By HARRIET GILMORE A NEW music project by two well-known local groups, is set to showcase the region and share the unique stories of the Warren Shire and its people. Warren Chamber Music Festival is teaming-up with DUST Music, featuring Golden Guitar winning musicians Greg, Bonnie, and youngest sister, Millie Storer, together with Frances Evans, to write and record songs based on local stories and folklore. To this end, the group will host a range of “story-telling sessions” in local establishments in Warren, Nevertire, and Collie where the musicians hope to entice some good local “yarns” and other stories, before turning them into songs and recording an album with renowned Australian producer, James Gillard.

By NICHOLAS CROKER THE community marched and crowds gathered at the Warren Cenotaph for services at dawn and at 11am for this year’s ANZAC Day commemorations: to remember

and honour those that fought and died for our country, those that returned damaged or bruised in mind, body, and spirit, and those that continue to serve our nation.Trevor Wilson officiated the service after a march from the War-

ren Services Club. Trevor Wilson officiated the 11am service. He began by welcoming Mayor Milton Quigley and guests, and a special welcome to the members of the 1st 19th unit of the Royal NSW Regiment Dubbo, also

known as the Bushman Rifles. “Corporal Matthew Stewart, Corporal Fabian Bruce, Lance Corporal Mark Ryan, Private Banjamin Costa, and Private Gregory Sheperd,” he named. Continued page 10

Coonamble Rodeo and Campdraft President Paul Wheelhouse and Secretary Steve Butler are gearing up for another massive event this June long weekend. PHOTO: SUPPLIED. Contributed WITH one of the biggest shows in the Western Plains less than two months away, organisers of the Coonamble Rodeo and Campdraft are looking to push crowd numbers further than ever. “We do it because we love doing it,” Coonamble Rodeo President Paul Wheelhouse said, who heads the volunteer committee who manage the whole event. “Every year we try to improve it and make it a better show.” He expects up to 4000 spectators and competitors in Coonamble over the June long weekend, more than doubling the town’s population over three days. Over 1000 cowboys and cowgirls will enter the rodeo and camp draft, with prize dollars stretching into the tens of thousands. “We pay out in excess of $90,000 in prize money,” Coonamble Rodeo and Campdraft Secretary Steve Butler said. “A competitor in the rodeo could win between five and six thousand dollars in an event.” There’ll be no lack of action over the weekend as riders steel their nerves for roughstock events including steer wrestling, calf roping and, of course, the bronc and bull riding, Central West Slopes and Plains area: Mostly sunny.

where contestants have to stay on the beasts for eight seconds with one hand in the air. Show-goers seeking a little less physical contact will have the campdraft events starting from Friday lunchtime. That’s where riders have to separate a steer or heifer from a yard with six to eight cattle. The rider then has to steer the beast out of the yard into a larger arena, where they drive it around the course roughly in the shape of a three-leaf clover. The fi nals for the campdraft will run on the event’s fi nal day on Monday. Both campdrafters and rodeo competitors will come from right up and down eastern Australia. “Most competitors are coming in from the eastern seaboard, you might get an odd one that comes from the west,” Steve said. “Novice events are growing, which is a good thing for the industry. It means that there’s young cowboys coming on.” For the second year in a row, spectators will be able to walk across the Castlereagh Highway to the showground directly from the camping area opposite, which is expected to host around 1000 spectators in 20 acres. Paul said having the camping

ground will allow greater numbers of visitors to Coonamble, where accommodation is often booked out well in advance for the town’s signature event. “This rodeo’s gotten that big now, there was nowhere to camp in town,” said Paul. “The ground has just opened up so much more room. “People just want to be somewhere safe and camp, and it’s such a good area because they’ve only got to walk across.” The ground will be split by a fence into two areas, one for the younger party crowd, the other for your family-type spectators. The ground will have two security guards operating at the site, as well as mobile lighting towers and toilet facilities. “It’s a lot of work just to get it all ready. Some people think it just happens in three days, but it happens months and months before that just getting things all in place.” The use of the paddock has the support of Coonamble Shire Council, which Steve said has provided the area mapping and traffic management of the highway near the ground.

WARREN STAR Local News for the Warren Shire Wednesday, May 1, 2024

Drivers beware, School Zones are now back: so slow down! WITH local students now returning to their studies following the end of the holidays, drivers are being reminded that school zones are now back in force for motorists throughout NSW. “Please help us ensure our children’s safety by observing the school zone speed limits,” Transport for NSW (TFNSW) Deputy Secretary of Safety, Environment and Regulation, Sally Webb, said. Ms Webb said motorists who don’t obey the rules, face heavy fi nes and demerits. “Children are some of our most vulnerable road users and can be unpredictable around roads. “I’m reminding motorists to not only obey the rules in school zones but also take extra care around bus stops, school crossings and drop-off and pick-up areas where children are often present in higher numbers,” she said. Ms Webb has also reminded motorists of their obligations to slow down when driving past school buses with flashing lights. Parked buses may block motorists’ view of children exiting the vehicles. “Please remember that when you see bus lights flash, you must slow down to 40 km/hr, as the flashing lights mean the bus is picking-up or dropping-off children. Sadly, last year two children were seriously injured in a school zone. “Road safety is a shared responsibility, so please take care and follow the rules to help protect our children,” Ms Webb said. Parents and carers also play an important role in ensuring their children’s safety in school zones and school bus stops, and in particular, at “informal” bus stops in rural and regional areas without proper signage or safety infrastructure.

School zones are back in force this week after students returned the school in Warren and across the State.

Teen stabbed to death in Narromine By SHARON BONTHUYS NARROMINE and surrounding communities are in shock following the stabbing death of a 16-year-old boy on Friday, April 26. Emergency services were called to a home on Nymagee Street, Narromine, around 9 pm where officers attached to Orana Mid-Western Police District arrived to find a 16-year-old boy with stab injuries to his neck. He was treated at the scene by NSW Ambulance paramedics before being taken to Dubbo airport, where he died.

Police established a crime scene and detectives launched an investigation into the incident. Following inquiries, police arrested a 26-year-old man at a home nearby. He was taken to Dubbo Police Station where he was charged with murder, refused bail, and appeared in Dubbo Local Court on Sunday, April 28. A GoFundMe campaign has been created by family friend Mikaylia Frawley to raise funds for the young man’s funeral. At the time of writing, more than $3,600 had been raised from over 60 donations. “This has been a shock to

everyone and we are struggling to wrap our heads around this horrific incident,” Ms Frawley wrote on the GoFundMe page she established. “This attack happened in the comfort of his own home, by someone who was completely unknown to the family. He was diagnosed autistic. Anyone who knew him, knew he was the most innocent pure soul and always stuck to himself. “The only place you would fi nd him was at home, school or the library. This boy was known to never be involved in any issues. He would give the shirt off his back for absolute-

ly anyone he loved and do anything for anyone,” Ms Frawley wrote. On Sunday evening, local church leaders banded together to provide support for young people in Narromine, holding an event at the Generocity Church. “A few of us from the different churches just wanted to provide a space if youth wanted to unload or express feelings, get some encouragement or support, or whatever,” said Generocity Church spokesperson, David Taylor. “There weren’t many who came, but for those who did

we think they appreciated the space. “It helped us as team leaders from various churches work out how we might be able to band together should something similar happen in the future,” he said. At the time of writing, the young victim had not been publicly identified. As inquiries continue, police are urging anyone with CCTV footage, dashcam vision or information about the incident to contact Riverstone Police or Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000.

FAITH MATTERS

"Help!" By SHIRLEY TODDHUNTER

Tax cuts for every taxpayer Estimate yours with the tax cut calculator.

HOW many times have you spent a day rushing from one thing to another, spurred on by the idea that you need to do everything yourself, and yet, at the same time resenting the need for your involvement? Can you identify with the juggler frantically juggling half a dozen plates at once? I have wonderful news for you! You don’t have to do everything yourself! All you need is God! If you turn to Him for help you will be able to concentrate on the plate which is most important to you, and He will keep the others turning. No! Even though I can hear you saying ‘in your dreams’ I’m not dreaming. God asks us to put our lives in His hands, to trust Him to see to our every need. He only asks that we focus on Him, just as the juggler focuses on the plates, to give ourselves into His hands, and He will take care of us, and everything else will fall into place. We don’t always need to be in charge of everything. We can concentrate on our goal in life secure in the knowledge that He is taking care of everything else. All it takes is faith and trust, and that one little word – HELP!

New cattle yards to be ready, just in time for Warren Show

The old cattle yards at the Showground have been removed ready for new $66,000 Jim O’Brien, Justin Sanderson, Jamie Russ, Darren Clark, Vicki Parker, Phil multipurpose yards to be installed in the coming weeks, just in time for the Warren Waterford and Jo O’Brien helping to remove the old cattle yards from the Show. PHOTOS: SUPPLIED. Showground over the weekend. By HARRIET GILMORE THE fi nal project in a host of upgrades to the Warren Showground, is set to be completed shortly, just in time for the Warren Show later this month. A team of volunteers worked over the weekend to remove the old cattle yards ready for the new, almost $70,000 yards, to be installed in the coming few weeks. Dedicated volunteers from Warren Show Society, Warren Adult Riding Group, Warren Pony Club, the Warren Team Penning Association, along with staff from Warren Shire

Council, dismantled the old cattle yards in preparation for the construction of the new $66,000 multi-purpose facility. Warren Shire Council Town Services Manager, Raymond Burns, said this is the fi nal project to be completed from funding provided by the NSW Showgrounds Stimulus Program, Phase 2B. The work he said, couldn’t have been possible, without the support of the local groups. “A big ‘thank-you’ to all the volunteers who helped to dismantle the yards and the volunteers who will help construct the new yards

in the coming weeks,” Mr Burns said. Other recent upgrades at the Showground that were funded by this phase of the stimulus program, included electrical upgrades at the “Showies” and Cattleman’s camp areas, as well as bathroom upgrades in the Centre Arena and Cattleman’s camp area. The new yards are set to be installed, just in time for the 144th annual Warren Show in just a few weeks’ time. Audrey Weston from the Warren Pastoral and Agriculture Society, said that the Committee were hard-at-work

preparing for another fantastic event. “Hard-copy show schedules will be out this week, but they are currently available online, by searching Warren Show on Facebook,” Ms Weston said. “There’s also still time to enter the Young Woman competition with judging taking place one week before the Show,” she added. She said that the prize, is based on a whole range of important personality criteria, and is much more than just a fashion event. “The competition is a wonderful opportunity for the

RAIN AND FLOODS MAKE OUR HOMES A BREEDING GROUND FOR MOZZIES Flood water and pools of stagnant water from recent rain have turned many backyards into the perfect breeding ground for mosquitoes, that spread human disease, such as Murray Valley encephalitis and Ross River virus. Any still or stagnant water around the home can encourage mosquitoes to breed and increase the chance of people being bitten. Tips to minimise the chance of a mosquito breeding ground around the home or school: z Remove all water-holding receptacles from around the yard; z ,i}Õ >À Þ yÕÃ ÕÌ « Ì « > Ì L>ÃiÃÆ z Keep guttering clear; z Mow lawns regularly and clear vegetation areas of moist, tangled undergrowth;

z Make sure openings of septic tanks and water tanks are covered and screened securely. Important preventative measures include: z Ensuring all doors and windows, V Õ` } Þ ÕÀ Ìi Ì] >Ã yÞ ÃVÀii } good condition; z Protecting your skin from bites by covering up with long sleeves, pants and socks; z Use insect repellents on any exposed skin. (The best repellents contain the chemical ingredients DEET or picaridin). Most mosquitoes become active around dusk although some species are active also during the day. The key time to take special care again mosquito bites is just prior to, and for two hours after dusk.

Showcasing our region by telling great “yarns”, aim of new local music project From page 1 Accomplished local fiddler with DUST Music and founder of the Warren Chamber Music Festival, Frances Evans, is incredibly excited, after funding was recently secured, to be getting the project off the ground. “The power of a shared story, unites small communities,” Frances said. “A story and a song has the ability to bring people together to ref lect, think, share, and remember,” she added. No other creative medium offers as many human emotions and experiences, she believes. “Music is evocative, emotional, innate, and is universal. “Music-making and art-making, is an uplifting experience for people and facilitates social cohesion and greater well-being.” She is looking forward to bringing the stories of hardship and survival to life through the lyrical power of music. “The impact of hearing true yarns spun into song and shared, remembered, archived, and treasured, will have a great impact on the communities of the Central West,” Frances believes. “We are already predicting that stories of drought, flood, fi re, survival, mateship, endurance, comfort, and courage, will be just some of the significant themes addressed,” she said. Award-winning musician Greg Storer said that Frances fi rst came-up with the idea of having a story or yarn night, at the local watering holes during one of their jam sessions at Ellerslie Lane. Greg said he hopes to get ample content from the stories gathered at the sessions, that they can then cull and use the best songs to create an EP or Album. “Yarns and Stories preserved for prosperity from around the district on a CD,” he said in describing the initiative. “We have lined-up James Gil-

lard to produce the songs,” Greg added. This producer, he revealed, has a long and storied history in the Australian music scene. “James is a very well-known Aussie musician and performer, and has played mainly bass guitar for the likes of Mondo Rock, Lee Kernaghan, The Flood, Jimmy Barnes, and for just about everyone,” Greg enthused. “So, it’s going to be a very exciting project to be involved with.” The group has secured $13,000 in funding from the Foundation for Rural and Regional Renewal (FRRR) and Outback Arts’ Country Arts Support Program (CASP) to get the project off the ground. “Big thanks to Frances for compiling grants, and FRRR and CASP for their generous support,” Greg said “Pressure is on now to write some cracking songs and get them recorded. Looking forward to it.” The new project also includes the addition of a new family member to DUST Music with Greg’s youngest daughter — and sister of Bonnie and Pip — Millie to join the ensemble. Millie is currently completing Year 12, but recently opened with her original songs for Australian music legend, Ian Moss. “Millie’s beautiful voice will feature on the upcoming EP to be recorded in October/November 2024,” Frances added. “It’s fantastic to have Bonnie and Millie involved as well,” Greg said. “Pip is going to Canada for a while, so she won’t be contributing unfortunately,” he explained. Now the funding has been secured, the group will be getting together this week to start locking in dates for the “yarn” sessions at the Collie Hotel, Nevertire Hotel and Warren Golf Club. “We want residents of all ages and from all walks of life to come along to the sessions,” Frances said. “So watch this space,” she concluded.

I couldn’t have asked for a better experience learning about the Malaysian political environment.

Housing Solutions Comment mment by ROY Y BUTLER, State te Member for Barwon

G’day folks,

I HAVE returned from my overseas study tour, and I am looking forward to sharing some of what I have seen with the relevant ministers, organisations, and authorities in New South Wales. It has been an interesting, informative and eventful trip, but it is great to be back in Australia. While there are some useful things we can learn from other countries, it is good to be home.

Malaysian Parliament

ONE of the stipulations of going on the study tour was that I had to pay a visit to the parliament of a Commonwealth country, so while I was in Malaysia, I went to the Malaysian Parliament in Kuala Lumpur. I was very fortunate to be hosted by the Hon. Wong Chen, the Member for Subang (a 500,000-person constituency, west of Kuala Lumpur), who spent over four and a half hours with me in the Parliament and in his electorate office. I have to say that Wong strikes me as a lovely bloke, one who was very generous with his time. We discussed the challenges and opportunities within Malaysia and between Malaysia and Australia. While in his electorate office, he introduced me to some of his interns. These were some impressive young people, all studying a range of graduate and postgraduate degrees. They are learning the workings of Wong’s office and gaining an understanding of Malaysian politics. The interns and I spent about an hour talking about a range of issues, making use of public spaces in public housing areas, the Australian electoral system, and the challenges of the Barwon Electorate. I also met with the Speaker of the House and went to the assembly chamber. There are 222 Members in this assembly, quite a few more than the 93 Members of the Legislative Assembly in NSW Parliament. Fortunately, Wong happens to be the Chairperson of the Special Select Committee on International Relations and International Trade. We talked about the strengthening relationship between our countries. I particularly asked about nurses and scope for Malaysian nurses to come to Australia. He explained they are currently losing nurses to the Middle East, and they too have a shortage. Around 80% of Malaysia’s grain comes from Australia and some Australian businesses are based here. In all the two-way trade between Malaysia and Australia is over $33 billion dollars, which makes them a very important neighbour.

ONE thing I discovered while I was overseas is that Australia is not alone in facing a housing crisis. While I was in Malaysia I met with Sr Dr Suraya Ismail, the Director of research at the Khazanah Research Institute in Kuala Lumpur. Dr Ismail is an expert on housing policy, and through the Institute, conducts research for the Malaysian Government. We had a good talk lasting over an hour and half. As in Australia, the price of housing against normal incomes has made home ownership out of reach for most people. Social Housing and affordable housing is scarce. Made worse by cost-of-living pressures and wages that have not kept up with the CPI. Some attempts to move public housing to private ownership has resulted in costs of ownership overwhelming the new owners (you might remember it’s something we tried in the last Parliament in NSW). An area both countries are moving towards is pre-approved (pattern planning) modular and panelised (built from interlocking panels) homes. These are built off site and transported to the home site for fi nal construction. After talking with Suraya, I am more convinced that this is a strategy that will help us. I have met with companies that are doing this in Australia and met with the planning Minister Paul Scully to progress the pattern planning aspect. This could hurt the hip pocket of developers and large building companies, so expect them to resist. If you want to know more about the research undertaken by the Khazanah Research Institute, see here: https://www.facebook.com/ KRInstitute?mibextid=LQQJ4d

Racing around Italy AFTER Malaysia I flew to Milan, landing at Malpensa Airport, picking up a car and driving 140 km across Italy. Driving in Italy is quite an experience, given the speed limit on the autostrade is 130 kmph (which is still not fast enough for some drivers) and blinkers seem to be optional for many Italians. But all that aside, I took on the challenge of the Italian road network to drive to Gardone Val Trompia, Brescia, to see the historic Beretta factory. There I met with members of the company executive before taking an in-depth tour of two of their sites. The company has a proud history, originating five centuries ago in Gardone Val Trompia - an area of Italy known for its iron resources and ironworkers since ancient Roman times. The company is very proud of its history. They sold their fi rst weapons in 1526, according to a sales

receipt dating from that time held in a Venetian archive - a copy is on display at the Beretta factory. I was keen to learn how they have stayed in business for so long. It is a family business (one that is not owned by shareholders), and 15 generations have helped build and manage the company. Beretta now owns over 50 businesses and brands and ships products to most countries, including Australia. They manufacture in several countries. I was fascinated to learn that the facility typically produces 100% of its energy requirements. Beretta is heavily involved in the local community, preserving history, and supporting many direct and indirect jobs. The Italian Government uses their products in defence and policing. And have done so for many years. They use local steel content in production - their own blend, with all metal swarf going back into new products. They partner with other local businesses like MCM, which supply many of their automated machines. They still employ over 900 people in their two facilities. Many are multi-generational families working for Beretta. Many more employees worldwide. They generate their own talent, one example is that when master engravers were becoming hard to fi nd, Beretta created a pipeline of apprentices. There is much more to say, which will go into my report, but the key ingredients seem to be the Government buying domestically produced products, partnering locally for support industries, and using local content. Something that I would like to see more of in New South Wales and something I have been working on in Parliament. In their museum/collection they keep the serial number 1 of each model and have an extensive collection of historically significant items they have produced since 1526. Their collection extends to items of historical significance regardless of who made them. It is an amazing organisation, one that has really stood the test of time.

Baaka Cultural Centre update IN August 2023, I had the privilege of joining the Wilcannia community in a celebration that marked the signing of the contract to build the Baaka Cultural Centre Wilcannia. It’s one of two new buildings in Wilcannia, the other being the Maari Ma Health Centre. Both were undertaken by David Payne Construction, which employs locals. It’s great to see the site coming along. The rammed earth walls are a fantastic feature of its design. The Baaka Cultural Centre Project will be a visitor information centre, a community gathering place and a home for cultural artefacts. It’s designed to host public exhibitions, performanc-

es, workshops, training, and events within its walls. When it fi nally opens its doors, it will be an important social hub and a source of pride for the local community, visible to people as they drive through the main street. It will also encourage more tourists to stop and enjoy all that the town has to offer. It has been a long time in the making and it will be great to see it fi nished.

Committee visits Broken Hill and Wilcannia THE Select Committee on Remote, Rural and Regional Health headed to the far west the week before last. The overall task of the committee, chaired by Dr Joe McGirr, the member for Wagga, is to look into the implementation of the 44 recommendations made in the 2022 report of the inquiry that investigated the delivery of specific health services and specialist care in remote, rural, and regional NSW. They are currently looking into recommendations “relating to the delivery of specific health services and specialist care in remote, rural and regional NSW.” The committee toured the Royal Flying Doctor facility, Broken Hill Hospital, Wilcannia Multipurpose Service and Maari Ma Health and Wellbeing Centre as well as consulted with local health service stakeholders. I want to thank my parliamentary colleagues for including Barwon in their schedule of location visits. There is a lot that can be learnt from that part of the state.

Parliament and Anzac Day in Canada ORDINARILY, every year I attend an Anzac Day ceremony somewhere in my electorate, but the timing of my study tour meant that I was in Canada on April 25. I went to a ceremony in Ottawa, to which I had travelled to visit their national parliament (my thanks to those who showed me around the impressive seat of their government). I joined a large group of people commemorating Anzac Day at the Canadian War Museum. It was a lovely ceremony. I also got to speak with The Honourable Scott Ryan, Australian High Commissioner and Her Excellency Cecile Hillyer, New Zealand High Commissioner. Plus, plenty of service men and women, and diplomatic staff who work with DFAT. Given my family’s past and present involvement in the military it was important to me that I got to an ANZAC ceremony while I was away. This one was extremely well run and had some beautiful elements. I was especially touched by what the Turkish representative said about ANZACs who died in WWI and lie alongside Turkish servicemen:

“Those heroes that shed their blood and lost their lives ... You are now lying in the soil of a friendly country. Therefore, rest in peace. There is no difference between the Johnnies and the Mehmets to us where they lie side by side here in this country of ours ... You, the mothers who sent their sons from faraway countries, wipe away your tears; your sons are now lying in our bosom and are in peace. After having lost their lives on this land they have become our sons as well.” (These words are also inscribed on a memorial in Gallipoli). Attending a ceremony in Canada had extra meaning for me, since my father served alongside Canadians at the battle of Kapyong and April 25 is also the anniversary of the end of that battle. Lest we forget.

Cobar War memorial MY apologies to those in Cobar who were expecting me for a ceremony there to open their new war memorial. Miranda Fry, SEO from my Cobar office was there and reports that there was a good turnout. The memorial had been nine years in the making. Led by volunteer Cobar locals John De Bruin and Emily Miller, and with the major research work done by Kay Stingemore and Council staff, the project came together with fi nal touches being worked on up until 10.20pm the night before Anzac Day. Nearly 50 percent of the funds needed to build the memorial were collected at the hugely successful Running on Empty Festival in 2022, the Dust Bowl Fuel Burners were heavily involved in fundraising. Little Bailey Robinson (with his Uncle Scott’s help) was very excited to lay a wreath on my behalf. Bailey is already a bit of a history buff about the World Wars. I commend Cobar for their community spirit, all working together to get the funds to build it.

G3 Grain Terminal THE last stop on my tour before I made the long trek back to Sydney was the G3 Grain Terminal in Vancouver. This huge facility is a game changer for grain logistics, reducing freight cost pathways with less money going into freight and handling. It’s at least 50% more efficient at getting grain, peas, canola, and other produce off trains and onto shipping. Three thousand tons per hour is quite normal for unloading trains, and it’s almost double that for loading ships. The train never stops moving at around 0.25-0.28 mph. The train and the systems, as well as moisture checks, are all done from a control room. All of this reduces penalties for ships or trains sitting idle. The unloading and loading speed are incomparable.

WARREN STAR Local News for the Warren Shire Wednesday, May 1, 2024 The site is highly automated, with robotics dropping the grain or seed through a grate onto conveyor belts that move to sorting and storage and onto ships. See the video. All of this relies on trains arriving at the right time, ships being available, and the systems all working. Something G3 has improved about as much as anyone could.

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

Local veterans recognised IT was an honour to present Certificates of Appreciation to the family of Charles Leonard Johnston, Hugh Alfred Johnston, and Eric George Johnston, recently. Even though they are no longer with us, it’s lovely to have this memento to pass onto future generations, to remember the role they played in various confl icts. Thank you to each of these men for their sacrifice and service. We are grateful for the dedication and sacrifice demonstrated by our veterans’ service to Australia, and it’s important to recognise this. Certificates of Appreciation are available for veterans who have served overseas in Australia’s Defence Forces during the Second World War and in wars, conflicts or peacekeeping operations since, or on the home front during World War II.

Jeff, my guide at the site, is the head engineer and has been working there for long enough to see all the machinery installed. Great guy. We had a bit in common. Putting something like this at the Port of Newcastle would mean Barwon produce could get set for export quickly and efficiently.

Barrier Truth and regional media WHILE I was away overseas, I was saddened to hear that Broken Hill’s newspaper the Barrier Truth has closed after more than 125 years. Founded in 1898, the Truth was Broken Hill’s longest ongoing news provider and will be missed in the community.

Like many regional newspapers, the pressure of rising costs and falling advertising revenue has forced the decision. I believe more needs to be done to support print media in regional areas. For many people in the bush their main source of information relevant to them is the local paper. The Truth and other regional pa-

pers carry a lot of information that isn’t available online, and country newspapers are the hub of the local area.

I have always had a great relationship with the journos at the Truth and wish all the staff the very best for their future endeavours.

ANZAC Day 2024

Warren ANZAC Day

From page 1 “But above all we welcome all our returned service personnel that have joined us this morning.” “On this day, above all days, we remember those Australian men and women who died or suffered in the great tragedy of war. “Each year we pay homage not only to those original ANZACS, but to all who died or were disabled in their service to this country. “Their hope was the free-

dom of mankind, and we remember with pride their courage, their compassion, and their comradeship.” “Not only do we honour the memory of those Australians who have fallen in battle; we share the sorrow of those who have mourned them and of all who have been victims of armed confl ict.” Michael Campbell came forward to lead the town in an opening prayer. Mary-Anne Brennan recited the Prayer of Thanksgiving, the Prayer for the King, and Prayer for the Nation.

Andrew Brewer delivered his commemoration address. “On this day 109 years ago, strapping lads were being cut down by gunfi re on a foreign beach, under insurmountable odds. They were farmers and factory workers. They were mechanics and shopkeepers. They were sons, brothers, and they were ANZACS,” Mr Brewer said. “More than 8700 Australians and 2700 New Zealanders lost their lives at Gallipoli. In total, over 102000 Australian and 30000 New Zealanders made the ultimate sacrifice for

their countries and our freedom since that time. “These were confl icts that cost us deeply. Take a moment to reflect on what ANZAC Day means to you.” “ANZAC Day is a solemn event that is not a celebration, but a commemoration. Confl ict should never be glorified, but we must remember it. We should not take the free lives we have, in the best country in the world, for granted.” Throughout the event, the Warren Chamber Music Festival’s SING Warren Choir was called upon to lead the

crowd in a number of songs and hymns. Master of ceremonies Trevor Wilson then began the official wreath laying ceremony. Afterwards, the public was given time to place wreaths and tributes at the cenotaph. ANZAC Day commemorations came to a close after The Ode, The Last Post, and a one minute silence. Everyone was invited to join in the singing of the Australian and New Zealand National Anthems to officially end the afternoons proceedings.

Playing at their beloved Tom Knight Oval in Cobar, the Roosters gave an early indication that they will be out to go one better than their Grand Final loss in 2023, when they handed the visiting Narromine Jets a hefty loss, racing in for nine tries in an emphatic 58-14 win! Their grand fi nal opponents, and the reigning premiers from last year, the Gulgong Bull Terriers, got away with a very hard-fought 24-20 win over the Baradine Magpies in their game played at Baradine. Following the Magpies recent good form in trials and at the Castlereagh knock-out, many thought that the blackand-whites would get the win in “Magpie Land”, and they very nearly did, just falling short in what would have been a major boost to morale for the 2024 season.

At Coolah, the ‘Roos continued on their winning way from the knock-out the previous Saturday, registering a large and impressive 40-6 win over a Gilgandra Panther outfit that would have been hard-pressed to have been able to squeeze any more errors into an 80-minute game of rugby league. Gilgandra’s inept display takes nothing away from the fact that the ‘Roos were way too good on the day, and that they mean business in their comeback year to the Castlereagh competition! In a high-scoring game, the Coonabarabran Unicorns started their 2024 campaign with a strong win over their arch-rivals, the Coonamble Bears, taking the encounter 48-30. The match of the round this Saturday, will obviously be the blockbuster 2023 Grand Final rematch between the Gulgong Bull Terriers and the Cobar Roosters, which is expected to draw a huge crowd to Gulgong’s Billy Dunn Oval. Whilst it may not be the premiership silverware that the Roosters’ would have liked to have claimed at the same ground in the 2023 season fi nale, the time-honoured Boronia Cup is up for grabs, and Cobar would like nothing better than to have it strapped into the front seat of their bus on the return journey come Saturday night, whilst the Terriers will be going tooth

and nail to retain it. In other games, both the Narromine Jets and the Gilgandra Panthers will be looking to bounce back from their respective heavy defeats last Saturday when they clash at Narromine, whilst Coolah will be out to secure an away win when they face the difficult assignment of upending the Coonamble Bears at Coonamble. In what should be a fantastic battle at Baradine, the Magpies will resume hostilities against their arch-rivals, the Coonabarabran Unicorns, in what should be another classic local derby!

RACING NG ORT REPORT By COLIN HODGES

Raced at Tomingley – Saturday, April 27 ADAPTING to a significant change in distance, the Clint Lundholm-trained Avalicious, before a record breaking crowd on Saturday, won the 1500 metres Alkane Resources Tomingley Picnic Cup. At the previous start, in TAB company Avalicious had fi nished a creditable fourth in the 2400 metres Iron Horse Handicap won by Blue Guitar at the Wellington Boot carnival. Tumbarumba galloper Namarari led the Tomingley Cup field from Dancing In The Sky with Avalicious settling nicely in third position for Narromine jockey Ricky Blewitt. Over the closing stages, Avalicious ($2.40 to $1.70 favourite) wore down Namarari (Zara Lewis, $12) to win by a halflength with a length to third placed Valadyium (Dylan Parrott, $7). Ricky Blewitt had earlier won the 800 metres Lowes Petroleum-Eric Pugh Memorial Maiden Plate on the Wayne Collison, Narromine-trained Typhoon Ginger. Backing up from an unplaced run at Nyngan two days before, Typhoon Ginger ($6) led all the way to beat the Victorian trained Kingzan (Tony Williams, $2.20 equal favourite) and Mary Louise (Leandro Ribeiro, $2.20). Kylie Kennedy, the daughter of Wayne Collison, is also a trainer at Narromine and she won the 1150 metres Elders Insurance/JDP Diesel Repairs Maiden Plate with Jet Missile (Dylan Parrott, $1.50 favourite) which led throughout to defeat Petite Vielle (Izzy Neale ($3.80) and On Another Level (Zara Lewis, $4.60). Gilgandra-based Zara Lewis with excellent rides, achieved a winning treble, Redline, Foxstorm and Intense. From the Geoff O’Brien stable at Quirindi, Redline (Zara Lewis, $6.50) burst through the centre of a pack to gain a three way photo fi nish win over the leader Juliette Street (Eloise Drews, $5) and Better Judgement (Leandro Ribeiro, $3.20 favourite) in the 800 metres Inland Petroleum Class Two Trophy Handicap. Given a charmed run behind

Western Racing Report the leaders by Zara Lewis in the 1150 metres Total Diesel Repairs Class Three Trophy Handicap, Foxstorm ($4.20) fi nished best to account for Allende (Leandro Ribeiro, $3.50 equal favourite) and Individualist (Izzy Neale, $4.60). Trained at Gilgandra by Ashley Gibson, Foxstorm has won Picnic races this season at Mungery, Condobolin, Grenfell and Tomingley and is a good prospect for the $50,000 Picnic Championship Final at Coonamble in October. Bookmakers were sent home on a losing note when the heavily supported Intense won the 1500 metres Wonga/Durock Drilling Class B Handicap for Coonabarabran trainer Wayne Martyn. Baked from $4 to $1.80 favourite, Intense (Zara Lewis) breezed along with a good lead and eventually won by almost 5 lengths from Kirameki (Eloise Drews, $7) and Hammoon Sunshine (Leandro Ribeiro, $4.40).

Raced at Nyngan Thursday, April 25 NYNGAN trainer Rodney Robb, one of the all time greats of western area racing, with his four-year-old gelding Nannu, on Thursday, was a popular winner of the 1400 metres Nyngan RSL ANZAC Nyngan Cup. Racing before a big crowd at Nyngan, the Cobar galloper Chapel Lane led by four lengths from Toulon Factor in the $16,000 Cup with Nannu travelling off the pace. In an exciting fi nish, Nannu (Ken Dunbar, $3.40) won by a head from Bush Warrior (James Rogers, $9) with Chapel Lane (Nyssa Burrells, $26) battling on for third. Another Nyngan trainer scoring a popular win was Greg O’Neill with Are You Certain in the 1200 metres Inland Petroleum and Aries Resources Tritton Benchmark 45 Handicap. Midfield to the home turn, Are You Certain ($6.50) was desperately ridden by Andrew Banks over the closing stages to win in a three way photo fi nish from Planet Ex (Shannen Llewellyn, $3.50 favourite) and Bonhomie (Georgina McDonnell, $5). Andrew Banks had earlier brought the Connie Greig, Dubbo trained Pahang ($2.50 to $2 favourite) from behind the leaders to win the 1100 metres Nyngan Bowling Club &

Aeris Resources Tritton Class One Handicap by four lengths from Oh No Devon (Georgina McDonnell, $5) and A Tender Lady (Nyssa Burrells, $5). Apprenticed to Dubbo trainer Brett Robb, the winners are starting to flow for Shannen Llewellyn and she achieved a double at Nyngan with Dozen Kilpatrick and Party Stop. From the Bendemeer stables of Jane Clement, Dozen Kilpatrick ($7) fi nished well, out wide, to defeat the Connie Greig trained stablemates Have Mercy (Andrew Banks, $1.90 fav.) and Billy Bent Ear (Georgina McDonnell, $5.50) by over two lengths in the 900 metres Luke Smith Plumbing and Josh Lister Building Benchmark 58 Handicap. Owned by picnic jockey Tony Williams, Party Stop ($2.60 fav.) was the fi rst leg of a double for trainer Rodney Robb when overhauling the leader Lemoni (Hannah Johnston, 2.70) to win by almost a length, with Typhoon Ginger (Ken Dunbar, $4.80) third in the 900 metres Nyngan Pharmacy and Neill Earthmoving-Max Smith Memorial Maiden Plate.

Raced at Bathurst – Thursday, April 25 GREETED with enthusiasm by the very big crowd at Bathurst on ANZAC day was the win by local galloper Fletchlo in the prestigious Bathurst RSL Club Soldiers Saddle over 1400 metres. The lightly raced Fletchlo is trained by Gayna Williams and this was the fourth win from nine starts for the fouryear-old gelding. Xeiby and Musical Affair set a fast pace while Fletchlo and another well performed local galloper De Forerunner from the Dean Mirfi n stable raced near the tail of the field. Brogans Creek (Nick Heywood, $16) hit the front in the straight but in an exciting fi nish was beaten a half neck by the heavily supported Fletchlo (Mikayla Weir, $4.20 to $2.80 favourite) with De Forerunner (Ashley Morgan, $4.40) less than a length away third. Success for local trainers came early with Nasty Streak prepared by Roy McCabe winning the opening event, the 1100 metres Elders Emms Mooney Country Boosted Maiden Plate. Well ridden by Bathurst based Ashleigh Stanley, Nasty Streak ($3.50) came down the outside with a late run

to beat Conversations (Jake Pracey-Holmes, $5.50) and Baby Daisy (Pierre Boudvillain, $4.80) in a three way photo fi nish. Talented apprentice Will Stanley, the brother of Ashleigh Stanley, later won the 1100 metres JB Civil Contracting-Bill Aspros Cup on Lady Shenanigans for Hawkesbury trainers Mitchell and Desiree Kearney. Burdened with 64.5kg, Lady Shenanigans ($7.50 to $11) was very courageous when coming from fourth on the home turn to wear down Arithamea (Olivia Chambers, $14 to $9) and Lohnraki (Courtney Ferris, $3.90). Warwick Farm trainer Bjorn Baker has an enviable record at Bathurst and it was yet another double when O’Ziggy (Ashley Morgan, $1.75 to $1.60 fav.) led throughout to win the 1800 metres Kennards Hire Class 1 & Maiden Plate by over 6 lengths and debut maker Perfumist (Ashley Morgan, $1.60 fav.) came from well back to win the 1100 metres Central West Electrical Gold Nugget Two-Year-Old Handicap. The other winners were Forbidden Gemstone (Teaghan Martin,$5) trained at Canberra by Garry Kirkup and Drunken Sailor (Mathew Cahill, $8.50) trained at Hawkesbury by James Ponsonby.

Raced at Narromine – Sunday, April 28 BECOMING established as an outstanding frontrunner, Elson Boy made it three wins in succession when taking out the 1300 metres USMC Diggers Cup on Sunday at Narromine. At the previous start Elson Boy had won the $150,000 WRA Country Championship Qualifier at Coonamble for the $1 million Final at Randwick. Unfortunately, Elson Boy was scratched from the Final due to a temporary setback which was a huge disappointment for Dubbo trainer Dar Lunn and the owners Guy Mitchell from Binnaway and Rob Pratten from Dubbo. Gallant Star, runner up to Elson Boy at Coonamble, went on to fi nish second to Asgarda in the Final. Ridden by the talented apprentice Braith Nock, Elson Boy ($2.60 favourite) was straight to the front at Narromine and safely held off a spirited challenge from Gidgee Guy (Heavelon Van Der Hoven, $31) to win by a short

neck with Deel Street (Mikayla Weir, $9.50) a length away third. Bred and raced by Valerie Wray from Nyngan and formerly from Cobar, the sixyear-old gelding Bean Hot displayed dazzling early speed from the outside barrier to lead all the way in the 1300 metres QUBE Agri Benchmark 50 Handicap. Maintaining a good tempo under the skilful riding of apprentice Shannen Llewellyn, the Brett Robb trained Bean Hot ($3.40 favourite) won by a length from Mishani Vandal (Braith Nock, $5.50) and Mrs Bull (Mikayla Weir, $4.40). “That was a tremendous thrill to see Bean Hot back as a winner after a long time out with injury”, Valerie Wray revealed. She also explained that Bean Hot is the fi fth-generation progeny of a brood mare owned by Valerie and her husband the late Travern Wray who is well remembered as a successful and popular publican at Cobar. Rodney Robb at Nyngan and his son Brett Robb at Dubbo, have for many years been the trainers of the Wray owned gallopers. Mother and son, Bendemeer trainer Jane Clement and apprentice jockey Braith Nock combined to win the 1600 metres Narromine Shire Council Class One and Maiden Plate with The Great Armada. From back in the field, The Great Armada ($17) saved ground with a rails run to beat Laisvas (Mikayla Weir, $8) and Miss Monopoly (Will Stanley, $7.50). There was also a family connection in the 1100 metres Narromine USMC Maiden Plate when The Mooch ($3.50) trained at Cowra by Michael Lynch and ridden by his brother-in-law Mathew Cahill led most of the way for a twolengths win over Our Celebrity (Shayleigh Ingelse, $8) and Poppy Boxer (Mikayla Weir, $3.40 fav.). Debut maker Release Point (Chelsea Hillier, $2.80 fav.) trained by Rod Northam won the 1100 metres Three Rivers Machinery Maiden Plate, the Gayna Williams trained Big Wandji (Mikayla Weir, $4.40) won the 1300 metres Australian Lighthorse Maiden Handicap while the 1100 metres Joey Doueihi Memorial Benchmark 58 Handicap was won by Dupenny ($15) ridden by Mikayla Weir for trainer Brett Thompson.
