AUGUST 6 is Jeans for Genes Day and, along with Dubbo dachshund Mr Chips, we’re urging you to don your denims and help raise awareness about the fact that one in every 20 children face a birth defect or genetic disease, like cancer, cystic ﬁbrosis or life-threatening metabolic disorders. We snapped this relaxing pic of Mr Chips and friend-in-jeans checking out Dubbo Photo News’ “Support Local Food Directory”. Read more about our initiative below and inside this week.

WE’RE LOCAL and we’re ﬁrst to support local EDITORIAL COMMENT DESPITE Dubbo escaping the harsh lockdown restrictions that have brought many of our capital cities shuddering to a halt, many of our local businesses are also struggling and we want to help. Dubbo Photo News is the only

locally-owned media outlet in the city so we’re in this with you – if you’re hurting, so are we. Over the past two weeks we’ve been running a combined newspaper and social media campaign to encourage local residents to support restaurants either by dining in, or ordering takeaway food – and don’t for-

get, you only have until the end of August to use the state government’s Dine and Discover vouchers if you haven’t already done so. Although our newspaper is

free, we would not exist without advertising support from our local business community. Every day we are out and about talking to local business owners who know they need to advertise but struggle in tough times. With this in mind, we made the bold move to approach Menulog

asking them to come on board and support our town. We are so pleased they have agreed. Each month Menulog will sponsor a column written by Dubbo Photo News, featuring a Menulog restaurant partner.

Stay tuned! And buy local!

TOP OF THE CLASS CSU ranks first for jobs

By JEN COWLEY IF you graduate from Charles Sturt University (CSU), you have a head start on gaining employment in your chosen field according to figures released by the Good Universities Guide (GUG) which has given the regionally based higher education provider a gold star. Rankings released by GUG this week prove CSU is doing a top job in the employability stakes, coming in at Number One out of all 43 universities across the nation for full time employment of graduates. The university has maintained its ranking as Australia’s leading uni for full time employment rates, with 86 per cent of graduates finding full time work within four months. According to the figures, Dubbo’s campus is punching well

above its weight, taking top spot for its undergraduate employment for those completing studies in social work and nursing. Dubbo was also highly ranked in postgraduate employment for courses taught at the city’s campus, including top spot for agriculture, psychology and environmental studies and second for business and management, and social work. The figures also show CSU as ranking in the top five Australian universities in terms of starting salaries for postgraduates, with an average of $95,000. Director of External Engagement at CSU’s Dubbo campus, James McKechnie, says news of the ranking is a welcome shot in the arm after a trying couple of years across the educational sector, but it’s by no means a “one off”. “We are consistently highly

ranked, and we’re often up in the 90th per centile in terms of employment outcomes for our nursing and social work graduates – that equates locally to an average of 50 students every year through this campus,” Mr McKechnie told Dubbo Photo News. “Generally, our graduates are highly sought after by industry, which is exactly what we’re aiming at – to provide well skilled workforce in areas where they’re needed, and that’s important particularly in regional areas like ours.” That graduates with qualifications in agriculture are highly employable does not come as a surprise, with the university’s geographic base in regional Australia. “It’s a focus for CSU in terms of drought hubs, agricultural innovation and IT (information technology) – those are the spaces

we’re trying to excel in to make agriculture an attractive proposition for students. “Adding to that attractive proposition is the fact that they’ll be employable at the end of their studies.” Mr McKechnie says the strength of CSU, and the Dubbo campus, is that it offers studies in practical skills that meet a need in the marketplace. “CSU has a proud history of offering courses generated by demand, and outcomes like these rankings aren’t just a marketing tool to attract students. “It’s also about how we shape what we’re doing, and about how we contribute to those industries that are critical to helping the region grow and expand.” *Disclosure: Jen Cowley is a volunteer member of the Orana and Far Western Regional Consultative Committee for CSU.

MURDER SHOCKS TOWN By JOHN RYAN POLICE have thrown massive resources at solving the alleged murder of a man in Wellington in the early hours of Monday morning, August 2. Emergency services were called to a home on Gisborne Street, Wellington, following reports of shots fired about 3.20am. Police attended the scene and found a 68-yearold man inside the house suffering a gunshot wound to his leg. The victim was treated at the scene by paramedics before being transported to Orange Base Hospital where he later died. In his first day as Orana Mid-Western commander, superintendent Danny O’Sullivan told assembled media he was proud of the way his sworn and unsworn personnel were working to solve the crime. “We’re asking for anyone with any information to contact us using Crimestoppers 1800 333 000 with any information they may have in relation to this investigation,” Supt Sullivan said. “No matter how small that infor-

mation is, you may have the missing piece that solves this puzzle. “If you ring us through Crimestoppers, your call is completely anonymous. We want to know what you know, not who you are.” Supt Sullivan said other occupants of the Gisborne Street home where the shooting occurred

were assisting police with their inquiries. Detectives from Orana Mid-Western Police District and officers from State Crime Command’s Homicide Squad have established Strike Force Clavert to investigate the circumstances surrounding the man’s death.

Massive police resources were thrown into the murder investigation, with Homicide detectives assisting local police.

EXPERTS are calling for a greater focus on vaccinating people under 40 against Covid-19, including children aged 12-15. The Royal Australian College of General Practitioners (RACGP) is welcoming changes to the vaccine rollout, following the Therapeutic Goods Administration’s (TGA) provisional approval of the Pfizer-BioNTech and subsequent recommendations from the Australian Technical Advisory Group on Immunisation (ATAGI) for the younger age bracket. The advisory group is recommending that from this week, children in this age group who identify as Aboriginal or Torres Strait Islander, live in a remote community or have underlying medical conditions receive the COVID-19 vaccine. This means around 220,000 children aged between 12 to 15 years old will become eligible to receive the jab. Vaccine Taskforce Commander Lieutenant General John Frewen has also flagged a change of approach from the federal government to focus on vaccinating “key transmissibility younger groups”, including people aged under 40. It comes following evidence that young adults are more likely to contract COVID-19 and drive its transmissibility in the community. In welcoming the changes, RACGP president Dr Karen Price said GPs would be guided by health experts when it comes to vaccinating children, and added that this vaccine is being given to youngsters in this age bracket in numerous other countries around the world. “Across Australia, there will be case by case discussions between GPs, children and their parents or carers based on individual risk and benefits – this is shared decision making. “We know some children, such as those with underlying medical conditions, are most at risk of severe effects if they contract COVID-19 so it’s vital that they are put at the front of this queue,” Dr Price said.

Queues for loos as Wello park woes continue By NATALIE LEWIS ADDITIONAL toilet facilities for Cameron Park are on the wish list for Wellington residents ahead of the local government elections in December along with a new fence surrounding the park, more security in town, heritage restoration and a harmonious council. Cameron Park’s new toilet block has been a point of contention for locals and visitors after it was built in 2020 because it has fewer cubicles than the old facility which was demolished once the new amenity became operational. Dubbo Regional Council Director Liveability Skye Price said the $280,000 toilet development was part of the Cameron Park Masterplan, exhibited and adopted in 2017. The plan’s aim was to pro-

vide a pathway for council and the community to restore the park’s original Victorian character. Only four submissions were received, with none of them directly relating to the toilets, which were more than 60 years old at the time. “The previous Cameron Park, Wellington toilet facilities were built circa 1960s,” Ms Price said. “The building was in need of renovation to comply with current standards. New public restrooms were included to ensure Dubbo Regional Council was upholding safe, equitable access for all principles.” Ms Price said the facility comprises three unisex ambulant toilets and an all-abilities restroom which until recently required an Australian Master Locksmiths Access Key (MLAK) to gain entry.

“Council has recently made interim changes so that the MLAK key is no longer valid and all amenities can be accessed by all members of the community, during their conventional opening hours,” Ms Price said. She also pointed out there are other amenities in that area for public use. “In the vicinity of Cameron Park, the public have access to toilets within the Macquarie Regional Library, the visitor information centre, the amenity unit adjacent to the playground and in the near future, the Wiradjuri Centre. Once opened, it will also

have toilet facilities for the public to utilise.” The intention of redevelopment in that area is to unite the unused former Visitor Information Centre, which is earmarked as a Wiradjuri community space, Cameron Park, Pioneer Park via a new bridge and the library outdoor room which is scheduled for completion in October. Cameron Park was originally modelled on Edinburgh’s Princes St Gardens and named Bell Park when it was proclaimed in 1882. It was renamed in 1910 to honour Aldeman Thomas Cameron for his role in the park’s development.

SPONSORED SUPPORTERS ST JOHNS Junior Rugby League had a good rollup at its Sponsors and Supporters night on July 31 at the Pastoral Hotel. The club told Dubbo Photo News that evenings to recognise sponsors and supporters are crucial to build a successful culture at sporting organisations, which can only operate thanks to goodwiill from local businesses and volunteerism from community members. The evening also gave parents of players the chance to thank team coaches and committee members.

Call to halve waste is food for thought WHEN you put your bin out in Dubbo this week, stop and think about how much food waste you’re throwing away. According to research conducted by Monash Sustainable Development Institute (MSDI) and the nation’s leading food rescue organisation, OzHarvest, we need to take a good long look at ourselves if we’re going to catch up with the world in terms of sustainable consumption. Both entities are urging national action to help achieve a halving of our current levels of food waste by 2030, and have outlined a number of key areas in which Australia can improve towards achieving this goal. If you’d like to know more, the joint report is called Halving Food Waste: Australia’s progress on SDG 12.3 – SDG stands for Sustainable Development Goals.

COUNCIL WATCH

Council votes homes over hotels By NATALIE LEWIS DUBBO Regional Council has taken community concerns on board when considering future Short Term Rental Accommodation across the local government area. At its July ordinary meeting, council opted not to pursue the 180-day limit for non-hosted Short Term Residential Accommodation (STRA), choosing instead to allow the market to operate. The move follows the NSW government’s review of STRAs in NSW with a view to implementing a state-wide framework to regulate the industry under the State Environmental Planning Policy. Dubbo Region Mayor Stephen Lawrence said council had carefully considered whether or not to cap the use of short-term rental properties, concluding it would have no benefit to the region, nor would it solve Dubbo’s ongoing housing shortage to follow this path. “We have carefully considered the issue and taken advice on housing availability and so forth,” he said. “It’s certainly an important part of the housing mix when it comes to tourists. “I don’t think it’s going to have a tangible effect on our housing issues. We are moving to deal with our housing issues in other ways.” In discussing the matter dur-

Wongarbon’s Peppercorn Cottage is one of the Dubbo Region’s STRAs. Coowner Suzanne Gratton supports council’s decision, saying it would have imposed restrictive trade practice to cap stays to 180 days, “eroding our entrepreneurial character and challenging country hospitality,” she said. PHOTO: SUPPLIED

ing the meeting, Cr Lawrence mentioned the community feedback council had received, and the two public forum speakers, Chris Attenborough and Angela

McAlpine. Mr Attenborough said limiting STRA would potentially have a detrimental impact on the Dubbo economy.

“There’s a significant element of the (tourist) market that doesn’t want to stay in hotels or motels and short-term accommodation fills that void for them. “I’ve heard people say that if that wasn’t available in Dubbo, they wouldn’t come to Dubbo,” he said. “It’s something that’s attracting people out here and using our tourist facilities and investigating and looking around the area. “It’s a different way of accommodating people and people are demanding that in this day and age.” In her address to council, Angela MacAlpine said STRA has a positive impact on the economy. “Covid-19 has seen an increase in the number of days people choose to stay in a location,” she said. “Flexible and remote work has become the norm and with a room for the family, they can work and play. “Motels are less appealing to this demographic who desire space, a backyard and a family friendly area.” Mrs MacAlpine believes STRA caters for the travelling professional, providing a home away from home. She also said it supports local businesses and promotes Dubbo as a destination, along with having strong social and financial benefits.

Dine and Discover: use it or lose it IF you still have Dine and Discover vouchers pinned to your ‘fridge door, or waiting quietly in your phone, now’s the time to get out and about in Dubbo and across the region and use them before they expire. Business NSW says we should all be taking advantage of the “freebies” offered by the state government as a way of supporting businesses impact by Covid-19 restrictions, and reminds everyone that the vouchers – which now can also be applied to takeaways – will expire on August 31. Regional manager of Business NSW in the western region, Vicki Seccombe, says it’s been a trying time for many businesses across this rea, with a survey indicating business revenue was down by at least 40 per cent in certain sectors across the west. Haven’t yet applied for your four $25 vouchers? It’s easy – just go to the Service NSW website, or give them a call if you need assistance.

DESPITE Covid-19 restrictions on numbers, a wonderful evening was enjoyed by members and partners at the club’s 59th annual changeover. In giving her club report for 2020-21, President Caryl Trapman thanked the executive and members for their support during the year. Mention was made of the clubs’ achievements, including donations to community organisations, the national project Cord Blood Research Diane McKeown and Caryl Trapman and the district project. Denise Gough thanked Caryl for her commitment and presented her with a gift in appreciation. Caryl was then inducted for a second term and introduced her committee for 2021-22. The evening was also an opportunity to award members for years of service, these included, Diane McKeowen, 40 years, and Jocelyn Jacques, 30 years. New member Kay Pettiford was also inducted and welcomed as a member. Gay and Barry Pettiford and Judy Pryce Jones

NATIVE frangipani will soon be lining Dubbo’s Furney Street, which will be closed to all non-local traffic until the end of next week. Dubbo Regional Council advised that the street planting will be done between 7am and 4pm Monday to Saturday until August 14, with traffic management in place for the duration of the project. The tree species was chosen following local community consultation and in keeping with the vegetation outlined in the city’s Street Tree Masterplan.

THE second breeding season for the critically endangered Regent Honeyeater has commenced at Taronga Western Plains Zoo and keepers are already seeing positive signs. “We started putting pairs together in late June and have been seeing positive breeding behaviour since then,” zookeeper Kara Stevens said. “This year, we hope to have a 100 per cent success rate for our breeding pairs. “If we can have every pair hatch at least one clutch of chicks each, we’ll be very happy. Anything above this is an absolute bonus.” There are eight breeding pairs with two females currently sitting on eggs.

Sods turned, freight route on track A MUCH-NEEDED multimillion dollar upgrade to the key freight route of Boothenba Road will not only significantly improve safety for all road users and increase productivity gains for heavy vehicles accessing the Dubbo Regional Livestock Markets, but also provide a boost to local jobs and the regional economy at a time when it’s needed most according to Parkes MP Mark Coulton who shovelled the first sod for the project last week. “It was fantastic to turn the first sod for the $8 million Boothenba Road upgrade in Dubbo along with Member for Dubbo Dugald Saunders and Dubbo Regional Council (DRC) Mayor Stephen Lawrence,” Mr Coulton said. The project will involve a realignment and widening of the road, as well as the creation of dedicated turning and deceleration lanes and other improvements. The project received $2 million in federal funds from the Heavy Vehicle Safety and Productivity Program. “The federal and NSW governments are working together with DRC to deliver this much-needed upgrade to a key freight route, boosting local jobs and the regional economy,” Mr Coulton said. “Upgrading this intersection will significantly improve safety for all road users and increase productivity gains for heavy vehicles accessing the saleyards. Investing in high-priority infrastructure projects like this supports local workers, households

and businesses, which means more cash flowing through the local community at a time when it’s needed most.” Dugald Saunders said safety will be improved with the upgrades to the intersection that leads to the Dubbo Regional Livestock Markets. “We announced the funding for this project on the same day Dubbo hosted the Daily Telegraph Bush Summit in 2019, and while a lot has happened between then and now it’s great to see it final-

ly coming together,” Mr Saunders said. “Hundreds of thousands of sheep and cattle are transported to the saleyards every year, and this project will enable a realignment and widening of the road, as well as the creation of dedicated turning and deceleration lanes and other improvements.” The NSW government has contributed $6 million from its Drought Stimulus Package to the project, and Mr Saunders said the work will improve a known

black-spot. DRC mayor Stephen Lawrence praised the collaboration between all levels of government. “Council is proud to deliver this significant project to address historic community concerns around safety at the intersection of Boothenba Road and the Dubbo Regional Livestock Markets,” Mr Lawrence said. “I’d like to thank the NSW government and the Australian government for the funding to make this project a reality.”

Check Fido’s fangs, it’s vital say vets

JUST as humans need to take care of their dental health, so do we need to regularly check the teeth of our furry friends according to vets. August is officially Pet Dental Health month, and local vets say protecting pets from dental disease can save a heap of pain and suffering, for both our pets and our wallets. Dental disease is one of the most common problems diagnosed in Aussie pets and if left untreated it can lead to bad breath, mouth infection, pain – and potentially life-threatening illness if bacteria from infected gums spreads to the pets’ internal organs. The Australian Veterinary Dental Society says dental disease occurs in 80 per cent of dogs and cats over three years of age. Treatment for dental disease often includes a dental scale and polish procedure under general anaesthetic, which ensures a stress- and pain-free experience for your precious pet. While your pet is out to it, the vet can also check for loose or fractured or infected teeth that might need to be pulled. Pets can also benefit from special dental diets and safe dental chews, which can help maintain their oral health. Daily brushing of a pet’s teeth with a toothbrush and specially formulated pet toothpaste is the gold standard of athome dental care for pets.

Author: new work on the way By NATALIE LEWIS

Dubbo author Jacob Perry with his ﬁrst two published books. PHOTO: DUBBO PHOTO NEWS/KEN SMITH

TWO months after the release of his book The Aetherial Construct, Dubbo author Jacob Perry has already started planning its sequel. “I’ve already penned the sequel’s plot,” he explained. “I know what I want to do and I’ve had the experience now so I know what to expect during the writing process.” Perry describes his writing as “violent science fiction fantasy” with an element of horror. “I wanted it to be violent, I wanted it to be clever,” he said of his recent publication. “One of the things I enjoy is when the punches are not held. I want a book that’s not soft,” he said, adding that “there’s an endless amount of violence backed up by the storyline”. It’s certainly not for the faint-hearted but Perry describes it as a “hugely popular genre”. “It’s usually hard to get published in this genre because there’s so many writers working in it, but there’s not many people writing adult fantasy fiction,” he said. Perry started The Aetherial Construct 11 years ago when he moved to Dubbo. He describes

it as the result of many years of work off and on. “I kept putting it aside, I knew I’d finish it once I set my mind to it. I guess I needed to take my time.” The book is not the former crane rigger’s only published work. He wrote Semantics of Australian Crawl which was published in 2017 and he also has another work called Coe and a poetry anthology The Eulogy in the pipeline. The Aetherial Construct is available internationally, but Perry won’t know how well sales are performing until early 2022. “The publisher reserves the right not to divulge sales so I’ll wait until January to see, it’s a process,” he explained. The next step for the budding author is to promote The Aetherial Construct and keep working on his other upcoming body of work. Perry recently did an original author book signing at the Book Connection, and will give an author talk at Macquarie Regional Library as part of the DREAM Festival this year. This will be held from 3-4pm on October 16. Visit www.mrl.nsw.gov.au for more information.

Courtney overcomes triple threats By JOHN RYAN

WHEN Courtney Triplett was 13 she was diagnosed with severe anxiety and panic disorder. Until then, she says she had no idea why so many simple, everyday tasks had been so difficult for her. “Before I was diagnosed I couldn’t even go shopping normally like everyone else and I felt embarrassed because I felt a panic attack coming on every time I went in a shopping centre,” she told Dubbo Photo News. “At school I couldn’t even focus on my schoolwork, my grades went down. When I had to do exams an attack would come on (and) I couldn’t remember the answers.” She realised her challenges became even more complex when, 18 months later, she was diagnosed with an intellectual disability.

“I couldn’t be in a mainstream class anymore. I had to go to a special support class that made me feel ashamed of myself,” she said. Incredibly, things went even further downhill for the young woman battling life on so many fronts. “A year later, a trauma happened in my life and that caused me to be diagnosed with Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD). “I left school and went to TAFE to study hospitality and completed it and received my certificate and RSA and RCG (Responsible Service of Alcohol and gambling).” Courtney said life felt positive and she was feeling proud and good about herself until the chest pains and heart palpitations started again. “I felt scared because it felt like a heart attack and I even had to go in the ambulance a few times

because my panic attacks got that bad. I couldn’t breathe and that was one of the scariest times of my life. “But now I’m 21 and still studying and achieving things. I’m feeling confident in myself. I think this is the year for me!” Courtney says mental ill-health is a serious issue and when you’re affected it helps to realise what other sufferers are going through. That’s why she’s bravely sharing her story with Dubbo Photo News, to get the message out there that it’s okay to not be okay. “We need to tell our stories to let people know what having a mental illness is like. “Mental health awareness is the recognition that our psychological wellbeing is an important part of our own health, productivity and happiness, as well as the well-being of our communities.”

Rural docs arc up with bush jabs city bound DUBBO residents are among those to have had their scheduled Pfizer vaccinations redirected to be administered to Sydney school students in the wake of the current outbreak of Covid-19, and the association representing rural doctors is “outraged”. The Rural Doctors Association of Australia (RDAA) said rural communities would be left to “play catch up” should there be a local outbreak. It says most rural communities have already been waiting months for access to the Pfizer jab, with many high-priority people such as vulnerable patients and health workers still awaiting their first dose. The RDAA points out that “it only takes one drive to the country” to bring the virus to the bush and the incident of the removalists who visited the Central West last month illustrates how quickly rural people can be put at risk. “We need to be proactive and preventative when planning the distribution of vaccines. Every time it is removed from a rural area, another community is left vulnerable,” the RDAA spokesperson said.

Council’s new meeting dates announced DUBBO Regional Council has adopted new meeting dates following the postponement of local government elections due to Covid-19 concerns in metropolitan areas. Scheduled for September 4, the state-wide elections will now be held on December 4. Dubbo’s ordinary council meetings will now be held on August 23, September 27 and October 25. Committee meetings will be held on September 13 and October 11.

Census ticks all the boxes for Covid-safe collection IT’S nearly Census night, and there’s a good bet most people will be at home this time around, thanks to Covid-19. In Dubbo, we’re under less restrictive orders at this stage, but it’s still important to make sure you fill out your Census form, wherever you are on August 10. While this year’s survey conducted by the Australian Bureau of Statistics (ABS) will mainly be done without the interaction of staff, Census collectors who are out and about will be collecting

data in a Covid-19 safe way. Instructions will be sent out to all Dubbo and western region residents by mail in early August, and it’s expected that 75 per cent of all Aussies will complete the Census online – meaning no contact or interaction with ABS staff. This plan was successfully tested in October 2020, when 100,000 households across the nation were surveyed as part of an ABS plan to ensure staff and public safety during the pandemic. People are more likely to require

interaction with Census staff in areas where internet access or postal services are less reliable, and in communities where people are more likely to need extra help to complete the survey.Health and government advice will be stringently followed in these cases. Legitimate census staff will always show official identification and documentation and carry bright yellow satchels. The Census is a snapshot of Australia – who we are and how we’re changing as a nation. It’s one of

Colourful change of heart for Dubbo

By JOHN RYAN COLOUR is in the eye of the beholder and when it comes to saving lives, Dubbo’s AED man George Chapman says having life-saving signs that stand out is critically important. In the past month the Automated External Defibrillator (AED) signs on Dubbo business and agency windows have been changing colour from green and white to bright yellow with a red heart in the centre. The new signs are courtesy of Heart of the Nation, founded by former Yellow Wiggle Greg Page whose life was saved by one of the devices. When Mr Page was in Dubbo last March he told George Chapman that all the signs produced lately are green and white – road signs, exit signs, Covid-19 signs, to name just a few – and they tend to blend into their surroundings. Mr Chapman says when an emergency arises, people need to be able to locate an AED quickly and these yellow signs really stand out much more than their predecessors. “The new yellow signs have also now been placed on sporting fields and all council buildings equipped with an AED and even state government buildings have joined the campaign,” he said. “I hope in the next few weeks both Dubbo and Wellington, including the villages, will be converted to yellow,” Mr. Chapman said “I am hoping in the near future to have additional signage in the heavy traffic areas of Dubbo and Wellington in the form of arrows pointing to the building the AED is located in.”

WHAT KIDS SAY

PLANTING seeds in students’ minds, as well as putting seedlings in the ground, was how Dubbo’s Skillset Senior College participated in National Tree Planting Day last week, dedicating the entire school day to the event. Agriculture and science teacher Rachel Croft said students were rotated in groups, doing a number of varied activities. The day included a presentation to make the students aware of deforestation and the plight of trees and how can help improve our environment. There were some fun activities where the kids planted Bonsai seedlings to have in their classrooms and made some hanging-gardens, and there were indigenous artworks with the school’s Indigenous Education Officer talking about caring for country and about trees as a cultural aspect of life. Ms Croft said the day finished off with a whole-school tree planting, in which would plant a tree at Skillset. “This is very important for us. (These are) the first trees planted on site since we’ve been here so it’s a pretty big deal for us to have all the kids involved in that process.” Rachel Croft says taking a full day out of school really highlights the importance of trees and their life-giving benefits to the students. “The fact that our entire staff is onboard really drives home to the

kids that it is important to all of us,” she said. “It’s not just something we’re running through with them to tick a box. It is very important to us and to their future, so everyone’s onboard, everyone’s invested and everyone’s very passionate about it. It’s important to the kids that we send that message.” Ms Croft also believes the very hands-on nature of Skillset means it’s the sort of activity well suited to the college. “We try to get the kids doing as many skills as we possibly can, we find that suits them a lot better than sitting in a classroom and learning that way so they get a lot out of doing the hands-on tasks.” Fourteen-year-old Year 9 student Reuben Kelly couldn’t agree more. “It’s good to get involved with the school and (in) helping the community, it’s great,” he said, telling Dubbo Photo News he absolutely loves the hands-on aspect at Skillset. “I love practical work. I’m definitely more engaged here than when I was just sitting in a classroom all the time, way more engaged.” He said it’s crucial that local students have as many educational options as possible, because many don’t respond well to the traditional classroom system yet don’t want to be left behind. “I think it’s essential for learning support. These days I want to come to school.”

Youth opportunities helps develop tangible skills

Residents urged to remain vigilant after Covid-19 testing

LOCAL not-for-profits, community groups and councils are being encouraged to apply for grants of up to $50,000 as part of the NSW Government’s Youth Opportunities program. The Youth Opportunities grants provide oneoff, time-limited grants between $10,000 and $50,000 for programs targeting children and young people aged 12-24. The grants will help young people develop tangible skills to support future employment, education and training opportunities. They will also support young people’s participation, engagement and inclusion in the community. Since the program began in 2012, Youth Opportunities has provided $13.3 million to 282 projects across NSW.

WHILE no Covid-19 virus fragments were detected in samples taken from Molong sewage treatment plant last week, residents in the area were reminded to come forward for testing. High-priority testing was conducted after virus fragments were recently detected. Western NSW Local Health District Chief Executive Scott McLachlan said while the latest result is reassuring, testing remains crucial to ensure there is no potential risk in the community. “We must continue to be vigilant because we still can’t be sure where those initial fragments came from, whether that was a resident or a recent visitor to the area,” Mr McLachlan said.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY

REGIONAL ART SHOWCASE THIS WEEKEND

Jessica Moore with some local artists from Fresh Arts. PHOTO: SUPPLIED

ARTISTS are brushing up in anticipation of this weekend’s inaugural Dubbo Art Fair hosted by Dubbo Regional Council at Western Plains Cultural Centre (WPCC). Local artist Laura Holland is one of the exhibitors at the three-day event and described it as a great opportunity to reach a new audience. “We ran a pop-up shop called Creative Fusion last year in Dubbo, which was full of local artworks and it really highlighted to us that people are so interested in buying local and supporting

people who actually make the product, so I think it’ll be awesome to grow the Dubbo Art Fair in the future,” she said. Fair-goers will be able to buy art directly from the artist, ensuring each purchase supports the work of regional visual artists while also encouraging a vibrant creative sector. “We know that supporting and nurturing local creatives, artistic experiences and events has amazing social and cultural benefits for regional communities. Events

such as DAF help shine a light on the remarkable creative people in our region, and give the public a chance to see this creativity up-close,” Cultural Development Coordinator Jessica Moore said. There will also be performances by local musicians, networking opportunities and food and drink from around the region. There are no participation or stall fees, meaning all profits go to the artist. When buying original art from an artist, which is a great, affordable option,

you are not only purchasing something with an inherent possibility for value-appreciation, but you are also showing your financial support of the artist. “As part of our Cultural Plan SPARC, we want to give artists more opportunities to sell and showcase their work,” Ms Moore said. “Most artists, particularly in regional Australia, have to work extra hard to connect with buyers, so we’re pleased to be able to provide this platform for them to make it easier.”

VOLUNTEER OF THE MONTH

A FAMILY OF SCOUTS The Millers are proof that the family that plays together, stays together. They have all been involved with the Scouting movement, as participants, parent helpers and volunteer leaders. John Miller, or Arkala as he is known in the group, leads the 1st Dubbo Scouts while wife Lisa was a leader in the Girl Guides. Their four children Kristian, Ingrid, Erin and Megan have all been Scouts, with the latter now leaders in the local group. John’s Scouting journey began as a boy in Scandinavia with his brothers. “I started as a cub when I was eight years old, my mother put us in Scouts in Denmark where she grew up,” he explained. After attending Cubs then Scouts in his youth, John returned as a leader, initially in Victoria, and later in Dubbo where he has given his time for the past 23 years. He is a teacher by trade and loves sharing the journey of learning with his young charges. “It’s giving back to the community,” he said. “We learn from those we give to. You learn

and develop yourself. And you make lifetime friends.” His time in Scouts has led to many adventures and John has visited Adelaide, Sydney and Elmore in Victoria for activities. Erin (Raksha) followed her father into Scouts at the age of six when she became a Joey. “Back then, Joeys was mainly arts and crafts which was led by Pattie Britten and Denise Hay. We had a lot of fun,” she said. “I went all the way to Venturers (ages 15-17) and four years ago, I came in as an adult helper. Two years ago, I started as a leader.” Erin now leads the Joeys, who are the youngest members of the group (ages 5-7). As a childcare worker, the role is right up her alley. In the future, she hopes to see her own son or daughter join the group too. Erin believes Scouts has taught her resilience, independence, respect, tradition and adapting to a big group. She loves the involvement and has travelled to Victoria and Western Australia to attend Jamboree and Venture events. “It’s something else outside work, the

Photo: Dubbo Photo News/Ken Smith interaction with people is something different, and I love giving back to the community, and to kids, some who are less fortunate.” “It’s something that I can do to help the kids out and seeing each kid achieve something is rewarding.” Megan also followed the family tradition all the way to Rover Scouts for young adults (ages 18-25). At the time, she was the only Rover in Dubbo and there were only six in the region. “Since I couldn’t do any Rover activities, I became a Cub leader (ages 8-10).” Megan, who works in aged care but is training to be an enrolled nurse, says being a Scout has built her confidence. “I have fun with it, I like working with the kids. It’s about the older ones teaming up with the younger ones. I like

passing on the knowledge that I’ve learnt. When they come in, they are shy and quiet and I feel I’ve given them more confidence. It’s very uniting and it’s about putting time into helping other people.” Megan says Scouting also gives you a sense of adventure. She has travelled to Iceland and Switzerland and done orienteering, hiking, group activities, camping and clay pigeon shooting with the Scouts. John says the movement also helped Ingrid join the Army and she visited Denmark as part of her involvement. Kristian is a civil engineer and visited New Zealand. The family has also hosted a scout from Japan. “As a family, it’s been our main activity that I’ve done with my kids. It’s something that we can all join in together. It’s been a family thing.”

Cancer Centre carpark stays between the lines WORK is progressing nicely at the hospital precinct for the promised 350 additional car parks, which will make accessing the new Western Cancer Centre much easier for patients and staff. Work began in March this year when Dubbo MP Dugald Saunders turned the sod, and progress works on the planned upgrades are staying well within the lines, he says. “The new car park close to the main entry point of the hospital is scheduled to be finished in the next few months and will open shortly after.” Mr Saunders says these car spaces will “tie in” with a multi-storey carpark on the western side of the hospital. Patients, staff and visitors will all attest to the need for increased parking and these new spaces will go a long way towards alleviating previous issues with finding a place

to park. Meanwhile, construction on the long-awaited and much-needed Western Cancer Centre is coming along nicely, with major medical equipment now installed and contractors working hard to finalise interior finishes, equipment testing, external façade work and landscaping. Those who are keen for a sticky beak will be able to do so at an open day to be held at the centre prior to its opening, to give the community a chance to see what proud local member Mr Saunders says is “just how amazing this facility will be for not only our community, but the wider western region”. He says the centre will literally be a life saver for people and, while it would be better if its services weren’t so widely needed, “it’s great to know that people in regional NSW will have access to such a wonderful complex”.

History and heritage captured in hospital hallway BRICKS and mortar are important when it comes to building hospitals, and skilled staff from cleaners and cooks through to doctors and nurses, are the glue that binds those built facilities together. In more recent times, though, far more thought has been given to making hospitals happier places in the interests of maintaining good mental health.

The main corridor of Dubbo Hospital’s new Macquarie Building is impressive but it now features an impressive 18-metre display of the health service’s 150year history and heritage. The display was created to recognise the people, buildings and moments that have made Dubbo Health Service what it is today and is the result of more than a year of collaboration and consul-

ONLINE BUSINESS

Right at home with taking care of business By JEN COWLEY LOU Mathieson feels right at home in the role of an online business manager, which is just as well given that’s exactly where her operation is based – at home. In the converted garage of her suburban Dubbo house, Lou’s business, The Administration Agency, services clients from all over Australia and for some, she’s nothing short of a lifesaver. As a virtual assistant – or online business manager as she tells me the current industry terminology dictates – Lou works with small business owners or anyone who has administrative or project-based tasks but doesn’t have the means or the inclination to employ someone to do those jobs. “When they need those jobs done, they contact us and we do the tasks for them,” Lou tells me from the kitchen of her home, where she’s taking a break from “the office”, to which she’s closed the door. “It’s a service for people who wear lots of different hats and don’t have time or can’t cope with having to do everything themselves,” she says, then laughs. “I need to employ myself, to be honest!” With a background in administration, particularly in the education space, Lou saw a gap in the emerging virtual market and took the leap into her own business in early 2019.

“It’s thanks to the digital age that I’ve been able to build a business around what I’ve done for so long,” she says, alluding to the perversity of a global pandemic having opened doors for her that would have previously remained shut, or only slightly ajar at best. “It’s part of a new way of doing business. Back when I was working in the education and government spaces, hardly anyone was able to work from home. People just weren’t open to the concept.” Working from home is no longer the exception to the rule, it’s part of the rule, she says, and the misconception that “working from home” isn’t really working has all but died. One misconception that persists, however, is that business has to be city-based to be successful. “People are often so surprised when they find out I work in a regional area. “There’s this misconception that you have to be in a metropolitan area to do what I do, but you can do this anywhere. “These days, we can pack up our entire business in a back pack and do what we do from wherever there’s connectivity.” Not that working “virtually” from home – as opposed to virtually working – doesn’t have its challenges. Lou says the most significant of these is defining work and home spaces and times. “It can be such a temptation

to not switch off. When I had a nine-to-five office, there was a clear delineation between when I worked and when I stopped. “You have to be really disciplined and set really clear boundaries,” she says, confessing she doesn’t always heed her own advice. Even with the potential for work to encroach on life, the ability to work from home means Lou, who with her husband has a family including a young son, is able to more easily achieve that elusive balance we’re all chasing these days. “I can juggle much more easily,” she says. “We often say how grateful we are because we can go and watch stuff at the school, or go to the sporting events – some parents don’t get that opportunity.” As to her advice to people either considering working from home, or setting up a home-based business, Lou says it’s essentially about setting boundaries. “Make sure you have separate space so you can keep home and work separate. “It really does blur the lines if you let it – so you need to establish those boundaries from the outset. “There’s also the assumption that because you’re working from home, you’re always available. That’s an expectation you have to manage, and again, it’s about setting boundaries very early.”

Online business manager and virtual assistant, Lou Mathieson, says working from home is no longer a novelty, it’s part of the new way of doing business. PHOTOS: DUBBO PHOTO NEWS/STEVE COWLEY

WOOL INDUSTRY

Merino stud is ahead of the flock By NATALIE LEWIS

Matthew and Cherie Coddington are sharing their ‘Lambition’ with the world. PHOTO: SUPPLIED

MATTHEW Coddington believes winning the Lambition Allflex Wool Growers of the Year Award is recognition of what Roseville Park Merino and Poll Merino Stud is doing for its clients in Australia and globally. When it comes to wool-growing, this fifth-generation Merino breeder and his wife Cherie are ahead of the flock, using technology to their advantage by examining sheep genetics to ensure the best breeding and quality wool. They also provide seedstock genetics to more than 600 customers worldwide. “It’s a good feather in the cap for the work we have done over generations,” he said of the award. “It shows we are producing a quality product that’s known globally. We are a leader in the industry.“ The stud was established by Mat-

thew’s grandfather George in 1938 and continued by his parents Graham and Sally Coddington. Following their lead, Matthew was an early member of Sheep Genetics. The stud currently has 7500 head of sheep, twice shorn each year and producing four metres of 18-micron fibre wool. Matthew considers genomic flock profiling to be an important aspect of the stud’s breeding program, which also includes Artificial Insemination (AI) and embryo transfer technology. “If we can’t measure it, we can’t manage it. “From a blood test, we can actually get DNA information, reproductive qualities, growth and wool traits,” he explained. “We do a lot of research and have access to a database of genetics which is pretty complex. “There’s a lot of elaborate things and

there’s a lot of technology available. It’s a very technically advanced industry.” Matthew said his late grandfather would be pleased by their success. “My grandad would be pretty excited. My father and grandfather were both innovators in what they did and early adopters of technology.” With wool growing a recognised industry for centuries, Matthew believes it will continue to be a strong commodity. “Wool is a very clean product, it’s very ethical in the way that it’s produced. The wool market is pretty high at the moment.” And while they couldn’t travel to Bendigo to collect their award, the Coddington family was thrilled with the win nonetheless. “It is a privilege to be recognised for the work that we do in improving the wool industry and the quality of our clients’ wool.”

NEWS OPINION AND ANALYSIS by JOHN RYAN

Malcolm still missing: photo supplied PLEASE NOTE: Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander persons are warned that the following news item may contain images of and information about people who may be deceased. POLICE are appealing for public information to locate Malcolm Hudson, a 42-year-old man who went missing from a campsite near Fords Bridge, north-west of Bourke, in late November 1989. It’s believed Mr Hudson left a camp in South Kerribee. He was in the area for the purpose of completing contracted fence work on the property and had been camping there with several people before his disappearance. He was reported missing to police December 21, 1989, and an investigation commenced, with the coroner at a 1993 coronial inquest declining to find that the death of Mr Hudson had occurred. Detective Inspector Paul Quigg said investigations are continuing by officers attached to Central North Police District, together with the Missing Persons Registry.

“Extensive inquiries have been made by police to date and we continue to seek any information which the community may have to progress the investigation into the last known whereabouts of Malcolm Hudson,” Det/Insp Quigg said. “Any information provided will be treated with the strictest of confidence.” At the time of his disappearance, Mr Hudson was described as being of Aboriginal/Torres Strait

Islander appearance, of a medium build, with short/medium length black hair and a full beard. “We want to provide some closure to Mr Hudson’s family,” Det/ Insp Quigg said. “His disappearance is definitely out of character for him, and police believe someone out there in the community knows something in relation to his disappearance. “Missing persons cases have a traumatic toll on families who never get over their loved ones vanishing. “These families continue with their lives longing for closure or any information on the circumstances in which their family member went missing. “Malcolm’s family deserves answers and we are hoping someone out there can provide that.” Mr Hudson’s family continues to appeal to the public to contact police with any information in relation to his disappearance. “The family appreciates all of the efforts of the NSW Police force in attempting to find answers on what happened to Malcolm. We never stop thinking about him,” a family spokesperson said. Missing Persons Week is an annual national campaign to raise awareness of the issues and impacts surrounding missing persons and runs between Sunday, August 1, and Saturday, August 7. If you have been reported as missing it means someone is concerned about your safety and welfare. It is not a crime to go missing. You should attend the nearest police station with identification so that police can ascertain that you are safe and well. For more information on the campaign visit www.missingpersons.gov.au

Dubbo’s new top cop SUPERINTENDENT Danny Sullivan APM told Dubbo Photo News he was humbled this week to take command of the police in the Orana Mid-Western district. “I’m looking forward to working with the local community to drive down crime,” he said. “This is my sixth command

and I’m certainly excited by this opportunity.” He said one of his priorities will be to ensure everyone under his command will be safe, secure and have all the equipment they need. He also outlined his other priorities, saying community is at the top of that list. “I’m a person who firmly believes in community policing... and I’ll

be working to make sure all the men and women in blue who work for the Orana Mid-Western Police District work closely with their local community,” he said. “When the team is strong and embedded in the community, we’ll work together to drive down crime.” Preventing youth crime and working closely with schools and teenagers within the community to break the cycle of recidivist offending will be a priority for Supt Sullivan. “I’ve been very impressed with the results this command has achieved with its previous commander and I’ll be looking to build on those results.” Western Region Commander, Assistant Commissioner Geoff McKechnie APM, said Supt Sullivan is a very experienced commander who brings with him a wealth of knowledge, particularly in the area of crime prevention. “His previous work with youth in the Hunter region will stand him in good stead as there is a real focus on prevention of youth crime in the Orana Mid-Western Police District,” Assistant Commissioner McKechnie said.

Mumbil’s requests “falling on deaf ears” By NATALIE LEWIS A GROUP of Mumbil residents believe they are not receiving the same level of service as the rest of the Dubbo region, with concerns about sewerage services, road repairs and town maintenance part of their discontent. Local resident Lance Taylor is one of the disgruntled ratepayers who has spoken to Dubbo Regional Council (DRC) about roads, footpaths and blocks of land that are not maintained. “The council owns some of the land, it looks like an eyesore,” he said. “They can’t even fix the roads out here. We live in Mumbil so we are not on the map.” Mr Taylor said the village doesn’t even have the same sewage disposal as other locations in the shire. “We are getting charged but there isn’t a sewerage treatment plant,” he said. “Our rates keep going up but nothing is happening. The only thing we’ve got is garbage collection but the nearest tip is at Stuart Town, 13km away. “We have contacted council but it’s fallen on deaf ears. Most of us feel the same.” Burrendong Hotel publican Mrs Carol Griffiths is concerned by the lack of maintenance around town. “We are being charged for a service we don’t even have,” she said. “We are just a little village out here and no-one cares about maintaining our footpaths. We have to maintain everything ourselves.” Mrs Griffiths said kerb and guttering, water supply and park maintenance are all issues. “There’s a privately owned vacant block that’s overgrown, which has added to the mice problem. “I think it’s worse since the merger (between Dubbo and Wellington). A lot of people have complained but they are putting our rates up anyway. “Mumbil people have been to the council but they haven’t done anything about it.” Pensioner Ernie, who lives 1km from town, has recently had his rating category adjusted from rural to residential even though he lives on seven acres and has a green house, vegie patch and some sheep.

NSW POLICE Commissioner Mick Fuller has made a formal request to the Federal Government for Australian Defence Force (ADF) assistance with the ongoing COVID-19 compliance operation. The NSW Police Force is significantly expanding its enforcement activities in Sydney and has requested 300 ADF personnel to boost its operational footprint. Commissioner Fuller said the NSW Police Force and the ADF have forged a close relationship throughout the pandemic. “The assistance of the ADF has been essential over the past 18 months – particularly during last year’s border operation, the ongoing hotel quarantine operation and the assistance provided with logistics support in the Police Operations Centre,” Commissioner Fuller said.

“For 23 years, I have owned the land. If it’s a residential area, council should have fixed the road, installed footpaths and street lights!” he said. “It’s not fair that the council puts it as a residential area.” Dubbo Regional Council’s website states that “depending on where you live, there may be differences in the level of service”. “This is because council has adopted different customer service levels within the local government area.” A spokesperson for council said sewage treatment facilities differ across the local government area. Dubbo, Wellington, Geurie and Wongarbon all have sewage treatment plants, while Mumbil does not. “The villages in particular have different facilities due to the size of the village, number of properties and location. “The water and sewage rates significantly vary depending on the level of service that is received in each area.” However, while there are different levels of service, council’s “best practice sewerage pricing involves a uniform annual sewerage bill for residential customers”. Water and sewage rates are completely separate from general rates.

The spokesperson said DRC’s operations team maintains the public land assets on a needs basis, with the level of service dependent on the season. “If it rains a lot, there will be an increased level of service.” They also said that DRC plays a role in addressing concerns around private blocks, including if they’re overgrown. “If someone is concerned about a private property that is overgrown or unsightly privately owned land, they should contact council to lodge a service request, and one of our rangers will make an assessment on the property.” They also clarified that during the recent rates harmonisation process, DRC reclassified some properties depending on their primary use. “In order for a property to be rated as farmland, the dominant use of the land has to be for farming or agricultural production, where the primary production has a significant and substantial commercial nature and a purpose of making a profit. Therefore, hobby farms do not meet the definition,” the council statement said. “If a block does not fall into the farmland category, then it must be categorised as either residential, mining, or business. “Rates are determined based

on property value – not access to sealed roads, street lighting or footpaths. Land value is set by the Valuer General on behalf of the NSW government.” Ratepayers across the shire were informed of the harmonisation process earlier in the year and advised to contact council with their concerns, DRC added. Anyone seeking a review of their rating should contact council via email council@dubbo.nsw. gov.au, phone 6801 4000 or by writing to PO Box 81, Dubbo. Appeals can be made to the Land and Environment Court within 30 days of receiving council’s review if it is still deemed unsatisfactory.

One of the latest Guinness World Records holder is a dentist’s dream – meet Minnesota, USA resident Isaac Johnson, the teen with the world’s largest gape (male)! Isaac previously held this record but had his title taken from him just months after getting it veriﬁed. However, almost a year later, Isaac was thrilled to discover his gape had grown enough to reclaim the title with a whopping measurement of 10.175cm. For context, Isaac is able to open his mouth so big, he can ﬁt objects like a baseball, a soft drink can, and even a large apple, with room to spare! One of the biggest questions that everyone wonders is, “Does it hurt to open your mouth so wide?” For Isaac, it’s just a natural ability. “It doesn’t hurt but it can get tired if I open for a long period of time,” he explained.

Facebook’s teen targeting needs tighter oversight AFTER being caught out profiling teens based on “dubious interests”, Facebook has moved to restrict advertising that targets underage users, but Aussie researchers say the move highlights the need for external oversight and regulation. Reset Australia, a global entity targeting “digital threats to democracy”, says the social media giant was profiling underage users based on age-inappropriate interests such as smoking, gambling, extreme weight loss and alcohol, then on-selling access to advertisers for direct marketing. Reset says while Facebook has tightened restrictions around online safety and allowing advertisers access to teens’ profiles, the platform itself won’t stop profiling young users for its own purposes. Reset says this underscores the need for public oversight on how social media platforms collect and use young people’s data, and is urging that as part of its privacy review, the federal government should introduce a regulatory code governing this data and its use.

By KEN SMITH IN the world of music awards, we have the ARIAS, the GRAMMYs, the BRIT Awards and locally, please welcome the DOMAs. The inaugural Dubbo Original Music Awards (DOMAs) are set to kick off in 2021. The DOMAs are the brainchild of SOMAD, the Songwriters and Original Musicians Association Dubbo, with the purpose of celebrating Dubbo’s strong local music scene and those who are supporting it.

SOMAD president Fred Randell said having local music awards was vital. “The team at SOMAD is proud to create these awards to reward and showcase the awesome music being written, recorded and performed locally by Dubbo artists each year,” Mr Randell told Dubbo Photo News. Award categories include the best single, best album/EP, best film clip and most streamed work. Nominations will be called for in October, and the ceremony will take place at the end of November

coinciding with “AusMusic Month”. Any musician living locally who is writing their own music can enter. Artists creating original music from any genre can nominate, and nominees will not need to be SOMAD members. “We aim to showcase and reward the best locally-created music, music videos and live music performances across all musical genres,” Mr Randell said. “Dubbo has a strong precedent of celebrating local business achievements with the Rhi-

no awards and the One Eye Film Festival, amongst others,” says Mr Randell. “Our aim is to add the DOMAs as a regular fixture on the annual event calendar giving further recognition to our thriving cultural scene.” SOMAD is a not-for-profit group dedicated to supporting local original musical artists, the music scene and aim to make Dubbo a Music City. More details, including the award categories can be found on the SOMAD website at:  somad.org.au/domas

Cash splash for healthy local rivers PROJECTS at Dubbo and Toongi have been awarded grants from the first round of the federal government’s Murray– Darling Healthy Rivers Program. One project in Dubbo aims to get local school students involved in hands-on sustainable fishing workshops according to Parkes MP Mark Coulton. “They will learn about threatened native fish species like the Murray and Trout Cod, and threats to their populations,” Mr Coulton said. “These students will have the skills and knowledge

to be future stewards for our native fish. “In addition to being fantastic for the environment, these projects will support small businesses across the Parkes electorate and create real jobs – all of the grant recipients have a strong commitment to buying locally.”  Nine Healthy Rivers grants valued at $279,000 are being funded in the Parkes electorate under the first small grants round of the Murray– Darling Healthy Rivers Program.  Project activities will protect threatened species in Parkes including the

Macquarie Perch, Trout Cod and Australian Painted Snipe.  Two further rounds – consisting of a small grants round and a large grants round – will open in mid-2021. Local projects include nearly $30,000 for the protection and regeneration of Hyandra Creek near Toongi, $55,000 to Warrumbungle NSW government schools for a school and community approach to improving the Castlereagh River’s ecosystem, more than $41,000 to Dubbo’s branch of OzFish Unlimited for native revegeta-

WELLINGTON NEWS Tight-knit band is part of social fabric email wellingtonnews@panscott.com.au phone 6885 4433

By NATALIE LEWIS

PERFORMING at the annual show, Australia Day and ANZAC service, the Wellington Town Band has been part of the social fabric of the community for the past 142 years. President Eric Smith said the group has had its ups and downs in the past year, particularly since the onset of COVID-19. “We had a big break because of COVID last year. It’s knocked us about,” he said. “We went into hiatus early and came back early because we came up with an effective plan.” Band members temporarily moved out of their Gisborne St Hall to accommodate the need for greater social distancing. “We couldn’t use the hall,” Mr Smith explained. “We were using the Anglican Church Hall because the regulation for spacing was different.” This year, the band was fortunate to receive a windfall which has boosted their coffers. A donation of $1000 from the Wellington Soldiers’ Memorial Club will go towards new instruments, while $2500 from the Bodangora Wind Farm’s Community Benefit Fund paid for new carpet in the band hall. “We have had some generous donations,” Mr donations,

ing to have a concert in July. It’s disappointing.” The band currently has 23 members, with about 12 regulars at rehearsals. They play flute, clarinet, sax, trumpet, trombone, euphonium, tuba and percussion including drums and are currently in need of a glockenspiel player. “Getting everyone there is the most difficult,” Mr Smith said. However, the familiarity of the band sets it apart from other groups. “The camaraderie we have with each other, it’s a different circle of friends.” As a member of the band since 1986, Mr Smith loves w what it represents. “It’s almost a family,” he said. “Everyone is there because they love it.

We are not competitive; we play for fun.” Mr Smith said it’s never too late to learn an instrument and is encouraging new players to sign up for the band. “The good thing PHOTO: CONTRIBUTED about music is that

Smith said. “We are pretty happy with the new carpet and want to buy a baritone saxophone but they are quite expensive.” The band has welcomed four new members recently, but Mr Smith said it’s become harder to draw newcomers during the pandemic. “It’s really hard to get people because of COVID. We are still acting under restrictions; it makes it more difficult.” Mr Smith said rehearsals have been impacted by the current limitations and the band’s winter concert cancelled. “We were shutting down for the school holidays but we were hop-

It’s really good if you can set aside time to make one or two hours to improve.” Although he plays saxophone, clarinet, trumpet and drums, Mr Smith admits he’s “not really a solo player” and believes in ensemble learning because “there’s less pressure and more support”. He described playing music as mental stress relief. “It’s really fantastic, I really love it. When you are playing music, everything else goes away and you are in the moment.” Membership of the band costs as little as $30 for adults and $10

If someone is learning to play, it’s a really cost-effective way to do it.” Mr Smith is proud of the band’s heritage and place in the community. “In one fashion or another, there’s been a band here since 1879. It’s something that people don’t really think about. But it’s something that forms a fabric in the town and that town can be proud of.”  Practice is usually held weekly at the Wellington Town Band Hall in Gisborne St. For up-to-date information check:  fb.me/WellingtonTownBand

Plans derailed but Ironbark station still celebrated By JOHN RYAN

STUART Town’s Pam Gough is a member of just about every community organisation in the district and believes locals are incredibly proud of the local railway station, which first opened on June 1, 1880. It began its life as Ironbark Railway until a name change in 1889 and celebrated its 140th Birthday in 2020. “To commemorate the contribution of the railway to the town, a public art work was commissioned

by a division of NSW TrainLink via Orana Arts and awarded to local Stuart Town visual artist and designer, Tim Winters,” Mrs Gough said. “It was intended that this function be part of the Stuart Town Easter 2020 (celebrations) then the October 2020 Man from Ironbark Festival organised by the Stuart Town Action Group. “(There were) plans for the railway station to be open and share joint celebrations involving the nearby old Railway Hotel now arts and craft centre which was also 140 years old. “Unfortunately the well planned, exciting program did not go ahead due to Covid-19 and despite all the work and effort, it could not be held at Easter 2021.” The year rattled on and with rumbles of Covid-19 reappearing, a quick decision was made for the official opening of Tim Winter’s On the Night Train and new artwork by Louise Austin to be held on June 23. The event was restricted to a small group of involved locals and railway staff. Mrs Gough said NSW TrainLink representatives stressed the importance of the western line from Sydney to Dubbo as the main way freight, goods and post were transported to and from central and western NSW in earlier days and revealed that the post used to be sorted on the night train. “Things changed as reg-

ular train services wound down during the 1970s and 1980s,” she said. “The local community successfully lobbied to retain the railway station because of its heritage (formerly Ironbarks) and its state significance being a fine example of a Victorian railway station building and one of the best examples of a third class country station building on the NSW Railway system (now heritage listed).” Also taken into account was the station’s value to the town with the daily XPT service to Wellington/Dubbo and Orange/Sydney. Tim Winters told the assembled guests he has a photo of the old lamp room that housed the kerosine lanterns and he wanted to incorporate that history of the building into his artwork to design a ghost of the old building. He sought to reinterpret the demolished building into a three-dimensional expression combining poetry, history and visual elements. The artist chose Henry Lawson’s 1922 poem On the Night Train because of the sense of loneliness, darkness and mystery involved with the lamp room and night trains and his mate Ian Marr inscribed the poem into stone at the end of the arched work which ties it all together. Wellington graphic designer Louise Austin’s artwork design

represents the significance of railway stations as an important meeting place where people, railway lines and roads meet. “(It was) a most rewarding day with ongoing benefits to Stuart Town,” Mrs Gough said. “Those involved from sections of NSW RailLink are to be con-

gratulated on recognising this important milestone and co-ordinating with Orana Arts to make it happen. “Those involved at Stuart Town say “thank you”. This is a good town and we are lucky to have talented people like Tim and Louise in our town or nearby.”

Bells and whistles barbie ready to sizzle By NATALIE LEWIS

CONTACT the Rotary Club of Wellington next time you want to have a super sausage sizzle. Their fancy new bespoke barbecue has all the bells and whistles and it’s on wheels ready to travel the region. Rotary president Em Falson said the you-beaut barbie was built using funding of $28,000 received through the federal government’s Foundation for Rural and Regional Renewal Program. “We are very excited,” she said. “As an organisation that delivers a service to the community, we decided to apply for some funding. It’s very important to us.” Wearing their distinctive blue aprons bearing the gold Rotary wheel, members love to attend events around the district to cook up a storm – including market stalls, clearing sales, vintage fair and race days. “We enjoy going to sales and events,” Ms Falson said.

“We used the funding to have the barbecue tailor-made to our specifications so that it has everything we need.” The barbecue will be officially launched at a spring-themed market day on Saturday, September

23 in Cameron Park. Member for Calare Andrew Gee has been invited to the launch and it is hoped that Binjang Radio will do an outside broadcast on the day. Ms Falson said club members love using the local park and “the

council staff are all fantastic”. “We have known them for a long time and we have a great relationship.” This year marks the 100th anniversary of Rotary in Australia. The theme for the new Rotary year is

Country Hope

Receiving a diagnosis that your child has a life-threatening illness must be one of the cruellest blows for a parent to sustain. When the Croft family was told about the battle their daughter Molly would be facing, the news was devastating. Here Angela Croft tells Dubbo Photo News how heart-breaking it was to be so worried about her little girl, and how the help she received has led her to do everything possible to assist an organisation that works to help families going through similar tribulations. Country Hope has been established for more than 18 years in the Riverina area but has only recently extended services to the Dubbo region. It provides financial and emotional support to families of children diagnosed with cancer and other life-threatening illnesses. As told to JOHN RYAN.

Tell us about Country Hope. Country Hope provides family-centred support programs and assistance to country children diagnosed with all chronic life-threatening illnesses. We are here to offer emotional and financial assistance, home and hospital visits, emergency funding, time out for life holiday camps (post-Covid-19) and in the worst of circumstances bereavement and group support. Country Hope has been established for more than 18 years in the Riverina but has only recently extended its services to our area. Every dollar we raise in the area stays here to assist local families during tough times. How devastating is it to not only have a child receive a serious diagnosis, but to realise you have so much to learn and prepare for aside from looking after your child? We still look back on the past few years and feel like we are almost watching someone else’s story. This couldn’t really be our beautiful girl who has been through so much at such a young age but reality is it is our life and we certainly aren’t the only ones that have to go through this. We are in fact one of the lucky families. Lucky to have had so much love and support the whole way through, lucky to have been both able to stay down in Sydney with Molly which she battled through and so very lucky we got to bring her home. That’s not the case for lots of families. We were also very lucky that we had such an amazing medical team around Moll, one we trusted and believed in. The doctors said right at the beginning don’t google, and so we didn’t (much). We placed 100 per cent trust in her professor and her surgeon and we focused on the emotional side for Molly. I can’t imagine what some of these other families go through – being separated from family, not understanding what was happening, juggling work commitments and hospital. It’s tough enough being given your child’s diagnosis. You don’t have the

mental space to deal with other worries. I am very much a believer in the fact that every family’s journey is different. We are here to give you advice – we are just here to listen to you and help in any way we can. How much can Country Hope alleviate those sorts of concerns by providing advice and assistance? Country people are so good at looking after each other. Country people are kind and generous and most want to help but don’t know what to say or do. I believe having Country Hope established in our area specifically for country families will go a long way to helping in these tough situations. We want to be one of the first phone calls families make after being given the news no family should have to hear. We want to be there to take away the worry of, “How am I going to pay for this? Where am I going to stay?” – so that they can focus 100 per cent on their baby. Eventually we aim to have a full-time social worker/counsellor based here in Dubbo. In the meantime we will utilise the resources already set up in Wagga

and our committee based here in Dubbo will fill in the gaps. I’d also like to think that eventually we have this pool of volunteers available and when a family falls on tough times, we can help in any way they need us to. How confusing is it to navigate what services and support is available by yourself when you’re working, looking after a sick child and stressed out in every way? While you are down in Sydney, you have a social worker if you need them. If their workload allows, they should be able to supply you with much of the information you need while there. But they are busy and that doesn’t always happen. We want to be there to fill in the gaps. We want to be able to provide assistance when the family first leaves Dubbo, to the family left here in Dubbo and be there through the journey and when they return. Whatever it takes to fill the gaps. Our care team for Molly said to us numerous times that families find it toughest when they return home and they were correct. We are a long way from Sydney and the specialist care you receive

down there. You become friends with other families going through similar journeys, they get you and you get them. When you return home, you leave a bit of your heart behind and I only hope Country Hope can step in here and help these families readjust to their “new normal” as we refer to it. What do you hope to achieve by getting involved with Country Hope? My main reason for having Country Hope branch out to our area is to be there to help other families who have a child with a life-threatening illness, in any way they need us. We were shown so much love and kindness that I want to make sure every family in our region receives just as much love and support because I do know it makes a huge difference to your family and more importantly your sick child. This organisation out here in this region is going to only be as successful as the team we have behind us. We are lucky enough to have had some amazing people already jump on board and have a committee of about 12 people

Help for those who give hope COUNTRY Hope has also been given a helping hand from the state government. Dugald Saunders was pleased to announce that $7500 had been allocated to the Wagga-based organisation to establish itself in the Dubbo region. “Country Hope does amazing work in providing financial and emotional support for the families of sick children when it’s most needed, so it’s a great feeling to be able to provide support,” Mr Saunders said. “We all hope we’ll never find ourselves in a situation to need such a service, but it’s great to know it’s there, and can now branch out and provide assistance for people in Dubbo and the wider central west. “It’s hard for people to reach out for help if they don’t know

that services exist, so this funding will allow Country Help to establish a footprint in our region.” Country Hope general manager Ellie Webb said the funding will allow the organisation to do

some marketing to make people aware of what it offers. “We’ve been around for 17 years and we’re obviously wellknown in the Wagga and wider Riverina area, but this funding will allow us to get out there and make people in the Central West aware of what we offer,” she said. “We’re lucky that we’ve worked closely with Molly and Ange Croft, and Ange has come on board as a director which is great because they’re an amazing family with an amazing story. “There is so much strain on country families when life-threatening issues arise in children, and often it proves too much, but we hope that by providing some financial assistance and emotional support we can help keep families together while they face that battle.”

already. We have also had a lot of support already from individuals and organisations/businesses including Dubbo RSL, Century Batteries and Greenbah Groodles to name a few. The Rotary Club of Dubbo South has formed a subcommittee to be on standby when we need them. They have already been an enormous support and we are very lucky to have them on board both as mentors and helpers. And of course we are very thankful for Dugald Saunders MP and his helping hand. We are lucky to be a part of an organisation that has already proven itself in other areas of NSW. Country Hope knows what works, what doesn’t and they have the experience behind them. We just get to replicate that here in Dubbo and that’s a dream of mine to think it is already happening. Dubbo Turf Club and the Castlereagh Hotel have just announced that we will be their chosen charity partner for this year’s Dubbo Gold Cup Calcutta on September 11, so we hope people get behind this and buy some tickets and or attend the event. Has Country Hope’s move into this region already had an impact? We have already been made aware of a few families that need our help and I hope those families already feel a little less burdened. Very importantly, if there are any families reading this that need our help and want to know more, please do not hesitate to reach out – to me, to anyone on our committee or you can call 1800 007 880 for a chat. ••• COUNTRY Hope received a boost last week with the Rotary Club of Dubbo South presenting a $20,000 cheque to the organisation’s local committee. Century Batteries had made a significant donation to the Rotary Club of Dubbo South, enabling the contribution to Country Hope. For more information visit countryhope.com.au

OPINION & ANALYSIS

LETTERS & FEEDBACK, AND THE TOONS’ VIEWS

Leadership needed to stop abuse of women The Editor, Up until very recently I was a supporter of Scott Morrison, our Prime Minister. Our church here in Gilgandra and other churches have prayed for him to be wise in his role as the leader of our nation. The Bible tells us to pray for those in positions of authority so that they are wise in what they do. I am extremely appalled at Scott’s lack of dealing with the issue of our women folk being abused, raped, molested, or badly treated in any way at all. Every girl or woman in this country, whether she is young or old, black or white, Christian or a non-believer; no matter what she is, is entitled to be protected in Australia without exception. Any decent male in Australia should be willing to stand with any woman so that she is not abused in any way. The same protection should always apply to children as well. Scott is supposed to be a Christian and he therefore should be in accord with what the Bible teaches. It sickens me that some of his fellow politicians seem just as thoughtless and unconcerned as he appears to be. The hurt that has been done to our womenfolk angers me greatly and I disgust myself for not speaking up sooner on this issue. If there is anything I can do to stop men from mistreating our women, I will do what I can to stop it. Dave McCutcheon, Gilgandra

Disappointment over Gilgandra plaza decision The Editor Thank you for allowing me space in your paper to express our sincere disappointment about the decision made by Gilgandra Council on July 20 regarding the Plaza in Gilgandra. There was not one mention of the kiosk that has raised thousands of dollars for various charities in this community. From now on it is going to be very interesting to see who will stand under a pop-up shelter with

their own table and chairs in all weather conditions. Many charities will miss out on fundraising and it was never even discussed. A big thank you must go to the very concerned community with 730 signatures and nine submissions against the destruction of the plaza, and to the concerned public that braved the elements to attend our meeting at the Shire Council, only to be unable to see or hear the video/audio link up. That left a lot to be desired. When we asked if the doors to the chambers would be opened, we were told that it would be cold on people’s backs, what a joke! For the two councillors who supported us, we thank them. This is not over yet as the community is seeking further advice. All we can say is bring on the council elections and let’s put the broom through the joint. I am one of many in this community who has had enough. This community is disgusted. Wendy Earsman, Gilgandra

Tatum Moore standing up as council candidate The Editor, I am Tatum Moore, your council candidate for the East Ward. I’m Dubbo born and raised, have a loving partner, three beautiful kids and a rewarding career in economic development, recruitment, and training. I grew up in housing commission in East Dubbo, the Bronx. I am the eldest child of nine, raised in a single parent household, by a loving, but overstretched mum. As a child, I experienced the traumas of dysfunctional families in social housing; in our neighbourhood we were surrounded by drug and alcohol abuse, domestic violence, and sexual abuse. Fortunately, I received support to attend an Aboriginal girls’ hostel for disadvantaged youth and had the opportunity to attend school in Sydney, returning home to Dubbo for school holidays. I am the great great granddaughter of pioneering Aborigi-

nal political campaigner William Ferguson; politics is in my blood. I have Wiradjuri, Yorta Yorta and Barkindji heritage. Dubbo is my home, it is my place of birth, I cherish it. There is a need for a younger voice on council, an Aboriginal voice, one our council currently lacks. My upbringing, my heritage, the way I look and talk most likely points to the exact opposite of what the stereotypical councillor is expected to be, however, I connect and resonate with a large percentage of our community that is currently experiencing the issues or concerns that I have lived. My life reflects the diversity our council is trying to represent. I believe Dubbo is lacking a representative with my experience and resilience and that’s what motivates me. Our council has done great things, but I think there is so much more we can do, especially with our roads, parks, gardens and trees. More attention is needed in the lower socio-economic areas. Beautification is a big job, and we will have to push parliament for more money, but it will definitely be worth it and will create a positive impact on our town. In future I’d like to see more done internally in council, in re-

gard to creating Aboriginal community recognition, engagement, participation and reconciliation. I want to be a conduit for the people of Dubbo at a local government level, to ensure their voices are heard and we create change. Within the past 25 years, there have only been two Aboriginal people on Dubbo Council, uncles Warren Mundine and Rod Towney; both did a great job, and in part inspire me to step up as a representative for our community. There has never been an Aboriginal woman councillor for Dubbo. There are so many issues that need addressing – bridges, roads, trees, water security, health, youth and family services, affordable housing, transport; the list is huge, but it’s all stuff I want to tackle. I’m standing up, I want to be your representative, I want to challenge those currently in control of these services, to make them more efficient and effective. Dubbo is my home, I want it to be a great place for my children and everyone else’s, we sink or swim together, this is our town, let’s make it the best we can. If you want someone you can rely on, to be your voice, and make the changes you want, then back me; I’ll be the one speaking up. Tatum Moore, Dubbo

Assurance needed to keep rivers healthy The Editor, The Murray Darling Basin Authority released the first compliance report for the 2019-20 water year and found that NSW has not being doing a good enough job to reduce water extraction in the Barwon Darling water source area, and have been told

to re-double efforts. The rules that manage extraction in the Barwon Darling have been a matter of controversy in recent years, sparking an ICAC investigation, and being pointed to as contributing to the Menindee fish kills in 2019. The methods that are used to assess how much water is taken in the Barwon Darling are based on old data that isn’t relevant anymore. It’s likely even more water is being taken than has been reported. The way groundwater take is managed allows accounts to ‘carry over’ any unused volumes from year to year. This creates a situation where an irrigator’s account balance may be several times the total volume of their licence. Rules that are too favourable to irrigators have created a situation where even if irrigators are complying with their licence rules, the total volume of water taken can be higher than the allowable limits. This same ‘carry over’ allowance is being considered for floodplain harvesting, meaning a river would ‘owe’ irrigators water. NSW’s resistance to complying with the Murray Darling Basin Plan is a cause of concern for us here in the Basin, with Deputy Premier Barilaro and Water Minister Pavey repeatedly threatening to walk away from the Basin Plan. We need assurance from our governments that the law will be applied and that our rivers, wetlands, aquifers and floodplains will have enough water to survive. As it is, it seems the Berejiklian Government is content to let the Basin die. Mel Gray, Healthy Rivers Dubbo

Not so sharp caption The Editor, Thank you for your article on sharps containers for the South Dubbo Community Centre, however the caption completely misrepresents the rest of the article. I applaud the disposal facility – I just want the community to be able to collect the empty containers from the South Dubbo Community Centre. As you can see, this was made obvious in the rest of the article. Thanking you, Don Gibson, Dubbo

IN FOCUS THE THUMBS

Thumbs Up to Veldt Restaurant, Dubbo for going to extraordinary lengths to help a sick friend celebrate her husband’s birthday. Natalie set up a private dining room at Lourdes Hospital on a day the restaurant wasn’t even open. Her mother baked a birthday cake. Such generous and kind people.

Thumbs Up to DATS with their performance of Mamma Mia. I went last Friday and it was absolutely marvellous, I enjoyed every minute of it.

Thumbs Down - my pet hate is when the print media calls the Police “cops”. I have noted that your paper has reported in this manner and I ﬁnd it quite disrespectful to our brave police ofﬁcers. News Editor’s note: We do often refer to police as cops, as many police themselves do. This is generally in news analysis and opinion rather than straight news stories where the writing doesn’t need to be quite so formal, and this term is in no way intended to be disrespectful to our local police.

Thumbs Up to a beautiful young gentleman who came to Dubbo Base Hospital, bought a big bundle of new cuddly toys and asked for someone to distribute them to the sick children.

Thumbs Down to premier Gladys Berejiklian for diverting doses of the Pﬁzer vaccine earmarked for regional areas to school students in Sydney. This is a failure of leadership and compassion from start to ﬁnish, you’ve lost me and I’m a conservative voter.

Thumbs Up to St Vincent de Paul Society. I loved the music that played on the afternoon of Wednesday 28th July. Made me want to walk around and enjoy both shopping and the music.

Thumbs Down to the person or persons who removed a bathtub in North Dubbo. It was stored close to the shed, you could have asked if it was wanted. It was. I would like the bathtub back.

Thumbs Up to Dubbo Photo News for giving the locals the news we need to hear. If we didn’t have your paper we wouldn’t know what was going on around town.

Thumbs Up to the RSL bistro. We hadn’t eaten there in years until last weekend and it was a very pleasant surprise, with beautiful food at reasonable prices.

& & Thumbs Up to Dubbo Rhino Lodge Christmas in July for their lovely staff and great menu. A big Thumbs Up to the community radio station DCFM and the DJs. The music is fabulous.

Gil CWA kicking goals during Covid Contributed by HILDA NEWSTEAD, GILGANDRA EVENING PUBLICITY OFFICER PRIOR to the commencement of our July meeting President Helen presented Brooke Woollams with not one but two certificates,as she won first place for her power point presentation from Macquarie Group. As well, Brooke was an entry for the state prize and this year the Embassy of Ecuador judged the power point presentation, which was very exciting for all entries. The first was a Certificate of Participation. The Embassy of Ecuador in Australia extended its appreciation to Brooke Woollams in recognition of her participation in the NSW CWA study of Ecuador,and the certificate was signed by Mauricio Montalvo, Ambassador of Ecuador to Australia. Brooke received total points of 91 – 100. The second certificate was from CWA of NSW Gilgandra Evening Branch certificate of Excellence awarded to Brooke for first in Ecuador 20/21 International Country

Thumbs Down to Gladys Berejiklian for waiting far too long to lock Sydney down. Even in Dubbo we could see Covid was going to explode weeks before she took any significant measures to stem its spread, now we’re all suffering. And after waiting months to get a vaccine appointment for Pfizer, she’s redirected my family’s shots to people from Sydney whose poor behaviour caused the virus to spread in the first place – it’s treating people in the regions like sub-class citizens.

SMALL BUSINESS, BIG HEART We all know that times are a little tougher than normal. The Dubbo community has come together to support one another, and we love to hear about which Dubbo businesses are helping in any way they can. If you’ve been following Veldt restaurant’s social media recently, it would come as no surprise as to why Dubbo Photo News chose to feature Brad and Natalie Myers, husband and wife duo and owners of Veldt, a fine dining and contemporary restaurant experience. Locals supporting locals is a phrase that is used a lot in terms of shopping and eating but as this family owned and operated business explains, support comes in many shapes and forms. Brad

and Natalie are doing what they can to help others in our community in times of need and are setting an example for all to follow. Veldt Restaurant set up a remote dining experience for a palliative care patient and their family at Lourdes Hospital to enjoy a family birthday together. Natalie Myers told Dubbo Photo News, “I think it is super important to support small business in the local community because it has been extremely quiet with the roll-on effect from the lockdowns. It has been a struggle for all of us and now is the time to band together.” Help brighten someone else’s day by booking a table at your favourite local restaurant, a little kindness can go a long way.

THE FOOD YOU WANT. DELIVERED. Menulog now delivering from over 50 restaurant partners in Dubbo.

The idea of Go Figure is to arrive at the ﬁgures given at the bottom and right-hand columns of the diagram by following the arithmetic signs in the order they are given (that is, from left to right and top to bottom). Use only the numbers below the diagram to complete its blank squares and use each of the nine numbers only once.

Place a number in the empty boxes in such a way that each row across, each column down and each small 9-box square contains all of the numbers from one to nine.

ODDS, ENDS & INSPIRATION STRANGE BUT TRUE z Trivia buffs will probably know that Ronald Reagan was an actor before becoming US President. What’s less known is that, prior to becoming the 38th president of the USA, Gerald Ford had a side gig as a model. In 1942, shortly after joining the Navy, he landed an uncredited spot on the cover of Cosmopolitan in his uniform. z Scotland has 421 words for snow. z “Albert Einstein” is an anagram for “ten elite brains”. Hmmm, seems ﬁtting to us. z Your nose is always visible to you, but your brain ignores it through a process called Unconscious Selective Attention. z “Prison Inside Me” is a hotel of sorts in South Korea where people pay to be locked away in solitary conﬁnement for 24

hours. “Jail mates” wear matching uniforms, sleep on the floor in 54-square-foot cells and are forbidden to speak to each other. Meals are minimal – a steamed sweet potato and banana shake for dinner and rice porridge for breakfast. Like any good getaway, the prison stay comes with a souvenir: a certificate of parole upon completing one’s stint in solitary confinement! z Who says there’s no such thing as truth in advertising? Nebraska’s recent advertising campaign slogan, complete with T-shirts and coffee mugs, was “Nebraska: Honestly, it’s not for everyone.” z Tickling has been divided into two types. Knismesis refers to “light featherlike” tickling, and gargalesis refers to “harder laughter-inducing” tickling.

NOW HERE’S A TIP z If you’ve lost a zipper pull, you can create a temporary one with a paperclip. z Remove all of the air from a plastic storage bag with a drinking straw. Slip the straw into the bag and close as much as possible. Then suck any air out through the straw, and quickly pull out and close in a single motion. Your leftovers will stay fresh longer, and foods may stack better in the freezer. z And speaking of straws, did you know you can use them to curl your hair? Wind sections of damp hair around a plastic straw and secure the ends with a bobby pin. Dry in the sun or use a hair dryer on low heat. Remove and spritz with hair spray. z Here’s an oldie but a goodie! Iced coffee is at its best when brewed with twice the usual amount of ground coffee, because the coffee is

diluted by the melting ice cubes. Or use regular-strength brewed ice coffee and serve over coffee ice cubes. They’re easy to prepare: Pour cool brewed coffee into ice-cube trays and freeze. z Lemon juice can bring out the flavour of mushrooms. I keep a little spray bottle to keep lemon juice accessible in the kitchen. I find it’s good for all kinds of things, like avocadoes and apples. I spray the cut side to keep them from browning. It’s also great for salad greens. – T.T. z Make your own camping lamp: Strap a headlamp to a full jug of water. It fills the tent with a soft light, and you can still drink the water! z Coca-Cola can remove blood stains. Pour a whole can into your wash, along with the blood-stained clothing and your usual detergent, then run a normal cycle. The laundry will come out stain-free.

...inspiring locals!

Demons give 110 per cent effort in round 12 Contributed by KORINE COLEMAN AFTER three weeks of no football due to horrendous conditions and then the “C” word put another spanner in the works as usual. Hip, Hip, Hooray we are back on the paddock at South Dubbo Oval against Bathurst Giants for what is set to be a classic as a mullet on a summer’s day frolicking in the pool. Around, around the circle like a creepy demon is there, a one step a two step, I’m going to tackle you right there. Although the Giants broke free, they took a mark inside their forward 50 and it resulted in a behind. We were quick to respond to get it out of defence and a second and third effort on the outer wing from Michelle “V8 commodore” George to handball it out to a midfielder to then send it by express post as “The wind would blow a brown dog off it’s chain” – at least we didn’t have to wait two or three business days to get a goal. With inner horns sticking out, our fast paced mids rallied together and used “The Force” to get the ball inside the forward 50 and straight down the guts – another goal was kicked. Demons up by three points at quarter time. As the Giants had the advantage of the wind this quarter, it didn’t stop the defence from slowing down or attacking hard. Mikaela “Netflix spoiler alert” Cullen had a huge impact on constantly being at all contests and not letting the Giants take a mark at all. We also welcomed back Liz “Back to the future” Kenny who also was strong in defence, tackling as if no one was watching and playing the supporting role with fellow Demon defenders. We kept the Giants at bay to four goals and three behinds. Following a huge first half, lots of water and a much-needed break the Dees were in high spirits and before we knew it, back on the field we went. Plenty of stoppages across the ground allowing for breathers, Natalie “Beauty and the Beast” Alcock-White displayed that great things come in

small packages, keeping up with her opponent and getting in the thick of it all. After tons of contests throughout the third quarter out comes Kaitlyn “Howard Wolowitz” Waldie with her magic trick out on the outskirts of the far end of the forward 50 arc, curved the ball and boy oh boy it

was it a trick and a half, an epic Oprah Winfrey moment. You get a goal, you get a goal, everybody celebrates that goal! Demons trailed by 23 three points at the end of the third quarter. Last quarter and fifteen minutes of footy to go. Demons with their heads held up high, knew it

wasn’t game over. Kristen “ KFC” Coady ran as if the bake sale at the canteen had nearly ended, shouting “Shut up and take my money”. Kristen shut down her opponent, applied pressure and was fierce for the entire match. Demons took contested marks along the boundary line and kept on going, never giving up. Demons kicked a goal and contained the Giants for the remainder of the quarter. The score doesn’t reflect on how much we have improved from three weeks ago. Coach Peter “Happy as Larry” Martinoli was effusive in his praise. “You gave it your all and hold your heads up high, with no consistent games or training due to weather etc in the past six – eight weeks, you all deserve a pat on the back.” Dubbo Demons 4.3.27 defeated by Bathurst Giants 10.10.70 Next game is against Bathurst Bushrangers at 12.30pm Saturday 7th August at an unknown location due to the Bushranger grounds being closed.

Roos plucked by Eagles By GEOFF MANN DUBBO Rugby Club will have all lower grades in the finals but the big hoppers are out. Last Saturday the Roos fell by 40 points to three in a performance that showed how far the southerners have come and what a long and injury-hit year it’s been for the locals. Cowra was led by former Roo Tim Berry who is hoping to replicate the efforts of his 2004 CSU team and claim a Blowes Cup premiership. Dubbo Rhinos bowed out of the New Holland Cup, losing the Minor Semi to Mudgee. The Rhinos seconds will keep the club’s hopes alive in the preliminary final at Bathurst on Sat

Eddie Bone’s dismay at shock loss

By GEOFF MANN

ONE of Orange sport’s greatest, Edwina Bone was chosen to lead the Hockeyroos in Tokyo. It was to be the Kinross Wolaroi graduate’s most magnificent achievement in a magnificent career. The fact it finished with a shock 1-nil loss to India in the first knockout match after an unbeaten run in the Pool rounds left everyone numb, but the heartache for Eddie was greater than for most. The extremely strong player at the back, the uniter of our defence had seen India score in the first half. It ended her dream of an Olympic medal after the heartbreak of a similar unexpected loss in Rio four years earlier. Dad Greg and mum Val hardly missed a second of any game. “We are so, so proud of what she has achieved since picking up a stick that was almost taller than her in primary school. We are so glad she opted for hockey over netball and the rewards have been incredible.” Despite the loss, the tough Hockeyroo will more than likely redouble her efforts with a view to grabbing that elusive Olympic medal in Paris. “It is only three more years”. Greg says NSW country provided a third of the Australian squad. Em Chalker (Smith), Mariah Williams, Kate Jenner and Edwina are all from the central west but when you add Grace Stewart from down south and the Fitzpatrick sisters from up north, it shows just what a powerhouse we are outside of the city,” he said with obvious pride.

Wellington swimmer’s record equalled after 57 years By GEOFF MANN IAN O’Brien was the toast of Australia when he powered his way to gold in the 200m breaststroke in 1964; last week Zac Stubblety-Cook emulated his feat.

Mick Austin remembers swimming with Ian in the old Wellington Pool. “I’d been selected to swim in the Country championships in the breaststroke so at training just before we headed off, Ian said he would

swim with me to give me some competition. He beat me by 15 metres over the 50. I was struggling just to qualify,” he laughed. Ian swam at the Mexico Olympics in 1968 but as a true amateur had not been able to spend time in

training and was not able to repeat the heroics of Tokyo. “He had to work,” Mick said. Ian O’Brien, Wellington and breaststroke are etched into the annals of Australian Sporting lore.

He is an inductee in the International Swimming Hall of Fame, has been recognized in the Australian Sporting Hall of Fame and been presented with a National Sports Medal. Ian forged a successful career as a television and

movie cameraman and broke new ground in the industry when he established a new-age high tech vision company called Videpac. The greatest breaststroker in Australia lives now in Sydney.

Sundee Combo: Weather rolls a surprise curve ball Contributed by ‘PISTOL PETE’ BOWLS are designed to travel in a curved path because they are biased; the bowlers, however, tare always straight down the line! Dubbo’s RSL Combination bowlers had a golden glow about them as they gathered to discuss Australia’s Olympic haul before setting foot on the greens. Adrenaline flowed as they prepped their hands with “Grippo” and went through their regular pre-event rituals, tuning minds and muscles. It was just so exciting! Last Sunday, not only did horses become one year older, our true thoroughbred Ron McAuley ticked up number 84. Congratulations Ron. You’re still as sprightly and enthusiastic a bowler as ever! A record for the North Dubbo RSL Sporties Sundee Combo was set when 46 bowlers rocked up for

a bowl or three. They expected sunshine and stillness but when the temperature dropped and the clouds arrived, the brave continued on bravely. Ron McAuley, Karen Greenhalge and Pete Ruzans raced out to a 12 – 3 lead against Shirley Marchant, Gaye Cottee and Ricky See after End 7 and by 15, they had taken it to 15 – 8. With Shirley getting used to her new bowling stick her team put up a strong fight. Skip Rick sensed a weakness creeping into their opponents and drew within three at the second to last end before Ron and Karen recovered, recording three shots and a 21-15 win. It was a smiling Ron McAuley who celebrated his birthday at the post-match drinks. Paul Woodridge and Ruth Stockings stunned the strong pairing of Ross Pharo and Peter Sinclair to lead 13 – 1 after 7 ends but this great “game of two halves” came

to the fore again. Ross and Peter turned on the afterburners, scored on each of the next seven to lead 17 – 13 and held on to win 17-15. On the next green, Cheryl Storch played with Colleen Heatrick and Phil Knight against Helen Emblem, Gary Huggins and Roger Shirwin. Phil’s team held a handy 12-6 lead at the halfway mark and maintained their potency, scoring on 10 of the 16 ends to win 15 – 10. It must be said though that Helen, Gary and Roger “left nothing on the green”! Tom Hando was lead for Dave Davis and Col Dover; Frank Vaughn was the same for Kevin Heatrick and Ron Millgate, who made a most welcome return to the Combo. Kevin and Colleen Heatrick wandered over from Narromine to enjoy some of the same and were impressed with what they saw. This turned out to be another ‘game of halves’. Kevin had his team ahead 12 – 5 before the

wheels fell off with Tom, Dave and Col getting the win 19 – 15. Marion Carolan and John Cole combined with skip Lionel Ayoub in the attempt to defeat Bryan O’Sullivan, Julie Brown and Gordon Scott. They were jumping with joy at End 8 holding a three shot lead and up 14-9 after 11. The watermelon smiles were overturned in the last five ends as Bryan, Julie and Scott scored 13 shots and won 22 – 14. Ron Morrison, Steve Kelly and Col Cottee’s plan to control their game against Frank Armstrong, Allan Stratford and Kevin Scott was not looking good when they were 11 shots down after five ends. The longer the game went, the worse it got! They were 21 shots down by end 13, and although a change of plans netted a four then a two, the match went to Ron and his team 25-10. Beryl Scott, Mel Giddings and multi-award-winning Eric

Satchell proved too good for Pat Shirwin, N. Hazelton and Mike Twohill. Team Eric rolled out to a 14-1 margin and held that till the finish. Final score 20 – 12. “Lucky” Leo Balstrad led Doc Livingston and Chris Cristante onto the green against Sue McAuley, Peter Bennison and Peter Kelly. Rink 13 proved to be a lucky number for the Kelly gang however who powered off the mat but were held to 8-all after 7, then added a super 6 shot end followed by a 4 to score a dominant win by 23 shots to 14. z Top of the class – Ron Morrison, Steve Kelly and Col Cottee (25 points) z Almost top of the class – Beryl Scott, Mel Giddings and Eric Satchell (19 points) z Resters – Shirley Marchant and Peter Kelly (who had two of his bowls on the jack at the same time!)

“Go Jack, Go Jack, Go Jack”

By GEOFF MANN ANYONE in the vicinity of St Joseph’s School, Nyngan last Wednesday morning were in no doubt as to the students’ favourite former pupil. Their chants rang

out as Jack Hargreaves became a member of the legendary Oarsome Foursome. Jack attended the small school during his primary years, played all sports including swimming, cricket and rugby before head-

ing off to the famous St Joseph’s Hunters Hill. “I tried out for rowing and never wanted to play another sport,” the humble champion recalled. Jack arrived home late on Sunday afternoon and joined me on

ABC Western Plains early Monday morning. The “parents of Jack”, Jenny and Peter, were in Brisbane with other rowing families including Jim and Jane O’Brien whose son Jack was in the final of the eights.

Spurs and Bulls set for ﬁnals showdown ORANA Spurs lead Western Premier League Football by two points from Orange Waratahs with defending premiers Dubbo Bulls a further two points behind. If Bulls can down Waratahs in the last round in a fortnight they could be level and goal averages would be needed to see who will finish second although Waratahs hold a significant advantage. In last week’s games Spurs blasted Lithgow Workies 6-0 while Bulls had the bye. In other results Parkes held on 1-0 against Macquarie United and there were wins for Bathurst Panorama and Barnestoneworth as play resumed following the lockdown in three LGAs. Spurs play Barnestoneworth FC in Orange this week then host Parkes in the last round. Bulls should beat Panorama at home before travelling to Orange to try and build some momentum against arch-rivals Waratahs heading into the finals.

Two Ms em-brace relay By GEOFF MANN THE final of the twoby-50 metre Breaststroke brace relay saw Max Naden and Mark Prentice outlast the breakers to claim “a famous victory”! Mark backed up to claim the blue riband 50 metre freestyle, taking the gold medal from Peter Allen who went out

“a tad too fast”. Treasurer Robert Dickerson demonstrated his number crunching skills to swim closest to time in the 50 metre Backstroke while the ever-consistent Norm Bahr won the 25 metre Freestyle. Norm seems to have grown an extra leg in recent months coinciding with the resurgence by DCE’s

Sea Eagles. “You can take the boy from the beach, but Norm has always loved Manly and it showed when he grabbed the July points score. This Sunday is the JP Upholstery August trophy followed by a Duck’s meeting and lunch in the RSL Bistro and a chance to reflect on Australia’s flying Olympic fish. Max Naden and Mark Prentice.

Dubbo basketballer’s daughter is a gem! By GEOFF MANN HELEN Crooks is the mother of an Australian Opal! The strapping St Johns College student who earned her stripes on the basketball courts at the PCYC, the old Royal Theatre and on the outdoors arena behind where Coles now stands was quite a player. So good in fact she was selected for Country and NSW in the U19s in 1979. Helen’s career continued with the Dubbo Rams team in the State League before she moved to Newcastle and played in the Continental Basketball Association. Helen then chose a career and family and has dug up a real gem. Katie-Rae Ebzery followed in her footsteps, excelling throughout her junior years at the Broadmeadow Stadium and was spotted by the Basketball selectors during her Newcastle team’s amazing run to finish third in the National Club titles. Helen says Katie-Rae always loved basketball. “She was a great learner, highly motivated and loved to train so it was no surprise when the Australian Institute of Sport (AIS) offered her a scholarship when she was 15. “It wasn’t ideal that she had to be away from home but the sacrifice was worth it. Katie ran into

the great Lauren Jackson in her time in Canberra.” Almost literally it seems, according to a proud mum. “She played for the AIS against Lauren and the Canberra Capitals when she was in Year 12 and was selected to represent Australia at the U19 World Championships in 2007.” Katie-Rae was lured to Victoria to play with Dandenong Rangers but decided to have a year off to regain her love for the game she had played since a child. “Katie was a bit disappointed about where she was going so decided to take some time out. It was a very mature decision and has paid huge dividends for her.”

Katie went to TAFE at Tighes Hill in Newcastle and obtained a Cert 3 / 4 Diploma in Fitness. This enabled her to regain her love for basketball and she was picked up by the Sydney Uni Flames when she was studying to become a PE Teacher. “Katie was always chasing her dream so travelled to Russia to play but returned to Sydney after one season and then played with Perth Lynx. Unfortunately it was a long way from home and all our plans to visit her were canned once Covid hit and Katie-Rae and her partner returned to Newcastle last year.” Katie-Rae and the Opals have faced many challenges since the

pandemic hit and international borders closed but they continued to prepare for the Olympics and spent some time in Las Vegas before setting off to Tokyo. “It hasn’t been the ideal preparation for the Opals. Some of the trial matches in the US had to be cancelled and it was a similar story when they arrived in Japan, so for them to have achieved what they have has been incredible. The loss of WNBA star Liz Cambage just before tip-off in the Games was a distraction but the girls are so focussed and so determined that it has probably been more of a help than a hindrance,” Helen said. It is a wonderful story of a

young basketballer dreaming the dream her Dubbo mum probably held 30 or 40 years ago. Helen and her brothers and sisters were all active in the local sporting scene. Brothers Robert, Lloyd (dec) and Mitchell and sister Margaret were all into sport. “Rob and the boys really got hooked on volleyball when they went to South High for Year 11 and 12 but they also played basketball in local teams.” Helen remembered playing in the Red and White PCYC colours in junior state league and with the Dubbo Rams who went right to the top in NSW. “Sharon Fardell (O’Brien), Lisa Snare, Linda Macadam and Margie Duffy (O’Connor) were in that team and we had the Narromine ‘tall timbers’, Wendy Weir and Pam Mills who added height and strength to our State League team. They were good days and cemented in me a lifelong love of the boards and the elusive ring.” Helen maintains an active interest in the sport having served as the President of City Limits Club in Newcastle for the past few years whilst coaching Div 2 rep girls and the U12 Division 2 and three teams.
