Dubbo needs to be the best it can be

HOW do we ensure Dubbo is the best it can be, socially, environmentally and economically – the best possible triple bottom line? Take Fletcher International Exports. It’s one of the nation’s most successful agribusinesses yet the owners and senior staff live and work in Dubbo. Fletcher’s supports Dubbo Photo News each and every week, not blowing its own trumpet, but by sponsoring our Dubbo Works’ section which highlights the enormous opportunity to have a more laid-back regional lifestyle and a rewarding career at the same time. That’s because the Fletcher family wants to see a town

their families can live in and enjoy, a thriving regional hub that offers most of the comforts of metropolitan living without the disadvantages. It’s a company that’s investing in Dubbo for the longer term, and we’re so lucky to have a company that employs so many people from those in senior executive roles right down to school leavers and people with no work history at all. Then there are smaller businesses like The Book Connection. Despite the dire predictions in recent times about bookshops suffering from the juggernaut of online shopping, Dave Pankhurst has taken the business from

strength to strength in the city’s CBD and advertises with Dubbo Photo News week in, week out. That advertising works and The Book Connection is loved by generations of locals. In turn, that advertising revenue enables us to provide the city’s favourite newspaper free of charge each and every week. Sometime later this year the paper stock we print on is expected to rise by 30 percent and that’s a cost that will be difficult to absorb. Help our advertisers - buy local. That ensures you can continue to pick up the Dubbo Photo News each week for free.

New flights connect bush and big smoke

DUBBO travellers will be pleased to hear Link Airways is adding direct flights to Brisbane and Melbourne from Sunday. Not only will Dubbo’s tourism sector benefit, but direct flights to an additional two capital will provide an easier reach for medical appointments, leisure and greater access to connecting flights. Link Airways aims to re-grow air services by connecting the Dubbo region to some of its favourite destinations. Flights to and from the Queensland and Victorian capitals will begin this weekend (February 27) and will run from Sunday through to Friday each week.

Crooks’ cash up in smoke

IT’S not often the Australian Taxation Office (ATO) gets a cheer, but there’s a pat on the back in order for its recent seizure of a quarter of a million kilograms of illegal tobacco in the state’s south. With help from the Murray River Police District’s Rural Crime Team, the ATO’s Operation Greyhound sniffed out the illicit tobacco, being produced on 24 acres of crops at Koraleigh – a Riverina village near the Victorian border. The excise that would have been collected from that amount of tobacco had it been legal, would amount to an estimated $42 million – those millions would have been lost to the NSW taxpayers’ purse. In case you were wondering what 250,000 kg of tobacco looks like, imagine 13 bulldozers lined up in a row – that’s what the haul weighed. Acting Assistant Commissioner Megan Croaker said it was “a sophisticated, organised operation”.

The voices of women in Dubbo By TIJANA BIRDJAN

VOICES of Women is a not-forprofit organisation that aims to encourage Australian women to share their stories in a short monologue. Creator and artistic director Lliane Clarke established the program in 2018 with a focus of transitioning the first-person story to a film or play. Lliane says through the program writers get the opportunity to see their stories presented from the professional actor’s eyes. She says “writers get inspired seeing their monologue told by someone else and develop stories even more” and shares an anecdote of a writer who made her character obsessed with her phone, but seeing it performed she reinvented the character and established her in a phone rehabilitation centre for her next edition. “Writers continue to develop their stories and progress to write books and they see their characters come alive throughout the performance,” she says, confirming there is a lot of variety in the stories. Lliane tells Dubbo Photo News it is vital for women to express their story with no limitations to celebrate “who we are and what we become”. “Through storytelling, women have the power to show resilience, courage and can captivate an audience through their sense of humour and belief,” she expresses, acknowledging that women have been denied top share their story, but she hopes to encourage every woman to come forward with a piece as it might have happened to someone else or has the potential to change outlooks. There are no limitations to submissions. According to Liiane, women have shared powerful stories about harassment, lack of equal opportunity and feeling valued as a person in personal roles such as a mother, a sister or a lover. She laughed when suggesting women are even encouraged to share dreams of being a princess in a castle, adding that every woman wanted that at one stage in their lives and some still do. “We definitely have heard women expressing themselves and stories that have come from that, but not enough in my opinion,” she continues saying “the female per-

spective is not heard enough”. Voices of Women is coming to Dubbo as part of the Amplify tour and Lliane is excited to discover how the women of Dubbo express their stories. Voices of Women artist in residence Kalina Davis will feature in the event capturing the audience with her storytelling. “I’m very excited to connect people with my work and have them perceive the pieces in their own way,” Kalina says, sharing that she has written three monologues encapsulating three diverse stories. “The topics carry power and feeling empowered through a women’s lens that almost provide an unsettling feeling to the audience,” she admits. Kalina says this project has been her first time writing a monologue and she is looking forward to having it performed through actors.

Voices of Women ensemble performer Georgie Saunders is confident she will do the monologues justice with her performance. “During the process we get a lot of chance for communication so we go back and forth and provide each other feedback on how we want the piece to feel,” Georgie says. Lliane confirms the event is to encourage women to speak about the roles rural and regional women pertain. Enchanting women across the nation, Lliane says she has strong connections to First Nations and diverse women from Australia who currently reside in the United States to share their storytelling. “We want to demonstrate our international collaboration with women, so they have a chance to publish their work to an Australian audience,” she says. “The world is a connected place, so we want to express that,” Lli-

ane says Voice of Women has a podcast to share the stories. “As women we already have so much in common with how we identify ourselves, but through the power of storytelling it is important how you see yourself living through someone else’s shoes,” she explains. Lliane mentions that audience can feel power through listening and really hearing what someone else has to say, she continues by stating people feel empowered understanding the essence of a story. “The power of losing yourself and coming back to reality when someone else shares a moment is magical and that is what I want to reflect,” she claims. The Amplify Tour will be coming to Dubbo Friday, March 4, at 6.30pm at Studio 138. For more information and to book tickets for the event head to www.voiceswomen.com

International Spartan racer doesn’t slow down By TIJANA BIRDJAN

FROM joining a bootcamp with her daughter to now becoming a leading Australian representative in Spartan races, Melanie Currey held the Australian flag while competing in Iceland in 2018. She says qualifying for the 24hour worldwide race in Iceland was an honour, pleased she got the opportunity to run through the paddocks and meet the Vikings in -10 degrees Celsius. “It was an incredibly unique experience and definitely my proudest achievement,” she said. Melanie told Dubbo Photo News that climate is the most challenging part as the first year she competed in Iceland there were blizzards and hail and when she competed in Sweden the race was on a ski slope, so it was high elevation and thin air. The favourite country she competed in? Mongolia. “You realise in the Western world that we’ve lost so much appreciation for many things,” she continued, saying that people with so little are so generous and kind. The pandemic has contributed to a hiatus in Spartan tournaments, but Melanie has stayed motivated throughout those empty years.

COUNCIL has met with residents concerned over a proposed boarding house set to be built in Macleay Street. The proposal for an 18-bed boarding house, with a single storey residence at the front, and a driveway down the side of the property leading to a double-storey residence at the rear, has divided the community. Local resident Emma Webster told Dubbo Photo News she had several concerns. “Macleay Street is in a very old part of Dubbo, known for its heritage-listed properties,” she said. “While the house to be demolished is not heritage-listed, it’s still part of the streetscape and the jacaranda tree out the front will be taken out as well. “There’s no room left on the block for any green space, and we

“Motivation is about routine and discipline, and it is vital to continue that routine, even if other things are getting in the way,” she explained, revealing that through training there are elements that people have control over. “COVID has been really difficult as I had nothing to work towards, but I know that I need to consume a healthy diet and a good wellbeing to get back on track,” she said, sharing that her biggest motivators are her grandchildren who love hearing about her overseas ventures.

“I want to be a good role model for my grandchildren and show them that they can follow their dreams and I want them to be proud of me." Melanie was awarded the 2020 Australian sportsperson in Dubbo and says it was an honour knowing all the quality athletes there are in the city. Now she's looking forward to the Australian Spartan title race she's been training for, which is in a few weeks. To help with her training and keeping her accountable, Melanie tells Dubbo Photo News that she

has a coach who has helped her mind-wellness throughout the pandemic. Adding to her challenges, she's recently had a moonboot removed which was in place to help heals stress fractures which occurred while training on different surfaces and terrains. “It was really difficult with the restrictions of limiting time outside and closing gyms so I had to use what I could for training – the change was tough on my body, “I’m very excited for the competition, but I know there will be a lot of work ahead,” she said.

Boarding house fears, council to rule yes or no By BROOKE JACOBSON

TRIVIA TEST

feel there’s really too many rooms in the development.” Ms Webster added it would be better for boarding house residents to have fewer rooms and more communal space. “There’s no privacy for the residents, the rooms are going to be very small, and it can lead to people congregating on the street,” she said. Ms Webster and several other residents raised their objections with councillors at the site of the proposed boarding house last week. “We all had a walk around and were standing under the jacaranda tree talking – the tree that of course won’t be there if the development goes ahead,” she said. “I love the Dubbo community and I think we can do better for people – we need to ask how we can nurture and encourage people to have a wonderful life

in a space that is safe and not overcrowded. “I’d like to see lower density than the current proposal and to see the tree remain and more green space.” Mayor Mathew Dickerson told Dubbo Photo News a decision on the boarding house would be made at this week’s council meeting. “The process on the boarding house development application has been good,” he said. “We have a new group of councillors here who said, “This is our first DA, we want to take our time, we want to talk with the developer, and with the people who are objecting, and have the time to consider it all”. “It’s been a good process and I hope everyone feels they’ve been able to have their say.” He added that council would likely make a “yes or no” decision on the boarding house, rather

than imposing conditions such as fewer rooms. “The DA is from a legally complying developer – we could of course go back to them and say could you make it 12 or 14 rooms, and then the developer would have to go back and consider if that was financially viable for them,” Cr Dickerson said. “So, while we could do that, I feel it’s more likely to be a ‘yes or a no’ from council.” Cr Dickerson said in the future, Dubbo would need to consider more high-density housing options. “We haven’t seen a lot of unit developments so far in Dubbo, but I think more of that will come, or other types of higher density living housing like townhouses, or duplexes,” he said. “But that of course won’t be dictated by council, those proposals will come from developers.”

Cool new science to end ‘fridge for vaccines

IN a development that will benefit regional and remote residents in particular, CSIRO researchers have developed a technique to help overcome the challenge of transporting temperature-dependent vaccines, which it’s hoped will increase access not only in Australia but in developing countries. The World Health Organisation estimates that at least 50 per cent of vaccines are wasted globally each year, with a lack of facilities and temperature control the major cause. CSIRO researchers have been able to encapsulate live virus vaccines with a dissolvable crystalline material which protects the integrity of the vaccines for up to 12 weeks and at temperatures as high as 37 degrees. Without refrigeration the vaccines would otherwise last only a few days. Researchers say this “breakthrough science” will now focus on proving the approach for other human and animal vaccines, including mRNA Covid-19.

COUNCIL’S culture and community committee has proposed a policy that would have residents mowing nature strips. The proposal was noted at the committee meeting on February 10, with consultation acknowledging that “the scale of nature strip and laneways across the LGA is too great for council to be expected to maintain”. The committee defined the nature strip as “that area of public land existing between the private property boundary and the curb and gutter/road verge”; and the “laneway is that land separating the rear boundary of properties in older sections of Dubbo city, Wellington and villages”. There were two options outlined in the minutes: 1. Council could adopt a policy which stipulates council’s responsibility for the maintenance of nature strips and laneways. This would necessitate a reduction in other services across the Local Government Area in order to allocate appropriate resources to maintain these areas to an appropriate standard. 2. Council adopts the... policy which stipulates that it is the responsibility of the adjoining property owner to maintain

nature strips and laneways. This option could present a minor inconvenience to property owners, but also leads to an increased likelihood that all nature strip and laneways are maintained to a suitable standard. The proposal has caused some social media debate, with residents on the Dubbo Regional Council Discussion Group Facebook page expressing a variety of opinions. “We have always done our verge, but I worry now about our older residents,” one resident posted. “Some of them find it too difficult to do the

bits near the gutter for fear of falling and others are not willing or can’t afford to pay the extra to get their gardeners to do the verge as well.” Another resident commented: “They (council) don’t mow them now as it is.” However, others seemed supportive of the move, with one post reading: “If we all chipped in a bit of our own time and effort and here and there, the less rates and dependence on government we’d be. This is the least we could do” and another saying: “I can’t see any reason why the adjacent landholders would

not want to showcase their residences by caring for their nature strip”. In its report, the committee noted: “It is not practical to expect council to maintain some or all of these areas. The financial and time cost would be exorbitant. No other council is known to maintain these respective areas routinely. The committed proposed to place the Draft Council Policy on public exhibition for a period of at least 28 days and would consider any public submissions in drafting a final version, before presenting it to council for adoption.

Four decades of East Asian inﬂuence By TIJANA BIRDJAN

LEARNING the craft and delicacy of creating pottery for more than four decades, local potter Geoff Thomas insists he is still learning new techniques every day. Combining his self-taught techniques influenced by East Asian practises, Geoff admits no two items are the same. “The beauty of an East Asian influence is that the point of them is to be quirky and not perfectly centred,” he continues, saying all the pots are carefully made by hand. Asian techniques allow for a softer approach, he says, adding that making pots by hand or on the wheel resulting in little wobbles, bends, or off-centres, teamed with wood-firing, results in something that shows lineage. The latest HomeGround exhibition at Western Plains Cultural Centre, All About Material, focuses on the processes involved in creating wood-fired pottery in an Anagama kiln. In conjunction of his kiln, Geoff uses locally sourced and imported materials such as feldspars, ash, silica, limestone and bentonite to create glazes, which are combined with seashells to set the work. “Wood firing in the kiln adds to the finishing touches of the pots

giving more colour and texture to each design,” he says. Geoff says that it is a four-day firing process with the kiln being lit only once a year. “You never know how the pots will turn out after the firing process as it is a chemical reaction influenced by the temperature, glaze, moisture and materials,” he explains.

Geoff shares that his process of creating pottery is “very close to force” as he produces his own clay and glaze blend and collects wood off his property. His passion fired up in 1972 when he took extension pottery classes with an art teacher, and he trialled a few lessons in experimenting with different materials and modern techniques.

This exhibition will showcase his growth in pottery from the past 40 years, and Geoff tells Dubbo Photo News he is honoured for the opportunity as it is his first solo exhibition. All About Material runs at the WPCC until May 1. The official opening and artist talk is being held on Saturday, February 26, at 2pm.

Huge rent rise fears refuted By BROOKE JACOBSON

REPORTS of rising rents in regional cities like Dubbo have been refuted by the Real Estate Institute of NSW (REINSW) Orana Division. A recent article from Propertyology identified 58 cities, including Dubbo, where rents for a standard house were likely to rise by at least $5000 this year. However, that’s simply not the case according to Laura Shooter, spokeswoman for the REINSW Orana Division. “In the rolling year to September 2021, figures from rental bond lodgements show that increases for the year in the median rent ranged from $17 per week for a two-bedroom dwelling, to $60 for a four-bedroom,” she said. “This period covered the 12 months of some of the worst of

the COVID-19 wave locking up the community, and the recent lowest vacancy rate in Dubbo.” Dubbo has 4520 rental bonds lodged at the September quarter, not “roughly 7000 rental homes”, as Propertyology’s Simon Pressley suggested. “Over 10 years from 2011 to 2021, the average annual increase in median rents in Dubbo ranged from $12 per week for two and three-bedrooms; $13.70 per week for four-bedrooms; and $14.50 per week for one-bedroom,” Ms Shooter said. “Rents will respond to supply and demand, but tenants only have a certain budget for rent and there is no ‘quick fix’ in bringing new housing stock into the rental market.” In a move designed to help the building industry speed up development, the NSW Government

has extended construction hours to include weekends, with noise restrictions in place. Construction and demolition works can now be carried out Saturdays between 8am and 5pm, and on Sundays from 9am to 5pm. However, construction work done on Sundays cannot include noisy demolition work that exceeds a certain noise and vibration threshold and limits the use of power tools or playing music from radios or other electronic devices by those on site. No construction work is permitted on public holidays. Dubbo mayor Mathew Dickerson said the extension to construction hours would be in place until March 31. This extension will be in place until 31 March 2022. “It will greatly assist in keep-

ing the local construction industry moving and speed up development,” he said. “One aspect of this policy is allowing housing development to continue seven days a week. “The migration of people into regional NSW including our LGA is well documented, and the housing shortage is no secret. “Getting more homes built is a focus for our region and this will help to speed up the process. “Development is a sign of a strong and growing economy and having busy and varied construction sites operating seven days a week across the region is a positive sign of a busy and versatile community.” He added Dubbo Regional Council would monitor and respond to any concerns about noise complaints until the order expired.

A classical and cultural reset in the composition realm

By TIJANA BIRDJAN

INTERWEAVING their cultural and classical music Chilean-born pianist and composer Daniel Rojas and Ensemble Apex String Quartet are commencing the Macquarie Conservatorium concert series with Latin American rhythms. Director Vivienne Winther says the musicians are actively performing together in Sydney and are excited to bring their performance to a regional landscape. Vivienne said the concert aims to bring a diverse range of music integrating with classical style and mending with different genres. “Daniel is a spectacular pianist and composer who releases a lot of his original works, but he also makes arrangements by other composers and interweaves it with his own work,” she said, emphasising Ensemble Apex String Quartet will bring a youth element to classical music. Daniel is set to reimagine Latin America’s most-loved music through piano and supported by Ensemble Apex String Quartet led by violinist Anna da Silva Chen.

“Their arrangements of soulful works are a heavenly alchemy of tango, mambo, salsa and Andean folk music fused with classical sensibilities,” and the program features music from Daniel’s recent release ‘Bliss of Heaven: Music of the New World’. “This concert will be both

something new and different for our Dubbo audience and I think people will enjoy it a lot.” Vivienne said the venue is quite small and intimate which allows the audience to feel connected to the artists performing, “I think both the artists and the audience enjoy

the feeling of being personal with the music.” “It also brings a more relaxed and casual atmosphere to the venue.” Vivienne believes a lot of younger people are drawn into classical music through the efforts of younger performers, and says it’s vital to bring in a range of national and international acts to continue to inspire music growth and interest. “It definitely adds to the cultural landscape, and I think a lot of artists enjoy performing regionally because it’s something they don’t often get to experience,” she said. Vivienne acknowledges Musica Viva as being a partner for five of the six concerts throughout the year and making regional touring possible. “Everyone is really excited to perform again, it’s been a terrible two years so we’re all looking forward to what is to come in the year.” Daniel Rojas and Ensemble Apex String Quartet will be performing at Macquarie Conservatorium on Friday 25, February at 7.30pm.

Film society’s ﬁrst double feature ﬂicks

THREE CHEERS FOR NEW NURSES Welcome aboard and, wow, are we happy to see you! That’s the message from residents of Dubbo and the region to the new graduate nurses who have joined the ranks of hardworking nursing staff at Dubbo Hospital. We’re set to welcome 30 new nurses across the year, with the ﬁrst intake including a new graduate midwife, already having hit the ground running. ‘ Many of the graduates have already rolled up their sleeves, contributing to the Covid-19 workforce response as students, helping out in vaccination and testing clinics. Pictured are some of the new cohort of nursing graduates who have hit the ground running at Dubbo Hospital. PHOTO: SUPPLIED

Worldwide pressures ﬂow-on to rising local fuel prices By STEPH ALLEN FUEL prices have continued to rise across the country, with central west NSW seeing an average price of 181.6 at the start of this week. Fuel Check reported that the state’s average had increased by 0.01 cents in a day, and by 2.9 cents since last Wednesday. The lowest price recorded in the state was 161.2 and the highest was 197.9. The beginning of the week saw an increase in prices across the region.

Dubbo’s average unleaded fuel price was 177.35. Narromine had an average of 175.7, Elong Elong 178.9, Wellington 175.9, Geurie 176.9, Molong 178.9, Cargo 181.9, Tomingley 175.9, Brocklehurst 169.9, Orange 171.15, and Bathurst 173.46. The cheapest service stations in each town were United Dubbo East (E10 173.7), Liberty Narromine (E10 169.5), Elong Rural (U91 178.9), Metro Petroleum Wellington (172.9), Independent Geurie (176.9), Independent Molong (U91 178.9), Metro Orange and 7-Eleven

Orange (E10 167.7), United Petroleum Bathurst Unmanned 162.9, Independent Cargo (U91 181.9), BP Tomingley (E10 175.9), and Shell Brocklehurst (E10 169.9). But don’t blame local staff and petrol station operators – the price hikes this year are being caused by factors out of local control. Market watchers are pointing to the international forces at play, including a dramatic increase in energy demands as Covid lockdowns ease, tensions on the Ukraine border, and supply problems at the world’s biggest oil producers.

Bloomberg reported this week that key per-barrel prices for oil had hit their highest levels since 2014. “The oil market globally is roaring higher because of demand that’s exceeding what some organisations – including the International Energy Agency – had been anticipating. That surge in consumption has compounded the fact that nations in the OPEC+ producer alliance are not managing to pump as much crude as they had said they would,” Bloomberg reported.

MOVIE lovers rejoice, for the Dubbo Film Society’s first double-feature of the year is coming to the big screen this weekend. On Sunday (February 27), the screen of the Dubbo Regional Theatre and Convention Centre (DRTCC) will come to life with not one, but two quality feature films of the kind you’re not likely to see at any mainstream cinema. Doors open at 1.30pm with the first flick on the agenda being My Salinger Year – an M-rated drama/comedy starring Sigourney Weaver, about a young university graduate who takes a low paying job with a New York-based literary agent who represents famed author JD Salinger, whose books she’s never read. The second film, Antoinette in the Cevennes, begins at 4pm after a short intermission, complete with complimentary refreshments. A French-language comedy/romance based on a travel account of famed author Robert Louis Stevenson (Travels with a Donkey in the Cevennes), the film tells the story of Antoinette, a school teacher, who secretly follows her married lover and his family on a trekking holiday.

DOING THE JOB WELL

The lockdown effect: Cooking on welding gas By JOHN RYAN WHEN Jason Green gets some spare time from his day job of welding and fabricating, the Alcatraz Cages & Animal Systems owner welds and fabricates. In the past year he’s collected components to build a bush kitchen that’s made all his mates envious and he’s done it in between his ‘real’ work. “I had a friend who was pulling down an old shearing shed. It had been standing for about 80odd years so I went out and pulled it down and brought it into town and built myself a nice kitchen out of it,” he told Dubbo Photo News, pleased he could create such a masterpiece from material you can no longer buy – it has to be found. “I do appreciate being able to build things like the kitchen, I can turn my hand to pretty well anything and I’m always happy for a challenge and like being able to come up with the right solution.” That’s obvious when you look at the vintage pub icebox he fixed up and installed, repairing the Slush Puppy machine that was turfed because it couldn’t be fixed, a machine that’s notoriously unreliable at the best of times. “I’m loving it, mate. If something breaks down it’s not a problem, I just put my head to it and fix it. It doesn’t take much to just have a have a bit of a go, you just trust yourself to have a go at things,” he said.

Jason Green loves the bush kitchen he’s created in the middle of Dubbo. Now he’s looking forward to Covid restrictions easing so he can properly share it with family and friends. PHOTO: DUBBO PHOTO NEWS.

Centrepiece of the camp kitchen is a four-door Aga stove – they’re hard to come by, they’re expensive, but Jason says they’re without a doubt the best stove in the world. “There’s less and less of them

around these days, a lot went to scrap or were left out in the open when people bought newer, more modern stoves thinking that was going to be an improvement.” As this project shows, the talented fabricator is always on the

lookout for interesting old things, and he doesn’t let any of it go. “If you see something, you might not need it tomorrow but you might have a project some day down the line; so if you see good things for scrap, or for the

right price, get it, don’t leave it until the day you want to do it and then have to pay top dollar,” Mr Green suggested, remarking that his mates and their families are fans of the set-up. Ironically, Mr Green can thank the Covid lockdowns for giving him the time to build his bush kitchen. “At some stages during lockdown I couldn’t get steel for my work jobs, I couldn’t get products, I couldn’t get floorboards or insulation for the kennels, so there was a lot of forced, unplanned downtime.” Australia’s still suffering from mass shortages because of supply chain issues and Mr Green says he was still struggling to find floorboards for the premium dog kennels he builds. “I can’t compromise by using cheaper products like pine boards because they flex, and when they flex the dogs’ toes get caught in the gaps, and if you’ve got a good working dog, he’s worth $50,000 a year to the operation,” he said. “My father taught me, ‘If you’re going to do it, do it well, do it once and build a better Australia,’ because (in the long run) it’s easier and cheaper to do it that way. “(That attitude) takes a bit longer sometimes, but the end result is there – and if everyone had that attitude, we’d have a much better Australia. “These ongoing shortages are affecting so many different people in so many different ways.”

CAREER IDEA

NSW police recruiting 1500 new officers By STEPH ALLEN NSW police are two years into the largest recruitment drive in the NSW Police Force’s history, with an additional 1500 positions to be filled over four years. A NSW Police spokesperson said officer numbers are currently stable across all commands. “We are a highly mobile, adaptable organisation,” the spokesperson said. “We are recruiting to the 1500 extra positions and normal attrition replacing retired and leaving officers. “There has never been a better time to join the NSW Police Force with the current recruitment drive in progress. “There are currently six Academy classes a year to help process sufficient numbers to meet the 1500 target.” The recruitment process can take as little as four to six weeks or as long as six to 12 months, depending on a number of variables such as outstanding medical is-

sues, fitness, or inappropriate associations, as well as the completion of first aid, typing and aquatic rescue certificates, or how fast applicants respond to information

requests. Applicants start on an annual salary of $76,324. “An officer can be placed anywhere in NSW and can look for-

ward to an exciting and worthwhile career,” the spokesperson said. Those who may be unsuitable for a role as a police officer are

people with a criminal offence proven or conviction recorded as an adult, bankruptcy proceedings or payment schedule, inappropriate associations with people or groups (such as Outlaw Motorcycle Gang members and criminals) at least two drink driving offences, Domestic Violence history or a person of interest in an enforceable Apprehended Violence Order, and poor driving history with a clear pattern of adverse driving behaviour. “We generally allow one offence for every two years of having a valid license,” the spokesperson said. What makes someone suitable for an officer position is being “fit, healthy” and someone with a keen sense of right and wrong. “Someone who likes to help others and wants to make a difference in people’s lives and protect their communities.”

Can you assist? By TIJANA BIRDJAN MOVING from Warren to Dubbo in 2015, Fitz McKay had a history of fundraising and volunteering behind her which intrigued former Can Assist president Fran Ellis. Welcomed to the organisation six years ago, Fitz is now the secretary of Can Assist which stemmed from her idea of staging open garden fundraisers. Can Assist ensures people have access to cancer treatment and care by providing financial assistance and practical support to patients in need. Fitz told Dubbo Photo News that she and her husband used to drive around Sunday afternoons looking for beautiful gardens big enough to facilitate hundreds of people. “It’s extremely hard to find the perfect garden,” she says, “you can find one and it is not big enough or some might be too delicate. “When I find one, I knock on their front door and introduce myself and ask if they want to be a part of Can Assist – I’ve only been rejected once,” she smiled. Her proudest moment throughout the years has been seeing the

hundreds of people walk through the garden and the event becoming more successful every year. “Last year we had over 800 people attend so that was special,” she continued, saying a lunch is set up for those who would like to donate further. Continuing the legacy from Fran Ellis, Prue Thompson became the president for a period, building and organising Can Assist into their current system. According to Fitz, the money raised for Can Assist stays locally to Dubbo and surrounding towns. She said the money does not go directly to the patient but is filed through oncologists and social workers to determine who is in need for financial assistance. “There are obviously more people we would love to help, but unfortunately there has to be a line drawn as we do not have enough money to assist everyone,” she said, pointing out that if Can Assist could attract more volunteers, there could be more fundraising events which in turn would mean more help could be offered. Fitz shares an anecdote of her and her team delivering food and

Asked if she was proud of herself for her role, she began to tear up saying “anyone could be a secretary”. “It’s the group around me and the people involved that make the job worthwhile,” she said, mentioning that it’s a terrific organisation with an extremely unique approach. “I’ve been educated, I’ve done previous work and I’ve lived my life and am very fortunate for the things I have, and I want to do something that is both resourceful and helpful and I found something,” Fitz shared. She also noted the importance of relationships, saying you must build connections and appreciation for the brand. “A number of people give us things to help our fundraising days and that’s valuable,” she smiles saying “it’s not me, it’s them.”

18 ADVERTORIAL

FROM THE BOOKSHELVES ] By DAVE PANKHURST, The Book Connection

IT is with real pleasure that we celebrate 39 years as a bookstore in Dubbo. Being part of the community has been a wonderful, personal and commercial experience as we interact with customers from the community and the whole region – extending from the Great Dividing Range and to the Queensland and South Australian borders. Over time bookstores have seen and lived through major challenges – the rise of internet trading, the decline of tertiary text book requirements, the electronic readers. My response to our ongoing trading is that those who continue to be our customers recognise that, among other things, the rise of retail giants has more to do with the drive for their financial dominance than local community development and services. And as in the last 600 years, books certainly play their role for all of us in gaining knowledge and satisfaction in life.

A key and positive attitude conveyed by those shopping with us from places such as Sydney, interstate and elsewhere, is that so many say that “it is wonderful to find such a great bookshop” and they continue by providing opinions on their browsing experience, supported with their purchases. Being a family-owned bookstore, we respond to the needs of the community and requests for books that reflect the interests of readers. To add to this is the volume of second-hand titles that come to us. That sector came about as book buyers have sought “out of print” books as well as us being able to say more often “yes, we have that title”. We currently have almost 50,000 books on our shelves. Back in 1992 a comment from a customer who knew that I had often travelled to USA in my farm machinery days, encouraged a visit to Powell’s Bookstore in Portland, Oregon. Our experi-

February 24-March 2, 2022 Dubbo Photo News

Dubbo’s local bookstore: serving the community for 39 years ence since then, and having had discussions with Michael Powell on three visits, it’s clear that listening to customers proves to be a valuable experience! Apart from books intended for gifts, when a book buyer makes their selection it often reflects their personal interests – and even expands that element. Some time ago a customer purchased “The River Wars” by Winston Churchill. We discussed that interest – my grandfather served in the British Army in the Nile Valley at the same time as Churchill (in 1895) and as a child I heard much about Churchill (but not the war details). Churchill’s physical experience on the war front a number of times must certainly have made him the real leader he demonstrated during World War II. Meeting with customers in our bookstore continues to be the element of wonderful interaction. Recently, a long-time visitor asked me how trade was, following the lockdown. Having reassured him that we were still progressing he replied with a quote he had heard from the Landrover Forum – “The continuing presence of bookshops is the only evidence of intelligent life still on the planet.” A book that has been a major influence for me is Maxwell Maltz’s “Psycho-Cybernetics”. Psycho obviously relates to the brain, and “cybernetics” is the technology developed during WWII which corrected the direction of a missile back on target if weather or other influences impacted on it. If applied in business, when one experiences a diversion, the process sets us back on target, and so many readers can relate to a book that has had an impact on life for them. Just the other day a customer in Narromine phoned to thank us for the arrival of his book which had been ordered by phone. He was impressed because it was only the day before that he had ordered it from us. I mention this to reassure folks that we do have a wide range of books, we can compete with the mega-online businesses, and we mail orders to customers all over Australia each weekday. During Covid lockdown we

have received thousands of second-hand books, many of them as a donation and we then pass the value of those books on to the Royal Flying Doctor Service. Over time we have collected photos of authors in our bookstore – among them Jamelle Wells who wrote “Court Reporter”, De Cresppigny who wrote “QF32”, Anthony Albanese “Telling it Straight”, and recently Al Mabin – she joined the Brinkworth cattle drive as a drover in north Queensland and took photos of their drive through the drought country, passing through the local regions of Coonamble, Trangie, Condobolin, and on to the Riverina. Her success with the publication of that book led her to produce others including two entitled “The Grower” – one on crop and vegetable production and the other on livestock. The coverage of these books range across the country.

The opportunity for us to promote authors who live in the region has real value. Pat Clark has written six books for children, Kate Gadsby wrote “Convicts, Capitalists and Corruption”, Bill Stanford’s “Skirmish Hill”, Cathy Colless’ “Diamonds In The Dust”, Michael Nelmes’ “Too Damned Far Out West”, Sandy Thorne’s “My Mate Gidgee”... These are just a few of the very talented authors from our region. Alisa Callen wrote “Snowy Mountains Cattleman” and Margaret Stevenson wrote “The Covid 19 Pandemic of Fear”. And so many other regional authors have contributed to the wealth and breadth of our bookshelves. Books influence our lives greatly – and in so many ways. A recent release by Carl Reinecke is “Books That Made Us” and in the novels which he reviews he

considers how these captured everyday lives and exceptional dreams, and how they have held up a mirror to the nation. They reflect on the good and the bad, and Australian culture. He discusses how writings by Marcus Clarke, Melissa Lucashenko, Patrick White, Peter Carey, Henry Randell Richardson and others have kept us reading all our lives. When I think of leadership, Abraham Lincoln immediately comes to mind as the model. He and Thomas Jefferson had a lot to do with the development of the system of government in the United States. With discussions surrounding the best “head of state” model for Australia are currently heating up, it’s worth reading Jim Hayes’ “Australia’s Best Unknown Stories” for some solid background. Hayes steps us through the development of our country’s system of government. Australia’s history, from the separation from British control and the establishment of our Constitution and self-government, and with Edmund Barton being our first Prime Minister, in some ways replicates the moves made in the USA. Books impact on our lives.

Christianson & Salter wrote “100 Books That Changed the World” and when you read it, it becomes clear that “Gray’s Anatomy”, “Aesop’s Fables”, “King James Bible”, “Rights of Man”, “Diary of a Young Girl (Anne Frank)”, “Lord of the Rings”, “How to Win Friends & Influence People” – and 93 others – have a message that can create a life attitude for us. Another text compiled by Colin Slater is “100 Children’s Books”. It includes a collection that can inspire young people with quality reading as well as inspiring their thought processes.

Not many booksellers have written about their work experiences but some interesting people have been involved. Well known author George Orwell (his real name was Eric Arthur Blair) worked in Booklovers Corner in Hampstead, UK. Author of “The Diary of a Bookseller” Shaun Bythell uses extracts from Orwell’s text as a forerunner to each month of his diary. Bythell owns The Bookshop in Wigtown, Southern Scotland, and since buying it when he was 31 years old, it has grown to be the largest second-hand bookshop in Scotland. I am currently reading his latest book “Confessions of a Bookseller” in which he writes, “The shop is now busier than last year... I think because people have begun to realise that online trade has an impact on high street... Nobody wants to live in a place where shops are closing all around and nothing is moving to fill the void. Even governments have finally begun to recognise that the demise of high street and the questionable tax affairs of online traders are having a deleterious effect on people’s lives.” I certainly agree. For any business to continue over time, it is a recognition of the community and the operator to have a common initiative – to work effectively. Our staff – Rae, who has been in the business for 20 years, Beverly, for five years, Chris and Mardi – join me in thanking all those book readers who have supported us over time. My family came to live in Dubbo from out west 58 years ago and it has been a pleasure to live in a location of such support. Thank you all for continuing to join with us to help make Dubbo such wonderful location. Enjoy your browsing, Nancy & Dave Pankhurst

Central west country stars to battle in festival competition By STEPH ALLEN TWO central west country singers will face off in the 50th Tamworth Country Music Festival’s Toyota Star Maker competition this year. Katie Jayne from Dubbo, and Clancy Pye who lives in Orange, will join the competition’s top ten in a series of free pop-up concerts in the lead-up to the grand final event on April 19. Each participant will perform five songs at each of their home towns’ local Toyota dealership. Toyota Star Maker coordinator Cheryl Brown says it will be a great opportunity for finalists to perfect their craft in the leadup to the grand final. “This year’s top ten are a truly talented and inspiring bunch, and these free concerts will give fans a taste of what’s to come in this year’s Grand Final event,” Ms Brown said. Ms Jayne first began performing professionally at 25 when she moved to England. “I’d always been interested in writing songs but was too shy to perform until I was in a new country where nobody knew me,” she said. “I started my first country band over there, we got to play some amazing festivals and from that point on I was hooked.” Despite her nerves, Ms Jayne is excited to be part of the Tamworth music festival, which she first performed at in 2016 with her UK band. “I’m so honoured to have been chosen to be a finalist in the Toyota Star Maker competition, it feels surreal. “I’ve watched this competition for years, and to have the opportunity to be on that stage is such an amazing feeling. “I really love the mateship that all the artists have with each other and the enthusiasm from the fans is like no other.” Ms Jayne described herself as an autobiographical writer, inspired by the likes of Garth Brooks’ storytelling and Miranda Lambert’s girl power attitude. Ms Pye grew up in a music family on a small farm outside Oberon, and first picked up a guitar at six.

“By the time I hit primary school, I was out performing most weekends with my family band in pubs and at events around the central west,” she said. “I was exposed to all kinds of music from a very young age, particularly country music. “I feel incredibly privileged to be a Top 10 Toyota Star Maker Grand Finalist... (it’s) the pinnacle of talent searches in Australian country music and so many of the artists who I look up to have built their careers off the back of winning Star Maker including Keith Urban, Beccy Cole, Travis Collins and Kylie Sackley. “There is a lot of depth and talent amongst the Top 10 grand finalists... There is a lot of diversity which I think is re-

ally reflective of how Australian country music is continuing to progress and be received amongst a growing audience of fans.” Inspired by the likes of Kasey Chambers, Shania Twain, the Dixie Chicks and Lori McKenna, Ms Pye, who has written over 120 songs in two years, tries to write songs that people can “relate to in some way and take something away from”. “To me, there is nothing more gratifying than being able to create an impact on people through song, and to have people singing the words to songs I’ve written is really special,” she said. Ms Jayne will perform at Scone Toyota at April 1 at 4pm. Ms Pye will perform at Orange Toyota on March 4 at 4pm.

Staying connected when the time comes for residential care By TIJANA BIRDJAN FORMER Coonamble resident Frank Wooding has had his fair share of hardships, most recently living in a nursing home during a pandemic.

ty of going blind by Christmas. “I need to go to the hospital once a month for eye testing,” he shared. He asked his daughter to enrol him in residential care. “It is very difficult for me because I am losing my capability to do things myself,” pointing out that as Covid restrictions increased, he needed someone to go with him if he had to go outside the facility. “I know I’d be no better if I was at home, here I get a lot of help from the nurses when I need it.” Frank says there is a pool where he often does laps which helps his knees, and he walks

for 30 minutes each day. Frank is the father of five daughters, and he says they take turns visiting him to have lunch. He's a firm advocate that it's vital to stay connected to other people as much as you can. "It is very difficult during this time as there are a lot of restrictions, but it is important to stay in contact and make sure people are safe.” Orana Gardens Lodge has multiple activities to keep residents entertained including card games and reading activities, and Frank says he enjoys having breakfast with his friends.

Crime snapshot IN Dubbo, like any town or city, there are going to be people committing various crimes on an ongoing basis. I’m sick of seeing social media comments under crime posts which claim “only in Dubbo” or “so glad I left Dubbo” – these comments are criminally insane, because any place where there are people, there will be crimes. Here’s a bit of a summary of some of the days of this week that was in the Orana Mid-Western Police District and remember, that includes Dubbo, Mudgee, Wellington, Narromine and Gilgandra, so we’re talking a large geographical area and a lot of people. Most days the Orana Mid-Western Police District puts out a public Crime Activity Report which anyone can access and it’s a handy tool when you see some Facebook warriors launching into overdrive about the way the city is going to hell in a hand-basket. Every crime is one too many especially if you’re the victim of that crime but please don’t believe the over-the-top social media claims that crime in Dubbo is out of control. The Crime Activity Report put out on Tuesday, February 22 showed local police were investigating nine property offences reported in the previous 24 hours. Bear in mind those breaks-ins or whatever could have been perpetrated by just one or two crooks. During that 24-hour period, four people were arrested and charged with various offences across the entire police district. The Crime Activity Report released on Monday, February 21, depicted what had happened during the previous 24 hours and saw the cops investigating seven property offences reported in that time. Across the entire police district, six people were arrested and charged with various offences. Let’s go to Friday 18, where police said they were investigating nine property offences reported in the previous 24 hours, a period where seven people were arrested and charged with various offences. On Thursday last week, February 17, police were investigating six property offences reported in the previous 24 hours and an 10 people were arrested and charged

with various offences across the Police District during that period. I hope you get the drift – yes, crime is always happening, but it’s hardly a crime wave. And the way we can help ourselves, and police, is to ensure we don’t make it easy for these crooks in the first place and then, if there is a crime, report it as soon as possible.

Westpac Chopper rescues WONDER how we got on without the availability of a rescue chopper. Around 9:40pm on February 20 the Westpac Rescue Helicopter was tasked by New South Wales Ambulance on a primary mission to Baradine, north-west of Coonabarabran, to a motorcycle accident. A 13-year-old boy sustained unknown injuries in the accident, he was treated on scene by paramedics before being road transported to Baradine showground to rendezvous with the helicopter. The Helicopter Critical Care Medical then stabilised the boy before airlifting him to John Hunter Children’s Hospital for further treatment. On February 16 the chopper flew to Lightning Ridge where a man fell down a mine shaft and his quad bike landed on him resulting in multiple injuries. That’s a scary scenario on any level. The 58 year old man was recovered from the mine shaft suffering limb and possible collar bone fractures and was treated and stabilised by paramedics and the Helicopter Critical Care Medical Team. He was airlifted to Tamworth Rural Referral Hospital in a stable condition for further medical treatment.

Firies guided to hall by blaze NARROMINE 401 Firefighters had a busy weekend, getting an early wake-up call on Sunday (February 20) to the old Girl Guide hall in Meringo Street which, on arrival, they found well alight. Firefighters from Trangie also arrived on scene, as well as various Rural Fire Service Brigades, Dubbo’s HAZMAT crew, and other emergency and essential services. There was extensive damage to the hall but, thankfully, no injuries with the building unoccupied at the time of the blaze, although seven people were evacuated from a nearby building as the hall’s roof collapsed. The fire started about 5am and was fully extinguished by 7am, with crews from six pumpers battled the blaze from all sides while wearing breathing apparatus. It’s another piece of local history forever lost – the hall was a former World War II building which had been moved into Narromine after the war ended. Police are investigating the cause of the blaze. At this stage Dubbo Photo News has been told it looks suspicious.

Road fatality A 33-YEAR-OLD man has been killed after the ute he was driving crashed into a tree on the Benda Bullagreen Road at Collie, about 80km north of Dubbo. A passing motorist alerted emergency services that a white utility had left the roadway and crashed into a tree at about 12.10pm last Saturday (February 19) and when they arrived they determined the man had died at the scene. Police established a crime scene and commenced an investigation into the circumstances of the crash, now they’re appealing for

witnesses, including motorists with dash-cam vision, to contact Dubbo Police Station or Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000. A report will be prepared for the information of the coroner.

Yet more road deaths IT’S been a pretty awful week or so on our region’s roads, with two truck drivers killed after their road trains collided head-on just outside Brewarrina at a bridge on the Kamilaroi Highway about 7pm last Saturday night (February 19). Police say the trucks both caught fire and the highway was blocked in both directions for some time. Officers from Central North Police District are investigating the circumstances surrounding the crash and a report will be prepared for the information of the coroner. Anyone with information or dash-cam vision relevant to this investigation is urged to call Brewarrina Police or Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000.

He continues to support the RFS and provides invaluable assistance to the Orana Team – talk about a lifelong commitment to whatever communities he was a part of – congratulations David.

Dubbo bird rescue BEING a firefighter isn’t all about fighting fires and that was the case for the 280 Station crew when they spent some time on Tuesday morning on the roof of Dubbo Square while rescuing a cockatoo which had been trapped in some wire on top of the Coles’ sign. The bird was freed and passed to WIRES so it could be whisked to a vet at the zoo. As well as looking after our wildlife, these animal rescues are great training exercises for the local crews.

Bush firie honoured A LOCAL volunteer firie was one of just eight NSW Rural Fire Service (RFS) recipients of the Australian Fire Service Medal (AFSM) this year.

GOING BACK IN TIME THROUGH SPOWERS AND SYME By TIJANA BIRDJAN COMMEMORATING the artistic friendship of Melbourne women Ethel Spowers and Eveline Syme, Western Plains Cultural Centre will showcase an exhibition through the perspective of two pioneering modern artists who have been largely overlooked in history. The ‘Spowers & Syme’ event will be showcased in the centre from February 26 until May 1 with multiple print-making workshops running throughout the exhibition period. Curator Kent Buchanan said he is thrilled to showcase the exhibition as the Western Plains Cultural Centre is one of only three galleries displaying the pieces. “The show is a part of the National Gallery touring exhibition and it only furthers our relationship with the institution,” he said, remarking that the WPCC is recognised nationally as a leading venue in terms of being able to present large shows that generate an audience. ‘Spowers & Syme’ encapsulates the lives of two women, Ethel Spowers and Eveline Syme, who met in Melbourne and were both daughters of rival media company owners who became well known in the modern art industry during the 1930s

and ‘40s. Using their innovative approach of woodcut techniques, ‘Spowers & Syme’ showcases their unique capabilities through prints and drawings reflecting everyday observations of childhood themes, overseas travel and urban life. The exhibition is a part of the ‘Know My Name’ project hosted by the National Gallery to provide acknowledgement to pioneering women who were not

recognised during their time. “This show will really familiarise the audience with the importance of artistic women through modern history and open avenues for appreciation,” he said. “Their pieces are an accurate representation of their time which display the growth and development of a busy city in an urban landscape,” he continued, saying the show is suitable for a range of people as it illustrates

the reflection of women during that era. “This show gives us a chance to educate so it will be a really good opportunity for schools to bring in their students to teach them about historical figures,” he said, adding it also shows a lot of imagery using delicate techniques. The Western Plains Cultural Centre is hosting a 1930s-inspired cocktail party to launch the event on Friday, February 25.

PEOPLE travelling from Sydney to Dubbo will soon be able to make phone calls mid-air thanks to a new partnership between communication companies Pivotel and Skyfive. Pivotel senior marketing and communication manager Kieran Blakemore said the service will provide connectivity for WiFi calling services and data calling applications such as WhatsApp, Messenger, Zoom, Teams, Skype or the company’s data calling application PATT (Pivotel App for Talk and Text). While the airlines offering this service are still

under wraps, the select aircrafts will allow calls using WiFi calling as configured by users’ mobile carriers. “If you can make an international call ordinarily, then you will be able to on an aircraft also,” Mr Blakemore said. “Data calls via applications will depend on the individual app, some require subscriptions. “For example, Pivotel’s PATT app requires a subscription, and you can opt for an optional International calling package.” Skyfive director Zoltan Losteiner said Skyfive is currently building the trial network with Sky-

five’s Australian partner, Pivotel. The network is expected to “demonstrate the capabilities of the Air-To-Ground (A2G) technology”. “The technology is already covering over 40 countries in Europe and over 300 aircraft are already connected,” Mr Losteiner said. “Once the network goes live, Australia will be one of the first countries outside of Europe to enjoy this ground-breaking service. “The solution provides high speed internet access to phones, tablets and computers of the passengers.

“It will be the same or better than what you can do with your home Wi-Fi as it is high speed, up to 100Mbps, and low latency connectivity.” Mr Losteiner said there will be no limitations when it comes to who you can call, with passengers able to make both voice and video calls to anyone in the world. “With such speed and capacity, passengers will be able to stream video, Netflix, YouTube, make Zoom conference calls and even play online games,” he said. “We are also in discussion with first responder organisations – using

A2G technology they can increase the efficiency of their work, and connect their medical equipment to the hospital, so specialists (on the ground) can remotely help the patients on the plane.” Pivotel and Skyfive are currently arranging demonstrations with domestic flights to trial the new technology. “You can expect lower connectivity costs compared to other solutions based on satellite technology, as the A2G tech has significantly higher speed, more capacity and lower costs so I am sure the passengers will enjoy the benefits,” Mr Losteiner said.

NEWS EXTRA God thank the Queen

By JOHN RYAN

LAST Monday (February 21) marked 30 years since Queen Elizabeth II last visited Dubbo and there were plenty of locals eager to share their memories after Dubbo Photo News put out the call. Rae Willing popped into the office and astounded us with the completeness of her memorabilia from the 1992 Royal luncheon, complete with photographs, menu, place cards and the luncheon invitation itself. “In 1992 my husband John was president of the golf club so we got an invitation to attend the dinner,” Mrs Willing said. “We were sitting with our backs to the royals when they walked out and John turned around and shook hands with the Duke and just said “welcome to Dubbo” and of course with all the security, I thought the next thing was he’d be shot! I couldn’t get over how tiny the Queen was. “I’ve kept everything from that visit: our invitations, the table place cards, newspaper articles, photo-

graphs because to me that’s history, it’s our family history and it’s important to preserve it.” It wasn’t Mrs Willing’s first brush with the Queen – she’d just started school at Trangie Central when Queen Elizabeth II made her first visit to Dubbo. “In 1954 when the Queen visited I’d just turned five and both my parents were returned army and they came down from Trangie to march. My younger brother and I stood in front of Western Stores in Macquarie Street (now Myer) to watch the march and the Queen go past. After that my grandmother took us around to Victoria Park but I don’t remember much of that at all,” she said. Joan Scott, 92, called to tell about her experiences during the 1954 Royal visit. With late husband Jim she drove into town from their farm, Merrinong, about 70 kilometres out of Dubbo in the triangle bordered by Collie, Warren and Narromine. Mrs Scott recalls they parked on the riverbank near the old low-level bridge where the

LH Ford Bridge now runs. “I have very good memories of it,” she said. “It was hot and we had our nine-month-old daughter with us and there weren’t 12 people at that location when the Queen went past, and we were very close to her. “I’m a very strong royalist.” Tanya McPhail sent in some amazing photographs taken by family members during the 1992 visit, it seems they had pretty much scored some front row seats. “It was a very hot day and we arrived two or three hours before the Queen was due so we could get a good position for the children to see her and present her with a rose,” she said. The kids were able to present their rose to the Queen. Cheryl Schloeffel was living in Dubbo in 1992 and took some great photos of the crowd. “My husband’s family are an old Dubbo family been in Dubbo since the late 1800s.”

NEWS EXTRA Rural NSW urged to stay sun smart AS we reach the final days of summer, locals are still being encouraged to stay vigilant when it comes to sun safety during outdoor, daily activities. President of the Rural Doctors Association of Australia, Dr Megan Belot, said skin cancer is the most commonly diagnosed cancer in Australia, and melanoma rates are higher in rural, regional and remote areas than in the cities. A Western NSW Local Health District spokesperson added that the summer heat can put a lot of strain on the body, and can cause dehydration, heat stress and heat stroke, and make underlying health conditions worse. “People over 75, people with chronic medical conditions and people who live along are pa r t ic u la rly v ulnerable,” the spokesperson said. “Prolonged exposure to UV from the sun also increases the risk of developing skin cancers, people should take particular care if they have fair skin or experience short bursts of extreme UV exposure, or have experience multiple sun burns during childhood or early adulthood – this is when you’re most likely to cause damage to your skin. “Conditions like this can cause serious illness, hospital admissions and even death in the most severe cases so we encourage people to take simple precautions to reduce the risk of heat-related illness, and exposure to the sun.” To avoid illness, locals should try to avoid the heat of the day by staying indoors and minimising physical activity when it’s hot, keeping the house cool, and drinking plenty of water. “If you need to go outside try to stay out of the sun as much as possible, apply sunscreen and wear clothes and hat that provide coverage for your skin,” the spokesperson said. “Stay in touch with elderly neighbours, children, friends and relatives particularly if they may be vulnerable, and have a plan if you find yourself in a position where you need help. “Get your skin checked regularly, you can do this yourself or by speaking to your GP, and pay particular attention to any moles or changes to your skin. If you notice any changes that concern you, contact your GP immediately.”

Creepy crawlies plague gardens thanks to recent wet weather By STEPH ALLEN GREEN thumbs and gardening enthusiasts have seen a number of unwelcome additions to their garden beds during the recent wet weather, with fungus and pests plaguing plants across the Central West. Petrie’s Mitre 10 in Dubbo has seen an influx of locals seeking out remedies for the unseasonably wet and mild weather. Garden centre manager Chris Bray said instead of hot, dry weather, the region has been receiving more humidity and milder temperatures, leading to a number of issues. “February is one of the hottest months of the year in our climate. Normally we’d be watering more and using wetting agents to retain moisture in the soil, and using mulch to retain moisture in the soil,” he said. “Because the moisture is readily available due to rainfall, we haven’t had to use a lot of those things. But on the flip side, there’s an issue with fungus and insects. “Insects are a big one this year. Insect numbers are higher... we’re seeing aphids, and some grasshopper activity, as well as a bit of caterpillar activity.” The Macquarie St hardware store offers specific and suitable insecticides and fungicides to treat these issues. “They can be applied to plants to basically keep those two issues under control. It may not wholly

fix the problem or eliminate the problem, but it will lessen the effects,” Mr Bray said. “With fungal control, you really do need a change in weather – a drier climate to eradicate the fungal issues. But these fungicides will keep it under control. “It’s basically for the general health of your plants. A lot of our customers who have come into the store this summer are growing leafy type vegetables

and fruit – watermelons, rockmelons, zucchinis – and a lot of those vegetables and fruits are susceptible to fungal problems in wet seasons. “The health of the plant can be impacted and they can be not getting as big a crop as they normally would and not only that, the yield of the crop as well.” In the beginning of Covid, the store saw a huge increase in the garden centre as locals chose to

begin growing their own produce due to supermarket shortages. “Our seed stands got virtually wiped out. I’ve been here nearly 21 years and I’ve never seen our seeds look so bad,” Mr Bray said. “On the flipside, a lot of customers regained an interest in gardening because they were spending more time at home and wanting something to occupy themselves with. A lot of customers have continued that hobby.”

Two years of Covid add a layer of anxiety for school students By STEPH ALLEN AFTER two years of lockdowns, home-schooling and prolonged isolation, concerns have been raised about the longterm effects of the pandemic on children. New research from leading integrative healthcare brand Flordis has revealed that 67 per cent of Australians are worried about how Cov-

id has impacted students as they have transitioned back into the classroom this month. Leading child psychologist Deirdre Brandner said the move back into schools still holds some “long-term disadvantages of the remote learning experiences”. “Parents did their very best to engage children in schoolwork during this time, however the reality

was that children had to cope with many challenges,” Ms Brandner said. “Managing distractions, adapting to learning online, interrupted routines and lack of structured face to face learning experiences has impacted their cognitive abilities. “Whilst kids are resilient, it’s important for parents to be conscious of the warning signs that

their children are struggling cognitively, such as consistently losing focus, becoming very distracted and unable to sit still, or just generally not learning to the pace they used to be able to.” The Flordis research, which involved over 2000 Australians, found that one in three Australians believe various school routine changes will impact children’s learning,

as well as increase their social and general anxiety (23 per cent) and decrease their focus (22 per cent). A large majority (66 per cent) of parents said their children had spent too much time on screens during lockdown, and (23 per cent) were unhappy with online learning – which has reportedly led to more distractions and struggles to focus.

with Aaron Hill

Charting the Uncharted By AARON HILL UNCHARTED stars Tom Holland as young Nathan Drake and Mark Wahlberg as Victor Sullivan, set out to explore the world, d, finding the greatest treasure that has never been found while also tracking clues to find Nathan’s long-lost brother. As usual, most video game movies weren’t always good... unless when you’re counting Sonic and Mortal Kombat, I love those films, and I’m pumped up for Sonic the Hedgehog 2. However, with this film, I can see fans of the Uncharted games being entertained by it, or even video game fans like myself. This film wasn’t as bad as I thought it would be. Though, I have my gripes about it. While I like Tom Holland, maybe a little too much... Spider-Man....

INSANITY STREAK

THE SPATS

he llooked too young. I fe like they would felt c cast a much fitting actor, like Nathan Fillion. But then again, I still l like Tom Holland as an actor and as Spid Spider-Man. Overall, if you’re wanting epic Indiana Jones style adventure, or if you’re a fan of the Uncharted games, I recommend checking it out. It’s not the best video game film of all time, but it is a very entertaining video game film, and I’m giving this one a 7/10. *Aaron Hill is a local Dubbo film-buff.

was a great help getting me started with my photo prints, very much appreciated.

Thumbs Up to Dubbo Base Hospital kitchen, excellent meals, I was in there for 11 days and I could not complain about the meals, ﬂexible options if you didn’t like something or didn’t eat it.

' Thumbs Down to the people that charge excessive-

ly for their services for quotes on people with disabilities on NDIS and home packages.

Thumbs Up to all the lovely staff and to the head chef who makes delicious food at Reﬂections. Best restaurant and best steak in Dubbo.

Thumbs Up to Hot Poppyz Florist for handling everything so well on Valentine’s Day, great service.

Thumbs Up to Dubbo’s Mitre 10. Having been a keen gardener for many years and in that time visited many nurseries, I have never had such wonderful service as what I received from Hanlon at Petries’ Garden Centre. He was great.

Thumbs Up to all the local people supporting local businesses during these past two years of tough Covid times.

Military books targeted for charity PETER English spends much of his time helping to organise the city’s largest Book fair and he has some good news: The 2022 Rotary Club of Dubbo Macquarie Michael Egan Memorial Book Fair is on Saturday and Sunday, May 7 and 8 in the Centenary Pavilion at Dubbo Showground. The club has been receiving donations of books from the public throughout the last year, and is grateful for that support. "We cannot run our Book Fair without the wonderful support from the community and we have public collection running today (Thursday, February 24)." Donations of books can be dropped off in the car park outside the Meals on Wheels Dubbo office at 3/74 Mountbatten Drive between 9am and 4pm. This will be a Covid-safe drop off so please place your books in or on the various pallet configurations. There will be Rotary signage on Mountbatten Drive indicating where the drop off point is. "We didn’t hold the 2020 book fair which was devastating for our club but most importantly the beneficiaries of the proceeds, which are Dubbo RFDS Support Group and Cancer Research at Royal North Shore Hospital," Mr English said. "Both of those beneficiaries still went about their life saving work during Covid-19 and we felt that we had let them down by not being able to support them in their hugely important and vital work. "Our book fair in 2021 was almost the best we have ever had, so there was obviously some pent-up demand from the public for good quality books. That buoyed us from the fact that the public love the event and as a direct consequence, enthusiastically support the important work of the fair’s beneficiaries." Mr English said the club successfully ran the book fair last year in 2021 in a Covid-safe manner and are fortunate the venue is "big and airy so people can feel assured that we are being conscious of people’s safety"."

Peter English says the Rotary Club of Dubbo Macquarie Michael Egan Memorial Book Fair is a highlight of the year and he's calling on locals to donate books for the event. He said they always sell out of military related books and is hoping there'll be an inﬂux of that genre in the donations. PHOTO: DUBBO PHOTO NEWS/KEN SMITH

So what kind of donations is the club seeking? "It’s easier to say what we can’t take," he said. "Magazines, encyclopedias, study/ school/reference books and Readers Digests. "Unfortunately, there is only a very small market for those style of books and we don’t have the capacity to hold that genre. "Having said that we accept anything else that's in good order. "The genre we sell out of every year is militaria so if people have any war related books, we would gratefully accept any and all quantities of those style of books.

It would be "hugely helpful" if people can drop off their pre-loved books during today's collection day (Thursday) February 24 but if you can’t for whatever reason, please call Peter English on 0417 885088 so alternative arrangements can be made. Alternatively, donations will be accepted on Friday, May 6 at the Centenary Pavilion in the Showground complex between the hours of 9am to 2pm. "We would love to sell out all the books so we don’t have to pack up," said Mr English. "To help us do this we will

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.

GUESS HOW MUCH I LOVE YOU

CARIBÉ ON TOUR

JPY: 50 YEARS YOUNG ANNIVERSARY TOUR

“I love you right up to the moon – AND BACK”

Enthusiastic 9-piece Afro-Cuban Jazz music and dance ensemble bring a spectacular collision of memories and multiculturalism, set against original Latin jazz. This striking stage production with its steamy Caribbean rhythms will transport the audience straight to the heart of Cuba.

From ’70s pop icon to the ARIA Hall of Fame, John Paul Young has become the soundtrack for the Countdown generation and beyond. John tells and sings his own story from his beginnings as a Scottish immigrant to his legendary status in Aussie music folklore.

Join the enchanting adventure of Little and Big Nutbrown Hare as they discover the magic and colour of the seasons, in a dazzling new stage adaptation of Sam McBratney’s beloved children’s book Guess How Much I Love You.

Cyclist to represent IBCT team in cross-Europe race

“Ian O’Brien and Ben Austen smashed it!” By GEOFF MANN Photos by JO IVEY THAT was how everyone I bumped into at Wellington on Friday described the visit of both champions for the 100th Nat Barton Cup Swimming Carnival the previous weekend. “They were so generous with

their time. Nothing was a problem and the smiles on young and old were so good to see,” Wellington Swimming Club’s Pip Smith told me. “Ian had such an outstanding career and to think that both he and Ben first dived in here in our town. Mind you, Ian swam in a couple of different pools

before Ben came along but both agreed this new aquatic centre is one of the best they have seen.” Jo Ivey sent us through a stack of photos last week for Photo News and with her permission I thought we would share a few more to recapture the joy and the memories of that fabulous day.

By STEPH ALLEN DUBBO City Toyota has thrown its support behind one of our most impressive athlete exports putting the city on the map in international leagues. The business has supported local cyclist Haylee Fuller as part of its existing community support program. Fuller, 17, previously competed in the Under 23 National Championships last month, placing fifth in the Ballarat individual time trial on January 12. Up against some of the world’s best, Fuller finished 36th in the Buninyong, Victoria, road race on January 16 for the IBCT Women’s Elite team. Now, Fuller has jetted off to Belgium to compete in the IBCT women’s continental team across Europe. Following in her racing dad’s footsteps, Fuller started her cycling career at just seven years of age. “I’m very excited to make the next step up in my career and hopefully gain lots of experience to keep moving my way up to world tour,” she said. "I love the challenge of every race, as no two are the same, especially road races where the courses range vastly from mountains to plains and everything in between. “The European season has just started and will finish in October. I plan to be here the whole season and throughout that period I will do many different competitions

across Europe from UCI events to Belgium local races – so I will get a good mix of experience in different races.” Fuller has already impressed here at home, taking out wins in memorable athletic feats including winning the U19 Road Race and Criterium at the 2020 National Road Championships in Ballarat. At the 2020 National Track Titles, Fuller took out a close second, winning the Points Race after taking a lap on the field. “My best achievement so far is winning the U/19 road race and criterium at the national road championships in Ballarat 2020,” she said. “I also won the Points Race at the National track titles 2020 after I took a lap on the field.” Fuller recently completed a twoweek training camp in Spain where she was able to settle into the new team environment and meet the other girls and staff. “I’m very excited for the new opportunities that being in this team will offer,” she said. “Obviously coming from Australia that in itself is a lot to adjust to, so meeting new people and seeing new places while doing what I love (cycling) is something I’m really excited about. “Hopefully I can use this team as a stepping stone to the next level.” While this is her first time on the IBCT team, Fuller has previously raced for Australian National Road series team, the University of Sydney Staminade. Fuller’s first race is on March 1.

Dubbo hosts Sprintcar Club Championships By GEOFF MANN Photos by BRETT AND KAYLA WILLIAMS PHOTOGRAPHY SPRINT Cars returned to Dubbo for the 3rd Round of NSW Sprintcar Club Championship with over 100 cars across all categories. Club Secretary / Registrar Ian Boland says the high numbers represented clubs from right across the state. “The event attracted cars from all over NSW, which was not only great for our club but also for Dubbo as a whole given that many people stayed in town and spent time and money locally,” he said. A crowd of more than 1800 people was treated to a night of great racing with more than 30 events run in fine but warm conditions. “The Central West is home to the some of the very best racers in the state and nation and our drivers performed extremely well across all categories,” Ian said. In the main event, Round 3 of the Sprintcars, Sydney Ace Ian Madsen

took home the honours. “Madsen has returned to Australia after spending a number of seasons living and racing in America, competing in the World of Outlaws Series. It was terrific to see him battling it out with Jackson Delamont (Young) in second place and Micael Saller third.” Veteran Dubbo Racer Mark Blyton claimed victory in the wingless sprints, followed by Delamont and Troy Carey from Tullamore. “Earlier in the night, Gulargambone's Andrew Smith and Dubbo's Marshall Blyton claimed heat race wins while the Production feature race was won by Chris Blyton from Dubbo.” Sharing the podium spots around, Cullen Bullen's Jayden Healy was second behind Blyton and Danny Harrison third.” Junior Sedans – 1st Ryle Smith, 2nd Tyler Barnes, 3rd Jake Smith 4 Cylinders – 1st Stuart Bennett, 2nd Josh Goldie, 3rd Bek Giffen The next event is on Saturday 12th March – FB: DubboCitySpeedway2830

Dubbo wins Brewery Shield

Club Dubbo 2021 Annual Presentation Night

By GEOFF MANN

THE Dubbo Second XI is a step closer to being the Western Zone Plate after a hardfought win over Narromine on Sunday. Dubbo claimed the Macquarie Valley Brewery Shield and will now face the winner of the Bathurst – Mitchell Council Rod Hartas Cup winner – and a Lachlan Valley team in a few weeks. This will culminate with the Western Zone Plate decider on Sun March 6. Dubbo captain Chris Morton guided his young side to a match-winning 204 with a fine 70 sharing a 112 run partnership with Jacob Settree (36). Tom Masonwells

‘On the greens’ – a champ rolls again Contributed by ‘PISTOL PETE’ THIRTY-NINE humans climbed out of bed and rolled up at Sporties on Sunday morning. Sue O’Dea, Mel Giddings and Phil Knight v Gordon Lummis, Steve Kelly and Gordon Scott The former mentioned are a delightful group as well as ‘good sports’, taking 12 of the 16 ends with big smiles! Sue made her return to the Combo bowls and after six ends her team was already ahead by 12 shots. Gordon’s boys took a while to get going but a brilliant six shot end, and a final three made the score more respectable: 23 – 11. What a comeback for Sue! Gary Huggins and Rick See (finally rolling up) v Peter Bennison and Kevin Scott. In a low-scoring match 13 ends were decided by just one shot. “Keep the mat and you have a chance of winning” is the old mantra and Gary and Rick held onto it 11 times to come out victors by 14 shots to six.

Ron Morrison, Julie Brown and skip Col Cottee v Sue McAuley, Gaye ‘Go-girl’ Cottee and skip (?) whose name has been withheld! Col’s team was in a good space; the other was trying to find a space that felt good! No-one saw it coming, no-one expected the result that came from this scenario. Let me unfold the game end by end. Scores were 1, 1, 0, 5, 5, 3, 6, 4, 1, 1, 2, 3... adding up to 32 shots to one at end 12! Kinda ‘outa of this world’! Col, the Combo champ was back in form and led his team to a 32 – 7 – cruel, I know, but have to say – drubbing. Being always the philosopher, I’m of the opinion that ‘coming second is better than last’. Whew! Helen Emblem, Ross Pharo and Peter Sinclair v Chris Strojny, Cheryl Storch and Eric Satchell. This contest- er, confrontation – was played with mutual respect that resulted in eight ends apiece. At end 15 Peter and his cohorts tried to steal and grabbed a three-shot march but ‘Satch’ had other ideas and schemed with his

offsiders to construct a wonderful six shots on the final end. Bowlers might feel disappointment at times but they always praise good bowling and thus it was again – final score 16 shots to 13. Leo Balstrad, Ruby Stockings and Matt Quill v Ron McAuley, Pete Ruzans and Chris Cristante. A fairly even derby, eight-all at end 9. A killer end at 12 with a score of five gave Matt and crew a commanding advantage and Chris and his troops couldn’t claw them back. Leo, Ruby and Matt smiling with their 19 to 13 win. Paul Woodbridge, Dave Davis and Trish Gosper v Beryl Scott, Doc Livingston amd Graham Miller. 11 shots to two at end 5 by Graham and troops gave Trish and her charges a call to arms. They pulled it back with three at 11 only to be thwarted by a threeshot end against them. Graham, Beryl and Doc did enough for a 17- 12 win. Ian and Beryl Hobson became the second ‘happy couple’ of the day to line up against each oth-

er. One wonders what bribery and coercion was exchanged as they faced off across the mat! Allan Stratford played his first game as ‘Swinger’, teaming up with Neil Hayburn and Beryl Hobson as well as John Cole and Ian Hobson. At end 12 it was evenly poised with Beryl’s lot leading 10-9 but they must have driven their cart over a huge rock! The wheels fell off. Did they lose the plot? A sudden and glorious effort by Ian and John with the help of their swinging mate assembled a five shot end on 13 and that’s how it went: 17-10 to Allan, John and Ian.  Winners – Ron Morrison, Julie Brown and Col Cottee with 36 points;  Runners up – Sue O’Dea, Mel Giddings and Phil Knight with 24 points;  Resters (a rare breed) were Kevin Scott and Col Cottee;  Lucky numbers went to Leo, Doc and Ross;  Bowler of the Year – Col Cottee (13), leads Doc (12) and Al Stratford (11).

Dubbo racer eyes off Super2 series championship By STEPH ALLEN SINCE he was a young lad, Dubbo’s Tyler Everingham has been enamoured by cars. The 21-year-old supercar driver was first introduced to the world of racing by his father, and after a family friend introduced him to go-karts at the Dubbo track when he was 10 and he was quickly sold on a life in the fast lane. “It stuck from there...I haven’t stopped since,” he said. “I started going to state and national events in go karts and at 15 I jumped up into a new category, Formula 4. That was my first taste of a real race car. “I’ve gradually gone up in the ranks and ended up in Super2.” After watching “one of the biggest sports in Australia”, the Bathurst 1000 as a kid, Everingham had a goal of one day competing nationally. In 2017, he competed in the Australian Production Car Series. He followed this up in 2018 when he competed in the Bathurst 12-hour and the Kuhmo Tyre Australian V8 Touring Car National Series, where he was crowned the overall champion. “I won the state title... when I was fairly new into it in the junior category, and I’ve been in quite a few national events,” he said. “I’ve never won any but I’ve been close a couple of times... I’ve raced across Australia in go-karts and travelled across with my old man.” In 2019 he made his debut in the competitive Dunlop Super2 Series, and after an impressive first year he finished the season with an overall sixth place in the championship. In September, Everingham was also awarded one of Australia’s most prestigious honours in sport – The Mike Kable Young Gun Award at the 2019 Supercars Gala Dinner. After just a year of full-time

Ducks back from Nyngan for a splash DUBBO’S Veterans swimmers are a hardy bunch, diving into the RSL Indoor Pool on Sunday after a successful road trip to Nyngan. Once again the beaks were quacking as Ned Kelly – aka David Sparkes – stole another brace relay. “Today is the third week in a row that I have won the brace. Some want to swab me; others want to put their name down to swim with me next week, ha ha,” he tweeted! Ducks results 20 Feb  50m freestyle – Lilah Naden (1), Tom Gray (2), Norm Bahr (3). Lucas Salmon and Ron Everett both broke their times;  2x25m Breast relay – Nicole Johnstone/ David Sparkes (1), Josh Bird/Mark Prentice (2), Max Naden/ John Wherett (3), Greg Salmon/Ron Everett (4);  75m Ducks Medley – Lilah Naden (1), Mark Scullard (2), Peter Hargreaves (3), Nicole Johnstone (4), Tom Gray (5);  25m freestyle – Lucas Salmon (1), Jacob Pearce (2), Peter Hargreaves (3), Greg Salmon (4) and Max Naden (5).

racing, however, the emergence of the Covid-19 pandemic in 2020 put Everingham on the sidelines. “It was quite difficult... I pretty much sat out on the full season,” he said. “(However, in 2020), I got the opportunity to race in the (Supercheap Auto) Bathurst 1000 with Gary Rogers Motorsport as a wildcard. That was a pretty cool opportunity.” Last year, Everingham continued his rise to the top of the country’s supercar ranks, with race wins, round wins and track records. “This is my third full time year racing in the Super2. It’s good to get back into it,” he said. However, the first race of the season dealt Everingham with a

blow after a mechanical failure put him out of the first race of the Bathurst 500 event. The following day, he returned to the track, determined, and went on to claim the win. At the fourth event of the series at the Sydney Motorsport Park, Everingham started the race in fifth position and despite a challenge in the final stages of the race, he came away with another win. He now has his sights set on the 2022 Dunlop Super2 Series championship, with dreams of one day competing in the V8s. Round 1 of the Super2 will be in in Sydney from March 5-6, round two in Perth from April 30 to May 1, round three in Townsville from July 8-10, round four in Sandown from August 19-21, round five in

Bathurst from October 6-9, and round six in Newcastle at an unconfirmed date. “(I’ll be keeping an eye) on the guys at Triple Eight. They were quite quick last year,” Everingham said. “Broc Feeney graduated into the main game, and won last year’s championship. There will be some strong contenders.” For young starters wanting to pursue a career in supercars, Everingham has some words of advice. “They have some pretty good programs in go karts at the moment. Have a look into them,” he said. “Have a look at Karting Australia. Don’t give up – that’s the main thing.”
