Bus service to be investigated Simon Bloomberg Reporter

simon@waimeaweekly.co.nz

The drive for a new express bus service between Wakefield and Nelson hit a minor speed bump on Monday when the NelsonTasman Regional Transport committee rejected a request for a trial of the service. Support for the proposed bus route gathered momentum ear-

lier this month when its proponents presented a 1000-signature petition, asking for a trial to the Tasman District Council. Although the transport committee rejected the request for a trial, committee chair and Tasman district councillor Stu Bryant says they recommended that council conduct a feasibility study on the proposal. “It’s no good starting a trial without knowing what it’s going to

cost and how we are going to fund it,” Stu says. “We are also receiving demand for a bus service from other areas like Mapua, so we have to consider that as well.” Although the proposal was wellsupported in the petition, Stu says the service would need to have “a point of difference” to make it attractive to commuters. “If it sits in the same slow traffic as everyone else, why would you be on the bus? It needs to be an

express lane or have a cheap fare or a combination of those things.” Stu says the committee’s recommendation for a feasibility study is likely to be discussed at the next full council meeting on April 13. “It’s a pretty straightforward recommendation but it will be interesting to see if it gets full support from council,” Stu says. One of the supporters of the petition, Kate Malcolm, of sustainable transport lobby group Nelsust,

says “we are still hopeful” that the trial will proceed. Kate says she understands the need for a feasibility study but insists a trial is the only way to determine if the service is viable. “They haven’t said no and a desktop study is fine as long as it doesn’t drag on for years. We still think a trial is the best option because how do you know if people will use the bus until they have the opportunity.”

Butcher retires after 50 years Simon Bloomberg Ray Hutchinson won’t miss the early morning starts, but he will miss his workmates after calling it quits on almost half a century of working in butcher shops around Nelson. The 64-year-old received an emotional send-off from his workmates at Westmeat in Richmond last Wednesday when he had his last day on the job. It signalled the end of a 50 year career that started in 1967 when he left Nelson College and signed up as an apprentice in a “little butcher’s shop” on Weka St in Nelson.

“I try to be creative often, I like scrapbooking, colouring and drawing with the kids and painting. It’s nice to be expressive and take time out.”

“I love music and cooking. I play the guitar and cook when my wife lets me, as we both love it. I have a diverse repertoire, I enjoy wild foods.”

“It’s part of my job, so daily. I help families to problem solve. I love the fact I can think outside the box and be creative, although I’m not artistically creative.”

“I made brawn for the first time the other day. I got a pig’s head from work and cooked it up, it tasted pretty nice for the first one. And I make my own bacon sometimes.”

FROM PAGE 1 After completing his apprenticeship, Ray worked “at a few places” before joining the Nelson Freezing Company, which later became Westmeat. He left to manage a butcher’s shop on Roto St for a few years but when that was sold, returned to the Nelson Freezing Company butchery on Hardy St and spent the next 40 years working for that company and its successor Westmeat. “There were 14 guys at Hardy St in those days so it was a big shop,” Ray says. “I’ve had 40 years with them this time around and one month short of 50 years as a butcher.” And not surprisingly, Ray has seen “heaps of big changes” in the trade during those years. “We used to wrap everything in cellophane back then and I can

mean we knew he wouldn’t let anything go past.” After 50 years of early starts, often two or three in the morning, Ray says he is looking forward to sleeping-in and “trying to play a bit more golf ”. He is also a keen hunter and still plays Golden Oldies rugby for the Buccaneers, so he will have plenty to do in his retirement. “I’ll miss working with the guys. We have a lot of fun and we have a few arguments too. “But I’ve been hanging out to go and play some more golf and I have 300 acres in the Marlborough Sounds to wander around, so I can catch a pig or shoot a deer or do nothing.” Westmeat Nelson manager Kevin Kramer says Ray has been a perfect employee, “always arriving on time and getting the job done”.

At Christmas time, we used to have little old grannies turn up with a flagon for you or some home baking - it was very personal. “We even had sports teams in the old days. One year, we had one guy working for us who played soccer and he used to go on about how good he was, so we got a team together from all our shops and played his second division team. “All our guys were just rugby guys and we played them at Victory Square and we won 2-0. “We put our assistant manager in as goalie because he was so

still remember the guy bringing Gladwrap around to the shop and trying to sell it. We didn’t buy it because we said it would never work - it didn’t have a dispenser and you had to roll it off and cut it, so it was really awkward. “When I started, we also used to get all our meat as whole carcasses and have to break it down to all the cuts. We’d make our own hams and smallgoods but now the meat comes in already broken up and everything is brought in. “You learned so much back then, it was a real trade. None of the young guys learn that stuff anymore, which is sad in a way.” Ray also laments the demise of the small butcher’s shops which have been replaced by supermarkets and large retail meat outlets.

I’ve been asking around and its really interesting, a few people have responded saying they think there’s a real shortage of hospitality workers across Nelson Tasman, which is actually quite a concern considering its probably one of our larger industries.” Ali posted her frustration at the lack of applicants on Facebook, asking whether New Zealand’s unemployment rate was so low no one needed work.

The lack of interest shown in a job vacancy has two Mapua business owners confused. Ali Slotemaker and Stephen Lee own Alberta’s, one of the shops in Shed 4 at Mapua Wharf, and after advertising for a cook-baker in October last year, they still haven’t succeeded in finding a permanent employee for the position. “We filled it with a university student over the summer holidays and obviously they’ve gone back to university so we’re left again with this empty position. I just can’t get over the lack of applicants we’re getting and the applicants we do get are coming from overseas, we even tried to employ someone wanting their New Zealand residency, but that didn’t work out,” says Ali. Ideally, the café is looking for a local person living in the community or surrounding area who will be a permanent member of the team, with Trade Me, Facebook and word of mouth being their three main tools in the search so far. “I think it’s a wonderful environment and we’re a great

Smaller landowners support dam Simon Bloomberg Reporter

M A SP O R T ROV E R PRESIDENT RAIDER15/38 150 ST

simon@waimeaweekly.co.nz

Owners of the popular vegetable and fruit stall 185 Hope, Gavin Williams and Angela Penman say their business won’t survive without water from the proposed Waimea Community Dam. So it’s not surprising that Gavin and Angela were among 200 small land owners on the Waimea Plains who this month indicated they would purchase shares in the $82million project. Waimea Irrigators Ltd asked 700 landowners for expressions of interest in purchasing the shares and last week announced it had “reached and exceeded” the minimum target of 3000 shares or $15million required from landowners towards the total cost of the dam. Although the economic focus of the project has been on the bigger landowners, in particular the apple growers, Gavin says the dam is also critical for many smaller land owners. He says water allocation for irrigation across the Waimea Plains will be cut drastically if the dam isn’t built and that would spell the end of their business. “We’ve been okay up to now but, if they don’t build the dam, we’ll lose half our water under the new permits,” Gavin says. “Then, if they go to stage three rationing on top of that, we’ll only get half of the half which would be the

We grow hydroponic strawberries and they’d die in 12 hours without water - even a corn crop will come to nothing if you starve it half way through. “We are only a small landowner but there are lots of people like us and we all add up. The dam isn’t just about the big apple growers.” Although water cuts are a serious issue, Gavin says he can still see the funny side when customers drive into their shop with Can the Dam stickers on their bumpers. He says “they are entitled to their opinion but we won’t be

here if there’s no dam, it’s as simple as that”. Gavin says they employ around 25 staff at the peak of the season and many of those jobs will be in jeopardy if the dam doesn’t proceed. “If we don’t get water from the dam, we’ll have to go back to growing in spring and winter and not summer which is our main crop. There won’t be any investment or jobs or anyway forward without the dam.” Waimea Plains flower growers Sarah and Richard Mangin have also indicated they will buy shares in the dam for their two hectare operation on Main Road Hope. Sarah says their business,

Green Square, grows flowers for export and would be “wrecked” without security of supply of water. Green Square’s main crop is white king proteas which are exported to Hong Kong, Dubai, Japan and the US and Sarah says they need reliable irrigation to ensure the stems can be grown to strict export standards. “Even now, in a dry season, we are affected,” Sarah says. “It doesn’t affect the plants that year but it affects the following year and sometimes the one after that - if we don’t have get security of water supply our business will be wrecked.” Richard says they are also looking at expanding their business but that’s only going to be viable with a secure water supply. “At the moment there are only two of us but if we can expand, we’ll

employ more people. But all that depends on the dam.” Waimea Plains glasshouse owner, Bruce Hana, who grows capsicums on 1.3 hectares on White and Hart roads, says he understands why some people are against the dam but urges them to look at the bigger picture. He says the dam is an investment in the future not just of landowners but also the wider community “I can see why an elderly couple on a fixed income don’t want their rates to go up to pay for a dam but I’m not convinced there’s any other option. The dam is an investment in the future - it’s for everyone’s children and grandchildren.” WIL project manager Natasha Berkett says they received expressions of interest from 270 property owners. The property owners indicated they would purchase at least 3000 of the 5000 available shares which are expected to cost $5000 each with expressions of interest ranging from one to 147 shares. Natasha says additional funding for the $82million dam in the Lee Valley is also likely to come from the Government agency Crown Irrigation Investments Ltd, which has signalled it may provide a $25million loan. The Tasman District Council has also allocated $25million in its Long Term Plan for the dam. She says the next step will be to work towards converting the expressions of interest into signed up shares when the Product Disclosure Statement is released later this year. The proposed dam will be 52m high and store 13.4 million cubic metres of water.

Community barbecue stolen Jessie Johnston What better way to feed a crowd than a good old sausage sizzle, although that can be a little tricky when you have no barbecue. For around four years, First National Real Estate has provided a barbecue for charities and community groups to use free of charge, up until a few weeks ago that is, when it was stolen from the back of their office on Queen St. Whether people are using it to feed a crowd at an event or it’s simply a sausage sizzle to raise some money, office manager Kaye Reilly says many people appreciated having the community barbecue including kindergartens and Riding for the Disabled, although RDA’s plans to fire it up at their recent summer fair were put on hold. “We actually had four bookings we had to cancel in the last two weeks,” says Kaye. “Somebody has come onto the property and taken it. “We had no bookings, we went out to get it for a booking and it was just gone, “Hopefully someone will see it or whoever’s got it will feel guilty and drop it off somewhere for us.” The barbecue was noticed missing on March 15, however the last booking was on February 25, which was also when it was returned to them, making it somewhere between those two dates that it was taken. “The region has enjoyed, for many years, the First National, Hits community BBQ to raise thousands and thousands of dollars for sports, charity and service groups. “That someone could be mean spirited enough to take it, astounds us and we genuinely hope that it will be returned so it can continue to provide the much-appreciated free service it was intended for. “We are appealing to anyone who might have any further information to make contact directly with the police,” says First National director Mark Rumsey. While the photo of the barbecue pictured shows promotional images, it no longer has these and was more recently painted all white.

Shops sell alcohol to underage teens: Two licensed alcohol suppliers were caught selling alcohol to 17-year-olds in a police operation on Sunday. The controlled purchase operation tested 20 licensed shops to see if they would sell alcohol to underage teenagers. Sergeant Kyle Bruning, Alcohol Harm Prevention Officer Nelson Bays, says there will be follow-up meetings with the managers and staff of the two shops and enforcement actions will be taken. “A good result for us is when we have no sales made to our volunteers,” says Sergeant Bruning.

Richmond football legend passes away after many years on the pitch, he made sure to give back to the sport any way he could. “He’s been on our committee, he’s coached teams, managed teams, been a player and also helped with any maintenance, pretty much every role in the club so there’s going to be a big hole in the club now he’s gone,” says Richmond Athletic president Scott Davis. “I had a teacher friend of mine who had to take a couple of football teams to a school competition and he didn’t have many football skills, so he asked me if I knew anyone who could help. I phoned

up Mike and he went and took them to the competition. If you needed something done for the club, you knew you only had to ring him and he’d be there.” Duffy’s commitment to helping anyone and everyone also extended to the wider football community where, for ten years, he assisted Nelson Bays Football general manager Clive Beaumont with youth and senior games, Tasman United matches and school tournaments. “He was the first person I would ring if I needed any help with any project that we ran and he never refused,” says Clive. “To me he was a true football legend, not

Those who knew Michael “Duffy” De Feu say they will remember him not just for his sense of humour and ability to get on with everyone, but for his commitment to the local sporting community. As well as being a life member of Richmond Athletic AFC and a passionate football fan, Duffy was also irreplaceable to many local sports groups around the region. If he wasn’t on a football field, he could be found marking out the cricket pitches, marshalling for the off-road racing club, crewing for the boat racing, volunteering for the Nelson Speedway Association and so much more. “He used to help me out with my racing right back, probably 15 years ago, he used to pit crew for me,” says Nelson Off-Road Racing Club president Darrin Thomason. “This year he’s been on our committee and been the chairperson for us. He didn’t race, he just helped on the day with seatbelt checking, fuel bay, marshalling, marking out the tracks and that sort of thing, it’s a big loss really.” Darrin says, in memory of Duffy, the club has decided to name its Easter event after him, in association with the Star and Garter. “He was never grumpy, always happy and always loved to have a drop of beer with me after the races.” Duffy started playing football as a child and

Newsinbrief Money returned The woman who lost a substantial amount of cash in the Nelson Tasman Hospice Shop in Richmond has been found and her money returned thanks to a story in the Waimea Weekly. Shop manager Karen Mackenzie-Howe approached the Weekly after a number of attempts, including going to police and posting on Facebook, failed to find the woman who dropped the money in the shop on February 15. However, the woman claimed the money just days after the story was published in the Weekly thanks to a neighbour who read the story and recognised a CCTV photo of the woman.

Youth group supports intermediate kids

Every week, youngsters gather for an action-packed night of fun, getting messy, sweaty and active at Seed Intermediate at Richmond New Life Church. The youth group, led by James Dixon and his committed team of volunteers, sets out to connect and support intermediate-aged youth with creative games and activities, and an encouraging message from a Christian perspective. “The group has been running for a number of years and has seen multiple young people come and go, all inspired positively in some form,” says James.

“It has been an incredible reward to input positive influence into the lives of the next generation and help develop young and upcoming leaders.” The inspiration for the name Seed comes from the idea of planting seeds of truth, encouragement and hope into the community’s young people, who can often be struggling with confusion and discouragement in their day-today lives. “As for intermediate, (ages 1113), it is an interesting time of growth and development where young people are beginning to make their minds up

about what values they want to follow and the kind of people they desire to be. Therefore, it is important that we guide them through this time and encourage them as they grow to make wise decisions and to live with integrity,” says James. Seed Intermediate runs at Richmond New Life at 85 Wensley Rd every Tuesday of the term, from 6pm to 7:30pm, and is open to every intermediate-aged child. For more information on the youth group, feel free to contact James at jimmy@richmondnewlife.org.nz

Students challenged by environment

Simon Bloomberg One hundred and sixty primary school students from around Nelson and Tasman went on a mission out to Greenslade Park on Rough Island last week when they took on some tricky environmental challenges as part of the fourth Moturoa Mission. The students worked in teams of four or five on Wednesday, earning points as they completed a range of hands-on activities covering coastal care, biosecurity, biodiversity, estuarine awareness and reducing waste. Tasman District Council Enviroschools co-ordinator Adie Leng says Moturoa Mission was a fun way to promote the wide range of environmental opportunities on offer to schools in the region. “Moturoa Mission has become a very popular event with our region’s Enviroschools, which find it a rich learning experience for the children as well as a huge amount of fun,” she says. The Enviroschools programme is delivered by the Tasman district and Nelson city councils and is aimed at promoting sustainability in schools and en-

couraging students to be aware of the environment. Adie says the activities were provided by educators from the Brook Waimarama Sanctuary, Cawthron Institute, Nelson Environment Centre, Nelson Provincial Museum, Natureland, Waimaori Programme and Forest and Bird. The Nelson city and Tasman district councils, as well as secondary school environmental leaders also helped out. One of the most topical challenges was the board game, Against the Flow, which involved students learning about all the factors that impact on the environmental state of the Maitai River. Adie says students also caught bugs, learned about the ecology of the Waimea Estuary, planned a response to a simulated oil spill and learned how to grade logs harvested from Rabbit Island. The Garden Knomes team from Hampden Street School won the senior section while Team Lewis of Takaka Primary School won the junior section. The senior runnerup was the Plant Squad from Mahana School while the junior runnerup was Richmond School.

Locals embrace the art of pottery

Jessie Johnston Things got a little messy on Sunday as people flocked to Craft Potters on Ranzau Rd for the second annual Love of Clay Day. “Love of Clay Day is really to introduce people to the club, so they can come and try a range of things and see the facilities,” says member Cath McFaul. “There were a lot of people and it was fantastic. Because we offered more things than last year for the adults, while their kids were doing an activity people were also doing something, so that was really lovely.” The day featured free-form activities for children where they made monster cups and dragons, the Italian techniques sgraffito and majolica and of course, the chance to throw creations on the potter’s wheel. “My mum’s part of the club and I’ve always watched her do it but I’ve never really had my own chance to do it. I’ve seen all the work she comes back with and I’ve been, like, ‘that looks so amazing’, and I thought it would be easy,” says Appleby’s Kendal Johnson. “I tried the throwing and that was really hard, I managed to make a bowl and a cup thing but yeah, it was so much harder than it looked, but really fun, and I think I’m going to be addicted to sgraffito.” The Ark was also there on the day as all funds raised through Love of Clay Day will be donated to the organisation. Anyone who would like more information on Craft Potters can email craftpotters@ts.co.nz or phone 544 5172.

Working from Plans I heard about the great service at ColourPlus in Richmond so walked in with my new house plans with wallpaper in mind. I was very happy with the customer service and range of products with selecting feature wallpaper for the house so it was an easy choice again to get ColourPlus to help me with drapes and blinds for the new build. The team at ColourPlus were knowledgeable and had some great advice using my floor-plans, colour charts and flooring choices to narrow down options, initially from off the plan, through to selecting samples to complement our colours and floorings and importantly fit in with our build budget, finally installing them to a fantastic finish to our new home. I can highly recommend calling it to see the team at ColourPlus for a great product range, friendly and knowledgeable service! – Jane Fairs

Your Voice Thanks for your help: Earlier this week, my Mum and I were involved in a car accident near Raeward Fresh and wish to thank the many people who cared and helped us through the very scary and frightening ordeal. You kept us warm, positive and even offered us a hot drink. We’re a bit sore and achy, but very thankful that it wasn’t worse. The community we have here in this area is amazing and really restores my faith in humanity when strangers both old and young are so helpful and caring. Thanks again to you all, from us both. Lisa Quinn, Best Island. Bad parking: The person using the car parked next to our Peugeot station wagon in the Mobility parking on Friday, March 24 late morning, outside PaknSave, Richmond, managed to leave a sizeable ding in the front left passenger door. It was very obvious when we came out causing us some distress. Mishaps happen but common courtesy should prevail and even a note of apology left on the windscreen would have been appreciated. As it is this individual has scarpered leaving behind a sour taste, knowing full well what happened. Rowena Haldane, Wakefield. Airport never been busier: Wow, Rob and the team are really taking the place to the next level, well done and long may the growth continue! Adrian Ferris.

A pity the Origin Terminal ever went ahead, it should have been part of expanding the main terminal. John Sauer. As a plane spotter I'm somewhat annoyed at the lack of an outdoor viewing deck in the new design. Apparently the FAA etc regard us as potential threats. Dennis Goodman. It's great that it's expanding which is great for Nelson. I think the car parking is a major issue. Even thought you get free 15 minutes, there's no way when a plane comes in you can get out of that car park in that time. Major issue. Vicky Degroot. Education grant makes a huge difference: Such a deserving woman, congrats again, Ashleigh. Allie Caddie. Well done, Ashleigh. Jackie Thomsen. Heart surgeon guilty of causing crash: Extremely sad for all involved. A moment of inattention can have tragic consequences. Dave Trigg. A very tragic accident. I’d like to see him compensate the families and then get back to the business of saving lives. Much more emphasis needed in educating foreigners about our roads and awareness to our rules.

Sincere condolences to the families. Peter Churchill. Another crash on Coastal Highway: Time for drivers to wake up, focus focus focus! Duncan Cunningham. People drive too fast, I get tired of people tailgating, even when you do the speed limit (which I do) I get tailed, now I pull over and let people pass when I can - I hate being tailed. Natalie Cozens. Again. People drive that stretch of highway way too fast. Slow down people and stay alert. Kate Eggers. It might be helpful to post an 80kmh limit on the Appleby curves. Don Welch. Oh, not again. Slow down people, and drive to the conditions such as wet roads. Ann Gallot. Something needs to be done about the big sweeping corners on that road! Philippa Foes-Lamb. It is a awesome road easy to do 100kmh. People need to learn how to drive, no need to change speed limit, that is the dumbest thing ever, and I’m saying that in a car as well. Darrin Limmer.

trophy in New Zealand motorsport, the Masport Cup. “The whole New Zealand powerboat fraternity is buzzing about the prospect of seeing the best Grand Prix hydroplanes and Grand National boats vying for the ultimate prize at Lake Rotoiti,” says club spokesman Joe Blakiston. “The current holder is Jack Lupton driving Rural Fuels GP57, of the Lupton racing empire, who at 20 years old will be going for three years in a row as Masport Cup winner, but could be outshone by his brother Ken in Lucas Oils which is the form boat so far this season.” South Island hopes will be resting on Raymond Hart driving the famous The Boss, which would have been eligible to dis-

play at the Antique and Classic Boat Show held recently, but will still be extremely competitive. While the Masport Cup has 23 boats entered, the Rotoiti Powerboat Club will also be running the Matt Morrison Memorial trophy race for inboard V8 class, with 15 boats having to qualify for places in the 10-boat final. The winner of this championship will also get the right to host the next on their home course. Other feature events scheduled for the weekend include the Railway Cup Invitational, the Arthur McCaa Memorial Trophy, South Island Series, the Pelorus Jack Invitational trophy and the King of the Lake. The Masport Cup will be contested on Sunday with the Matt

Morrison Memorial event and the Arthur McCaa Memorial Trophy on Saturday. The Lake Rotoiti Powerboat Club Regatta will be run over Saturday, April 1 and Sunday, April 2. Organisers of the event wish to say a huge thank you to all of the club’s supporters and the individuals who put in a huge amount of time and effort to make the event possible. They also thank their sponsors for their support. Please note that no dogs or drones are permitted at Lake Rotoiti, due to DOC rules. Racing starts at 10am both days with entry for adults being $10 while children under 12 are free. Please also remember to take your rubbish home with you.

What you need to know Hawkins Infrastructure is moving swiftly up the street to replace an old concrete water pipe. Traffic is reduced to one lane at times and parking is limited on Queen Street itself. If you work on Queen Street, or are going to be in central Richmond for an extended stay, we ask that you use the free all-day parking provided at the Richmond Showgrounds. We are still in the early stages of construction and it’s important we all support our local businesses throughout what will be a lengthy period of disruption. Please don’t take up parking spaces all day that could be used by customers to our retailers, cafes and the like. Queen Street remains closed from Gladstone Road up to the McIndoe Place roundabout. The next step will be to close off the McIndoe intersection to allow the pipe replacements to move along the street further. Stage One will see the intersection replaced with a roundabout and a transition from the existing kerb and channel to the smooth continuous surface that will help provide a more pedestrianfriendly experience on Queen Street. The image (right) gives an idea of what this will look like.

More information about the Queen Street Upgrade can be found at www.tasman.govt.nz/queen-street.

Business as usual The road is closed but shops in the construction zone remain open for business. The footpath is still open to pedestrians and all shops are just a short walk from the off-street parking areas shown.

Women in Business Originally from Christchurch, Diana Wilkins has returned to New Zealand after two decades living in Australia, bringing with her a wealth of experience and fresh ideas to Wakefield. Leaving with a suitcase, $500 and excited for new adventures, Australia provided a variety of opportunities to stimulate Diana’s creativity. She pursued careers in fashion, interior design and real estate and even established businesses of her own, including an interior decorating shop in Sydney and Impact Displays, which provides exhibition services to companies globally. When Diana was diagnosed with breast cancer in 2013, her daughter stepped up to take over as managing director of Impact Displays. Diana then made the decision to return to New Zealand, settling in Wakefield Village. Homemaking and interior design have remained a passion for Diana, so with her brother John, she established The Elegant Frog, offering unique giftware and homewares. “It’s only been a month since we opened our doors but already we’re finding that people will drop by just to say hello, which we love”, says Diana. Pop in and see their range of treasures today.

I believe in the passionate, innovate and creative individuals who work hard to make the Tasman community a thriving environment to live, work and raise a family .

Coming from a Local Govt background means I bring experience in supporting social and community groups, and recognise the importance of regional development.

Ambrosia Café has been the home of great food in Richmond for quite some time, 16 years in fact, under the ownership of Mishael Sowman. Whether you’re looking for a delicious breakfast to get your day off to the right start, you’re after a coffee break while you’re doing the shopping or you’re catching up with friends and family for a social lunch, Ambrosia offers the perfect place to sit back and relax. “Personable service is something that is very important to us, followed of course by our great coffee and food,” says Mishael. “I love everything about owning Ambrosia, including the customers and my staff, they’re a good team to work with, in fact, the chef has been with us for around 12 years.” Ambrosia Café certainly sits in a fantastic position with people enjoying both the large outdoor dining area or the equally spacious café interior, plus, a mouth-watering range of cabinet food or some delicious brunch options from the menu, with all food proudly made onsite. For great food, great coffee and superb service head to Ambrosia Café today, open until 5pm Monday to Saturday and until 4pm on Sundays. My name is Loren McPherson and I am a registered level one 200 hour Hatha yoga teacher. I have always been passionate about health and wellness and about helping others. After being brave enough to walk away from my previous career in social services, I went on to follow my dream of becoming a yoga teacher. I achieved this last year and I have been teaching ever since. My intention behind my teaching is to make people aware that yoga really Loren McPherson is for everybody. Yoga is more than just a physical practise. It has many great health benefits from learning to breathe properly, to calming the nervous system, calming that mind chatter that we can all have and allowing us to become less reactive and who wouldn’t want that? Especially in this technological day and age where we forget to switch off and connect with ourselves and each other. Make time for yourself because you’re worth it and come and practice yoga with me.

Just a thought... The word spirituality has different meanings and understandings in various situations. In the Christian tradition, people used it to explain their experiences with God. According to the Bible, Moses had numerous experiences with God in the mountains. Not only did Moses, but other prophets in the Old Testament also had an encounter with God in a mountain setting. When we talk about Spirituality, a place can be associated with it.

The mountains are a very special place to me. In Korea, I had to live in a compulsory student residential hall during my first year as a university student. The theological university that I was attending was surrounded by magnificent mountain scenery. There were early morning services for all the students every day â&#x20AC;&#x201C; attendance to these was compulsory to everyone. If we skipped too many services, we essentially could not graduate as it was part of course checklist.

WEDNESDAY 29 March 2017

Additionally, there was a senior leader in each room of the halls. They led the daily evening devotions for their allocated roommates. To me, that journey was part of my training period to develop my spirituality. Later on in university, I started prayer meeting groups with some of my friends. Every night, we would hike up to the top of surrounding mountain and had a prayer meeting. Through these experiences and fond memories, the mountains became a very special place in terms of my spirituality.

Giants cut US import after just three games Nelson Giants import Joe Slocum has been cut from the team just three games into the NBL season. Mike Pero Nelson Giants coach Alan McAughtry informed the point guard of the decision on Monday. Alan says a replacement import was still to be finalised but he was confident they have their man and he would play against the Southland Sharks on Thursday night. Alan says Joe’s lack of points in the first three games; ultimately cost him his spot on the roster. Fellow import Curtis Washington remains with the Giants. The decision comes after the Giants went 0-3 to start the season for the first time in franchise’s history.

Jacob Page Sports Editor

sports@nelsonweekly.co.nz

“It’s not an easy decision to make but we are lacking in the points scoring department and to lose all three games by at least 20 points is not something that can continue.” Joe scored just 15 points across his first three games and didn’t score a point in the opening game against Southland. Alan says he wanted to ensure supporters that the club was looking at ways of improving. “I know that in a league like this the spotlight falls on the two imports and the coach. Alan says the decision was made after seeking advice

from people within the club, including assistant coach Brendon Bailey. “This decision will resonate with the playing group and will be a message that we aren’t just going to let the season pass by. “Joe was a class act about the decision – while he was disappointed, he handled it with class. “We need a point guard with some scoring punch. “We have fans, sponsors and kids to play for and while we will continue to work extremely hard off the court, I’d be remiss not to try to improve the team going forward.” The Giants will host the Southland Sharks on Thursday night with tip-off at 7pm.

Waimea put senior rugby teams on notice Jacob Page Last year’s senior rugby finalists Marist have had an early reality check against a rampant and much improved Waimea Old Boys who won 33-16 on a wet Tahunanui Fields on Saturday. By all indications of the round of the Tasman Trophy Rugby competition, the Nelson teams all seem competitive. Galbraith Nelson had to overcome a halftime deficit to beat Freeman Roofing Stoke 34-20 at Neale Park, while defending Nelson Bays champions Taylors Wanderers had to work hard to wear down Kahurangi 31-23 at Brightwater. However, it will be the match at Tahunanui Fields that will have raised the most eyebrows with a vastly improved Star and Garter Waimea Old Boys team taking it to New St Steakhouse Marist at scrum time and looking potent with their backline to surge away with the game. Eli Kneepkens only enhanced his reputation on debut for Waimea. The fullback was always an attacking threat, scoring his team’s first try and kicking all his seven attempts at goal for a 23-point haul. Marist coach Ant Holder lamented that his team played too expansively for the deteriorating conditions and were not

Henry’s

as accurate as they should have been at set piece time. While the hosts were always in the game, Waimea’s defence bent but did not break at crucial times. Waimea got great value out of Jeff Lepa in the forwards while Michael Stringer had his moments in the midfield. Waimea coach Mark Milne says he was surprised at how well the scrum went but he was thrilled with how his team kept up their workrate throughout the game. A hat-trick of tries from New Zealand sevens representative

Tone Ng Shiu was enough to keep Wanderers in control of their home game against Kahurangi. In senior B action, Riwaka beat Wanderers 24-5, Huia beat Country Combined 60-8, Stoke beat Nelson 36-7, Collingwood downed Motueka United 20-17 and Marist overcame Waimea Old Boys 13-12. Round two this Saturday sees Stoke travel to Riwaka to battle Kahurangi, Marist welcome Wanderers for a repeat of last year’s Nelson Bays final at Tahunanui and Waimea Old Boys host Nelson at Jubilee Park.

Tasman swimmers in the medals Tasman’s Sam McKenzie won the silver medal in the 100m freestyle for 17-year-old boys and a bronze in the 50 butterfly at the New Zealand Age Group Championships in Wellington last week. Sam, who attends Waimea College, also set a Nelson-Marlborough open record in the 50m butterfly and five regional age group records. Tasman’s Sierra Thomas was also a double-medal winner, picking up bronze medals in the 400m and 800m freestyle for 12-year-old girls and breaking her own Nelson-Marlborough record for the 800m free in the process. Three more Waimea College students who swim for Tasman club also made their mark. Talya Harwood collected an age group bronze medal in the 800m freestyle and also broke her own Nelson-Marlborough record. Teammate Xavier Anderson broke the regional record for the 200m butterfly for 16-year-old boys, and Bree Anderson broke regional records in the 100m and 200m backstroke. Matai McGuinniety of Nelson South Swimming Club won a gold medal in the 50m butterfly for

16-year-old boys. The Nelson College student set a Nelson-Marlborough record in the morning prelims with a time of 25.99 seconds, then rose to the occasion to break it again in the final, winning gold with a time of 25.83. Matai also set a regional record in the 50m backstroke and just missed a bronze medal in the 50m free. Nelson South’s Clara Foster (Nelson College for Girls) won silver in the 50m breaststroke and bronze in the 100m breaststroke for 17-year-old girls. For the evening finals, swimmers were grouped in youth and age categories. In the hotly contested races in the 16-18 year-old Youth category, Nelson South’s Georgie Trengrove from Nelson College for Girls joined Matai, Sam, Clara and Tayla in qualifying for finals, each achieving at least one top 10 finish in their age group. In the Age category for 12-15 yearolds, several Nelson-Marlborough swimmers were top 10 finalists in their specialist events: Sophie Alexander, Ruby-Lou Stuart, Joshua Amyes, Bree Anderson, Bendi Kepess, Piper Riley and Sierra Thomas.

Temporary route change – Tasman’s Great Taste Trail

Classic boat event reservation and speed limit uplift

Tasman’s Great Taste Trail has been re-routed for a short section in Richmond while work is undertaken to protect both the Richmond Resource Recovery Centre and the cycle trail from erosion. From Beach Road, the trail will travel along Fittal Street for 260 metres before joining back up with the permanent trail. A temporary 30kmh speed limit has been introduced on Fittal Street to ensure the safety of cyclists on the diverted route. The temporary route will be in place until early April.

The Rotoiti Power Boat Club will be conducting a regatta involving high-speed power boat racing at Kerr Bay, Lake Rotoiti between 8.00 am and 6.00 pm on both 1 and 2 April 2017. Other lake users are encouraged to use the ramp and beaches of West Bay for access during the event. Communications are over VHF channel 17. People wishing to waterski should perform deep water starts outside of the reserved area while the reservation is in force. Other conditions have been imposed and may be viewed at www.tasman.govt.nz/recreation/boating-fishing/ special-events-and-activities Further details for these and any new events are online at www.tasman.govt.nz/link/maritime-events.

Are you a rural-based club or do you have rural-based players? If so, the Tasman Sport NZ Rural Travel Fund can help meet your travel costs. Sport NZ Travel Fund reduces the barriers for young people (aged 5–19 years) taking part in local sports competition by offering grants to subsidise travel costs. The clubs must apply on behalf of players and the next closing date is 30 April 2017. Application forms and further information is online at www.tasman.govt.nz/council/grants-funding or phone Mike Tasman-Jones 03 543 8403 for further information.

Richmond watermain replacements

We’ve been doing some great work over the past year – come and hear what we are doing this coming year and help us plan for the next ten.

Over the next seven months, new water pipes will be installed in D’arcy Street, Fauchelle Ave, Florence Street, Elizabeth Street and Herbert Street in Richmond. The work will begin in D’arcy Street on Monday 3 April. The existing pipes in these streets have reached an age where they are showing signs of deterioration and need to be replaced to avoid disruption to residents’ water supply. At the same time, we will replace ageing water meters on these streets. At times during the works, access to the footpath and some car parks will be affected. Please avoid the coned off areas and follow signage and instructions. Traffic will be restricted to one lane for short periods of time throughout construction. Your patience is appreciated.
