A TRADIE WE ALL CAN TRUST

PHOTO: DUBBO PHOTO NEWS/STEVE COWLEY

By JOHN RYAN A MYSTERY Orange man has donated $10,000 to Tradies In Sight and he hopes that money will kick off a successful crowdfunding/ GoFundMe campaign so the organisation’s founder Bruno Efoti can

work full time at the role of suicide prevention as well as helping at-risk youth ﬁnd pathways into long-term employment. The man, a former Dubbo resident, said he and his wife have seen the amazing work Mr Efoti has done in the community to prevent tradies

taking their own lives, and are committed to his cause. “The donation was made once we understood that Bruno’s funding was about to stop. The work he does is far too important and can be seen in the lives he has changed through Tradies In Sight,” the donor

told dubbo Photo News. Since that donation, and even before Dubbo Photo News officially launches the fundraising campaign for Tradies in Sight, that $10,000 has almost doubled.

Caves complex Snap lockdown in place for Dubbo Local Government Area is ‘ﬁrst-class’ By JOHN RYAN A SNAP lockdown was ordered for the Dubbo Local Government Area (LGA) from 1pm yesterday (Wednesday, August 11) after two positive Covid-19 cases were confirmed in the city. The Education Department was told by NSW Health that someone working at Dubbo West

Public School had tested positive to Covid -19 which meant a shut down at that school on August 11 as a precautionary measure, with all staff and students called on to self-isolate. Families with students attending Macquarie Anglican Grammar School hit social media after being told that school would be closed on August 11 for deep

cleaning after advice from the Public Health Unit that a student at the school had been recognised as a close contact of a person who has tested positive for Covid -19. Hard on the heels of the first confirmed case, came a second. The person is a household contact of the person confirmed with Covid-19 on the evening of Au-

gust 10. At time of going to press, several close contacts had been identified, were in isolation and had either been tested or were having testing arranged urgently. Investigations and contact tracing are ongoing, and more close and casual contacts may be identified. Continued page 2

Future Drought fund EOIs open EXPRESSIONS of interest are invited for projects to manage and prepare for the impacts of drought through the federal government’s $5 billion Future Drought Fund (FDF). Minister for Agriculture and Northern Australia David Littleproud said the Drought Resilience Innovation Grants would drive development, extension, adoption and commercialisation of drought resilience practices and technologies. “If we want our Australian farmers – and the communities and businesses that depend on them – to thrive through future droughts, we need new ideas, practices, technologies and ways of doing business,” Minister Littleproud said. “Innovation is critical to our agriculture sector. We are looking for those bright sparks out there with ideas that could transform agricultural practices, technologies and business models.” For more information, visit www.communitygrants.gov.au

Snap lockdown for Dubbo LGA From page 1

Several venues of concern have already been identified and further sites and details may be added as investigations continue. Anyone who was at the following venues on the dates and during the times listed is urged to immediately get tested and self-isolate until you receive further advice from NSW Health: z Don Crosby Veterinary Surgery, 327 Darling Street Dubbo. August 7, 8.57am to 9.45am z The Harvest Café, 64 Palmer Street Dubbo. August 7, 9.52am to 10.10am z Ashcrofts IGA, 95 Tamworth Street Dubbo. August 8, 12.35 to 12.52pm z Tim Koerstz Pharmacy, 98 Tamworth Street Dubbo. August 9, 1pm to 1.15pm z Covid Safe Clinic, 77 Myall Street Dubbo. August 10, 7.45am to 8.32am. Dubbo MP Dugald Saunders said residents of the Dubbo LGA – as well as anyone who has visited localities within the LGA since Sunday, August 1 – will have to abide by the stay-at-home orders. The restrictions are the same as those currently being undertaken in Greater Sydney and other parts of regional NSW. “Unfortunately we have had two confirmed cases of COVID-19 in the community, and first and foremost my thoughts are with those people and I hope they get well soon and have a speedy recovery,” Mr Saunders said.

Dubbo Showground was so packed police had to regularly close the facility in blocks of 30 minutes to allow room to be made for extra cars to drive in. PHOTO: DUBBO PHOTO NEWS

“These cases are not thought to be linked to the positive sewage tests announced in recent days, so staff from NSW Health are working to try and trace the source. “As a result of those confirmed cases, we’ve moved quickly to put the stay-at-home orders in place, but the messaging remains the same as it has been. If you feel unwell, get tested and isolate and if you have to go out for a legitimate reason, do what you need to do, wear a mask and go straight home again. He said it was wonderful to see so many people heeding the advice and lining up for tests on Wednesday morning as the news circulated through the community. “It is important that that continues because the only way we can get in front of this is by peo-

ple coming forward and ensuring we are aware of any other cases that may be in our community,” Mr Saunders said. Under the orders, if leaving the home to go shopping, residents must stay within their LGA or within 10km of home. Only one person per household may leave their home each day to shop for food or other goods and services. You may take a dependent person with you if that person cannot be left at home on their own. If you’re leaving the home for exercise, residents must stay within their LGA or within 10km of home. You can exercise with one other person that you do not live with. You can exercise in a group of more than two if all are from the same household. Most retail premises will be re-

quired to be closed to the public. Businesses providing essential products and services that can be open include: z supermarkets z grocery stores including: butchers, bakeries, fruit and vegetable, seafood; other food or drink retailers that predominantly sell or display food or drinks z kiosks and other small food and drink premises z petrol stations z banks and financial institutions z hardware, building supplies z landscaping material supplies z agricultural and rural supplies z shops that, in the normal course of business, operate as or sell and display: pet supplies, newsagents, office supplies, chemists providing health, medical, maternity and baby supplies; or liquor stores z post offices z garden centres and plant nurseries z vehicle hire premises, not including the premises at which vehicles are sold z shops that predominantly carry out repairs of mobile phones z laundromats and drycleaners Businesses may continue to operate if they provide goods and services to customers that are: z ordered by phone or internet z delivered to customers z collected by customers. ••• See the Dubbo Photo News facebook page for more details and updates over the next week.

Covid-safe site By JOHN RYAN THE Covid-testing service at Dubbo Hospital is no more, having shifted half a block east to a building in the Manera Plaza on Myall Street in a bid to increase the capacity of the service as well as provide a focus on patient, staff and community safety. From last Monday the COVID SAFE testing clinic has been operating at the old specialist medical centre at Menara Plaza with opening hours from 8am-4.30pm, seven days a week. This means Covid-19 testing services are no longer available at the hospital. Dubbo Health Ser-

vice Director of Nursing and Midwifery Samantha Quarmby told Dubbo Photo news the relocation of the Covid-safe testing clinic will allow staff to test more people. “The new site will be a walk-in clinic with no appointment necessary and will provide more access to testing for the entire community, including those relying on public transport,” she said. “The community’s safety is our main priority and the relocation of our Covid-safe clinic will also allow us to increase capacity and resources for testing if, or whenever, it is necessary.” She says the new site

will work in conjunction with the drive-through testing site at the Dubbo Showground and medical staff are hoping for widespread testing, which she says is crucial. “Not just right now but always, to ensure we can detect any possible cases of Covid-19 as early as possible and ensure our communities’ safety.” Symptoms associated with Covid-19 include fever, cough, breathing difficulties, sore throat, loss of smell or taste, runny nose, diarrhoea, nausea, vomiting and fatigue.

TWO meetings will be held in September to discuss the proposed sale of the Narromine Country Women’s Association (CWA) rooms. The premises at the corner of Nymagee St and Third Ave are currently leased to a local business with branch members meeting monthly at the Narromine United Services Memorial Club (USMC). Branch president Jean Richardson said it was time for members to decide whether to sell or continue leasing the building. “The main reason they are being sold is because membership is declining. Members are all getting older and we can’t go on forever raising money for the upkeep,” she told Dubbo Photo News. The Narromine Branch of CWA has worked tirelessly for many years to assist a range of community groups and causes in the local community. Their school annual public speaking competition has been running for the past 12 years and has expanded to include the Oxley, Central and Far West groups. They have also established the Gwennyth Campbell Memorial Scholarship Fund in honour of their former president, with $500 awarded to a worthy Year 12 student for the purpose of further education and training. The group also does Meals on Wheels in town. “Selling the rooms does not mean the branch is folding,” Mrs Richardson said. “It is still a functioning branch. Even with a small membership, it will continue.” The upcoming special meetings are to be held at 10am on September 3 and September 20 at Narromine USMC. Contact Jean Richardson on 6889 7378 or 0456 876 970 to enquire about membership or the sale of the building. The Narromine CWA meets on the first Friday of the month, 9.30am cuppa, 10am start. New members are always welcome.

TRIVIA TEST 1 2 3 4 5

By JOHN RYAN HOLLY Low has come a long way from the Dubbo schoolkid who grew up representing Dubbo in hockey and who, as a former St Johns Primary, College and Senior Campus student also participated in archery and dancing in those years. Her passion was always for the dream of joining the Australian Army, and last week, the 18-yearold graduated at Kapooka Army Base. “From the age of five I had always dreamed of joining the army,” she told Dubbo Photo News. “I joined army cadets at 13 and that’s where the love for the army began. “As I was finishing Year 11, I realised I didn’t want to finish Year 12 and would rather enlist and start my Defence Force career.” She arrived at the army base on April 6 this year and said she’ll always remember that day. “Kapooka is certainly not for the faint-hearted but as the weeks and months go past, army life gets easier and you adapt,” she said, singling out challenges such as the bayonet assault course and the 10-day field course where participants were faced with wet and cold conditions the whole time, all whilst conducting section attacks and engaging in different situations which soldiers may come across in their army careers. “It was interesting to see and participate in sections communicating and working together during these challenging times,” she said. “I took on the challenges and I now look back and see Kapooka as the best experience. “I believe Kapooka is an experience many should try as it exposes you to new challenges that will help you in the future and create new bonds with mates that will last for life.” Holly has now graduated as a sapper in the engineering corp and will complete her trade as an electrician, which entails eight years of service. The first three years is on the job training, then she’ll be posted to a unit which could be anywhere in Australia or overseas. “I’ve made heaps of mates

throughout these few months at Kapooka. We all found it hard at times but we understand that if we fall, there’s always mates there to push you through and help you back up. These mates of mine I will have for life.” Mum Mel Hancock said Holly’s graduation parade was a bittersweet experience thanks to Covid-19. The Army began allowing two family members to attend march outs again in March/April this year. “It was such great news to hear and there was some friendly jostling in the family about who the two would be,” she said. “When the current outbreak started we weren’t too worried as we had seen other outbreaks reeled in fairly quickly but as time progressed and the cases grew, so did our concerns about attending. “Family (members) from interstate (Holly’s sister and grandfather) could no longer attend due to border restrictions which was very sad for them.” Mel chatted with the families of other recruits and found everyone was in the same boat, very edgy about attending and those fears were well founded as a week out from the march the army decided to stop families attending.

When is hogmanay celebrated in Scotland? Who played Peter Pan in the 2003 movie of the same name? Who plays Frodo Baggins in “The Lord of the Rings” movies? How would you describe the colour sorrel? Polynesia is one of three groups of Paciﬁc islands. What are the other two? What do the letters MLA stand for? From which country does Jarlsberg cheese come? What is taffeta? Is Loy Yang a philosopher, a power station or a card game? What is a moniker?

“I was devastated! Holly rang me and we were both in tears,” she said. “On top of that, the army was not allowing recruits local leave to see families. A couple of days before the march out Holly rang me and said the army had granted local leave. Relief! More tears. I was going to see my girl and so grateful I lived in regional NSW which has minimal Covid-19 restrictions.” The family quickly rebooked a c c o m m o d at i o n and made plans with work to take time off, packed up the car with the dog and cat (Burt and Ernie) and road tripped to Wagga. Mel and her eldest daughter, Liz, FaceTimed as they watched the live stream of Holly’s march out, accompanied she said, with more tears of pride. After the march-

out, the recruits were dropped into Wagga where they could meet up with Holly in person. It was the first time in four months they’d seen each other, a long time seeing as Holly had never previously spent more than two weeks away from her mum. “It was so good to hug and hold her again and spend a couple of days hanging out. Holly’s paternal grandmother, aunty and cousin joined us for Friday and Saturday which was so nice,” Mel said. “I’m so proud of Holly. I’m proud of her for having the courage to follow her dreams, to take control of her life at such a young age, leave home and begin a career in the army. “The first step has been a challenging one for her, with Kapooka testing her limits. “I’m proud of her passing all the requirements of Kapooka and marching out. Holly has plans post-army which I think is commendable for a woman at her age.” Holly continues in the steps of her family with her great, great grandfather fighting in WWI in the Camel Corps and Lighthorse and her great grandfather who fought in WWII, also as a sapper.

“Have faith”: urgent call for vaccination UNHELPFUL misinformation about the safety of the Astra Zeneca vaccine for Covid-19 has not deterred Dubbo MP Dugald Saunders from rolling up his sleeve for his first shot, which he says is also his way contributing to the best shot this city, region and state have at getting back to some semblance of normality. Earlier this week, the local representative and father of two saddled up for his first jab of the AstraZeneca, a choice he says was made based on his confidence in the safety of the Oxford University-developed vaccine. “I made the decision to get AstraZeneca because I’m eligible, but also because I have faith in it.” With Dubbo going into lockdown this week, Mr Saunders is urging all residents to seek out the advice of their health professional and to step up for the vaccine. “I would encourage people to speak with their doctor and make the best decision for them. “I know the process to get an appointment can be frustrating but please don’t give up! More doses are becoming available all the time. Keep trying and consider all the options available,” Mr Saunders said. Having two doses of the vaccine provides more than 90 per cent prevention of hospitalisation and death from Covid-19 should you contract the virus. Vaccination also reduces by an estimated 90 per cent your risk of spreading the virus to others, including loved ones and the most

Cale Oval upgrades begin UPGRADES to Narromine’s Cale Oval are among a number of projects currently rolling out across Narromine Shire, thanks to a multi-million dollar federal government investment which is creating jobs and boosting the local economy. Federal Member for Parkes Mark Coulton met with Narromine Shire Council Mayor Craig Davies to discuss how the federal government’s Local Roads and Community Infrastructure (LRCI) funding is benefitting the shire. “Narromine Shire Council received $909,690 under the first phase of the LRCI program and an additional $777,771 in Phase 2, so it’s fantastic to see a number of projects charging ahead using these funds,” Mr Coulton said. “This funding will ensure the facility is a premier sporting precinct for the Narromine community.”

vulnerable in our community. With most of the state, including our own local government area, now in various stages of lockdown, Mr Saunders is pleading with community members to not only get the vaccine, but consider AstraZeneca if they are eligible.

“If you’ve not yet had the jab, please make an appointment as soon as possible. “Tell your parents, your family and your friends how they can get the jab and the benefits it will provide for them and our community. “Many GPs and pharmacists

Three strikes for driver distraction HOW often have you been driving and completely missed a road sign because you were turning up the aircon or tuning the radio? Seems you’re not alone. According to an expert psychologist, traffic control devices and road signs need to be designed from a human centred perspective to avoid being missed altogether, or worse, a distraction. Emeritus Professor Michael Regan from the UNSW School of Civil and Environmental engineering, says that while our road and transport environment, including signs, is supposed to get us from A to B, there’s a “fine line” between what should be grabbing our attention and what risks being a distraction. “For example, things such as advertising billboards along highways draw the driver’s attention to whatever is being promoted in the ad,” Professor Regan says. “But they are also a source of distraction and may instead draw the driver’s attention away from things that are critical for safe driving – such as being focused on the road ahead.” He says many factors come into play when designing a transport environment that’s safe for all users, but it needs to be designed from a “human centred” perspective because we’re ultimately the ones who’ll be using it.

Dining to Discover a way to help By JOHN RYAN THERE’S a deadline coming up when it comes to helping local businesses and it won’t cost Dubbo residents a single cent. Earlier in the year, every adult was allocated two $25 Dine and two $25 Discover vouchers by the NSW Government, with that $100 earmarked for recipients to spend at local eateries and other ‘experience’ businesses to help kickstart an economy battered by the Covid-19 pandemic. Dubbo MP Dugald Saunders told Dubbo Photo News that he hadn’t yet got around to using his vouchers, but he’s aiming to expend them before they expire on August 31. “The benefits of Dine & Discover are there for everyone to see,” Mr Saunders said. “We’ve given people a way of enjoying a couple of cheap meals, and an incentive to get out and visit some of the wonderful attractions we have in the region. The figures also show people are using the vouchers as a subsidy towards something of a greater cost, rather than just spending the $25 available. “We have definitely helped a large number of hospitality and tourism businesses get back on their feet, not only financially, but as key employers who provide jobs for so many people.” Many Dubbo businesses have been hit hard by Coronavirus, with many restaurants doing it tougher than they ever have. Veldt Restaurant owner Natalie Myers said they slowly made their

way back to a very strong recovery after last year’s lockdown, but the recent Sydney outbreak has once again shut down much of their customer base. “People were travelling in NSW and it saw Dubbo thrive,” Mrs Myers said. “We have had a very consistent 2021 until the recent lockdown occurred. (Now) we have never been so quiet.” She’s hoping locals who have any Dine vouchers left will use them to support their local restaurants and eateries rather than letting them expire unused so as to ensure the maximum boost for the local business community. “I think it is a great opportunity for the reminder to be put out

there, even for those people that haven’t even applied for them yet,” she said. “Or to give people ideas on how to use the Discover vouchers in our community with the registered businesses. Those people that do not have children in particular are wondering what to do with them. “There are the obvious choices like the zoo and the gaol, but there are some locally owned businesses that offer event evenings like The Establishment Bar, for example.” The Establishment Bar’s Tenelle Bond said business in the past 18 months had been incredibly ‘unpredictable, hard at times and tiresome’. “As a new business in such a niche market, and a mum and

dad business, you cover every aspect of the running of that business and you throw everything you have left into making things work during these times, because really there is no other choice and at times, this really takes it out of you,” she said. “It’s been a huge unknown and as a relatively new business just ticking over one year in Feb 2020, we needed to ensure our customers knew that we were still around and that our business would survive this pandemic. “We threw ourselves into marketing. Through our events, we noticed that after the lockdown, people wanted to be entertained.” Continued next page

AUSTRALIANS are being urged to continue to spend with local businesses as the Go Local First campaign returns to the airwaves, with an initial focus on supporting small businesses affected by lockdowns. Go Local First highlights the crucial role small business plays in the nation’s economy and the continued need for Australians to support those small businesses as the Delta variant of Covid-19 wreaks havoc with the ability of small businesses to keep trading. Spokesperson Mark McKenzie said small businesses account for just over a third of Austral-

ia’s GDP and a full economic recovery will not be possible without small businesses trading and providing jobs for their community. “Far more jobs have been lost from small businesses than large during lockdowns – and that was before the significant downturn in activity we are seeing in parts of the country affected by the Delta variant of Covid-19,” Mr McKenzie said. “We had plans for a launch event, but we faced the same uncertainty as small businesses across the country and were forced to cancel. The fact that

major cities are back in lockdown reinforces the need to continue to Go Local First, to support small businesses and recreate the jobs lost in local communities. “The reality is small local businesses are less equipped to cope with lockdowns, and many of our small businesses are service-based, meaning they can’t shift to remote working. These small local businesses need Australians to get out there, spending and shopping locally.” He says Australians need to continue to get out there and support their local tradespeople,

butchers, pharmacists, bookkeepers, and goods producers like wineries and farmers. “When you shop locally, your money stays in your community, meaning local small businesses will still be there to employ their locals as we emerge out of the pandemic,” he said. In supporting small business, be sure to adhere to the health advice to keep yourself and your community safe. The Go Local First campaign is funded by the Federal Government and delivered by the Council of Small Business Organisations Australia.

Like many small businesses, The Establishment Bar pivoted to new ways of doing things in a bid to survive, beginning small monthly events which proved very popular, selling out quickly. “Our monthly events went to weekly, and we partner with creatives, both local and national and work to provide an exciting experience for our customers. It also enables us to keep our staff employed and losing less shifts too. It hasn’t been our biggest time but at least we’re still here and people are still supporting us,” she said. Mrs Bond said that any incentive from the State Government which can entice people through the doors to spend money is positive, and they were working at new ways to ensure the Dine and Discover vouchers could be used at their establishment. “Every bit helps and we’re constantly communicating to our

customers of this option which helps their hip pocket too and maybe they’ll come back. For dining, we offer grazing boards, bar nibbles, coffee and desserts using local patisserie chef’s services that people can use their vouchers on for the Dine option and we have collaborated with the Hanoi Vietnamese Restaurant across the road to offer some of their hot entrée meals for people to enjoy in the bar which helps us both out. “For the Discover side, we offer entertainment options and have hosted ticketed live music events, comedy nights, murder mystery dinners and many other fun nights that help keep artists in work, which is helpful to them as many have been out of work for the past year due to Covid restrictions.” Mrs Bond said they appreciate the opportunities the vouchers have given which has enabled them to help support other businesses around the CBD, but be-

lieves the positives are currently outweighed by the negatives, with the bar forced to reschedule many upcoming events because of recent lockdowns across the state. Another local business deeply affected is Dubbo Action Sports, with paintball and archery tag bookings shredded by cancellations, according to director Dave Honeysett. “We’ve noticed a significant decline since the start of July, down more than 50 per cent on last year’s figures,” Mr Honeysett told Dubbo Photo News. “We had plenty of voucher usage pre-July but since the latest scare with the outbreak in the last week of June, bookings have dried up compared to this time in 2020. “We know the vouchers can still be used and welcome groups and players to make the most of it. Dubbo Action Sports can accept Discover vouchers and provide a safe location to spend time during

this difficult active Covid period. All equipment is cleaned and jerseys hot washed and sanitised. We have plenty of room at the field to safely operate groups.” Mrs Bond says there’s such a positive knock-on effect when people use the vouchers locally within the smaller businesses, and says when The Establishment sees that cash flowing through its doors, there are plenty of others who benefit. “The artists are usually the first ones to lose the work and when snap lockdowns or fear within the community or quiet periods happen, these creatives are the first to lose the opportunities. They often travel far and wide to showcase their craft,”she said “They are just as important to us as our staff are, they are members of our team, it’s a rare moment we cancel them and the more support from the government and our patrons helps us keep these types of entertainment within our region.”

A RELIABLE weather report is one of the most sought-after commodities in the agricultural industry, so farmers across the region will be cautiously optimistic at the news of a new Doppler Radar being switched on to provide more accurate data. NSW Farmers has welcomed the news that the Hillston Doppler Radar has been turned on, with the NSW government promising improved weather data to help with business and farm management decisions. NSW Farmers has long been advocating for more Doppler Radars in western NSW. Three were promised – one has been installed at Brewarrina, the switch has been flicked on the Hillston radar, and the third is now under construction at Yeoval. The radars provide critical data to help farmers with both longand short-term planning and preparation for extreme weather events.

Nepalese locals roll up their sleeves

By JOHN RYAN THIS city’s Nepalese community has grown exponentially in the past couple of years and Dubbo Nepalese Community Australia (DNCA) is keen to show locals they care deeply about their new home, according to DNCA president Sunil Bhandari. A group of the new-ish residents gathered at the Dubbo blood bank to roll up their sleeves last week It’s the group donation, and a small thing we are doing for the community,” Mr Bhandari told Dubbo Photo News. The Covid-19 pandem-

ic has created a crisis for Pradeep Gyawali, Sunil Thapa, Sunil Bhandari, Sunjeet Shrestha and Mark Gonzales blood donations across the globe and the Australian Red Cross is urging people to follow the example set by Dubbo’s Nepalese community and encouraging groups of friends to take this jab for the common good. Red Cross needs blood and plasma products every day to support cancer patients, new mums and babies, people with immune deficiencies or blood diseases, and people who need surgery or have suffered trauma. At the moment the service is seeing an increase in cancellations and people rescheduling their Bimal Adhikari, Saurav Dhakal and Rajiv Bhattarai with the Red Cross blood bank’s appointments.

Promise of end in sight for roadworks in west IT’S been a long time coming, but Dubbo residents and business people will be relieved to hear that the upgrade for the intersection of the Newell and Mitchell Highways is almost complete, with the next stage now about to begin. The upgrades, funded by the state and federal governments to the tune of $40 million, are on track according to Dubbo MP Dugald Saunders, who says the works will be finished by the end of the year. “This work has been a long time coming to reduce congestion at one of Dubbo’s busiest intersections

and it’s great to see we’re on the home stretch,” Mr Saunders said. The next stage will see temporary traffic lights switched off and a temporary roundabout installed, before permanent traffic signals are switched on at the end of the year. Diversions will be in place from 7pm this Friday, August 13, via Baird Street and Young Street, with access blocked through the intersection, until 7am on Monday 16. Mr Saunders says night work is planned to minimise the impact on the community, with the noisiest work to be done before midnight.

Hunt on for Aussie mozzie control WITH all the rain we’ve had over winter and temperatures slowly starting to climb again, the mozzies will soon be out in force and with them comes the threat of Ross River fever. However, new research is underway to help tackle the species of mosquito most responsible for the debilitating disease. The three year project – a partnership between the Universities of Newcastle and Melbourne, the CSIRO and NSW Health – is based in the Hunter region, and will use genomic sequencing to help develop suppression strategies for the Aedes vigilax mosquito. This pesky little insect is one of the most widespread of the Aussie mozzies, which can fly many kilometres within its lifetime, spreading Ross River virus of which there are more than 4000 cases reported each year. Advances in technology mean the scientists can sequence tiny amounts of DNA to track genetic differences of individual mosquito genomes and find distinct populations. The information gathered will provide the foundation for the next phase of the project, which will look at using a natural bacteria that has been successfully able to suppress vector-borne (or animal to human) disease elsewhere in the world.

Ultra-upgrades for our ultrasounds DUBBO has shared in $450,000 to upgrade local ultrasound machines, meaning local residents now have access to state-of-the-art imaging equipment upgrades at the hospitals in a sector in which the technological goal posts are constantly changing. Western NSW Local Health District (WNSWLHD) Medical Imaging Services general manager James Harvey

said the upgrade provides an important boost. “We have a very thorough replacement program for our medical imaging equipment. This year alone we have replaced nearly $3.5 million worth of equipment across a range of sites including Orange, Dubbo, Forbes, Coonabarabran and Bourke,” Mr Harvey said. “We strive to ensure our medical imaging depart-

ments and staff utilise the best and most up-to-date equipment as possible, leading to improved diagnostic outcomes for patients.” Ultrasound uses no radiation and is excellent at visualising soft tissues such as organs, muscles, blood flows and commonly used for pregnancy, the equipment was funded through a combination of leasing, trade-ins Sonographers Stephanie Steele and Katie Rush. and capital funding.

Vandalism costs the community Community needs to remain vigilant A $2500 reward is being offered by Dubbo Regional Council for any information regarding recent vandalism at Dubbo Skate Park. Dubbo Region Mayor Stephen Lawrence said twice in one week, vandals had caused damage at the popular recreation area, leaving the community to foot the bill which is in the thousands of dollars. “The unfortunate fact of attacks on this scale is that the community wears the bill, with these incidents costing the council thousands of dollars to remove,” he said. “The park was closed for an entire day to enable the initial graffiti to be properly removed.” Contact the police if you have any information regarding these attacks.

THE Dubbo community is urged to remain vigilant after Covid fragments were detected in the city’s sewage system. While there aren’t any known cases of the virus in the Dubbo LGA, NSW Health is urging everyone to be particularly vigilant for the onset of symptoms. If they appear, it is best to be tested immediately and self-isolate until a negative result is received. There are multiple testing centres in Dubbo including the Dubbo Showground which is operating daily. The Dubbo Hospital testing facility has also recently moved to the medical specialist rooms in the Manera Plaza. For more information on the current NSW Health orders, please visit health.nsw.gov.au

Great start for rare bird breeding season

PHOTO: SUPPLIED

COINCIDING with the past two years of Covid-19 hasn’t stopped some of the region’s most loved native birds from trying to tie those natural knots. The second breeding season for the critically endangered Regent Honeyeater has commenced at Taronga Western Plains Zoo and keepers are already seeing positive signs according to keeper, Kara Stevens. “We started putting pairs together in late June and have been seeing positive breeding behaviour since then, with two females currently sitting

on eggs,” she said. The birds’ breeding season runs from June to January and during this time females can often have one or two clutches of chicks. The zoo currently has eight new Regent Honeyeater breeding pairs and these new pairings will ensure the continued growth in genetic diversity of the zoo-based insurance population for the national breeding program. “Last year was such a great start for our first year’s involvement in the Regent Honeyeater conservation breeding program. Our team learnt

so much about the species as well as achieving such a great breeding result,” Ms Stevens said. “This year, in our second breeding season, we hope to once again 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.” The ultimate goal of the conservation breeding program is to increase insurance population numbers, with the aim to release birds into the wild to bolster numbers in key

habitat areas in the future. “Regent Honeyeater numbers are at critically low levels across all of its range. It is estimated that there are as few as 400 Regent Honeyeaters remaining in the wild, so every chick hatched in zoos like ours is so important.” The birds are medium-sized, coloured black and yellow and they feed on nectar obtained mainly from eucalypts and mistletoe. Once widespread across Australia, they now exist in small numbers across limited sites from north-eastern Victoria to south-eastern Queensland.

BOOTHENBA ROAD UPGRADE UNDERWAY Safety on Boothenba Road is set to be improved, with the ﬁrst sod turned on upgrades to the intersection that leads to the Dubbo Regional Livestock Markets. This much-needed upgrade to this key freight route will not only signiﬁcantly improve safety for all road users and increase productivity gains for heavy vehicles accessing the saleyards, but these works will provide a boost to local jobs and the regional economy at a time when it’s needed most. The Federal Government contributed $2 million to this project under the Heavy Vehicle Safety and Productivity Program, while the NSW Government provided $6 million from its Drought Stimulus Package.

FOCUS ON FLETCHERS

“Never been happier” says bush-born worker By JOHN RYAN GRAHAM Nolan grew up in Gwabegar and has worked around the bush out west for most of his life, but when the drought bit and farmers were struggling to get through the long dry, his work also began drying up. “I was shed-building and concreting, my boss had run out of work so I filled the application for here at Fletcher’s,” he told Dubbo Photo News. He’s now been there for five years and ended up moving just a bit out of town to enjoy a peaceful lifestyle. “I was in Dubbo but I’ve moved out to Neilrex now on a little block. There’s only about nine houses – it’s a little town. “We drive an hour and a bit to get here. We get up at about 3am

and leave home about 3:30 and start here at five in the morning. The travelling doesn’t worry me and I come in every Saturday and have my little rest day on Sunday.” Like many people on the payroll at Fletcher International, Mr Nolan has had a crack at many roles and learned a thing or two along the way. “I’m out in the pet food (section). I like it out there. I started in the hot room, then down to the fellmongery, then the salt shed and then to where I am now. I love it in pet food – it’s a good bunch of blokes, they’re all good people out here. I enjoy it,” he said. Mr Nolan believes it’s amazing to have a large workplace in town where you can roll up without any qualifications or experience and gain employment, and to then have almost limitless opportuni-

ties for training and advancement. “They train you up. I didn’t really know anything when I started and they showed me a few things. I wish I’d found out about it years ago. I was a bit windy about using a computer first off and now I can use it with my eyes shut. “If I’d never had to for the job I wouldn’t have ever made myself do it. When Anton was showing me how to use it I was frightened to touch it, now I just walk in and bang, bang, bang, it’s easy, I’m showing the other boys how to use it now.” He says it’s often difficult for unskilled people in regional areas, especially in smaller towns, to find regular work in the agricultural industry and believes the abattoir does so much for so many people, as well as for the city of Dubbo and the broader

region. And he enjoys the fact that working at Fletcher International can become a family affair. “I’ve had two sons out here, now my wife’s out here. They look after you,” he said. “My wife’s in the cold room and she loves it here. She used to work in pubs and clubs and she had

Meat the boss By JEN COWLEY MARK Knaggs has been serving the meat-loving public of Dubbo and the region for the best part of a quarter of a century at Dubbo Meat and Seafood Centre, but the burly butcher has been in the trade since he was, by his own admission, “asked” to leave school at the tender age of 15. “It was suggested that I should leave school and go and do something else,” he laughs. “So I did. I did work experience at a butchery and I haven’t looked back.” Now the owner operator of the well-known local outlet, Mark started his career with a four-year apprenticeship, moving through the ranks and becoming AusMeat accredited while working as foreman at Fletcher International Exports. To be a good butcher, he says, requires not only a keen sense of and commitment to customer service, but a sound knowledge of the different cuts of meats from different beasts. “I have a mate who’s a vet, and he said there was one section of his training that was exactly the same as the training you get as a butcher with regard to the various

parts, or cuts, of the animal body.” Over the years, consumer tastes have shifted significantly according to his observations, with a move away from the old “basic meat and potatoes” staple diet to a more sophisticated palate. Mark says these days people are going for pre-marinated meats and he’s noticed a discernible American influence with pre-prepared and “easier” dishes. “We used to sell, say, half a lamb with mince and sausages – now people want things butterflied, marinated. There has also been an increase in demand for things we used to think of as offal – beef cheeks, shanks, flaps, necks... people love that stuff now – it just flies off the shelf.” And why is that? Simple, says Mark: “Television shows. I used to religiously watch all the cooking shows because whatever they were cooking, the next week we’d get hammered for it. Without fail.” Seafood is also a significant part of the business, with the increasing sophistication and regularity of transport having made a “huge difference”. “Once there’d be one truck a day coming out of Sydney – now

it’s five,” he says, adding that the old days of scepticism about the freshness of seafood in the bush are long gone. It’s no longer a case of “being a long way from the sea” when it comes to ocean fare. “And it’s not just road transport that’s made the difference. Before Covid-19, if you wanted something specific, we’d just ring the Sydney fish markets and get them to put it on a plane.” The business has always prided itself on catering to diverse tastes, with everything from rare game meat to exotic seafood like sea-urchin, and Mark is happy to throw out the challenge. “Try me,” he says. “You name it, I’ll get it for you.” He’s almost reluctant to say it out

Not that everything is rosy in the meat and seafood sector, he says.

Supply has been difficult, given the drought and the unusual fact that stock prices – cattle and sheep – remained constant throughout. “It was a weird drought,” Mark says. “Usually, you’d get a plunge in prices and stock’s worth nothing, but throughout this drought, prices held so we were always going to come out the other end of it with prices really high. “The other thing is that markets around the world realise what Australia has, and they want it.

PAINTING FOR PARAMOUNT

Charlie Whiteley and Paul Handsaker at Paramount Tennis Club where they hope a mural will be painted in the near future. PHOTO: DUBBO PHOTO NEWS/KEN SMITH

By NATALIE LEWIS THERE’S a new mural in the pipeline for Dubbo, with Paramount Tennis Club planning to have the front wall of its clubhouse painted by an artist. President Charlie Whiteley believes it’s a great way to highlight the sport to the community. “As a committee, we are always looking for ways to improve the club,” he explained. “It’s a fantastic opportunity to showcase the game of tennis, it’s in a great position for foot traffic and cars. It will be of benefit to the Dubbo community and the sport of tennis in the Central West and Far West.” Mr Whiteley said committee

member Paul Handsaker initially came up with the idea and it was wholeheartedly welcomed. “He’s done a lot of work behind the scenes. I thought it would be a fantastic idea.” According to Mr Whiteley, Paramount is a very open community and he described it as a welcoming, social club. “There’s coaching for the kids, competitive and social tennis. It has a real community feel. “It’s a place to have fun, feel safe and it’s a game for all ages. We want the mural to reflect that.” Mr Whiteley said the club is calling for expressions of interest from anyone who is interested in taking on the project. “We are very open to working

with a local artist,” he said. “I’m no Van Gogh, but we’ll be working with the successful artist to get the designs done. We are open to working with them on what will work in the space,” he explained. The mural will need to have a tennis theme but the Paramount committee is happy for the artist to put their own spin on the 30.2m x 2.5m space. “Tennis can be enjoyed by people of all ages, from five to 95. We want it to reflect players of all ages and abilities, all demographics. There’s no one theme. “Being such a massive space, there's an opportunity to have multiple themes. It could even be broken up into sections,” Mr

Whiteley said. As the owner of the clubhouse and courts which are leased to the club, Dubbo Regional Council will be involved in the process along with the Paramount committee who are looking at costings for the project. “We are expecting the cost to be in the vicinity of $10-12,000,” Mr Whiteley said. “We are hoping to get funding support and we are in the process of looking for opportunities. We are hoping to get it moving as soon as possible.” EOIs are open until 9am on Monday, August 16. For more information, email paramounttennis@live.com.au or call Charlie Whiteley on 0417 026 164.

HIGHWAY Patrol police are continuing to conduct public health order compliance checks around the back roads feeding into our region, targeting drivers evading the lockdown zones and local police are urging everyone to maintain vigilance and compliance with Public Health Orders to prevent Covid-19 from spreading into our community. Local police are conducting high-visibility operations to support the community in ensuring compliance with the Public Health Orders and responding to reports of breaches. Last week NSW Health identified high levels of virus fragments in sewage in Dubbo, and Mudgee and these alerts are of concern – take the case of Armidale where positive detections in the sewage translated into positive cases in the community.

Students explore food of the future By JOHN RYAN PLANET B is the topic some avid Dubbo College South Campus students have been investigating during Science Week, with the red planet of Mars firmly in their sights according to science teacher Susan Yaghjian. “Our Year 7 cohort is looking at a new topic for the next six weeks or so that centres around the colonisation of Mars,” she told Dubbo Photo News. “We’re looking at a cross-curricular approach to this activity and will be exploring the technology needed for terraforming, establishment of a community/civilisation, ethical dilemmas, and survival techniques including food. “Science week revolves around (the theme of) “food for the future” this year and this will fit in nicely.” The students may have their heads in the stars but their feet and hands are firmly embedded in the Earth, looking at protein substitutes such as insects, laboratory produced meat and other options. “We have a veggie garden already established so we can test soil types, look at hydroponics and figure out the best way to sustainably produce food,” she said. Budding Year 7 scientists Gemma Coote, Chloe Richards, Amy Quilty, Matilda Medlin and Isabelle Ravot were keen to share their research aims with our readers. “Science Week is where we explore new topics and broaden our

knowledge. This year’s topic is food of the future; what could that look like?” they said, pointing out that at the moment, people are beginning to lean towards packaged food and whatever is easiest. “We believe that as the years go on, this will only get worse. In the future we expect that food will be processed, packaged and pre-made. Let’s assume that Mars will be colonised within the next 100 years. What kind of food will be sustainable there? Insects could be the solution to all of our problems. They don’t take up much room, have a high energy and protein content, and they won’t go extinct any time soon. “Say we run out of water on Mars, we could process and reuse our urine. These are just a few of the things we will be exploring during Science Week.” It’s pretty challenging stuff to get the population of an affluent nation like Australia to change their eating and drinking habits so drastically. The students will look into the type of food to take on a six-month journey to Mars and how to dehydrate and rehydrate food. Composting and use of all wastes will also be important and students will trial different methods of composting to produce their own organic matter for planting. Susan Yaghjian says getting students to think about the future of food both on Earth and Mars, will be a stepping-stone for budding scientists to design sustainable solutions.

Criminal scum

First Church fire exercise

DUBBO Photo News photographer Ken Smith had a taste of how our first responders handle emergency situations on the frontline as our Fire and Rescue NSW crews staged a simulated blaze and rescue at the soon-to-be demolished No.1 Church Street multi-level building. “I was standing in a room full of smoke, visibility was close to zero – thankfully there was a highly trained local fireman standing beside me,” Ken said. A fire source, controlled for this exercise, with smoke provided by smoke machines simulated a real life fire and rescue encounter in a multi storey structure. “Without the use of the latest technology, all you could see was a mass of colour in the smoke, it was difficult to see anything and there were three dummies that had to be rescued, hidden in a couple of locations in offices. “What a privilege it was to get this close to a real time exercise.” Dubbo Photo News would like to thank our firies, not only for the

constant life-saving and community work that they do, but also for allowing us access to this opportunity to see them at the simulated training first-hand. Thanks in particular to Scott Habgood who is the senior instructor out in this western zone, as well as all the firies who took part, including those from Dubbo Station 280 retained who featured in these photographs.

Top cops out and about SUPERINTENDENT Danny Sullivan spent his first week flat out in his new job as commander of the Orana Mid-Western Police District and much of that time was utilised introducing himself to many of the people who make such a positive difference to Dubbo. One of his stops was the Whalan Community Garden near the soccer ovals off Macquarie Street just south of the LH Ford Bridge; a visit with Inspector Natalie Antaw who is the police interface for these sorts of community initiatives. “With all that is going on we thought we would focus on those things that make our community an amazing place,” Supt Sullivan said. “We are stronger when we come together, sharing and combining our skills to overcome collective challenges.

AS if the elderly residents of Dubbo haven’t had a tough enough time during these past 18 months of Covid-19 without some criminal garbage deliberately targeting them. It seems some low-life crooks have been causing some dramas in aged care and Orana Gardens CEO Clint Grose is determined to put a stop to it. “The elderly of our community should be respected, yet they are being targeted by some very low criminals, it’s inexcusable, preying on the vulnerable,” Mr Grose told Dubbo Photo News. “Our CCTV system is being upgraded at great cost to a new 4K system, this will allow the footage to be used to catch these appalling criminals. “Management has spoken with police, who will increase patrols, also our security contractor is going to increase foot patrols and use of guard dogs.” There are no words to describe the sort of people who target our elderly in this way. If anyone has any information, or sees anyone behaving suspiciously around our aged care residents, please call Dubbo police.

Housing crisis: Have your say

JUMPING FOR JEANS

IF you’ve tried to rent or buy a house in Dubbo or the region lately, you’ll know just how desperate the housing crisis has become, with huge pressures on the supply and affordability impacting regional NSW in particular. Now, you can have your say, contribute to the debate and hopefully be part of helping to come up with solutions, with the Regional Housing Taskforce calling for residents to participate in online sessions during August. Dubbo MP Dugald Saunders has been urging councils across the region to get together to come up with some solutions, and says as a result these sessions pose a great opportunity for the first steps to be taken. “We want to hear your experiences to better understand the challenges when buying and renting in the bush, so we can drive policy that delivers new housing opportunities for regional communities,” Mr Saunders said.

Bub in business By JOHN RYAN

SARAH Atchison is the welcoming face at Niche Narromine boutique business Country Traders Home and Life but now she has a helping hand. At the tender age of just three weeks old, baby Felicity is already doing a roaring trade as a meeter and greeter of her mum’s customers as they walk through the door. Mrs Atchison says life at the moment is busy. “I’m back into it and juggling life in-between a twoyear-old, the business and now this little one,” she told Dubbo Photo News. “It’s certainly a juggling act but I’m very lucky to have an amazing family to support me and a great community.”

And a big thank-you to Dubbo residents who she said have helped so much by travelling out west in carload lots to help out their smaller neighbour. “Dubbo people are amazing in supporting us, coming out and enjoying the hospitality Narromine has to offer and looking at the small boutiques we have out here,” she said, putting in a plug for her businesses’ newest drawcard. “I’d love as many Dubbo people as possible to come and see Felicity.”

IT’S A RECORD! Manhattan restaurant Serendipty3 has cooked up the ultimate “Crème de la Crème Pomme Frites”. Their latest menu addition, which features luxurious ingredients and ﬁnely crisped potatoes, has set the bar for the classic American dish, as it has now earned the title for the world’s most expensive French fries (chips). Valued at $US200, their chefs whipped up the new food item to provide guests with a unique and delicious French fry experience. To make the fries, the potatoes are ﬁrst blanched in Dom Perignon Champagne and J. LeBlanc French Champagne Ardenne Vinegar to give the initial bite a touch of sweet decadence and acid.

Covid making us cranky, stressed says workers’ survey WHILE here in Dubbo and across the region we’ve been luckier than many when it comes to Covid-19, there’s no doubt the pandemic has had an impact on all our lives in some way. A new survey, conducted by Unions NSW, has shown many workers report an increase in anger and anxiety as a result of what the union says is the “slow and piecemeal health and economic response” from the state and federal governments. Nearly half the 2993 workers surveyed across a number of different sectors, nearly half (46 per cent) said they felt they’d been put at risk of contracting Covid-19 at work, and some 84 per cent believed the state government moved too slowly to lock Sydney down. The survey revealed pessimism about the near future, with 59 per cent of respondents expecting the health situation in NSW to deteriorate in the near future, while two-thirds (66 per cent) also said they expect economic conditions to worsen in the near future.

DON’T pack your winter woolies away yet, because August 27 is fast approaching and it’s on that night the Old Dubbo Gaol will host a community sleepout which is part of Vinnies’ bid to raise awareness and funds to combat homelessness, and there’s still time to sign up. Event coordinator Dan Sullivan told Dubbo Photo News that so far nine people have registered with more names expected to be added to the list. “The NSW Vinnies Community Sleepout is taking place in Dubbo to raise essential funds for locals experiencing and at risk of homelessness,” Mr Sullivan said. “As at the first of August, $2,397 has been donated and the goal is to raise $10,000.

Dan Sullivan, event coordinator, with Sr Marie Murphy, Andrew McKay, Julie Webster, Charlie Nguyen and Paul Hagarty. Absent from the photo are team members Geoff Mann, Carole O’Connor and Ian Wray. PHOTO: SUPPLIED

“All funds raised locally will remain in the community to support the work Vinnies does throughout the district assisting people experiencing or at risk of homelessness due to domestic and family violence, leaving prison, loss of employment and difficulty finding work.” The Dubbo event will proceed in-person at Old Dubbo Gaol with COVID-safe measures in place including adherence to the NSW government’s mandate on masks, par-

ticipants required to signin using the Service NSW QR code and a dedicated COVID marshal on site. Vinnies is closely monitoring the situation in case anything changes.

Homelessness Week finishes this Saturday (August 7), with this year’s theme being Everybody Needs a Home. Mr Sullivan wants locals to know there’s still plenty of time to sign up and join in the event, or donate to the cause. “Across Australia there are more than 116,000 people experiencing homelessness, including right here in our community,” said Mr Sullivan. “The NSW street count held earlier this year re-

vealed eight people are sleeping rough in Dubbo, doubling from the figures recorded in 2020. “We also have a demand for social housing with 419 applicants, including 20 listed as priority, on the NSW social housing waitlist.” He said the supply of private rental housing stock is extremely limited due to people moving to Dubbo for employment and with large increases in weekly rent, people on low incomes are being priced out of their community. “As part of the sleepout we’ll be highlighting these issues and other factors that lead to homelessness.” People can register to take part, sponsor a sleeper or make a donate at www.vinnies.org.au/communitysleepout or contact Dan Sullivan at dandcsullivan@bigpond.com or on 0417 215 898

WELLINGTON NEWS Caves complex is a first-class facility WE WELCOME YOUR NEWS, IDEAS & PHOTOS email wellingtonnews@panscott.com.au phone 6885 4433

By NATALIE LEWIS

AS a first-class tourist attraction in the region, the Wellington Caves Complex continues to go from strength to strength. The $4.2 million Visitor Experience Centre opened last year and the newly-installed Ancient Landscapes Gallery tells the area’s 400-million-year history. It was jointly funded by Dubbo Regional Council, the NSW Government’s Stronger Country Communities Fund ($400,000) and the Australian Government’s Drought Communities Program ($250,000). Wellington Caves operations coordinator Michelle Tonkins said the development complements the caves and allows visitors to explore how they were created. “It gives people an opportunity to further their knowledge of the caves and the significance of the site itself,” Mrs Tonkins said. She explained that the permanent exhibition will provide an additional experience to the guided tours of the three caves, with a large interactive collection display room, digital immersive theatre using augmented reality, projections, lighting and sounds to bring megafauna and ancient landscapes to life.

“Wellington Caves is the first site where megafauna fossils were discovered in Australia. We wanted to showcase that aspect of the history,” she said. Mrs Tonkins described the Ancient Landscapes Gallery as a

“snapshot in time”. “It takes you back to 400 million years ago when it was an inland sea and the limestone caves were created after the sea receded.” While there has long been information on the caves available at

the site, Mrs Tonkins said the new display “takes it to the next level and gives the caves the attention it deserves”. Visitors will now be able to hear more about the Wiradjuri and modern histories of the area

along with the megafauna that once roamed there. The Discovery Lab also offers a fossil finding session which Mrs Tonkins warned is highly addictive. “Once you find one, you want to keep going,” she said. The Wellington Caves Complex is currently operating under Covid-19 regulations, but Mrs Tonkins said they are still open and welcoming to visitors. “We’ve had a hit in terms of visitation with recent restrictions but we are still taking people through the caves and they are still able to enjoy our visitor experience centre and stay for coffee and food.” She is very passionate about the site and loves to see people discover its many treasures. “It’s such an interesting site, it’s easy to be passionate. We are very proud to showcase the caves and the mates’ rates program for the Dubbo Region offers 50 per cent off. Discover vouchers are also valid until the end of August.” Wellington Caves Complex is considered one of the top three tourist attractions of the Dubbo region, and usually attracts 30,000 visitors each year.

“Unique property” Bellhaven for sale By NATALIE LEWIS

A UNIQUE opportunity exists for the potential buyer of Wellington’s former Bellhaven aged care facility, which is now on the market with an asking price of $1.5 to $1.65 million (plus GST). Raine and Horne property consultant Thomas Haylock said it’s not very often places like this become available. “It’s definitely a unique property. “I’ve been doing this for five years, it might be another 15 years before I see something like it again,” he said. Set on 1.64 ha, the building has a 2628m2 floor plan which features 32 accommodation rooms including 14 double rooms and 18 single rooms, all with en suite bathrooms plus office space, reception areas, commercial kitchen and multiple communal areas. There is also car parking for 27 vehicles. Mr Haylock said the zoning is R1 (General Residential) with commercial usage permitted. It was built in the 1970s with the southern wing added as an extension in 2008 in keeping with the original building. Its elevated position also offers unparalleled views of Mt Arthur. Potential uses include nursing home, disability care, group housing, short term rental accommodation or motel. “Depending on the purchaser, it could be operated as a boarding house, hostel, multi-dwelling housing, seniors housing or respite daycare centre,” Mr Haylock explained. He said the building is operational in its current state, and would not necessarily need to be renovated prior to future use. “The overall condition is in very

good repair. Because it was used for aged care, it’s a hard wearing commercial space, it’s all in very good order.” The property was open to expressions of interest (EOI) until July 29, which Mr Haylock said gave potential buyers the opportunity to consider purchase condi-

tions before making an offer. “’Because it’s such a unique property, we are not going to auction,” he explained. “What EOI permits is not capping the price on the property. We have updated the advertised price guide and will be encouraging offers in that range.”

There has already been some interest to buy the property, which has huge potential for the region. “There are a few groups that assist with accommodation in this area; it offers genuine value based on what is there. It’s a niche buy,” Mr Haylock said.

“There’s been interest from a number of groups but they are finalising conditions before we lock anything down.” Owned by Orana Gardens Ltd, the accommodation facility has not been used since 2018. It is located at 6-10 Warruga Place, Wellington.

Wellington soldiers on socialising OBSERVING all the correct Covid-19 protocols, Wellington locals are patronising local eateries including pubs and clubs. Just a reminder to Wellingtonians – if you know anyone who hasn’t used up their Dine and Discover vouchers because they’ve forgotten, or don’t know how to access them, please remind them they expire at the end of this month on August 31. And if they need a helping hand to activate them, you may be able to assist by talking them through the process. If everyone in town over the age of 18 ensures they spend that $100 from the state government, it could make a massive difference to your local

businesses which have been doing it tough. Here Dubbo Photo News’ Wellington photographer Col Rouse snapped plenty of members and guests enjoying last Sunday night out for Chinese, a drink and a chance to win the meat tray raffles at Wellington Memorial Soldiers Club. That patronage helps the club out and all the people who work there, who then spend much of their wages in the town. So if you’re over 18 and don’t know about the two-each $25 Dine and Discover vouchers, or don’t have a clue how to get them, ask someone to help – there’s no sense in letting that money go begging.

Community rallies to help heal its own By JOHN RYAN

NO issue harms our communities more than suicide and now the bloke who’s taken a stand to protect local tradies from taking their own lives has been asked to work fulltime in the foundation he founded. When Bruno Efoti set up Tradies in Sight just a few short years ago, locals were staggered to learn that tradies took their lives at six times the rate of the general population, which means trades are among the highest-risk sectors when it comes to incidents of self-harm. During the past few years Bruno has helped so many people back from that bleak, dark precipice of inner-demons that he’s caught the attention of an Orange couple, who used to live in Dubbo but have seen how Bruno’s on-ground engagement has worked so effectively and wanted to help. “When I was told they wanted to donate some money I looked in the account expecting to see $100 or maybe $200, so I was shocked when I saw they’d donated $10,000,” Mr Efoti told Dubbo Photo News. The mystery donor said the work Bruno does is far too important to stop just because he doesn’t have a regular funding stream. “To be honest, it's less about the amount and more about the reasons why on this occasion we could help in this way. We absolutely believe in what Tradies in Sight is doing and genuinely hope others see this importance,” he said.

 Bruno and TIS are providing a safe environment for tradespeople to be listened to and also feel like they can speak what’s on their mind. TIS is no doubt making a huge difference, considering the crazy stats around tradies and suicide rates. TIS couldn’t have been put together at a more-needed time and full credit to Bruno and his team for taking on this commitment to helping tradies in need.  – Joe Nugent

 Bruno is a great man who strives to make a difference in the lives of men and women. I personally have gone to Bruno and he has made a world of difference in my life. I strongly believe this community needs him and his organisation. He is one of the most caring, kindhearted and compassionate people to ever exist and it is an honour to know him. For anyone who is struggling with anything, no matter what it is, seek him out. Donating to this charity would mean a great deal to Bruno, he does a great job and a great service to the people, but he can’t do it alone. Any contribution would be greatly appreciated, as he is someone that will exceed your expectations.  – Joe Rowling “I finished my trade in 1998. I was fortunate enough through my apprenticeship to have a mentor who helped me navigate the challenges that come with the transition from the safe environment of school to the unstable environment of the world. I truly believe that without this person in my life, things would have turned out quite differently. “We have the expectation from young people to grow up very fast and without all the tools they need to cope. What Bruno does and needs to continue to do is provide that mentoring support to help in this way. I’m not sure people realise that what Tradies In Sight does is preventative. It's supporting people before they face the challenges.” The donor said the fundraising campaign was critically important to enable Bruno to continue his life-saving work without having to constantly worry about how he’ll put his own groceries on the table.9 “Imagine even for a moment that if each adult in the Dubbo and surrounding regions that has ever used a tradesperson donated just one dollar in their support. Tradies In Sight would continue to change lives, support trades people and reach even more people,”

he said. “Additionally, we believe that this is something Bruno was born to do. He has such a kind, gentle and loving way about him and he can’t help but make meaningful and impactful relationships.” When Dubbo arborist Shannon Hart heard about the fundraising campaign, he jumped straight on board with a massive $5000 donation and said as a local family business, he feels the responsibility to help fund Bruno.

 I find his cause one of the best things I’ve ever seen, there’s not much out there for men unless you’re in the age for the Mens Sheds  – Trevor Barker, retired firefighter “I feel what Bruno is doing is something we all need to get behind and support. We donated to Tradies in Sight because we can see the need for him to do what he does. It’s about giving back to the community and helping where we can,” Mr Hart told Dubbo Pho-

to News. “There is so much happening in this world at the moment and dealing with mental (ill) health is definitely up there. I’ve had close mates who have had it take grip and (been) ready to end it all. There’s nothing out there for tradies. “There are books and whatnot but there’s no one on the ground who’s there for them to show them they do matter more than they think, and to let them know there are people who care and want to help.” Picton Brothers Spanline director Les Picton heard about the fundraising and called Dubbo Photo News to kick the can for $1000. “We support Bruno all the way. We’ve seen the way he’s able to engage with tradies and blokes in general and we know he’s helped so many people in the building game who’ve been struggling,” Mr Picton said. “So few people would be capable of doing what Bruno does, so it’s up to the rest of us to help him be able to do his on-ground work full-time. We’re proud to be a supporter.” ••• Bruno Efoti says he’s humbled and overwhelmed by all the sup-

$50,000 $45,000 $40,000 $35,000 $30,000 $25,000 $20,000 $15,000 $10,000 $5,000 $0

port and says the cash donations come on top of significant assistance from Dubbo City Toyota and Dubbo MP Dugald Saunders. “I went into Dubbo City Toyota hoping they’d help out with a small donation because they employ a lot of tradies and I walked out with the keys to a brand new, sign written Toyota Hilux,” he said. Dubbo City Toyota general manager Ben Thompson takes up the story: “(Bruno) is a great man. He can relate to the guys he is having a conversation with and he genuinely cares,” Mr Thompson said. “I think the more businesses involved and helping Bruno, the further he can spread his message and get the conversation out there amongst the tradies. Mr Efoti was also full of praise for Dubbo MP Dugald Saunder who arranged for the old Girl Guides shed in Welchman Street to be transferred to Tradies In Sight via Crown Lands minister Melinda Pavey – it will be set up

DUBBO Regional Council mayor Steve Lawrence has donated $1000 from the mayoral discretionary fund to the Tradies In Sight fundraiser and said it’s a unique and invaluable organisation in our community. “I decided to make a pretty significant donation from the mayoral fund to them because I really hope to encourage other people and organisations to consider doing the same,” Cr Lawrence said. “It’s tough times for many volunteer and community groups and we all need to pull together during this time to help such groups get through covid when fund-raising and community participation is a lot tougher. “Please give generously to this fund-raising campaign and let’s keep Tradies In Sight going.”

as a “Youth Mens’ Shed” style facility to engage tradies and vulnerable youth in the one space. “I’m so grateful to Dugald. He believes in what we’re doing and he’s put a lot of work into making this happen,” Mr Efoti said. For his part, Dugald Saunders predicts big things for Tradies In Sight and believes once people start being aware of the fact that there’s a campaign to help Bruno, “things will take off pretty well”. “I think a lot of people had interactions with Bruno at some of the Tradies barbeques.

helped fund a few of those, we’ve probably put in around $10,000. Everything you do as an individual costs money and time and effort and that’s what Bruno’s done for quite a while now,” Mr Saunders said. “Having a base here is really important and I guess the funding means he can keep visiting and talking to people full-time which is what we want him to be able to do. “We know suicide’s been a real problem in our tradie community. A lot of people, young and old, are under pressure and Bruno’s the sort of bloke people are happy and genuinely want to talk to and share stories. That’s why he’s an important bloke.” Crown Lands minister Melinda Pavey told Dubbo Photo News she was pleased to see the shed allocated to such a worthwhile organisation. “This reserve will provide an operating base and workshop where Tradies In Sight can meet with tradespeople, and also provide mentoring and coaching for young people interested

in pursuing a trade,” she said. Mr Efoti stood in front of the new shed and looked at the people who assembled on short notice to support the anti-suicide message, including brand new police superintendent Danny Sullivan who called in to meet so many local community people all in one place. “Orana Mid-Western District Police are keen to work in partnership with the community to support initiatives to assist youth in our district,” Supt Sullivan told Dubbo Photo News. “Our focus is to work towards a safer NSW and working with community to achieve these goals makes us a stronger team. “Orana Mid-Western Police District has a number of youth initiatives under the NSW Police Commissioner’s Rise Up strategy, including Project Walwaay, and working with community to partner with these and other initiatives is a priority for us.” Anyone wanting to donate can go to:  gofundme.com/charity/ tradies-in-sight

 At the moment, Bruno is only able to operate this fantastic initiative for one day per week. TIS is very well known around the local area already through Bruno and Jo's commitment to helping our young tradies deal with mental health issues, imagine how many more young lives could benefit if TIS was able to secure funding to operate full time. – Tim Lenord, O’Brien Electrical

 TIS has been a great addition to the construction industry in Dubbo and surrounding area. We have hosted lunchtime gatherings in conjunction with TIS to let our tradies know that they are not alone and there is someone who is always there for them to talk to. 

 Bruno and his team work night and day to try to bring awareness to men’s mental health and improve the work life of workers. As a man who has struggled with mental (ill) health it’s incredible to have these people reach out and develop a connection with you as a person. They’re on the right track to make big waves in the mental health sector. 

AS Tradies In Sight ramps up for Dubbo and the wider region, Lifeline put out an alert that the Covid-19 pandemic is taking a horrible toll when it comes to the mental health and wellbeing of so many Australians. Last week, 3345 callers sought support from Lifeline Australia on a single day, the highest volume of calls in the organisation’s 58-year history. Lifeline Australia Chairman John Brogden said those horrific numbers show that Australians aren’t suffering in silence through the isolation, anxiety and uncertainty of the pandemic. “This has been a tough period for all Australians, and it has pushed many of those already struggling into crisis – but we’re glad they know help is out there,” Mr Brogden said.. “The fact that so many Australians are reaching out – many for the first time – and seeking help is a good thing. “Our volunteers are working harder than ever and giving people the support they need when they need it.” He said Lifeline expects high demand for services to continue through this current period and beyond, because these kinds of events leave a long tail of trauma, with so many Aussies at risk of suicide while they’re experiencing the mental health Impact of the isolation and uncertainty of Covid-19. “We want everyone to know that Lifeline is always there for them, 24 hours a day, seven days a week.”

THE TOONS’ VIEWS

Salvos call for more govt help for homeless The Editor, Last week was National Homelessness Week which gave The Salvation Army and other NFP organisations in the community an opportunity to highlight the key issues affecting people experiencing homelessness in Australia. These issues can go unnoticed, they are often hidden but their impact can be devastating, and something needs to be done about them. As the Salvation Army National Homelessness manager, I have seen and heard some heartbreaking stories. From mental health issues to alcohol and drug misuse, gambling addiction, family breakdown and cultural and economic intergenerational poverty. However, the most horrific trend we are seeing is the issue of premature deaths amongst those experiencing primary homelessness.

New research is showing that primary homelessness increases your risk of an early death between three and seven times, amounting to a life expectancy average of only 50 years of age. The most distressing part is that many of these premature deaths are preventable. People forced into homelessness are dying too young due to a range of factors including the high cost of rental accommodation, shortage of social housing, job loss and ill health which can lead to poor physical and mental health outcomes. The Salvation Army is calling for more support from the Commonwealth and State governments to ensure that all facets of homelessness are resourced, including the important issues of social housing supply. Dr Jed Donoghue, National Homelessness Manager for The Salvation Army

Freedom to be tribal versus right to free speech Greg Smart ❚ OPINION CAST your mind back to Trump Presidency and its abandonment of truth and respect as normal behaviour. The main architect of the Trump presidential campaign and its initial months in office was Steve Bannon. Bannon was the chairman of reactionary right wing website Breitbart News, and on the board of Cambridge Analytica, the digital analysis company that was found to be illegally obtaining and selling Facebook users’ private data. Bannon received a Presidential Pardon from Trump after he was found guilty of fraud and money laundering for redirecting money from his sham ‘We Build the Wall’ fundraising campaign to his own

pocket. After leaving the White House, he has touted his alt-right credentials and now hosts a podcast called War Room:Pandemic. On his podcast late last year Bannon called for the beheadings of Dr Anthony Fauci, the US government’s top infectious diseases expert, and FBI Director Christopher Wray. This violent rhetoric earned Bannon a permanent ban from Twitter. Bannon’s certain role in the January 6 civil uprising on Capitol Hill is still under investigation. That Bannon is not a person of good character should be obvious to anyone; but that did not stop Queensland Senator and Deputy Leader of the Nationals in the Senate, Matt Canavan, taking time out of his day to appear on War Room:Pandemic last week. The interview looks a lot better on Bannon’s CV than it does on Canavan’s. Canavan joined Bannon in railing against the Chinese Communist Party and the dominance of

the Chinese economy, and the need to keep fighting for ‘freedom’. This same type of rhetoric is also a favourite of Queensland MP George Christiansen, who spoke at an anti-lockdown anti-mask rally in Mackay and named civil disobedience as the only proper response to ‘laws that restrict freedom’. Christiansen added on social media the anti-lockdown rally in Sydney showed thousands of Sydneysiders protesting the ‘removal of freedoms under the guise of the pandemic’. The underlying message from these elected officials, Canavan and Christensen, was freedom is under attack, without of course specifying it was their version of

freedom that was being threatened and needed to be fought for. And why is it always couched as a fight? Bannon names his podcast the “War Room”. Politicians like Canavan and Christensen and their ilk urge their supporters to join them in their fight. Never once do these right-wing (and it is invariably right-wing) agitators name what they want freedom to do. Do they want the freedom to discriminate against foreigners, indigenous Australians and non-Christians? Be free to pillage the environment? Stop trading with Asia? Eliminate government red tape? Ban unions? Drive under the influence? Return to the 1950s? If they do, they should have the intestinal fortitude to say so in` As these agitators will stead of hiding behind the meanconstantly remind us, ingless rallying cry of fighting for they have the right the free freedom. As these agitators will constantspeech... a ly remind us, they have the right to

free speech. We see this right to free speech being exercised every time anti-science and anti-vaccination propaganda is uttered and endorsed by elected politicians, reactionary media outlets and unhinged social media users. What escapes the freedom and free speech warriors is the notion that a civil society runs on human solidarity and a modicum of law and order. This is never more important than in the time of a global pandemic. Canavan, Christensen and their cohort however give the impression they are contrarians both for the sake of being contrary, and to pander to an unsavoury post-truth element of society. Being a contrarian is not an issue in itself. But this is not a time for alternative facts or emboldening wilfully ideological agitators. z Greg Smart lives and works in Dubbo, and is a keen observer of current affairs.

On the passing of Hal Wootten, a great lawman By Riverbank Frank ❚ OPINION AS I mourn the passing of a great Australian and a man I called the lawman, Hal Wootten, I wonder how Indigenous voices will record his enormous contribution to our struggle and his recent passing. I have known about Hal Wootten for a long time and his words influenced the path I chose to take in life. As a 15-year-old I remember reading Kevin Gilbert’s ‘Because a White Man Will Never Do It’ in which a quote from Hal described the Aborigine of the day. From memory Hal said something to the effect that the young black Aboriginal person of today is educated, articulate, angry and most of all they know what they want. When I read that quote as an

impressionable and fairly angry young black teenager at the time, I took his words to heart. Only thing is I completely ignored the bit about education. I first met Hal through his lovely wife, Professor of Anthropology Gillian Cowlishaw. I met Gil and Hal at a function at Tranby Indigenous College in Glebe. I was blown away to meet Hal but in many ways was also still an angry smart arsed Aborigine. I remember having discussions with Hal and trying in some pointless way to win an argument. Hal and his wife Gil had always been great supporters of the first nations struggle in this country and my behaviour in the face of it must have seemed bizarre to both of them. One thing which may not be discussed as the platitudes for the life of this great man are delivered is Hal’s degree of basic human kindness. The Hal Wootten I knew was a kind, gentle man. His strength to

` One thing which may not be discussed as the platitudes for the life of this great man are delivered is Hal’s degree of basic human kindness... a

me was in his enormous strength of character. Although I often argued (or tried to argue) about black issues with Hal I can’t ever recall a single time when I won the argument. Hal would sigh, look at me, with the patience of Job and say, “Frank you’ve got to have a plan”. It took me so long to realise the truth, the value and the absolute great advice in what the great man was saying to me. I knew that Hal had been involved with my people since the earliest of times. The Aboriginal Legal Service Ltd, which was born in Redfern, actually came into being because Hal and people like Neville Wran, Frank Walker and Paul Landa, supported Indigenous Australians, saw their great need for proper representation in the legal world and actively assisted them to establish same. The birth of the Aboriginal Legal Service in Redfern as I see it was actually the beginning of an era in which the possibility in partnerships, rather than the oft heralded

need for self-determination, rose to the fore. It is a fact that the Aboriginal Legal Service Ltd grew out of a partnership and that before it came into being there were few if any black organisations, certainly not organisations which were recognised and funded by government. Once the Legal Service came into being other black organisations, housing co-ops etc sprung up nationwide. So you can see from those events and judge for yourself the part Hal Wootten and supporters like him have played in our black struggle. The formation of our legal service was a combined effort between blacks and whites. I don’t know how well that fact is celebrated these days but I would say to my people that a great man, a brother, a friend, and a champion for all Australians has gone from our midst and all of us in so many ways are diminished. RIP brother Lawman.

 Thumbs Up to the Wellington Eisteddfod committee and canteen volunteers for their wonderful job at this year’s eisteddfod. It’s amazing to see a small community come together.



Thumbs Down to those who drive unregistered golf carts on our streets. I register and insure mine and it annoys me that the police seem to turn a blind eye to this practice.



Thumbs Down to Transport for NSW. Whoever decided that we didn’t need rego labels on our vehicles needs to lose their pension. I never had a problem with renewing registrations, yet in the past few years I’ve twice had vehicles that ran out of rego because I didn’t receive a renewal in the mail and didn’t have a label on the windscreen I could constantly check as I walked past it.



Thumbs Up to all this rain, but, just for the next little while, I think we’ve had enough.

 Thumbs Up to George Cannon for the amazing

blankets she is hand-making for the residents at Dubbo Homestead. Your generosity is bringing joy to the elderly in our care. Thank you.



Thumbs Up to R&J Batteries in Erskine Street, for excellent service and product knowledge!

 Thumbs Down to all these people who’ve made

the poor decisions which have seen Covid run rampant in the community. Many of them are on very large taxpayer funded pay packets, so they’re not being impacted at all by their mistakes.



Thumbs Up to the teachers who’ve been putting in the extra work for my children.



Thumbs Up to Dubbo Photo News for referring to police as “cops”. If police didn’t like being called “cops”, they wouldn’t have a bumper sticker marketing campaign saying “Cops are Tops”. I lve Dubbo Photo News, let’s hope we only have fragments of Covid-19 in the sewerage and no-one in town is infectious.

Thumbs Down to a few malicious individuals in Dubbo who use fake social media proﬁles and fake-news

By KEN SMITH

to push their nasty agendas, they need a taste of their own toxic medicine, and I hope they get it.

100 years – 52,060,000 minutes. Too many great grandchildren to count. One blessed family. It’s difficult to imagine the history Joyce Poett has experienced. Joyce (Jocelyn) was born in Bristol, England and as a bub she was on a boat trip Down Under, spending her first birthday in Western Australia. During World War II Joyce met her husband Ronald Speechly in Western Australia while he was serving in the army, and with their first child the family moved back to Wongarbon in the late 1940s. There are many more stories



Thumbs Up to Dubbo Homestead for the amazing Christmas in July 2021, the food, the presents and the music were just fantastic.

 Thumbs Up to Kye at Experimac Orana Mall for setting up personal ringtones on my new phone.



Thumbs Up to the dedicated staff of John Whittle House at Orana Gardens for their empathy and compassion towards my mother during her last days. Their care and professionalism made a difficult time that little bit easier. Forever grateful.

shared emotionally by the family with each new generation. Joyce’s history is reflected proudly in the many faces in these photos, her children, grandchildren and great grandchildren. Happy Birthday Joyce. Still creating memories 100 years on. Pictured right: Joyce with her message from the Queen. The card includes her photo, and her signature is printed at the bottom. Her message reads: “Mrs Poett. I am pleased to hear that you are celebrating your one hundredth birthday. My sincere congratulations and best wishes on this very special day.”



Thumbs Up to the always friendly service at Pickles Auctions. Since Danny Conway took over as manager a few years ago it’s become a very pleasant experience to buy from the company, the entire staff is incredibly obliging.



Thumbs Down to the criminal scum who have been targeting the most elderly people in our local communities, you should be ashamed of yourselves.



Thumbs Up to our frontline health workers administering the vaccinations in this area. I’ve been told by many that they’ve been copping abuse from members of the public but it’s not their fault prime minister Scott Morrison didn’t bother get the best vaccine in the ﬁrst place.



Thumbs Down to those that destroy our neighbourhoods with loud revving cars and motorbikes, tearing around at all hours, speeding, racing, dangerous driving and riding in places meant for walking and pushbikes. No one wants to hear you.

Above left: Georgie and Joyce Above right: Kathy Miller, Joyce Poett and Bobby Bruce Left: Joyce with her great grandchildren Below left: Joyce with her grandchildren Below right: Joyce with her children, Robert, Dennis, Phillip and Susan, (In loving memory of Janice and Lorraine)

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.

STRANGE BUT TRUE z The oleander is the official ﬂower of the city of Hiroshima. It was the ﬁrst to bloom again after the explosion of the atomic bomb in 1945. z The Greek name for the mosquito is “anopheles”, which means “good for nothing”. z The earliest written record that mentions the practice of medicine is Hammurabi’s Code from the 18th century BC in Mesopotamia, which includes information for physicians about payments for successful treatments and punishments for medical failures. For example, payment was better for curing the wealthy, but failing to do so could result in the loss of a hand. z Live next door to a lottery winner? You might want to use caution while shopping: A 2016 study by the Federal Reserve Bank of Philadelphia found that you’re more likely to go

It opened in August 1978.

Later they can be popped into muffins and quick breads, as well as eaten straight out of the bag for a delicious treat. z “Do you love burgers? Here’s a great thing our family does that saves money and is very handy: When beef mince goes on sale, we buy a large quantity and pre-make many burger patties, seasoned and shaped just as we like them. Then we

separate them with butcher’s paper cut into squares. We put them in stacks, and then into empty bread bags to store in the freezer. When we are getting ready to cook, the patties don’t have to be all the way defrosted, just put on the grill and cooked up!” – A.J. z Okra makes an excellent stew thickener. But it’s quite yummy on the grill as well, brushed with olive oil and lightly seasoned. Just be sure you don’t wash it until you are ready to use it. There’s a natural protective coating on it, and if you wash it off, it’ll get slimy. z Old socks can be ﬁtted around the head of an old mop or the newer Microﬁber Mops. Spray with cleaner and clean away. When you are done, remove the sock and wash with laundry.

...inspiring locals!

Right-hook legend

By MARTIN COOK ALL friends and family of the late Ron ‘Shero’ Sheridan are invited to celebrate his life today, Thursday 12th August, 10:30am at St Brigids Catholic Church. This will be followed by his burial at Western Districts Memorial Park then refreshments at the Castlereagh Hotel. Dubbo CYMS have been mourning the loss of one of their most staunch and loyal members after Shero, passed away in the early hours of Wednesday 4th August 2021. Having suffered a major stroke on Monday, doctors were sure the 91-year-old wouldn’t make it through that night but typical of Shero’s fighting spirit and determination, his massive heart pushed him through another day, giving his family and friends time to say goodbye. Shero was born in Dubbo on 21 November 1929 to loving parents Jack (John) and Essie Sheridan, who both worked on the railway – Jack as a fettler and Essie in the refreshment rooms. Shero and his brother Vince were raised in the depths of the Great Depression in the back blocks of Gipps Street in North Dubbo. It was here that many valuable lessons were learned including the foundations of his minimalist lifestyle and the importance of mateship. Shero was in the first kindergar-

ten class of the original St Mary’s school in North Dubbo. Alongside Shero was his lifelong mate and fellow CYMS stalwart, the late Des O’Connor. Des and Shero graduated from St Marys to Sacred Heart (now St John’s Primary) where they became mates with the likes of John “Bumper” Kennedy, John Meredith and Vince Lance, all of whom went on to play for CYMS. Shero loved the simple things in life, especially when his mother and father took him to Sydney to visit his grandmother, who managed pubs while the owners were away. It was on one such trip to Redfern that Shero fell in love with the South Sydney Rabbitohs. His work life started at LH Ford before he moved to Keady Brothers Dry Cleaning. He worked here alongside another CYMS legend, John Butcherine, and a pugilist named Brian McQuillan, who became the object of Shero’s undefeated professional boxing career. Shero watched McQuillan win a fight one Saturday night and in discussions at work on Monday, Shero told the boxer “he got lucky”. The slightly larger McQuillan promptly suggested Shero should do his talking in the ring. Challenge accepted. A fight promotion was arranged at the CYM Club for the following Wednesday. A news story written at the time by Geoff Mann, read: “Displaying rare courage and an ability

to fight back under pressure, Ron Sheridan 9st 7lbs outpointed Brian McQuillan 10st 4lbs.” After referee Bill Rowe “prised the boxers apart and crowned Sheridan the winner” Shero was gifted his prize money: “a ‘shower’ at the end of the bout amounting to £3/8/-.” From Keady Brothers, Shero went on to work for many years under Les Dawson at Dawson’s Plaster Works. Then in the early 1970s he developed a great friendship with John Cook, who’d recently moved to Dubbo and who Shero met through the CYMS footy club. Cook worked as an Inspector’s clerk at the Police Station and arranged for Shero to take on the head cleaner role, or as he became known, the “undercover agent”. Shero had many wonderful years at the Police Station where he worked for more than 20 years, right up to his retirement. Probably his most famous story came the night then Assistant Commissioner Peter Walsh and a colleague decided to lock Shero in a cell as a practical joke. Only problem is, they forgot to release him and left him overnight. Next morning Walsh opened the cell to be greeted by Shero’s right hook.

THANK YOU TO OUR SPONSORS

John often introduced Shero as “the only man to have knocked out the assistant commissioner of police and gotten away with it!” Much to Shero’s embarrassment. For 75 dedicated years, Dubbo CYMS was his life. He was a handy winger although he often declared to his CYMS Old Boys’ mate Phil Palmer: “I was a much better centre!” His proudest playing moment was as a member of CYMS first premiership winning team in 1948, where he played alongside his brother Vince as well as great mates including Bumper Kennedy, John Meredith, and his cousin and captain Pat McTiernan, in the local pub comp of 1948. After his playing days he served as selector and committeeman for many years. Shero also went on to become one of the Dubbo CYMS Old Boys’ inaugural members and in 2019 was awarded life membership, fittingly alongside his mate Des. Shero loved his time in the Old Boys, particularly the friendships he developed with the younger blokes like Darrell Farr and Phil Palmer who both took Shero under their wing, making sure he never missed the footy. A big effort considering, in his 91 years,

Shero remarkably never owned a motor car and never had a mobile phone or landline connected. Shero’s biggest achievement with CYMS came through his generosity. Shero would often top a players pay cheque from his own wallet or help pay the bills of a youngster confronted with financial problems. A more loyal, generous and genuine man you will never meet. Shero was a proud ‘battler’ who pound for pound he was probably CYMS greatest benefactor. The money he paid players over the years was significant. Especially given his status as an aged pensioner. He was authentic and honest. Whether it be the South Sydney Rabbitohs, the Australian Labour Party, his Irish heritage, his Catholic faith or his beloved Dubbo CYMS he always pinned his flag to the mast and backed his team to the death. He’s the man you’d always want in your corner and you know he’d always be there. With his mate Rod Dunn, by his side, Shero moved on to heaven to be with his mum and dad, brother Vinnie and to have a beer with his great mates Des and Bumper. May he rest in peace.

Fox on the loose Contributed by BEC EADE Photos by MEL POCKNALL

DUBBO Dirt Bike Club held its second round of motocross racing for the season on Sunday, with young flyer Blake Fox cruising to victory in all the top senior race classes at the Morris Park racetrack. Fox dominated the senior classes taking to take a comfortable win in all three senior open classes, MX1, MX2 and All Powers. Narromine’s Luke Harding took out second in MX1 and All Powers with Bathurst’s Justin Slattery taking out third place in MX1 and Mark Cook and Jeremy Waters taking out second and third place respectively in MX2. With strong numbers in the junior classes, there were plenty of battles on the track. In the 50cc High Powers Ollie Cale came in first, followed by Blade Regan and Dante Greenway. Carter Beech took out first place in the 65cc, 7/U10 years, with Jo Staggs coming in second and Oli Chandler taking the final third place podium.

Hawks warm up for finals By GEOFF MANN Photos by MEL POCKNALL

THE Narromine Hawks found the net with deadly accuracy on Saturday in a show of force ahead of the Dubbo Netball A Grade semis. The combination of seasoned A Graders and fit, fast eyas (young hawks) have maintained their high levels throughout and with some players returning from rep rugby union commitments are on track for a strong tilt at the 2021 title. Narromine downed Macquarie Hornets 60-34 to stay on top of the ladder with Fusion Heat.

DEFENDING premiers Wellington showed they have the skills and determination to retain their Group XI title on Sunday. The Cowboys leg-roped Macquarie late in the game to steal

a 26-22 win and draw level with CYMS at the top of the ladder. Wellington could seal the minor premiership if they can beat Parkes at home on Sunday while Macquarie face arch-rivals CYMS. Last round matches will determine the finishing order with finals to start on Sat week. Left: Rylee Blackhall

Demons celebrate Michelle’s first goal Michelle George has those goals in her sights. PHOTOS: SUPPLIED

Contributed by KORINE COLEMAN THE Dubbo Demons travelled to a new venue to play against the Bathurst Bushrangers due to their grounds being closed. We thank the Parkes Panthers Football Club for being able to host multiple games through-out the day at Northparkes Oval and we congratulate them on their win. It is very typical for this oval to be windy, as if the team ate a tin of baked beans each. "Beans, beans, the magical fruit, the more you eat, the more you toot." As the time hit 13 O'Hundred hours, we were heading south and against the icy wind. A chain of short kicks and boom here appears Mikaela "Golden Child" Cullen who not only struck once, but twice early in the quarter giving the Dees an incredible head start. Debutante Jinnara "Flash" Tyson had an instant impact, tackling, taking strong overhead marks, putting immense pressure on the opposition and getting the ball inside the forward 50, creating goals for the forward line. Second quarter and we were feeling as fresh as a lawn being mowed. Rebecca "Keeping up with the Kardasians" Wilde had a mighty fine field day, being as spaced out as an ice block sitting on the cement. Running up and down the spacious oval receiving the ball, from either the reli-

able backline or the mighty mids. Kailee "Spring Chicken" Jones attacked the ball and loves giving AFL a go, mind you Kailee also enjoyed having breathers and not having to be like a rabbit on heat. Third quarter and sixteen upbeat Demon players were keen as a bean and approached the game as we always do, with positivity no matter what the scoreline is. Tahlia "Maquarie River" Sinclair has a knack of being around her teammates in the backline helping out and getting rid of the ball under pressure, pretty much like an ant to the picnic along the river. Although Tahlia probably would be oblivious to the ant and would happily continue to eat the snacks. Martyka "Bathurst Burr" Schlumpf is a quiet achiever in defence, Marty took a crucial mark in the goal square! She kicked the ball with such grace that it resulted in link ups between the midfielders along the far side of the ground and getting it to the forward line. Marty is an outstanding defender and saved another goal from being scored, she didn't even bother forcing the ball over the goal line. Final quarter and what a quarter it was. Emily Warner took a mark and could've had a shot at goal, she did the coolest thing, a short sharp kick to Michelle "GOAL" George who took a chest mark and took her time at having a set shot on goal and nailed her very first

goal ever! Everybody ran and celebrated with her, especially her fellow forward Lauren Hazell who ended up poking her in the eye. This was definitely the highlight of the match. Congratulations on your first goal Shelly! As the quarter was closing down, Michelle bumped her opponent off the ball, as this occurred the ball was just casually laying in the goal square and the sportsmanship came into it, instead of kicking another goal Michelle went and checked on the player laying on the ground. Alicia "Cheap Shot" Hafoka just soccered it in for a goal because well, you can. We also would like to thank the Bathurst Bushrangers who displayed such great sportsmanship and who are also a wonderful womens’ team to play against. Best of luck for the remainder of the two rounds as they still have a shot at making finals. Coach Peter Martinoli was estatic: "How good was that,” he said. “Playing and linking up around the ground for four quarters. Shelly kicked her first goal and we all celebrated, pleasure to see everybody get around her!" Final score Dubbo Demons 60 odd points defeated Bathurst Bushrangers 20 odd points Next game is at an unknown location against Bathurst Giants Saturday 14th August at 12.30pm.

Coach Peter Martinoli is pleased to see the teamwork building amongst his players week after week

Cassandra Kelly says “That ball is mine” as she brushed off her Bushranger’s opponent.

Sundee Combo: It’s winter, get over it! Contributed by ‘PISTOL PETE’ ONCE again our bowlers braved the cold, miserable drizzly conditions to roll up on the new greens at RSL Sporties North Dubbo. All bowlers have been taking the threat of Covid seriously and maintained social distancing, hand sanitisation and wore an interesting assortment of masks! There was plenty of chat about the vaccination process. Pleasing to see everyone has at least had their first shot. 42 players competed at Rhino Park in a very pleasing turnout. One of the most exciting matches was played out on Rink 7 between Beryl Scott, Karen Greenhalge and Col Dover against Roger Shirwin who teamed up with Ron Morrison and Doc Livingston. Rog-

er’s team opened the scoring with a good 3 shots before Team Dover squared it up on the next end. The lead fluctuated. Ron, Doc and Roger grabbed five shots at End 7; Beryl, Karen and Col dug deep, concentrating on their task, and added two and then a massive seven on End 14 then a great 7 at end 14. The final two trips to the mat resulted in shots each way and a 20-all draw! Shirley Marchant, Peter Bennison and skip John Davies formed team red against Helen Emblem, Robert Pfeiffer and skip Roy Frost (team black). The Reds shot out to an 8-2 lead after the first six ends; the Blacks recovered well scoring regularly and sealing a 14-11 win with a four on the last. Another red team was Frank Armstrong, Judy Knight and Peter Kelly against Tom Han-

do, Pete Ruzans and Kevin, the “Men In Black”. With the green running quite fast, team black controlled their bowls better, taking 16-2 lead after 7 ends. The Reds smashed out a seven when they next stepped up but it was a short-lived resurgence as the MIBs regained composure and took the match 21-14. Steve Kelly opposed Ron McAuley; Julie Brown was up against Ray Strawhan; and Phil Knight and Chris Cristante went head for head in an engrossing encounter. Chris’s team took the lollies 18-11 scoring on 12 of the ends. Leo Balstrad teamed up with Ross Pharo and Rick See to play Frank Vaughan, Cheryl Storch and Greg Brown. Rick’s men scored a 19 shots to 11 win despite Cheryl delivering some fine bowls. Colleen Heatrick, Dave

Davies and skip Gordon Scott were no match for Sue McAuley, Paul Woodridge and skip Peter Sinclair. They were unable to outpoint the bowls management skills of multi-championship skip, Peter who steered his team around the green for a 13 shot win. On the “TV Green”, Marion Carolan, Allan Stratford and Col Cottee suffered at the hands of Ron Millgate, John Cole and Eric Satchell who handled the clubhouse pressure to score a solid victory, 26-10. Top of the class: Ron Millgate, John Cole, Eric Satchell (26 points) Almost top of the class: Sue McAuley, Paul Woodbridge, Peter Sinclair (22 points) Resters: Peter Sinclair, Shirley Marchant, John Cole, Karen Greenhalge, David Davis

“It’s a beautiful journey - even if I haven’t won too many medals!” By GEOFF MANN

IT’S a philosophy that sums up Lyn Blinkhornes lifetime playing hockey. The always-smiling octogenarian was surprised by her Dubbo Hockey friends recently to celebrate turning over another date on the calendar. “I might be 80 but there’s still plenty of energy in the old body,” Lyn laughed. “I knew that DHA President and good friend Tracey Hardie-Jones and the girls were planning something for my 80th but I got the shock of my life when I walked into our Pioneer Park Complex and saw all the ladies in their wigs. It was a nice recognition.” Lynn began her love affair with stick and ball when she was in First Year at the Newcastle Home Science School. “I played right through secondary school and then after I left. When I was married we moved to Walcha for 16 years and then spent three years in Armidale. My girls and I had to drive into Tamworth from Walcha but after a couple of years on bad roads and arriving home later at night, we switched to playing indoors in Walcha.” The indoor hockey experience was a real boost because it was played in all conditions, all year round. ‘We played in the pavilion at Walcha Showground and used a leather puck,” Lynn laughed. Lyn – or as her mates call her, “Blinky” – has made Dubbo home

Happy 80th Birthday Lyn “Blinky” Blinkhorne!

for the past 35 years. She and her husband moved west when he was transferred as Branch Manager, Elders and they have made this city their forever home. “I picked up a stick as soon as I arrived in town and have been playing at least once a week ever since. Hockey is so much fun and I’ve been lucky because I haven’t had any serious injured (touch wood). “Blinky” has been glued to the screens over the past couple of weeks as our Hockeyroos and men’s Kookaburras have tested themselves against the best in the world. “The Olympics just get me in. I felt sorry for our girls. They had a few issues off the field leading into Tokyo but I was so happy with their performances. How wonderful to see so many country players representing us. “The Kookaburras were a bit unlucky to miss out on a gold medal but to bring a silver medal home is amazing. Lachie Sharp from Lithgow will probably get a ticker-tape

parade and maybe even a statue alongside Marjorie Jackson, the Lithgow Flash,” Lyn added. The 80-years-young sportsperson, mother and grandmother took to Veterans Hockey when she was in Armidale. She says she jumped at the chance to keep her career going. “We chose Participation, Friendship and Enjoyment” as our motto. That has been my life in hockey.” Today she plays with Vets All Stars in the local competition but no longer travels for tournaments. “I just love being here with the girls. Denise Latta, Wendy Lee, Marg Readford, Joan Rheinberger, Jan Giddings and I have played together for most of the years I’ve been in Dubbo. We’re good friends, we have coffee together and are always keen to get on the court against others who just love the game.” Lyn spoke highly of the Dubbo Hockey Association and the way the members have taken on different roles to keep the sport alive. “I am so impressed when I see

new faces, young ones coming into our sport and others coming back after having bubs or being away. I don’t always recognise them because they’ve grown so much but once they introduce themselves I can remember their early days at Pioneer.” Australia’s legendary basketball captain Andrew Gaze summed up

the Olympics saying “you don’t have to win a medal to have a beautiful journey. It’s about what we stand for in representing Australia and representing our sport. “I couldn’t agree more,” Blinky chimed in. “It is a beautiful journey and I’m looking forward to the road ahead”.

Roos’ Blues to play home grand final Prentice and Mackay stand tall in the water MARK Prentice is making it a regular occurrence and may come under handicappers’ scrutiny after another day of outstanding swims. Meanwhile, grey-feathered Duck, Roger “The Dodger” Mackay didn’t let him have it all to himself, sharing the spoils in most finals. Roger claimed the 25 metre Freestyle handicap in a tight finish that included most of the swimmers. The silver fox then joined forces with Dave “who’s

never lost his sparkle” Sparkes to win the Breaststroke/Backstroke relay. Mark the younger, sneaked Roger’s radar to snatch the JP Upholstery August Trophy when he swam closest to his time in the heats of the 25 metre Freestyle handicap. The “ap-Prentice” also clinched the closest to time in the 25 metre ‘fly. Bill Greenwood wasn’t letting the young fella spoil a good day’s swimming and chimed in with a creditable time in the 25

metre Freestyle, just 0.85 off his nominated time. The ever-consistent Norm Bahr – again buoyed by the brilliant mid-season run by his Manly Sea Eagles featured in most of the results despite being “treated unkindly” by handicapper John Wherritt recently. This Sunday some of the flock are off to Lightning Ridge for the annual competition with the Nyngan club while other Ducks will splash and paddle on the home pond at the same time.
