DOTING DAD: Horsham’s Jay Gasparini will celebrate a special Father’s Day on Sunday following the birth of his first child. Jay and fiancée Nadinne Riddell welcomed Mia Jessica Gasparini at Wimmera Base Hospital in Horsham on August 26, weighing 2.6 kilograms. Jay said he was excited to become a father and looked forward to seeing Mia ‘grow up into the girl she is going to be’. “I just want to spoil her,” he said. The family of three will spend a quiet day together on Sunday, enjoying their ‘newborn bubble’. “We can’t really do too much at the moment because of restrictions,” Jay said. “I’ll probably just spend the day looking at Mia – she’s a time-waster.” Nadinne said she loved watching Jay bond with their daughter. “Jay has taken to being a dad like a duck to water,” she said. “He’s just been amazing, doing the nappy changes and dressing her and helping us both with anything we’ve needed. We’re very lucky.” For more on Father’s Day, see pages 22 and 23. Picture: PAUL CARRACHER

Festival makeover A

BY DEAN LAWSON

large musically synchronised fireworks display that people can watch from their cars or in isolation is set to headline a new-look Kannamaroo Festival in Horsham later this year. The ‘pyromusical’ is one of several community-engagement ideas festival organisers are planning in efforts to provide the Horsham district community with a sense of ‘hope and solidarity’. Plans for the November 27, 28 and

29 event involve staging creative activities that will meet social-distancing requirements and, unlike traditional Kannamaroo events, avoid large gatherings of people. If successful, the festival might provide a rough template for other large-scale regional events at risk of cancellation in the future because of the coronavirus pandemic. Organisers of the iconic event, which for many in the Wimmera’s heart signals a transition from spring to summer and a build-up to Christmas, are determined the celebration

will go ahead – but in a vastly different format. Committee president Di Bell said ‘hope’ was the theme for this year’s festival and plans were for many different types of events spread across the rural city. “Yes, we’re having a festival, but unlike other years we’re not closing the main street or any streets to allow thousands of people to gather,” she said. “It is time to think about having modified festivals and that means getting creative.

“We’re determined it is going to happen in some way. It’s about thinking outside the square. “Life has changed and we need to adapt. We can’t just say we’re not running things. “To be honest, we’re actually quite excited about what’s happening. “The ideas that are surfacing are amazing. “Kannamaroo Festival has a history of responding to change. “It was, after all, originally a riverbank party and had to change because of a long-running drought.

“We’re simply changing again with a fresh set of circumstances.” Mrs Bell said any community-engagement activity would obviously need to adhere to COVID-19 restrictions in place at the time. “The idea is to have events spread out over town and in venues where we can limit and control the number of people or where they can experience something in relative isolation, perhaps with their families,” she said.

Big step in an Ararat ‘game changer’ A

BY DYLAN DE JONG

State Government review of an Ararat housing development represents a step forward for plans that municipal leaders have described as a ‘game-changing opportunity’.

Ararat Rural City Council has given the go-ahead for development plans for a project to build 160 new houses at Ararat East Development Area. The site, known as Green Hill Lake Estate, covers 75 of the 161 hectares in the area. Developing consultant Beveridge Williams, representing Green Hill Lake Estate, asked the council to change a planning scheme to rezone about 11.2 hectares of the land. Victorian Planning Minister Richard Wynne is reviewing the proposal. Ararat council chief executive Tim Harrison said Green Hill Lake Estate developers were keen to push forward

with plans and sought councillors’ support to accelerate the process. He said the housing development, 16 years in the making, would be a major boost for the Ararat economy. “This is a game-changing opportunity for Ararat – we’ve got a clear housing issue. This will really start to turn the corner on that,” he said. “This project has had an interesting history, there’s been a whole range of things that have happened with council and developers during the past 16 years. “I’m just really pleased that we’re at the point where we’re all feeling very positive about it moving forward.” Dr Harrison said he expected the project to support development-phase and long-term jobs in the municipality. “The great thing about housing developments of this size is they generate jobs and they create new opportunities for people to come to town,” he said.

“We’ve also got employers around town trying to put people on and it’s really difficult to attract people because the rental market is very tight.” Dr Harrison said the council had committed $200,000 and the State Government $500,000 to resolve an access problem to the site at Western Highway and Heath Street intersection.

Lifestyle opportunity

Ray White Ararat real estate agent and director Philip Clark said he had only seen two major housing developments of this size in Ararat in his 24 years in the district. He said the project would open doorways for metropolitan residents seeking a country lifestyle. “I think we probably missed opportunities to get more housing in Ararat and it’s probably held us back over the years and held our growth back,” he said.

“This development will allow people to come from Ballarat, Melbourne, other metro areas, or even interstate.” Mr Clark said people seeking properties in the region had inundated Ray White Real Estate. “We have a lot of investors looking at Ararat because of the rental growth and yields. Returns on investments are better than in Melbourne,” he said. “Properties are affordable and interest rates are low. “The Green Hill Lake developers have got a good product on the fringe of town – it will allow people to have bigger blocks and there’s a real demand for that these days.” He said while demand for housing across Ararat and district was growing, it was driving up median prices. “In our March quarter we had an increase in our median price and April to July was all better than last year,” he said.

First Constable Schirmer at home on the beat Dimboola’s first permanent female police officer hopes her presence in the community will create a safe space for survivors to report domestic and sexual violence. First Constable Georgie Schirmer joined the Dimboola ranks in June after working in an investigative role in a sexual offences and child abuse taskforce at Horsham Police Station. She said having a permanent female officer present at Dimboola Police Station would likely encourage more women to seek police assistance in times of need. “We need diversity within the station so that we can better service what the community needs,” she said. “I think it will encourage reporting of family violence and sexual offences if female victims know they have a female police officer to report to.” First Const Schirmer said it was common for crimes to go unreported if domestic violence survivors felt uncomfortable reporting the matters. “Quite often in situations, particularly family violence, if there’s controlling behaviour, people might not have a phone to pick up or might not have means to travel to Horsham to report,” she said. “If they come to the station not comfortable reporting to males, it’s important they know they can feel comfortable they’re reporting to me.” She said she hoped to bridge the

SPEAK-OUT: First Constable Georgie Schirmer is keen to connect with the community in her new role at Dimboola Police Station. Picture: PAUL CARRACHER gap between survivors and law enforcement. “Already, I’ve seen a few things that might not have been reported if I wasn’t here,” she said. “The more people realise I’m permanent here and see that I want to contribute as much as I can while I’m here, I think people will appreciate.” The streets First Const Schirmer

will be patrolling are familiar – she was born and bred in Dimboola. After leaving Dimboola Memorial College, First Const Schirmer moved to Geelong for university before joining the force at Horsham Police Station. First Const Schirmer said she was now striving to re-establish her connection with her home town.

“Once the current COVID situation alleviates, I’m hoping to get more involved in the community,” she said. “I’d love to get more involved in the local primary schools to create a connection with the kids, just so they can see us as helpful people – as people they can come to if they ever need anything.” – Dylan De Jong

“The lack of stock and demand has driven our price up.” Mr Clark said few vacancies remained in the rental market and most houses had high volumes of applicants. “Last week we had nothing to offer and we manage more than 400 properties,” he said. “We have a shortage of properties and a lot of demand – we need housing.” Councillor Peter Beales said the council should continue to support the project through to the building phase. “This is not the end of the process,” he said. “It’s not guaranteed it will go up – we’ve still got to make sure all assistance is supplied to the State Government to make the right decision in our view. “It will take time. It’s not the be all or end all but it’s a bloody good start.”

Festival makeover From page 1 “Unlike the past, we’re at this stage looking at the event being a ‘bubble’ for the Horsham district community,” Mrs Bell said. “It’s about getting people into the spirit and continuing our direction to work in with various groups. “It might mean using some of the facilities in town such as new pontoons on the river, being creative while walking or cycling, dressing up, putting on multi-media displays. We’ve had many discussions about the possibilities.” Mrs Bell said the pyromusical would be at Horsham Showground and the hope was to use media technology to simulcast a music arrangement on electronic devices or radios. “We want people to be able to watch the fireworks from a safe distance or in isolation, depending on the rules of the time, and be able to log in and get the full experience of the event,” she said. “The hope is that some people will be able to drive in and park at the showground, similar to a drive-in, while others will be able to enjoy the event in nearby areas. “It is certainly going to be one of the main events of the festival.” Mrs Bell said the festival committee was calling for people with event ideas that could work with restrictions to get in touch via Facebook. “We hope to announce much more in a couple of weeks. Who knows? What we do now might lead into something bigger and better than before,” she said.

Government to reveal roadmaps

ictorians, including people living in the Wimmera and southern Mallee, are set to have greater understanding of how the State Government will navigate Victoria out of a COVID-19 lockdown.

The government will release ‘reopening roadmaps’ on Sunday in an effort to provide certainty and clarity for communities and businesses. Victorian Premier Daniel Andrews revealed yesterday that regional and metropolitan Victoria would have different roadmaps based on different circumstances. “The virus is presenting in very different ways and very different levels in regional Victoria compared to metropolitan Melbourne,” he said. “There might be some things that will be allowed in regional Victoria that won’t yet be allowed in metro Melbourne.” Wimmera Development Association

executive director Chris Sounness said the region was looking forward to Sunday’s announcements. “Hopefully they will allow our communities to do two things – one, to increase our ability to enjoy life and do business – and two, to stay safe,” he said. “The sooner we can get a kick-start the better, as long as we do it safely. “Everyone understands that this is a great opportunity, but it is still not going to be easy. “One thing we are confident about is that we won’t be going back to the way it was before COVID-19 arrived and we’re keen to know what the rules will be and the guidance is. “There will still be challenges for businesses, communities and individuals and we really hope that businesses hit for six during this second lockdown can find a way to start bouncing back.” Before announcing details on Sunday, the government will start ‘an

intensive, and extensive’, round of discussions with industry, unions and community organisations to inform the final development of Victoria’s roadmap to ‘COVID Normal’.

Key principles

Mr Andrews said consultation would be based around key principles for industry on a COVIDSafe re-opening, based on advice from public-health experts. “We need the voices of industry to inform how this re-opening can happen practically, safely and steadily. This will be vital to planning what a ‘COVID Normal’ will look like, industry by industry,” he said. “Many of the key principles are things Victorian businesses and workplaces continue to practice every day.” The principles are – • Ensuring physical distancing, including following density requirements, making sure staff work from home wherever possible, limiting the number of staff and customers in an en-

closed area, and stopping carpooling. • Wearing a face covering at all times in the workplace and ensuring full PPE is worn in high-risk settings. • Requiring hygienic workplaces, with high-touch points regularly cleaned, staff regularly washing their hands, and hand sanitisers available for all staff and customers. • Continuing to act quickly if staff become unwell by having a strict policy that supports them to stay home and get tested, even if they have mild symptoms. Mr Andrews said in recognising there was no one-size-fits-all solution, the government would commit to tailoring guidance to different industries as part of the roadmap. He said the government would also consult with community-support organisations on the impact of social isolation on Victorians. “The government will also seek feedback on the current worker-permit system and childcare arrangements

– and these insights will be vital as we transition to COVID Normal,” he said. Government engagement with industry, unions and community organisations has started. “We know every Victorian wants certainty about the future – for them, for their family and for their work. By the end of the week, we will lay out a plan to reopen our state,” Mr Andrews said.

Case numbers steady

The number of active COVID-19 cases in the Wimmera remained unchanged in Department of Health and Human Services figures late yesterday. Figures showed Horsham still had two active cases, Ararat one and Northern Grampians, West Wimmera, Yarriambiack, Hindmarsh, Yarriambiack and Buloke none. Of the 2519 active cases in Victoria, 2317 were in metropolitan Melbourne and 139 in regional Victoria.

Steps for motivation A contingent of Wimmera primary school teachers is making every step count during the COVID-19 pandemic in a walking challenge to bolster motivation. In a contest to gain the most steps, 13 Stawell West Primary School staff and teachers are collectively walking more than one million steps a week. Year one and two teacher Megan Warren said the keen walkers were tracking their daily steps to see who could gain the most distance during the remote teaching period. “We’ve been doing it for three weeks, since we went back to remote teaching, and we intend to keep the challenge going until we end up back in the classroom,” she said. “In the first week, the 13 of us completed 1,315,624 steps – so we’re smashing it. “We check in on our daily scores and every Monday we have an online meeting where we announce a weekly

winner. We’re working towards an overall winner.” Ms Warren said the walking challenge was helping staff regain motivation as they persisted through the second wave of stage-three restrictions. “It’s good for our minds as well because it’s quite stressful during remote teaching. It’s a good way to keep us engaged with one another,” she said. “I’m missing my students terribly – you might connect with them through a WebEx every day, but it’s not the same as having that face-to-face connection.” State Government requirements to continue remote and flexible learning across all government, Catholic and independent schools will likely persist until the end of term three. Principal Jim O’Brien commended all his staff, students and teachers during the second remote-learning period. “I’ve been amazed by the resilience

The teachers are juggling their own lives, their own children and doing remote teaching from home,” he said. “It’s difficult for them, but they’re all doing a really good job. “The challenge is just to get us doing something that isn’t schoolwork and we can have a bit of a laugh about it.

First Nations leader and Wotjobaluk man John Gorton is keen to throw his support behind a campaign to make the Aboriginal flag free for use.

His comments came after an Aboriginal-owned and run social enterprise Spark Health petition lobbying to free the rights of use of the Aboriginal flag tipped more than 140,000 signatures. Non-indigenous company WAM Clothing holds the copyright licence, which means anyone wishing to use the flag on clothing or in any form of media must ask permission and pay a fee. Mr Gorton, Goolum Goolum Aboriginal Co-operative chairman, said licensing agreements were a barrier for Aboriginal people wanting to display the flag. “If the Australian flag can be used by everyone then so should the Aboriginal flag,” he said. “This flag was created because Aboriginal people wanted a sense of belonging and it represents who we are, and we can’t even use it freely.” Mr Gorton said since the flag’s inception it had come to symbolise the strength and resilience of Aboriginal people. “It was one of those things growing up as an Aboriginal person, besides learning about who you are and about your tribe, you learn about the Aboriginal flag, it’s symbolism and what the colours mean and resemble,” he said. Luritja artist Harold Thomas created the flag in 1971 and owns its rights. He has made licensing arrangements with several companies over time. In 2018, he signed an exclusive agency agreement for the flag to be displayed on WAM Clothing products. Since then, the company has actively enforced its licensing rights and sent cease-and-desist notices to companies such as the AFL and NRL. “It’s a hard one because on one hand it’s someone’s intellectual property, so what he does with it is up to him,” Mr Gorton said. “But it’s annoying that they have monetised it in a sense that no one can reproduce it including Aboriginal people. The whole idea of having a flag is to represent the people. It is disappointing that it is monetised, and no one can use it.” WAM also sent letters to several small Aboriginal community groups, including charities and health organisations. Spark Health, which makes merchandise with the tagline ‘Clothing the Gap’, received a letter last year, prompting its ‘#FreeTheFlag’ campaign. Managing director and Gunditjmara woman Laura Thompson is hoping the campaign will help Aboriginal people regain control of the flag. The campaign has gained momentum in recent weeks after AFL superstar Eddie Betts made a stand wearing a ‘FreeTheFlag’ t-shirt at the opening game of Sir Doug Nicholls Round. Every AFL club has now signed on to the campaign. Mr Gorton said he hoped the original owner could negotiate a solution that worked for all parties. “If I ever had a conversation with Harold Thomas, I would ask him to reconsider his position because the whole idea of it being created was to make Aboriginal people feel like they were part of something,” he said.

Just when is a mate really a mate?

any of us have experienced those awkward moments when a very close and powerful mate does something wrong that sends a shudder through the internal moral compass.

You know, those incidents in the school yard, the pub, the workplace, the sporting field, everyday life, that grate against the soul and leave you feeling disappointed and troubled. In highly valuing the friendship, you might feel a need to reach out, to somehow intervene to steer your mate in the right direction. If this fails, the friendship can become frayed. In worst-case scenarios you might feel a need to reconsider

the friendship altogether. Some of us are starting to have, if we haven’t already, that awkward feeling when following news involving President Donald Trump’s America. The United States is a great friend of Australia. We’ve fought and struggled together too often to be anything else. It is also a friendship we dearly want to keep. Our powerful friend not only offers us trade, entertainment and a sense of global solidarity, but also critical security. We’re mates from way back and we’ll stick together if we can. But what we constantly see in reports beaming from the free world’s benchmark nation on our television screens does little to make many of

EDITORIAL By Dean Lawson

us feel comfortable. Our close mate seems to enjoy, more than ever, sparring – physically, economically, politically, spiritually, internationally – often coupled with a holier-than-thou, damn-the-consequences attitude. While acknowledging we can’t take too much moral high ground considering our own chequered history, this type of sensibility, with all its belligerence, arrogance, muck, money and

guns, falls short of making a lot of sense to many progressive Americans, let alone Australians. There is a sense that while Australia and the United States have similarities, we’re far from the same. Is the uncomfortable perception simply reflective of President Trump at the head of the animal, how the international media reports what’s happening, or is it something more? Should we follow the American lead or reach out with a quiet suggestion in the ear of the ‘big fellah’. Would that do any good anyway? Again, we’re talking about a lifelong and critically important mate here and like it or not we’re getting carried along on whatever ride they

are taking. Are we too close? Or is the relationship right? We might seem a world away from all this in the Wimmera, but what happens at international tables and the tables of our friends has a direct impact on us all and it is something to consider. Much of the turmoil involving governance, human rights and international relationships often comes back to mutual respect and a willingness for diplomacy. A good mate understands this. Shaking hands might be a no-no during the pandemic, but we could certainly do with a couple of big meaningful ones at the moment.

SIR, – I am not surprised Horsham Rural City Council failed to receive the $3-million government sports grant for a splash park on the Wimmera River. The grants commission would have realised safety issues with toddlers near the river and that the proposed area went under a metre of water when flooded. The council would have been better off putting it at the Horsham Botanic Garden workshop and house site. That way, an existing play area and toilets could have been used with no flood issues. What an opportunity missed. As a Horsham Aquatic Centre management committee member, I am disappointed the council overlooked aquatic centre plans for a water fun park. A big slide and water splash pool would have attracted a lot more tourists to Horsham than this toddler pool at the river ever would. We were shovel ready, had it planned for years and approved by council and only waiting for finance. I cannot understand why the council does not

finish projects. Horsham Aquatic Centre has been promised the big slide water fun park and us geriatrics have been waiting for the thermal pool and associated change rooms for years. Horsham Police Paddock is supposed to be a major recreational area but put on hold, Dudley Cornell Park remains unfinished and what is happening with the council depot site? We also keep hearing of work needed for upgrading railway crossings and pedestrian underpasses and so on. Horsham Town Hall is nowhere near finished – the acoustics in both rooms are shocking. There is still a floor to go in the main hall and what happened to the big screen in the main hall that was going to be looked at again? Horsham would progress greatly with these projects finished. A ring road and second bridge surely should be a major priority before spending millions on the river. I hope a new council has the same opinion. Neville McIntyre McKenzie Creek

Yarriambiack calls for candidates Yarriambiack municipal leaders are urging nominees to come forward before a cut-off date in the lead-up to October local government elections. Yarriambiack Shire Council chief executive Jessie Holmes is reminding residents the nomination deadline for Victoria’s local government elections is September 22. She said running for council was a great opportunity to represent the municipality and have a say on its future. “There are some really important dates and necessary steps to take in order to become a candidate for local govern-

ment elections and we want to make sure you know them all,” she said. “Councillors are elected for a four-year term and elections will go ahead in October via a postal ballot.” Candidates must complete compulsory candidate training online before September 16. The training, introduced this year, is a new requirement that all candidates must complete before nominating and provide proof to the VEC before making a nomination.

group of nine young leaders from Resilient Ararat project’s founding schools have met online via Zoom to start work on a mental-health campaign.

Ararat College captains Jack Ward and Bri Hughes led the session, helping participating grade-five and six students develop key messages around gratitude, empathy and mindfulness. Central Grampians Local Learning and Employment Network Resilient Ararat project officer Jane Moriarty said project leaders were preparing messages for presentation during Mental Health Week in October. “We are not giving away too much at the moment, but we have been working hard on an upcoming campaign to create community conversations about mental health and to help breakdown the associated stigma,” she said. “Eleven of our local schools have been implementing The Resilience Project’s curriculum, so we thought it would be a great opportunity to sit down with some of their senior students and brainstorm the ways we can increase community knowledge of GEM – gratitude, empathy and mindfulness – and promote positive mental-health strategies. “It was amazing to see these young leaders join forces to come up with some important messages they want to get out to the community. “The campaign we have developed will provide them with a fun and interesting way to do that.” Ms Moriarty said October’s campaign would help reinforce the messages shared by The Resilience

demic when looking after our mental wellbeing is vital. “That’s why we have developed a campaign that will really try to build on our work with The Resilience Project and encourage people to make self-care a priority.” Bri said students were excited about the project. “We really enjoyed having the opportunity to work with fellow young

leaders and develop messages that will have a lasting, positive impact on our community,” she said. “As part of the Resilience Project’s curriculum, we are exposed to a lot of useful mental-health strategies. “We are excited this campaign will give us a way to share these messages with other people in our community who could benefit from them.”

Northern Grampians Shire Council has reopened its customer-service offices in Stawell and St Arnaud. The centres have opened in response to the Department of Health and Human Services reconsidering council restrictions in regional Victoria. Regional stage-three restrictions are scheduled to end on September 13, but the council was allowed to open its offices with density limitations on Monday. Stawell Town Hall office is open from 8.30am to 4.45pm, Monday to Friday, with a limit of five small groups and patrons allowed to stand on the marked areas of the floor. The St Arnaud office will be open from 9am to 4pm, Monday to Friday, with a limit of six people in total allowed in the reception area at any time. The council expects and will enforce physical-distancing protocols of 1.5 metres between people in customer-service areas and provide hand sanitiser at entry and exit areas. Clear plastic screens will remain in place at customer-service desks to ensure the safety of staff and community. During lockdown, council staff employed through the state-funded Working for Victoria program have given customer-service areas a painting and carpet makeover. Council chief executive Liana Thompson said the change to stagethree restrictions was a welcome dispensation for the shire community. “We encourage everyone where possible to call the In It Together hotline on 5358 8700 because it might save them a trip to see our centres and also help us keep the numbers down to a manageable and safe level in our shire buildings,” she said.

Communities take lead D

BY DYLAN DE JONG

evelopments in Yarriambiack towns are building traction, with the handover of land marking a milestone for a future community hub and a start date in sight for a retail precinct project.

Community leaders at Beulah are making headway with the land transfer – the first major step in plans to build a supermarket and general store. Beulah community has persevered for almost a year with a convenience store that was established as an interim solution in October last year after the town’s only general store burnt down. Meanwhile at Rupanyup, a start date to build a retail precinct is just weeks away as leaders await approval for a building permit from Yarriambiack Shire Council. Council leaders backing the developments said progress on both projects was testament to the persistence and resilience of the rural communities to push forward during tough times. Enterprise Rupanyup, a community-organised consortium set up to steer the project, has awarded Onley Holdings from Donald as tender for the job. Enterprise Rupanyup chair Malcolm Uhe said he expected construction to start in September. “It’s going to be done in three stages. We will build the supermarket first,” he said. “We need to ensure what the supermarket can offer the town is viable, so we don’t have to travel to Horsham, Minyip or Murtoa for our shopping. “This will allow us to further develop the precinct and a community space with three retail outlets as well.” The State Government committed

“Now that we have the land, we have a few plans written up and a quote for a shed. It’s going to be a community store and we hope it could have a news agency, a supermarket and giftware.”

Interim

The community has relied on Beulah Convenience Store for groceries and general supplies. “Having the interim store has helped, it’s been great for elderly people who can’t travel,” Mrs Turnball said. “But, it’s not stocking everything, so people still need to travel. “We’re also missing takeaway food as well. Since COVID-19 hit in March, the pub has also been shut.” Yarriambiack chief executive Jessie Holmes said the council would support the co-operative in any grant applications to state and federal governments. “The community is very realistic about what outcomes they want from this project. They’ve got a good sense of scale of proportion and what the community needs,” she said. “After they unfortunately lost the store in a fire last year, the fact they were able to rally so quickly and get a new store open within 10 weeks was incredible.” Ms Holmes said progress on developments and successful government funding applications across Yarriambiack Shire was reflective of the community’s hard work and persistence. “There’s so much going on in Rupanyup too – now they’ve over $1-million for the recreation reserve, they plan to put a visitor information centre opposite the silo, they’ve a number of projects around housing as well,” she said. “It’s such a good little town, they just epitomise that ‘get in and get it done’ attitude.”

SACRIFICE: West Wimmera Health Service associate nurse unit manager Kirsten Nesbit will shave her hair for two worthy causes on Friday.

Shaving for ‘sight’ Employees at West Wimmera Health Service are gearing up to forgo their head and facial hair to help raise money for state-of-theart medical equipment. The appeal will help the service raise money for its ‘See How We Can Help You See’ campaign. Associate nurse unit manager Kirsten Nesbit, social worker Jay Sreekumar and chief executive Ritchie Dodds have agreed to shave their head or facial hair on Friday to help raise money towards an optical biometer for visiting ophthalmologist Dr Mark Chehade to accurately measure and detect eye problems. “The service, with the community, has raised $44,578 towards our goal of $70,000 and we are hoping to raise another $3000 by participating in this shave,” Mr Dodds said. Ms Nesbit said a new optical

$500,000 to the project in 2018, with another $400,000 sourced from organisations including the council and Rupanyup-Minyip Community Bank. Mr Uhe said the retail precinct was one of many steps Rupanyup was taking to strengthen its sustainability. “We have no shops at the moment. This is the first step in reactivating the retail footprint of the town,” he said. “In terms of tourism, we get a lot of people through town, but they’ve got nowhere to stop and spend their money.” Mr Uhe said he believed developments such as the retail precinct were rudimentary in securing a long-term future for rural communities. “Hopefully it will attract people to live here, that’s the aim of smaller towns, to keep your population viable,” he said. Earlier this year Beulah Co-operative Limited formed to start concept plans for a precinct that would replace the town’s old general store. At the council’s August ordinary meeting, councillors agreed to move a motion to transfer a parcel of council-owned land after it was requested by the co-operative in March. Beulah residents leading the plans now hope to establish a community owned and operated general store and supermarket at the centrally-located site. Co-operative secretary Jenni Turnball said draft plans would be completed while the group sought community shareholders and government funding. “We will have to have a big drive to get people to buy shares,” she said. “It’s going to managed by a group of volunteer directors and the idea is to sell shares to members and all shareholders will own the store.

They are among 90 regional areas to benefit from the telecommunications company continuing its roll-out of the new-generation services. Telstra regional general manager Steve Tinker said the roll-out would continue into more Victorian areas in the coming months. “We’ve reached a milestone with our 450th Telstra 5G site onair in Victoria and we’re reaching more and more people with the next generation of mobile technology,” he said. There are now more than 1500 Telstra 5G sites on-air across selected areas of 53 Australian cities and towns.

Stawell Racing Club has donated $600 to support important community programs operating in the region. The club has provided $300 to both Stawell Neighborhood House for its Second Bite food program and Stawell Interchurch Council’s Food Bank. Racing club president Ian Nicholson said the club had wanted to make a contribution to valuable community programs. “In these times, we felt these two programs that assist the less fortunate and vulnerable in our community were very worthy recipients,” he said. “We hope these funds help both organisations continue their valuable work. We are grateful for the support the local community gives our racing club and we wanted to try to help in a small way.” Stawell Neighborhood House coordinator Christine Dearman, who oversees the Second Bite program, said the money donated by the club would go towards buying much-needed supplies.

“In these uncertain times more community members are reliant on services such as our Second Bite program,” she said. “We partner with local businesses to provide food for our most vulnerable community members, also providing dignity bags for women and men escaping domestic violence.” Stawell Interchurch Council Welfare president Jo Bertram thanked the club for its donation. “The money will help us to continue our mission of helping the more vulnerable members of our community with food, vouchers and support during these challenging times,” she said. Mr Nicholson said the horse-racing industry continued to operate during the COVID-19 pandemic, albeit without patrons, with Racing Victoria and Country Racing Victoria having protocols and procedures in place to deal with the public health emergency. “There has been a tremendous effort

www.theweeklyadvertiser.com.au

from our staff, Racing Victoria, Country Racing and the industry as a whole to use best practice to deal with COVID-19 and ensure we continue to race,” he said. “It has been difficult for the club to have to host our cup meeting at Easter, along with the last two meetings of the season, without having the community take part, but we take consolation in that we were able to have those race meetings.” Mr Nicholson said the racing industry had confirmed the club’s first race meeting for the new season would be a Saturday Christmas Race Day on December 5. “In recognition of disruption to the season for our members we are offering a 50 percent refund for the 2019-2020 season and discounted membership of only $20 for the new season,” he said.

Fuel project boosts positivity BY SARAH MATTHEWS

inyip Progress Association leaders hope to have the town’s new fuel outlet up and running by December to make the most of a busy harvest period.

The association has led the charge for a new fuel site in the town since 2018, after BP Advance sold Minyip’s only petrol station to Lowes Petroleum. Project leaders celebrated several project milestones late last month, including final settlement of a land transfer for the new fuel site. Association secretary Marie Milgate said another highlight was the signing of a 10-year agreement with Bonney Energy. Bonney Energy will supply diesel, AdBlue diesel and unleaded petrol at a secure, unmanned site in Mill Street. “Fuel will be stored in above-ground tanks and separate bowsers will be available for each fuel type,” Mrs Milgate said. “Fuel will be available 24 hours a day. Payment will be by card only and the system will be monitored remotely.”

“Once we are out of COVID-19 restrictions I expect tourism to increase, bringing additional visitors to our community. The flow-on effect to local traders will be immeasurable”

– Marie Milgate

Mrs Milgate said the agreement with Bonney Energy would have several long-lasting benefits for Minyip. She said the company would pay a base rental fee to the progress association, along with a turnover fee based on the number of litres sold each month. “The turnover fee will include agricultural sales to farmers within a 30-kilometre radius of Minyip,” she said. “We are hopeful of pulling in the farming accounts and will have ease of access for B-doubles to use the fuel stop. If we are up and running by December, we will certainly capture the harvest traffic and contractors in the district.” Mrs Milgate said the association took

on the project after recognising how the absence of a fuel station would affect Minyip and district community, including the agricultural industry and regional businesses. She said the first step was to secure a site, with the association buying a section of land from GrainCorp for a nominal amount. “The site is a disused grain and fertiliser storage area with good access,” she said. Mrs Milgate said full engineering drawings for access roads, hard stand areas and drainage had been completed. The installation will incorporate a state-of-the-art interceptor system to meet Environment Protection Authority requirements for removal of any fuel spillage. Yarriambiack Shire Council awarded the project tender to S & R Engineering and Construction for $128,799 last week. Project manager Ray White said work could start within the next month and would hopefully be completed by October or November. Bonney Energy will then install its equipment.

Mr White said although uncertainty surrounded when freight would arrive from Germany, project leaders hoped the depot could be commissioned by Christmas to capture part of the harvest season. The association secured project funding from a range of sources, including a $101,000 Federal Government Drought Community Support Program grant; $20,000 from the Stronger Communities Program for a SPEL Puraceptor system; a Rupanyup Minyip Community Bank grant; pledges and donations from the Minyip community; and a contribution from the association itself. Mrs Milgate said the committee was excited to see the project progress. “Having the unmanned fuel station will only enhance the town’s development and means that everyone can access fuel locally without having to go out of town,” she said. “Once we are out of COVID-19 restrictions I expect tourism to increase, bringing additional visitors to our community. The flow-on effect to local traders will be immeasurable.”

FIVE-DAY forecast

Candidate withdraws Riverside’s Susie Relouw will no longer run for Horsham Rural City Council at October local government elections. The businesswoman, electoral officer and mother of five announced her intention to nominate for council in December last year, with a ‘consult, listen, act’ platform. Mrs Relouw told The Weekly Advertiser on Friday she had decided not to run. “As for everyone, COVID-19 has changed my life and my plans,” she said. People can nominate for local government elections from September 17. Nominees must complete mandatory local government candidate training. People can visit www.vec.vic. gov.au for more information. All council elections will be run by post, with voters to receive ballot packs from early October.

Field days pulled from 2021 events

ncertainty surrounding the COVID-19 pandemic has forced organisers of the region’s iconic Wimmera Machinery Field Days to abandon next year’s event.

The absence of the field days from the Wimmera calendar, which had been scheduled for March 2, 3 and 4, will be its first in 58 years. Field days manager Murray Wilson said the event committee had cancelled the event based on the continuing pandemic and uncertainty surround restrictions for large-scale community events, current lockdowns and closed borders. “The Wimmera Machinery Field Days was the only major agricultural field days in Australia in 2020 and organisers were looking forward to it being the first major field days to start up again in 2021,” he said. “Disappointingly, due to the fluidity and ongoing uncertainties with coronavirus, this now won’t be the case for the Wimmera.” Mr Wilson said Wimmera field days rated as Australia’s largest broadacre-focused agricultural event. “We host more than 100 exhibitors from interstate as well as many company reps from across Australia,” he said. “With the current interstate travel restrictions in place and an unknown timeline for when border crossings and interstate travel will be freed up, there is a certain pressure on decision-making. “The Wimmera Machinery Field Days is such a large-scale event we are not in position to leave decision-making until the last minute.” Mr Wilson said estimates were that the field days generally had close to $300-million dollars of new agricultural machinery on display at Longerenong’s Wimmera Events Centre site. “Estimates are also that up to $50-million dollars in trade happens over the three days. The

field days inject several million dollars into the regional economy each year. There will be hundreds of local businesses who in 2021 will not be able to receive much-needed revenue,” he said. “This has been an unfortunate decision for the committee to make, knowing it would disappoint all our exhibitors, staff, contractors and suppliers, visitors, volunteers, sponsors and community groups who rely on this important annual event. “Just as importantly, it will be a big blow to all our regional farmers and ag-industry professionals who benefit from the field days who will now not be able to share information, view the latest products, learn about the newest farming technology and most importantly celebrate agriculture in the region.” Mr Wilson said a priority had always been to ensure the health and safety of exhibitors, visiting patrons and the hundreds of volunteers involved in the field days. “What this will do is put us in a position to be well prepared for the 2022 field days, with a responsible COVID-19 safety plan and risk-management framework in place based on the latest advice,” he said. “This will enable us to build an even bigger, safer and more impressive event.” The Wimmera Machinery Field Days is a member of the Association of Agricultural Field Days of Australasia and the Ag Field Days arm of Victorian Agricultural Society and will continue to work with these groups in lobbying the state and federal governments for ongoing support. The Federal Government has announced a $2.7-million support package for field days across Australia. The development follows an announcement of financial support for agricultural shows earlier this year.

ONLINE: Wimmera Legacy president Dr Barbara Wellington with husband John, left, and secretary Neville Smith.

Wimmera Legacy week goes online Wimmera Legacy has joined Ararat Legacy and other branches in asking the community to continue to support its service to war widows despite coronavirus-imposed fundraising restrictions. This year’s Badge Week is continuing in a revamped format until Saturday and has the theme: Little Badge, Big Impact. Badge Week is the major fundraiser for the non-profit organisation, which operates without government help. Wimmera Legacy supports more than 150 widows across the Wimmera and southern Mallee. Last year’s Wimmera Legacy Badge Week appeal raised $25,000. President Barbara Welling-

ton said because legatees and volunteers were unable to canvas for donations in the streets or visit premises in Horsham and surrounding towns, people could support the appeal in any of three ways: • Online donations through the Wimmera Legacy website home page by clicking on the ‘Donate to Legacy’ icon and following the directions. All donations from people with Wimmera and southern Mallee postcodes will be forwarded to Wimmera Legacy. • Direct payment to Wimmera Legacy bank account BSB 633000, account number 141837351 with payments marked Badge Week. • Merchandise usually offered during Badge Week

can be ordered by emailing: admin@wimmeralegacy.com. au. Items for sale include badges from $2 to $50, $20 bears, keyrings, wristbands and pens. The national organisation, formed almost a century ago promising support to the wives of deceased veterans during hardship and grief, continues to rely on the generosity of the community for continued support. “We know this is a difficult time for many people, but care for our widows continues and Badge Week sales and donations help cover costs,” Dr Wellington said. People seeking further information can call secretary Neville Smith on 0427 821 510.

Fond farewell for a footy legend T

BY DYLAN DE JONG

he Wimmera sky became a picture of blue, white and black for family man Ken ‘Dasher’ Milgate at the weekend in a tribute to a lifetime dedicated to Minyip football and community. Hundreds of friends and relatives joined the Milgate family on Saturday to celebrate the life of the ‘football legend’. The family encouraged people unable to attend a service due to COVID-19 funeral restrictions to release a Minyip-Murtoa Football Netball Club-themed balloon at the sound of a full-time siren at 5pm. The 92-year-old died on August 23 after battling cancer. He is survived by his wife Alma, children Colin, Phillip, Glenda, Wayne, Donna and Robyn, 16 grandchildren and 15 greatgrandchildren. Mr Milgate’s daughter Donna Cameron described her father as an allround family man who never missed a moment of Minyip and Murtoa football. “Everyone has lost him – he was such an iconic part of footy. To get to that age and having so many young people recognise him and love him, that’s an honour,” she said. “Every message we’ve received since his passing has described him as a legend, icon, a family man – I felt really proud he was my dad.” Dasher was just a teenager in 1944 when he picked up the ball for the first time. That moment sparked a fire in him and he fervently set off on a life dedicated to the game and developed an

MEMORIES: Ken ‘Dasher’ Milgate, left, with coach Ronnie Wearmouth the moment Minyip clinched Wimmera Football League’s 1991 premiership over Stawell at Horsham City Oval. The victory was the first of a trifecta of premierships. even deeper love for Minyip Football Club. Mrs Cameron said that drive for his community bled into his children and the younger Milgate generations who all support the ‘Mighty Burras’. “He just loved footy and was community orientated – all his siblings were the same and were heavily involved in different community organisations and clubs,” she said. “When Dad went off the board in 2016, I took over and my kids play for the Burras too.” Mr Milgate was a long-standing president and board director, premiership player, volunteer and also played

a key role when old rivals Minyip and Murtoa merged to form the Wimmera Football League powerhouse team in 1995. Minyip-Murtoa Football Netball Club recognises Dasher as a club life member and ‘league legend’. “The community will remember him for all the work he’s done, without being asked, and all the committees he was on and his amazing input and knowledge into all those organisations,” Mrs Cameron said.

Life on the farm

While many remember him as the heart and soul of Minyip and Murtoa

football, Mrs Cameron affectionately remembers her childhood on the family farm at Boolite. Mr and Mrs Milgate were happily married for 63 years and lived on the farm before moving into Minyip earlier this year. “Dad was always working. I remember him wearing shorts in the summer with his knobbly knees and his muscular arms,” Mrs Cameron said. “He was always out – he was either working on the farm or he was off to footy or cricket. I played netball in town and he always took us kids to games. He just loved being at the footy. Mum and Dad would never

miss any of the kids or grandkids’ games.” Mrs Cameron said her father was a kind-hearted family man who would give his time to anyone. “He just got on with the job, did what he did – he was a quiet, gentle bloke and just loved people,” she said. “He loved Mum so much – he was always putting people before himself.” The Weekly Advertiser editor Dean Lawson, who covered Wimmera Football League action in depth as a journalist for more than two decades, spoke glowingly of Mr Milgate. “As president of his beloved Minyip Royal Blues he was forthright and fiercely loyal, but at the same time funny and always willing to see the lighter side of anything serious or controversial,” he said. “On more than one occasion when called by the press for a comment on ‘what was happening?’ in the club he would respond, obviously grinning madly at the other end of the line, ‘You’re after a bit of bulldust are you? I’ll see what I can do’.” Mr Lawson recalled when Mr Milgate helped lead his club to premiership victory. “Dasher was a fascinating figurehead of Minyip footy club at a time when the Royal Blues marched from the bottom to the top of the Wimmera Football League ladder in one season. It captured the imagination of the competition, setting a refreshing new benchmark,” he said. “It was hard not to like him and I fondly remember the half-time catchups during Minyip and later MinyipMurtoa club home games.”

Limit on student placements BY DYLAN DE JONG

immera health service leaders are concerned a state directive to reduce the number of students attending placements during the COVID-19 pandemic could result in a future staff shortage.

Department of Health and Human Services, DHHS, has directed health services across Victoria to reduce placements across all healthcare areas including nursing and allied health. Under the directive, Melbourne students are also no longer permitted to travel to regional and rural Victoria for placements. Rural Northwest Health and Edenhope and District Memorial Hospital leaders have concerns the directive might slow the number of students completing their degree this year. Rural Northwest Health education and research manager Dr Kaye Knight said aged-care and urgent care, the health service’s primary wards, were off-limits to nursing student placements under the directive. She said students within regional and rural Victoria could still complete a placement in the hospital’s acute ward. “We’ve certainly been seriously affected as far as students coming in,” she said. “We were already not accepting placements from Melbourne, but are still accepting our local students from Federation University. “Students can still get a good experience in acute, but aged-care is certainly the core business for us.” Dr Knight said she expected a smaller pool of nursing graduates to be available to the health service when recruit-

ing started in the new year. “This might delay the completion of their courses, which will have a direct effect on whether they are registered to practise as nurses,” she said. Dr Knight said graduate nurses from Melbourne and other metropolitan centres were often attracted to RNH after completing a placement. “If they have good experience there’s potential for employment – a lot of the nurses we employ have done a placement with us previously,” she said. “This is really important for the small rural health services because a lot of the students will often put the large services as their first preference for pursuing a position. A small rural health service has to work harder to get people to consider it.”

Requirements

Dr Knight said a requirement for nursing students to complete their degree or diploma was to undergo hundreds of hours of placement. “There is a requirement as part of their course that they must do a minimum number of hours each year,” she said. “In the third year they do a significant number of clinical practice hours.” Health leaders are uncertain how long the directive to all student placements across Victoria will remain. Edenhope and District Memorial Hospital chief executive Andrew Saunders said his health service was affected by losing placements from both Melbourne and Adelaide. “We might see a flow-on effect in future years if we can’t get nurses through their training,” he said. “But the workforce is pretty stable.

CURTAILED: Rural Northwest Health education and research manager Dr Kaye Knight is pictured with third-year LaTrobe University Bendigo student Kaleb Grant. Kaleb, who studies occupational therapy and is based in Mildura, is completing a four-week placement. We’re very lucky that we have a good local contingent of nurses. “When we open things back up again, we’ll all have a look at students and getting them out to do their placements.” Wimmera Health Care Group education manager Bernie Taylor said the Horsham-based health service was still taking on as many placements as possible under the directive. “We’re taking students mainly from our local providers such as Federation University and ACU,” she said. “The directive has limited our capacity, but we’re still taking up to 90

percent of our placements. We look at it by a case-by-case basis. We do a COVID-19 screening as we do with every worker or contractor that comes through the organisation.” Ms Taylor said the health service would continue to take on placements to shore-up its workforce. “If students don’t get their clinical placement – that’s a core component of their degree – then they can’t graduate at the end of the year,” she said. “That then limits the number of nurses that will be available for the organisation to employ.”

Biodiversity goes online The theme of the region’s unique Wimmera Biodiversity Seminar starting tomorrow will be ‘From little things…’. The seminar, in its 23rd year, will be an online event due to COVID-19 restrictions but will again include a program of presenters covering a variety of topics. The ‘From little things…’ theme is based on the tiny aspects of biodiversity and environmental ecosystems such as insects, fungi and micro-organisms, but also children who will ultimately inherit environment-management responsibilities. Seminar committee member La Vergne Lehmann said the event had, similar to many other events, become an online program this year. “We are thrilled that we have managed to continue this long running event, albeit in a slightly different way this year,” she said. The seminar will involve a series of webinars on the four Thursdays in September, with a bonus seminar in October. People can register for all five or just the ones they are interested in. Ms Lehmann said the free event started at 11am tomorrow with three speakers, Julie Andrew from Stawell Urban Landcare, Ange Turrell from Jallukar Landcare and Matilda Venn, a teenage amateur orchidologist, highlighting the work of volunteers.

Swooping season

he Wimmera’s new army of recreational walkers and cyclists will soon be confronting a familiar hazard with the onset of spring.

As the region ventures towards warmer conditions, so too do we venture into swooping season. Australian magpies and masked lapwings, also known as plovers, are usually a friendly and welcome aspect of parkland and back yards. But they can get grumpy this time of year as they become over-protective of hatchlings. The Department of Environment, Land, Water and Planning has reminded Victorians of the impending swooping time and has already had reports of early activity in north-western Victoria. Magpies and plovers swoop humans and their dogs to defend their young for the six to eight weeks between when they hatch and when they leave the nest. DELWP senior wildlife management officer Amanda Ashton said swooping occurred every year during breeding season and was largely a defensive manoeuvre. “For some species, including magpies, this is carried out primarily by males; swooping birds

account for less than 10 percent of the bird population,” she said. “Being swooped by a territorial bird is no fun, but this is just normal bird behaviour. “The best way to avoid being swooped is to avoid the area altogether, though this isn’t always possible. If you do end up in an area where there is a swooping bird, try to protect your head and eyes and move quickly through the area without running.”

Make a report

People can report a swooping incident by any species of bird by marking its location on Victoria’s swooping-bird map online at delwp. vic.gov.au/environment-and-wildlife/wildlife/ swooping-birds. Magpies and other native birds are protected in Victoria under the Wildlife Act 1975. Under the Act it is an offence to kill, take control of or harm wildlife in Victoria. Penalties apply. Tips to avoid being swooped: Know your swooping hotspots, avoid the area, move quickly, but do not run, cover your head with a hat, helmet or umbrella and consider drawing a pair of ‘eyes’ on the back of your hat or helmet, do not harass or feed wildlife.

PROGRESS: Northern Grampians mayor Murray Emerson checks in on Stawell’s North Park development project. Picture: PAUL CARRACHER

Yes? Then we want to hear from you! The Victorian Government is seeking expressions of interest from business and community members to join our state’s nine Regional Partnerships.

January timeline for project finish Beyond the building development, stormwater drainage and moving of the goalposts on the oval are the next steps in the project. The council will cordon off North Park in coming months and will notify park users and nearby residents in advance of specific work dates. Northern Grampians mayor Murray Emerson said he was pleased with the progress and had been regularly checking in on the project. “It is wonderful to see the roof work being finalised as it gives us a very clear idea of what the building will look like in its setting and also means that we are nearing lock-up stage,” he said. “Hopefully there are no further delays to the project and the community and user groups can begin to enjoy this amazing facility in early 2021.”

We are looking for experienced and emerging leaders from a diverse range of backgrounds to provide strategic advice on regional economic, social and environmental issues, to work with us to create local solutions, and to make it happen on the ground. Applications close on Thursday 1 October 2020. For more information and to apply, visit rdv.vic.gov.au/regional-partnerships

January is the new completion date for work on a multi-million-dollar North Park Multipurpose Clubroom Development project in Stawell. Northern Grampians Shire Council has reported the project is about a month behind schedule because of the COVID-19 pandemic and inclement weather. But council leaders stressed the project was ‘progressing well’. Building construction is taking shape with external cladding and windows set to go on clubrooms after completion of a room. Installation of air-conditioning, water and electricity services are also set to start to allow the building to progress to lock-up stage within the next three months. Early electrical work will start next month, with new power supply to the building coming from Newington Road.

You’ll join forces with established and respected regional leaders to assist government on priorities that respond to local challenges and opportunities. This is your invitation to help us ensure that Victoria continues to be home to Australia’s most vibrant and successful regional economies and communities.

Step-parents’ rights

it’s

any children within the Wimmera are being raised by a birth parent and a stepmother or stepfather because one or both of their parents have re-partnered.

These step-parents sometimes fulfill the role of a parent in terms of the care of the child but are not recognised as a parent by law. Under Australian family law, there is a presumption of ‘equal shared parental responsibility’ for birth parents that continues even after a family separates. Step-parents are defined as a relative of the child, but parental rights are not automatically extended to them. Instead, there are legal steps required before you can do things like authorise medical care and sign school forms. An application for parenting orders is an option to consider. This is a set of orders made by the family court or federal circuit court about the parenting arrangements for a child. These are usually made with the agreement of both biological parents of the child and might outline things such as who the child will live with, time spent with each parent, allocation of parental responsibility and other aspects of care. If your partner dies and you want to continue to have parental responsibilities for your stepchild, you can also apply for a parenting order. This application might be strengthened if your partner has included a clause in their will appointing you as legal guardian of the child on their death. If the surviving birth parent is incapable of caring for the child and has a history of child abuse or family violence you are more likely to succeed

THE LAW with Patrick Smith, LL.B. (Hons) B. Int. St., B.Ec., GDLP in obtaining parenting responsibility for the child. However, if the other biological parent is willing and able to provide care for the child, it is likely the orders for parental responsibility would be made in their favour. This is because the court’s main consideration is to facilitate a meaningful relationship between a child and their biological parents. Adoption appears to some step-parents to be an attractive option. However, adoption will only be allowed by step-parents in exceptional circumstances – such as the where both biological parents are deceased. This can be a difficult and lengthy process, with parenting orders generally used instead. This is an area of family law that can be difficult to navigate, but lawyers can provide advice on your specific circumstances. • Patrick Smith is the principal of O’Brien & Smith Lawyers.

Recycling reminder in West Wimmera West Wimmera Shire Council is reminding residents to keep non-recyclable items out of their recycling bins in response to an audit on the service. The audit found people were placing non-approved waste

REWARDING: Former Victorian Premier Denis Napthine is encouraging people to consider becoming a foster carer.

products into their recycling bins. West Wimmera Shire Council’s kerbside collection contractor Wimmera Mallee Waste has periodic audits to record contents and identify any non-approved recyclables or hazardous material

that might be present. The council has stressed it will wear costly penalties if residents fail to place items in the correct bin. Penalties will also apply if a recyclables contamination rate is more than 10 percent.

Push for foster carers Former Victorian Premier Denis Napthine is leading a regional campaign to boost the number of foster carers across the Wimmera and southwest Victoria. Dr Napthine, who was a long-term foster carer with wife Peggy, is calling on people from all walks of life to consider foster care. Called Share Your Care, the campaign aims to recruit new families and individuals to support children in their own communities who need a place to stay. “It takes a village to raise a child. We as a community have really got to be prepared to look after all the children from our community if they can’t safely stay with their own family,” Dr Napthine said. “We have to put our arms around them and that’s why foster care – Share your Care – is so important. It is not without its challenges, but bringing a big smile to the face of a child in need is a priceless joy. “Being a foster carer is one of the most joyful and rewarding things anyone can do.” Dr Napthine, who is the campaign’s official ambassador, said carers came from all walks of life and lived in towns, cities, rural townships and isolated farms.

“My wife and I were foster carers for 15 years. We were long-term carers but there is also the option of short-term and medium-term care,” he said. “It’s so rewarding for you as an individual and for your whole family. To see that child safe, secure and loved is fantastic.” Dr Napthine said carers had support from regional agencies and the wider community. “There are professional people who provide advice, assistance and support, as well as financial assistance to make sure that foster carers are not out of pocket,” he said. Dr Napthine said with demand for foster carers exceeding supply, and communities facing new challenges daily, there was no better time to consider becoming a carer. “Our local kids need your help. Need your support. Need your love. So be a foster carer. Share Your Care,” he said. Several agencies across the Wimmera and southwest Victoria are involved in Share Your Care. Dr Napthine has support from several community leaders who have taken on roles of Share Your Care champions. People wanting to find out more can go to website www.shareyourcare.net.au.

Inquiry into food chain

estern Victorian Federal Government politicians Anne Webster and Dan Tehan have welcomed an inquiry into the domestic fresh food and dairy supply chain.

Australian Competition and Consumer Commission is in charge of the three-month inquiry investigating the product flow from the farmgate to the supermarket. The inquiry, which started on Monday, will explore the trail of fresh food such as meat, eggs, fruit and vegetables and seafood. Dr Webster and Mr Tehan said the investigation was to ensure major retailers treated producers fairly. They said the government was committed to fighting for ‘a fair go for our farmers’ and the inquiry was in response to ‘long held’ concerns about bargaining imbalances ‘that currently exist and the misuse, and in some cases the abuse, of this power by some sections of the fresh food supply chain’. They said in a mirror statement: “Our farmers take considerable risks and work incredibly hard to grow the fresh and affordable food we all take for granted. “But there are concerns that once farm produce is harvested or processed and sent off to market, producers have little bargaining power and are at the mercy of the powerful supermarkets when it comes to the price they are paid. “Unfortunately, not all interactions between farmers and the major su-

permarkets are conducted fairly and in good faith and there are bargaining imbalances and other serious issues that need review. “We saw this in 2019 when Coles had to pay more than $5-million to Norco dairy farmers after it was found it had not passed on the full amount of a milk price rise, despite claiming to do so in a marketing campaign.” Dr Webster and Mr Tehan said the inquiry would provide Mallee and Wannon farmers across all food producing sectors with an opportunity to submit evidence, raise concerns and share their own experiences in the domestic marketplace. “We strongly encourage local farmers and agribusinesses to take this opportunity, while it’s available, and contribute to this important inquiry,” they said. “We want to ensure we have the right policies in place – but to do that, we need industry to speak up and tell us what’s really going on. “Importantly, the ACCC has guaranteed the inquiry will accept confidential submissions so farmers can provide evidence of harmful practices without fear of punishment and retribution by the major supermarkets. “This inquiry is not designed to regulate food prices.

Collaboration stitching up connectivity A sewing group for Horsham migrant communities is using technology to meet despite COVID-19 restrictions. Wimmera Settlement Services’ Harmony Sewing Group and Centre for Participation’s English language program collaborated to bring sewing classes online last month. The move was in response to the latest round of stage-three restrictions. Coronavirus restrictions forced the group to cease meeting in March. Phuong Duong Ha led the first session, sharing her mask-making expertise and leading her teacher Cecile Vence and settlement officer Sara Barron through the simple first steps of sewing a face mask. “It was hard to teach online. Everyone had different skills,” Ms Ha said. “Showing how to wind the bobbin

was difficult. But it was also fun.” Harmony Sewing Group, which formed last year, links migrant communities to volunteers with expertise in craft, patchwork, quilters and other creative avenues. Social connection and community cohesion are at the heart of the project. Wimmera Development Association’s Settlement Services along with Horsham-based The Maker’s Gallery and Studio and Wimmera Regional Library joined forces to form the group. Ms Barron said participants were making masks for friends and family, though some might also use it as a project for a microbusiness course through the Centre for Participation. “It’s so important to keep everyone connected as best we can,” she said. “We will continue to run the sewing group online through the Centre

Treat dad this advertising feature Father’s Day SOMETHING FOR DAD: Jordan Parkinson showcases some Father’s Day present ideas available at Priceline Horsham. Business Horsham leaders have encouraged the region’s residents to ‘shop local’ for the special occasion. The organisation is selling Shop Horsham gift cards, which can be redeemed at a wide range of businesses, including Priceline. Picture: PAUL CARRACHER

Keep dollars local usiness Horsham leaders are encouraging people to ‘shop local’ while looking for the perfect Father’s Day gift.

Organisation ambassador Stacey Taig suggested people looking for a gift for their father or father figure consider a Shop Horsham gift card. “Father’s Day is approaching fast and if you are like most of us, you will be struggling to come up with new ideas to show dad just show special he is to you,” she said. “For many, buying a gift for ‘someone who has everything’ is a mind-bending and sometimes exhausting experience.” Business Horsham introduced gift cards several years ago to encourage a ‘shop local’ mentality. “The hope was it would not only provide a

quick and easy offering, but also support our local business community,” Ms Taig said. “The card enables the purchaser to use it at a wide range of participating member businesses. “With most industries represented, dad is sure to find a gift to his liking.” People can buy gift cards online at Business Horsham’s website, businesshorsham.com.au. “Head to the website and click on the ‘contact us’ link,” Ms Taig said. “Staff will ensure your purchase is processed quickly. “A list of member businesses can also be printed from the website to include with your gift. “Our community will thank you for keeping your dollars local and your support could mean the very survival of one or many of our businesses. They look forward to your support.”

Council invite to ‘tune in’ N

orthern Grampians Shire Council will stream its public meetings live online from Monday.

Councillors will host the meeting as a webinar over a Zoom platform and stream it to its YouTube channel for anyone interested in watching proceedings. The move to run meetings as a video conference ensures councillors, council staff and the wider community have protection from the potential spread of COVID-19 by avoiding physically gathering in one place. The public can submit questions with notice to the meetings. The the only change to procedure is that questioners will be provided with a Zoom invitation to attend the webinar to ask their question in real time. Questions without notice remain on hold due to COVID-19 restrictions. At the conclusion of the meeting, a recording will be available on both the council’s YouTube channel and website. Northern Grampians mayor Murray Emerson said he and other members of the council were excited to be adopting new ways of presenting council business. “I won’t say it’s been an easy road figuring out how to adapt to this new normal, but my fellow councillors and I are really looking forward to trying out this technology,” he said. “It’s going to be fantastic for our community to be able to tune into our meetings no matter where they are.”

The new way of ensuring community access to council meetings will be a regular feature, continuing in a postCOVID environment.

Ongoing

Chief executive Liana Thompson said ensuring everyone could access council meetings was part of her action plan of improvement for the organisation. “The council was heavily criticised in the recent community satisfaction survey for community engagement and streaming our meetings online will provide increased transparency and accessibility to council decisionmaking,” she said. “This is about more than protecting the community – it’s also about making sure our residents and ratepayers are included as an integral part of the council process.” The council was successful in an application for grant money to a Rural Councils ICT Infrastructure Program to stream council meetings online. People can view Monday’s council meeting livestream at www.ngshire. vic.gov.au/council-meetings and by following prompts. Alternatively they can tune in via the council’s YouTube channel five minutes before the scheduled meeting start time of 12.30pm. People can submit a question with notice for the upcoming council meeting online at www.ngshire.vic.gov.au/ council-meetings and by filling out a questions with notice online form.

Cross-border kindness prevails A South Australian cabinetmaker’s donation to Wimmera students who live along the state’s border has been described as a ‘random act of kindness’. COVID-19 impacts to cross-border communities inspired Bordertown cabinetmaker Jordan Brown and brother Dylan Secomb to handcraft toy-making kits for Victorian students. The students, who live in West Wimmera municipality and attend South Australia’s Frances Primary School, were forced into remote learning last week. The donation came during an eightday period when South Australian authorities closed their borders to all but senior secondary students and some farmers until Friday last week. School principal Joyce Dinan said Mr Brown’s donation was a positive boost for students during a stressful time. “Jordan, who I have never met before, sent the school the wooden toy kits. There’s a bus, truck, limo, jet and a car,” she said. “He drilled all the holes in them, included a box of screws and even provided a little screwdriver for the kids to put these little toys together.” Mrs Dinan said more than half of her students lived in Victoria and the temporary hard border closures separated them from their peers. “The kids were quite distressed – these are kids who have grown up together and it was a really tough time for the community,” she said. “This donation was a random act of kindness – it’s restored some hope in the world for everyone and trust in the local community.”

KEEPING BUSY: Frances Primary School yearthree student Gus Sambell, from Benayeo in West Wimmera Shire, made his own toy truck out of a wood kit that was donated to his school.

Mr Brown, who was contacted by a former teacher at the school, said he was grateful he could support the students during a tough time. “It is definitely stressful for the young kids. It’s been really tough for a lot of border families,” he said. “It was nice to have the opportunity to do something positive, to help out and just provide an avenue to make a difference.”

Mr Brown said he hoped providing a hands-on activity would stimulate creativity at a time when students were stuck at home. He said he believed the relaxation of border closures was a ‘sensible move’. “People who live on either side have friends on the other side – we don’t normally see border crossing as a big deal,” he said.

Pick-up on steroids

Ram reveals monstrous supercharged V8 1500 TRX model

am Trucks has given its 1500 pick-up a serious shot in the arm with the reveal of the TRX, a Ford F-150 Raptor rival that takes performance in the full-size pickup segment to new heights. The company’s local arm has expressed its interest in the TRX, which would offer Australian buyers a unique proposition with unmatched power and performance for the segment. GoAuto has been told conversations between Ram Trucks Australia and its international counterpart are ‘progressing well’, however no firm timeline has been announced for a local arrival. The headline act of the 1500 TRX is its 6.2-litre supercharged Hemi V8 engine, tuned to produce a fearsome 523kW/880Nm, placing it among the most powerful vehicles on sale in

Australia – none of which take the shape of an off-road pick-up. With power delivered to all four wheels via an eight-speed TorqueFlite automatic transmission, the big hauler is able to rocket from standstill to 60mph, or 97kmh, in just 4.5 seconds, on to 100mph, 161kmh, in 10.5 seconds, and on to a top speed of 190kmh. Five drive modes are available – Auto, Sport, Tow, Snow and Custom – to go with three off-road modes – Mud-Sand, Rock and Baja – while launch control is also available. The 6.2-litre supercharged unit represents a significant bump over the 5.7-litre aspirated V8 in the current local 1500, which produces 291kW/556Nm. In order to achieve its massive outputs, the 1500 TRX uses a new dualpath air induction system that splits air 50:50 between a new, aggressive-

looking hood scoop and the traditional front grille. Air is channelled to a 29-litre air box that filters out dirt, sand, debris and water, with a filtering capacity that Ram claims is unrivalled in the segment and allows for constant and plentiful air flow to maintain optimal power delivery and reliability. Along with the angry-looking hood scoop, the TRX features several other visual enhancements including a larger, flow-through Ram grille badge, functional air curtains outside the LED headlights, bulky fender flares and five-inch dual exhaust tips. The body of the TRX has been widened by eight inches compared with the regular 1500 with a six-inch wider track, while the front axle has been shifted 20mm forward. Changes to the body have been made to accommodate the chunky 35-inch Goodyear Territory all-terrain tyres,

which are available with 18-inch beadlock wheels. Buyers are also able to option fulllength rock rails or powder-coated aluminium running boards, while side and hood graphics are also available. Ram has engineered the TRX to be capable in the rough stuff, with a thicker steel frame, five separate skid plates, two-inch suspension lift, a new independent front suspension system with active damping, beefier control arms and upgraded components, and a new five-link coil rear suspension system with a Dana 60 rear axle. Maximum payload is rated at 594kg, with a maximum braked towing capacity of 3674kg. A low-range transfer case with a 2.64:1 drive ratio and a rear locking differential aid off-road performance. Inside, the TRX is available with three different upholstery options including cloth-vinyl, leather-suede and

leather-suede with red and carbonfibre accents. Front seats offer enhanced bolster support and embroidered logos, while an SRT flat-bottomed steering wheel with paddle shifters adds a sporty flair. Infotainment comes from a 12-inch Uconnect touchscreen system, complemented by a 7.0-inch digital instrument cluster display and 900W, 19-speaker Harman Kardon audio system. Ram says more than 100 advanced safety and security features are available on the TRX, including adaptive cruise control, autonomous emergency braking, blind-spot monitor, surround-view monitor and six airbags. A full suite of Mopar performance parts will also be available. More details on the 1500 TRX and its availability for Australia will become clearer in the future. – Robbie Wallis

Additional power for Prado

he long-rumoured upgrade of the venerable Toyota Prado has come to fruition with the Japanese brand gifting its most popular large SUV similar upgrades to the newly facelifted HiLux and Fortuner siblings, those being more power, more standard equipment and more safety gear.

The extensive upgrades do come at a cost however, with the entry-level GX lifting in price by a hefty $5750 to $59,840 plus on-roads thanks to the omission of the six-speed manual transmission. Above the GX, the GXL has risen $2850 to $66,540, the third-tier VX is up $2390 to $76,380 and the flagship Kakadu now starts from $87,030, up $2804. Power in all Prado variants still comes courtesy of a 2.8-litre turbodiesel four-cylinder mill – the same one that motivates the previously mentioned HiLux and Fortuner duo. As a result, power and torque have jumped by 20kW and 50Nm respectively to 150kW at 3400Nm and 500Nm between 1600-2800rpm. The extra grunt comes courtesy of a new water-cooled, heavy-duty ballbearing turbocharger with a newly developed variable nozzle vane mechanism, while cooling and efficiency have both been stepped up thanks to

MORE GRUNT: Toyota has given the Prado the same 150kW/500Nm mill as HiLux and Fortuner. ‘optimised pistons and piston rings, changes to the cylinder block and head, higher fuel-injection flow rate and the adoption of high-performance materials for the exhaust manifold’. As before, drive is sent permanently to all-four wheels via a six-speed automatic transmission with a low-range transfer case. Despite the power bump, fuel consumption has marginally improved, down to 7.9 litres per 100km on the combined cycle, -0.1L/100km, while CO2 emissions are rated at 209g per

kilometre. Maximum braked towing capacity also holds firm at 3000kg. Inside the cabin, a new-generation multimedia system is standard across the range, offering a new 9.0-inch touchscreen display, Apple CarPlay and Android Auto as well as an enhanced voice recognition system. Rain sensing wipers have also been added while several key features contained in the Toyota Safety Sense system have been upgraded. For starters, the autonomous emergency braking system has been ex-

panded to now detect cyclists in daylight and pedestrians at night – previously only in the day – while the lane departure warning system can now brake one side of the vehicle to help the driver remain in their desired lane. Unlike the extensively reskinned HiLux and Fortuner, the Prado has not been given a styling makeover to match its update with the only visual change being the addition of a new colour to the paint palette, ‘Espresso Brown’.

TOYOTA VALUE ADVANTAGE

According to Toyota Australia sales and marketing vice-president Sean Hanley, the updates to the Prado ensure it will remain one of Australia’s most appealing SUVs, especially as more people begin exploring Australia following the easing of COVID-19 restrictions. “Australians have long appreciated both the strong off-road and on-road capability, comfort and space that LandCruiser Prado offers for extended family adventures beyond the sealed highways,” he said. “With added performance, improved safety and enhanced connectivity, Australians will be able to explore this country in even greater comfort, knowing they will be kept safe and entertained at every stage of the journey.” Standard equipment carried over on the base-model GX includes 17-inch alloy wheels, satellite navigation, keyless smart entry and ignition, airconditioning and a reversing camera while third row seats are available as an optional extra. The Prado has had things largely its own way so far this year, with Toyota shifting 9411 units through the first seven months of this year, enough to make it the best-selling sub-$70,000 large SUV with an 18.8 percent segment share. – Callum Hunter

Honda upgrades Civic Type R

onda’s first update for its ballistic Civic Type R hot hatch will officially hit showrooms from October 1, priced from $54,990 plus on-roads costs – $3000 more than the current version.

HOT HATCH UPDATE: Honda gifts its Civic Type R new suspension, front brakes and better cooling. sponse with the updated set-up combing to shed 2.3kg from the Type R’s unsprung mass. Along with improved stopping power, engine cooling has also been stepped up by a claimed 13 percent thanks to a bigger and thinner grille as well as an updated radiator core. Honda says the new design decreases coolant temperature by up to 10 degrees ‘in high-demand situations’.

To differentiate it from the outgoing model, the new Type R’s lower foglight surrounds feature a new symmetrical design with styling blades, matched at the rear. The aforementioned bigger grille is also a dead giveaway, along with a tweaked front chin designed to counter a slight reduction in downforce caused by the bigger intake. Inside the cabin there is a new

Alcantara-wrapped steering wheel and an updated shifter for the six-speed manual transmission, sporting a new knob and shorter throw. The 7.0-inch infotainment touchscreen system has also been revised while ‘Active Sound Control’ has been fitted to up the aural stakes during spirited driving in Sport and +R driving modes while simultaneously toning things down in Comfort.

As reported by GoAuto in January, the Type R update comprises various mechanical and technical improvements under the skin as well as a few styling tweaks and tech upgrades with the biggest changes laying in the car’s underpinnings. To make the Type R even more capable in the bends, engineers have updated the control software for the adaptive damping system so it is now 10 times faster at evaluating road conditions, not only leading to improved dynamics but also ride comfort. In order to reduce body roll and improve cornering toe-in, the rear bushings for the lower B-arms have been stiffened by eight percent while 10 percent stiffer front compliance bushings work in unison with new lowerfriction ball joints to aid steering feel. The brakes have been upgraded too with new two-piece floating front brake discs and a new, more fade-resistant brake pad material combining to improve heat management during ‘high intensity driving’. Pedal travel has also been reduced by 15mm for increased feel and re-

The 2020 update for the Type R also debuts Honda’s new LogR data logging software, a feature exclusive to its flagship performance car. Combining the Type R’s onboard computer and sensors with the matching smartphone app, drivers are able to monitor and record a variety of different performance parameters including lap times and vehicle information as well as generate an ‘auto score’ which measures the smoothness of the owner’s day-to-day driving. “Since its introduction in 2017, Civic Type R has garnered near universal acclaim for its combination of potent dynamic performance and everyday civility,” Honda said in a statement. “The Civic Type R continues the heritage of Honda’s high-performance hatchback bloodline, combining expertly tuned front-wheel-drive chassis dynamics with aggressive design and extensive aerodynamic detailing.” No changes have been made to the fiery turbocharged 2.0-litre four-cylinder petrol engine which continues to develop 228kW of power and a punchy 400Nm of torque. While the Type R is not singled out in VFacts data, Honda sold 4603 examples of the wider Civic range through the first seven months of 2020, accounting for 7.1 per cent of the sub-$40,000 small car segment. – Callum Hunter

We will be forever grateful for the positive impact you have had on our lives. Our coffee catch ups were always filled with hours of laughter. Today, tomorrow, our whole life through, we will always, remember you. Love Raelene, Angela & Kathy

TAYLOR, Carole

Tears in my eyes, I will wipe away. But the love in my heart, is there to stay. I will miss you so much Carole. An amazing friend to have had in my life and I will cherish our many memories. The laughter, the tears, the coffee catch ups and best of all our day trips exploring down roads we had never been. You would tell me “its fine, keep driving”.... and then we’d stop and laugh, because perhaps we should have been in a 4WD after all! Rest peacefully, Love Angela

THORNE, Maryanne Fond memories of my niece. Cousin to John, Kerry, Janine and Annette and Uncle John. Fondly remembered and sadly missed.

Funeral Notices

MARSH, Sylvia Elizabeth

4.3.1933 – 20.5.2020 We wish to express our heartfelt thanks to our relatives, friends and neighbours for their help, love and support over the years and especially on the loss of our dearly loved wife, mother, mother-in-law, nanna and little nan nan. The many expressions of sympathy, cards, flowers, food, phone calls and visits have been a great comfort to us all. Thank you to Allambi staff, residents and friends who formed a guard of honour with “You are my sunshine” playing, all holding flowers and waving. To the Dimboola Nursing Home staff, residents and friends who also lined the street as Belle made her way to her final resting place. Belle would have thought this was a terrific tribute and for the family it made a sad day so much brighter. We especially wish to thank the Dimboola Nursing Home, Doctors, Allambi and staff for their compassionate care and friendship during Belle’s time with them as a resident. Your thoughtfulness is greatly appreciated and will always be remembered. Norm, Greg, Julie, Glenda and Families.

MORRISON, Ian (Crosby)

All our family are so blessed and comforted by your loving thoughts and prayers of cards, flowers, texts and phone calls as our dear dad and grandpa, Geoffrey Schneider, went home to his Lord aged 86. We are grateful to Wimmera Nursing Home staff, Dr Wilson and Hospice Care for your beautiful care in dad’s last days with us. We missed you all at dad’s life celebration but so grateful to Harvest Church who provided a truly warm and comforting service. Link to view service is available: https://youtu.be/ AqGT8PAGWGk Thank you for all your heartfelt love and care. We greatly appreciate you. Psalm 34 “I will bless the Lord at all times; His praise will continuously be in my mouth….” e ‘Oh Happy Day!’ e

IF YOU LIVE IN ARARAT AND WANT TO PLACE A CLASSIFIED ADVERTISEMENT IN THE WEEKLY ADVERTISER, PLEASE CALL INTO:

An anchor is what keeps a ship stable. A crew would drop an anchor to ensure that the ship stays on its intended destination no matter what is happening in the sea around it. This is what we need. In fact, we need an anchor for our souls more than we know, and here are three reasons why: 1. Because hardship will come. We read the phrase, anchor for the soul in the Book of Hebrews in the Bible. And one of the main exhortations of that entire book, written to a group of struggling and suffering Christians who were undergoing persecution can be summarized like this: Just keep going; Continue on; Endure; Persevere. Do not give up the faith though hardship is a present reality. So, it is with us. Hardship is a present reality just by way of living in a broken world, but there will be seasons in your life and mine when that hardship will become more acute. We need the same simple exhortation – just keep going. 2. Because our hearts tend to drift. If you left a ship in the middle of a body of water, no matter how calm and serene that water might seem on the surface, it will inevitably start to drift. That’s because even though the surface appears calm, there are currents constantly operating below the surface. So, it is with the human heart. There is the tendency to drift from truth, to drift from reality, to drift into dangerous shark infested waters. 3. Because we are too easily pleased. What can cause that drift? Many things, really – it could be an enticing relationship. Perhaps it’s the love of money or the chasing of some ambition. We lose our focus and begin to meander our way toward things that promise us satisfaction and joy, but never truly deliver. But we believe that promise because, as CS Lewis famously said, we are far too easily pleased. Check Him out, Jesus is your Hope and wants to be the anchor for your soul.

Bellman back in business

Sport

rarat reinsman Michael Bellman turned the tables on his previous drive at Horsham Racing Centre when he scored with Eastbro Adele in the $7000 The Weekly Advertiser Three-Year-Old Pace.

Back in pre-COVID-19 time in March, Bellman tailed the field home with Just Wantano in the final event on the card. But five months later he reversed that result when saluting the judge in the first race staged since, with the Shadow Play USA filly, trained by Rebecca East. Despite racing without cover throughout the 2200-metre journey, Bellman and Eastbro Adele proved too strong over the concluding stages, scoring by 1.9 metres from Iron Chariot – David Murphy – with Premonition – Grant Campbell – rattling home late for third after making a mistake at the 400-metre mark. Horsham-trained five-year-old mare Keayang Shady also notched up a much-deserved victory on Thursday when successful in a $7000 Rating 51-54 Pace over the sprint trip of 1700 metres. The ultra-consistent daughter of Shadyshark Hanover USA had been a regular placegetter since last scoring at St Arnaud in November and rewarded her owners Helen Friend,

HORSHAM WIN: Michael Bellman steers Eastbro Adele to victory in The Weekly Advertiser Three-Year-Old Pace for Heywood trainer Rebecca East in Horsham. Picture: CLAIRE WESTON PHOTOGRAPHY Steve Blacker and Aaron Dunn with a brave home-track success. Drawn out wide in gate five, Keayang Shady was forced to work early in the contest to find the spot outside the leader with 1200 metres left to travel. A middle quarter in 33 seconds provided some respite and turning for home driver Aaron Dunn looked confident as the mare responded to his encouragement and the combo were untroubled to score by 3.4 metres in a rate of 2.01.5. ‘Shady’ is a half-sister to the former top-class performer Keayang Steamer – winner of 21 races from only 52 starts including 2014 and 2016 Horsham Pacing Cups – and should

make a fine producer when her racing days are done. Forty minutes later, Dunn made it an owner-trainer-driver running double with his three-year-old, Auckland Reactor NZ, gelding Maxactor in the $7000 Lifeline 13 11 14 Pace. Maxactor was forced to do it tough, racing outside the leader for most of the 2200-metre trip. But he found plenty over the concluding stages to score by a half-neck on the line, from Duty Bound – Grant Campbell – and Marjorie Jean – Michael Bellman – in a rate of 2:00.5. Maxactor is a half-brother to the Dunn family’s former smart racemare, Nikkibadwagon – 57 starts, 11 wins, 21 minors and $167,020.

Great Western horsewoman Kerryn Manning enjoyed a training double at Horsham. Smart former NZ pacer Steam Punk took his record to seven wins from 14 starts since crossing the ditch, trouncing a smart field by 12 metres in a $7000 pace over 2200 metres for owners Merv and Meg Butterworth. Later in the day stablemate Valienti landed a 1700-metre pace with concession driver Brad Chisholm aboard. The former NSW gelding made it three in a row since heading south to race for the Dreamers Group, leading all the way to score in effortless fashion from Abby Fields – Xavier O’Connor – and Ideal TJ – James Herbertson – in a rate of 2:00.9.

One second splits the field John Aisbett scored his first win for the 2020 Horsham Homing Club pigeonracing season by the narrowest possible margin. Aisbett’s bird found its way home to Horsham in the club’s second 183kilometre race from Pyramid Hill, one second ahead of its nearest rival. Sixteen club members entered 589 racing pigeons in the event. Aisbett’s winning entry flew the journey in 2.16.06 hours, averaging 91.8kms an hour. A northeasterly breeze on Saturday resulted in a fast flight by usual standards. The club also ran a nomination race with Latus Jewellers providing a women’s watch as first prize in this novel event. Each of the 16 members nominated two female pigeons from their entry in the main race. Brian Watts nominated the winning entry from a field of 32 pigeons. His winner of this two-bird nomination race also came third overall in the main event. Results: Pyramid Hill, John Aisbett, whose winning entry averaged 1361.72 metres a minute, by one second from The McPhee Family’s leading pigeon, which averaged 1361.51. Brian Watts, a further 1.06 later, was third with 1350.71. Club racing this weekend will be from Elmore, north of Bendigo.

Plans to celebrate tennis centenary “A big thanks also to the Horsham council, which has assisted time and time again with funding and help along the journey.” Mrs Exell said anyone with old photographs they would like to share with the club could call her on 0409 257 256 or email exeys@bigpond.com. She said the event would also be promoted through a Haven Tennis Club Centenary Facebook page and the club’s website, play.tennis.com.au/ haventennisclub. “Thousands of people have played for Haven Tennis Club over the years, so we hope many of them will come along and enjoy the weekend,” Mrs Exell said.

BY SARAH MATTHEWS

aven Tennis Club leaders are hopeful COVID-19 restrictions on large gatherings will ease by November as they plan a weekend of celebrations to mark the club’s centenary.

Club life member, committee member and historian Sue Exell said organisers hoped to host commemorations on November 14 and 15. “This is provided COVID allows for large gatherings at that time, otherwise the event might need to be postponed to a date to be advised in 2021,” she said. “We expect there will be competition matches during the Saturday – if allowed – followed by a large event on Saturday evening – also if allowed. “We are planning a tournament and family activities on Sunday, including memorabilia displays and other special items to be decided.” Mrs Exell, who started playing with the club as a nine-year-old and went on to become president 10 times, said the club had an extensive history to celebrate. “The club started from humble beginnings back in 1919 when one dirt court was enthusiastically formed on a private property opposite Haven Primary School, known as ‘Sayers property’, with about 20 participants attending, mainly learners,”

History

MEMORIES: Haven Tennis Club life member, committee member and historian Sue Exell holds a 1954-55 premiership trophy, which club stalwart Ron Hayter helped secure for the club. Mr Hayter started playing tennis at Haven 72 years ago. Picture: PAUL CARRACHER she said. “This was quickly followed by a second court the next season due to the popularity of tennis in the community.” The club had two other sites before making its home at Haven Recreation Reserve. The community and the reserve were devastated by Black Saturday fires in 2009 and affected by floods in 2011.

“Our club has a lot to celebrate and reminisce about with all the hardfought matches won and lost, the life-long friendships, the numerous tournaments played and fundraisers supported, the hundreds of volunteer hours spent developing, maintaining and moving courts, the continued support of the community and players as the club developed into what it is today,” Mrs Exell said.

Club stalwart Ron Hayter is among former players and committee members keen to celebrate 100 years of history. Mr Hayter – whose grandfather Dick Hayter was an inaugural member of the club – played his first game of senior tennis at 10 years of age. “Four of the Haven members used to come and have a hit on a Sunday,” he said. “My uncle used to take me over to box the balls for them. After they’d finished, he’d have a hit with me. “One day, one of the fellas didn’t turn up – he couldn’t come. Wally Petrass, who lived just down the road,

said, ‘let the young fella have a game with us’. “I played with them and I played really well and Wally wanted me in the senior side. “There was no junior tennis then. He wanted me to get a game in the senior side the next week, and that’s how I started.” Mr Hayter, now 82, was club president when Haven won its first pennant premiership in the 1985-86 Wimmera tennis season. He was president 21 times and a decorated player, competing in seven premierships from 1954-55 to 1996-97. Mr Hayter has been club president the most times, followed by Mrs Exell and Bill Avery, deceased, who both served 10 terms in the top job. At the end of the 1977-78 season, club leaders awarded Mr Hayter a life membership. Mr Hayter’s brother, Col, and their families have also been avid supporters and players at Haven Tennis Club. “I’ve never played with anybody else – it’s always been Haven,” Mr Hayter said. “Tennis is a great sport to be involved in. You make a lot of friends.” Haven and other Central Wimmera Tennis Association clubs are hopeful of starting the 2020-21 season in October despite uncertainty surrounding community sport amid the COVID-19 pandemic.

Cricket protocols bring uncertainty

regional cricket leader has called on association and club representatives to be aware of what they might need to do in a changing environment when COVID-19 restrictions eventually ease.

Cricket Victoria north and west country manager Tony Caccaviello said there would be a pressing need for understanding and fixture flexibility in adapting to new procedures and protocols. “A key message we’re trying to promote is that playing cricket during a pandemic is a privilege, not a right, and the more we can do collectively as a sporting industry to prevent any potential spread of the virus, the easier it will be to get started and underway,” he said. “There is going to be a need for everyone to be willing to rapidly change draws, venues and so on. “There is plenty of speculation about when the game might start, if at all this summer, but we’re planning with an intent to play when it is safe to do so. “There are going to many things to consider – intricacies that have traditionally been part of the game. For example, we are unlikely to be able to use sweat or saliva to shine the ball, we won’t be able to ask umpires to hold bowlers’ hats or jumpers, and afternoon tea will change dramatically. “But cricket and sport in general play a huge part of regional life. We want to return to playing the game and we’re doing everything in our power to make it happen.” Mr Caccaviello made his comments as Horsham Cricket Association confirmed 7pm on Wednesday next week as the date for an online annual meeting. The summer cricket season usually starts in mid-October and the association has vacancies in all executive positions. All members of last season’s management board stood down in response to criticism over a finals decision at the start of the pandemic. Many Horsham club leaders have been ponder-

ing during the past month over the best course of action in getting cricket underway in some form this summer. Some are suggesting a radical overhaul of competition structure, while others believe delaying any form of the game until after Christmas is a sensible approach. Social interaction between players before and after as well as during games has long been a primary strength of the sport at a community level. A potential inability to pursue and promote this under strict protocols looms as a primary stumbling block for the game to regain traction. Mr Caccaviello urged clubs to consider the following as immediate tasks – • Ensure your committee, members and players are aware the season will not be a normal season. • Make contact as soon as possible with your council and-or schools to discuss venue access, cleaning requirements and protocols, signs and so on, and if there is any funding available to support clubs. • Ensure you are aware of the latest Cricket Victoria Return to Train and Play Guidelines – including training and guidance for COVID-19 officers, noting this will be updated when information from State Government is forthcoming. • Consider the Return to Cricket website for signs, sanitiser, wipes and other COVID-19 items. • Continue to revisit season plans such as budgeting, volunteer roles and so on. • Consider how your club can stay connected to your sponsors and members. • Consider how the club could operate if access to your facility is limited by State Government protocols. • Consider the development of a sign-in and sign-out solution with a QR code for training and playing. • Keep an eye out for information, updates and grant opportunities. • Reach out for support from your association, council or Cricket Victoria.

Homers duo in top team Prolific run-maker Adam Atwood has won selection as captain of a Western Waves cricket region team of the year. The Horsham Cricket Association opening batsman and his Homers club team-mate and all-rounder Craig Britten made the 12-man team based on performances last season.

with a highest score of 76 in 2019-20. Britten made 147 runs at 14.7 but also captured 39 wickets at 12.18 with a best haul of 8-19 with his right-arm medium-pacers. Hamilton association has four representatives in the team, Warrnambool four, Grassmere one and Portland one.
