Jessie Johnston A group of around 100 angry protestors gathered at the Mapua Wharf precinct on Sunday to object to the “bullying” Tasman District Council’s plans to build an “unnecessary” and “divisive” fence next to its Shed 4 retail complex. The council has been under fire for the fence which has been partly built between Shed 4 and a neighbouring business soon to be opened by Adele Calteaux who owned Hamish’s Ice-cream Parlour which closed in 2015. Council has stated the fence is necessary to protect the interests of one tenant in Shed 4 who will be competing with Adele’s business next door, and to secure gas bottles and rubbish bins of Shed 4 tenants. “There’s no need for the fence, the community has said we don’t

“No, this one was from our daughter who went overseas. We looked after it then fell in love, she’s absolutely useless but she’s gorgeous. She’s an eight year old cocker spaniel.”

“No, we’ve got a cat and some chickens. We’ve got a Siberian cat so she came from a breeder and the chickens just came from Appletons.”

“No, we contemplated the idea though, we [thought about] a Greyhound for a while, but decided against it and got a different kind of dog.”

“We’ve got a cat from the SPCA and we had a dog. He was a lovely dog, a King Charles Spaniel. We just had a look [in the SPCA] and there he was sitting there.”

Mapua to TDC: you’ve got it wrong FROM PAGE 1 want it,” protest organiser, Roger Griffiths says. “Council are elected to serve the public and I think they just get sidetracked. “I’m sure they’re nice people but it seems to me that someone’s just put his foot on the ground like a little kid and said it’s going to stay, on principle. With the public feeling around at the moment, I don’t think the fence is going to be built.” Shop owner Charisse Papworth says the fence blocks her business and others’ from visitors, potentially affecting their sales. On Sunday, protestors labelled the fence as “unnecessary” and a form of “bullying” by

council. “It blocks the view of all our businesses down that end,” Charisse says. “When people are standing down by the water they won’t even see that there are shops down here and I think why, why would anybody want to do that to anybody. “I just don’t understand why council don’t get it, that this in one wharf, one public area. Soon we’re going to need a passport to cross from one side to the next. My wish is that this becomes one wharf, one destination where we all work together.” Tasman mayor Richard Kempthorne says council is aware of the concerns about the fence but

he can’t comment on the issue until a decision on a related court hearing, over a dispute between council and Adele, is released. Richard says the judge at last Friday’s hearing did not give an indication of the timing of the decision. However, the construction of the fence has been temporarily stopped after councillors expressed concern that the budget for the Mapua Wharf development had been overspent by around $500,000. It is the second time construction of the controversial fence has been halted after an anonymous protestor had earlier cut down newly-erected fence posts.

But officers were against the proposal, saying it was important they remained in Richmond. “As a result of feedback from staff we’ve decided not to go ahead with the proposal,” says Mat. “In fact we’re going to go the other way and put more staff in Richmond, which will double its numbers.” Mat says policing numbers have been down in the district but an influx

Turbulence has hit a second newcomer into the Nelson airline market less than a year after launching. Last year Kiwi Regional Airlines, Originair and Jetstar all announced they would start flying to Nelson, joining Air New Zealand, Sounds Air and Air2There. But not even 12 months after the first of the three started flying, one has been grounded due to licencing issues and the other has been sold with the new owner not continuing the Nelson routes. On Friday, Kiwi Regional Airlines announced its sole aeroplane was to be sold to Air Chathams. In a statement it said the new owner would not continue with its current routes, including to and from Nelson and that the sale would be completed on July 30. Kiwi Regional Airlines offered flights from Nelson to Dunedin, Hamilton and Tauranga. All passengers that have booked flights after that date will have their airfares re-

Kiwi Regional Airlines has announced that it has been sold and that its new owner will not be flying to Nelson. funded, or given the chance to change to an earlier flight, said Kiwi Regional. Kiwi Regional Airlines CEO Ewan Wilson said Kiwi had “a choice to either expand by adding a second aircraft to our own fleet, guaranteeing reliability of service, and splitting the very high compliance costs; or be absorbed into a larger player.” Unlike Kiwi Regional, Originair’s problems aren’t financial, but procedural. Origin hasn’t flown since March, after the licence of its partner airline was suspended by the Civil Aviation Authority. It has been trying to stitch a deal together since and is

still confident of beginning its flights again soon. A staff member told the Weekly that news of when it will be flying again is due sometime this week. Grant Kerr, Head of New Zealand for Jetstar, says no such problems concern its operation. “We’re very pleased with the way our regional operation has been welcomed. “The new network is performing ahead of business case expectations. All the regional airports we fly to have reported significant increases in passenger numbers, with Jetstar helping to grow the overall market and local tourism. “We’re not going anywhere.”

Disappointment over Salisbury closure Simon Bloomberg

Former pupils of Salisbury School have joined in the growing chorus of criticism of the Ministry of Education’s decision to close the school with one pupil saying it is “short-sighted and poorly advised” while another lamented the closure of “an amazing school”. The Richmond-based residential school for Year 3 to Year 10 girls with complex needs, entered a consultation process last week after Education Minister Hekia Parata announced that its declining roll raised questions over its

future viability. That announcement has been slammed by unions, politicians and the school community who accuse the Ministry of constraining the enrolment process to reduce students numbers and force the school to be closed. “This is a good school,” former pupil Hope Young posted on Nelson Live Facebook page last week. “I went there 11 years ago and it helped me out a lot, it’s a shame that not everyone who needs that help will be able to get it from that amazing school.” Another former pupil Racquel Nancarrow says it’s a “shame this

John says there are about 270 young people with autism under the age of 18 registered with the Nelson-Marlborough branch of Autism NZ. He believes it would not be difficult to find students with severe autism from around New Zealand who would benefit from the 24-7 academic and life skills programmes that Salisbury School provides. “Despite assurances to keep the school open after the school’s successful High Court case in 2012, the Minister has allowed her Ministry to initiate a sinking lid process regarding enrolments at the school, citing that parents enrolling for the Intensive Wraparound Service (IWS) aren’t choosing Salisbury,” he says. “This is simply not true. Parents tell us they were not even offered Salisbury when applying for the IWS, and they had to go to extreme lengths to be allowed to choose Salisbury.” In a statement to the New Zealand Herald, Hekia says she understands the school’s disappointment, but it was “not true that I have been trying to close the school since 2012”. “Salisbury’s roll has fallen because the introduction of the Intensive Wraparound Service has provided parents of girls with high and complex needs an alternative to residential schooling that is proving popular,” she says.

Run brings Colour Craze to life

Jessie Johnston

Powdered paint brought an explosion of colour to Saxton Field on Sunday, as fun runners and walkers took part in Colour Craze. Organised by Tasman Youth Council, with support from Nelson Youth Council, Sport Tasman and the Ministry of Youth Development, Colour Craze is a celebration of the region’s multiculturalism. Kicking off at noon, participants flocked

to Saxton dressed in white and quickly began turning themselves into colourful works of art, before taking to the 2.5 kilometre course for either one or two laps. “We got really inspired by the multi-cultural community and everyone who was involved in that, and then we had lots of suggestions from other people and other groups who said they really wanted an event like this, so we did it. We wanted to incorporate so many different ide-

as from different people,” says Tasman Youth Council’s Taylah Shuker. “This is such a learning experience for us, holding an event this massive. I think we’ll use a lot of these concepts and ideas, and just improve it and keep making it bigger and better.” Around 400 people took part in Colour Craze, with the event successfully raising $3115. The profits from Colour Craze will be going towards the Nelson Multicultural Society.

Richmond Unlimited has a new chairperson after chartered accountant Marina Buonocore was elected to the position at the business group’s annual general meeting last week. Marina, who has been on Richmond Unlimited’s committee for two terms, replaces Brent Cheyne, who did not stand for re-election. A partner in the Richmond business Craig Anderson Chartered Accountants, Marina says Richmond Unlimited faces one of its biggest challenges with the Queen St upgrade scheduled to start later this year. “It will be a big challenge for us because we have to facilitate discussion between the Tasman District Council and Richmond businesses,” Marina says. “We’ve already held a couple of meetings to make businesses aware of what’s happening and get their input. “It’s going to be disruptive but it’s also going to be exNew Richmond citing for Richmond. We Unlimited chaircan’t have a repeat of the person Marina flooding that hit the town Buonocore. so it has to be done and it’ll be a chance to give Queen St a makeover.” Marina says Richmond Unlimited will also be implementing the second phase of the gateway signage project that started last year. Two gateway signs have already been erected with another three planned so that all five entranceways to Richmond will be covered. A keen multisport athlete who has competed in the Coast to Coast, Marina is also member of the Nelson Triathlon and Multisport Club committee where she is treasurer. She has been joined on the Richmond Unlimited committee by Richmond Mall manager Belinda de Clercq who is deputy chairperson. The other committee members elected last week are: Craig Woodbury (Wooden Spoon Cafe), Sue Davies (Waimea Weekly), Jane Cunliffe (Hothouse), David Turnout (Rented.org. nz), Kelly Osborn (Crowe Horwath), Sue Lubransky (Pacific.net) and Steve Page (Waimea Weekly). Richmond councillor Judene Edgar is the Tasman District Council representative and Kim Quint is the group’s event co-ordinator.

Lal engineers a successful career Simon Bloomberg

Nelson's Lal Cinzah has come a long way since he arrived in this country as a 14-year-old refugee from Myanmar in 2006. Lal was quick to embrace his new country, overcoming the "big challenge" of learning English to excel in his studies at Nelson College. He graduated from college in 2010 and subsequently became the first Chin refugee to gain an engineering degree from Canterbury University in 2014. On Friday, Lal added to his growing list of achievements by winning the Humes Young Achievers Award at the Civil Contractors NZ Nelson-Marlborough Branch Awards held at the Annesbrook Church. "It was a big challenge coming to a new country with a new culture and language and even food," Lal says. "But I was quite young so that helped me adapt and I made lots of good friends at school." Lal says he has always been interested in engineering because it's a practical profession that's all about solving problems. He joined Fulton Hogan in 2014 after completing 400 hours of practical work there in his third year as a student. "Working at Fulton Hogan has been really good as a graduate because they give me lots of opportunities to get experience. Engineering has lots of challenges and I really like the challenges." Fulton Hogan's regional manager Andy Allen says Lal's is "a good young guy and

"We interviewed a lot of graduates at the time we took on Lal and his qualifications and attitude put him ahead of the rest," Andy says. "He was someone we couldn't afford not to employ." Downer New Zealand won the Hirepool Supreme Award at Friday's awards, for the Rocks Rd Cliff Stabilisation contract. Downer had already won the ASB Bank Limited Health and Safety Award for the Rocks Rd Stabilisation contract which judges said had perfect health and safety practises on what was potentially an ex-

tremely hazardous site. Downer's Mike Riley says the contract was "technically very demanding", with staff working on a steep cliff above the busiest road in Nelson. Mike says their staff and key contractor, Ground, also had to work closely with residents because they needed access through their properties to complete the contract. "We had to put in a lot of rock anchors and reinforcing mesh on that cliff, and then spray concrete on to it and still keep the road open. We didn't have one health and safety or traffic issue, which is amazing."

"We also had to be respectful of everyone's properties. When you move into a street to do a job, you are moving into someone else's community - it's not your street, it's where these people live and you have to respect them." Downer also won Land Dimensions Ltd Projects Valued $750,000 to $1.5million for their Borck Creek Poutama Drain Upgrade. That contract was joint-winner of the ASB Bank Limited Health and Safety Award. The Hynds Projects Valued over $1.5million was won by Higgins Contractors Nelson for the State Highway 1 Dashwood Overbridge Realignment, while Mike Edridge Contracting won the Cable Price Projects Valued $200,000 to $750,000 for the Constellation Brands Erina Downs Irrigation Reservoir contract. Bryant Earthworks Ltd (Grovetown Gabion Works) and Fulton Hogan (Spooners Tunnel Approaches and Cycle Trail) were joint-winners of the Crowe Horwath Projects Valued $50,000 to $200,000. The Edridge Crushing and Screening for Projects Valued $0 to $50,000 Award was won by Mike Edridge Contracting for the Speeds Road Bridge contract. The Bank of New Zealand Judges Special Recognition Awards went to Donaldson Civil for the Seaton Valley Stream Widening and Bryant Earthworks for their role in the emergency support to Marlborough Kaikoura Rural Fire Authority during a busy fire season.

For the love of Greyhounds

Jesse Johnston

Greyhound owners all around the world took time to celebrate their dogs last Sunday during the Global Greyhound Walk, including the Nelson branch of Greyhounds as Pets. Greyhounds as Pets New Zealand (GAP) is a charitable organisation, established by Greyhound Racing New Zealand in order to find homes for retired racing greyhounds. Elise Walton is the area coor-

dinator for Greyhounds as Pets New Zealand and organised last Sunday's walk along the Railway Reserve to recognise the annual event. Around 15 dogs and their owners took part, the theme for their walk being 'Mad Hatters and their dogs.' Once a greyhound has left its racing career, it’s up to the Greyhounds as Pets organisation to help them find a new home where they will become a much loved pet. The adop-

tion process includes an application to be submitted by the prospective owners, followed by a home visit by one of GAP's volunteers, before people are matched with their ideal companion. For those who have adopted a greyhound, the Nelson branch meets once a month for a group walk. Anyone interested in adopting a greyhound is welcome to email Elise at elisewgap@gmail.com for more information on the organisation.

Waimea College student Abigail Marshall, right, and her French teacher Hilary de Joux are heading to the French Embassy in Wellington on Saturday to meet the French Ambassador. Photo: Simon Bloomberg.

History and French a winning combination for student Simon Bloomberg Waimea College student Abigail Marshall is preparing for the trip of a lifetime after being selected travel to France later this year for the 100th anniversary commemorations of New Zealand’s involvement in the Battle of the Somme. Abigail is one of 10 French language students from throughout New Zealand selected to be a Young Ambassador at the commemorations at Longueval in September. The two-week tour will include visits to historical and cultural sites where New Zealand soldiers made a significant contribution to World War I. Abigail says they will visit some of the most significant places for WW1 remembrance on the Western Front and take part in the World Youth Commemoration on September 15. They will also lead a school project related to the Great War and record a blog of their historical journey on the website sharedhistories.com “It’s an opportunity of a lifetime but I also know it will be a very sombre occasion - it will be very moving,” Abigail says. Abigail says she applied for the Young Ambassador role because she is interested in history and passionate about learning French. She says the World Youth Commemo-

ration of the Battle of the Somme will be “a great opportunity to link that history in with my French”. Abigail doesn’t have any ancestors who served in World War I and says she is keen to hear from any Nelson families who have links to the Battle of the Somme. She is keen to incorporate their stories into her blog and would be happy to lay a poppy on the grave sites of any soldiers from the battle with family connections to Nelson. French teacher Hilary de Joux says she is also interested in using any information on Nelson links to WWI and the Battle of the Somme in her senior French class programmes for next year. Hilary and Abigail can be contacted by email at hilary.dejoux@waimea.school.nz Hilary says the school is “very proud” of Abigail for being successful after what was “a very complex application process” that was available to every year 12 and 13 French language student in the country. Hilary encouraged people to follow Abigail’s journey on the Shared Histories website and its Facebook page which are “a big part of the project”. Abigail takes the first step on her journey this Saturday when she and Hilary meet the French Ambassador and take part in the event preparation and a special dinner at the French Embassy in Wellington.

Five-storey complex for Tahuna Tahunanui’s proposed Ocean Lodge development, to boost Nelson’s beachside suburb with a retail centre, restaurants and both residential and holiday apartments, could be approved within a few months. But the proposal is a shift from the larger scale supermarket complex that had earlier been discussed. Wakatu Incorporation has owned the site bordering Nelson’s Beach Rd and Muritai St for 20 years, with an intention to develop it for the last ten. They are now seeking approval to increase the number of storeys of the 39-unit apartment block from four to five, which also includes a ground-level car park. Iain Sheves, general manager of property for Wakatu Incorporation, presented indicative designs at a Nelson City Council meeting on Thursday, and said the final height will not exceed 16m, with no increase in the gazetted maximum height, which is currently 20m. He said that building the additional storey to the apartment block will give the project a “much better chance of going ahead” and leaving it as it is would result in marginal financial performance, design compromise or the build not proceeding. Iain said that while the design process is ongoing, they are aiming to provide a “local service centre” for the people of Tahunanui, which would include a restaurant and bar and a small scale supermarket, all to be serviced by 96 external car parks. “We have been working with both supermarket providers off and on, but it will be a smaller format store,” Iain told council. “We’re having a different conversation now than we were two or three years when we were talking about a larger supermarket.” He said the retail development could also give a new home to some of Tahunanui Drive’s businesses, who don’t benefit from the heavy traffic flow. Wakatu will submit the resource consent for the building as a “special housing area”, meaning the process for approval could be significantly quicker and not have the same notificaSweet and Scent Collection tion provision limited appeal rights. $49.99 per metre uncoated Iain says the consent will be lodged before September 1 and, if the consent is approved, then COLOURPLUS plans would need to beSTORE finalised, followed by Store Address a tender process beforeDetails, work could begin on PhoneThe Number the property. resource consent process for a specialwww.colourplus.co.nz housing area can take between 20 and 70 days, depending on the type of application.

Mapua wharf: Thanks for your detailed article. I suspect anger is not enough. Action is required. An article assessment of Kempthorne-McKenzie responses, suggests they are into personal job protection mode and have forgotten they are dealing with public money. Private sector business would see McKenzie and department heads responsible for this debacle seeking fresh employment, or at least the Town Clerk’s salary being cut accordingly.

to be inclusive for students, who need a school like Salisbury. Sandy Brown. They will come to regret it. Then in ten years (or less) come to see that they need a residential home for these students. Of course, Salisbury would have been sold off to highest bidder by then, eight hectares of prime land after all, and they won’t have a site/professionals/money to rebuild it. We have seen it time and time again. Meanwhile, a nine year old is sent off to CHCH?? Judy Powley. Well, National, you have got your wish, but there are students in this country who really need the safe security of a place like Salisbury School, but you did not listen the last time it was discussed, you won’t listen now. Once something has gone, it is never replaced. Let us know how much you get for the land, and stop calling a secure safe home for vulnerable young women an institution. It is propaganda to cover up your real plan to make money from that site. Delia Morris-Zindel. This is a good school, I went there 11 years ago and it helped me out a lot. It’s a shame that not everyone who needs that help will be able to get it from that amazing school. Hope Young. Criticism of TDC: I believe that the people of Nelson Province should know Tasman District Council (TDC) is being

particularly deceitful at the moment. I know this first hand through our dealings with them regarding the 117 year old grandstand at the Takaka Recreation Ground. Their press release of 9 June 2016 (on their website) regarding the grandstand was worded “The Tasman District Council has confirmed the grandstand at the Takaka Recreation Park will be removed as planned and consulted on, subject to Heritage NZ approval, to make room for the new Golden Bay Community Recreation Facility.” In translation to absolute truthfulness and transparency this would read “The Tasman District Council has confirmed the grandstand at the Takaka Recreation Park will be demolished, subject to Heritage NZ approval, to make room for car parks”. The proposed new building is not on the site of the current grandstand, they can co-exist. Two radically different realities. Only one example of many. Jill Pearson.

ART EXPO: Gary Gibbens with some of his seven impressionist landscapes on exhibition at the Art Group Nelson Winter Exhibition during the weekend. Art Group Nelson hold two exhibitions a year, one in the winter and another in the summer. Photo: Brittany Spencer.

Brittany Spencer From oils, pencils, acrylics, watercolours, textures and sculptures, the Art Group Nelson Winter Exhibition had art left, right and centre. Just under 50 local artists filled the Stoke Memorial Hall with around 300 pieces for the weekend-long exhibition. As a member of 40 years, former Wakefield artist, Gary Gibbens is one of Art Group Nelson’s life members and says he really enjoys exhibiting his work. “A lot of people make comments, some are good and some are not so good but there’s no mistakes in art, one person may not like it but another will walk by and buy it.” Gary says he enjoys taking photos of the local landscapes and then going back to his shed to paint them. “I love painting Lake Rotoiti and I’d spend more time up there but it’s too bloody cold,” says Gary. “I tried painting lakeside once but it all blew into the river, I was just about to paint something and then the whole lot went in the water so I thought ‘flag this, I’m going home’.” Art Group Nelson president Lyn Broughton says the exhibition was just brilliant. “It was a great opportunity for members to bring the art they do as a hobby out of the woodwork and into an exhibition. “We had plenty of sales and the most expensive piece ,‘Endangered Beauty’, a beautiful coloured pencil tiger by Bernd Huff was the first to sell, a lady walked right in, fell in love with it and said, ‘I’ll have it’.” As well as live art demonstrations, visitors got the chance to place vote for the People’s Choice Award and Bernd’s popular tiger took out the category.

Natureland opens new kaka aviaries Brittany Spencer Reporter

Locals can now get up close and personal with native kaka after Natureland officially opened up their Conservation Corner yesterday. The breed-for-release area has been under construction for six months and in the pipeline since Natureland trustees Mike Rutledge and Meg Selby “first walked in the door”. “Since we took over, this is something we’ve been really passionate about making happen, so it really is exciting,” says Mike. “What we’re trying to do here is engage as many people as possible with some of the fantastic conservation work that is going on in the back blocks of the Abel Tasman, Nelson Lakes and a lot of other places.” Mike says its great to finally be able to show visitors their new birds and breeding programme. “We want to show off the work of other conservation projects and show how all these pieces connect together around bio

fledged birds ready to be released into the wild.” Natureland are working with Project Janszoon, the Department of Conservation and the Brook Waimarama Sanctuary. “We’re using the expertise of Natureland to provide environments that are going to be really conducive to breeding and be able to turn out birds that are really well prepared to go out and survive in the wild,” says Mike.

Z Energy helps out in the hood Z Energy Richmond did some Good in the Hood again this year when they handed out $4000 in donations to four of the district’s most deserving non-profit groups. Every Z Energy station in the country ran the annual Good in the Hood programme in May when their customers voted for one of four community groups to receive a share of $4000. St John Ambulance, Barnardos, the Nelson Ark and Richmond Riding for the Disabled were the community groups chosen by Z Energy in Richmond and those groups went to the Gladstone Rd station last Thursday to receive their donations. St John Ambulance topped the poll with 6000 votes which equated to a donation of $2043. Richmond RDA got 2170 votes and $738, the Nelson Ark received 2019 votes and $688 while Barnardos received 1559 votes and $531. St John’s Sarah McCabe says the donation will go towards supporting their ambulance services. “We have to raise $1000 a day to keep our ambulance service running in Richmond and Nel-

If they are not going, we are not going,” Jenny says. The Nelson Ark’s Karen Howieson says they will use the funds to help pay for the lease of a van used to transport students and their dogs to classes. Barnardos Nelson will use the $531 they received for their Active Dads programme.

The idea of working for nothing may seem strange, but that is exactly what thousands of New Zealanders do every day of the week by giving up their free time to be volunteers. “About one in three people in New Zealand is a volunteer, which is one of the highest in the world and supports the claim that New Zealanders are some of the most generous people around,” says Volunteer Nelson’s assistant manager, Gordon Oldfield. This number reflects those people regularly undertaking a specific task within an organisation, but if less formal volunteering was included in which volunteers did a street collection or assisted in an event, the num-

ber would be even higher. “Volunteers can be found in just about every sector including health and social services, emergency services, environmental services, conservation and community sports, says Volunteer Nelson manager, Katy Steel. “We would not recognise our community without volunteers.” The range of volunteering opportunities in the Nelson Tasman region is enormous and the core business of Volunteer Nelson is to refer people who have registered with the agency to organisations that need volunteers. Recently, a new online volunteering referral system has been added to the Volunteer Nelson

Volunteer Nelon organises Community nd Whanau meetings, an pen forum for members f the public, representaves of community oranisations, Nelson City ouncillors and council aff to meet, network and sten to presentations of sues affecting the community.

But perhaps the most important way that Volunteer Nelson supports the community is by holding low cost workshops that are aimed at improving the effectiveness of community organisations. These workshops cover areas such as governance, financial management, and using social media. In October last year Volunteer Nelson organised a national speaking tour for Rob Jackson who is a consultant to a number of large not-for-profit organizations in the UK. The subject of his presentation was engaging volunteers in the 21st century and was well received by

attendees. National Volunteer Week will run from June 19 to 26 this year and traditionally Volunteer Nelson holds an event to recognise and celebrate volunteering in the region. This year, a graduation celebration will be held at the Nelson Fire Station to complete the Youth in Emergency Services project. Seventeen youth between the ages of 16 and 18 years have participated in the project, which was held for the first time in Nelson.

being entirely dependent on them. Youth in Emergency Services began in February this year and ends on Thursday 23 June. Its purpose was to introduce youth to the emergency services in two phases. The first included theoretical presentations by each service, followed by a practical session on the weekend. The second phase required the young volunteers to select a service and participate in its activities. The graduation celebration will be attended by Hon. Dr Nick Smith, Mayor Rachel Reece (NCC), Mayor Richard Kempthorne (TDC) and Kevin Grimwood of the

Ministry of Youth Development. The Youth in Emergency Services forms part of Volunteer Nelson’s youth volunteering programme, an initiative to develop youth volunteering in the region. So, would you consider working for nothing? Volunteers will tell you that you get so much out of it, that it connects you to your community and it helps you learn more about yourself.

Tasman Wheelers president steps down Simon Bloomberg

One of Nelson and Tasman’s cycling’s longest serving officials is getting off his bike after more than a quarter of a century of helping organise, marshal and promote races around the region. Malcolm Saunders will be stepping down from the Tasman Wheelers committee at the club’s annual general meeting on Thursday after 24 years as president. It will mark the end of an era for the club which has grown from around 30 riders to 240 during Malcolm’s presidency, to become one of the biggest and most successful clubs in the country. “The club is in very good heart and has an exciting future with a lot of things to look forward to,” Malcolm says. “We also have a good team coming in with Christine (van Hoppe) as president, so it’s a good time to step aside.” Malcolm, who cycled “competitively as a youngster in Christchurch”, became involved with Tasman Wheelers soon after it was formed in 1987, taking over from founding president Dave Glover in 1993. Malcolm says

cyclists around the region owe a big debt to the “bunch of guys wanted road racing around Nelson and Tasman” and had the enthusiasm and vision to form the Wheelers. “Eddie Saxon, Richie Howes, the late Les Vincent, Reg Davies, Russell Clementson and Gethyn Filer were all there at the start and they were a good bunch of guys. I came along after they adopted the constitution, so I wasn’t a founding member but I worked with Dave and then took over as president after a few years.” Malcolm says Tasman Wheelers has grown steadily over the last 24 years, partly as a result of the global increase in popularity of road cycling. However, Malcolm says the club has also played a key role by ensuring that it organises “consistent, good quality racing through some very good territory”. “We are lucky to have good courses here and we do a good job of handling all the traffic management. Cycling may have become more popular but a lot of clubs in the North Island have still given up because it’s too hard to put these races on. “We were one of the first clubs

to embrace traffic management when it came in and that gave our events a degree of acceptance by the authorities and the public. We have a very good relationship with the Tasman District Council and they know we are doing the right thing - keeping the riders and the traffic safe is a priority.” Malcolm says he has enjoyed many highlights in the last 24 years, including helping organise the TNL Tour which developed into the biggest tour in the country with around 190 riders. He has also enjoyed seeing the region’s young riders, like Commonwealth Games silver medallist Jack Bauer and protour rider George Bennett, come through the club ranks and go on to succeed in national and international races. Malcolm is immensely proud of the club’s achievements which he says are a result of a lot of hard work by all the committee members, sponsors, volunteers, parents and “all our wonderful riders”. Now that he will have his weekend’s free, Malcolm is planning to spend more time trout fishing and plans to get his bike out again and do some recreational riding.

It may be winter but that probably won’t stop families throwing togs and towels in a bag and heading to the Richmond Aquatic Centre, especially now that the wave pool is up and running again. After five weeks of maintenance the pool is once again full of water and at a beautiful 29 degrees celsius, you can leave winter behind when you step through the door. After signs of cracking appeared in one of the walls inside the wave pool, it was decided to bring forward some of the scheduled maintenance. “If we have to drain the pool we need to ensure we get as much as we can done within that period, because it’s a very popular pool. At the end of they day we didn’t want to close it but it needed to be done and now it is,” says facility manager Vaughan Hope. As well as fixing the wall, the wave pool has had the expansion joints on the bottom replaced, maintenance performed on the wave generator, the pools pumps were serviced, a regular task made much easier when the pool is out of operation, a massive deep clean of the pool bottom was completed and the safety poles around the outside of the pool

NOW OPEN many other user groups get enjoyment out of the facility. The wave pool is used by aqua joggers, kayakers who teach water safety, as well as training for those going out on commercial boats as it can simulate the rougher water conditions. “As soon as kids and parents heard the wave pool was reopening, they just went crazy and we’ve had so many people in there since, we’ve got a lot of feedback. We knew within the facility it was a great feature pool and we knew how many people used it but it’s not until the pools not operating that you really start to see how popular it is,” says Vaughan. The Richmond Aquatic Centre is unique within the region as it can cater to everyone at the same time, from six month old babies doing mother and baby water sessions, to seniors maintaining an active lifestyle. As well as the wave pool, the centre features a number of other pools including spas and a lane pool, a fitness centre, a swim school, after school care program, a holiday program and a café.

You could excuse Shane Tinetti and Jono Entwhistle for feeling like the odd couple at training at Jubilee Park over the last few months. While Waimea Old Boys rugby players have been scrumming, kicking and passing (backwards) at training, on the cold winter nights, Shane and Jono have been practising their snapping, sacking and rushing as they prepare for the biggest games of their careers. That's because the two Nelson Honeybadgers players have been selected for two national American football teams to play internationals later this year. Shane and Jono have been named in the national flag, or touch, team to play in the world champs in the Bahamas in September, while Jono will also play for the Steelblacks against American Samoa in the full contact version of the game in Auckland next month. They have been training together "in a corner at Jubilee Park" to prepare for the games, in between trips to Auckland to join their team-mates at national training camps. "We train at Jubilee Park because it has lights and the Waimea Old Boys guys are good enough to let us have a corner of the park to do our own thing," Shane says. "We've also been going up to Auckland every second or third weekend to train, so it's been a

big commitment." Shane, who plays defensive back, says it's a huge honour to be named in national teams and he's hoping that their selection will help lift the profile of American football in Nelson. The Nelson Honeybadgers have about 30 players at present and play in a 10-a-side flag competition at Tahunanui from October to December. "We've had an American football competition going for about a year in Nelson so it's still new," Shane says. "We have a real mix of guys - rugby players, hockey player and football players - and try and play in the summer so we don't clash with rugby and league. "It's just flag at the moment because you can have guys and girls and a mix of ages playing, which helps get more people involved. It also costs around $500 to gear guys up for contact so it's easier to start with flag, but once we get up and

running we'll look at a tackle team.” Jono, who plays quarter back, says he has been playing for more than a decade and has had a few injuries in his time. “My very first [tackle] game, my very first snap five years ago in Wellington, I got my ankle broken after I was sacked. “Then, a few years later, I was playing in Hawaii for the Southern Cross All Stars, which was a mix of Australia and New Zealand, and eight plays in I got carried off the field after my running back missed a block and I got lit up.” Jono says he likes the sport because of how specialised it is. “Different body shapes and sizes have different positions and it’s a chess match of a game. The complexities are really intriguing. It’s an unselfish sport.” The Steelblacks game against American Samoa will be played at Auckland on July 16.

Waimea surge past Prices late

SportS Golf: Greenacres golfer Ryan Chisnall will find out tomorrow if he has made the New Zealand Eisenhower Trophy team which will compete against the world in September. Chisnall’s efforts on the Charles Tour this season, combined with his third place finish at the Mexican International Amateur event last week will count towards whether he makes the threeman team. RuGby: A late try gave Wanderers a 27-24 win over Marist in Nelson Bays division one rugby on Saturday. Tasman Trophy winners Nelson beat Waimea Old Boys 53-3 and Stoke edged Kahurangi 36-29. In division two: Riwaka thrashed Tapawera/Murchison 53-0, Waimea Old Boys beat Nelson 40-22, Takaka beat Rangers 32-21, Huia and Stoke drew 17-17 and Wanderers and Marist drew 19-19. football: Nelson Suburbs lost their Mainland Premier League match 2-1 to Coastal Spirit at Saxton Fields on Sunday. Sam Ayers opened the scoring for Suburbs late in the first half but they could not hold the lead. It was their first defeat in 18 games at home. The Tasman United women’s team beat Waimak 5-3. Anna McPhie scored twice in the victory. RunninG: Nelson runners Jared Launtenslager and Kalani Sheridan finished fifth and eighth respectively at the New Zealand Secondary Schools’ cross country championships in Rotorua. Waimea College’s Bridie Edwards finished seventh in the senior girls race. All three will represent New Zealand at the Australian cross country championships in Canberra.

Waimea refused to accept the sporting script handed to them and came from behind late in the fourth quarter to beat Prices 26-24 in their senior 2 netball encounter. Prices held the lead almost exclusively at Saxton Stadium, until four minutes to go. Waimea were more composed with the game on the line, they treasured possession more and knew when to be slower and more deliberate with their passes through court. Several times it looked like Prices would build

on their slender advantage, but each time a poor pass or well-timed intercept thwarted their efforts. Both defences could be satisfied with their work, but it was the feeding into the attacking third and shooting circle for both teams which was lacking the accuracy. Waimea goal defence Louise Walker and wing defence Neve McKenzie were dynamic in picking off loose passes from Prices. However, they were matched by the Prices defensive duo of goal keep Rachel Portoreous and goal defence Kimberley

Binns. Prices led by four goals after the first quarter but that advantaged was trimmed back to 1212 at halftime. Prices controlled the third quarter but that didn't translate into a winning advantage on the scoreboard. Their two goal advantage at the final break was eventually erased. Waimea held their nerve to hang on to a two goal advantage. While Prices had a couple of late chances to draw level, they botched the opportunities and Waimea were left visibly thrilled to have held on for the win.

RuGby leaGue: Victory Phoenix timed their run to perfection to beat the Tahunanui Tigers 34-30 in their Tasman Rugby League match on Saturday. The Wanderers Wolves won by default against the Wairau Taniwha.

Congratulations boys on a great season so far

The formation of the Waimea Combined School’s 1st XV team may have been a recent event but already the team has seen four wins from seven games and promises a bright future in rugby for young players. Combining students from four of the regions colleges, Waimea, Garin, Nayland and Motueka, and three area school’s, Murchison, Takaka and Golden Bay, the Waimea Combined team gives players the opportunity to compete in a higher level of rugby than many would be able to if they played for their school’s 1st XV teams. Seeing the need for a team that offered this, a working group was brought together through the Tasman Rugby Union and from there MAGENTA YELLOW BLACK it was decided to create the Waimea Combined 1st XV, the idea receiving equal amounts

of praise and criticism. Governed by the Tasman Rugby Union, the team has an independent chair, Kevin Nalder, and a group of dedicated coaches, including Richard McIntosh as manager, Glenn Grant, head coach for the forwards, Glen Thompson, backs head coach, as well as James Lash and Don McLean who have come on board as technical advisers. “It’s fair to say that there were players in certain colleges, where the colleges couldn’t front a competitive 1st XV team to play in the University of Canterbury Championship competition, so a working group decided to bring it together. It went through a number of processes, people advocating for and against it, but ultimately it was deemed a good idea and the team was formed,” says Richard.

Formally known as the Press Cup, the University of Canterbury Championship includes the best 15 teams from within the Crusaders region. While Waimea was accepted into the championship a number of years ago, their level of competition has dropped over the years and without combining with players in similar situations from neighbouring schools, would have likely struggled to put forward a team this year. “It’s really to give the boys another option rather than all having to go to Nelson College to play UC cup rugby. Waimea in the last couple of years or more has lacked depth so bringing these other boys in gives them a chance to stay where they are at their own schools and play top level rugby, so it’s good for everyone,” says Glenn Grant. Formed without a selection

Father and son pair up for leg of Monaco marathon Jacob Page Gasping for air, hands on knees and struggling for that first spoken sentence were all common sights at the finish line of the Monaco mid-winter marathon on Sunday. Those first time finishers barely had the energy to bow their heads to receive their medal, their knees wobbly

and an exhausted handshake of accomplishment often came next. While winner Aditya Kesarcod-Watson completed the 42.2km run from Monaco to Rabbit Island and back in 2 hours and 39 minutes, for others it was more of a personal journey. Wil Thornalley ran his first half marathon as part of a two man team at just 12-years-old. Wil wanted to run the

leg alongside his Dad, Brett, who had also completed his first marathon at the same age. “I really enjoyed it,” Wil says. “It was what I expected it to be and to do it with Dad was great.” Brett says his son proved to be the one setting the pace out on the course. “I hadn’t done a half marathon for five or six years but thought this was the perfect opportunity. “He (Wil) certainly kept me motivated and I was proud to be able to do it with him and experience it, as not every father gets that opportunity.” Richmond’s Greg Delaney was one of 24 people to complete his first marathon on the day. An experienced trail runner, he admitted to going “to a deep, dark place” late in the event. “To be honest, there was a few times where I thought about giving up,” Greg says. “Your body tells you that you can’t do it. “It feels great to finish but I don’t think I’ll be walking properly for a couple of weeks." More than 200 competitors took part in the event which raised several thousand dollars for the Mental Health Foundation of New Zealand and the Great Taste Trail.

Annette Thompson On the first night of the Jesus heals meetings I went forward for healing. I have been experiencing severe chest pains when exerting myself. I am a builder and pushing a wheelbarrow full of concrete would trigger this pain. It was quite serious, chest grabbing pain and would linger for hours after the physical workout.

Shelley Doherty Today I had a chance to test out the healing I received at the Healing Meeting. I wheelbarrowed concrete for several hours this afternoon. I even ran back pushing the barrow to the truck each time it needed to be replenished. I experienced NO PAIN! All glory to Jesus! “ they will lay hands on the sick and they shall recover”!

On Friday at work I had one of the worse Asthma attacks I have had as an adult. Last night when I walked into the Jesus Heals meeting I still couldn’t breathe properly, could barely talk, and was wheezing. One thing you can’t do in that state is sing - except God. During worship my symptoms started to leave and I was praying God

give me new lungs - restore me, please don’t just fix me up, heal me. After Elder Netsy prayed for me every symptom left. I walked out healed. Better yet my unsaved husband couldn’t believe what had happened - I walked out a mess and came home new!

Div 2 roll on The Waimea Old Boys division two rugby team has continued its charge to the semi-finals with a 40-22 win against Nelson. The attack proved too much to for Nelson to handle and coach Wayne Bateman was delighted to see his team building week on week. Nelson spent the first 15 minutes of the game on attack but the Waimea defence held them out and the visitors had to settle for a penalty. Wayne says the defensive stand

at their home ground of Jubilee Park was a bonus but they expected a tough time in Brightwater against Wanderers this weekend. “They are on the edge of the top four and we are in third, so I expect them to have a similar mindset to us. “We have to keep winning and chasing the four-try bonus points.” The match will start at 1.15pm with the two division one teams meeting at 3pm

More hurt for Waimea against strong Nelson side Jacob Page When you don’t have the player depth there’s not much you can do, according to Waimea Old Boys’ coach Mark Milne. A spirited first half defensive effort against Tasman Trophy winners Nelson was not enough to avoid a 53-3 loss at Jubilee Park on Saturday. Mark offered no excuses but the reality is the depth is not there at present. “We’ve got probably three frontline

senior players at the moment and then half a dozen who have the potential to be good senior players in the future.” For much of the first half, Waimea were in the contest at just 14-3 down. They had chances to score points until turnovers soon saw them back in their own territory. The road does not get any easier as they travel to face high-flying Wanderers this Saturday. “We’ll look to put a plan together to give them a good run,” Mark says.

Trees to be felled on Mapua Drive A large group of tall pines and blue gum trees on Mapua Drive will be felled after an inspection identified them as being a safety risk. The felling, which includes trees lining both sides of Mapua Drive near the exit from State Highway 60, is expected to take three to four weeks and may lead to short traffic delays. Early-morning traffic should not be affected, but people travelling on that route during the day are advised to allow a little extra time, as vehicles will be stopped for short periods while a tree is being felled. After a pine fell on the road in April, other trees in the area were inspected and found to be under stress and at risk of falling. To ensure public safety we therefore have to remove the trees. Anyone with enquiries about the felling can contact the Council by calling Ph. 03 543 8400.
