MICROMADNESS

By YVETTE AUBUSSON-FOLEY IN the hands of local Phil Priest, pictured during Clean Up Australia Day, are visible bits of plastic fished out of the Macquarie River or from its banks. It’s tinier pieces of plastic called microplastics however which can be so small as to be almost invisible which are now found in the food chain and, at the end of last year, in unborn babies. The dangers of microplastics is the reason Wambangalang Environment Education Centre, Western Paddlers, Dubbo Environment Group, the Dragon Boaters and the Dubbo RiverCare Group have signed on with the Australian Microplastic Assessment Project (AUSMAP) to conduct a local study and attempt to understand the scale of this pollution in our local environment.

Funding for Basin communities MURRAY-DARLING Basin communities in the Parkes electorate are set to benefit from more than $8 million in grants under the third round of the Coalition Government’s Economic Development Program. Parkes MP Mark Coulton said Bourke, Brewarrina, Collarenebri, Mungindi, Narromine, Warren and Walgett will all benefit from the funding which will help to strengthen and diversify their local economies. “Communities in the Parkes electorate have great ideas to grow and prosper and these grants will help get those plans off the ground, delivering innovative and practical projects that will have an enduring positive impact. “Each of the projects selected to receive funding so far under Round 3 will help communities by using local suppliers and resources as well as through local knowledge to drive the best outcomes for our region.”

By JOHN RYAN UNLIMBER those vocal chords and practise your breathing, the Central West Vocal Academy is now open. Whatever your music, whatever your age; rock, pop, musicals, country or classical, Central West Vocal Academy will help you sing your favourite songs better and the staff are welcoming students of all ages and stages in both Wellington and Dubbo. Wellington-born Hugh and Irish-born Anne Marie Francis recently made a massive tree change, relocating to this region from the northern hemisphere af-

ter having successfully combined teaching commitments with performance careers on the stages and concert halls of London, Paris and New York amongst others. Both singers, Anne Marie and Hugh met while studying at Manchester’s Royal Northern College of Music in the UK in 2002. Anne Marie subsequently spent three years as Company Principal at English National Opera in London singing many major roles, while Hugh spent two years on The Royal Opera Covent Garden’s Young Artists Programme. They have since enjoyed freelance solo careers singing and performing on many of the classi-

cal music world’s greatest stages. Anne Marie grew up on a farm on the beautiful West Coast of Ireland near Louisburgh in County Mayo, about an hour’s drive north of Galway. She previously studied in Dublin and worked in Human Resources before taking a career break to concentrate on singing full time. Hugh worked in sales and marketing for the aviation industry, studying singing privately in Sydney and competing in Eisteddfods, before heading to Manchester. His great grandfather, Herbert Ramsay, was the first person to sing Waltzing Matilda at the North Gregory Hotel in

Winton in Queensland in April 1895. Later this year Hugh will sing the role of Loge in the forthcoming Opera Australia Wagner Ring Cycle in Brisbane. Tutors don’t get much better qualified than that, so whether you’re 16 or 60, wanting to audition for a role in your high school musical, brush up that song from your youth, or recently retired and looking for something new, this could be the sliding door you’ve been wanting to walk through. Solo, group and online classes are available. For further information email: centralwestvocal@gmail.com

Sins of our plastic past By YVETTE AUBUSSON-FOLEY THE microplastic study efforts of Wambangalang Environment Education Centre, Western Paddlers, Dubbo Environment Group, the Dragon Boaters and the Dubbo RiverCare Group members have been taking place at Sandy Beach and Troy Reserve. Trained in March and equipped by citizen scientist organisation, the Australian Microplastic Assessment Project (AUSMAP), the volunteers’ results will paint a picture of Dubbo’s localised plastics pollution problem. “Now that we’re all trained, we can train others and anyone is welcome to join,” Western Paddlers member Bron Powell said. Every effort counts, as

the 326 million plastic pollution conscious people would attest who signed up to Australian-based initiative, Plastic Free July, last year. Plastic Free July encourages people to be part of the solution to reducing plastic pollution by not buying it in the first place. As pictured on the front cover of Dubbo Photo News today, students from Carlton House Child Care Centre and Preschool are getting in on the act by refusing to use plastic plates or cups. Dubbo Regional Council is also encouraging residents to sign up to the challenge. “Plastic Free July is a perfect way to work on reducing the waste we would otherwise be sending to landfill. We’ve supported Plastic Free July over the years but in 2021,

` The challenge during this transition will be to rethink plastics – not blindly repeating mistakes from the past... a – Florian Graichen, General Manager Scion Forests to Biobased Products

Council is really stepping up its involvement to bring the community together on the issue of waste reduction,” DRC Manager Resource Recovery and Efficiency John Wisniewski said. The thinking behind the initiative is to see a world free of toxic plastic. AUSMAP says plastic

pollution is regarded as one of the world’s most pressing environmental issues despite industry giants like India’s Adani and Taiwan’s Formosa Plastic Group ramping up their efforts to flood the global consumer economy with even more single-use plastic packaging. “Most of the plastics we know and use today are derived from fossil carbon (oil, coal and gas) – this common source determines their structure, design, features or way of producing. Just like the stone age did not end because we were running out of stones – the fossil age will not end because we are running out of fossil resources,” Scion Forests to Biobased Products general manager Florian Graichen said. “We will use materials that are environmental-

ly and economically sustainable. We are at the beginning of a transition to alternative – renewable – sources of carbon. Instead of digging deeper into the ground and using more fossil carbon (and accelerating climate change) – going forward our liquid fuel, plastics and chemicals will come from three sources of renewable carbon – from recycled products, capturing and utilising atmospheric CO2 or as discussed here from biomass. “The challenge during this transition will be to rethink plastics – not blindly repeating mistakes from the past. Changing the plastics feedstock will require re-thinking design, manufacture and use of plastics. It will require value chains and networks that we are not seeing yet.”

AUSTRALIA Post is marking 2021 NAIDOC Week and its theme, Heal Country!, by launching new packaging that includes a dedicated space for the inclusion of traditional place names for customers who wish to recognise country on their mail. The organisation is also reflecting its ongoing commitment to celebrating First Nations culture by wrapping a number of its street posting boxes in indigenous artwork with a design created by Darwin’s Marcus Lee of the Karajarri people. Australia Post’s national indigenous manager and Noongar man Chris Heelan said the move to provide room for traditional place names on satchels comes after being approached by First Nations Gomeroi woman Rachael McPhail, and has come about as a direct result of customer feedback. “We not only listened to Rachael, but to the overwhelming feedback from thousands of Australians who supported this fantastic concept to recognise traditional country on their mail”, Mr Heelan said. “Including the traditional place name as part of the mailing address is a simple but meaningful way to promote and celebrate our indigenous communities, which is something Australia Post has a long and proud history of doing.” Ms McPhail was delighted by Australia Post’s move to build upon her idea and encouraged Australians to expand their knowledge of indigenous heritage and start including traditional place names when sending letters and parcels. “This is about paying respect to First Nations people, and their continuing connection to country. If everyone adopts this small change, it will make a big difference,” she said. The newly-designed Parcel Post and Express Post satchels, which also include an Acknowledgement of Country, have a nominated line below the recipient’s name to include a traditional place name above the street address and postcode. Traditional place names can also be used on letters, provided they appear above the street address and postcode.

Street Tree Planting budget misses the falling axe for now

REPRESENTATIVES from the SOS Trees Dubbo group sang the praises of Mayor Stephen Lawrence and councillors Vicki Etheridge and John Ryan for amending a recommendation by Dubbo Regional Council administration on Monday, June 28, which proposed reduce the Street Tree Planting budget from $682,000 to $100,000. “The amendment is such an important outcome for both our tree canopy and the River Bus that is so strongly supported by our community,” an SOS Trees Dubbo spokesperson said. The amendments included a recommendation that council continue to support the River Repair Bus ($45,000) for a further 12 months and request officers identify a funding source as a part of the September 2021 quarterly budget review. Secondly, that council notes the significant reduction in the Street Tree Planting Program ($680,000 down to $100,000) which is necessary to maintain a sustainable and balanced budget. Thirdly, that council maintain its support for the Street Tree Planting Program and request officers to identify savings in the September 2021 quarterly budget review that may be allocated to the program.

Donna’s Boob-boos Donna Falconer’s battle with breast cancer has been well documented in the pages of Dubbo Photo News over the years but in recent months the tireless awareness-raising campaigner has been cruising Queensland in her Groovy Booby Bus to spread the message far and wide. And while the “groovy” traveller is keeping ahead of Covid outbreaks, visiting many more isolated and remote communities, she’s also enjoying weather far warmer than the current cold snap keeping Dubboites inside with the heating. Donna is travelling with her mate Viv Dawe from Bellmere in Queensland, and the pair is grabbing attention wherever they go just by being there, and in the stand-out Groovy Booby Bus. Here are some excerpts and photographs from her social media journal so far:

June 3 ANOTHER full day. It doesn’t matter where we park, we always attract attention. Last night we stayed in a small park with only about 10 other vans, however we started the conversation with two lovely fellow travellers and gave them books, again leaving our mark (or book) at the park’s book exchange. Then while driving around the centre of town in Home Hill, we pulled up at an intersection and a lady was walking my way waving, so I wound down the window and she said, “Hello Donna from Dubbo!”. She then proceeded to tell me she knew all about me, as she was from Dubbo too and her name was Carol Tink. Next, it was on to Ayr where

we had our morning coffee and it found us meeting, chatting and giving out more books to the girls at the Gudjuda Deck Cafe. A must do when in Ayr is a visit to the Ayr Nature Display (there are over 60,000 specimens artistically arranged on coloured backgrounds) with a wonderful informative explanation of displays by Lorraine. Then off to explore the main street and also Lorraine’s husband had said we must have a look at the cemetery where you can see some of the most amazing headstones and plots as the area had a lot of Italian cane cutters. Again lots of roadworks, so lots of tooting and waving. As it was near lunchtime we saw a sign to Giru so decided to turn in and found the home of one of the

many local sugar mills and Viv smiled at a crocodile. We enjoyed our lunch in the little park. Then it was on to Townsville as we pulled off to take a photo with the Big Croc, I received a message from ex Dubbo Resident the lovely Kerry Storey who offered us a

shower and some power at their Harley Davidson Dealership. I haven’t seen Kerry for some 20 years when our children went to school together before they moved from Dubbo. Kerry offered us a ute so we could explore Castle Hill and its amazing view and The Strand which is the beautiful waterfront. We then called in to Kerry and Mark’s apartment and Kerry sent us home with a homemade beef stroganoff for dinner and some yummy slice to enjoy.

June 10 THIS morning before we got the wheels rolling we had a lovely chat to Carmen, Phil, Lilly and Sylas from Nowra. They’re on the road for four months and currently heading to the Top End. Carmen said she had been looking for a book to read so I was glad to give her a copy of My Time. Her mum was a breast cancer survivor and she wanted to send her mum photos of Groovy. Then we said thanks and goodbye to the Mount Carbine Caravan Park and Nikki, who is very breast aware as she was a rehabilitation nurse and also has a very strong family history. She said she never misses her mammogram appointment. Nikki was another beautiful, extraordinary person we have met as she is the Good Samaritan nurse for the area.

Event funding open

Today’s morning tea stop was at the Palmer River Roadhouse, another book left.

June 11 LAST night as we were setting up, our neighbour Di came over for a chat and wanted to take Groovy’s photo and was delighted to get a book! This morning we headed down the main street where we started a chat with Nerida from Sydney who wanted photos of Groovy

and was happy to receive a book. While waiting for a shop to open Ned from Brisbane came up asking to take a photo as he had seen the bus a couple of weeks back and had told his wife and wanted to show her we’d been up here as well, so we gave him a book to pass on to her. Next we took a steep climb slowly up to Grassy Hill look-out for 360 degree panoramic views of Cooktown, the Endeavour River and the Coral Sea. Here I also chatted to a fellow survivor. After exploring the magnificent botanic gardens we enjoyed a morning coffee with a beautiful view listening to the birds as we sipped! A short but bumpy drive we found Finch Beach. We didn’t know when we booked but the Cooktown Expo started tonight until June 20. The town is booked out, so we cruised

up and down the waterfront doing what we do best tooting and waving. We decided to get some fresh local prawns, fresh bread rolls and of course a bottle of bubbly and head back to the caravan park as it was windy and the clouds were building – interesting, Google said five per cent chance of rain, however two locals had told us it was going to rain as the clouds were coming over the mountains! We spent the afternoon chilling in the van listening to the light rain on the roof.

June 12 TODAY just before leaving the lovely Cooktown Caravan Park, we met Bron (a survivor) and Michelle and had a lovely chat, then time for our last quick lap of the foreshore tooting and waving, we fueled up and when I went in to pay Christine said, “Are you

screening? I need to start having (mammograms). I am over 50.” I told her to call 13 20 50 and gave her a book. Time to head back South, we pulled into a lookout and fellow travellers came over. Jason and Jason gave us the thumbs up and loved our stubby holders. Marilyn also came over to say hello, then Glenda came over to say she had already booked her next mammogram. Our destination today was Kuranda, a beautiful spot (set amid) the rainforest. our neighbours were Steve and Kerry. A beautiful lady, Melinda, called over – she was diagnosed in 2019 at 47 – she has finished her treatment now. We chatted for half an hour. She is to here do some work placement. We then had a visit from Janet Spigge from Orange. Tonight we are parked up in the rainforest.

Bye bye, Yum Yum! End of an era as Peet family calls time By JEN COWLEY IF you’ve spent any reasonable amount of time in Dubbo, there’s a better than even chance you’ve at some point had at least one lunch, smoko treat or takeaway dinner from the iconic Yum Yum Bar at Orana Mall. If not, you don’t know what you’ve missed, but missed it you have. Because last week the muchloved business’ shutters came down for the very last time, bringing to its end a slice of Dubbo history as rich as the Yum Yum Bar’s famous caramel pie – lovingly made by Annabel Peet’s own hand pretty much every working day for more than four decades. Even on the day we visit – the café’s last in its current incarnation – people with frantic looks on their faces are placing orders for what they fear may be their last little taste of this iconic homecooked heaven. The Peet family has held the reins of the café since 1984, but Annabel was behind its counter from day dot when the mall slid open its doors for the very first time in 1979. “I’m the only person left here at the mall who was here the day it opened,” says the feisty matriarch, who worked for original owner Max Heather from that first day as his manager until she and her husband Ron purchased the business five years later. Their son, Russell, was a tender nine years old at the time. He took the baton from his parents 21 years ago and has continued the family business ever since, ably supported by his mum, his sister Suzanne Roberts, and generations of loyal staff. Covid restrictions and mask mandates notwithstanding, we found the Peets as customer service focussed on their last day of trade as they have always been, making it difficult to get them standing still together for a photo and an interview amid a constant stream of well-wishers and hungry patrons. It’s a bittersweet day for Annabel, who has 42 years of memories inexorably tied to the Yum

Annabel Peet – ﬂanked by son Russell Peet and daughter Suzanne Roberts – was behind the counter at the Yum Yum Bar on the Orana Mall’s very ﬁrst day of trade in 1979, and is the last of the original “inhabitants”. After feeding generations of hungry locals since taking the reins of the renowned business in 1984, the Peets have hung up their aprons for a well-earned break. PHOTO: DUBBO PHOTO NEWS/STEVE COWLEY

Yum Bar, including many with her husband Ron who died five years ago. “We’ve had such beautiful staff and beautiful customers – we have people who come here every day for a cuppa and to read the papers, and they’re wondering what they’re going to do,” she says. “We’ve seen so many staff come through here,” Suzanne adds. “We’ve been through their births, deaths, marriages, they’ve gone off to university and gone on to have their own careers and family. “We’ve made friends with customers and they don’t want us to go, but it’s time – time for family.” Russell’s decision to take a

break wasn’t taken lightly, but he has no regrets. “I love what I do, and it’s quite likely I’ll look at doing something similar maybe on a smaller scale sometime in the future. For now, it’s more about family time.” Over the years, food tastes may have come and gone and evolved, but one thing has remained constant and is widely acknowledged as underscoring the Yum Yum Bar’s longevity in a mercurial industry. People still hanker for good old-fashioned home-cooked food. “Mum still does all the homemade cakes and slices, and of course the (caramel) pies,” Russell says. “And we’ve always prided ourselves on the freshness and

quality of our food – old fashioned food and service.” Over the course of the past 42 years, the Peets have seen other businesses come and go through the mall, and have themselves moved locations a couple of times. They’ve been through a healthy handful of centre managers, and have watched the nature of retail wax, wane and shift over the decades. Annabel in particular has noticed the change. “Once upon a time, we all knew each other – there was a real sense of community. Now, we barely know who’s who. It was a more personal place before, but times change and that’s fine too.” Like any family business with a long history, the Yum Yum Bar and the Peets have been through the good times and bad. “We’ve had droughts and dust and floods – we’ve had our store a foot under water at times – and then the storm in 2001 (which caused extensive damage to the mall) – and now Covid,” says Russell, adding that in fact, the cloud of a global pandemic ultimately held something of a silver lining. “We were shut for five weeks and that opened my eyes to how much time I haven’t spent with my family. “It was nice to meet my kids by the time they turned 16,” he jokes, but the serious aspect to the comment is clear. “It used to be that the only late trade was on Thursday night. “Saturdays we used to all close at 12, and you’d leave then and go and play cricket. “You had Sundays off to be with family and do things at home or with friends. “Now we’re open seven days a week, and often for extended hours. It’s just constant. “And with the costs associated with those long opening hours, that’s why very often you have to be the one standing here yourself. “It’s time to try to get some of that family time back, and it’s thanks to Covid that I realised how precious that time is,” says Russell, but the last word belongs, as it should, to his mum Annabel. “There’s more to life than working seven days a week.”

Stressful housing, more stressful without NEW data from the Australian Institute of Health and Welfare shows the proportion of social housing has declined across Australia just at a time when rents and house prices are surging. From 2014-2020, the proportion of social housing households has fallen from 4.6 to 4.2 per cent. Kate Colvin from Everybody’s Home says that decrease spells major trouble for many Australians living in housing stress as well as those currently experiencing or on the brink of homelessness. “Social housing has historically played an important role providing a safe, secure place to call home to those locked out of the private housing market,” Ms Colvin said. “As more and more people on low to middle incomes are being left behind by rising rents and house prices, the need for social housing in Australia has never been greater. We need the proportion of social housing to grow, not decline.” “Homes that ordinary families can afford are critical infrastructure (inclusions) for every community. With a home everybody has the ability to live, work and raise their families. But surging prices and low vacancy rates mean a place to call home is increasingly out of reach for many Australians.”

IT’S A RECORD! When American couple Beth and Rick Hutchinson welcomed their son into the world on June 5, 2020 – several months ahead of schedule – he was so small that he could fit into the palm of one of their hands. Weighing a mere 340g – about one-tenth of the average weight for a full-term newborn – the initial prognosis for Richard Scott William Hutchinson was far from optimistic. The good news is Richard recently marked his first birthday (pictured), and Guinness World Records took this milestone as an opportunity to officially recognise him as the most premature baby to survive. When first born, Richard measured only 26cm long from head to toe. He was born at a gestational age of 21 weeks 2 days, making him 131 days premature.

Hell’s Heaven’s Bells By JOHN RYAN WHEN the bells at Dubbo’s Holy Trinity Church tolled in unison with a world-wide celebration of the bicentenary of the Ellacombe-Chimes, there were plenty of locals on hand to witness the historic moment. Titled Bells, Smells and an Organ Recital, Holy Trinity’s bells rang out at noon on June 26 as part of a global wave of bell-ringing that began in New Zealand and followed the sun westwards around the world to finish 19 hours later in Vancouver, Canada. The event linked more than 130 churches representing several different Christian denominations in nine different countries to celebrate the 200th anniversary of the invention of the Ellacombe Chimes. Holy Trinity parish priest Brett Watterson said it was a wonderful day with internationally-acclaimed organist Michael Deasey playing the newly purchased organ at the church. Michael Deasey is best known as the longest-serving organist and choirmaster at Sydney’s St Andrew’s Cathedral. He also spent ten years as organist and director of music at Bathurst’s All Saints’ Cathedral and has held similar positions in both the UK and Canada. In 2005 Michael was awarded the Medal of the Order of Australia (OAM) for services to Church music, and ten years later was made a Fellow of the Guild of Church Musicians. In 2019 he was awarded a Fellowship of the Royal School of Church Musicians. His recital on Sunday afternoon included Concerto in D-minor (i. Allegro, ii. Adagio, iii. Allegro) by John Stanley (1712-1786); Prelude on the Welsh Hymn Tune Rhosymedre by R Vaughan Williams (1872-1958); Toccata in F-major by J S Bach (1685-1750) and Priére by Malcolm Archer (b.1952). Lew Hitchick from Bathurst’s Anglican News put together a history of the bell-ringing apparatus and it makes for interesting reading. The Ellacombe Chime System was invented in England by the parish priest at Bitton, near Bristol, the Reverend Henry Thomas Ellacombe, to allow the ringing of church bells by a single operator rather than a team of bell ringers. It was widely used in church-

es in Britain and throughout the world in the 19th and early 20th centuries. Unlike the traditional method of bell ringing, where the bells are rotated through 360 degrees (full circle ringing) to sound them and one person is needed for each bell, the bells are kept static (or “hung dead”) and a hammer is struck against the inside of the bell. Each hammer is connected by a rope to a fixed frame in the bell-ringing room. When in use, the ropes are taut and pulling one of the ropes towards the player will strike the hammer against the bell. To enable full circle ringing to also take place in the same tower, the Ellacombe Chimes’ ropes must be slackened, to allow the hammers to drop away to enable the bells to swing freely. Thomas Ellacombe created the system as an alternative to using his local ringers so that he did not have to tolerate the behaviour he saw as unruly. The Reverend Ella-

combe was the editor of the bell ringing column of a church periodical called Church Bells and was often critical of the behaviour of bell ringers. A particular target was “prize ringing”, where teams from different churches competed for a prize for the best ringing, usually accompanied by a social event. An example was in 1875, when he weighed in with a diatribe against a ringing competition at Slapton in Devon. He wrote, “We blame the vicar and churchwardens for allowing the bells to be so prostituted for the benefits of a publican’s pocket.” In more recent times on this side of the world, Ray Tickle has pieced together the timeline for the Holy Trinity bells and bell-tower, which were erected and installed as a memorial to those from the parish who served in the Great War 1914-1918. The tower and bells were hallowed by George Merrick Long,

Joy Austin, Ken Phillips and Lillian Austin

That rings a bell: Ted Austin inside the belfry.

Bishop of Bathurst on December 17, 1922. The peal consists of eight tubular bells suspended on a timber frame; originally the bells were struck by pulling down on ropes; however in time the ropes were replaced with steel wire connected to a crude keyboard, this enabled the bells to be rung by just one person standing on a platform about eight metres below the frame. “In the mid-80s I was asked to meet a man from England and show him the bells at Holy Trinity. This man had a registry of church and public bells in Australia and wanted to inspect our peal of bells,” Mr Tickle said. “At that time the only bell which was rung was a middle bell rung

to alert people that a church service was about to commence. The man from England climbed the 160-year-old ladder to the upper platform on which the bells were mounted, taking out a small wooden mallet he struck each bell and announced that these bells were not cast in Wollongong, indicating that they were good bells worth preserving.” Mr Tickle said at that time the bell ringing apparatus was in a poor state, cracked or missing hardwood strikers, all the ropes except one were broken, bolts were missing, and all the wires stretched or missing. Added to this the bell-tower had been home to a flock of pigeons for many years. “As I liked the sound of the bells, I set about repairing them.

Headspace boost

Through our eyes WHAT began as a school project has morphed into a heartfelt book for Tate Luckensmeyer. ‘Through Our Eyes’ is the final product of what started as her 2020 HSC major work and is made up of the stories of nine farmers in the Central West, utilising her skill with watercolours to illustrate the short stories. Tate told Dubbo Photo News that what was originally intended for educational purposes has now grown into a glimpse of the hope held by Australian people during terrible trials. ••• Tell us a bit about yourself: I was born in Dubbo and have lived here my whole life; my parents were both born in the United States and moved to Australia separately before they met. I went to Dubbo Christian School from K-12 and graduated in 2020. I’m looking to be a freelance illustrator in the future after doing a Bachelor of Visual Communication Design. Where do you live? I live on a 25 acre block out of town – not a farm, but my great grandparents were some of the ‘cotton pioneers of Australia’. They moved from the US in the 1960s to farm cotton in Wee Waa. My dad also moved from the States at a young age and then grew up on one of those cotton farms. So I have a big appreciation for farmers and all the amazing work that goes into every crop. How did you view the recent longterm drought from a teenager’s perspective? While I wasn’t directly affected, things changed for us on our little property. Things like super short showers and not as many loads of washing were things that we did for a long time. Even then, we were very well off. The biggest indicator of the drought for me was the dust. I just remember it being everywhere, all the time. When I started researching the drought for this project, I fully realised how hard it was for people on the land. What was the creative process behind coming up with an idea for your HSC major work and when did that project morph into a book? I chose to do Design and Technology because I knew I wanted

to build something, but when we got to the major work, I played around with several other ideas that just didn’t stick. My idea for a book started as a children’s picture book about endangered species of animals. I wanted to combine my growing love for watercolour painting with an important global (or national) issue. I was reading kids’ books in the school library and Jackie French’s book ‘Drought’ stuck with me. Bruce Whatley’s illustrations in that book sealed the deal for me. He is a huge inspiration to me as an artist and I love his work with Jackie French. I wanted to create something with a similar message of hope through adversity. I then started researching the drought and found a news article made up of farmers’ experiences of the drought. And that’s when I decided to combine illustrations with farmers’ stories. Having so much family out of the country was also a contributing factor – I was able to centre my target market around people who had no real understanding of the drought in Australia. Most of the planning was done during the COVID lockdown. How did you go about getting it published – talk us through that process? I actually never intended to publish this book, I thought I’d just submit it for assessment and be on with life but people I showed it to prior to submitting it encouraged me to take it further. I used an online publishing company called Blurb – they make lovely high quality photo books among other things, and I was really happy with the end result. What I’ve published recently is the same book I submitted as my HSC major work, with a few minor changes. What sort of reaction have you had? I actually got a Band 6 which was a huge encouragement to me as well. I’ve had a large amount of people interested in pre-ordering copies of their own. I think people value the real-life experiences that these farmers have shared, and the presentation of both the low and high points of the drought. What did the people in the book think about it? The people in the book are actual-

By JOHN RYAN DUBBO’S youth population will have improved access to mental health services with the local headspace office sharing in almost $2 million in Commonwealth funding. Regional Health Minister Mark Coulton welcomed the grant, which will be used by the Western NSW Primary Health Network to employ two youth advocates (peer workers) for Dubbo’s headspace centre.

ly all friends of family, and people I’ve known for most of my life. It was great to be able to acknowledge them, and their experiences. Everyone was so helpful and wrote some really amazing pieces for me. I was also so honoured that the local Little Big Dairy were happy to take part in it and share a little bit of their experience of the drought. How important do you believe it is, in this age of 10-second social media concentration spans, to be able to get these sorts of important messages out into the public arena in such an easy and simpleto-read way? I think it’s so important! I think we can get so caught up in the fast-paced, quickly changing nature of social media that it’s hard

to catch a break. I wanted to curate something that represented the drought and the people in it, in a way that could be read with intention – truly valuing the people that contributed to this project as well as the many others that experienced the worst parts of the drought. I really love how books can capture a glimpse into a certain period of time – and I’m so grateful that others have seen the value of that as well. It has been a true honour to work alongside these farmers. The book has been printed in very limited numbers. If anyone is interested in purchasing a copy, you can go to Tate’s website: www.tatealuckensmeyer.com

“Headspace Dubbo has been experiencing high demand for services, and this funding will help them expand their service, reduce wait times and develop a sustainable peer workforce,” Mr Coulton said. “As a result, young people across the region will have improved access to high quality, youth-friendly mental health support.” Assistant Minister to the Prime Minister for Mental Health and Suicide Prevention David Coleman said headspace provides free or low cost youth-friendly support in four key areas: mental health, related physical health, substance misuse, and social and vocational support. “Headspace offers a safe, welcoming place where young people can get non-judgmental professional help and peer support, so they can tackle their challenges in a way that is right for them,” Assistant Minister Coleman said. The funding is part of the Government’s $152 million investment in the headspace Demand Management and Enhancement Program, to reduce wait times and make capital improvements.

UPLIFTING WOMEN

Chemical-free care By NATALIE LEWIS JENNY ROBERTS wants to uplift women and reduce their environmental impact, all with the help of a discreet little pack. Her idea to sell washable sanitary products formed many years ago, with the aim of promoting self-care during menstruation and beyond. It’s now become a full-time gig for the former aged care worker who says caring for people comes naturally. “I just wanted to uplift women at that time of the month,” she said. Miss Roberts was formerly the Dubbo representative of Days for Girls International, an agency providing washable pads for women in third world countries. “I stepped down from that last year,” she explains, adding that she spent a couple of years researching the idea before starting her own non-profit organisation Mae it Flow. Her aim is “to provide products, knowledge and develop self-care practices to women of all ages, cultures and economic backgrounds; to support through their monthly cycle, nurturing themselves and the environment”. Miss Roberts admits to being “old

school” when it comes to her period products, and spoke to many other women before launching the enterprise. Making the pads more environmentally friendly was a key factor as she explains that disposable items are 90 per cent plastic and take up to 100 years to break down. “That was definitely a driving force,” she said. “The (volume) of chemicals they contain can seep into your system and can cause cramps.” Miss Roberts said natural products bring many more benefits than their manufactured alternative. “I’m trying to take a non-toxic, non-chemical approach to self-care. “People are becoming more conscious, there’s a societal shift. If it were natural products, it would reduce your cycle by 2-3 days. It’s great to reduce that chemical build-up.” The washable sanitary products are made from organic cotton and are 100 per cent Australian made. Visit maeitflow.org for more information. FUN FACTS: z Women have their period for 3000 days z They use 12-17,000 sanitary products in a lifetime z That’s 120-150 kg of pads per woman

Trial addresses period poverty FREE menstrual products will be available in Dubbo as part of a pilot program offering tampons and pads to students. The State Government trial covers 16 local schools, as well as 13 in the Western Sydney area. “Unfortunately it’s a bit of a taboo topic but the NSW Government is committed to

helping young girls through this difficult time,” Dubbo MP Dugald Saunders said. “Unfortunately it’s a fact that ‘period poverty’ exists in Australia but with the development of healthy norms and practices in school, young girls can be supported and educated when it comes to the emotional and physical changes that occur.”

The trial is the ﬁrst of its kind and will ensure young girls have access to the products they need when they need them, even if that is at school. “I’m thrilled Dubbo gets to play a role in this inaugural trial and I know principals will provide valuable feedback to assist with a broader rollout across the State.”

A VERY HANDY MAN

Jack of all trades By NATALIE LEWIS HANDYMAN Brendon Brown moved to the Wellington area for a tree change and is loving the lifestyle. “I decided to get a better work, life balance,” he explained. “I’ve loved moving here, it’s been great so far.” Mr Brown grew up in Sydney, which was followed by a move to Goulburn and then to the local area last year. “The service I offer is carpentry and there doesn’t seem to be many of us around in Wellington,” he explained. Hailing from a family of carpenters and builders, Mr Brown is a jack of all trades. “I did plumbing for a few years, I can do plastering, gyprocking. I have 25 years’ experience as a carpenter. I worked for my brother for many years.” Mr Brown comes from the school

of life and is skilled in home maintenance and repairs, working across a range of areas. “There is such a variety of work available and a lot of it I teach myself – fitting door locks, doing tenancy repairs on rental properties, building and construction work.” He recently refitted a stock truck with plywood and is currently transforming a school house into a cottage. Mr Brown takes great pride in his work and loves being self-employed. He firmly believes in doing a good job with quality tools. “You need a big variety of skills but a few decades in the building industry has helped me turn my business into what it is.” Mr Brown is getting lots of jobs and is enjoying every moment. “I’ve loved moving here and getting the work that’s thrown at you. It’s been a really good experience. I’ve also got freedom, I like it out here.”

Leif Tweedie said the choice for him between Barangaroo v Dubbo was easy “I’d already worked a year or two in Sydney, commuting from the Central Coast. I’d been working at a casual job in Randwick as well as running my own business. It took two and a half hours in peak hour, so up to ﬁve hours travel a day so I’d already experienced that city life and the stresses that can be involved. That’s not the lifestyle I’m interested in.” PHOTO: DUBBO PHOTO NEWS

Medic at work By JOHN RYAN LEIF Tweedie has been working in the paramedic role at Fletcher International’s Dubbo plant for just four months and for the 28-yearold it’s been a massive tree change. He grew up in Penrith and moved to Wyong on the state’s Central Coast in 2003, finished school there and started a car detailing business which he ran for seven years. “It did well and it was successful, but my heart wasn’t in it and towards the end of that seven years I started studying because I’d always wanted to be a paramedic, that was my long term goal,” Mr Tweedie told Dubbo Photo News. “I started with Central Queensland Uni externally and I’d go to Queensland every month or two to do my residential school and then I’d also fly to Queensland for my placement. You need 800 hours of placements as part of your degree so I went to Tin Can Bay, Gympie, Coolum, Bundaberg and graduated in November 2020.” Becoming a paramedic was always his long-term goal when he was at school but he wanted to

have life experience, so started his detailing business to gain more of an understanding about people before beginning a degree in the field. “I knew I’d have to go on the road and see some pretty serious and life-threatening things, seeing people in some of the worst states of their lives, so I wanted to have my own experiences so I could effectively communicate with people when I did get to those situations – I always want to prepare myself before I start something, as much as I possibly can,” Mr Tweedie said. The Fletcher gig is his first job out of uni and one of two he was offered, the other a medic role at the new Barangaroo Crowne Plaza. “I got offered both jobs, I was tossing up between the two and then I came out for a trial at Fletcher’s and after what I saw and heard, I thought this was more suited to me,” he said. “Out here you see people before an injury, when an injury happens, during it and after, so you see not only when the injury happens but the whole recovery progress and where that leads to and you can implement your own support measures to help them. I saw that before

But four months in and he said he loves his new role.

I started here and I thought I could see some really positive things with that rather than the other medic role, which was just reactive. “Pretty much within a week or two of coming out here for a trial I came back to the Central Coast, packed up and within a week I was in Dubbo.” The new recruit really appreciates the culture of a progressive workplace which has such a human focus. “That was one of the driving factors for me actually coming out here, along with the lifestyle out here as well, that was another factor,” he said. His major stumbling block was finding any sort of affordable accommodation in Dubbo, forced to spend his first week in a motel at

$600. “I was so keen and just wanted to start work and there was no other offerings, all the AirBnBs were all full so it was $600 a week and for a uni student who’s just graduated, that’s a lot of money but I was keen to start working and just push myself into Dubbo and hope that something popped up.” Real estate agents told him 20 to 30 people were applying for every rental that came onto the market and it took a long time for Leif and his partner, who’d found a job as an accountant in Dubbo, to find their own place. “That was one of the biggest hurdles coming out to Dubbo, not knowing if we’d be able to stay just because of the problem (with) finding sustainable accommodation.”

# DUBBO JOBS COUNTER

“Workplace safety is imperative in a factory and processing or industrial operation and here it’s very obvious how important that culture is and how seriously it’s taken with Fletcher International.

“If you work here, it’s quite evident and in the first couple of days I was here it was conveyed from all around me just how important that really is and I want to prevent injuries, that’s where I’m coming from.”

By NATALIE LEWIS AS work continues on upgrading the amenities at Macquarie Regional Library’s city branch, Dubbo Regional Council has voted to investigate moving the facility to another location. At the June ordinary meeting, Cr Kevin Parker proposed transfer of the public library to the former Dubbo City Bowling Club at 72 Wingewarra St on the basis of the commercial value of its current site. “I think the site is suitable

for a retail site and future growth of the CBD,” he said. Cr Parker also outlined the suitability of moving the library into the arts precinct which includes the cultural centre and nearby theatre. “Library sites do not need to be located in a retail area any longer,” he said, adding that there was ample off-road parking and space at the recommended site. Cr Greg Mohr added an amendment to the motion, requesting that it be placed on public exhibition to allow for community consultation.

Cr John Ryan acknowledged the current upgrade and described the shift as a long-term strategic move in the future. Council CEO Murray Wood will now prepare a report advising councillors of the feasibility of the proposed move, to be tabled at the September 2021 Ordinary Meeting.

An outdoor living room is being built at Macquarie Regional Library’s Wellington branch where work is already underway. Dubbo Region Mayor Stephen Lawrence said the new space would be used for reading, events and community meetings. “An outdoor living room area is a forward-thinking approach to the way we use community facilities,” he said. “The space will be comfortable, welcoming and provide everyone in the community with an enjoyable space.” The $112,000 initiative is jointly funded by Dubbo Regional Council and the Federal Government’s Drought Communities Project. It is scheduled for completion in October 2021.

CONSERVING HIS CULTURE

Lewis Burns doesn’t want Aboriginal culture to be forgotten and is standing for the upcoming Local Government elections. PHOTO: DUBBO PHOTO NEWS/KEN SMITH

By NATALIE LEWIS DUBBO’S Lewis Burns doesn’t want Aboriginal culture to be forgotten and that’s why he will seek nomination at the upcoming local government elections for Dubbo Regional Council. Mr Burns believes there’s not enough indigenous voices in council chambers and “there’s a stigma that you’ve got to be educated or elite to get in there”. His hope to become a councillor stems from a greater need as much as personal motivation. “I’ve thought about doing it for many years,” he said. “I think there’s a definite need.” Mr Burns wants more Aboriginal representation in local government, as part of the decision-making process. “If you’ve got to get into regional councils to make sure that councils follow the proper protocols, then so be it,” he said. “I believe in honesty, integrity and transparency. Money is not my motivation. “Currently, there’s no-one there as a voice for Aboriginal people. I’m

fighting for Aboriginal people and culture and standing up as a traditional owner.” As a Tubba-Gah Wiradjuri man, Mr Burns also wants to see more cultural consultation with the local Aboriginal community. “There’s a big Aboriginal community and there’s traditional owners. We need to be consulted on a lot of cultural aspects. At the moment, there’s not a lot of consultation on the decisions made there. I want to make sure that things are being done.” Mr Burns believes it’s important to conserve heritage as much as possible, to ensure it is not lost for future generations. “I have engaged with indigenous people from all over the world and in some places, the custodians of the land died out years ago. Sadly, I don’t think cultures are being conserved. “My purpose in this is saving our culture and our people. That’s what motivates me, not to let that happen to our mob in Dubbo. “I’m the sort of person that wants to put Dubbo on the map in a good way.”

Water rebate scheme extended DECENT rains in the past two seasons have been welcomed by farmers but the Commonwealth government is urging local landholders to apply for funding from the On-farm Emergency Water Infrastructure Rebate Scheme (EWIRS) to help make their properties more drought resilient. Parkes MP Mark Coulton said farmers can apply until June 30 next year to get a share of the extra $50 million in funding for the program.

“The Coalition Government has listened to farmers in the Parkes electorate and that is why federal funding, in co-contribution with the NSW government, has been extended and is available right now,” Mr Coulton said. “I’ve heard and seen firsthand how drought-affected livestock producers and horticulturalists with permanent plantings have put in bores, dams and pipes – now even more farmers will get this opportunity.”

The scheme can be used to fund small-scale on-farm drought proofing water projects, including buying and laying pipes, installing water storage devices, such as tanks and troughs associated with stock watering and desilting dams and water bores. The Emergency Water Infrastructure Rebate (EWIR) scheme is jointly funded by the Australian and NSW governments, administered by the Rural Assistance Authority.

Apex to host Year 12 graduation

The graduation ceremony for Dubbo College Senior Campus will be held at Apex Oval for the second time this year. PHOTO: DUBBO PHOTO NEWS/KEN SMITH

By NATALIE LEWIS THE graduation ceremony for Dubbo College Senior Campus will be held at Apex Oval for the second time this year,to allow for staff and family members to attend the occasion. With an expected guest list of up to 1500, the number would exceed the campus capacity of 1000, particularly with COVID restrictions in place. Campus acting principal

Marisha Blanco wrote to Dubbo Regional Council seeking special consideration after the ceremony was held at Apex Oval last year. In her letter, Miss Blanco said the graduation is significant for the entire Dubbo community. “Included in our graduate statistics are many students who are the first of their family to graduate high school,” she said. Miss Blanco explained that there would be 256 gradu-

ands including 72 Aboriginal students. “The number of Aboriginal student graduates reflects school and broader community aspirations, for our Aboriginal youth,” she said. Class of 2020 graduate Payton Reynolds addressed council at its June ordinary meeting to describe the significance of holding the graduation at a larger venue. “As the graduation was our last full celebration as a year group, I believe it was made

significantly more unique by being held at Apex Oval. “Being able to use Apex Oval allowed us to have all of our family attend and created an atmosphere that past students had not had an opportunity to experience. “In a year of uncertainty, knowing all our loved ones could fit comfortably in the grandstand despite social distancing requirements for this momentous occasion was a relief but also made it extra special.”

Masked hair ﬂair By JOHN RYAN THE global pandemic hasn’t stopped staff at one local hairdressing salon from seeking innovative solutions to get their work done in the most comfortable way possible. Darling Hair Artistry’s team members work with clients all day so they’ve chosen to wear the shield masks as disposable according to salon admin Maxine Cusack. “They’re more comfortable to be worn all day long, easier to breathe out of and easier to communicate with the clients, espe-

cially the lovely elderly ladies who have hearing issues,” she said. “The staff sanitise the masks constantly and have made sure it is Covid acceptable to wear them.” Hairdressers (left to right) Julie Miller, Wilna Van Zyl and Jeanette Hannam had a competition for the best decorated mask and many clients say it’s so lovely going to the salon and seeing them making the best out of this horrible time. The ladies had individual photographs taken because of the current social distancing regulations. PHOTOS: SUPPLIED

EMERGENCY REPORT NEWS OPINION AND ANALYSIS by JOHN RYAN

Firies injured EARLIER this week I had a yarn with DJ Roberts and what an upbeat and positive bloke he is after almost all the family’s possessions were lost in a house fire last Sunday. He understands that Sunday morning could have been so much worse after the roof of the house they were living in collapsed onto two firefighters who were inside at the time, searching the home for people. It’s a desperate scenario when firies are unsure whether or not there’s anyone inside a blazing house – I’ve done the simulated training in a shipping container and that’s hairy enough even though there’s no risk in that situation, and you know full well that no one’s life is on the line, so to be thrust into the real thing must be terrifying. Here’s what Fire and Rescue NSW had to say about the incident: Two firefighters were injured during the incident, with one firefighter transported to hospital by ambulance. This firefighter was later released from hospital with minor injuries. That’s pretty dry by any accounts, so on behalf of everyone here at Dubbo Photo News, thank you so much for your service. DJ’s wife Eliza had given birth to daughter Morgan and was at Dubbo Hospital when the house went up in flames – DJ was up there at the time and rushed back to see what he could salvage when his flatmate Josh called to say that the house was well alight. He said the incident had taken its toll on his housemate – often it’s the aftermath that can create much of the pain. “Josh isn’t in a good space mentally at the moment as he was in the house when it was on fire so he is lost for words and he has gone to his mum’s place which is about five hours away just to be with his family at this time,” DJ said. “He is still very shaken, and just not in a good way. “Thankfully the hospital has been amazing and has been super accommodating to Eliza and Morgan. They have been great, we are still having ups and downs but are definitely getting there.” Family friend Pagan Hockley has set up a GoFundMe page for the family and it’s been ticking along nicely, a fact DJ said his little family is incredibly grateful for. “In terms of help, donations and support, all three of us are overwhelmed with how much love and

support we are getting from complete strangers. It’s so incredible to see a community work together and help us out with things,” he said. “We have just been so overwhelmed we have had offers of clothing, furniture and so much baby stuff – it’s just so incredible we don’t know how to thank everyone who has helped us already. “We were renting the property through Matt Hansen Real Estate and the entire team there have been beyond incredible for the help they have given all of us. In less than 24 hours we have got another rental through them, they have just worked wonders for us and I could never thank our agent, Alisson, so so much.”

Servo armed hold-up THERE’S been a spate of semi-spectacular robberies in the region during the past week or so, the latest in Coonamble and police are keen for community help when it comes to tipping them off about who did it, or even anyone who saw it happen or has suspicions. Police were told a man armed with a knife entered the service station on Aberford Street shortly after 5am on Monday morning, July 5, and allegedly threatened the 36-year-old male attendant before stealing cash and leaving the scene. Thankfully the attendant was physically unscathed. As investigations continue, police would like to speak with a man who may be able to assist with their inquiries. He is described as being about 170-180cm tall, of medium build and has a tanned complexion. He was last seen wearing a green hooded jumper with a black vest,

black tracksuit pants, a royal blue coloured cap, black joggers and was wearing a mask on his face.

Orana Mall ram-raid IT sounds like something out of a movie, a ram raid through the front wall at Orana Mall and into the Angus And Coote jewellery store. The saga began 160km away in Orange on Saturday evening when, shortly after 11pm on July 3, police were called to a jewellery store on Summer Street after reports of a forced entry. Police examined CCTV footage which apparently depicts two men smashing several glass display counters inside the store and tak-

ing a large quantity of jewellery. The two men were driven from the scene in a silver Kia Motor Sportage hatchback, believed to be stolen. Then, just before 6.30am last Sunday (July 4) Dubbo police were called to Orana Mall following reports of a ram-raid. On arrival police found the front doors smashed and a store inside extensively damaged after a vehicle was used to force entry to the shopping centre. A crime scene was established, and detectives commenced an investigation – it looks like the people involved in the Orange heist fled in the same vehicle that was used as the getaway car for the Orange jewellery job.

Following inquiries, the Kia Sportage was located in the driveway of a home on Elizabeth Street, Wellington, about 11.30am the same day – it was seized for forensic analysis. Police are appealing for anyone with information to come forward or contact Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000. In this day and age of celebrity idiots, I wonder if these fools filmed their escapades – that would be great footage to see played in court at their trial, I can’t wait.

July 4, alongside the Brolgan Road level crossing. Just after 6pm emergency services were alerted with Fire and Rescue NSW and Rural Fire Service crews attending the incident. Three thousand litres of diesel spilled into a causeway and officers from the Environmental Protection Authority (EPA) said thanks to quick work from Fire and Rescue NSW Station 417 Parkes in setting up containment booms, there was no immediate risk of environmental harm.

Man charged over alleged child grooming A MAN has been charged following an investigation into alleged child grooming offences. Interest in this case began on May 4 when local police, assisted by the Child Abuse and Sex Crime Command’s Child Exploitation Internet Unit, began investigating allegations a carriage service had been used in the attempted grooming of a teenage girl, and on July 3, detectives executed a search warrant at a home in Walgett shortly after 9am. A 21-year-old man was arrested and taken to Walgett Police Station where he was charged with use a carriage service to solicit child sex abuse material and use carriage service to send indecent material to person under 16. The man was granted conditional bail to appear before Walgett Local Court on Tuesday, July 27.

Pinned people came here via train THE photo at left looks innocuous enough, the good old 5917 and accompanying diesel locos stopping in at Binnaway so passengers could disembark and have lunch at the local bowling club. Unfortunately there’s a hidden underbelly here – many of the passengers were from Sydney Covid hotspots and the Sydney tour company which reportedly charged them $4000 a pop ($3500 twin-share) didn’t call off the trip just because the state government introduced some pesky restrictions. The tour group was eventually busted trying to enter Dubbo’s Taronga Western Plains Zoo.

They were also issued traffic infringement notices for driving an unregistered vehicle and being parked in a ‘no stopping’ zone. Absolutely amazing.

Updated structure of Commissioner’s Executive Team POLICE media let me know that as of 5pm Tuesday, June 29, the following Police Executive command alignments have commenced, including: Deputy Commissioner Mick Willing APM – Regional NSW Field Operations. It’s been a busy week for speculation in the NSW cops with commissioner Mick Fuller announcing he’s set to retire when his five-year term ends in April 2022 – he won’t be seeking renewal to his contract. This puts former West Dubbo lad Mick Willing in as one of the main contenders for the top job.

Load fail Coona-style I’VE carted a few weird loads in my time as a truck driver but I can’t recall ever using a trailer with a hitch made from wood.

Now, I doubt deputy commissioner Mick Willing will be setting up a taskforce to look into this incident, but Coonabarabran’s Highway Patrol officers took a good, hard look at it. What police described as a homemade box trailer with a four-bytwo wooden plank as a drawbar, snapped after going over a bumpy road. Coonabarabran Highway Patrol has taken action against the driver towing the trailer.

Gilgandra fatal crash

ON June 29 a dreaded stretch of the Newell Highway claimed yet another victim in a fatal crash. About 1pm emergency services were called to the scene about 10km south of Gilgandra. Police believe the vehicle left the roadway and crashed into a tree down an embankment and the driver – an 80-year-old man – was airlifted to John Hunter Hospital, where he remains in a serious but stable condition. The female passenger, believed to be 78 years old, was freed from the vehicle by rescue workers but died a short time later. An investigation into the circumstances surrounding the crash is underway and anyone who may have dashcam footage or information is urged to contact Crime Stoppers on 1900 333 000. A report will be prepared for the information of the Coroner. z Send your news tips to john.ryan@panscott.com.au or 0429 452 245 txt is best

Council buildings go solar SOLAR panels are being installed at seven of Dubbo Regional Council’s facilities, saving up to $70,000 a year in electricity bills. Dubbo Region Mayor Stephen Lawrence said the installation will help council achieve its goal of obtaining 50 per cent of predicted electricity consumption from renewables by 2025. “This project will help us reach that target,” Cr Lawrence said. “This solar panel installation alone is expected to save up to 300 tonnes of CO2 emissions per year, which is equal to the electricity use of about 54 homes. Panels are being installed at the Wellington and Dubbo Aquatic Leisure Centres, Dubbo Regional Theatre and Convention Centre, Dubbo Showground, Macquarie Regional Library and the Dubbo and Wellington Civic Administration Buildings. The installation has been made possible by $270,000 funding from the Federal Government’s Local Roads and Community Infrastructure Program.

WANT to meet a real life author who’s written about her childhood mental demons? Charlize Mulholland hasn’t yet finished school but already she’s embarked on a quest to educate others, young and old, about the effects of mental illness on individuals and their families and friends. She’ll be on hand to meet people and speak about her book, The Thread of a Demon, at Dubbo’s Macquarie Regional Library on Friday evening, July 9 from 6-7pm. Charlize is keen to talk about the process of the book, mental health and so much more. She says society has placed an unfortunate stigma around the concept of mental health, regarding the negative side of mental illness being considered a weakness and feels there’s been the feeling we shouldn’t talk about it since we feel like it burdens other people. “There shouldn’t be this expectation on how big your problems are or how little they feel compared to others because either way you will only feel better if you reach out and ask for help from others,” she told Dubbo Photo News.

“The emphasis that community places on this stigma affects the majority of those who are struggling with their mental health, as they either get knocked down by those around them who believe only those who are weak ask for help or that mental (ill) health is only a theory. “This misconception means those who are dealing with mental health start to believe it and their overthinking then manipulates their own perception of mental health as they shut down and isolate themselves from everyone.” Charlize says that’s why talking openly about mental health is so incredibly important, because people actually getting help is way more important than any kind of stigma. She’s also concerned that people suffering from mental ill health use this concept as an excuse to acknowledge their feelings and shut themselves down in a way to mould into social expectations of mental health, regularly using destructive coping mechanisms and ultimately suffering in silence. “I came to realise this a couple of years ago, believing that mental health is a weakness. I isolated myself from everyone. I caved in to unhealthy coping mechanisms

anxiety, but allowing teenagers to know that they’re not by themselves, that the majority of teenagers are dealing with something, but we’re all misunderstood teenagers misunderstood by one another. “But to understand that mental ill health doesn’t shape who you are, it isn’t who you are to the core if you don’t allow it to be, that is why we should be challenging the perception of mental health and allowing both mental and physical health to be a social norm.”

Hey hey, hay help is on the way By JOHN RYAN MICE-STRICKEN farms around Narromine have been helped out with charity hay deliveries this week, offering a much-needed lifeline to our primary producers. Two road trains carrying 144 bales of hay arrived in town and Rural Aid CEO John Warlters said the loads were most welcomed. “Mice have caused sig-

nificant mental and financial heartache, especially in the Central West of New South Wales,” Mr Warlters said. “Entire sheds of hay have been reduced to unusable piles of toxic straw that farmers are forced to burn. Grain has been eaten from the ground it was planted in, and homesteads over-run. “It really is a living nightmare,” Mr Warlters said.

Scott Richardson was one of the lucky recipients of the hay drive. For him, it’s been a draining year after coming out of a long-running drought and finally

looking forward to better seasons. “I loaded up my shed with hay, but I’ve already burnt hundreds of bales so far and I can’t even pick up the rest of it. The mice

have destroyed it,” Mr Richardson said. “We’ve just come out of drought and we try to be self-sufficient. This hay drop will go a long way to helping with that.”

because of those around me,” Charlize said. “The people around me didn’t speak badly about mental health, they simply didn’t understand mine as I used my mental ill health and turned it into anger, making people believe it wasn’t depression or anxiety.” She said those around her believed she was just a moody teenager and because that was what everyone thought, she made their reality her reality and turned into a self-absorbed teenager – or at least that’s what everyone else thought. But she says The Thread of a Demon is her personal mental health journey and while she cannot speak for every single teenager she believes every teenager deserves their own voice within their own mental health journey as only they know what they’re feeling. “But as a community we can work together to destroy this stigma, to allow teenagers to feel comfortable and proud of doing so as we all deserve a chance at living life to the best of our abilities without the expectations of everyone around us,” she said. “I wrote The Thread of a Demon to give not only an inside story to life in a teenager’s world that is living with depression and

WELLINGTON NEWS Push for 24-hour policing reignited WE WELCOME YOUR NEWS, IDEAS & PHOTOS email wellingtonnews@panscott.com.au phone 6885 4433

By NATALIE LEWIS WELLINGTON’S lawless reputation has been reinforced by a spate of break-ins into cars and homes, prompting a group of itinerant workers to back calls for a 24-hour police station. Locals have pushed for round the clock policing for many years, but their needs have not yet been met. Wellington solar farm worker Nanda Henny said they no longer feel safe in the town after dozens of burglaries in a matter of weeks. “Lately there have been heaps of houses broken into,” she said. “It’s become really bad and is getting worse and worse.’ According to Miss Henny, breakins are happening at all times of the day and night, prompting concerns for safety. “Lately, it’s happening a few times a day,” she said. “And it’s happening to everyone here. It’s not safe here anymore.” As a backpacker from Holland, Miss Henny has only lived in Wellington since the end of February. “I’ve spoken to a few locals and it’s been happening for a long time. They are trying to get a 24hour police station.They want to get more police as well. We know it doesn’t only happen to us. But we as backpackers want to make it a safe place for everyone.”

Police respond to protest

Last week, up to 50 temporary residents descended on the police station in Maughan St to protest their concerns. “They said they only had two people on duty in the morning and afternoon and they can’t leave the station then. It felt like they didn’t really care.”

Miss Henny believes the issue is getting out of control. She hopes to make a change for the community’s benefit. “Before I came to Wellington, I knew stuff was happening because I knew people here already. But lately it’s becoming worse and worse. I don’t think

anyone feels safe. “Maybe because we are outsiders, we can make a difference. I feel really bad for the locals because I think they have tried as well. “I don’t know who is going to listen but we want to make a difference for everyone.”

NSW POLICE responded to the backpackers protesting by reassuring the community they were being proactive in meeting the needs of the Wellington area and addressing crime trends. “Police from Orana Mid-Western Police District continue to work closely with the community to address concerns about crime issues in Wellington. “The Orana Mid-Western Police District officer in charge of Wellington Police Station will continue to work closely with concerned members of the community who attended Wellington Police Station on June 30. “Significantly, the rate of property-related crime in Wellington remains stable,” the spokesperson told Dubbo Photo News. They also said all police positions are flexible resources available to respond to incidents across the district. “Resources from Dubbo including the Proactive Crime Team, highway patrol and high visibility police are managed centrally but can be deployed to Wellington to respond to community needs and changing crime patterns or emerging issues.”

Gold exploration continues By NATALIE LEWIS MINERAL exploration continues north of Wellington, with Perth-based company Magmatic Resources actively drilling for gold-copper targets in an area surrounding Alkane’s Boda discovery. A company report highlights the value of Magmatic’s position in the northern Molong Volcanic Belt, in what is emerging as a significant discovery hotspot. “The Boda discovery has

highlighted the surface signature of mineralisation in the area and has significantly upgraded Magmatic’s target portfolio for Boda-style gold-copper mineralisation.” Diamond drilling has commenced in the area, primarily in the Lady Ilse corridor, which represents one of a cluster of gold-copper targets at the Wellington North Project. Lady Ilse lies west of the historic Bodangora Mines. “The Bodangora target

covers the historic Bodangora gold mines, comprising two vein-hosted gold operations (Dicks Reward and Mitchells Creek) mined in the late 1800s to early 1900s. Previous production is reported at 226,000 ounces at an impressive grade of 26g/t Au.” Recent drilling by Magmatic confirmed additional gold mineralisation near the former mine workings.

Dubbo’s new drug court and rehab centre: Silver bullet or soft option? Dubbo’s newly announced drug court, and the rehabilitation centre that will go with it, is the culmination of many years’ work and collaboration between a diverse collective of individuals and organisations across the western region. The drug court will be the fourth such facility in NSW, and is aimed at addressing the burgeoning issue of drug use and crime across the region. The NSW Government’s announcement late last month means the dream held by so many will now become a reality, but as the ink dries on the deal, stakeholders are warning that while it is not a soft option for drug crime offenders, neither is it a silver bullet. In Dubbo Photo News’ two-part exploration of the initiative, JEN COWLEY speaks to some of the key stakeholders. Last week, Mayor Stephen Lawrence and renowned Aboriginal advocate “Riverbank” Frank Doolan talked about their involvement with and hopes for the program. In this week’s edition, Dubbo MP Dugald Saunders and NSW Police Assistant Commissioner Geoff McKechnie APM share their thoughts and insights. MORE than 30 years’ experience as a police officer, and being born and bred in the region, Assistant Commissioner Geoff McKechnie has a greater understanding than most about the devastation of drugs on small regional communities. From a policing perspective, he’s hoping the drug court and rehab centre will be well resourced and ultimately serve as a circuit breaker to help address recidivism. ••• From a policing perspective and with the beneﬁt of many years’ experience, what are your thoughts on the newly announced drug court and rehabilitation facility, and its potential efficacy in the ﬁght against drugs in the western region? I’m really positive about the initiative. What we often find in policing – and magistrates and judges will find the same thing – is a lack of options to get people the help they need to stop them re-offending. We quite often see people serving custodial sentences because there aren’t many other options. We have a massive recidivist offender problem in Western NSW where the same people are continually committing the same offences and because of their criminal histories and the circumstances in which they find themselves, they are repeatedly in and out of custody and the court system and our (police) processes. Anything that

can break that cycle is a positive thing. I haven’t been officially informed of how this drug court functions or how the previously announced rehabilitation centre for Dubbo might work, but I’ve read about both initiatives and I’m hopefully and confident in many ways that it will help to impact on crime in the region. Is it unusual that you, as the region’s most senior police officer, wouldn’t be consulted in the development of this initiative? We’ve been asked to contribute to different projects along the way but at this point I haven’t seen a final documentation as to how these initiatives are going to work – and I acknowledge that such documentation may not even yet exist. I just hope that the initiatives are properly resourced and are able to operate effectively. There’s expertise needed around treatments like these, and a lot of human and physical resources are needed – if that’s done properly, this could be a really positive initiative. What I’m hearing is that this is a good start but adequate resources need to be in place to ensure its effectiveness. Yes, absolutely. People often talk to me about positive programs and initiatives that various agencies – including us (NSW Police) – put in place in western NSW and they’re good for a while, while ever they’re working and funded and while we have people leading them. When that stops, the programs just wither and die. Many of our communities and people are tired of seeing that occur. It’s frustrating for people to see things that are achieving good outcomes disappear. I hope that this drug court initiative and the rehabilitation centre can have some long-term and

lasting good effects for people in the region. You’ve grown up in and been a police officer around the region for a long time – in terms of the human toll drugs take in small communities, it must be heartbreaking? It certainly can be. As you rightly point out, I know lots of people around the region and I get around and talk to a lot of people, so I hear the stories about the battles people are fighting to get help for their loved ones and assistance to break the cycle. It’s particularly hard when services are thin on the ground. We have to accept that living in remote and regional areas means we’re never going to have the significant level of services suburban areas get, but there has to be a point where community expectations are met and people are able to get the help they need. How important is it that the judicial system and its representatives work with police in this quest? We’re never going to work hand in glove because there has to be that separation between enforcement and the court system, and that’s fine. I’m just pleased that the courts might be getting another option to use to try to help these people and break the cycle of reoffending that we as police see far too often. Our police are doing a fantastic job, right across the state and across the western region – we’re very good at what we do, but we just don’t see people’s lives changing or their circumstances changing. They offend, they come through our process, they go off and do their custodial sentence and they come back to exactly the same set of circumstances they left. So what do we expect is going to happen? They’re just going to fall into the same routines and traps, and we’ll

be seeing them back in our police stations again and we don’t want that. So is the hope that this drug court and rehabilitation centre is part of helping to break the cycle, because what we’ve been doing thus far hasn’t worked? It’s not working, no. I know (the Department of) Corrections is doing more than it’s ever done in this space in terms of trying to change people’s behaviours for the better, and I just hope this drug court and rehab centre is another step along the way. Because just putting people in and out of custody without changing their circumstances doesn’t work. ••• HIS support for the establishment of drug rehabilitation services precedes by some way his foray into the political arena, so it is with great satisfaction that Dugald Saunders had the honour of announcing, in his capacity as the Member for Dubbo, the establishment of a drug court and rehabilitation facility for the city. Could you just give our readers a recap on what was announced late last month? The announcement was that there will be a fully funded drug court operating out of the new building at the existing Dubbo Courthouse – it’s set up with a number of different components that other courtrooms don’t have, including a table for people such as community workers, family members and the judge, to sit around and have a yarn about things. The commitment (from the NSW Government) is $27.9 million over four years, and it should be fully operational by around this time next year. The job now is to set the drug court up, which will be in conjunction with the senior judge who runs the drug court

in Sydney – Roger Dive, who has been a great advocate for expanding the drug court to be as much a part of regional areas as possible. In layman’s terms, and for those who may not have had any experience with the court system, how does this facility differ from a normal court room? In many ways, not a lot, apart from the fact that after the initial appearance before the judge, there are then regular visits. The way it’s set up, if someone is found guilty of a drug offence, they do have to undergo detoxification – sometimes that happens in a corrections facility, sometimes a purpose-built detox facility, but they do have to detox and that’s usually a couple of weeks. Then they go to the drug court and there’s three phases of that. Firstly, there’s the expectation of reducing drug use and coming off drugs. In that phase, they have to undergo testing and that’s usually two or three times a week and it’s done in the drug court. In this new facility, there’s a sample room where people provide urine tests. Phase two is about consolidation – remaining drug and crime free, but also developing life skills and working on employment. Again drug testing happens a couple of times. Phase three is about reintegration – gaining some kind of employment, learning again how to be financially responsible. Drug testing is still conducted, and court appearances are a part of this, but it’s back to about monthly. So the whole service relies on the person doing the right thing but also on that constant contact and testing, and support from those agencies and organisations that provide the wraparound services, which are important. So it’s a holistic approach to supporting people to help ensure they don’t reoffend? Yes. It’s very much about those wraparound services but it’s also not a softening of the approach to drug crime. That’s one of the concerns some people seem to have – that this is somehow “going soft”. What’s your response to that concern? I understand that that can be the perception, but there are some stringent requirements for the person going before the court – there is absolutely an agreement entered into, and if that’s broken by the person they end up in gaol. It’s as simple as that. If they fail a drug test, they end up in jail. If they do the wrong thing crimewise, they end up in jail. There’s a stick and there’s a carrot, and hopefully they’re used in proportion. The idea is that the drug court is creating a different pathway than we’re used to seeing, which is a custodial scenario.

NSW Police Assistant Commissioner Geoff McKechnie. PHOTO: DUBBO PHOTO NEWS/JOHN RYAN/FILE Let’s face it, that traditional pathway hasn’t exactly been a roaring success, has it? No, it hasn’t. And we know there are all sorts of costs associated with just jailing people – if there’s a way we can maintain which is not “going soft” on crime or on drugs but that stops people reoffending then I think most of the community would be in favour of that. The statistics show it’s roughly a 17 per cent reduction in re-offending (through the drug court) and that’s something we need to build on but it’s a start. There are certain eligibilities as well – if you’re a severe criminal, you’re not eligible for drug court. If you’re charged with sexual offences, you’re not eligible for drug court, and so on. The drug court is for those things that are regarded in some ways as slightly below (the severity) of other criminal activity – small level drug supply, break and enter, stealing cars. What kind of evidence is there that the approach taken by the drug court works? There are four fundamental aspects common to each of the drug courts – of which there are three so far, Sydney, Parramatta, Toronto and Dubbo will be the fourth.

Those aspects are evidence-based treatment of drug use, social support and development of living skills, regular reporting to the court regarding the participant’s progress and the regular testing for drug use. Someone doesn’t just come into this system and get a free ride – there’s weekly, fortnightly and monthly interactions to make sure they’re on the right track and if they’re not, they will end up in a different scenario. If they do the right thing, they have a much clearer pathway to get into meaningful employment and off drugs. There’s a huge element of personal responsibility and like anything, if the person isn’t wanting to be part of it they’ll fairly rapidly be kicked off the program and into a correctional facility. What’s the catchment for this court, and will it be enough to service that catchment? The catchment is still being worked out. Normally, it’s based on a local government area, but in the case of the Dubbo drug court, it will likely depend on the expectation of where people might come from. It certainly won’t cover the entire western region, but it may cover Dubbo, Wellington, Narromine and maybe a bit fur-

ther. That’s one of the things that needs to be worked out. With regard to servicing that catchment, we need to look at the number of people that can actually be treated. The Dubbo drug-court is set to treat 80 people per year, and that’s higher than any of the other drug courts currently. That’s because (drug courts are) very heavy in terms of their use of manpower and resources – they’re not just tick and flick, there’s a lot of interaction with offenders. So while 80 doesn’t sound like a lot, it’s actually significant when you look at the level of management required for one participant week to week and month to month. Is it enough? Well, is it ever enough? Can you cover every single person for every single thing? Probably not. Remember, not everyone will fit these criteria. It would be nice to think that everyone who’s charged with a drug crime will go through the drug court and have a happy life. That’s not the reality. This aims to help those who want to be helped. Those who want to remain as criminals will remain as criminals. That’s the reality. My hope is that we can make a meaningful change particularly

for young people who have grown up with intergenerational crime. If there’s an opportunity to take a different path with the right help, that’s worth it. And that’s also what the rehab service, which is running parallel but separately, is about. We can’t fix everyone, but it will be for people who want to change their lives. There’s no getting away from the fact that there’s an over-representation of young Aboriginal people in the justice system, much of that linked to drug crime or use. How important is the ability to keep these offenders in community and on country in helping to change that statistic? Certainly, when I speak with elders and others from a range of different age groups across our communities, they all say that’s a really important aspect of the drug court being established here. That’s why it’s important that the drug court has come to Dubbo rather than trying to get people from here into a drug court in Sydney or Parramatta or Toronto. It makes a big difference. On the other hand, some will say it creates the potential for things to go wrong and similarly with rehabilitation – sometimes being too close to where you are

used to being and having the influence of those who aren’t the best role models in your life can make it difficult.

But I’m hoping that being able to stay in a meaningful and culturally appropriate way in their country is a help not a hindrance.

The support that can be provided by elders, and community and services here – I think it will be far better for that support to be happening locally. How long have you been championing this cause?

For some people it might seem odd that I know so much about this – but that’s because I’ve been talking for the past six or seven years now, well prior to becoming the Member for Dubbo, about drug rehab, drug courts, Koori courts...that sort of thing. I’ve spoken to many different people over the years and since I came into this new role, it’s been one of my main aims for change in this region.

You can’t fix everything at once, and you also can’t help everyone you want to help, but this is one way forward. This isn’t just about a political or economic decision – this is about actually changing the course of people’s lives. 

A longforgotten history of the Volunteer Hotel

T is unclear when the Volunteer Hotel was built, but its construction probably occurred in 1885-86. The earliest known licence for the premises was granted to William Shadbolt on May 14, 1886. The only other liquor licence issued to a hotel in Gipps St prior to 1886, was to William Gale at the Great Western Hotel (current Garden Hotel) on September 13, 1881. William (Bill) Shadbolt may have built the Volunteer, as he and long-time business partner George Sayers were registered builders and bricklayers in Dubbo from as early as 1880. The reason behind the naming of the Volunteer is unclear. There were about half a dozen pubs in NSW that traded under the name. Reports on the history of the other pubs indicate the name was simply a gesture of recognition to all community volunteers. On February 13, 1890, William Shadbolt was granted a billiard licence for the premises. In the Dubbo Police Court on October 25, 1892, William Shadbolt faced a charge of keeping a licenced house open for the sale of liquor during prohibited hours. He was fined £1, with five shillings and tenpence costs, or seven days’ gaol. On October 17, 1893, it was alleged a man named John Turnbull maliciously wounded and attempted to rob Thomas McBeath, a patron of the Volunteer Hotel. In the court case, held at Dubbo on January 29, 1894, it was stated Turnbull and McBeath had been drinking together at the Volunteer, after which they both went across the road to Elston Park for a nap. It was during this time that McBeath claimed Turnbull assaulted him and tried to steal three half-crowns from his pocket. Turnbull was eventually acquitted due to a lack of evidence. On July 25, 1894, the Dubbo Liberal reported that William Shadbolt, licensee of the Volunteer Hotel, applied to Dubbo Municipal Council to construct a tennis court in the grounds of Elston Park. On September 11, 1894, the Dubbo Dispatch reported William Shadbolt had been charged under laws pertaining to the Liquor Act. The Inspector of Distilleries,

The Shadbolt family: Father William, third from right, mother Ann, fourth from right, seven children to right of Ann among whom could be, in order of age: Julia b. 1867, Emma b. 1870, Mary b. 1873, Eleanor b. 1876, Rosena b. 1878, Henry b. 1880, William b. 1882, Grace b. 1888.

Dubbo’s court house, old post office and old bank buildings are prominent reminders of our city’s history, but tucked away a few blocks from the CBD in Gipps Street is another much-less-known reminder of our early days. The building at 125-127 Gipps Street, opposite Elston Park, was once the Volunteer Hotel and later changed its name to the Newtown Hotel. STEVE HODDER has been researching its history.

represented by Mr C. H. Fitzharding, brought the charges against Shadbolt for not destroying government stamps on his used beer casks. Mr Shadbolt did not deny the charges but did not explain his actions. The Police Magistrate, however, felt there had been no intention by the defendant to defraud the (tax) revenue, and as such, made the fine as low as possible. The fine for each beer cask on which the stamp had not been destroyed was 10 shillings, plus 10 shillings and sixpence costs. On August 13, 1894, a Bakers Swamp farmer named James Owens came to Dubbo on the mail train for a bit of a spree. After cashing a £10 cheque he went to the Volunteer Hotel where a couple of cadgers, Michael Ryan and William Foulston, took advantage of his generosity. After having a few drinks and a meal, the elderly James Owens fell asleep and was taken to a bedroom by Ryan and Foulston. Shortly after the two men put the old man to bed, they took £11, 10 shillings from his pockets and left the premises. At a court case two months later Ryan and Foulston were found guilty by a jury and sentenced to 18 months hard labour. On July 10, 1895, the death of William Shadbolt’s wife Ann was reported. The notice stated: “We regret to announce the death of Mrs (Ann) Shadbolt, of the Volunteer Hotel, Gipps Street. Mrs Shadbolt, who was an old resident of Dubbo had been suffering from heart disease for six months past, and two or three months ago visited Sydney in the hope of securing further medical advice, but the doctors whom she consulted were unable to render any relief. The large gathering of friends who attended her funeral was testament to the esteem in which she was held.” Just one year later on Wednesday July 22, 1896, the Dubbo Liberal reported the death of Mr William Shadbolt. The notice stated: “Mr W. Shadbolt, an old resident of Dubbo died on Monday after a long illness. Mr Shadbolt kept the

Volunteer Hotel in Gipps Street.” It is unclear who took over the running of the Volunteer after the deaths of Ann and Bill Shadbolt. They had eight children aged from 29 to 10 years, who may have kept the business operating for some time. On May 4, 1898, it was reported that a licence for the Volunteer Hotel had been granted to a Mr Frank Day. In October 1898, just a few months after taking over the pub, a disturbing incident brought Mr Day’s practices as a licensee into question. A 65-year-old cabman named Henry Jacobs, who was a resident of the Volunteer Hotel, committed suicide in his room. Mr Jacobs, it was later discovered, was in debt to Mr Day and resolved the situation by slashing his throat with a cut-throat razor. At an inquest into the death of Mr Jacobs, newspaper coverage on October 26 reported, “Frank Day was charged with breach of the Liquor Act of 1898, in that he, being the holder of a publican’s license (the Volunteer Hotel, Dubbo) did receive certain articles, viz., a horse, cab, and harness

from one H. Jacobs in payment for entertainment supplied at such licenced house.” It was revealed at the inquest that Mr Jacobs was in financial hardship with his only means of support being his horse and hansom cab, which he had hocked to Frank Day in return for accommodation and ‘entertainment’ (alcohol), an arrangement that according to the court was in breach of the Liquor Act. On conclusion of the court case, Mr Day was fined £10. It is unclear how long Frank Day remained at the Volunteer as no other records regarding his licensing tenure could be found. On June 15, 1900, the NSW Government Gazette recorded the granting of a licence to Alpha Thurley to operate the Volunteer Hotel from May 14, 1900, to May 13, 1901. No other records could be found to confirm Alpha Thurley’s tenure beyond that period, or any other information relating to that person. Newspaper reports of the day confirm the Thurley name among a number of rural landowners in the Dubbo district at the time but shed little light on

the identity or personality of the Volunteer licensee during the year of Federation. The next report of a licensee of the Volunteer appeared in a local newspaper on December 3, 1902, when police brought proceedings against Edward Richardson, “for knowingly allowing persons of notoriously bad character to assemble on licensed premises.” Sergeant McKenzie stated that on the night of November 25, he found several convicted thieves and other disreputable persons in the public dining room. Sergeant McKenzie had previously cautioned the defendant on another occasion when the house had been the subject of a complaint. Constables Dunn and Wheeler gave corroborative evidence; however, the Police Magistrate said the police had only shown one person of bad repute was present on the night, according to Mrs Richardson, who was at the time in charge of the house. The case was dismissed. The NSW Government Gazette published on January 28, 1903, recorded that, “Edwin Richardson, licensee of the Volunteer Hotel, summoned before the Dubbo Bench by Sergeant McKenzie, Dubbo Police, for keeping his licensed premises open for the sale of liquor during prohibited hours, has been fined £6, five shillings

and sixpence.” On June 23, 1903, the NSW Government Gazette recorded the licence for the Volunteer was granted to Edwin Richardson from May 14, 1903, to May 13, 1904. At some stage in 1903, it appears the operations of the Volunteer Hotel were taken over by long-time Dubbo publican George Howard and his wife Elizabeth. They had been running the Traveller’s Rest Hotel in Macquarie Street for many years. It appears Elizabeth may have led the move from Macquarie Street to the quieter surrounds of Gipps Street after a frightening disturbance at the Traveller’s Rest on New Years’ Eve 1900-01 when a drunken mob of hooligans overran the pub in search of more liquor. Fortunately, the police were able to quell the riotous revellers before any harm came to the publicans; however, it was an unsettling experience for Elizabeth as she had to go to court to testify against the ringleaders of the riot. On November 4, 1903, the Dubbo Dispatch reported that George Howard was charged with using insulting language to his wife Elizabeth. He pleaded guilty and was fined 10 shillings in default of three days imprisonment. A second charge of assault was withdrawn. A little over a month later Mrs Howard’s troubled life came to an abrupt end, details of which were reported in the Dubbo Dispatch on December 23, 1903. “We have to report the death of Mrs Elizabeth Howard, wife of Mr George Howard, who for a number of years was licensee of the Traveller’s Rest Hotel, Macquarie Street, and lately of the Volunteer Hotel. Deceased, who was 48 years of age, succumbed to heart failure at 3.30pm on Sunday last (December 20, 1903). She had been a resident of Dubbo for over 20 years and leaves four sons and five daughters, most of whom are grown up.” A timeline of events over the next few years can be compiled from newspaper reports and Government Gazettes at the time. On January 9, 1904, it was reported that the licence of the Volunteer Hotel was transferred from George Howard to Henry E. Stribley. On June 17, 1904, the NSW Government Gazette recorded the licence for the Volunteer had been granted to Richard H. Stribley from May 14, 1904, to May 13, 1905. On March 22, 1905, a newspaper report said the licence for the Volunteer Hotel was granted to Mrs (Florence) Stribley, as executrix of her late husband Rich-

ard Stribley, who died aged 38, in 1904. On June 23, 1905, the NSW Government Gazette recorded the licence for the Volunteer had been extended to Florence Lydia Stribley from May 14, 1905, to May 13, 1906. On May 16, 1906, a newspaper reported Florence Stribley had her licence for the Volunteer Hotel renewed at a cost of £20. On June 13, 1906, a newspaper report revealed Florence Stribley was proceeded against by Dubbo Municipal Council for the recovery of 16 shillings in sanitary dues and £1 13 shillings in gas charges; verdicts given with costs. On June 13, 1906, the NSW Government Gazette recorded the licence for the Volunteer Hotel, Dubbo had been extended to Florence Lydia Stribley from May 14, 1906, to May 13, 1907. On May 22, 1907, the NSW Government Gazette recorded the licence for the Newtown Hotel, Dubbo had been granted to Frederick Tuck from May 14, 1907, to May 13, 1908. This is the first record of the premises being rebranded. An obituary for Frederick Tuck Snr published in the Dubbo Dispatch on November 3, 1906, suggests the Tucks may have taken over operations of the Volunteer prior to the licence being granted to Frederick Tuck Jnr. The Dispatch report stated Frederick Tuck Snr, whose wife predeceased him, left two children, Mrs T. Cronin of Sydney and, “Mr F. Tuck of the Volunteer Hotel.” The Wellington Times reported on July 20, 1908, that the Newtown Hotel was one of 10 establishments in the Dubbo licencing district that was having its licence revoked. The licensees of the 10 establishments were given three years from the date of notification, after which their licences would be terminated, and they would no longer be able to trade as licenced premises. The rationale of the Licencing Court was based on the number of licences per head of population in the Macquarie Electorate. The total number of licences across the Dubbo-Wellington district was 51. The ruling by the Licencing Court reduced the number to 41. The order of the Licencing Court meant the Newtown Hotel had to cease trading as a licenced victualler from July 1911. Along with the drastic news of having its licence cancelled, the above report from the Wellington Times noted the Volunteer’s name change to the Newtown Hotel. The premises, at 125-127 Gipps Street Dubbo, are located in the area that was commonly referred

as Newtown. On November 7, 1908, the Dubbo Liberal reported that Fred Tuck and several other publicans were fined 20 shillings for watering down their whiskey. On June 16, 1909, the NSW Government Gazette recorded that Frederick Tuck had his licence renewed for the period from May 14, 1909, to May 13, 1910. On April 12, 1911, a newspaper report said that Frederick Tuck of the Newtown Hotel Dubbo had his licence renewed at a cost of £50 for the assessment and £10 for the licence. On July 26, 1911, the death was reported of Frederick Tuck Jnr, 34, licensee of the Newtown Hotel. The report stated he died “less than a week” after coming down with a “virulent attack of pneumonia”. Coincidently, Fred Tuck’s death occurred on the same day as the termination of his livelihood, scheduled by the Licencing Court to take effect on July 22, 1911. After burying her husband, Annie Tuck continued operating the former hotel as a boarding house. On December 15, 1911, four months after the Volunteer lost its liquor licence, a petition from neighbouring residents was submitted to the NSW Attorney General in a bid to have the hotel reopened. The petition was referred to Dubbo police for verification of the signatures and in turn was to be lodged with the Dubbo Licencing Court for a hearing. A newspaper report on June 14, 1912, revealed that Annie Elizabeth Tuck had lodged an application to the local Licencing Court for the reinstatement of the liquor licence for the Newtown Hotel. Strong argument was put forward by Annie Tuck regarding the need for a licenced hotel in that location, including its location on the main road to Wellington, increased population in the vicinity and demand from family members of patients at the nearby Clydebank Hospital.

The police contested the need for a hotel in that part of town or anywhere else in Dubbo. After lengthy deliberations over two days the case was adjourned till the following week. On October 12, 1912, the death was reported of former Volunteer Hotel licensee George Howard, who died in Sydney. The outcome of the court case held the week after June 14, 1912, is unclear, however, the Sydney Morning Herald reported nine months later on March 4, 1913, that Annie Tuck had made history in NSW by being the first person in the State to ever have a hotel licence reinstated. Annie Tuck’s celebrations were short-lived, however, as the Dubbo Dispatch reported on July 25, 1913, she was back in court facing an appeal by the local police to have her licence cancelled for good. The police were successful in their appeal, forcing Annie Tuck to permanently close the doors of her bar and never sell alcohol at the Newtown again. Annie Tuck continued to live in the former hotel and operate it as a boarding house. On February 29, 1916, the Dubbo Liberal reported Annie used the old pub for the reception for her marriage to Dubbo builder Frank Manser, which took place on February 26, 1916. On Tuesday August 2, 1921, the Dubbo Dispatch reported another death at the premises. This time it was an elderly guest from the far west, who died during his stay in Dubbo. The report stated, “Mr James Egan, aged 78 years, a resident of the Bourke district, died at Mrs Manser’s boarding house, Gipps Street, Dubbo on Saturday.” James Egan was the sixth person to have died on the premises, the other five being Elizabeth Shadbolt (heart disease) 1895, William Shadbolt (after long illness) 1896, Henry Jacobs (suicide) 1898, Elizabeth Howard (heart failure) 1903, Richard Stribley (cause unknown) 1904, and Frederick Tuck Jnr (pneumonia) 1911. It is unclear how long the Mansers continued to reside at the old pub after their marriage, but a newspaper report on October 6, 1922, indicates they were still in possession of the property in Gipps Street up until then. The report, under the heading ‘Dubbo Council – Notice of Transfers’, stated Lot 6, Gipps Street was transferred from F.A. (Frank) Manser to H.S. (Hugh Stanley) Moriarty, a local baker. The Mansers may have left the old pub at this point and relocated to another residence in Dubbo. An obituary published on November 26, 1954, stated Anne Manser remained in Dubbo until 1944 when she moved to the

Sydney suburb of Rockdale; she was 78 at the time of her death. No other reports could be found in relation to her husband Frank. Little is known of the occupancy of the former Volunteer-Newtown Hotel premises after they were vacated by the Mansers. It may have been Hugh Moriarty, who converted the old hotel and adjoining living quarters into three separate residences, numbered 125, 125a and 127. The family of long-time Dubbo resident Carol Speed lived in 125 Gipps Street for a period from the 1940s to the 1980s. Mrs Speed’s family had a long association with Dubbo hotels, as far back as 1900 when her uncle Frederick Burkinshaw acquired the licence of the Globe Hotel in Macquarie Street. Fred Burkinshaw had a long career in the hotel trade, later having pubs at Dunedoo, Merrygoen and Cobbora. Long-time Dubbo resident Narelle Boys (nee Peckham) and her family lived in the middle unit 125a from 1946 to 1950. Narelle was born in 1940. “We lived in the middle terrace from September 1946, after Uncle Bob Burns, Mum’s brother, moved out to work on Warragamba Dam,” she said. However, immediately prior to Narelle’s family moving in, she recalled another couple living there. “Aunty Rita and Uncle Alf (Chatfield) were in there after Uncle Bob moved out,” she said. Further adding to her recollections, Narelle Boys recalled the names of other residents living in the adjoining units. “Mrs Hickey and her son Dick lived in the right terrace facing Elston Park and Mr and Mrs Owers lived to the left of us. We moved out after Dad passed away in 1950,” she said. Little else is known about the occupation of the former Volunteer-Newtown Hotel until the early 2000s when the premises and a large parcel of adjoining land was purchased by entrepreneurs Peter Davis and Jennifer Walker. This industrious couple had grand visions to fully restore the old pub to house their delicatessen/cafe Newtown Providores, which they originally established in Wingewarra Street in 2002. Davis and Walker intended to retain the building’s integrity and try to restore it using as little new material as possible. Their vision, however, was never fulfilled and the property was sold a decade later. In 2013, the old pub, comprising a total land package of 3738 square metres, was sold at auction by Dubbo commercial real estate agent Andrew McDonald. The land is zoned B4 Mixed Use, allowing the owner to develop the site for commercial or residential purposes. In 2017, a Dubbo company Brownrite Building Group undertook restoration and renovation works on the old pub and adjoining residence. At the time the renovation commenced, the old building was seriously dilapidated. A significant amount of new material went into the project to secure and preserve the building structurally and aesthetically. On completion about a year later, it was thought by observers, that the building would be leased for commercial purposes and take on a new life in the modern age, but it remains behind construction fencing, sitting idle, piquing the minds of the curious as to what new enterprise might unfold. ©

OPINION & ANALYSIS

THE TOONS’ VIEWS

State Member apologises and clarifies comments The Editor, After speaking with a number of Wellington community members, I would like to apologise for comments that were attributed to me in a story published late last week. Anybody who knows me, knows I am not a racist person, and while I don’t deny making the comment as it was printed, I believe there should have been more context to the overall discussion, and therefore I would like to provide some detail on what I was actually trying to communicate. Wellington is a town full of wonderful people, and my wife, children and I have spent many hours involved in local community and sporting groups over the years. However the issues that confront the community are complex, and as much as I wish I could click my fingers and fix them, I can’t. There are a number of programs in place to help people, and work is being done by a myriad of groups, ranging from police through to elected and unelected community leaders, to ensure Wellington is a great place to live, work and play. Despite this, there are still problems that appear from time to time, and some of those are crime related and drug related... that’s exactly why I have been working so hard on a drug court and rehab facility. There’s no one quick fix, but a concerted effort around programs for young people and involving the right people, including police, is the way forward. I have regular catch-ups with police to keep in touch with what’s happening locally, and have also involved local groups to help keep all parts of the community working together. This is what I was trying to communicate in the broader discussion I had when I made the comments, and I apologise profusely for the anger and hurt those comments have caused within sections of the community. Since I was given the privilege of being elected to this role in 2019, I have worked incredibly hard to support the Indigenous community in any way I can, and that support will continue. Dugald Saunders, Member for Dubbo

On selling the library site: Reading too much into it? The Editor, A report in a local paper last week stated Cr Kevin Parker wants to sell off the Dubbo public library for retail development. Cr Parker reckons the library could be relocated to the old bowlo site next to the cultural centre in Wingewarra Street, and all costs offset by the sale of the existing site. The newspaper article stated Cr Parker believed the current location of the library was “suitable for a retail site” and “future growth for the CBD”. Cr Parker was further quoted as saying: “The library doesn’t need to be located in a retail area any longer.” If there is such a big demand for retail space in Dubbo, why have the John Oxley Motel, Harris Scarfe and The Warehouse sites in Macquarie Street been vacant for

so long? Logic would say the answer is there is no big demand for retail space in the CBD. The next question is what is the real reason for wanting to sell the library? Could it be for a major residential development, with a bit of retail on the ground floor? It’s a massive block of land, running from Macquarie Street to Bligh Street; you’d get a lot of apartments with a 10-storey tower covering that area. There’s been a recent push for more centralised living spaces in Dubbo and I suspect the library proposal is part of that. I’m not against development, but would like to see more transparency from council and the players behind this proposal. Steve Hodder, Dubbo

Federal Member reflects on losing ministerial role The Editor, As a result of the recent Cabinet reshuffle, I am no longer the Minister for Regional Health, Regional Communications and Local Government. I am proud of all the programs and changes I was able to deliver during my time as Minister, such as the introduction of the Regional Connectivity Program which will improve broadband access to many small towns and villages, and the Local Roads and Community Infrastructure program which is assisting councils in every corner of the country to deliver priority local road and infrastructure projects to support jobs and boost the resilience of local economies and to help communities bounce back from the pandemic. I’m particularly proud and pleased with the progress we’ve collectively made over the past two years in regional health, in the areas of workforce distribution, changes to GP and allied health training and positive improvements to how bush doctors are remunerated. While I am disappointed to lose my ministerial role, I remain as committed as ever to delivering for the Parkes electorate. I will continue to turn up each and every day for the wonderful people of this electorate. You are the people who have put me in Parliament for the past 14 years, and to you I am very grateful. Mark Coulton, Federal Member for Parkes

Travel Card channges: Shame on The Nationals The Editor, It has come to my attention that the Seniors Travel Card is to be extended from January 1, 2022, close to three years after the card was first made available, to people on a disability or carers’ pension, but they must be of an age to be eligible for an aged pension. Member for Dubbo Dugald Saunders and the Nationals’ election promise prior to the 2019 election was the Seniors Travel Card, but only for aged pensioners. No veterans or war widows or people with disability or carers who look after people less fortunate than us. There was lobbying by the

Opposition to get other groups considered. After a long delay before the card was distributed, the veterans and war widows were included, people with disability and carers were not. The Nationals suggested there could be more ‘taxi vouchers’ for them! Really! Mr Saunders, there should not be an age limit on people who are receiving a disability or carers’ pension to receive the Travel Card. Some of them may not be ‘seniors’ and may never become a senior. If you are concerned about a word like ‘seniors’ on the card, change it and call it a “Disability/ Carers Travel Card”. Mr Saunders, it is not too late to ‘thump your fist on that table’ and lobby hard for those people who are less fortunate than yourself. After all they too are your constituents. Kate Bailey, Ponto

Easy to join, hard to leave The Editor, In 2019 I took out a membership at a national gym in Dubbo. I used the gym frequently and had numerous conversations with the local manager about the lengthy times I spend overseas. Before I left to go abroad in February 2020 I asked the manager to suspend my membership. However, I noticed that gym fees were being debited from my bank account while I was still overseas due to the worldwide pandemic. When it became clear in April 2020 that travelling back to Australia when I planned to would be impossible, I emailed their head office and asked them to suspend my membership ‘until further notice’. Fees again started being withdrawn from my account a couple of months later. An exchange of emails revealed you can only suspend a member-

ship for three months and then an automated debit system starts up again. The gym does not or can’t increase the suspension time even in the extenuating circumstances that existed last year and in 2021. Checks on the number of times you visit the gym each month are done frequently so the manager must have realised I was still out of the country. They said actions weren’t taken ‘as per agreement’. Similar deductions still occurred once again later in 2020. Requests were again made to cancel my membership. At this stage, as far as I was concerned the matter was over. Then in April 2021 gym fees again started coming out of my account. Several emails were then exchanged and the manager told me I could not cancel the membership nor fees be refunded under the gym agreement. If this had been made clear from the beginning I would not have joined up. It would have been too restrictive. They finally cancelled my membership when they realised any change of address documents I gave them would have been in a foreign language. My advice, beware of these types of gym agreements. G. Smyth, Dubbo

THE THUMBS

Thumbs Up and a big thank you to the paramedics and wonderful people who helped me outside the post office after my fall on Monday.

Thumbs Down to Essential Energy. Last Sunday, June 27, there was a planned power outage by Essential Energy in West Dubbo from 0830 to around 1130. There was no prior warning of the outage but I found this by Google. Surely they could have SMSed residents in the affected areas prior to this occurrence so that alternative arrangements could have been made.

Thumbs Down to the mess that Gladys and ScoMo have made of the vaccination rollout and the endless mixed messages that even doctors I know tell me they can’t make sense of. It shows an utter disdain for the Australian public, and highlights just how much these elected leaders are out of touch with ordinary people.

Thumbs Up to Holy Trinity Church and everyone involved in the ringing of the bells, it was a beautiful day and well worthwhile attending.

Thumbs Up to Dubbo Photo News: As an ex-Dubbo-er who comes home regularly to see family, thanks for the great work the Dubbo Photo News does. It is a weekly staple at my family home and is always a great read. (Editor’s note: For anyone with family or friends now living away from Dubbo, the full digital version of Dubbo Photo News can be accessed online, free of charge.)

Thumbs Up to Western NSW Local health District’s HD’s team vCare! They are the hidden heroes who support our entire district for our unwell patients. Thumbs Up to the staff at Dubbo Base & Hospital. Their attention, attitude and care to-

ward the patients is absolutely outstanding and should be commended to the highest calibre. I have never felt more relaxed in a hospital as I do at Dubbo Base Hospital! Thank you.

By JOHN RYAN Photos by MEL POCKNALL SIGNIFICANT sports memorabilia is always in short supply so when the Nyngan Tigers Junior Rugby League club received a donation of a signed West Tigers guernsey and ball, members were over the moon. NSW Aboriginal Lands Council councillor Grace Toomey, said she hopes the donation will be the beginning of a tighter relationship between the NRL club and central west communities. Cr Toomey first met the West Tigers when attending a workshop in Tamworth, and fellow councillor Abie Wright helped connect her to the team. “We met the players and went and had lunch with them. It enabled us to talk to them and they said they’re looking to outreach to smaller communities. I mentioned Nyngan are the Nyngan Tigers, and it went from there,” Ms Toomey said, remarking that rugby league is such an important part of small communities. Because of that league

connection with the community, she’s also pleased to see the increase in participation of girls in the code. “As much as we say, ’it’s not all about sport’ that’s what keeps the little kids going,” she said. “It’s ramped up, you’ve got girls interested in tag and tackle, they never had that opportunity when I was young. I’d get flung around the backyard, but I couldn’t actually get on the field.” The Nyngan Tigers will use the items to fundraise for the club.

Thumbs Down to the drivers who can’t, won’t or don’t put on their headlights in rainy or foggy weather conditions. It is usually dark coloured vehicles. It is not a matter of seeing where you are going, it is a matter of being seen by other motorists.

Thumbs Up and a huge congratulations to Dubbo Water Polo junior players Declan McGregor, Hamish Wood, Abby and Eva Osborne – lots of hard work, commitment and travel has seen these four talented young athletes announced in the NSW State Water Polo Squads, well done and keep up the great work.

Thumbs Down to the ladies at a local supermarket who wouldn’t wear masks while shopping. Everyone in the line was doing the right thing but they seemed to think they were too good to be wearing a mask.

Thumbs Up to Aaron and the team at Dubbo City Smash and Mechanical. Fast, efficient and friendly customer service professionals. My car was returned to me like new. Highly recommend this local business looking after local people.

Mere cat? Yes, the staff at Dubbo Photo News had to look twice, or three times when this photo arrived from Jo Walters. “Ha ha, she is deﬁnitely a real cat,” Jo said. “Her name is Luna and she is a rescue kitten. She is six months old and she had just been desexed. “We had travelled down to Dubbo from Brisbane (pre-lockdown of course!) to visit family and she was very interested in what her grandma was doing in another room when I snapped this shot. She's deﬁnitely an inquisitive kitten.” Great shot, thanks Jo.

Rain, rain, go away: “Ever wondered what happens when a full line of washing gets too wet in the rain?” Pip Job asked. Now she probably wishes she hadn’t ever found out the answer to that question. Her clothesline snapped and her clean washing turned instantly into dirty laundry. This photo, taken by Duncan Job, shows just how much rain some parts of the district have had in recent times.

VOLUNTEER OF THE MONTH

SPARE TIME LIFESAVING Daniel McWhirter has packed a lot into his 31 years. He lives in Dubbo but works in underground mining at Cobar as a production charge up operator and production 2IC shift supervisor. Married to Kara, the couple has a 12-year-old son, Izak and Daniel enjoys wood-work restoration, fishing and camping, but in his ‘spare’ time he’s a General land Rescue Operator with Dubbo Rescue Squad. “I have always had a desire to help those around me when I can and have strong interest in community service,” he said, explaining that he was an active member of the NSW RFS for many years before stepping down due to family commitments. “In 2018 I saw a Facebook post from the Dubbo Rescue Squad seeking new members to join and the timing seemed right for me to get back into joining a community organisation. “As part of my role I assist in fundraising events that enable us to continue to provide the service we do to the community, we also

have weekly training and maintenance days to hone and develop our skills, In addition to responding to any incidents within our district that require rescue services to attend, from stuck animals, motor vehicle accidents, search and rescue, to assisting other emergency services.” Mr McWhirter enjoys the “endless” training and life skills that volunteers can acquire within the organisation, everything from the multiple rescue techniques that cover industrial, domestic, USAR (Urban search and rescue), rope skills/vertical rescue, medical patient handling, swift water rescue, general working at heights, chainsaw, and the constantly developing new skills for anything rescue related. “My personal availability varies with home and work commitments, but like all our volunteers I give as much as I can,” he said. “We have to keep up to scratch with our training and are required to maintain a minimum of 24 hours training within a six month period to maintain our operational

Daniel McWhirter says anyone over the age of 18 can join Dubbo Rescue Squad - you don’t need any particular skills and all training is provided. status but we are on standby 24/7, 365 days a year for all emergencies.” He says the role is “extremely rewarding”. “I can’t think of anything that compares to the ability to help someone that is in need of help, and knowing that you have made a difference to not just their life but their family’s life.” He’s encouraging anyone interested in serving their

community to consider Dubbo Rescue Squad. “Definitely get in touch with us, come down, check it out, from being an operational member or a support member, there is plenty to do, you have nothing to lose and plenty of skills to gain, the Volunteer Rescue Association is a second family and a rewarding organisation to be a part of.”

Melinda’s message: Be Gentle on Yourself Photos by STEVE COWLEY

AN appreciative group of more than 80 (mainly) women – with a few brave blokes joining in – gathered recently in Dubbo for a self-care and wellness workshop aimed at delivering the message to “Be Gentle on Yourself”, which is also the title of a newly released single from Australian country music icon Melinda Schneider. The renowned songstress partnered with the Rural Adversity Mental Health Program (RAMHP) to host the workshop, and shared not only some of her poignant songs, but the story

of her own lived experience of depression. Melinda, who is combining the series of workshops across regional Australia with her national “Farewell to Doris” tour – a tribute to the great Doris Day – says country women in particular tend to be overly stoic, and her message on the day was essentially that “it’s okay to be strong, but not too strong”. On the day, RAMHP counsellors and staff shared information and resources and provided pathways to support for mental wellness strategies in a relaxed but interactive setting. Melinda Schneider moved, inspired and entertained the 125-strong audience

Citizens in Covid Australia By KEN SMITH

WITH Mayor of the Dubbo Region Stephen Lawrence unavailable due to a recent trip to Sydney and needing to self isolate, deputy mayor Anne Marie Jones OAM was on hand to present and welcome our new local Australian citizens late last week. Our wonderfully diverse Dubbo population welcomed these new Australian citizens, originally from Nepal, Netherlands, The Philippines, Scotland, Ireland, USA and Bangladesh. Due to COVID restrictions, masks were in place and four smaller ceremonies were held to reduce the number of people in groups at any one time.

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.

NOW HERE’S A TIP Groceries and food shopping can eat up a tremendous portion of your budget if you aren’t careful. The best and most serious moneysaving tip for home economists is to ALWAYS use a list. It really does make a difference to have a plan. Here are some more tips to save money while feeding your family. z Most stores list the unit price on the shelf tag. Use it to compare the cost of different sizes and brands of the same item. Just because a package is bigger doesn’t necessarily mean it has the best price per unit. To prove the point, one of our readers recently saw a popular brand of cereal which had a special price on the smaller size, and buying two of the smaller size worked out to be a better price than one packet of the larger size. z “A secret of busy mums: Cook

once, eat twice (or three times, if you plan well)! When you prepare favourite recipes that will freeze well, or even just elements of those recipes, make a double or triple batch. Then a few nights of the month, you can just pop something in the oven easily. I cook taco meat once for the month, and we have tacos every week. I just freeze three portions of the meat, and the rest is easy to assemble.” – K.S. z “If you know you’re going to make a purchase soon from a speciﬁc store, search online for discounted gift cards to that store. Many people get gift cards for places they don’t shop, and they sell them at a discount for cash. That’s a percentage off your purchase just for preplanning.” – E.S. z Remember that, typically, the higher shelves and the lower shelves at the grocery store house the better deals.

...inspiring locals!

Rhino’s 300 reasons to celebrate By JOHN RYAN Photos by MEL POCKNALL

WELL done to Brett Austin who clocked up his 300th game for Dubbo Rhinos against Mudgee on the weekend. “A massive achievement for a bloody good bloke,” was one description I heard and Brett was ecstatic at the milestone. “Wow what a day and what a night. So just want to thank everyone for their kind words and messages,” he said. “300 games was easy when you play for a great club. Corey Te Koeti, thanks for convincing me to join the Rhinos 18 years ago, g it is the best decision I’ve

ever made. Truly made friends for life. “I won’t make 400 games but I will be at every game and will have my boots packed, Rhinos for life. Love you all. Thanks for 18 years and many, many more to come.” It was a massive day for the Rhinos as they took arch-rivals Mudgee Wombats to task across all grades. The Rhino Colts shone, winning 14-12 in a tight, hard contest. That win augers well for the youngsters coming into the business end of the season as it means eans the Colts have now beaten n both the first and sec-

ond-placed teams on the ladder. The second grade boys didn’t disappoint, proving they had what it takes to claim the win over a previously undefeated Mudgee Wombats team with a score of 16-7 at the final whistle. After those two victories the pressure was on first grade to make it three from three against the Wombats. At the final whistle, both teams had three tries and two successful conversions but the Rhinos finished on top after three top notch field goals were made during the game to put the final score 28-19. 28 19. Well done Rhinos!

Jets raided By JOHN RYAN Photos by MEL POCKNALL

NARROMINE jetted into Dubbo for a match-up against the Macquarie Raiders and unfortunately for the visitors the day went the way of the blue jerseys at Apex Oval. In first grade the Raiders won convincingly, scoring a massive 52 points to Narromine’s 12. Reserve grade was slightly closer with the Raiders 46 versus the Jets at 16. In the juniors, Macquarie was again the victor, scoring 30 against Narromine’s 14 and in League Tag the Raidettes scored 20 as opposed to the Jets’ nil scoreline. But while the Raiders have those victories to savour, the Narromine Jets are looking to bounce back against the Parkes Spacemen this weekend with the club set to celebrate its annual Charity/ Sponsors Day, kicking off at 11am. The club is looking to raise funds for Narromine Rescue Squad – VRA Rescue NSW and also the Narromine Cancer Support Group. This year the jerseys have been specially de-

signed to represent the colours of the nominated charities the Jets are supporting while also paying respect to indigenous culture. The jerseys were the brainchild of local school student Toby Everingham who won the competition to design the jersey. Supporters attending the game are reminded to ensure that you comply with all NSW Heath orders and Jets’ committee instructions to ensure a compliant and safe event. You must sign in using the QR Code on arrival and the club is urging patrons to wash your hands and sanitise regularly – if you are feeling unwell or experiencing cold and flu symptoms you’re advised to stay at home and have a Covid test. Currently masks remain essential, but should NSW Heath orders change, the club will update on the Facebook page. Following the games supporters are invited to attend major sponsor Narromine USMC, where the jerseys will be auctioned off for the nominated charities.

Eventually the fog lifted and the temperature climbed a degree or two. The men got to play in the afternoon, no cold early starts for them. Well done to all, the players, coaches, supporters, the officials and the canteen staff who were there early as well. Once the sun peeked through, toes and fingers were able to thaw out.

Ducks’ honor for Tony By GEOFF MANN THE Dubbo Ducks paused recently to remember one of their most popular members. Tony Wall died after a short illness earlier in the year. Many were taken unawares and in this Covid world there had been no opportunity to gather with his wife Merle to share

Young Ducks reflect club diversity

memories of their great friend. RSL Sub-Branch President and long-term Duck Tom Gray followed tradition, presenting Merle a flag on behalf of the Returned Diggers. The action in the pool was its usual flurry despite the fact that a few stalwarts like Norm Bahr, Henry Willcockson and Judy Walsh were sunning themselves up north.

By GEOFF MANN Max and Lilah Naden are two of the keenest swimmers every Sunday morning and along with Lani and Mia Uebergang not only lower the average age of the Dubbo Ducks, they also bring their strong Aboriginal heritage to the group. All four have claimed points and picked up awards at different times and continue to improve as they share the pool with their elders.

A new month and deep into the winter, it takes a lot, even a minus feel temp of minus 5, to deter most of the RSL bowlers from meeting up with their mates on a friendly bowling green. All bowlers are reminded that it is a requirement to sign in using the QR Code, whether by your u-beauty smart phone or by the manual method when arriving at the venue. Of course, when leaving please sign out by the same methods. Masks must be worn while within the club, and optional when outside. However, the 1.5m rule should be observed as much as possible. Gosh – all this and one is expected to be concentrating on bowls? Yep, they warmed to the concentration, the enjoyment of their time spent bowling, chatting, refreshing and for some – the winning. As bowlers are getting used to the synthetic green, the results are closer, this day there were some very close games, there was some

excellent bowling. One of these games involved Ron Morrison, Peter Bennison and skip – Mel Giddings playing Lucky Leo Balstrad, Pat Sherwin and skip – Roger Sherwin. A low scoring game this one, with a never-say-die attitude by all six bowlers. 3 all at end 5, 8-4 at end 9, and 10-9 at the end. The win going to team Giddings, a good game to watch. The temp warmed as Steve Kelly and Kevin Scott took to the green with Lionel Ayoub and Matt (Spider Man) Quill. Looking like this was going to be a runaway at end 7 with a 10-3 score, Lionel and (Spider Man) Matt dropped their concentration, allowing Steve and Kevin back into the game. End 15 it was 12 all, a nervous last end it was, but Lionel and (Spider Man) Matt managed to put in a good single count to scratch up the win 13 – 12. Another close encounter, Shirley Marchant and Mike Twohill combined to play Dave Davis and Ruth Stocking. The early parts of the game had Shirley and Mike take a good lead, 11-4 at end 7, but a te-

nacious effort by Dave and Shirley brought them back into contention, and with a 2, 3 and 3 shot final ends, almost made a win, but unfortunately that was not enough, losing 15 – 17. Running away to a 10 – zip lead at end 4, Sue McAuley, Doc Livingston and Phil Knight were the goods against Ron McAuley, Karen Greenhalge and Col Cottee. A 5 shot lead at end 11 should have been enough for Sue, Doc and Phil, but – the wheels fell off (as is said), they stopped scoring, Ron, Karen and Col fired up, scoring on the final 5 ends to assume the lead and the win 17 – 13. A really one-sided affair saw Eric Satchell, Gaye Cottee and master Peter Kelly swamp Tom Gray, Ross Pharo and Bryan O’Sullivan, one might say demolished them. The consistent scoring by team Kelly paid dividends, but there were some magnificent heads at times, but in the game of bowls, one must put the bowls closer to the Jack than the others, and this can result in winning the game. 16 – 6 was

nearly like an NRL scorecard (these days), however it is the persistence that gave Eric, Gaye and Peter such a good win. The bowls were packed up, bowlers retired into the clubhouse for refreshments and the rewards. The major reward went to Eric, Gaye and Peter, with Ron McAuley, Karen Greenhalge and Col Cottee taking runners-up. Only three resters had, it is harder to get resters on the new green as the bowl is difficult to stop where one wants it to, but Gaye Cottee and Ruth Stocking (twice) were the only bowlers that could master the feat. The bowlers with the lucky numbers were Matt (Spider Man) Quill, Phil Knight and Sue McAuley. Another week is ahead, intending bowlers are to have names in by 9am for the 9-30am start. The phone is manned from about 8-ish, the number being 5820 0380, or getting to the venue before 9am. Green fee is just six bucks, good value for what is a great socially guaranteed Sundy morning.

The coolest of Ducks Contributed by JUDY WALSH JUST 12 brave ducks took the plunge today, perhaps the others have headed north for the winter. The water temperature is lovely and the company is warm and friendly so come on all you hibernating ducks, preen your feathers and come and join the flock. This morning we swam for the July monthly trophy sponsored by Hot Poppyz florist. Yours truly came up trumps being a very close 0.29 off my time. We also had an Incentive race which was won by Robert Dickerson 0.02 closely followed by Norm Bahr. Not to be out done Norm claimed the final of the 25 metre Freestyle. John Wherritt and Judy Walsh took out the final of the 2 x 25 metre Backstroke brace relay after David Sparkes and Josh Bird broke the time barrier. This Sunday the Emergency Service Relay is on the program so we hope to see our members support and recognise the work these frontline workers do.

Foggy kickoff

DUBBO’S soccer women showed enthusiasm and commitment early on Sunday morning, braving a nippy start with a dense fog at kick off. But what better way to warm up on a winter’s morning than a gallop on the soccer field. More photos on page 52

Here’s what else happens when you shop at your local bookstore 1. You keep dollars in our economy. Based on worldwide research, for every $100 you spend at a local business, more than half will stay in the local economy.

2. You keep money in the local economy Based on good research, we know that for every $100 spent in a local business, $68 is likely to stay in the community, versus $43 when spent in a national business.

3. You embrace what makes us unique You wouldn’t want your house to look like everyone else’s. So why would you want your community to look that way?

4. You create and keep local jobs Local businesses are better at creating higher-paying jobs for local people.

5. You help the environment Buying from a local business conserves energy and resources in the form of less fuel for transportation, less packaging, and products that you know are safe and well made, because we stand behind them.

6. You nurture community We know you, and you know us. Studies have shown that local businesses donate to community causes at more than twice the rate of chains. (BTW, multinational online retailers donate nothing to our community.)

7. You help keep the main street healthy Supporting local business means more colour and variety on the main street and creates more reason for local councils and government departments to support them.

8. You create more choice We pick the items we sell based on what we know you like and want. Local businesses carry a wider array of unique products because we buy for our own individual market.

9. You take advantage of our expertise You are our friends and neighbours, and we have a vested interest in knowing how to serve you. We’re passionate about what we do. Why not take advantage of it?

10. You invest in entrepreneurship Creativity and entrepreneurship are crucial to our economy. Nurturing local business ensures a strong community.

11. You make us a destination The more interesting and unique we are as a community, the more we will attract new neighbours, YLVLWRUV DQG JXHVWV 7KLV EHQHÀ WV HYHU\RQH
