SKATING for over 16 years, Coady LoMonaco says that his passion for skating has always grown. Being introduced to the sport by his cousin when he was 13, he shares that he progressed very quickly. “It’s frustrating learning tricks when you’re so young because of your little legs and things like that, but the more you practise and overtime you learn new skills,” he expresses. He says that his ideal environment to skate on is the street as he can experiment with various platforms and stairs, he continues saying that he enjoys skating off stairs and progressing in flat tricks. Coady tells Dubbo Photo News that his greatest trick on flat ground is a 360 degree flip which features a 360 degree rotation of the board while the board flips. “It took me a while to learn, but like anything – it becomes muscle memory,” he shares. Listing all of his injuries, Coady demonstrates that he has no fear when it comes to skateboarding, from sprained wrists to broken collarbones – he enjoys the skate culture and atmosphere.

CRISS-CROSSED SKIES PART OF GLOBAL ELITE VAX EXPERIMENT

city’s sky. “Anyone for noughts and crosses?” he asked. “Who is spraying the skies around Dubbo? What are they spraying and why?” A fact-checking team from Dubbo Photo News allocated a

taskforce to set up a committee to nominate a working party to stage a series of community consultations and low-level meetings in a bid to get to the bottom of the mystery. The ﬁrst meeting will be held tomorrow, April 1, at the Dubbo Futurist Polymath Citizens Club, at 13 o’clock.

TEACHER SHORTAGE:

Covid problem or Coalition issue? By JOHN RYAN THE deep-seated debate between the state government and the NSW Teachers Federation has escalated in Dubbo with the Federation claiming staff shortages have reached a tipping point beyond crisis, and local MP Dugald Saunders placing the blame on Covid-19 absences disrupting the workforce in local schools. Dubbo Photo News has been told the situation has been so dire at one Dubbo state high school campus that teachers had to be brought in from a neighbouring town – where that high school is already short-staffed – just to be able to supervise, not teach, Dubbo students.

That Dubbo school, the Teachers Federation claims, has had more than 1000 lessons disrupted so far this term and yet we’re only up to Week 8. “Whilst this number is extremely alarming, it is not a true indicator of the students affected,” NSW Teachers Federation representative Tim Danaher told Dubbo Photo News. “Each of these classes can have up to 30 students per class which if you multiply this by the lessons unable to be taught due the lack of teachers, then extrapolates to around 30,000 incidences of individual students learning being disrupted in just eight weeks. “This is just one of many similar situations in Dub-

bo that are currently playing out.” He said whilst teachers in the Dubbo electorate do an outstanding job, their efforts are hampered by unsustainable workloads, pointing to research published in December which found that teachers, on average, were working more than 55 hours a week. “Meanwhile, the Department of Education’s own research has concluded that uncompetitive salaries for teachers are making it harder to attract high achievers into the profession and is contributing to growing shortages of fulltime and casual teachers. This has been exacerbated by Covid.” Dubbo MP Dugald Saunders told Dubbo Photo

News that large numbers of staff calling in sick at the same time due to a local outbreak of COVID-19 pandemic is a challenge currently facing all employers, schools included and he says contingency arrangements are in place and include using teachers from nearby schools and accredited teachers working for the Department in non-teaching roles, where required. “In these cases, schools are operational but are remaining as flexible as possible to ensure continuity of learning, including combining some classes for short periods of time where required,” Mr Saunders said. “The best place for our students to learn is in the

classroom but the safety and wellbeing of our students and staff is the department’s number one priority. “This means that from time-to-time schools may temporarily modify school operations. A local arrangement which supported the supervision of students across college campuses occurred recently.” His claims about recent local teacher recruitment are at odds with the Federations: Mr Saunders produced figures which stated “across all NSW public schools in the Dubbo electorate, there are 35.4 full-time-equivalent (FTE) vacancies of which Continued on page 9

DUBBO residents who are reliant on public transport will be able to voice their concerns or opinions on bus services through a new community consultation initiative designed to give people the opportunity to share how they think the bus services across Dubbo could be improved to better meet community needs. Minister for Regional Transport Sam Faraway said the government wants “to ensure our public transport network meets the specific needs of this community, with more reliable services and better connections to the places people want to visit and at the times they want to travel”. “We know Dubbo is a central hub for western NSW, and we encourage feedback from community members from surrounding areas about how the bus network in Dubbo can also be improved for visitors to the city.” Member for Dubbo Dugald Saunders said improved transport connections would support the region’s thriving industries, and help boost the economy. “This is the community’s chance to help us identify gaps and opportunities around how bus services operate, so we can deliver improvements to better meet your needs,” he said. The consultation will close on April 22. Feedback can be provided by calling 1800 717 528, emailing RegionalCitiesProgram@ transport.nsw.gov.au or writing to Transport for NSW, 16 Regional Cities Program – Dubbo, PO Box K659, Haymarket, NSW 1240. Residents are also invited to attend an online information session at 12.15pm on April 13 where they will hear from the project team and be able to ask them questions directly.

NBN Cash slammed as Coalition spin

DUBBO has been promised benefits from the half billion spend promised by the federal government for Australia’s National Broadband Network (NBN) but the Communications Elections and Plumbers Union (CEPU), the union representing technicians responsible for servicing the NBN, says this week’s federal government announcement to pour money into regional networks is simply election campaign “spin”. The commonwealth claims there’ll be a nationwide spend of $480 million but CEPU National President Shane Murphy says the NBN was set up to fail from the moment the current government chose to replace the fibre to the home roll-out with ageing copper wires. “This government has had years to fix it. Instead, all they’ve done is allowed the network to be riddled with pyramid sham contracting schemes that have left workers high and dry and customers cringing over endless connectivity and speed issues,” he said. “While executives at NBN Co chew down millions of dollars in tax-payer funded bonuses, frontline technicians are being paid as little as $50 a day, or not at all.”

WE’VE NO PLANET B By JOHN RYAN CARRIGAN Baker is concerned about the future of the Earth and believes a warming climate spells catastrophe for her generation. She believes many kids her age feel powerless to do anything to prevent impending disaster. The 15-year-old, who’s in Year 10 at the Central West Leadership Academy, joined many others from the school to march in a bid to raise awareness about the thoughts and feelings of students across the world. “We’re all here to make a change and we’ve very passionate about it,” she told Dubbo Photo News. “This generation, because we can’t vote, this is how we make our voice.” She believes many students are discouraged and feel disenfranchised because they don’t have a say. “I feel a large majority of students have the same opinions and they want to be heard however don’t know how to make that change or whether they’ll be heard if they make that change.” She said while it may have been a small local protest, every small step by individuals and groups is important.

“This is the first step, to encourage other people to do the same. We’re trying to help other people by being the first ones.” Central West leadership Academy coordinator of Wellbeing, Pete Whiting, was one of the teachers escorting the students to Victoria Park for the protest and said he was proud that so many from the school opted to join in the local chapter of what’s become a global march. “We have a lot of students who are very stressed about the climate and what their future looks like, so these are our kids coming down for the student climate strike, taking their time off class. We didn’t force them to come. Roughly 90 per cent of our students decided to come down to stand up for what they believe in,” Mr Whiting said. He’s keen to see the climate debate taken out of the political ideological sphere and instead be discussed on its various merits, saying much of what climate change supporters want to see happen is undeniably good for the planet and the people, animals and plants who live on it. “One of the things that kids really seem to understand is a sense

of fairness. Not just our kids but all kids. I think they’re really worried that the debate has become something which is unfair, it’s looking for what’s best for a small group of people as opposed to what’s better for the planet.” With recent property prices effectively locking much of a generation out of ever owning their own home, Mr Whiting said social justice issues, not just in the climate debate, were rising to the surface of young minds. Kids are thinking the system just isn’t fair,

and that the adults leading them aren’t doing things right, or with any sense of fairness. “I think one of the things that we see often as adults, and we’re all guilty of it, is thinking we have all the answers,” he said. “After nearly 20 years of teaching I think our kids are really switched on and aware. They know what they’re moving in to, they pay attention to the news and the people around them. It’s a concern for our kids and a concern for all of us. “They are way more intuitive than people give them credit for, but on top of that, they actually care and put in the work. It’s not just intuition, kids at any school are paying attention and they’re listening and actively forming their own opinions.”

The times, they are a changin’ – but not fast enough By JOHN RYAN COME gather ‘round people, or you’ll sink like a stone according to long-time Dubbo environmentalist Matt Parmeter. He cut a lone figure on Darling Street with his climate signs and was buoyed by a large group of school students staging a climate rally just across the park. “Today is very important in this debate. The news reports this morning about the Great Barrier Reef falling away,” he told Dubbo Photo News. “When I was born there were 320 parts per million of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere. Today it’s 420 ppm, the global temperature is rising, there’s record high temperatures in the Arctic and the Antarctic. We’ve got to change – society is starting to change but very slowly. There are a lot of retrograde forces, there’s a lot of money in fossil fuels. “People have put solar panels on their roof, an energy transition is happening and Australia is on that path (but) we need to go faster. The current government has not gone fast enough – they’ve been supporting the old industries instead of getting in and sup-

porting the new industries where the jobs are.” He says the Greens, for whom he’s run as a candidate on many occasions, have strong policies on this issue. “We are very pleased that the school students have come out this morning to support action on climate change because those school kids will be the ones inheriting the world. We want to hand it on to them in as good a shape as we can.” Mr Parmeter doesn’t do social media but like many in the community he’s concerned the keyboard warriors who infest the social media landscape have helped to create ideological divides in society. He’s also worried about the way that ideological battleground drawn up around climate has become so political it’s driven wedges between friends and family members across the nation. Then there’s what he calls the elephant in the room – the enormously powerful lobbying power of the monied interests who don’t want to see their cash cows slaughtered. He pointed as one case in point to the new brand of tech entreprenurs, like those who offered to

take over energy giant AGL. “They made their money in new industries and are saying they can actually do good things for the planet and create sustainable jobs yet still make money at the same time,” he said. “A lot of the division is caused by money. What we’re seeing is the older forces who have invested their funds into the old coalfired power stations still trying to get that last dollar out of that before those things retire.

Fraudsters use clickbait in weighty scam

DUBBO Facebook users are not immune to scams, however, there is a new wave of fraudsters targeting weighty vulnerabilities by using certified government logos to entice an on-screen audience. Consumers are warned to not fall for a weight loss scam suggesting that people can lose 45 kilograms with one teaspoon of a product. Chief clinical adviser Dr Steve Hambleton said scammers are using the My Health Record logo to lure users into the product and ads. “Government agencies don’t lend their logos to companies and My Health Record is a trusted brand,” Dr Hambleton explained. The ads all link to similarly formatted websites, despite each being hosted on different domains. “The use of the trusted My Health Record logo is a cause for concern,” he said.

“What we have to do as we make this energy transition is help those communities that will be adversely affected. The Dubbo community will get net benefits with solar at Wellington and wind at Bodangora but for communities in, say, the Hunter Valley, the government needs to have a plan to help those communities to transition into the renewable energy technology that will give them jobs.”

Youth health up in smoke as vaping trend grows RENEWED concerns have been raised about the escalating vaping habits of the state’s youth, with one in five young people, aged 16 to 24, having vaped and more young people taking up the dangerous habit. NSW Health director of mental health, drug and alcohol Jason Crisp said vaping can leave young people at risk of mental and physical health problems including an increased risk of depression and anxiety. “Symptoms of nicotine addiction from vaping can include feeling irritable or anxious,” Mr Crisp said. “Stopping vaping can sometimes be hard for young people, and you may need advice from a GP or youth health service.” According to NSW Health, depending on the size of the vape and nicotine strength, the amount of nicotine in a vape can be higher than 50 cigarettes. Testing has also revealed that vapes labelled ‘nicotine-free’ can also have high nicotine levels. Vapes can also contain harmful chemicals similar to those found in weedkiller, nail polish remover, bug spray and cleaning products, and have been linked to lung disease and long-lasting damaging effects on the brain and physical development. If you are concerned about your mental health, contact headspace on 58521900 or call the Mental Health Line on 1800 011 511. If you want support to quit vaping or smoking, call the Quitline on 137 848.

Perry’s shirtfronted to Tradies’ breakfast

While Mark and Liz Meredith understand that nothing will erase the pain from the death of their son, Perry, they're taking strength from doing whatever they can to ensure no other Dubbo families have to go through that sort of suffering. PHOTOS: DUBBO PHOTO NEWS

By JOHN RYAN AMID the large crowds streaming into the Tradie breakfast at Ingenia Gardens to remember the life of Perry Meredith on Saturday morning, the hi-vis shirt worn by his dad, Mark, stood out. “I probably don’t fill it out as well as he did. I said to Liz last night that I was going to wear one of Pez’s shirts – this is all about him and all his mates and the trades of Dubbo and the community coming together in that regard so I wanted to put something on that had him here with us,” he told Dubbo Photo News. When Perry took his life in November 2016 the community grief was off-the-charts, his funeral and wake filled with friends desperately seeking answers to questions, wondering how they could have seen the signs, grief-stricken that they

didn’t get the chance to talk through any struggles Perry had been was facing. The Merediths are determined to do whatever they can so other families don’t have to go through that pain, and Mark said the number of people who attended the brekky provided them with so much cathartic relief. “Words can’t describe it. I guess it’s so rewarding to see the people around today. For a couple of years because of Covid we haven’t been able to do the Tradies Brekky on behalf of Pez and Livin’,” he said. “It’s just getting those tradies together, checking on each other, having a yarn, seeing where we are and what we’re doing, (making sure) everyone is going okay. “It ‘aint weak to speak” – just start that conversation. “It’s just checking up with your friends, your mates, your family,

people you might have seen yesterday but in 24 hours things can happen and it just might be that opening conversation or that pat on the shoulder and the hugs that I’ve seen this morning.” Johno Aird was a long-time workmate of Perry’s, he was stationed at one of the barbecues making sure the eggs were cooked to perfection for his mate. “It’s important to me, I worked with Perry for seven-odd years so he was a big part of my life. Anything I can do to help him and his family out, I’m happy to do and if this can help out anyone who’s got some struggles (I’m) keen to do it,” Mr Aird said. “It’s massively important that tradies and anyone else feels confident enough to talk to other people about any problems they’re having, to have somewhere to go and someone to talk to just takes the pressure off.”

The fundraiser featured raffles with donated prizes and other goodies and the Ingenia Gardens’ residents had set up tables showcasing all the treats such as scones, cakes and craftwork for sale, with all the proceeds from the event going towards Livin’, an organisation with the motto “It ain’t weak to speak” which raises awareness for mental health and suicide prevention initiatives. “It’s all come together today and wonderful thanks goes to Pip and Phil and the residents of Ingenia Gardens, they love being involved with their bric’a’brac and arts and crafts,” Mr Meredith said. The event raised $6460. z If you, or someone you know, is struggling and needs support, help is available. Call Lifeline on 13 11 14, or contact the NSW Mental Health Line on 1899 011 511

Dubbo Photo News March 31-April 6, 2022 Mark Meredith was full of praise for Ingenia Gardens' manager Pip Downey for organising the event. "Perry was my go-to tradie and a good mate and all the residents loved him, and they love helping out in this way to not only remember Pez, but also to prevent this from happening to anyone else," she said.

Tradies need a solid smoko and Johno Aird, who worked with Perry for seven years, was happy to pitch in to create plenty of mouth-watering egg and bacon rolls. Glenn and Donna Murphy had a chat to Sonyia Bernie at the Tradies' brekky.

A century through magic By TIJANA BIRDJAN EXPLORE the magical forest alongside Hannah, as she grows up surrounded by magic in the Goonoo Forest. Dubbo author Pat Clarke released her eighth book, Tales from the Magic Forest, in early March and hopes to publish the sequel later this year. As this story focuses on a young girl being the subject, Mrs Clarke dedicated the book to her great-granddaughter in the hopes she will read the story in the years to come. She notes this story is different from her other works as she has never had a person as the focal point, she continues explaining that the magical animals were the leading characters in her previous books. Providing a synopsis of the story, she describes Hannah as a girl who has a strong belief in fairies with hopes of meeting them, but instead she meets a magical emu. With a curiosity stemming from her fascination with fairies, Han-

nah continues to explore her enchantment with the emu, meeting multiple magical animals along the way. Mrs Clarke shares that she kept Hannah’s devotion to her love of fairies by inviting her to a fairy tea party. The book is a collection of tales set in the past century, with her sequel set during the modern day era and according to Mrs Clarke, the two books are designed to be read together, with Hannah’s grandchildren hoping to meet the same magical animals about which their grandmother shares anecdotes. Debuting her writing career at age 70, Mrs Clarke says she never gravitated towards writing before, but she has always had a novel in her hands. “I don’t know why I started writing, I just did,” she laughs, saying now she has too many. Mrs Clarke tells Dubbo Photo News she does not have a set timeframe for how long this book took her to write – she penned a collection of stories over time and continuously adapted them.

Her illustrator Graeme Compton brought the book to life with his illustrations and Mrs Clarke said that since their first collaboration, A One-Eyed Chook Called Sheila, their work has grown together making each book unique through storytelling and illustrations. “I met Graeme by accident,” Mrs Clarke laughed, saying that she mentioned to a friend that she needed a cartoonist to collaborate with and someone introduced them.

At the time, Mr Compton was teaching piano with a passion for cartooning, not knowing they were about to commence a decade-long working relationship. Since working with Mrs Clarke, Mr Compton’s illustrations have led him to work with multiple children’s authors over the years. The book focuses on friendship and the prosperity of dreaming as “there is always magic in the forest – if you look for it, you’ll find it”.

Gym drops down low for a good cause By STEPH ALLEN FITNESS and charity have gone hand in hand at Stepz Fitness Dubbo, with the altruistic gym encouraging members to tackle fitness-based challenges to raise much needed funds for good causes. Over March, Stepz Fitness Dubbo held a 55 Squat Challenge – with 12 members signing on to squat to raise funds for the Breast Cancer Foundation. Manager Bodie Hannifey said his team had always wanted to do something to give back to the community. “We knew the Mud Run was coming up and we thought, ‘What else could we do that is a bit more community based?’” he

said. “One of the members found the Squat Challenge, where every day you do 55 squats. It can be at home or in the gym. “You don’t have to do it with a bar or weight, you

can do it with just body weights. “Then you promote yourself on your (social media) doing those 55 squats a day for a good cause, film or send photos and then mark it off each

day as completed.” As of March 25, $301 had been raised through the challenge, with all donations going directly to the Breast Cancer Foundation. Mr Hannifey said he was now planning for fu-

Teacher shortage: Covid problem or Coalition issue? Continued from page 3

1.2 FTE are the new Assistant Principal Curriculum and Instruction positions”. “This is down from 47.8 vacant positions compared with December 2021. “In 2021, there were 73 teachers appointed to schools in the Dubbo electorate.” Tim Danaher says the Department of Education figures show there were 55 vacant permanent teaching positions across the Dubbo network and the feedback from teachers across the electorate included reports of severe, ongoing difficulties in securing casual teachers to replace absent colleagues and difficulty in filling the vacant permanent positions. “(Dubbo MP Dugald Saunders) has played these down by saying it’s only one or two in each school but this is not taking into account the impact that this has on each class which potentially has 30 students,” he said. “When teachers and workplaces have raised their concerns (numerous times) with Mr Saunders about the impact of the shortages, they have been dismissed and the impact on students in his electorate has also been dismissed.” The Federation also ques-

tioned Mr Saunders on comments he’d made during various radio interviews which they claim were disrespectful and dismissive of teacher welfare: “There’s job shortages across every sector”, “As I say mate, I’m focused on other things at the moment”, ’‘(Government) has unique and innovative ways of attracting teachers that are working really well” and “Huge numbers of teacher coming from overseas and interstate”. The Federation conceded these quotes were in a context of radio interviews, for instance the “I’m focused on other things at the mo-

dents missing opportunity and this is affecting them right now, and this failure on behalf of Dugald and his government will continue to affect our students long into the future. “When you can’t attract teachers to come to Dubbo, which is a hub with all of the services needed, then you know that the system is broken.” The Teachers’ Federation was also concerned that so many government MPs with children had them educated at elite private schools, so didn’t have any skin in the game when it comes to public education.

ment” was in a radio interview while Mr Saunders was at Sydney Airport waiting to board a plane to fly up and inspect flood damage at Lismore. But Tim Danaher is unrepentant and has this simple question: “What can be more important than ensuring our kids have teachers in front of them, qualified teachers to give them every chance of success in life? There may be shortages in every sector but shouldn’t the Government (and Dugald) be prioritising education? “We are talking about a whole generation of stu-

TO support schools across NSW in managing staffing impacts related to COVID-19, the department has published guidelines for the back-filling of staff, which include the use of the casual teaching workforce. Contingency arrangements include teachers from nearby schools and the use of department accredited staff in non-teaching roles where other avenues of staffing have been exhausted. All teachers employed in NSW public schools are qualified to teach. As of March 14, more than 350 corporate staff accredited to teach have been deployed into schools and 1799 final year students have been granted interim teaching approval for casual and temporary teaching. School principals can also encourage part-time teachers to take on fulltime work. The department has contacted more than 1400 teachers who have retired over the past two years to consider casual or temporary work. In January and

February, 297 of retired teachers contacted have been paid as a casual teacher and a further 54 paid as a short-term temporary employee. Almost 8,000 additional staff are also being engaged to deliver our COVID intensive learning support program, and we acknowledge the impact that this has had on our casual pools. We are working on a number of initiatives to deliver a sustainable supply of quality teachers, including in critical subjects and locations. This includes a campaign to bring more than 500 qualified STEM teachers from other countries and states to boost teacher numbers in NSW public schools. The Government is on track to deliver its 2019 commitment to recruit an additional 4,600 teachers over four years. Vacancy rates remain low for a sector of our size. The Department has filled more than 6,400 teaching positions last year, and since 2017 it has appointed more than 26,000 teachers.

Sign of the times: TAFE Dubbo operating as Auslan hub Dubbo pets need vets

By STEPH ALLEN TAFE DUBBO has cemented itself as a leader in Auslan learning after it was announced that it would become the first in the state to receive the Specialist Auslan Teacher Connecting Learning Point. The new Learning Point will be equipped with custom-built technology and accessibility software designed to respond to the specific practical training needs of Auslan teachers and the learning needs of students. Member for Dubbo Dugald Saunders said the service would be operated out of the TAFE’s Connected Learning Spaces with the first Auslan and Dubbo-based teacher, Veronica Bengough. “It’s a really great opportunity to deliver great courses like Auslan which until this point have been delivered face to face,” Mr Saunders said. “Albeit we don’t have many teachers in this part of the world, so to be able to tap into Veronica’s expertise and deliver this on a broader scale is an exciting step forward. “We’ve seen some exciting technology to deliver these types of courses like maybe different camera angles and the different ability show specific details of things. “We’ve seen examples of how that looks and also a more standard operation with a large screen and more ability to do a more broadcast style of presentation. The technology will also feature interpretation, with an interpreter able to listen in and inter-

pret on a larger scale. “Connecting communities and learning is what this is all about,” Mr Saunders said. The specialist teaching facility will be operational from semester two, with the Auslan skillset delivered across 20 Connected Learning Centres in NSW to provide critical pathways into additional qualifications and career prospects. “The new equipment will ensure students graduate with the confidence and practical knowl-

edge to begin work immediately, while the new Specialist Auslan teaching facility represents a new way of providing signing skills to learners across the state,” Mr Saunders said. “Our local TAFE is crucial in ensuring people have the skills to future-proof our workforce and help the Orana economy bounce back from the impacts of the pandemic.” Minister for Skills and Training Alister Henskens said the last two years had shown the importance

of Auslan interpreters in times of crisis. “To be able to start teaching Auslan interpretation here from Dubbo all around the state, so it’s not reliant on face to face...is incredibly important,” he said. “There’s no doubt that the pandemic has accelerated the delivery of online teaching. “It was certainly always in the pipeline that we’d be doing this. “This is going to accelerate the number of certified Auslan teachers.”

DUBBO pet owners will be pleased to hear the Australian Veterinary Association (AVA) is advocating for the Federal Government to invest $13.6m over five years to encourage graduate vets stay in rural and regional areas. By increasing placement incentives in Dubbo and other regional areas, graduates will be able to overturn the shortage crisis of rural veterinarians. The Rural Bonding Scheme proposed by the AVA encourages providing financial incentives to work rurally, HECs debt forgiveness for graduates working in regional areas, proposals similar to medical graduates and addressing the workforce shortage crisis faced in regional Australia. AVA head of Veterinary and Public Affairs Dr Cristy Secombe said veterinary practises across the country are struggling to find graduate vets, especially in remote communities. “Without veterinarians in rural and remote areas – including Australia’s borders – the risk of serious and deadly diseases infecting animals and, in some cases the human population, is dramatically increased,” Dr Secombe said. “We only need to look at the recent Japanese Encephalitis Virus outbreak and high risk of Lumpy Skin Disease entering Australia to reiterate the importance of strong biosecurity, and veterinarians are part of a strong biosecurity network,” Dr Secombe acknowledged.

THE Australian Army Cadets (AAC) is a youth military program designed to provide greater opportunity to educate participants with team building and courage. Lieutenant Mark Mulheron said there are currently 32 members of all ranks in the AAC in Dubbo, with the cadet program expanding. The program is for participants aged 1319 with weekly parades commencing at 5.45pm on Wednesday. “The parades are a really great space for the cadets to progress and prosper in their leadership and teamwork capabilities,” Mr Mulheron continued, saying participants learn self-discipline, respect, and courage. Cadets build bridges out of logs, learn drill techniques, how to apply camouflage paint and other activities, and there are also camps held four times a year along with an annual field day with participants from all over NSW receiving professional military training and courtesies.

“Everyone always looks forward to the field days as they learn military practises and get real experience of what it is like,” he shared, explaining there are high expectations of the cadets as most of them continue to work in the army, navy or air force. Mr Mulheron told Dubbo Photo News participants are expected to undertake theory to earn rankings and credentials. “We encourage our cadets to do the most they can, and we teach practices of dressing, hygiene and how to present themselves,” he shared, adding that staff get a lot out of the program as they see the cadets grow and flourish as people. “Lots of the cadets start from the age of 13 and don’t leave until they are classed as adults,” he explained that the program has been running for more than 100 years and is very successful among the participants. For more information about the program, please contact Mark Mulheron on 0488471530

RAIN-POSTPONED CHARITY RIDE ON THIS SUNDAY By JOHN RYAN

Despite the charity day being called off due to last Sunday’s pouring rain, members from the Central West Riders got together for a photoshoot to let locals know the event is back on and will be staged this Sunday, April 3. PHOTO: DUBBO PHOTO NEWS/KEN SMITH

DOWNPOURS from the sky forced the postponement of Central West Rider’s charity ride last weekend but organiser Darrell Harvey says that’s made the members more determined than ever to ensure they can swing community support behind their mate Jason Williams, who’s suffering from early onset Parkinson’s Disease. The new date is this Sunday, April 3, and the details and timings are exactly the same as those set down for the original event. The charity day begins at Devil's Hollow Brewery at 10am and ends up at Wongarbon’s Ploughman’s Rest Tavern at 2pm with a car/motorcycle show and shine with trophies in 10 categories. There will also be an auction and music by local band Still Thinkin' and other fundraising activities. The cost for the ride/drive is $30 which includes entry and a ride patch. For those wanting to show their car or bike the cost is $10 and the gates open for the show only vehicle's at 1pm where general entry is

by gold coin donation, and families are encouraged to come along. Darrell Harvey’s comments hit a chord with many readers of Dubbo Photo News when he said the club wasn’t aiming to solve all the problems in the world, but rather work on a few things they can do which will make a profound positive difference to people in need closer to home. “We think that at a time like this this Jason and his family should be able to concentrate on being a family not worry about finances. We know we can't raise all the money they need but every cent will help,” Mr Harvey said. “But we can step up and help where we can – $20 isn't very much these days but if 1000 people donated that we'd have $20,000 and that could change this family’s life. “We send the community of Dubbo and our supporting business houses our heartfelt thanks for the help they have given us and if anyone would like to donate a item for the auction or some money but can't be at the day on April 3 they can contact Donna on 0499750055 or Darrel on 0466048916."

Taming the strip By TIJANA BIRDJAN THE residents on Glenabbey Drive have shared their disappointment regarding the upkeep of the front of their properties over the past few months. Dubbo Regional Council has provided limited responses, proposing residents are to maintain their own nature strips in front of private properties. Resident Kevin Borrar said it is impossible to maintain the nature strip as there as rocks and mesh under the weeds. “It gets extremely dangerous during rain fall as the rocks go into the driveway and crack the pavement,” said Mr Borrar, who recently had two knee replacements and is unable to lift rocks out of the nature strip due to injury. Residents have contacted council regarding the maintenance of the strips, however, DRC Mayor, Mathew Dickerson told Dubbo Photo News last week that council does not have budget and resources to maintain nature strips. Mr Borrar shared that because of the gradient of the road, the rocks

gradually fall and end up in a pit at the bottom of the road. “The rocks are creating a hazardous environment for the street because most of the residents are older,” he continued, saying somebody will get hurt in the near future. “Glenabbey Drive is poorly maintained as there are no footpaths, curbs or street lights either,” he said, adding that when children walk to the bus stop in the morning they are required to walk on the road. Another resident impacted by the nature strips, Heath Busch, agreed that the maintenance should be at the expense of the developers. Mr Busch shared that council is currently cleaning up drainage systems at rate payers' expense because of the lack of future planning, he said that it was an “easy money grab for council with no thought about infrastructure for the future”. He pointed to the the dangers of the rocks clogging up the drainage system causing a lack of water pressure, and said the unkempt system can result in fires if not maintained.

Dubbo Flashmob rocks the reef By JOHN RYAN

SONYA Warwick’s 50th birthday has become a viral sensation with plenty of Dubboites wishing they’d been there to share in the celebrations – whether they know Sonya or not. The Hamilton Island getaway for a group for 24 friends and family members was underpinned by best mate Kerrie Monk’s hilarious surprise. Utilising Jazmyn Haksteeg’s dance expertise, everyone from Dubbo met for Flashmob rehearsals every week for a month before the big trip to practise for Sonya’s biggest ever birthday surprise. Friend Lynda Haksteeg said all that hard work paid off. “Sonya was absolutely in tears and it was her best present,” she told Dubbo Photo News. “We all dressed in white to set the scene and we were booked at an exclusive house on Hamilton island, so we were all staying together. “People came from Dubbo, Wollongong, Cronulla, Newcastle and the Central Coast – we also did encores throughout the day.” Trent Monk deserves a special mention, the wellSonya Warwick had the best birthday present ever when her friends surprised her with a Flashmob perknown Dubbo glazier formance on the grassed terrace of the magnificent Hamilton Island holiday home the group rented for kicking off the Flashmob the occasion.

MINING FOR TALENT

Demand for more women working in mines By STEPH ALLEN AS mining employment continues to surge across the state, more women than ever before are joining the industry to provide sought after skills for in demand employment. Record high levels of women in the mines has seen a rise from 19 per cent in November 2021 to 21 per cent in February 2022. Tomingley Gold Operations HR manager Belinda Hollingworth said the Alkane-owned mining operation had been trying to tap into a more gender diverse employment pool, but had been struggling to attract applications from women for its underground operations. “We’re just not getting as many applications as we would like. In saying that, we’ve tripled our numbers of underground mining. Most of our mining is underground at the moment but we do expect that when we extend our open-cut, which will happen in 18 months, we will employ more women,” she said. “There are not as many women who want to work underground.” While there is no definitive reason as to why women are more attracted to open-cut positions than underground, issues such as gender discrimination have become less prevalent and miners are able to go above ground to access amenities. “It’s a passion of mine to in-

crease the female participation in our workforce,” Ms Hollingworth said. “We will absolutely be targeting female operators with the trucks because they’re very good operators... they’re less gun-ho and generally have good spatial awareness and seem to have less incidents of hitting walls and that sort of thing. “Women bring a different perspective. They might be able to look at a job from a different point of view. Sometimes they’re more analytical and can find another way to do a job because sometimes they don’t have as much physical strength. “At the moment we are doing up (and expanding) all of our female bathrooms in the expectation of getting more women.” Minerals Council of Australia CEO Tania Constable said the combination of strong demand and need for advanced skills has seen direct employment in Australian mines reach a record high of over 274,000 – up 25,000 in the past 12 months. “Mining has helped sustain the economy and the budget throughout the pandemic and continues to prepare for the demands of the future world – high tech and lower emissions. The strong labour market has resulted in labour and skills shortages,” she said. “To sustain the economic recovery, the MCA calls on the govern-

ment to increase investment in skills and training. “Mining has supported more than 5000 new apprenticeships in the last 12 months.

“The Boosting Apprenticeship Commencements program has been instrumental to increasing apprenticeships in the mining supply chain.

Ms Constable said she was hoping this week’s Federal Budget would support the continuation of the program “to support even more apprenticeships”.

Hear your heart out By TIJANA BIRDJAN NEW to the position of media officer, Chris Mathieson joined the Hear Our Heart Ear Bus Project as his son suffered from hearing troubles. Established in 2014, the bus project is a Dubbo-based organisation which provides free ear health education and hearing testing with accessibly to ear specialists to children in Dubbo and surroundings. Mr Mathieson said he is ecstatic to work for the non-for-profit organisation as he shares a passion of finding treatment for the children with hearing and ear issues. “I really feel for the children who experience these struggles as it often does go undiagnosed for a period of time,” he said, adding that this bus project is the only organisation offering free hearing testing in Dubbo. Working as a media officer, Mr

Mathieson can utilise his decades of experience in radio and social media platforms to deliver a fresh media space for the Hear Our Heart Project. He also runs a media company specialising in helping small businesses in various media outlets, and explained that the volunteer run organisation needed someone who understood the media realm

to promote greater awareness of what the project offers. “The project is vital in the Central West as the van travels through school providing an opportunity for education and testing,” he said. The van has an on-site audiologist and can further refer students to specialists if required. Students will also partake in

specialised lessons, like demonstrating how to blow their noses properly, explaining where hearing loss originates from and additional treatment methods.

ear health and hearing loss prevention strategies by providing age appropriate ear health education for all students, staff and community members.

“We also want to make it known that the bus is not funded by the government and heavily relies on donations and grants,” Mr Mathieson said, adding that program is extremely committed to sharing

Over the eight years the bus has been in operation, more than 8000 hearing tests have been conducted, 250 children have proceeded with ear surgery and 25 children obtain hearing aids.

From volunteer to employee of the year By TIJANA BIRDJAN

MOST people are counting down the days until they retire and that is exactly what Yvonne Dodd did – until she embarked on a further seven-year position at the Australian Red Cross. After her “gap year”, Ms Dodd applied for a volunteering admin position at Australian Red Cross’ Dubbo branch where she was offered a paid position to accompany her skill set. She worked three days a week in her new role as an administration officer, in that time relocated the Australian Red Cross office to Darling Street. Moving was a difficult process, but Ms Dodd said it all worked out “really well in the end, now we’ve found a place that is much more ‘Red Crossy’ than we were ever in”. She shared an anecdote explaining that the current centre was the last place the real estate took her and as soon as she put her keys in the door, she knew it was a new home for the organisation. “I didn’t even have to walk down the hall,” she said, shar-

ing that she brought the rest of the team to the new facility and quickly signed the form agreements. Reflecting to her time, Ms Dodd laughed that she only mentally committed a year to the administrative position, but she could not leave her colleagues and the work she was doing for the community. It has been “extremely difficult” during Covid with Australian Red Cross struggling to move forward, whereas now the organisation has reached a comfortable stage of recovery. Throughout her seven-year journey working for Australian Red Cross, Ms Dodd expressed that her favourite memory was her collaboration with the Let’s Talk committee, a specialised droughty program which raises donations and help those who live in seasonally challenged areas. “It will be incredibly hard to walk away from Let’s Talk – as I will no longer be a staff member, I am unable to continue my role on the committee,” she shared, adding that not many staff who work in admin get the opportunity to join com-

mittees, so she was extremely grateful for the experience. “I have met some amazing people over the years through this program, shared their journey and I feel honoured to have had the involvement for so many years.” Being a national organisation, Ms Dodd has built strong relationships with people she has never met. With main branches in Sydney, she has had to collaborate her ideas with members over social media platforms and tele-services. “It is so strange to me that I worked very closely with some people I’ve never met,” she continued, saying that a lot of services run from a distance, but it does not make saying goodbye any easier. She’s committed to staying in contact with her colleagues and will continue to volunteer for the organisation and told Dubbo Photo News she will continue as an admin volunteer, having already applied as an emergency services volunteer. “I have always been a community person and look forward to staying in touch.”

Disgraceful behaviour, no humanity I KNOW there are many underlying reasons people commit crime and I’m sympathetic to the fact that as a society, we’re not doing a great job in so many areas, but there are no excuses for some of the behaviour that’s been going on around Dubbo of late. For years we’ve had kind-hearted people devoting their time to man the PCYC catering van and the money they make goes into good works in the community, often for those kids who are doing it the toughest. So it makes my blood boil when scumbags smash their way into the van, ransack it and do a heap of damage on the way out with their ill-gotten gains – for all sorts of reasons this just isn’t anywhere near acceptable behaviour. I’m going to personally fly Will Smith over to Dubbo to slap you around the ears. If anyone who’s reading this knows who the perpetrators are, dob them in or you’re as bad as they are. It’s time the community as a whole stood up to these people who are wrecking things for everyone else.

But wait, there’s more MOST people have heard about the Black Dog Dubbo One Dayer ride and all the money that event raises for mental health research and support, but maybe you haven’t heard the yarn about the pieces of human flotsam and jetsam that stole a couple of the banners belonging to this charity. Initially some people thought it was a prank but as at the time of our deadline, the banners are still nowhere to be seen. I hope whoever took them chokes on them.

Two banners highlighting the local Black Dog charity ride for mental health were stolen after this year's One Dayer event, leaving organisers and supporters gutted, and fuming that people could be so heartless they'd steal from volunteers who are trying to help others in the community.

Four-wheeler on footbridge amongst bikes, prams, kids

at night. Do it in an open area and it’s your own stupid neck – do it in a built-up urban area and you’re putting the lives of innocent people at risk. Anyway, police are aware of the growing unregistered trail bike issues in Dubbo and are currently working with the community and exploring other avenues of enforcement to deal with the issue. So anyone with information about the unregistered trail bikes, the owners or thieves’ identities or locations, please get on the blower to Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000 or https://nsw.crimestoppers. com.au

SOCIAL media lit up last weekend after photos and vision was posted of a bloke riding a four-wheeler along the Tamworth Street footbridge – you know, that bridge where there’s a lot of foot traffic, prams and cyclists who, we like to think, are considerate of and give way to pedestrians and parents pushing their bubs along. Incredibly, people were defending this four-wheeler bloke’s actions on social media.

Motorbike stolen AROUND about 1:15am last Saturday morning (March 26) Dubbo City Motorcycles was broken into and a 2021 KTM 300 EXC TPI was stolen. The owners have supplied police with CCTV footage and a description of what the three males

were wearing. Alleged offender #1 was wearing a red Champion hoodie, grey sweatpants, orange/black/red Nike Tn shoes, black under armour gloves and a black cap with label on the brim. Alleged offender #2 was wearing a black Nike hoodie complete with a gold logo on sleeve – wow! The flashily dressed alleged crim was wearing pants, black Ellesse sweatpants with a logo on the front left thigh, grey Nike shoes and a black cap. Alleged Offender #3 paraded in a black/white marble hoodie, sporting a Tupac/thug life text logo on front and back of hoodie. As well as the tough-guy hoodie he was wearing black sweatpants, a red bandanna under the hoodie (must fancy himself as a Outback Pirate), black shoes and grey gloves. If you have any information please get in contact with Dubbo Police.

Narromine crash THERE was a pretty astonishing crash near the near Narromine Hotel on the night of March 23. Three persons were trapped in the vehicle when it came to rest lying on its side, all three were released by Fire and Rescue NSW firefighters. Unbelievably, there was a Ute T-boned by a B-double at the same time on the Manildra Street/ Mitchell Highway intersection but luckily there were no injuries. Firies spent the rest of the evening cleaning up a heap of oil

on the road after they’d sorted the first “persons trapped” incident. It was a busy night, and why we’re so lucky to have such dedicated emergency services personnel in this region.

Chopper medical dash AND it’s so good to have our own rescue Medivac chopper based here. Overnight on March 28/29 the Westpac Rescue Helicopter was tasked on a urgent Inter Hospital Retrieval from the Coonabarabran Hospital to Dubbo Hospital for a 77-year-old suffering a serious medical condition. The male patient was stabilised at Coonabarabran by the Helicopter Critical Care Medical Team prior to being flown directly to Dubbo where he will undergo further specialist treatment.  Send your news tips to john.ryan@panscott.com.au or 0429 452 245 txt is best

Dubbo council reacts to one-off variation rate COUNCIL WATCH By STEPH ALLEN A SPECIAL one-off rate variation for planned infrastructure and community services has been rolled out across NSW councils. After the strain of bushfires, floods and the Covid-19 pandemic, many councils received another blow late last year when Independent Pricing and Regulatory Tribunal (IPART) handed down an historic low 0.7 per cent baseline rate peg, despite “surging inflation, soaring fuel and other commodity prices”, as well as a mandated wage rise for staff. Dubbo Regional Council CEO Murray Wood said council acknowledged Local Government Minister Wendy Tuckerman’s announcement that 0.7 per cent for rate peg increase did not “reflect the experience of councils broadly in terms of increasing costs such as insurances, materials and so on”. “In regard to Dubbo Regional Council (DRC), an increase of budget by 0.7 per cent would require a reduction in capital works and maintenance activities across the LGA,” Mr Wood said. “That would be a decision of council with public consultation to identify and establish where those reductions would be applied. “Councillors will consider the new and one-off IPART methodology as part of a workshop on budget matters.

“Ultimately, a decision will be made as part of formal consideration at council meetings concerning the draft budget, and subsequent placement of the proposed decision on public display for feedback from the community.” Local Government NSW (LGNSW) President Darriea Turley said the 0.7 per cent baseline rate peg had forced councils to look at recasting their budgets, scrap planned infrastructure projects and consider service and job cuts just to stay afloat. “The announcement came as a

massive kick in the guts to councils already working so hard to help their communities recover from the events of the past two years,” Cr Turley said. “The financial hit was particularly tough news for councils in regional and rural areas, who are often the largest employer in town and inextricably linked to the health of their local economies. “Choosing between cuts to jobs or roads maintenance, parks, libraries and other community services would put these local econ-

omies at significant risk at the worst possible time.” Minister Tuckerman told an Estimates Committee of the NSW Parliament that councils would have almost two months to apply to IPART for a special one-off rate variation, provided they could show the funding was critical to commence planned work identified in last year’s financial planning process. The one-off variation could exceed the 0.7 per cent rate peg, but would still be capped at a maximum of 2.5 per cent. “The opportunity to increase rates by up to 2.5 per cent is still less than inflation, but it is in line with what councils expected when they finalised their budget, work planning and community consultation process last year,” Cr Turley said. “That process was undertaken very soberly and responsibly, to allow councils to continue to help drive a locally led economic recovery while minimising the impact of rates rises on individuals. “The last thing we want as we emerge from the pandemic is to send our regional and rural communities into a downward spiral from which they cannot recover.” IPART is also undertaking a broader review of its rate peg methodology, including the Local Government Cost Index, to prevent a reoccurrence of the 202223 anomaly. Council applications for the special one-off variation will close on 29 April, and decisions are expected by June 21.

Dubbo youth set to BackTrack

AT-RISK youth across the west and far west, including in Dubbo, will be further supported to increase their opportunity of getting their lives back on track contributed by $1.48m in Federal Government funding for BackTrack Network. In announcing the funding, Federal Member for Parkes Mark Coulton said all youth deserve to feel safe with the chance to achieve their full potential. BackTrack Network provides the opportunity for at-risk youth to learn life skills and educate them with training facilities to ensure are confident to secure employment. The funding will be split between the BackTrack Network, providing educational, training, diversionary and community engagement activities to participants of Making Tracks Broken Hill, LeaderLife Dubbo, Down the Track Lake Cargelligo and FlatTrack Moree. “I’m a big supporter of each of these organisations which are doing a great job to improve the lives of young people,” Mr Coulton said. FlatTrack program manager Krist Grasnick said that the increased funding will have more young people work in programs within the community and participate in diversionary camps. “Presently, with limited transport options and limited staffing and resources, it can be quite a juggling act to keep the programs moving on a day to day-to-basis”, Mr Grasnick said. Mr Grasnick said that youth have faced challenges over the pandemic with a sense of social isolation and disconnection.

South Coast MP faces criminal charges

HANGING 10 IN DUBBO THERE’S been plenty of unsettled meterological conditions in Dubbo these past few months so it’s great to see enterprising locals make the most out of what the weather-Gods have on offer. Rory Collins and his mate Charlie Sutton decided that if the surface water was going to come to them, they wouldn’t waste it. Dubbo Photo News snapper Ken Smith couldn’t resist capturing their antics for our pages. “Stylish, good fun,” Ken said. “After a recent late afternoon storm (and we have had a few lately), locals Rory and Charlie took to the water with style. “It was great to watch and fun to photograph.”

THE Member for Kiama Gareth Ward – who visited Dubbo in his former role as minister for families, communities and disability services – faces three counts of assault with acts of indecency, and one count each of common assault and sexual intercourse without consent. Ward has denied the charges and says he looks forward to proving his innocence in court but NSW Premier Dominic Perrottet, the leader of the state’s Liberal Party, said he had attempted to contact the Kiama MP to seek his resignation from the Parliament with immediate effect. “Should Mr Ward not resign, the Government will move a motion to remove him from the Parliament,” he said. “I have also written to the State Director of the Liberal Party requesting that Mr Ward be suspended from the Party pending the outcome of the criminal trial against him. “Mr Ward is entitled to defend himself against the serious charges against him but he must do that as a private citizen.”

IT’S A RECORD! 

Council divisions restructured By BROOKE JACOBSON

DUBBO Regional Council (DRC) has voted to adopt a new senior staffing structure aimed at improving community engagement. Council CEO, Murray Wood, tabled the proposed structure at last week’s meeting. He said the development of the new structure was a legislative requirement under the Local Government Act, requiring councils to review and determine a structure of the organisation within

12 months from the formation of a new council. “There is no denying our council and our community have been through a lot of uncertainty in recent years, and a result we have identified a disconnect between the organisation and the people we proudly serve,” Mr Wood said. “Our team at DRC have a history of being resilient and dedicated to their community, but with a change of leadership, both in my role as CEO and at a council level, there is an opportunity

to pause, and realign our focus in order to deliver our essential services to the best of our ability.” DRC will continue to run with five directors, with the following senior staff positions adopted:  Director Organisational Performance  Director Strategy, Partnerships and Engagement  Director Development and Environment  Director Infrastructure  Director Community, Culture and Places Mr Wood said the new Strategy, Engagement and Partnerships Division

would focus on “community and customer engagement”. “My aim with creating this new division is to ensure that our residents, businesses owners, community groups and the like are at the forefront of every decision council makes, whether that be at a councillor level or operationally,” he said. “My senior staff and I have done a lot behind the scenes to get this right. “We have used staff surveys and worked with industry-leading advisories to inform, develop, and

design the new structure. “From this work, we could clearly see the shared vision and sentiment across staff, senior leadership, and our newly elected body. “The consistent takeaway is that we want to improve and invest in the relationship we have with our community – externally and internally. “We want to provide the best service for our community so as to make the region we all work, rest and play in an enjoyable place to live in.”

Douglas Smith, from Hertfordshire, UK, has broken the world record for the most tomatoes from a single stem/truss. In September 2021, whilst harvesting his tomato plants, Douglas discovered a single stem with 1269 cherry tomatoes on it! He broke his own record of 839, which he had achieved only a few weeks prior. The record before that was just 488 and had not been broken in over 10 years. “After breaking the UK record for the largest tomato in the UK in 2020, with a 3.106kg tomato, I sought a new challenge for 2021,” Douglas said when applying for this record. Douglas took an analytical approach to his tomato farming methods in order to become the best in the world. He studied various scientiﬁc papers and even took soil samples to be tested in a laboratory, which allowed him to tweak the formula until it was just right.

Dubbo’s house prices hike

WITH the way that Dubbo is expanding, more than eight out of ten residents believe housing values will continue to increase this year. LocalAgentFinder CEO Richard Stevens said that despite the price growth and increase of sales in 2021, Australians remain bullish on further growth in the short term. With an increase of employees preferring to work from home, 27 per cent of respondents have considered moving locations. “It is unsurprising that many Australians are thinking about selling, appointing real estate agents and considering lifestyle changes,” Mr Stevens said. “The extended periods of time people have spent working from home recently has offered more time with family and removed long commutes to the office for many.” More than 25 per cent of respondents said they were going to sell, believing that finding the right real estate agent was essential to get the best price. With COVID still a factor in the property market, it is unclear whether it will permanently change the dynamics in the future.

Woolly good investment for iconic industry By STEPH ALLEN THE shearing industry has received a boost with new funding set to purchase new equipment to help met a surge in industry demand. A NSW government investment of $45,000 will help purchase five new shearing machines and a wool press for the state’s leading training grounds, including new state-ofthe-art training equipment at TAFE Dubbo. Minister for Agriculture and Western NSW Dugald Saunders said the new equipment would set future shearers and wool handlers up for success with the latest skills. “The Covid-19 pandemic has caused and continues to cause disruptions to many agricultural industries in NSW.

Wellington’s Boot a hugely signiﬁcant event By GEOFF MANN

The Wellington Boot is far more than a horse race, it's an event that brings the entire town together to show the pride locals have in their community, and it's a massive money-spinner for the local economy as well. Organisers say it'll be back on, bigger and better than ever.

FROM Johnny Zero’s win in the inaugural Boot 41 years ago, the Wellington track has kickstarted some wonderful racing careers. The two day carnival has moved around the calendar and days over the years but no matter when it has been run it has electrified the town at the foot of Mount Arthur and on the banks of the Macquarie and Bell Rivers. Up to three thousand were expected to attend Sunday’s Boot and Town Plate before rain caused the meeting to be rescheduled for Tuesday. Sadly, the rain persisted and with the welfare of animals and riders paramount, stewards were had to again postpone to a date to be fixed.

The Wellington Boot is not just a race meeting, it is an event. A carnival which brings Sydney trainers and jockeys across the sandstone curtain to the green slopes and gushing smiles of the west. Hospitality venues, retailers and accommodation providers enjoy the fruits of a combined Wellington and now Dubbo Regional Council tourism campaign driven by the local Turf Club and its passionate volunteers. Community and service clubs benefit, families use the carnival for reunions – especially longed for after the pandemic and its turmoil in recent years – and significant occasions like weddings, engagements and romance have been known to occur under the

green shaded tree-lined canopy and under colourful marquees that spread along the straight. Music, novelty promotions and the ever-popular Best Dressed sections attract huge interest. Local fashion retailers make special efforts for those who wish to style-up but it is just as acceptable to be seen ringside in a Wellington Redbacks or Cowboys guernsey. The Boot may not have run this year – so far – but is indelibly inked onto the pages of local folklore, heralded by the sounds of legendary race caller Col Hodges. “Hear Ye, Hear Ye, the Boot will be back in Wellington” and when it is, rock up and experience the unique sights and sounds of country racing.

Did it come as a surprise? It was a huge surprise! The diversity and success of all the finalists was outstanding. The women from across NSW are all contributing to causes that will improve so many lives. I feel very lucky to have been chosen amongst them. How do you best describe PharmOnline? PharmOnline is the first pharmacist-led telehealth service in Australia. We aim to offer 24/7 access to video and phone consultations with pharmacists where it suits you. We have an experienced team of pharmacists located across the country to help you with your medication questions, to diagnose common ailments, to triage and refer you back to local health services where appropriate.

How did you come up with that concept? The concept first came about when I was a first-time mum. It can be a very overwhelming and anxious time. As a parent, you often think that there are things that are wrong with your baby and you often go to “Dr Google” for help. This can cause even more anxiety; it is far better to go to an experienced health professional for advice and support. When Covid-19 lockdowns hit, it became even more apparent that people needed this assistance at home, so I started up PharmOnline with the help of the University of New England Smart Region Incubator (UNE SRI). How difficult was it to get PharmOnline off the ground? It has been challenging. As a clinician, business and tech is not something I have been trained in, so I am learning all the time. I made sure I asked for help from colleagues, mentors and friends and then completed research myself to identify the best platform to use. Funding is an area that we are actively working on, to be able

to subsidise our service and make it more accessible to all. We are working with organisations that are keen to support their staff and

clients’ health and wellbeing and hope to expand this further. Where do you see it heading into the future? There are so many opportunities for PharmOnline in the private and public sectors. We are continually building and expanding our team to include pharmacists with specialities in particular health conditions. In the future, we may even expand into Asia, where Australian health professionals are highly valued. How much of a boost will this recognition give when it comes to highlighting the importance of these sorts of services to rural and remote communities? This recognition is wonderful for rural and remote communities. It demonstrates that our politicians are interested in new ways of supporting health care. It is critical to reduce the health gap between rural and metropolitan people. Tell us about growing up on the farm, what your hobbies and interests were. I grew up on Waratah – a 3500 acre organic and biodynamic broadacre farm at Peak Hill. It

was an idyllic childhood, with plenty of freedom but also responsibilities. My mum and dad are still there, raising merino sheep, poll Hereford cattle and grain crops. I always enjoyed helping with stock work and ended up winning the National Junior Merino Fleece judging at the Sydney Royal in 2005. This would be my dad’s influence as a TAFE qualified wool-classer. During school, I played a range of team sports, including cricket, netball, soccer and softball. I also volunteered on a number of committees locally. Where did you go to school? I completed all of my schooling at Peak Hill Central. Where did you go to university and why? I studied pharmacy at Charles Sturt University in Orange. It was important to me to remain in a rural area and the Orange campus has a strong focus on agriculture. I met my husband there – Mathew and I were in the same cohort in the pharmacy program. Tell us what sort of a role model your mum (Judi) was for you. Mum is a wonderful role model and has always demonstrated involvement in her local community. Volunteering and giving back have been strong values in our family. Mum is definitely my biggest supporter and cheer leader! How did you end up in Walcha? Mathew was offered a partnership in King’s Pharmacy at Walcha. We moved there in 2010, when I was working at Tamworth Hospital Pharmacy Department after completing my training at Parkes Pharmacy. Since then, I have worked at Armidale Hospital and now at the University of New England, teaching pharmacy, medicine and nursing students. We have two children, Evie and William, who are now at school in Armidale.

Election 2022 – it matters

❚ OPINION WILL there be a repeat of the ‘miracle’ election result of 2019 for Scott Morrison and his party? The polling indicates no, with Two Party Preferred polling at 54 per cent Labor and 44 per cent Liberal-National Parties (LNP). South Australian polling predicted a strong Labor victory and was vindicated in the recent state election. Prime Minister Morrison currently has the highest disapproval rating of his term in the job, with 55 per cent compared with Anthony Albanese’s of only 34 per cent. Given his cowardice and the public backlash for refusing to meet the wider community during his visit to flood-devastated Lismore, this disapproval rating seems fair. Will these numbers be running through Morrison’s head when he visits Government House this weekend to request the Governor General issue a writ for a May 14 or 21 election? I doubt it. He will be too busy praying for miracles, his daily focus as he recently told 60 Minutes, so much so that he claims to have worn out the carpet on his side of the bed. Perhaps there will be a tinge of regret for not calling the election last September when planned, and the polling was favourable. What is certain is that the Coalition has a lot of work to do to win and will have much help to do so. Morrison proved in the last election he is a very capable campaigner, when aided by the Murdoch and Nine Entertainment media empires. The Coalition revelled in reams of favourable coverage and concerted

smear campaigns against Bill Shorten and Labor. Having given up any pretext as balanced journalistic endeavours, these media outlets are already on the Coalition bandwagon. Morrison’s relationship with disgraced founder of the Hillsong Church, Brian Houston – whom Morrison claimed in his maiden speech to Parliament was a personal mentor – received no coverage. Bullying within the Coalition receives cursory coverage, while factional disputes in the Labor Party receive strident, repetitive examination. The ABC is not exempt from devolving to Labor-bashing either, with their flagship current affairs programmes Q&A and Insiders being far from paragons of balanced programming. And like the 2019 election, Clive Palmer will be throwing millions of dollars at keeping Labor from being elected. Palmer’s claim of fighting against both major parties is total nonsense, as the Coalition’s fossil

fuel friendly policies assist Clive’s wealth. Morrison will try to leverage this week’s Federal Budget into an election winning platform, as he claims to know the cost-of-living pressures affecting “working families”. Temporary relief of fuel excise, taxation cuts and bonuses to pensioners are all election sweeteners and will be heavily promoted as the Coalition being on your side. “Trust the Coalition to manage the economy better than Labor” will be repeated by rote up to election day. If we get around the witness protection program run by the media and examine the record of the Abbott experiment, the Turnbull disappointment, and the Morrison “miracle”, it is obvious the Coalition should not be rewarded with another term. Far from being the better economic managers, the Coalition has presided over years of mismanagement and incompetence. In 2013 the gross govern-

ment debt was $257 billion. This was derided by the Coalition in Opposition as “out of control”. Prior to the COVID pandemic just six years later, the debt racked up by the Coalition Government was $541 billion and 41 per cent of GDP. Gross government debt is now sitting at $950 billion, and all boasts of future surplus budgets have been abandoned. What did Australia receive for this budget blow out? A fully functioning and equitable NBN? No. Improved aged care, adequate supervising, and medical staffing? No. Adoption of the Gonski model to ensure equitable funding of public schools? No. Jobkeeper payments to non-eligible corporations? Yes. Billions on military projects like non-functioning fighter jets and obsolete tanks and submarines? Yes. Billions for consultancy company outsourcing to conduct the core functions of government? Yes.

OPINION & ANALYSIS The list could go on. Just as bad, this government has awarded government contracts to unqualified companies, prioritising community grants to Coalition-held and marginal seats, and paid hundreds of millions of dollars to for-profit companies to distribute COVID vaccines instead of the public pharmaceutical distribution system already paid for. The reasons the Coalition resists a Federal Independent Commission against Corruption are obvious. It is also obvious Morrison is not up to the task. He wants the job but not the work. The high-vis and hair washing photo ops show the depth of Morrison’s capacity. He wants for power in the real world and asks the divine to grant it for him. The character of Morrison is best summed up by his teary performance last week when announcing funding for endometriosis research. The tears were bought on by reminiscences of his wife’s suffering. Fair enough. But the funding announcement was a repeat of a funding announcement in 2020 (which remains unspent), which was a repeat of the funding announced in 2019 (which was unspent). He is all show and using his wife as a political prop is a low act. With the Morrison campaign bag of tricks being near empty this time, he is reduced to campaigning with national security warmongering and “trust” for the incumbent. Along with criticising Anthony Albanese’s weight loss as inauthentic, and labelling independents evil, this negative campaign is all he has in the absence of any positive achievements, and smacks of desperation. They are not a reason to award him another term in government. z Greg Smart lives and works in Dubbo, and is a keen observer of current affairs.

LETTERS & FEEDBACK

Money tree to pay for proposed bridge

The Editor, It must be that money grows on trees if the governments (state and federal) can see any value in the River Street Bridge. It disappoints me that Dubbo Regional Council seems to have thrown in the towel and conceded that the bridge was unstoppable. I have seen numerous letters etcetera, opposing the project with very good reason but not one credible letter supporting it. Would you be able to challenge the Dubbo community to come up with someone who can make this credible argument public? No point getting it from Saunders or Coulton as they are clearly political beings who are either incapable or unwilling to step outside party lines. Similarly, the bureaucrats in the RMS who are following instructions from these politicians.

community which we all come together to make. We had been wondering how we support locals at The Exchange when the idea of Boardrooms in The Bush was born. We envisioned businesses from all over bringing their teams together here in Dubbo. They stay in local motels, order from local caterers, buy local keepsakes, visit local attractions and even hire a local facilitator or guest speaker. You can see how one team meeting in town can send a few thousand dollars around the local economy and celebrate the community of Dubbo. We have a number of national corporates on track for a Boardroom in The Bush in Dubbo in ` 2022, but we are now looking inward to our own community here Supporting local is in Dubbo and asking the question: not a compromise, it’s can you hold your Boardroom in an investment in the The Bush? community which we all Not only is the answer “yes you come together to make... a can” but also there are so many

tions that travel from Sydney and Melbourne to perform here. The same goes for local businesses. If you want to retain our art gallery, vote with your feet by visiting and leaving a donation on your way out the door. If you want to retain our town pool, vote with your speedos and buy a season pass. And if you want to retain the Chamber of Commerce, the CWA, or The Exchange, buy a membership, turn up for a meeting, or book a co-working desk and meeting room. Supporting local is not a compromise, it’s an investment in the

benefits to investing in your team and your community in this way. With interactions limited to zoom over the past two years (yes, two years!) the team offsite can increase engagement, develop trusting relationships and productive teams. Local businesses that want to support local businesses can use their boardroom experience to not only bring their team together in a Covid-safe environment but breathe life into a combination of local businesses. From ordering local catering to inviting a local guest speaker or facilitator, heading out for a meal, getting together offsite, your team and your community will thank you for this immersive experience. It’s really about recognising and recommitting to local. Now is the time to stay, support and celebrate local. z Jillian Kilby is, among other things, the founder of The Exchange in Dubbo – a social impact organisation supporting regional communities.

Tokyo Ghoul: Live Action Film By AARON HILL TOKYO Ghoul is the live action adaptation of the anime and tells the story of Kaneki Ken who was just a normal shy guy who loves to read books. oks. He met a girl named Rize and fell in love but was devastated when he discovered she was actually a Ghoul, a species that feed on humans. After witnessing a Ghoul, all of Kaneki’s parts were switched around during the operation and as a result, not having to eat human food, but to eat humans. I loved the anime, it’s essentially my favourite show on par with Death Note and Attack on Titan. I’ve seen two seasons of Tokyo Ghoul, I haven’t gotten into other seasons just yet, I do have the DVDs, and I will get into them... So how was the movie? I can see Tokyo Ghoul fans enjoy themselves with this movie, es-

INSANITY STREAK

THE SPATS

pecially me, I thought pec it was an entertainiing movie, the acting was great, the story is great, the action was great. It a really wasn’t as bad r as I thought it would be... and just like the anime, it’s about as brutal as you can imagine. I like some of the CGI in this film, all of the effects were great, however I believe that Japan special effects still suffer from being too noticeable, which is distracting to me, compared to big budget American CGI like Marvel and DC films where it’s not so noticeable. In conclusion, this film really wasn’t as bad than I thought it would be. If you like anime live actions or Tokyo Ghoul as a series, I think you’ll have a good time, and I’m giving this one an 8/10. *Aaron Hill is a local Dubbo film-buff.

Thumbs Up to the Mud Run, what a great event it is!

Thumbs Up to Rod Fardell and the organising committee of the Titan Macquarie Mud Run, what a fantastic community day it was and how much fun for everyone involved.

George bank for the extreme lack of communication regarding the reopening of both banks. I went down there today with around 50 other people (March 24) who were waiting for hours for it to open. According to the sign out the front of the old Westpac building, it was going to reopen on the 22nd, but after numerous calls to both banks, both which didn’t have any local connections whatsoever that knew what was going on, (we) learned it wasn’t reopening until March 30. A lot of the people waiting at the bank were depending on this bank being open, more than half can’t connect to internet banking due to personal factors. This is not good enough. Shame on you, Westpac and St George.



Thumbs Up and well done for everyone who participated in this year’s Black Dog One Dayer. It was so good to see Tradies In Sight doing the catering out at Albert and maybe as a community we should discuss whether the funds from these collective Dubbo fundraising efforts should be donated, at least in part, to these very local organisations which would keep the beneﬁts here at home.

Thumbs Up to Bruno at Tradies In Sight. What this bloke does for people in Dubbo far outweighs any other single individual, yet the organisation receives almost no government funding. Our elected leaders and bureaucrats really don’t have the ﬁrst clue about what’s really important to Dubbo.



Thumbs Down to local businesses that don’t answer the phones or any inquiries via emails. It gets very annoying when you try to shop locally and can’t do so because of the inability for communication.



Thumbs Up to Renee and Jodie at Best and Less for great customer service.



Thumbs Down to the landlords who are exploiting the housing shortage and increasing their rents by unconscionable amounts. Some people who have been in the same accommodations for years and always been good tenants, have been forced out by exorbitant rent escalations. For some people, it seems no amount of money is ever enough.

Thumbs Down to the people on Facebook who hold found items ransom for a description. Hand it in to the police.



Thumbs Up to Dubbo Photo News for great coverage of our Heart Support CEO’s visit and informative information about our organisation locally. Tijana was a very professional journalist who put our members at ease while probing for information and Sally rounded things off with help in placing our advertisement. Great job team!

ON THE RAILS DUBBO Model Railway Club Inc secretary Bob Ehsman sent this photo to us of a few mates who have a long and shared history of involvement with the club. The club had its ﬁrst meeting in May/June 1979 and recently had several of the foundation members get together at the club. Tom Cooper and Eric van Vloten are foundation members whilst Bob Treseder and Mick Blewitt joined a month or two later. The get together was due to Eric’s visit from Holland, after his retirement as a train driver.

Walkinshaw replica is Jamie’s pride and joy By JOHN RYAN Jamie Carter has a similar story to many people who love taking their pride and joy down to Dubbo’s monthly Classic Cars and Coffee. Almost 20 years ago he sold his Walkinshaw Commodore and, just for the record, if he wanted to buy that car back these days the price tag would be more than $200,000. He’s been “making do” with his HQ Monaro big-block coupe done up in a patina’d rat rod style but always hankered back to his Walkinshaw, so he built his own from a VL Commodore that wasn’t in the best condition. “It was actually an old paddock-basher (and) I wanted to do a Walkinshaw replica so I decided that to stop paddock-bashing it,” Mr Carter told Dubbo Photo News. “We did a ground-up restoration on it, back to bare metal – probably 80 per cent of the car is new. Then we put a LS and T56 out of a more modern Commodore in it. “All the interior is done as a Walkinshaw specs. It’s just something I always wanted – I had an original Walkinshaw back in the day but I couldn’t afford to buy

one now so, here it is. It’s been about four years in the making – I’ve had a heap of guys helping me out.” Jamie’s day job is doing paint-less dent removals, which is fixing hail and other damage where cars can be repaired without having to use the traditional panel beating techniques but he wasn’t able to utilise his skills on his own car. “I was too busy with work so I farmed it out to a few different shops to help me out. Lummo at Mid-City Smash did all the paintwork,” he said. “The Walkinshaws came out in this colour, Panoramic Silver, with this body kit. I just wanted to go with the more modern engine. “There’s a lot more horsepower in these engines than the older ones. To create a Walkinshaw engine is big dollars (because of) trying to find the right intake manifolds. I was never going to be able to do that, so I thought I might as well put something more modern in it, it’s practical.” He said he not only loves his classic cars, he also loves socialising with like-minded car enthusiasts at events like Cars and Coffee. “I was always taking the HQ

Monaro out but I just wanted something a little bit different. I love to bring the two cars out and hang out with people who appreciate these sorts of classic cars,” Mr Carter said. “Cars and Coffee is my favourite morning of the month. I love going out because you can just park up and walk around and

talk to everyone. Sometimes you don’t even get to leave your car because you’re just talking to everyone about it. “Everyone has their cars out, everyone’s happy. We’re all enthusiastic about our cars and it’s good to get the car all shined up and brought out. It’s a social event without barriers. It’s a great atmosphere.”

Furney’s Town and Country / Pet Extra has moved! AFTER 40 years at the same location, it’s a big deal for Furney’s Town and Country/Pet Extra owner Michael Edwards to uproot his well-known business from Erskine Street and to move to Bourke Street but the feedback so far has been worth it. “We couldn’t ask for it to be better received,” he told Dubbo Photo News. “One of the big feedbacks in moving to this site has been the ease of access. Our previous site did a great job for us with its high exposure on one of the busiest intersections in Dubbo, but one lady said to me – and it sort of encapsulated what a lot of people said – she thought she was buying a raffle ticket for her life to get in and out of the place!” Now located in the former Holden dealership at 54 Bourke Street, access is a breeze, and the car park allows for ample parking and turning space. “There’s an abundance of room and ease to get around, especially for trucks and horse floats,” he said. Another benefit is that the Furney’s Town and Country and Pet

Pet Extra customers can still enjoy a drive through service at the new Furneys Town and Country / Pet Extra location at 54 Bourke Street, Dubbo. PHOTO: DUBBO PHOTO NEWS

Extra stores are no longer in separate buildings. “We’ve basically got everything the same except we’re all under the one roof now and it makes it easier whether you’ve got a horse,

a dog or a cat or a cow. Plus, its more interesting shopping for everyone to have birds tweeting in the background,” Mr Edwards said. One of the great conveniences

of Pet Extra has always been the drive-through. “We still have a drive through here at the new store. It’s still got all the stock feed, cattle blocks, horse feed, hay and all those

things, so you can just drive through, and the guys will put them in your car for you. You don’t have to get out of your car,” he said. Making the move to Bourke Street also created the opportunity to make a dedicated pet grooming room. “We’ve built a new grooming room, so anyone who wants their pooches clipped, washed and cleaned will find everything is available there in a nice new, air-conditioned room.” Furneys Town and Country/Pet Extra staff look forward to welcoming you to the new chapter in their business history to enjoy the vast selection of pet products and services, as well as the quality clothing and accessories offered by Town and Country. Furneys Town and Country/Pet Extra is now located at 54 Bourke Street, Dubbo.

Black Dog Ride made volumes across the state Photos by KEN SMITH AND STEVE COWLEY

THE weather was perfect, the riders were itching to go and the cause is one that’s close to many a heart - all in all, this year’s Black Dog Ride One Dayer was an overwhelming success. A beaming Wayne Amor - organiser of the Dubbo One Dayer - told Dubbo Photo News the day was “awesome”, with much of the feedback confirming it was “one of the best ever”. According to Wayne, the WestView Drive-In site was a perfect spot from which to wave the starting flag for the 260-odd motorbikes and their 273 registered participants, who then

made their way to Narromine for “smoko” and on to the final destination, The Rabbit Trap Hotel at Albert. While the day raised money for a significant donation to the Black Dog Ride, Wayne is adamant that it’s not about the fundraising or the money. “It’s about starting conversations and making people conscious of mental health challenges, particularly men’s mental health,” he said. Representatives from a number of different support agencies were on hand during the day, with the Rural Adversity Mental Health Program (RAMHP) reporting they had three “really important interactions”. As far as Wayne Amoris concerned, that alone means the day was a success.

MEMBERS of the Slot Car Racing Club came together recently at the old Scout Hall in Dubbo to assist with testing of the newest and largest track in the club, measuring a whopping forty-eight metres. All members joined

in to make any adjustments that were needed before allowing full access to members of the public - programming lap times, adjusting any mechanics or time lacking in the start line belt. It was with great excitement that the members unveiled the massive track.

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.

Nicole outswims the blokes

By GEOFF MANN

IN somewhat of a boil over, Nicole Johnstone kept her stroke and won the 50 metres at the Ducks on Sunday morning. With club championships completed, publicity officer Judy Walsh was back in touch with her quirky sense of humour. “Henry Wilcockson and Robert Rich both broke in the final of the 50 Free. Nicole Johnstone was happy to be relegated to number one”! “Henry had no luck in the final of the Backstroke/ Breaststroke brace relay either when he teamed up with “Ned” Sparkes and they, along with the other three teams, broke their times,” Judy continued. Jacob Pearce and Peter Allen were apparently very happy to step up to the podium. The eagle-eyed PO, Judy spotted something a bit suss afterwards. “It was worth noting that Jacob was seated ‘on the table’ this morning under the watchful eye of Ned and it seems there was a

presentation of a bottle of white out to the young swimmer from the table boss at the end of the swim!” Mr Consistent, Bill Greenwood, won the closest to time 25 metre Breaststroke. “It was also great to have Margaret Ross back in the pool follow-

ing her hip surgery.”

After the April monthly meeting this Sunday there will be a barbecue at the Macquarie Club to farewell Garry and Joy Giddings who are moving to Bathurst to be closer to their ‘grandies’ and also to celebrate a couple of milestone birthdays of a few ageing Ducks.

DUBBO athlete Ella Penman has had a season to remember already and she reckons it’s got a lot to do with a growth spurt. “I used to be really tiny but I’ve grown a lot. My coach says every time they see me I have grown,” said Ella who estimates she has grown more than 15cm in recent times. Ella won the 800m Under 17 race on Sunday after finishing second in the 400m.

Cougars second Whitney Cup in three years By GEOFF MANN Photos by MEL POCKNALL CYMS made it two First Grade titles in three years, reversing the Mega Hit night cricket result against Colts in a gripping grand final last Sat. CYMS were awarded the Cup in the 20/21 season after finishing on top of the ladder in a finals-series-less competition.

The Cougars have worn the mantle – unfairly – as CoVid Cup winners but this year they are rightly called Dubbo Whitney Cup Premiers. CYMS 6/176 (Brock Larance 70, Angus Norton 42, Ben Knagge 27no; Tim Howarth 2/8) d RSL Colts 175 (Chris Morton 61, Marty Jeffrey 37; Ben Patterson 3/38; Ben Knagge 2/27)

DUBBO CYMS showed plenty of promise in their last pre-season trial, claiming the Foundation Fathers’ Cup against Orange CYMS. The locals proved too strong in first grade, League Tag and Under 18s.

Dees to face Roos in memorial match

for the game she has continued to play.

By TAHLIA SINCLAIR

THE Dubbo Demons will have two senior teams on the road to Tumbarumba this weekend for the annual Izac Cornell Memorial. This will be the 12th such match. Izac was a first-grade player at Dubbo and won a premiership with the senior men’s team. He is remembered as a dedicated coach and clubman. After leaving Dubbo Izac headed home to Tumbarumba where he continued to play Australian football before his untimely death in 2009. Demon’s player Lauren Hazell said he made an indelible mark on the Dubbo club. “The thing I love about him the most was that he treated me the same as the guys.” Ms Hazell first played for Dubbo as a junior player following encouragement from Izac, paving the way for other girls in the region. “I was just a player. Izac saw it for what it was – it wasn’t ‘okay, we can’t let her go in, she’ll get tackled.’ I wanted to have a crack and he took me in and gave me that opportunity.” Mr Cornell advocated for Ms Hazel from her first season as a player. She said that his work to get her into football helped put the idea of girl’s football into heads

“Just having that conversation back in 2007 was ground-breaking. The next year we had a couple of girls join. A few girls started to trickle through and then the AFLW picked up and five years or so later, people really went ‘oh yeah, girls footy is a thing.’ So, I think we should be acknowledging that Izac really started women’s footy out here.” Early iterations of the memorial match saw the women playing netball, but in recent years they’ve moved onto the footy field. “The fact we’ve been able to do a little scratch match with them has been really cool. It’s nice to be involved and be able to touch back on his impact. I don’t think I would have ever played. He started it,” a grateful Lauren said. This weekend will feature two matches with the senior women’s and men’s teams playing.

across the central west. “Out of the blue he came up to me one week and said: ‘Oh, we’ve got the Central West rep squad trials coming up and I’ve put you for-

ward.’ I didn’t even know it was a thing, and I was the first girl ever to play on that side! “I guess from there it was like, wow, I can do what the boys are

doing.” With girl’s football still in its infancy, Ms Hazell soon aged out of the league, but the chance that Izac took on her sparked a love

“We had hoped to include a junior match for the first time however it was withdrawn due to player availability issues.” This will be the Dubbo Demon’s first hit out since the 2021 season was cancelled due to COVID-19 restrictions and it will tip off the delayed 40th anniversary celebrations.

THE Dubbo Dragon Boat Club competed at the Forbes Regatta on Sunday 20th. Club stalwart and State rep Rhonda Betts says It was a great day of racing. “Lots of friendly rivalry between all the clubs in the western region including Parkes, Orange, Cowra, Bathurst and ourselves. There were

very close finishes on a course set among the gum trees on beautiful Lake Forbes.” To top off the day, the Outback Dragons came home with some bling! “We won the Mixed 20’s 200m, finished second in the 100m Dash for Cash and third in the Bridge to Bridge Classic. This was an almighty close race with less than a second between 1st and 3rd).

Croquet celebrations continue By BEN VANG

THE Centenary Doubles championships started Saturday 12th March and were played over two days with eight pairs including some of our newest members. Scores were very close with Charles Campbell and his partner Ingrid Stufano coming through undefeated. Bryan Smith and Ben Vang finished second while Lillian Wallace and Kate Colwell claimed the bronze medals. Publicity Officer Margaret Sheridan was glad to be back at the Muller Park Courts for this delayed but much anticipated event. “A new Advanced Handicapping System was used for the first time giving very interesting results. It allowed players of any level to compete against the stronger players and enjoy the competition. Some of our newest members participated and told us they will be back for more in the weeks and months ahead.” Anyone interested in playing Croquet on Australia’s first built-for-purpose synthetic courts at Muller Park in North Dubbo can contact the club via Facebook.

At Sundy morning bowls – ‘the skip’ is not just for getting rid of rubbish! Contributed by ‘PISTOL PETE’ A GOOD skip is bright, clever and adept in motivating, encouraging and praising. How does one become a good skip? Does anyone really want to be responsible for the management of others and a game of bowls. Last Sundy, Dubbo Combo Bowlers teams were gifted with well-regarded and admired skips – Matt Quin, Col Cottee, Gordon Scott, Kevin Scott, Karen Greenhalge, Ricky See, Tod O’Dea, Mel Giddings, Bryan O’Sullivan and John Cole. Just like umpires and referees, half will be popular (winners); the other half not so! Twenty-nine bowlers graced the

greens under threatening skies and proceeded to fan ‘rooster tails’ as the bowls sailed across the wet surface. This lasted for 12 of the scheduled 16 ends before gravity forcing rain down upon the players, the skips agreeing to adjourn. Dave Davis and Bryan O’Sullivan were disappointed after trying to try to match it with Pete Bennison and John Cole and with both teams enjoying the use of ‘swinging’ Ron McAuley. Pete and John and the swinger won 14 shots to 4. On Rink 4 a ‘couple’ of O’Deas – Sue and Tod – combined with Leo Balstrad against Rob Pfeiffer, Paul Goodstat and Mel Giddings. As I have mentioned previously, to win a game you need to grab the mat and hold it. Team Mel kept

the mat for 7 ends and mounted a seven-shot lead – much too big a hill to climb for the O’Ds and Leo. 18-8 the final score. Ricky See's absence made his bowls ‘skip’ a little closer as he, Shirley Marchant and Allan Stratford controlled the game against Ron Morrison, Gaye Cottee and Karen Greenhalge winning nine of the 12 ends for a 14-7 win. Pete Ruzans joined two Scotts, Greg and skip Gordon against the experienced trio of Paul Martin, Gordon Lummis and Kevin Scott. Greg, who was visiting from the Majellan Club in Bathurst was part of the team that led 5-3 after four; 11-9 after eight before an 8-shot bomb hit them at nine! Kevin and his lot were not done though, letting their bowls do

In the final game, Sue McAuley, Ross Pharo and Col Cottee were formidable opponents for John Kennedy, Doc Livingston and Matt Quill. The triples scored two early four shot ends followed by a five and continued on their merry way for a comprehensive 24-4 victory.  Winners – Sue McAuley, Ross Pharo and Col Cottee with 29 points.  Runners up – Ron McAuley (helps to swing), Pete Bennison and John Cole with 18 points.  Resters – Gordon Lummis, Allan Stratford and Ross Pharo.  Door prizes – Greg Scott, Rob Pfeiffer and Allan Stratford.

Vinnie lived life to the fullest By GEOFF MANN NEWS of the untimely death of Vincent “Vinnie” Gordon struck the entire western community last weekend. The effervescent, ever positive, always dreaming husband, father, grandfather and friend succumbed to brain cancer after a typically defiant fight against the disease. Our story last year of the likable bloke who hailed from Condobolin is a wonderful reflection of Vinnie’s outlook on life. He will be sadly missed, especially in the racing and rugby spheres where he had played a leadership role over the past decade or more. Vince was born into a horse-loving family, coming through his pony club days and onto equestrian, eventing, barrel racing, polo and other rodeo events including buck-jumping. “Going on the broncs and big cattle wasn’t my idea of fun but it certainly got my adrenaline pumping,” Vinnie told me one day as we stood on the sideline watch-

The turnaround at Dubbo Turf Club which he oversaw under the direction of Club President Chris Davis and a visionary committee has been something very special.” Col remembers Vince as being a man who looked at the big picture. “He was a champion of the smaller racing clubs in the region, probably because he had grown up in Condo when his dad and many like him bred, trained and supported the industry. He was always on the lookout for ways to include regular and Picnic Clubs and was held in very high esteem. I cannot sing his praises highly enough,” Col resonated with a hint of sadness in his voice. Vince’s funeral will be held at St Brigid’s Catholic Church at 11 o’clock on Monday 4th April. Jockey Club patrons as well as Dubbo Kangaroos players and supporters can show their appreciation by wearing club colours.
