Port Hedland youth nominated a finalist for WA Youth Awards Town of Port Hedland employee and outstanding member of the arts community David Sullivan has been nominated as a finalist in the 2011 WA Youth Awards, in the category of Create! Propel Youth Arts Award for excellence in arts.

Mr Sullivan was also nominated for the 2011 Premier’s Australia Day Active Citizenship Awards in the category of persons

under 25 years of age.

The award recognises and celebrates community contribution and achievements by local residents.

“This is a fantastic achievement for David and the Town and demonstrates what can be achieved by the young people in Hedland. I’m sure the community is extremely proud of him and wish him well,’ said

New Port Hedland Aboriginal Liaison Officer to bridge the health gap As a Port Hedland resident for 40 years and an enrolled nurse for 30 years, Sue Walker is using her considerable local knowledge and health industry experience to help make healthcare more accessible to Aboriginal people.

An Aboriginal Liaison Officer (ALO) at the Hedland Health Campus, Mrs Walker works in the emergency department and visits the wards to help breakdown cultural barriers often experienced

by Aboriginal people when accessing mainstream health care.

Her role is one of two ALO positions funded under the $38.2 million Pilbara Health Initiative: a five-year partnership between the State Government’s Royalties for Regions program and the Chamber of Minerals and Energy’s Pilbara Industry’s Community Council (PICC) Health Initiative members (BHP Billiton Iron Ore, Chevron Australia Pty Ltd, North West Shelf Joint Venture, Rio Tinto and Woodside Energy), which aims to boost health services in the region. BHP Billiton Iron Ore is the principal industry sponsor of the Aboriginal Liaison Officer initiative.

“Health is my field.” she said “I have always worked in health, it is my passion, just as my people are my passion, so this role is perfect for me,” she said.

“Sometimes Aboriginal people come into the hospital and think they are not welcome because of something that happened in the past.

“I am able to calm them down, and encourage them to stay and get treated.

“However, I not only get to help a lot of Aboriginal people in this role but I also do a lot of education on cultural differences with health service staff, both informally on a dayto-day basis and through formal cultural awareness talks.

“A lot of my work also involves referring people to appropriate services such as the Aboriginal Medical Service or a hostel if someone is homeless, ensuring people get their medication, making sure they have a lift home.

“I also make a lot of cups of tea.

“Sometimes I have to go back and look at the job description,” she joked.

Service Region Director Tina Chinery said that hospitals could be daunting places and having someone who could provide emotional, social and cultural support to patients and their families was crucial to maintaining a strong health system in the region.

“This initiative is aimed at supporting and encouraging Indigenous people to seek medical attention and assisting clinical staff in treating them through stronger communication and cultural awareness,” she said.

“It is also a great example of government and industry working together to strengthen health for Indigenous people in the Pilbara.”

BHP Billiton Vice President External Affairs, Ian Fletcher said the introduction of Aboriginal Liaison Officers is helping ensure Indigenous people have access to mainstream healthcare in a culturally sensitive way.

Chamber of Minerals and Energy of Western Australia (CME) Chief Executive Reg Howard-Smith said the implementation of Aboriginal liaison officers is a great example of government and industry working together to strengthen health for Indigenous people in the Pilbara.

Mrs Walker, who previously worked in a similar role for a mining company in the area, said the ALO position consisted of equal parts

My lucky day

I can only say THANK YOU... Last Thursday afternoon, my heart went through my feet when I realised (after I had arrived home) that I had left my handbag in the shopping trolley outside McDonalds.

The one day that I had everything in my bag and I mean EVERYTHING...

Wallet (with a fair amount of cash in it...), my brand new passport, my phone and some important documents!

Arriving back to the shops to see an empty trolley was heart breaking, only to be told that a young boy, maybe 11 or 12 years old had taken it and said that he would hand it in at Centre Management.

I have never run so fast in my life, and it was there with EVERYTHING still in it, right down to the 5 cent piece!! Amazing!

I am so happy to know that there are people in our community that value honesty.

I would love to know who you are so that I could say a BIG thank you in person, I’m hoping Mum or Dad will read this and pass on my wishes.

Please contact the Echo.

Thank you Thank you Thank you Louise

By choice. Because my body was rested and I felt energised to get up.

Those were the days my friend.

Port Hedland history to be revamped

• Winners Serge Doumergue and Rick Hockey.

Local agents recognised for all achievements Local Port Hedland agency, Hedland First National Real Estate, made a clean sweep on Friday 4 March at the network’s WA Gala Awards dinner held at the Vines Resort and Country Club in Swan Valley, where members were rewarded for their shining achievements over the past year.

The elegant affair celebrated the best of the State’s real estate performances, which according to Hedland First National Real Estate Principal, Morag Lowe, have been exceptional, given the market conditions of 2010.

“Last year was a relatively slow market for property, but our staff were still able to deliver services beyond customer expectations and were kept extremely busy, evidence of how good systems and hard work pay off,” Ms Lowe said.

“Their results over the last year are testimony to their persistence and commitment to ensure they do their best at all times especially in difficult market conditions.”

Hedland First National Real Estate was named

the Sales Office of the Year as well as receiving Plaques for achieving the Highest Number of Exclusive Listings and Settled Sales for a medium office in the Commercial Category, and the Highest Number of Exclusive Listings for a medium office in the Combined Category.

Individuals were also recognised on the night, including Rick Hockey, being named the Salesperson of the Year in the state, as well as receiving the award for Highest Gross Commissions in the Combined Residential, Commercial and Rural Category.

Serge Doumergue, received a Diamond Award for the number of Commercial Listings achieved, and trophies in the Commercial Sector for Top Gross Commissions, number of Exclusive Listings, and the most Settled Sales.

He was also named among the Top 10 Salespeople for the Year in the state in the Combined Residetial, Commercial and Rural Category.

Also Rhonda Smithers,

received a trophy for the number of Residential Settled Sales achieved.

Ms Lowe said the First National Awards are an important event as it presents an opportunity for members to come together and share their thoughts and views on the industry and events that affect them, such as the recent disasters across Australia.

“During trying times, like the recent floods and cyclones, our members band together and help each other where they can but often in large states and territories like ours it is only at these types of social events that they are able to come face to face with each other,” Ms Lowe said.

“The same resilience we show to overcome these types of challenges is the same approach we take to our everyday work.

“While each member works autonomously, we know we are part of a larger group and collectively we are all striving for the one goal – a better network which can weather any storm and put our clients first”.

The Town of Port Hedland have started planning for the first phase of Old Port Hedland Cemetery (OPHC) Upgrade Project.

Objectives of the OPHC Upgrade project include: collation of base data to inform future design works; • Port Hedland Cemetary recording of oral histories; facilitate the upgrade of If you would like to pass the amenity of the area for comment, provide family Port Hedland residents and information or express your visitors of the site; and provide interest in the project please an opportunity to celebrate a send your responses to Director significant part of Port Hedland’s Community Development, Town history. of Port Hedland, PO Box 41, Port “It is important for the Hedland 6721 or by email to Town to preserve the history directorcd@porthedland.wa.gov. of Port Hedland – this upgrade au by Friday 15 April 2011. will ensure that the future This project is part of a generation of residents always have a historical reference and range of community initiatives something to look back and the Town of Port Hedland are reflect on,” said Mayor Kelly undertaking in partnership with BHP Billiton.

Howlett.

Town to move forward with GP housing project The Town of Port Hedland’s GP Housing Project is moving forward with the GP Housing Business Plan now advertised for public comment and the Town calling for request for proposals for design and construct of housing.

This resolution was made at the Ordinary Council Meeting on Wednesday 23 February, following a previous Council decision on Wednesday 10 November 2010 for the preferred construction site; Lot 5551 Dempster Street, Port Hedland.

“It is important for Council to support essential services to enable the long-term sustainable growth of the town and that is what the GP Housing Project aims to achieve by providing attractive incentives for GP’s to work in our town,” said Mayor Kelly Howlett.

The Town is funding the project through a selfsupporting loan of $1.5 million and the Business Plan outlines the impact of the loan and the development of the preferred

site within the Town of Port Hedland.

Stage One of the project has received funding from BHP Billiton Iron Ore and Royalties for Regions, with each proponent contributing $1.5 million each.

The community responses from the Business Plan will be presented to Council at the Ordinary Council Meeting on Wednesday 27 April 2011.

Community members can access a copy of the GP Housing Business Plan from the Civic Centre (McGregor Street, Port Hedland), South Hedland Library (Leake Street, South Hedland), Port Hedland Library (Dempster Street, Port Hedland) and on the Town’s website: www.porthedland. wa.gov.au.

All comments must be received by the Town of Port Hedland by Friday 15 April 2011 and must be directed to the Chief Executive Officer, Town of Port Hedland, PO Box 41, Port Hedland, WA, 6721.

POLICEWATCH Don’t let your party get out of control

By Senior Constable Newby If you are planning a get together at your home, there are a few simple steps that you can take to ensure all your guests are happy and all your neighbours stay happy.

Out of courtesy, let all your neighbours know that you plan on having a party and when you intend to finish.

This reduces the possibility of Police being called by your neighbours.

Register your party at the Police Station with Party Safe.

You will be provided with a booklet with easy to follow tips to assist you in reducing the risk of intoxicated guests or gate-crashers.

It also allows police to have forewarning of the party and a contact person should they need to attend.

Ensure there is plenty of food and water available for your guests.

Have low or non-alcoholic drinks available for your guests.

Using cans or plastic cups reduces the risks of broken glass.

Remember every Police car is a booze bus so you need to reduce the risk of your friends losing their license or causing a traffic crash by allowing

Liquor licensing laws do not allow you to sell alcohol, request a cover charge or provide juveniles with alcohol.

If you do intend on charging a fee for entry or to sell alcohol, an application for an Occasional Licence must be made through the Court for a permit.

By following these steps your party will be enjoyable for all your guests including yourself.

New facility to become the home for sports in Karratha A landmark development on Hunt Way will complete the multimillion dollar transformation of the Bulgarra Sporting Precinct, offering uninterrupted views across playing fields and a purpose-built function centre.

Roebourne Shire Council recently awarded Perth-based building and construction company, Cooper & Oxley the tender to design and construct the $3.6-million facility which is due for completion in early 2012.

The Bulgarra Community Centre boasts both indoor and outdoor entertainment areas with a fullyequipped kitchen and servery, as well as four change rooms, first aid post and dedicated umpires room.

The innovative, energy-efficient building design meets the latest universal access requirements, is family-friendly with multiple baby change facilities and will incorporate a high-impact public art project.

Shire of Roebourne President Nicole Lockwood said the Bulgarra Community Centre would become the “home” of sports and recreation across the region.

Councillor Lockwood said she was excited to be taking the first step towards finally delivering on this highly-anticipated community project.

“We’ve been talking about the need for a first-class sporting venue at Bulgarra Oval for a number of years and I am pleased this council has been able to get it off the ground,” she said.

“The Bulgarra Community Centre is part of a wider investment in sports and recreation across the Shire of Roebourne including the construction of two softball diamonds, one with dugouts and fencing, a multi-user storage shed and upgrades to parking, electrical supply and lighting at Bulgarra Oval.

“Life can’t be about all work and

no play, it is critical that Council supports the ongoing development of individual and team sports through the provision of modern, well-equipped facilities.”

The Bulgarra Community Centre will directly benefit countless sporting organisations including football, cricket, rugby, softball, teeball, touch football, soccer, netball and tennis.

Once complete it will be available for hire for both private and public events.

Keep an eye on local media for regular project updates.

For more information about the Shire of Roebourne, visit www. roebourne.wa.gov.au.

The Bulgarra Community Centre is proudly funded by the WA Government through the Country Local Government Fund, the Pilbara Development Commission and the Shire of Roebourne.

Prison volunteers required The Independent Visitor Scheme, run by the Office of the Inspector of Custodial Services in Perth, are currently seeking volunteers for Roebourne Regional Prison.

If you think you would feel rewarded by helping offenders in custody, why not volunteer as an Independent Visitor?

Full training is given and you would be providing a valuable community service.

Visitors listen and talk with offenders in custody and provide them with an independent voice.

They are not there to

solve the problems - but to make sure the right people hear their concerns and to help ensure that prisons operate justly and humanely.

Inspector of Custodial Services, Professor Neil Morgan, said “Volunteers make a significant and positive contribution to the custodial system” he said.

“They help ensure prisons become places that stop the offending cycle, rather than act as a warehouse until release.

“With local knowledge, visitors provide important information about how the prison in their community

operates and how it is performing to help those incarcerated.”

Volunteers visit their prison at least once every two months for 3-4 hours.

Following a visit, a short report is provided to the Office of the Inspector of Custodial Services, however the report is not complicated and full training is given.

A mileage allowance is also payable.

If you would like to find out more about the Scheme or would like an Information Pack, posted to you please telephone 9212 6200.

Lucky local wins Smales diamond ring Women from all over Australia were recently given the chance to win an exclusive diamond ring from the Hearts on Fire Range which luckily Port Hedland’s own Pia Thornett won.

Online wedding website www.theknot. com.au held a competition for brides to be to win a beautiful Hearts On Fire, Transcend Single Halo Diamond Ring set in Platinum with a 1carat Hearts On Fire Dream cut centre diamond worth $14530.00.

The competition, named ‘What sets your heart on fire?’, required entrants to apply online and tell them in 50 words exactly what sets their heart on fire.

Pia had entered the competition in December 2010 after seeing the ring on display at a Smales road show in Port Hedland, Western Australia’s exclusive stockist of Hearts On Fire.

“I had seen this ring at the road show and fallen in love with it” she said.

• Pia Thornett was over the moon when she found out she won

SMALES JEWELLERS

“I had tried this very ring on three times already but in a lot smaller carat size so I was just absolutely amazed to have won it!”

When Pia was notified in January she was with her partner; Chicko, and needless to say she was in shock.

“I was in the car with my boyfriend, luckily he was driving because I was going a little crazy” she said.

“I felt so thrilled to be the winner and I also felt a bit bad for my boyfriend, we have been together 8 years and the family is always on to him to propose so he has kind of been backed in to a corner now.”

Although not yet to be engaged, Pia still takes joy in wearing her ring on every occasion possible.

“It is being kept for a special occasion, but turns out I have a special occasion most days so it seems to find its way onto my finger pretty often.”

Did you know?

On January 25, 1905, at the Premier Mine in Pretoria, South Africa, a 3,106-carat diamond was discovered during a routine inspection by the mine’s superintendent.

Weighing 1.33 pounds, and christened the “Cullinan,” it was the largest diamond ever found.

Studying at the Pilbara TAFE, Hedland

Sculpture Class

By Amanda Firenze Pentney

Port Hedland plant of the week

Ipomea

Sweet Caroline

By Hedland Down to Earth conditions.

With the New Year come varieties of plants.

A striking and eye catching plant first released in Australia with colours red purple and light green.

The Ipomea species are members of the morning glory family Convolvulaceae Ipomea Batalas, the cultivated species.

This plant is a fast growing vine, possessing a wide variety of leave shapes ranging from palmate and deeply lobed, to cordate or triangular shapes leaves with no lobes.

Ornamental sweet potato has been bred, for unique foliage colours don’t produce large fleshy storage roots like sweet potato.

The plants are highly desirable due to their ability to grow under varied stress

They cover a large space, last an entire growing season and have few insects or disease problems.

It has colours ranging from chartreuse leaves to deep burgundy, sweetheart red, sweetheart purple and sweet light green.

Best planted in partial shade, the sweet heat variety does tolerate heat and is very low maintenance.

It does prefer fertile and well drained soil and regular watering.

A great companion for the Ipomea’s are Felicia daisy, petunias and Geranium.

Also great in pots and hanging baskets as they mound up then drape over the sides of the pots.

We have 14cm pots available at Hedland Down to Earth for $15.

BOAT SOURCE

• We get the best deals because we have access to so many quality boats at Wholesale Prices.

• It costs less to use Boat Source than do it yourself.

• We have trusted people in the US who personally check out your boat before you spend money on surveys.

• We only deal with quality boats and walk away from lemons.

• You send your money to an Australian account.

• If you buy direct it usually takes at least 2 months longer to get the boat on the water, this can be a very nervous time as you have really no idea what you’re getting.

It is the time of the year to be a little contemplative I think.

The kids have settled back into school, the holidays are over and some of us are revisiting our new year’s resolution to get our mind going, or to find a new hobby or even just to find something to do that gets us out of the house on a regular basis.

If you are looking for something fun to do that is stress free and doesn’t cost a bomb, may I suggest the sculpture unit that is part of the Visual Arts Certificate at Hedland TAFE. So many people say to me that they would love to study art but that they aren’t creative or that they couldn’t handle the pressures of study.

To these people I say everybody is creative.

Without fail when you start asking them what they do in their spare time or what interests them it turns out to be something creative.

You don’t have to want to paint a masterpiece to be creative – you just have to find something you enjoy and do it.

It may also be that you haven’t found your creative medium yet and this is why a course through the TAFE can be so brilliant – you get to try so many different things.

This leads me on to the second thing people say about the pressures of study.

Guess how many assignments I have to do for the sculpture unit?

None. Essays?

None.

Exams? None.

Let me tell you what I have to do.

I have to undertake 10 experiments in creating sculptures taking 15 minutes to 1 hour for each experiment.

So far I have used some modelling clay to create a very weird looking little woman, experimented with plaster bandage, undertaken some paper mache, chiselled away as some hebel block and created some paper mache clay I found a recipe for on the internet.

• Amanda Firenze Pentney enjoys sculpture as part of her Visual Arts Certificate at Hedland TAFE. After this I have to produce three small sculptural pieces related by a common concept.

I have decided to make paper mache clay sculptures of the characters out of my books, another student made little people out of telephone pages.

Then I have the option of creating a 3D artwork from a sculpture kit or creating a piece of assemblage art which is the option I am going for.

I have decided to steal my kids’ toys and try and make a Transformer out of them.

Of course eventually I will give them back, but not until I get to show off my sculpture and the bonus will be less mess in

their bedrooms until then.

It is a requirement of the unit that I do some research about sculpture and my artworks but this really is as simple as having a look on the internet, thinking about what I want to do, talking to other artists, students and teachers and being inspired by the world around me.

After this I put down my thoughts and notes on my work into my visual diary and I am ready to go.

So for the bargain price of $162.40 I get out one night a week to have a great time in a stress free environment in the guise of studying sculpture.

No wonder I am thrilled about it.

The heat is on at the All Season’s The All Seasons Hotel, Karratha and Beatzworkin Productions have recently teamed up together to bring you the Sunday Heat Wave, the ideal Sunday session in Karratha.

Perfectly fitting in with the bank holiday weekend, the first session kicked off on Sunday 6 March from 1pm till 6pm, and will continue throughout the month of March but with a new time of 12pm till 5pm.

All Seasons, Karratha Assistant Manager Tristan McLachlan said that if the event proves to be popular, extending it will be taken into consideration.

Set in an idyllic spot by the pool, the day saw various DJs play their sets to entertain the crowd such as Bounce, Dr Bob, Dekhedz, The Enormous Hat, Dark and Dirty and Geasts.

Tristan McLachlan said that the first Sunday Heat Wave went really well and had over 80 people in at one time.

“It was a really good day but once the word of mouth gets out there, hopefully it will be a lot more popular” he said.

“It’s just a perfect outlet

• Clive and Donoghue beat the heat in the pool at the All Seasons

• Micah, Damien and Mandy for a Sunday session, it just screams out a chilled out relaxed Sunday” “We’ve got the pool and the DJs playing, and the bar outside just makes it ideal.”

Check out the Sunday Heat Wave this Sunday and every Sunday in March at the All Seasons Hotel, Karratha from 12pm till 5pm.

Food and drinks are available from the Saloon Bar and Pool Bar, entry is free.

British India are on their way to K-town

Melbourne based band, British India are all set to play at the Karratha Tavern on 18 March as part of their three month ‘March into the Ocean’ tour around Australia.

British India first came into the spotlight in 2007 with their acclaimed debut album Guillotine.

Their popularity rose as songs such as Black and White Radio, Tie Up My Hands and Run the Red Light were played in venues and festivals across the nation.

They have since toured around Australia playing an extensive amount of gigs and festivals such as Big Day Out, Falls, Pyramid Rock, Southbound, Homebake and Splendour In The Grass to name a few.

When it comes to their style of music, singer Declan says the band aspires to make different music but they always limit themselves to two guitars, bass, drums and voice.

“All different kinds of music might be in our minds, but under that umbrella and with that limitation it sounds very much like British India” he said.

“It’s got quite a punk type of attitude to it too.”

Growing up, the boys listened to some great influential bands and artists such as The Smashing Pumpkins, Oasis and Blur as well as The Beatles and John Lennon and agree they have been influenced by them but believe they have their own individual sound.

“I think the trick is to keep open

minded to different influences and not block anything out, and then once it goes through the British India filter its becomes very much our own” Declan said.

When it comes to writing their music the Melbourne boys make it a joint effort but often write the music first before writing the lyrics.

“I think anyone in the band would find it very corny to be sitting around whistfully strumming a guitar and putting it to some kind of poetry, we’re more about getting together, the four of us and banging away on a certain groove” Declan said.

British India are well known for their energetic live shows which Declan said originally came with the need to establish themselves in the music scene.

“When we first started we needed to stand out from quite a lot of bands so I think that by being really energetic and enthusiastic on stage we were able to do that, but also when we first met, Nick was really influenced by Jimmy Hendrix and Pete Townsend, and they play like hell anyway, so when we all first plugged in together and we saw Nick just run riot on the guitar, we all just had to try and keep up.”

The band recently ended 2010 with a tour around the UK and now back in Australia they are all excited to get stuck into their three month tour, which began in Ballarat, in their home state Victoria.

Singer Declan said being on the road is

• Melbourne band British India will play at the Karratha Tavern this week. what the band love the most.

“Its great, its hard to talk about because so many of the things we do are so cliche but we just all enjoy each others company, and travelling around and venturing to strange places we’ve never been to before really excites us” he said.

Shortly after finishing the tour, the boys will head to New Zealand, America and back to Europe late July before returning to Australia to get back into the recording studio.

The new single March into the Ocean, released 20 February, has already proven its worth, being played on every radio station and

in every bar, and two weeks after its release was voted as Channel [V] Ripe Clip of the Week.

“It was quite a while in the making,” Declan said.

“But once we got it sounding enthusiastic and good, with a strong melody and a nice tempo, we showed it to our manager who really liked it.”

“They said lets record it and put it up for free on the internet and get it on the radio, and show people what we’ve been doing and checking where we’re at, its also a great statement intention for our next album and to show what kind of sounds are turning us on and

what we’re doing in writing.”

Touring with bands Boy in a Box and City Riot, British India will arrive in Karratha for the first time on 18 March at the Karratha Tavern and we’ve been told to expect nothing less than a party.

“Expect a cool party and a good time because thats what we do” Declan said.

“We’re not the kind of stuck up jaded hipsters that you find around the tracks, we’re full of excitement.”

Tickets can be purchased from the Karratha Tavern or Trax Records.

Doggy intuition You may have heard many stories relating to animals intuition and many of you have probably had an experience yourself.

Animals, especially dogs, are regarded as having a sixth sense about things that humans do not foresee or pick up on.

On Monday 21 February, Julie Eardley a SAFE volunteer and supporter had her own fortunate experience with animal intuition.

While at home with her two children, nephew and two dogs, a storm started to brew in her street.

Her female dog, Ali started to bark incessantly outside.

She knew that her dogs (both adopted from SAFE) were growing more and more concerned and agitated with each minute.

Finally to comfort the dogs she brought them inside the house.

Clearly distressed, Julie hoped that they would settle down by being inside the house with the family.

It was not five minutes after Ali’s warning barking that a tornado

Less then a minute later it was gone, but having done enough damage to make the home unlivable.

After surveying the damage, she thought back to Ali’s obvious distress and panic that ended up potentially saving the life of herself and the family’s other dog Boof.

Disregarding the damage to their home, Julie was simply relieved that her family and her pets were SAFE.

Free Weekly 12 March 2011

It’s just a twin thing Twins, triplets, quadruplets and more will join in and celebrate Multiple Birth Awareness Week (MBAW) from 13 to 20 March.

MBAW is a nationally annual event that celebrates the joy of parenting multiples, but it also aims at educating communities and professionals about the challenges these parents face.

Karratha is home to a few families with twins, with one set of triplets born last week.

Eight mothers to twins and now triplets in Karratha have formed a mothers group, meeting once a month.

Chelsea Elmer, mother to twins Jai and Malcolm said that there is an automatic bond between mothers that have twins because of that mutual understanding.

“Everything is harder having twins” she said.

“They do everything together, when one is

• The Karratha multiples mothers group teething so is the other, when one is sick, so is the other.”

“Having two children of separate ages is different to having twins because they aren’t going through every stage at the same time.”

“It’s also hard finding support groups and other mothers that understand exactly what you are experiencing.”

Parents of twins can register with The Australian Multiple Birth Association, a not-for-profit organisation that provides support, resources and education.

Most states also offer a further association including Perth and Districts Multiple Birth Association.

For further information on Multiple Awareness Week visit www.amba.org.au

Did you know?

1 in 250 pregnancies can result in identical twins.

In some African countries such as Nigeria, the rate of twin pregnancies can be as high as 1 in 20.

Last week’s competition at Karratha Golf Club was the Monthly Mug event sponsored by Air Dynamics and Darren Beier, the Karratha Golf Professional.

A strong field of sixty eight golfers turned out to test their mettle in this stroke event.

The course may be looking fantastic, but with every Beauty there is a Beast, and the seasonal hazards of water on the course and prolific growth in the rough make the playing just a little more difficult than normal.

In the novelty prizes the nearest the pin prizes went to Gary Breedon on hole 3, Michael Pennings on hole 8, Peter Schneider on hole 11 and Mark Smyth on hole 16.

Longest putt on hole 2 was Monica Plane and Susanne Byrne on hole 18.

Best 3rd shot was Dave McLaren on holes 4 and 6,

Andrew Pilton on hole 12, and Bodie Broun on hole 14.

Longest drive on hole 17 was Gina Hipworth and on hole 7, Shaun Uys. The best lady overall was Glenda Hickman with gross 52, nett 36.

Best Veteran was Mike Hilsz with gross 41, nett 34.

Dave McLaren had the best gross score of 40.

The top golfer of the day was Andrew Pilton with an outstanding gross 41, nett 30.

On the front nine, first was Alf Martin with gross 42, nett 33, second was Dave McLaren with gross 40 nett 35, and third was Glenda Hickman with gross 52, nett 36.

Karratha BMX Riders to Bring Home State Plates

By Nick Muller Last weekend over 500 BMX riders from around the State including 22 riders from the Karratha BMX Club travelled to Perth to compete in the 2011 BMX State Titles.

The Westside BMX Club in Balcatta have been busy over the last few months rebuilding their track and preparing to host the Titles and their hard work paid off with a well run event.

With a six metre high start ramp, riders were a little bit intimidated when they first arrived at the track but after Pre State events and practise sessions in the week leading up to the State Titles, all of the Karratha riders soon felt comfortable riding down the ramp.

Saturday morning saw the official opening and riders march past before the Sprockets and Cruisers took to the track.

There were five Karratha riders competing on Saturday, they were Rodney Gethin (45+ Cruiser), Greg Kiehne (40 – 44 Cruisers), Patricia Kiehne (19+ Women’s Cruiser), Teagan Singer (18 and under Women’s Cruiser) and Abbie Kiehne (Girls Sprockets).

All riders did extremely well with Rodney taking out the number 3WA plate and Teagan taking out the 7WA plate.

Sunday saw the twenty inch class riders on the track for their races; the first three or four races of the day gave an indication of how hard everyone was trying with several riders coming off in each race.

The first aiders were kept busy but fortunately there were no serious injuries.

Karratha was again well represented with eighteen riders competing in the twenty inch class, these riders were Patrick Kiehne (8yo boys), Brady Kirkwood (9yo boys), Brodie Dewacht (9yo boys), Cruz Musitano (10yo boys), Dylan Bennetts (10yo boys), Elijah Lyon (10yo boys), Ryley Hinchcliffe (10yo boys), Jed Bullen (10yo boys), Will Kiehne (10yo boys), Callum Kirkwood (11yo boys), William Gethin (11yo boys), Dylan Muller (11yo boys), Isaac Lyon (13yo boys), Jarrod Dewacht (13yo

boys), Toby Muller (13yo boys), Michael Burch 15 (15yo boys), Macie Bennetts (12yo girls) and Teagan Singer (14yo girls ).

This was the first event of this size for a number of Karratha riders and although overwhelmed by the number of riders and the sheer size of the event, all riders did the Karratha BMX Club proud and showed how hard they had been training over the summer months.

Even though a couple of riders were unlucky enough to fall off, they dusted themselves off and were back on their bikes chasing other riders down as quick as they could.

• Karratha BMX Club riders ready to take to the track in Balcatt

A number of riders made the finals with the following riders taking home State plates meaning that they finished in the top eight for their age group Brady 6WA, Cruz 2WA, Dylan Bennetts 5WA, Isaac 3WA and Macie 4WA. With the State Titles over for 2011 the Karratha BMX Club will now concentrate on getting their race season underway.

The BMX track has held up well to the rain that we have had this year but will still need some work to get it ready for riders to begin racing.

• Cruz Musitano (centre) keeps his wheels on the track

The BMX season will start on the 25 March with a Fun Night for Club members and then a “Come and Try” day on the 27 March from 3pm.

Check out the Club website karratha. bmxa.com.au for further information.

BMX racing is held on a Friday night at the BMX track behind the caravan park on Rosemary Rd in Baynton from 6.00pm.

New members are always welcome, contact Karrathabmw@westnet.com.au for further information.
