Gig State scrapped for Dubbo?

AT this week’s budget estimates the NSW government was forced to admit its $100 million ‘gig state initiative’ had been reprioritised and would now focus on the most under-served regions.

Dubbo was in the mix for the The Gig State project which aims at improving internet service, speed and quality across rural and regional NSW to deliver a metro-level internet service to regional communities and businesses, with im-proved price, quality of service and speed as part of the Regional Digital Con-nectivity program.

The NSW Government said it has “updated” the focus of Gig State in response to significant investment from the telecommunications providers and the pri-vate market including in initial Gig State locations.

Industry once again pulling the strings when it comes to the investment of pub-lic monies.

Black dogs ride to rabbit trap

By JOHN RYAN

THE Dubbo Black Dog Ride One Dayer is happening on Sunday, March 20 and organiser Wayne Amor is keen to get that word out there.

It’s going to be a huge weekend for motorbikes in Dubbo – the One Dayer ride will be starting at the Westview Drive-In on one of its last operating weekends and it coincides with the Stone Memorial Ride weekend.

The Black Dog supporters will be heading to Albert with a community lunch provided by Tradies In Sight and others at the iconic Rabbit Trap Hotel.

“With this in mind, we intend to involve all of the local Mental Health Partners in the area to come and have a presence on the day, either at the start at the Westview Drive-In from 7-10am, or for lunch at the Rabbit Trap Hotel from noon for a couple of hours,” Mr Amor said.

“We’ve chosen the rural communities in recent years as our destination to try to inject some confidence, a few dollars and the feeling of not being forgotten back into these local communities that have been struggling with drought, loss of stock and all things that the prolonged dry weather has brought to the region and more recently flooding and Covid.

“We hope our visits give permission for those most affected by the current conditions, permission to talk about their situation with

friends, family or even a complete stranger during or after our visit.”

It’s not just the Dubbo riders making the trek – locals will be joined by the Tamworth One Dayer crew as well as the chance of the Condobolin One Dayer riders joining up.

The ride will start from the Westview Drive-In and head west on the Mitchell Highway to Narromine, then towards Tullamore and into Albert via the western

end of Dandaloo Road – that’s approximately 170km on the outbound leg and it will be a shorter 120km home via Dandaloo and Narromine back to Dubbo.

Meantime, on March 20 to coincide with the Black Dog One Dayer, Westview Drive-In is inviting owners of classic cars and bikes to display them on the morning before the riders head to the Rabbit Trap Hotel.

This is not a cars and coffee

event, just another opportunity to get those classic out of the shed so you can shine them up and arrive from 7am.

Entry fee will be a Gold Coin donation to the Black Dog ride.

Housing supply problem needs solution COUNCIL WATCH

By BROOKE JACOBSON DUBBO’S housing crisis is about more than land, bricks, and mortar – it’s a social and human issue that needs to be addressed.

That’s according to REINSW Dubbo branch president Bob Berry, following a recent meeting with local building representatives and councillors, as well as the Dubbo Regional Council CEO and directors.

“All the figures we have indicate that housing undersupply is a problem right across regional NSW and I commend the council for having the meeting, which shows an intent to address this issue,” Mr Berry said.

“The undersupply of

housing is about more than just land – this is a social and human issue, and there are existing tenants and people in Dubbo from a low socio-economic background that are at risk of homelessness.”

Mr Berry said one of the biggest issues was the lack of flexible choice when it came to housing in Dubbo.

“We’d like to see a number of changes, firstly with regards to dual occupancy,” he said.

“That is, people with an existing house, with space in the yard, put in a granny flat or a second dwelling – we feel that would suit a lot of people, as it’s an investment, you don’t have to go anywhere, and it reduces the amount of yard you have to care for.

“Secondly, we’d like council to consider a mo-

bile home park for workers, such as we see in other places for mining staff.”

He said another option for the city were boarding houses.

“One has just been approved and we can see a potential for more boarding houses – for example, people who come to Dubbo for work, they get a boarding house room and then after a while, they think ‘ok I like the job, I like the town, let’s look for somewhere to rent or buy’,” Mr Berry said.

“Also, and this may be controversial, but council could undertake ‘build to rent’ flats. And when people say, “oh council shouldn’t be in property development”, well, council has been the biggest developer in Dubbo in the past 50 years.

“Lastly, we need to see rezoning for medium density, particularly in parts of South Dubbo.

“There are a lot of older homes there that have probably past their use by date, you could knock them down and have three nice villas there.

“It’s actually very hard for people to downsize in Dubbo. If people can downsize to say a villa, then their old home goes on the market for a family.”

Mr Berry added Dubbo residents should expect to see more apartments in the city.

“Certainly, we are going to need more apartments in Dubbo – the development at number 1 Church Street has sold very well and there is another proposal for a mixed develop-

ment at the old Daily Liberal site,” he said.

“In the next five years we really hope to see more medium density housing – three- or four-unit developments.

“We’ve got to see more land released and we’ve got to see an increase in density, it’s as simple as that.”

Mr Berry said there was “no silver bullet” solution, but the meeting was the first step on the path to finding answers.

“If we can all work together, we will see results,” he said.

“There’s a lot of work to do, but I think the community can have some confidence that there’s light at the end of the tunnel.

“Let’s see this as an opportunity, and act accordingly.”

School’s out with teacher burn-out

By TIJANA BIRDJAN DUBBO teachers and educators gathered at the office of local member, Dugald Saunders, yesterday to support the teachers’ union’s efforts to improve teacher pay and workload conditions.

NSW Teachers Federation deputy president Henry Rajendra said there is an increase of pressure to deliver high quality education with teacher shortages.

“There is a school in this electorate that in one week had 50 classes that were not covered – which means the classes were split,” Mr Rajendra said.

“That not only affects those classes, but neighbouring classes as well.”

There are more than 55 vacant permanent teaching positions in the electorate of Dubbo since October last year.

NSW Teachers Federation has suspended all industrial action for the remainder of term one in hopes of the issue being fixed by the state government.

“This is an opportunity with the premier to sit down with the union and resolve the interests of our students, teachers and schools,” Mr Rajendra said.

Dubbo School of Distance Education teacher Emily Phimmachanh has been teaching at the school for over eight years and was initially attracted to the permanency of the position.

“If you’re a teacher you get incentive points which will help you move and transfer to different departments and schools, and the area of Dubbo does not have many points,” Mrs Phimmachanh said.

She said the Department of Education is having difficulty attracting people to rural and regional areas because of the outdated point system.

“This year we’ve noticed a larger significant impact due to Covid and teachers having to stay at home if they’re not well,” she said, pointing out teachers did not prioritise their own health as they knew they would not be covered for their unavailability.

From dream to reality for west’s new cancer centre

By JEN COWLEY AN emotional Mark Coulton put a deeply human face to the usual officialdom during the formal opening of the much-anticipated $35 million Western Cancer Centre (WCC) at the weekend.

The Member for Parkes spoke of his own late mother’s experience of the pain and indignity of being forced to seek treatment far from home for gallbladder cancer, his quavering voice an echo of the journey of so many patients and families over so many years across regional and remote NSW – people who will now have access to critical, state-of-the art cancer care nearer to their homes and loved ones.

Watched by representatives from the many community-based and volunteer organisations that worked tirelessly alongside Mr Coulton to bring the dream of a dedicated cancer centre to life, he told of first being approached in 2016, and of the fight to bring the life-changing project to fruition.

“When a delegation from the Rotary Club of Dubbo West, along with Doctors Honeyball and McClintock and Dr Joe Canalese came to see me to talk about the need for a cancer centre here, I knew exactly what they were talking about.”

Mr Coulton recalled “one of the proudest moments” of his parliamentary career – the presentation of more than 40,000 signatures to the house in support of the project, testament to the engagement of people from all across the region.

He spoke also of how vital a facility the WCC will be for the region’s Indigenous community, many of whom have previously foregone cancer treatment because they are reluctant to leave Country.

The WCC, which has been treating patients since September is a world-class medical facility, Mr Coulton said.

“Not only do we have the best technology, we have the best technicians – we have professionals from all over Australia who have come here to work in

Funding still a barrier for women’s business growth Sharing a moment during their official duties were NSW Minister for Regional Health Bronnie Taylor, Dubbo MP and Minister for Western NSW Dugald Saunders, Parkes MP Mark Coulton, Dr Colin McClintock, and Deputy Prime Minister Barnaby Joyce.

this centre with this equipment.

We have the Sydney University Medical School, and we’ll now be training oncologists from that school right here.”

With visible emotion, the Member for Parkes said he’d be happy for his epitaph to reflect his part in turning this dream into a reality.

Deputy Prime Minister Barnaby Joyce, who according to Mr Coulton “fought hard with the executive of government” to secure the initial funding for the WCC, made the trip to Dubbo to assist with the opening formalities.

“Everyone has a cancer story,” Mr Joyce said, sharing the experience of his brother’s death from bowel cancer that was diagnosed “too late” because treatment wasn’t sought early enough.

“For regional people, this is so much more evident – sometimes they have to see it to seek it.

“Here, they’ll be able to look out the window and see their land, their people, their country.

“They don’t want to be treated for cancer in Sydney. It’s not where they belong. They belong

here, and this (centre) allows them to be treated here.”

As the first ever Minister for Regional Health in NSW, Bronnie Taylor – once a palliative care and cancer nurse – said the official opening was about the community.

“It’s about you, and all you’ve done to make this possible,” she said to the assembled representatives from the medical fraternity and many community organisations and cancer support groups.

“And it’s about the men, women and children who will walk through those doors, who can be treated where they live, closer to home by the people that know them best,” she said, singling out Wellington man Tracey Brown, the first patient to be treated at the WCC. Member for Dubbo and Minister for Agriculture and Western NSW Dugald Saunders, told of his familiarity and involvement with the project through his “previous life” in regional media, commending all the community members who “lobbied hard” over many years for the investment.

“I’ve been part of the journey through a different perspective,” Mr Saunders said. “It’s been a whole-of-community driven project, and that’s why it’s worked so well.

“This centre is already making a monumental difference for patients and their families, who can now undergo life-saving treatment much closer to home.”

During the proceedings, Mr Coulton took the opportunity to publicly put the acid, albeit tongue-in-cheek, on his colleague and boss, the Deputy Prime Minister, with regard to not-for-profit accommodation provider Macquarie Homestay.

“We’re going to need 30 more beds there to take into account the extra traffic that will be coming to Dubbo for their cancer treatment,” he said, giving Mr Joyce the heads-up: “I’ll be coming to you soon for that funding for the next step for Macquarie Homestay.”

BUSINESS women in Dubbo and across the region will be disappointed to know their small businesses are still facing significant barriers for growth, according to new research conducted by the Australian Small Business and Family Enterprise Ombudsman’s (ASBFEO) office.

More than 600 regional, rural and metropolitan women-owned or women-led small businesses have identified access to capital as a central barrier to growth.

Ombudsman Bruce Billson said it’s disappointing that female entrepreneurs are still facing headwinds when trying to grow their business.

Mr Billson said 82 per cent of female founders in regional and metropolitan areas believe gender impacted their ability to raise venture capital funding.

“Just 10 per cent of female founders felt highly confident they would raise their next funding round, compared with 63 per cent of male founders,” Mr Billson said.

“By reducing headwinds and energising female enterprise there is a significant economic upside. Research by Asialink suggests boosting the number of female business owners to equal that of men, could add between $70b and $135b to our economy.”

Debate on lawn mowing growing

By BROOKE JACOBSON

DEBATE over who is responsible for mowing the city’s nature strips continues, with one South Dubbo resident fed up with dangerously long grass.

A South Dubbo resident contacted the Dubbo Photo News about a home where the grass on the front and side lawns was higher than 1.7 metres.

“Put it this way, I’m 1.7 metres tall and in some parts, the grass is taller than me,” the resident told the paper.

“It’s a safety concern – kids can’t walk on the footpath and you’ve got to be worried about snakes.

“And if you’re coming from a certain direction, you can’t see the traffic. If you’re driving, you’ve got to really poke your nose out into the intersection.

“Council says it’s not a traffic management problem.”

The resident said another house nearby also didn’t mow their lawns for “three or four months”.

“Council finally got onto them, but then it took the people another month to get the lawns done,” he said.

A council culture and community committee meeting in February proposed a policy to have residents responsible for mowing nature strips.

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 suita-

ble standard.

The proposal 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.

Uncertain times

DUBBO residents are in a better position than many others across the world as the nation looks to chart a path out of the two-year Covid pandemic.

While this region endured a wet harvest, the north coast has been smashed by floods, many coastal areas of the state still haven’t been rebuilt after the disas-trous bushfires and the cost of living has soared amid fears of a full-scale war sparked by Russia’s invasion of Ukraine.

The February 2022 CreditorWatch Business Risk Index (BRI) reveals that the Australian economy is still in a holding pattern as it emerges from the impacts of the Omicron variant.

Trade receivables reversed their recent decline in February, but it is too early to see the effects of the disastrous floods on the east coast in the data. This will undoubtedly begin suppressing the positive trade data from next month.

Terrabella B-Double bridge gains momentum A NARROW timber bridge with no safety rails – described as the most dangerous in the region by many locals – is well underway to being replaced.

Dubbo Photo News visited the worksite where the project is proceeding full steam ahead.

Almost $3m is being provided to Dubbo Regional Council to replace the Terrabella Bridge as part of the NSW Government’s Fixing Country Roads program and the federal government is kicking in another $700,000.

The new crossing of Little River, south of Geurie, aims to improve freight connectivity for local grain growers and graziers as well as improve safety for passenger vehicles and children travelling on school buses.

Our main photo shows where the footings and pylons have been placed into the bed and backs of the Little River, a major part of the foundational works in this bridge project. Also pictured (inset) is the current bridge which locals say is no longer fit for purpose.

Road funding promised $22.96 MILLION has been allocated for the Tooraweenah Road Upgrade as part of the Commonwealth’s Roads of Strategic Importance initiative and is set to deliver upgrades along approximately 56.8 kilometres of Tooraweenah Road within Coonamble Shire.

Parkes MP Mark Coulton said the Tooraweenah Road upgrade will involve widening the entire length of the road, sealing a 25.4-kilometre stretch and heavy patching and rehabilitation works on the remaining 31.4 kilometres of sealed road.

“I’m so pleased that the funds are now available so that work can get under-way on this important section of road,” Mr Coulton said.

“These upgrades will improve access, reduce travel times and increase safety for all road users, ensuring motorists get to their destination sooner and safer.”

Award surprises inspirational dementia advocate

By JEN COWLEY WHEN Lorraine Holland was announced as the 2022 Dubbo Electorate Woman of the Year, the only one in the assembled crowd who seemed surprised was Lorraine Holland.

Everyone else knew she was the perfect recipient of the honour, and that her courage and dedication in the face of heartache makes her a worthy ambassador for not only dementia awareness but for her entire community.

As Member for Dubbo Dugald Saunders worked his way through the list of attributes and achievements of the person on whom he was about to bestow the honour, light gradually dawned on Lorraine.

Her hands went to her mouth and she took a step backwards as if to shrink from the spotlight that had turned her way.

“I thought, no. No, not me. Not me!” she told Dubbo Photo News NSW Minister for Women, Regional Health and Mental Health, Bronnie Taylor, Dubbo MP Dugald Saunders and after the official ceremony, still Deputy Prime Minister Barnaby Joyce, with Dubbo Electorate Woman of the Year Lorraine Holland, her daughter Laura clutching her framed award.

Importantly, I was with, I thought, well, never illness – often referred to as “the

“I was in the garden the other day and I just felt as if he was standing right there. That often happens.”

The legacy her husband leaves, Lorraine says, is not just the garden and the dementia awareness campaign but more importantly to her personally, is the gift of confidence.

Although she may project an air of confidence, Lorraine says she’s uncomfortable “putting herself forward” but Alex’s belief in her was contagious.

“He helped me become the sort of person who believes she belongs in these sorts of spaces,” she says, looking down at the framed award.

For his part, Member for Dubbo Dugald Saunders is inspired by Lorraine, whom he said was a perfect fit for the title of 2022 Dubbo Electorate Woman of the Year.

“Lorraine’s advocacy, and commitment to Alexander’s legacy, is an inspiration to us all.”

See PAGE 34 for more photos from the community breakfast and award ceremony.

The date has been set for this year’s Holland Open Garden and Memory Makers Art Prize – the cocktail party and announcement of the art prize winners will be held on Saturday, October 15 and the open garden will take place the following day, Sunday, October 16.

Mass support by local business

IMAGINE Dubbo without the TITAN Macquarie Mud Run (TMMR).

Imagine not having that one day a year where refined and sophisticated adults are able to get down and dirty in the mud and pretend they’re five-year-olds, without the troubles that accompany being grown-up.

TMMR committee chairman Rod Fardell said this year’s event, on March 19, promises to be the best yet.

“Preparations have begun.

We’re sorting all the “mud mania” areas right now and last weekend we had a heap of volunteers to ensure the whole area was set up and right to go. It’s a big project and exciting times with new start and finish lines,” Mr Fardell told Dubbo Photo News.

“There’s more mud so I’m really excited about the area and the event, and (registration) numbers are good. It’s going to be a great community event again and we’re really looking forward to getting it back on the map after two years in the wilderness.”

He says the Covid pandemic has highlighted the need for local

communities to rely on local people, and is urging people to shop locally and support the local businesses that are then able to survive and thrive and, in turn, support the local community in many ways including sponsoring events such as the mud run.

He said without local business support, the mud run committee couldn’t stage the event and that would mean a host of riverbank infrastructure improvements created from the fundraising wouldn’t happen.

“The initial creation of the event was based around business support – while we had a great group of volunteers and a great committee, the integral part was with businesspeople like Wes Maas who helped us set up the event and there’s a thousand other sponsors that have been linked to the mud run as well,” he said.

“Some have supported us financially, making donations to get the event off the ground, but also to help us in-kind, and there’s so many of those people which has really made a massive difference.

“We’re here for the ninth year and that’s not by accident. We’re here because we have that local business support, our supporters

have belief in us and the event.

We’ve also had support from Dubbo Regional Council (DRC) and that’s been fantastic. We want to continue down that line, but we can’t thank our supporters enough.”

Mr Fardell said he wanted Dubbo residents to really stop and think about each and every purchase they made out of town or online. He says that at a very basic level, if you added up what local people spent out of town, just turning a per centage of that around and having it spent in the city could have profound positive impacts.

“There’s been a lot of talk, including in the Dubbo Photo News in relation to shopping locally.

We all know that small businesses need support, without which this thriving community of ours wouldn’t be doing so well. We need to protect that and increase support for local businesses.”

The TMMR committee is “100 mile per hour pumped” for the event, which Mr Fardell says is also supported by people who enter and the numbers are “absolutely fantastic at the moment”.

“We want people to be able to come out and have fun and know-

ing that this event allows us to have a seat at the table to design and create more recreational infrastructure and projects and we want to continue to grow in that aspect.”

TMMR vice president and sponsor coordinator Mark Thompson says it’s vital that local businesses sponsor these sorts of events so organisers can plan ahead, knowing their costs will at least be mostly covered and not have to risk it all on enough entrants buying tickets – a risk shown far more volatile during the global pandemic which saw many events cancelled for the first time ever.

“Without our local businesses, the event wouldn’t happen. They are very, very loyal to us – most of our sponsors have been there for nine years now,” Mr Thompson told Dubbo Photo News.

His family has been in business in Dubbo for decades and Mr Thompson says he saw while growing up just how crucial it was for businesses to give back.

“That’s how businesses should operate, they need the local community to survive and then they can return that favour into strengthening their own community.”

Flood impacts blood donations

DUBBO residents are urged to roll up their sleeve for blood donations as the impacts of the flooding and road closures in NSW resulted in a shortfall of 3,000 donations.

The Lismore Centre in NSW remains closed for an extended period due to flood damage.

Australian Red Cross Lifeblood’s executive director for donor services Cath Stone said that there has been a high number of donors’ ineligible to get to their appointments.

“In Sydney, where a fifth of the country’s blood supply is collected, hundreds of blood do-nors have been unable to donate, with many impacted by evacuation orders and disruptions to public transport,” she said.

Dubbo donors can help the victims impacted by the floods by donating blood to ensure pa-tients in the communities get the treatment they need.

Banking on combined operation as Westpac leaves the building

By STEPH ALLEN

RENOVATIONS are currently underway at Dubbo’s Macquarie Street St George branch – with co-location set to bring Westpac and St George into one branch site.

Last week, signage was erected at 123-125 Macquarie Street informing residents that a new “St George and Westpac shared branch” would be opening in March 2022.

The co-location comes after Westpac confirmed 11 months ago that its Dubbo branch would depart the landmark building on the corner of Macquarie and Church Streets where it had been situated since 1919.

“Work is well progressed, however there has been some impact to works from the pandemic and most recently the flood situation,” a Westpac spokesperson said.

Customers will be kept up to date in the interim, with the Westpac branch remaining available to assist St George and Westpac customers in Dubbo.

A spokesperson confirmed there would be no impact to staff or services for customers during the renovations.

YOUR STARS STARS 7

IN the midst of all the bad news circulating through, it’s always great to see the positives put well and truly out there.

When a fire ripped through some historic classrooms at South Dubbo

Public School just before the holidays started late last year, the school community rallied and refused to let that disaster define them.

Now things are humming along better than ever and principal

Sharon Murray was keen to thank everyone who helped.

"We would like to thank the Dubbo community for the generous donations and kind support after the fire at the end of 2021," she said.

"We greatly appreciate the efforts of the emergency services as well as all who donated resources in many forms. Thank you!

"We are getting back on our feet and look forward to 2022."

Pollies to the people DUBBO put her best foot forward weather wise at the weekend for the first of what local representatives of all three tiers of government hope will be a return to regular community catch-ups with constituents.

A cross section of newly minted Dubbo region councillors and CEO Murray Wood joined Mayor Mathew Dickerson, along with Federal Member for Parkes, Member for Dubbo Dugald Saunders and his state colleague Bronnie Taylor, who is Minister for Women, Regional Health and Mental Health.

In town for a whistlestop visit to help officiate at the opening of the new Western Cancer Centre, Deputy Prime Minister Barnaby Joyce joined the posse of pollies for breakfast and a meet-andgreet with locals.

From under the verandah of his giant Akubra, the prime-ministerial understudy chatted, pressed the flesh and mingled, reserving particular attention for the newly anointed Dubbo Electorate Woman of the Year, Lorraine Holland.

Mrs Holland was dumbstruck by the announcement, made by

Dugald Saunders – who these days also has responsibility as NSW Minister for Agriculture and Western NSW – and Bronnie Taylor in her capacity as Minister for Women.

Mayor Mathew Dickerson said he and his fellow representatives were keen to keep the breakfast ball rolling with regular events to give constituents the opportunity to raise issues with their elected

leaders.

“We are all here because the community elected us to represent them,” said Mayor Dickerson. “From a Council perspective, council isn’t about one person or one office, it’s about a great group of people who have come from all sections of the community to represent their community - as an elected body. As such, we’re united and committed to making sure

the community has access to, and can speak with, those they elected to represent them."

Plans for another breakfast in Dubbo are underway, and there will be a similar event held in Wellington in late April.

ARIES: You’ll find a solution to all your financial and emotional problems. At work, you might be promoted and/ or get a raise. This will make you very happy.

TAURUS: Your life feels a little out of control right now. You’ll go shopping for high-end clothes, and if you’re a foodie, you’ll go out to eat at nice restaurants.

You’ll take advantage of this time to refresh your wardrobe and give yourself a new look.

GEMINI: You’ll put your fears aside and go for it. You’ll feel creative, which will put you on the right track to create a masterpiece.

CANCER: You’re in high demand this week. Your friends and colleagues will want your attention. You’ll attract many new clients that want to do business with you.

LEO: After a long negotiation, there’s a chance you’ll finally get the green light from your bank to buy a property or finance a project you’ve been dreaming about. You must reassess or end some of your friendships.

VIRGO: You need to recharge your batteries and focus on what’s bothering you. Life is beautiful, and you owe it to yourself to reconnect with your inner child.

LIBRA: Adjusting your goals will allow you to reach your full potential. You’ll do everything you can to make your dreams come true. If you’re in a relationship, you and your significant other will reconnect on a romantic getaway.

SCORPIO: You’ll entertain the idea of getting married. At work, avoid becoming emotionally involved in negotiations. Doing so could lead to confusion.

SAGITTARIUS: You’ll sign up for a training course that opens new doors; abundance will soon follow. You must work on your relationship by breaking free from your everyday routine. Simply walking hand in hand with your partner could do the trick.

CAPRICORN: You’ll become a hero after saving someone from an unfortunate position, even if you only listened to them for a few moments. At work, you’ll lead a team.

AQUARIUS: You’ll hear about a birth in the family. You’ll find a home that meets your needs and budget. At work, don’t be scared of success. If you’re afraid to succeed, change your perspective.

PISCES: You’ll want to purchase a new vehicle. You may have to negotiate with people who don’t speak the same language as you. At the very least, you may have to act as an interpreter to decode a hidden message.

The luckiest signs this week: Cancer, Leo and Virgo.

Award acknowledges 25 years’ service

By TIJANA BIRDJAN AFTER a two-year hiatus of ceremony presentations, well known Dubbo local Elizabeth Allen OAM formally received the prestigious Max Gardner Award, bestowed by the Prostate Cancer Foundation of Australia (PCFA) for her distinguished services.

Member for Parkes Mark Coulton presented the award to Mrs Allen as well as a celebratory 25-year certificate to the Dubbo Prostate Cancer Support Group, for which she has volunteered for nearly 26 years. She is the third woman to receive the award.

Humbled by the acknowledgement, Mrs Allen believes women are affected by the diagnosis of prostate cancer as much as their partners.

When her husband John was diagnosed 27 years ago, “the urologist turned to me and said this is how you need to support him” she recalls.

“He really believed in the woman’s support and encouragement,” she says, acknowledging the importance of the support group as it is also a place for women to speak about their challenges through the diagnosis.

“The diagnosis involves the man because it is his body and his cancer and he has to cope with the suggested treatment options, but the woman has to cope with his suggested treatment options,

his moods, his bodily and behavioural changes, his anger and a possible loss of income.”

Mrs Allen travelled through rural and regional towns when she was involved with the ambassador’s program, and would encourage men to speak to one another.

She shared the difficulty men face breaking their stigma around health are encouraged to be spoken about, telling Dubbo Photo News an anecdote of when she was presenting at an event with a

man who shared his journey with the diagnoses and one of his friends asked if he could participate also.

“His friend told me that nobody in the room knew he had prostate cancer, but he felt inspired by the presentation.”

A strong advocate for the promotion of awareness, testing and keeping records, Mrs Allen advised people to “make sure you keep all your records as some doctors might suggest different things, especially if you’re

travelling around a lot.”

National Support Groups executive Jim Lloyd thanked Mrs Allen for establishing the group and promoting the importance of a conversation and asking people how they are.

He told Dubbo Photo News that opportunities to present awards are special as the volunteers are recognised for their effort, time and expense.

“There are 130 support groups for prostate cancer around Australia and they are all made up of volunteers and without them the word doesn’t get out and people aren’t supported as much as they should be,” he said, advocating the importance of speaking to people in similar circumstances who have been through treatment or are newly diagnosed.

“Men are hopeless talking about their health,” he laughed, adding that this is why women are heavily involved in the medical journey.

Mr Lloyd was himself diagnosed with prostate cancer at 48 and encourages people to visit their doctors for regular check-ups.

“Men in rural and regional areas receive the diagnosis at a later stage as they are busy farming and don’t have time to go,” he continued, saying the diagnosis typically scare men but it is safer to treat the cancer earlier than later.

Like cars, like father, like son

By JOHN RYAN AT the tender age of nine, Nate Irvin belies his tender years when helping his dad work on the family’s injected HK Premier.

Dubbo Photo News caught up with the budding mechanic at the last Classic Cars and Coffee in Victoria Park and he said the HK is a beast.

“These old cars just sound a lot better,” he said. “This car is old but it’s cool.”

Nate says spending time with his dad with their hands full of tools working on the car is a great thing.

“I like helping dad work on it and driving with dad to Cars and Coffee.”

His dad Carl is better known as Spud, a Minore local who has been a fan of cars since he wasn’t much older than Nate.

“Ever since I was 16 I’ve been I interested in cars. My first car was a HQ (Holden), I had an HQ Monaro until I was 26, a twodoor, and then I built a Torana, sold that and started building this – as we got more kids we sort of needed more doors,” Spud explained.

“It’s a 1968 HK Holden Premier with an injected LS (motor). We’ve been building it over the past five years “The missus nicknamed it Date Night because we only ever seem to use it on date nights,” he laughed.

Spud reckons the monthly meet at Victoria Park is one of the best days of the month.

“It’s just good to have an excuse to get the car out and it’s for a good cause so I’m always happy to donate to the Make a Wish Foundation,” he said.

“We just wander around looking at cars and having a few yarns, finding out what people are building, what they’ve got going on, that’s what it’s all about.”

Classic Cars and Coffee founder Owen De Carle is hoping for a massive turn out this Sunday, March 6 from 8am.

“It’s going to be a huge weekend with the Westview DriveIn showing The World’s Fastest Indian on Saturday night and plenty of people coming from out of town then staying for Classic Cars and Coffee on Sunday,” Mr De Carle said.

He believes the hunger for the

Three Dubbo women inspiring future rural leaders

AMEE Dennis, Georgia Campbell and Jemima Erskine have been selected to represent the Dubbo region in the 2022 NSW Rural Scholarship program which aims to connect and inspire future female leaders.

The three women share leadership traits, with Amee being an artist and agri-tourism pioneer whose Alpaca farm was recently recognised at the NSW Tourism Awards. Georgia is a rising star in agricultural banking and Jemima, who is a midwife, is exploring the impact of empowering rural women in the healthcare industry.

Member for Dubbo Dugald Saunders said the three women have gone beyond their respective fields and that the program will boost their leadership as they work to inspire the next generation of local leaders.

The one-year scholarship program will begin on March 7 at the Women Leadership Summit in Sydney.

New digs for Dubbo med students Carl 'Spud' Irvin loves driving the family Prem to Cars and Coffee with his young bloke, Nate, 9.

casual, social event where people can simply rock up in their ride if they have one, or check out the best selection of classic cars in Dubbo, has grown as people realise the social aspect is so profound after two years of lockdowns that took much of the joy out of life.

“Initially it was just the car guys but we get a lot of people from the general public now, more and more, just coming down to soak up the atmosphere and enjoy the day, look at the cars and just talk to people but there’s still probably a lot of people out there who don’t realise yet what it’s all about.

“Vic Park is just the best setting you could imagine. It’s such a great atmosphere here with the trees creating the shade and the breeze, and just having that avenue full of cars.”

DUBBO medical students will be excited to use their new facilities valued at $7m including a new teaching building completed with the latest medical education technology.

The new state-of-art facilities supported by the University of Sydney’s world-class Doctor of Medicine (MD) program enable Dubbo students to work collaboratively in an anatomy teaching lab, six-suite simulation training centre and common study space.

The students in the regional stream will benefit from the redevelopment utilising virtual reality headsets that provide an immersive 3D space where students can navigate realistic body structures and organs.

Senior lecturer and MD program year 1 coordinator Dr Annemiek Beverdam said both the staff and students are thrilled for the new facilities.

“The technology we are using is at the forefront of medical education and will give our students the best opportunity to learn in a modern purpose-built facility” Dr Beverdam said.

The redevelopments will be officially opened later this year.

A FAIR EXCHANGE

From self-doubt to self-belief

By JEN COWLEY

KATE Wade’s smile is quick and warm, her demeanour gentle and composed, her appearance impeccable.

There’s no hint of the self-doubt and lack of confidence she says she’s had to overcome in the twoand a-bit decades of working life that have brought her to what is clearly the perfect role for the born-and-bred local.

As manager of social impact organisation The Exchange in Dubbo, Kate is the perfect fit, and vice versa.

The nuts and bolts is that she’s essentially an overseer – looking after everything that goes on in the magnificent clocktower building that houses the organisation’s founding operation.

“We have co-working spaces, meeting rooms, private offices with permanent tenants, conference and events spaces and a community membership program – that’s where we bring community members together for “happy hours”, business brunches, master classes.”

That’s from the outside looking in she explains. But from the inside, the role is so much more.

“It’s about maintaining not only the building, but community relationships, team leadership.”

The Exchange was first established three years ago, two of which have been in the stunning and lovingly restored clocktower building in Dubbo’s main street, and Kate has been aboard for

Kate Wade, from The Exchange in Dubbo, says it’s an exciting time to be living and working in regional Australia.

every step.

“I’d been in my previous role for some years and was looking for a change – something to challenge and excite me a bit more.”

The Exchange, she says, ticked those boxes and more.

“This is like another one of my babies – it’s like my third child,” she laughs, explaining that her personality is that of “a connector” who brings people together.

“That’s the most important thing to me in this role – the

relationships.”

Kate agrees it’s an exciting time to be involved with an organisation like this when regional Australia is enjoying something of a renaissance with so many visionary people operating from rural and regional areas.

“I grew up here then spent nearly 10 years in Sydney. When I first left Dubbo, I told myself I was never coming back. I was happy to be going off to the big smoke.

“Then when I was married, we

decided Sydney wasn’t the place for us and we moved back here – that was 10 years ago, and even then, there wasn’t a huge amount of opportunity in the region.

“But I’ve seen this massive growth for regional NSW and for Dubbo especially. To be part of something like The Exchange from its inception to where we are now, and to be part of that trajectory of growth for the organisation is very exciting.”

There’s a great deal of satis-

faction to be drawn from helping to nurture regional businesses through The Exchange and for Kate, this is never more evident than when a fledgling “start-up” takes wing.

“It’s such a proud moment to see when someone comes in and they’re nervous and hesitant about starting a business, but they do and they come here and cowork, then progress to an office.”

The goal, she explains, is to help people through those first wobbly steps in business then watch them stride out the beautifully restored front doors of The Exchange into the “real world” to set up their operation in real estate somewhere in town.

“We always say The Exchange is a stepping stone. It’s a great place to start, build your business then graduate out of the building.”

For someone looking to make a mid-career shift into the social impact space – or any different space, in fact – Kate has some sage advice.

“Be confident. Believe in yourself.

“I’m 40 now and I didn’t always have that self-belief. I was a hair dresser for years. I’m not university qualified. Everything I’ve learned along the way has been to do with personality, relationships, being confident in your own ability – the more personal skills, rather than any specific qualifications or degree.

“Believe in yourself and have a go.”

A certificate to success

By TIJANA BIRDJAN

ESTABLISHED in January 2021, Wilay Cafe provides local Indigenous people with a culturally positive environment in which to develop employment related skills by gaining qualifications through traineeships and apprenticeships.

Regional Enterprise Development Institute and Western Student Connects have partnered to operate the cafe for students to build confidence and embark on a career in their selected industry.

Orana Education and Training Cooperative will provide a $10,000 sponsorship for the cafe to welcome new trainee, Monique Potts.

Monique commenced her traineeship just shy of six weeks ago and seeks to progress to a managing position in a year’s time.

“It’s a new experience and I’m learning lots of new things,” she shares, saying her role is frontof-house, specialising in barista work and sandwich making.

Monique is currently complet-

ing her TAFE course in CERT II in Hospitality where she learns an array of practical skills to assist her customer service skillset.

Before starting at the cafe, she worked at various other local food outlets, and mentions that these roles assisted her to adapt to a fast-paced environment.

“I used to make coffees and learnt how to use the headset at (a drive-through) and it has helped me a lot coming into this new job.”

Monique said coming into a new environment is challenging no matter of your experience “but I learn things quickly and am able to adapt,” she smiled, saying that her manager and team make the experience unique.

She shared that her passion for cooking stemmed from a young age through cooking a variety of meals at home for her parents.

Monique told Dubbo Photo News her motivator was her brother who encouraged her to pursue a career in the hospitality industry.

Graduating from Dubbo Col-

lege Senior Campus in 2021, she has completed AIN in Nursing and a Cert II in Industrial Technology, and is now in the process of completing her third certificate, so she’s tapping into multiple industries.

“I see myself doing a lot of things, and if I really like the cafe, I will want to open up my own one day,” she expressed, saying she would want a store with quality coffee and affordable lunches and nibbles.

Knowing how to construct wooden furniture including tables and cabinets from her trade certificate, Monique laughed saying she could furnish the vicinity herself.

“I made a table in the shape of a gaming controller for my brother then made a cabinet in the shape of a motorbike for my dad,” which she says was special as they all shared a passion in gaming and motorbike riding.

Monique is employed under a 12-month traineeship at the Wilay cafe and is looking to grow throughout the next year.

The naturo-path to organic healthcare

By TIJANA BIRDJAN SINCE establishing Healthboost two years ago, owner Gargi Ganguly dreams of opening a wellness centre in Dubbo with the influence of Eastern and Western natural medicine.

Gargi says the business sources natural local and Australian products which are organic and extract benefits of natural health through supplements, vitamins, lifestyle and beauty products, food and beverages.

“Alongside the need for general immunity, the biggest drivers are mental health and wellbeing,” she says, stressing a focus on identifying the deep issues that lead to being unwell, and helping people heal from the inside out.

“Healthy from the inside is healthy from the outside.”

Gargi’s interest in natural med-

icine stemmed from her childhood, with her father influencing her perception of natural medicine by providing care through Eastern methods.

“We stayed away from mainstream medicine as much as we could,” she says of her childhood, stating her father was a botanist and a scientist, so he was familiar in extracting beneficial ingredients from natural resources.

“I guess it was a part of our culture and our practice with homeopathy that gravitated us towards natural medicine,” she says, adding that that growing up around mountains and rivers contributed to the natural element of health.

Gargi expresses that bringing her knowledge into the region resonates with the Dubbo community as people are comfortable with natural medicine.

“People now are becoming more interested in looking after their health and are rediscovering old historical ways of taking care of themselves,” she continues, stating that the concept of “nose to tail” nourishment illustrates a resilience in health.

Gargi shares that there has been a stark growth in natural medicine with practices of eating beef organs and sourcing natural products becoming more common.

“It could be the uncertain times we are going through,” she adds, expressing that people are reevaluating their lifestyle and moving to an age of building their immune system.

Through the pandemic we’ve been told we need to boost our immunity and Gargi advocates safe and natural practices to enhance our immunity.

EMERGENCY REPORT NEWS OPINION AND ANALYSIS

by JOHN RYAN

Revenue raising pure and simple THE three regular readers of this Emergency Report (thanks mum and your two mates) would know I’m no fan of the state bureaucracy and in particular, Transport for NSW, the artist formerly known as RTA. I dislike the confusion surrounding so many of the decisions that come out of this agency and I really get annoyed at what I see as the arrogance of the culture in the organisation.

It’s interesting to see I’m not alone.

Here’s a Letter to the Editor we received this week from Dubbo man Doug Smith: “Last week I was done for speeding through Tomingley – at 57 kilometres per hour in a 50 kilometre per hour zone.

While I do not contest that I

was over the limit, I would like to ask the road safety boffins in the Roads and Maritime Services (RMS) how can they justify a 50 kilometre per hour speed limit in Tomingley whereas Cobra Street in Dubbo, with far more traffic and development, is regarded safe at 60.”

I sent a request to state MP Dugald Saunders asking him to ask the transport department about this apparent inconsistency – here are the questions: Would you mind seeking justification from the RMS regarding the 50k speed limit in Tomingley and how they reconcile that with the fact that the Cobra Street speed limit (obviously safe in their eyes) is 60, despite there being far more traffic and development in Cobra Street?

How many hours per week does the RMS task a speed camera car to be sitting in or near the Tomingley 50km zone?

As the local MP, do you believe there’s a disconnect between the 50km speed limit in Tomingley,

By TIJANA BIRDJAN ORANA Mid-Western Police District commander acting superintendent Mark Fehon has proudly introduced four new recruits into the Dubbo community.

On Monday the four Probationary Constables had their induction day with each starting their shifts during the week.

Constable Nicholas Jol said he was very excited to commence his career at the Orana Mid-Western District with his first shift beginning on Thursday.

“We’ve all worked really hard to get here and we understand that there is a lot more to learn,” he continued, saying that he is proud of his achievements over the past 10 months.

Constable Ella Scarce shared her excitement to be selected to

work in Dubbo as she wanted to work in the town from the initial day she began training.

“I’m looking forward to working in a community and an environment where I feel respected,” she shared, adding that she believes she would gain more knowledge working in a regional town than in a metropolitan city.

“I wouldn’t have known anyone so it would have been a really foreign environment whereas here the community can help each other so I’m excited to get out there,” she said.

Constable Ryan O’Connor has been born and raised in Dubbo and is looking forward to being in the community once again.

Being involved in junior sport, he said it is a good feeling to say thanks to a much greater scale.

The Dubbo Photo News column dedicated to the hard work of our emergency services personnel. which carries through traffic on the Newell Highway, and 60k speed limit in Cobra Street which is not only one of Dubbo’s busiest arterial roads, but which is also the Mitchell Highway?

Do you believe we need a broad audit of local speed limits to potentially take out any anomalies?

Are you in favour of the current expanded regime of speed camera cars?

Here’s the response from Transport for NSW:

• SPEED LIMITS:

Twisting on the roof

TRANSPORT for NSW is continually carrying out reviews of speed limits and will review a speed limit if it is believed it to be unsafe.

Speeding is the biggest contributor to fatalities on our roads.

While most people associate speed-related death or injuries with high speeds, the truth is that around two-thirds of speeding drivers or riders involved in fatal and serious injury crashes over the past five years were travelling at less than 10 km/h over the speed limit.

We want people to stop putting themselves and others at risk.

The default urban speed limit in NSW was set at 50 km/h about two decades ago.

While much of the Dubbo urban network is signposted at 50 km/h, at that time Dubbo City Council (now Dubbo Regional Council) successfully petitioned the RTA (now Transport for NSW) to retain the 60 km/h limit on portions of the urban network.

The 50 km/h speed limit at Tomingley is consistent with other highway towns with undivided single travel lanes in each direction. Other examples include Peak Hill, Parkes, Forbes, Coonabarabran and Narrabri.

Community members are encouraged to submit their suggestions via the NSW Safer Roads website www.saferroadsnsw.com. au/haveyoursay.aspx.

Transport for NSW also conducts speed zone reviews within a town centre when requested to do so by the local council.

SES training doesn’t sound like it would be much fun, but that’s not necessarily the case as evidenced by these Dubbo SES volunteers who played Twister on the training roof. The goal was for the squad’s newer members to learn to trust the safety gear. Dubbo Photo News has been told the squad members found themselves in some questionable positions - and with that came the trust. PHOTO: SUPPLIED

Road to Sydney blocked.

AT least, I suppose, you can travel at 50km going through Tomingley – that certainly wasn’t the case on the great Western Highway at Mount Victoria a few days back.

The eastbound lane in a section of the highway near Fairy Bower Road is closed due to instability caused by the recent heavy rainfall and while the highway remains open, there’s traffic control on the westbound lane.

What a shame, when all those billions were being spent on the Pacific Highway, we weren’t considered important enough to get a decent and secure road link coming through the Sandstone Curtain.

Apparently permanent repairs will be carried out over the coming weeks and the eastbound lane will remain closed with stop/slow traffic conditions and a lowered speed limit of 40km in place.

Flood help HOW devastating are these floods?

There’s just so much heartbreak out there for families who’ve lost

loved ones, and others who have lost all their possessions.

And thanks to all the local emergency services personnel from this area who have gone to help those hard hit communities closer to the coast.

I really hope we can learn from this, although as a nation we never seem to.

If we put greed and expediency aside and utilised some common sense strategies we really could mitigate these sorts of disasters which seem to be occurring ever more frequently and on a rapidly escalating scale

This means that the number of enforcement hours at any location varies from month to month and there will be differences in the numbers of drivers detected speeding.

This is consistent with an anywhere, anytime approach to enforcement that is unpredictable.

Unpredictability is important to deterring speeding.

Councils permitted one-off rate variations

War Zone

NSW

COUNCILS across the state – including Dubbo Regional Council – have been struggling after drought, floods, bushfires and the Covid pandemic. So they were furious when IPART late last year handed down a historic low 0.7 per cent baseline rate peg, despite surging inflation, soaring fuel and other commodity prices, and a mandated wage rise for staff.

Now there’s a reprieve in sight – for councils, not ratepayers – after Local Government Minister Wendy Tuckerman this week cleared the way for a special one-off rate variation for planned infrastructure and community services.

By JOHN RYAN AS a local firefighter Ryan Mackintosh has seen plenty of things most civilians are spared from but he said nothing in his emergency services career could have prepared him for the devastation in Lismore after floodwaters ripped through the Northern River’s regional city.

He joined a crew of local Fire and Rescue firies who headed up north in a Gilgandra tanker along with a Mudgee Hazmat vehicle and a tanker from Orange to provide assistance to residents in the hard-hit area.

“We did the first few days in Lismore assisting with gutting motels to give them a head start in getting them back to habitable conditions so they can move displaced persons into them for long term housing whilst they repair their homes or find alternate long-term housing,” Ryan told Dubbo Photo News.

“We then went to Woodburn

as the water had just receded and we’re the first in to carry out rapid damage assessments – we found extreme devastation and were searching houses for persons and gaining all-clears.”

The local crews tagged the locations with details on what they found and uploaded them into

the Geographic Information System Mapping (GIS) the SES is using which is reviewed and help is then deployed to the most urgent priorities.

“We found a tremendous amount of dead cows from many of the dairies in the area that were inside and under houses and even

on roofs and in trees,” he said.

“It was a warzone-like scene with the power of the water revealing astonishing sights.

“The whole community has been basically wiped off the map and there was an utter sense of hopelessness and uncertainty.”

Lismore residents were buoyed by the appearance of firefighters from the Central West who rolled up to help them begin the heart-breaking Ryan Mackintosh and Heath Smith (Dubbo) joined with Gilgandra firefighters Lindsay task of rebuilding their city.

IT’S A RECORD! Shane Warne, who sadly passed away last week aged 52, is widely regarded as the greatest spin bowler of all time and broke a number of Guinness World Records titles during his career, many of which still stand today. These include Most wickets taken by a bowler against one team in Test cricket – in 36 matches between 1993 and 2007, Warne took 195 Test wickets against England. The spinner’s 10,757 balls in matches involving the Ashes rivals included 11 five-fors, four 10-wicket matches and the delivery widely dubbed as the “Ball of the Century” on June 4, 1993, when his first delivery of his first Ashes Test bowled Mike Gatting after it turned extravagantly off the pitch at Old Trafford, Manchester, UK.

Clubbing together to survive

By JOHN RYAN

IT’S been a pretty tough two years all ‘round according to Wellington Soldiers Club secretary manager David French.

For anyone involved in clubs, where locals traditionally gather to catch up, have a meal and generally socialise, he told Dubbo Photo News that the Covid uncertainty has been way outside anyone’s experience.

“It’s been difficult. It’s been mentally straining probably more than anything and not only for all staff but members and the patrons and the board of the club,” Mr French said.

“We must acknowledge the government for the assistance it gave us with the Job Keeper and then the grants and the back payment of certain taxes we were able to forgo, they helped us in a number of ways.

“We were calling our staff in and having regular updates with them and we kept them on doing little things around the club here. We kept their income coming in and I know a lot of the staff were very appreciative of that but it has been harsh, with what we’ve had to do to get through the pandemic. It was hard on them and our patrons and we feel for them, especially the elderly and those with medical conditions.”

Now restrictions are easing and the Omicron strain appears to be less severe than previous strains, he said the club, along with other venues and organisations, is encouraging people to come out and start living their lives again, while taking all necessary precautions.

“We’ve still maintained our sanitising stations and all those sorts of things around the club. We still encourage people to give everyone their social distance – I think that’s a big thing going forward,” he said.

“We encourage people to use the Dine and Discover vouchers. I know there’s lots and lots of them out there and if people feel like they want to spend them here at the Wellington Soldiers Club, in our dining room accepts them and they’ve been a great help to us.

“We’re trying to keep things as

normal as we can as we go back to what we were prior to Covid.

We’ve got entertainment starting back now on the Saturday nights, our promotions are going, our raffles are back in, they’re not online anymore.”

He said these are all activities that people took for granted. Now, he says, they treat what was and ordinary day or night out as something really special.

“One of the big things, and people are coming in with big smiles on their faces, is the Bingo players. They love it and they couldn’t wait to get back up those stairs,” he said.

“People are enjoying being able to enjoy the club facilities again but they’re still cautious and I understand that caution but I think in time we’ll get back to normality and we’ll look back on these times and think, well, we got through them.”

He said it’s been an incredibly difficult time at the senior management level, right across the club sector, because managers have been aware that the decisions being made had to contain at least some element of guesswork or gut feeling because of circumstances no-one had ever seen, with a huge lack of solid information and a real uncertainty, leading to extreme stress with so much riding on those decisions.

“A lot of it was the mental stress: Where were we heading with all this? Do we have the resources to get through this? Does it close our business down the track? Are we doing the right thing? It gets mentally straining,” Mr French said.

“It’s been a very trying time but it’s certainly brought everyone involved with the club closer together. They’ve all seen how we handled it and everyone knows we were all working with the best interests of the club at heart.

“We’re hoping all the sporting clubs we support, like the rugby league, the junior rugby league, the swimming clubs, the Little Athletics, all those organisations and sporting bodies around Wellington that we can help them all get back in to doing what they do best.”

Wellington Soldiers Club secretary manager David French said everyone involved with the organisation is breathing a sigh of relief that things are finally looking like getting close to normal. PHOTO: DUBBO PHOTO NEWS

They cooked up a storm

By JOHN RYAN

IF you’re a local and TJ’s Catering hasn’t served you up a good feed, it’s almost certain they have for at least some of your family and friends.

Now owners Terry and Julie Long have both been hit by serious illness and while that health downturn means they can no longer cater to the city’s residents in style, they’re hopeful of finding someone who can take the business on so the option of great mobile tucker isn’t lost to Dubbo.

TJ’s initially kicked off in 1995 and Julie says it was a pretty tough and uncertain time.

Despite both Julie and Terry being chefs, they did a course through the Business Enterprise Centre (BEC).

“Dubbo was in seriously drought, a great year to start a business, as there were not many jobs available at the time,” she told Dubbo Photo News, noting there was only one catering business in town at the time.

“We attended a function, and thought “Oh we can do this and better”, so after doing a business plan up we went to banks and we got knocked back, so Terry’s mother (the S of TJ’s – Shirley) lent us then money to start it off.

“I helped designed the spits and we had a friend do them up for us, as they are custom made.

Then came the gas man to do the rest, and a trailer to load them on, again custom made, and then all other equipment we had to buy.”

It was a steep learning curve, despite the couple’s cooking and catering skills.

At one of their first events, a birthday party, Julie received some sound advice when a lady came up to compliment her on the meal and service, which she said was “perfection”.

“She said to go and get real cutlery and don’t use plastic and I said “point taken” and we did.

“It’s important to listen to customers as they are your bread and butter. We trained our staff to give

TJ’s Catering fed brekky, lunch and tea to hundreds of competitors from 13 countries at the Quarter Horse World Youth Cup in Dubbo in 2004 over a two-week period and were awarded a medallion for their efforts.

great, friendly service and we always had uniforms for them.

“We had remarkable feedback form all clients big or small. I told my staff to chat to guests, to make them feel welcome. We trained five chefs over the years and two become head chefs, one in England – we’re pretty proud of that.”

Some of the city’s most significant dinners have been catered for by TJ’s including birthdays, engagements, weddings, sales and shows, formal dinners, reunions and Christmas parties.

Julie remembers plenty of major functions and events where the pressure, and spotlight, was really on their business.

“The Quarter-horse Youth World Cup was a first for Dubbo and we fed (people from) 13 different countries over two weeks with more than 300 guests in 2004 at the show ground, breakfast lunch and dinner, plus we had a takeaway operating for guests who’d

come to watch,” she said.

“It was a huge job but at the end, we received a bronze medal – we even did a different meal each day for each different country, to make them feel like home.”

All appeared to be going well until Terry started to suffer severe back pain around 2013 which the couple initially brushed off as his sciatic nerve playing up.

In 2015 he went to the dentist to get his teeth done and they discovered he had tumours along his jawbone, so he was sent for CT scans and bone marrow tests and the results weren’t good – he was diagnosed with Multiple Myeloma, a rare cancer that attacks the bone marrow and bones.

“He was told he had only two weeks to live so was rushed to Royal Prince Alfred Hospital in Camperdown,” Julie said.

“Professor Larson took over and Terry is now in his sixth year of treatment but unfortunately it be-

“He’s on trial drugs from the USA and our fingers are crossed but things are not looking good for him. This is his last option. What he is going though is very strong pain and his lifestyle is barely non-existent due to the pain.”

Compounding the couple’s distress Julie also became sick in 2018.

She was at a wedding and not feeling well when she began to cough and couldn’t stop.

She immediately gave up smoking and when her throat was still hurting a week later she went to see her doctor.

It was a bombshell the couple didn’t need when a CT scan showed she had cancer of the throat.

“It settled nicely in my voice box – all the inquires I answered and clients I made friends with were all about to disappear and I miss talking to my grandkids, they don’t understand my electronic

voice,” she said.

While their head chef and daughter took over as much as they could to cope with the influx of Christmas bookings, the couple decided they had no choice but to shut up shop as so much of the business rested on them.

“It was hard for all of us. We are very proud on our achievements with TJ’s over the years, so now it’s time to hand the banner over to someone who’s a chef or cook,” she said, noting they’ve put the business and all their cooking and catering gear up for sale as a job lot.

International balloon challenge returns to central west

Golden anniversary for golden guitars: book tells story of iconic festival

By STEPH ALLEN AN ICONIC piece of Tamworth Country Music Festival history is now available – the Stars, Hurrahs and Golden Guitars (SHAGG) 2nd edition.

The book was originally published in 2012 for the 40th anniversary of the festival.

This year’s version, updated in time for the 50th anniversary, is an expanded version, detailing the history of the popular

country music event.

The book’s author and festival founder Max Ellis says it was important for the first version to be updated for the 50th anniversary.

“Five decades is a significant milestone and so much has happened since 2012,” Mr Ellis said.

“We wanted to ensure every colourful part of the festival’s 50 years was included in this iconic Australian story and immortalised in a book for years

to come.”

Teaming up with the editor of Tamworth Country Music Capital News, Cheryl Brown, Mr Ellis spent many months writing, updating and editing content for the second version.

Festival Manager Barry Harley said the endeavour took time to search through Mr Ellis’ and the Tamworth’s country music archives.

“SHAGG’s second edition is the best and most entertaining of all publications

produced about the festival,” Mr Harley said.

“This fascinating story details the growth of one of the world’s largest music festivals and includes many rare and previously unseen photos and images.

“SHAGG’s second edition is truly an iconic piece of Festival history and I urge every Tamworthian and country music fan to get a copy.”

The book is available through various websites – search its title.

THE skies of Canowindra will be a spectacle next month with colourful, floating balloons to float across the horizon in an international feast for the eyes.

The Canowindra International Balloon Challenge will return to the central west from April 2-10, and is dubbed as one of the biggest hot air balloon events in the southern hemisphere.

Hot air balloons will rise at either end of the day, flying at sunrise and in the last hour before sunset over the nine-day event.

A signature event is the Cabonne Community Glow and night markets, where attendees will be able to enjoy local produce, wine, crafts and entertainment.

The night will end in a festive Glow, with balloons lighting up in synchronisation to music.

Other popular attractions will include wineries and local food producers across the villages and town, as well as the Age of Fishes Museum, where guests can enjoy a walk down the historic main street, art galleries, wonderful coffee, cellar doors and shopping.

A fan favourite will return

this year – Balloony McBalloonface, the beaming yellow balloon which is owned and operated by the Sydney-based Robertson Family (Team Robbo).

Pilot Andrew has competed at Australian National Championships since 1996 (except for 2001), and has represented Australia at the World Championships in 2006, 2012 and 2018.

Camping will be available at Canowindra Show Ground at 200 Rodd Street, right across from the main launch site.

Bookings are essential via Supagas Canowindra International Challenge Website Camping Bookings page.

The event is organised by Canowindra Challenge Incorporated (CCI) and was created in 2010.

The challenge has been awarded Bronze Awards in the 2018 NSW Tourism Awards and the 2017 NSW Tourism Awards, and Silver Awards in the 2018 Regional Tourism Awards and the 2016 Regional Tourism Awards.

The event welcomes over 5000 visitors to the region each year, generating an economic boost to Canowindra and surrounds.

LETTERS & FEEDBACK

OPINION & ANALYSIS

THE TOONS’ VIEWS

Revenue raising pure and simple The Editor, Last week I was done for speeding through Tomingley – 57 kilometres per hour in a 50 kilometre per hour zone.

Whilst I do not contest that I was over the limit, I would like to ask the road safety boffins in the Roads and Maritime Services (RMS) how can they justify a 50 kilometre per hour speed limit in Tomingley whereas Cobra Street in Dubbo, with far more traffic and development, is regarded safe at 60.

Doug Smith, Dubbo Editor’s note: see this week’s Emergency Report for a story on this issue.

Money not well spent The Editor, Right now our schools, hospitals and aged care facilities need as much funding and support as possible.

This is why we feel really shocked to learn that $9.7 million of taxpayers’ money will be spent on yet another study into the Gin Gin Weir.

We all know by now that the new Gin Gin dam as proposed would have a disastrous impact on the Macquarie Marshes and the Darling Baaka River, which has served this area so well for many centuries.

A local politician stated on Facebook that the proposed dam would give some water users an extra 17 billion litres a year, but he failed to say the obvious – that there would then be 17 billion litres less water for the environment, towns, and water users downstream. We know just how precious water is, to all.

At a time of higher temperatures, erratic rainfall and disturbed weather patterns, our communities need a government with wise and supportive policies. In my opinion, taking on the cause for eight or nine growers of an annual crop demanding high water use at the expense of all else is not

Paul Tierney ❚ OPINION “THERE’S always a catch”, they say. Well, maybe not.

Unless you’ve been under a rock during COVID times (understandable, yes), then you’ll have heard, or have immersed yourself in, the latest craze sweeping the globe.

No, not Tik Tok, not yo-yos, or hula hoops, or even a fad diet. It’s an internet game called Wordle. Fun, very addictive, educational, and most importantly, free.

Yeah, I know, you don’t believe it. Nothing is free, you say, there’s always a catch. There’ll be pop-up ads whilst you’re playing, that you can ‘get rid of’ by paying a buck or two (then they’ve got your details). Nope, it appears that’s not the case.

Well, you’ll have to sign up, give them your email address, and then you’re bombarded with stuff through your feed. Or, worse, your details become an open gateway to scammers and losing your life savings.

Negatory, I’m pretty sure. NO sign-up. NO email or phone number, NO credit card needed.

A bit of reading has told me the

fair and equitable in the eyes of the voting public.

Appropriate funding across the board is what governments need to implement. This will ensure that the many needs of humans and the plants and animals in our natural environment remain happily in balance. This is a win for all.

Di Clifford Healthy Rivers Dubbo Committee

Thanks for helping fireworks go off with a bang The Editor We are happy to report the 2021 Dubbo New Year’s Eve fireworks was a success considering the uncertainty of Covid-19 in our community.

Roger, Gail and the Fletcher family from Fletcher International Exports Pty Ltd again supported this event by providing the fireworks on the night.

We had approximately 3000 people attend the display, with $4000 raised through the gate takings. This has now been distributed throughout the voluntary organisations that assisted on the night.

The committee would like to thank Dubbo Photo News for the support provided in advertising the event.

We hope to have your support on December 31, 2022, when the Dubbo Show Society will again be hosting the fireworks. It has been decided that this year’s even will start at the later time with the gates opening at 5.30pm.

Sue Hood, Secretary, Dubbo Show Society Inc.

For our records, please include your name and contact details, including a daytime phone number. The writer’s name, title and/or town will be included unless specifically requested otherwise.

Something for nothing? Really? guy who invented this game did it out of pure love for his partner. Just for her. She got right into word games during pandemic times, so he made her a special one. Then, she loved it so much, she showed her friends, then they showed others.

So, he went public with it last October. Boom, viral. From 90 players a day in November to maybe three million or so at the start of February, but if you know how ‘exponential’ works, I’m thinking waaay more now.

His name is Josh Wardle (that’s why it’s called ‘Wordle’, nice), and as I said, he did it for love, not money. I’m sure his skills in this area see him making a handsome quid anyway, but there appears to be no cost to us at all. No cost, bar the stress and competition of solving the puzzle each day.

For those who don’t know the ` game, just google ‘Wordle’ (it’s A sidelight to this great not an app, remember) and you’ll story is the guy who owns get it, or go to the website ‘Power the rights to a different Language’. five-year-old internet There’s a new five-letter word to App called “Wordle!” guess each day, and you’ve got six chances to solve. You have to just that nobody had shown interest in... a guess a first word – for example, a good first guess might be ‘raise’ – it

has three vowels and two popular consonants. Each letter you’ve got in the right position will go green, and each other letter that’s correct, but in the wrong spot, will go yellow. Else, they go grey.

Once you’ve guessed it, it’ll let you share your victory with others by showing them a shell of your progress, without revealing the words. Very clever.

A sidelight to this great story is

the guy who owns the rights to a different five-year-old internet App called “Wordle!” that nobody had shown interest in. His name is Steve, and he accidentally made a motza, as people searched for the new Wordle game via the App stores, and then paid a buck or two to download this old thing, before realising it wasn’t what they wanted (this old thing had ads and addons that you would pay for).

So, he got together with Josh, and they invested all the money in making an online program called Boost, which is an after-school tutoring and mentoring program. It’s been very successful in helping lots of kids so far, and the rest they say, is history.

So, yes, believe it or not, some things ARE free, and there ARE some good guys left in the world.

But... free? Well, my wife smugly takes it out of my hide each day she manages to solve it in less turns than me, so I’m suggesting you take it seriously each time you play.

Apologies if you end up hooked after reading all this. Don’t try ‘wince’, ‘knoll’, ‘perky’ or ‘shard’, they’ve already featured. Have fun.

The Batman

By AARON HILL THE Batman stars Robert Pattinson as Bruce Wayne, who becomes the Batman in the nightt when the criminal who calls himself The he Riddler leaves cryptic clues around the city. Batman also tag teams with Selina Kyle, the burglar known as Catwoman, to track down the secrets about the mob boss Carmine Falcone and The Penguin.

From the moment they announced that Robert Pattinson was cast as Bruce Wayne, I was sceptical about it, and I was ready to hate it ever since he starred in the Twilight movies... and boy, was I wrong.

This film was better than I thought it would be. This is not only the best DC film I’ve seen, but also the best Batman film ever since The Dark Knight was made. Also, I forgot to mention, this is the longest Batman film to date,

INSANITY STREAK

THE SPATS

as the runtime of this film fi is three hours long. l I love the grimy and dark aspects of Gotham City, and it’s it everything I want in a Batman movie. I love Gothic vibes, and this has it.

Robert Pattinson is fantastic as Batman, I love the lurking in the darkness, and I love that they finally made Batman the best detective in live action.

The Riddler was the most terrifying villain, the way he plants these clues and riddles around the city really kept me in suspense. And while we’re talking about villains, Colin Farrell is very unnoticeable as The Penguin, he looks like a very different person.

In conclusion, this is the best Batman version I’ve seen in a long time. I think the fans will have a great time, and I’m giving this one a 10/10. *Aaron Hill is a local Dubbo film-buff.

THE THUMBS

& Thumbs Up to much of the world for slapping all the eco-

nomic sanctions on Russia and its oligarchs. What a shame we as humans don’t do this when countries we’re allied with, or ourselves, engage in unjust invasions and occupations under the ‘freedom’ banner. We really are such hypocrites brainwashed by a narrow world view of us being good vs. bad.

&

Thumbs Up to the young man named Jesse who helped me last Sunday morning in the car park under Coles supermarket in Dubbo with a flat battery in my car. Many people just walked by, but you took the time out of your morning to help and for that I am very thankful.

&

Thumbs Up and thank you to Mad Mex restaurant in Orana Mall, which I noticed this week is doing its bit for the planet – and acknowledging that as their purpose – by offering a meat-free Monday menu. Well done. Someone gets it.

&

Thumbs Up to the staff at Dubbo Hospital’s emergency department. I don’t remember names, I was very unwell at the time, but the security and nursing staff who helped me out of my car also deserve a Thumbs Up.

&

Thumbs Up to Troy. He’s that anonymous guy who turns up every day to clean the Return and Earn machine at Wellington. Well done, I for one appreciate your work.

&

Thumbs Up to Daniel from Chill-Rite Dubbo for the very professional and thorough maintenance of our shop’s air conditioning. Your friendly, respectful and helpful manner was much appreciated, you’re an asset to your company. Well done young man.

&

Thumbs Up to Amanda at the Rex Airlines check-in at Dubbo airport. She could not have been more helpful.

' Thumbs Down to the Rex website that made it impossi-

ble to pass on this compliment to Amanda’s employer. So I hope someone sees this.

&

Thumbs Up to the Canberra Raiders playing South Sydney Rabbitohs in Dubbo in a couple of months’ time. It’s so good to see games at this level played in the regions.

&

Thumbs Up to Tyler at Tyler’s Brow Studio for an outstanding job on my eyebrows. I can’t thank you enough for the pride and dedication you put in your work that comes from your heart. I’m so hap-

py with the new me, I’ll be back.

Thumbs Up to Peter Rothwell for standing for the Liberal Democrats for this area in the next (federal) election. He seems like a good bloke and we need a good solid dash of common sense when it comes to people representing us – they need to represent the people, not a small minority of vested interests.

Thumbs Down to all levels of government for the parts they’ve played in letting housing process reach these obscene levels. An entire generation of homebuyers will be forever locked out of what now really is an Australian “dream”, that of owning your own home. Public policy settings and unnecessary red tape at all tiers of government are killing things.

Thumbs Up to Ingo from Dubbo Regional Council for his polite and professional manner.

Thumbs Down to the poor state of the walkway between Wheelers Lane and Bunnings, making it hard for pedestrians to use the path. We have to walk on the road. It also needs spraying for weeds.

Thumbs Up to Rodney and all the team at JR Detailing for their friendly and professional service, and for the excellent job they did on my car recently. Thank you.

Thumbs Up to Sharon Murray, principal of Dubbo South Primary School, for opening the school gate at 3pm, and greeting all the parents, grandparents and people waiting to pick up all the new kindergarten children from school.

Thank you Sharon for being such a modern day principal.

Thumbs Down to the rude and aggressive man who wanted to queue jump at Woolies recently.

All others were waiting their turn with patience – there’s no need at all for that sort of behaviour.

Thumbs Up to John Ryan for his recent story on Covid policy: Battleground Dubbo. Thank you for journalism that covers both sides of the story.

Thumbs Up to the South Campus student who was riding his bike along Fitzroy Street one afternoon last week and apparently noticed some bins that had fallen over and were blocking the footpath nearby. He stopped, picked up the bins to clear the path, and then rode off. It was a random act of kindness by this young bloke.

He probably thought his gesture would go unnoticed, but hopefully he sees this Thumbs Up!

There's a whole lot of reasons to join Wellington Lions Club - check them out!

IT’S nice to see service clubs back to being able to do what they do best – serve the community.

Here’s a message from the Wellington Lions Club: “Thank you to all who supported Wellington Lions last weekend. We had a great couple of days at our preloved book fair and a very busy BBQ at the Vintage Fair.

“We will be able to send a substantial amount to the Australian Lions Flood Disaster Relief Appeal.

“We are looking for helpers at our next BBQ on Easter Saturday at Stuart Town, as well as new members.

Anyone interested please contact a Lion at Saturday’s Book Fair, or phone the president Chris Hardy 68454319.”

U3A adds more strings to Lorraine's uke YOU’RE never too old to learn or find a new passion, and the active bunch that make up Dubbo’s University of the Third Age (U3A) cohort is living proof.

They sent us this picture and story of one “student” who’s found “a whole new world”: “Lorraine Manusu is a now a ukulele enthusiast, thanks to the new skills she’s acquired at the U3A’s Ukes for Fun Classes here in Dubbo.

“She recently attended the Ukulele Festival at Katoomba, with some fellow Dubbo U3A ukulele friends where she was the lucky winner of the major raffle prize of a beautiful handmade Wilkinson ukulele as pictured here.

“Lorraine credits the U3A for opening up a whole new world to her with the newfound confidence she’s acquired through attending various classes and stepping out of her comfort zone.

“She encourages others to be brave and try something new by joining U3A, and is looking forward to classes resuming.”

Congratulations, Lorraine – and thanks to U3A for sharing this great news story.

If you’re interested, U3A classes started again this week at the Western Plains Cultural Centre – for course details, go to www. dubbo.u3anet.org.au If you’d like more information, you can email adm.u3adubbo@gmail. com

Enjoy outdoors, the Red Dirt Camping way

F

or local business owners Noel and Mel McNair, 2022 is a year to celebrate a decade of trading under the name Red Dirt Camping.

They have been involved in the business of camping gear, however, for 12 years.

“We chose the name because Dubbo means red dirt, plus we don’t mind getting out there in the red dirt ourselves,” Noel said.

The guarantee you’ll find expertise backed by real camping experience can make all the difference whether you’re buying one of their many brands of sleeping bag, Australian-made Aquayak kayaks or cast-iron cookware.

“The cast iron camp ovens are very popular but across our ranges we’ve got a

number of brands which are tried and true, quality and reliable, like OzTrail tents and Bushman fridges.

“The Aquayak Kayaks are made in Melbourne and come in a very reasonable price point. They’re a great company to deal with and they are very popular,” Noel said.

While there aren’t trends in the camping trade, Noel says being independent is a big appeal to suppliers who can try out new product lines with them.

“For example, we’ve currently got a new model of Road Chef oven called Big Bertha.

Its point of difference to most other brands on the market is that it has two elements. A bottom and a top element make for large and

quicker capacity and cook time,” he said.

For something really novel however, you must drop into the store at 58 Victoria Street, Dubbo, and size up the OzTrail Monsta Chair on display as you enter the extensive showroom.

At around 2 metres tall, it’s a camping chair fit for a giant!

“It is surprising how quickly they do sell. They’re $150 and very popular with soccer mum’s who like to curl up in them under a blanket and get out of the winter wind, or one lady said if you’re at the back of a row of chairs you can see above them,” Noel said.

Now that Covid restrictions have eased, this year’s Easter break and the winter school holidays are looking prom-

ising, as campers from the coast head out west, locals go to Burrendong Dam or attempt major treks like the Birdsville Track.

“There’ll be a new catalogue coming out for Easter with specials. If you’re reading this story, drop in and tell us you saw it, to receive a great discount on the Road Chef oven range,” Noel said.

Red Dirt Camping is locally owned family business which carries all your camping needs, including camp furniture, tableware, showers, lighting, solar, accessories, tents, swags, gazebos, sleeping bags, products for cooking, 4WD, touring and caravan, kayaks, plus fridges and ice boxes.

Everything you’ll need to enjoy the great outdoors!

Red Dirt Camping’s Aquayak kayaks are made in Melbourne and reasonably priced.

OzTrail Monsta Chairs are more like a room with a view for campers with big outdoor comfort needs.

DEAL OF THE WEEK

Let Noel or Mel know you’ve seen this story and get a discount on the Road Chef range, including the 2-element oven, Big Bertha.

Morris Park Speedway feeds the need for speed

By CAITLIN RYMAN RACES at Morris Park Speedway are always a source of excitement, and the recent event was no exception with speedway fans from Dubbo and surrounding areas to making their way to see what this year’s racers had to offer. Lots of families

enjoyed an endless amount of cheer and anticipation from the racers and crews, with many supporters making up the crowd. It was a night of revving engines and an enormous amount of community spirit, with all the racers putting in a huge effort behind the wheel.

Cars, bikes, Indians and rain Photos by PETER WOODWARD

FROM Mudgee, from Orange and from further afield they travelled to Dubbo to watch the screening of The World’s Fastest Indian – despite the inclement weather.

It shows better than anything the drawing power of Western NSW’s last drive-in theatre. No

wonder it’s a source of angst for so many people that the big screen will be coming down in the next few months, with the site sold to be de-veloped.

The street cruise prior to the movie event got underway at Douglas Mawson Drive, rive, latecomers getting g a drenching for the efforts orts but all undeterred d and keen to have a great at evening.

Community brekkie and a surprise for Lorraine Photos by STEVE COWLEY AND KEN SMITH A BREAK in the unpredictable weather came just in time to provide a backdrop of a clear sunny morning at the Macquarie Street rotunda for the first of what is hoped will be a return to regular community breakfasts with local representatives from all three tiers of government: federal, state and council.

The morning was made even more special by the announcement, ahead of International Women’s Day, of the Dubbo Electorate’s Woman of the Year, Lorraine Holland, for her tireless work with

promoting awareness of dementia and Alzheimer’s Disease, which last year claimed the life of her husband Alex after a long battle.

On hand to present the award was NSW Minister for Women, Regional Health and Mental Health, Bronnie Taylor, and watching on was also Deputy Prime Minister Barnaby Joyce.

Members of the public were treated to a delicious free breakfast of bacon and egg rolls and fruit salad from café The Sand Goanna, which was also well patronised for a steady flow of coffee throughout the morning.

Western Cancer Centre officially unveiled Photos by STEVE COWLEY IT might have involved pomp and pollies, but the day belonged to the people – the official opening of the new Western Cancer Centre in Dubbo is a testament to what passionate people, working in the service of their community, can achieve.

Member for Parkes Mark Coulton acknowledged the dedication of many members of the

community and medical fraternity who came to him with the idea of a cancer centre for Dubbo back in 2016. He recalled his proudest moment being the day he presented a petition with the signatures of more than 40,000 people to parliament, calling for the establishment of these much needed services.

Many of those groups and individuals were there to see the official plaque unveiled.

Nursing Unit Manager Tim Williams shows Minister for Women and Regional Health Bronnie Taylor – a former cancer care nurse – some of the chemotherapy equipment in the new centre.

The pollies and the people: A gathering of just some of the people who helped make the dream of a new cancer centre for Dubbo a reality.

Centre of the centre at WPCC

By CAITLIN RYMAN

THE Western Plains Cultural Centre (WPCC) recently held a unique exhibition featuring the work of contemporary artist Mel O’Callaghan, called Centre of the Centre, which is inspired by a small mineral containing a tiny pocket of water, possibly millions of years old, that was given to her by her grandfather, renowned Australian mineralogist, Albert Chapman.

The Paris-born Australian artist has translated these investigations into an “immersive exhibition

experience that features a large-scale video work, accompanied by glass forms that entwine a choreography of performance, breathing and sculpture”.

Centre of the Centre was performed at the WPCC by Omer Backley-Astrachan, who told Dubbo Photo News he was “honoured to come here and experience the generosity of the art lovers community”. WPCC curator Ken Buchanan said, “It (was) a wonderful opportunity to present this performance, not often enough seeing strong performing arts.”

COMPLETE EACH GRID WITH NUMBERS FROM 1 TO 6, KEEPING IN MIND THAT: - a number can only appear once per row - a number can only appear once per column - a number can only appear once in each box of 6 squares

MEGA MAZE

SPOT THE DIFFERENCE

SUDOKU EXTRA

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.

Shelley’s umpiring skills identified

By GEOFF GE MANN A LOT of people play sport, some get selected for higher so honours but for some there is ho another way to reach your full a potential - umpiring”. po Dubbo Netball umpire Shelley Hutchinson, has been selected iin the NSW Talent ID PathProgram. It is a tremendous way P achievement for a Regional Umachieve pire and she is the only one out of six across the state to come from west of the sandstone curtain. cu Shelley was a advised at the end of last year that she had been be selected.

“I was very excited about the news. It is an e achievement I am very proud of. Just to be accepted into the program is great.

Shelley says the last couple of years have been very frustrating for everyone.

“We’ve all had to make sacrifices but it doesn’t surprise me that netball was able to adapt very quickly.

The netball tragic never saw herself as playing for Australia’s Diamonds but her love for the sport is such that she wants to be involved as much as she can.

“Umpiring has always been a passion of mine - umpiring, mentoring and I enjoy playing. To get this opportunity to go to Sydney and umpire Premier League games and be a part of the Talent Pathway Program is just a dream,” the local accountant said.

Shelley is grateful for the opportunity to improve her own skills but I sensed as much excitement about being able to bring the experiences she has back into the local scene so others might set their own goals.

‘Not everyone can play for Australia but we can all umpire and watch from the best vantage points as young players emerge. It is the perfect place to be if you can’t actually have the ball in your hand,” she smiled.

Shelley was identified by Netball NSW Umpiring Coaches and Mentors who assessed her performances at many Regional and State Carnivals. She was very humble.

“I didn’t apply for the program. I guess Netball NSW have seen me officiating over the years and they’ve provided me with feed-

back to better my game. I have also done lots of courses and skills training sessions over the years just to increase my knowledge and hone my skills.”

Shelley says she feels honoured to have been approached and plans to give it her best shot with higher representative appointments in the offing. She has been really throwing herself into offseason training.

“I’ve increased my fitness work, checking my diet and reading a lot. Basically, just doing what I need to mentally prepare for the season ahead. I love getting feedback from the top umpires. At the Under 17 State titles earlier in the year I was observed and mentored by some of the best and it really made me think about my positional play and decision making.”

Game management is crucial in every sport and Shelley has appreciated when mentors have offered tips on how to handle certain situations under pressure.

Currently Shelley’s on-court time has been restricted to the 7-A-Side at Dubbo Sports World but over the past couple of weeks she has been on the boards at both rounds of Western premier League. She sees these as the perfect platform to put into practice what she’s learning in the pathways Program.

Shelley is totally behind the local Association which promotes umpiring as essential for all netball players.

“Without umpires you don’t have a netball game so it’s really important to get kids to have a whistle in their mouths early. It gives them a different perspective and will ultimately extend their careers and could even lead to representation they may not achieve as a player. Dubbo Netball is quite involved in mentoring and developing young players.

As I said, without umpires we just don’t have a game”.

Shelley’s aim is to achieve her National A Badge. She is the first Umpire from Dubbo to be selected in the Pathways Program and sets a high standard for others to follow.

“I just love the game and want to challenge myself to be the very best I can be.

If this opens other netball ‘passionistas’ like myself to widen their horizons, set some goals and look for ways to achieve them I will be a very happy umpire.”

Dubbo Tri Ladies Day Event

By GEOFF MANN Photos by MEL POCKNALL

LAST Sunday the Hippos jumped in early to beat the rain – wouldn’t want to get wet – and completed another successful adventure.

Club President Jason Dearmer was ecstatic.

“What a fantastic turnout for our #finishlinesnotfinishtimes Ladies Day Event!”

He was quick to offer praise to those who participated and had special words for supporters.

“A big thank you to our volunteers, Pink Angels Inc. and Jason, Ben, Marc, Chris, Scott and Terry along with others who helped with setup, pack up and during the race!

Thanks too, to Justine and Mel for cooking up the pancakes – and racing!”

Jason says it was great weather for racing with a brief shower before the start and cool for the rest of the event!

He says the Hippos swam, ran and cycled with tunes spun by DJ Luscious to keep everyone moving!

Congratulations to the following racers:  Ladies – Camilla Cullenward, 2nd Alison Ruskin Rowe, 3rd Cathy Harvey  Men – Dan Roberts, 2nd Bryce Foley, 3rd Adam Romanovski  Teams – Mel Mertens-Pip Oulton-Sophie Mensies, 2nd Lisa Pope-Jo Arndell,  3rd Gemma-Zoe-Milly.

This Sunday the Hippos host the final round of the Central West Interclub event with teams from Mudgee, Bathurst, Orange, Parkes and Forbes.

COONAMBLE’S reputation for hospitality and the sensational racing promised by the Newhaven Country Racing Championships on Sunday, March 13, including a record prize purse of $430,000, has already lured some of rac-ing's biggest names.

Top tier jockeys Hugh Bowman, who steered the legendary mare Winx to 33 victories, and James McDonald, 2021 Melbourne Cup winner aboard Verry Elleegant, have secured rides in Coonamble.

The 10-race program not only represents the number of races to be held in one day at Coonamble in recent memory but brings together the cream of regional riders, trainers and horseflesh.

They will be joined trackside

by Racing NSW's Graham Hinton, Scott Ken-nedy and Brian Charman, Sky TV's Racing Commentator Richard Calendar, CEO of the Australian Turf Club Jamie Barkley and other high-ranking officials from NSW Racing who will fly direct to Coonamble to avoid Syd-ney Basin floodwaters.

Coonamble Jockey Club President Ken Waterford says preparations have been ongoing with club members working hard to ensure the track is in top shape and the weekend a great social event for everyone who attends.

"In November we laid another 1600 square metres of turf on the track, so it's about as good as you can get it – it's unbelievable," Mr Waterford said.

"We also put an automatic watering system on the outside of the straight to the 500 metre

mark."

The Terminus Hotel will be the venue for a Calcutta and auction on the Sat-urday night with profits to go to the Coonamble Cancer Survival Fund and further improvements at the racecourse.

Racegoers will be treated to a free glass of champagne for all ladies who ar-rive on course before the second race.

The Fashions on the Field will feature sections for mature and younger la-dies, gents, couples and juniors.

As well as a jumping castle for the youngsters, a roving threepiece brass band will be entertaining the crowd.

By GEOFF MANN

"It's hard to put a band somewhere on race days – do you go out front of the grandstand, do you go near the bar, or out near the marquees?" Mr Wa-terford said.

"This way the band can be anywhere and everywhere people want them on the day."

The 343 Brass Band is a New Orleans-style line-up featuring some of Syd-ney’s top young horn players and drummers and has promised an energetic mix of jazz, pop, RnB and gospel tunes that will liven up the atmosphere at Coonamble Racecourse.

Another race day attraction will be a life-sized sculpture by

local artist Brian Campbell, who has made a name for himself creating animals and people from wire netting.

On Saturday, the Clydesdale/ Persian cross heavy horse artwork named Clyde will hold court trackside, putting in an appearance before he receives his final touches and is transported to his new home in a private garden at Mt Tambourine in Queensland.

Brian's piece will not be complete at the Country Championships, as Clyde is yet to be rigged with collar and reins but horse lovers and art lovers alike should enjoy meeting him at the races.

YOUNG Jack Allen added another trophy to his ever-growing stock on Sunday when he took out the Jokers Ink March Trophy.

“In an incredible swim, the flying feet of the CYMS winger were wound back to allow Jack to finish, an incredible 0.03 off his nominated time,” Judy Walsh wrote in awe.

“This win is a back-to-back for Jack as he also won the February Monthly Trophy. He always swims with great enthusiasm and really pushes himself in every race.”

Nicole Johnstone touched out the field in the final of the 25 metres Freestyle.

“Ned” Sparkes’s run of wins came to an end in the Breaststroke / Breaststroke Brace relay when he and partner Tom Gray touched last!

“All good things come to an end, Ned. This was your Glenrowan,” Judy chuckled.

Gary Giddings and Rob Rich were awarded the points after Norm Bahr and Mark Prentice broke their time.

Sparksey was not going empty handed and announced he was the winner of the closest to time 25 metres Backstroke.

Ron Everett was closest to time in the 75m Freestyle, followed by Jacob Pearce who has had a few really good swims in the past weeks and has been unlucky not to score a win, according to Judy.

THE heavy rain that hit town on Saturday afternoon and some pre-booked commitments kept a few regulars away with a smaller than normal field on the greens.

Team Cole, led by the irrepressible John with Paul Woodbridge and Dave Davistook took on Team Scott - Leo Balstrad and Gordon Lummis with Gordon Scott himself.

Team Scott led with a three; Team Cole equalled then added one on the next end and by end 13 they had what seemed to be a dominant lead of seven. Scotty’s boys clawed them back but

couldn’t stop Coley and his team adding two for a 19-17 win.

Beryl Scott, Den Musenger (a fly-in-fly-out from WA) and Bryan O’Sullivan were drawn against Shirley Marchant, Frank Armstrong and Pete Ruzans.

Team Bryan wasted no time, dashing away to a 9-1 lead after half a dozen ends but a booming tally of five by Team Pete on the next signalled “a match”! Both teams settled down and began playing normally until OMG – the Bryan lot constructed their own 5 shot end on 11, and bragged big about it! The gap closed to three at one stage but another collective multi-wick shot to help

gained four for Bryan’s mob who held on for a 22-16 win.

Sue O’Dea and Steve Kelly were placed under the management of Kevin Scott to play Ron McAuley and Peter Bennison under the influence of Chris Cristante.

Kevin is a ‘team manager’s manager’, taking charge in a quiet and unassuming way yet getting good results from his charges. They kicked off the scoring on the first four ends, leading by seven before Chris and Co. The lead was extended to eight at one stage but Chris’s mob closed to within four Sue, Steve and Kevvy ran out winners 22-14.

Big John Kennedy, Gary Hug-

gins and Ian Hobson, who last week was spotted rolling up with bowls that were not orange, took on Allan Stratford, Cheryl Storch and skip Col Cottee.

Col’s team led early, Ian’s mob equalled up by end 7. Game on!

Then Col’s mob hit “Go” and they showed nothing less than a dominance, a supremacy sublime as they shout out by 10! 17-7 was the final score and Mr Cottee continues to have a fresh smile every week!

Sue McAuley was given the privilege of being the swinger for the morning. She fronted Chris Strojny and Mel Giddings with Doc Livingston and Eric ‘The

Satch’ Satchell on the other team.

The game progressed with odd strikes here and there but on End 15, the quietly spoken Satch and his team rolled a score of seven to turn a four-shot lead into an unassailable 11! The final score was 22-11 in a superbly contested game.  Winners (on countback) Sue O’Dea, Steve Kelly and Kevin Scott from Allan Stratford, Cheryl Storch and Col Cottee.  Resters - Al Stratford and Doc Livingston.  Lucky numbers - Frank Armstrong, Leo Balstrad and Graham Ross.

Waldie takes footy show on the road

By TAHLIA SINCLAIR

DUBBO local Kaitlyn Waldie has clashed heads with some of the state’s best Australian rules football players at the AFLW Queanbeyan Cup last weekend.

As the game continues to grow across the western region, a western combine team playing under the Bathurst Giants name were sent to the inaugural competition.

A key player for the Dubbo Demons, Waldie was pleased to hit the ground running ahead of season 2022.

“I didn’t realise how old I’d gotten in the off season.

“There’s a big difference between what we do in training and actually playing a game, so it was a bit of a shock to the system,” said Waldie.

The Giants didn’t expect to see much success in the competition but came out ahead in one of their three first round matches.

“We were outclassed, re-

ally. I wouldn’t say there was a significant skill difference. The biggest difference between the teams was fitness, which looks like skill. When you have more people being able to run

harder and faster, it makes them look more skilful.”

Despite horrendous conditions, causing the final day of competition to be scrapped, the underdog team came away with a win

in their final game.

“It took me a few games to get settled, and where I was playing, in defence, was the biggest mix of players. It just took us a minute to settle and realise what

each other were doing. By the end of the day, we could just communicate perfectly with each other, we had it covered,” she said.

Central West Representative coach Mick Sloane lead the side, with Waldie saying his ability to coach women’s football is second to none.

“It was an exceptional competition and a really good learning curve. To play against people who are really well drilled in running plays and good strategic plays, it was fantastic.”

Dubbo Demons Women’s coach Peter Martinoli said it was a big thing to see players stepping up from the club.

“It’s a big step up from playing normal club footy.

You’re playing against the best of the best with a lot of AFLW listed and contracted players, it’s not just a run of the mill competition by any means,” Mr Martinoli said.

“It was an absolute pleasure to watch her play, she wasn’t playing in her ‘right’ team, but she did really slot in.

“It’s uplifting seeing that we have that talent within us to go up with not just the best in the Central West but in NSW.”

Central West AFL players have fewer opportunities to play outside of the league boundaries, with geographical isolation and the popularity of the sport contributing factors.

“Credit goes to Liz Kennedy, she sourced it out and got us involved in the carnival.

“As Central West players we’re normally very isolated and don’t get these kinds of opportunities to play outside our league,” said Waldie.

The competition was run by the Queanbeyan Tigers Australian Football Club and attracted 12 clubs from across regional NSW and the ACT.

The 2022 Central West AFL season will kick off in early May, with Dubbo Demons travelling to Tumbarumba for their annual friendly match in April.

Narromine Jets land on the Mandagery

By GEOFF MANN NARROMINE Jets Old Boys went rustling through the cupboards in search of boots, mouthguards, knee guards, shoulder pads and lots of tape as they prepared for the trek down memory lane to Eugowra and the annual Mandagery Cup Masters League carnival.

On Saturday blokes who had played as far back as the ‘80s ran out against the Eugowra Olden Eagles, Past Masters (PM) Ivanhoe, Tuggeranong Knights, PM ACT Valley Dragons, Cargo Heelers, Condobolin Tired Old Rams, Manildra Rhinos, Trundle Past Boomers and Canowindra’s “lying down” Tigers in a day filled with raucous laughter and memories of past and glorious battles.

Visitors entered the former

Eugowra Recreation Ground through the Ian Walsh Gates and played in front of the hill made famous by the late John “Bandy” Greenhalgh. Many times on the day, Bandy’s catch cry rang out ‘“Strike Me Rone, you blokes”!

Jets Publicity Officer Sally Everett says it was the perfect start to the new season.

“It was a great day! Lots of sore bodies on Sunday, including my husband! Never too old to remember how good you thought you were,” she laughed.

Jets President Mick Burns pulled on the red and white, plastered some deep heat over tired muscles and limbered up with his squad.

“We won two out of three in Eugowra, so the song on the bus going home was the late, great

Meatloaf classic, 2 Out of 3 ain’t bad!”

Mick was full of praise for coach Bud Cape and the eclectic group of Narromine supporters who came along to cheer “and to laugh”.

“Thanks to all the supporters who came across and watched a bunch of broken-down old farts try and play footy. Thank you to all the boys that played. It was a great day played in the right spirit of Masters’ Footy,” Mick added.

Writing as the bus pulled away from the small town on the edge of the Mandagery Creek, the President was quite reflective.

“Time to relax and enjoy a few beers and enjoy the bus ride home driven by the most tolerant man in Australia, Jason Phillips thanks legend.”

SPORT Cricket legends’ roads cross in Wellington

By GEOFF MANN SHANE Warne and Rod Marsh played in different eras but if fate had conspired for them to be in the same team I’m sure “Caught Marsh bowled Warne” would have been up there with the famous “Lillyan Marsh” tag.

In a remarkable coincidence the wicketkeeper from the 80s and the worlds most feared leg-spinner ended their “partnership” within days.

It is a phenomenon in the game of cricket that when one batsman falls, the next goes shortly after.

Warne and Marsh are now inexplicably linked, not only in the annals of the great game, not only in cricket but by a quirk of fate in Wellington.

When Warne St, that runs from the Bell crosses the western rail line and spears towards the Macquarie at the top of town, it intersects with Marsh St! It’s as though Dennis Lillee had bowled a bouncer that started on the lower reaches and landed at an X on a map to create a unique and everlasting memorial.

Marie Cornish played for Australia while she was at Wellington High School. She was an off-spinner who was handed her baggy green in the 70s and played one of the first Women’s Test matches and one-dayers at Lords.

Marie was surprised when Dubbo Photo News pointed out the most unusual intersection.

“Neither of these legends played in Wellington but we are definitely a cricketing town. I guess this could intersection become a focus for travellers – Warne – Marsh. It has a nice ring!”

Pictured: Marie Cornish is one of Wellington’s most accomplished cricketers. The former test cricketer says it’s a remarkable coincidence her hometown has an intersection honouring two of the game’s greatest-ever players, who died within days of each other late last week..
