procession of major events unfolding across the Wimmera, Grampians and southern Mallee are pumping millions of dollars into regional communities. Government development agencies are closely following the impact and evolution of these events and noting obvious socio-economic benefits. Regional development leader Stuart Benjamin said many large-scale community activities dominating a late summer and autumn calendar were major economic stimulants.
He said this meant major events that attracted people into their cities, towns and regions, were ‘in no small way’ contributing to the overall health of their communities. “In presenting these events, be they for music, business, agriculture or whatever, passionate people are providing a key piece of a regional development jigsaw puzzle,” he said. “These events only happen when local people get together and put in their own time, effort and money for the benefit of the greater community. “It’s creating an economic wave to the benefit of everyone and ultimately
creates jobs.” Mr Benjamin, Regional Development Victoria Grampians region chairman, made the comments in the wake of events such as Wimmera Machinery Field Days, Horsham Fishing Competition, Grampians Music and Pitch festivals, this weekend’s Horsham Irish and Ararat Jailhouse Rock festivals and other approaching events such as Horsham Country Music Festival and Warracknabeal’s Y-Fest. “Events are the best way to attract big-spending visitors into a community to boost business and employment opportunities,” he said.
“Visiting friends and relatives, known in the industry as VFR, account for nearly 50 percent of visitors to the Wimmera. “These are people who have a connection to the region. Events give this group a reason to visit, and encourages them to visit more often. “Events also encourage our communities to invite their friends – three quarters of visitors come from within Victoria, mostly Melbourne – to come and share a unique experience. It provides an excuse to visit.” Mr Benjamin, based in Ballarat but a regular Wimmera visitor and in charge
of development stretching from the edge of Melbourne to the South Australian border, said the Wimmera’s distance from Melbourne was both an advantage and disadvantage. “It means visitors need to stay for multiple days. It is our job to make sure we have enough offerings, or things for them to do, and sufficient accommodation,” he said. Mr Benjamin said expectations were that the annual value of tourism for both Horsham and Northern Grampians municipalities to hit $100-million by 2020. Continued page 3

New location, same great service A
fter 23 years at the same location, Horsham’s Mick Cramer Smash Repairs has moved on to bigger and better things.
The spray painting and smash repair specialist has moved from its old Mill Street location to new, roomier premises – a big blue shed at 1C Hazel Street. Owner Mick Cramer said the successful expansion of his business necessitated a new location. Mick Cramer Smash Repairs now employs 13 people and Mr Cramer said the move ‘had to happen’. “We became part of the IAG partnership, which includes insurers like RACV,” he said. “As a result of joining the partnership we had to hire extra workers to meet their standards. “When we hired more workers we needed somewhere to fit them all comfortably.” Mr Cramer said the new building allowed his business to operate more efficiently. “We have a brand new office which is better for customer service,” he said. “Everything is under one roof, which makes it a lot easier and more streamlined.” Coinciding with the move Mr Cramer will take a step back from managerial duties, with Kelly Gardner stepping up to run the day-to-day aspects of the business in his stead. “I’ll still be here most days operating in the background,” Mr Cramer said. “Kelly will just be taking a step up and I’ll be taking a step back.”

She said she enjoyed the challenges of her new position. “I’m feeling excited,” she said. “The pressure is definitely on, but I’ve got a
good team around me including a new office assistant, Tamara Koenig. “I love the new office and I’d like to thank Mick for the opportunity.” Mr Cramer said despite the change of location, his business would continue to offer customers the same
high-quality services, including: all private and insurance work; paint work on a range of vehicles including cars, trucks, tractors, buses, boats and motorcycles; car cut and polishing; and fibreglass repairs. “I’d like to thank everybody in Hor-

Plans in place for Irish party W
Region alive
BY DEAN LAWSON
immera people will have a chance to air the part of them that’s Irish this weekend at an inaugural Horsham Irish Festival.
Others, without any claim to Irish background, also have an invitation to be part of festivities set to unfold on the eve of St Patrick’s Day at Maydale Reserve at Horsham Showground. Horsham Agricultural Society is presenting Horsham Irish Festival from 8.30am to 11pm on Saturday. The event is split into morning and afternoon-evening sessions, starting with a free market and Big Irish Brekkie by the river from 8.30am to 12.30pm. The market will feature almost 30 stallholders lining the riverbank. The Irish Brekkie, with help from Horsham Apex, Lions and East Rotary clubs, will include elements that are distinctly Irish, provided by St Brigid’s College students and others. Heats for a Danny Boy singing competition, which offers a $100 prize, start at 9.30am. The festival will have a lunch interval at 12.30pm and continue with the opening of a Village Green at Maydale Reserve at 3pm. Entry to the afternoon-evening session will be $20 per adult, with proceeds going towards developing the site for future festivals and events. There will be many activities for children and adults alike and helicopter rides will be available all day. There will be a giant dart board, a potato-peeling competition, Irish-whiskey tasting and more heats of the Danny Boy singing competition, with the ultimate winner getting to sing with Melbourne Irish band The Exciting McGillicuddies later that evening. Yes Optus has come on as major sponsor of the event and will provide
TO BE SURE: Horsham Agricultural Society’s Andrea Cross, Dusty Cross, Ian Walter, Daryl Wallace and Zack Currie are working to ensure this weekend’s Horsham Irish Festival is a success. Picture: PAUL CARRACHER a giant screen for a 5pm screening of the movie Mamma Mia featuring Irish actor Pierce Brosnan. At 7.30pm, Paddy’s Bar will open in Maydale Pavilion, corresponding with a performance of Horsham School of Dance Irish dancers. Paddy’s Bar is the product of a series of workshops that has involved the creation of a pallet wall and transformation of part of the pavilion into a bar. Horsham Agricultural Society secretary Andrea Cross said the idea of the festival had come from a conversation with ACE Radio Horsham general manager Brendan O’Loughlin. “It just went from there. An Irish theme just lends itself to fun and we thought why not?” she said. “We want to continue to activate the
river precinct and also use the Maydale Pavilion. We have this wonderful big shed that we want to encourage the community to come and use. “We’re opening a new ‘book’ here, providing an extra event that helps us and the community explore festivals.” Mrs Cross agreed the Irish theme, apart from fun, was also about ‘delving into the community’s cultural history, pinching out a part of it and having a festival’. “It’s a family day strategically timed to be on the eve on St Patrick’s Day,” she said. “We’re inviting the whole community. There will be simple activities for kids and great entertainment overall. We’re hoping to get at least 500 people there. “This is the first Irish festival we
know of in Horsham. If we get the support we need it won’t be the last. So go green on Saturday.” The event has also attracted Victorian Farmers Federation funding from a Look Over The Farm Gate project. “Look Over the Farm Gate is a call to action for rural communities to look out for one another, promote social inclusion, create awareness about mental health and reduce the impact it has on rural communities,” Mrs Cross said. “As an agricultural society, we support that. “We will also include the launch of a Stump Dump project into activities. “We’re inviting people to write down concerns or worries and to dump them into a stump, which along with other stumps we will burn later in the year.”
From page 1 “This is a significant source of income for our region and accounts for more than 1000 jobs in just these two council areas,” Mr Benjamin said. “The key is to try and get a visitor to stay longer and to spend more. Events such as the Wimmera Machinery Field Days involve visitors coming for multiple days. They fill our motels and book out our restaurants. This creates long-term jobs.” Mr Benjamin encouraged people to continue forging ahead in presenting major events and applauded all involved. But he added there was a need for greater co-ordination to allow events to either work together or avoid clashing. “We need to continually encourage people to come again and again, not just in a one-month period. There are many opportunities to get this right through regional governance,” he said. “It is very rare that someone will drive three or four hours to do a single thing. “I encourage everyone involved in events to see who else they can partner up with. It’s important to remember that we’re not isolated. If something happens in Horsham it could be good for Halls Gap and Ararat and vice-versa.” Mr Benjamin said the $30-million Grampians Peaks Trail, stretching from one end of the Grampians mountains to the other and a signature project of RDA, was a primary example of something communities could lever. “For the first time, we will have an attraction that will see large numbers of high-spending international tourists coming to our region,” he said. “We need to think big.”
Wetland closures for duck-hunting season opening Authorities have included lakes near Horsham, Ararat, Stawell and Donald among wetland closures for the opening of duck-hunting season this weekend. Lake Lonsdale near Stawell and Round Lake near Donald are completely off limits to hunting and Lake Bolac south of Ararat and Pine Lake, southeast of Horsham, are only open to shoreline hunting. Restrictions are in place to protect or prevent disturbance to significant numbers of threatened bird species. Game Management Authority has provided explanations of lake restric-
tions. They are – • Lake Bolac, next to the town of Lake Bolac: Hunting from boats is prohibited due to the presence of a large number of threatened Bluebilled and Freckled duck. However, hunters are permitted to use non-motorised boats to retrieve downed birds hunted from the shoreline. • Lake Lonsdale near Stawell: The lake is closed to hunting due to the presence of a large number of threatened Freckled duck. • Pine Lake near Horsham: Hunting from boats is prohibited on Pine Lake due to the presence of a large number
of Blue-billed duck. However, hunters are permitted to use non-motorised boats to retrieve downed birds hunted from the shoreline. • Round Lake, part of the Cope Cope State Game Reserve, south of Donald: The lake is closed due to the presence of a large number of Freckled and Blue-billed duck. The authority has also listed restrictions on other waters across the state. Authority chief executive Graeme Ford said closing wetlands or prohibiting hunting from a boat ensured threatened species were protected and duck hunting remained sustainable.
“Through closing wetlands or regulating hunting methods, such as boating, where appropriate and paying close attention to bird numbers, we are able to ensure that rare and threatened species are protected,” he said. “Government officials will monitor the closed wetlands throughout the season. If the reason for the closure no longer exists, they will recommend it be reopened for hunting.” The authority has reminded hunters that a daily bag limit is four game ducks per person on the opening weekend, with a five game ducks per day bag limit for the remainder of the
nine-week season. Hunting of Bluewinged Shoveler is banned for 2019. Similar to last year, hunting on the opening weekend of the 2019 Victorian season will start at 9am, Saturday and 8am on Sunday as part of a twoyear trial to ensure an orderly start to the season. For the rest of the season, hunting times will revert to the standard period of half an hour before sunrise to half an hour after sunset. The season closes half an hour after sunset on May 19.

Templar wins with a whopper BY COLIN MacGILLIVRAY
H
orsham Fishing Competition organisers were thrilled with the outcome of Sunday’s event despite inclement weather playing havoc with anglers during the afternoon.
More than 1600 competitors thronged the banks of the Wimmera River hoping to land the heaviest native fish. Stawell’s Frank Templar was a runaway winner, hooking a whopping 4564-gram yellowbelly within the first hour and a half of competition using yabby bait. No other competitor came close to Mr Templar’s catch – second place eventually went to Gordon’s Mark Spiteri with a 1612-gram yellowbelly. Mr Templar was a previous winner of the Horsham competition in 1995 and said he had entered the competition about 15 times. He was offered the choice of a new Kia Rio car or a barramundi fishing trip to the Tiwi Islands. Mr Templar said he would choose the car because he was ‘not a traveller’. Mr Spiteri’s second-place catch earned him a Savage 3.6-metre aluminium boat with motor and a trailer. The third-place prize of a tuna fishing trip for eight to Portland went to Warrnambool’s Matthew Nicholls with a 1340-gram yellowbelly. Competition chairwoman Adele Rohde said Mr Templar’s catch had impressed everyone. “It was huge,” she said. “It’s great to see a fish that size coming out of

Milnes Bridge man Chris Denton had the heaviest bag of carp, reeling in an astounding 95,832 grams. Emma Strawford’s 2194-gram carp was the winner of the women’s carp section.

Haven’s Archie Vincent won the junior carp section with a 4175-gram catch and Shelby Jones topped the tiddlers carp section with 2891-gram fish. Mrs Rohde said rainy and windy conditions on Sunday afternoon had not deterred most of the competitors. “The weather took a bit of a turn for the worse about halfway through the day and we certainly don’t blame some people for packing up and calling it quits at that point, given the wind and everything else,” she said.
“For those that stuck it out, there was a second wave of fish in the afternoon after the weather passed. “The person who came sixth caught his fish within the last hour of the competition. “We were lucky that it did clear up in the afternoon and we had a really good turnout at the presentations. “We were able to give a lot of items away to people and reward them for sitting out there in the weather.” Mrs Rohde said the competition committee’s aim of getting more ju-

niors involved had also led to about 400 juniors attending a free fishing clinic at Horsham Angling Club on Saturday. Although not many entrants in the junior and tiddlers sections reeled in eligible fish, most children walked away with prizes. Zoologist and television presenter Chris Humfrey also kept crowds entertained for the fourth year in a row with informative wildlife presentations at different locations along the riverbank. “Chris is always a popular act and it’s great for us because it helps us fill in some time while we’re trying to lock down the results and make sure we’ve got all the fish in, weighed and registered.” Mrs Rohde said the competition, strongly supported by The Weekly Advertiser, had been successful because of the hard work and dedication of its many volunteer organisers and stewards. “It’s a massive event to pull together and it really couldn’t happen without them,” she said. “In the carp section Chris Denton reeled in a ridiculous amount of fish and we had two girls there stewarding. Between the two of them they weighed about 90 fish. “All our stewards did such a great job and without them we wouldn’t get those fish weighed and back into the river.” Mrs Rohde said all the carp caught during competition would be given to migrant groups that used them as a food source.

Loaded landlines put people at risk T
here was a time when a ring coming in to a household landline telephone generated a sense of expectation and above all, curiosity.
Who could it be ringing us? Relatives or friends primed for a chat, a business returning a call, perhaps an essential service informing us or following up with information we were seeking? Sadly those days appear long gone. Now, instead of curious anticipation, many of us answer household landline calls with a feeling or dread, anxiety or annoyance.
In fact, some of us these days don’t answer at all, preferring instead to allow answering machines or services to field a seemingly un-ending queue of unsolicited calls. The household landline telephone system, so long the backbone of modern communication, has more than taken a back seat in a world of mobile phones. For many, it’s now becoming a nuisance. It has established itself as an open avenue for cheeky sales people, marketers, charities, surveyors and crooks to get easy access to everyday people. And, similar to online hacking, at

particular risk are our vulnerable elderly. Sure, there are ways to block uninvited calls, but many people consider this an inconvenience and processes always need renewing. It stands to reason that with the many efficient mobile-phone services, plans
and savings now available, many people have simply ditched landline services to their homes. But others, perhaps wary of potential signal and connectivity issues, perceived costs, confused by the flood of Telco schemes and products available or simply unwilling to change something that has worked so well in the past, cling to their traditional connections. And why shouldn’t they? Regardless of what some modern telecommunication whizzes might argue, home-based telephone landlines remain, if only as a back-up service, important to community security. There are obviously no fool-proof
ways of keeping our telephones in our homes free of junk or criminal elements. If so, these calls would be considerably fewer and more random. The issue is obviously also far from confined to landlines, with all levels of communication vulnerable to incursions from uninvited participants. What it tells us that in our modern and shrinking world we have never been more accessible or connected to each other. It also tells us that being connected, as wonderful as it is, has its challenges and these days there are various levels of privacy.
Community to pick artwork A Horsham Rural City Council Reconciliation Action Plan will feature community artwork. The council will ask the community to vote on which artwork will make the cover and which will feature in the body of the document. Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander community members have submitted pieces ‘Ignite’ and ‘Malgarr Miyurr – Shield of Spirit Land’ after an invitation from Horsham’s Aboriginal Advisory Committee. The pieces reflect the vision of the Reconciliation Action Plan, which is to ‘create an improved understanding of Aboriginal histories, culture, hopes and future aspirations through fostering inclusive, respectful and meaningful relationships within the community’. The pieces are on display in Horsham Civic Centre, where the community can lodge its vote. Voting is also open via a council Facebook poll until 5pm on March 22.

Progress at Marnoo’s Walkers Lake Northern Grampians Shire Council has approved a 10-year management plan to enhance the recreation value of Walkers Lake. The lake, located north of Marnoo, came under the council’s management in 2014 when control of the reserve was changed from Parks Victoria. Under the previous management plan the council secured water supply and constructed a boat launching ramp, toilet facility and additional signage. The new management plan will focus on continuing to grow recreational use of

the lake while minimising biodiversity impacts. The new plan will concentrate on the strategic areas of community recreation and built environment, cultural heritage, biodiversity and natural environment, tourism and water supply. The council will implement the plan with input from Walkers Lake Advisory Group. Kara Kara Ward councillor Tony Driscoll said the plan would ensure the lake’s place as an important community asset. “There’s been a lot of multi-levelled involvement in the creation of this plan,
with a great balance of community, environment and other stakeholders taking part,” he said. “It’s an important document because it allows us to continue to progress with Walkers Lake, especially when it comes to seeking funding for upgrades or maintenance of the reserve.” The council has identified more than 35 management issues, including ensuring water supply, improving visitor experience, providing adequate infrastructure for recreational fishing and educational awareness about unauthorised use of wood for fires.

Major victory for river-trail plans
P
lans to exploit the recreation tourism potential of the Wimmera River’s lower reaches have had a major boost on the back of Federal Government funding.
The government confirmed plans to invest $600,000 into helping Hindmarsh Shire Council establish the first 61-kilometre stage of a 103-kilometre $3-million Wimmera River Discovery Trail. The council has listed the cyclingwalking-camping trail project between Dimboola and Lake Hindmarsh near Jeparit as a priority tourism project since 2016. It has earmarked $200,000 from council coffers for the project and the State Government $400,000.
Australian Regional Services Minister Bridget McKenzie announced the funding as part of a broad regional Mallee electorate package during a visit to Riverside Holiday Park at Dimboola last week. Hindmarsh mayor Ron Ismay said the council strongly supported plans to establish the Wimmera River Discovery Trail as ‘an iconic, multi-use trail along the Wimmera River corridor between Dimboola, Jeparit and Lake Hindmarsh’. “The Wimmera River Discovery Trail is a top-three-priority project in Regional Development Victoria’s Grampians Region Cycling and Trails Infrastructure Business and Masterplan,” he said.
The Wimmera River Discovery Trail concept is designed to increase the number of visitors to the region by showcasing regional indigenous history and culture as well as environmental and heritage-based features. It will also work to complement other tourism projects including the Wimmera-Mallee’s Silo Art Trail, Pink Lake at Lochiel and Lake Tyrell at Sea Lake, which already boasts a large Chinese-visitor market. “All of these combined will support the Wimmera-Mallee as a tourism destination rather than somewhere you drive through to get to another destination,” Cr Ismay said. “The council believes the Wimmera River Discovery Trail will be a boon
for Dimboola and Jeparit because both towns will be either starting or finishing points for the trail. “Establishment of facilities in both towns and along the river corridor for participants will be as important as the establishment of the trail. “We now look forward to the commencement of this exciting project.” Wimmera Development Association completed the ‘Grampians’ region cycling and trails business and masterplan, which includes the Wimmera River project, in September last year. The 10-year plan is a project between 11 municipal councils and covers an area from Bacchus Marsh to the South Australian border. The plan included economic busi-
ness cases for Wimmera River Discovery Trail, Ararat Hills Mountain Bike Park and an extension to a Goldfields Track between Ballarat and Bendigo. The stretch of Wimmera River between Dimboola and the terminal lakes of Hindmarsh and Albacutya form the lower arterial end of the Wimmera catchment. The area has been the subject of significant historic human activity for thousands of years, initially involving indigenous people and later European settlers and entrepreneurs. Regional Landcare members explored the river trail concept with a major walk along the river more than than 10 years ago.
Rodeo sparks future interest

Engines excite young and old Vintage, restored, created and repaired. That sums up the variety of vehicles on show at the 19th annual Horsham Car and Bike Show on Sunday. Despite rain during the showcase, participants and spectators were keen to show their support for families with sick children. The event, which raises money for charity Wimmera Against Cancer in Kids, attracted 205 entries this year. Show spokesman Simon Clark said despite the number of exhibitors being down on pervious years, he was pleased with the turnout. “There is a lot happening at the moment and the rain did dampen our parade a little bit,” he said. “But to have 205 entries is really great.” Organisers are yet to find out how much money was raised for WACK. Mr Clark said the decrease in entrants and an early finish due to weather conditions would likely have an impact, but every single dollar counted. “I do believe it will be down a little from last year,” he said.
“We will know in the next couple of days.” The event has a reputation for its wide collection of vehicles, featuring everything from bikes through to American muscle cars. Mr Clark said the increasing variety and calibre of vehicles entered each year showed car and bike culture was moving in a positive direction. He congratulated motoring enthusiasts for the variety of cars and bikes presented at the event. “We had some of the best vehicles in western Victoria in the show. We even had a hot rod from Tasmania enter,” he said. The show will celebrate its 20th birthday next year and organisers already have plans to see the event step up another level. “It is really all about raising money for sick kids – that is the main reason why we do it,” Mr Clark said. “But to have an event going for 20 years is a big thing. We will have a fair bit of planning to make sure it is the best it has ever been.” – Lotte Reiter
Goroke Apex Rodeo organisers are unsure whether the event will become an annual fixture on the town’s calendar despite hailing it as a big success. An estimated crowd of more than 1500 people attended the rodeo at Goroke Showground on Saturday night. It was the first time the town had hosted a rodeo since the mid-1990s. The event served as a fundraiser for the Apex Club of Goroke. Club president Jarred Lowe said feedback from riders and patrons had been overwhelmingly positive. “We were very happy with it, that’s for sure, and all the feedback from people around the place has been really good,” he said. “There were competitors and cowboys that said if we run it again they’re coming back and they’re bringing mates. “All the bull riders think we should be going
around again next year, but we’ll have to sit down as a club and see what we all reckon.” Mr Lowe admitted the effort of organising the rodeo had been exhausting. “There were a lot of people who put a lot of time and effort into it,” he said. “The organising subcommittee started work on Thursday morning getting things in place and we were all still here on Monday helping clean up. “We’ll sit down in the next couple of weeks and have a talk about it to see if we can work out the general feeling. I definitely wouldn’t mind seeing it go again. Whether I’ve got it in me to do all the work again is a different story.” Despite running at the same time as a Professional Bull Riders rodeo in Ballarat, Mr Lowe said the quality of riders at Goroke had been high. Heywood’s Sam Woodall pocketed $3720 as the winner of the open bull ride section. – Colin MacGillivray

Region welcomes federal investment
A
$10-million Federal Government-funding package for the Mallee electorate has attracted widespread plaudits from municipal and agency leaders.
Horsham, Hindmarsh and Yarriambiack shires were, with Mildura and Central Goldfields, major beneficiaries of the funding. Regional Services Minister Bridget McKenzie announced the package as third-round announcements from the government’s Building Better Regions Fund. Major Wimmera projects to gain significant financial backing were a Horsham Rural City Council upgrade to Horsham Regional Livestock Exchange, $1.49-million; Hindmarsh Shire Council’s Wimmera River Discovery Trail project, $600,000; and Yarriambiack Shire Council’s Wimmera Mallee Tourist Trails strategic plan, $562,500, and Warracknabeal Regional Livestock Exchange, Ram it Up Project, $204,137. A lion’s share of $7.5-million went to completion of the second stage of a Mildura South Regional Sporting Precinct, while Central Goldfields Shire Council’s 2030 Aspiring and Achieving towns project received $90,000. Senator McKenzie announced the successful applicants while joining Nationals Mallee candidate Anne Webster at Wimmera Machinery Field Days at Longerenong near Horsham. “Agriculture and primary industries is a key driver of the Mallee and Wimmera economies,” she said. “To be able to support the livestock industry through major infrastructure upgrades means these facilities are of a standard which enables the livestock exchange to remain competitive. “Our government is able to invest in infrastructure and activities that grow regional economies

because of our responsible economic management.” Dr Webster said investment would be welcomed across the region. “As I’ve been meeting with councils and community groups across the Wimmera and the Mallee, I’ve been advocating on the communities behalf to the Deputy Prime Minister to fund these important regional projects,” she said. “It is great to see more tourism opportunities developing, from the fantastic food and wine experience in our diverse electorate to making the most of the wonderful natural features.” Regional Development Australia Grampians chairman Stuart Benjamin said the projects would have significant benefits for the agriculture and tourism sectors. “The agriculture sector is a major economic lever for Horsham, Warracknabeal and the Grampians region at large,” he said. “These investments in livestock exchanges will ensure we can continue to attract vendors to our major centres and support the long-term viability of these assets for the local farming community.” Mr Benjamin also praised a renewed focus on tourism in the region. “Tourism is a critical driver of the economic potential of the Wimmera and southern Mallee,” he said. “We are excited to see the development of the Wimmera Mallee Tourist Trails project, which will see an increased focus on attracting and capitalising on visitation to regional tourist trails such as our Silo Arts Trail. The establishment of the first section of the Wimmera River Discovery Trail is also great news and will attract more cyclists to explore our beautiful region which will be great news for local businesses.” • Saleyards win, page 17.
Country Fire Authority has advised that people in Horsham, West Wimmera, Yarriambiack and Hindmarsh shires can now apply for schedule-13 permits to burn stubble. CFA District 17 manager Craig Brittain said a return of cool weather would prompt many farmers and landholders to plan pre-sowing burning programs. He encouraged people to apply early for permits to avoid delays when conditions were right to burn. “While there is still a high fire risk across municipalities, restrictions will remain in force,” he said. “Permits to burn will be available from municipal offices, but will have strict conditions that must be adhered to, including specific instructions for District 17 landholders.” Under the 1966 Summary Offences Act, landowners must not leave a fire unattended because it could result in damage to or destruction of life and property. “Landowners have responsibilities they must adhere to when burning off,” Mr Brittain said. “They must have a firebreak of at least three metres around the area they intended to burn, and notify their neighbours at least two hours before they start burning. “Under the Summary Offences Act, there is the risk of a fine, 12 months imprisonment or
CFA District 17 manager Craig Brittain both for people who do not abide by the act. It is important that all landholders are aware of their responsibilities when incorporating burning off into their farm safety plan and take adequate precautions to ensure that all requirements are met.” Mr Brittain also urged landowners to notify Vic Fire on 1800 668 511 when about to undertake a burn to inform district brigades. “This was because people who saw the fire might report it to through emergency number Triple Zero, 000,” he said.

Young leader to build on ag society
A
t 21, Zack Currie has become the youngest Horsham Agricultural Society president.
A member since 2016 and junior vice-president last year, Mr Currie accepted a nomination from members to lead the organisation this year. He said he looked forward to leading the society and again being involved in the organisation’s main event, the Horsham Show. “Volunteering has always been a big thing for me,” he said. “It will be my fourth show this year. I get a lot out of it, and the people here are really supportive.” Originally from Bonnie Doon, Mr Currie is a qualified fleece
judge and won a senior wool-handling competition at the Australian Sheep and Wool Show in 2017. “My main passion is the fleece section and sheering competitions,” Mr Currie said. “With the three years of me being here we have made the wool-handling section much stronger than it used to be.” Mr Currie said he hoped to see this expansion and growth continue for agricultural shows. He said agricultural shows were losing their appeal and it was important they remained relevant. “We are trying to keep them alive. They have had to evolve with the times, and younger heads are slowly seeing results,” he said. Horsham Agricultural Society
secretary Andrea Cross described Mr Currie as a ‘visionary’ in his area of passion. “He has taken a really strong interest in the organisation,” she said. “He is passionate about agricultural shows. He holds them very close to his heart and he wants to build capacity in that space.” Mr Currie is one of several young members making an imprint in Horsham Agricultural Society, which continues to provide a platform connecting young people with the experience of older generations. Previously, Dalton Cross became president of the organisation at 22. “We have a contingent of young
people in the society,” Mrs Cross said. “They bring new ideas and they perhaps have a different approach to things, but at the same time are keeping core values and the history of the organisation.” Mr Currie said young members were important in strengthening volunteering organisations and encouraging a passion for volunteer work in younger community members. “We can use young members to reach out to those of a similar demographic. It is probably the best way to encourage other young people to get involved,” he said. Mr Currie will lead the society with support from new vice-president Leigh McGennisken.
LEADER: Horsham Agricultural Society newly elected president Zack Currie.

A master plan to guide development of Central Park, Cato Park and Maud Street dam precincts in Stawell has municipal approval. Northern Grampians Shire Council has endorsed Stawell Parks Precinct Master Plan, a project funded by an $18,700 grant from the Federal Government’s Building Better Regions program, in partnership with the council. The plan has identified the engagement, consultation and positive community benefits and long-term community aspirations involving the precincts. The master plan also identifies goals and directions for each location, as well as issues such as paths and access, fit-for-purpose assets, presentation and interface, lakes, wildlife and play facilities. Stawell Ward councillor Murray Emerson said the planning process had involved about six months of work. He said it had included monthly meetings for a community reference group and professional advice from the consultants. “From here we intend to move forward in instigating the plan, which will include more community consultation and hopefully in time we’ll be able to deliver on the feedback that we’ve received throughout the process,” he said. The process began with a community engagement period, which included community walks through the precincts to gather information about community ideas or issues involving the areas. Additional community engagement included social media, face-to-face meetings, letter drops and meetings with key stakeholders such as Grampians Community Health, Stawell Regional Health, Eventide Homes, schools and more. A community reference group also formed to provide extensive knowledge and input into the creation of the final plan. The council then engaged open-space consultants @Leisure Planners to produce a plan that incorporated the outcomes from the community engagement period. The plan has in turn helped inform the council on strategic planning and future investment opportunities for the spaces.

Appeal to support ‘true blue locals’ BY COLIN MacGILLIVRAY
W
e all know that person who is involved in the community who won’t ask for help but deserves it...
That simple statement by Bridie Behmer encapsulates her brother-inlaw, Peter Stasinowsky. Having grown up and lived most of his life in the southern Mallee town of Rainbow, Peter is an integral part of his community’s social fabric. From countless hours spent nurturing the talents of young footballers as Jeparit-Rainbow Football Netball Club’s Auskick coach to tireless work as Rainbow’s mechanic, Peter makes an impact across the town. His wife Casey is equally regarded for her work at Rainbow hospital. “They’re true blue locals,” Mrs Behmer said. “They were both born and bred in Rainbow, went to Adelaide for a few years and then moved back home. “Casey, my sister, got together with Pete when she was about 16. I’m six years younger than her, so I was 10 or 11 when I first met him. “He’s my brother-in-law, but essentially he’s like my brother. I don’t really know life without him in it.” Unfortunately, life without Peter is a possibility his family and Rainbow community have had to contemplate more than once. In 2016, just after the birth of their daughter Elsie, the Stasinowskys received devastating news. A valve in Peter’s heart had deteriorated – the result of a golden staph infection in his knee years earlier – and needed to be replaced.
It was a testing time for the family. Peter spent three months in hospital before and after surgery, more than four hours away from his young family. When he returned home however, the outlook was good. Check-ups revealed little cause for concern and everything appeared good until Peter suddenly became sick in early February. He was rushed to hospital in Ballarat and flown to the specialist cardiac unit at Melbourne’s Epworth Hospital. The infection had returned, but now it was in his spine as well as his heart. “He’s got another very nasty infection in his back and that infection has travelled to his heart and essentially disintegrated another valve,” Mrs Behmer said. “He wasn’t able to move, wasn’t able to stand up, wasn’t able to walk, wasn’t able to roll over. “He was in extreme pain and they couldn’t get on top of it because the infection was affecting the nerves in his spinal canal. Everything runs through your spinal canal, so everything was affected. “In treating that they had a look at his heart and realised there was a fair bit of damage there. “He will have to go in and have more valves replaced.” Mrs Behmer said the return of the infection had devastated the indefatigable Peter. “This is a man with four kids. He doesn’t do things by halves,” she said. “He would run around everywhere, take the kids everywhere and it was just go, go, go. “Now he’s been lying in a hospital

bed for four weeks. He’s lost weight. We think he will get back to a reasonable level, but right now he is not even at a quarter of his usual strength. “My parents took the kids to see him and he had to say goodbye to them in case he doesn’t come through. “He said it was one of the hardest parts, because he doesn’t know if he’s going to come out of the surgery. “He was so relieved when he came out the first time, and now the poor bugger has got to go through it again.” Mrs Behmer said Peter and Casey also had to deal with the anxiety of being away from their children and not having any connections in Melbourne. “Elsie, their youngest, is three,” she said.

“She’s been without her parents for four weeks, and it looks like it might be another three months at least. “My parents have had to take on four young, energetic, active children. They need a medal at the end of this, I think.” With the cost of food, accommodation and other living expenses in Melbourne piling on top of the already stressed Stasinowskys, Mrs Behmer said she knew she had to do something. She organised a donation page for the Stasinowkys on crowdfunding website gofundme.com and appealed to Rainbow locals to help get the word out. Knowing the stoic Peter would be
embarrassed by a public outpouring, Mrs Behmer kept it secret from him. “I did it on a Saturday morning and turned off the computer and my phone, and said, ‘right, I’m going to garden for three hours so nobody can ring me up to tell me it’s a bad idea’,” she said. “I got back in and my phone had messages from Pete telling me not to do it, and I had messages from Casey telling me to ignore him and pretend I was at pilates.” Ultimately the page stayed up, and the Rainbow community responded with overwhelming generosity. “We’re so grateful for the Rainbow community helping out,” Mrs Behmer said. “I set an initial goal of $10,000 and thought if we get $5000 or anything, it would be absolutely great. The donations have been amazing, but people aren’t just giving their money, they’re coming around and trying to help. “People have been dropping off food and slices. It’s more than just money.” Mrs Behmer said the initial target of $10,000 had been set before confirmation Peter needed more surgery, meaning more donations were needed. “Realistically I think they need $20,000 to get them through with accommodation, fuel and living expenses to be in Melbourne for three months,” she said. “I think we’ll pull out all stops and see what we can get. The main thing is getting the word out and making sure Pete can get back home to his family.” • People can donate to the Stasinowsky family by visiting website www.gofundme.com/petesroadback torainbow.

Festival return to streets
87 Stawell Road Horsham
BY COLIN MacGILLIVRAY
A
Meet Richard ‘Wombat’
rarat Jailhouse Rock Festival will celebrate its 25th anniversary with a return to the streets at the weekend.
The popular celebration of rock ’n’ roll, vintage cars and all things 1950s has been at Ararat’s Alexandra Oval for the past two years due to refurbishment works at Ararat Town Hall and along the city’s main street. Festival president Greg Dalmayer said organisers had received negative feedback about hosting the festival on the oval, and had worked hard to ensure celebrations for the festival’s silver anniversary would be back on the street. “People were missing the streets, so on Saturday we’ll have a street party with the Grampians Vintage Car Club,” he said. “People used to like the fact they could park in the street with their cars and meet up with other people. “A lot of people come just to show their cars and get involved that way. “This year the whole weekend is based around involving the main street.” Mr Dalmayer said the 25th anniversary of the festival and return of the street party could boost attendance this year. He said the festival usually attracted between 1000 and 1500 people to Ararat, helping boost the region’s economy. “It’s always difficult to know exactly how many will come, but you run it and hope as many people as possible can get there,” he said. “Normally we run out of accommodation.” The festival will kick off on Friday with a motorsport parade hosted by Beat the Heat and Wimmera Off Street Drag Racing Club at 4pm. A barbecue at the town hall will be at 5pm, with a night cruise of Barkly Street at 7pm and a rock ’n’ roll dance at Ararat RSL from 7.30pm until late. The street party will dominate Saturday’s schedule from 9am to 2pm, with several attractions including a Miss Ararat Jailhouse Rock 2019 competition. “We’ll have some ladies spend a lot of time and effort to get glammed up in their 1950s gear,” Mr Dalmayer said. “They do a pin-up girls competition and there is an award for best dressed.” The festival will continue at different venues on Saturday night, with a 25th anniversary rock ’n’ roll dance at Ararat Town Hall with music from The Fender Benders, and a ‘Silver Cadillac Dance’ at

There will be more car displays, stalls and children’s entertainment, with dancing at the town hall on Sunday. Mr Dalmayer said he believed the festival had survived for 25 years because of the enduring popularity and mystique of the 1950s era. “Why do people still go to see Jersey Boys? Why do people still see some of these old groups?” he said. “That era is the baby boomers, and it’s the era that they grew up in. “I went to Ballarat last year and saw Herman’s Hermits, and I think the average age of the people there was somewhere in the 60s. “There were a lot of people there who were well into their 60s and still dancing and rock ’n’ rolling.” Mr Dalmayer said despite the festival’s

popularity with an older generation, organisers were making an effort to include young people in celebrations. “We do a colouring competition in schools, and next year we will look at running dance classes at schools to get them involved,” he said. “There are plenty of parents involved, but we also do get a lot of kids come along with their parents and get dressed up in rock ’n’ roll gear. “Maybe some people like an older style music that has got a beat to it. “Perhaps it makes them think back about better times. “I don’t know, but for me, I love rock ’n’ roll – I still think it’s the best music.” People can find more information about the Ararat Jailhouse Rock Festival on its Facebook page or by visiting website www.araratjailhouserockfestival.com.

The Australian wool market has recorded losses for the second consecutive series in Week 36. The national offering reduced slightly, 45,130 bales were available to the trade. A limited selection of good style wools with favourable additional measurement results and low vegetable matter (vm), came under intense pressure, as buyers fought hard to secure their share of these types. This strong competition meant that these better wools recorded very little change for the week. However, the bulk of the selection, was lesser style wools, and wools with poor additional measurement results. The large amount of these types meant that buyers struggled to average them into their purchases. The result was a continuing reduction in prices for these lots, by the end of the series these inferior types were selling at levels generally 30 to 60 cents below those achieved at the previous sale. These reductions played a large role in the overall fall in the individual merino Micron Price Guides (MPGs), which fell by 10 to 40 cents. The drop in the merino MPGs was the reason behind the AWEX Eastern Market Indicator (EMI) falling, the EMI fell by 8 cents, closing the week at 2,008 cents. It was only the strength of the other sectors that prevented the EMI from falling further. The crossbreds continue to track upward, prices generally rose by 15 to 30 cents, better prepared lines receiving the most attention and as a result enjoying the largest increases. The only exception was 30.0 micron which fell by around 20 to 30 cents. The strongest performing sector was the oddments, most types and descriptions rose by 20 to 50 cents, pushing the three carding indicators up by an average of 30 cents. Next week the national offering reduces again. Currently, there are 41,722 bales rostered for sale in Sydney, Melbourne and Fremantle.

Wimmera residents can report issues to their municipal councils with a new smartphone app. The free Snap Send Solve app allows users to report issues such as fallen trees, potholes, dumped rubbish, cracked pavements and graffiti. Users can take a photo of any issue they come across and make notes about it before sending it directly to the council. The app will automatically tag the location the request is sent from and send it directly to the appropriate authority. Developers of the app said it would eliminate the complexity of knowing how and where to report issues to a council. It will also make it easier for councils to act on issues quickly. Northern Grampians Shire Council mayor Kevin Erwin said the council was encouraged to use the app as part of a review of roads, rates and rubbish. “The app has been around for a little while and we encourage the community to download it to have handy in case they come across any issues while out and about,” he said. “When they send through their issue it will either be actioned and solved by council, or passed on to the appropriate authority if that particular issue is not managed by us.” People can download Snap Send Solve from the App Store or Google Play, or visit website www.snapsendsolve.com for an online version.
Information for small business A joint project between Northern Grampians Shire Council and Small Business Victoria will help prospective small-business owners in the shire. The Better Approvals Project will help council staff make the regulatory process of opening or expanding a small business easier and more efficient. The council hosted a free launch event to give prospective St Arnaud small-business owners more information last night, and will host another session tonight at Stawell Town Hall from 6.15pm. Mayor Kevin Erwin said the program had helped council officials eliminate red tape. “Anything we can do to make the process of starting a small business easier, is obviously a good thing,” he said. “The changes in the process have been borne out of feedback we received from our community, and we encourage those who are even just thinking about starting a business, to come along to the free information session.” A new council permit support team will act as a single point of contact for people looking to start or expand a small business. People can reserve a space for tonight’s Stawell information session online at www.eventbrite. com.au/o/northern-grampians-shire-council18942258088 or by calling Northern Grampians Shire Council on 5358 8700.

Horsham delights in saleyard money
H
orsham municipal leaders have welcomed $1.49-million in Federal Government funding that will allow construction of a roof over Horsham Regional Livestock Exchange to start this year.
Horsham Rural City Council has also committed $1.54-million to the $3.03-million project that involves building a roof over all 23,400 square metres of the Burnt Creek saleyards. The council has listed weather protection for livestock, staff members, agents and buyers, improved livestock quality, carbon-emission reductions and reduced cleaning and maintenance costs as key long-term benefits in building the roof. The upgrade will also include the installation of LED lighting and solar panels, and an ability to harvest water for re-use on site. Council chief executive Sunil Bhalla said the project would help Horsham maintain its status as the major regional livestock exchange for the Wimmera and southern Mallee. “We certainly appreciate the commitment from the Federal Government and thank our consultant team, which assisted us with the strategic planning and business-case preparation,” he said. “Roofing of the facility was identified as the key priority in a master plan completed in 2018 and the subsequent business case identified in detail the significant merit of the proposal.
“It’s pleasing to see the planning and advocacy work come to fruition.” Mr Bhalla said the council would call for tenders with an aim to start construction in the middle of this year. Horsham mayor Mark Radford said the project was a great opportunity for Wimmera construction employment and the supply of steel and roofing materials. He thanked the Federal Government for the funding and for showing confidence in the Horsham community to take charge of the project. “It is an important part of our economy and one of Victoria’s main livestock-selling centres,” he said. “Just on 20 years ago, the Livestock Exchange was moved out of central Horsham to its current site at Burnt Creek. “The facility is well staffed by good people with a passion for what they do.” The saleyards are home to Victoria’s fourth-largest sheep and lamb market and the major livestock-selling centre in the Wimmera. It attracts vendors from as far away as South Australia and southern New South Wales. Producers have sold sheep and lambs at the site every Wednesday since the saleyards opened in December 1999. Federal Regional Services Minister Bridget McKenzie announced the funding as part of a broad package for the region at Wimmera Machinery Field Days.
Youth alcohol culture in spotlight Wimmera Drug Action Taskforce and Horsham Rural City Council’s Youth CAN Project will host a forum on youth alcohol culture in Horsham later this month. The ‘It’s OK to say NO’ information night will be at Coughlin Park community centre on March 29 at 6pm. The free session will focus on the supply of alcohol to teenagers and include a video presentation from young people depicting their view on youth alcohol culture in Horsham. Former Horsham footballer Alistair Mitchell, who has struggled with alcohol, drug and mental health issues, will be a guest speaker. Horsham Police and Uniting Wimmera representatives will also make presentations and Wednesday, March 13, 2019
form part of a question and answer panel. A light supper will be supplied for attendees. Wimmera Drug Action Taskforce co-ordinator Sally Pymer said the session would open discussion about teenage drinking. “Young people are delaying their first drink of alcohol, which is very positive, but according to recent research by Dr Belinda Reeve from Sydney University there are still some alarming figures,” she said. “Of teenagers aged 12 to 17, 9.1 percent of males and 6.8 percent of females exceed adult guidelines for single occasion drinking. “The brain continues to develop until around the age of 25, so teenagers can be at in-
creased risk of harms. These include violence, unintentional injuries, depression and negative effects on neurological functioning. “Alcohol consumption among young people also increases the risk of alcohol dependency later in life and is also associated with a number of health conditions such as cardiovascular disease, cancer and liver disease. “The best advice is to delay drinking for as long as possible.” People can book tickets online at bit.ly/itsokinfonight.

Horsham and District Relay For Life Involved
Stawell and Horsham Toyota
Number of participants in team: About 14 so far. Last year we had lots of people turn up on the night. Team leader: Mary Dalgleish. Number of years participating: This will be our second. Reasons for participating: We started this team for people, usually older participants, who come along without a team and just want to walk – it gives them a team to be a part of. We’re all walking because we’ve been touched by cancer in some way. It’s a great community event. Fundraisers planned: We don’t have anything at the moment. Usually we have a cake stall on the night, but it’s more about getting people to participate. Team members pay the $35 for registrations and that goes towards Cancer Council. Age range of team members: 16 to 70.
Mary Dalgleish and Maree Becker.
Number of participants in team: 11. Team leader: Maddison Ruwoldt. Number of years participating: This is our first year. Reasons for participating: We have had a few staff members pass away at the start of this year and late last year, so we thought we’d make a team and support the event and a good cause. Fundraisers planned: We have not done any fundraisers yet and are still in discussion about what we might do on the night. Age range of team members: 13 and up.
Maddie Ruwoldt, left, Barbie Folkes, Ian Anderson and Brendan Wilson.

Team Marco’s Family and Friends Number of participants in team: 22. Team leader: Maria Marchesini. Number of years participating: We’ve been participating since 2001. Reasons for participating: We have had cancer affect us personally, with various family members passing away, and we have many close friends and workmates who have been affected. In 2016, Ms Marchesini was also diagnosed with thyroid cancer, though things are all positive at the moment. Fundraisers planned: We do a lot of baking and make homemade sauces, relishes, chutneys and jams which we sell at Haven markets. We also attend two to three markets at Natimuk and whatever we sell goes straight to the cancer cause. We have had people and friends on the sideline donate apricots and figs to help this year. Age range of team members: 10 to 91.

Horsham and District Relay For Life
Crute: ‘You’ve got to fight’ T
BY LOTTE REITER
hirty-year-old James Crute is gripped in a battle against cancer.
PERMANENT REMINDER: James Crute’s patchwork of tatoos is the result of multiple surgeries to remove a cancerous growth on his ribcage. Picture: PAUL CARRACHER
Diagnosed with sarcoma, a type of tissue cancer, Mr Crute, from Dadswells Bridge, endured five weeks of radiation therapy and multiple operations last year to remove a growth he discovered on his ribcage. Mr Crute had found the small lump in March, 2018, and watched it grow ‘to the size of a softball’ by July. “Blokes being blokes I thought nothing about it,” he said. “It took me months to even tell my partner that the lump was there.” Earlier this year Mr Crute returned to the operating room for special cancer surgery, as well as reconstructive surgery. Surgery involved replacing affected skin on his chest with a section from his upper right thigh. “It’s quite interesting with the tattoos,” he said. “There is a bit of patchwork going on.” Latest test results have returned ‘negative’ for Mr Crute, but his journey has left a lasting impact beyond physicality. “In the first week it was just hard,” Mr Crute said about his cancer treatment. “You go in there yourself and you’re like ‘yeah, I’m doing it tough’, then
you see a little three or four year old walk in to have chemo treatment and you just go: ‘no, I’m fine, I’m doing great’. “That was a struggle. That’s what hit me the most. “It makes you think that there’s got to be something else you can do.” Mr Crute said support from his community as well as other men and patients he met through treatment inspired him to become involved in Relay for Life this year. “When I was in hospital, I posted on the Facebook group ‘Blokes Advice’ and had men personally get in contact and say they were getting a lump checked out,” he said. “It’s very humbling, just from putting yourself out there. That’s why I had to get behind something. I couldn’t just sit back.” Mr Crute said he believed the power in small communities was a major regional asset, with events such as Relay for Life able to make a big difference for cancer patients and their carers. “The community has been absolutely amazing,” he said. “We can band together for a good cause.” But Mr Crute said society still had a way to go. He said while Horsham had recently opened a Wimmera cancer treatment centre, there remained a disconnect
between country Victoria and the ‘city’. “It’s about how far you’ve got to travel,” he said. “If you’re having major treatment, it gets a bit frustrating. You’re five hours away from Melbourne and sometimes it involves getting a phone call two days before you need to go in.” Mr Crute said he hoped to see more prominent doctors visit the region and take note of what progress was still needed. “A lot of them don’t know we exist,” he said. “If they could take a little bit of time to come down to the country and just see how tough we’re doing it down here – I’d love to see that happen.” Nevertheless, Mr Crute is walking strong this Relay for Life at Dock Lake Reserve. He hopes to keep up his fight against cancer as part of the Dadswells Dawdlers team, which has already raised more than $3000. He was also quick to reveal a positive mental attitude about his fight against the disease. “I’m not going to have any of this. I’ve got more life to live,” he said. “Don’t ever let anything kick you down in life. You’ve got to stand strong. “The one thing I’ve learnt from this is that you’ve got to fight.”

Stawell Performing Arts Company has officially recognised Connor Williams and Saige Omernik – the first graduates of its Young Ones program. The company established the program in 2012 to build skills and performance opportunities for people aged between seven and 17. Connor and Saige were among the first enrolments and stayed with the program to the upper age limit. Company officials recognised their contribution to the program at an annual meeting. Young Ones leader and SPACi president Dianne Stewart said she was extremely proud of the pair. “They have truly grown and developed their talents over their time in the program,” she said. “They have become confident performers able to step up to solo singing and acting roles not only in the Young Ones program but in SPACi’s all-ages stage performances as well.’ The two graduating Young Ones will remain involved in performing arts in Stawell and have taken on roles of responsibility with SPACi.

Horsham Country Music Festival Final festival set to be biggest, best F
Mr Wheaton said Wimmera performers would entertain from 10am to 3.30pm and pave the way for a 6.30pm start for a huge tribute night. “The crowd will be amazed at how well performers pay tribute to some of the legends of country music. It is superb,” he said. The festival reaches a crescendo on Saturday, starting with a popular busking competition at Horsham Plaza, featuring 18 buskers. Mr Wheaton said the plaza would be overflowing with fans and it was a good idea for people to get there early. “The busking competition is all about non-professionals, so people can expect fun, frivolity and a mix of talent,” he said. “What’s wonderful about this is that it often unearths some amazing talent that can far exceed expectations and blow people away.”
BY DEAN LAWSON
ans from across the region and beyond are set to stream into Horsham next week for what looms as the biggest Horsham Country Music Festival in the event’s 12-year history.
Festival co-ordinator Lyall Wheaton said news that the festival would be Horsham Country Music Association’s last had sparked enormous statewide and interstate interest. He said organisers had, in response, ensured the best possible musical lineup to perform at the March 21 to 24 event. “We’ve had calls from country-music fans from all over place, particularly from right across Victoria and South Australia,” he said. “They all want to know what’s happening, who’s playing and generally how they can get the most from the experience.” Mr Wheaton said expectations were that the festival would take a different shape to other years. “We’re not sure if the main day on Saturday will be significantly larger as far as the crowd goes,” he said. “But indications are that people are keen to take as much in as possible, which suggests a broad spread across many segments. “This year has by far been our best artist line-up in the years we have been presenting the event. “We have basically selected the best artists from the first 11 years.

determined to make sure the festival is a wonderful experience for patrons. “The line-up includes artists from right across the country, including Queensland.” Mr Wheaton said if patrons wanted

to get the most from the festival they could start early and experience all four days of performances. “It’s a big extended weekend and there’s a lot to soak up,” he said. “There are many opportunities to pick and choose from or people can challenge themselves. It can be tiring but is always worth it.” The festival format will be similar to other years, with ‘a few slight changes’ including a relaxed start on March 21 with walk-up performances from 3.30pm at Horsham Riverside Caravan Park. Musical entertainment then ramps up at Horsham Soundshell in nearby Sawyer Park with an official welcome and a Bush Balladeers concert. Friday entertainment represents perhaps the only major change with Wimmera artists shifting from a traditional venue at Roberts Place in Horsham’s shopping heart to festival headquarters at the soundshell.
The busking event is the prelude to the ACE Radio Country Music Spectacular – a nine-hour concert featuring some of the best performers on the traditional country-music circuit. “There is a wonderful mix of acts and it will be hard for patrons to not find something they would enjoy,” Mr Wheaton said. The festival will push into Sunday, starting with a free Country and Bush Poet Walk Up at Wimmera Lakes Caravan Park before a Gospel Music Marathon from 11am, again at the soundshell. The gospel event will lead into a festival finale from 1.30pm to 4pm, where many of the artists who have performed during the weekend will return for a big finish. But it doesn’t end there. Sunday night dinner shows at Horsham RSL and Glen Logan and Toy’s Chinese restaurants will follow, shutting the final page on event. Mr Wheaton said much of the event would shift to Wimmera Events Centre at Longerenong in the event of wet weather.

Horsham Country Music Festival Wimmera talent on big stage A
popular ‘local artist’s section at Horsham Country Music Festival will be at Horsham Soundshell at Sawyer Park this year.
The local artists segment, featuring homegrown country music talent from across the region, has traditionally been in Roberts Place in Horsham’s central business district. Festival co-ordinator Lyall Wheaton said the unavailability of $2 all-day parking arrangements in place for previous festivals had prompted the move. He said despite the shift from the area, patrons would now be able to experience regional talent on show on the big stage of the soundshell. “There are a lot of talented artists from across the Wimmera and this is an ideal opportunity to let them showcase their skills,” he said. The local artists segment will be between 10am and 3.30pm on the Friday of the festival and admission for this section of the program is free of charge. This year 11 artists from across the Wimmera will each perform for 30 minutes. Timetable: 10am, 2P’s from Horsham; 10.30am, Big Bad John, St Arnaud; 11am Christine Johnson, Stawell; 11.30am, Voices of the Wimmera, Horsham; noon, John Butcher, Warracknabeal; 12.30pm, Leo Tellefson, Donald; 1pm, Sandra Loats, Rupanyup; 1.30pm, Lawrance Country, Horsham; 2pm, Ron Pannan, Natimuk; 2.30pm, Robyn Norton, Serviceton; and 3pm Vanessa Warra, Hynes Reserve.

Program to continue H
orsham Country Music Association will continue to organise regular dinner and ‘morning melody’ shows after Horsham Country Music Festival.
Festival co-ordinator Lyall Wheaton said a passion remained among committee members for country music despite confirming next week’s festival would be their last. “The committee really has mixed feelings that the festival will be its last,” he said. “We’re all pleased we’ve been able run a successful festival for 12 years, but naturally disappointed that age and health have caught up with us. “We would hope that despite the festival not continuing into the future under the current administration that patrons will continue to strongly support our shows at Horsham RSL. “Traditional country music is such an intrinsic part of Australian regional culture and we’re keen

to see it continue into the future across the region. “Anyone who has grown up with a love of this music would be well aware that it becomes part of their life and part of what makes them tick.” ACE Radio Broadcasters, through The Weekly Advertiser, 3WM and MIXX FM, has long been a major supporting partner for the event, which has forged an annual place in Horsham’s events calendar. Apart from providing entertainment, the festival has generated thousands of dollars for the regional economy.
Downing to headline
P
opular Brisbane country music artist Laura Downing is a major headline act at the 12th and final Horsham Country Music Festival.
Downing is a champion yodeller and also writes and sings her own songs as well as singing bush and contemporary country ballads. The songstress will be making her sixth appearance at Horsham Country Music Festival, appearing on Thursday, March 21, to sing bush ballads, Friday, March 22 to perform a tribute to Loretta Lynne and then singing two sets on a big ACE Spectacular on Saturday, March 23.
Festival favourite
T
amworth country music artist Brian Letton will be among visiting performers this year.
He joins a variety of performers helping Horsham Country Music Association farewell the annual event. Letton writes and sings about his country and fellow man – of the things he knows, understands, loves and believes. His songs have won him Australian and international acclaim. He has had a succession of top10 radio hits and nominations for prestigious Country Music Awards of Australia. He has been a finalist in the awards on 16 occasions.

Busking a highlight
B
uskers are set to play a prominent role in Horsham Country Music Festival.
Interest in a Horsham Plaza Busking Competition has always been considerable and this year has been no exception. As soon as officials released festival details last year all available places in the competition quickly filled. Festival co-ordinator Lyall Wheaton said busking was an integral part of traditional country music and was delighted with the response.
“All 18 spots were filled very early. We have nine returning acts and nine who will be competing for the first time,” he said. “We even have a duo from Bribie Island in Queensland competing, which is fantastic.” The busking competition, which has a habit of unearthing rare talent, is in the Horsham Plaza on the Saturday morning of the festival. Competition starts at 9.30am and participants will be competing for three prizes – Best Busker; Most Popular Busker; and a Busking Encouragement Award. Wednesday, March 13, 2019

Horsham Country Music Festival
Spectacular at festival heart H
Three big shows
orsham Country Music Festival organisers have responded to demand for a big bookend finish to the event.
I
f there is one event that stamps itself as a must-attend for Horsham Country Music Festival fans it is the ACE Radio Country Music Spectacular. Part of a big Saturday of entertainment at Horsham Soundshell, the spectacular includes nine hours of non-stop country music. Throughout the festival’s 11-year history the flagship presentation has attracted crowds of between 800 and 1000 people. The ACE Radio Country Music Spectacular starts at 1pm and finishes at 10pm, and is a mighty showcase of all the performers taking part across three days of traditional country music. Artists performing in this year’s spectacular include Laura Downing and Kiara Rodrigues from Brisbane, Johanna Hemara and Brian Letton from Tamworth, Dwayne Elix from Sydney, Peter Coad and the Coad Sisters from Bundanoon in New South Wales and Victorians Sandie Dodd, Col Perkins, Justin Standley, Don Costa, Trevor Keilar and Lachie and Georgia McGennisken. Festival co-ordinator Lyall Wheaton said the spectacular, proudly sponsored by ACE Radio Broad-
As a result of the popularity of Sunday night dinners and shows that traditionally finish the festival, the event’s committee have increased Sunday night venues from two to three. Committee chairman Colin Morrell said Glen Logan restaurant had joined Horsham RSL and Toy’s Garden Restaurant at the March 24 dinner-show venues. He said artists set to perform at Horsham RSL were Justin Standley, Rod and Rhonda Owens and ‘Lachie and Georgia’. Glen Logan’s artists were Don Costa and Lawrence Country and artists at Toy’s were Dwayne Elix and Johanna Hemara. Mr Morrell said doors would open at 5.30pm for pre-dinner drinks, meals would be served from 6pm and entertainment would start at 7pm.

Opportunity for all
H 12.30pm and admission is $30 for people attending all day or $20 for people arriving after 6pm. Horsham Country Music committee chairman Colin Morrell urged country music fans from the Wimmera to support the spectacular and festival overall. “It represents the end of an era and while it will be sad, we want everyone to enjoy themselves and
casters, was a backbone event of the festival and a primary attraction of the four-day event. “We’re expecting a record crowd, not just at the spectacular, but the festival as a whole,” he said. “Considering this is the last festival under the current format in Horsham, there has been an obvious groundswell of support.” Gates for the spectacular open at
make the most of the entertainment,” he said. Horsham Soundshell is specifically designed for large-scale outdoor concerts and events. Horsham Country Music Festival has based its headquarters at the site since the festival’s inception and fully exploited the ideal shellbased acoustics and extensive lawn and river environs on offer.
orsham Country Music Festival will offer two opportunities for country music artists and bush poets of all abilities to perform at this year’s festival. Festival co-ordinator Lyall Wheaton confirmed walk-up events at Riverside Caravan Park and Wimmera Lakes Caravan Park. He said Riverside Caravan Park Walk Ups, for musical artists, would be on March 21 from 3.30pm to 5.30pm, while the Wimmera Lakeside Caravan Park Walk Ups, for bush poets, would be on March 24 from 8.45am to 10am. People keen to sing or recite poetry need to register with the master or ceremony on the day.

On and off for algal blooms R
esults from busy blue-green algae-monitoring programs across the region continue to frustrate recreational water enthusiasts.
Despite conditions prompting authorities to lift algae warnings at some lakes and impoundments, they are generating new or persistent warnings at others. GWMWater has confirmed an outbreak of toxic blue-green algae is over for Lake Toolondo south of Horsham. But Vic Emergency warnings are in place at Lake Charlegrark near Goroke and further west at Mullinger Swap Wildlife Reserve on the South Australian border and Lake Bolac, south of Ararat. GWMWater issued a statement late last week detailing how blue-green algae levels at Toolondo no longer posed a health risk to recreational activities such as boating, fishing and swimming. Authorities have detected high levels at Lake Charlegrark since mid-January and
expect the bloom to remain until significant rain flushes the lake or cool weather slows algal growth. Warning signs at the lake outline how people should avoid direct contact with water from the lake or using the water for cooking, drinking, washing of showering. Boiling water does not make it safe to use. The same message applies to Lake Bolac and Mullinger Swamp. Blue-green algae, which is actually a microscopic bacteria called cyanobacteria and responsible for oxidising the planet millions of years ago, occurs naturally in many Australian waters. Changes to environmental circumstances can generate population explosions or ‘blooms’ and a subsequent range of problems. Primary health issues involving humans and other animals are related to cyanobacteria releasing potentially harmful cyanotoxin into water, often when the organism dies.
Kealy concerned over bail Member for Lowan Emma Kealy has described an attack on police as an attack on every Victorian. Ms Kealy was commenting in reference to a court decision to grant bail to people allegedly involved in a violent attack on police officers in St Kilda, Melbourne. “Daniel Andrews promised to fix the bail system. Victorians will be surprised to learn of the decision to allow people back on the street considering the incident in-
volved the shocking and sickening bashing of two police officers,” she said. “After too many tragedies, Premier Daniel Andrews promised to fix the bail system. He must immediately explain to the Victorian community why his justice system has allowed this. “An attack on police is an attack on every Victorian and the community is sick and tired of our first responders being used as punching bags.”
THAT’S WHAT IT’S LIKE: A delighted Jill Fiscalini of Stawell won Horsham Harness Racing Club’s Ownerforaday competition at The Weekly Advertiser Horsham Pacing Cup last year.

Chance to become a horse ‘owner’ The Weekly Advertiser Horsham Pacing Cup meeting on March 31 will again provide a rare opportunity for patrons to become an ‘owner for a day’. With the countdown underway for the community-racing event, Horsham Harness Racing Club is presenting the promotion after successfully debuting the it last year. The promotion gives patrons an opportunity to experience the thrill and excitement of ‘owning’ a horse, watching it compete on race day, share in the highs of being a winner or taste the disappointment of what could have been. Club president Justin Lane said ‘Ownerforaday’ endeavoured to promote harness racing and encourage future involvement in the sport.
Adult patrons on Cup Day are eligible to enter the competition, with up to 11 individual ‘owners’ drawn at 2pm. The ‘owners’ then participate in the draw for a starter in the $7000 Dunn-Ezy Seed Cleaning Ownerforaday Pace and will have the opportunity to chat to their trainer and driver and get up close and personal with their horse in the stable area before the race. They will also have access to a dedicated owners enclosure, which includes free drinks and finger foods. The winning Ownerforaday will pocket a cheque for $3990 – the same sum the ‘real’ owner of the horse will receive. Dunn-Ezy Seed Cleaning is on board as sponsor of the competition. Mr Lane said sport needed
grass-roots interest and participation to survive and thrive. “We believe this competition ticks the boxes in getting people involved,” he said. “We invite everyone to get his or her backside trackside on March 31 to enjoy a great social day out and have a crack at becoming a Dunn-Ezy Ownerforaday.” Mr Lane said The Weekly Advertiser Horsham Pacing Cup meeting would also have plenty of free children’s activities and competitions, a TAB punters club and Wimmera musicians Darryn Wardle and Jeff Woodward would provide musical entertainment. One child will also have an opportunity to win an iPad mini. – Tony Logan

FRIENDLY: Riley Hateley gets up close with an alpaca at the Field Days.
AWARDED: Landmark Horsham team members Josh Mahoney, Jordan Lee, Travis Hair, Matt Beddison and Oliver Smith with their site award at Wimmera Machinery Field Days.
Twilight success A
Tuesday night Twilight Ag Expo appears set to become an integral part of Wimmera Machinery Field Days at Longerenong.
Field days manager Murray Wilson said the first year of a two-year twilight experiment had been a success, with people making the most of extended hours and activities. He said just under 2000 patrons passed through the gates at Wimmera Events Centre free of charge after 3pm on the Tuesday of the event, confirming the value of the concept. “The Field Days overall were really good and we were most impressed with the success of the Twilight Ag Expo. We expected it to go well and weren’t disappointed,” he said. “We had a lot of people come through the gates between 3pm and 6pm and as soon as they were here they relaxed and enjoyed themselves. “As well as soaking up the entertainment, they were checking things out and we had good feedback from exhibitors. We still had people trading in our Lifestyle Pavilion after 8pm. “The addition met and even exceeded our expectations and the public response definitely cements the decision we had already made for 2020. “It might become an integral part of the Field Days leading into the future. “We had some Horsham district people who had previously never had a chance to attend the Field Days come for the first time. “On top of that we had people come who hadn’t been for between five and 10 years. They came purely as a result of a new opportunity to attend.” Mr Wilson said the Field Days were an overall success, with again about 15,000 people attending across the three days. “We basically had a similar crowd through the gate as we did in 2017 and 2018, but we had more exhibitors and more schools visiting this year,” he said.
“Some exhibitors had strong leads and others didn’t and that’s just what happens, but what we’re seeing is a change in direction from many. We’re seeing exhibitors working more towards establishing business-client relationships, meeting people and sharing information more than direct selling off their sites.” Mr Wilson said the success of this year’s Field Days provided a committee confidence to continue pushing ahead. “We will look at the Twilight AG Expo and how we might extend it into the evening and also look at layout of site, which we had a lot of good feedback about,” he said. “We always have a challenge with indoor sites. We were at capacity this year and might need to explore how we can offer more indoor space and that might involve strategic planning for the entire site.”

People urged to ‘Dob in a Dealer’
L
aw-enforcement authorities have appealed to Wimmera people to help police tackle illicit drug dealing in the region by reporting what they see or know about a crime.
Crime Stoppers Victoria and Victoria Police are working on disrupting the manufacture and supply of drugs in the region as part of a national ‘Dob in a Dealer’ campaign. The Federal Government is funding the program in a major effort to stop Australia’s supply chain of illicit drugs including methylamphetamine, cocaine, MDMA, heroin and cannabis. Crime Stoppers, police and community leader and Horsham councillor Pam Clarke launched a Wimmera awareness campaign as part of the program at Horsham Police Station. Crime Stoppers Victoria representative Srithar Visuasam said the Wimmera community played an important role in circumventing drug supply in the region. “Criminal drug activity not only results in millions of dollars being spent on healthcare and law enforcement, but it is tragically and unnecessarily costing human life,” he said. “We know at Crime Stoppers that information
provided by the community plays an active role in solving crime, so please get behind this campaign and report what you know.” Horsham police Detective Senior Sergeant Dave Ellis reinforced the importance of the community in stopping illicit drug supply and distribution in the area. “We have seen first-hand the harmful effects illicit drugs have had on people in the Horsham district community,” he said. “The safety of our residents is of utmost importance to us and any information you have regarding the supply and distribution of illicit drugs can be very helpful. “Information received from the public has proven to assist police in identifying the traffickers of illicit drugs in our community “Through Dob in a Dealer, we are not asking you to tell on your friends. We are asking you to support those you care about by submitting your anonymous reports through Crime Stoppers.” People with information about someone who is manufacturing or dealing drugs can call Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000 or report online at www.crimestoppers.com.au. People who provide information can remain anonymous.
Vintage folk duo set to ‘raise the roof ’ A Michigan-based duo is set to ‘breathe new life’ into vintage folk and roots music tonight at Ararat Hotel’s Red Room. Laurel Premo and Michael Beauchamp formed Red Tail Ring in 2009 and have four full-length studio releases under their name. The pair will entertain listen-
ers from 8pm with a re-imagination of Americana music and ‘pure soul’ as part of Ararat Live’s concert series. Red Tail Ring’s original music features the fiddle, banjo, guitar and mandolin to create their unique sound. Since October 2010, notfor-profit group Ararat Live
has brought international and Australian music performers to venues in Ararat, and provided song writing and musical workshops to regional students. People can buy tickets for Red Tail Ring for $20 at the door.
ANTICS: Seven aerial acrobats and a 30-metre-long rope make up By A Thread.
Acrobats hang ‘By A Thread’ The importance of trust will be the subject of an acrobatic performance at Horsham Town Hall on March 27. Production ‘By A Thread’, involving seven aerial acrobats and a length of rope, will feature a diverse cast ranging from street buskers to dancers who will perform counterweight acrobatics. The live circus show uses a 30-metre-long rope, tying together ‘the give and take’ of everyday relationships with the physical movement of cast members on stage.
Described as a ‘comment on life’ by one reviewer, managing company One Fell Swoop hopes the show will explode the traditional boundaries of circus works in a merge of classic techniques and rich dramatic perspectives. Performance promoters say audience members can experience striking tableaux and breath-taking dynamics. “The actions of one acrobat affect and implicate the movements of others in a precise negotiation of cause and effect.”
‘By A Thread’ will continue to perform at venues across the state, including Ararat Town Hall on April 2, with shows at 11am and 7.30pm. A school performance in Horsham for students will begin at 10.30am, with a general public performance at 8pm. People can buy tickets at Horsham Town Hall Theatre. Bookings can also be made online at www.horshamtownhall.com.au. Tickets for Ararat’s show can be purchased online at www.ararattownhall. com.au.

VW goes retro Volkswagen expands electric vehicle family with dune-blasting ID Buggy concept
V
olkswagen has added a 1960s-style dune buggy to its ID family of electric vehicles in its latest attempt to reference the automotive past while moving into the zero-emissions future.
Dubbed ID Buggy, the minimalist concept was revealed at the Geneva motor show last week with a striking exterior paintwork combination of lime green, black and grey, punctuated by four distinct red tow hooks. By reinterpreting the iconic vehicle
type, the ID Buggy’s aluminium, steel and plastic body goes without a fixed roof and doors, while its waterproof cabin’s two-seat layout can be converted into a four-seater. The exterior has prominent circular headlights and tail-lights that are in keeping with the ID Buggy name, while the lime-green-accented fivespoke wheels are wrapped in chunky BF Goodrich All-Terrain TA tyres. Pitched by the German brand as a ‘vehicle for summer, on the beach or in the city’, the ID Buggy is based on
Volkswagen Group’s modular electric drive matrix platform that underpins the four other ID models that preceded it. In this case, the concept uses an underfloor high-voltage lithium-ion battery pack and a 150kW electric motor mounted on the rear axle. Volkswagen says a second drive unit could be added up front in the future to provide all-wheel drive. The European auto giant is keen to make modular electric-drive matrix accessible to rival car-makers in need
of EV architecture, with Ford Motor Company notably already exploring the possibility as part of its recently announced alliance with the Volkswagen Group. This offer also now extends to the ID Buggy, with the company saying third parties, such as start-ups and smallseries manufacturers, can build dune buggies based on the concept. Volkswagen brand chief operating officer Ralf Brandstatter said the ID Buggy demonstrated the broad spectrum of emission-free mobility that
could be achieved with the modular electric-drive matrix within the Volkswagen brand. “We want to open up the platform for third-party suppliers,” he said. The ID Buggy has joined the ID hatch, Paris 2016; ID Buzz van, Detroit 2017; ID Crozz SUV, Shanghai 2017; and ID Vizzion sedan, Geneva 2018; as EV concepts revealed by the company at motor shows in recent years. – Justin Hilliard

Kia confirms Optima demise
K
ia Motors Australia has confirmed it plans to kill off the slow-selling Optima mid-sized sedan by the end of this year in an apparent cull of under-performing models and variants as it clears the deck for its new breed of vehicles.
The company also has no plans to continue with petrol-engine variants of the Soul small crossover wagon beyond this year, instead moving forward with only the full-electric version in the new-generation Soul as part of its battery-powered vehicle push from January 2020. Product planners are also looking at the viability of four-cylinder variants of the rear-wheel-drive Stinger large sedan, with Australian customers overwhelmingly choosing the V6 GT version. A new small SUV to compete in the hot-selling compact SUV segment and two electric vehicles are among the fresh faces set to replace the duds in the range within the next 12 months. With only 54 sales in the first two months of this year, Optima volume is down 42.6 percent on the same period of 2018, continuing a downward spiral that has been going on for several years. Kia Motors Australia chief operating officer Damien Meredith confirmed the Optima was on death row, saying
ON YOUR WAY: Kia has waved the white flag on the medium car segment, signalling that its Optima sedan will be euthanised in the Australian market before the end of this year. it would ‘very probably be gone by the end of this year’. He said the medium car segment had shrunk over time as customers shifted to SUVs, adding the segment had disappeared. Mr Meredith said he hoped Optima customers would shift to other models in the Kia range, such as the Sportage and Sorrento SUVs or the Stinger large sedan. The Optima demise comes as no shock, with Kia Motors Australia warning last year it was considering
the move. It follows the now-defunct Rondo small people-mover out of the range. Apart from battling shrinking popularity of medium cars, the Optima was also caught in a pincer from its Kia siblings, with the new Cerato sedan growing in size and the Stinger large sedan coming in over the top in 2017. Elsewhere in the Kia range, Soul sales are down 33.9 percent this year, following on from a 50 percent plunge last year. Kia Motors Australia plans to give
the boxy wagon one more chance as an electric vehicle, slipping it into the range alongside the e-Niro electric SUV, most likely as a price leader that will undercut every other EV on the market. The company sees no room for the petrol or hybrid versions of the Soul, as it has a new small SUV coming before the end of the year. The unnamed vehicle is expected to be unveiled in India in July, at least in its Indian guise. The international model will follow

at a later date, with Australian supplies coming from South Korea by the last quarter of this year. This SUV will sit below the Sportage in the Kia range and go up against Mitsubishi’s top-selling ASX and Kia sister company Hyundai’s Kona. Like the Optima, the flagship Stinger sedan operates in a shrinking market segment, with the collapse of the Australian car market contributing to a 33.8 percent fall in sales last year. Stinger went against the segment sales trend in 2018, with dealers unloading almost 2000 units last year to place the big Kia second behind the Holden Commodore. However, 92 percent of those Stingers were top-shelf V6 GTs, meaning only about 160 of the sales were achieved by the four-cylinder variety. Although Kia is at pains to say it has no immediate plans to knock the fourcylinder version on the head, it admits it is looking at the situation. Stinger sales are highest in Queensland, where the highly visible police highway patrol fleet of about 120 Stingers has helped to trigger sales among private buyers. The Northern Territory also has a fleet of eight Stingers. Mr Meredith said he had high hopes that the Victoria Police might make the switch to Stinger at some point. – Ron Hammerton

Rolls-Royce forecasts growth
olls-Royce Motor Cars chief executive Torsten MuellerOetvoes has forecast another record year of global sales and a return to growth in Australia.
This is despite difficult trading conditions and uncertainties brought with Brexit and trade negotiations between the United States and China – its two biggest markets. Mr Mueller-Oetvoes pointed to strong demand for the hallowed British brand’s first SUV, the Cullinan, orders for which now extend into the fourth quarter, as well as an influx of new customers – including increasingly younger buyers and women – as indicators of its continued success. He said he had no qualms about pushing Rolls-Royce to new heights in terms of global sales volume – up from a record 4107 deliveries last year – so long as it met the high expectations of its rich clientele. He said the Australian market could push up to about 50 sales this year after dropping 11.1 percent to 40 units in 2018. Mr Mueller-Oetvoes described last year’s decline in Australia, which equates to five units of the exclusive luxury cars, as ‘seasonal’ – more to do with delivery timing rather than slowing demand. He said the Australian market was
NEW HEIGHTS: Rolls-Royce forecasts record global sales, including growth in Australia. seen as stable and apparently immune to the current premium market downturn experienced by most major manufacturers. “It’s early days, but on the back of Cullinan, which was extremely well received here in Australia, I think we are going to see a great year again for us,” he said. “The Australian market is really, as far as I see, in a good shape for us, and the reason why you have seen us going slightly down from here to 2017 was just the availability of cars.
“I am pretty confident that we should see again a record year for RollsRoyce Motor Cars this year,” he said. Australia is Rolls-Royce’s fifth-biggest market in Asia behind China, Japan, South Korea and Hong Kong. Mr Mueller-Oetvoes emphasised that both Japan and Korean markets were growing tremendously well. “And we will also see, I bet, growth this year in Australia,” he said. This confidence comes despite turmoil in Britain with the Brexit negotiations, which have forced Rolls-
“We brought Phantom pretty late here into the Australian market last year, there were zero Cullinans in this market here at the end of the last year and so on, so it is just what I would call ‘seasonal’. “It’s not in any way affected by economic downturns or whatever – we don’t see that.” Asked whether slowing market conditions in various markets – including Australia – would impact the company’s sales results this year, Mr Mueller-Oetvoes said he did not think so.
Royce to prepare for a ‘hard’ Brexit arrangement which could see the UK give up full access to the European single market and instead take full control of its own borders, meaning new trade deals will need to be struck. He was also optimistic the company would not be thrown into chaos. “Given that Brexit and trade deals are not disrupting, in a bigger sense, the world, then I think we are in a good shape to do again a record year,” he said. As much as Mr Mueller-Oetvoes is pushing for more sales growth, the Goodwood factory is not capable of building more than 10,000 vehicles a year and the Rolls-Royce chief categorically ruled out entering lowerprice segments, introducing smaller powertrains than its staple V12 or building cars anywhere else in the world. “There is no chance in any way to expand production in Goodwood because we are sitting in an area of natural beauty and it’s an inbuilt guarantee for exclusivity,” he said. “If we would see even higher demands, then we would just raise prices. “I also think Rolls-Royce belongs to Britain. Full stop. Whatever comes. It’s part of the British culture.” – Terry Martin

Honour for stalwart
H
orsham lifetime tennis player, administrator and advocate Brian Breuer has won recognition from the sport’s peak body in Victoria.
Tennis Victoria presented Mr Breuer a highly commended service award, recognising his contribution to the game ‘through devoted and significant service’. To receive the award, recipients must have demonstrated exemplary and outstanding service to a club, centre or association for a significant period of continuous or broken time. Mr Breuer has been a member of the Central Park Club, formerly Methodist Tennis Club, since 1955, having started playing at 11. At 13 he stepped into senior ranks of tennis, when his usual Saturday afternoon game of cricket was cancelled due to bad weather. He played tennis for 38 years until an injured shoulder could no longer allow him to swing the racket how he wanted. Mr Breuer enjoyed his first senior grand final victory at 15, in 1957-58.
He has competed in club, association and regional events and tournaments, Melbourne Country Week and inter-town challenges, winning many trophies. Significant victories included a Wimmera pennant grand final in 1965-66, a 1974-75 Central Wimmera pennant grand final, and another pennant grand final in 1987-88 while playing with all four of his immediate family members. He has held administrative and official positions with the Presbyterian, Methodist, Church of England and Central Park clubs and Central Wimmera Tennis Association and Wimmera Tennis Council. He and his brother Ken have also been hands-on in establishing tennis infrastructure, initially building eight courts at the Central Park site on Horsham racecourse reserve. He has since been involved in the construction of six new courts. Mr Breuer remains on a Central Park Club committee and is also Horsham Racecourse LEADER: Horsham’s Brian Breuer has won management committee chair- recognition from Tennis Victoria, recognising his on-going contribution to the sport. man.
Lawn and Kees in tough tennis battle Saturday’s Central Wimmera Tennis Association pennant preliminary final will pit two of the most intriguing teams in the competition against one another. Horsham Lawn and Kalkee have each had inconsistent but at times brilliant seasons. Lawn was an early competition frontrunner, winning its first three matches including a convincing round-one victory against the Kees. After its strong start Horsham Lawn’s fortunes fluctuated and the team recorded five wins, five losses and a draw for the rest of the season. Conversely, Kalkee started its season shakily before posting four wins and a draw from its final six matches. The Kees won their way through to the preliminary final with a thrilling one-game victory against Drung South and are one of the in-form teams of the competition. Horsham Lawn convincingly won the first two meetings between the sides before Kalkee bounced back with an 11-sets-to-three victory in their most recent clash. Muddying the waters is the fact that one side was missing key players each time the teams met. The Kees missed players such as Jeff Friberg, Steve Schultz and
Paula Weidermann in the first two meetings, while Lawn faced the Kees without Graeme Wood, Jae McGrath and Cherie Wood in their round 11 clash. Both teams boast powerful men’s lineups, and the men’s singles section could go a long way towards determining the outcome of the preliminary final. Lawn’s Wood and Kalkee’s Schultz are among the best men’s players in the association. Wood has a perfect 10-0 record in singles rubbers and has won 80 percent of games during those rubbers. Schultz has played less than Wood this season, but his record is just as impressive. He is 4-0 in singles rubbers and has won a staggering 89 percent of his games. Friberg and Grant Schultz add even more firepower to the Kees’ men’s division, while Lawn’s Jae McGrath is an outstanding number two man behind Wood. Both team’s women will also play important roles in the contest. Cherie Wood is Lawn’s top female singles player, but Kalkee will rely on the solid doubles play of the likes of Melissa Beddison and Debbie Lawson to carry it to a potential grand final berth. – Colin MacGillivray

Netball Countdown
Warrack Eagles
Safety in numbers BY COLIN MacGILLIVRAY
W
arrack Eagles’ netballers were the class of Wimmera Netball Association’s A Grade competition in 2018. Until the finals came around.
The Eagles racked up an impressive 14-2 win-loss record and a dominant percentage of more than 190 during the home and away rounds. The team could easily have finished the season undefeated. Its two losses were both by two goals – to Minyip-Murtoa in round three and Horsham in round 13. With the minor premiership sewn up and a double chance in hand, the Eagles looked primed for a grand final assault. Instead, they were bundled out of the finals in straight sets. Returning co-coach Sarah Spicer said a confluence of unfortunate circumstances hampered the team’s finals run. Spicer was injured on the Thursday before the Eagles’ semi-final against Horsham, a game they lost by eight goals. “I’m not suggesting I was so vitally important on the court that we lost, but just mentally for some of the girls it might have impacted them not having our usual line-up,” she said.
“Then Horsham Saints were strengthened by the return of Rene Caris in the preliminary final. “We probably didn’t adjust to that well enough. “There were a few things out of our control, but you try to learn from it and hopefully we learn from it this season.” One factor sure to aid the Eagles this season is the return of nearly all of last year’s side. Zandria Malone, departed for Laharum in the Horsham District Football Netball League, is the team’s only loss. Spicer said continuity had aided Warrack for several years. “Continuity is good for us, and we’ve probably had that for the past eight years or so where the squad doesn’t change a hell of a lot,” she said. “You get to know each other’s game, and it helps a lot going into each season.” Spicer said Molly Stewart, who filled in for last year’s A Grade side despite being a 15-and-under player, would feature more regularly. Spicer said this year’s team was eager to atone for last season’s poor finals performance, but was not getting ahead of itself. She said the Eagles would take the

season as it came to them and aim to put themselves in the best position for finals, rather than setting any concrete goals at the outset. “There is no use setting expectations too high, we just have to give ourselves the best chance we can,” she said. “We want to put ourselves in the best position we can and see what happens. “Ideally we would finish top three and give ourselves a double chance. “Horsham Saints have shown the past two years that you only need to make the finals. “They were fifth last year and they won the grand final, so you just need to be there at the end of the year and anything can happen.”

Warrack Eagles
Juniors to bolster Eagles BY COLIN MacGILLIVRAY
T
he Warrack Eagles hierarchy hopes an emerging crop of talented junior players can help vault the club to a top-three finish and grand final contention in 2019.
The Eagles qualified for the finals last year with nine wins and seven losses, but their season came to an abrupt and painful end in the elimination final against Horsham Saints. Warrack had a three-goal lead at the final change but could not close the gate on the Saints and lost by six points despite registering four more scoring shots than its opponent. Senior co-coach Shannon Argall said the team believed it was capable of more than last year’s finals performance showed. “Last season was an underperformance for where we thought we were at,” he said. “All credit to the Saints, they found a way to beat us on the day, but we were bitterly disappointed with that. “We thought we could have gone a lot deeper, so we’re looking to build on last year and show our true potential.” Argall and club president Chris Taylor said promising junior players would help the Eagles improve from within.
and they’ll enable us to have a really defensive mindset.” The Eagles have lost Josh Bibby, Jack Wilson and Harry Trezise, but Argall said he was confident the team could still improve on last season. “We’re aiming first to play finals, but we know that if we get there, we’ll be in good stead to go deep in the finals,” he said. “The league is super competitive. It’s like nothing I’ve seen before. “You’re going to have some wins but you can turn up on an off day and anyone can give you a touch up. “I think we should be aiming for top three, but with the competitiveness of the league we really have to put our best foot forward. “We’ve had some really good players and a good core structure, but now with our own homegrown talent coming along through the junior program I think we’re ready to take the next step. “With the top sides like Saints and Horsham, their success has really been brought about by their juniors. “We think our kids coming through are showing that kind of promise and are going to be able to tear it up.”
“We’ve got some great junior development coming into our senior level this year,” Mr Taylor said. “Our younger players of last year are a year older and more experienced. “We’ve tried to concentrate on our junior development more than we have on trying to recruit from out of town. “Dane Stewart and Lachie Stewart both played senior football last season, Declan Powell is coming out of under-17 level and Charlie Penny is another one who is going to be a year older, more developed and ready to go.” The Eagles also targeted some familiar faces to help fill crucial positions in the line-up. Former Eagles ruckman Scott Adams returns to the club after playing for Charlton in the North Central Football League last year, while defenders Jayden Werner and Adam Schulz have come back after several seasons with Horsham District league team Jeparit-Rainbow. Argall said the trio would add depth and experience to the team. “We’re looking more of a balanced side,” he said. “They are high-quality players. Jayden Werner and Adam Schulz have played a lot in defence before

Keen to step up I
BY LOTTE REITER
f previous seasons are anything to go by, EdenhopeApsley will be far from timid about its upcoming 2019 season.
Though a devastating defeat to Laharum in a preliminary final last year knocked the Saints’ A Grade netballers off the court, new faces and a strong mindset might be what it takes to bolster the team and plunge it towards sought-after glory. Edenhope-Apsley is now a club that has sat on the cusp of a grandfinal and energy in the camp is sure to be racing. Edenhope-Apsley club president Carolyn Middleton said the club was very positive. “We have come into a new lease of life for both netball and football,” she said. Training began three weeks ago for the Saints’ netballers and A Grade coach Sarah Domaschenz said players were incorporating pilates and water sport into season preparations. “From a coaches perspective fitness is the main focus,” she said. “We’ll be doing skills and drills in practise and we are extending our training to the juniors, to develop them as well. “Everyone is very versatile, so it is
just figuring out the best positions. It is hard because everyone is so busy still.” A solid team dynamic is crucial for any team to thrive on court and Domaschenz said she was keen to see this grow with a change of players and plans to develop team bonding early. The A Grade team will lose Ashleigh Ryan, while goal defender Alex Lang has joined MinyipMurtoa. Wing defence Rachael Elmslie will also depart. Domaschenz remained positive, however, emphasising player numbers were still in the Saints’ favour. “It’s looking really healthy,” she said. “There are 12 to 13 possible A Graders at the moment. “It’s a pretty new team this year, we’ve got some new faces.” Among newcomers is Ellie Thomas, who will jointly lead A Grade with Domaschenz. Thomas’ return to EdenhopeApsley ends a decade-long break from the club. A two-time Riverland Netball Association A1 Grade best and fairest winner for Loxton North, Thomas is a coveted powerhouse the Saints are excited to bring home. “She played with us about 10 years ago,” Domaschenz said.
“There’s a pretty big buzz. She’ll bring plenty of experience and knowledge.” Ms Middleton said engaging Thomas would invigorate players. “People are pretty excited for her input,” she said. “It brings a positiveness to the club, having someone with fresh ideas.” Ms Middleton said she was anticipating a big year ahead at EdenhopeApsley, with positivity and excitement high after success last season. “Players are staying focused and determined. They’re thinking positive,” she said. “We’re focusing on our membership drive. We have our 20-year celebrations since the amalgam of Edenhope and Apsley and a few 10year reunions too. We’re all pretty excited.” Ultimately, it is a question of whether Edenhope-Apsley can finally push past its competition and steal that elusive end-of-season victory. Ms Middleton confirmed a club hunger to secure front-row seats. “We’re looking that one step forward – onto the main dance floor,” she said. Edenhope-Apsley netballers will have their first practise match against Naracoorte on March 21.

Edenhope-Apsley Saints
Saints set sights high BY DEAN LAWSON
W
hen a football team reaches a preliminary final, only to bow out of the premiership race as the third-best team in the competition, what is its goal for the following season?
To make the grand final of course and that’s exactly how EdenhopeApsley coach Chris Oliver sums up where he wants his team to finish in Horsham District league this season. The record shows the Saints, after producing a season that caught many by surprise, made it to the second-last game of the year and fell 24 points short of a grand final. Kalkee stood in the Saints’ way on that September 8 preliminary final at Quantong and the Kees fell short of matching ultimate premier HarrowBalmoral. “The goal is to obviously make finals and go deep… and in reality at least make the grand final,” Oliver said. “We don’t really want to go backwards. If you are not trying to be better than you were last season, then there is no point. “To get to a grand final and then winning it is about finding another gear on the day. “The key to winning big games is not to panic under the pressure. But
of course you have to get into the big games first. “We surprised ourselves in our ability last year and slowly built something that took real shape, only to let it slip. “We want to keep moving and with the recruits we have on board believe we can give it a good shake.” Oliver said he had been impressed with the pre-season preparation of his players, who were responding strongly to new faces at the club. “Preparations have been pretty good. We’ve had good numbers on the track I’m happy with how hard the boys are working at the moment,” he said. “We have a few recruits who have sparked a bit of excitement into the group and because we have added new blood it is creating demand for spots in the senior side.” The Saints have added versatile Loxton flanker Ryan Gray to their list and he joins former South Gambier forward Carl Slape who played alongside Oliver in a Western Border league premiership. “Ryan can play in key positions and Carl is a good size and should be a key target up forward,” Oliver said. Another forward, George Walker is returning from Ballarat and Oliver has been impressed with young play-
ers such as Joel Lowe from Noradjuha-Quantong and the likes of Kane Williams and Charlie Williams, graduating from under-17 ranks. “The young blokes are putting up their hand, which is good,” Oliver said. Offsetting newcomers are the departures of Sam McClure, staying in Ballarat, Dylan Achinson who has returned to Ballarat and perhaps Briley Gould, who has applied for a clearance to Taylors Lake. Oliver, who has Matthew Ryan and Jack Butler as his assistants, said he would promote a game style that proved profitable for the Saints last year. “We won’t try to change the style, which is quick-moving and flowing and being as little wasteful as possible with the football. We’ll maintain what’s been working,” he said. “But we might have a few positional changes this year and players might find themselves in different areas of the ground.” Edenhope-Apsley’s 2018 record shows 10 wins, six home-and-away losses and two finals victories. The Saints, who take on Pimpinio in the opening round, probably won’t know if they are on track to reach their goal until several games into the season.

Mixed bag as finals near A
BY DEAN LAWSON
mixture of predictability and intrigue surrounds Horsham A Grade cricket as teams enter the last weekend of home-and-away competition. On one end of the scale, Homers appear in the box seat to complete a premiership double, having secured a Cornell-Schwedes one-day title on Sunday night. At the other end of the table, third-placed finalists Jung Tigers appear in all sorts of trouble and are in danger of recording an inglorious end to the minor season against bottom-placed West Wimmera. Before the twilight one-day showdown at Horsham City Oval on Sunday night, Homers took on Rupanyup-Minyip in a regular two-day clash at Horsham Sunnyside. The Pigeons clipped 212 with Adam Atwood top-scoring with 77 and Jarred Combe making 34, as Mark Mbofana and Jordan Weidemann collected three wickets each. The Blue Panthers responded with 1-25 by stumps and will resume the chase on Saturday with Jamie Byrne and Braydon Ison at the wicket. When Homers pulled the whites on again on Sunday they ran through the Saints for 99 before responding with 5-100. Medium-pacer Craig Britten did much of the damage in the final, capturing 3-22,
but a variety of bowlers shared in the spoils. Chris Hopper and Eddie Landwehr were at the crease when the Pigeons passed the target. Saturday represents the last opportunity for finalists to build form before the season finale and the rest of the competition to have one last hurrah. West Wimmera appears on track to upset Jung Tigers’ applecart, a big Mitch Dahlenburg century steering the Warriors to 7-311 at Horsham City Oval. Opener and joint team leader Dahlenburg made 153 and shared a 214-run partnership with Adrian King, 91, as they made the most of good batting conditions. It was a long day in the field for the Tigers but a hat-trick to young left-armer Josh Leith gave the home side something to cheer about. Saturday represents a major test for the Tigers’ batting depth and perhaps the perfect opportunity for batsmen to find form under pressure. Horsham Saints’ disappointing effort with the bat on Sunday hardly reflected a strong effort with the willow a day earlier. The Saints took on Laharum and made 234, Jackson Davidson, 62, Tim Bell, 59, and Cory Smith, 56, leading the way. Brad Brotherton was the primary wicket-taker for Laharum with 4-51 and Josh OFF THE BACK FOOT: Horsham Saints opener Corey Smith Mahoney collected three. Laharum is 1-3 in reply but still well and unleashes with a powerful stroke while batting against Laharum. Picture: PAUL CARRACHER truly in the game.

Combine clinches back-to-back titles BY ONE SHORT
S
wifts-Great Western collected its 13th Grampians Cricket Association McDonald Shield, defeating Buangor-Tatyoon by 49 runs in a grand final at Stawell.
The Combine won the contest at Central Park during the long weekend in a match involving tough cricket – exactly what fans would expect from a final. The result represented back-to-back titles for the Combine, a remarkable feat given six members of last season’s premiership team were missing from this season’s team. Swifts-Great Western won the toss and, as usual, opted to bat first. After the early loss of captain and prolific run getter Sam Cocks for five and number three Tom Eckel for three, the Combine’s innings became a hard slog thanks to some tight bowling from Buangor-Tatyoon and recognition from the defending title-holders that they were in for a battle. At stumps on Saturday night the Combine was 7-137 with Matt Heffer, 13, and Matt Fitzgerald, 10, at the crease. Only opener Matt Delzotto, 20, and Rick Peters, 33, had made any significant contribution with the bat. Buangor-Tatyoon skipper and strike bowler Michael Harricks had three wickets at that stage. On Sunday rain delayed play until 3.30pm, when the Combine resumed its innings, reaching
158 when Heffer was dismissed, leaving Matt Fitzgerald to nurse the last two tailenders through the innings. In a defiant stand, Fitzgerald added 11 runs with Lachlan Patching and a valuable 28 runs with number 11 Jayden McCartney and finished unbeaten on 53. Harricks took his figures to 5-67 from 39 overs, which included 15 maidens. Other wicket takers were Lachy Oddie and Jack Fraser with two each. This left the Combine with a defendable 195 runs and Buangor-Tatyoon’s innings started with a little over an hour to bat for the rest of the day. But in that time, Buangor-Tatyoon lost 4-41 all to swing bowler Patching and included in that haul was the key wicket of opener Jacob Bates. On Monday, Buangor-Tatyoon steadily advanced to 73 before batsman Shaun Allan lost his wicket. More tumbled and when Liam Baker was out for 36 with the score on 116 the game slipped away from the Ararat district team. A 21-run 10th wicket partnership between James Phillips, unbeaten on 16, and Henry Armstrong, seven, showed glimpses of a promising future for the new club, which managed 146. Patching failed to add to his four wickets but finished the best of the Combine bowlers with 4-62. The Steve Smith memorial medal went to the Combine’s Matt Fitzgerald for his unbeaten 53 while batting at number nine.

Win-win for junior Homers Homers junior cricketers had plenty to celebrate on Monday after winning both of Horsham Cricket Association’s junior grand finals. For the first time, both the under-16.5 and under-14 grand finals were played on Horsham City Oval’s turf wicket. The under-14 grand final between Homers Red and Dunmunkle Red started at 10am, with Homers winning the toss and sending the opposition in to bat. Dunmunkle Red openers Blake Downer and Caleb Hurley each faced their allotted 20 balls before retiring, but the Homers Red bowlers did well to restrict them to 10 and eight runs respectively.
The Dunmunkle Red middle order struggled to make an impact, with Keylan Ryan bowled for a duck by Jackson Gabbe and Riley Downer out for one. Jess Fischer’s late innings knock of 19 gave Dunmunkle Red’s bowlers a reasonable total of 4-72 to defend. Homers Red opener Jett Hopper wasted no time getting his side off to a flying start, blasting 34 from his 20 balls faced before retiring. Despite ducks to John Officer and Luca Geue, Homers Red was always on target for victory and finished 9-82 from 19 overs to seal the premiership. In the under-16.5 grand final
Dunmunkle Renegades elected to bat after winning the toss but were setback by the early loss of opener Bailey Young for two. Logan Petering, 22 and Deacan Campbell, 19 not out, were the best of the Renegades’ batsmen as the team posted a total of 4-66. Jett Hopper backed up his heroics from the under-14 grand final with a knock of 29 including six fours to again put Homers in an excellent position. Paddy Mills, 18, and Mackenzie Marra, 11, finished unbeaten and helped their side finish 3-71 from 16 overs to claim the second premiership of the day for the Pigeons.

Championship sets cup foundation T
BY TONY LOGAN
he latest harness-racing action at Horsham Racing Centre featured the 29th edition of the Noel Smith Memorial Invitation Drivers Championship. Horsham Harness Racing Club president Justin Lane said the event was successful ‘on all fronts’ and had set the perfect platform for further action at the end of this month. “It was a really successful day, giving us a great kick-start to building momentum over the next 20 days to our flagship event, The Weekly Advertiser Horsham Pacing Cup on Sunday, March 31,” he said. “We saw Western Australian star
Gary Hall Jr take out the championship and our Team Teal Victoria Ladies Day Out was something we are very keen to grow. “The girls had a terrific afternoon up in the track view room, raising money for the Women’s Cancer Foundation and hearing from a guest speaker, Australia New Zealand Gynaecological Oncology Group chief executive, Team Teal ambassador and the region’s own, Kerryn Manning. “Out on the track it was the powerful Emma Stewart stable scoring a double, with Kerryn driving two, one of which she trains, and leading reinsmen such as Hall, Alford, Lee and Bellman all to the fore.
“On cup day the very best horses will be added into the mix, together with plenty of activities for racegoers of every age.” For the first time on cup day, the club will open the gates with free admission, but is encouraging gold coin donations in support of The Naked Farmer and his fundraising efforts for the Royal Flying Doctor Service mental-health unit. The popular Ownerforaday competition will also return on cup day, with 10 lucky racegoers drawing a starter in a selected race, enjoying the experience and privileges of racing ‘their’ horse and with the chance to pocket $4000 cash if their runner comes home a winner.

BIG SEASON: Coughlin Park’s successful premiership team.
Teams ready for Irish tournament Bowlers from across Victoria and interstate are in Horsham this week for Coughlin Park Bowling Club’s 14th annual Irish Triples Tournament. The two-day tournament, starting today and with prizemoney up for grabs, has attracted 28 teams. The tournament was the brainchild of Aldo Leyonhjelm and the late Brian O’Loughlin and in its 13 years the club has given away $36,000 to successful teams. Mr Leyonhjelm said the tournament fitted in neatly as a lead up to Horsham Irish Festival at near-
by Maydale Reserve on Saturday and St Patrick’s Day on Sunday. “We also thank businesses for their generosity and donations. We are extremely grateful,” he said. Coughlin Park is coming off a successful Bowls Wimmera Division season, having clinched a division-one title against Dimboola. Coughlin Park won 100-70. Results: John Flynn, Allan Thompson, Craig Decker, Peter Beasley, s, Coughlin Park d Mervyn Roberts, David Ross, Darryl Both, Robert Pyers, s, 332; Kevin Cramer, Geoffrey Bald,

Horsham jockey Christine Puls won the prestigious Victorian Wakeful Club Lady of Racing award at Flemington Racecourse on Friday. Puls is the 24th winner of the award, which is run by The Victorian Wakeful Club in partnership with Racing Victoria and celebrates women who have made an outstanding contribution to thoroughbred racing. Puls knew she wanted to be a jockey from the age of four, when she would ride sheep around the family farm. She regularly competes on the metropolitan and country circuits, as well as providing ongoing guidance and support to younger hoops coming through the ranks. Her biggest claim to fame was winning the Group 3 Hobart Cup over 2400m in 2005 on Our Dashing Dane. Puls claimed the award at a star-studded ceremony attended by her fellow finalists, leading trainer Natalie Young, retired jockey Clare Lindop, and Claudette Luke, financial Mmanager of the Magic Millions Sales. Australian Jockeys Association chairman Des O’Keeffe said Puls was a wonderful mentor to female riders coming through the ranks. “Christine has been a career jockey, she’s had great longevity with it and she’s hard-working, dedicated and never complains,” he said. “She’s a really strong mentor to the female riders and I think she’s had a career she can be incredibly proud of. “She has been a support to so many
Christine Puls fellow riders, apprentices and females in the industry, and that gives her enormous credit.” Fellow jockey Chelsea Hall said Puls always took time out from her race day commitments to help the apprentices. “Christine always takes time to walk the track, go through our race rides and help with our riding,” Hall said. “She really goes out of her way to help the apprentices. If someone’s down about their ride she’s always the first one to bring you back up, she’ll pull you aside so you don’t feel embarrassed.” Country Racing Victoria chief executive Scott Whiteman said he believes Puls is one of the unsung heroes in racing. “Christine is one of those special people out there who is always looking after others, not just her own needs and requirements,” he said. “She’s always concerned about her fellow riders, particularly the younger riders.”

Big weekend of bowling BY COLIN MacGILLIVRAY
H
orsham received a stamp of approval from the state’s tenpin bowling community after successfully hosting the Victorian Country Cup for the first time at the weekend.
Horsham Lanes and Games manager Melissa McKenzie said more than 100 competitors from bowling centres across the state were impressed by the organisation of the tournament. It was the biggest bowling tournament ever hosted in Horsham. “It worked out amazingly – we got a lot of compliments on how well it went,” Ms McKenzie said. “This is the first time we’ve ever hosted the Country Cup. “As a tournament it has been going on for 39 years, but this is only the fourth year we’ve been involved. “There are only 10 country centres involved in it, and basically someone needs to drop out for you to go in.” Horsham nearly took out the men’s division, losing to Warrnambool by just two points in the overall standings. The teams were tied on points going into the final round of competition, but Warrnambool’s bowlers had more head-to-head wins in their
match against Shepparton than Horsham did against Latrobe Valley, relegating the home side to second place. Ms McKenzie, who managed the men’s team, said it had been a terrific effort. “The highest individual game for the tournament was Stephen Carman with 287 and he had the highest total pinfall as well,” she said. “The men bowled really well and were very close to winning.” Carman was selected in the men’s all-star team at the conclusion of the tournament with the highest individual average of 212. Ms McKenzie was also a member of the Horsham women’s team that finished eighth. She said despite the team’s final standing, it had been extremely competitive. “We had quite a few games where our ladies bowled in the 190s and lost their point by just a few pins,” she said. “It was just a spare here or there that wasn’t picked up in a few games that were quite close. “I personally had a few of those games where you lose by only a couple of pins and it is frustrating. “Our team was probably one of the strongest ladies teams we’ve had.” Included in the Horsham women’s

team was 16-year-old Sophie Martin, who will compete at the World Bowling Junior Championships in Paris next week. Martin had the highest average of Horsham’s women during the Country Cup with 183. Ms McKenzie said the main reason for the cup’s success was the hard work of its volunteers. “This is definitely the biggest tour-
nament we’ve hosted,” she said. “There are 18 games in each division – that’s a lot of games. “We were here each day from 6.30 or 7am and the earliest we got out was 1am. “On Saturday I got here at 6.30am and didn’t leave until 1.30am. “We only had a few staff available for that weekend and we put in big hours to make it happen.”

Horsham tenpin bowling sensation Sophie Martin’s plans to travel to Paris for this month’s World Bowling Junior Championships received a major boost from generous Wimmera people and businesses. Martin, 16, was picked as part of a four-person Australian squad to compete at the championships earlier this year. It will be the first time she has represented Australia after previously having suited up for Victoria in several competitions. Martin has been part of the 12-person Australian training squad for more than two years. To help fund her trip to Paris, Martin has been reaching out to Wimmera companies for sponsorship. Last week service group Downer Utilities organised a fundraising barbecue at the under-construction Murra Warra Wind Farm to support Martin. Contractors including Downer Roads, MEH Earthmoving, Civilex, CHS, Multiworks and RJE helped raise $1467, while Downer Utilities presented Martin with a further $2000. Downer Utilities’ Craig Paterson presented a cheque, along with a Downer bag, jacket, polo shirt, cap, beanie and water bottle to Martin. Martin spoke to Downer workers and thanked them for their support and donations. The World Bowling Junior Championships will be from March 17 to 24.

Track record secures cup win T
wo-year-old greyhound Orson Allen set a new track record to win the $67,000 Group 2 Horsham Cup.
The Cranbourne Cup winner, also runner-up in a Group 1 Temlee, overpowered front-running Nervous An Weird at Horsham Showground to win the 485-metre event in 26.7 seconds. The previous record, set by Got Some Wheels last November, was 26.876 seconds. Handler Joe Briffa told Greyhound Racing Victoria that punters are yet to see the best of Orson Allen, who is two months shy of his third birthday. “He just keeps on improving and he’s starting to work out how to come from behind. He’s a real flying machine. He’s one of the best dogs in Australia at the moment,” he said. Andrew Paraskevas’ Nervous
An Weird was dynamic early from box one, clocking a sensational 6.39 seconds in the first section as Orson Allen settled in second position. Orson Allen was checked in a dash for the rail, pushing him two lengths off the pace turning for home, but powered home to win by 2.5 lengths. “He got in front of Barooga Brett at the start,” Briffa said. “Nervous An Weird jumped brilliantly and I thought Orson Allen might be in a little bit of trouble, but he worked home really well. “To break the record is unbelievable. He’s just flying.” Bred and owned by the Wheeler family in NSW and trained by Correy Grenfell at Avalon, Orson Allen – KC And All and Desalle Bale – now has 23 wins from 47 starts. The $47,000 first prize in Horsham took his career earnings to $313,645.
“Samantha and Correy Grenfell have done a great job with this dog, and now the Perth Cup is looking really good for him,” Briffa said. Horsham Greyhound Racing Club used the occasion to present a $4700 cheque to Alister Mitchell’s mental-health organisation ‘Livin’. The club has donated $100 to the organisation for every Horsham district trainer to record a win at the Horsham track. The other feature race winners on Horsham Cup night were: Trouper, Karen Leek – Jan Wilson Memorial 485m in 27.26 sec; Major Riot – Anthony Azzopardi, Horsham Cup Consolation 485m in 27.10; Henessey Venom – Kerry Houlahan, Sylvia Penny Memorial, 410m in 23.24; Fierce An’ Fancy – Jess Grima, GRV Vic Bred Maiden Final, 410m in 23.52.

Shados Inala has hit the ground running in Volleyball Horsham’s A Grade competition with three wins from three starts. The combination of veteran spiker Tim Popple and high-leaping Jack Hannan has proven to be the difference early in the season, with the experienced duo combining well with first-season setter Hannah Whyte. Below them on the ladder are the Volleyroos, Nuggets and Phantoms, who have all recorded a win each while Heidelberg is struggling at this early stage of the season, yet to record a win. In B Grade, Murtoa is the surprise packet recording two wins, with Damian Tanner and Jarrod Khan in good early season form and well supported by Bailey Logan and Beau Pendlebury. The Dunmunkle crew is chasing last season’s grand finalists Von Steiger Bloods who have also hit the ground running due to having a settled six and benefitting with the return of Adam Harrison. In C Grade, the Pringles boys have been playing good volleyball in their two early wins, while the old favorite Murtoa Railway is also two from two. But Horsham College teams – HC Kelsos and HC Rage – have improved immensely, introduced some talented newcomers to their teams and will prove to be hard to beat as the season progresses.

Murtoa Mavericks, who have stepped up from juniors, are another team on the improve. A women’s competition has proven to be a hit, with all six teams showing good form and enjoying their volleyball. Three teams – Raptors, HC Thunder and HC Attackers – have all recorded two wins to head the table. The girls are displaying great skill and enjoying good rallies when they play in a competitive but friendly environment. The juniors are enjoying their time on the court with some determined play and good skills on display. Murtoa Geckos are well led by Grace Turner and Archie Gawith and have shown the benefit of playing together in their two wins so far to head the table. The Saints girls likewise have Rhylee Hateley and Lotus Martin playing good volleyball. There has been plenty of interest in this competition so far, with youngsters filtering into teams as the weeks have progressed, which is good for the competition. There is still room in some teams for people keen to play. Anyone interested should email info@volleyballhorsham.com.au. – David Berry
