All go for play park A

BY DEAN LAWSON

$2.453-million project in an overall plan to develop Horsham riverfront attractions and assets is set to get underway after winning final municipal approval.

Horsham Rural City Council has awarded a tender for the design and construction of Horsham Nature Play Park on the north side of the river in a ‘Wotonga’ area near rowing sheds, boat ramp, botanic gardens and caravan park. The council awarded the tender for the park and also a tender for a $480,000 project to construct three interactive riverfront decks, at a meeting on Monday night. Both projects sit under the first stage of the council’s City to River project

designed to transform and revitalise Horsham’s river precinct and central business district. The council awarded the play park job to civil construction company AWS Services VIC and the decksnodes project to Point Lonsdale firm Bridgewater Marine. Horsham mayor Robyn Gulline said she expected contractors to complete construction of the nature-themed play park by October next year. “We won’t see action on the ground immediately because there will be work on concept and architectural designs involving drainage and so on, but my hope is that it would be finished by this time next year,” she said. “Everything is fully funded by the state and federal governments and ongoing maintenance is negligible.

“Everyone at the meeting spoke in positive terms about this project. It’s been designed around the natural environment – a predominant request from residents who responded to a community engagement process. It will all be about encouraging children to be involved in creative and imaginative play. “It is just so exciting to see more activity occurring along the river.” Cr Gulline said unlike the play park, on-ground work on the river nodes could start immediately. “They are good to go and should be finished by March,” she said. One of the in-water and-or onground water-edge nodes will be a wharf-style design aligned with Firebrace Street and an ‘entrance pergola’. A second wharf-style node will be

at the western end of the precinct, aligning with the nature play park, and a third eastern-most deck will be on the riverbank only without footings in water. Cr Di Bell, in moving at Monday night’s meeting to accept the tender, said she looked forward to the nature play park coming to fruition. “It’s been a long while in planning and having been on the community reference group a lot of people are looking forward to it,” she said. Cr Claudia Haenel immediately backed the move, adding that Horsham’s climate provided opportunities for outdoor activities. “Providing splashing water for children in a safe environment will be fantastic for our community,” she said. Cr David Bowe also echoed the

sentiments with, “It’s fantastic to see this fully funded project going ahead for play for all ages and all abilities.” Cr Penny Flynn: “We’ve demonstrated we have an affordable new piece of community infrastructure. It’s a concept design and we have scope to make more enhancements. Because things have come in under budget, we’ve talked about how we will be able to add some mature trees to provide more shade in a shorter period.” Cr Ian Ross said the project offered great value to the municipality. Cr Gulline said she expected sealing work on a riverbank pathway upgrade to be finished this month. She also stressed the play park was a different project to council plans to enhance outdoor features at Horsham Aquatic Centre.

Wine and cycle trail a step closer BY SARAH MATTHEWS

reat Western community leaders have welcomed federal and local government funding that will enable major work on a tourism project designed to boost economic growth in the wine village.

Great Western Future Committee secretary Anthony Kumnick said members were ‘ecstatic’ to learn Great Western Wine and Heritage Cycle Trail would receive $212,500 from the Federal Government’s Building Better Regions Fund. “Northern Grampians Shire Council submitted the application on our behalf and are matching the funding in their budget, so we have more than $400,000 to complete the next phase of the trail,” he said. The cycle trail and $331,000 for accessible family change rooms at Horsham Aquatic Centre were among key projects funded in a $6.9-million slice for the Mallee electorate. Mr Kumnick said funding opportunities such as the Building Better Re-

gions Fund were vital for developing community assets, including ones that catered to residents and tourists alike. “The cycling trail has been identified in our 2014-24 plan as something we would like to have in the community and we’ve been trying to get it up and running and pushing for it for about four years now,” he said. “Great Western has a great wine base – we have some outstanding wines and some of the oldest vines in the world.” The trail creates an opportunity for users to explore and learn more about the historic wine region and connects cellar doors at major wineries. “At present the trail uses existing infrastructure, but the latest funding will enable us to create a path from Best’s, through the township of Great Western to Seppelt,” Mr Kumnick said. “People will be able to walk or cycle the path between the two.” He said project leaders would look at how to link Grampians Estate to the path at a later date, depending on the final route of a planned Western Highway bypass of the town.

“At the moment it’s a bit hard because it’s all up in the air,” he said. Mr Kumnick said the Federal Government also funded an earlier phase of the project, resulting in signs at the town’s three major wineries and in memorial park. “The council, which is a joint partner, has also previously given funding for 18 interpretive signs at historically significant points around Great Western,” he said. “The next phase is building infrastructure, which the council will complete, hopefully by the middle of next year. “We’d like to say a big thank-you to the community and Northern Grampians Shire for getting behind the project and the Federal Government for providing the money – it’s great to see them investing in small communities.” Horsham Rural City mayor Robyn Gulline also thanked the government for its investment in her municipality, which will result in building extensions to the indoor pool hall on the Hamilton Street side of the aquat-

ic centre. The upgrade will involve two family rooms and two accessible change rooms, to enable people with disabilities to access both indoor and outdoor pools. There will also be an undercover outdoor function space. “In conjunction with the $384,000 we have allocated in the budget for 2021-2022, the $331,000 Federal Government allocation gives us the funding we need to see the project come to fruition,” Cr Gulline said. Horsham Aquatic Centre was constructed in 2007 and Cr Gulline said the new change rooms would modernise the building to better meet the community’s needs. “Contemporary leisure facilities now offer more than just a place to swim, they are a destination, a place to gather and socialise,” she said. Cr Gulline said the project would go to tender before the end of this year and was scheduled to be completed in the second half of 2022. Member for Mallee Anne Webster said under round five of the fund, the government had committed almost $300-million to support 295 proj-

Gardeners come together for good cause Robyn and Fred Simpson have spent two decades turning a vacant block into a magnificent garden, which they plan to showcase to the public later this month. The Simpsons will open their Haven property for a good cause, to raise money for Wimmera Hospice Care Auxiliary. Auxiliary members have organised seven gardens to feature in the event on October 31. Mrs Simpson said she was originally hesitant to become involved, but quickly changed her mind about the fundraiser. “Someone came along one day and asked if we would be in it and I said I didn’t know, I wasn’t sure,” she said. “When all the roses are out it looks quite different, but there aren’t many roses out at the moment.” Mr Simpson said the event was for a worthwhile cause, with money raised going towards buying and leasing equipment for use by palliative care patients. “That’s the main thing,” he said. “I think it’s a fantastic cause and I hope we have a good day for it.” Mr Simpson said open garden days were popular at this time of year. “We went up the mountains to Wartook last weekend and they had a

Picture: PAUL CARRACHER big crowd up there,” he said. “It was great.” Mrs Simpson said the couple’s garden, on Grahams Bridge Road, grew from humble beginnings. “We started out here 20 years ago, on a bare block,” she said. “Then an uncle who lived in Hamilton gave me some roses out of his

garden. I planted them out the front and realised it wasn’t the right spot, so they got shifted. “Ever since then, we just keep building a new garden here and a new garden there. We’re not good gardeners, but whatever we put in seems to grow here.” Gardens of Haven will run under

COVID-safe conditions from 1pm to 5pm. Entry costs $15, which includes afternoon tea at Haven Hall. There will also be a plant stall and raffle at the hall. People can call Nola Bellinger on 0407 810 544 for tickets, which are also available at the hall on the day. – Sarah Matthews

In the northern part of the electorate, Mallee Family Care received $4.9-million for a Building Better Care for Mallee Communities project and Mildura Rural City Council will use $1.15-million towards a ‘Mallee – Back on Track’ project. Dr Webster said the latest funding round took the government’s support through the Building Better Regions Fund to $1.38-billion, including $37.3-million for 33 Mallee projects.

ARARAT

Ararat will step into the regional shopping spotlight on Friday, with this year’s We Love Ararat campaign designed to provide an economic spark to activity.

Education is key... L

BY SARAH MATTHEWS

eaders investigating a new model of maternity care for the Wimmera-southern Mallee have highlighted a need for bereavement training along with enhanced education to prevent pregnancy loss and stillbirth.

Wimmera Health Care Group nurse-midwife unit manager Michelle Coutts – who is heading up a project to design and implement the new model as part of a complete overhaul of maternity services in Horsham – said midwives provided support, care, advice and education to pregnant women across the continuum of pregnancy, labour, birth and the postnatal period. She said while loss and death were not usually associated with midwifery, throughout their careers many midwives would care for women and their families who experienced a miscarriage or gave birth to a baby who died, or was not expected to survive once born. Mrs Coutts made the comments in light of October being International Pregnancy and Infant Loss Awareness Month. Each year, about 110,000 Australians experience a miscarriage, 2200 endure stillbirth, 600 lose their baby in the first 28 days after birth and many more face the grief of termination for medical reasons. Mrs Coutts said historically, midwives were not trained to provide bereavement care. “It’s often something that some of us learn from experience within the area and from mentors,” she said.

“It’s really important that we change that because the ramifications of providing inadequate care and support at this heartbreaking time can contribute to mental-health problems for the parents, and also for other family and friends involved.” Mrs Coutts said project leaders were already discussing revised education and training for midwives as part of a redeveloped model of maternity care at Wimmera Base Hospital. She said she considered having an ‘excellent understanding of the grieving process’ a vital component of midwifery. “It acknowledges that people experience and display grief in different ways and helps tailor care that meets individual needs,” she said. “Grief and loss can happen at any time during pregnancy or at the time of birth. “It’s really important that the parents feel they are supported to make decisions that reflect their own wishes, morals and beliefs and be fully informed about them. “Parental grief is something that can only be fully understood by the parents experiencing it.” Mrs Coutts said through bereavement care, midwives had an opportunity to help parents find meaning in their loss. “When a baby dies, midwives now offer to help create ‘memories’ and mementoes for the family, and doing this is a skill in itself,” she said. “This might involve taking photos, hand and foot prints, taking a lock of hair and helping the parents dress or bath their baby. “It can also involve offering them

“When a baby dies, midwives now offer to help create ‘memories’ and mementoes for the family, and doing this is a skill in itself” – Michelle Coutts

clothes and blankets that they would like to keep or use for if and when their baby is buried.” Mrs Coutts said providing parents with bereavement care required a collaborative approach, with obstetricians, gynaecologists and other professionals such as social workers working closely with midwives to provide the best possible care. She said along with bereavement training, the health-care group’s midwives would also benefit from advanced education projects such as the ‘Safer Baby Collaborative’, designed to pinpoint the best ways to help prevent pregnancy loss and stillbirth.

Reducing stillbirth

Safer Care Victoria and Victorian Agency for Health Information worked on the project with participating Victorian health services – including East Grampians Health Service in Ararat – to reduce stillbirth rates during the third trimester. The project focused on five areas of practice: Improving rates of smoking cessation in pregnancy; diagnosis and management of fetal growth restriction; increasing public awareness of the importance of fetal movements; raising awareness of safe maternal sleep positions; and promoting appropriate timing of birth and mitigating unintended consequences or harm.

POIGNANT TRIBUTE: On Friday at 7pm throughout the world, people will light candles to form a ‘wave of light’ for International Pregnancy and Infant Loss Remembrance Day. Picture: SANDS AUSTRALIA Mrs Coutts said the project summary showed many stillbirths might be avoidable, and as a result many new resources and training programs would be developed for doctors and midwives. She said the project, which concluded in May this year, would also form the backbone of any new education around loss and stillbirth at Wimmera Health Care Group. “It is also important to keep in mind that while we know so much and there have been so many advances in research and technology and improvements in clinical care over the past few decades related to perinatal

loss and stillbirth, there will always be deaths where we will never know the reason as to why a baby died,” she said. “I think we are getting better as individuals and a society in recognising that a parent is still a parent regardless of whether their baby has lived or died. “It’s important we continue to talk about pregnancy and infant loss to ensure parents are not suffering in silence.” People can visit www.bettersafer care.vic.gov.au/improvement/projects /mbc/safer-baby for more information about the Safer Baby Collaborative.

Amy: Please don’t suffer in silence BY SARAH MATTHEWS

hen Murtoa’s Amy Friedlieb shared her story of early pregnancy loss on social media last year, she was both overwhelmed by support and heartbroken to discover so many women were suffering alone.

Her own sense of isolation and loneliness – despite being surrounded by people as normal – provided motivation to speak up and encourage others to do the same. In Australia, up to one in four pregnancies ends in miscarriage each year, affecting about 110,000 women. Statistics show about 2200 more endure the pain of stillbirth, 600 lose their baby in the first 28 days after birth and many more face the grief of termination for medical reasons. For many, the trauma remains silent. As a nurse and mother Amy knew the ‘one in four’ statistic. But knowing the statistic does not prepare you to become one. “I hadn’t really had a conversation with a friend or relative about miscarriage so I had so little understanding about what it really was,” she said. “I’m a pretty open person and I wanted to make people feel they were not alone. I also wanted to teach people, so they are more prepared than I was if they were to speak with someone going through a similar situation or they were in that situation themselves.” Amy said friends were quick to respond to her story. “I had so many women private message me thanking me for speaking about infant loss and sharing their stories with me,” she said. “It definitely made me feel less alone. “It was so nice to start a conversation and hear their stories but also heartbreaking that so many go through the loss and keep it to themselves.” After welcoming their daughter Pippa in November 2018, Amy and Matt were excited to expand their family. Their joy in becoming pregnant quickly turned into concern after Amy

started bleeding at six or seven weeks’ gestation. “I had already started getting a lot of pregnancy symptoms, so when I started bleeding and had pain that only strong pain relief in the hospital’s emergency department could fix, I knew something was wrong,” she said. “Matt and I were both upset but we didn’t officially know we had lost our baby until we got the blood test results days later, which showed my HCG level had dropped. It was too early to see anything on an ultrasound.” Amy said miscarriage not only created emotional upheaval for everyone involved, it also took a physical toll on a woman’s body. “I felt physical side effects for weeks after,” she said. “It can take months for your cycle to come back and to stop bleeding and feeling like you are pregnant. “That’s another thing I didn’t know and find super unfair. I thought you lost the baby and that’s about as far as I was educated about.”

‘Super lucky’

Despite their loss, Amy and Matt considered themselves ‘super lucky’ to conceive again a couple of months later. “We were told it could take some time to conceive again so we started loosely trying,” Amy said. “It was great to fall pregnant again, but because it happened so quickly, I didn’t get to process my miscarriage as much as I would have liked. “I grieved a lot for my loss during the first half of my pregnancy. I also wish I had waited longer to get my body back to normal before trying again, but in saying this, I am so thankful it didn’t take long because it can take a long time for some women to get everything back in sync after a miscarriage.” Amy and Matt welcomed Sadie, their rainbow baby – a term for a healthy baby born after a loss – last month. “I am beyond lucky,” Amy said. “The pregnancy was horrible – I was

Picture: GABRIELLE POWELL PHOTOGRAPHY sick the whole way through which affected my mental health significantly. “This was another subject I found hard to talk about, because again people used the ‘lucky you are pregnant, some people wish to be in your shoes’ card. “Saying that you don’t enjoy pregnancy does not mean you do not want the baby – I adore being a mum and love my babies, but pregnancy was not a good time for Matt and I.” Amy said when it came to deal-

ing with everything from the loss of a child to difficult pregnancies and births, words mattered. “I think women are speaking more openly about their birth stories and pregnancies but not so much about losses,” she said. “I don’t know if it’s because of this whole ‘people have it worse off than me’ attitude or that they feel ashamed and that they feel they did something wrong for this to happen. “I also think people don’t know

what to say back and the women experiencing loss know they might get a response that hurts them.” Amy said she was no exception, with some people responding to her miscarriage story with, ‘you’re lucky you have a daughter already’ and ‘at least it happened early on’. “This makes you feel like you are being overly sensitive, which is not helpful,” she said. “At the end of the day it’s still a baby and it’s something you have desperately wanted. “These days you know from day one what the birth date will be, so it’s all so real from the day of your first missed period.” Amy said if she could give advice to couples experiencing the loss of a child, it would be to talk about it, either to each other or a professional. “The worst thing you can do is just pretend it didn’t happen or that you will get over it,” she said. “Acknowledging it is the best way to work through your grief. “That’s what motivated me to speak up about my own experience and I hope anyone going through a similar situation feels they can talk to me. I would love to support them and let them know they are not alone.” On Friday at 7pm, the Friedliebs will light a candle as part of a ‘wave of light’ for International Pregnancy and Infant Loss Awareness Day. “It is super important to stop for a moment and think about the baby who could have been, but will always have a piece of your heart,” Amy said. • People can visit sands.org.au or rednose.org.au for more information about pregnancy and infant loss. Sands – which offers miscarriage, stillbirth and newborn death support – will also host a virtual ‘walk to remember’ on Sunday. Red Nose provides 24-hour support and services to thousands of Australian women every year who lose a baby to miscarriage, via termination for medical reasons, in early infancy or to Sudden Infant Death Syndrome.

IN THE RUNNING: ACE Radio team members, from left, Danica Turvey, Adam Roche, Emma Clark and Michelle Reid, have been nominated for ACRA radio industry awards. Picture: PAUL CARRACHER

National nominations

Wimmera 3WM and MIXX FM radio team members are again among nominees for national industry awards. The station operates as part of ACE Radio Broadcasters, which has with its workforce, a long history of attracting accolades. Horsham station content director Adam Roche, radio news presenter Emma Clark, advertising traffic manager Danica Turvey and account manager Michelle Reid are all in the running for Commercial Radio Australia’s Australian Commercial Radio Awards, ACRAs. Mr Roche, who as well as pro-

viding content leadership plays a major role in presenting a voice for the Wimmera radio-listening public, has a nomination in a best newcomer on air category. Mrs Clark, the stations’ radio journalist and on-air presenter is a nominee for best news reader and presenter. It is her sixth nomination for the awards. Miss Turvey, who works in administration, controlling commercial traffic and scheduling, and Mrs Reid, an account manager for radio and The Weekly Advertiser newspaper, are among nominations for a best newcomer off-air category.

Radio programs Country Today with Libby Price, The Morning Rush with Sean Cullen and Kate Meade and The Morning Crew with Gabi James and Dan Robinson are also nominations in a best networked program category. The ACE Network, which has a heavy radio-station broadcast footprint with stations across regional Victoria and NSW and now with 3MP in Melbourne, has 23 award nominations. ACE Radio Broadcasters Horsham general manager Brendan O’Loughlin said having Wimmera staff among nominations

BEYOND

for national awards was a credit to the individuals and their teams. “It’s just reward for people who go above and beyond to produce high-quality products and services and also how well we measure up across national benchmarks,” he said. The ACRAs usually occur annually, but based on COVID-19 circumstances, this year’s awards recognise two years of work. Industry officials will announce winners at celebrations scheduled for Sydney on February 13 next year.

Community Inclusion

Police have confirmed that a second woman has died following a three-vehicle collision in Horsham last week. The collision occurred on Stawell Road, near the intersection of Williams Road, about 2.40pm on Friday. The incident involved a cement truck, a white Hyundai sport utility vehicle and a red Holden utility, all travelling in a northerly direction. Police revealed that a 79-year-old Horsham woman travelling in the Hyundai died at the scene and a 78-year-old woman, also from Horsham, died in hospital in Melbourne on Monday. They said two other female occupants, 80, from Nhill and 56, Horsham, went to hospital with serious injuries. The sole occupant of the Holden utility, a Horsham woman, 64, also went to hospital with serious injuries. Police have interviewed the sole occupant of the truck, a 52-year-old Horsham man, and released him pending further inquiries. Investigators are appealing for anyone who witnessed the collision or has dash cam footage to come forward. Anyone with information that could assist police is urged to call Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000 or submit a report online at www.crimestoppersvic.com.au.

19:14 ‘in a bag’ Organisers of Horsham’s Operation 19:14 Free Family Fun Day are presenting this year’s event ‘in a bag’. Following cancellation of the 2020 Operation 19:14 Free Family Fun Day and the disruption of constant restriction changes throughout 2021, bags for primary-school-aged children will be available at a drive-through at Horsham’s Harvest Church. A café-style, COVID-safe format will operate from 1pm to 4pm on Sunday. Sponsored by Christian Emergency Food Centre, Craft for a Cause and Horsham district Christian churches, Operation 19:14 is based on a quote from the Bible’s book of Matthew, chapter 19, verse 14; ‘But Jesus said, Let the little children come to me. Don’t stop them because God’s kingdom belongs to people who are like these children’. Operation 19:14 is about sharing the Christian faith and message of hope with children and their families.

Cherishing our seniors... always

ith so much technology around us we have never had more access to data and information.

With access to a virtual worldwide encyclopaedia we can quickly research just about every conceivable subject or issue when sitting down to a computer hooked up to the internet. We only have to consider expressions such as ‘Google it’, now part of contemporary vernacular in reference to fingertip investigation, to realise just how ‘in touch’ we are – be it about what has happened, what is happening and what might happen. And of course, mixed in with all sorts of furphys as well. But just imagine if this electronic overload was our only source of the information we needed to exist as empathetic and well-informed humans. We might as well be electronic machines ourselves. The reality is that we are rationalising creatures and the type of information we store in our own incredible biological databanks, based on ‘human’ as well as academic assessment, is critical for everything to work and move forward.

EDITORIAL By Dean Lawson

All the academic and scientific breakthroughs and developments, ultimately, are simply attachments to this nuance-based human-style learning. We shouldn’t need reminding that we don’t need to plug in some of the best sources of information we often automatically have on hand – they are with us in everyday life and exist in the form of mums, dads, grandads, grandmas, uncles, elderly neighbours and friends and so on. Some of these ‘computers’, albeit like most things that occasionally get a little rusty, can often tell us more about life than any machine. They are wonderful assets. Victorian Seniors Festival week, despite being subject to all sorts of modifications due to the pandemic, provides a reminder about this large and often untapped life-experience ‘filing cabinet’.

There is an old expression that ‘you can’t learn everything from books’. A modern application might be that you also can’t learn everything from computers. Human experience and understanding remains one of the greatest of teachers across generations. Our very existence is the result, at some stage, of one generation handing down information to the next. We know and understand that geniuses from any era are far and few between and modern understanding and rationalisation has superseded plenty of old ideas and beliefs. But anyone who has had a lifetime of experience, regardless of how old-fashioned or out of touch they might seem, can usually offer something to new generations to at least consider. It is important to remember that some of the most enduring cultures the world has seen have based their society structures on cherishing their elders. So, let’s ensure we always take time to celebrate and respect our elderly and senior members of society. They are simply reflections of who we are today.

LETTER TO THE EDITOR Sir, – I am smiling as I put pen to paper to write this ‘letter’ as I feel a quiet confidence that it will be read – because that’s what us seniors do, and have done, most of our lives. We read, probably with a cuppa or coffee at hand, and inwardly digest. Last week was Seniors Week. Six to seven days when we ‘silver foxes’ are given a small window of recognition and an opportunity to ‘strut our stuff’, reminisce and share with our succeeding generations our wealth of knowledge, value, expertise and memories. Unfortunately, like many other events over the past periods, Seniors Week celebrations became another victim of the COVID crisis and were cancelled. Now we have to hang in for another 12 months for our official acknowledgment. In the meantime folks, may I suggest that we all dig deep into our past endeavours and achievements, sometimes shaped at the ‘school of hard knocks’ and stand tall in the knowledge that we have something special in our hearts and minds – the fact that we have lived through perhaps the most interesting period in world history. From steam to space travel, outside toilets to bidets, billy carts to E-bikes, pen to paper to electronic technology, which some have embraced with amazing alacrity and skill. In fact, we have probably forgotten more than the average 30-year-old knows. We have ‘given back’ to society and most likely in some form are still volunteering our precious commodity – time! Would it be asking too much if society were to look upon a senior as a well-worn book, which has become so because it is full of wonderful content? Remember, treasures are not necessarily held inside a vault or museum. Kola A Kennedy, Horsham

ow quickly the percentage of people fully vaccinated against COVID-19 can rise is likely to determine how quickly communities can emerge from lockdowns and severe restrictions. The Weekly Advertiser and radio stations 3WM and MIXX FM are therefore encouraging people across the Wimmera-Mallee and Western District to quickly assess if vaccination is right for them. We in turn urge people who are eligible, have weighed up or sought medical advice about individual risk factors and decided to get vaccinated to avoid delaying in booking at the nearest vaccination clinic. The Wimmera has historically been among the best regions in Victoria in embracing vaccination programs and we encourage everyone to help maintain this high bar as we push through the COVID-19 pandemic. As well as keeping as many of our people as safe as possible, lifting the vaccination percentage rates across the Wimmera, Mallee and Western District will strengthen a regional position as part of statewide management of the virus. We can all play our part in beating this scourge. Let’s put our collective shoulder to the wheel and do what we can to open up our communities.

Haenel puts up hand for mayor

orsham councillor Claudia Haenel has declared her intention to nominate for Horsham Rural City Council mayor.

Cr Haenel has put herself forward for the position with a mayoral election scheduled for November 18 and has outlined her intentions in a letter to the media. Mayoral elections, voted on by councillors, occur every 12 months and the Horsham councillors are approaching their first year in office since local government elections. Cr Robyn Gulline is in the mayoral chair. Cr Haenel said when she was elected to the council 11 months ago, she advocated for making a difference to women, water and the Western Highway bypass, to detour heavy vehicles out of Horsham and keep our community streets safe. She said recreational water allocation had now been granted to Green Lake, money had been allocated for a women’s garden, and advocacy to detour heavy vehicles away from residential streets continued. “I am also interested in the aerodrome, aged sector, animals and the arts. I was a practising artist with a degree in fine art and visual culture after many years in media advertising and a small business in health care,” she said. “I have also worked in the rural and hospitality sectors while travelling as a young person. I am now passionate about food sustainability and healthy diet outcomes for our community. “I have rich life experience living and working in Australian capitals and overseas. But I am a Horsham girl at heart and the third generation to

live in Horsham North, where my mum still lives after 60 years in the family home. I live east of Horsham in St Helens Plains, on the edge of the municipality, but I frequently visit mum at home in Horsham North, for care giving.” Cr Haenel said she believed her achievements and experience made her an ideal candidate for Horsham mayor. “I also believe the council should have choice and diversity when selecting its next mayor, and I believe I provide that choice,” she said. “I am not a member, nor am I affiliated with any political party. My moderate views are completely independent and my own. I have the right balance of experience, transparency, integrity and vision to guide our council group through this COVID recovery and find the opportunities to grow our municipality into the future. “I have asked my fellow councillors for their support and am grateful to those who have encouraged me. The ultimate decision of who will be mayor will be in the hands of my fellow councillors. “If I am successfully elected as mayor I will lead with my values of ‘excellence in leadership through aspirational and sustainable innovation, delivered ethically and transparently’, for regional community liveability, sustainability and accessibility. “I appreciate the meaningful connections I have made in the community while out and about doing ‘Coffee with Cr Claudia’, whether it be Café 22 in Horsham Plaza, Weir Park at the Wimmera River or the Police Paddock reserve in Horsham North.”

Healthy ageing focus of expo West Wimmera Health Service is gearing up for a Happy Healthy Ageing Expo to celebrate and educate elderly people. The service has organised a three-part online expo in response to the COVID-19 pandemic reducing preventative-health appointments. Community health executive director Alex Hall said she was excited about the upcoming expo. “COVID restrictions have really challenged the community health team and we have been exploring innovative ways to ensure our communities still have access to key health information,” she said. “Our format is three days, over three months, where our highly experienced allied health and nursing professionals will present three key topics: Get Checked, Live Healthy and Be Prepared.” The first of the series is from 10am to 2pm tomorrow and will feature the ‘get checked’ theme. Focusing on identifying health issues early and preventing them in the first place, keynote speaker Dr Sean MacDermott will share his experience of finding cancer early. People will also be able to learn more about – • Health screenings from community health nurses. • Diabetes management, education and prevention. • Prostate cancer detection, care and support from a specialist prostate cancer nurse. • Dental care and regular checks. • Footwear support and balance. • Falls prevention. Acting chief executive Darren Welsh said an online presentation would be a new format for the service and it enabled the organisation to provide important health messages to communities in the comfort of their own homes. “The continued and varying restrictions have limited our capabilities to have hundreds of people together, so we hope the community will embrace this new online expo format,” he said. “The service is committed to sharing these important health messages to support a happy, healthy ageing life.” People can register for any or all of the expo days online via Eventbrite by following link https://bit.ly/3z9tboM or calling Alana on 5391 4314 for help to register or to find out more information.

Silos to come to life at drive-in show

ilo artwork at Sheep Hills between Warracknabeal and Minyip will provide a dramatic ‘drive-in’ backdrop for a unique night of musical entertainment later this month.

Rotary Club of Warracknabeal is revisiting the popular drive-in concept to help pave the way for a major return of live, high-quality entertainment to the region. The Sheep Hills silos will light up and provide the setting for an October 30 Drive In Opera concert featuring Boolite opera singer Sofia Laursen Habel. Celebrated Australian Opera tenor Michael Lapina is also pencilled in to perform. The musical performance will be relayed to people through their car radios at the GrainCorp site, with technical help and promotion from ACE Radio Broadcasters and the team at radio stations 3WM and MIXX FM and The Weekly Advertiser. The event will double as an opportunity for patrons to experience high-calibre live music and farewell and thank Laursen Habel before she leaves for Denmark in November to further her singing career. The Rotary club has organised the event to raise money for Warracknabeal and District Country Education Foundation. It hopes to raise about $5000. The foundation supports young district people with grants to help them with tertiary studies. In its third year, the foundation has already provided financial help to almost 10 people in realising their career aspirations. Rotarian Wendy Hewitt said the more money for the foundation, the more Warracknabeal district youth the club could help. “Initial plans for such an event involved a live opera performance in a shearing shed with catering,” she said. “However COVID-19 restrictions put a stop to that. Ideas for an outdoor event were considered, with the final concept of a drive-in at the Sheep Hills silos ticking all the boxes. “There was a lot of work needed though to prepare for such an event and the Rotary club is very grateful for the incredible and timely support from all partners from GrainCorp, which owns the land, and Yarriambiack Shire Council, which leases the area. “The council is working on the drainage and upgrading of the site to enable the best parking space. GrainCorp is also helping with the lighting of the silos and upgrading the site.” To comply with COVID-safe regulations, patrons will enter the venue using a QR code or manual registration.

They will also obtain information about receiving sound into their car radios. “To add to the sparkle of the event, a gourmet grazing box can be pre-ordered to be collected on the night. There will also be some limited light refreshments available at the venue,” Mrs Hewitt said. “The number attending will be restricted by car spaces, not people, and we envisage from between 50 and 80 cars will be our limit. “Already there is a lot of interest in this unique event, so we are expecting tickets will sell quickly.”

Innovation

ACE Radio Horsham general manager Brendan O’Loughlin said the event was a prime example of Wimmera innovation. “It’s representative of the type of outside-thebox thinking our community organisations are going to have to develop as we venture forth from the pandemic,” he said. The Saturday drive-in concert will be from 7.30pm to 9.30pm. Tickets are $100 a car and will go on sale on Tuesday with more details in coming editions of The Weekly Advertiser, Warracknabeal Herald and Rotary Club of Warracknabeal website and Facebook pages. People keen to find out more can call Mrs Hewitt on 0427 332 193 or club president John Aitken on 0418 103 697. Laursen Habel grew up 15 kilometres from the Sheep Hills silos and her performance will include music from a variety of genres as she draws on her growing experiences from musical theatre as well as opera and major productions. A passion for her community and making classical music accessible to rural Victoria led to her obtaining a creativity grant from University of Melbourne. She used this grant to curate a 2019 money-raising concert for Wimmera Health Care Group in Horsham, scheduled again on November 14. Laursen Habel returned to the family farm after graduating from Melbourne Conservatorium of Music in June, 2020. Lapina has been a professional musical performer since 1988 and has extensively toured Australia and Asia. Since 2006, he has been engaged with many of Australia’s leading opera houses to perform some of the most coveted tenor roles in the operatic repertoire. He juggles his professional opera career with being performing arts director at Saltwater P-9 College in Point Cook, and is the assistant governor of Rotary International District 9800 in Australia.

Road reconstruction at Willaura

Work to reconstruct, widen and reseal a 720-metre section of Delacombe Way, starting from Main Street in Willaura, near Willaura Recreation Reserve, started last week. The State Government’s AgriLinks Upgrade Program is funding the $478,000 project. Ararat Rural City Council chief executive Tim Harrison said the Delacombe Way upgrade would make the road safer and more efficient for regional agricultural freight.

“Delacombe way is a vital linkage road supporting heavy freight traffic through the south corridor,” he said. “As works begin on Delacombe Way, motorists might experience delays due to reduced speeds. The road will periodically close and when necessary, a detour will be posted.” Council crews will be carrying out the project and expect to complete the work, weather permitting, by January.

Tech ‘tools’ to aid mental health

eadspace Horsham will lead a stateof-the-art virtual reality program with nine other services across Victoria and NSW as part of a 12-month pilot aimed at improving the mental health of young people.

The psycho-education program, designed by Spanish-based software developer Psious, launched ahead of Mental Health Week, which started on Sunday. Headspace Horsham clinical lead Sandi McLaughlin said the program was designed to help improve mental-health outcomes for young people. “There’s an increasing number of young people needing mental-health support and this program will allow for more early intervention on issues such as depression and anxiety,” she said. “Virtual reality has proven to be a powerful therapeutic tool and this technology allows young people to recreate real-life experiences in controlled environments where they feel safe, such as at headspace or at home. “It equips young people with the tools they need to deal with challenging situations, confront their fears and learn coping strategies to feel better about themselves and the world around them.”

Psious chief executive Xavier Palomer said the program was the first virtual-reality platform specifically designed to support mental health. “I think of the mind as an incredible machine. We all want to better understand our complex feelings and emotions and we’ve created tools which help do this for young people,” he said. Member for Lowan and Shadow Minister for Mental Health Emma Kealy welcomed the program. “We know that many of our young people have struggled with mental health during lockdowns and are in need of more support,” she said. “It’s fantastic that headspace Horsham is developing innovative ideas for how we can best support our young people, particularly those living in regional and rural Victoria where there are substantial gaps in access to mental-health services and support.” Headspace Horsham provides free counselling and support to people aged 12 to 25 years on issues such as relationships, drug and alcohol, mental health, bullying, anxiety, depression, bothering thoughts and uncertainty. People seeking more information can call headspace Horsham on 5381 1543 or visit the office at 77 Hamilton Street, Horsham.

Second round of pop-up clinics West Wimmera Health Service and Royal Flying Doctor Service are teaming up again to help people continue to arm themselves against COVID-19 with a second round of vaccination clinics in Nhill, Kaniva and Goroke. The vaccination clinics follow successful popup clinics last month and will give people aged 60 and younger greater access to Pfizer vaccine.

Clinics: Nhill Community Centre: October 25, 26, 28 and 29, 9am to 4.15pm; Kaniva Hospital Day Centre, October 27, 9am to 4.15pm; Goroke Community Health Centre, November 5, 9am to 4.15pm. Vaccinations are by appointment only and people can reserve their place by calling 5363 2201.

PLENTY ON OFFER: Headspace community awareness officers Trina Gloury, left, and Cass Jeffery with books for a new young adult book club, which launches this afternoon. Picture: PAUL CARRACHER

Invitation to join book club Members of a new club designed to create a positive, inclusive community for young booklovers will meet for the first time this afternoon. Headspace Horsham youth engagement and community awareness officer Trina Gloury said Young Adult Book Club members would meet in person at Wimmera Wellbeing Centre in Urquhart Street at 4pm, as well as virtually via Zoom. “In our first meeting we will be chatting about all our favourite books, books we hope to read during book club and all members will receive a fun reading goody bag,” she said.

The book club is for youth aged between 15 and 18. “The whole purpose is to break the social isolation that a lot of young people are facing at the moment,” Mrs Gloury said. “We’re really excited. The book club is entirely free, so we’ll get all our books from Horsham Library. They have very happily and kindly collaborated with us, which is great. “We also have an app we’re going to be using, where young people can use e-books and audio books if that’s their medium of choice.” Mrs Gloury said the book club was designed to create a

community for young booklovers and provide a positive influence. “I found there wasn’t really an opportunity for young people who like books – the library didn’t have a program as such – so we thought it would be a really nice way to fill a gap,” she said. “We have a few members already and we’re also working on creating a second group for adults aged 18 to 24.” Registration for the book club is essential and people can call 5381 1543 or email info.headspacehorsham@ vt.uniting.org for more information or to register. – Sarah Matthews

CupVID

Harrow on move It is the oldest runner in the COVID Cup field, but that has not stopped the heritage town of Harrow making a move in the ‘race that starts the nation’. Cup ‘stewards’ have re-handicapped towns in the mock race that promotes Wimmera-Mallee vaccination rates by declaring second-dose vaccine percentages will now provide true placings. Harrow has a 76 percent vaccination rate, edging past Kaniva and moving closer to front-runner Birchip at 83 percent. Harrow’s move has impressed ‘chief steward’ Dr Rob Grenfell from Grampians Public Health Unit. “Harrow was back in fifth not long after the jump. It has pounced to give itself a red-hot chance,” he said. “There are also a few genuine stayers among the field that could push on from here. “You have to be impressed with bigger towns like Stawell and Warracknabeal heading towards 70 percent already. Goroke and Murtoa are also runners to watch.” Dr Grenfell said the race for full vaccination was always going to come down to staying power and commitment. “Closer to the finish we will see some easing of restrictions and with them will be significant moves in the cup,” he said. “It’s now about the staying power of the contenders and that means the percentage of second-dose rates across our competing towns. “We all know that the second dose is so important at giving us the strongest immunity, so don’t forget to get your booster dose. Not only will it prevent you from ending up in hospital from a COVID-19 infection, but it will also push your town’s vaccination rate further towards the top.” Dr Grenfell had a message for towns at the back of the field. “Get onto your local vaccination hub for a shot in the arm to lift your performance,” he said.

Before we can do the thing we want to do, there’s something we all need to do first. Book your COVID-19 vaccination. Visit Australia.gov.au or call 1800 020 080.

Kealy calls for rapid testing

ember for Lowan Emma Kealy has called on Victorian Health Minister Martin Foley to open the door for rapid COVID-19 testing of workers who fail to be vaccinated by a mandated deadline.

Ms Kealy said rapid testing represented a way to fill essential jobs that a vaccinated workforce was unable to meet in her electorate. She said in industries where there were no alternative workers available, and particularly in areas in Lowan where there are no localised cases of COVID-19 and high rates of vaccination, the government had to consider alternatives to mandatory vaccination. Ms Kealy raised the issue as an adjournment matter in State Parliament yesterday, saying it was particularly relevant to community services such as childcare and education as well as business. “I ask the minister to permit rapid testing for workers who are not vaccinated to ensure the ‘unintended consequences’ of a reduced workforce does not inadvertently yet significantly cut access to essential services and businesses in our wider community,” she said. Ms Kealy said rapid testing was essential because a replacement workforce was unavailable to replace unvaccinated staff unable to attend work. “In these businesses and community services, because there isn’t an abundance of workers available, we simply can’t backfill those roles in the short term,” she said.

“There is already a critical shortage of childcare workers, teachers and trained workers in key roles across Lowan – our employment issue isn’t a matter of unemployment, but around filling vacant jobs. “In my electorate, I have been contacted by parents in Horsham and Hamilton who have been told that childcare will not be available from the mandated vaccination date – simply because some workers will not be vaccinated by the deadline and these roles cannot be filled. “We’re also weeks away from harvest, yet unvaccinated workers will not be able to perform essential support. “Given the majority of this work involves no contact with other people, sitting in a truck or header by yourself, and due to the chronic lack of farmhands and harvest workers, this could be devastating for our agricultural sector.” Ms Kealy encouraged people to get vaccinated, or make an appointment to speak to their health professional to discuss vaccination. “While I can see that mandating vaccination will push up lagging vaccination rates in areas of Melbourne, our region has done an exceptional job of getting vaccinated,” she said. “It is clear that mandating vaccination is having unintended consequences for our services and businesses by reducing the available workforce. An inability to fill these vacancies in the immediate future will result in a significant impact on the wider community where there simply isn’t a fully trained workforce waiting in the wings for a job.”

SPECIAL MESSAGE: Ararat West Primary School students, from left, Indra, Tucker, Archie and Oscar, with teacher Emily Hanns, plan some random acts of kindness ahead of Resilient Ararat’s new Mental Health Week campaign.

Random acts of kindness Resilient Ararat will attempt to bring much-needed joy to the community this week when it launches its latest campaign. Random Acts of Kindness in the Rat will emphasise the importance of practising empathy through kindness by encouraging Ararat residents to complete a random act of kindness for a friend or stranger during Mental Health Week, which started on Sunday. To start the campaign, Resilient Ararat has distributed several ‘kindness calling cards’ to Ararat district schools for students to start filtering into the community. Central Grampians Local Learning and Employment Network executive officer Jane Moriarty said the cards featured instructions for creating a ‘pay it forward’ movement of kindness throughout the week.

“If you receive a calling card, we would love you to follow its instructions and complete a random act of kindness for somebody else,” she said. “You will then need to pass the card on to them so they can continue to spread kindness throughout the community. “We have also created a collection of greeting cards that prompt you to write a kind note to someone else. “These cards highlight that being kind does not always involve a grand gesture or purchasing something for someone.” Ms Moriarty said social media would play an important role in the Random Acts of Kindness in the Rat campaign by ensuring the community could share its kind acts. “Much like our Bean Resilient coffee cup campaign last year, we

want to bring some joy into the community and give people something to smile about, in what has been a difficult time for many,” she said. “We know empathy, compassion and kindness have numerous benefits for mental and physical health for both the giver and the receiver. “To take this a step further, we are encouraging people to share their random acts of kindness on social media. You can do this by taking a photo of the random act of kindness you have received, or of you completing your act of kindness for someone else. Share the image to Instagram or Facebook, tag @ resilientararat and use the hashtag #kindararat. “We can’t wait to see the different ways our community spreads kindness in our town.”

Shoulder Joint Problems

Is the shoulder joint really a joint? Not really, it’s a shallow cavity with the A/C joint on top. The shoulder has a wonderful range of movement. Think about it, the average person can move their shoulder in a number of ranges of motion: up, down, in, out, large circles and up behind your back, or in your case, maybe not. The shoulder is supported by 16 muscles and they’re a bit like a union, one out all out. Also, it has close association with the neck and upper back. So, when there is a problem with the shoulder as chiropractors, we often see locked up muscles in the shoulder region, the shoulder joint not moving as freely as it should and tight, locked up upper back and neck, shoulder blade and clavicle. So how does a Chiropractor help? With adjustment to move the jammed-up areas in the neck, upper back, and shoulder, corrective posture and sometimes massage, you can see a huge improvement. This is also relevant care if you have had shoulder surgery or a fracture in your arm which means you haven’t been able to move it properly. Getting all these areas to move better means that any physio or other treatment, will work better with better results.

Meyer humbled by nominations H

BY SARAH MATTHEWS

orsham Aquatic Centre manager Mark Meyer is in the running for two awards celebrating the life-changing work of Fitness Australia members.

Mr Meyer is a finalist in two 2021 Australian Fitness Awards categories, club manager of the year and male group fitness instructor of the year. Fitness Australia is the industry’s governing body, with the awards open to members nationwide. “I was quite surprised and humbled to be nominated,” Mr Meyer said. “It’s very special.” Mr Meyer hails from Ballarat and relocated to the Wimmera about a decade ago. “I moved to Horsham for work and I’ve been at the aquatic centre almost 10 years,” he said. “I started off on the gym floor, as a personal trainer and a group fitness instructor, then moved my way up into lifeguarding and junior management, centre director and I’m now the manager. “It’s worked out really well. We love Horsham, it’s a great place to raise a family. It’s a really good community and we’re lucky to have such a wonderful facility like this.”

Mr Meyer said while the fitness industry had taken a major hit throughout the COVID-19 pandemic, with Horsham Aquatic Centre subject to closures and restrictions since early 2020, it was important to remain positive. “The best thing we’ve been able to do is continue to try to engage with our members and try to keep them healthy and active in multiple ways,” he said. “We’ve had to be a bit more creative in how we are doing that currently, but I think everyone has had to learn and adapt in the environment we’re in. I think as the lockdowns have gone on, people have been more willing to come back. “Initially, when we were locked down, there was a lot of fear about what it would look like and how it would be. But I think lockdown fatigue is playing a big part, in that when we do open up, people are very quick to come back. “It’s really good to see everyone.” Mr Meyer said he was pleased to open the doors to the public again, albeit in a limited capacity, and looked forward to further easing of restrictions. “It’s very exciting to be able to have the centre open once again and to see our path forward so we can actually fully open up again,” he said. “There’s light at the end of the tunnel.”

Yarri rates notice delay

EXCELLENCE: AME Systems managing director Nick Carthew and employee Sue Bahl at the firm’s Ararat headquarters.

not meet the October 29 due date for the first instalment, they could call the revenue co-ordinator on 53987 0100 or email rates@yarriambiack.vic.gov.au. “You will be granted an extension to pay the first and second instalment by November 30, or an alternative payment plan can be arranged,” she said. Ms Holmes said the council did not charge interest on instalment amounts unless they were unpaid by May 31, the fourth-instalment due date. When paying in full, interest would be applied after February 15. Ms Holmes said more information was available from the council’s revenue co-ordinator.

Yarriambiack Shire Council has informed ratepayers of a delay in the distribution of 2021-2022 rates notices. Council chief executive Jessie Holmes said a change in a processing system had delayed distribution of the notices. “As a result, the first instalment payment date has been extended to late October 2021,” she said. “Rates can either be paid in full by February 15, 2022, or by four instalments. The four instalments are due on October 29, 2021, November 30, 2021, February 28, 2022 and May 31, 2022.” Ms Holmes said if rate payers were concerned they could

Ararat firm wins national accolade

rarat success story AME Systems has continued to cement its position as a major player in Victorian manufacturing by winning a national business award.

The multi-million-dollar firm, which manufactures electrical harnesses and assemblies for an international clientele, won a business excellence category at 2021 Australian Business Awards. AME Systems specialises in customised electrical ‘solutions’ for heavy transport, aerospace, defence, rail, agriculture and special-purpose vehicles and machinery, providing service and support from design to delivery. The firm has a workforce of about 400 and in the past few years has established a significant global reputation as a parts supplier in the aerospace and defence industry. AME Systems took a profound manufacturing leap in 2017 when it ventured beyond the truck, bus and mining-equipment field into the aerospace and defence sector in response to increased Federal Government investment. It then reached a major milestone with certification in international quality management system standards for the aviation, space and defence industry. A major latest example of its success in the field has included forming a partnership with Boeing Australia to provide electrical wiring systems to support the Loyal Wingman Advanced Development Program for the Royal Australian Air Force. Another was to produce wire harnesses for American aerospace and defence technology company Northrop Grumman for its aircraft for use by the United States Navy. The awards, in their 16th year, recognise organisations that demonstrate core values of business and product innovation, technological

achievement and employee engagement via a set of established business and product award categories. AME Systems managing director Nick Carthew said the award affirmed the firm’s commitment to continuous improvement and innovative business processes. “Winning this award is fantastic recognition for our amazing team. Our people have worked tirelessly, with care for each other and are passionate about delivering the world’s finest quality products for our customers’ projects,” he said. “Product is important, but AME Systems believe relationships, honesty, technical knowledge and highest-level customer service are equally important. I am immensely proud to work alongside such great people each day.” Awards program director Tara Johnston said the COVID-19 pandemic had presented one of the most significant business challenges ever faced by organisations across Australia. “It created a critical need for leading organisations to adapt to new working environments and adopt new approaches to innovation while navigating the technical and operational constraints imposed by the lockdown,” she said. She said the program provided an opportunity to acknowledge and honour high-performing organisations that implemented world-class business programs and projects for their achievements, both nationally and internationally. AME Systems has a long history of business and community involvement in Ararat, an approach that still forms the backbone of the company. Its headquarters and manufacturing remain in Ararat and the company also has a finishing and service centre in Melbourne and manufacturing operations in Malaysia. Some families have had three generations represented in the company’s workforce.

Hope for lake top-up plan L

ifetime Green Lake resident Glenn Mibus is among advocates hoping for revamped watersharing arrangements that can lead to regularly maintaining recreation levels in the popular lake.

Mr Mibus described water flowing in the inlet creek through his property into the lake southeast of Horsham as fantastic and ‘a long time waiting’ and agreed watching the flow was cathartic. “It’s been a bit of a process but we finally got it. The local community has been pushing for this for ages,” he said. “Now we want to try to get some long-term arrangements in place where we can keep getting top-ups without long periods of negotiation. “The lake is an icon for the region and should be treated that way.” Green Lake, developed initially as a storage for regional water supply, no longer plays a regular role in supply scheduling and is now listed as a recreational lake and used for managing water quality. It only receives water from occasional natural flows, excess supply or through opportunities identified by bulk-entitlement holder and system manager GWMWater. GWMWater, in a $60,000 deal with Horsham Rural City Council, is allocating 2500 megalitres to the lake this spring. Wimmera Catchment Management Authority, in charge of environmental water assets in the region, has also confirmed it will direct more water to Green Lake from any spill that might occur from a filling Lake Wartook in the Grampians.

Picture: PAUL CARRACHER included a need for recreation as well as stock and domestic and environmental supply. Findings of relatively recent studies into socio-economic value of recreation water estimate its value at about $30-million. Apart from Green Lake near Horsham, GWMWater’s board has committed to using the corporation’s own reserves to pipe a top-up 2690 megalitres to 14 recreational lakes and weir pools, mainly in the Mallee. The supply is the corporation’s fourth annual allocation in a row. There is no specific recreational body represented independently among bulk-entitlement holders in

It hopes to use a rising level at Green Lake to push water further on to Boga Lakes neighbour Dock Lake, a noted environmental wetland. Mr Mibus said Green Lake’s inlet creek had managed to flow ‘under its own steam’ for a couple of weeks earlier this year. “Remarkably when we found out water was going to the lake we had a thunderstorm and it again ran briefly on its own,” he said. The provision of recreational water across the region remains the subject of significant debate. A business case that led to construction of the Wimmera-Mallee Pipeline

Health service accreditation Australia’s leading health-care accreditation agency has confirmed West Wimmera Health Service as a high-quality care provider by awarding it accreditation. The Australian Council on Healthcare Standards, ACHS, issued the acknowledgement through National Safety and Quality Health Service Standards. West Wimmera group acting chief executive Darren Welsh said it was important to achieve accreditation because it confirmed how a health-care organisation provided safe and quality care to patients. “ACHS accreditation sends a clear message to the community that the service, its management and staff, are committed to excellence in health care with a strong and continuous focus on safety and quality,” he said. “I commend all staff involved, as well as the consumers for their contribution, not only during the assessment and evaluation process, but also for their support and commitment to quality through continuing dialogue and improvement initiatives. “The assessors noted that they were very impressed with the patient-centred care approach that all staff demonstrated and how overwhelmingly evident it was that all staff work together to provide safe, quality care. “We are aware that both patients and consumers today demand high standards of health care and are pleased that West Wimmera Health Service has been recognised for meeting this expectation.” Organisations must demonstrate during a three-year period how they have improved their services. ACHS is an independent, not-for-profit organisation, which has international recognition for assessment and evaluation from the International Society for Quality in Health Care and accredits the majority of health-care organisations in Australia.

Ararat at new record low

atest Federal Government data has revealed Ararat’s unemployment rate fell to a record low 3.1 percent during the June quarter of 2021.

The figures prompted a response from Ararat Rural City Council chief executive Tim Harrison, who congratulated Ararat district businesses and the community. He said the figures reflected how the Ararat community came together and had shown confidence in the rural city despite the impact of COVID-19. “This is an extraordinary result, proving that business investment, new planning approvals and population growth has created a strong and robust economy in Ararat,” he said. “An unemployment rate of 3.1 percent represents effective full employment, sitting more than two percent below the pre-pandemic rate of 5.2 percent in December 2019 and 4.4 percent below a 7.5 percent unemployment rate just five years ago. “The Commonwealth employment data also mirrors the findings of the council’s businesses occupancy survey, with new businesses contributing to an office and retail vacancy rate in the Ararat central business district of just 3.3 percent.” Dr Harrison said the results were testament to a collective community effort ‘shifting up a gear’ in response to the pandemic. “The work we have done to invest record levels of funding in capital works

to improve local roads and community infrastructure not only keeps people in jobs but has made Ararat more liveable, sustainable and productive,” he said. “With an accelerated shift to the regions underway created by the exodus of people escaping capital cities looking for jobs and a tree change, we are ready to offer them an enviable lifestyle, employment and freedom. “In recent years, a partial market-failure situation driven by development costs that are close to achievable sale prices is the downside to low unemployment for local industry that can’t secure a workforce to meet contract demand. “These businesses need an in-migration of workers to continue expansion, with workers and their families needing housing. “A booming local real-estate market, the council’s ‘red-carpet not red-tape approach’ to planning, and recent funding from the Victorian government to deliver trunk infrastructure connections to the Ararat East Development Zone has begun to turn this situation around. “Renewed market confidence is now leveraging financing and development investment in Ararat to get a number of housing projects underway. “This includes the Evans Park Estate, Chalambar Links Estate, Greenhill Lake Development and infill development projects, which will make a major contribution to growing the critical mass of the Ararat population, setting us up for our prosperity to continue.”

Council help for COVID-safe plans Northern Grampians Shire Council is offering businesses in the shire help with implementing and understanding mandatory COVID-safe requirements. The council has deployed additional officers to provide the service through a State Government Business Concierge and Hospitality Support Program. The program will run until the end of November and is offering the following help with State Government COVID-safe settings – • COVID-safe plan implementation where none exists. • Checking and recommended up-

dates for businesses with an established COVID-safe plan. • QR code service implementation. • Coronavirus sign and poster use. • Translated coronavirus information, if required. The concierges have been contacting hospitality and retail-sector businesses and are encouraging all businesses needing support to email business.support@ngshire.vic.gov.au or call 5358 8700. The council is reminding businesses operating under a COVID-safe plan to ensure identification checking is occurring as well as QR check-ins. Mayor Murray Emerson said it was

imperative for businesses to remain vigilant to keep the shire safe from COVID-19 outbreaks. “I encourage all businesses in our shire to take full advantage of the assistance available through the business concierge program,” he said. “We know that it does not take much for the Delta variant to spread and this is a timely opportunity for businesses to get some guidance.” Additional information on the program is available online at www. ngshire.vic.gov.au/COVIDSafeplan and www.coronavirus.vic.gov.au/ coronavirus-covidsafe-settings.

Event support

ember for Lowan Emma Kealy has implored the State Government to provide greater support for major regional agricultural events forced off the calendar due to COVID-19.

She said events such as Wimmera Machinery Field Days – Victoria’s longest-running field days – and Hamilton’s Sheepvention were an important part of the year for farmers and businesses alike. “Like so many things in 2020 and 2021, COVID restrictions cruelled any chance of the events being able to run,” she said. “Sheepvention, which normally runs in August each year, could not run in 2020 due to statewide lockdown, and this year organisers were forced to cancel due to the uncertainty about whether restrictions would lift sufficiently for the event to be able to cover costs. “The Wimmera Machinery Field Days committee was in the same position, making the difficult call last winter to cancel the 2021 event set for March.” Ms Kealy said the State Government had largely ignored these events despite the opportunity they provided for thousands of people to meet with

fellow farmers and industry people, and the huge economic injection they gave regional communities. “If these events had access to guaranteed government funding support, they would most likely have been able to run in some capacity in 2021,” she said. “But because of the lack of certainty with continual lockdowns and restrictions, organisers’ hands were forced and both events were off the calendar.” Ms Kealy said the State Government had recognised the value of events such as conferences and exhibitions through grant streams to help businesses cover the costs associated with participating in such events. But she said while businesses could seek support towards site costs, hire costs, staff travel and accommodation for such events, the events themselves were overlooked. “It’s time the government realised just how crucial these events are for our agricultural and rural communities and ensure events such as the Wimmera Machinery Field Days and Sheepvention have the funding, and subsequently the certainty they need to be able to continue to be fixtures in our local communities for many years to come,” Ms Kealy said.

Zoo expert at platypus meeting Zoos Victoria’s Marissa Parrott will be guest speaker at a Project Platypus annual meeting on October 20. Dr Parrott’s presentation, which will be via online digital platform Zoom, telephone and at a Project Platypus office in Stawell, will be based on threatened-species recovery.

Project Platypus is a peak body representing district Landcare groups across the Wimmera’s upper catchment. The meeting will start at 7pm. Under COVID-19 restrictions, participant numbers in the Project Platypus office will be restricted to board and staff members.

10,000 VACCINATIONS: East Grampians Health Service vaccination clinic staff, from left, Emma Coburn, Mary Janssen, Jaz Sabo, Lily Hitchcock, Augusta Obiano and Brenda Green celebrate the 10,000th vaccine at the clinic.

Service celebrates milestone East Grampians Health Service has celebrated the 10,000th vaccination at its community COVID-19 vaccination clinic. Health group interim chief executive Peter Armstrong congratulated the community on the milestone and also for reaching major first-dose and second-dose vaccination rates. “The vaccine will protect you, your family and your community,” he said. “It is the most effective way to protect against serious disease and possible death and we urge anyone eligible, who has yet to be vaccinated, to come forward and make an appointment as soon as possible.

“Our EGHS vaccination clinic staff will be in contact with everyone who had an appointment at Ararat Medical Centre for a COVID-19 vaccination to reschedule an appointment at the EGHS vaccination clinic,” he said. “Please be patient as our staff work their way through the medical centre list, you will receive a call as soon as possible.” People can book an appointment for a vaccination by calling 1800 675 398 or 5352 9363 or through the online portal at https://portal.cvms. vic.gov.au.

“The sooner we get everyone in our community vaccinated the quicker life can return to close to normal.” Mr Armstrong said anyone aged 12 and older was eligible for the vaccine, with the EGHS Community COVID-19 Vaccination Clinic now equipped to carry out 200 vaccinations a day, Monday to Friday. Both Pfizer and AstraZeneca vaccines are being offered in Ararat. Mr Armstrong said Ararat Medical Centre would no longer be carrying out COVID vaccinations, to allow it to continue to provide medical support to the community and the hospital and minimise the number of people attending the centre.

Let’s give it our best shot, The Grampians Way Grampians Tourism is getting behind Tourism Australia’s initiative to get people vaccinated so the tourism industry can hit the target vaccination rates and welcome back more travellers. The regional tourism board is encouraging the wider community to show their support and get jabbed, as the best shot at reopening their beautiful region, to get the local industry thriving again, and to rebuild travellers’ confidence to plan and book travel once restrictions ease. And with tight restrictions and density limits on many venues still in place across the region, they are suggesting visitors book or call in advance and remind everyone to be patient, kind and respectful during these uncertain and difficult times. Next month Grampians Tourism will be rolling out its new ‘Space to Breathe’ creative and redirecting the marketing focus – paid and owned channels – to regional Victoria to keep the destination front of mind and to boost region-to-region visitation from their neighbours for the next couple of months. With a catchment of about 600,000 residents within a two-hour radius of the Grampians who have not been affected by the latest lockdown, Grampians Tourism believes this is the best opportunity right now to support the continued economic recovery and ease the losses local businesses are currently experiencing. The simplicity of the message to ‘Find the space to breathe’, The Grampians Way, should resonate strongly with audience sentiment post the recent lockdowns. Grampians Tourism chief executive Marc Sleeman said he knew Grampians businesses had been doing it tough. “We appreciate the work you are all doing to operate in the current conditions. And even though much of the state is still in hiatus, we will be working hard behind the scenes to keep the region front of mind for the future,” he said.

Back on top Lockdowns in three states fail to hinder new-car sales growth in Australia, with Ford’s ageing Ranger returning to top sales spot last month

espite the prolonged lockdowns of New South Wales, Victoria and the ACT, Australia’s new-car market has continued to grow in 2021 with sales up 20.8 percent in September compared with the same month last year, taking the yearly total to 816,140 vehicles.

growth last month, with sales down 35.4 percent and 7.9 percent respectively. Victoria, the Northern Territory, Tasmania, Queensland, South Australia and Western Australia all enjoyed growth of at least 16.6 percent – in that order – with the former posting a 96.2 percent improvement compared with 12 months ago, despite still being in lockdown. While the results are far from record breaking, Federal Chamber of Automotive Industries chief executive Tony Weber said the success was bittersweet for manufacturers. “These are challenging times, but automotive manufacturers are rising to meet them,” he said.

Australians purchased 83,312 new vehicles across 25.6 selling days last month compared with the 68,985 delivered over the 25.9 selling days in September 2020, leaving the market 26.6 percent better off for the year. Predictably at a state and territory level, locked-down ACT and New South Wales failed to record any

“Brands are working across their supply chains to deal with microprocessor issues and consumers are embracing online purchasing through click and collect delivery options. “In many respects these figures give the industry great encouragement and excitement for what will be possible in 2022 when lockdowns will hopefully be a thing of the past.” Not even a lockdown in three separate states and territories could hinder Toyota’s success last month as it continued its run of total dominance with a 24.3 percent stranglehold on the market from 20,216 units. Toyota was so far out in front that Mazda, which ranked second, sold less than a third as many vehicles,

with the final margin being 13,661 deliveries. Giving Mazda a vague run for its money was Ford, which was primarily kept in the game by another excellent month for its Ranger, while fourth and fifth were scrapped out by Korean sister brands Hyundai and Kia. Sixth place went to Mitsubishi with its 4605 sales netting it a 5.5 percent share of the market, followed by Volkswagen in seventh and Isuzu Ute in eighth. Subaru’s 3062-unit tally earned it a 3.6 percent slice of the market, narrowly besting the Chinese-owned MG, which posted 3010 sales for a near-enough equal 3.6 percent share. In terms of the best-selling mod-

els last month, the Ford Ranger and Toyota HiLux again battled it out at the top – with the fight this time going the way of the Ranger on 4192 units versus 3635. But, while Toyota might have missed out on taking the double last month, best-selling make and model, it still had the last laugh in occupying five of the top 10 spots. Behind the HiLux in third, fourth and fifth were the Corolla, RAV4 and Prado respectively while the Camry nabbed eighth. Filling the gaps were the Hyundai i30 in sixth, Isuzu D-Max in seventh, Mitsubishi ASX in ninth and Mazda BT-50 10th. – Callum Hunter

Honda teases performance hero

onda has outed its new-generation Civic Type R hot hatch with a pair of crisp – but camouflaged – images, giving the world its first look at the brand’s upcoming performance hero ahead of its Nurburgring development phase.

Published last week by Honda’s American arm, the new Type R is easy to distinguish thanks to its gaping front air dam, huge rear wing and triple exhaust outlets, not to mention its obvious ties to the standard Civic hatch that’s due to arrive in the closing stages of 2021. To some eyes at least, the new Type R’s design contains a vague air of the classic Subaru Impreza 22B in its design cues, among them general frontend graphic formed by those slim headlights, the sizable lower bumper opening with intercooler prominently on display and the slimmer upper grille cutout. And like Subaru’s retro rally hero, there’s a sizable wing at the back too. Huge wings are nothing new for the Type R given the current model has one of the biggest aerofoils of any sub-$100,000 performance vehicle at the moment, but for the new-gen Type R that wing will sit on metal stanchions rather than the plastic uprights of the current model. Elsewhere, the new-gen Civic DNA is just as visible, especially down

the flanks and at the rear of the car with all of the same character lines and Kia Stinger-esque tail-lights being identifiable. However, while the current FK8 Civic Type R pumps up its rear wheelarches via add-on plastic overfenders, its replacement appears to affect that same girth through sheetmetal contouring instead.

Civic will use a carryover updated engine, we expect the flagship to use a similarly-enhanced version of the familiar 2.0-litre turbo four-banger. For reference, the current model develops a class-leading 228kW of power and chunky 400Nm of torque, all of which is shoved through the front wheels via a six-speed manual transmission with the help of a limited slip differential – expect familiar specs for the new one. Adaptive suspension is also a likely starter, as is Honda’s ‘LogR’ data logging software, which allows drivers to monitor and record different performance parameters such as lap times through the infotainment system, while also displaying key vehicle information. The Type R nameplate has been around since 1992 when it debuted on the NSX supercar, however it was not applied to the Civic until 1997 with the release of the EK9 generation. Since then, it has spanned five generations of Civic to date, with the MY22 version set to be the sixth iteration of what has become one of the most famous hot hatch lineages. With the ‘vanilla’ Civic range not due to arrive Down Under until later this year, it seems unlikely we will see the new Type R on Australian soil before the third or fourth quarters of 2022. – Callum Hunter

Peugeot’s van range expanding

eugeot Australia has revealed pricing of its new light commercial vehicle range for 2022, including a revitalised model grade walk-up for its Boxer, Expert and Partner portfolios.

GREATER CHOICE: Peugeot Australia has revealed details of its new light commercial vehicle range for 2022, including a revitalised model grade walk-up for its Boxer, Expert and Partner, pictured, portfolios. Peugeot says this comprehensively equipped van is made to stand out, and is safe, comfortable and equipment packed. Long and short-wheelbase variants remain available, as does the choice of petrol and diesel engines with manual or automatic transmissions. The flagship of the Peugeot LCV range is the full-size Boxer, which is now priced from $48,990 before onroad costs. Available as a single vari-

ant for MY22, the three-seat Boxer Long Pro features a 1590kg payload and 13-cubic-metre cargo space across its 3700mm load bed. A carry-over 2.0-litre four-cylinder turbo-diesel engine developing 120kW-310Nm is paired exclusively with a six-speed manual transmission in the Boxer, providing fuel consumption of 6.4 litres per 100km on the ADR combined cycle. The Boxer continues to offer a

braked towing capacity of 2500kg. Mid-size Peugeot Expert, priced from $38,990 plus on-road costs, will now chase segment volume with a revised line-up Peugeot Australia says makes each variant a distinct value proposition. Short and long body lengths feature a common 1940mm roof height, and the availability of two turbodiesel engine options. The first, a 2.0-litre four-cylinder, develops 110kW-370Nm and is paired

Aimed at meeting a variety of business needs, Peugeot says its revised MY22 range will give LCV customers greater choice by making its small, medium and large vans available in a variety of model-dependant trim grades. The change brings a specification realignment to Peugeot’s once-basic LCV range, the French marque describing the new trim grades as ‘providing a choice of equipment levels closely aligned to each vehicle’s intended use’. As such, entry-level City variants, Peugeot says, are all about work, the brand making minor equipment adjustments to target a lower price point when compared with equivalent outgoing models. The next tier Pro variants are aimed at owner-drivers in need of a ‘fit for purpose’ van with improved safety and equipment levels, while the thirdtier Premium offers a more car-like experience for small-to-medium operators and tool-of-trade buyers. At the top of the four-variant strategy is the Sport, which is exclusive to the mid-size Expert range.

to a six-speed manual transmission or optional eight-speed automatic, while the second ‘high output’ version offers 130kW-400Nm from the same engine capacity and offered with an eightspeed auto only. All Expert models include dual side sliding doors and barn doors at the rear. Payload ranges from 10001350kg with between 5.3 and 6.1 cubic metres of cargo space available between variants. Braked towing capacity is listed at 2100kg and 1800kg for short and long wheelbase models respectively. For the small-sized Partner, short and long wheelbase variants come with 1.2-litre petrol engines in two states of tune. Available with 81kW-205Nm with a six-speed manual transmission or 96kW-230Nm with an eight-speed auto, the three-seat Partner also provides maximum payload capacities of 629-1000kg depending on variant. Carrying capacity ranges from 3.9 to 4.4 cubic metres for short and long wheelbase variants respectively, with braked towing capacity ranging from 950 to 1300kg. Full specifications for the MY22Boxer, Expert, and Partner models will be announced closer to their Australian launch in early 2022. – Matt Brogan

Hope gives us courage.

There are many amazing stories in God’s word and we find one of them in Luke Chapter 7 verses 36-50. Here we read a story of when a woman comes to Jesus and because of the hope she has in him, her hope that he will love her and forgive her, she does some amazing things. Now what she does by today’s standards seems very unusual. She washes Christ feet with oil and her tears and dries them with her hair. While it seems weird in our Australian context it was a tradition back then to wash peoples feet, it was seen as a welcoming gesture when people came to your house. The issue here is it was never done by a stranger, the women, and you never cried on feet or dried them with your own hair. What gave her the boldness, the courage to do this and be forgiven; it was her hope in Christ. As I mentioned last week we live in a world crying out for hope and a major consequence of hopelessness is fear. Yes we need to have rational fear to keep us safe but when fear grips our life because of what appears an uncertain future, when fear grips us to the extent that we start to shut down from those around us, when we get worried about the smallest thing, this is when we need God’s certain hope. Let us follow the example of this woman, she stood up and went forward in hope of Christ, it gave her the courage to do this and what was the consequence? She was forgiven, she was made whole and so too can we when we hope not on other people or other things but God. Capt. Greg Turnbull, The Salvation Army Ararat/Stawell

Country Today Weekdays from noon on

All ready for Horsham Cup A

BY JOSH MILLER

super day of racing looms this Sunday as Horsham and District Racing Club hosts the 2021 edition of the Millers Horsham Cup.

The $60,000 event headlines a terrific card of racing, which also features a $100,000 heat for the Melbourne Cup Carnival Country Series. This will be a hotly contested affair with the first two runners to greet the judge progressing to the country final at Flemington on Oaks Day on November 4, a race that carries a purse of $500,000. Horsham club president Jason Merlo said having a race like this on the program was a boost for the club. “We had some of the bigger stables bring horses to our meeting last month and having a race like this encourages them to come back and bring their better ones here,” he said. Mr Merlo also noted the change in cup distance from 1800 to 2100 metres as a positive development. “Out to the further distance we can attract a better type of horse whose connections might be looking to roll onto bigger and better things,” he said. While lamenting the absence of patrons this week, Mr Merlo said the club remained upbeat about welcoming the public back to annual Santa Day races on December 19. “People can start looking online.

UP FOR GRABS: Horsham and District Racing Club manager Charmayne Parry and trainer Paul Preusker, with horse Bruno Stars, prepare for the 2021 Horsham Cup. Preusker will have two runners in the main event, Coin Collector and All Ends Rock. Picture: PAUL CARRACHER We’re throwing together some packages and they’ll be right to start bookings at the end of the week,” he said. Wimmera connections have traditionally fared well on Horsham Cup Day and this year looks no exception. Horsham trainer Paul Preusker will saddle up a strong hand of runners throughout the day and has identified Coin Collector as one of his key chances. The five-year-old gelding is a recent addition to his McKenzie Creek operation and Preusker expects the new-

comer to put his best foot forward in the cup. “He ran well in the Murtoa Cup last start given he doesn’t like wet ground,” he said. “The 2100 metres suits and the track will suit him. He’ll go forward and make his own luck.” Preusker described the ex-Danny O’Brien galloper as a ‘nice enough horse’ but conceded the change in cup distance presented a new challenge. “Having the race go back to the 2100

metres throws up a few unknowns,” he said. Preusker will unveil a few first starters at Sunday’s meeting, noting they will all be better for the race-day experience. The winners keep coming from recent sets of jump-outs across the Wimmera. Astute readers of this column would have backed $6 Savatoxl to win the Group Two Schillaci Stakes at Caulfield last Saturday, following his impressive pipe-opener at Ararat a fortnight earlier.

Muszkieta leads way Horsham Racing Pigeon Club’s 2021 season is nearing completion with two or possibly three weekends remaining. John Muszkieta leads 2021 championship standings, but Leigh Arnott recorded a commanding win in a 230-kilometre Bannockburn race at the weekend. Pigeons flew into a north-westerly breeze up to 22kmh resulting in the entry of 313 racing pigeons averaging a relatively slow time. The leading pigeon arrived home after a 4.59-hour flight. A Bruce Rentsch entry was second home after allowing for overfly by 7.28 minutes. Results – Section one for small race teams: 1, Bruce Rentsch at 740.39 metres a minute and second in championship; 2, The McPhee Family, 575.85mm; 3, Ken Kerr, 397.36mm. Section two for large race teams: 1, Leigh Arnott, 758.66mm; 2, John Muszkieta 669.89mm; 3, John Aisbett, 663.91mm. This weekend’s racing will be from Bookaloo and Pimba.

Mannings shine BY TONY LOGAN

arness racing father-daughter team Peter and Kerryn Manning took out Stawell Harness Racing Club’s feature event for juvenile trotters, The Maori Legend, at Laidlaw Park last week.

They won with talented two-year-old gelding Plymouth Chubb. With a string of six straight wins to his credit, Plymouth Chubb was rated a certainty by most, but anyone who’d taken the prohibitive $1.10 on offer had a heart-in-mouth moment when the red-hot-favourite galloped in the score up. Fortunately, Kerryn got him back trotting to be only a couple of lengths from the gate when the small field of five was dispatched. When balanced up, Plymouth Chubb worked forward to park outside the leader for the next lap and a bit of the journey. Given more rein at the 500-metre mark, Plymouth Chubb forged to the lead around the final bend and scored untouched by 2.3 metres from Eds Dream – Anthony Butt, with Mercenary – Jason Lee, a further 4.6-metres away in third place. While the mile rate of 2.05.7 was nothing startling, there’s no doubt the winner rates with the best on the Maori Legend honour roll – Andy’s Favourite, Donttelmehetrots, Sunset Invasion and Sleepee – and could even better their performances in classic and group class racing. Charlton’s training team of Michael Gadsden and Denbeigh Wade were successful at Shepparton when four-year-old entire Notsokool put it all together to take out a $7000 maiden pace over 1690 metres. Notsokool settled at the tail of the field from

his second-line draw and made a forward move three-wide to join the leader Colby Art at the bell. Wade gave her charge more rein with 400 to go and the son of The Wrath Of Pan USA surged to the front at the top of the home straight and increased the margin to 12 metres at the post. All going well Notsokool will race again at Kilmore on Friday. Horsham Harness Racing Club president Terry Lewis enjoyed a win with Mynameisjeff at Geelong last week. Lightly raced because of injury, the five-yearold gelding ‘beat up’ his four rivals in not much more than a training drill. Mynameisjeff, with Sophia Arvidsson aboard, set a moderate tempo through the first three quarters of the journey then scooted home in 26.9 seconds to score by six metres from The Chancer – Taylor Ford – in a rate of 1:57.6. The son of Rock N Roll Heaven USA and Nightoffire has built a more than handy record of six wins, seven minors and $32,107 from 14 starts and is likely to take on better company in a $20,000 contest at Ballarat on Saturday. Armstrong trainer Danny O’Brien made a successful, long haul to Mildura on Friday with Danceforme victorious in the $7000 Gateway three-year-old pace. Forced to work hard early in the race by driver Michelle Phillips when pressured for the pegs by Animado – Alex Ashwood, Danceforme enjoyed a more comfortable tempo through the middle part of the 2190-metre trip. Despite racing a little greenly in the final lap, Danceforme went on to score by 2.5 metres in a solid rate of 1:59.1 and should further benefit from the outing being first-up from a spell.

NEW VENTURE: Talented netballer Sacha McDonald has signed with London Pulse in the United Kingdom’s Vitality Netball Superleague.

McDonald sets sights on London Edenhope star sporting export Sacha McDonald will be playing elite-level netball in the United Kingdom from early February next year if preparations go to plan. The talented goal attack and her Melbourne Vixens teammate and close friend Tayla Honey are hoping to jet off to Europe later next month for a tilt at international professional competition. McDonald, 21, starved of court time during the COVID-19 pandemic, has signed with London Pulse in the United Kingdom’s Vitality Netball Superleague, which features elite teams from England, Wales and Scotland. She said from her family

farm at Edenhope yesterday that her last consistent season was in 2019 and she was excited and looking forward to her new adventure. “Even in 2019 I was injured for part of the season so it’s been a long time since I’ve played a full year. I’m now hoping for a nice consistent pre-season, a big season and then perhaps a good off-season break,” she said. “We’ve hoping to leave mid to late November but still have a few things that need to be ticked off. “It will be a big change for me. I have been pretty local in terms of netball and I’m really excited to plunge into it. Making the decision together with a good friend and the en-

couragement of everyone else has lightened the load a lot.” McDonald started her high-level netball pathway at 12, making various state junior teams. She has been in the Vixens squad for the past ‘three or four’ years and a member of Netball Victoria’s Victorian Fury representative side. “I’m really excited and it will be a really nice changeup. I will learn as I go, but that will be part of the fun,” McDonald said. “We’ll get straight into it when we get there and I suspect my next court session will be with London Pulse. “The club has been wonderful and provided us with everything we need.”

Mother-daughter duo triumphant A

BY SARAH MATTHEWS

fter completing 10 marathons, Horsham’s Vicki Tyler was ready to ‘hang up the shoes’ and call time on gruelling, long-distance running… until her daughter Bianca decided to take it up herself.

“I’m 60 and I thought I had enough, but Bianca was keen to do a marathon, so I couldn’t not do it with her,” Vicki said. “My son Tim ran his first marathon in Melbourne in 2019 and I did it with him. That was a real highlight, so I decided I’d do one more with Bianca.” The Tylers were targeting the annual Melbourne Marathon – cancelled last year because of the COVID-19 pandemic – but decided this year’s revised December date was unsuitable. “Because of COVID, our Melbourne Marathon was postponed until December this year or October next year,” Vicki said. “We couldn’t do it in December, it’s just too hot, and it might not happen either. “We were just at our peak with our training, so we thought, nup, we’re going to do it this weekend. It was just great.” On Saturday, Vicki and Bianca completed a 42.2-kilometre run in Horsham. Vicki said she was proud to cross the line

alongside Bianca, 32. “She did a half with me in 2018 and she only did about 13 kilometres,” she said. “She hit a wall in Melbourne and said it was too hot, but anyway, she hadn’t put the shoes back on until now. “And now she’s done it, her first marathon. All the training has paid off.” Vicki said she completed a 12-week training program, with Bianca’s program comprising 18 weeks. “I think it’s very important to follow your program to a tee if you can, just so you don’t hit that wall,” she said. “The most we ran was about 32 kilometres three weeks ago, and then we started tapering.” Vicki paid tribute to Run Horsham group members, who provided support, along with Kelly Miller, who completed the marathon run alongside the pair. Three friends also completed a half marathon. “It was great,” Vicki said. “We had so much support along the whole way – music, drink stations and so on – it was like actually doing it in Melbourne. “You say you’re doing something and they all jump in and help you get your dream. They’re unbelievable.”
