Cooper and team are Aussie champs

By SHARON BONTHUYS

TOMINGLEY teen Cooper Dart was part of the NSW Combined High Schools (CHS) lawn bowls squad that won the inaugural School Sport Australia (SSA) Championships last month in Melbourne.

With members ranging in age from 13 to 18 years, the 15-member, five-a-side, mixed squad dominated the competition against their Victorian opponents, defeating them soundly by 49.5 to 22.5 at the event held between September 14 – 16.

It was the very first SSA lawn bowls championship to be held, meaning Cooper and his 14 NSW CHS colleagues have created history as the inaugural tournament winners.

Fourteen-year-old Cooper said he really enjoyed playing in the championships.

“It was a good event and a lot of fun. Everyone was nice and encouraging,” he said.

“We played five rounds and in the first round we ended up losing, but after that we won every single round,” Cooper said.

Gavin Holburn is the national sports advisor with SSA for bowls, and also in charge of the NSW CHS team. Although not directly involved with the NSW team while performing his over-arching SSA role at the event, Gavin was thrilled to see the NSW team come away with the win.

“To be so dominant, it was surprising,” he said.

“When you look at the individual results, there were lots of very close games going down to one shot difference or a draw. NSW

won all the close games.

“This was the first event after COVID for many of the team members and they were over the moon to win an Australian medal,” Gavin said.

This level of competition is currently the highest that CHS students can participate in within Australia. There is no international competition at this level but ten players were selected as the best in the country.

“He doesn’t know this but Cooper was probably the next player in line for all-Australian merit selection. We picked ten and he was just outside that top ten,” Gavin said.

High praise indeed for young Cooper, who has the world ahead of him in the sport he clearly loves.

Cooper told the Narromine Star that his competitive school bowls has now finished for the

year and will start up again in the new year. But there’s no rest for the teen sensation as he heads straight into the club bowls championships in Dubbo. Cooper has been a member of the West Dubbo Bowling Club since he first took up the sport locally at age 10.

Proud dad Gavin Dart told the Narromine Star that there’s not really an “off-season” with bowls. It can be played year round as a club sport and social bowls.

Gavin and Kelly Dart accompanied Cooper to Melbourne for the championships and were able to watch their son compete.

“It was a good week away. The competition between NSW and Victoria was very good,” Gavin

“To see him get a gold medal, it was wonderful,” Gavin said.

President of the West Dubbo Bowls Club, Glen Morrison, said Cooper’s success at the Australian SSA Championships was “absolutely fantastic”.

“Cooper’s a terrific young man and we’re very proud of him,” he said, indicating the club has about ten juniors currently playing bowls in the club’s junior program.

Glen said the club provides junior scholarships that help with some of the costs of young people playing lawn bowls while still at school, including a set of bowls. Cooper is a recipient of one of these scholarships.

“The bowls were bigger than him when he started here,” Glen laughed. “He’s shot up a bit since then.

“We hope Cooper continues to play and that he’ll continue to do well,” Glen said.

Cooper and his family expressed their sincere thanks and appreciation to the sponsors in several communities that made the trip to Melbourne possible last month.

Support was provided by Tomingley Gold Operations in Cooper’s hometown, the Peak Hill Aboriginal Medical Service Incorporated in the town where he goes to school, and Club Dubbo, home of the West Dubbo Bowling Club.

Return and Earn recyclers raise $17,000 for flood relief in NSW

THANKS to generous Return and Earn recyclers in NSW, not-forprofit GIVIT has raised more than $17,000 to support people affected by floods across NSW.

GIVIT has been featured on all Return and Earn machines in NSW since April this year, enabling anyone to donate their container refunds to help people impacted by the recent floods.

“This year we have seen people across the state devastated by the severe weather, and the funds donated to GIVIT through Return and Earn will help provide essentials such as food, clothes, and household goods to impacted families,” said Danielle Smalley, CEO of Exchange for Change, scheme coordinator for Return and Earn.

After 16 October 2022, NSW recyclers can continue to support GIVIT’s flood appeal by using the donate feature on the Return and Earn app when returning containers at a Return and Earn machine.

Local muso makes album debut

By LYDIA PEDRANA

DUBBO-BORN singer songwriter Katie Thorne will launch her debut EP later this month.

Entitled ‘Wine Drunk’, the album will feature five original tracks by the talented 28-year-old artist.

Flirtatious in nature with hints of jazz weaved throughout, this debut is several years, and heartbreaks, in the making.

“I look at the ’Wine Drunk’ EP as a kind of heartbreak life cycle,” she told Dubbo Photo News

“From the heady rush and excitement of a new crush to desperation and self-destruction, and everything in between.”

Now based in Sydney, Ms Thorne is booked for several gigs at popular city venues most weekends.

While performing at the East Village Hotel in Balmain last weekend, Ms Thorne was spotted by popular radio personality Ryan ‘Fitzy’ Fitzgerald, host of Fitzy and Wippa on Nova 969.

Mr Fitzgerald shared a video of Ms Thorne singing with 127,000 Insta-

gram followers.

To celebrate the milestone launch of her EP, Ms Thorne is performing her first ever, one-off headline show at the Petersham Bowling Club on October 27.

Complete with support acts, the show will feature live band arrangements and an exclusive look at unreleased originals by Ms Thorne.

“I’m really excited about the launch but also definitely quite nervous,” she said.

“This is the first time I’m doing anything like this and to be playing my songs, along with some sneaky unreleased tracks too, with a full band and a line-up is actually a pretty big deal for me.

“Nerves aside, I can’t wait to share what I’ve been working on with everyone; tickets are selling so fast, I think it’s going be a great night.”

Tickets to the launch show can be purchase via Moshtix, and the EP ‘Wine Drunk’ is available to presave on Spotify, Apple Music and Deezer before being released on Friday, October 21.

Dubbo housing market remains promising

By LYDIA PEDRANA

THE Dubbo property market is holding steady despite dwindling prices nationally.

Local agent Samuel Shooter of SJ Shooter Real Estate said the city’s resilience is a result of an infrastructure boom, it’s accessibility and it’s diverse economy.

“We are currently experiencing a once in a generation infrastructure boom and this is evidence of the importance and confidence both the government and private sector place on Dubbo and the part it will play in our region long into the future,” Mr Shooter told Dubbo Photo News

“This boom increases demand on the housing sector and ensures increased population growth both during and following the construction phase.”

“Further to this, compared to some of our regional counterparts, our median sale price remains $100,000 plus less, which allows a wide range of buyers to purchase here and not experience unnecessary financial pressure.”

“Lastly, Dubbo is not solely reliant on any one industry, with strong retail, tourism, hospitality, medical and construction industries ensuring employment and growth opportunities for locals and newcomers alike.

“With significant investment in renewable energy options on their way, our city’s future and its offerings to locals continues to expand.”

From May to July this year, the median house price for three- and

four or more-bedroom properties decreased from $517,000 to $472,000, but sale volumes remained strong.

In July 58 properties in Dubbo sold, compared to 56 in May.

“Whilst there was a notable drop in median sale price for July, sale numbers were still high, this best in fact of those three

months.”

With Spring selling season a little quieter than usual, Mr Shooter’s advice to sellers is simple.

“It will be a different Spring to the ones we’ve seen of late, primarily due to the increased loan repayment costs, as a result of higher interest rates,” he said.

“The key thing for sellers to keep

in mind is to price appropriately.

“In any market, increasing or decreasing, the homes that sell well and swiftly are the ones that are priced appropriately and presented well.

“This generates genuine buyer interest and creates a competitive environment throughout the sale amongst buyers.”

Additional parental leave for NSW public sector employees

EVERY mother and father in the NSW public sector will be entitled 14 weeks of paid parental leave as part of changes to remove the distinction between a ‘primary’ and a ‘secondary’ carer.

Parents can now also use their leave up to two years after the birth, adoption, surrogacy, or per-manent out-of-home care placement of their child.

An additional two weeks of bonus leave is now also available for parents who equally share childcare responsibilities, allowing public sector employees to take up to 16 weeks of paid paren-tal

NSW premier Dominic Perrottet said the extended parental leave will provide parents with more choice on careers and caring opportunities.

“Giving parents the support and real options to share care in the early years of their child’s life, lets families choose what works for them and delivers equal opportunity for NSW Government employees,” Mr Perrottet said.

“Giving fathers the option to spend more time with their young ones and mothers the option to return to work when it suits them will build strong foundations for families and benefit the whole community.”

NSW public sector workers undergoing fertility treatment have the ability to access five days of fertility leave per year.

ANCIENT CROWN BY ADAM

FORMER Dubbo artist Adam King has installed a new metal sculpture for ‘Hidden’, an annual outdoor sculpture exhibition that takes place amongst the pathways and gardens in one of the oldest sections of Rookwood Cemetery.

The exhibition is a unique opportunity for artists to engage with the cemetery’s contemporary relevance, and invites the public into these layered narratives while exploring the diverse cultural heritage of Australia’s largest and most historic cemetery.

“My latest piece of art consists of a spirit, it has the traditional crown on its head would you find in a lot of Aboriginal artwork in caves,” Mr King said.

“It has the males up the top the females are down the bottom and it’s telling a story of the males meeting the females it has a love heart in the middle representing the loss of a loved one.”

Purposebuilt homes

By LYDIA PEDRANA

PEOPLE living with a disability in Dubbo now have the opportunity to live more independently and stay connected to the community, thanks to local property developer Ryan Medley.

Mr Medley, who acquired a physical disability after a football accident in 2017, designed and managed the construction of 10, centrally-located, purpose-built villas which officially opened last week.

Located on Queen Street in the heart of Dubbo, the $2.2 million specialist disability accommodation (SDA) project was a partnership between Langford Regional and LiveBetter, and will become home to 10 SDA-approved residents and housemates of their choice.

Mr Medley said a great deal of thought went into both the functionality and visual design of the complex to ensure it had a human

touch.

“We made a conscious effort to make the villas look aesthetically pleasing and meet the specifications,” he told Dubbo Photo News

“It was really important for us to not look clinical.”

Each of the single storey villas is designed to offer high physical

support with features including a backup generator to ensure power in a blackout, step free entry’s, widened doors, non-slip flooring, touch pad control air conditioning, duress buttons throughout and contrasting door colours to aid vision impaired tenants.

The kitchen is also wheelchair

er dishwasher, side opening oven and adjustable meal preparation area.

Now five years on from his accident, Mr Medley is the proud father of almost two-year-old, Sonny, and has another bundle of joy due with his wife, Casey, in February.

Speaking of his physical and mental recovery, Mr Medley feels “very fortunate.

“I don’t have any pain whatsoever, I’ve got sensation below my injury, but I don’t have any pain,” he said.

“I’m so blessed, I’m not on any medication, so I’m practically pain-free and medication-free which is apparently pretty rare.

“Mentally I’m sweet too, I just try to keep positive and keep pretty busy and active, I don’t get bored, that’s for sure.”

Mr Medley is now working to recreate a complex, similar to the Dubbo project, in Orange.

Sheehan sisters making their mark

Emma and Penny Sheehan, an artist and interior designer respectively, are thriving in their respective careers and both credit their mum, Sally, a well-known pharmacist around town, for inspiring their creative eye.

weekends disappear.”

As a little girl, Emma would seldom be caught without her sketch book which was full of hand-drawn patterns and creatures. She went on to study art at school too, but admits it wasn’t her strongest subject.

“I never dreamed that I would become an artist as my profession or let alone ever thought I was good enough to be,” Emma said.

“I have to thank Gig, the owner of The Moree Gallery, for pushing me to take my art more seriously and encouraging me to pursue it as a career.”

After completing an art history major and Masters in Art Curation at the University of Sydney, Emma, 26, now resides on a sheep farm in Jugiong and spends every day in her studio.

“I try to look at spacing the painting out as my nine to five workday so that I don’t burn myself out, because I could keep painting into the late hours of the night when I’m in the zone but that’s not always productive in the long run,” she told Dubbo Photo News

“In saying that, hours can vary, for example, in the lead up to exhibitions, days go on a bit longer and

Describing herself as a contemporary still life artist, Emma draws on her appreciation for colour, pattern, textiles, and ceramics to create eye-catching table scapes.

“I am very much drawn to colour and pattern and love experimenting with these qualities to instil a sense of playfulness within each work,” she said.

“My overall style is quite naïve, where I enjoy simplifying each object down to their most basic form and then add in finer details to give to bring each object to life.

ettes and compositions and to celebrate the joyous nature of home cooking and its associations.”

This month, Emma released a 2023 calendar that features 12 of her original artworks.

Next, she is preparing for a series of upcoming exhibitions in Murrurundi, Jugiong and Moree.

In April, she also has a solo exhibition at Maunsell Wickes Gallery in Sydney’s exclusive suburb of Paddington.

Meanwhile, big sister Penny, 28, is working for top interior designer Anna Spiro in Brisbane and has recently guest edited a collector’s edition of iconic design magazine, Home Beautiful.

Landing her dream job with Spiro straight out of university six years ago, Penny now works with her own clients based all around the country, helping them transform single rooms and entire houses.

For a brief time, Emma worked at the same design house and together the sisters worked on patterns for a special stationary collaboration for US retail giant, Anthropologie.

Naturally drawn to colour and pattern, which seems to run in the family, Penny is inspired by charming cottage interiors and traditional architecture details.

“I feel the best in and like to create rooms wrapped in colour and pattern but in a way that isn’t too chaotic,” Penny explained.

“Sometimes people think I love going all out bright, bright, bright, but I think that can all be too much – I like to have a mix and a well-balanced space.

“I love colour on the walls then mixed back with something more earthy like an old antique piece of furniture or a sisal rug tied all together with some beautiful, patterned curtains or cushions on the sofa.”

Penny’s love for styling also started young.

“I think I have always loved being surrounded by colour and beautiful things,” she said.

“Mum has told me that when I was young, I used to create mini shrines in my bedroom using picture frames, jew-

ellery boxes and other little objects so perhaps that was the start of me creating interiors.

“We have also been fortunate enough to always live in a home where the walls were filled with art and very rarely was there a room without pattern or colour.

“Growing up in that sort of environment definitely contributed to the way I like to live now and the interiors I love to help people create”.

Her career highlight so far was working on Anna Spiro’s book, A Life in Pattern.

“We worked on this book completely in house and I was fortunate enough to be given the role of designing the book as well as being a part of all the project and content shoots for the book imagery,” she said.

“It was so rewarding to be able to hold a finished copy of this book once it was printed and on book stands.

“I hope one day I that I could have my own book, that is still a little way off yet.”

On top of her day job, Penny and her fiancé and have also bought and styled a home on the outskirts of Crookwell NSW called the Moorabinda Guest House.

Injected with Penny’s unique, colourful, eclectic style, the house sleeps up to eight guests and of course, features Emma’s art on the walls.

“It was one of my first personal projects that I was able to work on and a bit of an experimenting ground for new wall colours and ideas,” Penny said of the house.

Penny’s next project is her own wedding, which is being held in the Sheehan family garden back in Dubbo next year.

A COUNTRY PRACTICE

Budding Walgett doctor selected for bursary

By LYDIA PEDRANA

JUNIOR Walgett doctor Isobel Pye is one of three lucky recipients of a national bursary which will see her travel to the Rural Medicine Australia conference in Canberra this week.

Offered by MDA National and the Rural Doctors Association of Australia (RDAA), the conference gives junior doctors the opportunity to speak with seasoned rural health professionals from across Australia.

Currently working as an Unaccredited Dermatology Trainee at the Royal North Shore Hospital in Sydney, 26-year-old Dr Pye will soon commence GP training in rural Western NSW with the hope of becoming a rural GP with advanced skills in dermatology.

“It was both my personal experience with skin disease and Walgett’s lack of access to medical care which sparked my ambition to pursue medicine,” she told bo Photo News

“Rural people deserve high-quality and safe healthcare, but many barriers are preventing this from being the case.

“Practicing rurally enables you to provide a level of continuing medical care that is unlike any other.

“It is certainly different from working in the city where you’ll often never see your patients again.

“In my eyes, the privilege to treat and provide ongoing support to patients through both their acute and chronic illnesses is the most fulfilling part of being a doctor.”

Dr Pye believes more people would practice rurally if they were able to study medicine in rural areas.

“Medical schools can begin by selecting those motivated candidates from rural backgrounds and allowing them to complete the majority, if not all of their training in rural areas,” she explained.

“The evidence tells us that the longer rural students spend in metro areas, the less likely they will return to the bush.

“Post-medicine, it is important to have senior clinicians to look up to and be truly inspired by.”

As a keen equestrian, Ms

Pye admits she is the “exception to the rule” and is keen to return to the country.

“I can’t wait to give back to the community which has given me so much,” she said.

“I grew up looking after ten loyal kelpies and more than 15 horses, and I certainly miss this aspect of rural life.”

Dr Pye is looking forward to connecting with other like-minded junior doctors and learning from experience senior clinicians at the RMA conference.

Dynamic Dubbo duo checks out

After nearly 37 years in an everchanging industry, it’s time for Terry and Sue Clark to check out of the accommodation business, but after a near-four-decades-long “love affair” with Dubbo and the western region, the couple has no plans to check out as locals.

JEN COWLEY spoke with them about the changes they’ve seen in the industry, and how their trailblazing impact has helped mould the regional tourism landscape.

THEY are among Dubbo’s bestknown business people, having pioneered the city’s accommodation services as we now know them and helping lead the charge into the brave new world of tourism in the digital age.

But after nearly 40 years Terry and Sue Clark have hung up their figurative concierge keys and are preparing to head off into a wellearned retirement.

It’s not yet two months since the renowned locals, who are also actively involved in voluntary service to the community, handed over the keys to Country Apartments, but there’s no hint of separation anxiety.

Their 37 years in a mercurial and ever-evolving industry has left them with only fond memories and a lifelong love for Dubbo and the region, which they will continue to call home.

The couple came to the great Western Plains from the Sunshine Coast in 1985, in pursuit of a complete career change after a number of years in the pastoral industry.

“We came here to manage a motel,” Terry recalls. “The workload hit us like a tonne of bricks, with a 50-seat restaurant and 22 units to manage, it was pretty full on.”

Despite that shock, the couple soon realised they had a flair for hospitality and customer service, and so began their love affair with not only this region, but the accommodation industry.

“We worked our hearts out, then a light bulb went off and we decided to buy the flats behind the motel and develop them into self-contained units as an extra to the existing motel – which we did with the owner’s blessing,” says Terry, describing the genesis of what Dubbo now knows as Country Apartments.

At the time, there was precious

little to compare on the local accommodation landscape. There was a smattering of similar but smaller options, but nothing with two bedrooms and separate living and kitchen areas. The business was unique, and hung out its shingle with the slogan, “More than a motel room”.

Terry agrees that their vision helped open a door for others to follow.

“Now you’ll find that most motels have a house next door or have embraced that type of option, but we were the first.”

Over the years, the Clarks have been trailblazers, but equally eager to follow the trails blazed by others, embracing each change and leaning into the various twists and turns of a fast-moving industry.

One of the most significant shifts was the advent of AirBnB, which added another layer to the accommodation space when it began to take flight some ten years ago.

“Instead of fighting against the change in the industry, Terry and Sue embraced the newcomer, and joined up to the platform with gusto.

“We had the perfect product so we fitted into that market really well,” says Terry, adding proudly that the business has been named an AirBnB “super-host” for four periods in a row.

In the early 2000s, along came user-generated tourism advice and review platform TripAdvisor, a digital-age development that had many industry providers ducking for cover with fear and trepidation.

Not Terry and Sue, who believe TripAdvisor was a brilliant way to clean up the industry, and drag other operators to the standard they’d always held for themselves.

“Suddenly, we were being judged on that day by our guests, where in the past, we were judged by NRMA on a particular day with advanced warning, and everyone would put their best foot forward on that day,” says Sue.

“We had to pay enormous money to get that star rating and you were only ever looked at every 18 months. It was never a true reflection. TripAdvisor gave every visitor the right to review you on that day.”

It helped raise and revolutionise standards throughout the indus-

THE TOONS’ VIEWS

rightly so. We embraced it. We always did our best to be the best.”

After so many years in the industry, it’s easy to imagine that having such experience and a critical eye for detail has ruined travel for the Clarks.

Both say and emphatic “no”, and in fact it seems their consciousness and hyper-vigilance has made them not only super hosts, but super guests.

“We do judge but we don’t criticise publicly. If we feel they’re letting themselves down we’ll just quietly add a private note to them. Most of the time our review (as guests) comes back saying, “We’ve never had the unit left so clean” –we would never leave a place as some of our guests do.”

As they check out of the industry as professionals of 37 years’ experience, Terry and Sue both believe they have been effective ambassadors for this city and region when it comes to tourism.

“I don’t think people realise how important the hosts of ac-

commodation providers are to the city. I’ve always said every motel should be doing well because if people have a bad experience, that reflects on everyone and they rate

“We were always conscious of selling an experience, not a room,” says the couple, who became the masters of first impressions.

“We knew that we had to provide something different so we focussed on the garden, so our guests came in and said, “Wow!” before they’d even seen their rooms. By the time walked into their room, they were already wowed.”

The decision to retire after 37 years in the industry didn’t come easily, although Sue admits she was ready to step back well before Terry and the couple together made the decision to move offsite in the first instance, a “tapering” that made it less of a wrench to finally sell the business.

Terry is adamant that while he’s been arguably the more public-facing of the two, Sue has been in every way an equal partner in the success the pair has forged in the industry.

“We’ve been a team together, working side by side for all those years. Not many people could have done that. We’ve been married 52

years, only five of those we’ve not worked together.”

On reflection, the most significant changes Terry and Sue have seen in the industry over the course of nearly four decades are those brought by technology and the digital age, but those changes have also presented the challenges that have kept it real and exciting.

“Embracing change has been a great motivator,” says Terry. “The only thing that makes me sad about technology is that we’ve lost that human contact. We don’t talk to people any more – it’s only the regulars that will actually pick up the phone and ring us now.”

Not that Terry and Sue don’t have a healthy contingent of regulars, some who have been with the couple for almost the entirety of their tenure, with Terry reflecting on how hard it was to say goodbye to one guest:

“He’s been staying with us every week for 34 years.”

So what does retirement look like for such a dynamic duo?

With their children and grandchildren at opposite ends of the planet, Terry and Sue will be dividing their time between here at home in Dubbo and the UK spending precious time with family.

And while they’re officially retired from the industry, the couple will always take a keen interest in the future of tourism for Dubbo and across the region.

“Dubbo has enormous tourism potential. We’ve always had that potential. The zoo has always been the greatest catalyst we’ve had and for many, many years

I don’t think we embraced that enough. Now, it’s amazing how this city is promoted,” says Terry who, as a long-term co-ordinator of the Royal Flying Doctors Service Dubbo Support Group, was instrumental in helping establish the new visitor experience at the base here in Dubbo.

“I fell in love with Dubbo many, many years ago – the amenities, the gardens... everything we have makes it a wonderful place.

“I’d love to see Dubbo grow stronger and stronger, pushing the tourism barrow and the regional experience. Moving with the times and embracing change is the future.”

After 37 years, Terry and Sue Clark are "checking out" as accommodation providers, embarking on a retirement right here in Dubbo, the city they fell in love with all those years ago. PHOTO: DUBBO PHOTO NEWS

Dubbo RSL Memorial Club

Dubbo RSL Memorial Club marks 75 years!

A lot of water’s gone under the bridge at the Dubbo RSL Memorial Club in the past 75 years. Since opening its doors in 1946, hundreds of employees have joined the ranks of cleaners, bar staff, front desk managers, chefs and more, to ensure the Club’s success and longevity.

What better way to let the pictures tell the story. In the photos to follow, you’ll see past and present employees who joined the Dubbo RSL Club family and made happy memories serving patrons and the community.

Many of them stayed long term. Ten, 20, 30-year milestones are not uncommon celebrations at the Club which is a testament to the working culture inside.

While the Club building has undergone numerous refurbishments and renovations over the decades it’s a given that whatever team is representing the Club brand, they’ll be working hard with genuine dedication.

On Friday night, October 14, a grand celebration will be held at Dubbo RSL Memorial Club auditorium.

There are few people in Dubbo who can say they’ve never set foot in that space, whether to see a Wiggles show, a boxing tournament, attend a school graduation or reunion, joined a wedding reception, a fundraiser, trade show, and the list goes on.

Friday night will be another of memories made and remembered. Seventy-five years is an exceptional milestone.

All are welcome to attend. Tickets are available at reception or via 123tix.com. Now... who can you recognise inside?

AVATAR is directed by James Cameron, and sees a paraplegic called Jake replace his twin on the planet Pandora for a corporate mission. After the Na’vi natives accept him as one of their own, he must decide where his loyalties lie.

When I was eight years old, I hadn’t had the chance to experience Avatar because I thought the cinemas may be a bit too loud for me, but then I grew up and here I am watching films in the cinemas. And with the sequel coming out soon, they brought it back. I had the chance to see it in 3D – it was amazing!

There was nature flying through me, when action happened, I felt like I was there. I felt like I could touch one of the charac-

ters’ faces and the flowers in this film. The visuals were so beautifully detailed in the landscapes of Pandora, the CGI (computer generated images) felt real. So much thought and care have gone into this film.

(com

The story was well written, and the characters were great, even for the bad guy who was very hateful in this film. He did a very good job portraying an aggressive colonel who’s dreamt of war and his villainous tropes.

In conclusion, I highly recommend seeing this in theatres once again, and one more thing...I recommend staying for the credits for a sneak peek for the new Way of the Water film. I’m giving this one a 10/10! *Aaron Hill is a local Dubbo film-buff.

Donate your good quality books this Saturday

CALLING all book lovers. Head down to the Custom Steel Frame carpark this Saturday with all your good quality books and donate them to the 2023 Michael Egan Memorial Book Fair.

“Collection for the 2023 fair starts now and will be held in the Custom Steel Frames carpark at 110 Fitzroy St in North Dubbo, just south of River St,” West Dubbo Rotary fair coordinator Colin Shanks told Dubbo Photo News

“We’ll be accepting donations from 9am to 4pm on Saturday, October 15. It is the first time that the collection has taken place on a weekend, so we hope that this gives the community more opportunity to drop off

their books.”

“We’re keen to see these books given a new lease of life, find a new home and a new reader. It’s our first year hosting this annual

event, but to be a success it relies entirely on the community support to provide us with good quality books suitable for sale.”

Planning is well underway for

the next book fair which will be held on April 29 and 30, 2023 at the Dubbo Showground.

Each year the funds raised have helped the RFDS Dubbo Support Group as well as supporting research into cancer, to honour the memory of Rotarian Michael Egan who died of cancer.

“The community has provided thousands and thousands of books over the past 12-years and we hope we’ll get thousands more – ideally quality over quantity. So please only donate books in good condition. We do accept most genres,” Mr Shanks said.

THE fantastic spread laid on at Ingenia Gardens for an RSPCA Cupcake Morning certainly had the tick of approval from the residents’ furry friend Monty. The cupcakes were brilliantly decorated in a rainbow of bright hues, and tasted just as good as they looked. The gold coin donations collected throughout the morning went to support the local branch of the RSPCA, which had Monty’s tail wagging happily.

NOW HERE’S A TIP

A Tip From JoAnn: I like bottled water, but it’s expensive and creates a lot of waste. I have plenty of reusable bottles, but bottled water always seemed more convenient and, frankly, better. I found that what I really like is to take a bottle of very cold water out of the fridge and drink it, so instead of storing those reusable bottles in the cabinet, I fill them straight after getting them from the dishwasher and put them in the fridge. Now I have the convenience of bottled water without spending the money, and I happily am not creating waste.

To remove stubborn contact paper from kitchen shelves, use a hair dryer set on low to loosen the adhesive. Peel away slowly.

Here’s a trick for removing hardwater stains on windows or glass doors: Apply full-strength fabric

softener to surface. Let dry, then use a wet cloth to remove, rinsing the cloth frequently.

“Hang a bag of clothes pegs near the laundry basket. Then if something has a stain that needs to be addressed, put a clip on it before adding it to the basket. This way, you’ll know what to pre-treat on wash day.” – D.W.

“To keep pants on a hanger from creasing, I slit a paper towel cardboard roll and slip it over the hanger. I tape it together and then put the pants over it. This has worked for me for many years.” – I.R.

Got a grease stain on your shirt? Cover it with baking soda right away. The baking soda will absorb oil. Repeat several times and launder as quickly as you can.

Rambo humbled by heartfelt gifts

By GEOFF MANN

Ron Gibbs is a living legend in western rugby league circles. Known for his toughness, the man who earned the nickname “Rambo” while playing with the Manly Sea Eagles, the fiery forward was on the verge of tears recently when a group of mates gathered for coffee.

“The modern day Tree of Knowledge” where Ronny is often found outside Chris’s Coffee Shop at the lower end of Macquarie Street was where Steve Howarth surprised his childhood hero.

Steve Howarth grew up in Bourke, with Ronny “the man he wanted to be”.

Steve has been carrying a special gift in his bag for three or four years. On that day recently when there was talk of flooding rains, the chat inevitably turned to league and the 25th Ronny Gibbs 7s held in Bourke.

Then Steve produced a carved egg, a cherished item for a first nations man.

“It had been in my heart for a long time to honour Ronny in this way. I wanted to thank him for his career as a player and nearly three decades of giving generously to the community. He is so loved!

“Ronny Gibbs was who I wanted to be like, but I never had his fearless attitude nor the skills that took him to the top.”

There are so many dimensions to the magnificently prepared gift.

“The egg reflects a spiritual dimension. It signifies new life and this can be achieved at many levels – birth, knowledge, meeting special timelines, growing with mates, teaching others. The emu egg has many layers and great beauty and these have been revealed by the artist, Helen Tringham.”

It is obvious the love that Steve has for the man on whom he has tried to model himself.

“I explained to Helen what I wanted. Sea Eagles, headgear, beaten face of the bloke who left nothing on the field. I wanted her to capture the Darling Barkindji which has been the lifeblood of our people and the bridge that linked the townspeople to North Bourke.

“I wanted the gift mounted on a special mulga wood that was a part of our growing up. When we light a fire we gain warmth and light; when Ronny comes to town the same emotions are stirred and so the egg is held in a special case,” Steve explained.

Steve Howarth says his gift is on behalf of the thousands of people Ronny has touched.

“As I grew older and my career stalled in Bourke and the west, I watched in awe as this young bloke from the Darling took it to the best. He became a champion, no quarters asked, none given.”

Then Rambo came back to the bush – Mudgee, Narromine, even an odd game in his home town. That is when Steve Howarth’s admiration grew for his hero.

“Ronny has been so generous in the past 25 years, travelling selflessly to all our communities out

west, passing on skills and knowledge of league, but even more importantly, encouraging young boys and girls to be the best they can be. He admits school wasn’t his most favourite thing, but he learned many lessons from teachers and elders in his time at Bourke and when he moved to Newcastle,” Steve told me with strong emotion.

In fact, when Ron was awarded the Tony McGrane Award in Dubbo last year he reflected on the life lessons he had learned from his parents, grandparents and those in the Aboriginal community in which he had been raised. He also acknowledged those who had challenged him to do his best and supported and encouraged him along the way.

Anyone who has met Ron Gibbs through league, in life with his wife Megan with whom he has been in love since high school, and children and now grandkids, or when he has driven into town for a clinic or a fundraiser, can identify with what Steve is saying.

In short, Ronny “Rambo” Gibbs is a great bloke, a true friend and a man of many beautiful layers. Each day he walks around the community he reveals another, and all of us are better for having had him cross our paths.

who grew up alongside Ron in Bourke. I think he sums up his friend beautifully

HEROES OF THE WEST

RON Gibbs is a 60-year-old Indigenous Australian man presently residing in Dubbo.

Ron was born in Brewarrina and spent his formative years in Bourke, in far western NSW. As a boy, he played junior rugby league on the dusty playing fields of outback NSW.

Like so many others he dreamed of football glory; unlike many of his contemporaries, Ron actually made it happen!

Ron played at the highest level for several Sydney clubs – a no-holds-barred, crash-tackling, fire-breathing second rower who asked no quarter and gave none. Ron’s finest contribution came at Manly in 1987. He played in all 26 competition games plus finals and the Grand Final.

Ron remains the only player to be sin-binned twice in a Grand Final. He is also the only Bourke player to feature in a winning Manly Grand Final team.

Today, Ron takes Rugby League back to communities in the far west on a regular basis. He conducts rugby league workshops, knockout competitions and promotes healthy living through sport in communities as far flung as Wilcannia, Broken Hill, Bourke, Brewarrina and Walgett. He achieves all he does through teams of volunteers in each community, but it’s mostly through Ron’s drive and passion that these communities can know they are not forgotten.

Ron and his wife, Megan, and their family are a living, breathing example of reconciliation in action. Ron is an Indigenous Australian man from humble beginnings. Megan’s family farmed land west of Bourke. Childhood sweethearts, Ron and Megan’s love stands beacon-like for both black and white to see.

This remarkable couple would never have analysed their black/ white union, but in a town where bitterness, violence and racial unrest are rife, their love speaks loudly to all and sundry about other possibilities!

I am proposing to Bourke Council that it connects another Bourke “hero”, Mark Da-

Oval. This is the field where Ron played much of his Junior Rugby League and the statue would bring it into harmony with the oval named to honour Mark.

To give the project local input, I propose a steering committee of Bourke residents be formed. The committee will, as much as possible, be made up of interested black/white residents to reflect and celebrate the reconciliation aspect of the stories. Ron has been contacted about this and, although humbled by the gesture, he is fully supportive. His NRL contacts will prove to be invaluable.

This project has the potential to unite the community like never before. It is a story all Bourke residents can feel proud of. It can and will set Bourke on the road to better race relations. It is a community building exercise with the potential to set an outback town on an entirely new course.

Here’s hoping Heroes of the West gets government support to embark on a real game-changer.

Ducks introduce “The Donny”

By GEOFF MANN

ONE of the finest of the Dubbo Veteran’s Swimming Club will be honoured this Sunday when the Ducks swim for the first “Donny”.

Don Attenborough and wife Betty were long-serving members of the club until Don’s death two years ago. The man who grew up in Molong joined the club with classmate Matt Dover when the pair moved to Dubbo.

Ducks old and new gathered to celebrate Donny’s 90th in 2020. They flocked around to hear his stories of fishing in the Northern

Territory and yarns about life in the bush.

Ducks’ life member Judy Walsh is a great friend of Don and Betty.

“The event is the Don Attenborough Trophy race, a 4 x 25 metre Freestyle relay. Teams will be drawn out of the hat and the winners will be the combination that swims closest to their combined times.

“Don was such a valued member of the Ducks, a real treasure, and it would be great to have a good roll up to remember the very generous man and his de-

RaceMeeting...

lightful wife Betty.”

In last Sunday’s swim, Tom Gray had a bit of hard luck when he put in a big effort in the final of 25m Freestyle only to stop the clock -0.84 seconds early. This allowed slow and steady Henry Willcockson on +0.25 to collect the points from John Wherritt (+0.66).

Henry and Tom partnered in the 2 x 25m Breaststroke/Breaststroke but this time both broke their time. So did the secondto-touch pair Rob Rich and Lucy Taylor allowing Glen Smith and Marg Ross to claim the win.

Jacob Pearce (+0.12) took out the closest to time 75 metre Freestyle from Judy Walsh (+0.66) and Nicole Johnstone (+0.81).

Lucy Taylor had something to crow about after claiming the points in the closest to time 25m Backstroke on (+0.37) from Marg Ross (+0.41)

“It was good to have Lucy back on the pool deck again. Always enjoy having our friendly nursing sister joining the Ducks in the pool. Her mum and dad have been regulars and introduced the young Lucy to us many years ago,” Judy smiled.

THE downpour on Saturday cleared and the Combo bowlers enjoyed rolling up under blue sky and bright sunshine. The brisk breeze kept jackets and jumpers handy but like the die-hards who braved Mount Panorama, our bowlers showed their resilience in the face of the conditions.

Shirley Marchant, Julie Brown and Eric Satchell flew off the mat, chalking up six shots in four but Ray Strawhan, Frank Armstrong and Karen Greenhalge fought back with three doubles to level up at end seven. The lead changed again with Shirley and co ahead by four at 11 then Ray, Frank and Karen scored five of their own and led by one at 13. The big change came on the next when Shirley, Julie and Eric dropped a four to clinch the win 16 shots to 13.

In a low-scoring, close battle, Mary Perry, Doc Livingston and Col Cottee downed Pat Sherwin, Gordon Lummis and Graham Miller by 12 shots to 11. Mary and her boys led by one at the turnaround, scores were level after 10 and they broke away by four with two to go. Despite a late charge from Pat’s team, the leaders held on by a margin of one.

Dave Davis and Col Dover overcame an early deficit to lead John McKenzie and Matt Quill by four shots at the break. A triple and single on the last two ends had narrowed the gap!

Dave and Col drew out by seven then John and Matt rolled triples on

ends 11 and 12 and a single on 13 to level up. They drew ahead with one end to play but Dave and his partner struck a demoralising five on the last and claimed an enthralling match 18-15.

Carl New, Leo Balstad and Roger Sherwin defeated Ron McCauley, Doug Aldis and Phil Knight in another close match. The final score of 1513 was achieved with plenty of ebbs and flows. In the end it was more multiples by Carl and his mates that clinched the win.

Sue McCauley, Pete Bennison and Bryan O’Sullivan played cat and mouse with Zac Miller, Allan Stratford and John Cole in one of those “games of two halves”. Bryan’s side led at the turnaround then Zac’s crew rolled a triple on 10, followed by a big six shots, blasting them to a five shot buffer. That was the end of their scoring as Bryan’s team added four consecutive doubles and won 20 shots to 13; 11 ends to 5.

Al Andriske, Mel Giddings and Gaye Cottee trundled out against John Kennedy, Chris Strojny and Mick Strawhan but they raced away with their match 27-7, scoring on 11 of the 16 ends. There was no “safety car” for Big John and the boys, and the Holden-fuelled team took the flag in a masterful display!

 Winners – Allan Andriske, Mel Giddings and Gaye Cottee

Runners up – Sue McCauley, Pete Bennison and Bryan O’Sullivan

Resters – Bryan O’Sullivan, Leo Balstad and Roger Sherwin

Lucky Numbers – Gordon Lummis, Leo Balstad and Eric Satchell.

Young Roo named in Schoolboys Rugby tour

LEO Bassingthwaite came through the Dubbo Kangaroos Joeys program, won premierships in Central West, and represented the Junior Blues before heading to the Scots School in Sydney.

Inside centre Leo was named vice-captain for the tour of Japan last month.

The Australian Schoolboys won all three matches against the developing Japanese teams and Leo celebrated with a couple of tries in the last against Kokugakun Kuyagama.

Leo’s dad Matthew, who played for the Dubbo Roos first grade in the same position as Leo, was part of a Supporters Tour along with daughter Isla.

Outback Dragons paddled ahead of the flood

By GEOFF MANN

THE local paddlers are home from the NSW Dragon Boat Championships held at the International Rowing Centre at Penrith over the long weekend.

Six paddlers from the Dubbo Outback Dragons were a part of the Western Region team that competed at the State Championships.

“For this competition the State was split into six separate regions – Western, Southern, Northern, Central Coast, Sydney Metro and Sydney Bank Street,” team member Rhonda Betts told Photo News.

“Our Western team really took it to the other regions, and it was especially gratifying to finish in front of the two Sydney regions in several races.”

The Western Region team is represented by Forbes Lachlan Dragons, Bathurst Pan Dragons, Orange Colour City and the Dubbo Outback Dragons who get together at various (unflooded) venues to practise.

The Dubbo contingent is Dave Quigley, Hugh Irving, Lynnton Martin, Anna McLaughlin, Trish Taylor, Rhonda Betts.

“The Women’s 10s narrowly missed out on two wins, by 0.29 and 0.09 of a second! Barely a Dragon's whisker in it,” Rhonda added.

The local Dragons are now focusing on the Western Region Regatta to be held in Orange on November 6, then they will head on to the Pan Pacific Masters Games on the Gold Coast in the middle of the month.

DUBBO Kart Club hosted the NSW titles over the long weekend, taking advantage of the rare sunny days.

Our sports photographer Mel Pocknall was trackside to capture the action as minors to Senior classes went through their paces.

Frank Cross was part of the organising team that combined NSW and local officials to ensure everything ran smoothly.

“We had some of Australia’s best drivers from oth-

er states as well as NSW. It gave our local members the opportunity to compete against high class opposition and measure their skills,” Frank told Dubbo Photo News Xavier Raso led the field in the Rookies 2 C Grade. The buzz behind him would have been plenty of motivation to stay clear of the pack!

In the bottom picture Max Howard who was competing in the B Grade Tag 125 lights was drawing on his best Kenny Rogers voice as he sang, “You picked a

fine time to leave me loose wheel”!

The Championships were yet another example of the quality of track, the professionalism of Dubbo Kart Club and the absolute passion of drivers young and old who have been starved of competition through Covid and the like.

Brocklehurst awaits new drivers and spectators –just head north to Gilgandra, through Brocklehurst and you will be stunned at the magnificent locally developed complex on the left.
