By SHARON BONTHUYS MORE than 160 golfers teed off at the Inland Petroleum Cotton Charity Golf Day at the Trangie Golf Club on July 22. Last Friday’s event was a huge success for the organisers, the Macquarie Cotton Growers Association (MCGA). The annual golf tournament has been going for almost two decades, said Amanda Thomas, vice president of the MCGA. Over $60,000 has been donated to the communities of Warren, Trangie and Narromine, with the focus on supporting the golf clubs in each of the communities over the past three years. “We’ve been able to give $12,000 each to the golf clubs in those communities. We’re grateful to all the sponsors for help making the day a success,” Amanda said. “Three years ago we changed the format to enable non-golfers to play,” she said. That change reinvigorated the event and allowed many more people to enter. “We had the ‘Drought Buster’ event in Warren, then the Mouse Buster in Narromine last year. Now we’re in Trangie,” Amanda said, indicating there was no particular ‘Buster’ associated with this three-person ambrose

Amanda said the association was thrilled with the number of entrants and that from what she had seen out on course, everyone had a wonderful day. One of the challenges to the ﬁeld came at the 10th hole, where they had to don the “drink driver” goggles to take their shot and “hope for the best.” Tony Quigley’s advice on how to approach the 10th: “it’s best to do it with your eyes shut.”

Fiona Williamson had the important job of driving the drinks cart around the course. “I hope they appreciated it!” she told the Narromine Star. Bar manager Fuzzly, long time member and treasurer of the Trangie Golf Club, spoke to the Star just before the presentations. He described the Inland Petroleum Cotton Charity Golf Day as an excellent event for the club which has struggled, like many other rural golf clubs, in recent years.

“It’s been a fantastic day for everyone,” he said. This was reiterated by Scott MacDougall, club president, who thanked the MCGA for organising the charity golf day at Trangie. “Big days like this help keep the club going. Thank you all for coming and to the sponsors. “No one else can do it better than Trangie,” Scott said. At day’s end, the team of John McMaster, Kane Smith and Adam McIntosh walked away with ﬁ rst place, receiving their prize from Drew McCallum representing principal event sponsor, Inland Petroleum. Well done, MCGA and Trangie Golf Club, on staging a terriﬁc event. More photos: page 23

THE last days of palliative care patients at Timbrebongie House have been made easier thanks to a donation of $1,000 by the Narromine Garden Club. The club’s support has provided a table, two chairs and a wardrobe for the palliative care room which enables loved ones to stay and support their relatives as they approach end of life. Timbrebongie’s CEO, John Sevil, told the Narromine Star that the donation makes the palliative care room more homely for family visiting or staying with their relatives. “This generous donation adds comfort to the family visits,” John said. “It is a nice environment.” The palliative care room was completed in April 2022 and has been used twice since at the 47-bed facility, John said. The palliative care room has its own private bathroom as well as a private entrance from the side for family members to use. Timbrebongie House aims to build a screen outside the private entrance to help preserve privacy for

By SHARON BONTHUYS THE Trangie Action Group (TAG) has a busy few months ahead planning its December Christmas street party and a music event for March 2023. Both events have received funding from the Narromine Shire Council as part of the Reconnecting Regional NSW – Community Events Program. The funding and events were discussed at the TAG meeting on July 20. Part of Dandaloo Street will be blocked off for the December event and council will place

fairylights along the street and erect the town’s Christmas tree. The street party will provide food and entertainment which will be funded by the grant. The logistics of supplying the event will continue to be discussed and Terrie Milgate would like to hear from anyone keen to have a stall in the street markets. The March music event is also in the very early stages of planning and no further details are available at this point, other than the group is very excited about the prospect of staging a music event

in Trangie. Other points raised at the meeting include the Trangie weir project to improve facilities at the recreation area, and Margaret Wood is preparing a charity walk to raise funds for “hearing dogs” and the Trangie Cancer Support Group. Margaret aims to step out with anyone keen to take a walk around town and down near the Goan Waterhole if anyone is interested. TAG’s annual general meeting will take place next week and all are welcome to attend.

Changes coming to isolated patients’ travel support scheme ■ What it will mean for you

By SHARON BONTHUYS

IF you travel to Dubbo or beyond to attend specialist medical treatment, do you access the NSW Government’s Isolated Patients Travel and Accommodation Assistance Scheme (IPTAAS)? This scheme reimburses patients in regional and rural areas who are required to travel long distances to access specialist healthcare. The Narromine Star has heard that some shire patients are reluctant to access the scheme because it is deemed “too hard” to apply, and is “too limited” in what services are covered. We have also heard that the scheme is not well known in the community. “I think [IPTAAS] needs to be given a lot more publicity,” said Narromine Hospital Auxiliary president, Daphne Johnson. “A lot of people don’t seem to know about it.” The IPTAAS program is expanding next month and it may be worth reconsidering by patients not currently using the scheme. From August 2022, IPTAAS will provide coverage for some treatments that are not currently covered and will also increase the subsidies payable for accommodation and travel of 200km or more per week. “The NSW Government recently announced a $149.5 million dollar expansion of IPTAAS as part of the 2022-23 NSW Budget,” said a spokesperson for the Western NSW Local Health District

(WNSWLHD). “As part of this investment, patients seeking [support for travel to] non-commercial clinical trials, high risk foot clinics, highly specialised and publicly funded dental health clinics and ocularists will be eligible for assistance for the fi rst time while accommodation and travel subsidies are being increased,” the spokesperson said. In addition, NSW Health is streamlining some of the forms and application processes to make it easier for patients to make claims. This involves testing changes with consumers, the spokesperson said. “There will be further development work this year to improve these processes in collaboration with consumers and stakeholders and also promotion of the online claiming process that results in faster payments to patients,” the spokesperson said. From August 2022, the following will apply in IPTAAS. Accommodation subsidies will be paid at a rate of: f $40 per night if you are staying with family or friends or in Airbnb (up from $20 per night for singles or $40 per night with an escort). f $75 per night if you are staying in not-for-profit or commercial accommodation for the fi rst seven nights (up from $43 per night), and $120 per night from day eight onwards (up from $65 per night NFP and $105 for commercial). f the private vehicle subsidy rate will increase to 40 cents

per kilometre (up from 22 cents) f patients attending highrisk foot clinics, non-commercial clinical trials, highly specialised publicly funded oral health clinics in NSW and ocularists will be eligible to apply. For those who struggle to understand what forms need to be completed to access the scheme, assistance is available over the phone or in person at Dubbo Base Hospital. Referrals from your treating doctor are required to access IPTAAS and are valid for 24 months. This means if you need to travel multiple times for treatment over a period of time, the doctor’s referral lasts for 24 months. Should you need to travel by air to access specialist medical treatment, this can be requested by your doctor who then seeks an “endorsement code” from IPTAAS. Travel by public transport is also covered under the scheme. One reason why some patients do not access the IPTAAS system is because they cannot afford the upfront cost of travelling to and staying in Dubbo or beyond for treatment. The IPTAAS website states: “Please do not delay travel for appointments or treatment. If you are experiencing ﬁ nancial hardship, contact us on 1800 478 227 to discuss your situation.” Bulk billing of accommodation is available; patients will need to speak to IPTAAS staff about this.

Given the multitude of IPTAAS forms that are currently available online and from health facilities in WNSWLHD, it is strongly recommended that patients contact IPTAAS by phone and speak to the scheme’s staff members who are available to provide advice and guidance to patients. Alternatively, if you are in Dubbo you can visit the IPTAAS team in person at Dubbo Base Hospital. Look for the IPTAAS signs or ask hospital administration for directions to the right counter.

FAQs about patient travel What is IPTAAS? This is a NSW Government scheme providing financial assistance towards travel and accommodation costs when a patient needs to travel long distances for treatment that is not available locally. How do I apply? You can apply online or complete forms manually and submit via email, post or fax. Information is available on the NSW Health website. There is information about the process in the “For Patients” section of the IPTAAS website. I can’t understand the IPTAAS forms. Which one do I use? Call an IPTAAS staff member who will help guide you through the forms and the application process. If an escort travels with me does IPTAAS cover them? Talk to an IPTAAS staff member about travelling with an escort

and what the scheme will cover for escorts including travel and accommodation. Do I have to provide receipts? You may have to provide receipts. Talk to an IPTAAS officer about what you need to supply in support of your application. If I can’t afford to pay for transport to or accommodation in Dubbo or beyond to access my medical treatment, can IPTAAS help me? Talk to an IPTAAS officer about your individual situation as soon as possible. If I’m receiving assistance under workers compensation or other insurer for medical treatment, can I still access IPTAAS? Applicants must not be receiving, or eligible for, financial assistance for travel and accommodation from third party insurance or other Australian government services. Is patient travel available in other states or just NSW? All states and territories in Australia have what is called “Patient Assisted Travel Schemes” to help patients in rural and remote Australia with the costs of travel for specialist treatment. Each scheme is different in what it provides and how it works, but patients can access these systems across the country. z Have you sought patient travel assistance under IPTAAS? What has your experience been – good, bad or somewhere in between? Do you think you will seek assistance from IPTAAS in the future? Drop us a line and let us know.

Shire’s streets to be safer through better lighting By SHARON BONTHUYS IMPROVEMENTS to street lighting in Narromine Shire will help make it safer for pedestrians, cyclists and motorists travelling after dark. Narromine Shire has received $46,000 from the NSW Government to install and maintain street lighting through the

Burnt out car near Trangie linked to Nyngan thefts By TAHLIA SINCLAIR REPORTS of thefts from vehicles have ceased in Nyngan following the arrest of a 27-year-old Nyngan man on July 15. Over the past fortnight police received several reports of items stolen overnight from vehicles, as well as locals turning to Facebook to share their experiences. A similar spate of crimes occurred in town during 2020 and 2017, and police alleged it was the same individual. Sargent Tony Woods said in a statement that in both years following the individual’s arrest, crimes of this type fell to zero. Mr Wood said that on Wednesday, July 13, police were in pursuit of the man but were unsuccessful in detaining him. “Last night police were chasing this suspect around the streets of Nyngan but were unable to catch him. A car was stolen and appears to have been driven towards Dubbo. Police believe the suspect has left

town and is in hiding. After having crimes occur every night for the last few nights – hopefully we’ll have a break if we’re correct that the suspect has ﬂed town. The person is listed state-wide as wanted and will be caught before long.” The stolen car surfaced burnt-out in Trangie the following day. Mr Wood said in a statement issued to the community on Facebook that they believe the individual breaking into cars was the same person who stole the vehicle. “Last night (Thursday, July 14) was the ﬁ rst night in a week that we haven’t had any reports of cars being broken into. It’s still worth taking precautions like locking your car in case the suspect returns – or just as general safe practice.” On the afternoon of July 15, the 27-year-old was arrested in Dubbo and charged with several offences committed in both Nyngan and Dubbo.

This vehicle was left burnt-out on the side of the road near the Auscott facility south-east of Trangie.

Narromine vet surgery no closer to reopening

By SHARON BONTHUYS

NARROMINE’S veterinary clinic remains closed with no sign of reopening any time soon. The Narromine Star sought an update on the continued closure from the Fur Life Vet, Dubbo, which is part of the APIAM Animal Health group. Practice Manager Amanda Parker said the Narromine clinic currently remains closed due to a nationwide veterinary shortage. “We are doing our best to attract vets to our area but unfortunately without the vets we can’t return the service to the Narromine clinic at the moment. “We are continuing to provide care for our Narromine clients through the Dubbo clinic,” she said. “When the opportunity arises for us to return a regular service to Narromine we will let the community know.” Rural and regional veterinarians expressed

concerns about recruitment, retention and other issues impacting the industry at the Australian Veterinary Association (AVA) conference in late May on the Gold Coast. Dr Cristy Secombe, head of veterinary and public affairs for the AVA, told the Narromine Star the AVA highlighted the skill shortage in the veterinary profession at the conference and advocated for assistance through its election platform. “With the new government in place we are continuing to highlight this issue,” Dr Secombe said. We asked the AVA if it could tell us how many vets are needed across the country and in particular, in central west NSW. “This is a challenging question to answer and requires complex modelling that is dependent on data not available at the moment, [but] we are working towards answering this question,” she said. “Of immediate concern

is trying to reduce the number of vets leaving the profession early. Data the AVA collected in 2021 indicated in the next year four per cent of Australian veterinarians will leave the profession and nine per cent may leave in the next 12 months. “We know that this will further impact the total workforce as time to fi ll veterinary vacancies is increasing. In the 2018 AVA workforce survey, 34 per cent of vacancies took over six months to fi ll and in 2021, 52 per cent of jobs took over six months to fi ll, and 37 per cent of jobs [took over] 12 months to fi ll,” Dr Secombe said.

The AVA suggests that recruitment and retention of vets in rural and remote environments is a complex issue. “The reality is people want a career that is both rewarding and sustainable. It is only when both these needs are met that there will be good retention,” Dr Secombe said.

Former Apex Club members donate to good causes

Contributed by EWEN JONES

FORMER members of the Narromine Apex Club gathered at the Narromine United Services Memorial Club on Wednesday, July 20, 2022. The club was formed in 1957 and sadly closed in 2012, but still had some funds left in the bank. Following the recent passing of Richard Duff, also a former member of the Narromine Apex Club, a donation of $500 was made to the Chris O’Brien Lifehouse facility as requested by Richard’s family. Following discussions with the Narromine Cancer Support Group, the former Apex members have also decided to purchase a syringe driver, valued at around $2000. This specialist medical device will allow people who are in their last stages of cancer to access pain relief in their own home. The syringe driver will be loaned out and monitored by NSW Health for people who choose to remain at home.

Narromine Star comments

WELL done, remaining members of the now-defunct Narromine Apex Club on your very thoughtful donations to support cancer sufferers. Not only have you supported an organisation that is dedicated to treating and researching cancer, the Chris O’Brien Lifehouse, but the syringe driver will also help those in need to manage their pain at home. This is an incredible act of community service and a ﬁtting tribute to the late Richard Duff, who passed away recently from cancer. Thank you, former Apex members, and well done!

Works in the pipeline to repair Dandaloo Street level crossing McNamara Lane level crossing also of concern

By SHARON BONTHUYS EARLIER this month the Narromine Star reported residents’ concerns about recent changes to the Dandaloo Street railway crossing in Narromine which have left wide gaps between the rails and fi ll. Of particular concern, the “bone-jarring” ride for motorists and potential difficulties for pedestrians being able to safely cross with wheelchairs and walking frames. In our July 7 edition, an Australian Rail Track Corporation (ARTC) spokesperson told the Narromine Star that the organisation was working through repairs to improve the condition of the crossing, and that further works were being scoped to inform short and long term solutions. Works to improve the crossing commenced on July 26. On the subject of the graffiti on the railway station and outbuildings which the Narromine Star fi rst raised after Easter and again last week, the spokesperson said that: “Narromine Station is a locally significant heritage asset and is currently maintained by ARTC. “ARTC is still determining what measures will be taken in relation to the graffiti at the station.” The Narromine Star will continue to monitor these issues and report back periodically. We have also taken the opportunity to investigate another level crossing of concern which we have reported on separately in this issue.

The lot is approximately 1694m2 and is zoned RU1 Primary Production. This property in Tomingley is owned by Narromine Shire Council.

TERRY Willis crosses the McNamara Lane level crossing near the Narromine aerodrome several times a day. The route connects Dandaloo Road with the Mitchell Highway and is popular with locals as the shortest route into Narromine. It also is favoured by heavy vehicles like wheat trucks that use it to skirt the urban area if passing through or moving between properties. When Terry saw the Narromine Star’s article earlier this month about concerns with the Dandaloo Street level crossing, he felt compelled to draw attention to the current condition of the McNamara Lane level crossing. The resident of 18 years ﬁrst expressed concern about the crossing to the Australian Rail Track Corporation (ARTC) about three years ago, to no avail. As our photos attest, the crossing is in a poor state with holes in the tarmac on both approaches and in the ﬁ ll in between the tracks. “I would like to see it repaired,” Terry said. “Everyone uses it. It needs proper resurfacing, not a bit of a patch up here and there.” Terry said the Narromine Shire Council had done a great job keeping McNamara’s Lane repaired, and it was a pity the heavily-used level crossing could not receive the same attention from the asset owner. “If you go over the crossing towing a trailer, you should hear the bang, crash it makes,” he said. Terry said he would like to see something installed at the McNamara Lane level crossing that is similar to the Backwater Road level crossing. That location has heavy-duty metal plates on both approaches and in the middle of the tracks. The Narromine Star has sought further information from Transport for NSW about the ownership and current state of the McNamara Lane level crossing. We also took the opportunity to investigate the other level crossings in and around Narromine, including Backwater Road, McGrane Way, Dandaloo Road, Dandaloo Street, and Manildra Street. With the exception of the Dandaloo Street level crossing which is currently being repaired by ARTC, the rest of those level crossings are in reasonably good condition. f What do you think about the state of level crossings in the Narromine Shire?

Expressions of interest will be received up to 5pm on Wednesday 10th August 2022.

Political News & Opinion Largest ever pavement upgrade of Newell begins

COULTON’S ULTON’S CATCH TCH UP Comment ment by K COULTON, MARK Federal ral Member for Parkes arkes

Foot and mouth risk rises THE detection of viral foot and mouth fragments on products brought in from Indonesia and China last week was a wakeup call and a worrying reminder of just how easy it would be for the virus to enter our country. In response to these detections, Labor has ﬁ nally acquiesced to repeated calls by the Nationals to introduce sanitised foot mats at international airports. A move more than two weeks overdue. Thousands of people have come into Australia from Indonesia since FMD was found to have spread to Bali and Labor’s delay in implementing this simple but important measure is frightening. The Labor Government must urgently pursue stronger measures such as offering a 3D X-ray scanner to Indonesia, so biosecurity officers know what is in passenger luggage before it gets here. Labor is failing this basic test on biosecurity and it’s time to toughen up and take control, particularly as the situation in Indonesia escalates.

WORK has now commenced along the ﬁ rst two sections of the $261 million Newell Highway upgrade between Narrabri and Moree. This includes an eight-kilometre stretch about three kilometres south of Moree, and a 4.5 kilometre stretch about 46 kilometres north of Narrabri, through Bellata. Unfortunately, I wasn’t able to attend the sod turn to mark the beginning of work last week, but I’m looking forward to seeing work progress on this project – the largest ever pavement upgrade of the Newell Highway. The upgrade involves building entirely new sections of road as well as ﬁve new overtaking lanes, two new heavy vehicle rest areas, intersection upgrades and multiple new bridge-sized culverts for improved drainage. The former Coalition Government invested $205.7 million into this major upgrade because we recognise how important this stretch of highway is to our nation’s productivity. This upgrade will complement the work currently happening on the Inland Rail between Narrabri and Moree and, once complete, will improve access to the future Moree Special Activation Precinct and Northern NSW Inland Port at Narrabri, helping our region unlock its full potential. more investment in regional community infrastructure, and programs that will make a big difference to life in the Narromine region. I strongly encourage councils and community groups to seek funding for projects in the region that improve the quality of life for locals. Previous rounds of the program have funded projects such as a playground in Trangie, upgrades to Cale Oval in Narromine, and public toilets in both Trangie and Narromine. I am thrilled that the NSW Government is delivering on its commitment of supporting investment in regional and rural communities, helping to make our region an even better place to live and visit! IT was great to join Western NSW Local Health District CEO Mark Spittal last week to officially open the multi-storey car park at Dubbo Hospital! The project will provide

Garden club abuzz with Margie’s beekeeping insights Contributed by ANNE HARMER THE monthly meeting of the Narromine Garden Club was held at the Anglican Church Hall on July 22. Twenty members were present for the shared lunch. Our guest speaker was Margie Fenwick who spoke of her beekeeping passion. It was very interesting to hear of Margie and Michael’s journey from buying a hive to the production of their honey. What a wonderful introduction into the life of being a beekeeper. From the Queen Bee emerging from a cell after 16 days, to the tasks of the male and female bees, to how they end up with the honey. The raffle was kindly donated by Margie and won by Pam Hamilton. Many thanks, Margie, for a fascinating insight into the life of a bee community. Our August meeting will tour Heather Bootle’s garden in Narromine. Contact us for location details, date and time.

Cupcake and cinnamon scroll fundraiser for Quinn By SHARON BONTHUYS THE Narromine Christian School has contributed to the fundraising in support of young Dubbo resident Quinn Wiatkowski, 4, who has been diagnosed with acute lymphoblastic leukaemia. “With the kindness and generosity of one of our school families we were able to help raise money for this very worthy cause,” said Cath Chapman. “The students and school families ran a cupcake and cinnamon scroll fundraiser. The day was a

huge success and the whole school community joined in to wish the Wiatkowski family lots of love and support through their donation. “A special thank you must be given to Mrs Stacy Bohm. Her efforts and organisational skills made this day a success,” Cath said. The school’s stellar efforts have contributed to the more than $16,000 raised so far in support of the Wiatkowski family as Quinn’s medical treatment continues. Well done, Narromine Christian School, and we wish all the best to Quinn and her family.

Corridor connections for communities Contributed by COLIN HAMILTON, CHAIR, MACQUARIE VALLEY LANDCARE GROUP ON June 16-17, 2022, Macquarie Valley Landcare Group (M2100) successfully completed its latest project – “Corridor Connections for Communities”. Funded under the “Resilient Communities Small Grants” program via the NSW Local Land Services (LLS), three events were conducted in two local government areas (Narromine Shire and Warren Shire). A total of 36 people attended the events with some travelling from over 1.5 hours away from the towns to participate in the presentations and discussions. The focus of the days was the importance of identifying, protecting and enhancing the remaining vegetation in or on community-owned corridors in providing linkages across the landscape to ensure continued dual beneﬁts for ecosystem function and food production. The lead speaker and presenter at the events was Adjunct Professor Peter Ampt who guided discussions on the local relevance and importance of plant and ani-

mal species. The role that those natural assets play in providing ecosystem services to farming areas was covered extensively and the potential for further utilisation of native plants and animals was discussed. The importance of protecting Aboriginal heritage values in the corridors was incorporated into the presentations as well as ‘bush tucker’ business opportunities. Ongoing threats and challenges to maintaining and broadening corridors across the country were brought up in a number of the formal and subsequent informal discussions. Macquarie Valley Landcare Group (M2100) was pleased to facilitate/coordinate these events and to have the opportunity to bring external expertise to our valley in order to continue community support work. We thank LLS for the funding opportunity, generous support and guidance in planning the workshops. Linkages with LLS staff and programs are an important long-term collaboration for which we are Adjunct Profession Peter Ampt discussing ecological communities within our corridors with local ecologist Andrew Knop.

Gymnastics still a goer but numbers decline By SHARON BONTHUYS

The youngest gymnastics students are enjoying their class in Narromine. PHOTO: FOCUS GYMNASTICS.

GYMNASTICS started up in Narromine earlier this year following keen interest from the community and a commitment by Dubbo-based Focus Gymnastics to run the program. Coordinator Andrew Bassett told the Narromine Star that despite a busy start up period across terms one and two, participant numbers have since declined. “Like all great things that happen in small country towns we are encouraging the community to get behind this amazing service and book in for term three as numbers have been on the decline,” he said. “We understand that winter often sees many kids head to winter sports but please remember that we send three to ﬁve coaches each week to work with the kids in a safe and structured environment. “Coaches love watching the smiles on the kids’ faces each week as they push themselves to try new skills,” he said. The gymnastics program at

Narromine caters for children from 18 months old to 14 years and allows children to develop their gross motor and ﬁ ne motor skills. It operates from the Narromine Sport and Fitness Centre and has a full range of gymnastics equipment. “Feedback has been really positive,” Mr Bassett said. “The kids are having fun, learning new skills, and most of all are active again after two years of not a lot of sport.” Mr Bassett said the team will be holding a “gym jam party” later this term to enable children to have a fun night with fun gymnastic games. “We are working on some displays where we can show the community how great the sport is and how well the kids are doing.

Contributed by JENNY BALLHAUSEN, NARROMINE SHOW COMMITTEE CONGRATULATIONS to Maddy Preston who was announced as Narromine’s 2022 AgShows NSW Young Woman in front of a sold out crowd at the show ball last Saturday night. Maddy has spent almost all of her life in Narromine and recently graduated from Charles Sturt University, Wagga Wagga, in animal science. She says she loves the community spirit of Narromine and is very much looking forward to the next Narromine show. The pavilion is one of her favourite parts of the show and as a keen amateur photographer, she plans on entering some photos. The three judges all spoke of the high calibre of all ﬁve entrants and were impressed by their local knowledge, inter-

view skills and ability to speak on the night. Dugald Saunders, Member for Dubbo and one of the judges, said it was a difficult decision for the judges, but a lovely difficult decision to have to make. The other judges, Molly Wright, the 2021 AgShows NSW Young Woman and a Peak Hill local, and Lucy Colleridge, a Royal Agricultural Society of NSW Rural Achiever ﬁ nalist, encouraged all contestants to continue to get involved not only in the local show but in the community. Runner-up was Jen Corderoy and the remaining entrants were Emily Sharwood, Zarli McAnerney and Ellie Hamilton. All the young ladies showed passion about their studies and or work and a commitment to the community of Narromine. Elissa Simmons, the 2021 Narromine AgShow NSW Young Woman, ably hosted the

evening. In a reflective speech she said she was surprised at how much she got out of the time even though it was for only one year. She said “I learnt and practised valuable life skills such as public speaking, interview skills and networking. I was able to attend a development weekend in Dubbo where I was taught a range of useful lessons. Some of these I have adopted into my life, knowing they will help me professionally once I fi nish University. “The experience also meant that I got to meet some inspiring people. This included our Australia Day ambassador Andrew Lock, who is Australia’s most accomplished high altitude mountaineer. What he had achieved in his life was nothing short of astonishing.” Elissa also encouraged all the girls to look back on this experience positively and see how it has benefited them re-

Sarah Weir, one of the organisers, was thrilled with the success of the night. “A sell out crowd, ﬁve awesome entrants, entertainment by Isaac Compton and the

Rural and regional vets join landholders on the biosecurity frontline By SHARON BONTHUYS WITH biosecurity including foot and mouth disease (FMD) and lumpy skin disease (LSD) very topical at the moment, the Australian Veterinary Association (AVA) has been actively involved in emergency animal disease (EAD) preparedness. Several national workshops have taken place during July 2022 in Canberra and a range of online training is available for veterinary teams via the Animal Health Australia website. The AVA and Australian Cattle Veterinarians have also partnered with the Department of Agriculture, Fisheries and Forestry to produce a “differential diagnosis” chart for LSD with a chart for FMD also being developed, the AVA’s website states.

The Narromine Star asked Dr Cristy Secombe, head of veterinary and public affairs for the AVA, how prepared Australian vets are, particularly those working in rural, regional and remote areas, for the possibility of these diseases emerging in agricultural/livestock areas. “Vets are trained in critical thinking and problem solving, they are excellent at investigating disease and looking for the unexpected,” she said. “For this to happen vets need to be getting on farms and working with farmers to maximise animal health and welfare and make sure disease is identiﬁed early. “We strongly encourage farmers to engage with veterinarians in all aspects of animal health and welfare, particularly in the area of protecting their animals from biosecurity risks,” Dr Secombe said.

With landholders and rural, regional and remote vets on the “frontline” watching out for these diseases, the AVA said that biosecurity is a shared responsibility. “If landowners have animals showing signs of illness, they need to contact their local veterinarian to investigate,” Dr Secombe said. “Veterinarians are an important link in the biosecurity chain around Australia that keeps us free of diseases such as FMD. To keep that link strong, the veterinary profession needs support to keep vets rurally. “This could be done through government supported programs where vets and farmers work together to achieve best possible production and animal welfare outcomes,” Dr Secombe said.

great setting at Soul has added up to a wonderful night!” Sarah said. “Given the last 12 months (the 2021 lockdown occurred just after the 2021 ball), the committee were excited to see all the tickets sell very quickly.”

Classroom News

Cultural workshops for Narromine Christian School students By CATH CHAPMAN NARROMINE Christian School students return to the classroom this week. The term ahead looks to be another one full of learning, sport, drama and creative lessons. Last term over a series of weeks, all classes at Narromine Christian School experienced a cultural workshop at the Western Plains Zoo, Dubbo. In the workshop, students learnt about the importance of animals and Dreaming Stories to Aboriginal people, their culture and their connection to Country. All of the students were enlightened by the experience and some friendly encounters with very special animals was something the students won’t forget.

Police message: look out for pedestrians

By SHARON BONTHUYS ORANA Mid-Western Police have a message for motorists: don’t let your drive affect lives. The police are asking motorists to look out for pedestrians, to slow down, and be aware of their surroundings while driving. Motorists should not assume that pedestrians have seen them approaching, or will wait for motorists to pass before

stepping out onto a roadway or signed crossing. “Drivers must always give way to pedestrians crossing the road, even if there is no marked pedestrian crossing,” police warn. “Be mindful that vulnerable pedestrians may need extra time to cross. Older people may be slower and children can be difficult to see and may act unpredictably.” Visibility is also something

to be mindful of when driving. “Be aware that pedestrians are hard to see at night and in poor weather,” police warn. In the Narromine Shire, pedestrian crossings and pedestrian refuges are located in several locations across Narromine and Trangie. Pedestrian crossings, also known as “zebra” or “wombat” crossings depending on their design, are clearly marked and signed.

Pedestrian refuges are concrete structures in the middle of a roadway designed to help pedestrians cross the road safely in stages. The refuges may be in locations together with a marked crossing, or independently in less busy streets where they also serve as a traffic calming device. Tips from police include: f Slow down on suburban streets – the faster you go the longer it takes to stop.

f Stay under the speed limit and drive to the conditions (i.e slow down if there is poor visibility or bad weather). f Be aware of your surroundings – are you approaching a school or shopping centre where people may be present? f Be aware that intoxicated people may be near licensed premises. f Take care when parking or performing manoeuvres like U-turns.

Narromine Hospital AGM celebrates the year’s achievements Contributed by VICKI GAINSFORD AT the Annual General Meeting (AGM) held earlier last week there were no changes to the Executive Committee. President Daphne Johnson, vice-president John Shearman, treasurer Julie Davis and secretary Anne Shearman all accepted nominations to remain in office for another year. President Daphne thanked the Committee for its extraordinary efforts over the last 12 months and acknowledged the bonus of having a local newspaper to report to, to inform the community, not only of what the Auxiliary has been raising money to purchase for the hospital, but also what is happening in our hospital. Pharmacist Felicity Roberts was guest speaker, enlightening the group to the variety of services that are offered by our local pharmacy. In addition to the dispensing of medicines, these services include blood pressure and cholesterol checks, vaccinations, audiologist visits, medication reviews and free delivery of medicines from shop to home each afternoon. At the meeting a membership badge was presented to Des Lincoln (who’s actually been attending our meetings for quite some time!) and a certiﬁcate to Mavis Leak for more than ﬁve years of service to the auxiliary. Thanks and acknowledgement was also extended to Jodi Browning and Nikki McCutcheon who are part of

Sport Gainsford wins ladies golf at Narromine Contributed by DALE HARDING LAST Wednesday was another cold and windy day. We played the fourth round of the monthly medal. The 18-hole winner was Vicki Gainsford with 76 nett. The 9-hole winner in B grade was Anne Harmer who scored 37 nett, and the C grade winner was Fran Crawford, who we welcomed back to golf after undergoing knee surgery. The ball winners were Bev Woods, 38 nett, and Wendy Jeffery, also 38 nett. Nearest the pins were won by Vicki Gainsford, Jenny Fitzgerald and Wendy Jeffery. The drawn card was won by Peta Ferrari. Saturday was another cold and windy day. We played for a

The ball winners were Jeanette O’Brien with 39 nett and Gail White also on 39 nett. Nearest the pins were won by Vicki Gainsford, Michelle Ashdown and Jean Richardson.

We also held our monthly presentation of trophies and had lunch. On Saturday we are playing a stableford event for a trophy donated by Barbie Tuck. See you on the golf course.

Club fours, pennants and social bowls Contributed by RICK BOHM ANOTHER interesting week to report on, with social bowls Thursday and Sunday, a pennant trial on Saturday and more to come this week. Yes folks, just like the weather, it’s warming up. This Saturday the ﬁ nal of the Club Fours will be played, thus putting the major/ minor pairs ﬁ rst round to the following weekend. Window tappers are advised to take their seats early as this match looks beautiful. The combatants are Peter Cross, Don Sullivan, Adam Jermyn and Skipper John Edwards, who will take on the team of Clifton Harris, Bill Wilkie, James Coen and Kevin Rider. As I said, it looks like a great tussle and may the luck be shared. The Pennant Trial last Saturday in Dubbo resulted in an overall loss by just one shot, so considering we were missing a couple of

Narromine Juniors in Dubbo last Sunday, Hugo Duff, Lachlan Watts, Annabelle Gibbs and Huxley Bock.

players, all in all a good hit out. The selectors thank those players who jumped and helped out on the day. Nominations for the next matches have been posted, and we’re off to Trangie on July 31. Social bowls this week saw Peter Pearce, John Silk and Greg Wright claiming the top spot on the podium, whilst that formidable trio of Arnold Gillespie, Col Hume and Peter Cross got the runners up cheque. Sunday morning saw Joey Mikulic and Henry Buttsworth get all the chocolates, and the jackpot prize pool got a few more shekel added to its coffers. The Club will be conducting its annual Gub Thorne Day in late September, so keep that in mind. Well that’s it for another week. Hope to catch up with you up at the “Bowly” sometime soon, but until then, keep ‘em rolling.

Williams recorded a four under par 66 on Saturday and followed with a two over 72 on Sunday to lead the ﬁeld in the major club event of the year. Some 23 players faced the starter for the event which was played in comfortable conditions over the weekend. Williams leads the ﬁeld with a score of 138 from defending champion, Tony Mann, by two shots. Mann carded 71 on Saturday and a one under 69 on Sunday for a total of 140. Third place after the two rounds is Nathan Walker 72, 72-144, and in fourth place is Duane Mann on 147 with

Sunday: Handicap Nett Ash Bullock ﬁ rst, Duanne Mann second, NTP ninth Glen Smyth, 17th Kale Bock, long drive 16th Henry Butterworth. In all a top weekend of golf and good luck to all those playing in the ﬁ nal rounds of the championships to be played over 18 holes this weekend. The Junior Clinic will be on again this Sunday. The Juniors had a trip to Dubbo last week where they had a hit on the Dubbo course. Good experience for our up and coming juniors. Did hear some had a little problem handling the

grass greens. Finally, the major veterans’ event of the year is on next week! Read more about it here and in the classiﬁeds. It is hoped the weather holds for these major golf events coming up. That wraps it up for this week. See you all at the 19th.

Major veteran golfers’ event on next week in Narromine By SHARON BONTHUYS NARROMINE’S own golﬁ ng commentator, the evergreen Norm Lewis, is very excited about the major veteran golfers’ event of the year, which is on local greens next week. The men’s Open tournament is to be held on Thursday, August 4, at the Narromine Golf

Club. “Entries for this event will be taken from 8.00 am with the hit off at 9.00 am,” Norm told the Narromine Star. The entry fee for the 18-hole event is $30.00, which includes morning tea on arrival and lunch. “The event is open to all fully paid up members of veteran golf clubs throughout the area,” Norm said. The ladies aren’t left behind though, in case you did wonder. “There will be a special 18hole event for ladies in conjunction with the Men’s Open,” Norm said. The Narromine Star will be on site for the presentations and will bring you a wrap up of the action in a future issue. For further details, see the ad on page 3.

RACING NG ORT REPORT By COLIN HODGES DUBBO trainer Michael Mulholland is renowned for getting the best from gallopers joining his stable and the latest success story Sea Of Flames made it three wins in succession when winning the Imperial Hotel Winter Cup on Saturday, July 23 at Coonabarabran. Sea Of Flames came to Mulholland as a maiden class performer after 13 outings and from ﬁve starts for the Dubbo trainer has recorded three wins, a second and ﬁ fth placing. In the 1600 metres Winter Cup (Benchmark 50 Handicap) Sea Of Flames settled behind the leaders but when given more rein by apprentice Jake

Sea Of Flames wins Imperial Hotel Winter Cup at Coonabarabran Barrett cruised to the front when turning for home. Thereafter, Sea Of Flames ($2.40 favourite) cleared out to win by almost six lengths from Dancing Rachel (Jake Pracey-Holmes, $4.20) and Hibern (Clayton Gallagher, $16). With an impressive return to racing after a spell, the Ivor Trapman, Dubbo owned Dubbo Wanderer was the ﬁ rst leg of a double for Michael Mulholland. Dubbo Wanderer won over 1100 metres at Wellington and Orange earlier this year and had sufficient early pace to lead a handy ﬁeld in the 900 metres Princess Saskia Class Three Handicap. When challenged, Dubbo Wanderer ($2.90) responded to draw clear and score by over a length from Small Town

(Brooke Stower, $2.45 fav.) and Deepstar (Anna Roper, $5.50). Gilgandra trainer Kieren Hazleton also had a winning double, Not Too Bad and Rupicasso, both being ridden by Andrew Banks. Quest For Honour (Clayton Gallagher, $7) took the lead in the straight but was unable to hold off the fast ﬁ nishing Not Too Bad ($3.60) which won by a length while Desert Rose (Anna Roper, $3.40 fav) made ground from a long way back to ﬁ ll third place in the 1600 metres Have A Schooner In Coona Class One and Maiden Plate. Last start Gilgandra winner Rupicasso was again ridden by Andrew Banks and starting as a $5 equal favourite in the 1200 metres Coonabarabran Kookas Rugby Club BM 50

Handicap powered home from a rearward position to beat Toldyas I’m Lucky (Jake Pracey-Holmes, $5.50) and Easier (Anna Roper, $11). Carrying the well-known orange and blue colours of Rodger and Nerida Atkinson from Yeoval, the Clint Lundholm, Dubbo-trained Yallah Sunrise (Anna Roper, $10) stormed down the outside from near the back of the big ﬁeld to win the 1200 metres Ronald Munns Memorial Maiden Plate from Sistine Queen (Clayton Gallagher, $4.80) and Hutchy’s Dream (Angela Cooper, $31). Supporters of the Sue Grills stable at Tamworth were off to a good start when the heavily backed Pull The Tail won the opening event, the 900 metres Justin Antal Maiden Handicap.

Fourth early, Pull The Tail (Brooke Stower, $12 to $5),on the rails, led for home and was a runaway winner by over six lengths from Zoisite (Andrew Banks, $3.20 fav.) and Rust (Angela Cooper, $26). Wyong trainer Stephen “Crusher” Farley was rewarded for the trip to Coonabarabran when Heredero (Jake Pracey-Holmes, $3.40 fav.) raced in the fi rst five then fi nished well to account for the leader Eightsides (Ashleigh Stanley, $16) and Northern Conqueror (Tony Cavallo, $14) in the 1200 metres Myra Cain Memorial Benchmark 50 Handicap. Following the successful meeting on Saturday the Coonabarabran club is now planning for the Coonabarabran Cup meeting in October.

Gerries golf notes: Win for Mitchell Contributed by NORM LEWIS THE weekly Gerries golf competition July 20,was won by Bruce Mitchell with an excellent round of 23 points. Bruce has missed his golf for several weeks due to some health problems, but he returned in great

form to take the event and also win the NTP competition. Weather conditions improved and it saw a ﬁeld of eleven players hit off in the weekly event. Those who did play appreciated the pleasant conditions on the back nine. Bruce also collected six red

Optima golf balls for his win in the NTP. Runner up on the day was Greg Kearines with 21 points, who has also had a short break from golf. The *Veggie* winner Ron Green, won the NAGA prize with 13 points. In all it was an enjoyable afternoon of golf.

To complete the day only one game of pool was played between Greg Kearines and Bob Fletcher against Chris Harding and Terry Willis. Play was very competitive with the black ball covered up and hard to get a shot at. Eventually the form players of the comp were

able to clean up the table. Harding sank the black and he and Willis were able to retain the title they won last week.

You can ﬁ nd us on the green every Wednesday afternoon. See you all on the tee or in the clubhouse.

Close games in round 13

Contributed by BRYSON LUFF

NARROW wins to Gilgandra, Narromine and Dunedoo highlighted the fact that the struggle for semi-fi nal spots in the 2022 Christie and Hood Castlereagh League competition is intense. The narrowest of losses can have a large impact in terms of positions on the competition ladder. Both Gulgong and Coonamble are testimony to this, with four-point losses to Gilgandra and Narromine respectively, seeing them now sitting just outside the top four. Both the Terriers and the Bears have been leapfrogged on the table by the Dunedoo Swans who had to work hard to overcome the Baradine Magpies in Baradine before they went on to record a very important 26 to 18 win. Playing at Gilgandra for the Boronia Cup, the Gulgong Terriers just fell short in a match that saw the scores level at 12 all at half time after the Panthers had shot out to an early 6-nil lead courtesy of a converted try to their lock Brandon Hammond who speared over from close range in the fi fth minute. Six minutes later it was to be his opposite, James Morrison, who touched down in similar fashion to lock it up at 6-all. On the back of some good field position afforded by a number of penalties given away by Gulgong, Gilgandra’s centre George Alchin benefited from some slick ball movement and was able to crash his way over to see the scoreboard go out to 12 points to 6 in favour of the home side. In the tit for tat game, Gulgong centre Logan Ruming fi nished off a passing rush in the fi nal minute before the break. The second half saw Gul-

With the conversion being successful, they held a six-point lead. That lead was, however, short lived when Gilgandra’s five-eight, David Smith, latched on to an intercept on the halfway line and sprinted away to touch down under the posts to lock it up at 18-all. Both teams were then called upon to defend grimly at times. It wasn’t until an awkward kick was allowed to bounce, and somehow Alchin was able to come up with possession and shrug off a couple of defenders in a 15-metre run to the line, to make it 22 to 18 with seven minutes remaining. This was to be the fi nal score after what was a tense fi nish. At Coonamble, the Bears suffered a 24 to 20 loss to the

Narromine Jets after both sides had scored four tries. The losses by Gulgong and Coonamble sets up an epic encounter between the two clubs at Gulgong this Saturday. Both sides currently sit equal ﬁ fth on the ladder with 28 competition points, just one point adrift of Dunedoo. The last time the two teams met it was an 18 all draw. Apart from that result, if statistics are anything to go by there is very little between the two sides, with both of them having lost three games by six points or less, plus each has lost one game by eight and one game by ten points. The only minor difference is the for and against points where Coonamble holds a slight advantage having a points differential of +48 as opposed to Gulgong’s +38. Both teams will be desperate for the win and hoping that Cobar gets over the top of

Dunedoo at Dunedoo in another game that has major bearing on the composition of the top four. The Swans have only lost one game at home this year, that being to Gilgandra in round 10, but they will need to be at their best against the Roosters who are the competition favourites. The remaining game will see Narromine at home to Baradine, with the Jets needing a win to retain third place on the ladder. The League Tag game at Cale Oval will feature ﬁ rst versus second with the home side out to bounce back from what was a big 30 to 10 loss to Coonamble last Saturday.
