REMINDER THROUGH SOLIDARITY: Football and netball communities across the region will join forces this weekend to spread a message about road safety. The TAC and AFL Victoria Road Safety Round reflects on the lives lost in road trauma and to remind everyone to drive safely. Organisers are urging players, coaches, volunteers and supporters to wear special armbands for the occasion.

‘Show us details’ T

BY DEAN LAWSON

he chairman of a regional organisation with a direct link to State Government decision-makers wants health groups that have signed off on a proposed merger to provide greater clarity on benefits of the move.

Wimmera Southern Mallee Regional Partnership chairman David Jochinke said communities deserved profound understanding of a move that carried significant socio-economic as well as health-service implications.

Mr Jochinke has asked Wimmera Health Care Group and Ballarat Health Services, as the largest healthservice providers involved in the pro-

posal, to provide the community with more detailed information.

“This proposal represents a profound shift that must have clear substantiation that it will broadly and significantly improve circumstances of regional communities,” he said.

“Risks that might occur through attempts to consolidate or improve services but at a cost that involves a loss of jobs, people and skills in the Wimmera and southern Mallee would obviously be detrimental.

“And a change like this must be about community-service improvement, not just maintaining a system to meet a perceived status quo.

“We need a clear demonstration there will be improvement.

“Having no reduction in services, for example, is not a compelling enough reason for these groups to merge and it must also be more than establishing organisational efficiencies.”

Wimmera Health Care Group, Ballarat Health Services, Stawell Regional Health and Edenhope and District Memorial Hospital leaders announced last week they were proposing a regional amalgamation based on a pressing need to improve health services and outcomes across much of western Victoria.

The voluntary-based move can only proceed with State Government support and evidence of due diligence and community consultation and backing.

Wimmera Southern Mallee Regional Partnership and Wimmera Development Association have launched an online ‘temperature check’ survey to gauge latest community sentiment about the merger proposal.

The Wimmera Southern Mallee Health Services Community Pulse July 2021 survey, featuring a handful of specific quick-response questions about community understanding, is accessible at https://sprw.io/ stt-dd9a91.

Mr Jochinke said it was important for people to clearly see and assess how a merger process might work.

“We would like to see the health services release the business case, implementation strategy and any stra-

tegic data that sits behind the decision, so the community can understand the reasons for it,” he said.

Mr Jochinke said Wimmera Southern Mallee Regional Partnership’s role was to advise the State Government on regional community priorities.

“For the moment, we don’t have any detailed information about why the merger is being proposed. So, it’s very difficult to form a position,” he said.

“Trust is also a big issue here and that involves ensuring a high degree of transparency for the community to believe amalgamation is the best way forward for our region.”

Five myths: Lost and found pets

We understand that pet emergencies can be a frightening and emotional experience.

There’s plenty of misinformation out there – so we’d like to clear up some common misconceptions about how the Community Safety Unit operates.

Here are the top five myths:

MYTH 1: Fines are mandatory if your dog or cat is found wandering If our Community Safety Team members find your pet wandering the streets, they will gladly return it to you.

Only serial escapees or animals that are found not registered and microchipped will be fined.

MYTH 2: It's better to report wandering pets to Facebook without involving Council Wrong. Animal thieves are known to target lost and found groups on social media.

Also, when someone holds a wandering animal at their premises and posts it on Facebook they are actually doing a disservice to the pet and its owners.

In most cases, the owner will be out looking for the animal in public areas and may have already reported it missing to Council.

The best thing to do is contain the animal and notify Council. The ranger can then scan for microchips and return the animal safely and quickly.

MYTH 3: The pound is overrun with neglected animals Not at all. The percentage of dogs and cats that are returned to their owners or re-housed had increased considerably in recent years.

This is possible because the vast majority of animals are now microchipped.

If an animal is kept at the pound, it is usually

There are quite a few positive things happening at Council that I want to mention.

because it is not microchipped and therefore Council is taking longer than usual to find its owners.

MYTH 4: Microchipping and registration are the same thing No, they aren’t. The microchipping of an animal doesn’t mean it is registered.

Animal registration is state legislation, not a law created by Council. It is no different than a car registration in the fact that it is up to the owner to ensure the renewal is paid every 12 months.

Owners of domestic animals found to be unregistered can be fined $330 per animal.

Likewise, it is an offence to have an animal in your possession that is not microchipped (Domestic Animals Act). This is separate to animal registration and can incur a separate infringement.

MYTH 5: Community Safety Officers are heavy handed All of our officers are actually animal lovers and they play an active role in making sure that lost dogs and cats make it home safely.

They also work hard to find new homes for dogs and cats that are unregistered or whose owners cannot be found.

We all know the rail corridor is an eyesore and there is a lot of work to be done to get where we want. But these beautification works are a step in the right direction and I am very happy for the people of Horsham North, who, like myself, traverse the area regularly.

The inclusion of money in the budget also shows that constructive feedback from the community really can make a difference when it comes to Council decisions.

Another positive is the amount of feedback Council is receiving about the concept design for the refurbishment of Sawyer Park and City Oval.

More than 60 submissions have been lodged via the HRCC website so far.

There is still time for people to download the concept plans and have their say before feedback closes at 4pm on Friday 23 July.

After that, our Councillor group will consider all of the public opinion that we have received through the feedback forms and decide whether the concept plans should be adopted.

If they are adopted, things would then progress to the detailed design stage.

The former Nexus building in Pynsent Street has undergone renovations and last year was renamed The Station.

But, due to the pandemic, it’s only been recently that young people have been able to get in there and enjoy the refurbishment. Last month The Station welcomed 120 people for retro gaming and hoodie designing events.

I saw firsthand that the young people thoroughly enjoyed the experience and it’s great to see teenagers being able to attend large gatherings again.

Chiefs provide merger assurances I

BY DEAN LAWSON

ncreasing accessibility to medical services, decreasing a need for patients to travel, providing professional development for staff and attracting and retaining specialists are at the core of a regional health-service merger decision.

The leaders of four western Victorian health-service boards, including three operating in the Wimmera, strongly believe all will happen under a new overarching body.

They also listed improving governance and operational efficiencies as other benefits motivating the move.

They announced on Friday a proposal to join Ballarat Health Services, Wimmera Health Care Group, Stawell Regional Health and Edenhope and District Memorial Hospital to create one body.

Board chairs Marie Aitken, Wimmera, Rhian Jones, Stawell, Philip Sabian, Edenhope, and Natalie Reiter, Ballarat, each spoke strongly during a joint online media conference in favour of the move.

They drew a picture of regional health-service opportunity and progress under the scheme, while providing assurances plans would provide far-reaching overall benefits without

changing community connectivity and avoiding ‘net’ job losses.

The group announced it would now send the proposal, as per The Health Act involving voluntary amalgamation rules, to the Department of Health Secretary and ultimately Victorian Health Minister Martin Foley for consideration.

The media conference accompanied a joint statement that outlined how the proposal was designed to ‘deliver better health outcomes for our communities now and into the future’.

The statement showed – “While the department reviews the proposal, all four health services are continuing extensive engagement with staff and the community on top of the community engagement which has already occurred in each local community.

“A new, combined health service would have the scale to shape a better health system for all parts of the Wimmera and Grampians region.

“In the proposed structure, all services will continue to deliver health care to their communities. The proposal would enable the provision of safe, connected and people-centred health care, closer to home. There will be significant opportunities for sharing resources and working together,

creating career pathways while providing more services locally and reducing the need for patients to travel.

“Staff and community engagement across all four communities has helped define clear commitments should the proposal proceed.

“These are that under the new, combined health service each of the four health services will continue to provide public health care for their respective catchment areas; retain hospital names and identities; Edenhope, Stawell, Horsham and Dimboola and Ballarat district patients will continue to access care from their own hospitals; a new management board will have appropriate skills and district representation; there would be no loss of services at any of the services; no job losses; and past and future fundraising would be tied to specific communities and purposes for which they were designed.”

Wimmera chair Marie Aitken said in the statement: “Should approval be given, it will create better services for our patients and career opportunities for staff and support enhanced health and wellbeing for our communities.

“After extensive consultation with the other boards, the community and staff, I am confident about the future of health care for our local area and

the region. The new entity will have the scale to shape a better health system for all parts of the Wimmera and Grampians region, enabling safer, connected and people-centred health care, closer to home.”

She added later, “Despite best efforts in our part of the state, we face much worse health outcomes than many other Victorians. Some cancer rates up to 50 percent higher than other parts of Victoria. Diabetes is 30 percent higher than city counterparts. These are dreadful statistics.

“At WHCG we’ve decided not to stand back and ignore this data, not to keep doing what we’ve always been doing because that isn’t working.

“Through extensive community consultation we’ve learnt our community wants to access more services in their home towns. We know our community is travelling more for medical care and we also know, which is more worrying, that more people opt not to travel because it is just too hard.

“Through consultation we’ve also learnt about the community’s health priorities and these include mental-health and maternity services, chronic-disease management, in-home care, dental, orthopaedic, paediatric, heart-disease and cancer services. These are realistic expecta-

tions for our community to receive these services or most of them close to home.

“Access to specialists and other health-care providers means this has become increasingly challenging. By becoming part of a large entity we will be able to scale up, making a range of specialist appointments available.

“This exciting proposal will also have a knock-on effect, making our beautiful Wimmera a more compelling place to live and raise families.

This change will set up our health service to provide better care, care people will choose ahead of other options because it is so good. And it will be designed by our community, for our community, for the long-term future.”

Mrs Aitken added she was confident a health-service merger would be different to other government agency restructures that in the past led to diminished Wimmera workforces.

“This is a fundamental system rebuild. I reiterate our determination and commitment to make this successful and to be trailblazers for the Victorian rural health sector.”

From page 1 Mr Jochinke said he understood the health services needed to continue staff and community engagement as they prepared to lodge paperwork with the government’s Department of Health.

He said he had written to the chairs of the respective health services requesting merger discussions with Wimmera Southern Mallee Regional Partnerships and local government chief executives and mayors.

“Our region has some of the worst health outcomes in the state and the regional partnership supports any project that might lead to us having the same level of health as metropolitan residents,” he said.

“As a regional partnership we’re not against amalgamation, but we would like to see the wider community being able to access and assess the business case behind the decision.

“What are the local levels of staffing and how will this change and what are existing levels of service delivery and what changes are proposed?

“What is the baseline data we’re trying to change and how will the health groups involved measure performance?

“We need this information to understand what is being proposed so we can have confidence that in five or 10 years our regional health outcomes have improved.”

Mr Jochinke said meaningful community engagement usually produced the best outcomes.

“We want to be confident that improving health outcomes for our region is the focus of this change and we can monitor performance,” he said.

“The community needs to get a good deal from any changes and we need evidence this is understood and supported by sound evidence.

“At the moment, many in the community remain in the dark about why this change is happening.

“As a regional partnership we simply want to be better informed to play our role in advocating on behalf of the community.”

Benjamin joins data roaming push A

BY DYLAN DE JONG

Wimmera development leader has joined a chorus of voices pressuring telco giant Telstra to cut red tape on domesticdata roaming in rural and regional Australia.

Regional Development Australia Grampians chairman Stuart Benjamin has joined Liberal Senator Sarah Henderson in leading a push to overturn a ban on domestic roaming.

Mr Benjamin said a barrier preventing Australian mobile-phone users roaming between signal towers was putting lives at risk, especially during bushfire crises and other natural disasters.

The practice is restricted to foreign mobile-phone users who can jump between Telstra, Optus, Vodafone or other operators’ towers.

Mr Benjamin said he and Minister Henderson wrote to Australian Competition and Consumer Commission, ACCC, and Federal Communications Minister Paul Fletcher to look into the issue.

“Australia being such a large country, it’s insane that every time we fix a black spot, we have to put in three different towers for three different networks,” he said.

“Given that natural disasters are becoming more frequent we think it’s time for the government to step in, regulate and force the change.”

The ACCC has ruled on three occasions in the past not to extend the same rights to domestic users.

However, Mr Benjamin said he had more confidence the regulator would take the request more seriously.

“A lot has changed in the past five years since the ACCC last looked at

this issue – it’s time to have a look at it again,” he said.

“We’re very confident something is going to change.”

Mr Benjamin said a major storm in Victoria’s east last month and bushfires devastating large expanses of East Gippsland region early last year where telecommunications were seriously affected highlighted a need for data roaming changes.

“In the recent storm at Dandenong Ranges, where there were evacuation orders issued by the Vic Emergency app, people weren’t getting notified because they had no connectivity,” he said.

“We’ve trained the population to rely on the emergency app after it was launched three years ago and now we live our lives by it. But it only works if you’ve got data.

“For Telstra to say they aren’t pre-

pared to share their network in an emergency situation is reprehensible.”

Mr Benjamin said injury or deaths on farms in the Wimmera-Mallee could also be prevented with better telecommunication agreements between major providers.

“If your tractor rolled and you’re pinned under it you can ring triple zero, which is open to all users, but you might not be able to call family members who are two kilometres away to come and help you,” he said.

The Federal Government has invested more than $836-million in more than 1200 new base stations across Australia, as part of a Mobile Black Spot Program.

The government announced $34.5million for round 5A of the program late last year and a further $80-million for round six.

Mr Benjamin said despite millions

of dollars of investment in infrastructure across Australia, there were still major mobile-service gaps across rural and regional Victoria.

“Five years ago, we were using 3G. Since then, we’ve had 4G and 5G and we continue to have bad reception,” he said.

He said he believed a cheaper solution for telecommunications companies would be to invest in one tower and open up data roaming opportunities for the rest of the network.

“The reason you have a black spot is because it’s not worth the operator building a tower there,” he said.

“We’re saying if the operator opened the market for all users, where people could use any tower and just pay for the privilege, they’re going to get all of the customers and all of a sudden the business case changes.”

Chaplaincy book fair returns TAKING CHARGE: Horsham Fire Brigade has appointed Marc Ampt as the new captain for the next two years.

Picture: PAUL CARRACHER

Ampt a community leader Community education and camaraderie between teammates are pivotal for Marc Ampt in his new role as Horsham Fire Brigade captain.

Born and raised in Horsham, Mr Ampt, 33, has been helping his community prepare and be safe from fire as part of the Country Fire Authority, CFA, since he was 18.

Mr Ampt said moving into the captaincy position was a long-term goal.

“When I first signed up to CFA as a volunteer, I always thought I would love to be able to lead such an important organisation in the community,” he said “My father was heavily involved in the CFA as well.

“Seeing him when I was

Wednesday, July 14, 2021

only knee high, when he would take me on runs in the fire truck, had a pretty big influence on me wanting to get involved.”

Former captain John St Clair, who led the brigade since 2014, will step into a training role with the CFA. Mr Ampt said Mr St Clair played an instrumental part in preparing him for the leadership position.

“I was his first lieutenant, so I was his next in charge. We had a really strong relationship and that’s what made it really easy to make this transition,” he said.

“It’s also a real privilege to be able to learn so much from our experienced team.

They’re the reason I’ve been

able to step up into this role.”

Mr Ampt said the bond he formed with his team-mates was crucial to how the brigade responded to emergencies.

“You develop some really close relationships with your team members because you’re often going out to calls and events that most people wouldn’t,” he said.

He said there were many aspects to leading a team in the CFA beyond fighting fires.

“It’s not all about jumping in the fire truck and putting out fires,” he said.

“We have a big focus on connecting with our local community and providing education around fire safety.”

More than a year and a half after its previous fundraising event, Horsham College Chaplaincy Committee will host its secondhand book fair on Friday and Saturday.

The committee was forced to postpone its most recent event, planned for May, due to a statewide COVID-19 circuit-breaker lockdown.

Committee chair Yolande Grosser said the group was excited to lock in a new date.

“We’ve picked ourselves up, dusted ourselves off and due to huge community interest, we are back,” she said.

The fair, in Maroske hall from noon to 9pm on Friday and 9am to noon on Saturday, will feature about 10,000 books ‘on every topic under the sun’ for $1 each and 50 cent children’s books and magazines.

Money raised supports the role of chaplain,

part of Horsham College’s wellbeing team, helping students across the school housing more than 1000 teenagers.

“Providing a supportive listening ear to teenagers has never been so important and this fundraising event just has so many positive aspects, I can’t help but be a fan,” Mrs Grosser said.

She said COVID-safe measures, including QR code scanning on entry, hand sanitising stations, adequate ventilation and regular cleaning of high-touch surfaces by a COVID marshall, would ensure visitors felt safe.

“There won’t be catering on site in 2021, but patrons will still be able to access a cuppa to stay hydrated while browsing for treasures,” Mrs Grosser said.

“The chaplaincy committee encourages you to grab your gold coin collection and come along.”

It needs fixing, but how?

I

f there is one great observation emerging from debate surrounding a merger between western Victorian health services it is that we have a health system in our part of the world that needs fixing.

The most compelling argument amid the fear, anxiety, uncertainty as well as excitement and enthusiasm, is that something must happen to shore up our public community health and medical expectations – now and into the future.

Debate has centred on a proposal to overcome various tyranny-of-distance shortcomings in the Wimmera by creating a large western Victorian health body.

The idea is that this body would have an in-built formal conduit from the Wimmera to Ballarat, where a large and growing population, by sheer weight of numbers, guarantees service provision and extension into the state’s west.

The trouble is, and many Wimmera people know it through past

you need health-wise makes a lot of sense.

But what would it all really look like on the ground and where would it ultimately lead, especially when looking beyond health services to an overall socio-economic point of view? Health-care groups after all, with their considerable work forces and connective social networks, are major economic drivers in their own right.

We’re confronted with basic different points of view. Would or wouldn’t a merger work in solving health-service shortfalls in the region? And just how would it affect everything else?

Regardless of health-service community-engagement efforts, many in the street remain unconvinced and are unwilling to simply bank on trust.

It is something Wimmera Southern Mallee Regional Partnership chairman David Jochinke has identified.

He wants greater access to the finer details of the merger, such as

experience, that there can be a significant difference between what’s good in theory and what happens in reality – especially when politics hover menacingly in the background.

Arguments and assurances put forward by the leaders of the four respective health-service boards involved in the merger are compelling.

But so too are positions of people worried that a merger involving Ballarat would represent more of an erosion than a building of regional growth potential.

Depending on perspectives, much of the merger idea theoretically makes sense. Formally strengthening services through a collective to ensure the betterment of all, regardless of where you live or what

a business case and processes involved, to inform judgement calls.

People can also provide an update on their basic thoughts through a snap ‘temperature check’ survey – see page 1.

Ultimately, we in the Wimmera should never have been in a situation where some of us have felt a serious need to tap into Ballarat for help.

The whole issue is smeared with government neglect and the truth is we shouldn’t be surprised we struggle to attract health professionals and specialists to our region.

After all, we can’t even get an appropriate domestic passenger train for most of the region.

Getting the health-provision formula right is critical for everyone living in the Wimmera.

Wimmera Health Care Group board chair Marie Aitken is right in one of her assessments – that figures showing Wimmera people with higher cases of untreated diseases such as cancers and diabetes than other parts of the state are unacceptable.

LETTER TO THE EDITOR

Tick the box exercise

SIR, – Unfortunately it seems that the ‘community consultation’ conducted by Wimmera Health Care Group was just a tick the box exercise as I and many others feared it would be.

Disappointment in the boards and chief executives of our local hospitals is what I and many of our communities are now feeling.

When filling out the survey, not once was I asked, ‘Would you like the WHCG to merge with Ballarat Health Services?’ On the face of it, the whole consultation was a charade to make sure they had met the requirements of the minister.

There are many questions the local hospital boards and chief executives need to answer... why not merge locally between Horsham, Edenhope and Stawell? Why is this the first option? Why not utilise

shared services at a greater level?

Wimmera communities are aware that running hospitals in regional areas is difficult. With nursing and doctor shortages, keeping beds always open is an issue for CEOs and clinical services directors, I can’t for the life of me see how merging with Ballarat will help with these issues.

To me there is only one answer why this is all came about so quickly – external influence. It is time the hospitals come clean about what pressures they are getting from the State Government to merge. What has Ballarat Health Services been promised by bringing these regional hospitals on board?

I fear that 15 years after the merger, we will have Ballarat and Horsham hospitals, and the others will become clinics and aged-care homes.

Entrepreneurs show growth Wimmera Southern Mallee entrepreneurs have advanced their business knowledge through a 12-week program.

Wimmera Development Association and Food Innovation Australia-led ‘Seeds of Growth’ program participants now hope to take the new skills and connections into the marketplace.

The online program, which started in February, aimed to support existing or budding food producers to commercialise new revenue streams and adopt new technology.

Wimmera Development Association project manager Vernetta Taylor said host organisations hoped the program would be the start of an annual opportunity for food producers across the region.

“WDA recognised the potential to develop and enhance our existing food production industry by supporting our local entrepreneurs to build capacity, create connections and to develop sustainable operations,” she said.

“Participants of the program were identified through an initial workshop in October 2020. It was open to any individual or business wanting to explore how they might be able upscale their existing business or to get their business idea off the ground.”

Innovation agency Beanstalk Ag provided the program. Participation fees were subsidised through Food Innovation Australia, Wimmera Development Association and Wimmera and southern Mallee municipal councils.

Mrs Taylor said processing food in the region was a great opportunity for the Wimmera and southern Mallee.

“Our region has a long and proud history in agriculture and while we grow a lot of produce, we allow other regions to process the product and gain most of the value,” she said.

“Building and supporting emerging food business in the region is an important part of ensuring we can allow our region to grow, have great job opportunities for our families and harness our entrepreneurial spirit.

“We also want to highlight opportunities and to encourage more food processing in the region, which might entice people to the area, which in turn drives strong economic growth.”

Shawna Dominelli of Grampians Ale Works, Anita Evans of Five Ducks Farm and Richard Inglis of RichMarket Garden will go on to participate in the next phase of the program – ‘Actioning Innovation’ including three months of high-level and bespoke support.

All participants will mark the end of the program with a regional tour, presentation and dinner in Horsham today.

Horsham’s most experienced team offers hands-on therapy services with results, all in the one place!

That’s right, physio and podiatry, all right here!

Northern Grampians Shire Council, in partnership with GWMWater, has completed the project at Goldfields Reservoir.

The project will involve the topping up of the reservoir with recycled water during winter.

The Greening St Arnaud project started in September 2020 and is funded through an Integrated Water Management – Resilient and Liveable Cities and Towns Program, a Department of Environment, Land, Water and Planning program.

The project involves expanding a recycled-water watering program from Lord Nelson Park and St Arnaud Lawn Cemetery, where it has occurred for many years, to other green spaces.

Goldfields Reservoir in Lock Road for-

merly provided the town’s water supply and a was popular recreation lake.

The council reinstated it as a councilowned water storage facility to store harvested stormwater.

Up to 25 megalitres of recycled water a year from GWMWater’s wastewater treatment plant will top up the reservoir from May through to September.

The recycled water irrigating St Arnaud’s public green spaces will reduce demand on the drinking supply and reduce council operating costs.

GWMWater has supplied a site management plan for the council, endorsed by Environmental Protection Authority, and regular monitoring of the site to ensure the recycled-water management meets EPA guidelines.

Northern Grampians mayor Murray Emerson said the benefits of the project would

be appreciated by residents and visitors alike for years to come.

“Our parks and gardens staff have a lot more options with their annual plantings and watering plans for our recreation areas and parks and this will greatly improve the tourist appeal and liveability for our townspeople,” he said.

“The council now has the capacity to water our parks and gardens throughout the summer regardless of restrictions. What a great win for the township.”

GWMWater managing director Mark Williams commended the council on its approach to securing a sustainable and secure water supply for green areas in St Arnaud.

“Recycled water has a lot of potential and provides an important resource for the Grampians, Wimmera and Mallee regions as an alternative water supply,” he said.

SEEKING TREASURE: Stawell families came together for some fun activities hosted by Stawell Uniting Church during the school holidays. Church member Jane Delley said games, activities, stories and songs were the focus of Stawell Seekers events. “Seekers met on both Tuesdays in the school holidays and it was great to see so many people gathered,” she said. The event attracted youth from across Horsham and Stawell districts. Families also spent time creating works for an outdoor art space using symbols of flames and people under the theme ‘Celebrating Pentecost’.

The activities were all part of the church’s family holiday program. Bodie, left, and Lillie Taylor took part in the activities.

Parma Night Tuesday

Organisers behind a pop-culture event in Stawell aimed at engaging young people are keen to see it return next year.

Video-game experiences, spray painting, face-painting and cosplay were main features of an all-day ‘Arcad-i-con’ event at Stawell Entertainment Centre during the school holidays.

Youth group secretary and event organiser Taia Hayter said being able to bring Wimmera youth with alternative interests together was a key driving force behind the event.

“This was about bringing a more acces-

sible pop-culture event to Stawell because things like Comic-Con can be really expensive, especially to regional kids,” she said.

“Bringing anything that can be similar, where kids can cosplay, play video games and interact with people who have similar interests is really beneficial.”

Ms Hayter said the event provided a space where people aged 12 to 25 years could interact, particularly after COVID-19 lockdowns.

“It’s so important for young people to be able to leave their house, interact with

people their age, be able to dress up, be able to hang out with friends and eat food and relax,” she said.

Ms Hayter said she hoped the success of the first trial would allow the youth group to run the event annually.

“There’s a lot of work in putting this together, but I’m really hoping it could be a pretty big event,” she said.

“I think it has a lot of potential to gain a lot of traction.”

Cultural dance a hit Contemporary indigenous dancing opportunities for First Nations children are proving to be a hit in the Wimmera, with participation numbers growing in a Dimboola program.

Melbourne contemporary dance company Chunky Move hosted a second workshop series at Dimboola VRI Hall last week as part of annual NAIDOC week celebrations.

A $10,000 grant from VicHealth enabled Dimboola’s First Languages and Arts Training Indigenous Corporation to partner with the dance company to run the program.

VFF: Tardiness is unacceptable W

BY DEAN LAWSON

immera farmers believe a ‘tardy’ State Government approach to supplying land valuations for municipal rates analysis is ‘seriously’ hindering a scrutinisation process.

Victorian Farmers Federation Wimmera branch president Graeme Maher said the state was giving councils and their communities too little time to absorb and work with valuations within timelines.

“The State Government took the valuation process and associated costs from local councils but it is getting later and later in supplying these valuations needed for budgeting,” he said.

“This puts everyone under pressure and there is ultimately less time for adequate public consultation and scrutiny.

“If valuations supposed to be in for the first week of May come in the last week of May, that puts everyone behind and we’re left with a very short length of time to get an appropriate level of community consultation.

“The State Government is getting tardier and tardier and it must make drawing up a council budget near on impossible.”

Mr Maher was commenting after a branch meeting at Warracknabeal where discussion centred on latest municipal rate charges across the region as well as other issues.

He said Horsham Rural City Council’s rates strategy probably generated the most anxiety among members.

“Northern Grampians and Yarriambiack shires also had rates increases but members acknowledged what they believed was a sense of understanding,” Mr Maher said.

“What’s frustrating is that rate increases are seemingly often caused by things out of farmers’ control.

“Horsham district farmers are particularly angry, paying for a 10 percent rates increase.

“They are angry with the rating system, believe it is flawed and see the Horsham council divided on the issue.

“I’m at a loss as to where it might end and what will happen down the track is what further worries me. What will the valuations show next year? The same scenario will emerge again, and we’ll be fighting this fight again. We must work with all stakeholders to come up with a better system.”

Mr Maher said the State Government needed to take more responsibility in shaping the rates system.

“People on the ground are victims for something that starts well above their heads,” he said.

“The first step needed is for the government to get its house in order to allow greater time for public scrutiny of budget planning and processes.

“To ask councils to prepare budgets based on valuations that might come in a week before budgets are due for example, is not only unrealistic but irresponsible. It curtails adequate discussion and process.

“It’s okay to argue about or advocate for something but not when the horse has already bolted.

It stems from a high degree of tardiness operating from above.”

pation had increased since the program launched in the Wimmera earlier this year.

“We had 20 or 30 in the first school holidays and now we’ve got 38,” she said.

“With consultation with Wotjobaluk elders, we are teaching the kids contemporary indigenous, lyrical-fusion dance.

“The kids are really loving it and are full of energy.”

Dance co-ordinators describe the style as ‘future historic’, dissolving the past to remix the present.

The program ran for three days during NAIDOC Week, coinciding with the school holiday period.

Inaugural art prize open Halls Gap-based Wildlife Art Museum of Australia has launched the inaugural WAMA Art Prize, with $25,000 up for grabs for excellence in nature-inspired art.

The award, for art created with or on paper, will become a biennial event and feature an online exhibition of finalists.

The exhibition will present a diverse range of paper works and techniques, including drawing, painting, photography and sculpture.

The museum’s art advisory council chair Jacqueline Healy said the prize invited a multi-disciplinary range of nature inspired Australian artists, to celebrate their connectivity with nature and ‘raise awareness of the importance of conserving our precious and unique Australian environment’.

“We envisage the WAMA Art Prize will attract a broad spectrum of artists who are passionately engaged with the theme of ‘Where Art Meets Nature’ and this will attract great interest from the wider Australian community,” she said.

“The Archibald Prize is a wonderful example of an exhibition having a significant impact on generating broad community interest in portraiture.

“The award will provide the opportunity for us to explore, through art, our relationship with the environment through the artist’s perspective, who embrace the environment in their work.”

The artworks will be judged by a ‘strong and dynamic judging panel’ including Australian Print Workshop director Anne Virgo, art historian and art critic Robert Nelson, Contemporary Art Gallery director Suzanne Davies and Dr Healy.

People can enter WAMA Art Prize online at wama.net.au by August 18.

Judges will announce the major acquisitive award of $15,000 and Awards of Excellence on September 18, to coincide with an online exhibition of finalists.

Included within the exhibition is a People’s Choice Award, chosen via public vote, with the winner announced on October 24.

The pair will play at a Thursday night dinner show on July 22 and a Friday morning melodies show the next day.

In February, The Austins and Robyn Gleeson played to a 78-person crowd under COVID-19 restrictions and shows planned from March to June were cancelled.

Association chairman Max Wright said it was terrific that COVID-19 numbers in Victoria had improved considerably, allowing the return of country music to Horsham RSL. He said attendance numbers remained restricted to 110.

Tickets for the dinner and show, including a two-course meal, cost $35.

The morning melodies, including morning tea, costs $15. Tickets are on sale at Horsham RSL by calling 5382 5912.

Clinic welcomes Pfizer vaccine

BY SARAH MATTHEWS

W

immera Vaccination Clinic leaders have welcomed the arrival of the Pfizer COVID-19 vaccine after a lengthy wait and encouraged eligible residents to book appointments.

People aged 40 and older are eligible to receive a COVID-19 vaccine, with the government recommending the Pfizer vaccine for people younger than 60.

Lister House Clinic staff run the Federal Government-funded vaccination centre out of Up Tempo café in Horsham. Until this week, the clinic only had access to the AstraZeneca vaccine, now recommended for people aged 60 and older.

Clinic chief executive Amanda Wilson said she was excited to receive Pfizer doses, which the clinic started administering on Monday.

“We’ve gone a bit slower this week – we’ve got more doses than we have bookings at the moment, but that’s because we’ve got a few teething things, to make sure we’re doing it correctly,” she said.

“There’s a lot of paperwork involved.

As soon as we get that sorted we’ll be opening up more appointments than we’ve already got, so keep looking out for those.”

Mrs Wilson said the clinic had administered 6500 vaccines in the past three months.

“That’s significant numbers for the area,” she said.

“We’re also happy there’s people coming from outside the area to get vaccinated as well.

“The other thing people don’t realise is, to get vaccinated in other towns the waitlist is massive. To have such a short waitlist here and have the ability to come in and see – and probably not wait very long to get a vaccine – is very lucky.

“I’ve got relatives all over the state who are on waiting lists and haven’t heard for months and we’ve got people here who have had their second doses already.

“It’s really exciting to know we’re ahead of most other towns. So don’t miss the opportunity to get sorted.”

Horsham’s Liesl Hallam was among residents to take advantage of the arrival of the Pfizer vaccine at Up Tempo.

“I’m really excited because I couldn’t

have the AstraZeneca – it didn’t suit me – so I’m really happy to have the Pfizer and have it early,” she said.

“I was happy to have it because I think it will open up a lot more freedom.

“I’ll get the next one three weeks today, at the same time. I booked them on the same day so I knew they would be in the right time frame.”

COVID vaccines are free and people can book appointments for both Pfizer and AstraZeneca versions online at hotdoc.com.au, by searching Wimmera Vaccination Clinic.

Mrs Wilson said people who were unable to book online could call 0458 969 778 for an appointment.

She recommended people book appointments for both doses, three weeks apart for Pfizer and 12 weeks apart for AstraZeneca.

People can visit website health.gov.au to determine their eligibility or for more information about preferred vaccines.

Wimmera Health Care Group started administering Pfizer vaccine last month but is now only taking appointments for second doses until it receives an additional supply.

COMMUNITY ROLL-OUT: Horsham’s Liesl Hallam received her first of two Pfizer COVID-19 vaccines at Wimmera Vaccination Clinic on Monday. Clinic manager and Lister House chief executive Amanda Wilson administered the jab.

‘A Splash of Circus’ awaits Circus tricks and physical creative expression are major features of a series of workshops kicking off in the Wimmera.

Arapiles Community Theatre Natimuk will use a $10,000 VicHealth grant to offer a series of circus workshops for young people in the town.

Wobbly Spoon performers No Mi and Dawa Che will lead the program ‘A Splash of Circus’ starting tomorrow at Soldiers Memorial Hall.

Theatre general co-manager Hannah French said the workshops expanded on a program that concluded in March 2021.

“That program was a really lovely opportunity for people to come together after the craziness that was 2020 during the COVID-19 pandemic,” she said.

it would be lovely to do it again.” The National Institute of Circus Arts-trained performers moved to Natimuk after spending four years in China.

Ms French said the pair was well-known for amazing physical performances.

“No Mi is a whizz at hula-hooping and Dawa is an amazing juggler,” she said.

Wobbly Spoon will offer the workshop until late October and will develop a performance for the Nati Frinj Biennale.

Ms French said there were still places available for people aged eight to 18 to join the program.

Jannik playing for gold

BY SAXON SOUNNESS on work experience

W

immera dual Paralympian Jannik Blair has described the opportunity to ‘right the wrongs’ of the past and win a gold medal as the prime motivation for his team at the approaching Tokyo Paralympics.

Horsham’s Blair, a wheelchair basketballer with the Australian Rollers, won selection in the squad for Tokyo and will now represent his country at the games for the third time in his career.

With less than two months to the Paralympics opening ceremony, Blair is eager to get another chance to prove himself and bring home gold for the first time.

Previously, Blair and his teammates shared in a silver medal at London 2012 games, missing out on gold with a loss to Canada in the final.

The Rollers then suffered a shock sixth-place finish in the 2016 Rio games, which left the Wimmera export ‘gutted’ and generated high levels of pressure within the national squad to perform well at Tokyo.

“We got so close in 2012. If we play that game back 10 times, we win most of them,” he said.

“Looking back, a silver medal is a great achievement. But not getting gold motivates the group to hopefully right the wrongs.

“We have placed high levels of internal pressure on ourselves

“All of it is healthy pressure that as professional athletes helps motivate you to be the best.”

With the Tokyo Paralympics starting on August 24, Blair has been working hard to ensure he is 100 percent ready to be at his best.

“The group has been at the Australian Institute of Sport in Canberra doing two sessions of two hours on the court and including three to four hours of gym workouts,” he said.

“Working on technique, fitness

and skills has been a focus and not forgetting a rest day.”

Blair has competed in Spain during the past few seasons, rating his experiences as ideal preparation for intense competition at the Paralympics.

“Europe is where the best players in the world play and has the best leagues. It exposes you to the highest-level competition on a day-to-day basis,” he said.

“This allows players to be ready for a situation like the Paralympics.”

MAJOR MILESTONE: Ian Stansfield, at 77 years young, completed his 350th parkrun on Saturday morning, reaching his milestone on the Wimmera River track. He completed his first fivekilometre parkrun at Heaton Park in the United Kingdom 11 years ago, in a time of 31 minutes and 10 seconds. Since then, he has gone on to complete parkruns at 21 locations, including 127 runs at Burnley in the UK, 98 at Mt Gambier, 38 at Heaton Park, 32 at Wimmera River in Horsham and 15 at Hamilton. Wimmera River parkrun event co-director Jackie Exell congratulated Mr Stansfield on his achievement. “He crossed the finish line into a guard of honour, with some of the runners kind enough to stick around on what was a very frosty morning here in Horsham,” she said.

“Ian is an inspiration to young and old and we’ve loved having him join us here at the Wimmera River parkrun.”

wheelchair might seem a very different sport to the original game, Blair pointed out that rules were relatively similar and people would gain a better understanding by watching the sport more.

“All the rules stay the same except there is no double dribble,” he said.

“The main thing viewers might struggle to get their head around is the foul calls, because when in a wheelchair contact is much more obvious. The principles stay the same in that the person that gets to the space first will get foul calls.”

Arkona to join Silo Art Trail Arkona silo will become the second Hindmarsh Shire asset to join the Silo Art Trail.

In December 2020, the State Government announced $4.9-million to implement the first round of priority projects from a silo-art extension project – priority investments overview report developed for Regional Development Victoria.

Hindmarsh Shire Council won a $120,000 slice of the package for a new Silo Art Trail project at Dimboola or Arkona, 10 kilometres north of Dimboola.

Mayor Ron Ismay said Arkona would join the completed Albacutya silo on a touring route linking the northern end of the trail in Yarriambiack through to West Wimmera sites at Kaniva and Goroke.

He said the tourism link was highlighted in Wimmera Mallee Tourism’s Silo Art Trail Stage Two strategy, developed in co-operation with the Yarriambiack council in 2018 to plan the trail’s expansion across the region.

Cr Ismay said the touring route would leverage the Silo Art Trail’s popularity, increasing visitation and associated expenditure to Rainbow, Jeparit, Dimboola and Nhill.

He said the silo-art extension report originally listed Dimboola as the next site, after receiving in-principle support from Dimboola silo owners in 2018.

He said the owners had since denied permission to add the silo to the art trail because it was in the process of being sold.

Since then, the council has received permission from the Arkona silo owners to use their asset.

“Council is excited to see the continuation of the Silo Art Trail through our shire,” Cr Ismay said.

“The Silo Art Trail continues to be an iconic attraction to our region and has demonstrated significant economic benefits to regional communities.

“The Arkona site will solidify the touring link from Rainbow through Jeparit to Dimboola and will bring significant visitation to those towns and through to Nhill.”

People can call the council’s tourism and economic development officer Jeff Woodward on 5391 4444 or email jwoodward@hindmarsh.vic.gov.au for more information about the project.

Geoff, Gary awarded for service

R

otary Club of Horsham East’s changeover dinner provided many surprises, especially for long-serving members Geoff Eagle and Gary Green.

Outgoing president Zane Bell presented the pair with Paul Harris Fellow sapphire pins.

Both men have been club members for more than 20 years and won recognition for outstanding service through the many avenues of Rotary.

Mr Bell said the club first recognised the members as Paul Harris Fellows ‘some years ago’ and after continued outstanding service, they joined other Rotarians with sapphire pins, Lyall Wheaton and Steve Sostheim.

The club also celebrated Bruce Johansen, who received a certificate from District Governor Philip Beasley, marking 50 years of membership to the day.

Mr Bell presented Mr Johansen with an inscribed mantel clock in recognition of the award.

Mr Johansen is the only member to receive the milestone accolade in the club’s 50-year history.

The club’s major raffle was also drawn at the dinner, raising more

than $3600 towards a public sculpture commemorating the club’s 50th year and repairs to the emergency digital clock constructed for the club’s 40th anniversary.

Edna Boehm won first prize, a helicopter flight to a Wimmera winery, donated by club members.

Tim Hewitt won a BAA 3400 voucher, which he donated back to the club to help it raise more money.

Mr Bell reflected on his year as president, which he said presented many challenges.

“COVID-19 certainly changed the way we have operated,” he said.

“We were able to meet the challenges and adapt to a new way of keeping our communication channels open.

“I must extend my special thanks to Jim Delahunty for forwarding information to members through the bulletin and to Gary Green for the many hours spent setting up our club for Zoom meetings and helping members to link up.”

Mr Bell said the club had 14 weekly Zoom meetings in a row and engaged some ‘excellent speakers’.

“We had more than 70 Rotarians from six different clubs linking up to

John Millington spoke about Nhill’s Karen community and anti-domestic-violence advocate Simone O’Brien spoke about the ‘sayNo2familyviolence’ program, introduced to the club by past president Steve Holmes.

“We even managed to have two quiz nights and arrange for some social

weekly Zoom catch-ups,” Mr Bell said.

“Despite not being able to convene the usual annual fundraisers, the club was still in a position to donate more than $17,000 to various groups and charities.”

Mr Bell said highlights of the year included the launch of the Wimmera ROMP – Rotary Outreach Myeloma Program – in conjunction with Rota-

ry clubs from Camberwell, Horsham, Warracknabeal and Nhill.

“The program sustains a myeloma support group for people living with myeloma and now in the Wimmera,” he said.

Mr Bell said the clubs were represented at a special evening on May 12 to present Wimmera Cancer Centre with a Paul Harris Fellowship.

He said another highlight was hosting a movie night for Polio Plus alongside Wimmera Health Care Group Foundation’s Friends of the Foundation and Rotary Club of Horsham.

“The evening was highly successful, rasing $2437 and with the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation providing a subsidy, the accumulated amount was $7311,” he said.

“The members enjoyed the evening and working in partnership with other community groups raising awareness for those in need, both locally and internationally.”

Former Horsham Rural City Council mayor and long-serving councillor Pam Clarke was formally inducted as president for 2021-2022.

Migrants key to COVID-19 labour shortage VACCINATIONS

A

BY DYLAN DE JONG

rarat leaders will work with one of Victoria’s largest community education providers to train and shift migrant families to the rural city to solve a major labour shortage.

Melbourne’s Wyndham Community Education Centre, which supports youth, refugee and other emerging communities into the workforce, will work with Ararat Rural City Council for a $650,000 regional workforce pilot.

The pilot ties into a $5-million State Government program to attract workers to the regions and solve a major housing crisis across rural and regional Victorian communities.

Ararat chief executive Tim Harrison said the council would work with the centre to engage workers to provide pre-employment education and training relevant to the needs of industry in Ararat.

“We’ve got some new arrival migrant families in Werribee who might be looking to relocate to other parts of regional Australia and we want to have a conversation with them about Ararat being that destination,” he said.

“Ararat has an unusual problem where we have a lot of jobs that need to be filled.

“We’ve got AME Systems, AF Gasons, the abattoir, our tourism and hospitality sectors and agriculture sector desperately looking for workers.”

Dr Harrison said he hoped to see migrant families moving to Ararat within the next six to 12 months.

The pilot program will also aim to solve a major housing crisis in Ararat district to provide new migrant families a place to live. It will include a $950,000 investment in Ararat East Development Zone to prepare the site.

Dr Harrison said the project would create homes for an additional 317 people and provide 134 full-time jobs during construction.

“That investment, plus an additional $300,000

from council, will go towards trunk infrastructure to develop the Ararat East Development Zone so we can grow our residential housing in that space,” he said “As part of that, we will be extending McLellen Street so there’s a direct route through the development area from Ararat, which doesn’t require travel on the Western Highway.

“There’s capacity for residential and commercial opportunities in that space as well that we need to open up through some additional planning moving forward.

“We’ve also got the Aradale Mental Hospital site adjacent to that site – with proper planning in place, we could potentially yield other residential and commercial opportunities as well.”

Dr Harrison said strong industry growth was increasing demand for workers in Ararat, but limited availability of affordable housing was affecting the ability for industry to attract workers.

“The multipliers on this project will be at least 10-fold,” he said.

“The bottom line is if we don’t do these things in terms of attracting worker population to Ararat and building capacity for worker housing, we’ll have a situation where we can’t grow.”

Dr Harrison said the pilot program could set a regional template for other Wimmera municipalities to solve major labour and housing issues.

“There will be a range of learnings that will come out of these programs that we can share with our shire councils around the region,” he said.

“We’ll be working with Northern Grampians Shire Council in the latter part of the program with Wyndham Community Education Centre moving forward.”

The pilot program is also supporting the project through a $280,000 investment to enable the council to expand on its Opportunities Pyrenees, Ararat and Northern Grampians, OPAN, project.

The three-year project aims to address the existing and future shortage of skilled and unskilled workers across the three municipalities.

Taylor said community engagement was a key focus of a Coles Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander plan.

“NAIDOC Week provides us with a great opportunity to engage with and develop deeper connections and relationships with the local community, while supporting two fantastic Aboriginal organisations,” he said.

Goolum Goolum Aboriginal Co-operative chairman John Gorton said the organisation was pleased to partner with Coles in a social-inclusion activity.

“Goolum Goolum is very grateful for the $2000 donation and has welcomed this ongoing support, which not only provides our community with much-needed resources but also demonstrates Coles’ outstanding commitment to the local community,” he said.

Earlier this year, as part of a major store overhaul, Coles Horsham unveiled six pieces of indigenous artwork and hired 11 new indigenous team members.

Coles chips in for NAIDOC Week Coles supermarket has been a part of NAIDOC Week celebrations in Horsham, providing $4000 to Wimmera Aboriginal organisations.

Coles donated $2000 to both Goolum Goolum Aboriginal Co-operative and Barengi Gadjin Land Council as part of a community Heal Country event.

The money will go towards community health projects and food security.

The land council represents Wotjobaluk, Jaadwa, Jadawadjali, Wergaia and Jupagulk peoples, recognised in a 2005 Native Title Consent Determination – the first in south-eastern Australia.

The co-operative provides support for the physical, social, emotional, cultural and spiritual needs of Wimmera Aboriginal people.

The event at Horsham’s Weir Park included a walk, run, cycle, scoot and skate challenge through the park.

Coles had a marquee and provided free water and fruit to challenge participants and hosted a variety of children’s activities.

Cleaner, greener for land council

BY DYLAN DE JONG

arengi Gadjin Land Council will use a $100,000 State Government grant to install solar panels and develop a renewable-energy plan to help fuel a clean-energy-driven economic recovery.

The land council was among eight Registered Aboriginal Parties across Victoria to share in a $1.1-million Traditional Owner Renewable Energy Program.

The council plans to install solar power at its six land title holdings, develop feasibility studies and undertake business cases for future community-owned renewable-energy generation.

Council acting chief executive Tim McCartney said exploring possibilities with green power would link into western Victoria’s transformation to a greener future, with many renewable-energy projects emerging in the region.

“We know our country is already being used for renewable-energy projects, we want to know what that means for us as Wotjobaluk nations,” he said.

“We will have a strategy to engage with our community and have conversations around what our aspirations are with renewable energy. It’s really about assessing the feasibility of renewable energy on our current proprieties, but also the development of renewable energy on any new land acquisition we might have.”

Mr McCartney said the State Government money would allow the land council to expand on its plans for a greener future, having already explored installing solar power at its Dalki Garringa Native Nursery project at Wail west of Horsham.

“BGLC has done a carbon-farming feasibili-

ty report and this is building on that,” he said.

“We also have six title properties where we can have initial assessments, and if we’re acquiring new land, renewable energy will be part of that decision-making going forward.

“With everything we do we want to leave as little impact on the environment as possible.”

Mr McCartney said renewable-energy generation and storage would reduce greenhouse gas emissions and deliver social and economic benefits for Traditional Owners and the broader community.

“This is just an extra part of an industry that’s being developed on our country that we need to have an understanding of,” he said.

“This project will be so important for our community members, the land council and Traditional Owners living on and off country.”

Mr McCartney said sustainability was a key value of the land council and the government program would empower Traditional Owners to determine how they wanted to be part of Victoria’s renewable-energy transition.

“Core to what we do is to have a sustainable approach in the business that we do,” he said.

“We’re always looking at how we can leave as little impact on the environment as possible. That’s fundamental to us as Aboriginal people to protect the rights and interests of our community members.”

Aboriginal Affairs minister Gabrielle Williams said the program aimed to empower Traditional Owner Corporations to determine how they wanted to be part of Victoria’s renewable-energy boom.

“The program allows Aboriginal communities to harness renewable energy, save money on bills and help meet the government’s goal of halving the state’s emissions by 2030,” she said.

IN AWE: Ararat Gallery TAMA visual arts co-ordinator Katy Mitchell admires the work of Pitjantjatjara woman and weaver Tjunkaya Tapaya.

First Nations focus at Ararat Ararat Gallery TAMA is continuing to focus on First Nations artwork as part of a national touring exhibition beyond NAIDOC Week.

The ‘Obsessed: Compelled to make, ADC on Tour’ exhibition presents the work of 14 Australian artists, delving beyond the finished object into the fundamental conceptual framework of their creations.

Gallery visual arts co-ordinator Katy Mitchell said the exhibition, which featured the work of two Traditional Owners, provided a unique opportunity to celebrate First Nations culture during and beyond NAIDOC Week.

“Public galleries provide a place for the community to experience arts and culture,” she said “The gallery provides that experience for the community and one of our roles as a public gallery is to share these rich his-

tories and stories. Learning and listening to stories of First Nations artists can really help us move towards reconciliation.”

The exhibition includes the work of Waradgerie woman Lorraine Connelly-Northey, a mixed media artist, with her piece Kooliman, Coolamon, – an Aboriginal Australian Bush Bowl.

Pitjantjatjara woman and weaver Tjunkaya Tapaya has her self-portrait titled Ngayulu Minyma Tjanpinya, I am a Tjanpi Woman included in the exhibition.

Ararat mayor Jo Armstrong said the council and gallery would continue to focus on celebrating the work of First Nations people.

“For our first Australians, the land and connection to country has been forged over tens of thousands of years,” she said.

“By beginning the process of genuine reconciliation and forg-

ing new partnerships, we are all learning to look deeper and understand the stories that have been passed down for centuries.

“We are fortunate to have vast riches of local culture.

“Gariwerd features the most pristine rock-art sites in Victoria. Lake Bolac is host to the iconic eel festival and has links to the Budj Bim cultural landscape.

“We are the home of Australian Rules Football, which was inspired by the traditional Marngrook game here in Moyston.”

As part NAIDOC Week celebrations, Lake Bolac Information Centre also displayed paintings of Keerray Woorroong and Yorta Yorta woman Sherry Johnstone, while Ararat Library showcased books by First Nations authors.

The TAMA exhibition will be on display until Sunday.

Report shows parents paying double A

BY DYLAN DE JONG

Wimmera research project has identified parents in rural areas are paying twice as much for childcare than people living in urban areas.

Federation University Australia researchers found Wimmera parents were struggling to find childcare services, leading to residents moving to bigger cities or sacrificing their careers to be stay-at-home parents.

The study, across Victoria’s Wimmera-southern Mallee, identified issues including staff and service shortages and lack of economic viability to run childcare, which led to difficulties in attracting new operators to the sector.

Wimmera campus-based researcher Cathy Tischler said the study revealed there were no organisations with an obligation to provide childcare services when market failures occurred.

She said this differed from government-funded kindergarten services.

“There is a gap in regulatory support because we are relying on the market to deliver these services,” she said.

“When these services don’t exist, instead of being a community problem, it is left to individual people to find their own solutions.

“This is not an individual problem for people or even an individual problem for councils, but the question should be how can the region actually provide a cohesive response to this?”

The study found a lack of subsidised childcare meant parents were paying double compared with urban areas for childcare because parents were finding their own unregulated solutions.

It identified lack of childcare was also a significant equity issue for both parents, although the study found it was primarily women who put their careers on hold to look after their children in the Wimmera.

Down to cost

Dr Tischler said feedback from the research also indicated providers and potential providers were adamant that starting a childcare service was not cost-effective.

“That sort of view was defeatist in a way, but it was also the view ex-

lenges of rural childcare, as the issues were different.

“Research is not just documenting problems and proposing solutions, but working with communities to find a way through many difficult challenges,” she said.

“The gap between workforce development and community development in urban communities versus rural communities in this space is vast and it is having a significant impact on people’s lives.”

The study was carried out in West Wimmera, Hindmarsh, Yarriambiack and Northern Grampians municipalities.

pressed by women looking for childcare services, who would say, ‘Well, I chose to move out here and maybe it’s not up to me to expect a really good service out here’,” she said.

“There needs to be a push for change. Why can’t we have childcare plugged onto a kindergarten system or an arrangement like that to make it work?

“There are many things we could do if we changed our mindset and saw this is an economic issue, an equity issue and a community development issue.”

Dr Tischler said there was ‘a lot of talk and a lot of noise’ about the provision of urban childcare, but lobby groups needed to understand the chal-

NBN ambassador to meet businesses Ararat Rural City Council has teamed up with Australia’s National Broadband Network, NBN, to run a series of workshops to teach business owners how to enhance digital capabilities.

NBN ambassador Emma Armstrong will join the council each Wednesday during July to provide business owners guidance to maximise their use of the broadband network.

Council chief executive Tim Harrison said the workshops would prove useful for businesses, as Ararat was one of the first areas to become a new business-fibre zone as part of the network.

“Emma can help with getting your business connected to business-grade fibre, offer tips for optimisation and hear from businesses direct,” he said.

“We encourage businesses in Ararat to take advantage of NBN’s high-speed fibre broadband where possible.”

NBN launched the Business Fibre Initiative, a $700-million nationwide investment to support ACCESS IMPROVED: From left, Budja Budja Medical Clinic practice manager Alison Chatfield, East Grampians Health Service dental co-ordinator Kaylene Jackson, senior dental assistant Amy Mantell and Aboriginal health worker trainee and dental liaison Abbie Lovett.

Commitment to oral health A western Victorian hospital will improve access to public dental care for First Nations people after Federal Government changes to health policy.

From the start of this month, East Grampians Health Service in Ararat started providing public dental care, regardless of concession card status, for all Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people.

The changes were a government response to a National Oral Health Plan 201524, which recognised First

Nations people experienced poorer oral-health outcomes than the rest of the Australian population.

The health service’s dental clinic is working with Budja Budja Medical Clinic to provide dental services on a regular basis.

Health service chief executive Andrew Freeman said addressing the financial and geographical barriers in accessing dental care was a key focus of the changes.

“We are striving to improve

Dr. Pauline Walsh

the dental health outcomes for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people in our communities by building relationships and supplying patients with information necessary for them to make informed decisions about their own oral health with confidence,” he said.

“Dental care is also provided at East Grampians Health Service in a culturally responsive and receptive manner.”

Well children are subject to the same forces that adults are, however their bodies can react very differently. An adjustment on a child or infant is very different to adjusting an adult and the amount of force used when adjusting a child or infant is varied depending on the age and development of the child. E.g. The amount of pressure to adjust an infant is the about the same pressure you would gently pressure you would use on your eyeball.

Techniques are very different. A lot more mobilisation techniques in specific directions are used. Neither a child nor an infant can tell you exactly what is going on so specialised assessing techniques are used and as a Chiropractor and a number of years in practice, I did two years extra study to attain my Grad Dip in Chiropactic Pediatric Care to make sure little ones are well cared for.

I clearly remember one first time Mum coming to see me because she was told, that her 3 week old baby didn’t like breast feeding. The first thing I assured her of was that her baby did indeed like and needed to be breast-fed if at all possible, because it gives the baby the best start in life. I assessed the child and observed that he couldn’t turn his neck comfortably to attach and he would arch and pull off in frustration. So, a hungry baby, an anxious Mum and a very upsetting situation for them.

With three adjustments the baby was back to being fully breast-fed and Mum didn’t feel like a failure.

Dr Harrison said as part of the program, NBN planned to create up to 240 Business Fibre Zones across Australia, including 85 in regional towns.

“With Ararat being a Business Fibre Zone, businesses can access symmetrical internet speeds from 10 megabytes per second or up to one gigabyte per second at reduced wholesale pricing of up to 67 percent,” he said.

“This means more businesses can afford business-grade fibre and embrace opportunities for growth and stay competitive in the digital age.

“Access to this technology will improve connectivity to support growth opportunities for industries across tourism, the creative sector, health-care providers and education services.”

People can meet Ms Armstrong at Ararat Library today from 10am to noon. The workshops will also run on July 21 and 28.

Staley: Parks a negative move

M

“If all they are going to do is put a sign on the gate it’s not good enough – that won’t improve environmental outcomes”

ember for Ripon Louise Staley continues to stress her strong opposition to the declaration of new national parks in her electorate.

Ms Staley said the creation of Mount Buangor and Pyrenees national parks, instead of promoting tourism, would have a ‘significant’ negative impact.

She said there would be a flow-on effect that would influence everything from the prosperity of regional motels, hotels and caravan parks to people who collected firewood, enjoyed prospecting or other activities that would be banned under National Park rules.

“This is a State Government decision and it’s been a poor one. They knew it was unpopular, sat on it for 18 months and sneaked it out on the last sitting day before the Victorian Parliament rising for a six-week break,” she said.

“It was cowardly and unsurprisingly people are unhappy. We’re talking about wholesale changes to and removal of many of the lifestyle freedoms people have long enjoyed.”

Ms Staley said the government now needed to take legislation to the Parliamentary upper house where expectations were that it would be passed.

“The government is already not managing parks very well. There are conservation areas in the state that are over-run with feral or pest animals such as deer and pigs and serious weeds,” she said.

Ms Staley said the declaration of the new national parks would now ‘more than ever’ put a spotlight on how the government managed conservation reserves.

Saving animals one book at a time

– Louise Staley

“If all they are going to do is put a sign on the gate it’s not good enough – that won’t improve environmental outcomes,” she said.

“There are some serious negative consequences here and they must be held accountable.”

The State Government announced last month that 65,106 hectares in Victoria’s central west would come under higher levels of environmental protection as national parks. Other reserves would also have protection as either conservation parks or bushland reserves.

A 15,000-hectare Pyrenees National Park will be northwest of Avoca, and a 5282-hectare Mount Buangor National Park will double the size of an existing State Park north of Buangor.

The government has also announced the creation of new conservation parks covering 5246 hectares in areas with a high biodiversity value to protect plants and animals. It will add a further 7560 hectares to expand existing nature and bushland reserves.

Regional parks will expand by 27,735 hectares.

The largest parkland development will involve joining Lerderderg State Park and much of Wombat State Forest to create a new national park covering more than 44,000 hectares between Daylesford and Bacchus Marsh.

Self-proclaimed bookworm Jorja Ramsey is selling books from her personal collection to raise money for a wildlife rescue organisation.

Jorja, 11, spent her school holidays selling books out of her family’s Ararat business, Foragers Cafe, for the cause.

The young wildlife warrior raised more than $230 for World Wildlife Fund Australia’s adopt a koala program.

The program, which involves a monthly donation, aims to protect koalas from deadly disease and habitat destruction and prevent extinction.

Jorja said the impacts of deforestation and natural disasters such as the 2019-20 bushfires that devastated koala populations motivated her to take action.

“It made me feel really sad to know animals were losing their lives,” she said.

“It feels really good to be helping the animals, especially because lots of the reasons they’re endangered is because of people.

“It’s nice to know people will be reading my books and enjoying them, while knowing we’re helping the animals.”

Jorja said while most of the books were from her collection, family members were also donating books to the cause.

“This is the second time I’ve raised money for the cause, donating $254 in 2020,” she said.

The fundraiser enabled Jorja to adopt a koala as part of the World Wildlife Fund Australia program.

Sarah Ramsey said she was extremely proud of her daughter for committing to such a selfless cause.

“Jorja has a big heart and always had big love for animals and wildlife and a passion for environmental change and raising awareness for a better future

for our wildlife,” she said. “I’m super proud of my young wildlife warrior and am always eager to help in her causes.”

Jorja said she hoped to adopt two koalas from money raised throughout the school holidays.

Incoming Toyota outlines equipment, design tweaks for RAV4

Pictured is the brand’s current model

C

ustomers on the long waiting list for a new Toyota RAV4 might be able to switch their order to an upgraded MY22 model, due to enter production in December and arrive in Australian showrooms early next year.

Toyota Australia is yet to reveal images or pricing of the updated medium SUV, but has outlined equipment upgrades, most of which apply to the second-from-top Cruiser variant.

Equipment changes to the RAV4 Cruiser include ventilated front seats,

the addition of eight-way electric adjustment for the front passenger seat and a digital rearview mirror that can display vision from a rear camera.

Illuminated door switches will also be added to the Cruiser, as well as the mid-spec GXL and flagship petrol allwheel-drive-only Edge, the latter also gaining reverse autonomous emergency braking in the update.

Cosmetically, all RAV4 variants will have upgraded LED foglights and most will get new alloy wheel designs.

Hybrids will come with new headlight design that Toyota claims will

‘enhance night-time vision’. An idlestop system will also be introduced to all petrol RAV4s, but the drivetrains will otherwise remain unchanged, though Toyota’s announcement makes no mention of the current GX petrol base model’s manual gearbox option, suggesting it might have been dropped.

The entry-level RAV4 engine is a 127kW-203Nm 2.0-litre naturally aspirated four-cylinder petrol that drives the front wheels through an automatic continuously variable transmission.

Hybrids come in front or all-wheel-

drive flavours respectively producing a combined 160kW and 163kW, distributing drive through what Toyota calls an e-CVT. Exclusive to the top-spec Edge is a 152kW-243Nm 2.5-litre petrol with eight-speed auto and a mechanical all-wheel-drive set-up that has torque vectoring on the rear axle.

Acknowledging long wait times for RAV4 deliveries, Toyota Australia sales, marketing and franchise operations vice president Sean Hanley said the company was encouraging customers to speak with their preferred

Toyota dealer about the upgrade on any orders placed.

“While these updates will not arrive until early next year, Toyota is committed to keeping its customers aware of upcoming improvements,” he said.

“The RAV4’s mix of style and practicality, and in particular, its hybrid powertrain, really resonates with buyers and these upgrades will add to that appeal.”

New interior, more gear for Compass

J

eep Australia has shown off its new Compass, with the compact SUV set to arrive in showrooms in coming weeks with a drastically updated interior, tweaked exterior styling and a heap of new standard safety equipment.

Now starting from $37,950 plus onroad costs for the Launch Edition, the updated range will initially consist of five variants including the limited-run ‘80th Anniversary’ mid-ranger and stretch all the way up to $51,250 for the flagship Trailhawk, which again is the only diesel version.

The other variants are powered by the familiar 2.4-litre Tigershark fourcylinder petrol engine developing an unchanged 129kW of power and 230Nm of torque. This compares with the 2.0-litre turbo-diesel that develops a gruntier 125kW-350Nm. Inside the cabin of Compass is a completely-redesigned interior said to be easier on the eye, more ergonomic to use and more practical, with three times more storage space.

The fresh three-level dash is ruled by the new-generation Uconnect 5 system, accessed via the 10.1-inch touchscreen with multiple user profiles and all of the usual technology highlights like TomTom satellite navigation, wireless Apple CarPlay-Android Auto and voice recognition.

Safety has been stepped up across

WEEKS AWAY: Tweaked looks, heaps more safety and an allnew interior headline Jeep’s Compass makeover, set to arrive in showrooms in coming weeks. the range with all versions scoring traffic-sign recognition, intelligent speed assist, drowsy driver alert and autonomous emergency braking with pedestrian and cyclist detection.

The only front-wheel-drive of the bunch, the Launch Edition, uses a six-speed automatic transmission to harness its power and will check into dealerships priced only $1000 upstream of the outgoing Night Eagle.

Standard equipment on the rangeopener includes LED headlights and foglights, black roof, cloth upholstery, a 7.0-inch TFT display, wireless phone charging, keyless entry with push-button start, rain-sensing wipers, electric park brake, dusk-sensing headlights and automatic high beam in addition to key features outlined.

As for standard safety equipment and driver aids, the base model comes with all the new-age systems mentioned previously as well as adaptive cruise control, blind-spot monitoring, rear cross-path detection, lane-departure warning plus, reversing camera, automatic electronic brake hold and full-speed forward collision warning plus.

Priced $3000 above the Launch Edition is the $43,950 Limited, which not only adds more standard equipment, but all-wheel-drive, three extra transmission ratios and Jeep’s proprietary Selec-Terrain off-road system.

Inside, the extra gear extends to leather upholstery and electric front seat adjustment with memory function for the driver, 40:20:40 split-folding

rear bench, bi-function LED projector headlights, 10.25-inch digital instrument cluster, front parking sensors, park and unpark assist system and a power tailgate with kick function.

Those wanting a sportier disposition can opt for the $46,950 S-Limited, which adds a sports body kit, more aggressively-designed alloy wheels, a black headliner, grey interior accent stitching and a nine-speaker Alpine sound system.

Also based on the Limited, the 80th Anniversary, $47,941, variant is the latest member of the 80th Anniversary portfolio to touch down in Australia, with just 160 units to be offered nationally.

Compared with its donor car, the limited-edition adds unique Crystal

Grey 18-inch alloy wheels, body-coloured fascia, wheel flares, side mouldings and skirts, a dual-pane panoramic roof, premium leather upholstery with light tungsten accent stitching, manually adjusted front seats, heated steering wheel, nine-speaker Alpine sound system, surround-view camera system, black headliner and a Jeep 80th Anniversary instrument panel applique.

Retaining its position at the top of the Compass range, the off-road focused Trailhawk will not arrive until later in the year, priced from $51,250.

Based on the S-Limited, the name of the Trailhawk’s game is adventure and off-road capability, which is why it boasts a 180 Amp alternator, a 4.334 rear axle ratio, two exposed recovery points, four underbody skid plates, Jeep Active Drive Low 4x4 system, a full-size spare wheel, reversible carpet-vinyl cargo mat and 17-inch Falken All-Season tyres.

The Compass variants have slight differences in their appearances but the Trailhawk is unmistakable thanks to its black bonnet decal, red recovery points, unique 17-inch wheels and grey exterior ascents.

Standard features over the S-Limited’s creature comfort list includes red interior stitching, accents, all-season floor mats, leather-trimmed bucket seats and a 360-degree camera.

Introducing the Genesis G80 Sport

G

enesis will be taking its G80 luxury sedan to new sporting heights later in the year when it launches the G80 Sport in the fourth quarter, however pricing and most of the key specification details are still to be confirmed.

will be offered exclusively on the Sport, reportedly inspired by a cliffside on Prince Edward Island, Canada.

Inside the cabin we find a threespoke sports steering wheel and the choice of aluminium, carbon or ‘diamond-patterned hybrid’ weave dash trim. More unique touches and appointments will be revealed closer to the new variant’s launch.

The Genesis G80 Sport delivers the

‘best value to customers who want to enjoy the perfect balance of athletic elegance from the G80 combined with a more dynamic driving experience’.

While it’s hard to ascertain exactly how far up Genesis will turn the sporty wick with the G80 Sport, it’s even harder to pin down a definitive rival for it.

The BMW M550i is massively more powerful and is sure to be more ex-

pensive at $139,900, even in Pure form, while the lesser 530i is almost 100kW down on the force-fed Korean six.

On paper at least, the G80 Sport’s closest rival looks to be the Audi A6 55 TFSI quattro S Line, which retails for $116,000 and packs a 250kW500Nm six-cylinder punch as well as AWD. Chances are though the big German

will still be more than 10 grand more expensive than the G80 while nursing a 29kW-30Nm power handicap.

Genesis has sold 28 G80s so far this year ending June, accounting for 1.7 percent of the $70,000-plus large car segment – well off the pace of the class-leading Mercedes-Benz E-Class with 551 sales, or 33.1 percent.

– Callum Hunter

LMCT: 7944

So little has been revealed about the new variant that nobody truly knows where it will sit in the range, however given rear-wheel-steering will be offered we expect it to slot in at the top of the line-up.

Studying the rest of the Australian Genesis portfolio supports this theory, with the Sport package being available on most variants, however a decked out G70 2.0T with Sport Line package still cannot quite match the dynamic arsenal of the 3.3T Sport.

With this in mind, we expect the G80 Sport to be powered by the same twin-turbocharged 3.5-litre V8 as the current G80 3.5T, which churns out a healthy 279kW-530Nm. All-wheel-drive is also likely, while an eight-speed automatic transmission is all but guaranteed.

To mark it out as the athlete of the range, the G80 Sport will don a sportier body kit than its more elegant stablemates as well as a darker chrome grille, black headlight bezels, ‘dark glossy’ chrome trim accents, unique 20-inch alloys and a new rear diffuser.

Be an encourager!

Al had a hard time in school. He had trouble keeping up and when his teacher called him Addled, his mother withdrew him from school to teach him from home.

His teacher thought he couldn’t learn but his mother believed in him. When he struggled she encouraged him to keep trying. She gave him hope.

Well what happened to Al? When he grew up he became and inventor, his name was Thomas Alva Edison.

Wow! When people have love and encouragement its no telling how far they can go.

The Bible tells us in Proverbs 16:24 “Pleasant words are … healing.”

So how about your works? Do they build up or tear down? How do people feel when they are around you? Do you make them feel small and insignificant, or do they leave feeling uplifted and encouraged.

Become and encourager it will do you good and also those around you.

Hockey intrigue at Kaniva

BY SIMON KING

S

everal intriguing match-ups are on offer when Wimmera Hockey Association action moves to Kaniva on Saturday for the first time this season.

The open competition is headlined by a clash between undefeated Yanac Tigers and second-placed Warrack Hoops. These two teams always put on a skilful and entertaining display of hockey in a rivalry that goes back to the mid-1980s when either side has played in every grand final since.

The Tigers have had the best of their encounters over recent seasons and the last time they met enjoyed a four-goal win. This was one of the most significant margins between two teams better known for putting on a very close game of hockey.

Dimboola Burras and Nhill Rangers go into their match locked together on the ladder with equal points and equal goal difference. A slender margin of just one percent gives the Burras third place and the Rangers fourth.

This evenness will also be displayed on the field, with little separating these two if they can both present their best players.

There will also be considerable interest when the two teams outside the top four clash in the final game of the weekend.

Despite their positions, both Kaniva

Cobras and Horsham Hurricanes have shown enough form so far this season to suggest they can significantly influence the finals.

In the women’s competition, the feature game will involve a meeting between two defeated teams from the previous round.

Kaniva Women hold the higher place on the ladder and should return to the winners list, but Horsham Jets are capable of causing an upset.

In the second women’s game, Nhill Thunderbirds should prove too strong for Dimboola Roos, who are coming off the bye.

In under-16s, Yanac Warriors take on Warrack Revengers and Horsham Bombers will play Kaniva Raiders.

Recent form and ladder positions suggest these games should be clearcut, with the top two teams taking on the bottom two. But both of the lower-ranked teams have players capable of testing the top teams.

Results – Open: Yanac Tigers 1 (goal, S. Alexander; best, T. Alexander, S. Farmers, L. Reichenbach) d Kaniva Cobras 0 (C. Beattie, D. Cole, A. Wallis), Horsham Hurricanes 1 (P. Mackereth; W. Gulline, P. Mackereth, C. Dodson) drew with Nhill Rangers 1 (R. Reichelt; B. Miller, L. Marra, D. Reichelt), Warrack Hoops 1 (R. Bennett; O. Bennett, R. Bennett, S. Schulz) d

A flying start Horsham Racing Pigeon Club, now in its 104th year, has started its 2021 season with races from Hopetoun.

The flight from Hopetoun is 106 kilometres to the shortest lofts located near the northern fringe of Horsham, whereas the ‘back-marker’ loft in Haven district is 115km from the release point at Hopetoun.

Last weekend members entered 698 pigeons.

Race results are based on velocity for the leading pigeon that homes to each member’s loft.

Velocities are calculated to three decimal places in terms of metres flown per minute as opposed to the time taken to return to their home loft.

Results: Hopetoun Two, The McPhee Family, whose winner won by 1.51 minutes after allowing for overfly, based on velocity, averaged 1,051.43 metres a minute 1; Bruce Rentsch 1,032.93mm 2; Paul and Jayden McPhee 1,026.33mm 3.

The winning pigeon flew the race in a time of 1.44.01 hours.

Section two for lofts with larger race teams: Brian Watts, 1.45.53 hours, 1,056.52mm, 23 seconds ahead of John Aisbett, 1,052.69mm 2, Rob Nelson 1,048.29mm 3.

Next weekend’s racing will be from Telopea Downs and Ouyen.

The club has welcomed three new members to the sport in Horsham along with three former members who have had a break from racing their pigeons.

Bondi Lockdown in the spotlight T

BY TONY LOGAN

here’ll be plenty of Wimmera interest in the action at Albion Park on Saturday night with Horsham owned-trained three-yearold colt Bondi Lockdown set to contest the $30,000 South East Derby as a lead-up to the following week’s $100,000 Queensland Derby.

Trainer Aaron Dunn headed north to the Sunshine State early last week and arrived at the Tambourine property of leading trainer Grant Dixon on Wednesday.

“They travelled up good and went straight into the paddock for the night,” Dunn said.

“I gave them a light jog next morning and they have settled in well since.”

Travelling companion Sporty Azz is also among the entries on Saturday night, while the paddock mate for ‘Bondi’, Shady Azz might need a trial under the belt before returning to racing.

Mighty mare

It’s a real thrill to see the famous Maoris Idol colours to the fore at Albion Park with Victorian trotter Pink Galahs successful in both of her heats in the Darrell Alexander series.

The mighty little mare made light of her 20-metre handicap on Saturday night, returning a brilliant mile rate of 2:00.5 from the standing start to take

her record to 29 starts, 15 wins, six minors and $239,594 for her owners Laura Lewis – nee Healy – her father Bryan and husband Caleb.

Pink Galahs takes on the impressive newcomer to the powerful McCarthy team, former New Zealander Humble Lad in Saturday night’s $50,000 final over the staying trip of 2650 metres and then it’s on to the $50,000 mobile start Queensland Trotters Cup on July 24.

Judges placed Paris and her homebred horse Talingka Park Matthias, after reviewing a dressage test video she submitted to a Pony Club International Alliance Virtual Dressage Competition.

Riders from the United Kingdom, Ireland, South Africa, Hong Kong, New Zealand and the USA entered the event. Each country had four riders, making up a team for each level test.

“The other paramount consideration for us was the photo finish image for race number three,” Day said.

“We were unable to obtain a clear photo finish image.”

Driver Michael Bellman aboard Orbie for trainer Shaun Kittel requested a look at the print when the judge first semaphored Still Hungover – Ellen Tormey – as the winner.

After further deliberation a dead heat was declared and Bellman hit the road back home to Ararat a few hours earlier than expected.

Paris said she could watch other competitors’ dressage tests and it was amazing to see the different settings from all over the world.

Wimmera netball shuffle

A

battle for third, fourth and fifth spots on Wimmera netball league’s A Grade ladder is hotting up as teams prepare for round-13 action this weekend.

The two top teams – Southern Mallee Giants and Horsham – are relatively safe. But Dimboola, Warrack Eagles, Stawell, Horsham Saints and Ararat could all mathematically make the five or, along with MinyipMurtoa, have an impact in shaping the finals.

An Ararat side, taking on Dimboola on Saturday, needs to win every match for the rest of the home-andaway season and hope for a few upsets involving teams along the way.

The Rats lost to Horsham 36-64 last week, but the last time the Roos and Rats clashed, Dimboola won by only four goals. Considering both teams have continued to improve it’s hard to pick a winner.

Dimboola is also coming off a 59-35 win over Nhill Dimboola defender Olivia Jorgensen will match the height of Delaney McLoughlin, while Ararat’s experienced Rebecca Skrabl, in working well with Racquel Scott, will have a good tussle with Billie-Jo Barber and Nicole Polycarpou at the other end of the court.

Monique Scott has moved from defence to wing attack for Ararat and is

making it her own and Roos youngsters Steph Glover, Holly Ross, Ruby Redford and Delta Wardle are playing strong games in challenging matches.

Horsham plays Warrack Eagles in another fascinating tussle.

The Eagles, which lost 50-51 in a thriller to Stawell last outing, came away with the points when they last met the Demons.

But Horsham was missing Emma Buwalda on that occasion and this time the Eagles will be without Ashlynn McKenzie, and perhaps Jess Kelly and Megan Werner.

Juniors Grace Manserra and Jemma Thomas are relishing A Grade opportunities for the Demons, which should be too strong this time around with the ability to rotate players if needed.

Emma Koschitzke and Sarah Spicer will need to work their magic for the Eagles.

Nhill plays Horsham Saints in a rematch of a game that the Saints comfortably won back in round four.

But the Saints won’t want to underestimate the Tigers because a loss could have serious ramifications on their finals chances.

Charlotte Foulds and Claudia McRae will need to be on target in goals for Nhill to capitalise on any turnovers, while Ashlee Grace has been the playmaker through the centre for Saints and will at-

tract attention from Jenna Schneider.

Southern Mallee Giants beat MinyipMurtoa 51-30 last game and now meet a Stawell side brimming with confidence.

Stawell showed last round it can finish off tight matches and will need that confidence to upset the Giants.

In their previous encounter Stawell stayed with the Giants until the Giants pulled away in the second half.

The Southern Mallee team has a formidable defence and Stawell goalers Ebony Summers and Zanaiya Bergen will need to fight hard.

The Warriors will also need to limit the damage Jodie Hayes does through the midcourt.

Lisa Fleming, Rachel Wood and Eliza Bennett are combining well in defence for Stawell and will need to work hard to restrict scoring opportunities to Steph Thomson and Zali Brown.

Minyip-Murtoa has a bye.

Results: Dimboola d Nhill 59-35, Horsham d Ararat 64-36, Southern Mallee Giants 51-30, Stawell d Warrack Eagles 52-51.

Ladder: Southern Mallee Giants 44 points, 134.93 percent; Horsham 36, 169.14; Dimboola 32, 103.59; Warrack Eagles 28, 111.59; Stawell 28, 106.67; Horsham Saints 24, 89.78; Ararat 16, 85.92; Minyip-Murtoa 12, 86.85; Nhill 4, 53.48.

Swifts, Natimuk push for finals spot S

BY SARAH MATTHEWS

wifts and Natimuk United will continue to push for a Horsham District A Grade finals berth after playing out a thrilling draw last week.

Swifts enjoyed a narrow lead for much of the game but the Rams refused to give up, overcoming a threegoal deficit to level the scores by the final whistle.

Both sides were missing key players, although Bethany Sudholz won beston-court honours for Natimuk in the absence of Jo Taylor.

Swifts were without Jade Ralph and although team-mate Michaela Armer shot a game-high 29 goals, the team would benefit from the usual partnership against Harrow-Balmoral this week.

The Baggies are holding on to sixth spot, four points clear of the Rams, but are yet to claim a big scalp this season. They might rate their chances against third-placed Southern Roos, who are coming off a 12-goal win over Kalkee, 47-35.

The Roos were also without a key defender in Kate Vickery last week following an injury against Laharum the week before, although Rachelle Slabbert worked hard to fill the void in goal keeper.

Harrow-Balmoral is the stronger side and should still claim the four

points, but Swifts will be highly motivated.

Kalkee might be a little off the pace on 16 points, but it will be buoyed by its performance against Harrow-Balmoral.

Despite the loss the Kees were within two goals at three-quarter time and will be out to upset second-placed Noradjuha-Quantong at home.

Centre Millie McRae and goal shooter Lucy Brand, 28 goals, won accolades last week and will be key players in round 11, with Brand coming up against her old side for the first time.

She will have her work cut out thanks to a strong Noradjuha-Quantong defence, led by Louisa Vague and Mikayla Treacy last week.

Like most teams, the Kees will struggle to match the height of Bombers shooter Shannon Couch, who shot 71 goals against Pimpinio in round 10 to lead her side to an 87-20 win.

The Tigers again worked hard, with Gemma Walker influencing the midcourt, but are enduring a long year as they try to overcome a lack of depth and a few injuries.

They will meet Natimuk United, which will be looking to claim a solid win after a couple of tough weeks.

The Rams do not have the easiest run home and, with fixtures against three of the top four sides still to

Sudholz has been performing well in the absence of veteran defender Jo Taylor and earned best-on-court accolades for her efforts at the weekend.

Jeparit-Rainbow is in a similar position and will relish an opportunity to play Rupanyup this week after coming off a 28-goal loss to Laharum, 29-57.

Elly Schumann led the way in centre, with Ebony Spokes working hard to combat Demons spearhead Caitlin Dumesny.

Rupanyup fell short of Edenhope-Apsley by 11 goals last week, 37-48, despite the efforts of midcourt-

Hawks, Tigers leading the pack After an 80-point win over SMW Rovers, Tatyoon is still undefeated in this year’s Mininera and District Football League season.

The Hawks are sitting in the top two on the ladder alongside Woorndoo-Mortlake and this week take on Glenthompson-Dunkeld.

With a close race for the top five positions, the Rams see themselves sitting fourth, having only lost two games so far this season.

Their most recent loss was at the hands of Woorndoo-Mortlake by nine goals.

Matthew Lowe, Lachlan Seed and James Lloyd all put their best foot forward getting plenty of the ball, with Sam Chatfield and Thomas Irwin booting two goals each to be the only multiple goal-scorers – however, it was not enough to stop the Woorndoo-Mortlake powerhouse.

Glenthompson-Dunkeld will be looking to these boys once again this week with another tough game at Tatyoon.

The Hawks are continually stamping their dominance on the league with each and every game.

Their many classy ball-movers make it hard for opposition teams to keep up when they are on a roll.

Players such as Mathew Smith, Steven Butler and William Henderson constantly feed the ball forward to the likes of Adrian Pilgrim, who managed nine against the Bulldogs.

Ararat Eagles are hoping to keep their finals hopes alive against Lismore-Derrinallum this week.

This is a case of fifth playing sixth and whoev-

er wins will grab that fifth spot moving into the business end of the season.

Both teams are coming off big wins last week, with the Eagles beating Penshurst by more than 12 goals and Lismore-Derrinallum downing Wickliffe-Lake Bolac to the tune of 19 goals.

This will be an important game for both sides, with both looking to start their finals campaign.

The Demons will look to Riley Browne to do damage in front of goal after booting another eight last week, while looking for Bradley Ward, Brandon Greenwood and Shannon Berriman to lead the team from the front.

For the Eagles, it’ll be up to Ben Robertson, Tulloch Maxwell and Jayden Wright to take the lead and get the ball to Aiden Graveson to put it through the big sticks.

This should be a very hard-fought match.

In other games, Caramut hosts ladder leader Woorndoo-Mortlake, Wickliffe-Lake Bolac plays Moyston-Willaura, SMW Rovers are back at home to take on Hawkesdale-Macarthur and third-placed Great Western does battle with Penshurst, which is sitting ninth on the ladder.

Ladder: Woorndoo-Mortlake 36 points, 341.83 percent; Tatyoon 36, 311.35; Great Western 28, 228.23; Glenthompson-Dunkeld 28, 149.01; Lismore-Derrinallum 24, 155.49; Ararat Eagles 20, 187.99; Moyston-Willaura 12, 98.08; Hawkesdale-Macarthur 12, 49.18; Penshurst 8, 73.73; SMW Rovers 8, 63.86; Wickliffe-Lake Bolac 4, 42.81; Caramut 0, 11.57.

– Jonathan Box

er Emma Downes and the ever-reliable Kayla Woods.

Both teams are finding the going a bit tough this year and the young Saints would have been thrilled to score a win.

Centre Morgan Coventry and goal attack Carlee Feder, 26 goals, shone in the triumph.

The Saints have a bye against Taylors Lake, while Kaniva-Leeor United will return from its bye to play un-

defeated Laharum at Laharum. The Cougars are sitting fourth but there is still plenty of room for movement before the final ladder is set.

This week is a great opportunity for the league newcomer to test itself against the competition yardstick.

Its shooters – including Nikki Hawker up against her old team – will need to fire, because second chances against Demons defenders Rebecca McIntyre and Ema Iredell are few and far between.

Cougars centre Ellen Bennett and her Demons counterpart Liv Jones should embark on a key midcourt battle while Elizabeth Hawker will have a tough assignment on Caitlin Dumesny, who shot 39 goals in a beston-court effort last week.

Results: Edenhope-Apsley d Rupanyup 48-37, Natimuk United drew with Swifts 40-40, Noradjuha-Quantong d Pimpinio 87-20, Harrow-Balmoral d Kalkee 47-35, Laharum d Jeparit-Rainbow 57-29.

End-of-season tangle R

BY DEAN LAWSON

ighto Horsham Demons and Dimboola Kangaroos!

Pardon the well-worn expression, but time is of the essence.

When both sides line up against their respective opponents in round-13 games in Wimmera football on Saturday they will be locked in a week-to-week struggle that appears set to go to the line in deciding which of them will sneak into the finals.

In fact, if results go the way many are suggesting in the next month, you are likely to finish the home-and-away season in a deciding mini-final before the finals actually start.

Dimboola holds on grimly to fifth place on the ladder with healthy percentage, a game behind Horsham Saints and a game ahead of Horsham.

Horsham, in trailing the Roos by four points in sixth spot, is also only marginally behind with percentage.

Forget about fourth-placed Horsham Saints being caught in the fringe mix – their run home looks good enough to provide them with an elimination or even qualifying berth. And seventh-placed Ararat?

The Rats appear well off the pace.

No, the spotlight is definitely on the Demons, who all but ensured Ararat was out of the finals hunt with a 43-point win last week, and the Roos, almost 10 goals better than Nhill last outing.

This week Horsham should be too strong for Warrack Eagles at Horsham City Oval, especially after the topsy-turvy Demons produced a big second half to dispatch the Rats.

The Demons appear to be finding more options to kick winning scores with Rhona Conboy bagging another five at the weekend and Jett Hopper kicking four.

Zippy Brodie Mines led the way against Ararat, alongside Rhys Barber, Ben Lakin and Brody ThomasPope.

Horsham plays Warrack Eagles, which provided a considerable challenge for much of its contest with Stawell last week but lost oomph in a crucial third term and ultimately lost by 66 points.

The Eagles are hardening off against the flow each week and could present a threat to much more fancied opponents in the next few weeks.

On Saturday, Daniel Bell, Dane Stewart and Ryan McKenzie were all prominent players.

Dimboola, meanwhile, maintained an edge it developed early over Nhill, holding off a third-quarter challenge and finishing with a six-goal final term.

The Roos have a good inside game and at the weekend Matt Rosier, Jack Landt and Jayden Lehmann were in good form, while Hayden Walters and Dylan Tarczon, both with four goals, and Brock Landt, three, enjoyed time in front of the sticks.

They will take confidence into a clash with the Rats at Ararat and would want to be on their guard against a team that knows its season is slipping away.

Ararat was in front of Horsham at half time last week and had Baydn Cosgriff, Tom Mills and Henry Shea in good nick. The team can also be hard to beat at home.

The reality is that the best game this weekend is likely to emerge

DON’T ARGUE! Nhill’s Tim Bone fends off Dimboola player Matt Rosier in the heat of battle during a Wimmera football match at Dimboola.

Picture: PAUL CARRACHER between Southern Mallee Giants and Stawell at Beulah.

Stawell is second and the Giants third and the Giants will be chasing an opportunity at home to gain some psychological bargaining chips against a fellow finalist.

The Giants led at every change in a gripping match against premiership favourite Minyip-Murtoa last week but watched a four-point lead transform into a 45-point loss.

The Giants, who had effective players such as Tyler Lehmann, Sam and Lou White and four-goal Nick Dinham, won’t have been happy in being so heavily overrun.

Stawell, of course, takes winning form into the southern Mal-

lee, George Manton and Tom Eckel having kicked four goals each against the Eagles and Jackson Dark and Jack Walker also in good form.

And just when will Nhill fulfill a promise to upset a fancied opponent? Saturday against Horsham Saints at Davis Park?

Perhaps, perhaps not. The Saints are coming off a bye and could either be fresh or stale.

The game represents an opportunity for the winless Tigers who, with Frazer Driscoll, Drew Schneider and Fred Stephan getting votes last week, are rarely disgraced and could find their opponents napping.

Country Today Weekdays from noon on

District football set to sparkle J

BY DEAN LAWSON

ust sayin’– there’s a few pretty good Horsham District football matches fixtured into this weekend.

One is at Kalkee where the homeground Kees line up against premiership favourite Noradjuha-Quantong.

Another is on the wide-open expanses of Rupanyup, where second-placed Rupanyup meets fourth-placed JeparitRainbow.

Oh, and by the way, Swifts, which needs to claim a scalp to establish breathing space in sixth spot on the ladder, is up against fifth-placed Harrow-Balmoral at home at North Park in Stawell.

Anticipation of all three games providing a smorgasbord of top footy would have fans licking the lips in anticipation.

Plenty of eyes will be on how Kalkee responds to a trouncing at the hands of Harrow-Balmoral at Harrow last week.

The Kees were off the pace for much of the contest, regardless of good games from Louie Papst and Hamish Exell and a four-goal game from Ben Lawson.

If the Plainsman can take anything away from the game it will be the sixgoal final-term finish and will hope to immediately bring that into the clash against the Bombers.

Noradjuha-Quantong enters the contest having completed an anticipated one-sided win over Pimpinio.

The Bombers, despite being confronted with a spirited Tigers effort, were too good, winning by 81 points as Dylan Bushby and Cam Bruce kicked four goals between then and Nigel Kelly, Taylor Whitworth and Damian Cameron shone.

The Bombers are favoured to win

NARROW WIN: Natimuk United’s Nathan Koenig and Jesse Wilkinson celebrate a Horsham District football victory over Swifts at Natimuk.

Picture: PAUL CARRACHER but can the Kees come swinging off the ropes?

Panthers and Storm

Rupanyup appears well-oiled for its encounter with the Storm, especially after an 83-point win over Edenhope-Apsley.

Jack Musgrove continues to have a profound impact for the Panthers, kicking nine goals at the weekend and taking his season tally to 47.

He also had Elliot Kelly, Paul Trotter and Charlie Taylor attracting attention

and Blake Turner kicking three goals.

The Panthers take on a JeparitRainbow side that has enjoyed five wins in a row, including a pounding of player-depleted Laharum last week.

The Storm beat the Demons, suffering badly from player unavailability and injury, by 171 points, Jay Kirwood kicking 10 goals, Ash Clugston five and Xavier Oakley four and others such as Brad Hunter and Shane Maslin busy.

What’s it all mean? The PanthersStorm contest should be a beauty.

At North Park, is it a case of ‘watch out, here comes Harrow-Balmoral?’

Four wins on the trot suggest as much for the Southern Roos, who meet a Swifts team that fell at the line against Natimuk United.

Nick Pekin is getting back to his best, kicking three goals for the Roos last game, while Ethan Appleton, Michael Close and Tom Conheady also shone in the win over the Kees.

At the same time, Swifts were in front of the Rams at the first two changes of the game but ran out of

opportunities in the second half and lost by four points.

Jakob Salmi, Scott Carey and Liam Scott were good players for the Baggies and Todd Matthews kicked four goals.

There is plenty riding on the contest at North Park – just ask Natimuk United, which has a fresh sniff of finals action after the win over Swifts.

The Rams should beat Pimpinio at Pimpinio after the efforts of players such as Sam Anson, six-goal Alex Baker, Callum Cameron and Zach Smith.

Nathan Clough, Harry Bigmore and Jed Habermann were best for the Tigers last week and they need the team firing for the side to challenge the Rams.

Games between Taylors Lake and Edenhope-Apsley and Laharum and Kaniva-Leeor United round out the weekend.

Kaniva-Leeor United would have been pumped with a 106-point win over the Lakers, while the Lakers would have been far from impressed.

The Cougars produced a swag of goal-kickers in the win with Chris Bryan bagging seven, Dylan Collis kicking five and Jock Maddern four.

Kayne Councillor was also a prominent player.

Available players dug deep for Laharum last week, Brett Ervin and Ben Peucker trying to rally the troops, and the team might continue to struggle.

Taylors Lake will obviously want to bounce back, but so too will Edenhope-Apsley, which suggests the clash at Dock Lake Reserve will be hardfought.

Matt McCulloch and Andrew Phelan were best for the Lakers against the Cougars, while Jeremy Kealy and Nic Langley collected primary votes for the Saints against Rupanyup.

Phantoms on march A

BY DAVID BERRY

lifelong ambition to play finals in Victorian Volleyball League is within touching distance for Phantoms premier men on Saturday when they take on Yarra Ranges in a double header in Bendigo.

Phantoms sit in fourth position on the ladder with five games left to play.

Two wins against seventh-placed Yarra will secure a historic finals position, one that has been eight years in the making.

The season has been one of steady improvement for the premier men as a new-look team slowly but surely gets used to playing as a unit.

At the start of the year the talk was more about who wasn’t fronting up than who was, with players of the calibre of Ashby Smith, Nick Adamson, Matt Gordon, Paddy Haythorne, Adrian Fox, Zac Hermans and Lachie Parkinson – all premier division players, opting not to play for various reasons.

When you lose seven players of such quality it was easy to just go through the motions and think you are just making up numbers.

So, it was more about building a new team and one that wanted to play, rather than dwelling on what

could have been, and with the new younger players that were given an opportunity, no expectations were placed on the group.

The first few games against Renegades and Eastside Hawks showed how close the team was to the competition pacesetters, when it took it right up to the two big teams.

Even though both games resulted in straight-sets losses, sometimes you can learn more about a team in a loss than you do from a win.

The team was more than competitive and had its chances but couldn’t quite deliver – there was hope.

Two wins against Mazenod squared the ledger, then lockdown hit and the season was thrown into turmoil.

Final six

Volleyball Victoria made the decision to declare a ‘wash out’ for missed matches and then to make it fair for all teams, changed the finals series from a final four to a final six.

When the competition resumed the team lost an epic five-setter to Renegades, which gave the team the belief it could play at the level needed.

Two wins against Dandenong saw the team jump to fourth with a four-win three-loss record and

now the biggest day for this group awaits on Saturday.

The players have become a tightknit group and not having to make constant changes from week to week has seen them settle into their roles.

For Volleyball Horsham members involved in the team – Matthew and Nathan Berry, Cam Robinson and Jack Hannan – they have all played their roles to perfection so far, which is giving confidence to all involved.

The group had a solid training session last week in Bendigo, which will set it up perfectly for this weekend.

It is two games the group is looking forward to with great anticipation and excitement.

With the changes made across the board by Volleyball Victoria, all Phantoms teams are in with a chance they might not have thought possible before lockdown.

It certainly makes for a huge day for the club as a whole going into Saturday’s matches against Yarra.

On the domestic front, there is still time for teams and individuals interested in participating in the winter season to register that interest, by emailing details to info@ volleyballhorsham.com.au.

FEEL THE RUSH: Julie Azzopardi enjoys the thrill of trail running through Grampians National Park as part of a Wonderland Run Grampians event in 2019.

Grampians backdrop for runners Keen trail runners are busy training for a ‘gruelling’ 60-kilometre marathon across the picturesque terrain of Grampians National Park next month.

The marathon is the main event in a series of trail races during a two-day Wonderland Run Gariwerd event on August 28 and 29.

Race director Rohan Day said the popularity of the event, which featured 20km, 36km and 60km runs, had grown significantly since its inception in 2015.

“The first time round we had about 370 entrants,” he said.

“Now we’re sitting on 530 entrants just for the Sunday, which means we’ll likely go past our 2019 numbers of about 1100 across the two days.”

Mr Day said he hoped the event would create an economic benefit for Halls Gap and district with the tourism it generated.

“For every entrant there tends to be another person in town with them, so if we have 1100 entrants, we’ll probably double that figure,” he said.

“It has an impact on tourism, where runners will book accommodation for the weekend.”

The 60km event involves an early morning start at Roses Gap, heading back to Halls Gap along Mount Difficult range.

Other events will allow runners to see major icons such as Elephants Hide, Grand Canyon and The Pinnacle and descend around Sundial Peak.

The sweeping landscape and unique bushland of Grampians National Park provided Mr Day with inspiration to create the event in 2015.

Mr Day, who has competed in ultramarathon and marathon events across Australia, said training for big runs required utmost persistence and regular runs each week.

Saturday activities include a 2km and 8km run for all age groups.

key cricket issues

BY SAXON SOUNNESS

P

on work experience

roviding a COVID-safe playing environment and developing junior participation are likely to be priority issues for Horsham district cricket officials at an approaching annual meeting.

Horsham Cricket Association president Chris Hopper confirmed both issues would attract considerable debate at the meeting later this month.

Officials hoped yesterday to announce the meeting date, which would give clubs two weeks to prepare for the gathering.

With the COVID-19 pandemic still a significant influencing factor, Mr Hopper spoke about what players, administrators and spectators could expect for the upcoming 2021-22 season.

“COVID-19 is high on our list of priorities.

With what has happened recently in NSW, we anticipate very similar protocols here this season,” he said.

“I expect there to be an easing of restrictions around spectators. When it comes to regulations around hygiene, shining the ball and playing conditions, expect something very similar to last season.”

While working out ways to cope with COVID-19 might be the number-one priority at the meeting, Mr Hopper stressed the im-

portance of the association exploring junior development.

“We will keep pushing out the same message to clubs that they should be invested in a strong junior program. This is because clubs with strong juniors often have better foundations,” he said.

“We want as many kids as possible to be playing the game.

“We are happy with current participation levels but want to keep pushing the game more to those interested.

“Another point is that the game has developed beyond being just a boys’ game. It is well and truly also a girls’ game. We want to see female participation increase as much as possible.”

Mr Hopper also made a point about a recent switch to a MyCricket online scoring system, and the varying levels of success different clubs had experienced.

“Everyone has been improving the more they do it. Clubs are having different levels of success depending on their tech ability,” he said.

“We will continue to support clubs at all times.

If Cricket Victoria makes other changes, our support for clubs in understanding and adopting them will be a priority.”

The cricket season will likely start on the second weekend in October, with officials hoping to avoid lockdowns interrupting the season.

“A squad of 48 will be finalised later, combining players from the greater western regions.”

Mr Muldoon said there had been no pressure on the young players during the practice matches.

“We have avoided putting selection pressure on them because we want them to play to the best of their ability,” he said.

“There is nothing wrong with not being selected for the next stage, because everyone has different stages of development.”

Mr Muldoon spoke about the importance of talented youngsters from the region relishing opportunities for their football development.

“Players have already developed the fundamentals at this age,” he said.

“They receive high-level coaching at training to help with their skills, improving their ability as football players.

“This is an opportunity to get exposure to a higher level of football and understand what occurs in pressure situations they might not experience through club football.”

Start of something special Leading Wimmera-Mallee under-15 footballers have a chance to further develop skills if they win selection in a representative squad.

Twenty-five footballers have completed two practice matches as part of a selection process for an inter-regional team in a V-Line Cup tournament.

The V-Line Cup offers promising young footballers the chance to prove themselves against top-level competition, with future selection in elite under-18 NAB Cup pathways on the line.

Program leader and AFL Wimmera-Mallee area manager Jason Muldoon said V-Line Cup selection was often the start of a Greater Western Victoria Rebels development pathway process.

He said the under-15 competition exposed players to high-level playing conditions while showing off their skills to selection scouts.

“This is often the introduction for these kids into the talented pathways program,” he said.

“These opportunities allow players to highlight what they can do in front of Rebels coaches and provide them with an enjoyable experience.

Racing for the future Wimmera Kart Racing Club president Remo Luciani, centre, with Phil Smith, Melbourne, left, and Brocklan Parker, Portland, prepare for the fourth round of a Victorian Country Series in Horsham this weekend. Two days of racing, likely to attract about 200 competitors and swell Horsham’s population by up to 2000, will be the last at Dooen before a major overhaul of the circuit. The club is awaiting a final tick of approval to modernise and lengthen the track to attract more go-kart events to Horsham. Spectators can watch the action at the weekend free of charge.
