For the first time ever, our two top rugby teams will play each other in the final of the region’s top club rugby competition.

Taylor’s Contracting Wanderers – the pride of Brightwater and Wakefield – will meet Star & Garter Waimea Old Boys, the Richmond-based rugby powerhouse, at Trafalgar Park this Saturday.

The game is shaping up to be the biggest

local rugby game the Waimea region has ever seen and the clubs and players are encouraging their fans to support the teams in huge numbers.

Waimea president Duane Whiting says several bus loads of supporters will be driven to the ground from Jubilee Park and he hopes for “several hundred” red and white clad fans.

Wanderers have the chance to win their first senior rugby title since the 1955 and club manager Diane Drogemuller says that’s not lost on the club with supporters encouraged to dress in blue and gold and bring their voices. “It’s a huge game for our club and for our community. Most of us have never seen Wanderers win a senior final. Let’s hope we can all say we have this

time next week.”

Waimea last won a title in 2002 when the likes of Mark Milne, Dion Mytton and Graham Ching were all still running around, and the side’s current captain James Lowe says Waimea aren’t there to finish second.

Free Wi-Fi goes live

Free Wi-Fi has officially been launched in the Richmond CBD, meaning members of the public can now access the internet right at their finger tips while doing their shopping.

Three hotspots will cover most of Queen St, the final one being located near the eastern side of the Richmond Mall car park.

It is able to be accessed on laptops, tablets and smart phones by clicking on the freespot network. There are no download limit restrictions, although users can only access it for an hour each day.

Kevin Gear, of Richmond Unlimited who are behind the project, says the free wireless internet is aimed at visitors and residents. “When they’re in the town they can find various businesses that they are looking on the net for without any hassles,” says Kevin.

He also believed the free wireless will draw people into Richmond.

While the first initial stage gives coverage along Queen St and in Sundial Square, the next stage will be getting free wireless internet throughout the Richmond Mall.

Ian Kearney, chairman of Network Tasman who granted access to their fibre network and provided cabling, says it will boost the development of Richmond. “You go to just about any modern city in the world these days and they’ve got free Wi-Fi,” he says. “It’s almost a requirement of a modern city or urban area and it’s because communications are changing all around the world and high capacity Wi-Fi is now standard.”

Justin Wells of thepacific.net, the company operating the project, was interested in feedback from users about future locations. “It’s up the public and business owners to say they want coverage here. If there are any problems they can come talk to us and hopefully we can sort out some issues.”

NEWS in brief

HEALTH BOARD NOMINATIONS: Nominations for District Health Board elections opened on Friday and close at noon on August 16. Nelson Marlborough District Health Board (NMDHB) elections are for seven positions, elected by residents of Marlborough, Nelson and Tasman. Following the election, the Minister of Health may appoint a further four members, making a total of 11 members of the board.

PARTY’S OVER FOR MAITAI TEENS: Authorities say they will clamp down on underage drinking at the Maitai Youth Camp this summer after years of it being “overlooked” and teens that have already booked but don’t like the new policy can have their money back.

Nelson City Council last week moved to “reduce the risks” at the camp, which has become a New Year event site for out of town youth, particularly year twelve and thirteen school students from Christchurch. There were 1037 campers present for New Year’s Eve 2012, most of whom were under 18 years of age. In the past, underage drinking has been overlooked but councillor Pete Rainey says the level of alcohol consumption has been increasingly causing concern.

Four bedroom rentals in short supply Phillip Rollo Reporter

editorial@waimeaweekly.co.nz A shortage of four bedroom rental properties on the market across the district means some families have to make do with smaller homes.

Summit Real Estate property manager Sam Burling says she has seven different families currently on the look out for a four bedroom property in Richmond but there isn’t a single one available. “There’s just nothing around. They’re very hard to come by at a good price,” says Sam. “To have six or seven looking for a four bedroom place is crazy.”

Sam lists a number of reasons why four bedroom houses are not available to rent; most have long term tenants, they are expensive, and they are generally more suited to the owner who will live in it with their family. “We get a lot of people ask for a four bedroom place but they end up settling for a three. For a four bedroom place you’re looking at $450 and above per week and quite often families can’t afford those, so the people who are in them don’t move.”

When Caren Kroupa moved into a four bedroom house in Tahunanui last month, she thought the countless hours searching for a rental property online were over.

But the mother of three is already back on the rental hunt, given 42 days notice to move out just four weeks after relocating from Richmond, because the owner

While the landlord is well within their rights to move back into the house, as long as they have given the minimum 42 days notice, Caren was left fuming, believing the owner was after a long term tenant and did not know he had his other property on the market.

“If I had known his place was on the market I wouldn’t have gone for this house and I think it’s unfair,” says the qualified early childhood teacher, who says she signed a fixed term contract.

“Having three kids that I’ve got to up and move again and find another bond, it’s quite stressful. The only reason I got

The i20

it was because it was long term and suited my needs. I had been looking for six months.”

But Caren, who was previously living in Richmond in a smaller house, is worried that a lack of four bedroom rental properties on the market could leave her homeless once the 42 days are up. “Time is ticking.”

But Sam says the shortage of four bedroom rentals has been ongoing since the Christchurch earthquake.

“Families are getting bigger so the shortage is amazing. We just don’t have any available and winter is harder because no one moves.”

Police target rural drivers

Rural drink drivers were the target of police on Friday and Saturday night.

A combined operation involving 22 police officers from Nelson took part in Operation ZERO, an operation aimed at targeting rural drink drivers in the Nelson Bays area.

Officers patrolled the townships of Murchison, Tapawera, Wakefield, Brightwater, Moutere, Mapua, Motueka, Riwaka, Golden Bay and Rai Valley, as well as the roads linking these settlements.

Constable Darren Bryce, who was the officer in charge of the operation, says the

idea behind it was to saturate the rural roads with police patrols, and where possible stop every vehicle and check for alcohol consumption. The aim was to have zero drunk drivers on the road. “We want the public to realise they can be stopped anywhere at anytime, even on quiet country roads. It also reassures the drivers who are stopped that police are doing their best to keep the roads safe and free of drunk drivers,” says Darren.

As a result of the operation 1072 vehicles where stopped and their drivers breath tested. Of those, 81 had been consuming

Quake felt in Tasman

Three earthquakes that caused minor damage in Wellington and Marlborough were felt right across the Nelson-Tasman region over the weekend, and Civil Defence is urging residents to be prepared for an even bigger one.

Nelson Tasman Civil Defence and Emergency Management Group says residents are being reminded to ensure their emergency kits and plans are up to date, and also confirmed after shocks are set to continue.

Nelson Tasman CDEM public information manager Angela Ricker says authorities have warned the shallow 6.5 quake, which struck off Seddon on Sunday will be followed by aftershocks. “GNS Science estimates that in the coming week there could be up to nine magnitude 5.0 or greater events, with an approximately 30 per cent probability of a magnitude 6.0 or greater,” she says.

If you are inside during an earthquake Civil Defence says you should move no more than a few steps, drop, cover and hold. “Stay indoors until the shaking stops and you are sure it is safe to exit. In most buildings in New Zealand you are safer if you stay where you are until the shaking stops.”

If you are outdoors when the shaking starts you should move no more than a few steps away from buildings, trees, streetlights, and power lines, then drop, cover and hold.

If you are driving, pull over to a clear location; stop and stay there with your seatbelt fastened until the shaking stops.

Despite being felt throughout the Top of the South, there were no reports of damage in the Nelson region and only “very minor” damage reported in Tasman. Farmers in the Richmond Mall was one store to close on Monday as earthquake strengething tests were being undertaken.

Tasman District Council communications manager Chris Choat says the only damage done to a council-owned building was to a water tank at a community house.

“We are making for some provision at our office in Golden Bay too but we are shifting out of that anyway,” says Chris. “Apart from that we are fine.

The majority of our buildings we had recently assessed anyway.”

Police were breath testing drivers in our region over the weekend. Photo: OTD. alcohol and seven of these underwent evidential breath tests, four of which will face drink driving charges due to them being

over the adult legal limit of 400 milligrams of alcohol per litre of breath.

One driver underwent a compulsory impairment test for driving while under the influence of drugs and was subsequently warned for possession of cannabis.

Four vehicles were impounded due to the driver having been previously forbidden to drive and 195 infringement offence notices were issued for various driving, or driver licence, offences.

At the completion of Operation ZERO, Darren says police will continue to focus on patrolling rural roads.

New manager for mall Belinda de Clercq has finally got her foot in the door of the region’s largest shopping centre and never one to do things by halves, she’s landed the top job.

It’s been just four years since Belinda, the new Richmond Mall manager, emigrated to Nelson from South Africa and she says she’s had her eye on working at the Richmond Mall ever since. “I’ve wanted to be out here in the mall ever since I arrived. I love the mall, I love the region, and I love the vibrant people here in the centre of town. When I saw this opportunity [to be manager] I just went for it,” she says.

Taking over the role from David

Hill, who is now the centre manager for Palm Beach Plaza in Tauranga, Belinda’s experience comes in the form of 25-odd years in retail management, including a role as an operations manager for a large department store in SA and the running of Farmers in Nelson.

Belinda says she hopes to jump right into the job, and learn the ropes as she goes. “I’m going to find my feet first and learn to understand the role as it is very different. My main goal is to have no empty spaces in the mall, and already we’ve got new tenants in the pipeline.

“Jean Jones is coming in October, we’ve got other potential retailers

lined up that I can’t quite confirm yet and we’ve leased some of the top floor offices.”

While she’ll be busy enough settling into her job, Belinda says she is excited to get into the lead up to Christmas, busy school holiday promotions and the mall’s birthday celebrations which will be held in October.

While her retail management work history landed her the role, Belinda says she is looking forward to the unfamiliar parts of the job the most.

“One of the most exciting parts for me is to be exposed to the marketing side of things and liaising with the tenants.”

Wednesday June 19 The doors have opened to Paula’s Plate today, an event much anticipated by Nelson locals who have been waiting to sample Stoke mum and MasterChef runner up Paula SaengthianNgam’s cooking. The cafe will offer a range of cabinet food and coffee, and will be open between 8am and 4pm.

Wednesday June 12 A local family of 12 enjoyed their dinner on the house at Cafe Olive two weeks ago, after winning a competition for the region’s largest family, which the Waimea Weekly was inundated with entries for. First prize went to the Curry family and Cafe Olive owner and competition organiser Hakan Aslankilinc says he was extremely happy to see them enjoying a meal out together.

Wednesday May 23 After featuring in a Waimea Weekly article highlighting their fundraising efforts, Waimea College students have managed to raise an impressive $4948 during the 40 Hour Famine.

Through a series of events sponsored by both businesses and people in the community, the college teamed up with local youth groups Encounter Youth, Ignite Youth, Thrive Youth, and Detonate Youth to raise the funds, all of which will go towards aiding people in need in Bougainville, Papua New Guinea. Waimea College would like to thank everyone who supported them during the event, and in particular Burger King Richmond and Fulton Hogan.

More research needed to stop ‘pest’ wasps A plan to rid the Nelson Lakes National Park of wasps will need years of more research, although a spokesperson from one of the groups behind the project says support is gathering pace.

Bryce Buckland from Friends of Rotoiti, a conservation group, hosted a meeting on Wednesday to discuss the Landcare project that is intended to develop a mite that will get rid of all of the wasps in St Arnaud. “We had 26 people there from a wide range of places, including conservation groups and funds,” he says.

Bryce says a working group will form following the meeting to follow the process along.

Top cats go on show It’s fair to say Rose Boulton and Gareth Morgan have opposite views when it comes to cats.

Rose, who is the secretary of this Sunday’s Nelson Cat Show, is a breeder and currently has 20 felines of her own.

The Brightwater woman has been entering cats in the Nelson Cat Show for the past 22 years and says breeding them has always been second nature to her, growing up on a farm and being around animals. “When I got older I couldn’t have a paddock of milking cows so somehow I got the bug for breeding cats,” she says.

But why cats? “I just love them so much.

They’re good companions. They’re all different but they’re all special. But it’s in our family because my sister went for dogs.

Once you start breeding cats you can’t let go. I have 20 cats and I’ve even cut back.”

The 39th annual Nelson Cat Show will be held at the Hope Hall from 10:30am this Sunday. There will be more than 100 cats being judged by six judges, including four from overseas.

Rose says the aim is always to breed a cat that will get best in show, accumulate points and go on to win New Zealand’s best cat – something she has managed before.

“I won the national cat show and things like that but I’m not breeding as much as I used to. Although in saying that I did try to give it away but I just can’t.”

Rose recommends the show to all cat lovers in the region. “If they love cats they’ll Nelson Cat Show secretary Rose Boulton with one of the cats that will be en- come along. There are some beautiful cats tered in this Sunday’s show. Photo: Phillip Rollo. out there.”

Got a feel-good story?

Ron Kjestrup and Terry Telford from the Ukes of Hazard will play a concert for Tracey Lynch and Steve Garnett. Photo: Phillip Rollo.

Ukes to help with fire costs There is light at the end of the tunnel for Glenhope couple Tracey Lynch and Steve Garnett and a local ukulele band is making the journey sound that much sweeter.

Tracey and Steve feared they would be kicked off their rural property in Glenhope after they were found liable for a 2009 fire that destroyed several properties. They were told they were liable for around $1.2 million in damages, an amount that would financially ruin them.

But talks since have been positive and it appears they could reach a settlement for a lot less, which means Tracey and Steve could keep their land.

Since the story was first reported

by Waimea Weekly there has been an outpouring of support, with more than $10,000 donated via the website savetripletui.com.

The latest offer of support has also been a pleasant surprise for the couple with ukulele band the Ukes of Hazzard offering to play a fundraising concert for free.

The concert will be on August 9 at the Richmond Town Hall and band member Ron Kjestrup says they just wanted to help.

The tickets are $15 per person and money raised will go towards raising money to save the farm, called Triple Tui. They are available from Harvey World Travel Nelson and Richmond.

The Richmond Roast House is on the search for feel-good stories from within the community, and the author of it could land themselves a free roast dinner.

Owner Garry Higgins is offering up a $50 Roast House voucher for the best feel-good story each week, which can be written in and dropped off to his cafe at 309 Queen St, or alternatively it can be emailed through to garry@richmondroasthouse. co.nz.

Garry says it is time for positive news gets out in the community. “We just want people to know that good things do happen out there,” he says.

“There’s a bit of stuff that has happened in Nelson and obviously in Christchurch and it’s all a bit negative. I’m a feel-good person and I want to hear good things.”

So what type of feel-good stories is Garry after?

Well it can be anything. “Yeah it can be anything.

If an anonymous donator gave someone something out the blue, or helping people out through the flooding. I just want anything that will make me think ‘yeah there are some good people out there.’”

Each week Garry will select one entry that will appear in Waimea Weekly and win the voucher.

You get to vote for the four finalists and the winner will receive a $200 voucher.

The Roast House has only just reopened after being damaged in the flood and Garry says his insurance company was a great help throughout the process.

But now that he’s back open he says business is going great. “Business is ticking over. It’s been good and it’s been good to catch up with a bunch of people again.”

Your Story In Print Bring your “Feel Good” story into the Roast House and see it in print in Waimea Weekly!* Each week we will choose the best entry to appear in the paper and the author will WIN a $50 Roast House Voucher.

Pair shoot off to Canada Paul Hedwig and James Simpson are taking aim at the World English Sporting Championship in Canada at the end of the month.

The pair will be competing at their second world championship, after the same event was held in New Zealand three years ago.

Paul and James, who are members of the Nelson Waimea Gun Club, didn’t need to qualify for the world championship, but they’re still backing themselves to do well. “You pay your money and take your chance,” says Paul, who will be in the veteran class. “There is no New Zealand team going which is a shame but James and I made the commitment that we want to get better at what we’re doing but you always go to win.”

For James the task is simple: “I’m going to win. Seriously.

For my grade I’m in for it. I’m winning that.”

English sporting clays is the most popular form of clay shooting in the world. Clay targets are presented to the shooter in ways that mirror the flight pattern of game birds.

The shooting course is laid out at stations. At each one, clays are thrown in pairs, either simultaneously, or separately.

“They could be in the air or what we call rabbits, which is where they bounce along the ground,” says Paul. “They can

Because of the financial burden of getting to Canada, Paul says the pair made the commitment to go more than six months ago. “It’s not going to be cheap.”

As a shooter, Paul says the more targets you see the better “target memory you have”.

“It’s just a learning curve. The more you see the better you’ll get at it.”

Because the pair had only just started shooting competitively at the time of the last world championships, they will enter in the 2013 tournament with a lot more experience under their belts. “I was dead basic when I started and now I feel like I can hit my grade,” says James.

Ph 544 7289 Richmond’s newest bar and restaurant is now under new local management and with a name like Bar 321, you’ll have no trouble finding them.

Conveniently located at 321 Queen St in the heart of Richmond, Bar 321 is now a back to basics, family restaurant that is run under the local expertise of Alan Saville. Both Alan and the team, some original members of whom have jumped at the chance to stay on at the bar and restaurant, are welcoming the community to head down and check out the fun, friendly atmosphere now on offer.

Many changes have been made to make Bar 321 an affordable, local bar and restaurant and Alan says the focus is now on creating an environment that people can feel at home in, combining “good old fashioned service and homemade, pub style food” for an experience that everyone can enjoy.

A reinvented menu offers fresh kiwi flavours aimed at quality, value for money dining, making the most of local suppliers. A new speedy $10 lunch menu is proving to be a popular feature for locals.

Simply call in any day of the week and take advantage of the $10 lunch offer, which will change daily to provide a variety of options to customers. The restaurant dinner menu will now start from just $19 and offer options from delicious pork belly, old fashioned shrimp cocktail, roasts of the day, steaks, hearty lamb shanks and freshly baked cob loaves to classic Bar 321 burgers with beer and wine matchings. There’s also a menu specifically designed for gluten-free customers. Curry nights will be starting in two weeks time, on Sundays and Tuesdays,

Those who want to watch their favourite sports on the big screen can do so without missing out on dinner by ordering off the bar menu, which offers tasty nibbles such as homemade pies, seafood baskets and hand cut chips to be enjoyed while the game is on.

Alan says he is excited about the bars new venture and is committed to helping out fellow locals, welcoming any community fundraising goals. Proceeds from the gaming room already go out into the community via donations to air rescue and other community services. Simply call in and have a chat if you have any ideas up your sleeve.

Bar 321 is available for casual day or night time dining, as well as out catering for any special event or function. They are already planning a Christmas lunch, so make sure you don’t miss out and note your interest well in advance of the silly season, as this will be a popular day.

Proud to support Robin with all his accounting business

Robin and Meryl Jordan are excited to offer mobility solutions for people young and old throughout the Nelson Tasman district.

Local mobility expert Robin Jordan has been helping locals maintain their independence for more than 30 years from his Queen St business. Now, due to growing demand, Robin has opened a brand new store just one door down from his existing premises, enabling him to tick all the boxes when it comes to getting people from A to B. While FAV Mobile Solutions has been meeting the needs of local customers through a range of mobility scooters sales, service and hire, Robin has been wanting to expand his business further for some time and is excited to announce his new venture, Mobility 4 You, which will also supply a wide selection of mobility solutions for children. From car seats to walkers, from new born babies to 80 year olds, everything you and your family need to keep moving can now be found at a one stop shop.

All mobility scooter servicing will continue to be carried out by the same team at the FAV Mobile Solutions site, alongside car audio installation, while all mobility products including scooters, will be on display in the new store just one door down, leaving more room for the workshop team to service customer products. The 100m² store will better showcase the top of the range scooters, car seats and other mobility stock on hand, with plenty of room for customers to browse the collection.

While Robin is excited to open the doors to his brand new store, he isn’t going it alone with his wife Meryl jumping at the chance to join him in the shop. Having a keen interest in health and safety means Meryl is looking forward to learning

everything there is to know about mobility options for all, young, disabled or elderly. “It is exciting, I’m looking forward to learning about car seats, pushchairs and the rest, while providing people with a great service.”

Robin says after being in the business of mobility scooters for so long, it was a natural progression for him to expand into a more comprehensive range of mobility products for adults and children.

“It’s something that I think Richmond is lacking in. There needed to be a specialist store that people could visit and know they were getting expert advice on their child restraint or other child mobility product.”

After doing some extensive research, Robin has managed to secure some exclusive brands to stock in store which will be in ready supply alongside well known, tried and trusted names. He says the result is a product range that will meet the needs of every family, whether they have just had their first child or have a growing family in need of mobility solutions. “We have managed to source a great selection of brands and price points, with the aim that every family can access an affordable, high quality car seat, booster or push chair, or any other product along those lines.”

Capsules, booster seats, car seats and more will now be in store alongside mobility scooters, chair lifts and walkers. Robin says Mobility 4 You will also offer a range of bathroom products to help people throughout the community maintain their independence. “Whether people are temporarily

Mid winter Christmas dinner interrupted by smoke

It was the perfect dinner, 80 of our senior citizens from the Brightwater community were seated in expectation of a lovely mid Christmas dinner with all the trimmings. The steaming roast vegetables had just come out of the oven, the chicken was cooked and the ham was about to be carved by the Vicar (it’s a bit of a tradition).

Then the peace was shattered by the wailing of the fire siren and the Vicar became a blur as he answered the call. Dinner carried on without missing a beat, as the church community continued on with the annual custom of honouring the older people in the community.

They were aided by some talented singers from the Brightwater school and Steven Mitchell who provided the entertainment.

The Vicar, smelling of smoke, returned in time for dessert.

The richness of our Brightwater community was shown on 12 July, with 80 of our living treasures being honoured through the work of the church community and the school. Elsewhere, someone with a fire was helped by another section of the volunteer community.

All in all, Brightwater, is a great community to live in.

A big thank-you to the coaches, managers and parents who helped make this a successful day.

Wanderers Division one team played at Centennial Park at 3pm with the Intermediate 2 and Intermediate 1 teams playing beforehand with good supporting crowds.

The senior team won on the day with a 33 – 7 win over Kahu Rangi. The lights were turned on as the weather was very overcast and dark. The Div 1 team has gone through the season without a loss at this stage winning the first round in our local competition and now playing in the Tasman

Trophy competition with Marlborough teams. The semi-finals will be played this coming weekend, with teams battling it out for a position in the finals.

The Premier netball team was involved in a promotion relegation game, playing a very fired up Prices B team and unfortunately have been relegated to the Premier 2 grade.

Games will now be played on a Saturday and with some players having to work, it will make it very hard to put a team together some days. If you are interested in playing please contact Tash 0274 640 474 Both the B team and Titans are playing very well in their respective grades and the Titans are looking good for going up at the end of the round.

Reverend Jeff Cotton, Bishop Richard Ellena, Archdeacon Andy Joseph and Father David Gruschow at last year’s Blessing of the Fleet.

Fishing fleet ready for annual blessing Nelson’s fishing boats will be blessed this Saturday as part of the annual ceremony ahead of the hoki season.

The 13th Blessing of Nelson’s Fishing Fleet is scheduled for July 27, paying an annual tribute to those who have lost their lives at sea, along with the blessing of boats prior to the hoki season.

There will be the usual fireworks on Friday night, with viewing from the waterfront and the port hills. Flares and fireworks will be set off from 6.30pm.

On Saturday at 1pm, Reverend Jeff Cotton, Father David Gruschow and Archdeacon Andy Joseph will take the blessing service at the Seafarers’ Memorial, with fishing boats lined up along Wakefield Quay.

Music will be provided by the Nelson Male Voice Choir, TS Talisman Cadets, the Nelson Christian Academy, lone piper Jeremy Katterns

and the Nelson Youth Brass Band.

Pigeons will be released at the end of the service.

Seafarers Memorial Trust spokesman Mike Smith says the Blessing of the Fleet has stood the test of time and is a very special commemoration by the Seafarers Memorial Trust. “Nelson is still Australasia’s biggest fishing port and the industry and its support services are hugely important to our town – over a quarter of the workforce is engaged in this sector in one way or another,” he says.

“We’ve developed this ceremony here in Nelson and it is unique in New Zealand. It is hugely valued by the families that have lost members at sea and it’s an opportunity for the public to come together, show their respect and perhaps find out a little more about the industry.”

If Saturday is wet the Blessing of the Fleet will be held on Sunday 28 July.

Nelson Giants star Mika Vukona will captain the Tall Blacks on a tour to China. Photo: Phillip Rollo.

Mika to lead NZ It appears that Mika Vukona is an optimist. Despite leaving for China without the likes of Kirk Penney, Steven Adams, Lindsay Tait, Isaac Fotu, Leon Henry, Alex Pledger and Rob Loe alongside him, the Tall Blacks captain still believes it is an exciting time for New Zealand basketball.

The Tall Blacks, who are coached by former Giants coach Nenad Vucinic, will face two Chinese club sides this week before taking on Cameroon, a Canada selection and another Chinese side in a fourteam tournament – all in preparation for the home-and-away Oceania championship against Australia, starting on August 14 in Auckland.

When questioned about the current squad, which includes four newcomers, one of which is Nelson Giants guard Brook Ruscoe, the first noun Mika replies with is excitement. "Yeah it's definitely excitement. Look obviously we've lost four or five experienced players but it's a great way for the new guys to jump into the deep end and find out whether they can play, and I think they can," says the New Zealand Breakers power forward.

With one player in the squad just

16 years old and a few more still at secondary school, it's fair to say the Tall Blacks will be calling on the experience of Mika, who has gone without a true break from basketball since October last year. And that is something he is more than happy to help out with. "I think it's a good situation because guys are learning off you, you're learning off them. The majority of this team are pretty enthusiastic and everybody is giving it 100 per cent."

While beating Australia next month will be the side's main focus, Mika says the trip to China is vital to get the youngsters up to speed with international basketball. "We just want to get these guys experience, let them know this how you play international basketball and get the offense sorted so by the time we come to play Australia we'll know what we're doing."

A third Giant, Josh Bloxham, was expected to be on the plane to China on Sunday but injured an ankle during a warm up game against the Philippines. He is now in doubt for the Australian series.

Waimea shine in Christchurch Nelson was well represented at the South Island Secondary Schools Junior Development Tournament held in Christchurch last week.

Nelson College for Girls 10A were placed third in the Combined Grade, while the 9A team finished 24th.

Waimea 9A players Lauryn Davenhill and Lauryn Hippolite were identified as talented players along with Waimea 10A Michaela Kerr after some outstanding play.

Waimea 9A coach Ann Wicken was well aware of what her team would encounter, having been there before with previous teams, however it was all foreign territory for her charges. The girls stepped up to the challenge to play some enterprising netball.

The well drilled team have an abundance of talent, and an enormous amount of depth.

Waimea recorded some astonishing wins – two with margins of 62 and 58. The amount of goals scored was nothing short of amazing, Eva Jensen and Aimee Book led the charge.

Carol Cook

Netball Reporter editorial@waimeaweekly.co.nz

They moved the circle beautifully, their timing was spot on and their accuracy was nothing short of impressive (well into the 80 per cent).

Captain, Lauryn Davenhill had an outstanding tournament as she anchored the defensive end. She was ably supported

by Chelsea Neame and Louise Walker, while wing defence Chelsea McManaway got through a power of work on the outside of the circle.

Waimea had a seven win and two loss record for the three day tournament. While they breezed through pool play and their first crossover, they had a game on their hands when they met Villa Maria. It was a closely fought encounter, which could have gone either way however it was Villa Maria who game out on the right side of the ledger 30-29.

In the semi final, Waimea lost to St Hilda’s Collegiate 27-29 in extra time, with unforced

errors creeping into their play.

The green team left their best until last, when they totally dominated their nemesis Villa Maria 41-17 to claim third place.

The Waimea 10A played well as a unit, playing consistently for four quarters during the first two days however on the third day of play the wind was out of their sails.

Waimea fought tooth and nail in their semi final before going down to Christchurch Girls 26-28 in extra time. Captain, Ellie Gaging had a superb tournament as she shouldered a hefty load through court and finished off nicely in the shooting circle. Kate Bolton played consistently to return excellent statistics at goal shoot.

Megan Stack was the pivotal link through court while Libby Wehner had strong performances at wing defence.

While Waimea lost to St Margarets 21-34 in the play off for seventh, they have the knowledge that they took the eventual winners Christchurch Girls to extra time.

Richmond’s title hopes crushed by school boys

A dramatic week of local football means the result of the region’s top league will come down to the final game of the season with just two teams now in the race to be crowned champions.

This time last week Richmond had a three point lead in the Nelson Bays Football first division but FC Nelson and Nelson College were breathing down their necks and each held two games in hand, giving them a clear advantage.

By Thursday the trophy was destined for Jubilee Park after both FC Nelson and Nelson College lost mid-week games to Suburbs and Wakefield, respectively. But by Saturday afternoon it all changed again with Nelson College giving Richmond a 6-1 hiding and FC Nelson winning, swinging momentum back to the city teams.

Richmond and FC Nelson both sit on 26 points but FC Nelson has a much better goal difference and College sit one point behind them.

Now it all comes down to Saturday, where FC Nelson and Nelson College are the only two teams playing, due to a postponed game earlier in the season.

The winner will win the league, if it’s a draw FC Nelson will claim the cup.

Follow all that? Either way, this Saturday’s game at Broads will decide the league and will be a cracker to watch.

Kick-off is at 3pm.

Bridget Budget answers your questions

Q: I have got a big bill due this

week and I don’t have the money to pay it and still feed my family.

Finances are really tight since I have had to go on the benefit. If I pay the bill, how can I feed my family?

A: There are a few options for you:  First, contact Work and Income and ask about a

Food Grant. You will need to provide evidence of your hardship and unforeseen expenses.  If Work and Income cannot help you, ask for a letter stating that you have used your entitlement. Take the letter to one of the Nelson Food Bank agencies and request a food parcel.  For people who are experiencing genuine hardship, there are a few churches such as Loaves and Fishes at All Saints Church who provide lunches for a small donation on certain days of the week.  A number of social agencies have small stores of food for their clients who are experiencing hardship and are in need of a meal.

To prevent you getting into this situation again:  Work on ways to increase you income.  Create a savings plan for unforeseen expenses.  Drip feed weekly payments in advance to services that you know you will need in the future such as the doctor, council, vet, or your power company.

If you want some advice on managing your budget, call us. We offer free, confidential advice for everyone.

WEDNESDAY 24 July 2013

Waimea on target again Waimea College’s dominance at the secondary school paintball competition has continued, claiming its third Paintball Nelson Appleby Cup in as many years.

The school competition, which was contested by Waimea, Nelson College and Motueka High School on Friday, gives paintball players the unique opportunity to represent their school in a team, something Paintball Nelson Appleby coowner Wayne Stockdale says was lacking. “We thought wouldn’t it be great to have those bragging rights? School against school,” he says. “A lot of these guys originate from our club but this is all about their individual school and their mana.”

A variety of different games were held during the four hours on Friday and the 2013 event saw the introduction of more limited ammo games, which Wayne believed was an improvement, but also made it more difficult.

Nelson finished second again this year and were followed

by Motueka.

Rugby refs clock up 100 games Nelson’s two most experienced rugby referees have been acknowledged for passing a 100 game milestone.

Hadley Peterson and Paul Gurr were both presented with a blazer from the Nelson Bays Referees Association on Saturday for controlling 100 division one club rugby games.

Hadley says he is “hugely proud” of the blazer and to be recognised for his efforts. He started refereeing in 2001 as a 20 year old and says he still remembers his first game fondly. “It was Waimea Old Boys against Huia. I was nervous as buggery. Mark Milne was playing but he only lasted 70 minutes, he got a bit cheeky and got sin binned,” he laughs.

Hadley passed his 100 game milestone early last year but was awarded the

Paul was presented with his blazer after the Wanderers verses Nelson semi-final, which was also his 100th game. He also started in 2001 and says he played and

coached senior rugby before moving into refereeing. “It’s a good way to stay involved and you can’t get a better seat for a game than refereeing it. You feel the hits but you don’t get it, it’s great.

I love the banter with the players and coaches and it’s a good way to keep fit.”

He also remembers his first senior game and first final fondly but says his 100th would be up there. “I don’t think I’ve had so much fun on a rugby field for a long time. I was just pumped, it was a great day. The teams tried to play good footy, there was a great atmosphere and I just really enjoyed it.”

It may be some time before the next blazer is handed out with the next most experienced referees sitting on about 40 games.

Injuries Can Threaten Your School and Work Holiday Plans School holidays are nearly over and for some, their well-designed holiday plans have been put on hold due to injury. As the netball, football and rugby seasons progress, those both young, and a little older, involved in these sports face the risk of injury. For high school students who are travelling to winter sports tournaments, injuries can threaten the chances of participating in their chosen sport. Parents too, often plan a well earned skiing trip or a summer break further from our shores. An untimely injury can mean last minute catastrophe, where holidays and sports tournaments are put on hold or cancelled altogether.

Those in the know, seek assistance and advice from Richmond Physiotherapy who are based in the Lower Queen Street Health complex and last week celebrated two years in these new premises. By consulting directly and promptly with Martin, Sharon, Helen or Sue, catastrophe can often be averted. Immediate advice and assessment ensures

injuries are immobilised, iced and diagnosed quickly and further injury is avoided. In the case of a mild sprained ankle, good quality strapping and regular icing can mean that sport can be continued and planned activities continued. More serious injuries may require a short rest from activity and sport to reduce the potential for longer term problems.

“It’s more difficult to reverse problems down the track when

acute injuries are poorly handled, but if good advice is adhered to early then recovery is quick and successful”, says Martin King, physiotherapist, and in his sixth year working at Richmond Physiotherapy. Sharon Bailey says, “We can advise people early on acute management and if they are mild to moderate, injuries can be fully managed right through to return to competitive sport or the

weekend warriors return to club sport. We can also sift out the more serious injuries and ensure they are rehabilitated fully and if needed, xrayed and referred to specialists.”

Andrew, aged 16, was very concerned about his chances of participating in representative football training and competition over the school holidays due to a knee injury he sustained during a game 3 weeks ago. After

a thorough assessment, Martin recommended a short period of alternative training using the pool and cycling, and then progressed Andrew to a strengthening programme in the gym. Andrew was delighted to be fully fit and keen to take part in his planned football activities these holidays.

“We have a well equipped gym in our Lower Queen Street premises and we also utilise the pool and fitness centre at the ASB Aquatic Centre for our sport injuries. Often we are called on to assess why an injury is chronic or recurrent and we can do a full bio-mechanical assessment to see what muscle imbalances, tightness or lack of strength might be contributing to the problem. We have been doing this work in Richmond for 24 years and our team’s combined training and experience is significant,” say owners Helen Macdonald and Sue Marren.

Waimea Old Boys Rugby Club

27

www.wobrfc.co.nz

Waimea fly past Hawks Star & Garter Waimea Old Boys secured their first appearance in the Nelson Bays Club final in 11 years on Saturday with a convincing 33-8 win over a spirited Kahurangi Hawks side.

The game wasn’t as one sided as the score line suggests though, as particularly in the first half, Kahurangi threw everything at Waimea.

With the majority of possession, Kahurangi mounted several attacks on the Waimea

defence, however, with a slight breeze at their backs Waimea were able to turn any change of possession quickly into a territorial gain through the accurate boots of Marty Banks, Billy Guyton and James Lowe.

Billy kicked three penalties and Conna Trathen scored the only try of the first half as Waimea took a 14-3 lead into the break.

The start of the second half saw Kahurangi again with early possession but unable to

convert it into any points as Waimea’s forward pack got themselves into the game.

After several set phases on the Kahurangi line, Waimea were able to crack the defence, blindside flanker Dale Russ scoring from a strong pick and go.

From there Waimea took control of the match, the following kick-off resulted in a line break from Marty, giving the final pass to Billy who still had plenty of work to do but crashed over the line in the tackle of

two defenders.

Halfback Kaide Whiting scored the fourth try for the home team and with a 33-3 lead the match was sealed for the Waimea side.

Kahurangi scored in the final play of the game from a charged down clearing kick in the Waimea half to make it 33-8.

This weekend’s final sees the Waimea side take on Taylor’s Contracting Wanderers in the final which will be played at Trafalgar Park at 3pm.

Waimea Old Boys first five Marty Banks in action during Saturday’s semi-final.

Bs close in on championship leaders Super Liquor Waimea Old Boys are now only one point behind division two leaders Murchison, after beating the side 10-5 on Saturday.

With only three rounds to go, bonus points could be crucial in deciding the final placings ahead of the playoffs, which is probably why Waimea Old Boys cocoach Wayne Bateman was ruing allow-

SG

ing his opponents to claim one for losing by less than seven points. “We had a late opportunity where we could’ve got a penalty and that wouldn’t have given them a bonus point,” says Wayne. “We’ve been talking about our last few games and we need to get that number one or two spot.

Waimea were the first to score in the game courtesy of a John Higgins penalty before

SG

fullback Mitchell Bateman scored one of the tries of the season on the 20 minute mark, a slick backline move on halfway resulting in a try under the posts.

Murchison then responded with a try of their own but couldn’t convert.

The second half was a tight affair and both sides remained scoreless, giving Waimea Old Boys an important win.

Waimea Old Boys will play Marist this weekend before taking on Nelson and Wanderers in the final two regular season fixtures.

Wayne says it will be important to win all three games and was confident his side could do it. “This year is the hardest and anyone can beat anyone on the day, which is the tough thing about this comp.”

Draft Tasman District Council Local Alcohol Policy The Tasman District Council has prepared a draft Local Alcohol Policy (LAP) with which it wishes to consult with the community. The object of the Sale and Supply of Alcohol Act 2012 (the Act) is in brief focussed on reducing alcohol related harm. The Act allows councils to develop Local Alcohol Policies (LAPs) for their territorial areas.

The draft LAP The draft LAP for Tasman District contains the following types of licensing policies: •

variations on the maximum trading hours set in the Act for on-licences and for off-licences;

•

various discretionary conditions for on-licences, off-licences, club licences and special licences, including a discretionary one-way door policy for pubs, nightclubs and taverns;

•

restrictions are set on the location of new licensed premises.

In preparing the draft LAP the Council considered a range of policy options, some of which have been rejected/not included in the draft LAP. For your information, these are listed after the Statement of Proposal.

The full Statement of Proposal may be inspected during ordinary office hours at Council’s Office, Service Centres or Libraries.

A copy of the full Statement of Proposal may be viewed or copied from the Tasman District Council website at: www.tasman.govt.nz A summary made to fulfil the purposes of sections 83(1)(a) and 89 of the Local Government Act 2002 was published in the Nelson Mail on Wednesday 10 July 2013.

Submissions will be received at any time from Wednesday 10 July 2013 up to 4.30 pm on Friday 30 August 2013.

Amendment of the Tasman District Council Freedom Camping Bylaw 2011 & Draft Tasman District Council (Motueka and Pohara Foreshore) Freedom Camping Bylaw 2013 The Tasman District Council Freedom Camping Bylaw 2011 being Chapter 11 of the Tasman District Consolidated Bylaw has been in effect since 31 May 2011. It is proposed that the existing Bylaw remains generally in force, but three specific areas are removed from the control of that existing Bylaw, and brought under the control of the proposed Tasman District Council (Motueka and Pohara Foreshore) Freedom Camping Bylaw. The Tasman District Council Freedom Camping Bylaw 2011 is amended consequentially.

Written submissions or objections should be sent to: Tasman District Council, Private Bag 4, Richmond, 7050 Submissions or objections will be received up to 4.00 pm on Friday 16 August 2013.

Vegetation Control – Roadside Spraying in Rural Areas Registration of Non-Spray Areas Tasman District Council’s roading maintenance contractor is responsible for vegetation control within the road reserve. This includes the use of knock-down, residual and brushweed herbicides to remove vegetation growing in the roadway and around street furniture. The contractor is also responsible for control of pest plants and other noxious weeds such as gorse, fennel, hemlock, blackberry, broom, bracken, purple pampas grass and box thorn.

Residents can request that their rural property frontage not be chemically sprayed and instead undertake the vegetation control themselves. On approval Council will mark the no spray area with red marker pegs.

Rural residents who choose the “no spray” option must control the vegetation growth along their property frontage to ensure road users are not impeded and all roadside signs and markers are clearly visible. Vegetation height should not exceed 300mm. Any stormwater drainage ditches need to be kept clear of excess vegetation. At intersections vegetation must be kept well clear to ensure good sight lines for traffic using the intersection.

If you wish to apply for your property to be added to the “No Spray” list, please contact Robyn Scherer, Engineering Secretary, Tasman District Council, Ph. 03 543 8524 or Email robyn.scherer@tasman.govt.nz

Community Notices Wakefield Bush Restoration Society Wakefield Bush Restoration Society and Tasman District Council invite you to the Annual Tree Planting. Saturday 10 August 2013 10.00 am until 12 noon.
