Lions Deb of The Year Ball 2016 Celebrating 50 years, the Lions Club Debutante Ball was held on Saturday 4th June at the Young Services Club with over 200 guests in attendance to celebrate and support the participants and organisers of this amazing milestone.

Eleven Debutantes and their partners were presented on the night to the District Governor, Tony Smith (Cowra), and Helen Sell, the Secretary of Young Lions Club, with Mrs Barb Nuthall taking on the role of MC for the evening.

Mr David Butt once again cleverly choreographed the evening for the Debutantes together with their partners and the participants undertook two rounds of dancing before the judges Barry and Marilyn Miller (Boorowa) and Judy Smith (Cowra) were able to reach a decision.

The Debutante of the Year for 2016 was awarded to Sarah Murray, partnered by Nathan Hardy. Sarah was sashed by the 2015 Deb of the Year, Lucy Hall. First runner up went to Ashley Bennett, partnered by Will Arthur and second runner up was awarded to Meg Fung, partnered by Lachlan Tomes.

Tony Smith congratulated the girls and partners and stated that they were a credit to themselves and their families.

The Lions Club of Young Inc held its Inaugural Debutante of the Year Ball on 12th August 1966.

Our Debutante of the Year for 1966 was Cathy Smythe who now lives in South Australia.

The Debutantes for the past 49 years are spread far and wide throughout Australia and the World.

It started as a Community Event to bring the Debutantes from all the Balls in that year together.

As it has continued through the years any funds raised from the Debutante of the Year Ball have been donated to local worthwhile causes. œ'HEV RI <HVWHU\HDU¡ %DOOV ZHUH KHOG IRU the 30th and 40th Anniversaries with some previous Debutantes attending the events.

Hennessy students EHQHĂ&#x20AC;W IURP attending Da Vinci decathlon Hennessy is committed to Twenty First Century learning skills. The College fosters creativity and innovation, critical thinking and problem solving, communication and collaboration to enhance student skills in an environment outside of school.

On Tuesday, 31 May, a number of students from Hennessy Catholic College travelled to Canberra Grammar School to participate in the da Vinci Decathlon.

The Decathlon is an academic competition for students in Years 7 and 8. More than 29 public, private and Catholic schools from the ACT and NSW participated in a full day of academic activities, providing an opportunity for schools to compete against each other in a number of academic challenges.

Students were given group tasks in a vari-

ety of subjects including: spelling, engineering, art, poetry, code breaking, mathematics, philosophy and cartography.

Mia Hennock of Year 7 found the day both challenging and exciting. She said she really enjoyed presenting a play in front of more of VWXGHQWV RQ WKH VXEMHFW RI Ă&#x20AC;QGLQJ RXW WKHUH is a whole new universe we have just discovHUHG 6KH DOVR HQMR\HG FUHDWLQJ D ' DUWZRUN of a sea life landscape and then having to write a group poem to describe their artwork.

All students who attended the day were

unanimous in their comments with Callum Page of Year 8 saying: â&#x20AC;&#x153;The whole day was full of activities. It was an excellent experience.

7KHUH ZDV QRW D PRPHQW ZKHQ , ZDVQ¡W EXV\ Answering the questions and competing in different projects made the day really exciting.â&#x20AC;?

The students and staff who attended had a fantastic day and all agreed it was an opportunity for each student to show their skills, to be challenged, to take part in team building activities and just as importantly to have fun and learn at the same time.

Where are they now? - Joseph Kershaw Joe Kershaw was at Hennessy for six years.

He started year 7 in 2008 and completed his HSC in 2013. He enjoyed sport and his favourite activity was cricket. During his time at Hennessy Joe played in both the school knockout competitions: the Berg Shield and the Downey Shield. He trialled for the Canberra-Goulburn Archdiocesan team and was successful. From there he went onto trial for the CCC (Combined Catholic Colleges) team. Again Joe was sucFHVVIXO -RH ZHQW RQ WR PDNH WKH $OO 6FKRROV¡ team (made up of the best players from Catholic, Independent and state schools).

Initially he said, he found it daunting both working with staff that were once his teachers and now his teaching colleagues. Joe was particularly impressed returning to Hennessy seeing the many positive changes at Hennessy, including the new Hall and the shading of the whole of A Block.

Mr Porter ran primarily a china and glassware business in the Upper Lachlan Shire village of Gunning for 12 years before relocating to Murringo, where he runs his business and lives in a beautiful 1800s house, but he said he now had a focus on furniture and lighting. ´1RZ ZH¡UH FRQFHQWUDWLQJ RQ WKH OLJKWLQJ ,¡YH QRZ GLYHUVLĂ&#x20AC;HG LQWR ODPSV HVSHFLDOO\ WKH old lamps - I like to try to get a hold of those,â&#x20AC;? he said.

They have found themselves a restorer who is restoring furniture for them and this is proving to be a very popular item in the Murringo store.

Here a few tips for you when selling your home.

1. De-Clutter â&#x20AC;&#x201C; One of the main points that add to the â&#x20AC;&#x153;cluttered lookâ&#x20AC;? is large amounts of furniture. Think about what you can really live without. Would the house look larger with half as much furniture?

2. Transform that space â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Is there a place in your house that is currently a wasted area for you, but to someone else could be a reading nook, study area or even a cosy snug? Move your furniture around and creDWH REYLRXV Ă RZV WR \RXU DUHDV DQG \RX may just transform that little corner in to your selling point.

3. Time to paint? â&#x20AC;&#x201C; A tip for painting to make a room look larger is to match the colour of paints on the walls that have Ă RZ WKURXJK DUHDV LQ WR DQRWKHU VSDFH ,I your kitchen and dining room are situated together, use the same colour to create the sense of space. Designers also recommend to increase the size of a smaller room to match the colour of your walls to your drapery to take your room to a new level of sophistication.

4. Threes not a crowd â&#x20AC;&#x201C; When it comes to placing accessories, odd numbers are preferable, especially in groups of three.

Designers suggest to place your accessories in a triangle shape and group textures, colour or shapes for a unifying look and vary heights of the items for maximum effect.

Capacity and powers of attorney When considering a Power of Attorney a perVRQ¡V FDSDFLW\ KDV GLPHQVLRQV 1. Legal capacity; 2. Mental capacity; and 3. Physical capacity.

Legal Capacity Both the principal and attorney must possess legal capacity.

Legal Capacity for the Principal The principal must possess legal capacity at the time the power of attorney is made. As legislation does not specify a minimum age for legal capacity to make a power of attorney then common law principles apply. Basically this may mean that the person giving the power RI DWWRUQH\ KDV D VXIĂ&#x20AC;FLHQW XQGHUVWDQGLQJ DQG intelligence to enable him or her to understand fully what is proposed.

'RHV WKH DWWRUQH\ KDYH VXIĂ&#x20AC;FLHQW XQGHUVWDQGing of the nature and role of an attorney is the key enquiry. The other requirement is that the attorney must not be bankrupt.

Mental Capacity There is a presumption of Mental Capacity of the principal. The onus of rebutting this presumption lies on the person asserting that the principal does not have mental capacity.

Physical Capacity (functionality) It is considered that the principal must sign the instrument creating the power of attorney personally for it to be effective.

Capacity is one of a number of issues to be considered when making a Power of Attorney.

This Week at Tipperary Golf Club When most sporting events were cancelled last weekend the members turned up at Tipperary to play, which is a huge compliment to the ground staff. The course held up well considering the weather that we had, and those who played returned some good scores.

We met a chap on Saturday who said he had been reading about the Tipperary Golf Club and said it seemed like we really enjoyed ourselves and had a good time at the club. We told him he should come out and join in the fun and play a round with us, and that people were always surprised by who

they met out there, as well it being a great opportunity to make new friends. For those wanting to play at TipTip perary, we will loan you the clubs if you need them.

The most important thing about when we play is when we return to the club house and enjoy a cuppa and a biscuit for just a gold coin donation, and have a good laugh about our games and who went in the FUHHN RU ZKR ZHQW RYHU WKH IHQFH Everybody is welcome even if you have never played before. Just come along and we will help get you started, or give Vera a ring on 63821475, or Barry on 63823704.
