Leaving home for tourists More Nelsonians are renting out their homes over the summer months to make some extra cash, as demand for more homely accommodation increases. Nelson has about six holiday home management companies and they say people will rent out their own homes over the New Year period for various reasons, but mainly to make some extra money. Auckland-based Bachcare has just announced that it has expanded its management of holiday homes and baches, to Nelson. Bachcare says while holiday homes and baches are the key part of their business nationwide, in Nelson people are more likely to rent out their own home and they can earn some big money for it. “It is a great way for owners to earn more money. Owners can typically expect to earn nearly $10,000 in rental income, just

from renting it during the summer months,” says Bachcare Nelson manager, Victoria Goode. Nelson woman Vairi Hikuroa agrees and says for the past two years her young family have moved out of their small, three-bedroom home in Tahunanui for a few weeks over Christmas. She says they went camping while people were in their home and they made $180 per night. “That money enabled us to be able to go on holiday and have a good time. It was definitely worth it and a good way to take advantage of where we live.” Jarrod Buchanan, owner of Holiday Homes Nelson, says he started his business in 2008

Dad gives Lowe-down on star Mako Anyone who watched Tasman Makos wing, James Lowe, playing in his younger days shouldn’t be surprised that he is the team’s leading try scorer - certainly not his father, Geoff, anyway. James, 23, scored his eighth try of the season in last Saturday’s ITM Cup semi-final against Canterbury to break Liam Squires’ record set last year. Now James is hoping to

and then Waimea Old Boys Red junior teams. “When he started playing rugby in the Stoke under-7 team I said I’d give him a dollar for every try he scored,” Geoff recalls. “I think he got 70 tries that year and so I just said I’d take him to McDonalds instead and he was happy.”

Waimea star hoping to help Makos FROM PAGE 1 James plays down his prolific try-scoring as a junior saying that he played for good teams and “I was just a lot taller and faster than anyone else”. But Geoff reminds him he was also skinny - a far cry from the strapping speedster he is today. “He was always the skinny little kid that ran faster than anyone else, that’s all,” Geoff says. But Geoff can take some of the credit for that blistering speed having passed on some superfast genes to his son. “I was the Motueka High School sprint champion although I had some really good coaches because our PE teachers were Francis Silke, who was
the New Zealand sprint champion, and Trevor Morris, who was an All Black. “I played on the wing like James too until I became a teenager and found beer got too fat and then I played loose forward.” James says he is looking forward to Saturday’s final and adds that he is not surprised the Makos made the final. “If you has asked me at the start of the season if I thought we’d make the final, I would have said ‘yes’. All the boys are playing really well and we have a core of players who have been together for three or more years which is critical. “When we beat Canterbury in the semifinal, we were cool and collected. We aren’t overawed
by these big teams anymore.” James says the team has also responded to the great support they are getting from their fans although unfortunately his No1 supporter, Geoff, won’t be there on Saturday. Geoff insists that’s because all the return flights from New Plymouth to Nelson on Sunday are booked out and he doesn’t want to miss work on Monday. However, James jokes that it may be more do with Geoff ’s fear of flying than being a diligent employee at Eurocell Wood Products. The ITM Cup final between Tasman and Taranaki kicks off in New Plymouth this Saturday night at 7.35pm.

Richmond shopper to win $5000 cash The region’s best shopping perk is back. Shop ‘n Win has been running in Richmond for seven years and sees a local shopper win $5000 cash just in time for Christmas. The retailer that sells the winning ticket also takes home $2000 cash. Waimea Weekly advertising manager, Sue Davies, says the competition continues to grow in popularity each year and this year won’t be any different. “Last year we collected 73,000 entries. That’s pretty amazing and goes to show how popular the competition is and how popular the retailers are that take part in it.” Last year, Stoke woman Raewyn McDowell won the cash and said she was spending it on a great Christmas after her son was flooded out of his home in Arbor Lea Ave in Richmond earlier that year. This year the competition gets even better, with another lucky shopper able to win $2500 worth of Richmond Mall vouchers halfway through the five week promotion. Sue says the added prize has been donated by Richmond Mall which is partnering with Waimea Weekly in this year’s

Greenacres to sell land to pay debt Greenacres Golf Club’s members have given the go ahead to plans to sell 3.2 hectares of their land to a developer for residential sections to help the club reduce debt. Thirty-seven members voted in favour of the motion at a special general meeting held at the Best Island golf course’s clubrooms last Tuesday. Eight voted against the and four abstained. Club president Peter Crins says the club wants to sell the land because it has to “find a way to pay off debt and move for-

sale would benefit the club in the region of $700,000. Although Peter would not name the latest developer, he did say it was a different company and proposal to the $20 million resort village. The new proposal is for a residential development located in the same place but on a slightly bigger area. “The land is on the right-hand side of the road, from just past the motel up to the start of the driving nets.

Clothes line raided Police are investigating complaints from several Stoke residents after they had items stolen from their clothes line over the weekend. Stoke woman, Hazel Trethowen, was on the verge of tears after she had two dresses, a running jacket, underwear and some tops stolen from her clothes line on Saturday. It wasn’t until Sunday morning that she noticed the gaps on her line, and contacted the Police on Monday to report the stolen clothes. “Not everything had been taken though, just the good stuff,” says Hazel. “I nearly cried. I had tears in my eyes because it’s one of my favourite dresses, I got it with Christmas money from my grandparents last

year and I’ve probably worn it about four times, because it’s quite a special dress. I really love it and I can’t afford to replace it,” she says. Her neighbours also suffered thefts from their washing lines, one of them now missing a pair of Levi jeans, some towels and work boots. Hazel’s property in Stoke has never been targeted before but she has been through a washing line raid at her previous residence in Atawhai. “I’m really gutted; I thought it was a really safe little street.” Police say because her property was fenced, the crime is classed as burglary as opposed to theft and it is possible finger prints could be taken from where the thief climbed over.

“The Fuse” and “The Iron Duke” were amongst the underwater robots entered in this year’s Ministry for Inspiration’s New Zealand Aquabots Challenge held at the Waimea College pool on Saturday. Six intermediate and secondary schools entered teams and competed in an obstacle course, salvage race and heist, along with a presentation on their underwater vehicles. All teams were asked to design and construct a robot that could function underwater and could only move under its own power. The creations were made of the parts and components provided in the NZ Aquabot kit along with a team budget of thirty dollars to modify their creations. The robots had to move through an underwater obstacle course, retrieve rings off the bottom of the pool and manipulate a latch to open a door to lift as many weighted containers as possible in the allotted time.

A panel of external judges from industry, government agencies and education sectors evaluated each challenge and
awarded place prizes. The overall winner was Team Circuit Breakers, a combined team from Garin College and Nelson College for Girls, with Motueka High School Salamanders in second place and Iron Duke Sea Scouts third. In only its second year, Jay Inman, organiser of the Aquabots Challenge, says that the calibre of entries had been of a very high standard.

Singing Jim can’t wait for concert
Richmond’s Jim Frater will sing anywhere, anytime. In fact, the self confessed “wannabe rock star” enjoys singing so much that sometimes he doesn’t even realise he’s doing it which he admits can be a bit embarrassing. “You know that mood music they play in the supermarkets?” he asks. “Well, I’ll even start singing along to that. “My wife gets so embarrassed she’ll just walk off and leave me with the shopping cart. I used to embarrass my kids by singing everywhere too but I can’t help it.” But this Saturday, Jim will be able to sing his heart out without anyone cringing or running for cover when he joins some like-minded men in the New Zealand Male Choir’s concert at the Old St John’s Hall in Nelson. The 50-strong choir endeavours to perform one concert a year and this time they have chosen Nelson, where the choir was founded in 2000, to “choose a national men’s choir to attend a festival in the UK”. Although the choir only performs once a year, Jim says its members get plenty of practise with the North and South Island contingents meeting separately once a month for rehearsals. The choir has only had one concert in Nelson before, that was in 2010 to celebrate its 10th birthday. The Nelson-Tasman region will be well represented in Saturday’s concert with Rob Ord, Patrick Day and Murray Marshall also singing in the New Zealand Male Choir. The concert will also feature the Nelson Male Voice Choir and a guest performance by Nelson College singer David de Theirry. The concert, titled From Land to Sea, starts this Saturday in the Old St John’s Hall at 320 Hardy Street at 7.30pm. Tickets, which cost $25 for adults and $15 for students with under12s free, are available from TicketDirect on 5483840 or online at ticketdirect.co.nz

Richmond couple, Jeff and Mary Saxton, will be exhibiting a piece of their family and Nelson’s history when the Nelson Miniatures Club hosts the New Zealand Association of Miniature Enthusiasts convention at Waimea College this Labour Weekend. Mary and Jeff have been painstakingly making a one-twelfth scale model of their family’s ancestral home, Oaklands, situated at the top of Saxton Road in Stoke. Jeff ’s great, great grandfather, John Waring Saxton, built the home in November 1842 and for the last six years Jeff and Mary have been recreating a miniature version of Oaklands complete with family portraits on the wall. “It’s taken a long time, it’s such a big place,” Jeff says. “He had something like nine kids so it had to be a big house. “The family still had the original floor plans for the house so we’ve used those to build the miniature version. My family are also great hoarders so we have been able to see some of the original furniture and make that as well” Although miniature enthusiasts can purchase a wide range of items for building models, Mary says they like to make their own building materials, household furniture, drapes and fittings. She says Jeff made the slate roof out of cardboard and individual weatherboards out of wood while

she focused her attention on the furnishings - there are even family portraits on the wall with small, printed versions of the original paintings. Mary says there are still a lot of rooms to finish decorating and furnishing and, based on their first big project, she expects it to take at least another two or three years. “The first one we did was a big Georgian house and that took 12 years. I don’t know if we’ll ever live long enough to fill this one up,” she says. President Nelson Miniatures Club, Jeanette Dungan says the convention will also features a number of other miniatures including Hogwart’s Castle and the “most exquisite doll’s house accessories” made by Moutere’s Kim Lineham. There will be a raffles and children’s competitions and 40 traders selling “anything miniaturist”. Jeanette says around 200 people have registered for the weekend, including 23 from Australia, one from US and three from the UK. The miniature displays will be open to the public in the Waimea College Hall on Saturday, Sunday and Monday from 10am to 4pm. Tickets cost $6 for adults, $5 for seniors and $2 for children.

Helping break the barriers to reading Children’s Librarian, Lucy Brunwin believes that it isn’t a matter of kids not being interested in reading, it is that some kids just haven’t read the books they are interested in as yet. The ‘Cos reading sucks, Mum!’ seminar was developed to help break the barriers to reading after Lucy was regularly receiving queries from parents asking for more information on how to get their child to read. The seminar will focus on providing parents of primary and intermediate aged children with a range of library resources, including books, audio books and magazines, as well as, electronic resources. “We will talk about a range of things, not just books in the traditional sense. We would
like to connect families with library resources and teach parents how to access them, for example, show them how to search a catalogue, as it is sometimes hard to know what to look for,” Lucy says. The library has already received bookings to the seminar and will be asking parents what sorts of things their child is interested in and teaching them how to utilise the resources available. “Some children are sick of stuff they see at school and need to try new things to keep them interested,” says Lucy. The ‘Cos reading sucks, Mum!’ free seminar will be held at Richmond Library on Wednesday, October 22 from 7.30pm to 8.30pm.

Cynthia Martin... You can give her a hard time about being the Queen of Rural, how she occasionally gets her phone number mixed up, and just how many pairs of gumboots does she own? BUT Don’t ever give her a hard time about selling properties because she knows her stuff.
St John fundraiser a success: Thanks Waimea Weekly for your great articles and photo in the lead up to and following the St John Duck Race. Despite conditions, it was a fun and worthwhile event, raising $7000 for St John in Nelson. We appreciate your support. Kind regards, Sarah McCabe, St John area executive officer.

Menzshed in Nelson: Why does Nelson not have a Menzshed? Kaikoura, Blenheim, Picton, Renwick, Havelock, Waimea, Tapawera and Motueka have one. Wakefield and Takaka are starting one soon. There are over 1000 in Aussie and 40 throughout NZ. Menzsheds provide a place for blokes to get together and build things for the community and themselves, they are a place where practical skills that are being lost to the community can be learnt and, most importantly, a place to connect and communicate. A place for young men to learn not only skills with machinery but life skills as well in a supportive environment and these skills will add value to the community. Menzshed Whakatu Inc has a committee, members, enough donated machinery for two workshops, tools and wood, but it has no shed. Menzshed Whakatu would like to ask the community for any offers, suggestions or recommendations for a shed in Nelson. Graeme O’Brien.

Locals win national art comp In its second year as a national competition, the Impressions Art Awards has seen an increase in the number of entries from outside the Nelson-Tasman region and two of the seven winners coming from Nelson. The selection process is now more rigorous and all works selected by the panel have reached a higher standard of technical and creative excellence than seen in previous years. This year’s winners were; Claudia Recorean, for her work “Happy Promises II”, Impressions Supreme Award and Arts Council Nelson Contemporary Award, Ruth Vaega for her work “Fishing Story”, Icon Gallery Merit Award, Claire Te Au for her work “Peonies and the pasture” Jill Vollmer Make Me Smile Award, Geoff Noble for his work “Astrid”, Lisa Grennell Top of the South Award, Joanna Dudson-Scott for her work “Tectonic Slip”, Golden Acrylics Golden Highlight Award and Amanda Sears for her work “Writings on a wall”, Refinery Artspace Arts Student Award. Principal sponsors Glenys and Lewis Della Bosca of Impressions Studio in Richmond have been involved in the awards since their conception in 2006. With four new sponsors on board, the prize pool has now increased to over $5,000 in value. “Artists look at these type of awards as a stepping stone into a full-time career in art, the ultimate aim of the awards is to provide opportunities to artists not usually available locally,” says Glenys. For most artists the first level of achievement is to be selected into the awards, with almost half of those entries then being selected into the finals and the best of the best artworks on display. “When a customer purchases an artwork, it is not only because they like the look of it, they are also purchasing it because they like the story behind the artwork, they look at the background of the artist and whether they have won any awards,” says Glenys.

The colourful sights and sounds of roller derby came to Tahunanui skating rink on Saturday night when the Nelson Bays Sirens of Smash Allsorts team took on Otautahi Roller Derby League. The Sirens of Smash Allsorts, pictured right, fielded a mixed team of novice and experienced skaters, which allowed the newer recruits the opportunity to show their skills. The Nelson side claimed victory with a 301-99 win over the Otautahi team. The team, mainly made up of working mums, trains twice a week for two hours and is in a rebuilding phase. They are always looking for keen people to join and say no experience is necessary and age is no barrier.

Raeward Fresh has produced the best premium pork sausage in the country. Last week, the Richmond fresh vegetable and meat business won a gold medal at the Devro New Zealand Sausage Competition, one of only two in the traditional pork section and one of only 22 gold medals across the country. Nelson’s New World also won gold for its boerewors sausage in the continental fresh category. There were more than 400 entries to the awards, which were judged by a panel of culinarytrained chefs, butchers and food writers. Raeward Fresh owner Justin Blackler says the win was great recognition of the quality meat they’re providing. “It’s the first time we’ve entered the awards but people kept telling us how great our sausages are, so we thought we’d test it in front of a trained palate.” The premium pork sausage is made from 100 per cent freedom pork and was made by butchery manager Josh Flavell. Justin says his team are thrilled with the result and will enter again next year. “We thought we could go ok and medal,

Property insights What’s happening in the market place? It would appear that there is no consistency to the real estate market any more. We always said that springtime brought lots of new listings, that no one purchased property over the holiday time, long weekends were great times to hold open homes and everyone looked at the Property Press for property. None of that is consistent in today’s market. Hot buyers are scanning the websites or have buyer alerts set up to be notified the moment a new listing is available. Weather conditions have changed dramatically and spring can arrive in the middle of the winter months. Cash buyers will not wait for open homes, they want to look at a new listing the moment it is available and if you want to browse the Property Press then you have to pick it up.

Editorial: Dam needed but funding model unfair There is no doubt that the Waimea Community Dam is critical to the future of the Tasman district. Water resources on the Waimea Plains are already over-allocated and that shortage will only get worse as our population continues to grow. The district has faced water restrictions nearly every summer since 2001 and it’s only been a few timely rainfalls that have allowed us to avert a serious water shortage. A report to the Nelson Regional Economic Development Agency estimated that a 70 per cent cut in total water allocations during a one in 10 year drought would reduce the irrigable area from 3800 hectares to 705 hectares costing the region around $17.5 million a year. In contrast, building the dam will increase the irrigable land from 3800 hectares to 5600 hectares resulting in an increase in the region’s GDP of $66.5 million. Do the maths. And it’s not just the big water users that need the dam - we will all suffer either directly or indirectly if the aquifers that provide our water run dry. If you live in Richmond and think that the worst thing that can happen when it gets dry is that you won’t be able to wash your car, then think again. It’s far more serious than that. Jobs will be lost because the district’s big water users are also some of the biggest employers. Growth will also come to a standstill because there will be no water for new residential subdivisions or industries - these are the places where our children hope to live and work. Tasman district mayor Richard Kempthorne is right when he says the consequences of not building a dam are far worse than the $74.6million cost of building one. But where Richard and his council have got it wrong is the way they plan to fund the project because it seriously disadvantages some land owners.
WHO HAS THE X-FACTOR? The television show X-Factor visited Nelson on Sunday, and hundreds of hopefuls turned up to show the judges their stuff. The show selects the best entrants for the finals, but parts of the heats are also televised. The Nelson auditions were held at Nelson College.

Senior reporter Reporter
simon@waimeaweekly.co.nz A story in last week’s edition of the Waimea Weekly highlighted the plight of one of those land owners, Hugh Challies, who will have to pay an extra $59,000 to $86,000 in rates to fund the dam when he doesn’t even need the extra water. Life style block owners, Trevor Palmer and Cathy Hughson, also featured in that story because they will have to pay an extra $5800 to $9800 in rates, again for water they don’t need. These landowners are not alone. Many of the Waimea Plains 500 to 600 irrigators are facing the same predicament under the council’s funding models. The council has said that these landowners need to intensify their land use to pay for the extra rates or lease their land to someone who will but that is not a fair solution. A large proportion of Hugh’s land cannot be intensified because it is low-lying wetland while Cathy and Trev don’t have the time to intensify because they are working at their day jobs. Leasing their land is not a fair option either. They purchased it because they wanted to be lifestyle farmers not landlords. The only realistic solution, under the council’s proposal, is for them to sell their land because they won’t be able to afford the rates. No doubt Hugh, Trev and Cathy and will express their concerns about the unfairness of the proposed funding models during the public consultation process. Let’s hope the council takes heed of its former slogan, “It’s the Lifestyle that Counts”, and listens to their concerns and comes up with an alternative funding model.

Just a thought... When is a candle a candle? Is it when it is finished being made or is a candle not a candle until it is lit? I ask this because a few weeks ago when staying with friends, they had lovely a collection of candles. There were various shapes and colours, some were free standing, some set in vases, some in bowls. This got me wondering ‘when is a candle a candle?’ The lovely ornamental candles looked nice, some looked very sophisticated set in glass bowls upon small polished stones, but would these candles be reached for in a power outage? They were not so much candles as much as they
were ornaments. Years ago I was given a beautiful set of ornamental candles – five large candles in a large bowl set on stones. One evening I lit them and they looked great for a few minutes but then their flames came together creating a lot of heat. They ended up melting each other ruining their shape with various splotches of black soot messing up their appearance. They were no longer a nice ornamental display and obviously were never intended to be lit. This suggests ornamental candles are not really candles but are in fact ornaments.
To my friends who attend church. When is a church a church and when is a church an ornament? When is a church doing what God intended and when is it just standing there as an ornament lookJohn Parks, St David’s Church ing “nice” but not being church? Jesus Christ said “Your love for one another
will prove to the world that you are my disciples” (John 13:35 NLT). He also said “You are the light of the world. A town built on a hill cannot be hidden. Neither do people light a lamp and put it under a bowl. Instead they put it on its stand, and it gives light to everyone in the house. In the same way, let your light shine before others, that they may see your good deeds and glorify your Father in heaven.” (Matthew 5: 14–16 NIV). Love is the difference between being an ornament and being the real thing. May your church shine brightly with Christ’s love.

The Richmond Police continue to work hard around our community, looking after the people and businesses that call the town home with friendly local staff that know the area, know the people and are dedicated to our little part of the world. Working closely with Murchison, Blenheim, Buller and Nelson, and with an officer based at the Wakefield police sta-
tion, Richmond Police play a big part in keeping the top of the South safe. Rural communities like Wakefield and Murchison benefit from a more personal police presence in their areas and for the police officers, being a jack of all trades is important when it comes to dealing with all manner of situations on their own “That’s the main thing I enjoy about rural polic-

Usually once they get to know you and you build up that trust level, they feel comfortable coming to you with most problems and you get that job satisfaction of being able to see the results of what you’re doing,” says Murchison Senior Constable Willie
Squires. Overall, rural policing is a job many of the officers enjoy because of the close connections they are able to develop within their area. “It’s the people in the community that makes the job enjoyable, and just being out there in a rural area. Some of the places you go are rural and remote and you’re working by yourself which is great, so there’s no real hardship out there, it’s a pretty cool place to work,” says Wakefield’s Senior Constable Marty Tutton.

CUS ON WAKEFIELD With plans to develop the village green, including additional bike racks for people coming into the village and a new wheel park for the young scooter and skateboard enthusiasts, the village is moving in a great direction for the future. The group is also looking forward to holding a public event to commemorate the completion of the Wakefield section of the
Megan Riddell, Miriam Clark, Pauline Ensor, Debbie Brooks, Anne Malham and Belinda Plange at the grand opening of their craft cooperative venture, The Treasure Box.
Treasure Trove of Gift Ideas
The Treasure Box is now open in Wakefield and thanks to a cooperative of 22 different local artists, is full of great gifts to give friends and family, or even just a treat for yourself. All of the stock is unique and individually hand crafted to the highest quality by these local artists who originally joined up last year, operating a store opposite the Wakefield garage that was closed in February this year. Several of the members decided they wanted to continue their craft co-op and thanks to the Wakefield Villa Tearooms, have found the perfect spot to run their shop. While the term craft cooperative may conjure up images of tea cosies and the like, The Treasure Box offers its customers a range of diverse and contemporary crafts at an affordable price. Starting from scratch after the closure of the first venture, The Treasure Box is now full of wonderful creations, from natural skin care products, a variety of jewellery styles, pottery and decoupage to children’s clothing, up-cycled furniture, bags
and candles, and with Christmas on its way, plenty of beautiful decorations. Come and have a look at their stunning collection of crafts, you’ll find The Treasure Box at 14 Whitby Way in Wakefield. They are open daily from 10am to 4pm excluding Mondays, until the end of February, or if you have any enquiries, direct them to the groups Facebook page at www. facebook.com/TreasureBoxCollective. Focus Wakefield Focus Wakefield is a sub-committee of the Wakefield Community Council and is an initiative of local people, dedicated to making positive changes in the Wakefield community. Spurred into action by the introduction of the Tasman Great Taste Trail to their village, and other ideas contributed by the public at a community meeting, the Focus Wakefield group are concentrating on a beautification project to make the village a welcoming and enjoyable place for residents as well as those visiting.

Walk with us puts shoes on kids For eight Stoke School children, receiving new shoes is allowing them to take a new step into the world of sports. The Walk With Us charity has provided eight Stoke kids with new footwear much to the delight of their parents. Stoke School principal, Peter Mitchener, says these kids have always been on the peripheral of sport and may not have been able to participate because they didn’t have the right equipment. “They are at the age now where they want to play sport and this has taken the weight off parent’s shoulders and definitely helped make these kids feel comfortable to try new sports”. The Walk With Us charity is a nonprofit organisation whose mission is to provide free school and sports footwear and socks to children in need aged between five and 13 years in the Nelson-Tasman region. “It has been great to see the absolute joy and relief on the parents and children’s faces when they receive their new shoes,” says Pete. “We recently had an incident where a student left their shoes outside the classroom and one shoe went missing, his family couldn’t afford to buy new shoes, so it was great to be able to help
Monique Bergman Reporter
monique@waimeaweekly.co.nz this family out by providing a replacement pair.” The Walk With Us charity currently provides footwear to seven schools within the Nelson-Tasman area, however they are hoping to increase this to around 20 local schools in the future. Last year their charity auction raised $15,000 for the children and they are hoping to raise the same amount this year. This year’s auction has some fantastic prizes on offer from ASB Aquatic Centre gym memberships, Fresh Choice Richmond and Richmond Mall vouchers to holiday baches, Harley motorbike rides and a fishing charter donated by D’Urville Island Water Taxis and Charters. The Walk With Us fundraising auction will be held at 6.30pm on Tuesday October 28 at the Waimea Old Boys Club Rooms, Richmond. Tickets are available from Haven Realty, 8 McGlashen Ave, Richmond and the ticket cost of $10 includes a supper.

Hello Everyone I hope that you all have seen the new radar speed warning sign recently erected on Waimea West Road, alongside Snowdens Bush. Now that there is more activity on our roads, from not only cars and trucks, but also from cyclists and pedestrians over the summer period, I think it is a timely reminder to all of us to keep vehicle speeds down. At our last meeting we had an interesting talk about crime in our district. Although the crime rate is low, there is much we can do to keep it that way, especially

by locking all doors when going away and keeping vehicles secure at all times. We also received confirmation that the Wakefield Police station will remain open with a staff of two, which is really good news. There is also a lot of rural crime happening and it should always be reported in order to catch the culprits eventually. We wish to thank Senior Constable Marty Tutton, for coming along to speak with us. Due to the Tasman District Council holding an evening public meeting about the Waimea Community Dam on Monday 3 November at the Brightwater School Hall, the monthly meeting of the Brightwater Community Association will be delayed. It will now be held on Monday 10 November at the Brightwater School Staffroom commencing at 7.30pm. All residents are welcome. Andy McQueen, Chairperson, Brightwater Community Association. Brightwater Fire Open Day When the fire siren rings out, you can rest assured that the Brightwater Volunteer Rural Fire Force will be on their way. Having at-
• Over 40 years experience
tended over 90 call outs last year, the force will be holding an open day to show the community who they are and what they do. Three different fire trucks will be on display at the open day plus plenty of activities for the children including a monsoon bucket demonstration, giveaways and the Disney Planes: Fire & Rescue movie playing throughout the day. There will also be information on Waimea initiatives in rural areas, fire permits and ways on how to be fire smart. The Brightwater group has around 15 active members and attends vegetation and structure fires as well as medical emergencies within the Tasman district. It is part of the National Rural Fire Authority and involves not only a commitment to attending call outs, but also fortnightly training sessions to NZQA standards. The Brightwater Volunteer Fire Force open day will be held on Saturday November 8, from 11am to 2.30pm at Spencer Place, Brightwater. The force is looking for new recruits aged between 16 and 65, so if you are interested, go along to the open day and see what it is all about.

Brightwater Community News
Tessa, Brooklyn, Nicola and Ella lead Brightwater School pupils at the Masked Parade. Wanderers Sports Club looking for volunteers Wanderers Sports Club has grown substantially over the years and continues to do so. An integral part of any successful community organisation is the band of volunteers who help to keep it running. Wanderers have been lucky to have had a wonderful band of people helping out, and they need to boost their volunteer numbers to ensure that it continues to offer its services to existing members and the people of Brightwater. A volunteer is someone who gives freely of their time, energy and skills to contribute to the community. Everybody needs them, regardless of code; they are the life blood of the sport. Without willing volunteers, sports in clubs and schools would fail to function effectively. People volunteer because they have a passion for sport, and to gain new friends and enrich their social life. They support family members and local Clubs in the community. They share talents, abilities, ideas and enthusiasm. They enjoy a team environment and watching the development of players. Volunteers are often overlooked in the running of a Sports Club, while the teams and players often take priority. We are often guilty of not asking for help, while there are a pool of people on the fringes of the Club scene who, if approached, will be happy to help.
Wanderers need you; the community, parents and players, to become involved as committee, coaches, and event co-ordinators, grounds men, fundraisers, volunteer co-ordinators and any other job description that keeps a voluntary organisation going. Are you willing to become involved and do you have some expertise that could be put to good use around the Club? Remember, sport needs volunteers more than volunteers need sport. Wanderers Sports Club Rugby 7’ S - We will be entering a men’s team in the Rugby 7’s at Sports Park, Motueka on Saturday 15 November.

SPORT College’s top athletes honoured at sports awards www.shuttersport.co.nz
The passion of an enthusiastic group of coaches and the dedication of their young athletes has produced another top sporting year for Waimea College with 25 caps being presented to students at the college’s annual sports prizegiving. Rower, Sean Ducray, hockey player, Guy Strawbridge, and multi-talented basketball, netball and volleyball players Gracie Roberts and Lucy Ingham received the top awards at last Wednesday’s prizegiving. They were also among the athletes who received one or more of the 25 caps presented for winning national titles or representing New Zealand. “We can’t thank all the teachers and parents enough,” school sports coordinator Daniel Hobbs says. “The amount of time they put into coaching is incredible. “We had a very good sporting year last year and this year is even better. We had seven finalists in the Team of the Year and three were New Zealand champions and three were South Island champions while the other one was second in the South Island. “That’s a real credit to the coaches and the dedication of the students. All we do as a school is provide them with the support and opportunities and they have

Sean says the highlight of his sporting year was winning bronze in the men’s quad scull at the world junior rowing championships in Germany. “It was pretty cool to be in that environment,” Sean says. “There were no easy race. A final in the nationals here would be comparable to a heat or quarter final at the worlds - it was so intense.” Sean says he intends to continue rowing when he studies business papers at Otago University next year. Gracie, who was a member of the school’s champion basketball, volleyball and netball sides says she will be concentrating on basketball next year when she hopes to se-

She says her sporting highlight was travelling to China with the Junior Tall Ferns. Lucy, who also played for the school’s top volleyball, netball and basketball teams, says she will be focusing on her studies at
Canterbury next year although will continue playing netball. Guy, who plans to study physical education at Canterbury next year, says finishing third with the Capital under-18 team at the national champs was his highlight.
Local lads on trial All the Nonstop supporters wish the Oliver Clan well with the up-coming New Zealand MTF Moto Trials Championship, to be held over Labour weekend in the Top of the South. The Oliver clan have all been riding some form of two-wheeled contraption from an early age, and this becomes very apparent on most weekends when you see them all riding together, having fun at what they most enjoy. The three sons of Stephen Oliver, Andrew, Nick and Peter, have ridden Moto trials bikes for many years and have become very accomplished at this form of racing. All three have Junior NZ Championship and Oceanic titles to their credit; taking after their father who has multiple NZ National titles, along with many Enduro and MX championship achievements over the last four decades. In recent years, the NonStop “Team Xtreme” has been travelling the country, entertaining the crowds under the Goldpine banner, performing at such events as the Mystery Creek Field Days, CRC Speed Show, Toys for Boys and the likes. “This has been a great experience and character building
Members of the NonStop Adventure team from left, Nick, Stephen, Andy and Peter Oliver with their bikes, ahead of the NZ MTF Moto Trials Champs this weekend. for the boys”, says their father. The Olivers are also well known in Japan, where they have been guest riders in the Idemitsu Ihatove Trial on several occasions and have made many Japanese friends over the last decade. This event emphasises having fun and taking part, rather than gaining a title. It is the largest trials event
in the world. Stephen and his family were so sold on the concept they have adopted a similar format and, since 2010, run the NZ Ihatove Adventure Trial here in Nelson every February. As long-time supporters of the sport, the family decided 2014 was the time to re-join competitions here in New Zealand and it appears that they still
have what it takes. Father, Stephen, has just taken out this year’s masters South Island Championship, while Nick won the Pro class and younger brother Peter had a convincing win in the A grade. This Labour weekend sees the Nelson Motorcycle Club hosting the NZ MTF Moto Trials Championship throughout the three days. Local members Patrick Dillon, Daniel Clarke, Dylan Cox, Karl Clarke, Craig Wassell, Peter Oliver, Nick Oliver, Andrew Oliver and Stephen Oliver, are all strong contenders for podium finishes; however, they will have to work hard as there are many internationallyexperienced riders including the reigning NZ and Australian champion Jake Whittaker, along with UK and World Motor Trial rider Jack Sheppard and other riders from the North Island, keen to stamp their mark. NonStop Adventure and their supporters would like to wish our local lads all the best for a successful and fun-filled weekend.

Proud to support Stihl Shop Richmond
Stihl Shop Richmond is one of our true local success stories. In their first year of operation they were acknowledged nationally as the Most Improved Stihl Franchise. Part of this success is contributed to their dedication to their customers and providing what they want. So when customers and local boat owners made it known to manager, Grant Blanchet, that they wanted someone local to provide top quality boat and marine servicing, Grant went ahead and organised it. This month sees the opening of the new Stihl Shop Boat Servicing Workshop. Cameron Williams is in charge of the new operation and, being a factory trained Yamaha and Mercury qualified technician and well skilled on all brands, with 12 years of local experience, he’s just the man for the job. Cameron can take care of everything

These days she plays “crafty” shots and makes sure she hits the ball in the right place so she doesn’t have to do so much running. Antonia, who is ranked No2 in her age group nationally, says she had been practising everyday on her school trip to Teapot Valley and really enjoyed her game against Jean.

There may have been a 71 years between tennis players, Jean Walker of Nelson and Kapiti’s Antonia Lawson, but there was nothing between on the scoreboard them when they took to the court for a friendly game at Teapot Valley Christian Camp last week. Antonia was staying at the camp on a school trip with Raumati Primary last week. When Teapot Valley manager, Christine Glass, found out Antonia is a nationally-ranked junior, she contacted her friend Jean, 83, to arrange a game of tennis. Jean and Antonia’s father, Lane, teamed up against Antonia and one of her schoolmates, Samuel Kingi, for a thrilling three-setter and Lane says he was astounded at Jean’s speed and skill. Antonia and Samuel won the match in a tiebreak 6-2, 5-7, 11-9. “She can really hit the ball,” Lane says. “I thought she might be a little slow but she is really, really good.” However, Lane and Antonia shouldn’t have been surprised because Jean is one of the country’s top masters players, winning gold in the M70+ doubles, with Trish Wehner, and mixed doubles with Max Bellis, at the South Island Masters Games in Nelson in 2011. She also won silver in the doubles with Fay Rangi at the nationals in Nelson earlier this year. “I started playing when I left Southland Girls High School haven’t really stopped,” Jean says. “I played when we lived in Australia and now I still play regularly for the Tasman Tennis Club as well as for Tahunanui and Hope veterans. “When I started we all wore white skirts and frilly white panties and had wooden racquets with gut strings. Now the player’s skirts have got shorter and shorter and some of the girls grunt

WEDNESDAY 22 October 2014
Student wins first round of mountainbike series Henry Jaine and Ingrid Richter had a good hit out for this Sunday’s Milk and Honey race in Golden Bay when they won the opening round of the Nelson Mountainbike Club’s cross-country series in the Richmond Hills. Henry blitzed the field in last Sunday’s race that started in Easby Park in Richmond and climbed up the Escalator Track before bombing back down through Lodestone Gully and Bermed Monster. The Waimea College student completed four laps of the demanding single track course in a fast one hour 15 minutes to finish 13 minutes ahead of Masters 1 winner Dean Fulton. Ingrid was just as impressive completing three laps in 1hr 11min 48sec to hold off Susie Wood (1hr 16min 16sec) and Caitlin Holmes (1hr 20min 28sec). Brenda Clapp showed she is back on track after a problematic leg injury by winning the Masters 2 group ahead of Jacqui Nathan. It was a good season-opener for both Henry and Ingrid who are training for the national series early next year. “I’ll do the Milk and Honey next weekend and then after that I’ll be getting ready for nationals,” Henry says. “I’m going to be racing in the under-23s this season so
I’ll be up against guys like (Commonwealth Games silver medallist) Sam Gaze - it’s going to be a big step up.” The Milk and Honey starts with a road 36km ride from Takaka to the top of the Takaka Hill followed by a 28km mountainbike ride through Canaan Downs and down the Rameka Track and back to Takaka. Two of Nelson’s promising young riders, Cameron Jones and Ben Alloway, won their respective under-15 and under-17 races with Zoe Nathan winning the under-15 girls. Jake Glover edged out David Ayre in the senior men’s race with Dean Fulton holding off multisport athlete Dan Busch in the Master 1 group. Jake Stow won the Masters 2 race while Cliff Bowman won Masters 3. Race organiser, Wayne Pool says the 43 riders found the climbs challenging but the reward was “an exciting rollercoaster downhill back to the start of the next lap”. He says the course around some of Richmond’s newest tracks was in perfect condition for racing with overnight rain laying the dust and improving traction. The second round of the four-race series will be held at the Kaiteriteri Mountainbike Park on Sunday, November 9.
