perth Motorplex and Hi-Tec Oils track in Toowoomba.”

Chris and his “crewey” Matt Vicary were on their own.

“My partner and daughter were in Newcastle at a cheerleading event and dad missed travelling with me for the first time because he had injured himself,” Chris mused.

Another feather in the cap came when Chris and Matt were awarded the Best Presented Car. “That was a huge honour because it’s judged by the Scrutineers on the day for compliance and appearance. Matt deserves a lot of praise for the way he looks after all our cars,” he said.

“To go down and beat the best in the country, it’s pretty cool to be a Dubbo guy and put Dubbo on the map.”

There’s plenty of great speedway action coming up at Dubbo’s Morris Park on the Easter weekend.
